Vitré (Breton: Gwitreg) is a commune in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany in northwestern France.
Vitré, a sub-prefecture until 1926, is the seat of a canton of around 16,834 inhabitants (2010). It lies on the edge of Brittany, near Normandy, Maine, and Anjou. The town has been designated a ville d'art et d'histoire, a town of artistic and historic significance, by the Ministry of Culture in recognition of its rich cultural inheritance. Vitré is the 37th French city with the most historic buildings and has 14% of the historical monuments of the department.
"If I was not King of France, I want to be bourgeois from Vitré!" Henry IV, King of France, surprised by the richness of the city in 1598.
"The good fortune to see a Gothic city entire, complete, homogeneous, a few of which still remain, Nuremberg in Bavaria and Vittoria in Spain, can readily form an idea; or even smaller specimens, provided that they are well preserved, Vitré in Brittany, Nordhausen in Prussia." Victor Hugo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Book third, Chapter 2, A bird's eye view of Paris, 1831
The city is located on the slopes of the Vilaine river, along an east-west geographic depression which the national railway on the Paris-Rennes route follows.
Vitré commune is home to 100,000 inhabitants spread throughout seven cantons: Vitré-East, Vitré-West, Argentré-du-Plessis, Châteaubourg, La Guerche-de-Bretagne, Janzé and Retiers.
The land area of Vitré: 37.19 km2 (14.36 sq mi). The average altitude of Vitré is approximately 89 m. The highest point, 127 m, is found in the "Ménardières" zone, at Pierre and Marie Curie Street. The lowest point, 67 m, is close to the firm S.V.A.'s location under the viaduct of the ring-road.
Since 1 October 2010, Vitré has withdrawn from the arrondissement of Rennes and joined the arrondissement of Fougères.
Vitré has an oceanic climate slightly degraded (type Cfb according to Koppen Classification). The city is located in climate zone Breton "South East", which includes the portion south and east of the Vilaine.
The winters are wet and mild on average, but occasionally, the annual minimum temperature can be largely negative with some severe frosts.
The days without thawing remain infrequent. The summers are relatively dry, moderately warm and sunny.
The annual maximum temperatures exceed several times a year over 30 °C and few years when this threshold is not reached.
The city has about 1,750 hours of sunshine each year (nearly 2,000 hours in 2003 and 2010). It is located in a region with relatively high relief, well exposed to winds from SW, consequently more humid with annual rainfall heights between 800 and 1000 mm (≈ 900 mm in 2001 and 2002, between 600 and 800 mm between 2003 and 2006).
At temperatures, it is little differentiated from Rennes basin in the valleys of about 12.5 °C. It becomes rather on the hills with an average annual temperature lowered to 10 °C and a certain rigor in winter with high wind exposure. On average, there are 130 rainy days per year, 70 days of fog, 15 stormy days, 9 days and 6 days of snow and hail.
Some continentality that the amplitude of temperature is greater than on the west coast of Brittany, with greater extremes (- 15 °C on January 19, 1985 and 39.5 °C on August 5, 2003 ).
Summer thunderstorms can be very violent as that of July 16, 2003 where 76 mm of water per square meter were found, which caused flooding and significant damage due to hail and gusty winds.
For the most part, these storms from the south of Brittany and in particular the Loire-Atlantique and took charge of Vitre. In the past, notorious storms have devastated parts of the city with the storm Lothar on 26 December 1999 or when the storm 15 October 1987 where a cow had the same flight.

