"He alone is a true Christian whose soul and mind has entered again into the original matrix, out of which the life of man has taken its origin; that is to say, the eternal Word (λογος). This Word has been revealed in our human nature, which is blind to the presence of God, and he who absorbs this Word with his hungry soul and thereby returns to the original spiritual state in which humanity took its origin, his soul will become a temple of divine love, wherein the Father receives His beloved Son. In him will reside the Holy Ghost. He alone, therefore, in whom Christ exists and lives is a Christian, a man in whom Christ has been raised out of the wasted flesh of Adam. He will be an heir of Christ—not on account of some merit gained by someone else, nor by some favour conferred upon him by some external power, but by inward grace." (Jacob Boehme)
The letter isn't the Word and can't be the Word. The letter has no powers by itself. Only the Word can birth the new man and enlighten him. That word is alive and expanding and finds its expression only through that man who has received it in his soul and spirit. The letter can merely point to the living Word, but can be grasped neither by reason nor the natural mind. Man can study the letter, that is, the scriptures his entire life and still be in ignorance unless the living Word; Christ, is birthed in him and opens up the letter to him. The letter by itself can't but speak law. Hence Paul says the letter kills. It is the Spirit who gives life and thus makes man able minister of the new covenant in freedom and not under law.
Left to itself the letter appeals to the flesh, thus it is said: But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. And further: Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. The Spirit, however, appeals to spirit, and by that God's promise stands fast: All His children shall be taught by God. John expounds on this tremendous fact when he by the Spirit offers the following testimony: But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things. By God's inward grace every child is taught.

text: marcosimonvfx 0 Posted June 18, 2018 Hi, The title says it all - it seems like it should be a very simple thing (or widely used at least) and yet after two evenings of trying and failing and googeling I'm nowhere closer to a solution. I want to bake the indirect illumination of a scene into a texture - which later I want to add to the diffuse channel to save some rendering time and cut the diffuse bounces. The Houdini help mentions baking indirect illumination, but in the "bake Texture" node there are no options on number of bounces like I have in a normal Mantra. I never see the effects in the generated map - there's only the direct lights - and when I extract just the indirect channel it's always pitch black. I tried using a gilight - but that also doesn't seem to work. I can use it fine rendering with a normal mantra (there I see it's effects with using a prerendered photon map that I load) but it has no effect on the baked texture. Any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Marco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'Cordless' Dyson fan advert falls foul of watchdog
An advert for one of Dyson's £400 fans has been labelled misleading by the Advertising Standards Authority. The video, for the company's Pure Hot and Cool Fan, suggests the fan is cordless when it actually needs to be plugged in, it said. Dyson told the ASA it did not think there was "Any reasonable prospect" of consumers thinking a tower fan or purifier could be cordless. Dyson had argued that its fans had been on the market for more than a decade. It told Dyson in future not to imply that their fans were cordless unless they actually were.

Chanachai CP Freshmart (5-0, 2) Vs Dexter Alimento (9-0, 6)
We love watching youngsters slug it out in Thailand. In fact two of our favourite bouts last year saw young fighters making a name for themselves on the road in Thailand, where Both Diago Higa and Iwan Zoda broke out as stars. Sadly tragedy can strike, as it did when Chanachai CP Freshmart [ชนะชัย ซีพีเฟรชมาร์ท] fought Filipino Dexter Alimento.
Warning-Scenes at the end of this fight are disturbing.
Chanachai CP Freshmart Vs Unknown
November 24th 2015-Chonburi, Thailand
Chanachai CP Freshmart (4-0, 2) Vs Unknown
Thailand has a lot of exciting lighter weight fighters, one of whom is Chanachai CP Freshmart who has really caught our attention in recent bouts. The unbeaten youngster was in action this past week as he took on an unknown opponent, originally thought to be Indonesian fighter Silem Serang though appears to be a Thai fighting from the Pakdee stable.
June 2nd 2015- Ramintra , Bangkok, Thailand
Chanachai CP Freshmart (3-0, 2) Vs Lester Abutan (7-2-3, 4)
Earlier this year Thailand's promising Chanachai CP Freshmart caught our eye as he took on experienced Filipino Wilber Andogan. Today we saw him take another Filipino, Lester Abutan, and again we were really impressed by the exciting Thai who showed plenty of traits that we really like to see in a young fighter.

