Le monde selon Monsanto - Arte FR

by mixher & 2 others
Du continent américain à l'Inde en passant par l'Europe, une enquête magistrale et alarmante sur la multinationale américaine qui commercialise 90 % des OGM dans le monde. La société Monsanto, multinationale américaine née en 1901 à Saint Louis, dans le Missouri, et d'abord spécialisée dans l'industrie chimique, est devenue en un peu plus d'un siècle le leader mondial des biotechnologies, en particulier sur le marché des organismes génétiquement modifiés (OGM). Elle détient les brevets de 90 % du maïs, du soja, du colza ou du coton transgéniques cultivés dans le monde. Par le biais de rachats successifs, elle est en train de devenir le premier semencier de la planète et, à terme, c'est la chaîne alimentaire tout entière qu'elle pourrait contrôler. Mais c'est d'abord avec le Round Up, son herbicide "total" (longtemps estampillé "biodégradable") qu'elle a commencé, à partir de 1974, à conquérir le monde. On lui doit aussi des produits aussi variés que le terrible agent Orange, massivement déversé sur le Viêt-nam par l'armée américaine, les PCB (pyralène en France, interdit au début des années 80), l'aspartame ou les hormones de croissance (interdites en Europe et au Canada). Monsanto, avertit Marie-Monique Robin, est l'une des entreprises "les plus controversées de l'ère industrielle".«

MarshalSandler.com » Gotham Gal-Etiquette

by msandler
It is no secret Gotham Gal is one of my favorites and is a top content creator ! I once posted a comment on her husband’s web site that I still took notes on Crain StationaryWith A Quill pen ! http://www.crane.com/ My mother was very well educated and in our house Etiquette was king ! We had beautiful Crane Note paper and I still remember even though I was born in 1936-having to write hundreds of thank you note’s to people who attended my Bar Mitzvah ! I of course used a Parker 51 Fountain Pen that I got as a gift ! When I turned 21 I had my own Crain Stationary that was blind embossed with a simple line in the left hand column and the store where I bought it had to register the embossing ! The stationary got me a lot of response from politicians and other people I wrote , they must have thought I was important ! Presentation is a very important element in any communcation ! I was always jealous of my Friends who attented Catholic School since their penmanship was a work of art ! They had the Palmer method applied to their fingers with a ruler ! I didn’t meet the ruler method until I went Hebrew School ! I went to Detroit Country Day School for grades 1-12 and there was a lot of pressure applied to read and write ! Steve Ballmer also graduated from that School a long time after me and I know dam well it gave him an excellent base for a career ! Most of the people at that school were Harvard Bound since the headmaster F Alden Shaw was a Harvard graduate ! Me I went to the University of Miami and majored in what they call today Communication, with a minor in Statistics and it was the fifties so we all got 5th Degree Black Belts in Rum Drinking on a beautiful island 90 mies from Miami - Viva Ritmo Latino ! A good education will help you understand the Human Condition a long with a few wacks from a good Psychiatrist ! Both these elements temper your ego and make sure you are not a snob ! The internet is young and I have found a lot of people who created content that is presented with good taste aimed at all of the US The Unwashed ! I strongly resent the critics on the internet who have no backround liberal arts critisizing others ! Teche’s are the worst at this since usually they have technical degress and have never learned to communicate with anything other than a machine ! My people communicators are Seth Godin- Davie Winer- Chris Brogan-ShelIsrael-Bill Israel-Andrew Badera-Frank Eliason-Guy Kawasaki -Fred Wilson-Gotham Gal and many more !

LibriVox » Tom Sawyer, by Mark Twain

by tadeufilippini (via)
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain (1835-1910) The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (published 1876) is a very well-known and popular story concerning American youth. Mark Twain’s lively tale of the scrapes and adventures of boyhood is set in St. Petersburg, Missouri, where Tom Sawyer and his friend Huckleberry Finn have the kinds of adventures many boys can imagine: racing bugs during class, impressing girls, especially Becky Thatcher, with fights and stunts in the schoolyard, getting lost in a cave, and playing pirates on the Mississippi River. One of the most famous incidents in the book describes how Tom persuades his friends to do a boring, hateful chore for him: whitewashing (i.e., painting) a fence. This was the first novel to be written on a typewriter. (Summary from Wikipedia)
