Process and Procedures for Inviting J-1 Exchange Visitors (please read first)
Please click here and read all of the following before contacting the International Office
The J-1 Exchange Visitor Program is an excellent way for departments to invite international scholars to come to Texas State to teach, conduct research or study. The purpose of this program is "to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries by means of education and cultural exchanges." To invite an international scholar, the sponsoring individual/department must first secure an appointment through Faculty Records. The sponsoring individual/department is responsible for providing campus privileges (such as office space, use of the library, computer labs, parking, etc.). In addition, arrangements such as housing and transportation should be taken into consideration when inviting someone from abroad. After the appointment has been approved, the sponsoring individual/department should contact the International Office to assist with the immigration paperwork process.
The U.S. State Department has authorized an organization in Austin called Texas International Education Consortium (TIEC) to administer the J-1 Exchange Visitor program for Texas State. TIEC charges a fee of $255 to provide this service. This is a one-time fee and may be paid by the sponsor or scholar. TIEC, which is a vendor in SAP, will forward an invoice to the sponsoring department or they can bill the scholar who may pay by check, money order, or credit card. The International Office acts as intermediary between the sponsor and TIEC to facilitate the process and assist the sponsor with meeting Program requirements such as providing orientation and cultural activities for the scholar.The process involves six parties:1) The Department of State (DOS),2) The Department of Homeland Security (DHS),3) Responsible Officers (TIEC),4) The Texas State International Office,5) J-1 Exchange Visitor Program Sponsors (you),6) Exchange Visitors (your invited scholar or student (and their dependents, if any)),Related Estimated CostsTIEC processing fee (can be paid by Sponsor or Exchange Visitor) $255SEVIS fee (paid by Exchange Visitor online to DHS) $180Nonimmigrant visa application processing fee (paid by Exchange Visitor to DOS) $140Nonimmigrant visa issuance fee (paid by Exchange Visitor to DOS)varies by county, see http://www.usembassy.gov/Estimated living expenses for J-1 Scholar $1200/month (suggested minimum)Estimated living expenses per dependent (if applicable) $500/month (suggested minimum)Estimated costs for fulltime J-1 Student accepted into a degree program consult with International OfficeResponsibilities of Sponsors• Communicate with your prospective Exchange Visitor and obtain required information and documents from them.

Key Regulations & Procedures for J-1 visiting Researchers & Professors & their J-2 Dependents
The Exchange Visitor Program
The Exchange Visitor Program provides opportunities for internationals come to the United States for a variety of educational and cultural exchange purposes under the sponsorship of a school, an agency, or an organization that has been designated as an exchange visitor sponsor by the United States Department of State.
The Texas International Education Consortium (TIEC) in Austin is a designated sponsor for the exchange visitor program at Texas State University. The Responsible Officer (RO) or Alternate Responsible Officer (ARO) for J-1 Exchange Visitors at Texas State is located at TIEC. The RO and ARO are the only people who have signing authority for the program. Therefore, any employment permission for J-1 Exchange Visitors at Texas State must be arranged by the International Office with the Officers in Austin. PLEASE do not work without authorization from the RO or ARO. Participation in unauthorized employment is in violation of the regulations, results in loss of your J-1 status and subjects the exchange visitor to termination from the program.
Categories of Exchange VisitorThere are 10 categories of Exchange Visitor however TIEC is authorized to issue a DS-2019 for the categories of Professor, Research Scholar, Short-term Scholar (Max: 6 months), Student Intern, Non-degree Student, and Bachelor's, Master's, or Doctoral Student. Here are the categories in which you can consider inviting exchange visitors:Short-term Scholar/ Professor/ Researcher Categories
These categories refer to individuals who are in the U.S. as visiting researchers or professors under the auspices of the US Department of State and a Designated Program Sponsor. They are eligible to receive payment from the organization listed on Form DS-2019 as the source of funds and/or the Designated Program Sponsor for a period of validity as stated on the DS-2019. Under limited circumstances, J-1s may receive compensation from other institutions provided prior written authorization from the RO of their Designated Program has been secured. The DS-2019 authorizes the above stated employment. An Employment Authorization Document (EAD) card is not required.*Professor or Research ScholarA professor is defined as: An individual primarily teaching, lecturing, observing, or consulting at post-secondary accredited educational institutions, museums, libraries, or similar types of institutions. A professor may also conduct research, unless disallowed by the sponsor.A research scholar is defined as: An individual primarily conducting research, observing, or consulting in connection with a research project at research institutions, corporate research facilities, museums, libraries, post-secondary accredited educational institutions, or similar types of institutions. The research scholar may also teach or lecture, unless disallowed by the sponsor.Academic credentials: Professors and Research Scholars are expected to have appropriate academic or similar credentials. Sponsors are bound by the requirement that they "screen and select prospective Exchange Visitors to ensure that they are eligible for program participation," and that they ensure that the "program is suitable to the Exchange Visitor's background, needs, and experience."Five-year maximum, three-week minimum participation: A professor or research scholar may be authorized to participate in the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program for the length of time necessary to complete his or her program, provided such time does not exceed five years. The minimum program duration for a Professor or Research Scholar is three weeks. The five-year period is not an aggregate of five years. It is a continuous five-year period given to a participant on a "use or lose" basis. The five-year period begins on the program begin date. It is not possible to extend an Exchange Visitor Professor or Research Scholar's participation beyond five years. In addition to the general eligibility rules, participation in the Professor or Research Scholar categories is subject to the following additional conditions unique to participation in those categories:
*Short-term ScholarCaution: this category should only be used for those scholars who are coming for a short period and have no plans to continue beyond the 6-month limit.A short-term scholar is a professor, research scholar, specialist, or a person with similar education or accomplishments coming to the United States on a short-term visit for the purpose of lecturing, observing, consulting, training, or demonstrating special skills at research institutions, museums, libraries, post-secondary accredited educational institutions, or similar types of institutions.In addition to the language of the regulation itself, this may also be helpful when determining whether the short-term category is appropriate for the planned activities of the Exchange Visitor:
- The prospective Exchange Visitor cannot be a candidate for a tenure track position
- Prior participation in any J category may subject the prospective Exchange Visitor to a "12-month bar"
- Prior participation in the Professor or Research Scholar category may subject the prospective Exchange Visitor to a "24-month bar" on repeat participation
The maximum duration of stay as a Short-Term Scholar is 6 months. A short-term scholar may extend his or her stay up to the six-month maximum or transfer to another program within that period, but extensions beyond 6 months are not permitted. Short-term scholars are not subject to the three-week minimum length of program requirement to which most other Exchange Visitors are subject. And so, their stay can be anywhere from one day to six months. Participation in the short-term scholar category does not trigger the 12-month or 24-month bar restrictions; therefore this category would be ideal for a scholar who would like to be able to return on an annual basis to the U.S. without restriction.
- "Educators, scientists, research fellows, writers, museum administrators, librarians, and similar persons of recognized expertise are examples of participants appropriate for this category."
- "The goal of short-term scholar exchanges is to increase the velocity of the interchange of knowledge and skills and collaborative research efforts between foreign and American scholars. This may be accomplished by providing foreign scholars the opportunity to share ideas with their American colleagues, participate in educational and professional programs, confer on common problems and projects, and thereby promote improved professional relationships and communications."
- "...this category is intended only as a vehicle for short-term collaboration and interchange..."
In general, a change of category is not permitted. At the discretion of the U.S. Department of State, an exchange visitor may be permitted to change categories (i.e. change from a J-1 Research Scholar to J-1 Student). A change of category must be consistent with and related to the participant's original objective. Sometimes, a change in category is considered a change of objective and is not permitted. If the exchange visitor applies for a change in category and it is rejected by the U.S. Department of State, the exchange visitor is expected to leave the country within 30 days of receiving the notice or within 30 days of the expiration date of the exchange visitor's current DS-2019, whichever is later. An approved application for change of category should be received by the J-1 exchange visitor before the exchange visitor begins activities in the new category. The exchange visitor is considered to be in legal status while the application is under consideration by the U.S. Department of State.
Definition of "employment":
"Employment" is any type of work performed, or services provided in exchange for money, tuition, fees, books, supplies, room, or for any other benefit. If you receive no pay or other compensation for work performed, the activity is not defined as "employment, but is considered to be volunteer work."
The exchange visitor may receive compensation from the sponsor when the activities are part of the visitor's program. To work for any employer other than the school named on the DS-2019, you should make an appointment to see an international student advisor. The employment must be directly related to your program objectives, incidental to your program activities, and should not delay completion of your program. In addition, it must be approved by your department head or supervisor.
With the sponsor's permission, professors and research scholars may participate in occasional lectures and short-term consultations. These activities must be directly related to the objectives of the exchange visitor program, incidental to the exchange visitor's primary program activities, and not delay the completion date of the exchange visitors program.
The exchange visitor is prohibited from engaging in unauthorized employment. Engaging in unauthorized employment is in violation of the regulations and subjects the exchange visitor to termination from the program. One form of unauthorized employment is working or continuing to work without a valid DS-2019. In other words, any work performed after an DS-2019 has expired is unauthorized
Program Length
The maximum program length is 5 years. Please note that J-1 Exchange Visitors are required to leave the United States within 30 days of the date your department indicates you have completed your program, even if the period on your DS-2019 is longer.
Program Extensions within the 5 year program length
Requests for extensions are initiated by having your department complete and submit a new DS-2019 request form to the International Office. You should begin this process at least two months prior to the end date on your current DS-2019. Your extension will be processed at TIEC. Once your DS-2019 is completed, you may pick it up at the International Office.
Travel Outside the United States During Your Stay
Prior to traveling outside the U.S. with the intent to return in your current program status requires the signature of the RO or ARO in Austin. If you plan to travel outside the United States please notify the IO at least three weeks before you plan to leave so we can recommend what type of documentation you may need and so that there will be enough time to obtain the signature or documentation. When you travel outside the United States and you plan to return to the United States during the time of your J-1 program, you must take a properly endorsed DS-2019 with you. Under some circumstances it will be necessary for you to obtain a new DS-2019. If your visa and your DS-2019 are valid, it is likely that you will only need a signature of the RO or ARO on the back of your current DS-2019. Please bring your current DS-2019, passport, and I-94 card with you when you come to our office.
