Polanski, wife win less than expected
PARIS — A Paris judge ordered three French publications Tuesday to pay damages to Roman Polanski and his family for printing unauthorized photos — but the sums were a fraction of what the filmmaker had demanded.
Polanski and his wife had sued two French newspapers and two French magazines for a total of about euro150,000 (S217,215), complaining the publications ran photos that invaded their privacy. With most of the decisions in, they have so far been awarded euro12,500.
Many of the photographs at issue depicted Polanski, his wife or children in or near the Swiss Alpine chalet where he has been under house arrest since early December, awaiting word on whether he will be extradited to the United States on a 32-year-old sex case.
Invasion of privacy suits by celebrities are common in France, Polanski's permanent residence and the country in which he lived for three decades.

Visitor to Poe's grave misses anniversary
POETRY
BALTIMORE — It is what Edgar Allan Poe might have called "a mystery all insoluble": Every year for the past six decades, a shadowy visitor would leave roses and a half-empty bottle of cognac on Poe's grave on the anniversary of the writer's birth. This year, no one showed.
Did the mysterious "Poe toaster" meet his own mortal end? Did some kind of ghastly misfortune befall him?
"I'm confused, befuddled," said Jeff Jerome, curator of the Poe House and Museum.
only deepened the mystery over his identity. One name mentioned as a possibility was that of a Baltimore poet and known prankster who died in his 60s last week. But there is little or no evidence to suggest he was the man.
The visitor's absence this year
Poe was the American literary master of the macabre, known for poems such as "The Raven" and grisly short stories like "The Tell-Tale Heart,""The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Pit and the Pendulum."He is also credited with writing the first modern detective story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue."He died in 1849 in Baltimore at age 40 after collapsing in a tavern.
