The period reviewed will be 1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016, and we will review the annual report, sustainability report and supporting year end reporting documents such as preliminary results and accompanying investor presentations on the company's website. Our shortlist will be drawn from those companies that have performed well across the range of BPTA categories, showing excellence in all areas of corporate reporting and an ability to build real trust with their investors and customers.
This year's award looks beyond regulatory compliance for companies "telling it how it is" and presenting a compelling and integrated narrative across the key pillars of strategic, governance, remuneration, sustainability, people and tax reporting.
Corporate reporting excellence is demonstrated when engaging, relevant, reliable and timely information is provided without unnecessary clutter; when a balance is achieved between the three pillars of reporting - content, quality and integration. Within content we look at the information the company has chosen to report – does it include all the critical, and relevant, elements our research with preparers and users globally tells us they need to understand the quality and sustainability of performance? Quality refers to the depth and materiality of the information – does the company use only qualitative information or is narrative supported with quantitative data, when relevant, benchmarks and targets? Does the reporting cover the past, present and future? Finally, for integration, we consider how well a company demonstrates a clear, consistent and balanced message across its communication channels and the linkage and inter-dependencies between the different elements reported, as well as relating them back to the strategic themes set out as key to company success in the short, medium and longer-term.
Underpinning our assessment of excellence in reporting are the concepts of innovation and trust. We will be looking for companies who lead the way with a fresh approach to meeting the needs of investors and other key stakeholders.
This award will be judged by the BPTA Judging Panel sitting on 14 September 2016

Welcome to Ely Choral Society
Ely Choral Society is a flourishing mixed voice community choir conducted by Andrew Parnell, one of the UK's foremost choral conductors.
Concerts are held in Ely Cathedral and other venues locally with professional soloists and orchestras, together with musicians from the Ely and Cambridge area.
The Ely Youth Choir for 13 to 18s was launched with great success in 2010 and is aimed at teenagers who want to experience the fun and excitement of choral singing to public audiences.
Next concert...
The main item at the next concert is Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. Carmina Burana is Carl Orff's best-known work, and it brings together all the most interesting elements of his musical style. Although the text is taken from the writings of itinerant students in the 12th and 13th centuries, the music is full of 20th century rhythmic vitality and energy, whilst being enduringly accessible, with its often simple, repeated phrases and uncomplicated harmonies. The opening chorus, O Fortuna, is very familiar to many people, through its use in various TV shows and adverts, from the Old Spice adverts of the 1970s to its use as the main theme for The X Factor.
Carmina Burana is in three main sections, with the first celebrating the return of Spring and the promise of love. The second addresses the vices of gambling and drinking and includes a boisterous and energetic drinking song, as well as the famous lament of the roasted swan, whilst the third returns to the theme of love, with the music becoming increasingly passionate and exciting.
The piece will be accompanied by a newly available commission from Making Music designed to be performed as a companion piece to Carmina Burana, Jonathan Dove's Arion And The Dolphin. Arion is a young poet from Corinth who wins first prize in a singing contest in Sicily. During his voyage home, the sailors plot to kill him and keep his prize-money. Arion begs to sing one last song, and they allow him. His song draws dolphins to the ship. As soon as he finishes his song, he jumps overboard and is rescued by one of the dolphins who carries him to safety. The dolphin ends among the stars, as the constellation Delphinus.The story is told as a sequence of songs, with a soloist as Arion, tenors and basses as the sailors, and children's voices representing the dolphin.
The soloists for the concert will be Tara Bungard (soprano), Ashley Harries (counter-tenor) and Mark Gotham (baritone). The pianists will be Maurice and Thanea Hodges, the percussion section will be led by Will Sivier and the conductor will be Andrew Parnell.

Great time – only 2.0s slower than pacesetter Neuville. "That was really hard. I had one soft tyre that helped a bit but I couldn't really take any risks. I had some understeer."
Sat 17:30 - SS8: Latvala –
15.2 slower than Neuville. The gap to the podium is now 33.3s. "The time is not good. We went very soft with the car on the clicks but it was too soft. Some of the grip was better than I thought."

