Roland Babajee (Student Power)

Q- Recently there has been much debate about political financing on the campus. How did your group manage the costs and what are the different communication tools that you have used?

A- Iam happy that you asked this very important question…

Basant Lallah (Student Rights)

Q- What weaknesses do you think you have?

A- You must rather ask this question to students. If i had weaknesses, i would not have stood as candidate.

Avishkaar Jissury (Student Welfare)

Q- If Pere Gregoire sees your list of candidates, he might be frustrated because there are no Christians in your group, especially at a time when he is talking of discrimination vis a vis the creole community. Why is it the case?

A-Because our christian friends were not…

First things first: The Kop chanting the anthem ‘You ll never walk alone’ before the match raised the hackles down my back. Truly hypnotising.
Less hypnotisin was the awful start of the Reds where they took an early goal scored by an unmarked Tevez. I think LFC took the goal because Arbeloa was not where he should have been, that is at the back, defending. If there is one player that I want out of the team, then it him. And i was also unimpressed by the other spanish, Aurelio.
One goal down, at this stage of the match is a shame. And I was already thinkin of the excuses that I would be barkin to the celebratin Man Utd fans. Admittedly my stock of excuses was wearin out.
Passin over Van Der Saar’s save which denied Kuyt a goal by the 11th min of the game, I come to the own goal of Wes Brown at 26 mins. The ball was palmed by Der Saar which bounced on Brown and found the net, under pressure from Riera.
The 44192 (less the handful of Man Utd fans present at Anfield) crowd roared as the goal came with the effect of a shot in the arm. Liverpool was now building more neatly with a vaillant Kuyt, an ever present Mascherano and a convincing Riera, who made way for Babel at the 71 mins of the game.
The substitute scores for Liverpool from nearly the same position as Tevez did for Man Utd. Theoretically this is the first time in 7 Premier League years that Liverpool is infront of Man Utd. The match came to an end in front of an ever so vibrant Kops crowd who went directly to the nearby pub to celebrate.

Match sheet
Liverpool: Reina, Aurelio, Carragher (captain), Skrtel, Arbeloa, Riera, Alonso, Mascherano, Benayoun, Kuyt, Keane.

Manchester United: Van der Sar, Evra, Ferdinand (captain), Vidic, Brown, Rooney, Carrick, Scholes, , Tevez, Berbatov.

Subs – Hyypia, Babel, Ngog, Dossena, Cavalieri, Torres, Gerrard
Subs – Giggs, Fletcher, Hargreaves, , Evans, Kuszczak, O’Shea.

The MCA is a parastatal organisation under the aegis of the ministry of education and human resources since 1985,established under the MCA Act. The object of the college is to promote education, arts, science and culture generally through mass media.

One of the two operational arms of the MCA is the Media Division, which produces audio-visual materials for Educational purpose…..a support for primary and secondary schools, as well as for adult and continuing education.

I will be very grateful to you people if you could share with me your views and perceptions about the educational programmes of the MCA.  Teachers and even students of several secondary schools  have confirmed that these programmes are very useful, where images have proved to be better than thousand words. Various subjects are better understood.

What is your opinion on having audio-visual sessions inserted into the University’s modules? Do you think it will be worth for the MCA to start produce programmes for tertiary level as well,as it’s objective is to provide educational services??? For example, won’t it be interesting for year 1 communication students to view a programme of how a press or advertising company works? so many programmes could be produced for the various courses of the different faculties.

Do you think the creation of  an educational television channel for the MCA would be a good idea? Finally, instead of the MCA and MBC to be complementary or partners,do you get the impression that they are rivals?

please do share all your opinions with me as it will be of a tremendous help in writing my workplacement report. 

Just trying find out good recommendations for the MCA..lolllzzz

Storytelling is what politicians use to set the agenda of agenda-setters. Communication Advisors engineer plans to CONTROL what is said about their boss in the media. That is they voluntarily feed positive stories about their boss to the media and the latter, innocently, depicts the intended image.

An example, according to Envoyé Spécial, is the romance [and mariage] of Sarkozy and Bruni. Magazines and newspapers, which shouted on roofs tops that they got the latest about the Sarkozy and Bruni affair, were apparently fed by the comm office of the President. At that time surveys showed a drop in the number of people who still see him as the President of France.

I was surprised when I saw the report titled ‘Actualité’ of Envoyé Spécial and this puts into question what we are served everyday in newspapers. That is the audience’s agenda is set by media houses and the latter’s agenda is set by politicians.

Hopefully the MBC will broadcast that episode of Envoyé Spécial on Monday 19/05/08. Below is the URL of the site of Envoyé Spécial.

Hello,

well ish and yav thought of writing something on our blog but havnt yet got time to really write… so just something to share ‘en passant’!

I discovered it some days ago and guess I am the last one to know about Internet Public Library. Well, if am not then check it out for yourself @ www.ipl.org. The site appears to contain reliable sources for almost any reference question. There are links to Blogs by subject. There are style and writing guides and on and on. What i found really fantastic is the ‘newspapers around the world’…indeed I had a look on Indian and African different newspapers!!!! hhhhmmm virtual librarianship 2222 goooood.

Does anyone else out there use this resource a lot??

We are finally there. Four English teams ( Mant Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal) out of the eight that qualified. The other four are Barcelona (Spain), Roma (Italy), Fenebahce (Turkey) and Schalke (Germany).

Some ( the canal + guys) say that this will be the consolation prize for the England as they ll watch Euro 2008 with no particular interest. They also add (since Lyon is out) that Arsenal is the favourite, with the gamut of frenchies headed by Arsene.

So what  the draw of the quarter finals( to be held on friday) has in store? Liv’pool vs chelsea, Man utd vs Barca, Arsenal vs Roma?  Que du gratin… the pity is that anyone can play anyone in the last eight, meaning English teams may be drawn against each other.

What about Man Utd vs Liv’pool, for the kops to forget the previous humiliation?
