Singapore, France, Netherlands | 95 minutes | English, Mandarin | English subtitles | Format – DCP
Winner of Golden Leopard, Locarno Film Festival 2018
"[A] tale of an alternative Singapore, expressed through the eyes, words and instruments of these incendiary—and at times inscrutable—musicians. It's a parable of the city, one in which the fury of the common folk bubbles without boiling over." —Time Out Singapore
"Must-watch…The story of Singapore's hardest working and longest-surviving indie band, The Observatory, is told through archival footage and interviews in this contemplative documentary by filmmaker Yeo Siew Hua on what it means to think like an outsider in a society that favours the mainstream." —The Business Times
"[An] insightful peak into the band's development over the years, how it weathered changes in creative direction, to evolve and to produce arguably the local scene's most inventive music. Not just for the fans, it's a story about the Singapore experience. Through archival footage and interviews, this is the closest one can get to The Observatory." —Bandwagon
Set in industrial Singapore, police investigator Lok must find missing migrant worker Wang. Wang suffers a worksite accident and is anxious about repatriation. Unable to sleep, Wang starts frequenting a dreamy cybercafé in the dead of the night. Hoping to look for some form of human connection in this foreign land he feels alienated from, Wang forms a virtual friendship with a mysterious gamer that takes a sinister turn. When Wang suddenly disappears, Lok digs deep into the trail leading to a land reclamation site, in order to uncover the truth beneath all that sand.
Singapore has garnered itself a reputation as a modern economic miracle, turning itself from a fishing village to a thriving modern economy over the short period of only a few decades.
Such a feat is possible due to its ability to systematically engineer a land designed through land reclamation and endless construction projects. By perpetually reshaping itself, it negates natural geographical formations, rendering them into perfectly straight and angular shorelines – a land as though imagined up by some geometrical mind.
Even the people on this imaginary land are at the same time equally imagined. As a country of immigrants, its demography is wholly dependent on migration policies and economic considerations. New migrants are brought into the fold to reinvigorate the imagination of this economic miracle – a success story that is built upon the backs of low wage migrant labourers from the region who are hired to build a nation they can never become a part of.
The Cost of Imaginations – These indentured workers live in the outskirts of the restless city; existing in the blind spot of larger society; their exploitation remains unseen. They are the invisible and imaginary – they are the sleepless, the dreamless. With no recourse for grievances, the migrant workers live in precarity. The constant fear of repatriation, with debt incurred from training and agency fees even before they start to work and earn, continue to entrap them in their wretched situation. What should happen if they go missing? Who would look for them? Would anyone even care to know? The film is premised on these questions by an unwilling police investigator, looking for a missing worker whose migrant working-class reality is so far removed from his own that it seems a far cry to reconcile. Yet that is exactly what he must do to find the missing worker and solve the case.
Transformation through Social Imaginaries – In developing this film, I too found it difficult to write about a group of people whose lives are so inextricably interwoven with mine, but yet so different from my own. It took me three years to research this topic from both the political and the human level – the migrant workers I interviewed, the company that employs them, the NGOs and activists who represent them and the government who must ultimately protect them. But I found that approaching the topic from the outside was just not enough. I wanted to know their dreams and their fears, their joys and their jokes; I needed to know what keeps them up at night. So I spent my days with them over a long period of time and started to see them in a new light, not just as a function of society but every bit as human. I found myself transformed like the character of the police investigator in my film and hope to share this new light, through the projection of cinema, with my audience.

I believe silence can change any course with a complex compromise between subconscious and consciousness. With this belief, silence creates perception and how we physically interact.
Silence that is never heard like an overtone without the laughter, movement, fear and anything between like harmonics. The paintings I created are my reflection of this belief. The colors are silence that will be carried by perception from the subconscious and consciousness creating harmonics in any course that they be placed.

What Color Therapy / Chromotherapy is? Color Therapy provides colours to the electromagnetic body or the aura (energy field) around the body, which in turn transfers energy to the physical body. This makes chromotherapy the most effective among various therapies. In other words Chromotherapy is a method of treatment that uses the visible spectrum (colours) of electromagnetic to cure nondegenerate diseases. It is a centuries-old concept used successfully over the years to cure various diseases. Each of the spectrum colours is simply light of varying wavelengths, thus each colour has its own particular energy. The energy relating to each of these spectrum colours resonates with the energy of each of the seven main "chakras of the body". If you can imagine the chakras/energy centres as a set of cogs/wheels, they are rather like the workings of a clock or an engine; each cog /wheel needs to move smoothly and at a similar speed for the clock/engine to work properly. Thus good health and well being is achieved by a balance of all these energies (or the smooth running of the cogs/wheels). Colour therapy can help to re-balance these 'wheels' by applying the appropriate colour to the body and therefore re-balance our chakras.
Tama-Do Academy was founded in 1988 by French musician, composer, acupuncturist, researcher and bio-energetician, Fabien Maman, whose revolutionary biology experiments in the early '80s showing the impacts of acoustic sound on human cells, created the field of vibrational sound therapy, as we know it today. (His studies started with Albert Einstein's Relativity Theory.) For nearly 30 years, Fabien Maman has created research and practical applications using Sound, Color and Movement® to balance the body, mind and spirit through the subtle energy fields (aura). He has created serval techniques through the Academy and is in the process of developing several more. For more information please visit their website here.
I'll will be showcasing "Crowd Surfing" watercolor on a Satellite from my new series "People Watcher".
Looking forward to sharing more details.

Irish troops prepare for the wreath-laying at the Lusitania Peace Memorial, Cobh (Photo: Centenary News)
Lusitania Centenary: Ireland's day of tribute on the Cork coast
Posted on centenarynews.com on	09 May 2015
Centenary News reports from Cobh, where thousands of visitors packed the streets on May 7th 2015 for a day of tributes to mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Lusitania.
Descendants came to the Irish port from across the globe to share stories of the passengers and crew who survived the German U-boat attack on the Cunard flagship, and those who didn't.
Ireland's President, Michael D. Higgins, said it was a moment "to remember the lives cut short and the futures and the possibilities denied by the tragedy visited on unsuspecting voyagers who thought they were in safe reach of their destination."
On a sunny afternoon, much like the weather 100 years ago, the siren of the present day Cunard cruise liner Queen Victoria blared mournfully across the waterfront at 2.10pm to remember the moment the torpedo struck.
It sounded again at 2.28pm, a reminder to all those present that the Lusitania sank in just 18 minutes with the loss of 1,200 lives.
President Higgins led the tributes at the Lusitania Peace Memorial in Cobh, the port on the County Cork coast formerly known as Queenstown.
The British, German and American ambassadors, together with representatives from Cunard, joined Ireland's head-of-state in laying wreaths at the monument overlooking the harbour.
Speaking on the waterfront, Mr Higgins reflected that the sinking of the Lusitania had been a "critical chapter" in the history of the First World War, "filling the pages of many books and articles" in the decades since.
But the Centenary was a day for remembering the human tragedy of the passengers and crew who died, he said.
The President also spoke of the "almost unthinkable horror" and "the terrible choices and anxieties" faced by hundreds of survivors who awaited rescue in the icy waters of the Celtic Sea surrounded by the bodies of the dead.
"We come here then today to think of those men, women and children and what they endured and we think in particular of the rapidity and generosity of those communities who rose in response to the living, the survivors and the dead," Mr Higgins said.
Descendants left their own tributes to family members after the official commemorations were over.
Among them was Haylee Cole, an Australian student currently studying in the UK.
Her great grandmother, Gertrude Adams (pictured above) survived the Lusitania disaster. But Gertrude's two-year-old daughter, Joan, died.
Haylee told Centenary News that she'd been greatly honoured to lay a wreath on behalf of family members so far away in Australia.
The day culminated with a flotilla of illuminated boats sailing into Cobh harbour in tribute to the rescuers, many of them fishermen, who returned at twilight on May 7th 1915 with the first survivors and bodies of the dead.
Commemorations marking the Lusitania Centenary were also held in the communities of Courtmacsherry, Kinsale, and the Old Head of Kinsale, the closest landfall to the scene of the torpedo attack 19 kilometres (12 miles) off Ireland's southern coast.

Abstract: Based on the visual material of the collection "Russian lacquer miniature" of the Russian Museum of Decorative-Applied and Folk Art, the author examines the gallery of city images in the Russian and Soviet lacquer miniature, as well as suggest the original typology of images, locating them between the poles of the "real" and "utopic". The images of the city panoramas were analyzed in the context of the replacing each other "regimes of vision" and supported by the power of technologies territories. The author describes the changed in the approaches towards representation of the urban space in the lacquer art, as well as follows the transformations the image of a city in perception of its residents. From the methodological perspective, the author bases herself upon the principles of visual research and structures the analysis of the content of images taking into account the social context of their existence. This work develops the tradition of studying the subjects with lacquer paining as a part of the Russian and Soviet material culture. Along with the introduction into the scientific discourse of the new visual historical sources, the result of the research consists in the fixation of the accompanying the change of historical eras dynamic of the visual culture, which is expressed in expansion of the "principles of vision" of the urban space, as well as the types of its imagery on the subjects with the lacquer miniature painting.
Abstract: The subject of this research is the belts to the women's clothes of the late XVIII – the early XIX centuries. The authors conduct an analysis on designing the women's national belt of this period from the fund of the National Historical Museum of Nalchik. Women's clothes is directly associated with the ornamental art, particularly with jewelry accessories. Women's belts are being studied by several different aspects: by shape, size, varieties of ornaments, designing techniques, etc. The meaning and role of belt in the life of Cherkess women is being examined. The method of this research is the study of reconstruction, designing technique and varieties of the women's national belt, the analogue of which became the belt from the fund of the National Historical Museum of the Kabardino-Balkar Republic. The authors conclude that the silver belt were able to afford only the women from wealthy families; young ladies wore narrow belts, while the wide ones were more suitable for the status of older women. With the transformation of women's clothes, takes place the design modification of the belt. It lost its functionality; the contemporary seamstresses simplified the shape of the belt. The world currently undergoes the processes of globalization, as well as experiences changes in the design of the ancient wares.
Abstract: The object of this research is the traditional Buryat costume, peculiarities of its current existence as an identity system in modern space of the global worldview and transnational cultures. The subject of this study is the specificity of using the unique features of Buryat costume as a source of autochthonous characteristics of the "place" in creating the souvenir gifts. The thoroughly examine such aspects, as color and ornament in the national Buryat costume, and their role in revealing the authenticity Buryat culture. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of regional souvenir products in the context of researching the problems of cultural identity, images of ancestral ethnic costume, which are used for creating the image souvenir products of Buryatia, reflecting the actual specifics of the "place", rather than "imaginary identities". Methods of comparative-historical, ethnographic analysis and marketing research applied during the course of this research allow collecting the extensive ethnic material, review a diverse assortment of products presented in the souvenir market of Ulan-Ude and the republic, as well as compare the original models of traditional clothes and samples of souvenirs depicting the national costume elements and/or ethnic images. The scientific novelty consists in the highlighted ethnonational features of the costume, color systems and the specifics of ornamental decoration, most popular elements Buryat clothing, tranlated as the identifying codes, as well as their interpretation in souvenir products. An important role is also played by the tribal differences of a costume as a distinct "identifier" that allows distinguishing the ethnic images, including in souvenir products. Using the individual characteristics of Buryat costume in manufacturing souvenir products will provide opportunity to expand the assortment of souvenirs, separate Buryat motifs from the similar Mongolian, as well as achieve deeper "association" with the culture of this region, turning souvenirs into the image products of the "place".


The worst-case scenario the Dallas Cowboys were expecting came to fruition as an MRI on John Phillips' right knee confirmed the tight end will miss the entire season with a torn ACL.
The loss is two-fold because Phillips was a versatile contributor on offense and special teams. There are depth issues now, according to Todd Archer of the Dallas Morning News, as No. 2 option Martellus Bennett has a sprained ankle. Kevin Brock is now battling a high ankle sprain leaving Jason Witten and Scott Sicko, an undrafted free agent, as the only healthy bodies on the roster.
Per Archer, you can expect the Cowboys to sign a tight end soon, if for nothing else than to be able to make it through practice.

3 people dead, dozens injured after massive explosion at French bakery
OAN Newsroom
UPDATED 9:30 AM Sat. Jan. 12, 2018

Spring roster out — UPDATED Aldrich, Ikehara not on roster
The dawning of spring practice also means UW has updated its football roster.
And there's two notable omissions — defensive end Kalani Aldrich. No explanation given yet, but he's battled knee issues throughout his career and as a fifth-year senior, may just be giving up the game.
Aldrich figured to vie for a backup spot this season after making four tackles in 13 games last season.
Also not on the roster is OL Mykenna Ikehara, also apparently simply not returning to the team for 2011. He would have been a junior vying for backup time on the OL this season. He played sparingly last year.
Also, while Austin Seferian-Jenkins is listed, Jarett Finau — who also had been expected to enroll in time for spring — is not, so we'll see at noon what the situation is with that, as well. Finau is listed among the 21 incoming recruits.
And Johri Fogerson, who is indefinitely suspended but has a chance to return to the team, remains on the roster, as well.
The PDF version also designates those who are walk-ons. It lists 85 total players for the spring (those coming in the fall are not on the roster) with 19 walk-ons.
UPDATED — The earlier information on Kiel Rasp was incorrect. He remains listed as a walk-on, officially.
So, I have 66 players currently listed as on scholarship, with 21 due to arrive in the fall. The number of scholarship players includes a few former walk-ons put on scholarship last fall, however, so there's some wiggle room there to get to the limit of 85, which doesn't have to be reached until late September when everyone enrolls.

