Business cards play a pivotal role in corporate identity. From business logos to direct information, they are an integral part of commercial networking. Although primarily utilized to connect contacts, they can also cultivate leads and generate revenue. With a wide array of clients, brand establishment is truly essential. It allows you to remain competitive, while offering innovative solutions. As designs continue to evolve, several companies are seeking captivating business cards. From high-end visuals to digital marketing, business cards can facilitate multi-faceted requests. With traditional templates to cutting edge designs, they are perfect for long-term ventures or new business endeavors.
Out of all promotional media, television advertising is considered to have the most impact. The internet is a fast approaching competitor which may equal or surpass TV in the future. Other advertising mediums often fall short of TV's reach. Why is TV advertising so effective compared to other media? What makes it a superior way of reaching potential customers? What are the shortcomings of other methods that keep TV in the lead?
The main reason TV advertising is so effective is the size of the audience it reaches. Nearly every American household has a television set. TV has become an integrated part of our lifestyle. From granddads to grand-kids, every American watches at least two hours of television a day. All this television viewing means your commercial is seen more than on any other media. Of course, not everyone viewing your commercial will buy your product. Still, the odds increase with a larger audience.
TV advertising reaches a large audience. It also allows you to target certain customers. How is this done? By placing your ads on certain shows or during specified time slots. For instance, a product meant for preteens might be placed on an after school program. A product marketed to older men and woman might do better during prime time or after hours. Targeting housewives? Try advertising on daytime TV. Advertising this way on TV makes ads more effective as they are reaching your average customer.
Television allows consumers to see and hear a product in operation. It has greater sensory appeal than any other media. The internet is a close second in this type of advertising. The difference? In order to view a full-screen product video, the internet surfer must actively click on it. Television ads play with no consumer prompting. Unfortunately, this often means the viewer can get up and run to the kitchen or restroom during your commercial. Despite this, most consumers will remain seated for engaging commercials, seeing them as part of the evenings entertainment.
TV ads are effective because they reach consumers when they are most open to new ideas. That is to say, the average TV viewer is in a relaxed state of mind when watching. They are ready to be entertained and learn new things. Their work or school day is done and it's time for fun. Their minds are unoccupied. Their brains are ready to be engaged. That makes people more likely to be effected by TV advertising.
While Internet Marketing has become increasingly popular with companies, one thing to always remember is that direct marketing tools are still very effective. Print items such as flyers, business cards and folders are often overlooked as a necessary component in marketing your business. In my experience, customers always tell me how well a certain flyer worked for them in gaining valuable business and often re-order more as soon as they run out of stock to distribute.You will always find how an effective design in printing material can assist you in constructing your brand by delivering your company's specific message across to a targeted audience..

