Memorable quotes for
Event Horizon (1997) [ RACKETEER INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATIONS US Title 18 ]
Dr. Weir: What was made public about the Event Horizon - that she was a deep space research vessel, that her reactor went critical, and that the ship blew up - none of that is true. The Event Horizon is the culmination of a secret government project to create a spacecraft capable of faster-than-light flight.
Smith: Uhm, excuse me. See, you can't actually do that.

Pluto Not a Planet, Astronomers Rule

August 24, 2006 (Updated 3:30 p.m. ET)
Pluto has been voted off the island.
Pluto to Get Partners? New Definition of "Planet" Proposed (August 16, 2006)
"Whoa! Pluto's dead," said astronomer Mike Brown, of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, as he watched a Webcast of the vote. "There are finally, officially, eight planets in the solar system."
In a move that's already generating controversy and will force textbooks to be rewritten, Pluto will now be dubbed a dwarf planet.

August 24, 2006: Pluto Loses Planet Status
Papier-mâché solar systems dangling from strings in science classrooms made before this day in 2006 were deemed irrelevant as the International Astronomical Union declared that Pluto was no longer a planet. Since its discovery in 1930, icy Pluto (now considered a “dwarf planet) had been classified as the 9th planet from the sun.

Pluto Loses Planet Status (0:13) TV-PG
On August 24, 2006, the International Astronomical Union voted to reclassify Pluto as a "dwarf planet," shrinking the solar system from nine planets to eight and setting off a controversy within the scientific community. In a broadcast following the announcement, James Zimbelman from the Smithsonian Institution shares his opinion about the "oddball" of outer space.

Pluto Loses Planet Status
August 24, 2006 -- The International Astronomical Union has stripped Pluto of its planetary status. Pluto was discovered in 1930 by American astronomer Clyde Tombaugh of Arizona's Lowell Observatory and classified as a planet. In 2003, Pluto’s standing was called into question when astronomers found a larger object, UB313, in the Kuiper Belt, an area beyond Neptune filled with large icy objects and believed to be the source of many comets.
Approximately 2,500 experts at the IAU’s general assembly voted to change Pluto’s status, rejecting a proposal that would have retained Pluto as a planet and brought three other objects into the planetary club. Pluto is considerably smaller and more distant than the other planets in our solar system. Two-thirds the size of Earth's moon, Pluto's classification as a planet came under scrutiny when many objects of similar size and distance were discovered in the Kuiper Belt in the 1990s.

Q&A: Pluto's planetary demotion
Pluto has lost its classification as a planet.
The distant world discovered in 1930 by the American Clyde Tombaugh will be given a secondary status - that of "dwarf planet".
Who made this decision?
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) General Assembly. It has been meeting in the Czech capital, Prague. The IAU is the official nomenclature body for astronomy. The IAU is responsible for naming stars, asteroids and other celestial bodies.
Why was it felt necessary to reclassify Pluto?
A sizeable group of astronomers has been unhappy with Pluto's status for many years. These scientists feel the object's small size and its highly elliptical and tilted orbit set it apart from the other eight planets. They have long campaigned for Pluto's relegation and managed to carry a vote to that effect in Prague.
Why has this debate come to a head now?
How many planets are there now?
Before Thursday, we had nine. Now, the number of planets is eight: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
What happens to Pluto now?
Pluto goes into a new dwarf-planet category.
Is this the end of the matter?
Unlikely. The Principal Investigator on Nasa's $700m New Horizons mission to Pluto has lambasted the decision to demote Pluto. Alan Stern told BBC News the decision was "embarrassing" and the criteria amounted to "sloppy science". He said that if the clear orbit criterion was strictly applied then even Earth should lose its status because its path is crossed by thousands of small rocks.
Dr Stern said like-minded astronomers would try to get Pluto reinstated.

Subject: RE: NCIS Tuesday
That was Lily Jang I saw in that dream, the local Fox News television news personality that I made world famous in my blog.
I saw her put her hand on the upper left side of my chest and I knew there was something wrong there with the physical structure underneath my skin.
She also told me her height, so that’s how those clowns know the difference between Thomas Reagan and me. He is virtually identical to me but he is 6.5 years older than I am and she is over six feet tall while the tallest I ever recall measuring out was five foot eleven inches. One theory is that he endured space travel for a great number of days in his early physical youth and then his late teenage years where he was in deep space for almost 1.5 years that he became taller than he would have been naturally.
So anyway, that’s how they know the difference between us. If no one knew those details then we could easily walk around posing as the other one and no one would know the difference, especially among people who never knew either of us very well and that had not seen either one of us in a long time.
JOURNAL ARCHIVE: Posted by H.V.O.M at 8:08 PM Monday, December 26, 2011
After all this time I do still recall what she said to me in that dream long ago.
What I note here is perhaps not from that same dream. But that might have been the same dream with the "endearing quality." I am not certain now today thinking again about for the first time in a long time if that was the same dream I write of now. The dream I am thinking of now is that she placed her hand on one side of my chest and that dream happened sometime around that time in 2006 when I was having that series of dreams. The notion of her hand on my chest was something I thought of but I didn't try to think about it too much. The notion was not strong but now I think again tonight that I was left with the vague sense that something was different about my chest where she placed her hand. That was Lily Jang I was dreaming of that placed her hand on the side of my chest and at some point, a point in the dream, which I do not now recall, or sometime later, I became aware that something was wrong with my chest. But I had known that for a long time before the year 2006.