Fastest time for the Hyundai driver. He goes 10.7s faster than Mikkelsen to underline his second place. "I went off a little in the beginning and hit some stones. I had a vibration but then it went. I tried to push and I know I'm good in these conditions."

Sat 16:52 - Stage info: SS8 –
Novella - Pietralba 2, 30.80km A repeat of this morning's SS6, this is a stage where the locals say that if your car works on this one, it will work on any of Corsica's roads. The crews start close to the Pietra Monetta Auberge and they have to cope with several difficult corners to reach the Novella village perched high in the mountains. The stage then follows a much narrower and bumpier road on a worn road surface before arriving at the finish in Pietralba.

The leading crews are now waiting at the start of SS8 where some rain-soaked asphalt awaits.

Sat 16:22 - SS7: WRC 2 Evans –

Sat 16:18 - SS7: Camilli –
Ninth fastest means the M-Sport man drops a place to eighth overall. The rain has been a big factor.
Sat 16:15 - SS7: Breen –
The rain slows the Irishman down. He's 41.2s down at the finish but retains fifth place. "That was really tricky and hard to judge the pace in these conditions."
Sat 16:13 - SS7: Tänak –
He's 1m 13.2s down at the finish. But the rain won't do him any harm as he's been struggling with the heat in his DMACK tyres up until this point.
Sat 16:11 - SS7: Østberg –

The Belgian retains second place by going second fastest. The gap between him and Mikkelsen is now 10.8s. "I had a very good stage. We made a nice change with the rear differential on the car in service and I now have a bit more turn in. That's what I wanted."
Sat 16:03 - SS7: Paddon –
The Hyundai driver completes 30.0s shy of Ogier's benchmark pace. "That was as much as I could do. Car is there or there abouts – it just comes down to my driving. But we can go away and look at all the data after the rally to see where we can improve."
Sat 16:00 - SS7: Mikkelsen –
He finishes 11.3s slower than Ogier. "I think I used my tyres a bit too much in the beginning. They were going off in the end."
Sat 15:58 - SS7: Ogier –
"Close to the start we had some rain just before and it was a bit on the limit. Some parts on the road are messy after the first pass but this is normal."
Sat 15:57 - SS7: Ogier –
The rally leader has completed the stage in 35m 38.1s.

Sat 15:08 - Stage info: SS7 –
La Porta - Valle di Rostino 2, 53.72km A legendary stage that is a re-run of SS5 earlier in the day. A technical uphill section from the Pont de Rimitorio start ends at La Porta church, before twisty and bumpy roads run through Giocatojo and up to the Col Saint Antoine. The descent on new and older asphalt heads through several villages before climbing again to Campile. A twistier road tracks the mountainside before a series of abrasive downhill hairpins leads to the finish.

Sat 11:53 - SS6: WRC 2 Evans –

Fri 15:01 - SS3: Paddon –

Fri 14:57 - SS3: Ogier –
The rally leader completes in 30m 11.6s – almost 13 seconds faster than his time this morning. "Very hot conditions and the tyre was moving a lot. I couldn't really push because of the tyres and I had no idea what rhythm I had at the end. It wasn't easy for me."

The Citroën DS 3 R5 driver has lost 1m 21.2s. "I lose the power steering half way through the stage."
Fri 11:54 - SS2: WRC 2 Gilbert –
He's lost 43.9s to Kopecky. "We have a problem with the clutch. The performance is finished." With no midday service, that could be a tricky one to fix.
Fri 11:52 - SS2: WRC 2 Kopecky –
The Czech driver is the fastest WRC 2 runner in this stage so far. "I was pushing from the beginning but struggling with the handling of the car a bit – some understeer in places."
Fri 11:51 - SS2: WRC 2 Evans –
The Welshman drops 4.3s to Kopecky but still leads the category by 13.6s. "The car was moving around quite a lot but the time isn't too bad."
Fri 11:50 - SS2: Bertelli –

The Fiesta RS driver holds on to his tenth place overall and is now 9.7 behind Breen ahead. "Difficult. We have pushed in the stage but the time was not really there. I don't know."
Fri 11:45 - SS2: Breen –
The Irishman is 17s off the pace and drops two places to eighth position. "That was a better stage for us and happy with the time. All the other drivers have come fresh from a Tarmac rally in Germany. A lot more quicker than I expected."
Fri 11:43 - SS2: Meeke –
The DS 3 driver is fourth fastest and retains his second place. But the gap to Ogier is now 14.7s. "Had a good stage, although quite dirty in a few places. Happy with what we're doing."

