Continued margin improvement; Adjusted non-GAAP EPS of $1.18, up 37% on 2014
Board authorizes new $90m stock repurchase plan and declares increase in semi-annual dividend
ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Nov. 03, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innospec Inc. (NASDAQ:IOSP) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015. At the same time, the Company announced a new share repurchase program which targets to repurchase up to $90 million of stock over the next three years. It also announced that it has declared a semi-annual dividend of $0.31 per common share for the second half of 2015, which will be paid on November 25, 2015 to shareholders of record as of November 16, 2015. This brings the annual dividend to 61 cents per share, an 11 percent increase over 2014.
Total net sales for the third quarter were $254.2 million, up 11 percent from the $228.2 million reported in the corresponding quarter last year. Net income was $35.6 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, compared to $20.8 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, recorded a year ago. EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and fair value adjustments) for the quarter was $42.1 million, a 29 percent increase from $32.6 million in 2014's third quarter.
Results for this quarter include several special items, which are summarized in the table below. Excluding these items, adjusted non-GAAP EPS was $1.18 per diluted share, compared to $0.86 per diluted share a year ago. Innospec closed the quarter with a net debt position of $4.9 million, down from $71.1 million at the end of the second quarter. This includes the $41.5 million cash proceeds from the disposal of the Aroma Chemicals business. Cash generation in the quarter was strong, with operating cash inflows of $35.5 million before capital expenditures during the quarter of $6.6 million.
EBITDA and net income excluding special items, and related per-share amounts, are non-GAAP financial measures that are defined and reconciled with GAAP results herein and in the schedules below.
For the first nine months of 2015, total net sales of $766.3 million increased 14 percent from $670.2 million in the corresponding period last year. Net income for the nine-month period was $88.0 million, or $3.57 per diluted share, compared with $56.2 million, or $2.26 per diluted share, a year ago. Excluding special items, diluted earnings per share for the first nine months of 2015 were $3.11 up 30 percent from $2.39 a year ago. EBITDA for the first nine months of 2015 was $113.5 million, 24 percent higher than $91.3 million a year ago
Commenting on third quarter results, Patrick S. Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer of Innospec, said, "Despite the continuing tough market environment, we are pleased to report another strong quarter for Innospec, with continued gains in sales, margins, operating income and EBITDA. Our results are broadly in line with our expectations and we have closed on a number of important new business opportunities.
"Our strategy has continued to deliver, especially when you consider the challenging market conditions in most areas of the world.
"In Fuel Specialties, our results have held up well. Our core fuels business continued to benefit from sales mix and lower raw material prices. The business in EMEA was impacted by adverse currency movements, but our underlying business remains in good shape. Asia-Pacific suffered slightly from poor market conditions, but our gross margins here have strengthened, due to a richer sales mix. As we expected, the AvTel product line had a stronger quarter, but we see no fundamental shift in demand.
"Needless to say, the oilfield market remains extremely challenging, with low crude oil prices prevailing throughout the quarter. Despite this, we posted a strong third quarter in Oilfield Specialties, with sequential sales holding steady, including some market share gains. Gross margins showed good growth, driven by a strong performance in our frac/stim business and by a richer sales mix in our production business. Compared to many of our competitors, we believe that this is a very creditable performance. Nevertheless, we continue to be diligent regarding both customer service and cost containment measures so that we remain aligned with our customers prospects. We believe that we will reach our goals in Oilfield Specialties for the full year and are well positioned in the market. However, the low price of crude and gas continues to have a huge impact on our customers' investment plans and we remain very cautious regarding prospects through the next quarter and into 2016.
"In Performance Chemicals we completed the disposal of our Aroma Chemicals business on July 6. Adjusting prior year comparatives for this disposal, third quarter sales were about the same as last year, with our improved Personal Care performance offsetting the softer, less profitable Polymers market. We delivered a stronger margin and operating performance, due to higher-margin sales while our new product launches have created a stronger foundation for future sales growth. The performance in EMEA was significantly impacted by the adverse currency movements, without which we would have shown healthy growth. In the Americas, we had good growth, with continued new business wins.
"As we previously indicated, Octane Additives completed the delivery of the latest order during the quarter and we continue to focus on responsibly managing the last customer in this market.
"We remain cautiously optimistic in our expectations for the remainder of the year. We believe we are well positioned, both financially and operationally, for an eventual market turn, but we remain very conscious of the impact that oil and gas prices are having on our customers."
Net sales in Fuel Specialties for the quarter of $190.3 million, a 22 percent increase from $156.1 million in last year's third quarter, were driven again by a strong contribution from the Independence acquisition. Excluding the acquisition, volumes were up slightly by 1 percent, offset by a weaker sales mix of 6 percent and the adverse currency impact of 5 percent in the quarter. Excluding Oilfield Specialties, fuel revenues in the Americas were up 10 percent year over year driven by volume growth, but declined 13 percent in EMEA and 17 percent in Asia-Pacific due to an adverse sales mix and foreign exchange. Gross margins in the segment rose 2.2 percentage points from last year to 36.3 percent, benefitting from a richer sales mix of higher margin business. Operating income for the quarter was $27.0 million, up 10 percent from last year's $24.5 million.
In Performance Chemicals, adjusting prior year comparatives for the disposal of Aroma Chemicals, net sales of $43.6 million were on par year over year, as volume growth of 13 percent offset 6 percent lower pricing and an adverse currency impact of 7 percent. By region, sales were similar to last year in the Americas but fell 4 percent in EMEA due mainly to foreign exchange. Asia-Pacific sales were up 21 percent from last year driven by improved volumes. The segment's gross margin was 28.4 percent benefitting from a richer sales mix with increased sales of higher margin Personal Care business. Operating income of $5.4 million for the quarter was down from the $6.6 million reported in 2014's third quarter. Adjusting last year for the Aroma Chemicals disposal, operating income was broadly on par year over year.
In Octane Additives, net sales for the quarter were $20.3 million, as expected.
Corporate costs were $9.3 million, down by $0.7 million from a year ago, and remain broadly within the expected range. Pension impact in the quarter was negligible, compared to a charge of $0.8 million a year ago. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 14 percent, and the full year adjusted effective tax rate is anticipated to be 21 percent. This is lower than previously expected due to the change in geographic mix of taxable earnings, and revisions to our tax estimates.
Net cash generated from operations was strong in the quarter at $35.5 million, compared to $25.2 million reported a year ago. In the quarter, Innospec received $41.5 million from the disposal of the Aroma Chemicals business. As of September 30, 2015, Innospec has $132.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and a total debt of $137.7 million, resulting in net debt of $4.9 million. In the third quarter, the company retired 84,633 shares at a cost of $4.0 million as part of the board-authorized share repurchase program.
The Innospec Board has also approved a new $90 million share repurchase program.
Mr. Williams concluded, "In conclusion, we have delivered on our expectations in the third quarter and we believe we are very much on target in terms of meeting our goals for the full year.
"Once again, we had a strong quarter in terms of cash generation, which, coupled with the proceeds from the Aroma Chemicals disposal, has enabled us to significantly reduce our net debt position, while still maintaining a very strong balance sheet. This enables us to continue to seek further strategic acquisitions.
"We continue to focus on enhancing our return to shareholders, and we have demonstrated this in terms of the 11 percent increase in our semi-annual dividend and the Board approval for the substantially enhanced share repurchase program."

