Combating CO2 shortages: Investigating alternative gas mixes to fight carbon dioxide dearth
07 Sep 2022 --- As the agri-food industry grapples with carbon dioxide shortages, scientists are investigating CO2 alternatives that could stand in for the gas and mitigate future supply chain shocks. From brewers to the soft drinks sector, pig farmers to retailers and packaging, the latest C02 shortage has a ripple effect around several sectors. It's particularly poignant for shelf life and food preservation.
But now, Campden BRI has initiated a project to combat carbon dioxide scarcity and is seeking partners for alternative gas mix research.
The scientists are looking for poultry producers and retailers to join forces to comprehensively test alternative modified atmosphere gas blends.
Replacing carbon dioxide to avoid future shortages
Studies have been designed to provide information on the microbiological and sensory effects of the proposed mixes.
Campden BRI microbiologist Greg Jones is leading the project.
"The concept is a simple one: We will replace CO2 with gasses that can be achieved on standard production lines, such as nitrogen," he tells FoodIngredientsFirst.
Greg Jones, Campden BRI microbiologist. "The effects on shelf life will be measured from a sensory and microbiological perspective. All members of the project consortium will have access to the results as they are generated and will be able to act on them as they see fit," he explains.
Alternatives must be achievable using standard production equipment, as this project is designed to address what would hopefully be a short-term crisis, Jones continues.
"The project will deliver a body of evidence which can be drawn on by the project partners to aid them in planning the supply of poultry to retailers. The intention is to be able to smooth the transition to a temporary situation where a different gas mix is used before supply is re-established."
Testing shelf life
The company will test the shelf life and make the information available to the consortium.
Jones admits that although there is likely to be a reduction in shelf life when using a non-optimum gas mix, this need not be an issue.
"If that reduction is known in advance, then plans can be put in place to ensure a smoother transition to the new situation," he adds.
Closure of major fertilizer plant
CF Fertilisers recently said that soaring natural gas prices meant it would have to "temporarily halt" activity at its UK ammonia plant, which creates CO2 as a byproduct.
Many in the food and beverage industry have been closely monitoring the closure. There are growing calls for longer-term interventions to help make the CO2 market more resilient and stable.
This isn't the first time market conditions beyond the control of industry or government have led to the closure of fertilizer plants that supply food-grade carbon dioxide.
"Food products packaged in protective atmospheres, containing CO2, are at risk of a decrease in quality if there is another shortage. Having readily available information on the effects of changing the gas mix would be beneficial for these businesses," says Jones.
"At the moment, supply is good. However, high natural gas prices are now a fact of life and have caused the closure of a major fertilizer plant, which supplies food-grade CO2," Jones continues.
"Despite government assurances that interventions will occur to prevent supply shocks, there is nervousness within the industry regarding the reliability of supply. The risk will reduce when gas prices retreat. However, that seems a distant prospect at the moment," he says. Projects are underway to switch CO2 with new alternative gas mixes.
Reflecting on CO2 shortages
Earlier this week, 2 Sisters Food Group owner Ranjit Singh Boparan warned that beleaguered UK shoppers will ultimately pay the price for the ongoing carbon dioxide shortage, with further price rises on the horizon.
As supply chain shocks are more commonplace, the 2 Sisters Food Group wants to be part of the project to build resilience by testing alternative gas mixes.
"The idea is to have a set of results that can be used to show the effect on the shelf life of changing to an achievable gas mixture in a time of crisis," says Danica Hillson, technical director for UK Poultry at 2 Sisters Food Group.
"Having these results readily available will be extremely useful to demonstrate to our customers that although there may be a change to the shelf life of the product, we know what that change is and can plan accordingly. This project will be invaluable for addressing the risk to our business posed by another carbon dioxide shortage."
Jones concludes that Campden BRI frequently works with international partners and would welcome all with interest in MAP poultry to this project.
The research will begin later this year.

