"Chain of Attack" review

Novel from 1987, by Gene DeWeese. It builds on the storyline from The Abode of Life, where the Enterprise travelled through a dimensional gate to an altogether different galaxy. And it seems this plot would be continued in DeWeese's next novel, The Final Nexus. There's been an increasing interconnection between the TOS novels in recent entries. Here, for example, there are appearances of Lt. Tomson (from Dillard's books) and engineer Alec MacPherson (from Crisis on Centaurus).

The plot itself is suspenseful, and there's a mounting tension as the Enterprise gets into even greater danger each time. So it's a novel that reads fast and doesn't get boring. Where it falls short, in my opinion, is in the execution. The style is dry and overly expository, there's barely any humor, and not much in the way of characterization (for example, Spock does little more than recite numbers, until the very end). The middle part gets also a bit repetitive, with one encounter with hostile ships after another, and the setting rarely leaves the bridge. The ending, on the other hand, feels rushed and things get solved all too conveniently. So, even if the story could have been very well a TOS episode, with its theme of communication as basis to avoid conflict, the structure and style (maybe also the expansion of an episode to novel-length) somehow damage the result.

The guest character this time is your regular unsympathetic politician that's making things even harder for Kirk. There are frequent passages told from his point of view, which help to develop him as a character and show his descent into madness. Though as a villain, he's quite ineffectual, and I don't think his presence was necessary for the story. Still, I will take the annoying jerk any day before the annoying Mary Sue, thank you.

Spoilers under the cut:

The Enterprise is investigating a series of gravitational anomalies, using probes designed by Dr. Jason Crandall, who has come along as an observer (though he's more interested in his political career than science). Several probes have been lost through the anomalies, apparently transported parsecs away. Crandall is urging Kirk to abandon the investigation, as they seem incapable of learning anything about the dimensional gates. But suddenly, the Enterprise has the misfortune of passing through an undetected gate... And it has to be the worst possible gate as well, as it transports the ship millions of parsecs away, and further than any probe before.

The stars of the unknown galaxy where they pop up are densely clustered. But the scenario they find around, when they start searching hopelessly for the gate back home, is eerily desolate. All the planets they find, once habitable, appear now completely ravaged by advanced weaponry. To the point that life was wiped away thousands of years ago, never to sprout again due to the high radiation. Everyone is overwhelmed by the thought of such a civilization, so intent in total annihilation. On top of that, there's the fact that the crew may never return to their galaxy, as the gate seems to appear randomly or not at all. Kirk and McCoy are a bit "Meh! Anyway, our whole family is here aboard the Enterprise, so no big deal!" (didn't you have a daughter somewhere, McCoy?). But Crandall has a life, so he's... annoyed, to say the least. Other than this, they encounter a planet with unusual life readings well under the surface, but Kirk considers it's too dangerous to beam down through solid rock, so they forget about it for the time being.

When the Enterprise finally finds another ship, a somewhat obsolete model, they're greeted with a preemptive attack. And once the ship finds out it can't outmatch the Enterprise, it self-destructs with everyone aboard. Later, they find more of these ships, engaged in a battle against a different model. Kirk beams up one of the aliens from the new ship, before it explodes. The alien is humanoid but vaguely reptilian, and as soon as he wakes up... he explodes as well, injuring a nurse. They're more careful with the other three aliens rescued, and remove their suicide implants before waking them up. However, the creatures are frustratingly uncooperative, and refuse to even talk. Then Spock brings up his ultimate weapon: a PowerPoint presentation. Okay, it's not a PowerPoint, but close enough: a visual representation of everything the Enterprise has been through since it passed through the gate. The aliens finally understand they're not enemies, and start talking. The translator begins to collect data, and after a while, they're able to communicate. The reptilian aliens are the Hoshan, in perpetual war with another race, the Destroyers, whom they blame for the total destruction of planets in the sector. They've grown so distrustful of other ships, that they shoot first, and ask questions never.

Therefore, Kirk's next step is beaming up one of the so-called "Destroyers". Crandall thinks this is a good moment to attempt mutiny. He had misinterpreted McCoy's familiarity with Kirk as insubordination, and thought the doctor would go along with his plan to replace Kirk and Spock, whom Crandall considers incompetent and too lenient towards the Destroyers. Of course, Crandall ends up arrested in his quarters. Kirk goes ahead with his plans. The alien, this time, looks rather avian, and says his race are the Zeator. His version of the story is pretty much a reverse of the Hoshan's. Each race blames the other for destroying the worlds, despite neither having the sophisticated technology to do so, or having been around for so long. Their ongoing war is thus the result of a tragic misunderstanding, and lack of communication. Kirk sends the aliens back to their ships, in the hope that they'll reach a truce.

