Activities and Examples: Using Data in the Classroom Today
This collection contains links to on-line activites for teaching STEM concepts with data of all types and examples that describe ways in which on-line, published, and student-collected data are currently used in teaching and learning.
This collection includes both data activities identified from across the web as well as a local example collection.
The initial example collection was created in collaboration with the Geological Society of America where the examples were given in a poster session "Using Data to Teach Earth Processes: An Illustrated Community Discussion" sponsored by the NAGT On the Cutting Edge program. We invite you to contribute additional examples in any of the STEM disciplines.
Each example includes a description of the activity, its learning goals, the context in which it is used, information on the needed data, tools, and activities and suggestions for evaluation.

HOLLYWOOD - Supervising sound editor Mark Stoeckinger and the team at Soundelux recently completed work on Unstoppable
, the new film from 20th Century Fox and director Tony Scott.
Soundelux went to great lengths to create realistic sounds for the film, which centers around an out-of-control freight train. The team went to train yards in California and New Mexico to make field recordings, and positioned mics between cars and rails to record specifics. Dynamic braking elements are part of the signature sound that makes up the villain train.

Sage Art Gallery and Dance Instructor Lauded in Metroland's "Best of the Capital Region 2012"
Albany & Troy, NY – The Sage Colleges are proud to learn that two significant players in the arts at Sage were voted best in their category in the Capital Region by alternative newsweekly Metroland. The popular round-up of area cultural favorites was released in the July 19, 2012 issue and online.
Best Gallery: Opalka Gallery
The Opalka Gallery was named "Best Gallery" – "A strong year for the decade-old (but still fresh and new) gallery on the Sage Campus. The Mark McCarty photography exhibit Skin was particularly memorable."
The Opalka Gallery is the formal exhibition facility of The Sage Colleges. Located on Sage's Albany campus, the Opalka's primary concentration is on work by professional artists from outside the region. The gallery frequently features multi-disciplinary projects and hosts poetry readings, recitals, and symposia, often in conjunction with its exhibitions.
Two major exhibits are planned for this fall at the Opalka:
(for more details, visit www.sage.edu/opalka/schedule/
- "Arrested Motion/Perilous Balance" by sculptor John Van Alstine
- Curated by Ruth Hall Daly
- August 27 – October 14, 2012
- Reception: Friday, September 7 from 5-9 pm
- Van Alstine carries the union of natural elements and man-made materials to a new plane and creates an aesthetically stunning marriage of centuries-old stone with contemporary metals.
- "In Search of the Miraculous: One Thing Leads to Another" by graphic designer Milton Glaser
- November 2 – December 14, 2012
- Reception: Friday, November 2 from 5-9 pm
- For many, Glaser is the personification of American graphic design. He is best known for co-founding New York Magazine, creating the enduring I Love NY campaign, and innumerable posters including the iconic Bob Dylan.
The Opalka Gallery was constructed in 2002 with funds generously donated by the Opalka family. The 7,400 square foot facility includes a vaulted gallery and a 75-seat lecture/presentation hall. The Opalka replaced Rathbone Gallery, which served The Sage Colleges for 25 years and garnered international attention for the quality and significance of its exhibitions. The Opalka Gallery is a member of The Exhibition Alliance, the Association of Academic Museums and Galleries, and the Museum Association of New York.
Best Dance Company: Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company
The Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company was named "Best Dance Company" – "Excellent in conception and performance are the key to Ellen Sinopoli's aesthetic longevity; community outreach is the other."
Sinopoli is a dance instructor & studio artist in residence at Russell Sage College. She founded the Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company in 1991, after settling in the Capital Region from Boston and New York City. As the artistic director and choreographer, she has created 35 new works for her dancers. The company is the resident dance company at The Egg in Albany. Beyond her role as artistic director and choreographer, she is noted for her talents as a master teacher and for her efforts to educate young people about dance. She is a teaching artist for the arts-in-education Institute for the Capital Region and North Country Sites. In addition to teaching at Russell Sage, she has taught at Skidmore College, Union College, Albany Berkshire Ballet, Saratoga City Ballet and Guilderland Ballet.
- The Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company will hold a site-specific performance at the Opalka Gallery choreographed in response to the exhibited works of sculptor John Van Alstine on Friday, September 21 at 7:30 p.m. This performance is open and free to the public and will consist of three 15-minute segments.

