			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> As to give grist to G20 ministers meet farm late Friday morning in Cannes, the FAO food price index released yesterday registered a sharp decline after months of increases. It stood at 216 points in October, its lowest level in 11 months. &quot;Prices nevertheless remained generally higher than last year and remain very volatile,&quot; says to FAO, the UN Food and Agriculture. </p>
<p> The fight against price volatility in agricultural commodities is precisely the heart of the priorities that the ministers of agriculture have taken in June in Paris during the holding of a special agricultural G20. These will draw Friday a first assessment of this work.&quot;The challenge for leaders is to find ways to constrain the natural volatility of the courses without mask or minimize the aggravating factors which tend to look the part of financial markets,&quot; said Didier Rousseau, expert industry the agri-food consulting firm Weave <a href="http://paydayintime.com">Same day payday loans</a><!-- . -->. Volatility can be explained according to the expert by &quot;the increase in global food demand, the emergence of biofuels or the occurrence of weather-related disasters.&quot; </p>
<p> The five commitments that will be discussed and reviewed at the G20 agricultural Cannes </p>
<p> • Establishing information system on agricultural markets (AMIS). Hosted by the FAO global database that aims to improve transparency and information on agricultural markets of four major crops for food security (wheat, rice, corn, soy).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The debt crisis in the euro area is growing. After Moody&#39;s threw the trouble on the debt rating of France, the rating agency has put his threat for Spain. Following in the footsteps of Standard and Poor&#39;s and Fitch, the rating agency lowered the credit rating of the fourth largest economy in the euro area by two notches to &quot;A1&quot; instead of &quot;Aa2&quot;. </p>
<p> Moody&#39;s, however, shows more severe than its competitors. She attributed to Spain&#39;s fifth best mark where Standard and Poor&#39;s and Fitch gives it their fourth best. Moody&#39;s and depriving the country of the issuer status for high-quality issuers to the rank swallow solids but may be affected by changes in economic conditions. Like its competitors, the rating indicates the rating of Spain could again be lowered to medium term <a href="http://payday-4all.com">faxless payday advance</a><!-- . -->.</p>
<p> To justify its decision, the agency said that &quot;Spain continues to be vulnerable to market pressures&quot; that economic growth should reach only 1% at best in 2012 (and not 1.8% as the Moody&#39;s previously thought), and that it &quot;will make it more difficult to achieve the ambitious budgetary targets&quot; of the country. Moody&#39;s also kept a &quot;negative outlook&quot; rating on the Spanish because of the &quot;risk posed to the country for worsening of the crisis in the euro area.&quot; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> On May 15 the &quot;outraged&quot; Spaniards camped in the square of Puerta del Sol in Madrid. Borrowing their name to the pamphlet by Stephen Hessel, they said they were inspired by the Arab Spring to shout their rebellion against the explosion of unemployment and austerity policies implemented by the government &#8230; Since then, the challenge has been extended in the rest of Europe but also overseas. Five months after the birth of the movement in Spain, in 82 countries is that these &quot;outraged&quot; will show this Saturday, October 15. Zurich to New York, to Rome, Tijuana, Hong Kong and Johannesburg, calls have been launched in 951 cities worldwide.</p>
<p> Their message to politicians and financial elites, as can be read on the site 15october, is: &quot;The powers that be working for the benefit of some ignoring both the will of the majority that the price human and environmental we pay. This intolerable situation has to stop. &quot;On the site of the movement Occupy Wall Street, the tone is the same:&quot; The thing we all have in common is that we are the 99% who will not tolerate any longer the greed and the corruption of the remaining 1%. &quot;In Italy, the program is summarized as follows: &quot;Occupation of public places by millions of people who do not want to pay the enormous economic and social crisis in the place of those who have caused: political power industrial, economic and financial&quot; . </p>
<p> No central authority