At the end of 14th century the city had between 4-5,000 inhabitants, at a time when Rennes and Nantes had some around 13-14,000. in 1560, Vitré's population is estimated by Arthur de Borderie at 7,800 inhabitants, matching that of the towns of Vannes and Quimper.
At the time of the birth of Madame de Sévigné, about 1620, the city counted 10,000 inhabitants. The population reached 14,000 inhabitants in 1762. This population was contained within the medieval boundaries of the city, which was a third the size of the modern Vitré. In the 18th century, Vitré was the 5th most important city in Brittany after Nantes, Rennes, Brest and Lorient.
In 1789, on the eve of the French Revolution, Vitré's population reached 10,850 inhabitants. In the post-revolution period there was a significant drop in population, to 8,904 inhabitants by 1861. By 1911 a moderate increase brought the figure to 10,613. The First World War and its subsequent economic trials would reduce the population to 8,506. By 1999 the population again had reached 18th century levels, with 15,313 inhabitants and 16,834 in 2010. The three cantons of Vitré (Vitré-west, Vitré-East and Argentré-du-Plessis) counted 44,623 inhabitants in 1999. The greater Vitré-Community counts 55,464 inhabitants, including the canton of Châteaubourg.
Inhabitants of Vitré are called Vitréens.
Breton language[edit]
In 2008, 1.76% of children attended bilingual schools in primary education.[1]
Early settlement[edit]
The site of Vitré was occupied in Gallo-Roman times. The name Vitré comes from the Gallo-Roman name "Victor" or "Victrix", after the owner of a farm in the region. The year 1000 marked the formal birth of Vitré, when the duke of Brittany Geoffrey I bestowed feudal powers upon Riwallon Le Vicaire, who was charged with keeping this strategic area as a buffer zone known as the "Marches of Brittany". A parallel can be drawn with the "Welsh Marches".
A small wooden motte-and-bailey castle, on a feudal mound, was built on the Sainte-Croix hill. The castle was burned down on several occasions, and eventually was bequeathed to the Benedictine monks of Marmoutiers. A stone castle was built in 1070 by Robert Ier on the current site, on a rocky outcrop dominating the Vilaine's river valley. Certain parts of the original stone castle are still visible today.
In the 13th century, the castle was enlarged and equipped with robust towers and curtain walls. The castle integrated into the triangular outcrop of rock on which it was built a structure in the style of the castles of Philip II August. During this period, the "Vieil Bourg" including the church of Nôtre-Dame, developed on the eastern side of Vitré. The city was encircled by fortified ramparts and ditches. It was at this time that the "walled city" took its current form. The Baron directed the construction of the "privileged boroughs" around the walled city. These boroughs defined the linear layout of the streets of Vitré's present neighborhoods. Since the 13th century, Vitré has joined together all of the elements of the traditional medieval city: a fortified castle, religious buildings, churches, colleges, and suburbs.
Middle Ages[edit]
In the 15th century, the castle was modified to keep up with developments in artillery design. It was decommissioned from a military post to become a comfortable residence for Jeanne of Laval-Châtillon and her son Anne de Montmorency. At the same time, many half-timbered houses and private mansions were built inside the city. These medieval districts are characterized by their sturdy frame construction and their sinuous and dark streets, as well as by a network of lanes. From a defense perspective, these narrow streets were a confusing obstacle to taking the city. The frontages of the houses are made either of half-timbering or stone. The corbellings (projection of the higher floors over the street) helped saved space. They shielded pedestrians from bad weather, and they channeled rainwater into the central gutters, helping preserve the wooden facades.
The names of the Vitré's streets often originated from the trade guilds in the area: for example, "Baudrairie Street" was a gathering-place for "baudroyors" (leatherworkers), and there is also a "Street of Pottery".
The historical center of the city is the Place du Marchix or Market Square near the Convent of the Benedictines. The current Place of the Castle was the forecourt of the castle. The Place de Notre-Dame formerly hosted a "Market of Fabrics." Vitré, a prosperous city since the 15th century, had a brotherhood for promoting the international trade of textiles, founded in 1472.
Vitré was a city with an economy among the most flourishing of any city in the Duchy of Brittany. Its peak came in the 16th century when the brotherhoods of the Merchants of Overseas sold their hemp fabric throughout Europe. The merchants built large private mansions, producing the Renaissance elements that now punctuate the closed city. Henry IV passed through Vitré in 1598. He was struck by the opulence of these middle-class men, vitréens, and he exclaimed: "If I were not King of France, I would like to be a middle-class man of Vitré! ".
During the Wars of Religion, at the end of 16th century, the Protestant city was besieged for five months by the troops of the League under the command of the duke of Mercœur, governor of Brittany. During the 17th century, the barons of Vitré deserted the town for the Court of Versailles. The city lost its notoriety and became a quiet place.
This situation lasted through 18th century and until the arrival of the railroad in the middle of the 19th century. In addition, the end of the 18th century was marked by the Chouannerie, the end of the seigniory of Vitré and the beginning of a new and important period for the city, its role as a sub-prefecture.
The 19th and 20th centuries[edit]
To prepare for the arrival of the railroads, the city decided to destroy the southern fortifications of the city to open up the closed city and to improve visibility. The Door "d'En-Haut" (1835), "Gâtesel" (1839) and "d'En-Bas" were destroyed to make way for developments in the south of the closed city.
Vitré has been a railway hub since the first lines were opened on 15 April 1857 on the Paris-Brest line. The construction of the station was carried out in 1855 in the form of a small neo-gothic manor house in the downtown area, just south of the closed city. The city was literally cut in two by this important railway influence. However, in spite of these industrial developments, the city developed little and remained a small market town within an agricultural area. Moreover, it lost its statute of sub-prefecture in 1926.
Vitré did not suffer massive destruction during the two World Wars, and preserved its historical inheritance, with the exception of Fougères, which underwent a terrible bombardment in June 1944, destroying a good part of it. In the aftermath of the Second World War, Vitré experienced an economic boom along with the rest of France.
From 1950 on, Vitré grew extensively. During "the thirty glorious years", Vitré experienced massive rural migration, like many other towns of France.
This migration triggered new building developments, including modern six-story buildings in the "Maison Rouge" district. The city has considerably developed and extended with industrial areas and suburbs. The population of Vitré expanded from 9,611 inhabitants in 1954 to around 17,000 today, an increase of 80% over half a century. Inner-city areas are protected to conserve the town's rich heritage of art and architecture. In 1999, Vitré obtained the label "Town of Art and History" because of its rich cultural inheritance. The town's monuments attract many tourists each year.
The heritage of the town of Vitré is a tremendous wealth. This is one of the cities of Brittany that has best preserved its original appearance with its houses with porch or timber-framed (the third city after of Rennes and Vannes in Brittany), its ramparts, its religious heritage, old streets, etc.. Vitré is a perfect example of a town of 500 years ago.

