The status of Monroe County ospreys is unknown (Knowledge Level 0 in the Florida Wildlife Legacy Initiative’s Data Gaps Goal, FWLI website), and its conservation status cannot be assessed without genetic analysis of the degree to which it has differentiated from its nearest relatives. The goal of the Species Action Plan is to determine the status and range of the population of osprey in Monroe County. Objectives are to identify the population taxonomy through genetic analysis, maintain a stable or increasing population trend for the osprey and to improve osprey potential habitat in Monroe County.

Omicron hospitalisation risk around one third of Delta, UK analysis shows
Reuters
LONDON, Dec 31 (Reuters) - The risk of hospitalisation with the Omicron variant of coronavirus is about one-third that of the Delta variant, according to British analysis of more than a million cases of both types in recent weeks.
Britain is experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases driven by the highly-transmissible Omicron variant, with record daily infections of 189,846 reported on Friday.
While hospital admissions have started to rise, the government has said it believes the new variant is milder than the Delta variant.
The number of patients needing mechanical ventilation beds has also remained steady through December, unlike previous peaks in the pandemic.
The analysis was published by the UK Health Security Agency, after it worked alongside Cambridge University MRC Biostatistics unit to analyse 528,176 Omicron cases and 573,012 Delta cases.
It also found that vaccines can work well against Omicron.
"In this analysis, the risk of hospitalisation is lower for Omicron cases with symptomatic or asymptomatic infection after 2 and 3 doses of vaccine, with an 81% ... reduction in the risk of hospitalisation after 3 doses compared to unvaccinated Omicron cases," the UKHSA said.
Susan Hopkins, Chief Medical Adviser at UKHSA, said the analysis was in keeping with other encouraging signs on Omicron but said the health service could still struggle with such high transmission rates.
"It remains too early to draw any definitive conclusions on hospital severity, and the increased transmissibility of Omicron and the rising cases in the over 60s population in England means it remains highly likely that there will be significant pressure on the NHS in coming weeks," she said.
Friday's daily data update showed 12,395 patients in hospital in England with COVID-19, up from 11,542 on Thursday and continuing a steeply rising trend. However, the figure is well below a peak of more than 34,000 in January.

Experts, governors warn of U.S. Omicron 'blizzard' in weeks ahead
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. health experts on Thursday urged Americans to prepare for severe disruptions in coming weeks as the rising wave of COVID-19 cases led by the Omicron variant threatened hospitals, schools and other sectors impacting their daily lives.
The warning came as the United States reached a record high in COVID-19 cases, while federal officials issued more travel warnings and reportedly prepared to authorize booster shots for 12 to 15-year-olds next week.
For the second day in a row, the United States had a record number of new reported cases based on the seven-day average, with more than 290,000 new infections reported each day, a Reuters tally showed.
At least 18 states and Puerto Rico have set pandemic records for new cases, according to the tally. Maryland, Ohio and Washington, D.C., also saw record hospitalizations as overall U.S. COVID-19 hospitalizations rose 27%.
The surge comes amid increased holiday travel, with New Year's celebrations still to come, and as schools grapple with students' return to classrooms following winter breaks.
"We are going to see the number of cases in this country rise so dramatically, we are going to have a hard time keeping everyday life operating," Dr. Michael Osterholm, an infectious disease expert at the University of Minnesota, told MSNBC.
"The next month is going to be a viral blizzard," he said. "All of society is going to be pressured by this."
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease official, on Wednesday said cases will likely rise throughout January, a warning echoed by the governor of Louisiana, where hospitalizations have more than tripled in the past two weeks.
"We are still at the very beginning of this current surge," John Bel Edwards told a news conference on Thursday. "January is going to be very, very challenging."
U.S. health officials have said early data show Omicron appears less severe but have continued to push vaccinations, masks and physical distancing. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has also issued new guidelines shortening isolation and quarantine periods, which have been criticized by some disease experts www.reuters.com/world/us/no-tests-no-problem-experts-ques... and health care workers.
U.S. health regulators plan to approve a third vaccine dose for 12 to 15-year-olds next week, according to media reports. Boosters are already approved for those 16 and older.
With testing shortages and breakthrough cases, experts warn the surge would stress hospitals and businesses, although some state and city leaders said on Thursday they would keep schools open for children returning from winter break next week.
"We are committed in Arkansas to in-class instruction," Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson said. "It’s so important to our future, to our students, to their mental health."
Rising hospitalizations as healthcare workers are sidelined with their own COVID-19 infections is also concerning, as are fewer effective therapeutics, Dr. Peter Hotez, an infectious disease expert at Baylor College of Medicine, told CNN.
A rise in in hospitalization of children across the United States has also fueled concerns.
Already, 825,663 people have died in the United States from COVID-19 since early 2020, data showed, with the latest wave of hospitalizations driven by those not vaccinated.
President Joe Biden this month announced new plans to combat Omicron, but some experts have criticized the measures as arriving too late.
'HUNKER DOWN'
Cruise operators took a hit on Thursday after the CDC warned people to avoid cruises regardless of their vaccination status due to onboard outbreaks, a potential drag on an economy that otherwise appears to be holding up.
While airline travel has been widely disrupted, holiday sales were strong, new claims for state unemployment benefits fell last week to their lowest level of the pandemic, and U.S. stocks hit record highs on Thursday.
How schools handle the surge is also key, especially for working parents. U.S. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona told MSNBC that schools should stay open and that federal funds were available for staffing and testing to help make that happen.
"We can't shut down our city again," New York City Mayor-elect Eric Adams said while unveiling his plan on Thursday to fight COVID-19 while keeping the country's most populous city -- including its schools -- open for business.
Conditions should improve after January, as testing shortages ease and recently-approved medicines become more widely available, experts said.
"We do have light at the end of the tunnel," said University of Minnesota's Osterholm. "But for right now, you're going to have to hunker down."
In Arkansas, which on Thursday reported a record high of 4,978 new cases, Hutchinson said the state would make 1.5 million at-home tests available to residents, a move he hoped would free up health care workers to staff hospitals.
West Virginia Governor Jim Justice urged the relatively high proportion of unvaccinated people in his state to get inoculated but said he was against mandates.
If the situation worsens "and a bunch more people die, you'll have a run on the bank as far as people running to get vaccinated or to get their booster shots," Justice said.
This is an image of a derelict house with large street art graffiti on the front which is an elderly person with their head in their hands. In the foreground, there is the house itself with the graffiti image over the middle window. In the background, there are multiple tall skyscraper offices/flats that are completely identical. The focal point is definitely the house as it is dominating the image therefore catching your eye. I think the colours and tones of this image are intended to reflect the mood as they are very dull and lifeless.
As this is a digital, colour image and by looking at the new buildings in the background a relatively modern photograph, I would expect this image to have been taken on a digital/DSLR camera as it is well-focused. I definitely think the photographer used a tripod due to the angle of the image which is rather abstract and may have been difficult to shoot free hand. I think JR has used good depth of field in this image which again shows how the main focus is on the house in the foreground.
The atmosphere created in this photo is very mundane due to the dull colours and content of the image. I think the photographer had this intention to make me feel this way as I think the image has a negative meaning to make you feel uncomfortable or to make you think about the reality of the topic. The mood of this image definitely helps the photographer portray the meaning as it has many representations in the image eg. The derelict house to the skyscrapers.
I think the image is showing how society has become much more capitalized due to the vast amount of new skyscraper buildings that are being produced and sold at extortionate prices. This is portrayed through the angle of the camera showing the traditional but decrepit house with the modern building looming over it in the blurred background. I think the meaning of the graffiti is to highlight how elderly people that have experienced the previous generations are very ashamed of us as we as a whole, support the idea of capitalizing the world. I think JR definitely had these intentions as they wanted to address the sometimes ignored topic and show how our society has conformed to revolutionizing our way of living instead of actually stopping and enjoying life itself.
This image has been taken by JR who is a photographer and graffiti artist. JR's work combines art and action and deals with commitment, freedom, identity and limits. This image was taken around 2011 in France. I think my view on the meaning of this image definitely coincides with the photographer as JR is known for using photography to address social issues in the world at the time which for this image would be the capitalist movement. This image was presented at an exhibition in Paris along with other images from the ‘Inside Out’ series which I think helped convey the message as there were more images to push the meaning forward.
I am studying this image in my project for ‘Discovery and Transformation’ as it links with my theme idea of discovering locations and looking more in depth about what is around you and at how one cultured area can have a vast different to another place and culture in this case, London and France. This image has helped me create new ideas for my project as it has made me think about incorporating social issues in the place I’m shooting into my images to help convey a stronger message.

