Doctor Who: THE SEEDS OF DEATH


 THE SEEDS OF DEATH.   Written by Brian Hayles.   6 episodes.
                       25th January - 1st March 1969.
                     
 COMPANIONS:- Jamie and Zoe.

   The Earth is under attack (again) by the Ice Warriors who have taken
 control of the T-MAT system. The T-MAT is a matter transporting system
 which has become the accepted mode of transport, replacing the aircraft
 and ships of today. The Ice Warriors take control of the relay station
 on the moon and use T-MAT to transport seed pods to Earth. These pods
 release deadly spores which mutate into a fungus and drain the atmosphere,
 making it suitable for the Ice Warriors.
   The Doctor uses the T-MAT to travel to Earth and finds the planet in
 chaos. The Ice Warriors have control of the weather control station and
 are cooling the planet. The Doctor manages to regain control of the station
 and warms the infected areas, causing rain which destroys the fungus.
 The Ice Warriors are despatched using a solar powered gun.
   This is another story available from BBC Video.

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. ...
