U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) announced last week that he will retire from Congress at the end of the current term and leave politics to work in the justice system.
"I will not be filing for re-election to Congress or seeking any other political or elected office; instead I will be returning to the justice system," Gowdy said in a statement.
"Whatever skills I may have are better utilized in a courtroom than in Congress, and I enjoy our justice system more than our political system," he added. "As I look back on my career, it is the jobs that both seek and reward fairness that are most rewarding."
Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor, was elected in 2010 to serve South Carolina's 4th District, which includes Greenville and Spartanburg counties. He rose to prominence during the Obama administration as chairman of a special House committee investigating the 2012 terrorist attacks that left four Americans dead at a State Department compound in Benghazi, Libya.
The committee's investigation led to the discovery that Hillary Clinton had used a private email server during her time as secretary of state. The discovery prompted an FBI investigation, which concluded that Clinton had been careless but that her actions didn't warrant any criminal charges.
More recently, Gowdy played a leading role in the House Intelligence Committee's investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 election, including interactions between Moscow and President Donald Trump's campaign. He also took charge of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee after Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah retired from Congress in January 2017.
The announcement of Gowdy's retirement comes just weeks after the congressman resigned his post on the House Ethics Committee to mitigate what he cited as a "challenging workload."
Gowdy is the 36th Republican and 10th committee chairman to announce his retirement from the House rather than seek re-election in November. He plans to open a law firm in the Upstate, according to spokeswoman Amanda Gonzalez.
"Words cannot adequately express my gratitude to the people of South Carolina for the privilege of representing them in the House of Representatives. The Upstate of South Carolina has an incredible depth and breadth of assets including numerous women and men capable of representing us," Gowdy said. "I will always be grateful for the opportunity to serve in the people's House and — prior to Congress — to advocate on behalf of justice in our court systems."
News of Gowdy's departure garnered strong reactions from both sides of the political aisle.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, for instance, quickly issued a statement after Gowdy's announcement to voice discontent with how he had handled the investigation of the 2012 Benghazi attacks.
"Rep. Gowdy's tenure in Congress made a mockery of congressional oversight and his eagerness to use the deaths of brave Americans overseas in service of his partisan, political goals is a dark and shameful chapter in the history of the House of Representatives," said Patrick Burgwinkle, a spokesman for the committee.
However, Republican members of Congress all praised Gowdy.
In a statement released after Gowdy's announcement, Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., thanked his fellow South Carolina congressman for his service and friendship over the years. The two lawmakers recently co-authored a biographical book, titled "Indivisible: Overcoming Our Differences, One Friendship at a Time." It will be released in April.
"I want to thank Trey not just for his service to the Upstate, or his love for South Carolina, or his commitment to justice and the truth, but for being the honest, good hearted man I know he is and will continue to be. He has always put the people of Greenville-Spartanburg first, despite his Congressional responsibilities grabbing so many national headlines," Scott said in a statement.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., posted a series of tweets following Gowdy's announcement, saying that the decision was a "body blow to the House of Representatives, the conservative cause, and the people of South Carolina."
"Seldmon has a member of Congress made such a difference in so many ways — in a relatively short period of time — as Trey Gowdy. He is one of the most articulate advocates for the conservative cause and does so with humility and joy," Graham wrote. "His accomplishments are too numerous to list, but I believe his biggest legacy is how he balanced passion and kindness. I can say without hesitation Trey Gowdy is a true role model for public servants."
Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and a former South Carolina governor, also took to Twitter to praise her fellow Republican, saying the reason he was "so amazing at his job" was because "he disliked politics so much."
South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster released a statement, describing Gowdy's services as exemplary: "I have witnessed first hand Representative Gowdy's dedication and commitment to justice from the courtroom to Congress. His leadership and service on behalf of the Seventh Judicial Circuit, Fourth Congressional District, South Carolina, and America has been exemplary, and deserves the appreciation of all," McMaster said.
The National Republican Congressional Committee also released a statement last week to praise Gowdy, saying he would be "sorely missed." The committee also expressed confidence that South Carolina's 4th District would "stay solidly in Republican control."
At least four Democrats have already announced bids for Gowdy's congressional seat, including J.T. Davis of Simpsonville, a small-business owner and U.S. Army veteran; Chris Chastain of Pelzer, a certified electrician; Lee Turner of Greenville, a tax professional; and Will Morin of Simpsonville, an emergency medical technician.
Political analysts, however, don't expect Gowdy's seat to fall out of Republican control when the midterm election rolls around in November, as the district's voters haven't elected a Democrat to the House in more than two decades. Republicans who have announced plans to run for the seat include Spartanburg GOP Chairman Josh Kimbrell, state Rep. Dan Hamilton, R-Greenville, and state Sen. William Timmons, R-Greenville.
Former U.S. Rep. Bob Inglis, who lost to Gowdy in a primary runoff for Congress in 2010, also suggested last week on social media that he might run for the seat: "Before Trump, Tea Party & Birthers, I served where Trey Gowdy is now vacating," he tweeted. "'Will you run again — as a Republican?' I'm asked. Depends on whether my TED Talk here is what Rs believe. Or are these the words of a new party to be born in SC-4 or elsewhere?"

