Vatican to dig up graves in search for missing teen

The Vatican will dig up two graves Thursday after an anonymous tip-off that they may contain the remains of an Italian teenager who went missing 36 years ago.
Emanuela Orlandi, the daughter of Vatican employee, was last seen leaving a music class aged 15, and theories have circulated for decades about who took her and where her body may lie.
Orlandi's brother Pietro, who has campaigned tirelessly for the Vatican to open an investigation into her disappearance, will be present when the graves are opened at the Teutonic Cemetery.
The exhumation comes after the family's lawyer received a tip-off with a picture of an angel-topped grave in the cemetery, and a message which simply read: "Look where the angel is pointing".
The small, leafy cemetery, located on the original site of the Emperor Nero circus, is usually the last resting place for German-speaking members of Catholic institutions.
New potential murder victim in Vatican skeleton probe
The Vatican has opened its archives to detectives hunting for clues to the identity of a skeleton discovered in its embassy in Rome
Beyond St Peter's Basilica, in an area off-limits to tourists, neat rows of tombstones lie behind a wrought-iron gate, some shaded by palm trees, others bordered by pink roses.
The tombs that will be opened belong to two princesses, buried in 1836 and 1840.
Dating the bones
The remains found within will be removed and examined on-site by Italian forensic anthropologist Giovanni Arcudi.
He expects to be able to roughly date the bones within about five hours, he said in an interview published by the Vatican on Wednesday.
"The state of conservation of the bones is what will determine the time required.
"Much depends on the environmental conditions, on the microclimate in which they are found, on the humidity, on the presence of infiltrations, on possible actions of microfauna," he said.
It will be possible to say "whether a bone has been there 50 years or 150 years".
French-Spanish nun killed in Central African Republic: Vatican
Pope Francis paid tribute to the nun on Wednesday
He expects to be able to determine the gender and whether or not the remains belong to more than one person per tomb.
Arcudi will extract material for DNA analysis, regardless of his initial findings.
"The DNA test will be done in any case, in order to be certain and to exclude definitively and categorically the chance that any remains in the two tombs are attributable to poor Emanuela," he said.
Results could take up to 60 days, he added.
'Hoped to find her alive'
"I've always hoped she's alive, and to find her alive," 60-year-old Pietro Orlandi, whose mother still lives within the Vatican walls, told AFP on Wednesday.
"But if Emanuela is dead and is buried there, it's right that what has been hidden for so many years comes to light".
Vatileaks latest in long line of Pope scandals
Power-hungry cardinals, spies and a suspicious butler: "Vatileaks" is just the latest scandal to grip an institution dogged down the centuries by ...
According to some theories widely circulated in Italian media, the teen was snatched by a mobster gang to put pressure on the Vatican to recover a loan.
Another claim often repeated in the press was that she was taken to force the release from prison of Mehmet Ali Agca, the Turk who attempted to assassinate Pope John Paul II in 1981.
The family braced for a possible breakthrough last year, when human remains were found at a Vatican property in Rome.
In 2017, conspiracy specialists were driven into a frenzy by a leaked - but apparently falsified - document, purportedly written by a cardinal and pointing to a Vatican cover-up.
Five years earlier, forensic experts exhuming the tomb of a notorious crime boss at a Vatican church uncovered some 400 boxes of bones.
Enrico De Pedis, head of the Magliana gang, was suspected of involvement in her kidnapping and some speculated the youngster may be buried alongside him - but DNA tests failed to find a match.

New York Rangers News
Rangers Trade Dylan McIlrath To Florida For Steven Kampfer
By Bryan Winters@BTW8892 Nov 8, 2016, 4:32pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Rangers Trade Dylan McIlrath To Florida For Steven Kampfer
After spending the last dozen days with the Hartford Wolf Pack, Dylan McIlrath's run with the New York Rangers has officially come to an end. As per Bob McKenzie, the Rangers have traded McIlrath to the Florida Panthers in exchange from Steven Kampfer and a 2018 conditional 7th-round pick. In order for the Rangers to receive the 7th-round pick, McIlrath must play in 30 games this season, otherwise the draft pick is no longer included in the deal.
So essentially, the Rangers got a whole lot of nothing in return for a player that they had invested so much time into. Steven Kampfer was previously with the Rangers back in 2014 and was apart of the trade to free up a contract spot for Anthony Duclair prior to the 2014-2015 season. Not to mention, he was waived just two ago, and went unclaimed before being sent to the American Hockey League.
Unfortunately, this writing was on the wall for quite a while and the curious case of Dylan McIlrath has finally been put to rest. In the 38 career games that McIlrath suited up for the Rangers, he had 2 goals, 2 assists, 4 points and 84 penalty minutes.

