			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> This morning, the Superior Audiovisual Council (CSA) summoned the three news channels continuously BFM TV, iTV and LCI for a wake-up call muscular. The subject? These chains have gone far beyond the time allowed the Socialist Party (PS) during the primaries. The rule of speaking time issued by the CSA requires TV stations to give the parliamentary opposition (PS), a talk time of 50% that of the majority bloc. Settlement takes place on three months of information for newspapers and magazines for six months of information. </p>
<p> However, the CSA noted that the period from 1 July to 30 September, the news channel did not respect this balance on newspapers for information.&quot;ITV has given the opposition parliamentary speaking time 146% higher than that of the majority, BFMTV gave 142% and 130% LCI! Unheard of at this level &quot;protests Christine Kelly, a member of the CSA in charge of the case. &quot;The time allowed to PS was significantly exceeded&quot; acknowledges CEO Guillaume Dubois BFMTV. &quot;We have given priority to the information. Now the case has raised the antenna DSK in July and August, the Senate elections and primaries PS mobilized in September. We invited representatives of the majority but they decided to be discreet &quot;defends Guillaume Dubois. &quot;It&#39;s not the fault of having warned&quot; Christine Kelly replies &quot;I have met for the first time in July and I have warned against a possible slip of the Senate and the primary&quot; </p>
<p> Tomorrow morning, the CSA will meet in plenary session.Constable Audiovisual could decide on a formal channels of information. &quot;It&#39;s a yellow card. But if they start, then the CSA will release a red card and take sanctions &quot;warns Christine Kelly </p>
<p> However, the CSA notes that most other television and radio all have fully complied with the instructions. On the side of France Televisions, which also broadcast the primaries in two news magazines, the balance was followed. Information for newspapers, counters ended September 30 show that the parliamentary opposition bloc has 51% of speaking time points Thierry Thuillier, the Director of Information of France Televisions.The new review period from 1 October to 31 December, France Televisions ensure balance time for the presidential majority, including calling Francois Fillon to 20 hours of JT France 2 tonight. </p>
<p> For news magazines, France Televisions has until Dec. 31 to offset the 4:45 discussion devoted to the primaries. Already Alain Juppe had been invited for two hours in the program &quot;The words and actions&quot; on September 30. Tonight, the program &quot;Crossword&quot; lasting 80 minutes will receive a majority of three personalities: Lionel Luca, Chantal Jouanno and Herve Morin. Finally, France Television is negotiating for an intervention of Nicolas Sarkozy on October 24.In this case, if the head of state talking about the crisis of the euro or Greek debt, his time is not counted, however if he talks about domestic policy, then the speaking time will be taken into account. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Globalization has a bad press these days. While the debt crisis has taken over from the 2008 financial crisis, many cities and regions rely on the relocation of the economy. They have to do this, decided to do without the euro by inventing their own currency. Latest initiative, that of Filettino, Italy, beating since late August, &quot;Fiorito&quot;. </p>
<p> This small town of 598 inhabitants located in the province of Frosinone in the center of the country declared independence in protest against the government&#39;s austerity plan which provides for the pooling of budgets of small towns under 1000 inhabitants. The new &quot;Principality&quot; issued 20,000 tickets to the effigy of the Mayor and has already set an exchange rate against the euro if it would carry out its threat of secession. The &quot;Fiorito&quot; would then 0.50 euro.</p>
<p> The idea of ​​an alternative currency to the euro or the dollar is not new. By 2003, Prien am Chiemsee, a common German Bavaria, has released the &quot;Chiemgauer.&quot; Notes 1,2,5, 10, 20 and 50 Chiemgauers have the same value as the euro and can be used in a network of retailers and businesses that have joined the project. Today there are 617 members. The phenomenon has become so widespread in Germany there are about sixty local currencies. </p>
<p> Development &quot;solidarity&quot;
<p> These alternative currencies have also landed in France. At the initiative of the Association for the living act, the Bee has appeared in the wallets of the people of Villeneuve-sur-Lot in the Lot-et-Garonne, in January 2010. In Toulouse, the Sol-Violette is intended as a &quot;currency ethics&quot;, which aims to promote &quot;economic solidarity&quot;.Finally, the South Ardeche has established its currency, the Firefly, in spring 2011 in order to &quot;pave the way for a greener economy of the human being and its environment.&quot; </p>
<p> Hints &quot;solidarity&quot; that is found throughout Europe, the hour or the debt crisis is spreading <a href="http://sublimebusinesscards.com">cheap business cards</a><!-- . -->. In Belgium, in the region of Hainaut, in Mons has launched the Ropi to &quot;relocate the economy, preparing for post-growth, and put the citizen at the heart of the debates and decisions, including finance and monetary issues. &quot; These concerns go far beyond European borders. In the United States in the region of the Berkshire (Massachusetts), associations were created in 2006 a parallel currency system, based on BerkShares. Today, more than 400 companies accept this money, and more than 2.7 million BerkShares are outstanding, redeemable at $ 1 against 0.95 BerkShares.</p>
