newbee needs help with some codes

Hi,

The following snippet is from Joomla:

$mainframe =& JFactory::getApplication('site');

What do =& and :: mean?

I know this is php using OO, but why can't it be used the following way?

$mainframe = JFactory->getApplication('site');

TIA

@set_magic_quotes_runtime( 0 );
@ini_set('zend.ze1_compatibility_mode', '0');

The PHP manual I found online does not use @

TIA
