Formula 1 Bottom Less
THE REAL ISSUE IS NOT POLITICAL MORAL
by Gerard Bissainthe
My dear Raoul,
Other times, other countries, other media, other customs.
You belong with me that you like it or not, "elite" of the country and not the "MASS".
Our ELITE has been shocked that an artist exposed naked in public, but apparently not GND, as it has not protested.
MASS The United States (even in the ELITE) being more puritanical, usually at least in public, would not have accepted this spectacle of an artist who shows himself naked in public . But if it happened in this country where everything is forgiven to a repentant, he apologized to the public and would have made a new virginity. We saw the United States of former prostitutes or former madams become mayors of their cities.
Moreover, in France today, the current First Lady is known to have in the past posed for cameras in place of Eve, and pictures can be seen on the internet are proof. Many artists, not least in this country show their ass on TV who wants to see them. It does not please you, me neither. But apparently that does not hinder the policy of this country where Good Samaritans publicly and proudly take the name "motherfuckers". And the past of his wife apparently nothing impedes the career of the current French Head of State. Other times, other countries, different backgrounds, different values.
The bottom elsewhere. The real challenge of the March 20 poll, what are moral values: a choice between a provocative artist who has arrived in the heat of the action during his career in public let down her panties and a conservative university, respectful of the public morals, which boasts, also, to wear a panty steel. The challenge is well above the belt. And it is in relation to this real issue that I have taken a stand and that I think everyone should take a stand.
The issue is really at stake in these three goals I have spoken:
1 .- The return of Indigenous Army NOW
2 .- Acceptance of the single-nationality composition territorial (= acceptance of multiple nationality) NOW
3 .- The administrative decentralization NOW
NOW is an English word that means in Creole: " san tèt grata."
It is against these three objectives I opted for Camp Martelly. And it depends on three crucial issues that everyone should decide which of the two candidates can achieve them more easily. In a future article I will elaborate on the ability of each of these two candidates to achieve these three objectives.

Does Jcpenneydo Eyebrow Threading
The Group of 12 cracks
| The divergent positions within the former presidential candidate of the "Group of 12". As for the possibility of endorsing the nomination of Michael J. Martelly Mirlande or that of H. Manigat, some as Yvon Neptune, Anne Marie Josette Bijou Smarck or Eric Charles, do not rule out this probability, while others like John Henry Céant, Crystalline Yves Jacques Edouard Alexis Charles Henri Baker, Jean Chavannes Jeune or Leon J. Young maintained their original position. The latter denied having made any alliance with either of the candidates vying for the second round.
On an ironic but firm Céant the notary, who says wait for the official publication of the elections of 28 November 2010 including the scores of all candidates, said: "Nothing says it's not me who would go in the second round with another candidate, because it gave no idea scores of candidates. Me, I know my score. " "We maintain our original position to know the outright cancellation of shame election of 28 November and we will support publicly or privately any candidate involved in this so-called second round, stormed Yves Crystalline determined. To listen Charles Henri Baker, even the three candidates for deputies his party accepted the second round will not benefit from its support. Except those constituencies where elections were canceled will have the support of "breathe", said Mr. Baker, who has trouble swallowing the official results of the first ballot. Jacques Edouard Alexis is no different from the others in the "Group of 12". Former Prime Minister of President Rene Preval pleads not only for the cancellation of elections. "This is the only viable option," says Alexis. Two other former candidates contesting, Jean Chavannes Jeune (ACCRHA) and Leon J. Young (KLE), maintain the position until this initial group 12 to which they belong. "Officially, the Group 12 will be associated until now neither candidate, Leon Young said, recalling that the elections of 28 November was an" electoral masquerade ". We do not find the country or in one or the other. " However, the candidate of KLE, reached by telephone in late afternoon on Friday, revealed that" some candidates of the group, close friendships or intend to make, each in their respect, their support for the One of the two candidates. " He is probably right. But he speaks of the former Prime Minister Yvon Neptune (Ayisyen Pou Ayiti "), the former Minister of Public Health, Josette Bijou (Independent) or Smarck Eric Charles (PENH). turnovers probable | | ||

