10 Downing Street ~ official residence of the First Lord of Treasury !!
Number 10 Downing Street has never been busier than it is today. It is an office for the Prime Minister, a meeting place for the Cabinet, a venue for state events and a home for the Prime Minister's family.
The United Kingdom general election of 2015 was held on 7th May 2015 to elect the 56th Parliament of the United Kingdom. Voting took place in all 650 parliamentary constituencies of the United Kingdom, each electing one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons, the dominant house of Parliament. Despite most opinion polls predicting the Conservatives and Labour neck and neck, the Conservatives secured a clear lead over their rivals and took a working majority of 12 (in practice increased to 15 due to Sinn Féin's 4 MPs' abstention). Conservative party leader and incumbent Prime Minister David Cameron subsequently formed a majority single-party government, while their former Liberal Democrat coalition partners suffered their worst defeat since the 1970 general election.
Samantha Cameron caused a stir when she cruised into the back of Number 10 on a trendy £160 white micro scooter. As the Prime Minister was busy organising his cabinet reshuffle inside Downing Street, media reported of Samantha Cameron following her husband's example of making a swift return to Downing Street - on her very own micro-scooter, to the surprise of heavily armed policeman.
As we know - 7, Race Course Road (Panchavati / 7, RCR) is the official residence and principal workplace of the Prime Minister of India, where he lives and holds most of his official or political meetings. It is spread over 12 acres, comprising five bungalows in Lutyens' Delhi, built in the 1980s, which are PM office-cum-residence zone and security establishment, including one occupied by Special Protection Group(SPG) and another being a guest house, though all are collectively called 7, Race Course Road. Mr. Rajiv Gandhi was the first PM to stay at 7 Race Course Road in 1984. The PMO is located in the South Block of Secretariat Building, on Raisina Hill.
10 Downing Street - is the headquarters of the Executive Arm of the British Government and the official residence and office of the First Lord of the Treasury, a post which, for much of the 18th and 19th centuries and ever since 1905, is also held by the Prime Minister.
Situated in Downing Street in the City of Westminster, London, Number 10 is over three hundred years old and contains approximately one hundred rooms. There is a private residence on the third floor and a kitchen in the basement. Adjacent to St. James's Park, Number 10 is near to Buckingham Palace, the official London residence of the British monarch, and the Palace of Westminster, the meeting place of both houses of parliament.
Originally three houses, Number 10 was offered to Sir Robert Walpole by George II in 1732. The arrangement was not an immediate success. Despite its size and convenient location near to Parliament, few early Prime Ministers lived there. Costly to maintain, neglected, and run-down, Number 10 was close to being razed several times. Nevertheless, the property survived and became linked with many statesmen and events in British history. In 1985 Margaret Thatcher said Number 10 had become "one of the most precious jewels in the national heritage."
The area around Downing Street was home to ancient Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Norman settlements, and was already a prestigious centre of government 1000 years ago. However, the name is related to - Sir George Downing, a property developer - who saw building houses on prime London land as a means to get rich quick. Downing was one of the earliest graduates of Harvard University. He came back to England during the Civil War, and by 1650 he was Cromwell's Scoutmaster General or intelligence chief. In 1654 Downing acquired the Crown interest in the land, but he could not take possession as it was under lease to Knyvet's descendents. It was not until 1682, nearly 30 years later, that Downing finally secured the leases to the property.
He quickly set about the project, pulling down existing properties. In their place sprang up a cul-de-sac of 15 or 20 terraced houses along the northern side of Downing Street.
Designed for a quick turnover, Downing's houses were cheaply built, with poor foundations for the boggy ground. Instead of neat brick façades, they had mortar lines drawn on to look like even-spaced bricks. In the 1730s Number 10 began to be linked to the office of prime minister. When Benjamin Disraeli went to live at Number 10 in 1877, the house was in poor shape. The living quarters had not been used for 30 years. Disraeli persuaded the state to pay for renovation to the entrance halls and public rooms, though he paid himself for the private rooms to be refurbished. When Gladstone moved into the house for the first time in 1880, he insisted on redecorating after Disraeli's occupancy, spending £1,555.5s.0d., an enormous sum for the time, on furniture.
There is some more history that the earliest building known to have stood on the site of Downing Street was the Axe brewery owned by the Abbey of Abingdon in the Middle Ages. By the early 1500s, it had fallen into disuse.

It was only a matter of time. A 10-year-old girl was categorized as "fat" by her Wii Fit, and now the National Obesity Forum is calling for the game to be banned from being played by children. Apparently her Body Mass Index (a questionable way of determining one's fitness level) was determined to be too high despite claims from her father that she's an active and healthy child.
Nintendo has apologized but will not place a warning on the game.


People like Terri Wentz who volunteers countless hours through several organizations, the Fidler and Finnegan families who continue to give back to our community, and churches and other nonprofits keep offering great resources. These are just a few examples of a very long list. I am proud to be mayor of a community that works so closely together.
In light of the negativity we continue to see coming from the national scene, I am proclaiming 2017 the "Year of Goodness" in Goshen. I will be working hard to recognize individuals, businesses and nonprofits for anything they do to better our community. This can be donating time or money or simply helping someone who needs it. I have challenged our local media sources to have a positive story on the front page or in the first few minutes of their broadcast every day.
To kick off the Year of Goodness, I will be giving each school in Goshen a check the students can use to create acts of kindness (no tax dollars are going to this program).
I want Goshen to be a place for prosperity, a place my children want to live when they are older, a place that is inclusive and safe, a place of cooperation and a place where we can respectfully disagree. I want Goshen to be a place we are all proud of and others are envious of.
I would like to encourage everyone to get involved. Whether you volunteer on a board, contact an elected official, thank a city employee or help out a neighbor, please get involved.
If you would like to support or participate in the Year of Goodness, please contact my office, 533.9332.
During the Year of Goodness, (March 2017–March 2018) Mayor Jeremy Stutsman will recognize the individuals, businesses and nonprofits that work for our community.

1st XV Progress into Semi-Finals
Warwick 1 XV progress through to the semi-finals of the National Schools Cup competition and are set to play Woodhouse Grove at Allianz Park, home of Saracens, on Saturday 9 March, 2019.
Warwick 1 XV progressed through to the semi-final of the Schools Cup for the third successive season after defeating Rugby School 29-20 last week.
Warwick started the quickest and took advantage of the wet and windy conditions. A mistake by the Rugby backline allowed Warwick winger Jamie MacKinlay to go the length of the pitch whilst kicking the ball along the floor to score a great try. Rugby hit back to get to 7-5 to Warwick, but then the Warwick forwards, led by Captain Will Kelley started to make inroads in the Rugby territory. They scored two tries from lineout mauls through second row Will Pugh and one from prop Alex Sabin to lead 26-5 at half-time.
The team knew that Rugby were going to hit back after half-time, however, Warwick gave them an interception try after two minutes into the second half, to cause the nerves to increase in the blue and white ranks. Rugby continued the pressure with two more tries to get to 26-20 with 10 minutes to go.
However, Warwick rallied with some brilliant cup rugby to get all the way under the posts and secure a penalty, duly kicked by the outstanding scrum-half Xander Eddy to finish the game off 29-20 to Warwick.
Considering the conditions, it was an excellent game of cup rugby. Warwick's 1st XV now progresses to the semi-finals of the Schools Cup and set to play Woodhouse Grove (Yorkshire) on Saturday 9 March, 2019. Congratulations to all involved.

