    New Refugee Agency Announced in Eltebena

    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Warrnambool-campus

    Prime Minister Mathew Wyong officially announced a new Eltebian Refugee Agency today to be called the 'Eltebian Refugee Agency'. The proposed design of the headquarters is pictured above.

    "This represents a further step towards this government's commitment to humanitarian aid," Mr Wyong said.

    The new organisation aims to provide shelter for refugees by working with Eltebena's neighbours to provide shelter for displaced people and look at resettlement options. The ERA will initially employ 500 people, however that number is expected to increase to 4000 in two years.

    Commentators have praised the governments move and have said that it was long overdue. However, some have speculated that the Prime Minister has only made this move as an attempt to score political points with the electorate in light of the conflict between New Caucasoid and the United Kingdom of Zackalantis. The Prime Minister refuted these accusations saying that his government had a genuine desire to make a difference in the world and that this was probably "just a rumor spread by the opposition in order to discredit the government."

    After approval by the European Parliament with an overwhelming majority, the Government may finally launch officially in the new National Plan for Industrial Innovation.
    A new package of laws that create a new institutional framework, which aims to create a fast and efficient bureaucracy, as well as to form a favorable environment for entrepreneurship and that will push companies to invest in innovation. But not only, as there are a number of new policies, subsidies and massive government investment to support industrial innovation, especially in small and medium enterprises.
    The package, very substantial, was presented to the domestic and foreign journalists in a press conference held at the lunch hour, where he was exposed point by point. To guarantee the usual European transparency, the new measures were published online in full, so that every citizen can read them and evaluate them.

    But why the nation need a strong government support for industrial innovation?
    Innovation is one of the central determinants of competitiveness and growth of the countries. Even more so in this time of increasing globalization and integration of national economic systems. The innovative mechanism is, in turn, rapidly evolving and is quickly adapting to the new global environment while at the same time, it is one of the main factors of change. This mechanism microeconomic translates easily into its corresponding at the aggregate level where the growth of the company replacing the growth of the country. The effectiveness of the mechanism (for example in terms of productivity more ele-vated), the same investment in R&D, depends on, among other things, the availability and quality of human capital, by appropriate financial instruments (such as venture capital ) and a ratio between fertile and university research system, direct and indirect public support and the enterprise system.

    The new provision allows to unlock hundreds of billions of government investment, which will in turn enable greater industrial innovation, and therefore growth and development for the European industrial system. The all accentuated by the new policies (in particular partnerships between universities and enterprises, research centers, etc..) and a new institutional structure that creates a climate conducive to entrepreneurship. In short, the new Plan will allow a massive economic growth and a massive economic and technological development of the industry.

    Agency for Industrial Innovation
    With the new laws of creation of an ad hoc agency,the Agency for Industrial Innovation,through which the Government intend to promote specific "Mobilizers Program for Industrial Innovation" of inter-ministerial nature, aimed at supporting the industrial development of "precompetitive" and strengthen public engagement in research.
    The Agency is placed under the control of the Ministry of Economic Development.

    The Agency is a public industrial and commercial organization whose mission is to promote and support major projects of technological innovation. The Agency funds projects with a high technological content and precompetitive nature, in which the public-private cooperative aspect is of paramount importance.

    National Agency for Research
    The National Agency for Research is a body of law in place under the administrative supervision of the Ministry of Economic Development, aims to promote the development of theoretical and applied research, support innovation and cooperation between the public and private sectors, contributing also to the transfer of public research results to the industrial world. The Agency supports and develops the strategic guidelines for research policy adopted by the Government and must meet the attainment of its objectives set.

    Agency for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education
    In the new architecture of the European research system is given a very important role in the evaluation process of the research in accordance with the requirements of independence, consistency and transparency.
    The new laws provides that "all projects and programs funded with public funds should be systematically evaluated (ex-post) and the results of the assessment should be made public".

    To do so is then created the Agency for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education,a public authority with an independent character.
    The Agency is responsible for the evaluation of research activities carried out by public bodies (including the university hospital centers) and to establish criteria for evaluating researchers.
    Its main objective is to improve the mechanisms for the selection and approval of projects to finance (or public co-financing), through the monitoring and analysis of research. These mechanisms are based on a rigorous process of evaluation and monitoring (not just ex-ante, but also ex post) of the projects.

    Body for Assistance and Financing of Innovative Activities
    The Body is a public body of industrial and commercial character, place under the tutelage of the Ministry of Economic Development. Its objective is to promote and support SMEs to the growth and development of industrial and technological development.
    It consists of three distinct sectoral bodies: Innovation Sector (support for innovation and technology transfer); Funding Sector (investment financing, in partnership with leading banking financial intermediaries); Sector Guarantees (guarantee of bank loans). It has a strong network of regional offices to provide assistance and support to all companies in the nation.

    Regional Delegations for Research and Technology
    The Regional Delegation for Research and Technology (RDRT) are appointed by decree of the Ministry of Economic Development and refer to the Ministry itself.

    The RDRT are in charge of the decentralized state in the areas of research, technology and innovation for the dissemination of scientific and technical culture.

    Mobilizers Programs for Industrial Innovation
    The main objective of MPIIs (Mobilizers Programs for Industrial Innovation) is to support great programs for industrial innovation highly qualified through the intervention of public funds and including measures of co-financing by large companies, in compliance with the European legislation. This allows you to share the risk of investment in the production of a good or service to compose innovative and strong proponents to help companies reach a size such that they can compete at international level.

    The programs are managed by the IIA (Industrial Innovation Agency) and by the Body for Assistance and Financing of Innovative Activities, which can thus support all economic sectors, including nuclear, space, defense and technology platforms. The State finances from 50% up to 75% of expenditure on R&D in the form of grants and repayable advances. In turn, companies need to finance the remaining half of the costs of the program and provide the coordination of the execution phase.

    The beneficiaries are the medium-sized and large enterprises in high-technology sectors in a public-private partnership that also involves universities and research centers. This partenariatopermette also share and exchange information and expertise between the public and private sectors. The programs are designed to last from 5 to 10 years for an amount starting from € 20 million a year for the project. Their main goal is to promote the development of industrial innovation.

    Poles of Competitiveness
    Poles of Competitiveness are one of the essential elements of the policy implemented by the European Government to revive the industry and the system of research and innovation. They favor the public-private partnerships and stimulate synergies between actors operating at local level in the context of industry, research and training on innovative projects in geographic considerations. These partnerships are designed around products or sectors with high technological and scientific content, also have the objective of increasing the dynamism and attractiveness of the European territories, in response to growing international competition and the phenomenon of relocation.

    The Poles are a model of public-private cooperation, in which the channel funding is used by the central government and local agencies to address the research activities. The governance of this system is entrusted to the private sector, namely manufacturers participating in the academic initiatives of the poles, sometimes in collaboration with local authorities.

    Once initiated, through public notifications who evaluate them according to certain criteria (eg return to employment, land development and creation of new assets),the Poles receive substantial government funding. Of course the projects are kept under tight control by the government agencies, and companies involved cooperate with local authorities.

    The presentation tool of the project is the book of commitment that is filed with the local authorities. In it, for it to be approved , must be expressed clearly :
    • a strong anchoring of the project to the local economy; the Poles must therefore provide a development strategy focusing on efficiency and competitiveness at international level;
    • consistency of the Pole and the strategy prepared when compared to the territorial development plan;
    • the international visibility on the business plan and/or technological. The projects submitted must be able to place within a given time interval at the highest level on the world stage;
    • a definition and a detailed structuring of the governance of the partnership. The quality and efficiency of the ties between the partners identified (industrialists,researchers,teachers) are the main criteria to receive the "mark";
    • projects in degrees to promote synergies in research and development and contribute to the creation of added value. The ultimate goal is indeed to improve the competitiveness and the European offer on international markets.

    The Young Innovative Companies
    The assignment of the new legal status of Young Innovative Enterprise allows to create a tax system more attractive to businesses that have less than eight years of life (defined as "young") and which are heavily involved in R&D. Regarding the conditions for obtaining this status, it is necessary that the capital belongs to individuals for a minimum of 75% and that the investment in R&D is not less than 15% of total costs. The device has two types of measures. The first, highly innovative,is exempting,for a period of eight years,from social security payments to the staff involved in R&D projects the second provides for exemption from local taxes,from the corporate tax,from surplus value and from other taxes.

    Tax Exemptions
    The new laws also provides tax advantages in favor of all the companies that innovate, regardless of size,of years of the life of the enterprise and of business sector. It lays down measures aimed specifically at projects of young innovative enterprises. These consist of exempting from tax on all investments in R&D,in the reduction of depreciation rates of investments,and in extension of the Tax Credit for Research,to all companies who invest large sums in R&D.

    Networks for Research and Technological Innovation
    The law provided for innovation finally the creation of Networks for Research and Technological Innovation (NRTI) with the aim of fostering collaboration between public and private research, jointly promoting the development of products and services in priority areas for business growth.

    Each network is managed by an Orientation Committee, consisting of representatives of the industrial and public research, with the task of defining priority actions and to examine the proposed projects.

    Its role is mainly directed to the emergence of collaborative projects on topics of priority interest. Calls for proposals and certified the best projects. The projects supported by the NRTI may be eligible for government funding covering up to 70% of total costs.

    Specifically, the Ministry of Economic Development has created NRTIs for four themes: National Network for Research in Telecommunications; National Network of Research on Micro and Nano-Technologies; the National Network on Software Technology and the Network of Research and Innovation on Audiovisual and Multimedia.

    Centres of Research and Higher Education
    The new laws introduced the PRHS (Poles of Research and Higher Education) and CRHE (Campus for Research and Higher Education), two instruments sharing of research between public and private organizations, territorial neighbors, with a view of improving the effectiveness and attractiveness of European higher education system.

    In particular, they are structures composed of several research organizations and/or institutions of higher education, public or private (including university hospitals) in which the different actors share financial instruments, personnel, laboratories, etc.. for the execution of a common research project. The research projects will receive strong government investments (amounting even to 90% of total costs), and have strong tax exemptions.

    The main objectives of these tools are strengthening partnerships with academic and research and development of research and higher education at the service of the Poles of Competitiveness.

    Thematic Network for Advanced Research - TNAR
    The TNAR are structures created through the new laws with the status of scientific foundations. Together several research institutes and higher education, public or private, and possibly even companies involved in one or more areas of research. Are intended to increase the critical mass and synergies between research units belonging to universities and research organizations with different but similar scientific objectives. Finally, links to increase the European visibility on the international scene.

    Advanced Technology Program
    The Advanced Technology Program is co-financing long-term projects of research and development conducted by individual companies or joint ventures led by cutting-edge companies. In particular, the grants are awarded to projects that carry a higher risk factor and in which the companies themselves, singularly and without proper bank, would be reluctant to invest.

    The Advanced Technology Program aims in particular to bridge the gap between research and market through partnerships with the private sector, investment in the initial phase made ​​possible through the Program to accelerate the development of technologies that promise high payoff commercial, not only in terms toutcourt of returns on investment, but also in a wider fallout nationwide.

    Small Business Innovation Research Program - SBIR
    Aware of the risk and the effort required to produce financial commitments of some significance in the field of research and development are in reality far beyond the means available to many small businesses, the Government seeks to assist that firm size investment in R&D.

    Through the provision of a specific percentage of federal funds for research and development in small businesses, the program dedicated to innovation for Small Business helps small firms, allowing them to get to deal with larger firms even in areas with respect to such as small size often tends to be exclusionary.

    The SBIR program funds the critical moments of the start-up and development and encourages the commercialization of a technology, a product or a service.

    Small Business Technology Transfer Program - STTR
    The primary purpose of the STTR program is the expansion of partnerships between public and private sectors to include, in programs for research and development projects funded with federal resources, joint ventures taking place between small businesses and major national research institutes. The STTR program reserves to such joint ventures in fact a specific percentage of public funding.

    Chrysler Group Purchases GM As Part Of Government Boost


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 773707795489289282

    The Chrysler Motor Corporation today announced official plans to merge with the Irish born "General-Motors" to form under the new banner of the "Chrysler Group". This purchase comes in response to heightened fears of a looming economic collapse resulting in high pressure on the Chrysler Group to maintain a stable foothold incase the weight of the entire nations economy ends up on it's shoulders. The purchase has been made with advance capital from the NZ Government as part of it's financial backing for it's SOE's, and has been sanctioned towards the Chrysler Group International Initiative. The Aim of the initiative is to spread the groups footholds around the world while maintaining a base of central operations within the Social Democracy and running manufacturing and design within the social democracy until the economies automobile sector begins to saturate, excess is then diverted on to numerous other global economies. The purchase and upkeep of General-Motors will be the single largest overseas investment made not only by the Chrysler Group, but from the Social Democracy as a whole, with the purchasing raking in at just under $67 Billion NZD. As of now, General Motors will continue business as usual, but supply lines will be tweaked to work in tune with that of the Chrysler Group. For example parts will be supplied by MoPar instead of existing routes, and new models will include chassis and engine drivetrains from the Chrysler Groups own stores. However, while the Chrysler Group has guaranteed that assembly will remain in Ireland indefinitely into the foreseeable future, 40% or so of the actual manufacturing process will be done in factories stationed in New-Zealand. However, like Irish media had previously said, workers in General-Motors have been assured of their job safety and no mass redundancy plan is to go ahead. In fact, wages may be set to rise as General-Motors becomes a part of Chrysler's Global Group and thus takes on it's living wage policies.

