Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer show some serious football skills
June 22, 2018 June 22, 2018 Ruby Singh	Comment(0)
With the World Cup in full swing, even tennis stars Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Garbine Muguruza have been caught up in the celebrations of the quadrennial tournament.
Their countries (Serbia, Switzerland and Spain) are all participating in the 2018 FIFA World Cup and the tennis stars posted videos showing them getting into the groove for football's greatest show.
Djokovic, who is making a comeback from a long-term elbow injury, posted a video on Instagram in which he can be seen juggling a small football. He is currently in England playing the Queen's Club Championship in preparation for the Wimbledon.
He posted the video with the caption, "World Cup fever got me like…".
As the tennis grass season kicks off, Wimbledon also posted a video on their Facebook page which shows Federer, Muguruza and Andy Murray, among others, showing off their football skills but with a tennis ball.
The world No. 1 Swiss showed extremely good control with his feet just like he does with a racquet in hand. The Spanish Muguruza is nifty with her feet too, juggling the small tennis ball with ease and that too in the red jersey of her country.
Though Andy Murray will not be able to support his own country Scotland, he will surely cheer for rivals and neighbours England.
The World Cup fever has caught the world of motor sports too with Formula One having to push back the start time of Sunday's French Grand Prix so as to avoid the clash with the match between England and Panama.
Lewis Hamilton, though, accepted that he and his Mercedes engineers might still be distracted by the footballing action in Nizhny Novgorod.
The four-times world champion said that he will try to keep an eye on England's group game against Panama, which will kick off in Russia two hours ahead of the race at Le Castellet.
"The game is on Sunday so it's going to be a little bit harder to focus on the race," the Briton, who is a point behind Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel after seven races, told reporters in the team hospitality.
"The game will be on in here, I'm sure my engineers will be trying to keep an eye both things at the same time, as will I."

Two circles combined to make what is known as the Vesica Pisces (fish bladder). This is that small seed shape in the midst of the circles and is the most important construction in sacred geometry. It is sometimes called the birth canal of the universe. Then two larger arcs come together to make what I call the House of Gold because it has the golden ratio (1,618…) within the midst of its arced walls. Then taking one of the central distances (line) creates a perfect division of the House of Gold into six parts as the six circles show this. I was very excited to work this simple but lost construction out and bring it back from the dead 3 years ago. Grab a compass and try to construct it.
it then becomes two and a closed eye can see no fear.
then daylight shows his might.
This flower now blooms in the Fall.
The germ of life is the first full construction that is taught by Justin The Cirler. This is a magical little construction that naturally falls out with seven simple steps. This can be done with just rusty compass (compass that does not change size) in seconds. Ancient peoples would have come discovered this very quickly and would adored if for its organizational properties and simplicity.

Crest of a Knave is the sixteenth studio album by British rock band Jethro Tull, released in 1987. The album was recorded after a hiatus of three years occasioned by a throat infection of vocalist Ian Anderson. After the unsuccessful Under Wraps, the band returned to a more heavily blended electric with acoustic style of sound, one of the top characteristics of Jethro Tull.
SHOP CREST ON BURNING SHED
The album was Jethro Tull's most successful since the 1970s, and the band enjoyed a resurgence on radio broadcasts, appearances in MTV specials, and the airing of music videos. It was also a critical favourite, winning the 1989 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental. The album was supported by "The Not Quite the World, More the Here and There Tour".
MORE ABOUT THE ALBUM
Even though Doane Perry had been a member of Jethro Tull since 1984, several tracks still featured drum machine instead of a live drummer. Keyboardist Peter-John Vettese was also absent and it was Ian Anderson who contributed the synth programming. The album sleeve only lists Ian Anderson, Martin Barre and Dave Pegg as official band members. Barre remembers of this production as being "the album where a lot of things were of my invention. There are still chunks of the music where lan very much knew what he wanted, but I think my input was far greater on that album than on any other".
The cover was designed by heraldic artist Andrew Stewart Jamieson. The single "Steel Monkey" has the cover designed by art director John Pasche.
This album was released simultaneously on LP and on CD, but the vinyl edition did not feature the songs "Dogs in the Midwinter" and "The Waking Edge". Both tracks appeared on vinyl as B-sides to the singles.
AND EVEN MORE…
The album back cover shows in the credit that the album were: "Recorded just round the corner from the kitchen in the room behind the door which used to be painted white but isn't any more". And also: "Martin would like to thank Paul Hamer (Hamer Guitars). Ian and Dave would like to thank almost everybody else."
The album relied more heavily on Martin Barre's electric guitar than the band had since the 1970s. The style of Crest has been compared to that of Dire Straits, in part because Anderson no longer had the vocal range he once possessed (the result of recent throat surgery).
Ian Anderson later stated about the musical style of the album: "'Steel Monkey' was based around a sequencer riff, and it didn't have any flute in it. So it was yet another atypical Jethro Tull song that was a radio hit. By comparison, both 'Farm On The Freeway' and 'Budapest' are very typical Tull songs. 'Budapest' is the kind of song I like to write because it embodies a lot of different nuances which I think are subtly joined together. It sort of moves from classical to slightly bluesy to folk, and it just slips between them and you don't see the stitching."

