How this CA quit his Big 4 job & against all odds built a thriving due diligence firm in the sandy shores of Goa
Written on 20th January, 2021
Updated on 5th January, 2022 11:12 AM
Hello, my name is Ashutosh Kharangate. I am a chartered accountant by profession.
I belong to the beautiful coastal land of Goa and in 2010, owing to a turn of events I returned to Goa and started a Due Diligence & Advisory Practice of my own.
Was it easy? Of course not. Goa was definitely not ready for the kind of services I wanted to provide but I persisted.
Today almost a decade later, Mangal Analytics and Research Consulting Pvt Ltd (MARC) - has grown to a team of 30 and a client size of 250 plus....making all the efforts worth it!
Here is my story.
From a dream to become a genetic engineer to a CA
While my father is a CA, at no point in time did I want to become a CA.
In those times, the 'breaking news' was of the first clone having been made. I was pretty fascinated by this and decided that I wanted to be a genetic engineer.
Fast forward, a few years later at a career guidance event I was convinced that CA is the best career option for me. Needless to say, my father was over the moon.
I enrolled for the CA course from ICAI (The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) and here started my CA journey.
I cleared my inter CA exam in the first attempt and created some sort of a record as I was the only student to have cleared among 231 students appearing in Goa.
To add to that I topped my college in B.Com and won many accolades.
(While I frankly believed I had no role to play in that, public perception of me being extraordinarily brilliant was created.)
Unfortunately, during my CA Final exams, I faced challenges and missed the first attempt.
Suddenly nobody seemed to be talking about me (to add, I weighed 131 kgs with a 44-inch waistline!)
The only thing which helped me during this phase was my self-confidence and I cleared in the next attempt – I was now a CA! This was in 2007.
Realizing Auditing is not for me and brushing with due diligence
During my CA articles, I realized traditional auditing and taxation weren't my things.
I loved finance and costing so I had decided to explore a career in finance.
I took up an opportunity with an amazing company in Goa by the name Kineco Pvt Ltd. It had global footprints.
Here I came across a process called 'due diligence'. (It's to ensure that the company being invested in does not have any major issues which could cause the investment to go down the drain.)
I loved the profile and soon realized that I would like to build a career in due diligence and advisory.
I did my research and discovered that the Big4 firms have the best Due Diligence practices. I decided to move to Mumbai - the financial capital of India.
Luckily, I was selected at PwC as an Associate – Due Diligence - Transaction Advisory Services.
This CA and ex-Big 4 Partner started his firm as a one-man army at 48 and today thriving with 120+employees
Bitten by the entrepreneurial bug
Pwc actually gave me my wings. I loved my role at PwC and the travel associated with it.
However, at the same time because it is a large organization there were certain rules and hierarchies to follow. I started slowly realizing that I liked doing things at my will.
Thoughts started crossing my mind of 'starting something of my own'.
On a personal front my parents especially my mom wanted me and my wife to be closer to them and return to Goa.
I promised her we will come back within a year.
Unfortunately, my mother passed away suddenly. It was shocking.
After the numbness had subsided a bit, I started thinking of the plans ahead. I realized it was time I return home.
I resigned from PwC.
Launching a Due Diligence Consulting firm in Goa
Now I had three options to start all over in Goa:
Join my father in his practice – I knew I didn't like that work and our working styles were different.
Work for a company in Goa and do general CA work – I didn't find it appealing cause of restriction of work profile.
Lastly, start something of my own - I was most drawn to this! But the big question was - What should I start with?
After brainstorming several ideas, I knew I loved my role at PwC and felt that I should try introducing 'Due Diligence services' in Goa.
Many of my CA friends laughed at the idea. They said - 'where is there a market in Goa for business advisory services? Let alone due diligence.'
On the contrary, I felt Goa was perfect for starting something of this kind.
I believed that Goa had several first-generation and second-generation entrepreneurs who had also tremendous potential to grow. They needed good advice on profitability and business strategy.
I felt I had the exposure and could do justice.
On 1st August 2010, I launched MARC - Mangal Analytics and Research Consulting Pvt Ltd (named after my dear mother, Mangal).
This Cost Accountant qualified as a CA at 34 and later quit his job as Head of Finance to build a thriving CA practice at 42.
First clients
Now that I had decided to start in a market that apparently had no demand and surely no supply of advisory services, the first thought was to visit clients whom I knew.