<p> Closed circuit
<p> Faced with the popularity of these alternative currencies, the euro and the dollar they have to be worried? In a report published in 2007, the Deutsche Bundesbank, the German Central Bank, was already wondering if they could compete with the euro. According to the institution, the local currency in circulation in Germany then weighed the equivalent of 200,000 euros and their impact on the economy was &quot;negligible.&quot; Today, they account for 900,000 euros. </p>
<p> The Bank of France, meanwhile, said that the legal tender, as defined in the Monetary and Financial Code, is the fundamental principle of any form of payment. &quot;Traders are obliged to accept notes and coins are legal tender with this.&quot; Conversely, the release of a parallel currency is not prohibited, but it must be under an agreement between the different users.&quot;This currency is not exchangeable and circulates in a closed circuit,&quot; says the institution. Despite the snowball effect, the euro has probably nothing to fear from local currencies doomed to remain confidential. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Slowly, Orange out of the editing and production of audiovisual content. After the partial sale of the chain Orange Cinema Series concluded this summer with Canal + for the euro symbol, the operator now negotiating the end of the channel Orange Sport and pondered the future of Studio 37, subsidiary cinema. Between now and June 2012, the sports channel, which employs twenty employees and thirty intermittent, should close its service. </p>
<p> This date corresponds to the extinction of the major broadcast rights as the game Saturday night in the Championship of France of football, as well as the rights to broadcast Diamond League (athletics) and the African Cup of Nations. It will, however, the rights of the ATT 1000 tennis which runs until 2013 for 4 to 5 million euros per year.A difficult case to the extent that these rights are not transferable by Orange to another operator, unless you agree with the rights holders. Because contrary to what was hoped the staff group, the chain has not been sold. </p>
<p> The band&#39;s arrival in Qatar in French football this summer has raised hopes the acquisition of Orange Sport the cost grid is around 160 million euros. A base that would have allowed the al-Jazeera Sport channel to launch in France in January <a href="http://payday-nofax.com">no fax payday loan</a><!-- . -->. But Qatar has not responded. Similarly, negotiations with the American ESPN have fizzled. However, Orange Sport, whose loss is estimated at 150 million euros, should not weigh on the financial statements 2011 of France Telecom.The group had provisioned at December 2010 the cost of the shutdown of its two channels, up from 450 to 500 million, including $ 300 million for the sports channel. </p>
<p> Of critical success
<p> At the same time, Orange will lead a reflection on the future of Studio 37, subsidiary co-production film. Now deprived of the support of his movie channel and making low profile in the activity of the studio, its existence is justified less than in the past. Especially since, despite critical success as Welcome and Gainsbourg, or the heroic life of Fine guys, Studio 37 has had some setbacks as the Night kings of children, animated film on which it has invested 10 million euros &#8211; half of the production budget &#8211; to a resounding failure. </p>
<p> Orange is still given two years to find a growth in the studio and complementary activities before taking a more radical decision.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Pascal de Izaguirre, the new head of Nouvelles Frontieres, warned this summer that is socially necessary to revive the group, losing ground. Reportedly, the plan would cover about 400 positions. It should start in early 2012 and early departures would occur next summer. </p>
<p> On Thursday, during an extraordinary works council, which lasted all day, Pascal de Izaguirre had planned to give details of the plan. He did not last. &quot;The topic of the day was the proposed merger and any socially impossible before, says Le Figaro Jorge Partida, secretary of the EC and member of the FOR trade union, a majority. Pascal de Izaguirre wanted to give a figure for job cuts. At our request, he did not mention it.It was not on the agenda, we told him to observe the melting process. &quot; </p>
<p> The plan is part of a drastic turnaround strategy Nouvelles Frontieres, which should acknowledge this year the heaviest operating loss in its history. To restore the finances of the company, Pascal de Izaguirre upsets ever habits by bringing together under one roof all brands (New Frontiers, Marmara, Tourinter and adventurer), without removing either. By doing this, this former Air France, arrived first at the head of Corsairfly before returning in May orders for the whole group, wants to end the spirit of competition that may exist between Marmara and New Frontiers, and save money. </p>
<p> &#39;Strategic mistakes
<p> The new entity will be called TUI Travel France and centered around a renewed organization, lighter and cross.&quot;The project&quot; Convergence &quot;is never an objective of uniform or standardized offerings,&quot; insists Pascal de Izaguirre. </p>
