The answer is that Luxembourg has - so far at least - felt no pressure to export. Almost half a million people live here, and happily consume the bulk of production.And yet many wine makers that I spoke to are painfully aware of th

The EU finance ministers called on the European Commission to bring forward a review of the savings tax directive to May if possible, and then come up with reform proposals "in due time.""The commission will prepare a report on the functioning of the savings taxation directive and on the basis of this report the commission will present some legislative proposals if appropriate," EU Tax Commissioner Laszlo Kovacs told reporters.In its present form, the savings tax directive requires EU members to share tax information with one other on interest income kept by account holders from other EU countries.However, it was only agreed after special arrangements were made for Austria, Belgium and Luxembourg, which were eager to protect their banking secrecy practices.

Luxembourg airport is 6km from the city. It is the home base for Luxair, the national flag carrier airline. There are flights from London by British Airways and VLM Airways.The airport is a small regional airport so I was surprised to see 747's at an airport serving a city with a population of just over 75,000 people. These Jumbo's though are cargo airlines. Luxembourg has positioned itself as a cargo hub and it is one of the worlds busiest. During the day you will see 747 cargo planes flying over the city.Luxembourg AirportTrainLuxembourg has its own state railway, CFL. There are direct international services from Brussels, Paris and Trier in Germany.Gare Centrale LuxembourgBusLuxembourg has international services by Eurolines.

The City of Luxembourg is the capital of The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, a pocket sized little country in Western Europe of just 82km long and 57km wide.Luxembourger's are a linguistic lot, having three official languages: French, German and Luxembourgish. English is also taught at schools as well.Luxembourg is famous for its private banking services and many international companies have offices here attracted by its tax haven status. Luxembourg is a seat of several institutions of the European Union, including the European Court of Auditors, the European Court of Justice and the European Investment Bank.There is more to Luxembourg though than business, banking and bureaucrats.Luxembourg's eponymously titled capital sits on either side of a valley that splits the city in two. The river Petrusse flows here, where it joins the river Alzette. Down in the valley is the quarter called Grund.Grund - LuxembourgAbove the valley is the old town, where the Hotel de Ville (Town Hall) can be foun

  

                  

Ana Ivanovic of Serbia won the Fortis Championships on Sunday, beating Daniela Hantuchova of Slovakia 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the final.At this year's French Open, the 19-year-old Ivanovic became the first Serbian woman to reach a Grand Slam final since Monica Seles . At Wimbledon, Ivanovic lost to eventual champion Venus Williams in the semifinals.She matched her previous top U.S. Open performance by reaching the quarterfinals, where she again lost to Williams.

Netherlands vs. Bulgaria, 1430 ESTAmsterdam Arena - AmsterdamA win here for the Dutch puts them in a decent position to advance. Playing at home and having one of the best squads in the world, you've got to think they'll pull it off, but with the Oranje, you never know. They were unimpressive in their recent loss to Switzerland, but it was only a meaningless friendly. Before that they were unbeaten in their previous 11 including three straight wins on the road. Last but not least, they are relatively healthy and boost an attack that could probably score if you gave the opposition 13 players.Bulgaria is not without their stars either as Dimitar Berbatov and Martin Petrov can at times carry a squad, but even against the sometimes lackadaisical Dutch defense, I don't think they'll have enough here. Maybe if Valerie Bujinov wasn't hurt I'd give them a chance, but he is, and they'll lose, 0-2.Belarus vs. Romania, 1200 ESTDinamo - MinskAs long as Romania is healthy, they should at

In the hills of Weiswampach, Luxembourg yesterday, the 12th International Wämper Triathlon became the setting for the national championship Olympic distance (1,5 km swimming, 40 km cycling, 10 km running) triathlon for both Belgium and Luxembourg. The Belgian championship was scheduled to take place in Vilvoorde, Belgium, but because the concentration of Salmonella bacteria in the water was too high, the Belgians moved to Luxembourg.On Saturday, an event for children and for the handicapped took place, along with the 10 kilometre running event. On Sunday, the Juniors and the athletes for the Promotion race started the day, followed at 15:00 by the elite athletes. Even though dark clouds hung over Weiswampach most of the afternoon, there was only a short rain shower during the cycling course.In the men's race, Peter Croes (Belgium, Atriac team) and Dirk Bockel (Luxembourg, Celtic Diekirck team) started together for the final 10 kilometre run, but Bockel managed to outrun Croes by 23 s

Deborah in the Finals The final day of the competition is past. I did not make it to the finals, but my friend Roberto was awarded Third Prize. Congratulations! There was no First Prize unfortunately. The jury seemed not to know exactly what they wanted, since so many experienced conductors were voted out in the previous rounds. I am convinced there were conductors professional and worthy enough for the First Prize! But this is how it went this time... How Ivan felt after the semi-final results... The Orchestra Philharmonique de Luxembourg did a heroic job playing many big works in the finals without rehearsal. There was Firebird, Brahms 1st and 2nd symphonies, Brahms Haydn variations and last but not least Rahmaninov 2nd and 3rd symphonies! I want to congratulate and thank the orchestra and its wonderful players. Hope to see you in the future! The Valley (photo by Ivan) Now all that is left is to pack and leave Luxembourg behind! It is a beauty among cities I must say. I don't kno

So down the M1 we headed with Dundalk and its fabled icedome in our sights, however once we got to dundalk we got a little lost....however this resulted in the true hilarity of seeing the Mongolian Ice Hockey team at a bus stop waiting for a public transport bus back to their hotel! poor fellas.Once we got to the Ice Dome I went to collect the tickets that one of my Canadian buddies (Chris "the boy" Boyko) dad had organised for us free of charge, but seems his contact here forgot to leave them at the desk.

August 15, 2006We said goodbye to Anna, Isaac, and John at the Luxembourg airport. Anna and I held each other for a long time. It could easily be another two years before we see each other again. Although airline madness continues we were able to board with carry on luggage surely because we were travelling from one European Union country to another. After a one hour flight we had a 3.5 hour layover in Amsterdam. We passed it pleasantly in the large airport. During this time I discovered that the man with the scary eyes and wiry hair stamped on KLM cream and sugar is Rembrandt and that Heineken is Holland's Budweiser (remembering some Americans' snobbery around the brand). It was interesting to look up and see the flight boards announcing flights to every major city in the world. If I didn't feel like a world citizen at this point, I never would. I did.We arrived in Dublin in the early evening. Tom and Sara picked us up. Bless their hearts. We had somehow overlooked that

August 11,2006After a pleasant chat over breakfast Sarah and Tom took us the airport again for our journey to Germany. We discovered our bags were 3 pounds overweight but with a wink and a nod we were told we were okay. That's friendly, laid back Ireland.Paul and I slept through this one-hour hop to Amsterdam. It seemed the entire journey would go well. When we landed we had barely one hour to find our gate for Luxembourg. On the outset it seemed like plenty of time but the more we walked through the labyrinth we realized we would be lucky to make it in time. We were following the signs and we were not lost but we made left turns, right turns, went upstairs, then downstairs, then upstairs, then down stairs, right, left. We made it about 5 minutes before the bus left to take us out to the plane (another surprise). As we got off the bus to board in the middle of a field I noticed Fokker 50 written on the wing which certainly reminded me of a very funny American movie called "Me

More recently, as a side effect of theoutstanding economic growth and a policy ofsocial promotion, the mother tongues of some 170,000foreign nationals now living in Luxembourg,enrich the linguistic landscape of the Grand Duchy today.In fact, as no language bears the status of the official language inthe Grand Duchy, French, German and Lëtzebuergesch areomnipresent, at different degrees,and share the roles of language in the work
