Morgan Stanley's resurgence is bad news if you're a banker who likes working for a boss who likes getting his hands dirty, rather than one partial to intricate strategy presentations. Where John Mack, the ex-bond trader who tried reinvigorating Morgan Stanley's trading business failed, James Gorman - the ex-McKinsey & Co consultant, seems to have succeeded.
Gorman had a plan. And Gorman's plan is paying off. In the second quarter, it wasn't just Morgan Stanley's equities business that did very well, but Morgan Stanley's everything. "The revenue beat was pretty much across the board, with investment banking, trading and commissions all doing a bit better than expected," Chris Kotowski, an Oppenheimer & Co. analyst, wrote in a report yesterday.
Reuters says Gorman's plan for Morgan Stanley's equities business was known as 'project velocity.' It involved moving servers closer to exchanges and deploying specialist sales staff to deal with clients. In yesterday's conference call, Gorman said equities had benefited from "research driven content, market insight, and state of the art trading technology." Thanks to the improvements, Morgan Stanley now ranks second in the hierarchy of equities firms which U.S. clients most like to do business with. One year ago, it ranked fifth.
John Mack, the charismatic ex-trader who preceded Gorman, spent years trying to reinvigorate Morgan Stanley's trading business without much success. Now Gorman, the rationalist, has breathed new life into the business. Charisma is no longer required - the new banking CEO is, above all, sensible. Antony Jenkins at Barclays and Michael Corbat at Citigroup are of a similar process-driven ilk, although neither man has Gorman's McKinsey pedigree. "I think things are pretty rational right now," Gorman said yesterday. "It is a sober environment that we operate in. The leadership of the banks, all of whom I know pretty well, are very sober quality professional people. I don't see a lot of holes at the large institutions in terms of rational behavior."

IPTMA also expands globally with office openings in Hong Kong and Dubai
SYDNEY, 22 August, 2016 – The International Payment & Transaction Monitoring Association (IPTMA) today announced a new partnership with Thomson Reuters to provide subscribers with a global risk management and screening solution (World-Check) channeled through IPTMA's recently launched platform, Gilante.
The IPTMA unique platform provides banks and financial institutions with a sophisticated, yet easily integrated and user friendly tool to manage transactional and reputational risk. Gilante also includes the bonus facility of undertaking thorough AML, CTF and PEP due diligence on their client base through utilizing Thomson Reuters World-Check. Clients are also afforded the facility to store policies, procedures and transactional information to be available on request to the organisations that facilitate transactions – thereby providing the transparency that institutions worldwide demand.
World-Check is Thomson Reuters' source of intelligence on politically-exposed persons (PEPs) and heightened risk individuals and organizations globally. World-Check data helps customers comply with legislation and regulations for preventing anti-money laundering, threat financing, anti-corruption, organized crime and third party risk.
Thyer McCaffery, founder of IPTMA, said, "Gilante is a world-first tool that allows regulated businesses to be proactive in the battle against money laundering and terrorism financing by putting up a united front. All IPTMA subscribers are able to populate the Gilante patented macro transactional monitoring tool to reflect their risk appetite. By monitoring transactional activity across our global subscriber base, criminal activity will be impeded. In the long run, Gilante transaction monitoring will deter criminal activity through the IPTMA subscriber base."
"IPTMA launched in 2014 and while our initial focus has been in Australia, our reach has quickly expanded. We're proud to announce negotiations have been finalised to open offices in Hong Kong – headed by Joachim Cimmerbeck (formerly head of sales at Deutsche Bank) and in Dubai headed by Toni Morgan (specialist in compliance, assurance and corporate governance) with a future office and platform roll-out also planned in London" he added.
Daryl Sisson, Managing Director, Pacific at Thomson Reuters, said, "As regulatory demands continue to increase and the global focus on anti-money laundering intensifies, organizations are faced with the burden of assessing, monitoring and disclosing risk while trying to remain competitive. Thomson Reuters' industry-leading partnership with the IPTMA is an exciting new step in understanding and combating the global financial crime chain."
About IPTMA
Established in 2014, IPTMA provides financial institutions with an all-inclusive platform facilitating easy and effective access to comprehensive, relevant data on transactions – dramatically reducing risk levels to banks, regulated entities and national security by collating accessible information on activity in one place.
IPTMA delivers a succinct yet comprehensive transfer summary providing the ability to navigate individual components of a transaction to demonstrate that all entities have passed stringent security checks.
As an independent body, IPTMA is a conduit of information between regulated entities and their banking partners, allowing full disclosure of host clients and enabling a comprehensive study of secondary clients involved in a transaction. This feature has the added benefit of highlighting how regulated entities adhere to the requirements demanded by industry regulators and have already passed through a rigorous identity and safety procedure.

Human evolution is speeding up, indicates new genomic researchDecember 11th, 2007 - 1:02 pm ICT by admin
Washington, Dec 11 (ANI): A new research has indicated that human evolution is speeding up instead of slowing down or halting, indicating that humans on different continents are becoming increasingly different.
The research was conducted by a team led by John Hawks, an anthropologist from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
"We used a new genomic technology to show that humans are evolving rapidly, and that the pace of change has accelerated a lot in the last 40,000 years, especially since the end of the Ice Age roughly 10,000 years ago," says research team leader Henry Harpending, professor of anthropology at the University of Utah.
The researchers built a case that human evolution has accelerated by comparing genetic data with what the data should look like if human evolution had been constant:
If evolution had been fast and constant for a long time, there should be many recently evolved genes that have spread to everyone. Yet, the study revealed many genes still becoming more frequent in the population, indicating a recent evolutionary speedup.
Next, the researchers examined the history of human population size on each continent. They found that mutation patterns seen in the genome data were consistent with the hypothesis that evolution is faster in larger populations.
"Rapid population growth has been coupled with vast changes in cultures and ecology, creating new opportunities for adaptation," the study says. "The past 10,000 years have seen rapid skeletal and dental evolution in human populations, as well as the appearance of many new genetic responses to diet and disease," it adds.
The research estimates that positive selection just in the past 5,000 years alone - around the period of the Stone Age - has occurred at a rate roughly 100 times higher than any other period of human evolution. Many of the new genetic adjustments are occurring around changes in the human diet brought on by the advent of agriculture, and resistance to epidemic diseases that became major killers after the growth of human civilizations.
"In evolutionary terms, cultures that grow slowly are at a disadvantage, but the massive growth of human populations has led to far more genetic mutations," said Hawks. "And every mutation that is advantageous to people has a chance of being selected and driven toward fixation. What we are catching is an exceptional time," he added.
The research team analyzed data from the International HapMap Project, short for haplotype mapping. This project is working to catalog genetic similarities and differences in human beings by studying genes from distinct sample populations around the globe.
"Because human population grew from several million at the end of the Ice Age to 6 billion now, more favored new genes have emerged and evolution has speeded up, both globally and among continental groups of people," said Harpending. "We have to understand genetic change in order to understand history," he added.
But according to Harpending, the speedup in human evolution is more or less a temporary state of affairs.
"That's because of our new environments since the dispersal of modern humans 40,000 years ago and especially since the invention of agriculture 12,000 years ago. That changed our diet and changed our social systems," said Harpending. "If you suddenly take hunter-gatherers and give them a diet of corn, they frequently get diabetes. We're still adapting to that. Several new genes we see spreading through the population are involved with helping us prosper with high-carbohydrate diet," he added. (ANI)