I visited a reputed doctor, the owner of a well-known hospital chain who I had connected with while at PwC, and the other the MD of Kineco who I had worked earlier.
I thought it would be sensible to offer my core strengths to start with as both of them were involved in some M&A transactions.
Both the gentleman was kind enough to offer me an opportunity. One of them offered me a much smaller amount and that too once I proved myself.
While it did hurt a bit, I took it up. Nevertheless, it gave me some great learnings, also was happy I was earning in the first month itself.
There has been no turning back since!
Growing the business and introducing a new service line
The first year I worked out of client locations. The business was growing by word of mouth.
For the first 2 years, it was surprising but no local trusted us - All our clients were non-Goans.
I gave my best and knew I had to prove myself.
In 2013, we were called by the MD of an Italian MNC. He wanted to explore the possibility of bringing gynaec and derma products into India. It was more of market research and project feasibility.
Frankly, we had never done an assignment like that before. But I took it up as a challenge.
I told him - Sir, let me deliver then you can decide and pay. We agreed on a sum. It was the highest fee I had ever charged!
We put in real effort.
When we submitted it 3 months later, he was pleased. I was almost in tears. This gave us tremendous confidence that we could deliver to a well-informed and aware client.
Also, it gave us a new service offering which has given us a niche today.
This CA from a semi-rural area in South Africa quit his well-paying job and built a thriving 250+ member practice: the story of Desmond Msomi
Challenges and roadblocks
When we started, Goa was not ready for what we offered due to a lack of awareness!
I had to explain to them that their P&L and balance sheets are not meant only to file returns. It can be actually used to draw meaningful conclusions about their performance.
Several times we were required to perform, show results, and later get paid. I took it up.
Many times we would not even get paid! It was heartbreaking but good learning.
The other aspect was I realized within my first year that only due diligence will not take me far.
So we broke down due diligence into something we call 'profitability analyses'. Here we analyzed businesses on revenue leakages, where profitability could be improved, how processes could be better. This took off!
I believe the toughest phase for me was when our initial 3 key team members whom I had thought will be with me through the journey resigned in quick succession.
It surely took a lot out of me. But I also learn from the process that 'I shall be the last man standing'.
Timeline of my journey
This year was more about exploring the market and understanding the same.
We offered due diligence and transaction advisory services
We had only 2 clients this year.
I worked from home.
I took up my first office of 200 sq ft.
Got my first employee at the end of 2011 but by 2012 end the number increased to 5.
Clients also increased to about 10.
We had won the trust of Goan entrepreneurs and in addition, done some credible work in the opportunities we got with MNC clients.
Added new line of services: Market research and project feasibility and profitability analyses. This year also marks the addition of Astra Metals Pvt Ltd as a client.
Built some great relationships, especially the MD Mr. Satish Shinde. He has been a father figure since. He provides hope that ethics need not be compromised in the journey of being successful.
These were growth years.
Moved to a 600 sq ft office. Staff strength increased to 12.
Client size increased to 50.
In addition, we entered into an MoU with a 30-year-old European firm to enable internationalization for Indian businesses. This was a great boost.
MAS was rebranded as MARC. We formed a private limited company.
Also moved to an 800 sq ft office.
Staff strength also grew to 20 while the client base crossed 100.
Added several services including MIS, SOP, HR consulting, accounts outsourcing etc.
Added another 200 sq ft of office space in the same building to reach an office space of 1000 sq ft.
The client base went past 150.
Moved to a PAN India client base.
We formed associations with PAN India consultants, including some in the top 10 to be their partners towards due diligence and market research.
We moved into a 2000 sq ft office.
Team size increased to 30. We connected with international consultants and investors to help them with backend analytics and research support.
We forged some great relationships in this process. The client base crossed 250 in this process.
For a long time, I wanted to have MARC offices across the country. But the excuses were everything from the inability to travel, to focus on the Goa office, etc.
However, lockdown provided an opportunity to connect with like-minded aspiring fellows across the country.
Within 6 months we opened 6 offices of MARC across the country.
While team size remained at 30 we added 7 partners to the core team.
I believe the most important thing in any entrepreneurial journey is to be on your toes and to have wonderful client relationships.
I feel scaling has been a bigger challenge than starting, so if you have an idea START.
Be innovative and extremely flexible. Entrepreneurship is funny so 'Perseverance is key'.