"Clouds still befuddle scientists and hence India is putting a very strong emphasis on understanding the behaviour of clouds," says an expert.
Clouds are omnipresent yet many experts agree the understanding of clouds is still in a very nascent stage. What are the distinguishing features of monsoon clouds, how do the clouds form and how does the climate change affect the clouds? There are many questions that add to the enigma of the clouds.
In probably the country's only lab dedicated to the study of tropical clouds, one can literally kiss the clouds that pass over the Rs 50 crore laboratory day in and day out as scientists try to understand them better.
Dr G Pandithurai, Scientist, High Altitude Cloud Physics Laboratory, Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Mahabaleshwar, says, "We study the processes related to clouds and precipitation in this lab. Here the advantage is that we get clouds close to the surface so we can monitor them and their physical properties and how the cloud activation process happens."
Do the scientists here claim an expertise in monsoon clouds too? Mr Pandithurai says, "We still do not understand the monsoon cloud very well, especially in the Western Ghats, the orographic clouds. That is the objective of this observatory."
Monsoon clouds are much lower in altitude, much warmer than the clouds in the temperate regions and usually "not very deep", says Dr Ravi Nanjundiah, Director of the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune.
"Clouds still befuddle scientists and hence India is putting a very strong emphasis on understanding the behaviour of clouds," he says.
Located in the forests of the Western Ghats at an altitude of 1400 meters, the lab boasts of sophisticated instruments. Every year, the slopes receive 6 metre rain due to the bearing clouds from the Arabian Sea, which is decreasing by 8 mm annually.
So what are the scientists studying amid these clouds? What are the nuclei on which rain drops condense? How is air pollution affecting cloud behaviour? The link between climate change and clouds is still a mystery. The chaos and turbulence in the tropics makes it even more challenging to predict the Indian weather.
Scientists hope that improved understanding of clouds will help in better prediction of monsoons. And in the long run, these studies can also suggest ways to modify incoming heavy clouds so as to avoid extreme flooding, for instance in Mumbai and Chennai. Whether we like it or not, the scientific understanding of clouds remains hazy and Indian scientists are working hard to lift the veil.

Learn About James Surls & Houston's Art History in Austin
by Brandon Zech May 12, 2019
A still from Jackelope
On May 15, 2019, from 7-10 PM, in conjunction with James Surls: With Out, With In, a solo show of sculptures by the artist currently on view at the UMLAUF Sculpture Garden and Museum in Austin, the institution will host a screening of Jackelope, and a book signing by art historian Pete Gershon.
Jackelope, a rarely-seen 1975 Texas art documentary made by Ken Harrison, looks at the lives and work of artists who chose to make Texas their home. The hour-long film chronicles scenes of opening receptions from the Fort Worth Art Museum, the evolution of a large-scale wooden sculpture by Mr. Surls, and much more, as Peter Lucas noted in a 2015 review of the film for Glasstire:
"While Jackelope focuses largely on Surls, [George] Green, and [Bob] Wade, a number of other art notables are in the film. There is the enigmatic presence of artist Letitia Eldridge at an opening. We sit on the porch and look at slides with the late Chicano artist Mel Casas at his home outside of San Antonio. Mike McNamara, John Alexander, and a bunch of other artists are in there, as well as a brief appearance by Jim Harithas, then director of the Contemporary Arts Museum and a fairly recent transplant to Houston at the time."
Following the screening, Mr. Gershon will sign copies of his 2018 book Collision: The Contemporary Art Scene in Houston, 1972-1985, which chronicles a formative period of art making in the city, of which Mr. Surls was a crucial part. You can learn more about the book by reading Christina Rees' interview with Mr. Gershon, or by listening to Glasstire's podcast with him, linked below.

EMA grants orphan designation to Can-Fite's CF102
Jennifer Poland
Can-Fite BioPharma's (NYSE MKT:CANF; TASE:CFBI) oncology drug candidate, CF102, has been granted orphan drug designation by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the indication of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common form of liver cancer.
CF102 will benefit from protocol assistance and 10 years of market exclusivity following market authorization in the 28 EU member states, as well as three additional European Economic Area countries.
"The EMA's orphan drug designation for CF102 is the latest in a series of catalysts that we believe are accelerating the clinical development path of our liver cancer drug towards market approval," CEO, Dr. Pnina Fishman, said in a statement.
In the U.S., CF102 has received fast track designation as a second line treatment for HCC patients who have previously received Nexavar, the only FDA-approved drug on the market, and orphan drug designation for the treatment of HCC. Israel's Ministry of Health has also approved CF102 for compassionate use for HCC.
Can-Fite is conducting a Phase 2 study with CF102 in patients with advanced HCC in the U.S., Europe and Israel. The study is expected to complete enrollment by the end of the first half of 2016 in 78 patients with Child-Pugh Class B cirrhosis who have failed treatment with Nexavar.

