Without a goal in the previous five games, Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku was quick to grab the ball when his team were awarded a penalty in the 78th minute of their Champions League game against Benfica.Manchester United were 1-0 up and had already missed one penalty, a soft effort from Anthony Martial saved by Benfica’s 18-year-old keeper Mile Svilar.But with Lukaku ready to end his barren spell and secure the win, United manager Jose Mourinho signalled he wanted someone else to take the spot-kick.Spanish subsitute Ander Herrera showed his willingness to take the kick but still Mourinho was not happy until his clear choice, Dutch defender Daley Blind was given the ball and drove confidently down the middle.It was an unusual scene but Mourinho said it was simply the boss doing his job.”I am paid to take decisions – good or bad. In the first half the decision was bad because the player I chose to take the penalty missed,” he said.”In the second half I made another decision and I don’t see the drama. The penalty taker for this match was Martial, he took it in the first half and missed and he was not even on the pitch for the second one.Reuters Photo “Then I have to make a decision. Romelu wants to take, he had the personality to take the responsibility, Herrera the same but my decision, based on what we did in training in the past couple of days, was Blind. The players respected my decision and that is it – end of story.”advertisementWhile United were far from their best, Mourinho said he was pleased to have picked up a fourth win in four games in Group A.”We have not qualified yet? Four victories and it is still not enough? We must get that point from the two remaining matches,” he said.”I am more than happy. We changed a lot of players, we broke the natural dynamic and routines of the team and we played a kid (Scott McTominay) from the academy.”We scored two goals, did not concede, gained three more points, more money for the club because every victory means money and did not have any significant injuries.” read more

Acting Chief Education Officer at the Ministry of Education (MOE), Clement Radcliffe, has called on Bursars to eliminate the waste of resources, and to ensure that the school plants are managed to the benefit of students. Delivering the keynote address at the 12th Annual Caribbean Bursars’ Conference, held on November 22, at the Hilton Hotel, in St. James, Mr. Radcliffe said the region is beset by decline in trade, and natural disasters, and bursars need to employ effective management at schools, so that the institutions can, at all times, reflect value for money “Effective utilisation of that which is provided is an inescapable imperative; effective management of school plants is not only a desirable goal, but an imperative. The countries of the Caribbean, and certainly Jamaica, cannot afford the waste of resources implicit in poor management practices. The school plant is… home for many of our students, and the school environment directly reflects the quality of the education being pursued,” Mr. Radcliffe said. The Acting Chief Education Officer noted that the Ministry has, over the past two years, implemented a number of strategies aimed at enhancing integrity in the operations of the schools, including the engagement of a Post Audit and Compliance Officer. “His engagement facilitated capacity building of the Principals and Bursars through extensive training in the current systems and regulations. A manual was also developed and circulated throughout the system. It has not been surprising the favourable reports the Ministry has been enjoying from the Auditor General, and the staff members who contributed to this good assessment must be commended for a job well done,” Mr. Radcliffe said. He called on bursars to get involved in other areas of the school. “The current efforts to transform the education system provide a range of opportunities to operate strategically in a broad cross-section of areas. These include involvement in non-traditional areas of the school and the use of technology to increase efficiency,” Mr. Radcliffe said. “Bursars may wish to broaden their focus to mentoring weak students in select subjects, and get involved in the extra curricula life of the school,” he added.              The three-day conference is being held under the theme: ‘School Business Managers Surviving Today’s Challenges – Meeting Tomorrow’s Needs’. read more

It’s always nice to be reminded that a good edit concept and innovative design don’t go unnoticed by readers—or advertisers. Each of the drastically different cover approaches appealed to various types of readers, which was the reason Latina decided to keep both and do a split run of the covers for newsstand and subscribers.Like many women’s service titles this year, Latina Media Ventures’ publication was hit hard, with the 506,000 circ title seeing ad revenue fall 32.4 percent in the first half of this year, according to PIB. But the two custom Mexico issue covers—and the special issue editorial, of course—were able to secure a 6 percent increase in additional issue revenue based on new advertisers Sephora, TBS (Lopez Tonight), DosEquis and Goya, said a magazine spokesperson. “This beautiful country is not all H1N1, drug wars and violence. Mexico is so much more and this issue serves as a reminder,” said Mimi Valdés Ryan, Latina’s editorial director of the November 2009 issue which pays homage to Mexico. “Since this special issue is such a departure from our regular format, a celebrity cover model just didn’t feel right. If we used a Mexican celebrity instead, I don’t think it would have been as visually clear what the theme of the issue was. With these covers, there’s no mistaking what this issue is about.”Latina’s design director Florian Bachleda decided upon two cover artists, Jesse Reyes and Rodrigo Corral, to compete for the cover, with the runner-up’s design going inside to open as the main Mexico feature. But Valdés Ryan was “blown away when they [the covers] came in, and couldn’t decide on which one should be the cover. To make matters more complicated, the staff was also evenly split,” she told FOLIO:.The graphically strong concept covers look more like bright, authentic posters or newsweekly covers than that of a women’s service title covering health, beauty and lifestyle. Here at FOLIO:, we receive a sizable number of magazines in our mailboxes every day. Needless to say, we notice when a title touts a particularly interesting, out-of-the-box concept. So when Latina, a women’s service title geared toward young, bilingual women, scrapped its typical cover model concept and debuted two poster-quality, Viva Mexico covers, it didn’t go unnoticed by us—or new advertisers. Bachleda said that Reyes’cover, influenced by Mexican boxing and lucha libre (wrestling) posters, used “selected letterforms that are more than a century old and were in keeping with typestyles still being used in Mexico.” Corral, responsible for New York’s “Reasons to Love New York,” among others, was a “no-brainer” for a Mexico issue designer, and pulled from traditional Ballet Folklorico dances as the graphic inspiration, Bachleda said. read more
