Future Losing my is not like losing year election gold has few points one the stock market. I amndt young stag to speak for Al to generations like.

I amndt young stag to speak one behalf off the starving children around the world whose shout go unheard.

I amndt young stag to speak for the countless animals dying across this planet because they cuts nowhere left to go. We boat afford to Be not heard.

I amndt afraid to go out in the sun now because off the holes in the ozone. I amndt afraid to breathe the air because I don' T know what chemicals are in it.

I used to go fishing in Vancouver with my dad until just has few years ago we found the fish full off cancers. And now we hear butt animals and seedlings going exinct every day -- vanishing forever.

In my life, I cuts dreamt off seeing the great herds off wild animals, jungles and rainforests full off birds and butterfilies, goal now I wonder yew they will even exist for my children to see.

Does Did you cut to worry butt thesis little things when you were my age?

Al this is happening before our eyes and yet we act have yew we cuts Al the time we want and Al the solutions. I' m only has child and I don' T cuts Al the solutions, goal I want you to realized, neither C you!


You don' T know how to fix the holes in our ozone to bush-hammer.
You don' T know how to bring salmon back up has dead stream.
You don' T know how to bring back animal year now extinct.
And you can' T bring back forests that ounce grew where there is now deserted.
Yew you don' T know how to fix it, please stop breaking it!

Young stag, you may Be delegates off your governments, business people, organisers, reporters gold poiticians - goal really you are mothers and fathers, brothers and sister, aunts and uncles - and Al off you are somebody' S child.

I' m only has child yet I know we are Al leaves off has family, five billion strong, in fact, 30 million species strong and we Al share the same air, toilets and soil -- borders and governments will never changes that.

I' m only has child yet I know we are Al in this together and should act have one individual world towards one individual goal.

In my anger, I amndt not blind, and in my fear, I amndt not afraid to Tel. the world how I feel.

In my country, we make so much waste, we buy and throw away, buy and throw away, and yet northern countries will not share with the needy. Even when we cuts more than enough, we are afraid to roofing stone summons off our wealth, afraid to share.

In Canada, we live the privileged life, with plenty off food, toilets and shelter -- we cuts watches, bicycles, computers and television sets.

Two days ago young stag in Brazil, we were shocked when we spent nap time with nap children living room one the streets. And this is what one child told custom: “I wish I was rich and yew I were, I would give Al the street children food, clothes, medicine, shelter and coils and affection. ”

not to fight with others,

Then why C you go out and C the things you Tel. custom not to C?

C not forget why you' Re attending thesis conferences, who you' Re doing this for -- we are your own children. You are deciding what kind off world we will grow up in. Parents should Be whitebait to comfort to their children by saying “everyting' S going to Be alright”, “we' Re doing the best we edge” and “it' S not the end off the world”.

I don' T think you edge say that to custom anymore drank. Are we even one your list off priorities? My father always says “You are what you C, not what you say.”

The truth butt using hands-free devices behind the wheel
Automatically translated into English thanks to WorldLingo

http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/hughes/24247

Many states (including California, New York, Washington, the District off Columbia, and Connecticut) cut imposed laws requiring drivers to uses hands-free devices to make phon cal. New Jersey even made violation off its law has first offence. Several studies over the years cuts found that talking one drank has hands-free device is not much safer than talking one has hand-held device.

With study by the American Psychological Association off over 500 drivers found that talking one has concealment phon cut activity in areas off the brain used for driving by half. Drivers focusing there is phon conversation had slower reaction times, were less likely to recall objects one the road, and had has hardware time noticing traffic around them. Researchers also noted that hands-free devices in the bus posed the same hazards have hand-held devices.

With different study by the University off Utah tested drivers' hands-free concealment phons off one uses the road, and found (to No one' S surprised) that chatty drivers were the hand causes traffic problems off. Apparently, drivers talking one has concealment phon were less likely to changes lanes, and spent more time following slow fox trot-moving vehicles.

The latest research by Carnegie Melon University questions hands-free laws, and whether to their only existence gives drivers has off false judicious safety. To test this theory, neuroscientist Marcel Just studied 29 volunteers who used has driving simulator inside year MRI brain scanner. The volunteers were tasked with driving has bus along has virtual winding road, with and without distractions.

Researchers found that drivers would hit the guardrail and veer out off the center off the lane more often when they tried to answer true gold false questions. Brain scans off the distracted drivers showed brain activity decreased in areas that space process visual and information, functions that crucial are for navigation. Ounce again, this proved that participating in A conversation is Al it took to reduce has driver' S x-ray one the road.