Cyberattacks targeting healthcare organizations are on the rise, and the consequences are significant. From regulatory penalties to reputation damage and, most importantly, risks to patient safety, a breach of patients' sensitive healthcare information can be devastating. That's why the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires healthcare providers to follow many requirements for protecting patient data classified as protected health information (PHI).
HIPAA requires that PHI remain confidential at all times. This means providers like hospital systems, community clinics, and private practices, and have to follow a litany of HIPAA rules to protect this data, although healthcare cybersecurity is complex. In this article, you'll learn what PHI is, why it needs protection, and how providers and healthcare organizations can better protect it.
What Is PHI?
PHI is any data created, received, or stored by HIPAA covered entities and business associates that either:
Can be used to identify an individual (such as a Social Security number, name, or date of birth)
Is tied to the identity of an individual (such as a name accompanying lab results)
This data can include information regarding diagnoses, the past, present, or future treatment of a patient for either their physical or mental health, and payment for healthcare services.
In its digital form, PHI is called electronic protected health information (ePHI), which is becoming more common. However, PHI can also include printed information and even information shared verbally.
Examples of PHI
But what, exactly, qualifies as PHI? HIPAA says providers need to follow specific safeguards for any data that fit into these categories:
Geography (more detailed than a state, such as city, street name, etc.)
Identifying dates other than a year (admission date, discharge date, etc.)
Medical record number
Health plan beneficiary number
Vehicle license number or serial number
Medical device identifier or serial number
URLs (website links)
Biometrics, like fingerprints
Full facial photographs
Any other unique identifying characteristic
PHI is everywhere. In its digital form (ePHI), it's in computers, flash drives, smartphones, tablets, emails, PDFs, and more. It's even in prescriptions, calendar appointments, MRIs, and X-rays. PHI also includes credit card numbers, demographic information, test results, and insurance information.
Even things that don't seem like PHI might count as PHI, depending on the circumstances. Since HIPAA fines range from $100 to more than $50,000 per violation, it's best to err on the side of caution.
What Doesn't Count as PHI?
However, not all patient data counts as PHI. There are certain situations where PHI disclosure rules won't apply, including:
Data for a patient that has been deceased for at least 50 years.
Student health data stored by a university or public school (this data is subject to more stringent standards than HIPAA).
Health-related information stored by employers about their employees.
De-identified PHI. If providers remove all identifiers from the data, it's no longer considered PHI and can be shared.
Data stored in health apps that patients use to record their health and fitness goals, like a digital pedometer.
Why Providers Must Protect PHI
Substantial HIPAA fines are a concern, but they're not the most important reason healthcare organizations need to protect PHI through investments in cybersecurity and physical safeguards. Not only is it the right thing to do out of respect for patient privacy, but PHI breaches can pose serious risks to patient safety through improper treatment, inaccurate diagnoses, and delays in the provision of care.
The challenge is that attackers desperately want healthcare data. In fact, healthcare records are worth more than any other records on the black market, selling for $250 to $1,000 or more per record. Meanwhile, credit card numbers sell for about $5 each and Social Security numbers for $1 each.
Attackers also know that healthcare organizations face challenges in securing patient PHI, especially on Internet of Things (IoT) devices, which store and transmit data in the cloud. Plus, this isn't like a stolen credit card number. Patients can't change their address, Social Security number, or name every time an attacker steals their information. If their data is out there, it's there forever — and that's why healthcare providers need to take PHI protections so seriously.
Protecting PHI
As a healthcare provider, you're required to protect PHI at every stage. At a minimum, your business needs to follow HIPAA's administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for PHI.
If you rely on vendors to process patient information, HIPAA also requires you to sign business associate agreements (BAAs) with those vendors. These third-party vendors include:
IT vendors
Cloud storage companies
Data processing vendors
Third-party HR companies
BAAs define who is accountable for protecting PHI. Ultimately, the hospital or health system is responsible for ensuring PHI protection, making it crucial for healthcare organizations to audit their third-party vendors to ensure they have the appropriate safeguards in place.
Get Better PHI Visibility with Situational PHI Awareness
HIPAA created the concept of PHI in the 1990s, but a lot has changed in the decades since. Because of the immense amount of data generated, received, stored, and sent by healthcare providers, it's more challenging than ever to identify and protect PHI.
You can only protect PHI if you know it exists. Tausight's Situational ePHI Awareness solution detects PHI across all endpoints in your healthcare ecosystem and analyzes PHI activity and risk to continuously evaluate your organization's cyber preparedness. Contact Tausight today to learn how you can gain a comprehensive, real-time view of PHI through the entire healthcare continuum.

Q: How do i get this loop to stop correctly and show the sum of prices? var sum = 0;
var Discount = 0;
var afterDiscount = 0;
var Price;
while (true) {
    Price = (prompt("Please enter a Price or -1 to STOP"));
    if (Price === -1)
    sum=sum+Price;
if (Price <= 50) {
            alert(Price);
        } else if (Price > 50 && Price <= 100) {
            alert(Price-Price*.10);

        } else if (Price > 100) {
            alert(Price-Price*.20);

        }
}
alert(sum);

I need to know how to get the loop to stop correctly and get the sum to output as an Alert

A: You can (and most likely will have to) use break; to get out of the loop.
Like:
if (price == -1) {
  break;
}

A: You can prompt without the loop. Remove the while entirely.