Limitation of Consecutive Program Participation
According to the DOS, an individual who has participated in the Exchange Visitor Program as a professor or researcher becomes subject to a two-year bar on "repeat participation" in those categories under two circumstances:i. If the exchange visitor completes a full five years of program participation with one or more sponsors; orii. If the exchange visitor completes a particular exchange visitor program, and the SEVIS record becomes Inactive before the full five-year period is over. In this case, the five-year window is "closed," the individual is not eligible to access the remaining unused time, and the individual must wait for two years before beginning a new program as a J professor or research scholar.The second circumstance subjects the participant to the two-year bar regardless of how much time he or she spent on the program.b) Application of Two-Year Bar to Participant Who Completed Programs Prior to SEVIS 5.4.
The 2-year bar will apply only to those who completed their program on or after the new rule becomes effective.c) When the Short-Term Scholar category can be used to avoid the two-year Bar?The maximum duration of stay as a short-term scholar is 6 months. Choosing to invite a visitor in the Short Term Scholar category rather than the Professor or Research Scholar categories may require making the expected duration of program participation more defined in advance of the exchange.d) Does this two-year bar replace the one-year bar?No. A former J-1 scholar is not eligible to begin an exchange program as a professor or research scholar based on a DS-2019 issued to begin a new program if he or she was physically present in any J status (including J-2 status) for all or part of the twelve month period immediately preceding the date of program commencement set for on his or her Form DS-2019. In this case, the 12-month bar is applicable. This general rule has three exceptions:· J-1 transfers· In J status for less than 6 months. (If he/she was in research scholar or professor category, he/she will be subject to a two-year bar)· In J status as a short-term scholar
The Two-Year Home-Country Physical Presence Requirement
Some J-1 exchange visitors and their J-2 dependents are subject to this requirement. Upon the completion of the J-1's program objectives, the J-1 and J-2(s) are expected to return to their country within 30 days or within 30 days of the expiration date on your DS-2019, whichever is sooner. If you are subject to this requirement, you are restricted from changing to some other types of nonimmigrant status, and restricted from changing to permanent residency. Under certain circumstances you may apply for a waiver of this requirement. Processing the application may take up to one year.
Note, if you receive a waiver, you are not permitted to apply for an extension of your DS-2019. Consequently, once the waiver is received, you should take steps to change to some other non immigrant status.It may take up to one year to receive a reply to a waiver application. Therefore, you should make sure that you have sufficient time indicated on your DS-2019 to apply for the waiver.
Health Insurance Requirement
Federal law requires that J-1 Exchange Visitors have health insurance for themselves and their J-2 dependents for the full duration of the J-1 program. The type of health insurance needed must meet specific coverage requirements. If you fail to obtain health insurance or if your health insurance does not meet the necessary requirements for you or your dependents, your J-1 sponsor must terminate your program and report the termination to the U.S. Department of State.
J-2 Dependents
In order to invite family members (i.e. husband, wife, or children) to join you on the J-2 visa you should submit an DS-2019 request form to International Office. After you pick up the DS-2019, you should send it to your dependents so that they may apply for a J-1 visa at a United States Embassy or Consulate.
J-2 dependents may apply for employment authorization with USCIS as long as the income from the employment is not needed to support the J-1 exchange visitor and his/her dependents. It normally takes from two to three months to receive employment permission (The Employment Authorization Document or EAD) or to renew employment permission. Therefore, applicants should plan accordingly in order to avoid undesired breaks in employment.
J-2 dependents who want to change to J-1 status must do so at least within 6 months of their initial arrival to the United States while the J-1 participant is still in the U.S. and in lawful J-1 status.
For more information please make an appointment to see a J-1 Exchange Visitor Advisor.
Reinstatement Procedures
If a J-1 exchange visitor violates his or her J-1 immigration status, it is possible to apply to be reinstated to lawful J-1 status in some cases. Reinstatement applications are approved or denied at the discretion of the U.S. Department of State. If a reinstatement application is not approved, the exchange visitor's program will be terminated and the exchange visitor will be required to leave the United States.
Prior to Arrival of Exchange Visitor to the U.S.
• The International Office will provide Exchange Visitors with arrival information to help them know what to do and where to go upon arrival in the U.S., including contact information for TIEC (name and telephone number of the RO/ARO) and other points of contact.
• The sponsor should arrange health insurance for Exchange Visitors if they are eligible to receive health insurance through Texas State, or make sure that they will arrange it in their home country. All J-1 Exchange Visitors are required by law to have health insurance for themselves and accompanying family members in J-2 Dependent status.

There are many companies that specialize in J-1 Exchange Visitor medical insurance. Below are some companies that offer plans which suit Exchange Visitor's needs. The International Office does not endorse any company and provides these links for informational purposes only.