Oh, I'd like to think that ST's poor coverage (that pun landed right on my lap) of a badly-aligned walkway in Jurong was just shoddy journalism. Sadly, it looks like it's their best attempt at a cover-up. It took nearly a year for the project to get done, several residents of the area have told me, but ST dodges that fact and more.
Check out that headline for a start. Instead of something factual, like "LTA leaves project half-done for nearly a year", or something gentle like "LTA explanation for covered walkway: it was according to plan", ST chooses to go instead for "LTA clears up mystery of misaligned sheltered walkway in Jurong West", which is already watered down from their initial headline "LTA solves mystery…" (see the URL). Wow, way to turn a bad project into a heroic act.
Then, the paper doesn't even ask the very basic question of how long the walkway has been misaligned. Clearly LTA has the exact date, but noooo, don't ask them. And don't ask any long-time residents either. Instead, get a date from a teacher who just joined the school next door in July 2017, and who says that the joke of a walkway was already there when she joined.
And of course, no questions posed to LTA about why social media outcry resulted in the crossing getting fixed in just one day, when it took nearly a year of, what, nobody on the project noticed that something was amiss? Residents not saying anything? Grassroots didn't raise it to the MP? MP doesn't walk the ground? (Check the GRC map if you want to know who).
Any other reasons for the year-long delay? How much feedback has LTA received about the walkway since it was built? ST doesn't even ask these basic questions. For shame.
Meanwhile, PAP propaganda channels are going into overdrive to criticise those that criticised the project. Shoddy journalism opens the door to fake news, but I don't even know if you could call this shoddy journalism – perhaps more like ass-covering (for which you get the stink of faeces on you), or punches pulled so hard that the paper might as well hit itself in the face.

Judas called Christ Lord, Lord; and yet betrayed him, and has gone to his place. Ah! how many Judases have we in these days, that kiss Christ, and yet betray Christ; that in their words profess him—but in their works deny him; that bow their knee to him, and yet in their hearts despise him; that call him Jesus, and yet will not obey him for their Lord. ~ Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices by Thomas Brooks
The Doing Man is the Happiest Man
Know that it is not the knowing, nor the talking, nor the reading man—but the doing man, that at last will be found the happiest man. "If you know these things, blessed and happy are you if you DO them." (John 13:17) ~ Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices by Thomas Brooks
The Necessity of Serious Meditation on Heavenly Truths
Remember, it is not hasty reading—but serious meditating upon holy and heavenly truths, that make them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the bee's touching of the flower, which gathers honey—but her abiding for a time upon the flower, which draws out the sweet. It is not he who reads most—but he who meditates most, who will prove the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian. ~ Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices by Thomas Brooks


text: A recent front page New York Times story entitled The Assimilating Bagel told this tale about the crisis: Once a hard, round roll with a big hole in the center, the renowned bagel was a Jewish specialty which when eaten with cream cheese and lox allowed one to momentarily forget their worldly troubles. But the bagel is rapidly changing. Its crust is getting softer, the hole is getting smaller and little by little, the once unique bagel is turning into a bun. Replace bagel with Jewry and the metaphor is obvious. We are assimilating with frightening speed. As a Rabbi at Stanford University, Im occasionally called by distraught parents devastated by the impending intermarriage of their son or daughter. I always agree to meet the student, and in most cases the story is the same: Mom and Dad sent me to Hebrew school, and gave me a bar or bat mitzvah. But they always sent me mixed messages. When I neglected my secular education, they were angry, but when I missed Hebrew lessons, they didnt mind. I learned about the laws of Jewish life, but they did not seem to keep them, or if they did, they did so selectively. At my bar/bat mitzvah, they were more concerned about the catering than if I understood the words I recited in synagogue. As I grew older, they were more interested in which college I went to and which career I pursued than whether I was continuing to study and practice Judaism. They wanted me to marry a Jewish person, but gave me no real reason why. The Vital Fourth Generation It is said that inherited wealth lasts for three generations. The same applies to inherited Judaism. Todays young Jews are by and large of the fourth generation. In the fourth generation, Jewish identity is either renewed, or it vanishes. The Haggadah speaks of the famous Four Children at the Seder table. These, one may suggest, represent four successive generations. The wise son symbolizes the immigrant generation who received a good Jewish education and still lived Jewishly. The rebellious son is the second generation, who lacking a meaningful Jewish education, abandoned Jewish identity for social integration. The simple child is the third generation, confused by the mixed messages of religious grandparents and nonreligious parents. The child who cannot even ask the question is the fourth generation, who no longer has a memory or context of Jewish life. Todays youth are the fourth generation. They do not take for granted that they will marry another Jew or establish a Jewish home, or will raise Jewish children. Nothing can be taken for granted in the fourth generation, especially in an open society with its huge marketplace of competing ideologies. The fourth generation will choose to be Jewish for one reason only: knowing the sacred history of our people, sensing the richness of Jewish life, understanding the profundity of Judaism. The Cure to the Common BunTherefore we need a kind of nationwide Manhattan Project of education, so that all Jewish children can experience, learn and live their heritage and know that to be a Jew is to inherit a legacy which has shaped moral civilization and earned universal admiration for its strong community life, its love of family, its commitment to education, its passion for charity and social justice, and its infinitely loyal dedication to G-d and the values of Torah and Mitzvot. No child who has been touched by Judaisms spirit of eternity would willingly snap the link between the past and the future. As we celebrate Passover, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, we stand as if on a mountain peak surveying the majestic landscape of Jewish history. We know that those who sought to annihilate the Jewish people, from Pharaoh to Hitler, collect dust in museum exhibits, while Am Yisrael Chai, the people of Israel, live. If we would only remember the extraordinary miracles it took to get us to this day, we would joyfully do our task to ensure that the next generations Yiddishkeit is strong. This is the greatest gift we can give to the Jewish past and the Jewish future.(Rabbi Dov Greenberg is executive director of Rohr Chabad House at Stanford University and lectures regularly throughout the United States.