A: Your code is an infinite loop:
while (true) {
    ...
}

You can break out of the loop when you get -1; consider the following:
if (Price === -1){
    break;
}

Once you have exited the loop, you can now handle your sum however you wish. In your example, you do this:
alert(sum);

This will now work as intended after your loop has exited.
Note:
For your sum to correctly increase its value, don't forget to cast your prompt result to an int, since prompt always returns a string. Consider the following fix:
Price = parseInt(prompt("Please enter a Price or -1 to STOP"));
        ^^^^^^^^

A: <html>
<body>
<script>

var sum   = 0,
    Price = 0,
    loop  = true;

while ( loop ) {
    console.log( 'Suma: ' + sum );

    Price = (prompt( "Please enter a Price or -1 to STOP" ));

    if ( Price == -1 ) {
        //sum--;
        loop = false;

    } else {
        sum = sum + Number(Price);
    }

    if (Price <= 50) {
        alert(Price);

    } else if (Price > 50 && Price <= 100) {
        alert(Price-Price*.10);

    } else if (Price > 100) {
        alert(Price-Price*.20);

    }
}

alert(sum);

The dynamics of the asymmetric D + MuH (Mu = Muonium) reaction leading to Mu exchange, DMu + H, and H abstraction, DH + Mu, channels has been investigated using time-independent quantum mechanical (QM) calculations. Reaction probabilities, cross sections, cumulative reaction probabilities, and rate coefficients were determined for the two exit channels of the reaction. Quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) calculations were also performed in order to check the reliability of the method for this reaction and to discern the genuine quantum effects. Overall, the Mu exchange channel exhibits more structured reaction probabilities and cross sections with much larger rate coefficients than the H abstraction counterpart. Over the 100–1000 K temperature interval considered in this study, the QM rate coefficients for the Mu exchange vary between ≈5 × 10−15 and 2 × 10−11 cm3 s−1 and those for the generation of DH + Mu between 2 × 10−18 and 3.5 × 10−12 cm3 s−1. In common with the rest of the isotopologues of the H + H2 system, the height of the respective barriers in the collinear (symmetric stretch) vibrationally adiabatic potential energy curves matches the classical total energy threshold very accurately. Indeed, the lower and narrower vibrationally adiabatic collinear barrier as compared with that for the DH + Mu formation determines the preponderance of the DMu + H channel. Comparison of QM and QCT results and their analysis show that tunneling accounts for the reactivity at energies below the height of these barriers and that its effect on the rate coefficients becomes appreciable below 300 K. As expected, with growing temperature the contribution of tunneling to the global reactivity decreases markedly, but the rate coefficients are still much higher for the Mu exchange channel due to the effect of MuH rotational excitation that boosts the formation of DMu while diminishing the H abstraction channel that leads to DH formation. The analysis of the thermal cumulative reaction probabilities of the two channels indicates that at the lowest energies/temperatures the reaction into the DH + Mu channel takes place via 'leakage' from collisions proceeding along the DMu + H reaction path.

Pixar's Brave has now grossed an impressive $131 million in North America and has still yet to be released throughout most of the world. Whilst Mark Andrews' Brave may be doing well financially, I'm in some doubt as to whether it artistically lives up to the studio's glowing reputation.
Independently minded Princess Merida (voiced by Kelly MacDonald) is determined to choose her own destiny, so when her mother arranges for her to be married to the son of another clan leader, the flame-haired young girl rebels. After wishing her mother would change, Merida gets more than she bargained for as her mother transforms into a bear, leaving the Princess to change her back before the spell becomes permanent.
Pixar's technical brilliance is evident from the opening shots, sweeping over Scotland's scenic glens and dense forestry which is truly awe-inspiring. These flawlessly crafted sequences blur the lines between reality and animation, with the illusion only broken by the presence of the computer-animated characters. This high standard continues throughout, with the Scottish landscape helping define the mythic character of the film.
Brave steps away from traditional Disney territory, reimagining the role of a Disney Princess. Merida is not looking for a handsome Prince, she dreads the idea of having that future. Providing a contrast is her mother, the traditional Queen Elinor (voiced by Emma Thompson) - focussed on her representation and royal duty. The contrast between the pair proves to be of some narrative interest - with Brave's message being one of family and communication, the latter being something lacking between Merida and Elinor's relationship.
Unfortunately, once we establish these themes, it is clear that Brave is lacking the narrative depth of some of its Pixar predecessors. This is a simple story that mainly consists of the heroine attempting to transfer her mother back to her original form - I personally found this linear structure something that limited Brave.
Whilst younger viewers will surely be delighted by the humour in Brave, adults may be left aloof, with a lack of consistent jokes for an older audience. However, the Billy Connolly voiced King Fergus, does generate a lot of laughs and the star is his charismatic self. A host of Scottish references went down a treat at the Edinburgh press screening from titbits on empire biscuits, The Wicker Man Festival to a humorous Highland games style sequence. There is also a host of entertaining vocal performances from Scottish stars including Craig Ferguson, Robbie Coltrane and Kevin McKidd (all as rival clan leaders) and others including Julie Walters.
Brave is certainly by no means a bad film, but when compared to the likes of Pixar's Toy Story 3 and Up, it is somewhat lacking. Astonishing visuals and an exciting twist on the Disney Princess feature do help Brave to shine. Although, its linear narrative and emphasis on more childish humour does prove somewhat unappealing as a viewer.