Digital Seance, Capturable Loss
DIANA LI
We are participating in a digital seance. The screen you are looking at to read this article is your medium, connecting you to the streaming afterlife of the writer's thoughts and memories. Magnetically attracted to the medium, we have formed a close relationship, seeking contact with the digitized spirit. In this desire to come in contact with that which is far and distant in time and space, our cognitive experiences with screens become wrapped up in modes of displaced intimacy. We are in love with the act of processing moments and memories that are lost or absent. We are in mourning.
Technological mobility allows us to get places—to get busy. Light-emitting devices have the capacity to represent our memories: memories from many millennia ago to memories from a few milliseconds ago with the proximity of a selfie. When these devices malfunction and glitch, it is a reminder that the emotional scale of our memories are limited by the technology we use. We desire contact, so we experience intimacy with the memories that are passing and that have passed, which in turn are all contained in a series of rectangular screens.
There is a large canvas photo of my grandmother at my cousin's house in Peru. I remember this image from my childhood and when I visited last summer I made it a goal to capture a picture of the picture. I wanted to contain it in my device so that I could take a look at it later when I got back to California. I worried that I would forget this image of her or that I would lose visual access to it once we were far apart from each other. The photo gained a new immortality. I can now call upon it at any given time. I come in contact with the memory of my grandmother via digital seance. Although the pixelated version can be resurrected with the closeness of my device, it is also a reminder of how far away she is—and was—in time and place. Through the process of capturing, digitizing and displaying, we download, upload and live-stream memories that spiritually and cognitively displace us from the previous moment.

"We can't seem to be able to resolve the problem of the end, or what we see as Death's untimeliness, with our eyes wide open."[1]
With our eyes wide open, we participate in a constant mode of what I call "passing." Passing is the moment we are able to see ourselves blink when we are video chatting or live-streaming. We more often notice this in what we diagnose as a glitch or a lag, but it is visible in even the fastest technological speed. The seemingly short delay of turning the signal of a subject on camera to a pixelated image on screen demonstrates that these devices are not as "live" as we would like them to be. Time passes before the screen represents us. We see ourselves pass when our image, our past-self, moves into digital space before our eyes. As light passes between signals, similarly "passing" is the process of uploaded phenomena becoming past. With the overproliferation of streaming information, the materiality of the device is often forgotten through our automatic relationship with it. Glitch not only disrupts this automatism, it reminds us that this relationship is constantly changing, experienced in passing. In the active form of passing away, we are constantly witnessing the death of the previous moment.[2]
While one may argue the mirroring of our memories is heavily involved with the narcissism of the ego, through a different lens this constant passing also adheres to a constant state of mourning and unresolved closure. Song Dong's Touching My Father (1997 and 2002) is a poignant series of work involving affect, intimacy, and mourning through the use of screens.

Before his father passed, Dong photographed his father's reaction when he projected an image of his hand onto his father's face and heart. At first, with the light of the projected hand touching his face, his father appears to be uninterested as he smokes his cigarette. In the second photo, when the hand has moved toward his father's heart, he puts his cigarette down and his head turns toward the projected hand, its light shining with intensity on his chest. In another pair of photos, his father has taken off his shirt. His torso faces more toward the camera's direction and toward the direction of his son's presence. He is photographed sitting and contemplating his son's hand that both touches and doesn't touch his skin through the use of the projected light.

