22 May 2013 in Conversations, Media, Space

Of all the things I thought I’d be talking about last week, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield wasn’t one of them.

Weekly Wrap 152: LulzSec, Optus, radio and thinking stuff

05 May 2013 in Weekly Wrap

My week Monday 29 April to Sunday 5 May 2013 began gently, with planning and washing and other chores, and just two articles to write. But by Wednesday night I’d also done four radio spots, washed an infinite number of towels, and eaten most of a sheep. Or so it felt. Then Thursday was full [...]