The Communist Manifesto The Communist Manifesto is too long to be a concise declaration of principles and too short to be a book. It is comprised of about 17,000 words including various introductions by Friedrich Engels. It is arranged, basically, in four sections. The first section introduces the Marxian idea of history as a class struggle. It juxtaposes the conditions and development of various strata of society, "freeman and slave, patrician and plebian, lord and serf...in a word, oppressor and
The Communist Manifesto The communist Manifesto is the author's way of interpreting the goals of Communism, as well as the theory underlying this movement. Two major points of the manifesto explain how class relationships are defined by an era's means of production. Also, the manifesto incorporates how class struggles, or exploitation of one class by another, are motivating force behind all historical developments. If those two points are not followed then a revolution occurs and a new class
A Communist Society A communist society is very different than the society Americans find themselves living in today. Communism is a term of ancient origin and is not a form of political party, but a type of socialism where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Therefore, the individual members of this, foreign, society blend into one greater populist all striving to succeed the same goal. In a communist neighborhood everyone shares and there is no wealth, or poverty, no social
and Fredrich Engels wrote, Communist Manifesto, which is the documentation of the Communist party, published February 1848, in London. This is one of history's most influential literature pieces. This manifesto was written during a period known as "the hungry 1840's", which accounted to their ideas and theories (Boyer 151). The Communist Manifesto contained many challenging ideas that changed the mind set of every person even till this day. Their ideas led to the communist revolutions in Russia and
of governance which provides equality to all people. The word communism is derived from the word community which means that this type of governance takes the whole community when taking decisions. Theoretically, the rich do not get richer in a communist society and the poor do not get poorer. Moreover the state decides as to how the resources have to be allocated in the society. This is supposed to create a state of equality in the society because people do not have to fight for supreme power.
The Communist Manifesto Marx describes the problem in great detail in the first chapter. He feels there is a problem between the bourgeoisie and the proletarians. The bourgeoisie were the oppressed class before the French Revolution and he argues that they are now the oppressors. The proletarians are the new working class, which works in the large factory and industries. He says that through mass industry they have sacrificed everything from the old way of religion, employment, to a man's self
The rhetorical implications of Communist memorialization are intricate. Communism is both a personal (family) history and a collective (national/global) history. Each commemorative display in Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland and Germany are indicative to that particular country's role in Communism; their historicity is mainly dependent upon social, political, and artistic ideals that transform from one generation to another. Which, may lend reason to, why and what each of these countries chose to
The Communist Manifesto Karl Marx is living in a world he is not happy with, and seems to think that he has the perfect solution. I am a strong believer in his ideas. We are living in a time period with a huge class struggle. The Bourgroise exploits and the proletariat are being exploited. Marx did not like the way this society was and searched for a solution. Marx looked for "universal laws of human behavior that would explain and predict the future course of events" (36). He saw an
Karl Marx in his "Communist Manifesto" states that the wage gap will eventually result in revolutions of working class across the world, and consequently difference in classes will be vanished. Whereas, Robert Reich in "Why the Rich are Getting Richer and the Poor, Poorer" argues that American strategy of economic development, which is based on expansion of the production, will lead to collapse of American economy. Though, the poor people will suffer of various deprivations, wealthy people will

SHARJAH, UAE (CMC):West Indies head coach, Phil Simmons, said his players will use warm-up matches against English County Warwickshire this weekend to ramp up their fielding arsenal in preparation for the T20 World Cup starting next week in India.West Indies start a two-match series against Warwickshire tomorrow at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, after thrashing Zimbabwe 2-0 in a similar series which ended here on Monday."It's a case of making sure that we get back to a standard where people are afraid of us in the field, and we have the players that can put that fear into other people in the field," said Simmons."I think we, as a unit, have to make sure everybody is doing their job and if we can get it to that stage by the 16th then people will be in for a shock."The Caribbean side displayed solid batting in their confidence-boosting warm-up victories against Zimbabwe.However, Simmons expressed some reservations about their fielding, especially during their final match against the Zimbabweans where catches were dropped."I think we need to make sure that we are in the field, that we are getting to the ball and we are hitting stumps and things like that," he said."We dropped a few catches today … but we got to make sure that we are doing everything right by the time we leave here."UNBEATEN CENTURYThe former West Indies all-rounder says he was impressed with the unbeaten century stand for the first wicket between Johnson Charles and Andre Fletcher, which led them to a 10-wicket victory against Zimbabwe on Monday.He says competition for Chris Gayle's opening spot is healthy for the regional side."This was a much better wicket than two days ago and they showed what they are capable of doing," said Simmons."They are both in a way fighting for a spot as Chris Gayle has to come in, so it's good for them to show what they have and for us to know that if Chris is not there that we still have people who can do the job up top."West Indies are also scheduled to play warm-up matches against India and Australia next week.

