Midday Express Refugee Crisis: European Commission awards €35 million to Sweden, €8 million to Finland and €5 million to Belgium in emergency funding The European Commission has awarded €35 million to Sweden, €8 million to Finland and €5 million to Belgium in emergency funding to support these countries in managing the high influx of asylum seekers. The funding comes from the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF). In all three cases, the funding will be used to address the immediate needs of asylum seekers, mainly for accommodation and provision of food. This brings the overall amount of emergency funding awarded to EU Member States this year to over €222 million (from both the AMIF and ISF emergency funds). The Commission's emergency funding comes on top of the basic allocations under the AMIF national programme, where Sweden will receive € 118.5 million, Finland will receive €23.48 million and Belgium will receive € 89.25 million to finance migration related actions in 2014-20.

Terminology Extraction Introduction Terminology is the sum of the terms which identify a specific topic. Extracting terminology is the process of extracting terminology from a text. The idea is to compare the frequency of words in a given document with their frequency in the language.

Le Conseil Européen de l'Information sur l'Alimentation (EUFIC) : Votre guide en matière de sécurité & qualité alimentaires ainsi qu’en santé & nutrition pour une alimentation équilibrée et un style de vie sain. Vers la recherche alimentaire durableOver the past decade, most EU Member States have identified food and health as key priorities. This is in response to increases in obesity and diet-related chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases amongst their populations. Also an insufficient nutrient supply in subgroups of the populations and special demands in ageing societies are identified as abiding challenges.En savoir plus Alignement des recommandations concernant les nutriments EURRECA is a collaborative network developing quality assured, harmonised nutrient recommendations across Europe.

PARLEMENT EUROPEEN - Réponse à question E-005065-15 Toxicity of food products on the European market Approximately 3% of the food products on the European market have been found to contain pesticides in an amount that exceeds the legal limit, and in half of those cases, even when measurement uncertainties were taken into account, the amount recorded was much higher than that permitted. These statistics are among the findings of the 2013 annual report on pesticide residues in food recently published by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), which, over the course of that year, tested 81 000 food samples taken from 27 EU Member States. Even though the percentage of samples found to exceed the legal limits has fallen compared to 2010 (when the same tests were conducted), the findings are still not at all reassuring for consumers, who remain at risk from short-term food poisoning.

PARLEMENT EUROPEEN - Réponse à question E-007889-16 Notifying national agencies of shipments of animal origin, unprocessed vegetables and unprocessed fruits Legislation has recently been passed in Wales that requires all shops and businesses serving or selling food to display, at the entrance, a certificate of inspection by the local authorities regarding food hygiene and environmental health. Hygiene inspections for businesses that handle foods were introduced in Great Britain in November 2010 and entrusted to local authorities, in collaboration with the Food Standards Agency, which publishes all inspection results on its website, including those relating to businesses that decide not to display their results to the public. Until a few days ago, displaying this certificate was voluntary throughout the whole of Great Britain. This has now been made compulsory, but only in Wales.

100 days of web mining In this experiment, we collected Google News stories at regular 1-hour intervals between November 22, 2010, and March 8, 2011, resulting in a set of 6,405 news stories. We grouped these per day and then determined the top daily keywords using tf-idf, a measurement of a word's uniqueness or importance. For example: if the word news is mentioned every day, it is not particularly unique at any single given day. In-Cosmetics 2012: Genomics, Holistic Approaches and Old Favorites With a Twist BARCELONA—Personal care was taken very personally at in-cosmetics in Barcelona, April 17–19, 2012, as ingredient developers took R&D to a painstaking level of detail: the genome. While the study of gene expression is by no means new, and the concept of epigenomics has previously emerged at conferences and in research at universities and large manufacturers, it has materialized in the mainstream as the basis for many new cosmetic active launches. In fact, during the event, the editors of Cosmetics & Toiletries interviewed several attendees who noted the highly advanced methods being used by raw material suppliers. However, the specificity of such techniques does not necessarily limit one to the development of one active for one function.

PARLEMENT EUROPEEN - Réponse à question E-008709-16 Dual-quality foodstuffs Recent press reports have again brought to light the issue of dual-quality foodstuffs, whereby foods sold in identical or similar packaging vary in their composition depending on where they are sold. Brand-name foodstuffs have been found to contain different ingredients in different Member States. Foods which consumers may assume to be identical can vary in composition and in the quality of their ingredients(1). There is a concern that consumers are being misled when brand-name foodstuffs, packaged by global brands using internationally recognised logos, vary in content and quality.
