let me set things straight...
do not need to download JavaScript! It is as much a part of your web
browser as the address bar is. It is a built-in component of your web
this article I will will cover...
is JavaScript?
is a programming language that is most commonly used by web
developers to display content on web pages. It shares similar
purposes of HTML but does so much more. JavaScript allows web
developers to create more sophisticated and dynamic web pages with
very particular funtions and commands.
you fill out a form on the Internet, it is common for JavaScript to
be responsible for sending the information in the form to the
appropriate place. This is only one, simple example of JavaScript at
work. There are so many applications for JavaScript and it is working
in the background on nearly every web page on the Internet. So if you
spend a lot of time surfing the web, then you should be concerned
with JavaScript.
rarely causes any errors at all. Of course, everything breaks every
once in a while and your computer, which is supposed to bring ease
and convenience into your life, may begin to cause you a lot of
stress due to annoying and persistent errors.
JavaScript problems happen...
you're getting a JavaScript error, it may or may not be a problem with your computer. In
some cases, it's because the developer made a mistake in their code
that needs to be corrected. JavaScript can be a picky
programming language to work with and if the developer isn't
following the rules, you will get a JavaScript error. Unfortunately,
if there is an error in the developer's JavaScript code, there is
nothing you can do about this. However, if the web page's developer
has listed an email address they can be contacted at, you can email
the developer with the error code and they will probably try to fix
it. Beyond that, there is nothing more you can do for bad JavaScript
In other cases, you
receive an error any time a page is trying to send you content using
What you REALLY need to fix JavaScript problems...
The tool WindowsAnswers.net recommends is called SlimCleaner Plus. It is designed to repair these causes of JavaScript problems, along with much, much more. More than likely, the cause of your JavaScript issue is an internal issue within your computer that you will probably not find without hours of labor, or a call to a technician.

St. Peter and a primacy of honour?
Post: #1
St. Peter and a primacy of honour?
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
In her interesting and pertinent questions, Eve92 has asked about how we regard St. Peter and the Petrine verses from St. Matthew, and whilst I have answered, as best I can, as part of a wider answer to a wider question, I wondered whether it might be worth starting a thread on this particular subject?
The obvious answer is that the OC recognises a primacy of honour to St. Peter and to his See, but there is a sense in which that does not quite deal with the question.
Any survey of the the Fathers on this theme will reveal an array of answers, some finding that Our Lord is referring to Peter's faith, others that the reference is to St. Peter himself. Given that 'Peter' was a name unknown, and that it literally means 'rock', Our Lord is, in fact saying 'You are rock and on this rock .. etc.'.
We know that both the Blessed Saints Athanasius and Cyril worked in closes cooperation with Rome, which both found an ever-present help in times when heresy threatened the Faith. Dioscorus, for whom I know Fr. Peter has a soft pot having done some pioneering work on him, will be able to say better than I can why this cooperation broke down at Ephesus 449 and Chalcedon, but it seems to me as though Cyril's successor played his cards less well than his predecessors had, allowing Constantinople to drive a wedge between Rome and Alexandria.
Long before the EO broke with Rome, they had agreed at Chalcedon that 'Peter speaks through Leo', and whilst, by 1054 they may have had reason to reconsider this view, that was what their Fathers, as well as the Roman Fathers, had said at Chalcedon.
Partly because the circumstances of the EO schism with Rome were so centred on the claims of the Roman Pope, the EO have a worked-out set of attitudes towards Rome; do we, or are we, as in so many things, following in their suit on this one?
In Christ,
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:10)

St Peter and the primacy of honour?
St Peter is the Rock because he first confessed that Jesus is the Messiah.
That is the rock on which all our faith is built. Yes, St Peter was the father of the Church in Rome and all the Popes, good, bad and indifferent, follow on from him. However, St Peter was also the first Bishop of Antioch, therefore the Patriarch of the Syriac Orthodox Church is equally Peter's descendent.
The quarrel with Rome is that they forget the equality of Bishops (all Bishops are equal, all Eucharists are equal) and stress Rome's primacy.
Orthodoxy argues for this equality and is the only theologically tenable position.
Kirk Yacoub
Post: #3
Dear Kirk,
We certainly say all bishops are equal, but it is unclear to me that the Patriarch of Alexandria does not enjoy at least a primacy of honour; he certainly seems more equal than others, as canon 6 of Nicea recognises. I think that is why I wondered about how one defined that indefinable 'primacy of honour'.
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:10)

The idea works well in principle: position a wine bar-restaurant in the downstairs deli heartland of Fortnum & Mason, lay on wine-friendly food and allow customers either to choose from a list showcasing house wines, or purchase from the wine department and pay £10 corkage. It works less well in practice.
The wood-walled room-within-a-room is stylish, but the food – other than deli goods (cheese, smoked salmon, cured meats) – is nothing special, or, in the case of our first two dishes from the short, snacky menu (grape and almond gazpacho, dressed crab) virtually non-existent.
A skewer of merguez sausage and rabbit was the only hot dish, and ours seemed to have been reheated judging by its dry exterior.
For £14, with just some green leaves and cardboardy toast triangles, this was poor.
The house red Burgundy wasn't great either, but it was at the cheerier price of £6.50, for 175ml: the smallest measure available by the glass.
Fortunately, the ten flights of three wines grouped by region or type come in 125ml measures – though even these total a half bottle (share!).
Customers seemed as likely to order Champagne or cocktails at the attractive central bar, and the punctilious staff better briefed to serve them.

