Chronicles newsletter nr 1

Indeed I 'm not always alone aboard Navy Unknown to ensure the permanence of the most powerful blast of Air du Temps Marino and Controversy but C. Chronic ! In other words, it can also happen to serve as a voice to those trying to silence.
" ... In case some would have the inclination to go settle in Guyana ... "
(Cecilia, one of my new thereof)
Here is a retransmission of free Chronicles Guyanese (XXL1) by" Jojopilou "
(" amplified "December 3, 2008 at 11:00 by Chronicles XXL2 )
Quote:
"At Saint-Laurent du Maroni Thursday, November 28, 2008 at 17:20"
- " Do you know what an operation" dead city "? a "death department"? A "dead region"? "
-" No? Well here is what happens to us "
" It does you will not escape the price of a barrel of oil has plummeted since last summer. Well, here the price of fuel is ... Fall climb! It took 20 Euro cents since this summer (because the currency is the Euro in Guyana as we know) after having taken so far in 2008. We currently pay € 1.55 per liter of diesel and about 1, 80 € a liter of unleaded. With some variations ... "Informal". A full cost us € 35 a year ago, 60 € at least now. We decided to wait a little longer to turn on the heating ...
Since two days it happened what had to happen, the roads are blocked. It is true that the level of road equipment in Guyana will block the entire territory with which barely suffice to complete or Caussade Alencon ...
market in Kourou

The result also means that after 48 hours there were more than one open trading. Our two "superstores" (well. .. it must not exaggerate) were closed yesterday when the rays are found Sovietized enough.
- All Chinese merchants have closed their doors in solidarity, they say. This is partly true, but we must consider two other factors, all being blocked, security guards they used to use can not come to work and they probably fear looting. On the other hand Diasporal their solidarity prevents them probably competing with each other.
We can no longer move. The dams do more than cross feet, and go to my school now I have to walk 10 km under a dodger 50 ° in the sun ... But the mayor of St. Lawrence and former minister has been a political act at high risk by ordering the closure of schools by municipal ordinance. Here I am laid off until further notice, but we can bet that I get paid anyway. Cons by depriving children of a school means already ridiculous, "that adds to the principle of equality of opportunity.
The Maroni

If the crisis is not resolved (ie dams raised) when our fridge is empty, we have a few alternatives for food, ie going by night dig cassava in the giblets or the bushinengé mérindiens, being careful not to take a machete or a snake hook. Or spend a night on the river with an Indian to bring some good fish mercury, or learn to shoot and lend themselves to a gun. As we see, we are not left behind.
other hand, "Ya more planes!" Deposits Rochambeau airport are empty because the tankers and container ships are not unloaded at Cayenne. So they turn back to the mainland, or they'll sell and unload their cargo in Paramaribo, Suriname. When Pilou be back in a few days, it should perhaps cross the river to catch a flight to Paramaribo to Amsterdam. GrandJo, it will get up early to go back to the airport!
For commercial operations, the Marfret Guiana have to wait.

summarize:
Not one trade does not work properly with the access to care is compromised because the hospital can store tons of drugs, will perhaps be more soon able ensure a "minimum service". If " Scoumoune " while this combination is not good.
- More travel possible, more postal service or bank, etc..
- And the riots that are starting to do a lot of noise with barricades, garbage cans and cars on fire, "e tutti quanti .
Séverine journalist, what would she say that?
Probably a great rant!

