LaLiga Santander* Data updated as of January 17, 2020 Imanol Alguacil, coach of the Royal Society, has appeared this noon in Zubieta to analyze the visit to Benito Villamarín against Betis. Confirms the recovery of Ødegaard and gives the good news that Aritz Elustondo has entered training with the rest of his teammates.-Reclaimed Aritz and Ødegaard. “Aritz is the best news we could have because he has been injured for a long time, but it is soon because it is the first training with the group. You will need your time because it is a prolonged absence. Ødegaard has trained well, we were cautious in the cup, he trained well and is ready to play. ” -No urgencies. “It doesn’t matter, we face every game to win. We start the second round and we have finished the first round with 31 points and to get there there has been everything. What it is about is being regular and competitive. 31 are not bad in the first round, let’s see if in the second round we can repeat or improve. From the beginning we played against a high-level squad and in the end he will be fighting with us for the top positions. ”-Betis improved. “He is playing very well, by game he is making merit to win more games. Over there teams have passed and have suffered, being dominant and generating chances, that means that in front is a great team and we will have to do very well to win. ”
-Set versatile. “They have so many records, with players so different and so good that we are open to any possibility. Lately they stay in 4-3-3 and we’ll see if they keep it because it’s working well for them. ”-Physically prepared. “At the moment, in statistics at conditional level we are up in the classification and that speaks very well of how the players are. It’s crazy, with players with many minutes and many games. Three games in seven days demands a lot and we will see how we face them. But we have a good team with guarantees ”.-Moyá can play in the league. “Do not hesitate. Miguel knows, everyone is ready and I consider them all to play. Just as someone was surprised that he played Moyá at first and then Remiro entered during the season. If Alex played, it’s because he was the one who looked better prepared. I have to make decisions, I count on everyone and everyone is fine to play. ”-No surprises in the winter market. “I would say no. I have told everyone that I hope we are all here at the end of the season, but I understand that there will be someone who is not happy because he does not play much. I have no doubts, knowing that some do not have minutes and do not know if they will have them. ”– I met the demand in Cup against Espanyol. “The goal is the same, is to win the next game. Now we have these three and hopefully we have another three, it would be good news. With that idea we go, because the players demand me to play, they are very well prepared. But the first thing is the match against Betis. ”

In 2004, the National Transitional Government of Liberia (NTGL) embarked upon a great experiment: opening the telecommunications market to competition. The result has been an unmitigated success. We have gone from a landscape of only 5,000 lines when a public corporation called The Liberian Telecommunications Corporation (“Telecom” headquartered on Lynch Street) ruled the roost to a situation where there are almost 2 million GSM subscribers today. The cost to the national treasury has been zero, zilch, nada. But the treasury reaps millions of dollars each year from the GSM companies by way of tax revenue. It’s like belonging to a susu club, to which you contribute nothing but from which you receive thousands of dollars every month. A similar scenario can be brought into being with regard to electricity.According to the folks at Manitoba Hydro, the Canadian company that is managing LEC under a lucrative 5-year contract, financed by the Norwegian government, by which they will have pulled in $8 million in fees by the time their contract ends, the demand for electricity in Monrovia alone is 120MW. LEC is currently producing only 6MW, just 5 percent of the demand. The rest is coming through self-generation. We are producing our own electricity using everything from small Tiger generators to large Perkins and Caterpillar machines.And why is LEC only producing 6MW of power? Because many of its old generators have reached the end of their useful life. In fact, LEC is producing less electricity today than it did, say, 3-4 years ago. One clever wag has suggested that LEC changes its slogan from “Small Light Today, Big Light Tomorrow” to “Small Light Today, Even Smaller Light Tomorrow”. LEC simply does not have the resources to get the job done. To bring 120MW of current to Monrovia will cost several hundred million dollars. LEC does not have that kind of money. The Government of Liberia (GOL) operating on a shoestring budget of $500 million does not have the millions to capitalize LEC to level required for LEC to get the job done. And if we are waiting for GOL to come up with the money, we will be waiting another 100 years.Right now LEC is living on life support—-from donors. In addition to the $12 million that the Norwegian government has spent to finance the Manitoba Hydro contract, this same Norwegian government has shelled out an additional $29 million to enable LEC to expand its network. Well, you cannot build a sustainable business on the basis of handouts from donors. Donor programs typically are short-lived. So, what happens when the donor program comes to an end, as they inevitably will? You are left high and dry. If the Norwegians decide not to renew their aid program, LEC will collapse.So, what are the options for LEC? If LEC wishes to remain in business, it should either seek a long-term partner, a utility with bags of money and know-how, a partner which will inevitably demand a controlling interest in the entity. Or, LEC can simply become a landlord, leasing out its