You have an extremely high one day to a terrible low the next day. It is important to face each day.
One logic I follow is 'sleep off a bad day' (not literally of course!). The next day shall be great.

TEF and EA happen while a baby is growing during pregnancy. Most often, TEF and EA happen together. But sometimes a child has 1 condition and not the other. Each name refers to a specific problem.
Doctors are not sure what causes these rare problems. They are present when a child is born (congenital). TEF and EA are not thought to be passed from parent to child (inherited).
The word fistula (FIS-chu-luh) means "abnormal connection." Tracheoesophageal (TRAY-kee-oh-ee-SAH-fuh-JEE-ul) fistula (TEF) happens when a baby's windpipe (trachea) and food tube (esophagus) are connected.
Food and saliva can get into the trachea and lungs through this channel. This can make a child cough or choke and lead to lung infections such as pneumonia.
Esophageal atresia (EA) happens when the tube that leads from the mouth to the stomach (esophagus) does not form all the way before birth. The tube leading down from the mouth and the tube leading up from the stomach do not meet. The condition is pronounced ee-SAH-fuh-JEE-ul uh-TREE-zhuh.
A baby with EA cannot feed by mouth because there is no way for food and liquid to travel from their mouth to their stomach.
TEF/EA can take several forms. In the most common form, the upper part of the food tube (esophagus) has a closed end and the lower part connects to the windpipe (trachea). Most children with TEF/EA have this form. It is called esophageal atresia with distal tracheoesophageal fistula.
Seattle Children's has the only team in the region with expertise in all the areas that babies with TEF/EA may need. Sometimes care starts before birth, if an ultrasound during pregnancy suggests your baby has TEF/EA.
If you would like an appointment, ask your pregnancy care provider to refer you to our Prenatal Diagnosis and Treatment Program. If you would like more information or have a referral, call 206-987-5629 to make an appointment. Providers, see how to refer a patient.
At Seattle Children's we care for 10 to 15 new patients with these rare conditions each year. We follow many other children long-term. Doctors from several states refer babies with TEF/EA to us.
If doctors suspect TEF/EA during pregnancy, the team at our Prenatal Diagnosis and Treatment team can do a detailed assessment. We help you prepare for what lies ahead.
We work with your birth hospital to arrange the special care your baby will need at birth and as they travel by ambulance to Seattle Children's soon after they are born.
Our transport team of physicians, nurses and respiratory therapists are national leaders in safely moving fragile babies.
Our surgery team is very experienced in performing procedures to repair TEF/EA. More cases mean greater skill and better outcomes.
Your baby needs care designed just for them. Babies differ from adults in how they react to illness, pain and surgery. That's why our surgeons are all board certified in pediatric surgery.
Along with a surgeon, your baby's team will include experts in newborn care (neonatology), the digestive system (gastroenterology), airway problems (otolaryngology), pain control (anesthesiology), nutrition and lactation support. We work together and with you to meet your baby's needs.
Our experts focus on how today's treatment will affect your child as they develop and become an adult. We base treatment plans on years of experience and the newest research on what works best for children.
As your child grows, they will get care as needed from experts from surgery, gastroenterology and our Aerodigestive Program, which focuses on problems that affect both breathing and swallowing.
Some babies with TEF/EA have other health problems at birth. Seattle Children's ranks among the best in all 10 pediatric specialties rated by U.S. News & World Report in 2018. We are the only hospital in the Northwest to do so.
Having a baby born with a serious medical problem can be scary. At Seattle Children's, you have a full team behind you before, during and after surgery. We work together to meet all your child's health needs.
Our doctors, nurses, child life specialists and social workers help your family through the challenges of TEF and EA. We connect you to community resources and support groups.
We work with many children and families from around the Northwest and beyond. We can help with financial counseling, schooling for children in the family, housing, transportation, interpreter services and spiritual care. Learn about our services for patients and families.
Seattle Children's leads research in the lab and in the clinic to improve treatment and quality of life for children born with problems like TEF/EA.
Our newborn specialists are leaders in research to improve outcomes for babies born very early or with complex problems. See Pushing Limits, Saving Lives.
We work to find the safest, best ways to reduce stress in the NICU and to ease pain. Learn more about Seattle Children's neonatology research.
