-1 | Kirk's stunt double | |||||
1 | 2 | 1.1 | Where No Man Has Gone Before | Stunt double | The Enterprise is travelling near the edge of the Galaxy when it discovers an object floating in space. Beaming it aboard they find that it is an old-style ship recorder, something vessels would jettison in case of an emergency. Since it is damaged Spock surmises that the vessel it belonged to was destroyed. The recorder is triggered and begins transmitting its records. The officers go to the bridge where Spock scans the message. The recorder was jettisoned by the SS Valiant some 200 years ago. Kirk informs the crew about the discovery and meets Dr. Dehner, a psychologist who is aboard to study the effects the stresses of shipboard life have on Starfleet personnel. Gary Mitchell tries to flirt with Dehner, and is strongly rebuffed - prompting him to refer to her as a "walking freezer unit". Spock interprets the rest of the Valiant's message, reporting that the ship was thrown clear of the Galaxy by a magnetic storm. Although the record is damage he finds repeated references to ESP capability in Humans, including searches of the computer for information of the subject which he classifies as being almost frantic. Dehner claims that there are some Humans who can see the future or manipulate objects with their minds, though this is never very powerful in Humans. Spock continues with his report - he finds records of deaths aboard the Valiant, more ESP research, and then a self-destruct order by the captain. Although concerned, Kirk decides to proceed with his mission to probe beyond the edge of the Galaxy and takes the ship ahead. They discover a massive energy barrier and are able to penetrate it, but the ship is badly damaged and both Mitchell and Dehner seem to suffer some physical distress as a result. When Mitchell opens his eyes, they have become silver in colour. Kirk takes the ship back on impulse power, with the warp drive damaged beyond repair. Spock does some research and finds that both Mitchell and Dehner have been recorded to have a high ESP rating, with Mitchell the highest. Others killed during the encounter with the barrier suffered damage to a specific region of the brain. Meanwhile Mitchell is reading in sickbay. He claims to feel fine - better than he ever has, in fact. But his manner seems odd, arrogant and almost threatening. After Kirk leaves he begins to read at an extraordinary rate, digesting whole pages in an instant. Spock is monitoring this, and he and Kirk assign security to keep an eye on Mitchell. In sickbay Dehner talks with Mitchell and he begins to demonstrate unusual abilities - causing his life signs to blank out at will, showing his as dead on the monitor. He also reveals that he has not only read by perfectly memorised countless books. Lieutenant Kelso arrives for a visit, reporting on the sad state of the engines. Mitchell warns him to check the starboard impulse engine packs, explaining that there is a problem which they have missed and which will cause the entire deck to explode if they don't correct it. Kelso checks and reports to Kirk that Mitchell was indeed correct. The officers discuss the situation, with Scotty reporting that the controls in engineering started working on their own a short time ago - and each time it happened, Mitchell could be seen smiling on the monitor. Spock suggests that Mitchell's power is growing exponentially, and that he will inevitably come to see Humans as insignificant compared to himself. They decide to hear for a nearby automated outpost on the planet Delta Vega, hoping to cannibalise it to repair the warp drive and strand Mitchell there where he can do no harm. They successfully repair the engines, but Mitchell kills Kelso by using his powers to strangle him, and escapes his confinement. He knocks out the others and finds that Dehner has also developed silver eyes - she is undergoing the same transformation, just more slowly since she had a lower ESP rating in the first place. The two escape the station together. When Kirk recovers he takes a phaser rifle and goes after them. Mitchell and Dehner begin converting part of the desolate surface of Delta Vega into a garden-like environment. Mitchell is declares himself a God, with Humans suitable only to be his worshippers. He tries to kill Kirk when he finds the pair, but Dehner rebels against his arrogant attitude and attacks him with her powers. He survives the attack and strikes back, killing her, but his abilities are temporarily drained. Kirk fights with him, and finally uses the phaser to blast a large rock off a cliff side, killing Mitchell when it falls onto him. Back on the Enterprise, Kirk grieves over the loss of his friend as the ship heads back on warp drive. |
2 | 37 | 2.3 | Wolf in the Fold | Hengist's stunt double | The Enterprise is visiting Argelius II, a planet whose philosophy heavily emphasised hedonism and pleasure. Kirk and McCoy are accompanying Scotty on shore leave, enjoying some female entertainment in a local bar. Scotty recently suffered a near-fatal accident caused by a woman, and there has been some concern that he harbours a deep seated resentment of women as a result. The shore leave is an attempt to get him over this feeling. The therapy seems to work, and Scotty accompanies one of the dancers home through the quiet night. However, shortly afterwards the woman is found stabbed brutally to death, with Scotty standing over the body paralysed with shock, holding a knife in hands covered with blood. Scotty claims to have no clear memory of exactly what happened. Mr Hengist, the Chief Administrator of the planet, demands that Scotty be confined whilst the crime is investigated. However the planet's leader, Prefect Jaris, suggests that his wife Sybo may be of use. She has some form of empathic ability which he thinks may be of value. Kirk has Lt. Tracy beam down from the ship with a psycho-tricorder, which will be able to probe Scotty's memories of the event and determine his guilt or innocence. As she prepares to administer the test they discuss another suspect, the dancer's former fiance Morla. He was jealous of the attention her dancing brought from other men, a reaction the Argelians consider to be shameful. Morla is questioned but claims that he had nothing to do with the crime. As the testing of Scotty begins the lights black out and there is a scream; when the lights come on again Lt. Tracy has been stabbed to death and once again Scotty is standing practically over the body. With the only other entrance to the room locked, it appears certain that he is the killer. Prefect Jaris insists that his wife carry out a kind of seance. She appears to enter a trance-like state, speaking of a great evil, a hunger which can never be satisfied. She calls out several names, "Beratis", "Kesla" and "Redjac". As the seance reaches a crescendo the lights black out - and as they come back on Sybo lies dead, and once again Scotty is apparently the killer despite having no clear memory of what happened. Mr Hengist is completely convinced that Scotty