    Tokugawan automakers rack up across-the-board profit growth

    All seven of Imperial Tokugawa's big automakers posted higher net profits for the April-June quarter, overcoming the initial blow from a Tokugawan sales tax hike and a loss of thrust from a weak yen.
    Their combined earnings rose 17% on the year to 1.01 trillion yen ($9.74 billion), topping 1 trillion yen in a single quarter for the first time.

    Toyota Motor led the pack with 587.7 billion yen, followed by Honda Motor at 146.5 billion yen and Nissan at 112.1 billion yen. Mitsubishi Motors brought up the rear at 28.1 billion yen. Gains ranged from 5% at Toyota all the way up to 800% at Mazda Motor.


    Toyota topped the revenue column at 6.39 trillion yen. Honda trailed at 2.98 trillion yen, followed by Nissan at 2.46 trillion yen.

    The automakers' strength flowed from developed markets, such as the New Tarajan., where historically low interest rates underpinned robust new-car sales. Nissan's Regional sales climbed 13%, while Subaru maker Fuji Heavy Industries' rose 6%. Mazda Motor saw growth of more than 20% in Europe, where auto sales are showing signs of life again.

    In Imperial Tokugawa, business had been expected to drop off after the september 1 consumption tax increase, which brought forward big-ticket spending. Five of the seven automakers did suffer sales declines. But the industry seems to have emerged from the first quarter relatively unscathed. Nissan's domestic sales fell only 0.5%. Honda Executive Vice President Tetsuo Iwamura called the impact of the tax hike "minimal." Honda's domestic unit sales actually rose in the quarter, thanks in part to the release of a new Fit. Suzuki also enjoyed volume growth at home.

    THE NEW BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM IS ACTIVE
    New highly advanced technologies that will make Europe a safe place
    An integrated system of defense, which has brought new high-skilled jobs, growth for high-tech companies, the development of know-how


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 20130408_110057_defensa
    A battery of launch of the new missile defense system Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)


    The new European missile defense system,named Ballistic Missile Defense System,officially came into operation this morning, with the activation of all the new radar systems (including satellite systems) and the strategic positioning of the defensive batteries, which cover the entire national territory.
    From now on this huge work, which required high billions of investments by the European Government and the private sector, which saw the participation of dozens of businesses and thousands of specialists, equipped with advanced technology,is ready to defend Europe against any air and missile threat.

    The system is composed of a series of technologically advanced radar and sensors based on land, at sea, placed on aircraft and ships, with the support of highly advanced new satellites. All integrated with a variety of fixed or mobile missile batteries, the result of an important technical advance, strategically placed on the ground, mounted on ships and aircraft.
    The coordination function is entitled to a number of operational centers, recently opened, equipped with sophisticated technologies, throughout the national territory.
    The management of this complex and expensive system is up to the Missile Defense Agency, the institution of the Ministry of Defense which is responsible for conducting research and testing of missile systems, in addition of course to manage the investment and the participation of companies and of various research institutions.

    In addition to the mere military strategy given that with this system of Europe may be declared completely safe from any kind of air or missile threat, and that the nation has expanded its military capabilities, there are important economic repercussions.
    The project, funded by billionaire investment, both public and private, was attended by dozens of companies, including SMEs, which have thus been able to expand and grow, expanding its technological expertise and know-how. It has also been possible to secure new jobs, many of which are highly specialized, and of course the expansion of the capacity of universities and research institutions that have participated in mass to the project. Soon the new technologies developed will certainly be transferred to the civilian sector, creating new major industrial and employment. Not just an expense only for military purposes in fact.

    It all started with the approval by the European Parliament of the National Missile Defense Act, which then led to new government investments in this sector, and ultimately the creation of the new defensive system. Here the fundamental purpose, taken from the text of the law:
    It is the policy of the United States of Europe to deploy as soon as is technologically possible an effective National Missile Defense system capable of defending the territory of the United States of Europe against limited ballistic missile attack (whether accidental, unauthorized, or deliberate) with funding subject to the annual authorization of appropriations and the annual appropriation of funds for National Missile Defense.

    But let's go to the operation of the system.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Command & Control, Battle Management, and Communications Centers

    The operational headquarters of the Missile Defense Agency,in New Strasbourg


    The Command and Control, Battle Management, and Communications Centre (C2BMC)  is the integrating element of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). It is a vital operational system that enables the President of the Repubblic, the Minister of Defense and Combatant Commanders at strategic, regional and operational levels to systematically plan ballistic missile defense operations, to collectively see the battle develop, and to dynamically manage designated networked sensors and weapons systems to achieve global and regional mission objectives.

    C2BMC supports a layered missile defense capability that enables an optimized response to threats of all ranges in all phases of flight. C2BMC is the force multiplier that globally and regionally networks, integrates and synchronizes autonomous sensor and weapon systems and operations to optimize performance. C2BMC is an integral part of all system ground and flight tests which verify and exercise all current and future BMDS capabilities.
    Through its operational software and networks, the C2BMC program provides redundant connectivity and enables on-site operations and sustainment for global combatant commanders.

    C2BMC is an operating center equipped with sophisticated and highly advanced technologies, able to get in contact with all the components of the defense system in real time, monitor these components, and is able simultaneously to effectively manage in a overall manner the whole system. It has an extensive network of local operations centers, with the same operational capabilities,scattered throughout the national territory.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Upgraded Early Warning Radars

    One of the Upgraded Early Warning Radars


    The Upgraded Early Warning Radars are solid-state, phased-array, all-weather, long-range radars. They are scattered over the country, placed in strategic positions. They are able to detect objects within a range of over 3000 kilometers.

    The radars provides integrated tactical warning and attack assessment. These radars and provides alerts to the Combatant Commands estimated launch and impact points. They support the space surveillance network, classifing reentry vehicle and other space objects. They provide coverage for midcourse Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS), detect or sea-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles, Provide real-time information to BMDS command and control nodes. Moreover they provide threat ballistic missile tracking data to commit the launch of interceptors and to update the target tracks to the interceptor while the interceptor is in flight.


    SYSTEM COMPONENT: COBRA DANE Radars

    One of the COBRA DANE radars


    The COBRA DANE Radars are traveling wave tube fed phased-array,all-weather,long-range radars. They are able to detect objects within a range of over 2000 kilometers.

    The upgrades improved midcourse Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) sensor coverage by providing acquisition, tracking, object classification, and date That can be used for cueing, launch of interceptor missiles, and of course updates interceptors while retaining the site's legacy intelligence and track space missions. These structures cover the entire national territory, and are placed in strategic locations. The European Air Force is responsible for the COBRA DANE Radar system operations, maintenance, and sustainment.

    In particular the radars detect sea-launched or intercontinental ballistic missiles and classify reentry vehicle and other missile objects. Also provide real-time information to Fire Control and provide tracking of threat ballistic missiles sufficiently accurate to commit the launch of interceptors and to update the target tracks to the interceptor while the interceptor is in flight.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Sea-Based X-Band Radar


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 X-band-radar


    The Sea-Based X-Band (SBX) radar acquires, tracks and discriminates the flight characteristics of ballistic missiles. The SBX provides an advanced capability to the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS), increasing the Missile Defense Agency’s ability to conduct operational and realistic testing of the BMDS,while providing an operational capability to the Combatant Commands. There are several examples strategically placed in the nation.

    The SBX is an advanced X-Band radar mounted on a mobile, semi-submersible platform that provides the BMDS with an extremely powerful and capable radar that can be positioned to cover any region of the globe. Its ocean- spanning mobility allows the radar to be repositioned as needed to support the various BMDS test scenarios.

    The vessel is based on a fifth-generation semi-submersible oil drilling platform. It is twin-hulled, self-propelled, and stable in high winds and turbulent sea conditions.

    Operationally, the SBX provides an advanced radar capability to obtain missile tracking information while an incoming threat missile is in flight, discriminates between the hostile missile warhead and any decoys, and provides that data to interceptor missiles so that they can successfully intercept and destroy the threat missile before it can reach its target.

    Larger than a football field, the main deck houses living quarters, workspaces, storage, power generation, bridge, and control rooms while providing the space and infrastructure necessary to support the radar antenna array, command control and communications suites, and an In-flight Interceptor Communication System Data Terminal which provides missile tracking and target discrimination data to interceptor missiles.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Space Tracking and Surveillance System


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 090624-tw-stss-02


    The Missile Defense Agency operates the Space Tracking and Surveillance System (STSS). STSS constellation consists of 25 satellites orbiting at 1350 km, 58 degree inclination, with 120 minute orbital period.

    Using sensors capable of detecting visible and infrared light, STSS serves as the experimental space layer of the Ballistic Missile Defense System.The mission Objective is provide accurate tracks of midcourse re-entry vehicles to the shooter. The satellites boosting targets detected by acquisition sensor and continuously scans visible earth in short- wave infrared band and provide 3-D tracks reported to the Ballistic Missile Defense System.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Army-Navy Transportable Radar Surveillance


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Rtn_missile_defense_gal_01


    The Army Navy/Transportable Radar Surveillance and Control, or AN/TPY-2, is a transportable by truck,air,ship and rail X-band, high-resolution, phased- array radar designed specifically for ballistic missile defense. There are dozens of radar scattered strategically throughout the country.

    The AN/TPY-2 is capable of tracking all classes of ballistic missiles and identifying small objects at long distances. In the forward-based mode,this radar plays a vital role in the Ballistic Missile Defense System by acting as a forward based sensor for the system, detecting ballistic missiles early in their flight and providing precise tracking information for use by the system. Use of multiple sensors provides overlapping sensor coverage, expands the BMDS battle space, and complicates an enemy's ability to penetrate the defense system. In the terminal mode, the same radar provides surveillance, track, discrimination and fire control support for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) weapon system.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Aegis Missile Defense


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 55037


    Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) is the naval component of the Missile Defense Agency’s Ballistic Missile Defense System. Currently most of the fleet, in particular frigates,destroyers,submarines and cruisers, is equipped with this advanced system. The remaining ships should be updated in the coming months.

    The Aegis BMD ships patrol,detect and track ballistic missiles of all ranges,including intercontinental ballistic missiles,and report track data to the missile defense system. This capability shares tracking data to cue other missile defense sensors and provides fire control data to control centers and to the ground defense. The units are also able to directly engage the missile threats using the radar system.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Gound Midcourse Missile Defense


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 -451e5323a705e0e7


    The Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) element of the Ballistic Missile Defense System provides Combatant Commanders the capability to engage and destroy limited intermediate and long range ballistic missile threats in space to protect the United States of Europe.

    Ground-based Midcourse Defense is composed of Ground-Based Interceptors and Ground Support & Fire Control Systems components.
    - The Ground-Based Interceptor is a multi-stage, solid fuel booster with an EKV payload. When launched, the booster carries the EKV toward the target’s predicted location in space. Once released from the booster, the EKV uses guidance data transmitted from Ground Support & Fire Control System components and on-board sensors to close with and destroy the target warhead. The impact is outside the Earth’s atmosphere using only the kinetic force of the direct collision to destroy the target warhead.
    - Ground Support & Fire Control Systems consist of redundant fire control nodes, interceptor launch facilities, and a communications network. GMD Fire Control (GFC) receives data from satellites and ground based radar sources, then uses that data to task and support the intercept of target warheads using Ground-Based Interceptors. The GFC also provides the Command & Control, Battle Management & Communications Centers element with data for situational awareness.
    There are dozens of launch sites strategically located in the national territory.



    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: PATRIOT Advanced Capability-3


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 RZ_1324626502_1


    The most mature hit-to-kill weapon system of the Ballistic Missile Defense System, the Patriot Weapon System using Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) missiles, is now operational and fielded by the European Army.

    Patriot Weapon System provides simultaneous air and missile defense capabilities as the Lower Tier element in defense of European deployed forces and allies. Works with THAAD to provide an integrated, overlapping defense against missile threats in the terminal phase of flight. Jointly, these systems engage the threat by forming a multi-tier theater defense against adversary missile threats using peer-to-peer engagement coordination, early warning track data, and battle management situational awareness. Contributes to the entire system’s situational awareness by transmitting precision cueing data to other theater elements while simultaneously protecting system assets against short-range ballistic missiles, large-caliber rockets, and air-breathing threats. For homeland defense, Patriot provides detection, track, and engagement of short-range ballistic missiles and cruise missiles. These engagements are further enhanced by networked remote sensors that supply early warning data to increase the probability of success.
    Patriot has added Upper-Tier Debris Mitigation capability to mitigate the excessive radar load and potential missile waste caused by debris from upper-tier intercepts.


