The game is played on a rectangular field of grass or green artificial turf, with a goal in the middle of each of the short ends. The object of the game is to score by driving the ball into the opposing goal. In general play, the goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands or arms, while the field players typically use their feet to kick the ball into position, occasionally using their torso or head to intercept a ball in midair. The team that scores the most goals by the end of the match wins. If the score is tied at the end of the game, either a draw is declared or the game goes into extra time and/or a penalty shootout, depending on the format of the competition.

The Laws of the Game published in England by the Football Association in 1863 remain the basis for the way the sport is played today. Football is governed internationally by FIFA which organises the World Cup every four years.

Game Play:-

Football is played in accordance with a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game. The game is played using a single spherical ball, known as the football. Two teams of eleven players each compete to get the ball into the other team’s goal (between the posts and under the bar), thereby scoring a goal. The team that has scored more goals at the end of the game is the winner; if both teams have scored an equal number of goals then the game is a draw. Each team is led by a captain.

The primary law is that players other than goalkeepers may not deliberately handle the ball with their hands or arms during play, though they do use their hands during a throw-in restart. Although players usually use their feet to move the ball around, they may use any part of their bodies other than their hands or arms. Within normal play, all players are free to play the ball in any direction and move throughout the pitch, though the ball cannot be received in an offside position.

In typical game play, players attempt to create goal-scoring opportunities through individual control of the ball, such as by dribbling, passing the ball to a team-mate, and by taking shots at the goal, which is guarded by the opposing goalkeeper. Opposing players may try to regain control of the ball by intercepting a pass or through tackling the opponent in possession of the ball; however, physical contact between opponents is restricted. Football is generally a free-flowing game, with play stopping only when the ball has left the field of play or when play is stopped by the referee for an infringement of the rules. After a stoppage, play recommences with a specified restart.

At a professional level, most matches produce only a few goals. For example, the 2005–06 season of the English Premier League produced an average of 2.48 goals per match. The Laws of the Game do not specify any player positions other than goalkeeper, but a number of specialised roles have evolved. Broadly, these include three main categories: strikers, or forwards, whose main task is to score goals; defenders, who specialise in preventing their opponents from scoring; and midfielders, who dispossess the opposition and keep possession of the ball in order to pass it to the forwards on their team. Players in these positions are referred to as outfield players, in order to distinguish them from the single goalkeeper. These positions are further subdivided according to the area of the field in which the player spends most time. For example, there are central defenders, and left and right midfielders. The ten outfield players may be arranged in any combination. The number of players in each position determines the style of the team’s play; more forwards and fewer defenders creates a more aggressive and offensive-minded game, while the reverse creates a slower, more defensive style of play. While players typically spend most of the game in a specific position, there are few restrictions on player movement, and players can switch positions at any time. The layout of a team’s players is known as a formation. Defining the team’s formation and tactics is usually the prerogative of the team’s manager.

History:-

The modern rules of football are based on the mid-19th century efforts to standardise the widely varying forms of football played at the public schools of England.

The Cambridge Rules, first drawn up at Cambridge University in 1848, were particularly influential in the development of subsequent codes, including association football. The Cambridge Rules were written at Trinity College, Cambridge, at a meeting attended by representatives from Eton, Harrow, Rugby, Winchester and Shrewsbury schools. They were not universally adopted. During the 1850s, many clubs unconnected to schools or universities were formed throughout the English-speaking world, to play various forms of football. Some came up with their own distinct codes of rules, most notably the Sheffield Football Club, formed by former public school pupils in 1857, which led to formation of a Sheffield FA in 1867. In 1862, John Charles Thring of Uppingham School also devised an influential set of rules.

These ongoing efforts contributed to the formation of The Football Association (The FA) in 1863, which first met on the morning of 26 October 1863 at the Freemasons’ Tavern in Great Queen Street, London. The only school to be represented on this occasion was Charterhouse. The Freemason’s Tavern was the setting for five more meetings between October and December, which eventually produced the first comprehensive set of rules. At the final meeting, the first FA treasurer, the representative from Blackheath, withdrew his club from the FA over the removal of two draft rules at the previous meeting: the first allowed for running with the ball in hand; the second for obstructing such a run by hacking (kicking an opponent in the shins), tripping and holding. Other English rugby football clubs followed this lead and did not join the FA, or subsequently left the FA and instead in 1871 formed the Rugby Football Union. The eleven remaining clubs, under the charge of Ebenezer Cobb Morley, went on to ratify the original thirteen laws of the game. These rules included handling of the ball by “marks” and the lack of a crossbar, rules which made it remarkably similar to Victorian rules football being developed at that time in Australia. The Sheffield FA played by its own rules until the 1870s with the FA absorbing some of its rules until there was little difference between the games.

