(The dance become more of a vertical embrace, and then they kiss)
CRUSHER: Jean-Luc, if I didn't know you better, I would think you were playing games with me.
PICARD 2: You're sorry you came tonight?
CRUSHER: I didn't say that.
PICARD 2: Good. Because I'm delighted you did. But, perhaps we should call it a night.
(He opens the door for her)
PICARD 2: Goodnight.

40 – The Killing Ground
Five levels up, Nassau's captain was standing on the bridge wing. His normal battle station was in CIC, but the ship was not moving, and he figured that this was as good a place as any to watch. Over a hundred missiles were inbound from the northeast. As soon as raid warning had been received an hour earlier, all of his boat crews had set to lighting off the smoke pots set on the rocks in this so-called anchorage. That was his best defense, he knew, hardly believing it himself. The point-defense guns at the comers of the flight deck were in automatic mode. Called R2D2s for their shape, the Close-In-Weapons-System Gatling guns were elevated twenty degrees, pointing off to the threat axis. That was all he could do. It had been decided by the air-defense experts that even firing off their chaff rockets would do more harm than good. The captain shrugged. One way or another, he'd know in five minutes.
He watched the cruiser Vincennes to the east, steaming in slow circles. Suddenly four smoke-trails erupted from her missile launchers, and the missile firing cycle began. Soon the northeastern sky was a solid mass of gray smoke. Through his binoculars he began to pick out the sudden black puffs of successful intercepts. They seemed to be coming closer, and he noticed that the missiles were, too. And the Aegis cruiser could not get them all. Vincennes emptied her magazines in four minutes, then bent on full speed to race between a pair of rocky islands. The captain was amazed to see it. Someone was taking a billion-dollar cruiser into a rock garden at twenty-five knots!

O'NEILL
Closing the door.
KERRY
Yeah, deeply symbolic.
O'NEILL
Really?
[Kerry sighs, smiling slightly at O'Neill.]
KERRY
I really like you. We're good together.
[O'Neill stands.]
O'NEILL
Yes. We are. But…
KERRY
You have issues. It's okay, we all do. There's just one big one in particular that I don't think I can love with… live with. I need to get out before I get more involved. We can still work together, can't we? I'd hate to have to ask for reassignment. This is really important to me. We agreed this would never affect the job.
O'NEILL
We did.

For Immediate Release

August 12, 2004
Remarks by the President and Mrs. Bush at Victory 2004 Dinner
Santa Monica Municipal Airport
Santa Monica, California
6:54 P.M. PDT
There are still -- you know, there are still enemies who hate us and they are plotting to harm us -- that's the world we live in -- and we've got a lot to do here at home to protect us. I'll just give you some thoughts about some statements that have been made about our staying on the offense in the war on terror. My opponent says that going to war with the terrorists is actually improving their recruiting efforts. I think the logic is upside-down. I think that shows a misunderstanding of the enemy. See, remember during the '90s, the terrorists were recruiting and training for war with us long before, long before we went to war with them. They don't need an excuse for their hatred. I think it's wrong to blame our country for the anger and evil of those killers.
AUDIENCE: Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

Fall of the Western Roman Empire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fall of the Western Roman Empire (also called Fall of the Roman Empire or Fall of Rome) was the process of decline in the Western Roman Empire in which it failed to enforce its rule, and its vast territory was divided into several successor polities. The Roman Empire lost the strengths that had allowed it to exercise effective control; modern historians mention factors including the effectiveness and numbers of the army, the health and numbers of the Roman population, the strength of the economy, the competence of the Emperor, the religious changes of the period, and the efficiency of the civil administration. Increasing pressure from "barbarians" outside Roman culture also contributed greatly to the collapse. The reasons for the collapse are major subjects of the historiography of the ancient world and they inform much modern discourse on state failure.
