A small drop of ink: Making a deal with cancer
http://asmalldrop.blogspot.com/2011/01/making-deal-with-cancer.html
A small drop of ink. But words are things, and a small drop of ink/ Falling like dew upon a thought produces/ that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think - Lord Byron. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Making a deal with cancer. Let's just say at the outset that cancer is an indiscriminative bitch. For every Michael Douglas. There's a Patrick Swayze, or Farah Fawcett, or Paul Newman or Lisa Woody. See what I mean, fucking bitch, that cancer. It even goes after kids. My friend's story will , hopefully, b...

His size helps when it comes to his passion for sport - cricket mainly (can you believe I bred someone who likes cricket? Mum has had a few health scares lately but she is on th...

A small drop of ink: Older and wiser
http://asmalldrop.blogspot.com/2011/07/older-and-wiser.html
A small drop of ink. But words are things, and a small drop of ink/ Falling like dew upon a thought produces/ that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think - Lord Byron. Sunday, July 10, 2011. One of the positive things about growing older (and let's face it, there are many negatives) is the ability to roll with the punches when life throws its little curve balls at you. I was reminded of this last night when we were out to celebrate a friend's birthday. The night did not start well, as we arrived ...

A small drop of ink: A little bit "woo"

A small drop of ink. But words are things, and a small drop of ink/ Falling like dew upon a thought produces/ that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think - Lord Byron. Saturday, August 6, 2011. A little bit "woo". Those of you who know me will know that I am about as "crunchy" as yogurt . Something happened this week, though that made me question me steadfasted cynicism about all things "woo". The chiropractor pronounce my adrenaline glands "rooted" (well, he didn't use those exact words, but tha...

We discuss NASA's current endeavours on Mars, the search for life in other parts of the Solar System and outside it, and how data from Mars' climate can help us better understand our own climate on Earth. We also touch on science education, women in science, some of the other leaders in space science, and future NASA projects. You can follow Adrian on twitter at his SETI Talks handle:.

Monday, November 25, 2013. The End of Podcasting. Recently, the American media strategist and commentator Mark Ramsey wrote a very interesting article on this topic. Although his piece was somewhat less doomsdayish than my title would suggest. He points out a series of current shortcomings that are near-universal in the podcasting community. As hard as some of his argument may sound, Ramsey can't be faulted for his reasoning and approach. Let me summarise:. Podcasts generally are too long. Is still opera...

Friday, January 24, 2014. Maybe it's a New Jersey thing, but it's wonderful to hear so much irony and self-deprecating humour in the American vernacular - PBR goes a long way towards dispelling the myth that Americans 'don't get' irony.
