Embattled Morrisons bets on Ant and Dec partnership
By Matthew Chapman, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Friday, 04 January 2013 09:57AM
Morrisons is making a multimillion-pound investment in building a relationship with 'Britain's Got Talent' hosts Ant and Dec, putting them in its TV advertising and sponsoring their programming on ITV.
The deal, negotiated by Morrisons' media agency MEC, will involve the supermarket sponsoring 'Britain's Got Talent' and 'Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway'.
Morrisons will launch the TV campaign starring the presenters in February and will continue actvity throughout the year. Creative will focus on the retailer's specalist in-store butchers and bakers, which it is pushing as its point of difference to rivals.
The multimillion-pound activation of the Ant and Dec partnership will also include experiential activity, social media activity, mobile apps, in-store bespoke products and digital activity, including online and video content.
The announcement of the high-profile partnership comes as the supermarket prepares to reveal the results of a tough Christmas. Morrisons' house broker Jeffries is forecasting the supermarket's boss Dalton Philips will reveal a like-for-like sales drop during next week's Christmas trading update.
The supermarket parted company with chief marketer Richard Hodgson, who held the position of commercial director, in November, after concerns were raised by Dalton Philips, chief executive, about its fresh food proposition being insufficiently communicated.
Rebecca Singleton, marketing director at Morrisons, said: "Associating with 'Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway' and 'Britain's Got Talent', will allow us to demonstrate our points of difference in a way that has mass appeal and allows us to own the Saturday night food occasion.
Simon Daglish, commercial director at ITV, said: "This is a great example of what ITV can do for our customers and both our commercial team, and ITV's brand extensions team, can't wait to bring the shows and talent to life for Morrisons customers in-store and online."Follow @mattchapmanuk

U.S. stocks mixed as earnings reports roll in
First Published Jul 23 2014 08:29AM • Last Updated Jul 23 2014 05:59 pm
New York • U.S. stock indexes edged mostly higher as traders looked over a mixed batch of corporate earnings.
The meager gains were enough to mark another high close for the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
The S&P 500 edged up three points, or 0.2 percent, to 1,987. That was two points higher than its last record close reached on July 3.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 26 points, or 0.2 percent, to 17,086. The Nasdaq composite rose 17 points, or 0.4 percent, to 4,473.
Boeing fell 2 percent, the most in the Dow, after reporting disappointing revenue. Apple rose 3 percent after reporting big gains in iPhone sales.
Bond prices were little changed. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note held steady at 2.47 percent.

About Me
Hey there,
I'm Janet. I was born and raised in Minnesota. In 2002 I met my dear hubby and in 2009, after a long wait we had our first baby girl, Annelyse. Then in February of 2012 we were surprised with the early birth of our youngest daughter, Sophia who was born three months premature. When I'm not taking care of my crazy, sweet, spunky, girls, I run my photography and design businesses. I must have ran across pixel scrapper early on when it was first started. I downloaded a few things but then got busy taking care of my first baby girl. Now I'm coming back and am very thankful for the resources that you provide. It's tough to find quality, free of charge, digital papers, templates, and assets that can be used for commercial purposes.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
After a couple recent relationships and learning a lot about myself, a few things I've come to realize: I work best with high energy people who value being active and playing sports. I also read a lot so I... work best with other people who enjoy reading :)
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I sincerely love my job - it's challenging and exciting and rewarding and I love the people I work with. I do wish I had more time for sleep but oh well...
I've taken a couple left turns, from PhD in organic chemistry to consulting to finance to where I am now. It's good to keep people guessing :)
I've taken a couple left turns, from PhD in organic chemistry to consulting to finance to where I am now. It's good to keep people guessing :)
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Standardized tests and overthinking pretty much everything.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
The tattoos.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
Too many to count, let's go with one of each:
Slaughterhouse Five
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Don Giovanni
Lauryn Hill
Slaughterhouse Five
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Don Giovanni
Lauryn Hill
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
My bike, my cat, my passport my friends and my family. Pre-check for air travel also saves my life all the time.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
Kickboxing or Crossfit this weekend?
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
At Crossfit, a dive bar or.......working.
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I've never seen Star Wars. My makeup collection makes me look shallow. Maybe I am a little shallow...
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
You're high energy and like music, cross fit and/or yoga. And you can tell when someone's being cheeky.

Survivors on the Yoga Mat: Recovering Ourselves, Our Communities, and Our Culture
As an academic interested in feminist fitness and a yoga teacher, I anticipated the publication of Becky Thompson's book for almost a year after meeting her at a conference. Survivors on the Yoga Mat: Stories for Those Healing from Trauma has become an indispensable asset for my work in fitness and academia. Both of us draw from our personal and professional lives, weave the words and experiences of others into our texts, and believe in the power of yoga (and, for me, fitness more generally) as a means toward recovery and transformation. For anyone interested in the healing power of yoga–personally or professionally–this book is a moving and rich resource.

Originally known as "Private Sector" Jon did a string of Performance based sound performances in late 2004 in NYC. The "SS" was adopted partly to resolve design issues for the LED ER EST / SSPS split 7inch released in late 2007. With the release of that seven inch, it marked the beginning of the Private Sector as "Secret Servant of the Private Sector".In 2008 SSPS again transforms itself into the Saccharine Sister of the Pyramid Snake, and again in 2010 with the Savage Society Private Sector. Jon is also a member of EXCEPTER since 2003. SSPS makes intentional strides to shine the third eye onto the crystal, emanating shades of blues, concrete, and punk . In January 2013, SSPS's membership grows by one with the welcome addition of Brooklyn based designer and rebel rouser- Erica Kenia to the line up. In her off time she gives old clothes new lives through experimentation with clothing label as St. Kenia. She is also the face behind the mask for parties "Kitty" and "Kooler than Jesus" at Wreckroom Bar in Brooklyn, NY. In musical circles she is known as DJ JRK PRTY aka DJ Crytsal Visions.

