Who better to know the impact of paper, and drive for a paperless office through IT?

Lettuce pray that this is the case.

Tsk. Beeb getting it wrong, saying that guy is their first summer signing, when they've already got Stewart. There will be loads of free agents waiting for clubs to make offers, all holding out for as good a deal as they can get. LND will be no different. Hoping his end of season form is enough to offset the injuries and the managed minutes in that spell. It's a risk. Some players don't get near what they want and end up not taking an offer. Others have to race to get what they can. Ross is in-between: looking for a champ/lower PL deal, but not with the experience there to back it up.

Who knew this innocent game would be a gateway into right wing ideology? If only we'd stopped to ask if the orcs actually had been happily allowed by our government to stay, and we're not raiding parties.

Annual expanded club world cups, with an expanded, investor led, world cup every two years. Then federation tournaments in the gap years. Bringing the world of football to the world. Pesky UEFA and their local issues.

Turns out that's just a romance scam to get engineers over to France to fix things, while locked in captivity.

Yup. Different life paths. circumstances and drives also make a huge difference. That results in loads of talented people with all sorts of backgrounds and academic achievements.

A quite scathing, but not always, review of Nolan's film from a translator of Homer's work. https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v48/n14/emily-wilson/an-uncomplicated-man I think her translation was mentioned as being excellent by the Rest is History podcast.

Thanks for letting me have my grump. I enjoyed that. 🙂 I've found "intelligence" to mean different things over the years, particularly when having to be applied. Focus, wisdom, attitude, willpower, resilience, communication and retention all intertwine too, resulting in a useful skillset. I've known people who were very intelligent, but in a very focused way. They suffered academically and in the workplace. I've known plenty of others with great qualifications who I'd not ask to turn on a light. I'm sure we've all met people falling I to different categories. My point being that intelligence is not enough on it's own, and really has a broader definition. Also, that Big School courses aren't necessarily the best places to not only show intelligence, but to show that you'll be useful in a working environment. I see that 2 of the 3 professions have already been noted, by yourself as not really needing a degree. I'd argue that Doctors really have their own graduate/post graduate/specialty pathway that is distinct from a lot of other courses. Putting myself back in grump mode, apart from unis being based for the elite, the intelligent and/or for key professions, I do agree that the shift in focus is a good step. 🙂
