Writing Content
Get Quick, Basic Tips for Appropriate Content
- Research the organization to which you are applying.
- Organize your résumé to match the expectations and requirements of the job opportunity.
- Emphasize information about you that fits the culture and mission of the company.
- Information should be organized from top to bottom, left to right, with the most relevant information toward the top of the page. As you move down the page, information should still be relevant, but less so.
- In describing your job responsibilities, start each task or duty description with an action verb that describes the essence of your duty. For example, "Demonstrated new products." "Resolved customer complaints."
- Provide details of your successes. For example, "Achieved highest annual sales in department, totaling $25,000 gross compared to $19,000 average." "Served as hall advisor and program organizer for 40 residential students ranging from freshman to senior status, representing all majors." "Volunteered for Habitat for Humanity, committing 500 hours to home construction in Xenia, Ohio, between September and December 1999."
- Detailed but succinct, bullet-pointed phrases beginning with action verbs are appropriate way to convey descriptions of your experience. You do not need to use complete sentences or punctuate with periods on your résumé.
- Include class projects of significant duration or impact in a "Projects" section on your résumé.
- Include volunteer activities, professional affiliations, and clubs.
- You can include classes relevant to your major and concrete qualifications for the job, particularly if you do not have much or any experience in your field.
- Include all certifications valued by or necessary in your field, prominently displayed toward the top of your résumé.
- Do not include personal information.
- Do not list references on your résumé unless the employer's instructions specifically say to do so.
- Do not include high school activities unless they are of national or international prominence, are relevant to your objective and you are a recent high school graduate.
- Keep the format consistent throughout the document so readers know where to find things.
Sample résumés in this section show formatting suggestions for traditional, paper copy as well as electronic representations of those paper copy résumés (viewed in Word or PDF format).
There are a variety of other ways to present résumé information, which you may hear about or be asked to provide, including but not limited to:
- text (rather than a Word or other processed document) that is uploaded into online, job application websites
- résumé information uploaded into a LinkedIn account or other social media or digital format
- résumés submitted for federal government jobs or other opportunities with specific formatting requirements
- résumé information posted to a personal website
- text included in an email message
- video résumé
Listing these methods of résumé formatting does not imply endorsement, but is provided for your information.
Different formatting rules apply to the various methods of communicating your résumé.
Expect to redesign and reformat your résumé for each new method that you utilize, just as you must rearrange the information on your traditional résumé for each job to which you apply, tailoring the document to the specifics of the opportunity.

Format your résumé for a professional appearance:
Review a sample résumé layout
Setting a right-aligned tab for résumé layout
For word-processed résumé formatting, to align city and state info and dates of service info from the right margin, insert a right-aligned tab.
Setting the right-aligned tab is most efficient if you set it before you create a document, but can be done on a line by line basis.
Do not use the space bar to mimic right alignment. The space bar tricks the eye, but not the electronic underpinnings of the software. If you print a document where the space bar has been used to imitate alignment, the misalignment will often be apparent.
Here's a quick explanation of how to set the right-aligned tab in Microsoft Word on your résumé. There are no key commands in the software for this process, therefore the instructions rely on visually-identified icons, symbols, and positions:
- There is a small, selection box in the upper left of the Word screen, above the vertical ruler.
- When you select the symbol in that box, the enclosed marker changes.
- The default (preset) marker is a left-aligned tab, which looks somewhat like a capital L.
- Get to the right-aligned tab by selecting options until you have what resembles a backward L.
- If you pull your mouse arrow away from this box with the backward L, then put your mouse over it again, an alt tag will appear that identifies it as Right Tab.
- Then, move your mouse arrow to the document ruler.
- Set your right-aligned tab a few spots away from the right margin (you cannot initially set it on the right margin)
- Select the newly set right-aligned tab marker and drag it to the spot on the ruler that is even with the right margin marker.
Review Microsoft instructions for setting, editing, or clearing tabs »
Why we recommend right-aligned résumé content
Use of right-alignment enhances the neatness and organization of your résumé.
Recruiters may take 20 to 30 seconds on the first go-round to visually scan your résumé. If you present information to them in well-assembled visual bits that fit a predictable pattern, they will find your document easier to use - and that ease of use will contribute to the overall, positive impression you are trying to make.
What you did and where you did it (title and organization) have more importance in the hierarchy of information than the location and dates. In English, information placed on the left side of the page will be read before information on the right side of the page.
It is also likely that you will present your experience under headings that group by types of experience, rather than in straight, reverse chronological order, in which case the dates do not function as a primary piece of information.
When résumés are being reviewed by a person (as opposed to a computer), too much information ganged together can slow up the visual scan of the résumé, and slow up the time it takes to separate and process the information. When you separate the title and company names from the dates and locations by a restful dose of white space, in a predictable pattern on the page, you give the reviewer's eye and brain well-organized access to easily-processed chunks of information, with a predetermined hierarchy of importance.
Why put the location and dates on at all, you might ask. Good question! When you did the tasks, fulfilled the responsibilities, and achieved accomplishments is important because it speaks to how up-to-date your skills are; how recently you exhibited a habit of leadership, achievement, and teamwork (or other positive qualities); and of course, how recently you were employed in a relevant field. Where geographically you did it speaks to the depth and breadth of your professional and cultural background.
There are times when vertical space considerations might not allow the right alignment of dates and places. For example, you might need to adjust the formatting to reflect the dates and places in one line across the page.
Always plan for the ease of your end user.
If the style you use to format a résumé will be subjected to a human, visual scan, the basic advice is to make the formatting consistent throughout the document and therefore predictable. Based on your first few entries on the résumé, the reviewing eye and brain are assembling predictions about how and where they will find information on the rest of the page.
If your résumé information is orderly and systematic, the reviewer will acquire your information in an orderly and systematic way, making the job of assessing you easier and happier. Your work will impress them as orderly, systematic, and effective. In contrast: if your information is presented in a new way with each entry, that makes information retrieval a more involved and labor-intensive process for the reviewer, and you may be perceived as unreliable, disorganized and ineffective.
Set single spacing using Microsoft formatting tools
Single or double vertical spacing can managed through settings in word-processing programs. For résumé development, we recommend setting single spacing as the default setting.

