Does Vemma Pm Make You Lose Weight

employees?

CE extraordinary 11 May dealt a single point: the surrender of Lille. Some reminders about the context:
Lille, declared unprofitable, initially announced as "consolidated" at Niort in the EC in December 2009, will be transferred. After months of questions and concerns, Lille meet the potential buyer. The exchange is positive, the positive impression.

An initial document, very "light" is given to the EC in January.

Politicians question the direction in the proceedings, classic information - consultation. They want answers about the motivations, the consequences for both Lille for the rest of the company, in short, they try to do the job for which they were elected.

When EC meeting (another one) of 29 April, which happened in Lille, they adopt a first deliberation alerting management on the large gaps in the information received, and the impossibility of giving an opinion in the state. The opinion of the EC, we recall, is a prerequisite for signing the contract of assignment.

Before each CE, which starts around 13:00, the politicians find themselves more motivated in the morning to prepare for the meeting. May 11, they note again that management appears determined not to take seriously their repeated requests.

In Lille, the employees took their destiny: they announced a strike starting at the same time as the EC and forwarded a list of demands considered minimum (Guaranteed employment, compensation, etc.).. CGT and other unions to propose a joint statement to alert more solemnly management. CFDT joins, we will finalize all. GSC refuses and tells us: "If management requests a review, we give the Lille want this assignment, we do not block it."

The explanations do not help: the goal is not to block the sale but to secure for all concerned. Some employees concerned do not seem like such a transfer, or the legal basis on which management uses to enforce it at all does not - we must leave the choice to people, especially Parisians, who would stay. Questions as simple as "what is the formula for passing from 13 to 12 months for the payment of wages? "Have not received a response - it is a minimum anyway!
We ask to meet with the buyer to get online and just including the answers on how our colleagues will be incorporated in it - a systematic refusal of management, although this has still practiced in previous assignments, and without incident . While the buyer himself was willing to meet with the EC.

From 11/05/2010 The meeting begins. The motions to strike declaration of Lille, etc.. are read. A discussion was held on issues raised by the EC. On many occasions, management says "we'll find the answer to that question" or "we can not commit ourselves to the place of the buyer." The logic seems clear: the information is not complete. Yes, but the direction seems to know she will get a notice should it so request. It may start negotiations with Lille in a strong position. The Lille

not end up accepting a compromise. Direction pushes the advantage: the transaction must be sealed with a review of the EC. FOR, CGT and CFDT urging members to refuse to vote. Result: 7 votes, 5 refused to participate in the vote. For some voters, many years ago they did not stay too late at a meeting of EC ...

Management now has a free hand. It can even afford the luxury of further information (what happened to the May 20 EC) while the notice is given, and without actually answer the questions!

During our visit to Lille on May 19, we met the employees relieved that things were going but worried because their claims were at least have become complete May 11 They are aware that a number of questions remain unanswered and that the EC has lost its leverage to get them and help them.
Our list is committed to supporting them in their efforts to get answers.

Note that during all the discussions, the perimeter regularly oscillated between BU81 agency and Lille. BU81 gathers all the employees and some non Lille Lille. For simplicity we have discussed in this text Lille but ultimately it is this that is concerned BU81.

Works Social EC

Our record

First, it seems important to repeat: the record of EC's social work is primarily a collective review. Social activities are a cooperative work between politicians whatever their label, not the action of a particular person because she had a specific mandate. Like others, we participated actively in the conduct of duty that we were even in their motor development at the sites of Villepinte, Lyon and Grenoble. Two of our candidates have also supported the long record of reform of the EC's website, essential support to all other activities. They have also reactivated the communication commission, which was virtually nonexistent.
Given the small number of our elected officials, we have largely completed our part. The selection of various financing activities, budget travel and other outings, etc.. are choices that have been taken by all elected, or that should have be. While some have taken it upon themselves not to work collectively, they should not glorify them ...


