Estrada returns early to fight for starting job
SAN FRANCISCO -- Right-hander Marco Estrada expected to spend two weeks on the disabled list with the left hamstring strain that struck in June. Two months later, he is finally ready to pitch.
Estrada will be activated from the DL to start for the Brewers against the Giants on Wednesday night in place of Tom Gorzelanny, who is dealing with the effects of a bruised elbow. Estrada's pitch count will be limited because he only made two Minor League rehabilitation starts, throwing 47 pitches in his most recent outing for Triple-A Nashville.
Infielder Scooter Gennett was optioned to Nashville after Tuesday's 3-1 victory in San Francisco to open a roster spot.
What is at stake for Estrada in what remains of the regular season?
"My job," he said after arriving at AT&T Park on Tuesday afternoon. "I mean, I don't see why it wouldn't be. It's been two months since I've pitched. I've got to show them I can still do it. I've been keeping up with guys and I see that everyone is pitching really well now. Obviously I've got to fight for my job, and hopefully, they like what they see."
The Brewers liked Estrada so much in 2012, when he posted a 3.64 ERA in 29 appearances (23 starts) that they lined him up to pitch the second game of 2013. But he pitched to a 5.32 ERA in his first 12 starts before suffering a strained hamstring in a June 3 start against the A's.
His role for 2014 is up in the air. Estrada is earning $1.955 million this season and will be arbitration-eligible for the second time.
"It's important for him to finish up well," Brewers manager Ron Roenicke said. "We know he can also go to the bullpen, but it's important for him to finish up well if he wants to continue starting, to show us what he did last year. It's different this year. I don't know why, but it's different."
Estrada is used to fighting for his job. Before this past spring, he had never been assured a spot in a professional starting rotation.
"I've been dealing with it my entire life," Estrada said. "Last year was probably the first time I felt like I was going to be OK [in terms of having a roster spot], and even this season I felt like I was going to be OK. But with this injury now, you start thinking about it. I'm trying not to think about it too much, but it's there. I know I've got to come out and do my job, and if they don't think I'm ready then who knows what's going to happen? But hopefully I show them that I'm ready to pitch here and hopefully they'll want me here."
Estrada's return from the DL was delayed by back tightness, but on Tuesday he declared himself fit to pitch. He was supposed to make one more Triple-A start Wednesday, but the Brewers accelerated the schedule in the wake of Gorzelanny's injury.
Gorzelanny will rejoin the rotation when he is ready, Roenicke said, instead of going back to the bullpen. Gorzelanny is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, and the result will dictate where he is slotted back into the rotation, probably at Donovan Hand's or Tyler Thornburg's expense.
"I think [Gorzelanny] is a possibility for next year, and the more we see of him right now, it's easier for us to make a decision on next year," Roenicke said.

The Rockefeller Foundation gets ahead of the game with their HR & Salary Planning!
Learn how Rockefeller gets ahead of the game with their HR & Salary Planning seamlessly with CCH Tagetik on the cloud!
The user experience was not great in Clarity, it lagged a little bit, it didn't save very quickly and it wasn't very dynamic.
A major pain point for our users before CCH Tagetik was their user experience.
The solution that we had prior wasn't as responsive, we didn't have local currencies that we could plan or do reporting.
Currently, we are using CCH Tagetik to do the HR and Salary Planning, which is great because its very flexible: we can add employees, remove employees, add a bunch of different KPIs and factors, I can really change the plan for the entire year.
Another plan that we do is IT/capital, so you have it separate we combine the two, we do capital purchases for the year and it's great, because the actuals always come through, we update our actuals every 20 minutes so, we have very up-to-date data that our IT department can use to forecast or budget for the rest of the year.
The most impressive thing with the implementation of CCH Tagetik was the performance of the system, as well as the flexibility of the system.
Being a very dynamic organization we're required to make changes to reports that sometimes have to design very simple or very complex reports… but CCH Tagetik allowed us to do such things.
Another big one is how easy the system is to learn, Our IT department is not involved at all, we've essentially taken ownership of the system, so whenever you want to make changes or adjust any data feeds or ETL … we just do it ourselves.
CCH Tagetik has allowed us to reduce our user input time by 50%.
Since we've started using it, the accurate and timeliness of data has been a huge benefit, simply because we can control how often the data comes in and since CCH Tagetik allows you to drill through, drill down, and array of different options … it really allows us to make sure that everything is as accurate as possible.
Since implementing CCH Tagetik, we were able to reduce our closing time by 20% every single month.
We deployed CCH Tagetik on the cloud because of all the benefits that it entails.
I'm a big believer of … the people that created the system should also host the system because they just know the best environment that the system could be in, and also the fact that we're patched up regularly, we're updated regularly and … a systems person, if you fall behind on patches or upgrades… it can become very costly.
So that's a great benefit to have.
The CFO benefits with CCH Tagetik because she is confident that the data that were sharing with the rest of the organization, as well as outside parties, is accurate and timely.
We have many ways of validating and checking data because of CCH Tagetik.
Yes, I would recommend CCH Tagetik to everybody.

If we do the following work on the hall there is a very high chance we can bring the capacity up to 100-120.
1. Doors to church changed to fire doors
2. Door to office (next to hall) from landing changed to fire door
3. Doors to balconies changed to fire doors (Does not NEED to be done, but will help our case) They will need to be done if we want to use the balconies for studios etc.
4. Glass to the left (when standing in hall) of the church doors boarded up. Plasterboard.
5. Emergency maintained (wired with battery backup) lighting:
1 above church doors.
1 somewhere in hall. perhaps around the bar as that is the darkest spot.
1 top of landing before you enter the hall.
1 half way up stairs from ground floor.
1 top of landing before you enter the balconies.
1 half way up the stairs to the balconies.
1 above either set of balcony doors. Again this work is not required, but will help our case.
6. Fire alarm:
Extend warning system into hall.
Addition of smoke detection in the hall.
Additional break point in hall. Above fire extinguishers.
1. Change doors by pigeon holes to fire doors.
2. Change door to office in foyer to fire door.
3. Change door to flavins office to fire door.
4. Board up windows to flavins office. Plasterboard
5. Fix door in office so there is no gap at bottom.
6. Change door to workshop to fire door.
7. Certify fire alarm system.
It might look like a lot of work, but really it should not take more than a week. Especially if we have the fighting force from the US.
Cost wise the most expensive thing will be the fire doors. Roughly £180 each. Maybe I can get a deal through my building pals. Perhaps £3k at a very rough estimate for materials. Not including fire alarm certification.

