The survey found that:
- Most Seattleites had visited the Woodland Park Zoo at some point, but visits were not recent or frequent. Nearly all respondents saw the elephant exhibit during past visits.
- Seattleites learned about elephant poaching from a variety of sources like news, school, articles rather than the zoo.
- Over 60% of Seattleites support retiring the zoo's three elephants to a sanctuary, with support higher among those under 45. Less than 10% do not support retirement.
- Retiring the elephants would have no real impact on whether Seattleites visit the zoo in the future.
Charges costs cost effectiveness - Adam SchickedanzAdam.Schickedanz
The document discusses health care costs and cost-effectiveness in the United States. It notes that Americans spend over $3 trillion per year on health care, or around 18% of GDP. Children's health care costs $2,100 per child annually on average. A small percentage of children (15%) account for a large portion (60%) of total pediatric health care costs due to chronic and complex conditions. Proper care coordination can help reduce costs for these high-need, high-cost patients. Cost-effectiveness analysis uses metrics like incremental cost-effectiveness ratios and quality-adjusted life years to compare the costs and benefits of different health care interventions.
The Hero's Journey in Barcelone. Demo guide 30 october 2013Peter de Kuster
This travel guide provides advice on self-promotion for creative professionals. It acknowledges that while creative people want to focus on creating, self-promotion is necessary for success but also difficult. The guide aims to make promotion feel more natural and right-brained by providing solution-oriented, fun examples from creative heroes in Barcelona about clever, offbeat, and low-cost promotional strategies and tactics. Creative people must accept that their field is also a business where they are the product and they have two jobs - creation and marketing. Learning to promote themselves effectively, without seeing it as a waste of time or beneath them, is what separates successful from struggling creative professionals.

Native Americans Of The Woodlands For The Websitetcoviello
The Native Americans of the Eastern Woodlands lived in the Northeastern United States for over 10,000 years. They lived in both longhouses and wigwams. Longhouses were large rectangular buildings made of wooden poles and bark that could house over 30 families, while wigwams were for 2 families and were constructed by digging holes along a traced outline on the ground. The people wore different clothing and footwear depending on the season, making clothes from materials like deer buckskin, grasses, and furs. They hunted deer, rabbits, and fox and gathered plants, berries, fruits, vegetables, fish, and corn to eat. Women took care of crops and children while men were away hunting. Villages were protected
The document discusses research objectives, methodology, and findings from a survey conducted about donations to the Cincinnati Zoo. The objectives were to analyze profiles of members/visitors, identify causes/motivations/barriers to donating, and understand the visitation process. An online survey with open and multiple-choice questions was fielded to over 58,000 emails. Key findings include:
- 85% of respondents correctly identified the zoo as non-profit, so non-profit status is not a barrier to donation.
- Top reasons for donating are love of animals/zoo and seeing it as a community resource, while not being able to financially donate is the top reason for not donating.

