"Every boy needs a positive male role model in their life, and especially during childhood. This relationship is most commonly filled by their dad but when this isn’t possible, another significant man in a boy’s life could take this place." Man and Boy is an organisation which provides fun and enjoyable activities for young boys and a significant man in their life to take part in. From camps to rock climbing to electronics, a wide variety of events are designed to strengthen the relation between the man and boy, and encourage them to spend more time with each other. By doing so, they help young boys from all backgrounds gain a greater self-esteem and confidence, and men are supported as necessary role models to help guide them throughout their youth. Interacting with other families through these types of events are a great way to not only get to know your man or boy better, but also learn about other families and their dynamics. The staff and volunteers help create and maint...

  A while ago, we explored the fundamentals of cryptography and how a plaintext message is converted to a cipher text, only to be converted back again into plaintext form in order to be transferred safely over an insecure network.  We have also looked at  cryptocurrency  and concluded that it is one of the most secure forms of currency (if not, the most secure form out there today). Cryptocurrency transactions are stored in blocks, and multiple blocks make up what's called a blockchain.  In this post, we'll be looking at hashing, what it is, how it works, and where it is used in today's world of technology, including cryptocurrency.  Here is a plaintext message: "Hello world" Now, if we were implementing cryptography to turn this into a cipher text, we would have to use an encryption key and would get some sort of cipher text, such as "2s4f bh80i" Then, if we wanted to access the plaintext form, we would use a decryption key to convert it back to ' H...

During the course of history, mankind has witnessed some very gruesome assassinations, especially of the powerful leaders. From the stabbing of Julius Caesar, to the quite literally dramatic shooting of Abraham Lincoln, every event has its own unique backstory: this could simply be a few years in power or centuries of civil unrest or sometimes both. Today, we'll be exploring one of the biggest independence movements ever and how it led to a ruthless killing that would change the course of history for the years to come.  c.1930, India - Nehru's Congress decrees the Purna Swaraj (or the Declaration of Independence), which revolves around fighting for independence of India from the British rule. India being a majorly Hindu country (hence the original name Hindustan), the idea of being their own autonomous state was rather favourable. However, for the non-Hindu population, they weren't too fond of being governed by a predominantly Hindu cabinet. Main figures who spoke against t...
