Posted by Sir_KarlThat is horrible. Sad tragedy to say the least.There have been a few of them for sure recently.My thoughts go out to his family.I don't know if "murdered" is the proper term to use for the headline though.The details aren't out but it seems it was a domestic dispute that went horribly bad. His mother's boyfriend may have been defending himself.Let's not forget Justin was a large and powerful MMArtist.The charge will probably be manslaughter which is a far cry from murder.The mother's boyfriend might even be found innocent on the basis of self defense.The term "murder" insinuates premeditation. I certainly mean no disrespect to Justin.I am saddened to hear this news.RIP

I don't think there will be a "Windows Store" exclusivity. At least not for long.
If Microsoft tries this they will be slapped by antitrust regulators with a billion EUR fine before they can even say "Windows". Windows still has a market share of about 90%, there is no chance in the world they can pull this off.

Northrop Grumman, U.S. Navy, complete at-sea deck handling trials of X-47B unmanned demonstrator. The exercises aboard the USS Harry S. Truman demonstrated the ability to maneuver the tailless, strike-fighter-sized aircraft quickly and precisely on the flight deck using a wireless handheld controller. They are the latest in a series of test activities leading up to the first carrier landings of the X-47B planned for 2013. "The X-47B deck trials proved convincingly that the design and operation of the aircraft are fully compatible with the rhythm and operational requirements of the carrier flight deck," said Mike Mackey, UCAS-D program director for Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems. "They provided a major boost to the team's confidence as we move steadily toward our first carrier landings next year." Northrop Grumman is the Navy's prime contractor for the UCAS-Carrier Demonstration (UCAS-D) program. The company designed and produced two X-47B aircraft for the program. One aircraft was on the ship; the other remains at Naval Air Station Patuxent River where it is undergoing additional shore-based carrier suitability testing. The deck trials were conducted both while the USS Harry S. Truman was in port at Naval Station Norfolk, and while the ship was under way off the coast of Virginia. Mackey said the testing included taxiing the X-47B on the flight deck, maneuvering the aircraft up to the ship's catapults using the Northrop Grumman-designed Control Display Unit; taxiing the aircraft over the ship's arresting cables and conducting fueling operations. The team also moved the aircraft up and down the ship's elevators between the flight deck and the hangar bay. "We proved that the X-47B air system is mature and can perform flawlessly in the most hostile electromagnetic environment on earth, a Nimitz class Navy aircraft carrier," added Mackey.

Please play as large and as loud as you can.
Our friends at Outback Nexus Collective invited us to come up to Lisbon, NY to take part in the North Country Swamp Jam 3-day Festival. We set up our own tent, crammed with amazing DJs and people coming in and out every night all night long.
The visuals and music you see and listen to here are specially selected sections from 12 hours of DJs and live video mixing projected onto the tent walls, 6 hours of which were recorded. This was also the last gig of my laptop, which had water seeping into the screen as I played, with the leaky roof dripping onto my keyboard! The perfect way to go.

