Corpses of Foreign ISIS Extremists Pile up in Mosul
by Asharq Al-Awsat | Jul 9, 2017 | Middle East |
Mosul – Miles away from their homelands, the bodies of foreign ISIS terrorists have been piling up on the ruins of the Old City of Mosul.
These extremists, including dozens of Frenchmen, have displayed the fiercest resistance in their defense of their stronghold in the second largest Iraqi city, reported AFP.
More than three quarters of the remaining terrorists in Mosul are foreigners, according to Iraqi commanders who have reported a spike in suicide attacks as anti-ISIS forces close in on the Old City.
"They never surrender," said General Abdel Ghani al-Assadi, a commander in Iraq's elite Counter-Terrorism Service.
"Old Mosul will be their graveyard."
It was in Mosul in July 2014 that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi made his only public appearance, to urge sympathizers worldwide to move to his so-called "caliphate", proclaimed less than a week earlier, straddling Iraq and Syria.
Thousands of foreigners responded to his call.
According to Iraqi police and army commanders, most of the foreign ISIS extremists still in Mosul in recent months came from Russia, particularly Chechnya, and other former Soviet bloc countries, as well as various Arab states.
Then come Muslims from Asia — Afghans, Pakistanis, Uighurs from China — as well as Europeans from France, Germany, Belgium and Britain, along with Americans, the same sources said.
They are also believed to include a few dozen terrorists from other French-speaking countries.
"Most of them come from countries such as Algeria, Morocco or Tunisia," said General Abbas al-Jabouri, a commander of the police Rapid Response force.
Pale, hungry civilians who managed to escape from the Old City described the foreign terrorists as cruel men who detained them in houses, many of which were bombed out.
When Iraqi forces launched an assault on the Old City on June 18, foreigners accounted for only 20 percent of the 1,200 extremists identified at the time, according to army officers.
But most Iraqi terrorists have fled by mingling in with the flood of civilians fleeing the Old City.
The army says many were arrested, but officers privately estimate that several hundred were able to slip through the cracks.
Foreigners though would be "arrested immediately" during exit screening, says Lieutenant Colonel Haider Hussein, instantly recognizable because of their poor grasp of Iraqi Arabic.
An Iraqi officer is more blunt: "When we see them, we kill them".
In May, the Wall Street Journal reported that France had asked Iraq to hunt down and eliminate 27 French extremists in Mosul to prevent them returning to Europe.
France, as well as the Iraqi commanders, denied the existence of such a list.
But Assadi said: "All ISIS terrorists who do not surrender must be killed, whatever their nationality."
According to several Iraqi officers, Western intelligence services take DNA samples from the bodies of extremists.
At the beginning of the battle, eight months ago, the terrorists preferred ambushes, snipers and car bombs. Then, in the narrow streets of the Old City, they sent more and more suicide bombers.
In the last areas where they are now entrenched, sometimes with their families, "they wait in the houses, and when our forces enter, they open fire or blow themselves up," said Hussein.
"That's the only strategy they have left."

For this week's "Friday Five," I figured I'd curate a list of five great online sources for office gear - supplies, decor, and general workspace goodness, all with way more style than your average Staples store. If you're going to be cranking out work every day - which, face it, most entrepreneurs are - then why not do it from a gorgeous, inspiring environment?
Urban Girl: This site carries pretty much everything - crazy colorful desk supplies from Poppin, the uber-luxe collection, from Kate Spade and Lilly Pulitzer, and (my favorite) the simple, muted products from Semikolon. That's just the tip of the iceberg, though, as this gal sells just about everything. Even better, the site is super fun to navigate, you can search by color, designer and product, and there are tons of inspiration photos. It'd be pretty much impossible not to get excited about designing your workspace after looking around here.
Quill:Okay, so the site looks like your typical office-supply retailer. And most of it is the same. But the section I've linked contains some pretty cool stuff, reasonably priced for what it is - Cynthia Rowley's gold abstract and floral lines, lots of modern furniture, and bright, colorful supplies in every hue of the rainbow (and some that aren't in the rainbow).
See Jane Work: This eminently browse-able site is perfect for finding inspiration - tons of supplies organized by type and by style, as well as a fantastic collection of work-appropriate bags.Don't miss all the advice posts on their blog, with organizing tips and more.
So there you have it...five fantastic sites for leveling up your office!

I earned my PhD in 2014 from Arizona State University, then obtained three independent postdoctoral fellowships in computer simulation modelling (McGill University, Canada), virology (Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research, Germany) and disease signalling (Durham University, England). This diverse training underpins my collaborative, interdisciplinary approach to science. In 2019 I joined the University of Stirling's Psychology Department as a lecturer.
My work integrates disease ecology and animal cognition. I am interested in the role of cognition in the evolution of behavioural defences against infectious disease. This has both applied and theoretical implications.
I use a One Health approach to conservation. The One Health concept recognises that the health of humans, animals, and the environment are inextricably connected. By better understanding how animals communicate their health statuses and perceive the health cues of group-mates, we can improve our knowledge of how animals' responses to infected group-mates influence disease transmission dynamics. For example, if animals avoid infected group-mates, it may reduce transmission, but if they target sick and weakened competitors with aggression, it could accelerate transmission. This information can benefit conservation and zoonotic disease monitoring programs.
My work also has exciting new theoretical implications. Humans have a very unusual strategy for disease control -- we provide care to sick and infectious individuals. I am developing a novel theoretical framework which situates the evolution of human care-giving (for the sick) within the broader context of animal health and cognition.
I am always happy to chat with students about project ideas, so if you are interested in working with me, send me an email and I would be happy to meet with you.

