			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> To your pens! A one month holiday season, the start of &quot;Operation Santa&#39;s Mail&quot; was given last Tuesday. In 2010, almost 1.5 million letters were sent to Santa Claus, including 160,000 e-mails. And the 2011 starts strong. In just four days, the mailbox of the famous man in red has already approved 133,350 letters and 41,717 e-mails. Behind the scenes, the Post mobilizes sixty people to lead this very special secretariat. Some of these secretaries are volunteers assigned to the task in-house, others were recruited for the occasion. &quot;There is no particular skill to be a good secretary of Santa Claus,&quot; says one to the post office. No need to be a poet to address letters to the children, a card type they are sent.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Berlusconi has lost its absolute majority. With 308 votes, he won the vote on the technical budget Tuesday afternoon, but is found below the absolute majority of 316 votes. The opposition abstained from the vote, which allowed the coalition of Berlusconi to win a relative majority. </p>
<p> The opposition immediately demanded the resignation of Berlusconi. &quot;I ask you, Mr. Chairman, with all my might, finally taking note of this situation. We can not keep going this way. You must resign, &quot;asked solemnly Pierluigi Bersani, the leader of the opposition, after the vote. </p>
<p> Berlusconi said he would visit on Tuesday evening at the residence of President of the Republic Giorgio Napolitano. This is &quot;an exchange of views,&quot; according to a government source <a href="http://paydayintime.com">No teletrak payday loan</a><!-- . -->.Only the President may decide to appoint a new head of government or call early elections. </p>
<p> &quot;We asked him to step aside&quot; </p>
<p> Tuesday morning, the last support of Berlusconi had dropped. The head of the Northern League, Umberto Bossi, its main coalition partner, had publicly called for his resignation. &quot;We asked him to step aside,&quot; Bossi told reporters in the Chamber of Deputies. He thought however that the test vote Tuesday would pass without incident. </p>
<p> The unknown was the number of members still loyal to Berlusconi. He had to gather all right for the majority of 316 seats, yet some analysts felt that the Chairman did not have more than a hundred supporters.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> In the thorny issue of gas pricing, the Commission for Energy Regulation (CRE) wants to make its voice heard. In early October, the policeman made a sector review (Advisory) negative impact on the government&#39;s decision to freeze gas prices, finding an increase inevitable. Today, the CRE takes a stir throughout the report, submitted to the government, the procurement costs of GDF Suez. </p>
<p> In this paper, Le Figaro that was provided, the controller gives the whole device flat regulated prices. He would like to begin this system to be deleted for Industrialists. Not only France is an exception, but most large companies feed on the market today and therefore spend regulated tariffs.These two reasons argue for a quick exit with respect to the CRE. </p>
<p> With regard to the regulated rates for individuals, the regulator is pushing for major reform. In the background, the benefit to the consumer. The CRE has accounts: only lower taxes compared to other European countries means that the regulated prices of gas in France is attractive. Otherwise, the costs of the molecule fall within the upper range in Europe. In the event of a removal of regulated prices, also under review, the regulator said that &quot;a reflection on the evolution of social systems face the problem of cost of energy supply&quot; should be conducted to help households more modest <a href="http://pay-day-loans-4all.com">easy pay day loans</a><!-- . -->. </p>
<p> Market price
<p> Meanwhile, the CRE would like the formula incorporates a larger share of price indexation market.They are currently cheaper than the cost of long-term supply imported into France and indexed on oil. This index accounts for 90% of the price fixing. The CRE wants this share declined to 70%. Currently, there is a difference of 5 euros per megawatt hour (MWh) between market prices and long-term contracts. In early 2010, he was over 10 euros. </p>
<p> The CRE, which found that GDF Suez manages its supply portfolio globally, recommends that this optimization is more beneficial to the consumer. Therefore &quot;an expansion of the scope of supply included in calculating the costs covered by regulated tariffs.&quot; In addition to the increased use of market prices, the regulator stressed the importance of liquefied natural gas (LNG), for whom Europe is a natural outlet. </p>