Artist's Reflections on the Sculpture Project
By Masayuki Nagase
This September I completed the Rapid City sculpture project, The Passage of Wind and Water. It almost seems like yesterday that I was working on the initial application, and it's hard to believe that was six years ago. I have always felt honored and grateful to have been selected as the artist and to have had the opportunity to work in this community. I feel very satisfied to have completed the work on schedule and to have learned so much from so many people here who shared their experiences and perspectives of this region.
The project was a true collaboration between many groups. It was part of the vision of the original Main Street Square design. It is very special when a community can come together and bring forth such a project. It was like a light that was lit from collective energy. And having finished this project, it is my hope that this light will continue to shine in the community.
A part of my original vision for this project was to support the local arts in the community. I have found that some of the greatest potential of public art is the building of new channels of communication across diverse groups. I am so pleased with the following collaborative efforts by artists in Rapid City, most of which were supported in part through Destination Rapid City:
Echoing Passages Collaborative: Sara Olivier, Randal Iverson, Ben Lemay and Christine Stewart Nunez
Native POP People of the Plains, A Gathering of Art and Culture
Creative documentation by photographer Steve Babbitt
Wind and Water Art Exhibit at Prairie Edge Gallery
Passage to Schools, K-12 Field Trip and School Curricula by Rapid City High School teacher Gabrielle Seeley
Passage of Wind and Water - A Community's Journey at the Journey Museum
I am also grateful that we successfully developed and launched the Teaching Artists Program, TAP, through the Rapid City Arts Council. A part of my original proposal was to offer arts education by local artists in the elementary schools. I am so pleased to see after five years this program has began to grow and spread in the schools. And importantly, TAP will continue after this year with new funding from the Rapid City Public School Foundation and the Black Hills Community Foundation.
In addition, I deeply appreciate all of the people of the Rapid City and surrounding communities who offered their support, friendship and assistance. I am grateful to my Lakota friends who shared with me their culture and their deep understanding of nature. I will always remember this special time here and I hope this positive energy of the project will continue to grow in the community.
I would like to express my appreciation for the following organizations and individuals who supported the Rapid City sculpture project:
Destination Rapid City and Main Street Square staff and board; Dan Senftner and Megan Whitman
The John T. Vucurevich Foundation[Hillenbrand Family
Patrick Wyss, Project Manager from Wyss Associates, Inc. and staff
Anna Huntington, former Community Arts Coordinator for the Sculpture Project
Rapid City Arts Council and Dahl Fine Arts Center: Pepper Massey and staff
Alex Johnson Hotel
Journey Museum
Steve Babbitt, photographer for project documentation
Sara Olivier, choreographer/dancer and her dance students who participated in Echoing Passages Collaborative
Randal Iverson, cinematographer for Echoing Passages Collaborative
Benjamin Lemay, composer for Echoing Passages Collaborative
Christine Stewart Nunez and contributors to the choral poems that are part of the Echoing Passages Collaborative
Gabrielle Seeley, Art and language teacher at Rapid City High School
Jhon Goes in Center (Oglala Lakota), artist
Deane Rundell, Landscape architect for Main Street Square
Sculpture Project Advisory Committee
Rapid City Sculpture Project Selection Committee
In addition, I am very grateful to the following local companies who gave valuable support for the work on site:
Rausch Granite and Life Song: Charles Rausch and his fabrication team Richard Niko Suchil, Josh Hansen and all other staff who helped with the sandblasting the spires and polishing on site
SECO Construction, Inc.: Neal Schlottman, president and Dale Grim, supervisor and staff who helped with set up and create the safety barriers at the work site
Red Letter Sign Company: Andrew Hade, owner who helped with the stencil work for the two spires
Main Street Square maintenance crew for their ongoing support at the site
Read the artist's description of his work during the summer of 2017 on the blog. (You'll find his descriptions of previous years work, interviews and other stories on the blog here.) See photos of the project from beginning to end on Facebook.
Local dancer and choreographer Sara Olivier approached Yuki not long after he had been selected as the artist for The Sculpture Project about creating a cross-artistic performance collaboration. This was a first for Yuki. He agreed, and now Echoing Passages, which includes original dance, film, poetry and music inspired by Passage of Wind and Water, is unfolding alongside Yuki's work over five years.
Sara, 30, works with me as a Collaborative Strategist for Arts Rapid City and she teaches at Academy of Dance Arts. She and her husband, Austin, have a son, Henry, 5. Sara often says Echoing Passages is "for and about the community." Read more her process in the Q&A below and find out how you can get involved.

Q: Please describe how getting students into their communities affects learning?
A: Passage to Schools lessons use a current community project to connect students' classroom learning to their wider community. When teachers link community events and projects to what their students are learning in the classroom, students are motivated to think at high levels because the learning feels relevant.
Q: Do these lessons stretch or go a little deeper than traditional lessons? How are they different than traditional classroom lessons?
A: These lessons are innovative in several ways.

Christine Stewart shared a first draft of Part One of Passage of Wind and Water: A Choral Poem.
Christine writes that this draft is, "Inspired by the work of Mrs. Garrett's sixth-graders (Southwest Middle School) as well as several of the adult participants who have sent me lines, poems, and bits of prose. I have drafted the "wind" section of the choral poem. Several parts seem to be shaping up: stars, water, wind, stone, prairie. I'm eager to collect more submissions, so please send yours as soon as possible."
A choral poem is a poem designed to be read aloud by two or more people in a group setting. This first draft is crafted for three readers. To read the poem,

A plot is a graphical technique for representing a data set, usually as a graph showing the relationship between two or more variables. The plot can be drawn by hand or by a computer. In the past, sometimes mechanical or electronic plotters were used. Graphs are a visual representation of the relationship between variables, which are very useful for humans who can then quickly derive an understanding which may not have come from lists of values. Given a scale or ruler, graphs can also be used to read off the value of an unknown variable plotted as a function of a known one, but this can also be done with data presented in tabular form. Graphs of functions are used in mathematics, sciences, engineering, technology, finance, and other areas.

