It's a tting welcome to this little island of extremes, just scary enough to summon a jolt of adrenaline—and possibly a small gasp. That feeling tends to stay with you as you travel the island's winding, narrow roads that hug cliffs with little or no shoulder. Everything about St. Barts is dramatic, from the sleek superyachts bobbing in Gustavia harbor to the expansive (and expensive) white villas with red roofs and open porches perched on the hillsides. The prices for just about everything can be shocking, too, as well as the celebrities who are likely to show up at the next table. (Wait, is that Beyoncé?) But what makes this island so unique is its geography. Its 14 white-sand beaches, most of which have little to no development and very few people, are https://www.coastalliving.com/travel/things-to-do-anguilla 2/11 1/10/2019 Travel Back to St. Barts After Hurricane Irma - Coastal Living tucked into a rugged volcanic landscape. It's tough to grow anything here and tough to get to—a combination that historically made the island unattractive to colonists and developers This may also be why the people of St. Barts are so resilient, not unlike the coconut palms and amboyant trees that thrive in the rocky soil. When the eyewall of Hurricane Irma slammed into the island on September 6 with sustained winds of 200 miles per hour, most of the hotels, rental properties, and restaurants were badly damaged, not to mention hundreds of homes. Miraculously, no one was killed, but there was so much debris in the streets that lifelong residents didn't even recognize their own neighborhoods. In most parts of the island there was no water or electricity for 18 days, but the resourceful islanders were undeterred. "The winds ended about 8:15 in the morning," says David Thyssen, a property manager for WIMCO Villas. "By 8:30 everyone was out trying to get debris off the road." Marina Morel, who runs the Shellona Beach Club on the edge of Gustavia, lost not only the front half of her restaurant but also most of the beach, which had to be rebuilt using imported sand. With no one available to do the renovations, her crew of cooks, bartenders, and waiters did much of it themselves. "Sanding tables, varnishing chairs, putting up walls, doing electrical work—we did everything," Morel says. WATCH: The Best Warm-Weather Vacations You Can Take This Year Now Shellona is back to being one of the hottest lunch spots on St. Barts, serving up an inventive Greek menu while a DJ plays techno music under a canopy of white umbrellas. As dozens of restaurants have reopened, St. Barts has quickly reclaimed its status as one of the best dining destinations in the Caribbean. Eating is sport here; hot spots like Bonito, L'Esprit, and Orega up the ante with adventurous, modern takes on French Caribbean cuisine. https://www.coastalliving.com/travel/things-to-do-anguilla 3/11 1/10/2019 Travel Back to St. Barts After Hurricane Irma - Coastal Living Meanwhile, local favorites like Le Grain de Sel (near Saline Beach) and Eddy's serve delicious Creole food at reasonable prices. There's also Le Select, the legendary dive bar in Gustavia that Jimmy Buffett called his "oce" for years, where you can order a pair of margaritas for $10. The bar's credo, painted on a sign above the door: "Avoiding progress since 1949." "To really get a feel for the island, you must go to Le Select and have a beer," says David Sierra, the general manager of Hôtel Manapany in the village of Anse de Caye. "This is the real St. Barts." The Manapany was more than halfway through a major renovation when Irma hit, breaking the pool in half and destroying the beachside spa. Sierra spent a terrifying night during the storm with his family. "All the roof from my neighbor came onto my roof," says the French native, "so it was very loud—pow, pow, pow, pow. I will never forget this noise." Sierra has operated ve-star properties all over the world, from Tunisia to St. Tropez, but says he's never seen a stronger, more resourceful community than the people of St. Barts. "It is a small island, so everyone was very motivated to help." The Manapany reopened this spring, after seven months of renovations. Its colorful, modern rooms are nestled into a rocky hillside facing the ocean. You have to drive down a steep, narrow road with a few crazy turns to get there, but it's worth it. Get Here Tradewind Aviation, known for its excellent pilots and comfortable, eight-seater prop planes, connects daily to the Gustav III Airport from Antigua and San Juan, Puerto Rico. Winair and St. Barth Commuter connect daily from St. Martin; Air Antilles connects daily from Guadaloupe and Martinique. Stay Here https://www.coastalliving.com/travel/things-to-do-anguilla 4/11 1/10/2019 Travel Back to St. Barts After Hurricane Irma - Coastal Living Just ve minutes from the airport and near the glitz and bustle of Gustavia, Hôtel Manapany hides away on Anse de Cayes bay with a charming bohemian elegance. Its 43 rooms and suites have ocean views, wide porches, and colorful, sophisticated interiors. Rates start at $508. On a verdant ridge overlooking Flamands Beach, Villa Marie Saint-Barth has 18 bungalows and villas done in impeccably chic West Indian style. Rates start at $499. If you're traveling with family, honeymooning, or just want more space and privacy, the villas on St. Barts are extraordinary. Most have private pools, ocean views, and open-air living spaces with amenities like outdoor showers and satellite TV (if you must). More than 80 percent of the island's approximately 800 villas have reopened; the remaining 20 percent is projected to open by December. WIMCO Villas provides personalized concierge services for its portfolio of 360 villas (including preferential restaurant reservations and beach service). The island's famed resorts, among the most severely damaged properties, return in force for high season (the two weeks of Christmas and New Year's) and beyond. Hotel Le Toiny has added villas to its mix, and reopens in October. Le Sereno and Le Barthélemy plan to reopen in November. While Eden Rock-St. Barth rental villas are already welcoming guests, the resort property will reopen on December 22, the same day as Cheval Blanc St. Barth Isle de France. Le Guanahani will reopen in 2019. https://www.coastalliving.com/travel/things-to-do-anguilla 5/11 1/10/2019 Travel Back to St. Barts After Hurricane Irma - Coastal Living Sign up for our Newsletter Subscribe for charming coastal cottages, dreamy beach getaways, and more!

