Len Deighton, Billion Dollar Brain Len Deighton Billion Dollar Brain Section One: London and Helsinki Section Two: London Section Three: Helsinki Section Four: Leningrad and Riga Section Five: New York Section Six: San Antonio Section Seven: New York Section Eight: London Section Nine: Helsinki and Leningrad Section Ten: London Appendices Spring is a virgin, summer a mother, autumn a widow, winter a stepmother. RUSSIAN PROVERB Two mythical countries (Kalevala and Pohjola) fight a perpetual war. They both want a magic mill that grinds endless; salt, corn and money. The most important figure in this conflict is an old man named Väinämöinen. He is a wizard and wise man. He is also a musician and plays tunes upon the bones of a pike. Väinämöinen woos a lovely young girl, Aino, but she drowns herself rather than marry an old man. KALEVALA (a Finnish folk epic) Mr Paul Getty... is quoted as having said that a billion dollars is not worth what it used to be. NUBAR QULBENKIAN Section 1: London and Helsinki See-saw, Margery Daw, Jacky shall have a new master. NURSERY RHYME Chapter 1 It was the morning of my hundredth birthday, I shaved the final mirror-disc of old tired face under the merciless glare of the bathroom lighting. It was all very well telling oneself that Humphrey Bogart had that sort of face; but he also had a hairpiece, half a million dollars a year and a stand-in for the rough bits. I dabbed a soda-stick at the razor nicks. In the magnifying mirror it looked like a white rocket landing on the uncharted side of the moon. Outside was February and the first snow of the year. At first it was the sort of snow that a sharp P.R. man would make available to journalists. It sparkled and floated. It was soft yet crisp, like some new, sugar-coated breakfast cereal. Girls wore it in their hair and the Telegraph ran a picture of a statue wearing some. It was hard to reconcile this benign snow with the stuff that caused paranoia among British Railways officials. That Monday morning it was building up in crunchy wedges under the heels of shoes and falling in dry white pyramids along the front hall of the Charlotte Street office where I worked. I said 'Good morning' to Alice, and she said 'Don't tread it in' to me, which summed up our relationship nicely. The Charlotte Street building was an ancient creaking slum. The wallpaper had great boils full of loose plaster and there were small metal patches in the floor where the boards were too rotten to repair. On the first-floor landing was a painted sign that said 'Acme Films. Cutting Rooms', and under that a drawing of a globe that made Africa too thin. From behind the doors came the noise of a moviola and a strong smell of film cement. The next landing was painted with fresh green paint. On one door a dog-eared piece of headed notepaper said 'B Isaacs Theatrical Tailor', which at one time I had considered very funny. Behind me I heard Alice puffing up the stairs with a catering-size tin of Nescafe. Someone in the dispatch department put a brass-band record on the gramophone. Dawlish, my boss, was always complaining about that gramophone, but even Alice couldn't really control the dispatch department. My secretary said, 'Good morning.' Jean was a tall girl in her middle twenties. Her face was as calm as Nembutal anil with her high cheekbones and tightly drawn back hair she was beautiful without working at it. There were times when I thought that I was in love with Jean and there were times when I thought that she was in love with me, but somehow these times never coincided. 'Good party?' I asked. 'You seemed to enjoy it. When I left you were drinking a pint of bitter while standing on your head!.' 'You do exaggerate. Why did you go home alone?' 'I have two hungry cats to support. Two thirty is definitely my bedtime.' 'I'm sorry,' I said. 'Don't be.' 'Truly.' 'Going with you to a party is to be there alone. You plant me down, go around chatting with everyone, then wonder why I haven't met them all.' 'Tonight', I said, 'we'll go to some quiet place for dinner. Just us.' 'I'm taking no chances. Tonight I'm cooking a birthday feast at the flat. I'll give you all your favourite things.' 'You will?' 'To eat.' 'I'll be there,' I said. 'You'd better be.' She gave me a perfunctory kiss - 'Happy birthday' - and leaned across and put a glass of water and two Alka Seltzer tablets on my blotter. 