Chelsea vs. Southampton Preview
By, Ayodeji Itasanmi (Twitter: @aryhorblueblood)
Stamford Bridge/December 16, 2017
After two successive away matches we're back in the comfort of Stamford Bridge where we'll play our next two games with this game followed by the Carabao Cup quarter final match against Bournemouth on Wednesday. It was so important for us to get back on winning ways against Huddersfield Town on Tuesday night after what was a below par performance against the Hammers at the weekend. Thanks to the three points against Huddersfield on Tuesday night, we now a healthy four-point gap against the chasing pack in the race for the top four and Antonio Conte will want that to continue at the weekend with possibilities of stretching that lead with a win on Saturday.
This will be the 100th time these two teams will faced off with Chelsea having W41 D28 L30 from the previous 99 matches. Chelsea and Southampton have faced off in every domestic competition you can think of but mostly in the league. In the Premier League era, Chelsea have faced Southampton 38 times in three competitions (Premier League 36 League Cup 1 FA Cup 1) with Chelsea winning both cup competitions and a considerable number of league fixtures (W20 D8 L8). One thing this fixture has seen plenty of in recent times is goals, goals and more goals. In the last 15 matches between these two teams 51 goals were scored, with Chelsea getting most of them, on the average of 3.4 per match. In our last ten Premier League matches against Southampton we have scored at least one goal winning 5 of them (L2 D3). Southampton have had some joy on their recent visits to SW6, they have only lost twice in their last five trips to Stamford Bridge (D2 W1) scoring on every occasion. Only one of our last ten encounters with Southampton at Stamford Bridge have failed to produce a goal so I expect goals in this one and hopefully we'll score more than our opponents on Saturday.
Team Breakdowns
Antonio Conte freshened up the team for the trip to the John Smith's Stadium on Tuesday night with the quartet of Alvaro Morata, Cesc Fabregas, Gary Cahill and Davide Zappacosta making way for Antonio Rudiger, Victor Moses, Willian and Pedro as the coach switched from the 3-5-2 formation, that's gaining so much popularity around Stamford Bridge, to the 3-4-3 formation that delivered the Premier League title last season. In the absence of the tired (or injured) Alvaro Morata, Eden Hazard was deployed at the top of our 3-man attack but was swiftly replaced once the game has been made secure by Pedro's goal just before the hour mark. Willian has been pushing for a place back in the starting XI with his recent performances and he again showed why he's so valuable with another top quality performance with a goal and two assists to his name and he rightly walked away with the MOTM award and it's going to take some gut from the coach not to include him from the start on Saturday afternoon. Thibaut Courtois was within a few seconds of another clean sheet before Laurent Depoitre headed in the Terriers' consolation goal and that would have sting more than him conceding three goals but he should still continue in goal when the Saints come to town on Saturday afternoon. Depending on the extent of Alvaro Morata's back injury, Michy Batshuayi might get the chance to start a Premier League game for the first time since starting in the 2-1 loss to Crystal Palace earlier in the season because I doubt Conte will want to play Hazard as a 'false 9' against the tall and physical defense of Southampton. Cesc Fabregas should be well-rested by the time this game comes around hence should take his place beside Kante in what I expect to be a pretty physical midfield battle. Toni Rudiger hardly put a foot wrong in the game on Tuesday and should be in the running for another starting place on Saturday because he's so good at picking out the runs of our wingbacks with his diagonal passes. He did it so effectively while picking out the run of Kenedy for the first and last goals against Nottingham Forest in the earlier round of the Carabao Cup and he did so again on Tuesday when picking out Moses' run on several occasions and that's something not every defender is capable of. It was good to see Ethan Ampadu get his Premier League bow on Tuesday night and based on his composed performance it sure was the first of many more to come. The boss certainly made use of the opportunity presented by his players putting the game to bed early which afforded him the luxury to take off Hazard, Kante and Christensen all within the 70th minute mark to keep them fresh for the weekend.
Possible Line-up:

Mauricio Pellegrino will be looking to turn around the defeat to Leicester City on Wednesday night as soon as possible and what better way to do that than to get one over the reigning champions on their own patch. To say Southampton was poor against Leicester City would be an understatement as they were overran by a team coached by Claude Puel, who was shown the door at Saint Mary's just last summer, who has helped turned around the fortunes of the Foxes while the Saints languished in the bottom half of the table. Pellegrino has successfully convinced Virgil van Dirk to continue to play for the Saints but not even the lanky Dutchman has been able to stop the barrage of goals they have conceded this season. Southampton has only won one of their last five Premier League matches and one thing they have lacked this season is consistency. On Sunday, they were just a few minutes away from a famous victory against Arsenal before Olivier Giroud snatched a late draw for the London club and then to lose against Leicester City by 4-1 only points to their inconsistencies. Southampton has lined up predominantly in a 4-2-3-1 formation all season but Pellegrino the only exception so far was when he took his team to the Etihad to face run-away league leaders Man City late last month when he lined up with five across the back with Cedric Soares, Maya Yoshida, Virgil van Dirk, Wesley Hoedt and former Chelsea academy graduate Ryan Bertrand and it almost paid off with them being within seconds of snatching a draw before they were sucker-punched by Raheem Sterling with virtually the last kick of the game. He has since reverted back to type but he only two draws and a loss to show. Oriol Romeu has become a mainstay of this Southampton team and he got on the score sheet the last time he played at Stamford Bridge in their 2-4 loss in April. He's likely to be partnered in central midfield by one of Mario Lemina or Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg with the trio of Dusan Tadic, Nathan Redmond and Sofiane Boufal playing behind Charlie Austin in attack. Cedric Soares, Maya Yoshida, Virgil van Dirk and Ryan Bertrand should complete the line-up.
Possible Line-up:
Forster; Soares, Yoshida, van Dirk, Bertrand; Romeu, Hojbjerg; Redmond, Tadic, Boufal; Austin
Last Five Matches: LDDLW
Injuries: None
Key Battles
Alvaro Morata vs. Virgil van Dirk
If Alvaro Morata is fit enough to start this match then he will be facing his most physical battle yet. Van Dirk isn't a dirty defender but his physique is intimidating enough. Morata will have to stay on his feet longer if he's to have any joy against the Dutch 'giant'.
Cesc Fabregas vs. Oriol Romeu
Cesc Fabregas was rested for the match on Tuesday and so he'll be ready to face the festive fixtures but against his compatriot he sure to have a hell of a fight if he's to be his influential self tomorrow. Fabregas must also be aware defensively as Romeu has the knack to make late runs into the box especially during set plays. His goals at Stamford Bridge last season and against Manchester City came about just that way.
Andreas Christensen vs. Charlie Austin
Like Morata, Andreas Christensen will be coming up against his toughest opponent yet in Charlie Austin. The English striker is physical, fast and dangerous all in equal measure but if there's one defender in our current squad who can stand up to what Charlie Austin brings it's Christensen.
It's hard to know the Southampton team that will turn up at Stamford Bridge on Saturday but whichever one turn up Chelsea have got to put this game to bed as soon as possible to afford Antonio Conte the luxury of giving deserved rest to his star players like he did at the John Smith's Stadium with our Carabao Cup quarter final match against Bournemouth coming up on Wednesday. With both Manchester City and Manchester United having tricky assignments against Tottenham and West Brom respectively, a win against Southampton will turn the pressure up on both Manchester teams. Hopefully by the time you hear from me again, ahead of our match against Bournemouth, we'd have recorded our 12th league win of the season but until then be sure to Keep The Blue Flag Flying High.

