		As for the episode in question, it's entitled "Point of No Return," and the role of Lady Morella was written specifically for Majel.
		One last point I forgot to mention was that even for the US, there has never yet been a situation where we as an entire species stood on the brink of extinction by an alien race.
		So PoNR is at the dead center of the piece that propels you toward the last third, like the second act in a three-act play (which was my structure for this).

	Point of No Return (1993)
		I've never seen "La Femme Nikita", so when I saw "Point of No Return", I had no point of reference by which to judge the merits of the second film as a worthy re-make of the non-American original.
		I can suspend my disbelief for 2 hours and just enjoy the incredible premise for what it is. I thought the supporting cast was fine, including Dermot Mulroney as J.P. As the film went along, I was drawn in and was never tempted to switch channels (I saw it uncut on some premium channel).

		Again on "No One Said," her voice struggles to stay in a comfort zone and finds its way into the dangerous territory of "cringing." "Butterfly" is a wonderfully written song that could have been better if Faith Evans or Syleena Johnson were singing it.
		There is nothing truly bad on POINT OF NO RETURN, but there is sometimes a lack of truly memorable material, which does hold Shareefa from bringing up her talent to the next level.
		When I first read that Shareefa's Disturbing tha Peace label described her Point of No Return album as a "soul classic", I rolled my eyes and was like, "Yeah, right." Then my wife picked up this album and as I listened to it, I saw that it really wasn't that bad.

	The Modern Word - "The Point of Return" Review
		In The Point of Return we are introduced to Dr Dam when he suffers the first onset of the illness that will cripple him, and then go back in time to the rather prosaic situation of Dr Dam collecting his pension cheque.
		The Point of Return is a powerful and beautifully written novel and deserves to be appreciated in its own right, but I would like to conclude with a few observations on the marketing of “Indian” fiction to Western audiences.
		Therefore, the cover of The Point of Return is adorned with the cliché of the wall with peeling paint, a visual tie to the Picador paperback edition of Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children, which is intended to convey something of the faded elegance of the Raj.

	MMI Review: Point Of No Return (Site not responding. Last check: )
		I'm not kidding: "Point of No Return" not only has the same directorial slant and dialogue PLUS near-identical reconstruction of all the original sequences, but it even has the same damn camera angles on many of the shots.
		The whole point of "La Femme Nikita" seemed to be that if a dame puts on a little lipstick and fluffs up her hair, she has most of what she needs as the ideal professional assassin.
		Fonda is such an intelligent and attractive presence onscreen that she genuinely deserves a role that she can sink her teeth into, but maybe "Point Of No Return" will lead to one or two of them, eventually.

	A Point of No Return
		Passing through the restriction point is "like Caesar crossing the Rubicon—; it's the point of no return," says Steven Dowdy, an HHMI investigator at Washington University in St. Louis.
		Cells that pass the restriction point and duplicate their DNA must face yet another checkpoint at the end of the G2 stage, when the duplicated DNA is examined for accuracy before the cell is allowed to enter mitosis.
		Both checkpoints are regulated by cdc2, the protein encoded by one of the genes that Hartwell identified in yeast.

		LONDON (AP) -- Global warming is approaching the critical point of no return, after which widespread drought, crop failure and rising sea-levels would be irreversible, an international climate change task force warned Monday.
		It warned of "climatic tipping points'' such as the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets melting and the Gulf Stream shutting down.
		No accurate temperature readings were available for 1750, the report said, but since 1860, global average temperature had risen by 0.8 percent to 15 degrees Celsius.

		Rauch, it seems to me, has missed my central point in "Love and Marriage." It is true that marriage itself, and not merely women and children, domesticates men.
		But my point is that marriage is only able to do so by building upon the underlying dynamic of male-female sexuality.
		But the point is, our increased tolerance for homosexuality is inextricably bound up with the cultural changes of the sixties — and is by no means trivial in its effects.

		The administration of U.S. President George W. Bush has said there's no proof that global warming is causing a change in the weather.