Premier Soccer Chat
10 of the funniest and most outrageous rants in Premier League history
TV pundits and journalists try get the best out of managers and players in their pre-match press conferences and post-match interviews. And sometimes the interviewee snaps… live on air.
The Premier League has seen several managers snap in interviews and here is the pick of the bunch:
Roberto Mancini concedes Premier League title… then wins it
Manchester City had just cut Manchester United's lead at the top of the 2011-12 Premier League to five points with five games to go with an emphatic 4-0 thrashing of West Bromwich Albion at the Etihad.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side had been beaten 1-0 at Wigan Athletic on the same night and the Manchester derby was coming up at the end of the month.
However, City boss Roberto Mancini was still declaring the Premier League title race over for this side, as per his post-match interview that night:
"It's still over, because United are a fantastic team and I don't think they can lose five points," said Mancini. "I will fight always, every day, and so will my team, but now it's too late. This is not mind games. I'm not saying this to take the pressure off… we will do our best because we are professional, but we lost points against too many teams."
Manchester United would drop points two games later in a thrilling 4-4 draw against Everton before Vincent Kompany scored the winner in the Manchester derby to give the blue half of Manchester the advantage in the Premier League race.
However, Mancini's side nearly blew it on the final day before Sergio Agüero's historic, dramatic, late winner versus Queens Park Rangers. A game in which punters could have found odds of 1000/1 moments before Edin Džeko equalised.
Tim Flowers has bottle
As the 1994-95 Premier League title race was coming down to the wire between Blackburn Rovers and Manchester United, the infamous Scot had declared that Kenny Dalglish's side "will have to finish like Devon Loch to give us any chance".
Whilst the runaway leader of the 1956 Grand National did indeed trip up and lose the lead, Blackburn Rovers didn't.
However, during the title race, Blackburn Rovers goalkeeper Tim Flowers would have a rant following their 1-0 win over Newcastle United in the penultimate game of the season. Flowers said to the post-match interviewer:
"Don't talk to me about bottle," Flowers said, "don't talk to me about bottling it, 'cause that's bottle out there. That's quality players out there, giving their all… we're gonna fight to the death, 'cause we've got bottle… all we can say is we'll give exactly what we've given today, exactly what we've given all season, and that's 100% bottle."
Blackburn Rovers went on to win the 1994-95 Premier League title by one point, with help from West Ham United holding Manchester United to a draw on the final day of the season.
Rafa Benítez's 'facts'
Liverpool manager Rafa Benítez appeared to be feeling the pressure of being seven points clear at the top of the Premier League in January 2009.
When asked for his reaction to Sir Alex Ferguson's comments on the Premier League fixture list, the Reds boss took a sheet of notes from his jacket pocket and began a five-minute rant aimed at the Manchester United manager.
Stressing he was "only talking about facts", Benítez claimed Ferguson was above the law and accused him of "killing referees". Some of the key quotes from the Liverpool manager:
"I was surprised by what has been said, but maybe they [Manchester United] are nervous because we are at the top of the table.
"But I want to talk about facts. I want to be clear, I do not want to play mind games too early, although they seem to want to start. But I have seen some facts. On 1 November, they played Hull and Mr Ferguson had a two-match touchline ban and a £10,000 fine after confronting Mike Dean, the referee, for improper conduct.
"During the Respect campaign – and this is a fact – Mr Ferguson was charged by the FA for improper conduct after comments made about Martin Atkinson and Keith Hackett. He was not punished. He is the only manager in the league that cannot be punished for these things.
"Then he was talking about the fixtures. Two years ago we were playing a lot of early kick-offs away on Saturdays when United were playing on Sundays. And we didn't say anything. Now he is complaining about everything, that everybody is against United. But the second half of the season will see them playing at home against all the teams at the top of the table. It is a fantastic advantage.
"But at Christmas, United played on the 29th and the rest of the teams played on the 28th. We were away against Newcastle two days after playing Bolton. They were playing about 40 hours later, they were not complaining then.
"We know what happens every time we go to Old Trafford and the United staff. They are always going man to man with the referees, especially at half-time when they walk close to the referees and they are talking and talking.
"All managers need to know is that only Mr Ferguson can talk about the fixtures, can talk about referees and nothing happens."
As per many fans' predictions at the time, Liverpool folded under pressure and Manchester United duly went on to win the Premier League title that year…
Kevin Keegan loves it
In January 1996 Newcastle United had opened up a 12-point lead over Manchester United at the top of the Premier League.
However, they started stumbling badly in mid-February, going through a spell of just two wins in eight which included five defeats, including a 1-0 loss at home to Manchester United. Meanwhile, Sir Alex Ferguson's side were going on a long unbeaten run to close the gap on the Magpies, ultimately overtaking them for the crown.
Following a 1-0 win at Leeds United that left Newcastle three points behind Manchester United, but with two games to go compared to the Red Devils' one.
Ferguson had implied that teams weren't trying as hard against Newcastle as they were United, and following the win at Leeds Kevin Keegan infamously snapped during a post-match interview on Sky Sports, saying:
"A lot of things have been said over the past few days, some of it slanderous. We've never commented.
"When you do that with footballers like he said about Leeds, and when you do things like that about a man like Stuart Pearce…
"I've kept really quiet but I'll tell you something, he went down in my estimations when he said that. We have not resorted to that. You can tell him now, we're still fighting for this title and he's got to go to Middlesbrough and get something. And I'll tell you, honestly, I will love it if we beat them. Love it."
Newcastle would draw their final two games whilst Manchester United would produce a comfortable win at Middlesbrough to seal the 1995-96 Premier League title.
Ron Atkinson must not have been bad then
Coventry City had just lost 1-0 at fellow relegation rivals Southampton in March 1996, leaving the Sky Blues in the bottom three with seven games remaining.
The experienced manager was clearly under pressure and reacted badly when Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys told him time was running out. Atkinson raged:
"I'm sorry, you can sit there and play with all your silly machines as much as you like.
"If the boys play badly I'll whip 'em, but I ain't whipping them for that. Who was the man of the match award?"
"Dave Beasant", the Southampton goalkeeper, Keys replied.
Atkinson continued:
"Oh, sorry, so he must not have played that bad then. Thanks very much, lads. Goodnight."
Ron Atkinson would then take off his headphones and walk off. However, the former-Manchester United manager was able to keep Coventry City in the Premier League that season, surviving on goal difference, with Manchester City relegated on the final day.
After Manchester United fell 12 points behind runaway Premier League leaders Manchester City back on Boxing Day following a 2-2 draw at home to Burnley, José Mourinho didn't react too well in his post-match interview.
Despite spending nearly £300 million in his two seasons at Old Trafford, the United boss felt they didn't have a right to compete with Manchester City, who have spent £361 million on players during that time.
Mourinho said:
"We are in the second year of trying to rebuild a football team that you know is not one of the best teams in the world.
"Manchester City buy full-backs for the price of strikers."
José Mourinho's notable signings as Manchester United manager have been Paul Pogba (£89m), Romelu Lukaku (£75m), Nemanja Matić (£40m), Victor Lindelöf (£31m), Eric Bailly (£30m) and Henrikh Mkhitaryan (£26.3m).
However, last summer Manchester City spent big on three defenders and a goalkeeper, as Mourinho was referring too.
Kyle Walker joined the Citizens from Tottenham Hotspur for an initial £45m, Benjamin Mendy from AS Monaco for £52m and Danilo from Real Madrid for £26.5m.
The United boss added:
"[Spending £300m] is not enough.
"The price for the big clubs is different than for the other clubs. The big historical clubs are normally punished in the market because of that history.
"The boys are doing what they can and they are doing fine."
Manchester City currently have a 16-point lead at the top of the Premier League table with eight games to go.
Joe Kinnear
Joe Kinnear was a surprise interim appointment at Newcastle United in September 2008 – nearly four years since his previous job and more than nine years since he last managed in the Premier League.
The former-Wimbledon manager made a foul-mouthed start to his time at St James' Park with a massive rant at a journalist who'd questioned his appointment.
Some of Kinnear's rant is as follows:
"Which one's Simon Bird? You're a c***!"
Next up was journalist Niall Hickman on the receiving end:
"You are out of order. Absolutely f****** out of order. If you do it again, I am telling you, you can f*** off and go to another ground. I will not come and stand for that f****** crap. No f****** way, lies."
Joe Kinnear would go on for more than 10 minutes, totalling 52 swear words in all.
The Irishman would win just four of his 18 games in charge of the Magpies before a medical condition would put an end to his time in charge. Alan Shearer would take charge for the final eight games, winning just one as Newcastle were relegated.
Harry Redknapp's no wheeler-dealer
Harry Redknapp has a reputation for being a good bargain man in the transfer market. However, as Tottenham Hotspur manager in 2010, he took exception to Sky Sports interviewer Rob Palmer.
The very brief interview went as follows:
Rob Palmer: "You've made your name as a wheeler and dealer, there's not been much wheeling and dealing…"
Harry Redknapp: "No, no, no, I'm not a wheeler and dealer, no, f*** off"
Rob Palmer: "No Harry, I didn't mean it like that."
Harry Redknapp: "I'm not a f***ing wheeler and dealer, don't even, don't say that, I'm a f****** football manager."
Two days later Harry Redknapp signed star playmaker Rafael van der Vaart for a bargain £8 million…
Roy Hodgson avoiding tricky questions
Following his side's 2-1 victory over Bolton Wanderers in November 2011, West Bromwich Albion manager Roy Hodgson reacted angrily in a post-match interview with Match of the Day's Ivan Gaskell.
The result had actually left the Baggies in the top half on course for their best-ever Premier League finish.
However, Hodgson didn't come across too happy:
Roy Hodgson: "We were rocked back by another decision I find hard to accept."
Ivan Gaskell: "Which one?"
Roy Hodgson: "Which one do you think?"
Ivan Gaskell: "I'm asking you."
Roy Hodgson: "Well I'll leave it then. If you're going to be tricky like that I won't even bother to carry on. Stop it here, shall we? Gonna be tricky with your questions? Let's start again. Which one? Well how many decisions were there? Only had two shots at goal. One was a penalty and one was a strike at goal our goalkeeper saved. So what decision are we talking about? Let's not take the piss here."
Roy Keane on Alf-Inge Håland
Roy Keane missed most of the 1997-98 Premier League season after suffering a season-ending knee injury after trying to trip up Leeds United's Alf-Inge Håland in September 1997.
According to the fiery Irishman in his first autobiography, Håland had claimed Keane was faking it at the time.
Three years later and the Norwegian was playing for Manchester City. In the Manchester derby in April 2001, Keane destroyed Håland's right knee.
In his 2002 book, Keane explained his version of the incident:
"I'd waited long enough. I fucking hit him hard. The ball was there (I think). Take that you c***. "And don't ever stand over me again sneering about fake injuries. And tell your pal [David] Wetherall there's some for him as well. I didn't wait for Mr Elleray to show the red card. I turned and walked to the dressing room."
At the time Roy Keane was fined £5,000 and received a three-match ban. However, after the release of his book several years later, the FA added an additional five games and a £150,000 fine.

July 2017 – Headed to the Land Of Chocolate, Hershey Pa.
We stopped for 1 night at Jonestown PA KOA for the sole purpose of going to Hershey Chocolate Factory.
We went on the Chocolate tour and spent $20 to sample 4 mini bars of chocolate as taste testers. It was 9pm and the place was mobbed. People walking by with shopping carts full of chocolate, you'd have thought the buying the last batch of chocolate ever to be made.
The line for the tour – how did we handle it?

