Stephen Hawking’s Universe

Professor Stephen Hawking

Into The Universe

I have been watching this series on the Discovery Channel and I am just overwhelmed by this man’s ability to explain such matters as quantum physics in such a simple yet non-condescending way.

The man has a brain the size of a Planet, and mine well pretty large I guess.. (okay its the size of a pea in comparison) but I get it, I truly understand what he is going on about and that just makes it all the more fascinating and worthwhile watching.

Stephen Hawking’s Universe is a new series on the Discovery Channel.

  • How did the universe begin?
  • Where did we come from?
  • When will it end?

Twenty years after writing the earth shattering “A Brief History of Time”, Professor Stephen Hawking offers a fresh outlook on the mysteries of the cosmos.

The most acclaimed and famous scientist of all, Stephen Hawking’ exploration covers almost everything from the mega supernova to the tiniest, most minute sub-atomic world.

These documentaries take the world’s most renowned scientific mind and set it free, watch Stephen Hawking take on and explain some of the greatest mysteries of the universe – How did the universe begin and how will it end? Are we alone out there? What are the chances of alien life? And what is the real possibility of time travel?

Professor Stephen Hawking gives us the ultimate guide to the universe, a wonderfully narrated and visual experience using all the latest and most advanced types of computer animation. But this is based on real, true science, spanning the whole of time and space.

A TOXIC WASTE – The Gulf Of mexico Oil Spill

The Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill

The long lasting effects of an oil spill do so much more damage than the initial devastation we see on the news and the Internet.

The current BP oil spill currently occurring in the Gulf of Mexico will eclipse the Exxon Valdez oil spill that took place during 1989 unless remedial action is successful. Let us hope for everyone’s sake that they can stop this soon.

The leak British Petroleum is facing is proving difficult to plug and at the current rate of around five thousand barrels that’s two hundred thousand gallons being released into the ocean each day according to government and BP estimates.

My Woolly Socks!

Good on you Bonnie Prince Charlie!

Prince Charles “The Prince of Wales” is trying to push a comeback for wool in the fashion industry and put an end to the steadily reducing demand and falling prices for the wool industry.

I Absolutely agree wholeheartedly, I do miss my handknitted woollens.

I was a fortunate child having a Grandparent who was a dab hand with the knitting needles. I had a great collection of Arran Jumpers, Lambswool and Cashmere sweaters and the warmest and most comfortable woolly socks in the world.

Plus it’s Eco-Friendly ‘A darn site easier to repair than throw away” unlike the mass produced ones today.

I do miss my woolly socks.

Skechers – Quest for the truth.

Skechers Shapers

Seeking the truth about the much hyped Sketcher Shapers.

After searching for stockists I eventually tried on the much raved about Skechers.  I really get the feeling I am missing what all the fuss is about. While I fully understanding the pshycology behind the extra range of movement through the foot when walking, which of course affects and works all the muscles in the body to do with stance and posture, thus stretching out and lengthening the Gastronemius and Soleus muscles (calves) to name but two, which by the way is my main area of interest.  I am tired of hanging off the edge of steps and stairs to lengthen out my shortened muscles!

iPad what a joke just like the iPod

iPad as big a joke as iPod

The war of words between Mac/Apple fans and Windows/Microsoft boot boys was bad when the Mac had only a tiny market share. Now that Apple has moved firmly into the mainstream with products like the iPod, iPhone and iTunes the army of Apple haters has grown hysterical in its ranting.Maybe these people are incensed that, far from limping to the nearest dark corner and dying, Apple recovered and started out-performing Microsoft products following the return of messianic leader Steve Jobs in 1997. Yeah, Steve ‘Loser’ Jobs – the weird hippy guy with the beard and sandals. Even Apple sacked that freak!
