Blog: Dr Helen Drury, Founder and Director
Communicating Intent, Implementation and Impact
Dr Helen Drury reflects on Ofsted's new inspection framework while launching a new section of the Mathematics Mastery website designed to help our partner schools communicate the 'Intent' of their curriculum and explaining how Mathematics Mastery supports teachers to close the implementation gap.
England's obsession with exam results has been really damaging for young people. It's also made teaching much less fun! Rather than teach the full domain of the subject to every pupil, what's taught has got narrower and narrower, with teachers under pressure to predict the questions on high stakes exams and drill pupils to succeed in them.
Ofsted's new Education Inspection Framework is a huge shift away from that. Exam results are still important, and performance in maths will rightly continue to be a passport to social mobility. But now the experience of pupils in the years running up to those exams matters too.
We've long been campaigning for a re-focus on what Amanda Spielman calls 'the very substance of education'. Our pioneer schools, when the Mathematics Mastery partnership began in 2012, were so brave focussing on substance and understanding in a system where that was undervalued.
Our partner schools have demonstrated again and again that, by focussing on a meaningful mathematics education (rather than test preparation), you can achieve deeper understanding and greater enjoyment and see improvements in exam performance.
However, the big change in inspection emphasis will inevitably have some unintended consequences. Ofsted's research found that the vast majority of schools do not have a language for discussing curriculum and have given it surprisingly little thought.
No quick fix
It's great that Ofsted's trying to shift this culture, but is everything happening too quickly? Because of the accountability culture, many school leaders find themselves under pressure to 'fix' curriculum almost overnight. It feels like a missed opportunity, as it would have been great to see schools take their time.
It does mean though that the schools who've been collaborating around Mathematics Mastery's common curriculum for the past few years have put themselves at a huge advantage. I'd love to have seen all schools in the country have those years of thought and reflection.
To ensure that all of our partner schools are able to make the most of and communicate this advantage, we've developed a new section of our website to explain how Mathematics Mastery contributes to a school's curriculum and to describe how the programme helps to close the gap between Intent and Implementation. You can have a read of it here.
Why do we teach mathematics? Because the habits of thinking mathematically are life-enriching. Because it is vital to be numerate to participate fully in society and democratic processes. Because our economy depends on a numerate workforce and a significant number of specialists in maths and science-related subjects. So, when we're thinking about the 'Intent' of our programme, it is all about finding ways to ensure that every young person, regardless of background, has a rich and meaningful mathematics education.
One of the most innovative things about the Mathematics Mastery programme, when it was founded back in 2012, was its integration of curriculum resources with professional development. Before Mathematics Mastery, there were textbooks, online packages and resourced schemes of work, but they often had limited one-off training, if any, and then maybe a 'Teachers Guide' which was rarely consulted.
There was a wealth of training on offer, much of it of excellent quality, but as a teacher I often found it difficult to put the exciting ideas I'd heard about on a course into practice in my classroom. We weren't using the words 'Intent' and 'Implementation' back then, but we were only too aware of the gap between what's in the mind of a curriculum designer or resource creator, and what happens in the classroom.
Because we work with all our partner schools over a sustained period, and visit them all regularly, we are uniquely placed to help schools minimise the intent-implementation gap. We provide all our schools with training and resources for preparing to teach, each of which is iteratively honed to ensure it's efficient and effective. We're committed to our teachers learning as much as they can about the most important things, in the shortest and most appropriate time possible.
When it comes to impact, it needs to be tangible. Maths is a wonderful subject, but sadly it can con people into thinking it's easier to assess and measure than other subjects. I have a fear that the language of 'know more, remember more and do more' might be interpreted as focussing on fact memorisation and procedures. A mathematics education must involve thinking mathematically, developing conceptual understanding, and communicating mathematical ideas. None of these things are easy to measure.
I'm worried that many dedicated maths teachers might become masters of memorisation, repetition and revision, so pupils reach their SATs in Year 6 or their GCSEs in Year 11 stuffed with meaningless facts and methods. The mastery approach that we pioneered, that is now being advocated by the DfE's Maths Hubs programme, should mitigate against this; schools are being encouraged to use representations to expose underlying structures, and to challenge through depth of reasoning rather than content coverage.
As the new framework continues to be put into practice, I hope that inspectors are asking pupils 'why', and not just 'what'. Yes, we need pupils to be fluent, but that fluency (as the National Curriculum makes clear) must encompass understanding and be accompanied by reasoning and problem solving.

D3baseball.com Mideast Pitcher of the Year Tommy Parsons headlines Adrian College on that organization's all-America squad as the senior standout was named Wednesday to the second team. In addition, classmate Hunter Hayes made D3baseball All-America Honorable Mention as a first baseman.
A three-time Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Pitcher of the Year, Parsons repeats his D3baseball.com All-America status as he was third team in 2017. He posted an 11-0 mark with one save while leading the MIAA in earned-run average (1.72), victories, strikeouts (109), shutouts (2), complete games (10) and innings pitched (94.0). Opponents hit just .232 against him. Among NCAA Division III leaders, Parsons is first in complete games, third in strikeout-to-walks ratio (15.57), fifth in strikeouts and walks allowed per 9 innings (0.67), 21st in WHIP (0.95) and 32nd in ERA. He has been on D3baseball's all-region first team for the three consecutive years.