Back in 1994, Ray Anderson, the founder of Interface – one of the world's largest carpet manufacturers – challenged his employees to pursue a bold new vision: to "be the first company that, by its deeds, shows the entire world what sustainability is in all its dimensions: people, process, product, place and profits – and in doing so, become restorative through the power of influence". Using the inspiration its designers found in the natural world, Interface developed its 'Mission Zero' campaign, which aims for zero emissions, zero waste and zero oil by 2020.
During the last 20 years progress has been steady. Interface was there as the fledgling voluntary carbon offset market was established and in 2011 became the first carpet manufacturer to launch a product with 100 per cent recycled yarn. Since then the company has looked at ways to reduce not only the environmental impact of its own operations, but the full lifecycle of its products.
Waste reduction efforts have resulted in a 84% decrease in total waste to landfills from Interface carpet factories since 1996 and, as of 2012, seven of nine factories operated with 100% renewable energy and 36% of total energy usage was from renewable sources.
More recently, the European division of Interface has achieved some ground-breaking results: carbon emissions cut by 90% and water usage reduced by 95%. The trailblazing sustainability targets were achieved last month at Interface's European manufacturing facility in Scherpenzeel in The Netherlands.
The carpet manufacturer also unveiled that it was sourcing 100 per cent of its energy from renewable sources and had achieved zero waste to landfill at the Dutch site.
Arratia said Interface Europe had achieved the reductions through a number of innovations, including the switch to green gas. He said the company was paying a premium for the gas, but it was a cost the company could afford because of a series of efficiencies it had already implemented.
"We are achieving the 90 per cent carbon reduction with 60 per cent efficiencies and 30 per cent renewables, not the other way around," he said.
The green gas is being produced by anaerobic digestion of fish waste, which is then being turned into natural gas and pumped into the gas grid. The other main innovation adopted at the Dutch manufacturing facility to improve efficiencies has been a water recirculation system through closed loop piping.
How does your business compare? How could sustainability be improved?
At Alsco we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of our business and to finding more sustainable ways to serve our customers, through means such as our Evolution Recycled Rubber Mats range and the Ecosafe Parts Washer.
Our revolutionary Evolution Mats are made from recycled eco-friendly materials. The Alsco Ecosafe Washers are water based and exists in its own environment where oil and grease are transformed into water and carbon dioxide.
Interface's success serves as inspiration to continue our efforts to create a greener Alsco.

What: All Issues : Justice for All: Civil and Criminal : On confirming the nomination of Thomas Vanaskie to be a judge for the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals/On the nomination (2010 senate Roll Call 122)
On confirming the nomination of Thomas Vanaskie to be a judge for the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals/On the nomination
senate Roll Call 122 Apr 21, 2010
This vote was on confirming Thomas Vanaskie to be a judge for the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. No Republican spoke against his nomination, but Democrats hinted that some Republicans had concerns with the fact that Vanaskie had cited some foreign law in certain opinions he had written.
Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., complained that Republicans have repeatedly obstructed noncontroversial judicial nominees such as Thomas Vanaskie, who he said is more than qualified for the post.
"The vote on the confirmation of Judge Vanaskie's nomination is the first vote on judicial nominations that the Senate will hold in 5 weeks. Despite the dozens of judicial nominations ready for Senate consideration, none has been allowed to move forward for over a month to fill longstanding vacancies in the Federal courts. Of the 25 pending judicial nominations, 18 were reported from the Senate Judiciary Committee without any Republican Senator voting against. I have been urging the Senate Republican leadership for months to allow votes on these noncontroversial nominations and to enter into time agreements to debate the others. We need to clear the backlog of nominations and move forward," Leahy said.
By a vote of 77-20, the Senate confirmed Thomas Vanaskie. Every Democrat present voted for the nomination. Of Republicans present, 19 voted for the nomination and 20 voted against. The end result is that the Senate confirmed Thomas Vanaskie to be a judge for the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Alicia Heflin is very knowledgeable about immigration, in my case she was very prompt, reachable, and offered great expertise for my case. Very reasonable fee and payment plan. Highly recommended.


This newly reprinted Catechism for Children presents the truths of the Faith in a profound, but age-appropriate way, testing children differently depending upon their age and grade, all the while using the same text as the basis. Though written years ago, this book has sadly fallen into disuse, except for the Dominican Sisters at Post Falls, who have used this title in their education program for some years.
Each chapter of this attractive and partially illustrated catechism begins with a story from the Gospel to help root the lesson in the words and life of Our Lord. After the Gospel story, children will review questions from previous lessons, and then proceeds to the lesson itself. After the lesson there is a small reflection on how the catechism lesson applies to the life of the child, followed by a short prayer, a Gospel text, and excitingly, a relation of the catechism lesson to the Sacred Liturgy of the Church.
Put simply, this Catechism for Children is an excellent tool by which to teach the catechism, which will be a joy for parents, educators, and children alike.

Hi. I'm a father of four fabulous kids and teacher of teenagers and primary school children. I've escaped from full time school to also work for an educational charity and write world famous (nearly) novels and design scintillating strategy games.
I've trained (badly) in various martial arts over the years but now I focus on the less painful pastimes of racquet sports and writing.
I started writing at about twelve, inspired by a fantasy series by Stephen Donaldson. In November 2007, I had 500 copies of my Y/A supernatural action novel JASON WILLOW printed the old fashioned way. Luckily, only half a dozen copies are still boxed up in my garage. I leapt onto the P.O.D. bandwagon as it took off and have released the entire trilogy of Jason Willow novels as both paperback and ebook.
I'm now working on BATTLE – an Anglo-Saxon fantasy series, filled with action, complex relationships and stunning locations. The books will tie into a revolutionary new card game I'm designing – you'll be able to recreate the skirmishes and battles in the stories using a wide range of beautifully illustrated cards as well as set up your own conflicts.
You can discover more about all of my books and games and catch up with the latest developments on FaceBook.

