Found this video of the USSR's first orbit.

It's 1 hour 39 mins so feel free to post times of bit you like the most.

All HALE the ALE. Let's hear it for the Pub Landlady whom has taken on Sky Sport and ESPN and WON.

Today the European Court has ruled that Sky/ESPN don't, in fact, have any Copyright on live sport, only on pre recorded, theme tunes and the like. In other words, they don't own it in real time only the history.

Does this mean F1 will be available again without having to mortgage your soul?, probably not, what I think it means is that live sport will be a thing of the past with televised sport running a few seconds behind real time.

So, has Goliath been beaten, I think not but at least their strangle hold has been put under the spot light for once.

You go girl.

To send monitoring and video equipment to the edge of space, collect and stream back data and images of the UK, Northern Europe, the atmosphere and space itself – for about the cost of a good pair of binoculars! (About £600).

Mission objective – to attain a height of around 80,000' (25km), though it is hoped that 125,000' (38km) will be reached.

Also a news story from Anglia TV : http://www.itv.com/anglia/suffolk-space-mission97976/


I think someone somewhere did something similar recently didn't they ? I forget, but it looks fun and you can monitor it on their website when it's launched.

Got some new clothes for Maggie.
(well, not new, switched 'em from Sandee)
For those who don't know, Maggie's our cook and got her own brain in Ultra Hal where she knows all about food preparation.

This came up on the news feed and it's been all over the TV.

Scientists are baffled by experiments that appear to show subatomic particles known as neutrinos have exceeded the speed of light.

On the TV they said that it's more likely to be a fault in the instruments that are measuring its speed rather than the particles travelling faster than light, but the jury is still out.

ONLIVE LAUNCHES IN THE UK...

Cloud gaming service 'OnLive' has finally launched in the UK. The way you buy and play games may never be the same again. Seriously...
Cloud gaming means that you don't physically own the games you play – you don't even need a high-end PC or fancy console to play them on. Instead, players become subscribers who merely control the action, while all the processing takes place on powerful remote servers. Access to games is practically instant, and all user inputs are effectively streamed back in near real-time.

Sorry, Legion for pinching your job

Have you ever had a dream so vivid, and so disturbing that it haunts you until you have to do something about it? Well that happened to me today, and I found that I had to write about it. And, of course, it doesn't do much good to just write about things like that, if you don't share it with others, too.