South Africa and India drew an epic test on Sunday as the top-ranked South Africans - written off completely at the start of the final day - fell just eight runs short of a record run chase and one of cricket's greatest yet most improbable victories.
Facing a mammoth target of 458 to win the first test, South Africa finished on 450-7 after putting itself on course for a stunning win through a 205-run partnership between Faf du Plessis and AB de Villiers, who both made centuries. In a final twist, the hosts then had to turn runs down to save themselves with tail-enders at the crease in a hectic finish at the Wanderers.
No. 2-ranked India clawed its way back in the gripping finale that befitted a meeting of the format's best teams to remove De Villiers for 103, Duminy for just 5 and Du Plessis to a vital run out for 134 when South Africa was within sight of the momentous win.
"We lost it a bit when AB and Faf were batting but we came back," India's Virat Kohli said.
South African tailenders Vernon Philander and Dale Steyn were left clinging on for the draw and ultimately playing it safe and choosing to defend when so agonizingly close to making cricket history.
Just before Ajinkya Rahane's throw crashed into the stumps with Du Plessis sprawling to make his ground for the game's most crucial moment, South Africa incredibly needed only 16 from 20 balls.
"Everyone was pretty shocked, honestly," Kohli said. "We didn't think they'd stop going for that score."
South Africa captain Graeme Smith said the decision to play for the draw at the end - effectively the last three overs - and save the game after all South Africa had achieved through three grueling sessions was made by the batsmen, Philander and Steyn.
The skipper said he backed them completely despite rumblings of discontent from the crowd at the very end of an enthralling day.
"The knocks that AB and Faf played, everybody would have been saying what an incredible effort," Smith said. "We mustn't lose sight of that in the emotion. You understand the emotional side. I think the context was that it was an unbelievable test match ... I don't think too many people gave us a chance (of drawing)."
Actually, no one did, with South Africa facing over a day to survive after India batted supremely in its second innings, mainly through Cheteshwar Pujara's 153, to apparently put itself in an unbeatable situation. South Africa also was down a batsman with tailender Morne Morkel injured.
Yet, South Africa's 450-7 was the third-highest fourth-innings total in more than 2,000 games of test cricket over nearly 140 years, and would have been the highest successful chase ever if the Proteas had got to the 458.
"I'm very happy that we pulled it through," Du Plessis said, hailing the draw. "Like Graeme said, a lot of people wrote us off."
Steyn, having survived, hit a six off the last ball of a match India was expected to win with ease and ended up almost losing, then almost only just winning, and finally drawing in a roller-coaster of emotion for both teams.
"That inside edge of AB's (De Villiers) opened things up for us. Then we got JP (Duminy) out," Kohli said. "We thought we're going to win the game. Then Vernon (Philander) came in and struck a few boundaries and we're on the back foot again. Then we ran Faf (Du Plessis) out, we thought we could win it again.
"There was too much going on at the end. Just a very enjoyable test match."
No team has ever scored more than 418 to win a test. South Africa would not only have shattered that record with another eight runs, but its total would have stood out as the second-highest ever fourth innings score irrespective of the result, with only England's 654-5 in the famous timeless test of 1939, which was not limited to five days, ahead of it.
That fourth-innings total will probably never be beaten in the modern game.
The only other last-innings score ahead of South Africa's on Sunday was New Zealand's 451 in a losing effort against England a decade ago.
Du Plessis was South Africa's savior as he fought for over a day for his third test century to ensure, whatever happened, South Africa didn't lose.
But India also showed huge resilience under wrenching pressure near the end to pull South Africa back from the brink of what would have been one of test cricket's greatest victories, and also famous losses.
Seamer Mohammed Shami was outstanding with his 3-107 and his controlled finish, along with Rahane's individual brilliance in running Du Plessis out with a direct hit, probably prevented South Africa winning when Philander's late 25 not out suggested South Africa still had more