How To Maintain Your Diesel Air Compressors
Like other equipment, maintenance of a diesel air compressors is vital to get the best execution. Since air compressors are utilized for some sorts of occupations, it's imperative that it be in a working condition without issues when it goes out in the area. Normal and finish upkeep checks will help keep some of these basic issues with the hardware.
Compressors that use diesel regularly give plentiful cautioning before stopping totally. They may run harsh or turn out to be much louder than common. A typical reason for this sort of looming disappointment is dampness found inside the compressor. While doing routine support, you ought to expel dampness that has consolidated into the inside of the compressor. Water that has shaped in fuel is an issue with gas engines. The same is genuine when the fuel is diesel.
If the diesel level gets low in light of the fact that a break has built up, the unit will soon stop running. A piece in the fuel framework will likewise bring about the disappointment of the unit or wasteful operation. Any hardware needs fuel to work, and the compressor unit is no special case. If you speculate a hole in the framework, search for proof of trickles underneath the unit. Swap terrible hoses and check for blockages to be expelled amid support.
A head gasket that has turned sour is another approach to wind up with a non-working diesel air compressor. A damaged head gasket will permit diesel to spill into different parts of the compressor. It ought to be supplanted before the harm is basic.
Filtration is a major a portion of keeping up a compressor unit. Diesel noticeable all around can have negative outcomes. The fuel ought to routinely be changed so that there is not the ideal opportunity for ooze to shape in the compressor. Filtration must be fruitful to shield the diesel from influencing the correct working for the compacted air. Changing the channel occasionally and verifying that it is perfect will protract the life of your compressor and make it run all the more effectively.
Making the diesel compressor work effectively is imperative when it is at work. Lost time because of breaking down hardware is never lovely, however when you are up against a due date, losing time because of the air compressor's inability to work could be exorbitant. Make a propensity for normal support of this and all gear utilized at work, and you won't risk dead hardware amidst a venture.

But some well-known faces in London's underworld are interested, too. James might regret taking this case…

Tourism boom in the East: is the transport infrastructure ready?
The country currently has around 14,800 hotel rooms. The SLTDA estimates that to cater to a growing tourism sector, an additional 40,000 rooms need to be built. Thousands of rooms in the East alone are to be built. With such goals for greater occupancy capacities, the pressures on the transport link from Colombo to the East become tighter. The key question then is , will the transport infrastructure grow in line with this boom in tourism that post-war Sri Lanka intends to achieve?

King County Sheriff's Office and Sammamish detectives have linked two men and one woman to possibly more than 30 cases in Seattle, Redmond, Mercer Island and other jurisdictions around the county, according to the Sheriff's Office. The cases go back to at least July. Deputies arrested the three Thursday on suspicion of possession of stolen property and identity theft after someone reported a suspicious vehicle in a parking lot at Marymoor Park. A Sammamish detective had developed probable cause for the arrest of occupants of a silver Kia Sedona van, and arriving deputies found that the was suspicious vehicle was the same van. On Friday, Sammamish detectives served a search warrant on the van and recovered evidence linking the three suspects to more car prowls and identity thefts, the sheriff's office said. Detectives served another search warrant Monday at a storage unit belonging to one of the suspects and found identification cards of several victims who reported that their cars had been broken into around Green Lake in May, September and October, according to the Seattle Police Department. Officials believe the suspects would break into cars, take valuables to resell, use ATMs to withdraw cash and buy gift cards until the victims' bank accounts were emptied. Detectives have recommended charges against each suspect in connection with four cases, with at least five more cases to be referred soon, the Sheriff's Office said. Seattle detectives are working with Sammamish detectives to link the suspects to several Seattle cases, including one highlighted in Danny Westneat's column in Sunday's Seattle Times. SPD is conducting a review of how it responds to property-crime reports. Comments | Topics: Danny Westneat, King County Sheriff's Office, Silver van