Mobility Assisted Networking Romit Roy Choudhury Percolating Devices One clear trend: Communication + = Computation devices The quest for anytime, anywhere computing Pervasive, Ubiquitous Access Ad hoc networks vision P2P technology Connective platform available anytime, anywhere However, did not fly well … why ? Several Reasons Bootstrapping Critical density required for performance Performance required for critical density Wireless channel modeling remains elusive End to end connection difficult to sustain Mobility Many real networks clustered, disconnected Mobility is a challenge to cope with Theoretical Result Mobility increases network capacity Under stationary mobility models Intuition In reality, network capacity bounded by interference footprint Mobility can be used for transporting bits Bandwidth consumption -- zero Increasing latency But, with higher node density, greater chance of meeting the destination -- higher capacity Moving from intuition to protocol Last Encounter Routing in Ad Hoc Networks By Grossglauser, Vetterli (IEEE Infocom 2003) Some slides from David Tse, UC Berkeley Location Services Challenge: construct a distributed database out of mobile nodes Approaches: Virtual Home Region: hash destination id to geographic region: rendez-vous point for source and dest (Giordano & Hamdi, EPFL tech. report, 1999) Grid Location Service: quad-tree hierarchy, proximity in hashed id space (Li et al., Mobicom 2000) DREAM: Distance Routing Effect Algorithm (Basagni & Chlamtac & Syrotiuk, Mobicom 1998) Last Encounter History Question: Do we really need a location service? Answer: No (well, at least not always) Observation: history of this local connectivity may be available free Claim: Collection of last encounter histories at network nodes contain enough information about current topology to efficiently route packets Last Encounter Routing Can we efficiently route a packet from a source to a destination based only on LE information, in a large network with n nodes? Assumptions: Dense encounters: O(n^2) pairs of nodes have encountered each other at least once Time-scale separation: packet transmission (ms) << topology change (minutes, hours, days) Memory is cheap (O(n) per node) Basic idea: Packet carries with it: location and age of best (most recent) encounter it has seen so far Routing: packet consults entries for its destination along the way, "zeroes in" on destination Definition: Last Encounter Table encounter at X between A and B at t=10 B A: loc=X, time=10 X C: ... D: ... A B: loc=X, time=10 C: ... Fixed Destination A Moving Destination A A A A A A Exponential Age Search (EASE) -T time source destination 0 ? -T EASE: Messenger Nodes time -T/2 0 EASE: Searching for Messenger Node -T time -T/2 0 Search: who has seen dest at most T/2 secs ago? EASE: Forwarding the Packet time -T -T/2 0 Forwarding towards new position with T:=new encounter age EASE: Sample Route Def: anchor point of age T = pos. of dest. T sec ago EASE: - ring search nodes until src new anchor point of age less than T/2 is found - go there and repeat with T=new age dst Performance of EASE Length of routes clearly depends on mobility Cannot work with iid node positions in every step Model: 2-D lattice, N points, fixed density of nodes Each node knows its own position Independent random walks of nodes on lattice Cost = forwarding cost + search cost Cost of EASE Routes Claim: The asymptotic expected cost for large N of EASE routes is on the order of shortest route, i.e., total forwarding cost is O(shortest path): Forwarding cost: Geometric series of ages -> geometric series of EASE segments Total length = O(shortest path) Improvement: Greedy EASE Simulation: Random Walk Model •N nodes •Positions i.i.d. •Increments i.i.d. Simulation: Random Waypoint •N nodes •Positions i.i.d. •Every node has a waypoint •Moves straight towards waypoint at constant speed •When reached, new waypoint selected uniformly over area Heterogeneous Speeds: Slow Dest Heterogeneous Speeds: Fast Dest Heterogeneous Speeds Another Idea Exploit the Mingling of Peers Retain memory of earlier meetings with nodes Cache <location, time> of each meeting Exchange cached information with new nodes: accept more recent info Node locations percolate quickly - exhibits phase trannsition encounter at location X between A and B A: loc=X, time=10 at t=10 B A B: loc=X, time=10 Gossip Among Nodes A: loc=X, time=10 C: loc=Z, time=19 B C B A: loc=X, time=10 A B: loc=Z, time=19 A: loc=Y, time=15 B: loc=X, time=10 D A B: loc=X, time=10 D: loc=Y, time=15 Very Quick Percolation QuickTime™ and a YUV420 codec decompressor are needed to see this picture. Phase Transition Performance Questions? Related Idea: Last Encounter Flooding With coordinate system Last-encounter information: time + place EASE/GREASE algorithms Blind, no coordinate system Last-encounter information: time only FRESH algorithm: flood to next anchor point Henri Dubois-Ferrière & MG & Martin Vetterli, MOBIHOC 03 Summary: Last Encounter Routing Last Encounter Routing uses position information Diffused for free by node mobility Mobility creates uncertainty, but also provides the means to diffuse new information No explicit location service, no transmission overhead to update state! Only control traffic is local "hello" messages Rich area for more research: Prediction Integration with explicit location services & routing protocols More realistic mobility models FRESH: Last Encounter Flooding Simulation: Random Walk Model What's Missing? LER takes advantage of mobility But not fully Nodes do not carry messages Mobility based disconnection still an issue Theory to Protocol Translate mobility into opportunity Not a peril Use local storage as carrier of bits Storage technology improving drastically Of course latency increases with mobility But, several applications may be tolerant E.g., mobile sensors, sending emails, messaging Also, delayed ubiquity better than disconnection Why Might This Fly ? No end to end sessions Batches of packets (called bundles) travel one-shot • Non pipelined transmission • One link at a time We understand link by link transmission well Disconnection not a problem Some performance feasible even w/o critical density Storage technology improving One-time set up latency + high throughput Pocket Switched Networks: Real-world Mobility and its Consequences for Opportunistic Forwarding Jon Crowcroft, Pan Hui (Ben) Augustin Chaintreau, James Scott, Richard Gass, Christophe Diot Slides adapted from author's slides PSN: Motivations Not always connected, "internet connectivity islands" Huge amount of untapped resources in devices Local wireless bandwidth Storages CPUs A packet can reach destination using network connectivity or user mobility MANET/DTN Thank you but you are in the opposite direction!