In one sense, this book is a great inspiration that will provoke even a reader with modest ambitions in life to aim at greatness. In another sense, it is a guide to greatness that describes the tools that you need to succed in whatever you desire in life.
Above all, it is a resource book and a compass that will show you the path that almost all great men and women have followed to achieve greatness.


With discounts such as this, I see iPage consistently attracting new clients! At present, it's $1.99/mo to really have a fully-fledged hosting accounts at iPage which defeats every significant competitor on the industry.
I have a lot of my own web jobs running as well. Although with all the boundless hosting offers that I don't need new hosting I like to try new items every once in a while.
IPage is just one of the five web hosts I hold a account with. I have personally launched two or three sites utilizing iPage and found it not to be responsive and lightweight but also a powerhouse that permits unbelievable amounts of visitors and more innovative software. Long story short, I'm a long time customer of iPage.com, also I have summarized my findings in this particular review.
With more than ten years of experience in the specialty, incredibly fast servers, an incredible track record of innovation and customer support, it is pretty easy to see why iPage.com has quickly become a top 10 level player in the internet hosting world.
IPage belongs to the Endurance International family. That's the organization you will discover on BBB. Being licensed by BBB means the company will make steps to manage customer complaints professionally. It would be kind of an insurance policy for the customers. Nevertheless, I'd like to do my research before buying, and not having to fill out complaint forms. So you're at the perfect place here.
One final note on BBB. Folks generally go there once they have a problem with a provider. That is the reason you'd frequently see a negative evaluation.
It is always comforting to hear there is a 30 day money back guarantee. Some web hosts play with trickery and will not offer your money back in full. Not iPage. If you aren't satisfied for any reason, you can get your money back in total.
It is a good thing to understand that iPage buys enough Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) to cancel energy use by 200 percent. That's the equivalent of planting 244 acres of trees. This is the way RECs do the job. They're certificates demonstrating that even though you get your power from the grid, the part you use consists of renewable resources. Otherwise, there is no way to tell in which the electricity originally is coming from throughout the grid.
The client support staff was always quick to answer all queries, and if there was a slight hiccup with the service (entirely my own fault), their techs were available to give me the sort of step-by-step education that had me back up and better than ever.
In case you've ever dealt with a hosting service in your life, you likely know that Live Chat is sort of like a primary line support. They mend the simple stuff, alter settings and direct you in the perfect direction. Now, if there is a problem which needs an advanced set of skills, and they will make a service ticket into the second line support and leave you at that.
That is mission critical — with no solid reliability and uptimes you could give the coolest feature set at an excellent pace, but when folks can't get to your site as it's down all the time or the servers are crashing, you are likely to be at a large heap of trouble.
Support is cool, but what is even cooler isn't having to get hold support the very first location. That is why media uptime is monitored 24/7. If anything goes bad, support could respond immediately.
Totally free Shopsite! Award-winning ShopSite is one of the easiest-to-use shopping cart software for small to midsize businesses.
Secure your website using Sitelock — You are able to find and fix malware problems and maintain your site free of errors with Sitelock.
Pretty ordinary stuff here for most of the best website hosts, however it's nevertheless an extremely robust feature set. IPage.com delivers unlimited distance and MySQL databases (great information for people working with applications or CMS programs that need the ability to communicate with MySQL), as well as also the extensive features keep rolling with the capacity to host unlimited domains with unlimited bandwidth all from the exact identical account. For anyone who is looking to host more than a single website or managing a company that addresses hosting, this is excellent news that will save some dollars.
Here I will help you through the control panel items. Beneath the FTP management panel, then you can examine your FTP information, produce, edit and delete FTP users. It is possible to set the default directory location also. FileManager is only a simple little tool utilized to do the same stuff you can do via FTP, but without a customer. That's uploading and downloading files. You're able to create new documents from scratch and edit existing ones as you enjoy. The Free 1 GB Cloud Storage thing is only a free offer for all iPage customers for JustCloud. It is a ceremony by EIG (proprietor of iPage and also a lot of other companies). I believe they want to build something like DropBox. I didn't try it yet, as I have all my storage needs covered. I could give it a go and post a review in the future.
The Mojo Marketplace is what the 1-Click Installer is called at iPage. That's a simplification because Mojo has over that. It is a marketplace connected into this 1-Click Installer. There is a lot of spare things around, like themes, plugins, logos & graphics, and all kinds of add-ons. The installer is quite straightforward, but should you will want any help setting something up, Mojo also provides many services in this field. The one known as My Installs (SimpleScripts) is, in reality, exactly the identical matter as the Mojo market. It just shows you what is already installed on your accounts.
MySQL is a very simple method to tap into the power of Structured Query Language. Mojo satisfactorily handles creating databases once you use it to install your own scripts. But if you're a power user, it is possible to directly edit any field in the database.
I have not tried Shopsite since I enjoy open-source stuff better. There are numerous open-source alternatives with exactly the same set of features. What speaks for Shopsite is it's incorporated into iPage. Meaning that if you have any matter with your store, service is not there for you. The disadvantage? It's not free, and it locks you into a iPage contract. You cannot move your shop to some other host, not as quickly as with an open source solution.
Visitor Statistics is the old-style statistics all web hosts have. You can choose between Webalizer and AWStats. They are useful if you would like to see raw data. It is completely useless when you need insight into conversion funnels, bounce rates, and also the sort of statistics that assists a webmaster to build a much better site. For that, you can use Google Analytics or the open-source alternative Piwik.
It is possible to see the uptime chart below. For 30 days 100% is a wonderful score! The level they aim is 99.99 percent. I recall a downtime about two weeks ago. That lasted for one minute.
Let us look into the uptime in detail. In the time of writing this record, iPage had 100% uptime for the previous 24 hours, seven days and seven times also. It is a terrific score if you ask me. My WordPress installment loads quickly enough, as usual, zero problems within this field. That's just a snapshot though. Consistently among the best web hosts, iPage has developed quite the following in business and personal circles as a member of the proceed to web hosting companies.
Have you assessed the hosting costs lately? In my estimates, a hosting package goes anywhere from $2 to $50 a month normally. For a limited time, you are able to get your site up and running for a measly $1.99/month. That is a no brainer even when you're on an extremely tight budget.
I normally recommend my customers to decide on the most fundamental hosting plan they can find. My rationale behind that is that if it's a brand new job, after one year you may learn whether you ought to stick with the undertaking or drop it. If it proves to be a dead-end, at the least you did not lose money. If it is a success, you can choose whether you will need an update or not. I know this may seem harsh, but that is the truth. I had projects that proved to be failures, but some of them had good success. So it's always best to give your ideas a shot.
I discovered iPage to be up there with the best of them when it came to bandwidth and reliability — you need to be able to reasonably anticipate 99.99% uptime (even though they overlooked it directly when I'm writing this review).
Like the rest of the hosts occasionally hardware fails or there is an unforeseen issue that needs to be dealt with, however for the most part, iPage has a good uptime record and history. As I mentioned, iPage is one of the five hosting companies I have a very long term hosting accounts with.
I have mentioned SiteLock. Well, that's not all you need to be worried of. If you have an e-commerce site with client data, then you'll most likely appreciate 24 hours on-site defenses with closed-circuit television.

