So say my Igbo people. One person does not raise a child. The same goes for this study. I owe its success to many beautiful hearts I met before and during the period of my studies. I was able to embark on and complete this project because of them. Whatever shortcomings in the study, though, remain mine. I appreciate my uncle and lecturer, Chief Pius Enebeli Opene, who put in my head the idea of joining the academia. Though he did not live to see me complete this program, I want him to know that his son completed the program successfully, and that his encouraging words still guide and motivate me as I strive for greater heights. Words fail me to adequately express my gratitude to my supervisor, PD Dr. Eric A. Anchimbe. His encouragements and confidence in me made me believe in myself again, for I was at the verge of giving up.

  • TAROM Selects ATR 72-600 to Renew Its Regional Fleet
    TAROM selects ATR 72-600 to renew its regional fleet Major fleet upgrade with nine modern turboprops providing increased seat capacity, lowest operating costs and best environmental performance Toulouse, 26 June, 2019 – TAROM, the Romanian national air carrier, will introduce nine new ATR 72- 600 aircraft, the market-leading product of the world’s number one regional aircraft manufacturer, into its fleet. The ATR 72-600 will be leased from NAC, the world’s number one regional aircraft lessor. Deliveries will commence in October 2019 through to 2020. TAROM has been very successful in its domestic market operations by using ATRs to allow it to compete with low cost carriers. This upgrade will ensure that the airline is equipped with the latest generation of turboprops burning 40% less fuel and emitting 40% less CO2 than regional jets. New ATRs will offer TAROM an additional 330,000 seats every year at the same operating cost as its previous seat level, improving short haul connectivity in Romania and supporting the development of local and more isolated communities. This will provide TAROM with the possibility to further expand and consolidate their position in the market. TAROM Chief Executive Officer Madalina Mezei said: “We have selected ATR after a comprehensive review of competing aircraft, with the ATR 72-600s demonstrating they are the best aircraft to meet our ambitious targets regarding efficiency, modern technology and environmental responsibility. With this aircraft, we will be able to develop new routes and increase frequency and seat availability, whilst introducing the highest levels of comfort and the latest technology into our domestic network.” “We are very proud to welcome TAROM as our newest customer,” said Martin Møller, Chairman of Nordic Aviation Capital “we are confident that the ATR 72-600 aircraft will ensure efficiency in their network for many years to come.

    CONFIDENTIAL-SAMPLE CHAPTERS FULL TEXT ON REQUEST Praise for $uperHubs “In $uperHubs, Ms. Navidi skillfully applies network science to the global finan- cial system and the human networks that underpin it. $uperHubs is a topical and relevant book that should be read by anyone seeking a fresh perspective on the human endeavor that is our financial system.” CONFIDENTIAL-SAMPLE—PROFESSOR LAWRENCE H. SUMMERS, CHAPTERS Harvard; former US Secretary of the Treasury, former Director of the US National Economic Council, former president of Harvard University, and author “Sandra Navidi’s book $uperHubs is beautifully and effectively done. Not only is it a fascinating description of the power wielded by elite networks over the financial sector, it is also a meditation on the consequences of this system for FULLthe economy TEXT and the society. ON In recentREQUEST times, we have seen extraordinary rup- tures—notably Britain’s vote to break away from the European Union and the intensified sense of exclusion felt by much of America’s working class. The last chapter of $uperHubs proposes that this ruling system›s “monoculture,” its iso- lation from the rest of society, and its seeming unawareness of the fragility of what it has built are largely responsible for these ruptures, and that the system may lead to a major crisis in the future.” —PROFESSOR EDMUND S. PHELPS, Columbia University, 2006 Nobel Prize in Economics; Director, Center on Capitalism and Society, and author “$uperHubs” is a book written with great style but also containing a lot of impor- tant substance. The style is so engaging, a real page turner, that I finished it in one non-stop session.

  • Orléans Concours International
    Orléans Concours International Orléans Concours International selects a list of recent piano works for the semifinals of the 61st Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition Music is born free; winning freedom is its destiny. Ferruccio Busoni, 1907 Throughout his lifetime, Ferruccio Busoni was a trailblazer – a pioneer in search of the new and the unexplored. In this sense he never viewed piano activity as an end in itself, but rather as a tool that furthers experimentation. The Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition not only affords contemporary music its due regard, but also selects its repertoire in keeping with Busoni’s penchant. Thanks to a fruitful collaboration with the Orleans International Piano Competition, which dedicates itself with the utmost professionalism to contemporary piano music of the twentieth and twenty-first century, the 27 finalists of the 61st Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition will be able to choose from 13 new works for solo piano that offer a wide aesthetic variety and an array of technical challenges. Handling repertoire that embraces the many facets of that which is contemporary is a fundamental trait for any performer at the apex of his or her day. This collaboration with the Concours d'Orléans is an important first step towards this end. Peter Paul Kainrath Concorso Pianistico Internazionale Ferruccio Busoni Artistic Director Piano in the XXI century Orléans Concours International, a French institution founded by pianist Françoise Thinat and focusing on XX and XXI century works, has been selecting young talents accomplished in contemporary piano repertoire since 1994. Excellence and innovation are the values that have always guided OCI’s artistic activities, which include the Concours International de Piano d'Orléans, the Brin d'herbe International Junior Piano Competition, the recording of numerous albums and the commissioning of new works by internationally renowned composers while simultaneously championing the works of emerging young composers.
