How to Get to Les Coches Trompe l’oeil 16 & 17 Les Coches Getting to Les Coches The Montchavin – Les Coches web site has information on how to get to Les Coches. www.montchavin-lescoches.com/en/winter-montchavin/more-details/access- montchavin.html By plane: Chambery is the nearest airport to Les Coches with a transfer time of roughly 1hr 30mins. Geneva is roughly 2 hrs 15mins away. Grenoble and Lyon are both roughly 2hrs 30mins. Lyon tends to be the busiest airport, Chambery, and Grenoble the quietest. You have the option of budget and scheduled airlines. There are various companies on the internet offering ski transfers – search for ski transfers from your preferred airport. Alternatively you can arrange car hire from the airport. Make sure that they provide snow chains in the ski season. Do check the snow chains and make sure that you know how to fit them (and that they are the correct size) before you leave the airport. See also driving advice below. If you are travelling by car please ensure that you leave enough time to get to the airport on your return as the road off the mountain gets very busy in high season. On a bad day it can take nearly 2 hours to get to Moûtiers, a journey that normally only takes 30 - 40 minutes! It is also possible to get a local train from Chambery to the Alps – you can connect to Chambery by train from Lyon, Geneva and Grenoble. Visit www.raileurope.co.uk for information. Get the train to Bourg-St-Maurice or Landry and pre-book a taxi. By train: The green alternative is to take the train. Eurostar run a direct service from St. Pancras International or Ashford to Moutiers, Aime la Plagne and Bourg St Maurice for the ski season, taking approximately 8 hours on Friday overnight or Saturday daytime. This sells out very quickly so you need to book early. Visit www.eurostar.com for details. When the direct service is booked then you can use an indirect service, taking the Eurostar to Paris and picking up the TGV down to the Alps. You may need to change station in Paris which can be done via a pre-booked taxi transfer or via the metro. During weekends in the ski season the TGV stops at Landry, the local station. At other times the nearest stations are Bourg St Maurice and Moutiers. For more information visit www.raileurope.co.uk . By car: Self-drive to the alps is the most flexible option, allowing you to travel when you want and the only luggage restriction is the size of your car! You will also have the freedom to use your car while in resort if you fancied a trip down to Bourg St Maurice or Moutiers to do some shopping. There are various ways of crossing the Channel including Eurotunnel www.eurotunnel.com , P&O www.poferries.com or SeaFrance www.seafrance.com . Eurotunnel is more expensive but much quicker at 35 minutes and not subject to weather conditions in the channel. The ferries take 75 – 90 minutes. Les Coches is about 625 miles from Calais and takes 9-10 hours, depending on road conditions; the queues at the auto-route tolls can be very long on holiday weekends. You MRB & LRA Page 1 of 3 printed 18 Nov 2011 Trompe l’oeil 16 & 17 Les Coches can take the auto-route the whole way – the A26 now runs around Reims so you don’t need to go through the centre. Expect to pay about €75 one way in auto-route tolls. It is quickest and easiest to pay by credit card at an automated booth. The last couple of times we travelled the pay booths were mostly unmanned so you either used a credit card or hoped the machine had change! Overnight stops are easy to arrange beforehand using the internet. Formule1 are the cheapest and many are located within easy reach of a motorway exit www.hotelformule1.com . Also try www.accorhotels.com for a range of hotels including F1. Refilling the fuel tank can be quite expensive if you use the motorway filling stations but you can check for stations off the auto-route using the French government web site www.prix-carburants.gouv.fr . This also gives you prices so is a very useful resource. We usually drive so here is the benefit of our experience, such as it is. Carrefour at Calais is not too much of a detour if you want to do some shopping or fill up the car with fuel. Look for signs to Cite Europe. From Calais take the A26 to Reims. From Reims swap to the A4 until you can rejoin the A26 to Troyes. Calais to Troyes is about 3½ to 4 hrs. From Troyes take the A5 towards Dijon, where you can either take the A31 and A6 via Beaune, Macon and Villefranche-sur-Soane or take the A39, A40 and A42 via Dole and Bourg-en-Bresse. The latter is only about 8 miles longer and avoids the A6 in peak holiday travel periods. It also joins up with the A432 to the east of Lyon taking you directly onto the A43 direction Chambery and (I think) Grenoble. If using the A6, after Villefranche and before you reach Lyon take the A46 going east, north of Lyon. Take the new section of autoroute to join the A432 to the east of Lyon, past St Exupery airport to the A43 direction Chambery. This is an easier route than the N346 (direction Marseille) around Lyon and only about 2€ extra. Probably slightly quicker as well. It’s about 8hrs from Calais to the A43 junction south east of Lyon. Continue on the A43 to Chambery – if you need fuel when you get off the autoroute at Chambery then take the turning to La Motte-Servolex and go into the industrial zone (ZI des Landiers) on the other side of the road. There