| "Right now, there are different positions. The party's executive office Ayisyen Pou Ayiti will meet next on March 12. And this issue will be the order the day. I have a position I can not reveal yet, "said Neptune, close to former Lavalas, the party of ousted President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who lives in exile in South Africa since 2004. For his part, Dr. Josette Bijou, who says he was approached by Michel Martelly like the other candidates contesting the Group of 12, said he had not yet decided to support a candidate, but this could be done shortly. "I will consult a group of supporters and sympathizers. By next week we will know which candidate I support, "said the former minister, who remains convinced that "annulment of the elections would be the best decision." "I will bear a candidate if it will be necessary," was released, for its part, Smarck Charles, who does not preclude the possibility of supporting Mr. Martelly he calls "pragmatic". "I met Michel Martelly there are more than two weeks, but there is not [yet] been agreed," he added. According to Customs, "if the Haitian people want to go to elections, we can not we be an obstacle." The prognosis Jean Hector Anacacis Former Senator (West) John Hector Anacacis, another unsuccessful candidate for president who is not part of the Group of 12, continues to challenge the final results of the first round and therefore does not support any candidate. "Anacacis endorse any candidate. I could not stand not even Jude Celestin [Platform presidential INIT] though it was my friend, "he said. The parliamentarian, who was considered the spokesman of President Rene Preval, the candidate believes that "Repon Peyisan," March 20 will cause a tidal next tidal wave of voters opposed, he said, the Christian Democrat. The latter, found Mr. Anacacis, is not intelligent politically. Why? "She should denounce the results of the first round, which were declared under pressure from the international community," he replied. "If Ms. Manigat was politically smart, she would know it would have more chance of being elected president in a runoff with Jude Celestin with Michel Martelly", in the opinion of John Hector Anacacis. According to preliminary results of the first round published December 7, 2010, John Henry Céant, Jacques Edouard Alexis Charles Henri Baker, Jean Chavannes Jeune and Yves Christallin were obtained respectively 8.18%, 3.07% 2.38% 1.80% and 1.60% of the vote. Leslie Voltaire Josette Bijou 1.51% and 1%. The former candidates Wilson Jeudy, Jean Hector Anacacis, Leon Young and Eric Charles Smarck not weighed in the balance obtained respectively 0.57%, 0.39%, 0, 35% and 0.24% of the vote. | ||

| Haiti: ; "The left has failed. " How many times do we have heard this pithy phrase, falling like a guillotine over the head of the left, all left? Needless to say I do not share this view, first because it leaves very little room for nuance, but largely because it is false. So saying I would not fall into the trap that I blame others to know how to use a term without definite effort to debate the issue. There is no doubt that the left eyes of these observers, representing different experiences Lavalas who succeeded to power in Haiti from 1990 to today. While it is relatively easy to diagnose failure, it is a little less to establish the "left" that tend to be attributed to President Aristide, his successors and his project. In general, we can measure the success or failure of a head of state or government from the results that often can be observed, measured, calculated and published in numerical terms. That determination or analysis does not constitute the essential purpose of this article, I believe sincerely without sarcasm that did not need me or my section to observe the failure. The list is long, it is by no means exhaustive and covers all aspects of our lives as people (or national life). First, socially and economically, a look at the physical environment of our cities and our countryside is enough to see the dilapidation and decay in which live the majority of our countrymen. From an economic standpoint, the situation is far more radiant. The growth rate of GDP of the last twenty years has never exceeded 3% with an average of 1.5%. When did the correlation with population growth, it gives in all cases negative growth over the past twenty years. Therefore, we can say without hesitation that poverty the country has increased during this period to the point that 43.7% of rural households and 26.1% of urban dwellers live in poverty and 28.5% and 15.3% respectively in extreme poverty. Certainly be invoked to justify political instability such poor performance, but the instability is neither from heaven nor hell. It is produced and we want to proof: the impossibility of harmonizing relations between political actors, the loss of our sovereignty, twice sought (and obtained many times) by those governments, the deterioration of living conditions Haitians material well before January 12, 2010, failure to provide an immediate and medium term after the disaster, lack (or non-implementation) of institutions provided by the Constitution: the Supreme Council of Judiciary, Court of Cassation, dismantling tacit legislative power. The notion of left, politically, comes from France and has appeared during the Revolution. At this time of the Constituent Assembly, the first discussions were held constitutional and opponents of the royal veto regrouped to the left of the semicircle, while supporters of the royal power were at the right wing. Traditionally, the values generally considered and the left are social justice, equality, solidarity, humanism, secularism, while the right highlights the order, work, family, individual responsibility and meritocracy. The arrival of Jean-Bertrand Aristide to power, which occurred in jubilation and in a climate dirair is almost good-natured, however, was the result of intense activity carried out simultaneously by militant groups or political activists, students, some sectors of the Catholic Church and popular organizations. In this somewhat eclectic background, had come to graft a speech, already qualified as revolutionary by some at the time. The high content protest themes dear to the progressive sectors such as egalitarianism, repression and misery of the masses and sometimes even anti-imperialism, seemed absolutely new in the political world at least Haitian public. This sudden burst added to the vehemence, often the virulence of this speech had caused some fear among the upper classes to paste, wrongly or rightly, the epithet of the Lavalas movement and left to his mentors. However, there was a réaccommodation of political and social forces including major oligarchic groups who were able to quickly reposition itself as a hegemonic to the point that today we can say that it is not these groups that their interests have changed, but the government has adapted to their own. It begs many questions: What is left? What is left to be today? The contents of a proposal will be left there like in Europe, South America or Haiti? Speeches and objectives of the Left will they or should they be the same in 1970 than in 2011? Even more relevant, what is being left in 2011 in Haiti? The answer to these questions may seem to first sight very difficult. Some of the ideals (and behaviors) that defined the left have also meanwhile, evolved or were transformed. The acceptance of capitalism, the first European left, has not rendered sterile fighting today or yesterday more limited prospects for tomorrow. Does this mean, as some do, that "left no longer exists" or "cleavage right / left is exceeded? What is certain is that radicalization that characterized not only the left, but the political landscape since the early twentieth century until the late '70s, the fascination of tens thousands of youth in this period for the ultimate sacrifice, or the need for generational heroism has given way in most countries to a more civil and more user-friendly space where the physical disappearance of the other or often itself is no longer necessary. This does not represent a defeat for the left nor the right of a victory, much less a loss of one or the other, but rather the abandonment of suicidal behavior in response to mutual concessions concerning multiple instances of life common political, economic and social. | ||

