Vacancies STAGES IN OTHER EU INSTITUTIONS Although the European Commission offers by far the greatest number of in-service training placements for young graduates, other EU institutions also take small numbers of stagiaires. General conditions and eligibility criteria are broadly similar to those for the Commission stage scheme, but if you are interested you should check with the institutions concerned, as there may be slight variations. The European Parliament The European Parliament offers EU nationals aged between 18 and 45 a number of schemes enabling them to spend time working in its Secretariat. The traineeships fall into two categories: paid traineeships - Robert Schuman scholarships awarded to university graduates for a period of five months in one of three options (language, journalism or general); unpaid traineeships and study visits: unpaid traineeships are offered for a period of one to four months and study visits for one month;
Structural Funds - SOP HRD - General Information SOP HRD general information. In order for the Member States of the european european Social Fund may be also used to finance projects which meet the http://www.funduszestrukturalne.gov.pl/English/European Social Fund/
Extractions: In order for the Member States of the European Union to use structural funds it is necessary to create a series of documents. The first one is the National Development Plan â a document defining goals of the countryâs social and economic development and the methods of achieving it. Operational programmes are meant to implement it. Sectoral Operational Programme Human Resources Development is one of such programmes in Poland. Its provisions are detailed in the Programme Complement. A good knowledge of both those documents is necessary to prepare an application for financing of a project implementation and project management. The main objective of SOP HRD is: âthe development of an open, knowledge-based society through provision of conditions facilitating human resources development by gaining education, undergoing training and performing workâ. The implementation of this objective will contribute to raising the competitiveness of economy based on knowledge and entrepreneurship. A harmonious development of the economy is to ensure an increase of employment and achievement of social, economic and space cohesion with the European Union on the regional and national levels.

Extractions: European Wasp, Vespula germanica . Photo: B Carson-Ewart The European Wasp is easily distinguished from native wasps by its vivid yellow and black markings. It is a native of Europe, North Africa and Asia Minor. In Australia, the first European Wasps were found in Tasmania in 1959. By 1978 they had also been found in Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales and Western Australia. They are now firmly established in metropolitan Sydney, and are also found in Bowral/Moss Vale, the Blue Mountains, Narrandera, Deniliquin, Albury, Wagga, Coleambally, Griffith, Dareton, Junee, Forbes, Coonabarabran, Orange, Bathurst and West Wyalong. European Wasps are also present in New Zealand. European Wasps are a stout wasp with a bright yellow and black banded abdomen, and a pair of black spots on each yellow band. They have two pairs of clear wings with the first pair larger and the body is about 1.2 cm - 1.5 cm long. They have black antennae and fly with their legs held close to the body. European Wasps are found in large communal nests, normally only visible as a small entrance hole. They are normally built either underground or in cavities in walls, ceilings, logs or trees. The nests are made from chewed wood fibre. Worker wasps leave the nest in search of food, and are attracted to meats, sweet food and drink.

Extractions: I would like to thank the chair for inviting me to this important meeting to discuss the significant challenges of cyber crime that face all of us. I am especially pleased to meet with my esteemed colleagues in the European Union, and with the distinguished high-tech experts from both industry and government here today, to discuss our shared goal of making cyber space safe and secure for everyone. The Three Prongs of Cooperation In these cases law enforcement is impeded by national borders in ways that criminals simply are not. While the Internet may be borderless for criminals, law enforcement agencies must respect the sovereignty of other nations. As a result, we are increasingly dependent on cooperation with foreign law enforcement agencies in fighting computer crime. Unfortunately, differing legal systems and disparities in the law often present major obstacles in our efforts. The failure of a country to criminalize computer-related offenses is one such obstacle. When one country's laws criminalize certain activities on computers and another country's laws do not, cooperation in solving a crime and prosecuting the perpetrator may not be possible. That is, when a criminal weaves his communications through three, four, or five countries before reaching his intended victims, inadequate laws in just one of those countries can, in effect, shield that criminal from law enforcement around the world. Take the recent investigation of the "Love Bug" virus, for example. Although our investigators continue to work closely with investigators in the Philippines, international coordination would have proceeded more quickly and effectively had there existed common computer crime laws between our countries.