assets to another utility and collecting rent. Alternatively, it could simply sell its assets (and corresponding liabilities).But lest we allow ourselves to become too distracted with trying to solve LEC’s internal problems, let us return to our original premise: how can we apply the lessons we have learned from opening the telecommunications market to competition to electricity?The answer is quite simple: set aside the LEC monopoly and allow private companies to come to Liberia, set up shop and produce and sell electricity to us. This is precisely what an NGO that me and 25 other Liberian citizens established in December last year are advocating. Our NGO, “The Coalition to Bring Plenty Cheap Reliable Stable Electricity to Liberia” (“Brescelco” for short) has drafted a law, the “Act To Reform Liberia’s Electricity Sector” that was introduced into the Liberian Senate a few months ago under the sponsorship of Bong County Senator Jewel Howard Taylor, Montserrado Senator George Weah, Rivercess Senator Francis Paye, and Grand Bassa Senator Nyonblee Karnga Lawrence.We have mounted a vigorous public awareness campaign, visiting 60 communities to educate the public about the issues surrounding electricity. We have placed full page advertisements in newspapers, mounted banners and distributed tens of thousands of leaflets. We have collected 12, 000 signatures so far on a petition that will be presented to our law makers. The purpose of this grassroots initiative is to get the public involved in making representations to their elected officials to act so that our electricity problem can be solved.On Friday, the Senate energy committee will be holding hearings on this matter under the gavel of its learned chairman, Professor Albert Chie, one of the architects of Liberia’s national energy policy that was completed in 2009 but never implemented.

Although he is no longer a Minister of Government, Joseph Harmon will be attending Cabinet meetings and will continue to host the post-Cabinet press briefings, as he did in the past as Minister of State.Director General of the Ministry of the Presidency, Joseph HarmonHarmon, who was forced to resign as a parliamentarian and a Minister, was recently appointed Director General of the Ministry of Presidency and among his new responsibilities will be to continue hosting the post-Cabinet press conference.This, he added, will result in him still having to attend Cabinet meetings.“I can say to you; one specific responsibility I’ve been given is the continuation of the post-Cabinet press briefing. Hence my being here today, and the fact that the President has invited me to sit in the Cabinet meetings so that I can brief the nation on the things that are dealt with in the Cabinet,” Harmon stated.According to the Director General of Ministry of the Presidency, he is still unclear as to what his full responsibilities will entail.“[The nature of my new duties] is a work in progress and that [hosting the post-Cabinet press briefing] was one of the duties that has been assigned to me. As the other duties are made clear and certain, I will give that information out,” the State Minister told reporters at Thursday’s post-Cabinet media briefing.Harmon, along with three other senior Government Ministers, were forced to resign as parliamentarians due to their dual citizenship status.By resigning as Members of the National Assembly, they also effectively resigned as Cabinet Ministers.President David Granger told reporters on Thursday morning that he needs Harmon to help him manage the Ministry of the Presidency.“All Ministers are my assistants but Mr Harmon, in particular, will have a non-ministerial role in helping me to manage the Ministry of the Presidency,” he posited.According to the Head of State, the Ministry of the Presidency has several large Departments which effectively places him with the responsibility over several critical areas such as defence, environment and energy. Hence the need for help.“There are three large Departments – the Department of Public Service, the Department of Culture, Youth and Sport and the Department of Energy. These are all very huge administrative responsibilities and I needed assistance in helping me to manage them,” the President noted.However, along with Harmon, the Ministry of the Presidency has Dawn Hastings-Williams, who was appointed the new Minister of State, and a Permanent Secretary. There is also a Cabinet Secretary, Edward Persico.Furthermore, the Ministry of the Presidency also includes Tabitha Sarabo-Halley as the Public Service Minister and Simona Broomes as the Minister with responsibility for Youth Development.These new appointments and reassignments within the coalition Government came on the heels of recent court rulings barring persons with dual citizenship from sitting in the National Assembly.This saw, in addition to Harmon, former Foreign Affairs Minister Carl Greenidge, former Business Minister Dominic Gaskin and former Public Service Minister Dr Rupert Roopnaraine being forced to resign.Nevertheless, it was noted that the President is in talks with these other resigned Ministers on their role in the Government. In fact, he has already met with Greenidge and Dr Roopnaraine.“I would like to have them on board… I hope that they continue to assist the Government. Minister Greenidge, for example, served under President [Forbes] Burnham and President [Desmond] Hoyte so he has immense experience and I hope he continues to serve but it is up to him. Minister Roopnaraine as well is not without experience as an academic and again, it’s up to him… I would like them to work but it is up to them to decide if they want to continue to serve,” the Head of State asserted.As his coalition Administration undergoes this rebalancing period, President Granger further noted that there could be more additional appointments at the junior ministerial level if the need arises.