By Michael Corcoran
Number of acts: 172
Number of registrants: 700
Keynote speaker: Record producer Huey P. Meaux
Buzz bands: Dash Rip Rock, Reivers, True Believers, Buck Pets, Wagoneers, the Rev. Horton Heat
*SXSW organizers can't get the computers working at registration, so even though the turnout is moderate, waits are long. That's something that the first year has in common with this one. That and Dash Rip Rock. (Note: wristbands are $10, but there are only 15 participating venues.)
Number of acts: 415
Registrants: 1,200
Keynote speaker: Spin Editor Bob Guccione Jr.
Buzz bands: Poi Dog Pondering, Kelly Willis & the Fireballs, Fleshtones, Material Issue, Gunbunnies, Jayhawks, Hundredth Monkey
*The convention is booked into the spanking new Waller Creek Hotel, but when the hotel goes bankrupt before opening and stalls on construction of a promised ballroom, organizers are forced to scramble. The Crest, which is now the Radisson, turns out to be an ill-fitting concession. The noise from each panel bleeds into the next room.
* First tangible sign of a backlash comes from art rock band Ed Hall, who print 'SXSW SUX' T-shirts. Ed Hall applies and is accepted the next year.
Number of acts: 345
Registrants: 1,632
Keynote speaker: Music critic Robert Christgau, with an profanity-filled "invocation" from Mojo Nixon
Buzz bands: Chickasaw Mudd Puppies, Lucinda Williams, Gin Blossoms, Wednesday Week, Pato Banton, Bluerunners, Lets Active, Scruffy the Cat
*SXSW is still fairly unknown outside indie rock circles, when Flock of Seagulls starts the trend of former platinum artists trying to revive their careers at the festival. Thing is, the band doesn't know it. They have no idea that they're supposed to play a 40-minute showcase on a bill with four other bands for almost no money. Wanting nothing to do with SXSW, the band and their surly British roadies run off the SXSW volunteers and throw the rest of the bands off the bill.
Number of acts: 424
Registrants: 2,162
Keynote speaker: Singer Rosanne Cash, with opening remarks by Gov. Ann Richards
Buzz bands: Flat Duo Jets, Trip Shakespeare, Three On a Hill, Twang Twang Shock-a-Boom, Kennedy Rose, Sister Double Happiness, Vulgar Boatmen, Pariah
*The usually dull rock critic panel is dubbed 'The Chris & Claudia Show' after Billboard's Chris Morris and Claudia Perry of the Houston Post (passing around a flask) rip the industry good — to uproarious laughter.
* The first official SXSW afterhours party, featuring Joe Ely, teeters toward danger in the ballroom of the Crest Hotel, when a few thousand drunk and wired party people show up and trash the place. Ely's manager is furious at the lack of organization, but his client gets a record deal from MCA because of the set.
Number of acts: 499
Registrants: 2,833
Keynote speaker: Kinky Friedman, with invocation by Exene Cervenka
Buzz bands: Uncle Tupelo, Barenaked Ladies, Treat Her Right, Drivin' N Cryin', Dixie Chicks, Phranc, Love Tractor
*SXSW takes place the week of spring break, when all the students head to South Padre Island and points beyond, every year except this one, which means Sixth Street is swarming with frat boys and the women who can stand them. Alarmed by the crowds, the fire marshals crack down, ridiculously, often making fans exit a half-full club to comply with outdated load card figures. Wristband wearers are livid — another SXSW tradition begins!
* A couple of club owners are even madder. The owner of Abratto's, a Fifth Street disco meat market, who is given an opening night bill of Houston hard-core bands, cancels the rest of his showcases and the shuttled acts, including the Dixie Chicks, play their showcases in quickly converted conference rooms in the host hotel. Then, when the owner of Mercado Carribe announces that the fire marshal will order the show stopped if people don't voluntarily leave — and nobody does — he pulls out a pistol and fires a shot into the ceiling. To make this the all-time worst year for SXSW, arsonists ignite a stack of Austin Chronicle newspapers outside the SXSW offices, causing extensive smoke and water damage.
Number of acts: 398
Registrants: 3,000
Keynote speaker: Michelle Shocked
Buzz bands: Beat Farmers, Holmes Brothers, Junior Brown, Cracker, Blood Oranges, Poster Children, Southern Culture On the Skids, Bruce Hampton & the Aquarius Rescue Unit, Gear Daddies
*Poor Michelle Shocked. Her pathologically unfocused speech on the history of minstrelsy is supposed to be 20 minutes, but when co-keynoter Willie Nelson gets hung up on the border and cancels, organizers tell Shocked to go as long as she likes. Big mistake.
*SXSW books Helmet and L7, then red-hot, into a 500-capacity dance club, and when more than 2,000 kids show up, it's pandemonium. Some fans storm the door, others climb the walls and break windows to try to get in. People are even jumping on the roof from neighboring buildings. 911 is called and exactly two cops show up, which tempers the anarchy only slightly.
Number of acts: 468
Registrants: 3,800
Keynote speaker: None, but Gov. Ann Richards gave opening remarks
Buzz bands: Pete Droge, Jill Sobule, R.L. Burnside, Freedy Johnston, Green Day, Robyn Hitchcock, Blue Rodeo, Lisa Loeb, Three Mile Pilot, Tripping Daisy, Everclear
*International news is happening with the Branch Davidian standoff up the road in Waco, and some freelance journalists in town do double duty.
*"If you lived in my neighborhood, you'd be selling your (body) for me!" Bushwick Bill, the dwarf (a label he embraces) in the Geto Boys, starts a shouting match with a handful of people in the audience of the hip-hop panel. One guy comes up to the dais and flips off Bushwick, who calls him a slur directed at gay people. Suddenly, everyone is screaming and a couple of guys have to be restrained from charging the 3 1/2-foot rapper. Afterward, Bushwick tells the panelist coordinator that he had a good time.
*In another bizarre panel, an unknown singer calling himself Marilyn Manson sits on a panel about his namesake Charlie.
Number of acts: 482
Registrants: 4,258
Keynote speaker: Johnny Cash
Buzz bands: Beck, Veruca Salt, Presidents of the United States of America, Ben Harper, Mary Cutrufello, Letters To Cleo, Morphine, That Dog, Follow For Now
*Cash plays an incredible solo acoustic set at Emo's, where the stool he sat on later hangs over the bar. Worst booking was putting Lucinda Williams in La Zona Rosa, which is only a fifth as big as it was to become. Co-director Roland Swenson is surrounded by angry fans who couldn't get in.
*After Entertainment Weekly becomes a sponsor, Billboard refuses to recognize SXSW as an industry event. The industry bible will continue to ignore the conference for nearly a decade.
* The debut of SXSW Film, which Statesman movie critic Michael MacCambridge dubs "The Friends of Louis Black Film Festival."
Number of acts: 567
Registrants: 5,000
Keynote speaker: Bob Mould
Buzz bands: Elastica, Wilco, Bush, Todd Snider, Toadies, R.L. Burnside, Bettie Serveert, Guided By Voices, Presidents of the United States of America
* The '94 folding of New York's New Music Seminar vaults SXSW as THE major and indie label confab. Boston-based Rounder Records celebrates its 25th anniversary by hosting a free outdoor concert at Sixth and Brazos streets, featuring a New Orleans-heavy lineup of Irma Thomas, Johnny Adama, Beau Jocque and Rebirth Brass Band.
* SXSW adds an Interactive portion to the conference.
*One of the four founding partners, Louis Jay Meyers, leaves the fold because of creative differences and signs a 10-year noncompete agreement.
Number of acts: 861
Registrants: 5,531
Keynote speaker: Krist Novoselic
Buzz bands: The Fugees, Dandy Warhols, Ben Folds Five, Girls Against Boys, Gillian Welch, Boo Radleys, Sixteen Deluxe, Blink 182
* Charles Attal was been named promoter of the year by Pollstar in 2008, but in 1996, the Stubb's co-owner is so green he pronounces the Fugees, his big second-night headliner, "the Fudgies." Right when the Fugees start, there's a downpour and the show is stopped. Attal figures that's it, but Lauryn Hill gets in his face and says "We want to play!" so after it stops raining, about an hour later, the Fugees play a long set as the empty venue quickly refills.
* SXSW co-director Louis Black says Lou Reed "is showing disrespect for the Austin music scene" by playing a concert that competes with the Austin Music Awards.
Number of acts: 788
Registrants: 5,896
Keynote speaker: Carl Perkins
Buzz bands: Atari Teenage Riot, 24-7 Spyz, Whiskeytown, Of Montreal, Archers of Loaf, Jimmy Eat World, Ron Sexsmith, Ben Lee, Gomez, Less Than Jake, Johnny Lang
* A sign of the times; the most noteworthy panel, hosted by Jon Pareles of The New York Times, is "What's Behind the Drastic Slump In Record Sales?" Or, more to the point: Where Are All the Big Label Parties This Year?
* Wayne Coyne of Flaming Lips keeps things interesting with his Parking Lot Symphony, in which 30 cars parked in a garage at Seventh and Brazos streets play 30 cassette tapes simultaneously with the car doors open. More than 2,000 fans show up.
* This is also the year Tony Bennett plays the Austin Music Hall, to about half a house because everyone figures it would be a mob scene.
* SXSW organizers stubbornly refuse to let their fest compete with the Austin Music Awards, but because most clubs have been jumping the gun, Wednesday is finally added as the official starting night of SXSW.
Number of acts: 834
Registrants: 6,500
Keynote speaker: Nick Lowe
Buzz bands: Imperial Teen, the Donnas, Dust Brothers, Get Up Kids, Rufus Wainwright, Queens of the Stone Age, Olivia Tremor Control, Plastilina Mosh, Damnations, Neko Case, A3, Calexico
