On Wednesday, Trump ordered an investigation into France's planned "digital
tax" on tech companies. The 3% tax would apply to the French revenues of
roughly 30 major companies, mostly from the U.S. "France is sovereign, and
France decides its own tax rules. And this will continue to be the case,"
France's Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said in a statement. He added the U
.S. and France could find agreements, rather than using threats, to reach a
deal on the "fair taxation" of internet giants.

PARIS (AFP) – French President Nicolas Sarkozy declared Thursday that
multiculturalism had failed, joining a growing number of world leaders or ex

"My answer is clearly yes, it is a failure," he said in a television

Downgrade of Debt Ratings Underscores Europe’s Woes
By LIZ ALDERMAN and RACHEL DONADIO
PARIS — Standard & Poor’s downgraded the credit ratings of France, Italy
and seven other European countries on Friday, a move that may have more
symbolic than fundamental financial impact but served as a reminder that
Europe’s economic woes were far from over.
Another memory jog came Friday from Greece, the original source of Europe’s
debt troubles. Talks hit a snag between the new Greek government and the

Secret slush funds dominate French politics to an extent that makes the
Tories' funding troubles seem pedestrian
Allegations of a funding scandal within Britain's Conservative party have
barely been reported in France. That intimate soirées chez David and

the prime minister's career fund is considered trivial in a country where a

November 23, 2012
Some people miss the 1950s because of the era’s simple pleasures like
Twinkies and Howdy Doody. Paul Krugman misses the decade’s high tax rates
on the rich. In a recent column, he harks back to the days of drive-in
movies and Pat Boone for lessons he says “remain relevant” – namely that
an economy can prosper even with extraordinarily high taxes. More broadly,
Mr. Krugman argues that the postwar years show that you can “have

CNN Caught Red-Handed Lying About French ‘No-Go Zones’ Debate

Early this week CNN went after Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal after he
insisted that there are “no-go zones” in France, parts of France filled

and attacked the Gov. for saying there was. But for months CNN has said

又看到有人提到纳豆与狒狒的对战记录,就到官网上去复习了一下,总结如下:
1. 总记录是18:10,纳豆占优。泥地交手14次,12:2;其余14次,6:8.
2. 04-07交手14次,8:6,泥地7次,6:1,其余7次,2:5.
3. 08-12交手14次,10:4,泥地7次,6:1,其余7次,4:3
4. 两段时期纳豆各有一次5连胜。前一次是4场泥地加上迪拜,后一次是3场泥地加上温
网和澳网。
我的看法:
1. 不管你怎么辩,这个记录对老费不可能有利。虽然记录的一边倒主要是因为纳豆在
红土上的无敌,但总体上老费在其它场地并没有能找回多少场子,尤其是在自己的巅峰
期,纳豆刚出来时就输了迈阿密和迪拜。作为对比,小德在红土上同样是2:13落后,
但在硬地上以10:4领先,总的记录就不是那么难看了。如果当初老费那两场能拿下(
按当时的实力应该是可以的),那么记录也会好看点;可惜没有如果,所以奶粉不要怪
纳豆不给老费机会,而应该怪老费自己轻敌。
2. 08以后,老费开始下坡,而纳豆步入巅峰,这时老费不仅在泥地打不过,在其它场
地也难说优势了,输了温网和两次澳网。纳豆的年龄优势在那儿,这个记录只... 阅读全帖

九一一事件与珍珠港事件一样都是没有预警的突然袭击。两个事件凸现出情报工作的重
要性。珍珠港事件前,美国没有一个统一的情报收集系统。罗斯福总统曾抱怨送到他办
公桌上的情报蔓无头绪,不知所云。珍珠港事件的一个直接后果便是成立“战略服务处
”(the Office of Strategic Services 或简称 OSS),负责整合美国的情报收集工作
。1947年7月,OSS变成了CIA (the Central Intelligence Agency), 即大名鼎鼎的“
中央情报局”。
既然叫“情报局”,其基本职能就应该是收集、整理、分析、评估各方情报。但中央情
报局在这方面表现似乎差强人意。远的不说,它事先对洛克比空难、九三年的纽约世贸
大厦爆炸案、美国驻肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚大使馆爆炸案、美军舰在亚丁港的爆炸案就毫不

首先,
France, Spain and Italy also wouldn't let the plane enter their airspace,
Bolivian officials said. Such restrictions would cut off any direct path
from Austria to Bolivia
然后,
Late Wednesday morning, Spain agreed to let Morales' plane stop in the
Canary Islands on its way home, the Spanish Foreign Ministry said. The plane
landed there as planned Wednesday afternoon, and subsequently took off for
Fortaleza, Brazil, the final stop before returning to Bolivia

permission as soon as he knew it was Mr Morales' plane.
