  1. No, I did MPhil in Russian and East European Studies at the University of Glasgow.
  2. By the way, I think that doing MBA is a total nonsense, waste of time. However MBA from the London Business School has a great reputation all over the world. I have a question. That is about the "London School of Business and Management". It seems that this school has some connections with Birckbeck, University of London. Nonetheless this school is a private institution of higher education. Before knowing about this school, I was thinking that the University of Buckingham is the only private higher education institution. But there is another one. So, how many private higher education institutions in GB?
  3. I repeat -- please understand that English is not my first language. I do not understand non-official spellings or words. I did well at Caledonian -- my research in capitalist decadence has progressed. However I still have much to do, such as reading philosophical works like The Spirit of Utopia, etc.
  4. Please listen to the pronunciation here: http://translate.google.co.jp/?hl=ja&tab=wT#ja/en/%E3%81%97%E3%81%92 And normal people (including myself) do not use IPA in their usernames.
  5. In fact, I know nothing about the Spice Girls.
  6. I explain the points I disagree with the World Archery Federation. Archery is a "point sport". By "point sport" I mean the sports like Shooting, in which players try to score the possible highest scores without fighting or disturbing other players. Shooting, an Olympic game, is done in a very fair way. However, Archery is not. Under the current rules of the World Archery Federation, the qualification round is done in a fair way, but the final round is done in the knock-down system! The knock-down system is appropriate for combative sports, like martial arts and ball games, but totally inappropriate and unfair for point sports. If the World Archery Federation do not change the rules which is fair like Shooting, the International Olympic Committee must expel the World Archery Federation.
  7. Neckties are something I hate. I cannot believe the fact that the humankind still wear ties. Ties are completely of no use, except for strangulation. Ties must be banned (bow ties are OK) internationally.
  8. First, the pronunciation of "Sige" is "ʃiɠe". I repeat "Sige" because there was someone calling himself/herself "Sige". "00" does not have any special meaning, but I add 2 numbers to make my name more unique. By the way, I am furious with the World Archery Federation, who have adopted a very inappropriate rules, unline Shooting.
  9. I don't think that kick-in is a too big reward. By introducing kick-in, we can expect more attacking game and more goals, and thereby reducing the number of draws.
  10. Quarter-finals Nigeria 0-2 USA Japan 0-3 Deutschland The 3rd place playoff and final will be played on 08/09/2012. 3rd place playoff Japan vs. Nigeria final Deutschland vs. USA
  11. Michael Owen has joined Stoke City. Stoke City have Rory Delap, who has an incredible ability in throw-in. Stoke City's home stadium pitch width is narrower than other stadium, in order to make Rory Delap's throw-ins more effective. In my opinion this is cheating. All pitches must be 68m*105m. And throw-in should be changed to kick-in, like Futsal. Pele was saying that throw-in should be changed to kick-in, in an interview by a football magazine.
  12. By the way, in Japanese, there is "assimilated sounds" (written "っ"). The Italian speakers have no difficulty to pronounce this sound. However, the English speakers have a hard time. But I do not understand why the English speakers have a hard time in pronouncing it. The Japanese "assimilated sounds" are similar to the sounds like Partick and Nottingham.
  13. And I think that "Scotland" should be "Skotland". "Celtic Football Club" should be "Seltik Futbol Klab".
  14. I think that "Serbia" should be "Srbija", because we should use original spelling as much as possible.
  15. By the way, I was thinking that Dundee's relegation is almost certain. However, Dundee recorded an unexpected win at Hearts. I have some questions. In the SPL, 7 subs are allowed. However, Dundee listed only 6 subs. Was there any special reason? The SFA, SPL, and SFL were talking about the relegation/promotion playoffs between the 2nd team of the SFL1 and the 2nd bottom team of the SPL. Will that be realised in this season? I have been always thinking that Dundee FC should be renamed to Dundee City FC, like 2 rivals in Manchester. However that is highly unlikely....
  16. I changed my mind. I have to concentrate on my study. So I do not attend many games at Ibrox. I will attend Ibrox if we visit Ibrox in cup games. And I will attend Queen's Park and Annan Athletic games, because I have their jerseys. But I do not attend other games at Ibrox.
  17. No, I think that 30 league games are enough. 37 games plus cup games are too much. The FIFA must make the rule that the top-flight of every country must be limited to 16 teams/30 games. Lower divisions might have more games, for money and youth training.
  18. I hope that QoS will trounce Gers at Ibrox. I will attend Ibrox wearing the QoS away jersey.
  19. Hi, I am interested in your location Hamburg. Are you attending the games of HSV or St. Pauli? There are some connections between the supporters of Celtic and St. Pauli. Japan's former international Takahara played for HSV.
  20. I am no fan of the Old Firm (I hate Rangers more, because I am a fierce opponent of Ulster Unionism), but I hope Celtic's success in Europe. The decline of Scotland's ranking in Europe must be stopped, because that means that there will be less chance for us to play in Europe.
  21. Quarter-finals Korea DPR 1-2 USA (aet) Deutschland 4-0 Norge/Noreg Korea DPR's game was a hard-fought one. The result was very unfortunate, but I believe that Korea DPR will triumph in 2019!
  22. My PC does not have Cyrillic buttons. So writing Cyrillic is time-consuming.
  23. By the way, under the current regulation, 32 teams qualify for the CL group stage and 16 teams proceed to the knockdown state. However, this should be changed. 64 teams qualify for the group stage, and only the winners of 16 groups proceed to the knockdown state.
  24. As for the international players of East Asia, there was not many moves. The DPRK's striker Chong Tese (now at Köln in the German 2nd division) did not move, and Köln signed a new striker. Chong Tese may become a bench warmer. I think that he should return to his former team Kawasaki in Japan. Many Japanese players who played in the Olympics were target of transfer rumours, but only 2 was realised. One is Japan's DF Yoshida (Yosida), from VVV Venlo (Nederland top-flight) to Southampton. The other is Ôtu (Otsu), from Borussia Mönchengladbach (German top-flight) to VVV Venlo.
  25. In Rugby Union, there are 10s and 7s, although 10s is not very common and there is no international competition. In Rugby League, there are 9s and 7s. Both are played played officially, although I do not understand why 9s not 10s (the medium between 13 and 7 is 10). Football also should have such competitions. Football should have 11s, 8s and 5s. 8s would be good for player-training in the youth era. 5s would be the counterpart of Rugby 7s. 5s would be very exciting. The rules of Football 5s: One squad number is 11. Time is 1/5 of that of 11s. There is no other difference from 11s.