is guilty, but Kirk convinces Jaris to beam up to the Enterprise so that Scotty can be subjected to computer analysis - this will provide a definitive answer as to his guilt or innocence, regardless of any mental failings. The test shows both Scotty and Morla to be innocent of any wrongdoing. When Scotty talks of feeling a cold, evil presence in the room when the lights were out Kirk begins to suspect some form of creature may be responsible, something that feeds on negative emotions and attacks women to cause them. Although Hengist finds this answer incredible, the computer confirms that it is possible and Jaris seems open minded. The computer cites creatures native to Alpha Carina V who subsist on the emotion of love; this being apparently subsists on terror. It is suggested to be incorporeal, existing as a formless being but capable of taking solid form at will - much as the Mellitus cloud creature of Alpha Majoris I that can change from gaseous to solid forms. They run the names spoken by Sybo through the computer and find that Beratis and Kesla are the names of mass murderers of women on Rigel IV Deneb II respectively, neither of whom were caught. Redjac is a mystery until the computer checks variations and finds 'Red Jack', another name for the infamous Jack the Ripper from Earth history. Further analysis shows a string of such murders throughout history - and the trail leads directly towards Argelius, with the Beratis killings happening on Rigel IV less than a year ago. Further, the knife used in the killings on Argelius is of Rigellian design. Kirk notes that Hengist is from Rigel IV, and arrived about a year ago. As suspicion turns on Hengist he becomes agitated and attempts to flee, only to be knocked down by Kirk. However, he dies on the spot. The ship's computer begins to go out of control, telling the crew they will all die - apparently the Hengist creature has abandoned his physical body and infested the computer in an attempt to terrify the crew. Kirk has McCoy dope up everyone in the crew, putting them into a state of mild euphoria. Spock orders the computer to calculate the value of Pi to the last digit, an insoluble problem which will suck up most of it's resources. Hengist is forced from the computer and returns back to his body, but he is injected with the same drug the crew have taken. Although the entity cannot be killed in the conventional sense, Kirk has it beamed into space on a wide dispersion - scattering it across space and effectively destroying it. |
2 | 39 | 2.2 | The Apple | Native stunt double | The Enterprise is visiting the planet Gamma Trianguli VI. A landing party finds the planet to be a paradise, with a planetwide warm climate. However, a call from Scotty on the ship brings trouble - the ship is experiencing a minor problem with the antimatter pods, possibly related to abnormalities in the magnetic field of the planet itself. Spock's tricorder detects underground vibrations coming from all directions, vibrations which he thinks are artificially produced. As the landing party scouts around they detect a life form nearby, apparently somebody watching them. They proceed towards a nearby village, but along the way the planet offers up a few surprises. A rock explodes when tossed to the ground; a plant fires poison darts; a freak storm suddenly blows up and Spock is struck by lightning. It appears that Gamma Trianguli VI is not so pleasant a place after all! Meanwhile on the Enterprise, the problem becomes worse - the antimatter pods have become completely inert, as if some external force had extinguished them. Without main power the ship is all but helpless and unable to beam the landing party up. They reach the village, although two of the landing party are killed on the way by the planets strange dangers. Kirk manages to capture the native who is watching them, and they demand to know what is going on. The man claims to be the "leader of the feeders of Vaal." They continue on to the village with the man, who is named Akuta. He agrees to take them to Vaal - which proves to be a giant stone head reminiscent of a reptile. The head is surrounded by a powerful forcefield, making any approach impossible. They go back to the village to rest. Kirk notes that there are no children there - prompting confusion from the natives, who apparently have no idea what children are. Vaal, they say, has forbidden men and women to touch one another, and there is no reproduction allowed - much to McCoy's disgust. The Doctor scans the people and finds every one of them to be in perfect health, without any sign of ageing amongst them. Vaal calls the villagers, and they bring supplies of food to place inside the head - the forcefield apparently allowing them in to feed their god. Kirk ponders whether Vaal might become weaker if it is denied the regular influx of food. Kirk and McCoy seem determined to destroy Vaal, claiming that it is stifling the right of the natives to a "free and unchained environment" and any chance to grow and develop as a culture. Spock warns that they are simply applying human standards to a culture which they may not apply to - the villagers surely have the right to choose a system that clearly works to provide them with long term stability. Scotty reports that they are detecting a steady decrease in Vaal's power readings, possibly a result of the food being used up. He is working to boost the output of the ship's impulse engines, though this will take a good eight hours to accomplish. In not much longer than that the ship will fall into the atmosphere and burn up. In the village, two of the natives observe Chekov kissing one of his female comrades and become curious as to what it is like. This apparently angers Vaal, who communicates with Akuta to tell him to kill the landing party. Vaal provides instructions on how to use violence, and the natives mount an attack. However, although one of the Enterprise crew is killed the natives are quickly defeated. Scotty manages to complete his modifications and boost the ship into a slightly higher orbit, but he only gains an extra hour or so. Kirk decides to starve Vaal in an attempt to weaken it, and then orders the ship to direct a phaser barrage at the force field around it. Vaal is forced to expend its remaining energy to defend against the attack, and becomes inert. Without the field affecting the ship, full power is quickly restored. Kirk tells the natives that the Federation will provide them with assistance until they can cope with life on their own. Although Spock expresses some concern with their actions the Captain is happy at the outcome, and the ship proceeds on course. |