In today's College, we discussed the follow-up on the Euro Area Summit which took place last weekend.
At the Summit, Euro area leaders asked the Commission to work closely with the Greek authorities to successfully use more than €35 billion available from EU Funds to support job creation and economic growth in the country.
In this context, we presented this morning a Communication on a 'new start for jobs and growth in Greece'.
As you know, the Greek economy is back in recession, the banking system is on the verge of collapse and the Greek state is building up outstanding payments.
The economic problems in Greece are taking their toll with serious social consequences.
What Greece needs now is stability and confidence. Once financial stability is restored, the country can once again look towards economic recovery, job opportunities and a better future, particularly for the most vulnerable.
For this to happen, the Greek authorities need to:
- urgently reform the state and put in place an efficient and corruption-free administration,
- ensure social security systems that are sustainable and fair,
- create more attractive conditions for investment,
- ensure well-functioning labour, product and capital markets.
In other words: transform the economy and the state - making it modern, efficient and fair.
Swift implementation of these reforms is essential to rebuild confidence and trust among Eurozone 19 democracies.
Greece faces urgent financing needs. It has outstanding payments and arrears to the ECB and IMF that need to be paid in the coming days.
Euro Area leaders therefore invited the Eurogroup to address these issues as a matter of urgency.
Member States, together with the institutions, explored the options available. There are not many. Possible options have included increasing the T-bills ceiling, transferring SMP/ANFA profits, using the EU budget or bilateral loans.
Given the political, legal, financial and time constraints, there were two most realistic options left: bilateral loans and the programme from the European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism, or EFSM.
However, there are currently no prospects for any bilateral help.
Given the obvious absence of any other, better solution, the best possible avenue left is the EFSM programme.
The EFSM is a community instrument that can provide financial assistance in the form of loans to all 28 EU Member States - provided they implement an adjustment programme with strict conditionality.
This is why the Commission, responding to the request from the Greek authorities, has proposed to the Council to grant short-term emergency assistance, up to 3 months, from the EFSM and to build the bridge needed until the ESM programme is in place.
The EFSM loans would then be repaid with the money from the ESM disbursements.
This is not an easy option. We are aware of serious concerns of non-Euro area Member States.
We are therefore working on arrangements to protect non-Euro area Member States from any negative financial consequences, should the EFSM loans not be re-paid.
At the time when the ESM was put in place, the Heads of States and Government agreed not to use the EFSM. Therefore, some Member States have serious concerns. We also need to address this political difficulty.
This proposal will be discussed by all 28 EU Member States and the decision will be made by the Council of Ministers.
Today's Comminication sets out the substantial support available for Greece from the EU budget. It amounts to more than €35 billion until 2020. Corina will elaborate more in a moment.
Just to answer some questions: What is this money used for? And where will this money come from?
- €20 billion will come from the European Structural and Investment Funds
- A further €15 billion from the Common Agricultural Policy
- An additional €280 million is available for the most vulnerable
- And there is the Youth Guarantee and other forms of EU financing that are also available
If used to its full potential, and wisely targeted and well spent, this funding can pump investment directly into the real economy, creating jobs and raising the living standards of Greek people.
It will provide a powerful basis for an economic turnaround.
The Commission is also offering technical experts who have proven expertise in helping countries such as Greece to use EU funds wisely and implement important reforms ranging from building more efficient tax systems to tackling fraud and corruption.
In the past, such technical support has helped Greece to absorb EU funds better: in 2011, Greece ranked 18th out of 27 Member States in terms of use of EU Structural Funds. By the end of the last year, it had moved up to 6th place.
Lifting the uncertainty around the Greek economy and restoring financial stability are vital for re-launching growth and rebuilding investor confidence.
The full mobilisation of EU funds will catalyse the recovery.
We are here to support Greece in this process as it reforms its economy and gives hope to its people.
I now invite Corina to present the Communication in more detail.

Image: Currimundi Lake works earlier this year
Following recent large swells and wet weather, Sunshine Coast Council will carry out works this week to reinforce the foreshore area at Currimundi Lake.
Division 3 Cr Peter Cox said the works would see around 1000m3 of sand removed from inside the lake and placed on the beach to support the existing sand profile.
"In recent weeks we've seen weather and swell events eroding a 300 metre section of the beach between the lake and the ocean," Cr Cox said.
"Recent predictions from the Bureau of Meteorology suggest these conditions could continue throughout the coming months.
"Council will be undertaking these pre-emptive works over the next two days to ensure adjacent council assets are protected during the upcoming storm season, and to make sure everyone can enjoy this beautiful part of the coastline during our busiest time of year."
Staff and machinery, including an excavator and two trucks, will be used to move the sand, with works starting today and expected to be complete on Thursday.Beach access will remain open while the work is completed but exclusion zones will be in place around the work areas to ensure public safety.

