Slyther. Slythers were creatures native to Skaro. They were occasionally utilised by the Daleks to act as guards at their installations. Biology [ edit | edit source ] Slythers looked like large, black creatures. Their skins were so thick that they were immune to the stings of the Varga plant so they wouldn't transform into a Varga like other lifeforms. (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek ) They moved slowly and regularly groaned. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth ) History [ edit | edit source ] During the Dalek occupation of Earth in the 22nd century, the Daleks used Slythers in their attacks. (AUDIO: Masters of Earth ) Towards the end of the invasion, the Supreme Controller used a Slyther to guard the Bedfordshire mines at night, where it killed and ate anything it found. After it attacked a small group of humans consisting of Ian Chesterton, Larry Madison, Wells, and Ashton (killing the last), Ian hit it with a rock, causing it to fall down a pit to its death. (TV: The Dalek Invasion of Earth ) By 2199, there were still Slythers in the forests around London where they would attack anyone who wandered into their paths. Dedicated knights hunted and killed them. (PROSE: Legacy of the Daleks ) In the year 2254, the Seventh Doctor encountered Slythers on Skaro. (GAME: Dalek Attack ) During the late 22nd century, parents who had been alive during the invasion of Earth told stories of the Slythers to scare their children into behaving. (AUDIO: An Earthly Child ) During the Great War, a Slyther was used by the Daleks on the planet Antalin. (PROSE: War of the Daleks ) In the year 2515, the Daleks used Slythers during their assault on Lan Beta. (PROSE: Parasite ) While on Skaro in the 27th century, Bernice Summerfield commented that she would rather hug a Slyther than have her nerve fried by a Dalek gunstick as it would be quicker and less painful. (AUDIO: The Lights of Skaro ) During the 41st century, Station 7 contained a section of the forest on Skaro which included Varga plants and a Slyther which later returned to the Daleks. (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek ) Following the reconstruction of Skaro in an era that succeeded the Last Great Time War, Missy adopted a Slyther as a pet when she found herself on the planet. She named it Doctor and allowed it to eat Thals. (PROSE: Postcards from the Universe ) Terrance Dicks. Terrance Dicks (born Terrance William Dicks on 14 April 1935 in East Ham, Essex [1] , died 29 August 2019 [2] ) whom fans have long affectionately called "Uncle Terrance", script edited the Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee eras of Doctor Who and wrote many Doctor Who episodes, novels and novelisations, becoming one of the most prolific authors and scriptwriters. Contents. Profile [ edit | edit source ] Overview [ edit | edit source ] Terrance Dicks began his long association with Doctor Who in 1968, when he joined the production team during the Second Doctor story The Invasion . He soon began writing scripts for the series. His first notable work was The War Games , an epic, ten-episode collaboration with Malcolm Hulke. Dicks served as script editor through the Jon Pertwee era. He handed the reins to Robert Holmes with the coming of Tom Baker. Dicks continued to supply scripts for the series under his name and pseudonyms, specifically "Robin Bland" which was used when too many changes were made to his script for The Brain of Morbius . Between seasons 13 and 14, he unsuccessfully attempted to sell a version of Doctor Who to BBC Radio, which would have starred Tom Baker and Elisabeth Sladen. (INFO: The Seeds of Doom ) At roughly the same time, he submitted what would become State of Decay to the Doctor Who production office. It remained unproduced for several years as the BBC had recently produced a new version of Dracula . His final script for televised Doctor Who was for the twentieth anniversary story The Five Doctors . In 1973, Dicks, along with other writers from the TV series, were commissioned by Target Books to write novelisations adapting TV episodes. Over the next two decades, Dicks became the most prolific author of the line. He was editor of the range at one point. In later years, when Target adopted the policy of commissioning the original teleplay writers to novelise their works, Dicks became the "go-to guy" when the original teleplay writer was deceased, unable or unwilling to adapt their work in book form. The Target Books line was retired in the early 1990s. Dicks wrote original novels for virtually every line of Doctor Who fiction, with notable exceptions being Virgin Missing Adventures, Telos Publishing, Big Finish Productions' Bernice Summerfield series of books and the current hardcover series of BBC Books novels, although he wrote two entries in the Quick Reads novella series, most notably Made of Steel , which introduced fans to Martha Jones a full month before her TV debut. He is one of only a handful of Classic Era TV writers to have written licenced Modern Era stories (others include Andrew Cartmel, who has written for the Doctor Who Adventures comic strip, and Rona Munro, who contributed a script to Series 10). He also co-wrote The Making of Doctor Who , the first non-fiction book about the series. In 2007, after a hiatus of seventeen years, Dicks returned to writing episode novelisations by adapting Invasion of the Bane for a new series of novelisations based upon The Sarah Jane Adventures , published by Penguin Character Books. Although most closely associated with Doctor Who , Dicks has also worked on other projects, such as a mid-1970s series of novels featuring the adventures of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Of the first thirteen incarnations of the Doctor, Dicks wrote novels and novelisations featuring all of them except the Ninth, Twelfth and Thirteenth Doctors. In terms of novelisations, discounting the Modern Era Doctors, for whom novelisations have not been commissioned, along with the Eighth Doctor, the only Doctor era not receiving the Dicks treatment at some point was the Seventh Doctor (discounting the special case of Shakedown , a partial novelisation of the independent film Shakedown: Return of the Sontarans , which Dicks adapted for the Virgin New Adventures, expanding the story to include the Seventh Doctor). He also contributed to the charity reference book Behind the Sofa: Celebrity Memories of Doctor Who . Contributions to the Doctor Who universe [ edit | edit source ] Major characters and concepts created in a Terrance Dicks script or substantially developed by him as script editor include the Time Lords (in The War Games , co-written with Malcolm Hulke), as well as the Master played by Roger Delgado. More minor creations include the Rutans, the War Lord, the Death Zone and Morbius. In-universe his name is given to a library at St Luke's University. (COMIC: The Lost Dimension ) The first part of Spyfall was dedicated to his 'Masterful' talents.