Considered a taboo in China for a father and son to show affection toward each other, let alone touch, this first part of the series displays an intimacy that Dong was able to acquire through the use of a screen. Dong and his father gathered in a moment of simultaneous distance and intimacy through the power of light and projection, opening up a relationship of consent and affection previously not experienced. In an era of rapid digital communication across global distances, these photographs attest to the liminal yet immense capacity for us to transmit love across invisible and performative boundaries. The power of light to record a disembodied hand and to be projected onto another body is a moment of intimacy empowered via technological means.
After his father passed, however, the medium gains new affective significance. Dong records himself actually touching his father's cold body on tape. This private and intimate moment is so packed with grief that Dong is emotionally incapacitated and cannot play the tape back to watch it. He encloses the tape in its plastic box and glues it shut. We must not only rely on the memory of the artist who recorded it, but also trust with extreme empathy his affective account. This is something that is difficult to achieve in a digital era where we are inundated with images and copies of images.
In the last part of the series, he projects an image of his father onto water. When he attempts to touch the image of his father, the image is disrupted by the shadow of his hand and the water's ripples. The memory of his father is erased through the fluidity of the water's surface. As he mourns the passing of his father, he points to a fragile glitch in nature, in light and in memory.
From his father's live reactions to his father's passing and existence as an image, the sequence of the recorded and projected subject informs the affective power of technology to display what remains in passing. At the same time, Dong's touch on the water implies the precarity of understanding the screen as a surface. He can touch his father (in the format of augmented reality), but the screen replaces and displaces the live and interactive intimacy. This work shows the paradox between the desire to capture and represent a distant person, a past moment or memory on screen, and the liminal capacity to come into contact with that passing subject due to the interference of the screen's surface. In an era of pixelated preservation, Song Dong's performance is a feedback loop, keeping the on-screen immortal and mourning the passing and receding distance of the subject.
"Por favor, cierra los ojos…el insomnio viene de la incapacidad de concluir."[3]
In Touching My Father, Song Dong did not use the handheld devices we keep in our pockets. He was able to embalm a tape-recording of an unusually intimate moment with his father, while intending to never watch it as it would bring too much heartache. Through this gesture, he was able to close his eyes. He was able to come to terms with his father's death. Although we may have the technical means to do the same to smart devices, we do not have that same emotional closure with our contemporary screens. Dong's use of touch also speaks to the ways we become absorbed within the haptic interactions of these intimate, light-emitting objects.
So how can we close our eyes? How can we reach for a conclusion? Is there even a conclusion and, if so, why do we need one? We can shut our screens off by pressing the power button, but we can always turn them back on with that same button. It is impossible to attempt a conclusion at the level of looking at or deleting content contained within the screen. The contemporary screen mobilizes us to record and immortalize images and information because it represents remote moments that have passed. Though mourning is commonly known to be a melancholic state of sorrow, grieving and lamentation, mourning also involves a deep process of reconciling absence and loss.
The process of reconciling passing moments can be seen in Dieter Kiessling's Two Cameras (1998). Two Cameras is a closed-circuit installation involving two cameras closely pointed at each other on auto-focus. The two cameras are each connected to their respective monitor and the sound of their moving lenses is amplified through the monitor's speakers. As one camera moves its lens to focus on the other camera, the second moves its lens to then reconcile the altered movement in the first camera. As their lenses keep moving in the attempt to focus on each other, both cameras are stuck in a perpetual loop, trying to catch up with the previous moment. They are in flux, in a fluid attempt to understand each other's live-fed information.
Dieter Kiessling, Two Cameras, 1998, Video Installation. Image accessed via Media Art Net. http://www.medienkunstnetz.de/works/two-cameras/.
While Kiessling successfully demonstrates both the mechanical achievement and inherent glitch of the auto-focus function, the two cameras are also caught in an intimate dialogue with each other as new yet repetitive image information is exchanged. Meanwhile, the live-fed images on the monitors are of the camera lenses, aiming directly at the viewer. The cameras almost function as eyes returning the gaze upon the viewer who attempts to focus on the piece itself. In this sense, glitch reminds us of our own eyes.
Contemplating the errors and faults of a device helps us work through the trauma of forgetting what is experienced in passing. As a closed-circuit installation, Two Cameras is a technologically minimalistic piece, yet it involves an analysis of power relationships between bodies that are both technological and organic. These particular relationships are loaded with having to deal with the constant change and loss of information.
It is arguable that through the containment and immortalization of pixelated images, we are afraid of forgetting or experiencing loss and mourning. However, this fear actually points to a constant state of mourning through our automatic need for digital seances. Through technological modes of displaced intimacy, the way we process information is directed at what has and will become lost or forgotten. In a digital seance, our attempt to communicate with the spiritual afterlife of language, images and memories is part of the process of reconciling what we know is and will be far away.
"The question that remains however, is whether our bodies will be resuscitated with our old defective eye, though it leads us, makers, to fear to create anything that no one can see, just as it limits what we create to everything that everyone can see."[4]
Diana Li, Forget Myself, 2017, Video Installation, Diego Rivera Gallery. Image courtesy of the artist.
Dealing with displacement, passing, and absence, the broken screen emphasizes the loss of what is already representatively lost, even if it is lost by the time it takes to transmit a single camera frame. Out of our control, the broken screen with its distorted vision, closes its own eyes. Through the interference of glitches, we can come to terms with the intimacy we have toward the object's capabilities and accept that the afterlife of a streamed moment is gone, lost and can no longer be captured.

Passing is also the passage of information from generation to generation. The change and fissures in each iteration of intergenerational info-mobility is attuned to how we think about diasporic memory. With this lens, we can start to reconcile the traditions or memories that are caught between the simultaneous loss and reclamation of each passing moment. ↩

Q: Updateable Oracle SQL Report using Oracle ApEx 4.1 Basically, I have an SQL Updateable report based on the following sample SQL query:
select A, B, C from my_table;

Based on this report, I have made column B a SELECT LIST based on a Named LOV - I have also assigned this column an id of "lov_select"
Column C here is also a text area
My question and unsure how to do this, is, as this report can vary in rows, assuming this report returns 3 rows, based on the value selected from the Column B - select list, I want to use this value in column B select list to retrieve another value from a table and then return this value into Column C text are field, alongside this select list value used.
I would like to do this via a Dynamic Action.
For example:
Column A                Column B (select list LOV)   Column C
----------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------------------------
Row 1                   NAME1                        returns 5
Row 2                   NAME2                        returns 6
Row 3                   NAME3                        returns 7

So if I change row 2 Column B and select "NAME2", I then want to execute a query using the value "NAME2" which would return a value of 6, which I then would like populated alongsde NAME2 into Column C.

A: Manual tabular form with source:
select
apex_item.text(1, empno) empno,
apex_item.text(2, ename) ename,
apex_item.text(p_idx => 3, p_value => deptno, p_size => 4, p_maxlength => 2, p_attributes => 'class="deptno"') deptno,
apex_item.text(4, null) dname
from emp

Imphal, February 27 2009: Strongly condemning the brutal murder of SDO Dr Th Kishan, driver A Rajen and Mondal Y Token by high ranking officials of the NSCN (IM), the KNF (Z) expressed shock over leaving behind the bodies near Taphou Kuki village in Senapati district although the three were abducted from Ukhrul district.
The act indicates that the NSCN (IM) was attempting to implicate innocent Kukis for the inhuman crime, asserted KNF (Z) in a press release issued by its information and public relations secretary GS Jona.

