UNITED NATIONS NATIONS UNIES Dear Mr. Madraswala, It Was a Great '' UNITED NATIONS NATIONS UNIES TIONS. N. Y. 10017 EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE SECRETAR Y-G ENERAL CABINET DU SECRETAI RE G EN ERAL REFERENCE: 14 July 1997 Dear Mr. Madraswala, It was a great pleasure to meet you last week during your visit to the United Nations. As I indicated to you then, the demands on the Secretary-General's time made it impossible for him to meet you, but I was honoured to receive you on his behalf. The task which you have undertaken on your sole initiative, to bring a message of peace and harmony to all nations of the world, is an admirable one, and entirely in consonance with the noble aspirations of the United Nations Charter. I should like to reiterate to you in this letter, therefore, our best wishes for a safe journey back home and for continued success in your mission. Only with the support of dedicated individuals like you can the United Nations 's work towards a peaceful and prosperous world bear fruits. Yours sincerely, Gillian Martin Sorensen Assistant Secretary-General for External Relations Mr. Taher Madraswala C/0 Ms. Brynn Sandier Doris S. Michaels Literary Agency New York Brynn M. Sandier Literary Agent Doris S. Michaels Literary Agency, Inc.

I started this mission in India in October, 1981 that has taken me through Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and North America with an entry into the Guiness Book of World Records. This message of Peace has eventually brought me to my last stage before I return to India. I feel it fitting that the last place I visit be the Headquarter of the United Nations; the organization whose Charter incorporates the solemn declaration that the peoples of the United Nations are determined to live together in peace and to unite their strength to maintain international peace and security. United Nations continues to provide the best hope to make our world a peaceful place to live in; to bring some semblance, justice, equality and respectability to our lives. The UN, moreover, continues to command tremendous and excellent respect in this area through providing active and committed leadership. This shows an active concern to bring world peace; an ideal that I too cherish, and for which I have been away from my family and friends for so long. I ask youjto^ consider my request for a ten minute appointment with you any time in June 1997 before I return back tormy^pme~iriTndia. I do understand that the demands of your office are very heavy on your time. But I am sure your Excellency, being a dedicated and foremost supporter of World Peace, will have a heart to meet for few minutes, a person who has dedicated hah0 of his youth years to spreading the same message across many countries. I again look forward to hear favourably from you soon. Yours Tr Taher S. Madraswala Indian Cyclist Begins The Last Leg Of His 15 Year World Adventure BY R. PAUL Hindus and Mus- DHILLON lims.

With your determination we can achieve it. I am Taher Madraswala. I have been cycling throughout the World for the past 15 years covering nearly 125,000 kilometres in 30 countries of Africa, Middle-East, Europe, Asia, Australia, Pacific Islands and North America. I have cycled through cold wintery winds and among the hot desert storms. I have crossed jungles and wildlife, mountains and valleys, villages and cities. I have met people of different races, colours, religions and languages; from the poorest to richest from the uneducated to educated, from the governed to the governors, from the most sick to the most healthy. I have been welcomed, applauded, appreciated and honoured on one hand and ridiculed, robbed,, and; scorned on the other hand. I have faced death and hunger, war and peace. It is that I undertook this cycling expedition around the''World Since very young, peace always seemed non-existent as we are bombarded through radio, TV, newspapers and magazines with the violence and bloodshed in different parts of the World as a result of cultural, economic, political, racial and religious differences; from politically motivated to personality influences. BUT WHO SUFFERS THE MOST? You guessed right. The common innocent people,'who wishes to:live peaceful, healthy and,happy life irrespective of religion, race, colour or creed. ' ' . , Whereas modern mankind prides on technological progress, PEACE still is a distant dream. HOW^CAN YOU HELP! 1. Stay away from crime, drugs, discrimination/ hatred, terrorism, greed, and corruption. Cultivate a positive attitude. 2. Help those in need, replace hatred and greed with understanding, tolerance and charity. Refrain from passing judgement on others. Instead respect and love others irrespective of race, c'oiour, religion, culture and creed. 3. Discourage aggression, violence, war, and more important, development and sales of weapons. Brace disarmament Tell your governments to spend the money instead on better education, health services and alleviating poverty. 4. Encourage and support promotion and work for the WORLD PEACE and PROSPERITY. Support UN efforts. 5. Remember GOD. Fear him and you will not go wrong. You will develop spiritual, moral and ethical virtues. Pray for his divine intervention to save us from the enemies of Peace and Brotherhood. - .

