Changing the World, One Idea at a Time
Dear Wazoku Community,
Our world continues to live in the long shadow of the Covid-19 pandemic. As I write this, we are once again facing an uncertain end to 2021, as questions circle around the new Omicron variant. Wazoku represents a global community, and we are profoundly aware that the impact across the world is not even and is highly complex. As we come towards the close of 2021 and look ahead to 2022, I hope that across our amazing community that you and your loved ones are healthy and safe.
A number of hugely important themes have come to the fore in 2021. The COP26 event focused the world's attention on climate change, it is critical that we continue the momentum built up in the run up to COP26 into decisive action now and into the immediate future. I will not comment here on the outputs of the meeting itself, but will state that change and impact will be best driven by collective action, collaboration, and innovation from a hyper-local to a supra-global scale. I will also add, that despite the many challenges we face as a planet, as a species, and as communities, I remain optimistic and hopeful about the future ahead.
Wazoku will play a key role in helping to shape that future. Our purpose is to 'Change the World, One Idea at a Time'�. We live by this purpose. Over the past 12 months we have worked tirelessly towards our own objectives focused on UN SDG #4 (Quality Education), #8 (Decent Work & Economic Growth), #9 (Industry, Innovation & Infrastructure), #10 (Reduced Inequalities) and #13 (Climate Action) and will continue our work and focus across these areas into 2022 and beyond. Examples from the past 12 months are:
Carbon Neutral recertification (Nov 2021)
Wazoku as a signatory to Tech Zero
Ran Great Places to Work survey for the first time (recognised #50 in the GPW rankings for medium sized firms)
Committed focus on global education to increase the access for our services to a truly global crowd
Increased crowd reach to over 150 countries and committed to invest in this further. Awarded $605,250 in innovation awards to solvers in 25 countries (1st Dec 2020 - 30th Nov 2021 inclusive)
Supported a range of industry, NGO and Government partners in advancing their activities and ESG goals
Supported our partners through financial support including Anthony Nolan; The Giving Trees; Cooking With Gas; For Peat's Sake; Animal Kingdom; Breath of Fresh Air; For The Birds

CEO and founder, Wazoku
How we are supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals
Everyday we work to supporting our customers on achieving their SDGs. But for the past 12 months these are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that we have focused on within our organization.
About Sustainable Development Goals
The SDGs are the world's shared plan to end extreme poverty, reduce inequality, and protect the planet by 2030.
Adopted by 193 countries in 2015, the SDGs emerged from the most inclusive and comprehensive negotiations in UN history and have inspired people from across sectors, geographies, and cultures. Achieving the goals by 2030 will require heroic and imaginative effort, determination to learn about what works, and agility to adapt to new information and changing trends.
The UN Foundation focuses on ideas and initiatives that generate larger impact, advance the SDG imperative to "leave no one behind," and are backed by evidence, practical commitments, and action.
Individuals, innovations, and actions are helping the planet realize the potential and promise of the SDGs.
We seek to make a positive social impact through our charity partners
We select a charity partner every 1-2 years, using our own platform to crowdsource potential charity partners from ideas across the business, typically these are charities who have some personal connection to one or more of the team
In the past we have partnered with MS Society, The Princes Trust and our current Charity partner is the Anthony Nolan Foundation
For our latest challenge to raise money and awareness Wazoku employees aim to go the circumference of the earth which is around 24,000 miles to raise over £5,000
Anthony Nolan Foundation (Britain)
Every day, Anthony Nolan match incredible individuals willing to donate their blood stem cells or bone marrow to people with blood cancer and blood disorders who desperately need lifesaving transplants.
It all began in 1974. With her three-year-old son Anthony in urgent need of a bone marrow transplant, Shirley Nolan set up the world's first register to match donors with people in desperate need.
Now, the charity helps three people each day find that lifesaving match. There are over 800,00 people on their UK register. You can join it here.
The Giving Trees (Kenya and Uganda )
This project helps small communities plant trees to create a nature-based carbon removal system that helps train leaders and pull families out of poverty.
"This project includes a robust GPS-based monitoring system to independently track the trees and report project progress online. This level of 'absolute transparency' into field operations ensures TIST is a project Cool Effect can confidently stand behind.
The sale of carbon credits provides income and funding to address a variety of challenges faced by the local community including agricultural and nutritional deficiencies, HIV/AIDS, clean cooking, and fuel availbility. The project distributes 70% of the profits to the local farmers and raises the standard of living for this rural population while combating climate change."
Learn more about The Giving Trees
Cooking With Gas (China)
This project builds biogas digesters for families that capture methane emissions from waste and convert it to renewable energy.
"The project exclusively targets low-income rural households in China's Sichuan province, who are unable to participate in an ongoing public biogas promotion program without additional financial and technical support. These families exist on an average daily per capita income of slightly higher than one US dollar. The carbon revenues from this project supplement an existing government subsidy for digesters and allow participation for low-income rural households. A robust maintenance program with this project ensures long-term use and functionality of the digesters.
Dealing with waste of any kind is a stinky proposition that is unhealthy for the planet. This project has solved the financial and technical issues necessary to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide co-benefits including improved health, sanitation, economic savings, and better crops."