'Why not put the tablets into the water?' I asked. 'I wasn't sure if you could bear the noise.' She unlocked my trays and began to work steadily through the great pile of paper- work. By midday we hadn't made much impression upon it. I said, 'We aren't even keeping up with the incoming.' 'We can start a "pending" tray.' 'Don't be so female,' I said. 'All that does is call some of it another name. Why can't you go through it and handle some of it without me?' 'I already did.' 'Then sort out the "information onlys", mark them for return to us and pass them on. That would give us a breathing space.' 'Now who's kidding himself?' 'Can you think of something better?" 'Yes. I think we should get a written directive from Organisation to be sure we're handling only files that we should handle. There may be things in this tray that are nothing to do with us.' 'There are times, my love, when I think none of it is anything to do with us.' Jean stared at me in an expressionless way that might have indicated disapproval. Maybe she was thinking about her hair. 'Birthday lunch at the Trat,' I said. 'But I look awful.' 'Yes,' I said. 'I must do my hair. Give me five minutes." 'I'll give you six,' I said. She had been thinking about her hair. We lunched at the Trattoria Terrazza: Tagliatelle alia carbonara, Osso buco, coffee. Pol Roger throughout. Mario complimented me on having a birthday and kissed Jean to celebrate it. He snapped his fingers and up came Strega. I snapped my fingers and up came more Pol Roger. We sat there, drinking champagne with Strega chasers, talking, snapping fingers and discovering ultimate truth and our own infinite wisdom. We got back to the office at three forty-five and I realised for the first time how dangerous that loose lino on the stairs can be. As I entered my office the intercom was buzzing like a trapped bluebottle. 'Yes,' I said. 'Right away,' said Dawlish, my boss. 'Right away, sir,' I said, slowly and carefully. Dawlish had the only room in the building with two windows. It was a comfortable room, although overcrowded with pieces of not very valuable antique furniture. There was a smell of wet overcoats. Dawlish was a meticulous man who looked like an Edwardian coroner. His hair was grey moving towards white and his hands long and thin. When he read he moved his fingertips across the page as though getting a finer understanding from the sense of touch. He looked up from his desk. 'Was that you falling down the stairs?' 'I stumbled,' I said. 'It's the snow on my shoes.' 'Of course it is, my boy,' said Dawlish. We both stared out of the window; the snow was falling faster, and great white snakes of it were wriggling along the gutter, for it was still dry enough to be lifted by the wind. 'I'm just sending another 378 file to the P. M. I hate this clearance business. It's so easy to slip up.' That's true,' I said, and was pleased that I didn't have to sign that file. 'What do you think?' asked Dawlish. 'Do you think thai that boy is a security risk?' The 378 file was a periodic review of the loyalty of S. ls -important chemists, engineers etc. - but I knew that Dawlish just wanted to think aloud, so I grunted. 'You know the one I'm worried about. You know him.' 'I've never handled his file,' and as long as choice was concerned I'd make damned certain I didn't. I knew that Dawlish had another nasty little bomb called the 378 file sub- section 14, which was a file about trade union officials. At the slightest show of intelligent interest I would find that file on my desk. 'Personally: what do you feel about him personally?' asked Dawlish. 'Brilliant young student. Socialist. Pleased with himself for getting an honours degree. Wakes up one morning with a suede waistcoat, two kids, job in advertising and a ten-thousand-quid mortgage in Hampstead, Sends for a subscription to the Daily Worker just so that he can read the Statesman with a clear conscience. Harmless.' I hoped that reply carried the right blend of inefficient glibness. 'Very good,' said Dawlish, turning the pages of the file. 'We should give you a job here.' 'I'd never get on with the boss.' Dawlish initialled a chit at the front of the file and tossed it into the out tray. 'We have another problem,' he said, 'thai won't be solved as easily as that." Dawlish reached for a slim file, opened it and read a name.

