			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The world welcomes the U.S. agreement with relief. And sometimes with caution. France, through the voice of the Minister of Economy and the Baroin Budget Valérie Pécresse, on Monday welcomed the compromise that must still be voted in the Senate. &quot;This is great news for the world economies, a very good news for the United States but also for Europe,&quot; said the minister.</p>
<p> Baroin for its part related to the Europe Agreement on Greece on Thursday and compromise between Republicans and Democrats: &quot;All that has been implemented for two weeks three weeks, the agreement of the euro area on the issue Greek, the Washington agreement on the question of raising the ceiling of U.S. debt in the right direction. &quot;These agreements&quot; are going in the direction of the reinforcement of global growth, &quot;he said, and they will&quot; reaching consequences for global economy is recovering. &quot; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> With one of the highest birth rate in the European Union, the French threw every year a million diapers that end up buried or incinerated. Further pollution to which a pilot project, called &quot;Happy Nappy&quot; (&quot;happy coat&quot; in English), seeks to end. Conducted by SITA, a subsidiary of Suez Environnement, the program has evaluated the recyclability of liners for babies and adults. Conclusion: they can be recycled to 90%. </p>
<p> This program of 340,000 euros, 40% funded by the Agency for Environment and Energy Management (ADEME), spread over more than two years. After grinding the layers and their separate components, the program evaluated the energy recovery potential of each subject.Based on the work of the team, which make up plastics from 10 to 20% of the layers are recyclable, as are the fibers (10-20%) and feces and urine (50-70%). Only superabsorbent polymers (5-10%) remain unresolved recycling. Upon arrival, a &quot;triple value&quot; with energy production, compost and recycled materials. Research is being conducted in other countries but &quot;the idea of ​​the triple value is unique,&quot; says Laurent Galtier, project manager. </p>
<p> Final stage of the program: a solution to the residual organic matter from anaerobic digestion: they could be valued in agriculture. &quot;It remains to perform tests on the agricultural sector in line with the Ecole Nationale Superieure Agronomique de Toulouse (ENSAT),&quot; says Laurent Galtier.</p>
<p> &quot;In a nursery, the act of sorting is done&quot;
<p> How to collect, then the used diapers? &quot;Initially, we are interested in nurseries and nursing homes,&quot; said Laurent Galtier who visited both types of institutions and who claims to have met an &quot;immediate acceptance&quot; of his project. &quot;In the nursery, the act of sorting is done,&quot; says he: the babies are, in fact, changed in the same place and layer thrown into the same bin. </p>
<p> The recycling plant layers could settle near a water treatment plant, to use the treated water discharged by the station and to enjoy the digester already present. &quot;These are two very important points of synergy that could cause the project&#39;s success,&quot; said Laurent Galtier. </p>
<p> Concerned, diaper manufacturers have contacted the team.According to Laurent Galtier, a possible collaboration could include the development of plastic components and superabsorbent polymers. They &quot;could be a future pilot project,&quot; says Laurent Galtier elsewhere. </p>
<p> The economic viability of the project &quot;Happy Nappy&quot; will be evaluated by the end of the year. Its director, however, provides that there is &quot;no industrial process before 2013 at best.&quot; </p>

<p> They lied. This is a strange admission by Clement and Alec, the founders of La Chanson du Dimanche, the duo since 2007 Sunday night awakens the evil of Internet users in social and crazy song. Yes, they lied to their customers is a confession in the form of heartfelt cry that emerges from this interview. </p>
<p> Consultant bombed out of school, both graduates of the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Telecom are two mathematicians lost time in the land of recce missions and project management. It&#39;s hard to imagine a mission, wearing, clean-shaven, explaining to a client redesign of a master plan or the establishment of a new information system &#8230; Yet they did. </p>
<p> They retain a bittersweet feeling, a form of disenfranchisement that tells and sings with humor generation in their thirties they belong.On the one hand a job the temptation of food and the gentrification of bohemian and the other the desire to achieve otherwise. From this point of view, Alec and his anxiety to quit pretty much sums up the feeling of all those who want to move on but do not have the courage or the opportunity to go through. Clement has not experienced these feelings. It is the most relaxed of the two and gives math class today until the next season of the Song of Sunday. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Measures deemed insufficient. Farmers are almost unanimous in the result of measures announced by the Head of State yesterday in the Charente, including the provision of advances on compensation, exemptions from social contributions and deferred debt. </p>
<p> The President of the Republic &quot;leaves farmers in their thirst,&quot; said a statement from Rural Coordination. &quot;The agonizing question of farmers, as how to buy the additional food needed to feed a proper straw-based (for livestock), does not seem to touch the mind of Nicolas Sarkozy,&quot; regrets the union. Rural Coordination also reiterated his request for &quot;make available the farmers two million tonnes of cereals in 2011 is intended to produce biofuel.&quot;</p>
