Leonard Nimoy, known to hundreds of millions of people as Spock, died recently at the age of eighty-three. My brother was a huge fan of Star Trek, the television show, and is a gifted impersonator of movie and television celebrities. In high school, he founded the student club STUD—Star Trek Underground Devotees. STUD meetings were essentially showcases for my brother to perform his original wacky versions of Star Trek episodes in which he imitated with uncanny verisimilitude every member of the crew of the starship Enterprise. His Spock was virtually indistinguishable from Nimoy’s Spock.

A GLASSY-WINGED SHARPSHOOTER has been discovered in Marin County. This newspaper's favorite insect, the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter kills grape vines. It first appeared in the grape-growing regions of the state 25 years ago when strict inspection methods against it taking hold in Napa, Sonoma and Mendocino counties were enacted.
