Food and nutrition security are the basic requirements for human resource development. By food and nutrition security, physical and economic access of food and nutrition to all sections of the society is meant. Food and nutrition security is integral to livelihood security in terms of capabilities, assets and activities required for living. Thus, food security is a priority concept in developmental economy.

THAT the Scots are a comparatively illiterate people is as obvious and shiny as your nose. Well, all right, my nose. You can experience this phenomenom - the illiteracy, not my nose - when footballers are interviewed after games, or our children appear on television, or if you ever have the misfortune to read internet comments.
If the footballers are representative of our proletariat, then we can only give thanks that Karl Marx's plan to bring them (the proletariat, not the footballers) to power never saw fruition. I don't know why this is. Foreign players of all nationalities speak eloquently enough, even given unfamiliarity with the language.

Today, globalization impacts customers and the management mindset in profound ways. Today, the term "Great Game" connotes a new geopolitical outlook for markets, technologies, and customers. This paper addresses these issues and their impact on management education and development strategies for Canada and Canadians. As Canada enters the second decade of the 21st century, it is instructive to look ahead and consider a possible change in direction. Globalization accounts for the emergence of business schools around the world, a phenomenon that reflects -- and that many countries hope, will enable them to replicate -- the pre-eminent US experience. Canadian business schools increasingly lack a critical mass of faculty in key disciplines such as accounting or marketing, and feature too muc...
