Hole Heart
Objective : Upstream Lucifer, later.
Team: Alain and Julien CAULLIREAU
TPST : 15 hours (9am - midnight)
We find the entrance from 9am, with a little apprehensive because we did not make a big explosion for 2 years ... We join
quickly désob of -50 where we meet a nice puddle of liquid mud to cross, with only 15 cm
Descending we do a lot of photos and're accessing the network back. Lucifer in the room we made our first food break before attacking the following network.
The rise in the room on the strings of the escalation of the last time is impressive, we eat quickly 60m to reach the bend. The result is always 
s surprising inter-stratum and fault urgonian / Senonian. We now arrive at terminal 2005. Alain in the meander down on a deposit slip and fill joined a rock bridge stuck. I am, and we continue to the bottom of the meander
topo and join the other branch of the network. Here we go back a gallery that divides rapidly and ends in a small room. It divides into three tributaries. Impenetrable a bend on the right bank, a meander impenetrable left and a narrow meander difficult access to the ceiling. It will explore this part up if we establish a relationship with a sinkhole outside. We note
300m topo and come away around the hole around midnight. The recovery is long and a little depressing when you hit the tree roots but we are pleased to have discovered a vast network beneath the surface.
Now we see the topo to find a second entrance to this exceptional cavity.

INTERVIEW JULIETTE GRECO
Bruno Pfeiffer : Several standing ovations ... What is the secret of fishing 82 years?
Juliette Greco: Nothing complicated. I practice for sixty years exactly the same job: interpreter. The show, these are words and songs. I try to be light in serving the compositions of others. I am fighting for that poetry exists in the street. The public sent me something very good last night. When I arrive in Montreal, I feel like I landed in a France youth. I wanted to shake the hands of people who flocked to the scene during callbacks. Impossible: I am moving with difficulty, due to a problem with your toes.
Some interpretations, some emphases differ considerably from the original.
happy again! When Brel singing "Ne me quitte pas ", he appeared resigned, crybaby. I rageais! I disagree with his acceptance of defeat. This decline makes me beside myself. I mark my anger. The tone that I print the song is thus clear: "You are wrong leave me. You'll see: you're gonna drool . This lavish on music Jouannest because I feel more comfortable on rich arpeggios.
You inspire the side " improviser " Jazz?
I never dared. I love Jazz. However, I do not seek inspiration in the depths of this great African-American culture. J'insuffle a personal brand to pieces. What I am. All I can. As possible. However, everyone I love swimming in the music. I feel a boundless admiration for jazz.
Boris Vian? What
be wonderful! It was beautiful. From a physical beauty, at first, with its celadon green skin. Being the tenderest, sweetest, most attentive I've encountered. He had a huge heart. It gave off a finesse, intelligence ... and ferocity of a child. I looked like my older brother. He served as a psychiatrist. It helped me a lot. Effectively. I did not want to speak from the Occupation. It made my life after the Liberation. It got me out of a prison interior. The pill would have failed to voluntarily take on the day of his death? I do not believe it. It is rather died of rabies.
The Deserter?
Huge song. I never missed an opportunity to sing. Yet it was at risk at the time. I resume the compilation produced by Olivier Nuc (" We're not there to be yelled "), released in June (at Universal). I almost held to recite, because of the peace that emanates from it. Analysts pose as the anti-militaristic anthem. My opinion differs. I think Boris gives voice to a lowly peasant who does not want to offend the president but refuses to be killed and kill others. It perceives its language. The guy simply said "No to war . I have suffered too much, the war is shit." The text is an admirable purity. Nuc had proposed other new songs. I wonder if some who were assigned thereafter are his hand Vian. The claw of my Boris, I know her among a thousand.
Vian is that you initiated the Jazz?
No, already listened to radio classics like Walk Lambeth before the war.
Why not be coming to Pleyel June 23 to celebrate the anniversary of his death? You would have been the Queen of the night.
All these young singers deserved to rule the night. Me, stupidly, I was not there.
Duke Ellington?
Magnificent. Not my idol, though. Do not make me draw up a hit parade, I put all the jazzmen to equality. Unless Miles Davis. He's the best. I located at the top. It's my life.
Tell us the encounter with Miles Davis.
We were both very young. He played to Pleyel. I was broke. Boris's wife, Michelle Vian, had brought in the backstage. I saw this guy in profile. Beautiful face. He played either on a concave or so convex. Backward, then forward. Most discussed. Bizarre. I felt a harmony between the character, gestures, and the sound of the trumpet. No need to be graduated to feel he was playing in the big leagues. We went out dinner band. I did not speak his language, nor he mine. And now ... the miracle of love! I could try to sing with him. But I had no taste standards. Why, moreover, while large vocalists like Ella Fitzgerald, would have made a thousand times better than me?