- Career with summary

- Career, graduate degree with field experience
- Career, graduate degree with tech skills (2 pages)
- Career, functional format
Should I include my references on my résumé?
References should be listed on a separate sheet using the same heading (name, address, etc.) as on your résumé. This creates a consistent, professional image. You should list 3 to 6 professional references who can speak about your work. When listing references, include their name, title, and contact information. Always ask a person before listing them as a reference and provide them with a copy of your résumé. This will assist them when they are called to provide a reference for you.
What type of paper should I use?
Use a high quality 20 lb. or heavier paper in white or other neutral tones. Colored paper, when copied, often times looks muddy and unprofessional.
What is the best way to submit a résumé electronically?
If possible, ask the employer what format they prefer.
Some options for submitting an electronic résumé are: Word document, PDF, or plain text document.
Some online application sites request that you upload your document into a database in a particular format. Other online application sites as that you paste your résumé content into a text box.
It is a good idea to create your résumé in a variety of formats to accommodate these methods of application.
When documents are submitted into a database via an online application system, they may be subjected to a computerized keyword search. The employer is looking for those items that they have determined to be important to execute the job duties and responsibilities. Keywords can often be found in the job description, but not always. It is important to benchmark jobs in your field to know what qualifications, trainings, certifications, skills and other assets represent keywords. Read our advice on jobs benchmarking ›
What type of font should I use?
Since many résumés today are submitted electronically or scanned, it is important to select a font that is not overly cursive. Good selections are serif fonts such as Bookman, Garamond, Palatino, and Times New Roman or sans serif fonts such as Arial and Arial Narrow. Use a font size between 10 and 12.
What is the proper format for my résumé?
The format for your résumé depends on your experience. The reverse chronological résumé is probably the most common for new college graduates. In this format, your educational background and work experience are listed so your most recent degree or job is first and you work backwards from there.
The functional résumé is typically used for individuals making a career change or those who do not have work experience in their targeted area. This format highlights specific skills that are transferrable to the targeted job. Some skill areas might be Leadership Skills, Customer Service Skills or Planning Skills. Be sure to target these to match the requirement of the specific job to which you are applying.
The combination format utilizes features from the chronological and functional résumé formats.
What is the appropriate length of a résumé?
For most new college graduates, a one page résumé will be sufficient. In some cases, a two page résumé may be warranted. Remember, however, that a perspective employer will spend only about 15 to 45 second reading your résumé. Therefore, you will want to format your résumé so it can be easily and quickly scanned to find pertinent information.
What are some strong action verbs?
The list of Action Verbs opens in a separate window using Adobe® Acrobat Reader®.
Get the latest free version of Adobe® Acrobat® Reader®
What type of information should my résumé include?
Review our Résumé Guidelines
Should I list all of my job duties from my previous employment?
You should highlight those things that set you apart from other candidates. Instead of providing a laundry list of previous job responsibilities, focus on your accomplishments. Be sure to connect these to the job requirements.
How much time do employers typically spend reviewing a résumé?
Employers typically spend fifteen to forty-five seconds the first time. The initial scan is to sort résumés into "yes" and "no" stacks. Your goal is to get your résumé into the "yes" stack so that the employer will go back and read it more carefully and invite you to an interview.
Should I list my GPA on my résumé?
If your Cumulative GPA is 3.0 or higher, include it on your résumé. If your Cumulative GPA is lower than 3.0, but your Major GPA is 3.0 or higher, list only your Major GPA.
How should my educational experience be listed?
List your degree first in its entirety, i.e., Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. It is a good idea to highlight this. Next list the date the degree was conferred, followed by the name of the institution and the city and state.
How do I start to write my résumé?
The best way to start is to develop a list of all your previous work experience. List all of your jobs on a sheet of paper. Then begin to compile a list of all of your job responsibilities, special projects and accomplishments. This can serve as the springboard for the experience section of your résumé as you begin to develop short, bullet point statements of your accomplishments beginning each with a strong action verb.
What is the purpose of a résumé?
The purpose of a résumé is to provide a prospective employer with an overview of your credentials including your educational background and work experience. The résumé should be written so that it will entice them to invite you for an interview. One way to think of a résumé is as a marketing tool, and the product is you.