Today, football is played at a professional level all over the world. Millions of people regularly go to football stadiums to follow their favourite teams, while billions more watch the game on television or on the internet. A very large number of people also play football at an amateur level. According to a survey conducted by FIFA published in 2001, over 240 million people from more than 200 countries regularly play football. While football has the highest global television audience in sport, its simple rules and minimal equipment requirements at amateur level, have no doubt aided its growth in terms of participation.

In many parts of the world football evokes great passions and plays an important role in the life of individual fans, local communities, and even nations. The Côte d’Ivoire national football team helped secure a truce to the nation’s civil war in 2006 and it helped further reduce tensions between government and rebel forces in 2007 by playing a match in the rebel capital of Bouaké, an occasion that brought both armies together peacefully for the first time. By contrast, football is widely considered to be the final proximate cause in the Football War in June 1969 between El Salvador and Honduras. The sport also exacerbated tensions at the beginning of the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, when a match between Dinamo Zagreb and Red Star Belgrade devolved into rioting in March 1990.

Laws

There are seventeen laws in the official Laws of the Game. The same laws are designed to apply to all levels of football, although certain modifications for groups such as juniors, seniors, women and people with physical disabilities are permitted. The laws are often framed in broad terms, which allow flexibility in their application depending on the nature of the game. The Laws of the Game are published by FIFA, but are maintained by the International Football Association Board (IFAB), not FIFA itself. In addition to the seventeen laws, numerous IFAB decisions and other directives contribute to the regulation of football. The most complex of the laws is offside. The offside law limits the ability of attacking players to receive the ball when closer to the opponent’s goal line than: the ball itself; the second-to-last defending player (which can include the goalkeeper); and the half-way line.

Chapter Three: Accomplishing Your Dreams

I’m going to begin this article by asking one question: When are you going to take action? This is now the third article I, Timothy Ryan Patton, have written for this Web site. This is going to be the final article. If this is your first article of mine, second time, or third time reading an article written by me, I’d like to say thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to read these words of inspiration. I want you to know that I am writing this article. I am going to answer any question you have about any issue, any problem, anything you may be confused about, or any simple question you may have. Remember, there is no dumb question. The only dumb thing would be not asking your question. If you don’t ask questions you can’t continue growing and that is what is all about, growing each and everyday, learning something new, and becoming a stronger, more knowledgeable person. Just write me at the business e-mail address and I will be sure to get back to you asap and get your questions answered. Thank you for understanding how powerful questions are. You are going to do whatever it takes to begin Achieving Your Promises. You are going to do whatever it takes! You are not going to let anything stop you. I hope that is why you are reading this article.

I have had over 3000 visitors to my Web site and still no one has purchased the book. I have a lot of people tell me there interested in getting a copy. Every single person I come in contact with says they’re going to get a copy of the book Achieving Your Promises. I have a list of over 40 people that I am going to contact today letting them know that I will have the book in my hand by the end of November. I have been through the writing, which took four months, the editing, which took eight months, the proofreading, which took two months, the formatting, which took two months, and the complete PDF document has been in my hands the past two months.

I have been searching for a printer the past two months. The printer now has the PDF, they have been given the payment information, and now the printer is working on getting in contact with the cover designer. This is such a long, complicated process. I am a warrior and I am willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES TO ACHIEVE MY PROMISES!!!

My #1 promise is to become a Billionaire with Billion Dollars. I have a vision and in that vision I have a 40,000 square foot home in Denver, CO., mountains are behind the house, three swimming pools in back, 20 ft. deep, four tennis courts, two basketball courts, a carnival with at least 50 rides, this house is on 10-30 acres of land, the house has a black fence all the way around it, I have a wife, with three to six children, seven butlers, 12 maids, a red Hummer limo, 25 cars, 25 SUV’s, 35 yachts, I’m on TV, I own a Boeing Jet 656 (45 million), I own a helicopter and 50 single family homes. I realize it’s not all about me though. I am all about giving to others in need. I will have a passive income greater than 0,000 per month and I will be helping out all those people in need. I want to help others in need. I don’t believe I talk…actually I do talk about my two trips to Honduras in the beginning of the book, chapter one. That was an amazing experience. If you haven’t been to a third world country to realize that you have so much more compared to everyone else, that is something you want to do ASAP.

