  • You Go Ahead, Cause Its Making Me Laugh... by Fausto Sala - Vice President FISSC
    Year Number Jan - Mar 2 1 2012 You go ahead, cause its making me laugh... by Fausto Sala - Vice President FISSC “Olimpico” stadium in Rome, Sunday 5 February 2012. Around the 20 minute of the first half of Roma-Inter in South stand appeared a banner which read: “All at 15: the nature of things, by nature force”. As everybody knows the match was scheduled to be played on Saturday at 20.45, then anticipated at 15 and at last moved at the same time on Sunday, in contemporary with all other matches in serie A as the tradition was back in the past. Thus the roman fans wanted to underline this fact and their consent for the traditional shcedule of matches, remarking as only the snow emergency had forced the hands of those in command to revert to old habits of italian football fans. We can repeat until boredom that playing at night in the coldest days of the year is madness. Yet since January 18 up to February 5, between league and national cup, 21 matches at night have been programmed and out of these 19 in the north between Bergamo, Milan, Torino or Novara. But you think that who decides does not know such facts? But more the Lega is criticised, and more who guides the Lega continues to be bend to the will of the television networks who now have absolute power to decide the time in which games are playes, having tv rights now constitute the main income for the clubs. Thus the only concern of the Lega in these last seasons, whose president Maurizio Beretta has resigned since March of last year since he now passed to a top managerial post within UniCredit, was to see how to divide between the clubs the income coming from these rights with the consequent effect of half-empty stadiums to the benefit of sitting in cosy armchairs and sofas at home.

Gruppo Lombardo Giornalisti Sportivi INVITO (valido per due persone) 30 novembre 2009 - ore 18 Centro Eventi Campari viale Gramsci 141 - Sesto San Giovanni PREMIO NAZIONALE SPORT-CULTURA-PROFESSIONI-SOLIDARIETA’ Lunedì 30 novembre 2009 alle ore 18 presso il Centro Eventi Campari, viale Gramsci 141 a Sesto San Giovanni, saranno consegnati gli annuali riconoscimenti del Premio Nazionale «La Torretta», giunto alla sua trentaseiesima edizione. Il Premio, presieduto da Bruno Pizzul, si avvale del contributo dell’Amministrazione Comunale e dell’appassionato impegno dei componenti il Comitato Promotore, i quali comprendono prestigiosi nomi di aziende, imprenditori, commercianti e professionisti. Obiettivo del premio non è solo quello di offrire un riconoscimento ai campioni dello sport, ma anche quello di evidenziare il troppo spesso oscuro lavoro di quegli atleti che, pur non praticando una disciplina sportiva popolare, hanno dedicato la loro vita e il loro entusiasmo agli sport minori, nobilitandone il ruolo e favorendone la diffusione. Il «Torretta» non si ferma allo sport perché premia, inoltre, persone che si sono distinte nella cultura, nelle professioni, nella solidarietà, per la qualità, la creatività, la capacità innovativa, l’umanità e il senso civico della loro opera. Anche per questo la manifestazione ha avuto ampi riconoscimenti a tutti i livelli istituzionali, a partire dalla Presidenza della Repubblica. Nell’ambito della manifestazione verrà assegnato il Trofeo «Atleta dell’Anno», in collaborazione con Telelombardia, Antenna 3.

  • We Now Know English Players Dive Too but the Embarrassment Produced When Caught out by Television Will Cause It to Die Out
    Rafa Benitez: We now know English players dive too but the embarrassment produced when caught out by television will cause it to die out Don't forget that players are people, too. They don't like TV to show them cheating Rafa Benitez Thursday, 14 November 2013 There is never a week without a controversy in the Premier League, is there? I do not see as many of your games as I would like because there is a very big job to do for me here in Napoli, but it was easy to notice that the diving story became something everybody was talking about a lot, after Ashley Young won a penalty for Manchester United in San Sebastian against Real Sociedad. One incident can mean a lot of talking! The analysis is always very detailed in England. I remember when I was at Liverpool and our player David Ngog won a penalty at Anfield to make a draw against Birmingham City. It is always important to be honest about these things because people see the reality in front of them. I think I said that night – it was four years ago – that it was a wrong decision to give us the penalty. My approach with a situation like this is not always to talk to the player. Just one time and it is normal; no need to make a big point perhaps. But more than once – yes, have a word and make it clear how it can reflect on the reputation of him and, more importantly, the club. I can see that everyone is saying it must be stopped and I think that is a positive thing, but before everyone starts thinking about a lot of new solutions – like penalising players with video evidence – we must remember one of the big things that has changed since I started managing.

  • Cote D'ivoire Today
    Cote d’Ivoire today since the 2009 UAM launch: 6 million Ivorians remembered a UAM message from the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations to sleep under a treated net every night1 7 private sector partners committed to malaria control efforts 1 Head of State and 3 ministries engaged in UAM activities “We rely on you to mobilize the private sector for the fight against malaria.” Ivorian Minister of Health Mme. GOUDOU Coffie (right) as she visits with UAM partners on World Malaria Day 2013 Cote d’Ivoire: A UAM Case Study Malaria threatens virtually all of Cote d’Ivoire’s 20 million people2, making it one of the most endemic countries in Africa. The World Health Organization in Cote d’Ivoire estimated as many as 9.6 million cases in 2010 and as many as 28,400 deaths.3 Since 2008, when the organization began counting confirmed malaria cases, admissions and deaths4, the number rose dramatically until 2010 and then fell, possibly be- cause civil war disrupted health systems, preventing families from accessing treatment and health workers from collecting reliable data. During this crisis, media reports showed that many malaria commodities were scarce or unavailable in the most affected regions. Today, malaria control is again a national priority under the leadership of Ivorian President Alassane Ouattara, who came to power in April 2011.