Why measure human mobility? Mobility increases capacity of dense mobile network [Tse/Grossglauser>Gupta/Kumar] Also create dis-connectivities[e.g. Tschudin] Human mobility patterns determine communication opportunities Experimental setup iMotes ARM processor Bluetooth radio 64k flash memory Bluetooth Inquiries 5 seconds every 2 minutes Log {MAC address, start time, end time} tuple of each contact Experimental devices Infocom 2005 experiment 54 iMotes distributed Experiment duration: 3 days 41 yielded useful data 11 with battery or packaging problem 2 not returned Brief summary of data 41 iMotes 182 external devices 22459 contacts between iMotes 5791 contacts between iMote/external device External devices are non-iMote devices in the environment, e.g. BT mobile phone, Laptop.

Protocols around 30 min duration… need to cope with this What do we see? Power law distribution for contact and Inter- contact time Both iMotes and external nodes Does not agree with currently used mobility model, e.g. random way point Power law coefficient < 1 Implication of Power Law Coefficient Large coefficient => Smaller delay Consider 2-hops relaying [tse/grossglauser] analysis [TechRep] Denote power law coefficient as a For a > 2 Any stateless algorithm achieves a finite expected delay. For a > (m+1)/m and #{nodes} ≥2m : There exist a forwarding algorithm with m copies and a finite expected delay. For a < 1 No stateless algorithm (even flooding) achieve a bounded delay (Orey's theorem). Frequency of sightings and pairwise contact ? Most nodes inside network One person has huge Many pair-wise contacts. May external contacts not hold for public networks What do we see? Nodes not equal, some active and some not Does not agree with current mobility model, equally distributed. iMotes seen more often than external address More iMotes pair contact Identify Sharing Communities to improve forwarding algorithm How generic is this result? Other nodes (bluetooth phone/pda) Other nets (WiFi) Other communities (kids, random, HK) Are there cliques in the set/community tight-knit sub-communites Popular people/places? Influence of time of day What do we see? Still a power law distribution for any three-hour period of the day Different power law coefficient for different time Maybe different forwarding algorithm for different time of the day Inter-contact for Workplace and University Environment Inter-contact time for WiFi traces Consequences for mobile networking Mobility models needs to be redesigned Exponential decay of inter contact is wrong Mechanisms tested with that model need to be analyzed with new mobility assumptions Stateless forwarding does not work Can we benefit from heterogeneity to forward by communities ? Should we consider different algorithm for different time of the day?

Bleak outlook for young jobseekers worldwide: ILO
Published on Sep 4, 2012 10:18 PM
GENEVA (AFP) - Already chilling youth unemployment figures around the world are set to worsen as the impact from the eurozone debt crisis spreads, an International Labour Organisation report said on Tuesday.
"As the euro area crisis continues in its second year, the impacts are spreading further, slowing down economies from East Asia to Latin America," the UN labour agency pointed out.
This, the organisation predicted, will contribute to a 0.2 percentage point rise in the global youth unemployment rate, from a forecasted 12.7 per cent this year to 12.9 per cent in 2017.
The hike would come even though the developed nation epicentres of the euro crisis are expected to see their devastatingly high youth unemployment figures dip slightly, ILO said. "The projected decline in youth unemployment in the developed economies region is not expected to be enough to pull the global rate downwards," it said in a statement.

