Ryan Hardy wins Turbo Bodyboards Pipeline Pro contest

Held over three days in waves that can only be described as perfect, the Turbo Bodyboards Pipeline Pro saw the world's best riders all vying for glory, but in clean, near perfect conditions it was Hardy who took the first event of the 2009 International Bodyboarding World Tour; showing all why he is considered as one of the greatest ever.

'I am stoked to win the first ever Grand Slam with the guys standing next to me,' said the elated Hardy.

Opening up the final with an impressive 8.50 (out of a possible 10), Costes had the other finalist's needing a two-wave combination to take the lead, the title and an early season lead.

A long, deep tube ride followed by a gigantic roll netted him a near perfect ride, 9.43 (out of a possible 10); and then within a few minutes Hardy found another tube and this time back-flipped out of the end bowl, leaving the crowd in raptures and the prestigious trophy within his grasp.

WRAPUP 2-Germany, France, Italy suffer dramatic GDP falls

BRUSSELS, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Germany's economy suffered a

record slide in the final quarter of last year and France shrank

at the fastest pace in 34 years, suggesting grim forecasts for

euro zone GDP, due later on Friday, could be too optimistic.

Italy provided no respite -- its economy declined by 1.8

percent on the quarter, significantly worse than forecasts for a

1.2 percent slide and the biggest drop since at least the start

Broader euro zone data are due at 1000 GMT with analysts

saying risks to the forecasts of a 1.3 percent contraction in

the fourth quarter are now skewed firmly to the downside.

Other statistical releases showed Dutch GDP shrank 0.9

percent on the quarter while the Austrian economy sagged by 0.2

percent, the first fall in nearly eight years.

It was a historical fiction, set at Versailles during the early(') 1700's and had a brother and sister, although I do believe that the book was focused on the sister.

It was very frank about womanly cycles and the whole problem of no indoor plumbing in the palace.

I also remember that the cover was either a painting or a photograph of a garden with a fountain('), a lot of dark greens with the fountain(') being the only other color.

The cover looks like .Somewhat of a longshot as there are things that are similar (brother and sister, female servant who was part African) but McIntyre's book focuses heavily on a mermaid that was found in the sea.

Le crunch: dining in France on a budget

opposite is true - most local restaurant owners care so much about the food

that making the place look nice is merely an afterthought.

The French really know how to do "le pique-nique", so tuck into baguettes,

cheese, charcuterie and patés fresh from the producers and fill paper bags

with ripe cherries, sun-blushed apricots and rosy nectarines.

The moment your toes touch the sand and your gaze meets water, you know you're in the Bahamas

France is the latest country in Europe to be brought to its knees by massive public protests over the worsening global economy.

Disparate sections of French society are increasingly united in their disgust at the national government for bailing out large French banks, while the growing perception is that individual wages are stagnant and overall quality of life is declining.

The French protests were primarily peaceful, though youths in Paris were seen throwing bottles with flammable material, which caused several fires in the center of the city.

After the island nation's entire banking sector collapsed in the second half of 2008, the local currency plunged, and interest rates ballooned to 18 percent.

SF Living Abroad Examiner: Buying flowers in France

GerberasIf you're in France this Valentine's Day and want to buy a little something for your sweetheart, you're in luck: in pretty much any French town, the best place to buy flowers is at the marché.

Depending on the size of your town, the "farmer's market" is held at least once a week and usually offers a great selection of flowers at reasonable prices.In Hyères, for example, two bunches of ranuncula go for 5 euros, while a dozen roses can cost anywhere from €5 to 8.

Whether the language was Bambara or Fulfulde (the language of the Fulani and what I learned while in the Peace Corps), the greetings remained consistent: They began with...

One of the problems with living in Costa Rica is that the tourist visa only allows you a three-month stay, after which you are obliged to leave the country for at least 72 hours.

Armel Le Cleac'h arrive 2e du Vendée Globe avec un bateau à bout de ...