Rice industry's decline negatively affecting business – GBTI's CEO
… bank celebrates 18 years of service in Region 2By Indrawattie NatramEssequibo Branch of Guyana Bank for Trade and Industry (GBTI) on Friday celebrated 18 years of service in Region Two (Pomeroon/Supenaam) with a grand reception for customers and employees.GBTI's staff at Anna Regina celebrating 18th AnniversaryThe reception, held on the lawns of the bank, was attended by CEO, John Tracy, manager of administration Sean Noel along with Region Two regional executive officer Rupert Hopkinson.Speaking at the reception the CEO said that the Anna Regina branch has grown over the years, noting however, that business has seen a significant decline since the dawn of 2016.Addressing customers and staff before the commencement of the reception, Tracy said that the decline of the rice industry – the backbone of Region Two, is having a negative effect on business.He explained that the strength of an economy often defines business for a bank, adding that the current state of the rice industry is a "thinning" time for the region.He however said the bank will stand with its customers during "thick or thin" to cushion the effect of the situation. Tracy said despite the challenges, the bank has recognised that the rice industry plays an important role in the growth of the banking sector.Meanwhile branch manager Dave Persaud during his address said the Anna Regina branch was opened on July 13, 1998 and for 18 years the branch has remained efficient and reliable in offering its service to the public: "We are always open to finding new, innovated ways to improve our service and as such we have launched two new products: GBTI Education Saving Plan, and GBTI Kick Start Education Loan Plan."In explaining the Education Saving Plan, he said it is specially designed to provide parents with the ability to save and make post-secondary education a reality for their children.The GBTI Kick Start Educational Loan Plan, he said, caters for potential and existing post-secondary education that gears to assist in tuition fees, books, accommodation and live-in expenses.The manager also took the opportunity to thank customers for choosing the bank as their choice.After the formal opening customers used the opportunity to interact and socialise with both management and staff of the financial institution.

Qantas flies higher with credit agency
A financial framework "that stands out among corporate and airline peers" has helped Qantas gain a coveted credit upgrade by ratings agency Moody's.Moody's announced Monday that the Australian carrier's credit rating has been upgraded from Baa3 to Baa2. Both ratings are investment grade."While we expect Qantas' credit metrics to remain fairly stable for the next 12-18 months, the upgrade reflects our greater focus on qualitative factors,'' Moody's vice president- senior credit officer Ian Chitterer said in the upgrade announcement. "This includes the unique traits of the Australian continent and airline market, Qantas Group's strong domestic position, and diversification provided by the loyalty program."We also factor in the reduction in credit risk through its hedging policy and financial framework. Working in tandem, they help to reduce earnings volatility and increase the predictability of management's response to market conditions.''Qantas earlier this month predicting another bumper full-year underlying pre-tax profit of $A1.35 billion to $A1.4 billion, making it the second highest in the airline's history.The airline said it had seen an improving performance from its domestic operations and a "slight moderation" in the challenging conditions facing it in the international market.Its forecast compared to an underlying profit of $A1.53 billion and a net profit of $1.03 billion in 2015-16.In its decision to upgrade Qantas, Moody's took into account the "unique" dynamics of the Australian market, including an airline duopoly with budget airline subsidiaries reducing the chances of a new domestic competitor and significant distances between cities.It noted Qantas had a domestic capacity share of 62 per cent and raked in 86 per cent of the available pre-tax earnings in the market."With its greater scale, far higher margins and a significantly stronger balance sheet, Qantas is in a very strong competitive position,'' it said.The upgrade also reflected the stable earnings of Qantas Loyalty, which accounted for about 20 per cent of group pre-tax eearnings in2016 with management predicting growth of 7 to 10 per cent for the next five years.Moody's also liked the airline's fuel hedging strategy because it reduced cash flow volatility and gave the business time to adjust fuel spikes."Qantas' publicly articulated financial framework stands out among corporate and airline peer,'' Moody's said. "The stipulation of maximum net debt levels and forward-looking nature of the framework will trigger pre-emptive actions in the event of sustained fuel-cost increases or operational weakness.''The credit agency said a further upgrade was considered unlikely unless Qantas changed its financial framework to target a debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) ratio of around two times but this was not expected.It would look at a downgrade if that same ratio exceeded three times but it noted it was expected to remain below this level.
