Does any one else think Eva Green's GORGEOUS face doesn't feel "Frenchy"? Like your typical pretty French girl doesn't have the same type of beauty, hell even most hottie actresses from France like Sophie Marceau and Catherine Deneuve? She really does resemble Anglo-Saxon Beauty features IMO!
Or to be more specific Anglo-Celtic with a much more pronounced Germanic than your typical British and dominantly Irish American movie star Goddesses like Gene Tierney, Elizabeth Taylor, and Audrey Hepburn. Even if I never seen Casino Royale and thus was ignorant of her British accent in English films, just by face alone I would have mistaken her as having ancestry from a Germanic country like England since she at first glance makes me think of a mix of Gene Tierney (American 1940s A Movie Star with mostly Celtic ancestry with a bit of English which shows so much in her face), Katherine Hepburn (mostly of WASP bloodline), and Marlene Dietrich (Germany's greatest movie star) may be also with a bit of Sweden's Ingrid Bergman added in. So I don't get that "French vibe" from Eva but instead feel like her face is very Anglo-Saxon. At the core Germanic with the more Nordic features of a very specific regional variety of British populace with some Celtic features added in. Of course I know France is diverse with many people in Normandy looking very Scandinavian, people in the South having a very Latin face, in some regions even Middle Eastern vibe to their physical features, Central France full of brunette with brown eyes and fair skin, etc. But it makes me wonder how much Norman blood she has in her? I seen her type of beauty most common in the North of France esp the borders of Germany and near Belgian esp Dutch-esque populations!!

The trade unionist was warned six months before his assassination that there was a death contract on his life
Christian Poucet was the national secretary of the Confederation of Defence Traders and Craftsmen CDCA in France from 1985 to 1996 and President of the European Confederation of Defence Traders, artisans, farmers, and professionals CDCAE from 1992 to 2001. He was of Spanish descent. His family moved to France when he was three years old. His father owned two shoe shops in Grand-Motte and after his father died, Christian initially took over the business. He was 45 years old at the time of his death. He married his wife Juliette only four months before his death. He also had a daughter Alexandra, who was sixteen at the time if his assassination. He was a very charismatic and controversial leader. He has gradually attracted tens of thousands of members across France. Also, he had many critics within the CDCA. He campaigned for the end of the monopoly of Social Security, especially for the self-employed, traders craftsmen, farmers, and the liberal professions. He initiated the first European appeal to demand the abolishment of the Social security compulsory contributions but he lost the Judgement. Christian aimed at denouncing the social contributions levied on traders by the state and created a parallel system. So by paying him a commission the companies were relocated to Dublin, Madeira and elsewhere in order to avoid paying the taxman in France. This caused the investigation of his affairs by the Financial Brigade. On December 3, 1996, he was sentenced to a year in jail for ‘acquisition and possession of weapons’ after a search was conducted at his home as part of the above mentioned Financial Investigation, as well as for ‘death threats’. Two shooters On the morning of January 29, 2001, at about 9.45 am he drove to his office, the Centre for offshoring and International consulting, in Baillargue near Montpellier in Herault. Still holding on to his car keys he received a call from a friend, Pierre Verot, who the day after Christian’s assassination became the new president of the CDCA. Two masked individuals walked into his office passing in front of the secretary and firing bullets of high caliber simultaneously with two different types of guns, shot him to death. The two shooters, dressed in black, rushed outside and got into their dark-colored BMW, speeding away. Neither Pierre, who was still on the line nor any of the four employees inside the offices heard any noise coming from the gunshots. The authorities were puzzled why the shooters didn’t kill him in the parking but chose to shoot him in his office with four other employees there. They must have been waiting for him in the parking since the employees didn’t hear any noise coming from a car arriving. The shooters knew the layout of the office. Perhaps they wanted the killing to be witnessed. Also on that day, he drove to his private office in Baillarque and not the CDCA offices in Montpellier as usual. Regarding the fact that there were two assassins perhaps it was a syndicate killing commissioned by a well-organized group. Death Contract Christian was warned about 6 months prior to his assassination that there was a death contract on his life. In the beginning, he started taking precautions but after a while, he got along with his life as usual. He refused to have any type of security with him. Fast cars airplane and casinos Christian started earning a lot of money and his lifestyle started to change. He owned a Corvette and a small plane. He had to be on time for meetings in different parts of the country on the same day. He also frequented casinos and played the roulette. After his death, police found that he frequented about a dozen casinos in the area and apparently he lost a lot of money in gambling during his last two years. According to one source, the sum was estimated to be in the region of 300,000 Euros. His standard of living was much higher compared to his declared income. He was also very close, politically, to the extreme right. Bizarre accident Four months before Christian’s assassination, Philippe Wargnier, a close associate, an insurance broker in Avignon who was also a relative had a bizarre accident. Philippe, who was an experienced pilot, got in his plane at the airport of Montpellier to fly. As soon as he took off, his plane crashed and he was killed. The conclusion of the accident investigation was that there was not any fuel in the two tanks of his airplane and it was an accident. So within four months, the top men of CDCA were both dead. The Madeira connection Authorities for years have focused on the small Portuguese island of Madeira, in the Funchal, a tax-free zone, where various companies were registered and operating for the CDCA. Suspicion for the involvement in the assassination of Christian fell on a woman who was the executive handling the funds within the offshore companies there and with whom Christian had many differences. It has been very difficult for the authorities to trace the trail of money from these offshore companies through various countries and various companies and who benefited financially from the death of Christian Poucet. The trade union was run more like a financial institution than a trade union and the only person who knew exactly what was happening with the financials was Christian who wasn't giving much information. Also, they have investigated whether somebody within CDCA wanted him dead but they couldn't find any leads regarding this. Dr. Yves Godard Dr. Godard and his two children vanished in 1999 whilst onboard a rented sailboat. He was an active member of CDCA and one of the two top CDCA people in Normandy. Years later a skull belonging to one of his children as well as some bones belonging to him were found off the north coast of Brittany. In 2011, a book was published by Eric Lemasson titled ‘The assassination of Dr. Godard’. Inside the book, the writer relates the death of Dr. Godard to a financial trail and the mafia based on a series of assassinations within the CDCA. He doesn’t provide any evidence though substantiating his claims. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godard_family_disappearance Investigators in Montpellier found no connection between the cases of Yves Godard and Christian Poucet.