Saying that people of Manipur are witness to the whole drama, it said that the KNF (Z) will be seeing whether the NSCN (IM) punish the guilty officers involved in the heinous crime.
It also appealed to all departments and the general public to coo-perate with Steward Haokip, the outfit's finance in-charge for any financial matter.
The outfit cautioned all concerned with a fine of Rs 50,000 if any one is found printing letterhead of KNF (Z) without knowledge of the outfit's C-in-C.

Defending Against Agroterrorism: Modeling Pathogen Dispersion Pathway
Home / Articles / Journal Article / Spring 2018: Volume 5 Issue 1
Posted: April 11, 2018 | By: Robert Norton, Ph.D., Mary E. Cablk, Ph.D., Beverly Ausmus Ramsey, Ph.D., Kimothy Smith, Ph.D., Steven Bacon, Stephanie R. Ostrowski, DVM, MPVM, DACVPM, Jim Wright, Ph.D., DVM, Soren Rodning, DVM
It is widely recognized that American farmers and ranchers make a major contribution to the U.S. economy by providing a safe and reliable food supply, which promotes energy security, job growth, and economic development. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports that in 2015, agriculture, food, and allied industries contributed more than $992 billion to the gross domestic product (GDP)—representing a 5.5 percent share of the total [1]. America's farms alone contributed $136.7 billion in GDP [1]. Furthermore, the USDA indicates that the U.S. food and beverage manufacturing sectors together employ more than 1 percent (1.5 million people) of all non-farm employment [1]. An attack on American agricultural assets would threaten the security, safety, and availability of U.S. food supplies and cause significant economic damage to the U.S.
Agroterrorism is the deliberate introduction of one or more animal or plant diseases in order to generate fear, cause economic loss, and undermine social stability [2]. It is a subset of bioterrorism, a broader designation that generally refers to attacks aimed at human populations. Agroterrorism is attractive to some nation-states or groups because successfully disrupting a food supply can cause social as well as economic harm [3,4]. These concerns were exacerbated by the 9/11 terrorist attacks and subsequent anthrax attacks (which killed five and infected 17 others). Current federal strategies for preventing, detecting, and responding to agroterrorism and bioterrorism alike are informed by what is known about the Soviet Union's biological warfare agency, Biopreparat (Биопрепарат), and the 1979 anthrax leak at Sverdlovsk (now Yekaterinburg), which infected at least 94 people and led to 64 fatalities [5]. The resulting U.S. agro-defense strategy, valid at the time, has undergone significant refinement and must continue to do so as scientific breakthroughs continue to occur in biotechnology, cyber, and the fast approaching quantum computing.
Fortunately, there has not yet been an actual agroterrorism event in the U.S., but other countries have experienced examples where state actors used biological weapons against agriculture [4]. Serious questions exist regarding how we can most efficiently and accurately detect and—most importantly—discriminate between naturally occurring and terror-inspired disease events. Timely detection of an agroterrorism event is critical if we are to protect food supply and consumer health. Moreover, understanding the scope and nature of an agroterrorism attempt soon after its incidence may provide an early warning of potential ramifications for human populations.
The book Agroterrorism: A Guide for First Responders by R. Withers [6] explains why livestock are a more likely target for terrorism than crops—"Developing biological weapons to destroy livestock is much easier than developing chemical weapons for the same purpose. There are far more highly contagious and lethal biological agents that can be used. … [and] the high-mobility breeding and rearing practices contribute to the ease of dissemination of a disease." In line with the greater threat posed by animal-focused agroterrorism, we limit the discussion in this article to potential attacks on animal agriculture.
Potential Threats
Understanding the scope and nature of an agroterrorism attempt is important for protecting against the possibility of harm to human populations. "Because animals may be sentinels of disease in humans and many of the high-threat bio-agents…are zoonoses," Withers writes, "it is possible that veterinarians might recognize an event in animals before it is recognized in humans [7]." Only moderate levels of expertise and fiscal investment are needed to weaponize certain biological materials, and that task is made even easier if a weaponeer has access to pathogens through veterinary and/or medical diagnostic laboratory systems. It is safe to surmise that any advanced bioweapons program developed by an adversary would pursue the use of biological weapons in multipronged attacks that target both civilian and military targets.
As RAND Corporation expert Bruce W. Bennett testified before the House Armed Services Committee in 2013, "While there is evidence of North Korean biological weapons, little is known with certainty about the biological weapon agents the North has developed, which of these agents it has weaponized, and how it would use them [8]."
A recent unclassified report by scholars at Harvard contends that North Korea may already possess as many as 13 potential biological warfare agents, several of which could be pathogenic to both animals and humans [9]. As history has shown, biological weapons programs can be exceedingly difficult to detect. As Bennett continued, "Biological weapon programs are easier to hide than most military programs because they can be developed in a university setting or hidden within efforts to develop related vaccines [8]."
Given the ease with which biological weapons programs can be obscured from surveillance, it is imperative that the U.S. bolster its capabilities for detection, containment, and remediation of the agriculture domain, given that the confirmation that a hostile bioweapons program exists may only occur at the point of weapon delivery. In any agroterrorism event, delay of any type exponentially increases the scope and ultimate effects of the event.
Identifying Intentional Versus Natural Infections
The Department of Homeland Security has declared the Food and Agriculture industrial sector, which accounts for approximately one-fifth of all economic activity in the U.S., to be critical infrastructure and thus a necessary element of national security. The animal production industry is a network—both dispersed and concentrated—composed of complex production, processing, and delivery systems [4].
The mobility of animals and their by-products across jurisdictional boundaries (e.g., states, counties, nations, etc.) creates opportunities for uncontrolled natural and terrorist-planned outbreaks [10]. Such incidents could bring significant physical and economic harm. For example, in 2011, an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in the U.K. caused an estimated $25–30 billion in losses [11]. The 2014–15 outbreak of avian influenza (originating from wild birds) resulted in an estimated $3.3 billion in losses to the U.S. economy—the single largest animal health disaster in the United States [12].
Compounding the difficulties of detecting an incident, agroterrorism defense programs must consider the potential for contaminants to persist on farm grounds, facilities, and processing and transport equipment. It took several years to fully decontaminate the congressional office buildings and U.S. Postal Service sorting facilities where anthrax spores were spread in 2001, and those facilities were out of service until decontamination was completed.
An agroterror agent could similarly spread throughout the animal production chain for an indeterminate length of time, requiring ample resources for recommissioning. Differentiating an intentional disease outbreak from a naturally-occurring one remains challenging [13], and scholarly works have covered this topic extensively [14,15]. Time plays a critical role in making this determination. Many of the downstream impacts of mortality events, whether natural or terrorism, remain the same. The presentation of animal mortality can and has been confusing when deaths could be linked to a natural event just as easily as to an infection.
A classic example of unclear mortality presentation is anthrax, whose spores can lie dormant in the soil for decades and then produce sudden high-mortality outbreaks in unvaccinated, healthy animals. A July 2016 anthrax outbreak in the Yamalo-Nenets region of Siberia was Russia's first in 75 years, causing the deaths of thousands of reindeer and displacing dozens of traditional reindeer-herding families [16]. Initial reports on the event postulated that lightning strikes from a single storm event were the cause. Only after reindeer continued to die was it correctly identified as a natural anthrax outbreak. Ultimately, as many as 250,000 reindeer were destroyed by the end of the year as a regional animal depopulation measure [17].