Save lives, in Zenani's honour

Zindzi shows off the bangles that can be bought in support of the Zenani Campaign, with proceeds from sales going towards injury prevention programmes by the Road Safety Fund. (Images: The Road Safety Fund) MEDIA CONTACTS • Sam Monareng Dept of transport communications, media +27 12 309 3970 or +27 83 326 1521 RELATED ARTICLES • Think Pedestrian – and save lives • Cape Town's transport system lauded • R2.2bn upgrade for SA's rail system • Roadwork to create 400 000 jobsRay MaotaThe memory of Nelson Mandela's great-granddaughter Zenani Mandela will live on forever and, with a new campaign recently named in her honour, will help to bring down the number of road fatalities involving children around the world.The Zenani Campaign was launched on 2 May 2012 in New York, by her mother Zoleka and grandmother, Mandela's third daughter Zindzi.The city's mayor Michael Bloomberg hosted a South African delegation including South Africa's minister of transport, Sibusiso Ndebele, among others. The event was used to highlight the plight of traffic authorities globally who have the task of curbing road deaths.Zenani died in a car accident on the night of 10 June 2010 while travelling home with relatives after attending a concert that kick-started the Fifa World Cup in Johannesburg. She had just turned 13 two days before.Aims of the campaignThe campaign will fall under the UN Decade of Action for Road Safety initiative, which aims to improve the level of protection for children on roads mainly in developing countries.Among other goals, the UN campaign seeks to secure investment in safe footpaths, cycle-ways and crossing points on streets with lower speed limits, particularly around schools. It also aims to help implement new road legislation where required and encourage a bolder approach to road traffic law enforcement.Zenani will also be incorporated into the Mandela Day celebrations on 18 July 2012. On this day the world honours the Nobel Peace Prize laureate, and the event calls on everybody to tap into and realise the power they have to make a positive change in their communities around the globe.Speaking at the Zenani launch, Zindzi Mandela said: "I used to think that road casualties were just a tragic fact of life, about which nothing could be done."Demand protection for children on the roads, and let us ensure that in future, other families do not have to suffer the pain that my family has suffered."Zoleka Mandela also called for positive action."Other parents must not go through the pain that I am suffering and will continue to suffer. Every life we save will be a precious victory," she said."Every year almost 1.3-million people are killed and millions more injured on the world's roads – and many of those victims are children. That is simply unacceptable," said Bloomberg."There's a strong and growing network of organisations working around the world to implement proven interventions including tougher speeding, seat-belt and helmet rules and an increase in safe school crossings and more footpaths."The campaign, he said, was another positive step forward in the global effort to address this issue and save lives.According to Unicef's State of the World's Children 2012 report, road traffic injuries claim a disproportionate number of young lives in low and middle income countries.It is common for high speed roads to be routed close to schools or through residential areas, and therefore cities must be designed in a way that reduces risk to youngsters.Pedestrians are a priorityNdebele spoke about the potential benefit of the initiative for pedestrians."Pedestrians alone account for nearly 40% of road fatalities in our country annually," he said.He added that at the current rate, road crashes would be the number one killer of children aged between five and 14 in Africa by 2015, overtaking malaria and HIV.To curb this, the Department of Transport launched the Think Pedestrian campaign in April with the aim of stabilising and reducing road incidents by educating drivers and pedestrians about road safety.Driven globally by the UN, in South Africa the campaign is endorsed by logistics company Eqstra and the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory, in support of Mandela Day.Endorsement from international starsInternational stars like supermodel Naomi Campbell and F1 star Lewis Hamilton have endorsed the Zenani Campaign.Campbell, who is close to the Mandela family, said: "There are far too many children being killed, a thousand every day. The family will never get over the pain of her loss, and we'll never get Zenani back."But she was such a positive little girl that she would have wanted to make a difference. In memory of Zenani Mandela, I support this campaign. Lives can be saved, and we need action right now."Hamilton said that he supports the campaign because action is needed now to prevent more tragedies.How to get involvedTo get involved in the campaign one can become the eyes, ears and voice of the campaign by taking photos of unsafe streets and uploading them on the Make Roads Safe website.Supporters can also buy the Zenani wristband via the website, to show their solidarity with all victims of road crashes.All proceeds will be used to support road safety projects protecting children in developing countries.
A long and healthy life for all South Africans
NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN OUTCOME 2In 2030, South Africa's health system works for everyone. It provides quality care to all, has raised life expectancy to at least 70 years, produced a young generation largely free of HIV infection, and has dramatically reduced infant mortality. • Overview• Document downloads• Quality basic education• Health care for all• Safety & freedom from fear• Economy & employment• A skilled workforce• Economic infrastructure• Vibrant rural communities• Sustainable human settlements• Accountable local government• Natural environment• South Africa in the world• Efficient public service• Inclusive social protection• Nation building, social cohesion Health care – DownloadsFind out more about the National Development Plan.• National Development Plan – full text• National Development Plan – Chapter 11: Promoting health• Medium-Term Strategic Framework 2014 to 2019 – Outcome 2: A long and healthy life for all South Africans• Department of Health Strategic Plan 2014 to 2019• Infographic: Promoting health Health care – The visionA health system that works for everyone and produces positive health outcomes is not out of reach.The National Development Plan's vision is that, in 2030, life expectancy of South Africans is at least 70 years. A new generation of under-20s is largely free of HIV, and the burden of disease on the whole population has been significantly reduced.The infant mortality rate is less than 20 deaths per thousand live births, and under-5 mortality rate of less than 30 per thousand.In 2030:• The health system provides quality care to all, either free at the point of service or paid for by publicly provided or privately funded insurance.• The primary and district health system provides universal access with a focus on prevention, education, disease management and treatment.• Hospitals are be effective and efficient, providing quality secondary and tertiary care for those who need it.