The Associate Director of the Field of Education at Columbia University School of Social Work and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Cindy Bautista-Thomas has opened up to KwaK about her life experiences.
Being an Afro-Latina of Dominican decent born and raised in the Bronx, NY challenges are pretty much a given. Being a survivor of childhood sexual molestation, a child of an alcoholic parent and a divorcee, simply added to the madness. To top it off, 12 years ago, Cindy lost her father in the 2001 tragedy of Flight 587. Despite being raised with poverty and all the obstacles, Cindy managed to persevere with the guidance of a strong mother, close knit family and a strong spiritual foundation.
Here's what Cindy had to say about how she became who she is today.
What motivated you to speak out about your abuse?
After I had my daughter I realized that I did not want her to experience what happened to me. I was molested by a family member when I was 11 years old. As a result, I was depressed when I was younger and attempted suicide. I am motivated to talk about sexual abuse because it is something that happens very often in all cultures and is too often swept under the rug. I was an elementary school social worker for 8 years and heard many stories. I was involved in situations where family members were the perpetrators of sexual abuse and at times the abuse became generational by the same person. Because families were afraid to talk about it, the perpetrator continued the abuse. I want families to be comfortable talking to their children about sexual abuse and be present for their children should it occur. When it happened to me I did not feel that there was an adult that I could tell and I kept the incident inside me until I was an adult. I have since spoken out to my family. One of my goals is to eventually write a book for families to use with their children and talk to families about strategies to address the topic. I forgave him and wrote him a 4 page letter (back to back) where I let him know how his actions impacted me and told him that I forgive him for what I experienced.
How did your family react to your direct approach to such a sensitive subject?
My siblings were very supportive as I struggled through my revelations. I then learned that I was not the only one in my family who had suffered similar abuse.
What is the most satisfying part of doing the work that you do?
I love being a social worker and all that it entails. In my role currently I work with social work graduate students who are in a Master's program in Social Work. I specifically concentrate on placing students in internships in school based programs and aging programs. I am passionate about helping students find their passion and find their niche in being social workers. I also enjoy working with social workers in striving for what is really important for them and in being effective supervisors to social work students. I am particularly interested in the role of social workers in schools. Therefore, I am presently a PhD student in the Urban Education program in the CUNY Graduate Center.
Where did you find motivation and inspiration during the building of your career?
trajectories. Ultimately what drives me is helping the social work students become their best selves in helping others. Making great education accessible to all children is one of my life's purpose.
Growing up in a neighborhood often compared to quicksand, how did you stay focused on studies and the need for 'more'?
In my household, failure was not an option. My parents were very determined, despite their 2nd grade education, that their children would succeed. I am the youngest of 7 and my siblings created a great path for me in my pursuits. Although my father struggled with alcoholism, my mother's perseverance and spiritual foundation became the impetus for each of our trajectories. While I was very aware of my surroundings, living in a New York City Housing development which included gang activity, drug use and abuse and poverty; I knew that my destiny would be greater. I was a part of youth groups and Church groups that added to the leadership qualities I was receiving at home by observing my mother.
Surely there are some cases (if not all), in your social work, that tug on your heart strings. What helps you cope with other people's tragedy? What keeps you going?
In my present role the kinds of issues that tug at my heart strings are when I work with social work students that realize that this is not the career that they want and they have made significant financial investments to study. I have also worked with students who experience life tragedies while in the program that force them to halt their academic goals. During these times I am able to offer them words of support and refer them to long term assistance on campus. When I was a school social worker it was surely the sexual and physical abuse cases that tore at my heart. The way I cope is that I use prayer and meditation as a means of grounding myself in my work and in my purpose. What keeps me going is that I do the best that I can with what I can and I always walk away knowing that. In social work it is important to keep that at the heart of it all as it is impossible to save everyone and in fact that is not what you are supposed to do. The role in social work is to help others find the strength within them to take their lives one step closer to where they would like it to be, while they are living their best lives.
What would you say separates you from others in similar situations?
Finish this sentence "I couldn't have done it if it weren't for…"I couldn't have done it if it were not for the examples set by my parents and siblings and for my faith in God.
Were you always interested in social work, or was your decision to go into that field due to what you have been through?
When I was in elementary school I used to say that I wanted to be a child psychologist. Then I reached undergraduate school and realized that social work was a career that was directly aligned with my values and the education process for it would not take me as long. I realized that social work embodied the skill to look at a person in their environment and to enhance people's lives while advocating for societal changes. When pursued Social Work as a career I knew that I fell in love with a career and a purpose.
If you could give advice to young girls in a similar situation as the one you grew up in, what would it be?
My advice would be to find at least one adult who you could confide in to tell what has happened to you. There is always someone who you can reach out to and it may be someone who is not in your family. I would also tell them that they are beautiful, smart and use your tragedies and things that have happened to you for ways to inspire, encourage and inspire others.

Protestors detained by police, Yogyakarta 15 August 2017 - RNZI/Supplied
100 arrest in Indonesian cities mark New York Agreement on Papua
Protestors detained by police, Yogyakarta 15 August 2017 – RNZI/Supplied
Jayapura Jubi – At least 100 people from Papuan Student Alliance (AMP) and the Indonesian's Front for West Papua (FRI West Papua) were arrested in Yogyakarta, Semarang and Jakarta during the anniversary to protest 55 years of New York Agreement.
The protest actions by AMP and FRI West Papua were conducted in several cities in Java Island such as Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Malang, Semarang, Bandung, and also in Ternate City, North Maluku.
All the action in the cities of Java was thwarted and dissolved by various pro-Indonesia Unity (NKRI) mass organizations and local police officers. According the official facebook account of AMP, there were injured victims from those detained includes some accompanying lawyers.
In Semarang it was reported that 47 people were taken to Semarang Resort Police Station, even included two lawyers from Semarang Legal Aid Institute (PBH) who then gave legal assistance for the protest.
According to Hupla Sobolim who monitored the action in Semarang Tuesday (August 15), explained that the police had blocked their rally even before arriving at the meeting point at Diponegoro Statue.
"Dozens action participants were intercepted by the police and asked us to dismiss for reasons of no permission. But in fact we have sent the letter of notification, but the police rejected to issue the permit," he said.
The same thing was experienced by dozens of action participants in other cities in Java. The police dispersed the crowd for not having permission to take to the streets, while the organizers had sent a notice.
The police also threatened for the protest should not be held since there are counter-organizations which against the demands of Papuans. And the police choose to let the counter-organization to conduct their act instead of pro Papuan protest action.
Hupla went on to say that he saw the protest coordinator, Januarius Adii, while given speech, suddenly dragged by the police and forced him into the police car. "His dreadlocked hair is pulled by the police," he said.
"In addition, the police also pulled one of the lawyers from LBH Semarang, Rizky Putra Edry. Both (Janus and Rizky) were transported into a police truck," said Hupla.
The protest participants require both to be released and demanded to stay on the road. "Finally, all the masses were pushed into police trucks," Hupla said, explaining that the police were also transporting Nico Andi Wauran, another LBH Semarang lawyer, and was forced to squat as he was being held by police.
The police took 17 posters and 1 banner from the action.
While in Yogyakarta, 29 people were also arrested without having held the action. Since early in the morning, the police and Jogja Rembug (Katon Paksi), a local pro NKRI organization has been gathered at the action point and watch for the crowd to come.
"At 10 am two police cars, 3 police trucks, 10 police motorbikes, 1 water cannon, and more than 100 police and 30 Jogja Rembug (Katon Paksi) mass organizations are on guard," according to a chronology received by Jubi from Emanuel Gobay, a LBH Yogyakarta lawyer, Tuesday (August 15).
The Paksi Kator also marched in front of AMP and FRI West Papua crowd while chanted, "Separatist, hit, hit, hit, communist, beat, beat, beat. NKRI harga mati (NKRI is a death price or no negotiation for NKRI)".
But dozens of people from AMP and FRI West Papua try to push through their action. It was then they were herded into a police truck again.
At 6 PM local time, they were finally released. "FRI West Papua and AMP of Yogyakarta City, amounted to 29 people, all have been released," said Emanuel to Jubi.
In Jakarta, 24 people were still detained at Jakarta Metropolitan Police. There are five victims of injuries. They were all released later of the evening at about 9.30 PM local time.
While in Malang, the action was also dissolved. One man claimed to have sustained a head injury after being punched by a civillian militia member after he shouted "merdeka", a common cry for Papuan freedom
Approximately 30 participants gathered at Gajayana Stadium since the morning. They were intercepted by pro NKRI mass organizations such as Pemuda Pancasila, GM FKPPI and some religious mass organizations with religious attributes such of turban, white cap and Muslim long clothing while holding a red and white flag. They shouted a slogan of NKRI is a death price.
The New York Agreement signed on August 15, 1962 between the Netherlands and Indonesia related to the fate of West New Guinea. The agreement was deemed not to represent indigenous Papuans because it did not involve representatives of West New Guinea.
It is said as the US-brokered deal under which the Netherlands agreed to transfer control of West Papua to Indonesia, pending a UN-administered plebiscite.
The agreement then paved the way for 1969's Act of Free Choice which gave Indonesia control of the former Dutch New Guinea. Many Papuans say the process was undemocratic and a betrayal.(*)