Young Leaders UK - Opportunity with the American Embassy!
by Sarah Beckwith on June 27, 2015 19:18
The US Embassy has contacted JCI UK looking for members aged between 18 and 30 to take part in an amazing opportunity.
Ambassador Barzun is launching a new initiative called Young Leaders UK, searching to connect with Britain's rising leaders and engage in exciting opportunities such as virtual mentorship sessions with high-level U.S. officials and selected American visitors, discussions with Embassy leaders on current issues and U.S. Embassy events and receptions.
The process to apply is simple:
Step 1. Write a short text response (not an essay, something the equivalent of a 140 character tweet) OR create a video response (again, nothing professional - videos filmed on a phone are fine. Nothing lengthy - one to two minutes is great) answering three questions:
1. What word or image illustrates what frustrates, concerns or confuses you about the United States?
2. What word or image illustrates what inspires you, what do you like, or what gives you hope about the United States?
3. What word or image comes to mind to describe the Special Relationship between the U.S. and UK?
Step 2. Send the text or video to email@example.com along with name and age. Please let them know you heard about the initiative through JCI UK.
Please let JCI UK Deputy National President Sarah Beckwith know if you do get involved, we'd love to hear about your experiences!
Meet the Member - Mark Smith (JCI Sheffield)
by Fiona Silvester on June 24, 2015 11:17
Introducing Mark Smith, President of JCI Sheffield.
Which chamber are you a member of?
JCI Sheffield
How long have you been a JCI member?
Since 2012 when I learned about an open evening on twitter that JCI was running.
What made you join?
I loved the positivity and enthusiasm of all the people I met at that very first open evening. I could see how JCI could help me to 'meet, learn and grow' both personally and professionally. I liked that membership sounded like good value for money and that you could go to as many meetings, workshops and sessions as you wanted to and that it was flexible. I also liked the idea of the travel opportunities JCI can offer as that was something I wanted to do more of but was always a bit apprehensive about doing!
What is the most interesting JCI event you've been to and why?
This is a hard question to answer! I have really liked taking advantage of the international side by going to European conference and world congress as well as visiting our JCI Sheffield's twin chamber, JCI. Mayo in Ireland. I like meeting people from different backgrounds and with different experiences and the international program really let's you do this. I find listening to talks by successful business people very interesting and getting to ask them questions about what drives them and makes them motivated.
Had JCI presented any unusual/interesting opportunities?
A few that stick out in my mind include taking part in the community 'BEach BETTER' community project whilst at European Convention in Malta in 2014. We had the chance to go snorkelling and to pick up litter from the bottom of the sea bed in the local bay. It was surprising how much rubbish we found.
What is your job/career/profession/business?
I work for children's charity SAFE@LAST as Director of Operations and Strategy. The charity supports children and young people at risk through running away in South Yorkshire. My role is to oversee aspects such as fundraising, volunteering, budgets and accounts, partnership working, marketing and communications so there is a lot of synergy with my involvement with JCI.
Has JCI had any impact on your job/career/profession/business?
I have made some really close friends through JCI, been able to visit countries and places I never thought I would go to and also had my view changed so it seems normal to me now to pop to another country for a long weekend of training! So JCI has widened my perspective! Its given me the opportunity to raise the profile of the charity I work for and has helped to attract new supports, donors and volunteers from the JCI network.
In terms of professionally, JCI has had a positive impact on making new connections and networks for work which has also resulted in donations and sponsorship of the charity as well as recruiting volunteers.
What's your proudest achievement?
It has to be winning the most outstanding JCI member in the world award in 2014. I was completely lost for words and felt very proud to accept the award.
Which do you prefer cats or dogs?
I use to be a dog person when I was younger but now I love cats. I have four and they really are little people in fur coats!
Tell us something crazy/dangerous/inspiring/unusual you have done
Last year I trekked across the Sahara desert for SAFE@LAST with my good friend and fellow JCI member Dan Senter. I can honestly say if it wasn't for JCI, I would never have had the courage, drive or determination to sign up to such a difficult challenge. It was an amazing yet tough experience and the sense of achievement is out of this world!
Thanks Mark!
Jo Mackfall's review of LEAP: 10 months on
by James Lambert on June 23, 2015 07:05
If someone had asked me twelve months ago if I thought I was a leader, or if I thought I had the skills, knowledge and belief to be a leader, I'd have answered both questions with a straight forward 'no'. I would say I was a confident person, and my parents (and some friends!) may have described me as bossy at times, but I personally wouldn't have given myself the credit to describing myself as a leader. That all changed when I spent 48 hours at the 2014 LEAP academy last August.
I remember discussing LEAP with Ben Hawley, and Tracy Anderson, JCI Barnsley's then President and Deputy President after a training session or council meeting about this time last year. I forget which, but it was in the bar of the Holiday Inn, so could have been either as we usually end up in there! We had been talking about how much I would get out of it, how I would benefit from it, and perhaps how it would open my eyes to my options to progressing within JCI. They were keen for me to go, and so (with the little internet signal we get in that bar), I booked on that same evening.
It was a 48 hour experience I will never forget. It was exhausting, both from lack of sleep and from the sheer amount of training that got packed into the weekend, but it was inspiring and generally a blooming good weekend from start to finish. I not only came away full of skills and knowledge from the training sessions, but also a whole new bunch of JCI contacts, who each were an inspiration through the weekend.
Fast track twelve months and here I am, JCI Barnsley 2015 Deputy President, and a trainee conveyancer. I attribute both the progression in JCI and the progression in my professional life to attending LEAP. I think it was always destined that, at some point in my JCI career, I would become a President of JCI Barnsley – it's in my blood – but I don't think anyone thought it would happen so soon. Without attending LEAP and having the camaraderie of the other delegates and the trainers alike, I wouldn't have had the confidence to go for it.
JCI offer huge numbers of opportunities for members in all areas of opportunity and at all levels of the organisation. LEAP is one of those opportunities. There are still places available to attend LEAP this year and I cannot recommend it highly enough!

