May Day... in Paris

Workers of the world, awaken !
Rise in all your splendid might
Take the wealth that you are making,
It belongs to you by right.
No one will for bread be crying
We'll have freedom, love and health,
When the grand red flag is flying
In the Workers' Commonwealth.

Discovered on TV news, today...

... I was very busy this morning - the tube draining was blocked, so I was
going to and fro with a plunger and caustic soda when, passing by the TV
in my way from the kitchen to the bathroom, I suddenly froze in front of it.

I wasn't ready to see this before my morning coffee :


The Berlusco and his fave minister in an Αρκαδία-style landscape !
(by Filippo Panseca, Art & Savonnerie exhibition - Priamar/Savona, Italy).

Be sure a little later the water was running free in the bath tube.

The Greater Paris of the Future.

Ten projects to be seen at Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine
- Palais de Chaillot, opening tomorrow April 30th.

Below, Jean Nouvel and Roland Castro proposals...




The idea of a Paris extending beyond the boulevard Périphérique isn't new,
but serious studies about a master plan began when :

"On 17 September 2007, French President Nicolas Sarkozy marked
the inauguration of La Cité de l’architecture & du patrimoine by stating
his wish for an international consultation on a new comprehensive
development project for Greater Paris".