Bend amateur radio expert Bill Johnson has died at 86
By Albert J. Hutchison on	 September 29, 2021 Amateur radio
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) – Veteran amateur radio operator William M. (Bill) Johnson, 86, of Bend, died on Monday, September 20. He was known to his amateur radio friends by his call sign, N7RGB.
Johnson was extremely active on local amateur radio repeaters, a system he helped build. His interest in electronics began at the age of 10, when he and his father built an AM radio receiver from a kit. This sparked a lifelong education and training effort that furthered his radio career.
In his early years he worked in two-way radio shops and was eventually hired by the State of Oregon for a 25-year career working on radio systems for ODOT and state police. from Oregon.
Johnson was selected as the 2016 Amateur Radio Operator of the Year by the High Desert Amateur Radio Group (HIDARG). Each year, the Board of Directors chooses a recipient for this special award. They are looking for a ham that has played a crucial role in the success of our local ham community. The recipient is someone who has shown a dedication to amateur radio that exceeds all expectations over a long period of time.
Bill Johnson was chosen for the award primarily for the years of service he provided to the team that designed and manufactured the Amateur Radio Repeater System spanning much of Oregon.
This extensive repeater system spans much of central and eastern Oregon. The main function is to provide emergency back-up communications. Agencies served include all central Oregon hospitals and all public safety agencies. The system consists of six radios at the top of the mountain, all linked together. Many sites are independent of the telephone and electricity networks. These sites operate on solar and wind energy, or on rechargeable battery systems.
Johnson was involved in the maintenance and repair of the entire system. He spent a lot of time visiting the sites on various mountain peaks supporting the system. He was involved in the operation and maintenance of the Emergency Communications Trailer that serves the Deschutes County Emergency Management Office and Sheriff's Office.
Johnson often shared stories of his risky trips to mountain tops on snowmobiles to maintain radios. Bill Johnson Retired in 1997 and became more than a "full time volunteer" with HIDARG and the Deschutes County / AUXCOMM Amateur Radio Emergency Service. He has also volunteered with Deschutes County Search and Rescue and the Oregon State Fire Marshal.
He always kept a complete kit in his truck for emergency communications or public events. He could set up an emergency communication station almost anywhere in a matter of minutes.
Johnson's other interests included motorcycles and square dancing… hobbies he shared with his wife, Wilma. Johnson is survived by his wife of 62 years, Wilma; Bend; daughter Cheryl Lynn Hamann, Eugene; son, Jeffrey Johnson, Bend; and her daughter, Kimberly Frier from Bend
A celebration of Johnson's life will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, October 2 at Foundry Church, 60 NW Oregon Ave, Bend.

Q: How to display response data ($http) from server in AngularJS How to display reponse data (get) from server in AngularJS
in my code I need to alert $scope.orders inside that controller but it willll not show..
function OrderController($scope,$http)
{
    var orderPromise = $http.get("../api/order");

    orderPromise.success(function(data, status, headers, config)
    {
        $scope.orders=data
        alert(JSON.stringify($scope.orders))  // First alert
    });

    orderPromise.error(function(data, status, headers, config)
    {
        alert("Error");

    });

    alert(JSON.stringify($scope.orders))    // Second alert
}

How can i access $scope.orders to outside the success fun()
Here I am alerting $scope.data in two times
In here First Alert is shown
but Second Alert is nothing to show why?
How to show second one?

A: Second alert will not show because there's nothing in $scope.orders when you alert it. That's the nature of asynchronous calls, only when you enter the success/error sections will you have something there (or not...).
Until the server returns your response and the success/error functions trigger, that variable is still unpopulated since $scope.orders=data hasn't run.
You should read the docs for some more info, and get some deeper understanding into how promises work.

The Flame and the Arrow by Emigh Cannady $ FREE
From the Jacket Copy:
"Don't do it, Annika," he taunted. His eyes were no longer bright and charming but dark and intense, yet they still twinkled. He was tempting, but was he harmful?
Aspiring rock star Annika Brisby thinks she knows where her life is going until she steps through a broken portal that leaves her stranded in a realm of fairies, vampires, and other mythical beings. Unable to return until it's repaired, she's rescued by wood nymphs who believe her sudden arrival is no accident. After being taken in by a prominent family of elves, Annika finds herself struggling to resist the seductive spell of their youngest son, Talvi. Equal parts arrogant and alluring, the notorious heartbreaker seems like the perfect distraction for her homesickness. Her new friends warn her that she'll probably regret ever laying eyes on him, and what begins as a casual fling quickly burns too hot to handle. By the time Annika learns the consequences of their forbidden trysts, Talvi's already under her skin and dangerously close to her heart. But on the journey home she discovers that there's a mountain of secrets that he's not telling her, and Annika can't help wondering who's really in danger.
* Previously titled Balkan Magic, The Misadventures of Annika Brisby
The top rated critical review says that its well written with great characters and the right amoun to detail but the reader didn't love the agnst. There does appear to be a love triangle.

