The two other sons of Robert were Henry and Alfred.
Alfred's tenure in the company was short lived as he decided to branch out and started a sanitary ware factory in Queenborough in Kent which was very successful.
Henry's contribution to the company was somewhat mixed and he increasingly became something of a dreamer although his lifestyle belied the fact – he had a particular penchant for Rolls Royce's. He had four sons, one killed in the First World War, three who came into the ceramic business. Robert ran a subsidiary company,Johnson Fireclay, but inherited the family's love of alcohol and died very young as a result; Grindley was asked to leave as factory life was not for him and he became a parson ( and an amateur wrestler )and Frank Garnett who followed in his father's footsteps and did little to enhance the development of the business and preferred to spend the time enjoying the fruits of others.
As in all family businesses, the successful development of Johnson Brothers in the early decades of the 20th Century was due to the abilities of one or two driven members.

How Summer Interns Get Full-Time Offers
–Sheer Suckers, The Leveraged Sellout
As we approach the end of the summer and move into the fall recruiting season, all the summer banking interns out there have to think about their next moves.
The first step in that process: figuring out whether you're getting a full-time offer, or whether you'll have to search for "strategic employment alternatives."
While there's never a 100% accurate way to tell if you're getting an offer or not, you can improve your chances considerably if you know how banks make decisions.
Who Decides Your Fate: Key Decision Makers
Back when I wrote about the investment banking interview selection process, I indicated that Managing Directors ultimately decide who gets full-time offers and who does not. Everyone else plays a role in the process, but they have the final say.
The summer selection process is similar but differs in a few key respects:
- Analysts (and Associates) who have worked most closely with the summer interns have significant clout and suggest to the senior bankers what to do
- You're judged almost entirely on the quality of your work – not responses to interview questions, your wardrobe or anything extraneous
- Sometimes it's easier to get a full-time position following an internship (this doesn't mean it's easy – just easier)
During a summer internship you'll mostly be interacting with Analysts and Associates – so they'll have a large say in who gets offers and who does not.
If you do, in fact, work directly with more senior bankers (VPs and up) then they will weigh in as well.
But the process differs substantially from full-time interviews because you generally won't say much to the MDs during your internship.
Behind Closed Doors: The Decision-Making Process
The decision-making process for summer interns works differently from bank to bank, but typically there is a "round-table" near the end of the summer where everyone discusses the interns' performance and who should receive offers.
Back in my previous article on how to do well in your summer internship, I advised you to work with as many people as possible and take on as much responsibility as you can handle.
Now you see why: if you work with more bankers, more people will "go to bat" for you during this round-table discussion.
The fastest way to not receive an offer? Have no one vouch for you during this discussion.
The Competition: Just How Tough Is It To Get An Offer?
Competition to receive full-time offers after a summer internship is less intense than what you'd expect. It's significantly easier to get a full-time offer this way vs. going into full-time recruiting with no previous internship.
Many summer interns are just testing the waters or are not sure they want to do banking, so they "drop out" in the middle and stop trying as hard once they realize it's no longer for them.
And some interns are simply so bad that no one even considers giving them offers.
At some banks, competition tends to be tougher – Goldman, for example, is notorious for giving out summer offers at lower rates than other banks.
The other consideration: when the economy is poor, banks will also hire fewer summer interns.
Analysts vs. Associates
I've received some questions on Analyst vs. Associate summer internships, but have not addressed this topic until now because they're almost the same.
In general, expectations for Associates will be set higher and they'll be given a bit less busy work and more "real" work, but any summer intern at a bank is treated similarly – they assist full-time Analysts and Associates with getting work done.
The offer process is also similar for Summer Associates – they receive a "yes" or "no" based on the input of everyone they've worked closely with.
Analysts might have less say in the process, but it's nearly identical otherwise.
How To Improve Your Offer Chances
So how do you improve your chances of getting a full-time offer? I've already covered this one in my previous collection of summer internship advice articles, but the one point I'll re-emphasize here is that you want to please those you work most closely with – the junior bankers.
Some summer interns try to bypass them completely and go directly to VPs and up with their work. This is a mistake – you'll annoy the Analyst you're working with and possibly look foolish in front of someone much higher up on the ladder (see: Investment Banking Summer Internship Don'ts on The All-Nighter).
Aside from that, there's no magic – above all, don't screw up and don't get into embarrassing drunken situations with your MD and you'll be golden.

