60,000 London families at risk of homelessness
Press Releases
60,000 London families at risk of homelessness
Commissioned by a homelessness charity, the research looked at court orders and evictions, and identified certain areas across the country where the risk of being made homeless is greatest. Across the country, one in every 105 households on average is at risk of repossession or eviction, although some areas are more at risk than others.
The London Borough of Newham comes out as the worst in the country, with one in 35 households having had a court order made against it this year and the seriousness of capital's housing crisis is apparent, with the London boroughs dominating the top twenty crisis hotspots.
"The fact that London has such high rents and house prices puts people at a particular disadvantage," said Keith Fernett, Director of Newham homeless charity Anchor House. "Many families are living paycheck to paycheck and things like zero-hours contracts, pay day loans and benefits cuts are resulting in a society where the poorest are excluded and more people than ever are on the brink of losing their home.
"This year at Anchor House, our occupancy rate has been around 99.2% and even though our residents are getting jobs, it is still a struggle to find a place to live. The reality of 'affordable' housing in London requires a salary of at least £30,000 just to rent a flat, and we as a society have got some serious thinking to do if we're going to solve this."

Anchor House is a nationally acclaimed homeless charity, which addresses the root causes of homelessness; substance misuse; poor mental health; unemployment; lack of skills/education and a history of offending. It is a registered charity providing accommodation for up to 220 single homeless people each year. It also provides a wide range of accredited vocational training courses in construction, electrical, plumbing and distance learning for both residents and the local community. The charity is located in Canning Town, in the London Borough of Newham, the third most deprived borough in England and Wales.

Monthly Archives: July 2008
We are heading into yet another two week shoot for UnitedHealthcare. This particular project is going to entail a bit more post-production retouching and compositing than we usually do. So although we'll only be shooting for two weeks, we'll really be busy for more like a month with all of the post-production work.
We'll share some of the new imagery as soon as we have it!

Dead Games
Pagan and Anglo-Saxon traditions aside, Halloween is basically about scaring the crap out of people and eating little candy bars until you're crippled by nausea. While standard trick-or-treating used to cover the bases, Twin Citizens are coming up with more elaborate ways to terrorize and overindulge.
The Halloween theme park Trail of Terror is located on the same Shakopee lot as the equally creepy Renaissance Festival, and apparently it's staffed by many of the same people. The parking area is starting to fill up on this Thursday night, and an appropriately spooky mist hangs in the air, heightening the excitement of the suburban families and spoiled young folk lining up to get in. A greasy hobo type, who may or may not be in costume, takes our tickets and babbles something about waiting our turns for the Haunted Hayride. "Write when you get work," he calls after us, then turns to an impatient group of teens who have no time for the etiquette lesson. "Hey, get back here, I'm not done!" he shouts, grabbing for a handful of Polarfleece.
Our first stop is the haunted maze, located inside a benign-looking pole barn. As we wait in line, a scarecrow mounted on the wall suddenly comes alive, choosing a gum-smacking preteen as his first victim. She lets out an embarrassing shriek, much to the delight of her snickering girlfriends. The older kids in line have more important concerns. "We've gotta get that alcohol in here," whines a privileged young man behind me. "Maybe we could pour it in a soda bottle," his stylish girlfriend ventures. "No, that will never work! Hey, he's good at sneaking stuff in!" he shouts, noticing a savvy classmate. Sensing restlessness, a staffer starts a video, forgetting to fast-forward past the previews and treating the fourth grader ahead of me to an eyeful of Eighties starlet Helen Slater's bod. Even when the feature, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, commences and the line begins to move, the youngster remains fixated on the screen.
A pretty young blonde in Victorian corpse attire rattles off the house rules to each group in a bored, self-conscious tone. "And don't spit, that's just, well, we can't have that here," she tells us, her eyes betraying her contempt for costumed characterhood. Inside the maze, overzealous ex-drama clubbers delight in jumping out in front of us (and the middle-aged strangers to whom we cling), taunting, shadowing, and breathing down our necks.
The maze empties into the beer garden/gift shop/dance party tent, where "Thriller" is blaring from overhead speakers, attractive women are hawking head-shop candles, a man and his young son are getting a tarot reading, and successful maze navigators are chilling out with bottles of Bass ale, asking one another, "Were you scared?" "Were you?" Their fearless offspring wolf down standard festival fare, no doubt fueling up for the freak show in the next tent.
FOR THOSE TOO jaded for trick-or-treating, there's no better way to celebrate Halloween than getting smashed and acting like a jackass. On Friday night, having paid $7 for my wristband, I enter the Xanadu of smashed jackassdom: the party tent at Gabe's by the Park. The massive structure encloses a dozen or so vendor booths, a giant stage, and about 3,000 square feet of dancing/mingling room. No one's hammered yet, but Kooky Uncle Tony's hackneyed guitar rock is influencing most to expedite the intoxication process. A handful of revelers surround a booth that features a tree stump and a hot young coed. The banner above the booth reads "Hammer-Schlagen"; the object of the game is to drive a nail into the stump in one stroke. Success gets you a lame prize. Failure gets you a sticker like the ones that decorate the coed's derrière (e.g., "I Got Nailed"; "Got Wood?").
Although nothing has been announced, I suspect a costume contest when an eight-foot dinosaur with light-up eyes walks through the door and takes a proud lap around the room. "That's lame," sniffs an uncostumed partygoer. "He can't even drink in that thing." A pair of tipsy young ladies dressed as angels sway seductively to the music as a disturbingly authentic Don King tries to look the other way. Still, the most popular costume by far is Frat Boy--at least half of the attendees sport khakis, untucked button-downs, Abercrombie caps, and plastic cups of Leinie's. Several women wear little more than six coats of Maybelline Great Lash, making Slut a close second in costume commonality.
Most of the crowd is strategically clustered about, separated by gender and costume status, hatching meet-and-greet strategies. "Woooooo!" scream two Fifties teenyboppers as they pass packs of single guys, eliciting second glances. A proud Mary Katherine Gallagher demonstrates the SNL character's signature moves for anyone who'll watch. And all the while, two waitresses in Lycra slacks enhance the party atmosphere by circulating trays of little paper cups. "Ya wanna shot?" one asks suggestively. As she well knows, the party's not really swingin' until someone pukes through his mask.
FOR ONE SATURDAY afternoon, the Minnetonka Center for the Arts has been transformed into an orange-and-black nirvana for the Sesame Street set. A nice woman dressed as a kitty-cat ushers us into the main gallery, where free treats include homemade sugar cookies and cans of name-brand pop.
In the various studios, masked Romper Room types lead hyperactive tots in creative seasonal crafts. The most popular room is musical shaker making. Instructor Janis Lane-Ewart demonstrates the multiple uses of paper towel rolls, complimenting youngsters on their work. A blue M&M and a Britney Spears are twisting wire sculptures in the studio next door, while a Tweety Bird refuses to leave her mother's arms to join the scavenger hunt, having spotted two boys identically dressed as the monster from Scream.
We can't leave without taking a peek at the 200-pound pumpkin in the painting studio, where we're invited to paint a pumpkin with artist Karla Lenzin. We decline, but Lenzin is persuasive. "Come on," she insists with genuine Halloween spirit. "You know, you're never too old."