No Commercial Planes Crashed on 9-11
When a foreign power can commit an atrocity like 9-11 with the complicity
of America's Masonic colonial ruling class, you know that
the United States is not an empire.
Although I cannot vouch for the claims made here,
they are plausible and expose 9-11 as a bald-faced hoax.
Because they got away with 9-11,
these false flags have continued on a regular basis.
"NOT ONE single supposed passenger parked a car at any airport on 9-11 NOT ONE. Why? There was no commercial plane crashes on 9-11."
There were no commercial plane crashes on September 11, 2001
by Alexandra Bruce
(abridged by henrymakow.com)
Every one of the supposed 256 passengers on 9-11 paid for their tickets in cash on THE MORNING 0f 9-11! NOT ONE used a single credit card and there are no electronic receipts from anyone or any company anywhere in the world. Why? There was no commercial plane crashes on 9-11. This is the reason for:
HUNDRED's of so-called "terrorist training drills" like Tripod II and Vigilant Guardian were taking place on 9-11….at the exact time of the plane crashes…..
NONE of the voice data recorders, flight data recorders, or BLACK BOXES had serial numbers….a first in aviation history and it happened 4 times on the same day…
(Update: Mueller…yes that Mueller has stated that the FBI has 'lost all the black boxes' from 9-11! Maybe it's with the original moon landing video that they ALSO said they have lost?)
ALL the buildings and locations on 9-11 appear to have been destroyed by some form of demolition or Directed Energy Weapon
The US government allocated only $3 million dollars to investigate ALL of 9-11(Lewinsky Scandal got $50 million)
EVERY video filming the Pentagon was immediately confiscated (80+ at last count)
The command procedure to shoot down a rogue plane was changed just weeks before 9-11 to having to get Donald Rumsfeld's permission first….and then was changed back immediately the day AFTER 9-11 to the pilot's discretion…..
NOT ONE single video exists of any person (except ATTA) at any airport in any way from any of the planes of 9-11
The reason that tens of millions of dollars were made on "put options" which shorted United and American Airlines just days before 9-11 and the US REFUSES to release exactly who made those financial bets
The reason that Rumsfeld announced $2.3 TRILLION had been "lost" at the Pentagon on 9-10-01 and that the 28 accounting experts would be looking into it (ALL 28 died in the Pentagon plane attack and all investigations were immediately dropped.)
The Pentagon was conducting a "MASCAL" (Mass Casualty) exercise ON THE DAY OF 9-11 at the Pentagon involving a PLANE CRASHING INTO IT…was once again for a weak plausible deniability excuse.
The doors, fire escapes, observation decks, and ALL access to the tops WTC's 1 and 2 buildings were closed and chained up on Monday 9-10-01…was because survivors could talk…
Mayor Gulliani was conducting Operation Tripod II at Pier 92 (rather than his NEW multiple million dollar bunker inside WTC 7) on Monday 9-10-01 which involved terrorist attacks on the WTC's and then the same exact people were then in charge of 9-11..
The FBI released the names, addresses, photos, religious beliefs, whereabouts, affiliations, professional connections, flight training schools, nationalities, personal histories, ages, visa status OF ALL the highjackers within DAYS Of 9-11 (Unibomber took 17 years!)…
PA Gov. Tom Ridge, who would then head a new agency called Homeland Security, said that the WTC debris would be buried at CDI's smelting plant which was purchased just months before 9-11 in PA (no debris went overseas or to China for example!)
Even though it was illegal, Gulliani banned ALL photography and video of the WTC's after the attacks which clearly showed serious problems with the official stories.
Osama Bin Laden denied any connection to wrongdoing and basically says the US government and military are sick and murderous for their own gains … is because he had nothing to do with 9-11.
There will always be massive problems with the passenger lists. NONE of the hijackers were listed on ANY of them.
There will NEVER be a single piece of verified debris from ANY of the 4 planes from ANY of the 4 locations on 9-11.
NO engines, NO tail sections, NO seats, NO fuselage, NO luggage, and NOTHING from any of the planes has ever been found and verified through a serial number.
There are massive problems with the take-off records of the 4 flights on 9-11 is that there was no commercial plane crashes on 9-11.
NOT ONE PENNY has been paid from insurance companies to replace the planes themselves is that they pay only be verifiable debris….and NONE has ever been found…
Bush threatened Congressman to never investigate 9-11, then delayed the investigation 18 months, then handpicked the Commission members, had Commission members quit because they said the Commission was a fraud because they were never going to be allowed to inspect the plane wreckage because of "national security", and then told them to never "cross the line" with regards to plane investigations……
(Sen. Paul Wellstone paid with his life. He demanded to verify the plane debris. That's why he was killed)
The reason that thermite and cordite tested POSITIVE and was found EVERYWHERE on 9-11.
Jet fuel tested NEGATIVE at ALL 4 crash sites on 9-11.
The reason that the WTC towers 1 and 2, which were each 110 stories high of reinforced concrete and steel covering ONE ACRE for each floor…….which was then turned into a pile of dust standing only TWO STORIES HIGH from a fuel fire ( a first in world history)…..was because there were no commercial plane crashes on 9-11.
The reason CDI, Control Demolition Inc, (A DEMOLITION COMPANY ….even though there was no piece of building debris larger than what could fit onto their existing trucks!) was paid $35 Billion to clean up 9-11 (similar to what the US government paid CDI after the OKCity bombing in 1995) and was seen in and around the WTC's AND OKCity Murrah building for weeks and months PRIOR to 9-11 and April 1995….was because there were no commercial plane crashes on 9-11.
The reason everyone smelled cordite and NOT ONE person smelled ANY of the 12,000 gallons of toxic jet fuel at the Pentagon was because there was no commercial plane crashes on 9/11.
The FAA boss destroyed the taped testimony of the 3 air traffic controllers immediately following 9-11 which basically said they could not have been commercial planes…
16 supposed Saudi Arabian men who averaged 5'4″ 120 lbs with ONE-inch knives could highjack 4 planes without a single mayday or hijacking code being entered by a single pilot on 9-11…
The reason that ALL EIGHT, 6-ton, 9ft wide Titanium alloy engines DISAPPEARED (a first in world history and it happened 8 times) .
The reason $15 billion dollars was paid out to the US airline companies within 2 weeks of 9-11.
It is now against US law to investigate or even contact the exact people who took the supposed "man from the street " films, photos, and videos of planes of 9-11…
You will never have ANY truly independent investigation of 9-11 is that your legal system is owned by the same murderers and there was no commercial plane crashes on 9-11.
The reason that everything will be kept in secrecy with regards to any legal procedures, covered with terms like "national security" even though the ENTIRE PLANET supposedly saw it, and ANY court cases will all have gag orders and be closed to the public is because there was no commercial plane crashes on 9-11.