Hi M&I,
I would like to ask about the chances of delaying FT IBD offer in London tier 1 bank by a year.
I am graduating in 2019 and I am doing a summer internship in BB this summer. After securing the summer offer, I looked at my long-term options and I am now considering doing a finance-related Masters programme after my undergraduate studies.
How do banks look at such applicants? Do you think there is a possibility, given that I perform well and they want to give me the FT job after the summer, to delay the offer by a year? Possibly doing another summer internship in a different group of the same bank in 2019?
Thanks for any advices!
Is 'Co-op Programme Student Trainee' also considered for full-time offers?
Would you advise to already start recruiting for FT after you get an off-cycle offer? And why (not)?
You spoke specifically about how Goldman is famous for their low summer analyst to full time analyst conversion rate. Would you happen to have any further insight into the actual percentage or possibly a rough estimate of the conversion rate?
I have been selected for a fast-track full-time analyst recruitment process at a BB 2 weeks ago. I passed the first round last week and went to the final round this week. Today the HR told me that she will come back to me in the coming weeks to tell me if I got an offer. So I was wondering, since we are at the end of August and summer internships are not over, and that I do not think I was bad at interviews (I had 2 positive feedbacks in interviews and one interview in which I did not impress my interviewer but did nothing wrong on a technical or fit basis), if I am in the B-list of candidates or if they do not know yet how many full-time offer they will be able to allocate to the recruitment of full-time analyst this year …
Do you have any idea?
Hey M&I,
Had a strange political question at winning the offer. I'm in a group that is very non-hierarchical and where the boss works quite closely with analyst and me. There is no formal hierarchy and everyone treats each other casually.
I'm wondering whether the same guidelines apply to me as well. Should I please the analyst I work with and make his life a heaven? Or should I also sometimes display my work in front of my boss, by possibly inciting the possibility of me looking presumptuous in front of the analyst? The boss is very casual, straightforward and talks to me directly. Just wondering what is the optimal method here. Both are going to evaluate my work at the end of the summer for me.
Hi, I've received and accepted a summer analyst 2015 offer to join a BB IBD Generalist group in Dubai. The team is relatively small as you would expect, how would I make I get a return offer from the team? I presume it would be harder considering everyone in the group would need to be happy with me as they're a small team.
When was this post written? More broadly, where can I find the time stamps for the articles in this website? I can't tell when they're written.
Hello Nicole,
I had a summer internship with a Bank in Investment Management and absolutely loved my experience. Fortunately, I received a full time offer to return next summer in July. I will be returning to the same office location that I worked in this summer, which is only about 10 minutes from my university. I had an excellent summer and I would love to return full-time, however, I had decided to go to school one additional semester next Fall to take 2-3 classes I have always wanted to and have extra scholarship money that I want to use up––and then graduate in the winter, rather than in May.
The job is 40 hours a week and rarely ever any overtime––unlike investment banking––and it would definitely be doable to work full time and take 2-3 evening classes in that final semester. However, the offer states that one of the terms is "successful completion of my degree." Given that my school is literally 10 minutes away from the job and I would have finished my Economics degree requirements and can prove this by way of my transcript, but would just be choosing to stay an additional semester to take a few extra classes that I never had the opportunity to take earlier––do you think this is something I would lose the offer over or get fired if it was discovered I decided to take another semester of courses part time? I would just be graduating a semester later––so it wouldn't be like I got an offer, and then just decided not to finish school. And it wouldn't interfere with my success at my job.
I am so worried to ask the recruiter because I really loved the job so much this summer and the office that I worked in, and I don't want to lose the opportunity. In the world of full time offers, do Banks actually ask for a copy of a diploma to verify that you have graduated by the time you start the job?
Thanks for the advice!
Context: Graduate (2013), BA (Hons), MSc in Accounting/Finance
I really need some advice urgently. I have been doing an internship at an M&A boutique over the summer, and they were happy to extend my internship on a rolling basis i.e. at the end of each month, they'll review my performance and, if positive, they will extend it by an extra month and so on and so forth. My question is that the firm only hires analyst with previous FIG experience (as it is a FIG specialist M&A advisory). So most analyst here have either worked in Big 4 and IBs for couple of years. I've been working here for four months, I have two previous M&A internships (2 months each).
Should I request for a full-time analyst position? I'm conscious of the fact that they'll reject my proposition outright as I don't come from the traditional background they look for and therefore jeopardise my current internship at the firm. Is there any way I could spin my "FIG" experience at the firm to make it sound more impressive? How can I best position myself to make the request?
I just found out about my rotations in the summer (IBD) and I was sort of disappointed because neither groups are what I have preferred. Just want to know your thoughts on what I should do? I realize of course I still need to do a good job nonetheless and build a good reputation but is there anything else I can do to perhaps have a chance to work in the group I prefer if I do get return? (I heard usually you get returned to the one of the rotations in your internship)
Should I contact the senior bankers and express my eagerness to return to the bank when I graduate? I'm still waiting for the final results…
Hi Brian,
Love the site. I interned at a BB (IBD) this summer and received a return offer. However, I want to work as a full-timer in a different office (say LA/San Francisco) due to personal reasons. They said that they would consider me if the opportunity in LA comes up.
If I apply to different groups within IBD, could the group that I worked for take back the offer. Also, if I decide to stay with them and they know that I applied to other groups, will that affect my opportunity to move to LA in the future? Thanks a lot!
I'm currently about halfway through a summer internship in asset management at a bulge bracket bank in a regional office of my 1st choice location. I absolutely love the work I'm doing – it's a pretty interesting & unique role with both direct impact to revenue/visible deal flow and sits close to clients, though not PWM or PB. Anyhow, I love it here (the place), as well as the team and people. My biggest concern is how to best attempt to get an offer HERE with the bank in this role. Do summer interns get considered/potentially placed to return to their location and team of their internship, or do they get hired by the firm and placed in headquarters in NY or otherwise at a random regional office on a random/diff team?
Also, could you elaborate a little on the final performance review and offer/no-offer decision process & timeline? (if the internship were to end the first week in Aug., when/how/from whom would an intern learn of the offer decision?)
Hi Brian,
Love the site. Am just wondering your advice if you make a really great impression with all the MDs at the internship interview? (One said I was too smart to work there- I don't agree). Basically I now have their emails, and all responded after the interview saying how great it was to meet me, hear my story and how they want me on their desk in the summer. How can I create a relationship with them that will help me get the offer but not make the analysts/associates think I'm a complete d****bag? (I'm not really, although I know how this post comes across!!)
I'm a fourth year (graduating jan 2014) and have been interested in banking for years but never decided to take the plunge until now…the only experience I have is a 8-month work term with an insurance company (sales). Am I screwed?
How often do banks hire recent grads into their summer internship programs (I'm under the impression that they are only for 3rd year undergrads)? Let's say for instance, the student would like more internship experience before choosing a career route full-time.
Just wondering if you know approximately how long after applications close for internships, do we find out if we have or have not received offers?
Also, do banks let you know how youve done on the aptitude tests, or what else let you down, preventing you from receiving an offer.
In my second week as summer analyst intern at BB(IB ). Firat week went smooth since there was intensive orientation. However, although it's been only a few days, there does not seem to be much work coming my way. How do I handle this?
If you complete a summer internship at a bulge-bracket investment bank and they offer you a full-time job for after you graduate, are you able to defer the offer by a year under any circumstances? I have to complete mandatory military service straight after graduating which will last a year – what's the likely response from the bank? Will they defer or simply see this as a reason to not offer me the job? Any experiences with this kind of thing?
I am about to accept an IB internship at a bulge bracket this summer. However, I do not turn 21 until the fall. Will this be a problem in terms of drinking/socializing/Happy Hours? What is the proper protocol? Is there an unwritten rule? I don't want to be seen as a stick in the mud.
Thanks so much!
Love the site.
I had a internship this past summer, my division's director told me that he wanted me back as did the director of the division next to mine in the office. How do I go about soliciting full time offers from either division? I am not entirely sure I want to go back to that firm though but I did enjoy my experience there. I am going through recruiting now and would like to consider my options, so how do I get an offer without necessarily accepting it?
I got a full time offer at a bulge bracket (most paying on wall street) after a summer internship in IBD. After a lot of thought, I decided I'm better off pursuing a masters. Any thoughts on this? What's your outlook on a Masters? Thanks.
Dear Brian,
I will be reading for a Master's degree in Economics starting in September 2011. I have just graduated BA Economics and Chinese Studies with First Class Honours. As I explained before, I was unable to apply for an internship as my penultimate year was spent studying in Shanghai, China.
I want to apply for an internship this year with a view to getting a full-time role at an investment bank. While you have stated it is possible for a Master's student to get an internship, my dilemma is that the deadline for the full-time programs is about October-November, which is far before the deadline for internship programs, which are roughly about January 2012.
1) Would you know if it is possible to apply to both the internship and graduate programmes, or can you only apply for one in each year?
2)If a candidate completes an internship successfully, will he/she automatically get a full-time offer when finished the internship, as I would be available to work straight after the Master's degree, or are there still no guarantees?
3) I'm concerned that maybe as a Master's student it is too late for me to be applying for internships. Should I just apply for the graduate programmes?
I would be grateful for your assistance with my questions as well as any additional advice you can give me as to how a student in my position should ideally apply for full-time investment banking positions.
Internship season is coming to an end. Do you recommend that I send a thank you letter to all of my supervisors and colleagues I worked closely for, would a nice thank you e-mail at the end suffice, or should I just do nothing but thank them all on the last day and discuss my progress?
Hi Brian,
I recently graduated with a bachelor's degree in Economics and Chinese Studies from an Irish university, attaining a Double First Class Honours. I will be studying for a Master's degree in Economics starting from September. I did not get the chance to do an internship in my penultimate year as I was studying in China for that year where I would not be legally permitted to work. Following on I have two questions:
1. Is it possible for a Master's student to get a summer internship,even though they are primarily aimed at penultimate year students?
2. Is it advisable to do an internship first or just apply directly to a graduate programme if doing a Master's degree?
3. On the Goldman Sachs website they state the following: "Candidates currently pursuing a college or university degree may apply for a summer analyst internship. If you are currently pursuing an MBA or advanced degree, we invite you to apply for a summer associate internship." Would a Master's degree in Economics be considered as an advanced degree in this respect, or are banks looking strictly at MBA students with several years work experience for this type of internship?
Do only seniors who are summer interns get return offers?
Hi Brian,
My bank is asking the summer interns to submit profiles for the senior management and everyone else to get to know us in advance and during the internship. One question is to write about our hobbies, extra activities or interests. What kind of impression should I make here? that I am fun to hang out with? easy-going?
Just wanted to say I have found this site one of the most usefully tools yet.
I am in a unique situation because of my lack of corporate and banking experience. I started a successful marketing company 6 years ago and now looking to get into a PE group. I applied to top full-time mba programs but just got wait listed. I currently live in NYC and was thinking about going to NYU part-time and trying to find a nonpaid internship with a PE group. First, is finding a nonpaid internship possible or should I try again next year to apply to full time programs?
Thanks for all your great advice.
This is a bit of a stupid question but I just wanted to ask what's the views on a intern who does not drink? Does it make a difference?
How does the intern go about this? Or should they just try to be sociable?
Thanks for such great tips!
I'm guessing everyone there over the summer is hardworking and try to make no simple mistake. Then what differentiates those returning interns from those poor guys who fail to get return offer? Is it the way you interact with your team matters the most, given everyone has good attitude and is willing to learn/work hard?
And I heard from some insiders that the feedbacks are almost all positive, it's more about reading how good.
Having said that, do you have to be exceptionally good to get exceptionally good feedback that set you apart from those average interns?
Hi, and thank you for bunch of Info on Website. Can you Tell me when should i apply for internship? After First Year, Third or someother? Thank you
I have an internship this summer working risk management for a BB. It's a three year associate program but I'm only a sophomore right now. Any idea how my situation will be handled if I'll be in school for another two years whereas everyone else will be out this year or next?
Firstly, I'd like to thank you for all the insights and information into banking and internships.
I am currently interning at Credit Suisse and doing rotations on the Sales and Trading floor. At the start of every rotation I am assigned a meeting with the VP/Director/MD, I am given a introductory presentation prior to meeting them and have to form questions for my meeting. Therefore I wanted to ask, what sort of questions would impress the MD. I have already met a couple of VP's so far and I am finding that I don't have questions that would intrigue them and don't want to ask the same general questions. I know this is sort of vague and may be asking for too much with too little information but if you could advise me towards the right direction would be very helpful!
Also what are the chances of landing an IB summer Internship with a high 2.1/1.1 degree from the best university in Ireland and a summer internship with the leading stockbroking firm in Ireland?
Is it possible to get a summer internship in an IB the summer you graduate from an undergrad?
Hi M&I:
Would it be better to intern at the same bank for 2 years and leverage that into a bb internship as a rising senior? Or would it be better to intern with one bank the first year, and a different bank the 2nd year to 'diversify' your resume & experience?
It seems to me like you may come off as not being 'loyal' to your firm or something like that.
What are my chances of landing a summer internship at a BB right after freshman year in a "Little Ivy" school? Do "Little Ivies" (Swarthmore, Williams, Armherst etc.) count as target schools as well?
Would a full-time offer be conditional on your results from second-year study (e.g. if your internship is in the summer after second year)?
I've read your blog religiously over the past two years. I'm in the middle of a graduate recruiting process for a full-time analyst position next year. You probably get ticked off when people read your blog and say "Oh well, this is all common sense you haven't really said anything."
If it was common sense, then why do only 1-2% of people make it? I'll be keeping in touch with you soon Brian. Our first session will be gratitude and thanks. Our second session will probably involve me attempting to strangle you for giving me the opportunity to sell my soul to an investment bank :)
hey M&I
I know a guy working for DB in treasury department of the global market and banking as a Director. Shd i network with him or treasury has nothing to do with Investment Bankings ??
I did my summer at a major European IB (summer associate) but didnt get an offer-so I have several full time interviews next week. Would this make a difference at the questions they ask? i.e. less behavioral, more tailored towards the detailed roles I took in the projects etc? What would be the most important thing on their minds?
How should one position himself for the full time recruiting process when asked the question, "did you get an offer?" if the boutique investment bank they worked for, for the summer was just a experience internship?
I am currently in my senior year of college graduating with a degree in Finance and not really sure which direction to take. I am interested in investment banking and wanted to get a masters in Financial engineering/ computational finance and then later on go to business school and get a JD/MBA in finance. I was wondering if it is necessary to take that additional step to get a degree in financial engineering in order to brake into the ever competitive world of finance. My dream job is in VC but was told that VC firms look for individuals who have done some time in Investment banking or Private Equity. Don't get me wrong, I love investment banking.
This may be a dumb question, but how is it that banks select people who aren't sure banking is for them? Given the competitive nature of the field, why and how would they select someone just testing the waters?
For summer internships, I know that a lot of companies want you to be in your penultimate year. I was wondering, what if you do a double major? Or start to complete your degree part time within your rising senior year (which may possibly take an extra year longer than Full Timer's)? Should i wait until i am actually completing my 2nd last year of college or until I'm doing penultimate year subjects?
So, we have midterm summer analyst reviews coming up next week. Is it to late to turn around things if you have been doing something wrong, or if you improve on what you were doing wrong things will be okay.
Given that banks probably hired summer classes in smaller sizes this year, do you think they will hire more of their summer analyst classes?
I know that generally rising seniors are the ones who get internships, but how often/plausible is it to try and get an internship after your sophomore year of college at a top 5 business school?

