In a secret Paris cavern, the real underground cinema
Jon Henley in Paris
Wednesday September 08 2004
The Guardian


Police in Paris have discovered a fully equipped cinema-cum-restaurant in a large and previously uncharted cavern underneath the capital's chic 16th arrondissement.

Officers admit they are at a loss to know who built or used one of Paris's most intriguing recent discoveries.

"We have no idea whatsoever," a police spokesman said.

"There were two swastikas painted on the ceiling, but also celtic crosses and several stars of David, so we don't think it's extremists. Some sect or secret society, maybe. There are any number of possibilities."

Members of the force's sports squad, responsible - among other tasks - for policing the 170 miles of tunnels, caves, galleries and catacombs that underlie large parts of Paris, stumbled on the complex while on a training exercise beneath the Palais de Chaillot, across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.

After entering the network through a drain next to the Trocadero, the officers came across a tarpaulin marked: Building site, No access.

Behind that, a tunnel held a desk and a closed-circuit TV camera set to automatically record images of anyone passing. The mechanism also triggered a tape of dogs barking, "clearly designed to frighten people off," the spokesman said.

Further along, the tunnel opened into a vast 400 sq metre cave some 18m underground, "like an underground amphitheatre, with terraces cut into the rock and chairs".

There the police found a full-sized cinema screen, projection equipment, and tapes of a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers. None of the films were banned or even offensive, the spokesman said.

A smaller cave next door had been turned into an informal restaurant and bar. "There were bottles of whisky and other spirits behind a bar, tables and chairs, a pressure-cooker for making couscous," the spokesman said.

"The whole thing ran off a professionally installed electricity system and there were at least three phone lines down there."

Three days later, when the police returned accompanied by experts from the French electricity board to see where the power was coming from, the phone and electricity lines had been cut and a note was lying in the middle of the floor: "Do not," it said, "try to find us."

The miles of tunnels and catacombs underlying Paris are essentially former quarries, dating from Roman times, from which much of the stone was dug to build the city.

Today, visitors can take guided tours around a tightly restricted section, Les Catacombes, where the remains of up to six million Parisians were transferred from overcrowded cemeteries in the late 1700s.

But since 1955, for security? ?reasons, it has been an offence to "penetrate into or circulate within" the rest of the network.

There exist, however, several secretive bands of so-called? cataphiles, who gain access to the tunnels mainly after dark, through drains and ventilation shafts, and hold what in the popular imagination have become drunken orgies but are, by all accounts, innocent underground picnics.

The recent discovery of three newly enlarged tunnels underneath the capital's high-security La Santé prison was put down to the activities of one such group, and another, iden tifying itself as the Perforating Mexicans, last night told French radio the subterranean cinema was its work.

Patrick Alk, a photographer who has published a book on the urban underground exploration movement and claims? ?to be close to the group, told RTL radio the cavern's discovery was "a shame, but not the end of the world". There were "a dozen more where that one came from," he said.

"You guys have no idea what's down there."

dont be taking any chinese pills...

Fake pill gives man a hard time

Hanoi - A Vietnamese man who took a fake tablet of the impotence drug Viagra was admitted to hospital after his erection lasted two days, doctors said Thursday.

The 47-year-old man was admitted Sunday to Binh Dan Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City from nearby Vinh Long province, two days after taking the Chinese-made tablet, said a doctor from the hospital where he was treated.

The man bought the pill from an acquaintance for less than two dollars (R12) last Friday and took it that evening. The man did not have intercourse after taking the pill, but could not get rid of the erection, said the doctor who declined to be named.

Doctors performed a minor operation to drain some blood from the man's erect penis. They were not sure what was contained in the pill since no samples were available. - Sapa-DPA

5-Year-Old Cuffed, Arrested in Florida


ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - A 5-year-old girl was arrested, cuffed and put in back of a police cruiser after an outburst at school where she threw books and boxes, kicked a teacher in the shins, smashed a candy dish, hit an assistant principal in the stomach and drew on the walls.

   

The students were counting jelly beans as part of a math exercise at Fairmount Park Elementary School when the little girl began acting silly. That's when her teacher took away her jelly beans, outraging the child.


Minutes later, the 40-pound girl was in the back of a police cruiser, under arrest for battery. Her hands were bound with plastic ties, her ankles in handcuffs.


"I don't want to go to jail," she said moments after her arrest Monday.


No charges were filed and the girl went home with her mother.


While police say their actions were proper, school officials were not pleased with the outcome.


"We never want to have 5-year-old children arrested," said Michael Bessette, the district's Area III superintendent.


The district's campus police should have been called to help and not local police, he said.


Bessette said campus police routinely deal with children and are trained to calm them in such situations.


Under the district's code of student conduct, students are to be suspended for 10 days and recommended for expulsion for unprovoked attacks, even if they don't result in serious injury. But district spokesman Ron Stone said that rule wouldn't apply to kindergartners.


"She's been appropriately disciplined under the circumstances," he said.


The girl's mother, Inda Akins, said she is consulting an attorney.


"She's never going back to that school," Akins said. "They set my baby up."

This is from the Palm Beach Post a few weeks back.

Yes, I'm sooooooo proud.

Watch those early-morning drives

Trashed the Porsche? No sweat. There's always the Land Rover.

Driving fancy cars into walls near the beach at dawn is proving expensive for Palm Beacher Kevin McGann. The 41-year-old businessman was nailed by Island cops Monday morning after crashing his Land Rover into a wall in a sharp curve near radio talkmeister Rush Limbaugh's home on North Ocean Blvd.

By the time the law arrived at the scene of the 6:30 a.m. mishap, a slightly injured McGann was walking to his nearby home. He was charged with DUI, careless driving and leaving the scene.

Similar circumstances just two months ago. On Jan. 29, McGann drove his $70,000 Porsche Targa through a sea wall on North Ocean Blvd., a mile south. The Porsche plunged 12 feet into the surf. Cops found a slightly injured McGann strolling barefoot on the beach about 8 a.m. He was charged with careless driving and leaving the scene.

"There was no suspicion of DUI that day," PB Police spokeswoman Janet Kinsella said.

McGann couldn't be reached for comment.