Oil and Marble: A Novel of Leonardo and Michelangelo by Stephanie Storey $ 1.99
From 1501—1505, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo Buonarroti both lived and worked in Florence. Leonardo was a charming, handsome fifty year-old at the peak of his career. Michelangelo was a temperamental sculptor in his mid-twenties, desperate to make a name for himself.
Michelangelo is a virtual unknown when he returns to Florence and wins the commission to carve what will become one of the most famous sculptures of all time: David. Even though his impoverished family shuns him for being an artist, he is desperate to support them. Living at the foot of his misshapen block of marble, Michelangelo struggles until the stone finally begins to speak. Working against an impossible deadline, he begins his feverish carving.
Meanwhile, Leonardo's life is falling apart: he loses the hoped-for David commission; he can't seem to finish any project; he is obsessed with his ungainly flying machine; he almost dies in war; his engineering designs disastrously fail; and he is haunted by a woman he has seen in the market—a merchant's wife, whom he is finally commissioned to paint. Her name is Lisa, and she becomes his muse.
Leonardo despises Michelangelo for his youth and lack of sophistication. Michelangelo both loathes and worships Leonardo's genius.
Oil and Marble is the story of their nearly forgotten rivalry. Storey brings early 16th-century Florence alive, and has entered with extraordinary empathy into the minds and souls of two Renaissance masters. The book is an art history thriller.
Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
Well received critically and by readers. The Michaelangelo, Da Vinci, Raphael period might be the greatest in art of all time.
"Tremendously entertaining and "unapologetic" in its artistic license, "Oil and Marble" will remind an older generation of the pleasures of Irving Stone's art historical fiction."
–Maxwell Carter, The New York Times

In the past 24 hours, President Cyril Ramaphosa had to apologise for the poor state of the country's infrastructure before having first-hand experience of just how bad it is.
On Sunday, he spoke to national broadcaster the SABC on the sidelines of an election campaign appearance in Mahikeng to say sorry for some of the most severe power cuts South Africans have yet experienced.
On Monday morning, he joined commuters on a 45-minute train trip to Pretoria. Unexplained delays meant that the trip lasted more than three hours and he was late for a meeting of the governing party's leadership.
It's not an ideal situation for a man who is trying to convince voters to back his ANC in general elections in May, when many of them already blame the party for the country's inadequate public transport and failing power grid.
Having already said that he plans to restructure the power utility Eskom, Ramaphosa kept up his tough talk while stuck on the train. It's going to take more than that to convince potential voters.
Load shedding will move from stage 3 to stage 4 by midday on Saturday, Eskom announced.