Extractions: Brussels, Belgium During a meeting between FDA and the Enterprise Directorate General of the European Commission, in Brussels, Belgium, in October 1999, representatives of both agencies gathered in a "breakout" meeting to discuss international activities related to cosmetics. The subjects included the progress of a memorandum of cooperation (MOC), animal testing, ultraviolet (UV) filters, color additives, labeling, future steps, safety issues, priorities at FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), safety substantiation, and harmonization in Latin America. The MOC had been reviewed by the European Union (EU) and US administrations and comments were received from FDA legal counsel. It was determined some additional work would be needed to finalize the MOC. In light of the development of an MOC encompassing the four administrations (US, EU, Japan, and Canada) of the Cosmetic Harmonization and International Cooperation (CHIC) initiative, it was decided that the current MOC would be developed as a bilateral document that could be expanded after consideration by Canada and Japan. It was agreed that the bilateral MOC should be implemented as soon as possible to ensure accomplishment of specific initiatives identified at the November, 1998 bilateral meeting and at this meeting.

(e-mail; prehist@ulg.ac.be) Key words: Archaeology, Palaeoenvironment, Linguistics, Indo-European. Introduction While both the 'Battle-Axe' and the 'Farming Wave' hypotheses have much to merit them, it is important to bear in mind that they may not be the only reasonable explanations in terms of what is known of the pre-history of Europe and western Asia, against a background of emvironmental changes. The possibility that the initial dispersal event of the Indo-European languages involved not neolithic farmers nor bronze-age warriors, but mesolithic hunter-gatherers has been mentioned briefly by several authors (e.g. Renfrew 1987). However, none seems to have given the idea more than a passing thought. Here we aim to discuss this idea in greater depth, examaining what is known of the climate record and the archaeological record, together with general ecological principles of populations, to determine whether this hypothesis stands up to more detailed analysis. How languages may spread due to climate instability As well as acting as a source of genetic shifts in population composition, the 'sampling error' caused by contraction of populations, followed by exponential expansion of populations out from refuge areas, could tend to provide waves of linguistic and cultural uniformity to spread across the region. Just such a wave of population out of the Near East may have carried Indo-European languages across much of Europe and part of the way eastward into central Asia.

Extractions: The Library of Congress Especially for Researchers Research Centers Home ... Collections Russian Find in European Division Pages Researchers Web Pages All Library of Congress Pages Harold M. Leich, Russian Area Specialist The Library of Congress currently holds about 700,000 physical volumes (books, sets, continuations, and bound periodicals) in Russian, and approximately the same number of volumes in other languages of the former USSR and volumes in Western languages about Russia and the former Soviet Union. There are also significant collections of other non-book print materials (music scores, newspapers, microforms and cartographic materials) and non-print materials (sound recordings, motion pictures, manuscripts, photographs, and posters), although statistics on these categories of holdings are less readily available. LC's Russian collection is by far the largest and most comprehensive outside Russia itself, even though by policy current collecting over the past fifty years was and remains highly selective, designed to bring in only the most useful and scholarly publications from and about Russia. Moreover, because of decades of communist censorship, political manipulation, appallingly poor storage conditions, and neglect of libraries in Russia, and because of LC's automation and preservation programs and the number of staff members involved in building, servicing, and interpreting the Russian collections, it is highly likely that the Library of Congress is the best single repository on earth in which to conduct research on Russia using published sources.

For websites primarily in either Dutch or French, the name has been given in the primary language, with an English translation in the accompanying annotation. For websites equally in both Dutch and French, an English name has been given instead for the sake of brevity. It is a common practice for many websites created in non-English speaking countries to provide an interface not only in the national language(s) but also in English in order to reach an international audience. Keep in mind that such bilingual (or multilingual) websites are often most complete in the national language.