1. The History
Not too much out there on this large mill on the banks of the River Calder near Horbury in Wakefield. The river provided the power for the mills, via their water wheels, prior to the instillation of steam engines. Records say that a mill was first built on the site around 1795 when it was known as Races Mill and was owned by John Race and Co. At the start of the first industrial revolution, spinning and cloth manufacture also boomed at Dudfleet Mill. The Mill saw the uprising by workers April 1812. Referred to as Luddites, they blamed the new factories for depriving weavers of earning a living at a time of widespread hunger and poverty. They objected to the new textile factory machinery and factory system. Hence on that April night between 300 to 600 Luddites descended on the nearby Fosters Mill, causing damage of around £700 (the equivalent of roughly £500,000 today).
Some records refer to Dudfleet Mill being built by the Shaw family of Horbury circa 1823 for the manufacture of worsted cloth. The mill consisted a large three-storey building with a boiler house and a row of workers' cottages. A report from March 1834 looking into the employment of children in factories showed that Race and Co were involved in woollen cloth and lambswool yarn manufacture. The report stated that of their workforce of 40, 14 were under the age of 14. Times were hard and the working day started at 6am and finished at 7pm during the week. Saturdays saw workers knocking off at 5pm in the summer and 4pm in the winter. Sunday was a rest day!
By 1887 the mill owners had passed to the ownership of Archer, Ritchie and Co. who were manufacturers of army & police cloths. Then at some point in the early 1900s, after the mill had stood empty for a while, it was purchased by James Benjamin Sykes who produced Melton cloth and hand-made "Peg" type rugs. When he died in 1954, the Mill was sold to Mr. H. Hartley for the manufacture of carpets. In 1964 the original large mill was demolished after being left unused for several years. Also pulled down at the same time was the boiler house chimney and the original row of workers' cottages. The weaving sheds, the boiler house and the newer cottages were left standing and Fur Fabrics bought the premises in 1969. They used the site for preparation and spin of various textiles, before closing in 2005. Since then the mill has been left empty and suffered arson attacks in July 2011 and then again in December 2017.
Little of the original building remains with the oldest sections backing onto the river. Most of the site that remains was built during the 1950s/60s, prior to scaling down of operations at the factory
2. The Explore
An easy-in one this one. Not a lot left inside and only slight hints as to what the mill was used for. Worthy of an hours wander and quite photogenic in parts, this was a nice and relaxed wander.

According to annual surveys carried out by the City Council, the number of trips being made into and out of Glasgow city centre has increased from 3,012 to 9,255 per day in the last seven years.
This indicates a flow of 1,851,000 cycle journeys undertaken yearly to and from the city centre.

Councillor Gordon Matheson, Leader of Glasgow City Council, said: "Cycling is an increasingly important aspect of the council's local transport strategy.
"Increasing the number of people walking and cycling as a form of transport has been a major aim of the council and it's very encouraging this is being acknowledged by our peers at a national level."
He claims the upward trend in journeys undertaken by cycling in the city can be attributed to a number of factors including the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, improvements to cycle paths and parking, the completion of the Bridge to Nowhere and the launch of city's cycle hire scheme.
The council recently won the Excellence in Cycling and Walking category at the National Transport Awards.
It was the only Scottish local authority to win an award at the ceremony hosted by BBC presenter Jeremy Vine.

