It's not so unusually hight priced for France. A season is usally split in two boxset at 29 or 39 the boxset. You only lost the opportunity to rip share the DVD, and the French dub ( not a big lose for Heroes ).
Geek don't eat, don't sleep and don't have social liffe.
Regular worker are submit to the 6-7 hours lag between France and USA.
Most of the regular French pirates don't care about subtitle anyway.
Yes, we know how to use a proxy.
Tor exit node aren't all located in the US, in fact really few are in the US.
Finding a proxy with enough bandwidth (not overwhelmed by peer to peer traffic) for VOD, isn't that easy.
French are number one for piracies in Europe, it's faster and more easy to download it from a friend than from the US.
What's you call carbon fiber is in fact composite material made of resin and carbon fiber. When the resin isn't hardened this material is flexible like leather.
Many flexible tool are made of composite with carbon fiber, like arc, suspension, etc...
Carbon fiber aren't use alone, their are a lot of different type of composite material that use carbon fiber with really different property.
I live in french, in the middle of beet field. I have a package of 24Mb down 2Mb up, nearly hundred channels, VOIP, and a Wifi DSL2+ terminal/modem for 29 including fees taxes and terminal rent.
In the Business Week article Krugman mentions, it states that ~52% of French broadband connections are used for VoIP, and he states that they also use it for internet TV. How is cell phone usage in France? Are people using VoIP in place of cell phones? Are they using their connections for TV in place of another provider? It sounds like they use their connections for more than we do. 1) Many company use VOIP in France because it's nearly free, many immigrant use it because it's really low price for intercontinental call.
2) You can gate more TV channel on your internet "box" ( in french box is now mainly use for VOIP, VOD, Wifi, etc DSL Modm ) than on national broadcast system. Some provided event offers public broadcast channel (http://adsl.free.fr/tv/tvperso/).
Did the companies start offering these services only after the country was wired or did the broadband penetration increase after companies started offering these services? The answer is not clear from the Business Week article.If it's the latter then it seems that it was the broadband companies' innovation that increased broadband usage, not any particular regulatory activity. That is, the broadband usage would have increased at a similar rate when their monopoly saw its growth drop off and started providing new services. The broadband penetration increase after companies started offering those services in large city and a large competition from the 3 mains provider Wanadoo/Orange, Free, 9 Telecom. Free was the first to introduce VOIP and VOD, two years ago and now it's a defacto standard even for small ISP. Wifi was the big hit of the last year, this years it's home server/media center, HD support and some time MIMO function directly in the box.
Voip Wifi mobil phone and home hot spot ( every customer modem become a hotspot for all the ISP customer) are on test run.
Nicolas Sarkozy didn't spoken out against Free Software, but for Software patent. It's not the same thing.
Free Software movement in France is heavily influenced by the left wing, so it's not a surprise that a left wing president don't look for their support.

Few ceremonial thing:
* name the prime minister
* promulgates laws
* dissolve the Assembly
* large influence on foreign policy
* commander-in-chief of the armed forces
* use of the Nuclear Forces
Optional:
* Have mistress
* Drink Beer
Hum, Chirac totally dislike Sarkozy, he see him as a treat after Sarkozy support to Balladur in 1995. Chirac is a Gaulist, Sarkozy is an atlantist.
If Chirac and Sarkozy are in the same party, it's only because sarkozy make a political hold up on the UMP.
the same Chirac that questioned the wisdom of invading Iraq
Where are the mass destruction weapon ?
The policy of Chirac and Sarkozy is much more similar to that of US-Democrats than the policy of the Republicans.
Sorry but French politic don't fit in your bi-party scheme.
At less they haven't hidden children, so it's really not a big deal. Lot of feminist don't get married, Royal always promot her as a feminist and it's not sure that holland still her partner.
53% of French vote are for Sarkozy, it's a direct voting system. Even if you don't like him he win with popular vote and with on of the larger turnout for a French election.
It's a part of the French political culture. Journalist don't speak about politician private life, if they don't use if for political propose.
Sarkozy is a an exception because he use is wife and his family for his campaign, a mistake that he don't make twice. For example, nobody openly speak about the situation of the couple Ségolène Royal and François Hollande.
The problem isn't whith the politician. In some european country like France, where unlike other treaty, constitutional treaty can be addopted only by referundum.
the Minato's Motor dont't use a different theory from the other DC motos, he only use a lot of junk to justify his theory. Stepper motor aren't DC motor/generator (simple exemple you can't use a stepper motor as a generator ), because it use multiple inductor-stator ring couple but in all case efficiency of stepper motor are very low.
True RMS multimeter isn't the magic solution for mesuring the current draining i know but it's pretty good solution when you haven't to diel whit high frequence.
1) It's a DC motor so the input current must be constant for a good effiency ( rectification coil is for this in a chopper for exemple )
2) You can measure non constant current drain with a RMS ( Root Mid Square ) multimeter.
3) Minato theorie is stupid, because you can't switch on/off at the will a current drainning device without electric arc risk (over intencity in the rotor coil or the rectification coil), and effiency need a constant current input. Alternative current input will do electric and mechanic shock in the motor.
Coil and inductance, are always again current fluctuation this why the best effiency is for constant current for a constant output.
You can gain electric power only from varating magnetic field, like rotating one in a DC motor.
You can use a permanent magnets for inductor in a DA motor, but you can't get power from it in a DC generator, it's the motion who make the varating flux and the electric power.
In mater of ouput power all the power of the inductor is pure loss ( joule effect ).

You don't need so much energy to brow beer and sell French fries. P.S. Désolé la Belgique

Belgium regulary lends Jean Claude van dam to France. It's like Chuck Norris with insane speech.
Chirac is know to beer drinker. What's kind of Beer is another debate ( some rumor and humorist say corona ). http://www.eubusiness.com/news_live/1174842013.19/

Because French ballot counter are faster than voting machine!

It's a fake, anybody knows that Sarko is a shorter than that ;-)

SECAM is the french TV standar, like NTSC for north america. In reality all european tv are PAL and SECAM compatible.