<p> By grouping the teams, Pascal de Izaguirre wants to impose more rigorous management, and revive the &quot;spirit of conquest&quot;, which had the reputation of New Frontiers. &quot;This plan is the fourth since the early 2000s and the takeover by the German group Preussag, held at the time by Jacques Maillot, said Jean Serrat, a former captain in Corsairfly and former secretary of the EC until 2006. The previous plans were not enough to boost sales momentum because there were strategic errors (in the diversification of products, distribution &#8230;). For the first time, brings together teams of Marmara and New Frontiers.This is finally going in the direction of a cost rationalization was inevitable. &quot; </p>
<p> Pascal de Izaguirre wants to go fast. The implementation of the new operational structure of the company is scheduled for early 2012. He has no choice. In recent years, New Frontiers has lost market share that will be difficult to regain. Increasingly, too, is necessary in Internet travel sales, with the arrival of new competitors, starting with Google, which promises to shake up the industry with a brand new search engine for airline tickets. </p>
<p> Also new, the consumer, always on the lookout for bargains, it also has a growing tendency to move from one tour operator. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The speech of Jean-Claude Trichet, ECB president, did not like at all to investors.

<p> Genzyme, the biotechnology laboratory of the U.S. bought by the French group, was unable to deliver its drug Fabrazyme in August, although it promised to doctors and patients to meet this deadline.U.S. regulators have made public Wednesday letters from Genzyme dated August 26 and 25 where the laboratory apologizes to its customers and for people with Fabry disease, a rare genetic disease, for &quot;any confusion and disturbance &quot;caused by the delay. </p>
<p> • France Telecom: + 0.37% to 12.19 euros, Vivendi: -1.06% to 15.89 euros </p>
<p> The new tax passed by the government as part of the new austerity plan should give priority, penalize these two groups, according to Les Echos. France Telecom should be paid to these measures between 300 and 500 million. Vivendi would see him, his taxes increased from 250 to 400 million. </p>
<p> Next recommendation goes to Credit Suisse under-performance against neutral Ipsen (0.28% to 23.02 euros). Societe Generale goes with the purchase of Biomerieux (2.09% to 71.40 euros). </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Safran, currently listed on the SBF 120, will make its debut on the CAC 40 on 19 September. The industrial and technology group, owned 30% by the state and 16% by its employees, replaces the bank Natixis in the most important indicator of the Paris Bourse. The announcement of the decision of the scientific evidence that fell Friday night to enter into force on September 16 at closing. The CAC 40 has not seen changes since September 2010, when Dexia (bank) and Lagardère (media) had been replaced by Natixis and Publicis (advertising). </p>
<p> The case for an entry Safran are numerous. The group was first sold 6.5 million treasury shares on the market late in July to increase its free float to more than 50%. Or the size of free float is one of the most important criteria observed by the Board for an introduction to the Cac 40.Capitalization criteria equally crucial $ 11.6 billion. Finally, the performance of the title are not negligible. The stock has gained more than 14% since August 26, while the SBF 120 index has returned just 5.6%. Since the beginning of the year, it grew by 5.4% when the SBF 120 index lost more than 12%. &quot;There is a large consensus on this value. Safran is a great candidate, &quot;pointed out shortly before the decision Emmanuel Besson, manager at Equity Management Ofi AM. </p>
<p> Suez Environnement does not leave the Cac 40
<p> Suez Environnement was on the spot. The company, owned 35.8% by GDF-Suez and 7.2% by Groupe Bruxelles Lambert, certainly has a free float above 50% but its market capitalization of 5.88 billion, is among the lowest in the four Cac 40, with STMicroelectronics, Accor and Peugeot.In addition, the title was severely punished by investors: it shows a loss of 17.6% since the beginning of July, in line with the losses of the CAC (18% over the period). </p>
<p> But it Natixis, which has been designated to leave the Cac 40. It must be said that banking stocks have suffered heavily in recent weeks. The title is back in the index only a year ago and this decision &quot;could create additional pressure on the banking at a time when we seek to appease,&quot; said Emmanuel Besson. </p>
<p> Before the verdict, Safran fell by 2.77% to 27.05 euros at the close, in a market down 3.59%. In turn, Natixis lost 4.57% to 2.71 euros. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The bill may be steep Irene. The governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie, has evaluated this Sunday on the NBC television network damage caused by Hurricane &quot;billions of dollars, even tens of billions of dollars.&quot; According to an alternative estimate delivered by the consulting firm Kinetic analysis, the hardware cost of this storm is expected to rise between five and ten billion dollars, most likely around seven billion. Just to the North Carolina and South Carolina, two states already affected by the hurricane, the amount of losses expected to reach between 200 and 400 million. </p>
<p> Above all, this damage should be responsible in large measure to the State, businesses and individuals, when insurers should take on a lesser share of the burden, said Chuck Watson, one of the leaders of Kinetic Analysis told AFP.&quot;Most of the structural damage will be caused by the rising water because of rain and coastal flooding. Yet this type of damage is not covered by private insurance, &quot;said he.
