Labour’s election slogan has been “Google Bombed” by what looks like an anti-Labour website: www.futurefairforall.org. Good SEO effort.

No, jackass. It has to be more obtuse and meaningless.

News channels and outlets should take note that in this post I have condensed the same information that took them hundreds of hours of air time to convey: It’s snowing quite heavily.

Originally a Lowland Scots diminutive of JAMES. Since the late 19th century it has also been used as a feminine form.

JAMES
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Biblical

English form of the Late Latin name Iacomus which was derived from Ιακωβος (Iakobos), the New Testament Greek form of the Hebrew name Ya’aqov (JACOB). This was the name of two apostles in the New Testament. The first was Saint James the Greater, the apostle John’s brother, who was beheaded under Herod Agrippa in the Book of Acts. The second was James the Lesser, son of Alphaeus. Another James (known as James the Just) is also mentioned in the Bible as being the brother of Jesus.

Since the 13th century this form of the name has been used in England, though it became more common in Scotland, where it was borne by several kings. In the 17th century the Scottish king James VI inherited the English throne, becoming the first ruler of all Britain, and the name grew much more popular. Famous bearers include the explorer Captain James Cook (1728-1779), the inventor of the steam engine James Watt (1736-1819), and the novelist and poet James Joyce (1882-1941). This name has also been borne by six American presidents. A notable fictional bearer is the British spy James Bond, created by author Ian Fleming.