2 | 44 | 2.7 | Bread and Circuses | McCoy's stunt double | The Enterprise discovers the wreckage of the SS Beagle, a survey vessel missing for six years. The sensors indicate that the wreckage originate at a nearby planet, the fourth in Star System 892. The ship proceeds to the planet to search for survivors, with Kirk hoping to locate the Captain, R.M. Merik, who was a friend of his. On arrival they intercept television broadcasts from the planet indicating that the civilisation there is a close parallel to the Roman Empire on Earth, only in this case the Empire never fell but continued to progress technologically until it reached a level comparable to mid 20th century Earth. But the Empire retains the brutality associated with ancient Rome, including televised Gladiatorial combat. The crew witness such a combat and notice that the defeated 'barbarian' is William B. Harrison, the flight officer of the SS Beagle. Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to investigate the situation, arriving a short distance outside the city the broadcast was coming from. Unfortunately they are quickly captured by a renegade group calling themselves the Children of the Sun; a religious cult who apparently engage in sun worship. Former champion Gladiator Flavius Maximus is amongst their number, a man who renounced his violent ways when he joined the group. Kirk convinced the group's leader, Septimus, that the landing party is from a ship offshore. He explains why they are there and Spetimus suggests that Merik could be Merikus, the First Citizen. Septimus asks Flavius to lead Kirk and his officers into the city in disguise. Unfortunately they are soon spotted by the police and captured. Taken to the city, Kirk manages to convince his captors to allow him to meet Merikus. It is indeed his old friend R.M. Merik, captain of the Beagle. Merik takes Kirk to Proconsul Claudius Marcus, who to Kirk's surprise knows all about the offworld origins of Merik and Kirk. Merik explains that when the Beagle was lost his men were stranded on the planet and left with the choice of assimilating or being killed. Those who refused to assimilate were forced to fight in the Gladiator games until they were killed. Claudius demands that Kirk contact the Enterprise and order the crew to beam down to their own fate, but Kirk gives the coded command Condition Green - signalling that the landing party is in trouble but forbidding any rescue attempt. With this, and the planet's status as a pre-warp society, there is virtually nothing that the Enterprise can do to help. Claudius is surprised by Kirk's resistance, and orders Spock and McCoy sent to the games to be killed. Kirk is made to watch as Spock and McCoy fight Flavius and another Gladiator. Spock is easily able to defeat his opponent thanks to his superior Vulcan physique, but McCoy only survives because Flavius holds back. Kirk feigns amusement at the spectacle, pretending not to care if his officers are killed, much to Claudius's surprise. Merik chimes in that as a Starship commander, Kirk is the very best Humanity has to offer - far more capable than himself, as he tried and failed to achieve such a post. In the end Spock overpowers both opponents, which is against the rules of the combat. Claudius spares them, thinking to use them as further leverage against Kirk. McCoy and Spock are put in a cell, where Spock rebuffs McCoy's attempts to thank him for saving his life. McCoy angrily accuses Spock of being so desperate to hide his emotions that he's terrified of actually living his life fully. When Spock refuses to engage with the conversation McCoy wearily admits that they are both just worrying about Kirk. Kirk, meanwhile, is being kept in far more luxurious surroundings. Claudius assures him that in the end he will have no choice but to compromise - and a beautiful slave girl, Drusilla is sent to seduce Kirk as part of the "carrot" part of the carrot and stick approach. The Enterprise picks up a broadcast announcing Kirk's execution in the arena. Scott, frustrated at his inability to intervene directly, decides to scan the power sources on the planet and simultaneously disrupt them all for a few moments. He hopes that this demonstration of the power of the ship might give those below some second thoughts, whilst not counting as a direct intervention. Kirk is taken to the arena for his execution. He manages to escape thanks to the power blackout, though Flavius is killed in the process. He frees Spock and McCoy from their cell, but the police arrive and engage them in combat with swords. Merik uses a communicator he has stolen to contact the ship and tell them where the officers are, and is stabbed and killed by Claudius. As the guards open fire on Kirk, Spock and McCoy the three officers are beamed away just in the nick of time. Back on board, Spock muses on the parallels between Earth and Planet 892-IV, although he notes that ancient Rome did not have Sun worship. Uhura, who has been monitoring the planet's broadcasts, chimes in to say that they have all misunderstood the situation. The rebels do not worship the Sun, but the Son - the Son of God. Kirk marvels that 892-IV had Ceasar and Christ both, and wonders what it would be like to watch the inevitable spread of Christianity on the planet. With that, the ship departs. |
2 | 46 | 2.5 | A Private Little War | Kirk's and Apella's stunt double | Tyree's planet was a tranquil paradise when Kirk visited thirteen years ago. But now the villagers are armed with muskets and determined to slaughter the hill people - and Kirk wants to start dishing out weapons to even things up. | |
3 | 64 | 3.3 | The Empath | McCoy's stunt double | The Enterprise arrives at the star Minaria, due to go nova in a short time, to evacuate a Federation research outpost which has been monitoring the system. On arrival Kirk, Spock and McCoy beam down to find the facility deserted. They choose to remain on the planet when a giant solar flare forces the Enterprise to leave the system for several days, confident that the atmosphere will protect them from any radiation. No sooner has the ship left than the landing party is beamed to a chamber deep underground where they encounter Gem, a mysterious alien woman with empathic powers but no language capability. A pair of aliens called Vians appear and explain that they are testing Gem to see if her species is worth of salvaging from the effects of the nova. Gem is capable of using her mental abilities to absorb the pain and injuries of others into herself; the Vians intend to torture the Enterprise officers in order to find out whether Gem will cure them despite the suffering it will cause her. If she is ultimately willing to sacrifice herself for others, the Vians will take this as a sign that her life is worth saving. The Vians put the Enterprise officers through a series of ordeals, with the three practically fighting amongst themselves to be the one who will be tortured in place of their friends. Ultimately Gem does indeed take all of their suffering upon herself, ending her own life. Declaring themselves satisfied, the Vians return the Enterprise officers to their ship and the Enterprise continues on its way. |

*** TODAY's PHOTO GALLERY BELOW ***
Ride Summary
All the talk prior to today's GW ride was about Black Caviar! The world's best sprinter was in Adelaide today chasing her world record 20th consecutive victory. Did you see the race? What a fantastic win in front of a sell-out crowd!
