Crazy Floods

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

There’s been crazy flooding in Cumbria, where about a foot of water has fallen, destroying bridges and all sorts. More rain is expected today, though not on the same scale.

In black-hole news, the LHC is back in operation again, 14 months after its initial switch on and subsequent damage. If they manage to avoid another liquid gas leakage disaster, they might be able to do some physicsey discovery things this time.

Lastly can we all have a collective “aww” for Katie Price, who feels picked on in the I’m a a celebrity Jungle, after being selected by the public to do all the trials. Boo-hoo. I can hardly find anyone to feel less sorry for, and really agree with the summary by the fellow contestants – she got what she wished for in this case.

Universe 1 : LHC 0

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

So only a short while after my previous post, the Large Hadron Collidor is now out of action, after it broke and attempted to partially destroy itself. It’s been rather up and down lately with financial institutions dropping like flies and merging all over the place to keep themselves going, followed by various government rescue plans and self-congratulatory praise over dealing with such things. (Seems a bit premature if you ask me.)

Meanwhile, in the alternate, gaming, world, there’s a patch for Spore, that promises to reduce the insanely high frequency of the random attacks in the Space stage, and the release of Star Wars : The Force Unleashed, which promised to be good but on reading reviews sounds like it would probably be glitchy enough to annoy me immensly. I’ll probably wait for Lego Batman, or get Crysis Warhead instead.
