Retaining Wall Cost Estimation

Niamey-Cotonou


Last week Mary and I went to spend a week in Cotonou, Benin. Cotonou-Niamey: 1000 km. Without cars, we opted for the bus is cheaper than flying and it saves us an overnight stopover at an airport. As I'm sure you envy us, I'll try to live closer to our trip.
Get up first at 3 o'clock in the morning to be sure to be on time for the bus. Take a brief breakfast. At 4 hours, you're ready. Wait half an hour. Then another. Go, mégotons do not, wait another hour. That is, missing the driver arrived. (I do not know why, whenever I take a bus, I stand at this time knowing full well that never, ever, does the bus leave on time).
's go! Sit on your chair, facing a wall. Move closer to the wall until your back straight the record button and your knees touch the wall. That's it, you can not make moves back and forth? So you can drive now.
Unfortunately, your record does not rise to the head, I'm afraid to sleep, he fault hang your head forward or backward. I know, both are uncomfortable, it will however have to make a choice at some point. The alternation is in my opinion the best compromise we lean neck forward, you try to doze off, and five minutes later, as it hurts a little, you lean back.
If it's cold outside, open the window without too much to cover, and wait three hours sitting on your chair, tight, and do not overdress. A window to the front of the bus is broken, the wind blows, and you pull away the little you had, and this despite while the cold season, 15 in the morning.
After three hours passed, close the window. Put two sweaters, and turn the heating up. The cold season only for the morning. The day he made his usual 30 °. Alas, the broken window does not bring you more wind because a lot of people are assembled and moved into the aisle, allowing both to block the wind and warm comfortable atmosphere. Note that you're still happy you are sitting on a seat. You are also still happy not to be right next to the broken window. You are left for two hours until the end of the good road. You do not know yet, but you have eaten your bread white. Once these two o'clock, you will have the right to stand up to stretch your legs.
It is 11 hours. Pumped up by the 5-minute break, you're ready to tackle more. Anyway, you do that for up to 18 hours. To attack the wrong road, one with holes, you'll need a sidekick. It is instructed to grow unexpectedly to the right or left, at varying intervals ranging from 5 to 20 seconds. Warning, this sidekick must be clever enough you believe that you will pay, but actually, no, it was just an impression. This sidekick is also sometimes lift you up or you push forward. This is where the sweater you brought will save your knees, tuck it between your knees and the wall, it will mitigate the impact.
The trouble is with the sidekick, you can not read or sleep, and this for a few hours. Continue up to 18 hours, the low end of the day of arrival, stretch your legs every 3 hours, 15 minutes at lunchtime, plus a short walk of 5 minutes to cross the no- man's-land of the border. Sometimes your sidekick you should stop shaking for a quarter of an hour, and then must start over.
At 18 hours, you remember that you started late, and you agree resigned to the fact that your arrival time will be closer to the high end you are given, or 21 hours.
At 21 hours, get up and purchase of rice with sauce, and get the idea that this is not always in Cotonou, but a city name in Parakou you arrive. The information you glean here and there are grim: the new range of arrival time between 3 pm and 5 am. Put water to boil, it will humidify the air: you are in Benin, the temperature will not drop really, but it will be wet. Sigh before you seated back exactly as you've been sitting all day.
The advantage now is that tired, pain in the neck do you wake up at intervals over a bit longer, of about every 10 minutes or even every quarter of an hour. To ease your nerves, you have the right to insult yourself in the driver who took a wrong turn, or the police or customs or I-don't-know-who bear a uniform is wait for the bus, thus delaying the arrival time. Please note, your sidekick does not go to sleep, he continues to shake you.
At five o'clock, you have the right to shed a few tears and realize you have not arrived, but the good news is that your sidekick has finished its work. Stop making assumptions about the arrival time, it is useless, you will arrive when you arrive.
At seven o'clock in the morning, get up, you're in Cotonou, we even come pick you up. You sleep all day, then you try to make you the idea that 5 days later, it will again in the opposite direction.


PS: To be entirely fair, it will change a little back: the file will mount up to your head, allowing you to doze off, and you shall stay in your chair until 21 hours. However, it will pass and you get a disc of Christmas songs including Oh Tanenbaum and the Ave Maria de Luis Mariano (yes, really).

CGT delegation reads the following motion of the CGT federation of trade:

"The CGT would like to remind once again that nothing can justify not taking into early account of the precautionary principle, in terms of health risks as well as psycho-social and degradation of family life undoubtedly generated by the project "operational mode" for the scheduling system: 2h/9h - 7h/15h - 15h/23h as advocated by the Carrefour Hyper France.

