Greece remains a popular summer destination

Posted by admin on August 13th, 2011

The fall of 6.9% of GDP in the second quarter is not for nothing. While the empty streets of Athens with the approach of August 15, the Greeks are reluctant to take a vacation. According to a survey by the Consumers' Association, six out of ten Greeks will not go this year because of the crisis. Specifically, "46% do not go a week, and only 5% will go over two days," Gianna Karatyni analysis of the Consumers' Association. "Morale is not, but the wallet either. Now the Greeks think twice before leaving, especially when the price of ferry tickets, for example to go to Crete for a family of four with a car, is 600 euros, one quarter of household earnings. A luxury, "she says.

Yet the absence of the Greeks is not visible on the beaches of the islands of the Aegean Sea. And for good reason, this summer, tourists from around the world flock by the thousands.Travel agencies estimate that 20% increase in bookings compared to 2010. "The French are fighting the same record," adds Theodore Chartomatsidis, director of the Hellenic Tourism Office in Paris: "Applications abound every day with our services. The numbers prove it. There is, for now, an increase of at least 28% of French tourists in Greece this year, "says he. "That means they could exceed one million visitors, a figure that was the goal for three years. It is therefore encouraging because with few means of promotion, we have shown that there is another Greek than the economic crisis, like the food for example No teletrak payday loan. The French responded immediately, in solidarity, above all, "he adds.

A safer country as Tunisia and Egypt

In the port of Piraeus, boats, coming and going in the islands of the Aegean Sea, are met.Karine, a French tourist, who came with family, preparing to embark for the island of Kalymnos in the Dodecanese. Impressed by the number of travelers, she concluded that ultimately the economy will be beneficial to Greece: "I think people, especially the French, were frightened by the situation in Tunisia or Egypt. Greece remains a safe country, to which is attached without really knowing him. The holidays are enjoyable, even if sometimes small strikes, "said she. Like many tourists, Karine does not hide his desire to acquire a small house overlooking the sea "if prices fall with the crisis," she says. The property prices have not fallen but never mind, for some tourists, there is an incentive to come back next year.

The Greeks do not let themselves down so far.Some invade the beaches near the capital, while others go for short-haul and less expensive way, almost 30% of Greeks went beyond their prejudices to enjoy the beaches and rates of neighboring Albania.

"SPECIAL – Greece, a challenge for Europe

The euro area off the Greek fire

Posted by admin on July 23rd, 2011

To save its common currency, Europe is the part of the fire. The seventeen countries of the euro have violated a prohibition group, assuming the risk of a possible partial collapse of Greece. But national leaders have also pushed their own taboos in order to restore confidence and resolder the team in front of the fire.

The Brussels summit, cleared the day before by a dinner at three in Berlin, saw everyone had a role. Jean-Claude Trichet, haughty guardian of monetary orthodoxy, has reluctantly accepted the possibility of a "default" of Greece, even if he believes will be averted. Nicolas Sarkozy rempoché its bank tax – a project specifically designed to avoid trial in Athens of bankruptcy, albeit limited. Angela Merkel pays back.She agrees to substantially beef up the European bailout fund of indebted countries, ignoring the doubts that undermine his coalition in Berlin. And it sends a "very big thank you" to his interlocutors.

Unexpected, even courageous, the device stopped Thursday night is also a leap into the unknown. The danger was that the shock wave feared a possible default "selective" in Athens come sweeping new defenses in the euro area. The Head of State has carefully avoided the word "default" but he assured that the euro area lavish in time "all the necessary guarantees." Encouragingly, the agreement was welcomed Thursday by a rising euro and a market rebound.

Reduce the debt burden

By sacrificing a principle, the summit also seeks to limit the contagion. "What we do for Greece, we will not do for any other country," warns Nicolas Sarkozy.The summit's final declaration said that "Greece is in a unique situation of gravity in the euro area (…) Therefore it requires an exceptional solution." In contrast, the other 16 euro countries "reaffirm their inflexible determination to honor their individual signature" loan. No way to drift to other parts of the chain, such as Portugal and Ireland have a drip European, or like Spain and Italy regularly shaken up the markets.

For Greece, the immediate objective is to reduce the debt burden by involving banks and private equity funds. "This is to address the root of the problem" of insolvency, said Angela Merkel. The summit adopted a "menu of options," modeled on the plan proposed by the international financial community.It was also shown Thursday in Brussels by Baudouin Prot, Director General of BNP Paribas, and Josef Ackermann, head of Deutsche Bank. Voluntarily, but under strong pressure, banks must give up some money owed to them, particularly in France and Germany. Financially, the most dramatic innovation is the green light to EFSF to "intervene in the secondary market" in the clear to buy back government debt to investors. In the case of Greece, Ireland and Portugal, it would relieve the banks that hold securities impaired.

