Many times exam questions tend to be so unrelated to course work that studying is really useless. Becoming a success is a matter of hard work; luck has little or nothing to do with it. Getting a good job depends mainly on being in the right place at the...

Settling Uncertainty? Reflections on the Scottish Independence Referendum

...course only help to further loosen the already fraught ties that bind the UK and which also plays directly into the hands of the SNP. Gordon Brown has in recent months repeatedly attacked the Conservatives for the ‘damage’ he says that this is doing to the continuation of the Union. That there was a No vote in the 2014 Indy Ref almost seems lost in the mists of...

The geology of Northern Ireland

...course, Northern Ireland. The granites of South Armagh and the marine sediments of Down to Armagh were all part of this great collision. Remnants of these mountains are found in the present day Sperrin Mountains of Tyrone.

African and Caribbean coaches in international football: is there enough progress?

The cost of elite licensing remains a significant barrier; for example, the NFF/CAF A-License costs between $2,000 and $3,000, which is a prohibitive sum for many local candidates without...

Caroline Underwood - Earth in Vision

...open a dialogue and that programme was certainly used a lot in schools and universities, as do most of our shows. And in the wildlife area I think it was a series, we ended up doing three different programmes, each one building on the previous one.

The moderate authoritarians: Labour's soft middle gets tough

...opened the door to a serious challenge. A horde of new joiners attracted by Corbyn’s progressive anti-austerity message are now threatening to dramatically recalibrate the trajectory of the party away from its rightward bent of the past two decades. Labour’s moderates have responded forcefully, and with tellingly scant regard to democratic principles. At first they...