Refusal to vote	2 (CGT)

CGT delegation has read the following statement to justify his vote ;:

"While the report previously requested by the firm Carrefour Ariane was surrounded by uncertainty, the comparative results with the old system is already showing many negative points

to be particularly vigilant and other items to be "absolutely changed."

blocking employees in time slots with repetitive work will lead to the de-classification of tasks and will pose risks to the health of the employees concerned.

Numerous studies and statistics showing more and more the negative impact of night work for employees, such as the recent Economic Report of the EESC (the Economic Social and Environmental) from July 2010 concerning the dangers of night work on both employee health (ulcers, hypertension, cancer, ...) on the disruption of family life that it engenders. The findings of the report of the EESC is logical to ask the leaders to limit and restrict as much as possible the night work.

It may be noted that the Code of Labour's attitude to work at night like a particular track to be used as part of a compelling economic activity that Carrefour could not justify until now. Carrefour can not claim to be a public service emergency.

Given all these considerations concerning the health of employees the CGT has no choice but to refuse to rule and calls for the withdrawal pure and simple business model.

The CGT said on the other hand it will initiate any action it deems necessary to counter this. "

 Information about deploying EVOLUPRO for the session 2010/2011 :

The speaker of the direction this project based on the agreements NAO.

Approval	0
Forbearance	17 (FGTA-FO)
Against	3 (2 + 1 CGT CFDT)

CGT delegation justified its vote by the following statement:

"86% of part-timers are women, remains to be defined in this figure in Women's share of voluntary part-time.

On average a woman earns less than her male colleague.

A glaring inequality of treatment if one can not say that there is no equal work, equal pay for Carrefour.

Table of earning bands speaks for itself, more pay, the less there is of women. .

Note that in the 10 highest salaries, one woman only.

We also note that 28% of women in management.

CGT wonders, how and by what means can we move towards a better workplace equality, a better equality of opportunity for women to enable employees of the store gain access to positions of responsibility can be more fulfilling but also better paid, Level 3 to coaching?

CGT, as he found many disparities or inequalities, both in terms of employment, the training compensation, gives us an unfavorable opinion. "

The opportunity for representatives of USM to denounce "big gaps in social legislation" which leave too much flexibility for corporate leaders, governors who are ignoring the non-implementation of laws, destruction of wages in Monaco company for more than ten years or the policy of reducing social security contributions, leaving more money in the coffers of the rulers. A new mobilization, which by its magnitude, shows that for those who work, Monaco is not necessarily the paradise which the Principality wage would sometimes give the impression ...

OF IGNITION DELAY IN CROSSROADS FOR THE PLANET OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEETING

14/11/10 7:53 p.m.

The new Carrefour is delayed

The deployment of the new design Planet is postponed to the second half of 2011.

Planet the new Carrefour hypermarket concept has the ignition delay. Reportedly, his deployment, which should reinvigorate sales of the largest stores in the distributor, will not start before the end of the first half of 2011 and at a faster slower than expected.
September 16, during the presentation of Planet to investors, the Carrefour management had spoken to deploy "rapid", with five openings planned in France before the end of the year, in addition to the pilot stores opened in September Vénissieux and Ecully, near Lyon. But the holiday season is crucial for the sign and not conducive to starting work, several changes have been postponed. "The position of management is constantly evolving," says Serge Corfa, national delegate CFDT. Between conversion to the new concept and the establishment of a new work organization, they do want is us panic. "
By the beginning of 2013, 500 stores are planned transformations in Europe (France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Greece). According to the catchment areas, restructuring will be more or less heavy. 245 hypermarkets, representing 70% of sales in Western Europe, must pass under the Carrefour Planet. The other 255 will retain their current banner but will adopt some "bricks" of the new concept. The invoice for Carrefour amount to 1.5 billion euros, representing an average cost of 4.2 million for each store Planet.

Doubt image price

In France, hypermarkets, 203 to 230 company-owned, 120 are eligible for the new concept multi-specialist. As expected, it is the largest (over 8000 m²) in urban areas are targeted. A list of 70 stores to turn over eighteen months has been disclosed in early November, but it is not said that 50 others are converted.
Internally, rumors about the divergent performance Planet "good", according to some "mixed" for others. Analysis of the first results depends on the rest of the program. Or relevance the new concept is compelling and deployment can be fast, or we need to correct the copy and things may take longer.
According to independent consultant Frank Rosenthal, "there is also a big doubt about the price image conveyed by Planet consideration for a better shopping experience but sensitive issue in the current economic climate."
The magnitude of the task has already pushed back the leadership on the implementation of the new "business model", another site that should be initiated at the end of this year, pushed back to late 2011. No doubt the issue of Planet - "reinventing the hypermarket to create value "- is a priority. The 500 European hypermarkets
referred weigh 40% of Carrefour's global sales, 37 billion euros. The transformation of the park is supposed to allow by 2015 a sales increase of 18% and an improvement in operating margin to 5.3% of sales against 3.5% in 2009.