Day one hundred seventy-four/365. I love academia. I feel fulfilled when I'm learning and I love to teach others.
But, I also realize that critical thinking has its limits. Sometimes, we run the danger of "paralysis by analysis."
I just read an article about the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Some amazingly gifted people are students there.
But, the school has a requirement that's a special challenge for some of their most intelligent students. They require their graduates to know how to swim.
The author said that about half of the students jump in the water and get the swimming requirement out of the way early in their college career. Another percentage procrastinate. Some are afraid of the water. And when trying to learn to swim, people who are so gifted at math and engineering sometimes ask questions. At what angle should their arms enter the water? How far does one need to turn the head to get a breath without getting water in one's mouth?
Life guards find it difficult to convince some students to get in the water and just try it.
What things do we people of non-MIT material tend to over-think? What decisions are committees handling that could be completed more quickly and effectively by people who are willing to jump in the water and just try?

Thesis Data Analysis is not just the act of analyzing data with the help of statistical tools and application of a few tests. It is the complete process, starting with data collection, to data cleaning and arrangement. It ends with the interpretation of the results of the tests and simplification of the same for presentation.
After the particle analysis is conducted, Gihan Kamel checks the data at the infrared beamline lab. SESAME International Research Centre. Allan Area, Salt City, Jordan. April 2017
The SESAME (Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) Centre, is a “third-generation” synchrotron light source in Allan, Jordan, near Amman. The synchrotron facility is the Middle East’s first major international research centre for science applications. It is set for inauguration on 16 May 2017.
The Centre will focus on fostering innovative scientific and technological research in subjects ranging from biology, archaeology and medical sciences through basic properties of materials science, physics, chemistry, and life sciences.
The IAEA provides significant support to the Sesame project in training and sharing expertise, as well as facilitating the networking of SESAME staff with other global research facilities, thus enabling possibilities for scientific exchanges.

After the analysis of the amends (ratings, ordering and classification) provided by Greenpeace on our first schematic, our team was then able to understand which importance each information should have had in the overall economy of the visualization.
So we started an interpretation phase which led to an other version of the previous schematic.
This is that version, which is quite the final structure of the visualization (except for the geographical references which later on we were asked to remove).