<p> These tracks will be reviewed by the government.They, who know that long-term contracts often protect the abrupt fluctuations, will also decide on the pace, currently quarterly review of gas prices. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Sales of the Apple iPhone 4S could be banned in France. Because Samsung decided to hit hard by attacking the latest addition to his great rival before the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Paris. Its angle of attack: Apple uses the patent in which the 3G Samsung claims authorship. Within months, the competition between the two champions of consumer electronics has turned into a war around the intellectual property in the design, screens or components. A total of 19 trials between them in the courts around the world. Apple has fired the first, last April. Until then, lawyers had saved Cupertino Samsung, their main supplier of components.After initially arches his back, Samsung-attack against Apple has banned the sale of its tablet Galaxy Tab in Germany, the Netherlands and Australia. </p>
<p> The challenge? Nothing less than domination of world markets for smartphones and tablets. In this war, patents have become high-tech weapons. &quot;We are committed to defending what is ours,&quot; said Tim Cook, Apple&#39;s boss, to justify its legal offensive. An argument that still does not convince experts in the field. &quot;This kind of confrontation usually results from financial transactions or licensing agreements,&quot; says Marina Cousté, a partner in ReedSmith. </p>
<p> Faced with this new situation, companies are reviewing their strategy. Patent portfolios are now bought at exorbitant prices. Last August, Google has spent 12.5 billion dollars to get their hands on Motorola.A transaction whose main interest is based on the 17,000 patents owned by the mobile manufacturer. Other operation iconic, the acquisition of Nortel&#39;s 6000 patent by a group of business settings such as Apple, Microsoft and RIM to $ 4.5 billion. $ 750,000 is the average patent! &quot;Be careful, warns Marina Cousté, the risk of bubble the value of patents should not be dismissed.&quot; </p>
<p> Real rents
<p> Patent holders are sitting on a pile of gold. They seek to enhance their capital. This is the case of Kodak, in great difficulty in cameras, which seeks to monetize its patents. There plans to sell a thousand. On Monday, the U.S. announced a licensing agreement with Imax, on 50 patents for the large screen. </p>
<p> Finally, the sale is a licensed real cash for some companies.In France, Technicolor (formerly Thomson) is a national champion figure of the genre. &quot;The business license is an asset firm with a rich portfolio of patents on the technologies of sound and image,&quot; argues Technicolor. In total, the license agreements reported 447 million in French in 2010, 12.5% ​​of its turnover. Philips and Sony, the holders of licenses in the field of DVD players, are contrary to dry up this source of income. The Blu-ray could have been an additional resource. But the dematerialization of content paves the way for other families of patents. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> European politicians finally seem on the verge of their act together on the Greek case and the measures to try to resist contagion. The prospect of a consensus at the summit of October 23 has heightened expectations of financial marcéhs Wednesday. </p>
<p> The signal came from Paris, where the government is out of the woods on the delicate issue of recapitalizing banks with public funds. &quot;We have no doubt about the strength of French banks but there is turbulence in financial markets that cause the increase of capital of European banks has become a necessity,&quot; conceded Valérie Pécresse, Minister for the Budget and is speaking for the government. </p>
<p> If Bercy always prefers a recapitalization by the &quot;private capital&quot;, the Minister acknowledged that France was willing to inject itself of public money to support its banks.But only &quot;if necessary, ultimately,&quot; insists on all sides. Still, Paris is on the side of Germany, who suspected her of wanting rather to apply the European Stability Fund (EFSF), to avoid jeopardizing its AAA. Now for Berlin, there is no question that States have the means to put themselves out to the pocket have had recourse to the help system mutusalisée what the Fund. &quot;The EFSF can lend to some countries who need loans to recapitalize their banking system, France will not appeal there,&quot; committed Valérie Pécresse. If banks do not hammer need to be recapitalized, the French government, however, stand ready, in case &#8230; </p>