Sumner: What have we missed?
Beckett: Not much.
Hologram: ... exchange knowledge and friendship (above her head a three dimensional holographic map of the galaxy appears). In time, a thousand worlds bore the fruit of life in this form. Then, one day our people stepped foot upon a dark world where a terrible enemy slept. Never before had we encountered beings with powers that rivaled our own.

When I opened it all I read was the title and the title summary.
I still haven't read it all. I just had to bust out laughing when I read the name of the woman.
Two or three days ago the local Fox television channel that air broadcasts in Seattle showed a re-broadcast of that "The Simpsons" episode where "Marge" gets mugged and then she turns into a body-builder and I wondered about that woman again.

The physicist, the glamour model and the suitcase of cocaine
Paul Frampton is a particle physicist, Denise Milani a glamour model. They met online, fell in love, made plans to meet. But first she had a favour to ask: could he collect her bag from Bolivia?
Maxine Swann
The Guardian, Friday 29 March 2013
In November 2011, Paul Frampton, a theoretical particle physicist, met Denise Milani, a Czech bikini model, on the online dating site mate1.com. She was gorgeous – dark-haired and dark-eyed, with a supposedly natural DDD breast size. In some photos, she looked tauntingly steamy; in others, she offered a warm smile.
Soon, they were chatting online nearly every day. He would return home from campus – he had been a professor in the physics and astronomy department at the University of North Carolina for 30 years – and his computer would buzz. "Are you there, honey?" They'd chat on Yahoo Messenger for a while, then he'd go to the other room to take care of something. A half-hour later, there was the familiar buzz. It was always Milani: "What are you doing now?"
Frampton had been lonely since his divorce three years earlier; now it seemed those days were over. Milani told him she was longing to change her life. She was tired of being a glamour model, of posing in her bikini on the beach while men ogled. She wanted to settle down, have children. But she worried what he thought of her: "Do you think you could ever be proud of someone like me?" Of course he could, he assured her.
Frampton tried to get her to talk on the phone, but she always demurred. When she finally agreed to meet him in person, she asked him to come to La Paz, Bolivia, where she was on a photoshoot. On 7 January 2012, he set out for Bolivia via Toronto and Santiago, Chile. At 68, he dreamed of finding a wife to bear him children – and what a wife. He pictured introducing Milani to colleagues. One thing worried him, though. She had told him that men hit on her all the time. How did that affect her? Did it go to her head? But then he remembered how comforting it felt to chat with her, like having a companion in the next room. And he knew she loved him. She'd said so many times.

CRATER: She was the last of her kind.
KIRK: The last of her kind?
CRATER: The last of its kind. Earth history, remember? Like the passenger pigeon or buffalo. Ooh! I feel strange.

SPOCK: The Earth buffalo. What about it?
CRATER: Once there were millions of them prairies black with them. One herd covered three whole states, and when they moved they were like thunder.

Galatea (moon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Galatea, also known as Neptune VI, is the fourth closest inner satellite of Neptune.
Galatea was discovered in late July 1989 from the images taken by the Voyager 2 probe. It was given the temporary designation S/1989 N 4 The discovery was announced (IAUC 4824) on August 2, 1989, but the text only talks of "10 frames taken over 5 days", giving a discovery date of sometime before July 28. The name was given on 16 September 1991.

SATELLITES OF NEPTUNE
The Voyager Imaging Team reports that three new satellites of Neptune, 1989 N 2, 1989 N 3 and 1989 N 4, have been discovered in Voyager 2 narrow-angle imaging data. Each has been observed in at least ten frames over a time span of five days, during which the measurement error was about 400 km per narrow-angle pixel. The root-mean-square post-fit residuals are a few pixels. The orbits are all prograde and appear to be nearly circular and equatorial, although there are suggestions of either nonzero eccentricity or inclination for 1989 N 3 and 1989 N 4.

