<div class="article__summary summary ">
After 17 years, Nokia has finally resurrected its almost 
“indestructible” 3310 with a few added bonuses that are sure to win over
 fans both old and new alike.

</div>
<i>“For
 the Nokia 3310, we just couldn’t resist. We wanted to reward loyal 
Nokia phone fans and make a statement that rich heritage, innovation and
 modern design can go hand-in-hand,”</i> Juho Sarvika, chief product 
officer of HMD Global, told the Mobile World Congress conference in 
Barcelona, according to The Telegraph.<br />

The reinvented classic was unveiled in Barcelona alongside some of Nokia’s more up-to-date options, the Nokia 3, 5 and 6.</div>

be extremely popular among those looking to disconnect from the world, 
at least partially.<br />

<br />
So what exactly are trimaran ships? The major distinction is they 
three hulls: one large, central one and two rearward smaller hulls 
connected by decks or girders. The design is used in the U.S. Navy's new
 USS Independence subclass of the Littorial Combat Ship, and in fact the
 new Chinese ship looks very similar to that class.<br />
The design means the ships have the advantage of a wider deck to 
operate more aircraft; this frigate design has a two-door hangar for 
helicopters and vertical take-off landing (VTOL) unmanned aircraft 
systems (UAS). Trimarans can also reach higher speeds, due to the 
reduced drag of having three hulls instead of a single wider one.<br />

The
 Chinese trimaran frigate will be about 465 feet long, and has a beam of
 105 feet and a weight of 2,450 tons. Interestingly, it may be the first
 Chinese warship to use an integrated electrical propulsion system 
(IEPS) to provide the power for driving its three pumpjets. It is 
unclear if the announced 2,450-ton displacement is full or light.<br />

If
 we're comparing the vessel to the USS Independence subclass of the 
Littorial Combat Ship, the latter is designed as a high-speed platform, 
with a top speed estimated at 50 knots, which is faster than the Chinese
 trimaran frigate's announced 30-35-knot top speed. The Chinese trimaran
 frigate is far more heavily armed for conventional warfare; the 
American ship mounts only a 57mm cannon plus provisions for anti-ship 
missiles while the Chinese ship boasts the capacity for a 76mm cannon, 
anti-ship missiles, and vertical-launching system cells for carrying 
anti-ship, land attack cruise and anti-air missiles.<br />

<br />
That being said, the USS Independence offers the flexibility of 
changing out mission modules (such as between anti-submarine and mine 
countermeasure missions). This flexibility may be overstated, however, 
as both trimaran designs have wide decks for intensive helicopter 
operations, and the Chinese version also appears to have ample cargo 
spaces to embark maritime special forces and unmanned surface and 
underwater systems.<br />

Often seen in parts of southern Argentina and Chile, the numerous small 
inlets of Punta Tombo in Argentina’s southeast region make a perfect 
breeding ground for the Magellanic penguins due to the large quantities 
of sardines and anchovies found close to shore.<br />
<br />

<br />
Measuring about 45cm (17in) tall and weighing around 4kg (9lbs), the 
magellanic penguin sports a large white crescent of feathers on their 
breast, and have distinctive pink coloring on their faces. <br />
<br />
Tens of thousands of tourists flock to the peninsula each year to catch a
 glimpse of the flightless birds but this year is extra special as 
locals say more than one million of the birds have arrived - a record 
number - <a href="https://apnews.com/7cfa9595ddc6419b9b5f71d449106755/Abundant-fish-draw-1-million-penguins-to-Argentine-peninsula">according to AP</a>. <br />

While not yet an endangered species, a number of Magellanic penguins die
 annually when they become tangled in the nets of commercial fisheries. 
Its population has been particularly impacted by oil spills in the past,
 with some 40,000 Magellanic penguins killed each year until the 
mid-1990s, <a href="https://argentina.wcs.org/wildlife/penguins.aspx">according</a> to Argentina’s Wildlife Conservation Society. This has improved over the last 20 years, however, with <em>“less than one or two thousand oiled each year.”  </em><br />

In an operation code-named Grill Flame, half a dozen psychics on more 
than 200 occasions tried to peer through the ether to see where the 
hostages were being held, how closely they were guarded and the state of
 their health<br />