<p> Paris is therefore close to Berlin. And position strangely similar to that outlined Wednesday by José Manuel Barroso.Calling for a &quot;fully coordinated approach,&quot; the President of the European Commission has called on banks to beef up their capital &quot;temporarily&quot; but &quot;emergency&quot;. Private funds, public money or relief of EFSF, that each country is doing: Europe is the strength of its banking system can no longer be doubted. </p>
<p> 30% to 60% discount
<p> For this, the European banking supervisor is the maneuver. According to the Financial Times, the European Banking Authority will impose a hard capital ratio of 9%, a considerable jump from 5% who had served as a reference during stress tests in July. All, by mid-2012. But the effort goes further. The supervisor collects the latest encryption on sovereign debt portfolios of the banks to deduct equity securities on these discounts applied by the markets.</p>
<p> If the bank building is now consensus among European politicians is that a taboo is jumping, that of non-payment of Greece. Of course, nothing is official act. But when Barroso calls for &quot;decisive action on Greece&quot; to qd&#39;assurer the viability of the Greek economy is emerging between the lines a massive debt waiver. Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou does not hide the power struggle in which he was hired: &quot;We negotiate every day to reduce this debt.&quot; Of &quot;responsible for the euro area&quot; quoted by Reuters are considering the possibility of a cross on 30% to 50% of Greek debt.The President of the Eurogroup, Jean-Claude Juncker, has even mentioned a discount of more than 60% earlier in the week before his entourage back-pedal. </p>
<p> For now, banks consider in their accounts that they must give up 21% of their claims of Athens, in accordance with the agreement of July 21. It is to be able to take the shock of restructuring more violent they are asked to display ratios above reproach. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> &quot;The news of my death are greatly exaggerated,&quot; joked Steve Jobs when Bloomberg had his obituary published in error in August 2008. Nevertheless: the stock market, Apple had lost the title on the day 2.42%. </p>
<p> Announced tonight the death of the charismatic leader will Apple does the same concerns in the markets? It is no surprise to Apple&#39;s shareholders. The charismatic leader had prepared his departure, giving the reins of his company to Tim Cook. But his death marks indeed the end of an era for the firm at the apple. </p>
<p> In exchange, if Apple has lost 1.31% to 279.25 euros on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, the stock has limited the damage in New York, falling 0.23% to 377.37 dollars after gaining 1% in first exchanges. </p>
<p> The title after the stand 4S iPhone
<p> Steve Jobs as a CEO was not like the others.Associated with the image of the company he co-founded, he was also in stock. Apple has become the first in the world market capitalization, elbow to elbow with Exxon Mobil <a href="http://payday-loans-cheap.com">pay day loans</a><!-- . -->. </p>
<p> As Steve Jobs made Apple, Steve Jobs&#39;s health was reflected in the title. Suffering from cancer since 2004, the group leader had to leave several times, until he left there just over a month, on August 25. Each announcement related to his health problems, the markets feared for the future of the group and the title suffered large fluctuations. </p>
<p> Two days ago, the title fell by 5% during the session along with the presentation of the 4S iPhone. The latest version of Apple&#39;s flagship phone, slightly different from the previous one, was disappointed the markets, hoping to iPhone 5.But the title was returned to the balance at the end of the session and finished on a moderate loss of 0.56% to 372.50 dollars. Sign that investors want to believe in the capacity of Tim Cook to keep the group at the top. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> While the French government is trying to accept a tax on sodas, Denmark chooses to go further. The country became on Saturday the world&#39;s first to introduce a tax on fat. Presented as a measure to fight against obesity, it will increase the prices of 16 kroner (2.15 euros) per kilogram of saturated fat. Example: the price of a brick of butter 250 grams, which would contain 63% saturated fatty acids, would increase by nearly 3 crowns (about 40 euro cents). The tax will apply to all products containing more than 2.3% of fatty acids: the meat through butter oil, cheeses, creams and processed products. </p>
<p> Anticipating the new, the Danes have rushed into their supermarkets this week to refuel.&quot;We had to stock tons of butter and margarine to be able to serve our customers,&quot; says Soeren Joergensen, a group leader dairy Arla Distribution. &quot;The week was rather chaotic, with lots of empty shelves. People filled their freezers, &quot;says Christian Jensen also responsible for a independent supermarket in Copenhagen. </p>
