	State of Decay by Alan Stevens and Fiona Moore
		"State of Decay" is a Gothic story which was allegedly inspired by the Hammer Horror films.This is unfortunate as, like many Hammer Horror films, it has a nice medieval design, but alsohas naff effects, poor characterisation and a nonsensical plot, which conspire to make it one ofthe poorer offerings of the season.
		The themes of change and decay also continue to be developed, albeit ina less direct way: the visible parallels between the vampire lords and theTime Lords probably result less from the present circumstances thanfrom the fact that the story was originally written for Season Fifteen,which contained a lot of Time-Lord-like figures.
		"State of Decay" is therefore arguably the least polished story of Season 18, and one which, in aworld where the team had been given more of a choice, would probably never have beencommissioned.

	Physics News Update Number 96 - FIRST OBSERVATION OF BOUND-STATE BETA DECAY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Although neutral Dy is stable, in a fully stripped form it decays via bound-state beta decay into highly ionized (+66) holmium (atomic number 67) with a halflife of 47 (+5,-4) days, a value derived from the measured storage time of the holmium daughter ions.
		The GSI scientists report that bound-state beta decay is of minor importance for neutral atoms but might be the predominant decay mode for highly ionized atoms, such as those inside stellar plasmas during nucleosynthesis.
		Studies of these decays (which are accompanied by a essentially monoenergetic antineutrino) may lead to more precise bounds on the mass of the antineutrino.

		The rate of juvenile dental decay and Peter Forster's recommendation are the motivators for the State Government's ruling that local councils must start to add fluoride to their water supplies.
		This is a logical and necessary step: most of the rest of the nation has fluoride in its water and, unlike Queensland's, other states' teeth aren't rotting out of their heads.
		If the State Government was to tax the foods and drinks that are making us sick and use the collected tax to subsidise healthy, whole foods to make them more affordable, the overall health gain and health system savings would be enormous.

	Target Practice #066: Doctor Who and the State Of Decay (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		For a long time, I didn’t like State of Decay…it feels rather out of place in the mostly-serious season 18 (mainly because it wasn’t planned for that season), and the plot isn’t exactly new or original…but upon reviewing it for this article I found it’s really pretty good.
		Dicks is basically at the top of is scriptwriting form, and the interaction between Tom and Lalla is delightful; the material in the cell is surely top 25 material, culminating in the touching “You’re wonderful” dialogue.
		It’s still a pretty straightforward book, but it’s the little touches that count, and this one calls back memories of the early Terrance Targets, when there was more time for setting the scenes and engrossing the reader in the feel of the story.