    SYSTEM COMPONENTS: Terminal High Altitude Area Defense


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Mfc-thaad-photo_t


    The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) element provides the Ballistic Missile Defense System with a globally transportable, rapidly deployable capability to intercept and destroy ballistic missiles inside or outside the atmosphere during their final, or terminal, phase of flight. Rapidly deployable by being globally transportable via air, land and sea.

    A THAAD Battery consist of four main components:
    -Launcher: Truck-mounted, highly-mobile, able to be stored; interceptors can be fired and rapidly reloaded.
    -Interceptors: Eight per launcher.
    -Radar: Army Navy/Transportable Radar Surveillance (AN/TPY-2) transportable X-band Radar in the world searches, tracks, and discriminates objects and provides updated tracking data to the interceptor.
    -Fire Control: Communication and data-management backbone; links THAAD components together; links THAAD to external Command and Control nodes and to the entire BMDS; plans and executes intercept solutions.

    Rural Ireland:can she fix it?


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Green-belt_2623294b

    Ann Phelan made a little bit of history when she was appointed the first Minister for Rural Affairs, last month. But she has a major job to do if she wants to make another piece of history by helping to halt rural decline.
    With a full title of Minister of State at the Departments of Agriculture, Food and Marine and Transport, Tourism and Sport with Special Responsibility for Rural Economic Development (implementation of the Cedra Report) and Rural Transport, the Labour politician has between now and March 2016 – if the Government sees out its term of office – to put her stamp on a plan to revive rural areas. She’s not the first to make the attempt, and the chances are that she won’t be the last.
    Plans to rescue rural Ireland have been produced for as long as people have called for the draining of the Shannon. But she is adamant that this time is different. “This is the first time that there has been a Minister for Rural Affairs,” she says. “I’m so excited that I have been given the opportunity to perhaps make a difference.”
    She will have her work cut out as people continue to deal with the fallout from the closure of rural Garda stations and the loss of local shops and services that can no longer compete with large shopping centres.

    But the politician from Graiguenamanagh, Co Kilkenny, says she is ideally placed to tackle these issues. “It’s what I’ve been about all my public-representative days,” she says. “Large urban areas like Dublin sometimes have the ability to drive their own economies. And now Dublin has moved ahead of everywhere else at a speed while parts of rural Ireland are still decimated by the downturn in the economy. They are languishing because of high unemployment and emigration.”
    Teagasc, the agriculture and food authority, says that nobody is in employment in a third of working-age households in small and medium-sized towns, and that poverty rates in small towns are twice those of cities. And, according to the Cedra report that Phelan’s job involves implementing – Cedra is the Commission for the Economic Development of Rural Areas – country areas outside the State’s five biggest cities have been hit hardest by job losses, with a rise in unemployment of 192 per cent, compared with 114 per cent in urban areas.
    Rural revival
    Phelan’s main role will be to oversee the implementation of Cedra’s 34 recommendations for encouraging a rural revival. Happily for her, appointing a Minister for Rural Affairs was one of them. But what of the other 33? Will they be implemented before the Government leaves office?

    Rise of Labour

    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 320px-Irish_Labour_Party_Logo.svg
    In recent polls the Irish Labour Party has risen to an approval rating of 41% up from 2 months ago when they were only sitting at 25%. Many political experts believe that the Labour Party might gain control of the House of Commons and might host the next Permiership. Though the Conservative Party still sits at a 79% approval rating.

    Secretary of State Resigns


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Viktor-orban_1623428c
         Citing "the Presidents failure to authorize the use of force against imperialistic nations", Talanzaar's chief Diplomat, Secretary of State Dennis Liber has resigned from his office, effective immediately. Before announcing his resignation, Secretary Liber summoned the press for a surprise press conference at the State Department. He arrived to a small group of journalists waiting for him, prepared to record  what they assumed to be an announcement of new actions against nations who were involved in the New Causcoid events. Instead, Secretary Liber arrived alone with prepared remarks. Right off the cuff, his anger and dissatisfaction with President Marko Davidovic was evident. "It is obvious that this President does not  know the best path forward for this nation - he is feckless and ineffective. Other nations have already announced sanctions, other have deployed forces, but this President has been all talk and no action." said Liber. The journalists were shocked, yet afterwards, some say they weren't surprised. Dennis Liber was a former senator who was notable for his calls for a more aggressive foreign policy and continued support for raising military spending. While the Conservative held control of the House of Representatives, he tabled 17 bills that would begin a multi billion dollar nuclear weapons research program, but Libertarians repeatedly struck down all attempts in the Senate. Secretary Liber was first appointed by fellow Conservative Prime Minister Otto in 2011, but with Liberal PM Mulroney in office, his eviction from the office was impending. Talanzaar's Semi-presidential system allows the PM and the President to be from different parties. Before leaving the press conference, Secretary Liber called Prime Minister Glenn Mulroney "weak" and "annoying" and pleaded with the people to make sure he does not get elected President in 2016.



    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 090115_daschle_staff
    House Representative Michael O'Malley has been named the New Secretary of State by the PM


    The President immediately held a press conference of his own to fight back. Surprisingly, President Davidovic called Liber a "stupid man" and a "war mongering gorilla". Former Prime Minister Kedar Otto, who appointed Secretary Liber, condemn Liber's backlash. Prime Minister Glenn Mulroney received questions while arriving to Parliament, saying he "regretted PM Otto's decision of appointing him" and said that "he should've fired him earlier". President Davidovic and Fmr. PM Otto both commend Prime Minister Mulroney's choice of naming Michael O'Malley as the new Secretary of State. O'Malley has been a vocal critic of the Davidovic Presidency and is one of the longest serving members of congress.



    Prime Minister Announces Presidential Bid


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 RPxVF
    Unsurprisingly, Liberal Prime Minister Glenn Mulroney has formally announced his bid for the Presidency at a large gathering in his home state of Morven. Mulroney has been hinting at a Presidential run since 1997, but declined to run in 2000, 2004 , 2008 and 2012. It all started when the young Mulroney was elected Governor of Morven in 1996, where he quickly rose to the national spotlight. As Governor, he implemented a series of stricter gun laws, but also lower taxes and balanced 6 budgets. He was re-elected in 2000 in a landslide. In his lame duck session, he announced a run for the House of Representatives in his home district. He easily cruised to victory. In Congress, he rose to stardom once he drafted the bill that banned the  commercial sale of cigarettes. He was the star of the Liberal Party, which reached its record low in 2010. After the parties poor showing in 2012, Mulroney ran for the leadership and won. After that, he attempted to call an election, but was blocked by the Conservative Party's majority. He bypassed their majority when he called a motion of no confidence in May of 2014. The motion passed as the Conservative caucus was unaware of the vote and many of its members couldn't arrived to the capitol in time. Mulroney's popularity carried the party to 2nd place. After that, he announced a collation Government with the far left Social Democrats and with the help of some independents, formed a majority government. Mulroneys Presidential agenda is unclear but he has stated that he will make Talanzaar a regional leader in healthcare, green energy and education.

    Economy Stalling


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Chrysler+CEO+Visits+Windsor+Assembly+Plant+leU1Lm6bZwdl


    The NZ Government is in serious damage control as one of the world's largest economies and global trading fronts prepares for a looming collapse. In the months since the long standing Socialist Coalition lost control of the Parliament, putting the balance of power in favour of the right leaning liberals, the previous government's monumentous reform plans with funding from New Tarajani loaners in the form of a large government debt, the liberals put a sharp stop to reforms, focussing instead on handling the nations crippling debt crisis. Over the past months the Socialists have rallied for the continuation of the reforms arguing that "We've gone to far to turn back and the only way through the storm is forward", this has mostly fallen on deaf ears and the parliament voted in favour of damage control. Now the nation braces for the incoming tidal wave of a catastrophic economic collapse that could set the social democracy back years and put a large dent in the framework of the global economy. Thankfully, the government has managed to secure the foothold for the Chrysler Group to remain the backbone of the economy and hopefully keep the automobile sector relatively unscathed thus ensuring minimal damage to the nations largest industry. This coupled with strong agricultural turnout, though commodity prices are falling, has permitted the government to console the population with promises of no welfare and social security cuts in the light of looming rises in unemployment. However, the crash of the NZ economy would not only harm the citizens of NZ, but the ripple it would send around the world with surely have large negative impacts on multiple global powers, likely starting a domino effect that could send the international community into a global recession.

    Tokugawa Holds a Military Drill



    Nagashino, Imperial Tokugawa (AP) — Imperial Tokugawa's military showcased its ability to defend country Tuesday, under new defense policies instituted by Prime Minister Park Geun Hye that have divided the nation.

    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Fd890eb2885b34205d0f6a7067001e9d

    The military began large-scale annual "Fire Power" exercises at the foot of Mt. Kitabatake aimed at repelling a hypothetical invasion of far-off tokugawan islands, defense officials said.

    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 8db2249b88a936205d0f6a706700bcd9

    Fighter jets, attack helicopters and tanks, guided missile systems and artillery fired Tuesday at targets at the base of Mount Kitabatake, where soldiers demonstrated tactics to fight off foreign invaders.

    The live-fire exercises involve 2,300 troops, 20 aircraft and 80 tanks and armored vehicles, among other equipment.



    Tokugawa to Reopen it's Nuclear Facility



    The Parliament approves to Re-open the Nuclear Facilities that's be closed after the Tragedy caused by a Failure Test by the Imperial Military accidentally Drops at Heavily Populated Area in Ise that kills millions of peoples instantly.
    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Anti-nuclear-power-rally-008
    Tokugawa protesters held an anti-nuclear power rally as the prime minister gave his speech calling for the re-opening of the facilities.

    Tokugawa's leader has appealed to the nation to accept that two nuclear reactors that remained shuttered after the Failure Test disaster must be restarted to protect the country and people's livelihoods.

    International Diplomats strongly condemns about the Re-Opening of the Nuclear Facilities feared to cause another massive devastation to the people's lives.

    Starfrost Freezes the Musical Competition

    Monterrey, Planitan Capital Territory
    Shining out of the gloom of obscurity and onto the stage of stardom, the Planitan band Starfrost made a stellar debut last week with its opening album Soar. Composing of 10 songs to a total of 41 minutes, the new alternative rock band’s label was a commercial success. A reviewer from a local magazine called the album “one of remarkable emotions and airs a feeling of knowledge, despite the band being so new. A music rating site called it “extremely uplifting” and the use of classic guitars completed their “wonderful” songs. The people of Planita have apparently agreed with the critics as the album quickly became Number 1 in the Federation. Talk of a Diamond Award for the album is in has been rumored but not confirmed. However, even with all their fame, the band is still rather new. So who is Starfrost?

    The band is apparently a perfect mix of the Federation ethnic and cultural melting pot even they are often confused for Korrians. The four members are either from mixed families or has a relative that is from another ethnic group. Christopher or Chris, the lead singer and bandleader, is half Korrian and Foraia himself. When asked about this biracial heritage, he shrugged it off saying, “It never really bothered me.” The other members Thomas Shenford, Patrick Ford, and Chen Milford have the same attitude.

    They all met in 1994 when they attended Corfair University in Liberia and they became fast friends. Christopher proposed creating a band in 1996 and since they all had experience in musical talent, they all agreed. After playing around local joints, the band applied for a 5 year contract with music labeling company Music United. After several EPs the band decided to record it’s first album. After considering many names, Soar was chosen and the rest is history.