The Hitts kept coming -- Library exhibit chronicles 20 years of progress under president
The UCF Library celebrates the 20th anniversary of Dr. John C. Hitt as president with a special exhibit that runs through March.
The exhibit, John C. Hitt: Twenty Years of Leadership, offers pictures, postcards, awards, placards, signed sporting goods, and other memorabilia that highlight the two-decade tenure of the president and UCF First Lady Martha Hitt.
The display, assembled by UCF's Office of Constituent Relations, chronicles notable milestones since the Hitts arrived at UCF on March 1, 1992. Those landmarks include the openings of major campus facilities, such as the Student Union and Bright House Stadium; the founding of the UCF College of Medicine and the medical city at Lake Nona; and various achievements by UCF athletic teams.
The glass-enclosed display is on the second floor of the library near the second help desk and the elevators. It is viewable during normal library business hours on weekdays and weekends through March 31.
The Hitts' service at the university coincides with the rise of UCF as one of America's great success stories in higher education.
In 1992, when the Hitts began at UCF, the university ranked 115th nationally in enrollment and fifth among state universities. Today, UCF is America's second-largest university and the largest in Florida. More importantly, UCF has made major gains in the quality of its students, faculty members and programs, gaining national distinction on many fronts as a major metropolitan research university. UCF has also become a vital force in creating jobs and enhancing the quality of life throughout Central Florida.
President Hitt, UCF's fourth president, is currently the longest-serving leader among Florida's 11 state universities. He recently signed a five-year contract extension.

Watkins-Logan-Garrison Texas State Veterans Home is named after three local heroes - two Medal of Honor recipients and a Tuskegee airman. Family members of Travis Earl Watkins, James Marion Logan and Samuel M. Garrison will be on hand to share stories and display treasured memorabilia, including two Medals of Honor.
Watkins-Logan-Garrison Texas State Veterans Home is built on 20 acres donated by the University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler. The donated land is just north of the Health Science Center, along the west side of Highway 155, just south of County Road 334.
The home was made possible thanks to a $12 million grant from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, with the remaining 35 percent paid for by the Texas Veterans Land Board. The new Texas State Veterans Home will join seven others across the state in Amarillo, Big Spring, Bonham, El Paso, Floresville, McAllen and Temple. But unlike previous Texas State Veterans Homes, the Smith County home will consist of 10 cottages and one common building. The design approach for each cottage focuses on drawing residents into social connection by mixing the best communal aspects of a home while still maintaining privacy and independence for residents.

Who thinks that this app is a good app and why do you feel this way? I rarely use it....it feels like duplication.
Snapseed goes free, adds Retrolux, integrates Google+
Snapseed, one of the best bits of photo editing software on the iPhone and iPad, has gone free-as-in-Google today, and as some modicum of recompense, added Google+ to its mix. Snapseed had gone free for short periods of time in the past, before the Google purchase, but this time there's no going back. And, if free isn't enough, they've also added a new, Retrolux filter:
Use one of the newly created film styles, combined with a range of different scratches and textures as well as light leaks to create a truly retro look for your photos.
And updated the Frame filter:
Now includes a wide range of new, high quality photographic frames. Colorize the frame edges to match the look of your image or switch to square mode with a single tap.
Google bought Snapseed developer Nik Software back in September, and at the time both Nik and Google saw it as a way to provide better photography tools to a wider range of people.
Online photos is a huge part of social networking, and an area Facebook increasingly dominates, especially after their Instagram purchase. Google, smartly, knows if they want to capture attention and migrate social towards Google+, they have to provide a compelling platform for users, and that includes photos.
Making Snapseed free, and launching it on Android, which was also announced today, is just one more piece to that social puzzle.
Anyone been avoiding Snapseed before based on price, and planning to get it now that it's price-less?

Snapseed goes free, adds Retrolux, integrates Google+
I use Snapseed a LOT. Usually my go-to app if I need to make any photo corrections. For me the selective adjustments are what puts it head and shoulders above any other apps, and the intuitive controls just make it that much easier to perform complex actions quickly.