Health Indicator Report of Asthma-related Emergency Department (ED) Visits
Asthma can usually be managed in an outpatient setting, reducing the need for emergency department visits. Tracking rates of emergency department visits can aid in identifying populations or areas with inadequate access to routine medical care. An asthma attack can necessitate an emergency department visit and can be initiated by a variety of triggers. Some of these include exposures to environmental tobacco smoke, dust mites, cockroach allergen, mold, pets, strenuous physical exercise, and air pollution. Two key air pollutants that can affect asthma are ozone (found in smog) and PM or particulate matter (found in haze, smoke, and dust). The majority of problems associated with asthma, including emergency department visits, are preventable if asthma is managed according to established guidelines. Effective management includes control of exposures to factors that trigger exacerbations, adequate pharmacological management, continual monitoring of the disease, and patient education in asthma care.
Asthma-related Emergency Department Visit Average Charge per Visit by Local Health District, Utah, 2014
Asthma-related Emergency Department Visit Average Charge per Visit by Local Health District, Utah, 2014
NotesThe ICD-9 code used to define asthma is 493. All ED encounters are included in the presented data, which includes those that were treat and release visits, as well as those that resulted in hospital admission. Prior to 2015 San Juan County was part of the Southeast Local Health District. In 2015 the San Juan County Local Health District was formed. Data reported are for all years using the current boundaries.

DenominatorRate: Utah Population. [[br]] Number: Not applicable.
Healthy People Objective RD-3:Reduce emergency department (ED) visits for asthma
U.S. Target: Not applicable, see subobjectives in this category
Other ObjectivesHealthy People 2020 subobjectives and targets for RD-3: Reduce emergency department (ED) visits for asthma: RD-3.1: Children under age 5 years * '''U.S. Target:''' 95.7 ED visits per 10,000 * '''Utah Target:''' 46.7 ED visits per 10,000 [[br]] RD-3.2: Children and adults aged 5 to 64 years * '''U.S. Target:''' 49.6 ED visits per 10,000 * '''Utah Target:''' 21.2 ED visits per 10,000 [[br]] RD-3.3: Adults aged 65 years and older * '''U.S. Target:''' 13.7 ED visits per 10,000 * '''Utah Target:''' 16.3 ED visits per 10,000
How Are We Doing?In 2014, Utah was well below the Healthy People 2020 (HP2020) objectives for ages 0-4 and 5-64, and met its state ED target for 0-4. The emergency department visit rate among the elderly ages 65+ in 2014 (21.0 per 10,000 population) currently exceeds the HP2020 objective (13.7 per 10,000 population). In 2014, Utah's overall emergency department visit rate due to asthma was 24.7 per 10,000 population (crude rate). Asthma emergency department visits are higher among young male children when compared to young female children. However, among adolescents and adults, females have higher rates.
What Is Being Done?The Utah Asthma Program (UAP) in conjunction with the Utah Asthma Task Force and other partners strive to maximize the reach, impact, efficiency, and sustainability of comprehensive asthma control services through providing a seamless alignment of the full array of services across the public health and health care sectors, so that people with asthma receive all of the services they need. The UAP focuses on three types of strategies to create and support a comprehensive asthma control program, these include: building infrastructure strategies to support leadership, strategic partnerships, strategic communications, surveillance, and evaluation; linking services strategies to expand school- and home-based services; and creating health systems strategies to improve coverage, delivery, quality, and use of clinical services. These strategies are expected to increase asthma control and quality of life, by increasing access to health care and by increasing coordination and coverage for comprehensive asthma control services both in the public health and health care sectors. Specifically, these strategies include identifying people with poorly controlled asthma, linking them to health care providers and NAEPP EPR-3 guidelines-based care, educating them on self-management, providing a supportive school environment, and referring to or providing home trigger reduction services for those who need them. The linkage function has the added benefit of bringing more people who might be high utilizers of emergency room and hospital services into primary care and also providing a resource for primary care providers to refer people for intensive self-management education and trigger reduction services when needed.
Available ServicesIndividual programs in the Bureau of Health Promotion, Division of Disease Control and Prevention, provide information and education to citizens, physicians, and health care providers on chronic conditions. For instance, users can find helpful information on disease management and prevention at the Utah Department of Health's Asthma Program website: [http://www.health.utah.gov/asthma/] A list of Utah Asthma Program services for clinicians, community health workers, and people with asthma can be found here: [http://health.utah.gov/asthma/pdfs/CAC.pdf]

Security Firm NQ Mobile Looks to Stem Rising Tide of Mobile Malware
In 2011, NQ Mobile, China's biggest mobile phone security company, found some 25,000 pieces of malware targeted at mobile devices. In 2012, it discovered more than 65,000. A dramatic increase. Terrifying, too, when you think about how prominent a role smartphones play in our lives these days. They're little storehouses of personal information, full of our most sensitive data: Photos, personal and business messages, voicemails, even financial information for those who use them to make stock trades or bank transactions. Unprotected, they're at risk. And for NQ Mobile, that risk is a business model.
"Given what we believe is going to happen in mobile in the next few years, we're certain the need for security on our devices is going to become much more important," said NQ Mobile CEO Omar Khan, a former executive at Samsung and Motorola, in an interview at D: Dive Into Mobile. "The No. 1 concern for most CIOs these days is security and mobile device management."
More so, because security isn't always a top priority for their employees — or for consumers in general.
"We recently conducted a survey," Khan said. "And one of the questions we asked was, 'Do you have security enabled on your mobile device.' I think 53 percent of consumers answered that they did. But we know statistically that's not true."
And for those consumers for whom it really is true, the security precautions they've taken might not be as secure as they believe.
"Consumers misinterpret things like lock-screen codes as foolproof security, but they're not," Khan said, adding that a pattern of fingerprints on someone's phone screen is potentially enough to threaten the security of their device.
And that needs to change. "We really need to develop a broader awareness around mobile device security," Khan said. With malicious hackers increasingly targeting our smartphones, the stakes here are simply too high not to.
"Think about the types of information we carry — photos, geolocation data, passwords, credit card information," said Khan. "We have very intimate relationships with our smartphones."
And the sooner more people realize that, the better — for consumers, and for NQ Mobile, as well. Said Khan, "Sometimes we joke that we're the largest mobile security company in the world, and no one's heard of us."