    Growing Terrorist Threat In Talanzaar


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 10131926


    The United States of Talanzaar's Counter-Terrorism Committee is a group that works to prevent terrorist acts both within their borders and across regions by lobbying for policy and advising governments. The group is held in high regard after it was credited in foiling a large-scale terrorist plot in 2005, which makes its latest annual report very alarming. The group released a report to the media yesterday, saying that the terrorist threat in Talanzaar was "the highest ever" for a number of reasons. The main reason was the Uihotu Liberation Front. The Uihotu Liberation Front (more commonly known as ULF) is a separatist and Marxist-Leninist paramilitary group in the State of Uihotu (pronounced You-E-O-To). Founded in the early 1920s, it militantly supported the Uihotu sovereignty movement, which began after the State joined the union in 1920. It was initially low key but became very active between 1930 and 1941, and was regarded as a terrorist organization for its violent methods of action, which included taking hostages, suicide bombings and mass murders in the areas of Uihotu that are considered "Pro-Talanzaar". It was responsible for over 200 violent incidents which killed 300 people and injured many more, including the bombing of the Talanzaarian Stock Exchange in 1934. After its leader was successfully assassinated in a governmental operation in 1941 (the governments role was not revealed to the public until 2011), the group was considered disbanded. But things changed in 2010, when the first pro-separatist Governor of Uihotu, Ward Tobias was elected.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Sanader3
    Ward Tobias, Governor of Uihotu (2010 - Present)


    The Governors message during the campaign was clear: vote for me if you want a country. Tobias's campaign knew it was the winning message: polls showed that the majority of Uihotuians blamed the financial downturn on the federal government, not the state government and that a overwhelming majority were fed up with the direction of the Government. Governor Tobias, who was a very successful CEO before he became Governor, called on Uihotuians to forget about Talanzaar and strive for a future better than the rest of the nation. He clearly advocated for sovereignty and many unhappy voters were open to the idea. Incumbent President Marko Davidovic, who was not incredibly popular at the time, campaigned for the Governors opponent, but it was in vain. Tobias won with 61% of the vote, while his opponent captured 39%. Many historians said that this was a major blow to the nation as a whole and said that national pride was at an all time low. Fresh off his election, Governor Tobias highlighted his plans for Uihotu's future. He started by abusing states rights -- banning same-sex marriage, making all abortion illegal and implementing a series of anti-drugs laws. Members of his Government have been arrested after evidence was found that state funds were being used to fund the ULF, but Governor Tobias said he was not involved. Governor Tobias was hit by a series of lawsuits and indictments, but many cases have not been heard yet because of the states slow moving legal system. He managed to survive his 4 year term and announced his bid for re-election.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Action-plans-for-jobs-reports-296x197
    President Davidovic has taken most of the blame for Uihotu's situtation


    Pundits said Governor Tobias was too extreme and instantly called the race for his oppenent. But Tobias is competitive because of his weak opponent and taking credit for the economy's rebound, even though many credited it to the Presidents policies.  "I can promise you that we will have a referendum as soon as possible and we will be a nation before my term ends!" proclaimed Tobias on election night. Although there is no official way for a state to separate, Gov. Tobias said he would first establish an army, establish borders, create a self sustaining economy, destroy any foreign presence and take any military equipment left behind by Talanzaar, a plan that may cause bloodshed in the near future if he is re-elected. The Counter-Terrorism Committee said Governor Tobias's insiders continue to fund the ULF, which has released videos of them training with expensive weapons and some are even in possession of fighter jets. Government military bases in Uihotu have the highest number of soldiers as the military purposely builds up its presences there. But many are criticizing newly-elected PM Glenn Mulroney, who has passed a bill that cuts the defense budget, making it harder for the government to act against the Governor.  Governor Tobias has announced that most of his plans will begin to come into effect in the following weeks if he is re-elected --- will this mean civil war for Talanzaar?Or will the President triumph against the crazed Governor? Only time will tell. -- Okriana Press

    Ebola Outbreak in County Donegal


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 _77102775_letterkenny

    It is understood the man's body was brought to Letterkenny General Hospital on Thursday. He had suffered what are described as Ebola-like symptoms.

    The HSE said that test results are expected on Friday.

    The man, originally from the Mountcharles area, near Donegal town, is said to have been in his 40s.


    In a statement, the HSE said: "The public health department was made aware earlier (on Thursday) of the remains of an individual, discovered early this morning, it us unknown how he contracted the disease."

    "The appropriate national guidelines, in line with international best practice, are being followed by the public health team dealing with the situation."

    The HSE said the body had been isolated to minimise the potential spread of any possible virus.

    Low risk
    "Blood samples have been sent for laboratory testing to confirm whether or not this individual had contracted Ebola virus disease," the statement added.
    "Until a diagnosis is confirmed, and as a precautionary measure, the individual's remains will stay in the mortuary pending the laboratory results which are expected late (on Friday)."

    The post-mortem room at the hospital will remain sealed-off for up to 18 hours.

    Dr Darina O'Flanagan, head of the HSE health protection surveillance centre, said: "In general, the risk of contracting Ebola virus disease is extremely low and would involve very close personal contact with the infected individual or their body fluids for there to be any risk at all.

    "We await the outcome of the laboratory tests before we will know whether or not this individual had contracted Ebola virus disease. The appropriate public health guidelines are being followed at every stage in this process as a precaution."

    The mayor of Letterkenny, councillor Michael McBride, said his thoughts were with the man's family.

    He said: "Our condolences go out to the family of the deceased. We hope the results will come back negative regarding the Ebola virus."

    Will there be Another Abortion Referendum?


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Image
    Not under the current Government, although the question will linger in public debate. In spite of the difficulties presented by the latest abortion controversy, there is simply no appetite in the Coalition to revisit the issue before the next general election.
    The election must be held by the spring of 2016, further reinforcing the sense in political circles that the question is far too toxic to confront as the Government heads into the final phase of its mandate.
    The current case surfaced last weekend. A young woman who said she was suicidal due to pregnancy after rape was refused an abortion by an expert panel set up under a contentious new law which was enacted last year to implement the X-case ruling of the Supreme Court in 1992.
    Political sensitivity
    The fact that 21 years passed before legislation was introduced illustrates the political sensitivity of these matters.
    The Health Service Executive has called for a report to establish the facts of the present case, the exact sequence of events and “any learnings” that can be gleaned from it. Terms of reference for the inquiry were published yesterday.

    Minister for Health Leo Varadkar will provide an update to the Cabinet on September 3rd, when it meets for the first time after the summer break.
    Divisive legislation
    At issue is the care given to the woman, whose baby was delivered this month by Caesarean section at 25 weeks gestation. This turns on the operation of the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Act 2013, the most divisive legislation introduced by the Government since it took power.
    A rebellion in the Conservative Party over the law led to the loss of several MP's.
    Other Conservative Members figures had wavered before voting for the legislation. Prime Minister Enda Kenny overcame this challenge to his authority, but he would not relish another battle over abortion.
    The HSE report is awaited. Yet the case has already led to fresh calls for another referendum. These have come from the Labour wing of the Coalition, as well as from eminent doctors and campaigners.
    The demands vary, from outright repeal of the constitutional ban on abortion to the insertion of provisions dealing with fatal foetal abnormalities, rape and incest.
    Still, Labour has signalled quite strongly that it is not going to press for a plebiscite within the lifetime of the current administration. There appears, therefore, to be little prospect of conflict with the Conservatives on the referendum question.
    This is the realpolitik right now. The argument is made that the Coalition has no mandate to propose a vote, but governments routinely take action without a direct mandate when they see fit.

    A 516-year old pendant was discovered beneath the floorboards of an old house of an Albioncourtois Noble Family in Paris. The house had previously been the house of the royal family during the Palar Government. It was rumored to have been hidden by Queen Maxine after an unsuccessful rebellion. Adrina Lapau recenty discovered the gold and Cithari-gold pendant in the study of her room.

    The Drawing Room of Maxine, also later called the Study of the home.
    The pendant was passed down through the Pahlavi family until it's disappearance in 1879. The pendant currently has an estimated value of £5 million. It was returned back to Lady Narendra, who put it alongside the other Royal Jewels of Albioncourt in an undisclosed location in the Virgin Palace. Adrina was adorned with the Order of Maxine by the Lady Matriarch.

    Governor Authorizes Referendum
    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Ivo%20sanader5
    In a grand speech, complete with photo-ops, orchestras and beautiful scenery, the separatist Governor of Uihotu, Ward Tobias, signed a law that declared that an referendum on sovereignty would be held the same day he is up for re-election in a week or so. Tobias announced the referendum to a large crowd outside Uihotu's state capitol, signing the law in front of thousands of cheering supports, waving flags of terrorist organizations. Not to far from the Governors large reception, a pro-Talanzaar rally was held. Governor Tobias used his power as Commander-in-Chief of the State Troopers to put tanks and armored vechiles all over downtown Uihotu City, causing many people to stay indoors in fear. But President Davidovic ordered drones to monitor the area. His administration said that they are very aware of the growing separatist movement and promised they will fail.

    Governor Tobias is legally allowed to call a referendum, but he did not ask the state house or senate to vote on the matter, highlighting his increasingly authoritarian tendencies. If people vote in favour of the referendum, the senate and the congress ultimately decide whether or not they get to leave the union of 32 states. The Conservative and Liberal Party have both said that they would vote against that proposition. Those two parties together control a majority of both houses. But the smaller Libertarian Party, which Uihotuians voted overwhelming for, said that they would vote with the people, even if it doesn't make a difference. The President also has to sign off on a independence vote but President Davidovic has been at the forefront of the "no" campaign. Already, Senators, Governors and Former Presidents have been campaigning in Uihotu, urging voters to reject sovereignty.

    Prime Minister Blames President
    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Ap_bob_mcdonnell_ll_120404_wb
    As Governor Tobias calls a referendum, Prime Minister Glenn Mulroney blamed the President for "not doing enough" to stop the sovereignty movement. "This President has been sitting on the sidelines ever since Governor Tobias was elected in 2010. He has paid no attention to that state and unless he wants them separating, he better dress their problems. And before (the media) say that I should be doing more, I've been campaigning for the "no" side since I was elected in June! The President has been playing golf and flying around the world, its crazy!" said Mulroney.

    News from Marquette: Economy minister Filipe Giovenazzo criticizes 35-hour work week, pushes for reform; corruption trial of MP Ciavarella expected to start in 2015; pollution becomes bigger problem in Mazzacara; MIA +1.5%, 500MS -0.2%, MSIA +0.8%

    35-hour work-week under question by Minister of the Economy
    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Emmanuel-macron-wirtschaftsminister
    Besançon, Marquette (MINA) - Marquette's Minister of the Economy, Filipe Giovenazzo, has criticized Marquette's 35-hour work week, a measure that was passed by the ORG party in 1998 to prevent unemployment by forcing companies to hire more employees. Chancellor Joseph Charpentier, elected in 2013, has already enacted several economical reforms to help Marquette get back in the lead in the international economy, and the economy has slowly been growing at a rate of 1.2% per year. However, Mr. Giovenazzo believes that the 35-hour work week, while it has reduced unemployment somewhat since it was enacted, is only detrimental to the nation's economy.

    "The 35-hour work week causes businesses has proven that, while it has slightly decreased unemployment rates since 1998, it is only causing Marquetien businesses to lose money, and with an already low unemployment rate of 4.2%, it is absolutely unnecessary."

    Members of the ORG have already begun drafting a bill to nullify the maximum 35-hour work week bill, but it could take several years for it to get all the way through the Marquetien legislation system, which is internationally infamous for its inefficiency and complicated structure.

    EUROPEAN NEWS - GOVERNMENT - ECONOMY - INFRASTRUCTURE - TECHNOLOGY - PROJECTS - SPACE AFFAIRS
    COMES INTO OPERATION THE EUROPEAN SATELLITE POSITIONING AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM
    The "Galileo System", the most advanced system of satellite navigation and positioning,all of European production,is active
    Europe is now independent,the economic benefits will be enormous


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Galileo-constellation
    A concept art of the satellites, now in operating at full speed


    The NAVSTAR GGPS,or NAVigation Satellite Timing And Ranging Galileo Global Positioning System,or,if you prefer simplicity, the Galileo System,is finally up and running,and now it's at full speed. The system will be managed entirely by European Space Agency,in open collaboration with other government agencies. It is a satellite system for navigation and global positioning,designed and developed for civilian use,but also with distinct characteristics for the military sector (and also for public safety, as we shall see). Its main objective is to ensure a system of navigation and positioning precise and in real time, with an error that arrives at most at the centimeter and a half. A technology superior than any other now in use.

    In particular, the system now provides full coverage and easily accessible throughout the national territory (including settlements), which can be extended to the entire global surface. More attention is paid to high latitudes and "urban canyons", the narrow streets of the big cities where the signal is usually hard to get. In short, no more stress and disruption to citizens and businesses, who now have an efficient service, fast and, of course, free.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Show.php?fn=gal-redu
    One of the Up-Links Stations of European Space Agency, used for communications to satellites


    But his goals are also a little more "patriotic",because with this new and sophisticated system Europe will finally have its own satellite navigation and positioning system. Until now, in fact our nation is resting on the system supplied by other nations,a situation certainly embarrassing for a global power as Europe. But now,and we dare to say that it was time,the European power is independent and also technologically advanced in this sector.

    The last satellite,in the constellation of 30 units,was launched and placed two weeks ago,while about 9 days after it went into operation last control station on the ground. This morning,the system officially came into operation.
    The first man ever to make a journey using the new Galileo System was Martin Schulz,the President of the Republic. In fact,the President drove his car (unescorted and alone) from the presidential palace to the headquarter of the European Space Agency,for the opening ceremony. Definitely a good measure for advertising. And memorable were the faces of pedestrians as the President stopped the car to allow them to cross the street. Or the expression of motorists stopped at traffic lights,which have seen the President stopped beside them. In short,the President,an ordinary citizen in the town urban bustle of every day,but with one more friend,the Galileo System.