Dehydrated alfalfa: an excellent product in terms of carbon footprint
Sometimes still associated, in people's minds, with the consumption of coal mountains, the dehydrated alfalfa industry has been working for a long time to reduce its carbon footprint. A certain efficiency that it intends to communicate well, based on an exemplary track record in the use of renewable energy and carbon storage.
"Coal mountains are a reality of the past. Today, we have an extremely positive development, on which we must communicate," said Éric Guillemot, Director of the Coopération agricole Luzerne, during a presentation of the sector's carbon and energy balances on November 23.
The subject of carbon is the heart of current events, the dehydrated alfalfa sector has been tackling the problem since the end of the 1990s. After an initial energy balance drawn up by a consulting firm in 2003, proposing areas for improvement such as pre-handling in the fields, a life cycle analysis was carried out in 2006. An update of this analysis was presented by its author, Pascal Thiébeau, at the Reims INRAE.
A POSITIVE ENERGY BALANCE
Data collection was conducted from four production units over four years of collection (2016 to 2019), representing a representative sample of 29% of national production. Several developments have taken place since 2006-2007: the implementation of flat pre-handling in the field and first trials of substitution of wood chips for coal in 2008-2009. Then from 2016, the implementation of furnaces adapted to the massive incorporation of biomass as an energy source.
CONTINUOUS DECREASE IN CARBON EMISSIONS
Since 2006, the sector's carbon emissions have also been steadily declining, thanks to the replacement of non-renewable carbon (lignite and coal) by renewable carbon. The positive carbon balance is improving, from + 218 kg/t in 2006 to + 391 kg/t in 2018-2019.
The performance of harvesting techniques, less energy-intensive industrial processes, and the replacement of non-renewable energy by renewable energy, supported by the implementation of a "biomass" supply chain, have thus enabled developments in the sector.
However, these efforts are for the moment financed solely by it. "This is a cost to farmers because not all the investments we make add value to the market. You can't keep cutting back on producers' income to be virtuous. We've been doing it for years, but it's not a sustainable management method," regrets Éric Guillemot. However, he no longer hopes that the European Union will return to the ETS mechanism (the Emissions Trading Scheme), which taxes emissions while forgetting the specificity of the agricultural sector, which captures carbon. But the sector's efforts could in the future be monetized by private funds. And these efforts will, in any case, continue to grow: "We will unveil by January our commitment to further reduce emissions by 2025-2030," says the director of the Agricultural Cooperation Luzerne.

Salvager hired to remove dragga from Mazaruni river
Posted by: Denis Chabrol in Business, News October 3, 2016	1 Comment
Acting Harbour Master, Michael Tennant (center) in discussion with one of the salvagers.
The Maritime Administration (MARAD) of the Ministry of Public Infrastructure has engaged the services of a professional salvager to remove the dredge in the Mazaruni River. The wreckage has been there since June, the Government Information Agency (GINA) reported Monday.
Acting Harbour Master, Michael Tennant visited the location of the wreckage on Saturday. He was accompanied by professional salvager, Captain Leroy Benjamin who is expected to provide an assessment report by the middle of this week.
Meanwhile, Crown Mining Company, which owns the grounded 'dragga' has made attempts to remove the sunken equipment.
According to Director of the company, Mahendra Persaud initial efforts were futile because of the water depth at the time of the incident.
"When we arrived, the water was about eight feet higher than it is now and we started immediately from the front to seal the compartments. Out of the 34 compartments we managed to seal 27 the (remaining) seven are below the water. The speed of the water is about 30 miles per hour and at eight feet high you can't stand there," Persaud told the Government Information Agency. He said the company will continue with its efforts.
However, Harbor Master Tennant, told the Government Information Agency (GINA) much more needs to be done.
"I think the owner of the 'dragga' is making some efforts as we can see. I think his efforts are not enough to clear the channel that is why we at the Maritime Administration Department will remove the dragga earliest," Tennant said.
Benjamin is expected to present his findings and recommendations to the MARAD. Works should commence thereafter. There are reports that boats cannot pass due to where the wreckage is located.
The Dragga, owned by Crown Mining of North Road, Georgetown was being relocated from the Mazaruni Mining district to the Essequibo, when it ran aground in June of this year.
A dragger is a mining apparatus like unto a floating building on which is mounted hydraulic and other equipment for extracting gold and diamond from a river's bed.

The New York Riptide were founded in 2019, and their inaugural season will be the 2019-20 NLL season. Playing out of Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, the Riptide are owned by GF Sports. They are part of the four-team East Division.
The Riptide are the third New York-based team in NLL history, following the New York Saints (1989-2003) and New York Titans (2006-09).
About the National Lacrosse League
The National Lacrosse League (NLL) is the largest and most attended men's professional box lacrosse league in the world. Founded in 1986, the NLL was first introduced as the Eagle Pro Box Lacrosse League and made up of just four teams including the Washington Waves, the Baltimore Thunder, the Philadelphia Wings, and the New Jersey Saints. 34 years later, the League is currently comprised of 14 franchises across the United States and Canada: Buffalo Bandits, Calgary Roughnecks, Colorado Mammoth, Fort Worth (to begin play in 2021-22), Georgia Swarm, Halifax Thunderbirds, New England Black Wolves, New York Riptide, Philadelphia Wings, Rochester Knighthawks, San Diego Seals, Saskatchewan Rush, Toronto Rock, and Vancouver Warriors.
Box lacrosse is played inside an ice hockey rink, with glass and rink boards surrounding the players in the "box". The teams play on green dieter turf carpet that is spread out over the ice. Box lacrosse is played between two teams of six players (five runners and one goalie). Unlike other box lacrosse leagues, the National Lacrosse League is played throughout the winter season and into the spring.
Box lacrosse differs in many ways from field lacrosse, with the biggest difference being the physical play. Box lacrosse is more physical—high contact is considered the nature of the game. It shares many similarities with ice hockey and basketball. While being extremely fast-paced, box lacrosse remains one of the safest sports, resulting in little to no injuries.
Games are most frequently on Friday nights, Saturday nights, or Sunday afternoons. The regular season is 18 games long (9 home, 9 away) and runs from December through April. Eight teams make the playoffs with teams advancing through single elimination games until two reach the NLL Finals in June, which is a best-of-three series finale to determine the winner of the NLL Cup.
When people ask us, "What is the NLL?" and "What makes us so special?", our answer is simple—we're passionate. Passionate about our skills, the game and our teammates. The NLL is made up of individuals who are respectful, disciplined and encompass all aspects of what it means to be a team player.