If sending photos, take close-up photos and also photos of the whole plant, and please make sure they are in focus.
Bring samples in closed plastic bags that have your name and phone number written on them.
Lawn samples: Cut a 4" X 4" square from your lawn at the edge between the healthy green and the brown or affected area, including the roots and soil, and put it immediately in a closeable plastic bag to keep any insects in the sample and to keep the sample fresh. The blades should still be attached to the runners and make sure the sample grass is not completely dead.
Leaf samples: Cut off a short piece of a branch that has both healthy and affected parts, and put it into a closed plastic bag to keep the leaves from drying out. Keep the leaves on the branch if possible. Bring leaves that are in the process of being affected, rather than leaves that are completely brown and dead. Take note of what parts of the plant are being affected, whether lower or upper branches, tips of branches or areas nearest the stem, new growth or old growth, one side of the plant or randomly all over the plant.
Weed samples: Weeds are difficult to identify unless they are flowering, so it is best to pull a sample up when it has a flower head or seeds on it. Seed samples: Put samples of seeds, including pecans, in closed plastic bags to keep in any insects and to keep the sample fresh. Include more than one seed if possible.

1935: An Introduction
It's only been one week since we closed the books on 1950 but, here we are, ready to journey through the films of 1935! A year where the short-lived category of Best Dance Direction was introduced (bring it back!), one winner wasn't even nominated (huh?), and the number of nominees per category could be anywhere from three (as with Best Song) to twelve (as with Best Picture)...
Best Sound Recording, for instance, had nine nominees, one from each of the studios operating at the time.
As far as I understand, each studio was automatically nominated, with their studio sound departments and department heads nominated instead of individual mixers/designers/editors. How the studios chose the one film to represent their entire year's body of work, I don't know, but it made for a varied slate of films. In addition to Best Picture nominees Captain Blood, The Lives of a Bengal Lancer and Naughty Marietta (the eventual winner), as well as the thrice-nom'd melodrama The Dark Angel, we have:
$1,000 a Minute - a screwball comedy about a broke journalist who could win $10,000 if he spends a wealthy duo's $1,000 a minute for twelve hours. Chaos and laughs, laughs and chaos. A good if dismissable time.
The Bride of Frankenstein - while the Monster wanders the country looking for acceptance, a mad scientist convinces Dr. Frankenstein to make a monstrous mate. Great nominee here, for the zap-zap laboratory, the destruction of the windmill, the explosion at the end. Great movie, too.
I Dream Too Much - singer falls in love with a composer, she becomes a sensation while he wallows in obscurity. One good number in "The Jockey on the Carousel," but otherwise a not-too-great melodrama. Not sure about this Lily Pons as an actress. Here for the musical numbers, OK.
Love Me Forever - A billionaire sacrifices everything for the career of a singer he loves. Terrific sets, all over the place tonally. Here for the musical numbers, obviously, and that's fine.
Thanks a Million - An entertainer is chosen to be a dark horse candidate by corrupt politicians who think they can manipulate him. Fun film! Nominated for the musical numbers and big political rallies.
As for that first point - for the second and last year, the Academy allowed write-in candidates if the voters disagreed with the choice of candidates on their ballot. Such a thing was implemented the previous year when Bette Davis failed to make the official nominations for Of Human Bondage. It was repeated to entice members to vote and attend, as there were multiple guild strikes happening at the time of the awards. For the first time, the accounting firm Price-Waterhouse was hired to tally the votes, and during the ceremony, in addition to the winner, second- and third-place finishers were announced. That's how we know Paul Muni in Black Fury wasn't nominated but still came in second. Even crazier, it led to the only write-in winner in the ceremony's history: A Midsummer Night's Dream for Best Cinematography.
The "official" nominees it defeated included Best Picture nominee Les Miserables, plus:
Barbary Coast - Edward G. Robinson runs a gambling house and the town of San Francisco thanks to his deep pockets and rough henchmen. Despite all the talent involved, not a very good movie, with everyone acting through gritted teeth. Sets should've been nominated over cinematography.
The Crusades - DeMille epic about Richard the Lionhearted joining the Third Crusade against Saladin, wedding Berengaria of Navarre, and facing a conspiracy to depose him and put his brother on England's throne. Historically accurate? Shut up! It's a suspenseful, romantic spectacle, full of great music and great performances! And great cinematography!
Now, as for that first point, the category of Best Dance Direction... Actually, let's get into it tomorrow, when we can look at all the nominees individually: Busby Berkeley (Gold Diggers of 1935), Bobby Connolly (Broadway Hostess, Go Into Your Dance), Dave Gould (Broadway Melody of 1936, Folies Bergère), Sammy Lee (King of Burlesque), Hermes Pan (Top Hat), LeRoy Prinz (All the King's Horses, The Big Broadcast of 1936), and Benjamin Zemach (She).

Nearly Starved
Deluded Women of the Holy Roller Persuasion in a Sad Plight. Discovered by George Hodges, a Timber Cruiser--Women Subsist on Shell Fish--Tells of Their Delusion--Other News.
PORTLAND, Or., Wednesday, May 16.
Five women and a tiny little baby, emaciated, worn out and haggard, and with hardly enough clothing to cover themselves were discovered last Saturday on the beach in the vicinity of Heceta Head by George Hodges, a timber-cruiser, of Salado, this state, who was forcing his way through the rough country to inspect some timber. The women has subsisted on crabs and mussels for days and were in a pitiful plight. Mr. Hodges supplied them with some sea biscuits and condensed milk and had to make his way to the nearest settlement without a bit of food.
The women told Hodges the had been sent out in the wilderness by "Second Messiah� Creffield, and while they had heard that he had been killed in Seattle, they knew that such was not the case, for no one but the Lord could have the power to take his life.
TELLS OF THEIR DELUSION (Morning Oregonian)
RESCUE IS NEEDED (Seattle Daily Times)
Mr. Hodges arrived in Portland yesterday, and he believes something should be done to rescue the fanatic women whose minds have been turned by the hypnotic influence of the man who a few days ago was shot down like a dog by young Mitchell, whose sisters Creffield had succeeded into bringing into disgrace.
"These women will starve to death or expire from exposure,� said Mr. Hodges. I found them in a most inaccessible spot on the beach, and they had nothing to eat but a few mussels gathered on the beach. They had two tents, and had prepared as best they could to await the return of Creffield, who they said had gone to Queen Charlotte's Sound to select a location for a colony on one of the many islands there.
"'Creffield is the Second Messiah,' they told me, and they would rather starve to death than disobey his instructions. He had told them to remain where they were until his return, and they refused every offer that I made to see them safely back to civilization.
HAIL FROM CORVALLIS (Seattle Daily Times)
"Four of the women hail from Corvallis, for I have seen them there, but I cannot recall their names, although I think Frank Hurt's wife is one of them.
"I was cruising timber in the vicinity when the women came and asked me to help them raise their tents, which had been torn down by the strong winds that sweep in from the ocean. They told me they had lived in the isolated spot for three weeks.�
"Creffield certainly knew where he was going when he took those women into the wilderness for a more secluded place could not be selected. It is four miles by the roughest trail imaginable from the nearest settlement, and about 14 miles from Waldport, the nearest town. The people of Waldport refuse to assist the unfortunate women, and I can see no other fate for them than starvation unless they are rescued before many days.�
Mr. Hodges expects to return to Waldport in a couple of days.

