Gay Cruising Parks In Dc

when you hold us ... William

At the beginning of the year, I am more and more addicted to the ball oval. I'm going to propose an article exclusively rugbystiqu, especially on the first game of the year MHR of Montpellier, against the USAP Perpignan, which was held Saturday afternoon at the Yves du Manoir stadium.

And yes, we started in 2011 with what we might call the challenge Languedoc-Roussillon, or rather Languedoc Roussillon vs. In fact, it's regional supremacy was at stake in this Saturday Cloudy. A match against a backdrop of hand because the Blues had gone to Montpellier beat the Catalan Blood and Gold on their land Perpignan last August.

Who would have thought a few years ago, that could claim the Montpellier regional leadership in the field of rugby?
Indeed, the MHR is a very young club. He was born in 1986 from the merger of Stadium Montpellier and Montpellier Université Club (imposed by Georges Freche). And it only 8 seasons as Montpellier evolving in the elite French rugby (after a first passage in the 90s). His record is blank, except for a European Shield victory in 2004, a European Cup second area that has survived three seasons.

However, our region has experienced prestigious clubs, starting with the AS Béziers which celebrates its centenary this year . The team Beziers was 11 times champion of France. Only the Stade Toulousain (14 times) and the Stade French (13 times) are most successful. In the 70s and early 80s, Beziers dominated French rugby. Today the team plays in a federal (third division).

The RC Narbonne also had his moment of glory, much smaller than its neighbor Beziers, but has still won two league titles in France in 1936 and 1979. For the record, the club Narbonne celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2007. The ceremony took place after the last game of the season, lost to Narbonne, which marked the descent of the team in second division after a century in the elite.
Both say that the atmosphere was rather sad to Narbonne on the evening of Centennial (I was there ...).


And if one goes down a little further south-west (is it a coincidence?), It falls on Perpignan. The Sports Union Harlequins Perpignan won 7 times champion of France. The last in 2009 against ASM Clermont-Ferrand, who took his revenge last year. The rugby was born in Perpignan in the late nineteenth century and the first title of the city dates from 1914.

So you see, Montpellier little brother figure is in addition to these iconic rugby teams regionally. But I do not dwell on the past and it is clear that the MHR is the team that goes in the 2010-2011 season, for my greatest pleasure and that of his thousands of supporters .

And thousands, there were 15 stage on Saturday afternoon, a record. It must be said that the time, though cloudy, was particularly sweet for January 8. In addition, Perpignan being only an hour and a half away, supporters of the USAP were out in force. Quite simply, my friends and I were surrounded by blood and gold.

Here is a video game I made for you and I will comment later.



The MHR was anticipated that this match would be difficult, as the forwards were in great demand and especially that the opponents would be sturdy, as evidenced by the displays, concocted opportunity (photo cons). The match ended in a 12-12 left me a bitter taste at the time. Indeed, this is the first time this season that my team does not win on his land. And not for lack of trying.

After being dominated in the opening half (you could see on the video test refused to Perpignan), the Montpellier spent the rest of the match trying to pierce the defense of Perpignan, without success . For its part, the USAP was content to spend his third balloons online Samoan Henry Tuilagi, a force of nature (photo-cons) so he tries to cross the lines of the Blues, with no success either.

As you have seen in recent footage of the video, Montpellier produced the game until the last minute. Our little Blue are really brave, they played until after the victory, at the risk of taking a cons. Finally, it is the strikers who scored all the points on penalties.
I would also like to take my hat off to Perpignan Jerome Porical has quite a kick and we again proved yesterday.


In hindsight, I think both teams could win this match, although one of them has a game much more appealing. So, the draw is not a disaster for us. I would say it is quite encouraging for the rest of the season.
Indeed, getting out with the honors of a match difficult, painstaking as that of Saturday, can only strengthen the team at the psychological level.
I'm sure our little Blue will finish the championship in the first 6 places (synonyms finals of the Heineken Cup and ) for the first time in their history.

As to what is the best team in the region, Montpellier is undoubtedly this year (at least so far). But the USAP is a great team and I'll probably encourage him to Barcelona in early April for his match against Stade Toulousain relocated.

If you want to have another vision, shifted more of this afternoon's rugby, I advise you article the other best blog Montpellier, The aperitif Friday.

Finally in music, here's an excerpt from the concert that my friend and co-blogger, Mister 110 Volts, and I've been seeing on the evening of match. These King Salami & the Cumberland 3 . It was great and I'll tell you all that in my next article.

Gold Rate Mustafa Singapore

Bye!

I've spoken several times of William, a prominent member of the VoiceFest team with whom I shared a great time . Well, William's friend left the gang from the festival.
I'm obviously happy for him, who is going to sail to other streams that attract long ago. But I'm also a little sad because William is an integral part VoiceFest my adventure from the beginning.

I remember it was in February 2009 when I created "A French to VoiceFest " on the idea of my friend Thomas, whom I met William, by email, of course . It was then VoiceFest agent communication and Web communications manager. He gave me a helping hand to visual blog and encouraged me in my approach.