BOULDER — The men's team that Colorado coach Mark Wetmore will take to the NCAA cross country championships Saturday may not be his most talented, but it has been one of his most rewarding.
A team without a returning scorer from last year's Pac-12 champions won the conference title again and was ranked No. 2 in the country for most of the season. The Buffaloes slipped to seventh in the final ranking, after a subpar day put them third at last week's regional in Fort Collins, but they figure to be one of four or five teams that could win Saturday in Louisville, Ky., if heavily favored Oklahoma State stumbles.
The CU men are seeking their fourth NCAA title since 2001.
"Having done this as long as I have, it takes something, if not unique, special, to make one year more exciting than the last two or three or four or 20," said Wetmore, who is in his 21st year at CU, his 18th as head coach. "The fact that none of last year's scoring five returned this year, and we won the conference championship again, was special."
None of the CU men were stars in high school. None are collegiate stars yet, although sophomore Blake Theroux may become one next year. CU lost its top returning runner, Joe Bosshard, to hip surgery in October.
"It's more of a working-man's team, but it's very young and there may be stars of the future in there," Wetmore said. "For the time being, it needs to be a team that finishes in a tight pack, a team that lives off its fourth and fifth men. Unlike many — maybe most — of our teams in the past, we're relatively deep. Our 10th man is better this year than ever before.
"It's a little deeper and it's very young, so it'll be a good team this year, better next and better next."
It was huge last year for the CU men and women to win Pac-12 titles their first year in a conference that includes heavyweights Oregon and Stanford. It was even bigger for the men to do it again this year with all new faces.
"It gives testimony to how strong a program Mark Wetmore has built," said senior captain Martin Medina. "You take a bunch of blue-collar guys and have them work really hard, and the payoff's there. You see how hard work has progressed and it shows. It just shows what we've built together, and I think it's great how this year's team is completely different from last year's team."
The CU women go into Saturday's meet ranked 23rd. Olympian Shalaya Kipp, the reigning NCAA steeplechase champion, took time off to recover after the London Games. Wetmore said he will be happy if she improves on her 19th-place finish from last year.

Monday night was supposed to be the night that turned the 2013 Yankee season around. At least that was the narrative we were expected to believe after Dan Barbarisi posted his story on Monday night's postgame closed-door meeting. There were words like "fun," "energy," and "intensity," and the obligatory "our postseason starts now" message was thrown out there. The team didn't want to fall into a pattern of accepting the losing culture that has defined them since about mid-May. They had to come together, they had to stay positive, and they had to start turning things around towards a playoff push Tuesday night.
The reality is that this team was dead where it stood and has been for some time. The fact that a team meeting was called to rally the troops and get some positive vibes going served only to confirm that previous sentence. I can't remember who said it, but I remember hearing a player once sum up team meetings like this perfectly: "Winners win. Losers meet." When it's reached the point where everybody in the clubhouse is unspokenly aware that they've become losers and a meeting has to be called to address it, it's already too late. Hell, an unnamed player in Barbarisi's story practically admitted that when he spoke to him.
To further drive that point home, just look at what the Yankees have done since that team meeting. They've lost 2 games in a row, completing a sweep at the hands of the 2nd worst team in baseball. Last night's loss came in spectacularly crushing fashion. Early lead that they could never tack onto, late comeback punctuated by a game-tying groundball single through the hole with 2 outs and an 0-2 count in the bottom of the 9th against Mariano Rivera, regained lead in extras, second blown lead and a walk-off loss the following half-inning on 3 straight 2-out hits. An almost competent start by CC Sabathia wasted. When you lose a series like that, forget about calling team meetings to talk about your attitude. Call up Jon Taffer and just shut it down because the season is over.
I wanted to believe that the Yankees would find a way this year despite all the poor decision making in the front office, and for the first few months of the season I did believe it. I really did, gang. They were hanging tough, pitching well, and I was drinking the "wait until they get healthy" Kool-Aid. It was only the first week or so after the All Star break that I really started to recognize that this club wasn't going anywhere. That reality has slapped me in the face pretty hard over the last few weeks and last night was the final blow. The Yankees are 57-56, 1 game over .500. They're 11.5 games out in the AL East, 7 out of the second Wild Card spot, and there's a very good chance they enter next week under .500 after the Detroit Tigers and their 11-game winning streak come to town this weekend.
I'm not one of those delusional "World Series or bust" Yankee fans/writers and I hope I don't come off that way, but I want them to win and I root for them to win. As a fan, that's what it's about for me, wanting my team to play well and win. I don't care if the players are nice guys, or how hard they try, or what they've done in the past. I just want them to win. When they don't it sucks. When the Yankees aren't in the postseason and I don't have meaningful baseball to watch in October, that sucks. It's going to be a real sucky October this year, boys and girls, because try as they might, this team isn't going anywhere. They shone the light on that fact with their team meeting on Monday, and they confirmed it with their play on the field the last 2 nights.