    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • Is China Colonizing North Korea?
    Is China Colonizing North Korea? Unraveling Geopolitical Economy in the Production of Territory Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Seung-Ook Lee, M.A. Department of Geography The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Joel Wainwright, Advisor Mathew Coleman Bruce Cumings Ed Malecki Becky Mansfield Copyright by Seung-Ook Lee 2013 Abstract This dissertation examines the complex articulations between geopolitical and geoeconomic imperatives across national borders in the production of state territory. More specifically, it investigates the development of territorial linkages between North Korea and northeast China, scrutinizing the political-economic conditions that underlie these bilateral relations. My central thesis is that the recent changes in political-economic relations between these two countries have resulted not from a unilateral economic movement on the part of China – a ‘colonization’ – but instead through the mutual articulation of two processes: on one hand, North Korea’s deployment of territorial strategies to leverage its regional capacities and, on the other, China’s geo-economic approach to enhancing security in the border region. I contend that the discourse of China’s colonization of North Korea that has been constructed and disseminated by South Koreans reveals that both liberals and conservatives in South Korea desire North Korea as a sort of colony, albeit in different forms. This argument unfolds in three parts. First, in Chapter 2, I begin with a theoretical elaboration of geopolitical economy in the production of territory. Here I examine two different dialectical interactions which are deeply entangled with the production of state territory—the dialectics between geopolitical and geoeconomic logics of power and between territorial practices and representations of territory.

  • Conscience: the Mechanism of Morality
    And is not this universally true? If a man does something for the sake of something else, he wills not that which he does, but that for the sake of which he does it. -- Socrates1 This is my life's work, and that began with Ann-Ellen Marion and Dan White. Each in their own ways has shown me strength, courage, kindness and passion, the tensions of which ground my every conception. I often remember the fireflies and elderberries and evening crickets, the dogs and the trips to the north country. There, we witnessed otters sledding the steep snowy bank of a deep winter river, each after the others single file on slick brown bellies laid out in wet whiskered dives into the icy water only to gallop back and do it again. This text is testimony to that moment. Were I an otter, I would do it all again. Most dearly missed is Scott Jeavons: sunsets on the lake and skipping school. Good-bye. White – Conscience, the mechanism of morality .Preface: Men do not know how what is at variance agrees with itself. It is an attunement of opposite tensions, like that of the bow and the lyre. -- Heraclitus2 Therefore the sage is guided by what he feels and not by what he sees. -- Lao tzu3 When the natural world changes, when objects like the ocean and the ozone change, we change. When the weather changes the science changes, never the other way around. Our stories are simply a series of adjustments over long periods of time taken in terms of the always current situation.

He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology.

Challenges from Doctor Who to the mad scientist trope Lindy A. Orthia Much of the public understanding of science literature dealing with fictional scientists claims that scientist villains by their nature embody an antiscience critique. I characterize this claim and its founding assumptions as the “mad scientist” trope. I show how scientist villain characters from the science fiction television series Doctor Who undermine the trope via the program’s use of rhetorical strategies similar to Gilbert and Mulkay’s empiricist and contingent repertoires, which define and patrol the boundaries between “science” and “non-science”. I discuss three such strategies, including the literal framing of scientist villains as “mad.” All three strategies exclude the characters from science, relieve science of responsibility for their villainy, and overtly or covertly contribute to the delivery of pro-science messages consistent with rationalist scientism. I focus on scientist villains from the most popular era of Doctor Who, the mid 1970s, when the show embraced the gothic horror genre.