For Peat's Sake (Indonesia)
The largest carbon project in the world protects 157,000 hectares of land that is sustainably managed as a home to local communities and endangered animals.
"The project development team takes a data-driven approach to project monitoring including remote sensing imagery, reported baseline values, and on-the-ground measurements. This increases Cool Effect's confidence and certainty in the emission reductions.
In addition to climate change mitigation, this project provides community and biodiversity benefits. 50% of the households within the project zone live below the national poverty line. The agreements between the project and communities ensure that benefits will be distributed and shared. Last, this project is verified and certified "Gold Level for 3 years for Climate, Community, and Biodiversity" by the Climate Community & Biodiversity (CCB) Standard"

Animal Kingdom (Kenya)
This project protects 420,000 hectares of native grasslands for wildlife and indigenous people.
"We are supporting this project because it restores 420,000-hectares of forests and grasslands in a more cost-effective manner. Through planting trees in a new forest plantation, this project is an excellent example of climate change mitigation and adaptation occurring simultaneously, helping nature, wildlife, and the vulnerable Masai population.
Revenue from the carbon offset sales is re-invested in community projects per the community members' choice. Funds also go for training local capacity-building efforts are already showing results as the communities become more resilient to the impacts of climate change. The project earned CCB gold accreditation for its community benefits, which we are excited to continue to monitor."

Breath of Fresh Air (Honduras)
This project constructs cookstoves in rural homes that provide clean air and health benefits to the families.
"The stove passes routine testing by standard Kitchen Performance Tests, and the wood savings are verified. Support and interest in the stove in rural communities in Honduras are overwhelming to the point where it requires no marketing, the growing participation is from word of mouth.
After families get a cookstove, they receive three follow-up visits to ensure the stove was installed and working correctly. This project uses Salesforce CRM to collect usage and maintenance data to identify and solve issues quickly. As a nonprofit, 100% of the proceeds from carbon sales are applied to stove production in Honduras without administrative or operating costs for the staff supporting the project from the United States."

For the Birds (South Carolina )
This project maintains a remarkable ecosystem of old-growth forests and natural habitats.
"We appreciate this old-growth forest. The carbon absorption rate of a tree accelerates as it ages. This means that forests comprised of tall, old trees – are some of the planet's biggest carbon storehouses. This project combines carbon benefits with virgin forest preservation, watershed protection, and educational opportunities for tourism and the local communities."

Turkey is supposed to be privatizing; it's also ostensibly following policies that will bring down inflation. But vested interests that benefit from the unwieldy structure of state corporations and a banking industry dependent on earnings from high-interest treasury paper are thwarting these processes. The privatization of Turk Telekom is a tangled tale of delay and indecision, and a banking industry that can cope with a low-inflation environment is something to hope for rather than an immediately practicable reality. Metin Munir reports.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
When the idealistic young Jefferson Smith (James Stewart) winds up appointed to the United States Senate, he gains the mentorship of Senator Joseph Paine (Claude Rains). However, Paine isn't as noble as his reputation would indicate, and he becomes involved in a scheme to discredit Smith, who wants to build a boys' campsite where a more lucrative project could go. Determined to stand up against Paine and his corrupt peers, Smith takes his case to the Senate floor. Courtesy of Gracenote.