    The European Government has invested tens of billions in this project,which has been successful, and that will allow large economic returns and unprecedented development. A project that involved almost all government agencies,dozens of enterprises (and all their related business),also small and medium sized companies,a project that has seen at work the whole scientific community,which offered work to the most brilliant minds in the nation and many others,a project that will make Europe great. But let's see how this system works, what are the services that offer and what are the economic returns.


    FUNCTIONING & ARCHITECTURE


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Galileo-esa-image3-660x350


    Despite the great technological innovations that make this new system, the architecture remains the usual: there are three segments,one based on space,a ground-based and one based on users.
    Let's analyze one by one, listing the features.


    SPACE SEGMENT


    For the space segment, the Galileo System consists of 30 satellites placed in MEO (Medium Earth Orbit) at an altitude of 23.222 km. The satellites occupy three planes inclined at an angle of 56 ° with respect to the equator. Precisely ten satellites on each floor (in the first image that is visible). The devices will take about 14 hours for a complete revolution around the planet.

    Planners and engineers at ESA (European Space Agency) had good reasons for choosing such a structure for the Galileo Constellation. With 30 satellites at such an altitude, there is a very high probability (more than 98%) that anyone anywhere in the world will always be in sight of at least four satellites and hence will be able to determine their position from the ranging signals broadcast by the satellites. The inclination of the orbits was chosen to ensure good coverage of polar latitudes,without,however,affecting the service provided to the equatorial zones.

    From most locations, six to eight satellites will always be visible, allowing positions to be determined very accurately – to within a few centimetres. Even in high rise cities, there will be a good chance that a road user will have sufficient satellites overhead for taking a position.


    GROUND SEGMENT


    The ground segment is composed in particular from 4 Navigation System Control Centers,which takes care of all the series of operations required to determine the orbit of the satellites,to monitor the timing,and the determination and dissemination of information through satellites integrity. It is extremely technologically advanced centers,managed by ESA and capillary sites in the nation.

    The system also provides a global network of stations for monitoring orbit and synchronization,spread widely in the nation, the Orbitography & Synchronisation Processing Facilities. Then there is a network of control stations used for telemetry and control of the satellites,the Telemetry, Tracking & Control Centers. Used for communication with the satellites is a network of stations,the Up-Link Stations. To interconnect these operating centers and facilities with each other and allow the exchange of data with other government agencies,there is a solid database and a large computer network,the Data Dissemination Network.

    This is obviously very advanced operating centers from technological point of view, efficient and widely distributed in the nation, and with a high level of automation,all managed by the European Space Agency.


    USER SEGMENT


    End users of the Galileo System will have a wide range of receiving terminals as a function of signals broadcast by satellites and for the various basic services. It is not necessary to change tools to use, as the system is able to operate also with terminals products before its start.


    SERVICES & ECONOMIC RETURNS


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 415
    A picture of one of the four Navigation System Control Centers


    The Galileo System was designed as a core application on which every other application must be implemented. The use of Galileo on a full range of integrated services can range from use in the field of transport (air,rail,sea,road, pedestrian),the synchronization,monitoring,such as support for the law enforcement,for engineering applications,and for scientific,environmental,and recreational activities.

    The Galileo System is designed to be a navigation system to be applied in the field of transportation and is designed to meet the diverse needs of different user segments in the market in the field of avionics the advent of "GNSS" ("Global Navigation Satellite System") will lead to possibility of no risk critical driving maneuvers such as takeoffs and landings even in conditions of very poor visibility, leading to a progressive reduction of the control systems on Earth.
    In the maritime field will lead to the development of the "AIS" ("Automated Identification System") which will increase the safety in navigation. Applications with regard to road traffic are many but the most interesting case of "Advanced Driver Assistance Centre Systems", high automation systems integrated into cars to enable collision checking, increase visibility and allow automated maneuvering at low speeds.

    As regards the energy sector, the use of atomic clocks (contained in satellites) can facilitate the synchronization of the electric lines facilitating the transmission of electrical energy,may also monitor the lines and thus speed up the process of maintenance of the same. There are also benefits for the field of oil and gas.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Galileo+Control+Centre+in+Fucino
    One of the control centers of the satellites,seen from the outside


    Also,thanks to the atomic clocks of the satellites may release date-stamps in order to authenticate financial transactions via the web. For insurance agencies the Galileo System becomes a way to monitor and control the status of goods by introducing a dynamic based on the risk associated with each individual policy. Banks may instead monitor the transport of gold,and precious banknotes in general,increasing safety standards.

    With regard to the safety of citizens,the European emergency agencies can now count on Galileo System to track the position of people in need. During crisis situations, where speed of action is essential, having the ability to know precisely the exact location of the place in which work is vital, just think of fires, floods, earthquakes. In emergency situations is also increased coordination,thanks to the Galileo System.

    The Galileo System will be a valuable ally of the scientific community since the precise definition of the coordinates also allow to create accurate maps of the ocean and icy areas, provide detailed level values ​​of the tides and river levels, making the tracking of icebergs and many others tasks of great importance.

    A New Face

    With only 2 weeks of Enda Kenny's last term as Prime Minister to go. The Conservative Party has elected a new Chairman. Who was this person? David Cameron. This was a statement from David Cameron soon after winning the leadership. "It has been an honor to serve as Vice Chairman of the Conservative Party. And it has been an honor to serve along Prime Minister Kenny as he served as Prime Minister. This party has been through its highs and its lows under Enda but mostly highs. I hope I as Chairman of the Conservative Party can be just as good as him. And I hope I can get the chance of serving as Prime Minister of this United Kingdom."

    EUROPEAN NEWS - GOVERNMENT - PUBLIC SERVICE - HEALTH - WELFARE
    GOVERNMENT RENEWS AND REORGANIZES NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE
    New plans to make the Health System the most efficient,modern and technological in the region
    New interventions to emphasize the universalistic principles upon which the Health Service is based,to give to every citizen the right to health


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 NHS_2391456b


    The government decree was approved by the Parliament with an overwhelming majority, only a short time ago, and is now fully operational. The press conference held by the Ministry of Health and by the Ministry of Economy and Finance, presented to the international press the entire contents of the decree, that in order to ensure usual maximum transparency, is available online in full text.

    The decree,known as the National Strategy for Public Health, is the first action of the Government to respond to the growing needs of modernization and reorganization of health care in our nation.
    First, the law confirms the principles of universality on which the National Health Service is founded,which shall remain wholly under the control of the state (and thus without any infiltration of private companies) and dispense free medical care to the population,thus ensuring the right to health (however,guaranteed by the European Constitution).
    After that there is a general increase in funding health care, to take at least 13-14% of GDP.  There is therefore a general reorganization of local health network, with upgrades, renovations, new buildings and better territorial organization. So interventions for the redefinition of the roles of the State and of the Regions. It then goes on to interventions aimed at improving general care,with the improvement of existing technologies and the modernization of the machinery.
    Finally there is an intervention on the staff, with the recruitment of new physicians and practitioners, with a total release of the turn-over and the stabilization of temporary contracts.
    But first things first.

    This law will allow the National Health Service to become the most efficient,modern,technological and accesible throughout the region and beyond.


    INCREASED FUNDING


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 RM5713_11


    The Ministry of Health has provided a general increase in funding, which consist of several tens of billions, which should bring government spending on health to at least 13-4% of the Gross Domestic Product,thus an improvement of fund that amounts to several hundreds of billions. As a result will be increased state funding directed towards the Regions (which co-operate with the Government in health matters), which will always be traceable and suspendable at any time,in order to avoid waste. These loans have very specific destinations and already established,aimed at improving healthcare delivery to citizens.

    For major emergencies (such as the affront of extraordinary expenses or risk of default) is set up an Public Health Emergency Fund,under the control of the Ministry of Health,with a budget of several billion,available for both regions and for individual hospitals.


    HOSPITAL TERRITORIAL NETWORK & TECHNOLOGY MODERNIZATION


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 9904db8458


    The new government funds are mainly aimed at the renewal of the territorial structure of the National Health Service.
    It is therefore a special plan for complete renovation of existing buildings and facilities,so as to make efficient maintenance and management (especially from the point of view of energy). They are also allocated new funds for routine maintenance.
    New hospitals will be created to meet the growing needs of the population,according to strict standards of energy efficiency,good organization of space and high-tech installations. The construction of new hospital structures and the renovation of the old ones is also aimed at making the hospital network is well connected to the transport network and closer to the population. In addition, there will be substantial allocations for the renewal of all systems of medical support in the various hospitals,replacing them with technologically advanced systems,instruments and equipmwents (the best on the market). Obviously,financing and restructuring plans and the expansion plans does not relate only to large structures and high-tech facilities (which will be assempled in very large hospital poles,located in a strategic position),but also outpatient clinics,emergencies rooms,centers of rehabilitation and other peripheral structures. In this way, the service will be significantly increased, as well as the number of beds available.

    The strategy is to focus on a few high-tech facilities for emergency and acute care facilities flanked by low and medium intensity of care facilities where help patients with chronic diseases and those who do not require highly specialized interventions. Hospitals must then be linked together through networks of specialty to avoid duplication and redundancy,but it is also essential to the close link with the territorial facilities,minor hospitals,residential rehabilitation facilities,with home care,with general medicine and with pediatrics medicine to ensure real processes of taking care and continuity of care.


    GENERAL PRACTITIONERS


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 University_hospital_of_wales_heath_park__cardiff


    Until now the studies of General Practitioners were scattered in the territory,in certain zones present in excess,in other
    absent.

    Now,even through forms of financing,studies of General Practitioners will be merged into single centers,modern, functional and easily accessible and equipped with sophisticated instruments. Their location will be determined in such a way as to provide a comprehensive service, but also so as not to create unnecessary "duplication" in a single territory. These new surgeries of General Practitioners will be equipped,computerized,linked closely with specialist clinics and hospitals, and with the network of social and health services. This ensures a service to the citizens present at all times, 24 hours a day, 7 days out of 7, every day of the year. A service that will not be exclusively conducted in the surgeries,but that will also include home care (also active 24 hours a day).


    SYSTEM OF HEALTH EMERGENCY -118


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Ambulanze-nel-pronto-soccorso_full


    In the law there is also a substantial reorganization of the System of Health Emergency-118, with a massive release of funds for improvement. The system will be managed by regional government agencies (under the responsibility of the Regions),defined RAEU (Regional Agencies of Emergency and Urgency). There will be an agency for each Region, but they will all be organized in a standard way.

    These agencies will have a regional operations center,and more detachments at the provincial level,all fully computerized and equipped with the latest technology and constantly connected with hospitals of their respective areas of expertise. The Regionals Operations Centre and the Provincials Operations Centre will have the task of managing the emergency in the event of a request by the citizens (via the health emergency number 118).

    All the greatest nation's hospitals are already equipped with emergency rooms.
    From now on the emergency rooms of the major hospitals will be converted into DEA of Level I (Departments of Emergency and Acceptance),adapted for the functions of the higher qualifying arising from the emergency,such as cardiac surgery,neurosurgery,neonatal intensive care, vascular surgery, thoracic surgery according to the directions set by the regional planning.
    Medium-sized hospitals will be equipped with DEA of Level II,for less serious emergencies, specialized functions of observation and shorter hospital stays, intensive care and, at the same time, it must ensure that diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in general medicine, general surgery,orthopedics and traumatology,cardiology.
    At the territorial level,in smaller hospitals,will act the Emergency Rooms ,for minor emergencies,accessible by the public without the need for ambulances.

    All of these units will be adequately refinanced,with the provision of new facilities and with extremely advanced medical instruments. In this way you will avoid overcrowding, and the service will improve for sure. Obviously for transporting tools will be used normal ambulances,ambulances for advanced rescue and air ambulances (helicopters). With a large refinancing in the various regions, will have increased the supply of vehicles and instruments, upgrades and,where necessary,replacement of old ones with new ones more functional and efficient.

    All facilities operate 24 hours a day.
    In any case, the entire System of Health Emergency-118 will remain under the control and management of government, and is fully guaranteed to all citizens (without charges,free).


    ACTION FOR PERSONNEL & TRASPARENCY


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Foreign-Objects-in-Bodies-nhs


    The law also includes measures for personnel employed in the National Health Service,with various measures aimed at transparency and the improvement of working conditions in the sector.

    First,there is an extension of the release of the turn-over,or all employees who do not work more in the field (especially for retirements) will be replaced with the hiring of new workers. There is therefore a measure for the stabilization of temporary contracts (of all categories in the National Health Service),through their conversion into permanent contracts. Finally, there is a prohibition of a new fixed-term contracts by government,in all categories of the Service:the new hires will necessarily have permanent contracts.

    So there are measures for transparency, especially regarding the appointments of primaries,general managers and executives. With the new rules,the appointments will be made as clear and visible criteria motivated solely based on merit.
    The selection will follow, therefore, a phase of verification of the results not only on the basis of economic and management aspects but also on strategies and outcomes in terms of health. For the transaction transparency,will get further rules, such as the clinical results of each hospital,which will be made public on the internet,and made available to the people (who are the real "owners" of the National Health Service). In addition to this will be posted on the websites of each company hospital costs for the purchase of goods and services to facilitate the processes of transparency and competition to make more uniform the whole sector at the national level and get to a significant overall reduction in the purchase price.

