Cabin Throws
The French telecommunications giant, France Telecom and the city of Paris, on Friday launched the first pay phone of the future equipped with the traditional handset but accompanied by a 17-inch touch screen with Internet access. The first of 12 new-generation telephones was installed on the Champs Elysees, one of the quintessential tourist sectors of the French capital. The remainder will be installed in the next few days near the Eiffel Tower, the Montparnasse Tower or the major train stations. Over the next six months, Parisians and of course visitors can surf the internet in these booths for free but for a maximum of 10 minutes to obtain practical information related to Paris: how to locate a restaurant, or a rental station bicycles, distributed in different parts of the city. Later, they can also access other internet sites but they have to pay for the service. Not yet established the fees or the way they do. France Telecom, privatized in 1997 but owned 26% by the French state has the obligation to provide a public service. France has 145,000 pay phones. Paris has 5. 299 booths. The "percentage" of people using telephones in France have a cell phone, according to Executive Director of Orange France (France Telecom). But when they run out of battery or no credit "resort to the cabins," he said. . . Marie-Lucie has just passed his fifties, a figure consistent with his age and, perhaps, with a slight penchant for cookies and caramels. She loves shopping, the. mode, balances, and rightly, that day, she indulges in his favorite pastime in the fitting room of a clothing store. The articles move from the shelf to the cabin throws to cabin. radius: colorful outfits, colorful fabrics, glittering sets. The ballet hangers continues unabated as the curtain of the booth opens and closes as the reflection. This is a dress, green, light, summer, Marie-Lucie is now preparing to put on. She hesitates: what size to choose? She opts for the 44, the smallest, and draws the curtain. Before going out, coated with said outfit. Obviously she should have taken over the size, we tremble a little as the seams do not die, that the fabric does not stand up - a glass one. slightly larger would be more flattering to the figure, accusing the least generous outbursts. For a moment, that's what wonders Marie-Lucie, which looks at size 46. Almost thirty years, married, children, a life quite ordinary after all. Except that it is as common, in life we ??always picturesque surprises. A conversation, a blunder, a secret, an encounter, a story . . these are the highlights of the life of every day that I decided to put in writing. . . .
