Press release
Just one day off can hamper children's life chances
New report reveals every extra day missed from school can affect grades.
Missing school for just a few days a year can damage pupils’ chances of gaining good
GCSEs
, according to a new report published by the Department for Education today (24 March 2016).
The new
research shows that overall absence had a negative link to attainment
, with every extra day missed associated with a lower chance of achieving 5 or more good
GCSEs
or equivalent at grades A* to C including in English and mathematics, or gaining the gold standard English Baccalaureate (EBacc).
The research backs the government’s clampdown on absence and truancy to ensure more pupils regularly attend school and leave with the qualifications they need to succeed in modern Britain.
The latest annual
pupil absence statistics for 2014 to 2015
were also published today and confirm that school absence has remained at near historic low levels. In particular, they show that:
-
the overall rate of absence was 4.6% compared to 6% in the same period in 2009 to 2010 - demonstrating that the government’s and schools’ approach to tackling absence is working
-
the slight 0.1% rise in overall absence since last year was driven by increases in absence due to illness - the most prevalent reason for taking time off from school, accounting for over 60% of all absence. This is in line with the rise in influenza between 2013 to 2015 and 2014 to 2015 seen in Public Health England statistics
-
the tightening of the rules around term-time holidays is also working - in 2014 to 2015, 13.8% of pupil enrolments had missed at least half a day for family holidays (both authorised and unauthorised), a decrease from 15.0% in 2013 to 2014
-
term-time holidays (authorised and unauthorised) accounted for 7.5% of all absences in 2014 to 2015 compared to 8.5% in 2013 to 2014 - equating to 4.1 million school days lost due to term-time holidays, down from 4.4 million in the previous year
-
nearly 200,000 fewer pupils were persistently absent from school than in the same period in 2009 to 2010, with the persistent absence rate remaining at historic lows at 3.7% compared to 6.8% in 2009 to 2010
Schools Minister Nick Gibb said:
This new research is further evidence that missing school for even a day can mean a child is less likely to achieve good grades, which can have a damaging effect on their life chances.
Today’s absence figures are good news - showing that schools are making real progress with almost 200,000 fewer pupils regularly missing school compared to 2010.
We introduced a tougher approach in 2010 to clamp down on children regularly missing lessons by increasing fines. Together with our reforms to improve behaviour, we have put teachers firmly back in charge of their classrooms.
The government introduced a number of reforms to help school leaders and teachers to improve attendance and tackle poor behaviour, including:
-
changing the regulations in 2013 so that headteachers only grant leave from school in exceptional circumstances
-
tackling persistent absence by reducing the threshold by which absence is defined as persistent from 20% to 15% from October 2011. This threshold was further reduced to 10% in September 2015. This means schools are held to a higher standard in performance tables than before
-
empowering teachers to crack down on bad behaviour by making clear teachers can use reasonable force to maintain behaviour, extending their searching powers and allowing teachers to impose same-day detentions
-
appointing behaviour expert Tom Bennett to lead reviews to ensure teachers are fully trained in dealing with disruptive children, and to look deeper into tackling poor behaviour more generally
Notes to editors
-
Read ‘
the link between absence and attainment at
KS2
and
KS4
’ research. The research explores the link between overall absence (and individual reasons for absence) and attainment when taking prior attainment and pupil characteristics into account and shows that, for each
KS2
and
KS4
measure, overall absence had a statistically significant negative link to attainment - ie every extra day missed was associated with a lower attainment outcome. Extending this to look at individual reasons for absence did not add a greater understanding of the link between absence and attainment.

