 The Powerful Enemy, Desperate Measures.

 COMPANIONS:- Ian, Barbara and introducing Vicki.

   The Doctor lands on the planet Dido in the year 2493. He finds a crashed
 spaceship with two survivors, a disabled man called Bennett and a young
 girl, Vicki.
   Bennett tells the Doctor that the crew of the ship were murdered by the
 locals and Vicki says that a native, Koquillion, is protecting them from
 further harm. The Doctor is suspicious of this story and challenges
 Koquillion, who is revealed to be Bennett in disguise. Bennett confesses to
 murdering the crew and the Didonians to cover up his previous murder of a
 crewman. He plans to take Vicki, ignorant of his crimes, back to Earth to
 testify to his innocence.
   However, two Didonian survivors appear and scare Bennett into falling
 from a cliff to his death. The Doctor invites Vicki to join the TARDIS
 crew and she accepts.

Evidence supporting quantum information processing in animals

              Evidence supporting quantum            information processing in animals                    James A. Donald                    1068 Fulton Av                    Sunnyvale, CA 94089-1505                    USA I show that quantum systems can rapidly solve some problems for which finite state machines require a non- polynomially large time. This class of problems is closely related to the class of problems that animals can solve rapidly and effortlessly, but are intractable for computers by all known algorithms. 1. Introduction      Animals, including very simple animals, can rapidly and effortlessly perceive objects, whereas computers take nonpolynomial time to do this by all...

ARMIES OF CHAOS

                          ARMIES OF CHAOS -      Before anyone proposes more gun control, he or she should know  about a simple, deadly weapon 4 times as powerful as Dirty Harry's  legendary .44 Magnum -- and at least twice as concealable -- that  _can't_ controlled.        This simple, deadly weapon can be made by anyone -- even a  child -- with unpowered hand tools in an hour's time using $5 worth  of materials, most of which are available around the house anyway.   In traditional form it's reusable an unlimited number of times, and  modern plastics have rendered its disposable version electronically  undetectable.  You can clear a room with such a weapon (more of a  hand-held directional grenade than a gun -- sort of a recycleable  Claymore mine) and it's just one of hundreds of similar time-proven  designs. ...