I bought two tickets from Fayetteville to NY but I made a Mistake and I had to change it to Miami, Fl. I knew, according with the web page that I had to pay a fee (200 per ticket) because of the change but I did the math and I understood that changing the ticket was the best option and when I made the check out it was clear the total amount considering the difference between the old and the new tickets plus the fee.
What I didn't know (because there is no information in the web page about that) that I had to pay the old tickets also (not only the difference as appear in the check out).
If I would have known about this, with a simple math exercise that I made I would have realized that this option was the most expensive and I would have preferred to buy two new tickets, but again the information in the web page and the confirmation step of the transaction doesn't say anything about this and what anybody could understand is that there is no payment for the old tickets just for the difference. By the way, the tickets were non refundable, but I was not returning the tickets I was changing the flight.
After three complains by email with the company I have no answer.
I feel cheated by this company because the information they give is not clear and it doesn't make any sense. Very sad and no one can help me to recover my money
Monetary Loss: $258.

Terms of Service
The $460 is correct. When you change a flight you pay the difference in the fare between the old and new ($60.00) plus the $400.00 change fee.
The $60 is because the new flight you picked is more expensive than the one you had originally. Because you paid for the original flight ($257.60), you get a credit against the higher cost of the new flight ($317.60) Thus, altogether you paid $317.60 for the new flight (the original $257.60 payment plus the $80.00 difference).
Separate and aside from this, you paid $400 to change your two tickets. That is what happens when you buy a non-refundable ticket.
Such tickets, because they are cheap, have restrictions on them such as no flight changes without a fee. Thus your flight will cost you $717.60 with the change fee, which is correct.

I don't! And i refrain from giving them to my children too, because i know that many vegetables outside are not washed prior to cooking.
And when you are at home, does everyone takes an adequate amount of vegetables?
Argh! I confess!! Though I really love eating vegetables, but in our home now, the only green vegetable that i cook is broccoli, and very recently, the lady fingers. I usually cooked all sorts of mushrooms, carrots, sweet corn, potatoes and the eggplant. I find vegetables very time consuming to wash and prepared. Having the mission of cooking and serving meals within a hour for my attention grabbing children, i made do with easy to prepare vegetables. :(
Very recently, Yakult has launched Yakult Health Foods in Singapore and I was invited to the debut launched!
|Debut Launch of Yakult Health Food in Singapore, distributed by Abeille d'Or
|A wide range of Yakult Health Food is now available in Singapore
It's interesting to know that Yakult Health Foods has powdered form of Aojiru, which means juice made of green vegetables! They have two types, the Maroyake Kale and Watashi no Aojiru (Barley young leaves).
|We were given a walkthrough on the cultivation process of Yakult Health Foods' Aojiru
I was given a box of Maroyaka Kale to bring home to try and review. Maroyaka Kale, a rich and grassy green juice, is in powder form, made from premium Kale extract. It serves to provide Kale's nutrients as part of our vegetable intake.
If you do not know, Kale is a type of vegetable which is considered an original species of cabbage and broccoli. Extracted from Wikipedia:
"Kale is very high in beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, and rich in calcium. Kale is a source of two carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin. Kale, as with broccoli and other brassicas, contains sulforaphane (particularly when chopped or minced), a chemical with potent anti-cancer properties. Boiling decreases the level of sulforaphane; however, steaming, microwaving, or stir frying does not result in significant loss. Along with other brassica vegetables, kale is also a source of indole-3-carbinol, a chemical which boosts DNA repair in cells and appears to block the growth of cancer cells. Kale has been found to contain a group of resins known as bile acid sequestrants, which have been shown to lower cholesterol and decrease absorption of dietary fat. Steaming significantly increases these bile acid binding properties."
You should also read the "19 Unbelievable Health Benefits of Kale" to learn why Kale is being called "the new beef", "the queen of greens" and "a nutritional powerhouse."
|A box of Maroyaka Kale comes with a 30 supply of Aojiru "Green Juice"
It's actually not easy to buy fresh and nice Kale in Singapore, and you need time to wash & prepare the fresh kale for cooking, which i seriously lacked of time. So, i like the idea of drinking it in a very conveniently packed powdered form!
As I am still breastfeeding, I had to check if Kale can be taken. It's always better to consult a doctor if you are unsure. After taking this drink for 3 days, i learnt a new benefit of taking Kale that little people knew - it actually boost milk supply! I am now taking it on alternate days to supplement additional nutrients to my body to support my lifestyle!
|You only need 100ml of water to mix with the powder
|I added it to Yakult drink too!
I find the taste of this green juice like taking raw vegetables. You can actually mix it into any beverage that you like, with recommended temperature of 80 deg celsius and below. One recommended recipe is to take mix the powder with lukewarm water, then add your desired amount of honey and lemon for a refreshing nice juice!
The complete range of Yakult Health Foods are available at Guardian Pharmacy outlets with prices starting from S$43.90 to S$119.90. The Maroyaka Kale is currently retailing at an introductory price of S$79.90 from now till 30th September 2014, after which the usual price of S$87.90 applies.
Sharing with you a interesting and informative video on Yakult Health Foods' Aojiru cultivation process:
For more information, please visit http://www.abeilledor.sg/ or join their Facebook Page.
Disclaimer: I was invited by AT Marketing Consultancy (www.atmc.com.sg) to attend the Yakult Health Food Launch and received a box of Maroyaka Kale by Yakult Health Food for review purposes and is compensated for this blog post. All opinions and images are my own, unless otherwise stated.