Vendée Globe: Armel Le Cleac'h arrive 2e avec un bateau à bout de souffle - MSN Actualités - Actualités Rechercher sur le web : AFP - samedi 7 février 2009, 15h54 Vendée Globe: Armel Le Cleac'h arrive 2e avec un bateau à bout de souffle Le skippeur français Armel Le Cléac'h, le 7 février 2009 au large des Sables-d'Olonne Armel Le Cleac'h (Brit Air), benjamin des 11 rescapés du 6e Vendée Globe, a franchi samedi matin en deuxième position la ligne d'arrivée sous le soleil des Sables-d'Olonne après une fin de course éprouvante qui a mis à mal son bateau."Je ne réalise pas encore ma performance mais je suis très fier d'avoir fait mon tour du monde déjà, d'être arrivé au bout", a déclaré à son arrivée le skipper qui s'était fixé comme objectif de finir cette course durant laquelle les abandons se sont multipliés, ce qui lui a permis d'atteindre peu à peu le devant du classement.Il termine deuxième, cinq jours, six heures et trente minutes (après bonification de 11 heures accordée pour s'être rendu au secours de Jean Le Cam début janvier) après le vainqueur Michel Desjoyeaux, venu le saluer à son arrivée.

"Je ne pouvais pas rêver mieux", a-t-il lancé.Après avoir englouti quelques crêpes fraîches et du pain et du beurre amenés par son équipe une fois la ligne d'arrivée franchie, le skipper, le visage amaigri mais orné d'un grand sourire, a été salué par des centaines de spectateurs, amassés le long du chenal et au ponton, qui scandaient son nom.Il y a été accueilli notamment par Jean Le Cam (VM Matériaux) et Vincent Riou, qui s'était aussi porté au secours de Le Cam avant de casser à l'issue du sauvetage et d'obtenir une 3e place ex-aequo par réparation.Le Cleac'h "fait partie des bons qu'on va certainement retrouver dans quatre ans" au prochain Vendée Globe, a considéré Le Cam.

Guillemot n'est en effet pas attendu avant mardi ou mercredi.Pendant toute la course, Le Cleac'h, surnommé "Le Chacal" pour sa ténacité, est resté près des leaders tout en ménageant au maximum son bateau, notamment dans les mers du Sud qu'il découvrait pour la première fois.Mais il a souffert dans sa remontée du golfe de Gascogne, affrontant sa pire tempête avec des rafales atteignant les 100 km/h dans des creux de sept à huit mètres.La casquette de Brit'Air (pièce qui protège le cockpit des paquets de mer) a été arrachée, et c'est avec une grand voile dont le haut est sorti du rail de mât qu'il a rallié la ligne d'arrivée, à court de vivres."Les derniers jours ont été vraiment difficiles", a assuré le skipper à l'arrivée de cette course autour du monde en monocoque à la voile en solitaire, sans escale et sans assistance.

"Ma mère est un peu inquiète", a-t-il avoué.A 31 ans, le Breton qui n'avait jamais passé plus de 21 jours en mer dans une course de voile, termine avec brio son premier tour du monde après avoir été vainqueur en 2003 de la Solitaire du Figaro et en 2004, de la Transat AG2R avec Nicolas Troussel.Il a déjà annoncé le renouvellement de son contrat d'un an avec Brit Air et sa participation en 2009 à la Solitaire du Figaro et à la Transat Jacques Vabre.

France on fresh storm alert

PARIS, Feb 9 (AFP) Feb 09, 2009

Paris was facing winds of up to 120 kilometres (75 miles) an hour Monday, forecasters said, as France was put on storm alert just two weeks after a tempest left 11 dead in the southwest.The French Atlantic coast was expected to be worst hit, with gales and heavy rain there predicted to reach 140 kilometres an hour, but the entire west and north was in the storm's path, weather forecasters said.

The national weather service put 58 of France's 100 departments on a state of orange alert, one step below the top red alert status.But the forecasters said the storm would not reach the intensity of the one that lashed France on January 14, leaving 11 dead, knocking out power for hundreds of thousands and causing more than a billion euros (1.3 billion dollars) worth of damage.
