aimed at criminals
people in the tibetan capital of lhasa will have to register their names if they want to make photocopies. city shopkeepers say the authorities are particularly concerned about material printed in tibetan. this appears to be an attempt to prevent ordinary people from printing political pamphlets and other documents. individuals wanting to photocopy documents will have to show their id cards and have the information recorded. companies will have to register their names and addresses, the number of copies they want and provide the name of the manager in charge of the work. the police say they will carry out checks and punish any shop that does not abide by the new regulation. photocopying outlets in lhasa told the bbc that the rule is primarily aimed at the tibetan language. one shopkeeper said she would not now make copies of documents in tibetan without police approval first.

the rolling stones at villa nellcôte
keith richards, anita pallenberg and gram parsons in grand flophouse mode at the 16-bedroom villa, where they recorded exile on main st. in 1971 by dominique tarlé.
jagger and richards. 'there was a friction at that time,' says marshall chess, who ran the stones's own record label. 'mick didn't like exile; it was being made in keith's domain. and then there was the drug issue'.
the rolling stones, pallenberg, parsons and kids lunch at the south of france villa, where they spent six months in 1971 avoiding the english taxman.
mick jagger gets some headspace outside the villa on the côte d'zzur. 'people appeared, disappeared, no one had a last name, you didn't know who anybody was,' remembers robert greenfield.
richards and parsons. 'keith and gram were two peas in a pod,' says gretchen carpenter, then married to parsons. 'they were best friends, exploring music. They were instantaneous friends, and instantaneous troublemakers.
richards and pallenberg, who had rented the villa with their son marlon, shortly after anita had come out of rehab.
photographs of the rolling stones at villa nellcôte (where they recorded exile on main st.) by dominique tarlé will be on display at the atlas gallery, in association with raj prem fine art photography from 15 july to 31 august 2010 in london.