Now, to get on to the short article for chapter three, Accomplishing Your Dreams. At the beginning of every chapter and all throughout the book I have quotes from famous people. I will begin this article for the first time giving you a quote.

“When you face your fear, most of the time you will discover that it was not really such a big threat after all. We all need some form of deeply rooted, powerful motivation — it empowers us to overcome obstacles so we can live our dreams.” – Les Brown

I’m in such a good mood today, I’ll give you the first TWO chapters this time, not one but two. Here they are:

What self-limiting behaviors do you have that keep you from success? What will allow you to overcome the obstacles that keep you from living your dream? The three most important things within everyone are your mindset, your attitude, and your energy level. If you don’t have the right mindset, don’t have a positive attitude, and only remain focused on all the negative things in the world, you need to make a drastic change in your life.

What is a mindset and how do you change it? Mindset is an approach or way of thinking about the world or your surroundings. Your mindset is how you view the world and other people around you. It’s everything going on up inside your head. You can have a mindset focused on all the negative things in the world or you can be focused on the positive things happening around you. You can be focused on dying or you can have your mind focused on living a long, prosperous, wealthy lifestyle. It is your total, overall state of mind or outlook. Your mindset is a very powerful tool that can impact your future and can determine your personal peak potential.

You have now been given the introduction, which you can read over and over for free at the Web site, part of the first, second, and third chapters of the book. All you have to do is sign up for the e-mail list on the right hand side of the page to receive all three chapters in completion. Why is it that only 13 people have signed up for that list so far? Why haven’t you signed up yet? Why haven’t you expressed an interest in purchasing the book? Are you satisfied working 40 hours per week or working at an hourly rate? Do you really believe that working a J.O.B. is going to bring you to the place financially where you want to be at age 35, 45, 55, or 65?

GEOGRAPHY

The Mayan empire lasted from 1000 B.C. to A.D. 900. It reached it’s height at around A.D. 300. It was located in the tropical rain forests pf Guatemala and western Honduras. The terrain was rough and rocky jungles and mountain slopes.   

RELIGION AND BELIEFS

The Mayans were a polytheistic culture. They believed in human and animal sacrifices. The sacrifices were performed be priests on top of temples to the gods. They loved jungle cats and thought that the world was created on August 11, 3114 B.C. (I bet it started as a joke). They also built some ceremonial cities. They also thought that you looked good if your head kept slanting along with your nose and you were cross eyed with sharp teeth (they would file them into points). As you can see people’s taste has changed a lot over time.

GOVERNMENT

The Mayan empire was made up of around 200 city states (a political power consisting of an urban city surrounded by farmland) which added up to about 12-16 million total people at its height. Different cities fought each other for prisoners to sacrifice. The empire had a warrior king. There were 2 different classes- the nobles (upper class) and the peasants (lower class). They also had some other “levels/importance” of people like king, priests, and some others.

ARCHITECTURE

The Mayans were such successful architects that they built 20 story buildings. They were made out of bricks and they used stone tools not metal ones. They built ziggurat like pyramids (different stories that got smaller as you went up a floor) that had temples on the top of them for human and animal sacrifice. They also built public squares/plazas and large palaces.

TECHNOLOGY AND INVENTIONS

The Mayans were a very advanced civilization. They made 2 calendars- a solar calendar used for harvesting and planting crops with 365 days, and a religious calendar for marking ceremonies that had 260 days. They also could predict lunar eclipses. Their centuries had 52 years. They also had the ability to use the wheel but the rugged terrain and the wheel didn’t work so well together. Also they had a very advanced knowledge of astronomy. Their written language was a hieroglyphic style of writing.

Now you hopefully know a little bit more about the Mayan civilization than you did before.

Basic Ingredients of the Bahamian Economy

The Bahamian economy is almost entirely dependent on tourism and financial services to generate foreign exchange earnings. Tourism alone provides an estimated 60% of the gross domestic product (GDP) and employs about half the Bahamian work force. In 2004, over 5 million tourists visited The Bahamas, most of whom are from the United States.