    Obviously,if the National Health Service,by using the rules described above,will have stable jobs,well-paid and with excellent working conditions, workers will have to ensure maximum engagement and productivity. In particular, there are new rules to introduce periodic evaluations on the merits and to discourage bad behavior (such as absenteeism).


    DIGITALIZATION & NEW RULES ON COSTS


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 20110816_pronto_soccorso_padova


    The law provides for a total computerization and digitization of various practices of the National Health Service,to make the service more efficient and reduce costs.
    The key areas on which this innovative process of digitization are: Electronic Medical Records for each citizen,computerized management of medications for each citizen,prescription of drugs computerized,delivery of medical reports online,reservation of health services on the internet. Also apply the so-called Electronics Health Insurance (insurance is managed by the government and is free for all). In this way,through a national database safe and secure,any hospital or pharmacy, in real time,can access to the medical records of each patient,to review the medications he needs or ongoing therapies. The digitized and computerized system will allow rapidity and speed, combined, however, with the privacy of the citizen, and will reduce billionaires wastages (money that will be properly reinvested in the National Health Service).

    To reduce inefficiencies, there is also the establishment of a Unique National Center for Health Purchasing, organized at the national level and managed by the Ministry of Health. It will be the structure that will handle the health purchases (up from drugs to medical equipment) at the central level,and will have a dedicated area for each Region. It will also sorting the purchased material to the regional and local structures of the National Health Service,according to the specific needs and requirements really necessary. In this way, local governments will no longer have freedom of health care spending,but will avoid unnecessary squandering of billions of euro (which will be properly reinvested).


    REORGANIZATION OF HEALTH TICKET & GOVERNANCE


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Ambulanze1


    The National Health Service,as already repeatedly stated,it is a universal system that guarantees all citizens all the necessary care,managed entirely by the state and which is maintained by general taxation (the common taxes). The 90% of medical and health benefits (including health insurance,vaccinations and medications),in which is included the whole of life-saving medical care, is at the expense of the state. For the other,is introduced a co-financing between citizen and state, the health ticket.

    The health ticket,through this law,is modulated according to income. It is a tax scale,based on ability to pay of the person, and then increases with income. In any case, the ticket can not stay within more than a certain threshold,and is determined solely by the Ministry of Health. However, all persons who have an income below the national median income,with the new rules, are excluded from payments. They are also excluded from the payment of special categories of people, such as pensioners and the elderly,children,chronically ill and other people at risk (pregnant women, or persons performing particular jobs).

    The law strengthens the role of the Ministry of Health in the governance of the National Health Service,which retrieves real capacity of government health policy,in a ratio of full and fair institutional collaboration with the regions, carrying out fully its function of directing,monitoring,assessment of the innovation system with the criteria of homogeneity and equity of access to care.

    REFERENDUM FAILS
    But Separatist Governor Is Re-Elected


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Sanader
    In a dramatic and extremely close election night in Talanzaar, sovereignty in Uihotu has been rejected, with 49.7% voting NO (17,892,052 votes) and 49.3% voting YES (17,856,441 votes), a difference of just over 35,000 votes. This comes as the Governor who started it all, Ward Tobias, was re-elected with 47% of the vote, beating his opponent who had 45% of the vote. This is a 14 point swing FOR Tobias's opponent, who was defeat by Tobias with 61% of the vote in 2010. "Its a victory for everyone who loves this nation" said the President, recorded at a party celebrating this election. "Sadly the Governor was re-elected, but winning with 47% doesn't give you a mandate. I say he should resign or the people should immediately call a re-call election." continued the President. Back at the "YES" side's HQ, the Governor looked deeply saddened as he conceded the referendum, but strangely made no comment about his re-election. "The people have spoken, although not clearly." said the Governor. "It was clear that there are alot of us out there who want independence. We must peruse what our hearts desire." continued the Governor. "He keeps pointing out the fact that the NO side did not receive a majority of the vote -- NEITHER DID HE!" said a exuberant NO supporter.

    What comes next is confusing for Talanzaar -- Uihotuians do not want to separate, but their governor does. Multiple attempts have already been made on the Governor's life and the Presidents . . . the ULF has promised to kill the President after the election results. .. -- will the Governor survive the next 4 years? Will the President survive the next 2? Or will the political drama end them. . . literally.

    Talanzaars largest and most popular news network - - TNN, has published an explosive report on the emergence of Crysis -- a Planitan terrorist gang that has been reportedly sending agents to Talanzaar to give the separatist ULF terrorist groups drugs, weapons and cash. "This report clearly shows that gangs from Planita are arriving here." said a Professor. "The threat is not large but we need to crack down on these people -- chain them up and send them back where they came from." The State House says its aware of the threats and may consider lobbying for tougher immigration laws, but will the Liberal Prime Minister agree to such laws?

    THE GOVERNMENT LAUNCHES NEW AGRICOLTURAL POLICIES
    New tools and funding to promote development,economic growth,innovation and sustainability in a strategic sector for the economy
    New policies that will make European agriculture the most developed in the region


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Pp_nuovi_modelli_agricoltura


    After approval by a large majority by the European Parliament of the large package of laws,the Government and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry Policies have been able to start the Agriculture Development and Sustainability Strategy aimed to revitalize,modernize,and develop a strategic sector for the national economy,focusing on the development of agricultural enterprises,technological innovation,fairness and justice for farmers and environmental sustainability.

    It must to remember what they represent agriculture and breeding of the nation. Thanks to the exceptional development of this sector, to the European citizens is ensured food security. As a society, we can be sure that our farmers produce the food we need. They provide a wide variety of products abundant,affordable,safe and of good quality. The Europe is known worldwide for its food quality and its secular culinary traditions. With its outstanding agricultural resources,Europe can and should play a key role in ensuring food security of the entire planet.

    Agriculture is not just about food production, but also the rural communities and the people who live there, as well as our natural environment and its precious resources. In all European Regions,farmers maintain in life the countryside and rural areas and perpetuate rural lifestyles.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Crisi-ucraina-pane-e-pasta-piu-cari-in-italia_25418


    Agricultural enterprises,from small and medium-sized enterprises,often family-run businesses to large,hundreds of thousands and employ millions of people. But we must also count all related areas. Number of jobs in rural areas depend on agriculture. Farmers need of machines,buildings,fuel,fertilizers and health care for their animals. So agriculture holds in life construction companies,chemical and mechanical industries,professionals of various kinds. Many people find employment in these industries 'upstream',others are involved in the 'downstream' companies,related to preparation,processing and packaging of food,and others involved in the storage, transport and retail sale of food products.

    The campaigns are not in the original natural state,but have been shaped over the centuries by agriculture,which created the variety of environments and landscapes that we know. Our space is the natural habitat of many species of animals and plants. This biodiversity is essential for the sustainable development of the countryside. The farmers manage natural space for the benefit of all of us and provide public goods,among the most important of which include the care and maintenance of the land,landscape and biodiversity. Farmers and agriculture are essential for the preservation of the natural environment and biodiversity.

    Consequently, the main objectives of the Agriculture Development and Sustainability Strategy are: to improve agricultural productivity through innovation,modernization and development,so that consumers can count on stable supplies of food at affordable prices,environmental protection,through sustainable agricultural techniques,high quality food products and energy efficiency,and ensure a decent standard of living for European farmers. The new policy, by means of instruments, and the massive investment incentives, which amount to a total of hundreds of billions of Euros, aims to achieve this goals.

    At the central level,new tools and new regulations will be managed by the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies,with an apposite agency,the Agency for Agriculture Sustainment. At the local level,the new policies,funding and tools will be managed by the Regions,through specific agencies,Regional Agricolture Sustainment Agencies.


    FIRST PILLAR - PRODUCTIVE INVESTMENTS ON AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISES & FOOD INDUSTRY


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 ESA_BIC_Flanders_c_large


    Farmers play in rural areas a very important economic role,which the EU can not afford to give up. The skills instinctive and fundamental of agriculture can not be captured on the pages of a book,but are handed down from generation to generation. For this reason,the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies considers it necessary to support the development of agricultural enterprises of all types and sizes.

    The first tool available is aimed at the development and modernization of entire agricultural supply chains in specific geographic areas,which contain agricultural enterpreses (including the small and medium sized),food and agro-industries,transportation and sale companies. It is the Contract of Supply Chain. All companies involved,creating a cooperative that includes also banks and public authorities (specialized agencies,local authorities,Ministry),plan an investment operations aimed at strengthening of structures,infrastructure and equipments of the all companies,and development of all businesses. At that point,the public authorities,after careful consideration,cover part of the costs, up from 50% to 90% of total expenditure,thus delivering a public investment to the cooperative of companies. Contract of Supply Chain is a tool that lets quickly a large development of the entire agricultural supply chain, not only from the economic point of view, but also from the environmental point of view.

    The Contracts of Program fall within the negotiated programming tools provided to support employment and development through the involvement of public and private entities,such as the Ministry,Regions,local authorities,large agricultural enterprises and consortia of small and medium agricultural enterprises. The companies,which can be of different sectors and various agricultural supply chains,even in large geographical areas,develop with the support of the public, an investment plan,aimed at the development,employment support and modernization,according to close constraints of environmental sustainability. Hence public authorities shall cover,through public grants and loans,much of the costs.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Agricoltura


    The short supply chain or short circuit, it is that particular type of business based on the direct relationship between producers (farmers) and consumers,which makes it possible to experiment with new forms of exchange,encounter, cooperation. For this reason the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies and local authorities,through the Fund for the Short Chain, are committed to massively encourage,stimulate and develop short supply chain in all agricultural sectors. In fact, the short chain brings huge benefits, including
    - The recognition of a fair value to the productions of the farmers;
    - Support for the consumption of local products in the area,resulting in stimulation of seasonal consumption and reduce the environmental impact resulting from transportation and packaging;
    - The stimulus to consumption "aware" of the consumer,which is given the opportunity to know the location of their purchases and make a substantial control on their quality;
    - The restoration of the link with the territory,also depending on the enhancement of biodiversity.

    Finally, there is an emphasis on support to small and medium-sized farms, the real backbone of the entire agricultural sector. The first tool and the Agricultural Guarantee Fund, which essentially serves to encourage investment by banks to small and medium-sized agricultural enterprises (which are generally seen as "too risky" for loans). The public authorities, namely the Ministry and local authorities will provide to companies who request a public guarantee, which then attract additional financing from banks. In practice, for every euro of guarantees provided to undertakings arrive more than 20 euro investment. The Fund has availabe more than 40 billion, then businesses will be able to get loans at least twenty times higher. For the small and medium-sized enterprise,so it is generally impossible to gain access to bank loans,the Ministry and local authorities have created the Agrarian Fund Microcredit. The Fund provides subsidized loans for the development and modernization of small agricultural enterprises in the form of micro-credit. The Agricultural Guarantee Fund and the Agrarian Fund Microcredit will provide a great development and a massive modernization of small and medium-sized farms, thus allowing greater efficiency, productivity and sustainability.


    SECOND PILLAR - INNOVATION,MODERNIZATION & FARMERS POLICIES


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 New-Holland-CR9000-10-trebbie


    The farms are generally relatively small. An average European farmer owns only 12 acres of land (equivalent to about 20 football fields) and 70% of the farms have an area of less than five hectares. Given the small size of their farms, farmers may find it difficult to obtain the best market price for their products. It sometimes happens that their efforts to improve quality and add value to products that are not rewarded by that price. The new government policy helps more and more farmers to strengthen their negotiating power towards other actors in the food chain. The European Government and the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies supports them through the Instrument for Agricultural Cooperatives (which provides a massive technical and financial assistance),by encouraging:
    • the establishment of producer organizations: these allow farmers to form associations and cooperatives for collective sale of their products and to exert more market power in the food chain,
    • Other forms of cooperation,in order to give the farmers greater market power and increase profit margins and competitiveness,
    • specialized types of production,such as biological agriculture  
    • contractual relationships along the food chain,
    • the creation of mutual funds and schemes insurance to allow farmers to respond more effectively to situations of market instability or to rapid price declines.

