 Ship Bottom blends old, new
Of course, running smack into Ship Bottom was something of a habit among early ship captains.
And when Ship Bottom was casting around for a 75th anniversary logo, it seemed inevitable that it would use an artist's rendering of a shipwreck as part of it.
These days, according to Pat Adair, a Ship Bottom resident since 1949, it's not what the ocean washes onto shore that concerns residents, it's what the sea might bear away even given the tide flex valves the borough installs to make the water harder to come in and easier to leave.

 ST-v-SW.Net :: Photon Torpedo Shields
We know what a ship looks like when it has shield power driven up to such an extent that the ship is not worried about burning out its own works (the one-way trip Orion pirate vessel in "Journey to Babel"[TOS]).
Further, we know that photon torpedoes can comfortably enter a star ("Half a Life"[TNG]), or smack into a planet and dig before detonating ("Pen Pals"[TNG]).
Though this seems curious given that Enterprise herself has no actual shields, we've already seen the small-scale application of forcefield technology on the ship, as hastily rigged up by Lt. Reed in "Vox Sola"[ENT1].

I get there, and my time machine ship had crashed and everyone else on board died except me, and when I wake up, I find myself smack in the middle of this war and can’t get back to my own time.
What’s worse, one of their scientists who was working on a weapon that could possible change the tide in their favor is missing, along with all his research (it was on his ship with him when he was shot down by a Wraith dart over Athos).
The Ancients are all pretty nice about it but are more preoccupied with the whole impending doom thing: three Wraith hive ships are on their way to Atlantis.

 Burke and Hare [1971] @ EOFFTV
His reliance on dull sex scenes to pep things up a bit smack of desperation - in truth, it really needed a dose of historical accuracy, or the very least a semblance of authentic ambience.
The fact that he was capable of interesting work like Man in the Back Seat [1960], Ghost Ship [1952] and above all House of Mystery [1961] suggest that his talents were no accident - Burke and Hare, on the other hand, suggest that maybe his detractors have been right all along.
Edinburgh surgeon Dr Knox employs the dubious services of Burke and Hare, a pair of grave robbers to find corpses for his anatomy classes.

 The Slacker's Guide - The Slacker's Guide to Shareware Gaming The Mac Observer
Good graphics with an old school feel, detailed sounds (including the smack of the ball against the court as well as the grunt of a player as they swing) and realistic physics combine beautifully to create a game that's as much fun to play for five minutes as it is for two hours.
This idea is perfectly expressed in Ragdoll Masters, a shareware fighting simulator by Ragdoll Software's Matteo Guarnieri, the author of Radical Rebound (a title which has has the player engaging in space combat through the tactical use of a ship's shields in lieu of guns).
The Slacker may not have all the spare time of a 15-year-old from which to create a formidable set of gaming skills, but with the right effort, he can still come close.

She remained there that day, and proceeded, under the obscurity of the following night, towards the town of Funchal; but on her way she struck, and must have been wrecked but for the assistance of a fishing-smack that happened to be near at the moment.
His Majesty's ship Tweed, visited this place on her way to the Cape of Good Hope station, and a great proportion of the young officers who slept on shore, died within a fortnight afterwards.
The bay abounds with fine fish, yet there are not many taken, therefore the town is badly supplied, owing entirely to the indolence of the inhabitants.

 Bad Apple - Computer games
The load times are abysmal, and Ritual do deserve a smack in the mouth for letting the game ship before it was finished, regardless of whether this was due to their decision or pressure from Activision (because, lets face it, what was on the Sin CD was by no means a completed program).
Sin's multiplayer portion is to some extent a letdown.
There is more than one way through a lot of the levels, and a lot of levels can be skipped and may or may not be accessible depending on your actions earlier in the game.

Oh well, the Robot locates the ship and in a muddled way manages to crack it open without killing Johnny, Jerry and Suzuki who we only know is there in the cell because Jerry says "Get Suzuki...the robot can fly us all out!" The robot frees the UNICORN agent and flies out into the sky.
There was one where the Robot fought a giant eyeball (!!) and had to shut it by using its "Belt buckle" that extended in a way that made me and my cousin crack the kind of jokes that made my grandma smack us...and there was another episode where a second Giant robot went berserk!
This is the silliest part of the thing...the monster is a robot, but its a robot with rooms and corridors etc. Botanus and the Gargoyle men ride inside of it.

Luckily Kyo was peeved enough to smack Rugal to Heidern's point (what I call, the almost defeated sure to lose point, named after when Heidern whooped up on Rugal to the point of Rugal's cheating).
Rugal is just taken back at how he just failed all over the place, but he's still concious enough to be an idiot who just can't shut up (sorry, couldn't help it), which impresses Goenitz and ALSO brings forth the scholar within G. and G. decides to experiment with Rugal as a pawn.

Departing, Joe figures out that the staff is a sort of astrological guide used in conjunction with nautical navagation to calculate a specific latitude and longitude, placing Totenkopf's stronghold smackdab in the middle of nowhere, not even existing on a map.
Still struggling to get the airships off his tail, Joe plunges his plane into the ocean as Polly fully expects to die; turns out Joe's plane is amphibious, and as the sentry airships hit the water's surface, they each break up into a fiery burst.