* For some reason, SXSW organizers hate bands flown in by outside entities to play private parties. When they hear that Philadelphia-based Internet retailer CDnow is paying Sonic Youth big money to play a party in a 300-capacity club, they work hard to persuade CDnow to move their party to 1,500-capacity La Zona Rosa and make the Sonic Youth set follow the bash as an official SXSW showcase. Wristband-wearers and fans willing to pay cover are ecstatic at the chance to see the Youth, but few get in, as those attending the party just stick around.
* Austin band Breedlove doesn't get signed, they get served, with a summons for breach of contract charges by manager Jan Mirkin as they step off the stage at Steamboat.
* The seeds were planted the previous year, but Los Super Seven become official at a party in the back room at Las Manitas when members of Los Lobos jam with Doug Sahm, Raul Malo, Joe Ely, Ruben Ramos and Rick Trevino.
Number of acts: 829
Registrants: 7,259
Keynote speaker: Lucinda Williams
Buzz bands: Trail of Dead, Lo-Fidelity Allstars, Built To Spill, Patty Griffin, Cibo Matto, the Hives, Bright Eyes, Death Cab For Cutie
* The magic is so quickly followed by mayhem. The night after Tom Waits plays the Paramount Theatre, one of the all-time highlights of SXSW, his friend and sometime-promoter Don Hyde is savagely beaten by bouncers at La Zona Rosa. The bouncers were trying to clear out the crowd after Alejandro Escovedo's set, but when Hyde wants to go backstage to get his bag, there is some jostling, and push soon turns to punch, then to kicks in the side. Hyde suffers five broken ribs, a broken collarbone and a separated shoulder.
* A major Thursday night thunderstorm forces cancellation of all outdoor events that night, including a Willie Nelson concert at Stubb's. Emo's is flooded with knee-high water, but most of it drains by showtime.
Number of acts: 970
Registrants: 8,070
Keynote speaker: Steve Earle
Buzz bands: At the Drive In, Black Eyed Peas, Modest Mouse, Elliot Smith, Marah, Blackalicious, Jennyanykind, Backyard Babies, Morphine, Tenacious D
* Friction sparks between SXSW and Revolver magazine after Revolver flies in Guided By Voices, not an official festival act, to play a private party. Revolver charges SXSW with threatening to call in the fire marshals (a charge denied), but the jam-packed party goes off without a stumble. Good food, too.
* Neil Young, in town to hawk his new concert film 'Silver and Gold' locks himself out of his suite at the Driskill and conducts a news conference, with a handful of critics, in the hallway.
Number of acts: 1,012
Registrants: 7,067
Keynote speaker: Ray Davies
Buzz bands: White Stripes, the Strokes, Aterciopelados, Kasey Chambers, Bellrays, Coldplay, My Morning Jacket, Mogwai, the Shins, New Pornographers, Interpol, Idlewild
* Revolver magazine tries to stick it to the man (SXSW) again, flying in the Cult for a private party, but when staffers show up to register, they discover that their badges have been revoked. 'The roadrunner would be nothing without the coyote,' Revolver's Brad Tolinski says, relishing the controversy.
* Ike Turner plays to a crowd lousy with musicians and a few protesters who'd seen 'What's Love Got To Do With It.' By the end of the incredible set, the crowd chants, 'We like Ike!'
Number of acts: 1,035
Registrants: 6,300
Keynote speaker: Robbie Robertson
Buzz bands: Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Los Lonely Boys, Clinic, Mastodon, Norah Jones, Eels, Drive-By Truckers, Minus the Bear, Polyphonic Spree, KaitO, Tift Merritt, Mooney Suzuki, OK Go
* The worst SXSW booking of all time puts Norah Jones, who has the No. 1 album in the country, in the upstairs banquet room of the Clay Pit Indian restaurant. Forget, for a moment, that it's a little rude to put the daughter of Ravi Shankar in an Indian restaurant, but what is the woman about to win six Grammys doing playing any restaurant?
* Courtney Love draws the biggest crowd ever for a non-keynote, and her rambling, self-indulgent, 'one on none' interview doesn't disappoint rubberneckers. Love complains of a tequila hangover, but they don't serve tequila in the men's room of the Hole In the Wall, where she had locked herself with a couple of unsavory locals for an hour the night before.
* Los Angeles rockers the Icarus Line make national news when the guitarist smashes a display case at the Hard Rock Cafe and tries to play a guitar that once belonged to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Bouncers chase the culprit four blocks before he gets away.
Number of acts: 1,079
Registrants: 6,577
Keynote speaker: Daniel Lanois
Buzz bands: Raveonettes, the Rapture, Junior Senior, Granddaddy, the Darkness, Eisley, Petty Booka, the Locust, Tegan & Sara, D4, Fall Out Boy
* With the invasion of Iraq imminent, war becomes a big topic in President Bush's former backyard. First you had the flap over Natalie Maines' expressed embarrassment that the president was from Texas, which hit the news just as SXSW was starting. Then, 7,000 anti-war protesters flooded the already packed streets near the Capitol.
* Several hundred counterfeit wristbands are confiscated on the last night of the fest. The pirate bracelets are traced to a print shop near the UT campus. Four men are charged and plead guilty.
* A mini-riot of about 600 disappointed Molotov fans breaks out outside the sold-out show by the Mexican hard rockers. Police on horseback break up the melee.
* The Saturday afterhours Spin party, long the hippest invite at SXSW, goes daytime Friday at Stubb's. The previous year, the bash was halted by TABC officers who claimed it did not fit the guidelines for a private party after hours because names of invitees were not kept on a list. (Apparently, 'Sia Michel plus 220' isn't good enough.)
Number of acts: 1,279
Registrants: 7,213
Keynote speaker: Little Richard
Buzz bands: Mindy Smith, Hold Steady, Franz Ferdinand, Dizzie Rascal, Decemberists, Broken Social Scene, N.E.R.D., the Thrills, Scissor Sisters, Killers, Coheed and Cambria, TV on the Radio, Dirty Projectors, Joanna Newsom
* The year of the Ozomatli bust. Austin police look silly arresting two members of the Latin rock band after a conga line on Sixth Street turns into some roughhousing and a cop claims percussionist Jiro Yamaguchi hit him with a drum. The charges are eventually dropped.
* Local breakout band Los Lonely Boys break all attendance records with their free show at Auditorium Shores. If the Town Lake venue holds 10,000 comfortably, there are 25,000 on hand. But the trio also plays in the back of Las Manitas at a party celebrating the making of Alejandro Escovedo tribute album 'Por Vida.'
Number of acts: 1,326
Registrants: 9,692
Keynote speaker: Robert Plant
Buzz bands: LCD Soundsystem, M.I.A., the Go! Team, Bloc Party, Paul Wall, Giant Drag, Kaiser Chiefs, Futureheads, We Are Scientists, Nine Black Alps, Aqualung, John Legend, Ariel Pink
* SXSW comes to East Austin, the new daytime party hub. But even with so many festgoers venturing on 'the other side' of the freeway, downtown is clogged beyond belief and waits outside Sixth Street clubs are the longest ever.
*Those clueless kids from MTV's 'Real World: Austin' drag themselves out of the Dizzy Rooster long enough to film a documentary about SXSW, following around those white-hot buzz bands Halifax and Enon.
*The weather is brutally cold the first day of SXSW, but heats up nicely by the next day. Not so at the huge aircraft hangar Charles Attal rents out for its annual after-hours party. Jessica Simpson is among the freezing guests who come out for Queens of the Stone Age.
*Who knew Robert Plant is so funny and charming? The former Led Zep singer's 'keynote conversation' with Bill Flanagan is the best SXSW opener ever.
Keynote speaker: Neil Young
Number of acts: 1,400
Registrants: 10,821
Buzz bands: Arctic Monkeys, Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, the Like, KT Tunstall, Chamillionaire, the Gossip, Dresden Dolls, Subways, Magic Numbers, the Sword, Tapes N' Tapes, Silversun Pickups, Flight of the Conchords
* The year of the stowaway. Chicago fashion designer Catherine "Cat" Chow is so intent on getting to SXSW that she stows away in the bathroom on a sold-out flight from St. Louis. Chow is arrested upon arrival in Austin.
* Arctic Monkeys play SXSW the week after appearing on "Saturday Night Live," hitting town with incredible synergy. But there's not much of a line outside their showcase at La Zona Rosa because everyone figured (a la Tony Bennett) that there'd be no chance of getting in.
Keynote speaker: Pete Townshend
Number of acts: 1,580
Registrants: 11,750
Buzz bands: Amy Winehouse, Peter, Bjorn & John, Lily Allen, the Pipettes, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Razorlight, Tilly & the Wall, Okkervil River
* Things seemed to have gone swimmingly, but when word gets out that SXSW organizers provided fire marshals with a list of private parties, resulting in three big bashes being shut down, Internet comments sections exploded in rage. In one of his many defensive posts, SXSW co-founder Louis Black uses a truly bizarre analogy concerning an abacus.
* Stax 50 Revue at Antone's features a set by Booker T and the MGs, with guest vocals from Isaac Hayes, Eddie Floyd and William Bell
Keynote speaker: Lou Reed
Number of acts: 1,809
Registrants: 12,651
Buzz bands: Vampire Weekend, Duffy, Sons and Daughters, Yeasayer, Bon Iver, Adele, She & Him, Fleet Foxes, MGMT, Black Keys, Darondo
*SXSW has apparently forgiven "disrespectful" Reed for the sin of playing on the same night as the Austin Music Awards. The gutter Caruso is everywhere, even playing "Walk On the Wild Side" at a Lou Reed tribute at the Fader Fort.
* Rachael Ray hosts her first SXSW party at the Beauty Bar, which is predictably jampacked. Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top jams with the Cringe, whose guitarist John Cuisimano is Mr. Rachael Ray. Perez Hilton also makes the scene for the first time, hosting Katy Perry, among others: SXSW has officially jumped the guy in the shark suit handing out fliers.
Keynote speaker: Quincy Jones

