mole rat wonder meat
|
Mole rat wonder meat ( Fallout 3 ) Mole rat wonder meat is a craftable food item in " Fallout 3 " which can be made with two simple ingredients and access to the Wonder meat maker , located within the Jury Street tunnels . Background . The wonder meat can be made very simply by taking a piece of Mole rat meat and a tube of wonderglue to Ryan ' s wonder meat maker and activating it , combining the two to create one piece of the wonder meat . They are not hard to find as these items are strewn all over the laboratory . Characteristics . The wonder meat itself is 4 times more effective at HP regeneration than normal mole rat meat , bringing it up to 20 , while not altering the rad value whatsoever . In combination with the food sanitizer , this boosts the healing factor to 24 , on par with mirelurk meat , but without incurring the usual danger , difficulty , and general rarity of finding and killing the creatures . While the sanitizer is active , wonder meat is nearly on par with human flesh in terms of HP gain , and with far fewer rads .

cold war

Cold War ( TV story ) This episode once again implies that wars are fluxing points in the timeline ; " Victory of the Daleks " , the Doctor kept World War 2 from major change by confiscating leftover Dalek technology . In this story , the Doctor explains that history is full of times when all - out war can be triggered by a " single spark " . As something of a surprise , this episode is the first time that one of the Doctor ' s companions has actually listened to his order to remain where they are in a dangerous situation . By this point , the Doctor had come to accept no - one listens to him until right before it ' s too late ; Clara actually listening to him was a shock which immediately set her apart from other companions . Synopsis . In 1983 , the tensest point of the Cold War , a Soviet submarine discovers a strange creature frozen in the ice of the Arctic . When one of the " Firebird " s crew breaks it free , it starts attacking . As the crew strikes back , the Eleventh Doctor warns them that the attack could be considered a declaration of war on the entire Ice Warrior race . . . Plot . It is the North Pole , in the year 1983 . Aboard a Soviet submarine , a warning repeats that the " signal is genuine . " Captain Zhukov and Lieutenant Stepashin use their keys to prime an ICBM launch . They prepare to fire , but are interrupted by the entrance of Professor Grisenko , singing Ultravox ' s " Vienna " . The Captain reports the drill has been abandoned . Stepashin says they must run it again , to which the Captain says , " Tomorrow . " The Captain then asks the Professor about the " specimen " , wondering if it ' s a mammoth . In the hold , the crewman in charge of the specimen muses that they are supposed to wait till the crew arrives back in Moscow to thaw the specimen out . However , he uses a blowtorch to thaw the block of ice , until he is grabbed by a claw that emerges from the ice . Havoc erupts on the submarine . The hull has been breached and crew members are being attacked by a green armoured figure . The TARDIS materialises in the midst of the chaos . As the Captain orders the sub to be brought to the surface , the Eleventh Doctor and Clara are thrown across the bridge . Clara concludes that they are not in Las Vegas , as they expected to be . The Captain asks who they are , while being informed by a crew member that the main turbines aren ' t responding . The Doctor tells them their only chance to survive is to use the lateral thrusters in order to land on a ridge , which will prevent them from dropping further . The captain then orders the crew to do this . Crew members search the Doctor and Clara , confiscating a number of items from his pockets , including a doll , a ball of yarn and his sonic screwdriver . Unexpectedly , the TARDIS suddenly dematerialises . Clara falls into a puddle after a jolt rocks the sub , temporarily losing consciousness . When she wakes up , the Doctor and the Captain are arguing ; the Doctor defends his and Clara ' s arrival as a coincidence . Seeing that he must calm Zhukov , the Doctor decides " okay , no psychic paper , no pretending to be an Earth ambassador " and explains the two of them are time travellers , using the fact the TARDIS appeared from nowhere as proof . They are interrupted by a raspy noise coming from behind the Doctor . He initially thinks it ' s gas , but turns around to find the green armoured figure . The professor explains it came out of block of ice he believed held a mammoth . A shocked Doctor tells him it ' s an Ice Warrior . Zhukov calls it a monster , but the Doctor tells him Ice Warriors are soldiers that demand respect . He goes on to explain the ice Warrior is lashing out in confusion after being frozen for , as the professor explains , 5 , 000 years . The Doctor asks the warrior for his name , to which is replies Grand Marshall Skaldak ; the Doctor is shocked to hear the name of this Ice Warrior . Stepashin sneaks up behind Skaldak and knocks him out with a cattle prod . The Doctor berates Stepashin , telling them Skaldak is the greatest warrior ever produced by the Ice Warriors . He warns the crew that their only option now is to " lock him up . " Now in chains , Skaldak asks Onegin if he has been asleep for 5 , 000 years . The crewman confirms that this is what the Professor said . Skaldak signals for his brothers to save him . In Zhukov ' s quarters , the Doctor explains that the Ice Warriors are native Martian reptiles that built suits to survive when Mars became too cold for them . A design flaw is that a sudden increase of heat will knock them out , hence why the cattle prod worked ; the Doctor always wondered why this has never been addressed . Skaldak was one of the Ice Warriors ' finest , being honoured so much that his enemies would carve his name into their own flesh before death . Clara is shocked to hear this . However , Stepashin is not willing to believe in " little green men " , instead stubbornly believes that the Doctor and Clara are western spies and that Skaldak is a Western weapon , a survival suit ; he believes Moscow must be told so that they can retaliate . Zhukov only finds him annoying , ordering Stepashin to resume repair work on the submarine . The Doctor tells the Captain that if they had done nothing , Skaldak would have ignored them . However , one of their men attacked him : " Harm one and you harm us all " is the Martian code ; " Skaldak will rain down Hell just for laying a glove on him . " The Doctor points to the headphones on the Professor ' s Walkman , where he can hear the sound of " Hungry Like the Wolf " being modulated by Skaldak ' s distress call . He says that he is the only one who can talk to Skaldak , but the Captain is unwilling to risk his only source of knowledge . It can ' t be the Captain , as Skaldak will be able to tell he ' s an enemy soldier . The Captain points out the Doctor seems like one as well . As it can ' t be the Captain , any of his men , or the Doctor , Clara declares that she ' s the only choice . The Doctor protests , but prepares Clara for the task . Clara approaches the restrained Skaldak , with the Doctor coaching her through an audio link . She salutes him and recites a ritual greeting , followed by more of the Doctor ' s words , before her light goes out . The Grand Marshall speaks to the Doctor directly , and tells a story of singing the songs of the Red Snow with his daughter ( who is now long dead ) . The Doctor attempts to calm Skaldak by explaining that the Ice Warriors are still alive , but " scattered all across the universe " . However , Skaldak refuses to believe him , stating that no help will come for him . Clara has been inching forward . She realises something is wrong , discovering that the armour they have chained is now empty . Skaldak has left it . Skaldak says that it is time he studied his enemies , and swears to retaliate . The Doctor tells Clara to get out of there and begins to rush to her , but the Captain pulls a handgun on him , thinking the Doctor was cooperating with Skaldak . The Doctor tells him he ' s never seen one do this before ; he then adds that he ' s never seen one out of his shell before . The Captain accepts this and lets him go . The Professor says it should be more vulnerable without armour , but the Doctor says it will be more dangerous - to an Ice Warrior , leaving its armour is one of the most dishonourable things it can do . He runs for Clara , who hears hissing and sees Skaldak rush by as she tries to open the hatch . The others reach her and the Doctor pulls her through . She asks him how she did . The Doctor says it wasn ' t a test , but she did great . Grisenko reports that the signal has stopped . The Doctor says Skaldak has given up hope of rescue and now has nothing left to lose . Due to the Ice Warriors living beyond the solar system , the signal is taking longer to reach them ; however , Skaldak does not know this , instead believing he is the last of his kind . The Captain is sceptical about what the Martian could do , until the Doctor points out that they ' re sitting on a large number of nuclear weapons . He says it couldn ' t be any worse , just before the submarine slips a little further down the incline and more water pours in . Skaldak stalks Stepashin , who is making repairs . Stepashin pulls his gun , but he is facing the wrong direction . He feels spindly , three fingered hands grab him by the shoulder and top of the head . Skaldak learns about the Cold War and the theory of mutually assured destruction from Stepashin , who wants to gain an ally to fight Western aggression . The Captain addresses the crew . The reactor is drowned , they only have battery power , and they ' re running out of air . They still have a mission , however . They need to stop the Grand Marshall before he gains control of any of the missile s . They are all that stands between him and the destruction of the world . Clara learns from the Doctor that time can be changed , and even if the world previously didn ' t end in 1983 , it can now . The Captain tells him that they have twelve men , but they can ' t find Stepashin . They decide to split up and look for him , with a team to guard the bridge ; when the Captain questions the idea , the Doctor retorts " it ' s either that , or wait here for him to kill us all . " Grisenko turns up with the sonic screwdriver and the doll and gives them back to the Doctor , who is quite happy to have them both . They begin the search . As the Doctor scans , Clara asks Grisenko why they have a cattle prod on board , and is told that it ' s for polar bear s . The Professor tells her to have courage , and says he sings a song to stay brave . He asks if she knows " Hungry Like the Wolf " . She refuses to sing , comparing it to a musical number in " Pinocchio " . There are alarms and some echoes as the Doctor tinkers . He says it ' s the pressure , and Grisenko begins to sing , trying to persuade Clara to join him . Onegin asks Belevich if he thinks it ' s truly a Martian . Onegin thinks they ' ll be heroes for discovering that there is other life out there in the universe , not just humanity . As Belevich replies , Skaldak silently grabs Onegin . Screams echo , and the Doctor , Clara , and Grisenko arrive to find the two torn apart . The Professor calls Skaldak a savage , but the Doctor explains that he is studying the humans for physical weaknesses . They continue the search , but Clara is slow to follow . Scanning for Skaldak ' s location , the Doctor gets a fix and tells Clara to stay with the professor . Clara agrees to do so . The Doctor is momentarily confused by her willingness to follow his instruction ( unlike most of his companions ) , then continues onward . Clara confesses to Grisenko that she was bothered by the bodies . The Captain realises that Skaldak is in the walls , thus avoiding attention . The Doctor finds Stepashin ' s body , feeling sorrow for him when he notices a photo of a woman in Stepashin ' s wallet . He then spots Skaldak moving above him . He follows . The Professor tries to distract Clara from worrying about the noises she is hearing . He keeps questioning her , but she continues staring around , barely answering . He very seriously demands to know about the future — specifically , if Ultravox will split up . She breaks out into laughter , then gasps as Skaldak grabs her head . Grisenko produces a gun and shoots several times . Skaldak lets her go and grabs him . Clara pleads with Skaldak to let Grisenko go as the Doctor runs up . The Grand Marshall declares that they attacked him . By Martian law , this means that the people of this world are forfeit ; he now has the information he requires to begin the destruction . He only needs one missile to trigger the exchange . With his people dead and dust , there is nothing left for him but revenge . Skaldak signals his armour , and the helmet flips up . The Doctor tells him that there is one thing left : mercy . The Captain enters with a crewman , threatening violence in defence of the Earth . The Doctor says they ' re negotiating , not fighting . The Captain replies that they will negotiate from a position of strength , and aims his rifle . Skaldak comments , " Excellent tactical thinking , " but goes on to explain his position isn ' t as strong as he thinks . The armour has been summoned by Martian sonic technology . He releases the Professor and enters his armour . They open fire , but the Doctor stops them . Skaldak vows to create a new red planet from the blood of humanity . The Doctor follows him . Skaldak extrudes probes from the gloves of his armour into the targeting computers . Text flows , lights change and locks shift . The missile tubes open . The others arrive and the Captain says that the warheads are being armed . The Doctor asks him to wait , asking where the honour is in killing billions of innocent people . He continues to appeal to Skaldak ' s better nature , but seemingly to no effect . As Skaldak reaches for the button , he declares himself as a Time Lord , with his own sonic technology . If he needs to , he will blow up the sub and everyone on it to avoid starting the nuclear exchange . The Martian mutters , " mutually assured destruction , " and turns back to the button , as the Doctor lifts the sonic screwdriver . The Doctor taunts him to look into his eyes , and Skaldak removes his helmet , asking which of them will blink first . Clara asks Skaldak why he showed compassion earlier , further asking about his daughter and when they had sung the songs of the Red Snow . The submarine suddenly begins to vibrate . Skaldak declares that his people live and have come for him . The Captain says that they are rising . A spaceship raises the submarine to the surface in a beam of cloudy white light . The Doctor pleads with Skaldak to just go in peace . Another beam hits Skaldak and he disappears . Clara says they did it , but the Doctor checks the console , which is still armed . One pulse from the Martian ship could launch the missiles . He holds up the sonic screwdriver , wincing and repeating that he ' ll destroy them if he must . Frightened , Clara begins to quietly sing " Hungry Like the Wolf " . The missiles disarm . Clara hugs the Doctor , before straightening herself . " Saved the world , then , " she says . " That ' s what we do . . . " The Doctor , the Captain , the Professor , and Clara go up top and get a look at the Martian ship . Clara asks the Doctor what happened to the TARDIS . The Doctor sheepishly confesses that , while tinkering , he reset the HADS , which he hasn ' t used in a very long time . He says it ' s bound to turn up , as the sonic starts buzzing . The TARDIS has gone to the pole . . . the South Pole . Embarrassed , he asks the Captain for a lift , and they all laugh . The Doctor salutes the Ice Warrior ship with an arm across his chest as it zooms off . Story notes . Ratings . " Cold War " was first broadcast in the United Kingdom on BBC One on 13 April 2013 .