Many children born with TEF/EA have feeding problems and gastroesophageal reflux (GER). Our research helps parents and doctors decide which treatment is best.
Symptoms of TEF/EA: Breathing problems and coughing or choking when your baby tries to swallow. The symptoms show up right after birth.
Symptoms of TEF only: Severe coughing or choking when your baby tries to swallow, usually after feeding. Some babies may have trouble breathing while feeding. If your baby has TEF alone, it may be weeks or months after birth before TEF is diagnosed as the cause of symptoms.
Symptoms of EA only: Your baby is not swallowing their saliva, is drooling a lot or has foamy mucus in their mouth or nose. Most often, EA alone is diagnosed before birth or right after birth.
Sometimes doctors can diagnose TEF/EA before your baby is born based on the results of a prenatal ultrasound. Our Prenatal Diagnosis and Treatment Program can help your family and your obstetricians get ready for the birth and plan your baby's care.
If doctors suspect your newborn has TEF/EA, they try to pass a tube from your baby's nose or mouth into their stomach. The tube is called a nasogastric tube or NG tube.
If a baby has EA, the NG tube hits a blocked end, often in the mid-chest. Doctors can see this blockage on an X-ray. Often that is the only diagnostic test needed. Your baby would be moved from their birth hospital to Seattle Children's right away.
If a child also has TEF, an X-ray will show gas in the baby's stomach. Because the esophagus has not formed properly in EA, the only way gas can get into the stomach is through an abnormal connection between the windpipe and esophagus. Babies who have only EA do not show gas in their stomach.
To find TEF without EA, doctors sometimes use a test called an esophagram. First, your child swallows a liquid (gastrograffin or barium). The liquid helps the tube from the mouth to the stomach (esophagus) show up on X-rays.
The doctor may take a series of X-rays to look at the esophagus, stomach and the first part of the small bowel. First, we give your child a contrast liquid that shows up on X-ray. This test is called an upper GI (gastrointestinal) series (PDF).
If your baby has any of these problems, the doctor will explain other tests or treatment they need.
Babies with EA, with or without TEF, will have some type of surgery soon after they are born. Surgery for TEF alone is done soon after it is diagnosed, but this can take several months.
The type of surgery depends on your baby's condition. In many cases, surgeons correct the problem with 1 surgery. Other times, doctors need to correct it in stages. Your baby's surgeon will talk with you about the best option for your child.
Our transport team is very experienced in safely moving fragile babies to Seattle Children's from their birth hospital. In our Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), we will give your baby the highest level of care.
We carefully assess your child to decide the best treatment for them. This includes any breathing support they need and the timing of surgery.
About one-third of children born with TEF, EA or TEF/EA are born early. This may happen because babies with EA cannot swallow normal amounts of amniotic fluid and it builds up inside the mother's womb. Premature babies may need breathing support and treatment for other health problems at birth.
Give your baby fluids through an intravenous (IV) line into their vein.
Place a tube through your baby's nose into their esophageal pouch. The tube helps keep air and fluid out of the pouch so your baby is less likely to breathe spit into their lungs.
Do an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram). This helps ensure the surgery can be done as safely as possible.
Give your child medicine to make them sleep without pain during the surgery (general anesthesia). Our doctors are board certified in pediatric anesthesiology, with extra years of training in how to give pain medicine to babies and children safely.
If the ends of the esophagus are close enough to each other, the surgeon will join them with stitches.
Place a feeding tube in your child's stomach. This is called a gastrostomy (pronounced gas-STRAH-stuh-mee).
Repair your baby's esophagus later.
Talk with you about the options.
If your baby has EA but not TEF, the 2 ends of the esophagus are too far apart to sew together right away. In this case, your baby will need surgery to place a feeding tube through their belly wall. This is called a gastrostomy. It is how your baby will get nutrition until they have surgery to fix their esophagus.
Doctors will wait until your baby grows larger before doing the surgery to sew the esophagus together. This gives the esophagus time to grow so the 2 ends may get closer together.
Sometimes, the 2 ends stay far apart. There are different ways to repair or even replace the esophagus. Your surgeon will talk with you about these options.
Your baby receives nutrients through this tube, and medicine if needed.
We will teach you how to take care of the tube and how to feed your child through it.
Your surgeon will take out the G tube after your baby can eat by mouth. Some babies will need the G tube for several months or even longer. This is because they need to learn to swallow after esophagus repair.