| The fact of being stripped of some of these banners did not mean emptying the left of its substance nor its wealth. Instead, it has just strengthened by focusing on issues more important and more essential. To quote Claude Gamel (French economist) in his book "Economy of Social Justice, Ethical Compass Capitalism": "The notion of capitalism, we prefer the concept of market economy ; Indeed, the two ideas are related: the respect for private ownership of capital ensures the decision of market participants. However, the failure of planned economies and the reality of capitalist economies show how the debate is more substantive in the simple substitution of collective ownership to private ownership of capital, but only in the possible intervention state. " As I said above, the values of justice and solidarity and fight against social inequalities are important elements of the ideals of the left, values and ideals, but especially targets and constant components of any government, organization or any program left. Certainly, the mere fact of the wave should not suffice to describe a movement or an individual left and we can also wonder if they are depriving the left. But how to achieve their satisfaction and the model used to correct these inequalities are essential elements that characterize the left and the left. What characterizes the Left today, the definition, the proposal then the establishment of property areas increasingly social production and distribution more social benefits of this production. Therefore, other components equally (and perhaps more) important for the process of production of wealth, redistribution of the latter and especially the tools of this redistribution. Today, in front and after the growing strength of liberalism, most governments identified for this new left of the post-Cold War focused to fight first the withdrawal of the state. More than a suggestion, it is a requirement clearly expressed in the creed called neoliberal Washington Consensus: "Privatization is justified by their positive fiscal impact to the short term. " Apart from one example in Latin America and one other in Europe, never been so obedient student to apply neoliberal policies that various governments Lavalas. All state enterprises, whether they are service-oriented: Teleco, EDH, or those oriented production (Milling Haiti, Ciment d'Haiti have been privatized or have simply disappeared without no hope of revival, at least not under these schemes (Sugar Factory Darbonne, SODEXOL, ENAOL). Just as one can always question the real impact that these companies have had on the Haitian economy, the same can ask what is their claims of privatization on fiscal redistribution pursued by the political and economic leaders. Although one of the recommendations mentioned "the tax system should aim to have the broadest base and a moderate level of harvest," he is another whose consequences have been particularly important for our population: the Opening with the liberalization of imports. Quantitative restrictions should be removed, and the customs charge should be relatively uniform and moderate (from 10% to 20%). In 1994 the Lavalas government has carried a drastic reduction of tariff and we saw that previously passed rate of 200% and 300% (rate, which generally protected agricultural production) to 50% by the military go to 0% with the return of democracy C is the case for most commodities and high consumption in the population. These economic measures imposed by international institutions, as we noted above, but adopted by different governments that have succeeded in liberalism, have profoundly altered the socio-economic development. They are characterized by a loss Job peasants, forced migration and a further deterioration increased and accelerated both rural and urban environment but also the social climate in general. This also explains that while social investments now account for just over 6% of our GDP, they do not reflect real social gains. We have already alluded to the virulence of Lavalas discourse in the pursuit of claims and defense of popular interests. However, in any way, it (the intensity) can not determine any ideological or political affiliation. The direct appeal to the people, the constant reminder of his destitution, the call to change without referring to the antagonisms are rather constant and key elements of populism and it can use the left or right (we are now the painful experience of the latter) to achieve its goals and satisfy his thirst. Lavalas is not left much less, it is not left and do not represent. "The proof of the pudding, as Engels said, is in the eating. "The proof of what we have found more in what one does than in what they say. Lavalas has never defined, never proposed nor has either never implemented policies public could be similar to those of the Left. It would certainly have desired, because today, their urgency in Haiti is even more simple questions of sensitivity or ideological option. It is the end to the cruel question of exclusion and those of efficiency, because even in this simple context, the volume of investment depends primarily on the initial stock of human capital (% of population literate, educated, in higher education). Only public policy based on strong leadership of the state to activate the key sectors of the economy may give an answer to the low savings. Opposite is the assistance required and the waltz technicians imposed. The choice seems obvious but crucial: on one hand, a dependency of an economy based on small projects and the reproduction of the precariousness and the other, the possibility of a solidarity economy and the prospect of self-growth maintained. | ||