After leaving Hatteras not another evidence of land was seen by the passengers of the Nancy Bell for three days. At last one afternoon “Captain Li” pointed out and called their attention to a slender shaft rising apparently from the sea itself, far to the westward. He told them that it was the lighthouse at Jupiter Inlet, well down on the coast of Florida, and they regarded it with great interest, as giving them their first glimpse of the land that was so soon to be their home.
The weather had by this time become very warm and instead of wearing the thick clothing with which they had started, the Elmers found the very thinnest of their last summer’s things all that they could bear.
Mark had almost forgotten his seasickness, and spent much of his time with Jan Jansen, who taught him to make knots and splices, to box the compass and to steer. Both Mark and Ruth were tanned brown by the hot sun, and Mr. Elmer said the warmth of the air had already made a new man of him.
Before the light but steady trade-wind that kept the air deliciously cool, the Nancy Bell ran rapidly down the coast and along the great Florida Reef, which for two hundred miles bounds that coast on the south.
Captain Drew stood far out from the reef, being well aware of the strong currents that set towards it from all directions, and which have enticed many a good ship to her destruction. Others, however, were not so wise as he, and at daylight one morning the watch on deck sang out,
“Wreck off the starboard bow!”
This brought all hands quickly on deck, and sure enough, about five miles from them they saw the wreck looming high out of the water, and evidently stranded. As her masts, with their crossed yards, were still standing, “Captain Li” said she must have struck very easily, and stood a good chance of being saved if she could only be lightened before a blow came that would roll a sea in on her.
“Are you going to her assistance?” asked Mr. Elmer.
“Certainly I am,” answered the captain. “I consider that one of the first duties of a sailor is to give aid to his fellows in distress. Besides, if we succeed in saving her and her cargo, we stand a chance of making several thousand dollars salvage money, which I for one do not care to throw away.”
“You are quite right,” said Mr. Elmer. “It is seldom that we are offered an opportunity of doing good and being well paid for it at the same time, and it would be foolish, as well as heartless, not to render what assistance lies in our power.”
The schooner was already headed towards the wreck, but approached it very slowly, owing to the light breeze that barely filled her sails. As the sun rose, and cast a broad flood of light over the tranquil scene, the captain anxiously scanned the line of the reef in both directions through his glass.
“Ah, I thought so!” he exclaimed; “there they come, and there, and there. I can count six already. Now we shall have a race for it.”
“Who? What?” asked Mark, not understanding the captain’s exclamations.
“Wreckers!” answered the captain. “Take the glass, and you can see their sails coming from every direction; and they have seen us long ago too.  Halloo there, forward! Stand by to lower the gig.”
“What are you going to do?” asked Mr. Elmer.
“I am going to try and reach that wreck before any of the boats whose sails you can see slipping out from behind those low keys. The first man aboard that ship is ‘wreck-master,’ and gets the largest share of salvage money.”
So saying, “Captain Li” swung himself over the side and into the light gig, which, with its crew of four lusty young Maine sailors, had already been got overboard and now awaited him. As he seized the tiller ropes he shouted, “Now, then, give way! And a hundred dollars extra salvage to you four if this gig is the first boat to lay alongside of that wreck.”
At these words the long ash oars bent like willow wands in the grasp of the young Northern giants, and the gig sprang away like a startled bonito, leaving a long line of bubbles to mark her course.
The wreck was still three miles off; and, with the glass, small boats could be seen shooting away from several of the approaching wrecking vessels.
“It’s a race between Conchs and Yankees,” said Jan Jansen to Mark.
“What are Conchs?” asked the boy.
“Why, those fellows in the other boats. Most of them come from the Bahama Islands, and all Bahamians are called ‘Conchs,’ because they eat so many of the shell-fish of that name.”
“Well, I’ll bet on the Yankees!” cried Mark.
“So will I,” said the Swede. “Yankee baked beans and brown bread make better muscle than fish, which is about all the fellows down this way get to live on.”
As seen from the deck of the schooner, the race had by this time become very exciting; for, as their boat approached the wreck on one side, another, manned by red-shirted wreckers, who were exhibiting a wonderful amount of pluck and endurance for “Conchs,” as Jan called them, was rapidly coming up on the other. It was hard to tell which was the nearer; and while Mark shouted in his excitement, Mrs. Elmer and Ruth waved their handkerchiefs, though their friends were too far away to be encouraged by either the shouts or wavings.
At last “Captain Li’s” boat dashed up alongside the wreck, and almost at the same instant the wrecker’s boat disappeared from view on the opposite side.
With their glasses, those on the schooner saw their captain go up the side of the ship, hand over hand, along a rope that had been thrown him, and disappear over the bulwarks. They afterwards learned that he reached the deck of the ship, and thus made himself master of the wreck, just as the head of his rival appeared above the opposite side.
The wreck proved to be the ship Goodspeed, Captain Gillis, of and for Liverpool, with cotton from New Orleans. During the calm of the preceding night she had been caught by one of the powerful coast currents, and stealthily but surely drawn into the toils. Shortly before daylight she had struck on Pickle Reef, but so lightly and so unexpectedly that her crew could hardly believe the slight jar they felt was anything more than the shock of striking some large fish. They soon found, however, that they were hard and fast aground, and had struck on the very top of the flood tide, so that, as it ebbed, the ship became more and more firmly fixed in her position. As the ship settled with the ebbing tide she began to leak badly, and Captain Gillis was greatly relieved when daylight disclosed to him the presence of the Nancy Bell, and he greeted her captain most cordially as the latter gained the deck of his ship.
By the time the schooner had approached the wreck, as nearly as her own safety permitted, and dropped anchor for the first time since leaving Bangor, a dozen little wrecking craft, manned by crews of swarthy spongers and fishermen, had also reached the spot, and active preparations for lightening the stranded ship were being made. Her carefully battened hatches were uncovered, whips were rove to her lower yards, and soon the tightly pressed bales of cotton began to appear over her sides, and find their way into the light draught wrecking vessels waiting to receive them. As soon as one of these was loaded, she transferred her cargo to the Nancy Bell and returned for another.
While the wreckers were busily discharging the ship’s cargo, her own crew were overhauling long lines of chain cable, and lowering two large anchors and two smaller ones into one of the wrecking boats that had remained empty on purpose to receive them. The cables were paid out over the stern of the ship, and made fast to the great anchors, which were carried far out into the deep water beyond the reef. Each big anchor was backed by a smaller one, to which it was attached by a cable, and which was carried some distance beyond it before being dropped overboard.
When the anchors were thus placed in position, the ends of the cables still remaining on board the ship were passed around capstans, and by means of the donkey-engine drawn taut.
At high tide that night a heavy strain was brought to bear on the cables, in hopes that the ship might be pulled off the reef; but she did not move, and the work of lightening her and searching for the leak continued all the next day.
While all this work was going on the Elmers spent most of their time in exploring the reef in the captain’s gig, which was so light that Mr. Elmer and Mark could easily row it.
As the clear water was without a ripple, they could look far down into its depths, and see the bottom of branching coral, as beautiful as frosted silver. From among its branches sprang great sea-fans, delicate as lace-work, and showing, in striking contrast to the pure white of the coral, the most vivid reds, greens, and royal purple. These, and masses of feathery seaweeds, waved to and fro in the water as though stirred by a light breeze, and among them darted and played fish as brilliant in coloring as tropical birds. The boat seemed suspended in midair above fairy-land, and even the children gazed down over its sides in silence, for fear lest by speaking they should break the charm, and cause the wonderful picture to vanish.
By noon the heat of the sun was so great that they sought shelter from it on a little island, or key, of about an acre in extent, that was covered with a luxuriant vegetation, and shaded by a group of stately cocoanut palms. Mr. Elmer showed Mark how to climb one of these by means of a bit of rope fastened loosely around his body and the smooth trunk of the tree, and the boy succeeded in cutting off several bunches of the great nuts that hung just below the wide-spreading crown of leaves. They came to the ground with a crash, but the thick husk in which each was enveloped saved them from breaking. The nuts were quite green, and Mr. Elmer with a hatchet cut several of them open and handed them to his wife and children. None of them contained any meat, for that had not yet formed, but they were filled with a white, milky fluid, which, as all of the party were very thirsty, proved a most acceptable beverage.
After eating the luncheon they had brought with them, and satisfying their thirst with the cocoanut milk, Mark and Ruth explored the beach of the little island in search of shells, which they found in countless numbers, of strange forms and most beautiful colors, while their parents remained seated in the shade of the palms.