Need Christmas Party Ideas and Tips? Look no further!
Christmas is a time of family, fun and food! Organising a Christmas event for your company's employees (or sports club) however, can be stressful. It has to be something that is engaging, enjoyable and inclusive. Something that takes the weight off and says "thank-you for another year of great work." Tall order, I know! Good news though, it is totally achievable.
I have listed a few tips that will get you on the right track.
Also my personal recommendation for the best Christmas event ever!
Start your planning and put your ideas down sooner rather than later. This will give you enough time to make any changes or adjustments if needed.
Run your ideas past a few trusted colleagues, they will be your sure fire shot at knowing if your plans are hot……or not.
Don't hesitate, book your date! Trust me, you want to secure your epic event as soon as possible.
Your team members are worth it. Put in the effort and give them the event they deserve.
Fun, teambuilding, communication, light physical effort, inclusiveness, outdoors, new skills, the list goes on. It seriously has it all and it's my top recommendation for the best breakup event!
Australian Kayaking Adventures has options for all sizes and types of groups looking for a great Christmas break-up.
We have THREE options for you to choose from to best suit your team.
Can cater up to 18 people, includes a light breakfast, snorkeling at Wavebreak Island, a guided walk on South Stradbroke Island and a visit to one of Australia's best surfing beaches.
Can cater up to 22 people, includes a guided paddle around the Surfers Paradise waterways, a beautiful sunset and a glass of white wine upon return if desired.
Paddle Board and Kayak Hire.
Can cater up to 28 people. Learn a new skill and then enjoy your own experience in the Surfers Paradise waterways. Go your own pace or race a friend. Oh, and don't forget to keep an eye out for marine life.
A kayaking Christmas break up event is always a winner. We have seen many teams enjoying and building stronger relationships out on the waters of the Gold Coast. Most recently we have had the pleasure of catering for many doctors and nurses attending a "National Pediatrics Conference". Many came down after one of their sessions, hired kayaks and paddleboards and had an absolute blast.
Let us look after you and your team this Christmas. We put in all the work, so you don't have to. This is one Christmas break up event that everyone will enjoy and remember for years to come!

Face masks will remain compulsory in Italy in some indoor venues until mid-June

Face masks will remain...
Italy has ordered the use of masks at some indoor events until the middle of June.
Until June 15, ace masks will be required on public transportation and in some indoor events in Italy, according to the health minister, as one of the countries most struck by COVID postponed the end of pandemic restrictions.
Masks will still be necessary to attend cinemas, theaters, indoor events, and hospitals, according to Health Minister Roberto Speranza, who also stated that the government aims to proceed with caution in easing the remaining restrictions.
From May 1, health certificates proving vaccination or recent recovery from coronavirus will no longer be required to get access to a wide range of facilities, including restaurants, gyms, and public transportation, according to the government.
Italy was the first Western country to be struck by the epidemic, with 163,244 fatalities so far, the seventh-highest total in the world.
Infections decreased in the first part of April, but instances of COVID-19 have increased in recent days, according to research by the Italian think tank Gimbe.
Over 65 percent of Italians have had a third booster injection, despite the fact that 84 percent have received the necessary two vaccination doses.

VH1 Bares It All for Viewers with Three New Series That Expose the Private Worlds of a Hulk, a Partridge and a Male Revue
[via press release from VH1]
'Hogan Knows Best,' 'Being Bonaduce' and 'Strip Search' to Hit This Summer
NEW YORK, March 29 -- Having just posted its 11th consecutive quarter of growth among viewers, VH1 throws open the doors to the private lives of two celebrity families and scours America to cast a new male dance troupe with the launch of three new series "Hogan Knows Best," "Being Bonaduce" and "Strip Search."
HULKAMANIA IN THE HOUSE!
"HOGAN KNOWS BEST"
Hulk Hogan's famous "Grr" extends way beyond the wrestling ring and into his home. Not only is he a world famous wrestler - he's also a very "red state" suburban dad who lives on a 20,000-square-foot estate in Florida with wife Linda, 16 year-old daughter Brooke, who he won't allow to date and 14 year-old son Nick, who wants to be a race car driver. "HOGAN KNOWS BEST" takes you inside the Hogan household as Hulk and Linda wrestle with being PG parents in an increasingly R-rated world.
"HOGAN KNOWS BEST" is a production of VH1 in conjunction with Pink Sneakers. Kimberly Belcher Cowin serves as executive producer, along with John Ehrhard as producer and Scott Bennett as director and co-producer for Pink Sneakers. Warren Cohen serves as senior producer, along with Brad Abramson, Michael Hirschorn, and Shelly Tatro as executive producers for VH1.
FIRST COMES LOVE, THEN COMES MARRIAGE ...
"BEING BONADUCE" (tentative title)
This series takes a compelling, honest, sometimes hilarious, sometimes raw look into the relationship between Danny Bonaduce and his wife Gretchen. Meeting and marrying seven hours into their first date, the Bonaduces, who have been together for fifteen years, have faced addiction, infidelity and Danny's "death wish" antics -- things that have Gretchen wondering on a daily basis why she stays with him at all -- but somehow they have managed to survive as a couple. Told through a combination of couples therapy and reality, the series offers a fly-on-the-wall look at their life-altering breakthroughs, mundane frustrations, modern-day romance and endless eccentricities that are "BEING BONADUCE."
"BEING BONADUCE" is a production of VH1 in conjunction with 3 Ball. JD Roth, John Foy and Todd Nelson serve as executive producers and Troy Searer as co-executive producer for 3 Ball. Jeff Olde and Claire McCabe are executive producers for VH1 with Michael Hirschorn also serving as executive producer.
BOXERS OR BRIEFS?
"STRIP SEARCH"
The mostly-Australian male dance revue, "Thunder from Down Under," has been playing to sold-out audiences of screaming women for four years on the Las Vegas strip. Now the creator of "Thunder," Billy Cross, is going to launch a home-grown troupe of All American men. He's teaming up with VH1's Rachel Perry and scouring the country for regular guys who are willing to leave their homes, their jobs and their families for a chance at glamour and big bucks.
15 of America's most charismatic, sexy and ambitious men will abandon their 9-to-5 lives when they are selected to come to Los Angeles to train and test their dancing mettle. One by one, Billy will send home those who don't meet his exacting standards. The final seven will be awarded lucrative contracts as members of the new troupe and will perform their first spectacular show in Las Vegas, launching their careers as professional entertainers.
"Strip Search" is a production of VH1 in conjunction with Pilgrim Films and Television, Screentime Pty Ltd and Distraction Formats. Craig Piligian serves as executive producer, Andrea Richter as co-executive producer and Sandi Johnson as Supervising Producer for Pilgrim Films with Des Monaghan serving as consultant for Screentime. Matt Hanna, Michael Hirschorn and Jim Ackerman are executive producers for VH1.

