    Astrology to solve the NHS crisis

    And he sits on the Health Select Committee and the Committee for Science and Technology. It's not just UKIP who are utterly bonkers. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2966804/Tory-MP-claims-ASTROLOGY-solve-health-service-crisis-taking-pressure-doctors-nurses.html

    Critical Incident Debriefing

    I'm interested in the debriefing and counselling opportunities available to drivers after a critical traumatic incident (such as a one-under). What happens to the driver after the event occurs? Do they have a mandatory interview with their manager? Is counselling available 24/7 for the...

    Commuting to Waterloo

    In need of some relatively urgent help here. I'm working at St Thomas' Hospital near Waterloo from next Monday for two weeks. I'll have to commute in by train as it's too expensive to drive. I'll probably need two weekly season tickets, but when I try and search for these on the SWT website...

    Hatfield - Acton Depot

    I need to get from Hatfield to Acton LUL depot on the 25th before 0900 (ideally arriving at around 0830). What's the best/cheapest route at that time? I'd prefer not to drive at all, but if need be I can drive to work in Plaistow and trek in from there, but that'll take ages. May be cheaper...

It specifically mentioned Kings Cross and Paddington as filming locations. Anyone...

    Websites to be forced to name trolls

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-18404621 An interesting development. Ken Clarke's quote is particularly interesting as it appears to provide a defence to libel to website owners as long as they give the names and IPs of the users who posted it.

    Olympics more important than week old baby?

    I was outraged reading this in the Metro today. Apparently this woman considers the Olympics to be more important than their new baby. I'd also suggest that an event the size of the Olympics isn't the best place for a newborn. Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk

    Benefit Caps: Good, bad or indifferent?

    The Government are proposing to cap benefits at £26,000 (untaxed). This is broadly equivalent to someone paying tax earning over £30,000. However, it is claimed that this will disproportionately affect some people, and force others into poverty. Discuss!

    Flash banner problem

    (Not really sure where to put this, General discussion seemed best) If I click on the Community link, the dropdown menu is obsucured if there is a flash advert showing below: I think someone needs to check the z-index for both elements in the CSS.
