Dvoted is the new website launched by the Danish, Swedish and Norwegian Film Institutes, the Icelandic Film Centre and Koulukino-Skolbio in Finland - with support from the Nordic Council of Ministers - to promote and support up-and-coming talented Nordic filmmakers aged 15-20.

The SFI is responsible for project management (in particular, distribution of submitted films and copyrights), but Dvoted's main office is based at the DFI in Copenhagen, with editorial staff in each Nordic country.

Available in the five Nordic languages as well as in English, the website offers three main services: in the Arena section, users can upload, watch and discuss films; in Mentors, they can get feedback from professionals, whose current mentors include Aleksi Bardy (Finnish scriptwriter/ producer) , Roar Uthaug (director of successful debut film Cold Prey) and Lena Hansson Varhegyi (film consultant at the DFI). In Academy, they can receive updated news and information on film production, education and international festivals.

The website can also be used as a forum for discussions or as a publishing and distribution tool. "Dvoted wants to identify and develop the talent and skills of every young person who has the ambition to tell stories in moving images", says the production team. Other organisations involved in the project include Station Next in Denmark, the Finnish Film Foundation and Mediefabrikken in Norway.

Advertisers exploit young people's "emotional vulnerabilities" , according to think-tank Compass, which this week launched a report and a campaign targeting the negative impact of commercialism on young people.
The report, The Commercialisation of Childhood, cites "aggressive marketing" as a factor in increasing mental health problems among young people, and also connects the promotion of "high levels of consumption" with youth crime such as mobile phone theft. It claims marketers "use gangs of 'cool' children to push products in their peer groups and communities, exploiting the power of peer pressure and children's fears of not fitting in for profit-making" .

Zoe Williams, campaigns officer at Compass, said: "Teenagers are not only being sold to but they are being manipulated to sell to younger kids as well. There is a pressure on teenagers to live up to the idea of being cool, and this can cause difficulties; one of the biggest issues facing young people is mental health problems, and while we are not saying you can put all the blame on commercialisation, it is a factor."

“The World Bank's Global Economic Prospects reiterates what many other think tanks have said before: we are in the midst of an unparalleled economic boom. And though the pace of expansion may be slow over the next two years, global economic growth will be faster in the next 25 years than in the previous quarter century.



More important, this growth will increasingly be powered by developing countries whose per capita incomes will rise 3.1 percent a year, up a whole percentage point from the earlier period. In absolute terms, this will take per capita incomes in the developing world to $11,000 by 2030, comparable to per capita incomes in the Czech and Slovak republics today.

Not surprisingly, poverty will decline with numbers below the $1-a-day poverty line halving to 550 million, despite the increase in population over the period. Best of all, the World Bank estimates the basic long-term trends, if not the exact growth rates, 'impervious to all but the most severe and sustained shocks'.



If that seems to suggest countries can happily free-ride on the global boom without doing anything themselves, the report quickly disabuses readers of that notion. Widening inequality, growing labor market tensions and new environmental pressures could derail the entire process. Also, policy responses will determine whether countries are able to cash in on this extraordinary constellation of the forces of fast growth with low inflation and interest rates to raise their living standards or get left behind.



The reason, as the report points out, is that even in the most propitious environment, policies will be needed to cushion adjustment costs associated with rapidly changing demands of the work place. This is particularly important since advances in technology will render many skills redundant even as rewards for the right kind zoom. The resultant rise in inequalities will, therefore, need to be mitigated by labor market policies aimed at protecting workers rather than jobs. Unfortunately, our present labor policies do just the reverse. And this is the most important takeaway for India's policy makers: get pension reform going; scrap rigid labor laws.”

Oh Lord we humble ourselves to you this day and ask you to forgive us
our sins, although we have none.

This is because it is not us who killed Jesus Christ, it was the whites.

He was betrayed by white man, and thes sold Him to another white man
who ordered that He be beaten.



It was the whites who even voted that He be crucified.

The name of the betrayer was Judas Iscariot.

We do not even have such names.



We have the likes of: NHLANHLA, MANDLA, DINGISWAYO, VUSI, TSHEPO,
LIZWI, ZODWA, SIPHIWE, SIBUSISO, ZANELE, THANDI, THEMBI, HLUPHE,
DUMEZWENI, HLACWAYO and NQABILE,

So, we could not by anyway be involved in the crucification of our Lord.

if you do not believe me you could even watch the movie " PASSION OF
CHRIST". There is no black man there.


Please Lord: let the black man be rich and the white man work for him.



AMEN.

Oh yes AMEN, just in case help us in this season....

The Africa Union sponsored special summit on food security in Africa opened in Abuja on the 4th of December 2006. The summit which is a follow-up of the Africa Fertilizer Summit and previous summits on Agriculture hosted by the Nigerian government was formally opened by the Minister of Agriculture of Nigeria, Mallam Adamu Bello, FCIB, had as its theme: Food Security – An engine of growth and poverty Alleviation in Africa and would be addressing the key challenges and issues of availability, accessibility and affordability of food in Africa. Africa is the only continent lagging behind in the implementation of commitments on food security since the World Food Summit of 1996 in Rome.

Addressing delegates at the formal opening of the summit, the Nigerian Minister of Agriculture, Mallam Adamu Bello commented on efforts and commitments of the African governments to ensuring food security in the continent and the challenges they face which include the need for increased productivity through integration of science and technology innovations, mechanization and irrigation. He also thanked delegates for making out time to attend the summit.

Speaking further, the Director for Rural economy and Agriculture of the African Union Commission, Dr. Babagana Ahmadu informed delegates that it was only the continent that had not prioritized its action plans and would be failing behind meeting the goal of food sufficiency and security, if the continent continues at the pace it is moving. He disclosed the need for African governments and the private sector to work on an action agenda that would take the continent out of poverty and improve their lot, as he said, failure would not be good for the continent’s future.

In his vote of thanks, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture of Nigeria, encouraged delegates to make fruitful deliberations and commented on pressing issues that should be address, which according to him include: better extension services and research, he further stated that the summit is an action one and should be treated as such. He finally welcomed delegates to the heart of Africa, Nigeria.

The Summit continues until 7th of December 2006, when the Heads of states would adopt Summit declaration and also formally launch the Green Wall Sahara Initiative.
