Let me remind the reader that The Pontiff is neither a UK citizen nor resident,  and this gives him about as much right to change UK law as Mickey Mouse.  Under his watch – and those of his predecessors – sexual abuse in Catholic schools and institutions was tolerated and widespread. The question has to be asked :  is it really in the public interest to ask every man, woman and child of Britain to pay £20m for a Papal visit, when only 9 percent of Britons are Catholic? (Source: BSA Survey 2007).

Would our government be so generous to throw this much money at an Islamic leader coming here to preach equally intolerant messages?  No, of course not!  Such double standards will impair our ability to defend human rights overseas and at home.  If we provide equal rights to everyone, but grant immunity in special cases like these, where will it end?  How can we refuse when other religions start demanding exception from arbitrary sections of British law they happen to disagree with?  We are not a theocracy, and can afford nobody to be above the law.  You may even find the army or perhaps the navy saying they too should be exempt from equalities laws under the banner of national security.  Perhaps schools, scout leaders and other public institutions would follow – after all, your children’s safety is important to protect too, right?

No dear friends, we cannot cave in to such fascism, even when it wears a friendly and familiar face.  If we surrender one inch of our equality laws, we will have betrayed the single most important value of our society.  This week, the National Secular Society launched an online petition to the Prime Minister to allow the pope to pay for his own visit.  Within hours, thousands of signatures had been collected, and just before midday Friday the website went offline due to the flood of traffic it received.  At the time of writing, more than 16,500 signatures have been collected.  Allow me to use this opportunity to read a section from one of my favourite poems, written by Pastor Martin Niemöller:

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Equality is an all-encompassing idea. We cannot pick and choose which parts we agree with and which parts we do not simply to satisfy a few.  The moment we do, we may as well rip out the rest of our secular freedoms and put our monarchy back in full charge of all UK affairs.  Religious freedom exist under secular law, but freedom of belief cannot be achieved under theocratic rule – we cannot  afford to tolerate intolerance.

We must extend freedom, where such freedom does not curtail the freedom of others.  In cases where these freedoms are mutually exclusive, the freedom of the many must outweigh the freedom of the few. This is the very nature of democracy and the reason the Pope should pay for his own visit.

How Does Encryption Work?

The basic principle is simple. You take some data input and perform a series of transformations on it to produce a hash. The important thing about the hash, is there is no way of working back to find out what the original input was.

Let’s suppose your website admin password was ‘redqueen451‘, the MD5 sum hash for this is ‘8aa8d1d84b9f7ab18c78b69dbf6103dc‘ . Each time you log in, the computer takes your input and applies the same tranformation to see if it ends up with ‘8aa8d1d84b9f7ab18c78b69dbf6103dc‘ also. The safety of this mechanism relies on the fact that there is no easy way to work out what the original input of a hash was.

Therefore, the danger of having two different inputs which happen to generate the same output (known as a ‘collision‘) pose a mortal danger to any cipher.

Why MD5 Is In Danger And What This Means For The Web

Well, the trouble with being a popular algorithm is that everyone is obsessed with you! Hans Dobbertin identified collisions in 1995, which started to raise concerns. Plenty of people had a go. In 2005 Xiaoyun Wang was able to produce two full PostScript documents which generated the same hash.  But I feel the death blow was dealt on the 30th of December 2008, when a group of researchers announced they had generated a VeriSign certificate authority certificate which appeared to be valid when checked with MD5.  This allowed them to create as many SSL certificates as they liked, all of which would appear to be perfectly legitimate VeriSign-issued ones! VeriSign swiftly moved and began using AES (The Advanced Encryption Standard) which handles up to 256-bit encryption.

Not content that MD5 was already dead and buried, people began compiling MD5 Rainbow Tables, lookup tables that will give you possible input to generate a particular MD5 hash. In fact some people have already tried to integrate this within a neat MD5 hash reversal web service.

Needed : A Solution For The People

The days of MD5 are most definitely numbered and finite.  Being broken and having so many hands cracking it means that it can never again be used for SSL, nor within any kind of secret service institution nor anywhere that 100% security is required.  For you, me and our websites these weakness does not pose any immediate danger in most cases, but we cannot wait for the rainbow tables to be filled.  Holes have already been picked in SHA-1 (a likely candidate billed to replace MD5) and there will come a time when at least one possible input will be known for every possible combination of digits in a hash sum!  At the very least, this will open up entirely new ways hackers might exploit security loopholes. We must not wait until that happens before finding a suitable replacement for the masses!

Today I stood and basked in the awesome glory of the Manchester Small Scale Experimental Machine (SSEM) nicknamed the ‘Baby‘. Built 1948, it was the first ever electronic computer system in the world and has been on display here at the Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.  I was dismayed to learn that the computer is being packed away in to storage, but the kind staff allowed me up close to pay my respects and bring you these great photos.

Programming the Small Scale Experimental Machine

Having spent much of last weekend writing my first programs for this great ancestor of modern computing, I find renewed appreciation for the technology that is available to us now. I have written code for a few computers, including some home consoles like the Super Nintendo, but nothing could have prepared me for the Manchester Baby.

Why? Well, firstly, it has a humble instruction set consisting of 7 valid instructions, with only ONE arithmetic operation – subtract! In order to add two values, a programmer would need to use the form: -(-x-y).  Software multiplication can be achieved by creating a loop which repeatedly ‘adds’ in this manner – don’t even ask me about divide!

Another exciting fact about the SSEM is it’s memory store.  By today’s standards it would be considered backward.

How Binary Numbers are Usually Stored

How SSEM Stores Binary Numbers

No, I mean that it’s memory is literally a mirror image of how we might expect today’s computers to store binary numbers, with the least significant bit (LSB) is on the left and the most significant bit (MBR) on the right!

The memory store itself is made up of 32 rows of 32-bit words, giving the SSEM 128 bytes (0.125 KB) of total memory for both program and data. Not a lot when you compare it to computers available today.  To put everything back in perspective, the SSEM executes 1,100 instructions per second. Yet my Apple iPhone used to photograph this exhibit can execute 620,000,000 instruction per second and has 8,000,000 KB of storage and (AND!) … it fits right in my pocket.

How To Run Virtual SSEM Programs At Home

[ See The Source Code For This Example Here ]

But you don’t have to travel all the way to Manchester to use the SSEM.  David Sharp has developed a fantastic Java based SSEM simulator which you can run directly through your browser.  Not only does it include the imagery of the original machine, but includes several working program examples and the ability to import/export memory snapshots and assembly code.

Conclusion

All in all it was a very humbling experience. I am told that the Baby will go back on display in about 7 months and I strongly urge others to see this exhibit. While the Small Scale Experimental Machine may not be all that impressive technically, it provided a solid blueprint upon which all modern computers are built.  In doing so, it leaves a timeless mark in the computer world that will live on beyond it’s physical components.   These principles seem far removed when I’m sat at my desk working with luxuriously high-level language like PHP. But sometimes it helps to remind myself of the sheer toil and pain it has taken to get to this stage.

Jack Straw and Nick Griffin

When Nick Griffin appeared on Question Time on Thursday night, it became painfully clear the BBC and (more specifically) David Dimbleby had made a huge mistake. No, believe it or not they were quite right to feature Nick Griffin as a panellist – they only delivered what the majority of the public wanted. To do otherwise would be to cave in to state-controlled censorship which would be healthy for nobody.

However, for any kind of debate to take place, their must exist a two-way dialogue. Ideas must be exchanged, counter-points raised and evidence presented on both sides to cut through the beef of the argument and allow the viewer to arrive at a conclusion. This was the usual format of Question Time. However, the BBC conspiracy that took place on Thursday the 24th of October fell woefully short of this. They bullied and harassed Nick, firing barrage after barrage of questions at him, allowing him to address less than 1 in 10 of all statements fired at him.

He was allowed to speak around three times in total, quite different treatment than any other politician had received previously. This was no meaningful debate, but a verbal firing squad. ‘Sure’ you might say: ‘We treated Nick Griffin quite differently because he is unlike any other politician that had been invited on the show previously’, but by admission of a secret political agenda for inviting him, not only do you rob the show of any power to genuinely expose Nick and his views, you will also force more moderate people to see the BNP as victims of an unfair system.

Nick was very evasive, contradicting himself and giving some rather odd answers on a few occasions.  I couldn’t help but feel, that they should have given him more rope with which to hang himself.  I was also a little disappointed in Jack Straws performance, not only did he come across as weak, but he refused to accept that Britain had any kind of immigration problem. The immigration battle-cry is one that has won the BNP significant political ground in recent times, and it’s denial is likely to invite further progress by the BNP – at the cost of Labour votes.

I suppose I write this to help the reader see that the extreme-left are the ones actually responsible for facilitating the BNP’s rise to mainstream politics. The demonstrations we saw outside the BBC buildings represent left-wing extremists forcing their views upon other citizens, telling them what they can or cannot watch. Perhaps ironically, they become the very fascism they claim to fight.  In doing so, they will alienate themselves from the moderates of Britain and risk further promoting the BNP as a mainstream political party.  Ultimately, it was the viewer to whom the greatest disservice was delivered.  Nick Griffin now calls for it to be done again, what will your next moves be?

I cannot pretend to know everything about Aspergers Syndrome, but I know enough to understand how much more difficult this ordeal will be for Garry and how much more sickening it must be for his mother. My blood boils to think that our country would willingly abandon one of it’s more vulnerable members in this way.

Last night, Garrys mother Janis Sharp was quoted saying in an interview:

When we vote someone in to protect our rights, we don’t expect this to happen.

French stand up for the French, Americans stand up for Americans.

No other country in the world would so readily offer its citizens to the US as sacrificial lambs to safeguard a ‘special political relationship’.

To use my desperately vulnerable son in this way is despicable, immoral and devoid of humanity. I’ve fought for five years to protect him and I’m not about to give up.