<p> An &quot;administrative nightmare&quot;
<p> While retailers are rubbing their hands, business is gray mine. The Confederation of Danish Industries (DI) is even talk of an &quot;administrative nightmare&quot; <a href="http://payday-nofax.com">no faxing payday loan</a><!-- . -->. The products are imported or Danish manufacturing, it will indeed ask for statements to producers on the amount of saturated fat in the product but also used in its preparation.Similarly, updating of computer systems has required many hours of overtime for producers and retailers. &quot;All this has a cost that will be passed on to consumers,&quot; warns Gitte Hestehave, spokesman for the DI. &quot;I doubt this will have a positive impact on health, it is simply an additional tax,&quot; she adds. </p>
<p> For its part, the European Commission said &quot;monitor&quot; the introduction of this tax &quot;to be sure she does not create barriers to trade&quot; within the European Union. Indeed, when the fat content of an imported product is not sufficiently indicated, Denmark reserves the right to impose a flat fee plus importer. This could push them to move away from products from other Member States where the reference to amounts of saturated fat is not required.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Sharp put on Orange and the French market to go back to the conquest of Europe. France is deemed to be the European country most fond of new technologies. What motivated this choice. The Aquos is available in Orange stores and online from October 6. It should be available from 199 euros (with an offer to pay 100 euros) with a subscription Origami Star 3 hours (59 euros per month). Without a subscription, it is much more expensive: 639 euros. </p>
<p> Delicate challenge
<p> For Sharp, the bet is tricky. This is not to be the nth smartphone on the European market, running Android market segment dominated by Korean and Chinese brands. To differentiate themselves, the Japanese put on the 3D display of the phone. While it is the third, after LG and HTC to offer a device with such a characteristic. But only the Aquos almost instantly converts 2D images into 3D <a href="http://businesscardsabc.com">personal business card</a><!-- . -->.It is also equipped with two optical, which can take photos or videos in 3D and then watch them on their smartphone, or share them on other screens in relief. </p>
<p> Abandonment of the shelf
<p> On a strategic decision to Sharp raises some questions. The brand has announced the abandonment of its shelf Galapagos there just two weeks. But it also reflects the key role of the smartphone market for players in consumer electronics. To exist, they can not do without. Even if only a very symbolic presence. Orange has only ordered 10,000 copies of the Aquos, probably made prudent by the very small success of the 3D Optimus LG and HTC Evo 3D. Sharp will make us forget the bad reputation of free 3D, even on small screen, according to users, giving a headache and seasickness </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> France Loisirs, a leading book distributors in France, sold to Bertelsmann in the spring by a U.S. investment fund, diversifying its activities. Reportedly, the group plans to launch its own brand of mobile phone: Mobile France Loisirs. For this, it should ally with small low-cost operator Zero package, which will assume all the technical and commercial. </p>
<p> With its 4 million members and its 210 shops, France Loisirs seek to win customers from 50,000 to 70,000 in the first year. It would start with four cheap, discount deals, including allowing unlimited calls to three favorite numbers, an option that is disappearing from traditional packages. </p>
<p> Warranty Information
<p> More original, France Loisirs Mobile should offer the rental of the phone for a few euros a month.An innovative package developed by Zero: instead of buying a mobile phone and to be committed in consideration 24 months, the idea is to rent it for a few euros a month. What interest? First, the rental of mobile allows access to telephones that would be too expensive, sold &quot;naked&quot;, without subsidies. Second, in case of failure, the phones are guaranteed defective and replaced.A formula in which the small operator firmly believes that while the offers low-cost non-binding and without subsidy multiply on the market. </p>
<p> After this first contract with France Loisirs, Zero package, which aims to become the &quot;first mobile white label&quot; could sign with other partners, including a television and an insurance group who dream each to have their brand of mobile phone. </p>