David Evans
Oxford Mediation Steering Committee Member
ADR Chambers accredited mediator
Mediation Experience
David Evans started mediating in 1999. He trained with ADR Chambers and was accredited as a civil and commercial mediator in 2005.
David is an experienced mediator and "safe pair of hands". His mediation practice is wide ranging and covers most types of civil and commercial disputes. He is a founder member of Oxford Mediation.
"Evans is an experienced … solicitor, who has developed a highly regarded mediation practice …" (Chambers UK, A Client's Guide to the Legal Profession)
"… an excellent mediator" (Legal 500)
Alternative Dispute Resolution
David usually works as a "facilitative" mediator, when mediating in civil and commercial disputes. However, he also accepts appointments both as an "evaluative" mediator, and as an "evaluator" in early neutral adjudication.
Mediation in commercial disputes is most often "facilitative" mediation, where mediators won't express their own opinion of the rights and wrongs of the dispute. The mediator is neutral, facilitating negotiations between the parties.
Where "evaluative" mediation is agreed by the parties, the mediator's primary role is still to facilitate negotiations. The mediator remains neutral and doesn't decide anything. But where the parties agree, and if appropriate in negotiations, the mediator may express a view about the issues in dispute to the parties. Sometimes that may be enough to help the parties reach agreement when negotiations have got stuck.
Alternatively, early neutral evaluation might be appropriate if the parties in dispute want an independent neutral to give them an opinion about the merits of their dispute. The evaluator's opinion is non-binding and the process remains confidential between the parties and "without prejudice". Early neutral evaluation gives the parties a reasoned opinion which allows them to take stock and assess commercial risks. The process should be relatively low cost. Even high value disputes can be resolved where the parties want an independent assessment of their positions and want to avoid costly disputes.
Professional Experience
David has worked in the construction industry for most of his career. He is a chartered civil engineer, solicitor and Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, having trained as both an arbitrator and adjudicator. He has a degree in civil engineering and master's degree in construction management.
He worked as a civil engineer for 17 years. Since 1997 David has practiced as a commercial litigator and construction lawyer. He has practised as a mediator since 2005.
David's experience makes him a popular choice as mediator in construction, engineering, property development or planning disputes. However much of his mediation experience is in general commercial dispute resolution.
David has taken on all manner of disputes, some involving substantial claims and several parties, including disputes over:
- IT systems' performance;
- commercial contracts;
- company / shareholder / partnership agreements;
- franchise / agency agreements;
- mechanical and electrical engineering;
- professional negligence;
- property disputes;
- construction contracts, interim / final accounts, damages and extensions of time:
- defective products / materials specification / product supply;
- planning.
David also offers training and lectures on mediation, alternative dispute resolution and construction law.

