Mother in Diner: [to Melanie] Why are they doing this? Why are they doing this? They said when you got here the whole thing started. Who are you? What are you? Where did you come from? I think you're the cause of all of this. I think you're evil. EVIL!

Quotes


Cathy Brenner: [while Melanie is playing the piano] I still don't understand how you knew I wanted lovebirds.

Melanie Daniels: Your brother told me.

Lydia Brenner: Then you knew Mitch in San Francisco. Is that right?

Melanie Daniels: No, not exactly.

[grabs a cigarette out of an ashtray]

Cathy Brenner: Mitch knows a lot of people in San Francisco. Of course, they're mostly hoods.

Lydia Brenner: Cathy!

Cathy Brenner: Well, Mom, he's the first to admit it. He spends half his day in the detention cells at the Hall of Justice.

Lydia Brenner: In a democracy, Cathy, everyone is entitled to a fair trial. Your brother's practice...

Cathy Brenner: Aw, Mom, please. I know all that democracy jazz. They're still hoods.

[Mitch comes in]

Cathy Brenner: He has a client now who shot his wife in the head six times. Six times! Can you imagine it? I mean, even twice would be overdoing it, don't you think?

Melanie Daniels: [to Mitch] Why did he shoot her?

Mitch Brenner: He was watching a ball game on television.

Melanie Daniels: What?

Mitch Brenner: His wife changed the channel.

[laughs and leaves]

Cathy Brenner: Are you coming to my party tomorrow?

Melanie Daniels: I don't think so. I have to get back to San Francisco.

Cathy Brenner: Don't you like us?

Melanie Daniels: Oh, darling, of course I do.

Cathy Brenner: Don't you like Bodega Bay?

Melanie Daniels: I don't know yet.

Cathy Brenner: Mitch likes it very much. He comes up every weekend, you know, even though he has his own apartment in the city. He says that San Francisco's like an anthill up the foot of a bridge.

Melanie Daniels: Well, I suppose it does get a little hectic at times.

Cathy Brenner: Well, if you do decide to come, don't say I told you about it. It's suppose to be a suprise party. You see, they've got this whole complicated thing figured out, where I'm going to Michele's for the afternoon, and Michele's mother will say she has a headache. Would I mind very much if she took me home. And when I get here, all the kids'll jump out! Oh, won't you come. Won't you please come?

Melanie Daniels: I don't think so.

Quotes

Mitch Brenner: What about the letter you wrote me, is that a lie, too?

Melanie Daniels: No, I wrote the letter.

Mitch Brenner: Well what did it say?

Melanie Daniels: It said 'Dear Mister Brenner, I think you need these lovebirds after all. They may help your personality.'

Mitch Brenner: But you tore it up?

Melanie Daniels: Yes.

Mitch Brenner: Why?

Melanie Daniels: Because it seemed stupid and foolish.

Mitch Brenner: Like jumping into a fountain in Rome?

Melanie Daniels: I told you what happened!

Mitch Brenner: You don't expect me to believe that, do you?

Melanie Daniels: Oh, I don't give a damn what you believe!

Mitch Brenner: Be able to find your way back all right?

Melanie Daniels: Oh, yes.

Mitch Brenner: Will I be seeing you again?

Melanie Daniels: San Francisco's a long way from here.

Mitch Brenner: Well, I'm in San Francisco five days a week with a lot of time on my hands, I'd like to see you. Maybe we could go swimming or something. Mother tells me you like to swim.

Melanie Daniels: How does Mother know what I like to do?

Mitch Brenner: I guess we read the same gossip columns.

Melanie Daniels: Oh, that. Rome.

Mitch Brenner: Yeah, I really like to swim, I think we might get along very well.

Melanie Daniels: In case you're interested, I was pushed into that fountain.

Mitch Brenner: Without any clothes on?

Melanie Daniels: With all my clothes on. The newspaper that ran that story happens to be a rival of my father's paper.

Mitch Brenner: You're just a poor, innocent victim of circumstances, huh?

Melanie Daniels: Well I'm neither poor nor innocent, but the truth of that particular...