The Ceremony took place ahead of the Youth Olympic Games, which will see the first sport programme with complete gender equality, a 50-50 balance, with the same number of girls and boys competing in the same number of sports and events. Introduced in 2000, the IOC Women and Sport Awards are given to women, men or organisations who have made remarkable contributions to the development, encouragement and reinforcement of women through sport. One World Trophy and five Continental Trophies are awarded every year. Turkish Eczacibasi Sports Club is awarded the World Trophy for being sporting pioneers in their country. It was founded in 1966, at a time when the idea of women participating in a male-dominated world was not readily embraced by Turkish society. Yet Eczacibasi Sports Club has since achieved near gender equality in its administration and grown women’s volleyball to have thousands of members and millions of followers, winning a record 28 national championships, World and European titles and investing in the female players of tomorrow.

  • Seconda Parte/ / Le Olimpiadi, Quelle Che Sei La Finlandia E Solo a Lillehammer E Sapporo T'è Capitato Di Non Vincere L'oro
    Il nero muove verso il bianco... Lo abbraccia. Ha appena perduto, il nero, l'oro dei Giochi sui 1.500 metri di pattinaggio velocità. Aveva già vinto i mille metri, Shani Davis. Ma l'afroamericano, il primo a vincere un oro invernale, ha appena subito scacco matto dal bianco, l'italiano Enrico Fabris. Non si scompone Shani, sedici centesimi di troppo per l'oro, nove meglio del suo connazionale e poco amico Chad Hedrick. La conferenza stampa del dopo-gara li siederà affiancati, Chad e Shani, ancora bianco contro nero. Parole crude, pesanti... Non si guarderanno mai, uno contro l'altro! Fra battute ironiche a sfiorar l'insulto e alzar di spalle. Ma il giorno dopo, sul podio, sarà il bianco a muovere verso il nero, Chad verso Shani, con in mezzo Fabris. Hedrick stringe la mano di Davis: il disgelo. Tutto su quel podio che torinesi e italiani ricorderanno a lungo. Nella piazza più bella che la capitale del Piemonte abbia mai avuto. Piena della voglia di vivere, esserci e stare insieme. Colonna sonora di sedici giorni. Indimenticabilmente sedici come i centesimi di vantaggio dell'italiano sull'afroamericano... giochi di ghiaccio; il ghiaccio ha lasciato il segno... Come Ahn Hyun-Soo, coreano del sud che ha inciso ghirigori fantastici di linee sempre più strette sul ghiaccio dello short track, il suo sport. Tre medaglie d'oro e - bontà sua - una di bronzo nella gara in cui l'America ha ritrovato, per un altro oro, uno dei suoi figli più amati, Apolo Ohno. Sedici giorni durante i quali si sono visti sport che..

Brand creation in international recurring sports events. Sport Management Review, 15, 145-159.

Forlagets pdf-versjon finner du på www.sciencedirect.com: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.smr.2011.08.005 This is the final text version of the article, and it may contain minor differences from the journal's pdf version. The original publication is available at www.sciencedirect.com: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.smr.2011.08.005 1 Brand Creation in International Recurring Sports Events Milena M. Parent, Line Eskerud & Dag Vidar Hanstad Abstract Although recurring sports events are held more frequently and by a larger number of cities than one-off events, little research has examined the branding process within recurring events. This paper addresses this gap by examining the brand creation process for international recurring sports events. Based on Parent and Séguin’s (2008) model for one-off sports events, a comparative case study of the Alberta World Cup (Canada) and World Cup Drammen (Norway) cross-country ski events was conducted. Findings included similarities (leaders’ skills/value-based actions, induced event experiences, and institutional experiences) and differences (branding/marketing efforts, recognition of the sport, and nature of the event (success, media coverage, geographic location, and history/impact). An expanded model of event brand creation is proposed, which can be applied to both one-off and recurring sports events in small and large North American and European cities.

    Race Team Report Page10 By Corey and Megan Hello from Mont Ste-Anne! Megan and I are hanging out working on our competition Development Coaching course get- ting ready for the upcoming ski season. We are super excited for the race season, with less than 11 weeks to go before the Grand Beach Classic. We have tried a few new things this year, aligning ourselves with the Sport for Life Center and having the majority of the Race Team taking part in a weekly strength program with a strength and conditioning coach. An- other fun thing that has been introduced are the training plans for the whole race team which should give everyone the ability to modify the plan to suit themselves. We have had an amazing summer with the "second annual" Birds Hill training camp that took place early on. We were very happy that it was NOT 33 Celsius this year! We enjoyed the camping and got lots of roller skiing in. We followed that up with another camp at Grand Beach in September where the Kovachiks and the Roes opened up their cabins once again to host our club teams. Lisa Patterson (Cross Country Cana- da's Eastern Coaching Coordinator) stopped in at the camp to evaluate our coaches and give some more feed back on tech- nique to our athletes... Thanks Lisa! Grand Beach camp highlights included hiking the great ski trails and running a trail time trial. We were very spoiled by the wonderful food prepared by the Kovachiks.
