La defense, the buisnes district. Its part of the grande bvd but not in my opinion actually located in the city. This is right off the metro, a pretty little sculpture garden with neat statues from a south Korean artist.

According to Sophia: Arc slightly off center with the Grand blv. 5 degrees. Why? Because of the metro underneath? To show thats its almost a perfect cube? We may never know. Four people died during its construction. ITs make of "nasa glass" that wont warp. Its pretty impressive.

I think they just like to write on the walls. The problem is that the french system right now is supposed to be "equal" as in they all recieve the same funding (which is almost nothing, because the tuition is basically free) and have no admissions process. Sarko wants them to be able to seek private funds, which would cause a leveling of the universities even more then the little that they are. This worries the humanities types who think all the funding will go to the math and science types.

This my friends is the grand blvd. in Paris. The Champs! At one end you can see place de la concorde with its ferris wheel that marks the start of the tulleries. Its lit for Noel, with beautiful lights that "drip" down the trees.
