he was sleeping in the family apartment on the fifth floor of 12 Chemin des Barques He piled wet sheets and mattresses against the doors and instinctively waited for help "Neighbors on the street were yelling to jump out the window Sebastien's wife and Jordan climbed down the fire department ladder with his baby in his arms and both wearing oxygen masks I was too high up," said 51-year-old Dainguy (many witnesses prefer not to give their names) who lived on the eighth floor with his partner gathered his family in the living room: "I covered the children to avoid the rising smoke." With the heat intensifying the father told the family to take refuge on the balcony the firefighters quickly realized that things were out of hand "I told them to take care of the neighbor on the eighth floor He waited for an hour before clambering along the façade You have 77.44% of this article left to read Lecture du Monde en cours sur un autre appareil Vous pouvez lire Le Monde sur un seul appareil à la fois Ce message s’affichera sur l’autre appareil Parce qu’une autre personne (ou vous) est en train de lire Le Monde avec ce compte sur un autre appareil Vous ne pouvez lire Le Monde que sur un seul appareil à la fois (ordinateur En cliquant sur « Continuer à lire ici » et en vous assurant que vous êtes la seule personne à consulter Le Monde avec ce compte Que se passera-t-il si vous continuez à lire ici Ce dernier restera connecté avec ce compte Vous pouvez vous connecter avec votre compte sur autant d’appareils que vous le souhaitez mais en les utilisant à des moments différents Nous vous conseillons de modifier votre mot de passe Votre abonnement n’autorise pas la lecture de cet article merci de contacter notre service commercial Inquiry launched into ‘wilful damage leading to death’ after six adults and four children perished on Friday French prosecutors have opened an investigation into “wilful damage leading to death” after a pre-dawn blaze killed 10 people in a rundown seven-storey block of flats outside Lyon The Lyon public prosecutor’s office said six adults and four children died in the fire on Friday in Vaulx-en-Velin and 24 people had been injured four of whom remained in a serious condition in hospital Initial reports said five adults and five children were killed said all the victims had been identified and the forensic investigation tended to confirm witness reports that the blaze had started in a ground-floor apartment before spreading rapidly to the upper storeys of the building Police had so far found no trace of flammable liquids or other evidence that the fire could have been caused by arson but added it was “not yet possible to determine whether or it was accidental or was started deliberately” Residents said a number of complaints had been made about squatters occupying a flat in the privately owned block has acknowledged the building was a known hangout for drug dealers A firefighter vehicle parked outside the seven-storey apartment building in Vaulx-en-Velin where 10 people died on Friday Photograph: Olivier Chassignole/AFP/Getty ImagesThe building was evacuated on Friday and 38 families – roughly 100 residents – have since been rehoused in emergency accommodation pending a more permanent solution Several hundred people gathered on Saturday outside the town hall for a silent vigil in memory of the victims Geoffroy praised an “immense wave of community solidarity” that had “eased survivors’ pain” a former industrial area about three miles (5km) north of the wealthy centre of Lyon including a large number of immigrant families A third of the town’s residents live below the poverty threshold Free weekly newsletterThe most pressing stories and debates for Europeans – from identity to economics to the environment it was the scene of riots in 1990 sparked by the death of a youth hit by a police car city authorities launched a €100m programme to revamp the area into a so-called “eco-district” France has had several deadly fires in recent decades 10 people were killed and 96 wounded in a fire in Paris 24 people were killed in a fire in a residential home used by families of African origin You don't have permission to access the page you requested What is this page?The website you are visiting is protected.For security reasons this page cannot be displayed Receive bi-weekly updates and analysis from  was killed by a police officer in the Parisian suburb of Nanterre and Nahel’s death may have been the result of a legacy of colonialism “in this kind of suburb it’s pretty rare that a young person hasn’t been stopped by police or hasn’t been in custody.”  More Than Race: Colonialism and Immigration Following the post-World War II wave of decolonization, many former colonial subjects emigrated to France. At first, Algerians benefited from a special legal status: They had long-stay visas had an easier road to acquiring French citizenship compared to other immigrants they were also prey to discriminatory practices by immigrant service workers many of whom were former bureaucrats in the colonial administration partly because of the retirement of said administrators the legal status of Algerian migrants began converging to that of other foreigners and the rigorous surveillance they were subjected to was eased.  