Bouygues Telecom discreetly increases rates B & You – Le Figaro

After announcing changes in its offerings sensation on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary, the operator increases the prices of three of its low cost packages.

Bouygues Telecom has decided to review its range of packages, and at the same time, its rates. There are not only good surprises for its customers. Package B & amp; You with 40 GB of data is simply increased by 10 euro and goes to 79.99 euros per month for new customers. “We commit ourselves in the market,” slice Torltoting Benedict, director of the consumer market, Bouygues Telecom, which compares to Orange and SFR, but not Free.

Two other packages B & amp; You see their prices rise. The entry fee goes to 4.99 euros (one euro more per month) for two hours to appeal. It entitles more than 20 MB of data. The operator replaces his contract to 10 GB of data by another 30 GB, but at a cost to subscribers: 5 euros per month, rising to 44.99 euros. “We adapt to our customer consumption patterns that use more 4G” adds Benoît Torltoling. For the operator, it is cause for satisfaction: 4G seduces and begins to monetize. Not sure that consumers have the same analysis. However, only new customers are affected by these new rates.

Last week, on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary, Bouygues Telecom had booked several good news to its customers. The package for 39.99 euros to 34.99 euros going to 5GB and he to 39.99 euros now includes 20 GB of datas.

Both fronts opened by France against Google – Les Echos

Tulipe. This is the code name chosen by the national financial prosecutor Eliane Houlette to designate Google unwittingly in the investigation for tax evasion and money laundering tax evasion opened June 16, 2015 and remained secret until the wide search last week . “ We have to ensure complete confidentiality, decided never to say the word Google, and we worked out this folder only network for almost a year ,” she said this week- end in the show “Grand appointment” Europe 1-iTV-Le Monde.

The “tulip” (one of the companies, “ may be the parent company ” is registered in the Netherlands) was picked last Tuesday by the search which involved a total of 96 people: 25 computer experts, 6 representatives of the prosecution and all investigators of the central fight against corruption and financial and tax offenses (OCLCIFF).

Second stage rocket

This criminal procedure, according to our information, covering the period 2011-2015 is the second stage of the rocket launched by France against the American. It is completely separate, but follows the purely fiscal procedure that led to a house search of the premises of the company in Paris by the tax authorities in 2011 and a reorganization proposal involving a sum of around 1.6 billion euros (including interest and late fees).

This other matter on which both parties should logically come into litigation phase door according to our sources over the period 2005-2011. It is whether Google Ireland Ltd then had a permanent establishment in France and if it failed to report some of the activities she realized it. There may be marginal adjustments, but we are not in this logic “.

Several terabytes of records

so there are many open two fronts against Google: tax proceedings and criminal proceedings then, that if it relates to the same facts, not about the same period of analysis. “In the tax procedure, the tax authorities found that the practices of the company to avoid tax recurred every year , decrypts an expert dossier. So he asked if they still persisted. This is to get to the bottom he referred the matter to the national financial Parquet “, showing that Bercy also knows when he wants to, coordinate with justice in the hunt for fraud.

In criminal cases, Google faces up to 10 million euro fine for tax evasion aspect of this issue. As for the possible tax fraud laundering offense, it is punishable by 10 years in prison and 750,000 euro fine or half of the money laundered. The criminal penalty would however not exclusive, if the offense was proved, another turnaround.

The work of the judiciary as part of this preliminary investigation will be long and difficult. “We raised a lot of computer data, I think there are several terabytes of documents” , said Eliane Houlette, who believes that several months or several years will be needed to exploit them. “We are limited by material means. We would highly efficient software that exist, but we do not have “. Tools that, precisely, are the strength of Google

After the search at Google, data to analyze terabytes – Next INpact

Yesterday, Eliane Houlette, national financial prosecutor, gave more details on the search magnitude organized in local Google France.

