The modernisation of the existing EU framework for personal data protection is necessary in order to fulfil the obligation incumbent on the EU legislator by virtue of Article 16 TFEU. It is also an essential element of delivering effective protection of the fundamental rights of EU citizens to privacy and personal data protection set out in Articles 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights ...

We investigate high-pressure induced phase transitions of YF3 and Eu-doped YF3 (YF3:Eu(3+)) by using the angular dispersive synchrotron X-ray diffraction technique at room temperature. It is found that the starting orthorhombic phase transforms into a new high-pressure phase which is identified as hexagonal structure in both YF3 and YF3:Eu(3+). The high-pressure structure of YF3 and YF3:Eu(3+) ...

This report aims to provide an overview of the intensity of work and work satisfaction in Korea by comparing the first Korean Working Conditions Survey with the results of the fourth European Working Conditions Survey in 2005. According to the comparison, Korean workers work longer hours than workers in the majority of EU countries. However, work intensity in the EU 27 was 1.5 times stronger th...

Does Joining the EU Make You Happy? Evidence from Bulgaria and Romania* We examine the effect of joining the European Union on individual life satisfaction in Bulgaria and Romania in the context of the 2007 EU enlargement. Although EU membership is among the most important events in Bulgaria and Romania’s modern histories, there is no evidence on how it affected the subjective well-being of ord...

In the title one-dimensional coordination polymer, [Eu(C(8)H(5)N(2)O(2))(3)](n), the Eu(III) ion is eight-coordinated by the carboxyl-ate O atoms of six ligands in a distorted monocapped penta-gonal-bipyramidal geometry. The ligands link Eu(III) ions, forming helical chains parallel to the c axis, with Eu⋯Eu separations of 4.0678 (11) Å. The chains are further inter-connected by N-H⋯N hydrogen ...

In Poland’s region of Opole Silesia, ethnic Germans constitute one-third of the populace. Most of them (re-)acquired German citizenship in the 1990s. This also meant obtaining EU citizenship. Thus, they form the largest compact group of German/EU citizens residing outside Germany/the EU. Should Poland join the EU with too long a derogation period on the free movement of its citizens throughout ...

The major markets for ornamental fish are the Far East, the United States of America and the European Union (EU). Although the Far East is the principal source of both supply and demand for ornamental species, there is considerable movement of fish between these three areas. The author makes a detailed appraisal of the sources of supply and the destination for imports into EU Member States. Som...

the objective of the present investigation was to design a sustained release floating microcapsules of theophylline using two polymers of different permeability characteristics; eudragit rl 100 (eu rl) and cellulose acetate butyrate (cab) using the oil-in-oil emulsion solvent evaporation method. polymers were used separately and in combination to prepare different microcapsules. the effect of d...

Edema of the uvula (EU) is a rare occurrence sometimes associated with angioedema, urticaria, and anaphylaxis. We analyze the causes, predisposing factors, and characteristics of EU in a group of 58 patients with a mean (SD) age of 48.2 (15.2) years over the course of a year. Of the 58 patients studied, 49 (84.5%) were male and 44 (75.9%) presented isolated EU. Thirty-two patients (55.1%) with ...