Disabled Woman Sues Zac Brown, Live Nation After Incident in Boston
Billy Dukes
A blind woman is reportedly suing Zac Brown of the Zac Brown Band and Live Nation Entertainment after an incident at an August 2015 concert in Boston, which she says left her no longer to able to use her arm.
According to documents obtained by TMZ, Karen Perry was seated in a section for disabled persons, but fans stormed the area when the singer came down to shake hands with the crowd. Security stepped in, but their attempt to lift the metal gate caused it to lodge into Perry's arm pit. Outlets like the Wrap report that Perry says she suffered neurological, muscular and orthopedic injuries.
She's seeking $75,000, saying that she can no longer use her arm to hold her white cane. Her personal injury and negligence suit claims Brown's "known propensity for going into the crowd" should have been better addressed ahead of time by security.
The Boston show took place at Fenway Park last summer. The show was part of a historic three-show run of sellouts at the baseball stadium. Zac Brown Band only have a smattering of festival dates on their official webpage, including festival shows like Country Jam in Grand Junction, Colo. "Beautiful Drug" is the current single from the Jekyll + Hyde album.

You Don't Need To Do The Santa Thing For My Kids' Sake If Your Religion Is "Nah"
by Jamie Kenney
As a former Catholic/current atheist/person who loves Christmas, I have never really had to consider what people who didn't grow up with Christianity tell their kids about S-A-N-T-A. Then I came across an essay on Kveller by Mirah Curzer titled "Our Jewish Kids Shouldn't Have To Lie About Santa." In the piece, Curzer talks about the stress some Jewish children (and their parents) feel when they're pressured to keep up the Santa myth for the benefit of their peers. It is insightful, thoughtful, and has gotten some readers shook. I am not shook, though. I'm in complete agreement. You don't have to lie to my kids about Santa if you don't ~do~ Santa... that's my job.
The crux of Curzer's argument is as follows:
It is obviously important to teach our children to respect other people's traditions. But Jewish kids are being asked to keep the Santa secret because Christmas has been constructed in such a way that everyone must participate, or it is ruined. That is, when you stop and think about it, incredibly ominous.
While the author writes that she is fully on board with Jewish parents encouraging their kids to take a sort "surprise party" approach to Santa for the benefit of their Christian friends if they choose to, this has not curbed many huffy responses to her argument. Kveller's Facebook page has garnered more than 200 comments on the article, many of them indignant. The online parenting circles where I've seen this posted — largely Christian or nominally Christian — were similarly upset. Among those who bristled at Curzer's approach, the most common refrain I saw was "I respect everyone's beliefs! Everyone should respect mine!"
Except Santa isn't really a belief, is he? Not among us adults. So using the language of religious freedom in regard to a jolly mythical elf that we all acknowledge is indeed mythical is pretty disingenuous.
We're all in for Santa in the Kenney household because #whimsy.
Let me be up-front: I am strongly on the record as being "pro-Santa." Until I was 8, I went to bed every Christmas Eve giddy in the steadfast knowledge that Santa would be leaving me a tidy clutch of gifts. As a mom, I am overjoyed to give that experience to my own children — we're all in for Santa in the Kenney household because #whimsy. Some people say this is nothing more than lying to your children, to which I say "That's exactly what it is and it's awesome. Mmm! These lies taste like delicious gingerbread. Yummy yummy yummy!"
Look, there are lies we tell to avoid the truth, like "Your goldfish? Ummm... he's just sleeping, sweetie. Goldfish float when they sleep..." and I don't like those one bit. But there are also lies of pure invention. Sweet, creative, adorable, fun lies like "Santa Claus is coming to town! Let's write a list and leave out cookies and allow this creepy goddamn elf to stare at us with his dead eyes in silent judgment all month."
I can absolutely conjure up one more to cover for another child's honesty.
But it's still a lie. A really fun but completely optional lie. Look, would I be sort of annoyed if a kid, unprompted, told my 5-year-old that Santa isn't real and Rudolph is a marketing gimmick created by a Chicago department store? A bit. But, seriously, I'm already in deep with the Santa lying, and I can absolutely conjure up one more to cover for another child's honesty. Don't worry, my children will almost certainly believe me because I've conditioned them to believe in Santa in the first place and also children are extremely gullible, which is hilarious.
It's no one's responsibility to be as enthusiastic about my cultural traditions as I am. It's not up to someone else to ensure a merry Christmas for my kids. That's my job, and I'm jolly well happy to do it.