    The Ministry and local authorities,through the Instrument for Young Enterprise and Farmers Training, support the establishment of young farmers and young companies through financing for the purchase of land,machineries and facilities. It also provides grants for the training of new operators and farmers already settled with the latest technical methods of production. The need to encourage young farmers and to ensure continuity from one generation to another is a real challenge for rural development in the Europe,that the Government wants to overcome. In some regions of Europe where agriculture is particularly difficult,for example in hilly,mountainous, and / or remote zones,it is important to keep life in local communities. The Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies and the local authorities,through the Fund for Disadvantaged Areas provides the necessary instruments and loans to ensure that rural communities in vulnerable areas remain in good economic conditions, to ensure the development and modernization of local businesses.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Ambrosanio-Chiara2


    The new agricultural policies help farmers be more productive and improve their technical skills. First, the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies,through specific government agencies,will engage in massive activities for research and development in the agricultural sector,committing several tens of billions of investments (both public and private),and cooperating with private operators and and research organizations. In addition, through the Fund for Agricultural Innovation, the Ministry and local authorities will support, will stimulate and encourage massively, by farmers:
    • adopt methods that reduce emissions of greenhouse gases,
    • use environmentally friendly farming techniques,
    • comply with the rules in the fields of health, environment and animal welfare,
    • produce and market specialty foods of their regions,
    • make more productive use of forests and wooded areas,
    • develop new uses for agricultural products in areas such as cosmetics, medicine and crafts.

    The modernization of agricultural holdings is a key objective for the agricultural policies goernative, and, in fact, the Ministry, in cooperation with local authorities, has created the specific Fund for the Modernization of Agriculture. The aim is to ensure that the modernization help farmers to become economically competitive and to implement environmentally sustainable techniques. Many farmers use the funds to modernize facilities and equipment, to upgrade the infrastructure and to improve the welfare of farmed animals. The Fund will remain an important driver of change and progress: it will continue to offer farmers the opportunity to improve their businesses and, more generally, rural areas where they live. Grants and loans play a major role, but there are other ways to help farmers. The training programs and business consulting services are some of the less visible, which, however, give a valuable aid to farmers across the nation


    THIRD PILLAR - RURAL ENVIRONMENT AND AGRICULTURE


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 194037_m


    Although agriculture is the main economic activity in most rural areas, farmers also carry out other activities. Often also deal with the transformation of their products and sell them directly to consumers. About half of the European population lives in rural areas. Without agriculture many rural communities would cease to exist, and there would simply the abandonment the land. For this reason,the new agricultural policy gives farmers a massive financial and technical assistance through the Rural Agricultural Fund. The aim is to ensure that they continue to work the land and create additional jobs through the renewal of their villages,protection of landscape and natural environment,as well as projects in the field of cultural heritage and many other tasks directly or indirectly connected with agriculture and the rural economy. Public services,such as schools,infrastructures and public health,through this Fund are mantained and improved,giving people a reason to stay in the countryside and grow there their children.

    About half of European territory is cultivated. As a result, agriculture is actually a very important element for our natural environment. Over the centuries the agriculture contributed to the creation and preservation of numerous natural habitats of great value,which today characterize the different landscapes in the nation and are home to flora and fauna extremely varied. Agriculture and nature affect each other. Thanks to the new agricultural policies our methods of production become more environmentally friendly. Nowadays, farmers must therefore play two roles: to produce our food and manage the landscape. Thanks to a new specific instrument,the Agrarian Environment Fund,which provides massive financial and technical assistance,farmers are expected to adopt environmentally friendly farming methods. In practice, this means that they must maintain permanent grassland (grass absorbs carbon dioxide, thereby helping to combat climate change), have a minimum number of crops and manage at least 85% of the arable land (the so-called 'area of ecological interest ") with methods that promote biodiversity and environmental protection,ensure the welfare of farmed animals,take care of water resources and the maintenance of the landscape. They may also receive additional support if they adopt more stringent practices in the field of agri-environment. Environmental protection and biodiversity by farmers and agriculture enterprises is also a must to access all other loans analyzed until now.


    FOURTH PILLAR - ENERGY AND AGRICULTURE


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Trattore2


    Agriculture and Energy,clean and sustainable,are now closely linked in an inseparable pair. Of course you can not make agriculture a powerhouse for the entire nation,but you can do so that it becomes self-sufficient in terms of energy. The new government policies, guided by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fostry Policies and coordinated by local authorities, are designed precisely to this.

    First of all,through the Fund for Agriculture Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy,the Ministry and local authorities aim to promote the use of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency for farms through massive loans, tax deductions and technical assistance. These tools are aimed at the modernization of facilities,infrastructures,vehicles and equipments to make them as efficient as possible in terms of energy consumption. The Fund therefore, encourage and promote the use of renewable energy sources to ensure energy self-sufficiency to agricultural enterprises. For example,it encouraged the creation of structures for geothermal energy and district heating,the creation of small wind farms,the creation small but efficient hydroelectric plants on water infrastructure,or the installation of photovoltaic panels on the agriculture structures (barns, sheds...). For efficiency, the Fund strongly encourage the aggregation of multiple agricultural enterprises into cooperatives to support the joint management of renewable energy installations, so they can ensure energy independence for most enterprises at the same time. The financial and technical support of the Fund will contribute to making agriculture virtually autonomous from the energy point of view, and to reduce energy consumption.

    With regard to the production of energy from biomass,the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies and local authorities have created a specific tool for financial and technical support,the Fund for Biomass in Agriculture. The Fund will support the creation of biomass from agricultural enterprises especially from waste and by-products of crops, livestock and forestry. However, the new regulations impose serious limits on how much can be removed, allowing farmers to ensure procurement of biomass,but at the same time avoiding that the land remain without organic matter and without humus. With regard to forestry,the Fund will provide the tools to ensure their complete rehabilitation and sustainable management,and support their use by agricultural cooperatives. The Fund will support massively the creation of biomass power plants, biogas plants and bio-refineries for the production of heat and electricity. The new regulations provide that such structures should only be used to guarantee the energy autonomy to agricultural enterprises and,as far as possible,to the rural areas. The new regulations provide that all agricultural enterprises present in a common geographic area must meet in cooperative,that will be supported by the Fund,for the management of the facilities and of the services of production,procurement,storage and transportation of biomass. The power plants will be able to receive biomass only from agricultural enterprises within a range of 50 km,which generally will be all part of the cooperatives that manage plants themselves,to avoid too many emissions caused by transport. In this way, the farmers will be able to guarantee the energy autonomy for electricity and for heating,for their own businesses and for rural areas,while biomass plants and correlated services,generally small in size and all directly managed by farmers,with the support of local authorities,will highlight the full potential of agricultural energies.

    A word aside to be spent for the crops exclusively for biomass. The Fund for Biomass in Agriculture will support their diffosione, however, the regulations require to be included in rotation with traditional food crops and intended solely for local supply chains for biomass. The crops for biomass, in particular, may be grown on marginal land, or abandoned by time, so as not preguidicare the production of crops for food.


    FIFTH PILLAR - FOOD QUALITY


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Prodotti-DOP-e-IGP


    Europe is a country internationally renowned for its wide variety of food,but especially for the high quality of food,wine and beer it produces. In fact, one of the main export items are food,and European citizens are proud of consume high quality products. All this is the result of a vast culinary cultureand gastronomic, which has its roots in the millennia. The top priority of the Government is to spread and,above all,defend the quality food products on the domestic market and on the international market,and for this reason the Ministry of Agricultural and Forestry Policies launched an innovative labeling system. This will contribute to enhancing the local culinary traditions, spreading the food quality.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 5015381_300x300

    The PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) designates a food product in all its stages in a given region,with skills recognized and local ingredients,and whose characteristics are related to the geographical origin. Among the PDO include many cheeses (such as Queso Manchego,or Feta),meats (such as Prosciutto di San Daniele),olive oil (such as Umbria,Kalamata,Montoro-Adamuz),as well as fruit and vegetables and,of course,numerous wines.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Znak_en

    The PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) means a food whose quality or reputation is linked to a region in which it takes place at least one stage of production. As examples we can mention several beers (as Münchener Bier,Českobudějovické Pivo),meat (such as Scotch Beef,various types of poultry French),as well as bakery products and fishery products (in particular the Scottish Farmed Salmon).


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 Images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSwl4EXh1_1NUT0lNKpd7Fcpotz1uSim6O63sxkL0fsMLoR_ape

    The term Traditional Specialty Guaranteed,better known by the acronym TGS,is a mark of origin aimed at protecting productions that are characterized by compositions or traditional production methods. This certification is intended for agricultural products and foodstuffs that have a "specific" related to the method of manufacture or composition linked to the tradition of the area,but that are not necessarily produced only in that area. Even a TGS preparation must conform to a precise specification.


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 31kSwy1jpmL._SX425_

    There is a European brand specific for organic products,the Organic Product Mark,which ensures compliance of European production standards in the field of organic farming. The latter respects the natural cycles of plants and animals,limiting as much as possible the impact of human activities on the environment and uses methods of production strictly comply with European legislation precise and rigorous.

    A Man Cleans After a Election Party

    The results of the recent referendum and gubernatorial elections in Uihtou have been finalized after a long recount. In the end, the results stayed the same -- separatist Governor Ward Tobias was re-elected and the referendum failed, creating an awkward relationship between Tobias and the people, the majority of which did not support his referendum or him. The recounted results show the Governor re-elected with 47% of the vote, beating his opponent by 2.1 percentage points and the "NO" side of the referendum won by 0.5%. The results are a major political victory for President Marko Davidovic, who said he would resign if the people of Uihotu did not want to remain apart of the Union. "If we lost, it would be a major rejection of -- me, so if the results were different, I would've resigned and let Vice President Ehrlichman lead the charge." said the President. "The results show that the people are split very evenly on whether or not they want to stay apart of Talanzaar, so I will use every day I have left in this office to make them want to stay."

    Talanzaar's Minister of Defense, Martin Delore, released a statement very late at night announcing the creation of a new prison camp, specifically created to detain the new influx of gangsters arriving from Planita. "Our Government puts the safety of the people first, which is why we have created this new high-security camp that will keep prisoners locked away before we can send them away to their home nations." said Minister Delore. "Military personnel will be present there so they can use their skills to extract much-needed information from these monsters. Rest assured, the people of this nation are safe and we intend to keep it that way." said the Minister. The Minister also advised Planita to be prepared to handle prisoners born in their nation because "Talanzaar shouldn't be the one to deal with Planita's problems."

    EURASIA BEGINS FIVE PART CLEAN ENERGY PLAN
    Comprehensive plan aims to reduce Eurasian carbon emissions.




    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 A7d83356-9f75-464b-a4a9-da862c556d3a_zps9257c1ac




    The Supreme State Senate and Assembly voted today to enact the Environmental Revitalization and Protection Act of 2014, a comprehensive law that will work to reduce the Eurasian carbon footprint, as well as help to lessen the impact industrialization and pollution have had on the Eurasian environment. The law will involve a five point plan that will each act in a different way to achieve the same goal; preserving the Eurasian environment and focusing on alternative sources of power.

    The five point plan will consist of: I: Establishment of a Ministry of the Environment; II: Enactment of strict anti-pollution laws; III: Government investments into alternative energy sources; IV: Creation of "Ecological Preserves" and "Safe Areas;" V: Restricting Fossil Fuel Industries


    Point I: Establishment of a Ministry of the Environment



    To oversee the implementation and enforcement of the new laws and regulations, the Ministry of the Environment will be created. Its primary purpose will be to oversee the anti pollution procedures, as well as partnering with the Ministry of Energy to oversee the implementation of new green energy technologies. The Ministry will be headed by longtime environmental advocate Senator Themelis Suriette, and will be headquartered in New Warsaw. The Ministry will also manage the newly created ecological preserves, highlighted in point IV, with the implementation of new Environmental Officers, who will have the same authority as regular police officials.

    The Ministries initial budget will be $3 billion Kopecks, and it will have an annual budget of $1 billion Kopecks after that. While some have criticized what they see as a frivolous misuse of funds, the authors of the law have said that "Any frugality when it comes to funding would ultimately serve to work against the wishes of the Eurasian people and would harm the environment."


    Point II: Enactment of Strict Anti-Pollution Laws



    Point II involves passing strict anti pollution laws that will curb Eurasian carbon emissions. These laws, which range from emissions by factories to emissions in automobiles, will be enforced by the aforementioned Ministry of the Environment. The goal of the laws is to establish a clean air situation in Eurasia, as well as reduce the emissions from factories by 90%. The factory reductions are to take place by establishing guidelines that will be rigorously enforced, such as filtering smoke and steam emissions to remove particulate matter, filtering any liquid waste until it is habitable for aquatic animals (should it be over 50% water) or shipping it to ME (Ministry of the Environment) designated disposal sites.

    Regulations on vehicles will mainly be for the producers of automobiles instead of the consumers. All automobiles will be required to have proper exhaust filtration, and will be expected to, if they run on petroleum based fuels, ensure that the fuels have been refined so as to minimize emissions as much as possible.


    Point III: Government Investments into Alternative Energy Sources



    To encourage green and alternative energy corporations to begin operations in Eurasia, the government will begin offering unique, tailored investments into companies that use such technology. The investments will take the form of either specially designated operation zones, direct liquid funds to jump start businesses, or a reduction of the price to start a green energy company. The government has designated solar power, wind power, geothermal power, hydroelectric power, thorium based nuclear power, biofuel, and hydrogen based energy as alternative energy sources, but they are by no means limited to these sources. The Ministry of Energy has created a special Select Committee to oversee the creation of new technologies that can be added to the list.

