Technology

Hey guys, here's your article for technology next week:

Yeah, yeah, it's a bit long. Consider yourself lucky that I didn't choose the article for space travel (1MA/1). If so, you would've had to read this - http://nymag.com/news/features/space-travel-2013-5/ On second thought, maybe you should read it if you want to learn more about it...

1MA/1, I also mentioned that I'd post the article for your writing summary, here it is: http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2008/08/25/men-or-women-whos-the-better-leader/

Oh, and if anyone in 1MA/1 was so great as to have written down the final exam questions we made on Tuesday for Lifestyle please bring them as it seems your teacher is a little too dumb to have written them down before erasing the board... See you Tuesday.