Holy Rollers Return Home
Female Followers of Joshua Creffield Rescued from Retreat Near Waldport.
PHILOMATH, Or., May 16.--(Special to the Statesman.)--Early this afternoon five women, one carrying in her arms a babe, in charge of an elderly man, rode into town in a wagon and ate dinner at the hotel. It soon became current in the town that the quintet of women were Joshua Creffield's holy rollers returning from their forest-hidden hermitage near Waldport. It is reported that when told that their leader was dead they persistently rejected such an event as impossible. They finally accepted the inevitable and abandoned their retreat and started with their rescuer for their homes.
Attack on Mitchell Fails to Carry
E. Shorrock, the prominent local banker, introduced at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce this afternoon a resolution condemning the position taken by the press in the Mitchell case as encouraging murder as a means of redress for private or family wrongs. The resolution created considerable discussion, but failed to pass and was thrown out. The resolution was as follows:
"Resolved, That we hereby deplore and condemn the action of the public press in the Mitchell case as tending to encourage the crime of murder as a means of avenging private or family wrongs.�

Abandon Hope For 'Messiah
Deluded Women Are Returning Home From Camp. All But Famished. Mrs. Burgess Starr, of Portland, Among 'Holy Rollers' Followers. Waited and Watched a Week for Resurrection of Creffield.
Were Half Starved But Still Faithful.
Five Women, Dupes of Creffield, Reach Corvallis From Holy Roller Camp, Still Believing that "Messiah� Will Arise---Were Boycotted by Farmers and Lived on Shellfish---Two Seattle Women in Party.
[Telegram Coast Special.]
(Seattle Star) CORVALLIS, OR, May 17.--The deluded followers of "Joshua� Creffield, the dead Holy Roller� leader who were destitute and almost starving in the camp at Heceta Head, founded by him, arrived her from the coast last night..
Although they had been stranded there for several weeks they appeared to be little the worse for the experience. They are still faithful to Creffield, and expect him to rise from the dead.
(Seattle Star) CORVALLIS, Or., May 16.--Over at Heceta Head, five women, one with a babe in arms, have been vainly awaiting the resurrection of Creffield.
These five are the remnants of the Holy Roller followers formerly camped at the mouth of the Yachats. They are Mrs. Frank Hurt and baby, Olive Sandell, of Seattle; Mrs. Burt Starr, of Portland, and Mae Hurt and Attie Bray, of Corvallis.
When Creffield fled from Waldport in fear of his life, Farmer Hosford, on whose land the Holy Rollers had camped, ordered them off his premises. Frank Hurt, who remained with them, moved the camp several miles down the beach near Heceta Head.
Leaving them to await the resurrection of Creffield, he went to Seattle. Since the apostle's death, relatives of the women have been trying to persuade them to return home, but for more than a week such efforts have been without avail.
This morning, however, word has reached here that they have broken camp and are returning via Alsea to Corvallis. With Creffield forever out of their lives, it is believed by relatives that Holy Rollerism will with them be a thing of the past.
Boycotted by the residents of the surrounding country, who would neither sell nor give them anything, the five women who were awaiting the return of the "Messiah� Creffield were in a fair way to starve to death. Timber Cruiser George Hodges, who found the women, said today that Farmer Hosford almost refused to give him shelter because Hodges had given his provisions to the women.
The dwellers along the beach feared an outbreak of Holy Rollerism among them more than the plague and would rather have let the unfortunates starve than do anything to encourage the male Rollers to return to that part of the country.
Hodges found the women in a secluded spot on the beach, half clad and subsisting on shellfish. He at once dumped down his bag of provisions, which they refused at first to touch, but later they reconsidered and ate as if starving.
There were two young girls and three older women, the oldest being not more than 30. One, identified by Mr. Hodges as Mrs. Starr, of Portland, did most of the talking and refused to believe that Creffield was killed by mortal hand.
Upon reaching the open country Hodges went to Toledo, the county seat, and endeavored to have assistance sent to the women, but failed. The people all seemed to fear that the slightest act of kindness toward the women would encourage the men of the party to return.
All of the women seemed cheerful and without fear for the future. They spoke perfectly rational on all subjects except their peculiar creed.
Burgess Starr, brother-in-law of George Mitchell, the man who killed "Holy Roller� Creffield, is convinced that his misguided wife is one of the five women reported to be starving on the coast of Southern Oregon, near Heceta Point.
Starr had no definite report of the women when seen by a Telegram reporter this morning, but at once said that the fifth woman, whom George Hodges did not recognize as being from Corvallis, was undoubtedly Mrs. Starr.
"It is now nearly three weeks,' said Starr, "since my wife left her home in this city some time between 11 and 1 o'clock at night. She went to Corvallis, walking, it is reported, the whole 90 miles. Later I heard that she was camped with a party of "Rollers� at the mouth of the Yachats River, 10 miles from Alsea Bay.
That the party has moved down the coast to a point where Hodges reported seeing them is entirely probable. I recognize the little child he saw as being young Hurt's baby.
"I do not think I shall make any effort to get my wife back. As long as the spell of that scoundrel is on her my efforts would be futile. there is a home for her whenever she abandons this folly and returns voluntarily, but until then she must follow the path she has chosen.�
Women Rollers Denied Shelter
Father of One Victim Turns Party Away. Rain Soaked and Hungry. Creffield Followers Camp by Ocean and Eat Clams. Rescue by Corvallis Man. O. V. Hurt, Related to All the Deluded Females, Sends for Them and Welcomes to His House.�
CORVALLIS, Or., May 16.--(Special) The story of the privations of a portion of Creffield's band of Holy Rollers, as related in today's Oregonian, is confirmed here in almost every detail. When Creffield took flight from the vicinity of Waldport and made his way to Seattle, other members of the sect soon followed, but there were left at camp Mrs. Frank Hurt and babe, 5 months old, her sister Miss Sandell, Miss May Hurt, Miss Atta Bray and Mrs. Bert Starr, the latter being a sister of Creffield's slayer, George Mitchell.