Hayes, too, enjoyed a career year that included MIAA-topping eight home runs, 18 doubles, 56 runs batted in and .617 slugging percentage while batting a personal-best .351. He became the 37th member of the AC 100-hit club in the second game of a twinbill at Albion College on April 22. The exercise science major tied a school record with five hits in a game (Trine on April 27) and tied the program's RBI record for a season (shared with Ryan Dorow, a current farmhand of the Texas Rangers). On the national scene, he ranks 21st in RBI, 27th in total bases (116) and 31st in doubles.

Spain's Mysterious Cursed Village of Witches
Brent Swancer June 14, 2018
Nestled away within the rolling foothills of the Moncayo mountain range, in the province of Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain, is the tiny village of Trasmoz. The town has a long history, with its origins as a lordship dating back to the 12th century. Its colorful and turbulent past has seen it being conquered by Jaime I, king of Aragón, as well as a civil war with the nearby Veruela Abbey, and it is also known as being the temporary home of Manuel Jalón Coróminas, the Spanish inventor of the mop and its bucket. Over the years the population has dwindled here from around 10,000 people in its heyday to just around 62 permanent residents, and it seems like just another quaint little Spanish countryside town, but this place is remarkable as having a rather sinister past as a place of witches, pagan rituals, and black magic.
Ground zero for rumors of witchcraft can be traced to the construction of the Castle of Trasmoz sometime in the 13th century. The layout of the spooky and imposing structure was a unique hexagonal shape, which was seen as a sure sign of witchcraft afoot, and it did not help that the castle supposedly constantly issued forth anomalous noises such as rattling chains, the banging of metal, which was seen as the result of witches mixing potions in their cauldrons and other mischief, as well as occasional shrieks and arcane wails. Even the construction of the castle was wreathed in myth, as it was said to have been created in a single night by a magician called Mutamín.
Many of these bizarre rumors seem to have been originally intentionally spread by the castle's very own inhabitants. At the time the Castle of Trasmoz was said to be a major den of the illicit manufacture of fake coins, which was helped along by the rich silver and iron mines of the area. It is said that in order to keep the locals from becoming too nosy about all the noise they were making, the counterfeiters intentionally began to fan out rumors that the scraping and banging of metal was from the nefarious activities of witches engaged in their dark, arcane business. The ploy worked, and it is thought that this is where the village's reputation as a haven of witches began.
Unfortunately for the villagers, the rumors spread by the fake coin forgers worked a little too well. Before long the rumor grew to encompass the whole village, until it was seen as a veritable hive of witches and warlocks, a cursed place and a center of the dark arts that stirred fear and superstition in the surrounding areas, an idea still held on to by many today. It got to the point that the neighboring monastery of Veruela had the entire village officially excommunicated from the Church, although this is often seen as just being an excuse to force Trasmoz to pay taxes to them, something from which had previously been exempt as it didn't officially belong to the Catholic Church. With the excommunication carried out and in full effect, the villagers nevertheless refused to beg for forgiveness, with many of them Jews and Muslims and not even Christian, which only furthered their reputation as Devil worshipping heathens.
The friction between Trasmoz and Veruela Abbey would continue for many years, eventually almost leading to civil war when the abbey began trying to divert the village's irrigation water without paying. Although the King of Spain, King Ferdinand II, deemed Trasmoz to be in the right in terms of the water dispute and ruled in their favor, the Church took this as an affront. Seething that they had been bested by this witch infested, excommunicated town, the Catholic Church went about getting revenge. Pope Julius II gave permission to dust off the powerful and rarely used Catholic curse "psalm 108 of the Book of Psalms," which is said to be a potent curse saved for the worst of times, and in this case it was invoked to curse the entire village of Trasmoz.
It was in the wake of this wicked curse that the once prosperous and populous village fell into severe decline, suffering from a mysterious epidemic of disease, famine, a fire which burned down the Castle of Trasmoz in 1520, and other myriad woes, during which time the population fell to its current low. Even to this day the village is poor and in shambles, its buildings weathered and decrepit, its nearly empty streets cracked and weed-choked, a veritable ghost town, and for many this is a result of the Catholic curse, which is technically still in effect as no Pope has ever officially lifted it. This makes Trasmoz the only whole town in all of Spain to remain both excommunicated and also cursed by the Catholic Church, as well as to incidentally still be considered a haven for witches and witchcraft.
This reputation has brought in droves of tourists to this tiny, withered village, who come for the dark history and to see for themselves what an officially cursed town of witches looks like. Trasmoz does little to downplay this history of witchcraft, and indeed there is the yearly Feria de Brujeria festival held here, during which amulets, potions, herbs, charms, and other magical witch's items are sold, and there is even the crowning of the "Witch of the Year," called the Bruja del Año. There is even a museum of witchcraft now located in the Castle of Trasmoz, where the whole legend started. If one is ever to visit, there are plenty of charms to be bought against witchcraft, so rest assured you are in safe hands.

Fitbit Announces Pebble Smartwatch Will Get Only Six More Months Of Support
26 January 2018, 10:10 pm EST By William Cannon Tech Times
Fitbit has revealed the fate of the Pebble smartwatch ecosystem, and it's not good for Pebble smartwatch owners. While the watch will still work, a handful of features will disappear this year.
Fitbit took to its blog to reveal a more definitive answer to Pebble and its products. The Pebble hardware and ecosystem has been up in the air since Fitbit purchased the company. They had previously assured Pebble users and app developers that it would keep Pebble smartwatches going for some time.
Unfortunately, Pebble's devices and software are done, and Fitbit will only extend support for the devices until June 30. The blog post gives a bit more detail, saying that the company is evolving and moving forward and away from Pebble's platform.
