This distortion of competition results from the fact that tax rates for diesel differ greatly from one Member State to another. At the same time, big trucks have tanks of huge capacity, allowing them to cover between 1500 and 3000 kilometres, thereby conducting a kind of fiscal planning where they take advantage of the very significant differences in national excise duties on diesel fuel (tank tourism phenomenon). The road transport sector is now fully opened up to competition. However, excessive differences in fuel tax levels are increasingly an obstacle to the smooth functioning of the internal market. The proposed changes should reduce the differences in taxation for commercial diesel, thus minimising the distortion. The result should be to provide a more level playing field for haulage companies and petrol stations in Member States which are currently affected by foreign competitors based in neighbouring countries with lower fuel prices. Apart from ensuring that the internal transport market operates more smoothly, the proposal meets common transport policy objectives and will provide better protection for the environment. It will contribute to the implementation of the Kyoto protocol. The event: Press conference with the Commissioner responsible for Customs and Taxation, Mr Kovacs in the Euopean Parliament's Press Room, in Strasbourg.

The new Consumer Strategy 2007-2013 sets out plans to shift the emphasis of the EU Single Market policy so it more effectively delivers value and choice for citizens at the point of delivery – the check-out till. By making consumer outcomes the guiding standard for policy decisions the Strategy will hit two birds with one stone: more efficient resource allocation and competitiveness on the one hand, and increased consumer satisfaction and increased legitimacy for the EU on the other. This is an important bridge between the Citizens’ Agenda and the Growth and Jobs agenda. For the last 20 years the battle over consumer policy has been focused on protection and safe trading in the high-street. In the 21st century, consumer policy must be as much about what consumers can do as what they must be safeguarded from. Consumers need better information, more transparent markets and political empowerment to act as powerful economic agents driving forward innovation and competition. They need access and opportunity, safe passage to new markets, more choice, better value and prices. The new challenges are multiple: guaranteeing real consumer choice in complex markets with consumers so often overloaded with information on prices and charges (from phone charges and electricity bills to offers by internet providers and credit institutions) they find they cannot decide what's best for them; boosting confidence and choice in online and digital markets with consumer rights that were written for another era; guaranteeing safe products in global markets with mass imports from China and beyond; making the market work for all citizens - particularly on essential services where no one should get left behind; building cross-border trust in the market - clamping down on the scams, and unfair practices that rip off consumers and undermine market confidence. And strengthening redress for consumers when things go wrong - more open cross border markets must go hand in hand with stronger systems of dispute resolution and redress. Consumers will not enjoy the benefits of the Single Market unless there are strong and effective systems in place to resolve problems with goods and services when things go wrong. The event: Press conference by the Consumer Affairs Commissioner, Mrs Meglena Kuneva, in the European Parliament Strasbourg, 15.30 March 13 (time tbc) .The Strategy launch is on the eve of World Consumer Rights Day March 15 2007. • Ebs coverage The sources: European Commission websites: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/index_en.htm http://ec.europa.eu/commission_barroso/kuneva/index_en.htm The contacts: Helen Kearns +32 2 298 7638 or +32 498 98 7638 3 Wednesday 14 to Friday 16 March: International Mobile Roaming: Progress expected at an informal meeting of the 27 Telecom Ministers during CeBIT IT Fair Hannover/Germany The news: 27 European Telecom Ministers meet informally with EU Telecoms Commissioner Viviane Reding to make progress on the EU Regulation to reduce mobile roaming charges within the EU. General agreement is emerging on most provisions of the Regulation, with some ongoing discussions on details of the consumer protection tariff and on the possible extension of the roaming regulation to cover short messaging and data roaming. The Commission is confident that a political agreement can be reached in the weeks to come and calls on the European Parliament and the 27 Telecom Ministers to cooperate very closely to ensure that European consumers will already profit from significant cost savings when going abroad for their summer holidays this year. Whilst at CeBIT (the world's largest IT fair taking place annually in Hannover), Commissioner Reding will also attend the opening Ceremony with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, give a press conference to unveil the Commission's European strategy for dealing with Smart Radio Tags (so-called RFID-technology) and a further press conference on the policy challenges for developing Mobile TV in Europe.