“No,” answered the more practical Ruth; “I don’t think it would be at all. I would rather be where there are people and houses; besides, I heard father say that these little islands are often entirely covered with water during great storms, and I’m sure I wouldn’t want to be here then.”
It was nearly sunset when they returned to the schooner, with their boat well loaded with the shells and other curiosities that the children had gathered.
At high tide that night the strain on the cables proved sufficient to move the stranded ship, and, foot by foot, she was pulled off into deep water, much to the joy of Captain Gillis and those who had worked with him.
The next morning the entire fleet—ship, schooner, and wrecking boats—set sail for Key West, which port they reached during the afternoon, and where they found they would be obliged to spend a week or more while an Admiralty Court settled the claims for salvage.

Crane Softwrights Ltd.Resource Library - Color - ExamplesThese are examples for using the DSSSL Color Declaration files described in the colorkey.htm file. The examples are documented as transcripts of a working Windows'95 DOS window session running JADE. It is assumed the reader is already familiar with DSSSL syntax and is refering to these code fragments solely for the detail of accessing the color declarations. Two examples are included, one illustrating direct access to the declarations, and the other illustrating indirect access to the declarations. |
The following file is used for an example, you can choose to use any public identifier you wish (or use system identifiers directly).
S:\colour>type color.soc -- SGML Open Format Catalogue -- PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//DOCUMENT DSSSL Color Declarations//EN" "colordef.dsl" PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//ENTITIES DSSSL Color Declarations//EN" "colordsl.ent" PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//ENTITIES Color Declarations//EN" "colordef.ent" -- end of file --
The following transcript illustrates the direct use of the entities available in each of two DSSSL scripts, the first for HTML and the second for RTF.
Note the HTML declarations are in a parameter entity, while the DSSSL declarations are in a general entity.
S:\colour>type testc.sgm <!DOCTYPE doc [ <!ELEMENT doc - O (#PCDATA)> ]><doc>This is a test</doc> S:\colour>type testch.dsl <!DOCTYPE style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN" [ <!-- declare, then include, the definitions of available entities --> <!ENTITY % colorent PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//ENTITIES Color Declarations//EN"> %colorent; ]> (declare-flow-object-class element "UNREGISTERED::James Clark//Flow Object Class::element") (element doc (make element gi: "FONT" attributes: '(("COLOR" "&color-purple;")) (make element gi: "H1" (process-children)))) <!-- end of file --> S:\colour>type testcr.dsl <!DOCTYPE style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN" [ <!-- declare the DSSSL code fragment declaring the color definitions --> <!ENTITY colordef PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//DOCUMENT DSSSL Color Declarations//EN"> ]> &colordef; ;include the DSSSL code fragment (element doc (make paragraph font-size: 20pt line-spacing: 20pt font-weight: 'bold color: color-purple (process-children))) <!-- end of file --> S:\colour>jade -c p:\jade\jadecurr\catalog -c color.soc -t sgml -d testch.dsl >testc.htm testc.sgm S:\colour>jade -c p:\jade\jadecurr\catalog -c color.soc -t rtf -d testcr.dsl -o testc.rtf testc.sgm
In this example, note how a common entity file uses a general entity in the definition of a general entity named "&text-color;". The two DSSSL scripts are modified to reference the common general entity, which itself is defined using the general entity of the declaration. Since the DSSSL variables are referenced by their name, the DSSSL entity file is only a set of declarations of entities whose values are equivalent to their names.
In this way, the same general entity can be used in both kinds of scripts.
S:\colour>type testcmn.ent <!-- testcmn.ent: a common declaration of a color to use in scripts targetted for RTF and SGML --> <!ENTITY text-color "&color-darkgreen;"> <!-- end of file --> S:\colour>type testch2.dsl <!DOCTYPE style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN" [ <!-- declare, then include, the definitions of available entities --> <!ENTITY % colorent PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//ENTITIES Color Declarations//EN"> %colorent; <!-- declare, then include, the common definitions for both scripts --> <!ENTITY % testcmn SYSTEM "testcmn.ent"> %testcmn; ]> (declare-flow-object-class element "UNREGISTERED::James Clark//Flow Object Class::element") (element doc (make element gi: "FONT" attributes: '(("COLOR" "&text-color;")) (make element gi: "H1" (process-children)))) <!-- end of file --> S:\colour>type testcr2.dsl <!DOCTYPE style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet//EN" [ <!-- declare the DSSSL code fragment declaring the color definitions --> <!ENTITY colordef PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//DOCUMENT DSSSL Color Declarations//EN"> <!-- declare, then include, the definitions of available entities --> <!ENTITY % colorent PUBLIC "+//ISBN 1-894049::CSL::Resources//ENTITIES DSSSL Color Declarations//EN"> %colorent; <!-- declare, then include, the common definitions for both scripts --> <!ENTITY % testcmn SYSTEM "testcmn.ent"> %testcmn; ]> &colordef; (element doc (make paragraph font-size: 20pt line-spacing: 20pt font-weight: 'bold color: &text-color; (process-children))) <!-- end of file --> S:\colour>jade -c p:\jade\jadecurr\catalog -c color.soc -t sgml -d testch2.dsl >testc2.htm testc.sgm S:\colour>jade -c p:\jade\jadecurr\catalog -c color.soc -t rtf -d testcr2.dsl -o testc2.rtf testc.sgm