Power to the People: Nature and science benefit when people are engaged
Science is a special way of knowing. But it should not be limited to a professional class of highly educated and skilled people. The earliest naturalists were ordinary people interested in the workings of the world around them. They noticed and recorded abundance patterns of wild forms and noted changes in their status over time. But as the quest for understanding underlying mechanisms and patterns of causation grew and required the use of sophisticated equipment or mathematical modelling, everyday people interested in nature became divorced from a sophisticated science bent on identifying underlying rules. Ironically, today's sophisticated and accessible technological gadgets - from computers to cameras to drones and more - can become the tools that reconnect people with the natural world. Crowdsourcing the analysis of data has helped scientists find patterns that have eluded the cleverest of computer algorithms. Engaging the public via the web enhances people’s self worth and continues to be a great way for arm-chair naturalists to help scientists solve some thorny problems. Swarms of people armed with smartphones scour landscapes snapping pictures of buds bursting or butterflies alighting to help scientists chronicle plant and animal dynamics over spatial and temporal scales unimaginable in the past. While all these activities connect people with the environment and create new scientific knowledge, they are only a beginning. People should and can do much more. In my talk I will champion the notion that truly transforming people to heed the ‘Call of the Wild' and support science as a special way of knowing requires deepening partnerships between professional and amateur researchers. Mentoring volunteers will give them an appreciation of the important issues, the confidence to ask questions, the insights to frame problems and environmental voices to demand action. And when the voices become synchronized they will be hard to ignore, thus generating evidence-based environmental policy and fostering strong and enduring science-society relationships.
The document discusses research conducted for a client project on engaging youth audiences in wildlife conservation. Surveys found that most current Yorkshire Wildlife Trust audiences are older, retired individuals. Additional surveys targeted at children ages 4-11 found that many already enjoy nature but interest declines after primary school. The document recommends the project focus on showing younger audiences, especially primary-aged children, how they too can be interested in and help conserve nature.
The Million Cat Challenge: Diving deeper with Removing Barriers and Return t...Kate Hurley
This lecture was presented by Dr. Kate F. Hurley at the Midwest Veterinarian Conference in February, 2016.
The Million Cat Challenge is a five year, shelter-based campaign to save one million cats from euthanasia by standardizing five initiatives in North American shelters. This presentation is focused on Removing Barriers and Return to Field, two initiatives of the Million Cat Challenge. This presentation assumes some familiarity with the topic. If you'd like to learn more, the slide deck titled The Million Cat Challenge will provide a nice starting point to understanding the Challenge and the five initiatives.
My team and I created a marketing campaign to rebrand Wild Things Sanctuary, an Ithaca area wildlife rehabilitation center. We created new ideas for how to spread awareness and raise funds for the nonprofit company in a detailed manner.
This document is the 2015 annual report from the New England Anti-Vivisection Society (NEAVS). It summarizes NEAVS's work in 2015, including presenting at conferences on animal testing regulations, outreach events to promote cruelty-free cosmetics, and campaigns opposing animal testing on chimpanzees. It highlights successes like the USDA and NIH changing policies on primates in research. The report also provides financial details, showing that most funding came from bequests and individual contributions, and that the majority of expenses went to program activities. It thanks donors for supporting NEAVS's mission to end animal testing and replace it with modern alternatives.
The Royal Institution aims to encourage public engagement with and understanding of science through various activities and partnerships. It measures the success of its public engagement using generic learning outcomes to understand the impact on knowledge, skills, attitudes, and enjoyment. The RI works with various partners to increase the reach of its programming and shares experiences online to further discussion around science engagement.
This document discusses feral cat overpopulation and Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) as a humane approach to population management. It notes that cats reproduce quickly and there are more free-roaming cats than owned cats. TNR stabilizes populations by spaying/neutering cats and vaccinating them before returning them to their colony. When done comprehensively, TNR reduces complaints, shelter intake and euthanasia. It outlines best practices for trapping, transporting and returning cats to minimize stress. Young kittens are recommended for rehoming rather than returning to colonies due to high mortality risks.
This document provides an overview of articles in the June 2015 issue of the Association of Zoos & Aquariums' publication "Connect". The main articles discuss water conservation efforts at zoos and aquariums, the use of full face mask scuba diving technology to engage visitors, the Chicago Zoological Society's social innovation initiative, AZA's conservation efforts around cetaceans, and a feature on the Vancouver Aquarium's environmental sustainability programs. Shorter sections cover news from various zoos and aquariums, conservation updates, research studies, and upcoming events.
The Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge suffers from lack of awareness and diversity among visitors. A strategic plan aims to increase awareness by 50% and attendance by 50,000 people in six months through various initiatives. These include generating media coverage, distributing pamphlets at schools, handing out flyers at malls, and having staff speak at universities to promote the Nature Center's educational programs and hiking trails. Tracking metrics like program signups will evaluate the plan's effectiveness at achieving the goal of raising awareness and revenue.
The Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge needs to increase awareness and revenue. A strategic communications plan targets families, outdoor enthusiasts, recreational enthusiasts, young adults, and school groups. Tactics include creating media coverage promoting the Nature Center as fun and inexpensive, an ad campaign embracing natural instincts, leveraging social media to appeal to younger audiences, and adding geocaching to attract more visitors. Success will be evaluated by increases in ticket and membership sales along with social media impressions and media coverage by August 2016.
The document provides information about an orientation for new hires at the Oakland Zoo, including:
- An overview of the various departments located in the administration offices, such as administration, accounting, IT, and marketing.
- Details on the zoo's mission to inspire conservation while providing a quality visitor experience.
- An explanation of the zoo's dedication to conservation through partnerships and over $1 million in contributions to conservation efforts worldwide.
- Information about safety protocols for COVID-19 and employee benefits.
The Aboriginal Friendship Centre of Calgary in partnership with Alberta Health Services, and the Tsuut'ina Nation, provided an exceptional program to offset the high risk of suicide among at-risk indigenous youth. This program provided new healthy, self-esteem building options, for at-risk youth from Calgary group homes and the community at large.
The document summarizes a trap-neuter-return (TNR) project on Tangier Island, Virginia to address the large community cat population. Best Friends Animal Society organized the project with support from the town mayor and residents. Over several days in early May, a team of volunteers from animal welfare groups set up a low-cost spay/neuter clinic and neutered 250 of the estimated 400-500 community cats on the island. The project required extensive planning and logistics due to the island's isolation 18 miles from the mainland and lack of veterinary facilities.

