Easter symbol -- lamb historic building prestigious venue Festival d'Avignon? -- Pope's Palace The Massif Central (Occitan: Mass铆s Central / Mass铆s Centrau) is an elevated region in south-central France, consisting of mountains and plateaux. Subject to volcanism that has subsided in the last 10,000 years, these central mountains are separated from the Alps by a deep north-south cleft created by the Rh么ne River and known in French as the sillon rhodanien (literally "the furrow of the Rh么ne"). The French white plan (plan blanc) is, in France, the emergency plan to face a sudden increase of activity in an hospital, such as a massive arrival of casualties due to an accident or a disaster (who may come by their own means to the emergency department or are evacuated by a red plan), an epidemic or a lasting climatic event that becomes deadly for fragile people such as a heatwave. une virgule comma French newspaper -- La Monde Hot springs: Vichy (v沫sh`膿, Fr. v膿sh膿`), city (1990 pop. 28,048), Allier dept., central France, on the Allier River. Vichy's hot mineral springs have made it one of the foremost spas in Europe. In addition to bottled Vichy water, pharmaceuticals, clothing, and cosmetics are manufactured. The most famous tree of France is the Chapel-Oak of Allouville-Bellefosse, a small village not far from Rouen in Normandy. In fact it is more than a tree: it is a religious monument and an object of pilgrimage. The oak itself is one of the biggest and oldest trees of France, and in it are build two small chapels above each other. Together with the large wooden staircase leading up to the chapels the whole is one of the most curious Roman Catholique sanctuaries all over Europe. About the history is known a lot: in 1669 the priest of Allouville , Abbot Du D茅troit and father Du Cerceau decided to build a chapel in the already big and hollow oak, with a small altar with an image of the Virgin Mary. The chapel was dedicated to " Our Lady of Peace ". Later on a second chapel was arranged above the first and an entrance - staircase build. In it a hermit seems to have lived for some time. Siren: This form of siren was developed in 1819 by the French physicist Baron Charles Cagniard de la Tour (1779鈥?859). His original design used clockwork controlled by a descending weight to produce different rotation rates, and hence the various frequencies. The original siren had 100 holes, each 1/8 inch in diameter. Tomography: splinters), the French dermatologist A. Bocage (1892-1953), drafted during World War 1, came up with a real solution. By means of a stereographic radiographic procedure using complex trigonometric calculations, it was possible to determine the exact depth of a metal object in the patient鈥檚 body (Fig. 5). To avoid these strenuous calculations he developed a radiographic technique that made longitudinal sections of the body possible in order to choose a research plan. Even though the discovery was made during the first World War, Bocage didn鈥檛 submit his patent until 1921. Archeologist: Despite this solid foundation for future Pakistan studies, it is the field of archaeology which first attracted many French scholars. Their interest was due to the existence of the French Archaeological Mission in Afghanistan which was established in the 1930鈥檚.i Jean-Marie Casal, one of its members, published in 1956 an early paper on the relation between Afghanistan and Indian archaeology. Casal then turned to different sites located in the Indus valley, especially Mundigak and Amri. Camphor: Here we have a problem -- it was first synthesized by someone from Finland, not France! Camphor was first synthesized by Gustaf Komppa in 1903. Previously, some organic compounds (such as urea) had been synthesized in the laboratory as a proof of concept, but camphor was a scarce natural product with a worldwide demand. The synthesis was the first industrial total synthesis, when Komppa began industrial production in Tainionkoski, Finland in 1907. Telegraph: Try this link -- there are just TOO MANY names! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/telegraph#h... Repertory Theatre: Com茅die-Fran莽aise The oldest theater troupe in the western world and France鈥檚 most famous drama troupe. The Com茅die-Fran莽aise or Th茅芒tre Fran莽ais is the only state theatre in France. It is also one of the few to have its own troupe of actors. It is located in the Ier arrondissement of Paris. Steel: Possibly? In 1867, the German-British engineer Sir William Siemens introduced an improved puddling furnace 鈥?the regenerative furnace 鈥?that used brick heat exchangers to preheat the incoming air and conserve fuel. The next year Pierre and 脡mile Martin, French ironmasters who had licensed Siemens' furnace design, developed a method for measuring the carbon content of molten iron. Thus, the decarburization could be stopped at the steel stage rather than proceeding all the way to wrought iron. This open-hearth process coexisted in industrial practice with the Bessemer process for many years, but eventually proved more economical and displaced it. (now called Siemens-Martin steel process). Dry Cell Battery: Georges Leclanch茅 (1839 - September 14, 1882) was a French electrical engineer. He graduated from the 脡cole Centrale Paris engineering school in 1860. In 1866 he invented the Leclanch茅 cell, one of the first electrical batteries and the forerunner of the modern dry cell battery. OR Gaston Plant茅 (1834-1889) was a French physicist who invented the lead acid battery in 1859. The lead acid battery eventually became the first rechargeable electric battery marketed for commercial use. 1794 scientific school: Founded in 1794, the 脡cole Polytechnique, a state supported institution of higher education and research, is the most prestigious engineering Grande Ecole in France. The 脡cole trains the scientific, industrial and economic elite of the nation. <sigh -- enough for now -- maybe more later!> <Whew!