The Fiesta driver drops 38.2s and is now 1m 32.3 off the lead. "It's a learning curve at the moment."
Fri 11:40 - SS2 Østberg –
The M-Sport driver loses 32.4s as he learns a new driving style. "Hit a bank and some rocks on the outside so a bit lucky there. It felt better in here but I maybe wanted a bit too much and we lost time?"
Fri 11:38 - SS2: Sordo –
The Spaniard loses 14.1s and is confused as to why. "Felt much better than the first stage but the time was not good. I had a bit of understeer but not the best time."
Fri 11:36 - SS2: Latvala
The 2015 rally winner loses another 14s and now 32.1s off the lead. "Not the time I should be able to do. I don't know. Maybe I was a bit wrong with what I did in the test and thought it would be good for the rally? Maybe the set-up has gone in the wrong direction and the rhythm isn't the greatest either?"
Fri 11:33 - SS2: Neuville –
The Belgian is 8.7s slower than Ogier at the stage finish. "I'm not comfortable all the time. Sometimes I have huge oversteer and then some understeer. It was a bit better than the first stage."
Fri 11:31 - SS2: Paddon –
He's 14.6s slower than Ogier. "The notes were better, but sliding a lot quite a lot especially in the rear."
Fri 11:29 - SS2: Mikkelsen –
The Norwegian's slow start continues. He's 10.1s slower than Ogier at the finish. "Struggling with my foot a little but I think I did an okay time in there. Hopefully I can get a massage and that will work some magic."
Fri 11:27 - SS2: Ogier –
The rally leader completes the stage in 18m 39.6s. "Very enjoyable stage. Some work to do on the set-up to be perfect but it's not bad and a good start to the rally for us. Try to get a good felling and, for sure, I was pushing a bit more in this one than I did in the first."
Fri 11:25 - SS2: Paddon –
The timing system is showing the Hyundai driver hasn't made it to the second split and has been passed by Neuville just behind. More info to follow...

The first of the JWRC runners is in with a time of 34m 15.6s. "Our rhythm was really good. After the recce I expected that the road would be dirty but it wasn't so bad. We didn't push at all. The rally is really long."
Fri 10:10 - SS1: Suninen –

Fri 10:05 - SS1: Abbring –
The Dutchman is third fastest in WRC 2. "Really enjoyable. I took it a bit easy as I didn't want to overdrive the tyres. I could have pushed a bit more and some other things I'd like to change on the car."

The JWRC front-runner appears to have stopped after the second split in the stage. Reason unknown...

Fri 09:49 - SS1: Breen –
Current sixth fastest as he posts a time that's 17s slower than Ogier's best. "That was a bit of a wake up call. Really struggled to get a rhythm and killed the tyres early. I had to wait for them to come back on again."
Fri 09:47 - SS1: Meeke –
The Brit is only 4s slower than Ogier and currently second overall. "I spun at a hairpin not far into the stage. But I got back into my rhythm straight away and that time is good on a dirty road."

Fri 09:44 - SS1: Østberg –
The M-Sport driver is 31.5 down on Ogier's ultimate pace. "That was okay. I'm trying to change my driving on Tarmac. The feeling is completely bad but I'm trying to do something I'm not used to. This is a project I'm continuing with for a long time. This is just the beginning."
Fri 09:41 - SS1: Sordo –
The asphalt expert emerges as the closest challenger to Ogier so far. He's only 4.8s down on the rally leader. "Happy with the time. Really, really bad time with the brakes at the end and was understeering a lot. But the time is okay."
Fri 09:39 - SS1: Latvala –
The 2015 rally winner has had a nightmare start. He's 18.1s slower than Ogier. "Didn't have the best rhythm on the driving and started to improve at the end. I know I can do a better job. I was a bit cautious on this stage."