We got to the track a little earlier today to farewell some of the Gawler Wheeler regulars who this weekend are riding the 290 kms to Port Elliott and back. They are Juz, Pete, Michael, Dave and Andrew. We received progress reports during the day and are pleased to advise that they made it safely to Port Elliott at 1.47pm. A big 140 km ride today with Juz texting on arrival ".. about to go hunt food…..want fooooooooood!" Well done today crew and safe riding back tomorrow!
During the ride brief, following the overwhelming success and positive feedback last week of THE WHISTLE concept, Wilson expanded the initiative and presented two new whistles to yours truly and TEC Mick. The concept is all about enhancing the GW experience during our re-groups. We also welcomed newbie Craig, aka "CJ", along for his first GW ride.
On a very crisp morning the other 47 riders left the starting gates for the scheduled 60km ride which took us down the Stuart O'Grady Bikeway. Whilst it was a little cool there was no wind and no rain so we knew that it would be a great ride. The first 23km leg along the SOB was a blast, and inspired by Black Caviar, was a flat out sprint for most riders at speeds of 30 – 40 kms. However unlike Black Caviar we needed a well-deserved re-group at the end of this leg.
On the SOB if you escape the wind on the down track you normally cop it on the way back. That was not the case today….yippee! All the way back to Jaspers Café the conditions remained perfect with no wind and the sun caressing us as we zoomed along. It was great to see many sub-groups form and riders helping each other along. Many PBs were recorded this morning with many average speeds of over 30kms for the 60 km ride. WELL DONE everyone…another brilliant GW ride just like Black Caviar's!
NEXT WEEK: We will be holding two concurrent rides. One is on a brand new undulating route through the Barossa Valley over a mammoth 105 kms. The other ride will also take us through the Barossa on a shorter 60km route. YOU are welcome to attend….just pick the ride that suits you best! Full details will be posted on AC Events soon!

Next Gawler Wheelers Event Details (check the following links)
thanks John..
Next goal ??? Hmmmm 100k ride when and if I am ready for that.
Oh gawwddd now I have a BIG decision to make.
You wouldn't want to mis this one Terry. As Frank said, its just beautiful countryside out there. Love cruisng through it in the car. Will be even nicer on the bike when you can also hear and smell what's happening around you. I'm certainly not going to 'bust my gut' on this one! Its too good to waste. That would be like buying a bottle of the best the Barossa has to offer, and trying to knock it off in 30 seconds!
And you get your 100 at the same time. What a fortnight - first the 30km/hr average, and then the 100km! JUST DO IT !!! ( If you can average 30.8 over 60km, you can do a 100. But maybe a little slower than 30.8!! )
AAAAArgggggggggggggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bl__dy Frank must have been reading my mind over the past few weeks lmao...yer John I know where your coming from but geezzzzz average will be 25 maybe less for me if I do go on it..and that Gomersal bugga eeewww. but then again life is too short to worry bout if only's in your life..Have cracks in my rear wheel so see what happens during the week...
You smashed it, mate. Didn't even know you were there until the rest stops!
And when you a couple of thousand K's away it's great to hear what has happened! Can't wait 'till we're back home so I can get back on the bike!!
Thanks for all your company out there today Carl. I reckon we worked together really well, with another rider whose name I have forgotten. Sorry. I met too many new GWs today, thanks to the new steed I was riding.
When we caught that big bunch I was surprised to see my sparring partner Terry, burried away incognito, unlike Black Caviar. He was wearing the same colours as the other riders, with his new GW strip. But like the great horse, when I went around, wide on the track and wasting precious energy, he let out a snort, and a laugh, and pulled out to chase me down.
I knew he had caught me when I could hear him singing, right on my hindquarters, just a few seconds later. My spirit was crushed, just as those two jockeys out in front would have felt, when they heard those famous hooves pounding up behind them today. To rub it in Terry started started his b...y singing again, as he did last week, when he sailed past about 400 metres before the finish line!
Had another Black Caviar moment in a group of four, two - by - two formation, as we were galloping up towards the bend, before coming into the home straight ( the SOB ). I had boxed this fellow in on my left. Sorry, forgot your name too. Was it Allan? But it was Colin and David on the front row. I said something like "Hey, I've got you boxed in nicely Black Caviar! I think your winning streak has come to an end mate!" And with that David eased out to the right, and the 'Black Caviar' shot through the gap to take the lead, hamming it up for all it was worth. We all had a good laugh. It was a clue as to how the great mare escaped the 'box' and flew past the two leaders this arvo.