• More health professionals are on hand, especially in poorer communities.Health care – The challengesAfter South Africa achieved democracy in 1994, the country introduced progressive policies to create a new integrated and comprehensive national health system. Nonetheless, challenges remain.These include:• A complex, quadruple burden of diseases• Serious concerns about the quality of public health care• An ineffective and inefficient health system• Ineffective operational management at the coalface• Spiralling private health care costsQuality health care has mostly been accessible to those who can afford and access it, and not those who need it. Until recently, South Africa's performance against key health indicators has compared poorly with other countries with similar or less levels of investment and expenditure.Health care – Action requiredIn countries that have succeeded in reforming their health systems, committed leadership in all layers of the health system has been key.The government health system is responsible for maternal health, safe childbirth, vaccination and primary care of children, treatment of widespread infections such as HIV and Aids and tuberculosis, and acute care.Longer-term health outcomes are shaped by factors largely outside the health system: lifestyle, diet and nutritional levels, education, sexual behaviour, exercise, road accidents and the level of violence.The National Development Plan makes recommendations in all of these areas.Priorities include maternal and infant health, disease management, sex education, nutrition, exercise, and combating smoking and alcohol abuse.These are social responsibilities that must be taken seriously by every citizen, and promoted by families and institutions.Specific action includes:• Improved management, especially at institutional level• More and better-trained health professionals• Greater discretion over clinical and administrative matters at facility level, combined with effective accountability• Better patient information systems supporting more decentralised and home-based care models• A focus on maternal and infant health careImproving health care managementInstitutional health care management must change. Complementary reforms should include greater delegation of authority over staffing, shift structures and routine procurement.A district-based approach to primary health care is part of the pilot phase of national health insurance.The health system needs more personnel (including professionals and paramedics), new forms of management authority, and strengthened statutory structures for community representation.HIV and AidsDespite policy mismanagement in the early 2000s, the HIV and Aids epidemic has demonstrated South Africa's ability to effectively implement a wide-ranging and complex disease-management programme. The health system's remarkable success in managing the epidemic over recent years is commendable.But we must not be complacent. There is a continuing need for education, prevention, testing and treatment. Lowering the rate of new infections will reduce the demand on the public health system.Even if there are no new infections, there will still be a sizeable number of HIV-positive people requiring treatment, posing continuing challenges for the tuberculosis infection rate and the risk of drug-resistant HIV strains developing. The epidemic and its implications for public policy are likely to remain for at least another generation – possibly two.National health insuranceBuilding a national health insurance system is an important objective. There are four prerequisites to its success: improving the quality of public health care, lowering the relative cost of private care, recruiting more professionals in both the public and private sectors, and developing a health information system that spans public and private health providers. These reforms will take time, require cooperation between the public and private sectors.Health care – Key medium-term goals for 2019The Medium Term Strategic Framework (2014 to 2019) identifies the following sub-outcomes to achieve a long and healthy life for all South Africans.• Progressively achieve universal health coverage by means of national health insurance• Improve quality of health care• Re-engineer primary health care for better outcomes• Reduce health care costs• Improve human resources for health• Improve health management and leadership• Improve health facility planning and infrastructure delivery• Manage and prevent HIV & Aids and tuberculosis• Reduce maternal, infant and child mortality• Develop and implement an efficient health management information system for improved decision makingHealth care – Key medium-term targets for 2019The Medium Term Strategic Framework (2014 to 2019) identifies the following targets to achieve a long and healthy life for all South Africans.GRAPHIC: MARY ALEXANDER Researched, edited and compiled by Mary AlexanderUpdated December 2015

London Olympics: Mixed glory after doubles blow?
The Indian tennis contingent garnered a lot of unwanted publicity before the start of the games due to the selection mess. A lot of fans and experts alike questioned their ability to put the great Indian tennis spat behind them and get in with the job of winning a medal for the country… Unfortunately things haven't started off on the right note…The women's doubles team of Sania Mirza and Rushmi Chakravarthy crashed out in the first round to the pairing from Chinese Taipei… And while that was expected, the real cause of concern for the Indian tennis contingent is the slight injury worry for Sania Mirza…The French Open mixed doubles winner had her right knee heavily strapped and grimaced in pain on more then a few occassions on court 19, as she went for her trademark forehand winners.Speaking to us after the loss, Sania said, "The strapping on the knee is precautionary. I felt a bit of tightness during a practice session a couple of days ago and didn't want to take a chance…"Ray of hopeAnd talking of chance, India's real chance of picking up a tennis medal is in the mixed doubles… The signing in ceremony for the mixed doubles will take place on the 31st of July and the action starts from the 1st of August. Leander Paes and Sania Mirza might not have played together since their quarter final loss at the Commonwealth Games 2 years ago, but both have plenty of doubles experience to turn it on together when the situation demands.With both players comfortable playing on the forehand court, there was a bit of doubt as to how the two would gel together. But it seems the duo have sorted out this little problem, as sania explains… "Leander and I had a word about playing the forehand court and he's ok with me playing on the forehand side… Leander is such a great net player, it doesn't really matter which side he plays on".advertisement

Could these man-made structures be used as reef habitat too?
September 2011: Oil and gas platforms could be serving as beneficial habitats for commercially important fish populations such as cod and haddock, a marine ecologist has told the World Conference on Marine Biodiversity being held in Aberdeen.
If adequate knowledge is to be gained from the existing offshore platforms, there may also be potential for man-made structures like offshore platforms and installations for renewable energy to be used as reef habitat, Dr Toyonobu Fujii of the University of Aberdeen's Ocean Lab said.
The researcher has been analysing long-term bottom trawl survey data of fish distributions in relation to the installation history of offshore oil and gas platforms in the North Sea.
Commercially important species gather in numbers'There are currently no fewer than 500 offshore installations extracting oil and gas primarily from the continental shelf in the North Sea and, since the first installation, more and more researchers have been aware that a variety of commercially important fish species such as cod, haddock and saithe gather in substantial numbers around these artificial structures,' said Dr Fujji.