A major contribution to the recent growth in the overall Bahamian economy is Kerzner International’s Atlantis Resort and Casino, which took over the former Paradise Island Resort and has provided a much needed boost to the economy. In addition, the opening of Breezes Super Club and Sandals Resort also aided this turnaround. The Bahamian Government also has adopted a proactive approach to courting foreign investors and has conducted major investment missions to the Far East, Europe, Latin America, and Canada. The primary purpose of the trips was to restore the reputation of The Bahamas in these markets.

Financial services constitute the second-most important sector of the Bahamian economy, accounting for up to 17% of GDP, due to the country’s status as an offshore financial center. As of December 1998, the government had licensed 418 banks and trust companies in The Bahamas. The Bahamas promulgated the International Business Companies (IBC) Act in January 1990 to enhance the country’s status as a leading financial center. The act served to simplify and reduce the cost of incorporating offshore companies in The Bahamas. Within 9 years, more than 84,000 IBC-type companies had been established. In February 1991, the government also legalized the establishment of Asset Protection Trusts in The Bahamas. In December 2000, partly as a response to appearing the plenary FATF Blacklist, the government enacted a legislative package to better regulate the financial sector, including creation of a Financial Intelligence Unit and enforcement of “know-your-customer” rules. Other initiatives include the enactment of the Foundations Act in 2004 and the planned introduction of legislation to regulate Private Trust Companies.

See also: Agriculture in the Bahamas

Agriculture and fisheries industry together account for 5% of GDP. The Bahamas exports lobster and some fish but does not raise these items commercially. There is no largescale agriculture, and most agricultural products are consumed domestically. The Bahamas imports more than 0 million in foodstuffs per year, representing about 80% of its food consumption. The government aims to expand food production to reduce imports and generate foreign exchange. It actively seeks foreign investment aimed at increasing agricultural exports, particularly specialty food items. The government officially lists beef and pork production and processing, fruits and nuts, dairy production, winter vegetables, and mariculture (shrimp farming) as the areas in which it wishes to encourage foreign investment.

The Bahamian Government maintains the value of the Bahamian dollar on a par with the U.S. dollar. The Bahamas is a beneficiary of the U.S.-Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act (CBTPA), Canada’s CARIBCAN program, and the European Union’s Lome IV Agreement. Although the Bahamas participates in the political aspects of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), it has not entered into joint economic initiatives with other Caribbean states.

The Bahamas has a few notable industrial firms: the Freeport pharmaceutical firm, PFC Bahamas (formerly Syntex), which recently streamlined its production and was purchased by the Swiss pharmaceutical firm Roche; the BORCO oil facility, also in Freeport, which transships oil in the region; the Commonwealth Brewery in Nassau, which produces Heineken, Guinness, and Kalik beers; and Bacardi Corp., which distills rum in Nassau for shipment to the U.S. and European markets. Other industries include sun-dried sea salt in Great Inagua, a wet dock facility in Freeport for repair of cruise ships, and mining of aragonite–a type of limestone with several industrial uses– from the sea floor at Ocean Cay.

The Hawksbill Creek Agreement established a duty-free zone in Freeport, The Bahamas’ second-largest city, with a nearby industrial park to encourage foreign industrial investment. The Hong Kong-based firm, Hutchison Whampoa, has opened a container port in Freeport. The Bahamian Parliament approved legislation in 1993 that extended most Freeport tax and duty exemptions through 2054.

The Bahamas is largely an import, service economy. There are about 110 U.S.-affiliated businesses operating in The Bahamas, and most are associated with tourism and banking. With few domestic resources and little industry, The Bahamas imports nearly all its food and manufactured goods from the United States. American goods and services tend to be favored by Bahamians due to cultural similarities and heavy exposure to American advertising.

Secondary industries

Manufacturing

In 1999, the small industrial sector of the Bahamas only made up about 5 percent of the nation’s GDP and 5 percent of employment. Government infrastructure projects and private construction provide the main industrial activity. The 1 shipyard in the Bahamas is at Freeport and it specializes in the repair of passenger or cruise ships. There is limited production of minerals. Sand is dredged off the Bahamas Bank and used for limestone and the production of commercial sand, which supply the local construction industry. There is also limited production of salt for export to the United States. Large-scale oil refining began in 1967 with the installation of a large refinery on Grand Bahama with a daily capacity of 500,000 barrels, but by 2000 no oil was being refined.

