science fiction
The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

Kyoto Protocol
A mysterious signal radically shifts the destiny of an entire world... 5th of Harvest. 3314 It was a night like any other night. I was monitoring the equipment of the Lethian Radio Observatory, starting at a screen waiting for something to happen. As I sat there nearly napping, head nodding and eyes to glassy, static erupted from the speakers, launching my heart to the ceiling.

Doctor Who: Heralds Of Destruction Review
Ever since Doctor Who came back to our screens in 2005, it seems as though past doctors have been sidelined somewhat in prose. Indeed the novel range featuring them disappeared, there have only been sporadic novels since then, and their appearances in multi-Doctor comic arcs. It's only been in the last couple of years that Titan Comics has sought to readdress the balance somewhat with a string of miniseries featuring past Doctors. The latest features the Third Doctor (played on-screen by Jon Pertwee between 1970 and 1974) and sees a return to Who by writer Paul Cornell. Cornell's past Who works include both the novel and later TV adaptation of Human Nature as well as the 2005 episode Father's Day and the groundbreaking 1991 Who novel Timewyrm: Revelation. He was also, back in the day, not a fan of this era at all. Which makes it all the more interesting that what he wrote is essentially something of a blast from the past for this Doctor and Cornell's apparent farewell to Who as a writer.

Welcome back! As the last article stated we would be basically be reviewing and providing perspective while applying common sense in chronological order to these vast ancient texts spanning over the various types of ancient Cuneiform as well as Egyptian Hieroglyphics, which reveal in great detail not only our origins but obvious forms of advanced technology, and when I say advanced, I don't mean outrageously advanced such as teleportation, but rather think about the whole Steampunk aesthetic with a digital edge, combined with classical Greek attire and a preordained contract with royal customs, these guys go hard in the paint when it comes to tradition! So anyways, here's how it goes, I start with a date, provide an overview of the events according to their history and numerics, which ultimately perfectly time up with things like the archeological record and our own timeline of modern events, then a review of those events individually with a common sense perspective of my own, keep in mind that everything is up for interpretation, here goes!

There was a man standing at the foot of the stairs talking to the proprietor. He was short, dressed in a black suit, a black trilby on his head. While they watched he took off the hat and ran a hand over his short hair before accepting a glass of water. They watched him drain it and hand it back, with his hat, to the proprietor.

Somewhere Between debuted on ABC last night. It has possibilities, including exploration of time travel, always one of my favorite kinds of narrative.

Well, Agent Cooper finally got a piece of cherry pie in Twin Peaks: The Return 1.11 last night -- in fact, two slices! -- as well as his life being spared by Jim Belushi's character and his dream. But, alas, even this double cherry pie is not enough to rouse Cooper out of his stupor. He needs to "wake up!" as that little man from the other dimension told him now some number of episodes ago.