Ten Irrefutable 9-11 Facts that Prove it was a False Flag
Media coverage exposes official lies (YoutTube) 4.5 million views
First Comment by Ken Adachi
It takes time for those who haven't looked into the 'no plane' thesis carefully to fully comprehend that NO physical planes actually flew into either Twin Towers OR the Pentagon.
This article is a good overview of ancillary facts surrounding the 'no plane' story that corroborates the 'no plane' story and helps people, unfamiliar with the true story, to wake up to what really happened.
However, I think it's only fair to give recognition and credit to those who FIRST recognized that no planes flew into the towers and tried hard to get out the story to the general public. One such individual who deserves a GREAT DEAL of early reportage credit is the late Artie Wheeler of Baltimore. He, along with Roger Maffai, were putting out copy-center, spiral bound self-printed books and DVDs beginning in 2005 that nailed the story cold. Artie was dead on target on SO MANY issues surrounding the 9/11 sabotage, that he ought to be given a posthumous Pulitzer for cracking the story wide open, and just 3.5 years after the Day of Our Greatest Betrayal.
Here are some introductory comments I posted on April 18, 2013, concerning an article that originated in 2006 that talks about Artie's pioneering investigative discoveries.of what actually happened on 9/11 and WHO was responsible for the sabotage of the buildings and WHO got the mega-million cleanup contracts to haul away the rubble that THEY created:
http://educate-yourself.org/cn/911conspirators22oct06.shtml
[Editor's Note: April 18, 2013. This is a good roundup of empirical facts surrounding the greatest act of treason in the history of the United States. More information became obvious after this paper was posted in 2006 that made it clear that no physical airliners actually flew into either twin towers. Both "planes" were holographic events. It's not possible for an aluminum framed airplane to slice into a steel and concrete building as if it were a hot knife slicing through butter and not slow down by even one microsecond. The laws of physics don't work that way. A missile flew into the Pentagon, and not a passenger airliner. Foremost architects of this attack include Israeli political leaders, the Rockefellers, Zionists, the Israeli Mossad, the CIA, traitors within the military, the Pentagon, the Exective branch of the US government, and many other complicit groups, including the Zionist-controlled media, the FBI and NORAD. Their treachery resulted in the murder of at least 3,000 innocent people. The purpose was to create a pretext for attacking Iraq and other Arab countries in the Middle East and to launch the Patriot Act, which in turn created the megalith Gestapo-like Dept. of Homeland Security and other fascist, police state enslavement and control agencies. ALL acts of "terrorism" world wide are staged events orchestrated principally by the Israeli Mossad, the CIA, British Intelligence, and their well paid stooges in the military and intelligence services of other countries…Ken Adachi]
This is another article I posted in 2011 defending Artie Wheeler's rightful credit for being the FIRST guy to suggest that some sort of Molecular Disintegration Energy machine (sometimes called "DEW," Directed Energy Weapon) was used to turn the towers of reinforced concrete and heavy steel beams into a pile of fine dust in the space of 11 SECONDS

The late Victor Thorn (1962 – 2016) wrote books exposing Israel and their Jewish allies in high places in the US as the evil parties. Israel did 9/11.

Q: C# Methods - which arguments go where? Disclaimer: I am a very new programmer, so you may have to break this down like I am five years old.
I have a very basic overview of methods in C# and have an assignment to convert alphanumeric inputs into a seven-digit phone number.  At the moment, I have enough code to get the input (entered all at once: 1234567) and have it displayed in telephone number format.  However, I need to run checks on my input so the values are correct -- no symbols, first character != 0, and first three characters != 555.
Here is the code I have thus far:
class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            char c1 = ' ';
            char c2 = ' ';
            char c3 = ' ';
            char c4 = ' ';
            char c5 = ' ';
            char c6 = ' ';

What I'm lost on is how to run these arguments and where they actually go (into which  method?).  Any help is appreciated and I will clarify where I can.  Thank you.

A: Below are some constructs you can use to accomplish your goal. I don't want to rewrite your program but I am going to use a string instead seven char's. This isn't supposed to be a good to go solution, instead it should demonstrate basic control flow with conditionals and some basic techniques for validating strings.
string input = Console.ReadLine();

if (input.Length == 7)
{
    if (!input.StartsWith("555"))
    {
        if (input[0] != '0')
        {
            int temp;
            if (!int.TryParse(input[0].ToString(), out temp)
            {
            }
            else
            {
                // first char is not an int
            }
        }
        else
        {
           // first char is 0 error
        }
    }
    else
    {
         /// 555 error
    }
}
else
{
         // wrong amount of digits

}

To print your string you can use a combination of String.Format and String.SubString
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}-{1}", input.SubString(0,2), input.SubString(3,6)));

#ASUUStrike: ASUU Clears Air On Suspension Of Nationwide Strike
Reports of purported suspension of the nationwide strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has been denied.
ASUU while addressing the issue today, said it has not suspended the ongoing industrial action.
The Chairman, ASUU University of Jos, Dr Lazarus Maigoro, disclosed this in an interview with NAN on Friday.
Maigoro explained that the union hasn't signed any agreements with the Federal Government of Nigeria to call off the strike as being peddled in some quarters.
He said the Federal Government had promised to fulfil parts of the agreement that led to the lingering strike but had failed to do so till date.
Maigoro said, "It must be categorically stated here that ASUU never signed any agreement to suspend the strike but agreed on timelines for the government to implement certain aspects of the issues in contention.
"For instance, one of the issues agreed was that all the six to nine months withheld salaries and check-off dues of ASUU members will be released by December 9, but the date has passed, and nothing was done.
"The N40 billion earned academic allowances and N30 billion funding for revitalisation will also be released by December 11, among other issues, but till now, none has been fulfilled.
"The next thing is that we heard Dr Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labour and Employment, telling the public that ASUU agreed to suspend the strike."
Maigoro rubbished claims by the minister, that the government has fulfilled its part of the agreement reached to enable the union to call off the industrial action.