Gamble is the UK importer of the Hatco brand.
Catering equipment supplier Gamble Foodservice Solutions has shaken up its management team after the departure of MD Mike O'Keeffe.
He spent 9 years at the firm, with the last 5 in the MD role, but left on 4 January to pursue a career in other areas of the hospitality industry.
Gamble feels that O'Keeffe gave dedicated and committed service to the company and it has benefited from his strategic and managerial approach.
Company chairman Richard Gamble said: "He has successfully steered the business through the very difficult times that we have all experienced during the last 9 months. I and the rest of the Gamble team wish Mike well for the future."
O'Keeffe's departure has prompted an in-depth review of the business structure and organisation by the board. Therefore, Charles Gamble joined the company as joint MD on the date of O'Keeffe's departure, with sales director Nathan Jones stepping up to a joint MD role too.
Furthermore, Holly Francis returned to the team as sales director on 4 January. She was previously with the company for 10 years.
Richard Gamble commented: "During that time, she was highly successful and made a tremendous contribution to the sales effort. We were very reluctant to lose Holly in early 2017 when she chose to pursue a family business opportunity.
"She subsequently joined YCE Limited as head of sales and marketing, a position she held until recently."
He concluded: "During 2021 we will be looking to add to, and strengthen, the sales team to combat what will be, without doubt, a difficult year for the whole industry.
"As one of the industry leaders, we will continue to provide a professional service, offering robust and quality solutions to the foodservice industry."
Gamble Foodservice Solutions imports brands including FWE, Hatco, Imperial, MKN, Montague and Ovention to the UK.

Norway-based operator The Fjords has taken delivery of its first all-electric ferry Future of The Fjords, which will be the first zero-emission passenger to sail in Western Norway.
Future of The Fjords is a 400-passenger catamaran that was built as a sister ship to Vision of The Fjords, a diesel-electric hybrid passenger vessel that was launched in 2016. Both 42-metre-long vessels were designed and built by Norwegian shipyard Brødrene Aa and feature carbon fibre hulls that mirror the zigzag mountain paths of the Norwegian mountains.
Unlike her sister, Future of The Fjords is propelled by two 450 kilowatt electric motors that can be recharged via a new Power Dock charging station that floats in Gudvangen harbour. Jointly developed by The Fjords and Brødrene Aa, the 40-metre-long Power Dock has a 2.4-megawatt hour battery pack that charges steadily via a connection to Gudvangen's local power grid throughout the day, so it can be used to recharge Future of the Fjords in 20 minutes. Future of The Fjords can also offload black water onto Power Dock for onshore treatment, making her the only passenger vessel that does not discharge sewage directly into the fjords. Power Dock also stores consumables and fuel for sister vessels.
Future of The Fjords will begin operations in mid-May 2018 and will make around 700 yearly roundtrips along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed fjord route between Flåm and Gudvangen.
CruiseandFerry.net is the online home of International Cruise & Ferry Review, a twice-yearly magazine that is available for subscription in both printed and digital formats.
Via their website, magazine and social networks, they aim to be the world's best supplier of news and insight into the global passenger shipping industries. Their content covers both the cruise and ferry businesses, and provides their audience with insight into building and refurbishment, marine operations, onboard experience, ports and destinations and more.
International Cruise & Ferry Review magazine was first launched in the early 1990s and since then has become a trusted and reliable source for news on the passenger shipping industry. In 2011, the title was acquired by Tudor Rose, whose investments have built on the strong foundation, transforming the brand into the definitive resource for decision makers in the cruise and ferry industries. Now available in digital editions, supported by the new CruiseandFerry.net website, a Facebook page and Twitter feed, International Cruise & Ferry Reviewprovides comprehensive passenger shipping news and insight in formats to suit all readers.

Recently, the US Department of Health & Human Services Office of Inspector General found that, in the six-month period from January through June 2007, an astounding 51 percent of Medicare claims for atypical antipsychotics were off-label. This amounted to over $116 million in Medicare funds.
Further focusing on the off-label use of antipsychotics in nursing homes, the OIG determined that 83 percent of Medicare claims for atypical antipsychotics for these residents were associated with off-label use; 88 percent were associated with the condition specified in the FDA boxed warning.
So why are so many nursing homes turning a blind eye to the antipsychotics' black box warnings? What is pumping this water uphill? Could it be companies marketing off-label? This OIG report comes on the heels of Congressional scrutiny and a chorus of legal actions from State Attorney Generals, accusing the drugmakers of improperly marketing antipsychotics.
Some off-label marketing schemes regularly influence the prescribing habits of physicians. While the coffers of pharma companies fill with tainted funds, patient safety and government healthcare programs suffer.

RATE OF APPLICATION: As many as is needed which is usually one for every 10 feet of foundation wall in the space that is being ventilated. Other colors are available including BROWN, GRAY and WHITE. Also available as a POWER VENT which runs on power and can sometimes be needed to help "move" air through the space.


We woke to the bus joggling us along. I was still quite snoozy after a late night blogging. As breakfast was served on the bus, we pulled back the blinds and enjoyed the ride towards Mar del Plata.
Around 10am we pulled into the bus terminal which was a great relief. I was looking forward to, and more than ready for our arrival. This meant I did not have to use the bus toilet which was shorter than me and not much wider than me. Definitely more relaxed after my "pit stop" at the bus terminal, it was time to purchase a local bus pass, the equivalent of a Wellington "Snapper card", which cost 20 pesos (NZ$6) for six trips.
long distances ... hmmm". I pointed out that the blocks looked small on the map so I suggested that we venture forth and see. We fixed our daypacks to our wheelie packs and we were off!
The blocks were small and they ticked over quickly. I pulled Eileen's bag every second block. We stopped at a confiteria for some empanadas (South American Cornish pasties) and pastries which cost half the price charged in a tourist spot. The next block was a park – perfecto! We agreed it was enjoyable walking because we got to see the non-tourist part of town.
and then we hauled our bags up the stairs to our little haven for the next three days (note to each of us – be careful descending these wooden stairs).
The downstairs sun room looking straight along the beach would be our favourite haunt for the next few days. This was where Eileen and I worked on my report, almost a pleasure in such a relaxing setting.
Mar del Plata is a famous Argentine beach resort where, in summer, there are so many people that you can hardly move. I love beach places in the off season. You can tool about doing your own thing enjoying the coastal setting and the smell of the ocean.
We walked up the Stella Maris hill to Torre Tanque, the water tower featured on our tourist map. We had 15 minutes before closing time so we turned the closed door handle and discovered it was locked – very welcoming!! We wondered could they have closed early. Finally we found and pushed the door bell and "open sesame", we were welcomed by a woman with a big explanation in Spanish. None the wiser, we were soon in "el lifto" (refer to Leigh's Spanish lesson in a previous blog) speeding to the top. A great viewing point!
When we arrived at Avenida Colon for our next point of interest we found ourselves looking down the hill at a wide canyon of apartments. This seven lane wide one way road through the heart of Mar del Plata took us completely by surprise after walking through the quiet narrow side streets.
Basualdo is said to resemble a Loire Valley castle with a Belgian interior. The homestead is largely original, with kitchen and servants quarters having half the stud height of the main areas. The paintings, photographs and sculptures by Argentine artists, were largely forgettable but still worth a quick look. It was displayed in two sections, Castagnino and avant garde work and some pieces related to the history of the Basualdo family.
As the rain started we decided to head down to the waterfront for a coffee. The highlight was Eileen's hot chocolate, a submarino, which on this occasion the usual rectangular chocolate bar to be dissolved in the hot milk ,came in the shape of a submarine – very cute.
We are getting used to scouting for a supermercado (supermarket), a verduleria (green grocer) and a carniceria (butcher) as soon as we arrive in town so we were able to cook all our meals in Mar del Plata which was a first.

There is rarely ambiguity from Kenny Williams. Other MLB general managers say his phone calls are serious, purposeful and substantive, and that he is not one to mince words.