And thanks for partnering me again in the home straight Carl. You are a real gentleman, helping me out to get me over the finish line with an average over 30. Almost got there - 29.8. Enjoy your ride tomorrow. Weather looks great again.
Hey David, help me out please. It wasn't me that jumped through the gap, it was 'Black Caviar'. Who was that guy? He had a real turn of speed there. And a great sense of occasion with how he waved his arms and cheered himself into the lead. Went passed you and Colin like you were standing still. Smaller chap he was, with longish hair. Colin told me his name at Jaspers, but I have forgotten. For now he is just the 'Black Caviar' to me!
David, thanks for your nice comment. But that was my first ride on the 'new' bike. I spend a lot less time changing gears now with that modern trigger index shifting, or whatever its called. And it is about 5 or 6 kilos lighter than the old one. So it made a big difference. And I feel a lot happier about how it fits and feels now, after losing a bit of sleep over the first few days after buying it.
yeh, John i believe that was me you and Carl all working together.. but you were a bit crook i believe? nice work to hold on till the end of the SOB and congrats on the overall average. Kudos to you
Thanks Brett, and sorry about forgetting your name. I've got to get that wheel magnet back to you too! Now I just have to catch up with the 'Black Caviar'.
Ha ha, yes, was feeling a bit 'off'' at the end of the SOB. Interesting what the body does to let you know you are over doing it. Happened to me on the first ride with GW too, up at Freeling. But its not till I got off the bike, both times, that I realized there was a problem. I wonder if anyone else has experienced it too? Hey Frank, we need to schedule these rest stops where the are some public conveniences nearby:)
John.. i'm unsure if it was you myself and Carl were helping on the southern direction on SOB, were you the flemmy one? and i said i'd much rather be infront of you while you spit out your loogys? lol.
the other suspect might have been Barry.. but to whoever it was is welcome and hoping they get well soon :)
also... there's no rush on that magnet mate

NO, the very first James Bond adventure to hit the big screen, starring Sean Connery as everyone's favorite woman-chasing, martini-drinking, gadget-wielding British secret agent, 007. Can Bond save the world from total destruction at the hands of the insidious Dr. No? Take a wild guess …
Quench your thirst with our Bond drink special, The Honey Ryder (available at the snack bar), and enter our FREE RAFFLE for a special Father's Day prize package filled with Bond-related dvd's, books and other Q-approved surprises! Doing time in Her Majesty's Secret Service was never quite THIS exciting!
Loft Cinema is at 3233 E. Speedway, east of Country Club.
Released in 1962, DR. NO was the first James Bond movie to hit the big screen (kicking off a worldwide Bond frenzy that continues to this day), and it still remains one of the best, serving as an entertaining reminder that the Bond series began (in keeping with Ian Fleming's original novels) with a surprising lack of gadgetry and big-budget fireworks.
Super suave Sean Connery, who will perhaps always be considered the ultimate embodiment of Fleming's globetrotting, perpetually randy hero, was just 32 years old when he won the role of Agent 007 … and has anyone ever looked better sporting a tuxedo, martini glass and handgun?
In his first cinematic adventure, James Bond is called to exotic Jamaica where a colleague and secretary have been mysteriously killed. With an American CIA agent (Jack Lord, pre-Hawaii Five-O) in tow, they discover that the nefarious criminal Dr. No (Joseph Wiseman) is scheming to blackmail the U.S. government with a device capable of deflecting and destroying U.S. rockets launched from Cape Canaveral. Of course, while embroiled in the intrigue and danger of trying to save the U.S. space program, Bond manages to take time off from his exploits to enjoy the company of a few gorgeous women, most notably the very first "Bond Girl," the white bikini-clad vixen, Honey Ryder (played by Ursula Andress), who makes one of the most spectacularly sexy entrances in movie history.
Directed by Terence Young (who also helmed the subsequent Bond films From Russian With Love and Thunderball), DR. NO is a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek adventure that set the tone for the rest of the popular series, a 22 film (and counting) ode to a man who shall forever retain his "license to thrill."
And Happy Father's Day to all fathers (biological, adoptive, step, grandfathers, great grandfathers, foster, fathers-in-law, etc.)!

IRIS certification in record time
WAGO is one of the first companies in the field of electrical connector technology and automation to receive the IRIS certification relating to the new international railway standard.The IRIS quality standard (International Railway Industry Standard) was defined by the UNIFE, the European association for the railway supply industry, and can be compared to the ISO/TS 16949 standards known from the automotive industry. However, the IRIS standard also places a strong emphasis on the monitoring and control of projects and processes. IRIS is accepted and demanded by all the large railway manufacturers. This means that, in the future, railway industry suppliers who rely on WAGO products will be spared the expense of customized audits and assessments.
The implementation of the new standard and successful auditing at WAGO were considerably faster than planned, since the WAGO management system already exceeded the requirements of DIN ISO 9001 even before the certification was granted.
The successful award of IRIS certification is an important part of WAGO's Quality Strategy, whereby WAGO supplies high-quality, certified products and services for the railway industry as well as for other industrial and building service applications.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 1:23 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2013
By Ken Sugiura
One of Georgia Tech coach Brian Gregory's most frequent observations this season has been that four or five possessions can decide a game. He had reason again Tuesday night to bring it up.