Two discernible instances, separated by a generation and thirty years, affirm Venezuela's major contributions to a long and patient universal legislative process in which custom and convention have alternated with one another to consolidate and emerging public order of the sea: surface, waters, bottom and subsoil. Two main issues, therefore, will be briefly dealt with in this Article. The first concerns the earliest treaty ever concluded between two States to delimit, explore and exploit a submerged area, namely, the Anglo-Venezuelan Gulf of Paria Treaty of 1942; the second brings to a focus the Venezuelan concept of the patrimonial sea, a compromise proposal introduced in the United Nations Sea-Bed Committee de lege ferenda as an official thesis in 1971. Obviously, a Brief Survey of the Developments in the Law of the Sea considered relevant to the subject matter, during the thirty-year time gap, could not be comfortably omitted.

US Navy seizes heroin worth $4 million in Arabian Sea
World Mena
Lebanon seizes millions of amphetamine pills in shipment of lemons
Published: December 30, 2021 21:28 Agencies

Dubai: United States Navy vessels seized 385 kilos (849 pounds) of heroin in the Arabian Sea worth some $4 million, in a major bust by the international maritime operation in the region, officials said on Thursday.
The USS Tempest and USS Typhoon seized the drugs hidden aboard a stateless fishing vessel plying Mideast waters, the international task force said in a statement. The seizure took place on Monday.
The Navy said the fishing vessel likely came from Iran. All nine crew members identified themselves as Iranian nationals, according to Cmdr. Timothy Hawkins, a spokesperson for the US Navy's Mideast-based 5th Fleet.
He did not elaborate on who manufactured the drugs or their ultimate destination.
As the task force ramps up regional patrols, it has confiscated illegal drugs worth over $193 million during operations at sea this year — more than the amount of drugs seized in the last four years combined, its statement said.
Heroin is trafficked to the Middle East and even Europe by land from Iran and Afghanistan through well-worn land routes in the Balkans, Southern Caucasus mountains or Saudi Arabia, according to last year's UN Global Synthetic Drugs Assessment. Smugglers from Iran have increasingly taken to sea to bring heroin into South Asia, the report added, with Iranian and Pakistani sailors often arrested near Sri Lanka.
Iran's porous 1,923km-long (1195 mile-long) eastern border with Afghanistan, the world's largest producer of opium, has turned it into a key transit country for the illicit drug trade.
Lebanese authorities, meanwhile, intercepted nine million pills of the recreational drug captagon inside a shipment of lemons, foiling an attempt to smuggle them to the Gulf, media reported.
Captagon - a mix of amphetamines also known as the "poor mans cocaine" - is one of the more popular recreational drugs among affluent youth in the Middle East.
"We want to send a message to the Arab world about our seriousness and our work to thwart evil from harming our Arab brothers," Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi said as he inspected the shipment at Beirut.
In October, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain expelled Lebanese diplomats and recalled their own envoys following a Hezbollah-aligned minister's critical comments on the Yemen war.
Riyadh also banned all imports from Lebanon. The United Arab Emirates recalled its envoys.
During their meeting this month, Gulf Cooperation Council leaders called on Lebanon to tighten border controls and take measures to deter drug smuggling via exports into Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states.
Dubai police said last week that they had uncovered around $15.8 million worth of captagon pills, also hidden in a shipment of lemons, and arrested four suspects.

Initiative was born under the frame of the Wine Regulatory Forum year 2013.
Outcome: to develop a Model Wine Export Certificate in order to reduce and simplify the export certificates to facilitate wine trade among APEC economies.
The APEC Model Wine Export Certificate was approved by regulatory and trade officials from APEC economies, during the APEC Peru in 2016.

