The Waters of Mars Publicity Stills Writ Large

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 3:11 PM
This are the full-octane versions of yesterday's nonspoilery images, which I didn't want to throw in with the icons post since these are HUGE. Thanks to D-T.com (and their newly resurrected galleries) for these versions!

Be warned, these are large! )

Doctor Who Icons: The Waters of Mars Promo Shots

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 1:47 PM
Behind the cut are icons from a couple of the nonspoilery Radio Times promo shots. And the shots themselves, for good measure. Just a smattering, so no table this time.

Icons behind the cut. )

Stand back! I'm about to make SCIENCE!

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 10:19 AM
Okay, so I don't understand exactly what it is she's making or what you do with them, but this woman? My new hero. She replaced a process that used $100,000 fabricating machines with.... Shrinky-Dinks. No, I am not shitting you. She's custom-manufacturing high-tech devices in a matter of minutes using shrinky-dinks and a toaster oven. This technology can be used in stem cell research, and she also sees applications for making solar cells more efficient. She's like MacGyver, only super-hot and probably like... a million times smarter. In fact, she and MacGyver should have little MacGyver-like children, who will inevitably RULE THE WORLD.

This picture of the core of the Milky Way is ridiculously beautiful. I want to wallpaper a room with it so when you step inside it's like you're at the center of the galaxy. That would be so freaking awesome. Almost as awesome as actually being in space. Almost.

Smalleye stingrays are actually quite large when it comes to their other body parts, and a BBC camera crew has for the first time captured one on film. It doesn't seem all that impressive until the diver starts swimming next to it and you're all, "OMG WTF GIANT STINGRAY!"

Apparently scientists have discovered the gene that causes age-related hearing loss in humans and have managed to prevent hearing loss in older mice by removing that gene. I'm taking this as yet another sign that the cyberpunk novels of my youth were on the right track with the future of medical technology.

I should note for the record that I do not like coffee. At all. But I do like the insane designs that the world's "baristas" make with said coffee. For instance, the universe in a cup or this super bad-ass dragon. This has nothing to do with science really (well, it does, but only in the way that all everyday things somehow have something to do with science), but I wanted to share.

You should know that this is how everything goes to hell during a zombie apocalypse. This is only marginally science-related, in that it shows us how science will be the doom of us aaaaaalllll.
Hi there! This is my new music video about Alt!Ten (human Doctor) and Rose. I hope you like it!

Alt!Ten/Rose - Only One

http://pics.livejournal.com/erychan86/pic/00102xpw

HERE @ [info]erychan86

Characters: Alt!Ten (Human Doctor), Rose Tyler and some fb about Ten!
Spoiler: Doctor Who 4x13
Song: Alex Band (The Calling) - Only One
Clips from: Doctor Who season 1,2,3,4, Doctor Who confidential, Doctor Who deleted scenes, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, Recovery, Secret Smile, Blackpool, Trick or Treat, Spirit Trap,...
Note: YAY I used footages from Recovery this time! I'm so happy I love that movie!
Description: The same old story: In the Parallel Universe the things between Ten and Rose seems to work pretty well but one day, Ten, brings out the truth (or better, what he thinks is true): he's not happy cos he's not himself anymore, he can't be the Doctor, the real one, but everytime he sees his face in the mirror he sees HIM (he even decides to grow a beard). He breaks up with Rose, even if he loves her so much, cos he thinks that she's settling for him because she can't have the "real one". Soon they realize - thinking about their memories - that they can't stay away from each other and that they only have one life to live, one love to give, one chance to keep from falling. Only One ! Rose realizes that she loves the human Doctor cos he's the same man, and Ten realizes that he can't throw away all the things he loves just because he's scared and, at the end...

Too much work to do.

Too much variation in meds.

Still too much work to do.

If I've missed anything particularly exciting, let me know in about three weeks. Also, does anyone know anything about group theory or the uses of prime numbers?

Think [info]alienish_being might do something. His life is more fun than mine.

EDIT: MELODRAMA IS FUN.

Fic: Ghosts of the Pit

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 5:35 AM
Title: Ghosts of the Pit
Author: meself, fid_gin
Pairing: Insinuated Tenth Doctor/Rose
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: I own nothing, all hail the BBC
Summary: The Doctor dons a familiar old space suit
Notes: I don't think I've actually written anything with original!Ten, post-JE, not in the Loved 'verse, but then I was inspired by a recent picture from the upcoming special The Waters of Mars, and this fic happened. Very short and very sad, be warned. Not really spoilery for TWoM beyond what you'd see in a preview, so if you're avoiding those avoid this.
Link goes to my journal.

Ghosts of the Pit
Title: The Imagination of Gaston Leroux (10/10)
Rating: PG
Characters: Nine, Rose, Jack, Ten, Jack (yes, twice), assorted others

Summary: Actresses disappear from the stage, the manager is strangely tight-lipped, and there’s an oddly knowledgeable woman in an apricot dress running here and there. Not to mention the overly enthusiastic journalist lurking in the shadows. Will the Doctor and his companions solve the mystery at the Opera Garnier – or will the story be forever changed?

[Naruto: sleight of hand]

  • Nov. 11th, 2009 at 9:49 PM
Title: Sleight of Hand
Fandom: Naruto
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 3194
Notes: I wrote this over a year ago for a fanbook ([info]lemontreeparade) that is taking an age to get off the ground, and I've waited for a long time, but I'm not waiting any longer. I want to archive this with the rest of my fic. If people want to buy the fanbook (which will contain a whole heap of stories, all of which -- including this one! -- will be accompanied by gorgeous illustrations) then they can, but I'm posting this now.

Sasuke/Naruto. Futurefic. Love is the hardest thing you will ever do in your life.

There is no such thing as magic. )
