Jamie Kah doesnât seek the limelight and prefers to let her riding do the talking â but she hasnât needed to say much this season to make a whole lot of noise.
This was a historic moment for the sport as the 25-year-old became the first Melbourne jockey to ride a century of city wins in a single season.
Just think about Kahâs feat for a moment. She has achieved something that has eluded some of the greatest jockeys of them all including her peers like Hall of Famer Damien Oliver, Craig Williams, Damian Lane and Mark Zahra, and the champions of yesteryear, Roy Higgins, Scobie Breasley, Ron Hutchinson, Bill Williamson, Bill Duncan and Harry White.

Although some Realtors feared an avalanche of ethics complaints after the National Association of Realtors approved a new policy against hate speech in November, those fears appear to not have materialized thus far.
The changes, which became effective immediately on Nov. 13 and are not retroactive, apply NAR’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice to all of a Realtor’s activities, not just those related to real estate; prohibit hate and harassing speech against protected classes; prohibit all discrimination, not just willful discrimination, against protected classes; and recommend that ethics violations be considered under membership qualification criteria.
Violating the National Association of Realtors’ new policy against hate speech is considered a serious offense and will be punished accordingly, according to the fourth of six monthly training webinars the 1.4 million-member trade group is hosting in the wake of the ethics changes.

In what some consider one of the most far-reaching social policy moves in the corporate world, the National Association of Realtors, called the nation’s largest trade organization, has revised its professional ethics code to ban “hate speech and harassing speech” by its 1.4 million members.
Under the new policy, real estate agents who insult, threaten or harass people based on race, sex, or other legally protected characteristics can be investigated, fined or expelled. Its online training sessions offer a glimpse at how difficult the rules can be to enforce.