Free distribution of face masks better than hot meals – Council of State Chairman suggests
Chairman of the Council of State, Nana Otuo Siriboe II
Council of State Chairman, Nana Otuo Siriboe II has proffered a suggestion to government regarding the prudent use of the COVID-19 Trust Fund in containing the spread of the novel coronavirus in the country.
He said as government is trying to control the spread of the virus, a better alternative to the mass sharing of food as witnessed some weeks ago will be the free distribution of face masks across the length and breadth of the country.
According to the traditional ruler, the distribution of hot meals in some parts of the country has seen major flaws as the principles of social distancing and the wearing of protective clothes have been blatantly disregarded.
Thus, distributing nose masks to all Ghanaians would be a better option to addressing the issues that plagued the distribution of free meals. In his words, though the nose masks will be freely distributed to Ghanaians, some privileged persons could donate some money in return to sustain the fund.
He said this would go a long way to curb the spread of the virus which has claimed nine lives in Ghana and more than 150,000 globally.
"Mr President…face masks and the wearing of same have become part of the regime of prevention, i.e the three Ts; Trace, Test and Treat. We have to accept that these will also mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 and much as we appreciate the integrity and good intentions of trustees of the COVID Trust Fund, we may make a small suggestion…in the fact that if they could go out there to have the face mask sewn in millions so that every Ghanaian could have the benefit of a face mask and have it adorned 'donated by COVID Trust Fund, it will help", Nana Nana Otuo Siriboe II said.
He continued that, "…They may be for free but others may want to take it and put a token gesture of an amount as also their part to prevent COVID 19. It may be a better substitute than giving food which may not even get the destinations where they are intended…and even negate the principles of social distancing…I'm not a scientist but I think distributing face masks across the length and breadth of the country would go a long way to helping us address the issue of the spread…"
Nana Nana Otuo Siriboe II was speaking on behalf of Council of State members at a meeting with President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the members of the constitutional body at the Jubilee House on ways to kick the deadly virus.
Decentralise COVID Trust Fund
He observed amongst other things the decentralization of the COVID 19 Trust Fund as a means of generating more funds to sustain the country's investment in kicking out the virus.
Nana Siriboe II indicated that this would enable "somebody in an outlandish part of the country to also contribute maybe through the DCE or the MCE so that his name too will be in the annals of those who came up to support with donations in times of crisis."

USAF celebrates milestone for F-35A operational stand-up
Four fighter jets from Hill AFB will be on loan to the 354th FW at Eielson AFB as they stand up F-35A operations. More jets on hand at Eielson AFB allows for more operational and maintenance training. (U.S. Air Force photo by Todd Cromar)
strike & air combat | 02 May 2020 | Stephen Kuper
The US Air Force's first combat-coded F-35A Lightning II wing is sending aircraft to the Air Force's newest F-35A wing to help speed its stand-up, which marks a major milestone for the delivery and operational capability of the fifth-generation fighter.
Four F-35A Lightning IIs from Hill Air Force Base's 388th Fighter Wing took off on a four-hour flight across the Pacific north-west for Eielson AFB, Alaska, on 27 April. They will become part of the 354th Fighter Wing's inventory for the next two months.
The Hill AFB aircraft join the first two F-35As Lockheed Martin delivered to Eielson AFB last week. Eielson AFB is scheduled to receive two or three F-35s per month from the factory until they reach a total of 54 aircraft in two squadrons by early 2022.
Colonel Steven Behmer, 388th Fighter Wing commander, said, "From our experience here, we know that when you're standing up a new program, every day is critical. By loaning them these four airplanes, we hope it helps fast-forward their ability to train and bring more capability to the Air Force as a whole."
The loan, which the operations and maintenance groups at both wings have been planning for a while, is a welcomed boost.
Colonel David Skalicky, 354th Operations Group commander added, "We're in the initial stages of F-35 operations here, and right now I've got more pilots than aircraft. We've been going TDY to get the sorties and hours we need, but COVID-19 put an end to that. So, the timing of this loan couldn't be better."
While the pilots need the aircraft to fly four-ship combat training sorties, the maintainers also need hands-on training time. The extra aircraft will allow the groups to better prioritise those opportunities.
The synergy built into the F-35's maintenance systems allowed the 388th FW maintainers to look across their current fleet and select four aircraft that were not likely to require any routine maintenance downtime, said Colonel Michael Miles, 388th Maintenance Group commander.
The jets are also close in production to the jets Eielson AFB will receive from the factory, so they will have the same parts and components in supply.
Providing aircraft isn't the only (or even the most important) support that Hill AFB has provided to Eielson AFB – those are people – experienced maintainers from the 388th who have been added to the cadre in the 354th MXG.
Once Eielson AFB's F-35A stand-up is complete, Alaska will be an even more robust training environment for the Air Force.
Col Skalicky added, "We're getting the benefit in the short term from this aircraft loan, but in the long term, this is going to enable us to give back to Hill (AFB) and the rest of the F-35 community. We've got a rare training airspace and a range with some of the most high-tech threat emitters.
"We've got the space you need to have to be able to effectively train with fifth-generation aircraft. We've got in-house aggressors here and Air National Guard tankers. At Elmendorf (AFB) we've got F-22s and AWACS. We've got everything you need in Alaska to train for that fight of the future."
The 388th FW's work got the Air Force to initial operational capability with the F-35A, and with this jet loan, Hill AFB is playing a large part in another milestone before the Air Force can declare full operational capability, COL Skalicky said.
"Our vision as the first combat-coded maintenance group has been owning the future and shaping the future, and this effort is in line with that. It is a win for us to help them get in the fight faster, and to no longer be the only combat-coded F-35A unit. In the long term, this provides us a brother in arms, who is going to take the fight to the enemy with us," Col Miles added.