It is reasonable to have concluded that the reindeer deaths were the result of lightning strikes. Indeed, shortly after the Yamalo-Nenets event, a separate lightning event killed 300 reindeer in Norway. The obvious question that follows is, what would this delay have meant in an actual agroterrorism event?
The Regulatory Context of Detection
The USDA has delegated its authority to prevent, detect, and respond to agroterrorism to the Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Coordination (OHSEC). Responsibility for complying with Homeland Security Presidential Directive/HSPD–9— Defense of United States Agriculture and Food also falls to OHSEC. This directive lays out national priorities for the defense of agriculture and food systems against terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other food supply emergencies. However, a recent audit report completed in March 2017 by the department's Office of the Inspector General (OIG) concluded that OHSEC's planning efforts for agroterrorism prevention, detection, and response were deficient. At present, the OIG concluded, OHSEC does not present an integrated and actionable statement of critical needs [18].
The functions necessary to do this correctly include intelligence analysis, law enforcement, animal health, plant health, public health, environmental remediation, and outbreak response and recovery. The 2008 Food and Agriculture Incident Annex (FAIA) to the National Response Framework, which addresses only the response and recovery element of agrodefense, lists USDA and HHS as Coordinating Agencies and a suite of strategic supporting agency partners. The update to the FAIA (expected in 2018) will provide additional specifics to the span of responsibility, along with blueprints for coordination.
Outbreaks first present themselves at the farm or facility level, so that USDA's National Animal Health Emergency Response Plan (NAHERP) assumes that detection of an animal disease takes place at the most local level [6]. Initial detection is therefore highly dependent on farming staff recognizing an unusual clinical presentation or a spike in cases, and thereafter reacting properly and in a timely manner. Ideally, these observations would then be immediately reported to a qualified veterinarian. In the United States, veterinarians who work with livestock herds must be accredited by the USDA and must be trained to recognize the clinical syndromes of Foreign Animal Diseases of concern, thereby increasing the likelihood of rapid recognition that an animal disease event has occurred. If the index of suspicion of an outbreak is high, the State Veterinarian's Office is then alerted.
Response and Containment: Modeling the Host Environment
Per NAHERP, should the presence of a foreign animal disease be confirmed, the premises will be placed under a quarantine order and a "movement hold" of all susceptible and affected animals will be established for a minimum of 72 hours [6]. The USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) directs the response (containment and remediation), while local law enforcement establishes control zones and controls access. The FBI and USDA OIG oversees documentation, evidence collection, and chain-of-custody procedures with support from local/state law enforcement agencies [2,6,19].
When an outbreak is determined to be verified and a coordinated response is mounted, one challenge is the lack of environmental modeling tools, which we describe below. Necessary planning components include the key area of characterization, risk determination, potential course of action, and a means of assessing the value of these measures to health. Outside the realm of biosurveillance, ecologists and epidemiologists have long been using environmental models to predict the transport, fate, and effects of contaminants on ecological receptors and on humans [20]. The transport and fate of materials released from natural disasters or anthropogenic events vary—as do their deleterious impacts to all life—by the biogeochemical processes of the host ecosystem. Therefore, regardless of why or how pathogens are released, both preparedness and response should be informed by those biogeochemical processes [21].
Rapid diagnostics, including patient-side diagnostics, may arguably be the most important element of an animal disease stockpile. The National Veterinary Stockpile, administered by USDA's APHIS, lacks both therapeutics and rapid diagnostics. Current biosensors for the detection of pathogens in food, livestock, and agricultural products include antibody- or immunologically- based tests and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. Antibody tests have an advantage over PCR testing when it comes to speed and cost—little to no sample preparation is required to conduct an antibody test. However, compared to a PCR assay, an antibody test has a relatively low sensitivity and specificity, and it typically requires laboratory-based PCR testing for confirmation. PCR testing, considered the gold standard, provides high-confidence results with excellent sensitivity and specificity, although a PCR test requires a rather rigorous sample preparation. The ability to quickly deploy a user-friendly diagnostic capability is essential to successfully contain an agroterrorism event.
One purpose of the Food Systems Institute at Auburn University is to provide meaningful preparedness and response tools based on risks to livestock, starting with poultry, beef, and pork, which are consumed by large segments of the human population. Epidemiological risk assessments have been conducted on historical animal disease events, but they lack comprehensive risk analysis and do not incorporate a broader picture to include ecological complexity along with human health.
Since 1900, there have been at least 15 documented cases involving the use of pathogenic agents/substrates to contaminate foods [2,22]. We analyzed example events from the last 100 years to inform both models and algorithms. We have further calibrated the resulting tools based on our event analysis. These models need appropriate parameters that illustrate the physiological landscape over which the events occur, including the routes that could lead to exposure of livestock.
With this approach, we can begin to predict a temporal likelihood for the incidence of infections and public health disasters, and optimize our surveillance and identification methodologies depending on data inputs such as the food source species and transport/processing routes leading to consumers, thereby producing a range of potential outcomes to inform public health and disaster response officials.
Data for Agroterrorism Event Modeling
Predictive models used in the forecasting of pathogen pathways are commonly based on a conceptual framework that considers the interactions among pathogens, hosts, and environmental conditions. Knowledge of the survivability of a given pathogen and an accurate characterization of the environment (ecosystem features, current weather conditions, etc.) are fundamental elements in forecasting dispersion patterns [11]. A variety of means exist for characterizing the natural landscape. For our purposes, ecoregions, used for characterizing the environment over large areas with similar physical and biological components, provide an appropriate and targeted representation of the landscape [23]. They are classified into hierarchical spatial groups that nest over large to small scales by analyzing the patterns and composition of a given area's geology, landforms, soils, vegetation, climate, land use, wildlife, and hydrology [24].
In our analysis, the highest resolution ecoregion level (IV) of the United States will be used to characterize each of the 15 documented case environments as an initial step in determining the environmental parameters that are favorable to pathogen survivability, which in turn can be used to assess the temporal and spatial risk of pathogen dispersal.
This modeling exercise requires a geographic tie, and spatial analytical tools within geographic information systems (GIS) need to (and should be) used as a platform for epidemic spread models [25,26]. Along with ecoregions, there are a variety of geospatial datasets available that support emergency management and ecological modeling which are applicable to our analyses.
Such GIS data includes land ownership, transportation, hydrology, elevation, the distribution of natural hazard zones, environmentally sensitive areas, land cover, animal species, climate variables, and soils, among others. Global food distribution models such as the Gridded Livestock of the World, v2 might be mined to inform the resource flows within our model.
Linking these datasets will ultimately aid in forecasting potential pathways, and also provide a model that can be used to simulate future scenarios under different pressures, such as increasing population, regulatory changes, climate change, natural disasters, etc. The utility of a successful comprehensive predictive model is to pinpoint a release origin, determine factors that influence origin type (natural or deliberate), and perhaps most importantly, to identify where response actions may be taken in the appropriate time frame. Armed with such a model, the ultimate product is risk reduction and preservation of human lives.

