UK Announces Hybrid Work/Study Undergraduate Program To Fill Digital Gap

An anonymous reader writes The UK's Digital Economy Minister Ed Vaizey today revealed a new scheme where undergraduates will be able to avoid student fees and student loans by working for companies for three years whilst simultaneously undertaking academic studies with participating universities, resulting in a degree at the end of their successful involvement in the scheme. The British government will fund two-thirds of the cost of tuition and the host employer the remainder. The "Digital Apprenticeship" scheme will remunerate students at an unspecified level of pay, and though details are currently sketchy, is reported to obviate the need for student loans. The initiative is targeting the skills gap in the digital sector, particularly in the field of web-development and technical analysis.

The way to do it is to clean the sole and heel from all loose material, place the shoe upside-down, fill the worn section with shoe-Goo and let it cure for about 24 hrs. For the heel, I build up a "wall" using masking tape attached to the side around the shoe, the fill it. When cures, just remove the tape. I have used it quite a few times and it works wonders. Everything else I tried just peeled off after a very short time.
