Sure, you might be thinking of the movie G-Force, but this is nothing like that. Three animals (a dog, “1”, a cat, “2”, and a bunny, “3”) are all placed into this experimental program and unleashed on training exercises. The story revolves around a secret government program that takes house pets and turn them into killing machines. WE3 is just as bad ass and as bloody as anything Morrison writes. WE3 has intrigued me because it’s actually one of the few works of Morrison’s to be in production at a studio, and by the director of Kung Fu Panda no less! Could the guy who wrote The New Adventures Of Hitler and cut Magneto’s head off really be going soft on us? WE3 is so short and sweet that I figured I could read it in half an hour, and I did. Basically, I’ve found every last thing I could of his and plan to read it all, bit by bit. In case you guys haven’t noticed, I’ve been reading a lot of Morrison lately. The Puppeteer brain is housed not in the heads, but in the "thoracic" cavity well protected beneath the mane-covered hump from which the heads emerge. The heads are small, containing a forked tongue, rubbery lips rimmed with finger-like knobs, and a single eye per head. Pierson's Puppeteers are described by Niven as having two forelegs and a single hindleg ending in hoofed feet, and two snake-like heads instead of a humanoid upper body. The group name they use for their own species translates as "Citizens". Puppeteers' names for themselves are reportedly highly complex, and unpronounceable by humans. Puppeteers dealing with humans usually give themselves the names of centaurs and other figures in Greek mythology, such as Nessus, Nike and Chiron. According to the Niven story The Soft Weapon, Pierson was a crewman aboard a spaceship at a time when there was a camp revival of the ancient Time for Beany TV show featuring Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent, an animated character based on a hand puppet Pierson accordingly described the alien he had met as a Puppeteer, given some resemblance of the head and neck with Cecil. The sobriquet "Pierson's" comes from the name of the human who made first contact in the early 26th century in the Known Space timeline. Illustration of Pierson's Puppeteer from Barlowe's Guide to Extraterrestrials Biology and sociology People best know British theologian and writer Edwin Abbott Abbott for his imaginative satirical novella Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions (1884). "Instructive, entertaining, and stimulating to the imagination." - Mathematics Teacher. Charmingly illustrated by the author, Flatland is not only fascinating reading, it is still a first-rate fictional introduction to the concept of the multiple dimensions of space. Through strange occurrences that bring him into contact with a host of geometric forms, Square has adventures in Spaceland (three dimensions), Lineland (one dimension) and Pointland (no dimensions) and ultimately entertains thoughts of visiting a land of four dimensions-a revolutionary idea for which he is returned to his two-dimensional world. Square, a mathematician and resident of the two-dimensional Flatland, where women-thin, straight lines-are the lowliest of shapes, and where men may have any number of sides, depending on their social status. Abbott (1838-1926), it describes the journeys of A. The work of English clergyman, educator and Shakespearean scholar Edwin A. This masterpiece of science (and mathematical) fiction is a delightfully unique and highly entertaining satire that has charmed readers for more than 100 years.

Looking for your next read? You’re in luck because today i’m compiling a list of books like It Happened One Summer by Tessa Baliey! This blog post contains affiliate links, no extra cost to you, thank you for your support! The first sentence of the novel - “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife” - is perhaps the most artful way of saying that if a girl catches a man’s interest, he’ll want to sleep with her, and it’s been that way since the beginning of time. And Elizabeth's zinger toward the heinous Miss Bingley - “have you any thing else to propose for my domestic felicity?” - should be a feminist bumper sticker of the first order.īut what irony and wit might overshadow is the weight of Austen’s words in terms of parsing human nature. That was certainly the case - the scene wherein our bourgeois heroine Elizabeth Bennet holds her ground against keeper-of-the-old-guard Lady de Bourgh is the best (“your name will never even be mentioned by any of us,” “These are heavy misfortunes”). I came around to it having heard enough people insist that Austen did indeed have a sharp sense of the language, and that in the interest of reading some good verbal sparring, Pride and Prejudice would be worth the while. I understood her work to be girly, romantic, Victorian fluff, and as goes the common fallacy, I figured it had nothing to say to me about my life - since that’s why anyone reads anything anyway. But there were other reasons just as influential as they were crass. None of her novels were required reading in school, which is probably my main justification. For several reasons, I hadn’t read Jane Austen up until a couple of weeks ago. Booked on a charge of felony heroin possession and a drug paraphernalia misdemeanor, police released Sechrist after 43 days behind bars. A test revealed that the substance was heroin.
