Along the Cotes-d'Armor, there has reportedly been an influx of deadly green algae. This algae is suspected to be the cause of death of a thoroughbred horse and may be related to the death of a beach worker. En ete, l'algues fait une odeur forte a la plage. Beaucoup de gens ferment ses fenetres a la maison. There has been more than a decade of allegations of illnesses, comas, and death surrounding this phenomenon. The huge amounts of algae release great amounts of deadly hydrogen-sulphide into the air. Until this gets straightened up, locals will have to manage as well as they can with the stench.

Current Event 9/25/09

Yesterday, on September 24th, Former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin publicly decided to take legal action against French President Nicholas Sarkozy. Sarkozy made a statement that was broadcast Wednesday night implying that de Villepin was guilty for the charges made against him. De Villepin was charged with slander and forgery after he allegedly took part in them during the 2007 Presidential Election. Of course, President Sarkozy cannot be accused of anything until he is out of office, due to the immunity French presidents have while in office. Until a verdict is reached in de Villepin's case, he will be considered innocent until proven guilty.
