Walked in to Pure Hockey to get new shoulder pads for my daughter. 3 minutes left in Game 6 of Flyers/Blackhawks. Standing in line, I got to watch Niemi rob Carter all over again.

Got out of there before OT, at least

Hotties keep wanting a taste of the Live Long and Spocker after getting to know him for a while, so it's not like the whole subdued emotions and logic thing is a surprise. Then they run off with anthropologists or that guy at the Vulcan Institute you don't need to worry about.

And he's got game, for example "Nor I a work of art, madam"

So it's pretty much guaranteed that the gears don't match the ears, right?

My understanding is he's a farmer now. Do you think he has any parthos? I fucking love that stuff, but my girlfriend was the only person I ever met who could cook it worth a damn

So I was talking to this guy, right? He and some buddies of his were chatting with me late in my shift one night. I asked him what he was in town for. Apparently he was in his homeworld's navy, and one of their captains and crew had turned pirate. Knocking over cargo ships, worst thing they did was apparently carpet bomb a small town of 100 people or so who wouldn't give them enough tribute. Awful stuff but pretty par for the course for these militaries who recently discovered warp.

Now he and his shipmates had been ordered to track them down and arrest them. Last hurrah before a deep space mission, try to track down the pirates and bring them to justice, who knows how long it will take.

Hey Everyone,

As you may know, quite some time ago Prof. Attardi at U. Pisa wrote an excellent piece of software for extracting raw text from Wikipedia dumps, WikiExtractor. Prof. Attardi is retiring, though. He and I corresponded some years ago about Italian annotation, so I suppose I am a known quality, and accordingly he has handed off maintenance of the software to me.

https://pypi.org/project/wikiextractor/

In the past few weeks, I've cleaned up or improved several outstanding issues with this library, and I'm pleased to announce a new version is now available on pypi.

Everyone points out how awkward it is that Uhura needs the whole bridge crew to dig for translations in Klingon when the ship was flying past an observation post. (Which somehow didn't recognize the silhouette or warp signature of the Federation flagship, but whatever.)

Clearly the problem isn't that Nomad erased Uhura's knowledge of Klingon, or that this universe's Uhura had never learned Klingon, or whatever. The problem was just that it had been about 20+ years since she'd actually spoken it.

Anyone who's learned a second language knows that it can fade after years of disuse. I literally forgot the word for "forget" in Spanish because it had been so long since I'd said it.
