I may be wrong, but i believe you do not need the & before the function name. As PHP since PHP 5 does class/function referencing by default, and seen as though this is PHP 5 OOP, its not needed.

Disclaimer: I've never really understood this ampersand crap in the past, so don't quote me on anything! :D But I'm 90% sure its just for making a reference when refering to a variable/class/function instead of cloning it.