Mitch Brenner: Truth is you were running around with a pretty wild crowd, isn't it?

Melanie Daniels: Well yes, that's the truth, but I was pushed into that fountain, and that's the truth, too.

What happened, Mitch?

Gull hit her.

A gull?

Oh. Let's try up at the restaurant, all right?

Might need a tetanus shot.

I had a booster before I went abroad last May.

What happened?

Hello, Deke.

Young lady cut herself.

Shall I call a doctor?

I don't think it's that serious. Let's see.

Helen, get some cotton and antiseptic.

Um, you cut yourself outside, miss?

Don't worry, Deke. She did it in a boat.

I had a man trip and fall in the parking lot once. Sued me before I could bat an eyelash.

I don't think Miss Daniels is gonna sue anybody.

Here.

Well, you're the lawyer.

Thank you.

What's that?

Just some peroxide. I'll clean out the cut.

So you're a lawyer.

That's right. Of course, I usually defend people, but if I were prosecuting...

Do you practice here?

Uh-uh, San Francisco.

What are you doing up here?

What kind of law?

Criminal.

Is that why you want to see everyone behind bars?

Oh, not everyone. Only violators and practical jokers.

Not all fountains in Spokane are filtered

It's tempting to splash around in public fountains, especially on a hot summer day, but not all fountains have the same filtration system.

SPOKANE, Wash.-- It's tempting to splash around in public fountains, especially on a hot summer day, but not all fountains have the same filtration system.

The only safe public fountain to splash around this summer in Spokane is the Rotary Fountain in Riverfront Park.

The Rotary Fountain is the only fountain where the water is filtered and recirculated for recreational use.

The City of Spokane also suggests visitors to use the 17 splash pads and 6 public pools in the area. The splash pads use the same water you take a shower with or drink from the tap.

Splash pads have a backflow prevention system to make sure water doesn't flow back into the city's water system.

For a map of all of the splash pads visit their website: https://my.spokanecity.org/recreation/aquatics/splash-pads/

BECKETT: You see? Nothing. (He gets out of the Chair and starts to walk away.)

McKAY: Carson. Get back here.

BECKETT: I could sit in that chair all bloody day long and nothing would happen. It's a waste of time. Excuse me, Doctor Weir. (He walks away.)

McKAY (to Weir): He's not even trying.

WEIR: But he's the one who discovered the gene this technology responds to.

McKAY: Yeah, well, he said he wished he never had it.

WEIR: Really?

McKAY (incredulously): I know, can you believe that?

(Weir smiles.)

WEIR: We could always test you a third time, Rodney.

McKAY (annoyed): That's very funny.

WEIR: We've only found a handful of people who are genetically compatible with the Ancient technology and despite your heroic efforts to interface ours with theirs, we need every one of them to sit in this Chair, including Doctor Beckett.

McKAY: What am I supposed to do? He's afraid of that thing.

WEIR: This Chair controls the most powerful weapons known to humankind. I'm afraid of the thing. But every time someone sits in it we learn something new about the Ancients who built this outpost. Doctor Beckett should be proud he's genetically advanced.

McKAY: It's not more advanced. It-it is a random characteristic.

WEIR: This really bothers you, this whole gene thing, huh?!

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Season 1 Episode 1

Awakening (1)

Aired Thursday 8:00 PM Sep 20, 1979 on NBC

Episode Summary

In the year 1987, NASA launched space probe Ranger III, with astronaut William "Buck" Rogers, on a 5-month trip around the solar system. However, the craft runs into a meteor storm, which disrupts its life support system and sends it into a long elliptical orbit of the Earth. In the year 2491, Ranger III again approaches the Earth, and is intercepted by the alien flagship Draconia, which is on a peace mission to Earth. Aboard the Draconia, Buck is revived by Princess Ardala and her second-in-command, Kane, whose true plan is to attack and conquer Earth. Buck is sent to Earth with a hidden homing device, which is soon discovered by Earth's Defense Directorate. Buck is found guilty of treason and sentenced to death. However, at the last minute a plan is devised to send Buck to infiltrate the Draconians in an effort to prove his innocence. (Part 1 of 2)