With another month over, it’s time for another release, and MAME 0.209 is sure to have something to interest everyone. We’ve cracked the encryption on the Fun World CPU blocks, making Fun World Quiz, Joker Card, Mega Card, Power Card, Multi Win, Saloon and Nevada playable. Regular contributor shattered has added Кузьмич-Егорыч (Kuzmich-Egorych), a Russian Mario Brothers bootleg running on heavily modified Apple II hardware. In other Apple II news, CD-ROM drives now work with the Apple II SCSI card, and another batch of cleanly cracked floppies has been added to the software list. The NES SimCity prototype has been added to the software list, along with MMC5 improvements to support it, and better emulation for Famicom cartridges with on-board sound chips. Henrik Algestam has continued his Game & Watch work, bringing Popeye (wide screen) and Zelda to MAME. Chess computer support has been expanded with Fidelity Chess Challenger 3, and additional versions of Applied Concepts Boris, and Novag Super Expert and Super Forte. Newly supported arcade games include Akka Arrh (an Atari title that failed location testing), Little Casino II, a French version of Empire City: 1931, and additional versions of Dock Man and Street Heat. A better LM3900 op-amp model means Money Money and Jack Rabbit are no longer missing the cassa (bass drum) channel, and mixing between music and speech is improved. Bug fixes include the Rockwell AIM 65 being returned to working order, working support for multiple light guns on Linux from Kiall, corrected screen freeze behaviour on Deniam hardware from cam900, and better flashing characters on the Sinclair QL from vilcans. You can get the source and Windows binary packages from the download page.