LAKE FOREST – An empty lot off I-5 at El Toro Road could become home to the city's first compressed natural gas vehicle fueling station.
The lot's property owners are leasing the one-third acre site to FirstCNG, which plans to build and operate a CNG fueling station there, according to a report by city staffers.
The station would be unmanned, though remotely monitored for security, and open to the public at all times, FirstCNG Chief Executive Officer Kirk Honour said.
Compressed natural gas is growing in popularity with drivers because it is cheaper and burns more cleanly than diesel and gasoline, Honour said.
Orange County has 16 stations offering natural gas that are open to the public, according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District. About 2,300 vehicles countywide, such as buses, street sweepers and cabs, use the alternative fuel, the air quality agency estimated.
While vehicles fueled by natural gas are pricier than those that run on liquid fuel, natural gas costs on average one-third less than conventional gasoline, according to the state's Air Resources Board.
That makes the alternative fuel an attractive option for people who rack up mileage, such as taxi drivers, Honour said. Vehicles that run on CNG are not widely available to the public, however, with the Honda Civic GX the only one available for purchase.
Gas for the Lake Forest station would be supplied by Southern California Gas Co. via an existing underground pipeline along El Toro Road.
State and local grants will pay for a portion of the cost of the station, Honour said.
According to a city staff report FirstCNG would lease the site for a decade, with the option to extend the lease for seven years. At the 17 year mark, the lease's expiration would coincide with the expiration of leases held by adjacent businesses, according to the report. Concurrent expirations would give the landowners the option of redeveloping the area.
The site FirstCNG is eyeing was last occupied by a traditional gas station, which was demolished in 1994, according to the city report.
The city's Planning Commission is set to hold a public hearing on the proposal Thursday.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 25550 Commercentre Drive.

SHELBYVILLE, Tenn. (AP/WVLT) -- A 2-year-old girl has died after a blaze broke out at her grandmother's home.
The Shelbyville Times-Gazette reports the fire was reported late Saturday morning. Shelbyville Fire Chief Ricky McConnell said he thinks the blaze began with an electrical problem and originated in the room where the girl died.
The child's grandmother suffered minor burns, but was able to get out of the house. Her grandfather wasn't injured.
Sgt. Brian Crews of the Shelbyville Police Department said the grandparents were watching the girl while the child's mother worked.
The girl's identity wasn't immediately released.

July 4th weekend in Los Angeles can only mean one thing…Black Gay Pride! There's no better way to end Season 2 than for Noah and the gang get themselves, and their outfits, together for a charity fashion show and the annual beach party.
It's a dark day in the life of our guys as one of the friends experiences homophobia in the worst possible way. Resolutions may be found…but at what cost?
Someone is fired, someone is fired up, and someone puts out a fire. Noah is invited on a popular talk show when a certain hot topic gets controversial, but he's got a few things to work out first.
Ricky's love life gets complicated, Noah's new 'friend' turns up the heat, a desperate housewife struggles to find what she truly wants, a birthday boy gets offered more than slice of cake, and someone needs a straight jacket!
Let the party begin! Noah's day is turned topsy-turvy when a British hip-hop star crash lands in town. His idea of a good time stirs up plenty of trouble, but leads to a budding reconnection…and a revelation!
What do you get when you mix a double-date with your ex, two scandalous encounters with hired help, a third wheel house guest and two desperate housewives? A recipe for disaster.
A shopping trip for new house furnishings goes awry when a family member disappears and blasts from the past threaten to reignite old flames. Ricky surprises himself, and a certain someone, with a revelation.
The second season begins with a bang as Noah and the gang experience more than just a physical shake-up! A traveler returns with some interesting "baggage".
As tensions mount between Noah and Wade, a handsome stranger threatens to rip them apart.
Wade temporarily moves in with Noah, causing much more tension than Noah expected. Meanwhile, Chance's special request to his boyhood church is met with a less than enthusiastic response.
When Wade's career takes a downward spiral, Noah suggests they collaborate on a project, to disastrously tense results. At the same time, Alex monopolizes everyone's time helping to set up his new business.
After the success of his first studio writing gig, Noah schemes to find a way to restore Wade's professional manhood. Meanwhile, the gang rallies around Ricky as he faces a personal crisis.
Noah's status as a starving artist takes a turn for the worst when he gets way behind on his rent and has to sell his beloved classic car after refusing financial help from Wade. Continuing his evolution into the perfect boyfriend, Wade decides to throw him a surprise birthday party to cheer him up.
Noah insists upon meeting Wade's straight friends, but feels uncomfortable when he discovers that Wade hasn't come out to them. Frustrated by Wade's subtle attempts to get him to "butch it up", Noah struggles to stand his ground and be true to his identity.
After weeks of neglecting his friends in favor of his new man, Noah tries to bring the two sides together at Sunday brunch. But Wade's ignorance of all things gay shines through, as does his jealousy over Noah and Ricky's physical closeness.
Noah introduces his best friends Alex, Ricky and Chance to his new friend Wade, an obviously straight screenwriter. The guys note Noah's attraction to Wade and warn him against getting involved, but is there a chance Wade might be gay? Meanwhile, Ricky struggles to resist the advances of his hot new store clerk; Alex discovers his boyfriend Trey's extracurricular internet activity; and Chance feels the pressures of moving in with his new man and baby stepdaughter.
His appeal is hard to miss on screen as Wade. Off screen, he's just as appealing.

Actor Christian Vincent talks candidly about his take on the deeper sides of his character Ricky.
Actor Rodney Chester talks about being with Noah's Arc from the beginning stages to starring on Logo.