A budget is the monetary reflection of an organization's values. By setting goals and expectations for revenue and expenses, the organization creates a tangible expression of what it hopes to accomplish and how it intends to get there. All budgets—including ATA's—express factual information and embody our hopes and goals.
ATA's budget process begins each year at ATA Headquarters, where our Executive Director, Mooch Bacak, and our Accounting and Finance Manager, Kirk Lawson, prepare an initial draft. The information is compiled in a multi-tab spreadsheet with hundreds of individual items that cover everything from the Annual Conference's food and beverage expense to website hosting and the certification exam's proctors. That draft becomes the working budget and is reviewed by ATA's treasurer (yours truly, in this case) and shared with the Finance and Audit Committee (FAC).
Once the working budget is approved at the spring ATA Board of Directors meeting, individual items are tweaked over the summer by the executive director, accounting and finance manager, and treasurer before a final version is again presented to the FAC. With the FAC's approval, the budget is then presented to the full ATA Board for final discussion and approval. Our current budget was recently approved at the Board's quarterly meeting in Portland, Oregon.
ATA operates on a fiscal year that goes from July to June, with our yearly budget covering that same period. This fiscal year has been chosen to avoid an accounting and tax bottleneck at the end of the calendar year, shortly after the Annual Conference, at a time when many members are joining and renewing.
In terms of our current budget for FY2018–19, the headline figure is an estimated $3.24 million in revenue. Most of that will come from membership, which should generate $1.95 million, or 60% of incoming funds. The Annual Conference is our second largest source of revenue. This year, our event in New Orleans is expected to bring in roughly $1.0 million. Apart from membership and the conference, all other revenue streams combined at ATA are responsible for less than 10% of annual funds.
On the other side of the ledger, we have set the operating budget at $3.16 million. The single biggest line item is salaries and benefits, at $1.39 million, or 44% of expenses. It covers the staff at ATA Headquarters who keep ATA running throughout the year, planning the conference, managing the website, organizing events, overseeing certification, and providing support to all the divisions and chapters. Our programs are next, with a budget of $1.06 million. This figure includes the Annual Conference, responsible for the lion's share of outlays, at around $600,000. Funds have also been earmarked for ATA's Certification Program ($204,500) and The ATA Chronicle ($120,500). In addition, this year, we have expanded the public relations/marketing budget to $65,000 and set aside $60,000 to begin updating/upgrading our website and database.
Overall, if we stick to the current budget, we can expect to close out FY2018–19 around $77,000 in the black. In short, ATA is on sound financial footing, and our budget represents a responsible and sustainable allocation of available funds.

A Watch Tower from King Hezekiah period was exposed by IDF paratroopers
Uncategorized / By Erez Speiser
Soldiers and officers from the Paratroopers brigade and the Israel Antiquities Authority discovered the tower, which was apparently used to transmit messages through beacons.

An observation tower from the days of Hezekiah the King was recently exposed in archeological excavations made by soldiers of the Paratroopers brigade. This is part of the activities of the "IDF Defense for Nature – Officers taking responsibility for the environment" project, led by the Israel Antiquities Authority.
Archaeologists estimate that the tower, which was built in the 8th century BCE, was established at a high geographic point and used to transmit messages through beacons.
The tower allows observation of the Hebron Mountains, the Judean plain and the surrounding area of Ashkelon that was an important town of the Philistine enemy. It was built of exceptionally large stones, some of which reach 8 tons and rise to a height of about 2 meters
About 150 soldiers and officers from the Paratroopers Brigade participated in the excavation over a period of several months. The project was established in 2014 with the aim of encouraging officers and soldiers to be actively involved in preserving the natural, landscape and heritage values in their surroundings. Today, 60 centers of activity operate throughout the country.
"The IDF, as a melting pot for the diverse Israeli population, is a unique meeting point for people from all parts of the country, through which environmental activities create a strong connection with them," said Guy Salai, the project manager for Israel Antiquities Authority.

LHMP #340 Frangos 2009 The Woman in Man's Clothes and the Pleasures of Delarivier Manley's 'New Cabal'
Frangos looks at representations of female same-sex desire in Delarivier Manley's "New Cabal" in the satire The New Atalantis, specifically focusing on female masculinity (to use Halberstam's terminology). [Note: I'm afraid this article got off on the wrong foot for me because it stakes a claim that desire for "the representation of men in women" is the primary form that desire takes in this depiction, but leans heavily on one passage that I believe Frangos has drastically misinterpreted.]
LHMP #334d Boehringer 2021 Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome Chapter 2a: Classical and Hellenistic Greece – Plato's Symposium
One of the more intriguing classical Greek texts that includes f/f erotics is the mythological narrative included in Plato's Symposium about divided beings and eros being "seeking one's other half." Following Boehriner's standard approach, she begins by examining the historic and literary context of the work and discussing what the purpose of the passage is within that larger context.
LHMP #334c Boehringer 2021 Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome Chapter 1b: Myth and Archaic Lyric Poetry – Other Media
We now turn to the non-poetic sources from the Archaic era. We start with a painted plate from circa 620 BCE from the island of Thera. It shows two female figures facing each other, each holding a garland. One is touching the other's chin, otherwise the figures are symmetric and show an equal interaction in their postures and gazes. This contrasts with the use of the same tropes for m/f or m/m couples where there is an asymmetry (in m/m couples, the person doing the chin-touching is always an older man and the one being touched is younger).
LHMP #334b Boehringer 2021 Female Homosexuality in Ancient Greece and Rome Chapter 1a Archaic Poetry
Introduction: Scope
I forgot to include this last bit of the introductory material. The author discusses the scope of the work and the nature of the evidence. The late cut off is to exclude Christian texts. But the types of data vary across the scope and this corresponds to different attitudes towards f/f sex. So the analysis can't entirely be a comparison across eras or a clear picture of development over time.