The Yellow Jackets dropped a 56-54 decision to Florida State when Seminoles guard Michael Snaer drove to the basket for the game-winner as time expired. Left behind, once again, were frittered possessions on both ends of the McCamish Pavilion floor.
After taking a five-point lead early in the second half, Gregory said, "we didn't play, again, unfortunately, with the poise and sense of urgency that you need in games like this when you're playing a team that is tough and physical and has a big-time player."
Two days after fighting for a 66-60 win over Virginia in which they stayed honed in for the duration, a few lapses on the defensive end cost the Jackets against FSU. More than Snaer's buzzer-beater, Tech's inability to defend a screen-and-roll play midway through the second half tugged at Gregory.
Rather than rolling off their men to help, Tech defenders stayed with their marks, enabling FSU center Boris Bojanovsky to roll unimpeded for dunks. Starting at the 14:34 mark until 11:16 remained, FSU scored on six consecutive possessions, enabling the Seminoles to flip from a three-point deficit to a two-point lead. Rather than possibly packing onto the lead in front of a boisterous late-night crowd, Tech found itself in a back-and-forth tussle until the end.
"Just our coverage on that (screen-and-roll) wasn't as tight as it needs to be," Gregory said. "You can look at a lot of different things, but our coverage on that particular play probably costs you the game."
For the game, Florida State shot 20-for-40, Tech's poorest defensive field-goal percentage game of the season. With 10 fewer shots than the Jackets, the Seminoles made one more basket. FSU's defensive play, tight and aggressive, gave Tech problems. Logging heavy minutes, the Jackets' starting five shot a combined 12-for-37 after making 17 of 36 against Virginia.
At the halfway point of the 18-game ACC schedule, Tech is 12-9 overall and 2-7 in the ACC. FSU, like Tech a team with a reliance on freshmen, is 13-9 and 5-4. Tech is four points from two more wins, the overtime loss to Virginia Tech and a three-point defeat to Clemson.
"I know, being a senior leader, that I'm going to keep pushing, keep telling these guys it's never over," guard Mfon Udofia said. "We'll keep fighting and practicing hard each and every day so we can be the best team possible. If I'm going to go out, I'm going to go out strong and lead by example."
Udofia was involved in three critical plays at game's end. Down 54-51, Udofia took possession from guard Chris Bolden after he missed a jumper and scrapped for the rebound. Udofia banked in a 3-pointer to tie the game at 54 with 1:02 to play. After Snaer turned the ball over by mishandling a pass on the perimeter with 42 seconds remaining, Udofia missed a 3-pointer with 33 seconds to go, allowing the Seminoles to set up for the last shot with a timeout at 19.9 seconds.
The ball came to Snaer, with Udofia pressed up on defense. Near midcourt, Snaer shuffled his pivot foot in an apparent traveling violation and then began his charge to the basket, at which point Udofia fell backwards. Help didn't arrive quickly enough and Snaer drove the lane, flipping a shot off the glass as time expired. After the game, FSU coach Leonard Hamilton said he thought Udofia slipped, but Udofia said he was pushed.
"He pushed off and the referee had a chance to make a call and he didn't make the call," Udofia said.
It was Snaer's third buzzer-beater in two weeks and his fifth since last January.
Said Gregory, "We should have had better help on that. That's it."
Tech showed merit, though, in being in the game at the end. The Jackets fell behind 13-0 in just over seven minutes at the game's start, committing four turnovers, missing five shots and giving up six second-chance points.
However, Tech began to assert itself with considerable assistance from the bench. Subs Brandon Reed, Pierre Jordan and Stacey Poole scored nine of the next 11 points for Tech to help the Jackets draw to within 15-11. The Seminoles answered with a 7-2 run, finishing with a Snaer 3-pointer with the shot clock running down, before the Jackets went into a frenzy.
Tech scored nine in a row as center Daniel Miller assisted on two baskets, scored a third on a dunk in transition and forced turnovers with help on double teams away from the basket. Bolden's two free throws tied the game at 22 with 3:29 to go, a little more than 10 minutes after the Jackets had fallen behind 13-0.
Tech closed the half with a vicious Miller dunk over two Seminoles with five seconds remaining on a feed from Udofia. Reed's nine points at the half, all on 3-pointers, were as many as he had scored in a game since a nine-point effort against Chattanooga Jan. 2.

Super Steph Series pt 7- Steph and Cass: Best Friends 4evah
I love Steph. I love Cass. And their friendship is my favorite one in comics. They're just very different- Cass is quiet, Steph can't shut up, Cass is super super good at martial arts, Steph is always messing up, Steph clowns around, Cass is serious- and yet the same- they're both very determined, good hearted people, they both have daddy issues, they both don't quite fit in....and they benefit from each other. Steph benefits from Cass's knowledge and training, and Steph teaches Cass about interacting with people, and being a teenage girl. Also, Steph is the only one probably, who wasn't ever afraid or in some way intimidated by Cass's traumatic past. She was able to LAUGH with Cass about it. The two are just so perfect and awesome together.
So lets see them being awesome, shall we? (Batgirl #20, 21, 26, 27 and 28, as well as Last Laugh #3)

There is a decidedly ironic and humorous typo on the Northland website that will probably be corrected soon, but Dissidens has been quick to provide a satirical commentary. (A screen shot of the post is below. Notice the last line: "grow thin Christ likeness.")
It is our desire that this endeavor will create and strengthen interactions between students and staff members, leading to opportunities for Gospel-centered conversation and mutual encouragement toward grow thin Christ likeness.