In the coming days, several Police officers patrolling the Georgetown area will be equipped with a specialised radio system that will allow them access to real-time footage from the Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras in the capital city.This is according to Commander of Region Four (Demerara-Mahaica) Sub-division A (Georgetown), Assistant Police Commissioner Edgar Thomas.During a telephone interview with this publication, the Commander explained that these improved and upgraded devices will aid law enforcement officials in responding to reports of any criminal activities in a timelier manner.However, while the devices are limited, they will be given to ranks within the city to use during the Christmas season.Commander of Region Four (Demerara-Mahaica) Sub-division A (Georgetown), Assistant Police Commissioner Edgar ThomasAccording to Commander Thomas, these devices are different from the ‘body-cameras’ that policemen and policewomen would usually have. They were developed and procured for a different purpose altogether.Just a few days ago, an announcement was made that there will be an additional 17 CCTV cameras installed country-wide.The high-technology security camera system is expected to support crime prevention efforts by the Joint Services in places such as the highly-congested Stabroek Market area, the crucial Berbice River Bridge and the Lusignan Prison on the lower East Coast Demerara (ECD) among other areas.In a release, the Ministry of Public Telecommunications’ NDMA arm said the 17 new locations will bring the total number of cameras to 119 so far and these have been credited with solving a number of criminal activities around the country.Major (retd) Floyd Levi, Head of the National Data Management Authority (NDMA), recently said that the programme is being ramped-up under Safe City Solutions project being carried out in collaboration with the Chinese Government.Huawei Technologies, which is slowly emerging as one of the world’s leading high-technology supplier companies, is leading efforts with the NDMA to execute the US$37.6 million project that would add a crucial electronic surveillance component to help Police fight crime. The NDMA falls under the Ministry of Public Telecommunications.Also, new CCTV systems are being installed at the Berbice River Bridge in Region Five and another at the Palmyra Junction on the lower Corentyne.
The current hospital, a district hospital with a publicly elected board, was built in the 1950s. It offers acute care and outpatient services and operates two rural clinics in Tehachapi and Mojave. The foundation incorporated in 2001 to help fund construction of a hospital and long-term care facility.

In 2004, voters passed a bond issue to improve the quality of local health care by expanding and upgrading emergency room, X-ray, diagnostic imaging and mammogram facilities and services; improving laboratory facilities; and modernizing hospital acute-care facilities. The hospital, designated by the state in 2001 as a critical-access rural facility, has until 2013 to either retrofit or replace its 24-bed building. “The nearest hospital to us is Antelope Valley Hospital in Lancaster. There are a couple of hospitals in Bakersfield, which is another 50miles away. We serve 21 separate population centers such as Keene and Arvin,” Richards said. “This is something that’s very much needed. It could be a matter of life or death if you have a serious injury or illness by the time you get to a hospital.” Foundation officials said if the hospital closes and its license to operate as a rural critical-access facility lapses, obtaining a new license would be difficult and time consuming. The rural critical-access designation allows Tehachapi Hospital to receive cost-based Medicare reimbursement, thereby increasing the Medicare dollars the hospital receives. TEHACHAPI – Tehachapi Hospital officials want to build a new hospital, saying it would be too expensive to retrofit the existing facilities to meet earthquake-safety standards. With $15 million in voter-approved bond funding in hand and about $1.5million saved up, hospital officials and a nonprofit foundation are seeking to raise another $3.5million to pay for the $20million project. “The cost of retrofitting the hospital to conform to current guidelines is too expensive,” said Jim Richards, chairman of the Tehachapi Hospital Foundation’s corporate fundraising committee. “It’s cheaper to build a brand-new state-of-the-art hospital.” The 24-bed hospital would be built in a newly annexed area about a mile north of where the current hospital is located.

Today An Garda Siochana, RSA and the Donegal Road Safety Working Group will support European Day Without A Road Death (Project EDWARD), an initiative organised by TISPOL, the European Police Network in Europe.To date this year, 134 people have lost their lives on Irish roads, an increase of 20 on the same period last year.Eight people have lost their lives in Donegal while 26,300 lives were lost on Europe’s roads in 2015. The aim of Project EDWARD is that no one should die on the roads of Europe on Wednesday 21st September. We are asking all road users to think about how they use the roads. We all have the power to make a real impact by making a simple decision – too often we take a risk and make the wrong choice – is that risk worth a life ?Let us all work together to reduce death and serious injury on our roads.www.tispol.org/edward #ProjectEdwardCouncil supports Project Edward today was last modified: September 21st, 2016 by StephenShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)