Our proposals

Our future elected are carriers of the following, which can not be implemented only if all the elected EC decides. It is not an exhaustive list and frozen for 3 years. Ideas can evolve and circumstances change.

• Travel: exploring new formulas for access to a greater number of employees. For example, encourage departures from the main sites as possible.
• Outputs: For us it is important to develop the outputs 'local' nationally broadcast information so that persons related to another site but on a mission to the site where the release takes place can benefit. •
Accompaniment: allow, on outings or trips to each employee to be accompanied by a person of his choice and not necessarily by his (her) spouse (s) or partner (e).
Because if you prefer a vacation with your best (e) friend (s), your brother, your sister or your mother or father is not our problem. • Decide
social functioning collectively. It all CE must choose. All employees must receive the same benefits regardless of the EC attachment. And management decisions must be made with all representatives.

Wemon Playing With Themselfs

Democracy crucified, long live the dictatorship monetary

Democracy is tortured in North America! Long live the dictatorship
money globally! Those who still believe in democracy,
as defined by the meeting of representatives of thirteen colonies became
and the constituent States United States Articles
who formed the first treaty of the organization, allow thirteen states
grouped together to wage war, negotiate treaties, to resolve the
issue of western territories, print currency, to launch
borrowing from both inside and outside the country. Later, on 4
July 1776 war of independence led to the union of former colonies
. The thirteen colonies became states agree to sign
the Declaration of Independence: a new country is formed and seeks to build institutions
. Each of the thirteen colonies gives a constitution
and organizes its own government. For the first time a country speaks
a government of, elected by the people, to serve the people.

Africa, she is informed about what happens on the western horizon? and if not, she knows
what it hides the word democracy? and who are the agents? and com-ment is
it takes to weaken Africa? Globalization has sounded the death knell of democracy
. International treaties have precedence over political
government and some individuals from business, can
reverse a law adopted by a National Assembly and force a govern-ment
to withdraw this legislation, in addition to paying astronomical sums,
in compensation for lost profits present, future or potential.
How can we speak of democracy when a parliament elected by the people
, supposedly to defend its interests, can not pass legislation to
protect the environment and public health in imposition of sanctions, the
benefit foreign multinationals? How can we speak of demo-cracy
when three individuals from the business world can overturn a law passed by
a National Assembly, for the simple reason that this law
hurts corporate profits? Where is the democracy in that?
Governments have become subsidiaries of multinationals. These last
are omnipotent. They swallow small companies
one after the other, with the complicity of politicians who are
them thank you. Thus Canada is becoming a possession
U.S., thanks to globalization and free trade treaty. The com-panies national
worldwide into the hands of Americans
and they interfere in all areas: commercial, cultural, sporting
, etc.. In these circumstances, what else does the identity of African nations
Caines, already unable to consolidate their living space and ensure
the protection of their natural resources?

The Third World countries increasingly sinking into debt. It
same is true for rich countries. They thank you to the financial cartels.
They crush the peoples and countries under the weight of public debt. The
governments can no longer balance their budgets. Globalization
is a disaster. It poses the more serious in protecting the environment
because only profits matter, and they take precedence over laws
government. Soon to start a business, government subsidies
tions will no longer be possible, because if we do not respect the rules
WTO (World Trade Organization), other countries could retaliate by imposing
rates export. All competition will be systematically eliminated
by powerful multinationals and banks.
Where is the democracy in that?

According to Sir Josiah Stamp, former director of the Bank of England
"The banking industry is unconscionable . She was born of sin. Bankers
own land. You can remove them, but if you let the
power to create money, they will buy a single stroke. If you want
remain slaves of Bankers and if you agree to pay
the costs of your own slavery, then just let them
the power to create money. " Democracy was crucified since
his birthplace. It becomes financial dictatorship and slavery
again.

Where To Watch Free Bang Bros Scenes

Tribute Jean-pierre HARRIS


Jean Pierre Harris passed away Monday morning, tired of his earthly life, longing for the trip to a beyond which he sincerely believed. At the announcement of his death, a great silence settled and each of us has faced the memory and introspection on the moments, all different and many shared with Jean Pierre.