* Quincy Jones makes two hours fly by in his keynote speech. Too bad he went on for another 20 minutes and made everyone hold hands while he recited a motivational poem.
* To promote its new "Guitar Hero" game, metal gods Metallica play a "surprise" show at Stubb's. The other worst-kept secrets were Kanye West's set at the Levi's Fader Fort and Jane's Addiction at the Playboy/C3 party. We've come a long way from Chickasaw Mudpuppies.
* Cops shut down the Red Bull Moontower after hours party on East Cesar Chavez after noise complaints, so Erykah Badu, who had earlier been an hour late for her Auditorium Shores show, doesn't get to go on.
* Twitter was introduced at SXSW2007, but by 2009 Dag Juhlin of Poi Dog Pondering had mastered it. Sample tweet: "Hey, anyone know where I can find a determined young band in giant sunglasses handing out their CD? Oh, wait, here are 6,000 of them." Juhlin sent more than 100 tweets from his home in Illinois.

* Alex Chilton passes away at home in New Orleans on the opening day of SXSW, so the Saturday Big Star showcase at Antone's is transformed into a moving memorial.
* The temperature drops 40 degrees from Friday to Saturday, making for the coldest day in SXSW history. Nature's way of telling the SXSW masses they've been having too much fun. The corporate presence at SXSW is getting a little crazy with parties being sponsored by Taco Bell, Harley Davidson, Levi's and every new energy drink on the market.