Which way is the amber nectar flowing?
Price cuts, women drinkers and struggling top brands make for tough times. Graham Holter investigaes
Hold the front page: cider's combined off-trade sales are now bigger than those of Stella Artois. That an entire category is larger than an individual brand shouldn't really be shocking news, but the sheer scale of Stella's domination of the long drinks category in recent times makes its decline an almost endless talking point.
Stella isn't the only casualty of a stagnating lager market, or indeed the biggest. Most of its premium rivals are also having a tough time of it and Kronenbourg 1664 appears to have really lost its way, registering a sales fall of nearly 14%. What will its new owner Heineken (whose eponymous lager is notably absent from the top 10) want to do
It will be interesting to see where its priorities lie.
Let's get one thing straight
- this is a market where any sort of sales uplift is remarkable. In the 12 months to Feb 23, off-trade lager sales were absolutely static at £2.8 million. Factor in inflation and they were actually in decline. The same was true for the beer category as a whole - though ale fared slightly worse, with sales down 1%.
There were predictions that the smoking ban would result in a direct benefit for the off-trade as pub beer sales fell away, but it doesn't appear to have happened - or at least whatever gains the take-home market made
were cancelled out by a general decline in sales. On-trade lager has fallen by 4%, twice the rate of the sector's overall liquor sales.
"Ten years ago, over 80% of beer was consumed in the on-trade," points out David Wigham, customer marketing director of Coors. "The off-trade has grown to over 44% and by 2012 I estimate it will be 50-50.
"From our historically high levels of beer consumption, we have seen a gradual decline in total beer drinking in the UK from 41 million barrels in 1980
to circa 33 million barrels in 2007. This has been influenced by a number of factors including the growth of competing drinks categories such as wine.
"While the overall beer market decline - on and off-trade - has averaged around 1% in each of the last 10 years, thankfully we remain a nation of beer lovers." Or, more specifically, lager lovers.
The price differential between the two trade sectors is more immense than ever, as MPs, doctors and pub trade associations constantly remind us. "In the early 1980s, the cost of a pint of beer in the on and off-trade was about the same," says Wigham. "Today it's almost two-and-a-half times more expensive in the on-trade - a reflection on the competition between retailers, with beer often being seen as a footfall driver.
"The actual average retail price of beer in the off-trade is lower than five years ago, despite inflationary cost pressures for beer producers and rising excise duty levels."
Mark Gerken, Scottish & Newcastle's UK off-trade sales managing director, is one of many on the supply side who believes it's time for the trade to address the issue of price promotions. "A key issue in the lager category is the real need to add value - discounting by retailers with the aim of driving footfall will not secure the long-term health of the category," he says.
"Retailers and suppliers need to build on their relationships to provide consumer value without resorting to the easy option of deep discounting."
He warns that canned lager, so often piled high and sold at a price cheaper than water, may not always be the "safe bet" the industry assumes.
"Innovation and investment is also crucial, particularly for canned lager, which could soon become a casualty of discounting if this offering is not fully addressed," he says. "The growing consumer demand for more premium bottled lagers and the burgeoning 'cider over ice' trend leaves canned lager in danger of flagging.
"At the moment, there is a fruitless share-steal situation with suppliers through ongoing discounted deals."
Something for the ladies
Another recurring theme that still leaves beer marketers scratching their heads is how to attract more women to the lager sector.
Once, there was little mystery to why it was such a turn-off: advertising had a boorish, almost moronic feel about it and was seemingly designed to appeal
to the knuckle-draggers among the male of the species. Much of the marketing
relies disproportionately on stereotypical male obsessions, particularly football, as well as low-grade laddish humour. But things are
better than they were.
Stella Artois is one brand that cannot be accused of pandering to idiotic men. Stuart MacFarlane, president of Inbev UK & Ireland, believes
improvements need to be made to the way lager is merchandised, which will not only make the environment more female-friendly but also rejuvenate the category generally.
"We can increase penetration by categorising
better and getting more women into the beer aisle," he claims.
He says that product innovation is a key focus for Inbev. "This company is evolving because we are now part of the biggest FMCG company in the world and are looking to improve on this through world-class innovation." Part of his brief is to learn from other areas of the grocery market which have not proved so repellent to women, and to be more innovative.
"Historically, brand innovation has been developed through the on-trade but I believe we need to move it more towards the take-home market. In fact, I want to bring an FMCG mindset to the brewing industry," he says.
"We have the brands to drive the innovation agenda. There are lessons to be learnt from other categories, for example
tea, snacks and soft drinks. I will take these lessons on board and look at applying them to the beer category."
Wigham at Coors adds: "We have a big opportunity to recruit more ladies to the benefits of beer. Only about 12% of beer is consumed by females in the UK, compared to 25% in the US and 36% in Ireland.
"There are some myths around the relative virtues of beer which we need to address as part of welcoming more females into the beer market.
"We can attract many more female drinkers to beer by sharing the good news: for example, nothing beats a cold beer when you need refreshment. What's more, it's fat-free and made from very natural ingredients - just water, cereals, yeast and hops."
MacFarlane says there is a need to address such issues as out-of-stocks, cold rooms and the entire chilling agenda.
He admits there are some areas where Inbev UK can raise its game - not just on the innovation front, but also with issues surrounding packaging, product dispense and the advertising for key brands such as Stella Artois.
"We can deliver good innovation from this business, but we need the right support
from the industry," he adds.
In truth, most of what the brewers are preaching is nothing we haven't heard before in some shape or form. There cannot be many people in the drinks industry who have not listened to repeated pleas for innovation, better marketing, bigger margins and more premiumisation.
The difference now is that the lager market has reached a
tipping point. The weakening economy isn't helping matters. Unless suppliers and retailers can start turning some of their wise words into positive action, this is a sector whose best days may well turn out to be behind it.
The buyers' views
Craig, Sainsbury's
How many lagers are in your range? Including some of the regional lines, about 180. It's slightly lower than it was in previous years. We've taken out a little bit of duplication.
Have you changed the way lager is merchandised? Not really. But we will be making some changes later in the year. It's about ensuring we've got the best space allocated to brands and packaging formats based on sales performance over the last year or so. There's been a switch to bigger packs and good growth from some brands that were relatively small before.
What are your best sellers? Stella is still far and away the number one SKU, although it has declined over the past year. We are selling an ever-increasing quantity of brands like Carlsberg, Carling and Foster's - and Grolsch has seen double-digit growth.
How much of your lager is sold on discount? It obviously varies depending on the time of year, but if you take an average you could say roughly half our lager is sold on promotion.