Miles has come to one of your recital?
Yes, much later, in New York. The production had selected a suite at the Waldorf-Astoria. He came to dine with me at the restaurant at the top of the building. So I do not look like a hooker with a Black man, he brought the pianist John Lewis with his two children. They have been through an ordeal in the elevator. I can not tell you mine defeat of Butler when the group entered. The boy took two hours before we serve the dishes, and again, the word is not used, they almost had us swaying in his mouth, as if they were dogs that would bite. Miles could not stand that I watch these scenes of racism. His country made him ashamed. I have fond memories of this painful episode. I think that's why he did not want me to join the USA.
Like you, Miles has frequently given their chance in life at the end of his career ...
course. But competition in the song is terrible. Going to defend that of a youngster behind "Pretty same" or " Matilda".
J ' yet have the impression that you feel more at ease last night with worms slams.
(On a confidential tone, borrowing a conspiratorial air).
Do not repeat it: it is easier ...
Bruno Pfeiffer
Abd Al Malik, who signed two papers on the latest album from the great and Juliet even had the privilege to sing a duet with her Romeo and Juliet on her own album - song they performed together on Thursday evening - has a real passion for it.
Artistically, they are similar and have in common not to practice the language of wood, although this time the singer has taken a clear advantage.
asked about the disappearance of Michael Jackson , Juliet replies, "It was broken, broken. But he is not to be loaded, is his father. An absolute monster who has to world and at the same time killed him ... He finally regained his lost childhood, but it is not no Peter Pan pay dearly. "Abd Al Malik, meanwhile, plays the softer:" He brought a lot of music and opening. In this sense it is a loss. "
Juliette Greco then returns to the lineup of Festival of Ramatuelle, admits that during his lifetime Brialy would probably never chosen as an artist Abd Al Malik and when the reporter said that the actor had "dared to open" by involving Faudel few years ago, the singer replied bluntly before triggering a mad laughing: "Yes but Faudel, it sucks anyway!"
That is, it happened ... Poor Faudel, but sacred Juliette
Jean-Paul Roussillon, a stage director, had interpreted a hundred parts since the beginning of his career.
Born in 1931, Jean-Paul Roussillon, whose father worked as director of the French comedy scene, had played his first play, "The Song of Songs", at the age of 14.
After studying at the National Conservatory of Dramatic Art, he became a resident at the French comedy in 1950 after receiving the Best Actress Award for her role in "Ardele or Marguerite" by Jean Anouilh.
In January 1960, Jean-Paul Roussillon is a member of the troupe and interprets the iconic Scapin, or Puck in "The Dream of a Summer Night" by Shakespeare. In 1962, he signed his first production with "The Unexpected Return" by Jean François Regnard, then "The Doctor despite himself" by Molière in 1968 and especially "The Miser" by Molière, in 1973 that "his vision of The work on stage will create quite a stir and enthusiasm, "said the French comedy.
At 51, he became an honorary member, while continuing to stage for the French Comedy. He interprets Koch, in "West Pier" by Bernard-Marie Koltes, created in a staging by Patrice Chéreau production with the Theatre of Almond Nanterre in 1986.
Jean-Paul Roussillon had been awarded three Molière, the rewards of the theater in 1991, 1996 and 2002. Also invited to the cinema, this year he received the Cesar for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for "A Christmas Tale" Arnaud Depleschin where he was married to Catherine Deneuve.
He had played his last theater role in "The Cherry Orchard" by Anton Chekhov at the National Theatre on the Hill last spring. "He played so overwhelming role of a man who sees his life go," said Minister of Culture Frederick Mitterrand. "It was one of those that may be required in all registers by the sheer force of presence, a business wholly owned, and very often transcended by grace", he praised in a statement.
The director of the French comedy, Muriel Mayette, said for his part, Jean-Paul Roussillon had "revolutionized the staging" in the late 1960s. "He put a gravity in the comedies of Molière, the game became truer, deeper, more psychological," she told The Associated Press.
"It was a great director of actors and a great actor of his generation. He was an actor of texts. He never made a personal number, "she also said, paying tribute to the husband of Catherine Ferran, also an honorary member of the French comedy, and" fellow traveler "by Michel Aumont.