The Alaska Gasline Development Corp. has told federal regulators that it plans to start building construction camps and access roads at the natural gas liquefaction plant site in Nikiski in the first quarter of 2020 and along the 807-mile pipeline route by the second quarter.
The state-led project's latest timeline still shows first liquefied gas production by fall 2024.
Sticking to that schedule assumes the state corporation can sign LNG customers to binding long-term contracts, complete the deals to buy gas from North Slope producers, find investors and financing for the estimated $43 billion project, acquire the rights to about 900 acres of land in Nikiski, secure any state legislative approvals that may be needed, work through all the required federal and state regulatory authorizations, and reach terms with contractors and suppliers for one of the most expensive energy projects in U.S. history.
LNG developments proposed along the U.S. Gulf Coast, in Canada and elsewhere in the world face many of the same issues.
AGDC has been talking for the past year with Chinese interests about taking 75 percent of the Alaska project's LNG capacity while financing 75 percent of development costs. No firm deals have been announced.
The project's latest schedule presented to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Nov. 6 also says work would start in early 2019 on relocation of a few miles of state highway in Nikiski to make way for the gas liquefaction plant and marine terminal.
However, the state corporation leading the North Slope natural gas project lacks funding to buy land for the highway relocation or to contract for its construction.
AGDC's work schedule presented to FERC is not binding; it's the corporation's best estimate of what it wants to accomplish. Federal regulators on Oct. 2 asked for an updated project timeline to include in the draft environmental impact statement, or EIS, which is due for release in February 2019.
But unless the Legislature appropriates additional state money or the corporation raises funds from other sources, the project could run out of funding by the end of calendar year 2019, about the same time FERC is scheduled to release its final EIS in November 2019, according to a spending plan prepared for the AGDC board's Nov. 8 meeting.
As such, the corporation is planning to approach potential investors in late 2018 or early 2019, according to a report at the board's Oct. 11 meeting.
The presentation for investors "will outline equity offer terms, methods of investment and commercial structuring," according to the information given to the board.
The corporation plans to spend between $3 million and $4 million per month in the current fiscal year that ends June 30, 2019.
The project schedule submitted to FERC on Nov. 6 assumes the commission issues its authorization for construction by February 2020 — within the 90-day deadline after the final EIS.
"The forecasted schedule for both the draft and final EIS is based on AGDC providing complete and timely responses to this and any future data requests," FERC reminded the project team Oct. 2 when regulators presented the state with 63 pages of information requests. The potential for any new information requests will depend, commission staff told AGDC representatives at an Oct. 18 meeting, on whether the corporation's information is complete or prompts follow-up questions.
If AGDC and its partners move quickly to a final investment decision after receiving FERC authorization, the project schedule calls for site preparation to begin in early 2020 at the LNG terminal and later that year along the pipeline route. Sealifts of large production modules aboard barges to the North Slope would start in 2023.
The state project team on Nov. 6 provided FERC with some of the additional information requested last month, as AGDC nears the end of submitting data needed for the draft EIS. The latest information included:
• A list of 34 potential sites where four rock crushers would be set up and moved as needed to provide material during pipeline construction, operating 24 hours a day between eight and 49 days at each site.
• The location, acreage, number of crew beds and duration of use for the 29 pioneer work camps that would be set up for initial site prep and access road construction along the pipeline route. Each camp would cover about four acres, with accommodations for 120 workers, with the first camps going in by the second quarter of 2020.
AGDC plans to submit by Nov. 19 the final batch of information requested last month by FERC, including:
• Additional details on construction plans to lay concrete-coated pipe across 29 miles of the seafloor from the west side of Cook Inlet to Nikiski.
• Further information on potential impacts on permafrost during and after construction.
• Additional geotechnical and geophysical studies of the feasibility of trenchless pipeline crossings at specific waterways.

Holiday weekends typically see hundreds of thousands of motorists crowd onto roads across the country — and into fuel stations, where petrol prices tend to rise.
Fuelled by profit: People going away for the Australia Day long weekend may notice petrol prices increase, says Dr De Mello.
But why don't prices seem to reflect movements in the cost of crude oil? And how do you pick the cheapest place to fill up?
The global benchmark, Brent Crude Oil price is currently at USD $62 per barrel, after peaking at USD $85 per barrel around October last year. After renewed sanctions against Iran took effect in November and with relations between North and South Korea improving, prices are staying low for now, says Dr Lurion De Mello.
"The good news is that while there will be a bit of price fluctuation, especially around a long weekend, currently we are in a low price environment so motorists shouldn't be worried at all about high fuel prices."
There are many other local factors that affect price fluctuations and are totally out of consumers' control
Petrol analysts call the phenomenon the 'rocket and feather' approach. "Petrol prices shoot up like a rocket when crude oil prices increase and that's because retailers worry that their margins are going to suffer," says Dr De Mello.
But prices come down slowly — like a feather — when crude oil prices drop. "Retailers are trying to buffer themselves from other prices changes," he explains.
Fuel prices are also affected by fluctuations in currency markets and specifically the Australian dollar exchange rate. Since BP, Caltex and Shell shut down local refineries, Australia depends on refineries in Singapore, Malaysia and South Korea.
In Australia, petrol prices are made up of 50 per cent of the cost of the petrol and import costs, 35 per cent Australian government tax and a margin for the retailer — which is affected by competition — of about 15 per cent, Dr De Mello says.
He recommends motorists in NSW use the government's fuelcheck.nsw.gov.au app which tells you where the cheapest petrol is available near you. "Not many people know about it but I use it all the time and it's really effective," he says.
There are many other local factors that affect price fluctuations and are totally out of consumers' control. Retailers have several strategies to attract customers, other than just petrol, Dr De Mello says. People buy where they can get more Frequent Flyer points; others for services such as mini-marts or car washes.
"In some affluent suburbs such as Mosman, Manly or the Eastern suburbs, retailers can keep their prices high and consumers are not price sensitive," he says. "They are what we call in economics 'price inelastic', the petrol station is conveniently located and they'll keep on buying from them no matter what."
Dr De Mello says that more research needs to be done on how some petrol stations, especially independent retailers, can continue to keep their prices down and still survive.
Dr Lurion De Mello is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Applied Finance at Macquarie University.

