Like all of Europe, France has some changes in store for visitors in 2008 -- starting at the top. France's newly elected president, Nicolas Sarkozy, and recently appointed prime minister, Francois Fillon, appear to be America-friendly, so we can expect no more cries for Freedom Fries from people who don't get out much.
By Biman Mukherji BANGALORE (Reuters) - France, which sold wheat to India for the first time last year, is hoping to become a long-term supplier to the South Asian nation, a senior industry official said on Friday. "It will all depend on the Indian crop," Francois Gatel, director of the Association for the International Promotion of French Grain, told Reuters in an interview on the sidelines of an international wheat conferene. Last year, India bought an estimated 200,000 tonnes to 300,000 tonnes of French-origin wheat, out of total contracted imports of about 1.8 million tonnes, although a large crop this year makes Indian imports unlikely. Gatel said France, which accounts for about 60 percent of European Union wheat exports, was likely to produce a larger crop this year than last, putting it in a stronger position to export. "Last year, we had a bad year. On an average we have 7 tonnes yield per hectare, but last year was about 6.5," Gatel said. &quo
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Senior Canadian officials will soon fly to Paris to negotiate the transfer of 700 French troops to southern Afghanistan, where Canada's military mission is based, CTV television said on Thursday. Canada says it will pull its 2,500 soldiers from the southern Afghan city of Kandahar on schedule next February unless NATO dispatches an extra 1,000 troops to the region. CTV said Canada would talk to France about providing a 700-soldier battle group. It gave no further details. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has called several NATO leaders in recent days -- including French President Nicolas Sarkozy -- to stress that other alliance members must do more to help Canada. "It should come as no surprise that officials are also following up on these discussions ... and we expect there to be more follow-up meetings to take place," said a Harper spokeswoman, but declined to give more details. Earlier in the day, France told a meeting of NATO defense ministers in

PARIS (Reuters) - A French government report called on Monday for stronger risk controls inside banks in the wake of the Societe Generale rogue trading scandal. The finance ministry report also recommended tougher standards for regulating operational risk, the vulnerability of banks to people and systems.

MUMBAI: In the global airline industry, it is the season of consolidation. Two of the world’s biggest carriers —Delta and Northwest Airlines — have just initiated merger talks. In Europe, the Italian government is finally exiting Alitalia and Lufthansa has just bought a stake in New York carrier JetBlue. Driven by high oil prices and competition, the new alliances are a quest for profitability. The situation is similar in India, and three of the largest groupings — Air India, Jet Airways and Kingfisher — are currently in the process of executing the mergers that took place in 2007. Airline mergers have historically had varying degrees of success, but the Air France-KLM merger, kicked off three years ago that led to the creation of Europe’s largest airline, stands out as a success. ET caught up with two of Air France’s top managers — Bruno Matheu, vice-president, marketing and network management and Jean-Louis Pinson, director, Asia Pacific — who were in Mumbai to cele

The Iraqi government has asked France to transfer Saddam Hussein’s frozen assets in Banque du France in the amount of 23.48 million euros in keeping with Security Council resolution 1483 from 2003. An Iraqi diplomat said France is the only country which has failed to unfreeze Saddam’s assets in its banks and criticized the government of former president Jacques Chirac for mishandling this matter.
A new analysis of amber fossils collected in France by biologists has led to the speculation that the country might once have been a Amazon-like jungle. According to a report in Live Science, the 55-milllion-year-old pieces of amber (fossilized tree sap) were found near the Oise River in northern France. The researchers stated that the amber likely dripped from a similar tree that once covered France millions of years before the continents drifted into their current positions. What led the researchers to theorize that France was once an Amazon-like dense tropical rainforest, is the discovery of a new organic compund in amber called “quesnoin”. Because the precursor of this organic compound exists only in sap produced by a tree currently growing only in Brazil’s Amazon rainforest, scientists came up with the obvious assumption. “The region corresponding to modern France could have been found in a geographically critical marshy

Valerie Begue of Reunion (a French overseas departed located in the Indian Ocean) was crowned the new Miss France 2008 last Saturday, December 8, 2007. She is 22 years old and stands 174 cm. The event was held at Dunkerque, France and telecast live by TF 1.
Valerie will now represent France in Miss Universe 2008 in Vietnam and Miss World 25 Zoom(s)
Miss France 2008, Valerie Begue, will not lose her crown, despite a controversy over the publication of some suggestive photos that appeared in a French magazine, the contest organizers have announced. However, Begue, who was on Dec 8, will not be permitted to participate in the Miss World contest, where she will be replaced by Miss New Caledonia. The controversial pictures were published on 21 December, prompting the president of the Miss France contest, Genevieve de Fontenay, to ask Begue, to surrender her title. However, Begue’s home island of Reunion, in the Indian Ocean, had campaigned in her favour, reports Times Online. On Dec 28, de Fontenay said that Begue could keep her crown "provided she does not participate in any international contests.” Begue said the outcome was "a compromise which satisfies all parties".

Ever since I had this dream about waking up in Paris, I decided to research more about France. It's a great country screaming with history, art and culture, and I just want to be part of it. Even before when I still had this travel blogging job, I always wrote about France and Paris mainly out of jealousy, since I've never been there.A France blog is one of the things I've been reading up on, since as a blogger, I know that people are usually more honest when it comes to their blogs. I'd like a personal perspective of how travelers found France and it's up and downs, as most travel websites usually sugarcoat things to entice people to book hotels with them.But one thing's for sure - if my husband and I decide to spend our annual trip to France instead of the other locations we initially had in mind, one of the things we'll definitely do is to get lost. It's the only true way to discover France secrets that no travel website or brochure has written about.

The second night of Villiers-le-Bel marks an escalation that the media and the government would probably prefer to hush up, but which may be the start of a new stage: the use of firearms. In truth, the surprise is not that the rioters began to use them, but first, that they hadn't done it sooner [...] and second, that they are still confining themselves to hunting rifles and lead shot. The suburbs however have been armed for a long time with caches of quality war weapons, lethal weapons, against which the bullet-proof vests will be useless.In other words the situation is explosive in both meanings of the word. It seems that from one riot to the next the techniques harden, the methods become more professional and the police and gendarmes will soon have to confront, if they have not already, experts in urban guerilla warfare [...]I am convinced that up until now we have been lucky that the thugs and future murderers in the suburbs have not yet dared to use their fire power.

Whoever would have guessed that if you put the head of a record shop in charge of a copyright review, the end results would be fixated on trying to preserve the status quo?That's what's happened in France, where Nicholas Sarkozy's government has adopted suggestions from a review run by Denis Olivennes, head of the FNAC chain, that will see tight punishments for file-sharers. A proposed government body will demand ISP user details, with heavy users being investigated on the assumption that they might be up to something wrong.We're not quite sure how the presumption of guilt sits with the usual way things are meant to work.If you're "caught" three times, you'll be cast off the internet.It's not just Olivennes' financial interest in eking out the sale of physical products for as long as possible which suggests he might not have been the most impartial chap to carry out such a review: he wrote Free is Theft which, according to the FT:accused ISPs of exploiting an abundance of pirated mater
