For the shows, if action isn't that important then definitely TNG. Some episodes of TNG have action but most are more about exploring a concept. For the last couple seasons there's a lot of them finding new/different life forms but in the earlier season they explore a lot more in relation to political ideology and ethics. Once you see the Ferengi and what they represent you will know exactly what I mean. For them, it is fairly obvious, for others, not so much.

TNG is simply one of the best scifi shows on TV. Its effects are a bit dated, but its stories are still good. Star Trek movies imho aren't as good as the series.

Edit: not saying they're not worth watching. Wrath of Khan and First Contact in particular are pretty decent.

Which chess piece has the most occurrences of being bit?


I'd say pawns, simply because there are a lot more of those.

My theory is that in the vast majority of cases where a chess piece gets bit, the biter just grabs one at random and bites it. Probably because the biter is a cat, a dog, a baby, someone who just doesn't care. If we go with this theory, statistics clearly show that pawns get bitten the most, even if we compensate for larger pieces being more prone to being randomly grabbed. So unless a king is 8 times more likely to get bitten then a pawn, the pawn wins (or loses if you don't like being bit)

sorry, the pond s not a chess piece..

The imp of procrastination is an awful companion, and half the world is in a Sisyphean battle against his bedevilments. However, it is not merely the gluttonies of gratification which sustain the habit. A nervous perfectionism, self-doubt, or shyness may encourage holding out for optimal moods, or moments of inspiration, before the task is given attention. And let us not deny that for some, a mood of panic, and a sensation of danger produce a special vigour in the mind comparable to the effects of adrenaline in the body. For long-term procrastinators, the habits of lawlessness become through practise a transcendent law of efficiency. It is the means by which they manage their lives with a minimal ratio of stress to productivity.

Procrastination is of course a grave sin in a world which values industry, and those who procrastinate are generally less useful than those who do not. Procrastinators are academic as well as career underachievers, and their habits often condemn them to a station in life lower than those with otherwise inferior talents. They are the unsung losers; disappointments to their parents, unregarded by their peers, frustrations to themselves. Yet for all that, procrastinators are generally easy and wholesome people. Their companionship is enjoyable. Their tempers are serene. Their claims upon the patience and tolerance of others make them more patient and tolerant. The gravest matters, the weariest ordeals are squelched into a shrewd shrug. In short bursts, they are capable of achievements which appear herculean to those who do not live on emergencies.

These observations, if they are just, point me toward the conclusion that there need not necessarily be a uniform way of dealing with procrastination. You can be a hero and try to obliterate it entirely from your life, or you can dance with the devil and become an expert in the art of living with it.