Fashion magazines are really having a hard time with this whole "accurate representation of the female body" thing that we crazy ladies are clamoring for. I mean, they're trying, kind of. But man, they just can't seem to get it right. Like, for example, when Numéro magazine recently airbrushed model Karlie Kloss... to make her look less thin (click here for before and after photos). Sorry, Numéro. Close, but no body-positive cigar.
Karlie Kloss, who is very thin, has frequently been the subject of critique. Her nude photos in Vogue Italia caused a whirlwind of epic proportions when they-unsurprisingly-landed on every pro-ana and thinspo blog from here to the moon.** Which maybe explains why Numéro went this route; they were probably trying to avoid ending up in the center of a PR problem. Or maybe they just did it for aesthetic reasons and really don't care even a tiny bit about how women feel about themselves. Either way, here they are, because airbrushing the ribs off a thin model is every bit as disturbing as whittling away thighs and tummies.
Naturally, the Daily Mail, who broke the story and got the photos, has some weird and negative and generally icky things to say about this whole situation, but that's a conversation for never. What I really want to address is why this is yet another swing-and-miss by yet another fashion magazine.
As we've discussed before, airbrushing models to make them look thinner is obviously not what women are looking for when they ask magazines to keep it real. No more removed limbs, so more shaving down of waists. Just no more of that. But that doesn't mean that airbrushing thin models to make them look fatter (which is a thing) is what we want, either. Because it isn't.
So, magazines, I want to tell you, explicitly, exactly what women want from you to make us feel better about ourselves and the world we live in:
We want you to cast models of all shapes and sizes, without calling them out or making a big deal of it, and we want you to use little to no airbrushing of said models.
That's it. That's how you get it right. OK, class is dismissed.
**Of course, the editor of the magazine later came out swinging against the pro-ana community and those who make thinspo-esque photos, and said she'd put her foot down about that particular spread... but then the magazine kept right on doing the same thing, so it appears that no lesson was learned. Shocking!