LHMP #330e Klein 2021 Sapphic Crossings Chapter 4
Legs, as a feature of cross-dressing, are legible primarily in the context of actresses playing male roles. The clothing of the day meant that women's legs were normally concealed. That meant that, on stage, women's exposed legs both represented masculinity and were potentially a powerful erotic stimulus. The dramatic fiction that cross-dressing actresses were "men" in their roles gave license for women to find them desirable, as well as for others to deny the same-sex aspect of that desire.
LHMP #302 Traub 1994 The (In)Significance of 'Lesbian' Desire in Early Modern England
Traub claims the title of this article is a "bait and switch" as she follows Halperin in treating "homosexuality" as such as only existing in the last 100 years, with "the lesbian" as an even more recent discursive invention.
LHMP #301 Klosowska 2005 Queer Love in the Middle Ages

LHMP #277 Trumbach 2012 The Transformation of Sodomy
I'm going to start this summary by noting that the more articles I read from Randolph Trumbach, the grumpier I get. When the highlights on my pdfs are augmented by scribbled red pen notes saying "No! Wrong!", it's not a good sign. So I don't exactly come into this summary with an unbiased mind.
LHMP #251 Abbouchi 2018 Yde and Olive
Abbouchi tackled creating this edition and translation of the more complete of the two versions of the romance as a master's thesis. [There are three related texts of the core story of Yde and Olive, two variants as part of the Huon of Bordeaux romance cycle, and one adapted (with different character names) as a miracle play. The second version of the romance is more abbreviated. The three vary in the details of how the relationship between the two women is presented, and in how the "problem" of a same-sex relationship is resolved.]
LHMP #249 Loughlin 2014 Same-Sex Desire in Early Modern England: 1550-1735
When one of my summaries is basically a list of contents, either it means that the publication is really thin on relevant content, or it means that it's so rich that you simply need to buy the book and put it in a cherished place on your shelf. This one is the latter. At least half the contents apply to women's experiences (although it's still true that the male-authored female-relevant content far outnumbers the female-authored male-relevant content) and the collection includes many of the oft-cited texts from the covered period. Far from all, but an excellent place to start.

Here's another big juicy flash game from Channel 4 for you: made by Preloaded, and to complement the C4 factual drama 1066, it's a historically accurate (right down to the taunts) military strategy game. Multiplayer, too!
Go. And don't cheat by making up an army of all archers, either. That tactic only works some of the time. I should know.
urgh, so much potential, but then they go and make me do pointless mini-games, ruining almost all of the strategy elements!
It's so pretty as well!
Fun, but I didn't have a clue how to fire arrows for at least 10 rounds and got owned.
Heh, cool. That's some good coffee break recreation. V. slick.
Reminds me a little of one of my all time faves, North and South (the archery mini game is a sweet touch).
And Ian Holm's narration really polishes it off nicely.
The all archers army idea is fun to play against. They literally can't fight to save their lives.
One thing at him about this game that has just happened to me (still making this kid wait) is that if you are losing and you still have archers is that you can go into firing mode and not fire until the other person surrenders. Right now there is some inmature kid I am playing against doing that to me. So I will see how long I can wait him out.
I think a crusade mode would be good, maybe with Crusaders, Saracens and Pangans, but with more units than only 4.
I just emailed the creators about a new one. FINGERS CROSSED!

