Text description provided by the architects. The Mont-de-Marsan professional & technical high school, called « Ecole Professionnelle de Métiers » is welcoming approximately 600 pupils. The building houses 6 teaching departments: -       bakery, patisserie, chocolate and ice cream. -       Beauty parlour : hairdressing, manicure, make-up. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsArchitectural concepts The 6404 sq metres building surrounded by a woodland, a  protected forest (Natura 2000 label) with several hundred years old oak trees and tall pine trees.  The forest on the hill side behind the school is visible from the front of the building which is split into individual blocks looking as if they are an integrated part of the landscape. This breaks up the overall 128 m profile and creates a fairly low line scaled building. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsEntrance to the school is situated beneath the main block. It literally cuts through the hill and is glazed on both sides: from the fields on the front, through the entrance hall, the forest can be seen in the background. This area is full of light and visitors are often surprised about the amount of natural daylight bathing the inside of the building. Floor PlanAll facade walls are metal framed with wood cladding.  Behind the cladding, many openings have been cut at random in the walls giving plenty of natural light inside, while exterior cladding provides comfortable shading. During the day, this creates quality atmosphere and at night, attractive light effects. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsThe concrete structure of beams, pillars and floors gives the whole construction a certain degree of flexibility. This was necessary to ensure each department with its own technical constraints could function properly. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsThe two floor project was extended an extra level. This third floor is also cladded with wood and contains the technical equipment for the various training departments ( boiler room, air handling units, etc.) As technical equipment does not take up the entire area on the third floor of each block, some rooms underneath have benefited from double height ceilings ( for example the staff room, library and admin department). Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsThe East facade is mainly glazed allowing users enjoy the magnificent views of the protected forest at the back. It is also protected by wood cladding. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsThere is a need to preserve areas of outstanding natural beauty, so during construction work particular care and sensitivity were displayed to keep as many trees as possible on the actual site. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsEnvironmental building The architectural choices made resulted in creating an equipment with  low impact on the environment. The re-vegetation of the hill sides was continued onto the roof on the west side. This green roof protects the building from prevailing winds and offers protection against heat in the summer. It also helps inholding rainwater. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsLandscaping of the site has a continuous flowing feel as it incorporates the building into the actual hill side and forest. Flowering meadows were chosen for both the slopes and the roof as they are easy to maintain and fit in well with the local wood. SectionRegional pine wood from the region (Forêt des Landes) was chosen for the cladding. This has the advantage of shortening the whole production- distribution chain and makes perfect sense from a environmental view point. Courtesy of Hessamfar & VéronsThe school is therefore a showcase of local savoir- faire and local timber usage control of the environment and innovative techniques have been the prime ingredients of this project The result is a perfectly scaled building that offers an optimum environmentally friendly solution You'll now receive updates based on what you follow Personalize your stream and start following your favorite authors If you have done all of this and still can't find the email You don't have permission to access the page you requested What is this page?The website you are visiting is protected.For security reasons this page cannot be displayed Leandro Cedaro is returning to Mont de Marsan.

They’re literally born on top of drones and kept there during early stages of feeding they’re brought to a field to intercept drones “These eagles can spot the drones several thousand meters (yards) away and neutralize them,” Jean-Christophe Zimmerman, a French Air Force general, told Reuters The idea is to offer a solution to sneaky smaller drones near military bases (They’re not meant to tangle with militarized Predator-style drones.) The eagles are seen as safer than other solutions like shooting down drones or using nets to capture them Other countries, including The Netherlands, are also using eagles to capture drones Van der Poel delivers another lead-out for Belgian as GC contenders get the day off Jasper Philipsen wins stage 7 of the 2023 Tour de France ahead of Mark Cavendish(Image credit: Getty) Jasper Philipsen of Alpecin-Deceuninck celebrates a third victory at the 2023 Tour de France on stage 7(Image credit: MARCO BERTORELLO AFP via Getty Images) Jasper Philipsen of Alpecin-Deceuninck Egan Bernal and