We love to host Spirit Nights at Uncle Maddio's. Let us help you raise some dough! We are proud to support the many wonderful organizations in the Rogers community. Hosting a Spirit Night with us is a simple (and delicious) way for your organization or school to raise money.
How Does an Uncle Maddio's Fundraiser Work?
• A night is selected and community members are invited to eat at the restaurant during a specific time window, such as between 5pm and 8pm.
• We will donate 10% of the event's proceeds back to your organization from guests who indicate that they are there for Spirit Night.
• We typically host Spirit Nights on Tuesdays.
Working with Uncle Maddio's
• Give us a call at 479-636-1880.
• Try to make contact in mid-afternoon, between our lunch and dinner rush. That way, you are more likely to connect with our manager who has time to work with you on your request.
• Select a few dates and run those past us. The more lead time the better, but we will try our best to accommodate your schedule.
Planning the Event
• Once you have booked a date with us, it is time to plan a successful event.
• When planning, seek a few volunteers to help with promotion and get a few folks to volunteer to be on-site helpers the night of the event. It really helps to have at least one group representative present throughout the evening to thank your guests for attending.
• To help make the event more exciting, try creating a theme for it or tie it to a specific holiday, fundraising goal, or time of year.
Conducting Outreach
• Spreading the word about the event is key to the night's success. We will create a Facebook post alerting our followers of your event.
• It's important to send out an invitation that promotes the event and explains that this a great way to help your organization or school. If possible, tie it to a specific fundraising project. For example, you can write, "Come enjoy a meal at Uncle Maddio's and help raise funds for our new playground."
• Market the event either through email or social media (or both) to make sure your community knows about the event.
• Be sure to note the date and hours the event will run so guests know that they have some flexibility and that they don't have to adhere to a rigid schedule.
Enjoying the Big Day
• On the day of the event, give us a call to confirm your plans.
• Send out a last-minute reminder to your community via social channels.
• Arrive at the restaurant ahead of the start time and check in with the manager.
• Take fun photos and enjoy the event.
Creating a successful Spirit Night is just one of the many ways we have worked with local groups on fundraising events. Ask us about our catering menu if you are interested in hosting a party or event at a location of your choosing.

With both teams coming off of statement victories on Sunday, the Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots will meet for the first time this season on Thursday.
Obviously, Tom Brady is always at the center of the opposing defense's game plan, and this week is no different. Brady has shredded every defense he's come across to the tune of 16 touchdowns and just one interception.
Dolphins linebacker Chris McCain caught some attention on Monday for sporting a #CrushBrady Twitter avatar, which he's supposedly had for a year.
More from FoxSports
Rob Gronkowski was asked about the picture, and he deferred the question to his quarterback.
"You've got to ask Tom. ... I think that'd be a penalty," Gronkowski said. "If he gives us 15 yds, we'll take it."
Yes, grabbing Brady's head and squeezing it with both hands would be a penalty, but McCain would (hopefully) never do that in a game. And while he's caught some heat for having it as his avatar, he fiercely defended it with a series of tweets.
Regardless of when McCain made it his avatar, it probably wasn't the smartest move to give Brady even more motivation heading into Thursday night's game.

Garden Wisdom – 365 Days – Entered in 2018 ATAI Book Award Contest
5 Stars
Cheryl Wilfong
In Garden Wisdom – 365 Days, author Cheryl Wilfong using stories and metaphor to share insights to help readers view mindfulness and perspective differently. She takes the readers on a journey from the first day of spring, March 21st, to the following first day of spring. There are daily snippets of wisdom and insight. On any given day of the year, the reader could flip to that page and get a dose of powerful wisdom or the reader could follow day-by-day from start to finish.
The daily wisdom in Wilfong's Garden Wisdom – 365 Days is not overly deep. Yet, it offers readers a chance to ponder it on their own and let it flow in and out of their own personal perspectives. Wilfong's style of writing allows the messages to flow gracefully through the readers' minds. The pictures are black and white, which is a slight drawback. This almost takes away from the true colorfulness of the beautiful insight shared in the writing. Furthermore, said pictures are grainy and look almost photocopied. The cover has a colorful feel, but the imagery inside is not nearly as appealing.
A very well-written book, Garden Wisdom – 365 Days is broken down into simple digestible daily bits of wisdom. In just a few moments, readers can flip to the current day and read a short snippet that is powerful enough to take them on a deep and evolutionary inner journey if they're interested in taking it that far. Yet, Cheryl Wilfong wrote her insight in such an easy-to-read and brief way that readers can just take a minute or two to read that day's insight and let it settle into their soul all on its own if they'd rather take that route. Most interesting is that Garden Wisdom – 365 Days encourages gardeners to explore beyond just the concepts and blend Wilfong's concepts with their joy of tending their gardens.

Darren Aronofsky Makes Pee-Pee Joke for George Clooney
Doesn't go over that well.
Admittedly, if we had occasion to directly address George Clooney, we would probably say something weird and awkward, so know that in relaying this anecdote we're more commiserating with Darren Aronofsky than harshing on him. But Darren Aronofsky said something weird and awkward to George Clooney! At the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, Aronofsky — whose Black Swan was the smash of last year's Venice, and who is this year's jury president — had some welcoming words for Clooney, whose Ides of March just opened the festival this year.