158 billion euros

Seventeen of the two, however, establish safeguards. The one at the request of Jean-Claude Trichet as the ECB will return to establish a priori the "exceptional circumstances".The other at the request of Angela Merkel, as the green light is given "by mutual agreement" of members of the rescue fund. This leaves almost a right of veto in Berlin, leaving no question of a European institution to have its way of guarantees provided by Germany

The summit amounted to 109 billion euros the amount of public funding in the second bailout of Athens. Taking into account the participation of the private bill climbs to 158 billion euros. The IMF confirmed its contribution in the evening, without specifying the amount. As expected, the euro area has decided to extend for 7.5 years "to a minimum of 15 years and up to 30 years' duration of its loans to countries in need. Meanwhile, the interest rate will be reduced to 3.5%. The summit finally evokes "a comprehensive strategy for growth and investment" in favor of Greece, through the European Structural Funds.He renounced the baptized "Marshall Plan" European and still has to quantify.

Cerutti, "TF1 does not put me pressure"

Posted by admin on July 7th, 2011

On July 7, Vincent Cerutti present the second issue of "Sosie Sosie or not" in prime time on TF1. A vote of confidence granted by the private channel to its new host, after a first edition earlier this year. Readily compared to "Surprise of making" the show had launched Marcel Béliveau in 1989 in France, "Sosie Sosie or not" brought 5.2 million viewers on 1 January (23.8% audience share ). "This proves that the concept pleases, said Vincent Cerutti. The difference with "taking on Surprise" is that it is no longer the stars who get trapped, but the stars who, in a role against type, trap and anonymous. " Three programs are planned this summer, 9, 16 and July 23 in prime time, with about twenty guests in total.Whether TF1 wants to make a recurring issue, "it depends figures and viewers," concedes the presenter, who denies receiving any pressure or targets to hearing from the chain. Maybe TF1 wants to install a new brand with this program, at least we'll try, "says he.

Earlier this year, who made his debut on TNT channel local TV Le Mans (LM TV), was screened at the presentation of the new program flow TF1, "Dancing with the Stars" alongside Sandrine Quétier. A strategic project for the chain after the end of "Star Academy". Despite a change in leadership programs, "the second season will take place in a few months, said Vincent Cerutti, although I can not tell you when and with what celebrities."

An entertainment magazine on the family in the study

Within six months, the young leader would be poised to confirm that, in its search for new faces, TF1 made him the right choice. Also not impossible that we find in other programs guaranteed high risk personal loans. "A magazine of entertainment is also being studied or for the prime-time, or to a second part of the evening. It would be a show about family life, and a pilot has been shot, "he says.

At a time when most television hosts are also producers, Vincent Cerutti has no plans for now to give in to these sirens. "Producing? Maybe one day, but it is not relevant. My priority is simple: lead and present programs as can Jean-Pierre Foucault. "In 2006, the leader had created his company, Press'Agrum Productions (which no longer exists as such), who has produced "You had your fill! "For SM TV. "It allowed me to present for four years a 90-minute talk show, where I received the guests as diverse as Marc Levy, Michèle Cotta or Jean d'Ormesson." The new host of advanced TF1 also the importance of this type of experience and regional media. "The local DTT channels are like the radio in the 1980s. These are laboratories that allow leaders and journalists of tomorrow to form. It is important to try to keep them even if they suffer a lot economically. "

This summer, Vincent Cerutti will also be broadcast on RTL, for the second consecutive summer. He replaces Vincent Perrot at the helm of "Stop or" every weekend, from 9:30 to 11:30.As in 2010, it will also be with Jean-Sébastien Petitdemange, this time for "Journey of a spoiled listener" on Saturday from 13:30 to 15:00, starting July 16. For those who started on the radio, should be seen as a harbinger of any lasting return on the air? Why not. "I speak with my manager Gerard Louvin," concedes the moderator.

Divorce and life insurance taxed more

Posted by admin on June 30th, 2011

From 1 January 2012, the right to share from 1.1% to 2.5%. Thus decided on Wednesday the deputies and senators met in joint committee (CMP) to find a definitive agreement on tax reform heritage.

This measure is not trivial. For divorcing couples and share their property must pay this right to share, whatever their matrimonial regime. This tax is also due by the heirs, at the distribution of the estate, and at an inter vivos gift (for donations reinstated earlier this occasion).