What does it mean to be on National Board?
by Sarah Beckwith on June 21, 2015 19:00
If you're thinking about a National Board role in 2016, you may want to know what will be expected of you. I'm pleased to be able to publish the attached guidance, which sets out the main roles and responsibilities of the various National Board positions, plus a rough indication of the time commitment involved. Huge thanks to the current National Board team for their input into compiling this document.
I want to stress that these roles are not rigid. In the past some have been combined (e.g. Admin and Membership), while some have been split (Marketing/Communications had two directors in 2012). Ultimately many of the roles overlap and National Board will work together to deliver the outputs needed. We will use each other's strengths and support development needs to get results and ensure everyone has a great learning experience.
Here are some comments from current and past National Board members on why they took on particular roles and what they've got out of their experience.
"Being on National Board is a new experience for me after being a member of JCI for 7 years. It is interesting to see JCI from a different angle and I have learnt a lot from taking on a national board role".
Wasim Alfaisal, International Director 2015
"I took on this role because for over 12 years I have professionally been based in roles that involved building partnerships with a variety of different organisation. I have worked within the charitable sector for seven years and now within the vocational education arena which will allow me to use my professional skills to the benefit of JCI UK. I am a blue sky thinker. The answer is 'yes', the question is 'how can we do it?'. Networking and forming professional relationships is one of my biggest strengths and I genuinely enjoy doing it".
Michael Steel, Strategic Partnerships Director 2015
"The best thing about being on National Board is hanging out with a group of great, positive, supportive people. It's infectious".
Paul Widger, Finance Director 2014 & 2015
"I took on this role because I was excited about the impact JCI has on our members and wanted to contribute to the organisation and tell as many people as possible about it".
Michaela Schaller, Marketing Director 2014/15
"It's the contact with local board members and any potential/new members to JCI that I enjoy the most about my role. Seeing people join the organisation and then progress into running projects or taking on local roles. It's always rewarding supporting new and smaller chambers and seeing them grow and develop. I love the amount of contact I get from members on a daily basis that reminds me why I love doing this role".
Fiona Silvester, Membership Director 2014 & 2015
"There is something truly special about a member coming up to you after a training event that you've organised or delivered and saying they learned something which is going to make a difference for them. Knowing you've helped someone develop their skills and confidence is incredibly gratifying".
Sarah Beckwith, Personal Development Director 2014
Meet the Member - Tracy Anderson (JCI Barnsley)
by Fiona Silvester on June 17, 2015 07:58
Introducing 2015 JCI Barnsley President, Tracy Anderson
Which chamber are you a member of?
How long have you been a JCI member?
I've been a member since 2007, I joined my home town chamber JCI Boston, I moved over to JCI Barnsley in 2013
What made you join?
My colleague Allison Cowell was a member and she invited me along to a business tour of Walkers crisp factory in Lincoln, I met such nice people. I thought a social life would do me good so I joined.
What is the most interesting JCI event you've been to and why?
This is a difficult one as I've been to many events, locally, regionally, nationally and internationally! Last year's International events (European Conference in Malta and World Congress in Leipzig) are the probably the highlights. The reason being, you get to experience all areas of JCI at them, training, business, community, and some decent parties! I love a business visit and I went on two tours in Malta, The playmobil and Coca Cola tour. I also managed to go around Porsche in Leipzig.
Had JCI presented any unusual/interesting opportunities?
Yes, many, to name just a few, I have attempted the Yorkshire 3 peaks, walked up Snowdon, volunteered at a colour run where we got to throw paint at the runners, lived on a £1 a day for a week, had a go at laser tag, archery and I have held a meerkat at an annual dinner.
What is your job/career/profession/business?
I'm a chartered accountant
Has JCI had any impact on your job/career/profession/business?
Yes, JCI has given me confidence.
What's your proudest achievement?
In JCI I would say my proudest achievement was just recently, At the JCI Barnsley Annual dinner I gave my incoming speech to over 60 people. When I joined public speaking was a definite no no, I got extremely nervous doing the loyal toast at my first annual dinner. JCI have given me the confidence and opportunities to calm and practice public speaking in a safe environment.
Who's your favourite band/artist?
Tell us something crazy/dangerous/inspiring/unusual you have done
None, I'm an accountant......
Thanks Tracy!!
National Board 2016 - Your Questions Answered
by Sarah Beckwith on June 14, 2015 09:23
Being on the JCI UK National Board is a fantastic experience. You get the chance to work with dedicated members from different chambersfrom around the country, learn new skills including contributing to the strategic planning for the organisation, help support the great work being undertaken by our local chambers and of course have lots of fun!
As Deputy National President it is my honour to recruit the National Board team for 2016. I am so excited about the buzz being generated about 2016 already and can't wait to see who steps forward to take on a leading role in JCI UK next year.
Here is our Frequently Asked Questions about standing for a National Board position:
Who is eligible to stand? Any fully-paid up member of JCI UK with a passion for getting involved at the national level of the organisation.
What experience do I need? At least one year of local council experience is helpful as you will be liaising with and mentoring the local council directors. It is considered best practice for candidates for Deputy National President to have served for one year on National Board, but this is not a constitutional requirement.
Don't I need to have been a local president? No! See above.
What is the time commitment? You are expected to attend around 6 national board meetings a year, plus 4 national events, all of which take place over weekends. Additional activities such as international and local events are encouraged, but at your own choice.
Each role has a different type of remit, which will affect the frequency and intensity of activity. Some roles are focussed on event or project co-ordination, some require mentoring of other members and others involve ongoing administrative tasks. Look out for our next blog which will contain more details of the roles and responsibilities of the various national board positions.
Isn't it costly? There is a purse for national board members in the national budget, which helps toward the cost of travel and hotels for the meetings which take place around the country (although is unlikely to stretch to all costs for the whole year). This is currently £500 for most directors, slightly more for the international director and less for the Regional Group Chairs as they are also supported by their region. The Deputy and National President get a larger purse as they must represent JCI UK at several international events throughout the year.
What do I need to do to stand? Fill in this form (also available from Admin Director Fiona Silvester) and get chambers to propose and second you. One of these can be your own chamber. It is best practice to get the approval of your home chamber via the local president before standing.
What is the deadline? The completed form must be submitted to Admin Director Fiona Silvester by Friday 14 August.
What happens if there is more than one candidate for a role? Elections will be held at the AGM on 12 September in Sheffield. For contested elections, the Local Presidents (following consultation with members/their council team) and National Board members will vote by secret ballot. Candidates may run an election campaign in accordance with these guidelines.
What if I can't commit to a national board role but still want to be involved? Worry not, there are plenty of ways to get involved nationally in JCI UK in 2016 including project management roles, such as TOYP Director and LEAP Director, as well as roles supporting the National Board team. We also welcome your own ideas for national projects and initiatives.
How can I find out more? Speak to me or any of the current team about their specific roles.
