　　Looming above passersby in Lisbon, Portugal, a gigantic raccoon protrudes from the side of a building. A close look at this multimedia street sculpture reveals that the raccoon's eyes are made from discarded tires, its arms from dented bumpers, and its claws from assorted metal scraps. This larger-than-life 3-D street mural is the creation of Artur Bordalo, a Portuguese artist whose unusual animal sculptures made out of garbage are attracting international attention. That's exactly what Bordalo wants: his goal is to raise awareness about the destructiveeffects of excess consumerism. To that end, the broad appeal of the animal world serves Bordalo's purpose well. After the spectacle of the towering raccoon captures the interest of passersby, the sculpture's materialsdemandthat viewers confront the waste products that are harming the natural world.

　　Writing & Language

　　The creation of today's animated films, frequentlyhailed for their lifelike artistry, relies heavily onmathematics. Animators use algorithms, orsequences of mathematical steps, to create, forinstance, the rounded shapes making up an oldman's knobby knuckles or a young girl's bouncy hair. One of the algorithms now considered an industry standard repeatedly subdivides a polygon bysplitting and averaging the midpoint of a line. Developed by Pixar Animation Studio's TonyDeRose, this algorithm eliminated the problem of discernible edges of polygons by replacingthem with the seamlessly rounded curves of the parabolas that emerge as a result of thepolygon subdivision process. Innovations such as DeRose's depend on an understanding ofapplied mathematics in areas such as geometry, linear algebra, trigonometry, and calculus.