Last week, hundreds of tax officials and law enforcement brigade of the great financial crime (BRGDF), including 25 computer experts, searched the premises of Google France. In a statement released the same day, the financial national Parquet dropped big words, evoking a possible aggravated tax fraud and a tape laundering organized tax fraud.

Google, among Dutch tulip and Irish shamrock

the aim of this procedure is simple on paper: is the fruit of the activity of the motor in our country is traceable to our jurisdiction, or can he continue to rise in arm of Google Ireland? To find out, it is first to determine if Google has in our country of a “permanent establishment”. The company has always defended the opposite view: it does realize that in our country marketing operations. This line of defense allows it to enjoy the Irish tunnel, according to tax treaty signed between Paris and Dublin in 1968.

As explained, the goal of this search is to bring as many elements to consecrate this relocation and especially measuring the amplitude of the benefits concerned. Yesterday, on the antenna of the Grand Rendez-Vous Europe 1- The World- iTV, Eliane Houlette, which directs the financial parquet, given other elements to “ tulip ” code name this survey.

a survey offline protection

Having received a complaint from the tax authorities in June 2015, it evokes a fight “ David and Goliath “, the company is the largest capitalization in the world.

” We treated this complaint in total privacy due to the activity of this company. And so, to ensure the complete confidentiality within the prosecution, we decided never to utter the name “Google” but give it another name, Tulip . ” A flowery reference to Holland, where one of the parent companies was registered. “ We worked this folder only outside networks offline for almost a year, with a computer only in word processing mode, so to speak” .

This caution n is not so much directed against the American giant that foreign intelligence services, including American. All countries have weapons technology to spy on hot topics that could threaten one of the jewels of their industry. France has not escaped this rule, formalizing these indiscretions through the law on surveillance of international communications.

Google France, a company that used to “screen”

the head of PNF well summarized the issue: the members of the Google galaxy “ hardly pay by tax because, through an establishment, Google France, which employs 700 people, they conclude advertising contracts with economic players and this company serves as a screen. Google claims that it is the Irish company, first parent who works and has no permanent establishment “in France.

Google does not expect a trial in the coming days, with services distributed with trucks of information. During the search, “ we raised a lot of computer data, I think there are several terabytes of documents, at least as far as Panama Papers, maybe even more. It will take several months, I hope it will not be many years for use . ” Problem: “ We are very limited in terms of technological material means. We would highly efficient software which we do not have. These are software that cost about 200 000 . ”

This is not beneficial to anyone, even Google will have to drag a disastrous image over the entire period. About the Eliane Houlette reveal in any case a curious side of the French Touch : this Bercy unable to get paid tools sold a few hundred thousand, so what discussed possible recovery of 1.6 billion euros.

The extreme caution of French investigators face Google – Le Figaro

For a year, members of the financial national parquet worked on the tax fraud case without an Internet connection, using only a word processor.

the french services took extreme precautions to maintain strict confidentiality about the tax evasion investigation against Google in France. For nearly a year, investigators “worked out this folder only network offline (…), with a computer, but only in word processor,” said on Sunday the director of national financial parquet (PNF) Eliane Houlette, during the Great Rendezvous Europe 1 / I-Tele / Le Monde. In order not to arouse suspicion, the set was “never to utter the name Google” and use the code name “Tulip”, associated with the operation.

Faced with Google, the France is engaged in a battle on all fronts. Legal, first. The investigation, opened June 16, 2015 following a complaint from the French tax authorities, but remained secret until Tuesday, covers the period 2007 to 2011. It aims to verify whether the company Google Ireland Ltd had while a permanent establishment in France “and if, by not declaring a part of his activity carried out on french territory, it has violated its tax obligations.” “Several terabytes of data” were recovered by investigators during the searches conducted at the headquarters of Google France in Paris on Tuesday.

The standoff is also media. Google enjoys in France as elsewhere, an excellent reputation, thanks to its affordable and efficient products, known to many. Invariably, the company states “respect French law and cooperate fully with the authorities to answer their questions.” Search and repeated accusations of tax evasion souçons may end up giving the image of a fiercely against the US group.

