Title: "The Men Who Moved the World" Pages: 13. Feature(s): Hawkman (of Earth-1) Feature Character(s) Hawkman (last appearance in Brave and the Bold #44; next appearance in Atom #7) Supporting Character(s) Hawkgirl (last appearance in Brave and the Bold #44; next appearance in Atom #7) Khrem, Setph, and an unnamed cat-headed humanoid (no further appearances) Comments: Hawkman teams up with the Atom in Atom #7 following this story. Hawkgirl appears only as Shiera Hall in that story. Synopsis: Three animal-headed humanoids wake after 12,000 years, to recover a disc housed in the Midway City Museum which they intend to use to restore Earth to its orbit of 10,000 B.C. Despite Hawkman�s intervention they do so, and thus cause the planet to leave its present orbit. The radiation residue they leave in the museum allows Hawkman and Hawkgirl to trail them to the ancient Trans-Jordan city of Petra, where the humanoids activated the orbitron. This machine will make the change in orbit permanent after one day of operation; this they believe will change Earth�s topography enough to uncover their ancient city of Lansinar, now buried under the ice in the Arctic. Awakened from their sleep by prior plan, the trio is now charged with the task of restoring their city�s dominance over Earth, which had been halted when a wandering planet passed by (12,000 years ago), which changed the orbit by shifting the poles. Hawkman and Hawkgirl battle the three in planes over Petra, and capture the humanoids after putting their crafts out of commission. The villains refuse to communicate until hearing a signal that the day has passed, and then reveal their plans. They have miscalculated, however; Earth�s day is now six hours longer than in their time, and the winged crimefighters easily turn off the machine. Then they turn them over to the United Nations for determination of their fate and that of their city. The Hawkman Archives Vol. 1 by Gardner F. Fox.

Thanagar is mistakenly referred to as "Ranagar" once in this story. Synopsis: Homesick, Katar and Shayera return to Thanagar, and report to their Chief of Police Andar Pul, who sends them on vacation. First, they are debriefed of Earth�s police methods. When they return to active duty, they encounter thieves, tiny green men riding giant dragonflies, and capture these riders using Terran crime-fighting techniques. However, the dragonflies complete the robbery on their own, and Katar suspects that his old foe Byth is at the bottom of this theft. They find him gone from prison, and learn that the raiders are androids. Byth had arranged for his formula to alter his being to be smuggled into prison on the adhesive of envelopes, and escaped as a Vandalusian driller mole. To clear their minds, Hawkman and Hawkgirl visit the Veil of Valmoora, site of their first meeting. There, rookie policewoman Shayera Thal had saved veteran Katar Hol�s life in the capture of the Rainbow Robbers. This causes her to think of her marriage earrings, and she devises a plan to bring Byth into the open, using a gem tree adorned with planted jewels. The villain successfully makes off with the jewels, putting the guards into a trance, but Hawkman follows his radioactive trail. The couple tracks down the gang, and overcomes them all, even though Byth changes into a mirage bird and attempts, unsuccessfully, to escape. Byth and his accomplices are all incarcerated, this time without visitation or mail privileges. Krandor Vat, High Mor of Thanagar, honors Hawkman�s accomplishments by awarding the first pair of Honor Wings, which are permanently fixed to his cowl. The Hawkman Archives Vol. 1 by Gardner F. Fox.

Flash Comics Vol 1 3. Appearing in "The Flash: The Trial of Major Williams" Edit. Featured Characters: Supporting Characters: Adversaries: Mr. Berstoff. Other Characters: Major Williams Mr. Eddens. Synopsis for "The Flash: The Trial of Major Williams" Edit. When Joan's father is framed and arrested for being a spy, the Flash speeds up his investigation of the foreign government behind the apparent frame-up. He finds out that the publisher of the Town Cackle, a local newspaper, is responsible. The publisher, Berstoff, wants to steal the plans to Williams’s new invention (a new energy source), and sell it to foreign bidders. Flash gathers evidence against Berstoff which allows Williams to go free. Then he forces a confession from Berstoff and turns him over to the authorities. Appearing in "Hawkman: The Secret of Dick Blendon" Edit. Featured Characters: Supporting Characters: Adversaries: Count Torgoff (Death) Una Cathay (Death) Rolf. Other Characters: Dick Blendon. Synopsis for "Hawkman: The Secret of Dick Blendon" Edit. Carter Hall learns that his old friend Dick Blendon is dead. When he consoles Dick's father, he meets Una Cathay, a scientist friend of Dick's, and he is suspicious of Una, her sinister associate, Count Torgoff, and her henchman Rolf. When he discovers that Dick's body is missing he investigates. Hawkman discovers that Una has revived Dick, and is keeping him prisoner with several other scientists, in oversized laboratory flasks, hoping to learn from her captives, one way or another, the secret of eternal life. Una, a scientist, tries to put a voodoo hex on Hawkman but thanks to Shiera's extremely keen eyesight and quick wits, he narrowly avoids being killed. He returns to her lab and rescues Dick, who, it turns out, was never really dead after all. Hawkman then confronts the villains, who have found their victims gone, and as Torgoff pulls a gun, Hawkman pins him to the wall with a dagger. Una makes her getaway during this action, and as Hawkman makes for the window to locate the fleeing villain, the Count frees himself and lunges at Hawkman just as he is flying out the window, and falls to his death. As Una Cathay makes for her car, the Hawkman swoops over and hurls a dagger, taking out one tire, causing Miss Cathay to hit a tree, breaking her neck. -- Also Dick Blendon AND all of his scientist pals learn Hawkman's secret identity, but they all promise to keep it a secret, (which, honestly, is more than Carter has been doing).