Investor Insights
May 2021 Investor Report
Published: June 5, 2021Updated: August 5, 2021
By: Stash Graham
The month of May produced mixed results for the three major indexes, while the firm experienced relative outperformance across portfolios. The tech-heavy NASDAQ, which had been the outsized outperformer during the 2020 calendar year, continues to lag behind the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones industrial average. For May, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell -1. 3%. The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average produced modest positive returns generating +0.15% and +0.97%. Our Gold tracker position (Ticker: IAU) continued its recent outperformance by generating a +6.15% return for the month. Our commodity basket position (Ticker: PDBC) generated a +3.94% return for May. The 10-year United States Treasury ended the month as it began yielding approximately 1.59%.
The topic of de jour in financial markets over the last 60 days has been whether inflation is transitory or not. While we will not know the answer until the fall months, we can piece together data points variables that have a high correlation to sustainably high levels of inflation. A material increase in income/wages will need to be a necessary component, and a strong labor market generates higher salaries. The labor market in the United States will see some exciting developments over the Summer. Indiana became the 24th state to declare an end to the supplemental unemployment benefits publicly. Only four of the 24 states (Alaska, Mississippi, Texas, and Arizona) have opted out of the supplemental unemployment benefits exceed the national average for unemployment (6.1%). The remaining 20 states all have unemployment rates below the national average. There has been considerable debate surrounding the federal supplemental unemployment benefit that pays an extra $300 per week to recipients. By the middle of July, 42% of those currently unemployed and collecting unemployment benefits (approximately 6.5 million citizens) will lose a lot of cash flow relative to what they were pulling from the government. The average state unemployment benefit is roughly $330 per week, so to lose $300 per week, we feel, is material enough to see many people enter the job market and find employment. Indeed, one of the most popular jobs posting sites in the world started tracking job search activity beginning in the middle of April to see if there was a relationship between job search activity and a respective state's announcement of federal unemployment benefits termination. Predictably the job site company saw a 5% increase on the day after a state's announcement. Disappointingly, the job search increase starts to fall materially after one-week post announcement. The quick fall-off in job searches implies that we could see a month or two of meaningful employment increases after supplement benefits end, but the picture after that is cloudy at best.
On the income front, we notice a considerable decline in household income as the effects from the March stimulus checks subside. The income fall-off should not be surprising as we have witnessed these effects several times over the last year. What makes this different is that there is no expectation of further one-time checks from Capitol Hill. This dynamic has hidden many downside effects that the brief but deep COVID-19 recession brought. In no other recession in the history of the United States have we seen growth in household income. The University of Michigan consumer survey asks households about their finances. One of the crucial questions discusses their future financial situation. Since the late 1970s, only 6% of the time have there been months where more families stated their future financial situation would be worse than their current financial situation. During April and May, participants in the widely followed consumer survey said that their financial situation would worsen in the future and over the next year. Richard Curtin, the director of the University of Michigan consumer survey, stated that the May survey produced the lowest level in financial prospects in seven years. To bring this all full circle, we question whether inflationary will be sustainably strong over the next five years.
Please see the following updates on existing positions held at the firm:
CVS Health (Ticker: CVS)- The company reported a solid first quarter that sent the stock higher on earnings. CVS's sharp upswing in profitability in its Pharmacy Services and Health Care Benefits groups allowed it to raise its Fiscal Year 2021 EPS guidance to $7.56-7.68 from $7.39-7.55, providing the critical catalyst for the stock today. The company also continues to distinguish itself from its peers with superior financial performance. Pockets of weakness remain, including some lingering softness on the retail side, but the reaffirmation of the year-end guidance that came at the end of the month calms most concerns right now. Since our initiation, it has been a fantastic holding producing an unrealized gain of approximately 15% over the 60-90 period that we have held CVS.
American Tower (Ticker: AMT)- The cell tower mega-REIT announced that its board of directors had declared its quarterly cash distribution of $1.27 per share on shares of the company's common stock. The distribution is payable on July 9, 2021, to the stockholders of record at the close of business on June 18, 2021. This distribution represents a 2.4% increase in the quarterly dividend.
AT&T (Ticker: T)- The company announced a deal that will spin off their WarnerMedia assets to merge with Discovery, Inc (owner of channels HGTV, Animal Planet, etc.). AT&T leadership said that the WarnerMedia-Discovery transaction would significantly improve AT&T's financial flexibility by providing $43 billion (subject to adjustment) for debt reduction through a combination of cash, debt securities, and WarnerMedia's retention of certain debt. This debt reduction allows the company to progress toward the end-of-year 2023 leverage ratio target of less than 2.5x while increasing investment in 5G and fiber growth areas.
Dominion Energy (Ticker: D)- The mid-Atlantic-based utility had top and bottom beats when the company reported 1st quarter earnings during the first week in March. They reaffirmed the year-end guidance for the earnings ($3.70-$4 per share for 2021). The stock price for Dominion was down a couple of percentage points for the month, but we are comfortable with their growth pattern and their ability to achieve their targets. We attend to hold this regulated utility for the next several years and look forward to collecting the growing levels of dividends the corporate management team has committed to pay. We are encouraged by the performance of our investment positions over the last 3-4 months. As we enter the summer months, we will monitor several developments (chances of an infrastructure stimulus bill, a change in monetary policy due to inflationary pressures, the end of COVID-related Federal unemployment benefits, and many more) that could have a direct impact on investment portfolios. Your continued trust humbles us as we approach these events, and we will look to protect and grow your estate's assets accordingly.