The dozens of American diplomats taken hostage
 by revolutionary students who seized the US embassy in Iran in 1979 may
 have had some secret company during their 15-month captivity: US 
intelligence agencies had a squad of military-trained psychics using ESP
 to watch them, according to declassified documents in a newly available
 CIA database.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
In an operation code-named Grill Flame, half a 
dozen psychics working inside a dimly lit room in an ancient building in
 Fort Meade, on more than 200 occasions tried to peer through the ether 
to see where the hostages were being held, how closely they were guarded
 and the state of their health.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Officially, the psychics worked for US Army 
intelligence. But the documents in the CIA database make it clear their 
efforts were monitored – and supported – by a wide array of government 
intelligence agencies as well as top commanders at the Pentagon.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
They were even consulted before the super-secret
 US military raid that attempted to free the hostages in April 1980, 
which ended in disaster when a plane and a helicopter collided at a 
desert staging area.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
In a memo written on April 23, 1980, one day 
before the launch of the rescue mission, one of the chiefs of the 
psychic unit told a superior officer that a representative of the Joint 
Chiefs of Staff had contacted the unit and “requested we intensify our 
efforts and that we attempt to set to up a situation wherein the 
possibilities for aborting the mission would be sharply reduced”.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
<br /></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="blockquote-quote v2-processed">
The psychics were able to 
tell, in some cases, where the hostages were moved to. They were able to

</blockquote>
<div class="blockquote-author v2-processed">
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Whether the psychics provided any useful 
intelligence was the subject of a debate among intelligence officials as
 heated as it was secret. After the hostages were released in January 
1981 and extensively questioned about the details of their experience, 
the Pentagon compared the information with 202 reports from the Grill 
Flame psychics. “Only seven reports” were proven correct, wrote an Air 
Force colonel on the staff of the Joint Chiefs, underlining the number 
for emphasis.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
More than half, he added, were “entirely 
incorrect”. And although 59 contained information that was partly or 
possibly right, the colonel noted that “these same reports often 
included erroneous data”.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Army officers supervising Grill Flame hotly 
contested the Air Force colonel’s evaluation, claiming 45 per cent of 
the psychic reports contained some accurate information. And, they 
argued, “that was information that could not be obtained through normal 
intelligence collection channels. The degree of success appears to at 
least equal, if not surpass, other collection methods”.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The debate continues today. “The stuff that the 
CIA has declassified is garbage,” one of the Grill Flame psychics, 
Joseph McMoneagle, told the <i>Miami Herald</i>. “They haven’t 
declassified any of the stuff that worked.” Agreed Edwin May, a 
physicist who oversaw parapsychology research for government 
intelligence agencies for 20 years: “The psychics were able to tell, in 
some cases, where the hostages were moved to. They were able to see the 
degree of their health. ... If you can sit in Fort Meade and describe 
the health of hostages who are going to be released, so that the right 
doctors can be on hand, that’s very helpful.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Others are more sceptical, to put it mildly. 
“The intelligence agencies might as well get a crystal ball out and 
stare into space and hope they see something,” said James Randi, a 
former professional magician who turned his career into debunking ESP 
and psychics. “It’s a huge waste of time and money and it doesn’t help 
the hostages one bit.”</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Randi’s sceptical perspective was shared by many
 inside the intelligence community. William J. Daugherty, a CIA case 
officer working in Iran who was captured when the embassy was seized by 
the radical students, told the <i>Herald</i> he learned of the psychic probing from colleagues after his release.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“It was at lunch, and they were laughing,” Daugherty said. “It was in the nature of, ‘Can you believe the crazy stuff we did?’”</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Operation Grill Flame was just one part of a 
broader US intelligence project involving psychics and ESP that 
continued for 20 years. It went through as many as 10 different code 
names as its management shifted from agency to agency – though it was 
mostly supervised by Army intelligence and the Defence Intelligence 
Agency – and carried out 26,000 telepathic forays by 227 psychics before
 the government shut it down in 1995.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Scores of documents in the CIA database trace 
its history and its involvement in everything from searches for missing 
aircraft to tracking shipments of illegal drugs. Established in 1975 
after a series of more fleeting encounters between the intelligence 
community and the parapsychological world, the programme was originally 
more of a research project than a spy mission, one of the odder parts of
 the perpetual arms race of the cold war.</div>

<div class="v2-processed">
“Mostly at the beginning, we were doing foreign 
assessment – that is, what the other side was doing,” said May, who 
joined the programme nearly at its inception. “We’d get a report that 
China or Russia was experimenting with psychics who claimed to be able 
to do this or that, and our job was to judge whether this was possibly 
true and if so, what threat was it to us.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The programme also began working directly with 
psychics. At first it sought out people who publicly claimed 
extrasensory powers, but then began searching within the ranks of 
military intelligence officers who shared personality qualities with 
what it called “established psychics,” especially those with a talent 
for “remote viewing” – the mental ability to see across vast distances 
and through walls and other obstructions.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“Successful remote viewers tend to be confident,
 outgoing, adventurous, broadly successful individuals with some 
artistic bent,” said an Army colonel who managed Grill Flame said in a 
briefing on the program’s history that was widely delivered to top 
echelons of the Pentagon and civilian intelligence agencies in 1982 and 
1983. (A transcript is among the documents on the CIA database.)<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
From hundreds of candidates, project managers 
selected six for psychic training. And in the fall of 1979, Grill Flame 
abruptly went from theory to practice when the six were put to work 
looking for a missing US Navy plane.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
On September 4, 1979, the psychics were able to 
pinpoint the location of the missing plane to within 15 miles. Other 
details of the search for the plane are blacked out in CIA documents, 
but Jimmy Carter, who was president at the time, may have been alluding 
to it in an interview he gave 12 years ago.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">