- "With his size" income redistribution "(which can not much through the general council: it was not until 2012 ...), its dual ecological dimension (Food and Agriculture- Climate and Energy) and another dimension, latent: the crisis of our civilization more and more individualistic, with dissolution of the family and neighborhood solidarity, condemning an aging population and increasingly dependent on age with a terrible loneliness. Yet on these aspects, the General Council is uniquely positioned to create sustainable jobs in mass and not be relocated. Indeed, it has to own powers: the roads (but not transportation), social housing, colleges, social ".
-" This is essentially the changeover Transportation together and building insulation (and renewables). In Europe, a green conversion limited to -20% of CO2 by 2020, for example destroyed 4.5 million jobs in Europe in the production of individual vehicles, but creates 8 million in transit and these jobs are mostly non-relocatable and more skilled (construction site clean and especially driving). For Fracde, pushed to -40%, it reached 650,000 jobs.
While the CG has shared on transport, but on the frame, through its own buildings and social housing, it has enormous power to drive the insulation industry, and it's jobs and qualified SMEs can not be relocated.

- "It's been a while since I react. And I appeal to the leaders, namely Martine Aubry, what has been revealed - including the publication in the press reports of plays ... : drifts clientelist networks of influence ... It is a practice that environmentalists can not cope. We have a different conception of politics, management of local authorities. It takes a leap and a democratic reaction staffs policies. For these abuses, the local political class is very silent. This reflects a form of locking, which may be a consequence of clientelism ".

"The 10,000 inhabitants of Coutances, sub-prefecture of the Channel, can rent since last summer - in the long term - of electric bikes, very useful in that city in marked relief. One features here is that after 4 years of tenancy, the tenant automatically becomes the owner of VAE, a nice carrot to encourage them to rent over a long period!
Following a short survey where about forty people had expressed interest, the City, with financial support of Lower Normandy Region and ADEME has bought 50 electric bikes to launch its rental system long.
Two types of bikes are available, depending on the autonomy they possess, for rent monthly, quarterly or yearly. No deposit is required, but tenants must accept personal responsibility for theft or deterioration. A maintenance contract for the bike and battery providing two Annual revisions are included in the annual rent.