Q: I cannot retrieve all entries from openLDAP database I set up openLDAP on my Ubuntu server and filled the database via python-ldap with 10.000 persons.
Now, when trying to search for all of them, at first I only got 500 entries.
$ ldapsearch -x -h 192.168.1.222 -b dc=ldap-test,dc=xxx,dc=xx
I googled for a solution, and I read about a server side limit.
Then I changed following value from 500 to:
olcSizeLimit: unlimited

I also tried 15.000, but with the same effect.
Now, with the same search command I get:
# numResponses: 992
# numEntries: 991

I cannot find any 992 or 991 number restriction anywhere. I also grepped for sizelimit - only result is the above setting.
I also read about client side restrictions, but I tried the same search command against the old, deprecated test server, and there I get all 10.000 results.
I'd appreciate any help.

A: The problem was the generation of the data.
I used the Python package Faker which faked the last names, which I used as cn.
As Faker only provides a limited number of last names, the generation of names errored silently.
I fixed the problem by using the complete name for cn.

Q: How to write a convolution multiplication in Android Renderscript? I am new to Android Renderscript.
I need to write a convolution multiplication in RenderScript since the final application is going to run on Android. Data stream is going to be an image.
More specifically, I am not able to write the core logic using forEach functionality, though I can do it in Java, but speed it too slow!
Please help!
Steve

A: During the rsForEach call (or other Renderscript function), you can access the neighbouring pixels of the original image (or whatever type of data you are using) by binding the original image allocation to a pointer within the Renderscript where it can then be accessed as an array. Here is an example based upon the HelloCompute example:
#pragma version(1)
#pragma rs java_package_name(com.android.example.hellocompute)

rs_allocation gIn;
rs_allocation gOut;
rs_script gScript;

static int mImageWidth;
const uchar4 *gPixels;

const float4 kWhite = {
    1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f
};
const float4 kBlack = {
    0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f
};

void init() {
}

static const int kBlurWidth = 20;
static const float kMultiplier = 1.0f / (float)(kBlurWidth * 2 + 1);

void root(const uchar4 *v_in, uchar4 *v_out, const void *usrData, uint32_t x, uint32_t y) {
    float4 original = rsUnpackColor8888(*v_in);

    float4 colour = original * kMultiplier;

    int y_component = mImageWidth * y;

    for ( int i = -kBlurWidth; i < 0; i++) {
        float4 temp_colour;

        if ( (int)x + i >= 0) {
            temp_colour = rsUnpackColor8888(gPixels[x+i + y_component]);
        }
        else {
            temp_colour = kWhite;
        }

        colour += temp_colour * kMultiplier;
    }
    for ( int i = 1; i <= kBlurWidth; i++) {
        float4 temp_colour;

        if ( x + i < mImageWidth) {
            temp_colour = rsUnpackColor8888(gPixels[x+i + y_component]);
        }
        else {
            temp_colour = kWhite;
        }

        colour += temp_colour * kMultiplier;
    }

    colour.a = 1.0f;
    *v_out = rsPackColorTo8888(colour);
}

void filter() {
    mImageWidth = rsAllocationGetDimX(gIn);
    rsDebug("Image size is ", rsAllocationGetDimX(gIn), rsAllocationGetDimY(gOut));
    rsForEach(gScript, gIn, gOut, NULL);
}

Called from the following Java. Note the call to mScript.bind_gPixels(mInAllocation) which binds the original image data to the gPixel pointer in the Renderscript and, therefore, makes the image data available as an array.
    mRS = RenderScript.create(this);

    mInAllocation = Allocation.createFromBitmap(mRS, mBitmapIn,
                                                Allocation.MipmapControl.MIPMAP_NONE,
                                                Allocation.USAGE_SCRIPT);
    mOutAllocation = Allocation.createTyped(mRS, mInAllocation.getType());

    mScript = new ScriptC_blur(mRS, getResources(), R.raw.blur);

    mScript.bind_gPixels(mInAllocation);

    mScript.set_gIn(mInAllocation);
    mScript.set_gOut(mOutAllocation);
    mScript.set_gScript(mScript);
    mScript.invoke_filter();
    mOutAllocation.copyTo(mBitmapOut);

Home Football Team News Notre Dame Transfers
Notre Dame Lands Huge Commit from All-American Transfer Brandon Joseph
Notre Dame adds All-American to safety room replacing Kyle Hamilton in 2022.
Frank Vitovitch Follow on Twitter January 8, 2022

On Saturday, Notre Dame added a huge piece to its secondary for potentially the next few years when Northwestern safety transfer committed to Notre Dame and Marcus Freeman. The 2020 All-American immediately adds some star power to a room that was big on numbers and potential but lacked proven playmaking ability. It has it now with Joseph selecting the Irish.
Everyone knew Notre Dame would lose Kyle Hamilton to the NFL long before the season even started. The staff pinned a lot of hopes on luring the likes of Xavier Nwankpa to Notre Dame to be the heir apparent, but when those efforts failed, it seemed likely the Irish would need to dip into the transfer portal for 2022. Not only did they dip in, they plucked out a former All-American who will almost certainly lock up a starting role.
Joseph burst onto the scene as a redshirt freshman in 2020 for Northwestern with six interceptions in nine games. In the process, Joseph earned consensus All-American honors – just the 14th player in Northwestern history to do so. He also made one of the plays of the year in 2020 with his ridiculous interception in the Big Ten Championship game.

— FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) December 19, 2020
This year, Notre Dame had one safety on the roster capable of making that kind of play, and he will be a top-10 pick in a few months.
Joseph's production fell off slightly in 2021, but it isn't easy to replicate six interceptions in nine games. Still, he had three in another nine games this year. That would have tied him with Kyle Hamilton and DJ Brown for the team lead on the Notre Dame defense.