Johannesburg - Calling all crocodile experts - South African police say you're needed to help capture thousands of crocs out on the lam.
Thousands of crocodiles escaped a breeding farm along a river on the South Africa-Botswana border when the farms' gates were opened earlier this week to alleviate pressure caused by rising flood waters.
Efforts are now being made to wrangle the reptiles and get them back to the Rakwena Crocodile Farm, from where the vast majority escaped. Hangwani Mulaudzi, a spokesman for the police in Limpopo Province, said Friday that experts are needed right away to help sort out the crocodile crisis.
"Due to the number of crocodiles that have been washed away there is a need for expertise, people who have expertise to come and assist," Mulaudzi said. "So we are just making appeals to anyone ... who has knowledge of catching crocodiles to come and assist."
News reports from the scene show people hunting down smaller crocodiles at night, tying them up and taking them back to the Rakwena Crocodile Farm in northern South Africa. The crocodiles are easier to hunt at night because their eyes glow when hit with a beam of light. The farm's website shows crocs up to 16 feet long, though crocs of all sizes escaped, Mulaudzi said.
It isn't clear exactly how many crocodiles are on the loose. Mulaudzi said he believes around 10,000 from multiple farms remain on the loose.
Officials from the Rakwena Crocodile Farm have been quoted in conflicting South African media accounts as saying either 7,000 escaped or up to 15,000 escaped. The farm originally held about 15,000 crocs. About 2,000 crocodiles have been returned to the farm, Mulaudzi said.The farm did not respond to an email or calls seeking comment.
Regardless of the exact number of farm-raised crocs now touring the wild, government officials and experts are calling on people who live near the remote region, which sits on the Limpopo River, to be careful around bodies of water. Many of the crocodiles are assumed to now be residing in the river.
"So far we are lucky. There has not been any emergencies," said Mulaudzi. "And we are hopeful that nothing will happen. But with crocodiles all over in the river we are saying, please, we need assistance."
Donald Strydom, a wildlife expert at South Africa's Khamai Reptile Centre, said he doesn't think the croc release will lead to a loss of human life. People are aware of the situation, he said, and crocodiles don't naturally hunt humans.
"People must not go into a monster hunt and think these crocodiles are out to eat them," Styrdom told South Africa's eNews Channel Africa.
Mulaudzi said he did not think the Rakwena Crocodile Farm would face any charges from police for releasing the crocs, given the emergency nature of the flood. Flood waters are inundating northern South Africa and neighboring Mozambique. But Mulaudzi said the farm may face scrutiny from the Department of Environmental Affairs, which is helping with the reptile emergency.
The Rakwena Crocodile Farm website shows goods like crocodile-skin purses, belts and hats for sale. Crocodile meat is also available for purchase.

Viva Che! by Andrew Sinclair
Book DescriptionThis book on Che Guevara, in the words of his comrades an with tributes from the leading figures of the world, was the first book to be published on the guerrilla hero in the revolutionary year of 1968, when all change seemed possible. Collected in Cuba the previous year, "Viva Che!" is the only contemporary portrait of the international icon, to appear so soon after his murder in Bolivia, and captures the charged feeling of the time. With such contributors as Graham Greene, Robert Lowell, Susan Sontag and Italo Calvino, it is a unique and enduring testament to the period. As Calvino wrote after a meeting, 'In my mind, the discussions with Che have gone on all these years, and the more time has passed, the more he has been right. 'This new edition includes new material by Andrew Sinclair which reveals how Che's death and example led to the revolutions of 1968, particularly in France, the UK and the USA. It also includes Fidel Castro's speech on Che's death, along with Inti Peredo's insistence that the struggle would continue. These features, which are fully complemented with posters, intimate photographs and other ephemera, will ensure that this is an essential purchase for anyone interested in this enduring icon, and the legacy he left behind.