France’s current immigration policy is not completely free from the ghost of colonial domination associate professor of Francophone and Africana Studies at the City University of New York explained in an interview with the Harvard Political Review “What they call immigration today is basically people coming from the colonial empire and going to France.” She noted that focusing solely on race misses the greater point we’re talking about goods and people moving around.” There is more to Nahel’s case than just race a concept that is addressed in different ways in the United States and in France Although Nahel was not an immigrant himself, having been born and raised in France by a single mother from an Algerian family the color of his skin carries the mark of colonialism and immigration from former French colonies the French Republic views each citizen as simply a French citizen “It is very hard to talk about discrimination in the French colorblind Republican system in which you’re not supposed to be talking about race in order to explain racism,” explained Itay Lotem senior lecturer of French language and culture at the University of Westminster He clarified that this “doesn’t mean you can’t talk about racism,” but that the existence of a  “so-called colorblind system” means that “there is no way to talk about race as a social structure that permeates society and therefore kind of creates racism.” Under such a system it is difficult to acknowledge problems such as institutional racism which might have played a significant role in Nahel’s death France’s history of colonialism, globalization, and immigration plays an important role in this feeling of not belonging. The French model of integration, which is more assimilationist compared to the North American pluralist model, has been criticized associate professor of sociology at the University of California second-generation immigrants from North Africa the theory behind the model matters less than its implementation noting that what this generation of immigrants desires is to have their individual differences while also being seen as French This idea is also expressed in the book “France,” where Dr Emile Chabal writes that “today’s ethnic minorities are not so much rejecting republicanism as demanding that it fulfills its promise.” Finally, socioeconomic factors play a significant role. When one stops living in bidonvilles groups of precarious houses built in the outskirts of a city and gains access to proper education and job opportunities who are relatively more accepted in French society than they were previously the case with descendants of the Maghreb is different since the Portuguese “are not really as racialized as people who came from Algeria.” Dr noting that the Portuguese “were Catholics the ethnic stigma was kind of washed away and they could pass as white and French.” Nevertheless it cannot be denied that socioeconomic disparities hinder this group’s success at integration lower wages and less skilled jobs are the norm for descendants of immigrants in the first round of the 2017 presidential elections — and especially worrying when 67% of active police officers did so “the law and order narrative tends to be right-wing/far-right.” From Vaulx-en-Velin to Nanterre: The Shadows of French Policing structural changes to address discrimination.  The Tradition and Nature of French Protests They failed to gain the magnitude of the 2005 protests when riots lasted for three weeks and the prime minister decreed “state of emergency.”  Solely the neighborhoods who identified themselves with Nahel’s situation protested and the protests occurred in a scattered and non-cohesive way they lacked the “kind of organizing you saw in the USA Black Lives Matter,” Etoke reflected noting that they resembled more an “urban rebellion” than traditional protests They were “organic and explosive,” and the angry youth were protesting against a whole state of affairs as there is no specific measure to be taken to address one particular issue nor one sole leader who can engage with the demands of the protestors The police killing of an adolescent in a suburb of Paris in broad daylight could alone be the reason for the protests that followed but the protests acquired proportions that went beyond Nahel’s death While I cannot say for sure why exactly the officer killed Nahel Beaman is of the opinion that “it’s the failure of France to see all of its population as fully French that ultimately killed him.” Judging from the protests that ensued it can be said that Nahel’s case reflects a France where the concept of “Liberty Fraternity” seems endangered by an unresolved contemporaneity and various perspectives on secularism are intertwined with racism socioeconomic discrepancies and polarization Macron has to find his way through a divided parliament and structural reforms are nowhere near to be seen I hope progress is made and that it does not take one more death for France to dignify all of its citizens one of the cities with excellent electric public transport adding to the 7 existing lines and the Rhonexpress line The network expansion plan continues apace: the last two lines were inaugurated on 22 November 2019 and 1 February 2021 respectively the new T9 tramway line will connect the Vaulx-en-Velin – La Soie multi-modal node with Charpennes node in about 35 minutes the higher education centres of Vaulx-en-Velin and the areas south and north of Vaulx-en-Velin and facilitating connections in this area The new line aims to support the urban renewal of the areas crosses and neighbourhoods such as La Soie in Vaulx-en-Velin the city centre and the Mas du Taureau and Les Buers and Saint-Jean in Villeurbanne; the living environment will be improved by upgrading and greening public spaces and providing new pavements and cycle paths the T9 line will offer the opportunity to quickly reach the centre of Lyon creating an interchange with metro lines A and B and tram lines T1 the Rhônexpress and the future extension of line T6.  