Jesus I must be dreaming.
You know, if you embrace my theories the way I do then I am actually not surprised there are NOT overt signs of cornfields in this film, I think to myself writing this sentence as I have the DVD paused to make this note. Then just before I was about to make this post I thought back to the scene of "Angel" caressing the statue of Jesus Christ in the church, and I barely recall that brief scene but I recall the smirk on her face and I think again about how seriously annoyed I was with the mannequins I kept seeing but my real-life companion in that world did not see mannequins but actual mechanized beings and they told her to not tell me they were mechanized and I did not know about that until she told me about it in the real world.
I mean sure, I think now remembering what I had wrote earlier in my blog about the cornfield. I was on that flight, while everyone else had ducked and covered and I was still sitting up so I could maintain custody of the prisoner, then everything went kind of fuzzy for a second, even more so, and then the quietness was staggering. I have written about that before, that sense in my mind of sudden quietness, and that was me sitting precisely as I had been on the airplane and there was nothing around me but tall stalks of corn and I was still sitting in the same airplane seat but I was all alone in that cornfield and it was suddenly blaring and maddenly blaring quietness. It drives me crazy now just trying to thing again about that.
I think often about how we each struggled with that world. She already knew who I was, I have thought consistently. I guess I would have known who she was. I have wondered if she told me she was married to my biological brother and whether she told me anything about that because I think now consistently that I didn't know anything about him before 1989 although sometimes I have thought otherwise.
She drives away, earlier in the film and the car door is flopping open. The scene started with "Jim" opening the front door of his apartment and leaves were blowing in around the open door and then he is startled to see "Patty" standing there. The dialog has her complaining about how at least his friends had been honest with her.
Nothing about this film is familiar. If I had watched it before then I should recognize at least some of it in the context of watching the film and I do not recognize any details that suggest I have ever before today watched that film.
1987 film "Date with an Angel" DVD video:
01:18:46
Jim Sanders: [ to Angel: ] You know, I really care about Patty. She's - she's - okay, so she's not you, but - please, if you can't look at me without that stupid look of affection on your face then don't look at me at all! Because I've got enough problems, you know, I'm only human. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I know, I know it's not your fault. But it's crazy to feel this way about you. Don't you see, we could never have a real life together because you don't belong here. And it's not that I don't feel something and it's not that I don't care. But, I mean, who wouldn't fall in love with you?