Con Graphics are small on high res displays
When playing this game on a high resolution screen the game will look small and dense, which may be irritating that it does not scale to ones resolution as it can be difficult to read the text or see what is going on.
Train Fever···
Train Fever is a management game where players build up a transport company by building infrastructure and purchasing transportation.
Con Difficult to surmise why certain routes do not succeed
The game does not surface the needed info one would want to know in order to make sure their routes in the game succeed. This means players will be left guessing as to why some succeed and some fail, which detracts from the gameplay and makes one question the AI.
Pro Utilize multiple modes of transit
Unlike many transport management games that focus on one type of transport such as trains or boats, Train Fever features trains, buses and trucks. This makes for varied gameplay as different tactics and skills will need to be used in order to utilize each mode of transport.
Pro Randomly generated levels
Each level i s randomly generated which means that each game will play out differently due to how each level is never the same. This makes for good longevity of gameplay.
Con Takes a while to get the hang of
Learning the game may take some time, though the mechanics are not too difficult to grasp, the gameplay itself can be frustrating.
Pro Soothing gameplay
Minimalist design and relaxing music makes this a very different experience from the bustle of some others. A minimal zen like game that allows one to relax while playing. While gameplay may get hectic there are modes of play that do not allow for loosing meaning that you can relax and just play...
Pro Very minimal puzzle sim aspects
Very basic and abstract in design and gameplay the user uses limited resources in order to create the most effective routes for a transportation system.
Pro "Empire-building" feeling

Pro Numerous ports, each with their own feel
Each port in the game looks and feels different, just as they would in the real world, which gives a sense of originality as well as a feeling of progress in the game due to new environments.
Con Micromanagement
As your fleet grows, having to select each destination and cargo for each journey of each boat could become tiresome. Compared to the set-it-and-forget it approach of route planning in other games. This may be time consuming for some players who would rather focus on the main aspects of the game.
Cities in Motion 2···
Cities in Motion 2 is a transport simulation game developed by Colossal Order and published by Paradox Interactive.
Pro Create and use custom maps
There is a level designer included in the game meaning players can create their own maps to play on. This also means players can use other peoples maps by downloading and installing them.
The tutorial does not cover many needed aspects in the game meaning players are left on their own to figure out many of the games elements.

The ZVOX Mini is an ultra-compact single-cabinet surround sound audio system that falls at the bottom end of those offered by ZVOX. This device uses the same technology as the larger systems offered by ZVOX, but uses smaller speakers than those used in the ZVOX 315 and ZVOX 325. This is the smallest system in the lineup coming in at 13" wide, 10" deep and 3.3" high, making it easy to fit in any space and very transportable. With the optional rechargeable battery, it can even be taken to the beach or camping, with optional PortaParty padded carrybag. The ZNOX mini uses PhaseCue circuitry to vary the phase of the sound produced to give the illusion of a very wide sound stage, even from behind you where there are no speakers. Although it is not a complete replacement for a full 5.1 surround system, it is much more affordable and simple to setup. There are three 2.5" main drivers, 40 watt amplifier and a 4" x 6" subwoofer all contained withing the unit, but there is an output for optional external subwoofer. The speakers use ferrofluid and neodymium magnets for improved sound quality and dispersion, and the cabinet is made of MDF (medium density fiberboard), the same material uses in most high-end loudspeakers. The ZVOX Mini is made to be as easy to use and setup as possible. Once plugged in, it will automatically turn on after the audio source is powered up, and return to idle mode once the source has been turned off. If the TV being used has a "variable" output audio jacks, the TV remote can be used to control the TV/325 volume. However, the device can also be controlled using the front panel volume control or supplied remote control. There are two mini-jack 3.5 mm inputs which are auto mixed. There is a 3.5mm/3.5mm cable and 3.5mm/RCA cable included.
- Compact design (13" x 10" x 3.3")
- Weight: 7 lbs (without 3 lbs power supply)
- Amplifer: 40 watt
- Three 2.5" drivers
- 4" x 6" subwoofer
- Frequency Response: 63 Hz - 20 kHz
- Two mixing 3.5mm inputs
- 3.5mm/3.5mm cable included

NSF's Implementation of the Department of Labor's FLSA Over Time Rule
The Department of Labor recently announced the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) final over time rule. The FLSA final overtime rule automatically extends overtime pay protections to millions of workers and could impact some personnel on NSF grants, including postdoctoral researchers. The National Science Foundation continues to acknowledge the important role of postdoctoral researchers on NSF-funded projects, and, in general, NSF postdoctoral programs already include a stipend or salary in excess of the new minimum established by the FLSA final overtime rule.
Since the announcement of the new rule, NSF has received many questions on how this rule will affect NSF-funded projects. NSF has created a set of Frequently Asked Questions in order to address these questions. The FAQs are posted on the NSF Policy Office website at http://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/faqs/flsa_faqs.pdf.