Meet the Member - Phil Cockayne (JCI Bradford)
by Fiona Silvester on June 10, 2015 10:32
Introducing Phil Cockayne, President of JCI Bradford.
Which chamber are you a member of?
JCI Bradford
How long have you been a JCI member?
Since November 2013
What made you join?
To do something constructive outside of work and at the same time - refine my leadership skills and meet new people
What is the most interesting JCI event you've been to and why?
Probably National Convention in Canary Wharf - it was great to meet up with friends from other chambers, meet new people, witness the new and rising JCI Canary Wharf, experience Canary Wharf as a district, take part in both Extempore and Debating competitions (and, despite it being my first attempt, being named best Debater in the UK).
Had JCI presented any unusual/interesting opportunities?
Aged 23, it feels pretty good to be leading a small organisations. It brings you a few interesting opportunities including sitting on the Council of Bradford Chamber of Commerce, being invited to numerous high profile events and speaking on Bradford Community Broadcast Radio. It also got me in a room with some delegates from the US Embassy for a high-profile meeting on the 30th Floor of the Barclays building in Canary Wharf. Not bad for a lad from rural Yorkshire
What is your job/career/profession/business?
After leaving university with a degree in history - I joined a Bradford based software firm as their first dedicated sales resource.
Has JCI had any impact on your job/career/profession/business?
Perhaps in less direct ways. As well as improving my communications, public speaking and presenting - JCI has also provided some sales opportunities from places I wouldn't have been if it wasn't for JCI
What's your proudest achievement?
250% membership growth as Deputy President in 2014. Bradford was a struggling chamber between the years of 2010 and 2013 - with sometimes as low as 3 members. The chamber was close to going dormant. After starting with 7 members in 2013, at the end of 2014 we were on 17. Going into 2015 - we're already on 23. 2015 is going to a good year for us - with the launch of our Leadership Programme, a great partnership with the Chamber of Commerce, a structured set of training sessions and social sessions, some great partnerships and a vibrant council team, 2015 should be the year we see JCI Bradford put back on the map
What is your favourite colour of socks to wear?
Am I allowed to say multi-coloured stripy socks (which I'm fond of wearing to black tie events so keep your eyes peeled)
Tell us something crazy/dangerous/inspiring/unusual you have done
I'll give you one of each:
Crazy - didn't want to pay to run a marathon so plotted 26.2 miles on a map and ran it - went from Shepley in Yorkshire to Castleton in the Hope Valley. Over the moors, piercing rain, freezing cold temperatures. Did it in 4 hours 56 minutes
Dangerous - jumping over a 3 and a half metre gap at Brimham Rocks (with a good 4 metre drop below) - see picture attached
Inspiring - Convinced a new member to start a community project which he led all by himself. After applying for a £500 community grant - he was awarded £2,500. The project was a huge success which got great local coverage
Unusual - One of my favourite past-times is obstacle course races. True happiness only exists when you've run 6 miles and your chest deep in a festering, muddy pond - you can hold me to that
Thanks Phil!
Meet the Member - Katie Ogley (JCI Doncaster)
by Fiona Silvester on June 3, 2015 17:42
Today we get a special treat. We get to meet and active member who is also a Senator. Introducing Katie Ogley from JCI Doncaster...
Which chamber are you a member of?
JCI Doncaster.
How long have you been a JCI member?
Approximately 9 years.
What made you join?
I've always liked doing things for people and going that extra mile. When I was preparing some surprises for my netball team's weekend away, my mum's friend said that her daughter was involved with 'something' and they were always looking for people who liked doing things, which turned out to be JCI. When I went to my first event, they were such a lovely group of people, I signed up there and then. I knew it was something I had to be involved in.
What is the most interesting JCI event you've been to and why?
I would struggle to say anything other than the International Conferences! I've been to every European Conference since 2010 and 3 World Conferences. They've all been amazing experiences that I could go on about for hours and it would be impossible to list the reasons why, as they have all been so different. The best way for me to help explain why, would just be to say 'GO'! I was a member of JCI for a number of years before I got engaged with the International side of things and I regret not doing it straight away.
Had JCI presented any unusual/interesting opportunities?
So many! The opportunity to attend The Art of Engagement a few years ago was amazing. Engagement is very linked to my career so people are often quite impressed that I've been. Also, without a doubt, the public speaking opportunities. I used to be so afraid of public speaking, but thanks to training from JCI and the opportunity to practise in a safe environment, I've now come to love it. The fact that I enjoy it is certainly something which many people think is unusual! I'm honoured to have represented JCI UK on the International Debating Team on more than one occasion.
What is your job/career/profession/business?
I work in HR within the glass manufacturing industry.
Has JCI had any impact on your job/career/profession/business?
Yes, yes, yes!!! This has become over-so prevalent in 2015. Until this year I worked within the health and fitness/leisure industry. I took a massive step outside of my comfort zone and, after nearly 11 years, I decided to leave the company I loved and change the industry I work in. The reason I chose manufacturing/production was down to JCI. It isn't something I'd ever thought of before, but I've have had the opportunity to do business tours of so many fabulous companies, such as Gripple and Coca-Cola, and I fell in love with it.
As well as helping me choose my new industry, my JCI experience also helped me get the job which I have moved to. When I started with my new company, I was given the opportunity to sit down with the Plant Director and he explained the reasons behind why they wanted to hire me. He said that I ticked all of the HR boxes, but there will always be other people who do that too. What made me stand out was that I ticked lots of other little boxes, which no one else did. These were things such as my experiences with the Art of Engagement and the community work I do. The company has a huge passion for people and has strong philanthropic roots. They are striving towards setting best practise standards in these fields, and I'm excited that they want me to be a part of that.
Who is a leader you admire?
I admire a number of different leaders, but Richard Branson always jumps to my mind first. He is hugely successful, but comes across as so personable. He has made mistakes which he doesn't hide and he isn't afraid to take chances.
What's your proudest achievement?
It would have to be being chosen as one of the 2012 Olympic Torchbearers. My nomination covered a number of things, but it was primarily for the amount of charity and community work I have undertaken with JCI. I do community work because I love it, not because I expect to get anything in return, but being given that honour, and getting to be part of history, was the most amazing acknowledgement I could ever ask for!
I also couldn't not mention one of the very few moments which has made me speechless, being awarded with my JCI Senatorship. JCI has given me so much and that's why I wanted to be on the National Board in 2014, to give something back. JCI is such an amazing organisation, even when I thought I'd had every experience possible, it's still giving and giving.
If we came to your home and looked inside your refrigerator, what would we see?
A lot of fresh veg, cheese, milk and champagne
What is a good weekend to you?
I like having a mix of how I spend my weekends. I love taking the time to do JCI activities, which at a weekend are usually my favourites; community or social! I also like spending time with my family and always try to take a day every now and again for a bit of 'me time'.
Tell us something crazy/dangerous/inspiring/unusual you have done.
I sometimes joke that my body is dedicated to charity! I have a large tattoo on my ribs which I had done to mark Autism Awareness Month a couple of years ago, and I also cut off 9 inches of my hair, which was donated to a children's wig charity. I'm currently punishing my body as I'm training for a 10k run with other JCI members for the Run With Us challenge in support of the MS Trust.
Thanks Katie