Remedy for body lice
Body lice are small insects about the size of a sesame seed and they live in clothing and bedding and crawls on the skin several times every day to feed on blood. They are usually found around the neck, armpits, shoulders, groin and the waist which are the areas that touch the skin.
Body lice are usually common in crowded places and especially in unhygienic living conditions such as shelters, refugee camps and homeless people. Body lice can spread diseases and trigger epidemics. Body lice can cause severe itchiness and make the skin peel and increases the risk to infection. Body lice are similar to head lice but they have different habits. Head lice live in the hair and feed on scalp while body lice can be found in clothes and bedding and usually on the seams of clothing where they lay their eggs or nits. Body lice infestation is usually prevalent in the winter season, people tend to wear several layers of clothing for extended periods and have more contact with the clothing of infested people.
- Not taking a bath for several days
- Reusing dirty clothes
- Using infected personal belonging and clothes of other people
- Wash all bedding and towels that are already used since body lice can hide and thrive in old towels and bedding that were used by an infected person. Wash them using hot water at least 130 degrees F or 54.4 degrees C and dry these items in dryer that is set on high heat more than 130 degrees F for at least 30 minutes. Avoid mixing the bedding and towels with other materials to prevent spreading the body lice. Wash infected bedding, towels and clothes at least once every week.
- Take a bath regularly and wear clean clothes to prevent body lice and future problems. Take a shower or bath at least once every day, wash and clean the hair at least once every week and clean all areas of the body using soap and water.
- With a cup of milk, mix a tablespoon of coconut oil and a teaspoon of camphor. Mix well and massage this mixture all over the body for at least 30 minutes before taking a bath. This procedure eliminates body lice at a rapid rate.
- Turmeric and neem has antifungal, antibacterial and antiseptic properties that can eliminate body lice. Make a paste by grinding turmeric and 10-15 pieces of leaves of fresh neem. Mix them well to become a paste and apply all over the body and let it dry on the skin. Apply this paste at least 2-3 times every week. This method eliminates both the body lice and their eggs and lessens the itchiness of the body.
- Apply the prescribed over-the-counter pediculicides that contains pyrethrum extracts or permethrin that can be applied to the body to eliminate body lice completely.

Question about Dishwashers
The washing light is blinking, and I cannot get it to reset. The buttons on the front are, High Temp, Heat Dry, Delay Hours, and Start/Cancel. The rest of the options are on a dial. I searched the problem, but the sequences listed for other models do not match the buttons on mine. The model number is 58715182400. Any help is much appreciated- Sears will not give out the code and the service call is really $$$.
Posted by cmgpokela on
Mine is doing same thing. I've tried different button seq but got nothing. Tried turning off power still nothing
I have the same problem.
I have read many posting regarding the Kenmore 587. 15072200 going into some sort of mode where all the lights blink and even if you re-start it this doesn't help. I am having this problem also. Any help would be appreciated!
I have model number 587.1525 or 587.1625. I purchased it March of 2007. It gave us problems from the beginning. My dishwasher will halt in the middle of a wash cycle and the bottom two lights will blink next to the start/cancel button. In the past, I would continue to put it on wash several times before it completed a cycle. I've had 2 Sears repairmen out. First guy said he didn' t know what was wrong but keep a record. Second guy said it was b/c water didn't get hot quick enough. I resolved that problem. Now, my dishwasher completely stopped working altogether. It never completed the last cycle, and there is water in the bottom.
same problem on model 587.1619... light blinks "washing" but does not engage in washing.... help
stops mid-cycle, wont reset. It seems to have a mind of it's own when it works!!!
I purchased my Kenmore 587 dishwasher in March 2007 also. I have always had to turn it to heavy wash and then back to normal before the start button would work. I went to start it today and the washing button blinks every time I push start. The dishwasher will not run. I am so frustrated and have read hundreds of problems similar to mine online. This is ridiculous and there should be a recall on several of Kenmore models. I will never buy a Kenmore again. No one seems to know how to solve this problem. Can anyone help?
I found the service data sheet inside my front panel. Here is the sequence it says to use: Press the HEAT DRY and START/CANCEL pads at the same time, with the selector set to RINSE ONLY(my selector has quick rinse). The dishwasher will then step through the test cycle. Pushing the START/CANCEL pad will advance the dishwasher to the next step. I have tried this several times and it has not helped me but maybe it will help with your Kenmore 587. Good luck!
I have a solution. For Kenmore Dishwashers begining with model 587 and the flashing washing light.it will not start.
inside the front door there are two black and two white wires that lead to the handle. this connection is an on/off saftey for the door latch and if wet will short. The light is flashing because the machine thinks the door is open.
these connections on my machine are very loose. a needle nose pliers to tighten the crimps clean the prongs recconect hard reset at breaker box and you should be ready to go.

If clean light is blinking then it may be an
issue with heater circuit, door switch or wash pump, please reset the power to
the dishwasher. After, 5 minutes check if you are still getting the same error.
If yes, then it is a water heating fault. To resolve this error try pressing
this reset sequence-- Heat Dry - Normal - Heat Dry - Normal or High Temp - Air
Dry - High Temp - Air Dry or Hi Temp Scrub, energy saver dry, Hi Temp Scrub,
energy saver dry. Now let the unit run for 2-3 minutes and then you press
the Cancel/Drain button and allow it to completely drain and reset. If this
doesn't work then it's an issue with the wash pump not pumping the water past
the heater efficiently or due to lack of water to heat. Please make sure that
heater is not open circuited and is heating the water efficiently. You'll have
to check the heater using a multimeter; the meter should read between 3000 to
3300 ohms (Use multimeter on Rx1 ohm setting). If heater is fine then make sure
water pressure is optimum and fill valve is working fine. Hope this helps...
Please post back if you need more information.