The Stand - The Complete & Uncut Edition [ RACKETEER INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATIONS US Title 18 ]
Chapter 43
There was a dead man lying in the middle of Main Street in May, Oklahoma.
Nick wasn’t surprised. He had seen a lot of corpses since leaving Shoyo, and he suspected he hadn’t seen a thousandth of all the dead people he must have passed. In places, the rich smell of death on the air was enough to make you feel like swooning. One more dead man, more or less, wasn’t going to make any difference.
But when the dead man sat up, such an explosion of terror rose in him that he again lost control of his bike. It wavered, then wobbled, then crashed, spilling Nick violently onto the pavement of Oklahoma Route 3. He cut his hands and scraped his forehead.
“Holy gee, mister, but you took a tumble,” the corpse said, coming toward Nick at a pace best described as an amiable stagger. “Didn’t you just? My laws!”
Nick got none of this. He was looking at a spot on the pavement between his hands where drops of blood from his cut forehead were falling, and wondering how badly he had been cut. When the hand touched him on the shoulder he remembered the corpse and scrambled away on the palms of his hands and the soles of his shoes, the eye not covered with the patch bright with terror.
“Don’t you take on so,” the corpse said, and Nick saw he wasn’t a corpse at all but a young man who was looking happily at him. He had most of a bottle of whiskey in one hand, and now Nick understood. Not a corpse but a man who had gotten drunk and had passed out in the middle of the road.
Nick nodded at him and made a circle with his thumb and forefinger. Just then a drop of blood oozed warmly into the eye that Ray Booth had worked over, making it smart. He raised the eyepatch and swiped his forearm across it. He had a little more vision on that side today, but when he closed his good eye, the world still retreated to something which was little more than a colorful blur. He replaced the patch and then walked slowly to the curb and sat beside a Plymouth with Kansas plates which was slowly settling on its tires. He could see the gash on his forehead reflected in the Plymouth’s bumper. It looked ugly but not deep. He would find the local drugstore, disinfect it, and slap a Band-Aid over it. He thought he still must have enough penicillin in his system to fight off almost anything, but his close call from the bullet-scrape on his leg had given him a horror of infection. He picked scraps of gravel out of his palms, wincing.
The man with the bottle of whiskey had been watching all of this with no expression at all. If Nick had looked up, it would have struck him as queer immediately. When he had turned away to examine his wound in the bumper’s reflection, the animation had leaked out of the man’s face. It became empty and clean and unlined. He was wearing bib-alls that were clean but faded and heavy workshoes. He stood about five-nine, and his hair was so blond it was nearly white. His eyes were a bright, empty blue, and with the cornsilk hair, his Swedish or Norwegian descent was unmistakable. He looked no more than twenty-three, but Nick found out later he had to be forty-five or close to it because he could remember the end of the Korean War, and how his daddy had come home in uniform a month later. There was no question that he might have made that up. Invention was not Tom Cullen’s long suit.
He stood there, empty of face, like a robot whose plug has been pulled. Then, little by little, animation seeped back into his face. His whiskey-reddened eyes began to twinkle. He smiled. He had remembered again what this situation called for.
“Holy gee, mister, but you took a tumble. Didn’t you just? My laws!” He blinked at the amount of blood on Nick’s forehead.
Nick had a pad of paper and a Bic in his shirt pocket; neither had been jarred loose by the fall. He wrote: “You just scared me. Thought you were dead until you sat up. I’m okay. Is there a drugstore in town?”
He showed the pad to the man in the bib-alls. The man took it. Looked at what was written there. Handed it back. Smiling, he said, “I’m Tom Cullen. But I can’t read. I only got to third grade but then I was sixteen and my daddy made me quit. He said I was too big.”
Retarded, Nick thought. I can’t talk and he can’t read. For a moment he was utterly nonplussed.
“Holy gee, mister, but you took a tumble!” Tom Cullen exclaimed. In a way, it was the first time for both of them. “My laws, didn’t you just!”
Nick nodded. Replaced the pad and pen. Put a hand over his mouth again and shook his head. Cupped his hands over his ears and shook his head. Placed his left hand against his throat and shook his head.
Cullen grinned, puzzled. “Got a toothache? I had one once. Gee, it hurt. Didn’t it just? My laws!”
Nick shook his head and went through his dumbshow again. Cullen guessed earache this time. Nick threw his hands up and went over to his bike. The paint, was scraped, but it didn’t seem hurt. He got on and pedaled a little way up the street. Yes, it was all right. Cullen jogged alongside, smiling happily. His eyes never left Nick. He hadn’t seen anyone for most of a week.
“Don’t you feel like talkin?” he asked, but Nick didn’t look around or appear to have heard. Tom tugged at his sleeve and repeated his question.
The man on the bike put his hand over his mouth and shook his head. Tom frowned. Now the man had put his bike on its kickstand and was looking at the storefronts. He seemed to see what he wanted, because he went over to the sidewalk and then to Mr. Norton’s drugstore. If he wanted to go in there it was just too bad, because the drug was locked up. Mr. Norton had left town. Just about everybody had locked up and left town, it seemed like, except for Mom and her friend Mrs. Blakely, and they were both dead.
Now the no-talking-man was trying the door. Tom could have told him it was no use even though the OPEN sign was on the door. The OPEN sign was a liar. Too bad, because Tom would dearly have loved an ice cream soda. It was a lot better than the whiskey, which had made him feel good at first and then made him sleepy and then had made his head ache fit to split. He had gone to sleep to get away from the headache but he had had a lot of crazy dreams about a man in a black suit like the one that Revrunt Deiffenbaker always wore. The man in the black suit chased him through the dreams. He seemed like a very bad man to Tom. The only reason he had gone to drinking in the first place was because he wasn’t supposed to, his daddy had told him that, and Mom too, but now everyone was gone, so what? He would if he wanted to.
But what was the no-talking-man doing now? Picked up the litter basket from the sidewalk and he was going to… what? Break Mr. Norton’s window? CRASH! By God and by damn if he didn’t! And now he was reaching through, unlocking the door…
“Hey, mister, you can’t do that!” Tom cried, his voice throbbing with outrage and excitement. “That’s illegal! M-O-O-N and that spells il -legal. Don’t you know—”
But the man was already inside and he never turned around.
“What are you, anyway, deaf?” Tom called indignantly. “My laws! Are you…”
He trailed off. The animation and excitement left his face. He was the robot with the pulled plug again. In May it had not been an, uncommon sight to see Feeble Tom like this. He would be walking along the street, looking into shop windows with that eternally happy expression on his slightly rounded Scandahoovian face, and all of a sudden he would stop dead and go blank. Someone might shout, “There goes Tom! ” and there would be laughter. If Tom’s daddy was with him he would scowl and elbow Tom, perhaps even sock him repeatedly on the shoulder or the back until Tom came to life. But Tom’s daddy had been around less and less over the first half of 1988 because he was stepping out with a redheaded waitress who worked at Boomer’s Bar & Grille. Her name was DeeDee Packalotte (and weren’t there some jokes about that name), and about a year ago she and Don Cullen run off together. They had been seen just once, in a cheap fleabag motel not far away, in Slapout, Oklahoma, and that had been the last of them.
Most folks took Tom’s sudden blankouts as a further sign of retardation, but they were actually instances of nearly normal thinking. The human thinking process is based (or so the psychologists tell us) on deduction and induction, and the retarded person is incapable of making these deductive and inductive leaps. There are lines down somewhere inside, circuits shorted out, fouled switches. Tom Cullen was not severely retarded, and he was capable of making simple connections. Every now and then—during his blankouts—he would be capable of making a more sophisticated inductive or deductive connection. He would feel the possibility of making such a connection the way a normal person will sometimes feel a name dancing “right on the tip of his tongue.” When it happened, Tom would dismiss his real world, which was nothing more or less than an instant-by-instant flow of sensory input, and go into his mind. He would be like a man in a darkened unfamiliar room who holds the plug-end of a lampcord in one hand and who goes crawling around on the floor, bumping into things and feeling with his free hand for the electrical socket. And if he found it he didn’t always—there would be a burst of illumination and he would see the room (or the idea) plain. Tom was a sensory creature. A list of his favorite things would have included the taste of an ice cream soda at Mr. Norton’s fountain, watching a pretty girl in a short dress waiting on the corner to cross the street, the smell of lilac, the feel of silk. But more than any of these things he loved the intangible, he loved that moment when the connection would be made, the switch cleared (at least momentarily), the light would go on in the dark room. It didn’t always happen; often the connection eluded him. This time it didn’t.
He had said, What are you, anyway, deaf?
The man hadn’t acted like he heard what Tom was saying except for those times he had been looking right at him. And the man hadn’t said anything to him, not even hi. Sometimes people didn’t answer Tom when he asked questions because something in his face told them he was soft upstairs. But when that happened, the person who wouldn’t answer looked mad or sad or kind of blushy. This man didn’t act like that—he had given Tom a circle made of his thumb and forefinger and Tom knew that meant Okey Dokey… but still he didn’t talk.
Hands over his ears and a shake of his head.
Hands over his mouth and the same.
Hands over his neck and the same again.
The room lit up: connection made.
“My laws!” Tom said, and the animation came back into his face. His bloodshot eyes glowed. He rushed into Norton’s Drugstore, forgetting that it was illegal to do so. The no-talking-man was squirting something that smelled like Bactine onto cotton and was then wiping the cotton on his forehead.
“Hey mister!” Tom said, rushing up. The no-talking-man didn’t turn around. Tom was momentarily puzzled, and then he remembered. He tapped Nick on the shoulder and Nick turned. “You’re deaf n dumb, right? Can’t hear! Can’t talk! Right?”
Nick nodded. And to him, Tom’s reaction was nothing short of amazing. He jumped into the air and clapped his hands wildly.
“I thought of it! Hooray for me! I thought of it myself! Hooray for Tom Cullen!”
Nick had to grin. He couldn’t remember when his disability had brought someone so much pleasure.

“What do we do with him?” Ken DeMott asked.
“Let him sleep,” Lloyd answered. “Flagg wants him.”
“Yeah? Where the Christ is Flagg, anyway?” another asked. Lloyd turned to look at the man, who was balding and stood a full foot taller than Lloyd. Nonetheless, he drew back a step at Lloyd’s gaze. The stone around Lloyd’s neck was the only one that was not solid jet; in the center gleamed a small and disquieting red flaw.
“Are you that anxious to see him, Hec?” Lloyd asked.
“No,” the balding man said. “Hey, Lloyd, you know I didn’t—”
“Sure.” Lloyd looked down at the man sleeping on the blackjack table. “Flagg will be around,” he said. “He’s been waiting for this guy. This guy is something special.”
On the table, oblivious of all this, Trashcan Man slept on.
Trash and The Kid spent the night of July 18 in a motel in Golden, Colorado. The Kid picked two rooms with a connecting door. The connecting door was locked. The Kid, now well in the bag, solved this minor problem by blowing the lock off with three bullets from one of his .45s.
The Kid raised one tiny boot and kicked the door. It shuddered open in a fine blue haze of gunsmoke.
“Betcha fuckin A,” he said. “Which room? Take your pick, Trashy.”
Trashcan Man opted for the room on the right, and for a while was left alone. The Kid had gone out someplace. Trashcan Man was slowly considering the idea of simply fading away into the gloom before something really bad could happen—trying to balance that possibility against his lack of transportation—when The Kid returned. Trashcan Man was alarmed to see that he was pushing a shopping cart which was full of six-packs of Coors beer. The doll’s eyes were now bloodshot and rimmed with red. The pompadour hairdo was coming unraveled like a broken and expanding clockspring, and greasy bunches of hair now hung down over The Kid’s ears and cheeks, making him look like some dangerous (albeit absurd) caveman who had found a leather jacket left by a time-traveler and put it on.