<p> The same applies to losses caused by the cessation of activity in areas relevant to the coast, or the cost incurred by the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people <a href="http://instant-payday-loan-service.com">payday loan no faxing</a><!-- . -->. Thus, New York, usually hectic, has been transformed this weekend into a ghost town, most shops have closed up shop and residents have been urged to stay home. But there is no damage reported, insurance should not pay a dime to compensate their members. </p>
<p> Insurers expected to be down
<p> Insurance companies, however, should see their value fall Monday at the New York Stock Exchange.On Friday, insurers Allstate and Travelers had fallen to the lowest levels for two years, investors anticipate the costs incurred by the hurricane for those companies. </p>
<p> The amount of the invoice should still be less than initially estimated. Thus, Kinetic analysis was planned on Friday that a tornado could generate over 12 billion euros of damage if it hit New York at the height of its intensity. Finally, she was demoted to a mere tropical storm, with winds still 100 km / hour. These amounts are in any case of a different order of magnitude as the colossal damage of about $ 100 billion registered during Hurricane Katrina in 2005. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> From our correspondent in London </p>
<p> Despite a series of desperate measures taken last month to try to save the company, Southern Cross, the largest group of nursing homes in Britain, will have to end its activities. The company is in a position of near bankruptcy and will have to transfer all of the 752 homes it had to other management structures. Agreements are already being negotiated for a third of them. The listing of the group Southern Cross was suspended Monday for the London Stock Exchange. </p>
<p> An announcement has angered unions and associations for the protection of older people, worried about the future of 31,000 residents and 43,000 employees of the group.The bankruptcy of a private operator managed by investment funds of the City is also very bad news for the government to David Cameron, the reform of public health plans to provide a much greater role to the private sector. </p>
<p> Southern Cross tried last month to set up a restructuring plan which included the sale of hundreds of homes and the deferred payment of a quarter of rents for 752 homes, but these efforts have not been sufficient. </p>
<p> The magnitude of the crisis had forced the Prime Minister to take a stand last month. David Cameron was first started by saying that the state did not intervene in a private matter, but ended promise that he would do everything to ensure the situation of pensioners affected.A spokesman for Downing Street said Monday that no retiree &quot;does homeless&quot; because &quot;there are currently about 50,000 places in the country&quot; in nursing homes. </p>
<p> Reduced spending
<p> The fate of Southern Cross also challenges the rapid privatization of the medical sector and assistance for the elderly in Britain for twenty years, a trend initiated by the Conservatives but pursued by Tony Blair. More than two thirds of homes in the country, many of which provide a public service, are now managed by private companies. The quality of their service is also criticism since private retirement residence with seven scored &quot;poor&quot; or &quot;inadequate&quot; in the inspections, said the Financial Times. </p>
<p> The cause of the collapse of Southern Cross is quite simple.The group had signed leases with annual increases of 2.5% guarantees but finds himself in is at odds because its major customers, municipalities and communities, reduce average spending of welfare benefits by 10% year, due to the combined effects of losses due to bad investments during the financial crisis and the massive budget reduction plan launched by the government Cameron. </p>
<p> This is the unfortunate consequence of a strategy set up by Blackstone, the investment fund that took control of the group in 2004. The fund wanted to increase the financial profitability of the group by selling its stock of homes, at a time when the UK property market was in a bubble. </p>