Weekend warriors who embark on an exercise blitz over the weekend – despite being office and couch potatoes during the week – enjoy almost the same health benefits as regular exercisers, a new study says. Up until now scientists believed that the damage done by 5 days of inactivity could not be overcome by weekend exercise. The new study however, shows that even the weekend warriors' lifestyle of no exercise followed by intense weekend activity was enough to afford significant health benefits, lowering the risk of heart disease and cancer by more than a third.
"The weekend warrior activity pattern, characterised by one or two sessions per week of moderate or vigorous physical activity, may be sufficient to reduce risks for all-cause, cardiovascular disease and cancer mortality regardless of adherence to prevailing physical activity guidelines," said lead author Dr Gary O'Donovan, of Loughborough University.
Some smaller studies had previously inferred that vigorous exercise on the weekend only was likely to increase injury and put a strain on the heart. But the new study is both broad and large, following 63,000 British adults over a period of 18 years to find out how the frequency and quantity of exercise benefit health.
All those who exercised – regardless of whether they did so throughout the week or at weekends only – had a large reduction in the risk of early death. Although those who exercised more frequently had an even better chance of healthy old age, it was only a slight increase. Those who spread their exercise over the whole week had a 35% lower risk of death overall (a 41% reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, 21% less risk of cancer). The weekend warriors had an overall reduction of death risk by 30%, with chances of cardio-vascular disease down by 40% and the risk of cancer reduced by 18%. A very close comparison considering they just exercised on the weekend.
"It is very encouraging news that being physically active on just one or two occasions per week is associated with a lower risk of death, even among people who do some activity but don't quite meet recommended exercise levels," said one of the lead authors of the study, Associate Professor Emmanuel Stamatakis from the University of Sydney.
"This finding persisted after adjusting for chronic diseases and excluding those who died in the first two years of the study.
"These results mean that 'Weekend Warriors' and other leisure-time physical activity patterns characterised by one or two sessions per week may provide beneficial health outcomes event when they fall short of physical activity guidelines" he said.
The study was published in the JAMA Internal Medicine magazine.
So even one or two reasonably intense exercise sessions a week will have huge benefits for health – not to mention quality of life, happiness and feelings of well-being. Struggling to make even this one session work? A personal trainer just once a week could be the cost effective solution. Many of our clients have just a single sessions a week with some easy to achieve homework provided by us on the side.
Back in August the DDW team of Diana Tombs, Karma Fields and head trainer Adam Atkinson began training for the BIRC – the British Indoor Rowing Championships. Attended by over 1500 athletes from around the globe, including team GB rowers, national champions and world champions, the championship races take place on Concept 2 machines, the Olympic standard. Although the event is attended by elite athletes and Olympic medalists, it is hugely inclusive, with schools, teams and 80 year olds all competing side by side. As well as open categories the races are divided into age groups, so anyone can take part.
Taking place at the Lee Valley Velodrome, site of the London 2012 Olympic track cycling, the racers compete in the olympic standard 2000m race, the 500m sprint, adaptive races and relays. The 2000m is known throughout the sporting world as the hardest, most challenging physical feat you can face. It's basically a sprint that you have to hold for 6-9 minutes, taking athletes to the darkest recesses of mental and physical toughness. Several competitors on the day were stretchered out of the arena. Many were left writhing on the floor.
Diana Tombs overcame a lightening start from her main rivals to reel them in and come home in gold medal position with an excellent time of 8:16.2. She then clinched the silver medal just a few hours later in the women's 60-64 masters 500m sprint with a time of 1:52.2. She adds the gold and silver to the silver won at the 2014 English Nationals. All the more remarkable is the fact that she has only been rowing for 5 years and only came to sport and fitness shortly before that. You can see more of her journey on our success stories page.
Karma Fields smashed her personal best 2000m time (an 8:07 done in training in November) posting an amazing 7:56.3. This bettered her previous best attempt by some 10 seconds. She came a very respectable 16th place in one of the most competitive categories, the women's 40-49 masters; all the more impressive as she is only in her 1st year of rowing. A definite top ten (and more?) in future British Indoor Rowing Championships. Last seen writhing on the floor of the Olympic velodrome.
Diet's Don't Work founder Adam Atkinson also managed a personal best in the hugely competitive men's 40-49 masters, with a time of 6:33.9. A great 18th place among a field of world record holders, giants and extras for the next Lord of the Rings movie. Also last seen prone on the race floor, he maintains that he was first in the pit pony category.
A huge well done to all that took part on the day both competitors and organisers alike.
1 – Laser Blade. A snug and comfortable helmet, this bit of kit is adjusted by a roller on the top rather than a dial at the rear, which makes it great for the ladies or the rockers as it leaves lots of space for long hair. The 22 air vents keep the head cool and also reduce weight.(£80 from www.lazersport.co.uk)
2 – Zeal Air Profil FC02. At just 18cm long this mini pump is one of the smallest on the market and is genuinely portable. It comes with an old fashioned flexible hose which reduces the chances or damage to the rims and valves when you are exerting lots of pressure, so it ranks as some of the best cycling equipment for 2016. (£25 from www.tredz.co.uk)
3 – Garmin Varia Radar. This smart rear light has a built in radar system which can "see" vehicles approaching from the rear from 140m away. It then lights up and flashes to alert the driver. (£160 from www.garmin.com)
4 – Crankbrothers Y12. This compact and sleek multi tool is made up of 12 compartments including 8 wrenches and two screw drivers. It's sturdy, small and will fit into a pocket. (£19.36 from www.bikes24.co.uk)
5 – Lazerlight Blaze. lazerlight's forward projection technology beams a green image of a bike 6 meters ahead of the rider. Unlike normal lights, the laser light is highly visible from different perspectives, allowing you to be seen despite busy road junctions and blind spots.It also has a normal 300lm light. (£125 from the Blaze shop).
The link between sleep, cortisol, stress and weight gain is well known. But a re-analysis of previous research by King's College University in London has pinpointed just how damaging lack of sleep can be. Can lack of sleep make you fat? Oh yes. In fact, having a poor night's sleep leads people to consume, on average, 385 extra calories the following day. The study, led by Dr Girda Pot (actual name), defined bad sleep as a night with less than 5 ½ hours sleep. The researchers confirmed that lack of sleep can make you fat through disruption of hormone regulation, in particular ghrelin and leptin. These hormones are responsible for controlling feelings of hunger and satiety respectively.
"If long term sleep deprivation continues to result in an increased calorie intake of this magnitude, it may contribute to weight gain" said Dr Pot.
The study confirmed previous studies' results showing that lack of sleep can make you fat.
So try to get at least a good 7 hours sleep. How? We've got a blog for that! Simple tips are: switch tablets, computers and phones off. Research shows that using these before bed will stimulate the brain, making dropping off difficult. Keeping the room cool can also help, as can a good mattress that suits your posture and preference. A good pillow, like memory foam can also be helpful in sending you off to the land of nod. Try to eat reasonably early, so that the process of digestion is finished by the time you go to bed and try to avoid high intensity interval training in the evening – this will produce endorphins that will keep you alert and awake later than you might want. Some also swear by lavender oil or dried lavender to soothe you to sleep.
A new study by the University of Cambridge has shown that some people are genetically wired to crave fatty foods over healthier options, putting them at more risk of obesity than others.
In the study, published in the journal Nature Communications, the researchers created dishes that varied solely in fat or sugar content. The main meal on offer, chicken korma, had three variations; high, low and medium fat. Apart from this they were made to be as identical as possible in both taste and appearance. The 54 volunteers were given a small taste of each, then left to eat as much as they liked from any of the three variations.
The menu also offered dessert, with the choice of three seemingly identical portions of Eton mess, a tasty combination of merengue, strawberries and cream. In the case of the dessert, the differing factor was the sugar content, so three otherwise identical desserts with low, medium and high sugar.
In the test 14 people unwittingly ate significantly more of the high-fat korma than the others in the test. In the pudding section, the same 14 volunteers didn't like the high sugar choice.
All of the 14 high fat eaters were found to have a mutation in their genetic code, specifically in one called MC4R. This gene controls hunger, appetite and how we burn energy. It is thought that about 1 person per 1000 carries the mutation. Mutations in this MC4R gene are the most common genetic cause of severe obesity within families that has so far been identified.
Prof Sadaf Farooqi, from the Wellcome Trust Medical Research Council Institute of Metabolic Science at the University of Cambridge, said the findings suggest that at least some of our food preferences are influenced by biology rather than free will.
"Even if you tightly control the appearance and taste of food, our brains can detect the nutrient content" she said.
"Most of the time we eat foods that are both high in fat and high in sugar. By carefully testing these nutrients separately in this study, and by testing a relatively rare group of people with the defective MC4R gene, we were able to show that specific brain pathways can modulate food preference."
The defective gene makes the brain prefer fat over other food groups and this is connected to an evolutionary survival mechanism programmed to safeguard humans against famine. As fat contains more than twice as much energy than sugar or protein it makes sense to consume more in case of food scarcity.
"Having a pathway that tells you to eat more fat at the expense of sugar, which we can only store to a limited extent in the body, would be a very useful way of defending against starvation." said the professor. She also added that the study did not mean that those with the mutation were helpless in the face of fat, emphasising the importance of exercise and healthy nutrition in maintaining a healthy weight.
Just walking for half an hour a day will halve heart disease chances. Further to the large body of evidence that walking is great for you, a new 6 year study has shown that even just half an hour's walking every day can cut the risk of a fatal heart attack by half. The study also found that walking was just as effective as running in reducing high blood pressure, lowering cholesterol and fighting heart disease. Previous research has also shown that the simple activity can also protect against type 2 diabetes, arthritis, depression and Alzheimer's disease. Type 2 diabetes affects 2.7 million people in the UK. The risk of this can be slashed by up to 30% by walking for only 30 mins daily according to data from the Harvard Nurses' Health Study.
Another 12 year study by Dr David Hupin, physician in the Department of Clinical and Exercise Physiology, University Hospital of Saint-Etienne, France, showed that walking for even 15 minutes a day was "protective even if you have other risk factors for cardiovascular disease such as high cholesterol".