Some have ended up with emotion philosophy professor who was able to share his passion and enthusiasm to many students who scored his mark on many young minds, has opened many horizons and sometimes attracted vocations.

Others have mentioned the man opening and culture, friend of the arts and artists, the president of the Maison de la Culture de Nevers, the origins, creators of Malraux and Lauberty, who was also for 10 years, the National Chairman of the Houses of Culture.

Still others who shared his interest in the development of tourism, remember the years spent first at the Presidency of Nièvre Tourism and answering the request of François Mitterrand in a national and international level through its prominent action in the Inspectorate General of Tourism and Chair of the Committee of Flowering of France.

His closest friends accumulate in the evocation of John Peter Harris, the diversity of its interests, the breadth of his curiosity to others and the world, its vast culture and endless conversation.

But recognition of spontaneous Nivernais goes naturally to the local scholar - as he liked to describe himself -, the historian, lover the Nièvre and Nevers, fine spirits and testimonies of the past, the narrator of his "little fatherland", anxious to get him out of anonymity, in which time had plunged forgetful, that the figures of Nevers deemed worthy of mention in the interest of its citizens

How Much Money Can You Getfor A Bad Ankle Sprain

debt



We are all more or less indebted, of course artistically. Someone somewhere has explored the trails before us as we explore sound instantly. In music, the real innovators are actually very rare. If I look at my personal journey, the tangent being taken by my music and my interests, I can only admit to having some great art school, which is still unknown, despite its major impact on modern culture.

And no, I'm not talking about the Hip-Hop ..

My biggest influence is now more of an artistic movement that arose in the late 50s and early 60s, I would call here the Fluxus movement.


Fluxus is basically a group of New York artists have begun to redefine the rules of art and creation, with the foundation, among others, the work of composer John Cage. Thus, the Fluxus movement includes music, but also film, visual art and literature. A bit like hip-hop finally ...

course, this is the music I made contact with the Fluxus and without the knowledge of hand. The first artist associated with the movement that profoundly affected me is unquestionably the German saxophonist Peter Brötzmann. There is a good story behind this discovery. When I was young, my father was a subscriber to the journal French Cultural News, a magazine as he does it any more. I assiduously read this magazine because of the strange articles, photos, shock and often for pictures of naked women. So, the beginning adolescence marked by puberty as friends by the experience of psychedelic drugs. In a number of Current, I was struck by criticism of a disk, Material Group, entitled "Hallucination Engine". I listened mainly prog of the 70s at the time and the fact that modern disk can be used to hallucination had piqued my curiosity. A few years later, I came across the disc said Renaud Bray Park Avenue, at a dinner den French on Fairmount College. I returned the next day without any discomfort to steal my first CD ...




Well, this disc has not had the desired effect, I'm not sure what I expected but I remember putting it into the drive during one of our many trips acid and have thought his play would cause hallucinations ... After the many protests from my friends and the absence of hallucinations (although I was thinking it would come later) I had to put "Ummagumma" by Pink Floyd. However, I discovered new names: Bill Laswell , Nicky Skopelitis , William Burroughs .... But it was Bill Laswell me scored the most. Enough that I found years later behind a fascinating hip-hop entitled Material Intonarumori. On this record we found Laswell prod but Kool Keith, Ramm El Zee , Juggaknots , Killah Priest, Flavor Flav and others less known (I later learned that Laswell had produced disc Afrika Bambaataa, but that's another story).




Subsequently, I stopped using drugs heavily and I became interested in experimental music. My friend 1-2-d'piq had a disc in his collaboration between Bill Laswell and Peter Brötzmann named "Low Life" . Hard disk today, I never listened to the full I think. But I was curious when I saw in here (when it was good in 2001 ...) Peter Brötzmann playing in a room which I was then unknown named Casa del Popolo, I decided go check it out. I walked out converted. Brötzmann played that evening with William Parker and Hamid Drake and during the evening has shaped what would become my obsession, free jazz and improvisation.