'I suppose for years I was making up the numbers, but you never stop'
On a road less travelled, one that was dimly lit for long stretches, Kieran Joyce has often hankered for company or even assurance that he was progressing. Signs were few and far between on his journey towards earning his stripes as a Kilkenny hurler in a golden era for the county.
It was never going to be straightforward, not with the route Joyce took. He tried various avenues and failed, but he never stopped coming back. "There were twists and turns along the way, that's for sure," Joyce recalls now. "But that's no bad thing either."
It all began in County Laois, where Joyce lived for the first seven years of his life, with his parents commuting from work there back to the family home in Inistioge on the River Nore in south Kilkenny.
This giant of a man didn't even hold a hurley in earnest until he was 12. How many Kilkenny hurlers of any vintage could say that and still reach the top? He even dabbled in football for the county before finally forging a way into their hurling hearts.
As he hit his mid-20s it looked like the end of the trail. An All-Ireland minor finalist in 2004, he won All-Ireland under 21 medals in 2006 and 2008. But in Kilkenny those badges of honour count for little. On a team where Richie Hogan was the general, Joyce was a mere foot-soldier.
This spell co-incided with a stint with the intermediates in 2006, when his last-minute mistake in the final against Cork cost them an All-Ireland title. Joyce was said to be cumbersome in possession and went to strike a ball standing still. The Cork attack dispossessed him and struck for a winning goal. Few saw a way back for Joyce that afternoon in Fraher Field.
He took that setback as another challenge and hit the gym with relentless determination, hoping to cope with the power and attrition that define Brian Cody's training sessions if the call came. Two years on, he bounced back with many of that same intermediate team as they won their first All-Ireland since 1973. The success put him back on the map. So too did his time at University of Limerick. There he was forced to change his outlook on hurling in an attempt to make a UL team packed with mobile forwards. It was a style alien to Joyce but he gradually grasped it to win a Fitzgibbon Cup. That finally handed him an audition with Cody.
"Kieran was a very quiet, unassuming chap but he was one of the most driven lads I ever saw," says Ger Cunningham, his manager at UL. "He repeated a semester because he put hurling before college. But he was so far down the pecking order in Kilkenny when he arrived. . . I'll be honest - none of us ever thought he'd make where he is now. This may seem strange, but Kilkenny lads come to UL and they struggle to adapt to our ways. There are so many Tipp, Clare and Limerick lads who play a totally different brand of hurling. The Kilkenny lads find it hard and Joycey struggled too."
At the start of the 2011 season, Joyce was not front and centre in the thinking in UL but by the end of it they were Fitzgibbon champions and Joyce their captain. He had realised he couldn't continue hitting 80-yard clearances into a full-forward line where the players were not comfortable winning their own ball. He changed his ways.
"Eventually we had to make him captain," Cunningham recalls. "Purely for his hard work - he drove everyone on with his work ethic. At one stage he was doing too much, especially in the gym, and it was affecting his hurling. He was missing college because he was going to the gym in the mornings. He got too big. But he and David Burke from Galway made it the easiest management job I ever had. They took it on and did all the talking. Players were drawn to Joycey like a magnet."
Last year, his mental strength was evident again. Having finally made his Kilkenny championship debut in 2012 against Dublin, he set about nailing a permanent spot in the first 15, but all the prime spots were occupied - by some of the great names of hurling. It was a waiting game.
He came on early as they hammered Offaly, started the drawn game against Galway but was dropped for the replay after they conceded five goals. Once again his journey had hit rocky terrain.
"Galway broke our half-back line that day," Joyce remembers. "The goals came from our department and it's the last thing you want. And sure we had plenty of players waiting to come in. So Joey (Holden) came in there and played brilliantly all year. I was in the stands watching as we reached the All-Ireland final."
That match was drawn, and ahead of the replay, the Cats regrouped at Nowlan Park and Cody set the tone by promising there would be changes. Joyce felt invigorated again.
"It was a clean slate and Brian was kind of telling you that there was a spot on the starting 15. But all that went on training, so I really had to up it. I did that. When you're on the bench it hurts. You doubt yourself at the start but it doesn't last long. There are plenty of guys there that can't get in so you can't feel sorry for yourself, you have to get over it. I just put the head down."
Soon Joyce got a few outings on the A team at training, seized the opportunity and got back in for the replay where he squared up to 'Bonner' Maher and quietened him. He was voted man of the match. Ten years into his journey, Joyce had finally arrived. "Very few could do what he did," Cunningham notes. "Very few would have the mental strength to constantly come back."
Last year also saw Rower-Inistioge win the All-Ireland intermediate title. They hadn't featured much since Eddie Keher's time but Joyce and his brothers dragged them up from junior status. It was another landmark. Today he goes hunting his eighth All-Ireland medal across all grades - some going for a guy who was veering towards journeyman territory. "I suppose for years there I was making up the numbers in Nowlan Park when there were injuries in the squad," he admits. "But you never stop. You can't."
Although his early appearances were sporadic, management always recognised his healthy work-rate, attitude and an ability to hit the level of their sessions quickly. They admired his resilience.
"I had a lot of success at underage but was in the stands for years looking at a senior team that contained JJ (Delaney), Jackie (Tyrrell), Tommy (Walsh), 'Hogie' (Brian Hogan) and John Tennyson. The bench was so strong that you were wondering if you would even make that. How would I get into it? And no matter how much success you had at underage, those lads had the same success. And more," he says.
"It was a great time for Kilkenny. But there were times when you would be thinking 'will I ever make the cut?' Thankfully, Brian has been true to form. If you play well in club matches, and I was performing well, you will get a look-in. When you get a chance, you have to take it."
For all the meandering and the setbacks he endured, there was never a question of calling it a day. "No, I always wanted it, always knew that I wanted to play for Kilkenny, always knew that I wanted to win All-Irelands. That was my thing," he explains.
He laughs fondly at the memory of being part of a Kilkenny side that beat Louth in a minor football championship match, less so at the recollection of the spell when his gym work went over the top. Hanging around with rugby players at UL and following their programmes set him off course and left him more like a lock forward than a half-back.
Who cried stop? "The mother told me," Joyce smiles. "She said 'you have shoulders on you like a heifer or a bullock!'. She put me up on the weighing scales once or twice too."
Did you put on much weight? "Ah, I did yeah."
All muscle? "Yeah," he laughs again, "a good bit of muscle."
You're 14 stone 2lbs now? "Well I'd say I went past 15. I thought bigger, stronger and more powerful was best but obviously the way the game has gone now it's about speed and explosiveness."
Nowadays he only hits the gym under strict supervision and says it's as clear as day if someone is overdoing the weights. "It would be seen straight away - lads would be lethargic in their movement and wouldn't be as explosive in their sprinting, if they were chasing for a ball."
Ironically, his old bulk would have helped him withstand the truck-like collision he had with Johnny Glynn in the sixth minute of the Leinster final when they clashed for a ball.
"He's a big man, isn't he?" Joyce groans. "A strong man. I didn't see it coming at all. I think he hit me here (gestures to chest), I was lucky enough he didn't hit me on the collarbone. I was completely winded at the time. I was seeing a few stars."
Concussion was a concern and Dr Tadhg Crowley put him through the usual protocols. "I was a bit rattled by it. Look, I'll try to line him up again and see what happens," he jokes.
He's quizzed on today's game and mentions that unlike his time at UL he can either offload quickly or send the ball into the clouds, safe in the knowledge that the Kilkenny forwards can win their own ball. With either TJ Reid or Walter Walsh expected to go onto John Hanbury this afternoon, Kilkenny will seek the direct route.
"It's a key thing for any forward that's going to play with Kilkenny. They're going to have to win the 50-50 balls, and TJ is obviously a gifted player. Richie Hogan, for his size as well, is so strong in the air and that's a huge attribute. If you're under pressure and you're over your shoulder you can just let the ball up. I know for other teams they won't do that because they're thinking, 'what if I lose possession?'. It does give an added benefit to our backs."
Ball-winners in attack mean that defenders have the luxury of compressing space in their own half and going long from there.
"That allows you to draw back," he agrees. "You always have the full-back line shouting to cover because the worst thing is if you see 40 yards of space in front of you. You have the likes of Shane O'Donnell flying around and it's impossible to mark. No matter how good you are, you can't anticipate it unless you're hanging out of him, which you're not going to be doing either. Any forward would love 30 or 40 yards either side of them. For any back, it's a nightmare. The more contracted you play the better."
But Galway will also drop a lot deeper this afternoon so Kilkenny will have to counteract that too. Cody, however, always gets his match-ups right.
"An All-Ireland final can take on a life of its own as well and the big thing is to not get lost in the occasion," Joyce stresses. "Thankfully, I have a bit of experience there and know what's ahead of me. The crowd, the occasion, and everything. If a mistake happens, it happens. It's up to the character of the man to back himself to go for it again."
He will have no problem on that front. "Look, when the chance comes, you really have to take it. I always feel that if you trust yourself, put in as much work as you can and just go for it, there won't be regrets. But if you hold back at all, it will be seen."
He has never held back, nor feared for what lay ahead. For Kieran Joyce, the journey continues.