Nickels To Dimes is one of the easiest yet most astounding coin tricks that every magician should have, it's that good! And Shrinking Nickels takes that classic trick one step further!
Make a stack of nickels shrink into tiny nickels! Or change a stack of nickels into a stack of dimes! Or make the stack of nickels disappear! Or pass right through a solid table! So many effects are possible!
What makes this trick so unique, though, is the set of miniature coins that are included. The tiny coins are actual 1/5 size replicas of US nickels!
The Shrinking Nickels set is quality made of brass for years of troublefree use. The set comes with instructions, brass cap and, of course, the tiny nickels. Sorry, replacement tiny nickels are not available separately.
Prior to introduction of the "nickel", five-cent pieces were made of silver and were called half-dimes. After the Civil War, silver was in short supply, so the coin was changed to a copper/nickel alloy. Thus the term "nickel" came to be used.
As of December 2006, the market value of the metal used to mint a US nickel coin is actually more than 5 cents, the face value of the coin.
Is it illegal to use real US coins to make magic tricks? According to the U.S. Treasury F.A.Q., the answer is- No. It is only illegal to alter a US coin with the intention of spending it as if it were a coin of a different value.From the official U.S. Treasury website: "Section 331 of Title 18 of the United States code provides criminal penalties for anyone who 'fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the Mints of the United States.' This statute means that you may be violating the law if you change the appearance of the coin and fraudulently represent it [in a monetary transaction in trade for goods or services] to be other than the altered coin that it is. As a matter of policy, the U.S. Mint does not promote coloring, plating or altering U.S. coinage: however, there are no sanctions against such activity absent fraudulent intent."

This multi-disciplinary course will expose students to basic communications and computer science materials on the core technological principles of the Internet, as well as more traditional social science materials such as public policy documents and reports as well as academic texts. In order to reinforce students' appreciation of the importance of adopting a technologically-informed approach to studying the Internet, the course will cover several key policy debates such as content regulation, privacy and security and Internet governance, in each case identifying the extent to which the range of policy options is narrowed or expanded by fast-moving technological innovation, and shifts in public policy and regulation. This will, in addition, enable students to appreciate the broader implications and relevance of academic study in this field.