With this increase, the state will recover about 300 million euros, mainly at the expense of 130,000 new annual divorced. So, a couple who owns property, net of debt, must pay 300,000 euros to 7500 euros right to share next year.If he had divorced this year, his bill would have been only 3300 euros. Problem: the reform of the ISF was supposed to be financed by the wealthy … "I can not find normal tax increase during a difficult time of life," said Benoit Renaud, president of the Superior Council of Notaries. This increase in risk-sharing law to push further the heirs to remain undivided and discourage donations sharing. At the risk of creating conflicts in the future. Finally, it is not impossible that many divorced choosing to sell their property and to divide "sneak" the money, without an act of sharing history to evade taxes.

In addition, the CMP identified in 20% to 25% inheritance of life, are transmitted to beyond 902,838 euros per unit, after deduction of 152,500 euros. And validated the smoothing mechanism for donations.The government increased from six to ten years the time between donations, or between a gift and an estate eligible for tax relief. To mitigate the shock of the transition from six to ten years, MPs and senators, have developed a system for smoothing. The Senate was selected CMP. Specifically, the deduction on the value of the donation will be 10% for a donation of six years old, 20% for a donation of seven years old, 30% for a donation from eight years and 40% for a donation dating back nine years.

The agreement on the tax measures found in the CMP must still be approved by the Assembly and the Senate in session July 5. However, this validation should not be a problem.

Apple revolution icloud

Posted by admin on June 6th, 2011

Monday night, Steve Jobs must have Apple's service icloud. Using a deal with record companies, the Cupertino company will upgrade its online music service iTunes. Customers can purchase their music from Apple's online store and listen to their wishes, where they are. The service called "cloud computing, or cloud computing, grow fast. This is a new revolution in computing. It is to connect to the Internet to access data and applications. Individuals no longer need to store on their PC or hard drive at home, and businesses no longer need to invest in high-performance computers.

The computer then used to open the application as a water faucet or turn on a light.Apple already offers a first service "cloud" to synchronize the network, contacts, emails and diary, from an iPhone or an iPad. The MobileMe service is very expensive (99 dollars or 79 euros per year from France).

Amazon has shown the way

Google will launch this summer the free operating system for PCs, Chrome OS, designed and filmed for the cloud. "The biggest users of cloud services are already without knowing it, individuals using tools such as Gmail or Google pay services data storage from Amazon," said Lew Tucker, Director Technical cloud at Cisco.With his offensive, Apple created a new front against Google, Amazon and Microsoft.

One of the largest global provider of cloud services Amazon is the world leader in cultural services in line with an estimated turnover in this area at one billion dollars in 2010. The original idea of ​​the champion of e-commerce, which has expanded its services to music storage for individuals, was to lease excess capacity of its own "farms" of computers. "It comes down to your apartment when it is empty during the workday and when you go on vacation," says one expert. All the giants of the Web follow the lead of Amazon. In economic terms, the marginal cost is low for providers of computing power and storage capacity pay day advance. The additional revenue generated almost as much profit.For ten years, computer manufacturers, software publishers and computer services companies dream of a paradigm shift.

56 billion market

With the development of the Internet and especially because of the economic crisis, companies have converted to cloud computing. "After years of germination, cloud computing takes off. Partly for macroeconomic reasons. The crisis led all organizations to scrutinize their spending. In this context, a solution which can offer more for less is difficult to ignore, "says Ben Pring, vice president of research firm Gartner. For now, most of the market is done by software. The turnover of the software on demand is estimated around $ 11.7 billion in 2010 by Forrester Research. Today, 60% of worldwide turnover is made in the United States.But the phenomenon should spread to other countries. By 2020, the worldwide market will reach $ 56 billion, says Forrester Research.

Finally, Microsoft will invest 90% of its budget on R & D in the cloud this year, said Jean-Philippe Courtois, senior vice president of Microsoft. But its sales in the area is estimated at "several hundred million dollars a year," admits a group leader. Each offers its solution. IBM, HP, Dell, Microsoft and Oracle want to use huge "farms" of servers to store and rent computing power to their customers. To this end, HP and Dell have acquired companies in the storage and data virtualization, in order to compete with VMware, a subsidiary of EMC.The market also attracts telecom giants like Cisco, Ericsson and Huawei, and specific actors, such as Akamai, Rackspace Hosting or Salesforce.

Judging probable restructuring of the country's sovereign debt, Moody's downgraded three notches the rating of the country, pushing further into the speculative grade. For its part, Spain has managed to raise 3.953 billion euros of bonds 3 and 4 years on the market but, despite strong demand, the rates reflected on the rise.

In this context, risk-taking are not numerous. The activity is minimal anyway since France, Ascension Thursday is a holiday. It has traded about 2.5 billion euros on the CAC on Thursday.