Baked sweet potato makes a nice change and is a really easy, healthy dinner to throw together. To serve two, just double up the ingredients with some bonus leftover topping for lunch.
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6 and place a sheet of kitchen foil on the middle shelf.
Rub the sweet potato with half a teaspoon of the olive oil and some salt. Pierce the skin several times with a sharp knife, place directly onto the top shelf of the oven and bake for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, place the vegetables in a medium-sized roasting tray, drizzle with the remaining olive oil and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and roast for 20–25 minutes or until soft and starting to brown at the edges.
Put the bulgur wheat into a heatproof bowl and pour in just enough boiling water to cover, wrap the bowl tightly with cling film and leave to stand for 30 minutes.
Check the potato is cooked through by piercing with a blunt knife. When it is done, turn the oven off and leave the potato in for 15 minutes while you assemble the topping.
Fluff up the bulgur wheat with a fork, then tip it into the tray with the roasted vegetables and mix well to combine. Add the dill and mix again.
To serve, break the potato open and fluff up the inside with a fork, top with the bulgur wheat and vegetable mixture and a dollop of natural yoghurt.


Navy arrests 20 suspected smugglers - The Nation Newspaper
Our Reporter
THE Nigerian Navy, Forward Operating Base (FOB), Ibaka, Mbo Local Government Area in Akwa Ibom, has in one week arrested 20 suspects and seized 1,425 bags of smuggled rice.
Commanding Officer, FOB, Navy Capt. Peter Yilme disclosed this to newsmen in Ibaka on Tuesday.
Yilme, represented by the Base Operations Officer, Lt.-Cdr. Kabiru Yusuf, said the arrests were made in four different operations between Nov. 12 and Nov. 18.
He said that their gunboats during patrols on Effiat waterways seized the boats carrying 50kg bags of rice brought in from the Republic of Cameroon.
Yilme, while handing over the suspects and items to the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), said the Nigerian Navy has zero tolerance for criminality.
“Four wooden boats carrying a combined 1,425 bags of 50kg parboiled rice suspected to be smuggled into the country and 20 suspects were impounded and arrested by the Forward Operating Base, Ibaka.
“The handover of the 20 suspects and 1,425 bags of rice on Tuesday 19 November, 2019 goes to show the resolve of the Base not to relent on its oars. The arrests were made between November 12 and 18, 2019.

“I commend the untiring efforts of the officers and ratings in ensuring the mandate and tasks of the Base are achieved.
“I also appreciate the immense effort of the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok E. Ibas for providing the necessary platform and logistic support for the Base to carry out its operations,” he said.
The officer warned smugglers to desist from the act, especially within Foward Operating Base, Ibaka area of operation.
He said the FOB, in the last one month has handed over 3,800 bags of smuggled rice, 60 drums of illegally refined Automated Gas Oil (AGO), and 60 suspects to the Customs component of Operation Swift Response for necessary action.
Receiving the suspects and items, Deputy Superintendent of Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Mr Alabi Adedokun commended the Navy for the cooperation between them.