and will have 12 new stations. The operating schedule envisages a passage every 10 minutes during peak hours about 38,000 passengers per day are expected.    EUR 290 million have been earmarked for the project Prior to the start of infrastructure work on the line refurbish or retrofit the underground networks for wastewater treatment district heating and other services involved Sytral Mobilités will pay particular attention to site safety and the impact on local traders and residents Access will thus be maintained for the duration of the works which are carried out under the project management of Sytral Mobilités special attention will be paid to finding the best solutions to support local residents and economic activities affected by the work Sytral Mobilités has implemented an important information system on the progress of the work: Signage tools will also be implemented in the field to inform people about maintaining access to businesses or traffic plans which will connect the interchange at Gare de Vénissieux (Metro D Tram T4 and others) with the so-called Gerland sector as a further cross-connection with a terminus at the Halle Tony Garnier station on the existing T1 tram line on which 22,000 daily passengers are expected in the future The T10 line will support the redevelopment of the Vénissieux and Saint-Fons neighbourhoods the transformation of the Arsenal and Carnot Parmentier priority neighbourhoods included in the ‘New National Urban Renewal Programme’ and the development of areas of economic and industrial activity As with all structuring projects by Sytral Mobilités the construction of the T10 tramway will be accompanied by the creation of cycle and pedestrian facilities along its entire route This project received financial support from the Rhône Méditerranée Corse water agency in the amount of EUR 1,298,000 excluding VAT The water agency is a public institution of the state that works to protect water and the environment It collects water taxes paid by all users and reinvests them from project owners (local authorities farmers and associations) according to the priorities set out in its ‘Save Water 2019-2024’ programme Alstom will soon begin delivering to Lyon the first of the 35

suburb of city French prosecutors are investigating the source of a pre-dawn blaze that killed 10 people in a dilapidated seven-storey block of flats in a Lyon suburb said at the scene of the fire on an estate in Vaulx-en-Velin that it was too early to draw conclusions about the cause but acknowledged the building housed a squat and was a known drug dealers’ hangout who he said arrived 12 minutes after being alerted soon after 3am and “were able to save 15 people by taking considerable risks to their own lives scaling the building from the outside … saving children and babies” including four who were still in a critical condition in hospital and about 100 residents were having to be rehoused The five children who died were aged between three and 15 The fire started on the ground floor of a seven-storey privately owned 1960s block of flats in the Mas du Taureau district of Vaulx-en-Velin Witnesses described panicked occupants of the building screaming for help as smoke billowed from the windows others stuck on the balconies and the firefighters had difficulty in intervening because of the trees,” Belal told Agence France-Presse it’s really terrible – I don’t have the words.” He said friends had told him they managed to catch a 10-year-old boy dropped from an upper floor by his mother The fire was first reported to emergency services at 3.12am and by 3.25am about 170 firefighters and 65 fire trucks were at the site Two of the 170 firefighters at the scene suffered light injuries while fighting the flames The Lyon prosecutor’s office said it was not ruling out any hypothesis Darmanin said several residents had previously complained to local authorities about drug dealing and squatters in the building “The police pressure on dealing locations is daily but unfortunately drugs are deeply entrenched in some areas of the country,” he said adding that drug dealers had been arrested near the building on Thursday night Residents were evacuated to a nearby municipal building and the education authority said psychologists would visit two local schools on Friday to provide counselling regional and national authorities were working to provide relief “at this very difficult moment” a former industrial area about 5km north of the wealthy centre of Lyon said the building that caught fire had undergone emergency repairs in 2019 but was noted as “rundown” by Lyon authorities who had earmarked it for renovation work in January said the tragedy should “encourage us to be more proactive as regards the safety of collective housing” and demanded a fire risk survey be carried out of all blocks of flats in the town France has suffered several deadly fires in recent decades A woman was subsequently jailed for starting the fire by throwing clothes on candles during an argument International climbing competitions have come a long way in the past few decades As we ready for this year’s IFSC World Cup season in which many Canadians will be heading overseas it’s important to know how far competition climbing has come gathered a group of the best climbers