MacroAid - A Libel Case in Two Parts. Part One.

Recently, Bill Gates announced to the world that come 2008, his role as head of Microsoft would become part-time and less hands-on. In return, 'Billionaire Buffet' (first-name actually Warren, but it would have been amazing forethought by his parents to call him that. Just like Mr and Mrs Chandelier, with their "erotica-actress" daughter, Crystal) decided that he, as perhaps the second-richest man in the world (amazingly, this kind of list can get rather confused at the top) would give most of his money to the world's richest man - or rather, his charitable foundation.

Bill and his wife Melinda are quite well known for their philanthropy, but I couldn't help but wonder upon hearing the news that Bill (it's okay for me to call you Bill, isn't it Bill?) was going to effectively stop running Microsoft, whether he would take control of the 'Gates Foundation' instead? And if he did, would he apply the same business techniques that made the EU and the American government tremble?

This set my mind a-whirring and the result presented here is merely the first part of a special Evidential Two-Parter that will one day be used to convict me of libel. Or get me on Newsnight. Hmmm, Paxman? Or prison? Don't rush me, I'm still thinking......

WaterAid 2k19

WaterAid 2k19 has finally completed the closed alpha testing stage and is now open to the public in beta form. All Third World communities with populations under 20,000, with a journey of 25 miles or greater to their nearest freshwater supply, are now eligible to sign up for the next testing stage. Beneficiaries of WaterAid 1, WaterAid 2k12 and WaterAid for Networked Communities can all upgrade to the beta for free.

Participants should be aware that as this is not a final Aid product as of yet, some bugs may still be present within the water.

GF Sight Express

Gates Foundation Sight Express is an exciting new Aid product, designed to enable those who suffer from mild to total blindness in developing nations to access modern, Western medical technology, but without the complexity and wealth of features offered by its sister Aid product, GF Sight Pro. End-Aid-Users (beneficiaries) can rest assured that GF Sight Express still retains all the core benefits of GF Sight Pro, such as laser-eye treatment and retina-grafting, all bundled together in a streamlined Aid package that would be suitable for the smaller vision-impaired household or community.

Licenses for GF Sight Express are available in single and community volumes. Existing licenses become void if beneficiaries move communities and new licenses must be purchased, or Aid must be returned.

Study Explorer 3

A whole raft of new features have been incorporated into the latest Aid study product, including new schools for Third World communities with 15 or more children, text books with 18.36% more lines, and support for an extra 17 languages. Upgrades from previous incarnations of Study Explorer will probably require infrastructure investment, as Study Explorer 3 delivery cannot take place on Study Explorer 1- or 2-compatible roads, unless they were built to the WorldAid Vision Ready standard. WorldAid Vision Compliant roads will suffice in the majority of cases, but End-Aid-Users should be aware that the lower security of Compliant roads may result in increased security vulnerabilities. AidSecure 3000 is therefore recommended as a companion to Compliant communities, as it helps to prevent attacks from trojan pick-ups and guarantees the safe delivery of Aid products.

Study Explorer 3 is not compatible with similar Aid services, particularly those from corporate-funded programmes, e.g. Pepsi Kool Skool, or Apple’s iLearn, among others.
