Having branched out in various ways providing all kinds of consumer goods and financial services, Tesco now also sells concert tickets for all sorts of events, including concerts. Popular events are held at some of the UK’s finest racecourses, including Epsom Downs, Newmarket, and Haydock Park. Today’s racecourses are not just for showcasing some of the most important events in the racing calendar; they now offer top class hospitality in some of the finest facilities in the country set in beautiful surroundings.

This year Tesco have a packed calendar of ‘Music at the Races’ events. Open air concerts featuring some of the world’s best-known bands, including the Scissor Sisters, and The Wanted, and great singers including Tom Jones, and Alexandra Burke, take place right through the summer. The live concerts generally start within half an hour of the end of the last race, so that the excitement of a day’s racing carries on right through the concert itself, making for a fantastic atmosphere for both racegoers and music lovers alike.

Tickets to these events start at just £12 and, for those with Tesco Club cards, there are double Clubcard points to be earned with every ticket purchased, a really great extra incentive. Once purchased, tickets can be tracked online and buyers will be kept up to date via email. Delivery is free, so there will be no extra costs, and the customer support service line is available every day, including Sunday. Customers buying concert tickets through Tesco can be assured of a great service.

For anyone looking for tickets to great events this summer, Tesco Entertainment will be hard to beat.

Everything is as easy as ABC. The competition is open to students aged 13 to 18 from around the world, they can work on their own or in a team of two or three. All the submissions are due by 4 April 2011. I’m really glad that Google has presented such an opportunity for young scientists. Thanks to Google everybody concerned can work in the same way as professional scientists.

Finalists (3 of them) will be announced on 11 July 2011. To tell the truth, I can’t wait to see what junior scientists from around the world will present.

In a nod to the original ‘Aliens’ film, Deadly emerges right from the stomach of a surprised astronaut and leaves the rest of the company with their mouths slightly agape. I am ready to bet they are even afraid of to think what will happen next.

If you are a huge Deadly fan, follow its story on Facebook and Twitter. Also there is a juicy chance to enter a competition to win an all expenses paid 10k holiday to LA. Don’t miss!