for an event called SportRoccia held at a natural crag in Valle Stretta It was the first organized Lead competition launching a new era of modern Sport Climbing Thousand of spectators were amazed by the victory of German athlete Stefan Glowacz 1986: The success was repeated the following year in 1986 when Arco di Trento became host to the second SportRoccia event The final was won by French superstar Patrick Edlinger and his compatriot Catherine Destivelle More than 10,000 people attended the finals including seven European television stations the French Federation organized the first indoor event at a gymnasium in Vaulx-en-Velin The potential future for Sport Climbing became clear as all climbers began to show interest in this new branch of their sport even those who appeared reluctant at first the French Federation and Paul Brasset lead a movement to convince the UIAA to officially recognize the competitive Sport Climbing circuit which had grown substantially with the addition of the World Series in 1988 and the first World Cup in Speed and Lead in 1989 Brasset created a new organization within the UIAA (formed by the CEC and CICE) that was responsible for training officials (judges and forerunners) and creating competition rules several large events were organized in all the main arenas of Europe it was decided that International events would be run only on artificial walls in order to eliminate any environmental impact 1991: The first World Championship was organized in Frankfurt 1992: The first Youth World Championship took place in Basel Large participation at the event demonstrated how popular Sport Climbing had become with the younger generation the ICC – International Council for Competition Climbing – was created inside the UIAA in order to guarantee sufficient autonomy to the sport and to provide it with the tools required for growth and development Bouldering was officially introduced as a new climbing discipline A test competition was organized dubbed the “Top Rock Challenge,” and its success lead to the creation of the World Cup in 1999 2000: The sport continued to grow with more than 45 countries regularly participating in official calendar events as well as other high profile International competitions It also sponsored promotional events for under-age kids (spiderkids) and amateurs more than 75 countries participate in climbing competitions held all over the world with the World Championships and Youth Championships being the most popular events Competition Climbing was added to events of the Duisburg World Games and the Asian Indoor Games to great fanfare the UIAA decided to end its governance of Competition Climbing and supported the creation of an independent International Federation to govern this sport The first International Paraclimbing Competition took place in Russia Athletes with a visual impairment and with a physical disability from Belarus Japan and Russia took part in the competitions Germany 57 Federations founded the International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) as well as the regulations of the new International Federation were adopted unanimously the AGFIS General Meeting accepted the IFSC as a new member the first IFSC Paraclimbing Cup was organized in Moscow within the IFSC Bouldering and Speed World Cup event Ukraine and Russia took part in the competitions the IOC gave definitive recognition to the IFSC officially welcoming it as part of the Olympic Family IFSC Paraclimbing Cup series was organized Thirty-eight climbers (26 men and 12 women) from Belarus Russia and Spain took part at the competitions 2011 the IOC Executive Board decided to include sport climbing on the short-list (with seven other sports) as a possible new event for the 2020 Olympic Games This was the start of a new millennium for Climbing The first IFSC Paraclimbing World Championships were organized within the program of the eleventh World Championships in July 2011 Climbers with and without a disability were fully involved in the event from the opening ceremony until the closing ceremony hirty-five athletes (30 men and 5 women) from eleven countries competed The Paraclimbing World Championships now takes place every two years 2013: Thanks to the shortlist for the 2020 Olympic

family by granting the IFSC the status of a “Recognised International Federation.” A post shared by SHAUNA COXSEY (@shaunacoxsey) on Feb 1 Get the digital edition of Gripped for your chosen platform: Japan would see the first example of Sport Climbing’s Combined Olympic format competitive climbing sought new methods for testing its athletes 1986 saw the first indoor climbing competition in Vaulx-en-Velin the French Federation would move to convince the UIAA to officially recognize a competitive Sport Climbing circuit The original Lead and Speed events would gain traction in the unbelievably niche sport Bouldering would join the World Cup Circuit competition climbing would become more popular the IOC gave definitive recognition to the International Federation of Sport Climbing climbing would find itself on the short list for the 2020 Olympic Games Sport Climbing would become an official addition to Tokyo’s newest events While many began to wonder what a post-Olympic world might look like for climbing athletes became primarily concerned with the fact that they would have to train their weakest disciplines climbers would compete in each of Sport Climbing’s three events or Boulder focused athletes to perform near the peak of their ability The Combined