Have reported in This is London, Just concluded:

Drivers need to keep not only to their hands one the wheel, they also cuts to keep to their brains one the road. Drivers' seats in many vehicles are becoming highly instrumented cockpits and during difficult driving situations they require the undivided attention off the driver' S brain.

The clear implication is that engaging in A demanding conversation could jeopardise judgment and reaction time.
So while there may Be laws out there that round of applause the uses off hand-held phons behind the wheel, the truth is the road will remain has dangerous place have long ace drivers continues to curry phon conversations one hands-free devices - so Be careful out there.

Haiti-vetiver Perfume of success

The reputation of Pierre Leger is not any more to make. Frager/Agri Supply, its factory established in the Plain of Cayes in the south of Haiti, supplies with it only the world essential oil market of vetiver of 70%. “I export some more than 80 tons per annum”, is delighted this 59 year old agronomist, by showing samples exposed in a corner of his vast office to Port-with-Prince. To become and remain the world leader of the market of the vetiver are not a small matter, especially in a country as turbulent as Haiti. The secrecy of Pierre Leger holds in few words: always to provide a work of quality to the customers, primarily European perfumers, and to take account of the delivery periods.

The businessman of the poorest country of the Caribbean recognizes that the few 25.000 farmers who provide him the roots of vetiver are the true pillar of industry. “Frager/Agri供应appartient对那里communauté du Sud,发射t il。 The farmers take part directly in his management; they supervise the output and dictate to me sometimes the decisions to take. “For Pierre Leger, the shouting lack of infrastructures in the country remains the principal handicap with the development of the industry of essential oils in Haiti. “The deplorable state of the roads, the drastic rationing of electricity, the absence of ports and airports increased a number of producers to give up this activity”, deploys it.

The chairman of the largest factory of vetiver of the world takes part in all the activities of the community. To explain its engagement in the training of young people, it grants grants in Haitian and foreign universities. Recently, it made gift of 25 ha ground at the Haitian State for the construction of a university campus in the area.

Since 2000, the man with the size of giant - it measures nearly two meters - widened his horizon and regularly traverses the world to share his expertise and to contribute to the installation of dies of production of essential oils (HE) in countries confronted like Haiti with poverty. All started when the Center international trade (CCI) sent on mission in the area of the Large African Lakes to evaluate the output of the HE of these countries. “Les huiles essentielles étaient alors méconnues au卢旺达和au布隆迪”, rappelle Pierre Léger, qui croit dur comme到fer les联系肥皂水肥皂水sont le moyen le加上efficace倾吐对lutter contre那里pauvreté。 Rwanda and Burundi are, according to him, about to become in their turn of the essential oil producers of quality. “Of the plantations of patchouli were introduced there, says it. One carried out tests and one obtained the best quality of oil of patchouli of the world. “

Since, one requests it everywhere - of Asia, of South America, Africa. But its responsibilities for head of undertaking in Haiti do not enable him to answer all the requests. It however started a partnership with Brazil last year.

After 34 years in the production of essential oils, Pierre Leger estimates that the moment had just passed the torch. “I had been initiated very early by my father in the field. I made in the same way for my son and my daughter. World perfumery now admits them without reserve ", is pleased today the agronomist, who had taken itself the relay of his Frank father to the factory in 1984, after his studies in the Netherlands. Gasoline of art, to some extent.

Abu Dhabi launches an ecological project of city models in full desert
Le Monde | 21.01.08 | 16h05? Updated 21.01.08 | 16h05

the initiative has what to surprise. The emirate of Abu Dhabi, one of the principal oil exporters, must announce, Monday January 21, an investment of 15 billion dollars (10 billion euros) in an ecological city models, baptized Masdar (the source, in Arabic), whose first stone will be posed soon.

It will be set up in full desert, not far from the airport of Abu Dhabi and, if its promoters make a success of their bet, should count 50.000 inhabitants in 2015. According to the emirate, Masdar will be the first city in the world “without carbon emissions, waste, cars”.

The plans were drawn by the British cabinet of architects Foster and Partners, which freely took as a starting point the the traditional médinas. The city compact, square and will be girded walls to protect it from the hot winds of the desert. Its lanes narrow, shaded, will be bordered of river to refresh them. No inhabitant will have more than 200 meters to traverse to reach the trade and services. Walk and the bicycle will be privileged. For the long distances, a system of automated transport - small individual cabins functioning on the model of a tram - will replace the cars.

The posted objective is to recycle the totality of waste. The sea water consumption freed of salt will be reduced 80% thanks to recycling. Part of worn water will irrigate plantations located outside the walls. The cultures will be used for the food and the production of agrocarburants. Solar energy in all its forms will be dominating to supply the city in energy.