The UK is pushing for phase one of the Brexit negotiations to be concluded at a meeting in Brussels in December – including the issue of how to operate the Northern Ireland/Ireland border.
But in an interview with The Observer on Sunday, Ireland's EU Commissioner warned Dublin would "continue to play tough to the end" over the issue as he called on Theresa May to keep Northern Ireland in the customs union in order to prevent a hard border.
International Trade Secretary Liam Fox doubled down on the UK's position, repeating that the UK would be leaving the single market and customs union after Brexit – but insisting there would be no hard border on the island of Ireland.
Fox added that it was impossible to fully solve the Irish border issue until the nature of the trade deal between the UK and the EU was completed – something which won't happen unless Ireland's government give the go ahead in December.
Speaking on Sky News, Fox said: "We can't get a final answer to the Irish question until we get an idea of the end state and until we get into discussions with the European Union on the end state that will be very difficult.
"The quicker that we can do that the better.
"We're still in the position where the European Union doesn't want to do that, and we're getting quite close now to 2018 when we'll be talking about 'next year when we leave the European Union' so for all the reasons, international as well as European, I think we have to get there faster than we're doing at the present time."
In his interview with the Observer, Ireland's EU Commissioner Phil Hogan said if the UK or Northern Ireland stayed in the Single Market or customs union it would solve the border issue instantly.
He said: "That's a very simple fact. I continue to be amazed at the blind faith that some in London place in theoretical future free trade agreements.
"First, the best possible FTA with the EU will fall far short of the benefits of being in the single market.
"This fact is simply not understood in the UK. Most real costs to cross-border business today are not tariffs – they are about standards, about customs procedures, about red tape.
"These are solved by the single market, but not in an FTA."
Any attempt to keep Northern Ireland in the customs union, and therefore effectively moving the UK border back to mainland Britain, would be strongly opposed by the DUP.
The pro-Union party wields enormous influence in Westminster as its 10 MPs prop up the Conservative government.
At the DUP's party conference in Belfast this weekend, its Westminster leader Nigel Dodds told activists: "Make no mistake - for us the integrity of the United Kingdom is non-negotiable."
He added: "If the EU wants to insist on border check points on the island of Ireland that is a matter for them. There will be no internal UK border in the Irish Sea.

The new Oracle online patching utility that comes with R12.2 looks like it can save a lot of down time by using 11GR2 and forward – Database Editions feature and three new file systems "run" / fs1, "patch" fs2 (can be switched), and fs_ne (fs_ne is for files not subject to patching usually).
There is also a "hotpatch=yes" switch, that applies you patch to all file systems and does not require all the standard adop phases – only "apply" is supported with the hotpatch=yes switch.
But, as all seasoned EBS R12.2 Admins know… hotpatch cannot be rolled back or aborted "adop phase=abort".
So you had better know for certain – when applying an EBS patch with the hotpatch=yes switch. Backing out of it may be difficult to impossible.
See Oracle Support Note: 2054074.1
It explicitly states "adop phase=abort" cannot be used on a hotpatch=yes session. But does allude to (assuming you have a replacement).
2. Apply a replacement patch with abandon=yes.
I did back out of one (hotpatch=yes) in an unsupported manner in a sandbox environment as follows:
sqlplus apps/pw
select adop_session_id, status from apps.ad_adop_sessions;
Important: select the correct ADOP_SESSION_ID
update apps.ad_adop_sessions set status='C' where adop_session_id=2;
Then update the status to "C" and commit – it allowed me to move forward – in an unsupported way in my sandbox environment – I wouldn't try it in production…
BTW – first time I applied a very large EBS patch set, and tried an abort, I had to add 30GB UNDO space to the 5GB that already existed before "phase=abort" would succeed…
Another BTW – here's the best "adop" summary blog I know of at the moment (nice job):

Canada is an extremely family-friendly country, and many families with small children cross the border on vacation every year. To make it easier, U.S. and Canadian citizens ages 15 or younger with parental consent are allowed to cross the borders at land and sea entry points with certified copies of their birth certificates rather than passports.
NEXUS Card
Visitors of all ages arriving in Canada by air require a passport or passport equivalent, such as a NEXUS card. Note that anyone who has a NEXUS card or is considering applying for one can apply for NEXUS cards for his or her own children at no cost.
Group Travel for Kids
U.S. and Canadian citizens ages 16 through 18 traveling between the U.S. and Canada with school, religious, cultural or athletic groups and under adult supervision will also be allowed to travel with only proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate.
Other Optional Documents
Children may require additional travel documents when visiting Canada. For example, if one parent is traveling to Canada with children but not the other parent, a signed document giving travel permission may be necessary. Divorced parents who share custody of their children should also carry the legal documents for their kids as well as contact information for the other parent. Other helpful documents include birth certificates, baptismal certificates, and immigration papers, if applicable. Border guards are especially diligent in keeping an eye out for unlawful border crossings involving children.
Visitors of all other nationalities, of all ages, need a valid passport to enter Canada by land, sea, and air. If you need a passport right away, get a passport within 24 hrs with Rushmypassport.com.
Best Advice
It's important not to wait to get the necessary documents. As security increases, it is helpful to have a passport or passport equivalent, like a NEXUS Card, for your child now. The trend for essential travel documents, even between friendly, neighboring countries like Canada, the U.S., and Mexico, is toward increased security and standardization. A passport—or passport equivalent—is becoming a must. Some people have FAST cards or Enhanced Driver's Licenses, but children are not allowed to carry such documents due to their age.
However, children can get U.S. Passport Cards, which are another alternative to a traditional passport.
Who to Consult
Consult the U.S. Department of State or Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA). Cruise ships, train lines, and bus companies will all have up-to-date information on passport requirements as well.