Other recently published studies have shown how walking can precent many of the negative side-effects of ageing. Researchers at Boston University found that walking 6,000 steps or 3 miles a day could improve knee arthritis by helping to build muscle strength and flexibility and also reduce arthritic pain.
Only 25 mins of brisk walking a day could add up to 7 years to your life experts claimed recently. Also when you exercise moderately you reduce your risk of dying from a heart attack when you are in your fifties and sixties by 50%.
To stop emotional eating you need some hypnotherapy, right? A run may be better, shows new research. Changing the way your brain thinks is a complex task. Those who specialise in the field usually talk of changing neurological patterns through changing routine; the theory is that every habit requires a start point, or cue; then the activity, then the reward. So to change emotional eating, theory would state that you need to analyse (and change) the cue (or cause), the routine and if possible change the reward too. Tea is a good example. Instead of reacting to the cue (I want to eat) by eating, you could make some tea instead. This covers all the bases; it takes the cue (perhaps an argument with a friend) but then changes the routine and the reward – tea is the reward. The routine is the brewing.
Although many methods to change habits and stop emotional eating work purely on a psychological level, another method in breaking the pattern of emotional eating has been discovered: interval training.
Recent research published in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise shows that interval training reduces the cues and breaks the routines that lead to over eating. Especially in sedentary, office bound subjects. The study stated
"An acute bout of interval exercise after mental work resulted in significantly decreased food consumption compared with a nonexercise condition. These results suggest that an acute bout of exercise may be used to offset positive energy balance induced by mental tasks".
The study followed 38 University students who were offered unlimited pizza in a single meal. How much they ate on average was measured. Then, on another day, they were made to sit and do 20 minutes of an exam, to recreate office work conditions. Half of the group then sat for 25 minutes, the other half did high intensity intervals on a treadmill. Then it was pizza time.
Those who had been sitting ate 100 calories more than on the first test day. Those who had been running had 25 calories less. When the energy used by those in the intervals is added in it totalled 200 calories less. The New York Times said of the study:
"An acute bout of interval exercise after mental work resulted in significantly decreased food consumption compared with a nonexercise condition. These results suggest that an acute bout of exercise may be used to offset positive energy balance induced by mental tasks".
Unlike our other animal friends, humans have uniquely evolved with a large brain. This brain uses much more energy (blood sugar) than other animals. And this energy must always be supplied, even if it means shutting off supply to other vital organs. The study would seem to show that using the brain only creates an urge for more calories than are needed than when we use both our brain and muscles.
So to stop emotional eating try to include some short but strenuous exercise into your working day. Even a run up the stairs or 20 impromptu burpees will do it.
Studies show us that over 90% of people on a diet fail to lose weight permanently. Logic dictates that if all attempts to lose weight were successful, then eventually everyone would be a happy, fit weight, and dieting or trying for weight loss would be consigned to history.
So why do our attempts to lose weight fail so often? Having been in the personal training business for over 13 years, at Diets Don't Work PT we've seen pretty much every method of weight loss attempted…and then been brought in to clean up the mess! Here are the most common reasons that people fail in their attempts to lose weight and their classic weight loss mistakes
1 – Going all in. Those whose enthusiasm has overtaken their application fail. Eating fewer calories daily while cutting out all bread plus doing an hour of exercise a day while stopping caffeine might sound good, but attempting to do these all at once will lead to failure. Weight loss needs to be done in a step-by-step way. Achievable goals are the key, with a long-term plan. So try to hit just one simple target in the first few weeks – cutting out bread and drinking more water, for example. This must be the top of all weight loss mistakes.
2 – Expecting instant results. Heat magazine and Grazia would have us believe that we can undo years of weight gain in just a few weeks of the latest "wonder diet". But we are designed in a way that makes fast weight loss counter productive. Go too far too soon and really bad things happen – loss of lean muscle mass, lowering of the metabolic rate and weakening of the heart muscle are just a few of the negative side effects.
3 – Weighing too often. Weight is a funny thing. You might have had the best eating week ever, then get on the scales only to see a slight gain. We are not machines, so are not governed purely by the law of "energy in versus energy out" (although this is still the most important factor). We are instead humans, with complex chemical systems (hormones), genetic inheritance and differing metabolic rates. So weight can fluctuate a bit regardless of eating. The classic mistake is to take a surprisingly poor weight result one week personally, allowing it to derail your efforts. Even a week in weight terms is a small amount of time. As we say to our personal training clients, a week or two is a blip, any longer is a trend. Blips are to be taken in your stride. Trends need addressing though. So only weigh once a week, on the same scales, at the same time of day, in the same clothes. Any variance on these can affect the result and not give a true reading.
4 – Believing you can't do it. Although genetics can play a part, as do hormones, age sex and so on, ANYONE can lose weight. Those that say "I've tried and tried and just can't lose weight are mistaken. Those that say "I hardly eat anything and just don't lose weight" are mistaken. They just haven't gone about it the correct way. YOU can lose weight You can. Honest. It might take some application, or even some professional help, but if any human went to a prison camp on limited rations they would get thin. We're not suggesting that, but it's just a case study to prove a point. It's easier than prison camp.
5 – Working only on one side of the equation. The math: 2 pounds of fat = 3,500 calories. This is 500 calories a day. So if you consume 500 calories a day less than you need you will lose 2 pounds. But eating that much less will certainly take a bit of effort. Instead of this one sided approach, you could tackle the other side of the equation at the same time. So you could burn 200 calories with a bit of structured exercise. You could then get another 100 by walking to the station, using a basket not a trolley (at the supermarket) and taking the stairs. Now you only have to eat 200 calories less a day. Easy!
So take these points in. Apply them. But remember it's much easier to avoid classic weight loss mistakes if you enlist professional help…in the form of a personal trainer, friend, hypnotherapist, nutritionist…whatever you need to make it happen. .
It may be too late to get that Giselle/Tom Daley tummy but you can still be fit and healthy by trying one of our top 5 summer activities to burn calories (Olympic style).
1 – Stand up paddle boarding. Known by those in the know as SUP, stand up paddle boarding is actually much easier than it looks. The boards are very wide and stable, so it's (fairly) easy to stay on. It's a great way to get out on the water and you will burn around 150 calories in just ½ an hour's paddling. You will also add lots of cool points. You can hire them at many locations throughout the UK and lessons are available: Check out the BSUPA for more details. Not in the olympics yet, but it's only a matter of time….
2 – Beach Volleyball. You don't have to be 8ft tall to play, so take inspiration from the Rio Olympics and have a go. No beach nearby? You can still play on a lawn or in your local park. Nets can be bought online and if you really want to be serious you can join a proper club at Volleyball England. Massive calorie burn at 255 in just 30 minutes. And don't forget the beach volleyball festival at Poole harbour
3 – Lawn Badminton. Go for your own personal gold on the lawn with some badminton. Nets are really easy and cheap to buy, and you don't need the latest carbon fibre rackets to play. Great fun for all the family, especially if there's a bit of a breeze!!! Insider tip – if it's a little windy, weight the shuttle down with some blue tack stuck inside the cone. You can even join a local club to make sure your children don't keep beating you. See more at badminton UK
4 – 5 a side football. A great way to socialise and also burn some calories, there are hundreds of 5 a side football clubs in the uk. But you don't need fancy astro turf to play, just get a couple of t-shirts for a small goal and get into some no-goalie 3 a side action in the park…or even in the car park! If you want to take it to the next step try the Powerleague. Burn a whopping 300 calories in ½ an hour.
5 – Cycling. Accessible, healthy, sociable and a great way to see your area. Plus you'll have bragging rights over any foreign cyclists you may see for the next 4 years. Get your lycra on or just head to the park with your kids. Torch through 200 calories every ½ hour as you travel greenly through the country…or city!
Research shows that fad diets have only short term results (at best) and can in fact be counter productive in the longer term; they cause adverse effects on human systems, from hormones to lean muscle mass to metabolism. This means that after the diet you are likely to get fatter than when you started. These fad diets are also mentally tough, frustrating and non-sustainable. If you can't keep it going, then it's unlikely that you'll keep the weight loss/health benefits going too. The very word "diet" is contentious. It actually means "what you eat", but in modern times the word has become inextricably linked to restrictive eating of some sort or another. So the healthy eating tricks below shouldn't be thought of as 'dieting" but as being healthy in a clever way.
These brain tricks are now known as "gastrophysics", although your gran would have known of at least few of them. They can have a profound effect on how full you feel, how much you serve yourself and how much you consume.
Using smaller plates and bowls is another of our healthy eating tricks that will make your brain think that you are eating more. It can't help but see more food on a smaller plate, even though the portions are exactly the same. This psychological trick is known is known as the "Delboef optical illusion". This is shown below where the two circles are the exact same size. But the left one is bigger. Is it?
It is also now known that using a bowl instead of a large plate is perceived by your brain to be more food, as the dish will appear to have more depth and volume.
Heavy cutlery also tricks the brain into thinking there's more food on offer than is actually the case. Heavy bowls and plates are proven to have the same effect.
So, eating on smaller plates and bowls with heavy cutlery is a great first step.
Make eating slower – making it difficult to eat will slow down the eating process. This gives the signals of being full time to reach the brain, so you will stop eating sooner. Using smaller cutlery, chewing food for longer, using chopsticks or Japanese spoons will all help you to eat less with no stress or feeling of dieting. Mindfulness is the key here. Be aware of what and how much you are eating.
Avoid TV dinners – if being aware of how much we are eating is key, then it's logical that distractions during eating are not a good thing. Distracting activities like TV, the internet and mobile phones all detract us, making us eat more. Up to 30% more research shows.
Eat with the senses – all of them! Take a moment before eating to smell the food and really take it in. A huge part of flavour comes from smell. So get more flavour without eating and you'll be less driven to get as much as you can when actually eating. Other brain tricks include holding a warm bowl and breathing between mouthfuls. The latter again gives a better sense of taste, thus fulness. Look at your food too. Take it in.
Go for texture – those eating apples will consume fewer calories than those eating apple puree. So choose foods that come with fibre and texture. Try to eat them in their natural state. Don't put vegetables into a bullet or juicer, eat vegetables!

