Salomon August Andrée (18 October 1854, Gränna, Småland – October 1897, Kvitøya, Arctic Norway), during his lifetime most often known as S. A. Andrée, was a Swedish engineer, physicist, aeronaut and polar explorer who died while leading an attempt to reach the Geographic North Pole by hydrogen balloon. The balloon expedition was unsuccessful in reaching the Pole and resulted in the deaths of all three of its participants.
Andrée was born in the small town of Gränna, Sweden; he was very close to his mother, especially after the death of his father in 1870. He attended the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering in 1874. In 1876 he went to the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, where he was employed as a janitor at the Swedish Pavilion. During his trip to the United States he read a book on trade winds and met the American balloonist John Wise; these encounters initiated his lifelong fascination with balloon travel. He returned to Sweden and opened a machine shop where he worked until 1880; it was less than successful and he soon looked for other employment. From 1880 to 1882 he was an assistant at the Royal Institute of Technology, and in 1882–1883 he participated in a Swedish scientific expedition to Spitsbergen led by Nils Ekholm, where Andrée was responsible for the observations regarding air electricity. From 1885 to his death, he was employed by the Swedish patent office. From 1891 to 1894 he was also a liberal member of the Stockholm city council. As a scientist, Andrée published scientific journals about air electricity, conduction of heat, and inventions. His view of life was that of the natural sciences, and he entirely lacked interest in art or literature. He was a believer in industrial and technical development, and claimed also that emancipation of women would come as a consequence of technical progress.

La collégiale Saint-Martin de Champeaux, située à Champeaux (Seine-et-Marne), compte parmi les plus grandes églises gothiques des XIIe siècle et XIIIe siècle siècles sises en Île-de-France. Ses stalles Renaissance et ses remarquables vitraux figurent parmi les réalisations artistiques notables des XVe siècle et XVIe siècle en région parisienne. Champeaux fut aux XIe et XIIe siècles un centre de théologie réputé ainsi que le siège d'une école de chantres dans la mouvance de celle de Notre-Dame. Elle s'enorgueillit d'avoir donné le jour à Guillaume de Champeaux, philosophe et théologien, maître d'Abélard. La collégiale atteste de ce rayonnement culturel campélien qui devait s'émousser avec les siècles, les derniers chanoines quittant définitivement les lieux en 1793. Paradoxalement, la survi...

Why a Coup d'Etat in Madagascar? Because Ravalomanana wants to give the exploitation of oil resources to China instead of France with Total.... Be careful it's not a little contract in a poor country... it's about 15-16 Billion of Oil's Barrels! ! How many $$$ is it? France & Sarkozy believe it is their due... It is NOT! They think it will be more easy to take and steal everything with their "pet dog" rajoelina Do You Know?........ "Madagascar is one of the most exciting untapped energy opportunities in the world, offering both great explorationa potential and significant discovered resources.