Olympic Format would force each athlete to train all three disciplines should they wish to be competitive This controversial decision faced resistance from the climbing community as the problem-solving nature of Lead and Boulder do not reflect Speed’s format While Boulder and Lead do differ from each other they feature more similarities than they do with Speed Speed requires a specific sort of muscle memory and power-training that many climbers do not feel necessary for Lead or Boulder the Combined Olympic Format features two rounds of competition The first round will include all 40 athletes 20 men and 20 women will compete each of the three disciplines These athletes will climb first in Speed then in Boulder and conclude their Qualification round in Lead The top eight competitors from this Qualification round will move on to Finals two days later Athletes will make Finals based on their Combined score following the qualification event Each athlete will first receive a ranking based on their performance in each individual discipline These rankings will multiply together to create their combined score their combined score would look like the following: 6 X 1 X 3 = 18 The athlete with the lowest combined score will rank in first position The athlete with the highest combined score will rank in the lowest position in a discipline will become necessary for any athlete hoping to make Finals in any of the disciplines might prevent an athlete from making Finals If someone were to score third in Boulder and third in Lead would make it difficult for them to qualify for the Final event it becomes easy to see how a first-place position in any of these three disciplines could become helpful for an athlete’s combined ranking most Olympic athletes have decided to focus on their strengths while maintaining a smaller amount of focus on their weaknesses How does a climber perform well in each discipline Speed Climbing revolves around a standardized 15-metre route This route has not changed in years and asks the athlete to climb to the top as quickly as possible climbers will get two attempts to establish their personal best Each climber’s fastest time will rank against the rest of the field the fastest time will rank in first position Those moving to Finals will only be selected after this result is combined with the athlete’s Boulder and Lead Qualification results Once the qualified competitors enter Finals athletes will compete in head-to-head races and a Final to accommodate all necessary head-to-head races All qualified athletes will then begin their Boulder Final Bouldering is a ropeless discipline described primarily by a few dynamic Each line of holds is called boulder problem Athletes first see these problems moments before climbing them they must solve the problem as quickly as they can and attempt to climb it to the top The flashy discipline easily offers the most physically demanding movements of the Sport Climbing competition the athletes aim to control the zone and the top The zone is often a hold in the middle of the route that gives the climber a half point If a climber has one top while another climber finishes the round with two zones the climber with the top will rank higher than the climber with two zones Although the both will have earned a single point tops have greater value than zones in the event of a tie competitors will receive a hard-five-minute period in which they may try to climb the boulder They have as many attempts as they would like to achieve the zone and the top The climber will not earn any further points on a problem once their time expires If a tie forms between two athletes as a result of their achieving the same number of tops and the same number of zones the number of attempts that they took to secure those tops and zones will then separate the athletes The climber with the most tops and zones in the fewest attempts will become the best ranked climber of that round The only differences between the Qualification and the Final rounds come in terms of time control and the number of boulder problems Where athletes have a five-minute time limit in the Qualification round the Final will feature three boulders as opposed to the four in the Qualification round Lead will conclude both the Qualification and Final rounds This roped discipline requires athletes to begin with their rope on the ground athletes clip carabiners called quickdraws They must clip every quickdraw before moving beyond it competitors receive a point for each hold they attain The climber that moves the highest on the route will achieve the most points if they make a movement toward the next hold before they fall Each climber has six minutes to climb the route They each get the opportunity to preview the route before heading into isolation or “Iso” The athletes wait for their turn in Iso based one when they qualified for the Games Each competitor has six minutes to climb their route and will only receive points for those holds reached within that time period The amount of time it takes a climber to reach the top of the route only becomes significant if two athletes tie in both the Qualification round and the Final Although the format of the Lead event remains the same between the Qualification and Final rounds For the Men, the Qualification event will begin at 4:00 am EST on August 3. The Final event will begin on August 5 at 4:30 am EST. For the Women, the Qualification event will begin on August 4 at 4:00 am EST. The Final event will begin on August 6 at 4:30 am EST.
