The Straits Times Index was up 0.4% at 3,894.86 points at 1.33pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$668.91M seen in the broader market. In terms of companies to watch, we have OCBC.

Send us a textOn the evening of 23 March 1922, in the context of a bloody sectarian conflict that had been raging for almost two years, Owen McMahon locked up his pub on Ann Street with the assistance of his bar manager Edward McKinney. The Capstan was one of several pubs owned by Owen McMahan in Belfast, the others included the International at the corner of Donegall Street, the Century on Garfield Street, and the Great Eastern on the Newtownards Road in the east of the city.McMahon and McKinney made their way towards the Antrim Road and to Kinnaird Terrace where McKinney was living with the McMahon family who had tea together before retiring to bed for the night. As they slept, loyalist gunmen posing as police officers sledgehammered their way into the house before gathering together the eight male occupants in the parlour room where they were chillingly advised “you boys say your prayers”. The gunmen opened fire murdering Owen McMahon, his three sons Thomas, Frank and Patrick, as well as Edward McKinney the bar manager. His other son, Bernard, survived the initial shooting but later died of his injuries on 2 April. Such was the horrific scene at Kinnaird Terrace that an ambulance man collapsed with shock on his arrival at the house. ‘The McMahon Murders', as the incident became known, had ‘shocked almost the entire world' according to Joe Devlin MP in the House of Commons who went on to quote from the pages of the Belfast Telegraph which reported the incident as ‘the most terrible assassination that has yet stained the name of Belfast'. In retaliation for these and other Belfast murders, the IRA assassinated the former head of the British Army, Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, and a subsequent British ultimatum to the Irish government sparked the first salvos of the Irish Civil War days later. The reluctance of the unionist Belfast government to pursue loyalist killers drove the rift between Northern Ireland's two main communities even deeper, laying the foundations for the Troubles at the end of the twentieth century.For this edition of the Historical Belfast I've been speaking to Ed Burke, Assistant Professor at University College Dublin about his latest book Ghosts of a Family where he has expertly uncovered the likely murderer of the McMahons in a case that has remained unsolved for over 100 years.I began by asking him what it was that attracted him to this topic as a subject for his new book… Buy Ghosts of a Family here.Support the show

I've been edging closer to burnout than I would like to admit. I can become too entranced by the summer and work myself to the bone while the weather is good. We don't always have to make hay while the sun is shining. Too much hay-making, and we get a little more than out of balance and out of touch. This week's rain has me reflecting on how nature provides opportunities for rest and reflection. This podcast is perfect for you workhorses who, like me, keep going long after we're told to stop. Listen if you've ever struggled to find the balance in work during the summer or have looked for a way to describe this feeling. In this episode, we use the rain, Robert Moore's manly archetypes and Trungpa's Great Eastern Sun to reflect on how we can get out of balance by following our thinking mind through task lists. The thinking mind can bring us opportunities but too much, and we begin to overthink into fear and scarcity.

Se dice que lo construyeron con el acero del viejo barco "Great Eastern" un barco maldito, y por ello el UB-65 estaba maldito, sediento de sangre, sediento de muerte... acompañe a Relatos del lado oscuro a conocer este suceso que si bien, no se puede saber a ciencia cierta la verdad, si hay una enorme lista de sucesos macbros registrados en su corta historia...
