		<description><![CDATA[Back in May I had a little rant about Sky One ruining Stargate Universe with an annoying banner, advertising a bit of celebrity gossip that was anything but important enough to justify what they did. A banner that was irritatingly large and stupidly bright &#8211; especially considering it was set against the dark backdrop of <a href='http://misc.vinceh.com/2011/11/sky-one-shows-contempt-for-their-viewers-again/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That&#8217;s the claim of findmypast.co.uk, one of a number of websites designed to help those interested in the subject of genealogy with the task of investigating their family tree. They seem to think it is perfectly acceptable to send out a marketing email &#8211; very specifically, advertising new, lower subscription rates &#8211; and claim that <a href='http://misc.vinceh.com/2011/08/when-is-spam-not-spam/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I don&#8217;t watch it on TV, I don&#8217;t follow any particular team, and if you asked me to name a team&#8217;s worth of players I&#8217;d struggle, though I could probably get there in the end.

		<description><![CDATA[In case anyone reading this hasn&#8217;t noticed, there are a number of Christians who seem to believe the world will end this year, with two very specific dates given: 21st May, 2011, and 21st October, 2011. These dates have been misunderstood by others, with many only being aware of the first of them (tomorrow as <a href='http://misc.vinceh.com/2011/05/the-end-is-nigh/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
