None of this is true. They lie about everything. Whatever they put out, assume it's a lie. Don't take it seriously or you will be duped.
3 of 3)...These jewel thieves matched a plan of the Louvre interior rooms to their exterior positions. The entrenched tradition of displaying the jewels in the Petite Galerie blinded the security experts to the Galerie's exposure.
2 of 3)...looking south over the river was the reason the passageway, now a sculpture-encrusted 2-story building with a baroque, gilded, upstairs gallery where the crown jewels have been on display for years, was built.
1 of 3)...The little balcony the thieves used has a history. The building was made for Catherine de Medicis in 1566 as a covered walk for the queen to access a view of the Seine and the countryside from the old Louvre. Many changes to the architecture since then but the balcony...

(6 of 6) As the author of *Second Son, the Man in the Iron Mask*, in which I offer a startling disagreement with the accepted legitimacy of Louis XIV backed by medical and genetic science, I would love to study the heart remnants to test my theory.
(5 of 6) Brookfield, Vermont: Gower, 1991, "In 1846 was installed in the crypt of Saint-Denis an armoire des coeurs fitted with boxes containing the hearts (or parts of them) of Marie de Médicis, Henry IV, Louis XIII, Louis XIV, and Louis XVIII – and one whose precise identity was unknown.”
(4 of 6) The royal remains have not been accessed since a few years after that date. According to Elizabeth A.R. Brown, *The Monarchy of Capetian France and Royal Ceremonial,"
(3 of 6) Saint-Denis. Remains of the heart of Louis XIV, stored in a separate place, were sold to a painter to make a brown color called mummia. On March 3, 1819, the artist returned to what was left of the heart and it went back to Saint-Denis.
(2 of 6) Between 6 August and 25 October 1793 occurred the systematic removal of the tombs and their contents of the French royal families from the abbey church of Saint-Denis near Paris. The remains were dumped into ditches. On January 18, 1817, the remains were taken back to
(1 of 6) Medical details on Louis XIV's remains were published October 10. "Paleoproteomics reveals chromoblastomycosis as possible cause of King of France Louis XIV’s death (1715)," Philippe Charlier et al. Access to Louis XIV's remains is an astounding accomplishment by the authors.
He remembers the images he saw in 2020 and these replay in his head. His own mind presents these images as happening now. There may be plenty of other contorted memories that are now real for him.

(2 of 3) "Here are the substances used for making obturators up to 1823 that are in old medical texts. The device Dauger wore must have been made of one of them or a combination:
Hollerius, 1552: Wax; sponge
Alexander Petronius, 1566 : Wax; gold; cotton

(1 of 3) I explain in *Second Son" the palatal obturator that the Man in the Iron Mask (Eustache Dauger) might have worn on the trip from Exilles to Cannes in 1687. It was reported by Voltaire to have been an "iron mask" but this is grossly untrue. 17th century craniofacial medicine
The Citadines apartment hotels are wonderful. Fix your own free breakfast at home, heat up coffee, finish off that strawberry pastry you saved in the fridge from yesterday. The Citadines are all over Paris, some more $ than others. Nice one near the Opera next to Passage des Princes
I joined Democracy Docket on the basis of the happiness that the last photo of Blue gave me.
I wrote to M. Charlier years ago about the research I was then doing (book published 2024 *Second Son*) on the signs that Louis XIV was not the son of Louis XIII. I will try to get access to the remains.
I just never heard anything from Ms. Goodall that had anything to do with hate. It seems strange to me that she would approve of something with these sentiments to be aired after her death. I agree with what she said, but I cannot trust what I see anymore.
Thank you for Blue. When I see you on TV, I always "see" the photo of Bode behind you, as I see the photos of my beloved pets when I close my eyes. So we won't forget Bode but the universe is built on continuation, on going on, on perseverance, and letting go to leave way for another beauty.
to work on the mystery. Published by a small publisher so no one is aware of it. Photos of where the Man in the Iron Mask may have lived, Charlemagne, Oger the Dane, Habsburg genes...you will be held prisoner by the detective trek through 17th-century France AND...a famous tree is the biggest clue!
Try the thirteenth, rue Esquirol, restaurant le Treize...authentic small family restaurant with a patron who can make anything and local compères at the zinc...not many of these left.
Where is this taken? Was it at Place Pinel?