Born Amethyst Amelia Kelly, but known professionally as Iggy Azalea, she's an Australian recording artist and model probably best known for her songs "P*ssy" and "Two Times." She took the name Iggy from her childhood dog, Iggy Pop. Her debut studio album The New Classic was released in April 2014.
She told Hot 97 that she won't crowd surf anymore, or will be much more careful, after some concert-goers tried to finger her. "They think I'm really slutty, like, 'Oh, she got a song called P*ssy, I know what she wants. She wants these two fingers.'"
Though Iggy Azalea was born near Sydney, her family moved to a small town in New South Wales, which is where Iggy was raised. Her mother is a painter and comics artist and her mother is a cleaner.
Related: Which Country Has The Hottest Women?
Iggy Azalea began rapping when she was 14 years-old and names Tupac Shakur and Missy Elliot among her influences. She even formed a neighborhood band with two other girls, but it fizzled out because the other girls didn't take it seriously. She asked, "Does being from the country mean I'm a p*ssy or soft? Because the country where I'm from is hard. People there are tough as nails. I wouldn't f*ck with anyone from there."
Iggy Azalea dropped out of high school as she didn't like school other than her art class. She also said she was teased for her homemade outfits and didn't have many friends. Rather, she worked with her mother in order to earn money.
When she was 16, she moved to the United States. "I was scared, but I was more scared of what would happen if I stayed where I was. It wasn't just about going somewhere to become a rapper. It was about going somewhere to feel like I could fit in."
As for rapping with a Southern American accent, Iggy Azalea said, "I lived in the South for five years…the people who taught me to rap are all from the South and so was the music I had listened to as a teen." She leans towards rap because "I think music talks to you on an emotional level, regardless of where you're from. I guess I related to the tempo of rap, the aggressiveness."
In 2012, she signed on to become a model. That same year, she was announced as the "New Face of Levi Jeans."
Iggy Azalea stays in shape by running and once took the "30 day squat challenge." Aside from music, she said, "People think I'm more wild than I am…I like going to theme parks, play sports or just hanging out with friends."