Meet the Member - Fiona Silvester - National Board
by Fiona Silvester on May 28, 2015 08:02
I thought it was only fair that I fill in a Meet the Member questionnaire for our Meet the National Board week. So here's me, Fiona, JCI UK Membership and Admin Director...
Which chamber are you a member of?
JCI Rotherham
How long have you been a JCI member?
About 4 years - time flies when you're having fun!
What made you join?
I was lucky enough to get a sponsored place to join JCI Sheffield from senators Bob and Sarah Brown. After enjoying the first 12 months I've continued to pay for my membership.
What is the most interesting JCI event you've been to and why?
Wow it's tough to narrow this down to just one. I love all the regional and national competitions. Seeing everyone come together to support each other and members pushing themselves out of their comfort zone to compete. It always makes for an entertaining evening. I recently got to attend National Convention in the USA. It was great to see all the differences between the two national organisations. Everyone was extremely welcoming and the opening event was sponsored by Jack Daniels which undoubtedly made for a great evening. The highlight of the weekend had to be the TOYP (ten outstanding young people) awards ceremony. The honourees were all extremely deserving and there wasn't a dry eye in the room hearing their stories.
Had JCI presented any unusual/interesting opportunities?
The mean opportunity JCI has presented to me is meeting other JCI members and learning from them, whether that's in the UK or part of the global organisation. You never know who you're going to meet and what you can learn.
What is your job/career/profession/business?
I work for a 'Made in Sheffield' manufacturing company that produces machine knives and blades and safety knives. I look after our American and Canadian customers which includes spending a quarter of the year in the states.
Has JCI had any impact on your job/career/profession/business?
I'm unrecognisable as the person who joined JCI 4 years ago. The extra confidence and ability to process and formulate ideas and procedures has definitely helped to advance my career.
Who is a leader you admire?
There are many leaders I admire for their differing and unconventional approach to leadership but Matt Cutts from Google stands out for me. A typical pasty white, scrawny, 4 eyes computer nerd has taken himself out of his comfort zone. He set himself tasks he never thought possible, both personally and professionally, and related what he has learnt to truly lead by example and get the best out of people working with him. He is unrecognisable now after 10 years at Google and an inspiration to his team.
Fiona at National Convention Nov 2014
What's your proudest achievement?
Although it may not sound a lot writing it down here and others may not class it as an achievement but in 2014 I overcame my fear of flying. I hadn't flown for nearly 15 years, hadn't been abroad, hadn't had any proper sunshine or been on a 'proper' holiday. After a series of hypnotherapy sessions and a course on flying with confidence I've now done 19 flights since September 2014 and had a holiday in the sun with my husband.
Where's your favourite place to eat?
Anywhere that has a clean kitchen and I don't have to wash up! The come dine with us series that JCI Rotherham are running is a particular highlight as each member chooses their favourite restaurant to invite the others too. I've discovered a lot of new tasty places to eat in Rotherham that I never knew existed before.
What is your perfect weekend?
After only having 3 weeks at home in the last 3 months my perfect weekend would be at home, spending time with friends and generally not doing a lot. My TV box has hours of TV to catch up on and there's a bag of Maltesers with my name on them.
Tell us something crazy/dangerous/inspiring/unusual you have done
I climbed to 4,500 metres above sea level on a 17 day trek across India. I'm not in a rush to go back and do it again but it was a great achievement with lots of lovely memories.