Turbolift Turbolifts , also called elevators or simply lifts , were machines used for conveying people and objects to different levels in a building , starship , space station , or even tiered city . Said machine traveled in a shaft that extended vertically , allowing them to move up and down . In the case of a building , a turbolift could be either internal or external to the structure . Toward the end of the Clone Wars , the elevators installed in the Separatist dreadnoughts were cable - borne and equipped with braking mechanisms . On the planet Coruscant , turbolifts could be used to travel between the many levels of the ecumenopolis . A Human girl named Anandra Milon and her younger brother Santigo Milon once used a turbolift to travel from Level 1997 to Level 1996 , as did a stormtrooper who pursued them .

bartz

Bartz Klauser Bartz Klauser ( known as Butz Klauser in the RPGe fan translation of the Super Famicom version and the Japanese version of " Dissidia Final Fantasy " , and Batz in " " ) is the main protagonist of " Final Fantasy V " . His mother died when he was young , and his father died three years ago , but on advice from his father , Bartz decided to explore the world . Before the player names him , Bartz is known as ? , or ? ? ? in the " Advance " version . Profile . Appearance . Bartz has a slim muscular build . He has white hair in Yoshitaka Amano ' s artworks , with a tight - fitting shirt and trousers with various beads and sashes . His sprite art depicts him with brown hair , wearing a blue tunic , white shirt and trousers , and sometimes a red cape . Bartz ' s eyes are gray or brown depending on the source . In sprite form , his eyes are blue . Officially , he is the tallest of the playable party . Personality . Bartz is described as " a simple wanderer . " He starts his adventure with no further ambitions than exploration as that is what his father wanted , and so he initially rejects Lenna ' s invitation to join her . His conscience ( along with Boko ' s intervention ) makes him change his mind , and shortly thereafter he is chosen to be a Light Warrior by the Crystals . This forces Bartz to mature and form a greater sense of responsibility to the world , much like his father had . Despite the gravity of the situation , Bartz retains his easygoing and friendly nature , and remains levelheaded to the point of being facetious , remarking the others are always " going overboard . " Bartz cares for his friends and is still affected by his parents ' deaths , even though he struggles verbalizing his feelings . Bartz has a fear of heights dating back to a childhood incident of playing hide - and - go - seek and almost falling from a roof of a two - story house . Story . Bartz was born in the village of Lix where he lived with his mother Stella and his father Dorgann . Bartz ' s mother died while he was still young , and his father fell ill and died when Bartz was seventeen . Following his dying wish , Bartz traveled the world and found a chocobo separated from his flock whom he named Boko who became Bartz ' s steadfast companion and steed . Three years after Dorgann ' s death , Bartz is in the Tycoon area when a meteorite falls from the sky . On the impact site he finds a young woman , Lenna , being attacked by goblins . He helps her out , and they find an amnesiac old man named Galuf in the meteorite ' s wreckage . Lenna explains she must go to the Wind Shrine and Galuf joins her when he realizes he is going there too . Bartz chooses to continue his wanderings , but Boko convinces him to help Galuf and Lenna . After an earthquake Bartz again rescues the pair from goblins and joins them on their journey to the Wind Shrine , deciding his father would have wanted him to find out what was happening to the Crystals , though Galuf teases he ' s only doing it because of the beautiful Lenna . The party finds a cave opened by the earthquake and as they venture through they spot a ship sailing without the wind . They reach a pirate hideout where Bartz tries to commandeer the pirate ship owned by the pirate captain Faris . The group is caught and during their captivity Bartz and Galuf discover Lenna ' s true identity as a princess of Tycoon . Faris lets them take the ship to the Wind Crystal and while they stop at Tule the pirates book an inn and Bartz and Galuf are confused by Faris ' s beauty while asleep . At the Wind Shrine before the Crystal shatters they meet the King Tycoon who entrusts the four with a quest to save the Crystals from an unknown evil , naming Bartz , Lenna , Galuf , and Faris the Warriors of Light . They meet Zok , Lenna ' s old friend , and ask for the key to the Torna Canal , but Zok claims to have lost it . That night , Bartz awakens wondering if his father would have wanted him to be on such a quest . Zok speaks with him and entrusts him the key , believing Lenna would be safe with him . If the party visits the pirate hideout they will find chocobo tracks . Bartz discovers Boko tried to follow them and became injured , finding his way into the care of the pirates ' doctor . Bartz is anxious over him even though the doctor assures Boko will be fine . In the Torna Canal the pirate ship is attacked by Karlabos and Syldra ( Faris ' s sea dragon " pet " that can move the ship even when there is no wind ) is sucked into a whirlpool . Bartz and Galuf must hold Faris back from trying to follow . The ship drifts to the Ship Graveyard where Bartz and Galuf discover Faris is a woman in disguise , but Bartz shrugs at the discovery and doesn ' t think of her any differently . When they reach the coastline Siren hypnotizes Bartz with a figure of his mother , but Galuf saves them because he cannot remember the girl the Siren used to try and ensnare him . They reach the North Mountain and save Hiryu , Lenna ' s wind drake . Bartz is afraid of heights but Galuf forces him onto the dragon anyway . When Bartz and the party arrive in Castle Walse , they warn the King of the Crystal ' s impending destruction , but the King refuses their counsel . Another meteorite falls nearby and a soldier warns the King that the monster Garula has gone insane . The party leaves for the Walse Tower and defeats Garula , but the Water Crystal shatters and the tower sinks into the sea . Bartz , Lenna , Galuf and Faris are rescued by Syldra , but the sea dragon is spent and drifts away on the current . The party returns to Walse Meteorite where Bartz discovers a warp point to another continent . They arrive in Karnak only to be imprisoned by the town guard . In prison Bartz and company meet Cid Previa when he accidentally " escapes " into their cell . He introduces himself as the inventor of the Crystal amplification machines , locked up by Queen Karnak when he realized the machine is damaging the Crystal and tried to stop its use . The chancellor releases the party so they can save the Queen who is trapped on the Fire - Powered Ship that holds the Fire Crystal . The party saves the Queen , but the Crystal is destroyed by a possessed soldier and they narrowly escape the ensuing explosion . Cid is frustrated by his mistakes and unable to help Bartz and his friends , so they look for Mid Previa , Cid ' s grandson , who resides in the Library of the Ancients . They explain everything to him and Mid departs to talk to his grandfather . With Mid and Cid working together they rebuild the Fire - Powered Ship and Bartz ' s party leaves to search for the last Crystal . Galuf , having regained some of his memory after seeing Cid and Mid ' s relationship , knows the reason the Crystals are being destroyed : Exdeath , a 1 , 000 - year - old warlock from another world who was sealed by the Warriors of Dawn and the Crystals ' power , is possessing various people around the world to destroy the Crystals to break free . With the wind drake , Bartz returns to his hometown of Lix where the townspeople are happy to see him , and the bard who has taken up residence in his old house tells him to look around . The old music box reminds Bartz of his mother ' s death and that night he visits her grave . He explains to Faris that his father Dorgann would have been buried alongside his wife and carves his name on the stone . After the party searches for the Earth Crystal on Crescent , the Fire - Powered Ship sinks . When the party explores the nearby woods Bartz and Faris find a black chocobo and return to the Library of the Ancients to explore the Ronka Ruins where they encounter a possessed King Tycoon . They reach Catapult , a hidden facility , and find an airship under Crescent Island when the Ronka Ruins turn into a floating battle station . The party flies there with the newly - restored airship and unwittingly destroys the Crystal ' s guardian . King Tycoon prepares to destroy the Crystal and while Bartz and Galuf ready themselves to fight him , Lenna and Faris stand between them . Galuf ' s granddaughter Krile has arrived on another meteorite , and hits the King with a spell to break Exdeath ' s hold on him . The ensuing reunion is cut short when Exdeath arrives , forcing the King to sacrifice his life to save them . Exdeath departs to the other world , and as the King dies he asks that Bartz protect his daughters , Lenna and Faris . Galuf , his memory fully restored , leaves for his world with Krile on her meteorite and forbids the others to follow . Bartz , Lenna , and Faris soon decide they ' re not going to leave their friend to fight on his own even if it means never returning to their homeworld . They collect adamantite at Cid and Mid ' s suggestion from the four meteorites to use their remaining power to teleport to Galuf ' s World . Bartz , Lenna , and Faris arrive on a deserted island and during the night are attacked by Abductor s sent by Exdeath . The three are taken to Castle Exdeath and held hostage and when Bartz tries to confront Exdeath , is knocked back with a powerful spell . Galuf has his army fall back , saves the heroes from the castle , and the four battle Exdeath ' s lackey Gilgamesh . After the battle on the Big Bridge , the castle ' s force field throws the party to the continent of Gloceana . Bartz apologizes for failing to help , but Galuf brushes it off . Spending the night in Regole , Galuf reassures him that their actions saved his army from the barrier ( albeit accidentally ) and asks why they followed him , but Bartz is unable to articulate his reasons . They reach Moogle Village and are picked up by Krile and her wind drake who take them to the Castle of Bal where Bartz is shocked to discover Galuf is a king . Krile ' s wind drake is dying after the battle and its long flight , and the only place dragon grass grows in is Drakenvale , a place where none are said to have survived . Although the others are disheartened , Bartz proclaims they ' ll be the first . While searching for dragon grass the party crosses the town of Quelb and meets Kelger Vlondett who questions their loyalties and challenges Bartz to a fight . Bartz repels Kelger ' s Lupine Attack and explains his father , Dorgann , trained him . Galuf and Kelger are shocked and reveal that Dorgann , along with themselves and King Xezat , were the Warriors of Dawn who sealed Exdeath and that Dorgann had refused to return after forcing such an evil onto another world . Although Dorgann and Stella never told Bartz so as not to burden him , Bartz wound up following in his footsteps anyway . The party is summoned by the sage Ghido and try to visit him , but Exdeath sinks Ghido ' s island . The party is picked up by Xezat ' s fleet and join him in destroying the Barrier Tower . Xezat becomes trapped in the lowest level and tells the party to escape without him as the tower falls , and Bartz is forced to knock Galuf unconscious to get him out . With the submarine used to infiltrate the tower , they find Ghido ' s lair in a now - underwater cavern . Finding a turtle inside , Bartz pokes it until it speaks up , revealing itself to be the sage . Bartz apologizes but Ghido keeps mocking him . He tells the warriors to head for the Great Forest of Moore that Exdeath seems to be interested in . As they enter the Guardian Tree , Exdeath forces the Crystal seals to attack the party so that they will destroy them for him . The Crystals released , Exdeath attacks the party with their power . Krile arrives and tries to stop him , but she falls to his magic . Galuf fights Exdeath with the last of his strength , forcing the warlock to retreat . Although the party tries to heal him , Galuf dies and passes on his status as a Light Warrior and the skills he ' d acquired from the Crystals to his granddaughter . The new party rushes to Castle Exdeath , but Exdeath taunts them for fighting without even knowing what his plans are . Although they seem to defeat him , Exdeath shatters the Crystals . The party blacks out and mysteriously finds themselves back at Castle Tycoon . Faris is welcomed back as the long - lost Princess Sarisa and a grand ball is held to celebrate her and Lenna ' s return . During the festivities Krile ducks out and Bartz follows to check on her . When she tells him that Galuf ' s spirit is telling her to hurry , Bartz decides to investigate . They leave the princesses behind and Bartz seeks out Boko and finds him not just healed , but married to a chocobo named Koko with eggs on the way . Bartz gives Boko his hearty congratulations and the three of them continue , but fall into a pit created by an Antlion and are rescued by Faris after promising they ' ll never leave her behind again . They find Ghido upended in his cave who explains the two worlds have merged to one . The worlds were split to seal the Void , a destructive power of unknown origin , a thousand years ago , and that is what Exdeath seeks . Exdeath appears before them and although Bartz and Faris try to fight him , only Ghido can match him , but it ' s not enough to stop Exdeath from using the power of the Void . He consumes Tycoon Castle with Lenna still inside . On their way to seek the first tablet to unlock the the legendary Sealed Weapons to gain the strength to face Exdeath , the party passes the Guardian Tree and pauses to mourn the people they ' ve lost . They resolve to defeat Exdeath and not allow any more sacrifices to be made . After retrieving the tablet from the Pyramid of Moore they find Lenna being possessed by Melusine , a demon of the rift that forces her to attack them . Turns out Lenna was saved from the Void by her wind drake , and after Hiryu frees her from possession Bartz , Faris , and Krile destroy the demon and Lenna joins them . As soon as they board their airship Exdeath attacks with the Void worldwide and consumes Lix and several other places . At the sight of his hometown being sucked into a black hole Bartz flies into a rage and pushes the airship to its limits and nearly destroys it until the others calm him down . After collecting the twelve Sealed Weapons Bartz , Lenna , Faris and Krile enter the Interdimensional Rift where they fight Exdeath , aided by the spirits of King Tycoon and the Dawn Warriors . Though the Void transforms him into Neo Exdeath , the Light Warriors prevail . The Crystals reform and the places taken by the Void are restored . Bartz resumes his wandering lifestyle and a year later , he reunites with the others at the Guardian Tree where they resolve to continue protecting the Crystals as Light Warriors . Gameplay . Bartz will be the most available playable character , so the player may make him the primary damage dealer with physical jobs , such as Knight , Monk , or Gladiator .