An Uphall couple who lost five stone between them in a bid to get healthy are now set to take on a extreme fitness challenge to raise money for charity.
Duncan and Donna Howard decided to lead a healthier and more active lifestyle in a bid to try and shed the pounds in late 2013.
And their determination and commitment has paid off, with Duncan (39) dropping from 14st 5lb to just under 12st, while Donna (37) now weighs 10st 3lb after losing just under three stone.
They are now preparing to take on the Mighty Deerstalker event, which is the toughest off-road run in the UK, for Cancer Research on March 15.
The Innerleithen route covers 10 kilometres and features a mixture of steep ascents, water crossings, forest trails and various natural and man-made obstacles, with up to 2500 participants set to take part.
Duncan said he was inspired to make changes to his lifestyle last August after receiving some strong wake-up calls.
He said: "A couple of things happened. An old school friend of mine had a stroke aged 38 and doctors blamed his lifestyle. I also ran in the Gala Day dad's 60 metres race, where I won but took about 10 minutes to recover and get my breath back.
"It was about a lifestyle change, I suppose. It was just getting to that point: things were getting out of hand.
"Donna and I actually did different things. I started off with nutrition, food and eating healthy. I downloaded an app for my phone and was basically watching what I was eating. Then I joined the local gym and got a programme made up.
"Last October Donna joined Slimming World and then the gym."
Despite both embarking on the healthy mission, the couple did not find much time to actually work out together.
Duncan said they had to strike the right balance when finding time to exercise as they dealt with their hectic work schedules and looking after their four young children.
However, he said he now always looks to fit in a few gym sessions each week and can't wait to take on the extreme challenge.
Duncan added: "I exercise more now because I feel better for it. I will go to the gym three times a week.
"Our first goal is completing the Mighty Deerstalker and then in October we are looking at doing the Men's Health Survival of the Fittest event through in Edinburgh.
"Location was a part of choosing the Deerstalker. It is being held in a lovely part of the world, although I'm not expecting to be standing still long enough to have a look around.
"We think it is a big enough challenge for us and it is meant to have a great atmosphere."
The couple decided to raise cash for Cancer Research as the disease has directly affected some of their loved ones.
Duncan said: "This is the first time I've done any sort of sponsorship since school so I wasn't sure what a good fundraising target to put up online was.
"We went with £250 but we are already on our way to reaching that.
"My wife and I have had family and friends who have been affected by cancer.
"We have seen some undergo treatment and recover but we have also lost others so it is a charity which is close to our hearts."

The Internet is a great place to research and learn about franchising. There are many websites, blogs, and ezines filled with franchising news and information. There's so many good franchise resources, in fact, that the sheer amount of information available may become overwhelming (yes, we're officially in the "Too Much Information Age").
"Money can't buy happiness." As much as this is a commonly held belief, there is still a misconception in franchising that "as long as franchisees are making money, they're happy."
One of the responsibilities of a franchisor (and its development team) is to establish realistic franchisee expectations. Of course, this includes an accurate disclosure of expected return on investment, but it needs to go beyond "the numbers."
We are experiencing a dramatic increase in individuals reaching retirement age. As with other parts of the economy, it is our expectation that some segments of franchising will undergo dramatic changes as more people contemplate retirement.
I am often asked what it takes to become a world-class franchise. The answer is simple, but far from easy to achieve.

Lecture: Javier Sicilia
April 16, 4pm
(program in Spanish with English interpreter)
Javier Sicilia is a leading Mexican poet, essayist, novelist, and journalist who stopped writing following his son's murder, and took to the streets to campaign against the drug-cartel fueled violence spreading through the country.
One of the Featured Protesters in Time Magazine's Person of the Year Issue, Sicilia is the founder of the nonviolent, anti-violence group Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity (MPJD). Since its inception in March 2011, the group has campaigned against the spreading criminal and state violence in Mexico.
Sicilia's visit to Chicago is intended to raise awareness of the MPJD movement and to raise funds to bring the "peace caravan" to the United States in the summer of 2012. The caravan was organized in protest against the onslaught of drug-related violence that has cost Mexico 40,000 dead and at least 9,000 unsolved "disappearances" since 2006.

Most recent volume
Volume 7. Process IntegrationPublished: 14th February 2006 Author: Mahmoud M. El-Halwagi
With growing global competition, the process industries must spare no effort in insuring continuous process improvement in terms of Increasing profitability; Conservation of resources and Prevention of pollution.
The question is how can engineers achieve these goals for a given process with numerous units and streams? Until recently conventional approaches to process design and operation put emphasis only on individual units and parts of the process. A more powerful integrated approach was lacking. The new field of Process Integration looks towards the processing plant as a whole in its attempt to find solutions and improvements. Research over the past two decades has resulted in many techniques that allow engineers to better understand complex facilities and significantly enhance their performance. This textbook presents a comprehensive and authoritative treatment of the concepts, tools and applications of Process Integration. Emphasis is given to systematic ways of analyzing process performance. Graphical, algebraic and mathematical procedures are presented in detail. In addition to covering the fundamentals of the subject, the book also includes numerous case studies and examples that illustrate how Process Integration is solving actual industrial problems.

Tropical Storm Isaac heads to Florida
People in Florida have been feeling the first effects of Tropical Storm Isaac as it nears the US coastline.
After lashing the Florida Keys overnight, Isaac is now heading towards the northern Gulf Coast.
Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama have followed Florida in declaring states of emergency.
Hundreds of flights have been cancelled and oil and gas production is affected by a storm that has already killed at least nine, including eight in Haiti.
The Republican Party has delayed by a day the start of its convention.
Low-lying areas to the north of the Gulf of Mexico are on flood alert. Some mandatory evacuation orders are in place, says the BBC's Jonny Dymond, in Tampa, Florida.
Alabama Governor Robert Bentley has cancelled his visit to the Republican national convention in the Florida city of Tampa and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal may do the same, as they prepare emergency responses in their states.
Oil output cut
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) said that at 06:00 GMT on Monday, Isaac was centred about 110 miles (175km) west of Key West, Florida, with wind speeds of 65 mph (105km/h) with some higher gusts, and could reach hurricane force in the next 24 hours.
On Monday, Isaac was expected to move over the eastern Gulf of Mexico, the NHC said.
Fed by the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Isaac is expected to strengthen to a Category 2 hurricane with winds of 105mph (170km/h), and make landfall on Tuesday or Wednesday, somewhere between Florida and Louisiana.
There is also a chance it may hit New Orleans on the seventh anniversary of the devastating Hurricane Katrina.
Isaac is already a large storm and could bring significant damage to areas within 200 miles of its centre.
The Florida Keys have been experiencing rain and strong winds, our correspondent says.
Residents have boarded up windows and put down sandbags.
A steady stream of cars has carried people north along the sole road linking the Keys to the Florida mainland.
Hundreds of flights have been cancelled in and out of Miami, Fort Lauderdale and other southern Florida airports.
Power cuts have affected communities from Key West to Fort Lauderdale, hitting more than 6,000 customers.
The US Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement says about 24% of the Gulf of Mexico's oil production and 8% of its gas output have been shut off as a precaution.
BP has shut down oil production in the Gulf and is evacuating its platforms there.
Hurricane watches have been put in place along the coastlines of western Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and south-eastern Louisiana.
Florida Governor Rick Scott declared a state of emergency there to make sure emergency services would be ready when the storm hit.
The Republican party has postponed until Tuesday the opening of the convention that will formally nominate Mitt Romney as its presidential candidate
The storm has already caused havoc in the Caribbean, bringing death and considerable damage to Haiti, and floods and downed power lines to Cuba.
Three people were missing in the Dominican Republic, officials said, including the mayor of a town near Santo Domingo, who was later confirmed dead.