  • Thanks for Coming. I'm Glenn Geher, the Director of Evolutionary Studies
    Hi, everyone. [BACKGROUND] Thanks for coming. I'm Glenn Geher, the Director of Evolutionary Studies. I am thrilled to be introducing Dr. Victoria Ingalls today, who is the first official speaker in the 2011 EvoS Seminar Series. I made a brief little PowerPoint myself because I was so excited about the introduction. Dr. Ingalls' talk is going to be focusing on her evolutionary analysis of children's fantasy literature. What's fantastic about her research, in my mind, it's Evolutionary Studies Program at its best. A trained biologist with a PhD in Zoology from the University of Massachusetts. She has done extensive research on various species, largely on a variety of bird species. Because of her deep understanding of evolution and biological principles, has recently branched out to study human behavior as well. She does it in a way that is true to the animal behavior and evolutionist origins in her background. So she will hare that with us today. The work that she has done recently has integrated literary studies, psychology, and evolutionary biology in a really interesting and seamless way to provide significant insights into who we are. When I was reading her article earlier this week, I got so excited because I found myself quite educated by the process. One of the core things we believe about the evolutionary studies program is that evolutionary theory and its applications are highly relevant to everyday life. People often think that's not the case, which is a concern regarding evolution education. When I was reading her stuff, I thought to myself, my goodness, it is highly relevant because she's talking about sex differences, male-female differences in the creation of heroes in literature.

To catch evil, it takes evil. Enter Devyl Bane– an ancient dark warlord returned to the human realm as one of the most notorious pirates in the New World. A man of many secrets, Bane makes a pact with Thorn– an immortal charged with securing the worst creations the ancient gods ever released into our world. Those powers have been imprisoned for eons behind enchanted gates . gates that are beginning to buckle. At Thorn’s behest, Bane takes command of a crew of Deadmen and, together, they are humanity’s last hope to restore the gates and return the damned to their hell realms. But things are never so simple. And one of Bane’s biggest problems is the ship they sail upon. For the Sea Witch isn’t just a vessel, she’s also a woman born of an ancient people he wronged and who in turn wronged him during a centuries long war between their two races— a woman who is also sister to their primary target. Now Marcelina, the Sea Witch, must choose. Either she remains loyal to her evil sister and almost extinct race against Bane and his cause, and watches humanity fall, or she puts faith in an enemy who has already betrayed her. Her people over the totality of humanity— let’s hope Bane can sway her favor.

  • Whither Organic?The Demands of a Burgeoning Organic Industry Also in This Issue: Rare Matter, Master Craftsmen and the Brave New World of Recruiting
    CONNECTING WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY, THE STATE, AND THE WORLD • Winter 2006 – 07 Whither Organic?The demands of a burgeoning organic industry Also in this issue: Rare matter, master craftsmen and The brave new world of recruiting WINTER 2006–07 VOLUME 6, NUMBER 1 features 22 Whither Organic? by Tim Steury Consumers give any number of reasons for buying organic. Better taste. Concern about the environment. The health of their children. Maybe CONTENTS just that warm, fuzzy country feeling. But farmers are moving into organic increasingly for one reason. To make money. Organic agriculture is a major growth niche in an industry where profit margins shrink daily, and Washington has the climate — and the university — to lead the way. • Organic Research • Organic MAJor • Getting the goodies 30 The Brave New World of College Recruiting by Hannelore Sudermann It’s a brave — and fierce — new world of college recruiting, one with enrollment managers, target marketing campaigns, and admissions counselors who spend hours guiding individual students to apply. The schools are all seeking the same 30 things: students with high grades and high test scores, students who will enrich the cultural mix of the student body, and students who will graduate in a reasonable amount of time. 36 The Science Shop by Cherie Winner So what made Peter Engels — a brand new faculty member who started with nothing more than an empty room — think he could make Bose- Einstein condensate, a rare form of matter that is leading to advances in computing that could someday make today’s computers seem as inefficient as cutting notches on a stick? First, he had experience: he got his doctorate in one of the three German labs that had done it, and then worked with one of the scientists who won the Nobel Prize for discovering BEC.