The first time I tried using ADB after updating my PCs to Windows was a very unpleasant experience. What worked so well on Windows 7 was apparently borked in Windows 8 thanks to the new driver verification system that disallows unsigned drivers from running without this mode being first disabled, which requires a reboot. Upon subsequent reboots, driver verification is re-enabled, making the entire process tedious and beyond frustrating. I've since resorted to using a portable version of Linux Mint install virtualized within Windows – a less than ideal setup, it is.
Haven't you been waiting for something better to do with your photospheres than just uploading them to Google+ for other people to enjoy? Thanks to Photosphere Live Wallpaper, you can finally place them front-and-center on your home screen. The idea is simple, a live wallpaper that uses your spherical photography as a background. It's one of those ideas we've all thought of, but until now, has remained absent from the Play Store.
We've become pretty wary of featuring Kickstarter projects here on Android Police - too many have overpromised, under-delivered, or just delayed themselves into oblivion. (I'm looking at you, Star Command.) But this one has too much potential to ignore. A pair of San Mateo engineers have created a MicroSD card reader that plugs right into a MicroUSB port, making it a perfect travel companion for phones or tablets with no expandable storage.
Update: It looks like Facebook has killed the leak remotely. Users who installed it are now reporting that their feeds have gone dark. Oh, well. It was fun while it lasted.
Facebook Home, the company's trumpeted home screen replacement effort, has been a popular point of discussion since before it was announced.
For those who missed the announcement, Facebook is looking to replace your device's normal launcher with a continuous in-your-face social bonanza, featuring a huge news feed on your lock screen, a new pop-up chat called Chat Heads, and pretty complete integration with the social network, allowing for status, photo, and other updates on the fly.
There is no joy in Taoyuan this morning, as HTC's first quarter financial results have become public. The Taiwanese company has reported the lowest profit in its 16-year history, with just $2.8 million USD ($85 million Taiwanese dollars) in net income for Q1 2013. It's the sixth quarter in a row that HTC has posted declining profits, and a staggering year-over-year drop of 98%.
The news came from a somber release on HTC's website, without any of the usual fanfare.
The final piece of the Play Store 4.0 puzzle was posted on Google+ today. A YouTube employee by the name of Eileen Rivera posted a screen shot of previously-unseen Play Store front page:
The design is a perfect match for the leaked build we got to play with a few weeks ago, and, if you ignore the action bar, a big improvement.
Of particular interest is the new Up button, which features the Play Store logo and a bone in a dog bowl.

Assistant Attorney-General Michael Chertoff, who was in attendance, had no comment, but one defence lawyer said Moussaoui's reversal was clearly a setback for the Justice Department.
Moussaoui's legal about-face came one week after he stunned the courtroom by trying to plead guilty to at least some conspiracy charges. At that time, Judge Brinkema told Moussaoui to take a week to think about the consequences of admitting to charges that could bring him the death penalty. Moussaoui indicated then that he would not waver from his intention to plead guilty, and that he was a member of al Qaeda who had pledged allegiance to Osama bin Laden.
On Thursday, Moussaoui, 34, seemed far less defiant than he did a week before. While admitting to some involvement in terrorist activities, the French militant of Moroccan descent also insisted he had nothing to do with the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon.
He suggested, for instance, that he spent time in an al Qaeda camp in Kandahar, Afghanistan, and may have provided some training for terrorists and even food for one of the hijackers in the September 11 attacks. He also said he "may" have received money from one of the hijackers.
"I can say I might have engaged in these," Moussaoui said, his palms resting on the lectern as he calmly faced the judge. "But it doesn't put me on the plane."
Justice Department officials refused to discuss any prospects for plea-bargain negotiations with Moussaoui and said prosecutors were moving to a scheduled September 30 trial.