<p> This day of action is to cross an important milestone in the movement, which now acquires an international dimension. &quot;It was needed to make weight against the power of financial markets that operate on a global scale,&quot; says Sophie Banasiak, &quot;indignant&quot; Paris. </p>
<p> However, there is no central body to coordinate the different actions. &quot;If the collective Democracia Real Ya played a leading role in the initial mobilization in Spain, he does not prevail, either in the capital of the country or world, Heloise said Nez, a sociologist at the University Paris 13.Many groups are working together, but none have hegemony over the movement horizontal and egalitarian aims. There is no visible head and outraged caregivers to regularly change the voice <a href="http://pay-day-loan-s.com">online pay day loans</a><!-- . -->. &quot; </p>
<p> &quot;If someone asks you &#39;who is behind it&#39;, they reply: &#39;I&#39;&quot; retorted on those who seek the organizers. The spread of a city or country to another must be spontaneous, for emulation. A process greatly facilitated by social networks, where multiple keywords are emerging, such as &quot;yeswecamp&quot;, &quot;# yosoy15O&quot;, &quot;# event15oct&quot; or &quot;# Globalrevolution&quot; &#8230; &quot;I do not even know exactly who launched the idea of ​​the October 15, recognizes Spyros, OccupyLSX supporter of the movement in London.We have seen that call for Saturday and it was inspired by the movement Occupy wall street to do the same thing here. &quot; </p>
<p> Specific demands of each country
<p> If dissatisfied with the world found common denominators, claims and complaints are divided again according to national issues. In Spain, Real Democracia Ya accent has been on the reform of the electoral law to end the two-party system as well as stopping the evictions of indebted owners. In Anglo-Saxon countries, it is mainly finance, pointed as responsible for the crisis, which is targeted. Witness the names of the movements that develop, &quot;Occupy Wall Street&quot; and &quot;Occupy London Stock Exchange (OccupyLSX).&quot; In Israel, the mobilization is the expensive housing while in Italy, the outraged refuse to pay &quot;a debt they have incurred.&quot;But all these central issues do not prevent each protester to express other concerns. In Spain some point impunity surrounding crimes of Francoism and the United States is denounced police brutality or the death penalty &#8230; </p>
<p> Above all, each city retains its autonomy: information flows globally, but &quot;decisions, they, are taken at meetings in every city, Banasiak said Sophie. Each city chooses its own way of decision. In Paris and Madrid for example, is the consensus. The international dimension does not change the fact that the essence of the movement is local: it is in the physical encounter and dialogue in the streets. &quot; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> SNCF never ceases to celebrate 30 years of its TGV. After the launch last May of a train specially decorated, a new celebration takes place Saturday night in the Gare de Lyon in Paris. The President of the SNCF Guillaume Pepy, and Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, Minister of Ecology and Sustainable Development, will attend a particular video show projected on the facade of the Gare de Lyon which left the first TGV, the September 22, 1981. </p>
<p> A few figures summarize the tremendous success of the first high-speed train developed by Alstom to accommodate all age groups, mobile executives, young, old &#8230; In all, nearly two billion passengers have taken in 30 years. 83% of French people have traveled at least once on board the TGV, which now serves 230 stations. </p>
<p> But the station pulled the alarm a few years ago commercial success, the TGV is not an economic powerhouse.The accounts of the industry are deteriorating, the fault, including the tolls the operator must pay to Réseau Ferré de France, the operator of the system for the use of high-speed lines. Today, nearly 30% of high-speed lines in circulation are not profitable. Guillaume Pepy regularly reminded that the company can no longer afford to invest in next-generation trains <a href="http://businesscardsabc.com">business cards</a><!-- . -->. </p>
<p> The future railway landscape
<p> Several projects of new lines are under way: the Rhine-Rhone, just opened, the Tours-Bordeaux, Brittany or the Loire region, not to mention the circumvention of Nimes and Montpellier. But others are virtual as the Paris-Caen. The success of the TGV has indeed given to the regions want to have &quot;their&quot; TGV.But the question of funding problem and use increasingly common in public-private partnership, a financing involving the state and communities in building a private group, is not a panacea. </p>