Merse gives his verdict on all the weekend's games
As ever, you can follow all the Premier League action this weekend on Sky Sports.
We asked Soccer Saturday expert Paul Merson to look at the fixtures and give us his verdict on where the games will be won and lost.
Every week he'll be here on skysports.com to share his views on who he expects to be the winners and losers of the weekend.So read on for his shouts and don't forget to let us know your views via the comments box...
Ford Super Sunday: Chelsea v Arsenal
1pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
I went to Chelsea on Wednesday night and you have to wonder if Rafa Bentiez is having a joke with some of his decisions.
As soon as Southampton got back to 2-2 he took Frank Lampard off. When you're trying to win a game, why would you take him off? He's a player who scores important goals for you. My 11-year-old daughter wouldn't have made that decision and it's like he's trying to wind the fans up on purpose.
The fans have turned on Fernando Torres now because of Benitez, which made the whole thing worse, and the mood wasn't good at full-time. He said in the programme that real fans don't boo and it just feels like he's trying to wind up the supporters.
The game with Arsenal will be interesting because Chelsea have a big semi-final next week against Swansea. I think he might rest a couple of players because the Capital One Cup is a huge chance for them to win a trophy this season.
But this is a huge game for Arsenal because it looks like they're going to finish outside the top four for the first time since 1996.
I thought Laurent Koscielny deserved to be sent off against Man City - it was bad defending - and the team was heartless after that. The almost accepted they couldn't win with 10 men.
They needed leaders, someone to rally the lads, but they sulked for too long. James Milner's goal was a brilliant finish, but the Arsenal players were standing around and sulking; you wouldn't see that in kids' football.
Both Chelsea and Arsenal have looked flaky at the back (I still can't believe Chelsea gave away a two-goal lead to Southampton) and so this should be a high-scoring football match.
But at the moment I feel Arsenal are a long way behind.
Ford Super Sunday: Tottenham v Man Utd
3.30pm, Sun, Sky Sports 1 HD & Sky 3D
Roman Abramovich should be looking at Andre Villas-Boas from the other side of London thinking 'why did I ever let him go?'
He's got an unpopular manager in charge, he's lost out on Pep Guardiola and I can't see Chelsea getting anybody better.
Admittedly, Harry Redknapp left Villas-Boas a very good football team with very good players and there wasn't a lot to change, but at the same time he's carried it on. They haven't been as entertaining this season, but they've been a lot more solid and I think they look like a top-four side.
I think they can get a result against Manchester United too. They'll miss Emmanuel Adebayor, who hasn't pulled up trees this season, but would have been a big asset in a tight game.
Man United normally like to have a go, but I'm sure Sir Alex Ferguson will be aware of Tottenham's pace on the wings. He may use people like Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young here to protect his full-backs and play on the counter-attack because he won't want Gareth Bale and Aaron Lennon running at Rafael and Patrice Evra with pace all game.
With Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie up front they're always likely to score and I think Ferguson would take a draw. They rarely go anywhere looking for anything other than a win, but he'd take a point and tick the game off because I don't see too much between these two teams.
Ford Monday Night Football: Southampton v Everton
7pm, Mon, Sky Sports 1 HD
The way Southampton have treated Nigel Adkins is disgusting, absolutely disgusting.
Read Paul's verdict on Adkins' sacking here .
I didn't think Southampton would win this game anyway because Everton are such a good football team, but I'm even more convinced after that decision.
I still feel Everton have every chance of making the top four. They'll need a bit of luck with certain players staying fit, but as the games go by they look as solid as anybody.
Swansea played two right-backs against Leighton Baines last week and that shows you the respect Everton are getting from other teams. In the past, teams would go to Everton thinking they have a chance of winning, but it's a tribute to Everton (and Baines) that teams will change how they play to stop them.
They may have that problem for the rest of the season and will they be able to cope with that? It will be interesting, but I think they will win this.
Liverpool v Norwich
Liverpool were too timid at Old Trafford last week. They were better in the second half, but it's easier to play when you're 2-0 down and I was disappointed by them. They're not a million miles away, but they lack consistency although I would expect them to beat Norwich. They were going through a bad patch and stopped the rot against Newcastle, but I think Liverpool are too strong.
Man City v Fulham
This is a home banker. Man City need to get on a roll and start winning football matches. They've not been great this year, they've fallen over the line a few times but I expect them to win this easily because Fulham are very up and down. City were 10 points behind Man United before the Arsenal game and it could be four points after this weekend. How quickly can this league change?
Newcastle v Reading
Brian McDermott will go there, sit back for 20 minutes and keep things tight. The fans and players will get very shaky the longer it stays 0-0 and if Reading keep them quiet they've got every chance - and they will be very happy if they can come away with a point. It's all about the first 20 minutes, but I'm just going for Newcastle with home advantage. The 40,000 Geordies cheering them on will just give them a bit more energy in a tight match.
Swansea v Stoke
I'm doing this game on Soccer Saturday and I think Swansea will rest a few players before the Capital One Cup semi-final. How often will they get this close to Wembley and to playing in Europe so I'd be shocked if people like Ashley Williams play in this game? However, Stoke's away record is not the best and they've been leaking goals recently so I'll go for a draw.
West Ham v QPR
West Ham have been very decent at home, but QPR won't be too fearful and this result could easily go either way. Harry has made them more difficult to beat - they kept clean sheets against Tottenham and Chelsea - and if you don't let in goals you've always got a chance. They needed two or three goals just to draw games at the start of the season and Harry has tightened things up. The points are mounting up and they need to go to Upton Park and keep their run going with at least a draw.
Wigan v Sunderland
I was shocked to see Sunderland go out of the FA Cup. The priority is to stay up, but the fans would like a cup run and I think the defeat to Bolton was very, very disappointing. Wigan have to win this football match or else they could be in major trouble and so I am going to go for them to do it. I just feel they need it more than Sunderland.
West Brom v Aston Villa
Villa have a big semi-final on Tuesday night, but this game is much more important. I bet Paul Lambert wishes he could rest some players, but he needs to play his best team to try and get out of the bottom three. If my predictions are right then Wigan, Reading and QPR will all get points and Villa will be in big trouble. But West Brom aren't playing that well and I feel Villa can get a draw. I'm going for a Desmond.

Ashley Elizabeth Barksdale pled guilty in Jones County Superior Court June 6 and received 10 years for the offense of VGCSA possession of methamphetamine. She was also ordered to enter a state residential substance abuse treatment center and will remain incarcerated in the Jones County Law Enforcement Center until space is available at the treatment center. Following successful completion of the drug treatment, the remainder of Barksdale's sentence may be served on probation.
She was arrested May 1 with James Edward Wall, who was also charged with VGCSA possession of methamphetamine.
Assistant District Attorney Gregory Bushway told the court that Sheriff's Investigator Gerry Nelson received information that Wall would be coming to Jones County in a tan Avalon and there was an outstanding warrant for his arrest.
The prosecutor said officers set up surveillance and spotted the car. It was stopped on Highway 49, and Wall and Barksdale were identified.

UPDATED: Facebook for iPad available now!
UPDATE: It's out! Go get it!
The waiting is over, folks, as Facebook has let us know that Facebook for iPad is set to hit the App Store today! It appears as though it will be available as an update to the Facebook for iPhone app.
In addition to an interface designed for the iPad, some of the app's great advantages over the web is that you can chat and play Facebook games.
I complained nearly a year ago about Facebook not having an iPad app, and it's great to see them finally release one. I sure as heck can't wait to get my hands on it!
- Enjoy bigger, better photos - Your photos take on new life on the iPad. They're big, high-res and easy to flip through—like a real photo album.
- Focus on what matters - With less on the screen, it's easier to zoom in on your friends' photos, updates and stories.
- Navigate anywhere, fast - Just tap, slide or pinch to get from one screen to another and back again in no time.
- Never lose your place - Use simplified navigation to send a message, see your notifications or browse your bookmarks without switching screens.
- Play games on the go - Play your favorite Facebook games wherever you are, and on a bigger screen.
- Tap to send messages - A simple dropdown menu makes it easy to scan and send messages without visiting your inbox.
We'll let you know as soon as the update becomes available!