Justice to J.D. Salinger
As we follow Lane's consumption of his lunch (Salinger shows him chewing, cutting, buttering, even exhorting his frogs' legs to "sit still"), we also watch—with the bated breath of parents of anorexics—Franny's nonconsumption of hers. At the end of the story she falls into a faint. In "Zooey," at the Glass apartment, the drama of food continues, as the daughter continues to refuse to eat. As in "Metamorphosis" (and in its pendant "The Hunger Artist"), the person who is other, the misfit, is unable to eat the food normal people eat. He finds it repellent. Kafka's heroes die of their revulsion, as does Salinger's hero Seymour. (Though Seymour shoots himself, there is a suggestion that he, too, must be some sort of hunger artist. When he is on the beach with the little girl he tells her a cautionary tale about underwater creatures called bananafish, who crawl into holes where they gorge themselves on bananas and get so enlarged that they cannot get out again, and die.) In "Zooey," Franny is pulled back from the brink by her brother. The story has some of the atmosphere of the Greek myths about return from the underworld and the Bible stories in which dead children are resurrected.
"Neither you nor Buddy knows how to talk to people you don't like. Don't love, really," Bessie Glass tells Zooey. She adds, "You can't live in the world with such strong likes and dislikes." But Buddy and Zooey do, in fact, live in the world, if uncomfortably. Buddy is a college teacher, Zooey a television actor. They have passed through crises like Franny's. They are misfits—Mary McCarthy will always be cross with them—but they are not Seymours. They will live. Now the job at hand is to bring Franny out of her dangerous state of disgust. As she lies fitfully sleeping in the Glass living room on a Monday morning, the mother urges the son to get going with the rescue mission.
The conversation takes place in a bathroom. Zooey is in the bathtub with a shower curtain drawn decorously around him—a red nylon shower curtain with canary yellow sharps, flats, and clefs printed on it—and the mother is sitting on the toilet seat. (The influence of the story's genteel first publisher, William Shawn, may be adduced from the fact that Salinger never comes right out and says where the mother is sitting.) Both are smoking. In his essay on Salinger, Kazin writes with heavy irony, "Someday there will be learned theses on The Use of the Ash Tray in J.D. Salinger's Stories; no other writer has made so much of Americans lighting up, reaching for the ash tray, setting up the ash tray with one hand while with the other they reach for a ringing telephone." Kazin's observation is true, but his irony is misplaced. The smoking in Salinger is well worth tracking. There is nothing idle or random about the cigarettes and cigars that appear in his stories, or with the characters' dealings with them. In "Raise High the Roof-Beam, Carpenters," Salinger achieves a brilliant effect with the lighting of a cigar that has been held unlit by a small old deaf-mute man during the first ninety pages of the story; and in "Zooey" another cigar is instrumental in the dawning of a recognition. The cigarettes that the mother and son smoke in the bathroom play less noticeable but no less noteworthy roles in the progress of the story.
Like the food in "Franny," the cigarettes in "Zooey" enact a kind of parallel plot. Cigarettes offer the writer (or used to offer) a great range of metaphoric possibilities. They have lives and deaths. They glow and they turn to ashes. They need attention. They create smoke. They make a mess. As we listen to Bessie Glass and Zooey talk, we follow the fortunes of their cigarettes. Some of them go out for lack of attention. Others threaten to burn the smoker's fingers. Our sense of the mother and son's aliveness, and of the life-and-death character of their discussion, is heightened by the perpetual presence of these inanimate yet animatable objects.
Bessie and her husband, Les, respectively Irish-Catholic and Jewish, are a pair of retired vaudeville dancers; they closed down their act when the fourth of their seven children was born, and Les took some sort of vague job "in radio." He is himself a vague, recessive figure, an absence. (Note the name.) He is never physically described, nor does his Jewishness play a part in the narrative. One of the things that really got up Maxwell Geismar's nose was what he saw as Salinger's craven refusal to admit that all his characters were Jewish. Of Catcher Geismar wrote, "The locale of the New York sections is obviously that of a comfortable middle-class urban Jewish society where, however, all the leading figures have become beautifully Anglicized. Holden and Phoebe Caulfield: what perfect American social register names which are presented to us in both a social and a psychological void!" (In his discussion of "Zooey," Geismar dryly noted that the family cat, Bloomberg, "is apparently the only honest Jewish character in the tale.") As it happens, Salinger is himself honestly half-Jewish: his mother, née Marie Jillich, was an Irish-Catholic who, however, changed her name to Miriam and passed herself off as a Jew after she married Salinger's father, Sol, with the result that Salinger and his older sister Doris grew up believing they were wholly Jewish; only when Doris was nineteen, and after Salinger had been bar mitzvahed, were they told the surprising truth.
The connection between this piece of biography and Salinger's refusal to be an American Jewish writer writing about Jews in America is impossible to fully sort out, of course, given Salinger's reticence; we can only assume that it exists. But the refusal itself is what is significant. Geismar is acute to note it—but obtuse, I think, to condemn it. The "void" of which he speaks is a defining condition of Salinger's art. The preternatural vividness of Salinger's characters, our feeling that we have already met them, that they are portraits directly drawn from New York life, is an illusion. Salinger's references to Central Park and Madison Avenue and Bonwit Teller, and the Manhattanish cadences of his characters' speech, are like the false leads that give a detective story its suspense. In Salinger's fiction we never really quite know where we are even as we constantly bump up against familiar landmarks. The Catcher in the Rye, though putatively set in an alien nighttime New York, evokes the familiar terrifying dark forest of fairy tales, through which the hero blunders until dawn. Near the end of "Zooey," its hero picks up a glass paperweight from his mother's desk, and shakes it to create a snowstorm around the snowman with a stovepipe hat within. So, we might say, Salinger creates the storms that whirl around his characters' heads in the close, hermetically sealed world in which they live.
Salinger will often literally set his scenes in small, sealed-off spaces—such as, for example, the limousine in which the central scene of "Raise High the Roof-Beam, Carpenters" is set. In "Franny" there is a startling moment when Lane, waiting for Franny to come back from the ladies' room, looks across the restaurant and sees someone he knows. It is startling because until this moment we had no awareness of there being anyone else in the restaurant. Salinger had typically isolated Franny and Lane at their table, so that we saw nothing and heard nothing but their conversation and the remarks of the waiter who attended to them.
The bathroom scene in "Zooey" is perhaps the consummate example of this hermeticity. As if the space of the bathroom was still not small enough, there is a space-within-a-space formed by the shower curtain drawn around the tub in which Zooey sits with a lit cigarette parked on the soapdish. The scene is one of the most remarkable mother-and-son scenes in literature. Before the drawing of the curtain occasioned by the mother's entrance, the immersed Zooey, drawing on his "dampish" cigarette, reads a four-year-old letter from Buddy, in which, among other things (such as encouraging Zooey in his decision to become an actor rather than going for a Ph.D.), Buddy tells Zooey to "be kinder to Bessie…when you can. I don't think I mean because she's our mother, but because she's weary. You will after you're thirty or so, when everybody slows down a little (even you, maybe), but try harder now. It isn't enough to treat her with the doting brutality of an apache dancer toward his partner."
The apache dance begins with Bessie's entrance:
"Do you know how long you've been in that tub? Exactly forty-five—"
"Don't tell me! Just don't tell me, Bessie."
"What do you mean, don't tell you?"
"Just what I said. Leave me the goddam illusion you haven't been out there counting the minutes I've—"
"Nobody's been counting any minutes, young man," Mrs. Glass said.
Bessie is a stout, middle-aged woman dressed in a garment Buddy calls her "pre-notification of death uniform"—a midnight blue Japanese kimono, whose pockets are stuffed with things like screws, nails, hinges, faucet handles, and ball-bearing casters, along with several packs of king-size cigarettes and matches, and who is as unlike the other women in her "not unfashionable" apartment building as her children are unlike the other people in the world at large. The other women in the building own fur coats and, like Muriel and her mother, spend their days shopping at Bonwit Teller and Saks Fifth Avenue. Bessie "looked, first, as if she never, never left the building at all, but that if she did she would be wearing a dark shawl and she would be going in the direction of O'Connell Street, there to claim the body of one of her half-Irish, half-Jewish sons, who, through some clerical error, had just been shot dead by the Black and Tans." At the same time, her way of holding a cigarette between the ends of two fingers
tended to blow to some literary hell one's first, strong (and still perfectly tenable) impression that an invisible Dubliner's shawl covered her shoulders. Not only were her fingers of an extraordinary length and shapeliness—such as, very generally speaking, one wouldn't have expected of a medium stout woman's fingers—but they featured, as it were, a somewhat imperial-looking tremor; a deposed Balkan queen or a retired favorite courtesan might have had such an elegant tremor.
Bessie also has great legs. But her most significant attribute—the one that gives "Zooey"'s comedy its tragic underside (and raises the stakes of its outcome) is her grief:
It was a very touch and go business, in 1955, to get a wholly plausible reading from Mrs. Glass's face, and especially from her enormous blue eyes. Where once, a few years earlier, her eyes alone could break the news (either to people or to bathmats) that two of her sons were dead, one by suicide (her favorite, her most intricately calibrated, her kindest son), and one killed in World War II (her only truly lighthearted son)—where once Bessie Glass's eyes alone could report these facts, with an eloquence and a seeming passion for detail that neither her husband nor any of her adult surviving children could bear to look at, let alone take in, now in 1955, she was apt to use this same terrible Celtic equipment to break the news, usually at the front door, that the new delivery boy hadn't brought the leg of lamb in time for dinner or that some remote Hollywood starlet's marriage was on the rocks.