What trends are you seeing in lager? We're seeing strong growth from what I would call the genuinely imported beers, and beers with a bit of a story behind them. We're seeing double-digit growth in single-bottle world beers and "table" beers. Our customers are happy to mix and match and we're seeing an increased weight of purchase.
What are you looking for from suppliers? If they're launching new products it's about having a stage one, stage two and stage three launch programme . We want to see a good strong plan for the first 18 months or so. We were the first multiple to take the Heineken keg . It was a great piece of NPD and we're delighted with how that's performed. That's a key example of how suppliers can work with us.
Helen Moores, Tesco
How many lagers are in your range? We currently have around 250 SKUs from around 80 brands.
Have you changed the way lager is merchandised? The beer offering from Tesco has evolved significantly in the past year. We have a strategy to develop four key areas of our customer offering: world
cider and
no -alcohol
beer. Each of these areas had additional range and space allocated to it for the summer of 2006; this was boosted again in the August 2007 category review.
world and
beer ranges now include
beers from
more than 30 countries. The emergence of
eastern European lagers has lead to the introduction of not only Polish beers, but beers from Lithuania (Švyturys) and Estonia (Viru). We have also introduced Tusker from Kenya and Peroni Gran Riserva from Italy.
What are your best sellers? Our mainstream brands - Stella Artois, Carlsberg, Carling, Foster's - continue to sell well. They are well-known brands that customers can trust and are often supported by promotions. In addition, we have seen our own brand, Boheme 1795, show impressive sales from a standing start last July.
What trends are you seeing in lager? Increasingly, our customers are trading up
to more premium brands and are looking to try new products. In addition to the continued popularity of leading brands, our customers want a range of lagers from all over the world and in all styles on shelf to excite and challenge them, and we are ensuring that these products are in place.
What are you looking for from lager suppliers? We are always looking to drive innovation across the beer category in all aspects, so we ask our suppliers to show innovation through products, packaging
and marketing . Recent successful examples include the Foster's scuba and Kronenbourg dynamo.
The independent's
Richard Genders, Bottle Stop, Cheadle, Cheshire
Richard Genders
reports that lager sales are "very buoyant". His philosophy has always been to avoid mass-marketed brands and opt for imported rarities and even draught lager - Veltins, the German pilsner, is available on tap.
"We've been selling bona fide imported Red Stripe since last November and doing probably eight to 10 cases a week," he adds. "It's far nicer than what's brewed under licence. Another big seller is imported Bitburger.
"My imported Stella sales are very buoyant - people love it and there is a difference. I offer a choice: eight for £7.50 on UK stock and imported at £1.10 a can, and that's the one that goes. In fact when the eight for £7.50 has finished I will just do the imported one."
Genders' premium strategy has seen him buck the trend in lager sales - and has also seen his shop thrive while nearby Oddbins, Thresher and Victoria Wine stores have closed. How does he think rivals make profits with mainstream lager sold on discount? "It beggars belief," he says.
What's new at the big brewers?
Stuart MacFarlane Inbev
Stella Artois is the third-largest grocery brand in the UK and understandably dominates Inbev's thoughts.
The brand is currently being promoted in a 3,200-site poster campaign in what Inbev describes as "the single biggest monthly spend by any lager or cider brand in almost 18 months and the biggest investment in one burst of beer advertising since 2004 - highlighting Inbev UK's commitment to Stella Artois".
Stuart MacFarlane, president of Inbev UK & Ireland, says the company is looking at a "take-home rejuvenation programme"
that will focus on tackling key industry challenges - value, retail execution and product innovation.
He says: "There is the opportunity to look at how to drive value by asking what consumers really want from the beer category and what type of brands they will pay more for."
MacFarlane adds that the industry should work together to improve store standards and to tackle retail challenges to improve the "shopping ambience".
Mark Gerken S&N
Despite the distraction of a lengthy
and sometimes acrimonious takeover, which has resulted in its UK operation coming under the ultimate control of Heineken, S&N has been working hard on a strategy it believes has the potential to add £300 million to the long alcoholic drinks market in the off-trade.
The Category Vision project is designed to better understand modern consumers and offer them the right products for every drinking occasion. S&N believes this is a more sensible way of segmenting beer aisles than by alcoholic content.
"The beer with food opportunity is a growing trend and research suggests that by 2010, 70% of all alcohol consumption occasions will include food," says Mark Gerken.
"S&N UK has recognised this and invested heavily in marketing and activity linking key brands such as Kronenbourg 1664 and Foster's with food, and this has helped to develop clear identities for each brand."
David Wigham Coors
Coors has "an ambitious stream of development planned for the months ahead and is keen to work with customers to ensure we help them unlock further potential from the beer category", according to David Wigham.
"At Coors we have a passion for beer and want to see
it playing an increasingly relevant role in the lives of adults across the UK," he adds. "However, we are committed to promoting responsible beer consumption. Accordingly we are pleased to see and support the broadening occasionality of beer.
"The dining table was once the preserve of wines, but now there are many fine beers which can beautifully complement an array of fine food. For example, Kasteel Cru is a sophisticated bière blonde we produce in Alsace using Champagne yeast and will grace any dinner table. On other occasions we are seeing C2 broaden the opportunity for beer ranging from barbecues to a pint after sport."
Major launches
Eiken Artois
The replacement for Artois Bock, this oak-aged addition to the Artois family is designed to appeal to beer aficionados. Inbev is promising major support for the brand this summer.
"Eiken Artois is brewed in Belgium to an original Continental recipe using carefully selected aroma hops, and harnesses an oak-aged maturation technique to produce a distinctively different style of lager," the company states. But will consumers be any more enthusiastic than they were about Bock - and is the association with the mass-market Stella necessarily right for a specialist product?
Heineken DraughtKeg
After doing well in trials in Sainsbury's, Thresher and Makro, Heineken gave its 5-litre keg a wider roll-out this spring. The £13.99 product ( that works out 63% more expensive than buying most canned lager) is the latest attempt by a major brewer to produce a credible large beer dispenser for the take-home market. Perhaps the trend towards bigger American-style fridges gives DraughtKeg a fighting chance of success, though the 10-hour chilling time makes this very much a planned, rather than an impulse, purchase.
Smoother-serve Foster's and Kronenbourg
Don't say "widget". Say "scuba" (for Foster's) and, ahem, "dynamo sytème" for Kronenbourg, but essentially we're still talking about a little gizmo that makes canned beer go all frothy.
The £12 million launch,
that involves TV advertising and sampling, boldly goes where no lager has gone before
- except of course Guinness Enigma and Carling Premier. The new products will sit alongside their regular counterparts and may even replace them if demand is strong.
Both brands are due some fresh impetus. Will the widget be sufficient to get sales bubbling again?