Tom Pidcock of Ineos Grenadiers compete in the peloton(Image credit: David Ramos/Getty Images)Dutch champion Dylan Van Baarle Tiesj Benoot and Jonas Vingegaard ride with other Jumbo-Visma teammates in the peloton(Image credit: Michael Steele/Getty Images)Stage 7 heads to wine country of Bordeaux(Image credit: David Ramos/Getty Images)Tour de France decorations in Mont de Marsan at the start(Image credit: Tim de Waele/Getty Images)A general view of Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) in the Green points jersey Neilson Powless (EF Education-EasyPost) in Polka dot Mountain Jersey and Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) in the Yellow leader jersey taking the start of stage 7(Image credit: Tim de Waele/Getty Images)A view of Jasper Philipsen of Alpecin-Deceuninck in the centre wearing the Green points jersey celebrates at finish line as stage 7 winner ahead of Mark Cavendish of Astana Qazaqstan Team and Biniam Girmay of Intermarché-Circus-Wanty Neilson Powless of EF Education-EasyPost keeps the Polka dot Mountain Jersey(Image credit: Tim de Waele/Getty Images)Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) once again proved himself to be the fastest sprinter at the Tour de France taking out his third victory of the three stages for the fast men so far in the 2023 race Another stellar lead out from Mathieu van der Poel delivered Philipsen to a commanding victory - denying Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan) his 35th Tour stage win by a bike length The Manxman could be consoled by coming far closer to breaking the all-time record than in the previous two stages but he found that he had no match to the acceleration of his Belgian rival Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) also missed out on making history for Eritrea "I think we can be proud of our team achievement Without them it would never be possible to get this third stage win already," Philipsen said "I'm just really proud of how they worked already and how we found each other in the final to do everything that we can to lead to success He acknowledged the challenge from Cavendish who had the speed but perhaps not the timing to take a historic win He's up there and in good condition so it will be hard." technical run-in so riddled with turns and narrow roads that the UCI extended the 3km rule that keeps riders from losing time to crashes or mechanicals to 3.6km Bora-Hansgrohe had control coming into the final kilometre but Van der Poel poked a hole with his unbeatable acceleration Jayco-AlUla were no challenge and Dylan Groenewegen got boxed in finishing fifth as Luca Mozzato (Arkéa-Samsic) snuck through Philipsen gave a nod to his team for getting him through the tricky finale in a perfect position "I think we were a very good group in the last 3k And even Søren [Kragh Andersen] did an amazing pull and we still had Jonas [Rickaert] and Mathieu there I was always on a good wheel and I never had to do a big effort I launched my sprint and that's how we win." After being dubbed 'Jasper disaster' by his team, as revealed in the Netflix series Tour de France: Unchained Philipsen has proved himself to be anything but and now holds a huge 88-point lead in the points classification it's a goal I think to try to take this to Paris but we're only a week in it's still a long and tough Tour we'll just see Riders of the Tour de France donned ice vests and topped off with hydration before stage 7 to Bordeaux the 80th time the city hosted a finish in the event's history negotiations between the CPA riders' union and the UCI commissaires led to an agreement to extend the 3km rule to 3.6km due to two tricky turns in the finale That meant the sprinters could unfurl their lead-outs without the overall Tour de France contenders fighting to hold position through the technical run-in which was expected to be quite fast with a strong tailwind blowing along the river Garonne The heat sapped the impetus from most of the peloton and the usual fight for the breakaway melted into a languid roll-out from Mont-de-Marsan Simon Guglielmi (Arkéa-Samsic) and Mathieu Burgaudeau (TotalEnergies) clipped off the front of the bunch but before long That left poor Gugliemi to cover half of the stage on his own He didn't have to try too hard as the peloton let his lead balloon out to 6:30 in the first 20km The sprinters' teams put their sails up into the tailwind and steadily traveled toward Bordeaux slowly whittling the gap down until they had a reason to burn a match or two The intermediate sprint in Grignols rousted the peloton from its daze Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) led out the sprint but wasn't willing to pour too much energy into it and faded back as Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) took the 17 points for second place ahead of Philipsen the gap to poor Gugliemi was under one minute and Nans Peters (AG2R-Citroën) and Pierre Latour (TotalEnergies) bridged across and edged the gap back out over a minute a massive injection of pace from Ineos Grenadiers before the sole classified climb the Côte de Béguey (1.2km at 4.4%) with 39km to go forced the leaders to accelerate in turn and Gugliemi found his limits and unhitched his car from the Peters/Latour train Gugliemi returned to the peloton as the pace rose from a simmer to a gentle boil with the tailwind propelling the race along The gap stayed steady as the