Building Bridges to the Future - Introduction
The Sixth Ministerial Conference "Environment for Europe"
Belgrade, 10-12 October 2007
"Building Bridges to the Future"
Preparatory Process / Conference Proceedings
The bridges of Belgrade
The "Environment for Europe" Ministerial Conference, hosted by Serbia in Belgrade in October 2007 on the theme "Building Bridges to the Future", was the largest high-level international political meeting held in the country for many years.
The Belgrade Ministerial Conference was the sixth in the "Environment for Europe" process and it was particularly rich in substance, with contributions from a great number of partners. The preparation for the Conference started two years before the Ministerial Conference which gave time for thorough preparatory work, including the negotiations of a declaration and the preparation of major documents. Further information about the preparatory process and negotiations of the draft Ministerial Declaration can be found here.
Ministers and high-level officials from 51 UNECE member States and the European Commission, international organisations, NGOs and other stakeholders discussed progress achieved in the implementation of environmental policies since the Kiev Conference in 2003, capacity building and partnerships as well as the future of the "Environment for Europe" process. As a whole the Conference attracted more than 1,000 official delegates - including 60 Ministers, Deputy Ministers and State Secretaries, with 16 coming from the education sector - and around 2,000 observers and other participants. The list of participants is available here.
More than 60 side-events were arranged by different stakeholders during the two-and-a-half days of the Conference.
Discussions at the Belgrade Conference
The agenda of the Belgrade Conference included subjects of both Pan- European and sub-regional importance. Discussions held at the Conference focused on such topics as assessment and implementation (i.e. state of the environment, monitoring and assessment, implementation of multilateral environmental agreements, environmental performance reviews), education for sustainable development, biodiversity, capacity-building in the countries of Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia, and South-East European countries, international competitiveness, partnerships to support the implementation of environmental policies and programmes, and the future of the process. The Conference proceedings contaning a short summary of each session, Conference documents as well as the key note speeches and interventions made are now available on-line. A full list of documents submitted to the Belgrade Conference may be found here.
The Ministers committed to further environmental improvements in countries of the UNECE region. They recognized the important value of the EfE process as a unique pan-European forum for tackling environmental challenges, and promoting broad horizontal environmental cooperation, as a pillar of sustainable development in the region.
The Ministers also underlined the importance of a more focused and needs-driven EfE process, reflecting the changing political and socio- economic landscape, and agreed to reform the EfE process with a view to ensure that it remains fully aligned with the needs of the region.
Major outcomes of the Belgrade Conference
The Ministerial Declaration (En, Fr, Ru) adopted by acclamation reflects main political commitments taken by the Ministers and Heads of delegation.
For the first time in the history of the "Environment for Europe" process, the results of the discussions of the Ministers were reflected in a Chair's Summary (En, Fr, Ru).
The Report of the Belgrade Conference (En, Fr, Ru) provides a factual overview of the Conference sessions.
Special features of the Belgrade Conference
Workshop for journalists
To raise the awareness of journalists from the UNECE region on the issues addressed by the Belgrade Conference and enhance their capacity to report on the key environmental issues and decisions adopted at the Conference, on 9 October - back to back with the Conference,- the UNECE organized a workshop for journalists. The agenda of the workshop covered such issues as the state of the environment in the UNECE region, environment and security, multilateral environmental agreements and EPRs, education for sustainable development, sustainable consumption and production, biodiversity, energy efficiency etc.
In total, more than 80 journalists from the UNECE region (including 24 from the countries of Eastern Europe, Caucasus, Central Asia as well as Sounth-Eastern Europe, supported by the UNECE) attended the workshop. Presentations for the workshop were prepared by the UNECE secretariat, in cooperation with the other United Nations agencies and international organizations.
Carbon neutrality
The Belgrade conference was a carbon neutral event. The calculations of the greenhouse gas emissions produced by the Conference were run by the Carbon Neutral Company (CNC). The funds were provided by the Presidency of the European Union (Portugal). The greenhouse gas emissions produced by the Conference were offset through methane capture and renewable energy technology projects which was certified by the CNC.
IISD reporting
In order to ensure a greater visibility of the Belgrade Conference reporting services of the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) were contracted. The high-quality daily reports, including the final report, were produced with support of the UNECE secretariat and are available online at http://www.iisd.ca/ymb/efeb/.
EfE newsletters
In the framework of the Communication Plan for the Belgrade Ministerial Conference (ECE/CEP/AC.11/2006/13) prepared according to the request of the Committee on Environmental Policy, the newsletter dedicated to the EfE process and the preparation for the Conference was issued. The newsletter (#1, #2, #3, #4) provided information on the history of the EfE process, main activities conducted in the framework of the preparatory process, schedule of the forthcoming meetings and major deadlines, as well as practical information for delegates.

Time to start studying up on student loan fraud. This fairly new form of identity theft is on the rise, and it costs a pretty penny, according to a federal report: about $874 million, with the government losing about $187 million.
With deadlines for federal student aid right around the corner, IDentity Theft 911 rounded up two stories from real victims of student loan fraud.
- A Michigan man's identity was used to secure $3,000 in student loans and a $6,700 Pell Grant. The victim filed a police report, a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and disputes with all three major credit bureaus — to no avail. The government said that since his information was used, he was still responsible for loan payments.
- A California woman discovered she was a victim of student loan fraud when she tried to refinance her home. Her credit score had plummeted because someone used her information to secure two student loans, one of which had gone into collection. Her tax refund was docked to pay off the loan.
Untangling can take time, expertise
"People who claim the threat of identity theft is overblown simply have no concept of the nature of the crime or the persistence and expertise required to resolve these types of issues," said Adam Levin, chairman and founder of IDentity Theft 911 and Credit.com. "Without the help of a professional fraud investigator, victims are likely to get bogged down in red tape for months, if not years."
Student loan fraud happens when identity thieves apply for loan using stolen personal information, often through low-cost online colleges. They receive federal funding through the school, and after tuition and fees are deducted, the balances is remanded to the "student." Criminals usually take that balance and leave victims on the hook for debt repayment.
Identity theft rings are often behind this crime. However, a report by the Office of the Inspector General shows an 82% increase in the number of college students who are suspected of engaging in loan fraud in the last four years. Suspected participants jumped from 18,719 students to 34,007 in that period. The office identified more than 85,000 recipients who might have participated in student aid fraud rings.
If you suspect you're a victim of identity theft, you may be able to get help through your employer benefit program. You can spot possible identity theft by monitoring your credit scores using free tools on Credit.com. Any sudden, unexpected changes to your scores could signal identity theft and you should pull your credit reports (which you can do once a year for free) to confirm.

German Zimtsterne (cinnamon almond cookies)
I always wanted to make these, and finally got the guts — oh boy, I wasn't really prepared for the amount of nitty-gritty with making these. I started with original German recipe that called for 500g of almonds, but that ended up being 2 full baking sheets and lots of sneaky snacking between steps ;-) But the result is good, and these cookies are worth the effort.
Simple chicken teriyaki bento
This recipe is very easy and fast to cook, because it requires ready-made teriyaki sauce. Still, it's a really tasty alternative to sausages and pork, and chicken made in teriyaki style is juicy, tender and full of aroma! It also takes just few minutes, because the meat is first fried quickly, and then glazed with sauce. Fast food like a boss ;-)
Fancy tamagoyaki bento
Oh my, this one is both a looker and tastes amazingly! :-) This bento idea is based on the basic tamagoyaki recipe, so feel free to use your favorite ingredients: champignons or chanterelle mushroom, herbs, different kinds of onion, bacon bits, ham shavings etc. Go crazy! :-) It's also a very good side dish!
Teriyaki pork strips with shallots bento
This simple recipe requires only 3 ingredients: sliced pork loin (already mentioned minute steaks or easy steaks), shallots and teriyaki sauce. It's also one of the lazy recipes — part of it you can prepare evening before, and finish it quickly before serving or packing your bento box. Plus, marinating for a long time allows increased flavors to transfer easily across the meat!
Tamagoyaki bento
Tamagoyaki is a great and easy to make bento ingredient. It's savory taste goes well with vegetables and diary ingredients, it packs a reasonable amount of protein and will satisfy your hunger for a long time. It's good served warm, as well as cold.