'Currently, all the offshore platforms and the safety zones around these platforms, combined, account for only 0.08 per cent of the surface area of the North Sea. However, the proportion of fish abundance estimated to aggregate around these structures was much higher than the surface area alone would suggest.
'We still don't know exactly why they are gathering there. It could be because there are more feeding opportunities or possibly because they provide places for them to shelter or hide.
Could be used as a nursery or breeding ground'But if they are using these habitats as nursery or spawning grounds then the implications of the physical presence of these structures could be important since such biological mechanisms strongly drive the future population dynamics of the fish.'
Dr Fujii says more research is needed into the causes and seasonal nature of such phenomena in association with artificial structures. He also wants to explore whether other fish species such as flatfish or pelagic fish such as mackerel show similar trends and are attracted to these sites.
'Given the magnitude of scales at which fish movement could be influenced by the offshore platforms, such knowledge will be of critical importance for future spatial management of seafloor as well as sustainable fisheries management, perhaps this is even more pertinent now with the expected expansion of offshore renewable energy developments.'

- 250g plain flour, plus a little more for dusting
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- ½ tsp fine salt
Combine the flour, vegetable oil and salt in a bowl. Pour over 150ml warm water and knead to bring the mixture together. Remove from the bowl and knead on a lightly floured work surface for around 5 mins until you make a soft, smooth ball of dough. Cover with a clean tea towel and rest for at least 15 mins before rolling out.
Cut the dough into 6 equal pieces (about 75g each). Roll out each ball of dough as thinly as possible on a floured work surface. They should make rounds about 20 cm wide, 2mm thick.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the tortillas for 1-2 mins on each side until golden brown and toasted. Wrap them in foil and cover in a tea towel to keep warm, while you cook the rest. Keeps for two days well wrapped, or cool, wrap and freeze for up to three months.

The over N5.3trillion pension funds in the custody of the National Pension Commission is safe and secured, Eguarekhide Longe, chairman, Pension Fund Operators Association of Nigeria (PenOp) has assured.
PenOp is an independent, non-governmental, non-political and non-profit making body established to promote the operations of the pension industry in the country.
Longe spoke at the weekend against the background of proposal by the Federal Government to invest the N5.3trillion pension funds on infrastructure finance.
The PenOp boss who is the Managing Director of AIICO Pension Managers Limited allayed fears that the pension funds were under some kind of threat.
"The guidelines are very clear. You can have an equity investment in infrastructure and you can have a fixed income investment in infrastructure, debts.

"Now, with debts the government owes you an obligation, which is not different from what we're doing currently with FGN bond. That is the direction that we have opted to engage government on with infrastructure," he said.
Speaking further, he said his team has since advised the Federal Government on the need to float specific bonds targeted at infrastructure finance.
Longe recalled that: "We said to them if you want to engage going forward, you can raise specific projects bonds fresh that you can invest in. And those bonds would be contractual. You will give us their interest, they give us the time of their liquidation and so on and so forth. So it's simply changing the FGN bonds to target basic infrastructure needs. That way you're protected as a subscriber. It is not different from what was been done before. We're not looking right now to engage on the equity channel."
While assuring that the fears of the pensioners are unfounded, he said: "The pension industry is an oasis of sanity in this country and we will never act in an irresponsible way because we also have our money there. So it's unfounded completely."

Hyderabad: It is treated as a sensitive zone for its variety of animal and bird species but Nehru Zoological Park closed ranks with major industrial clusters of Hyderabad such as Balanagar and Jeedimetla in terms of pollution levels.
The data collated by Telangana State Pollution Control Board (TSPCB) last year suggest the air quality recordings at the zoo marching ahead of not only the industrial clusters, but also dense traffic corridors and the hotspots such as Charminar, Paradise and Punjagutta.
In 2016, the zoo's air quality average — calculated using different parameters — stood at 131, while Balanagar logged in 125 and Pashamylaram 118. Traffic junctions Paradise recorded an average of 119 and Punjagutta stood at 108.
The ambient air quality is measured with basic parameters such as particulate matter (PM 10 and PM 2.5) and others such as Sulphur Oxides (SOx) and Nitrogen Oxide (NOx). As per the Air Quality Index (AQI), recordings between 101 and 200, though not red marked, are described as moderate with possible health effects of causing breathing discomfort for those with lung and heart diseases.
PCB officials attribute the high pollution levels at the zoo to its location on a dense highway traffic corridor and the large number of small and unorganised small industrial units in its vicinity.
"Apart from vehicular traffic, high presence of dust, burning of waste and construction debris contribute to pollution," said N Ravinder, Senior Environmental Scientist at PCB.
Almost 40 to 50 per cent of the deterioration in ambient air quality happens due to vehicular emissions, said PCB scientists. One aspect observed by them with data from the zoo monitoring station suggested a sharp rise in PM 2.5.
"This particulate matter is usually from diesel emissions," said an official, pointing out that there could be more diesel vehicles plying on the stretch. Complaints of indiscriminate burning of waste were common here and the presence of unorganised units added to the mess, the official said.