But on May 30—Anguilla Day—locals still take to the ocean for their annual around-the-island sailing race that celebrates their homeland’s independence from St. Kitts in 1967. In rustic, shallow-draft schooners with oversize sails (the traditional, hand-built watercraft Anguillans have used for centuries in trade and sometimes smuggling), crews of as many as 25 work in the tightest quarters to keep their boats upright and tacking. All around them bobs a wild barge-and-boat party of locals who’ve come out to watch the action and cheer on their friends. On shore, hundreds more islanders cluster in spots to picnic and watch, many spending the whole day mirroring the route from land. RELATED: Our Favorite Caribbean Destinations It’s a really rough day on the water this year, and one boat—a favorite to win— capsizes. But after the crew swims quickly to safety, the post-race party at the https://www.coastalliving.com/travel/things-to-do-anguilla 7/11 1/10/2019 Travel Back to St. Barts After Hurricane Irma - Coastal Living funky outpost of Sandy Ground feels like the best night ever. That’s because this is the rst Anguilla Day since the northern eye wall of Hurricane Irma passed over the low-lying, 35-square-mile island, destroying most of its homes and schools, uprooting trees and power poles, making 90 percent of its roads impassable, leaving damages exceeding $190 million, and killing one resident.

Selon la nomenclature d’activités françaises, le transport aérien regroupe les activités régulières (code NAF 62.1Z) et le transport aérien non régulier (code NAF 62.2Z). Le transport aérien régulier regroupe le transport de personnes, de marchandises et de courrier sur des lignes régulières et selon des horaires déterminés. L’ensemble des vols charters, même réguliers, est exclu de cette classe. Le transport aérien non régulier regroupe les transports aériens de personnes et de marchandises réalisés par les charters, les avions-taxis, les locations d’avions avec pilote, ou encore les excursions aériennes. Les autres activités aériennes telles que les baptêmes de l’air, le parachutisme, les promenades en montgolfière, etc. ne sont pas assimilées à du transport aérien mais à des services récréatifs et services liés au sport. Le transport aérien, un outil indispensable de nos sociétés d’échanges Le trafic aérien mondial est en constante augmentation depuis 10 ans, indépendamment des événements géopolitiques récents. En 2001, l’activité « transport de passagers » est estimée à 364 milliards de dollars, en augmentation de 77% par rapport à 1991. La croissance du transport aérien de fret est de 9% par an, soit en moyenne 3 points de plus que celle du trafic passagers. La demande de transport aérien est principalement induite par la croissance économique, qui s’appuie dans un contexte mondialisé sur un besoin important d’échange et de mobilité des biens et des personnes.

Tax provisions resulting from the French Annual Finance Act Bill for 2018 This bill released on 27 September 2017 is currently being discussed at the Parliament. The below provisions should not be considered as definitive before the act is voted late December. I.1. Cash Desk Software certification The French Annual Finance Act for 2016 introduced new obligations regarding the certification of accounting, management and cash desk software. The related provisions originally introduced in the French legislation under article 286 I 3° bis of the French Tax Code were supposed to come into force on January 1 st, 2018. These original provisions were enacted with the widest scope as for the taxable persons concerned and the software to be certified. The original plan was to make it mandatory for every taxable person realising operations in France and registering payments from their customers with accounting/management/cash desk software, to use certified software satisfying specific terms regarding notably registration, security and data storage. Originally, this obligation was supposed to apply to every taxable person VAT-registered in France and to any piece of software that would operate calculation and registration of the payments such as: • Accounting software : those can be defined as software allowing registration of the payments in different modules (suppliers, customers, wages, ledger, …) • Management software : those are referred by the French Administration to the automated commercial management of orders, invoices, cost estimate or delivery notes and to the management of the stock (sales and purchases), turnover, … o Any piece of software combining the management with the accounting registrations, allowing to monitor the global activity (sales and payments) was then supposed to be part of the certification obligation.

    Civil Aviation Safety Directorate NATIONAL OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY 20 13 REPORT ACTIVITY Ministère de l'Écologie, du Développement durable et de l’Énergie www.developpement-durable.gouv.fr DSAC - ACTIVITY REPORT 2013 The year 2013 was marked by the adoption of the 2013-2015 social protocol of the DGAC that offi cially acknowledged the three-year changes of the DSAC: changes in the safety and security surveillance CONTENTS business lines in an increasingly European context of increasing requirements, consolidation of its other missions and territorial reorganisation in order to play our part in the future in spite of severe budget constraints. Thus, for eleven territorial delegations in metropolitan France, the services will gradually be grouped at the head-offi ces of the interregional divisions. This reorganisation will go hand in hand with signifi cant efforts towards training monitoring of careers of the agents. 2013 was also the year when the «Aircrew» European Regulation entered into force resulting in strong mobilisation of the DSAC with regard to fl ight crews: pilot training schools, licenses and medical fi tness. Thus, to ensure compliance with Aircrew, DSAC had to redefi ne its methods, adapt its IT tools, make changes in applications, which have been successfully done. Very important work, in collaboration with ENAC, was also carried out along with the French Aeronautical Federation to develop «standard» organisation and training manuals for fl ying clubs. In the medical fi eld, DSAC has completely revised its surveillance and organisation procedures.