The blog post got more specific, revealing the Pebble will no longer have access to the voice recognition features, SMS and email replies, timeline pins from third-party apps, the Pebble app store, the Pebble forum, and the CloudPebble development tool. The latter is the program that allows developers to create apps for Pebble.
Pebble's mobile app that's available on iOS and Android will continue to work, although there will be no more updates to the apps. Functionality could end with future updates to both software.
Fitbit Buys Pebble
Back in December 2016, Pebble officially announced that the company would be shutting down and would not manufacture or support anymore devices. It also announced that the company could no longer honor any existing warranties.
Fitbit bought the Pebble Smartwatch's intellectual property and some of its assets for around $23 million.
What Can Pebble Users Do?
Once functionality ends, the Pebble smartwatches will only work as a watch, and unfortunately, there will be nothing users can do.
However, Fitbit wants to entice Pebble users to make the jump to their products. The company is offering a discount on Fitbit devices with a valid Pebble device serial number. There is a $50 discount on the Fitbit Ionic smartwatch, making it $249.95.
The Ionic is the only device at the moment that uses the Fitbit operating system, and it's useful to have apps and more.
While the company didn't say it outright, this is essentially the end of Pebble. Without the Pebble app store, there will be no way for users to manage their third-party apps.

Q: How to display matshow() in Juno for Julia? I'm trying to display a 2x2 matrix with matshow() using PyPlot in Julia for Juno IDE:
using PyPlot
pyplot()
a = [rand(5),rand(5)]
display(matshow(a))

which displays
PyObject <matplotlib.image.AxesImage object at 0x145daa5f8>

in the REPL. But, no plots appear. I've also checked the Plots pane and no plots were made.
I am able to use other plotting devices however, such as plot, scatter, and histogram. And they appear as expected in the Plots pane.

Gamma Ray - "Skeletons & Majesties" (CD/EP)
"Skeletons & Majesties" track listing:
1. Hold Your Ground
2. Brothers
3. Send Me A Sign
4. Rebellion In Dreamland
5. Wannabees
6. Brothers (extended version)
7. Rebellion In Dreamland (karaoke version)
Reviewed by Kapper on June 9, 2011
"'Skeletons & Majesties' will more than likely become confined to the dustier end of your music library after a couple of spins."
With ten full length albums under its collective belt, German power metal act Gamma Ray is deserving of the title as one of the best melodic metal acts going today. Deciding to try and keep their fans happy between the release of the latest record "To The Metal!" and a future studio release, the four piece group has released the mini-album "Skeletons & Majesties."
Essentially, "Skeletons & Majesties" is a stock-standard "re-recorded rarities/acoustic re-workings" affair, and will more than likely become confined to the dustier end of your music library after a couple of spins. The acoustic versions of "Send Me A Sign" and "Rebelliion in Dreamland" are moderately interesting, while the new versions of "Brothers" and "Hold Your Ground" fair better than the aforementioned acoustic tracks, but they are hardly worth picking up the release.
The addition of two bonus tracks, which includes extended run-through of "Brothers" and a 'karaoke" version of "Rebellion In Dreamland," is completely pointless, especially when the latter features around ten minutes of dead air after the song has finished, before revealing a couple of minutes of the band mucking around in the studio – surely the digital age has made the whole mystique of the hidden track completely annul?
Would you say that "Skeletons & Majesties" is a stop-gap? Hell, it's basically the textbook definition of the phrase, and unless you're a mega die-hard Gamma Ray devotee, it'd be best advised to spend your hard-earned cash elsewhere.
Highs: Need to own everything Gamma Ray has ever released? Well, this shouldn't be an exception.
Lows: Almost everything, the whole thing is basically redundant.
Bottom line: It's best to save your hard-earned cash for their next proper album.

Almost like something from Quantum Mechanics, it is still not clear what 'Project Passport' exactly is. It could be a Scientific Experiment, an Art Project, (graphic design or a performance piece), a Protest or.... just the Biggest Mistake Ever....
It all started as a Twinkle in my minds-eye a number of years ago but started to take form towards the end of 2011.
As it is still 'In Process', only time will tell...
(i'M afraid it Might Become a Rather Large Page....)
Introduction: (or clickit to skipit)
I do like reading weird stuff to pass the time. Here is some stuff that got me thinking...
UNIVERSAL DECLARATION
OF HUMAN RIGHTS.
( what?)
Dec·la·ra·tion / dkl-rshn/ Noun: In the law of evidence, a statement or narration made not under oath but simply in the middle of things, as a part of what is happening. Also, a proclamation.
" UDHR is a declaration adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 10 December 1948. While not a treaty itself, the Declaration was explicitly adopted for the purpose of defining the meaning of the words "fundamental freedoms" and "human rights" appearing in the United Nations Charter, which is binding on all member states The Declaration represents the first global expression of rights to which all human beings are inherently entitled. It consists of 30 articles which have been elaborated in subsequent international treaties, regional human rights instruments, national constitutions and laws. The International Bill of Human Rights consists of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and its two Optional Protocols. In 1966 the General Assembly adopted the two detailed Covenants, which complete the International Bill of Human Rights; and in 1976, after the Covenants had been ratified by a sufficient number of individual nations, the Bill took on the force of international law. "
Ratification: The confirmation or adoption of an act that has already been performed
http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/ratification
A ratification can be an adaptation? Check this:
it 'took on the force' of International Law. Does that mean it is now more a Proclamation than a Declaration?
Proc·la·ma·tion (prkl-mshn): A document published to the inhabitants of an area that sets forth the basis of authority and scope of activities of a commander in a given area and which defines the obligations, liabilities, duties, and rights of the population affected.