But everything that we report here, you may already know, because our media (radio, television and print hex) are doing their job. Proof! We heard about the blocking of the Bangkok airport.
How? No? Did not you know? So, the most scandalous of all, is that the media should no longer have access to the Internet. Otherwise, how could such a blackout? Fortunately we, we have access!
Have we not heard in the past is a little man gesticulating gargling personal pronouns in first person singular:
- "I decided ... I will not stand ... I find it unbelievable ... I ask that ... etc.. etc.."
But where are our policies and our elected officials now? Well, they discuss the price of SMS with telephone operators or what happens to the party that has more socialist than the name ...
And the media? Tell us, in any region, any department of the "Hexagon" in some places more than others for that matter, television channels, radio, print media is crowded around the men and women politicians to make hénaurmes Spotlights. Yet here we have everything you need:
- A Regional Council, a General Council, a prefect and even a sub-prefect, a former Mayor, Minister ...
Their batteries are drained? Or is there more tables or chairs to sit and chat? As

Guyana, whether French (Kourou) and wild (Saint-Laurent du Maroni), it is in the dark! (No pun).
- No official projectors for us.
So help us help Guyana, circulate this information to as many as possible of your knowledge, so that many people know that French territories are completely left out (final settlement) account. "

JojoPilou (jojopilou@orange.fr)" Just for you! "
End quote!
To see clear ...

This special page Guiana is part of a resistance becomes necessary because the "political" and businessmen in power have more and more afraid of the Internet and vast canvas their personal pages or blogs and other technical formulas that allow free expression without control that is now undergoing any conventional press, whether radio, television ou écrite.
Ils et elles haïssent toutes et tous cordialement la blogosphère car elle échappe presque totalement à leur contrôle et qu'il est souvent très difficile de faire taire les "emmerdeurs". Mais ceux-ci doivent cependant se méfier . Pour preuve, voyez cet exemple récent:
Pieter De Crem le ministre Belge de la Défense, n’aime pas les blogs .
Degrad des Cannes, port de Cayenne.

Un commentaire personnel s'impose, comme pour ce qui se passe avec nos Chemins de Fer . A mon sens, il faut profiter de la crise financial system to hit the systematic bleeding dominating France and its overseas territories since the late 70s. Good words and promises of reordering of international finance are not enough. We need to question what is done with us since at least 1980: The
Inconvenient Truth is emerging at all. The political system in France is muzzled. However, we are more likely to understand that "right" and "left" is actually white-hat and white-hat. What happened in 30 years?
The widespread impoverishment, deindustrialization, relocations, the dismantling of public services and social protection and "finally" development imposed a way of thinking that is stifling and deleterious destroying all social cohesion.
Meanwhile the richest feast are still more!
Sometimes under the palms, like in the movies ...

Alternating appearance UMP-PS since 1981 only serves to perpetuate an odious political and economic system, more and more violent and very dangerous for us and ultimately for the future of our children, it is time to worry a bit. What to do?
First talk ever by all means! "Any break" has already been tried in the past. That sucks and we know very well. Discuss it in all directions will gradually together, convince an overwhelming majority of people to meet all the conditions necessary to finally put away permanently vicious political forces "UMP-PS".
Eventually I think he will definitely prevent them even from standing for elections because it becomes necessary to get rid of these "elites" parasitic. It will also seek justice for all those and all who have been ruined (s) by the actions of this clique mafia since the late 1970s.

Here it is more concrete Communism today

Still old Marxist clichés? Devil ... Are you sure? Those who know me personally I do not fall within this movement. Having said that I can see, Marx knew very well observe what was happening around him. This continues to happen, of course, as time passes it is a modern and almost "renewed". If there was now nothing more to observe this kind, ie if certain segments of the population were not actually and concretely happily plucking all the others, there would be nothing to photograph!

Pierre Lazareff known it was anything but
a "total leftist, do not say another thing:

He told me that was located by chance in the same plane, Lazareff and President of Air France went together to an international conference in New York during the '60s. It happened during a very hard "law of series" in terms of aircraft accidents. The CEO of Air France have used this meeting to criticize Lazareff headlines "excessive" in his journal on the subject. Response Lazareff:

- "Make me mishaps, then you'll have small items ..."
Yeah .... Although

Containership and Globalization 2 / 3

Il y a un an déjà la Marine Inconnue, celle du Commerce, fut évoquée sur les ondes de la télévision en prenant tout le temps qu'il faut pour le faire. C'est arrivé en Novembre et Décembre lorsque ce texte fut mis en ligne le 22 Décembre 2007 à bord de la première version du site, sabordée en Mars 2008 pour ne rien cacher. Cet article revient donc en ligne ce 24 Novembre 2008 (à 19h00) corrigé et amplifié, mais en tant que seconde partie de l'article récent " Mondialisation vécue au large 1 ".
Avec un PC "qui se plante", on peut seulement faire le tour du Monde via Internet. Par contre avec un " PC qui flotte " votre tour du Monde n'est plus seulement virtuel, ce qui n'empêche pas qu'il y ait à bord plus d'un PC que l'on peut connecter à la Vaste Toile via l'option haut-débit d' Inmarsat . L'émission de TV Thalassa a fort bien su évoquer les "PC" ou porte-conteneurs, comme pas assez souvent à la télévision. Ces navires constituent le symbole le plus parfait de la mondialisation galopante et parfois forcenée. C'est ainsi " pour le meilleur ou pour le pire ".

La mondialisation a le feu au cul depuis quelques semaines, ( Yoyo financier international ) et c'est plus grave que ce qui arrive à l'un de ses symboles montré ici en fâcheuse posture. Je reviendrai prochainement ici-même sur d'autres aspects mal connus all this in the third article of the series.
Like the others, the excellent broadcast television Thalassa FR3 (looked to Algeria) rarely evokes Merchant today and his "little problems". It does not actually show so often (if not enough) the Merchant Seamen of the 2000s, no more often than it showed those of the 1970s, 80 or 90. We are also all sometimes come to be very frustrated often with good reason. That said ...
The CMA-CGM LaTour, who stars in Thalassa . This beautiful
porte-conteneurs n'a de français que le nom et son exploitant

A la fin 2007 Thalassa sut fort bien su rattraper ce "retard" avec sa série " Tour du Monde en PC ". Il est d'autre part fort rare de voir évoquer l'usage d' Internet en Mer dans les médias. Pourtant cela se fait maintenant depuis des années, c'est même de plus en plus utilisé à bord des navires de commerce pour communiquer avec la Compagnie, les services techniques de celle-ci bien sûr, ou tout simplement avec tout autre correspondant habituel de tout "navire de charge". Parmi ceux-ci par exemple(s), se trouvent le Pilotage des ports, les autorités portuaires, les agences maritimes and "everything else", not to mention the friend (s) and all the families of sailors course.

Satcom Terminal Staturn " Inmarsat A " - Already in 1980 ... But still no internet! This model already fitted to the Saint-Roch
one of Ro-Ro of the SNO.

However there is also using the Internet to "surf" or "sail" as other users of the "canvas". In this context, the term "surfing the Internet " I've always been amused. There is however a common point of this activity with the navigation on the water, but on the "vast canvas" on which to train more often sails! It wades too much that there is surfing! More foolish than the term "surfing" on the subject, there may be the "slang" ... That said the term "Explorer" from Microsoft, is not so pretentious, when you know how the "Web" has become vast as extensive Marines.

Inmarsat is simple to install on board in 2006, and setup the "client" is a SIM card!

Before directly addressing this Around the World in PC, I can not resist the temptation to write about my encounter with a Team Thalassa came aboard the cable ship Leon Thevenin who was then docked at Centre Cables submarines of France Telecom in Brest in 1990 ...

These brave people wanted to see and shoot a Radio Officer " make Morse. Why not? Nothing could be easier than showing them "how it happens." It was therefore a pleasure for me to give them a little "demo" in size. Let the music, here's an instrument:
This luxury model of Morse is superb. Mine
aboard Thevenin was less beautiful but also authentic ...

As they seemed a bit pressed for time, it was simpler to call the station Brest Le Conquet Medium Wave Radio to chat in writing with the operator (trice). This would be quick, spontaneous and most importantly, entirely representative. In 1990 the use of Morse Code by vessels was still common but declining. It was already "gradually" to evoke une possible fermeture de notre "sacro-sainte" Station Radio en Ondes Courtes de Saint Lys .

