Readings and Books available Almost Two Million
in English For Anglophones Euros Collected
nglophones—both guests
and residents—have not
been forgotten in the
planning for the first edition of
the Book Festival, an event
which began in Saint Barth on
Thursday evening. On Saturday,
April 19, a poetry reading in
English, especially for Anglophones, will be held at 7pm at
the Tamarin restaurant in Saline.
This evening also includes a
reading in French and dinner for
those who wish to linger a little
longer with the two special
guests of the festival, French
playwright, novelist and poet
Jean-Pierre Siméon, and Chilean
poet-painter Luis Mizon, who
has lived in Paris since the early
1980s. On Sunday, during the
book exchange, there will be
quite a few volumes available in
English, and everyone is invited
to take part. The idea: you bring

the books you would like to
exchange, and trade them for
others that would you like to
read… and it’s all free. If you
don’t have books to bring, not to
worry, you can always choose
one or two from those that have
generously been donated. The
book exchange is part of Saint
Barth’s celebration of World
Book Day, launched by
UNESCO in 1995, and which
provides the opportunity for the
authors on the island—as well as
invited guests—to host book
signing. There will also be events
for children, a booth for the
island’s bookstores, and a booth
for representatives of UNESCO,
the co-organizer of the event,
which is dedicated to the heritage
of Saint Barthélemy.
The closing event of the Book
Festival is an open-air lunch at
Zion Garden in Saline on Sunday, April 20—open to all. See
inset for Book Festival details.
2,160 “businesses,” of
which 309 are real
estate holding companies (SCI), have paid
the new business tax
put into place as of
January 1, 2008,
bringing in a total of
925,120 euros. This
fixed annual contribution (CFA) is set at
300 euros, plus an
additional variable
amount of 100 euros
per employee, with a
ceiling of 5,000 euros.
The new annual tax
for motorized vehicles
on the roads, called a
“vignette” (for the
sticker placed on the
windshield), was also
instituted as of January 1, 2008, and has
brought in almost one
million euros for the
COM. A total of 7,154
owners of two and
four wheeled vehicles
have paid the tax:
there are 545 questionable cases caused by
errors or lack of information concerning the
fiscal tax base on the
vehicle registration
cards, meaning that
the owners could not
pay the appropriate
tax. They have been
given a delay, until
June 30, without a
fine. Those who do
not have an excuse for
not paying for their
vignette will be fined
80% of the tax — for
example, 180 euros
for a vignette that
originally cost 100
euros...
Tourist Tax
1.5 MILLION EUROS
IN THE FIRST THREE MONTHS
874,389 euros for the hotels; 708,196 euros
from the villas: this makes a total of slightly
more than 1.5 million euros that have been
collected since January 1, 2008 for the new
5% tourist tax on all nightly rentals. This is a
lower number than expected by Bruno
Magras, who fears that the budgeted number
of 2.5 million euros will not be reached by
the end of the year.

Every other year since 1992,
Saint Barth has hosted the
arrival of a transatlantic sailing race called the Transat
ag2r. This event sets sail on
Sunday, April 20, from the
Port of Concarneau, the
third largest city in the Finistère region (Brittany), and
the largest tuna fishing port
in Europe. This is the second
time the race will leave from
Concarneau, which replaced
the original starting port of
Lorient in 2006.
This transatlantic event is a
race for identical single hull

Two Saint Barth teams are
taking part this year, including the youngest sailor in the
fleet, 23 year-old St Barth
native Miguel Danet, aboard
the Figaro “ConcarneauSaint Barth” with Eric Péron

Second Cybertech Challenge
WINNERS TO COMPETE IN REGIONAL FINALS
The Cybertech Challenge in the
courtyard at Collège Mireille Choisy.
R
epresentatives of
the six winning
teams in the second
annual Cybertech Challenge will head to the
regional finals in MarieGalante, May 27-29, a trip
that was not possible last
year due to time constraints. But this year, the
teams are ready for the
finals in this national
competition that was
launched a dozen years
ago in the French schools
as a means to embrace
new technology. Organized for just the second
time at the local junior
high, Collège Mireille
Choisy, by technology
teacher Charly Gréaux,
the 2008 edition was held
on the morning of April 9.
The challenge was to
06
build a car that could cover 15 feet before stopping.
The car could not exceed
a length of 15 inches or a
width of 12 inches, and
the cost of fabrication
could not be more than 50
euros. Traditional ignition
systems and motors were
not permitted, but all other techniques were possible to make these funny
little cars move forward—
and stop. 32 teams made
up of four or five students
(most of which were in
the eighth and ninth
grades) participated in the
event, which had six winning teams. The students
had worked on their cars
since the beginning of the
school year.
The winner of the Speed
Challenge was team SBH
Conception, whose car
covered the 15’ in 2’42”,
exploding the record set
last year. Victory in the
Sustainable Development
class (use of recycled
materials and renewable
energy) went to team
Dolce Playa. Les Ravette
Attitude, a team of eighth
grade girls, won the
Design Challenge (for the
best looking car), while
the Dents Molles won the
Technical Challenge for
the most creative technical solutions, and Zanoli
Crew won the Communications Challenge for the
best marketing effort. A
special jury prize went to
the Zanolies who built an
unusual car…in the shape
of a pyramid!
Active Hurricane
Season Predicted
For 2008
Hurricane activity during the
2008 season in the Northern
Atlantic could be higher than
initially predicted last
December, according to the
climate experts at the University of Chicago. These
specialists are now saying
that as many as 15 tropical
storms, eight of which reaching hurricane force, could
form during the season that
runs from June 1 through
October 30, for a total of two
additional storms and one
extra hurricane more than
they originally envisioned.
The average in recent years
has been 10 tropical storms
and six hurricanes per season. Of the eight hurricanes
that could be on the horizon,
four are expected to become
major, reaching categories
three to five on the SaffirSimpson scale, which measures the intensity of hurricanes with winds that reach
75 miles per hour (a category
three hurricane, for example,
has winds over 110 mph).
Although expected to be
above average in activity, the
2008 hurricane season
should not reach the record
levels of 2004 and 2005.