Iowa Roads
Karson Sommer, GEOG:5540
Summary
Consider what street you live on? Maybe it is 1st Street. Maybe it is Elm Court. Maybe it is Interstate 80. Is it more common for someone to live on a Street or a Court? What is the actual distribution of road suffixes?
We will focus our analysis on the state of Iowa. Data is taken from the Iowa Department of Transportation Road Access Management System (RAMS).
This dataset is extracted in the form of a shapefile and has 309,000 entries as well as 109 attributes. For the analyses, we are only interested in the road name, so we discard all but 5 columns. 4 of the columns represent the names of the road. A municipal name, a secondary name, a county name, and a state name. This was reduced to a single name per county by taking the lowest priority name. So if a road has both a municipal name but is also a state signed route, we will only consider the municipal name. The other 1 column retained is the Average Annual Daily Traffic. This variable refers to the average amount of vehicles that travel a road per day, averaged by over an entire year.
Using QGIS, the length for each road segment is appended to each entry. This attribute will be measured in miles. Additionally, the road segments are joined against each county in Iowa to retain the FIPS code and name. Then, the data is imported into Azure Databricks. SQL queries are used to compute the total length per road segment for each county. The SQL query can be viewed in an interactive document.
In addition to the analysis presented here, another analysis was conducted. This focused primarly on the safety of roads in Iowa based on their physical characteristics. The presentation is titled, Iowa Road Safety, and was put together for the class Big Data Management & Analytics.
Most Common Suffixes by County
The first set of maps to consider is which road suffix is most common for each county?
These maps can highlight both the most common road suffix by percent of overall length and the percent of the total miles driven. Most common by length represents of all roads, which is the most common. Most common by miles driven represents what is the most common suffix that people actually see. The overall length is computed as the sum of length for the suffix divided by the total length. The miles driven is computed by taking the length multiplied by Average Annual Daily Travel. This computes miles driven for a road segment in a day, then it can be computed as a percent of total miles driven
Special suffixes include NULL, MALFORMED, and OTHER. NULL is any road which did not have a name in the dataset. NULLs are usually entry errors and not actually roads without names. MALFORMED are any roads which are missing a suffix. Agains, MALFORMED names are typically entry errors where someone left off the suffix. OTHER are any roads with a suffix other than the specified suffixes. OTHER could be uncommon suffixes such as Strasze or Trace. Alternatively, OTHER encapsulates misspelled suffixes like St rather than Street.
It can be observed from the break down by length that most counties in Iowa are dominated by streets. This is actually somewhat misleading. In reality, most of the counties with streets use a grid system, where streets are half the grid and avenues are the other half of the grid. Since streets are also used in urban areas, it means that they have slightly longer length than avenues those counties.
Northeastern Iowa is dominated by roads. Northeastern Iowa is the driftless region, an unglaciated region that is very hilly. The road network there is much different than the rest of Iowa. The roads are not on a grid system and are much steeper than elsewhere. The roads are also typically ashpalt rather than gravel. Overall, those road systems are more like Wisconsin than Iowa. This fact is even reflected in the different road names.
Analyzing by vehicle miles, most of the state is led by NULL values. These values likely correspond to various highway systems. It may be that they are not propertly encoded in the original dataset. NULL probably represents Interstates as well as US highways.
Northwest Iowa is rural and doesn't have a major highway passing through the region. Since residents are forced to use surface streets, it means the amount of miles travelled on those streets are higher. This leads to the most common roads by miles driven being street, avenue, and way.
Distribution of Road Suffixes
The second analyses focuses on the distribution of a particular road suffix. For instance, where would you be most likely to find roads with court in the name?
So, rather than examining which is the most common suffix, we examine the overall percent of that suffix in each county. This map allows you to select between any suffix which has over 10 miles of length across in Iowa. There are 21 suffixes to choose from including NULL, MALFORMED, and OTHER. The option is available to select either the breakdown by length or by miles driven.
These maps show a lot of information. First, examine the road suffixes which are presented in the first map as being the most common. Streets are everywhere except for the northeast region dominated by roads. Avenues are pretty much everywhere, except Cass County has only 0.49% by length! Examining MALFORMED values, we see that Chickasaw County is 77% bad. This is due to the suffixes being omitted in the dataset for their county. The roads have suffixes in real life, so this is a data error.
Most of the suffixes have almost no presence across the state. Since much of Iowa is rural and uses the grid system, this means that these counties are dominated by avenues, streets, highways, and roads. Other road suffixes are usually associated with suburban development. And many developers will pick a subset of road suffixes to use. This leads to some subdivisions causing certain counties to stand out. For example, loop is only found in meaningful numbers in 3 counties.
By miles driven, the proportion for all of the suburban suffixes decreases. This makes sense because people only use suburban roads to get to residences. Similarly, avenues and streets decrease in proportion. While these roads are found everywhere, they are usually gravel roads that only service farms. So they don't see that much traffic. NULL values again dominate because highways have much more traffic than surface streets.
Conclusion
These maps clearly show that roads are not uniformly distributed. There may be a significantly higher chance to find a particular road suffix in one area than another area. While streets and avenues may be the standard in one county, someone from another county might think it is bizarre since their home county only has roads.
This dataset is supposed to be authoritative for the Iowa Department of Transportation, but the maps show that there are clear issues. Chickasaw County is missing road suffixes for 77% of their roads. This is a clear issue if the road dataset is being used by first responders, deliver drivers, or taxi companies since it may cause critical delays in reaching a person's home.
The maps also show highways have their names omitted when viewing the NULL names. This is also an issue since any 3rd party using the dataset will have to manually encode the highway names onto the roads.

Instead of pretending that I have a good grasp of how to use recursion, I'm simply going to define it, and say that I'm super interested in the theory behind it. First, the definition:
Recursion "is the process of repeating items in a self-similar way. For instance, when the surfaces of two mirrors are exactly parallel with each other the nested images that occur are a form of infinite recursion. The term has a variety of meanings specific to a variety of disciplines ranging from linguistics to logic. The most common application of recursion is in mathematics and computer science, in which it refers to a method of defining functions in which the function being defined is applied within its own definition. Specifically this defines an infinite number of instances (function values), using a finite expression that for some instances may refer to other instances, but in such a way that no loop or infinite chain of references can occur. The term is also used more generally to describe a process of repeating objects in a self-similar way." - Wiki
This, taken from another source, is a great explanation as well: "Sometimes a problem is too difficult or too complex to solve because it is too big. If the problem can be broken down into smaller versions of itself, we may be able to find a way to solve one of these smaller versions and then be able to build up to a solution to the entire problem. This is the idea behind recursion; recursive algorithms break down a problem into smaller pieces which you either already know the answer to, or can solve by applying the same algorithm to each piece, and then combining the results.
Stated more concisely, a recursive definition is defined in terms of itself. Recursion is a computer programming technique involving the use of a procedure, subroutine, function, or algorithm that calls itself in a step having a termination condition so that successive repetitions are processed up to the critical step where the condition is met at which time the rest of each repetition is processed from the last one called to the first." (sparknotes)
The above resource has some really good introductory information, such as a very general description of when to use recursion vs. iteration, and a step-by-step breakdown of how a recursive function works. I highly recommend reading it here: SparkNotes.

