Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women

August 26, 2010 by Jaren

Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women

Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women (Star Trek) (Paperback)

The Legendary Men Of Romance — Casanova, Don Juan, James Bond, move over because only one man can teach us how get every woman we want, even if it’s anywhere on the planet or the whole freaking universe.

“one man can boast that his seductive powers take him boldly where no man has gone before: James T. Kirk.”

Captain Kirk’s status as an interstellar stud is proven by his ability to seduce any woman, in any situation, in any part of the galaxy. From high-society princesses to unbalanced Orion slave girls, from gender-switching shape-shifters to emotion-deprived androids — they all swoon, acquiesce, and malfunction from just one kiss.

Geeky boys and fan boys will definitely enjoy this stellar find as we prepare ourselves to be educated to be the geeky interstellar stud muffin that we are.

Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women is the first book to answer this question by probing deeply into Kirk’s character, charisma, and seductive techniques, making it possible for any man to model himself after the Casanova of the Cosmos. It is also the only warp-powered romance manual written with enough wit, charm, and humor to help the female of the species make first contact.

Scientists have developed Star Trek-like phasers

November 22, 2009 by Ade

Ah, science. What would we do without you? You make everything just plain awesome. And you keep on topping yourself each time.

Case in point: scientists have created a way to create a phaser that causes paralysis. You know, as in “set phasers to stun.”

Scientists have developed a Star Trek-like phaser, capable of causing paralysis with a beam of light.

A phaser traditionally emits a beam capable of stunning or killing an enemy. However, anyone hoping that the machine will become a powerful new weapon could be disappointed, scientists have only proven the effect on worms.

Researchers have now found a way to paralyse tiny worms when they expose them to ultraviolet light. Even when the ultraviolet light was turned off the animals stayed stunned. However, if they were subsequently exposed to a different form of light they recovered again and were able to move.

The researchers claim that this is the first time that such an effect has been demonstrated in an animal. Although some of the worms died, most of them lived through the process. The effect is caused by using a molecule which changes its shape when exposed to ultraviolet light.

The scientists, from Simon Fraser University in Canada, fed the molecule to the worms and then tested what happened when they exposed them to the light. The team behind the study claim that the phaser could someday be used as a treatment for medical conditions, but admit that they are as yet unsure what they would be.

The findings are published in Journal of the American Chemical Society.
