Enumerable#Map/Select and it's Practices
There are several ways to iterate over elements in Ruby and it's best to get to know which ones to use along with the proper practices. The following are two different methods that I use frequently to get the job done.
Enumberable#Map
Map is probably the most common of the two because of it's simplicity and versitility. Map performs an action on each collection element, however, the original collection is not modified. This is what the destructive .map! is for. Below is an example of how map can be used.
array = [1,2,3] array.map {|x| x += x} #=> [2,4,6] # But array still equals [1,2,3]
In the following example, we have established an array that contains the elements 1,2,3. Then, we use the map method to iterate over each element that we have named x. We then pass a block of code to map and tell it that we want to add each x element with x, so what this will return is [2,4,6], but the original array will still be [1,2,3] if called upon. If we wanted to change the underlying array, we would use the .map! destructive method and the return would be [2,4,6] and so would the array if called on again.
Let's try another example. This time we want to pass a block to the array and gather all the elements that equates to truthy values.
array = [1,2,3] array.map {|x| x >= 2} #=> [false, true, true]
Wait, what happened here? We iterated over all the elements of array and said we want x if it's greater than or equal to 2. Weren't we supposed to get [2,3] as a return? Well, no. Map gathers all elements to modify them. In this case, we are not modifying the elements of the array, we are simply saying we want only the elements that equate to true when passed. This is what .select is for.
Enumerable#Select
So let's take the previous example and try it with select:
array = [1,2,3] array.select {|x| x >= 2} #=> [2,3] #=> array still equals [1,2,3]
What select does is iterate over each element like we did with map, but returns a collection for which the given block, x >= 2, returns a true value. Just like map, this returns the new values but does not change the underlying collection.

Overview
The Bafiktuy Intelligence Directive (BID) was the Imperium’s covert espionage and “dirty tricks” organization. If the Empiror wanted it done and prefered nobody found out about it, the BID is involved. While being the “official” covert organization, it still involved itself in its historic profitable enterprises. This allowed it to function without needing to appear in any governmental budgets.
History
The BID’s history began during the early years of the the First Decline and throughout the decline was known as the Bafiktuy Executive Decisions Committee. It was founded by a powerful corporation as a corporate espionage organization. During the Krezil Stock Market Crash, the corporation went bankrupt. Hostile takeovers resulted in the corporation being split into various companies and sold. The BID was not officially on the books, so the “Firm” (as it likes to be called) established itself as a secret mercenary espionage organization.
During the years leading up to the Imperium, the BID was covertly working for so many different organizations that it was frequently spying on its clients for other clients. This access to information only helped to make them more powerful. They also were involved in “hostile” corporate and other organization takeovers, assassinations, and sabotage.
They helped serve the Imperium early on in helping to drive a hermit insane and compel him to form the Alaerian Cult. It is surmised that their torments helped to fuel the need for an Imperium. While he was spouting off about the Great Satan, the pro-Imperial factions were lobbying for controlling “unstable” forces within the Republic. Eventually, the time arose for them to turn off their psychological operation. They captured their tormented puppet and tortured him to death. Unfortunately, they had not planned on creating a martyr.
Organization
The BID’s structure is true of many covert organizations. Their exact structure is unknown and hotly debated, as are their numbers.
Management
The “Board” was a small group of leaders who guide the organization’s overall operations. The exact number of “Board Members” was never accurately documented, but the Library of Karnomin† had files that suggested the number was between seven and thirty. Speculation suggests that the number may have been based on the number of worlds within the Imperium–one Board Member per system (planet or colony station). The assumption here is that a “godfather” controled a planet or station and runs his organization similar to the legendary Mafia of ancient Earth.
From there, there was a second echelon of cadre (called “Executives”) who helped keep the various sub-organizations organized, under control, and working. Some of these cadre had direct communication with their Board Member, while others may have run other Executives. There were some Executives who have never met another Executive or a Board Member, but have communicated only via dead drops, etc. Those “Dead Executives” were recruited into the organization and managed to be promoted ahead of their recruiter; sometimes at the untimely demise of the recruiter. There are even rumored Executives who operated totally autonomously of the BID for many years before the were “returned to the fold.”
Cells
The basic sub-element of the BID was the cell. A cell comprised between four and six operatives of varying skills. Typically, only one or two members of a cell knew of any other BID operative or executive. The cells tended to be organized by specialty. Some were designed to function as couriers, others as financiers, weapons and logistics, espionage, sabotage, smuggling/piracy, combat and enforcement. The cells themselves tended to operate fairly autonomously, but with rather clear marching orders from above.
Couriers, Smugglers, etc. These cells tended to smooth the flow of commerce in one way or another–legal or not. At one time they had enough combat space vessels to rival proper governmental navies, but were obviously never organized well enough to work collaboratively, except for the Witi Emplaser Incident when the BID sought to subdue a government during the First Decline.
Financiers either worked as liaisons between the BID and their various clients, or worked to acquire funding via quasi-illegal to illegal methods, running the gambit from fake charity organizations (including soliciting funds for various factions of the Alaerian Cult) to kidnapping. At least one rumored story involved a finance cell that had managed to kidnap and recieve payment for that hostage, only to be rooted out by another Finance cell working with an Enforcement cell, who collected the reward. In the end, the BID earned both ways.
Enforcement cells were the internal security of the BID. Many times they were used to control or eliminate rival organiation operatives, but were just as often employed against BID cells. This may be due to abject paranoia–assuming if an organization could be found by this hunter-killer cell, then it was ripe for exposure by a rival organization and should be eliminated.
Recruiting
The general consensus amongst researchers is that many operatives for the BID began working for the BID without knowing it. They might have had “a friend” who asked for a bit of help, or needed a bit of information. After they had been exploited enough times, then the recruiting cell might have decided to reveal itself to the dupe. Sometimes these recruits had been covertly bumped through several jobs (the BID has powerful friends) to train them for their eventual roll. There are no reports of an individual refusing recruitment, but it may be due to an otherwise accidental death preventing them from going public.
The personality type the BID recruited was as varied as one might expect of any corporation. There were some action junkies who just wanted a chance to do something exciting. But, through research points that there was no one personality characteristic that defined them as a whole.