  • Textually Produced Landscape Spectacles? a Debordian Reading of Finnish Namescapes and English Soccerscapes
    Textually Produced Landscape Spectacles? A Debordian Reading of Finnish Namescapes and English Soccerscapes Jani Vuolteenaho Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies Sami Kolamo University of Tampere In this article, a critical attempt is made to read the language of contemporary urban boosterism – its eulogistic adjectives and slogans, escapist evocations in nomenclature, nostalgic narratives, etc. – through the lens of The Society of the Spectacle (1995, orig. 1967), Guy Debord’s controversial theoretico-political manifesto. Through discussion of empirical examples, the authors shed light on different types of in-situ landscape texts in Finnish and English cities. In the former national context, culturally escapist and non-native names given to leisurescapes and technoscapes have mushroomed over the last quarter century. While this process represents a semi-hegemonic rather than hegemonic trend, many developers’ reliance on the “independent” representational power of language has substantially reshaped naming practices in the non-Anglophone country. The analysis of different types of promotional texts at England’s major soccerscapes evinces the co-presence of nostalgic evocations of local history amidst the hypercommodification of space. Arguably, the culturally self-sufficient, tradition- aware representational strategies in current English football stem from pressure from fans, the country’s status as the cradle of modern football, and a privileged possibility to promote the game’s “native” meanings via a globally-spoken language. Finally, this article addresses the pros and cons of using the spectacle theoretical framework to analyse critically language-based urban boosterism and branding under the current conditions of neoliberal urbanism.

  • Stadium Safety Management in England
    Stadium Safety Management in England Chris Whalley, Senior Manager, Stadia Safety and Security at The Football Association, comments on the transformation that has occurred in terms of stadium safety in England. In particular, he highlights how each football club now takes responsibility for the safety of all spectators entering its stadium. English Premier League matches are broadcast all over the world. In all continents, those fans with an interest in developments off the pitch as well as on it will have noticed the splendid all-seated stadia, the lack of pitch perimeter and segregation fences and, generally, a positive atmosphere among supporters inside the stadia. But it hasn’t always been like this. Just three decades ago, English football was still blighted by the problems of supporter violence, old stadia and what we can now recognise as a lack of any safety management culture within the stadia. Two major stadium disasters in the 1980’s and a Government-led review of stadium safety brought about a programme of change which has seen the gradual transformation of English stadia and the introduction of a new system of stadium safety management. Before examining these changes in more detail, it is helpful to look at some of the problems that led to the occurrence of these major stadium disasters. Throughout the 1970’s and 1980’s, fighting between rival supporter groups was commonplace in English football stadia. From the early beginnings of football up to the late 1960’s there had been no separation of supporters in English football stadia – home and away supporters could enter any part of the stadium and generally they would stand side by side to watch the match.

  • The Football Association Challenge the Cup Final
    The Football Association Challenge The Cup Final Cup Final Facts • The match is widely known as just the Cup Final. • It is the last match in the Football Association (FA) Challenge Cup. • It has about 86 000 spectators and millions of TV viewers. • The trophy (winner’s cup) is only on loan to the winning side. • It is the oldest cup competition in the world, first played in the 1871 - 72 season. Who Can Enter? The Challenge Cup competition is open to any club in the top ten levels of the English Football League. Once clubs have registered to play, the tournament is organised into 12 randomly drawn rounds, followed by the semi-finals and finals. The higher ranked teams join the competition in later rounds when some of the lower ranked teams have been knocked out. What Do the Winners Receive? The winners of the final match receive the Football Association Cup, the FA Cup. It comes in three parts; the base, the cup and a lid. Over the years, there have been two designs of trophy and five cups have been made. The first cup, known as the ‘little tin idol’, was stolen in 1895 and never returned. An exact replica was made and used until 1910. From 1911, a new design was made. In 1992, another copy was made as the cup was wearing out from being handled, and another replacement was made in 2014. The cup is presented at the end of the match, giving the engraver just five minutes to engrave the winning team on the silver band on the base.

