Club together (Leeds Beckett University UG prospectus, 2016)

1/24/2016

Being in a society means more than wearing a special ring and knowing the secret handshake. At Leeds Beckett, it means sharing your interests with like-minded people, making friends, trying new things or getting involved in something you love.

You can join dozens of different student-run societies, and you can even help with the running of one if you fancy – that’s more colour to add to your CV.

Being part of a society is a great way of developing skills, practising hobbies, expanding your social circles, and most importantly, having some fun!

If none of our societies are your cup of tea, the Students’ Union offers advice and a handy toolkit so you can set up your own!
For the full rundown of societies you can be a part of, check out the Students’ Union web page at leedsbeckettsu.co.uk

Be a good sport
Whether you’re fiercely competitive and looking to fill your trophy cabinet or just want to have fun and meet new people, we offer sports clubs to suit all tastes and abilities.

You might want to pick up old favourites such as football or hockey, or you could try something a bit more niche, like lacrosse, cheerleading or, should you literally want to go off-piste, snowboarding. It’s all good.

We’re big into sport here at Leeds Beckett. Olympic triathlon champion Alistair Brownlee graduated from our University with an MSc in Finance in 2013 and still trains with us. 1,500m Commonwealth Games silver medallist Laura Weightman and World Cup footballers Lucy Bronze and Jade Moore are also graduates of our University. Even if you’re a long way from a podium finish, you can still benefit from all the activities we have on offer – our excellent facilities and sports-related opportunities are open to everyone to help you keep fit, have fun and expand your social circles.

Trucks, lies and videotape (Downstream, 2015)

2/25/2015

0 Comments

Published in Downstream magazine

Crash for cash scams and fraudulent insurance claims are the bane of any law-abiding motorist. Are dashcams our best defence in the courts?

On a busy stretch of a motorway in Kazakhstan, conditions are poor – rain beats down on a very slippery highway as crosswinds unsettle the vehicles precariously trying to negotiate their way through. Suddenly, a tanker full of petroleum loses control, jack-knifing into the oncoming lane - its cabin is struck by another HGV passing opposite and its engine bursts into flames, engulfing both in a blazing inferno.

This is just one of the many incidents captured by dashcams – specifically constructed video cameras for use on the road, mounted in the vehicle’s interior. Most of them are programmed to simply turn on and start recording when the engine is started, saving footage to a built-in memory on a continuous loop, so there’s no chance of accidents being missed. Prices for them range from £20 to around £200.

Thanks to their surge in popularity, footage capturing reckless driving, terrifying vehicular accidents and even some attempted fraudulent crash-staging have been caught on camera and can be found all over YouTube and the web.

Besides being a magnet for those with a taste of literal ‘car-crash television’, the devices are quickly gaining attention for their usefulness on the road and in legal cases. They have the ability to help establish the root cause of accidents and offer an unbiased witness perspective which doesn’t degrade over time and isn’t open to interpretation and suggestion, where once it was one road user’s word against another.

In particular, Russian nationals swear by dashcams – perhaps due in part to the country’s high incidence of traffic-related injuries and deaths. According to 2012 World Health Organisation statistics, 18.6 people out of every 100,000 are killed on Russian roads every year, compared to just 3.5 out of every 100,000 in the UK.

However, some countries including Austria and Germany have gone so far as to ban them entirely, citing them as an invasion of privacy, while other nations allow them but do not permit sound recording.

Crash for cash
But while privacy is a concern, the rise of ‘crash for cash scams’ in this country is a viciously rising threat. These stings usually involve drivers intentionally crashing into each other, or more worryingly, braking heavily in front of an innocent road user’s vehicle, causing them to crash into the back of them.

According to the Freight Transport Association (FTA), such ‘cash for crash’ incidents have increased by 50% over the past year, with as many as 865 dishonest motor insurance claims being submitted every week, to the tune of £10.4m. The FTA is now encouraging freight operators to take measures to protect themselves and their businesses, especially as the abundance of commercial vehicles and HGV drivers makes them ‘easy prey’ by crooks.

"Regretfully it is becoming more essential for freight operators to rely on security equipment and devices to defend their position in court, and ensure security of their drivers,” said Don Armour, FTA's Manager of Fleet Information. “These ‘crash for cash’ incidents are yet another obstacle for professional drivers to contend with in their day-to-day work, but security equipment is another tool in their armoury to combat this sort of criminality.”