Hi ladies
I had my second mmc at 10 weeks on 29/4, baby sadly only grew to 7+2 but I had no idea until a routine scan. I mc naturally at home, it was horrendous but my body seems to have recovered quicker than after my first mc which ended at 8 weeks and where I was given cyotec to move things along. My bleeding has lasted just over two weeks and I haven't had any now for nearly a week, in fact I think my body might be gearing up to ovulate although it's impossible to tell at this stage and OPKs have never worked for me. I just go by CM. A part of me is tempted to try again right away even though we've been offered mc testing now after two mcs and told to wait one cycle. It's so confusing to know what to do! So many people seem to go on to have successful pregnancies straight after mc and my body feels ready for another. Having said that, I'm terrified if we do fall pg and it fails again, I'll wish I'd waited and got testing done. Any similar experiences or advice? Thanks

what options other than a rebuild or used 5 speed do i have as mine is blown
85 landcruiser wagon with the 4 cyl diesel has fried the tranny. Rebuilds are huge cost, used a big risk. all the used ones we have looked at have bearing bits in pan and fifth slipping out. What else can i do?
1 Answer
unfortunately not much on the cheap, to put any other gearboxes in youll need conversion kits. the best bet is to pull it out yourself and dissasemble it, get a rebuild kit with bearings and gaskets preferably toyo (ebay 300-500 bucks) and take the gears in to get refaced and heat treated, youll save a fortune on rebuild costs. it wont be as cheap as a second hand one but then youll know you should get another 400 000 kms out of it. the 5 speed is a sturdy gearbox, mines done 396 000 and still drives like new the 5 speeds definitely a keeper!

