I used to think Laurel will become the Canary, but now I'm not so sure.

Minuet is not the best example.
After the Binar's tampering was removed, Riker was never able to recreate her. (Which I'm guessing he tried quite often, as it was a "very special" holoprogram.)

Picard's scene was clearly from the second part of "Chain of Command".

Hey now, I said before the accident.

…the villains wear balaclavas…

That comment about O'Brien blowing up watermelons has given me an idea for a gimmick to use in next week's commentary. But I'll need some help. What would be the futurist name for "Mythbusters", and who would be "Adam" to O'Brien's "Jamie"? (My first thought was Bashir, but Garak would add a different dynamic.)

Yeah, I thought it was more like Jean-Luc "Four Lights" Picard, where the episode ends with something that shows the character is taking the first step on the road to recovery (even if we never see what would be tedious, show-stopping months of therapy).

Imagine this twinkie represents the inside of a normal computer.
The twinkie at Meyrin would be ten meters long, and weigh approximately 300 kilograms.

The only problem with that article is the failure to use the word "simulated" in the figure captions. Some knucklehead is going to look at that video and think it is a recording of an actual black hole being created.

The best part was the web site that was set up some time before Media Day.

Part of the problem is that both Oliver and Slade have put Shado on an ideal pedestal. There might be a chance for them if they could learn to remember her as a person, instead of an abstract goddess.

In the boat, Slade admitted, on a rational level, that Oliver wasn't to blame.
The important thing: "I don't care".

"You want to hurt me, Slade?
How about my girlfriend, that you saw in the picture I had on the island."

(Diplomacy knocks out Diggle to avoid being shot in the face.)

She spent a lot of time with Barry Allen.
He might have been a fast mover, even before the lightning bolt.

I think Slade is also lining up Thea and Moira.

Heh, now I'm imagining some future season, where Slade is trying to recover from his rage by becoming a pupil of Roy.
"What do you mean, slap the water in the bowl?"
"I dunno. I think there was some reason do it?"
(Slade remembers that it is Shado's training technique, gets angry and starts destroying the room.)

So did Oliver, except more quietly (and while his mom was watching).

"I don't care."