  • The Cultural Practice of Localising Mediated Sports Music
    Kaj Ahlsved THE CULTURAL PRACTICE OF LOCALISING MEDIateD SPORts MUSIC The crowd gathers. Hellos with friends and familiar faces are exchanged before I make my way to my familiar seat. The latest news is discussed with those sit- ting next to me: who is injured, who is going to win the game for us, and do we have a good referee today? Someone is munching on a grilled sausage; another is saving it for half time. A third sips his coffee while children happily eat their ice cream. The friend to my left wears long johns in July, the friend to my right usually arrives late carrying his lunch, a plate of kebab. A popular song plays in the background, flags are waving in the wind, and the sun shines over the local sporting event. Suddenly, a march blares from the PA system and in the blink of an eye the focus of the crowd shifts towards the pitch. The crowd claps along to the instrumental German military march Alte Kameraden while the home and away teams walk on to the pitch. The supporter group announces its presence by bursting into one of their familiar chants. It’s game time in Jakobstad/Pietarsaari. The above example describes my personal routine of going to an FF Jaro1 football game at Keskuskenttä in Pietarsaari, Finland. This routine is repeated nearly once a week during football season, only the weather differs from game to game. From a cultural and musicological standpoint, what is interesting about this scenario is the fact that a German instrumental military march, written by 1 From now on simply Jaro.

Das Team um Kapitän Schweinsteiger möchte mit einem Sieg auf Platz eins vorrücken. #BETHEDIFFERENCE 3 EDITORIAL LIEBE ZUSCHAUER, bei den beiden ersten EM-Qualifikationsspielen der neuen Saison, heute gegen Polen und danach in Schottland, sind zwei Siege für die Übernahme der Tabellenspitze in unserer Gruppe unerlässlich, was zuletzt auch Bundestrainer Joachim Löw unmissverständlich als Ziel dekla- riert hat. Durch die 0:2-Niederlage im Hinspiel in Warschau und durch das überflüssige und umso ärgerlichere Ausgleichstor der Iren im folgenden Heimspiel in der Nachspielzeit befin- det sich unsere Mannschaft jetzt in einer gewissen Drucksituation. Objektiv gilt festzuhalten, dass es in der Saison nach dem WM-Titelgewinn 2014 aus ver- schiedenen Gründen nicht richtig rundlief. Leitfiguren wie Philipp Lahm, Per Mertesacker und Miro Klose standen nicht mehr zur Verfügung. Andere hatten mit Verletzungen zu kämp- fen. Hinzu kamen mentale Ursachen, die nur allzu menschlich sind, wenn man von einem solch hohen Gipfel wieder in den Alltag zurückkehrt. Jetzt aber werden die Karten neu gemischt, und ich setze darauf, dass in den noch anstehenden vier Qualifikationsspielen die Fahrkarte zur EM-Endrunde sicher gelöst wird. Um dann im November mit zwei Klassikern gegen Frankreich und die Niederlande schon in die EM-Vorbereitung einzusteigen. Polen und Frankfurt – diese Konstellation weckt natürlich Erinnerungen an die legendäre Wasserschlacht während der WM 1974.

  • Effizienzpotenziale Im Strategischen Stadionmanagement Effizienzpotenziale Im Strategischen Stadionmanagement Abschlussbericht Zum UEFA-Forschungsstipendium
    UEFA-Abschlussbericht: Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Abschlussbericht zum UEFA-Forschungsstipendium 1 Bayreuth, den 31. März 2016 UEFA-Abschlussbericht: Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Vorwort „Vielleicht sollten wir Spieler einfach zusammenlegen und selbst ein neues Stadion bauen.“ (Stefan Effenberg, 2000) Seit Ende der 1990er Jahre durchlebt die europäische Stadionwelt eine Renaissance. Das Zitat des ehemaligen Spielführers vom FC Bayern München – zur Stadiondiskus- sion in der bayerischen Landeshauptstadt – verdeutlicht dabei überspitzt die wirt- schaftliche Relevanz und finanzielle Problematik von Stadioninvestitionen im Profifuß- ball. Aufgrund der erheblichen Einnahmepotenziale moderner Stadien verglichen mit traditionellen Spielstätten, sind Fußballstadien nicht mehr nur emotional aufgeladene, mitunter nostalgische Orte, sondern Ausgangspunkt für die Entwicklung des europäi- schen Fußballs. Allerdings geht mit den Potenzialen moderner Stadien auch ein er- höhtes finanzielles Risiko einher. Oftmals beobachtbare Überkapazitäten und mithin unzureichende Auslastung der Veranstaltungsstätte sind ein augenscheinliches Indiz ökonomischer Ineffizienz und führen im schlimmsten Fall sogar in den finanziellen Ruin. Es stellt sich deshalb die Frage, welche interdependenten Beziehungen im Sta- dionmanagement vorherrschen, die gezielt zur Erhöhung der „Stadioneffizienz“ ge- steuert werden können. Die vorliegende Forschungsarbeit basiert auf