CV / Applications Advice
What to expect...
If you'd like some tailor-made advice on how to improve your Cv's and applications, our 1 to 1 Application coach can help. If you already know what you're applying for and why* but would like advice on a specific application for something before sending it off, our GradClub Applications Adviser, Debbie Scott-Andersen, can give you professional help to improve the way you're marketing yourself. The session can cover applications for:
- a job / internship
- a volunteering project
- a further study course
- a PhD position
- funding
- or anything else you might be applying for
Whether your application is in the form of a CV, covering letter, personal statement or answers to specific questions on an application form, ideally bring in:
- a draft copy of your application
- details of what the recruiter is looking for* (e.g. a job description or course overview)
and the Adviser can go through these with you.
They will focus on whether your application is fit for purpose and give you advice on how to improve it if necessary. They can also help you analyse your skills and experience in relation to how these fit with the recruiter's requirements and help you understand how to promote them effectively so that you can use the same techniques on similar applications.
*If you're not sure yet what you're going to apply for, you should first book a Short Guidance appointment to discuss your options and to research areas of interest first instead. You can then book for Applications Advice when your CV / application is more tailored to something specific.
Appointment Availability and Booking
Applications sessions run at the same time every week:
- Monday to Friday: 10am - 5pm (term time only*)
- Thursday: 5pm - 7pm (term time only*)
- Monday to Friday: 2pm - 4.45pm (outside term time*)
Appointments are available at 15 minute intervals during these times.
Bookings can be made online up to 7 days in advance using your My Careers Service
account. Once logged in, use the 'I want to... / Make Appointment'
option and select 'UCL Applications Advice' from the list of options to
check appointment availability.
If you are
unable to book online or would prefer to book by phone or in person
at UCL Careers, please see our Contact Details. You will need your student ID card when booking.
Multiple Bookings: Due to high demand, students can only book one appointment at a time. If you do book multiple appointments, only the earliest appointment will be recognised and any bookings on subsequent dates will be automatically deleted.
Please also note: As appointment slots are pre-bookable in advance, they may not be available at short notice / for same day booking if demand is high. However, appointments may be cancelled at short notice so it's worth checking availability regularly through your My Careers Service account.
*Please check the main UCL Website for details of term dates and College closure days.
What we don't / can't cover...
The Applications Advisers will not write your application for you so you should use the resources and/or events suggested below before booking to ensure you have a well written draft before meeting an Adviser.
We're also unable to provide advice on an application without knowing what it's being used for as content / structure is likely to vary based on a particular recruiter's requirements. We cannot therefore give advice on a "general CV" without at least having some idea of who it's being sent to and why.
Spelling, grammar and general proof reading
As the guidance and feedback concentrates on the content and relevance of an application for the target area of work or study, while we may point out grammatical or spelling errors in passing, it is our policy not to proof-read applications, nor to give detailed feedback or coaching against English Language competency. Such coaching falls beyond the remit of our specialist area.
This also means the sessions aren't designed for repeated checks of the same application or multiple applications which are similar in content to make each one word perfect.
Where the English demonstrated in applications is clearly unlikely to meet recruiters' requirements, we would encourage students to take advantage of the wide range of English language courses offered by UCL Language Centre. Our downloadable Spelling and Grammar Guide can also help with common errors. You could also show the application to someone whose first language is English to proofread it or for help with spelling/grammar - e.g. a friend, work colleague, someone on your course etc.
Foreign Language applications
We are aware that UCL students go on to live, work or study in a wide range of countries. However, we are only able to read and give advice on applications written in English. Our Work and Study Abroad page does provide links to resources with very detailed information on how application procedures/formats may vary in different countries so these can be used with the advice on content as detailed above to draft an application in English which you can later translate into the relevant language.
How to prepare...
Before booking for Applications Advice, you will need to write a draft application, (CV, cover letter, personal statement or application form), based on the requirements of the recruiter that you're applying to and bring this with the job / course description to the appointment.
RESEARCH - Do you know what the recruiter is looking for?
In addition to the job or course description and company / institution profile, (which will obviously give you a clear idea of what a particular recruiter is looking for), the Researching your Career or the Postgraduate Study pages on our website will suggest resources that you can use to gain more in-depth information on the area you're applying to which will help with your application.
They will also highlight other services we offer such as recruitment / networking events or other ways of speaking to recruiters directly to get information and advice on writing effective applications.
WRITING THE APPLICATION - What should you include?
Once you know what a recruiter is looking for, the way you provide evidence that you're "it" is also important. The Writing Applications section of our website suggests a range of resources which provide practical guidelines and examples for writing any type of application which should be used before speaking to an Adviser.
This page will also highlight other services we offer such as talks and group workshops on writing applications led by recruiters or our own Careers Consultants which can be useful before you speak to an Adviser on a 1-1 basis.
SHORT GUIDANCE - Would careers advice be more useful?
Remember, if you're unsure about your career or further study options and don't yet have an application written for something specific, a Short Guidance session will be more useful than Applications Advice. These appointments can be used to explore options in terms of what areas your skills, experience, qualifications and interests might be suited to.
Who Will I See?
Debbie Scott-Andersen is our GradClub Applications Adviser and has specialist training on current recruitment methods, (for work or further study), and what employers/course providers look for.
If you are late or unable to attend...
Cancellations can be made up to 1 hour before your appointment time through your My Careers Service account so that it can be offered to another student.
Late arrival: If you call in advance to tell us you're running late, we will hold the appointment for 5 minutes so that you can make use of the remaining 10 minutes on arrival.
However if you are more than 5 minutes late, your appointment will be cancelled so that later appointments are not affected and you will be asked to re-book for a later
Failure to cancel appointments in advance or repeated late arrivals will affect your ability to book future appointments.
Please note: Due to the nature of 1-1 guidance, some appointments can last slightly longer than 15 minutes which means we cannot guarantee that you will always be seen exactly on time. However, you should still avoid arriving late so that your appointment isn't cancelled.
Access to other 1-1 Appointments...
As a GradClub member, you also have access to 30 minute Short Guidance appointments which can be used for checking applications as well as getting more general careers advice.
Please note however that you no longer have access to the 15 minute Short Guidance or Applications advice appointments which are run for current students. Through your My Careers Service account, you should only book appointment types listed as UCL GradClub. Any appointments made which you're not eligible to use will be automatically cancelled.

