Indépendance des Chercheurs http://www.geocities.com/indep_chercheurs NI RAFFARIN, NI JOSPIN: ABROGATION DE LA LOLF! (LOLF = Loi Organique relative aux Lois de Finances, loi promulguée le 1er août 2001) Les débats récents en rapport avec les posts d'Indymedia demandant la démission de Renaud Dutreil: http://paris.indymedia.org/article.php3?id_article=28970 http://paris.indymedia.org/article.php3?id_article=29112 soulèvent plusieurs questions intéressantes. Une intervenante soutient, par exemple, que, contrairement à ce qu'affirme Charlie Hebdo, Dutreil ne s'est pas "laché". Elle invoque, dans les archives de la XI législature, le dossier de la LOLF (Loi Organique relative aux Lois de Finances) pour mettre en évidence que tous les partis politiques présents, du PCF à DL, avaient applaudi cette loi dont on se sert de plus en plus contre les fonctionnaires : http://www.assemblee-nationale.fr/budget/lois_de_finances/loi_organique.asp C'est malheureusement exact, et d'autant plus grave qu'un article d'Anne-Marie Leroy paru dans Cadres - CFDT d'octobre 2003 sur la Loi Organique Relative aux Lois de Finances (LOLF) : http://www.cadres-plus.net/pdf_lire.php?num=463 s'intitule : " Une révolution peut en cacher une autre La LOLF et la gestion de la Fonction Publique" et commence d'emblée par : "La loi organique du 1er août 2001 n'est pas une réforme budgétaire : c'est une révolution de la gestion publique dans son ensemble." C'est justement cette "révolution" que le monde politique avait "oublié" de nous exposer en 2001, que Dutreil poursuit à présent.

  • WALK 2 | Jardin Du Luxembourg Start – Metro Station, Line 4 St-Germain-Des-Prés Approximate Length: 3.4 Km

    WALK 2 | Jardin du Luxembourg Start – Metro Station, Line 4 St-Germain-des-Prés Approximate Length: 3.4 km 7 8 10 9 N U = Underground Metro Station = Optional route Emerging from the Metro station, you will be on Boulevard Saint Germain. Go to Place Saint Germain des Prés. Pass by the café Les Deux Magots, and in the middle of the plaza across from the church, you will find a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 7 Place St. Germain des Prés, 6th Arr. This fountain is near the entrance to the old abbey church, Saint Germain des Prés. In warm months, the fountain is surrounded by outdoor seating for nearby cafes and restaurants. One 7 cafe is Les Deux Magots, made famous by its former clientele - lost generation writers, surrealist artists, and existentialist philosophers. Today, the cafe attracts tourists and those who want to feel they rubbed shoulders with the ghosts of long dead French intellectuals. Perhaps Hemingway or Sartre drank from this Wallace Fountain after they had too much to drink at Les Deux Magots. Saint Germain des Prés is the oldest church in Paris with parts dating back to the sixth century. If you have time, look inside. Undergoing renovation, it is slowly being restored to its original glory. Cross Boulevard St-Germain and walk south on Rue Bonaparte until you arrive at Place Saint-Sulpice. In the square and across the street from the town hall of the 6th arrondissement is a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 8 Place Saint-Sulpice, 6th Arr. At the southwest corner of the square stands the fountain.

Following defeat in the 1870 war, the demise of Napoleon III, and the Paris Commune, these men sought to reform the training of French politicians. Politically and economically, people feared France's international stature was waning due to inadequate teaching of its political and diplomatic corps. The new school developed a humanistic and pragmatic teaching program with instructors including academics as well as practitioners such as ministers, high civil servants, and businessmen. Sidney and Beatrice Webb used the purpose and curriculum of Sciences Po as part of their inspiration for creating the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1895. Sciences Po further strengthened its role as a scientific publication centre with significant donations from the Rockefeller Foundation. Sciences Po periodicals such as la Revue française de science politique, la Chronologie politique africaine, and the Cahiers de la Fondation as well as its nine research centers and main publishing house, Presses de Sciences Po, contribute to the notoriety attained by Sciences Po research. Sciences Po has undergone many reforms and introduced a compulsory year abroad component to its Bachelor degree, and now offers a multilingual curriculum in French, English, and other languages.

    SHIRLEY GOLDFARB AN AMERICAN PAINTER IN PARIS SHIRLEY GOLDFARB AN AMERICA IN PARIS AN AMERICAN PAINTER IN PARIS SHIRLEY GOLDFARB January 21 – March 15, 2021 212.695.0164 LORETTAHOWARD.COM 2 3 An Affair to Remember It seems, in retrospect, that artist Shirley Goldfarb was aptly, presciently named. Goldfarb translates into English as gold or golden color, a hue she gravitated toward almost heliotropically, and the color of some of her most ravishing paintings. It is a name that tagged her as a potential painter and chromaphile, which she proved to be, becoming an inspired and fearless colorist. It foretold, perhaps, that she would be attracted to light, both natural and artificial: the light created in a painting; the light of the spotlight illuminating the performer; the clarifying, incomparable light of Parisian skies. That she was smitten by la ville lumière also might have been predicted. Be that as it may, Goldfarb, with her husband Gregory Masurovsky, who was also an artist, arrived in Paris in 1954. And, in 1956, their son Marc Jean was born. For American women who wanted to be considered serious artists at the time (Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, Helen Frankenthaler come to mind), children were often considered one more impediment in addition to so many others and renounced. Goldfarb, however, always audacious, undaunted, pursued her own path, driven by a fierce need to assert her independence. Paris suited her. It allowed her to flourish, to become whom she imagined she was. As with any coup de coeur, there were ups and downs, periods of enchantment and disillusionment.