apple launches airpods max with a 'custom acoustic design'
After months of rumours, Apple has announced AirPods Max, the latest member of its headphone line that brings the technology of its popular AirPods earbuds to a new over-ear design to rival high-fidelity offerings from Sony, Bose and Beats. And in a nod to Apple's other ubiquitous wearable, the Apple Watch, the AirPods Max have a Digital Crown to control your music. The new headphones, which come in five colours to match the iPad Air 4 and cost a whopping £549, include all of the features Apple has brought to the AirPods and AirPods Pro, including active noise cancellation, Transparency mode and spatial audio. The somewhat large cups are wrapped in a 'breathable knit mesh canopy' that spans the stainless-steel headband and is designed 'to distribute weight and reduce on-head pressure'. That…
if you like the m1 macbooks, you'll love what's coming next
Apple's new M1-powered MacBooks have made a whole lot of noise in the industry since their launch just a month ago, but according to a new rumour, we've just scratched the surface of what Apple's new silicon can do. Bloomberg reports that Apple is hard at work on the chips that will power the next round of Apple silicon Macs and the top-of-the-line version could have as many as 32 high-performance cores. That's quite a step up from the current M1 chip, which has four high-performance cores and still outperforms nearly every Mac that came before it. The high-end chip is reportedly targeted for the launch of 'a new half-sized Mac Pro' in 2022. Apple sells the current Mac Pro with a 28-core Xeon processor for £12,499. On the consumer side,…
apple working on cellular modem, which could bring 5g to the macbook
2020 delivered a host of improvements to Apple's silicon offerings, including the A14 Bionic and M1 processors, and it appears that the company is looking to bring even more components in-house. A recent report from Bloomberg claims that Apple has begun working on its first cellular modem to bring 5G to its growing system-on-chip components. The development of a 5G modem isn't a surprise, as Apple paid a billion dollars on the remains of Intel's smartphone modem chip business back in 2019. According to the report by Mark Gurman, Apple senior vice president of hardware technologies Johny Srouji told attendees at a recent town hall that Apple "kicked off the development of our first internal cellular modem which will enable another key strategic transition". Development will likely take years to land…
microsoft office 365 apps now run natively on apple silicon macs