Bartz has made appearances in the following games in the " Final Fantasy " series : Non - " Final Fantasy " guest appearances . Bartz has made key guest appearances in the following non - " Final Fantasy " games : Etymology . Bartz is the pet name for Bartolomäus , the German form of Bartholomew . Though originally envisioned to be romanized as " Butz , " Bartz ' s name has never been romanized as such in an official localization of " Final Fantasy V " , and in the past , it was only romanized for the 1992 official strategy guide in Japan . English localizations have changed the romanization to " Bartz , " likely because Butz is a homophone of " butts . " In the English version of " Final Fantasy : Legend of the Crystals " he is referred to as " Batz , " another transliteration of his Japanese name . Butz is an existing German surname that emerged in medieval times as one of the notable families in Austria .

changing history
|
Alternate timeline ( Father ' s Day ) In an alternate timeline , Peter Tyler never died in a car crash . Instead , his daughter , Rose Tyler , used the Ninth Doctor ' s TARDIS to go back in time and save his life . ( TV : " Father ' s Day " ) History . Witnessing the event . Initially , Rose asked the Doctor to take her back to the day that Pete died , 7 November 1987 , so she could be there with him , given no one was until the ambulance arrived , by which time he had already died . The Ninth Doctor agreed . The pair witnessed as Pete exited his car and was run over by a young driver , who quickly sped away in panic . However , Rose was distraught at witnessing the event , running away , unable to will herself to be with him . She confessed her regret to the Doctor , desiring to try again . ( TV : " Father ' s Day " ) Interfering . Reluctantly , the Doctor took Rose back to when her father died one more time . They waited out of sight from their past selves , who were still witnessing the event . The Doctor informed Rose they could not risk another return and must wait for their past selves to run off before Rose could intervene . However , Rose impulsively ran out , in front of her past self and saved her father ' s life , pushing him out of the way . The effect of such a change caused the Doctor and Rose ' s past selves to disappear . Rose and the Doctor then accompanied Pete into his house . Once alone , the Doctor chided Rose for her actions , remarking that her change to time would lead to catastrophic results . He eventually left , claiming he was leaving her there . Angered , Rose dismissed his threat and spent the day with her father , getting ready for the wedding he was meant to go to had he not died . They arrived at the wedding , where the guests present revealed they had lost contact with others meant to come . People around the world began to mysteriously vanish . In a park , a young Mickey Smith fled after the other children also disappeared . Rose and others found their phones would only repeat the same message over and over when they tried to ring people : " Watson , come here , I need you , " the very first thing said over a telephone by Alexander Graham Bell . The Doctor , upon returning to his TARDIS , found the interior had been taken out of time . Realising what was occurring , he raced to the church . Rose also met her mother , Jackie Tyler , and her younger self , discovering her parents ' marriage was not as idyllic as her mother made her to believe . The Doctor arrived shortly after , saving Rose from a Reaper . The guests fled into the church , as its age acted as a shield against the reapers . However , it wouldn ' t last as the Reapers gained more power as they consumed more people . The Doctor guessed the only survivors on Earth were people like them in similar old buildings . Over time , the Doctor revealed to Rose that saving her father had enabled the Reapers to infest reality , where they would cleanse it of everything to fill in the void made by her saving Pete . However , he refused to let Pete die again , attempting to save everyone by using his TARDIS key to pull the TARDIS back into their timeline . However Rose accidentally touched her younger self , enabling a Reaper to enter the church . The Doctor then sacrificed himself and his TARDIS to destroy the Reaper , their last hope lost . The Reapers eventually consumed the whole world . ( TV : " Father ' s Day " ) Negation . Later , Pete noticed the car from earlier that day was stuck in a time loop , driving round the church only to vanish . He figured out that the only way to restore the timeline was to allow the car to run him over . He told Rose , having understood the Doctor had figured it out also , but tried to find another solution to spare Rose losing her father again . After saying goodbye to Rose and Jackie , Pete ran out into the road , avoiding the Reapers and allowed the car to kill him . As such , a new timeline was created . This time , Rose was by her father as he died , outside the church rather than his house . The driver stayed in the new timeline , allowing everyone to know who he was . ( TV : " Father ' s Day " ) Rose later told Jackie she changed history so she was at her father ' s side as he died , rather than not so as originally occurred , in an effort to prove to her mother how wonderful the Doctor was .

Australian contribution to the 1991 Gulf War Australia was a member of the international coalition which contributed military forces to the 1991 Gulf War , also known as Operation Desert Storm . While the Australian forces did not see combat , they did play a significant role in enforcing the sanctions put in place against Iraq following the invasion of Kuwait , as well as other small support contributions to Operation Desert Storm .

Following the end of the war Australia deployed a medical unit on Operation Habitat to northern Iraq as part of Operation Provide Comfort . Royal Australian Navy warships were periodically deployed to the Persian Gulf to enforce sanctions against Iraq until the 2003 Invasion of Iraq . While there were proposals to deploy other units ( including an apparent US request for RF - 111 reconnaissance aircraft ) these proposals came to nothing and no Australian Army or Royal Australian Air Force combat units were deployed . While some publications suggest that the Australian Special Air Service Regiment ( SASR ) took part in the war , this is not correct ( though the SASR was brought to a higher state of readiness and a very small number of personnel on exchange to the British SAS saw action ) .

Company A , Arizona Rangers Company A , Arizona Rangers was one of the Confederate military units raised in the Confederate Arizona Territory . Origin of the Arizona Rangers . After the establishment of the Confederate Arizona Territory , Governor John Robert Baylor decided he needed to supplement existing militia companies with a regiment of Rangers like the Texas Rangers . He intended this regiment would consist of several companies of cavalry . On January 25 , 1862 , its first company , Company A , Baylor ' s Regiment of Arizona Rangers commanded by Captain Sherod Hunter , was mustered into the Confederate service at the town of Dona Ana located just north of modern Las Cruces , New Mexico . Hunter ' s Company consisted of about 75 men for the most part residents of the Confederate Territory of Arizona . They were armed with revolvers and Model 1847 smoothbore musketoon s , probably taken from Fort Fillmore after it surrendered in August 1861 . The company was enlisted for three years , or the duration of the war . They were picked for their skills and experience with the hardships of frontier life . Arizona Campaign against the California Column . On February 10 , 1862 Company A was ordered to occupy Tucson , the largest town in the western Confederate Territory of Arizona . Tucson was located on the Butterfield Overland Mail road , the only one between California and the Rio Grande and Mesilla valleys , and an ideal location for an advanced post to observe and delay the advance of Union forces gathering under Col . James Henry Carleton at Fort Yuma . By taking possession of Tucson , Baylor would also protect the citizens and secure the Confederate claim to possession of western Arizona , which had been abandoned by Union troops in 1861 . Company A arrived in Tucson on February 27 . The invasion of Arizona by the California Column would have come much sooner but for the tactics of Captain Hunter and Company A . At White ' s Mills , near the Pima Villages , about twenty miles south of present Phoenix , Captain Hunter captured without firing a shot , a scouting party of nine men of Company A , 1st Regiment California Volunteer Cavalry under Captain William McCleave . Following their surprise of McCleave they destroyed caches of hay stored at the Butterfield stage stations along the barren route from Fort Yuma to the Gila River . At the villages of the Pima Indians on the Gila River , ( about 30 miles south of present - day Phoenix , Arizona ) , Hunter also discovered 1 , 500 sacks of flour from wheat purchased from the Pima by federal purchase agent Ammi M . White . It had been ground into flour and stored in his mill in anticipation of the advance of the Union forces . Hunter ' s men arrested White , disabled the mill and confiscated the flour . However , because of insufficient transport Hunter could not remove the flour , so Sherod gave it back to the Pima for them to use . When news of the capture of McCleave got back to Fort Yuma , a larger force under Captain William Calloway was sent along the same route with orders to find and free Captain McCleave and his men . Calloway ' s force clashed with Elements of Company A burning hay at Stanwix Station and after a brief skirmish , the Arizona Rangers retreated to Tucson . Afterward Calloway reached the Pima Villages , the main supply point between Fort Yuma and Tucson and after a short rest , set out toward Tucson . As they approached Picacho Pass , Indian scouts brought in information that Confederate pickets were just ahead . Lieutenant James Barrett and a small group of his Company A , First Cavalry were ordered to make a wide detour to strike them on the flank , while Calloway would make a frontal attack with the main party . In the following Battle of Picacho Pass the Barret ' s California cavalry engaged alone and suffered defeat in a brisk engagement . The Confederates watched the California cavalry retreat , then they fell back to Tucson , to warn Tucson ' s garrison of the approaching Union army . Captain Calloway returned to the Pima Villages and started work on a permanent camp , throwing up earth works around the flour mill of Ammi White , who had been taken away with McCleve to Mesilla by the rebels a few weeks before . This earth work was named " Fort Barrett " in honor of their comrade . Confiscation of the wheat and burning of hay now forced a halt at the villages while new supplies were gathered . It required several weeks for the main elements of the " Column " to get to Pima Villages , due to the time needed to gather more hay along the route . Further delay occurred because only detachments of less than four companies could move over the desert routes within twenty - four hours of each other , due to the scarcity of water . The net effect of the Arizona Rangers ' actions was to delay the advance of the California Column for over a month , which probably saved the Confederate Army of New Mexico , now retreating back to Mesilla from its defeat at the Battle of Glorietta Pass from being intercepted and destroyed by the California Column during April 1862 . After the battle at Picacho Pass , Captain Hunter wrote to Governor Baylor , requesting a reinforcement of at least 250 men , with which he felt he could hold Tucson . When no reinforcements were forthcoming , Hunter decided to evacuate Tucson . Company A left Tucson on May 14 , leaving behind a small detachment under the command of Lieutenant Tevis to watch for the approach of Union forces . Unknown to the Confederates , on that same day , the Union California Column finally left its bivouac at the Pima Villages for its final advance on Tucson . On May 15 , Colonel West and his advance California detachment moved out of the Pima Villages for Tucson , going through Rattlesnake Springs to old Fort Breckenridge , and camped that night in the " Canyon de Oro " . The next day , May 19 , a short march of fifteen miles was made , and the party camped within ten miles of Tucson . Early on the morning of the 20th , the command moved forward until it arrived within two miles of the town . Captain Emil Fritz , Company B , 1st Cavalry , was ordered take his first platoon to make a detour and come in on the east side of the town ; the second platoon , under Juan Francisco Guirado , was to charge in on the north side , while the four companies of infantry were to come in on the road from the west . Lieutenant Tevis and his detachment were surprised and almost captured when the Yankee cavalry charged into town on May 20 . The three California columns arrived at the plaza at the same moment , the cavalry at the charge and the infantry at the double quick , but found no enemy . Tevis and his men had managed to escape , and rejoined the main body of Company A a few days later . During the retreat to Messilla , Company A clashed twice with the Apache . First , in the Battle of Dragoon Springs , where four of its soldiers were killed and some of its stock were lost . In the Second Battle of Dragoon Springs they had the best of the encounter . With the Army of New Mexico and the Sibley Brigade . After Hunter ' s Company A retreated from Tucson and arrived in Mesilla on May 27 , 1862 , it was organized with two Arizona militia companies , the Arizona Guards of Pinos Altos and the Arizona Rangers of Mesilla , under Herbert ' s Battalion of Arizona Cavalry under the command of Lt . Colonel Philemon T . Herbert . It served as rearguard to the remnants of the Army of New Mexico as it withdrew from El Paso to San Antonio , in July 1862 . After their arrival in San Antonio , Herbert ’ s Battalion was formally assigned to the " Sibley Brigade " , the name given the former Army of New Mexico . Colonel Thomas Green was in command in place of Brigadier General Henry Hopkins Sibley , who was away in Richmond until December , 1862 . On October 2 , 1862 , Sherod Hunter was promoted Major and joined Second Cavalry Regiment , Arizona Brigade under Colonel George Wythe Baylor . First Lieutenant Robert L . Swope , was promoted to Captain and assumed command of the Company A . On December 2 , 1862 , General Sibley was ordered to New Iberia , Louisiana , to take over command of his Brigade . On December 25 he found that most of the Brigade had been ordered to Galveston but Herbert ’ s Battalion was there in Louisiana actively scouting in the vicinity of Plaquemine and the Mississippi River . In February 1863 , shortly after the arrival of the Sibley Brigade in Louisiana , Captain Robert L . Swope resigned as commander of Company A . First Lieutenant James Henry Tevis took command , but was not promoted to the rank of Captain at the time . In April 1863 , the Sibley Brigade including Herbert ’ s Arizona Battalion was among the men with which General Taylor confronted the Yankee army under General Nathaniel Banks at Fort Bisland , on the Bayou Teche . The Battle of Fort Bisland was a defeat for the Confederates , and General Taylor ordered a retreat . General Sibley , in command of the rear guard , nearly lost his command at Franklin , Louisiana , when he ordered the last bridge across the Bayou burned before his men had made their escape . Fortunately they saw the flames behind them and quickly disengaged and fled across the bridge before it was fully engulfed in flames . Sibley was court - martialed for this and removed from command of the Brigade . Colonel Thomas Green , who had led the brigade previously , was promoted to Brigadier General and placed in command of the Brigade . Arizona Scout Company in Arkansas , Louisiana , Texas . By the end of May 1863 the Arizona Battalion had been reduced by losses and it was broken up . Company A still had enough men to continue as a viable company , and was kept in being but renamed as the independent Arizona Scout Company , attached to Green ' s Brigade . The other two companies of the Battalion were disbanded and the men consolidated with those of Company A to form the Arizona Scout Company . In June 1863 the Scouts participated in the Bayou Teche Campaign . The surrender of the Confederate bastion at Port Hudson , Louisiana in July 1863 led to the retreat of Green ' s Brigade to the region of Shreveport , Louisiana . In November 1863 , the Arizona Scouts fought with Green ' s Brigade against a Union invasion up the Bayou Teche . In early December 1863 the brigade was recalled to Texas , in response to a threatened assault on Galveston which never materialized . In late December 1863 , while near Galveston , the Second and Third Texas - Arizona Cavalry Regiments were re - assigned to the Texas Cavalry Brigade commanded by Brigadier General James Patrick Major and the Scouts were assigned to that brigade also , However in February 1864 , the Arizona Scouts were among the companies detached from Texas Cavalry Brigade to form a Scouting Battalion under the command of Major William Saufley . Captain Tevis ’ s Arizona Scout Company became Company E of the Battalion .