You have so many contemporary rugs. I'm feeling a overwhelmed. Is there a way to only see the contemporary rugs that come in an 8' x 11' size?
Julie, we do have a way for you to search by a specific size in a Contemporary rug search. In the left part of this page you should see two drop-downs. They are labeled "Width" and "Length". Remember to also have the 'Contemporary' option selected or you will just return any rug that comes in a size of 8' wide and 11' long. If you want to be more specific you can also search for a specific size. So let's say you want to only see rugs that are exactly 8' x 11' ( not 8'1" x 11" or 8' x 11'6"). You can do this by looking at our 'Custom Size' button within our Size container. I've included two links in this response.
1 - Contemporary rugs that come in a size of 8' to 8'11" wide and a length of 11' to 11'11" long. http://plushrugs.com/search/?length=11&page=1&style=1&width=8

We encourage any discussion or questions concerning this product. Our goal is to personally respond to any questions placed during business hours within 30 minutes.

We gather on Wednesday evenings for dinner followed by digging into the Bible and the Stuck Study by Jennie Allen. Childcare provided. Please sign up with Lisa for this study (meets March 30-May 25).
Jennie Allen writes, "Our stuck places are the very places that make us ache for God, leading us to Him and His freedom. God's never been one to tie up our problems with little pretty bows and send us on our way. We wrestle and as we wrestle on this journey, we depend entirely on him. We are inadequate to fix our lives…. and we have a relationship building God who likes to move in and settle in holes within us that hurt. I want us to band together as women and grow and live and experience God."
I am looking forward to meeting with you weekly to talk about the stuck places and invite God to meet us in those spaces and learn more about His love for us!

Laws on sales advertised as going out of business vary by state. Some states have guidelines that specify how much time after the sale a business can hold the sale again, while other states require that the business stays closed for a certain amount of time.Continue Reading
For example, in Ohio, any business owner who holds a going out of business sale is not allowed to reopen or open a similar business within 12 months of the sale. In Texas, the law only specifies that a business is limited to one such sale every two years. In most states, businesses are required to disclose to the authorities the sale's length and the merchandise that needs to be sold. Some states require paperwork proving the company's dissolution following the sale.Learn more about Marketing & Sales