<p> After the festivities, Focus on the rail, a kind of rail Grenelle oragnisé by the Department, will again bring together industry players at round tables austere. Objective: To shape the future landscape railway &#8230; and give the French the prospect of other celebrations in the coming decades. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The people of the East Coast of the United States are preparing for a weekend out of the ordinary. In anticipation of Hurricane Irene, the authorities announced palsy or slowing of most means of transport that normally innervate New York Area. Once is not custom, the inhabitants of the Big Apple, including 250,000 living near the coast are being evacuated, will have to live in slow motion. </p>
<p> For security, the three New York airports &#8211; JFK, La Guardia and Newark &#8211; will be closed Saturday for aircraft arriving at noon (18 hours Paris time). The flights from these airports, however, may take off until further notice. This is an extraordinary disruption to an area that typically concentrates the air flow one of the densest in the world: each year, as many as 100 million passengers pass through this metropolis.This weekend, more than 8,000 flights should be canceled, according to the site FlightAware.com. </p>
<p> Like most of his counterparts, Air France announced Friday the cancellation of all flights to New York JFK on Saturday and Sunday, while disturbances are waiting on those provided to and from other cities the coast, like Washington, Philadelphia or Boston. The resumption of service, from Monday, could also be laborious and cause further disruption, have also warned the airlines. </p>
<p> Transport suspended
<p> Measure more tangible for the people, public transport will be suspended in the Big Apple this Saturday from noon until probably Monday rush hour <a href="http://cash-advance-nofax.com">flexcheck cash advance</a><!-- . -->. The subway, buses and railways do not circulate.Motorists have also been asked to leave their cars at home until the alert is lifted. If winds exceed this weekend 96 km / hour, the authorities of the State of New York have also warned they would close the main roads towards the city, and some bridges. </p>
<p> Given the restriction of transportation and possible damage caused by the passing of Irene, the inhabitants were ordered to stockpile water and food in preparation for the weekend. &quot;Water is our product that sells best,&quot; noted the retailer Wal-Mart on Friday. Many are those who are armed with power generators in case of power failure.</p>
<p> To address these potential damages, the cost could rise to nearly $ 12 billion according to consulting firm Kinetic Analysis, U.S. authorities are preparing to deploy in new ways. 900 National Guardsmen and 2,500 workers in the electricity sector include ready to intervene in case of power failure. All these measures aim to avoid at all costs repeating a scenario to Katrina, the hurricane that was painfully struck New Orleans in 2005. </p>

Accentuating even further their descent, the indices have hurt Barack Obama&#39;s speech, who spoke to 20 hours Paris time, the Nasdaq has lost more than 6.5% shortly after the speech. And bad mood has not dimmed until the closing bell on the contrary, the end of the session was sprotive. Finally, the Dow Jones appears falling from 5.55% to 10,809.85 points. This is the first time since October that the index feature finishes below 11,000 points, its worst day in percentage terms since December 2008, a dark period for the financial sector. </p>

<p> When Barack Obama spoke in an attempt to reassure the markets, investors do not stop selling. Worse, they pressed the pedal and drop is even more markets. &quot;The United States still deserve note &#39;AAA&#39;,&quot; said Monday night during a speech Barack Obama, on the downgrade of U.S. debt Friday by the rating agency Standard and Poor&#39;s. The U.S. president also defended the credit of the United States but acknowledged a deficit problem. Barack Obama, however, that the economic challenge was surmountable but require political will. </p>
<p> Nothing to do.&quot;The deterioration in the rating of the United States is clearly the catalyst for the drop in markets today, but is not the reason, according to Michael Sheldon, chief strategy officer at RDM Financial. Degradation is simply evidence that the U.S. has problems. &quot; </p>
<p> Note that in Latin America, falls are breathtaking. Financial center of Sao Paulo (-8%) and Buenos Aires (-10.73%) plunged. In Chile, the Santiago Stock Exchange (-6.96%) did not record such a decline for 13 years. In Lima, a decline of 7.03% has even led to a suspension of trading an hour before closing. </p>