At the time, William took in hand the official blog of VoiceFest and we began exchanging regular through comments on our respective articles. Among bloggers, complicity was born.

course in June 2009 when I landed in Trois-Rivieres for my first VoiceFest, he was there to greet me in the team communication with Fanny-Isa and Joanie (pictured above). In addition to the job, where William helped me to better understand the workings of Quebec culture (not always obvious when we land ...), we also had the opportunity to spend a few evenings together in bars Trois-Rivières.

In 2010, William's friend took the tape. He became a Communications Coordinator. And it was well deserved! Fanny-Isa and Joanie are parties for other projects (I embrace them in passing ...) and Michael have joined the gang, the communication team (supervised by my dear Thomas) was 100% male.
So, during VoiceFest 2010, a male complicity developed between us, and it was really nice!

William helped me to develop my column "A French squatting in VoiceFest " and put me in touch with some of the people I interviewed. But I must admit it is better than me in an interview. The proof of this interview Pirate Heart after his concert at VoiceFest 2010:



VoiceFest During this, I saw William take another professional dimension. First, because the coordination of communication allowed it to take more initiatives.
And then, during the festival, the unintentional delivery (can we really say that?) Of the companion of another William, in charge of logistics and transport, has forced the prime Guillaume (you follow me?) to ensure the second part of the job, which was absent to ensure, for its part, the role of man and dad (and rightly so).

short, while VoiceFest 2010, William really sure.
He even, on several occasions held the role of facilitator and with this talent. Here on the big stage before thousands of spectators



and talent for the stage, William did not fail. He expressed for years in the league Improvisation Mauritius, which is a member over an asset, and in the theater spontaneous Intimate Party. Here

telling a story rather touching to announce the last show of this group of actors, Intimate sings Christmas Party :



I rather regret not having had the opportunity to applaud the actor William. But I think it will since told me he was leaving the team VoiceFest to try his luck on the side of writing and theater, two areas where he is unquestionably talented.

My dear William, I wish you every success in your new career as an artist and I hope we can still zap around a good foam, even when thou shalt be a star.
But I do not doubt for Quebec artists are generally very accessible and, knowing you, there is no reason that you waive the rule.

Finally in music, as usual, here's a band you love very much and we were pleased to see VoiceFest two years ago, Malajube . I suggest a song that you had posted a comment to of my articles on spring, in March 2009:

Vsper Theroy Explain Please

Gimme a Break!

I decided to start the year an article by "catch-all" as I sometimes write when I get back from vacation and I did lots of things nice. And that was the case last week.

After a great Christmas with my family, I braved the elements to see my friends Auvergne in Clermont-Ferrand (you know, the city whose rugby team is champion of France ).
In fact, Santa Claus brought me a new toy that will allow me to offer you even more beautiful pictures in my future articles. This is the Canon Powershot SX 210, a marvel of camera with a zoom of death and HD video function very handy. Thank you Santa!

short, it had snowed on the Auvergne my friends and I took a walk to the ski resort of Super Besse (pictured above). Not to ski, always loathe the winter, the cold and snow. However, I quite like cooking mountain. And for a taste truffles, typical dish of the region that we visited in the Sancy. If you do not know this excellent dish, I refer you to my article " Truffade or poutine.

one we tasted was impressive last week (pictured above) and very good, although to my taste, and that of my master of cooking, Max's friend, the presence of bacon masked the aroma of fresh toma. After this episode

Auvergne, I came back briefly in my good city of Montpellier to encourage our rugby team who faced Biarritz the last game of the Top 14 this year. It was a tough match, dominated by our little blue in the first half and by the Basque second.

Ultimately, Montpellier won and that's the point. This match marked the return of our half-d'ouverture International, Francois Trinh-Duc, after a forced break due to injury. He celebrated it by scoring the only try of Montpellier a superb cons.

Here is a summary of the meeting I put together for you (with bonus comments from Vince):



I finally finished the week on the Coast 'Azur and more precisely on the Giens peninsula, south of Hyères. It's a very nice area to finish the year and begin another. again, I thank my host and friends with whom I spent a very nice stay. After a fairly
Eve disco, the first year was spent visiting this beautiful little corner of the Var coastline.

A walk on the beach we found that the traditional bathing of 1 January was still practiced. It must be said that if the sun shone only moderately, temperature was still very enjoyable.

Then it's into a U.S. military jeep, late 50s, that our host has wandered into the peninsula. A means of locomotion very original and really nice. Too bad the sun was not really go to discover the coves, pine forests and small ports which follow around Giens.
I will
with pleasure, and I'll open up the island of Porquerolles, which is only a short distance from the coast.

Well, one week began in the snows of Auvergne and ended on the beaches of the Cote d'Azur, that's the holidays, especially when you have the chance to share all the good times with dear friends.

To conclude this article Tote earlier this year, we need a little music. As I return to work today, I offer a song of circumstance:
