 Time Team programs are a good complement to time travel fiction and used to be regularly on in the UK. A lot is possibly accessible on Youtube.
Congratulations on 100 Verity official podcasts!
ha! so simple!
You mention Moffat’s penchant for screwball comedy in this one. Perhaps that explains the continuing motif of the young female companion flying around with the older Doctor which is reminiscent of the Cary Grant and Doris Day movie, The Touch of Mink, where Grant is going to have Day travel with him. This is not just Moffat, but given the progression of so much else and yet we get the same Doctor/Female Companion relationship. Perhaps the next companion(s) will move things away from the now tried and true and rather stale Rose/Martha/Amy/Clara paradigm to something different. And perhaps somebody who doesn’t want to see the universe with the Doctor.
There is confusion at 42 minute mark. River didt send the guy to look for The Doctor. He got lost a bit and instead finding the surgeon he find the doctor.
I’ve been waiting for this Singing Towers story ever since Tennant’s departure from the show was announced!!!!! I agree that we NEED some Capaldi/Kingston stories; they work well together.I always wished I had an artistic talent of some sort. Lately, some friends of mine even diagnosed me to be a latent artist.I
The truth is however that I do not have this apparently innate facility which impresses us so strongly. I cannot draw, I sing out of tune and I am unable to play any instrument.
Yet, those artists which impress us would be the first to remind that what seems to be so easy for them is the fruit of hard work. I tried to begin working on those. I draw simple things sometimes but it is not very convincing yet. A friend of mine makes me notice each time I am out of tune, and I even bought a guitar from a friend (though I did not find the time to learn how to play it yet). There was a time when I edited videos as a dilettante, too, and the result was generally much appreciated, but taking time to make the slightest detail right made the editing of a video quite long.
I cannot believe I will be a performer in any of these arts. There is one last art I always felt attracted to: writing. I even tried some poetry when I was younger. I was proud of it at the time, but it was just child-written poems. I tried again later, with variable degrees of success.
My closest friend often asks me to proofread her written works, and thinks my writing is “excellent” (this is the word she used), but I never wrote any long fictions. I sometimes began some drafts, but always abandoned them soon after having begun.
Plus, writing takes three things: time, motivation/energy and inspiration. The hardest thing to find for me is inspiration. I usually have a beginning or a main idea, but generally no idea of where I want it to go or end.
Time is another difficulty: in today’s life, finding a slot you can use for yourself (while preserving enough sleep) can be a challenge. And the third problem is that often, when I manage to find time, I am usually worn out.
But then I realized: writing is what I do for a living. Not in a language most people can appreciate, not in a way that will make me recognized for any artistic talent, but still. Coding is writing.
Taking some words and punctuation, starting from nothing, assembling them in a correct way, you just create something new for others to enjoy.
There are all the same problems. You have ways to mistreat the language, and you also have several correct ways. And of course, you have some beautiful way, which are those I hope to find when I am coding. Of course, mastering the language when writing code and when writing fiction are not the same things.
The point is: I am already writing. And this is what I love about my job: when writing, I usually lack the inspiration, and I wish I had an idea tank to develop upon. At my work, I am given the ideas and asked to write them. There are constraints, of course, and sometimes I am not allowed to search for my ideal syntax, but on the whole, I just found a job matching my vocation.
Now I wish to write things anybody can read, so I will have a new take on some fictions I have been nurturing in my head for some time. Not sure I will not abandon them in some weeks too, but I will never know I if do not try. Ideas are getting more complex, and at some point, they must be shared, proved against a touchstone, and I guess I will never know their value if I do not take time to put them on paper.
Well, in a file actually. About this, I might publish a roundup of writing tools I used or discovered lately or earlier.In Poland one of the penguins at Warsaw Zoo was destined to die slowly after a fight that took place last month. Just like any other bird the penguin didn’t have a name. It broke its neb, and as a result it couldn’t eat or preen. Scientists are planning to make use of 3D printing and scanning to save its life. The plan is to scan a beak of another diseased penguin, to transmit 3D data to a 3D printer and to make a new beak of high-tech eco plastic. To do this, scientists will need an Omni 3D printer – the first machine to make ready orthopedic beaks.
The beak, from which they are going to make the model for the printed version, has started to putrefy, so printing a new one was a challenging task. If the new beak doesn’t fit right, scientists together with Bartek Jarkiewicz, of MTT Polska, will produce some new ones the next week. Bartek also told, that at first they knew nothing about birds, and first they went to the zoo to see, if 3D printing has ever been used in that way. The outcome of the project is yet unknown, but new information is to appear soon. The scientists’ success is likely to become the second known in this sphere. It was the bald eagle in the States that got a new prosthetic device in 2012.
The fix provided so far (see below) has failed. Has anybody else seen this problem before? I suspect the my BB is switched off at the exchange, but can't be sure.
5. Once you are on the Zyxel Router landing page please click on Network Setting option at the bottom of the screen, then click on Broadband. Here you can see a grid with several entries.
7. the next will depend is you are setting up an ADSL or VDSL (Fibre) connection. For the corresponding entry, follow it to the right and click on the edit icon which looks like like a pencil and paper.
8. Then click the apply button, and the router should connect to the internet.
Welcome to the Plusnet forum. As you're a John Lewis customer do not be surprised if this post is moved to the everything else board.
Having said this the report says your router is connected to the exchange (it is in sync) so the problem is either due to you not entering the password correctly, a problem in the exchange in that your line is not being connected to JL properly or JL have failed to set up your account properly. The best way to check your user name and password is to see if you can log into your JL account using them. One mistake people use when setting up the router is to use either the router or wifi password instead of the account one. Failing that I'm afraid that you will have to talk to JL. Although there is a supply connection between JL and Plusnet they are run separately. It was the lack of a forum that put me off going to JL.
Thank you for your response and insights. I can login to my JL account, wifi, router, and I believe my JL authentication login to be correct. I have raised a query and have been in contact with JL from over 2 weeks ago but the problem remains unsolved. I am close to switching to another supplier as the only way to get a BB connection back.What makes us human? How did the human mind evolve? What makes us different from other animals? Is it our language? Culture? Consciousness? Mind reading? In order to tackle these questions we need to investigate and understand how other animals behave, communicate and think. This course aims to give you an appreciation of the key similarities and differences between communication and social cognition in humans and other animals. This may challenge your preconceptions about what animals are capable of and further your understanding of what it means to be human.
How can we study the animal mind and how can this help us understand human evolution?