A Way of Love for Aspiring Non-stipendiary Priests. #GC79 A007 and #MeToo
I pause briefly from my studies in the history of the 1789 American Book of Common Prayer to read the latest dispatches from the Episcopal General Convention. How does The Way of Love that Presiding Bishop Curry spoke about, the Liturgy of Listening in response to #MeToo, and the work of the Committee on Ministry relate to me?
I became an Episcopalian over forty years ago back when I was in college but my relationship with the denomination has been a bit rocky over the past few years.
I had started college believing I was called to ministry and planned to major in religion, go to seminar, and become a preacher. I changed majors to philosophy, dropped out, and ended up working with computers. Yet that sense of calling never left no matter how hard I tried to ignore it or make up excuses about how it just wasn't feasible for me.
A few years ago during a guided meditation at a conference on poetry and worship at Yale Divinity School I had a strong sense of God telling me that my whole life has been about showing God love and that I really needed to answer God's call. So I started the process, only to be rejected by the Commission on Ministry. I was never told why and not given any support in dealing with this spiritual crisis.
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than it is for a college dropout in their fifties who needs to support a family to become a priest.
A few spiritual guides told me that I would not be happy until I went to seminary and taking their advice I searched around for a program that might work for me. I had taken an online continuing education course with Church Divinity School of the Pacific (CDSP) which I got a lot out of so I looked to see if they might be a fit for me. I decided to apply for their Online Certificate of Theological Studies program thinking it would be a good opportunity to see online seminary life was a fit for me.
After completing my first two semesters, I headed out to CDSP for a two-week summer intensive. The research I'm taking a break from is for one of those courses. I wandered the campus, met my classmates and professors, and was overwhelmed with joy. CDSP was exactly where I was meant to be. I put in my paperwork to change programs and am now officially part of the Low Residency Masters of Divinity Program. I am still not sure where it will lead, but sometimes it is more important to know you are in the right place heading in the right direction than to know where you are going.
One of my fellow seminarians who is at General Convention share a link to a blog post about the "Liturgy of Listening". I made sure to watch the livestream of the liturgy. It was incredibly powerful bringing up complicated reactions.
The wounds I carry from 'the process' are very different from the wounds we heard about in the liturgy and I want to be careful not to diminish in any way the stories of those hurt by sexual harassment, abuse, or exploitation, yet as I heard the stories, I thought to myself, "In my own way, #MeToo".
Another blog post, by the same author, And Then, Silence: Reflecting on the Liturgy of Listening gave me a way of thinking about this that was very helpful. My wounds from 'the process' and the wounds of many others that I've heard about over the past few years are not as bad as the wounds of sexual abuse. In this context, my wounds are "not too bad". Yet as the author writes, "Not too bad is a tragedy. We must be better than this." I hope and pray that the "Liturgy of Listening" will move the church forward in addressing issues of sexual harassment, abuse, and exploitation. I also hope that someday the church will address the issue of those who feel called the priesthood, especially to non-stipendiary or bi-vocational priesthood and don't see a way forward.
One way the church can address this is to seriously consider Resolution A007 Establish Committee to Study Relationship of Episcopal Seminaries with General Convention, One Another and the Wider Church. Objections to this resolution can be found in Deans Oppose Seminary Investigation
The Very Rev. Kurt Dunkle, dean and president of General Theological Seminary, said a top-down approach would not lead to good results. But he said the plan might have some promise if properly modified.
From my own experiences I can see problems with a top-down approach. Yet starting with a "Liturgy of Listening" to small parishes seeking non-stipendiary or bi-vocational priests and to people that feel called to such a ministry might be part of the modification that is needed.
The church does need to think more seriously and more creatively about how priests are called and formed in twenty-first century America, and Resolution A007 sounds like a very important starting point on our journey together on The Way of Love.

|Transit Map
(click to enlarge)
From the airport, by bus. From the airport, take bus 97 to the "Laurier" bus stop. From there it is a short walk to any of the conference hotels (see the area map above). To reach the Ramada Hotel, note that you have to cross the Canal - you should follow Laurier Ave across the bridge to Elgin, then turn left on Elgin and left again on Cooper.
The bus ride takes about 20 minutes. Buses run every 15 minutes during daytime. The fare is $2.50, and you should have exact change. You can find the #97 bus schedules here (careful if arriving on the weekend: click on "Saturday" or "Sunday" for weekend schedules). For your orientation, you can also consult the transitway map on the right.
From the train station, by bus. The instructions are the same as "from the airport", except that you take bus 95 from the train station to the "Laurier" bus stop. The ride takes only about 10 minutes. You can find the #95 bus schedules here.
By car. From highway 417 (Queensway), take exit 118 marked "Nicholas St". This will put you on the above area map. Parking in Ottawa can be difficult, so if your hotel does not offer parking, you might want to consider using a parking garage. The dormitories offer parking to guests at an additional charge.