text: GBAtemp.net review of the... Wiinja aka: Wiinja, Wii Modchip. Manufactured by: Team Ninja By shaunj66 and Costello - 7th January 2007 Review Contents & Index: Introduction - Official feature list Packaging About the chip Installation Setting up & Using - Compatibility tests - Disc Read Errors Conclusion Introduction Welcome to another GBAtemp hardware review. This time; we're taking a step away from the normal realm of handhelds to review a console modchip. The Wii has been available for approximately only 4 months at the time of this review, and we're already starting to see the first modchips produced to circumvent protection and allow the playing of game back-ups on regular DVD media. Nintendo left the serial port connections open and available on the Wii DVD drive, much like they did with the Gamecube. All current Wii modchips "attack" the DVD drive via this serial connection. They override code on the drive to "trick" the Wii into believing a game burned onto any regular writable DVD disc is an original. This also allows for playing Gamecube backups on the Wii. Unfortunately, right from the start (and this goes for all the other (3) current Wii modchips) the team have specifically said that this modchip does not implement region free functionality. Due to the methods used by the modchips, it currently seems impossible for them to allow for region free loading. And as the Wiinja is non-updateable, even if a method was found, the Wiinja would still not be able to implement it. So this means you're only going to be able to boot backups from the same region as your Wii console. That means; PAL games on a PAL console, NTSC-U on an NTSC-U console and NTSC-J games on an NTSC-J console. This applies to both Wii games AND Gamecube games. Though, Gamecube game regions can be worked around by booting up a piece of homebrew software that will allow you to swap over discs to boot a foreign game. Official Feature List: Non Swap / Direct Boot Boots Own Region WII Backups Directly Boots Own Region Gamecube Backups Directly Boots Imports Gamecube Backups by SWAP Yes,We've AudioFix MultiDisc/MultiGames Easy Soldering & Remove / 5 Wires 35€ Retail Price (Doesn't include taxes) Support DVD-R and DVD+R (Burn +R on DVDROM Booktype) Universal EUROPE/USA/JAPAN Wii Console Supported Stealth Mode NOT Upgradeable / ON SALES NOW!! Packaging When we first opened the package the Wiinja was inside, we had thought that the team were perhaps trying to bribe us into writing a great review… Don't panic… Because inside was a small presentation box that you normally see jewellery sold in. But when we saw the Wiinja label slapped atop that box, we knew what was inside (and it wasn't jewellery!). The Wiinja is packaged in a small red plastic box. Inside the box is a safe layer of fabric/cushion wrapped around the box and the Wiinja itself. The box is strong, and the added protection around the Wiinja is good piece of mind that your Wiinja will arrive undamaged. Even though it is free to rattle around the box, the box is sturdy enough to take any external damage. Inside the lid of the box was a small piece of folded paper. This showed us the schematics of the Wii DVD drive and some short notes on how to install the Wiinja. Both the label on the box and the small leaflet inside, look somewhat low quality. They look like they've been printed on a home inkjet printer and don't really give out a professional feel. Not that this is a crucial criticism, just something we did notice and thought we'd share. About the chip The Wiinja modchip is a small chip called a PIC. This tiny microcontroller can hold a small amount of code, and has been used in the modding of games consoles and other consumer electronics for years. Its popularity for this is simple; PIC microcontrollers are extremely low cost. They are cheap to buy, are widely available and are very cheap to mass-manufacture. Many people question this. If the chip is so cheap to produce then why are the modchips being sold for a higher price? Well, that's simple - You're not really paying for the chip, but for the code that is on the chip. As the PIC chip isn't custom designed for installing into the Wii. The Wiinja requires you to solder 5 wires from the chip, and to the Wii DVD drives PCB. The Wiinja PIC has 8 legs; you only need to use 5 of them. Our Wiinja arrived with its legs in the normal downward position. We recommend that you bend the legs outward so the chip could lay flat on a surface. This makes the installation later a lot easier. Just be careful when bending those legs! They are quite strong, but if you over bend them or use the wrong tool then you could snap them off, and that would make the Wiinja useless or make for a MUCH harder installation. The Wiinja has a tiny little label stuck on the top with the Wiinja logo on it. The label, again, is low quality and looks like it could have been printed off on a home printer. We were surprised to see the logo wasn't printed directly on the chip, but weren't exactly disappointed either. Installation Before we begin with the installation we need to mention a few things. In recent days, as people have been installing their Wii modchips it has been discovered that one particular model of the Wii DVD drive is currently incompatible with any of the three current modchips. The Panasonic chipset on-board the drive varies between units, and there are currently three known chipsets: (You can find out what chipset your Wii has by disassembling the Wii to its DVD drive PCB and checking the Panasonic chipset). GC2-DMS = Compatible GC2R-D2A = Compatible GC2-D2B = Not compatible According to research by some teams, the latter chipset is more likely to be found in Wii units that shipped in late January and early February. It is unknown whether all future Wii units will have this chipset or if it is just luck of the draw, but research is still ongoing and you can find out more information by reading through some of the related threads in our Wii discussion forums. To install the Wiinja modchip, you will need the following: Wiinja Soldering iron with a small tip (15w-30w recommended) Solder 5 short lengths of insulated wire (approx 10cm/4inches in length) (Wires are not included with the Wiinja. We stripped some wire out of an old USB cable) Double sided adhesive/sellotape folded in half Electrical tape Regular Nintendo tri-wing screwdriver (not definite – an unknown number of Wii units don't use tri-wing screws at all) Small/precision Philips head screwdriver Small thin blade or something to carefully lever and remove labels First things first, we need to get to the DVD drive. So we need to crack open that Wii. We made a short video which shows you how to dismantle your Wii, we recommend you watch that before commencing. Part 1 Taking the Wii apart is actually very easy to do. Just pay attention to what screws you remove and where they need to go when you put it back together. Some screws are hidden underneath small white plastic tabs and rubber feet so you need to lift these out carefully with a small thin blade to get access to the screws. There is a small CMOS battery compartment located underneath the unit. The battery holder is held in by a single screw, and you need to remove it to gain access to a necessary screw underneath it. When the majority of the screws are removed you will be able to remove the front bezel/fascia from the Wii. Carefully lift it straight up until the tabs are lifted out from within the Wii and then carefully disconnect the 2 pin wire/header that illuminates the blue light within the bezel, and place it to one side. Now, if you removed all the necessary screws you should be able to remove the left hand side of the Wii casing straight up and off. If it doesn't seem to want to move, you probably missed a screw – don't force it. When the top half of the casing is removed, you can also remove the metal body covering the Wii DVD drive. No need to undo any additional screws, the metal frame should lift straight out. Now we only need to undo 4 remaining screws, and then we'll have enough access to install the Wiinja. Once the metal frame is removed, remove the 4 pan-head screws holding in the DVD drive, and then carefully lift the DVD drive upward, but be careful – the DVD drive is attached to the motherboard by a ribbon cable and another set of wires and white header. This cable is tucked away slightly underneath an opening close the motherboard heatsink. If you pull it gently, it will give you more slack to allow you to reach in easier and disconnect the 2 cables. The brown ribbon cable connector (DVD drive end) must be unlocked by lifting it upward, the ribbon cable should then fall out. Now the DVD drive has been removed from the Wii completely, and you can begin the soldering part of the installation! If you haven't already, strip the ends of the 5 wires by about 2-3mm and tin both ends with solder. Part 2 Refer to the schematics provided with the Wiinja. It will tell you exactly what points on the drives PCB you must solder the wires to. Make NO mistake here. Be careful when soldering not to bridge any connection, and always have a de-soldering pump at hand in case of any accidents. Once the 5 wires are soldered to the PCB, you can place your Wiinja into the drive. The 2 larger soldering points are the power source for the Wiinja, the other 3 are data. The 2 larger points are easy to solder, but the 3 smaller ones are a lot more difficult. We don't recommend attempting this if you're inexperienced at soldering. We placed our Wiinja in a large empty corner of the drive. As we said earlier, we recommend that if you haven't already, that you bend the legs of the Wiinja PIC chip outwards to enable it to lie flat in the DVD drive – just be careful when bending the legs, they're strong, but over bending them or using an improper tool could cause them to snap off. Next, use double sided adhesive to stick the Wiinja down into the corner of the drive. Pay attention to what orientation you place the Wiinja. Make sure you know where pin 1 is. Pin 1 is indicated by a small dot on the top of the PIC (probably covered by the Wiinja label), or; look for the indentation/notch on the end of the PIC chip. When looking at the indentation head-on with the Wiinja the right way up, pin 1 is the leg to the right and closest to you of the indentation/notch. Now you need to tin (apply solder) to the 5 legs of the Wiinja. Refer to the schematics diagram to see what legs to tin. Now, again, referring to the schematics diagram; connect and solder the wires you applied the drives PCB to the Wiinja. Make sure you connect the right wire to the right leg! This is crucial! Once you're finished, that's it! Your Wiinja is installed. Now we recommend you carefully cover the Wiinja up, pin down the wires and cover up the solder joints you made in electrical tape to avoid any shorts, or the wires getting caught in the drive mechanism etc… Overall, installation is rather simple and straight forward. A lot more so than say, compared to Gamecube. Opening the Wii is very simple, but to a soldering newbie we wouldn't recommend they try installation without a lot of practice beforehand. If you've soldered before (modchips, PCBs etc.) then you shouldn't have a problem here. Setting Up & Using Once the Wiinja is successfully installed, your Wii should recognize and play Wii and GCN backup discs. As simple as it may seem, you need to be quite cautious about the way you burn your games, especially regarding the following factors: The file you are burning. When you somehow get ahold of a Wii dump, you first need to make sure that it is unscrambled. By default, Wii dumps/ISOs are generally "raw", meaning the data is dumped 'as is' and no decryption was applied. To make the dump readable by the Wii, you need to use an unscrambling tool (for more information, read this topic). If you are unsure about whether your iso file is already unscrambled, no worries: you can still use the unscrambler on it; if the iso was already unscrambled it will have no effect. The DVD media you're burning the game on. First, it is highly recommended that you use DVD-R media, and not DVD+R (DVD+/- RW are unfortunately not supported). For our tests, we have been using two different types of DVD-R media: the Verbatim 16x certified, and some random no-name media (after googling the media code we found out the brand was NexxTech). Well, guess what? All our games burned on Verbatim media worked flawlessly, whereas one of the games burned on the no-name media produced DREs (Disc Read Errors). Although we only encountered one DRE with the cheap media so far, it doesn't mean there won't be more later as we try games more deeply. So in general, it's best to use good media, and Verbatim is probably the brand you'll want to go for. The speed you're burning at. It is well known that the slower you burn, the more reliable! For our tests we've only burned at 4x speed - which is relatively slow, to make sure our games are burned properly. The Wiinja team has however let us know that it is possible to burn games at 16x speed, but... we don't recommend that. It goes without saying that all these factors are not dependent on the modchip itself, but on the DVD drive of the Wii! A cheap/faulty DVD-R won't work on any Wii regardless of the modchip that is installed. One last thing: it does not matter which burning software you use. Any burning software supporting .iso files will do just fine. Compatibility Tests: For review purposes, we have tested a bunch of Wii games. Let's see how the Wiinja performs in terms of compatibility: Game name Media Burn Speed Region Result Avatar: The Legend of Aang NexxTech 4x PAL Call of Duty 3 NexxTech 4x PAL/GER Call of Duty 3 Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL/ENG Cars Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Far Cry Vengeance NexxTech 4x PAL Gottlieb Pinball Classics NexxTech 4x PAL GT Pro Series NexxTech 4x PAL Ice Age 2: The Meltdown NexxTech 4x PAL Madden NFL 07 NexxTech 4x PAL Monster 4x4: World Circuit Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Need For Speed Carbon Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL/ENG Need For Speed Carbon NexxTech 4x PAL/FR Rampage: Total Destruction Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Red Steel Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Super Fruit Fall NexxTech 4x PAL Super Monkey Ball Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent NexxTech 4x PAL Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam NexxTech 4x PAL WarioWare: Smooth Moves Verbatim 16x certified 4x PAL Marvel Ultimate Alliance NexxTech 4x NTSC-U What conclusions can we draw from these results? Well... We knew it right from the start: NTSC backups won't work on a PAL Wii, no surprise there. Cheap media (NexxTech/noname) should play as fine as good quality media (Verbatim), as long as you burn at a slow speed. However, a disc read error occured during the intro of "Avatar". The Wiinja definitely offers 100% 1:1 compatibility, at least for the games from your region. Disc Read Errors Concerning disc read errors: these might happen randomly if you're using cheap/low quality media. The cheaper discs generally use a low quality dye such as CMC resulting in inferior burns AND increased difficulty for the laser reading the disc (thanks to Darkforce for the precisions): No score was given. A score reflects a product in comparison to another. We will add scores as soon as we review more products.