Bangladesh Armed Forces The Bangladesh Armed Forces ( ) consists of the three uniformed military services of Bangladesh : the Bangladesh Army , the Bangladesh Navy and the Bangladesh Air Force . The para - military Border Guard Bangladesh and Bangladesh Coast Guard are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Home Affairs during peacetime , but during wartime they fall under the command of Bangladesh Army and Bangladesh Navy respectively . The President of Bangladesh is the Commander - in - chief of the military , the Ministry of Defence ( MoD ) is the principal administrative organization by which military policy is formulated and executed . The MoD is headed by the Minister of Defence , a civilian and member of cabinet ; the post is usually held by the Prime Minister of Bangladesh , who also serves as the President ' s second - in - command of the military . To coordinate military policy with diplomacy both the President and the Prime Minister are advised by a six - member advisory board , three Chiefs of Staff , which includes the head of each of the regular services , Principal Staff Officer of the Armed Forces Division , and Military Secretaries to the President and the Prime Minister . The Director Generals of the NSI , the DGFI and the BGB also serve in an advisory capacity . The " Armed Forces Day " is observed on 21 November . Official functions are held at " Bangabhaban " , Dhaka , " Armed Forces Division Head Quarter " , Dhaka Cantonment , and at every military installation throughout the country . History of Bangladesh Armed Forces . Bangladesh Liberation War . The modern history of the Bangladesh military began its inception on the night of 25 March 1971 and in its twilight hours when Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was arrested and flown to West Pakistan . On 26 March 1971 evening Major Ziaur Rahman broadcast the official declaration of Independence of Bangladesh on behalf of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman from the captured Kalurghat radio station in Chittagong . Hence the Independence day of Bangladesh is 26 March . On 4 April 1971 under the command and leadership of the C - in - C Colonel M . A . G . Osmani ( retd ) , it began organization and creation with the title of Bangladesh Forces . During the first Bangladesh Sector Commanders Conference ( held during 11 – 17 July 1971 ) Bangladesh Forces were organized and formed for the ongoing Bangladesh War of Independence from Pakistan . It was significant in the sense that during this historic conference the Bangladesh Forces field command structure , sector reorganization , reinforcement , appointment of field commanders and tactics of warfare were decided upon and carried out . This conference was presided over jointly by the then Prime Minister of Bangladesh Mr . Tajuddin Ahmed and Banga Bir Colonel M . A . G . Osmani Commander in Chief of all Bangladesh Forces . During this conference Muhammad Ataul Gani Osmani was reinstated from retirement to active duty into the Armed Forces of Bangladesh as its senior most official , with the rank of Colonel reactivated . Principal participants of this conference were Principal Military Representative of Bangladesh Government - in - Exile at Chakulia Guerilla Training Camp ( Bihar ) Squadron Leader M . Hamidullah Khan , BDF Commander Sector 1 Major Ziaur Rahman , BDF Commander Sector 2 Major Khaled Mosharraf , BDF Commander Sector 3 Major K M Shafiullah , BDF Commander Sector 4 Major C R Datta , Major M . A . Jalil , Captain Rafiqul Islam , Lt . Col . Abdur Rab , Wing Commander Khademul Bashar , Major Najmul Haque , Major Mir Shawkat Ali . Lt . Col . Abdur Rab was appointed as Chief of Staff , Bangladesh Army . However , throughout the entire duration of the war Lt . Col . Rab remained in Tripura . During early August at the behest of the Indian authorities Colonel Osmani unwillingly appointed Group Captain A . K . Khandker as Deputy Chief of Staff ( Army – Liaison ) in place of Group Captain Muhammad Ghulam Tawab , whom Osmani wanted to appoint as his Deputy Commander - in - Chief . Bangladesh was divided into Eleven Sectors under Sector Commanders . For better management of military operations each sector was divided into a combination of sub - sectors , commanded by a Sub - Sector Commander . The 10th Sector was kept under the direct command of the Commander in Chief and included the Naval Commandos as C - in - C ’ s special operations force . These commandos were later absorbed into the Bangladesh Navy . The Bangladesh Forces received tightly measured assistance from the meager resources of the Indian authorities soon after hostilities broke out . The Soviet Union and the U . S . were also keen to play Cold War politics in the region . The U . S . policy guided by then U . S . National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger was courting Pakistan to open ties with China , hence could not support the Bangladesh struggle for independence . However , Nixon ' s policy did supply emergency relief assistance to India and huge amount of military and financial aid to Pakistan . The USSR decided to assist India , eventually supported and immensely strengthened Indian efforts against Pakistan . Bangladesh ' s independence struggle gained from this assistance after India initially decided to support the official Bangladesh government and BD Forces , but also tacitly trained and supplied pro - Indian militia ' s Mujib Bahini , Hemayet Bahini and Kaderia Bahini with planning , training and arms under the direction and guidance of RAW chief R . N . Kao and SFF Inspector General Major General Sujat Singh Uban . The support to BD Forces culminated under the security umbrella provided by the Indo - Soviet Friendship Treaty of August 1971 . On 21 November 1971 , when the natural climate was dry and more adaptable and by which time the Bangladesh Forces had severely weakened the strength of the West Pakistani Forces through its guerilla operations , under a complicated politico - military scenario , a demand of the Indian government was conceded to by the Bangladesh Government - in - exile in Calcutta , which was handing over the full command and authority of its operations to the Indian armed forces . The Pakistani force had already suffered massive casualty from constant attacks by the BD Forces and was on the verge of collapse , they readily agreed to a cease fire without resistance in about one and a half weeks , on 16 December 1971 . However , the cease fire was switched into a surrender document . The Bangladesh Forces C - in - C Colonel M . A . G . Osmani and almost every member of the Bangladesh Forces , Sector Commanders who organised and led the war including Brigade S , K , and Z Force Commanders were barred from attending . No ambassadors , or other diplomats , the press , civilian representatives were invited to attend . Group Captain A . K . Khandker , the lone BD Forces non combatant staff member , managed to tag along with the Indian entourage and witnessed the show and returned to Kalyani , Calcutta , back on the same day with them . K M Shafiullah , S Force commander , and a handful of others were also among the hundreds of local masses who surrounded the event from a distance . " No protocol was set on what they were supposed to do " . A fact Shafiullah admitted himself . " We rushed to the Race Course from the airport . I was quite near the signing table . But we were not sure what we were supposed to do . That ' s why I do not appear in any of the photographs . There was rejoicing all around by many Bangladesh citizens . Niazi was put on a jeep and sent away . Aurora and J . F . R . Jacob left the premise and immediately flew back after the signing . That night I did not come across anyone . " " - Major General Shafiullah spoke to Kaushik Sankar Das " . Victory was declared by the Indian authorities . All 93 , 000 prisoners of war and massive amount of captured war materials were taken to India . Colonel Osmani and a few sector commanders arrived in Dhaka a day later , and set up the former Pakistan Army 14 Div HQ ' s , w . e . f 17 December 1971 , as BD Forces Command Head Quarters , at Dhaka Cantonment which remained operational until 14 February 1972 . All closures and accounts were conducted from Osmani ' s C - in - C HQ at Dhaka Cantonment . Group Captain Muhammad Ghulam Tawab was appointed Osmani ' s first Deputy Commander in Chief after being able to return from Bangkok , Thailand on 17 December 1971 . General Osmani and his deputy Group Captain Muhammad Ghulam Tawab remanied in command of BD Forces until 7 April 1972 . However , due to internal politics conspired and spearheaded by Group Captain A . K . Khandker and members of the Awami League who resurfaced from Calcutta , India , almost more than a month after the war ended , managed to remove Tawab entirely from service in Bangladesh government . Bangladesh Forces were ordered on 29 January 1972 for demobilization of all sectors by end of February under the direction of the newly Indian army installed Mujib government . General M . A . G Osmani held the final Sector Commanders Conference at the old Police HQ at 27 Mintu Road , Dhaka . The famous Bangladesh Forces Command Group photograph was taken on that day . All sectors were abruptly shut down . No official accounts of war wounded , gallantry investigations , or weapons collection were done . Independent Bangladesh remained under Indian army occupation and total control for another three months after the war , with an ICS and an Indian army official in every official entity of the Bangladesh government . Quickly realising this as a critical situation , Sheikh Mujibur Rahman made a unilateral public demand to Indira Gandhi regarding the absolute , unconditional , and unequivocal withdrawal of all Indian officials and forces from Bangladesh . U . S . President Nixon also made clear to the Indians that they must leave Bangladesh . India withdrew its personnel within 2 days 17 to 19 March 1972 . The Bangladesh Forces was organized for War of Independence in 1971 under 11 ( eleven ) sectors and subsequently into three brigade size commands . < br > BDF HQQ ' s 8 Theatre Road , Calcutta , India . < br > Prime Minister : Mr .

The forces perform traditional military missions . The Bangladesh Coast Guard under the Home Ministry , plays a stronger role in the area of anti - smuggling , anti - piracy , and protection of offshore resources . Recognition of economic and fiscal constraints has led to the establishment of several paramilitary and auxiliary forces , including the 67 , 000 member Border Guard Bangladesh and the 4 , 000 member Ansars and Village Defence Parties Organization . The Border Guards Bangladesh , under the Home Ministry , are commanded by army officers who are seconded to the organization . In addition to traditional defence roles , the military has been called on to provide support to civil authorities for disaster relief and internal security . The military of Bangladesh fought tribal insurgents in Chittagong Hill Tracts since mid - 1970s .

The Bangladesh military is recognized as a disciplined and well - trained national institution that can tackle critical national phases . A 2 , 300 - member Bangladesh Army contingent served with coalition forces during the 1991 Gulf war .

