Description
On today's Satellite Sisters, Julie leads off with an International News Round-Up that starts in outer space and lands in Thailand. We are all very happy to hear that the Philae comet lander has woken up and tweeted a message to earth. Hello! Also in Julie's tour of the world: A flood in Tblisi, Georgia has wild animals roaming the streets, Putin keeps the Pope waiting (again), eating live red ants in Thailand may be good for you but the raw fish might not. You heard it on Satellite Sisters first.
The sisters discuss the comments of embattled Nobel Laureate Tim Hunt. Kudos to the female scientists who tweeted their ridicule with the hashtag #Distractinglysexy. Comedic revenge is always sweet, but Lian asks if some of the other punishment over the top.
Sheila's school year is over so she fills us in on her latest attempt at gift card living, an ill-fated hike that may be her last, a shoe injury that left a mark and some tension at the dry cleaners. In other words, Pluto's moons.
And Liz tips us off that a piece she wrote for Fortune Magazine about unconscious bias in the board room will be posted on the Fortune blog in the next day or two. We'll share it around so you can post your own comments.