Why One Health is Key To Address Future Pandemics
As future pandemics are likely to emerge from the coronavirus family of viruses and other zoonotic pathogens, an integrated approach to develop vaccines for zoonotic diseases is essential for success
byCraig Carter,Thomas Monathand1 others
in Health, Society
The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, a zoonotic disease passed from animals to humans, from humans to humans, and humans to animals, ranks as the worst infectious disease outbreak to occur globally in over one hundred years. The Covid pandemic demonstrated once more the interconnections between human and animal health and the environment: Those interconnections, as will be shown here, cannot be ignored if success is to be achieved in addressing future pandemics.
Major international organizations, WHO, FAO, UNEP, and the OIE, have recently agreed on the following definition of One Health that highlights the interconnectivity central to the concept:
One Health is an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals, and ecosystems. It recognizes the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment (including ecosystems) are closely linked and interdependent. The approach mobilizes multiple sectors, disciplines, and communities at varying levels of society to work together to foster well-being and tackle threats to health and ecosystems while addressing the collective need for clean water, energy, and air; safe and nutritious food; taking action on climate change, and contributing to sustainable development. Source: The One Health High-Level Expert Panel
Scientific data indicate that Covid came from a SARS-like virus group that infects bats and pangolins in Asia and Southeast Asia. Globally, reported clinical cases have just tipped over 518 million cases with over 6.25 million deaths. Some news sources state that global deaths are underreported by up to 300%.
While social distancing, contact tracing, isolation, quarantining, and novel drugs have helped to curb the spread of the virus, vaccination by innovative and rapidly developed products has led to significantly reduced hospital stays and decreased mortality.
The success of vaccination has been amply demonstrated by the fact that most severe cases, hospitalizations and deaths are in unvaccinated persons.
Some areas of the world, particularly Africa and Central Asia, have low rates of vaccination. The requirement for booster doses to maintain durable immunity and protect against variant strains underscores the importance of access to efficacious vaccines as early as possible in the face of a novel zoonotic pathogen with very high transmissibility and the ability to rapidly evolve.
The COVID-19 pandemic has illustrated the ability of technology, the biopharmaceutical industry, governments and regulatory agencies to rapidly develop and approve new vaccines. However, it also uncovered the need to do better in the face of the next threats to public health from emerging pathogens, with a challenge to vaccine and regulatory science to have new countermeasures ready within one hundred days of the emergence of a new threat.
Such threats could come from animal diseases transmissible to and between humans (zoonoses), or animal diseases that do not affect humans but threaten food security, economic stability, and the environment.
One Health approach to control and prevent future pandemics
What are the best options for controlling and preventing future pandemics through vaccination?
A One Health approach offers the most logical means of developing and delivering new vaccines. One Health ensures an "all of science" approach to vaccine development in which every case benefits from cooperative efforts of veterinary and medical scientists, knowledge of the complex ecosystems that give rise to disease emergence and spread, use of animal models to test vaccine safety and efficacy, and complementary expertise in the biology of families of viruses and microbes.
To illustrate, consider the virus family Coronaviridae which contains pure veterinary pathogens of major importance (e.g. Transmissible Gastroenteritis of swine, TGE), pathogens using domesticated animals as intermediary hosts to infect humans (e.g. camels in the case of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, MERS), as well as SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) which has mainly affected humans but apparently has spilled back into animals (mink, cats, deer).
There are many examples for other virus families where the coupling of animal and human health sciences has the potential to accelerate and improve the quality of vaccine development.
There are currently four types of methods being used to develop vaccines: Whole pathogen vaccines are the legacy approaches utilizing the entire infectious organisms. alive or in a weakened (attenuated) state; subunit vaccines use only pieces of organisms that are not infectious but generate a strong immunological response; viral vectored and nucleic acid vaccines (e.g. mRNA products) possess instructions to teach human cells to develop proteins that are recognized by immune cells as not belonging in the human body, causing them to be destroyed before causing tissue and other damage.
Attention is now leaning toward using animal viruses and viral vectors for developing human vaccines, illustrating the need for connecting medical and veterinary science.
The approved vaccine against Ebola virus disease uses an animal virus (vesicular stomatitis) as a vector. A recent article that lists the most common zoonotic diseases and methods for control can be accessed here for those interested in more detail.
In 2013 a comprehensive article by Dr. Thomas Monath explored vaccines protecting against zoonotic diseases. The article describes the catastrophic global public health impact caused by zoonotic pathogens:
It is estimated that 56 different zoonotic diseases are responsible annually for 2.5 billion cases of human disease with 2.7 million deaths and substantial reductions in livestock production. Animals, including livestock and companion animals, also suffer illness and death following infection with many zoonotic infections, and livestock and poultry are subject to large-scale intentional destruction as a means of preventing human infections, resulting in huge economic losses.
It continues in advocating a One Health approach:
The purpose of this review is to stimulate the science and policy communities to seek innovative ways to interdict zoonotic diseases by integrating human and veterinary medicine and vaccine development, and by creating new streams of funding aimed at the intersection of human and animal health.
In a comprehensive review article on vaccines protecting against infectious zoonotic agents, three epidemiological frameworks are described relating to the control of zoonotic diseases via various vaccine-based interventions for diseases like West Nile Virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, Japanese Encephalitis, rabies, anthrax, and brucellosis.