UPDATED: Facebook for iPad available now!
The update is up now! It's cool :-)
Can't see it in the UK store yet :(
its not an ipad app just download the iphone app and it becoms ur ipad facebook
Awesome... doesn't work on my iP4
Update says for iphone 4 too.
looks exactly like "for TouchPad", except maybe with a couple more features...
Hey man, it's Aaron, delete the app and reinstall. I had the same issue on my 4.
Spinning wheel, app won't load on my 3Gs
Did a hard reset, an it took awhile to load up, but worked this second time around.
I can't wait... I bought an iPad 2 yesterday and told myself that I was only going to d/l apps that were made for the iPad only. That may change, but for now, iPad only. I really don't use FB, but it's nice to have if I want to check something. Also, I like Zynga Poker (haven't played it in over a year) and might play it if it's accessible through FB as I don't like the Zynga app -- battery drains and gets my iPhone hot.
INteresting.... the iPhone version shows as supporting the iPad now... but it doesn't display in the iPad results.... crazy...
Not for me, I can't get it to load, hard reset and everything
That worked. Thank you so much!
Worked like a charm. And I didn't even have to do anything with iTunes. Just deleted the app, hard reset, reinstall app, bam! Fixed.
It's great when it works
Cool story yo
Having same problem. Deleted app, and now iPhone is bricked. Apple logo frozen for over 2 hours now with no relief in sight. Will not complete a hard reset and iTunes will not recognize phone.
same with me....still resetting my phone after deleting the app, and I've been stuck on the silver apple at startup.
This happened to me. I just kept re starting over and over until it finally came on. I had to re start with charger connected to get it to work
I thought I'd lost my mind ... Then I remembered it's a Facebook app. It played beautifully on my iPad 2 but wouldn't install on my iPhone 4. Restarting the device did not help. Deleted and reinstalled. Problem appeared to be not in the download phase but installation. Make a cup of hot cocoa, come back to the device and voila! Works beautifully on pad & phone. Only wish now it could get me to my Facebook videos. Otherwise it's really the best way to go.
Okay I give up...how do you chat?
D'oh never mind I figured it out--just turn the iPad to landscape! I love the Facebook for iPad software! Don't know how I got along without it.
Thank god! My prayers have been answered. I love this app!!!
Don't know if anyone else has noticed this yet but after downloading the update I was in iFile and was looking in the images section of the Facebook app folder and found and the Facebook home screen icon named as "brandonandjeffwerehere" I just thought that was a little bit cheeky of them, and maybe some of you guys will like it too