Three years later, at age 83, Madame Greco sings Undress Me (Robert and Gaby Nyel Verlor) with a pellet emancipated. She tries to apologize, but we laugh at the vanity, too. Black dress, pale complexion, light geometric wise hands, deep bass that's all Greco.
It feels first a long history of music hall, sixty years old Olympia, Bobino, NPT, Casino de Paris or Odeon, touring the provinces, galas abroad. Each year that passes in Greco is a little more knowledge accumulated, more technique, more data to play comedy, to describe reality without losing the ability to laugh and flirt intelligently.
June 8, at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris, the interpreter gives a stunning version of I arrive, our conversation with death written by Jacques Brel to the music of Gerard Jouannest, pianist, composer and here husband. Great art, a voice of a net thrown over fortuneteller accordion accompanied by piano. The room ends up, KO.
De-Jouannest Brel, Juliette Greco fills in his recital - Brussels Matilda - but also Gainsbourg - The Javanese , Accordion , La Chanson de Prévert - or Ferré - Over time , Jolie Môme . In this monumental aisle of French music, the performer made a place for Maxime Le Forestier Born somewhere , an activist theme.
THE HAND THROTTLE
Just as one will find no trace of the songs he has written Etienne Roda-Gil in 1993 or that he was offered a young generation of singers (Miossec, Biolay ...) in Love You each other or disappear ten years later, she gave up one of his classic revolutionary Time cherries, long his favorite song. But she kept as a "duty of memory" was a night train (Jean-Claude Carriere, Gerard Jouannest, 1998), reminiscent of the Holocaust and reminder that "hatred, fear, torture, blood and death "Have not been eradicated.
from his last album, I remember everything, released this spring, Juliette Greco saves four songs, all composed and written by Jouannest by young artists, Orly Chappe, Olivia Ruiz, Abd Al Malik or Marie Nimier. Arrangements scene are identical to those of the album, and like the marriage of carp and rabbit: profuse but played as a duo, designed to clothe a great voice, but often drowning.
The rabbit runs, but carp is not dumb, she is unstoppable. Geco is intense because, never in the routine, arms outstretched, hands in butterfly mimicking a breath of submission of the waitress Lovely Day (Claude Delecluse, Michele Senlis / Marguerite Monnot), its address as vous in love like a dandy The Javanese seizing Jolie Môme with authority Mother Superior.
Veronica Mortaigne
eat-generation disc generation cons Internet? Artists "Left" cons singers "right"? Not so simple. In contemporary popular debate in the cultural world around Hadopi Bill, under discussion in Parliament and whose purpose is to fight against illegal downloading, caricaturing the positions of each other's tempting. Especially after the open letter to the Socialist Party signed by four artists - Juliette Greco, Maxime Le Forestier, Pierre Arditi and Michel Piccoli, all born before the middle of last century - was published in Le Monde May 5 and asked the PS fighting the law, "again left" supporting text. The same day, "Le Grand Journal" on Canal + has heard other voices. A question from a viewer: "A choose your favorite that I download your music illegally or that I do not listen?" , Veronique Samson, Faudel, Eddy Mitchel responded bluntly: "What you do not listen. " The interpreter Licking boots blues even brought this precision, intended for music lovers: " If you download illegally, because you have poop in your ears because it gives listening absolutely wrong. " France Gall for his part, suggested a radical solution: the one who illegally downloaded his album before its release, it "kills" , because "he does not hesitate to kill an entire profession" . Conversely, Camille, Lio, Bernard Lavilliers, Mikael Youn and Grand Corps Malade prefer to be listening ... The slammer nuance his position, however: "If you got the means, go buy the record, do not crevard! This diversity of views took credit for restoring some balance, many media tend to say that artists, in their entirety, are for the web laws. Others sensitivity of both right and left, then the LP or the downloading, find the text inadequate, outdated and draconian, and Canal + has done well to remember. Street Journal
The World Broadcasting , 10-11 May 2009
The subprime crisis has certainly put an end to a great illusion, one that wanted the world economy know more seasons, it is no longer subject to cycles. This wonderful theory, born in the late twentieth century, explained that thanks to productivity gains provided by new technologies, the eradication of inflation, the emergence of large emerging economies with billions of new consumers , the world economy was promised to continued expansion and infinite, without major upheavals. The Asian financial crisis of 1998 and the crash of Internet stocks in 2000 had hardly shaken the belief that a new era had opened, made perpetual growth, and we lived directly, without really realizing it, the end - happy - economic history.
With the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, with the GDP of industrialized countries falling in proportions not seen since the 1930s, this thesis also attractive enthused lived. The cycles are back, and with them, leading economists who studied and modeled. In libraries, we look at their books again as the dust had covered.