Whiplash
In another motorway scene in the UK, a motorist in a MPV brakes suddenly behind heavy congested traffic on the M25 and veers across three lanes into the slip road. A HGV driver leaving the highway slams on the brake but still crashes into the back of the car. The four occupants of the MPV claimed the collision was the driver’s fault, and filed four whiplash claims totalling £75,000.

However, thanks to the vehicle’s in-cab camera system, the haulage company involved was able to show that the driver of the people carrier reacted too slowly to the congestion on the motorway, and deliberately drove into the path of the HGV. Pointing this out to the claimants, the claim was subsequently dropped without having to involve the police and the blameless truck driver’s reputation was untarnished.

It has been estimated that 70% of road accident personal injury claims are for whiplash in the UK, compared to 47% in Germany, 32% in Spain and only 3% in France, earning the UK the unwanted reputation as whiplash capital of Europe, according to the Association of British Insurers. The organisation also claims that whiplash claims alone add £90 a year to the average motor insurance premium.

"Our cameras protect against cash-for-crash, staged accidents and also protect against false or exaggerated whiplash claims,” says Nick Plowman, director of SmartWitness. "The evidence from our cameras, which is court admissible, overcomes conflicting reports of actual events and lack of witnesses.”

Lower premiums
Dashcams are an investment that is actually proving to be a no-brainer, thanks to reduced premiums (of up to 20%) from insurance companies that are offered to firms who agree to install them within their fleet.

Some dashcam systems are able to go even further by helping with the evidence submitting process. SmartWitness is a system that enables operators to submit a full report to insurers detailing exact location, vehicle speed, deceleration, road conditions, as well as video footage of the accident, all within two hours.

"Speed is of the essence when it comes to dealing with insurance claims,” says Nick Plowman. "You cannot wait a day or two to post information: insurance companies need data immediately to stop escalation of claims in the event of an accident where it’s your fault. That instantly eliminates spurious car hire, injury and repair claims.”

Eyes everywhere
Advanced dashcam systems can also look into driver behaviour – with the help of onboard sensors and accelerometers, it can determine not only global positioning and speeds, but also how harshly brakes are applied and how corners are negotiated. With the knowledge that the driver’s telematics are being monitored, they should hopefully improve their own driving etiquette and reduce the likelihood of accidents. How this interjects into driver privacy and surveillance might be an argument for another time however.

With crash for cash scams seemingly on the up and up, companies have launched a great counterattack in the form of dashcams. Not only are they easy to use and install, they are very reasonably priced and can actually lower a fleet’s insurance premiums. These systems provide an unbiased level of protection against the threat of fraudulent insurance claims, where the driver of a vehicle that shunts into the back of another is usually blamed.

Don Armour concluded: “FTA is recommending to its members that they should be aware of the ‘crash for cash’ opportunists, and that they must take all measures possible to avoid being scammed. They should inform their drivers of these sorts of crime, take measures to avoid these type of incidents and install security equipment, including forward facing cameras, where appropriate.”

Bitcoin: the unregulated currency (International General Counsel, January 2015)

1/25/2015

0 Comments

Somewhere buried in a landfill rubbish site in Newport, Wales, is a computer hard drive that was worth more than £4 million in December last year.

James Howells was cleaning out his desk last summer and discarded the unused drive, originally from a broken laptop. Held in the device’s storage was a digital wallet containing 7,500 bitcoins.

Howells had tasked his computer with ‘mining’ the digital currency in 2009 – back then the coins were worthless, but by the time he threw them out they were valued at £500,000 – he only realised his mistake months later in November when news reports revealed that a single bitcoin had surpassed the US$1,000 mark. Just three days later, it hit a peak of US$1,209.

More attentive traders have already made millions from the virtual currency in the last few months when its value multiplied nearly six-fold in just over a month, despite fluctuating around the $50-100 region for the vast majority of 2013.

Bitcoin is an electronic peer-to-peer currency which is created and held digitally, with no regulation and no centralisation. Each takes the form of a unique registry number, which is created by a computer set to run software which solves mathematical problems, known as mining. They are widely-regarded as the first of a form of crypto-currency, and they have the banks running scared.