My heart goes out to her because I realised that this is no ordinary extradition, but that Gary simply got too close to the truth. That the same secret international clique who maintains control over Britain and American politics, the same clique that lead us to War in Iraq, this same clique who organize extraordinary rendition, while our politicians tell us no such thing exists, this same clique who arrange cover-ups of excessive expenses in by British Members of Parliament, that this very same clique that is in place to keep people like you and me from realising what is actually happening, is now coming for Gary.

Were this any ordinary situation, the logical course of action would be to get Gary on the payroll of Scotland Yards Computer Crime Division.

But then, this is no ordinary extradition.

Avast! It’s Monkey Island time again, with Michael Wharton and Roger Davies at the helm, bringing you the latest Tales of Monkey Island – Lair of the Leviathan Walkthrough. As always, keep your seat upright, store all luggage in the overhead lockers, and beware!! Thar be spoilers ahead!

After the initial cutscene, walk towards the camera, towards the settlement and talk to De Cava. Give him the locket and talk to him some more, walkthrough to Winslow who is taking care of Morgan Le Flay. After telling Winslow you need Morgan to pass as your wife, pick up her wrists to feel her pulse, then pick up her sword, then pick up her boots. Walk around to the back of the ship, and climb the mast to the crows nets and pick up the earwax. Use it on Morgan to wake her up, take her to De Cava and tell him you met through work, answer his question by remembering things about Morgan Le Flay.  Walkthrough to the stomach and talk to De Cava’s crewe.

Lair of the Leviathan Walkthrough – In the Belly of the Manatee

Tell Morgan to go on a RECON mission with Noogie, tell her to interrogate, then test the grip, then check for weapons with him (first dates, huh?).  Challenge Bugeye to a face-off, after losing, pickup the picture of Guybrush that Morgan dropped (near the bongo area). Walkthrough to the area with the three weird tubes, checkout the figurehead of the scary monkey on the ship, use your hook hand with the treasure chest in that area to find Murray the Talking Skull inside! Talk to the bar pirate Moose, propose a toast to any occasion, and while he is drinking, use the sword with Santino, switch Murray with his skull.

Talk to everyone saying “ARRR!” and you will learn a new pirate face from each one. Then, go up to De Cava, who will ask you to get him a drink and give you his mug. Talk to the bongo player Noogie, and ask him to play something with a higher tempo. Walk to the pool of bile using the weird tubes in the ground and use the mug with the bile. Use the mug of bile with the painting, to reveal yet another scary face to add to your repertoire. Repeat this process to get another mug of bile, use this with the clogged tube (this will unclog it). Go through the tube and open the iron monkey pick up the torture manual inside. Walkthrough to De Cavas camp, wait for him to put down his glasses and pick them up. Combine the glasses with the Eye of the Manatee, and give them back to De Cava. Give him a mug of bile. Use torture manual (you picked up from the iron monkey) with the new members manual. Next, give the disguised torture manual to Murray. This will guarantee you his vote (and of course Mooses!). Go to Bugeye and challenge him to a face off again, try to remember which faces you’ve used, and which faces he’s used. Avoid using any part of a move he’s used and you will win. Then ask him to call a vote. You will now receive the Cochlea of the Manatee.  Walkthrough to your ship and round the back, pick up the Seahorse head. Walkthrough back to the crows nest and replace the Cochlea in the area marked wound. Talk to Le Flay as you run around until she agrees to help, remember to give her sword back. (cutscene)

Head back to the boat by going to the anchor. Go up to De Cava and read the crew’s files, copy the face of Noogie’s biggest fear ‘The Nun’, use the face with Noogie and he will tell you that he doesn’t have the tongue of the Manatee. Talk to Bugeye and he will immediately tell you he doesn’t have it either! Ask Morgan to borrow her sword, pick the fish flapping around on the deck. Use the sword with Murray and Moose will tell you that he had the Tongue of the Manatee (and that it is – in fact – in the belly of the Manatee you were in). Go back to De Cava at the wheel and look at the locket. Use the golden spanner on the wheel in the middle, then use the picture of Guybrush that Morgan dropped earlier. Push the button for an out of body experience!

[As the Voodoo Lady] : Use the Tarrot Cards on the table in front of you. First, order them Marquis, the Adventurer, then the Voodoo Lady and press the bell. (cutscene).

Use the Manatee Lax with the bile pool, then use the Tongue of the Manatee on the Giant Manattee. When talking to the female Manatee, try to answer her questions as well as possible (this may take a few tries, but you can always try again!). Look though all the phrases, to find one that suits the best. When the Manatees go off on their date, dive back down to the cave, and grab Esponge Grande. Back on your ship, you get acosted in another cutscene!

When in the cage, give morgan her sword. Try to grab the rope above you, this will lower your cage and raise Morgans so that Morgan can now cut the rope with her sword if you talk to her. While being shot at, click on the mast. When they fire, it bounces back, and takes out their canon. Quickly use the seahorse head with the cannon and fire!  This brings us to the end of the Lair of the Leviathan walkthrough.
