Cayman Island Green and Loggerhead Sea Turtle Populations RecoveringValerie Varnuska
Westbury, New York area resident Valerie Varnuska enjoys diverse personal interests, including cooking and performing arts. Valerie Varnuska spends time walking outdoors and learning about nature.
ScienceDaily recently reported on a nature-related research study completed by the Cayman Islands Department of Environment and the University of Exeter on sea turtle populations in the Cayman Islands. The study, which took place from 1998 to 2019, showed that loggerhead and green turtle populations, which were nearing extinction at the start of the research initiative, are now growing.
The number of loggerhead and green turtles on the islands has increased due to captive breeding programs and strategies that help protect the turtles. For example, illegal turtle hunting was reduced due to conservation officers patrolling nesting beaches, and restrictions were implemented to prevent the activities of a turtle fishery.
Loggerhead and green turtle populations are still lower than normal compared to historical records indicating the number of animals in the islands. Prior to the early 1800s, the Cayman Islands were home to the largest number of nesting sea turtles in the world.

Jewish environmental education is a natural extension of any scout, religious school, youth group or adult outdoor activity. Many basic concepts of ecology can be found in the T’NaCh and other Jewish religious writings. The use of Jewish texts and stories adds a new dimension to the generic hike
Jewish environmental education inspires participants to learn by listening, experimenting, discussing, playing, and doing! Jewish Environmental Education teaches Jewish texts and customs that promote an understanding of human interaction with nature and advances understanding of ecology and Judaism together.

The area of investigation for this project will only focus on the representational image of form, colour and shape of the native orchids I have chosen to focus on rather than replicating its exact image. I intend to create a story through my design which incorporates change. These will be represented on the life cycle of the orchids. The first costume design will be created as life-like then will slowly change, leaving stylized form and shape then losing its life. There is an inbuilt message of hope on this concept –this will be represented with a new growth of an orchid. Its materiality will manifest through aesthetic and imaginative interpretation of the costumes where elements of colours, form and shape inspired by the Spider, Helmet and Bearded orchid will be based upon. This concept is fuelled by my ongoing involvement with environmental groups and by creating these designs will significantly heightened community awareness that these species are threatened by climate change, loss of habitat and human impacts.
Photographing water droplets really fascinates me, as I get closer to my subject, the identity of its droplets form into different iedntity. An identity of beauty and its fragility.

Southern Coastline of Terra Australis, Kangaroo IslandJelina Haines
Kangaroo Island is renowned for its impressive and panoramic landscape and its unique diversity of flora and fauna. The magnificent South Coast is buffeted by winds from the Southern Ocean that have produced astonishing rock formations which shown here taken during my trip.
Capturing an image of tree bark or water droplets on a leaf and tiny plants in great details is a great challenge. Being close to the subject is quite overwhelming and rewarding process because as a photographer I am not just taking these images for pleasure but my purpose is to raise environmental awareness .
'G A I A' is a free - form sculpture, created by recycle old computers cables. This sculpture represents continuum innovative evolution of our technology, but the more we create new technology, 'GAIA' become more exhausted and slowly the amniotic fluid that protect 'GAIA', cannot regenerate anymore.
The cultural basis for colour symbolism can be very powerful. Throughout the history colour play an important part of our ancestors.
Everyone of us has its own favourite colour. What’s yours?
My favourite colour are sky-blue because to me it represents the sky, peace and enlightenment, ochre represents the land, green represents the earth and pink.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