The Cybersecurity Threats That Keep Banks Alert
In the current climate of major data breaches amidst an ever-shifting cyber threat landscape, the people in charge of vast volumes of valuable financial data are under increasing pressure to keep customer data safe from hackers and fraudsters.
Speaking at the SWIFT Business Forum in London at the end of April, a range of senior security professionals at financial services firms and banks told the audience what keeps them up at night when it comes to cyber security and fraud. Here's what they said:
1. A constantly changing threat landscape
JF Legault, global head of cybersecurity operations at JP Morgan, highlighted the way that the threat landscape has changed over the past few years.
He explained: "In late 2014 we saw the advent of malware targeting wholesale banking platforms. Criminals stopped going after simple, low-value monetary amounts and shifted to high-value payment platforms.
The reason they did that was a lot more yield on the crime they committed. We also saw a shift toward business email compromise. We also saw a number of breaches affecting the financial sector that led to fraudulent messages."
His diplomatic answer to what keeps him up at night was simply: "What the business says keeps it up at night. I am there to help the business innovate and look at the different risks they face."
2. False positives
In the fraud space, the biggest issue for banks is "false positives" in its anti-money laundering (AML) monitoring systems. This means issues being flagged that aren't actually fraudulent activities, taking up valuable analyst time.
Anthony Fenwick, global head of treasury and trade solutions and AML compliance at Citi Group said simply: "Our biggest problem in this industry is false positives."
When asked if artificial intelligence technology could help solve this issue, Fenwick said: "The story is why are we producing so many false positives, not 'let's deploy robots to get rid of the false positives'.
"One of the drivers I am trying to change is that the use of electronics and AI have to go hand-in-hand with the best humans. The idea that we remove all human activity from this process misses the point of what we are trying to do, which is marry these two capabilities to tackle the beast of bad data."
3. The big breach
Royce Curtin, managing director of global intelligence at Barclays, said: "It's the big breach that keeps us awake at night. If and when and that ultimate failure to provide the service customers expect and entrust us to keep safe. So we work very hard and take it very seriously the responsibility of building systems and trust for services that people feel comfortable using."
Last year saw the biggest data breach at a bank in UK history. Tesco Bank was hit by an attack which saw 20,000 compromised users lose money from their accounts. The banking wing of the supermarket giant is in the process of paying back ÂL2.5 million to customers who had their accounts compromised.
4. Missing a breach
Brendan Goode, regional CISO for UK and Ireland at Deutsche Bank said he most fears the feeling of "did we miss something? Where you look back at the logs and it is right there."
This failure of the system to alert to a potential breach is a major part of a modern cyber security strategy, and would keep any CISO worth their salt up at night.
5. Customers
As the February 2016 hack of the Bangladesh Central Bank showed, customer accounts can be the most vulnerable point of entry to a bank's systems. The hackers used stolen privileged credentials to steal $81 million before they were caught.
Matt Middleton-Leal, regional vice-president UK, Ireland and Northern Europe at security software vendor CyberArk, said: "Banks fear attacks which hide behind insider privileges because they allow cybercriminals to appear as legitimate users, giving them unprecedented freedom to work their way up to their most valuable financial assets."
Gottfried Leibbrandt, CEO at the financial messaging vendor SWIFT admitted that the bank's customers "will always be the weakest link, but at the same time the response should not be 'let's fix the weakest link' but you have to take an end-to-end view."
"Yes the weak link will always be the customer at the end of the day," he said, "but in retail banking the banks have been able to put in controls after it gets into the bank to respond to suspect logins, fraudulent transactions and do real risk scoring."
6. Ruthless adversaries
Craig Rice, director of security at Payments UK and the CSO at BACS said that the threat shouldn't be considered a technology problem but more like organised crime.
"They are ruthless shadow operations that work outside of a regulatory regime," he said. "They are quicker than you are, they are more ruthless than you are and they are more willing to be pragmatic than you are. That's a really tough competitor you are dealing with, so stop thinking about this as a technology problem."
So, how do the banks confront these issues?
How do the banks deal with this ever-changing threat landscape?
Communication and intelligence
The main theme of the day regarding cyber security and fraud was a shift from a walled-garden approach to a holistic one, and this comes down to better communication and intelligence sharing.
JF Legault at JP Morgan laid out his approach to contending with the new threat landscape: "I am responsible for collecting threat and fraud intelligence to ensure that we know where adversaries are going and what they are going after."
He said this comes down to not just technology, but people and process: "So how do we go from a cyber security analyst that is very much focused on technology and cyber controls, to an analyst that understands the business and can have a conversation with someone in the payments space?"
This approach can also be seen in the language of modern cyber security vendors. Splunk's-cyber security tools are all marketed with a focus on intelligence and response, and UK cyber startup Darktrace is making good progress in the enterprise market because it is rooted in this approach.
From perimeter security to multiple layers
Gottfried Leibbrandt from SWIFT highlighted the need for a change in thinking from its clients, "from perimeter security where no one gets inside our walls, to in-depth defence."
"Realising that sooner or later someone will get in and catching them when they get in, seeing what they do and being able to respond by having multiple layers of defence," he said.
Cross-industry collaboration
Leibbrandt from SWIFT pointed out that the days of banks keeping their cyber strategy a closely guarded secret are over if there is to be any progress in combating today's cyber threats.
He said: "A lot of the threats we see today exploit the ecosystem, they don't look for an individual link in the chain, they look for weak points in the end-to-end chain, so the response means we have to work together as an ecosystem."
Many of the conference attendees mentioned the Centres a positive step for the private sector towards snuffing out cyber threats.
Goode from Deutsche Bank put it best when he said: "As soon as you make it more difficult, as soon as you start sharing and taking away the different avenues to target any bank and increase awareness, you make it a less enticing environment for adversaries to engage in."
Scenario testing
Despite many admitting it is a pain, scenario testing and exercises are one of the best ways for organisations to protect themselves from cyber threats, especially when they are conducted across the industry. The Bank of England and Financial Conduct Authority have typically taken a pretty progressive and collaborative approach to resiliency benchmarking in the UK.
Legault from JP Morgan said: "Doing exercises, so getting everyone around the table and you simulate scenarios so you understand where your gaps are and what you do well, you understand what you need to build into your cyber process and your resiliency process. It is essential to do that with everyone within your organisation: legal, cyber, compliance, the business, the operations folks, the technology folks and even your peers."
Actionable insights
Banks are increasingly looking to get more actionable insights to not just their security analysts but people within the business units themselves. This means intelligence that can be quickly turned into a response by the most relevant people, especially important in a landscape where breaches can happen in a heartbeat.
Brendan Goode from Deutsche Bank said: "In payments it is important to create intelligence inside the bank and publish it out and disseminate that fast and someone needs to receive it and do something with it, so actionable intelligence. That comes down to speaking a common language. So being able to say: here is a set of accounts and a volume of transactions that you should be mindful of, so that they can set alerts."

