ast month, when all was quiet
on the streets of London,
something magical hap-
pened. In one of the many offices of
Whitehall, just off the corridors of
power, a small group of people put
meaning to the term: ‘bipartisan’. I
am of course talking about the deal
struck among the three main parties
on the subject of press regulation.
This deal was one that no one
thought would happen, especially
after David Cameron left discus-
sions; but more importantly it was a
deal that only few can make sense
of. So what is this agreement and
why should we take any notice of it?
The Leveson report was set up fol-
lowing the phone hacking scandal,
where newspapers purposely hacked
into people’s phones to listen to
their messages, breaking the privacy
of hundreds of celebrities and ordi-
nary people. Lord Justice Leveson
sat through hours of witness ac-
counts from the victims, the politi-
cians and some of the perpetrators.
Following the evidence, Leveson pub-
lished a report suggesting how such
grievous invasions of privacy could
have been allowed in the media in-
dustry, and how they could be pre-
vented from happening again. It was
apparent that a new regulatory body
was needed to oversee the print me-
dia, Lord Justice Leveson proposed:
A regulator independent from poli-
ticians and journalists, backed by
legislation.
Legislation that enshrined the duty
of the government to protect free-
dom of speech.
A system allowing victims to settle
cases out of court.
Regulation from Ofcom for the
newspapers that would not join the
regulatory body.
Following the report, the three main
political parties largely accepted the
proposed measures, with only this
key difference: While Labour was
willing to implement legislation for
an optional press regulator; the Con-
servatives were unwilling to do the
same. They stated that legislation
was likely to limit free speech. This
claim is not one without reasoning -
legislation would give future govern-
ments the power to amend its mean-
ing and intentions in order to impose
censorship, but this small disagree-
ment has led to months of discus-
sion.
Until, finally, at the last moment, all
three parties agreed on the following
proposals:
An independent regulator estab-
lished by royal charter, the same
process that set up the BBC.
Changes to current laws to ensure
that amendments to the charter
could only be made with a 3/4s
majority in the House of Com-
mons.
While these proposals are a welcome
compromise to many, including the
group “Hacked Off”, though not so
much the print media, who have now
rejected them, you may be asking:
“What’s the point in reform? It
doesn’t have any effect on me.” The
whole point of this deal is protecting
free speech, while protecting us from
it. A new regulatory body should be
able to define between what’s in the
public interest and what a gross in-
vasion of privacy is, ensuring that we
will be able to enjoy a balanced and
objective news agenda for years to
come.
What do you think of the pro-
posals? Join the discussion:

ou may well agree with the
above statement without
even knowing what I’m talk-
ing about. Recent events support
this statement even further. One of
those events is the Eastleigh by-
election (which I will touch on later),
but the one I want to focus on is
what has happened in Italy. For
once, I’m not talking about Silvio
Berlusconi, I am in fact on about
how an Italian comedian managed to
get his party 25% per cent of the
vote in the recent election to find the
next Prime Minister of Italy. But how
can someone whose job is to be fun-
ny not make a laughable politician?
And what on earth is happening to
politics in general? I looked into the
situation to see if respectable de-
mocracy could be salvaged.
The man in question is Beppe Grillo
(above), the leader of Five Star Move-
ment, a political party against every-
thing politics. The 64 year old can’t
actually run for office because he
was once convicted of manslaughter.
However, he is easily the most influ-
ential man in the party. He makes
radical speeches all over Italy, ver-
bally attacking corruption and the
effects of recession. He also has a
hugely popular blog, which he uses
to name corrupt politicians and
cause controversy. One of his posts
included him stating that priests
should be allowed to have children
“so they don’t touch other people’s.”
All this lead to his party getting a
substantial chunk of the vote. But
why would people vote for such an
unlikely candidate?
To answer this question, I divert your
attention to Eastleigh. After Chris
Huhne stepped down as MP when he
was accused of forcing his wife to
take his speeding points, a by-
election was held to find a replace-
ment. In a shock to many, UKIP re-
ceive 27.8% of the vote-not bad for a
party who, until recently, were
branded as “a bunch of loony rac-
ists”! The reason behind this success
is much disputed, but in my opinion,
the result was a “protest vote”. Peo-
ple were so angry with Chris Huhne’s
dishonesty, they wanted to kick
‘normal’ politics up the rear. It’s the
same case in Italy. With all the scan-
dal around Silvio Berlusconi still
ringing in people’s mind, this shouty
funny man gave them a voice. A
voice that said no to corruption and
lies.
But let’s be honest, do the Italians
really want a comedian running their
country? And do we (in the UK) want
to put our economic fate in the
hands of a party that think “a five-
year freeze on immigration” is a
good idea? The simple answer is no.
So, my advice is to trust the stand-
ard politicians. You managed to be-
lieve in them at constituency level,
so why not national? If we regain our
hope in them, we will prevent elec-
toral results that really would make
politics ridiculous and useless…

