Please don’t be turned off by the title. This is not the argument that we have come to expect from the Christian church. This is the most sensible thing i have ever read regarding homosexuality and Christianity.

Next time i hear anybody saying that being gay is an abomination, or against God’s will, or forbidden in [...]

This afternoon i think i will make one of these:
It is an illusion with the effect that you think the head is moving around to look at you.
You can get the template with instructions (pdf), print it out and make your own! How cool! :D

I learned today that UK phone number area codes are more than just random numbers. They are *actually* coded areas. This works for most 5-digit area codes beginning 01 … the next number (or often two numbers) contain a reference to the area. Here are some that i know:
01962 - 96 = WN for Winchester
01622 [...]

This morning i went to the Winchester Action on Climate Change meeting. It was really very good; well-attended, with exciting ideas and news about greening projects in Winchester. One idea which particularly intrigued [...]

Not doing anything special, just taking some time to relax. I will try to avoid Winchester city centre if at all possible whilst people are re-enacting the murder of Jesus. That sounds rather gruesome to [...]

I am home alone tonight; my partner is out bowling or doing something equally as exciting! :) I have had a productive evening: phoned a few people, done some chores, had a tin of ratatouille for dinner (which i got specially for home-alone nights, knowing how bad i am at cooking for myself!).
The other night [...]

There are estimated to be 1022 stars in the entire universe. That’s ten thousand billion billion. That number of grains of sand would cover the entire United Kingdom to a depth of several centimetres. Yet a single cube of sugar contains more atoms than stars in the universe!
Science is fascinating! :)
I read it this morning [...]