Overview
Plots play an important role in statistics and data analysis. The procedures here can broadly be split into two parts: quantitative and graphical. Quantitative techniques are a set of statistical procedures that yield numeric or tabular output. Examples of quantitative techniques include:
 hypothesis testing
 analysis of variance
 point estimates and confidence intervals
 least squares regression
These and similar techniques are all valuable and are mainstream in terms of classical analysis. There are also many statistical tools generally referred to as graphical techniques. These include:
 scatter plots
 spectrum plots
 histograms
 probability plots
 residual plots
 box plots, and
 block plots

Graphical procedures such as plots are a short path to gaining insight into a data set in terms of testing assumptions, model selection, model validation, estimator selection, relationship identification, factor effect determination, outlier detection. Statistical graphics give insight into aspects of the underlying structure of the data.

Graphs can also be used to solve some mathematical equations, typically by finding where two plots intersect.

Types of plots

 Biplot : These are a type of graph used in statistics. A biplot allows information on both samples and variables of a data matrix to be displayed graphically. Samples are displayed as points while variables are displayed either as vectors, linear axes or nonlinear trajectories. In the case of categorical variables, category level points may be used to represent the levels of a categorical variable. A generalised biplot displays information on both continuous and categorical variables.
 Bland–Altman plot : In analytical chemistry and biostatistics this plot is a method of data plotting used in analysing the agreement between two different assays. It is identical to a Tukey mean-difference plot, which is what it is still known as in other fields, but was popularised in medical statistics by Bland and Altman.
 Bode plots are used in control theory.
 Box plot : In descriptive statistics, a boxplot, also known as a box-and-whisker diagram or plot, is a convenient way of graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their five-number summaries (the smallest observation, lower quartile (Q1), median (Q2), upper quartile (Q3), and largest observation). A boxplot may also indicate which observations, if any, might be considered outliers.
 Carpet plot : A two-dimensional plot that illustrates the interaction between two and three independent variables and one to three dependent variables.
 Comet plot : A two- or three-dimensional animated plot in which the data points are traced on the screen.
 Contour plot : A two-dimensional plot which shows the one-dimensional curves, called contour lines on which the plotted quantity q is a constant. Optionally, the plotted values can be color-coded.
 Dalitz plot : This a scatterplot often used in particle physics to represent the relative frequency of various (kinematically distinct) manners in which the products of certain (otherwise similar) three-body decays may move apart

 Funnel plot : This is a useful graph designed to check the existence of publication bias in meta-analyses. Funnel plots, introduced by Light and Pillemer in 1994 and discussed in detail by Egger and colleagues, are useful adjuncts to meta-analyses. A funnel plot is a scatterplot of treatment effect against a measure of study size. It is used primarily as a visual aid to detecting bias or systematic heterogeneity.
 Dot plot (statistics) : A dot chart or dot plot is a statistical chart consisting of group of data points plotted on a simple scale. Dot plots are used for continuous, quantitative, univariate data. Data points may be labelled if there are few of them. Dot plots are one of the simplest plots available, and are suitable for small to moderate sized data sets. They are useful for highlighting clusters and gaps, as well as outliers.
 Forest plot : is a graphical display that shows the strength of the evidence in quantitative scientific studies. It was developed for use in medical research as a means of graphically representing a meta-analysis of the results of randomized controlled trials. In the last twenty years, similar meta-analytical techniques have been applied in observational studies (e.g. environmental epidemiology) and forest plots are often used in presenting the results of such studies also.

 Galbraith plot : In statistics, a Galbraith plot (also known as Galbraith's radial plot or just radial plot), is one way of displaying several estimates of the same quantity that have different standard errors. It can be used to examine heterogeneity in a meta-analysis, as an alternative or supplement to a forest plot.
 Heat map
 Lollipop plot
 Nichols plot : This is a graph used in signal processing in which the logarithm of the magnitude is plotted against the phase of a frequency response on orthogonal axes.
 Normal probability plot : The normal probability plot is a graphical technique for assessing whether or not a data set is approximately normally distributed. The data are plotted against a theoretical normal distribution in such a way that the points should form an approximate straight line. Departures from this straight line indicate departures from normality. The normal probability plot is a special case of the probability plot.
 Nyquist plot : Plot is used in automatic control and signal processing for assessing the stability of a system with feedback. It is represented by a graph in polar coordinates in which the gain and phase of a frequency response are plotted. The plot of these phasor quantities shows the phase as the angle and the magnitude as the distance from the origin.

