    Kukui nut necklaces

    See I am a fan of kooky necklaces.... I love my kukui nut necklace and heaps of my friends have said they like it.... all of them UTS communications students HAHA. Maybe it's a faculty wide thing... it's so funny how the certain communications degrees attract certain types of people. E.g. I...

    Is ipod the best? Plus ipod and sound recording?

    Tape recorders aren't good enough for radio because it is too difficult to get the recordings in to the digital editing software from cassettes. We have mini disc recorders at uni and we use them for radio.... but that involves hiring them, and often there are parts missing or they may be...

    Is ipod the best? Plus ipod and sound recording?

    Yeah I'm only interested in voice recording... basically interviews for journalism that are of a decent enough quality so I could use them in radio stories. So I would have to install linux on it to get broadcast quality voice recording? Is installing linux on it difficult... would it mess...

    Is ipod the best? Plus ipod and sound recording?

    OK. I want an ipod, and I am currently deciding if the reason why I want an ipod is because of Apple's brilliant marketing campign or the fact that they are really good. I stupidly last year rushed out and bought a Phillips 1GB MP3 player just a month before the prices of ipods etc dropped...

    2005 UTS INFO DAY - 27th August

    Does anyone feel the need to actually walk along the red carpet even though the space around it is free.... I found myself doing it subconciously today!

    "You are putting your ethical stance before the law".

    I guess it comes down to the decision in the contempt trial, if it is just a slap on the wrist then it is all good, but if the journalists do get jailed, that really really sucks.

    Another lame-ass idea by Nelson

    So Nelson wants everyone (especially those darn muslims) to learn about Simpson and his donkey? What drugs is Nelson smoking.... has he come up with any ideas that have been informed and/or rational and/or worth spending government money and time on in the past few months. There are also a...

    "You are putting your ethical stance before the law".

    There is the risk though if journalists knew they would have absolute protection in the courts so they didn't have to reveal any sources that they would not be as careful in agreeing to discretion and confidentiality. There can be a negetive side to confidential sources- behind the mask of...

    How many jobs have you had?

    Yeah I know that can be the case, so often I tailor my resume to a certain job e.g. place more emphasis on the retail positions I have had when I am going for a retail job and don't mention some of the hospitality jobs I have done, vice versa for a hospitality job. I'm pretty concious of that...

    People who work at coles

    For me my register training was working through some computer program on the register which explained how to use it.... then I was left on my own. I was on express though for the first shift so I was next to someone I could ask if I needed help. But I found it pretty easy, I had used "old...

    "You are putting your ethical stance before the law".

    I think this is another problem related to journalism's position as a "quasi profession". You don't have to be a member of MEAA or agree to the code of ethics to practice as a journalist.... there is no standardized training etc. So it makes it more difficult for legislators to make rules to...

    "You are putting your ethical stance before the law".

    I'm so stoked I got a hold of Chris Warren today, I have seen him/heard him on so many radio programs and Tv programs talking about this, yet I managed to get an interview.... yay, so rare! I think he thought I was from the ABC lol..... The 7.30 report story was really interesting, really...

    "You are putting your ethical stance before the law".

    I did a radio story on this today for 2SER and I spoke to Christopher Warren from the MEAA about this.... he was really interesting, and he pointed out that there is some protection for journalists in the NSW Evidence Act however most other states have no protection. He also pointed out that...