Dear DBFace Team,
Please kindly consider adding cascading form filter in the next enhancement.
The cascading is useful when I am building a report which can be run with following parameter:
Country > State > Suburb
Currently I have to deploy 3 set of reports instead of 1, and the last report will have a long list of values in the dropdown list as no filter can be applied.
Cascading Form Filter

Gallup Poll shows record high have no faith in mainstream news sources
Steve Watson
Wednesday, Sept 29th, 2010
A Gallup poll has revealed that a record majority of Americans fundamentally do not trust the mass media and believe it to be politically biased.
When asked how much confidence they have in newspapers, TV and Radio to accurately report events, 57% of Americans surveyed said that they generally have "not very much or none at all".
The figure marks a one percent rise on 2008's record high of 56%, while the general trend shows an increase in mistrust in the media of around 13% over the past decade.
Just 43% of Americans said they now have "a great deal or fair amount" of trust in the mainstream media, a record low, and a plummeting drop from a height of 72% in the mid 1970s.
A total of 63% of Americans said that they perceive a political bias in the mainstream media, with 48% believing it to be too liberal and 15% too conservative.
Interestingly, the survey finds that those identifying themselves with Democrats and liberals are happier with their daily feed of corporate political propaganda, with 59% and 54% respectively saying they currently have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the mass media.
The results reflect the rise and rise of the alternative media and Internet news sources, which are rapidly gaining popularity amongst Americans, who are turning away from the dinosaur media in droves.
In another recent Gallup poll, just 25% of people of all ages stated that they had trust in newspapers and television news.
Of course, this is not god news for the Federal government, given that it considers those who disagree with the mass media's version of events to be potential domestic terrorists. By this logic over half of all Americans are potentially radical extremists.
With the increasing awakening to the blatant bias of the corporate media, we encourage our readers to help us reach the next level and be equipped to step in and fill the void.
The corporate media admits that billions of dollars of taxpayer money are being used to expand the propaganda efforts at Fox News, CNN, and wide array of corporate local television stations in order to inculcate the masses with government scripted lies and distract them with meaningless sports and celebrity events as the economy and society is systematically dismantled and a control grid and police state implemented around them.
The infowar is not funded and supported by the elite, their foundations, or the corporate media's television and radio networks. It is critical that we take the infowar to the next level if we are going to effectively resist the ominous threat posed by the global elite and their cadre of technocrats orchestrating slick propaganda.
Two and a half years ago Alex Jones made the decision to move into a new suite of offices, build a studio, expand his film production, and grow his web news operations. The effort was fantastically successful, but would not have been possible without your generous support. The 2009 moneybomb allowed us to increase our staff, lease the empty warehouse next to us, build more offices, create a professional television studio, and begin work on an upcoming social networking site.
If we hope to finish this ambitious plan and counter corporate media lies, spin, and propaganda, an additional moneybomb is a necessity. It is crucial we take the infowar to the next level and combat the growing propaganda onslaught waged by the global elite and the corporate media with its boundless coffer of money looted from the American taxpayer and provided by wealthy globalist foundations.
On October 14, we will launch the Infowar Moneybomb. Alex will be in the chair for 24 hours. We will be on the radio and will stream over Prison Planet TV important new footage of never seen before interviews with Lord Monckton, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, Alan Watt, Katherine Austin Fitts, Webster Tarpley, Paul Craig Roberts and others. Make sure you tune in on October 14 and watch this important broadcast.
Help us take the infowar to the next level by participating in the Infowars Moneybomb on October 14. If we fail to expand our operation and broadcast the message of truth far and wide, the elite will realize an important and decisive victory.

The Hotel Morgan "Threw Open Its Doors" in 1925 as one of the premier hotels in the country. The Morgantown Post declared it "Grand!"
Over the next 70 year's time took its toll on the hotel. In 1999 the property underwent a complete historic rehabilitation. The ballroom with its two-story ceilings and the balcony overview was restored beyond its original grandeur and is the first choice of weddings and banquets in the area. The Smaller original guest rooms were combined and converted to suites. The renovations incorporated a full service restaurant on the 8th floor offering beautiful panoramic views of the downtown district.
The Historic Clarion Hotel Morgan continues today as the premier downtown lodging destination. Its convenient access to all areas of the City, West Virginia University, Rail Trail, and the Waterfront make it Morgantown's destination hotel .

I'm wondering if you any one notices or has any problems with the repetitive rotation that Hip Hop Nation has? I mean, this is "Hip Hop Nation" we shouldn't be hearing the same songs more than 2 or 3 times a day, yet for example I heard Common's "Announcement" twice in 25 minutes. That's FM Radio at it's finest. When the DJ's come on to do their thing it's great, but any other time your hearing the same songs over and over. Below is a list of some of the songs I think are over played if any one agrees let me know.
Rick Ross: Here I Am
Common: Announcement, Universial Mind Control
TI: Whatever you Like, Live Your Life
Lil Wayne: Got Money
Young Jeezy: My President
Nas: Black President, Make the World Go 'Round
Kanye West: Go Hard
Jim Jones/Juelz Santana/Ron Browz- Pop Champagne
Busta Rhymes: Arab Money

In one of the report's most worrisome findings, the agency estimates that in light of recent ice sheet melting, global sea level rise could be as much as four feet by 2100. The IPCC had projected a sea level rise of no more than 1.5 feet by that time, but satellite data over the past two years show the world's major ice sheets are melting much more rapidly than previously thought. The Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are now losing an average of 48 cubic miles of ice a year, equivalent to twice the amount of ice that exists in the Alps.
A four foot change really means something to a number of the more famous (and less famous) coastal attractions in New Jersey like Cape May, Atlantic City, Wildwood, or Sandy Hook. But it also will severly impact the less visitable coastal wetlands that make some of these places possible. Even in New Brunswick and 4' rise would be a serious thing to consider, so I hope the county isn't spending any more tax money on a marina down there.

Oh, BoomTown really likes Carol Bartz as Yahoo CEO already.
In Yahoo's conference call this afternoon, she lectured everyone sternly to give Yahoo some "friggin' breathing room" and also noted that the company "frankly, could use a little management."
The latter is stating the very obvious, but we like hearing it anyway, and Bartz sounds like she is running the show from the get-go.
It's like watching a digital version of "The Gladiator"!
So, here is Boomtown's live blog of the Yahoo (YHOO) call, starring Carol Bartz as its new CEO:
2:35 pm PST:
The conference call started with Yahoo Chairman Roy Bostock, who stumbled at first and called Bartz "Carl"–Icahn on the brain?–before recovering and waxing effusively about the new Yahoo CEO and former Autodesk (ADSK) head.
He also thanked outgoing Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang and President Sue Decker, who is also resigning, it was announced earlier today. They are not present, it seems.
Frankly, Bostock is the one who should also be on his way out the door, given that he has also presided over Yahoo's huge decline in market share and its myriad stumbles.
2:41 pm PST:
Bartz's first word as CEO, of course: Yahoo!
But Bartz crisply took the bull by the horns at the start and said she will "seize the opportunity." She sounded kind of scary, but in a good way.
She then laid out her many choices–search deal, etc.–but no decisions yet, you impatient curs!
And she calls herself a "straight shooter" in a really straight-shooter tone.
"My focus is on turning the company around," she said flatly.
Oh, that. But, to be honest, it's the best idea I have heard from Yahoo all year.
2:45 pm PST:
The floor is open for questions.
The first is about how she was approached and how she looks at Yahoo's business.
December, she was intrigued, blah, blah.
Bartz then sharply raised the game, noting that Yahoo and its assets "frankly, could use a little management."
Ouch, Jerry and Sue. A slapfest from the get-go!
She also thinks it "nonsense" to think that Yahoo was not feeling great about itself. In other words, shape up, Yahoo!
Bartz uses the word "nonsense" in that end-of-discussion way, like someone who has kids and knows a thing or two about nonsense.
End of discussion?
Not until she answers another question about Yahoo's situation by noting that the company needs some "friggin' breathing room" and that it's time for all those outside the company who are endlessly yammering about what Yahoo needs to do, to shut their pie holes.
Uh-oh. Carol is not going to like pie-hole-yammering-about-Yahoo-obsessively HQ, also known as BoomTown.
I briefly consider a new career in real estate, before deciding to stay on the Yahoo CEO-stalking beat until she gives in.
A new challenge! Just when I thought the telenovela was lagging, it heats up with a new twist.
And, from the first call, it's clear Bartz is a very new twist–a tough-talking, take-no-prisoners CEO for a company that needs one desperately.
Of course, Bartz cuts the conference short in about 15 minutes, after just three questions. (She totally did not take mine, which would have been: "Why, Carol, why?")
She noted that she was off to a management meeting, which is much more important than chit-chatting with annoying press and analysts.
Bartz certainly has her work cut out for her, which she seems to be doing at the start with some verve and sassy punch that will hopefully reinvigorate the troubled Yahoo.
As Maximus said: "I knew a man once who said, 'Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back.'"
So far, Bartz sounds like she knows how to smile.

