The AP and UPI reported the French Government
announced after the London bombings that it has
raised its terror alert level from Run to Hide. The
only two higher levels in France are Surrender and
Collaborate. The rise in the alert level was precipitated
by a recent fire which destroyed France 's white flag
factory, effectively disabling their military.

French Ban Fireworks at Euro Disney
(AP), Paris , March 5, 2003
The French Government announced today it is imposing
a ban on the use of fireworks at Euro Disney. The decision
comes the day after a nightly fireworks display at the park,
located just 30 miles outside of Paris , caused the soldiers
at a nearby French Army garrison to surrender to a group
of Czech tourists.
