Saïd Naceri did something aggressive, dangerous and stupid.
So, as he leaves in the same area of Paris as I do, and as that is nice from him to stay in this area (which is not the richest of Paris, and he can surely buy a flat/house somewhere better), I will pay one nasty tax to the ridiculous french administration.
I hope the police will be a bit nicer to him after his aggressive attitude.
And I hope that the police understands that this actor, when keeping a home in this area, is helping this area to be more "normal" and more "pleasant". And that it deserves some form of forgiveness.

They are searching for uranium again.
As far as we understand its cycle, the regeneration of uranium (in the deep deep inside earth) is very slow (or maybe even no more happening).

And we dig quicker and quicker.
And each generation who arrives will get more and more worried (what happens when no uranium remains ?). And more and more violent against the older generations.

Let's dig. Graves.

I got cold yesterday when walking in the forest.
It was fine this morning, but I feel it now.
My head is warm, and my eyes are dry :( I will have to sleep with a scarf, and that is not pleasant.

I could see a small Irminsul, on an ancient metal fibula.
If it was really this shape, exactly this shape, I have no meaning of what it was (except maybe a kind of tree).

Also I could read about the great saxons.
If they were so much nationalists, proudly anti-romans, I wonder why they worked as mercenaries sometimes in the roman armies.
If they were not nationalist, but proud warriors, I wonder why they worked only sometimes as mercenaries in the roman armies, and not often.

USans didn't want to reduce much their stock of nuclear bombs.
They had 20 easy years of growth and they failed.
Russians failed too, but Russia is not a democracy.

So first we suppress the useless growth.
Secondly, we will prepare the minds of humans. At least one nuclear bomb will destroy another city before 2050. Concerning Gods, it is too late to prevent it. We can only help humans to prepare their moral for this moment, and to stand the pain.

The french government wants to "enter the capital" (get some part of the company, a bit like the terrible idea of Marx, but here, it is not at all communist) of the two french car companies.

It is an habit of "liberals" here. They like liberalism when the situation is easy.
When the situation is complicated, they say "the State will save you, and the State buys the unhealthy companies, and inject much money (collected through taxes on all citizens or all other companies) into these companies".

Why not. It is not at all liberalism, but why not.
Why not ? Because 2 french car companies is too much in regard considering the size of our country, and considering our car exportations.
And we are no more like in the 1980s. Today the State is poor and the economy is really bad, so the State can't raise taxes.
So it is time to consider another possibility. Keep just one car company, and make it strong. The second one, close it (and maybe do something different for its few plants in other countries, maybe just sell them ?).

It is a hard and rude decision.
France could support it. Also the employees of the car companies could support it, if we introduce some kind of solidarity in our country. Solidarity for everybody. Not just more teachers for not-serious young people, and more financial help for women so that they get more children.

During one year, we heard much in France about hostages in Colombia.
Then they liberated a few of the many existing hostages, including a bi-something franco-colombian hostage.
And now it is finished. We don't hear about Colombia any more.

As the FARC are marxists, and as they had much free time, they probably did read economical books (including all the austrian ones, including the not marxist ones). And maybe they could help to fix the situation ?
Exchange hostages against knowledge ?
(and send Trichet in the middle of the jungle with a medicine pack, 1000 rations of food of the army, a map, a compass, and a Rubik's Cube for the long boring evenings ?)

It seems that ecologist groups exagerate the danger for Nature, danger coming from the 2014 winter olympic games.
I hope that Russia will follow their advices, and even do more. I hope Russia will not host the winter olympic games.

Olympic games now are marketing and money.

I hope Russia will find other ways, without capitalism, to develop its culture and to develop its relation to snowy and wild mountains.

And then, the westerner ecologist groups will care a bit more for the situation in many other places. The fast developping and polluting China, or mines in South Africa, or plains and deserts of Australia, or ski stations (in mountains that once were without humans) all over western Europe.
I feel now more sick with the idea of skiing again once in my life. I thank all members of ecologists who go skiing once or twice a year when they live in Europe or in the USA.

The link

I am bored with racist immigrants.
Yazid Sabeg, a member of the actual government (yet not minister, something "under") notices that some immigrants don't find a job in the french society. And that some companies also rather give job to not-immigrant people.
That is true.

But most stay in France, and the question is : why ?
The answer is simple : good public (free) education, financial help for each child, financial help for each unemployed person.
Plus good medical care, not much expensive, and it is even free for an unemployed person.

Yazid Sabeg compares France to apartheid !
But why does he stay ?
With his name (and face, I saw the photo), he probably came from a muslim country. Why does he not go back there ?
He is a personnal relation of Sarkozy. Friend is probably too much, just relation, "we are a network, we help each other". He probably stays here for that reason.

Also, I don't stay in France for these material advantages.
I touched some money as unemployed person just for a few months (7 or 8). I asked for it only when I was really searching for a job.
Today, I don't search for a job here. So I don't want of this help.
And I have no social security (but I have some money, a family that helps me, and I know that most hopitals here try to help for big problems).
So I think I am allowed to judge or to criticize.

