A FEW years back on a visit to National Grid the company told me it needed to recruit 75 specialist engineering graduates that year but it feared that across the entire British University system there were only 90 with the required skills whom it expected would graduate, so it expected to have to fill its vacancies with graduates from Eastern Europe. That discussion reminded me how the previous week on a visit to one of the City's big brokers, one of its star traders said that his degree was in nuclear physics, and the desk had two other physicists, three electrical engineers and two chemists. On graduation all of them had headed for the City, not industry, because that was where the money was. And this neatly encapsulates a problem which is ducked in a report by the inventor Sir James ...
DENNIS HOWARD MARKS was born in Kenfig Hill, Bridgend on the August 13, 1945. He is an Oxford University graduate with a degree in nuclear physics and a post graduate qualification in philosophy.
The Uk Government has confirmed it will authorise a new build of nuclear power stations. The average reader does not have a degree in nuclear physics, so I will desist from technical descriptions, but I believe the UK nuclear industry is safe. Carbon-free nuclear power generation is the ideal solution to combat global warming.
The Government has just confirmed it will authorise a new build of nuclear power stations. I fully understand that the average reader does not have a degree in nuclear physics, so I will desist from technical descriptions. The UK nuclear industry is safe.

ITALY It has been a political roller coaster of a week for the Italian prime minister Romano Prodi, who found himself in and out of office as fast as the proverbial fiddler's elbow. It was a crucial senate vote on foreign policy that triggered last week's crisis, which, despite Prodi's return to office yesterday, remains far from over. Philip Willan examines the political machinations of the past few days against the backdrop of a much wider and deeper political malaise that Italy seems unable to shake off. RUSSIA He is married to former president Boris Yeltsin's step- granddaughter, has a degree in nuclear physics and survived Russia's so called "aluminum wars". Now officially Russia's richest man - having GBP102 million more than his chum Roman Abramovich - Oleg Deripaska is a man to ...
John Hemming, in an unex-pected flourish from someone with a degree in nuclear physics, chose to quote the 16th century essayist Francis Bacon when asked to justify his decision to leak confidential council information: 'For indeed, knowledge itself is power.' By refusing to inform the public the council was undermining the ability of the electorate to influence the policy making process, he argued. Democracy, in its purest form, requires that information made available to elected representatives is also given to the public at large.
THEY say the show must go on. And that's exactly what dramatic soprano Dawn Furness is hoping to prove with her next performance. The 33-year-old professional singer wants to breathe new life into the art form and is launching a unique new project in the North East, in a bid to make opera more accessible to the masses.

ASK the average Plymouth person why they like the place so much and they will talk about the city's unique location, between Dartmoor and the sea. The Tamar will rarely even get a mention. The river and valley are seen as obstacles, rather than assets, two features to be overcome not celebrated. Even when talking about the South West's rivers the Tamar rarely gets a name check in the region's top half dozen.

ALTHOUGH Oleg Deripaska was one of the world's richest men, with a fortune estimated at Pounds 18billion, in Britain he was barely known until the summer of 2008. Mention of the word oligarch conjured up the name of another super-rich Russian, Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich.

WHEN the Con-dem coalition was discussing hugely increased tuition fees for university students, they were careful to say that the maximum amount of Pounds 9,000 would be charged by only a very few institutions for the most resource intensive courses. This claim was, of course, an outrageous piece of cleggery, which was surely not believed by anyone with the intelligence to get to university. The truth is now out and not what the Government promised. We had expected courses in nuclear physics delivered in central London to attract the maximum fees. In reality, all of Keele University's courses will cost Pounds 9,000 a year and, despite trying to keep prices down, Staffordshire University can offer degree courses for no less than Pounds 7,490 a year.