Dunbar bridge closure schedule changes
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Contractors and state highways officials have again changed the inspection schedule for the former Dunbar Toll Bridge between South Charleston and Dunbar. As a result, the bridge will be completely closed at night next week.
Planners had originally wanted to close one lane of the bridge during the day for about two weeks so contractors could conduct a regularly scheduled bridge inspection. But the bridge is one of the detours across the Kanawha River while the Dick Henderson Memorial Bridge between St. Albans and Nitro is closed for replacement.
"We had a lot of complaints and concerns about it," state Department of Transportation spokeswoman Carrie Bly said.
DOT officials have been adjusting the closure schedule to try to find an arrangement that works best.
Bly said officials had decided to try closing one lane of the bridge at night, but have now decided to try closing the bridge down completely at night next week. Contractors hope the new schedule will allow them to finish the inspection sooner. The new schedule is:
| This week, one lane of the bridge will be closed between 10 p.m. Thursday and 6 a.m. Friday, and again from 10 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Saturday.
| This weekend, one lane of the bridge will be closed between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
| Next week, the bridge will be completely closed from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., Monday through Friday.
For information about the bridge closures, call 1-800-642-9292.

Eight thefts, mainly of laptop cases, have been reported on the line between Carlisle and Crewe since 3 September, according to the BBC report
Andy Cordial, managing director at storage systems integration specialist Origin, said that although the laptop thief has been captured on CCTV - and his image published on the BBC news site - the culprit will be difficult to catch.
"The section of the line on which the laptop thief appears to be operating - Stockport to Manchester - is one of the busiest outside of London, with Manchester Piccadilly station offering a lot of escape routes, and he is going to be difficult to catch, especially if he changes his appearance," he said.

Elenei is an unseen character in Game of Thrones. She is deceased when the series begins and has only appeared in "The Complete Guide to Westeros: The Age of Heroes" featurette.
According to legend, Elenei was daughter of the sea god and the wind goddess. She fell in love with a mortal man named Durran, who took her as his wife. By giving up her maidenhead to him, Elenei became mortal, while Durran earned the hatred of Elenei's parents.
In rage, the gods sent a storm to destroy Durran's keep over Shipbreaker Bay. Declaring war against them, Durran built a new castle, larger and more formidable than the previous one, though this one too was destroyed by the divine storms.
Four more keeps Durran built and lost to the fury of the gods. Finally, the seventh castle, which Durran built with the aid of Brandon the Builder, withstood the rage of the Elenei's parents and became known as Storm's End, while Durran earned the nickname of "Durran's Godsgrief."[1]

The filter is fine and fit as it should. The pre filter covers are kind of a waste in my opinion. Seemed like a great idea up front, just change the covers and reduce the need to pull the filter as often. However, once I had completed several very dusty rides, I pulled the seat to change the little filter cover and discovered it had just fallen off the filter and was laying in the air box, so the filter was just as dirty anyways. Still, the actual filter makes it a worthwhile purchase.Read All Reviews