    The government has set aside special funds to be managed by the Ministry of Energy that will be invested in green companies, which total around $50 billion kopecks. Some economists theorize that this latest venture may do wonders to get the economy moving again, as the new economic sector could provide thousands of new jobs.


    Point IV: Creation of Economic Preserves and Safe Areas



    To preserve the beauty of the Eurasian environment, the Ministry of the Environment will establish "Ecological Preserves," which will be areas of Eurasian wilderness that will be forbidden for development and tourism, and will serve only for various flora and fauna to develop. These preserves will be established in every Eurasian state and province, and will be off limits to the general population except for designated observation points, to preserve the integrity of the ecosystem. The government will take strict measures to ensure the ecosystems are protected, including enacting harsh fines for littering and disposing of waste improperly near the areas.

    The government will also build "Safe Areas," which will be areas near roadways and highways for animals to safely pass through without being killed or harmed by vehicles. These will be tunnels underneath the roadways or above them, that will be fenced in, to allow for the animals safe passage. While these will protect the animals from harm, it will also protect Eurasian drivers. Roughly 2,000 people die each year in Eurasia from crashes involving animals, and the safe areas will help to eliminate those deaths.


    Point V: Restricting Fossil Fuel Industry



    The government will finally enact tough restrictions on the fossil fuel industry. The petroleum based industries are already marginalized in Europe and Asia, and these laws will serve to allow green technology to take the role that they formerly occupied. More, the corporations are being encouraged to change their developments over to green technology. The restrictions set in place will include restricting where oil can be drilled, discouraging harmful practices like fracking, restricting where oil can be refined, and placing tough restrictions on power plants that use coal or other fossil fuels.

    THE COPERNICUS SATELLITE SYSTEM IS ACTIVE
    The most advanced Earth observation system,which will provide accurate information about natural phenomena
    An important system for the management of the environment and for interventions in natural disasters
    Advanced technology that has enabled the development of the European productive sector

    The SENTINEL 1-A satellite in orbit


    With the launch, which took place a few days ago at the National Spaceport of New Strasbourg,of the last satellite in the constellation, the Copernicus Satellite System is officially active and ready for use. But what is it?

    Copernicus is the most ambitious Earth observation programme to date. It provide accurate,timely and easily accessible information to improve the management of the environment, understand and mitigate the effects of climate change and ensure civil security. Copernicus is the new name for the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security programme, previously known as GMES. Copernicus provides a unified system through which vast amounts of data, acquired from space and from a multitude of in situ sensors,are fed into a range of thematic information services designed to benefit the environment, the way we live, humanitarian needs and support effective policy-making for a more sustainable future.

    This initiative is headed by the European Space Agency (ESA),in partnership with the European Environment Agency (EEA). It is one of the pillars of the space program of the European Government,the second in importance after Galileo Global Positioning System,activated a few weeks ago.

    The system consists of a constellation of 30 highly advanced satellites,with innovative tools for Earth observation. For the ground segment, has an efficient network of centers of mission control and sensors. ESA coordinates the delivery of data from upwards of satellites,while the EEA is responsible for data from airborne and ground sensors.

    The system is a jewel of the European aerospace industry,wich required tens of billions of investments. The satellites and the ground segment have been produced by a variety of European high-tech enterprises,which then had the opportunity to develop and increase investment. In addition,thanks to the space project,it was possible to create new highly specialized permanent jobs. In short,Copernicus led development and new technological know-how for the European industry, allowing a great economic growth.


    SPACE SEGMENT - Six sentinels in the space

    All Sentinel satellites


    ESA has developed a new family of missions called Sentinels Missions specifically for the operational needs of the Copernicus programme. These instruments are equipped with highly advanced technologies.

    Each Sentinel mission is based on a constellation of four satellites to fulfil revisit and coverage requirements,providing robust datasets for Copernicus services. These missions carry a range of technologies,such as radar and multi-spectral imaging instruments for land, ocean and atmospheric monitoring.

    The ESA Sentinel-1 Mission is designed as a four-satellite constellation. The identical satellites orbit Earth 180° apart and at an altitude of almost 700 km. This configuration optimises coverage,offering a global revisit time of just six days (the satellites map the entire Earth every six days). Designed and built by a consortium of around 60 companies led by the state-owned European Aerospace Corporation,the Sentinel satellites are an outstanding example of Europe’s technological excellence.

    Each satellite,weighing 2300 kg,has been designed for a minimum lifetime of seven years in orbit. As well as the 12-m long radar,the satellites each carry two 10 m-long solar wings. During launch,the solar wings and radar are folded up for protection and to fit into the rocket fairing. After the satellite is released into space,the solar wings and radar deploy together,but in a specific sequence that takes around 10 hours to complete. The sequence is unique,choreographed to ensure that both deploy in the safest possible way. The sequence also allows power from the wings to be available as soon as possible so that the satellite is independent.

    The Sentinel 1 Mission will benefit numerous services. For example,services that relate to the monitoring of Arctic sea-ice extent,routine sea-ice mapping,surveillance of the marine environment,including oil-spill monitoring and ship detection for maritime security,monitoring land-surface for motion risks,mapping for forest,water and soil management and mapping to support humanitarian aid and crisis situations. The design of Sentinel-1 with its focus on reliability,operational stability, global coverage and quick data delivery is expected to enable the development of new applications and meet the evolving needs of Copernicus.


    SENTINEL-2 MISSION

    The four satellites of Sentinel-2 Mission will routinely deliver high-resolution optical images globally. Sentinel-2 will carry an optical payload with visible near infrared and shortwave infrared sensors comprising 13 spectral bands: 4 bands at 10 m,6 bands at 20 m and 3 bands at 60 m spatial resolution (the latter is dedicated to atmospheric corrections and cloud screening),with a swath width of 290 km. The 13 spectral bands guarantee consistent time series,showing variability in land surface conditions and minimising any artefacts introduced by atmospheric variability.

    Data from Sentinel-2 will benefit services associated with, for example,land management by European and national institutes, the agricultural industry and forestry, as well as disaster control and humanitarian relief operations. Imagery for the generation of high-level operational products,such as land-cover maps,land-change detection maps and geophysical variables that use,for example,leaf area index,leaf chlorophyll content and leaf water content will be provided. Images of floods, volcanic eruptions and landslides will also be acquired by Sentinel-2. In essence,Sentinel-2 combines a large swath,frequent revisit,and systematic acquisition of all land surfaces at high-spatial resolution and with a large number of spectral bands, all of which makes a unique mission to serve Copernicus.


    SENTINEL-3 MISSION

    The four satellites Sentinel-3 Mission's main objective is to measure sea-surface topography,sea- and land-surface temperature and ocean- and land-surface colour with high-end accuracy and reliability in support of ocean forecasting systems, and for environmental and climate monitoring. Near-realtime data will be provided for ocean forecasting, sea-ice charting, and maritime safety services needing accurate and timely measurements of the state of the ocean surface, including surface temperature,ocean ecosystems,water quality and pollution monitoring. Land services to monitor land-use change, forest cover,photosynthetic activity,soil quality and fire detection will also benefit significantly from Sentinel-3.


    SENTINEL-4 / SENTINEL-5 MISSIONS

    The Sentinel-4 and Sentinel-5 Missions (each with four satellites) are dedicated to monitoring the composition of the atmosphere for Copernicus atmosphere services. Both missions will be carried on highly advanced and technological meteorological satellites. The Sentinel-4 and Sentinel-5 Missions will provide information on atmospheric variables in support of European policies. Services will include the monitoring of air quality, stratospheric ozone and solar radiation, and climate monitoring.


    GROUND SEGMENT


    Esamir National News Network  - Page 1 9988845


    As well as the challenging task of building and launching a satellite,the success of an Earth observation mission relies on being able to operate the satellite from the ground and ensure that the data gathered are of good quality and made readily available to users.
    To achieve this,a flight control centre with an antenna to send commands to the satellite is needed,together with at least one ground station to receive the  data as they are 'downlinked' from the satellite as it passes overhead. Facilities for data processing, storage and distribution are also needed.
    Last but not least, the quality of the data and the performance on the satellite sensors have to be monitored continuously. If need be, action, such as 'calibration activities', have to be carried out promptly,guaranteeing the overall performance of the mission. These functions are all ensured by the ground segment.


    CORE GROUND SEGMENT


    The Sentinel Core Ground Segment allows all Sentinel data to be acquired systematically,processed and distributed. It includes elements for monitoring and controlling the Sentinel satellites and for downloading, processing and disseminating the data to the users. It also has mechanisms for monitoring and controlling the quality of the data products, as well as facilities for data archiving. The infrastructure is 'distributed',meaning that although the various centres (ESA owned) are in different places in Europe,and they are linked and coordinated. Despite the complexity of the system, users are offered a single virtual access point for locating and downloading the products.

    The main elements are:
    - Flight Operations Segment (FOS) –  responsible for all aspects of Sentinels flight operations,including monitoring and control,the execution of all platform activities and command of payload schedules.
    - Core Ground Stations – where the Sentinels data are downlinked and products are generated in near-real time. A network of X-band radar ground stations allows data to be downlinked.
    - Processing and Archiving Centres (PACs) – where systematic non-time-critical data processing is performed. All data products are archived for online access by users. A network of PACs supports all the processing and archiving of Sentinels data.
    - Mission Performance Centres (MPCs) – responsible for calibration,validation,quality control and end-to-end system performance assessment. The MPCs include expert teams for specific calibration and validation,offline quality control and algorithm correction, and evolution activities.
    - Sentinel Precise Orbit Determination Facility (POD) – makes use of the GNSS receiver data on the Sentinels to deliver the orbital information needed to generate the data products.
    - Copernicus Space Component Wide Area Network (CSC WAN) – allows all products and auxiliary data to be carried across the various ground segment facilities and provides disseminated data products to the end users.

    COPERNICUS SPACE COMPONENT DATA ACCES SYSTEM


    The overall space capacity, beyond the single missions, is coordinated through the Copernicus Space Component Data Access System. This is carried out in agreement with contributing data providers.  The system provides comprehensive and coordinated access to space data, to:
    - link transparently the different data providers and the various Copernicus services using specific coordinating functions;
    - create synergy and sustainability across the various contributing missions;
    - access a simplified interface for advertisements and the service desk rather than using multiple data provider interfaces.

    The system is the hub of an interoperable network of distributed European ground segments stations contributing to Copernicus,culminating in a harmonised,one-stop-shop for users. Data and services are accessible in the form of datasets, which are pre-defined collections of coherent (single and/or multimission) products that are derived from service requirements after trade-off considering the overall capacity of the space component. The system is managed by ESA as an integral part of the Copernicus Satellite System.


    SENTINEL COLLABORATIVE GROUND SEGMENT


    The Sentinel Collaborative Ground Segment complements the exploitation of the Sentinel Missions in a number of areas, such as:
    - Data acquisition and (near-) realtime production. Local ground stations are configured to receive Sentinel data as the satellite passes overhead.
    - Complementary products and algorithm definitions – these ‘collaborative data products’ may be tailored for regional coverage or specific applications. These types of products may extend the Sentinel core product chains.
    - Data dissemination and access, supporting redistribution of Sentinel core products by establishing additional pick-up points.
    - Development of innovative tools and applications.  
    - Complementary support to calibration/validation activities.


    COPERNICUS SERVICES

    Copernicus is all about delivering products and services to manage and protect the environment and natural resources, and ensure civil security. The monitoring capacity of Copernicus will be used for the benefit of both Europe and the international community.

    Copernicus will provide services for a range of different applications such as air-quality forecasting, flood warnings, early detection of drought and desertification, early warnings of severe weather, oil-spill detection and drift prediction, sea-water quality, crop analysis, forest monitoring, land-use change, agriculture, food security and humanitarian aid – to name but a few.
    Copernicus services will provide essential information for six main domains: ocean, land and atmosphere monitoring, emergency response, security and climate change.
    - Services relevant to the marine environment include monitoring for marine safety and transport,oil-spill detection,water quality, weather forecasting and the polar environment.
    - Services relevant to the land environment include monitoring for water management, agriculture and food security,land-use change, forest monitoring, soil quality, urban planning and natural protection services.
    - Services relevant to the atmospheric include monitoring for air quality and ultraviolet radiation forecasts, greenhouse gases and climate forcing.
    - Services for emergency management response will help mitigating the effects of natural and manmade disasters such as floods, forest fires and earthquakes and contribute to humanitarian aid exercises.
    - Services for security will support peace-keeping efforts, maritime surveillance and border control.

    Services for monitoring climate change cross-cut all of the above domains.
    Copernicus services provide standardised multi-purpose information common to a broad range of application areas relevant to European policies,many of which are implemented at local or regional levels aiming at sustainability.
