      Glow Takes Inspiration from Paris’ Nuit Blanche
      Tonight, the City of Santa Monica in California will launch an interactive light installation / art festival called, “Glow” and the pier and beach will literally glow all night long. Think of it as an all night psychedelic light party with media art, performances, music and sculpture installations. I couldn’t help writing about my old [...]

      Ariston Carte Blanche Brut - Sparkling Wine Review
      Our best deal in bubbles? No doubt many on our staff would say yes! It is made of 40% chardonnay, 30% pinot noir and 30% meunier. A balanced cuvee in every way, this Champagne is clean and powerful at once. The length of this little bottle of bubbles proves to me the class of its [...]

      Maison-Blanche 2008 : un show anti-démocratique
      repris du Réseau Voltaire: par Sandro Cruz* L’élection du président aux États-Unis, tous les quatre ans, est l’occasion d’un grand spectacle médiatique qui tient le monde en haleine. Ce système électoral fort complexe est contrôlé par l’oligarchie et donne l’illusion d’une souveraineté populaire contre laquelle il a [...]

      Rien ne va plus à la maison blanche
      Rien ne va plus pour l’administration terroriste et impérialiste états-unienne du génocidaire président George W. Bush. Son administration, comme l’ensemble de ses actions, n’ont pas valu les deux mandats, dont un possiblement volé, que la population états-unienne, cet immense prolétariat souvent ignoré, leur ont légué par la voie électoraliste. Un ancien porte-parole,

      Kart Blanche: Racing gas-powered karts is not just for kids anymore
      How did many of the world's top Nascar drivers hone their checkered-flag skills? Fishtailing around go-kart tracks, of course. And, the recently opened 100,000-square-foot Velocity 17 in New Jersey is righteous proving ground of your pole-position prowess too. It's 2000 foot Grand Prix kart racing track is stocked with hairpin turns, banked corners, chicanes, and lengthy straightways to top out the gas-powered karts at 30 mph -- but when you're swerving inside to block a would-be passer, you'd swear you were hitting triple digits. Keep in mind: These aren't your grandfather's go-karts (you need a real drivers license to drive the fast ones) and lucky for you, parks just like this one, are opening up throughout the U.S. So, even if you have no ambition to make the pro circuit, let alon

      Web 2.0 on Carte Blanche
      Last night Carte Blanche had an insert on web 2.0 featuring Rafiq and Dave. As I commented on Nic’s blog this morning, I was not overly impressed. In my opinion the content wasn’t well structured and I have a feeling that 80% of viewers still have no idea what web 2.0 is or how it can [...]

      La Maison-Blanche censure un témoignage sur les changements climatiques
      La Maison-Blanche a substantiellement modifié le témoignage de la directrice des centres de contrôle de la maladie devant le Congrès américain au sujet de l’impact des changements climatiques, en en retirant des références scientifiques aux dangers potentiels pour la santé, affirment deux sources familières avec les documents.   La docteure Julie Gerberding, qui dirige les centres de contrôle de la maladie (CDC) à Atlanta, a affirmé dans le cadre d’une audience du Sénat qu’il est à prévoir que les changements climatiques «auront toutes sortes d’impacts sur la santé des Américains».   Mais son témoignage s’est limité aux préparatifs des CDC, et comportait peu de détails sur les effets des changements climatiques sur la propagation des maladies. Ce n’est que lorsqu’elle a été interrogée qu’elle a décrit certaines maladies spécifiques susceptibles d’être affectées, sans élaborer.   Le té

      Nuit Blanche Paris 2007 (bis)
      I wrote a previous post about the Nuit Blanche Paris 2007.This 2007 edition will have Ingrid Betancourt as the main topic. It will follow the metro line 14 since a new station has been opened recently.Mediators will be placed in different points within the city. The people are students from Parisian schools and universities and are here to help you going around during that special night. They ill invite you to sign the petition to free Ingrid Betancourt.A special night transport network is set up during the Nuit Blanche, basically you are supposed to go home whenever you want, don't bother with metro schedule. Of course, line 14 will be open all night, since it's an automated line (a metro every 5 minutes).Think of Cool Velib' as well to go around in the city. It will be interesting to see if people will use this new transport during the evening.If you need to check the schedule for the Nuit Blanche, here is the programme.More news to come...

      Nuit Blanche Paris
      Five years after the city of Paris decided to launch "Nuit Blanche" (All-nighter in english), it became global (ok, almost global) with cities like Rio, Tokyo, Toronto or Montreal. But in Europe the phenomenon is more intense: different capitals decided to have a common theme, Roma, Brussells, Budapest, Madrid...It's free and open to everyone!The city gets all different, it's like being on a Saturday afternoon on Rue de Rivoli (meaning, sooooo crowded), except that it's dark and sometimes a little colder. It's very unexepected for the person who comes for the first time.Highly recommended!October 6th, 2007 -> Paris Nuit BlancheThanks to Oh for the picture

      Four Seasons Resort Provence at Terre Blanche
      Provence, France, probably isn't the first place you'd think of for a family vacation, but the Four Seasons Resort Provence at Terre Blanche caters successfully to both kids and adults. Its roomy villas (the smallest is 675 square feet) give families plenty of space to spread out. While a hotel counselor engages your children in these activities or a hotel baby sitter watches them, you can enjoy more adult forms of whoopee in the nearby towns of Cannes, St. Tropez and Monaco.

      Nuit blanche sur tableau noir
      This weekend on Mont-Royal st. is an artistic festival called "Sleepless night on black board" (the name has no sense translated). The famous street becomes pedestrian from De Lorimier to St-Hubert, which means you can walk on it for almost an hour, browsing from itinerant merchant to another. It is faboulos to see so many people walking in the middle of the street, which is colored by paintings all the way (it is sad we gotta walk on it).

      Domaine Jean Reverdy 2005 Sancerre La Reine Blanche
      Domaine Jean Reverdy has 30 acres of vineyards, 9 acres of them being Sauvigonon Blanc. The 2005 Sancerre Le Reine Blanche is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc from a single vineyard, the vines being 25 years or older. It has not seen oak and has not gone through malolactic fermantation.Pale straw in the glass. Citrus, green apple, floral note and a hint of grass on the nose. Citrus, apple and minerals play beautifully with the fresh acidity on the palate. This is a great little bottle of Sancerre. Not to much green vegetables and grass like you can find in some of them. Just a light, slightly fruity wine with great freshness from the lively, not at all tart, acidity.I bought this at my local grocery store for $18.99. A fair price. Find it at Wine-Searcher.com or WineZap.com from $16.99.Vote for my blog here and help me reach top 10 on The Blog TopI am now in top 13!

      Nuit Blanche (White Night) in Brussels
      This is the only video taken last weekend on our Brussels trip. I was standing in the middle of the Grote Markt in Brussels. The woman was on a platform illuminated by intense white lights. The building I pan to is the Brussels City Hall and as you can see it is illuminated by blue lights. Saturday, September 30th was Nuit Blanche or White Night in Brussels. There were many cultural events around the city that night.I just love this music. It is Arabic obviously and she has a beautiful voice. If anyone reading this blog knows Arabic and knows what she is singing about please leave a comment and enlighten us all.