Sure enough, both the Hoshan and the Zeator start collaborating, and ask Kirk to be a mediator for their peace treaty. Only that they bring a full armada of ships to the peace talks, which seems... suspicious. After seeing the superior technology of the Enterprise, they've concluded that they're the actual destroyers of worlds. Crandall, who's been allowed in the bridge again, and has turned suicidal out of desperation, attacks Sulu just as he was about to raise the shields, so the enemy fire can destroy the ship. The Enterprise manages to escape, but badly damaged, and limps back to the initial spot of the gate. It's clear now that neither the Hoshan nor the Zeator built the gates, and they'll be of no help.

Just as they're passing by the planet with the unusual life readings, the whole crew is suddenly beamed down to the planet's underground. They all appear inside a huge cavern, surrounded by a force field that isolates them from a vacuum. And their equipment is out of reach, in the surrounding vacuum. Then the new aliens start transporting individuals to a different area, and try to learn their language through several lessons. But Kirk knows that, without their translators, it will take an eternity to communicate with them. When Spock and Crandall's turn arrives, the Vulcan seizes the opportunity to mind-meld with an alien woman. He notices she's somehow connected to a central computer, and through it, to hundreds of other aliens in suspended animation (that was the origin of the strange life readings). Spock achieves a sort of collective consciousness with the aliens and the whole crew of the Enterprise. Then, Spock induces the transporter operator to put them near the equipment, instead of back inside the force field. Crandall appears next to the equipment, but Spock is too far away and dying in the vacuum (though I don't know how they can survive even a single second IN a vacuum... Whatever). Crandall has understood through the mass mind-meld from before that Kirk and the crew never meant him ill, and realizes the wrong of his ways. In a final redemptive act, Crandall throws a survival gear at Spock, and then collapses. Armed with the translator, Spock is transported again near the aliens, and can communicate with them at last, and explain their predicament.

Everything is explained in the last few pages. The new aliens, called Aragos, are native also to the Milky Way, and arrived in that galaxy thousands of years ago through a gate. They took refuge under that planet from some attackers (the actual world destroyers? it's not very clear). And there they found the hibernation technology and the computer that controls it, so they waited for centuries until somebody came through the gates to rescue them. The central computer has a monitoring system for the gates, and thanks to this, the Enterprise finds the gate back home, and also brings the Aragos to their original planet. The Hoshan and Zeator, arranged around the gate, let the Enterprise pass at the last moment, once convinced that they're not responsible for the destruction of those worlds. A while later, Crandall, who is amazingly NOT dead after all, recovers in sickbay, and is promised an ambassador post at the Aragos planet.

Spirk Meter: 0/10*. Nothing comes to mind. Kirk seems to be closer to McCoy, actually. Though it's not enough to make me consider it a McKirk example.

Donald Trump is the reason I left Facebook after more than 10 years - I know many people find it hard to believe that social media is why so many people are brainwashed and cannot see the forest for the trees but Dr. Rose explains her journey (she says what I too learned years ago) and if people want to really see what is going on they need to get off social media. It serves no constructive purpose. ARTICLE

The Trump Assassination Attempt Getting Worse By The Day - anyone that thinks Trump planned his own assassination attempt you need a reality check. If there was any way the FBI/CIA or anyone in the Biden administration could tag this on Trump believe me they would have done so. It is so obvious this was an inside job. 1 min. VIDEO

George Orwell 1984 - how come he and others many, many decades ago knew what our future would be?? “1984” was written in 1949. I think it is because those that could see into the future have an uncanny understanding of the potential for evil in people. I don’t think he had a crystal ball. I think he knew that what took place in Nazi Germany could easily take over the world one day because there are many evil people in the world and many more that cannot comprehend such evil and easily become the victims of evil. 1 min. VIDEO

Bill That Would Give Illegal Immigrants up to $150,000 to Buy Homes Heads to Gavin Newsom’s Desk - funny what CA is doing is eerily similar to one of Kamala’s policies. I do not believe in this policy one bit but one must ask one self why are they doing this for illegals and not hard working, tax paying American citizens? It all adds up to VOTES. Democrats are the party of handouts (at our expense) in order to buy votes. Lyndon Johnson said it out loud. Welfare would keep the blacks voting Democrat forever. Instead of a hand up, a hand out. ARTICLE