The inhospitable treatment accorded these people at Waldport induced the remaining members to make their way southward, with their meager belongings, hoping to find shelter at the home of Atta Bray's parents, who reside on the coast, 15 miles below Waldport.
FATHER TURNS AWAY DAUGHTER
About a year ago, while visiting at the Hurt home in this city Atta Bray was converted to Rollerism, and she is one of the girls sent to the state insane asylum as a result of Creffield's teachings. A number of Corvallis people have reason to believe that the girl's father was in the city gunning for Creffield about the time the apostle went into hiding under the Hurt residence.
With fresh memory of the injury wrought in his family by the Holy Rollers it is not strange that Ira Bray refused to give aid and comfort to the straggling members of the sect, even though his daughter was of the number.
NOTHING BUT SHELLFISH TO EAT
Without money, without food, having scant clothing and three or four cotton blankets only , the remnant of Rollerism went into camp where Cummings Creek empties into the ocean just south of Cape Perpetua and a few miles north of the Bray ranch on Ten Mile Creek. Here for more than two weeks they subsisted upon clams and such other food as they could gather along the beach, and having slight covering to protect them from the cold rains and winds which are usual in that vicinity.
O. V. Hurt, of this city, who is related to all the members of the straggling party, either by marriage or otherwise, having become interested in the whereabouts of his relatives, discovered their situation, and at once took means to have them rescued from what would appear to be an uncomfortable if not a perilous situation. Mr. Hurt arranged with William McMillan, of Waldport, to transport the party to that point.
RESCUE OF THE WOMEN
A portion of the way was made on foot over a narrow trail built through shell rock around the face of Cape Perpetua. From this trail a stone may be thrown into the ocean, which thunders at the promontory's base a thousand feet below. McMillan landed the refugees safely at Waldport Sunday evening last. The following morning the party came by boat to the head of tidewater on Alsea Bay, thence by wagon to Corvallis, arriving here this evening at 4 o'clock, with 60 pounds of baggage.
Milton Beem, of Lower Alsea, who transported the party from tidewater to Corvallis, states that upon the trip he heard no reference to Creffield whatever, nor to the holy roller religion. The party conversed upon general topics, and spoke frequently of the enjoyable time they had in camp on Cummings Creek.
WET, BUT WITHOUT COMPLAINT
On the way, although Beem was well protected by slicker and gum boots, he became thoroughly soaked from rain, still no complaint was heard from the thinly clad women in his charge. The entire party is now at the home of Mr. Hurt, in South Corvallis, and there is no decision concerning future movements of the various individuals excepting as to Mr. Hurt's daughter who will remain at home.
MUST RENOUNCE HOLY ROLLERISM
So incensed is Burgess Starr, of 429 East Main street, at the conduct of the "holy roller� sect that he will make no attempt to rescue his wife, unless she is willing to return to her home and give up her fanatical religion. Mrs. Starr is one of the five Creffield followers who were camped at the mouth of the Yachats River, in the firm belief that the fanatic would join them there.
"If Mrs. Starr returns to her home and gives up the teachings of the 'holy rollers,'� said Starr yesterday, "the house will be in readiness for her, but I will take no steps to bring her back. She must return of her own will.
The quintet of fanatics have about given up hope of Creffield's return and are now at Corvallis. The last act in the "holy rollerism� has probably been played.
Sister Is Against Avenger
Esther Mitchell May Be Witness for Prosecution in Creffield Case.
SEATTLE, Wash., May 15.--(Special.)-- The unusual spectacle of a sister in the role of a witness for the prosecution of her brother and defender of her honor may be witnessed when George Mitchell is placed on trial for shooting Edmund Creffield, the ex-leader of the Holy Rollers.
Miss Esther Mitchell has indicated that her brother, who says he killed Creffield to protect the honor of his two sisters, need expect no help from her at the trial. She was closeted with Prosecuting Attorney Mackintosh and his chief assistant, John F. Miller, for two hours, and today Mr. Miller said it would all depend upon the attitude of the defense as to whether the girl would be called upon by the prosecution to testify.

Те́ртий (при рождении Тере́нтий) Степа́нович Борноволо́ков (1764 — ) — учёный-химик, член-корреспондент Академии Наук, юрист, вологодский губернский прокурор, погиб при крушении шлюпа «Нева» у мыса Эджком на Крузовом острове.

C 26 января 1811 г. действительный член ВОЛСНХ.

Семья
Происходит из дворянского рода Борноволоковых. Мать Анна Васильевна принадлежала к роду Молчановых. Жена — Мария Сергеевна, дочь собирателя церковных древностей, составителя словаря русских святых Сергея Петровича Соковнина. Одна из дочерей Тертия Борноволокова Татьяна была замужем за штурманом Андреем Ильичом Хлебниковым, участником инцидента Головнина в 1811—1813 гг. и была инспектрисой Института глухонемых в Санкт-Петербурге.

Назначение в Российско-Американскую компанию
А. А. Баранов неоднократно обращался в Главное правление РАК с просьбой о замене его на посту правителя. Посланный ему в заместители коллежский асессор Кох умер в Петропавловске 25 января 1811 г. Тертий Борноволоков был назначен заместителем Баранова в 1812 г. Не заходя в Кадьяк к месту службы, Борноволоков на шлюпе «Нева» направился напрямую в Ново-Архангельск, где при сильном шторме в январе 1813 года погиб.

В Адрес-календаре на 1814 год, составленном не ранее середины 1813 года, на острове Кадьяке числилась контора Главного правителя Российско-Американской компании Александра Баранова, а также «главное российское заселение при Петропавловской гавани», при этом товарищем главного правителя на Кадьяке числился Тертий (Терентий) Борноволоков, а к порту были приписаны отставной штурман Калинин и лейтенант Подушкин,— все трое погибшие по пути в Ново-Архангельск ещё в январе 1813 года, что говорит об очень низкой скорости передачи информации из этого региона в центр и обратно в начале XIX века.

Только в 1818 г. А. А. Баранова сменил лейтенант С. М. Яновский во время посещения Ново-Архангельска кораблем «Кутузов».