After surgery for TEF/EA or EA, your baby will likely need a machine to help them breathe (ventilator). It may be a few days to a week or more before your baby can breathe well on their own. If your baby had surgery for TEF alone, they will only need a breathing machine during surgery.
About a week after your baby's surgery, we will do an imaging study to check the esophagus repair for leaks. This is called an esophagram. If there is no leak, your baby may be able to start feeding by mouth.
Most babies start feeding slowly. Your baby may not be able to get all their nutrition by mouth for several days or weeks. Some babies need extra feedings from a tube passed through their nose and into their stomach. This is called a nasogastric tube or NG tube. Babies who had a gastrostomy tube placed early in life will keep using that until they can take all their feedings by mouth.
How long your child will need some or all of their nutrition by tube depends on how well they swallow and if they have problems with stomach contents flowing backwards into the esophagus. This is called gastroesophageal reflux (GER). With a feeding tube, your baby can still feed by mouth if they are able and, as needed, get breast milk or formula through the feeding tube.
Our nurses and lactation specialists will do all that we can to support you in giving your baby breast milk. To keep your milk flowing and to build a milk supply for your baby, we help you with breast pumping and storing your milk. When your baby is ready, our nurses and feeding therapists help with the transition to feeding by bottle or breast.
Our nutritionists keep a careful watch on your baby to be sure they are growing well. Our feeding therapists help your child learn to feed by mouth.
The hospital stay for babies with TEF and EA varies. If your baby is healthy and the repair is simple, they will likely stay for 2 weeks or a little longer.
They have other health problems.
They have EA but not TEF.
Doctors have to wait to do surgery.
Your baby will be ready to go home when they are breathing well and have a feeding plan to help them gain weight.
Our nurses will help set up any supplies and equipment you need. You will have plenty of time to practice all your baby's care before going home.
Your baby is breathing well.
Your child is feeding, gaining weight and growing well.
There are no other health problems.
Experts in our Surgery, Gastroenterology, Nutrition and Aerodigestive programs will give your child follow-up care they need. Our Aerodigestive Program cares for children with ongoing airway and feeding problems. Children who had EA/TEF repaired at Seattle Children's and at other hospitals come to us for follow-up care.
We continue to keep a watch on your child's health until they reach college age.
We help with any feeding problems. As children with TEF/EA grow, they may need to eat more slowly and chew more than people who did not have TEF/EA.
The most common long-term problem for babies with TEF/EA is stomach contents flowing backwards into the esophagus. This is called gastroesophageal reflux (GER). We often can treat this with medicine. Rarely, surgery is needed.
Children with TEF/EA might get more colds and other respiratory illnesses than other children.
If you would like an appointment, ask your pregnancy care provider to refer you to our Prenatal Diagnosis and Treatment Program. If you would like more information or have a referral, call 206-987-5629 to schedule an appointment.

Biographical Sketches
James Smith, a lawyer who had emigrated from Ireland to the Colonies, represented the Pennsylvania back-country in Revolutionary conventions and the Continental Congress. He also helped draft the Pennsylvania constitution.
Smith, the second son in a large family, was born in northern Ireland about 1719. When he was around 10 years old, his father emigrated to America and settled on acreage west of the Susquehanna River in York County, Pa. James studied surveying and classical languages at Rev. Francis Alison's academy in New London, Pa., and then read law in the office of his elder brother at Lancaster. He was admitted to the bar in 1745 and moved westward to the Shippensburg vicinity in Cumberland County. A lack of clients and surveying work caused him about 1750 to relocate eastward to York, where he married a decade later. Although he was the only lawyer in town until 1769, he experienced difficulty in recruiting clients. Probably for this reason, during the years 1771-78 he undertook iron manufacturing, but the venture failed and he lost £5,000.
Smith early emerged as a local Whig leader. In 1774, at a provincial convention in Philadelphia, he supported nonimportation measures and advocated an intercolonial congress. That same year, at York he raised a militia company, in which he served as captain and later honorary colonel. At two provincial meetings in 1775-76, he championed the interests of the western counties and helped formulate resolutions calling for independence, the strengthening of defenses, and establishment of a new provincial government. During the latter year, he sat on the drafting committee in the State constitutional convention. Elected to Congress (1776-78) on July 20, 1776, after the vote on independence had been taken, he arrived in Philadelphia in time to sign the Declaration. Among his colleagues he gained a reputation as a wit, conversationalist, and eccentric.
