i would guess getting the earth to destroy itself with its own weapons would skirt around any shadow proclamation rules outlawing their behaviour.

Damn that Prime Directive!

I think it's high time they showed us literally anything from "Academy." Footage would be great, photos would be acceptable.

The low end of the merchandise continuum seems to be their biggest weakness. This higher-detail, higher-end stuff is plentiful, but the prices are unreal.

Yeah let's face it if you're going to own a model Gorn, this is the one you want.

They seem to be playing things close to the vest for now, but I'm sure that will all come out in time.

It's such a shame, too - I really want the Schooners to exist.

That's a mighty thin schedule.

I'm not thrilled that the Bombers are off again this week - hopefully they don't accrue too many injuries after this, because the schedule's going to be a grind.

The bottom line is that I have historically liked Fontaine as an MLA. I think her concern - obstructed sightlines from the stage - is understandable.

But I can't fathom expressing those frustrations in that manner. There's really no excuse. Whether that's worth a resignation...I don't know. I wouldn't be mad if she stepped down, but I'm also not necessarily mad that she hasn't. I guess time will tell whether she learned anything.

There are so many other purposes.

policies and legislation that undermine competitiveness, delay project development and disproportionately harm specific provinces and territories without any quantifiable benefits to the natural environment

What.