<p> Gold still a step higher, oil falls below $ 82
<p> Witness the panic in the markets, gold has posted yet another record high and rose 4.25% to 1722 dollars an ounce at 20:30, before returning to 1717 dollars to 22 hours.Oil, however, has dropped by more than 6% Monday in New York, their lowest levels since November. On the New York Mercantile Exchange (Nymex), a barrel of &quot;light sweet crude&quot; for September delivery finished the session at 81.31 dollars, down 5.57 dollars or 6.4% on Friday. </p>
<p> Paradoxically, U.S. bond rates continue to decline, those same 10 years falling by 8.5% melting at 2.339% against 2.558% Friday. Good to 30 years returned to 3.663% against 3.823%. However, after degradation much faster than expected by Standard &amp; Poor&#39;s sovereign rating of the United States, which had never been subjected to such a penalty could have been expected to climb  <a href="http://payday-loans-nofax.com">no faxing payday loans</a><!-- . -->.Sign that investors still believe that the U.S. still refer to the bond market. </p>
<p> Moody&#39;s said Monday it could, too, by 2013 reduce the debt rating of the United States if the fiscal and economic outlook deteriorated sharply. But she considers it possible in the meantime a new agreement in Washington to reduce the deficit. </p>
<p> Menu macro loaded, with the FOMC in dish
<p> This week, the lower macroeconomic indicator to take the pulse of a threatened U.S. growth will be expected to turn to investors. </p>
<p> From Tuesday, the productivity of U.S. companies in the second quarter and will be scrutinized closely. The risk is to see it getting more than expected, resulting in a logical breakdown of the job. Consumer confidence is also on the menu.But the final communique of the Monetary Policy Committee of the U.S. Federal Reserve (FOMC), from that Tuesday night will go to the most crucial. </p>
<p> Analysts and investors are wondering already if further monetary easing, (3 or quantitative easing &quot;EQ3&quot;) can get out. Unless it is an aid to banks, which could begin to experience problems of interbank liquidity, which is preferred. &quot;In all cases, the reaction of short-term market is very uncertain &#8230;&quot; says it does at Aurel BGC. </p>
<p> Friday, retail sales will be the second major economic meeting a week at high risk on financial markets worldwide. &quot;The sales figures published by the values ​​of the S &amp; P 500 were clearly disappointing July, underline in this respect analysts Aurel BGC.But the report shows significant employment job creation in the distribution. A figure that looks very uncertain. &quot; The trade balance in June should also be well attended. </p>
<p> Bank of America falls 20%
<p> Meanwhile, the business side, the publications of interim results are less numerous and can only remember very little attention to markets, obsessed by the European and U.S. sovereign debt. Walt Disney reveals in particular accounts on Tuesday, ahead of Cisco in the matter and News Corp (Wednesday) and Nordstrom, Sara Lee, and Kohls (Thursday), and finally JC Penney (Friday). </p>
<p> American International Group (AIG: -9.92% to 22.61 dollars) continues Bank of America (-20.07% to 6.53 dollars), calling him more than $ 10 billion (7 billion euros) losses related to mortgages, it said in the text of the complaint.According to this document, which Reuters obtained a copy, AIG believes it was misled by the bank about securities backed by mortgages, which caused losses. The insurer wants to sue Bank of America to the Supreme Court of the State of New York in Manhattan. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Twenty products absent from the shelves of the pharmacy on the first day of the week. This is the situation that a small pharmacy owner in the fifteenth arrondissement of Paris, a few days of the summer closure of his pharmacy. An almost normal, and shared by many of his colleagues. These problems of supply disruptions, the pharmaceutical companies (LEEM) have also identified a few months. Front-line antiretroviral drugs (treatments against AIDS), insulin, or steroids. In some small pharmacies, such as supply disruptions related antidepressants and vaccines.</p>
<p> &quot;The mountain of pharmacies in these areas have alerted us, says we in the trade association of the drug industry, because in general, breaks off and still found the result of bad weather, or social movements. &quot; This was not necessarily the case in recent months.&quot;For some specific drugs, including antiretrovirals, there is a significant difference between the amounts made available to the distribution channel for businesses, and far below the number of units dispensed by pharmacies in town,&quot; confirms the organization. </p>