The carousel at Kiddieland made its final turn on Sunday,
marking the end of the line for the Melrose Park venue, which has
delighted Chicagoland families for 80 years.
Kiddieland, which was founded by local contractor Arthur Fritz
and opened in 1929 with six ponies for kids to ride, closed its
doors Sunday night.
The saddest part of the closing? It seems to have been spurred
by a rift among the family members who own the park. As was widely
reported today, half own the 17 acres the park
is situated on and the lease, and the other half own the park
Ongoing disputes led to the lease not being renewed. A mainstay
of Chicago family fun brought down by a family feud. Read the

Long before we humans learned to reap what we sowed, we made our living foraging. That's why harvesting comestibles in the woods can be not just a source of nourishment but one of deep psychological satisfaction as well. So claims John Kallas, Ph.D. (pictured at right), a wild-food workshop leader, lecturer, and writer in Portland, Oregon, who is used to roasting cattails over the campfire while his buddies dehydrate fettuccine Alfredo. Wild food can be dang tasty—but every bush chef needs a mentor, because inexperience can spoil the soup. Kallas recalls an early effort to make a birch-bark spaghetti he'd read about. "I dutifully cut the bark into strips and stuffed them into my chicken broth. It was like eating strands of dental floss." He discovered later that he should have used the cambium—the thin, tender growth ring inside the bark—and only from recently downed trees, since stripping cambium is harmful to live ones. "When you forage with an expert or go to a wild-food festival, the possibilities open up," he says. "You become one with nature in a totally new way."Prime your palate with some of Kallas's simple recipes and discover the joys of eating alfresco. UTENSILS: The Bush Chef's Tool Belt Kallas recommends this basic kit for any foray: scissors (eight-to-nine inches long) in a belted sheath; a fixed-blade knife in a sheath; a hand-size spade-pick combo; a spray mister to keep green things moist; white plastic storage bags (they reflect sunlight); and a fanny pack held open by a plastic tub (not high in style points, but it'll keep your hands free for harvesting). FIELD TRIPS: Gustatory Gatherings Near YouA wild-food fest is the best way to forage with folks who know their water hemlock (deadly) from their wild carrots (delicious). Here's where the outdoor gourmets are going for groceries in 2007. April 27-29: North Carolina Wild Food Weekend; in Reid ($100; www.wildfoodadventures.com) June 22-25: GingerRoot Rendezvous (Kallas's signature event); in Hood River, Oregon ($290; www.wildfoodadventures.com) August 25-27: Midwest Wild Harvest Festival; in Fall Creek, Wisconsin ($100; www.foragersharvest.com)
CORE KNOWLEDGEToss It: Dandelions are high in vitamin A, calcium, and iron and can also be surprisingly tasty. "The trick," says John Kallas, "is to harvest them in late winter or early spring, when they're getting moisture from the soil and very little direct sunlight." Julienne the leaves and sprinkle them onto a salad; boil them for three minutes and eat them like you would cooked greens (it's best to discard the lower third of the leaf); or use the petals to make a dandelion soup.Boil It: "Eight parts of a cattail are edible," says Kallas. "They're really substantial, and you can find them anyplace that's wet," including roadside ditches. Simplest method: Get 'em while the spike—composed of protein-and-carb-rich pollen—is still green. Boil the upper part until tender, flavor with salt and butter, and eat like corn on the cob. Grind It: "Eat acorns raw and it's a totally bitter experience—unless you're a squirrel. The key for us is getting out the tannin," Kallas says. Grind the nuts into a coarse flour, percolate with water for 15 minutes, then strain and dry. Use this powder as a version of cornmeal—to fry up acorn cakes, make acorn porridge, or cook acorn pudding—and you'll be the envy of every small woodland creature.