Thin Christlikeness. Certainly this is probably an honest albeit unintended assessment of what results from discipleship while watching March Madness. Though clearly the ambition is nobler and the aspiration true growth in Christ, it does afford an opportunity to discuss the culture of American Christianity, particularly in the places where future leaders are being trained.
I must say that while I am an enthusiastic amateur bracketologist currently being destroyed by my wife and eleven-year-old daughter and barely ahead of my five-year-old son, I find myself wincing in agreement with Dissidens, a person that I very much enjoy disliking. I personally think (and don't we all want to know what I personally think?) that the whole month of activities surrounding the NCAA tournament sounds like a lot of fun for a bible college campus, and if I were there I would probably be first in line to try a half-court shot for a free sweatshirt or whatever the prize may be. I have always had a huge addiction to free anything.
I take no umbrage with fun. Even at bible college.
But, let's be real. If anything shows "thin Christ likeness" it's the American evangelical bible college gaggle of spirituality. Bible colleges are too often the epitome of the church youth group in which the naive youth director feels it is his calling in life to prove to young people that they can be Christian and have fun too.
My college years were spent in both a secular environment and in bible college. While in Toulouse, France I clung to Christian fellowship and discipleship was all about prayer, resisting the wiles of the Devil, pursuing purity, witnessing in hostile environments, fasting, and spiritual affections. In bible college I metamorphosed from borderline mystical ascetic to class clown, becoming class and student body president and advancing frivolity with all the zeal of Saul of Tarsus. I was a Christian and having fun too.
Discipleship on the bible college campus was hanging out at the professors' homes eating pizza and enjoying a few more liberties than were allowed in the men's dormitory. Before I went to bible college and while I was in a secular environment I shared the feelings of Jim Elliot.
No ascetic, Jim enjoyed to the full all that he believed God had given him to enjoy, but he felt it wisest to exclude from the sphere of activity anything which had the power to distract him from the pursuit of the Will. . . . He believed Christ to be utterly sufficient for the entire fulfillment of the personality, and was ready to trust Him literally for this.
But as college kids often do, I got drunk. I got drunk on American silliness and in my delusion actually thought it sounded very cool to justify every recreation as a "fun and discipleship." Jesus said, "If you would be my disciple, take up your cross." Giggle, giggle.
Thin Christlikeness will get offended by this, of course. It will be assumed that anyone who agrees with Dissidens on this matter is cynical, bitter, judgmental, and anti-smile. They might even assume that I am against all the festivities at my alma-mater surrounding the NCAA Championship. This, however, is a simplistic analysis. I've actually filled out two brackets and am intensely engaged in this hugely entertaining month. (I've picked Michigan State to go all the way.) But I think we do ourselves a disservice when we insist that we have to put a spiritual spin on everything: fun AND "discipleship."
Serious minded Christians actually think you can have fun as a disciple, but that fun is not discipleship. One has famously said that there is no difference between the sacred and the secular. The problem is that there is.
We also do ourselves and our young people a huge disservice when we take sacred concepts and insinuate frivolity. The word "chapel" is meaningless now. Why not call it what it is: "school assembly"? But when you have "chapel" (understood by most in the world as a place of, or designated service for, worship) in which the sports guys discuss their brackets it undermines true seriousness about real discipleship and worship. And are all students required to go to the silly chapels?
I say this as one who personally orchestrated circus atmospheres that burst through the previous ceiling of frivolous "chapels" at Northland. I didn't have good sense then. And I still don't mind a good party. But I think 19 year olds aren't really understanding what the real world is like where, in most places, discipleship is not fun.
I can't help but wonder if there are not some students on these bible college campuses that are like Jim Elliot, the student at Wheaton many years ago:
My spirit is all a ruffle again at the vast, inexplicable complexities of humankind, and the careless, ineffective manner we fool 'fundamentalists' use in answering the cry of hearts which cannot understand themselves.
We American Christians cannot understand ourselves. But we understand March Madness. And we have just enough knowledge of ourselves to know that if discipleship is not fun we probably want none of it.

Online Learning
Hebrew College welcomes students who wish to pursue graduate degrees to further their professional careers in Jewish education and Jewish studies, as well as those who wish to study for its own sake. The college offers degrees/certificates through courses which take place both here on campus, and via distance learning. The information below is meant to give you an introduction to our approach to online learning, and to encourage you to consider this as an enjoyable way of engaging the material.
Hebrew College has been a pioneer in online learning since 2000, and was the first to offer a degree (Master of Arts in Jewish Studies) entirely through distance learning around that time. Fundamentally, we aim to reduce any intimidation or trepidation that students may have toward this mode of learning. The platform we use is called Schoology, which has an attractive "social media-like" interface and is both intuitive and easy to learn. Students have individual accounts, modify their own privacy settings, upload a photo to their personal profile page, and manage their account through a private password.
Our courses are interactive, and instructors aim to form relationships with students that are very close to, while different from, those formed in a "bricks and mortar" classroom. Although much of the course content is delivered through asynchronous (not real time) activities, we do employ synchronous conversations, video chatting and "hevruta" beit midrash (paired learning sessions between and among students and instructors) as a means of achieving our goal.
In a typical Jewish studies course, the structure and culture is similar to that of a graduate-level academic course, using a lecture and discussion format. Typical class size is anywhere from eight to 15 students (some Jewish education classes have as many as 25 students, but this is the exception). There are weekly units of study, and a discussion board is set up for each topic, along with selected readings or texts that relate to the topics for that unit.