Summary (Masterplots II: British and Commonwealth Fiction Series)
Everything in Hotel du Lac is seen through the eyes of Edith Hope, a diffident and unassuming writer of popular romantic fiction who is staying in a hotel of former splendor beside Lake Geneva, apparently against her will. She has been temporarily banished from London in some kind of disgrace. The hotel, the few guests who are lingering on to the end of the season, and the events which have led to Edith's reluctant vacation are described in an elegantly written third-person account of her thoughts, reminiscences, and observations and through the long and loving letters she writes to David Simmonds, a married man with a family, with whom she has been having a clandestine affair.
The letters are full of wryly amused accounts of her fellow guests and their behavior, but she makes only cursory references to her encounters with Philip Neville, a cool and immaculate businessman who has recently turned up at the hotel. Not until the end of the novel is it revealed that none of the letters had been posted.
The only other guests are an elderly aristocrat, Madame de Bonneuil; the beautiful but painfully thin Monica, "Lady X," with her little dog; and the rich, glamorous, elderly widow Iris Pusey and her voluptuous daughter, Jennifer Pusey. Through her observations of these women, Edith tries to come to grips with her own emotional dilemma, which is revealed in gradual stages.
Although Edith loved David and was never happier than when ministering to his insatiable lust for food, she had been depressed by the infrequency of his visits. After meeting Geoffrey Long, a prosperous but very boring businessman, at a party given by her...

Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Newly arrived at the Hotel du Lac, a tasteful, well-serviced establishment in the shadow of a thirteenth century castle in Switzerland, Edith Hope, a writer of romantic novels, contemplates the elements of her exile at the hotel. Friends had told her that she should go to the hotel for self-reflection after she had been humiliated and shamed for not showing up at her own wedding.
At the hotel, Edith composes a long letter to her married lover, David Simmonds, revealing her insecurity and loneliness. It is the end of the season; the tourists are gone, the attractions are closed. Only a few assorted guests remain. The first evening, Edith is fascinated by the entrance of the glamorous Iris Pusey and her daughter Jennifer, who acknowledge her presence with only a slight nod. Later in the salon, Edith observes Mme de Bonneuil and another guest, an extraordinarily thin woman with a small dog whom she constantly feeds. She also observes an elegant gentleman with an ironic smile. Despite these observations her fellow guests seem quite unknowable. She is unable to reach out to them socially and feels alienated and detached.
Back in her room, Edith evokes memories of her mother, a discontented and bitter woman, and also recollects her first meeting with David at the party of her friend, Penelope Milne. Edith and David had exchanged glances only, but he returned to her house later, beginning their illicit affair. Edith yearns to call him, but restrains herself.
The next morning, Edith becomes acquainted with Monica, the beautiful thin woman, who is holding her dog, Kiki. Monica says that she is at the Hotel du Lac for health reasons; later, Edith learns that Monica had been sent to Switzerland because she had been unable to produce an heir for her husband. He felt that the place would help Monica to become stronger and more likely to reproduce.
In the afternoon, the elegant gentleman, Philip Neville, suggests a walk, a welcome activity to Edith, who finds little incentive to work on her current novel and is somewhat bored. That night, as she prepares for bed, Edith hears a scream from the corridor and, fearing that Mrs. Pusey has had a heart attack, she hurries to the Puseys' rooms. She finds Jennifer's door open, and finds Jennifer in a rather inappropriate position on her bed, flimsily clad. Also in the...

Summary (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
At the beginning of Hotel du Lac (hotel of the lake), Edith Hope is thirty-nine years old. As usual in Brookner novels, she is less than beautiful. She is shy, meek, intelligent, and lonely. She is beginning an unexplained exile at an exclusive hotel on the banks of Lake Geneva in Switzerland.
Like Frances in Look at Me, she is a writer, but she is more than simply a satiric observer. In this novel, Brookner expands on the relationship of real life to fiction. Edith is an established writer of romances; she knows how to write stories with happy endings. She divides people into hares and tortoises: The hares are beautiful, selfish, and loved, like Nick and Alix in Look at Me; tortoises are meek, plain, and unloved, like Ruth in The Debut. Even though in real life the hares always win, Edith knows that her romances are popular because the women who read them are tortoises, and in her books the tortoises always win. Hares do not read books; they are too busy having fun.
The characters of Hotel du Lac are not so easily categorized, although Edith's descriptions of them are brilliant and amusing. The pencil-thin Monica and an aging countess may be tortoises. A grotesque old lady and her plump, seductive daughter seem like hares. The elegant and charming Philip Neville is clearly not a tortoise. After Edith, the professional novelist, invents plots for them, however, she discovers her fictions are nothing like their true stories.
Edith herself is not exactly a tortoise. She has participated in life. From the beginning, Edith reveals part of her story in letters (unmailed) to David, a married man who has been her lover. Halfway through the novel, the reader learns why Edith is in Switzerland: She had to get out of town after leaving her fiancé waiting at the church. At the end of the novel, she is tempted to escape her lonely life forever when Philip Neville offers her a luxurious, loveless marriage. She rejects him and returns home to uncertainty.
Like other Brookner heroines, she has yearned for true love and lost it, but that does not mean she has given up on fiction. In a final letter, she tells David that she has always believed in the happy endings of her romance novels, though she now suspects they are not for her.
Chapters 1-4
Hotel du Lac begins in late September at a quiet, respectable hotel in Switzerland, where Edith...