Commission officials have rushed to step up negotiations with their US counterparts over a new deal to replace the Safe Harbour agreement, which the European Court of Justice knocked down on 6 October. Safe Harbour allowed the over 4,000 companies that signed onto it to transfer data legally from the EU to the US.
EU Justice Minister Vera Jourova is meeting with US officials over a new agreement during a trip to Washington next week.
Jourova said she would also meet with US Senators who will vote on the Judicial Redress Act that could give EU citizens' the same legal rights as Americans if their data is mishandled.
After the ECJ verdict, the Commission scrambled to assure European businesses that they could still transfer data to the US using other legal means, like standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules. Members of the 'Article 29' working party, the commission of national data protection authorities from EU member states, vowed at a plenary meeting last month to review those tools. The national authorities are meeting again in January.
The Commission published a set of guidelines on those measures today, which Ansip heralded as "providing clarity to our companies" on how to continue transferring data to the US.
Existing alternatives to Safe Harbour are still valid, according to the Commission. As a last resort, companies could transfer personal data to the US if they have a person's clear consent about the data transfer.
Guido Lobrano, deputy director for legal affairs at trade association BusinessEurope, said there were "no surprises" in the guidelines.
"But there is also no coordination at European level and that's what we asked for," Lobrano said.
The ECJ verdict gave national data protection supervisors new authority to decide on privacy cases. The Commission is pushing for the national regulators to agree on how they'll deal with data transfers, but its powers to influence the independent privacy officials are limited.
Last week, data protection authorities from Germany's Länder announced they would no longer allow data to be transferred to the US under standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules.
Many companies that bemoaned damage to business after the ECJ verdict said a new blanket agreement to replace Safe Harbour is the only way to restore the scale of data transfers that were allowed under the deal. The other tools, companies argue, are more complicated, expensive and would result in companies sealing several piecemeal agreements for their data transfers.
According to Lobrano, the Commission's plan to wrap up those talks within three months are too slow.
"We think they should be a bit more ambitious. They should aim at having an agreement before Christmas so they have a new framework in place by the beginning of 2016," he said.
Officials from the Commission's DG Justice are meeting on Monday (9 November) with BusinessEurope and other industry associations ahead of Jourova's trip to Washington.
According to today's guidelines, the Commission will start periodic reviews of the agreements it still has in place with 11 other countries—including Canada, Switzerland and Israel—that call their privacy laws up to EU standards. A change to those agreements could affect whether data can legally be transferred from the EU to those countries as well.
Commission officials argue that companies started investing in data storage centres in the EU even before the ECJ verdict. Following the German data protection authorities' statement last week, business groups fired back at Hamburg's privacy supervisor for suggesting companies consider storing Europeans' data within the EU.
German MEP Axel Voss (EPP), shadow rapporteur on the data protection regulation: "I appreciate the commitment made by the Commission to conclude negotiations with the US within three months. A new adequacy decision including a sound legal framework for the transfer of data to the US remains a key priority and provides the best solution for our companies and a less burdensome data transfer mechanism. However, the Standard Contractual Clauses and the Binding Corporate Rules are too general and they are not a real alternative solution for the immediate transfer of data, because these procedures are too time consuming. I regret that the Commission has not evaluated any encryption solutions for the transfer of data from the EU to the US."
Since then, the data protection debate took a new twist with revelations about US eavesdropping activities.
Whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed in 2013 that the NSA had secret wide-reaching authority to snoop on emails and internet communications using a data-mining programme called Prism.
European politicians reacted angrily to the news and called for stricter measures to ensure privacy.

Rep. Filner and Other State Officials Refuse to Endorse a Fil-Am Aspirant for Council Seat
Columns	- San Diego Happenings
D itas Yamane once railed against Filipinos who don't walk the talk. In meetings with officials of National City this past week, the vociferous members of a voters' coalition that unanimously voted to lobby for her were nowhere to be found. The very few who came ranted against another Filipino instead of strongly and unequivocally articulating their support for her. One councilman advised them to get their acts together behind a sole candidate. Another said she was happy to know Filipinos are trying to create political awareness for the community.
Another Contest in National City
Filipino Coalition Begins Lobby for Council Seat;
Filner, Other State Officials Dip Fingers in Local Politics
By Romeo P. Marquez
I ntense lobbying has begun to fill up an expected vacancy in the city council of National City with no less than Congressman Bob Filner (D-51st) dipping his fingers into what is emerging as one of the most hotly-contested seats in municipal politics.
The author is a member of the Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE), Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) and National Press Club of the Philippines-USA.
With Filipinos comprising 18 percent of the city's population, National City has become the favorite arena for Filipinos seeking public office, the Navy town also being the hub of business for most Filipino-owned establishments.
The vacancy will occur on January 5, 2009, yet when incumbent Councilman Luis Natividad relinquishes his elective post he has held in the last two years. Another two years remain of the office but Mr. Natividad said he has accepted a high-paying job in the federal government.
Congressman Filner's surprise endorsement of a daughter of his Hispanic aide, one of the seven potential aspirants for the soon-to-be vacant post, elicited an immediate response from Ditas Delos Santos Yamane, a Filipino businesswoman who lost in her third bid for the office in the Nov. 4 election.
By his acts, Ms. Yamane stated, Congressman Filner has "shown his disregard to our community many times already and we should not take this sitting down".
PHILIPPINE VILLAGE VOICE - Redefining Community News
BREAKING NEWS - Exclusive
Volume 2, Issue No. 28 / News Without Fear or Favor / A community service of San Diego's Philippine Village VoiceCongressman Filner spoke briefly last week (Tuesday, Dec. 16) at the National City Council meeting urging Mayor Ron Morrison and Councilmembers Frank Parra, Rosalie Zarate and Alejandra Sotelo-Solis "to do the right thing" and appoint Mona Rios to the seat.
A spokesperson for Congressman Filner, Alexis Gelperin, also announced that "State Senator Denise Ducheny and State Assemblywoman Mary Salas are also supporting Rios' appointment to the vacant seat".
Ms. Rios, daughter of Al Alvarado who is Mr. Filner's liaison to the Hispanic community, was third-placer in the Nov. 4 polls. Ms. Yamane landed fourth, trailing Ms. Rios by several votes. Another Filipino, the then incumbent Fidelis Ungab, took sixth place in the seven-way contest.
Ms. Yamane is endorsed by the newly-formed Filipino Voters' Coalition whose members unanimously voted to support her. Led by retired university professor Rizalino Oades, PhD, the coalition is the latest attempt to unify Filipino voters and create a potentially-strong voting bloc.
Professor Oades has stated earlier that his group will lobby for Yamane to be appointed councilwoman of National City. "I have no qualms Ditas Yamane is the best candidate for now," he declared before the jubilant members of the coalition.
However, during courtesy calls to the mayor and members of the city council last week, no more than five individuals showed up to lobby city officials. At one point during a meeting with Councilman Frank Parra, the latter advised his Filipino visitors to come together and work for one candidate.
Dr. Oades and his group railed against appointing a Filipino from the "old boys network:" -- which was a reference to Fidelis Ungab who held the office for four years by being appointed twice in a row -- rather than advocate strongly for Ms. Yamane.
In another meeting with Vice Mayor Alejandra Sotelo-Solis, Professor Oades said he felt embarrassed that Filipinos could not win elections in National City with their numbers.
"National City is almost a Filipino town and the feeling we have is to have proper representation," Dr. Oades told Solis without mentioning that he was lobbying specifically for Ms. Yamane.
"Our concern is, if there are other qualified Filipinos, why re-appoint an old one," Oades stressed, highlighting his displeasure with Mr. Ungab who he did not mention by name.
The unprecedented display of support by high officials for Ms. Rios might just be the spur to rouse Filipino voters to rally behind Yamane. # # #