Entity - Entity handle
Blend - Blend mode of the entity. 1: Alpha (default) 2: Multiply 3: Add |
|
Sets the blending mode of an entity. This blending mode determines the way in which the new RGBA of the pixel being rendered is combined with the RGB of the background.
To calculate the new RGBA of the pixel being rendered, the texture RGBA for the pixel (see TextureBlend for more information on how the texture RGBA is calculated) is taken, its alpha component multiplied by the entities/brushes (where applicable) alpha value and its color compentent multiplied by the entities/brushes colour. This is the RGBA which will then be blended into the background pixel, and how this is done depends on the EntityBlend value. Alpha: This blends the pixels according to the Alpha value. This is rougly done to the formula: Rr = ( An * Rn ) + ( ( 1.0 - An ) * Ro ) Gr = ( An * Gn ) + ( ( 1.0 - An ) * Go ) Br = ( An * Bn ) + ( ( 1.0 - An ) * Bo ) Where R = Red, G = Green, B = Blue, n = new pixel colour values, r = resultant colour values, o = old pixel colour values. Alpha blending is the default blending mode and is used with most world objects. Multiply: This blend mode will darken the underlying pixels. If you think of each RGB value as being on a scale from 0% to 100%, where 0 = 0% and 255 = 100%, the multiply blend mode will multiply the red, green and blue values individually together in order to get the new RGB value, roughly according to: Rr = ( ( Rn / 255.0 ) * ( Ro / 255.0 ) ) * 255.0 Gr = ( ( Gn / 255.0 ) * ( Go / 255.0 ) ) * 255.0 Br = ( ( Bn / 255.0 ) * ( Bo / 255.0 ) ) * 255.0 The alpha value has no effect with multiplicative blending. Blending a RGB value of 255, 255, 255 will make no difference, while an RGB value of 128, 128, 128 will darken the pixels by a factor of 2 and an RGB value of 0, 0, 0 will completely blacken out the resultant pixels. An RGB value of 0, 255, 255 will remove the red component of the underlying pixel while leaving the other color values untouched. Multiply blending is most often used for lightmaps, shadows or anything else that needs to 'darken' the resultant pixels. Add: Additive blending will add the new color values to the old, roughly according to: Rr = ( Rn * An ) + Ro Gr = ( Gn * An ) + Go Br = ( Bn * An ) + Bo The resultant RGB values are clipped out at 255, meaning that multiple additive effects can quickly cause visible banding from smooth gradients. Additive blending is extremely useful for effects such as laser shots and fire. See also: TextureBlend, EntityAlpha. |