Inmarsat aujourd’hui, on ne rentre plus dans la boule, on ouvre. Faut-il un ouvre-boîtes ?

J'ai donc appelé Brest le Conquet "FFU" sur 500.00 Khz puis l'opératrice et moi nous sommes passés sur les deux fréquences "de travail" 480.00 et 487.00 Khz, très exactement comme je le faisais régulièrement en mer pour expédier mes messages de 10 à 15 groupes de 5 chiffres d' observations météorologique s. To do this, the Morse Code is both faster and more efficient than the satellites, which would be noticed and recalled here, even in 2008. On the other hand is much more "user friendly" with the code with the cold Inmarsat telex machines.
The cable ship Leon Thevenin Brest

Contact St-Lys would have been a little longer because it would make me wait my turn, and would have to wait for these people not very pateints. I also had to explain this. On the other hand, it is well known that journalists, (qurtout ceux de la TV) ont toujours tendance à vouloir simplifier à outrance les sujets "un peu trop techniques "... Et de les laisser installer leur matériel de prises de vue en discutant de choses et d'autres avec eux. Le local Radio du Thévenin était parfait pour eux car il était vaste, contrairement à celui de nombreux navires de commerce. C'était nécessaire pour les travaux câbliers et nous avions plus d'équipements. Pour filmer c'était donc "confortable". Que demande le peuple?
L'équipement radio du CMA-CGM Nabucco
Tandis que je me préparais, la chef-journaliste et ses deux collègues opérateurs observaient avec curiosité et étonnement mon matériel. Deux émetteurs d'Ondes courtes ITT 1610 étaient situés de l'autre bord de la pièce sur leur gauche, derrière la large console des récepteurs et du système TOR (telex on radio) radio-telex ARQ Phillips STB750. Derrière moi, se trouvaient trois imprimantes de telex, celle du TOR et celles des deux terminaux Satcom Inmarsat A . Où qu'ils se tournent, ils avaient à voir un appareil mystérieux pour les non-initiés...
L'opératrice du Conquet et moi nous avons donc échangé quelques mots. As soon as she received my short text explaining the presence of the television crew on board my ship, "FFU" naturally asked me to greet them from the "staff" of the station who had already received Thalassa ...

Pernoud George, Captain of Thalassa.

One of my two Satcom was doubtless not notice "as such" because simply, its visible part was they took a PC probably a simple desktop , inasmuch as it was also ... I still think back sometimes to a very old gentleman in the neighborhood of Toulon. This old retired Radio Officer I was astonished by visiting aboard Raymond Croze because he did not often set foot aboard a ship since his retirement in early 1960, even as a passenger ...

The cable ship Croze R. 1989. Painting fireplaces course, no symbol "France Telecom".

In 1922 (beginning of a seafaring career of the person) the author of science fiction as crazy never thought it would be possible for Sailors 1990, play with equipment failures radio accessories, then use it to hit the post and the crew list, or even treat then send all the accounting ship "in Paris" ... And what else?

On the other hand, receive and view satellite small video clips found on "Youtube " just for fun or as part of work on board, see the head of the "Master of Weaponry "with a webcam by calling Co. headquarters, if ever it was inconceivable for anyone, it probably suggested the urgent need to stop the booze after having thought ...

The St. Roch seen in the Seine to Rouen in 2008, has lost its hull painted in light gray as the time of the SNO. He became Delmas and is registered in the Bahamas. Moreover since 1980, I am sure he had to change his old "satcom" Inmarsat. ..

After being filmed, and connect with "The Conquest", I suddenly had to find his head bent to the young woman and her look weird. She was obviously very unhappy with my demonstration. I do not understand:

- " But ... It's not all! " she said suddenly.