College Hoops Returns Next Month on November 25
admin October 9, 2020 NCAA No Comments on College Hoops Returns Next Month on November 25
College football has continued with few pandemic interruptions, which is why it should surprise nobody that the National Collegiate Athletic Association is ready to start the 2020-2021 College Basketball Season next month. November 25, the day before Thanksgiving, is the proposed start date.
Although some might scoff at the idea, universities in the United States lean on sports to run various other programs. College football will always remain the king. The top four profitable college football programs, Alabama, Michigan, Georgia, and Texas, gained at least $111 million in profit in 2017. Texas, first on the list, profited an incredible $143 million.
There will never come a time when college basketball exceeds college football in revenue. College hoops do, though, provide massive overall revenue. When the NCAA decided to cancel the 2020 Men's College Basketball Tournament, college sports' governing body missed out on $933 million in ad revenue. The NCAA planned to distribute at least $600 million of the $933 million to 1,200 schools across all divisions.
Las Vegas sportsbooks also took a massive hit. Per the Nevada Gaming Control Board, in March 2019, sportsbooks attracted $349 million in basketball wagering action. Michael Lawton, a Nevada Gaming Control Board analyst, estimated that 70% of that action was on the NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament.
For many, not just college basketball fans, November 25 can't come soon enough. With that in mind, let's take a look at the early preseason Top 5. The coronavirus pandemic affected upcoming player participation for many of the top teams. Duke, Kansas, Michigan State, and Kentucky, perennial preseason Top 5 teams, aren't ranked higher than 7th before this season's first game.
2020-2021 College Basketball Preseason Top 5
1. Gonzaga – The Bulldogs are so confident that they've scheduled Baylor and Iowa, a couple of other Top 5 ranked teams, early in the season. The roster includes player of the year candidate Corey Krispert and 7' 0" sophomore Pavel Zakharov. Like Krispert, Joel Ayayi is a junior who could dominate. Coach Mark Few also added four Top-100 prospects.
2. Baylor – The Bears spent plenty of weeks ranked number one last season. Baylor returns their three top scorers, including Jared Butler, who averaged over 16 points per. Mark Vital is one of the top defensive players in the nation.
3. Villanova – Coach Jay Wright lost the best player on Villanova's 2020 team, Sadiq Bey. Sadiq could be a Top 10 NBA Draft pick, though. So, it's hard to knock his decision, especially given that they canceled the 2020 NCAA Tournament. Everyone else on Nova's squad returns, making Wright's team one of the best in college basketball. Also, anyone who follows college hoops' knows how awesome Jay is at recruiting players to fit Villanova's system. He doesn't get the highest-rated players. Wright recruits players that help the Wildcats win championships.
4. Virginia – The Cavaliers are poised to overtake Duke and North Carolina as the perennial top team from the Atlantic Coast Conference this season. Coach Tony Bennett gets to see what Sam Hauser can do. The former Marquette player had to sit out the 2020 season due to eligibility requirements. As a Golden Eagle, Hauser averaged 14.9 points and 7.2 boards. Once again, Bennett should send the most defensive efficient team in college hoops to the court.
5. Iowa – The Hawkeyes have the Naismith Player of the Year Award front runner in Luka Garza. The 6' 11" junior power forward averaged 23.9 points, 9.8 boards, and 1.2 assists last season. Garza probably would have been a Top 5 pick in the draft if he had chosen to go to the NBA. Why he didn't is anybody's guess. Iowa coach Fran McCaffrey isn't complaining.
Odd should be out in the next few weeks on which one of these squads has the best shot of winning the 2021 Men's NCAA College Basketball Tournament. Gonzaga had dominated the 2020 regular season. They figure to offer odds close to even money. Anybody who wishes to wager on Gonzaga to win the National Championship has options.
They can either go through a Vegas sportsbook, a local bookie, or an online sportsbook. If they decide to wager via the local bookie route, they can rest assured that most bookmakers now offer free betting software. Bookie software allows bookmakers to become pay per head sportsbook agents. By doing so, bookies can offer whatever odds they wish. That means players who want to wager on a team like Gonzaga can ask for better odds than what an online sportsbook or Vegas book offers.
The NBA said that their upcoming season wouldn't start before Christmas. Professional basketball hoop fans can warm-up for the Lakers, Heat, Clippers, Celtics, and the rest by supporting college basketball's new season starting on November 25.