Not Quite Reasonable
Judaism has an undeserved reputation for rationality. But reason is overrated anyway.
If studied carefully one can understand some info of the Trinity and the intense credibility of Jesus.But since you have not experienced His love you reject Him. If you want real satisfaction you should look to Jesus.
I continue to stand in the tradition of haJaon Saadia al-Fayyumi, haRambam, Rabbenu Bahheya ibn Paquda, ibn Azra, Rabbenu Shelomo ibn Jabirol, Rabbenu Yehuda haLewi, Mori Yehheya Qafahh, Mori Yusef Qafahh, the Mahariss, the Rav, and others who understand Yahhaduth in a rational sense, understanding that superstitions are spurrious and that tales of satan and shedim are just that - tales and illustrations. Oh, btw, Mashiahh ban Yusef is not from the Qabbala - he is actually mentioned by Hhazal in writings that existed before the Zohar.
I was brought up that we Jews are rational because our actions are not based on Faith. We thought that Jews had followed the kosher laws for centuries and to continue these practices, with some moderation, helped us identify with other Jews across time and provided a bridge to Jews in future generations. It had nothing to do with any BELIEF that God cared whether Jews ate porkchops. When one gains Knowledge, he has no need for Faith. Faith requires Ignorance, and thus, people should never act on the basis of Faith. While we may lack knowledge about what is best in a particular situation, we Jews try to make an educated guess about the best course of action based on the facts at hand. Faith is detrimental to being moral. It is far wiser to admit that we lack knowledge about certain matters than it is to full the gap with Faith. By denying the areas of our ignorance, we are less likely to seek knowledge. Because Christianity is based on Faith, it is inherently irrational.
mystical Judaism agrees with an experience I had on yom kippur of 92 long before I knew anything about Judaism and six years before I heard the word Kabbalah. Nothing about religion is very reasonable before this experience and EVERYTHING about religion is as plain as the nose on your face after. When Joseph was promised the blessings of heaven and the "treasures of the deep" in Gen 49, God meant he would see what was not only below reason, beyond human reason but GIVE Joseph a BRAND NEW WAY to reason. Moshiach ben Joseph, is the hidden Messiah some Jews refer to in Kabbalah. When you see the mysteries and treasure of the deep, you understand that saying.So why do we need faith? To train us for this very deep dark and very fearful time of seeing LIFE without our human reasoning or feelings. WE SEE THE ID..primordial man. I saw that and without faith we couldnt endure. It may be too late to seek it at that point.

I want to use JavaFx with clojure.
I am aware of http://nailthatbug.net/2011/06/clojure-javafx-2-0-simple-app/
Is there a way to make JavaFX work with Clojure using native-deps in lein instead?
I want to use JavaFx with clojure.
I am aware of http://nailthatbug.net/2011/06/clojure-javafx-2-0-simple-app/
Is there a way to make JavaFX work with Clojure using native-deps in lein instead?
Because JavaFx has native dependencies your option are limited to, ]
Because the tutorial you link to covers the case where the user of your package/program installs JavaFx on their own, by using
native-deps can be used to ship native dependencies with your package. You just need to add all the .so, .dll, .etc files in the appropriate directories. I think the projects github page does a better job than I of explaining the structure.
I've created a simple Clojure and JavaFX example on Github. Testing on Ubuntu I had to install the JavaFX runtime into my local Maven repository, using the deploy:deploy-file target (install:install-file did not work for me).
Make sure you have the following arguments set correctly:
In the project.clj, I added the dependency based on the -DgroupId and -DartifactId values when installing the JAR into the repository. If you use change these values, make sure to change the dependency accordingly:
Java was able to load the binary libraries without any problems. If Java reports problems loading a binary library, e.g.
check out these two question on SO:
What is LD_LIBRARY_PATH and how to use it?
The link in the question is broken so I can't see your example, but with Java 8, JavaFX is now part of the standard JDK/JRE. I therefore expect the native dependency issue to be irrelevant at this point.
Not sure if this will work for others, but this appears (so far) to have worked for me:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=javafx -DartifactId=javafx -Dversion=2.1.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/lib/jfxrt.jar
I have no idea why this works, but I believe jfxrt.jar has the files I need. Then, after this, I kindle it in project.clj as
in the :dependencies (not :native-deps) section.
[Having written this, I really have no idea why this even appears to work.]