- Dissecting the influence of Mg2+ on 3D architecture and ligand-binding of the guanine-sensing riboswitch aptamer domain (2010)
- Long-range tertiary interactions determine the three-dimensional structure of a number of metabolite-binding riboswitch RNA elements and were found to be important for their regulatory function. For the guanine-sensing riboswitch of the Bacillus subtilis xpt-pbuX operon, our previous NMR-spectroscopic studies indicated pre-formation of long-range tertiary contacts in the ligand-free state of its aptamer domain. Loss of the structural pre-organization in a mutant of this RNA (G37A/C61U) resulted in the requirement of Mg2+ for ligand binding. Here, we investigate structural and stability aspects of the wild-type aptamer domain (Gsw) and the G37A/C61U-mutant (Gswloop) of the guanine-sensing riboswitch and their Mg2+-induced folding characteristics to dissect the role of long-range tertiary interactions, the link between pre-formation of structural elements and ligand-binding properties and the functional stability. Destabilization of the long-range interactions as a result of the introduced mutations for Gswloop or the increase in temperature for both Gsw and Gswloop involves pronounced alterations of the conformational ensemble characteristics of the ligand-free state of the riboswitch. The increased flexibility of the conformational ensemble can, however, be compensated by Mg2+. We propose that reduction of conformational dynamics in remote regions of the riboswitch aptamer domain is the minimal pre-requisite to pre-organize the core region for specific ligand binding.
- 13C-direct detected NMR experiments for the sequential J-based resonance assignment of RNA oligonucleotides (2010)
- We present here a set of 13C-direct detected NMR experiments to facilitate the resonance assignment of RNA oligonucleotides. Three experiments have been developed: (1) the (H)CC-TOCSY-experiment utilizing a virtual decoupling scheme to assign the intraresidual ribose 13C-spins, (2) the (H)CPC-experiment that correlates each phosphorus with the C40 nuclei of adjacent nucleotides via J(C,P) couplings and (3) the (H)CPC-CCH-TOCSY-experiment that correlates the phosphorus nuclei with the respective C10,H10 ribose signals. The experiments were applied to two RNA hairpin structures. The current set of 13C-direct detected experiments allows direct and unambiguous assignment of the majority of the hetero nuclei and the identification of the individual ribose moieties following their sequential assignment. Thus, 13C-direct detected NMR methods constitute useful complements to the conventional 1H-detected approach for the resonance assignment of oligonucleotides that is often hindered by the limited chemical shift dispersion. The developed methods can also be applied to large deuterated RNAs. Keywords: NMR spectroscopy , Direct carbon , detection , RNA
- Direct observation of the temperature-induced melting process of the Salmonella fourU RNA thermometer at base-pair resolution (2010)
- In prokaryotes, RNA thermometers regulate a number of heat shock and virulence genes. These temperature sensitive RNA elements are usually located in the 5'-untranslated regions of the regulated genes. They repress translation initiation by base pairing to the Shine–Dalgarno sequence at low temperatures. We investigated the thermodynamic stability of the temperature labile hairpin 2 of the Salmonella fourU RNA thermometer over a broad temperature range and determined free energy, enthalpy and entropy values for the base-pair opening of individual nucleobases by measuring the temperature dependence of the imino proton exchange rates via NMR spectroscopy. Exchange rates were analyzed for the wild-type (wt) RNA and the A8C mutant. The wt RNA was found to be stabilized by the extraordinarily stable G14–C25 base pair. The mismatch base pair in the wt RNA thermometer (A8–G31) is responsible for the smaller cooperativity of the unfolding transition in the wt RNA. Enthalpy and entropy values for the base-pair opening events exhibit linear correlation for both RNAs. The slopes of these correlations coincide with the melting points of the RNAs determined by CD spectroscopy. RNA unfolding occurs at a temperature where all nucleobases have equal thermodynamic stabilities. Our results are in agreement with a consecutive zipper-type unfolding mechanism in which the stacking interaction is responsible for the observed cooperativity. Furthermore, remote effects of the A8C mutation affecting the stability of nucleobase G14 could be identified. According to our analysis we deduce that this effect is most probably transduced via the hydration shell of the RNA.

The MK chairman is unpopular among AFC fans after being accused of cashing in when buying the club after it was moved to Milton Keynes in 2003.
AFC chairman Erik Samuelson will not acknowledge Winkelman at Sunday's FA Cup second-round match at Stadium MK and will snub the chance to sit in the directors' box.
But Winkelman does not think he has done anything wrong, as he said in The Sun: "Look, I do understand that on this special occasion, this first meeting, that they would rather sit with their own supporters.
"If there is a replay, I will do exactly the same.
"I obviously apologise for the difficulties I caused at the beginning. But I've got nothing to be ashamed of.
"What I wanted to do back then was to provide a solution to a problem.
"And I think the solution we have come up with in Milton Keynes is pretty phenomenal."

Sasha here, Bratzies, and I had such a great time watching all the amazing ladies at the Golden Globes this month! It was so great to see women like Jessica Chastain and Jennifer Lawrence win for some INCREDIBLE performances, and I got so see my favorite singer, Adele, win for "Skyfall!" I was so thrilled to see her crazy good song in the new James Bond film get an award, I actually screamed!
I decided to read up on a few of the winning ladies after the Awards, and found out that so many of them have taken some pretty amazing chances and stances in their lives. Jessica Chastain, for example, is a strong vegan and anti-animal cruelty activist, inspired by her mother, who was a vegan chef. Jennifer Lawrence graduated from high school two years early with a 3.9 average in order to begin a career in acting. Adele originally wanted to specialize in talent scouting and hoped to launch other people's careers before her music was discovered on a friend's MySpace page. These women are so much more than the glamor and glitz of Hollywood, it blows my mind!
What are some of the chances and stances you take? Where do you think your passions will ultimately take you?
Catch you later, Bratzies!

If Apple goes to a 4-inch iPhone, which way would you prefer they get there?
While it seems increasingly likely Apple will be going with a bigger, close to 4-inch iPhone 5 screen, and that that screen will be close to a 16:9 aspect ratio (making it taller but not wider). However, until we see Tim Cook or Phil Schiller (or dare we hope, Jony Ive?) hold it up on stage, we still have time to dream.
Rather than go over all the options again here, I'll point you to Rene's excellent post on the 4-inch iPhone from a few days ago. Give it a look, then come back here and vote on which 4-inch screen option you'd most like Apple to go with? 2:3 at 960x640 stretched? 2:3 at 1920x1280 stretched? 9:5 at 640 x 1136 taller? 2:3 at 1092x728 bigger? 16:9 at 1280x720 bigger and taller? 3:4 at 1024x768 bigger and taller? Or do you deeply, truly still hope Apple sticks with the 3.5-inch iPhone that brought them to the dance in the first place?