This is where press releases on COELAN Boat Coating are, including information on write-ups and test results reports.
COELAN Boat Coating has been rated the world's most effective and durable varnish. This is from the short - term and long - term results from tests that have been done by yacht and ship manufacturers including other stakeholders in marine industry. The tests reveal that COELAN is a robust, long - lasting product with superior traits. Boating magazines have explained how COELAN Boat Coating's performances under harsh environments, where surfaces are exposed to the elements continuously, are. Tests done by Classic Boat Magazine assessed COELAN Boat Paint's performance for a duration of many years comparing it with many other finishing products in different conditions. Various tests were done, with manufacturer's directions being followed closely. The first tests were conducted in UK and other tests were done under harsh conditions in tropical oceans.
Class Boat Magazine found out that COELAN Boat Coating did impressively. The coating remained undamaged and weathered well for duration of many years while retaining gloss and translucency.
Classic Boat Magazine's tests that were conducted for a long-term showed that many products from the competitors required refinishing after about two years. COELAN, on the other hand, remained undamaged and good-looking even after seven and a half years of continued exposure to harsh elements. The excellent performance of COELAN has made it popular among private boat owners and boat builders.
Top-notch blue-water-sailing yacht builders that include Oy Nautor AB of Finland, the manufacturers of Nautor's Swan, line of fiberglass yachts, and Hallberg-Rassey of Sweden, decided to choose COELAN, specifically because of its extraordinarily durability and high quality. Applying COELAN Marine Coatings on vessels that are heavily worked and continuously exposed, for example public transport vessels, such as, commercial ships, luxury charter yachts, and cruise liners, can lead to large savings in form of maintenance labor costs and materials. The reduced need to maintain and recoat the surfaces makes COELAN an environmentally friendly product.

Employees test the quality of Nescafé instant coffee at the Nestlé production site in Orbe
Your fix of morning joe likely passed through Switzerland, since the country is the world's trading hub for coffee. In fact, the Swiss export more coffee than chocolate or cheese.
"Most coffee traders are present in Switzerland," said Cyrille Jannet, vice president of the Swiss Coffee Trade Associationexternal link, in an interview to Swiss public radio RTS last year.
"This is also the case for the big names in the industry, like Nestlé or Nespresso. Also present are the main participants in the chain on a logistics level, like maritime transport. This had led to Switzerland becoming the main hub for the coffee trade, from trade to industry."
Switzerland is already home to many important companies trading in raw materials (for example: gold, petrol), thanks to its favourable tax situation and its central position in Europe.
Six of the world's main coffee traders are based in the Lake Geneva or Zurich regions.
As is often the case for raw materials, precise statistics are hard to come by. But estimates show that between 60-70% of the global coffee trade takes place in Switzerland and that it represents around 1% of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
More than chocolate
But more precise data is available when it comes to the volume and value of the import and export of coffee, because these are real products that pass over the border.
In its penultimate annual report on Swiss foreign trade, the Federal Customs Administration focused on the "food, beverage and tobacco" sector, which accounts for 4% of Swiss exports. It stated that coffee was "a flagship product" with a value of CHF2.1 billion ($2.2 billion) in 2015, or around one-quarter (25.8%) of sales in the whole sector.
This is far more than with exports of products traditionally associated with Switzerland, like chocolate and cheese.

Exports for 2015 in the food, beverage and tobacco sector
Customs statistics also show that coffee exports have risen sharply over the past decade. The global boom in coffee capsules is partially responsible, and sector leader Nestlé produces such capsules exclusively in three factories in Switzerland (Avenches, Romont and Orbe).
In terms of imports, 139,238 tonnes of coffee reached Switzerland last year, with a value of CHF379 million. The two main suppliers are Brazil (29%) and Colombia (17%).
Big coffee consumers
But Switzerland is not just heading the statistics in terms of trade and production. Its inhabitants are also among the biggest consumers of coffee in the world, according to the International Coffee Organizationexternal link.