For example, one framework comprises diseases in which wildlife transmit diseases to humans and domestic/wild animals. For this group, it may be feasible to prevent disease with vaccines for wildlife (as successfully done in the case of rabies, and in late-stage development for Lyme disease). In another framework, vaccines are developed to protect humans only. Vaccines for domesticated animals may prevent disease in these species but also prevent human infections where domesticated animals are the source of human infections (e.g. Rift Valley fever, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, or Hendra virus disease).
A unique oral vaccine that helps prevent the spread of the infectious agent that causes plague in Prairie Dog colonies may serve to reduce the likelihood of human exposure. This is similar to using oral rabies vaccination programs in wildlife to prevent infection via bites or scratches in domestic dogs and cats, thereby reducing possible exposure to human owners.
The Institute for International Cooperation in Animal Biologics at Iowa State University is a recognized collaborating center for the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE). The institute authored a seminal article that summarizes the many contributions of veterinary vaccinology to animal and human health:
Veterinary vaccines are important for animal health, animal welfare, food production, and public health. They are a cost-effective method to prevent animal disease, enhance the efficiency of food production, and reduce or prevent the transmission of zoonotic and foodborne infections to people…It would be impossible to produce enough animal protein to feed the nearly 7 billion people on earth without vaccines to prevent epizootics in food-producing animals. Without companion animal vaccines (especially rabies vaccine), many people would not keep a pet in the household and would not experience the satisfaction (author note– not to mention the significant human health benefits) of the human-animal bond. Zoonotic diseases such as brucellosis and leptospirosis would be much more prevalent without effective vaccines.
The review article authors further underscore the importance of controlling emerging and exotic animal diseases to protect human and animal health.
Increasing global travel of animals and humans is adding to the risk of pathogen transfer among species. Backyard food production (e.g., poultry, sheep, goats) is increasing, posing additional problems for disease control.
Veterinary vaccines help to reduce the utilization of antibiotics in both animals and humans, thereby mitigating risks for antibiotic resistance. Food safety vaccines such as those for E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella enteritidis in chickens help lessen the shedding of organisms that taint products for human consumption and lessen the potential for human illness and death.
Most animal-targeted vaccines are developed to prevent infectious diseases to either improve the growth and production of food animals or to bolster the health and welfare of companion animals.
Some vaccines protect humans against acquiring dangerous zoonotic diseases from infected animals (e.g., leptospirosis). Notably, veterinary vaccines are more rapidly developed and licensed than human vaccines and at a fraction of the cost. Yet another reason to pursue a One Health approach.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has long recognized the need for licensed vaccines to protect animals against diseases that are not endemic, not generally seen in the U.S. such as Foot & Mouth Disease (FMD) or Avian Influenza.
These diseases are known as Foreign Animal Diseases (FADs). A single outbreak of FMD in the central US would quickly cause some $200 billion in economic losses and food insecurity related to the depopulation of infected animals.
The February 2022 outbreak of Avian Influenza (H5N1 Eurasian Strain Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) in the US – and it is currently spreading around the world – has already led to the depopulation in America of over 30 million commercial and backyard birds in twenty-nine States with one human case reported.
If these viruses evolve (mutate) to increase transmissibility, enable person-to-person transmission, or increase mortality, the next dangerous pandemic could be set in motion. This is why the development and stockpiling of efficacious vaccines against FADs must be a high priority.
Promising future vaccines
With funding from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Public Health Vaccines and its partner Crozet BioPharma, there has been the development of a promising vaccine against Nipah virus (NiV), which causes severe respiratory and central nervous system illness in humans with fatality rates from 40-75% (far higher than COVID-19).
Nipah was first reported in humans in Malaysia in 1999. Epidemiological investigations have revealed that human patients had a history of contact with bats, bat urine, or pigs, but person-to-person transmission also occurs.
The World Health Organization and CEPI have identified the Nipa Virus as a dangerous emerging pathogen that can cause outbreaks in areas with few medical response assets. Multiple Nipah vaccines are in development using a variety of platforms that illustrate the One Health approach: these include various animal virus vectors (VSV), poxviruses (vaccinia, canarypox), Newcastle disease virus, and rabies (ERA strain). Two vaccines are currently in clinical trials.
Some other zoonotic pathogens of concern for which vaccines are being developed are Lyme Disease, Hendra virus, Lassa virus, and Valley Fever (coccidioidomycosis).
A fascinating and innovative technology being used mostly in veterinary vaccines is known as DIVA (Differentiation of Infected and Vaccinated Animals). DIVA-enabled vaccines are becoming important tools in disease monitoring and control. A simple ELISA test can identify if an animal is infected or vaccinated. This is important for the import/export of animals. DIVA is utilized in various FMD, Classical Swine Fever, and Pseudorabies vaccines.
Another example of an area for further research and development are Universal Coronavirus Vaccines described in the New England Journal of Medicine as follows:
The past 20 years have witnessed four fatal coronavirus outbreaks… Scientific evidence and ecologic reality suggest that coronaviruses will emerge again in the future, potentially posing an existential threat.
We need a research approach that can characterize the global "coronavirus universe" in multiple species, characterize the natural history and pathogenesis of coronavirus in laboratory animals and in humans, and apply this information in developing broadly protective "universal" vaccines (protecting against all beta coronaviruses, and ideally all coronaviruses).
These words heartily suggest that to protect animals and humans from zoonotic pathogens, and for any attempt to prevent the next pandemic to be successful, we must assemble special teams of expert, energetic allied medical professionals and scientists, working together in the spirit of One Health.
As noted above, the WHO Expert Panel (OHHLEP) definition of One Health has been endorsed by WHO, FAO, OIE and UNEP. There is a magic silver lining in the COVID-19 pandemic that is striving to bring the One Health philosophy to full fruition.

