Stop Over Paris

Hi, My friend and I are joining a winery tour to Chablis and Burgundy the late August.  We are thinking to stop over to Paris for Friday-Sunday before we head up to Chablis.

In the Forum, I found that Normandie and Loire sounds interesting, are they public transportation accessible? Is train convenient?.  IS day trip doable?

Also, we know nothing about lodging, such as B&B, hotel.  Should we find some here close to train station? Any idea?

Yves Saint Laurent

[img_assist|nid=31293|title=|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=190|height=220]The son of an insurance company president, Yves Saint Laurent was born on August 1, 1936 in Oran, in what was then Algeria. He inherited his fashion sense from his mother. He studied first at the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture, but felt frustrated by the syllabus so left after a few months. Saint Laurent left home at the age of 17 to work for the French designer Christian Dior. Following Dior's death in 1957, Yves, at the age of 21, was put in charge of the effort of saving the Dior house from financial ruin.

Anyone ever try a credit repair expert?

I’m looking to pump up my credit score from 640-to 700 to get a better interest rate on my mortgage. I’ve heard opening new credit card accounts can help (some say it could hurt) the score but i doubt that would be enough. I surfed the internet and read about credit repair experts that could help. Has anyone tried these guys? Do they really help and if they do how much can they help. The agency i talked to there name was Lexington, but not sure if they can help as much as they say they can.
Thanks for the advice.

"Le bon dieu sans confession" : death wish ? (8/8)

In its final moments, « Le bon dieu sans confession » unexpectedly meets « Rendez-vous de juillet », as the older generation is led off-screen and forced to make room for the newer one, on which all hopes now rely not to repeat their parents’ mistakes.

In « Rendez-vous de juillet », after the unspeakable trauma of France WW2 collapse, the older generation seemed silently to agree they had lost any moral right to advise their progeny about their life.

In « Le bon dieu sans confession », the lies, the compromises, all the wasted feelings of the adult characters make them similarly unsuitable role models.

Any good price comparison site?

Hi all, we are going to Venice for a trip, one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. To enjoy this trip we are looking for a good site providing hotel price comparison. Do you guys know any good online resource? With the help of which, we can compare hotels according to their prices and rates. Hope you guys will help us.

Thanks!!

"Le bon dieu sans confession" : reverse angle. (6/8)

« Le bon dieu sans confession » is sharp and entertaining social satire, but its final act lifts the film to an unexpected level, which justifies the book alternative title « M. Dupont est mort » and somehow reconciles it with the more famous one.

There, François Dupont, the slightly vane and naive -when it comes to the trades of love and money- new rich character, enamoured with his faithful car and a woman who misleads him at will, reclaims the driver’s seat and his position as the film main character.

Need to compare prices of Paris Hotels!!!!

Hi everyone, I am planning to go to Paris this season with my cousins. Since we are a group of teenagers we would like to make this trip an economical one and would like to know the staying costs that we are going to incur from the hotels there. We would be likely wanting the place to be in a centralized location so that it’s easy to travel in the city without much trouble.

Thanks in advance!!!