Aliases of the Doctor Throughout their travels in time and space , the Doctor took on and was called by a number of different aliases , titles and names . Some were fleeting . Others , like John Smith , were used by almost all of their incarnations . The Doctor ’ s incarnations told few individuals their real name . Instead , they asked others to call them simply , the Doctor . The Doctor ' s real name . As the Time Lord ' s true name was not generally known , " the Doctor " ( or " Doctor Who " ) became an alias . It was implied that his given name was ceremoniously withdrawn and stricken by his Cousins as punishment for a disgrace he brought upon his House . ( PROSE : " Lungbarrow " ) Even when put on trial by the Time Lord s , he was only referred to as " the Doctor " , ( TV : " The War Games " ) although the Valeyard , a culmination of the Doctor ' s darker side who prosecuted the second trial , acknowledged that this was an alias . ( TV : " The Mysterious Planet " ) Even those who had known him in childhood addressed him only as " the Doctor " , such as the Master , ( TV : " Death in Heaven " ) and the Rani . ( COMIC : " Weapons of Past Destruction " ) When the Fifth Doctor was officially inducted as Lord President , he declared that it was " out of the question " for him to be introduced by his true name , stating that he would accept being introduced as ' Lord President Doctor ' ( AUDIO : " Time in Office " ) . According to one account , during their first incarnation , the Doctor adopted this name in dealing with human colonists on the planet Iwa at the same time that his granddaughter adopted the name " Susan " . ( PROSE : " Frayed " ) Another account implied that the Doctor ' s title had been chosen as a Gallifreyan custom , ( TV : " The Sound of Drums " ) and that he had been using it before he left Gallifrey . ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) The Doctor ' s real name has been said to be difficult to pronounce , for human s at least , ( AUDIO : " Slipback " ) and certainly for adults , ( TV : " Twice Upon a Time " ) possessing thirty eight syllables . ( PROSE : " Sleepy " ) The First Doctor once told an interrogator he " wouldn ' t be able to pronounce the first syllable of [ his name ] . " ( PROSE : " Salvation " ) His seventh incarnation likewise told one of his captors that he " doubt [ ed ] [ they ] ' d be able to pronounce the name [ he ] was originally given . " ( PROSE : " Illegal Alien " ) When asked about the Doctor ' s name , Peri Brown once said that the Doctor had told her she would find it unpronounceable . ( AUDIO : " Slipback " ) The Doctor kept their true name hidden despite numerous " mind - probe " attempts and the effect of a truth field . ( TV : " The Girl in the Fireplace " , " The Time of the Doctor " ) The Carrionite Lilith , unable to discover the Tenth Doctor ' s true name even with the " witchcraft " used by her kind , remarked , " There is no name , " and that the Doctor was hiding his true name in despair . ( TV : " The Shakespeare Code " ) The psychically - gifted Evelina , who attempted to foretell the Doctor ' s future , remarked that his " true name " was " hidden " from her . ( TV : " The Fires of Pompeii " ) Moments before regenerating into the Thirteenth Doctor , the Twelfth Doctor told his future self that they " mustn ' t tell anyone your name " , before noting " they wouldn ' t understand it anyway . " He acknowledged , however , that " children can hear it , sometimes . If their hearts are in the right place , and the stars are too . Children can hear your name . But nobody else , nobody else ever . " ( TV : " Twice Upon a Time " ) Significance . The Eleventh Doctor told Clara Oswald that his real name was not important , since he specifically chose the title of " Doctor " to take its place , saying it was " like a promise you make . " ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) This promise was , as recited by the Tenth and War Doctor s ; " Never cruel or cowardly . Never give up , never give in . " ( TV : " The Day of the Doctor " ) Despite their hatred of the War Doctor ' s actions , ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) both the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors admitted " [ he ] was the Doctor more than [ any of them ] . " ( TV : " The Day of the Doctor " ) When Clara was forced to take on his role for him , the Twelfth Doctor told her that " goodness has nothing to do with [ being a Doctor ] " . ( TV : " Flatline " ) The Doctor considered abandoning his name if he felt he had to do something highly immoral ( TV : " The Beast Below " , " Face the Raven " ) The Doctor went by the title of Warrior during the Time War , but proudly called himself the Doctor once he discovered the true outcome of the War . ( TV : " The Day of the Doctor " ) According to Dorium Maldovar , the Silence had a particular interest in the Doctor ' s name . He explained that if the Doctor lived long enough , " on the fields of Trenzalore , at the fall of the Eleventh , [ when ] no creature could speak falsely or fail to answer " , a question that must never be answered would be asked : " Doctor Who ? " . The Silence wanted to stop the Doctor from revealing his true name . ( TV : " The Wedding of River Song " ) The Doctor was at a later time forced to go to Trenzalore to rescue his friends from the Great Intelligence , which sought to gain access to the Doctor ' s tomb . The tomb , which was a future version of his own dying TARDIS , would open only to the Doctor ' s real name . The Intelligence threatened to kill Clara Oswald and the Paternoster Gang if he did not speak his name and open the tomb ; the situation was resolved when the data ghost of River Song was able to silently transmit his name to the TARDIS , thus opening the door for the Great Intelligence . ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) The Doctor ' s real name became important during the Siege of Trenzalore , as it was the signal chosen by the Time Lords to come back to the universe , broadcasting the question ' Doctor Who ? ' through a crack in reality , simultaneously broadcasting a Truth Field so that they could be sure that it was truly the Doctor responding to them . Despite this , when the Doctor was facing death , Clara told the Time Lords through the Crack that the only name of his that mattered was " the Doctor " and everything he stood for under that name , prompting them to give the Doctor a new regeneration cycle at the cost of closing the crack . ( TV : " The Time of the Doctor " ) After meeting his twelfth incarnation , the First Doctor was confronted by the mysterious Testimony Foundation , who claimed that the Doctor was the " Doctor of War " . Although the First Doctor initially feared this interpretation of his future , after witnessing his future self ' s efforts to save Captain Archibald Hamish Lethbridge - Stewart , he came to conclude that the " Doctor of War " was not a man who reveled in war , but a man who sought the moments of peace that existed amid open warfare , and who would always try to find another way to end war , and to find resolution , rather than resorting to bloodshed . ( TV : " Twice Upon a Time " ) Ubiquity of the title . The Doctor did possess at least one doctorate . ( TV : " The Moonbase " , " The Armageddon Factor " , " The Mysterious Planet " ) They sometimes described themselves as a " doctor of many things " ( TV : " Four to Doomsday " ) or of " everything " . ( TV : " Spearhead from Space " , " Utopia " ) However , their knowledge was limited to anything prior to the Rassilon Era . ( TV : " Utopia " ) The Eleventh Doctor claimed that one of his doctorates was in cheesemaking , ( TV : " The God Complex " ) but only the " stinky , blue kind " . ( PROSE : " Shroud of Sorrow " ) On several occasions , the Doctor stated they were not a medical doctor , ( TV : " The Forest of Fear " , " Mighty Kublai Khan " ) though did note that , by their second incarnation , he had studied medicine in the 19th century , ( TV : " The Moonbase " ) although the Twelfth Doctor claimed to have graduated in the wrong century . ( TV : " Death in Heaven " ) Individuals with knowledge of his name . Susan Foreman knew the Doctor ' s real name , and wrote it on the wrappings of a hypercube she sent to him after she had settled down on Earth . ( PROSE : " Ghost of Christmas Past " ) The Sixth Doctor told his dance instructor , Becky , his name . ( PROSE : " Teach Yourself Ballroom Dancing " ) The Eighth Doctor ' s companion , Samantha Jones , overheard his real name being said . She found it quite alien and virtually unpronounceable . ( PROSE : " Vanderdeken ' s Children " ) When the Tenth Doctor first encountered her , River Song claimed to have known him at some point in his future , ( TV : " Silence in the Library " ) and , to prove her " credentials " , she whispered his name in his ear , and apologised for having to do so . The Doctor was shocked at this , as " there [ was ] only one reason [ he ] would ever tell anyone [ his ] name , [ and ] only one time [ he ] could . " ( TV : " Forest of the Dead " ) River indicated to Clara Oswald that she " made " the Doctor tell her his name and that " it took a lot of effort " . ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) Near the end of his tenth incarnation , despite believing there was no one left in the universe who knew it , the Doctor encountered members of an unidentified pan - dimensional race that knew his real name . ( AUDIO : " The Last Voyage " ) While separated from the Eleventh Doctor , Clara Oswald read his name in " The History of the Time War " . That timeline was later averted , however , leaving her with no memory of it , ( TV : " Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS " ) though she later began to recall certain moments of the timeline , ( TV : " The Name of the Doctor " ) and claimed to know the Doctor ' s name when bluffing to the Cybermen about being the Doctor . ( TV : " Death in Heaven " ) Commonly used aliases . John Smith . John Smith was an alias the Doctor frequently used on Earth and around human s when a " standard " name was needed . It was often preceded by the title " Doctor " , though not always — for example , when he was undercover as a teacher at a school or a patient in a hospital . ( TV : " School Reunion " , " Smith and Jones " ) As " John Smith " was considered a generic name in some Earth cultures , the Doctor ' s use of the alias was occasionally treated with scepticism . ( TV : " Midnight " ) During their first incarnation , the Doctor used a library card with the name Dr J . Smith while living at 76 Totter ' s Lane , ( TV : " The Vampires of Venice " ) as well as for identification when renting the junkyard . ( PROSE : " The Rag & Bone Man ' s Story " ) The inspiration for the alias was John Smith of John Smith and the Common Men , with which he was familiar through Susan . ( PROSE : " The Witch Hunters " ) In their second incarnation , the name was independently used by his companion Jamie McCrimmon while the Doctor was being treated for concussion , as he saw it being used as a brand name on a metal container . ( TV : " The Wheel in Space " ) Likewise , Chang Lee chose to register the name for the Seventh Doctor while he was en route to get his bullet wounds healed . ( TV : " Doctor Who " ) The Doctor adopted it on a semi - regular basis during their third incarnation while exiled on Earth , when he served as unpaid scientific advisor to UNIT . ( TV : " Spearhead from Space " , " Inferno " , " The Time Warrior " ) The Doctor twice changed himself into a human who used the name John Smith . This occurred in their seventh incarnation , ( PROSE : " Human Nature " ) and in their tenth incarnation . ( TV : " Human Nature " ) Often , the Doctor would use variations of the name , like the online handle " jsmith " , jsmith8 " , ( PROSE : " Blue Box " , " Lonely " ) the French variation " Jean Forgeron " , ( COMIC : " The Forgotten " ) or the German translation " Johann Schmidt " . ( PROSE : " The Shadow in the Glass " , AUDIO : " Storm Warning " , et al . ) Doctor Who . The name " Doctor Who " was applied to the Doctor on several occasions .

( TV : " The Dæmons " ) The Fourth Doctor wrote a series of children ' s books during his time with UNIT which were mistakenly published under the name " Doctor Who " : they were intended to be " The Doctor , Who Discovers Historical Mysteries " , but the publishers presented it as " Doctor Who Discovers Historical Mysteries " .

( TV : " The Girl in the Fireplace " ) The oldest question in the universe was " Doctor Who ? " ( TV : " The Wedding of River Song " ) The version of the Doctor in the Land of Fiction was known as Dr . Who . ( PROSE : " Prelude Conundrum " , " Conundrum " , " Head Games " ) Theta Sigma . Theta Sigma , informally Thete and occasionally spelt " ΘΣ " , was a nickname of the Doctor at the Time Lord Academy on Gallifrey . ( TV : " The Armageddon Factor " , " The Happiness Patrol " ; COMIC : " Flashback " ) It identified him uniquely amongst the Time Lords and was not to be spoken outside of the Academy . ( PROSE : " Falls the Shadow " ) When the Doctor ' s final incarnation permanently died during the first battle of the War , his coffin had the symbols for " Theta " and " Sigma " on it . ( PROSE : " Alien Bodies " ) In an alternative timeline in which Rassilon failed to finish the Eye of Harmony before his death , the Doctor never left Gallifrey and became a commentator rather than a renegade Time Lord . He was known as Commentator Theta Sigma . ( AUDIO : " Forever " ) Theta Sigma was part of River Song ' s message to the Doctor on the universe ' s oldest cliff - face .

Jabberwock ( Crisis Core ) The Jabberwock is an enemy in " Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII - " , one greatly resembling the Behemoth , but noticeably more savage . Jabberwock is a powerful foe , capable of hitting hard and fast with physical attacks in addition to using the Ultima spell . Costly Punch is the preferred method of dealing with this enemy ' s massive amount of HP , but if one does not have access to it , they can attempt to attack it from behind and use rolls to dodge out of the way of its physicals . Ultima can be rolled if timed perfectly ( it must be timed as the green light shows up , no sooner and no later ) , which if the player can avoid it as such , gives them plenty of time to damage the Jabberwock before having to dodge , and then give them a bit more time to still damage the foe afterwards . Keep Zack ' s HP at full before finishing the beast off , as it will use Comet 2 upon death to try and take Zack with him . The attack does roughly 3 , 000 - 5 , 000 damage .