Doubtful this is attributed correctly, but if it is...
Yeah, you're electing a Theologian in Chief if you're rambling on about:
Merry Christmas Bullshit
Religious Liberty Discrimination
Marginalized Christianity Victimhood
Christian Faith in America
And you're a pious hypocrite if you ignore Trump's:
Predatory behavior
Discrimination against minorities
Encouragement of Anti-Semitism
Failure to pay taxes for 20 years
Xenophobic stance
Scamming donors to his Foundation
Scamming students at his "University"
and much more...

I would vote for Donald Trump because he has convinced me he will fight for the issues that matter most to conservatives.
Why would he do that? Why, as a professed Christian, wouldn't he be more interested in voting for someone who was willing to fight for the issues that matter most to Christ, such as caring for the sick and the poor?

This election has certainly demonstrated beyond any doubt whatsoever the abject amoral, immoral, ludicrous, ridiculous & outrageous hypocrisy of so-called "Christians," especially putative "Evangelicals" who wish to inflict "Christian" Sharia on all the rest of us.
They are STILL ranting and shrieking about Bill Clinton's blow job, but NOW "god" has sent them Donald Trump, who will do all their moral, high holy bullshit 'n stuff.
What a frickin load of steaming, unfiltered bullshit.
But we all knew that all along. Just illustrates their amoral, greedy, grifting, bullshit hypocrisy all along.
When I hear feckless loser Donald Trump "Christiany" fans whining endlessly about how Trump will "protect their religious liberty" I just wanna barf. WHAT "religious liberty" do they need "protecting"??
Ship of fools.
If this wasn't written by Dr. Jack Graham, it could easily have been written by Franklin Graham, Jerry Falwall, Pat Buchanan and a whole host of other greedy, grifting, lying bullshit artists in the so-called "Christian" churches. Feck 'em all. Pharisees.

"I could easily vote for Mr. Trump this November without endorsing him, his behavior,his language or his "temperament"."
But those things are qualities you want in a good president. Trump has none of these. In fact, you'd be helping to elect one of the most un-Christ-like candidates in history.
If you're that angry about hearing "happy holidays", i really want to ask, why? This is the most vapid cause to fight for.
Single issue voters like these are the worst kind of voters, and usually the worst kind of people. There is more than just abortion, Christmas and judges. Besides, Trump didn't pick judges, a think tank did. A think tank that will be the true leader of the country. Because Trump can't lead a toothpick through a hula hoop.

This is Kitty's comment in full from the previous post below. I have added some notes in response in bold. Anyone else got anything to say on it?
'Theory does turn me on. And it turns on a lot of my friends.
QRG, I've seen that you'e had this argument with other people doing similar projects for at least a year now. As those projects have also moved on and become more successful, my guess is that there's a market for it. So regardless of whether or not the theory fits that, people *are* buying it more and more, which would suggest there is a niche there that people don't feel is being met elsewhere. How do you account for that?
First I'd like to see the evidence of the 'success' of these projects as people measure success in different ways. If you mean bottom line profits then I'd like to see people's annual reports. Or at least numbers of copies of magazines/films sold, by gender of the consumer. Also I would say that just because women buy more porn, that you and people you know market 'to women' does not mean there is a 'female gaze'. Men buy porn and I do not think there is a 'male gaze'. So the theory is not relational to porn consumption but to how we interpret how people look at each other (and themselves).
The world I live in, especially now, in Oakland, California, is definitely dominated by half-naked women. It's on our TV screens (Jersey Shore, Real Housewives, Kardashians, America's Next Top Model, Project Runway, Sopranos reruns, Mad Men- I think True Blood is really the one equal opportunity objectifier). It's in our magazines and newspapers- looking in the back pages there's maybe 1 ad with a male for every 20 with females. It's on book covers at the publisher I work for. It's in the popup ads my computer blocks. I'd be happy to do a photojournal for a week to show what I mean, if you need that. There's the occasional sexualized Black male body, say, for an album release, where they look tough and angry- female album covers show them being available and seductive. Sure, there's Bieber, and for every Bieber there's a Miley, Jasmine, Taylor, Brittney, Christina, Jessica, etc.
Yes please do a photo journal Kitty. All evidence is good in my book.
I disagree about Jersey Shore and Mad Men which I think are all about Mikey Sorrentino and John Hamm. I don't even watch them and I know all about those to men and what they look like. They are the 'stars' of those shows. Mikey S has launched a whole brand of his male objectification based on his GTL mantra. It is all in Metrosexy! If you look at e.g. sports pages and sports advertisements you will see men's bodies objectified more than women's. In The Times newspaper I counted about 14 images of men to 6 of women in objectified situations recently. It depends how you categorise 'objectification'. Look at the pic on this post – yes it is on a gay magazine, but the boyband, Blue, are not gay. They are happily showing their bodies for a mainly male audience. I don't see how you can ignore that!
I watch a lot of porn. A lot. I do a lot of reviews. I do notice that almost all of the time, the camera is on the woman's body, leaving a disembodied dick plowing into her. Male attractiveness in "heterosexual" porn isn't seen as that important (starting to among some producers, mostly female ones, like Anna Span) but female attractiveness is compulsory. If, as a woman, you are not stereotypically attractive (slender, white, blonde, mildly or not tattooed, femme), you are far more likely to be humiliated, insulted, and treated roughly. Why is that, do you think?
If you see disembodied dicks, doesn't that suggest the man is being more objectified than the woman? Reduced to a dick? And who watches the most straight porn? Men. So they are watching those dicks intently. This suggests to me their gaze is pretty queer.
Another interesting area is fancy dress, where women get multiple versions of "slutty fill in the blank", and men get costumes that are scary or silly. If they wear something sexualized, fancy dress or underwear-wise, it will either be from a gay male shop or it'll be a humorous novelty item. Men being sexy or seen naked (particularly if they're heterosexual-identified) is often seen in media as hilarious. It's a punch line.
men being sexy or naked is hilarious?
I'm more interested in gathering data and asking questions than I am in declaring "this is what a female gaze is". I'm more into "this is what a female gaze can be". I'm interested to read more about the male gaze, too, to compare- if you are male-identified, is your gaze male no matter what?
I'm guessing you equally argue that the male gaze doesn't exist, right? Maybe I'm wrong but I haven't seen you mention the male gaze at all really, except in passing. Almost all this debate and discussion seems to center around the female gaze. I'm all for a queer gaze, but no, I disagree that *all* people have it. Perhaps there's ways in which a homoerotic gaze is more common, but it's certainly still stigmatized.
Yes I don't believe there is a male gaze. But your project is about the 'female gaze' so that is what I was arguing with. I do not know any projects focussing on the 'male gaze'. Obviously you think all porn is focussed on the 'male gaze'. But if it is I'd say that gaze likes to gaze at cock as much as if not more than anything else.
I do believe that people who identify as male tend to (not all, but many if not most) look at different things for pleasure (and with different intentions) than people who identify as female. I went to the presentation of http://pornresearch.org/ first findings and it did support my understanding that, at least culturally, there tends to be a different response and intention around the consumption of pornography between those two genders. I don't believe in a gender binary, I believe in a spectrum (maybe even more complicated than that, but spectrum works for now) or a bell curve. I've said that a lot, but you do tend to ignore it'
You say you don't believe in a gender binary, but you think people who identify as male like looking at different things to people who identify as female? That is a binary. You said 'two genders'. Two = bi= binary.

