		<title>Off to Warwick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I’m off to Warwick in October to read Physics; and I’m thrilled. Pretty much everything is sorted out, and by that I mean that there’s still a large amount of paperwork that I’ve got to force my way through before I’m entirely ready.]]></description>

		<title>A holiday (working title)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just over a fortnight ago I set off aboard the Queen Victoria to cruise around the Mediterranean with the majority of my newly extended family. And without boring you all with some very delayed and boring travelogue, I’m going to write a bit about the places I visited.&#160; Especially as I only visited each port [...]]]></description>

		<title>These things need titles?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s certainly been a while since I posted anything that cannot be described as depressingly numerical, dull, or entirely pointless. I could talk about Lola Rennt on blu-ray,but when I did get to enjoy it in full HD the impact was noticeably lessened by how well Matt’s plasma TV could upscale a DVD. I can [...]]]></description>

Also, the Asia concert was beyond awesome; and if they&#8217;re playing near you; then you should certainly go and see them- Steve Howe is the most masterful guitarist that I have ever seen.]]></description>

		<title>Some horrifically overdue updates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been several months now since I last said anything noteworthy (bar expressing my disgust at the science funding crisis) and it&#8217;s probably time that I wrote something. Thanks to AppleCare my ageing iBook miraculously changed into a macbook before Christmas by virtue of some faulty bluetooth chip, my mac mini has since transformed into [...]]]></description>

		<title>A massive blow to Science in the UK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The STFC have recently massively slashed the budget for Physics in the UK by £80million. It means amongst many other things that the UK will drop out of exceedingly important international research, and many British research programmes will come under threat. It will also make it exceedingly difficult to take up further studies of Physics [...]]]></description>

		<title>My little Christmas present from Apple</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, my iBook&#8217;s bluetooth module and Sleep LED assembly decided that actually functioning was not worth the endeavour- so I took it along to the Apple store in Southampton. Unfortunately, the problems with my iBook were irreparable and as it was under Apple care; they gave me a new MacBook. Moral of the story: get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sony Ericsson k800i updates- a whole pile of fun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The k800i is, all-in-all a very nice phone. One of it&#8217;s main fairly innovate features is that it can run firmware updates from the menu and download them over the air. This would be fairly useful as a first diagnostic against a software problem with the phone as the occasional 20mb download wouldn&#8217;t really hurt [...]]]></description>

Very wrong in fact, with the &#8220;Welcome to Leopard&#8221; wizard appearing on logon and refusing to let me log in. One full time machine restore later and my mac is working again, unfortunately it&#8217;s now refusing to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Joss Whedon- back on the telly</title>

From what&#8217;s been said it looks like it should be brilliant- but it&#8217;s being made by Americas FOX network. Hopefully it should only be a matter of time before a British channel expresses interest (although I&#8217;m still waiting for [...]]]></description>

		<title>The BBC- a chance to revolutionise internet television or to pay Microsoft</title>

This is in part due to their settling on Windows Media Video with DRM as the apt way for them to deliver this; it seems all the stranger that they&#8217;ve chosen this as the [...]]]></description>
