☆ Don't get creative with your resume, says ex-Nvidia recruiter—color is 'a little gimmicky'
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-28 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

For instance, while the standard resume is written in black font, should you consider accent colors like green or purple? Overall, she says, when it comes to your resume, "make it boring," adding, "no colors, no charts, no graphs, no pictures." 'Nobody really wants a creative accountant'When it comes to a colorful font, experts agree it really depends on the industry you're in. Keep it to Arial, Times New Roman or Calibri, 11-point, black font on a white or cream-colored resume. If you've chosen a color other than black, try printing out your resume to see if it's legible before using it.

☆ Karl Wallinger, Who Sang With World Party and the Waterboys, Dies at 66
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-12 | by ( Clay Risen | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: 1 min

Karl Wallinger, a Welsh singer-songwriter who helped define college radio in the 1980s and ’90s as a member of the Waterboys and the founder of World Party, died on Sunday at his home in Hastings, England. His daughter, Nancy Zamit, confirmed the death but did not provide a cause. Mr. Wallinger suffered a brain aneurysm in 2001 that forced him to stop performing for several years. Following on the heels of the post-punk, new wave and new romantic movements of the early 1980s, Mr. Wallinger embodied something of a throwback to the classical pop and folk styles of an earlier era, with music and lyrics influenced by the Beatles and Bob Dylan. Though he rejected the label “retro,” onstage he looked like a stylish hippie, with long stringy hair and tinted round glasses that would have fit in at Woodstock.

CNN —The most anticipated season of “The Crown” has arrived, and no one’s losing much sleep over the Queen this time. One of the many things that captivated viewers when “The Crown” arrived in 2016 was its cinematic scale. The lines between episodes one and three of season six, by contrast, are impossible to draw. As “The Crown” tells it, Al-Fayed’s relentless campaign to see his son Dodi and Diana engaged and thus secure British citizenship is almost as culpable for their deaths as the crash itself. Diana’s final night in Paris is rendered as the fatal culmination of Al-Fayed’s engineering of their relationship, and his pressure on Dodi to propose.

It’s been about a decade since Brown’s research popularized the term “gray divorce” to describe this phenomenon – something that used to be a rarity, but now has become much more common. They dubbed it “the gray divorce revolution.”And it’s still going strong, both for celebrities and everyday people. Rather than “gray divorce,” Myres says she prefers the term “silver splitters,” because it also alludes to the silver lining of starting fresh, no matter how old you are. Financial difficulties after “gray divorce” are a problem Brown says she and other researchers have been studying, too. In the first couple of years after a “gray divorce,” Brown says, about 50% of people end up living alone.