*CERN technician connects superconducting magnets
in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel.
Norwood, MA (10/25/2011) - The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Switzerland and the University of Sannio, Benevento, Italy, have collaborated on the design of an advanced instrument for measuring magnetic fields in CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) superconducting magnets. Called the Fast Digital Integrator (FDI) board, this measurement device uses Analog Devices' A/D converters, analog multiplexers and DSP components to provide the LHC with the highest possible performance achieved to-date in measuring magnetic fields.
The new FDI board enables 100 times the resolution and frequency bandwidth of the previous generation digital integrator. This significant improvement in dynamic range enables scientists to detect even more minute artifacts that contribute to magnetic field variations, field decay and other time dependent phenomena typical in high-field superconducting accelerator magnets that all negatively affect the quality of particle beams under study. The new FDI boards are used at CERN to measure magnetic flux at 10 revolutions per second through fast-rotating calibrated coils that evaluate the magnetic field produced by the LHC's 8 Tesla accelerator magnets.
"Prior to the FDI board, the available electronic components were not suitable in terms of accuracy or resolution, which in the case of the Large Hadron Collider easily approaches 10 parts per million," said Pasquale Arpaia, professor of engineering at the University of Sannio. "We chose to work with Analog Devices because the quality of the company's products, documentation and support are all very high. This helped make it possible for the FDI to reveal new magnetic investigation regions that we were not able to explore before."
The LHC is the world's largest and highest-energy particle accelerator, as well as the biggest machine ever built by humans. Construction started in 2003 and the LHC was operational in 2008. Its mission is to probe some of the most fundamental questions of physics and advance the understanding of the most fundamental laws of nature. Watch videos to learn more about CERN: http://cdsweb.cern.ch/collection/Videos.
Researchers specified the following ADI components for use on the FDI board:
Innovation, performance, and excellence are the cultural pillars on which Analog Devices has built one of the longest standing, highest growth companies within the technology sector. Acknowledged industry-wide as the world leader in data conversion and signal conditioning technology, Analog Devices serves over 60,000 customers, representing virtually all types of electronic equipment. Analog Devices is headquartered in Norwood, Massachusetts, with design and manufacturing facilities throughout the world. Analog Devices is included in the S&P 500 Index.