Created in the aftermath of the Cahuzac affair, does not have the same sympathy capital, or in the same punching power. It’s “a little David against Goliath”, claimed Sunday its director, to present his case. The exploitation of the data entered, which could take “several months” or even “many years” could go “much faster” if investigators had at their disposal the most “successful”, Eliane Houlette regretted. The volume to be analyzed is “at least as important as Panama Papers perhaps even more,” she added. A comparison, unflattering, to mark the spirits.

The third fight is political. In an interview Sunday with Reuters and three European newspapers, the finance minister, Michel Sapin, warned that France would go “to the end” in this case Google, one of the most successful American entrepreneurial Web. “There will be no negotiations, we apply the law,” he said, ruling out any idea of ​​agreement, such as happened with the British tax authorities, covering about 172 million euros. The amount of this adjustment had controversy in Britain. In France, the tax authorities would demand 1.6 billion to Google.

VIDEOS. NASA has managed to inflate the Beam Module – The Huffington Post

PITCH This time, it’s good. The second attempt of NASA deploy an experimental inflatable module, which docked with the International Space Station (ISS), seemed to be going smoothly Saturday 28 May, after a failed first attempt Thursday.

after three quarters of an hour and after blowing air twice, the module known as “Bigelow Expandable Activity Module” or Beam seemed to unfold as planned, according to the comments of the Nasa and the images broadcast live from the international Space station.

“Everything is going smoothly,” said a spokesman for NASA.

Thursday , teams of NASA decided to prematurely end the first attempt to deploy after meeting a stronger than expected resistance. Rather than forcing things, engineers at the space agency preferred to postpone the operation.

Beam is part of NASA experiments to test inflatable habitats, which are lighter and less bulky and could one day be used on Mars or the Moon. Bigelow Aerospace of his side that built the module under a contract of $ 17.8 million with NASA, said in a statement Thursday that “the Beam had been folded for much longer than initially expected,” either fifteen months instead of five months.

a space of 16 cubic meters

This may have affected the flexibility of the material Kevlar, an extremely Resisters thermoplastic, which forms the casing module explains the firm. Beam, a mass of 1.4 tons, measuring four meters long and 3.23 meters in diameter when fully inflated with breathable air. Its volume is thus multiplied by 4.5 which provides a space of 16 cubic meters, the equivalent of a small room.

The test of this unit docked to the ISS will allow scientists and engineers to evaluate its performance and especially whether it can provide protection against solar and cosmic radiation and micrometeorites against space debris and other more extreme temperatures.

the astronauts currently in Space Station should normally enter the unit once deployed and come back several times a year during the period of two years provided for this experiment. They will report the data and measurements collected by sensors located inside the BEAM and also regularly evaluate the module status

“First inflatable human passenger who ever deployed in space”

Beam is part of NASA experiments to test inflatable habitats, which are lighter and less bulky, that could one day be used on Mars or the moon.

When the module has been fully inflated, astronaut Jeff Williams, who carried out this delicate operation, opened eight air tanks at inside the module, pressurizing it to a level close to the space station.

“the module is fully inflated now fully pressurized,” said the spokesman NASA Daniel Huot.

“a full day of success with the swelling of the first inflatable human passenger who ever deployed in space”, has he rejoiced.

first entry planned in a week

the astronauts will now conduct tests to check if the module has no air leaks and engage in other preparatory tasks before entering for the first time in about a week.

Since 1300 GMT, Jeff Williams opened the valve to inflate 18 times the module, for a total of 59 seconds, according to comments from NASA and broadcast live images of the international Space Station .

the maneuver has always followed the same sequence: opening the valve of a period determined by scientists on the ground, watching the progress of the deployment, stabilization of the pressure in the module and start again <. / p>

the slow proceedings have worn the nerves of many science journalists, who enjoy themselves on social networks. “Thank you for your solidarity space Twitter which is much needed in these difficult times,” joked and Miriam Kramer, journalist in charge of space at Mashable.

failed first attempt Thursday

Thursday, teams of NASA decided to prematurely end the first attempt to deploy after meeting a stronger than expected resistance. Rather than forcing things, engineers at the space agency preferred to postpone the operation.