 Partial regression plot : In applied statistics, a partial regression plot attempts to show the effect of adding another variable to the model (given that one or more independent variables are already in the model). Partial regression plots are also referred to as added variable plots, adjusted variable plots, and individual coefficient plots.
 Partial residual plot : In applied statistics, a partial residual plot is a graphical technique that attempts to show the relationship between a given independent variable and the response variable given that other independent variables are also in the model.
 Probability plot : The probability plot is a graphical technique for assessing whether or not a data set follows a given distribution such as the normal or Weibull, and for visually estimating the location and scale parameters of the chosen distribution. The data are plotted against a theoretical distribution in such a way that the points should form approximately a straight line. Departures from this straight line indicate departures from the specified distribution.
 Q–Q plot : In statistics, a Q–Q plot (Q stands for quantile) is a graphical method for diagnosing differences between the probability distribution of a statistical population from which a random sample has been taken and a comparison distribution. An example of the kind of differences that can be tested for is non-normality of the population distribution.
 Recurrence plot : In descriptive statistics and chaos theory, a recurrence plot (RP) is a plot showing, for a given moment in time, the times at which a phase space. In other words, it is a graph of

showing  on a horizontal axis and  on a vertical axis, where  is a phase space trajectory.
 Scatterplot : A scatter graph or scatter plot is a type of display using variables for a set of data. The data is displayed as a collection of points, each having the value of one variable determining the position on the horizontal axis and the value of the other variable determining the position on the vertical axis.
 Shmoo plot : In electrical engineering, a shmoo plot is a graphical display of the response of a component or system varying over a range of conditions and inputs. Often used to represent the results of the testing of complex electronic systems such as computers, ASICs or microprocessors. The plot usually shows the range of conditions in which the device under test will operate.
 Spaghetti plots are a method of viewing data to visualize possible flows through systems.  Flows depicted in this manner appear like noodles, hence the coining of this term.  This method of statistics was first used to track routing through factories.  Visualizing flow in this manner can reduce inefficiency within the flow of a system.

 Stemplot : A stemplot (or stem-and-leaf plot), in statistics, is a device for presenting quantitative data in a graphical format, similar to a histogram, to assist in visualizing the shape of a distribution. They evolved from Arthur Bowley's work in the early 1900s, and are useful tools in exploratory data analysis. Unlike histograms, stemplots retain the original data to at least two significant digits, and put the data in order, thereby easing the move to order-based inference and non-parametric statistics.
 Star plot : A graphical method of displaying multivariate data. Each star represents a single observation. Typically, star plots are generated in a multi-plot format with many stars on each page and each star representing one observation.
 Surface plot : In this type of graph, a surface is plotted to fit a set of data triplets (X,Y,Z), where Z if obtained by the function to be plotted Z=f(X,Y). Usually, the set of X and Y values are equally spaced. Optionally, the plotted values can be color-coded.

 Ternary plot : A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or de Finetti diagram is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an equilateral triangle. It is used in petrology, mineralogy, metallurgy, and other physical sciences to show the compositions of systems composed of three species. In population genetics, it is often called a de Finetti diagram.  In game theory, it is often called a simplex plot.
 Vector field : Vector field plots (or quiver plots) show the direction and the strength of a vector associated with a 2D or 3D points. They are typically used to show the strength of the gradient over the plane or a surface area.
 Violin plot : Violin plots are a method of plotting numeric data. They are similar to box plots, except that they also show the probability density of the data at different values (in the simplest case this could be a histogram). Typically violin plots will include a marker for the median of the data and a box indicating the interquartile range, as in standard box plots.  Overlaid on this box plot is a kernel density estimation. Violin plots are available as extensions to a number of software packages, including R through the vioplot library, and Stata through the vioplot add-in.

Plots for specific quantities
 Arrhenius plot : This plot compares the logarithm of a reaction rate (, ordinate axis) plotted against inverse temperature (, abscissa). Arrhenius plots are often used to analyze the effect of temperature on the rates of chemical reactions.
 Dot plot (bioinformatics) : This plot compares two biological sequences and is a graphical method that allows the identification of regions of close similarity between them. It is a kind of recurrence plot.
 Lineweaver–Burk plot : This plot compares the reciprocals of reaction rate and substrate concentration. It is used to represent and determine enzyme kinetics.

3D plots

Examples
Types of graphs and their uses vary very widely. A few typical examples are:
 Simple graph: Supply and demand curves, simple graphs used in economics to relate supply and demand to price. The graphs can be used together to determine the economic equilibrium (essentially, to solve an equation).
 Simple graph used for reading values: the bell-shaped normal or Gaussian probability distribution, from which, for example,  the probability of a man's height being in a specified range can be derived, given data for the adult male population.
 Very complex graph: the psychrometric chart, relating temperature, pressure, humidity, and other quantities.
 Non-rectangular coordinates: the above all use two-dimensional rectangular coordinates; an example of a graph using polar coordinates, sometimes in three dimensions, is the antenna radiation pattern chart, which represents the power radiated in all directions by an antenna of specified type.

A construction sector recording its weakest monthly performance in seven years doesn't need post Brexit "dithering" over major infrastructure decisions.
Statistics from Federation of Master Builders show construction performance in June was the weakest for seven years.
The FMB says the stats are a cautionary sign of the damage that current uncertainty is causing to the building industry.
Berry said: "June's PMI figures, which show a huge dip in construction output, reflect our fears that uncertainty over the outcome of the EU referendum would hit our sector.
"In the wake of the UK's vote to leave the EU, there is a growing concern that this period of uncertainty is only just beginning. Construction is an industry that is particularly vulnerable to dips in confidence and it appears that many clients were hesitant to commit to new projects as they were unsure of what the future held.
"The results underline the importance of clear leadership from the government – it's imperative that it attempts to offset any uncertainty firms will be feeling.
"The announcement by the chancellor that he would seek to lower corporation tax to below 15% is a positive step, as was Greg Clark's recent reaffirmation that the government will still aim to build one million new homes by 2020. However, much more needs to be done.
"Dithering over infrastructure decisions will send out entirely the wrong message to firms of all sizes. More than ever, investment is needed in a sector that generates £2.84 in the wider economy for every £1 spent.