Blinken says he hasn't seen evidence Hamas was in AP building Israel struck

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday he had not personally seen evidence that Hamas was operating in a building that housed offices for Al Jazeera, the AP and other media in the Gaza Strip, as the Israeli government has claimed, AP reports.
The latest: "The Secretary was referring only to what he personally had seen. As he made clear, any such information would be provided to others in the administration, not directly to the secretary of State," a senior State Department official told Axios.
Why it matters: Israel has said the presence of a Hamas military intelligence office justified an airstrike that destroyed the 12-story building on Saturday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told CBS News' "Face the Nation" Sunday that Israeli intelligence had shared proof with the U.S.
"Shortly after the strike we did request additional details regarding the justification for it," Blinken said at a press conference in Denmark Monday, later adding he has "not seen any information provided."
Blinken said he "will leave it to others to characterize if any information has been shared and our assessment of that information."
The state of play: The AP and Al Jazeera have also said they were not provided evidence that Hamas occupied the building.
The news outlets condemned the airstrike and called for an independent investigation, with AP President and CEO Gary Pruitt saying "the world will know less about what is happening in Gaza because of what happened today."
Acting director-general of Al-Jazeera Media Network Mostefa Souag called the strike a "war crime," describing it as an effort to curtail press coverage of the situation in Gaza.
"We have called on the Israeli government to put forward the evidence. AP's bureau has been in this building for 15 years. We have had no indication Hamas was in the building or active in the building. This is something we actively check to the best of our ability. We would never knowingly put our journalists at risk."
— AP President and CEO Gary Pruitt in a statement
In a phone call with Pruitt on Sunday, Blinken "offered his unwavering support for independent journalists and media organizations around the world and noted the indispensability of their reporting in conflict zones," according to State Department spokesperson Ned Price.
Editor's note: This story has been updated with comment from a senior State Department official.

Q: Is there a systematic way to find the range of functions? I was looking for steps or a systematic way to find the range of functions.
The way to find domain is quite obvious: exclude x-values that make the function undefined on the real numbers.
But the range is harder, I found several methods to find range:
$1)$ Intuition: to guess how the function behaves.
$2)$ Graph: to graph the function and get the range from it.
$3)$ Using limits and calculus to determine the min and max, and how the function behave at infinity.
$4)$ Domain of Inverse of function.
But the problem is there are some functions really hard to get their inverses. And I want to find the range analytically without graphs, limits or calculus tools.
Is there any systematic and direct way to find the range of functions ?
Thanks a lot for help.

A: If you want to go by fixed steps, you should do a proper analysis of the function. Back in the days at my school that meant the following:
1) State Domain
2) Investigate y-intercept
3) Investigate x intercept(s)
4) Investigate when the curve is above/under x-axis
5) Investigate vertical asymptotes/holes in the graph
6) State derivative
7) State Domain derivative
8) Make a numberline and determine intervals when function is increasing/decreasing
9) Determine max/min
10) Consider limits $x$ goes to infinity's, horizontal asymptotes?
11) Possibility of slant asymptotes or other asymptotic behavior.
12) Make a graph (nowadays use a calculator)
13) Determine Range
An option would be second derivative but in my school that was not standard on the list unless specified by the teacher.
Hope this helps

Q: Html table sorting using JavaScript or jQuery This is a image of my sample code. I want to sort this table data, column wise when click the each sort button in top in the table. This table contains PHP also.