<p> Another minority union, the Confederation Paysanne, made the same request, and indicates in its brief statement that the announcements made by the president are &quot;insufficient&quot;. The union is also seeking the postponement of one year of all maturities of borrowings (2011 paid in 2012 and 2012 paid in 2013) and &quot;zero-interest loans offered by all banks to farmers to aid payments Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) October 15, 2011. </p>
<p> FNSEA satisfied, but relativized
<p> FNSEA, the main farmers&#39; union, is the only one to be satisfied with the measures announced by Nicolas Sarkozy yesterday, saying that the Head of State &quot;became aware of the situation&quot; of farmers and its urgency. Its president, Xavier Beulin, welcomed the &quot;emergency response&quot; proposed.He also welcomed the establishment of a five-year plan to create water reservoirs and reduced volumes of water used by agriculture. </p>
<p> However, the president of the FNSEA expects the figures for the consequences of drought, which should be known in early September. He estimates it will then probably look at more structural measures, and direct payments to certain farms. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> British phlegm is not what it was. Exasperated by American diplomats who refuse to pay the London congestion charge &quot;, the congestion charge in place since 2005 to move or to park in the capital, the conservative mayor of London, Boris Johnson, has decided to directly attack the President Barack Obama. </p>
<p> Taking advantage of his official visit this week in Britain, he decided &#8211; not happy with him claiming some 8.7 million euros in arrears &#8211; all cars of the procession would pay tax like everyone else. Starting with the Cadillac of Chief of the U.S. state, nicknamed &quot;the Beast&quot; by the Secret Service because of his size and armor that are, according to experts, a real tank on wheels.Transport for London, the agency responsible for managing the toll, which depends on the mayor, is trying to calculate the bill at the rate of 11.50 euros per day per vehicle. </p>
<p> The Pope, himself, had nothing to pay in September 2010 but says Boris Johnson in the Evening Standard, the roads were closed to other traffic, while this time, they were not . And beware of other heads of state who want to go to London! All diplomatic missions should in fact the tune of 59 million. </p>
<p> What partly explain the irritation of the elect, who has seen the end of March a half-million English between Westminster and Hyde Park to protest against cuts in the government. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Friday on its website, the group Indochina stated in a brief statement: &quot;Despite our numerous reminders, the Eating the Heart did not seem to want to accept the gift of our copyright / composer of the title 3rd Sex present in the album In the Eye of the Enfoirés. The latest installment of the troupe takes effect in two songs of the group, I asked the moon and 3rd Sex. </p>
<p> Nicola Dominique (ex Indochina) and Nicola Sirkis (singer / songwriter current group), assigns the third title Sex, logically had hoped that the revenue generated by exploitation of their titles are completely transferred to Eating the Heart. </p>
<p> Despite several phone calls and e-mails from the group and their label Sony, Eating the Heart never responded to this proposal.The two artists have decided to donate their full entitlements Secours Populaire. </p>
<p> &quot;We find it curious&quot; </p>
<p> The group is now wondering why Restless seem unwilling to accept their donation. &quot;We find it curious. I hope that authors and composers of other songs sung by Enfoirés so do we and pour their rights, &quot;says Nicola Sirkis at Figaro.fr. </p>
<p> The state since their inception Enfoirés donate all the money collected by record sales.But it should be noted that revenues are generated by distributing these songs on television or radio, and SACEM and SDRM, organizations distributions of copyright and reproduction of records, revertants also rights to authors and composers in the number of discs produced. </p>
<p> In the case of Indochina and Enfoirés SACEM will therefore have to distinguish the rights generated by the third song recorded by Gender and Indochina Enfoirés his version of how to distribute income. </p>
<p> Indochina will soon publish on its website the notarial deed certifying the repayment of these rights.EMI Publising, the publisher of the title did not always about him appeared. </p>
<p> Warned not to tracks for recording and 3rd-Sex </p>
<p> We are not asking the moon, the single from last album Enfoirés resumed I asked the moon in Indochina, is a song written by Michael Furnon group Mickey 3D, edited by Louise Attack Editions. Indochina therefore does not receive any rights to this title which, according to our calculations, could generate nearly 250,000 euros of copyright in the version Enfoirés. </p>
<p> Michael Nicola Sirkis Furnon warned of the psychosocial adjustment of this song for the Enfoires. However, no request was made to the group to obtain the right to record the third sex, which are compulsory. </p>
<p> &quot;The third version of Sex by Enfoirés (3, 45 min.) </p></p>

Alice has contributed positively to EBITDA of up to 83 million euros. </p>
<p> The group will propose a dividend of 0.40 euro per share for 2010, against 0.37 euros for 2009. </p>
<p> Outlook confirmed </p>