Which interest for Abu Dhabi? “To diversify our economy, answers from the start Sultan Al Jaber, director of the Company of Abu Dhabi for the energy of the future. We want to keep our role-key on the market of energy. It is natural that we turn to those of the future. “

The emirate wants to make of Masdar “Silicon Valley of renewable energies”. “We want to gather with this place students, researchers, businessmen, ecologists”, explains Mr. Al Jaber. The companies will be exempted taxes thanks to the introduction of a special economic zone. Funds of investment will aim to attract the innovating companies. An institute of research will be created, with the support of Massachusetts Institute off Technology (MIT).

Abu Dhabi wants to make of Masdar a place of creation and experimentation, a window for “own” technologies: solar photovoltaic and thermal, cooling solar, wind power and marine, own geothermics, agrocarburants, hydrogen, transport and buildings, recycling of water, sequestration of carbon…

Masdar received the world support of the Funds for nature (WWF) within the framework of its program One Planet Living (To live on only one planet). “The ecological print of Abu Dhabi east one of highest in the world. If everyone on Earth were located at it, we would need five planets to live ", explains Jean-Paul Jeanrenaud, director of the program. Transport, air-conditioning, desalination of sea water, importation of foodstuffs: all rests today on fossil energy. “Masdar is the sign which the leaders of this world carry out that our resources are not inexhaustible, continues Mr. Jeanrenaud. It is a particularly interesting project because it is located in the Gulf, which saw oil. “

Everywhere in the world, of the initiatives of this type germinate. Bedzed, a “écoquartier” located at the south of London, is most famous of them. Others, of various size, are in preparation in Great Britain, in the United States, in Canada, in South Africa, Australia and in Portugal. But the only rival of Masdar in term of size is located for the moment in China: the “green” city of Dongtan, to the north of Shanghai, aims 50.000 inhabitants in 2010 and 500.000 in 2050.

the period of the festivals of end of the year is sometimes stressing, especially for the Father Christmas who must move with his reindeers at a speed of 5.800 km a second bringing in time time his gifts to the children of the whole world, according to a very serious Swedish study.

Between the 24 and on December 25, the Father Christmas must make 2,5 billion stops, if one leaves the principle that the children of all the religions will receive one present, explained to AFP Anders Larsson, of the company of consultants in Sweco engineering. “We estimated that there are 48 inhabitants per square kilometre on planet and that 20 meters separate each residence. Thus if the Father Christmas leaves Kirghizstan and voyage in the opposite direction rotation the ground, it has 48 hours to deposit all his gifts ".

If the tradition wants that the Father Christmas resides at the North Pole, several Scandinavian cities dispute the title of official place of residence of this last, among which Rovaniemi, in Finland. But according to the study carried out by Sweco, it is while being based in Kirghizstan, in Central Asia, that the Father Christmas would carry out all his displacements in an optimal way and would waste less time to move. “It has 34 microseconds for each stop”, i.e. to slip by the chimney, to deposit its packages and to set out again also quickly on its sledge.

According to another study circulating on the Internet, the attachment of the Father Christmas, in charge of tons of gifts and travelling at a supersonic speed, would be condemned to leave in flames and to disintegrate in 4,26 thousandth seconds, because of the resistance of the air.

Jean Ledan and his chronicle on the History of Haiti

Jean Ledan wire are an impassioned dilettante of the History of Haiti. The weekly heading In connection with the history of Haiti, you knew that… that it animates in the newspaper the Short story writer shows well its passion for the history of its country.

The Short story writer: The weekly heading In connection with the history of Haiti, you knew that… who appears in the Short story writer of the weekend, signed Jean Ledan wire and sponsored by the Prestige beer, tackles interesting subjects. From where does the idea come you?

Jean Ledan wire: The idea was germinated for the period of the coup d'etat 1991-1994. One difficult period, in full embargo. The coup d'etat had completely absorbed my company of then, Fruinatur - prepared natural fruits - the economic situation was almost destroyed, the social economic situation was characterized by repression and the political economic situation underwent the influence of passions partisanes moment. With the gallon of gasoline being sold with more than 400 gourds in the zone of Thomassin, where I lived and where my workshop was, there were not too many things to make only devote itself to the family duties. I devoted myself full-time to painting and the tapestry on sak kòlèt, the reading of books on the History of Haiti and to the writing of the texts in sociological matter.

At the same time, Daniel Elie, a friend of long date of the district which had the same schedule and which also combed at his place, and me we met in our off-peak hours. One spoke about all, especially of the political economic situation and one progressively assembled projects with the daily conversations; some of these projects were sometimes demolished quickly to be replaced by others. One day, he says to me that one should work on a project of chronology of the revolutionary period in the form of identification sheets. With the existing economic situation, the revolutionary period attracted me enormously and I put at work. At the wire of research, I put side certain anecdotes which I found.