With a comedian winning 25% of the vote in Italy, how do we prevent politics
becoming a laughing stock?

ast month, youngsters were
found to have made pretty
high purchases in the App
Store on iOS devices. This has
caused very high bills for their par-
ents to pay-one child spent more
than £1000 on purchases in the App
Store.
So, how does this happen? Well, a
game is downloaded onto an iOS de-
vice from the App Store with a
parent's permission since the game
is labelled as free. However, some
apps have in game money that can
be used to progress or gain an ad-
vantage. If you don’t have enough in-
game money, a message will appear,
redirecting you to the app store. In
the store you can pay with real mon-
ey to get extra coins in the game so
that you can easily buy new levels or
items quickly.
A child can ask a parent's permission
to buy the lowest amount of coins
which is usually about £0.69. The
parent will type in the password and
then the purchase is made. Then, if
you were to click on a different
amount of coins, the game will in-
stantly pay. In this way children can
buy very high amount of coins which
can cost more. Before they know, the
bill can go into the thousands.
A five year old boy called Danny had
accidently spent £1,700 on in app
purchases. He thought it was free
and asked his dad to type in the
password. The next day emails came
to confirm the purchases and the
parents were shocked at what had
happened. Danny said "I just clicked
on it because it said it was free". Ap-
ple has confirmed that the money
will be refunded.
So how can we stop this? The answer
to that is on the device. All iOS devic-
es have parental controls to control
what children can do. You can ac-
cess it by opening settings on your
device, then select General and scroll
down to Restrictions. Tap on Re-
strictions and select 'Enable Re-
strictions'. You will now be asked to
create a four-digit passcode. Enter
the passcode again for confirmation
and then scroll down to 'Allowed
Content'. There are many restrictions
available here, you can tap the
switch next to 'In App Purchases' to
disable in app purchases totally or
tap 'Require Password' so that a
password is required for every pur-
chase. Both of these can solve the
problem.
This shows what can happen by giv-
ing children a device with an app
store. So watch out and make sure
to activate restrictions.

ichard III (1452 – 1485) was
King of England from 1483
until his death in 1485 in
the Battle of Bosworth Field. He was
the last king of the House of York
and the last of the Plantagenet dyn-
asty. His defeat at Bosworth Field,
the decisive battle of the Wars of the
Roses, is sometimes regarded as the
end of the Middle Ages in England.
He is the subject of the play Richard
III by William Shakespeare. When his
brother Edward IV died in April
1483, Richard was named Lord Pro-
tector of the realm for Edward's son
and successor, the 12-year-old King
Edward V. As the young king trav-
elled to London from Ludlow, Rich-
ard met and escorted him to lodg-
ings in the Tower of London where
Edward V's brother Richard joined
him shortly afterwards. Arrange-
ments were made for Edward's coro-
nation on 22 June 1483, but before
the young king could be crowned, his
father's marriage to his mother Eliza-
beth Woodville was declared invalid,
making their children illegitimate
and ineligible for the throne. On 25
June, an assembly of lords and com-
moners endorsed the claims. The
following day, Richard III began his
reign, and he was crowned on 6 July
1483. The young princes were not
seen in public after August, and a
number of accusations circulated
that the boys had been murdered on
Richard's orders, giving rise to the
legend of the Princes in the Tower.
Shakespeare presented Richard the
third as the blackest villain of all
even though he reigned for only 2
years and died in a civil war. People
say he was the worst man who ever
lived and some might be right with
the fact that apparently he killed his
nephews (his recently deceased
brother’s sons), He stole the crown
and died wailing at a horse. During
his reign his son and wife has died
making his once ruthless lifestyle
worse. Many members of the Yorkist
establishment rebelled against Rich-
ard.
So the conclusion is that Richard
was the blackest of all criminals but
his reign was filled with sadness and
hatred filled from close relatives
deaths and rebellions from so-called
close friends. He took it out on the
world around him. Lately his body
has been found after many years of
searching because he was never giv-
en a proper burial so they found him
under a car park in Leicester.