We use CSS to style our HTML elements such as changing the font on a paragraph or adding a color to the background, but we can also use CSS to place elements on a page.There are four types of CSS positioning values: static, relative, absolute and fixed.
Let's take a look at an example. On the far left HTML column are four div elements; in the center is the CSS code styling those elements; and on the right are the elements rendered in their normal flow. The white div is the parent to the red and yellow div. The blue div rests below them in the normal flow.
When things are declared in the static positioning, they remain in the normal flow. Declaring the static position is the same as not declaring anything at all. HTML elements are rendered from top to bottom, and child and sibling elements sit inside the parent element when things are in static positioning. As you can see, we declared the static position and all the elements remain the same.
When we declare a relative position, elements remain in the normal flow but they are placed in relation to its position in the normal flow. By using the properties top, bottom, left, and right, we can move the element a certain number of pixels from the top, bottom, left or right of where it would normally be. Since the element is still part of the normal flow, it continues to work with the other HTML elements. Child elements will still be nested in their parent elements and elements will move from top to bottom, but we can specify values which will move the elements from their static position. In the example below, we declared a relative position for the red div and specified that it move 50px from the left.
Unlike static and relative positioning, absolute positioning takes an element completely out of the normal flow. Instead it is positioned relative to the browser window. We can use the properties top, bottom, left, and right to adjust the element's location on the page. Here we can see the red is taken out of the normal flow and positioned relative to the browser window, 90px from the bottom of it.
Similar to absolute positioning, the fixed position also takes the element out of the normal flow. However, it stays fixed to the position on the browser and does not scroll with the page. I'm sure you've seen websites with a navigation bar at the top that always remains there, even when you're scrolling through the page--that's an example of a fixed element.

Monitoring TIBCO EMS Appliance V2.1 and higher
If the EMS server is running on the TIBCO EMS Appliance hardware device V2.1 (or higher) the fault tolerant state is displayed in the FaultTolerantState column on the main EMS server display, the following values can be displayed:
- REPLICATING This is shown in normal operation when the server is replicating with its peer and the secondary is standing by for failover.
- STANDALONE This is shown when the server is running standalone with no fault tolerance in operation, e.g. the second appliance is down.
- SYNCHRONIZING(50%) This is shown when the server is synchronizing state with its peer. The overall sync progress % is shown.
- PAUSED This is shown when the server is paused.
- WAIT_FOR_PEER This is shown when the server waiting for its peer to come up.
- ERROR This is shown when the fault tolerant state cannot be determined.
Note; for correct monitoring status ensure you upgrade the EMS client library to V8.1 or higher.
To show normal operating state as FULLY_OPERATIONAL (instead of REPLICATING) to be consistent with software FT state monitoring set the ShowApplFullyOp to true in the gems.props file.
Monitoring TIBCO EMS Appliance V2.0
Monitoring EMS Appliance V2.0 is not supported in this release, please use Gems 4.1.

| JDOImplHelper.StateInterrogationObjectReturn | This is an interface used to interrogate the state of an instance that does not implement PersistenceCapable. |
| JDOImplHelper.StringConstructor | Construct an instance of a key class using a String as input. |
| PersistenceCapable | A class that can be managed by a binary-compatible JDO implementation must implement this interface. |
| PersistenceCapable.ObjectIdFieldConsumer | This interface is used to store fields from the Object id instance. |
| PersistenceCapable.ObjectIdFieldManager | This interface is a convenience interface that allows an instance to
implement both ObjectIdFieldSupplier and
ObjectIdFieldConsumer . |
| PersistenceCapable.ObjectIdFieldSupplier | This interface is used to provide fields to the Object id instance. |
| RegisterClassListener | A "RegisterClassEvent" event gets fired whenever a persistence-capable class
is loaded and gets registered with the JDOImplHelper . |
| StateInterrogation | This interface is implemented by a non-binary-compatible JDO implementation to provide state interrogation for non-enhanced persistent classes. |
| StateManager | This interface is the point of contact between managed instances of
PersistenceCapable classes and the JDO implementation. |
| Class Summary | |
|---|---|
| I18NHelper | Helper class for constructing messages from bundles. |
| JDOImplHelper | This class is a helper class for JDO implementations. |
| JDOPermission | The JDOPermission class is for operations that are reserved for
JDO implementations and should not be called by other code. |
| RegisterClassEvent | A RegisterClassEvent event gets delivered whenever a persistence-capable
class registers itself with the JDOImplHelper . |
This package contains the interfaces and classes used by JDO implementations.
JDO defines interfaces and classes to be used by application programmers when using classes whose instances are to be stored in persistent storage (persistence-capable classes), and specifies the contracts between suppliers of persistence-capable classes and the runtime environment (which is part of the JDO implementation).
The PersistenceCapable interface is implemented by all classes whose instances are to be made persistent. The implementation might be done by a combination of techniques, as determined by the JDO vendor:
The JDOPermission class is used to manage security controls on JDO implementations.
The RegisterClassEvent class and RegisterClassListener interface are used by JDO implementations that need access to metadata of PersistenceCapable classes.
The JDOImplHelper class contains helper methods for JDO implementations.

ESP32 touch button driver with async callback interface.
This configures the hardware capacitive touch input pins on the Espressif ESP32 platform for up to ten non-multiplexed buttons.
All of the operation takes place asynchronously via user-defined callback functions, which can be any type compatible with a C++ std::function object, i.e. plain global functions, static and non-static class or instance members or C++11 lambda expressions.
In contrast to the original Arduino touchRead() function, this implementation works reliably with stable, filtered sensor readout and without false triggers by random spikes/zeros from some hardware or API failure (See: https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=629955.0)
This API uses the ESP-IDF touch sensor interface, but does not register with the touch hardware ISR interface. Instead, this uses the continuous output from the ESP-IDF touch IIR filter using the filter_read_cb() hook from touch_pad.h. A freeRTOS timer (via Ticker.h) is then set up periodicly calling an event loop handler checking if any button threshold level is reached. If this is the case, it then calls the respective user callback. This has the advantage of not blocking the filter ISR for extended time.
The cycle time for the event checking loop can be configured in the header via dispatch_cycle_time_ms setting, the default is 100 milliseconds.
For the sensor input pins, please again note that the touch API uses a different numbering scheme than the standard GPIO numbers. E.g. touch button no. 0 is GPIO 4.

Shafqat Cheema refutes online reports about his son's death
by https://www.facebook.com/dunyanewsLAHORE (Dunya News) – Renowned actor Shafqat Cheema clarified the news circulating online regarding his son’s death and expressed that his son is alive and in good health.
Shafqat Cheema said that he was heartbroken when he saw the crowd outside his house claiming that his son, Sheharyar Cheema, has passed away in a car accident. “Without spending any moment, I called my son but he did not pick up, and at that moment darkness spread in front of eyes”, he expressed adding that no one can imagine what he felt at that very moment.
“Bol” actor shared that he thanked the Allah Almighty when he heard his son’s voice upon calling him again.
Shafqat Cheema criticized those involved in the fake news and asked, “What have I done wrong to someone? I have only one son and he is the light of my life” He asserted that it should not have been done.
Shafqat Cheema told the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) that fake social media accounts had also been created in his name while he has no account on Facebook and Twitter.


String
values.
The key identifies, and is used to retrieve, the value, much as a
variable name is used to retrieve the variable's value. For example,
an application capable of downloading files might use a property named
"download.lastDirectory" to keep track of the directory used for the
last download.
To manage properties, create instances of
java.util.Properties
.
This class provides methods for the following:
Properties
object
from a stream,
For an introduction to streams, refer to the section I/O Streams in the Basic I/O lesson.
Properties
extends
java.util.Hashtable
.
Some of the methods inherited from Hashtable
support the following actions:
Properties
object,
Properties
list,
Properties
object is empty.
System
class maintains a Properties
object that defines the configuration of the current working
environment. For more about these properties, see System Properties.
The remainder of this section explains how to use properties to
manage application configuration.
Properties
object over the course of its
execution.
Starting Up
Properties
object. Normally,
the default properties are stored in a file on disk along with the
.class
and other resource files for the application.
Next, the application creates another Properties
object
and loads the properties that were saved from the last time the
application was run. Many applications store properties on a per-user
basis, so the properties loaded in this step are usually in a specific
file in a particular directory maintained by this application in the
user's home directory. Finally, the application uses the default and
remembered properties to initialize itself.
The key here is consistency. The application must always load and save properties to the same location so that it can find them the next time it's executed.
Running
Properties
object is updated to reflect these changes.
If the users changes are to be remembered in future sessions, they
must be saved.
Exiting
. . . // create and load default properties Properties defaultProps = new Properties(); FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream("defaultProperties"); defaultProps.load(in); in.close(); // create application properties with default Properties applicationProps = new Properties(defaultProps); // now load properties from last invocation in = new FileInputStream("appProperties"); applicationProps.load(in); in.close(); . . .
Properties
object. This object contains the set of properties to use if values are
not explicitly set elsewhere. Then the load method reads the default
values from a file on disk named defaultProperties
.
Next, the application uses a different constructor to create a second
Properties
object, applicationProps
,
whose default values are contained in defaultProps
.
The defaults come into play when a
property is being retrieved. If the property can't be found in
applicationProps
, then its default list is searched.
Finally, the code loads a set of properties into
applicationProps
from a file named
appProperties
. The properties in this file are those
that were saved from the application the last time it was invoked, as
explained in the next section.
Properties.store
. The default
properties don't need to be saved each time because they never change.
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("appProperties"); applicationProps.store(out, "---No Comment---"); out.close();
store
method needs a stream to write to, as well as a
string that it uses as a comment at the top of the output.
Properties
object,
the application can query the object for information about various
keys and values that it contains. An application gets information from
a Properties
object after start up so that it can
initialize itself based on choices made by the user. The
Properties
class has several methods for getting property
information:
contains(Object value)
containsKey(Object key)
true
if the value or the key is in the
Properties
object. Properties
inherits these
methods from Hashtable
. Thus they accept Object
arguments, but only String
values should be used.
getProperty(String key)
getProperty(String key, String default)
list(PrintStream s)
list(PrintWriter w)
elements()
keys()
propertyNames()
Enumeration
containing the keys or values (as indicated by
the method name) contained in the Properties
object.
The keys
method only returns the keys for the object
itself; the propertyNames
method returns the keys for
default properties as well.
stringPropertyNames()
propertyNames
, but returns a
Set<String>
, and only returns names of properties
where both key and value are strings. Note that the Set
object is not backed by the Properties
object, so changes
in one do not affect the other.
size()
Properties
object so that they are saved when the
application exits (and calls the store
method). The
following methods change the properties in a Properties
object:
setProperty(String key, String value)
Properties
object.
remove(Object key)
Hashtable
, and thus accept key and value argument types
other than String
. Always use String
s for
keys and values, even if the method allows other types. Also do not
invoke Hashtable.set
or Hastable.setAll
on
Properties
objects; always use
Properties.setProperty
.

Man cut Virgin Mary Tree
Fresno Bee | Submitted by: Jube
Somebody cuts down a tree whose bark bore a vague likeness of the Virgin Mary, and who do the locals immediately blame? That guy who likes to drive around town with a big swastika flag waving from his pickup truck, of course. It does seem kinda fishy when that guy winds up on the local TV news announcing to the world that he considered the tree an eyesore. "We knew we were looking at him from the get-go. We were just hoping we could find something to charge him with," Lt. Robert Kandarian said. "Then he goes on TV and says he did it."

Man beheads daughter believing she was raped
Wire Services | Submitted by: Breadwinner
An Iranian decapitated his seven-year-old daughter after suspecting she
had been raped by her uncle. (Which, incidentally, turned out to be untrue.)
In an ironic twist, the murderer is effectively immune from the death penalty,
because only the father of the victim has the power to demand that sentence
under Iranian law.

Putin: Islamic tradition just a fad
Washington Post | Submitted by: Son of Benway
"Last week, President Vladimir Putin weighed in during a visit to this
city, a mixture of mosques and Orthodox churches topped with onion domes.
Putin scornfully dismissed the centuries-old Islamic tradition of head
scarves as nothing more than a "fashion" that might disappear in a few
years... "They say this is a fashion, and it will go away. This is absurd,"
said Adyatullina, 64, as she showed off souvenirs from her pilgrimage
to Mecca. "For a Muslim woman, this is like telling us to go outside

China pushing Trump to remove more tariffs ahead of trade deal: media
China is pushing U.S. President Donald Trump to remove more tariffs imposed in September ahead of the signing of the U.S.-China trade deal, Politico reported https://politi.co/2pG6B9M on Monday, citing three people familiar with internal discussions.
REUTERS: China is pushing U.S. President Donald Trump to remove more tariffs imposed in September ahead of the signing of the U.S.-China trade deal, Politico reported on Monday, citing three people familiar with internal discussions.
Beijing is pressing the U.S. to remove a 15per cent tariff that was imposed on roughly US$112 billion worth of Chinese goods on Sept. 1, but no decision has been made, Politico reported citing sources.
The Financial Times newspaper later on Monday also said the White House is considering whether to roll back levies on US$112 billion of Chinese imports including clothing, appliances, and flatscreen monitors, which were introduced at a 15per cent rate on Sept. 1.
Trump had said on Friday evening that negotiations about a "phase one" agreement were going well and he hoped to sign the deal with Chinese President Xi Jinping at a U.S. location when work on the agreement was completed.
U.S. and Chinese negotiators have been racing to finalize the text of a "phase one" agreement for Trump and Xi to sign this month, a process clouded by wrangling over U.S. demands for a timetable of Chinese purchases of U.S. farm products.

Hello there! This is a web application that takes your birthday details and calculates the day of the week you were born and then depending on your gender, outputs your Akan Name.
Akan is a Central Tano language and the principal native language of the Akan people of Ghana, spoken over much of the southern half of Ghana.About 80% of Ghana's population can speak Akan,and about 44% of Ghanaians are native speakers.It is also spoken in parts of Côte d'Ivoire.
Akan names are derived from Ghanian culture. Frequently in Ghana, children are given their first name as a 'day name' which corresponds to the day in the week they were born. Interesting! right?...to know your Akan name, fill out the below form!

Create a step-index node.
Create a variable to be used to index vars in the solution-step dimension. The name usually describes time, e.g. "t".
| [in] | name | Step dimension name. |
|
virtual |
Create a domain-index node.
Create a variable to be used to index vars in the solution-domain dimension. The name usually describes spatial dimensions, e.g. "x" or "y", but it can be any dimension that is specified at run-time, such as an index into a number of parallel problems being solved simultaneously.
| [in] | name | Domain index name. |
|
virtual |
Create a new miscellaneous index.
Create an variable to be used to index vars in the some dimension that is not the step dimension or a domain dimension. The value of these indices are normally compile-time constants, e.g., a fixed index into an array.
| [in] | name | Index name. |
|
virtual |
Create an equation node.
Indicates var point on LHS is equivalent to expression on RHS. This is NOT a test for equality. When an equation is created, it is automatically added to the list of equations for the yc_solution that contains the var that is on the LHS.
An optional domain condition may be provided to define the sub-domain to which this equation applies. Domain conditions are always evaluated with respect to the overall problem domain, i.e., independent of any specific MPI domain decomposition that might occur at run-time. If a domain condition is not provided, the equation applies to the entire problem domain. A domain condition can be added to an equation after its creation via yc_equation_node.set_cond(). See yc_equation_node.set_cond() for more information and an example.
A step condition is similar to a domain condition, but enables or disables the entire equation based on the current step (usually time) and/or other values. A step condition can only be added to an equation after its creation via yc_equation_node.set_step_cond(). See yc_equation_node.set_step_cond() for more information and an example.

Speech
Schools Minister talks about the EBacc and the role independent schools can play in the academies programme.

First, because we have much in common. As Minister of State, rather than Secretary of State, I too am a fully paid up member of the ‘deputy club’.
And secondly, because I’m a huge admirer of what the independent sector has achieved.
While the state sector has, over the last half century, fallen victim to the vicissitudes of passing educational fads and ideology, the independent sector has remained steadfast to high quality, well-rounded education based on clear evidence of what works best for children and young people.
HMC schools don’t just set the benchmark for every other school in this country, private or state, to aspire to.
Their excellence is recognised all over the world.
And as I saw on a visit to King Edward’s School in Birmingham in January, that success is rooted in independence, freedom and autonomy.
The independence to develop strong teaching and curricula which maintains academic rigour across the board.
To adopt high quality, internationally recognised qualifications like the IB or the iGCSE.
And to use outstanding artistic, sporting and pastoral provision, to create broad-minded young people, ready to thrive in an ever-changing world.
Our reform programme is based on the same principles of independence - that teachers and professionals know best how to run schools.
Everything we’re doing is about giving the best state schools the same autonomy to get on with the job - without Whitehall dictating day-to-day details.
And so today, I also want to set out how the independent sector and its leadership teams can play a part in raising standards across our education system.
Unashamedly, we want to replicate the best of what the independent sector does - learning and applying the lessons from its success.
But to do that properly, we need to draw directly on the excellence, ethos, and proven track record - what my predecessor, Lord Adonis, called the “educational DNA” of the independent sector.
I was pleased to see that that the title of this conference - Meeting the Challenges - suggests independent schools are not resting on their laurels.
Because the education system is facing some of its toughest challenges in decades.
How do we meet the demands of business, universities and society to compete in a fast-changing, unpredictable global economy?
How do we use early years’ provision and schools to drive social mobility?
How do we drive up standards in the state system in the face of tighter public spending?
Our White Paper last November, The Importance of Teaching, pointed out that there is much to admire and build on in England’s state education system: hundreds of outstanding schools; tens of thousands of great teachers; academies established and outstripping the rest of the maintained sector.
But it was also made clear that too many children are still being let down because the system is not fulfilling its potential.
We’re failing to keep pace with countries with the best education systems - falling back in the PISA international rankings, from fourth to sixteenth in science; seventh to 25th in literacy; and eighth to 28th in maths - meaning our 15-year-olds are two years behind their Chinese peers in maths; and a year behind teenagers in Korea or Finland in reading.
We’re still not meeting the expectations of employers - with the CBI’s annual education and skills survey just last month finding that almost half of top employers had to invest in remedial training for school and college leavers.
And we’ve still not closed the yawning attainment gap - which remains unacceptably wide both between rich and poor and between state and private sectors.
Professor William Richardson’s excellent report for the HMC 18 months ago, showed the top ten universities’ increasing reliance on the independent sector - with 40% of all students on strategically important courses like engineering, science, maths and languages, drawn from private schools.
And last year’s A-level results also showed a fifth of all entrants in chemistry, physics, maths and biological sciences and almost a third in further maths were independent school pupils.
But as a nation, we can’t carry on relying on the seven per cent of young people the independent sector educates, to provide such a high proportion of future generations of scientists, engineers, medics or linguists.
The key to both social mobility and a mobile economy is to realise the potential, ability and talent of young people from all backgrounds.
That’s why we’ve introduced the English Baccalaureate.
The Russell Group has been quite clear about the core GCSE and A-level subjects which equips students best for the most competitive courses - English; maths; the three sciences; geography; history; classical and modern languages.
So the E-Bacc is designed to open up those same subjects to tens of thousands of state pupils currently denied the opportunity.
We need to take clear action.
It is a major concern to us that nine out of ten state pupils eligible for free school meals are not even entered for the E-Bacc subjects - and just 4% actually achieve it.
It is a concern that the proportion taking a modern foreign language GCSE has slipped from 79% a decade ago to just 43% last year - and little more than a third when you take out independent schools.
And it cannot be right that no pupil was entered for any of the single award science GCSEs in 719 mainstream state schools; for French in 169; for geography in 137; and for history in 70.
The most academic subjects must not become the preserve of independent schools.
They should be open to every single student, regardless of background.
In the modern world, there is nowhere to hide for any school leaver. Jobs can be transported across international borders in a nanosecond. The pace of technological change means that new industries are evolving in the space of months not decades.
So it is no longer good enough to judge state education simply by how much we spend or against rigid, centrally arbitrated targets - we need to raise our game.
Our reform programme draws on the clear and consistent evidence base from the leading education systems around the world.
PISA, OECD, McKinsey and others tell us that despite most developed countries doubling or even tripling their education spending since the mid-1970s, outcomes have varied wildly.
Because it is not how much they’ve spent on education that counts most. It is how they spent it.
The strongest systems recruit and develop the best teachers. They have strong leadership. They have internationally benchmarked curricula, assessments and qualifications. And above all, they give schools and professionals freedom to flourish.