On his side Bigelow Aerospace that built the module under a $ 17.8 million contract with NASA, said in a statement Thursday that “the Beam had been folded for much longer than initially expected”, fifteen months instead of five months.

This may have affected the flexibility of the material – Kevlar, an extremely resistant thermoplastic – which forms the shell of the module explains the firm

Beam, a mass of 1.4 tons, measuring four meters long. 3.23 meters in diameter when fully inflated with breathable air. Its volume is thus multiplied by 4.5 which provides a space of 16 cubic meters, the equivalent of a small room.

The test of this unit docked to the ISS will allow scientists and engineers to evaluate its performance and especially whether it can provide protection against solar and cosmic radiation and micrometeorites against space debris and other more extreme temperatures.

the astronauts currently in Space Station should return several times a year in the module during the two years provided for this experiment. They will report the data and measurements collected by sensors located inside the Beam and also regularly evaluate the state of the module.

The schooner Tara scientific cast off Saturday from the port of Lorient, followed by an armada of small boats, under a slightly overcast sky, for unprecedented two-year expedition in the Pacific ocean dedicated to the study of coral reefs and their evolution.

Several hundred people attended the apparatus shortly before 7:00 p.m. of aluminum sailboat, in a festive atmosphere with Polynesian dances and music, a brass band, concerts and events around the corals organized by the Oceanopolis Brest.

This is the first multidisciplinary study taking into account the coral -which has about 1,400 species différentes- in the community and interaction with the high seas. “This expedition will be a premiere at the study of corals in its scope in terms of space,” noted before departure Serge Planes, scientific expedition leader and director of research at CNRS.

The ship is 36 meters long, 10 wide and 27 mast height, must join initially Groix to be blessed, and his crew, by the Rector parish Breton island, as is the tradition every shipment starting from the time of the French East India Company which was based in Lorient.

from East to West and North to South, the schooner then travel the Pacific ocean to discover the diversity of coral and better understand particular its ability to adapt to climate change and human activities.

While coral reefs cover less than 0.2% of the ocean surface, they meet nearly 30% of marine biodiversity known to date.

“One kilometer square of coral reefs, it is the equivalent of all biodiversity found on the coasts of the French metropolis, “noted Serge Planes, explaining that the health of these reefs is crucial to species diversity that they house, but also for humanity.

‘highly threatened ecosystem

Studying such ecosystem Pacific-wide and represents a major opportunity for the international scientific community, so that much of the coral reefs -véritables indicators of the health of océans- tends to disappear in recent years.

“it’s a threatened ecosystem,” mainly due to the fact that it is an ecosystem coastal, said Serge Planes, adding that over 20% of coral reefs are already permanently deleted due in port facilities.

From the Panama Canal to the islands of Japan, and New Zealand to China, Tara will travel nearly 100,000 km through September 2018 and his return to Lorient, her home port tie.

on board the schooner, peppered with measuring instruments, six sailors and an interdisciplinary team of scientists on a “cross” approach. They will be in the final 70 scientists take turns at sea for two years. Then follow ten years of operation of the collected information.

“The boat is fully available to scientists”, welcomed Etienne Bourgois, President of Tara Expeditions Foundation, born in March and recognized public utility by the state. “It is trying to advance science with the international scientific community and the guts of each,” said he said.

The program for these two years of shipment, the leadership of the CNRS. some 70 stops, 40 archipelagos analyzed 45,000 samples and to discover the hidden coral diversity

This will be the 11th expedition led by the schooner, which has already traversed the Arctic to study the ice, sailed the seas of the globe to discover the plankton or crossed the Mediterranean to measure the impact of pollution plastics.