Battle of Onderon ( Great Sith War ) The Battle of Onderon was a last - ditch effort by the Mandalorian Crusaders to secure a victory in the final stages of the Great Sith War on behalf of the Brotherhood of the Sith . Background . Following Ulic Qel - Droma ' s orders to divert the vast bulk of his Crusaders to the Onderon system , Lord Mandalore the Indomitable ' s fleet carriers took up holding orbits between the planet and its nearby moon of Dxun . Dropping down from behind the moon , the Mandalorian crusaders were first spotted by Queen Galia from her Royal Palace in the center of the walled city of Iziz . Sounding the alarm , King Oron Kira summoned the Beast Riders of Onderon ' s wilderness to meet the onrushing attack . After sending a message to the Galactic Republic requesting reinforcements , Oron and the other riders brought the fight back to the Mandalorians . The battle . In the skies of above Onderon , the Beast Riders and the Mandalorians on their Basilisk war droid s proved to be equally matched . After experiencing taunts from Oron Kira and his men , Mandalore then rallied his troops , fighting with unbridled ferocity . Just as it seemed as though the tide had turned in favor of the Mandalorians , Republic reinforcements in the form of elements of the Republic Swift Fleet commanded by Fleet Captain Vanicus arrived on the battlefront , lending critical firepower to the battle . Caught between the Republic forces and the Beast Riders , the Mandalorian forces were devastated , although Vanicus at first attempted crippling the enemy ships , a feat which proved impossible due to their deflector - shielding . The only course of action of victory or death . Calling a retreat to the moon of Dxun , Mandalore the Indomitable believed he could lose the Republic pursuit in its dense jungles . Unfortunately for Mandalore , while retreating , a Republic frigate fired upon his Basilisk war droid , and he crashed in the forests far away from the other Mandalorian troops . Rising from the wreckage , Lord Mandalore was immediately set upon by two large beasts of the moon , and was subsequently devoured . Aftermath . Initiating a full - scale search of the moon ' s jungles , the remaining Mandalorians scoured the landscape for signs of their leader , but came up empty - handed . However , one shocktrooper in particular happened across the remains of Mandalore the Indomitable ' s mask . Placing the mask on his own head , he became the next Lord Mandalore , Mandalore the Ultimate , whose legacy would affect the galaxy for decades to come .

Page Corps Page Corps ( ) ( ) was a military academy in Imperial Russia , which prepared sons of the nobility and of senior officers for military service . ( The Imperial School of Jurisprudence prepared boys for civil service ) . After the Russian Revolution the Page Corps was replaced with the Suvorov Military School . History . The Page Corps was founded in 1759 in St . Petersburg as a school for teaching and training page s and chamber pages . In light of the need for properly trained officer s for the Guard units , the Page Corps was reorganized in 1802 into an educational establishment similar to cadet schools , which would accept the sons of the hereditary nobility of Russian land , and the sons of at least Lieutenant Generals / Vice Admirals or grandsons of full Generals / Admirals . In 1802 , the curriculum of the Corps des Pages was also changed , thereafter based on the ideals of the Order of St John . In 1810 , the school was moved to the palace of the Sovereign Order of St John of Jerusalem , also known as Vorontsov Palace . It continued at this location in St . Petersburg for over one hundred years ( until the revolution ) . During the period of reforms of military schools in the 1860s , the Page Corps was turned into a seven - grade establishment , the first five grades being similar to military gymnasiums , and the other two being modelled after military colleges . Beginning in 1885 , the Page Corps had seven general classes , where students learned the same sciences offered by cadet schools , and two special classes , where they were taught military science and jurisprudence . By the 1880s , separate infantry , cavalry and artillery departments were in existence . While most graduates entered the Russian Imperial Army as officers , a minority opted for diplomatic or civil service careers . Life in the Page Corps . In common with the other Russian military schools , the Page Corps imposed a harsh regime on its cadets . Corporal punishment involved beatings with a birch for even minor offences and bullying of younger students by their seniors was common . Peter Kropotkin ' s memoirs detail the hazing and other abuse of pages for which the Corps had become notorious . However the education provided was of relatively high standard with courses in mathematics , languages , sciences , and military subjects . Court role and privileges . The students served as pages at Court and provided services at ceremonies , including attendance upon individual members of the Imperial family . Graduates from the Corps des Pages had the unique privilege of joining any regiment of their own choice regardless of the existing vacancies ( however , as a matter of etiquette , the consent of the unit ' s commander was sought long beforehand ) . They wore , on the left side of their tunic , the badge of the Corps des Pages , modeled after the cross of the Order of St John . They received the rank of podporuchik ( cornet in cavalry ) . Those who preferred employment as diplomats or officials rather than military service , would receive civil service ranks of the 10th , 12th , and 14th class . Uniform . The Corps had a range of uniforms for different purposes . The most spectacular of these was the gala uniform worn for Court functions . This comprised a spiked helmet with white plume , a dark green tunic with gold braid covering the front , white breeches and high boots . Disbandment . From its inception until 1917 , the Corps graduated 4 , 505 officers . An additional 200 were unable to complete their courses because of the revolution of 1917 . The school effectively ceased to function following the overthrow of Tsar Nicholas II in February 1917 but was finally closed in June the same year on the orders of Alexander Kerensky , War Minister of the Provisional Government .

USS Nautilus ( SS - 168 ) USS " Nautilus " ( SF - 9 / SS - 168 ) , a and one of the " V - boat s " , was the third ship of the United States Navy to bear the name . She was originally named and designated " V - 6 " ( SF - 9 ) , but was redesignated and given hull classification symbol SC - 2 on 11 February 1925 . Her keel was laid on 10 May 1927 by the Mare Island Naval Shipyard of Vallejo , California . She was launched on 15 March 1930 sponsored by Miss Joan Keesling , and commissioned on 1 July 1930 with Lieutenant Commander Thomas J . Doyle , Jr . in command . " V - 6 " operated out of New London , conducting special submergence tests , until March 1931 . She was renamed " Nautilus " on 19 February and given hull number SS - 168 on 1 July . She proceeded to Pearl Harbor where she became flagship of Submarine Division 12 ( SubDiv 12 ) . Reassigned to SubDiv 13 at San Diego , California , 1935 – 1938 , then re - homeported at Pearl Harbor , she maintained a regular schedule of training activities and fleet exercises and problems throughout the decade . In July 1941 , she entered the Mare Island Naval Shipyard for modernization — radio equipment , external torpedo tubes , re - engining ( with Winton diesels ) , and air conditioning — until the following spring . First patrol — the Battle of Midway . She departed San Francisco , California , on 21 April 1942 , reaching Pearl Harbor on 28 April . On 24 May , " Nautilus " ( commanded by Lieutenant Commander William H . Brockman , Jr . ) got underway for her first war patrol , to Midway Island to help repel the expected attack by the Japanese fleet . At 07 : 55 , 4 June , while approaching the northern boundary of her patrol area near Midway Island , she sighted masts on the horizon . Japanese planes sighted the submarine at the same time and began strafing . After diving to , she continued observation . At 08 : 00 , a formation of four enemy ships was sighted : the battleship " Kirishima " , the cruiser " Nagara " , and two destroyer s ( misidentified , as they often were early in the war , as cruisers ) in company . Within minutes the submarine was again sighted from the air and was bombed . Two of the " cruisers " closed for a kill and nine depth charge s were dropped at a distance of about . When the attack ceased , " Nautilus " rose to periscope depth . Ships surrounded her . Sighting on " Kirishima " , she fired two bow tubes ; one misfired , one missed . At 08 : 30 , a destroyer immediately headed for the boat , which dove to to wait out the depth charge attack . At 08 : 46 , periscope depth was again ordered . The cruiser and two of the destroyers were now out of range ; echo ranging by the third appeared too accurate for comfort . At 09 : 00 , the periscope was raised again and an aircraft carrier was sighted . " Nautilus " changed course to close for an attack . The enemy destroyer followed suit and at 09 : 18 attacked with six depth charges . By 09 : 55 echo ranging ceased and " Nautilus " raised her periscope . The carrier , her escorts , and the attacking destroyer had disappeared . ( Unknown to her skipper at the time , the counterattacking Japanese destroyer Arashi , in his rush to rejoin , was tracked by ' s VB - 6 , led by Wade McClusky , back to the Japanese task force . ) At 12 : 53 , a damaged aircraft carrier with two escorts was sighted . The carrier was identified as " Sōryū " , but later research suggests it was probably " Kaga " . An hour later , " Nautilus " had moved into attack position . Between 13 : 59 and 14 : 05 , after the battle was largely over , " Nautilus " launched four torpedoes at the carrier from less than . One failed to run , two ran erratically , and the fourth was a dud ( a familiar problem for the Mark XIV ) , impacting amidships and breaking in half . " Nautilus " reported flames appeared along the length of the ship as the first hit , and the skeleton crew which had been aboard ( survivors of which reported no torpedo hit ) began going over the side , with the air bottle of the dud torpedo acting as a life preserver for Japanese sailors . " Nautilus " went to as a prolonged depth charge attack commenced . At 16 : 10 , the submarine rose to periscope depth . The carrier , burning along her entire length , had been abandoned . At 19 : 41 , " Nautilus " resumed her patrol , having expended five torpedoes and survived 42 depth charges , but accomplished little of substance . ( Not until much later was the importance of her attack on the battleship , and its connection to McClusky , recognized . ) Her commanding officer was awarded a Navy Cross for his actions . Between 7 June and 9 June , " Nautilus " replenished at Midway Island and then resumed her patrol to the west . By 20 June , she was operating off Honshū at the northern end of the Tokyo - Marshall Islands supply route . On 22 June , she damaged a destroyer guarding the entrance to the Sagami Sea off Ōshima . Three days later , she sank the destroyer " Yamakaze " and damaged an oil tanker . On 27 June , she sent a sampan to the bottom and on 28 June , after damaging a merchantman , underwent her severest depth charging , which forced her back to Pearl Harbor for repairs , 11 July to 7 August . Second patrol — the Makin Raid . " Nautilus " departed Hawaiian waters for her second war patrol , a special troop transport mission of three weeks duration , 8 August . Sailing with submarine and carrying the Second Raider Battalion under Lieutenant Colonel Evans F . Carlson ( the Marine Raiders , or " Carlson ' s Raiders " ) she arrived off Makin Atoll on 16 August to stage a raid to divert Japanese attention from the Solomon Islands . Early the following morning , she sent the Raiders ashore on Butaritari Island in rubber boats rigged with outboard motors . At 07 : 03 , she provided gunfire support against enemy positions at Ukiangong Point on Butaritari and shelled enemy ships in the lagoon , sinking two , a troop barge and a patrol boat . At 10 : 39 , an enemy plane appeared and " Nautilus " dove . Two aerial attacks followed at 11 : 30 and at 12 : 55 . The latter flight was made up of 12 planes , two of which landed in the lagoon to discharge troops . About 35 of the reinforcements made it to shore to fire on the Americans . The Marines began to withdraw at 17 : 00 . At 19 : 00 , they launched their boats . Many were unable to clear the breakers without the aid of their damaged outboards . Only seven boats and less than 100 men returned that night . The remainder , less nine who were later captured and executed , discovered there were no Japanese left to fight and crossed to the lagoon side , whence they headed for the submarine after nightfall on 18 August . Thinking all surviving marines were on board , " Nautilus " and " Argonaut " set course for Pearl Harbor , arriving 25 August . 3rd – 5th patrols , September 1942 – April 1943 . On her third war patrol , from 15 September to 5 November , " Nautilus " returned to Japanese waters to join the submarine blockade chain stretched from the Kurile Islands to the Nansei Shoto . Despite heavy seas , which precluded periscope use and torpedo firing during much of the patrol , and mechanical breakdowns , which impeded approaches to targets , she torpedoed and sank three " maru " s and , in surface action , destroyed three sampans to add over 12 , 000 tons to her score . On 12 October , however , the patrol became one of her more perilous , as she took a heavy depth charging . Two days later , her crew noticed a slight oil slick in her wake . The hindering seas now protected by breaking up the trace . By 19 October , the leak had enlarged considerably and on 20 October , the first relatively calm day since the depth charging , air leaks were discovered . " Nautilus " was leaving a trail for Japanese defense patrols . Moving to a quieter area , with less aerial activity , she continued her patrol until 24 October when she sank her third " maru " of the patrol , then headed for home without sighting enemy planes . She reached Midway Island 31 October , performed temporary repairs , and continued on to Pearl Harbor . During her fourth patrol , conducted in the Solomon Islands from on 13 December 1942 to on 4 February 1943 , " Nautilus " rescued 26 adults and three children from Toep Harbor on 31 December and 1 January , then added the cargo ship " Yosinogawa Maru " to her kills and damaged a tanker , a freighter , and a destroyer . On 4 February , she arrived at Brisbane , debarked her passengers , and sailed for Pearl Harbor . Arriving 15 April , she departed five days later heading north . On 27 April , she put into Dutch Harbor , Alaska , and commenced instructing 7th Infantry Division Provisional Scout Battalion in amphibious landings . She then embarked 109 Scouts and on 1 May , headed for Attu . There , on 11 April , she landed her " passengers " five hours before the main assault . 6th – 8th patrols , September 1943 – April 1944 . Overhaul at Mare Island occupied most of the summer and on 16 September " Nautilus " left Pearl Harbor to spend her sixth war patrol conducting photo - reconnaissance of the Gilbert Islands , concentrating on Tarawa , Kuma , Butaritari , Abemama , and Makin , all of which had been reinforced , particularly Tarawa , since the sub ' s 1942 excursion into those waters . The information , including continuous panoramic pictures of the coastlines and chart corrections , which she brought back to Pearl Harbor on 17 October , proved among the most useful intelligence gathered of the area . She returned to Tarawa 18 November to obtain last - minute information on weather and surf conditions , landing hazards and the results of recent bombardments . At 21 : 59 , 19 November , mistaking her as an enemy , destroyer fired at her , sending a five - inch ( 127 mm ) shell through the conning tower , damaging the main induction valve . Diving as soon as the topography permitted , the boat was rigged for depth charge and the damage control party went to work . Within two hours repairs were sufficient to allow " Nautilus " to continue with her primary mission : landing a 78 - man scouting party , composed of 5th Amphibious Reconnaissance Company marines and an Australian scout , on Abemama . At midnight , 20 November – 21 November , " Nautilus " lay off an island in the Abemama Atoll , Kenna to discharge her passengers . By 15 : 00 , all were safely ashore . On the afternoon of 22 November , " Nautilus " provided fire support to bring the tiny ( 25 - man ) enemy garrison out of their bunkers . This proved accurate , killing 14 ; the remainder committed suicide . By the time the main assault force arrived on 26 November , Abemama had been secured and preparations to turn it into an air base for the Marshall Islands campaign had begun . " Nautilus " returned to Pearl Harbor on 4 December to prepare for her eighth war patrol . Conducted north of Palau and west of the Mariana Islands from 27 January to on 21 March 1944 , this netted one cargo ship sunk , the 6 , 070 - ton " America Maru " , with damage inflicted on three others . On 26 April , " Nautilus " sailed for Brisbane , whence she departed 29 May to begin a series of special missions in support of guerrilla and reconnaissance activities in the Philippines . 9th – 14th patrols , May 1944 – January 1945 . On her ninth patrol , from 29 May to 11 June , she carried ammunition , oil , and dry stores to Colonel R . V . Bowler on Mindanao . Between 12 June and 27 June , she transported a similar cargo to Negros Island and embarked evacuees , including one German POW , for Darwin . During her 11th patrol , from 30 June to 27 July , she landed a reconnaissance party and 12 tons of stores on North Pandan Island , and more supplies to Colonel Kangleon on Leyte and Colonel Abcede on Mindanao . Her 12th , 13th and 14th patrols , she returned to the central Philippines , landed personnel and supplies at various points on Mindanao and Luzon , and carried evacuees to Australia . On 25 September , during the first of these three patrols , she grounded on Iuisan Shoal . Forced to lighten her load , her evacuees , mail , captured documents , and cargo were sent ashore . All secret materials were burned . Her reserve fuel tanks were blown dry , variable ballast was blown overboard and six - inch ( 152 mm ) ammunition jettisoned . With the blowing of her main ballast tanks she was finally able to get off the reef within three and a half hours , despite the receding tide , and clear the area by dawn . During her 13th patrol , on 31 October 1944 , " Nautilus " finished off , which had run aground on a reef and could not be recovered . Numerous attempts to torpedo the wreck had failed as torpedoes detonated on the reef . " Nautilus ' s " six - inch ( 152 mm ) guns , however , scored 55 hits , and her report states , " It is doubtful that any equipment in " Darter " at 11 : 30 this date would be of any value to Japan — except as scrap . " " Nautilus " completed her 14th , and last , patrol at Darwin on 30 January 1945 . From Australia , she was routed on to Philadelphia , Pennsylvania , where she arrived 25 May for inactivation . Decommissioned with a bottle of champagne over the forward six - inch ( 152 mm ) gun on 30 June , she was stricken from the Naval Vessel Register 25 July and sold 16 November , to the North American Smelting Company of Philadelphia , Pennsylvania , for scrapping . Awards . " Nautilus " earned the Presidential Unit Citation for her aggressive war patrols in enemy controlled waters as well as 14 battle star s for her service during World War II . Her commanding officer was awarded a Navy Cross for his actions during the Battle of Midway .