Introducing a new anti-hero. Meade Breeze lives on the far outskirts of society with no visible means of support. He survives on his wits and a meager income derived from selling home-grown dope to suburban housewives and home-brewed rum to bums in the park.
He's also on the run from his past misdeeds. He fears it will all catch up with him someday, so he stays on the move aboard his classic trawler. Explore the Gulf Coast Islands, Florida Keys, and the Bahamas with Breeze, but keep one eye over your shoulder. His mission to return his dead wife's ashes to their special place seems hopeless. He's going nowhere fast until a chance encounter with a lover from his past changes his luck, or does it?

"great story"
loved it great story keeps you interested the whole way. if you love boats you will love this. if you don't love boats you will after reading or hearing this one. read very well
can't wait to listen a or read the next one
"good s that story. enjoyed listening to it."
good story, I enjoyed listening to it. only wished it was true. hope to be similar someday.
"I'm ready to buy a boat"
I listen to quite a few audio books and was very pleased with this one. This was my first experience with both Ed
Robinson as an author and Michael Naftel as a narrator. My hat is off to both. The story moves along nicely, and definitely reels you in from the start. Mr. Naftel's narration is spot on. His transition between characters is flawless as well as consistent. I would expect when I buy my boat and run into Breeze he will sound just like he did on the audio :)
Looking forward to the next one!
Very good read of a great story. Looking forward to the next book in series!
"Well performed and entertaining if not gripping"
The performance really makes this book more than it probably would be on its own. It's a mildly amusing tale, although I found it hard to sympathize with the principal character who initially funds his wandering lifestyle with money stolen from his boss. Still, the story did leave me wanting to know what happens next so in that respect it could be considered a success.
"Couldn't finish it"
As the owner of a trawler, I was not impressed. What kind of impression does this leave with non-boaters??? Hated the book so much I quit about half way through.
Have no opinion
"Excellent story and love the narrator! "
Great story, always leaves you wanting more. Loved the first three books and cant wait for the fourth to come out.
"Just give it a minute...."
I wasn't sure at first about this self published work, but soon got hooked and listened to all 3 books. This is nothing like his other books. Ed Robinson dives into fiction and gets true professionals to polish this work to a easy and enjoyable read.
"Great book"
I loved the story, great narration! I highly recommend this book, it was very entertaining.
"Not Too Shabby!"
This was a slower paced but fun story. Sometimes I like cruising a story at a slower pace, like island time. I like this flawed & likeable guy named Breeze. I'm looking forward to following him on his next adventures.