AutoMouseWeight is a Raspberry Pi Python program to automatically weigh and log weight data for individuals identified by RFID tags. It requires a load cell connected to an HX711 load cell amplifier, and an Innovations Design RFID tag reader (ID-3LA, ID-12LA, or ID-20LA). AutoMouseWeight was designed for mice, but it could be used for anything that can move and carry an RFID tag.
The basic setup of the electronics and hardware and the use of the system to log mice weights has been published: Automating mouse weighing in group homecages with Raspberry Pi micro-computers. Omid Noorshams Jamie D. Boyd, and Timothy H. Murphy: Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2017 Jun 15;285:1-5. This is an improved version of the software used in the paper. There is a youTube movie demonstrating the electronics setup. The STL files included here were created by Omid Noorshams and are for 3D printing of a tunnel that rests on the load cell, related couplers, plus a holder for an ID-20LA. Their use is explained in the paper.
AutoMouseWeight uses the HX711 Python/C module from GPIO_Thread and RFIDTagReader.
To install the HX711 Python/Cmodule you will need the Python development library. The GPIO_Thread projects use the pulsedThread library so you will need to install this as well.
Install RFIDTagReader:
There are some settings that need to be configured before running the program. These used to be set in the Python file itself, but have been moved into a JSON styled text file. When the program is launched, it will look for a file named AMW_config.jsn in the current directory, and load the constants from there. If the file can not be loaded completely, a new set of constants will be created by querying the user, and these will be saved to AMW_config.jsn. A file named Copy_to_AMW_config.jsn contains a sample configuration file, which you can, as indicated, copy to AMW_config.jsn and manually edit. Don't edit Copy_to_AMW_config.jsn because if it is under GIT version control. You would lose your changes if you updated the program with git pull. The contents of AMW_config.jsn are:
| GPIO Data Pin | The GPIO pin which is connected to the data pin of the HX711 |
| GPIO Clock Pin | The GPIO pin which is connected to the clock pin of the HX711 |
| Grams per Unit | Scaling of the load cell, in grams per raw A/D unit. For our setup, this was 7.14e-05 |
| Serial Port | The serial port used for the tag reader. Usually 'serial0' |
| GPIO Tag in Range Pin | The GPIO pin which is connected to the Tag-In-Range pin of the Tag Reader. Note that the code as written only works with ID tag readers not RDM readers because of the reliance on the Tag-In-Range Pin to generate an interrupt. |
| Data Save Options | Set this to a bit-wise combination of kSAVE_DATA_LOCAL=1, to save data on the local machine, and kSAVE_DATA_REMOTE=2, to POST data to a remote server where it can be crucnhed and displayed on a web page as it is acquired. The server code is not ready yet, so unless you write it yourself, stick with kSAVE_DATA_LOCAL. |
| Cage Name | cage name will be included in the name of the data files printed by AutoMouseWeight |
| Data Path | The file path where data files from each day will be saved |
| Day Start Hour | The hour when a new file is created. Use 0 to start the file for each day at 12 midnight. Set to 7 to synch files to mouse day/night cycle. Set to 13 to do the file turnaround in the quiet of the afternoon |
| Email Weights | if true, and Data Save Options is set to kSAVE_DATA_LOCAL , results for each day will be emailed as described below |
| Email From Address | The account used to send the email |
| Email Password | Password for the account used to send the email. Stored in plain text, so maybe use a dedicated account |
| Email Recipients | list of email addresses to receive the emails |
| Email Server | Server used to send email, with port number, e.g., smtp.gmail.com:87 |
| Thread Array Size | size of array used for threaded reading from load cell amplifier. The HX711 reads at 10 Hz so 200 points will record for 20 seconds. Mice typically pass through the weighing chamber within this time |
| Minimum Weight | cut off weight where we stop the scale from reading once it has dipped below |
Upon being started, AutoMouseWeight tares the scale, and opens a binary data file named for cage name and date. The program then loops forever collecting weight data whenever a tag is read by the Tag Reader. The program will close the existing file and start a new data file every 24 hours, synched to the kDAYSTARTHOUR constant. It can run constantly for many days at a time.
The basic program flow is as follows. Whenever a tag is read by the tag reader, the program records the tag ID number and the time, and starts the scale collecting weight data as fast as it can. This is done on a separate thread from the main program in C module. The scale keeps reading weights into the array until the array is full, or until the tag goes out of range and the scale reads leads than kMINWEIGHT, or until a different tag is read by the tag reader. The tag ID and the time stamp are then printed to the data file, followed by the contents of the data array up to the point where the scale was stopped.
The collection of data can be interrupted with ctrl-c. This brings up the ScaleRunner function which presents a text based menu with the following options:
AutoMouseWeight Data files for each day are named with kCAGE_NAME_4 Digit year_2 Digit Month_2 Digit Day, e.g., cage1_2017_06_04, and are saved in the location specified by kCAGE_PATH. Data files are in binary 32 bit floating point format. Weight data is written to the file as grams. Each run of weight data is prefaced by the last 6 digits of the RFID code, as a negative value to make it easy for analysis code to find the start of each run, and the time in seconds since the start of the day, as set by the kDAYSTARTHOUR constant. Only the last 6 digits of the RFID code are written because that is the limit of the precision of a 32 bit floating point value. In practice, this limit has not proved to be a problem.
| -50610 | last 6 digits of RFID code |
| 55516.457 | seconds since start of day |
| 12.725607 | 1st weight reading |
| 17.459797 | 2nd weight reading |
| 22.18738 | 3rd weight reading |
| 22.010483 | 4th weight reading |

| 33.041756 | 9th weight reading |
| 33.286957 | 10th weight reading |
| . | |
| . | |

| 24.153572 | 5th from last weight reading |
| 17.559387 | 4th from last weight reading |