ith the election and in-
auguration of Pope
Francis in the news, I
think it’s about time we started dis-
cussing religious music (some of
which happens to be the nicest stuff
around).
Probably the earliest music that we
can replicate today, with a few ex-
ceptions, is that performed within
Roman Catholic masses during the
Medieval Era. The Gregorian Chant,
named after (Pope) Saint Gregory
the Great, was the most common
kind of ‘song’ you would have heard
as it became (in the 11th Century)
the official music of the Roman Cath-
olic rite. It is very simple kind of mu-
sic, with no instrumentation or har-
mony, and was sung by the monks of
the Order of Saint Benedict eight
times a day! One of the most well-
known composers is a woman, Saint
Hildegard of Bingen: a remarkable
legacy in consideration of the long
opposition to the education of wom-
en in our history. We are still able to
hear Gregorian chants sung all
across the world in Roman Catholic
churches.
Eventually, the Gregorian Chant was
replaced with more complicated and
intricate music. Harmonies were in-
corporated into a style known as
counterpoint and the familiar round
gained popularity. The earliest
known type of this style of music is
‘Summer is Icumen In’ - a song writ-
ten in the Wessex dialect for six voic-
es. It is interesting to hear this song
performed, not only because it is
very beautiful but also to note how
much our language has changed.
Unfortunately, almost all the music
from this period is of unknown au-
thorship.
By the early 16th century, however,
the Renaissance was gaining pace
across Europe and music started to
become very sophisticated. The mel-
odies were more inventive and the
organ provided accompaniment.
‘Spem in Alium’, by the English com-
poser and Catholic recusant Thomas
Tallis, is a sublime Latin motet
(choral song) which is very popular
and is sung exquisitely by the Tallis
Scholars - no surprises there! Wil-
liam Byrd, another recusant whose
reputation and position as organist
of the Chapel Royal protected him,
was a contemporary of Tallis and
created some equally heavenly mu-
sic. His ‘Mass for Five Voices’ has
the marvellous clarity that character-
ises this period of music. Locally, the
South West Chamber Choir and
Counterpoint both perform this style
regularly and to a professional
standard. If heard in Buckfast Ab-
bey, it is easy to imagine the monks
singing the same songs hundreds of
years ago.
In the Vatican, too, composers were
producing some delightful pieces.
Scarlatti and Palestrina were Italian
Renaissance composers whose repu-
tations went before them. Both of
their versions of ‘Exsultate Deo’ are
magnificent. The pinnacle of this era,
however, must be Gregorio Allegri’s
‘Miserere mei, Deus’. This song was
transcribed entirely by memory from
Mozart when he was only 14 years
old, having heard it twice! This was
because the Vatican - in much the
same sense of mystery as enshroud-
ed the recent conclave - forbade the
publication of any music performed
there. Mozart’s eagerness to have a
copy on paper is testament to its
unparalleled beauty. There is a solo
for a treble which soars up to the
most spectacular high C - a feat
mostly beyond the reach of adult
sopranos.
The Pope Emeritus, Benedict XVI, is
very fond of music - particularly Mo-
zart - and has released an album!
Music has always been at the heart
of the Roman Catholic faith, and re-
mains so to this day. The faith has
shaped the music, and the music
has shaped the church, and conse-
quently European history. In order to
understand our musical roots, we
must examine our religious musical
tradition. By doing so, we can dis-
cover some of the most glorious
pieces ever sung.