The Compassion Cartel Getting Rich on Poverty by Tom Deweese - every angle governments push is never about helping anyone except the deep state. Poverty, transgenderism, LGBTQ, education vouchers, vaccines etc. etc. all of it designed to make others rich at the expense to the people they profess to serve - When will people wake up to the fact that our government does nothing for the people NOTHING. The issue is NEVER the issue folks!! - ARTICLE

Martin Armstrong: civil war dead ahead - I might be naive but the only civil war that will come from this election is if Trump is elected. The left is violent and we see that almost everyday. If they are successful in stealing another election from Trump and the American people I do not believe Trump supporters will resort to violence. 1. we KNOW that is what the left wants 2. And we KNOW there are other ways…..and there are other ways. ARTICLE

Under Tim Walz, Minnesota Banned Christians From Teaching In Public Schools - I have heard rumor that Walz is a homosexual but have never posted any of these rumors but the more factual information coming out about this man makes me wonder if the rumors just might be true. Regardless this alone is enough to understand where this guy is coming from. There is one easy solution for this……….do not attend college in Minnesota is you want to be a teacher and do not apply for a job to teach in Minnesota and if you are alread a teacher…..MOVE. When the public stands up and the schools start losing headcount and money they will then and only then fight back too - Thanks to Jackie W. - ARTICLE

1950s Swimsuit Glamor from Augusta Auctions

Were Fifties swimsuits glamorous or what? Yes, that is a white swim suit embroidered with gold lamé stems, and with gold lame straps. Another one with black lace overlay sprinkled with rhinestones, a more daring lingerie look. They really look more like something a chorus girl would dance in, but they were swimsuits.

True, it seems unlikely that gold lamé and rhinestones are really likely to survive a lot of time in the pool, but these were probably not made for meant for swimming laps. Can’t you image two women wearing them pool side, drinking tropical cocktails, looking flirty, and then announcing it was just too hot and dipping into the pool to cool off?

Augusta Auctions tells us the white one is made of a cotton/rubber/acetate blend and the black one, more vaguely, was synthetic. There are zippers along the center backs as designers did not have spandex to make them extra stretchy, so they needed some way to get you into a fitted garment. These suits cover far more than suits would later and were easier to wear as a result, but they do show off as much of the figure as anything that came later.

They were made by “Deweese Design, Swim & Sun Fashions Los Angeles California" according to the label. California had a post-war fashion cachet as the war industry had brought so many more people out west. Designers catered to the region’s longer seasons of sunshine which meant more people were spending time in outdoor living, including poolside. Postwar prosperity mean more people had the time and money to relax in the outdoors too. Yet, even sportswear, as you can see, could be fancy.

Digital Media Production Week 12 - Mock Press Conference

Jhttps://youtu.be/LYYEJNYWJso

1. The technical skills I gained were learning how to start a live stream on YouTube. Also the importance of setting up early and doing a test to iron out any technical issues. In this case during the test I realised I was unable to record on my mobile and tripod because YouTube said I was ineligible to mobile stream. So we had to pivot to my laptop’s webcam, which would not operate with the tripod, so the positioning of the camera was not ideal for the press conference angle and the quality of the video suffered. For future press conferences I could set up a designated channel to livestream them on (Callanan, n.d.)

2. The purpose a live press conference may serve a sports club/business from a business perspective is its a low-cost way to produce content and it is a way to reach a targeted audience and provide authentic content that audience will appreciate. If a press release is done prior to the press conference using SEO keyword optimisation, this increases regular media communication. Finally, it’s difficult to measure the success of a press conference quantitatively, however if it strengthens your image and builds trust then it has served its purpose (B2Press, 2022).

3. Sport fans love to watch live content, and as they move away from traditional broadcasting companies to hand held devices to consume content where ever they are, the ability to bring the fan experience to them, keeping  “fans engaged and capture their attention with compelling, authentic experiences” (Deutsch,  Deweese, Teller, & Harwood, 2019) is a market that doing live press conferences meets with almost no cost outlay. But fans are discerning; they still expect a quality broadcast and streaming experience (Deutsch,  Deweese, Teller, & Harwood, 2019).