Arise, Alexander

Wie gehts?


In Niger for at least three years, I decided to learn a local language, one that speaks most to Niamey, zharma. My ambition is, as quickly as possible, understand the conversations around me, whether to participate. This is, frankly not really a need since everyone speaks French, but I think it will be useful when, in my future life in New York or London or even to Tours, I would meet a Nigerian. Hello! And the family? And health? Can you tell me where is the 5th Avenue, where-you-please? To learn
two strategies. The first was given to me by a Nigerian, and is to sit on a bench in the street, with people who are there, and let things come. The second is more common, it is enroll in courses zharma to go, and do homework between classes. I chose the second because it's easier, or more Western, I do not know.
These courses take place in the most banal of all. The teacher is nice and warm, she explains things, gives you the vocabulary, grammar point (the zharma grammar is not complicated issue, especially if you stop five minutes and you compare it with the French grammar) . And then whenever we gauntlets as knowledge in small conversation style fly high I'm Basil, I'm 26 and I wear socks black. It's relaxed, there is no issue, things are gradually returning and you realize shortly after people you meet on the street in zharma when you got to squeeze the sentence you have learned. It's not so easy, it takes very special circumstances to talk about your socks.
But now, we do not draw a line under their past like that. From the moment the teacher, quite naturally, begins to ask how it is called zharma well being told patiently every week, I suddenly lost 15 years and earns the same time an uncontrolled anxiety. Here I am returned to college, and I do not want to return. It is Monday morning, 8.30 am, the German teacher asks us questions, namely, and I have not done my homework. I do not understand what she said to me, and I see his head should have understood. I'm bewildered glances, I'm sweating happily, she thought me repeat the question more slowly and louder, nothing comes out. However, I tried to learn the vocabulary, not to brutalize me because I was still a profound lack of interest towards anything that was not French, but still, I tried. Only when sitting for twenty minutes before your vocabulary list that you can not remember a single word about the five you had to learn, and this word is so precious and so fragile, you will have forgotten within one hour follow, there is no need to persevere. It is better to give up, do not worry if languages are not for you, you moultes equally interesting qualities, such as that of a very good cook pâtés. It has nothing to do, I know, but we must take people as a whole, there are people piano virtuosos, others are very strong in ship models. The first gift that I have mentioned is more socially accepted than the latter is true, but I try to prove the superiority of mastering the piano on that of the model. Oh and stop interrupting me, I did not finish.
Soon, the 6th, in the second hour of class, I knew that German was not for me. I retreated quickly and curled myself hoping that this is neither too long nor too painful. Alas, this was the long and painful.
Never mind, I was no German, it did perhaps only the language itself. I came in 4th, the age of the second language, full of hope, ready to erase the bitter defeat and conquer these new lands. I gauged the forces in the English course, have noted the similarity of behavior, these questions become harder and more slowly but in a different language again, and I beat a retreat piteously.
Everything else was only cuts and bruises, strategies ridiculous to hide my ignorance, humiliation almost daily, visit parents-teachers of languages in which, to my amazement, it was supposed to protect myself from the world since I was the flesh of his flesh, namely my mother, the mother, against all odds was siding with the enemy to overwhelm me, which I did not need that to feel I lost miserably.
I have carried this burden until adulthood, where everyone knows you become another person.
This new individual, naively, thought that the time of the recovery came, it was going to show everyone who he was, he could be someone who spoke a foreign language and who made very good pies campaign. This new individual is not only party in a country where nobody speaks their language (Sweden), but even decided to learn the language (Swedish for those who are really not good at geography). Alas, it took only a few minutes of class only to find they do not draw a line under the past like that. The same question repeated, although less aggressively (I'm still here of my own), bringing the same effects: anxiety, sweating, desperate cries for help. I still paint all over my five words to learn. I'm still puzzled by the tiny texts that I had, stopped abruptly by the second word, yes, that word that I managed to find yesterday. The defeat was especially bitter that I had sought the battle.