Notre Dame Zeroing In On All-American Safety Transfer Brandon Joseph
2022 Notre Dame Football Scholarship Chart
Joseph ended the 2021 season with 80 tackles, including 1.5 for loss. The most tackles any defensive back on Notre Dame's roster had in 2021 was 53, Clarence Lewis. DJ Brown led all safeties with 42 tackles, while Houston Griffith had 38 despite starting every game. Hamilton did have 35 tackles in less than 6.5 games before his injury. Safeties not named Kyle Hamilton combined for 1.5 tackles for the Irish on the season.
PFF graded Joseph out as one of the best defensive backs in the country in 2020, his All-American campaign, but his grade fell off sharply in 2021. If Notre Dame gets a player anywhere close to somewhere in the middle, it's a significant upgrade to the safety position in 2022. If the Irish get the same defensive back who was named Big Ten Freshman of the year in 2020, this is a home run addition for the Notre Dame defense.
Joseph might also be able to help revitalize the Notre Dame punt return unit under new special teams coordinator Brian Mason. Joseph averaged 28.5 yards a return on four tries with a log of 65 this past season.
For the second year in a row, Notre Dame has added a transfer who was previously an All-American. Last year it was guard Cain Madden who had an up and down season with the Irish. After a rough start, he rebounded well and found his footing with Notre Dame before ending the year with a rough outing in the Fiesta Bowl. However, he still started every game for the Irish and if the Irish get the same from Joseph, consider it a win.
DJ Brown and Houston Griffth Back for Notre Dame
The safety room at Notre Dame will be pretty full in 2022 because both potential 5th-year seniors announced they were returning to Notre Dame earlier this week. Houston Griffith was the first to announce, and then DJ Brown announced his return on Friday night. Both returning, in addition to a safety transfer, is an interesting development given some of the ascending players at the position.
Notre Dame plays a lot of three safety looks at times, but with the emergence of Ramon Henderson and Xavier Watts at the position, there should be some healthy competition at safety this spring and into fall camp.
Secondary Exposed in Fiesta Bowl
Notre Dame replaced Kyle Hamilton remarkably well in the second half of the season, but Oklahoma State was able to exploit the loss of Hamilton like no one else had. Having a month to prepare probably helped, but it still exposed some glaring holes that needed to be patched. Joseph is a great start. So too are the freshman trio of defensive backs who signed with the Irish last month.
Joseph's experience and talent mean Notre Dame shouldn't be forced to plug in players at safety who started the season at another position. The addition of Joseph, along with the return of Griffith and Brown, also afford the duo of Henderson and Watts more time to learn the position – Watts specifically since he started the 2021 season on offense. Given the numbers at wide receiver, I'm sure some will suggest a move back to offense for Watts, but given how highly Marcus Freeman spoke about his potential on defense, that might not be the best for the long term for both the team and the player.

Judge: Release Dashcam Footage Of Army Veteran's Arrest
Editor's Note: I helped to bring you the story about Master Sergeant C. J. Grisham and how the Temple Police went way overboard in arresting him without cause, and later, attempted to smooth things over by getting him to cop to a lower charge. Grisham wouldn't do it and is now in court. He provided this update on May 16, 2013.
At 1400 yesterday in the auxiliary courtroom – venue was moved due to a large number of supporters in attendance – visiting judge Neel Richardson ruled on a defense motion in my case to release dashcam footage.
The decision came one day shy of the two months since my arrest. In spite of numerous open records requests by my attorney, Kurt W. Glass, and numerous watchdog groups, the prosecutor, police department, and 911 call center have refused to release any of the exculpatory evidence in my case. The decision also comes a mere two days after the Texas House voted to pass the Michael Morton Act (it was signed into law by Governor Perry today), a measure designed to prevent wrongful convictions and named in honor of a Texan who spent nearly 25 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. It would create a uniform "open file" policy in Texas, compelling prosecutors to share case files with defense attorneys that can help defendants' cases.
Section 552.001 of the Texas Government Code states that it is the policy of the government to recognize that "the people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created. The provisions of this chapter shall be liberally construed to implement this policy."
Michael Morton was a Texan thatspent wasted 25 years of his life in prison for a crime he didn't commit. The law states that "as soon as practicable after receiving a timely request from the defendant the state shall produce and permit the inspection and the electronic duplication, copying, and photographing, by or on behalf of the defendant, of any offense reports, any designated documents, papers, written or recorded statements of the defendant or a witness, including witness statements of law enforcement officers but not including the work product of counsel for the state in the case and their investigators and their notes or report, or any designated books, accounts, letters, photographs, or objects or other tangible things not otherwise privileged that constitute or contain evidence material to any matter involved in the action and that are in the possession, custody, or control of the state or any person under contract with the state." Unfortunately, these changes to Article 39.14, Code of Criminal Procedure, don't take effect until January 1, 2014. Why? If these changes are needed, they are needed now.
Morton, 58, was sentenced to life in prison for the 1986 slaying of his wife Christine, but freed in October 2011, after DNA testing was done on a bloody bandanna originally found near the couple's Austin home. Investigators said the DNA evidence led them to another man, Mark Alan Norwood, whose DNA was in a national database as a result of his long criminal history.
The district attorney at Morton's trial, Ken Anderson, now a state district judge in Georgetown north of Austin, is accused of deliberately withholding evidence from the defense that indicated Morton's innocence. He is now facing criminal contempt and tampering with evidenced and government records charges.
The problem in Texas is that too many prosecutors, including those in Bell County, only release this information when it helps their side of the case. They have a history of withholding evidence when it makes law enforcement look bad, something I'm sure Texans didn't intend when the Open Records Act became law.
While the judge ruled that the dashcam footage must be released to Mr. Kurt Glass, the Bell County Assistant Prosecutor Mark Danford requested that the judge also rule that the information not be shared with media or placed online. Danford complained about evidence that had supposedly already been released, generating a viral video and national attention. One has to wonder what reason Danford has in asking the judge to place a de facto gag order on the dashcam video and drag this case out any longer than it needs to be.
One could speculate that the request/decision was one of financial motivation. Let's face it, they know that I am a career soldier with a family and farm to support. They have to know I'm not made of money. By preventing the video from getting out to the public, which could (would) generate further public support for my case; they also can potentially prevent further financial support to my legal fund. Additionally, they know that the longer this drags out, the more money I have to shell out in fees to my attorney. They've seen how much has been raised for my defense and I wouldn't doubt that their object is to drain as much of that as possible, making this the most expensive Class B Misdemeanor case in the history of Bell County.
If they can drag out the legal process, limiting my ability to generate interest in my case and contributions to my legal fund, they could possibly impact the outcome of the proceedings. Mr. Glass has done a great job polishing this turd and trying to get the county to do the right thing.
It's easy to complain that it should be the purpose of the Bell County Attorney to ensure that justice is done and that the courts aren't used to waste taxpayer money on frivolous charges. Unfortunately, the word "justice" doesn't appear anywhere on the County Attorney's webpage. However, the page DOES frequently mention the mission to prosecute the more than 1,000 misdemeanors filed each week by Bell County LEOs. Based on how my case has been treated, I can't help but wonder how many of those are as bogus and fraudulent as mine. How many innocent Texans are now convicted criminals because of lying police officers and a prosecution team that supports their schemes by refusing to drop charges and dragging out the sham case costing citizens thousands of dollars to defend themselves and taxpayers who knows how much?!
The video is going to be released one day. By delaying our ability to shed light upon the cockroaches infesting our city, the prosecutors are only allowing them to continuing spreading their germs around the city. The longer they delay righting the wrongs that have propagated against me, the worse they will look in the end.

