Pay As You Drive. What is this about? This blog is focused on providing information on Pay As You Drive car insurance in Australia. If you find any information, papers, news articles or websites that we should add, please let us know! Friday, August 28, 2009. The future is electric. BYD is bringing a $40,000 electric car to the US. It promises 250 miles to a charge. If that does not impress you, then consider that GM’s Volt only does 50 miles. Fifty miles? Why do they bother?

John Rutter: Chartered IT Professional

http://john-rutter.blogspot.com/2008/03/chartered-it-professional.html

Technology, Systems Architecture, Software Development. Friday, 28 March 2008. As a professional member of the BCS (British Computer Society) for some years, I decided late last year to apply for Chartered IT Professional status, as I feel that represents my attitudes and role in the IT industry. However, if I had applied earlier in the year, I would have been able to read my name in a BCS feature in the Telegraph last February. http:/ www.bcs.org/server.php? My colleague, Fiona Burgess.

John Rutter: Dubious Acronyms - An I.T. Profanisaurus

http://john-rutter.blogspot.com/2008/07/dubious-acronyms-it-profanisaurus.html

Technology, Systems Architecture, Software Development. Tuesday, 1 July 2008. Dubious Acronyms - An I.T. Profanisaurus. Obviously should have better things on my mind, but whilst in a hotel room recently I started to ponder the creation and propogation of the various acronyms that we are all familiar - or not so familiar - with in IT. You know the sort of thing that gets bandied around in design documents and discussions:. GIGO for Garbage In, Garbage Out. KISS - Keep It Simple, Stupid. OK, none of those...

John Rutter: Flickr Groups and Your Teams

http://john-rutter.blogspot.com/2009/03/flickr-groups-and-your-teams.html

Technology, Systems Architecture, Software Development. Sunday, 15 March 2009. Flickr Groups and Your Teams. As I have rekindled my interest in photography over the past year (since getting a Digital SLR), I've been sharing some of my photos via the Flickr web site ( http:/ www.flickr.com. So if the internal business sites do not get used in the same way, maybe that points to the company culture not being conducive to open comment and shared efforts to reach goals? Better still, take the other, easier, d...

The Great Tap Water Scam (or H2-Oh Dear) | The Bald Spot

https://jamiemilne.wordpress.com/2011/11/13/tap-water

8220;Real Whisky” – some thoughts…. The Great Tap Water Scam (or H2-Oh Dear). November 13, 2011. October 2011, 8pm, Manchester. But I want to draw attention to one specific thing which seems to have been happening at this and other restaurants around the UK, for some time, despite recent changes to legislation. And this is the main reason I will not return to this restaurant or others like it. The Great Tap Water Scam. Tap Having been backed into a corner, the manager seemed ruffled and, picking up our m...

“Real Whisky” – some thoughts… | The Bald Spot

https://jamiemilne.wordpress.com/2010/12/21/real-whisky-some-thoughts

The Great Tap Water Scam (or H2-Oh Dear). 8220;Real Whisky” – some thoughts…. December 21, 2010. I’m on holiday this week, so finally have a wee bit of time to catch up on various forums with my Brand Ambassador hat off and my whisky drinker hat on. Please note these are my opinions, not those of my employer, William Grant and Sons. Many good points have been made in the discussion thread already and the forming opinion seems to be that clearer information on labels is the only way forward. But how m...

New Beginnings amongst Old Friends. Four weeks in…. A new Glenfiddich expression. March 2, 2010. Having just moved from London to Glasgow last week, I decided not to make the return trip to attend Whisky Live London last weekend. Shame, as Glenfiddich launched a new expression at the event – Glenfiddich Rich Oak 14yo. I look forward to trying it soon! Responses to “A new Glenfiddich expression”. Feed for this Entry.

Enterprise Architecture – a pragmatist’s view. A new Glenfiddich expression. New Beginnings amongst Old Friends. February 28, 2010. Apologies in advance for a long post, but this is the start of a big year and some great new adventures. So hopefully you’ll allow me a wee ramble. Our “English Adventure” is over and we have returned – older, and hopefully wiser – to our old home in Glasgow’s West End. I’ve lived for any length of time…well, I’ve lost count. 8220;The boss” has finally become a Consult...