MIDDLETON — The school deliberative session will be held this Saturday and items up for discussion include whether the district should consider withdrawal from its current tuition agreement with Farmington and how to replace old school buses badly in need of repair.
The "authorized regional enrollment agreement," referred to as the AREA agreement between Middleton and Farmington, which comprise SAU 61, has been under some scrutiny for the past several months by the Middleton School Board. Board members voted last September to enter into a conversation with the SAU 49 Gov. Wentworth Regional School District regarding the potential for setting up a tuition agreement there in Wolfeboro Falls. They say they owe it to students to explore alternatives.
While the Farmington School Board has expressed interest in renegotiating the agreement, an article on the warrant this year will ask voters whether Middleton should enter into a feasibility and suitability study for withdrawal from the AREA agreement. The study shall be conducted by two School Board members from each town, along with the superintendent as a non-voting party and two members from the town governing body. The committee will have approximately six months to submit a report to the state Board of Education stating whether withdrawal would be feasible.
Another hot topic to be deliberated this weekend will entail what to do about Middleton's troublesome buses, some of which have surpassed their life expectancy.
At the start of the school year last fall, officials reported the buses were breaking down routinely and parents complained they were left waiting in the early morning hours for buses to arrive while their children were showing up late for class.
Three articles are on the warrant, asking voters whether the district shall purchase a replacement school bus at the cost of about $81,300, whether they will also purchase one lease of a bus for $83,000 at an annual cost of $20,750, and whether to purchase another lease for $83,980 at an annual cost about $16,800.
A fourth article reads if none of these options are voted through, the district asks voters whether to place $10,000 in the school bus capital reserve fund.
Additional items to be discussed this weekend include whether to place an extra $25,000 into the special education trust fund and whether the district shall place on file reports of "auditors, agents, committees and officers" regarding prudential affairs of the school district.
There will also be an election for two new school board members at this year's balloting session, for three-year terms, as well as elections for the position of moderator, town clerk and treasurer.
The Middleton deliberative session will be held this Saturday, Feb. 2, at 9 a.m. at Old Town Hall. If canceled due to inclement weather, the session will be held on Saturday, Feb. 9, at the same time. The voting session for annual Town Meeting will be held Tuesday, March 12, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Forget doing it yourself. One-third of all Vanguard 401(k) plan participants invested their entire account balance in a professionally managed asset allocation and investment option in 2011, according to Vanguard's How America Saves 2012, an annual report on how U.S. workers are saving and investing for retirement.
The report notes that "the increasing prominence of so-called professionally managed allocations—in a single target-date or balanced fund or through a managed account advisory service—is one of the most important trends in 401(k) and other defined contribution (DC) plans today."
In 2011, 33% of all Vanguard participants were invested a professionally managed allocation program: 24% in a single target-date fund (TDF); 6% in a single traditional balanced fund, and 3% in a managed account advisory program. The total number is up from 9% at the end of 2005.
These options dramatically improve portfolio diversification for many participants, the company claims, helping to reduce the risks associated with either having too much in equities (which could expose a participant to considerable market volatility) or too little (reducing the long-term return potential of a retirement portfolio). For instance, the report notes in 2011, a total 18% of participants took an extreme position in equities, holding either 100% in equities (10% of participants) or no equities (8%). In contrast, a total of 34% of participants held extreme equity positions in 2005.
"Some question the benefits of 401(k) plans because they transfer investment decision-making to generally inexperienced participants," said Jean Young, lead author of How America Saves. "Now, however, an increasing number of participants can leave the asset allocation, investment selection and ongoing management responsibilities of their account to the professionally managed allocation options available in their DC plans."
Fueling much of the growth of these programs is the soaring adoption of TDFs. Eighty-two percent of plan sponsors offered target-date funds in 2011, up from 28% in 2005. Forty-seven percent of all participants use TDFs. While the growth of these funds is frequently attributed to their designation as the investment default in automatic enrollment plans, many participants are voluntarily choosing TDFs. In plans with voluntary enrollment, 48% of participants are invested in TDFs.
Vanguard believes the surge of TDF usage will continue to influence the adoption of professionally managed allocations.
"Largely because of the growing use of target-date options, we anticipate that 55% of all participants and 80% of new plan entrants will be entirely invested in a professionally managed allocation by 2016," Young said.
Other key trends in the report include:
- Plan participation and auto features. The 2011 plan participation rate was 76%, unchanged from 2010. Automatic plan enrollment continues to rise. In 2011, 29% of Vanguard plans had adopted automatic enrollment, up 2 percentage points from 2010. Employees in plans with an automatic enrollment feature at the end of 2011 had an overall participation rate of 80% compared with a participation rate of only 60% for employees in voluntary enrollment plans. Seven in 10 automatic enrollment plans have implemented automatic annual deferral rate increases, up from three in 10 in 2005. Automatic enrollment particularly improves participation rates among traditional non-savers: young, short-tenure and lower-income workers.
- Plan savings. The average participant deferral rate rose to 7.1% and the median (the median reflects the typical participant) was unchanged at 6%. The aggregate average plan savings rate was 10.4% in 2011. Vanguard's view is that investors should save 12% to 15% or more. For participants with lower wages, Social Security is expected to replace a higher percentage of income and so a lower retirement savings rate may be appropriate. For those earning higher wages, Social Security replaces a lower percentage of income, and savings rates may need to be higher.
- Plan account balances. The median account balances of continuous participants—those with an account balance at both the end of 2010 and 2011—rose by 10%. Eight in 10 of these continuous participants saw their balances rise because of conservative asset allocations (for example, being invested exclusively or predominantly in fixed-income holdings) and ongoing contributions. In 2011, the median participant account balance was $25,550 and the average was $78,296.
- Accessing plan assets. In 2011, 18% of participants had an outstanding loan, unchanged from the year before. Only 4% of participants took an in-service withdrawal; weak economic conditions appeared to be affecting the withdrawal behavior of a very small group of participants. In addition, participants separating from service largely preserved their assets for retirement. During 2011, about 30% of all participants could have taken their account as a distribution because they had separated from service in the current year or prior years. The majority of these participants (83%) continued to preserve their plan assets for retirement by either remaining in their employer's plan or rolling over their savings to an IRA or a new employer plan. They preserved 96% of the available assets.
- Low-cost fund options. With the intensifying focus on plan fees, plan sponsors are increasingly interested in offering a wider range of low-cost index funds, including an "index core," a comprehensive set of low-cost index options that span the global capital markets. In 2011, 44% of Vanguard plans offered a set of options providing an index core. Because large plans have adopted this approach more quickly, slightly more than half of all Vanguard participants were offered an index core as part of their plan's overall investment menu.
How America Saves is based on an analysis of Vanguard's full-service recordkeeping plans and 3 million participants.