Hi! My name is Abby. I'm a Medical Aesthetician at LUX Med Spa, and I have melasma. Even as a licensed skincare professional, I am faced with many of the same skincare concerns as my patients. For those of you not familiar with this less-than-desirable skin condition, melasma is hormonal hyperpigmentation. Once it shows up it's always there, and is almost guaranteed to rear its ugly head in the summer, even with the proper use of sunscreen (reapplying every 2-3 hours) and a hat. It can even be a problem year round without the daily application of sunscreen.
So, you have melasma, and it's darker from sun exposure. Now what?
After two beach trips, I decided it was time for a Perfect Peel, and had wonderful results after ONE peel! The Perfect Peel is a medical grade TCA peel designed to treat melasma. Once my skin was finished peeling, I started my annual routine of applying Obagi Blender (4% hydroquinone) and Obagi Tretinoin on a nightly basis. For daily sun protection, I like Skin Medica's Daily Physical Defense Sunscreen, Broad Spectrum SPF 30+.
As you can see, my melasma was on full display after returning from the beach. The Perfect Peel gave me fabulous results! On a side note: Once you start a skincare regimen like mine it's time to hang up that bikini and stay out of the sun! Melasma is stubborn but you have options, so take comfort in knowing that it is manageable! For a complimentary consultation at LUX Med Spa call 404-465-1234!

Day 2, Beth and I decided to rent a car. Keep in mind that they drive on the wrong side of the road over here. In doing my research for our honeymoon, I had come across a car rental place that seemed to be close to our hotel. We called them up and ten minutes later they were at our hotel with a car. One signature later, the car was ours. No drivers license, credit card, or collateral for the car needed. We paid in cash and they said they'd be back the next day to get the car. Beth and I looked at each other like, are you serious? But oh well. When in Thailand, do as the Thais do. Below is a pic of our sweet ride:
Having the car was great. We went and explored more of Phuket. We went hiking near a waterfall and then drove over to the crazy part of the island called Patong Beach. There we walked around, went shopping, and walked on the beach. We even went to Swensen's for ice cream. I remember going to Swensen's when I was 8 or 9 years old when we went to the Lake of the Ozarks. Nothing's changed, it was some great ice cream!

This one won't go down as one of the better girls basketball games of the season.
North Carroll still is trying to find its identity as a team, and Walkersville has a long way to go before it is ready to compete against strong teams.
The result of this matchup was a loosely played, foul-marred and turnover-filled game that had North Carroll winning with ease, 64-38, at home.

Adulting (verb): to do grown up things and hold responsibilities and that make you be considered to be a grown up.
I know a lot of our generation kind of baulk at the idea of adulting. Often we feel like we fail at being an adult. Being responsible and grown up can be hard sometimes. No need to sugar coat it. It's not that we don't want to grow up and responsible, but that we just don't seem to have it together all of the time.

Lovely Florrie, could be the perfect collar for a wedding or celebration. She's made using lush plum velvet and has a totally removable posey of my handmade felted roses so you have a plain collar for less celebratory days. This is a canine two for one ! As usual, Florrie is topped off with an exclusive Srufts' handmade heart shaped tag.
A note about sizes: The width of the collars is 1 inch or 2.5cm, and the clasp width on the collar is 1 1/4 inches or 3.2 cm, so it's a good idea to check against your current lead and collar set to make sure it is not too large for your dog. Although my small size is just great for Terriers upwards, it really isn't suitable for toy breeds such as Yorkies etc due to the clasp. So please bear this in mind when choosing your new collar.
This is a dog collar only.