Only much later than I learned that Brötzmann was part of Fluxus.

What therefore Fluxus? We relate the origin of Fluxus at the thought of John Cage, who sometimes calls for the deconstruction of musical schools and calls into question the idea of virtuosity in music. Music, like art, not to be limited to schools of thought or diktat aesthetics. In this world everything is possible and everyone is a potential artist. Joseph Beuys was also associated with Fluxus, and the influence of this thinker on the German music scene of the 70s is undeniable (the first album of Kraftwerk in the running head). In this world of choice and spontaneity, you learn to play instruments by ourselves (as Brötzmann), it consists of parts for water or for silence and nothing prevents you compose a piece for a diver before the play in a whale's vagina ( Nam June Paik ). This world is free, creative and disturbing ... It is George Maciunas, a visual artsite, reportedly left the movement in 1961 in New York, Around him were grouped musicians, painters, filmmakers, a small community made possible by Lamonte Young appears he said.

Speaking of Young, an entire generation of musicians gravitating Fluxus around that will also draw on the modal music of India (UAVs), especially with the arrival of Pandit Pran Nath in New York in 1972. This allowed the emergence of a so-called minimalist school in mind Lamonte Young, Terry Riley, Henry Flynt, John Cale, Angus Maclise, Tony Conrad, Charlemagne Palestine, Rhys Chatham ... The Velvet Underground is only the tip of this iceberg

artistic movement in Japan is also growing. Taj Mahal Travellers is definitely the group that currently inspires me the most, also associated with Fluxus. UAVs are ubiquitous and works Yoshi Wada and Takehisa Kosugi are transcendental. But we often forget one of the most famous critic (despite it) of this movement; Yoko Ono, who before meeting John Lennon was married to Toshi Ichiyanagi , one of the great composers and musicians of the Japanese Fluxus. Some forget that Yoko Ono had an artistic approach much more intransigent than her famous husband and when you denigrate by treating opportunistic, one wonders if this is not the opposite happened too.

Also, if I take into consideration the contemporary music group that I most admire, they resemble more or less the idea of Fluxus. The list is long ... And it also goes further, the deinstitutionalization of Art, Fluxus has opened the door to the DIY aesthetic that influenced the punk movement énormémnet and why not, hip-hop too. The debt is huge and you have to be repaid at that took ...

Why Are People Posting # Numbers To Friends

Chad: Dark current and future mortgaged Youth

situation Chadian youth is critical. There is an acute shortage
jobs and those available are mostly dead-end jobs, poorly paid and unprotected
association. Postsecondary education is now almost
overpriced. And the public sector, once abundant source of good jobs
is reduced because the only privatized for ethnic Zaghawa in power in N'Djamena
.

It is no exaggeration to say that the attack against utilities
is an attack against the young. In fact, every job eliminated by the inability
to create new, following early retirement, to attrition or dismissal
is a job that will never exist for a young person.
With an official unemployment rate among youth who remained at 47.5 per
percent - and a real unemployment rate which is rather in the 35 percent
lack of jobs for youth in the public sector is
a problem as serious as the erosion of services themselves. An entire generation of young people is
systematically sidelined
well paid jobs, very well protected and secured with tomorrow ..

No need for a crystal ball to find a country without creating jobs for young
is a country without a future. A country that can not provide stable jobs
or economic security to its young population is also
a country without a future. The Liberal Party of Chad has a key role to play in
shaping a better future for the youth of this country.