Good almost noon on this Wednesday! Aren't you glad that Jesus never leaves nor forsakes us? I can get to Sidney before the storm, but if my password memory forsakes me, then I cannot sign in to my GMail to send out the devotional. I made it safely home, and my password memory was better than I give it credit for, but not good enough.
We live in a world where close, in many cases, does not make the standard. A computer password cannot be close, you must have every character correct. Almost remembering the thing does not allow access. Aren't you glad that Jesus has already acknowledged that not one of us will make God's standard and saved us Himself? We are not almost up to snuff by God's standard; all of us are sinners. In the final judgment, no one will be met with a sentence of "Darn, you almost made it." Without the intervention of Jesus, we are all out of the running for eternal life in Heaven.
With the saving grace of Christ, we live in a different state. I don't have to remember a certain number of Bible verses in the correct order to pass the pearly gates. You don't have to pile up a certain tally of good works to get past Heaven's nominating committee. We believe in Jesus, and we are in. Simple and straightforward. The only complication is our desire to make the grade by our own merit. My password creativity may easily surpass my memory recall-ability. If that prevented me from accessing Heaven, I would be doomed. However, Jesus holds the pass to access Heaven, I don't have to worry about forgetting, and no one should worry over not qualifying.Whoee, now to warm up the outside of me! Cold...

Most of us have heard about what happens when estrogen levels decrease after menopause in women. For example, women have an increased risk of developing osteoporosis and bone fractures as a result, and low estrogen levels can also cause hot flashes, night sweats, heart palpitations, headaches, and insomnia. But many might not know the link between menopause and muscles.
Estrogen and Our Muscles
We know that menopause is associated with a decline in estrogen, and that creates a decrease in muscle mass and strength. Low physical activity and low protein in the diet contribute to sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass) and the loss of strength after menopause too.
A new study published in Cell Reports shows how estrogen levels play a key role in muscle function, maintenance and as a result, overall strength. The researchers found that the loss of estrogen leads to a 30 to 60 percent drop in muscle stem cell numbers across five different muscles. Muscle stem cells are also known as "satellite cells". These cells are usually in a dormant stage until they are called upon to help repair an "injury" when a muscle fiber is stressed, say, during weight lifting. The new study shows that the loss of estradiol (a well-known female sex hormone produced by the ovaries) has a negative effect on our very important satellite cells.
This is especially relevant in a strength-training program, as muscle "injury" or stress is what happens when we lift weights. Building strength is our body's response to that stress or "injury." We now know that how muscles rebuild themselves could be compromised in women after menopause.
It's something to be aware of when we feel like we are doing the same amount of work without the same result after menopause.
Hormones and Muscle Recovery
As we age, estradiol decreases and that having less of that hormone "reduces skeletal muscles mass and force generation in women," according to the study summary. This study proves that hormones help in "overall muscle regenerative capacity" also known as recovery. So now we see how estradiol is essential, too, for recovery because of its role in muscle stem cell maintenance and function.
An Alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy
It has long been known that estrogen replacement therapy can help maintain muscle health. But for those who are afraid of increased cancer risks due to hormone replacement therapy (HRT), the researchers also showed that a new class of drug could interact with estrogen receptors and create the same outcome as estradiol in preventing the muscle stem cell decline after menopause.
Before this research study, the majority of studies focused on men, comparing muscle from old men to young men. But in this research study, they studied the satellite cells in women during the transition of menopause, taking biopsies from the same women at peri- and post-menopause. Finally, research that helps us understand how menopause affects muscle strength.
The study in Cell Reports was published by authors Down Lowe, PhD, Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Division of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science Graduate Program, University of Minnesota Medical School and Michael Kyba, PhD, Professor of Pediatrics and Carrie Ramey/CCRF Endowed Professor in Pediatric Cancer Research, Department of Pediatrics, Division of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, University of Minnesota Medical School.