San Diego Region SCCA is pleased to announce that 2014 will mark its return to road racing, with a*May 17-18*double divisional race at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway in cooperation with Arizona Region.
For those of you unfamiliar with Chuckwalla, it features a technical, 17 turn 2.68 mile road course, which we will be running in the clockwise direction.** With its smooth pavement and numerous elevation changes, it has to be considered a driver's track.* Gas, food, and permanent restroom facilities will be available at the track.* While the nearest hotels are about 40 miles away, camping is allowed onsite and there are several trailers provided by the track for overnight rental.* It is roughly equidistant from Phoenix and Los Angeles, and for much of urban Southern California it is a shorter drive than any track other than the Autoclub Speedway.
2014 is a particularly exciting year for West Coast SCCA members, as the runoffs will be held in California for the first time in 50 years.* Our Chuckwalla race will be one of four Southern Pacific divisional qualifiers on the Road to the Runoffs.
San Diego Region had a very active and accomplished road racing program for many years, which ceased when we lost access to the track at Holtville.* Our goal is to rebuild that program and contribute to that proud history.* Volunteers are necessary for any SCCA race, and we will be calling on our membership to step up and join in the fun in the very near future.* Look to this space for further announcements and updates.

IBHOF: Swinging golf clubs instead of punches
CANASTOTA >> As James "Bonecrusher" Smith's nickname would accurately indicate, he is a guy with a powerful build. But at Casolwood Golf Course on Saturday during the 24th annual "Golf Tournament of Champions," Smith was crushing the golf ball down the course instead of heads in the ring.
"I like to get out once in awhile," said Smith. "I live in South Carolina, the golf capitol of the world so when I get back there I will probably be back on the course again."
Smith was just a handful of boxers on hand along with 100 golfers at Casolwood Saturday afternoon for golfing, food, autographs and socializing during the International Boxing Hall of Fame weekend.
Smith, who has visited Canastota roughly half-a-dozen times said he would like to make the trip to the area more often.
"It's such a huge part of what we (as boxers) are all about," said Smith. "It's great for us to come out here and it's great for the fans to have this opportunity."
Fellow boxer Gerry Cooney opted out of playing golf Saturday, forgetting to bring his clubs. So instead he hopped in a golf cart and still became a part of the day's events.
"Oh I'm out gabbing and checking in on people," said Cooney. "Heckling most of them a bit, too.
"This whole weekend is about having fun."
John Dodge, from Utica, and his foursome of friends Don Hughes and Greg Anderson along with his son Jordan, said Cooney tagged along with them for three holes.
"He could be back in the ring today he's so fit still," said Dodge, who's group shot 11-under in the charity tournament.
At times it appeared Cooney wanted to be back in the ring, playfully throwing jabs like he hasn't aged a day.
Carlos Palomino was also out on the course.
"Ah my putts are a little off today," joked Palomino. "I just think it's great to be out here."
And none appreciated the day and weekend events as much as the fans.
"I didn't really start getting into boxing until I started doing it," said Amanda Kesseling, who came in from Cambridge, Ont., for her first visit during hall of fame weekend. "They (boxers) are so approachable and the whole thing is just really neat."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called health insurers "the villains" in the unfolding story of the health care overhaul on Thursday, ratcheting up an anti-insurer theme trotted out by President Obama earlier this month and encouraged by other Democratic leaders in Congress.
"It is somewhat immoral what they are doing. Of course, they have been immoral all along how they have treated the people that they insure," MSNBC's Luke Russert quoted her as saying. "They are the villains in this."
Pelosi, of course, has accepted campaign contributions from said villains this year and in the past, as have most of her Democratic colleagues. Pelosi's campaign committee, for example, took $2,500 from AFLAC's political action committee on April 13. But she's not giving the money back just because she thinks the sources are immoral and villainous.
"As the Speaker's opposition to the health insurance companies being in charge of American's health care shows, there is no link between political contributions and positions on policy," said her spokesman Brendan Daly.
Besides, a quick look at her records suggests that health insurers make up a fraction of the money she accepts from the broader insurance industry and place her fairly low on the list of recipients — particularly given her longtime spot atop the Democratic Party — according to a study released earlier this year by the Center for Responsive Politics.
Pelosi ranked 55th among members of the 111th Congress in contributions from health insurers since the 1989-1990 election cycle, according to CRP, having taken in $186,750 (less than $20,000 per two-year cycle).
The real trick — as Ways and Means Chairman Charles B. Rangel, D-N.Y., has shown — is to turn your entire enemies list into your fundraising pool.
The targeting of insurance companies is a political natural, as Americans view them with great skepticism in polls. In one recent Gallup survey, only 4 percent of respondents chose insurers over doctors and hospitals, Obama and congressional Democrats, and congressional Republicans as the entity they most trust to reform the health care system.

I have a Samsung tv UE40C6700 from 2010 with a big problem. After some hours switched on, it suddenly shuts down and starts again after a few seconds. Then sometimes it stays on, but very often it is in a loop with switching on and off. When it cools down (the next day) I can use it again for some time and then the loop starts again. It seems to be a thermal problem. When I opened the back cover and leaves it open, the tv runs longer, but after some hours it starts again switching off and on.
The TV is not hacked. The electrolytic capacitors seems to be ok. It has nothing to do with network access. It has no Wifi or LAN connection. I tried to reproduce the failure by heating it up with a hairdryer, but without any success.
I can only use the TV without back-cover for 2-3 hours. Then it starts the boot-loop.
Has anyone an idea where to search the bug? Any comment is very welcome.