Tetricus I Gaius Pius Esuvius Tetricus was Emperor of the Gallic Empire ( " Imperium Galliarum " ) from 271 to 274 , following the murder of Victorinus . Tetricus , who ruled with his son , Tetricus II , was the last of the Gallic emperors following his surrender to the Roman emperor Aurelian . Reign . Tetricus was a senator born to a noble family of Gallic extraction . He was appointed to the administrative position of " praeses provinciae " ( provincial governor ) of Gallia Aquitania in 270 , a position he still held when the murder of Victorinus was announced in early 271 . Victorinus ' mother , Victoria , located at Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium , managed to keep control of the political situation after her son ’ s death ; through her influence ( and a large amount of money ) , she bribed the army to declare the absent Tetricus emperor . Tetricus accepted the army ’ s nomination and took the purple at Burdigala in Gaul . Moving from Burdigala , he was on his way to Augusta Treverorum when Tetricus was forced to repel Germanic tribes that took advantage of the confusion following the death of Victorinus to invade Gaul . By the end of 271 Tetricus had made Augusta Treverorum , near the vital Rhine border , his capital , and had celebrated a " Victoria Germanica " , but was again called out in 272 to deal with a fresh incursion that reached the River Loire . However , continued invasions across the Rhine and along the coasts forced Tetricus to abandon the frontier forts and withdraw the troops to defend the interior of Gaul . Regardless of his difficulties with the Germanic invasions , Tetricus was recognised as emperor throughout Britain and most of Gaul apart from Narbonensis , where Placidianus had reclaimed some territory under Claudius II Gothicus . Although Tetricus made no move to expand his territorial reach , he did invest time and resources reclaiming some provinces that had been reconquered by the central empire , such as south - eastern Aquitania and the western parts of Narbonensis . Nevertheless , his regime was destabilised by attempts of certain areas to declare their allegiance to the Roman emperor Aurelian , such as the city of Argentoratum in 272 . It was to shore up his internal support that Tetricus eventually appointed his son , Tetricus II , as " Caesar " sometime in 273 , after celebrating his second consulship on 1 January 273 . It did little to stem his faltering regime as in late 273 or early 274 , Faustinus , provincial governor of Gallia Belgica , rebelled against him in Augusta Treverorum . To add to his woes , by the middle of 273 , the emperor Aurelian set out to reconquer the western provinces of the Roman empire , following his victories in the east . Preparing for his advance , Tetricus and his son celebrated their joint consulship on 1 January 274 before marching southward from his capital at Augusta Treverorum to meet Aurelian , who was advancing into northern Gaul . The decisive battle took place near Châlons - sur - Marne , in late February 274 where Tetricus ’ army was cut to pieces in an event remembered as the " Catalaunian catastrophe " . By March 274 , both Tetricus and his son had surrendered to Aurelian . Later imperial propaganda declared that Tetricus had agreed to surrender to Aurelian in exchange for his life , but the price was to be his betrayal of his army prior to battle , which continued to fight even when notified of Tetricus ’ actions . It was claimed that Tetricus quoted Virgil in his letter to Aurelian : " eripe me his , invicte , malis " ( “ rescue me undefeated from these troubles ” ) . According to literary sources , after being displayed as trophies at Aurelian ' s triumph in Rome , the lives of Tetricus and his son were spared by Aurelian , and Tetricus was even given the title of " corrector Lucaniae et Bruttiorum " , that is governor of a southern region of Italia . Tetricus died at an unknown date in Italy ; he is listed as one of Rome ' s Thirty Tyrants in the Historia Augusta . Numismatics . The antoninianii ( silver coins ) of Tetricus were the most frequently imitated prototypes for barbarous radiate s , barbaric imitations of Roman coins .

Raymond Wolf Raymond Bernard Wolf ( July 15 , 1904 – October 6 , 1979 ) , nicknamed " Bear " Wolf , was an American football and baseball player and coach . Wolf was a native of Illinois and an alumnus of Texas Christian University ( TCU ) , where he played college football and college baseball . He played professional baseball for two seasons , and appeared in one Major League Baseball game for the Cincinnati Reds in 1927 . Wolf served as the head football coach at the University of North Carolina ( 1936 – 1941 ) , the University of Florida ( 1946 – 1949 ) and Tulane University ( 1952 – 1953 ) , compiling a career college football coaching record of 57 – 54 – 6 . He was also the head baseball coach at his alma mater , TCU , from 1935 to 1936 and the athletic director at Florida from 1946 to 1949 . Early years . Wolf was born in Chicago , Illinois in 1904 . He attended Texas Christian University ( TCU ) in Fort Worth , Texas , where he played tackle for the Texas Christian Horned Frogs football team from 1924 to 1926 . He played professional baseball for the Cincinnati Reds organization for a single season in 1927 , but returned to TCU to graduate in 1928 . Thereafter , Wolf got his start in coaching , working with the TCU linemen from 1929 to 1935 . Coaching career . From 1936 to 1941 , Wolf was employed by the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill , North Carolina to coach the North Carolina Tar Heels football team , and compiled a 38 – 17 – 3 record in six seasons . The university board of trustees renewed his contract at an increased salary in 1941 for an additional five years , but his war - time service prevented him from coaching during World War II . Wolf served as an officer in the U . S . Navy Reserve during World War II , and worked as a football coach at two of the service ' s naval aviation training stations , including the Navy ' s Pre - Flight School in Athens , Georgia and Flight Preparatory School in Austin , Texas . He was eventually promoted to lieutenant commander , and after the war ended in September 1945 , the Navy released Wolf to inactive duty . In 1946 , Wolf was hired by the University of Florida in Gainesville , Florida to be the new head football coach of the Florida Gators football team , replacing coach Tom Lieb . Wolf coached the Gators for four seasons from 1946 to 1949 and posted a 13 – 24 – 2 record , but his Southeastern Conference ( SEC ) record was 2 – 17 – 2 . The Florida Board of Control balked at renewing his contract when his initial three - year term expired after the 1948 season , but offered him a two - year contract extension in the aftermath of widespread public demonstrations of support by the football team and the Florida student body . Wolf was fired after the 1949 season , but nevertheless managed to leave Florida on a high note when his 1949 Gators upset the rival Georgia Bulldogs 28 – 7 for the first and only time during his tenure . In retrospect , Wolf ' s loyal Gators football players ironically dubbed his tenure as the " Golden Era , " and many of his returning players formed the nucleus of Bob Woodruff ' s improving Gators football teams of the early 1950s . In 1950 , Wolf was hired by head coach Henry Frnka of Tulane University in New Orleans , Louisiana , to be a senior assistant coach for the Tulane Green Wave football team . When Frnka unexpectedly resigned in March 1952 , Wolf became the head coach and led the Green Wave during the 1952 and 1953 seasons , finishing with a 6 – 13 – 1 overall record and 3 – 12 in the SEC . Later years . After retiring from coaching after the 1953 season , Wolf became an administrative officer at TCU , his alma mater . He was honored as a member of the TCU Lettermen ' s Association Hall of Fame . Wolf died of cancer in Fort Worth , Texas in 1979 .