- " How? Is not it ...?! (I was amazed) You wanted to attend a call in radio Morse code and I did it with The Conquet exactly as is, quite simply, as usual. What's wrong? "

I do not understand ... In fact, they wanted to see and film it, as imagined THEM! Ie not really like that actually happens or "normally". Among other "fantasies", she wanted me to put a helmet on his head like a movie . It was all very nice, but not "meant" not clear from this way. I only know that I have not seen later on TV or in Thalassa or elsewhere, let alone the local radio Leon Thevenin cable ship!

Even (especially) alongside the fire is easy, small or large. Here
the Emma Maersk victim of a stupid accident in his native
shipyard Odense in 2006.
(photo Firefighters Odense, hence the address "112")

Their visit was actually very fun, not only because of this strange divergence of views. Indeed, the second projector designed for Filmmaking in local radio was installed too close to the ceiling . So the e said ceiling caught fire because of the heat! I still laugh stupidly today because this incident is also not spent in Thalassa. What counts besides, it is mostly did not pass the newspaper TV from 19:00 FR3 Britain. Seizing the first fire extinguisher immediately within my reach, I left him that time for a little flame!
The CMA-CGM Fidelio

For about shipping, watching television I am not the "general public" we are all part of it is bike git a subject that is foreign to us. I naturally become ignorant as everyone watching a documentary devoted to wine growers in Languedoc (which I am yet born) ... The wine is easier to drink than produce, it must consult me especially for the first option.
Since this strange adventure television, HOW and WHY I understood everything that we are shown on television can sometimes be a little less "biased ", voluntarily or not.
Mearsk Emma wants to "size fine ", but she, her brothers and sisters
are the biggest PC World.

However Thalassa not" bias "and if not always his" crew "has demonstrated a" restraint "about maritime issues that may" upset "flags of convenience for example, we know that this withholding of precaution has a good cause. Without it there would be no long Thalassa!

conditions of Navigation "Trade" has become extremely "difficult" (to be polite), especially physically because of fatigue. It is a social fact now recognized internationalement. Le contexte du business maritime fut en effet dans les premiers à devoir "s'inscrire" dans le cadre de plus en plus inquiétant de la libéralisation frénétique des échanges commerciaux.

Le CMA-CGM Mozart en escale à Marseille

C'est ainsi de longue date, au point que la mondialisation soit devenue "un sujet qui fâche" ou "qui glisse" parce que trop délicat, donc dangereux pour la longévité d'une émission de radio ou de TV! Ce n'est pas pour rien que Thalassa a su dépasser les 25 ans de diffusion à la télévision. Sans cette prudence parfois excessive, les téléspectateurs auraient depuis fort longtemps had to "move on" every Friday night ... (Never mind if I repeat myself) is very well have been able to last as long in the middle waved television delivered to the "merchants of the temple!

The CMA-CGM Vela leaves his home starts, it can carry 11,000 "boxes".

This trip survey Container Co. of CMA-CGM began aboard CMA-CGM La Tour , French ship under the flag of the Bahamas Islands (registered in Nassau). It is a ship French without French to his board, although his company is French. How not to find this bizarre? More interestingly, the series was completed, thus continuing in the Far East on board the ANL Australia, another large container this time "led" by some French sailors.

Opening in Le Havre from CMA CGM Tosca

Business went so well for the CMA-CGM in Marseille today that it has far more ships than the number of French sailors available on "Labour Market 'would make browsing. It has of partly because the number of vessels increases suddenly, but also simply because simultaneously French sailors are fewer and fewer . Why?

Thalassa was able to talk with talent in a few. It's a rare thing and everything they told us is both inspiring and instructive for those familiar with the show that his hearing was saved from strong winds (sometimes) bad the "PAF". Those who were able to listen the marine Romanians and French the Nabucco talk about their "Job" to have probably noticed and understood, aboard the magnificent ships are leading a life in a crazy atmosphere often sad. Sailors Romanians said they were probably a lot that could not be shown on the show, things more or less accessible to those who listen between the words and read between the lines. To understand without being able to hear them say, must have been a sailor. Modern shipping has not "salt" Great Time Navigation, " no so long."

