DYAD is a collaboration between a poet and a graphic artist. In its thirty-two image-poems, linear reading expands into spatial exploration, so that each piece is both a poem and a work of visual art. More than a text or script, other than a mere series or set of segments of alphabetic writing, each image-poem turns, rather, into an intricate artefact with a plasticity of its own, and its own implicit depths, potential undercurrents and explicitly actualised surfaces. An image-field is created, among whose patterns meanings and forms interact - and play.

It's always darkest before dawn. Secret government unit Department 19 is recovering from evil vampire Valeri Rusmanov's deadly attack on their base. The Department’s newest member, teenage operator Jamie Carpenter, is tasked with training up a new squad, as his friends and colleagues desperately search for ways to try to stop what is coming. The timing couldn’t be worse for a coordinated, global attack on a number of maximum security prisons and hospitals—with the already-dangerous inmates now on the loose and turned into vampires. One of the escapees has a deep connection to one of the darkest moments in the history of Department 19 and embarks on a quest that threatens to expose the existence of vampires to the public. And with each day that passes, the regenerated Dracula gets stronger, bringing Zero Hour closer. In this third installment of the epic Department 19 series, Will Hill delivers higher—and sharper—stakes than ever before.

The paper undertakes to review the history of the US Army ROTC Program, to describe the present status of ROTC in the colleges and universities and to submit a proposal for a revised program which will preserve this valuable source of junior officers. Owing to the importance of continuing the ROTC Program, it is suggested that the present Two Year Program be modified as the basis for a new system to train officers on the campus. The four year program would eventually be discontinued except at military colleges. The recommended program is designed to produce better trained officers upon graduation. (Modified author abstract).