But they saw no one that day, and on the tenth it was Julie Lawry they ran across.
The day was another scorcher. They had pedaled most of the afternoon with their shirts tied around their waists, and both of them were getting brown as Indians. They hadn’t been making very good time, not today, because of the apples. The green apples.
They had found them growing on an old apple tree in a farmyard, green and small and sour, but they had both been deprived of fresh fruit for a long time, and they tasted ambrosial. Nick made himself stop after two, but Tom ate six, greedily, one after the other, right down to the cores. He had ignored Nick’s motions that he should stop; when he got an idea in his head, Tom Cullen could be every bit as attractive as a wayward child of four.
So, beginning around eleven in the morning and continuing through the rest of the afternoon, Tom had the squats. Sweat ran off him in small creeks. He groaned. He had to get off his bike and walk it up even shallow hills. Despite his irritation at the poor time they were making, Nick couldn’t help a certain rueful amusement.
When they reached the town of Pratt around 4 P.M., Nick decided that was it for the day. Tom collapsed gratefully on a bus-stop bench in the shade and dozed off at once. Nick left him there and went along the deserted business section in search of a drugstore. He would get some Pepto-Bismol and force Tom to drink it when he woke up, whether Tom wanted to or not. If it took a whole bottle to cork Tom up, so be it. Nick wanted to make up some time tomorrow.
He found a Rexall between the Pratt Theater and the local Norge. He slipped in through the open door, and stood for a moment smelling the familiar hot, unaired, stale smell. There were other odors mixed in, strong and cloying. Perfume was the strongest. Perhaps some of the bottles had burst in the heat.
Nick glanced around, looking for the stomach medicines, trying to remember if Pepto-Bismol went over in the heat. Well, the label would say. His eyes slipped past a mannequin and two rows to the right he saw what he wanted. He had taken two steps that way when he realized that he had never before seen a mannequin in a drugstore.
He looked back and what he saw was Julie Lawry.
She was standing perfectly still, a bottle of perfume in one hand, the small glass wand you used to daub the stuff on in the other. Her china-blue eyes were wide in stunned, disbelieving surprise. Her brown hair was drawn back and tied with a brilliant silk scarf that hung halfway down her back. She was wearing a pink middy sweater and bluejeans shorts that were almost abbreviated enough to be mistaken for panties. There was a rash of pimples on her forehead and a hell of a good one right in the middle of her chin.
She and Nick stared at each other across half the length of the deserted drugstore, both frozen now. Then the bottle of perfume dropped from her fingers, shattered like a bomb, and a hothouse reek filled the store, making it smell like a funeral parlor.
“Jesus, are you real?” she asked in a trembling voice.
Nick’s heart had begun to race, and he could feel his blood thudding crazily in his temples. Even his eyesight had begun to wham in and out a little, making dots of light race across his field of vision.
He nodded.
“You ain’t a ghost?”
He shook his head.
“Then say somethin. If you ain’t a ghost, say somethin.”
Nick put a hand across his mouth, then on his throat.
“What’s that s’posed to mean?” Her voice had taken on a slightly hysterical tone. Nick couldn’t hear it… but he could sense it, see it on her face. He was afraid to step toward her, because if he did, she would run. He didn’t think she was afraid of seeing another person; what she was afraid of was that she was seeing a hallucination, and she was cracking up. Again, he felt that wave of frustration. If he could only talk —
Instead, he went through his pantomime again. It was, after all, the only thing he could do. This time understanding dawned.
“You can’t talk? You’re a mute?”
Nick nodded.
She gave a high laugh that was mostly frustration. “You mean somebody finally showed up and it’s a mute guy?”

Phoebe (moon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Phoebe is an irregular satellite of Saturn. It is thought to be a captured planetesimal from the Kuiper belt. It was discovered by William Henry Pickering on 17 March 1899 from photographic plates that had been taken starting on 16 August 1898 at the Boyden Observatory near Arequipa, Peru, by DeLisle Stewart. It was the first satellite to be discovered photographically.

Callisto (moon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Callisto (Jupiter IV) is a moon of the planet Jupiter. It was discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei. It is the third-largest moon in the Solar System and the second largest in the Jovian system, after Ganymede. Callisto has about 99% the diameter of the planet Mercury but only about a third of its mass. It is the fourth Galilean moon of Jupiter by distance, with an orbital radius of about 1,880,000 km. It does not form part of the orbital resonance that affects three inner Galilean satellites—Io, Europa and Ganymede—and thus does not experience appreciable tidal heating. Callisto's rotation is tidally locked to its revolution around Jupiter, so that the same hemisphere always faces inward; Jupiter appears to stand still in Callisto's sky. Callisto is less affected by Jupiter's magnetosphere than the other inner satellites because it orbits farther away.