To install the updated apps, check the Mac App Store, or open an Office app, click the Help menu and select Check for Updates. A Universal version of Microsoft Teams is still under development. In the meantime, Teams runs under Rosetta on Apple silicon Macs. Microsoft also previewed many new features that are coming within a few weeks and in the early part of 2021. An upcoming update to Outlook will support iCloud and UI enhancements to match the look of macOS Big Sur. In January, Microsoft will release a revamped Office Start, which will incorporate Microsoft's…
3 rules to understand the price of apple products
It's as regular as the turning of the seasons. Apple announces a new product and then the complaints that it's overpriced start rolling in. Now, I'll be the first to admit that selling a pair of headphones for £549 does seem a bit much. Will it succeed? That remains to be seen – and Apple sometimes does misjudge its prices, as happened with the original HomePod. But in general, you should not be surprised about Apple selling a product for a high price. Its pricing strategy shifts from product to product and from year to year, but it's worth keeping in mind some basic rules of Apple pricing. SEEK BARGAINS ELSEWHERE Rule 1: Apple will never be the low-price leader in a category. While the company's critics will claim its products are endlessly overpriced,…
review: macbook air (m1)
Price: £999 from fave.co/3h8sDrP When Apple said it would start producing Macs with its own system-on-chip processors, custom CPU and GPU silicon (and a bunch of other stuff) to replace parts from Intel and AMD, we figured it would be good. I never expected it would be this good. Looking at the incredible performance of Apple's A-series SoCs for iPhones and iPads, one could extrapolate to a laptop chip that offers really good efficiency and performance. To say that Apple delivered would be the understatement of the year. The MacBook Air with the new M1 processor so absolutely and thoroughly trounces the Intel version released earlier this year (with Intel's 'Ice Lake' Y-series CPU/ GPU) that it defies belief. Unfortunately, Apple changed practically nothing else about the MacBook Air. This new model is…

A Documentary Film by Steven Sebring
Shot over 11 years by renowned fashion photographer Steven Sebring, "Patti Smith: Dream of Life" is an intimate portrait of the legendary rocker, poet and artist. Following Smith's personal reflections over a decade, the film explores her many art forms and the friends and poets who inspired her — William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Bob Dylan, Robert Mapplethorpe and Michael Stipe. She emerges as a crucial, contemporary link between the Beats, punks and today's music. Shot in lush, dark tones, featuring rare performance clips and narrated by the artist herself, "Patti Smith: Dream of Life" is an impressionistic journal of a multi-faceted artist that underscores her unique place in American culture.
"Patti Smith: Dream of Life"
Presents Evocative Portrait of the Legendary Rocker and Artist, Wednesday, Dec. 30, 2009, at 9 p.m. in Special Presentation on PBS' POV
Smith was both participant and witness to a seminal scene in American culture; film portrays her friendships and work with Robert Mapplethorpe, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Sam Shepard and Bob Dylan.
"Created over a heroic 11 years … a lovely … first feature. … Mr. Sebring creates a structure for the film in which past and present seem to flow effortlessly and ceaselessly into each other." — Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
Shot over 11 years by acclaimed fashion photographer Steven Sebring, "Patti Smith: Dream of Life" is a remarkable plunge into the life, art, memories and philosophical reflections of the legendary rocker, poet and artist. Sometimes dubbed the "godmother of punk" — a designation justified by clips of her early rage-fueled performances — Smith was much more than that when she broke through with her 1975 debut album, Horses. A poet and visual artist as well as a rocker, she befriended and collaborated with some of the brightest lights of the American counterculture, an often testosterone-driven scene to which she brought a swagger and fierceness all her own.
In "Patti Smith: Dream of Life," the artist's memories of these times, and of a period of domestic happiness and the tragedies that brought her back to the stage, attain an intense, hypnotic lyricism, much like that of her own songs. The two-hour film has its American broadcast premiere in a POV (Point of View) special presentation on Wednesday, Dec. 30, 2009, at 9 p.m. on PBS, concluding POV's 22nd season. (Check local listings.) American television's longest-running independent documentary series, POV is the recipient of a Special News and Documentary Emmy for Excellence in Television Documentary Filmmaking.
"Patti Smith: Dream of Life," winner of a 2008 Sundance Film Festival Award for Excellence in Cinematography, is a riveting, intimate telling of Smith's long, strange trip. She may not be the only middle-class Jersey girl to have made the leap to New York City in pursuit of artistic dreams, but she may be the only one to have emerged — and survived — as a multifaceted poet, artist and rock star. Through performance footage, interviews, poems, paintings, photographs and Smith's voice-over reminiscences, "Dream of Life" reveals a complicated, charismatic personality wrestling with the paradoxes of being an artist in America and of being a woman in a male-dominated music scene.
Smith also wrestles with the tragedies — the deaths of her husband and brother — that brought her back to New York and to performing. Layering Smith's words over innovative camera techniques, the film explores how one woman discovered herself through music, how she survived tragedy, how she raised two children and how she endeavors in a quest for peace, for herself and for the world.
In telling Smith's story, Sebring plumbs the history of several important cultural movements. Smith's collaborations and close friendships with poets William Burroughs, Gregory Corso and Allen Ginsberg, photographer Robert Mapplethorpe and musicians Bob Dylan and Michael Stipe reveal the links that make her a bridge between the Beats, the punk movement and musicians of today. The colorful moments in "Dream of Life" are plenty: Smith as an angelic street urchin, reciting "A Prayer for New York" in footage from 1975; a jam session with her 1970s collaborator, playwright Sam Shepard; Smith reading an Allen Ginsberg poem at Ginsberg's funeral; and Smith hanging out on the beach with Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Shot in lush, textured 16mm film, "Dream of Life" is a vibrant chronicle of rock history and the story of a bold woman who would not be denied on stage or off. It is also the story of a survivor whose creative intelligence thrives more than 30 years after the world first became aware of her.
"A few weeks after I met Patti in 1995, she invited me to see her perform at Irving Plaza in New York City," says Sebring. "I was completely blown away; she wasn't the person I had met at her home in Detroit. She had been this really sweet, almost innocent woman. And then at Irving Plaza, she was raging, spitting music and spewing poetry. It was fantastic. After the show, I asked her, 'Has anybody ever filmed you?' I didn't know at the time that there was so little documentation of her aside from concert footage.
"I kept shooting as Patti's life kept changing; over the years, we've become like brother and sister," Sebring says. "They call her the punk poet prophet. Well, I'm one of her soldiers, or one of her messengers. I want to turn people on to Patti Smith."