“We had a plane go down in the Central African 
Republic – a twin-engine plane, small plane. And we couldn’t find it,” 
even with satellite photography, Carter said. “So the director of the 
CIA came and told me that he had contacted a woman in California that 
claimed to have supernatural capabilities. And she went in a trance, and
 she wrote down latitudes and longitudes, and we sent our satellite over
 that latitude and longitude, and there was the plane.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
That seemed to validate the ESP approach to 
intelligence, at least to some officials, and the psychics were put to 
work at other tasks – though Grill Flame overseers fretted that if news 
leaked out that the American government was using psychic spies, the 
programme would be buried in ridicule. They were particularly worried 
about William Proxmire, the Democratic senator from Wisconsin, who each 
month issued a sarcastic (and highly publicised) Golden Fleece Award to 
government programme he regarded as boondoggles.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
But fears of renegade politicians were swept 
away when the students burst into the embassy in Tehran a week later and
 took more than 60 diplomats hostage. As American intelligence hit a 
stone wall in its efforts to find out exactly what was happening inside 
the embassy – the hostages included all the CIA officers in Iran – the 
military turned in frustration to the psychics.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
On November 21, the Joint Chiefs task force on 
the hostage crisis asked Grill Flame managers for help. Two days later, 
after looking at pictures of the hostages in <i>Time</i> magazine, two
 psychics went to work on a mental search of the embassy. Twelve more 
attempts would be made over the next three weeks.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The viewing sessions, as they were called, took 
place in a soundproof, windowless room in an old building in Fort Meade,
 about 30 miles northwest of Washington, the home of a number of 
intelligence agencies. “Everything inside the room was grey, very 
nondescript,” said McMoneagle, one of the six Grill Flame psychics.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Each session included only two people, a psychic
 and an intelligence officer, known as an interviewer. The interviewer 
gave the psychic a target: typically a photo of a person or place, a 
map, or a set of geographic coordinates. In the early days, the target 
information was usually placed in a sealed envelope so the psychic had 
no visible clue what he was looking for beyond what came into his mind. 
But as the hostage crisis dragged on, that rule was often disregarded.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Most sessions lasted around 30 minutes. They were tape-recorded, and sometimes the psychics sketched things they had seen.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“You have to open your mind to anything at all,”
 said McMoneagle, who except for a fairly typical near-death experience a
 decade earlier during a bout of food poisoning (“you know, a tunnel, a 
voice saying ‘move toward the light,’ you’ve heard it a thousand times”)
 had never had a psychic episode before his military training. “And then
 you describe it.”</div>

<div class="v2-processed">
A transcript of a viewing session on December 
29, 1979, at least from a procedural perspective, shows the typical 
interplay between psychic and interviewer.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The psychic was shown a picture of one of the 
hostages: Tom Ahern, the embassy’s CIA station chief. “I want you to 
hold that image of that individual in your mind while you visualide the 
area where he is located,” said the interviewer. “Locate this individual
 and describe what he is doing. Describe his locations and his 
surroundings. Relax and concentrate, relax and concentrate.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“I seemed to be in the midst of an explosion of 
activity,” replied the psychic. “[There] appeared to be a lot of people 
dressed in, of all things, flowing robe ... [I] distinctly had the 
impression of a lot of white robes or smocks of people.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Those people, he added, were running “helter-skelter all over the place”.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“As if there were a crowd of people suddenly 
somebody started shooting into the crowd,” he continued. “Some appeared 
to be falling and others just appeared to be scattering everywhere. 
Funny thing is, I didn’t hear any gun shots, or anything. ... Maybe it 
was tear gas or something.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
From there the psychic’s vision abruptly flashed
 to a jail cell, looking out onto a courtyard, and finally to man in a 
light brown suit lying on a red oriental carpet (”that didn’t make any 
sense at all”). The psychic finished by making some crude sketches of 
the disturbance, the cell and the floor plan of the cellblock.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“Either that’s the one of the worst sessions I’ve ever had or one of the best,” the psychic ruefully concluded.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The session was typical in at least one other 
way: It was mostly dead wrong. Aside from the day the embassy was 
actually seized, there was never a disturbance or a gunfight inside the 
compound in the entire time the hostages were held there.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“I never saw or heard anything like that during 
the time we were hostages,” said former captive Daugherty. “I never once
 smelled tear gas. Very occasionally you would hear a gunshot, because 
the guards were mostly kids with no experience with firearms, and they’d
 forget to put the safety of their gun on, and then they’d drop it and 
it would go off. But it was always a single shot, never a prolonged 
burst.”<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Even the description of flowing white robes 
seems quite unlikely to him. By Christmas of 1979, the students who took
 over the embassy were mostly alienated from the Muslim clergymen who 
were originally their allies.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“You never saw the clergymen anymore by that 
time, and the students were just young guys in jeans and sweaters, 
western clothing,” said Daugherty.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
<br /></div>

