		<title>United Airlines says no</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The sheer ridiculousness of a journey this week from North Carolina to Manchester seemed worthy of a quick blog. Work commitments required me to spend a couple of days in Washington DC before heading down to Raleigh, North Carolina. Despite having my wallet stolen on the first night of the trip, the week was a<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/11/travelhell/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>Surviving the zombie apocalypse &#8211; 2.8 Hours Later</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night Leeds was the post-apocalyptic setting for 2.8 Hours Later, a &#8216;zombie reality game&#8217;. It was basically a terrifying version of orienteering, with a storyline, gruesome props and actors providing the allies and enemies. The result was an adrenaline fueled experience that genuinely felt like fighting for your life in a horror film.

		<title>Is it now possible to make the Kessel run in less than twelve parsecs?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scientists at CERN are claiming that they have measured subatomic particles called neutrinos travelling faster than the speed of light. If (and it is a staggeringly big if) it turns out to be a correct measurement what we know as the laws of the universe would fundamentally change. The trouble with today&#8217;s revelation is that<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/09/speedoflight/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>M83 &#8211; Hurry Up, We&#8217;re Dreaming</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has been a while since the upcoming release of an album has made me giddy with excitement. But M83&#8242;s Anthony Gonzalez has been true to his musical style and given us a tantalisingly long build up to his latest release. It&#8217;s finally here, the double album Hurry Up, We&#8217;re Dreaming. It is 3 years<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/09/m83/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>My new camera &#8211; Panasonic Lumix GF2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Panasonic Lumix DMC GF2 is is the world&#8217;s smallest interchangeable-lens digital camera. It produces some stunning pictures thanks to the superb lenses and a 12.1 megapixel sensor. It also records full-HD 1920 x 1080 movies in AVCHD format with high sound quality. Sounds good doesn&#8217;t it? I&#8217;ve no idea what any of it really<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/07/lumix/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>The Great Drag Race</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Saturday I got dressed up in full drag. So a normal weekend there then. But I also took part in a 10km run called &#8216;The Great Drag Race&#8216;. It is an annual fundraising event that aims to raise money for and awareness of prostate cancer. The race is actually 10.2km because 10,200 men are<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/06/greatdragrace/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>Fukushima incident should not put us off nuclear power</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After the devastation of the tsunami in Japan on Friday, it was a particularly cruel blow that the nuclear reactors in the plant at Fukushima are suffering a partial core melt-down. But it is worth noting that while thousands have died as a result of the tsunami, the media is obsessively covering the situation in<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2011/03/nuclearpower/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

I was rather surprisingly contacted to attend. This was the first press engagement I have been invited to as a result of writing this blog.

		<title>Now is a great time to check out Jupiter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On 20th September Jupiter was the closest it has been to Earth since 1951. For the next 3 months it is still very close and one of the brightest stars in the sky. At its closest it was a mere 368 million miles away &#8211; when it reached opposition (the term for when the sun,<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2010/11/jupiter/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>

		<title>Will interest rate rises pile on the strife?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Bank of England yesterday announced that interest rates would remain at their record low level of 0.5% for the 20th month in a row. This decision has been welcomed by many economists, not to mention people with mortgages to pay. Many homeowners have redundancy concerns as a result of Government cuts and the effects<a href="http://www.larkhilltalk.com/2010/11/interestrates/"> <br /><br /> (Read More...)</a>]]></description>
