Diaper

A diaper was a type of absorbent garment usually worn by infants to contain their feces and urine.
While Sim was seemingly a baby, his diaper was changed by Doctor Phlox, who believed that the contents of the infant's diaper might make a good fertilizer for his Orsic fern. During a conversation in which an apparently seventeen-year-old Sim expressed his interest in T'Pol, he felt that her declining his invitation had something to do with the fact that he was "different," figuring, "I guess it must be weird, being with someone like me. Five days ago, I was wearing diapers." ()
In an argument between William and Kyle Riker about Will's mother, Kyle argued that Will was "barely out of diapers when she died!" and that he "hardly knew her." ()
Following repeated offers by Montgomery Scott, in 2369, to assist Geordi La Forge in engineering, which ultimately resulted in La Forge telling Scott that he was "in the way," the angry Scotty retorted that he "was driving starships while [La Forge's] great-grandfather was still in diapers." ()
In a similar vein, during their encounter in the Nexus, James T. Kirk remarked to Jean-Luc Picard that he "was out saving the galaxy while [Picard's] grandfather was in diapers" after the latter reminded him of his duty as a Starfleet officer. ()
After deciding he wanted to mate with Kes in 2371, Neelix made his announcement to her by telling her to "order the diapers, we're about to become parents." ()
That same year, when an infant Jem'Hadar was brought aboard Deep Space 9, Benjamin Sisko got a look on his face that he hadn't had "since Jake stopped wearing diapers." Jadzia Dax listed the things that Sisko didn't miss about Jake being a baby "listening to him cry, changing his diapers, worrying when he was sick," but Sisko still found himself nostalgic for those times. ()
In 2373, when Constable Odo initially declined assistance raising a newfound infant Changeling, Captain Sisko reminded him that it was "always nice to have someone around to help change the diapers." ()
In 2378, Harry Kim gave Tom Paris and B'Elanna Torres a diaper with a Starfleet emblem embroidered on it as a gift for their baby shower. Kim claimed that garment was "standard issue." () Later, while contemplating their future following their return to Earth, Torres figured that Paris would probably take the first piloting assignment that came along and leave her home to change the diapers. ()
In an alternate 2378, Linnis Paris noted that she was far more comfortable with a molecular scanner than she was with a diaper. ()

Dickerson

Lieutenant Dickerson was a male Human Starfleet officer who lived during the mid-23rd century. He served in the operations division aboard the under Captain James T. Kirk, during a historic five-year mission that starship undertook. He served as the ship's chief security guard in 2269.
That year, Dickerson led the honor guard detachment to the transporter room to announce the arrival of , after Lincoln was discovered by the USS Enterprise near the planet Excalbia. Dickerson readied his phaser team and ordered them to "set for heavy stun" prior to Lincoln's transport, then blew his boatswain's whistle to announce the arrival of Lincoln, once transport was completed. ()
== Appendices ==
=== Background information ===
Dickerson was played by actor Arell Blanton.
In the script, where this character was instead named "Dickenson", he had "white 'honor guard' belt and boots, holds a traditional bos'n's whistle on gold chain." In the filmed version, he wears the white belt, along with a white lanyard and black boots. The script also indicated that, during his exchange with Montgomery Scott, he was "obviously uncomfortable about the whole thing."
Dickerson appeared to be among the highest echelons of security officers aboard the Enterprise at that time, described in the end credits as the "chief security guard" and in the script as the "security chief".
Though Dickerson wore a Starfleet dress uniform reused from a previous episode, where the decorations and braid at the collar represented a lieutenant commander, Dickerson was only ever addressed as a "lieutenant", rather than a "commander". (It should be noted, however, that some lieutenant commanders, such as Shelby and Deanna Troi, have occasionally been addressed as "lieutenant".) Based on indicators to the contrary, in ultimately clipped words from the script, Dickerson addressed Lieutenant Commander Scott as "sir".

Difficulty level

A difficulty level was a measurement of how hard a holoprogram or other diversion was to complete successfully.
In 2367, Geordi La Forge played a game while travelling to an artificial intelligence seminar whose difficulty level increased with each successive question. ()
In 2368, Alexander ran Worf's Klingon calisthenics program at the novice difficulty level. ()
In 2369, Worf noted that Jean-Luc Picard's having increased the difficulty level of a training program was the reason for his slowness. Picard assured him he did so because their upcoming mission was going to be even harder than that. ()