<p> In this case, then those products which go missing? According to Leem, some drugs would be captured by &quot;short liners,&quot; the new intermediate appeared recently (4-5 years), whose intervention &quot;aims to capture the margins, and do not have to Unlike the traditional players, a culture of health professionals &quot;, warns Leem.And the controversy grew about the possible disruptive effect that these new players would result in the drug market. </p>
<p> Introduction of quotas
<p> These new entrants are currently only 2.5% of the market for thirty entities in competition with wholesale distributors, who are the traditional intermediaries between laboratories and the approximately 23,000 French owners of pharmacies. &quot;This is especially true for drugs produced and distributed in small quantities, such as antiretroviral (ARV) where their intervention significantly affects the fluidity of the market, says Emmanuel Déchin, general secretary of the Chambre Syndicale in the pharmaceutical distribution (CSRP) , which comprises seven members, representing 97% of the French market.&quot;We know that none of these ARV box which is sold is intended for the French market.&quot;. </p>
<p> In addition, since the early 2000s in France, every distribution is given by pharmaceutical companies, quotas based on national market share. &quot;We understand the concern of an economic actor such as a laboratory to better control the flow of production, Emmanuel Déchin tempers. But it also induces more rigid and can penalize us and expose us to break. &quot; Today, about 600 drugs on the 5300 allowed the French market are subject to these quotas. And strong demand in France for some products, lead to regular stock-outs on nearly 270 specialties, according to the Union of pharmacists (USPO).</p>
<p> Also, some advance to explain that the pharmaceutical giants, or even distributors, do not hesitate to reserve a portion of their stocks of the more &quot;lucrative&quot;. Indeed, patented products still sell for an average of three to five times more expensive in the U.S. than in France. And even within the European Union, large disparities persist. On average, the products can be sold 20% more expensive in Germany than in France, while in Spain, prices are generally lower than 10%. &quot;I do not honestly believe that a laboratory, despite its economic imperatives, can do this type of arbitrage to the detriment of the health of patients&#39; tempers Déchin Emmanuel. </p>
<p> The health minister is prepared to legislate
<p> For his part, and face these charges, the Health Minister Xavier Bertrand was firm: &quot;These systems are known to parallel importation, but I do not want that.What is planned for France should be consumed in France, &quot;he said on Europe 1 radio on Tuesday. He was prepared to legislate if laboratories and wholesalers did not meet their obligations, &quot;or you meet your quota, or I will oblige with a new text, he said. It&#39;s a shame to come here but I will not hesitate one second to do so. &quot; </p>
<p> Therefore, to overcome these difficulties, some small pharmacists have no choice but to defeat the usual, explains that another pharmacist in a small pharmacy (800,000 euros of annual turnover): &quot;either we manage with co-major pharmacies that are generally better off than us, or we go directly to the laboratory control. But this can only be temporary, because of course we pay more than the wholesaler! &quot;.For two or three years, the pharmacist admitted being increasingly confronted with such situations, including antiretrovirals and cancer. Clearly, treatments that can not wait. Troubleshooting
<p> Faced with this shortage, Leem and the French Agency for Safety of Health Products (AFSSAPS) have set up emergency solutions (stocks troubleshooting, short circuit &#8230;) and special issues to avoid the maximum out-of treatment for patients. A temporary workaround, which can not do without an in-depth study of the new challenges of the French system of drug distribution. What the Department of Competition and Fraud (DGCCRF) seems to be addressing.</p>
<p> In turn, dispatchers did not call for the abolition of quotas, nor to that of intra-EU trade, but felt that the resolution of this issue &quot;very complex&quot; pass through &quot;pragmatism and a sense of responsibility on the part of all actors in the chain, given the economic pressure to which they are subjected. &quot; </p>