Rising duo DROELOE first popped up on our radar roughly six months ago with their single "Bon Voyage," a dreamy tune that incorporated glitchy synth patterns, airy vocals and steady percussion to create a unique future bass sound. The Netherlands-based artists have impressed ever since, sharing chill tracks like "See Through Me" and teaming up with San Holo to drop "Lines of the Broken," one of the year's most stunning tracks, via bitbird. Today we're happy to be premiering yet another impressive track from DROELOE, "Jump" feat. Nevve, out now on Monstercat.
Most compelling about "Jump" is the extensive amount of elements seamlessly incorporated into one track. DROELOE tie together synth patterns all across the board, airy vocals and distorted vocal samples, varying percussion styles and more in a clean, masterful way, resulting in a light-hearted future bass track that's truly innovative. "Jump" is captivating and intricate, especially for a duo that has only been in the music game for a little over a year.
It seems like DROELOE is coming into their own with each and every track they put out, and we can't wait to see what they have in store for the future. Check out "Jump" below and enjoy!

Planting the seeds for a more inclusive economy
Reflections on the 2016 B Corp Champions Retreat
Paul Hawkins suggests that successful businesses are tended to like gardens.
As entrepreneurs, owners, and operators the growth we should be focusing on is in the healthy soil and roots of our businesses so that year after year our endeavors can flower and flourish. This could be seen as contradictory to the mantra of "scale or die" which is so prevalent in today's growth oriented companies and the entrepreneur often needs help navigating the path forward. For B-line, I have found this guidance in the certified B Corp movement. The B Corp community, with the support of the non-profit B Lab, continues to provide a roadmap for how a company can truly be a force for good.
I was reminded of the uniting and inspiring voices of the B-Corp movement a few weeks ago when I attended the annual Champions Retreat in Philadelphia, PA, where over 500 representatives from over 300 B Corps converged from 19 different countries for three days of service, collaboration, and celebration. This year's theme was "Towards an inclusive Economy" and at every session – large or small – the participants grappled with this notion. We explored the nuances of the words diversity, equality, equity, and inclusion. Conversations were built around internal company practices as well as greater community outreach. Through reading, reflecting, and sharing the text Freedom from Fear by Aung San Suu Kyi, we explored individually and collectively the nature of Fear as corruption. Then, on the last day of the retreat, we were inspired by presenters who shared their path toward an inclusive economy and challenged the rest of us to do so as well.
At the retreat, I was pulled out of the daily events that so often overwhelm a business owner and was given the opportunity to consider what path(s) B-line will choose to grow a more inclusive company. At first, the immediate hurdles of capital, resources, and leadership bandwidth screamed at me from the front of my brain. But as the conversations continued, I began to realize the unique position B-line plays in our community. The myriad ways that we can continue to foster more inclusive roots throughout our organization and in the communities we serve have begun to sprout.
Historically, B-line's impact business model has focused on creating a more livable community via the reduction of truck trips into our urban center and neighborhoods. First through consolidation, and then through vehicle replacement with our trikes, B-line takes small but critical steps towards a less carbon-intensive method of moving freight throughout the city. With the move to the Redd on Salmon street, B-line now has an appropriately sized warehouse to serve as a central city hub that can expand our mission and our business simply by providing an accessible space. In the months and years to come, I believe that B-line can strive to leverage this access to grow a more inclusive economy. Here's how:
- We can continue our efforts towards a livable wage and equity in compensation;
- We can grow a more diverse workforce by providing "green-collar" jobs;
- We can seek to grow programs such as B-shares to continue our efforts at supporting vulnerable communities;
- We can provide access to a hub for warehousing and logistics for organizations tackling food insecurity through urban farming and agricultural education, such as Groundwork USA;
- We can provide access to minority-owned, value-added, small food businesses that need space and logistics to grow their operations;
- We can leverage our advertising partnerships to raise awareness of inclusive action within our communities and businesses;
- We can strategize how mini-hubs can be deployed in underserved communities and provide access to hyper-local jobs that directly serve those communities;
- And, in partnership with other B-Corps, we can leverage our position at the intersection of many types of business to increase the awareness of the need for an inclusive economy throughout our value and supply chains.
As Kevin Trapani emphatically demonstrated during the B Inspired Talks, this all makes good business sense, as "No business can succeed in a community that is failing." Please join me in planting the seeds and helping B-line grow a more inclusive economy.

Swetha Kannan
In a candid interview with Twaang, Carnatic singer T. M. Krishna explains his rather bold decision to distance himself from the most coveted December music season in Chennai.
You have raised several issues pertaining to the sabha culture in the past. In a sense, many perhaps saw this decision to not sing at the December season anymore coming. Can you pin down the big trigger behind this?
There is no specific trigger. My own journey in trying to discover the music and its context led to some fundamental changes in me. In a way, this decision was coming, it was only a question of when. The way I see music as an experiential form, my issues with the unscrupulous commodification of the art, especially during the season, and the social hegemony in the Carnatic world has led me to feel more and more distanced from the music season environment. I do think the texture of the music season has changed over the last decades.
Do you feel you cannot point fingers at the system and still be part of it? Is that why you want to graciously step aside?
I am unable to offer music 'in quiet' amidst the music season's noisiness. I am not as yet completely outside the system! I will be singing concerts throughout the year.
Aren't kutcheris in the other months of the year also similar to the concerts during the December season, perpetuating the same beliefs and culture?
I think the December season shows us all the symptoms of the serious problems in the Carnatic music world that need to be understood with all their nuances. And I do think that though governed by the same culture, musicians, rasikas and organisers have a calmer mind to listen and discuss music in the other months. I have a lot of respect for the sabhas as they have contributed to the art and I cannot deny that. Maybe by being part of the established music tradition beyond December we can work together and consider changes to the music world. It may be easier to have these conversations beyond the pandemonium of the music season. We have to make the Chennai music scene less centred on the music season.
The UrurOlcottMargazhiVizhain Chennai's fishing hamlet early this year saw an alternative format emerging. You spearheaded that in a big way. What is going to happen to this vizha now? Will it get stronger, bigger in the years to come?
You can be sure that UrurOlcottkuppam festival will happen in 2016. It will certainly be stronger but not necessarily bigger. I am not sure that for an idea to contribute purposefully it really needs to become bigger.
A section of the sabha going population now feels the season will lose its shine a bit considering you are an icon of sorts in the field. I am sure these rasikas want to know if this decision is a permanent, irrevocable one…
I can assure everyone that they can hear me rest of the year. But this decision is irrevocable.
You have for some time now been moving away from just music. We hear and read you in other formats too. You are a writer, philosopher and more. What else is cooking?
Music is what gives me everything. Whatever I say comes from the experience of music, therefore music can never leave me, nor can I ever let go of it. There are a few things I am trying, let's see.