Claims that the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 were orchestrated by US intelligence agencies are "complete nonsense," Prime Minister Vladimir Putin told attendees of a youth forum.
"This is complete nonsense, it is impossible," Putin said on Monday, responding to a question posed by an attendee of the Seliger 2011 youth forum.
"To imagine that US intelligence services did it deliberately, with their own hands, is complete nonsense," the prime minister said. "Only people who do not understand the workings of security agencies can say that. It would be impossible to conceal it."
Putin added that he could not imagine how "any of the current or former US leaders could have such an idea."

NEW DELHI: India ranked 94 among 107 countries in the Global Hunger Index (GHI) 2020 and continues to be in the "serious" hunger category, though it has made some progress, particularly since the enactment of National Food Security Act.
Last year, India's rank was 102 out of 117 countries.
The neighbouring countries of Bangladesh, Myanmar and Pakistan too were in the "serious" category but ranked higher than India in this year's index as has been the trend for several years. While Bangladesh ranked 75, Myanmar and Pakistan were in the 78th and 88th position respectively. According to the report, Nepal and Sri Lanka were in 73rd and 64th position and were in the "moderate" hunger category, the report said.
The data shows that India's score has decreased consistently, a positive sign in this ranking, from 32.2 in 2010 to 31.1 in 2018 and last year the score was 30.3. In the 2020 report, India's score stood at 27.2. Going by this pace of progress, it is likely to take some more years for India to be in the "moderate" category. Countries that have scores between 10 and 19.9 are categorised as moderate ones.
The GHI is calculated by using a three-step process and the indicators used are percentage of undernourished population, percentage of children under five years suffering from wasting and stunting, and child mortality.
The report said 14% of India's population was undernourished and the country recorded a 37.4% stunting rate among children under five and a wasting rate of 17.3% . The under-five mortality rate stood at 3.7%. The data from 1991 through 2014 for Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan also showed that stunting was concentrated among children from households facing multiple forms of deprivation, including poor dietary diversity, low levels of maternal education and household poverty.
During this period, India saw a decline in under-five mortality, driven largely by a decrease in deaths from birth asphyxia or trauma, neonatal infections, pneumonia and diarrhoea.
The report said, "While the 2020 GHI does not yet reflect the impacts of Covid-19, it shows that the situation is already worrying in many contexts and is likely to worsen in the years to come."

The calendar with Winter Park cover, contains thirteen (13) brilliantly colored images of these Avy Dogs printed on heavy card stock. Since they make wonderful gifts, we have the ability to ship to friends and family. Just use different shipping addresses.
Scott has traveled to various ski patrol huts to photograph some of United States finest trained Avalanche Rescue Dogs. The dog kisses are an added bonus of the job. These dogs, also known as "Avy Dogs", are crucial members of the Ski Patrol teams. They are playful, intelligent, strong, and can search 2.5 acres in 30 minutes (while 20 humans using avalanche probes take around 4 hours). In an effort to raise awareness of their life-saving work, Scott has devoted his time and energy in capturing these heart-melting pups in action. Printed in U.S.A $19.99
In line with our mission to help the teams, for each calendar sold, we will donate twenty five percent (25%) of the retail price to the Avy dog team that directed you to our site. That funding will be used for further training and support for the pups. 01/22/2020

This research draws upon a growing interest within media sociology in the ways in which news is shaped by information flows between sources; it focuses on how the media, and newspapers in particular, report on the business aspects of the UK football industry. Media interest in the workings of the City and issues of corporate governance extend beyond the conventional business pages to encompass the sports pages, commentary and even editorializing. The case study in this article centres on the Scottish club, Celtic, and serves to illustrate how public interest in sport can help illuminate aspects of how financial news is produced and reported in the print media. The article argues that much of the growing and complex business side of the game goes largely unreported and that there is evidence of an over-reliance on celebrity sources by journalists and a lack of knowledge or experience among sports reporters in reporting business stories.