Mysterious UFO dubbed 'WTF' is on a collision course with Earth: Space junk will crash into the Indian Ocean next month

WTF1190F is predicted to crash into the Indian Ocean on 13 November

Object may be part of a rocket from a lunar mission or even an Apollo craft

Most of WTF1190F is predicted to burn up in the atmosphere upon entry

It will give experts a rare opportunity to see an impact from start to finish

By SARAH GRAHAM FOR MAILONLINE

PUBLISHED: 06:34 EST, 26 October 2015 UPDATED: 08:44 EST, 26 October 2015

A strange piece of space junk is expected to plummet to Earth in November, but researchers don't currently have any idea what it is.

The object, dubbed WTF1190F, is set to land in the Indian Ocean, around 40 miles (65km) off the southern tip of Sri Lanka, at 6:20 UTC on 13 November.

It measures up to 7ft (2 metres) long and it could be a piece of rocket stage from a recent lunar mission, or even part of an Apollo program craft that has been in space for more than 40 years.

But rather than threatening life on Earth as we know it, the object will give scientists a rare opportunity to observe a relatively small impact from its approach to landing.

WTF1190F’s trajectory was first calculated in 2012.

The unknown object was rediscovered by astronomers at the Catalina Sky Survey, based at the University of Arizona earlier this month.

Astronomers at the European Space Agency’s (Esa) Near Earth Object office in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, are now monitoring the space junk’s journey carefully.

It is also being used to test plans put in place to monitor potentially dangerous space objects hurtling towards Earth.

The agency said that WT1190F 'poses very little risk to anyone but could help scientists improve our understanding of how any object – man-made or natural – interacts with Earth’s atmosphere.'

Bill Gray, an independent astronomy software developer who has been tracking the debris with Nasa’s Jet propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, told Nature the space junk was travelling in an elliptical orbit, that at its longest point, is twice as long as the distance between Earth and the moon.

The way it moves also suggests the object is hollow inside.

It's not known how many pieces of space junk orbit the Earth and moon, but WT1190F is rare.

It is believed to be one of only 20 or so man-made objects tracked in distant orbit, according to Gareth Williams, an astronomer at the Minor Planet Centre in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

And it's not known exactly how the object was propelled onto a collision-course with Earth.

Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, said WTF1190F is probably ‘a lost piece of space history that’s come back to haunt us’.

While it is more likely the junk dates from recent years, it could be a piece of from an Apollo Mission, over 40 years ago.

A piece of the Saturn V rocket, which enabled man to first walk on the moon, was spotted orbiting Earth in 2002.

If WTF1190F is a piece of rocket it will be the first piece of man-made junk to return home independently.

Mr Gray predicts most of it should burn up upon entering the atmosphere, so it will not create a terrifying tidalwave or crater as seen in disaster films.

But despite this, he said: ‘I would not necessarily want to be going fishing directly underneath it.’

Project Gutenberg's The Time Machine, by H. G. (Herbert George) Wells


Title: The Time Machine

Author: H. G. (Herbert George) Wells


VII


'Through that long night I held my mind off the Morlocks as well as I could, and whiled away the time by trying to fancy I could find signs of the old constellations in the new confusion. The sky kept very clear, except for a hazy cloud or so. No doubt I dozed at times. Then, as my vigil wore on, came a faintness in the eastward sky, like the reflection of some colourless fire, and the old moon rose, thin and peaked and white. And close behind, and overtaking it, and overflowing it, the dawn came, pale at first, and then growing pink and warm. No Morlocks had approached us. Indeed, I had seen none upon the hill that night. And in the confidence of renewed day it almost seemed to me that my fear had been unreasonable. I stood up and found my foot with the loose heel swollen at the ankle and painful under the heel; so I sat down again, took off my shoes, and flung them away.

'I awakened Weena, and we went down into the wood, now green and pleasant instead of black and forbidding. We found some fruit wherewith to break our fast. We soon met others of the dainty ones, laughing and dancing in the sunlight as though there was no such thing in nature as the night.