My son-in-law graduated from college this past weekend! Here is the Graduation card I made for him. This stamp set retires June 2nd, 2015 but you can use other stamps to copy it or the Little Letters Thinlits. The college colors are red and blue. Use the school's colors to make your card.
Stamps: Class of 2015 Wood # 137175 (retires June 2nd 2015)
Bravo Photopolymer #135380
Layered Letters Photopolymer Photopolymer #138692 (Available June 2nd, 2015)
Ink: Night of Navy
Card Stock: Whisper White
Night of Navy
Real Red
Big Shot: Starburst Framelits #132967 (retiring June 2nd, 2015)
Other: Paper Snips
SNAIL or Fast Fuse Double Sided Adhesive
1. Cut your Real Red card base at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″. Score and fold at 4-1/4″. Watch this video if you need more instructions on making your own card bases.
2. Cut your Night of Navy card front at 4″ x 5-1/4″. Attach to card base.
3. Stamp your Class of 2015 in Night of Navy ink on both Real Red and Whisper White card stock. Cut the stamped Real Red image with your Big Shot and the size of Starburst Framelit you want.
4. Cut out the "2015" and the graduation cap stamped images from the Whisper White card stock with your Paper Snips. I left a small white border around the edges. Put a half Dimensional on the back of the graduation cap. Put Dimensionals on the back of the "2015" and the Real Red Starburst die cut. Layer them together. Line up the tassel threads on both the white and red stamped images. Place the cut out 2015 on top of the Real Red stamped 2015. Put your layered Starburst on your card front.
5. I forgot to take a picture of the inside before I mailed the card. But I stamped the Congrats! from the Bravo stamp set and then my son-in-law's name under that. I needed the card in landscape format so the Congrats and his name would fit across the inside of the card. I messed up the first time, so I stamped the second time on Whisper White card stock. I also laid the stamps Photopolymer side up on the table, then inked up the stamps. I then laid the Whisper White card stock on top of the stamps and used another clear block to rub the inked stamps. Make sure you gently peel up one corner at a time while holding the rest of the card stock in place to make sure all the letters are all the way stamped on your card stock. Trim your card stock to center the stamps if needed. Attach to the inside. There was just enough room left at the bottom to sign our names.
6. I also used the Gift Card Thinlit to make an insert and included some cash so they can go out to dinner or on a date to celebrate his graduation. Watch the Gift Card Video if you want help making it. I just used SNAIL to hold the three lower flaps together and left the top flap unattached.
Happy Graduation Card Making!