breakaway responded to every acceleration behind until Soudal-QuickStep finally came forward with 22.5km to go and lined the bunch out single file in a cross-tailwind Back into the tailwind along the river Garonne the speed of the chasing bunch began to swing the balance and the gap fell under one minute The peloton was tightly bunched at the front as the lead-out trains assembled so much so that Cavendish narrowly avoided sparking a crash when he bumped Jasper De Buyst (Lotto Dstny) before offering a quick apology Peters and Latour continued to keep the chase at bay but their effort was a flat-out two-man time trial against an unusual cooperation between the various trains A big pull from 'the tractor' Tim Declercq (Soudal-QuickStep) nudged their lead under the 30-second mark before 10km to go A series of roundabouts and traffic islands didn't slow the chase at all as the GC teams Jumbo-Visma and Ineos Grenadiers surged to keep their contenders safe They had the escape duo in sight with 6km to go and Peters decided the fight wasn't worth it and sat up leaving Latour in a futile battle against a concerted chase and he was soon caught Jumbo-Visma could have pulled off after the safety mark of 3.6km to go but kept Vingegaard at the front until the road straightened out Alpecin-Deceuninck and the other sprint trains came out to play on a narrow run-in Results powered by

match last night after he was allegedly eye-gouged and had a ‘severely sore and very red’ eye showing how he punshed and kneed Sebastien Ormaechea View the full video hereThanks to CaptainSneddan (Simon) for the .gif it happened in the unassuming city of Mont de Marsan a place nestled in the deep southwestern region of France primarily known for its bullfighting traditions and the annual Fete de Madeline Aside from its pleasant and picturesque appeal among tourists Mont de Marsan significantly impacted punk history by hosting the very first punk rock festival in Europe had even opened their doors to the punk flood despite the conservative President Giscard d’Estaing imposing a blanket ban on music festivals throughout the country The whole venture was a testament to the audacious efforts of a man named Marc Zermati who orchestrated this entirely groundbreaking movement in the heart of the commune Zermati’s vision and determination defied the restrictions of the time and cemented the location as a place in the pantheon of punk rock and the festival was billed as the first-ever Punk Rock Festival in Europe Eddie and the Hot Rods and Pink Fairies took the headline spots and the crowd featured goers with longer hair and wider flares than you might typically associate with a punk rocker the true punk essence of the weekend was epitomised by The Damned a band that had pioneered various aspects of the movement as a whole the Sex Pistols were allegedly invited but declined to attend reportedly due to Eddie and the Hot Rods headlining and some prior disagreements with Zermati especially considering the cultural circumstances with the festival’s attendees numbering somewhere between 600 and 1400 who had made the journey all the way from Manchester with his wife the lineup of the second festival is likely to be even more gratifying with the return of The Damned being a notable highlight accompanied by other esteemed British musical acts such as The Police While The Police took on more of an opening act role and Eddie and the Hot Rods headlined on that Sunday the diverse gathering of British bands shared the stage with brilliant French outfits like Strychnine The audience was also in for a delightful surprise when Lou Reed graced the arena with his performance on the Monday night The second festival in the bullring drew around 4,000 attendees who gathered under the scorching Landes sun to witness the unmatched musical scenes leading to its ‘relocation’ to La Rochelle The organisers had to wait until the arrival of the new mayor in 1983 to revive the festival in Mont-de-Marsan for three more editions as acts like The Pogues and Nina Hagen took to the stage the festival eventually ceased to exist after its fifth edition a special concert featuring Eddie and the Hot Rods and Bijou was held on Mont-de-Marsan’s Town Hall Square commemorating the 40th anniversary of the inaugural festival the earlier events harboured the impending punk wave preceding the UK and US movements in one of his final ventures before joining Magnum “The punk movement was not really my thing but my interest in all these nascent movements motivated me,” he said And I saw.” Gaumy’s photographs capture many young people sporting their DIY punk attire along with bands who were present in the building: some of his shots feature Sting and Paul Simonon amid the thriving scene Although not as widely recognised as the UK or US punk scenes France’s influence in the punk movement remains subtle yet substantial This scene gradually developed its distinctive identity guided by numerous key figures who propelled the movement it merged with other influential forces on the global stage we uncover the pioneering impact of that inaugural festival in Mont de

