The articles, the opinions, the stories, the poems and the cartoons Ovi magazine covers for Thursday December 1st, 2022 – World AIDS Day

Every year, on 1 December, the world commemorates World AIDS Day. People around the world unite to show support for people living with and affected by HIV and to remember those who lost their lives to AIDS. The inequalities which perpetuate the AIDS pandemic are not inevitable; we can tackle them. This World AIDS Day, UNAIDS is urging each of us to address the inequalities which are holding back progress in ending AIDS. The “Equalize” slogan is a call to action. It is a prompt for all of us to work for the proven practical actions needed to address inequalities and help end AIDS.


Just Suppose… by Jan Sand

When I was a kid, back in the early 1930’s, there wasn’t a hell of a lot of well conceived good science fiction around. Jules Verne and Edgar Rice Burroughs took a stab at it but the only writer that impressed me was H.G.Wells with his time machine and “War Of The Worlds”. That still reads pretty well but we now know enough about the planet Mars to understand it contains no threats.

Nevertheless the idea that an alien invasion from elsewhere in the universe has been explored thoroughly in later fiction is obvious. The better attempts such as Heinlein’s “The Puppet Masters”, John Campbell’s “Who Goes There?”, and Jack Finney’s “The Body Snatchers” involved alien life forms with biological qualities that avoided open conflict such as inter-species warfare.

If an alien civilization from outside the solar system took a fancy to our planet Earth, I have often wondered just how it might go about taking possession of the planet without the presumed brutal conflict with the current human controlling species. No doubt, there would be methods well developed in the long history of its interstellar civilization that has become standardized.
