	Berlin Film Festival 1997
		Powell accepts that the image of EFA has declined, but thinks this was probably almost inevitable, at any rate it is in the context of what has happened to other, similar bodies.
		Powell's aim is to begin the slow process of building EFA (back) into something major, broadening the membership from the original elitist 100, and setting up Associate (non-voting) membership for anybody interested in European film.
		And top PR company DDA will be working with Powell and EFA to promote and produce the event and the ceremony, which will be held in its usual slot in December (though the precise date cannot be confirmed until a venue is fixed).

		Mr Powell, who is also Chairman of the European Film Academy which annually awards good productions within the continent, said audiences in the West were now beginning to accept films from Bollywood and China and this was a heartening sign.

	Interview: Golden Boy Makes Good
		Powell - bullish, unkempt, hip, capable of having two telephone conversations at once while reading an e-mail; a social animal who can party till 5am but still be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for a 9am breakfast meeting with a potential financier.
		Nik opined that 'with these two it shouldn't be much of a problem raising the finance.
		Despite Nik's tenacious efforts in bringing our various financiers together, we were nowhere near being green-lit - which would mean that the money's in the bank, everything necessary to make the film is in place, and barring a major catastrophe it will happen.

	Nik Turner - "Transglobal Friends and Relations"
		The rest of the album is comprised mainly of live songs from Nik's Hawkwind-revival tours of '94 and '95, some differing enough from previously-released versions (see "Space Ritual 1994" and "Past or Future"), some not.
		Still, this gets me so pumped and is a good example of Nik and co. doing more than just covering a Hawkwind song, but forcefully altering it into a new piece.
		As it was a Nik show, Len del Rio is also in attendance to add his epic keyboards, and Farflung's love for change-of-pace/build-up drama is as powerful as ever.

		He and some of the staff came back to my office, and came to see me and said ‘Nik, we’ve just watched this film, it’s completely crap, and if you were not our boss, we’d fire you.’ That’s the advantage of being a boss is people can’t fire you.

		That's because the board of the European Film Academy board reserves the right to insert late arrivals into the list of nominees, on the grounds that its far-flung members did not have enough chance to see and judge them by the voting deadline.
		Powell has spearheaded the reform of the EFAs into a more audience-oriented event since its disastrous early days as an orgy of self-congratulation.
		With its lengthy speeches in several languages, it has always been an uneasy compromise between the different factions of the Euro film biz, with their divergent views about the purpose of cinema, and what constitutes an entertaining night out.

		The general feedback was that yes, the operation to achieve full occupation of Iraq would continue.
		When asked if Iraq’s full co-operation with the United Nations could help avoid war, Colin Powell responded to CNN with “even then the United States believes the Iraqi people would be better served with a new kind of leadership.”
		So all the pre-war “diplomacy” was simply the US dancing around trying to align itself adequately to begin its long-planned occupation of Iraq.