Number
Date

            Three

            Five

            One

            Four

            Two

When user click on sort button, entire row should be sorted in acs or desc according to clicked column's data. Column  contains words and column 2 contains dates.
Anyone knows that help me please....
Thanks

A: Can you check jquery datatable plugin. That supports sorting, expanding columns for a table. Please see the link
https://datatables.net/examples/basic_init/table_sorting.html

A: I have used the tablesorter jQuery plugin. It is a light weight and a very good plugin for your needs. I think this will suits to your need.

A: I would start with this:
https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_js_sort_table
It's works just fine, and doesn't require even jQuery, let's alone jQuery plugins.
It's obviously, you should adapt code to sort with different columns names (not just for "Name"), but is easy enough.

A: You can use table-sorter (a client-side table sorting) and sort the table once after the page loaded. After that each of the columns is sortable by clicking the column header (It is in pure javascript and doesn't need jquery):

Football Science: Distance and Field Goal Kicking—Increasing the Odds of Scoring
By Amy Cowen on December 17, 2013 11:30 AM
Making it to the end zone on a last-second Hail Mary pass is one way to score in football, but when it's 4th and 30, a well-executed field goal for three points can be the game-tipping, winning play. What's the secret to a successful field goal? Thanks to support from Time Warner Cable, students can put the science and math involved in one aspect of field goal kicking to the test in a new Science Buddies sports science project that places a rubber-band catapult on the field as the team's football kicker. After seeing how your kicker does at varying distances, you can draw conclusions about when to call the kick team to the field.
Have you ever whiled away time with a triangular folded paper football that you and a friend shuffle with your fingertips back and forth, from edge to edge, across a table? When the football crosses the boundary of the edge without falling off the table, you score a touchdown and get to kick a field goal by resting the football on its point and flicking it through the air, across the table, and through the opposing team's finger goal posts.
Paper football is a classic, but perfecting the art of flicking a paper football with your thumb and forefinger won't necessarily translate to a better understanding of field football and how game-winning field goal kicking may depend on a number of scientific variables, including the trajectory of the kick, the way gravity plays upon the ball as it travels through the air, and how far away the kicker is from the goal posts.
Are the odds of making a field goal kick better if the kicker is closer to the end zone or farther away?
This is exactly the kind of question Time Warner Cable encourages students (and families) to explore through the Connect a Million Minds STEM in Sports area. Time Warner Cable has teamed up with Science Buddies to develop new science project ideas that help students turn interest in sports into exciting hands-on science projects.
An Indoor Football Sports Science Experiment
Paper football may not boost your football skills, but a fun hands-on science project might. Combine a rubber band-powered catapult kit from the Science Buddies Store with a homemade goal post and a few football-shaped party favors, and you have the makings of an end zone dance-worthy science project!
The new "Field Goal! The Science Behind a Perfect Football Kick" project from Science Buddies' Sports Science Project Ideas area guides students in an exciting sports science exploration that takes indoor paper football to the next level. Students will have a great time launching mini footballs through the air as they gather data for their science project. Once the official data is collected, it may be game on for students and a group of friends or family members with the catapult and goal setup!
After exploring the relationship between distance and kicking in the "Field Goal! The Science Behind a Perfect Football Kick" sports science project, you may approach your next game with a completely new perspective on when to kick and when to go for the first down on the ground. Whether you play football or just enjoy watching, math and science can help you narrow in on smart game strategies. Will your favorite team follow a strategy that lines up with the data from your science experiment? Keep track all season long and see how the numbers (and successful kicks) play out!

Students, teachers, and families will find videos from favorite professional sports players like Victor Kruz and Magic Johnson, sport-specific learning guides, and more sports science resources.
Catapult Your Way to Better Football Strategy
With the brand new "Field Goal! The Science Behind a Perfect Football Kick" science project from the Sports Science Project Ideas area at Science Buddies, students can dig into the science of football kicking using an indoor rubber-band powered catapult in the role of kicker.
With the controlled setup, students can kick multiple times from varying distances to find out if distance is related to the percentage of field goals made. This is a great science project for a football enthusiast, but it is also a super science activity for casual home or after-school exploration!
The catapult kit for this project is available in the Science Buddies Store.
(Note: the catapult kit can be used for a number of other Science Buddies Project Ideas as well!)