| 7.2594399 | 2nd from last weight reading |
| 4.7857132 | last weight reading |
As the mouse moves across the platform, weight values start out low, rapidly reach a plateau, and then drop quickly as the mouse leaves the platform on the other side. 20 runs of data from the same mouse all from the same day are shown below. The plateau, easily seen when multiple runs are plotted together, corresponds to the actual weight of the mouse.
A second Python script, OneDayWeights.py, is included with AutoMouseWeight. It can be run seprately to analyze the data files produced by AutoMouseWeight, or if kSAVE_DATA_LOCAL is set in kSAVE_DATA, the get_day_weights function is imported from OneDayWeights.py and is run at the end of every day. The get_day_weights function uses the numpy library:
sudo apt-get install python3-numpy
If running OneDayWeights stand alone, you may wish to set the option to display plots of the data. This is done with matplotlib:
The get_day_weights function is called like this:
get_day_weights (folder_path, cageName, date_year, date_month, date_day, output_path, doPlots, sendMail)
The analysis used in OneDayWeights.py is quite simple, based on finding the most commonly ocurring weight for each mouse. For each day, weights for each mouse is copied into a numpy array. Weights below a minimum threshold (set by the constant kMIN_WEIGHT) or above a maximum threshold (set by the constant kMAX_WEIGHT) are excluded. A cumulative histogram of the weight data is made, using the bin size set by the constant kHIST_BINSIZE. The derivative of the histogram is taken, and smoothed with kN_SMOOTH passes of a Gaussian kernel of kKERNEL_WIDTH. The center of the histogram bin containing the maximum value of the smoothed derivative is returned as the result. The data for each day is saved in the folder specified by output_path, in a text file named cageName + '_weights_' + 4 Digit year_2 Digit Month_2 Digit Day + '.txt' Sample output is:
| mouse | entries | weight |
| m00026 | 1 | 24.9 |
| m90629 | 12 | 24.6 |
| m90647 | 3 | 28.2 |
| m90716 | 10 | 24.6 |
| m90797 | 3 | 26.1 |
| m90882 | 14 | 23.1 |
| m90964 | 4 | 26.4 |
| m90969 | 4 | 28.1 |
| m91183 | 29 | 26.2 |
If the Pi recording weights is online, email containing the results for each day can be sent to to interested parties. Constants used for emailing weights are set from the AMW_config.jsn file. Fill these in before running the program. Note that the email password is saved as clear text, not encoded. You can make a separate gmail account for your AutoMouseWeight. The emailing code could be improved by comparing each mouse's weight to a baseline weight, and sending an email alert only if the current weight had decreased by some set percentage from baseline.
When run as a stand alone script, OneDayWeights.py repeatedly querries the user for a year, month, and date, and runs the get_day_weights function with other arguments set from constants in OneDayWeights.py:
Matplotlib plots of the data from one day from one mouse are shown here, followed by a plot of the smoothed derivative of the histogram of all the weights, from which the position of the peak was extracted for the recorded weight. A particularly noisy example was selected to show that, with enough traversals across the weighing platform, a reliable peak can be extracted even from noisy data.

Bible prophecy has always been a topic of interest to me. I read a book titled ‘Bible Code’ where the author believed predictions were buried in the text of the Bible. He believed that by using computers and algorithms you could unlock secrets and that he may be able to crack the “code” and find the date of Armageddon.
Years later I’m doing course work while working in the Data Science field and I realize the Bible would be an interesting choice for a text mining topic. I intend on using R for starters, but also intend on using Python to reproduce results. First thing first, we’ll look at the data and the prep needed.
The Data
I’m just going to use a text translation of the King James version of the Bible currently in a text file. The file can be found at http://www.sacred-texts.com/bib/osrc/ . I intend on importing the text file and concatenating all of the lines into a single string. I’ll then use the tm package to prepare the data by removing punctuation, numbers, whitespace and stemming the document to remove affixes from the words. I can then create a Term Document Matrix to do further analysis. That will be me starting point. Let’s begin!
CLEANING
I begin by downloading the text file and noticing each line begin with chapter and verse name. I don’t want these included in the process. I haven’t imported the file yet so sometimes I find Excel as an easier option to change a file such as this. I can just open the text file in Excel and separate the data since it seems to be tab separated and also uses ‘|’ before the actual verse. It literally takes more time to explain this process than to actually do it.
With the file saved as a text file, I’m now ready to import it into R and use the readLines function. Taking a look at the head of the text file, I can already see there needs to be quite a bit of cleanup. Since I’m going to be exploring other versions of the bible down the road, I’ll create a function that I can save and reuse in the future. First, I’ll convert the document into a corpus with the following commands:
doc.vec <- VectorSource(bible)
doc.corpus <- Corpus(doc.vec)
The function I'll creat is as follows:
clean_corpus <- function(corpus){corpus <- tm_map(corpus, removeNumbers)
corpus <- tm_map(corpus, tolower)
corpus <- tm_map(corpus, removePunctuation)
corpus <- tm_map(corpus, removeWords, stopwords("english"))
corpus <- tm_map(corpus, stripWhitespace)
return(corpus)
}
clean_bible <- clean_corpus(doc.corpus)
Applying this function will remove numbers, punctuation, stopwords, whitespace and convert the letters to lowercase. I can then stem the document and I should be ready to create a Term Document Matrix (TDM). The results are as follows (screenshot of code):
Exploration
We can now start exploring questions like what are the most frequent terms found in the Bible? The following example finds the words that occur more than 2000 times.
We can also create visualizations. One example could be a word cloud using the following code:
m1 <- as.matrix(TDM)
word.freq <- sort(rowSums(m1), decreasing=T)
wordcloud(words=names(word.freq), freq=word.freq, min.freq=1000,random.order=F, scale=c(5, .1), colors=brewer.pal(9, "Spectral"))
Which creates this:
We can also create a document term matrix (DTM). Using the DTM we can create a dendogram to show common word associations. The code is as follows:
DTM <- DocumentTermMatrix(clean_bible)dtmsort <- sort(colSums(as.matrix(DTM)), decreasing=TRUE)
dtmsortcut <- dtmsort[1:25]
m2 <- as.matrix(dtmsortcut)
distMatrix <- dist(scale(m2))
fit <- hclust(distMatrix,method="ward.D")
plot(fit, cex=0.67)
This creates this dendogram:
More to come...
Our journey is just beginning. We'll tackle more detailed questions next!

