I attended the University of Portsmouth ABC v Allcomers a few weeks ago (still need to sort out the  photos!)  I helped the boxing club get photo's for their award dinner, Societies Carnival was a huge success and I still haven't got all the pictures sorted. More recently I have actually done some uni work so the media stuff I am involved in has taken a back seat slightly. 

The last edition of Pugwash News will be out shortly and its worth taking home with you for a read. The last issue of Pugwash will be out as well.

The web will get a lot of content added in the last few weeks of term. We will be getting all the content from the last few issues and from the magazine up starting next Tuesday. Current members of the web team and people wanting to get involved should contact webeditor@upsu.net.

We are really interested in people staying in Portsmouth over the summer as this is when we will be getting the content up so if you want to get involved with the web team next year and you are staying in Portsmouth over the summer get in touch and we will train you and you will be very experienced before the new year even starts! 

Good luck in your exams everyone.

I would write more but im busy adding content to USPU.net from Issue 12 and 13 of Pugwash News.

Issue 13 looks fantastic so pick up your copy from around campus now distribution takes a few days but you will always be able to find it in the Students Union.

I dropped off quite a few in Angelsea on Tuesday, 

I encurrage everyone to read the paper and pass them around to their friends. 

This story has been popular with students with a lot of comments being made by students concerned about their phones, its really pleasing to see that the comment feature is being used this well keep it up.

I have a contract with Dot Mobile and this story is of great interest, if there are any developments, Pugwash will report on them.

My friend and the guy I spent a long time campaigning for has won.

Steve Topazio has won Education and Representation. A strong campaign led to this victory.

Well done to Tom for getting MAPO - Your the best man for the job

Also well done to Caz Bird for getting Student Support your campaign was very active, Jaffa for running a good presidential campaign. Ella for winning SADO. and Darbs for being reelected as sports officer.

I  spent the morning campaigning for steve and spent the afternoon resting in the sabb office before going out with a camera and taking pictures @ the elections.

Commiserations to those who didn't get in, particularly Jenny, Ben and Sarah.

Have a good easter 

We add the content of your favourite publications Pugwash News and Pugwash Magazine to our award winning website. 

To get involved with the Web Team please email myself the Web Editor

Its easy to get involved and getting involved with the student union looks great on your CV.

Remember Issue 11 of Pugwash News is out now 

When getting in touch please include a contact number and whether you have Facebook

I have found a passion for news writing and two of my stories are in the paper and they will both be online from tuesday.

Remember to get voting in the Sabb Elections that are happening over the next few weeks. 

When we got to the "Fire" we found out it was a training exercise but it was still interesting to watch. Taking photos of Fire engines is really hard because of the reflexive strips the flash makes them extra bright. 

The way round it I found out was to change the ISO on the camera and use no flash the added disadvantage was I had to keep the camera very still . See a related news report on UPSU for better pics by Alex.

This was one of my best ones it was a little dark so a bit of fiddling in photoshop made it better if a little grainy.

I then shot off down to Southsea to take more pictures for Pugwash News, thanks to Pete for the bike and for the card reader without you I couldn't have done it.

I note taking a USB lead into Uni bring the correct one or its a right pain in the arse.

Appolgises to anyone expecting the march article in the next issue of Pugwash News we couldn't make the News Deadline but it will be published online very soon with all the pictures as well.

I took over 100 so if you were on the march I have your picture.

I'd like to welcome Kevin and Pete into the Web Team

If anyone else would like to join our ranks please get in touch 

I really enjoyed covering the event and would welcome the chance to do it again.

Time to start adding some of the features to the website now 

Myself and Jacob the News Editor are working with our MAPO Alex Harries on a categorisation of the website and it will be a massive improvement on an already award winning website.

We still need more people to help get the content online, its both rewarding and looks great on your CV. Full Training will be provided and I have completed the STAND Train the Trainer course so I know how to train

And don't forget that issue 9 of Pugwash News is out now minus a front cover

If anyone wants to help out with the Web Team please get in touch