How London’s risen to fame
ver the past 20 years,
London has risen to be
dubbed ‘The World’s
Architectural Playground’. The
likes of Rafael Vilñoy, Lord Foster
and Richard Rodgers have all
chosen at least one place within
the thirty-two boroughs to design
and build their architectural mas-
terpieces. Most recently, in
Southwark, Renzo Piano’s ‘The
Shard’ was completed. It is cur-
rently the tallest building in West-
ern Europe at 310m (1017ft) and
92 floors, of which 72 are habita-
ble. Along with this, there are
several other major projects pres-
ently under construction, both
across the Thames and over in
Canary Wharf. These have all
been in the pipeline for around
ten years, which shows that this
is not a slow process for a con-
sumer who requires housing or
office space.
Across the river, in The City of
London, the next two major pro-
jects are nearing the topping out
phase. These are 20 Fenchurch
Street (160m | 36fl | dubbed the
Walkie-talkie) and 122 Leaden-
hall Street (225m | also known
as The Cheesegrater). In my opin-
ion, these are the most controver-
sial projects to take place in Lon-
don to date. The bulging upper
floors of the Walkie-talkie put
most people off of it, but in fact,
it is a triumph of concrete, glass
and plastic. The sweeping white
plastic fins climb the entire struc-
ture on the east and west eleva-
tions. Once complete, the upper
floors will be open to the public,
with a restaurant and a ‘Sky-
Garden’.
The Cheesegrater, on the other
hand, is a celebration of steel
and curtain wall façade. At 225m
and 48 floors, this will be the sec-
ond tallest structure in the
Square Mile. It is entirely clad in
two layers of glass, and consists
Ryan Trower 9S

of a seven floor atrium and eight
‘mega levels’ (a framework of
seven floors) surrounding a cen-
tral strongbox and external yellow
lift shaft. This is my personal fa-
vourite project in London at the
moment, due to its complex steel
lattice which culminates into a
simple wedge shape.
There are also a few major pro-
jects springing up out of the ur-
ban sprawl, like in Vauxhall-where
the ‘Marker Pen’ (1 St Georges
Wharf) is approaching the top-
ping out phase. At 180m and 50
floors, this will become the tallest
entirely residential building in the
world. It will not be connected to
the mains electricity however, as
a wind turbine has been installed
upon the roof. This project has
been greatly delayed, following
an unfortunate helicopter crash,
which damaged one of the tower
cranes working on the site.
In Canary Wharf, there is no real
construction boom occurring the
moment, although there is one
smaller project under construc-
tion. 25 Churchill Place (130m |
23fl) is the first project to occur
in the business hub since 2004.
This has no real significance in
London, but some merit can be
issued for its unique diagonal
sweep on each corner.
So what does the future hold for
architecture in London? Well, we
can expect to see several new
clusters forming in Vauxhall,
Blackfriars, Victoria, Southwark
and Paddington, and several
smaller projects dotted around
the area. But the economic situa-
tion doesn’t bode well for some
major projects; already, two have
been put on hold because they
have run out of money. Never the
less, architecture in London, for
now it seems, is booming…

oday, mobile apps are at
their height. In June last
year, the Apple App Store
reached a staggering 30 billion
downloads! To put that into per-
spective, there are about 7 billion
people on earth today. As a result
of this massive trend in software
engineering, more and more devel-
opers are ditching the computer
software and swiftly learning new
programming techniques for mo-
bile devices.
Many popular games including: An-
gry Birds, Temple Run and Need
for Speed all took months to build.
Programming, or developing, is
the creation of apps, it's achieved
by writing strings of code (lines of
text which computers interpret)
which all build up to make apps.
There are many different program-
ming languages, for example Apple
devices, like the iPhone and iPad
use a different language to Android
Phones and Tablets. There are dif-
ferent developers, all creating apps
for different platforms.
So, you want to create your own
app? Of course you do! You can
have your idea available to the mil-
lions of users who access the App
Store/App Market every day. So,
what are the steps to producing
your own app?