Friday for the Indo-French joint exercise Garuda Base Commander Air Base Mont-De-Marsan Colonel Gaudillere received the Indian Air Force contingent on arrival The IAF contingent was given a warm welcome by the French Air Force The Air warriors of IAF are ready for flying operations," IAF said in a tweet The exercise will take place between July 1 and July 14 in France In a video posted on Twitter by the IAF on June 24 Bareilly Air Force Base Commander Air Commodore M Ranade had said "The Indo-French joint exercise Garuda is going to be conducted in France very shortly." "This is the sixth edition of the exercise which is intended for both the air forces to exercise together and learn best practices each one has to offer," he added 2x C-17 and 1x 1L-78 tanker of the Indian Air Force will fly to France to participate in this exercise," he said India and France had recently held naval drills in the Arabian Sea under the Varuna series wargames in which Indian naval fighters along with the Rafale-M of the French Air Force took part The Local Europe ABVästmannagatan 43113 25 StockholmSweden Lawmakers in France are trying once again to ban bullfighting The issue has split the ruling coalition of President Emmanuel Macron and the biggest opposition party which is led by animal-lover Marine Le Pen Journalist-turned-MP Aymeric Caron has proposed a bill to outlaw the centuries-old practice which remains popular in south west France The bill is currently with the Law Commission before going up for a vote in the National Assembly on November 24th - the first time MPs have ever voted on the subject France’s penal code outlaws acts of cruelty towards animals but makes an exception for “uninterrupted local traditions” such as bullfighting To prohibit it is to clash with the aficionados attached to this local custom in cities including Bayonne and the medieval jewel of Mont-de-Marsan in southwest France near Spain and along the Mediterranean coast including Arles Environmentalist MPs tried and failed in 2013 and again 2021 to have bullfighting banned According to an Ifop poll conducted in February for animal welfare organisation 30 millions d'amis 77 percent of French people are in favour of banning bullfighting - up from 50 percent in 2007 The trend is reversed in cities with a bullfighting tradition where 72% of the inhabitants favour maintaining bullfighting according to a poll conducted by Ifop and Sud Radio in June La France Insoumise MP Caron said: ““I think the majority of French people share the view that bullfights are immoral a spectacle that no longer has its place in the 21st century.” critics have sought a final legal blow against what they call a cruel and archaic ritual but none of the draft bills presented have ever been approved for debate by National Assembly lawmakers French courts have also routinely rejected lawsuits lodged by animal rights activists home to one of France’s most famous bullfighting events Caron hopes his bill will attract cross-party support And the idea of a ban does have backing outside his left-wing party including top members of Macron’s party such as the head of his parliamentary group Aurore Berge who was among 36 lawmakers who called for a bullfighting ban last year told Le Parisien: "The cause is more important than political differences "I will gladly vote for the abolition of bullfighting." The move to ban it could fail because a majority of MPs fear a backlash in rural areas and bullfighting heartlands where the practice is a cherished cultural tradition The conflict echoes the widening rift in France between rural dwellers steeped in deep agriculture traditions and Parisians and other urban residents accused of trampling on the country’s cultural heritage what is good or bad in the south," the furious mayor of Mont-de-Marsan Leave us alone with our traditions!" added Dayot who is vice-president of the Union of French Bullfighting Towns The law would also ban cock-fighting which is permitted in some areas in northern France but the first written reference to a bull-running event in France dates from 1289 – as part of law concerning the driving of animals through the streets to the slaughter house in Bayonne bullfighting events take place in Mont-de-Marsan in the Basque Country and along the Mediterranean coast in towns such as Arles It is so popular that regional newspaper Sud Ouest still publishes corrida results from across southern France and northern Spain Spanish-style corridas have taken place in parts of south west France since the 19th century with bullfighting events popular in the Spring and Summer months - with the season beginning in late April and running into September An estimated 1,000 bulls per year are killed in French arenas while according to the pro-bullfight organisation the Observatoire National des Cultures Taurines (ONCT) two million people attend corridas in France every year there are two more types of French 'bullfighting' with each team aiming to complete a set of at least 100 dodges and eight leaps the goal is to snatch a rosette from the head of a young bull Bullfighting was actually added to the list of France's "cultural heritage" in 2011 by then-French culture minister Frédéric Mitterrand banned in most of France but is allowed in the south because it is regarded as a cultural tradition despite complaints from activists that the sport is a form of animal cruelty Please log in here to leave a comment Mont-de-Marsan: The Amir H H Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani arrived in Mont-de-Marsan Air Base today on an official visit to the French Republic the Amir and the accompanying delegation were received by French Defense Minister Florence Parly;
