There are a growing number of politicians now who are arguing that jail should just be for those who are a danger to society, or for those who have shown that other methods of punishment do not work for them. I pretty much back this camp. There are far more sensible and effective punishments availab...

Creationism is bollocks, however, Intelligent design is not. The problem is that the concept of days was brought in during translation of the bible between different languages. The original text had "a passage of time" and not day, so this could be a few thousand years, which puts evoluti...

Do you feel I am not entitled to be a little angry about a politician who pays his own company £100,000 in expenses and then goes on to belittle the holocaust when he is asked to pay the money back? If this man were not an MP and had performed a similar claim against, say, a charity, he'd have a one...

What a self obsessed little (fat) cunt.

I know I'm being pedantic, but I'm trying to write my PhD thesis and any excuse I get to keep my mind of it I take with all possible vigor. :p One of the premier universities of the world? This is a question, which I believed to be rhetorical. If that's what you call this institution, then I fear fo...

Is that supposed to prove me wrong or right? Neither. You made no point. You stated that if St Andrews is a premier University then you fear for the future of the human race. I merely supplied one bit of evidence to help you increase or decrease your fears. There are a number of points one could in...

Nick Griffin is officially the new Iraqi Information Minister.

You mention several times about the workers being mistreated, if that was the case then yes, a strike is fine. No I don't. Not once in fact. I took no stance either way on the strike, or talk in specifics about it. My point was about what you mean by "shooting themselves in the foot". How...

Where should they be taught though LP? Surely not in the science classroom? Why should we teach something that we know to be untrue (young earth creationism (ID)) in schools? We should certainly discuss these things, but these are for the "religious, moral and philosophical" studies class ...

Sure, but the possibility exists that there's a green monkey outside the living room window at this very moment. Doesn't mean we should write a scientific paper making claims about it.

Oops, i think I misread your last sentence...

Top stuff lads.

Just faces though. I wonder if the findings would be the same for full length photos, or just bodies.

CWU: Oh, here's a foot, let's shoot it... OWW! It was our own! Lot's of people have been saying this recently but I can't really say I understand exactly what they mean. What do you mean by it, assuming that your not just jumping on the "they're shooting themselves in the foot" bandwagon....

since the new pass mark is now 7, and no longer 5 (strive for a 5), we need to come up with a suitable new rhyme for low achievers.

Post some.

First of all, no pun intended. Secondly, I suppose I should explain my statement. Background: I now live in Cupar and get the bus through to St Andrews to work. I get the X24 bus because it's usually the quickest. The reason it is the fastest is because the X24 is the limited stop Glasgow to St Andr...

You don't know the meaning of the word!

You have to pay the membership fee even if you want to use the facilities with a club, so you can take that out of the equation. If you buy 40 gym passes in one go it works out about 75p each which isn't too bad. The other option is to use east sands leisure centre. I pay a one time fee here and get...

Deleted Quite Correct. Could which ever one of you it was (it seems two of you live at the same house) let me know so I can set your username to the post, otherwise I will delete it. Please don't post from a guest account if you have a registered username.* *An acceptable exception would be when as...

I've found a number of instructions for different Universities on how to access Eduroam from a mobile (Nokia E71 in particular) but they all differ from each other and none of them seem to work with the St Andrews setup. Does anyone know how to set up Eduroam on a Nokia E71 Some websites say it's no...

Pics, or it didn't happen.