View from the floor: Sunshine.
It's about time. Often, I buy beverages solely based on their packaging. Surely I'm not alone in this?
Weekend Stop at Stumptown.
I know that everyone likes Stumptown coffee, but I think their hot chocolate is the best.
Spotted: Gremlin!
I have a total soft spot for Gremlins – they're little, awkward and the gas tank in the back cracks me up. There's this middle-aged hispanic woman in my neighborhood that burns out of the Plaid Pantry parking lot sometimes in the most amazing Gremlin of all-time: sparkly green paint job, monsterous racing slick tires and massive flames painted along the sides. I totally wish she'd take me for a spin sometime.
Project status: Complete.
I spent pretty much every waking hour this week working on a book for Downtown Portland with the North team, complete with custom embossed covers – I'm super happy with how it turned out.
Cutest sign ever.
I am in love with the logo for Breken Kitchen, a cafe in N.W. The walls inside are perfectly matched to that same green – I love it when businesses go the extra mile with those little details.
You can't be serious.
When I was sitting at Stumptown this weekend, this bike rider's getup totally caught my eye. Skin tight? Check? Hearts? Check. Outfit matches your wife's? Check. Golden.
Hand-painted advertising.
Someone's a barfly.
When we go to the coffee shop in the morning and walk Rocky, we always pass a trashy restaurant / bar on the corner. The side door is usually open and Rocky for some reason loves to try and wander in. I don't blame him – the dart boards, collection of 3 foot tall trophies and Ozzy blaring are all pretty hard to resist. Nice sign, too:
Until next week,

Easy Ingrown Hair Treatments
Swimsuit SOS: How to Deal With Ingrown Hairs
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. POPSUGAR has affiliate and advertising partnerships so we get revenue from sharing this content and from your purchase.
Teeny bikinis leave little to the imagination as it is, but when you're suffering from a less-than-pleasant beauty situation, it can feel like you're under a microscope. Case in point: that ingrown hair plaguing your bikini line. Jamie Ahn, owner of New York's Acqua Beauty Bar, has seen her fair share of swimsuit-related mishaps. "Brazilians and bikini waxes are always more popular in the Summer," she says. "Because of this, there are always more issues with ingrown hairs." To get Ahn's insight on what causes ingrown hairs, how to prevent them, and how to treat them when you find yourself with one, just keep reading.
- What causes them: When a hair starts to grow, it's not difficult for it to get trapped beneath the skin's surface, causing it to curl under and grow back in, Ahn says. This tends to happen in areas where the skin folds, such as your bikini line. Bacteria accumulates in these high-friction areas, making them places for easy infection.
- How to prevent them: "Your best friend if you have issues with ingrown hairs is salicylic acid," Ahn says. Using this or a glycolic acid regularly after every wax or shave will keep your skin hair-free. Many anti-acne treatments have salicylic acid, or you could pick up a product like PFB Vanish Skin Treatment ($52), which is delicate enough to use on your bikini line. Keep antibacterial wipes in your beach bag too. Sunscreen is a big culprit when it comes to ingrown hairs because of how heavy it is. Bacteria can breed if your skin can't breathe, so use the wipes to clean your bikini area a couple times a day to help prevent ingrown hairs.
- What to do if you get them: Aim to free the hair so the follicle can push out, but stay away from loofahs or oil-based body scrub. "Both of those things harbor bacteria," Ahn explains. "You want to stay bacteria-free, so we suggest a gel-type of cleanser with some abrasion." If you're in a pinch, then Ahn suggests mixing some sugar into your body gel. Since the sugar is soluble, it will dissolve in the water when you're done with it. But if you have a stubborn hair that just keeps getting worse, then you do have to see a professional — like an aesthetician or a dermatologist — to extract the hair.

What is the biblical rationale behind the formation of a pulpit committee that will be charged with searching for a new pastor? Is a congregational vote necessary to determine if the session will serve as the pulpit committee or a mixed group (elders, deacons and members)? If so, what scriptural support exists for the necessity, or even prudence, of congregational input?
To answer your question we must turn to Acts 14:23, where we read, "And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed." The word appointed has the force or meaning that the elders were appointed by the raising of handsthat is, by the congregation choosing them. Paul and Barnabas simply appointed these men after the people elected them by raising their hands.
Here is how this works out in practice: the man who will serve as pastor must be accepted by the people over whom he will exercise authority, which means they must be able to express their confidence, or lack of it, by some sort of means. Thus, having members either participate in the work of a pulpit committee or having them entrust that work to the session simply makes sense. Thus, a congregational vote would be held to decide the question of the composition of the committee. But this, in itself, goes back to the idea that there is an inward call that the proposed minister receives from God to serve in ordained office and the necessity of the outward call in which the church, i.e., the congregation, acknowledges the man is gifted for the office. Putting this into the context of the pulpit committee, the people should have the opportunity to either evaluate a candidate's suitability to serve as pastor or entrust that evaluation to the elders. That is the way Acts 14:23 fits into the answer to your question.
"Questions and Answers" is a weekly feature of the OPC website. The answers come from individual ministers in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church expressing their own convictions and do not necessarily represent an "official" position of the Church, especially in areas where the Standards of the Church (the Scriptures and the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms) are silent.
The questions come from individuals like yourself. If you have questions about biblical and theological matters, you are invited to send them by e-mail by using the "Pose a Question" link on the OPC home page or by clicking here.
At least one new question is posted each week, so there should always be something new here for you to read. (For those people who would like to look at previous questions and answers, they will continue to be available as well.)
The purpose of the OPC website's "Questions and Answers" is to respond to biblical and theological questions. Matters of church discipline, disputes, or debates go beyond the scope of our work. We recommend that you present your concerns in these areas to the appropriate judicatory. In most cases this will be to a local pastor, elder, or session. We do not want the website to replace personal involvement in, or commitment to, the local, visible church.
While we will respond to every serious questioner, we are not bound to give a substantive answer to every question, should we deem the question to be beyond the scope of our purpose or our own ability to answer.
You will receive an answer by e-mail. Please be patient as many of our respondents are busy pastors. The response to your question may take up to two (2) weeks. Some of the questions submitted will be chosen to be posted here, along with the corresponding answers.
Note that the "Questions and Answers" posted on the site have been editedall personal references are removed, Scripture references or from some source may be added, and sometimes portions are expandedto make the questions and answers more useful to a larger audience.