EURUSD Slides As ECB Shrugs At LTRO-Implied Deleveraging
It seems the FX market is just a little edgy this morning. A few brief words from ECB member Benoit Coeure on the possibility of short-term LTRO repayment (if rates are cut to negative) appears to have reminded traders that LTRO does have a deadline and that several hundred billion in loans will inevitably be repaid from the LTRO1 and LTRO2 treasure chest. This reminder of implied deleveraging of the ECB's balance sheet triggered a drop from 1.34 to 1.33 overnight as the verbal intervention continues. The concerns over LTRO repayments has also triggered some serious "violent and quite extreme" snaps in EURIBOR yesterday as short-term refunding may become more difficult with a less large cash reserve standing around (waiting to be fungibly used as risk capital).
EURUSD plunge
and the rising EURIBOR rates...
Charts: Bloomberg
- advertisements -
Which crap should I buy again?
Is it inevitable that LTRO1 or LTRO2 will be repaid? I realize they are a central bank, but there's always default/restructuring. I mean, get ready for LTRO3 or SUPERLTRO or THE NEW LTRO.
Euro has been in a corrective move up since early 2012.
Moves down like this morning indicate wave 3 down, but we will wait to see about the follow through. Long term, the Euro is headed down, far below parity with the US Dollar.
The western world has far too many mandatory capital mis-allocation and mal-investment obigations. The liquidity trap grows and will soon consume all fiat. Stupid fucks, the more they print, the more debt needs to be serviced. Exponential equations are indeed a bitch. The west will get it's "jubilee" soon, but it won't be what most are expecting. Hedge accordingly.
a plunge from 1.336 to 1.330 ???? LOL be real man !
Nothing to worry about.....they'll just print more and even it out.
LTRO has to be repaid??? No bank has counted it in! Wasn't it a gift?
Shocking... if so, another LTRO is needed to repay the LTRO.
All this will be covered in the next press conference.
A plunge is only when you've bet your shirt on it...others might call it a blip.
Nothing to see here, or anywhere....all is well buy stawks!
SPREAD THE WORD - EUROPEAN DOOM! SPAIN is going to EXPLODE TODAY - MASSIVE GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION DISCOVERED, Demonstrations scheduled
It's kind of funny, really. When other currencies are deemed too strong, their central banks' kneejerk reaction is to print and print until their fingers bleed to try to "solve" it. The ECB doesn't have to print anything; they just send out one of their top brass to make a statement, and down goes the currency.

ScrumbleShip is the most accurate space combat simulation devised to date. Gather resources, construct a capital ship out of individual blocks, then pilot it with AI or human help against other players.
A pretty cool yacht by Commander Keen. The wire blocks are interesting!
I had to save space to afford a large fuel tank and a spacious cockpit so I simply put the wiring into the walls. Worked out great in the end.
Intriguing design :)
I love the simplistic design, and the solar panels. The slope blocks add so much though! Couldn't live without 'em. :)
Aren't the solar panels underneath the first layer sort of redundant? As wouldn't they not really get much light..? Though.. I suppose it depends on the angle but... ehh I guess it doesn't really matter when those systems aren't even in the game yet.

The Louisiana Women's Policy and Research Commission was created by the Louisiana legislature in 2003 to advise the governor on women's policy and to address the needs and concerns of women in Louisiana. The commission identifies and analyzes trends of negative impact regarding the health and prosperity of women and monitors the status of women in Louisiana in order to evaluate economic, educational, health concerns, needs and hardships.

In 2009, City Council reviewed information gathered about the condition of key City facilities and potential uses for the West End Building. The information, compiled in the West End Building Decision Process Report, includes all studies, materials and public outreach that took place during the six months prior to creation of the report.
The West End Building Decision Process Report contains an Alternatives Analysis of the West End Building and other key City facilities, including City Hall, the Public Library, Maintenance Services Building, South Shore Fire Station and the Adult Community Center. As part of the Analysis, each facility is reviewed with respect to the following areas: Building Condition, Space and Program Needs, Facility Options and Forecasted Costs, and Public Opinion Research Results. The Report also includes various options, corresponding planning level cost information, and possible financing options.
The final strategy includes providing safe, adequate and sustainable public facilities, foregoing the idea of a City government-initiated community center at the West End Building, maintaining the City's financial strength and stability, and developing a long term implementation plan. The strategy also prioritizes implementation steps.