If Apple goes to a 4-inch iPhone, which way would you prefer they get there?
What's the point of your whining? Your just bitching just to hear yourself bitch. Let us fanboys read what we want to read and get off our site.
Who the heck is a fan here but yourself? Its all about product usefulness, ease, innovation, and practicality. You're one of those sad people who'd worship apple if they created a device in the shape and look of feces. I want a screen at least 4.5 inches. If not, I'm getting something else. I might get the 5 and sell it on Craigslist for several hundred more than I paid for it to some pathetic early adopter.
I can tell you have never held a Galaxy Nexus. The screen is huge but the phone doesn't feel large in the hands partially due to the curved glass and how thin the phone is. I can easily use one hand to operate it and it has a 4.65 inch display. No amount of words coming from me will convince you though, you just have to play with one.
It doesn't feel large in the hand until you try to use your thumb to reach for something on the far end of the screen. I have a 4S and a Galaxy Nexus, and between the two I much prefer a too-small screen to a too-large one that could cause me to drop the phone while I'm reaching for the notification bar.
That's what she said.
Yay finally people agree 16:9 is the right way to go now lets do this Apple the only ones that want the same screen size are the ones that just bought the last iphone lol
what if it's 16:9 but instead of there now being extra screen real estate that's always available it has a galaxy nexus flow to it. what if the extended screen replaced the home button and the whole screen "clicked" like a magic pad or macbook. this "galaxy nexus" type area would then disappear when video was being played or if you went into full screen mode for supported applications. a clickable screen has to be possible since it exists in something as slim as the macbook air and magic pad. just a wild guess.
9:5 at 640 x 1136 taller 7.29% (53 votes)
The reason why the iPhone is the best mobile device out there in the market is because Steve Jobs gave us the BEST form factor there is. By all means improve everything else but leave the form factor as is. If I want anything else I can get a cheap 'Droid' abomination anytime I want, but why would I?
I have an HTC Rezound which has a 4.3 inch 1280x720 screen. It's a 16:9 and is a really nice size for me. The screen is big enough to to read and surf the web on while still being pocketable. The pixel density on this phone is actually higher than the iPhone. A 4 inch iPhone with the same resolution would be spectacular.
4:3 1024x768. It'd be a nice change.
BTW, Georgia - we're job-mates. I'm a therapist, too; and, subsequently, I use my iPhone ALL the time for scheduling and whatnot.
Superb page and additionally simple to make sure you figure out justification. Exactly how can Document keep performing obtaining concur to make sure you publish element for the document into my approaching e-newsletter? Getting correct credit scores in your direction all the journalist and additionally backlink to website won't deemed a dilemma.
I am thinking that the next iPhone might switch to a 16:9 aspect ratio and grow vertically, but not horizontally. I also might venture a guess that if an iPad Mini shows up this year, it too will have the same 16:9 aspect ratio, although a different resolution.
Although unlikely, I also might not be surprised if at a certain point, the iPad also switches ratios. Yes, maybe it might not be as comfortable for reading, but if over time every iOS device consolidates to this aspect ratio, it would work really well. iOS might be able to always scale iPhone or iPad apps to any future resolutions required for different screen sizes while maintaining "Retina" ppi.
Oh, and it also would nicely match the 16:9 ratio of a future iTelevision. How easy that any photo or video taken with any device would look the same on all devices.
Or maybe they are winging it.
If the new iPhone screen changes to 16:9 aspect ratio and grow vertically, but not horizontally, it is going to be a fail for Apple. As a developer I have no idea what kind of solution are they thinking for those millions of applications/games which must be re-designed.
Keeping the 3:2 aspect ratio with doubling the pixels(1920x1280) at 4" is looking like a better idea.
And also, tall phone=ugly phone.
2:3 is still the way to go because developers don't have to redesign all their apps 19201280 would be the nicest thing to do. But then they have to use the new IGZO screens to get that resolution @ a high contrast and brightness level. If they keep IPS-LCD then they would go to 1092728
I don't understand all the talk of fragmentation I've been reading...Android is fragmented so badly because there are HUNDREDS of phones to account for. Apple going to it's iPhone screen change isn't really a big deal. If developers are going to have real trouble with this, they need to look at getting a new job.
I have to agree. A change like this is bound to happen, if not to the display, than something else. All devs know, at some point, you'll be making changes to you code as your platform advances. If you can get more screen real estate in the same or smaller package (and things look just as good, visually, or better), then it stands to be a good thing for both devs and consumers alike.
Funny how the one that absolutely will not be chosen is the most popular, and yet when the iPhone is released, those same people will slather praise on it as if it was supposed to be that way all along.
I might be able to add a second timeout so that if you dont slide it within x seconds it goes back to sleep. I'll look into it.