During the period 1779-82 Smith held various State offices: one-term legislator, judge of the Pennsylvania high court of errors and appeals, brigadier general in the militia, and State counselor during the Wyoming Valley land dispute between Pennsylvania and Connecticut. In 1785 he turned down reelection to Congress because of his age. His major activity prior to his retirement in 1801 was the practice of law. Smith died at about the age of 87 in 1806 at York, survived by two of his five children. His grave is in the First Presbyterian Church Cemetery.

Aim: To determine the value of the extensor digitorum reflex in neurologic examination.
Methods: The extensor digitorum, biceps, and brachioradialis reflexes were elicited in 65 patients with hemiplegia and upper-limb paralysis and in a control group of 120 apparently healthy people. Reflexes were elicited by both conventional means and a new method for the extensor digitorum reflex. The sensitivity and specificity of the extensor digitorum reflex were compared with that of the conventional biceps and brachioradialis reflexes to evaluate the value of the extensor digitorum reflex for neurologic examination.
Results: The sensitivity of the extensor digitorum, biceps, and nrachioradialis reflexes were 93.65%, 90.48%, and 90.48%, respectively. The specificity of the extensor digitorum, biceps, and brachioradialis reflexes were 95.83%, 94.17%, and 93.33%, respectively. The diagnostic efficacies of the extensor digitorum, biceps, and brachioradialis reflexes were 95.08%, 92.90%, and 91.26%, respectively. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) in sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy among the extensor digitorum, biceps or brachioradialis reflexes in neurologic examination.
Conclusions: The extensor digitorum reflex is a sensitive and useful deep tendon reflex and is suitable for widespread use in neurological examination.

Walton: Symphony No.1 in B-Flat Minor
André Previn|Walton: Symphony No.1 in B-Flat Minor
André Previn, London Symphony Orchestra
Released on 16/11/2018 by RCA Victor
Main artist: André Previn
Genre: Symphonies
Distinctions: The Qobuz Ideal Discography
Buy the album Starting at €15,29
This is an absolute MUST LISTEN. One of André Previn's greatest recordings captured in the 1960s in London – truly a golden era for the American conductor! Here, the London Symphony Orchestra, galvanised and operating in the very heart of its repertoire, is at its most beautiful: the brass section is electric (listen to the Scherzo!), the woodwinds are poetic and the strings unrelenting in their rhythmicity... What sets this recording apart from any other are the very fast tempos, always kept within bounds by André Previn, that help unveil Walton's great architectural sense in the most unique way – check out the magnificent coda of the initial Allegro assai; throughout this interpretation, Sibelius and Hindemith influences progressively fade away in favour of a truly distinctive orchestration and management of musical time that make this score what it really is: a real oddity in the British musical landscape of the 1930s. André Previn's performance on the 26th and 27th of August 1966 – he went on to create a new version with the RPO for Telarc − is all the more striking when we consider that around the same time, with the same musicians, he was working on the complete symphonies of Ralph Vaughan Williams which lack in poetry, most probably suffering from the type of analytical frankness that actually exalts Walton's Symphony No.1. A few years later, he also recorded Walton's Symphony No.2 for EMI, again with the LSO. This can be enjoyed with wonderful sound recording by the Decca team, conducted here by James Lock. © Pierre-Yves Lascar

Bernard Haitink, a Prophet in his Own Land
The great Dutch conductor who died recently at the venerable age of 92 proved the old adage wrong. Recognised by his peers throughout his own country from his youth, Bernard Haitink spent most of his vast career in the Netherlands, first conducting the Dutch Radio Orchestra and then the prestigious Concertgebouw in Amsterdam for 27 years, with whom he made many legendary recordings for PHILIPS, DECCA and EMI CLASSICS, including more than 450 recordings of a wide range of composers, among which Bruckner and Mahler enjoy pride of place.
Herbert Von Karajan and The Grand Masters of Classical Music
30 years after his death, the Austrian Herbert von Karajan (Salzbourg 1908 – Anif 1989) still embodies the musical conductor like no other. In charge of the Berlin Philharmonic for 35 years (1955-1989), Karajan helped to elevate the orchestra to a level of global prestige. Throughout his career, he methodically diversified his repertoire: from Beethoven, Brahms and Bruckner to Verdi, Wagner and Strauss…

Recently the Lean and Green Body team had the opportunity to try out FITTEAM FIT and LEAN, and we are loving it!