Despite the serious security failures that have led to the theft of banking information from more than 40,000 credit cards, OnePlus's creations have gained interest over time. The OnePlus 5T is the last example, but in less than five months there will be a successor. And how will that model be? The following images show us what could be considered the design of the OnePlus 6.
Anyway, so far OnePlus has managed to win over the public with cheap smartphones. Although the price factor has been decreasing as a reason for purchase, even so, OnePlus smartphones generate great expectation. If the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T have already done so during the past year, the main protagonist for this 2018 is the supposed OnePlus 6. And how will the future flagship of the Chinese company be?
Design of the OnePlus 6 in images
According to the iGeekPhone portal, which shows a series of images in which the supposed design of the OnePlus 6 appears, the imminent model will offer a more attractive look than the current OnePlus 5T thanks to the optimization of the edges of the screen. At least that is what the photos offered by the consulted source show. Although we do not know its origin and reliability, we can let ourselves be carried away and analyze the aesthetic features of the model they propose.
The truth is that there are many ballots for the design of the OnePlus 6 to approach or correspond to the one displayed in the images. As we have already said, the most outstanding feature is a larger space occupied by the screen, of six inches and 2K resolution.
As for the back, we would see the fingerprint sensor built into the case, as well as a double rear camera with 20-megapixel sensors. As for the front camera, it also aims at the 16-megapixel sensor, as in the OnePlus 5T.
Some of the features of the OnePlus 6
According to the information we know from the CEO of OnePlus, the OnePlus 6 will arrive sometime in the middle of 2018, in June. Among the features of OnePlus 6 that can be confirmed, we have the processor. Everything points to the OnePlus standard bearer returning to equip the most powerful SoC of the moment, in this case, the future Qualcomm Snapdragon 845.
On the other hand, the source points out that the memory options will be all with 8 GB of RAM and differentiated by the internal memory of 64, 128 and 256 GB.
Regarding the price, it is still early to confirm, but the source speculates with a further increase, which would place the most economical model in the orbit of 550 dollars and 690 dollars the most expensive.

structure 2/2015
In high-rise construction, the engineer Bill Baker's innovative structural engineering concept for the Burj Khalifa in Dubai opened up an entire new dimension. In his background article he shows that designing tall buildings can be both simple and complex. A tower, however tall it is, remains a vertical cantilever, and as such a statically determinate system. On the other hand, it can be very demanding to design a suitable structure for that purpose.
An exceptional feat of engineering was also required for the nearly one and a half kilometres long, doubly curved highway bridge in Sundsvall in Sweden, where the bridge elegantly spans across the bay. It also required a very strong performance from the involved firms in terms of construction technology and logistics – not only due to the tight schedule, but also because none of the steel components, prefabricated in southern Germany and weighing up to 100 tons, have the exact same shape.
In contrast, the new subway stations Szent Gellért tér and Fővám tér with their high design quality are located deeply underground. Here, we illustrate the related architecture and structural design as well as the construction processes, based on the cut-and-cover method. The further projects presented in this issue complement the broad range of structures. As diverse as the featured examples are, aside from their exciting structural solutions and construction processes they share high demands in terms of architectural design. Thus, they represent the basic idea of DETAIL structure: the successful interplay between design, structure, and construction.