Patti Smith | One of the early pioneers of New York City's dynamic punk scene, Patti Smith has been creating her unique blend of poetic rock and roll for more than 35 years. She was born in Chicago in 1946 and was raised in southern New Jersey before migrating to New York City in 1967 and teaming up with art student Robert Mapplethorpe, who pursued painting and drawing while Smith focused on poetry.
In February 1971, Smith had her first public reading at St. Mark's Church on the Lower East Side, accompanied by Lenny Kaye on guitar. That same year, she co-wrote and performed the play Cowboy Mouth with Sam Shepard. Smith formed a band and performed at the legendary CBGB in 1975. She and the group subsequently recorded four albums: Horses, Radio Ethiopia, Easter (which included her Top 20 song "Because the Night," co-written with Bruce Springsteen) and Wave.
In 1979, Smith retired from the public eye and moved to Detroit with Fred ''Sonic'' Smith. They married in 1980, had two children and wrote songs together with no regret for their self-imposed exile from show business. In 1988, they recorded Dream of Life, which included the classic anthem "People Have the Power." It was Smith's final collaboration with three of her closest companions, who all met with untimely deaths: Mapplethorpe, who photographed her for the cover; Richard Sohl, who played keyboards; and her husband, who composed the music.
Smith released Gone Again, a highly acclaimed meditation on passage and mortality, in 1995. The album and the related tour, which had Smith opening for Bob Dylan, marked Smith's re-emergence as a performer and the beginning of her collaboration with Sebring on "Patti Smith: Dream of Life."
Smith has worked with museums all over the world. In 1999, she read at the Whitney and Guggenheim Museums. In 2000, she participated in the launching of the William Blake exhibit at London's Tate Gallery. She worked with the Metropolitan Museum of Art in conjunction with its Blake program in 2001 and its Diane Arbus exhibit in 2005.
She is the author of Witt, Babel, Wool Gathering, The Coral Sea and Complete. Her photographs have been exhibited internationally, as have her drawings, which have been shown at The Museum of Modern Art in New York. In 2002, "Strange Messenger," an exhibition of her drawings, silkscreens of images depicting the remains of the World Trade Center after 9/11 and Polaroid photos opened at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh. The exhibit was then featured at the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston and the Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia and continues to be viewed in museums throughout the United States, Europe and Japan.
In 2003, Smith was the recipient of the Torino Poetry Award and the Premio Tenco, both in Italy. She received the Women of Valor Award at the ROCKRGRL Music Conference on November 10, 2005, exactly 30 years to the day after the release of Horses. That year, she was awarded Commandeur des Arts et des Lettres, the highest grade awarded to artists who have contributed to furthering the arts throughout the world, by France's minister of culture.
Smith's recent albums include 2005's Trampin and Horses/Horses, the 30th anniversary re-issue of Horses. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007. Her latest volume of poetry is Auguries of Innocence. She is currently finishing a book on her artistic growth and friendship with Mapplethorpe, while preparing for an exhibit of her visual works at the Cartier Foundation in France.
