Doctor Who Cliffhanger Teases Endless Possibilities

"If the cliffhanger of Saturday's episode of Doctor Who is legitimate and not some clever, alternative universe, time-traveling trick, Russell T. Davies and his Who crew pulled off one of the truly great swerves in television history."

We CAN be serious: Cardiff University disputes Hawk-eye's Wimbledon line call

"New research from Cardiff School of Social Sciences draws on the claims made by Hawk-Eye Innovations’ on its website about the disputed line call. The machine reported that the ball nicked the baseline by 1mm. However, Hawk-Eye Innovations also report that the average error of the machine is 3.6mm. If the Cardiff analysis is correct, the errors can be even larger than 3.6mm on some occasions. The International Tennis Federation, which tests the machines for use, would accept that Hawk-Eye had passed its test if it called the ball in by 1mm while the true position was out by 5mm."

Subversion For Writers

"This article was inspired by a question asked by a user on the WriteRoom Forum. This person was asking about facilities for working with multiple drafts of a work in progress; a process he was currently doing manually by saving his work with a new timestamp in the files’ names every time. What a lot of work! Clearly a job for a lazy geek to step in and show how it can be done easily!"
