Applications close on the 31 January 2014 GO Senior Management in Gozo team-building event GO plc, Malta's first quad play telecommunications services provider, organised a team-building event for the Senior Management team in Gozo. The activity began at GO's Exchange in Xewkija, where the Senior Management team had the opportunity to spend time with GO employees based there. After a four-hour treasure hunt packed with many tasks ending at Qbajjar, teams participated in a cooking competition where they had to prepare a given recipe and serve it to their colleagues for dinner. Ayrton Caruana, Head of Human Resources, at GO, said: "The event gave us an opportunity to strengthen internal corporate communications and Senior Management team work, away from the office. This should stand us in good stead in the months ahead as we seek to continually improve GO's operations and the quality of service we offer to customers."

Equazen eye q is an easy and convenient way to get a balanced intake of omega 6 and omega 3. It is well recognised that omega-3 DHA is a vital component of cell membranes, making up a large proportion of the brain as well as the retina of the eye. EPA is important from early childhood and throughout life, it carries signals between brain cells, thereby optimizing brain function. Eye q is an EPA rich formulation that contains a natural-source fish oil with the highest EPA to DHA ration possible. Rabat volleyball Club was formed three years ago by a group of friends, mostly made up of Rabat locals, which composed both the team and the Club committee. For the season 2013-2014 the Club is mostly composed of past volleyball players and other ex-volleyball volunteers. However, the Club proudly announces that it has secured the services of a new coach Mark Hili, who is well known in the volleyball world both locally and internationally and who will be heading the coaching staff. The Club's president message regards the new set up of the team, "I strongly believe that we have all the right ingredients to make up a winning team and I have full confidence in the commitment and sacrifice that the players and coaching staff are doing and moreover are willing to keep on doing" Marketing Manager Of NM Arrigo, Francesca Arrigo continued on this note and is aware that the success of the team to succeed is dependant on the individual mind sets of the players, also outlined the importance of Sport in today's society to generate a healthy functioning society.