Stephanie Janeczko, DVM, MS, DABVP, currently serves as ASPCA’s Senior Director of Community Outreach Shelter Medicine Programs. She leads advances in medical programs for animal welfare groups nationwide and also serves as Vice President of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians. She served as Cornell University’s first shelter medicine resident in 2004.
This document discusses shelter medicine and strategies for improving animal welfare in shelters. It addresses issues like emerging diseases, overpopulation, euthanasia rates, and improving animal health and adoption rates. It emphasizes the importance of prevention through strategies like vaccination, sanitation, stress reduction, and population management. Shelter medicine aims to balance animal needs with population health to help animals before, during, and after shelter stays.
This document summarizes a study conducted in Spring 2016 that evaluated family and community values at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, Washington. The study aimed to understand how the zoo fits into families' activities, what families perceive as valuable, how families view different informal science sites, and visitation levels. Key findings include: 1) Families engage in outdoor activities when not at the zoo; 2) Families value the zoo as an authentic and educational experience; 3) Parents value fun over other values for older children; and 4) The zoo is widely known and has the highest attendance and membership of the informal science sites studied.
This presentation explores the question of how can we do the most good to address suffering and improve flourishing throughout the globe. This is not an easy question to answer, as there are many specific actions we can take to do so. The presentation thus considers the underlying principles behind what we mean by "doing good," and how we can use rational thinking to quantify the amount of good we do in the world. From that basis, it proceeds to consider the kind of paths we can take that would maximize the good we can do. It then examines what other people committed to applying rational thinking to doing good have done as part of the Effective Altruism movement. Finally, it considers specific actions that each of us can take to bring our inherently limited resources to bear on addressing global suffering and improving global flourishing.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Seattle residents' views on elephants at WPZ
1. A Survey: What Seattle
Thinks About
the Woodland Park Zoo’s
Elephant Program
Prepared By:
October 2013
1
2. Background & Objectives
•
•
•
•
For more than seven years, Friends of Woodland Park Zoo Elephants, a NARN
campaign, has worked for the retirement of Bamboo, Chai, and Watoto so they may
spend the rest of their lives in a sanctuary in a warmer climate with more space.
Several news stories have been published informing the public about the health and
living conditions of elephants in zoo captivity, highlighting the Woodland Park Zoo.
Following these stories, and years of criticism of the elephant program, the Woodland
Park Zoo convened a Task Force to evaluate the condition of its elephants and the zoo’s
elephant program.
Friends of Woodland Park Zoo Elephants wanted to learn how Seattleites viewed or
learned about the following issues:
– Retiring the elephants
– The value of keeping elephants in Seattle
– How Seattleites learned about elephant poaching
– The credibility of the Task Force
– Replacing the live elephant exhibit with an educational program without elephants
– The Woodland Park Zoo’s elephant breeding program
Friends of Woodland Park Zoo Elephants wanted to understand all aspects of these
issues by querying the public in an unbiased, representative way so that the results
could be shared with the Zoo, Seattle City Council, Seattle Mayor, King County Council,
and constituents in order to help them make informed decisions.

3. Methodology
• Research Now, an independent research company, emailed an
invitation to its nationally representative panel sample on Friday,
October 18th.
– The survey was active for approximately 3 days, ending on Monday
night October 21st.
– A total of 5,815 invitations were sent to consumers in the panel
yielding just over 467 completed interviews.
– The survey length averaged 6 minutes.
• Respondents under age 18 were disqualified.
• The survey was programmed by CPC Consulting using Survey
Monkey.
– CPC Consulting was established in 1998 by Christine Craig, a veteran
market researcher with over 20 years experience. Corporate clients
have included T-Mobile, Allrecipes.com, Five Below, and Estee Lauder
as well as larger research vendors such as Millward Brown, Synovate,
and Praxis Research Partners.
– CPC Consulting and Craig work extensively in the non-profit arena.

4. What Did We Learn?
• While most Seattleites who responded had visited the zoo at
some point, the visits were not very recent or frequent. The
vast majority (90%) of respondents saw the elephant exhibit
when visiting the Woodland Park Zoo.
• 88% of Seattleites have not changed their behavior in any
way as a result of seeing the elephant exhibit.
• 66% of Seattleites believe that children can learn about
conservation via an exhibit that does not include live
elephants.
• 66% of Seattleites believe the zoo should stop breeding Chai.
• 97% of Seattleites learned about poaching from varied
sources – not from the Woodland Park Zoo.

5. What Did We Learn? (cont’d)
• 62% of of Seattleites support retiring Bamboo, Watoto, and
Chai to a sanctuary.
– Support is higher among those under the age of 45.
• Only 10% of Seattleites do not support retiring the elephants
to a sanctuary.
• Retiring the elephants will have no real impact on whether
Seattleites visit the Woodland Park Zoo.
