  • The Historic New Bridge Landing State Park Commission Annual
    The Historic New Bridge Landing State Park Commission Annual Report for 2016 A young visitor peers into an open window to see what is happening at the Steuben House at Historic New Bridge Landing State Park, for Calico Frolic 2016. 1 Respectfully submitted to the Governor and Legislature of New Jersey December 2016 B. Spencer Newman’s painting depicts the darkest hour of the American Revolution, when General George Washington led the outnumbered Continental garrison of Fort Lee across the Hackensack River at New Bridge on November 20, 1776. Doubtful to the last moment, this crossing preserved American hopes in the face of invasion by an army of Europe’s finest troops. Eyewitness-to-history Thomas Paine stands in the left foreground. Literally occupying the Crossroads of the American Revolution, the Zabriskie- Steuben House—the only extant house along the route of the retreat in Bergen County—went on to survive more of the war than any other home in America. The State of NJ acquired this landmark dwelling in 1928 as a perpetual memorial to the “times that try men’s souls.” 2 Dear Governor Chris Christie and Legislators: Pursuant to our responsibilities under Public Law 2009, chapter 45, the Historic New Bridge Landing Park Commission submits this annual report for 2016. 2016 has been another banner year for Historic New Bridge Landing. The key to our success is consistently exciting and innovative programming that not only attracts new audiences, but repeat visitors as well. We succeed because we understand quality programming depends not only upon having an interesting and engaging story to tell, but also on coordinating the talents of highly motivated and well educated volunteers from a variety of professions, who generously share their enthusiasm with guests, and, most importantly, who create a pervasive culture of hospitality, respect for the lessons of our history and a commitment to stewardship over a significant American Revolutionary War battleground, which gave life to our nation.

  • Chapter Ii: Ministry of Civil Aviation
    Report No. 21 of 2015 (Volume I) CHAPTER II: MINISTRY OF CIVIL AVIATION Airports Authority of India 2.1 Allotment of land for setting up and operations of flying clubs 2.1.1 Introduction Airports Authority of India (AAI) was formed by merger of International Airports Authority of India and National Airports Authority and came into existence on 1 April 1995 with the enactment of the Airports Authority of India Act, 1994. Section 11 of the Act envisaged that AAI in the discharge of its functions under the Act shall act on business principles. Till formation of AAI, Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) allotted land and hangar spaces to various flying schools/clubs/academies to impart training and other aviation related activities. This work was taken over by AAI from 1995. Till 2007, AAI did not have a defined policy for levying charges on flying schools/ flying clubs. In February 2007, AAI decided to classify flying clubs into two categories which are as follows: Category I: - Flying clubs/flying training organization registered as educational societies and operating on ‘no profit no loss’ basis to be charged nominal rates i.e. @ 10 per cent of the normal rates. Category II: - All other flying clubs/institutions to be charged at normal AAI rates for various services. There were 32 flying clubs/schools situated at various airports, under the control of AAI, in India (March 2014). The scope of audit was limited to the review of records at the AAI Corporate Office and examination of records at five regional headquarters Chennai (Southern), Mumbai (Western), Delhi (Northern), Kolkata (Eastern and North Eastern) and Hyderabad for a period of three years ended 31 March 2013; however, the data given in the para has been updated upto 31 March 2014.

  • L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato
    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.
