That article mentions about France's exceptionel net population increase. I think that this might be partly due to the higher percentage of immigrants of North African origin (around 6 million). We have no way of knowing since France's republican values strictly bans any race-related statistics. The...

Nice partner swapping (oops) of Il-78s with Mirage 2k and Su-27 with C-135.
L'armee de l'air site has been updated too! Some the above photos in the official link. They engaged in mutual air defense exercises of increasing difficulty + mid-aur refuelling with the bigbirds.

France fails to 'reap benefits' of offshoring However, MGI concluded the French economy gained only 86 cents from every €1 invested by French companies in offshoring centres. This was because French companies invested more heavily in North Africa and eastern Europe, where the cost savings were less...

Thanks shivji. Regarding the organization, it was well actually well-done. There were shuttle buses to/fro Le Bourget to the latest Metro and RER (suburban train) every 10 minutes. But there were much more people than expected - 500K instead of the expected 300K. The French media nicely played lifaf...

Bonjour! My humble contribution: some of it is similar to rsingh's, plus some flying photos (with my amateur camera and an even more amateur photographer). Man, it was tough to take pics of these birds! And I second the opinion of rsingh, public transport was totally blocked, there must have been 10...

Kargil war — Indian Army admits making blunders
Got this from Daily Times by I. Gilani, he claims it is a scoop from the latest Outlook magazine. Can the BR-experts throw some lights on this?
Update: Here is the actual Outlook article. Gives a pretty damning report.