This sounds like a terribly one sided thing... (luckily 'everyone is equal under the law') "scope of activities of a commander" ... Hmmm... Ah, Of Course! "the population affected" Maybe this is a good time to check the 'Person' page if you haven't done so already... (The more i read, the more i spot those little clues that tell me these things are true... The other pages that are of interest in connection with this page are 'Civilization' and 'Sovereignty' )
But anyway, back to the 'Declaration' It's Common Sense that you can't Declare on Someones Else his behalf. The Declaration is something the 'declarer' does want to be known, and therefore, in a way, what it wants to be known for;
'I declare my candidacy' for instance...
A declaration does not necessarily have to be true, it can be subjective...
'I declare the experiment a success' for instance...
In an article about "The Sovereign Military Order of Malta" ( a Sovereign entity that isn't a country), i found the next statement:
"Wengler—a German professor of international law—addresses the sovereign status in his book Völkerrecht, and rejects the notion that recognition of the Order by some states can make it a subject of international law. " (source)
Quick backstep to a line in the introduction of the UDHR;
".... which complete the International Bill of Human Rights; and in 1976, after the Covenants had been ratified by a sufficient number of individual nations, the Bill took on the force of international law. "
It appears to be that ' International law' is based upon 'Treaties','Declarations' and 'Conventions' and the like. These, as i understand it now, are all forms of Contracts. According to West's Encyclopedia of American Law, edition 2;
" A treaty is an agreement in written form between nation-states, (...) that is intended to establish a relationship governed by International Law. It may be contained in a single instrument or in two or more related instruments such as an exchange of diplomatic notes. Various terms have been used for such an agreement, including treaty, convention, protocol, declaration, charter, Covenant, pact, act, statute, exchange of notes, agreement, modus vivendi and understanding. The particular designation does not affect the agreement's legal character. " [emphasis added]
Definition: des·ig·na·tion (dzg-nshn) n. [...among other...] A distinguishing name or title
In 'Contract Law', there is something called 'The doctrine of privity'.
"The doctrine of privity means that a contract cannot, as a general rule, confer rights or impose obligations arising under it on any person except the parties to it." (The doctrine of privity (GH Treitel, The Law of Contract, Page 442)
It goes against All Common Sense to assume that if 2 parties made a contract and than 'recognise' an outsider party as similar, a peer or equal , and therefor consider this party to be bound to the contract... NO, this 3rd party has to agree! I think this is what Professor Wengler is saying. There is of course an other situation, if this 3rd party is under contract with one of the original 2. (think contractor and sub-contractor, but than still... Does the sub-contractor face the Same Obligations as the main contractor?)
i Think Professor Wengler's concept here is based upon Exactly the Same Principle as the relationship 'we' have with 'Our Authorities'; it's Voluntarily!!! and, to be even more Blunt to 'the Establishment', if you Claim the Moral High-Ground, you have to stick to Your Own Rules... 'Member States' create and/or subscribe to Rules of Conduct, with Benefits And Obligations. 'The People' than have the Choice if they want to live Under those Rules Or Not...
My (oh so limited) Understanding of it all; According to those 'Proposed' Rules themselves, they can Not Be enForced, unless the Human Being in question is a 'Subject' (that is a Citizen, National, Resident, Tourist, Refugee, Asylee or Alien, Taxpayer, Pasenger, Customer, Aplicant, Student... all those things you Register or, even better, Apply for using your 'Personal Details') ...
Have a look here:
Back to the DECLARATIONS
Just some 'Random' Bits, with some added emphases ;
Article 12. "No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation.

Cov·e·nant /kv-nnt/ Noun: An agreement, contract, or written promise that frequently constitutes a pledge to do or refrain from doing something.
ICCPR is a multilateral treaty adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 16, 1966, and in force from March 23, 1976. It commits its parties to respect the civil and political rights of individuals, including the right to life, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, electoral rights and rights to due process and a fair trial. As of October 2011, the Covenant had 74 signatories and 167 parties
(So these are rights NOT granted to only Human Beings, but SPECIFICLY for Citizens,Subjects...)
1. Everyone shall have the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion. This right shall include freedom to have or to adopt a religion or belief of his choice, and freedom, either individually or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in worship, observance, practice and teaching.
2. No one shall be subject to coercion which would impair his freedom to have or to adopt a religion or belief of his choice.
3. Freedom to manifest one's religion or beliefs may be subject only to such limitations as are prescribed by law and are necessary to protect public safety, order, health, or morals or the fundamental rights and freedoms of others.

co·erce /(k-ûrs)/tr.v. To force to act or think in a certain way by use of pressure, threats, or intimidation; compel.
and, last but not least, the legal-dictionary definition of Beleve: Mental reliance on or acceptance of a particular concept, which is arrived at by weighing external evidence, facts, and personal observation and experience.
exactly what i'm doing here...
INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON
ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS.
1. All peoples have the right of self-determination. By virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social and cultural development.
(But of course it says 'peoples' and not 'people'...)
peoples: The aggregate of the individuals who comprise a state or a nation.
In a more restricted sense, as generally used in Constitutional Law, the entire body of those citizens of a state or a nation who are invested with political power for political purposes (the qualified voters).
(So it appears that, as a legal terms, 'peoples' is a synonym for 'person'... )
stat·us: the standing, state, or condition of an individual; the rights, obligations, capacities, and incapacities that assign an individual to a given class.
What about: the European Union ?
Treaty on European Union
(Maastricht, 7 February 1992)
TITLE I – Common Provisions Article A
By this Treaty, the High Contracting Parties establish among themselves a European Union, hereinafter called 'the Union'...
The Return of the Doctrine of Privity...
(GH Treitel, The Law of Contract, Page 442)
"The doctrine of privity means that a contract cannot, as a general rule, confer rights or impose obligations arising under it on any person except the parties to it."
According to West's Encyclopedia of American Law, edition 2;
" A treaty is an agreement in written form between nation-states, (...) that is intended to establish a relationship governed by International Law. It may be contained in a single instrument or in two or more related instruments such as an exchange of diplomatic notes. Various terms have been used for such an agreement, including treaty, convention, protocol, declaration, charter, Covenant, pact, act, statute, exchange of notes, agreement, modus vivendi and understanding. The particular designation does not affect the agreement's legal character. "
So than; A 'Treaty' is Nothing but a Contract with a fancy name...
There appears to be something wrong here. If a Government of a Nation that calls itself "Democratic" ,(in the general understood 'of the people, by the people, for the people' way) includes certain acts in it's laws because it is bound to do so 'By Contract', isn't it 'per Definition' no longer Democratic?
A 'Maxim of Law.'
"Derivativa potestas non potest esse major primitiva".
The power which is derived cannot be greater than that from which it is derived.
A Law Dictionary, Adapted to the Constitution and Laws of the United States. By John Bouvier. Published 1856.
This however is possible in, or more precise under, a Parliamentary or 'representative' democracy...
Sorry, a line in Dutch....
Artikel 120 van de Grondwet:
"De rechter treedt niet in de beoordeling van de grondwettigheid van wetten en verdragen". (aHum...?)
(it's about Judicial review , the doctrine under which legislative and executive actions are subject to review (and possible invalidation) by the judiciary. A specific court checks the acts of the state against a higher authority (such as the terms of a written constitution). Judicial review is an example of the separation of powers in a modern governmental system (where the judiciary is one of three branches of government). In the Dutch Constitution this concept is specifically 'outlawed')
Time to start 'PROJECT PASSPORT!'
and, to make it more interesting:
I'm going to do this right, use the 'Scientific Method'
( Reminder of the steps:
"A) Formulate the question. Describe (measure, classify) your subject.
B) Write a hypothesis, a testable statement describing the possible answer to the question.
C) Do the experiments to prove the hypothesis, and to prove the opposite of it.
D) Make conclusions and either publish results or jump back to the second step and adjust the hypothesis.
E) After all this and an article is published, the idea is for other scientists to be able to repeat the experiments in order to re-confirm or educate. " )
A) The Question:
Why do i need permission to go to an other country? A country is Nothing Else than some lines a bunch of people i don't know drew on a map!
Why do i need to go through all the hassle to get a state issued legal document called a passport to travel?
Surely, if i have to fill in a piece of paper to give to 'the government' so that they can copy that to another piece of paper....
i just LOVE those Law Maxim's...
"Nemo potest facere per obliquum quod non potest facere per directum."
No one can do that indirectly which cannot be done directly.
Bouvier's Law Dictionary Unabridged, 8th Edition, pg. 2147
or, even stronger; anOther 'Maxim of Law.'
"Quod per me non possum, nec per alium."
What I cannot do in person, I cannot do through the agency of another.
[Bouvier's Law Dictionary Unabridged, 8th Edition, pg. 2159]
B) the
The Reason a 'state' can Restrict "cross border" movement of 'Men' is because this Man Himself Grands Jurisdiction to the state in question. By Refusing to do so and claiming "Sovereignty" no lawful argument Can be brought forward to stop a Human Being as an inhabitant of planet earth from going Wherever the Hell he Pleases...
C) the Experiment
First i have to Design the Experiment... (C.1)
"An experiment is a methodical trial and error procedure carried out with the goal of verifying, falsifying, or establishing the validity of a hypothesis. Experiments vary greatly in their goal and scale, but always rely on repeatable procedure and logical analysis of the results."
I obviously need some things for this experiment; To start with, a Man and a Border.... I also need to consider what can go wrong during the experiment and try to limit the chances for error... Very likely, the guy's with the Guns at border control might not all be so Open to Discussion...
AHH!!! STOP THE PRESSES!!!
i'M Using the Scientific Method! It also Asks Me To:
"step C: Do the experiments to prove the hypothesis, and to prove the opposite of it".
so the A Question Has To Be Asked the other way around as well!!!
(following that line of thought:)
There is of course a 'General Accepted Hypothesis', being: a State HAS the RIGHT to stop me from Crossing 'Their' borders.... my MAIN QUESTION HAS TO BE: NOT; I have a Right to Cross this 'Border' without interference, BUT: (to the Guy with the Gun) Why do You think YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO STOP ME?
'I; the Sovereign', will have to 'Issue' my Own Passport...
it's like the Saying "a Picture paints a thousand Words"sothat, when the 'Guy with the Gun' questions Anything, there's Something to break the ice...
(i need to Record my Findings as well...) hmm One Step at the time...
Experiment Design Decision One: Find Subject; 'the Man'
Favourable Characteristics: Human. Experienced Multiple Border Crossings. Capable of Abstract Thought. Not affright to make a Total Arse of Himself. Willing to be responsible for own actions. Someone i can convince "this is going to work out Fine..." Hmmm... Has to be a Big Idiot... Has to be Me...
(Note to self: Need to Record my experiment as well... how can i record what happens...)
Experiment Design Decision Two: another subject? 'the Border'
Well, i'm born in the territory commonly known as Holland... I'm also the "bearer" of an Official Dutch Passport... Best reason; My whole blood Family lives there! I think the border of "the Kingdom of the Netherlands" is the chosen one!
(Note to self: i Need to Record my research as well... how can i record what happens?...)
Experiment Design Decision Three: Get Object 'the Passport'
(this is going to involve 2 steps; Research and Graphics...)
C.1.1) Research: Because i Am Sovereign, i Can issue my Own passport. If the Dutch State than not "recognize" this passport....
... it should be their problem and not mine...
(Note to self: i Need to have Proof of my investigation as well...
..If only i could film it or something...)
Since this passport is Solely for the Benefit of the 'Guy with the Gun',what are the Things they may give as a Reason to Doubt the passport?
So a quick In Between ThoughtChapter on Possible Hurdles.. (C.1.1.½)
Expected Reaction One; "This is not a passport!"
Definition: Passport
legal: A document that indicates permission granted by a sovereign to its citizen to travel to foreign countries and return and requests foreign governments to allow that citizen to pass freely and safely.
With respect to International Law, a passport is a license of safe conduct, issued during a war, that authorizes an individual to leave a war-ring nation or to remove his or her effects from that nation to another country; it also authorizes a person to travel from country to country without being subject to arrest or detention because of the war. thefreedictionary.com
So a passport is a 'document'...
Is there a restriction on who can create a 'legal Document'?
Definition: Document
Legal: A written or printed instrument that conveys information.
The term document generally refers to a particular writing or instrument that has a bearing upon specific transactions. A deed, a marriage license, and a record of account are all considered to be documents.
When a document is signed and the signature is authentic, the law accurately expresses the state of mind of the individual who signed it.
A false document is one of which a material portion is purported to have been made or authorized by someone who did not do so. It can also be a document that is falsely dated or which has allegedly been made by or on behalf of someone who did not in fact exist.
A private document is any instrument executed by a private citizen. A public document is one that is or should legally be readily available for inspection by the public, as a document issued by Congress or a governmental department.
Judicial documents include inquisitions, depositions, examinations, and affidavits. thefreedictionary.com
To Make Sure, some words from the Above definition Re-Defined in Legal dictionary:
legal instrument noun (law) a document that states some contractual relationship or grants some right [syn: legal document]par·tic·u·lar (pr-tky-lr, p-tk-) adj.1. Of, belonging to, or associated with a specific person, group, thing, or category; not general or universal individual noun autonomous being (autonomous (Independent), adjective detached, exxsting as an independent entity)
OK, it can be both Written or Printed but to be a document (and Not an instrument) it should be Made Particular by Stating it's a Passport. It should be Signed, an as long as it has been Made and Authorized by Me, it's Not false. Also;
i Must Exist...
(Of less importance, but nice to know; Private documents Exist!!! i Wonder what a 'private citizen' is though...)
(private citizen is not available in the legal dictionary. Try: general English dictionary and thesaurus)
Anyway; I Can Make a document!!! Maybe the crunch is in the 'skill' or 'language'?
Let's check "Legal writing"
Legal writing is a type of technical writing used by lawyers, judges, legislators, and others in law to express legal analysis and legal rights and duties.
i Reckon i can be an "and others in law", especially since 'all Men are Equal under law'...
Maybe it's "Legal drafting"
Legal drafting creates binding, legal text. It includes enacted law like statutes, rules, and regulations; contracts (private and public); personal legal documents like wills and trusts; and public legal documents like notices and instructions. Legal drafting requires no legal authority citation, and generally is written without a stylised voice.
I reckon a Private Individual is according to law Capable of Creating a "Legal Document" hiphip hooray!!!
So, will it Be a passport?
The way i Understand it now, As long as it 'States' that it is a passport, Is 'Signed' and is 'Issued by a Sovereign',
it indeed Is a passport...
Expected reaction Two; "This passport is not valid!"
Definition of VALID: Of binding force. A deed, will, or other instrument, which has received all the formalities required by law, is said to be valid. (blacks law dictionary.)
So, in Legal Terms, it's the Same Question as 'Is This a passport'.
In spoken language (googeling "validity of passport", it seems to be so if the Current Date is between the "Date of Issue" and "Valid Until" ... that Can Be Arranged...
Expected reaction Three; "This passport is False!"
Back to: Definition of Document;
"A false document is one of which a material portion is purported to have been made or authorized by someone who did not do so. It can also be a document that is falsely dated or which has allegedly been made by or on behalf of someone who did not in fact exist."
So that seems to be Easily Disputed, As long as the document is made by Me (and i Don't Hide that) and the fact that i Exist, it Should be AllRight...
Expected reaction Four; "You can't Enter Without a State Recognized passport!"
Can't 'The State' look up the Definition of Passport and than Recognize one?
Or would it be: "You can't enter without a Recognized State's passport!" (a Nationality...)
Ok, the reaction has to be; Why? We're Back where we Begun... (if you didn't skip the intro) :
the UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS. Art 20.2
Article 20.2. "No one may be compelled to belong to an association."
Legal: Association n. any group of people who have joined together for a particular purpose, ranging from social to business, and usually meant to be a continuing organization. It can be formal, with rules and/or by-laws, membership requirements and other trappings of an organization, or it can be a collection of people without structure
so This is the foundation, or the A Question; May i be 'compelled to Belong to a State'
Also, is the 'State' and the 'Territory' the same thing? i'M starting to believe the state only occupies the territory, but according to their own rules, can't claim 'exclusive rights' to do so.
Same Question, different Starting point:
Is it possible to 'Enter' a state's 'Territory' without automatically falling under the Jurisdiction of That state?