All press releases
The Treaty of Rome establishing the European Economic Community signed on 25 March 1957 already contained the most important framework provisions of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).
The relationship between the Community authorities and the representatives of the agricultural sector was left open by the Treaty, but the Commission expressed its desire for close cooperation at an early stage and invited representatives of agricultural organisations to attend the 1958 Stresa Conference as observers.
Farmers themselves were convinced of the importance of the Community for their sector, and on 6 September 1958, the first European representative organisation, COPA, was created.
One year later, on 24 September 1959, the agricultural cooperatives of the European Community created their European umbrella organisation, COGECA (General Confederation of Agricultural Cooperatives).
COPA's Secretariat was established in Brussels on 1 April 1959, merging with that of COGECA on 1 December 1962.
When COPA (Committee of Professional Agricultural Organisations) first started out it had 13 member organisations from the then six Member States. Today COPA is made up of 60 organisations from the countries of the European Union and 36 partner organisations from other European countries such as Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey.
This broad membership allows COPA to represent both the general and specific interests of farmers in the European Union. Since its inception, COPA has been recognised by the Community authorities as the organisation speaking on behalf of the European agricultural sector as a whole.
The objectives of COPA are:
The working structures of COPA are determined by three basic ideas:
These ideas have resulted in the following structures:
The Praesidium consists of one representative per member organisation. Normally, these representatives are the presidents of the member organisations.
Apart from these national representatives, the following additional persons take part in Praesidium meetings: the President of COGECA, the President of CEJA (European Council of Young Farmers) and the Chairperson of the COPA Women's Committee.
The COPA President, who chairs the Praesidium meetings, may also invite any additional persons whose presence is regarded as useful. This applies in particular to the Chairmen or Chairwomen of the various COPA Working Parties, as well as to the Chairmen or Chairwomen of the joint COPA/COGECA Working Parties, whenever a subject relevant to their respective sectors is on the agenda.
The Praesidium normally meets every second month.
Its main function is to make all necessary decisions and organise COPA's activities.
Praesidium positions are taken jointly with COGECA whenever they concern the agricultural sector as a whole.
The Praesidium elects from among its members a President and six Vice-Presidents for a two year term of office. The Presidency of COPA, which normally meets once a month, and the Presidency of COGECA together form a Coordination Committee which tries to reach agreement as far as the activities and positions of COPA and COGECA are concerned.
Policy Coordination Committee
Every month, the Policy Coordination Committee examines certain major horizontal issues and proposals from the COPA/COGECA Working Parties before they are submitted to the Praesidium. Every week, the Committee also exchanges information, coordinates the activities and follows up the decisions made by the Praesidium.
Working Parties
COPA has 50 Working Parties, dealing either with specific, production-related topics (e.g. cereals, beef meat) or with general questions (e.g. environment, rural development). Most of these Working Parties are constituted jointly with COGECA, but both COPA and COGECA also have separate Working Parties of their own. The Working Parties examine all questions concerning their sector, either on their own initiative or at the request of the Praesidium or the President of COPA.
The European Commission
COPA's Praesidium regularly meets the Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development in order to discuss the general development of the Common Agricultural Policy, the market situation and specific issues of particular importance (such as the European Union's external trade relations).
Meetings with other Commissioners and with the Commission President are arranged whenever the need arises.
As for the more technical issues, regular contact is made between COPA experts and those of the Commission. This contact can take various forms: positions put forward by COPA delegates at the Commission's Advisory Groups, personal contact at staff level, attendance of Commission officials at COPA meetings, transmission of letters and written positions.
Council of Ministers, European Parliament, Economic and Social Committee and Committee of the Regions
COPA can communicate with the Council both directly and indirectly. Direct representations consist in the transmission of COPA positions on the subject in question, and occasionally in meetings with the President of the Council or the Council as a whole.
Indirect representations are more frequent - these consist of contact at national level between COPA's member organisations and the national ministers or their staff. Such contact, in order to be successful, must be based on the joint EU-wide positions established at COPA.
There is also regular contact between COPA and the European Parliament and particularly with the members of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development and the political groups.
Contact between COPA and the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) is particularly close, since a number of representatives of COPA's member organisations are members of the EESC.
European socio-economic partners and European civil society
COPA's Secretariat, its member organisations and their members maintain active contact with other socio-economic and civil society representatives who are directly and indirectly related to the agricultural sector. These meetings may take the form of bilateral contact, participation at General Assemblies, and official or informal meetings.
COPA on the international stage
COPA enjoys privileged relations with many organisations beyond the European Union's frontiers. Whether these organisations are national or international, agricultural or general, the aim of these relations is the same: to strengthen dialogue with all actors who are relevant for European agriculture.

|Source: Wikipedia
That sounds easy: take two collection of identifiers, put them in sets, determine the intersection, done. Sadly, each collection uses identifiers from different databases. Worse, within one set identifiers from multiple databases. Mind you, I'm not going full monty, though some chemistry will be involved at some point. Instead, this post is really based on identifiers.
The example
Data set 1:
Data set 2: all metabolites from WikiPathways. This set has many different data sources, and seven provide more than 100 unique identifiers. The full list of metabolite identifiers is here.
The goal
Determine the interaction of two collections of identifiers from arbitrary databases, ultimately using scientific lenses. I will develop at least two solutions: one based on Bioclipse (this post) and one based on R (later).
First of all, we need something that links IDs in the first place. Not surprisingly, I will be using BridgeDb (doi:10.1186/1471-2105-11-5) for that, but for small molecules alternatives exist, like the Open PHACTS IMS based on BridgeDb, the Chemical Translation Service (doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btq476) or UniChem (doi:10.1186/s13321-014-0043-5, doi:10.1186/1758-2946-5-3).
The Bioclipse implementation
The first thing we need to do is read the files. I have them saved as CSV even though it is a tab-separated file. Bioclipse will now open it in it's matrix editor (yes, I think .tsv needs to be linked to that editor, which does not seem to be the case yet). Reading the human metabolites from WikiPathways is done with this code (using Groovy as scripting language):
file1 = new File(
"/Compare Identifiers/human_metabolite_identifiers.csv"
set1 = new java.util.HashSet();
file1.eachLine { line ->
fields = line.split(/\t/)
def syscode;
def id;
if (fields.size() >= 2) {
(syscode, id) = line.split(/\t/)
if (syscode != "syscode") { // ok, not the first line
set1.add(bridgedb.xref(id, syscode))
Reading the other identifier set is a bit trickier. First, I manually changed the second column, to use the BridgeDb system codes. The list is short, and saves me from making mappings in the source code. One thing I decide to do in the source code is normalize the ChEBI identifiers (something that many of you will recognize):
file2 = new File(
bioclipse.fullPath("/Compare Identifiers/set.csv")
set2 = new java.util.HashSet();
file2.eachLine { line ->
fields = line.split(/\t/)
def name;
def syscode;
def id;
if (fields.size() >= 3) {
(name, syscode, id) = line.split(/\t/)
if (syscode != "syscode") { // ok, not the first line
if (syscode == "Ce") {
if (!id.startsWith("CHEBI:")) {
id = "CHEBI:" + id
set2.add(bridgedb.xref(id, syscode))
Then, the naive approach that does not take into account identifier equivalence makes it easy to list the number of identifiers in both sets:
intersection = new java.util.HashSet();
println "set1: " + set1.size()
println "set2: " + set2.size()
println "intersection: " + intersection.size()
set1: 2584
set2: 6
intersection: 3
With the following identifiers in common:
[Ce:CHEBI:30089, Ce:CHEBI:15904, Ca:25513-46-6]
Of course, we want to use the identifier mapping itself. So, we first compare identifiers directly, and if not matching, use BridgeDb and an metabolite identifier mapping database (get one here):
mbMapper = bridgedb.loadRelationalDatabase(
intersection = new java.util.HashSet();
for (id2 in set2) {
if (set1.contains(id2)) {
// OK, direct match
} else {
mappings = bridgedb.map(mbMapper, id2)
for (mapped in mappings) {
if (set1.contains(mapped)) {
// OK, direct match
This gives five matches:
[Ch:HMDB00042, Cs:5775, Ce:CHEBI:15904, Ca:25513-46-6, Ce:CHEBI:30089]
The only metabolite it did not find in any pathway is the KEGG identified metabolite, homocystine. I just added this compound to Wikidata. That means that in the next metabolite mapping database, it will recognize this compound too.
The R and JavaScript implementations
I will soon write up the R version in a follow up post (but got to finish grading student reports first).