For myself, I love the idea of my idea being on the Wii or Wii U where you are the trainer in a 3D world, running around on your adventure, taking on gyms and such, striving to be the best. But here's the idea I'd love to see. Instead of stationery pokemon, just shooting out attacks, whenever you enter a battle, you take control of your Pokemon to where you can move about with them and attack and dodge freely rather than just sitting there and taking a hit, you can control the pokemon to move and dodge the attack. This style reminds me of Naruto: Clash of Ninja where you control the character in a 3D battle style where you can side step left and right. I just think this would seem like a great idea in a Pokemon game to bring it up to the next level :)

Increased levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (SIL-2R) have been reported in schizophrenia and are thought to indicate prior or current activation of T lymphocytes.1,2 Clozapine is an antipsychotic drug known for an associated high risk for agranulocytosis, and immunological processes have been suggested as possible pathophysiological factors (for an overview see the article by Alvir et al3). Recently, it has been reported that long-term clozapine treatment of highly variable duration (33 to 194 days) increased plasma SIL-2R levels.4 A single dose of the typical neuroleptic haloperidol, on the other hand, did not influence plasma SIL-2R levels of this cytokine receptor in healthy controls.5
We report herein on the time course of plasma SIL-2R levels evaluated prospectively during 6 weeks of treatment with clozapine. Ten patients (three women and seven men; mean±SD age, 31.8±5.5 years) who fulfilled DSM-III-R6 criteria for a schizophrenic disorder and who had

The mayor of Nago City, Okinawa, wants Americans to help him stop construction of a U.S. military base in his small city. He traveled to the U.S. last week to make his case.
Susumu Inamine was overwhelmingly re-elected to a second term as Nago's mayor this January because of his strong opposition to the U.S. plan to build a massive new base in this environmentally sensitive coastal city of 62,000 residents.
The base would replace the existing U.S. Futenma Marine Corps Air Station, which is located in a densely populated urban area in central Okinawa. The planned move is a response to long-standing pressure from local residents to close Futenma. Repeated polls show 74 percent or more of Okinawans oppose relocating the Futenma base within Okinawa. In fact, the overwhelming majority want all U.S. bases out of Okinawa. Nevertheless, both the U.S. and Japanese governments say they are forging ahead with the relocation plan.
Mayor Inamine is appealing to Americans to help stop it.
Visiting New York and Washington last week, Inamine met with government officials, congressional staffers and think tank policy experts, and spoke with interested Americans. He found some sympathetic ears, including at the libertarian Cato Institute, Inamine said. However "the reaction of U.S. officials was pretty tough," he said in a phone interview. "But we can still persuade." The mayor spoke in Japanese, with English provided by a translator.
"Americans should know that local residents are not welcoming the base," Mayor Inamine said. "U.S. residents should consider the huge budgetary burden and environmental impact on the local community."
Inamine says he intends to use his rights as mayor to block the construction of the base. Japanese law stipulates the rights of local municipalities, he noted. "According to this, I have the right" to stop the construction. In order to use roads, piers and other public facilities, he said, "they have to get my approval. I will exercise my right as mayor." He said residents are planning to create "a line of boats on the sea" in the Henoko area to demonstrate their opposition to the project.
The U.S. currently has some 85 military bases and installations in Japan, with about 50,000 military personnel, plus thousands of civilian Pentagon employees and dependents. The island of Okinawa, at the southern tip of Japan, is about one-third the size of Rhode Island. It constitutes only 0.6 percent of Japan's land area, but contains more than 30 U.S. bases, taking up 20 percent of its land.
After more than 20 years of U.S. occupation following World War II, Okinawa reverted back to Japanese control in 1972, but, said Mayor Inamine, "for Okinawan people the situation has not changed."
The state-of-the-art Futenma replacement base, part of the Obama administration's "Asia pivot," is tied to Japan's current national and foreign policy, Inamine said. He noted that the Japanese government, which backs the U.S. presence, is trying to expand the re-militarization of its own "self-defense" forces.
The new base "is pushed strongly by the [Japanese] government against the wishes of the people," he said. "Okinawans are not only controlled by U.S. military forces, they are also unfairly treated by the Japanese government. People strongly feel that Okinawa is being colonized by Japan."
Residents have been actively organizing for years to get U.S. bases closed, either relocated to elsewhere in Japan or out of Japan entirely.
Okinawans are upset about crimes committed by U.S. service members, including rapes. Some 5,600 criminal charges have been brought by Okinawans against U.S. military personnel since 1972. They are also angry about noise pollution from military aircraft, firing ranges and other base activity, and about environmental harm. Earlier this year, U.S. military officials admitted that they had covered up massive PCB contamination at the U.S. Kadena Air Base since the 1980s. A furor also erupted among both U.S. service members and Okinawans over last year's unearthing of 83 barrels containing dioxins and other toxic chemicals, including barrels labeled Dow Chemical, the manufacturer of Agent Orange, on land formerly part of the Kadena base that is now the Okinawa City soccer field.
The new base is slated to be constructed in the small seaside community of Henoko, part of Nago City, with runways built on an enormous landfill dumped into scenic Oura Bay. Oura Bay is home to rare types of coral and endangered species such as the dugong, a type of manatee. Relocation of the Futenma base to Henoko, Inamine says, "means destruction of this global treasure." It is not just a local issue but also "very important in our global village," he said.
Thus, the "dire situation in Nago City" should be of concern to environmental groups and civil society internationally, the mayor said.
He noted carefully, "I am not against the entire U.S. armed forces in Japan. I am opposed to construction of this base."
Inamine, 68, is described as non-political. He was a city administrator for 30 years before being elected mayor in 2010. In his work, he said, "I always emphasized dialogue with the community." He feels his current role is a continuation of that work.
"Whatever we do here is a legacy for future generations," he said. "I would like to leave something for the future. The new base is supposed to last 100 years. We have already suffered 60-plus years [from the impact of U.S. bases]. If we leave this over another 100 years, it's a negative heritage for our children."
"Please, please spread what Okinawa people are feeling," he concluded.