Saying Chris Brown's name sort of leaves this odd taste in your mouth. Even if you're slinging mud, you're still touching mud… and that's just dirty.
Moving along, here's a round-up of what we've recently come to find since yesterday's reports. Included are reports of the reasons for the fight, reports on the absence of a fight altogether, how serious Ocean is on handling the matter, and Brown's recent public reference on the ordeal.
TMZ has found out that the fight started once Ocean refused to shake hands with Brown – resulting in Brown sucker-punching Ocean, which escalated into a brawl between both stars' posses. Also noted was that prior to the fight, Ocean was said to have taken Brown's parking spot at the studio… Yeah, I know. (Source)
On the other hand, Chris Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos apparently got his hands on footage of the incident, which is being offered to authorities. Included on the tape is the lack of any actual contact from either Brown nor Ocean. Although the footage only shows the later part of the fight and not the beginning. (Soure: TMZ)
According to Steve Whitmore, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Sheriffs Department said in a statement that Frank Ocean "is desirous of prosecution in this incident." (Source: Reuters)
Finally, while no formal statment was made by either side, Brown put up the following on his Instagram account:
Painting the way I feel today. Focus on what matters!

The Choral Director's Problem
Don't let an important part of
your practice go by the wayside.
By Jack Runninger, O.D.
"Dogs must be carried on escalator," read the sign at the Irish store.
"Where on earth . . ." complained O'Reilly, as he contemplated how he was going to get to the next floor, "am I ever gonna find a dog at this time of day?"
Just as O'Reilly misunderstood the sign, I can't help but wonder if some O.D.s, with their increasing interest in eye pathology, may misunderstand the importance of vocational lens prescribing.
Heckuva time
"I'm having a heckuva time getting glasses I can see with while conducting," a 50-year-old college choral director told me.
I recommended that he inquire about the possibility of monovision contact lenses to use when conducting, with the near lens focused for his music stand distance, or try bifocals with a large lower segment focused at his music stand distance.
Solving problems such as these was one of the most interesting parts of practice for me. And it was one of my best practice builders. Here are a few examples of how solving these problems can benefit patients and build your reputation.

Dr. Jack Bridwell wrote an article for OM years ago describing care for a presbyopic astronaut.
With zero gravity during space walks, the astronaut would approach near visual tasks from many angles, so that a regular bifocal wouldn't work properly. Dr. Bridwell solved his predicament with a vertical Executive-style bifocal, with the outer part of the lenses focused for distance. The 15-mm nasal portion of each lens had the appropriate near prescription.
A Golf Digest published an article I wrote a while back describing bifocal segment placements and powers for presbyopic golfers. One idea used an Executive-style bifocal focused at the ball to eliminate awkward head positions.
Patients from as far as Ohio and Michigan came to me for exams after reading that article. Plus, I got many letters requesting referrals to O.D.s who knew how to do this prescribing.
She was embarrassed
The late Dr. Louie Jacques told of fitting a Hollywood still photographer who needed to see at 40" through the bottom of his lenses, at infinity through the middle and at 12" overhead. Dr. Jacques solved his dilemma with appropriately focused top and bottom segments.
"He's doing fine," the man's wife reported. "Except I get so embarrassed when we go to a restaurant, and he reads the menu while holding it above his head."
A Popular Mechanics recognized the importance of occupational prescribing when it published an article I wrote about upper seg prescribing for electricians, cabinet makers and others who need to see at close range above eye level.
Too little, too late
"I went to Dr. Mack Ulopathy because I was having a little trouble reading," a new patient told me. "I can read better with the new bifocals he prescribed, but now I can't see at arm's length, which I need to do for my job.
"I went back, and he told me I needed trifocals, after he'd just sold me an expensive pair of bifocals!"
After we'd solved his dilemma by prescribing progressive lenses, he made an enlightening comment that every O.D. should ponder:
"Dr. Ulopathy may be a good ophthalmologist, but he sure isn't a very good optometrist!"