ocean

Sea ( location ) The sea , also called ocean , is a recurring terrain type on the world map in the " Final Fantasy " series . It is a feature in most maps and cannot be traveled on without use of another vehicle , such as a boat , a canoe , or a submarine . Many vehicles that can only travel on certain depths , for example , the canoe and buggy , can only travel over shallow s , while various types of advanced chocobo can travel over deeper water , but not the entire ocean . The sea is used to separate continents and keeps the player from progressing to later parts of the game . An example of this is in the original " Final Fantasy " where the player starts limited to Cornelia and the Chaos Shrine . The player must complete the events of the Chaos Shrine dungeon to trigger the finishing of the Drawbridge to bridge the continents leading to further areas . Sometimes enemies can be fought in the sea . In the earlier entries of the " Final Fantasy " series , players would get into random encounter s when traveling over the sea in a boat . These encounters can still be escaped from . Notable world maps lacking seas include the Underworld and Moon from " Final Fantasy IV " . The former uses lava as a replacement . Appearances . " Final Fantasy " . The only way to travel by sea is via the pirate ship , obtainable by defeating the pirates at Pravoka . At first the player can only sail between the Cornelia , Pravoka and Elfheim in the inner sea , but once the Nitro Powder is used to clear a new passageway the player can sail through all deep waters . Random encounters can occur while on the sea , but they are not as frequent as on land . " Final Fantasy III " . The player can travel by sea with the " Enterprise " , and underwater after the " Nautilus " is enchanted by Doga . " Final Fantasy V " . Random encounters can occur while the party travels on the sea by boat . " Final Fantasy VII " . The sea separates each continent . The ways to cross the sea are using the Tiny Bronco , " Highwind " , submarine , Cargo Ship from Costa del Sol or a gold chocobo . The Bottom of the Sea is explorable via the submarine where one can find the sunken Gelnika and Emerald Weapon . The Junon Underwater Reactor can also be seen , but not entered , from the sea , as going through Junon is the only way to reach it . " Final Fantasy VIII " . The sea has few ways to cross it : Balamb Garden , once it becomes mobile , and the " Ragnarok " . A SeeD Assault Boat is used during the Siege of Dollet . Chocobos can cross shallow water and are the means of reaching the " Ragnarok " during endgame . The White SeeD Ship appears as a location in the sea during a storyline event . " Final Fantasy IX " . There are several boats and airships to explore Gaia with : the " Blue Narciss " , " Hilda Garde I " , and the " Hilda Garde III " , and the " Invincible " . The " Prima Vista " , the " Red Rose " , used as a warship by Queen Brahne , the Alexandrian Fleet , the " Cargo Ship " , and " Hilda Garde II " also appear in the story but cannot be controlled by the party . The party can also cross the oceans with Choco who learns new abilities to cross terrain by visiting Chocobo ' s Dream World . " Final Fantasy X " . At Besaid ' s beach the water can be swam in , but not far from the shore . Baaj Temple in the middle of the ocean can be swam in as well . In Kilika and other locations the ocean is simply a background feature . The boss Geosgaeno is fought twice underwater , once at the start of the game and once after the player acquires the airship as an optional fight . The sea is otherwise seen on the map when selecting a location for the airship . Oceans make up a considerable portion of Spira and Tidus ' s Zanarkand is located far out in the sea . The seas are not roamed much because of the threat of Sin . To travel between the islands the chocobo - powered ships " S . S . Liki " and " S . S . Winno " are used . " Final Fantasy XII " . The sea appears in a variety of places . Dalmasca Estersand has a river that can be crossed midway through the game and has a fishing minigame once the player has acquired a fishing rod . The Ogir - Yensa Sandsea and Nam - Yensa Sandsea are characterised by sand that moves like water , hence their name . The Ridorana Cataract and the Pharos have sea around them , Reddas sent fleets of boat s to the Pharos at Ridorana but they were all destroyed by the waves around the Ridorana Cataract . The Balfonheim Port has sea around it , but is used as the background . " Final Fantasy XIV " . Being on an island , the La Noscea region is surrounded by sea . Some instanced duties have players fighting on - board a ship . The primal Leviathan is fought on a barge floating out at sea . " Final Fantasy Tactics " .

10th infantry brigade

10th Brigade ( Australia ) The 10th Brigade was an infantry brigade of the Australian Army . It was raised in 1916 as part of the expansion of the Australian Imperial Force following the end of the Gallipoli campaign and subsequently saw service on the Western Front in France and Belgium during the First World War . After the war it was disbanded but was re - raised in 1921 as a part - time formation based in the state of Victoria . During the Second World War the brigade was used in a garrison role in Australia before being disbanded in 1942 . History . It was initially formed in 1916 as an Australian Imperial Force formation for service during the First World War . Assigned to the 3rd Division , upon formation it consisted of four battalions — the 37th , 38th , 39th and 40th Battalions — which were raised in Victoria and Tasmania . In July 1916 the brigade sailed to England where it undertook further training before being committed to the fighting on the Western Front in late 1916 . For the next two years they took part in many of the battles that the Australians fought in France and Belgium until the armistice in November 1918 . Shortly before the end of the war , the brigade ' s establishment was reduced to three infantry battalions as one — the 37th — was disbanded in September in order to reinforce the other battalions . This was due to widespread manpower shortages in the AIF as a result of the high number of casualties suffered during the Hundred Days Offensive . Following the end of the war , the 10th Brigade was disbanded , however , in 1921 it was re - raised as part of the Militia after it was decided to perpetuate the designations and battle honour s of the AIF by reorganising Australia ' s part - time military force . At this time , the brigade was based in Victoria and consisted of four infantry battalions : the 24th , 37th , 39th and 48th . On 1 May 1926 Thomas Blamey became commander of the brigade , remaining in the position until he took over the 3rd Division on 23 March 1931 . Upon the outbreak of the Second World War , the brigade was based in Victoria in September 1939 , and assigned to the 3rd Division . On 8 December 1941 the brigade was mobilised for full - time duty as the Militia was called up for garrison and defensive duties following Japan ' s entry into the war . As part of the mobilisation process , the brigade was reorganised into a brigade - group formation with organic artillery , anti - tank and engineer support . Its establishment was also reduced from four infantry battalions to three as the Australian Army moved towards the British Army brigade structure . In September 1942 , however , after moving to Queensland , it was disbanded — having not seen active service — as part of the reallocation of manpower resources that occurred within the Australian Army at that time . During the war , the 10th Brigade ' s subordinate units included : the 37th , 52nd , 24th / 39th and 24th Battalions , as well as the 2nd Field Regiment , Royal Australian Artillery , the 10th Field Company , Royal Australian Engineers and the 23rd Anti - Tank Battery , Royal Australian Artillery .

Something Borrowed ( TV story ) Something Borrowed was the ninth episode in the second series of " Torchwood " . It saw Gwen Cooper marry Rhys Williams and confirm her feelings for Captain Jack Harkness . This episode also marked the first appearance of Gwen ' s parents , Mary and Geraint Cooper , along with Rhys ' s own parents , Brenda and Barry Williams , who make their only appearance . The episode also makes references to Owen and Tosh ' s own relationship , and what could have been if he was alive . Synopsis . Gwen Cooper is about to get married to her fiancé Rhys . Only one problem : on her honeymoon night she is bitten by an alien and wakes on her wedding day heavily pregnant with a shape - shifter ' s baby . The alien mother is on the loose and searching for its offspring . The only way for the alien to get the egg is to rip open its carrier , Gwen . . . Plot . Gwen is late for her hen night , when she is sent after an alien with a carnivorous appetite . When wounded , its black blood tells the team that it ' s a shape - shifter . Following the trail of blood , she calls Jack in as backup . Suddenly the creature attacks and bites Gwen ' s arm as she struggles to fend it off . A gunshot rings out and the creature falls to the ground , dead . Jack helps Gwen up , taking notice of the bite wound and insists on having Owen examine it . Once her arm is bandaged , Gwen takes off for her hen night ; she explains that work kept her late . Her friends tease her with risqué comments about Rhys . Gwen wakes up in her flat the next day , feeling drowsy after her late night . She smiles as she spies her wedding dress . As she gets up she catches her reflection in the mirror ; she looks pregnant . . . " very " pregnant . Shocked , all Gwen can say is " Oh . . . " Gwen calls Jack and Owen for help . Gwen is dismissive of Owen ' s confirmation that she is pregnant and asks Jack for a second opinion . He agrees that she is obviously pregnant , prompting Gwen to ask incredulously " What with ? " Jack explains some aliens keep their bloodline going by passing eggs onto a host ; inside , they mature until ready to be born . He then makes a joke about how " Darwin would have a field day if he got to space " . Jack also explains that there is a procedure for this ; the public know it as immaculate conception . Jack tries to persuade Gwen to cancel the wedding , but she declines the idea . He then tells Gwen that her hormones are affecting her thinking , prompting an angry reply from Gwen as she wolfs down gherkins . Gwen asks Owen if her life is in immediate danger and Owen replies that if she and the alien fetus were biologically incompatible she would already be dead , so Gwen decides to wait until after the wedding to have the alien fetus removed . However , she does call Rhys to explain what has happened ; he heads straight home and begins ranting . Rhys also tries to postpone the wedding but Gwen insists and he gives in after Gwen tearfully tells him that all she wants to do today is marry him . The couple tells their families that they wanted to surprise them with the news of the pregnancy . However , Gwen realises this lie won ' t work ; their parents will be planning for their grandchild and telling them later that she lost the child would be devastating . Tosh arrives at the wedding venue , sent by Jack to guard Gwen . After being propositioned by Rhys ' best man , " Banana Boat " , Tosh delivers Gwen ' s new maternity wedding dress . They discuss the possibility of a relationship between Tosh and Owen . Tosh notes that the wedding vows would seem like a bad joke , since Owen is undead . Back at the hub , Owen ' s autopsy determines the creature is a Nostrovite , a carnivorous shape shifter who mates for life and hunts in pairs . After fertilisation , the female transfers eggs to the male , who transfers them to a host to incubate until the offspring is mature . The female then kills the host , releasing its newborn in a " midwife from hell " fashion . The mate of the dead Nostrovite will be hunting Gwen . The Nostrovite infiltrates the wedding and murders the DJ , eating most of him . Her presence is detected by Tosh and Banana Boat ; Banana ' s blunder costs Tosh the chance to shoot the creature . They ' re knocked out and trapped on a bed in a black , web - like construct . Gwen and Rhys are at the altar when Jack demands the wedding be stopped . Owen and Ianto rescue Tosh and Banana Boat . They also find Mervyn the DJ ' s mangled corpse . A bridesmaid , Megan , enters the room . Seeing Mervin ' s body , she flees . Jack orders Ianto to go after her , but he fails to stop her before she screams murder to the entire wedding party . Ianto jams the phone lines via the Torchwood SUV to prevent the guests summoning the police and Jack reveals his Torchwood affiliation , much to the surprise of Gwen ' s father . Before he can press the issue , Tosh notices the alien mother and alerts Jack . The Nostrovite reveals its true appearance and attempts to attack them , but flees out the window under a hail of bullets . Tosh and Jack give chase but lose its trail , though Tosh surmises that it won ' t have gone far without its child Jack checks in with Owen about Gwen ' s condition , and Owen tells him Rhys ' mother Brenda is with the couple . Tosh notices Brenda with Gwen ' s mother in the garden , however , and they come to the conclusion that the alien has assumed Brenda ' s form to get close to Gwen . Tosh and Jack reach the couple ' s room , where Jack calls the Brenda alien an " ugly bitch " and reveals to Rhys and Gwen that the Nostrovite has disguised itself as Rhys ' mum . Gwen asks if the alien can copy smells as well as appearance . On being told no , Gwen concludes that this is the real Brenda because she is wearing her familiar , awful perfume . Rhys punches Jack for calling his mum an ugly bitch . The team plus Rhys reach the garden to find the Nostrovite still with Gwen ' s mother Mary . They confront the Nostrovite and she takes Mary hostage , demanding her child in exchange . Gwen calmly walks towards them but as she gets close the Nostrovite releases Mary and charges . Gwen shoots it several times in the stomach with a gun hidden in her bouquet , but it manages to flee . Owen has brought the singularity scalpel to destroy the egg . He sends Gwen to her room , but takes Rhys aside while he tells Rhys about the scalpel and teaches him how to use it ; Owen ' s knackered hand means Rhys would have better accuracy with the scalpel . Jack enters Gwen ' s room whilst Owen and Rhys are talking . He and Gwen share an emotional conversation about their feelings for each other . As they are about to kiss , Jack transforms into the Nostrovite . Owen enters and shoots the Nostrovite while Gwen exits with Rhys . After realising Owen is dead the Nostrovite breaks off its attack , choosing to pursue Gwen . The rest of the team meet up with Owen , who explains that he and Gwen emptied whole clips of bullets into the alien , but " some mother instinct or something " is making it unstoppable . Since ordinary firearms are ineffective , Jack decides that they need a bigger gun and begins to assemble one taken from the SUV ' s boot . Rhys and Gwen reach the stable and Rhys explains Owen ' s plan to remove the egg with the singularoty scalpel ; Gwen is not enthused but they are out of choices . Rhys removes the egg and just as it is vapourised the Nostrovite breaks in , impersonating Rhys ' mother again . She moves toward Rhys , who picks up a nearby chainsaw . Furious at all that the creature has done to ruin his wedding day and threaten his bride and family , he lunges at the Nostrovite with the chainsaw . At that moment the chainsaw stops working , causing Rhys to swear profusely . The Nostrovite mockingly calls him a bad boy ( " You know what bad boys get ? ! " ) and raises its claws to attack him . Before it can do so , it is blown to bits from behind , spattering Rhys with its gory remains and black blood , and revealing Jack at the door with a large laser gun . Jack grins " How ' s " that " for a shape - shift ? " and helps Gwen up . Putting her hand in Rhys ' , Jack proclaims , " The hero always gets the girl " . Rhys and Gwen ' s ceremony resumes and the somewhat disheveled couple are wed . At the reception , Jack dances with Gwen and wishes her well . Rhys and Gwen notice everyone falling asleep . Jack has retcon ned the wedding party and guests so they will not remember the bizarre events . Jack offers the couple pills as well , but Gwen declines . She insists there will " be no secrets in this marriage " . They exit , thanking the team for everything . Jack and the others clean up . Ianto notes the irony of fighting aliens by day and being " Wedding Fairies " by night . Later , Jack enters the Hub alone , blowing some confetti in the air . He retrieves a battered tin box holding old pictures . He looks through them , reminiscing , but picks one up and stops . This picture shows Jack and his bride at their wedding . Story notes .