What if your resume gets rejected by every consulting firm? Then will you make the necessary changes?
We've seen how the recruiting process works on the inside and outside, and exactly how resumes are chosen for interviews.
We've edited – not reviewed, but actually edited – resumes for thousands of consulting job seekers – many of whom afterwards received not only interviews, but offers from the best consulting companies like McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Accenture, Mercer, and many more.
You probably have the following concerns about your resume/CV and cover letter…
On the resume/CV:
- Is my GPA too low? Should I include it even if I'm many years out of college?
- Should I include my SAT score, even if I'm in business school?
- I don't have any work experience. How can I show that I'm ready for consulting?
- Will 10 years of work experience in IT/engineering/medicine/non-consulting fields hurt my chances?
- I didn't have many leadership positions. How can I tailor my resume to demonstrate leadership?
- I've heard that you can't have more than one page, yet I have too many experiences to include. What should I do?
- Are there specific keywords I should add to get noticed by automated scanners?
On the cover letter:
- I hear that many consulting firms don't read cover letters. How good does my cover letter need to be?
- Can a cover letter be longer than one page?
- Should I put my contact information in the body or just at top? Or do I place it below my signature?
- I've met consultants at information sessions. Can I name-drop in the letter?
- Am I supposed to discuss personal experiences in the cover letter, or just explain why I want to work at XYZ consulting firm?
And finally:
- A recruiter told me both documents need to be more "results-oriented." How can I accomplish that?
- On the website, it says I can submit "supplemental information and documents." What can I send them?
- I feel like my application doesn't stand out, and I can only submit it through the company website. How can I change my application to make sure that when a recruiter reviews it, they remember me?
Here's our offer to help you solve those questions and get interviews!
A resume and cover letter editing service that will impress recruiters and excite consultants. After editing your resume, it will…
- Be a world-class resume with an underlying structure that you can use for the rest of your career
- Highlight your strengths and scream traits that consultants look for
- Hide specific weaknesses that cause recruiters to trash your application
- Include specific keywords and phrases that will red-flag your resume – in a good way
- Turn common work and extracurricular experiences into project-based, results-oriented accomplishments that make you look like a consultant already
Here's what you get with our editing service:
- After making your purchase, you'll receive 2 templates (upgraded to 24 if you purchase the Starter Editing package with the Consulting Resume and Cover Letter Bible included). Use the templates to get started creating one complete resume or cover letter that has the style to stand out. Add your comments to us inside the document.
- We conduct a first round of edits to correct structural problems (both style and content) and get you 80% of the way there. We leave you extensive comments and placeholders where you need to add or adjust information.
- After this, you'll have a lot of homework to add additional information to your story.
- For our second edit, we'll use a scalpel to do a final word-by-word edit looking in detail at each experience and activity, perfecting punctuation and finalizing your documents.
- By now, your resume should be 99% of what we want it to be. But we'll continue providing unlimited advice via email for 14 days when you have additional questions.
Here are a few "Before" and "After" resumes (scrubbed of personally identifying information).
Experienced resume before and after:
A university resume from good to great:
Another from bad to great:
We have examples of even more dramatic changes – resumes that are multiple pages long, completely unfocused, poorly worded – this is an example of what can be done even if you think your resume is already strong.
Here's a "Before" and "After" cover letter:
Aren't there other resume editing services I can use?
Existing services don't hit the mark. Here are some of the problems I see:
- Generic resume services don't know how consulting firms think. Consultants look for specific keywords, phrases, and types of experiences. Generic editors are clueless.
- They charge incredibly high prices for cookie-cutter work, or charge low prices and give a crap product.
- They provide vague and generic feedback — if any at all. "Make your resume less text-heavy" or "Be more detailed in your work experiences."
- There's no opportunity for subsequent revisions. What happens when you have additional insight after their first edit? You have to pay the same price to start over.
Ok, so how much does all this cost?
The total cost for a brand-new resume is $250. For a cover letter or leadership essay, it's $150.
If you want total support, the Consulting Job Hunt (our most popular package) includes a resume edit, cover letter edit, The MC Book Bundle (a $195 value with 6 books) and a 1-hour resume review or interview prep session – all for $475.
You'll get a further discount if you're interested in consulting interview preparation as well – it's only $1975 for Black Belt Deluxe.
This sounds great! How do I get started?
Click the link below to learn more. Don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns!
More frequently asked questions:
My resume is due in 3 days. Can you accommodate my schedule?
Our standard total turnaround is 8-10 days (to complete our 1st editing round, your feedback and our final edit).
We can accommodate a shorter turnaround if needed. Expedited 48-hour turnaround, even over the weekend, costs an extra $100. The extra fee is only charged once, even if you order both the resume and cover letter services.
I'd like your help on my resume, cover letter and the interviews. Can I get a discount?
Of course.
If you're interested in resume and cover letter editing + interview prep, we have 2 discounted options:
- Consulting Job Hunt – Resume/Cover Letter editing + 1 Hour of Interview Prep (includes a free copy of the MC Book Bundle); $475
- Black Belt Deluxe – Resume/Cover Letter editing + 10 Hours of Interview Prep (includes a free copy of the MC Book Bundle); $1975.
To keep things fair for all clients, no discounts for orders placed separately.
Can I get a refund on the interview service if I cancel it after making a bulk order for multiple services?
Interview services are non-refundable, but they also never expire.
I think my resume is pretty good. How can you help?
Even if you've spent months perfecting your resume and asked 20 of your friends to review it, there is always something that can be improved. Unless you've worked at a leading management consulting firm for several years and seen from the inside how consultants and recruiters read and review resumes, you simply won't know the secrets of crafting a resume that will blow your competition away.
If you really don't want the editing service but just want a live review of the resume for its strengths and weaknesses, select the Power Half Hour option from our Plans and Pricing page. We'll spend 30-minutes going over your resume and talking about how and where you should apply that will best suit your background and aspirations.
What if I'm an international student, or applying to offices overseas?
Firms standardize their recruiting methods, so our advice and critique for your resume/CV will apply regardless of whether you're applying to Boston, Massachusetts or Barcelona, Spain.
The editing process is similar regardless of the country, but we will appropriately tailor your documents to the region where you are applying.
I have 15 years of work experience and now want to transition into consulting. Can you still help me?
We find that these clients often need the most help – whether that's in recognizing what consulting firms look for in resumes, or knowing how to highlight only what's important after many years of work experience.
Do you offer discounts if I purchase your services separately? For instance, if I pay full price for resume editing now, can I get the package discount if I choose to purchase the interview later?
You have 30 days to upgrade to a package from an individual service – so you can start with resume editing and upgrade to Consulting Job Hunt or Black Belt Deluxe, as long as you complete the upgrade within 30 days.
To upgrade, just purchase the new package and send us an email – within 48 hours will refund your initial purchase.
How many rounds of edits will you do? Is everything done over e-mail?
We do 2 rounds of edits for your resume and/or cover letter over e-mail. You can ask as many questions as you like within a 14-day period, starting from the day you send in your documents. After that, we will be happy to address specific questions on an as-available basis.
To talk to us throughout the edits, select our Consulting Job Hunt package. Use the hour on the phone with us to make sure we're on the same page, talk through your specific opportunities, and develop a networking plan around your core competencies. We LOVE this option, and our very happiest clients select it, but in the interest of keeping our prices low we don't make it mandatory to include a review over the phone.
I'm looking at a lot of different options for services. Why should I choose this one?
We're glad you asked.
First – do any other services have ex-M/B/B management consultants reviewing the resume, and if so, do they have years of experience working with hundreds of super-satisfied clients? We didn't think so.
Second – do they offer editing, or just a review? If they offer editing, how extensive is it? In our editing services, we rip apart the documents and rebuild them from scratch. It takes hours. We're not cheap, but we're not here to mass-produce resumes – we want interview offers for the select clients we do work with, and we'll do everything we can to get you there.
Third – do they offer 2 rounds of editing, or just a slam-bam one-hit wonder with the hope they got it right? Our 2 rounds are a proven method to ensure that you're thrilled – which is why we have so many client referrals, returning clients (some exiting M/B/B) and a non-existent complaint rate.
I'm a student and the prices seem a bit steep for me. Do I have any other options?
We created the Consulting Resume and Cover Letter Bible just for you!
For just $95, you get access to 24 top templates and 73 packed pages of the advice we would otherwise give you personally for the services. Of course, you'll have to do the really heavy lifting, but we've given you a complete step-by-step guide to help you build a new resume and cover letter on your own – at a fraction of the price!
Fast track your job search process and break into management consulting today!