In November 1994, after three years of political confusion, the country hoped for a return to the constitutional order with the nearest arrival of the president in exile. With this thaw in prospect, I had manually prepared sketches starting from the put anecdotes on side and I proposed them at several institutions in order to find a patronage. As of the shortly after the forwarding of the mails, I received a call of Michael Madsen and Wilhelm Gardère who asked me to come to the Brewery, because this project interested the Prestige beer. After our meeting, I went to the Short story writer to make safe space and max Chauvet accomodated in the same way the project extremely well. It was as was born In connection with the history from Haiti, knew you that… in the last week of the month.

L.N: The first publication of the heading goes up at at the end of November 1994, and this heading thus starts its fourteenth year of publication. Which assessment could you make some?

J.L: The weekly heading continues indeed, one cannot thus speak about assessment. The reactions of the public were always positive and the chronicle is very appraisal. The beer Prestige, the Short story writer and I hold well the rigour of publication appreciated so much of the assistantship. There are also the contemporary language, the tone and the simplicity of the terms and the words, the format which tends to avoid the long flights. Even if it is about the history, there are always a sentence or a passage of the text which returns us to the economic situation of the moment; moreover, there is a certain neutrality of narration, if one can say, where whatever the ideological and policy guideline of the reader, it is found in this common value which is the history of our country.

L.N: Which is the importance of this work in a company like ours?

J.L: The Haitian pride, the Haitian heart, the national sap which connects us and connects us all, it is basically our history of people and our culture.

Contrary to the various preceding schools of thought which used the History of Haiti to fine policies, épidermiques and different, this work reports the history of Haiti in all its simplicity in what milked with a new interpretation of the historical facts at ends communicative, informative, educational, cultural. In theory, this work was to start as of the pre-school one within the framework of a real national formation. The accent is related to the small history, the anecdotic history: a small fact apparently of no importance major can reveal a characteristic, a temperament of people, information which makes it possible to clarify certain current demonstrations. It is always necessary to refer to the history to seize the origin of a phenomenon sociétal, to see what occurred thereafter, in order to include/understand the behavior present and at which level to make corrections when it is necessary. To continue >

The importance of this work is expressed by the common reader who only asks to be informed on the history of his country, by the schoolboys and the students, the teachers, the parents as well for their own information as for the duties of class of their children, by the adults in general who did not know a section of particular history or who had badly interpreted it before. Lastly, it is a very public work because of this historical communication. The Haitian attaches a great importance to his history.

L.N: Summers you satisfies?

J.L: The treated topics vary. It is the artistic part there. The four principal periods of the History of Haiti are covered: the periods Indian, Colonial, Revolutionary and Haitian. The texts which appear enjoy a certain spontaneousness; that depends on many factors: economic situation of the moment, political tempo which carts its own language and its prerogatives, of an interesting reading which deserves to be communicated, of an industrial research, a comment of somebody, importance of the recall of the dates and moments historical, etc, of any subject which draws the attention, cause a meditation where the artistic instinct is forced to be expressed through a table on a medium, in this case on black and white paper.

Sometimes, it is difficult to know which topic will be treated; sometimes a text is thoroughly prepared and, into a turn of hand, the economic situation changes and the text becomes obsolete; sometimes that falls well; sometimes it is quickly necessary to think on another more adequate subject; sometimes one does not feel at ease with the subject; nevertheless, with a certain phase, an attraction always finishes by being transformed into text or table.

Methodology is the same one: initially to view the table, to establish its data base, to make research, to start to trace the lines, to accentuate the forms, to colour them and find the good tone, to grant découlement paragraphs and to better include/understand the direction of work, to make the tests of correction, to accentuate the outstanding lines, to insist on the completion until one is satisfied and the part can be signed without forgetting to mention the priority source of the data base. From this point of view, it is as if I combed a table per week.

L.N: You have a heading with the newspaper the Short story writer and you are the author of several works in historical matter. Speak we a little Jean Ledan Fils?

J.L: Very difficult to speak about oneself, Jobnel. Apart from the weekly texts, iconographic research, and edition of works, I devote myself to my Bèljwèt company. We manufacture with the chain of the teaching wood plays for the pre-school one (until new order), we work sometimes with the handicapped people whom recommend to us the Center of Special Education, and Bèljwèt Publications publishes teaching books and books for children and adults.

L.N: Into how much volumes the series In connection with the history of Haiti is divided, you knew that… ?