INIT is positioned on the side of Mirlande Manigat: The electoral machine is trapped.
While the campaign of vilification and rage, bases faithful INIT party Lavalas and are positioned to the side of NPDR.
In the North, the news was confirmed: Senators Moise Jean-Charles and Kelly C. Bastien work for the benefit of Mirlande Manigat. They have received assurances that they will participate in the next government. The name of Senator Youri Latortue was quoted as architect of a project to do hands on the Prime Minister's Office with the help of several friends of the initiate. All grassroots organizations that are the backbone of the presidential platform were instructed in meaning.
At some exchanges with leaders of Lavalas - Lavalas - the neighborhoods, they admitted that their strategy is to support Mirlande Manigat for countering a new generation of inner city youth who defy their traditional leadership in the slums. For, according to them, these young people 15 to 29 years, having no idea of Lavalas, become very arrogant. Moreover, they ignore their representatives and "slogans" to the point of wanting to impose their will. They are very violent and often more violent than the hordes Aristide.
By supporting the former first lady, they think to find a respite pending the reorganization of their movement to impose their political project. They rely on the weakness of NPDR - a cadre party with no popular base - on the ground and are in the age of 70 years of the candidate, another strategic advantage that will play in their favor. "Madam Lan ka pap rezist devan presyon lari-a", they say in Creole.(She will not face pressure to our popular)
Meanwhile, on the ground, there are signs of rallying for a mobilization for the return of Jean-Bertrand Aristide.
Meanwhile, the Party INIT seeks to control the appointment of members of the polling stations. In the Northeast, there are voices against the maneuver: "All supervisors selected by the PRC would be men of the Platform to power."
Should point out that disputes between leaders who support Mirlande Manigat and other candidates INIT create reservations that could be favorable to Michel Martelly the second round of elections scheduled March 20, 2011.

Of "signs of poor quality" , "imported from China" ... This is the excuse given by F. Fillon to justify measurements down 20% redemption of the electricity produced in this way, by EDF.
But if we want to develop a chain of photovoltaics in France and overcoming the backlog, especially in the manufacture of panels, it is easy to conceive that we must first equip themselves and that people the redemption price is so for many.
"Sixteen organizations are sounding the alarm about the future of photovoltaics ( World ):
" Fifteen days later, if nothing does not change, twenty five thousand jobs were created in the wake of a major economic and ecological disruption - the Grenelle of the environment - will be jeopardized, several thousands will be removed in the very short term, "they argue in a statement." The government wanted to legally regulate and supervise the cost to the community's development of solar photovoltaics. But the current draft is in grave danger a nascent industry with growing pains, real, deserved special treatment ".
The statement added: " We solemnly urge the Government to reaffirm its ambitions for the sector in a constructive direction in amending the draft text during its consideration by the Higher Council of Energy, March 2 this year, and opening soon in the spirit of the Grenelle Environment Forum, a site of a ' Photovoltaic solar plan an ambitious and beneficial for all.

Instead, the President of the Republic has continued its method of exploitation of foreign policy to respond to a national political crisis, hoping the disguise and mistakes by his Government.
The President continued justification of ideological choices that have led France's position in the world at an impasse. He has pursued his vision of a war of civilizations, recognizing that he had not thought possible for Arab countries access to democracy and still doubting that possibility. Immigration and terrorism have again used to justify a policy run its course and the lack of political vision. Riding on fears, Nicolas Sarkozy has been able to recognize any mistakes. The recovery of its proposal for the Union for the Mediterranean based on the presidents fallen MM. Ben Ali and Mubarak has become a farce. The reshuffle, announced in an exceptional way by the President of the Republic, also showed the same political impasse.
could have been tonight for President Republic to announce a shift expected and necessary for France to recognize the legitimate and democratic uprising of Arab Spring and initiate a genuine policy of cooperation and development: once again, Nicolas Sarkozy has failed in height and increased side of history.

Haiti: "Whatever the winner of the presidential election, the IDB is committed to Haiti, the Haitian people. This commitment is determined by the Board of Governors, the highest instance of the bank," he told the president of the Interamerican Development Bank (IDB) Luis Alberto Moreno.

In this partnership the aim is not to replace the local financial system but to find resources to help SMEs and large enterprises to create jobs, further explained that the Moreno institution has been criticized by some in the past because of the outbreak and the scattering of its funds whose impacts are not very noticeable.
The bank has a system for evaluating projects. Projects are evaluated before, during implementation and after completion to verify their impact, said the president of this institution whose cooperation with Haiti has always been constant.

Mirlande Manigat continues to campaign in the slums

.
After Solino, the candidate of NPDR visited Cité Soleil. We saw no Mirlande in casual pants and hat with green on the head (even a cap as to front-back Solel City) As for the inhabitants of these neighborhoods, they were keen to make the trip to hear what the candidate had to say. Not too many promises. Besides the candidate has advised residents to beware of those who promise to make the most extraordinary things in a relatively short time.