Gareth Bale should rejoin Tottenham Hotspur, says ex-Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon
Former Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon believes a return to Tottenham Hotspur would be the ideal solution to Gareth Bale's troubles in Spain.
Calderon expects Bale, 30, to be booed at the Bernabeu after he celebrated Wales' Euro 2020 qualification behind a flag saying "Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order".
Calderon says if Bale knew what was written on the flag it was "childish".
Moving to Spurs "would be a good solution for everyone", added Calderon.
Former Real manager Jose Mourinho has succeeded Mauricio Pochettino as Spurs manager and Calderon believes Bale could go back to north London, where he spent six seasons before his then-world record move to Madrid in 2013.
"It's true that Mourinho likes the player," Calderon told BBC Radio Wales. "He said that in 2017 when he tried to sign (him) for Manchester United and Real Madrid decided to extend the contract of Gareth Bale.
"I remember him saying 'if he is by the exit door, I will be waiting on the other side', so maybe it's a solution."
'The problem is there are no offers'
Bale has been criticised in Spain for his love of golf and for prioritising Wales over his club.
The four-time Champions League winner came close to joining Chinese side Jiangsu Suning in July only for Real to call off the transfer.
Asked whether Bale is now destined to move on, Calderon added: "The problem is there are no offers.
"It happened last summer when (Real manager Zinedine) Zidane said the sooner he leaves, the better. I think he was a bit fed up with the situation. Apparently only one club from China wanted to sign him.
"The salary is high, that's another problem. It's going to be something that the club, the agent and the player must decide."
Bale has been heavily criticised in the Spanish press over the flag celebration, which followed Wales' decisive 2-0 win over Hungary on Tuesday.
There was also consternation in Spain over Bale's return to Wales action in Azerbaijan last Saturday, as he had not played for Real since picking up an injury while with his country in the October international break.
"We don't if he knew what was on that banner," Calderon said.
"If he knew, it's clear that this was something childish but maybe he didn't.
"Maybe he was involved in the celebrations with other team-mates and he did that unwittingly, not trying to offend anyone or disrespect anyone. The problem is that picture has added fuel to the fire.
"You have to bear in mind that for fans it's a bit weird. They are angry because the player has gone around 50 days without playing for Real Madrid, missing six matches, and then suddenly they have seen him playing for Wales - very well by the way.
"That's been really the trouble, not just the banner but a combination of things."
Press has been 'very cruel'
Calderon, who was Real president between 2006 and 2009, says Bale should expect a frosty reception when he returns to club duty.
"I am sure when he appears at the Bernabeu on the pitch, there will be people booing him and not accepting what he did," he said.
"Also the press has been very cruel in some ways, having the front pages on this issue. That is also the problem.
"He has been shy and introverted, not communicating with the press.
"The fans haven't been able to know what he thinks because he doesn't speak a single word of Spanish."


I've used a lot. at one pont I was slamming 4 or 5 bags in one hit. I've overdosed before, but I was always able to be awakened by yelling or shaking. not this time. I know my tolerance wasn't down, I only skipped days, maybe 2-3 weeks between hits, but it was only 2 days since my last hit, that last hit was 1 and a half bags and I didn't even nod. this was a different brand, but how much difference can half a bag make even between two different brands? apparently a lot.
I took my 2 bags, I cooked them up and I drew them. I hit the vein just like always, same vein, same room in the same house, same works. everything was the same. just like always, I watched the blood enter the syringe, just like always I let go of my tie, just like always I pulled back on the pluger to register, just like a thousand times before I started to push ever so slowly. it was a 1cc syringe, as I had always used, and like always, I puched 0.10cc at a time, registering again every 2-3 graduations. with about .4cc left to go, I began to feel it.
 I had the sensation of surfacing out of deep water, I could not hear, I could not see, I could not feel. it came back very very gradually and I was not yet coherent enough to realise what had happened. I heard my mother yelling, pissed off. my girlfriend yelling that I would never see my son again. a man demanding to know who I was, what I'd taken, how much, where I got it.
  I did not respond. everyone got really pissed. the cop insisted. I responded, 'this is my fault. I did this. it doesn't matter where I got it.' 'what if some kid goes down there and buys this stuff and dies? you almost died. if you don't tell me where you got it I'm going to charge you with posession of heroin.
if you tell me we won't charge anyone, we just want to talk to them.'
I heard 'Perfect Day' by Lou Reed and 'Sing' by Blur continuouslu for then next several hours. then the real bad shit started once I got to the hospital and my mom and girlfriend came in. I felt so ashamed, so despicible. they knew it and they played on it. I hated myself and wished they hadn't saved me. my girlfriend tells me that when she found me laying on my bed, she thought I was dead. my skin was blue and my lips were purple. no one knows how I am alive right now. I know that the Narcon brought me out of it, but she didn't find me until an hour after I ODed. how did I not die? she asked if I had an experience when I was 'dead'. I said no. I didn't. it was like sleep.