So let's look carefully at how he responded to Ozzie Guillen's apparent plea for a remodeling of the final, win-or-else year of his contract. His comments indicate that he has won any power struggle that may have taken place.
"With one more year left on his contract and another (for 2012) with the team option, if those are terms he's no longer happy with, (Jerry and) I understand and respect him enough to let him out of his deal. I've talked to Jerry and we agree if this is something he doesn't want, we're not going to stop him."" Williams told the Trib.
So, there will be no added contractual security. Per the existing deal, Guillen must win the AL Central to vest the 2012 option.
But the lead here is the comfort Williams exudes in speaking for Reinsdorf. This would seem to bury the notion of Guillen making a direct plea to ownership, pitting himself against the GM's wishes.

New West notary and couple quarrel over missing $20k after condo sale
Dustin Godfrey / New West Record
The sale of a condo in this Fifth Avenue building is at the centre of a lawsuit and countersuit between the former owner of the condo and the notary public that facilitated the sale.

How does $20,000 disappear? That's the question at the bottom of a legal battle between a New Westminster notary public and the couple whose condo sale he facilitated.
According to Christopher Dupuis, the notary public and a director of the Society of Notaries Public of B.C., in a lawsuit filed July 29, a typo in his documentation of the condo sale left him $20,000 short.

Instead of the documents noting a $644,153.80 payment from the buyer, Dupuis claims the sale totalled $664,153.80 due to a "clerical error." The difference, Dupuis claims, was pulled from his trust account to pay the former owners of the condo, which he has had to recover from his own pocket.
The matter stems from the May 15, 2019 sale of a Fifth Avenue condo previously owned by Michael and Colleen Kendall and has devolved into a lawsuit and countersuit between the couple and Dupuis.
Dupuis claims he asked for a $20,000 repayment, but was told the couple had invested that money into the downpayment on their new home. In court filings, he claims a financial interest in the couple's new home in Campbell River.
But the Kendalls disagree – in court filings, they claim they had $80,000 left over from the downpayment on the Campbell River home.
"It should have been plain and obvious to the notary that the defendants did not require or use the alleged $20,000 overpayment for the purchase of their (Campbell River) home," they said in court documents.
The Kendalls say they weren't contacted about the alleged $20,000 overpayment until June 28. Dupuis claims he caught the error at the end of June when going over his books for May. The couple say they were asked to pay through an e-transfer, which raised concerns.
The couple sought to clear the matter up with Dupuis through a lawyer, they claim, but before they could respond, a death in the family required their attention.
In the meantime, Dupuis filed his lawsuit, the couple claim.
"The defendants have never refused to pay $20,000," the couple claim in court documents.
The Kendalls say they received a cheque of just over $340,000 from Dupuis on May 16, the day after the sale was finalized. They claim they haven't since received any explanation for the error nor a new calculation to indicate what their share of the sale price should have been.
Instead, the Kendalls say, if there were a $20,000 overpayment, it would have gone into the couple's long-term investments, and they would take a financial hit if they withdrew that money early.
If there was, indeed, a miscalculation and money must be pulled out of those long-term investments to reimburse Dupuis, the couple say they're entitled to damages from Dupuis to make up for the losses incurred.
The couple claim Dupuis has failed in his duties to the couple as a notary public, and demand a refund.
In the most recent court filing, Dupuis's response to the Kendalls' countersuit, the notary denies the vast majority of the claims made by the couple.
Neither case has been tested in a court of law.

Many churches in China are considered very affluent but their pastors still live in poverty which gives the impression that churches there would rather spend big money on their church buildings but not on supporting their pastors financially. A lack of genuine respect for pastors is reflected in how they are poorly compensated and this is a big problem for the growth of churches in China. We pray for the revival of all churches and believers that they will first honor God's servants.
Some well-to-do Christian people in China demand that their pastors live by faith so they are poor which is really causing their pastors to be poor because they lack love for them. We pray that churches and believers will do their part to improve the living condition of their pastor because they should mutually serve one another.
One reason Chinese pastors are poor is that Western missionaries who came years ago fostered it. In those days China was backward so the missionaries gave to the believers and did not teach them to give and support their pastors themselves. Now many of the churches are in a legal gray zone so the pastors cannot really have a legal status of being employed. We pray that people in the churches will honor those who serve the church with a compensation that is reasonable and decent.
Another reason for pastors in China being poor is that the older pastors have always lived that way so the Christians wrongly assume that all pastors should be poor and they even believe that God loves the poor more than the rich or that being poor makes one love God more highly. We pray that there will be believers in every church who would directly support their pastor, so their love for God's servant is not merely in words but in action. Churches and believers should do their part in providing for their shepherd and respecting God's servant.
In China, about fifteen percent of divorce petitions are due to domestic violence which is next to the top reason for divorce. Men are the overwhelming culprits, engaging in physical ting and verbal abuse. Most churches there are still "stuck" in deciding whether a divorce is Biblically sanctioned. We pray that churches will provide counseling, assist in temporary separation, or accompany the couple to tests, reports, and seeking legal aid.
In general, rural believers in China do not tithe regularly and their pastors must work to support themselves. Many church workers have given up serving and sought work and better lives for their families in the cities. We pray for those pastors who have chosen to stay in their villages. May the Lord give them strength and passion to serve Him faithfully and fruitfully. We pray, too for their spouses and especially the educational need of their children.
It is a fact that there are more women than men among urban churches in China and among teenagers girls outnumber boys. This phenomenon is most likely due to their obedience and dependency on their parents. Very few churches have any program for youth and many refuse to go to church. We pray for wisdom and persistence for believer parents of teenagers, as they maintain a good relationship with their teens and continue to have a spiritual influence on them.
Ethnic discrimination is still a big factor why even some of the best-educated Uighur and Tibetan migrants struggle to find work. Tibetans and Uighurs have distinct surnames which are different from the Han Chinese, and Uighurs appearances are quite different from the majority of Chinese. We know the ethnic discrimination is long-standing and deep-rooted, but such bias has badly hurt the efforts of churches to show love and to evangelize. We ask His forgiveness and may the Lord give us all humility and His love for others.
There are government programs trying to help some Uighurs, Tibetans and other minorities to obtain a better education. Affirmative-action policies can boost their chances of attending universities. Many Han Chinese consider it is unfair and a waste of time to help the ethnic minorities. This further perpetuates the resentment and discrimination against them. We pray for repentance and removal of our ethnic pride, as the Lord gives us a tender and compassionate heart for all lost souls.
One scheme, known as the Xinjiang Class, sends thousands of Uighurs as well as Han Chinese from Xinjiang every year to other parts of China to complete their schooling. But it also encourages them to return. But, only half of the graduates actually return to Xinjiang. Not even the Han Chinese want to go live and work in Xingjian if they have a choice. We pray for believers who have vision and passion to go to Xingjiang, to strengthen the churches there and build friendship with local Muslims.
The government has made token efforts to create job opportunities for Uighurs on the coast, sending busloads of them to work in factories. But most employers are wary of hiring Muslims because of their distinct languages and diet. Such governmental schemes could be a wonderful opportunity to share the gospel with Uighurs and we pray that churches will see it as their mission to connect with Muslim workers, establish friendships, and show God's love to them.
Tibet is indeed hard soil for spreading the gospel since there are only a few thousand Tibetan Christians there (less than 0.2%). with only thirty to forty house churches where both Han Chinese and Tibetans worship together. There are gospel tracts and Bibles in the Tibetan language, including the Jesus film which is a good tool to use in sharing the gospel. Let us pray for believers in Tibet that the Lord will strengthen their faith and give them the courage to share Jesus with others.
Tibetans are basically friendly and some well-educated Tibetans are even open to Christianity which provides a great opportunity for evangelism. In general, Tibetans outside of Tibet proper (places like Sichuan or Yunnan provinces) are far more receptive to the gospel than those in Tibet itself. Let us pray for Tibetan churches and pastors, as they reach out to their own people in their own language. We pray the Spirit of God moves mightily, opening the door of their hearts to accept Jesus and set them free from the deep spiritual darkness.
One reason some people suggest for the poverty of pastors in China is that some enter the ministry after a business or academic failure or illness so they feel inadequate for the job and are content to be poor. Churches in China teach very little of the truth of tithing, and some even wrongly believe that preaching on giving offerings is a sign of a lack of faith. We pray for the strong preaching of giving among all churches, so believers will know giving to God is a way to receive more blessing from Him.
China is urbanizing at a rapid pace. In 2000 nearly two-thirds of its residents lived in the countryside. Today fewer than half do. Yet, Uighurs and Tibetans feel left out of China's economic boom; ethnic discrimination is not helping. These two ethnic groups are perhaps the most difficult in terms of evangelism. We pray that churches will not give up in sharing the Gospel with them, starting with repentance of our own ethnic pride that Han Chinese are hardworking and they are not striving and trustworthy.
Uighurs and Tibetans are staying on their farms, often because discrimination against them makes it difficult to find work in cities. As ethnic discontent grows, so too does the discrimination, creating a vicious cycle. We pray for binding of the power of Satan, so the true light of Jesus Christ will come upon these two ethnic groups, and many more Uighurs and Tibetans will come to know Jesus as their personal Savior.
Some Tibetans prefer to stay in the fields but many feel excluded rom the benefits enjoyed by ethnic Han Chinese who make up more than ninety percent of China's population.We pray for those who serve among Tibetans and Uighurs and face fierce spiritual battles, persecution, loneliness, and fatigue. May the Lord strengthen their faith and add steadfastness, patience, and God's abiding love for im and His people.
There has been far less violence in Tibet than Xingjiang, but separatism in the region is no less a headache for China's leaders. There are more than six million Tibetans in Tibet and four neighboring provinces. The proportion of farmers is nearly eighty percent. We pray that some of the well-educated Tibetans will become Christians first and share Jesus with their own people. There are some Tibetan churches outside of Tibet, we pray that they will be revived and be passionate about sharing Jesus with their own people.
Neither Uighurs nor Tibetans enjoy ready access to the job market that has drawn tens of millions of Han to cities in recent years. They are unwelcome, and they know it. It can be said that Tibetans and Uighurs live in spiritual darkness and are most resistant to the Gospel. We pray more urgently for them so the salvation of Jesus will soon come to them.
Part of the problem of Uighurs and Tibetans in being unable to fit in with Han Chinese is the languages. Uighurs and Tibetans brought up in the countryside and often have a very poor grasp of Mandarin, the official language of the land. There are so few Han Christians who really understand the culture and language of Uighurs and Tibetans. We pray for those who are seriously learning the language skills and are preparing more spiritual content in the languages of ethnic minorities.
The effort by the Chinese government to promote Mandarin in schools has encountered resistance in some ethnic regions where it is seen as an attempt to suppress native culture. In southern Xinjiang, where most Uighurs, many schools do not teach Mandarin at all. We pray for the easing of ethnic tension and antagonism toward Han Chinese in this vast region of China. Chinese churches cannot effectively do mission work outside of China, if they continue to ignore sharing the Gospel in their own backyard, in Xingjiang.