<div class="v2-processed">
<br /></div>
<div class="v2-processed">
The psychics’ work after the failed rescue 
mission was, if anything, even less accurate. Their student captors, 
realising that keeping all the hostages inside the embassy grounds had 
been practically an invitation for an American military raid, began 
scattering them literally all over the country. The psychics were 
assigned to hunt them down. But many of their reports were wrong, 
sometimes by hundreds of miles.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
On May 2, 1980, a psychic confidently declared 
that Lieutenant Colonel David Roeder, the embassy’s Air Force attache, 
was being held in a “very expensive” yellow stone house – “a really 
private, really expensive home” – just six or seven blocks away from the
 embassy. And “he is definitely with (CIA station chief) Ahern”, the 
psychic added. He drew several detailed pictures of the home and 
grounds.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Actually, Roeder was being detained in an 
abandoned art school in the city of Qom, several hundred miles away. And
 Ahern was locked up in a Tehran prison. Similarly, Bob Ode (a retired 
foreign service officer who had the bad luck to be on a temporary job in
 the consulate when the embassy was seized) was not in a multistory, 
castlelike building outside the embassy, as a psychic reported on June 
3. Ode was one of a few hostages who never left the embassy.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Such mistakes don’t bother the psychics or their
 supporters. They argue that no method of collecting intelligence is 
anything close to fool-proof, and nobody should expect psychic spying to
 be any better.</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
“The psychics were just as good as other human 
intelligence sources,” said May, the physicist who worked with Grill 
Flame. “And, unfortunately, they were just as bad. Human beings are 
notoriously horrible at the second world war-type spying, standing out 
there with binoculars, counting tanks. There are all kinds of biases 
that can creep in.”</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Grill Flame, under different code names, 
continued for another 14 years after the Iranian hostage crisis ended. 
But in 1995, after an outside review commissioned by the CIA concluded 
that “remote viewing reports failed to produce the concrete, specific 
information valued in intelligence reporting,” the program was shut down
 and has never resumed. Its epitaph, at least according to its critics, 
had been written eight years earlier, when The Washington Post got a 
vague whiff of intelligence money going to parapsychological projects.<br />
</div>
<div class="v2-processed">
Stansfield Turner, then the CIA’s director, told
 a reporter that the CIA had once worked with a man who claimed the 
capability of remote viewing. But the man had died two years earlier, 
Turner said with a straight face, “and we haven’t heard from him since.”<br />

The
 Finnish company has since been surpassed by numerous competitors as 
phone technology took giant leaps. Microsoft bought Nokia's mobile 
division for nearly $7.2 billion in 2013. However, less than two years 
later, they wrote off billions of dollars and resold the brand to a 
newly formed Finnish company HMD Global Oy for $350 million.<br />
 The 
3310, which was a successor to the popular 3210, was famed for its 
incredible battery life, easy to use design and fantastic durability.<br />

HMD is controlled by a group of former Nokia employees. When they took over the brand it was reported that their plan was to revive familiar "feature" phones whilst also moving on to Android-based smartphones and tablets. Now <a href="http://venturebeat.com/2017/02/13/hmd-global-will-launch-the-nokia-3-5-and-6-at-mwc-plus-a-3310-homage/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">according</a> to
 a VentureBeat source familiar with the company’s plans, the first of 
these familiar oldies is the 3310 and it looks set to be revealed at 
Mobile World Congress exhibition in Barcelona later this month. 
VentureBeat says the device will go on sale for €59 ($62.40).<br /><b><br /></b><img alt="credit: Jussi Kemppainen" class="size-full wp-image-2175499" height="487" src="http://1u88jj3r4db2x4txp44yqfj1.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/3.jpg" width="640" /><br /><b><br /></b>
The
 company will also reportedly unveil two new Android powered 
smartphones, the Nokia 3 and Nokia 5. They have already revealed the 
Nokia 6 but it has only been released in China. HMD are teaming up with 
Foxconn, the Chinese manufacturer who are best known for producing the 
Apple iPhone, to build the new devices.<br />
In 2007 Nokia was 
generating approximately 50 percent of all profits in the cellphone 
industry. The company’s workforce in Finland currently stands at less 
than 1,000 down from more than 24,000 in its heyday.</div>
