    Based on the bickering between a couple of their more viral supporters, I'd suggest the ladies were the ones making Robbie Lyle a ****ton of ad revenue...

    Today, the BBC are running a story about women in motor sport (well, cars). Pride of place is given to this picture of.............Jamie Chadwick.

    Can't help but wonder whether the news JT was returning to Villa was the shame that did for him...... <yikes>

    Or to put it another way, RIP to a chairman who actually deserved the sort of criticism the Levy Out mob like to use...

    so we made cakes with the kids and one ... just 8 years old...decorated his like this...


    20181003_141358.jpg

    so at this point we have to carefully talk to the child about why they have drawn this...huge worries about child protection issues are abound amoungst at the staff and so I asked him about his design. I decided to ask what gave him the idea for his design so (with a real feeling at worry for the kid) I wandered over. As I sat down he says...
    "sir...do you like my elephant???"

    Indeed. My first thought was that his parents are in a Cthulhu cult.

    Annoyingly, Altavista got absorbed bought Yahoo fifteen years ago - then shut down permanently five years ago.

    Yahoo bought them because they were (at that time) the
    superior search engine. But then Google appeared.

    I am surprised that Bing has not even come close to
    Google in terms of performance (God knows Billy boy had
    enough money to throw at the problem) .

    Oh well, at least the problem is not fully solved yet.
    Somewhere there may be a 'boy in a bedroom with a
    laptop' type who has the PageRank killer forming unseen ...

    Google had already overtaken Yahoo by 2003, so their purchase of Altavista was less to do with keeping Google at bay and more to do with trying not to get swamped into oblivion.

    One thing I learned when I was at uni is that the search results of Google and Altavista weren't 1:1, so there were often useful pages that Altavista came up with that weren't on the first page of Google search results (because who actually checks the second or third page of results?) which gave me a slight advantage as I didn't look like such a lazy bastard when listing my sources compared to everyone else. I reckon that was good for a few bonus marks on every single essay.