Cetera Financial Group Launches 401(k) Practice Development Program in Demonstration of Long-Term Commitment to Supporting Retirement Plan-Focused Advisors
Comprehensive Program Developed with Nationwide Financial and KnowHow 401(k) Provides Robust Training and Support, Enables Advisors to Deliver Holistic Education and Advice Experience to Plan Sponsors and Participants
Los Angeles, CA – Cetera Financial Group® ("Cetera")*, a leading network of independent firms supporting the delivery of professional financial advice, today announced the launch of its 401(k) Practice Development Program for advisors currently serving retirement plans and those seeking to expand into this market. The program, which features a robust curriculum of live, web-based training sessions supplemented by industry-leading resources and tools, has been developed with Nationwide Financial and leading retirement plan advisory consultancy KnowHow 401(k) to accelerate the growth of Cetera advisors' 401(k) businesses. The program demonstrates Cetera's long-term commitment to supporting retirement plan-focused advisors by expanding the firm's existing offerings in this area, and will help to extend Cetera's focus on holistic advice to more retirement plans and participants.
Tim Stinson, Head of Wealth Management for Cetera Financial Group, said, "Cetera's vision for empowering advisors to provide objective holistic guidance echoes in everything we do. This extends far beyond simply providing advice about investments to providing support for sponsors of and participants in company retirement plans – which, for many Americans, represent their most significant savings vehicle. With plan sponsors increasingly searching for solutions that can help them meet their fiduciary responsibilities and maximize participant engagement, our new 401(k) Practice Development Program provides both experienced advisors and those new to this market with the knowledge and tools they need to address these opportunities confidently and expand their retirement plan businesses."
The program, which is offered at no additional cost to Cetera advisors and is part of Cetera's Retirement Plan Solutions offering, consists of six live, web-based training sessions conducted over a three-month time frame by KnowHow 401(k) founder and Managing Director Chris Barlow, a widely recognized expert in helping advisors build and strengthen their retirement plan advisory businesses. Each session will cover crucial topics such as business planning; marketing; meeting with plan sponsors, and more. Enrolled advisors will also have access to KnowHow 401(k)'s fully integrated resource center, and will receive support during and after the program from Cetera's Retirement Plan Solutions consulting team, who will be available to help them implement the strategies and tactics they learn.
Jon Anderson, Head of Retirement Services at Cetera Financial Group, said, "We are very pleased to launch our innovative and comprehensive new 401(k) Practice Development Program. This program provides another powerful demonstration of Cetera's long-term commitment to supporting our retirement plan-focused advisors, as well as those seeking to develop a presence in this market. The response so far has been tremendous, with approximately 250 advisors attending each of our first couple of live training sessions and providing overwhelmingly positive feedback. We are very excited to work alongside Nationwide Financial and KnowHow 401(k) to bring this vital new offering to our advisors."
The 401(k) Practice Development Program complements and further strengthens Cetera's significant investments in its growing Retirement Solutions team, which currently consists of nearly 45 dedicated professionals with deep backgrounds in the retirement plan space, and includes practice and sales consultants. Cetera is also the only network of firms supporting independent financial advisors with its own in-house third-party administrator (TPA) offering.
Cetera's long-term commitment to supporting retirement plan-focused advisors is based on its conviction that advisors can build relationships with retirement plan participants throughout their lives, from their first contribution to a 401(k) to the latter stages of their careers and into retirement. Cetera is focused on giving its advisors the tools, training and support they need to provide more American workers with access to high-quality retirement plans.
Chris Barlow, founder and Managing Director of KnowHow 401(k), said, "I am thrilled to work with Cetera Financial Group and Nationwide Financial to make the 401(k) Practice Development Program available to Cetera advisors across the country. This program is designed to help advisors address plan sponsors' and participants' needs in a scalable way by helping them build highly specialized skills and providing answers to complex questions such as how to develop a repeatable process for conducting annual meetings, how to run an effective discovery process, how to identify the key factors in providing long-term plan support and more."

It is very encouraging to see that despite Congressional obstruction, President Donald Trump has been able to use existing law to take decisive action to deal with the crisis of invasion by illegal aliens on our southern border.
First, Trump used the power granted to him by the National Emergencies Act and related legislation to reallocate funding for the construction of a much-needed border wall.
Now the president has used the discretion provided by the tariff laws to win important concessions from Mexico.
According to a report from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, this new cooperation by Mexico has already had a noticeable effect in slowing the flood of invading aliens.
Perhaps Congress will now repent of its obstruction and join President Trump in strengthening border security, reforming the asylum laws, and expediting the deportation of these lawbreakers.

Pompeo breaks silence on alleged threats to envoy in Ukraine
WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday broke nearly 72 hours of silence over alleged surveillance and threats to the former US ambassador to Ukraine, saying he believed the allegations would prove to be wrong but that he had an obligation to evaluate and investigate the matter.
In interviews with conservative radio hosts, Pompeo said he had no knowledge of the allegations until earlier this week when congressional Democrats released documents from an associate of President Donald Trump's personal attorney suggesting that Marie Yovanovitch was being watched.
He also said he did not know and had never met Lev Parnas, the associate of Rudy Giuliani who made the claims.
Pompeo, who was travelling in California when the documents were released, had been harshly criticised by lawmakers and current and former diplomats for not addressing the matter.
The documents provided by Parnas suggested there may have been a threat to Yovanovitch shortly before she was abruptly recalled last spring.
"We will do everything we need to do to evaluate whether there was something that took place there," he said in a radio interview with Tony Katz, an Indianapolis-based broadcaster.
"I suspect that much of what's been reported will ultimately prove wrong, but our obligation, my obligation as secretary of state, is to make sure that we evaluate, investigate. Any time there is someone who posits that there may have been a risk to one of our officers, we'll obviously do that."
"It is always the case at the Department of State that we do everything we can to ensure that our officers, not only our ambassadors but our entire team, has the security level that's appropriate," Pompeo said.