Гибель
На каменистом побережье у западного подножия вулкана Эджком в январе 1813 года потерпел крушение корабль «Нева» Русско-Американской компании, направлявшийся в Ново-Архангельск. Из 124 находившихся на борту человек (49 членов экипажа, 15 служащих, 56 промышленников и 4 женщины и дочери) спаслось лишь 25 человек, которых на берегу взяли в плен тлингиты. Двоим членам экипажа удалось бежать из плена и добраться до Ново-Архангельска, откуда правитель конторы Иван Кусков отправил вооружённый отряд. В результате число спасшихся и добравшихся до пункта назначения составило 6 человек. Тертий Борноволоков выжил после крушения, его видели живым в воде, но погиб от ударов волнами о скалы.

В 1813 г., на момент гибели, Тертий Борноволоков владел в усадьбе Носково Буйского уезда 14 душами мужского пола, в деревне Павлыгино Макарьевского уезда — 30 душами, в усадьбе Кистеге Галичского уезда — 33 душами.

Труды
 Изобличенный Вольтер (1792). Перевод, посвящён Николаю Дурново, один экземпляр подарен автором священнику села Захарьино (Богословское в Захарьине) Даниловского уезда Алексею Никольскому.
 Отцовский подарок дочери при вступлении её в свет (1808) и Советы семидесятилетней бабки внуке (1809). В первом издании сообщались важнейшие правила «общественной жизни» и христианской религии; во втором (он служил продолжением первого) этот сюжет подробно развивался. Особенно обстоятельно характеризовались «общие и нужнейшие правила господствования над людьми» (то есть крепостными). По мнению Борноволокова, «люди, нам подданные, содержатся в границах обязанности их и принуждаются к исполнению должностей их не жестокостию и тиранством, паче снисхождением, благосклонностию и в необходимых токмо самых крайних случаях благоразумною и хладнокровием управляемою строгостию». В подтверждение этой весьма умеренной точки зрения приводились выразительные зарисовки помещичьего быта, составлявшие своего рода «беллетристический раздел» этого дидактического трактата.

All our services on the Mito and Giulietta include an oil and filter change. Alfa Romeo main dealers charge this as an extra and in some cases even charge for the fuel filter on the diesel models! We change the spark plugs on every service on the petrol models.
IMPORTANT – Although Alfa quote 5 years or 90,000 miles for the cambelt service we strongly recommend it is moved forward to 4 years or no more than 60,000 miles and the table below reflects this. Cambelt change is £400 with waterpump.
1.3 JTD engines have a timing chain so no cambelt change is required.

From The Ground Up: Galactica Star's True Iconic Style
By Ben Roberts
The revolutionary 65m all-aluminium FDHF (Fast Displacement Hull Form) superyacht Galactica Star is the flagship of the Heesen fleet, and in order to get a better understanding of how this high-tech example of marine engineering came into existence, we spoke to Frank Laupman, Founder of Omega Architects.
After undergoing her sea trials in the North Sea last year, Galactica Star has been enjoying her time on the water "turning heads", according to her understandably proud exterior designer Frank Laupman.
"We're very proud of her. The owner is very happy and proud of her; he looks at her as it is his first home. He's very happy with the exterior and a very warm person, he has famous celebrity guests - you can see that in the press - and he's a many-sided man. It's nice to know a man like that is proud of what you're doing."
Heesen Yachts is the first shipyard to build a yacht which features this innovative hull configuration and uses aluminium for both hull and superstructure, providing the perfect platform for a new generation of luxury yachts. Omega Architects took this platform and created a truly iconic yacht to match.
"The owner was looking for unique design," explains Frank Laupman. "So we were briefed by the yard to make an iconic yacht. He wanted a beach club and a four cabin layout which is normal, but what we did is integrate the hull shape. The brief itself didn't make her different […] so we integrated the lower and the main deck by the means of the arch. When you see her stern you see two legs coming down in an arch which merge together the hull and the superstructure so they're melted to one shape.
This was Heesen's first successful and outstanding 50 metre plus yacht, so we tried to stretch the lines on one side and make her as quiet as possible and we have these very quiet window lines on the main and wheel house deck. The lines of the boat seem to be very simple so I think that's a good thing, but it is an iconic yacht. We're used to creating a number of Heesen platforms, and this one seems to be more outstanding when it comes to exterior designs. It's romantic but it's also powerful, it seems to be simple, but it's also sophisticated."
Omega Architects have a long running history of working with Heesen Yachts, and with a trip to the yard scheduled next week, we decided to ask about the collaboration and how this has aided both parties in the creation of these impressive superyachts.
"This is because of their expertise and we don't worry when they translate, they know exactly what we want to do – there's mutual respect so that's why it's beneficial."
What approach did you take to designing this particular yacht?
"The approach was difficult, we wanted to make a grand yacht but at the same time the approach was to make a low volume sports yacht. Sober lines, mid-leaning, strong in its presence, iconic and holds certain elements which are unique such as her integrated hull and body design – these elements aren't just there to be pretty, they serve a purpose. It makes it interesting to be on the aft deck, you find yourself in a shell which opens up to the aft – rather than a straight walk on to the outside area."
How did you find design synergy with Bannenberg & Rowell's interior?
"We worked on together Raasta, and of course Galactica Star, with them. They basically stuck with the complete GA we designed, so they stayed with the design but they have a good relationship with the owner – they don't have to call me every day so it's more of a respect than a synergy.
They made a wonderful arrangement where they have a blend of materials, they're very good at it, and they made a very homely yacht. For instance this saloon has two sections; which they used in a clever way. You get a saloon which has three sections, panoramic aft, enclosed bar section and the dining section on either side. It's big but it feels homey and tailor made for the owner – they're very skilled interior designers besides that they are very kind colleagues."
Do you have anything new on the drawing board we can look forward to?
"We have five projects on the drawing board and twelve under constructions – four new orders and most of them are going to be built. It's all confidential; it's between 30 – 75m. We have a launching of a 74 on the weekend. If you look at Galactica Star, you can just take a profile picture and she's looking proportionally correct"