So is there anyone can explain to me why I put myself in the same galleys?

- On the commercial :

The new business model that had only 2 months of real life seems to significantly improve the quality of customer service.

However, this model leads to a disengagement of the sign as a seller of certain product families knowing that such cycles the radius of the establishment of Venissieux, removed as part of this business model was 1 st ranked France.

- Economically:

All investment efforts for the development of hypermarkets are concentrated on the new business model and its deployment.

The lack of hindsight on the economic effects of the new business model does not demonstrate that this model has a positive impact, certain and sustainable revenue. To date, preliminary results are not up to the expected objectives, however, the turnover showed a significant increase and an increase in gain. market share

The willingness of the company is to ignore deliberate on certain product families, however sources of CA and market share. The turnover generated by these product families is expected to be offset by the development other families. These choices are strategic. These

of strategic choices are not necessarily sufficient to offset the loss of turnover of families removed.

For example : The world of the home that includes the art of the table and the white ray does not demonstrate its effectiveness in maintaining, developing show turnover. The increase of reference of this universe is supposed to compensate for the removal of furniture and bedding families ... ..

- On the social and human

The new business model has the following consequences:

In remove shelves or family of products: Major DIY, automotive accessories, cycling adult permanent standing furniture, garden pest out.

Employees working families in the spokes or deleted have been reclassified in the store.

The new business model has the following consequences:

To organize the world in specialized units, called the universe functions including sales specialist: gamers, vendors bio. The direction in his presentation of the organization defined the level of its employees' sales assistant level II. However, it appears that the level of sophistication and professionalization of these occupations require a new skill and a permanent updating of knowledge (as sellers EPCS), which is why our appreciation to the level These tasks correspond more to Level III "sales consultant".

As such, these new businesses are in their tasks and Profile at Level III and should be incorporated in the collective agreement Carrefour.

Economic Commission Opinion:

The new business model being tested in hyper (Venissieux, Ecully) since August 25, 2010, he would need a point to date on development economic and social consequences of this model on these two institutions is presented to the EAC in January 2, 2011 (before the deployment phase in other hypermarkets).

Similarly it would also need an update on the situation of the first half is presented to the CEC 2011 and 2 nd half of 2011. These points of situation to deal with the progress of deployments, the details of investments by institutions, the economic (development / maintenance of CA, making / retaining market share) back on the life of the universe, and the consequences social medium term deployment of the new business model (creation / deletion of posts, new business / new classification, impact on employment)

The Economic Committee invites the CEC to ensure that jobs and new jobs created under the new business model will be offered first to employees whose jobs are declared sensitive or that they will disappear product family because of the new business model

The Economic reminded members of the Central Committee that the business partnership Virgin is currently subject to a test that should be completed by end 2011.

In this respect the consultation so far can not relate to the validation or non-validation of the concept Virgin. This point of the new business model will necessarily be an information / consultation specific CEC Hyper SAS, if management were to consider the deployment of the concept Virgin.

Economic Commission therefore invites the Central Works Council to abstain in the vote on this project due to lack of hindsight on the effects and consequences of this project.

SIGN THE PETITION PETITION HALDE

THE HALDE must remain an independent administrative authority

AND SELF

The birth of HALDE is the result of a long political process, reflected and nourished by many experiences and struggles brought by unions and associations. There is thus almost 10 years, a group composed of both these organizations and experts was formed for the sole purpose of calling for the creation of an "independent administrative authority, purpose discrimination in general and universal, quick to effectively combat discriminatory practices. It was high time that France gets a real policy against discrimination. The establishment of an independent, autonomous, imposed in any event the Community law, is the highlight. With the law of 30 December 2004, finally appeared in our institutional landscape of the High Authority against Discrimination and for Equality (HALDE).

THE HALDE SHOWED ITS EFFECTIVENESS AND ITS LEGITIMACY IS RECOGNIZED
Those who were working to end discrimination and equal treatment, regardless sex, origin, age or health and disability ... welcomed this development, although some have expressed some doubts about the ability of the High Authority to act effectively, especially given the means and the limited powers granted to it. Yet, very quickly, HALDE will succeed in convincing and to show his determination in the fight against discriminatory treatment. Admittedly, he may be accused of not always treat the files fast enough, or not sufficiently support some of its deliberations. However, these criticisms are related to his means and powers HALDE and allowed France to take a significant milestone: discrimination become visible and widely shared sense that impunity prevails in this area tends to fade.
HALDE is also a team of professionals, experts in their field, relayed on the ground by local correspondents, as effective as that invested in their mission.
Discussions HALDE, high quality in terms of legal rigor, have enabled him to establish his legitimacy.
Who, if not HALDE has powerful reminder of the right employees, dismissed because of pregnancy, to compensation and / or reinstated? Which helped to end the inequality made to veterans and officials of the French state, became foreigners after decolonization, consisting of a pension to pay them much less than that attributed to French nationals? Who found discriminatory use of DNA testing to establish parentage in foreign families? Who made visible discrimination against Travellers, discrimination still enshrined in law and practice? Which showed discrimination related to disability and health status? The examples are not lacking to show that the HALDE has not hesitated to remind the law, including where the authority was discriminating state. Is not this in fact what it is today announcing its demise?