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

  • Ken Russell – 2001
    KEN RUSSELL Nato il 3 luglio 1927 a Southampton, Hampshire, in Gran Bretagna, Ken Russell è davvero il ‘ragazzaccio’ del cinema inglese; i suoi fallimenti sono spesso più interessanti dei successi della maggior parte dei registi. La sua propensione per il bizzarro e l’eccessivo si è rivelata ben presto nella sua carriera, con la sua serie di biografie per la BBC su Debussy e Isadora Duncan. Russell ha esordito come regista cinematografico nel 1963 con French Dressing e successivamente ha diretto lo spy thriller Il cervello da un miliardo di dollari (1967, forse il suo film più convenzionale). Il suo terzo film, nel 1969, stato un adattamento sessualmente vivido ma (per i suoi canoni) abbastanza freddo di‘Women in love di D. H. Lawrence, che gli è valso una nomination agli Oscar e il plauso internazionale. E che gli ha anche dato la libertà di sbizzarrirsi con alcune singolari pseudobiografie come L’altra faccia dell’amore (1971), Messia selvaggio (1972), La perdizione (1974), Lisztomania (1975) e Valentino (1977), e di mostrare una strana sorta di versatilità nel 1971, passando dallo ‘scandaloso’I Diavoli a Il boy friend un omaggio ai musical degli anni ‘30. Nel 1975 si è dedicato all’opera rock degli Who Tommy dando al progetto il suo tocco personale: bisogna vedere una scena con Ann-Margaret per crederci. Ha avuto un forte successo commerciale in America con Stati di Allucinazione nel 1980, dopo il quale è tornato ai budget ridotti e ai suoi progetti personali con certi titoli brillanti come China Blue (1984), Gothic (1986), L’ultima Salomè e la commedia horror cult La tana del serpente bianco (entrambi del 1988).

  • An Assessment of the Development of Target Marking Techniques to the Prosecution of the Bombing Offensive During the Second World War
    Circumventing the law that humans cannot see in the dark: an assessment of the development of target marking techniques to the prosecution of the bombing offensive during the Second World War Submitted by Paul George Freer to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in August 2017 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: Paul Freer 1 ABSTRACT Royal Air Force Bomber Command entered the Second World War committed to a strategy of precision bombing in daylight. The theory that bomber formations would survive contact with the enemy was soon dispelled and it was obvious that Bomber Command would have to switch to bombing at night. The difficulties of locating a target at night soon became apparent. In August 1941, only one in three of those crews claiming to have bombed a target had in fact had been within five miles of it. And yet, less than four years later, it would be a very different story. By early 1945, 95% of aircraft despatched bombed within 3 miles of the Aiming Point and the average bombing error was 600 yards. How, then, in the space of four years did Bomber Command evolve from an ineffective force failing even to locate a target to the formidable force of early 1945? In part, the answer lies in the advent of electronic navigation aids that, in 1941, were simply not available.

  • The Economic Cost of Strategic Bombing
    BRITAIN 1939 – 1945: THE ECONOMIC COST OF STRATEGIC BOMBING By John Fahey UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY ABSTRACT BRITAIN 1939-1945: THE ECONOMIC COST OF STRATEGIC BOMBING By John Fahey Supervisor: Dr. Judith Keene Department of History The strategic air offensive against Germany during World War II formed a major part of Britain’s wartime military effort and it has subsequently attracted the attention of historians. Despite the attention, historians have paid little attention to the impact of the strategic air offensive on Britain. This thesis attempts to redress this situation by providing an examination of the economic impact on Britain of the offensive. The work puts the economic cost of the offensive into its historical context by describing the strategic air offensive and its intellectual underpinnings. Following this preliminary step, the economic costs are described and quantified across a range of activities using accrual accounting methods. The areas of activity examined include the expansion of the aircraft industry, the cost of individual aircraft types, the cost of constructing airfields, the manufacture and delivery of armaments, petrol and oil, and the recruitment, training and maintenance of the necessary manpower. The findings are that the strategic air offensive cost Britain £2.78 billion, equating to an average cost of £2,911.00 for every operational sortie flown by Bomber Command or £5,914.00 for every Germany civilian killed by aerial bombing. The conclusion reached is the damage inflicted upon Germany by the strategic air offensive imposed a very heavy financial burden on Britain that she could not afford and this burden was a major contributor to Britain’s post-war impoverishment.