Q: Getting a specific word in a string I am new to java, i have a string
"rdl_mod_id:0123456789\n\nrdl_mod_name:Driving Test\n\nrdl_mod_type:PUBL\n\nrdl_mod_mode:Practice\n\nrdl_mod_date:2013-04-23"

What I want is to get the Driving Test word. The word is dynamically changes so what I want to happen is get the word between the rdl_mod_name: and the \n.

A: I would look into java regular expressions (regex). The String matches method uses a regex to determine if there's a pattern in a string. For what you are doing, I would probably use 'matches(rdl_mod_.*\n)'. The '.*' is a wildcard for strings, so in this context it means anything between rdl_mod and \n. I'm not sure if the matches method can process forward slashes (they signify special text characters), so you might have to replace them with either a different character or remove them altogether.

A:  Use java's substring() function with java indexof() function.

A: Try the following.. It will work in your case..
        String str = "rdl_mod_id:0123456789\n\nrdl_mod_name:Driving Test\n\nrdl_mod_type:PUBL\n\nrdl_mod_mode:Practice\n\nrdl_mod_date:2013-04-23";
        Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("rdl_mod_name:(.*?)\n");
        Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(str);
        while (matcher.find()) {
            System.out.println(matcher.group(1));
        }

Also you can make use of regex,matcher,pattern to get your desired result..
The following links will also give you a fair idea:
Extract string between two strings in java
Java- Extract part of a string between two special characters
How to get a string between two characters?

A: Try this code :
String s = "rdl_mod_id:0123456789\n\nrdl_mod_name:Driving Test\n\nrdl_mod_type:PUBL\n\nrdl_mod_mode:Practice\n\nrdl_mod_date:2013-04-23";
String sArr[] = s.split("\n\n");
String[] sArr1 = sArr[1].split(":");
System.out.println("sArr1[1] : " + sArr1[1]);

The s.split("\n\n");will split the string on basis of \n\n.
The second split i.e. sArr[1].split(":"); will split the second element in array sArr on basis of : i.e split rdl_mod_name:Driving Test into  rdl_mod_name and Driving Test.
sArr1[1] is your desired result.

The start...Rotary Club Amigos de Milwaukee
Rotary International (RI) is an exemplary worldwide organization that envelopes 1.2 million members in more than 200 countries. Its volunteer membership consists of humanitarian minded professionals whose vision is to provide passionate results to community and world issues. Rotary has a strong written policy for diversity, but in most of the United States (including Wisconsin) clubs; ethnic and racial minorities are underrepresented.
The Rotary clubs in the U.S. are known worldwide for their generosity and kindness. Every year these clubs provide millions of dollars and countless volunteer hours in projects throughout the globe, and many in Latin America and Africa. Some contributing factors to the diversity disparity in the U.S. clubs include the geographic meeting locations and exposure to minority professionals.
In 1998, our Past District Governor (PDG) Angela Rester was on the Rotary International (RI) membership committee. There she took part in a resolution to gain interest for ethnic focused clubs to increase diversity.
In 2008, in Illinois, a Korean focused Rotary club was chartered and Rotary International President Kim Lee was at hand for the ceremony. He said, "What matters in Rotary is not what language we speak, or where we come from…What matters in Rotary is fellowship, friendship, and building bridges of goodwill."
Also in 2008, PDG Angela Rester with the help of fellow Rotarians DG Tammie Koop, Brian Monroe, and Alicia Nickols; held a couple of influential informative meetings with Latino professionals. In early 2009, a pre-chartered club was formed with about a dozen of individuals, many of whom became charter members. On June 30th 2009, the Rotary Club Amigos de Milwaukee became the first ethnic focused club chartered in Wisconsin by Rotary International.
The name was chosen because it conveys "friends from Milwaukee" with a dash of Latino flavor. Most Rotary clubs are first and foremost community focused. We are based in the heart of a Latino community. While emphasis is given to Latino issues, the broader focus is on the humanitarian service, goodwill, and peace of all peoples.
Milwaukee has a wealth of professional individuals (Latino or not) who have a fondness for the Hispanic culture and a passion to help all people in any way. Our exceptional charter membership reflects this reality; it's sprinkled with descendants from the continents of Europe and Africa. The balance are from the Americas and they can be traced back to at least eight different Latino countries.
With the vision of Rotary at hand, our membership has the dedication to make a profound difference in many lives. By exposing more minority professionals to Rotary, we not only foresee greater dynamic ideas for our club; but a greater capacity for our district - and beyond. At the Jan 10th 2009 meeting many of us discovered a visionary pebble, and at the Sep 23rd Charter Night, we celebrated the ripple.
These are some of the noteworthy dates and achievements in 2009:
Jan 10th First meeting in 2009 of interested members at the Wisconsin Club in downtown Milwaukee.
Jan 21st Second meeting at the Skylight Theater in the Third Ward of Milwaukee.
Jan 28th Third meeting at the Quimera Boricua Restaurant in the near Southside of Milwaukee.
Feb 17th The name of "Rotary Club Amigos de Milwaukee" adopted. Daisy Cubias - the pivotal voice.
Mar 17th Five club officers were voted in. Rafael Acevedo - President, Jaime Alvarado - President Elect, Patricia Kraker - Vice Pres, Dorothy Krupa - Treasurer, Reggie Frias - Secretary, Lupe Duenas - Sergeant at Arms
Apr 30th The twenty member charter threshold was reached in order to become chartered.
Jun 30thth The club was officially chartered with 34 members! A group photo posted at rotaryamigos.org
Sep 23rd A grand Charter Celebration evening at the Historic Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee.
Some other achievements in 2009:
Dynamic speakers including Mayor Barrett and Police Chief Flynn (Maria Flores lead the program committee), six impressive service volunteer events (Cecilia Rebuffo-Sheer lead the service projects committee), a fantastic salsa social event in July, club members visited foreign clubs and represented the club, and good participation in district functions.
We saved a huge acknowledgement last, our membership committee chair, the late Carl Komassa (1945-2010). He was a grand inspiration and a pinnacle humanitarian who will never be forgotten.