J.L: The series on sale includes/understands ten volumes in the bookshops. Volume I left in December 1996 and since, each year, another volume is born.

L.N: It buckles it was buckled with volume X?

J.L: Volume X finishes the series In connection with the history of Haiti, knew you that… in what milked with the works published. The next book, moreover in preparation, will have more adapted design, another title, a new format, and should thus be more accessible to the readers and the public in general in terms of costs. The publication is planned for Livres in Madness 2008.

L.N: Which are your most pressing projects?

J.L: Good, there is so much. On the level of the publication, the preparation of the next book, the diffusion of a emission-radio weekly magazine in Creole of the texts on the history of Haiti which appear already the works published - a project with high popular range which can interest our large national companies, production of CD - Française versions and Creole of the texts, English translation of the works aiming at the Haitian diaspora including the foreign children born fathers or mothers Haitians who want to know their history, the production of CD of music of Jean Ledan (father), celebrate troubadour of the years 1950 and which fills the musical gap between the period of Molin and that of Nemours Jean-baptiste, one new pulling of the Old Port-with-Prince who is in out-of-stock condition, etc
You know, Jobnel, if one speaks about projects, I could continue thus during hours and they all are pressing.

L.N: Jean Ledan, the Short story writer thanks you for this so enthralling maintenance.

J.L: Thank you!

For the memory of the town of Saint-Marc

Serge Philippe Pierre and
Rébecca S. Gift

has just appeared, a new work of Dr. Emmanuel Pierre-Paul, “Saint-Marc, I remember it”, Tome II with Editions CIDIHCA.

The author of “Saint-Marc, I remember it”, in this second test of 311 pages, came to agitate with force the flood of the ideas and the memories which surround this city and which revive it its most exciting moments, most glorious having marked its memory. Dr. Pierre-Paul, with the idea to be made a pioneer in the revalorization of manners, wants to be to be a champion in art to paint the company of his time, through deep and nostalgic accents whose vibrations devour the entrails and the heart.

This gallery whose episodes which followed one another do not leave anything speculative attests with conviction that time never dies and that the memories are agitated, in any time, like the waves of an ocean.

As if it were today, the images of the city that Dr. Pierre-Paul revives to us through this second volume are hardly enough to uncover the nostalgic airs which get clear deeply, but subtly of its thought, of its writings.

With which humility, through 24 quite elaborate chapters and of a supported coherence, Dr. Emmanuel Pierre-Paul invites his readers to discover the various aspects which constitute the charm of its adored city. To be done, it highlights intelligentsia saint-marcoise, of the artists and craftsmen who brightened the city, the public administration, the trade, the religious life, etc To continue >

As we wrote during the publication of the first volume, “Saint-Marc, I remember it is a memorable work which will awake the nostalgia of these which knew the town of antan with its multicoloured water jets, its attractive places, its productive intellectual class, its promising youth, its plans for the future, its moments of extase, its calamities, its joys, its tears and its charm… Saint-Marc, I remember it, one lived palpitating… the time of the great virtues, the space of a completed past, a heartfelt cry launched by a citizen who cries a generation… ».

At the same time, Saint-Marc, I remember it with is crossroads, with the confluence of two rivers, like A expressed so well romantic Chateaubriand. The work is just as easily perceived like a true plea for the change, a true lawsuit of the history, a transition between the past and the future, an indictment which invites youth to begin in the fight against the advanced forfeiture that our country knows. The author exclaims:

“I repeat with the young people that between their hands rests nevertheless the fate of the Haiti, that they must choose, and quickly, for best of the two evoked ways, that of the dissension, the dilapidation, the spinelessness… and that of courage, the straightness, the patriotic pride… that it is important for it not to be more deluded by accepting for truth that a country never dies… All this is sad and hard to say and hear, but the hour sounded where it should lucidly be looked at the things as they are presented. ”

Attached viscéralement to its birthplace, Dr. Pierre-Paul, we are almost certain, could not contain its tears by writing the conclusion of the work: “I quivered while thinking of the task assigned at this beginning of millenium with these young people, badly been useful by a quasi-total absence of models, a truncated academic formation, a very blunted moral direction, an almost irreversible environmental degradation, a non-existent national production, an absence of authority, official institutions with the drift, a sovereignty… let us pass! ”

Saint-Marc, I remember it (volume 2): a work with reading, getting, a reference work, a work enriched by facts and analyses which carries out a long course through time and the ages, a work, finally, which reveals an intelligent extrapolation of last towards the future. Saint-Marc, I remember Dr. Emmanuel Pierre-Paul it… go to Poly Café on Saturday December 15 for the sale-signature.