The FITTEAM LEAN is an organic, gluten free, vegan, kosher, and Non-GMO protein supplement that tastes great. As an avid gluten free vegan protein lover I sometimes worry that the shake will taste grainy or chalky, this one was surprising smooth and creamy.
The FITTEAM FIT was the supplement I was most interested in because it boosts your energy...something we can all use more of! This supplement is also organic, gluten free, vegan, kosher, and Non-GMO like the LEAN. FITTEAM claims that this supplement will boost your energy, control your appetite, enhance fat loss and improve focus...sold!
I can say that I felt a boost in energy, but not the jitter energy I receive from coffee. The FITTEAM helped me power through a long day at the office with no afternoon lull.
"I tried the Blue FIT TEAM powder right after a really intense power workout, and I knew I had a long day ahead of me, so I needed some energy. Right off the bar, it tasted great! It also wasn't at all powdery, and was easy to drink.
Lauren made a killer smoothie with the FITTEAM LEAN.

Ethics may require not a total ban on marketing to them but special care in how they're marketed to (Brenkert 2008). Suppliers need to deliver their goods to businesses that they trust to pay them well: pay their money owed or credit in time and honour their guarantees on the subject of the issues of giving out tenders and contracts. A technique of advancing this venture is by choosing a normative framework and teasing out its implications for a variety of issues in business. Perhaps surprisingly, business ethicists have stated little instantly about sales.

In 1994, NASA obtained a specially modified Boeing 757-200 to be used for aeronautical research. Named the ARIES, or Airborne Research Integrated Experiments System, the aircraft has gone through numerous customizations and modifications to earn its "flying laboratory" nickname.
Over time, NASA realized that in order to maintain the ARIES as its premier research aircraft, they would need to modify the fairings. In order to do this, NASA would need much higher quality CAD data of the jet in certain sections than the CAD data they already had. Due to tolerance stacking, the previous CAD data could not be used to accurately model and attach the new fairings.
3DScanCo — a division of Laser Design Inc — was contracted by ARINC to perform on-site 3D scanning services at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia. The Handyscan 3D quickly became the ideal choice for the project due to its accuracy and portability in scanning sections high up on the plane. Using bolt-hole locations and existing features of the plane to align the data, 3DScanCo scanned five critical sections of the 757 for fairing attachment placement.
Each section was accurately aligned with the existing scan data based on known distances in rivet placements on the plane, and the rivet placements in the scan data. Photogrammetry was used to ensure that the scan data and especially the rivet distances were accurate for the critical alignment step. 3DScanCo used this scan data to reverse engineer surfaces which were then incorporated them into the existing CAD data.
The CAD data supplied by 3DScanCo fit perfectly on the existing CAD data, resulting in NASA's ability to model and design fairings to attach to the plane. Had NASA not utilized 3DScanCo's scanning technologies, the only alternative would have been to manually shape and tool fairings to the plane, which would have required considerable amount of time, money, and trial-and-error rework. The scan data generated by 3DScanCo resulted in much more accurate and higher quality CAD data, which lead to the custom fairings fitting on the first time.


Cristiano Ronaldo's sister Elma Aveiro, has taken to Instagram her anger after the Portuguese forward's snub for this year's Ballon d'Or award which has gone to former teammate, Luka Modric.
Modric was announced as the winner in Paris, France, yesterday, and Ronaldo came second.
This infuriated the five time winner of the award's sister who took her emotions to her Instagram account saying: "Unfortunately this is the world we live in, rotten, with mafia and f******g money.
The top five of the shortlist also consisted of Antoine Griezmann followed by Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi, respectively.

I'm so satisfied that they have added at least one Tortoise on the parking lot, the museum dimensions are near perfect and the whole thing they really got wrong is the arena but I cant really complain. Love it and want to keep it!
WG would need to make an exception for that to happen.
It would be really cool if you could drive around it. There wouldn't be much point to it, but it would still be fun for a bit.

On June 16th, over 50 people joined our webinar that looked back at the world's largest ransomware attack, WannaCry. Our VP of Sales and Marketing, Stephen Riddick, led this educational event in which he described what happened, and what you can do to protect yourself from future outbreaks.