Rodrigo adapting to Marcelo Bielsa's 'beautiful' style of football at Leeds
Leeds forward Rodrigo admitted he was still adjusting to Marcelo Bielsa's "beautiful football" after scoring the equaliser against Manchester City.
Rodrigo, signed from Valencia for a club-record £27million in August, stepped off the bench to turn home his first goal for Leeds after Raheem Sterling had given City a half-time lead.
Bielsa's side produced another exhilarating display having spent the first half-hour chasing shadows, going toe-to-toe with the visitors in another Premier League thriller.
"We have a very characteristic way of playing, which has been done for a long time and of course I need time to adapt myself to this style of football," the Spain international told Leeds' official website.
"But I think the team is very compact, plays very well, tries to attack and score goals and plays beautiful football.
"We've started very well in the Premier League, in the first game against Liverpool unfortunately we didn't win, but we played a great game also and I think this is the way."
A fully-deserved point against Pep Guardiola's title-chasers lifted Leeds up to fifth place before Sunday's top-flight fixtures.
"Leeds have waited a long time to be in the best league in the world and I think we have shown we are prepared for this," Rodrigo added.
"I feel of course very happy for the goal and the result, it is a great result for us.
"We had chances to win the game, of course they had the same also, but we are very happy with the performance, keeping good results after the last two wins and now a great result against a great team."
Guardiola's side have now dropped four points in their first three matches and are eight points adrift of early pace-setters Everton at the top of the table.
City's new signing from Benfica, Ruben Dias, made an impressive first appearance in central defence, just two days after his £62m deal had been completed.
Dias was just inches away from heading a debut goal during City's dominant early spell and had mixed feelings after the match.
"Very happy for my debut," he told City's official website. "But obviously not happy at all with the result. We wanted to win this match so badly.
"But we have to keep improving and working on that victorious mentality. First game and I am really happy with my debut."
Guardiola described Dias' display as "outstanding" after the centre-half had taken part in one training session.
The Portugal defender added: "Obviously it's just one match, but the intensity, the quality of the pitch – it's the top league. That is what I was looking for.
"It has all happened so fast, it's not easy but I'm trying to settle as fast as I can and obviously to play this game was a really good step and I hope I can help the team."

Happy Birthday Roman Abramovich, The Man Who Transformed Chelsea.
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich celebrates his 51st birthday today as the Blues prepare for tomorrow's Carabao Cup clash with Everton.
In his 14 years at the club, Chelsea fans have enjoyed unprecedented success and seen their club transform into one of the biggest in the world.
Last season saw the Blues reach the summit once more as
Antonio Conte's men claimed another Premier League title.
Here we take a look at the man who came from nowhere to shock the world and change football forever.
"He'll get bored" they said. "He'll leave after a couple of seasons" they said. And yet Roman Abramovich, Chelsea's owner, is still here, having presided over another trophy-winning season at the club.
Since Roman Abramovich purchased Chelsea in July 2003 – to both the consternation and delight of Chelsea supporters who were faced with the very real prospect of their club going in to financial meltdown – the club have won five Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, a Champions League and a Europa League.
Many opposition supporters unfairly suggest that Abramovich's arrival marked the beginning of Chelsea's history, in fact the club had won the League title once in 1955, FA Cups in 1970, 1997 and 2000, the League Cup in 1965 and 1998, the European Cup Winners Cup in 1971 and 1998 and the European Super Cup in 1998. The first of those European trophies being won before that great historical club, Liverpool, had won a European trophy.
That said, one cannot deny the seismic impact that Roman Abramovich has had not just on Chelsea and their ever bulging trophy cabinet, but football in England as a whole.
At a time when we can reflect on the staggering amount of trophies won in the Roman era and when we cast a look in the direction of rivals whose owners have frankly ruined their clubs, I wonder whether we give Roman Abramovich the praise he deserves.
Much of this season's narrative has been taken up with the rancour between Arsenal supporters and Arsene Wenger . While one can understand Arsenal supporters' frustration with Wenger's inability to deliver the Premier League title recently or the Champions League, I am amazed that their opprobrium has not been directed at the owners.
Arsenal's majority shareholder is American sports mogul Stan Kroenke , a man who owns a string of what the Americans like to call 'sports franchises'.
His interest in Arsenal appears to be purely financial and one can surmise that he has been perfectly happy that Wenger perennially delivers a healthy profit by finishing fourth in the league and in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Home Technology Is YouTube's "Watch Later" Button Missing For You? Here's A Workaround
Is YouTube's "Watch Later" Button Missing For You? Here's A Workaround
TymonOziemblewski / Pixabay
With all its features, YouTube has become an indispensable part many people's lives now. It boasts many useful features, and one such feature is Watch Later, which allows users to save a video to watch later. However, over the past few days, YouTube's "Watch Later" button has been acting buggy, and many users are saying that it is missing.
YouTube's "Watch Later" button missing
Users have taken to product forums and social platforms such as Reddit and Twitter to complain about the issue.
"I am trying to save a video in my feed to watch later but the 'button' is not there. I have done this many times before with no problem. This problem has only occurred today," one YouTube user said.
Users say they have tried several tricks, but nothing seems to be working. One user said he tried logging in and out and making space by deleting some videos, but nothing solved the issue.
Some users even thought YouTube permanently removed the "Watch later" button. However, this is certainly not the case. One Google employee recently admitted to the issue and assured users that the company is working on a fix.
"We didn't remove the watch later icon / button! This is related to a technical issue and we're currently working to fix it," the YouTube team said in a Reddit post.
In another post, the YouTube team member suggested a workaround until the issue is fixed, reports PiunikaWeb. Users can still access the "Watch Later" button by clicking on the three-dot menu next to the video title.
"As a workaround until the issue is resolved, you can click on the three dot menu on the right of the video title and add to watch later. If you're not seeing video previews, you can go to 'watch' instead of preview," a member of the YouTube team said.
It's good that YouTube acknowledged the issue and offered a workaround on all platforms where users reported the complaint. Hopefully the video-sharing platform will resolve the issue soon.
YouTube's "Watch Later" button is a clock-like icon that becomes visible when you hover over the video thumbnail. Clicking or tapping the "Watch Later" icon adds the video to your playlist so you can watch it later.
Issue with YouTube Analytics
YouTube also recently acknowledged another issue with its platform. However, this issue is not on the consumer side; rather, it is troubling content creators. The issue is with the Analytics feature, which provides content creators details about their channel's performance, traffic, demographic reports and more.
Other than this data, the Analytics tool also gives estimated earnings and their sources. However, over the past few days, content creators have been complaining that the estimated earnings tool is delaying their estimated revenue instead, notes tech site PiunikaWeb. Affected users have taken to product forums and other social platforms to complain about the issue.
"Revenue update in YouTube analytics delayed for already 3 days. Please, fix this problem soon," one user said.
In some cases, the delay is four days, while in a few cases, the delay is five days. Some users were also concerned about whether the delay could result in them losing earnings. One user assured others that the same issue occurred in the past, but their earnings were not lost.
"The important thing is that it's happening to many people. I would only be concerned if it we're just me that was experiencing the issue," the user said.
Google was also quick to acknowledge the problem earlier this week.
"On May 1, at approximately 5pm PST, a bug caused Google Ads reporting for April 30 and May 1 (Pacific Time) to be incorrect. This bug impacts reports in all Google Ads interfaces, including any report data downloaded via the AdWords API, Google Ads API and Google Ads Scripts," the search giant said.
Further, the company assured affected users that it is working on a fix.
Google AdSense was hit by a worldwide outage in April which affected page views, estimated earnings and other metrics. The bug ensured that metrics such as impressions, clicks, earnings and page views were not updated in the AdSense Dashboard. The AdSense glitch may have affected YouTube Analytics' feature, resulting in a delay in estimated earnings for content creators.