Best Places to Visit in France. If You had travel France how was your experience as a tourist.
Paris 📷It could not be possible to write about travel in France, without stating any of the Paris tourist places? From the Eiffel Tower, Louvre and Musee d’Orsay to Notre Dame Cathedral, Ile de la Cité, and Moulin Rouge, the French capital houses some of the most visited tourist attractions in Europe. Originally a tiny island on the Seine River, today Paris has evolved into a traveller’s delight. While it’s a good idea to opt for a Paris tour package that covers all the highlights of Paris tourism, do remember to spare some time to simply soak in the spirit of the place. Because, honestly, there’s no place quite like Paris!
Pont du Gard📷 The Pont du Gard, South of France, is probably one of the most famous Roman monuments outside of Rome. This extraordinary Roman aqueduct is located just north of Nimes. The Pont du Gard is one of 4 UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the South of France. Complete with an excellent visitors centre and Mediterranean garden, the Pont du Gard, is a special place to visit in France. One of my favourite days out with the kids is head off to the beautiful town of Uzes, 15kms to the west of the Pont du Gard. We like to potter around in the town and grab some lunch in one of the pavement restaurants in the main square.
The Gorges du Verdon📷 Europe’s answer to the grand canyon, this deep cliff gorge located in the Provence region is a visitor hot spot. Here you’ll find bright turquoise green waters, outstanding scenery and an abundance of wildlife – it’s not difficult to see why this gorge is so popular. Easily accessible from the French Riviera, the national park is a great spot to climb, hike, kayak or just go for a scenic drive.
Provence To witness gorgeous stretches of lavender flowers and lush olive groves, head to Provence, one of the most famous regions in France. If time is not a constraint, it’s recommended that you spend a couple of serene hours at the Sénanque Abbey, a 12th-century church near Gordes. And then, there are tourist trips to picturesque villages of Baux-de-Provence, St. Rémy, and Avignon. You’ll see imposing mountains, magnificent ancient architecture, and, yes, many, many vineyards!
Monte Carlo📷 I know it is not strictly French, but you have to include Monte Carlo, Monaco in any list of places to visit in France. This tiny but wealthy Principality, covering just one square mile, is the World's smallest Sovereign state after the Vatican. When the state was faced with bankruptcy in 1848, the then Prince of Monaco (Charles III), decided to open a casino. The profits of the famous casino soon proved to be so large that all taxes were abolished and the grateful citizens renamed the hill by the casino 'Monte Carlo' (Mount Charles). Today it is a glitzy place, home of not just the rich and famous but also a legendary Grand Prix. If you get beyond all the enormous yachts and showy jewellery shops, I have always found Monte Carlo quite pleasant to walk around and not too expensive. The view from the top of the Monte Carlo hill up near the castle is absolutely amazing.
Giverny📷 Giverny is a riverside rural idyll located on the borders of Normandy which is most famous for being the birthplace of impressionism. The small village was once Claude Monet’s cherished country retreat and now both his pink shutterboard house and highly photogenic country gardens are open to the public. Planted by Monet himself, the walled water garden (which inspired so many of his famous paintings) features white and purple wisterias, water lilies, weeping willows, bamboo and the iconic green Japanese bridge.
Annecy📷 Which is the most photogenic place in France? It’s a tough call, but many would vouch for Annecy, popularly known as the ‘Venice of Savoie’. Peppered with small canals and a 14th-century Chateau (Palais de l’Isle) right at the centre, Annecy is the kind of place that has managed to stay untouched by time. As you walk down the narrow cobbled streets in the old town, surrounded by a huge lake and snowy mountains, you’ll understand why Annecy is so special.
Strasbourg📷 Located right on the border of Germany and France this heritage city has distinct characteristics of both countries. It’s a picturesque, almost twee town radiating an old world charm which really draws the visitors. Famous for its riverfront half-timbered houses, beautiful gothic cathedral and fondness for flowers, it also makes a great base for those wishing to visit the nearby Black Forest or the River Rhine.
Nice Cannes📷 If you think of the South of France, then Nice and Cannes spring automatically to mind. Along the 120km coast of the Cote d'Azur, there are many places to stop off and enjoy, such as St Tropez (see below), Frejus, Sainte-Maxime, Cap Ferrat and Cassis; but Cannes with its international film festival and Nice with its exotic buildings and promenade have the wow factor. With its broad avenues, wide sweeping bay and golden beach it is not difficult to see why some 3 million people flock to Nice every year. The long sweep of the Baie des Anges is a magnificent beach, bordered by the Promenade des Anglais - named after the first tourists who came here in the late 18th century and began to transform this once sleepy fishing port into the Mediterranean's premier resort. Only Paris rivals it as a tourist attraction. Equally so, Cannes with its 3 local beaches, narrow streets and celebrity visitors is an excellent base for exploring the South of France.
Mont Saint-Michel Second only to the Eiffel Tower as France’s best-loved landmark, Mont St-Michel is rocky, peaked island which is connected by a causeway to northwest France. An imposing sight sitting amid sandbanks and powerful tides, the heritage site is most celebrated for its Gothic-style Benedictine abbey. Directly below the grand monastery is a medieval village complete with winding streets, small houses and souvenir shops. The island is accessible at all times except when the tide is very high.

With another month over, it’s time for another release, and MAME 0.209 is sure to have something to interest everyone. We’ve cracked the encryption on the Fun World CPU blocks, making Fun World Quiz, Joker Card, Mega Card, Power Card, Multi Win, Saloon and Nevada playable. Regular contributor shattered has added Кузьмич-Егорыч (Kuzmich-Egorych), a Russian Mario Brothers bootleg running on heavily modified Apple II hardware. In other Apple II news, CD-ROM drives now work with the Apple II SCSI card, and another batch of cleanly cracked floppies has been added to the software list. The NES SimCity prototype has been added to the software list, along with MMC5 improvements to support it, and better emulation for Famicom cartridges with on-board sound chips. Henrik Algestam has continued his Game & Watch work, bringing Popeye (wide screen) and Zelda to MAME. Chess computer support has been expanded with Fidelity Chess Challenger 3, and additional versions of Applied Concepts Boris, and Novag Super Expert and Super Forte. Newly supported arcade games include Akka Arrh (an Atari title that failed location testing), Little Casino II, a French version of Empire City: 1931, and additional versions of Dock Man and Street Heat. A better LM3900 op-amp model means Money Money and Jack Rabbit are no longer missing the cassa (bass drum) channel, and mixing between music and speech is improved. Bug fixes include the Rockwell AIM 65 being returned to working order, working support for multiple light guns on Linux from Kiall, corrected screen freeze behaviour on Deniam hardware from cam900, and better flashing characters on the Sinclair QL from vilcans. You can get the source and Windows binary packages from the download page.

Le premier casino fut établi en 1822 grâce au comte de Brancas, sous-préfet de la ville. En 1857, un nouveau casino avec voûtes et toits de verre fut édifié sur le modèle des grands palais de verre des expositions internationales. Le 15 juin 1886, le casino mauresque lui succède et donne alors à Dieppe son image de marque.