Women's mountain biking group offers beginner-to-race-level classes.
Who: Ages 12 and older; beginner, intermediate and race-level women cyclists
What: Clinics range from bike fundamentals to race-level tips.
Where: Irvine Lake, 4621 Santiago Canyon Road, Silverado.
When: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 11.
Cost: $50, includes lunch, raffle ticket.
Registration, more: rocknroadcyclery.net
Already nervous, Sandy Awerkamp pulls up to a mountain biking seminar at Irvine Lake and has the same thought many of us have when confronted with a group of hard bodies.
I don't belong here.
Awerkamp knows next to nothing about mountain biking – and she's convinced she's the heaviest person around.
Still, the Mission Viejo woman pulls out her new bicycle and joins the gathering, called the Courageous Women of Dirt. But rather than courage, self-consciousness nearly overwhelms her.
Most of the women are clad in Spandex. Awerkamp wears men's cycling shorts, the only ones for cycling she could find that fit.
But before the day is over, this now-47-year-old mother makes new BFFs, masters the fundamentals of mountain biking and discovers a newfound confidence.
That was one year ago.
Now, Awerkamp bikes four days a week. But it's not about competition, taking on crazy-difficult routes or becoming a hard body. It's about good times.
OK, one more thing before Awerkamp shares her secrets of success: She's lost 30 pounds.
Let's get the burning question out of the way. How much did Awerkamp weigh?
Hoping to inspire others, the 5-foot-9 Awerkamp allows she weighed 257 pounds a year ago.
She is quick to add – perhaps too quick because let's agree that health is a marathon, not a sprint – "I still have a lot of weight to lose."
"I consider myself a work in progress."
Awerkamp's courage to speak openly about struggling with weight is enough to inspire. But her determination to clear a path for others is a special gift.

Can one agent properly represent the interests of both buyer and seller and stay impartial?
Our friends over at Imnan asked the question recently and got a range of opinions from the expected Agent answer that as long as you are honest about conflicts it is fine to the more direct, Buyers do not have the same interests as sellers and even if you represent yourself you are better off then using just one agent.
What do you think?