The pharmaceutical company, PFC Bahamas, produces a small quantity of products for export and the oil company, BORCO, has a refinery in the islands, but these are individual enterprises and do not represent any large industrial presence. There is a substantial brewing industry. Companies such as Bacardi, Inc., distill rum and other spirits in the islands, while other international breweries such as Commonwealth Brewery, produce different beers including the Heineken, Guinness, and Kalik brands.

Construction

The construction industry seemed to peak in 1998 with the completion of several new resorts. By 1999, new construction projects had fallen by 15.9 percent, with 817 continuing commercial projects valued at US3 million. However, private housing completions were up by 18.3 percent with a value of US2.1 million. This reflects an increasing demand for more upscale housing in the nation.

Tertiary industries

Tourism

Tourism dominates the Bahamian economy. In 1999, 3.65 million people visited the islands, with 2.2 million of them arriving by cruise ship. Revenue from tourism made up 60 percent of the nation’s GDP. The average tourist spent US8 while vacationing in the Bahamas, and tourist spending overall amounted to US.5 billion. In 2000, there were about 81,700 people employed in the tourist industry. Most visitors are from the United States (83 percent in 1999). However, in recent years the number of European tourists has increased by 9 percent.

The largest resort in the island is the 2,340 room Atlantis mega-resort, which is owned by Sun International. It employs 5,500 people and is the second largest employer in the nation after the government. Other major resorts in the islands include Club Med (popular with the French), Sandals (attracting the British), and Holiday Inn. The Grand Bahama Development Company plans to spend US million upgrading airport and cruise ship facilities to accommodate an additional 555,000 visitors per year.

Although the majority of the tourist industry in the Bahamas has been driven by private enterprise, the Bahamian government did own 20 percent of the hotel accommodations in 1992. Privatization programs since that time have reduced the government holdings to 5 percent.

All major cruise lines operate services to the Bahamas. To extend the stay of passengers, the government has enacted legislation that allows ships to open their casinos and stores only if they remain in port for more than 18 hours.

Financial services

The financial services sector is the second chief component of the Bahamian economy. In 1998, this sector added US0 million to the economy today employs 4,900 people, accounting for some 17 percent of the GDP. Government legislation has also encouraged the formation of International Business Companies, Foundations and Private Trust Companies.

Retail

Thanks to the tourist trade, retail companies prosper in the Bahamas. There is a strong preference for recognizable name-brand products, and major American brands do well in the islands. However, the government requires that retail and wholesale businesses be Bahamian-owned.

Business environment

The Bahamas offers attractive features to the potential investor: a stable democratic environment, relief from personal and corporate income taxes, timely repatriation of corporate profits, proximity to the U.S. with extensive air and telecommunications links, and a good pool of skilled professional workers. The Government of The Bahamas welcomes foreign investment in tourism and banking and has declared an interest in agricultural and industrial investments to generate local employment, particularly in white-collar or skilled jobs. Despite its interest in foreign investment to diversify the economy, the Bahamian Government responds to local concerns about foreign competition and tends to protect Bahamian business and labor interests. As a result of domestic resistance to foreign investment and high labor costs, growth can stagnate in sectors which the government wishes to diversify.

The country’s infrastructure is best developed in the principal cities of Nassau and Freeport, where there are relatively good paved roads and international airports. Electricity is generally reliable, although many businesses have their own backup generators. In Nassau, there are two daily newspapers, three weeklies, and several international newspapers available for sale. There also are eight radio stations. Both Nassau and Freeport have a television station. Cable TV also is available locally and provides most American programs with some Canadian and European channels.

Areas of opportunity

The best U.S. export opportunities remain in the traditional areas of foodstuffs and manufactured goods: vehicles and automobile parts; hotel, restaurant, and medical supplies; and computers and electronics. Bahamian tastes in consumer products roughly parallel those in the U.S. With approximately 85% of the population of primarily African descent, there is a large and growing market in the Bahamas for “ethnic” personal care products. Merchants in southern Florida have found it profitable to advertise in Bahamian publications. Most imports in this sector are subject to high but nondiscriminatory tariffs.