The number of reported cases of infantile perianal eruption has been increasing. However, infantile pyramidal protrusion located in the midline anterior to the anus has apparently been reported mainly as acrochordons or skinfolds.
Fifteen infants (14 girls and 1 boy) had a pyramidal protrusion located only in the midline anterior to the anus. Histological examination revealed acanthosis in the epidermis, marked edema in the upper dermis, and mild infiltrates in the dermis. The patients had been brought to the hospital because of swelling of the protrusion. However, all protrusions showed reduction without any treatment.
Infantile pyramidal protrusion located only in the midline anterior to the anus should be distinguished from acrochordons or skinfolds based on the characteristic clinical features.Arch Dermatol. 1996;132:1481-1484

Jennifer Lawrence to Have Love Affair in 'The Ends of the Earth'
After losing a role in "Lie Down in Darkness" from Kristen Stewart, Jennifer Lawrence has now secured another leading lady role in "The Ends of the Earth". According to Variety, the "Winter's Bone" actress is set to topline the romantic drama to be acquired by The Weinstein Company.
The drama itself revolves around the lives of oil baron Ernest and his adopted daughter Lydie Marland. Written by "Argo" scribe Chris Terrino, the story centers on the love affair between Ernest and Lydie which later destroys the business they have built together. Jennifer is cast as Lydie, who is described as an educated yet stubborn woman.
Being adopted by Ernest and his wife Virginia, Lydie later ends up becoming Ernest's wife following their affair. She urges the oil baron to raise workers' wages and give them easy access to medical care. She also gets the nickname "princess of the prairies" for her actions.
"The End of the Earth" is expected to begin the production in the summer of 2013. While it still hasn't found a director, the producing duty will be tackled by Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal and Steve Tisch.
Jennifer will be seen in a number of high-profile movies in addition to this romantic drama. She will reprise her notable roles as Katniss Everdeen in "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire", and Mystique in "X-Men: Days of Future Past". She will also appear in David O. Russell's dramedy "Silver Linings Playbook" and Susanne Bier's thriller "Serena", which both also star Bradley Cooper.
