Blogger fined over review's Google search placement
Blogger fined over review's Google search placement
A French judge has ruled against a blogger because her scathing restaurant review was too prominent in Google search results. The judge ordered that the post's title be amended and told the blogger Caroline Doudet to pay damages [$2000!].

Yes, sorry, add in 6 weeks annual leave. Although I used to get that in London too, albeit less common. The French also have an additional 11-13 days of public holiday per year, depending on the region you live in.
Ironically, one of the few things that would put me off - having a Skyteam airline as my home carrier - would not trouble our poster either as he claims to be a Delta man

Before anyone gets on me, I'm not asking it sarcastically either. My family is from Italy and I couldn't imagine going to Italy with my career, due to my inability to answer the questions above.

There is a 'value' thing as well. The US spends 18 per cent of GDP on healthcare, the UK spends 9 per cent. We cover everyone in full for that and the average Brit lives 14 months longer than the average American.

IIRC some of the recent French strikes were over reduced pensions and higher retirement ages for certain workers, including in the public transport sector. France could also eventually have problems similar to those in Greece and Spain as they experience increasing difficulties in meeting their retirement payment obligations.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Kids,
lets not go into OMNI/PR territory. We have plenty of threads in that section if you want to debate such things.
