Rubber-tired metro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Rubber-tyred metro technology was first applied to the Paris Metro, developed by Michelin (who provided the tyres and guidance system) in collaboration with Renault (who provided the vehicles). In Paris, while converting metro lines from conventional rail to rubber-tyred technology, these rails were also used to enable mixed traffic with rubber-tyred and steel-wheeled trains using the same track. The advantages of rubber-tyred metro systems include quietness of operation, faster acceleration, shorter braking distances, and the ability to climb or descend steeper slopes than would be feasible with conventional rail tracks. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Rubber-tired_metro   (812 words)

Paris Métro Travelogue An unusual configuration for Paris by itself, this station is more unusual in that the north side track is merely a non-revenue connection from line 9 to line 10, and there is a chain-link fence along the platform edge. The walls were covered with images and text depicting the history of the RATP, Paris' transit agency, although the text was essentially unreadable being too small and much of it too high on the walls. I used the Paris Métro Handbook which is filled with photographs of Métro stations to help decide what stations were must-sees. world.nycsubway.org /eu/fr/paris   (5538 words)

L'Atelier Vert - - Everything French Gardening® Paris is home to the world's biggest trade show, and I went. France has become a country where the disincentives to work--in the form of guaranteed minimum income, housing and food subsidies, and so forth, and the disincentives to hire--in the form of crippling social charges to employers and penalties for firing employees, have combined to paralyse the economy. France is a country that guarantees a minimum income to all its citizens (including the young men burning cars), gives them the best health care in the world, invests proportionately more in public schools in disadvantaged area than in wealthier ones, and where college education is free. www.frenchgardening.com /postcard.tmpl   (2338 words)

Battle of Algiers on Paris Métro Le Pen's xenophobic National Front has spread faster in France than islamic "fanatics." A genuine integration, allowing for cultural and religious freedoms, depends on Europe's capacity to emerge from the current crisis, on the ability of the Western left to raise class solidarity above ethnic prejudices and to provide solutions that require no scapegoats. It is important to stress that whereas during the war of independence the National Liberation Front was among Algerian workers in France like fish in water, neither the Armed Islamic Group nor the Islamic Salvation Front enjoys comparable support. If you add to the 616,000 Algerian nationals the 572,000 Moroccans, and also the Tunislans, Turks and Muslims from black Africa who are now living in France, you will get altogether less than 1.8 million. www.thenation.com /doc/19951106/singer   (2550 words)