Students listen to posted lectures (either in text format or as audio or video files) created by the instructor. Students respond to one another, often furthering their knowledge and understanding of the topic as much through these conversations as from the formal lectures themselves. Instructors post their responses both to individual students and to the class as a whole.
Text-based Jewish studies courses (utilizing Hebrew language) are conducted asynchronously as described above, but require weekly hevruta learning sessions through video chat with the instructor "present" for at least part of the time.
"The classes at Hebrew College are so well-organized that even someone who's not very tech savvy can navigate through the online school with ease. I highly recommend this incredible avenue of Jewish education to anyone interested in seriously learning the numerous rich subjects that make up our heritage."
— Daniel Getz, online student

He conducted the only interview Dizzy Gillespie wanted a copy of. He hosts an annual commemoration of Martin Luther King, Jr., that brings listeners to tears with music befitting of King's words. From Duke Ellington to Joshua Redman to new horns on the block, Eric Jackson of WGBH-FM is the undisputed champion for jazz in Boston, a cultural treasure whose calm, college-professor voice explains backstories that further illuminate the music. Such richness did not protect him.

Online comic strip hopes to improve girls' health
In a preliminary study a few years back, researchers found that an educational, online comic strip geared toward 8- to 10-year-old black girls helped them eat better and exercise more. But there were only 80 girls, and they all self-reported, and it's unclear whether the fact that they were paid skewed the results.
Now, the program's creators are set to really put the comic strips to the test when they launch a larger study, with 400 volunteers and their parents, to test the Web-based program. Called the "Food, Fun, and Fitness Internet Program for Girls," the … Read more

Tojiro In the end while the Hobbit films haven't been "Bad", per say, they probably would have been better if there was only two of them.

When the lazy days of summer arrive and your child's schedule is packed with swimming, camp, and family vacations, it can be a challenge to find time for reading.
But kids' reading skills don't have to stop growing just because school's out. Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun:
Explore your library. Visit your local library to check out books and magazines that your kids haven't seen before. Many libraries have summer reading programs, book clubs, and reading contests for even the youngest borrowers. There are often incentives, such as a free book upon completing their summer reading lists. Young kids will feel extra grown-up checking out books with their own library card.
Read on the road. Going on a long car trip? Make sure the back seat is stocked with favorite reads. When you're not at the wheel, you can read the books aloud. Get some audiobooks (many libraries have large selections) and listen to them together during drive time.
Make your own books. Pick one of your family's favorite parts of summer — whether it's baseball, ice cream, vacation, or the pool — and have your child draw or cut out related pictures from magazines and catalogs. Paste the pictures onto paper to make a book, and then encourage your child to write text for each page. A younger child can dictate the story for you to write down (using your child's words). When you're done, read the book together.
Keep in touch. Kids don't have to go away to write about summer vacation. Even if your family stays home, you can encourage your child to send postcards, letters, or e-mails to friends and relatives. Ask a relative to be your child's pen pal, and encourage a weekly exchange of letters, postcards, or e-mails.
Keep up the reading rituals. Even if everything else changes during the summer, keep up the reading routines already in place at your house. Read with your kids every day — whether it's just before bedtime or under a shady tree on a lazy afternoon. And don't forget to take a book to the beach! Just brush the sand off the pages!

The fundamental principle underlying CSE's water management programme is that the looming water crisis facing the country is not primarily due to a lack of water, but rather arises from mismanagement of water resources. The centralised management paradigm has kept the citizens out and taken away their sense of responsibility towards managing their water.
With growing urbanisation and industralisation India faces the challenge of providing clean and safe drinking water to all citizens. In the name of economic growth most rivers and streams are turning into sewers. As more and more rivers are getting polluted, the municipalities are finding it difficult to treat river water to safe levels and supply it to citizens.
Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) offers a free feature service to media organisations across the country. This service has been operational for more than four years now, and is steadily being accepted as a trusted source for topical news stories and opinion pieces on hotly debated issues of environment, science and health.
CSE's work on Urban RWH
The first step: To make households, industries, institutions, and urban mohallas, all recognise the importance and value of rainwater harvesting for their own lives.
CSE started its work on water issues way back in the 80s, when it was becoming apparent that the water management paradigm based on exploitation of surface and groundwater resources even as it neglected capturing rain to recharge or for direct use would lead the country to a huge water crisis. CSE first focussed on pushing for policy reforms in the water sector to mainstream harvesting rainwater in both urban and rural areas.
Traditionally, water was seen as a responsibility of citizens and the community collectively took the responsibility of not only building but also of maintaining the water bodies. Since independence, the government has taken control over the water-bodies and water supply.
Based on our years of work in the field, we realised the ineffectiveness of the State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs) in their regulatory function.
In order to understand the specificities and to recognise the very issues, we carried out a questionnaire based survey of the various SPCBs. The survey helped us pin-point the specific problems and needs of the state boards. We now plan to develop a Regulator's Training Institute which can help build capacity of our regulators.
Community based rainwater harvesting - the paradigm of the past - has in it as much strength as it ever did before. A survey conducted by CSE of several drought-struck villages found that those which had undertaken rainwater harvesting and/or watershed development in earlier years had no drinking water problem whatsoever and even had some water to irrigate their crops.
The programme relies on a two pronged strategy of doing laboratory research to generate empirical data on issues of toxins and food safety and secondly, doing policy research and advocacy to bring about changes in the regulatory and enforcement framework.
The mission of the Pollution Monitoring Laboratory (PML) is to catalyze communities and NGOs to fight polluters across the country by supporting them with scientific proof and documentation of pollution and its health impacts.