Current: Whistleblower Protection
What is a whistleblower?
A whistleblower is a person who provides information about a person or an organisation to expose activity that they consider is illegal, dishonest or unethical.
To "blow the whistle" means to revealing to supervisors, managers or appropriate authorities information about wrongdoing so that it can be stopped or prevented from reoccurring. This might include revealing information about someone or a group of people who have:-
acted illegally;
wasted public money;
misused public resources;
falsified records; or
risked public health, safety or the environment.
Further information about wrongdoing that may constitute fraud or corruption and what you can do about it can be found on the Integrity and Accountability webpage and on the Office of Research Ethics, Compliance and Integrity website. See also the Fraud and Corruption Control Policy.
How does whistleblower protection work?
Protection for whistleblowers is required by law and is a way of encouraging people to speak up by ensuring that they are protected from reprisals. No-one should be mistreated or adversely affected for doing the right thing. The University has a Whistleblower Policy which establishes a reporting structure to protect anyone who is aware of wrongdoing but is concerned that there may be consequences for them if they make a report.
Whistleblowers play a vital role in exposing misconduct and illegal activity within the workplace. Most whistleblowers are close enough to see wrongdoing because they are a part of the organisation or work area. Fraud and corruption is often first detected as a result of everyday work activity. This closeness to the activity can make it difficult for someone to report misconduct to another employee or manager.
The Public Interest Disclosure Act 2018 (SA) makes it unlawful to treat people unfairly because they are whistleblowers. The Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) provides further whistleblower protection for officers (usually a Director or the Secretary) of companies, employees and contractors of the company and their employees.
For more information on whistleblower protection refer to the Policy or to the Whistleblower Protection Act summary. Further information about reporting wrongdoing is available from the Legal and Risk Branch or from the South Australian Office for Public Integrity.
How to make a report
If you become aware of activity that you reasonably suspect or know is fraudulent, illegal or improper, please report it as soon as possible.
Reports may be directed to your supervisor or to a Head of School or Branch. For more information about reporting fraud or corruption please refer to the Fraud and Corruption Control Reporting Procedures Diagram. You should also consider whether you have obligations under the Independent Commissioner Against Corruption Act and must report to the Office of Public Integrity.
If you have a concern that you may suffer consequences, please refer to the Whistleblower Reporting Procedures and make a report to one of the University's Authorised Disclosure Officers.
The Authorised Disclosure Officers are:
An Executive Dean in any Faculty of the University
Chief Operating Officer, Divisions of University Operations
Dean of Law, Adelaide Law School
Employees of a University of Adelaide Controlled Entity are also encouraged to report suspected incidents either to the Chair of the Entity or to one of the University's Authorised Disclosure Officers.
Tips on reporting
Disclosure of information to the Whistleblower Protection Officer directly is preferable, as meetings will be in person and in private.
Reporting via email is good too, because it can seem less daunting and is a useful way of organising the facts of the matter before discussing them in person.
Anonymous letters or reports should be avoided as they are difficult to act on and generally fail to disclose sufficient or specific information to even start an investigation.
When making a report under whistleblower provisions, you are expected to act in good faith and reasonably and ensure the information you disclose is legitimate and true.
To learn more about whistleblower protection provisions, refer to the Whistleblower Protection Act (summary).
Review of University Whistleblower Policy
The University is currently reviewing its Whistleblower Policy and resources due to changes to South Australian legislation in 2019.

"Platform" risk
March 14, 2015 by Eugene Wei
Last night, Twitter curtailed Meerkat's access to its graph. I saw lots of discussion on Twitter (I'd say this was ironic but it's just expected) about why and whether Twitter should just compete on its own merits with its recent acquisition Periscope.
Some have termed what happened to Meerkat "platform risk," and it is, but one must be willfully naive to consider ad-monetized social graphs like Facebook and Twitter to be capital P Platforms. I prefer to call them little p "platforms" (I'm drawing air quotes with my fingers in case you aren't watching me live on Meerkat as I write this).
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a Platform. That is, you can count on it even if you use it to compete with its parent company Amazon. Netflix still uses AWS in their tech stack even as Amazon Instant Video is spending over a billion dollars on content to battle it out with Netflix in the video streaming space, to name one example, and I've yet to hear of any company of any size getting bounced from AWS because they were competitive to Amazon. You could even start a retail company and use AWS. It's a utility like the power company.
The reasons why lie in both Amazon's business model and philosophy. AWS isn't free. This is crucial because Amazon makes money off of its AWS customers regardless of what business they're in. As for AWS's philosophy, you can call it altruistic or just pragmatic or both, but if Amazon wants to compete with a company that uses AWS, Amazon will try to beat them in the marketplace. If they can't, they still get a bite of that competitor's income through AWS fees. It's a win either way, and considering AWS is a fast-growing platform that's a critical piece of the world's technology stack, it's more than a minor one.
Compare this to free tech platforms offered by companies like Facebook and Twitter that make money off of ads targeted at their social graphs. If a company like Meerkat comes along and piggybacks off the Twitter graph to explosive growth and captures a unique graph, in this case around live video-casting, Twitter doesn't make any money. On the contrary, since the network effects of graph-based products tend to lead to "winner takes all" lock-in, Twitter just ends up having armed a formidable competitor that it might have to spend a lot to buy or compete with later. It's a no-win situation.
Facebook has similar ambivalence as a platform. Anyone familiar with the tech space in recent years can name more than one company that rode the Facebook graph and News Feed to explosive growth only to plummet off a cliff when Facebook turned a knob behind the scenes or just cut off access.
None of this should be surprising unless you're some "don't be evil" idealist. Take a more realpolitik view of tech and put yourself in Twitter and Facebook's shoes. Why do they want developers to build off of their platforms? The most ideal developers on their platforms would be apps and services that publish lots of great content into Facebook's News Feed and Twitter's Timeline such that users spent more time in either service seeing ads.
The worst kind of developer would be one that used either the News Feed or Timeline just as a captive notification stream to build their own competitive social graph. Meerkat is guilty of at least one part of that. Meerkat leaves random links in Twitter that take users out of Twitter's timeline to some other app to experience content, and Meerkat's stale links just sit in Twitter timelines like branding debris or worse, as spam.
For all its press these past few weeks, Meerkat's graph is relatively shallow. However, the potential for being first to get traction as another near real-time medium of note was rising with every live broadcast notification from another tech influencer. As Twitter knows better than anyone, it's not necessarily how many users you convert in the beginning of your journey to create a high-value graph, it's who you convert, and Meerkat had captured the imagination of some real luminaries. Furthermore, Meerkat is actually more real-time than Twitter, which lays claim to being the best publicly available real-time social network.
Notifications are the most valuable communication channel of the modern age given the ubiquity of smartphones, and Facebook and Twitter are among the most valuable information streams to tap into given their large user bases and extensive graphs. Email is no longer the summit of the communication hierarchy, and both Facebook and Twitter want to avoid the spam issue that polluted email's waterfalls.
This conflict of interest is why I refer to Facebook and Twitter as little p platforms. Developer beware. Unless they change their business model, any developer trying to build some other graph off of Facebook or Twitter should have a second strategy in place in case of explosive growth because access won't persist.
Even before Facebook and Twitter, this type of platform risk from ad-supported businesses lay in wait to trap unsuspecting companies. Google search engine traffic is one of the more well-known ones. Google's PageRank algorithm is, for the most part, a black box, and I've encountered many a company that fell on hard times or went out of business after Google tweaked PageRank behind the scenes and turned off the bulk of a their organic traffic overnight. As Google enters more and more businesses, that platform risk only escalates.
Alternative Platforms do exist, even if they're not perfect, and that matters because AWS, as developer friendly as it is, doesn't offer a useful graph for companies looking for viral growth.
The most important such platform to date might be Apple's contact book. It's certainly one of the largest graphs in the world, and Apple doesn't rely on advertising to those users for income. The App Store is not completely open, but it's reasonably so, and once you're approved as an app it's rare that Apple would pull the rug out from underneath you the way Facebook and Twitter have.
Phone numbers were the previous generation's most accessible and widespread key for identity and the social graph, and Apple's iOS and Google's Android operating systems and the rise of the smartphone suddenly opened a gateway to that graph. Many messaging apps bootstrapped alternative or parallel social graphs just that way. I doubt the telcos were looking that many moves ahead on the chess board, and even if they had, I'm not sure they would have had much recourse even if they had wanted to prevent it from happening.
Meerkat is a very specific situation though, and the reason I still think of Twitter and Facebook as valuable platforms, even if it's with a lowercase p, is that both developers and Twitter and Facebook can benefit from lots of other more symbiotic relationships with each other. These relationships are possible specifically because of the nature of Twitter and Facebook primary ad unit.
Both companies could do a better job of clarifying the nuance of just what types of relationships qualify. This would head off more developer frustration and prevent them from just writing off those two platforms entirely, as many already have. Given how many developers have been burned in the past, distrust is high, but I believe a lack of clear and predictable rules makes up more of the platform risk here than is necessary.
More on that in a follow-up post.