Learn how to develop and publish your own mobile App
Ideas! Brainstorm on a
piece of paper, or a blank
word processing document.
Build up your ideas by scribbling
some quick sketches of the differ-
ent screens you imagine your app
will have. You could do this in a
note board or on a white-board.
Don't forget to keep referring back
to these so you don't go off track
during development.
Get the tools and knowledge
you need. Of course, you'll
need the correct software! If
you're going to develop for Android,
then you can download the
'Android Developer Tools' from
their website or via a search en-
gine. If you want to get your App
on the Android Market, however,
you'll need to buy a £25 subscrip-
tion which lets you upload your
app and publish it to the world.
Software aside, you need to know
how to use it. As I mentioned
above there are many different
programming languages , for An-
droid I recommend 'Java'. You can
teach yourself using Youtube vide-
os and Online Forums. Be patient
with yourself and ask around when
you encounter any bugs. Twitter is
a great place as there are so many
experienced people! Feel free to
ask me questions regarding An-
droid/Java via @AlfieCarlisle.
Begin the development! You
know how to use the soft-
ware, you know the lan-
guage, you have a plan. Keep your
initial ideas close to hand and
keep referring to them.
Now's the time if you want
to... to publish your App!
Bear in mind that whatever
platform you've developed for,
you'll need to pay a subscription to
the developer section of the plat-
form's Market or Store.
Now, go ahead and create your
app. Keep persevering and use this
article to help you along the way! If
you need a beta tester (someone
who will practice with your app
until it goes live), or some assis-
tance, drop me a line, on Twitter
@AlfieCarlisle or via email!!
Have fun!

n 1973, the first hand-held mo-
bile phone was made by
Motorola, weighing around 1Kg.
Ten years later, the first mobile
phone known as the DynaTAC 8000x
by Motorola was officially sold to the
public. It’s one feature was to be
able to have and carry a device capa-
ble of calling other similar ones al-
most anywhere. Up until 1995, mo-
bile phones were big, bulky and con-
tained a long antenna at the top. It
looked very much like some Cordless
Phones in the earlier years of the
20th century. Then in 1997 and
1998, mobile phones got smaller.
Some lost their antennas while oth-
ers kept to a small one but offered a
wide range of colours.
Even though there was slow improve-
ment for the first two decades, there
was a drastic improvement in the
last. We now have phones being re-
leased into the market that could
potentially be a replacement for a
home computer, with longer battery
life and a much larger capability.
So I’ve asked myself: How did this
evolution take place? The answer lies
in the question itself. The word evo-
lution gets across the point of little
changes taking place to a species
over time to form something com-
pletely new. The reason that this
happens is so that the species will
survive. This is exactly what happens
with mobile phone companies. In
order to make the most amount of
money, they release phones of better
capability than before so that con-
sumers will buy their products. In
response, other companies fight by
doing the same. So, what were the
changes that took place?
Only in 1999, did mobile phones
start to lose the cordless phone look
and become compact as well as
lightweight. Then, a year later, the
world’s first touch screen phone was
introduced, showing evidence of
promising technology. Two years af-
ter that, colour and the use of cam-
eras became available on phones,
with the first camera phone by
Nokia. 2004-2006 were the years
when mobile phones started to trans-
form into something that should be
stylish and personal, as Motorola
and LG had shown. Sony also
launched their introduction of music
and memory card support in phones
as well through their Walkman
phone. Then, the Smartphones en-
tered the market as Apple’s first iPh-
one was released in 2007, being the
first phone to contain an operating
system (iOS). Since then, the word
mobile phone slowly changed into
Smartphone, introducing many fea-
tures such as GPS-System, Wi-Fi, HD
screen and many more.
Whether it was for money or not,
companies have clearly made some-
thing, such as performance, fea-
tures, better each time in the phone
market and this will continue in the
future when better technology is like-
ly be developed.