Ok, although that is a 'Page in itself', it seems to be that there are possibilities for that to happening described under International Law..
So, may 'I; Sovereign' be denied entry?
Back again to where we Begun: the UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS. Articles 9 and 13...
Especially if i'm on a Family visit. (art 12)
Article 12. "No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."
Think there's enough Here to Seriously Falsify the General Accepted Hypothesis... Think i should Start to Consider the Passport itself... Sńit, Two parts again: contents and actual Design of the thing... What Needs to be in a Passport
So a quick In Between ThoughtChapter on Compulsory contents.. (Point C.1.1.⅔)
a look at the definition again, there are 2 parts;
"A document that indicates permission granted by a sovereign to its citizen to travel to foreign countries and return... "
as 'I' am claiming back my 'Sovereignty', i don't think i have to ask myself permission to travel... hereby 'I declare' this point irrelevant...
"... and requests foreign governments to allow that citizen to pass freely and safely."
Considering that apparently the UDHR is (international) 'Law', and the 'Legal Definitions' of both the 'Passport' and the 'Document' are in a way also part of the 'Law', putting them together shows there has to be a major difference between 'a Human' and 'a Citizen'... (do i repeat myself by telling you to check the 'Person' and 'Civilization' pages?)
i Think the easiest way is to have a closer look at some 'legal' passport to see what they have in common...
"The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) issues passport standards which are treated as recommendations to national governments. The size of passports normally comply with ISO/IEC 7810 ID-3 standard, which specifies a size of 125 × 88 mm (4.921 × 3.465 in). This size is the B7 format.
The standard passport format includes the name of the issuing country on a passport cover, a national symbol, a description of the document (e.g., passport, official passport, diplomatic passport), and -- if the passport is biometric -- the biometric passport symbol. Inside, there is a title page, also naming the country. This is followed by a data page, on which there is information about the bearer and the issuing authority, although passports of some European Union member states provide that information on the inside back cover. There are blank pages available for foreign countries to affix visas, and to stamp for entries and exit. Passports have numerical or alphanumerical designators ("serial number") assigned by the issuing authority."
so; On the Cover:
All passports seem to have have the word 'passport' on the cover. This makes sense as it is in accordance with the definition of a document that tells us that in order for it Not to be an instrument, it should be Made Particular by Stating what it is Supposed to Be... It is (only) a passport if it says "Passport" on the front...
All passports seem to have have the Issuing 'Authority' on the cover... That will be 'The Sovereign Man Me' than ...
Most passports seem to have have some kind of 'Coat of Arms' and Motto.... I can do that!
That will cover my cover...
On the Inside:
Passports seem to contain information in more than one language. Normally English, French and the Sovereign's native in question... The purpose of the passport is to ask "to pass freely and safely."
Most of these statements are by or on behalf of the highest authority of the state in question.
Maybe i should go one step higher...
( in the paragraphs below, i replaced my real name with [...] )
in Dutch: In God's Naam, verzoekt de Sovereine Mens [...] alle overheden van bevriende staten aan de eigenaar van dit paspoort vrije en ongehinderde doorgang te verlenen alsmede alle hulp en bijstand te verschaffen.
in English: In God's Name the sovereign Man [...] requests all authorities of friendly powers to allow the owner of the presented passport to pass freely without let or hindrance and to afford the bearer every assistance and protection which may be necessary.
in French: Au Nom de Dieu, l' Homme Souverain [...], prie les autorites interessees de bien vouloir lui accorder libre passage sans entraves ni retenue, de meme que l'aide et la protection dont il aurait besoin.
A 'State issued' Passport of course always contains 'your' Personal Details...
Mine can't.... In stead of being 'personal' the details given should enforce the notion that i am a 'Human'
It's heading will be; "Identificerende Gegevens van de Mens". This is in Dutch ( as this is the 'Chosen Border' and my Mothers tongue), and it roughly translate as Identifying property or attribute of the Man.
It will state my 'roepnaam' (what my Mum called me, comonly known as) and not a 'voornaam' (first name).
It will also state my 'doopnaam' (baptised as) and not 'voornamen' (given names), my 'familie naam' (family name) and not my 'achternaam' (surname), my 'geboorte plaats' (place of birth) City-Province-Country, my 'Afkomst' (heredity) as 'het nederlandse volk' (the peoples of the netherlands), my 'geboorte datum' (date of birth) as 'hoogst waarschijnlijk' (almost certainly) day-month-year*, my 'geslacht' (sex) 'Man' (male) and my 'lengte' (hight) 1.82 meter.
On top of this, it will have a Document Number: SME001, a 'Document gecreëerd op' (Date document creation) entry; 11/11/2011, a 'Geldig tot' (valit untill) entry; 10/11/2021, a 'Uitgevende instantie' (Issuing authority); 'De Soevereine mens [....]' ('The Sovereign Man [....]') Of course it will also have my photo and signature. To remove all Doubt, as a 'Grand Finale', the statement; "Geldig voor alle landen. Valid for all countries. Valable tous les pays" and a series of numbered pages ready to receive visas!
Most of me
* I am unable to be certain about my date of birth, as I was unable to read and count at the time; "The hearsay rule is a rule of evidence which prohibits admitting testimony or documents into evidence when the statements contained therein are offered to prove their truth and the maker of the statements is not able to testify abouit in court."
Passports always seem to be Property of the Issuing State, with the citizen being 'the bearer' Mine should be, and stay, mine and therefore this will go on the back cover (once again in dutch/english/french):
Dit Paspoort is het eigendom van [...]. Het mag slechts met zijn toesteming ter beschiking van anderen worden gesteld. Het aanbrengen van wijzigingen of aanvullingen zonder zijn toestemming is strafbaar. Vermissing van het Paspoort door diefstal of anders zal bij de plaatselijke politie aangegeven worden.