George Owings, of Maryland, married a Miss Wells, by whom he had twelve children. He was married the second time, and had twelve children more. Two of his sons, John and Thomas, by his first wife, came to Missouri in 1816, and settled in Warren County. Thomas married Mary O'Brien, and moved to Illinois. John was in the war of 1812. He married Hattie McGarvey, by whom he had fifteen children James M., Richard, George W., David R., Joseph E., John B., Thomas, William H., Wesley, Rachel, Nancy, Julia, Maria, Eliza J., and Emily. All the children lived to be grown, and all married except Wesley and Rachel. Mr. Owings was a devout Methodist, and built a church near his house, which he called Ebenezer. He came to Missouri in a cart, drawn by two horses, one before the other. He kept this cart for many years, and used it on his farm.

A Marion County man was killed after he became trapped in a grain bin at 911 Merrimac Road in Bradfordsville around 3:40 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 21.
Joseph Gary Blanford, 64, of Holy Cross, had climbed into the bin to attempt to unclog the auger when the soybeans caved in on top of him, causing him to be buried in the soybeans, according to a press release from the Taylor County Sheriff's Office.
Blanford was pronounced dead by Taylor County Coroner Terry Dabney at the scene. Dabney said Blanford died as a result of asphyxia.
Local police and the FBI are on the lookout for two men with ties to a kidnapping in Missouri who were last seen near Bardstown.
Police announced that they're looking for the suspects, who are considered armed and dangerous, after a stolen van involved in the abduction was found wrecked on the Bluegrass Parkway Thursday.
At press time, both suspects were still at large and authorities say it's unknown if the suspects are still in Kentucky.
Snow began falling about 8 a.m. Thursday in LaRue County, making road conditions treacherous in some areas.
Slick roads may have been a factor in a two-vehicle collision that occurred about 8:24 a.m. at the intersection of U.S. 31-E (Bardstown Road) and Ky. 84 (Howardstown) in White City.
The State Auditor released last week the remainder of audits from the LaRue County Sheriff's office between 2011 and Feb. 28, 2013.
Audits for the period of April 16, 2011 to April 15, 2012, and March 1, 2013 to April 15, 2013, were released last month by the Auditor of Public Accounts.
Stephenie Hoelscher, a spokesperson for the state auditor's office said a certified public accountant was contracted to do the audit – and it is not unusual for a CPA to do the work.
The felony charges of former Hodgenville mayor Terry L. Cruse and former city clerk/treasurer MaDonna Hornback continue to plod through the court system.
Circuit Judge Charles Simms III, who is overseeing the cases, is determined to resolve them soon. The trial is set to begin Feb. 23 in Nelson County.
In an effort to combat obesity, the Food and Drug Administration issued a new regulation that would require all chain restaurants, theaters, amusement parks and grocery delis to disclose calorie contents of the food they offer to patrons, which could lead to increased prices on food consumed at these establishments.
Dewayne Gibson, pastor of Parkway Baptist Church, is looking ahead to an exciting Shoeper Bowl as well as Super Bowl Feb. 1.
Shoeper Bowl is the name for a drive, sponsored by Sports Reach and Audience One, to collect 6,000 pairs of shoes for distribution in countries where Sports Reach ministers. Feb. 1 is the culmination date.
No fire
Hodgenville Fire Department responded to a report of a possible explosion and structure fire at 10 p.m. Jan. 10 on Miami Court. The homeowner later reported a shelf had fallen off the wall.
The home of Edna Mae Owens was damaged Jan. 15 by a fire that began in a utility room.
Hodgenville, LaRue, Buffalo and Magnolia firefighters were dispatched to a brick house on North Summit Avenue about 8:20 p.m.
Hodgenville Fire Chief Wally Sparks said the utility room – containing washer, dryer and electric panel – was reached by going outside the main house. The room was extensively damaged; however, the main house escaped most of the smoke and water damage.
"There was some damage in the kitchen area," said Sparks.

Thanks for sharing the article. But what difference does it make? That doesn't affect DG's sales, EBITDA, cash-flow, etc. Not all investors are so myopic and short-term oriented, you know?

The discussion regarding Larsa Banquet Hall and its Amethyst Way neighbors, who have filed noise complaints against the center, will be reprised at both the City of Turlock and Stanislaus County Planning Commission meetings on Thursday.
The Korean War aged cannon that has stood watch over the corner of North Palm and Canal Drive in front of Turlock's War Memorial building was removed from its current location on Monday as a result of the City of Turlock's sale of the 900 N. Palm Avenue properties to the Turlock Irrigation District.
It's not every day that local, state, and federal legislators convene in the same room, but on Thursday locals will have the opportunity to interface with their elected leaders at the fourth annual Turlock Government Night.
After taking its solid waste to Merced for nearly two years, the City of Turlock is returning its trash dumping services to Stanislaus County which is posing a relatively small fee hike for customers.
A question of how public should public information be colored the conversation at the Turlock City Council meeting Tuesday night. Members were divided over whether the winding down of the Turlock Chamber of Commerce's contract to operate the Convention and Visitors Bureau was worthy of the public meeting just yet.
After months of negotiations, the City of Turlock has reached an agreement with Stanislaus County for solid waste disposal that the Turlock City Council will consider ratifying on Tuesday.
Tuesday marks Mayor Gary Soiseth's 100th day in office, but he has yet to have his official photo taken to hang in the Yosemite Board Room where the Turlock City Council convenes. While Soiseth stated he is more focused on policy than having his photograph taken, he said it will eventually happen, though perhaps when he is less tired.
The City of Turlock is alleging that the Turlock Chamber of Commerce spent $241,297.07 of taxpayer dollars on items not permitted under the Convention and Visitors Bureau contract, an agreement the Chamber has executed for the past 24 years.
Tuesday marked the end of Turlock Mayor Gary Soiseth's workshop series dedicated to reviewing City services as part of his 100-day commitment.
There will be a new skate park at Donnelly Park in upcoming months if the Turlock City Council approves an agreement with a Santa Cruz based consulting firm for design and construction elements Tuesday night.
It could become more difficult for fast food restaurants to set up shop near downtown Turlock as the Planning Commission will be revisiting permitting requirements for the eateries at their next meeting.
Four years and 18 public workshops later and the City of Turlock has repealed and replaced its Zoning Ordinance.
California Gov. Jerry Brown's executive order that mandates communities across California reduce their water usage by 25 percent has proven not enough for the City of Turlock.
Mobile food vendors are officially not permitted in Turlock's downtown core as the City Council unanimously voted to prohibit them Tuesday evening.
Californians are not fishing, despite the fact that the state boasts over 4,000 lakes and reservoirs, thousands of rivers and streams and an extensive coastline.
Page 3 of 71
The populations and attributes of Turlock and Los Angeles may vary greatly, but that didn't stop Mayor Gary Soiseth and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti from finding some common ground in the essentials of governing a city: making sure the police are on patrol; that the garbage is picked up; and that water flows when the tap is turned on.
The City of Turlock is charting new territory with the Morgan Ranch Master Plan, a planned development on the south side of Turlock that will include a new school. It is the first time that a medium density residential range of this size will be collectively developed as an estimated 980 to 1,200 units are anticipated at full build out.
Downtown Turlock will officially play host to the first annual Turlock Criterium bike Race on Aug. 8 after the Turlock City Council unanimously passed the item on Tuesday.
National Pollinator Week may have come to a close on June 21, but Congressman Jeff Denham (R – Turlock) is aiming to highlight the importance of bees all year-round.