A Coming Medical Revolution?
The Creative Destruction of Medicine: How the Digital Revolution Will Create Better Health Care
Spectacular advances in the scientific understanding of life processes since World War II have vastly increased the ability of physicians to diagnose, treat, and prevent disease. Nevertheless, even today there is much about the cause of most common diseases and their prevention or treatment that remains unknown. However, the huge and constantly expanding store of information in the medical literature is still mainly the province of physicians, who make most of the decisions about the use of health care resources. As always, patients depend largely on their physicians for counsel and treatment.
A new book by Dr. Eric Topol predicts that this is all about to change. He sees an exciting new era created by the increasing application of digital technology and computers to the study of human biology and health care, which he predicts will cause the "creative destruction" of medicine. Medical care will no longer be controlled by physicians. Neither will medical information be based on the results of studies of large populations, which Topol says give less precise information than do studies of individual patients. Instead, patients will largely manage their own care, based on their access to detailed and digitized information in the world's medical literature and to information about their own bodily functions and individual genetic makeup.
Thus, Topol heralds the coming of "personalized" medicine, in which the convergence of digitized information from all these sources will enable patients to make most of the decisions now reserved to physicians. There will be a parity of knowledge between patient and doctor, which he calls the "democratization" of medical information.
According to Topol, patients will receive, in real time, continuous information about their own physiology, biochemistry, and general health generated by microchip wireless sensors embedded in, or attached to, their body. They will know about their genetically determined diseases, their risks of contracting diseases, and their probable response to therapeutic drugs, as determined by the variations in their fully sequenced genome. All of this vast store of information will be made instantly available and interpreted by their smart phone. Many health care decisions would be made or suggested by computers, some by patients themselves, and far fewer by physicians.
Physicians would continue to manage surgical procedures and the treatment of serious injuries. Even here, however, their direct hands-on activities would be limited to their control of robots, aided by electronic imaging. The result of all these changes, Topol says, will be better and probably less expensive clinical care. There will be much less use of hospitals and physicians' offices, more rational, safe, and effective use of drugs and medical devices, and greater success in the prevention of disease and disability.
How much credence should be given to this description of a coming medical revolution? Although Topol's account sounds like hyperbole, it cannot be easily dismissed, for he bears impressive credentials. He has had a distinguished academic career in cardiology, genetics, and medical education, and he currently is the director of the Scripps Translational Science Institute in La Jolla, California. So, when Topol tells us that patients' biological information about themselves, monitored by digital wireless detectors, is going to produce a new kind of "personalized" medicine, his message deserves careful attention.
He has written his book for a wide public, so it is full of interesting information about new technologies. It describes many new types of micro-sensors and his experience with some of them. There is a helpful primer on genomics ("Genomics 101"), which alone makes his book worthwhile. His language is plain; nevertheless, some of his exposition will be tough going for scientifically uninformed lay readers. Topol and his contemporaries have lived with computers for their entire professional lives. I entered medicine a generation before him, and this may explain some of my skepticism about Topol's prediction of a medical care future so dependent on, and regulated by, computers and digitized wireless devices. Still, I think he stretches current medical science too far. He is much too sanguine about the potential of new technology for providing clinical care and not sufficiently concerned about its limitations.
A particularly valuable section of the book describes recent advances in human genetics, including the sequencing of the total human genome. That sequencing is the process of determining the order of the four nucleic acids in a person's DNA. Thanks to new technology, this stunning achievement is becoming faster and cheaper, and therefore more generally available. However, this instructive description is accompanied by predictions that invite disbelief. Topol envisions a time, not too distant, when every patient's total genetic structure will be known and will be digitally accessible to him or her. He believes the unique variations and mutations in each genome will help to foretell susceptibility to diseases and will guide preventive and therapeutic interventions, including what drugs to use and at what dosage. As will be seen, I regard his predictions about genome sequencing skeptically.
Topol has an interesting chapter on the remarkable advances in digitized imaging of the internal structures of the body (e.g., pocket-sized echocardiographs, CT and PET scanning, and MRIs), which are replacing physical examination and old-fashioned X-rays. And finally, he discusses the application of electronic digital technology to medical records and doctor–patient communication, which is already beginning to replace handwritten records and personal encounters between doctor and patient. These technologies enable the creation of digitized records that at least in theory can be transferred between medical institutions and providers, and collected anonymously for analysis by public agencies, and would also be available to each patient on his or her smart phone.
Simply as descriptions of advances in medical technology, however glowing they may be, most of this material is not controversial. But Topol's expectation that patients will want to attend constantly to the recordings of their bodily physiology and chemistry is, to say the least, questionable. And so is his belief that most people will pay close attention to the innumerable variations in their genetic code that might have a relatively weak statistical association with common diseases.
However, my major concerns are with Topol's conclusions that digitized data recorded from each patient, together with information about his or her fully sequenced genome, will transform the practice of medicine, and will "reboot" the pharmaceutical industry. I also question Topol's speculation about the rapidly approaching parity of knowledge between the public and the medical profession. He thinks that patients, aided by computerized access to the world's medical literature and to computer-interpreted information about their own body and its unique genomal structure, will be almost as knowledgeable about their medical conditions as any physician, and therefore will be an equal participant with their physicians in the management of their medical care.
I doubt that most people will be able to analyze or fully comprehend the avalanche of information that would be available to them, even if recorded and interpreted by a computer. And this would be particularly true when the information is most important to them, i.e., when they are very sick, seriously injured, or simply terrified by the possibility that they might be dangerously ill. Not many people will be obsessive enough to keep up with all the available information about their own body, its vulnerability to disease and likely response to treatment. They will continue to rely on physicians for interpretation of the data and for objective, professional advice, as well as for help with any needed medical procedures. In modern society, with few exceptions, people turn to experts for help, and they probably always will—especially when threatened by a disease or injury they do not fully understand.
Topol also is more optimistic about the clinical benefits of genetic information than many experts would consider justified. It is true that advances in molecular biology have identified a few dozen relatively uncommon inherited diseases that are attributable to specific mutations in the structure of a single gene. Knowledge of the proteins encoded by those genes has helped to pinpoint and understand the molecular events causing the disease. Examples of such diseases include familial occurrence of very high blood cholesterol, cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell disease, Gaucher's disease (fatty deposits in the liver, bone marrow, and other organs), Huntington's disease, and a certain type of breast cancer. They usually follow Mendelian laws of inheritance. Knowledge of the genetic defect, the mode of inheritance, and the causative mechanisms of these diseases has often led to improved medical treatment.
But most diseases, including the most common ones, such as diabetes, asthma, hypertension, coronary artery disease, Parkinson's disease, late-onset Alzheimer's disease, and most cancers, are associated with many variations in the genome—not with just a single mutation. The identification of these multiple genetic variations has often established a statistical association with the disease—usually a relatively weak association—but not the cause.
Neither has genetic information about most of these common diseases led to specific and definitive treatment. This is not only because of the multiplicity of the genetic variations found in patients with these diseases, but also because most of the diseases have so-called "multifactorial" causes. That is, they are the net result not only of multiple inherited and acquired variations in the genome itself, but of many factors outside the genome, elsewhere in the body or in the environment.
These factors may affect the way the genome works, or may themselves be on the molecular pathway directly leading to the disease. As a result, although they may run in families, the development of one of these diseases in a particular individual cannot be reliably predicted by Mendelian laws. Their association with genetic variations is purely statistical and not causal. It will probably be a long time before genomal sequencing results in the conquest of one of the common diseases. Far more likely, and much sooner, we will make progress through increased understanding of the molecular events directly responsible for the disease rather than from the sequencing of everyone's whole genome.1
Topol is an expert in medical genetics, and he must know the arguments against his optimistic predictions; in fact, occasional brief comments in his book suggest that he is aware of the limited use of genomic sequencing in most patients with common diseases. For example, after describing the initial excitement in the year 2000 over the first complete sequencing of the human genome, he acknowledges that "we have yet to gain real knowledge about what was discovered…." Later, when talking about the widespread application of genomic sequencing, he says: "It's not immediately clear what the clinical importance of any of this information is." But the burden and tone of most of his argument leave a different impression. He repeatedly implies that we are on the verge of a great revolution based on understanding how genes determine our health.
Recent studies of the genomic DNA that is not a part of any of the known 21,000 genes have confirmed what most geneticists have assumed: this so-called "dark" DNA controls the activity of the genes. The new work finds that many individual variations in the regulatory DNA have loose statistical associations with common diseases that cluster in families, but cannot be predicted from Mendelian laws of inheritance. Whether these associations will lead to advances in the prevention and treatment of disease remains to be seen.
1 Much of the foregoing skepticism about the clinical applications of whole-genome sequencing is supported by a recent, concise, and authoritative review by Liam R. Brunham and Michael R. Hayden, two medical geneticists at the University of British Columbia, in Science ("Whole-Genome Sequencing: The New Standard of Care?," June 1, 2012).They say at the start that "the vast majority of genomic data is, at this time, not medically actionable." Later, they add: "With few exceptions, there is a lack of data to suggest that genetic testing actually leads to improved health outcomes." ↩