Nereid, also known as Neptune II, is the third-largest moon of Neptune. It has a highly eccentric orbit. Nereid was discovered by Gerard Kuiper in 1949 and was the second moon of Neptune to be discovered.
Orbit and rotation
Nereid orbits Neptune in the prograde direction at an average distance of 5,513,400 km (3,425,900 mi), but its high eccentricity of 0.7507 takes it as close as 1,372,000 km (853,000 mi) and as far as 9,655,000 km (5,999,000 mi) from the planet.

There must be security for all, or no one is secure. Now, this does not mean giving up any freedom, except the freedom to act irresponsibly. Your ancestors knew this when they made laws to govern themselves and hired policemen to enforce them. We, of the other planets, have long accepted this principle.

Jet Carrying 293 Crashes, Burns in Iowa; 166 Survive
July 20, 1989|J. MICHAEL KENNEDY and BOB BAKER | Times Staff Writers
SIOUX CITY, Iowa — A crippled United Airlines DC-10 crashed a half-mile short of a runway while trying to make an emergency landing Wednesday afternoon, bursting into a cartwheeling fireball that broke into what one eyewitness described as "15,000 pieces" and killing at least 123 of the 293 passengers and crew members on board.
Remarkably, as many as 166 persons survived the violent crash, according to Richard Vohs, a spokesman for Iowa Gov. Terry E. Branstad. The fate of four others was not immediately known.
Tail Engine Explodes
The plane's tail engine exploded before the crash but it was not immediately clear how the explosion contributed to what a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman called "complete hydraulic failure," an occurrence regarded as extremely rare in the wide-bodied DC-10, which has three independent hydraulic systems that operate all the plane's control surfaces on its wings and tail, and landing gear and brakes.
As rescuers worked underneath floodlights to remove bodies from the crash site, original estimates of the death toll--one as high as 190, which would have made the crash the second worst in U.S. history--were reduced.
"We don't have a firm count" of the dead, Vohs acknowledged at a press conference seven hours after the crash. "But right now, the number (of survivors) confirmed is 166."
The survivors of Wednesday's United Flight 232 from Denver to Philadelphia via Chicago included several dozen passengers who managed to walk out of a dark, smoke-filled, upside-down section of the jet after it broke off and came to rest in a tall cornfield off the runway.
"I walked out (through the back of the plane) and found myself in the cornfield," passenger David Landsberger told Cable News Network. "We were all walking around in shock. I just walked through it like it was a dream. I was a little dazed."
"It's the goddamndest thing I ever saw in my life," said Charles Mertz of Castle Rock, Colo., another of those who walked away.
Suitcases, paper, mail, clothes, chunks of burning metal and bodies were strewn over the inactive runway at Sioux Gateway Airport, where the plane crashed after desperately circling for a half-hour.
One hundred ambulances, fire trucks and helicopters from as far away as South Dakota plucked out the victims. The search for bodies was difficult because some of them were scattered in the cornfield. Many of the survivors were listed in critical condition with burns or broken bones.
United Airlines declined to comment on the number of survivors or to release the names of the 282 passengers and 11 crew members.

PILOT'S SKILL CREDITED FOR SAVING 176
DC-10 LOST PARTS BEFORE CRASH-LANDING
By AP, Reuters
Published: Thursday, July 20 1989 12:00 a.m. MDT
The skill of a veteran pilot may have saved the lives of the 176 people who survived a fiery crash of a United Airlines DC-10 as it made an emergency landing Wednesday afternoon.
For 30 gut-wrenching minutes before the crash, the pilot struggled to fly the disabled plane 50 miles - after the tail cone section fell off - to the Sioux City airport.Then, as emergency personnel watched helplessly, the huge plane slammed down on the runway, flipped over, lost its wings and burst into a huge fireball, spewing wreckage and bodies into an adjacent cornfield. Yet many walked away from the flaming wreckage, and at least 176 survived.