What first made the HALDE is his specialty, the fight against discrimination and for equality. She was able to feed on the experience gained by the unions and associations in charge of this or any such specific discriminations allowing these actors of civil society to strengthen their own efforts. This broad mission is closely linked to issues of visibility, access to rights and justice in particular, for categories of people who are often poor and little quick to seize the judge. HALDE assists victims of discrimination and may make submissions to the courts, as stated by the Court of Cassation.


INDEPENDENCE / COLLEGIALITY / LINKS WITH CIVIL SOCIETY
advantage of examining the organic law establishing a Defender of Rights, introduced by the new Article 77-1 of the Constitution, the Law Commission Senate introduced without consultation, the High Authority in the scope of competence of the new entity. This absorption is presented as a promotion of the fight against discrimination and to accede to constitutional status.
But several elements of this project are rather alarming. The Defender of Rights alone and decide arbitrarily whether to deal with discriminatory practices and to protect the rights, the draft makes no place effective collegiality. The College would be only advisory and the Advisory Committee itself, which brings the voice of civil society would be purely and simply removed ... While HALDE must watch all claims (constantly increasing), the Defender of Rights would only prioritize a particular subject.
Other provisions of the draft are also problematic: it is unclear who will practice and how, refer to the advocate; assistants will have a reduced capacity for initiative and if the powers of HALDE appear maintained, the conditions of its year are not guaranteed, the scope of intervention is reduced.
The risk is clearly a net shift of policy against discrimination. The future institution, the legislature is preparing to create under the name "Defender of Rights," can not continue the work of the HALDE

THE CONCERNS OF INTERNATIONAL FORUMS
The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination UN (CERD) August 27, 2010, made his comments following the report submitted by France. "He notes the draft law on the Defender of Rights, but he is concerned about the multiple functions of this new institution and is concerned that the mandate against discrimination including racial discrimination, currently vested in the HALDE no longer only one element of the mandate of Defender of Rights. Consistent with its recommendation on the national plan to fight against racial discrimination, the Committee while seeking greater coordination between the state mechanisms to address issues related to racial discrimination, recommends that a separate independent institution with a mandate to fight against discrimination, including racial discrimination. In this regard, the Committee emphasizes the important role of the High Authority in the fight against discrimination, including racial discrimination. "
For its part, the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), in its report adopted April 29, 2010, noted: "it is important to ensure that through the establishment of this new institution (Defender of Rights), the protection of the rights currently provided by existing authorities are not undermined, particularly concerning the fight against discrimination, being conducted by the High Authority, including racial discrimination, which requires a certain specialization. Given the key role that the High Authority against Discrimination and for Equality (HALDE) plays in the fight against racial discrimination, ECRI recommends that the French authorities continue to support this institution. It should pay particular attention to what this institution is regularly consulted and is developing effective cooperation with authorities in particular taking into account its views and recommendations in the areas of expertise that are hers. "

PROJECT WITHOUT REAL PROOF
Why should we lose the undeniable achievements of the HALDE acquired recognized by all, including beyond our borders for the benefit of an instance the "Defender rights "that combine several functions and have to know between 50,000 and 100,000 cases a year?
The main reason for entrusting the "advocate" missions HALDE be economic. A single institution would be cheaper than multiple instances (ie HALDE, the Ethics Committee of Safety, the Ombudsman and the Ombudsman for Children). Besides the economic argument that must sometimes give way to political choices, it is unclear whether the device is more economical (establishment of a new body, new advertising campaigns, personal resume ...). At least we do indeed want to reduce expenses significantly ...

HALDE must remain an independent authority. We urge the National Assembly to carefully consider the issues.

Those who once called for the establishment of an independent authority to fight against discrimination and all others who are convinced of the rightness of the cause, calling on parliamentarians to defend the autonomy of the HALDE and the independent exercise of its duties.