Mayo Clinic doctors start by asking you about your symptoms and by doing a thorough physical examination and blood tests. This initial exam may be enough to indicate a cause of GI bleeding.
But if the source isn't obvious, Mayo Clinic doctors can use sensitive imaging technologies to find it. Results from one procedure determine the next procedure to use until the cause is determined.
Mayo doctors use these tests:
If your GI bleeding is severe, and noninvasive tests can't find the source, you may need surgery so that doctors can view the entire small intestine.

It's been stuck in my head for minutes and seconds and hours...
Below, check out a video of Nirvana performing "Heart-Shaped Box" from their December 13, 1993, Live and Loud concert at Seattle's Pier 48.
Below, check out a video of Nirvana performing "Scentless Apprentice" from their December 13, 1993, Live and Loud concert at Seattle's Pier 48.
The director's cut of Nirvana's 1993 music video for "Heart-Shaped Box" has turned up on EW, just another part of the 20th-anniversary hoopla surrounding the band's upcoming In Utero reissue.
Universal Music Enterprises will release a deluxe remastered version of Nirvana's final album, In Utero, on September 24. The release is timed to commemorate the landmark album's 20th anniversary.
This past Friday night, Paul McCartney and his band were joined on stage by the former members of Nirvana — Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear (Nirvana's second guitarist for a spell) — at Seattle's Safeco Field.
An obscure and frankly slightly disturbing promotional TV teaser for Nirvana's classic third album, In Utero, has surfaced online. Be sure to check it out below.
A few years ago, the editors of Guitar World magazine compiled what we feel is the ultimate guide to the 100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time. The list, which has been quoted by countless artists, websites and publications around the world, starts with Richie Sambora's work on Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive" (Number 100) and builds to a truly epic finish with Jimmy Page's solo on "Stairway to Heaven" (Number 1).
Whether you began on an electric or an acoustic guitar, there's no doubt the latter will eventually find its way into your hands at some point. The nature of the acoustic guitar's efficiency (no amp!) makes it a commonality among players, collectors and dorm-room guys looking to impress girls. Even the most devout shredder will be tempted to noodle on a dreadnought — particularly in front of the aforementioned girls.
According to Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl, "Cut Me Some Slack," his recently released collaboration with Paul McCartney, took about three hours to write and record.
Just a week after teasing a performance from a new supergroup at the Sunset Film Festival premiere of his new Sound City documentary, Dave Grohl has revealed his bandmates for what promises to be a historic performance on Friday, January 18.

Saints Nation: Does Devery Henderson Have a Future in New Orleans?
The Saints current crop of receivers feature Marques Colston and Robert Meachem as the two guys that are guaranteed roster spots. Lance Moore does not have a contract with the team and depending on how the new labor deal works out, he'll either be a restricted free agent or an unrestricted free agent. Either way, he's expressed discontent over how his contract situation has played out so it's uncertain whether or not he'll be back. The Saints want him back, no doubt, but I get the sense Lance Moore values his worth higher than what the Saints are willing to pay him. Another receiver who is making strides is Adrian Arrington. Arrington is a promising young player that should get a shot next season. Whether or not that means the end for Henderson remains to be seen.
Personally, even if Arrington stays healthy and Lance Moore gets re-signed, I still think Henderson has a chance to stay on the Saints. That said, I did feel like his blazing speed regressed a bit last season. To me he looked a little heftier and I wonder whether he lost a step which could have caused his major drop off in performance. Henderson has always been a poor route runner and he's always had very inconsistent hands, but the one advantage he has always had against anyone he lined up against was elite speed. My perception is the drop off in that department left him as a below average player and the statistics last season showed that. If I'm the Saints, I'm encouraging Devery to get to whatever playing weight gives him the separation speed he needs to be effective if he wants to continue generating that kind of income.

The Ole Miss Rebels were hoping Wednesday's game against the Arkansas-Little Rock Trojans would allow them to get back on track after dropping two of three to Tennessee at home last weekend.
Instead, the Trojans were able to capitalize on several mistakes from freshman second baseman Alex Yarbrough and the Ole Miss relief pitchers to overcome an early 4-1 deficit and defeat the No. 17 Rebels 9-6 at Oxford-University Stadium. (April 8, 2010, Page 6)

Regional Preferences for Hierarchies, Markets, and Networks: Exploring Social Capital Data for Germany
Social capital is often defined as consisting of trust and post materialist values on the one hand, and social networks on the other. From an institutionalist point of view this concept is not convincing. Norms (i.e. informal institutions) can combine with different governance modes, not only with networks. The regional governance literature distinguishes between at least three governance modes, hierarchies, markets, and networks, each having its own advantages. This paper examines how regional preferences for these modes are related to trust and post materialist values. A principle component analysis of 48 social capital indicators for 74 West German regions shows that trust and post materialist values do not solely combine with networks but also with preferences for markets and hierarchies. A cluster analysis identifies two dominant types of regional social capital. These types are different from the well-known Italian patterns described by Robert Putnam in his seminal work. In the period 1995- 2002, annual economic growth was on average one percent higher in regions that have combined trust with strong preferences for markets and weak political networks than in opposite regions.Download Info