Considering the government has been avidly cutting funds in public sector services, projects and benefits, the investment in its digital strategy has been fairly significant.
While massive public sector IT projects have been scrapped this year in accordance with Conservative Party beliefs, such as the NHS Programme for IT, there has been investment in areas such as open data, open standards, digital engagement and the G-Cloud framework.
These programmes are being pursued by a number of IT government officials in Whitehall, with the Cabinet Office and the Government Digital Service (GDS) at the fore. All such programmes are aimed at bringing increased openness to government, allowing it to be more accessible to citizens.
In addition to these programmes, a number of new initiatives have begun to change the wider mentality of government IT. For example, the government has established a number of IT buying frameworks with Oracle, SAP and Microsoft, which allow all of its departments to license software at the same price, thereby driving down public sector IT costs by an estimated £225m or more, by the end of 2015.
This compares favourably to the usual government approach, where different parts of government buy software from IT vendors on different terms and at different discounts.
The GDS, which aims to increase the take-up of these buying frameworks in the future, has also been responsible for the launch of Gov.UK, a website that replaces Directgov and Business Link, and that will eventually act as a single domain for government services.
Gov.UK allows government information to be more accessible to citizens and is estimated by Whitehall to save tax payers up to £70m per year by reducing duplication of resources.
In creating Gov.UK, the GDS hired many staff from the private sector, a large number of whom were on fixed term contracts. The GDS also employed startups to come in and undertake the design or implementation of different areas of the project.
Such employment techniques are radically different to those the rest of the public sector employ and is another example of the government mentality beginning to modernise.

Auditing and Assurance Services: Understanding the Integrated Audit, 1st Edition: stars based on 1 user reviews.
The book walks accountants through an integrated audit, using a public company as its platform. It explains that when a non-public company is being audited according to AICPA standards certain procedures do not have to be performed. When ICFR are discussed, they are presented in the context of company controls and tests of controls that are important to both management and the auditor. Examples are included from a wide range of industries. Accounting issues that are important in the current environment are also emphasized, including topics such as fair value, accounting for investments and variable interest entities. When accountants complete the book, they'll be well grounded in the knowledge of an integrated audit.