If someone told me that I would have a reason to bring up the names of Pope Francis and Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy in the same sentence, I would have highly doubted it. But, here it is.
A NY Times editorials article, "Justice Kennedy on Solitary Confinement", talks about Justice Kennedy addressing "what has become one of his most pressing concerns: America's broken criminal justice system in general, and prolonged solitary confinement in particular." Making his point, Justice Kennedy quotes the Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky: "The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons."
A few years ago, Pope Francis surprised many of us by bringing up the name of Dostoyevsky, as well. In an interview, the Pope claimed him as his favorite writer. After all, that shouldn't be a big surprise, considering the issues of justice and morality, which are central themes of Dostoyevsky's writings. In his famous novel, The Brothers Karamazov, one of the characters says that the whole world is not worth saving if the price is one tear of an innocent child. At this point, I urge you to check out the Art Talk website to see the photos by Richard Ross accompanying my program -- the photos depicting children incarcerated in American juvenile detention facilities.
Distinguished Professor of Art at UC Santa Barbara, Richard Ross published in recent years two important photography books relevant to this subject -- in 2012, Juvenile in Justice, and then a follow-up in 2015, Girls in Justice. Be warned, some of these images can break your heart.
Ross was able to gain access to various American juvenile detention facilities, where kids as young as 10 are being incarcerated for an unreasonably long period of time -- sometimes even in isolation. Part of the deal with detention authorities was that the kids' faces in these photographs should be blurred or not seen at all. Still, their body language and the way Ross composed his images speak loudly about the emotional devastation of this experience.
These images walk a fine line between documentary and an artistic statement, without diminishing the power of either. As a result, we are compelled to look at them, and to look at them again, paying attention to every detail, trying to comprehend what is going on with these kids. I wonder what Pope Francis and Justice Kennedy would have to say about these photos.
I've heard Richard Ross passionately debating this issue with the theater director and UCLA Professor Peter Sellars twice -- last year, in a UCLA auditorium, and recently at The Hammer Museum. But, that is not enough. It's time to see these powerful photographs in a well-organized exhibition here, in one of Southern California's museums.

The EQUILIBRATOR® Passive Diffusion Sampler (PDS or PDB) is the world-wide number one passive groundwater sampler.
Diffusion samplers obtain representative, discrete interval samples of Volatile Organic Compounds in groundwater without purging or pumping. Effective for any site where VOCs are the main contaminant of concern.
Prefilled Equilibrator PDBs: For the easiest and most convenient installation, order prefilled samplers so they arrive on-site filled with certified de-ionized (DI) water, ready to install. Certificate of Analysis (COA) available for each DI water lot And,we've simplified the order process so that each size of prefilled Equilibrator now has it's own item order number, which includes the filling service.
De-ionized Water Travel Blanks: EON provides a separate and inexpensive water "Travel Blank" of the exact same DI water and membrane used in the prefilled sampler so you can validate the pre-installation contents without sacrificing a sampler.
Fill Your Own Equilibrator PDBs: Order the unfilled Equilibrator PDBs and fill them with de-ionized water, on site, in your office or any other convenient place, using water from your lab or get bottled de-ionized water from EON.
How Easy Is It? Attach the PDB filled with DI water to a suspension tether using zip-ties and lower into the saturated zone in the well screen. While installed, VOC molecules from the water in the well diffuse through the semi-permeable sampler membrane until the VOC concentrations in the sampler are in equilibrium with the surrounding groundwater.The sampler contents maintain equilibration with the surrounding groundwater even when the groundwater concentrations change. Recover the Equilibrator at the next sampling event and install another sampler for the next round. No need to go back to the well just for recovery and there is virtually no maximum time between installation and recovery.
EON's Equilibrator Passive Diffusion Sampler can be used for surface water too!

Fears that the new head of the European Commission, Michel Barnier, may take a lighter approach to maintaining the free passage of goods and services between member nations were assuaged this week when the new Internal Market Commissioner addressed the European Parliament.
The European Gaming and Betting Association, a trade body that represents the views of most of Europe's leading online gambling companies, welcomed Barnier's commitment to address the situation of gaming and betting at EU level.
Speaking to members of the European Parliament, Barnier confirmed that the analysis of the Commission Legal Service regarding the most recent European Court of Justice ruling (Santa Casa, C-42/09) does not change fundamentally the Commission's approach towards infringement procedures.
The Commissioner said that the Santa Casa ruling of 8 September 2009 was based on considerations specific to Portugal and to its national monopoly operator. The Commission will therefore continue to examine the compliance of national legislation with EU law on a case-by-case basis.
Sigrid Ligné, Secretary General of the EGBA, said: "With several Member States currently reforming their gaming and betting legislation, this is an important confirmation that the Commission will not stand by while Member States introduce restrictions that go against fundamental principles of the EU.
"We believe that the respect of Internal Market rules in our sector will promote high standards and improve the protection of players throughout the EU".
EGBA has also expressed its strong support for the Commissioner's plan to engage in a broad consultation with stakeholders and to work on a political document, based on reliable figures and a clear diagnosis of the situation in Europe.
The Commissioner raised the prospect of a Green Paper on gambling, a move which EGBA believes could offer a real opportunity to test the interest and support of the European Parliament and Member States for future EU harmonisation in the sector.