First, we'll explain what Ransomware is. It's a type of malware that infects, locks or takes control of your IT system and demands a ransom payment to release it.
$200 Million was paid in the U.S.
Ransomware attacks are growing exponentially each month that goes by. It's a booming business for hackers.
On Friday, May 12, 2017 the WanaCrypt0r ransomware was detected in hospitals in the UK. It then exploded across the globe, impacting tens of thousands of computers in over 150 countries. It was the biggest ransomware attack in the history of the Internet.
The NSA created weapons for the WannaCry Ransomware. Unfortunately, they didn't notify Microsoft.
NSA discovered the Microsoft vulnerability and kept it as a cyber weapon.
The Cyber-Weapons "EternalBlue" and "DoublePulsar" were leaked.
Hackers used these weapons to exploit a hole—SMB (Server Message Block) Port 445.
It scanned ports, gained entry, encrypted, and spread.
A security analyst found the Kill Switch in the code.
Note: Microsoft knew about the vulnerability and had released the patch in March, but they didn't realize it was a critical situation. When they re-released it, they did so as a critical patch.
Who was affected? The majority of infections were Windows 7 and Server 2008 machines that weren't patched. It was only a Microsoft issue.

South African Airways in a hurry to cut jobs and reduce wage bill
The move is aimed at rescuing SAA from a financial crisis, owing to losses being incurred since 2011.
South African Airways (SAA) is planning to decrease its wage bill by cutting jobs as soon as possible. The state-owned airline had revealed in November last year that it planned to lay off about 944 employees due to heavy losses being incurred. The announcement had met with protests and strikes by employees resulting in cancelled flights and the carrier being placed in bankruptcy protection
However, following financial assistance from the Development Bank of Southern Africa, in the form of $239-million, the airline managed to stay afloat. Now, it appears that downsizing is the only way forward in order to continue operations and try to make profits. And SAA wants to start trimming very soon.
The employees are not ready to take this lying down. They allege that it is the airline's inability to manage its finances that has reduced it to this state, and that the employees' wages cannot be blamed in any way.
The employees' unions have sought detailed discussions with the creditors of SAA in order to obtain more details of the situation. They wish to know the logic behind the decision to downsize.
Meanwhile, the business rescue practitioners handling SAA's financial matters have sought the assistance of the Unemployment Insurance Fund. This move only shows that the layoffs are an important part of the turnaround plan for SAA, which will be presented to the Government by end of February.

Shucker Center receives grant from Triad Foundation
Each year, 25 freshmen are chosen to become Fellows in Shucker Leadership Institute. SLI demonstrates The Furman Advantage, which prepares students for a lifetime of meaningful leadership and service.
November 8, 2017 by Tina Underwood, Contributor
Furman University has received a $25,000 grant from the Triad Foundation of Ithaca, New York to support the University's Shucker Center for Leadership Development.
This latest gift marks the foundation's fourth to the Shucker Center, bringing the total amount granted by Triad to $75,000. The gift, which was proposed by Furman student Sam Fowler (Class of 2019) and a junior director of Triad Foundation, was made in honor of the program's namesake, Harry B. Shucker, former vice president for student services at Furman.
Since 2015, the grants from Triad Foundation have supported many of the Shucker Center's programs, including expansion of the CliftonStrengths for Students Experience; the Shucker Leadership Institute (SLI); the Shucker Center undergraduate internship program; and the Shucker Fellow mini-grant program.
The SLI is a two-year program designed to foster the development of emerging student leaders through a guided experience that emphasizes self-exploration, initiative, commitment, collaboration and experiential learning. External partners for SLI include Junior Achievement, Jefferson Awards Foundation and the New Washington Heights Community Center.
Shucker Fellow Caroline Daly '19 participated in Disney's Youth Education Series this year in Orlando as part of the Shucker experience. "I learned the importance of stepping up rather than just showing up," she said. "To be a good leader you must be willing to jump in and lead by example. I also learned why creativity is such an asset and how purposeful delegation can get a task accomplished efficiently."
Approximately 25 freshmen are chosen annually to become new Fellows in SLI. SLI's guided process represents the core of The Furman Advantage, in which reflection and high-impact engaged learning enhances the college experience and prepares students for a lifetime of meaningful leadership and service.
For more information, contact Furman's News and Media Relations Office at 864-294-3107.
