I have a few ideas you may want to consider.

You mentioned gummi worm gagh, and I thought of some other food items you may want to include as well. There's hasperat (spicy burritos), jumja sticks (a possibly frozen fruit concoction on a stick), and yamok sauce (maybe a form of soy or yum yum sauce). I know that most people aren't big Enterprise fans, but if you could include a pecan pie or two (Trip's favorite) or maybe a dessert with pineapple (Reed's favorite), that would be cool as well. You can always search for "Star Trek recipes" and you're guaranteed to find something if you're at a loss for ideas.

Now this one is a little bit on the expensive side, but you may want to consider getting the Star Trek Scene It? game, either the regular edition or the deluxe one. I've found it to be a pretty fun party game, as you can work in teams to answer questions. It also has a bunch of questions you can answer without ever having seen any of the shows/movies. For instance, they'll show you a clip from one of the shows, and then ask you a question about the clip you've just seen. However, they do have trivia questions that only someone who's seen the shows would know, so you may want to keep that in mind.

You may want to make a few PADDs (made out of cardboard or something similar) to place around the room with various things written on them. You can either put simple things like "Live long and prosper" on them, or if you're up to doing a bit more, you can look up some various captain's logs from the different shows and put some of the text from those on them. Alternatively, if you're feeling adventurous, you can put your own "missions" on them.

You can easily make a fake bat'leth or two out of some cardboard, and then paint them and hang them up. If you make them out of a somewhat more durable substance, you can even have some one on one battles! Though I'm not responsible for any decapitations :)

Depending on how creative you feel, you can make some different phasers and tricorders. These kinds of phasers and tricorders could probably just be made from foam or balsa wood and painted accordingly.

I think it'd be cool to have Geordi's VISOR somewhere (which you can make with a headband), and maybe either Spock's Vulcan lute or Picard's flute (made with some combination of foam, string, wood, etc.).

Finally, you could possibly have a little something to represent each of the captains/shows there. One idea would be to include something to represent each of the captains' favorite pastimes: a baseball for Sisko, a book of Shakespeare for Picard, a water polo ball for Archer, etc. Alternatively, each of their favorite drinks could be present: coffee, earl grey tea, passion fruit iced tea, etc. I know these are kind of small things, but sometimes the smaller details can make the whole thing come together.

Obviously, I realize you probably won't use all of these ideas, either because of monetary or time-consuming reasons. I just wanted to give you a variety of things to choose from.

Good luck with your party!

There are days going to work that I like using "The Enterprise" and "Leaving Drydock" from Goldsmith's Star Trek: The Motion Picture soundtrack or Enterprise Clears Moorings from Horner's Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan soundtrack. When I was going to grad school a couple of years ago one of the things I did with extra student loan money was pick up all the soundtracks from all the TOS and TNG crew movies and music from TOS, TNG, and DS9. I've loved listening to them all at different times.

If you're on a budget though, I'd recommend the Star Trek Album. It's the best bang for your buck with music from the movies and TV shows.

Hi. I apologize for not having replied much, much sooner. Haven't been to treknobabble for awhile. (Hope you get a chance to read this)

Fraga is just one out of many examples of what happened in Spain during the Spanish Revolution of 1936-1939. There are many books and youtube videos on the subject some of which mention the attempt to abolish money by the anarchists and syndicalist, who set up worker control over industry and agriculture. George Orwell wrote a first-hand account of his experiences during this period in his memoir Homage to Catalonia. http://www.reddit.com/r/AnarchistQuotes/comments/1s70h7/orwell_on_anarchism/

Orwell doesn't really explain how the anarcho-syndicalist economy works, though, he does give this little anecdote... "Tipping had been forbidden by law since the time of Primo de Rivera; almost my first experience was receiving a lecture from a hotel manager for trying to tip a lift-boy." George Orwell - Homage to Catalonia.

For a more comprehensive overview Sam Dolgoff's The Anarchist Collectives and Jose Peirats The CNT in the Spanish Revolution go into much greater detail. http://www.amazon.com/anarchist-collectives-self-management-Revolution-1936-1939/dp/0914156039/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1395875444&sr=1-1&keywords=the+anarchist+collectives

"Money has been abolished. Neither the standard currency in Spain (the peseta) nor local money is used in transactions within or between any of the collectives of the county or district." The Anarchist Collectives by Sam Dolgoff

http://www.amazon.com/CNT-Spanish-Revolution-1/dp/1604862076/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1395875479&sr=1-1&keywords=the+cnt+in+the+spanish+revolution

"The distribution of foodstuffs and other items was handled by the cooperative and no money changed hands. The individual simply applied to the store for what they needed." The CNT in the Spanish Revolution by Jose Peirats

I also recommend the following link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XN5TbqzxQBg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPl_Y3Qdb7Y

The first video discusses the abolition of money at 21:45 and the second at 55:31. "Enjoy it." - Capt. Picard.

George Takei has a fragrance called Eau My. It has a clean, fresh scent. I really like it.

If a side character leaves you wanting more, then the writers and actor did their jobs perfectly.

If you want more, Andrew Robinson did write a book focusing on Garak

Here's the original thread. The maps are from Star Trek Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library. Some better images can be seen with a Google Image search.

Star Trek: Starship Creator

Amazon has it for $28.89, but it probably won't work on windows 7.

Edit: There was a sequel too: (Star Trek: Starship Creator Warp II)[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_Starship_Creator_Warp_II]

is this a good point to start with?

He actually did two albums.

LeVar Burton wrote a book! http://www.amazon.com/Aftermath-LeVar-Burton/dp/0446605018

Secret Fighting Arts of the Warrior Race

Not sure if it has the mok'bara, but it is a martial arts book. Unfortunately it is out of print and a collector's item.
