If you’re a non-U.K. graduate and you’re intrested in a paid research position in the area of computer graphics and cultural visualisation (including HCI and user interaction design) there are two positions available at the University of Brighton. More details at http://www.chiron-training.org/, but if you want the details of these specific positions email me. Do it soon as the closing date for applications is 15th September 2006.
In other news I scored a “scintillating” try during a rugby tournament at the weekend. We’re being a little generous with our superlatives I think, but it wasn’t a particularly bad try. I was on the wing and we had an overlap from the back of a ruck (I think, can’t quite remember). The ball came out quickly and went straight down the line. I got the ball just outside the 22 about 5 metres from touch. I ran through one tackle and got the ball down as I was being tackled just over the try line. I should’ve dived 
But it’s not a bad outing for my first game for the first team (I normally play seconds). The trials for the first team are on Saturday and I hope to do myself justice and at the least secure a place on the second team, I’ll be disappointed with less.
Nice one on the rugby front, your ribs must be in bits?
My ribs are fine. Pulled a muscle in my foot though. Should be back training tonight.
Great article. There’s a lot of good information here, though I did want to let you know something – I am running Redhat with the circulating beta of Firefox, and the layout of your blog is kind of flaky for me. I can understand the articles, but the navigation doesn’t work so well.