The Liberal Party of Chad is committed to enter the next elec-toral
with a plan for youth. A plan that will allow all
citize to enjoy some economic and social security.
a plan that will rejuvenate the public sector. A plan that will attract youth
accession to the PLT for the creation of good jobs and accessible education.
This means that we must fight against the trend of mediocre jobs
casual and temporary, to a trend that rob young people of their hope
and safety. This means that we must fight alongside
youth and support their efforts through our recruitment campaigns,
to the negotiating table and in our public campaigns. This means
defend alternatives program
mean reduction in the public service workforce. That means forcing the
government out of its bubble to realize the harm done
youth. Stealing the future of children, youth and other citizens during
since nineteen (19) years is a disgraceful act.

the values of democracy, peace, openness to the world, Multiculturalism

This amount for the advancement of democracy in the world is certainly
very little, even trivial, compared to the total budget for international aid

Mr Men Shirt Sold In Singapore

What happens NAO?

As you probably know, the mandatory annual negotiations (NAO) is a series of negotiation meetings to be held every year. Wage increases taking place in March at T-Systems, these meetings are usually held between December and March. We are in May and these meetings have not yet begun.

What do we talk about during these negotiations?

wages: it is not just salary but all the elements of remuneration that must be addressed at this meeting. Which included of course, shares variables, various bonuses, overtime, penalty payments, etc. ...
Compensation: all refunds of fees, meal vouchers, per diem, hotel packages, transportation, etc. ...
working conditions: the schedules and the organization of work, leave, professional equality, etc. ...

How should this normally occur?

The negotiations should normally include several meetings. Management must, first, we provide documentation so that organizations union can analyze the situation of employees in the company, on the other hand, trade unions and management must negotiate.

Some disturbing drifts:

First, in recent years, it is good that provide direction to the process, trade unions, the amount of the total available to it, and that they make of claims that fall within that budget.

Then it became customary for the trade unions provide in writing to management their demands (requests for some) and that it "picks" which it seems acceptable, and imposes the rest.

This is not what we call the negotiations.
For us, negotiating is not to provide management with a method of sharing the crumbs that she is willing to let employees and let them choose in this catalog. For us, negotiating is to have each of the proposals and try to find, through discussion and argument, a common ground.

Pending actual negotiation meetings, management provided us with the necessary analytical documents, we still wrote our claim (irrespective of a possible budget management). Find

our analysis of data provided and our claims in the "Downloads"

Contribution Of Royalty

The riddle Will Oldham


There are emotions and the people who put them into music. Will Oldham is in my opinion, one of the leading artists of the last fifteen years. Of course, it has not been a resounding commercial success, but this does not prevent him from releasing an album a year (on average) and benefit from a major recognition of the important players in the music industry. I was curious to see his live show opening for Bjork and the public reaction ...

Whether under his name, pseudonym of Bonnie Prince Billy or within the Palace Brothers, Palace Music, Oldham has this particularly fragile voice and singing style unmistakable. And beyond the style there are the texts. This is probably what distinguishes el over all the other songwriters in its category (a category which would include that? Vic Chesnutt? Smog? ... Suggestions?). It is especially under Bonnie Prince Billy I was seduced by Will Oldham. Some themes are major themes in music, especially those involving human relationships, love, friendship and loneliness are inexhaustible sources of inspiration for those who know how to draw. Especially since I am constantly questioned about the kind of life these people must lead, at least where the thoughts that live everyday ...

I entered automatically into the world of Bonnie Prince Billy through the door of the fabulous "Master and Everyone" (2003). At that time (2003), I'm heartache and struggle with spiritual considerations. Was until you know Leonard Cohen. But still, it was a rare occasion where someone put my emotions into music that way and I could not appreciate its depth. How many times have I felt this surge of emotion in my throat in my eyes listening to "Hard Life" and "The Way". This disc has also proved a success interesting (for a disk stripped of this kind). But I hung on a criticism made by Ian Penman in the pages of the Wire, who did not share the enthusiasm of everyone on this disc, preferring an earlier disc, "I See a Darkness" (1999). He also blamed the "beard conceptual "on the album cover, seen more by the author as existing for aesthetic consideration rather than as a simple beard ... When I finally listened to "I See a Darkness" and I understood why I gave him reason.