A smartphone game apparently allowing players to fight as slain Florida teenager Trayvon Martin remains available for purchase, despite the developers' public declaration that it had been removed.
Fast Company reported Tuesday morning that Trade Digital, Inc., makers of the "Angry Trayvon" game, released a statement Monday night announcing that the game was no longer available and apologizing.
"Sorry for the inconvenience as this was just an action game for entertainment," the statement read. "This was by no means a racist game. Nonetheless, it was removed as will this page and anything associated with the game will be removed."
But the game was still listed and available for purchase on Google Play when The Raw Story searched for it Tuesday morning. The email address listed for Trade Digital at Google Play was apparently invalid. An email requesting comment from Google had not been answered at the time this article was published.
In the game, players guide a character wearing a hoodie, as Martin was when he was shot and killed in Sanford, Florida in February 2012, and are encouraged to "collect money and wallets to increase your score" and "eliminate the bad guys with flying daggers."
George Zimmerman, who shot and killed Martin, is currently on trial on second-degree murder charges.
Fast Company reported that the game was made available in December 2012, and last updated June 1, 2013.
Watch a short "demo" for the game, posted online by Trade Digital in November 2012, below.

Family fun found all over Ipswich
TIME flies when you're having fun and it goes even quicker when the kids are too.
It seemed Ipswich was not short of activities to keep the younger ones busy when we asked for some ideas on places to take the kids on Facebook.
Queens Park and Ipswich Nature Centre were popular choices for parents as was the Ipswich Art Gallery.
"Ipswich has heaps of fantastic parks, a picnic is always a great fun way to spend an afternoon with the kids," said Sharon Ross.
"So much to do in Ipswich, Art Gallery rocks but be prepared for you kids to want to spend hours there," said Janice Freiberg.
Other out of the box suggestions included a trip to the Riverheart Parklands and simply touring the city, looking at its history.
"Take them for a walk to look at heritage houses," said Lois Kilmartin.
"Ipswich has heaps, they are beautiful and all have information out front on plaques."
Other educational activities for the kids included trips to the Ipswich Library and the Workshops Rail Museum.
For those looking for more of a thrill the Tactical Ops Paintball fields in Rosewood were suggested for children aged 15 and over.
Trampoline park and indoor play centre Just Jump was also a popular choice for adventure seekers.
"Just Jump is at the sport complex across from Redbook Plaza. it's fun (we) went there last weekend," said Melissa Small.
Other Facebook friends such as Steve Brown had more sinister suggestions.
"The dentist, kids love dentists," he said.

If there's one thing that strikes a chord with all of us in the connected world it's that we want everything at our fingertips; not later, now. There are a few ways the tech industry has serviced this need, most notably cloud storage and Video-On-Demand. For those with home entertainment and central file server needs, the cut-and-dry method seems to gravitate towards a home NAS system, with the more robust being SOHO (small office home office) solutions. I've never used a NAS device before, so the dual bay QNAP Turbo NAS TS 251 was as much a learning experience as it was a test of its features and capabilities, something I came to enjoy quite a bit. Priced at around R5 700 just for device excluding any hard drive makes the NAS seem a touch expensive, but there are many redeeming factors and qualities to justify investing in a NAS device given the features on offer.
The NASty Bits
NAS devices are pretty much mini-computers with a dedicated purpose—centralising control of your home networking capabilities. To do that requires some hardware capable of dealing with many devices connecting to and making use of its storage and applications. To run these tasks the NAS has a Intel Celeron J1800 CPU, a nimble 2.41GHz dual core CPU with an "Al-Gore approved" 10W TDP. This particular unit comes with a 1GB of low power DDR3 RAM, which is upgradeable to 8GB. Bear in mind that the unit only has two DIMM slots, so upgrade accordingly. The unit also comes with two Gigabit Ethernet ports, so it has more than enough throughput to your router. Coming with two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports mean it has enough connection options for a variety of devices.
This dual bay NAS device is lightweight, even with the 4TB Western Digital Red hard drive installed. The unit is small enough to fit alongside or under your desk or within a breathable space in your TV cabinet. Its white finish may be more "chic" than I am used to, but I found it more or less "Feng Shui" enough for my Qi—i.e it's not horrible looking. A surprisingly pleasant feature was the stubbornness of the unit—even though there are no suction cups or hardcore rubberised feat, the material they use on the feet is simply excellent at keeping it in place; perfect if you have little ones or a cat who doesn't want you to have nice things.
My First Time…Setup
Placing the unit was simple—right next to the router by my desk. Proximity to the device itself does mean the spinning disk is heard, but it's a sound that I found at worst to be mildly audible when doing heavy lifting tasks like transcoding or installing new applications.
Setting the unit up was a simple affair—simply screw the Hard drive in place, power up and plug the Ethernet cables into a router and use the QR code on the side of the unit to access, add and set up the unit through the myQNAPcloud interface. Installation using my cellphone threw up some errors, so eventually I went through setup on the desktop.
The instructions were simple to follow and after about 20 minutes the device has been setup and paired to an account with a username and password. To access the device you can either install Qfinder Pro which is a "top layer" software interface to access your NAS or change some basic setting. For the more robust features, you have to access the device itself via IP.