Acadia Forest is an American cargo barge carriers, is a typical technique
out there who has not had much success in Europe.


Interrogé en 1993 par l'Hebdo " Le Marin " à l'occasion de son dernier voyage avant de partir en retraite, le Cdt Fauriel du Fort Royal de l'ancienne CGM exprima sa profonde lassitude en posant une bonne question:
-" Qu'avons-nous fait de notre beau métier? "

Le MSC Napoli (ex CGM Normandie ) fut "un PC qui se plante"...

L'équipe de Thalassa a su évoquer ces dernières semaines la navigation moderne avec la retenue habituelle certes, mais aussi avec une grande précision et une objectivité précise. Ce tour du Monde Containership in French is extremely interesting, if not, more and more interesting. This article also explains why I left the navigation in 1991. I felt threatened in my values and my relationship to work, for this new style of life at sea
At Havre, the CMA-CGM Nabucco engaged (with)
few dance steps for take the right direction ...

other hand, the transport capacity of CMA CGM Nabucco or the Emma Maersk seem bewildering to a shipowner of the 19th century, to say about 8000 to 11,000 containers "EVP" we call "boxes", if not at least as many truck ... Imagine what it would represent 11,000 trucks on a highway "in single file!

One thing, however, remained absolutely unchanged since the "old sister", there is still some unfinished things "here and there" , aboard a new ship when he leaves his home site! I particularly enjoyed the commentary young Second Captain. She said not be the Tinkerbell , citing concerns of small painting of Nabucco, which was delivered by its Korean site without his "colors" of the hull and deck are fully completed. Being without a doubt very meticulous the mate we saw in an interview in Thalassa seemed to "hold" from his boat just as she keeps her inside. This also proves that the seafarer is not only "a man's job".

RE: Maj. Goodnight! This was worth a quick response from CLC! I just corrected the article, which was as usual a little too quickly written and posted online. There will other reactions a priori!
When I sailed, my "big old" you are, regularly refers to the loss of a lifestyle that allowed them to better understand that we the wide world browsing. You were lucky not to navigate as suitcases!
We have gradually begun to do in the late 70s. Now it has become the norm. I see even today say the same thing as you! We were sailing "better" than the Nabucco guys, I think so too.

In 1987, the PC Belge Quinquela Martin (ex-Van Dyck)

Although a little younger than you, looking at it I also feel they have Navy is sailing! On the other hand, I had the honor to meet and shake hands with some old gentlemen who were still among us there is not so long. They passed Cape Horn aboard the 4 poles of the "House Bordes", and of Prentout Laesz until 1922. Where did the line from Philadelphia to Dieppe to import oil on board first tankers that were three and four masts, which knows very little, as he knows even less than Dieppe at the time was the largest French oil port . These guys were also more numerous in the 1980s.

Gale aboard the four masted Richelieu (1922) The

Panama Canal has not changed much, but it's "becoming"! By cons I have not experienced the same Suez Canal you, let alone that of CMA-CGM Nabucco. The maritime world has had to change so dramatically since the late 60s. You may have noticed, the technique has become "pretty" and the machinery is intended to be very clean. But these fine ships have no such stress for the guys. There is indeed a side "science fiction" on board a modern vessel such as Nabucco. But they no longer have the comfort of luxurious ships of the 70 ...

What has changed is that we have today always stronger nerves, calm and placid temperament and above all, to wish a life of monastic work to be a good modern sailor! I am surprised that no monastery has yet made contact with the world of the "International Shipping", a term more appropriate than "Merchant" for their "manufacture" of monks sailors! This would work well.

Finally ... They will always be the beautiful sunsets on the Horizon Unlimited, the Southern Cross, the endless conversations on the bridge wing and unforgettable spectacle and formidable offered Neptune at its big anger. The element Oceanic regularly knows remind anyone navigating the awesome power of nature. This
, no technical change will take away any time soon, at least to institutionalize the "tele-transportation" dematerialized containers. It is not for tomorrow, a priori! Although