I am not thinking that the help should disappear for unemployed people, or that schools should cost much. I just think that this man is lying, and insulting the State of his "relation" Sarkozy.

Oh, and I stay for the libraries. They are free for me like for any immigrant.
Also, we have great museums that cost little (less than an entrance for the movies, and also free for some categories of people).
Of course, that is nothing for this mister Sabeg. He is rich, and he visits the private collections of his rich friends. And he does not read books, because it is old-fashion, and he justs uses computers and phones.

I think I understand a bit what some negationists think about the word "extermination" of "extermination camps".
Just exterminating small animals, with pesticide, in order to clean the bodies.

It is sad, but it is wrong. These chambers were used also to kill humans, simply.
Maybe exterminating-only-the-small-animals was the goal at some moments during the war, the goal of these camps, but when and why were they used for another goal, serious honest historians could study the question.
Also there is nothing to be proud of about killing small animals so much. I don't like them near me either, but I try to keep some places for them. Yes, ok, that is less important than killing humans, because, in this world, killing a very different race of animal is easier (for humans and for other animals).
So the gas chambers were used to kill humans. Simple. Not during all their year of "service". But during some moments, yes, they were. Horrible, simple.

One year ago, a train driver (an employee of the train company) "robbed" a locomotive.
He started it, and advanced for 3 minutes at 3 kilometers/hour with it. And stopped it near a road (his car was probably parked there).
He was a bit depressed, and was a bit angry against the company. But it seems he was careful (3 kilometers/hour is ...slow).
He advanced the train for 200 meters (probably the distance between the front part of the platform, and the road) !

A judge has decided.
He is responsible of being a danger to other people (called "mise en danger de la vie d'autrui" in France).
The sentence : 6 months of jail (+ something else, but much less important)
Also he has lost his job.

Since years, french politicians rob money. Very few went to jail.
Kerviel, who created a loss of more than 1 billion euro in a bank is not yet in jail.
A judge who gave to the media secret documents (part of a justice procedure), when the former prime minister Villepin asked him for an investigation, is not in jail. And not even accused. Maybe these documents were robbed in his office (a foreign norwegian judge reports that happened sometimes 5 years ago here :( ). But probably not, because this judge never told it. He is not in jail, because he is judge, and some judges think "placing a judge in jail is like an insult to justice".
Of course, placing an employee of a train company in jail, just when all these employees are speaking (this month) about strike, is much more fair and normal.

Country of assholes. Good libraries but assholes among judges.

It seems that somebody helped Erdogan.
This person, who during year, cared mostly for the clothes of women, and for rodeos, is probably unable of a clever attitude, by himself.
It is a bit sad. It is sad, because only Erdogan, one of the most stupid, had a correct attitude.

In fact, that was simple.

The first question is : why did Israel used special weapons ?
World leaders can't answer now, because they wait for the documents from specialists, and because Israel refuses to open the documents of its own army.
So, why speak now ?

I am reading a short article about Dita von Teese.

It is interesting.
Bodies have shapes, and some of us appreciate their own shapes (everybody should appreciate a bit his/her own shapes, but some appreciate more than others), and some appreciate the shapes of others.
So it is a reality, and it is true, it can be nice sometimes.
Appreciating shapes during a public exhibition, some do, and some like me do it less, but I see nothing shocking if those who like it enjoy it.

I am angry because of her name.
The name "von Treese" does not exist, or it is certainly very very rare.
Because the common form is "van Treese".
(there is "von Tress", but I don't find through internet a "von Treese")
On wikipedia, they say "she picked von Treese out from the phone book, but it was mispelled" (by a journalist, who changed it into von Teese).
Hum. I wonder how many "von Treese" can be found in a phonebook.
"van Treese", yes. But "von Treese", hum.

Secondly.
What is 'von' or 'van' ?
It is the equivalent of "de" in french, that means aristocrat.

Here, there were stories about aristocrats, around 1800. Some aristocrats were "trying" perversity, and some in really annoying ways (for example, the marquis de Sade).
So Dita von Teese selects an aristocratic (stage) name. And then she comes to a country where part of aristocracy developped perversion (and not the taste for pretty shapes).
Is it a mistake ?
Is it her real personnality ?

Iran launches its first satellite.
In the actual atmosphere, and because Iran gave support to Hamas yesterday, it creates fears in some countries. Because Iran will learn about ballistic, and this science also helps for missiles.

Was there a way to avoid it ?
Yes, propose a reserved access to Iran on European or American or Chinese or Russian or Israelian (or...) satellites.
Reserved access for placing instruments and for transfering data.
Reserved, that means "we don't spy at all".

"no spying" is a dream in the world of technological race. So Iran develops ballistic.

Some french universities don't respect the law.
From some of them, I (or anyone) can download electronic reproduction of old thesis, without the agreement of the author.
The university stores the thesis, it is not allowed to publish them on internet, not just like that, just when they wish it, and without contacting the author.

Of course, nobody detects the problem.

Sarkozy goes to Bagdad.
Why now ?
During 6 months, France was representing european union, and Sarkozy didn't go.
Why go now ?
There is no reason to go there, without a form of authority. Either UN, either European.