This Pasport is the property of [...]. It may only be pased to others with his permision. To alter or to add information without his permision is punisable. Loss through theft or any other reason will be reported to the local police.
Ce passeport est la propriete de [...]. En aucun cas, il ne peut etre utilise ou altere par qui que soit, sans sa permission. La perte ou le vol seront reportes a la police locale.
© [...]. Alle rechten voorbehouden. All rights reserved
All this in combination with a bit of (open source) software, a trip to the shop for some nice paper and a bit of experimenting with the printer to make things line up nicely results in something thats visible in the header photo...
We are still somewhere in step 3 of the scientific method; I have researched what exactly a passport is and what mine should contain. I have decided where to do the experiment. I have done the graphic design and printed it. The next step:
I feel most things are prepared! As i brainwaved before, the need to prove the 'opposite' is not needed as i 'personally entered' the territory of 'the Kingdom of the Netherlands' on more than one occasion using the state issued passport...
The only thing that is not 100% of my liking is the lack of recording opportunity i have.
I have decided not to let that stop me and just need to make notes as i go along .
The date, Wednesday 30/11/11. Fly to Shiphol, Amsterdam airport.
i Landed around 11am. As i walked up to 'Passport Control' i spotted of to the right a Information Window of the 'Koninklijke Marechaussee' (Royal Military Police), and realized that this was the First Point where i could contact a 'Spokesperson Of The State' after leaving the plane. Apparently there were 3 basic questions that needed to be ask...
The window was manned by a friendly young woman. After some initial pleasantries;
The first question was regarding my status at that particular location. (after leaving the care of the 'common carrier', the airline, and having the status of 'passenger', and before identifying myself at the point of 'entering the Kingdom of the Netherlands', for instance as a 'citizen' or a 'tourist'). She was not sure but explained to me "i was on 'international territory" and "therefore would 'fall' under International Law". I asked if there was anybody who could give more clarity on this and was informed about a specific office. This was on 'the Plaza', on the other side of passport control with, according to her, no opportunity before that.
The second question was more straight forward, and so was the answer;
Q: If i have more than one passport am i free to those which one i use to enter? A: Yes, you are.
The third was the killer:
Q: What is the route to the railway station for Sovereigns that does not lead through Passport Control?
A: ..... pardon? ... Q: If ,for instance, a 'Head of State' or 'Royal' lands at Shiphol, where do they go? Do they have to show their passport? A: they don't land here, they normally go to Zestienhoven... (Rotterdam The Hague Airport)
At this point i showed her My Passport.
Q: What about this one? A: This is not a passport that is recognized by the state and therefore no permission would be granted to enter. Q: under what law would i be denied to enter? A: The " vreemdelingenwet" (= 'aliens Act')
The conversation with her continued quite pleasantly. We spoke about being a 'Burger', the Germanic concept similar to that of 'citizen' or 'civilian'. Unfortunately i had no way of recording this conversation but nothing really shocking revelations were made during this. As the window was part of an 'open plan' office, some of the other officers came over, looked at the passport and commented. One thing that stood out for me was the remark made by the women, regarding questioning why are we a citizens, that she "never thought about these things before..." (quote of course translated) Surely these 'armed professionals' are schooled if not educated ... ( Is 'Border Control' a 'Specialisation'? )

Soevereiniteit
In Nederland aanvaardden de gewesten in 1588 zelf de soevereiniteit. Dit betekende dat zij voortaan de volheid van bevoegdheden zouden hebben in de staat en zij aan niemand onderworpen zouden zijn. Na de Franse Tijd komt dit begrip terug bij koning Willem I. Hij aanvaardde in 1813 de soevereiniteit 'onder voorwaarde ener wijze constitutie.'
In het Orderecht is de soeverein van de orde het hoogste gezag binnen een Ridderorde. Niet iedere orde kent een soeverein, de Nederlandse en Belgische koningen zijn grootmeester van hun orden. De Britse koning is de soeverein van een aantal orden en laat zich daarbij bijstaan door een grootmeester. In andere orden van Groot-Brittannië of landen van het Gemenebest is de koning zèlf grootmeester en ontbreekt een soeverein. Otto aartshertog van Oostenrijk is "hoofd en soeverein" van zijn Orde van het Gulden Vlies.
In Nederland is bij wet geregeld dat het Grootmeesterschap van de ridderorden is opgedragen aan de Koning. In de Huisorde van Oranje is vastgelegd dat de grootmeester zelf zijn opvolger benoemt.De Huisorde van de Gouden Leeuw van Nassau kent twee grootmeesters; de beide chefs van de Ottoonse en Walramsche takken van het huis Nassau. Op dit moment zijn dit de Koningin der Nederlanden en de Groothertog van Luxemburg
"Zelfbeschikkingsrecht houdt eigen keuze van normen en waarden met betrekking tot het eigen leven in, ook al kan dat een afwijking betekenen van in de samenleving van dat moment gangbare normen en waarden. Een in de samenleving als positief
beleefde waarde kan door een individu negatief worden beoordeeld en omgekeerd. Zou men in de samenleving geldende waarden moeten volgen, dan kan niet van zelfbeschikking worden gesproken. Het wezen van de vrijheid is dat men deze zelf inhoud kan geven." (H.J.J. Leenen . Handboek gezondheidsrecht 2000, p. 33.)
