  • At the 2003 Institute for Career Advancement Needs Women's Leadership Conference, Dr Mae Jemison talked briefly about her appearance as Lt. Palmer in TNG's 'Second Chances.'

    "I cannot point to one or two experiences that had the most impact on me," Jemison said. "Life is a continuum of experiences. Everything you do in life builds on your other experiences if you are paying attention. Going to space was a high point and I would go again, but I also got to meet Lt. Worf on 'Star Trek.'"

  • Novotny's Antique Gallery in Pasadena, California is offering several items of Robert Picardo (the EMH) memorabilia. Further details are available at the actor's official site.

  • Over at Star Trek: Hypertext, Jamahl Epsicokhan has posted his review of Enterprise's 'Dawn.' "Here is an agreeable but derivative outing that is reminiscent of TNG's 'Darmok' ... except without the truly interesting linguistic puzzles and the push for higher-minded understanding that made that show a classic. 'Dawn' is the simplified, mainstreamed version of 'Darmok' -- the junior-high edition rather than the collegiate one." The episode scored 2.5 out of 4 in the full review.