Stefan Martin Erik Rosinski (* 25. September 1961 in Flensburg) ist ein deutscher Regisseur für Musiktheater, Dramaturg und Kulturmanager.

Leben
Rosinski wuchs als ältester dreier Brüder in Flensburg auf und machte sein Abitur ebenda am Fördegymnasium. Nach dem Wehrersatzdienst studierte er ab 1983 an der Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg bei Götz Friedrich Musiktheaterregie und schloss dort 1988 sein Studium mit der Inszenierung der Oper Das Federgewand von Wolfgang-Andreas Schultz an der Studiobühne der Hamburgischen Staatsoper ab. Danach ging er als Regieassistent und Abendspielleiter nach Essen an das neu eröffnete Aalto-Theater unter der Intendanz von Manfred Schnabel. Nach einer Saison ging er zurück nach Hamburg und arbeitete als Werbetexter und schrieb Theaterkritiken. Ab 1991 war er am Literaturhaus Hamburg als Programmassistent, ab 1993 für diverse freie Theaterinszenierungen in Hamburg und Berlin als Regisseur, Schauspieler und Produzent tätig.

Von 1996 bis 1999 war er als Dozent an der Universität Hamburg und der Philosophisch-Theologischen Hochschule Sankt Georgen angestellt. Parallel dazu verfasste er Drehbücher und arbeitete als Fernsehdramaturg und Storyliner für TV-Serien wie Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten und Kommissar Rex.

Ab 2000 besuchte er die Fortbildungsakademie der Wirtschaft in Hamburg und schloss 2002 als staatlich geprüfter Betriebswirt und Industriekaufmann ab. Anschließend machte er Betriebspraktika im Vertriebscontrolling des Otto-Konzerns und im Personalcontrolling der Lufthansa. Anfang 2002 erstellte er die erste Besucheranalyse für die Hamburgische Staatsoper. Danach absolvierte er ein Praktikum im Controlling des Deutschen Schauspielhauses Hamburg. Seit April 2003 war Rosinski Abteilungsleiter für Finanzen, Controlling und Organisation am Staatstheater Hannover, am 1. Oktober 2004 wurde er zum Verwaltungsdirektor und Geschäftsführer ernannt.

2006 wechselte er als kaufmännischer Geschäftsführer des Bühnenservices zur Stiftung Oper in Berlin und übernahm nach dem Ausscheiden von Generaldirektor Michael Schindhelm kommissarisch 2007 dessen vakante Position. "Nach heftigem Streit mit dem Regierenden Bürgermeister Klaus Wowereit" wurde seine Stelle "nicht über den 31. August 2009 hinaus verlängert." Rosinski blieb jedoch kaufmännischer Geschäftsführer des Bühnenservice der Stiftung. Danach ging er als Chefdramaturg an die Berliner Volksbühne. Nach Auseinandersetzungen um Kompetenzen, entließ Frank Castorf ihn nach weniger als einem Jahr. Danach nahm er die Position des kaufmännischen Geschäftsführers am Volkstheater Rostock an.

Seit August 2016 war er alleiniger Geschäftsführer des Opernhauses Halle. Ein von ihm mit den künstlerisch verantwortlichen Intendanten Matthias Brenner und Florian Lutz geführter Kompetenzstreit wurde seit 2017 überregional diskutiert. Von Februar bis Juni 2017 war Rosinski Vorsitzender des städtischen Arbeitskreises "Bewerbung zur Kulturhauptstadt Europas" der Stadt Halle. Nach einer kontroversen Diskussion und dem Fehlen eines schlüssigen Konzeptes stimmte der Stadtrat von Halle gegen eine Bewerbung.

Der Aufsichtsrat der Opernhaus Halle beschloss im Februar 2020, seine Stelle nicht über Juli 2021 hinaus zu verlängern. Im Juni 2020 wurde Rosinski mit sofortiger Wirkung freigestellt.

Rosinski ist Vater eines Sohnes und wohnt in Berlin.