s the RBS Six Nations has
finished, I have decided to
look at who impressed me
from the four home nations. Wales
were crowned the winners after an
emphatic win over England, this left
England second. Scotland had a
good campaign, and Ireland were
thwarted by injury, so, by results
had a bad campaign, however they
were able to integrate young players
into the team. England and Scot-
land weren't attacking enough for
me though, because they kick too
much possession away. I would also
like to add that Ireland were the
only team to beat Wales. My predic-
tions were incredibly wrong, I shall
remind you of them:
1. France - ended up 6th
2. England - 2nd
3. Ireland - 5th
4. Wales - 1st
5. Italy - 4th
6. Scotland - 3rd
There will be around 37 players
picked for the squad. In the Front
Row, I believe Gethin Jenkins
(Wales), Rory Best (Ireland) and
Adam Jones (Wales) will be first
choice if no injuries take place. Jen-
kins was a great leader against Eng-
land, Jones has mastered whoever
he came up against in the scrum
and Best is a consistent hooker and
also gets involved with play. My sec-
ond choices for each position would
be Cian Healy (Ireland), Ross Ford
(Scotland) and Dan Cole (England).
In the Second Row, Alyn Wyn Jones
(Wales) is so influential in all the
'Dirty work' Wales have to do, and
his partner, if he is fit, will be Paul
O'Connell (Ireland) for he was a
great leader in the 2009 tour and
has experience. Backups will in-
clude the colossal Richie Gray
(Scotland), Courtney Lawes
(England) and Possibly Jim Hamil-
ton (Scotland).
In the Back Row, I reckon it will be
Welsh whitewash of Sam War-
burton, Justin Tupuric and Toby
Faletau. These guys have played
together consistently for the last
year and have always stood out
amongst the other back rows. Oth-
ers to go on the tour could be the
likes of Dan Lydiate (Wales) if he is
fit, Sean O'Brien (Ireland), Tom
Croft (England) and possibly Chris
Robshaw (England).
The preferred Half-Back partnership
for Warren Gatland will be Ben
Youngs (England) and Johnny Sex-
ton (Ireland) because they both
want have an attacking flair for the
game. Owen Farrell wouldn't make
my Lions tour because he can only
kick, he doesn't do enough rugby in
hand for me. Instead of him I would
bring in Dan Biggar (Wales), who
has just grown and grown in his role
as fly-half. As replacement to Ben
Youngs I would bring in Mike Phil-
lips (Wales) or Greg Laidlaw
(Scotland), although probably Phil-
lips because Laidlaw is good for
Scotland mainly because of his
kicking and he wouldn't be kicker
on the Lions.
In the Centre, I would reunite the
pair from 2009 with Jamie Roberts
(Wales) with Brian O'Driscoll
(Ireland). Although I hope this isn't,
it would be a great way for O'Dris-
coll to finish off his career. Roberts
is a massive tackler and does all the
work in the rucks. Others that will
go on the Tour could be Brad Bar-
ritt (England), Luke Marshall
(Ireland) and Jonathan Davies
(Wales).
On the Wing, I think George North
(Wales) and Tommy Bowe (Ireland)
would be favourites if they stay fit.
Others picked will be Simon Zebo
(Ireland), Alex Cuthbert (Wales) and
Tim Visser (Scotland).
Finally at Full Back, Leigh Halfpen-
ny will be first choice (Wales), Rob
Kearney (Ireland) and either Alex
Goode (England) or Stuart Hogg
(Scotland).
There will be:
14 from Wales
10 from Ireland
7 from England
6 from Scotland
I reflected on the Six Nations to
make my decisions and you may be
asking, why so little English play-
ers? This is because England have-
n't played proper rugby since beat-
ing Scotland in the first game. They
were outstanding against New Zea-
land, but we haven't seen that per-
formance since. What happened in
Cardiff was going to happen sooner
rather than later. Wales, Ireland and
Italy were the three exciting teams
in this tournament because they
came to play rugby.