Book skip-the-line tickets to Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan's most outstanding museum, and see the most prestigious art collections of the world.
The Pinacoteca di Brera is Milan's most outstanding museum and is considered one of the most prestigious art collections of the world. The collection was founded by the Austrian Hapsburgs in the late 18th century. Napoleon dramatically enlarged the collection as he planned for Milan to become a major European capital. Once Napoleon was defeated, the art works remained in Milan instead of being redistributed to the original owners. The patrons of the collections believed that a museum should benefit the whole community, and thus preserved it for visitors. Recently, two large collections of Modern Art have expanded the collection.
The Brera is wheelchair accessible. Entrance to the Brera is free for children under 18 years of age. Please note that there is a fee for the reservation.
The Pinacoteca di Brera is Milan's main art museum and well worth a visit.
The Brera allows reserved entrances every hour from 8:30 am to 6:40 pm. The museum officially closes at 7:15 pm.
The Brera is closed every Monday as well as January 1, May 1, August 15 and December 25.
Reservation requests for this museum generally can be confirmed in two business days. If you place your order on Friday, confirmation will not be available until Tuesday. Tickets are generally released 2 months in advance. If you are placing your order more than 2 months in advance, you may receive a notification that your order is pending ticket release.
The Brera is located in the center of Milan, approximately 10 minutes away from La Scala or a 15 minute walk from the Duomo. This museum is accessible by mass transit. To take the Metro, MM2 stop Lanza or MM3 stop Montenapoleone.
There was no sign at the entrance of the Brera Gallery - which is within a palace within a university- showing where the entrance or ticket offices were. We went right past the place and around the corner. Believe it or not, three Milanese within a block of the museum said that they had never heard of it!
It took us some time to find this art museum, but we enjoyed it when we found it.
We are currently updating the directions to this museum and in the future, hopefully people will be able to easily find the Pinacoteca di Brera.
Worth a visit; lots of great artwork.


The foreign exchange, forex, or FX market is one of the most dynamic markets in the world. In fact, there is a daily turnover of more than $4 trillion each trading day. Within the Forex market itself, one currency is traded in exchange for another currency. For example, the EUR is traded against the USD, making up the EUR/USD currency pair.
The FX market has become one of the largest financial markets. This may be due to being largely decentralized. The high number of market participants makes the Forex market quite volatile. The ability to trade 24 hours a day and profit in a bullish and bearish market has brought the Forex market many new participants in recent years.
Among the main participants in the foreign exchange market are governments, central banks, commercial companies, hedge funds and day traders. The daily speculation opens up enough opportunities each trading day for all participants involved.
It is vital that you follow the trading session of each major country if you are serious about Forex trading. There are constantly major economic events throughout the United States, European and Asian trading sessions. These economic events may be anything from interest rate decisions to GDP (Gross Domestic Product) publications.
Who is Forex market participants?
There are a number of Forex market participants you should learn about. These are the major players that drive the foreign exchange market each trading day. Knowing this will allow you to profit from market fluctuations and foresee when the right time to trade is.
Central Banks - Each country's central bank plays a pivotal role in driving the Forex market. They are responsible for economic growth and maintaining stability in prices. The central banks of large countries such as the U.S. Federal Reserve enable them to greatly influence global exchange rates.
Commercial Banks - Banks still play an important role in the Forex market, in spite of recent developments with regards to electronic trading. The FX market receives a lot of liquidity from large commercial banks.
Forex Brokers - The development of online Forex Brokers is quite notable. Traders use them as an interface to conduct online FX transactions through trading platforms. Most brokers make their profit through the bid/ask spread.
Hedge Funds - These are funds that invest the funds of wealthy individuals in various financial assets. They have a key role in the FX market, especially with the increasing speculation in recent years.
Individuals - There are both day traders and long term traders when it comes to the Forex market. They trade via a trading platform, buying and selling currencies according to the latest market conditions. Their importance has increased in recent years, especially due to the low barriers to entry enabled through the spread of the Internet and highly leveraged trading accounts.

Is certainly nice to see this same ignition module working on another small engine.
I have received a replacement module but I have also been dealing with a lot of distractions around here including typical holiday demands, a new roommate and I just had to replace the clutch in step van #2. And I am very grateful the weather was nice for this pain in the tail repair job I performed outdoors last week when I would have preferred doing pretty much anything else. . .
Do you think you will ever be able to work with water or fuel/water hybrid such as water and alcohol?
I wish you well and happy holidays.
Absolutely on the water/alcohol topic - but I need an adjustable carburetor first to know what is going on.
Water and fuel dont mix.
But if you use soap it wil. It works best with injection systems.
Use a t in the fuelrail as close to the injectors as possible.
Source the water fuel and soap seperate and mix them just before the fuel rail.
Use little pumps that can be frequention modulated for the mixing. Little electronic device for the percentages.
And your plasma spark to make some extra steam.
I'm looking for a CDI module that only fires once per trigger (no multiple spark discharge). Does anyone know of a few sources for these?
I don't know of any that are commercially available nowadays, but I built one years ago (1968?) from a schematic in an electronics magazine. It was fairly easy to build and did run the engine ok (67' Mustang GT with 320HP 390 engine), but caused the tach to register about 5500 RPM at Idle. So I never used it. I still have most of it lying around some where, and I think I may still have the magazine with the schematic in it.
If I can find the magazine, I'll send you the name and issue #. I could also send you a copy of the schematic if you wish.
I did find some old Tiger cdi's on ebay - it isn't for an ignition project - for something else.
Hello all; just a minor update.
Working on the project more now that winter has set in and not much to do outside and the holidays have passed.
I went ahead and produced a short update video and I'm pretty much ready to try starting the engine soon.
Aaron; you are correct in that a carburetor with fully adjustable mixture would very useful but these are pretty rare except in aviation applications.
Last summer I did manage to locate an old carburetor for a two cylinder Onan engine that I used on an antique tractor repair.
This is a Tillotson DY11A with adjustable idle and main jets.
But the asking price is pretty high... Although not really that high for what is essentially a brand new (old stock) carburetor.
If I am successful in actually getting the engine to fire on water mist or fog, then I will pursue working with different jet sizes to see if I can get the stock carb to work with water.
With regards to single spark CDI; I am not sure why you might want this so I am curious what the reasoning might be.
And I imagine it might be possible to modify the street fire to do this. Just need somebody to study and figure out the modification(s).
Last edited by Scorch; 01-10-2016 at 08:45 PM.
I want it for a small scale version of my plasma ignition motor where it only needs to fire once per trigger.
A quick search on the net did reveal these offers of tiny CDI systems made for model engines like they use for model aircraft.
Some of which appear to be an open architecture and not epoxy encapsulated making it easy to modify or study the circuit.
But I don't think any of these simple systems utilize a voltage boost inverter like the street fire system has.
Aaron, you ststed in the above that your plasma ignition works on modern cars. I assume that you mean cars that don't have the regular ignition coil that you use in the video.
I have your book Ignition Secrets and as best I can tell only the old style coil is used. I would like very much to be able to use thePlasma Ignition on my car, but I am lost because I have no coil to work with, other than the one inside the distributor. My car is a 1997 Acura CL 3L V6.
I will be unable to use the plasma ignition until I get some more information. I hope someone will be willing to tell me how to go about using this technology. And a parts list would be most helpful.