That’s why we are getting rid of much unnecessary, cumbersome bureaucracy that bedevils state schools - slimming down the National Curriculum; scrapping the Self Evaluation Form; focusing Ofsted inspections on teaching; closing down quangos; and cutting the overly complex Admissions Code and hundreds of pages of statutory guidance.
But we want to go further.
We want to complete the last government’s unfinished business when it comes to academies.
We’ve enabled every single state primary, secondary and special school to become independent, autonomous institutions. Free to decide how to use their budgets. Free to vary pay and conditions. Free to decide the length of the school day. Free to offer qualifications in their pupils’ best interests.
Academies have already proved a force for good in turning around underperforming schools in some of the most deprived areas. Mossbourne in Hackney; the Harris chain across south London and Burlington Danes in Hammersmith are now watchwords for the best of what the state sector can achieve.
Just as your success is rooted in independence, the evidence is emerging that these early academies’ independence has driven up standards in neighbouring state schools - as new research from the LSE showed last month.
We’re allowing good state schools to convert to academy status and the demand to do so has far exceeded our expectations.
It took five years to open 15 City Technology Colleges and four years to open the first 27 Academies.
But 1244 schools have applied to become an academy in the last 12 months and 430 have already converted - a rate of more than two every school day. A third of all secondary schools are either now academies or in the process of converting. And hundreds more are in the pipeline.
This is a fundamental shift away from government and towards teachers and professionals.
Academies are now reforming in ways never foreseen when the programme started a decade ago:
• established multi-academy chains like Harris and ARK are raising standards in areas failed educationally for generations.
• the first special schools are going through the application process.
• the first generation of specialist technical academies are now opening - offering high-quality, work-based vocational education.
• the door is now open to Further Education and Sixth Form Colleges and alternative provision to become academies through the current Education Bill before Parliament.
• the first free schools are now set to open from September - and hundreds more coming through.
Independent schools have already played an important part - acting as lead academy sponsors like Dulwich, Wellington and Canford; co-sponsoring like Marlborough, King Edward School, Bryanson and Tonbridge; or being active educational partners like Malvern, Winchester, Uppingham and Oundle.
Organisations like ULT, Girls’ Day School Trust, Haberdashers’, Woodard Schools and the Skinner’s Company oversee joint families of academies and independent schools.
And some have actually converted to the state sector like Birkenhead High School; William Hulme’s Grammar School; Belvedere Girls’ School; and Bristol Cathedral Choir School.
But as the brakes come off the programme, scores more opportunities are opening up for the independent sector; HE and FE; charities; and business to play a greater role.
Because crucially, we haven’t forgotten the programme’s roots - to turn round our most challenging, underperforming schools.
Children only get one shot at education. So we’re clear that we will not hesitate to intervene in weak schools which are letting down parents and pupils.
And that’s why we’ve appointed Dr Liz Sidwell, the Chief Executive of Haberdashers’ Aske’s Federation, as our new Schools Commissioner.
Few in education have her track record or experience. And she hasn’t been shy in challenging local authorities and heads to come up with robust improvement plans - brokering academy arrangements; recruiting sponsors; enthusing heads and governors to go for academy status; promoting free schools to prospective proposers; and expanding our existing pool of sponsors significantly.
Many schools in the independent sector have already established successful partnerships with neighbouring institutions through the Independent State School Partnership scheme. And we want that sort of collaboration to continue through the new national network of Teaching Schools; our Education Endowment Fund; and the National and Local Leaders of Education programme.
But I believe that formally sponsoring, founding or partnering an academy must be the next logical step for many more independent and state schools.
Because as academies become the norm in every single part of the system, how the best institutions are judged in the public’s eyes will also change.
We have a clear expectation that the strongest state schools converting to academies should partner the weakest.
And I hope that same expectation can apply in the independent sector too.
Providing an opportunity for the sector to spread its unique ethos, culture and thinking to tens of thousands more children whose parents can’t afford school fees.
Concepts like Brighton College’s plans for a consortium of independent and state schools to establish a sixth form college in East London to get gifted students to top universities.
I know some schools have been hesitant to come forward. I understand those who may feel that the independent sector has enough on its plate - with many parents fighting hard to afford fees and many smaller schools striving to keep their heads above water in the current economic climate.
But many independent schools were born out of a moral drive to help the poorest. That same moral purpose underpins our reforms - to give every single child, of whatever background, the opportunity to make the most of their talents.
Mr Chairman, in the 12 months that I’ve had the privilege to hold the position of Minister of State for Schools I have done all I can to reduce regulation on the independent sector and I hope we can go further still.
We’ve recognised the iGCSE in the performance tables - including from this year the Edexcel iGCSE - and we’ve made our admiration for what the sector has achieved clear at every opportunity.
We all have the same goals when it comes to raising standards throughout the education system and I look forward to continuing to work with HMC and the independent sector to help achieve those goals.
Thank you.