The concept of Bitcoin as a digitally-minted currency was proposed in a 2008 paper by a software developer whose only pseudonym is Satoshi Nakamoto. Many argue the currency’s conception was a group effort, seeing as it takes an understanding of cryptology, economics and computer programming to implement. Nevertheless, one year later the Bitcoin open source code and software was released. It’s rumoured that Nakamoto is in possession of around one million bitcoins – in December last year they were valued at US$1.1 billion.

Like tokens, they work by the idea of perceived value, as long as people keep using them, and that there are a finite number of them in circulation. Their value is determined by their usage and demand: the more they are used, the more valuable they become. Each denomination is assigned to a user’s digital wallet, each with a specific address – when a transfer is made, the address is replaced with the new recipient’s details, much like the title or deeds to a property.

To preserve the balance of worth and popularity, the crypto-currency has algorithms which increase the complexity of the mathematical problems to solve before a bitcoin can be mined. A few years ago a home computer would have been sufficient to do the job – then it was discovered that jury-rigged graphics cards were adept in processing the computations. However current complexities now mean that many home computers would consume more in electricity rates than what one would be worth.

In any gold rush, it’s the guy selling the spades and pickaxes that turn the most reliable profits. Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) mining machines have now hit the market, selling for thousands and manufactured for the sole purpose of excavating the currency.

Then again, bitcoins are clearly not as tangible or intrinsic as gold – while early adopters and shrewd prospectors have made fortunes already, their significance and potential role in big business is just another facet of technology that many are struggling to get their heads around.

The initial incentive is the profit boost from the negligible transaction fees, as opposed to the 2-3% levied by debit and credit card companies. It could also disrupt global money transfers – for a fraction of the usual fees, users can swiftly move money anywhere in the world, unencumbered by international borders, complex verification processes, bank holidays and imposed limits. Wiring one million US dollars in Bitcoins aboard would cost approximately five US cents in fees and be verified in around 20 minutes.

Early moves by retailers to adopt them as a payment system have been perceived as more of a fashionable PR move. In November, Richard Branson announced that the currency would be accepted by Virgin Galactic for space flights, while lingerie-seller Victoria’s Secret and online game company Zynga have also recently embraced the currency.

Though merchants are continuing to come round to Bitcoin, the rate of adoption is still slow among big business in the US: stringent Financial Crimes Enforcement Network rulings, 50 state jurisdictions and a lack of federal oversight cloud the push towards making it legal tender. However, fact-finding hearings have recently taken place at New York’s Department of Financial Services, which may set the precedent for state by state regulation in the US. If the currency is given the nod of approval at Wall Street – a global economic arena – it could mark the outset of a massive wave of acceptance and usage.

And yet, it’s a currency that has been mired in controversy, not least because of its unregulated and decentralised nature – there’s no organisation to turn to if you’ve been the victim of a fraudulent transaction for example, and no guarantee on how secure the open source code is. More worryingly, the anonymity of transactions raises issues with the use of fronting for criminal activities such as money laundering. It became the default payment system used on Silk Road, the online underground black market. Most recently, the US has arrested operators of two exchanges for the virtual currency, on suspicion of violation of the US Bank Secrecy Act in connection with money laundering, weakening both its position and value.

Its volatility is also a major turn-off for businesses – what firm wants to post a profit report and have estimates slashed only days later if the price of Bitcoins drop as quickly as it can? Price differentials also exist between countries, sometimes by up to 10%. At the present, it poses simply too much risk even for the blue-chips despite its benefits.

Even so, its main driver at this point is people. As a disruptive and destabilising device, Bitcoin is a dream come true for libertarians, who view every transaction as a digital two-fingers towards the establishment. Every micro transaction circumvents a need for traditional roles filled by the centralised monetary institutions, which in turn upsets the leaders that bailed them out.

“The Bitcoin currency and system operate in such a manner that allows individuals to bypass banks and obfuscate the origin or destination of the currency via a process called mixing,” says Javier Marti, MD of Bitcoin Global Investments. “This is a problem for governments because Bitcoin comes into the picture at a time when the last thing governments want are ways for people to evade taxes...any kind of taxes. The mere concept of a currency/protocol/commodity that acts as ‘digital money’, working across borders with the potential to greatly disrupt whole industries including finance, banking, the legal profession and many others is way too complicated for individuals in power to legislate effectively on.”

Remember the outrage of the Cypriot people in 2013 when their government announced a haircut seizure of uninsured deposits, and refused transfer requests to move money off the island? Bitcoin could theoretically remove the possibility. Start-ups and entrepreneurs with limited cash flow could also stand to hugely benefit: no more making an appointment with the bank manager and asking for a loan, when instead you could arrange a peer-to-peer loan under mutually agreed terms.