Does this sound familiar? You feel tired so you do less, but you feel you should try to do something, but you're tired; and so the cycle continues. Tiredness is an unfortunate fact of modern life, with 1 in 5 people feeling unusually tired at any one time, and while some causes are transparent others are less so. Time to put tiredness under the spotlight.
There are many very obvious reasons for tiredness. Working double shifts, getting up every night for the baby and so on. I'd first like to focus on some less obvious reasons. Certain physical illnesses and conditions are quite strongly associated with tiredness, especially if they involve some degree of pain. Chronic infections, anemia, liver, heart or breathing problems are similarly implicated. Glandular conditions such as hypothyroidism and diabetes, and muscular conditions such as myositis (muscle inflammation) or multiple sclerosis are all associated with tiredness.
Physical conditions such as those previously outlined rarely occur without psychological implications. Worries and stress about the condition and its implications can itself make the person feel tired, especially if the problem appears long-term or you can't see ways to resolve it. And as a common implication of stress and anxiety is insomnia or even depression the issue of tiredness is compounded. Unfortunately the treatments offered in relation to these conditions often come with a side effect of tiredness. Medications used for anxiety or depression are prime examples, although the worst effects generally pass after a short period.
Many people can't look to an illness as a cause of their tiredness but they might consider their physique and activity levels. For example, people who are underweight will find they simply don't have the musculature to go about daily tasks without feeling fatigued. People who are overweight will find they have to work harder to achieve the same results as a person of healthy weight.
Emotional reasons for tiredness aren't so easy to spot. But tiredness often follows stressful situations like bad news, friction in a relationship, and even changes in routine like planning a party, or moving house or job. Some of these issues may seem pleasurable but so far as the body is concerned they are placing extra demands on its capacity to respond. We also have to keep in mind that tiredness can result from placing too many personal demands, setting too high standards and worse still, seeing these standards fail or being frustrated.
So what's the answer? Well, given the fact that I've outlined several different reasons for tiredness it stands to reason that the answer depends on the cause. Aside from the specifics, like seeing your doctor to work out a possible cause of tiredness, I can perhaps suggest some more general strategies.
Broken sleep is a very common cause of tiredness so this can be tackled by attempts to establish a sleep routine. Cut out stimulation like the television, laptops or other mobile devices and keep the bedroom for sleeping. If you drink alcohol or coffee before you sleep, it is likely to either keep you awake or send you to sleep quickly and wake you early.
Asking someone who is tired to take exercise may seem like a tall order but it really works. Start simply and build up. Keep your expectations realistic and this goes for other aspects of life too! Finally, there is always the temptation to counteract tiredness by using one of the many products on the market, such as caffeine based drinks. These may be alright for short-term needs but you can't put off tiredness in this way for long. The same applies for vitamin supplements, diets that remove certain food groups (unless you actually know they cause a problem).

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Four months before and roll out their glamorous new home consoles, 's Wii U is foundering. This was the summer when Nintendo was supposed to leverage the fact that it has the only new home console out. Instead, Wii U seems to be losing consumer confidence completely even in Nintendo's home market. The new Famitsu weekly sales numbers from Japan reveal that Wii U sales slipped below 11 K units in the week ending July 28. During the same week, the ancient PS3 managed to top 11 K units even though Japanese consumers must be focusing on PS4 already. Handheld consoles grabbed 72% of total console sales in Japan in the last week of July as Nintendo's 3DS hit 55 K units in sales and PS Vita managed 17 K units.
The software sales tell us why Japanese developers are now abandoning Wii U. The latest Phoenix Wright game for 3DS sold a phenomenal 241 K units. This is a blockbuster series for Capcom and shows what a lucrative platform the 3DS still is for Japanese developers even as mobile app mania sweeps the country. The new Atlus title, "Dragon's Crown" sold a surprisingly solid 75 K units on Sony's PS Vita platform. For a new would-be franchise, it's more than a respectable number. PS Vita is still far behind 3DS in both hardware and software sales, but over this summer, it has demonstrated it may be able to carve out a niche as a minority handheld.
But Wii U's "LEGO City Undercover" sold a relatively dreadful 18 K units. Expectations were no higher, but this is yet another demonstration that Wii U cannot deliver tolerable sales numbers for third-party developers. Even when PS Vita's hardware sales are at a relatively tepid, sub-20 K weekly level, it can be a viable platform to launch new titles. Wii U is simply not performing as a software launch pad.
This summer effectively guaranteed that third-party developers will drop Wii U - Nintendo's decision not to deliver an aggressive, early price cut has sealed the deal. The new Sony and Microsoft consoles will suck up a lot of developer effort in 2014. But the continuing rise of the handheld console market in Japan also sets up an interesting confrontation when PS4 debuts this winter. Will Japanese consumers swing back to home console market - or has the Japanese market started turning structurally into a place where portable games dominate perpetually? 2013 was the year when iOS and Play mobile app markets made a big break-through in Japan, which used to be dominated by browser-based mobile games. and Google have triggered wild mobile app revenue growth - Japanese Google Play revenue grew by triple digits in 1Q 2013 from the previous quarter. A company called GungHo managed to top $100 M in monthly app revenue for "Puzzle & Dragons" in April, largely on Japanese and Korean sales. The combination of explosive mobile app growth and the strength of 3DS and PS Vita portable sales may turn the PS4 launch in its home market a tricky project.

Cosmopolitan Justice
By (author) Darrel Moellendorf
Format: Paperback
Checking availability...
Cosmopolitan Justice by Darrel Moellendorf
Book DescriptionIncreasing global economic integration and recent military interventions in the name of human rights have forced questions of global justice into political discussions. Is the unequal distribution of wealth across the globe just? What's wrong with imperialism? Are the most indebted countries obligated to pay back their loans to international financial institutions? What, if any, restrictions may be placed on immigration? Is economic protectionism just? Does respecting state sovereignty prohibit intervening in the affairs of other states? May interventions which curtail human rights abuses be just? What is the moral basis of international law? Cosmopolitan Justice takes on these questions in the course of presenting a systematic account of global duties of justice.Many contemporary accounts of justice take its scope to be limited to the state. And, when attention is paid to international justice, the objects of moral concern are states. Moreover, there is a growing trend amongst political philosophers and theorists to argue that nationality presents a source of special moral duties. Cosmopolitan Justice argues against these views, and the book also provides a justification of global duties of justice, which are owed to all persons, regardless of their citizenship or nationality. The book applies this perspective to a number of international issues.

The globalization of trade, investment, and finance continues apace. Many have benefited from this, but deep inequalities persist.

For those who take seriously human dignity, equality is a basic presumption of social institutions.