* The brand has become a byword in Visayas and Mindanao, especially for its health benefits.

The Company: Ginebra San Miguel, Inc. Ginebra San Miguel, Inc. r commonly known as GSMI, grew out of a family-owned Spanish era distillery which, in 1834, introduced what was to become the company's flagship brand and the largest selling, first ever Philippine gin in the world – Ginebra San Miguel. GSMI has since evolved from being a solely gin-driven business into a progressive and dynamic organization whose strength lies in the proud heritage of its flagship product, its extensive experience in alcohol production and distribution, and the never-say-die spirit of its workforce. The company continues to adopt to the ever-changing preferences of its arkets, providing more value-for-money options through its growing line of world-class hard liquor and healthy beverages. With the support of its parent company – San Miguel Corporation, Ginebra San Miguel, Inc. boldly looks to the future propelled by its vision of becoming a diversified beverage company in the Asian region. Being a majority-owned subsidiary of San Miguel Corporation (the "SMC"), the Company has adopted a Manual on Corporate Governance (the "Manual") closely patterned after that of its parent company.

Industry Analysis Alcohol Industry in the Philippines Manufacturing * Manufacturing of beer and liquors is one of the most profitable industries in the Philippines.
Alcohol is projected as part of the day-to-day lives as portrayed in soap operas, basketball leagues, comedy shows and music video channels. Total recorded per capita consumption of Filipinos is 3. 5 liters of pure alcohol for those of pure alcohol for those 15 years and above and increases by 10% every year (Filipinos only third to Thailand and Japan Figures for moderate and heavy drinkers among the young and women from 2001-2004 are found to be increasing, still with more males at 6. 6% and women slowly catching up at 3. 4% * 60% of Filipino youth ages 13 years and above have taken or are taking alcoholic beverages—79% males and 21% females. * 38. 9% of Filipinos are occasional alcohol drinkers, * 11. 1% are regular drinkers (13% males and 5. 9% females) * 4. 8% are heavy drinkers (6. 6% males and 1. % females) Drinking is still more acceptable among young males, and those likely to drink are those who are not living with their parents, whose parents approve of drinking, who frequently attend social gatherings or parties, bars and discos and those who do not normally take part in any sport activity. Beer Festivals For the past two decades, October has been designated as beer-month where beer festivals are celebrated in major cities of the country with famous rock bands. To manifest its extreme and growing popularity among the Filipino youths, last year's beer festival ran for 3months—from September to November.
Beer festivals are largely attended by the young—college students, young professionals, both sexes. Minimal police records on both petty crimes and traffic police records on both petty crimes and traffic violations are found during this time and in these areas. Alcohol Drinking Patterns Among Filipinos Filipinos drink to socialize (45. 5%), to remove stress and burden (23. 8%), or just be happy and gain pleasure (17. 5%).