As interest and awareness of Bitcoin escalates from the bottom up, regulators will have little choice but to get into the game and push for some form of transparency and compliance in regards to domestic transactions. If the approval is given, this could bring the currency into the mainstream and help keep a leash on illegal transactions and trades.

Marti says: “This will be the year when the gloves come off and governments around the world finally understand the huge potential for disruption that Bitcoin offers and come down heavy on it, either by making it illegal, taxing Bitcoin exchanges out of business, or co-opting the idea by creating a nationalised version. It does not mean they would kill it, but would simply prevent it from developing properly in their country.”

Right now however, there is no clear future for Bitcoin as a viable currency on its own right, beyond its staggeringly liquid (yet potentially highly lucrative) value. Proponents argue that it has all the core parts in the traditional model of value – divisibility, fungibility and finite stock – all that’s needed is greater usage, oversight and trust.

Arguments against state that it’s nothing more than a weapon of tax evasion and money laundering, and that without a centralised regulatory body it could suddenly become worthless against its bricks and mortar counterparts. For big businesses dealing in established currency, the risk may pose to be too significant to justify dabbling in – for the moment.

In a post-recession environment where people are weary of NSA spying, toxic investments, banker bonuses and bailouts, Bitcoin is a tool for revolution, driving change in a unique way. Peer-to-peer forever changed the landscape of both the music and the movie industries in just a few short years – now it has its sights set on disrupting traditional currency. While not intended to replace its fiat brethren, it still has the potential to whip the old-guard of monetary institutions into action and get involved in some way or the other.

It’s performing a precarious balancing act so far, while the crowds are beginning to stop, look and throw down a few coins of their own – if Bitcoin gets governmental approval and traction in international business, experts say its dollar value could soar into the thousands, if not tens of thousands. The gold rush may be over, but the party is just starting.

Running the market (Coaching Edge, August 2014)

8/3/2014

Whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, local press, flyers, posters or press adverts, there’s no shortage of the ways in which you can spread the word about your sporting event. Unfortunately, anyone and everyone with a business knows this only too well, and on a daily basis we’re bombarded with an array of marketing messages online, on the streets, even at home waiting for us on the doormat.

With such a dizzying array of trades vying for the public’s attention – and the bewildering marketing options available to you – it can be tricky to advertise your own event on a shoestring budget, but this article will outline how you can gain the edge.

Understandably, after planning your activity’s schedule, setting training goals, organising transport and equipment, briefing assistant coaches and doing actual coaching, it’s easy to treat marketing like an afterthought. To make matters worse, there is no one-stop solution when it comes to reaching your local target audience on a limited budget; after all, who has a wallet thick enough to stump up for billboards and regional press adverts?

As Communications Officer for the Leeds Softball Association, it’s my job to promote and spread softball throughout Yorkshire on a thrifty budget. As a niche pursuit, we’re easily the go-to organisation for the sport in the region. However, if you’re involved in more popular games such as football or hockey, there may be several local and regional clubs fighting to recruit the same new blood you are.

It can seem really easy to get a few flyers printed out, stick a Wall post on Facebook and rely on general word of mouth to help promotion and garner interest. However, it’s important to maintain a friendly marketing presence, both online and in real-life, to really get your club’s name out there, and with some forward-planning and consistent campaigning, you can tailor your organisation into the leading local brand to enjoy your sport.

Print
Think print is dead? Think again: printed medium is a classic and it’s going nowhere. However, gone are the days when you can get results from a ten-minute job on a leaflet typed in Comic Sans with a fuzzy black and white photo. Contemporary posters and flyers are more visually-led to catch the eye amongst the myriad of other printed material on walls, with greater emphasis on working lettering into well-compositioned sports photography.

To make an attention-grabbing advert, you’ll need the right tools to help you craft one. Adobe InDesign is an advanced publishing and design program that’s relatively easy to pick up if you generally know your way around basic software like MS Publisher and PowerPoint. While full versions can set you back several hundred pounds, you can now download InDesign CS2 without the need for a serial number on the Adobe website.

Once installed, feel free to play around with the drop shadows, text effects and different fonts. It may seem a little daunting at first, but with a little patience and some trial and error, soon you’ll be crafting some wall-worthy creations.