SSL Request empty when create new SSL in ISPConfig
Hi all!
I use presently the ISPConfig version 2.2.3 since 2 months ago and I'm very happy with it. I have also installed ISPConfig with the Fedora 5 manual from HowToForge on this website too. I know the restriction about one SSL per IP with Apache2. Well my problem is: when I create a new SSL on an account with ISPConfig, the SSL Request is empty and I'm unable to take the "SSL Request" values for request my certificate; but the country, province, town, company, deparment and days are kept... I have tested with IE6.0 and Firefox 1.5 and I have this problem. Does I make a wrong manipulation or if a bug with ISPConfig? I follow exactly the Admin manual of ISPConfig in PDF... Strong?!? Thanks for your help! |
When you create an SSL cert, please wait a little bit longer before you return to the SSL tab. It might take one or two minutes.
Strange again... :confused: |

My Thick Diaper
As I am sitting here writing this, I am sitting in the thickest diaper that I could find and it is soaking wet, one more wetting I think it may leak but I'm about to have a nap so I look forward to going to sleep with a nice big thick wet diaper between my legs and the warmth on my private parts then waking up wetting again and seeing if this diaper leakThere will always be this contradiction between feeling safe for the night with a voluptuous enough buffer, and making sure it gets soaked enough to really get the diaper feeling. It often happens I start to drink more, because it can take more, and then I go to sleep it's already very soaked, by then I often feel too excited to sleep, because of knowing it will never hold my morning pee.. and more.
Often I last minute decide to change and I then sometimes put on a fresh one that is less thick, just to make sure again it's filled to the brim right after my morning coffee 'sofa toilet' visit.
I read your story, read the comments, seems most of us like to wear our diapers after using them, most times until they fail. I could say it was a matter of money and using the diaper to it's full potential, but no, I like the feeling of wetting one time too many and having it leak out soaking my panties.
Using the diaper at least once before going to bed is very popular, going to sleep is easier, and when I wake up I don't have to rush off to the bathroom, I can pee on the way to the kitchen instead. Nice, freshly wet, happy and comfortable.
Mmm, waking up wetting is the most relaxing feeling! I've only done it once in recent years, but it's definitely something I would like to repeat -- in the right circumstances. Do you do it often?
I just got my first Leakmaster waterproof cloth diaper in the mail today. Since I had a couple hours of yard work to do, I put it on. It's very thick and comfortable. After 5 wettings, it began to leak into my exercise clothes. The first thing I noticed was wetness on my bottom, and then on the inside of my right thigh. Apparently squatting to pick up twigs and branches squeezes urine out of the diaper. It's good to know the limits of your protection, especially if you don't want your naughty pleasure to be discovered.
I have allways woren my night diaper a wile aftergetting up unless i have to get dressed right a way
Mmm, delicious! Isn't it fun to wake up and flood your diaper with more hot pee? I like to wear my sopping diaper all morning, until it leaks and I have to change my clothes. I especially like that submerged feeling when the diaper is full and the pee has no place to go and just warms my private parts.
Did you wake up wet?

Two Placed on Injured Reserve: According to Giants.com, the Giants placed two players on Injured Reserve last week who were first waived/injured a day before. The players are DE Justin Trattou and DT Martin Parker. Because of these moves, we have updated the Transactions and Roster sections of the website.
Injury Report – JPP Has Back Spasms: Not practicing yesterday were TE Travis Beckum (PUP – knee), OT Will Beatty (back), OT Brandon Mosley (ankle), DE Jason Pierre-Paul (back), DE Adrian Tracy (hamstring), DT Chris Canty (PUP – knee), DT Marvin Austin (back), DT Shaun Rogers (blood clot), LB Michael Boley (hamstring), CB Terrell Thomas (knee), CB Jayron Hosley (toe), and CB Brandon Bing (hamstring).
Regarding Pierre-Paul, Head Coach Tom Coughlin said, "Back spasms, kept him off his feet…I think it is (usual soreness)…He's not going to play (against the Bears)."
When Coughlin was asked if he was concerned about Pierre-Paul, he responded, "No, I think it will end up being precautionary based on what we had to do today. Not letting him work. He would have practiced and played (in regular season), but the medical people said this is the best way to go, so that we ensure going forward that he's going to be OK."
Coughlin was asked if he had an update on Hosley. "I don't," said Coughlin. "I wish I could tell you, but I don't. He's sore."
"I've been doing treatment and anything I can to get the muscle along and get the stiffness out," said Hosley. "I've been doing a lot of motion with it, trying to work it out. It's been going pretty good for these past couple of days. I'm feeling good about it."
"It's just something that you got to take day-by-day and do the right thing to get it right," said Hosley. "Hoping next week (I'll return), early next week. That's what we're shooting for so that's what I'm working towards."
S Will Hill did not practice because of a death in the family.
CB Michael Coe (hamstring) returned to practice.

Quotes: Head Coach Tom Coughlin on DT Markus Kuhn: "He's a tough kid. He has great energy. He's there every day, you can see every second. He plays hard, he's got a lot to learn, but there are no obstacles in terms of his desire to be good and the time that he'll spend doing it. We've been excited about him."
Coughin on DT Marcus Thomas: "We're anxious to see him play a little bit. It's kind of a very interesting story for a guy that started and played 11 games last year…(defensive tackles are) not easy to find. To have a guy like that, that was available to come into your camp and also to be medically okay."

While many of the proteins involved in the initiation of DNA replication are conserved between yeasts and metazoans, the structure of the replication origins themselves has appeared to be different. As typified by ARS1, replication origins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are <150 bp long and have a simple modular structure, consisting of a single binding site for the origin recognition complex, the replication initiator protein, and one or more accessory sequences. DNA replication initiates from a discrete site. While the important sequences are currently less well defined, metazoan origins appear to be different. These origins are large and appear to be composed of multiple, redundant elements, and replication initiates throughout zones as large as 55 kb. In this report, we characterize two S. cerevisiae replication origins, ARS101 and ARS310, which differ from the paradigm. These origins contain multiple, redundant binding sites for the origin recognition complex. Each binding site must be altered to abolish origin function, while the alteration of a single binding site is sufficient to inactivate ARS1. This redundant structure may be similar to that seen in metazoan origins.