Minecraft as platform
July 26, 2014 by Eugene Wei
Fun appreciation of Minecraft by Robin Sloan.
To play, you must seek information elsewhere.
Was it a conscious decision? A strategic bit of design? I don't know. Maybe Markus Persson always intended to create an in-game tutorial but never got around to it. If so: lucky him, and lucky us, because by requiring the secret knowledge to be stored, and sought, elsewhere, he laid the foundation for Minecraft's true form.
Minecraft-the-game, maintained in Sweden by Persson's small studio, is just the seed, or maybe the soil. The true Minecraft (no italics, for we are speaking of something larger now) is the game plus the sprawling network of tutorials, wikis, galleries, videos—seriously, search for "minecraft" on YouTube and be amazed—mods, forum threads, and more. The true Minecraft is the oral tradition: secrets and rumors shared in chat rooms, across cafeteria tables, between block-faced players inside the game itself.
When I first started working on the Amazon Web Services team in 2003, one of the things Jeff Bezos hammered home to us was the importance of building everything at the most atomic level possible so they could be reassembled in ways unimaginable even to us. I had lunch with him once and we were talking about our interests outside of work, and he mentioned his love of this book Creation: Life and How to Make It by Steve Grand. The book discusses, among other things, how complex things can be built if you have the right building blocks, and one of the most important attributes of those building blocks was that they be defined as simply and atomically as possible.
So, for example, when we discussed a payment web service, Jeff didn't want a security layer built in. That was something separate from the core of an atomic payments service which should just be about sending and receiving money.
I have not played Minecraft before, but Sloan's article gives me the sense it has that same atomic nature that characterizes generative platforms for really creative work.
My favorite networked services all have that quality, but capturing value from these building blocks in the form of revenue is a trickier problem and often involves building products and services on top of that very platform.
One of my favorite and most beautifully atomic building blocks of the web, Twitter, is grappling with that same issue. I've been meaning to share some thoughts on some possible ways forward for Twitter because the possibilities are fun to contemplate and it's a service I really love. That's a subject for another post, but suffice it to say that they have huge potential given their elegant architecture, and that can be both a blessing and a curse as some Chinese proverb goes.

'Ready' projects aim to work with all young people to ensure a progressive development of enterprise skills, qualities and knowledge. A young person's enterprise learning journey should build on previous experiences, reinforcing previous learning and challenging them on to the next stage of development. The result is that enterprise is not seen as a bolt on – it is seen as an approach to teaching and learning and a way of giving new purpose and meaning to the curriculum.
At the heart of the 'Ready' approach are the Big 13 – the enterprise skills education and business leaders identified that young people would need to be successful and ensure they can participate in and contribute to a thriving economy. At Buxworth, these skills are embedded into school life and the curriculum so that teachers and learners are excited about embracing the language and concepts of enterprise. There is an emphasis on self-reflection and review so learners develop an understanding of their strengths and understand how to address their weaknesses.
o We aim to ensure that the Enterprise Process is fun, engaging, develops skills and gives pupils ownership of their learning.
o We aim to create opportunities for our children to take the lead, take risks, make decisions and explore what they are capable of.
o We aim to give all pupils an opportunity to achieve and that every child will find something they are good at. We will support pupils so all learners can find strengths within themselves.
Enterprise is embedded within the curriculum as an integral part of the philosophy of the school.
Enterprise Learning shows how learning is applied to the world of work and business. Through site visits and visitors to school, pupils can see what they can do with skills, knowledge and the right attitude in the real world.
Enterprise Learning is active learning. The process of plan-do-review makes learning engaging, fun and develops pupil responsibility.
Enterprise Learning raises aspirations. It exposes pupils to situations and role models that will inspire them.
Enterprise learning develops pupil's awareness of the world in which they live, with all its challenges and opportunities.
Enterprise skills are taught explicitly to all children and each class will display the Big 13 in their classrooms.
Planning clearly highlights the progression of enterprise skills and application throughout the school. Planning highlights enterprise skills to be developed across the curriculum. Each class should undertake one larger scale project during the school year, but on-going plans should reflect the Big 13.
Appropriate teaching and learning styles and strategies are used to develop enterprise awareness and understanding.
Enterprising behaviour and attitudes are modelled by all adults in school.
Staff recognise and celebrate enterprising behaviours.
Enterprise is actively celebrated through displays, newsletters, assemblies and in the local press.
Evidence of enterprise activity and skills development is recorded by both staff and students using a variety of methods such as; photographs, case studies, film, sound, enterprise scrapbooks/diaries.
o Will continue to liaise with Derbyshire Ready to gain further training, ideas and support to then share with colleagues and pupils.
o Will monitor, review and evaluate the Enterprise teaching and learning opportunities. Policy and practice will be reviewed annually, to take account of the changing curriculum and school focus as well as the world of work and new technologies.
o Add to a portfolio of work showing how each of the skills have been developed in school. All enterprise education will be evidenced through examples of work, photographs and evaluations by both staff and pupils.
o Embed the Big 13 into all planning, and plan for one larger scale Enterprise Project each year.
o Display the language of the Big 13 in each classroom.