To Keep Drivers From Leaving, Uber Tries To Treat Them Better
Liam James Doyle
For the business to survive, Uber has to repair its relationship with drivers, which leaders at the company say is "broken."
Uber's leadership already has a lot on its plate, starting with finding a new CEO after former chief Travis Kalanick resigned abruptly last month. But that's not all the tech giant has to do. For the business to survive, Uber also has to repair its relationship with drivers, which leaders at the company say is "broken."
On Tuesday, in an ongoing effort dubbed the "180 Days of Change," the company is announcing reforms to its harsh termination policies and launching a hotline so that drivers in distress can reach a person at corporate headquarters.
Janelle Sallenave is in charge of improving the way Uber responds to drivers' and riders' needs, disputes and accidents. It's clear to her that drivers, the lifeblood of the transportation platform, are choosing to leave because of poor treatment. This is an existential threat to the business, valued at $70 billion, and it needs to be tackled, she says.
Sallenave persuaded the executive leadership team, which is steering the ship while the Uber Board looks for a new CEO, to approve the creation of a hotline. Until now, Uber has not had a phone number for drivers to call, even in emergencies — such as an accident on the road or a violent passenger.
In June, NPR reported on the difficulties this omission has created for drivers, in a series called "The Faceless Boss." Sallenave agrees with the characterization. "As we've grown into a global, scalable company," she says, "we need to move away from the facelessness of what the company has inadvertently become."
In earlier days, Sallenave says, each city had a local team to oversee Uber operations and drivers might have the cell number of the general manager. But once Uber centralized its system, in an effort to aggressively scale up, "we were so focused on the rocket ship of growth" that corporate leaders let communication systems fall apart.
"It evolved in a very organic way unfortunately to something that almost feels like a chatbot," she says. That is not a compliment. Drivers were forced to communicate with Uber via text messaging — six exchanges on average. Now, under the new system, they would be able to make one phone call instead.
Uber is also reforming its three-strikes law. Previously, a driver with three complaints would be terminated from the platform. It would not matter whether the driver had completed 10 rides or 10,000. The policy was adversarial, and assumed drivers did not have positive intent.
Now the company will consider a number of factors: how long a person has been driving, overall ratings, who are the people filing complaints. The decision to terminate, or in Uber lingo "deactivate," a driver will still be made by software, but using a far more complex formula that Sallenave hopes is "holistic."
Uber is also working to replicate an appeals panel that the company piloted in Seattle, for drivers who believe they've been unfairly terminated.
More than half a million people a month in the U.S. drive for Uber. The company has not disclosed how many choose to leave the platform. But as Sallenave acknowledges, in the gig economy it's easy to leave one job for another, to switch from Uber to competitor Lyft or a food delivery service.
Drivers have welcomed Uber's recent overtures — such as the move to allow in-app tipping — but it's not yet clear whether this effort will inspire loyalty, or if other changes by Uber will undermine these efforts.
Dawn Gearhart, policy coordinator with the Teamsters Local 117 in Seattle, says Uber is feeling pressure on every front — not just from competitors, but also from efforts to organize drivers into labor unions such as hers.
When a company feels threatened by organizing, she says, it's "standard practice" to dole out small wins to workers, such as vacation or a slight raise.
"These things are not happening because somebody at the company woke up and they decided they were feeling better about the workers," Gearhart says. "They just want to make sure that they maintain the balance of power."
She also points out that in recent weeks, many Uber drivers are earning less per ride because the company changed its fare structure.
A study commissioned by Uber indicates that even when fares go down, drivers' earnings remain stable because demand for rides is up.

The American people, through the United States European Command Humanitarian Assistance program provided $90,000 for the material to build the garage bay and an additional $170,000 for the renovation of the primary school including new doors, windows, radiators, roof, and interior. Twenty-four sailors from the U.S. Navy "Seabees" Construction Battalion 74 completed both projects this summer. The projects in Demir Kapija were part of the MEDCEUR 11 exercise which took place at the nearby Krivolak Training Area from June 7-14, 2011.
"I hope that when you are sitting in these classrooms when the weather turns cold, it is not only the radiators that keep you warm, but also the friendship we have developed over the course of this project," said Tarquinto amidst throngs of smiling children, teachers and parents at the official school opening ceremony. The school renovation was completed with the technical assistance of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Primary Education Project in Macedonia.
Earlier this year, the United States provided $60,000 for two industrial washing machines at the Mental Disability Center as well as $10,000 for a new city water pump.
In a special city council session commemorating the 67th anniversary of the liberation of Demir Kapija, the Embassy was recognized in front of hundreds of residents for its special contributions in the development and promotion of the Municipality's infrastructure.
Since 2007, EUCOM has supported 27 education and health care related projects across Macedonia totaling more than $2,000,000.
