And here's another in the Johnson clan.

Brexit, for once some facts.

Each of the references directs you to a paper. This is what universities do , its not kindergarten.
Nothing that couple of coats of magnolia wouldn't sort out.

for a rough estimate, carbon footprint of a turbine is the weight of the (pylon + nacelle) * 1.85
For example, the popular GE 1.5MW model, the whole thing weighs 164 tonnes, so its carbon footprint is about 304 tonnes of CO2.
Why would anyone work for johnson? As part of promoting his agenda, as she did? Money is about the least tainted answer.
I remember you saying this months ago. I didn’t agree with back then. I do now. He’s allowed himself to be purchased.
Papers make my brain hurt. I’ll look later. I hope I don’t need to come back having found the links lead to more *******.
she said on the clip that she did not stay and went home though.
Her job is to gloss over anything that may be seen as proof of Johnson's laziness or incompetence or illegal and she is clearly not very good at it. Some people may say Johnson threw her under a bus, I reckon Johnson is right to let her go.
Just look at his face to see how contrite he was when he told the HoC at yesterday's PMQ that he was 'furious' when he saw the clip.

I took the “I went home” comment to be a joke.
She thinks she’s a proper little clever clogs madam. She isn’t now. She’s soiled herself on national television.
there was actually no story about her taking part in any party at No 10 last Christmas.
www.solartricity.ie Now because my house is tall and I am not great on heights, I went and got a grant aided full blown professional installation with 11 panels 4 south facing and 7 West facing. This gives a longer lower power yield per day which suits better. My install cost 7000euro The guys about 5 of them were fully done and dusted and away in a little over 4 hours. One was an electrician who had trained in my college so he knew the staff and his stuff ,the rest were roofers. They could have put up more panels but the grant guidelines are strict and if panels are at the edges the wind can lift them . Anyway they survived Barra
Afraid I, ve got some humble pie to eat for quite a few meals.
Thought Boris was almost OK, had right sentiments but going about it wrong...
I was wrong. He, s lying, conniving and sneaky.. He really shouldn't be pm. Watched him over last few days, he's an embarrassment. He, s ruining any covid messages we may have had and he, s destroying our image abroad.
Don't agree about Witty tho. Boris knows full well whenever he, s put infront of screens he, d give the pessimistic side to justify our ineffective Plan B.
If we get through Covid less damaged than we might have I now suspect its inspite of our Government... Not because of it..
We don't just need a new Government, we need a change of types going into Politics. Where are the decent ones? Afraid I can't see any..

The problem is that for decades now we've thrust day to day politics into the public eye with overexposure.
That's let all the public know what a shabby and dishonest business it is, with the consequence that most decent people don't want anything to do with it.
Those we do have standing for election have a minority who really do want to do good but soon get corrupted by the system. The rest are on the make from the outset.

I am not going to discuss personalities, but I think the problem is that Journalists, PR consultants and TV stars are getting excess adulation. Politics is a slow boring business where details matter, and long hard graft and one would be better off with National Teachers, Lawyers. even Academics. Unfortunately in Ireland we have a fair number of Publicans and Auctioneers . We had one very well case of the most senior RTE political reporter , who decided to put his hat in the ring, and sought election. He was duly elected but basically could not hack it. Of course he couldn't get his old job back in RTE , but is redeeming himself as their Science Correspondent
Politics is "Showbiz for ugly people", but in this new age of immense media driven persuasion, sadly there is increasing crossover between those worlds.
Danieldl - is there any mention of the virtues of Roman concrete for the construction of wind power mast foundations, on your Masters course? It exudes less CO2 and can last for millennia - the Colosseum is still standing, and when used for port construction, it's gets stronger over time (for a time) with seawater. Stick that in your Masters and smoke it! (We'll need the ash from ash trees and the like, volcanic ash no longer required).
Roman seawater concrete holds the secret to cutting carbon emissions
Scientists analyzed samples from a Roman breakwater submerged in the Bay of Naples for over two millennia, revealing the secrets of crystal chemistry that allow Roman seawater concrete to resist chemical attack and wave action for centuries. Materials and processes for manufacturing...

I'm genuinely interested in reading about what's on your Masters curriculum. The reason why I asked whether it was popular, is because until relatively recently, taking such courses wouldn't necessarily improve one's job prospects. Courses which don't deliver improved likelihood of career progression, tend to die out.
Well I am out of it nearly 8 years now., So I cannot tell you of current enrollment etc. We modelled ours on , and indeed got plenty of support from Loughborough University, which in those pre Brexit days I am happy to acknowledge. .I organized that they would supply External Examiners for the first cycle while we got our feet wet? . But of course we needed to localise it and since we had different faculty .. particularly a guy big into wave and ocean energy , included that. We even procured well scrounged a wavetank from QUB Well we were unique in Ireland at the time, and still have a a first comers advantage, even against the big boys.
But when we set it up, it was intended that the graduates would not be the employees, but the employers or consultants ,so all were already civil or electrical or biological sciences types , eligible to be chartered engineers or equivalent.
The key problem with any of the Renewable Energy systems is not the actual harvesting of the energy, although that is extremely important, it is the economics and technology of energy storage.
Molten salt batteries?
Salt breakthrough could halve the cost of storing solar energy
Danish nuclear startup Seaborg accidentally developed a solution for storing solar energy, and its sister company Hyme is going to sell it.