is an Elf service station and a Carrefour with a service station. From Chambery take the A41/A43/A430 to Albertville and from there the N90 to Moutiers. There is a Carrefour in Moûtiers (ZI les Salins) so take the first exit into Moutiers if you want to stock up – also has a service station for fuel. Continue on the N90 towards Bourg-St-Maurice, also signposted to La Plagne and Les Arcs. Don’t take the turn to Aime la Plagne or La Plagne instead continue on this road until you come to a sign to Landry, Montchavin and Les Coches. The road crosses the river and then climbs up the mountain to the resorts. MRB & LRA Page 2 of 3 printed 18 Nov 2011 Trompe l’oeil 16 & 17 Les Coches For advice on driving in France see www.theaa.com/motoring_advice/overseas www.rac.co.uk/driving-abroad/france Key points • Drive on the right (obviously) • You must have your driving licence, registration and insurance documents on you at all times • You must have at least one reflective high visibility jacket or vest in your car and preferably one per person, as well as a warning triangle • You are advised to have a spare bulb kit • You must have snow chains (or snow tyres) when driving in the Alps in winter. You can be refused access to the mountain if you do not have them. Practise putting the chains on before you go. They go on the drive wheels so if hiring a car make sure you know whether the car is front or rear wheel drive. • A shovel, torch and gloves are advisable. • When in resort park facing downhill. Leave the car in gear with the handbrake off and the windscreen wipers out. MRB & LRA Page 3 of 3 printed 18 Nov 2011 .

  • General Court of the European Union PRESS RELEASE No 5/15 Luxembourg, 15 January 2015
    General Court of the European Union PRESS RELEASE No 5/15 Luxembourg, 15 January 2015 Judgment in Case T-1/12 Press and Information France v European Commission The General Court confirms that the aid granted by the SNCF to SeaFrance is incompatible with the internal market SeaFrance, now wound up, was a French public limited company that was indirectly 100% owned by the French public entity the SNCF. It operated maritime passenger and freight transport services between the ports of Calais and Dover. In 2009, SeaFrance owned six vessels and employed 1 550 staff. From 2008, SeaFrance’s financial situation systematically deteriorated owing to unfavourable conditions, internal difficulties and industrial action. The SNCF therefore set up a credit line in favour of SeaFrance. That rescue aid was approved by the Commission on 18 August 2010.1 The French authorities subsequently notified the Commission of a restructuring aid package in favour of SeaFrance along with a restructuring plan. That restructuring was to be financed mainly by State aid in the form of a recapitalisation of SeaFrance in the amount of €223 million. Following a complaint of a competitor of SeaFrance, the French authorities communicated, at the end of 2011, a modified restructuring plan: the recapitalisation of SeaFrance was now to be limited to €166.3 million and to be accompanied by two loans granted by the SNCF. The first loan, of €99.7 million, was intended to finance the restructuring, while the second loan sought to replace a loan pertaining to one of the vessels of the fleet. By decision of 24 October 2011,2 the Commission found that the rescue aid agreed in 2010 and the restructuring measures set out in the 2011 plan (recapitalisation and loans) constituted State aid incompatible with the internal market.

  • A RPL Through RDF: Expressive Navigation in RDF Graphs
    A RPL through RDF: Expressive Navigation in RDF Graphs Harald Zauner1, Benedikt Linse1,2,TimFurche1,3, and François Bry1 1 Institute for Informatics, University of Munich, Oettingenstraße 67, 80538 München, Germany 2 Thomson Reuters, Landsberger Straße 191a, 80687 München, Germany 3 Oxford University Computing Laboratory, Wolfson Building, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3QD, England http://rpl.pms.ifi.lmu.de/ Abstract. RPL (pronounced “ripple”) is the most expressive path lan- guage for navigating in RDF graphs proposed to date that can still be evaluated with polynomial combined complexity. RPL is a lean language well-suited for integration into RDF rule languages. This integration en- ables a limited form of recursion for traversing RDF paths of unknown length at almost no additional cost over conjunctive triple patterns. We demonstrate the power, ease, and efficiency of RPL with two appli- cations on top of the RPL Web interface. The demonstrator implements RPL by transformation to extended nested regular expressions (NREs). For these extended NREs we have implemented an evaluation algorithm with polynomial data complexity. To the best of our knowledge, this demo is the first implementation of NREs (or similarly expressive RDF path languages) with this complexity. 1Motivation With the promise of exciting “new kinds of usage scenarios”, you finally got your boss at company C to embrace linked data and connect your community forum and contact database to other online communities and FOAF profiles of your contacts. Your boss now wants to put that technology to use: “I want to cooperate with X on topic Y ! Can you get me the name of any person that works at X and that’s connected to us via people that are also interested in Y (so that they have an interest in connecting us).