Mobile telecoms
Time for plan B
A technological escape-hatch exists for Europe's troubled mobile operators. But they are not allowed to use it
AT LAST, some good news for Europe's ailing wireless industry: Mobilkom, an Austrian operator, this week launched its third-generation (3G) service. 3G is faster than existing 2G technology, with the potential to offer whizzy new services such as sending video by phone. Hutchison 3G will launch in Britain next week. Is the 3G bandwagon finally starting to roll?
Well, not quite. In both cases, handsets are in very short supply. Sonera, Finland's national operator, was due to stage its 3G launch on September 26th, but postponed it until next year due to handset shortages. How embarrassing for Sonera, and for Nokia, the world's largest handset maker. The fact that the two firms cannot get 3G to work in their wireless-crazy Finnish homeland does not bode well.
Why the delay? European operators must, under the terms of their 3G licences (for which they paid over euro100 billion, or $90 billion), provide 3G service by particular deadlines, and do so using a technology known as W-CDMA (never mind what the letters stand for). Alas, W-CDMA does not work yet. Handsets made by one firm do not work properly with network equipment made by another, says Björn Krylander of UbiNetics, an equipment-testing company. Since operators prefer to use equipment from more than one supplier, 3G can only take off when this problem is solved, which could take a while. 3G seems unlikely to become widespread in Europe until 2004 at the earliest—and it will be several years before it turns a profit.
These technical problems, and the resulting delays, have far-reaching consequences. A number of European operators are backing out of their 3G commitments or trying to win concessions from regulators. In July, Sonera abandoned a euro9 billion joint venture with Telefonica Moviles, a Spanish operator, to launch 3G services in Germany. Orange, a multinational operator, has asked Sweden's regulator to postpone the 3G-rollout deadline until 2006. Tele2, a Swedish operator, is threatening to abandon its operations in Norway unless the licence terms are eased. And Spanish operators are lobbying for a refund of deposits paid for their 3G licences.
Back in the 1990s, the European Commission's decision to impose a single technology standard for second-generation (2G) phones, called GSM, on Europe's operators worked well. It allowed roaming from one country to another, and Europe's wireless firms, notably Nokia and Ericsson, rose to prominence as GSM became the dominant 2G standard worldwide.
Imposing W-CDMA as a single standard in 3G now looks like a big mistake. Far from reinforcing Europe's leadership in wireless, it has done the opposite. Morgan Stanley recently concluded that Asia now leads the world in the adoption of 3G, followed by America. Europe is last.
That is because as Europe struggles with W-CDMA, a rival 3G technology called CDMA2000 is working well elsewhere. Unlike W-CDMA, which is controlled by a huge industry consortium, CDMA2000 is controlled by a single American company, Qualcomm. Different vendors' equipment is compatible. Over 17m people in South Korea, Japan and America use a version of the standard called CDMA2000-1X (again, never mind). The industry is fiercely divided by a boring technical argument about whether CDMA2000-1X is really 3G or not. But ultimately the argument is irrelevant. CDMA2000-1X can do everything W-CDMA can; more, in fact, since it actually works. It is 3G in practice, even if not everyone agrees that it is 3G in theory.
In Japan, CDMA2000-1X and W-CDMA are competing head to head, and the results make grim reading for European operators. Japan's NTT DoCoMo launched the world's first commercial W-CDMA network in October 2001. Since then, it has signed up a mere 135,000 subscribers, far short of expectations.
Its rival KDDI, in contrast, launched a CDMA2000-1X service in April 2002, and has already signed up 2.3m customers. Half of those subscribers have camera-phones, which they use to zap pictures over the airwaves, spending an average of $11 per month more than subscribers with ordinary phones. DoCoMo's average monthly revenue from its 3G subscribers, meanwhile, is falling, the battery life of its 3G handsets is poor, and subscribers have to carry two phones if they want to stay in touch outside areas of 3G coverage.
No wonder operators everywhere that had planned to adopt W-CDMA are thinking again. The industry's consensus that W-CDMA will eventually grab 80% of the world market for 3G, and CDMA2000 just 20%, is being re-evaluated.
In South America, operators have abandoned or frozen plans to adopt W-CDMA. Telstra, in Australia, is leaning towards CDMA2000. Most important of all, in China, the world's largest mobile market, executives from China Mobile have given W-CDMA only a half-hearted endorsement. Adoption of the technology depends on it working properly, the company says, so a switch to CDMA2000 cannot be ruled out. "The question is, should you use the technology that is running today, or wait for one that may or may not run tomorrow?", asks David Chamberlain, an analyst at Probe Research.
European operators, however, have no choice. At least one operator has established a task force to evaluate switching to CDMA2000, says Andrew Cole of Adventis, a telecoms consultancy, and others are no doubt doing the same. But as things stand, says Caroline Easter, a technology lawyer at Ashurst Morris Crisp, Europe's 3G licences are technology-specific, and any firm that adopted CDMA2000 would be in breach of the licence terms.
Even suggesting such a switch in public would have a dramatic effect on European equipment makers, which have signed lucrative contracts to supply operators with W-CDMA network equipment. Tellingly, however, a consortium of eight equipment makers—including Ericsson, Lucent, Nortel and Motorola—recently agreed to co-operate on building CDMA2000 equipment suitable for the European market.
It is not just the imposition of a single technology standard that should be reconsidered by regulators, argues Joe Nordgaard of Spectral Advantage, a consultancy. European operators are also barred from buying and selling their licences—they must simply give them back, with no refund, if they choose to abandon 3G.
Operators also have to adopt 3G in a new frequency band, rather than phase it in alongside existing 2G, as operators are doing with CDMA2000 elsewhere. But these market distortions, says Mr Nordgaard, "can be alleviated to some extent by allowing operators more freedom."
Even if operators wanted it, however, Europe's regulators are unlikely to change the rules, even as they amend licence terms to extend 3G rollout deadlines. Defending the original policy, it seems, matters more than providing consumers and operators with a choice of technologies. Things might have been very different had Europe's operators not been trussed up in a technological straitjacket.

TRIPSICHORD
Tripsichord Music Box
KIS 4037CD
$17.00 NOT IN STOCK
This Californian quintet had been known as The Ban and The Now, but changed their name in 1967 when they started to be managed by the controversial psychedelic entrepreneur Matthew Katz. They shared stages with all the major San Francisco acts of the era and recorded some of the best music to emerge from the city, but large-scale success eluded them and their sole album didn't appear until June 1971, well after it was recorded. It's presented here with remastered sound and five rare bonus tracks culled from earlier recordings, as well as background notes, making it a must for all fans of true U.S. acid rock.
