Methodology for deriving weighted ranges

All other variants have an adverse effect on the number of Member States within range, which in the unweighted baseline is 148.

(c) Changes to geographical distribution by application of the weighted system of ranges.

Variant 3w looks at the case with the membership factor at 100 per cent and both population and contribution factors at 0 per cent. Variant 4w considers the case with the contribution factor at 100 per cent and both membership and population factors at 0 per cent.

And, while weighted majorities can overrule it on some issues, everyone acknowledges that little can be done in the eurozone unless Germany agrees.

Different methods have been used to calculate the weighted ranges over the years.

Any difference in Member States' representation between the weighted and the non weighted systems of ranges is determined by the way the staff of any country is distributed over the different grades in the Professional and higher categories.

Finally, variant 5w places the dominant membership factor at 75 per cent, the population factor at 10 per cent and the contribution factor at 15 per cent.

C. Scenario III weighted ranges and posts within the context of the system of desirable ranges

Environmental campaigners, however, almost invariably see it as 100 0.

This weighted score is then multiplied by the area (in square millimeters) of the coronary calcification.

Indeed, German Chancellor Angela Merkel will face a serious dilemma following her likely re election.

The European Foundation for Quality Management analyses organizations according to a list of weighted enablers and results.

In case of an even distribution of staff of a Member State from the P 2 to the D 2 grade and beyond, the difference between the weighted and non weighted systems of ranges is minimal, and an application of the weighted system will not lead to changes in the representation status of that Member State.

The weighted midpoint in table 4 represents the sum of the weighted membership, population and contribution factors, and the weighted range is calculated as 15 per cent upwards and downwards (but not less than 415 points up and down (4.8 times 86.37), with the upper limit being not less than 1,209 points (14 times 86.37).

The parliamentary debate that has preceded the likely passage of this legislation revealed a classic case of an institution (marriage) coming into conflict with a cause (human rights). Both opponents and supporters of the bill concede that marriage has changed in various ways over time.

As at 30 June 2004, the weighted average value of each post was 86.37 points (233,219 divided by 2,700).

The trade weighted exchange rates (trade conversion factors), calculated separately for exports and imports, will continue to be applied by both organizations.

How this increasingly likely process unfolds will have enormous political and security consequences for the region. Will China accept a unified peninsula under a US ally?

As a result, Prodi has won a large margin in the lower house, but he has only a handful of extra votes in the Senate.

Projections for the period 2006 2015 are based on weighted annual growth rates for both regular and other resources as per the current MTSP.

Variant 1w considers all staff in the Professional and higher categories under the regular budget as having geographic status. Variant 2w considers all staff in the Professional and higher categories under the regular budget and extrabudgetary resources as having geographic status.

It will not be easy, and it will not allow time for complacency, given that the EU is most likely to remain in crisis mode for some time to come.

There are too few Tibetans, and too many Chinese.

The good news is that the answer for at least the next few years is that investors should worry about neither.

The application of the weighted system on the current population of staff in posts subject to geographical distribution as at 31 December 2004 indicates variations when compared with the baseline for the non weighted variant (variant 0).