Supermarkets are excellent venues to put posters up in – most large outlets have community noticeboards and plenty of foot traffic. Be aware however, that where some offer to put up notices for you at no cost, this doesn’t oblige them to do so immediately (or even at all), especially among the more laissez-faire of customer advisers. Best thing to do is to return back in a couple days to check if it’s actually been pinned up, preferably with a spare copy if it’s been mislaid somewhere.

Other venues you can put your posters up in are local community halls, leisure centres and shopping malls. Besides posters and flyers, you should also look around takeaways, libraries, pubs and cafes to see what local magazines are circulating. Some will allow you to place small classified adverts for free – although this writer is of the opinion that younger audiences shun free local magazines in favour of other media.

Digital
The online universe opens up a real bazaar of different marketing tools and opportunities. While it may seem a daunting place for a coach to advertise events in, it’s particularly useful once you get the hang of regular digital marketing, plus it offers a forum to house all your information in one easy to access place.

Website
Websites are the becoming the ultimate online business card, with many professionals adopting one to peddle their wares. Fortunately for the technophobic, it’s easier than ever to set up your own.

First you’ll need a web address. Try sites like GoDaddy.com or One.com to see which names are available – where possible you want something simple, easy to remember and relevant to your sport and location or club name. www.ManchesterFootballAcademy.com would be an ideal example.
Prices vary for domain registration, but most are around £15 per year. Next is your hosting, which saves your text and images on an online server ready to be accessed by a web user. Costs vary again, but are affordable and deals can be struck with combined domain registration and hosting.

Finally, you’ll need web design templates to help you build functionality. Many customisable and pre-built templates should come part and parcel with web-host packages – these are relatively straightforward to amend using their own design wizard. Most sites offer support when needed, but you should be able to create a modern-looking site without much handholding.

Remember to keep your website updated with news, events, training regimes, club philosophies and contact details.

Gumtree
It’s free and easy to place an advert on Gumtree, and placing adverts in your local site’s Sports Team or Community notices is one of the more reliable ways to get outside interest. Handily, there are a range of purchasable options such as making your advert more prominent in the listings or having them featured for a short amount of time.

When completing your advert, try and include some diverse pictures of your sport and some pre-written template text you can copy and paste in. Better yet, if you’re able to, upload a video introducing your sport and your organisation – this massively helps with providing a warm welcome to the more timid players out there, convincing them to give your club a try.

Facebook
Facebook is your main bread and butter when it comes to digital marketing. You should already have a Facebook Group or Page to act as a digital home for your club, containing training updates, news on special events and a forum for members to post queries. You should even try and include amusing pictures or videos from around the web (as long as they’re relevant), which will help with public engagement.

Creating regular Facebook Events for special sessions will help advertise your meetings and ensure your members don’t double-book themselves. You should also encourage current players to drag a friend along to these and share the event on their own Facebook Wall – help incentivise this by running promotions, such as offering free sessions for members that bring one or more new participants.
It’s particularly helpful to write short session previews on Events so attendees will know what to expect. Try to make people aware of any special beginner events you might be planning on running, so that rookies are more inclined to come along.

Twitter
Despite its casual appearance, Twitter is a massive online landscape with a lot of buzz around it – not just a magnet for One Directioners. See how its #hashtags and ‘@’ usernames have invaded many television programmes and print media.
Just like web domains, choose a username that’s simple and describes what and where your club is perfectly, though this time you are restricted to 15 characters. Treat your tweets just like public engagement – don’t just remind people of training sessions and special events in 140 characters – offer up regular training tips, motivational advice and the odd humorous link. Use hashtags when relevant, e.g. #leedssoftball – this brings up your account and tweets in relevant Twitter searches.

It’s also useful to side with a national organisation of your sport, or a bigger local account that can boost your Tweet views if you ask them nicely to retweet you.

For those planned sessions that get lucky enough to expect a huge turnout for – be wary and double-check the occupancy with your venue manager or groundsman: almost all will have a maximum number of people on or inside their premises for health and safety reasons. Encourage new attendees to RSVP or register their details so you get a solid grasp of how many people are anticipated to show.

Good marketing that will give you an edge is all about utilising visible campaigns, engaging content and maintaining a strong presence whether on the digital frontier or in real life. Remember to use these tips to keep your current members well-informed and up-to-date, as well as to ensure a healthy supply of fresh faces at your sessions and special events.