This album struck me as significantly above the level of songs, lyrics and arrangements. There are real pearls and this in abundance. I speak here of the title track, "Black" and, especially, but especially, "Death to Everyone". We can cry genius talking about this song, Oldham venturing an avenue oh so slippery but well done by wishing the death of all. Moreover, the themes are more varied and are not all about relationships.



Subsequently, his collaboration with Matt Sweeny on "Superwolf" (2005) was equally cryptic. Sutout in the lyrics, where Oldham surprises us playing both male and female characters in the same song writing in first person (which sometimes leads to confusion). I think that emotions are best worn by those songs are those that are contradictory; love - hate, desire and rejection, including incongruous allusions to sexuality ... A disc so powerful and intimate it is quite disturbing.




Strangely, the book is included in the kit "Superwolf" a short story by American author Paul Bowles , on the distinction between alcohol and cannabis and its uses in Muslim Societies (hashish) and western (alcoholic), and their psychological impact on people. Interesting text which nevertheless blurs the coherence of the musical work. The logic of its inclusion does surely as by a thread, which is located in the head of its creator, but one that escapes the questions.


discs latest Bonnie Prince Billy "Beware" (2009), "The Letting Go" (2006), "Lie Down in the Light" (2008), among others, I do not appear as bright as their predecessors. Leaving me with the impression that Oldham is trying to make his way more accessible. Note that I here is not between light to dark.



In "Survival of the Fireflies" by Georges Didi-Huberman , it analyzes some writings of the Italian writer and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini . He speaks of these men fireflies seeking their way through the darkness by following the "shifting gleams of desire" in love and friendship. In his many records, Oldham manages to be humane and it is this same humanity that seeks to make us sign in the night, reminding us that we are alive, looking for love and others ....

And if I rehash all of this is that naturally, the emotions came back, love and sadness, taking with them their own set of contradictory thoughts and actions and I need someone who can still express them for me.

To give me the feeling of escape from this deception.

Grand Vitara Blueprint

Ashtray Navigations: "Four Raga Moods (Ikuisuus, 2006)


Following a listening and inspirational glowing review of one of the most recent releases of Ashtray Navigations, I had to rediscover the abundant music catalog of Phil Todd, the man behind these explorations of the ashtray.

"Four Raga Moods" had escaped my radar and reading the descriptions of this album, I'm convinced it was all for me, especially since the title predestined me. One may doubt the type of waves which navigates Todd, a misty sea, the smell of sulfur, in which there are volcanic vents threatening to explode at any moment. But it is also a sea chemical, like the fountains found in the bric-a-brac Chinese, those in contact with air will produce a sort of smoke gas, gas innocuous but they say nobody would take the chance to breathe. For cons, the smoke of Ashtray Navigations are not innocuous.

On this record, Phil Todd uses some guests: Ben Reynolds, Pete Nolan (GHQ), Chris Hladowski, Alex Neilson (Trembling Bells Directing Hand ...), Andy Jarvis, Matt Cairns and Melanie Delaney. Phil Todd is enrolled in the experimental scene in Glasgow and is probably one of the artists from the scene of the most ignored but overall the most interesting. The four component parts of this "Four Raga Moods" are highly intoxicating and lead us into a surreal world. Careful listening, are doomed to complete lead us in another place and that capacity is reflected in the different outputs of Phil Todd, which, in my opinion, great music.

Despite the presence of distinguished guests, it is the solo piece by Todd "Hey Sunflower Motherfucker, "which comes off the lot. A carpet of noise, drone, covered with a vaguely oriental guitar, followed by an apex of drums and distorted sounds makes this piece the piece of resistance of this disc. Also note "The Pete Nolan Effect", which lasts over 30 minutes and is a sublime piece of transcendental noise, casios cheap guitars, moog, and a plethora of instruments that contribute to a sublime sonic magma. It's a simple formula, taken a bit throughout the disc, but very effective. It has the right balance between noise, and psychedelic melodies, lo-fi aesthetics lean toward making more noise. A contemplative music, résolument modern.