TWO LUXURY HOTELS CLOSE FOR RENOVATIONS
L
arge changes are
afoot for two of the
island’s luxury
hotels, the Carl Gustaf
(www.hotelcarlgustaf.com
) and François Plantation
(www.st-barths.com/francois-plantation), both of
which are closing this
spring for renovations. In
fact, the Carl Gustaf, a 4star hotel overlooking the
Port of Gustavia (with
some of the best sunset
views of the island) closed
two weeks ago and demolition has already begun,
according to general manager Pierre-Alexander
Maillard. “We are going to
be enlarging the hotel as
well as completely renovating the restaurant, bar,
and lounge,” Maillard
explains. The expansion
calls for a new four-bedroom suite, the Royal
Suite, to be built over the
restaurant, as well as the
addition of a small spa and
boutique. “Today, a spa is
essential for a hotel like
this, especially with the
yacht clientele we attract,
thanks to our location so
close to the harbor,” says
Maillard. The spa will
include three treatment
rooms, one single and two
double, for massage and
other services, while a
Jacuzzi will also be
installed. The small swimming pool located adjacent
to the restaurant will be
removed. The re-opening
of the hotel is set for
December 15, 2008, so the
schedule is very fast track.
“The owner came up with
the basic design ideas and
did the initial sketches,”
adds Maillard, who notes
that a French architect has
been employed for the
project. The hotel, which
opened in 1992, is named
for King Carl Gustaf, the
King of Sweden, in tribute
to the historic Swedish era
in the island’s history.
The second hotel to close
this spring is the François
Plantation in Colombier,
whose restaurant closes on
April 13 and the hotel
itself follows on May 7. In
this case, the improvements are not of the nature
to be seen by guest, but
more in the line of bringing the hotel up to date in
terms of sanitation systems
and the kitchen (the hotel
has one of the most highly
regarded restaurants on the
island). François Plantation will re-open in midNovember 2008, with
additional improvements
on the drawing board for
the summer of 2009.

Lesser Antilles Iguana : A dangerous situation
A
little over a year ago, the marine
park notified the population that
the iguanas on the island were in
danger of disappearing, especially the
Lesser Antilles Iguanas (Iguana Delicatissima) since they have been hybrid
with the green iguana (Iguana Iguana), a
common species with dominant genes.
Several hybrid species have been discovered, and the disappearance of the
pure Lesser Antilles Iguana is considered even more likely today. This is
also due to the number of feral cats,
lack of native habitat…. Here’s a look
at the situation and what might be possible in the future.

(photo: Karl Questel)
The Regional Situation
The Lesser Antilles Iguana has already
disappeared on other islands and is an
endangered species here. Until the summer of 2007, the Iguana Delicatissima
population in Saint Barth was considered pure, but that has changed since the
discovery that summer of a hybrid, the
fruit of mating between an Iguana Delicatissima and a green Iguana, brought to
Saint Barth via Saint Martin, followed
by six others in the following months.
The Risks of Hybridization
✍ Why is the green iguana
(Iguana Iguana) a menace?
First because it is bigger—it can reach
two meters in length, while the Lesser
Antilles Iguanas do not get longer than
1.5 meters. They also lay more eggs and
are greedier eaters, in addition to being
very territorial: the males cover a large
area with several females inside the
zone—and the males can get vicious in
defending their territory. What can a
male Iguana Delicatissima do to protect
himself against a male Iguana Iguana?
It is a losing battle and the invader wins
the harem—and since the females prefer
to breed with the dominate male, they
give birth to hybrid babies.
✍ Why are the hybrids considered
a problem?
The problem with the hybrids is that
they are probably sterile, yet they seek to
mate like their parents.
Other menaces:
◗ Cats: Domestic cats will chase iguanas
and while they don’t eat them, they kill
A young green iguana (Iguana iguana) captured in Gustavia
(photo: Karl Questel)
then abandon them. The increase in feral capture all the hybrids on the island and
transfer them to the marine park in St
cats adds to the problem.
◗ Dogs: Domestic dogs also kill iguanas. Martin, which has a large iguana popula◗ Rats: These rodents go for the eggs tion. With this in mind, anyone who sees
an iguana of any sort, is invited to call
and baby iguanas.
◗ Goat: Wild goats eat everything on the one of the three people below, and to
hillsides leaving the iguanas to starve.
carefully note the place the iguana was
◗ Destruction of the habitat: There are discovered, its size, and if possible to
fewer and fewer isolated places for the take its picture. This is the first step in
reviving the Lesser Antilles Iguana popfemales to lay their eggs.
◗ Mankind: the number of iguanas ulation in Saint Barth. With this goal in

move if you stop and let it takes its time.
What Does The Future Hold?
One can only hope that the iguana of
Saint Barth, an icon of the island seen
as part of the Arawak statue at the
Tourmente, does not finish like the
Arawak himself—a representative of a
bygone era.
To keep the Lesser Antilles Iguana
species alive, it would be necessary to

There's no

involved.
The grid has
numbers, but
nothing has
to add up to
anything
else. You
solve the
puzzle with
reasoning
and logic.
It's fun. It's

challenging.
It's addictive!“Fill in the grid so that every row, every
column, and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1 through
9."That's all there is to it.