SOUTHEAST TEXAS - Hundreds of people waved flags and lined streets in Southeast Texas to welcome home a Marine who was seriously hurt when he stepped on an explosive device in Afghanistan while rescuing another serviceman..
KFDM reporter Leslie Rangel is covering the welcome home. Watch Live at 5 and KFDM News at 6 for more on the story.
Sgt. Joshua Yarbrough lost his legs in the blast.
He spent months in a hospital and in rehabilitation before returning home Friday afternoon to Southeast Texas.
Hundreds of students waving flags and holding welcome home banners lined the streets in front of Hamshire-Fannett campuses as a motorcade of vehicles, including a number of law enforcement vehicles and Patriot Guard riders, passed by.

Thank goodness for the letter by Winter Dellenbach to save Buena Vista. All of us deserve protection against development driven by shear ambition to dump low income neighbors, and profit on disposessing them by cashing in on quick real estate flips.
And beyond the need to stand up for this neighborhood, we have the chance to stand up for the richness of diversity. Our city is socially and culturally impoverished when we encourage tear-downs and rezone for profit over people.
I urge the the city planning commission to hold strong against pressure from developers and firmly protect the integrity and neighborhood community of our friends and fellow Palo Altans of Vuena Vista.

Thank you Winter Dellenbach, for caring about those less financially fortunate and reminding the rest of us to sit up and take notice of the needs of our neighbors. I for one do not want to see our neighbors bull dozed under for more condos. I also believe we are a better city if we are a city of diverse citizens. I say no to rezoning Buena Vista Park.

If the trailer camp is eliminated, and even more housing is created, with some BMR units, that also has the benefit of sataisfying ABAG housing requirements...what is wrong with that?

Focus on the Family's Tim Tebow Super Bowl ad: Pro-lifers jumping on the bandwagon before they even see the commercial
No surprise, then, that individuals and groups ideologically in-tune with Focus are trumpeting the commercial, too. Witness the clip above, created by the conservative American Policy Roundtable and featuring veteran Christian musician Phil Keaggy, as well as video testimony by Jay Riemersma, a Congressional candidate from Michigan. See it below.
Of course, neither the APR folks nor Rimersma have actually seen the ad. Imagine how much run Focus on the Family will get once it actually airs...

Bicycling Advocacy
While You Were Out Riding, Bike Advocacy Became Cool
April Economides
8 / 13
Founder, Green Octopus Consulting
Long Beach, CA
Economides says she's not so much a bike advocate as a business expert who, through her work at her firm, provides analytical evidence on the retail bounce that growing numbers of cyclists provide: "Sales go up, property vacancies decrease, and the area becomes more vibrant." She designed the nation's first bike-friendly-business-district program, in the city of Long Beach, then started the largest program of its kind in San Diego, where 18 neighborhoods cater to cyclists. She has jump-started more than 30 other such efforts around the US and Canada. Cruising around Long Beach in a cargo-friendly "bike limo" with her eight-year-old daughter, Economides embodies her dollars-and-sense presentation. "We travel at human speed," she says. "We notice more businesses than we would in a car, and we can easily hop off and walk in."

text: DARREN ANDERTON is convinced his injury nightmare is firmly behind him after visiting an American specialist last summer. The Tottenham Hotspur midfielder, dubbed 'sicknote' due to his persistent injury problems, has played 30 games this season and is hopeful of booking a place in Sven Goran Eriksson's squad for the trip to the Far East in the summer. "Dr McShane (American specialist) was recommended to me by a friend and I was lucky I found him," admitted Anderton. "I had no idea what was wrong with my Achilles tendon but Dr McShane detected a tear using a special scanner. "This is the most consistent season I can remember since I was a youngster." Anderton is hopeful of making the England World Cup squad in the summer but fears the persistent injury trouble has deprived of him of that extra yard of pace. "Going to the World Cup would be wonderful, but I am not expecting anything," said the ex-Portsmouth man. "I am getting back to where I was and it is going well. But I don't know if I am as good as I used to be. All those operations have taken their toll on my pace. "I am a different type of player now and if people think I am dominating games that is because I am playing in a good football team." Meanwhile, another World Cup hopeful, Gary Doherty, is optimistic of returning to the Spurs line-up and making a late bid for a place in Ireland's squad. "I am going to have to fight for a place but I need at least 10 games for Spurs to have a chance of a place in the World Cup squad."