PILOT'S SKILL CREDITED FOR SAVING 176
DC-10 LOST PARTS BEFORE CRASH-LANDING
By AP, Reuters

The skill of a veteran pilot may have saved the lives of the 176 people who survived a fiery crash of a United Airlines DC-10 as it made an emergency landing Wednesday afternoon.
For 30 gut-wrenching minutes before the crash, the pilot struggled to fly the disabled plane 50 miles - after the tail cone section fell off - to the Sioux City airport.Then, as emergency personnel watched helplessly, the huge plane slammed down on the runway, flipped over, lost its wings and burst into a huge fireball, spewing wreckage and bodies into an adjacent cornfield. Yet many walked away from the flaming wreckage, and at least 176 survived.
"Our pilot was a hero. He really saved our butts," said John Transue, 40, a survivor of the crash.
The airline also praised the pilot, A.C. Haynes of Seattle, a 30-year veteran who fought for 45 minutes to bring the plane in for an emergency landing after an apparent explosion in an engine damaged its controls.
Survivors painted a picture of calm in the moments before the impact, as the pilot warned all aboard to brace for a rough landing. Those who survived described the aftermath as horrifying.
"I thought I was going to die," said 8-year-old Ben Radtke of Prarie View, Ill., who was carried out of the fractured fuselage by a passenger. The boy, shaking but unhurt, clutched a United Airlines button and a pair of plastic pilot's wings as he spoke.
National Guardsmen scoured the cornfield Thursday for survivors or victims. But CNN reported that emergency officials believe most of the 43 missing were in the fuselage and likely did not survive.
Rescuers found 74 bodies from the crash of United Airlines Flight 232, some scattered on an inactive Sioux Gateway Airport runway, some strapped to their seats and some in a field of corn 4 feet high.
A flight recorder also was recovered, authorities said.
Flight 232, from Denver to Philadelphia via Chicago, carried 11 crew members and 282 passengers, including three infants, said United spokesman Lawrence Nagin.
The Seattle-based cockpit crew survived and was being treated for injuries at a hospital, Nagin said.
In addition to Haynes, a 33-year United veteran, the crew included First Officer W.R. Records and Second Officer D.J. Dvorak.
The 15-year-old jumbo jet had "complete hydraulic failure" before Wednesday afternoon's crash, Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Fred Farrar said.
Hydraulic systems provide power steering that allows pilots to manipulate the wing and tail controls of the jumbo jet. Without it, aviation officials say the plane would be uncontrollable.
The tail engine failed, and this may have caused a hydraulic failure, said Bob Raynesford, another FAA spokesman. The plane's three independent hydraulic systems are routed to the tail section.
Nagin said he did not know if hydraulic problems were a factor.
The crash left a swath of charred runway and strewed bits of people's lives over an area larger than three football fields: two sets of golf clubs, a wallet photo of a brunette in her prom dress, a Reebok tennis shoe, a purple hairdryer, one black high-heeled shoe and a collection of Marilyn Monroe photographs.
Parts of the plane, apparently from the tail piece and engine, were found about 50 miles away.
Four people near Alta, 55 miles east of Sioux City, discovered one piece, 6 or 7 feet high and 6 feet long, in a corn field.
Four miles away, Allen and Phil Jahde found three pieces of the plane scattered in their cornfield. Phil Jahde said one piece was a 6-foot-long metal band, engraved ENG 2.
"It's remarkable to us that he made it that far back with the pieces he's losing," he said.

Okay, all right, we're obviously looking at a picture of the cover stones. Now, on the outer track, these figures that you would believe to be words to be translated were, in fact...
[He stands again and shuffles his papers, pushing some larger pieces aside and into some people next to him to roll out a star chart.]
DANIEL
—sorry about that—were in fact star constellations. Now these constellations were placed in a unique order forming a map or an address of sorts. Seven points to outline a course to a position.
[Daniel turns to the metal wall behind him, on which a picture of the cover stones has already been taped. He tapes up another paper and begins to draw on it. O'Neil lights a cigarette.]
DANIEL
And uh...to find a destination within any three dimensional space, you need six points to determine the exact location.
[Daniel draws a cube and places a dot in the center of each of the six "sides" of the cube and then draws lines between them all to intersect at a spot in the cube.]
WEST
You said you needed seven points.
DANIEL
Well, no, six for the destination. But to chart a course, you need a point of origin.
[He draws a point some distance from a cube and then a line to where all the cube spots intersect.]
MYERS
Except there's only six symbols in the cartouche.
DANIEL
Well, the seventh actually isn't inside the cartouche, it's just below it, here designated by a little pyramid with two funny neat little guys and funny little line coming out of the top.
[He circles an upside down v that has a symbol above its apex and two human-like figures on each side of the "v" shape and then proceeds to draw it again roughly on the wall next to his chart while he talks. When finished, he laughs at his bad drawing. No one else laughs.]
DANIEL
Anyway...
CATHERINE
He did it.
MYERS
No. That symbol isn't anywhere on the device.
DANIEL
Uh-what device? Um?
[West looks to O'Neil, who shrugs.]
WEST
Show him.
[Shore squeezes Catherine's hand as they both smile. Kawalski stands and goes over by Daniel, pressing a button. The metal "wall" Daniel has been using as a dry erase board is actually a blast shield that rises. Daniel looks out of the window into the room beyond. The Stargate sits there. A metal ramp is in front of it, and various personnel are working around it. Catherine comes up to stand beside Daniel.]
DANIEL
What is that?
CATHERINE
It's your Stargate.