Of these, commercial crises and their periodic return in France, England and the United States, the French Clement Juglar, published in 1862. He was one of the first to establish that beyond the apparent causes immediate and specific to each crisis, there are common elements to explain both their recurrent and inevitable. A start - like it! - By ... periodic disruption of credit and the role of speculation. "Symptoms preceding crises are signs of great prosperity, "wrote Juglar, physician training. We will notify businesses and enterprises of all kinds (...), the prices of all products, land, houses (...), the declining interest (...). A growing luxury causes excessive spending, based not on income but on the estimated capital after the share price. "Only waiting the word subprime. Using the medical vocabulary, the good doctor Juglar continued: "Crises such as illness, seem a prerequisite for the existence of companies which trade and industry dominate. We can predict, mitigate, preserve them to some extent, facilitate the resumption of business, but to remove them, is what so far, despite the most varied combinations, has been given anyone. "If
Juglar had revealed short-term cycles (eight to ten years), cycles are much longer (about fifty years) that the Russian economist Nikolai Kondratiev identified in long waves of economic , published in 1926. His work, which came to the conclusion that the capitalist economy is subjected, at regular intervals with phases of depression and embellished, it restarts after every crisis, were qualified by the Kremlin theory "wrong and reactionary," incompatible with the announced death of capitalism. In 1930, Kondratiev was sentenced in a rigged trial to forced labor camps in the Gulag, before being shot seven years later on the orders of Stalin.
Joseph Schumpeter, himself, had the chance to flee Austria and Nazism to join the United States and Harvard. Echoing by combining the discoveries of Juglar and Kondratiev, he developed his own theory of cycles in Business Cycles (1939). For Schumpeter, capitalism is subject to "periodic oscillations Tendency, "four-stroke, four seasons (prosperity and recession, depression and recovery). It is a kind of "perennial gale", periods of contraction is the logical and inevitable expansion of those that preceded them. "Not only he is never stationary, but it will never become" subject to "creative destruction" associated with ongoing innovations. What led Schumpeter to relativize the importance of crises. In the book he dedicated to the economist, Alexis Karklins-Marchay recounts the words that he wanted his students to Harvard the middle 1930s. "Gentlemen, you are worried because of depression, you should not because for capitalism, depression is a good cold shower. "
Schumpeter was convinced of the superior efficacy of capitalism to create long term wealth and increase the welfare of mankind. And they mean those who deny these achievements as "stupid, ignorant or irresponsible." But he was also convinced that capitalism could not survive, partly because citizens, as and when their standard of living rose, bear less and less what this instability and insecurity inherent therein. They would demand more and more a system seemingly more protective, more stable, more and more state, that is to say, of socialism. Much has been said that the subprime crisis marked the triumph of the ideas of Keynes. She might be, much more, the analysis of Schumpeter.

Small Business François Bayrou does not know the crisis. Bordering eye, rosy cheeks, big bust, its founder observed, greedy mine, a political scene which he became, against all odds, one of the tenors. It is true it raises, again, as much interest as irritation. Out beyond the grave, Dominique de Villepin agreed with him "common values" . Out of his reserve, François Hollande just asked the question that angry, rue de Solferino: "He's a competitor. Can he become a partner?" Under the guise of clarification is to admit that he won his lace antisarkozyste shock.
Better still, it annoys, so worried. Yesterday accomplice, Daniel Cohn-Bendit fun, with the President of the modem, a presidential obsession bordering on revelation Marian. Yesterday determined to ignore it, the Elysee getting agitated, calling populist (Xavier Bertrand) of "Le Pen Light" (Nicolas Sarkozy by Alain Minc's voice), finally " liar (Claude Gueant).
It is true that arises is advantageous: for the good people of David will always be right against Goliath and rebel against the government. Success of esteem? Maybe. But who has a precedent, which Bayrou aware, of course, no detail: that of Francois Mitterrand. In 1964, he had launched his coup permanent virulent pamphlet anti-Gaullist. Bayrou is preparing to do the same this week with his Abuse of power, firebrand cons a president who "led the
mimicry does not stop there. A conversation with the trees, talking with the other horses. The first was a "Prince of ambiguity" , the second is no exception. Like his predecessor, he asks the peasant, plays his provincial roots - the Bearn buttonhole - prides himself on literature distributed with the aphorisms compunction an oracle, displays the same taste of romance and made the presidential " the fight of his life. " short, Bayrou has donned the boots Mitterrand. It remains to prove that he was not wrong size.
