nternational Biodiversity Projects and Natural History Museums: Current stat...
Background / Purpose: The 21st century started with an impressive number of international biodiversity initiatives, such as the International Year of Biodiversity (2010) and the recently launched United Nations Decade on Biodiversity ( http://www.cbd.int/2011-2020/ ). Main conclusion: Most nations are now members of the Convention on Biological Diversity and expressed a strong commitment for safeguarding Earth´s biodiversity through their National Biodiversity Action Plans and work programs supporting taxonomy, such as the Global Taxonomy Initiative. Internet projects such as the Global Biodiversity Information Facility provide unprecedented opportunities for taxonomists and Natural History Museums to make their efforts visible through the federation of separate museum databases: users can search for species, visualise localities on a map and recall pictures of museum specimens made available by “Virtual Museums”. However, availability of multimedia data is still limited, particularly for type specimens. Taking European museums as an example, I demonstrate the potential of successful virtual museum projects and analyse priorities and needs for further digitisation, which is a pre-requisite for repatriation of biodiversity data from tropical countries. Improved access to collections is also among the main tasks of the recently established CETAF secretariat in Brussels ( Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities ). This new institution will function as a European voice for taxonomy and systematics, and hopefully helps to sustain orphaned EU activities from former projects supporting taxonomy, such as the European Distributed Institute of Taxonomy .
Quest for Orthologs: anchoring comparative biology research (TDWG 2013)
Quest for Orthologs (QfO) is a volunteer effort to jointly create a firmer foundation for comparative biology research. Extrapolating knowledge from a handful of organisms for which experimental data is available to other living organisms is the heart of comparative biology, and orthology assignments are axiomatic. Whether the aim is to find the gene in a model organism corresponding to a human disease gene, inferring the function of a newly sequenced gene using available experimental assays from its orthologs, or inferring species phylogenies by tracing the evolution of orthologous groups, reliable ortholog predictions are needed. Any improvement to this essential base will offer enormous benefit to the entire biological community. Currently more than 30 different phylogenomic databases provide their ortholog analysis results to the scientific community, each differing in many ways—number of species, taxonomic range, sampling density, applied methodology, and more. In addition, phylogenomic databases differ in their concepts, making direct benchmarking problematic and presenting major obstacles to the user community looking for relationships between genes.
One of the prerequisite for the QfO consortium is a shared species phylogeny, which is used for the final determination of gene relationships during construction of sequence-based gene trees. A cladogram was therefore constructed for the 147 species of the reference proteomes (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/reference_proteomes/) based on information from various resources (http://wiki.isb-sib.ch/swisstree/Species_tree_for_Quest_for_Orthologs_reference_proteomes_2013). This talk presents the current progress by the QfO consortium and ideally will lead to a discussion of common needs and open questions.

Research infrastructures: the case for integrating freshwater biodiversity data
This document discusses the need to integrate freshwater biodiversity data through research infrastructures. It notes that solid data provides a scientific foundation for water policy and is needed to halt biodiversity loss. Existing data repositories and generating infrastructures are mentioned, but there is still a need for collaboration and sharing of expertise and data. The Global Wetlands Observing System is highlighted as one collaborative effort that works to provide products like atlases and indexes by bringing together partners, data providers, donors, and targeted users.

Family Abuse in the Churched Community
This document discusses family abuse in the church community. It notes that abuse is often justified by claims of theology or biblical interpretations around submission. However, the Bible does not condone abuse. While faith can sustain abuse victims, many victims do not receive support from churches. The document recommends that church leaders receive training on abuse resources and refer victims to professionals rather than sending them back to abusers or blaming the victim. The purpose of batterer counseling programs is to educate abusers and hold them accountable rather than blame victims or make excuses for the abusive behavior.

Different editing tools are used to prepare the final cover design incorporating an estate photo background.
BBFC 2013 survey
One in five children were disturbed by content from illegal streaming sites. Half of kids spent an hour a day watching movies on smartphones and tablets over the summer. A survey found that many kids downloaded rated 15 movies from pirate sites, and felt peer pressure to use illegal sites. Parents are encouraged to use online tools to help kids watch movies safely and legally.
Structured Exception Handler Exploitation
This document discusses structured exception handling (SEH) exploitation on Windows. It explains how SEH works, the data structures involved like the exception registration record and thread information block. It describes how abusing SEH by overwriting pointers allows gaining code execution. The document provides steps to create a proof of concept exploit against a vulnerable ActiveX control by overflowing a buffer, overwriting the SEH pointers and injecting shellcode.

Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
KPMG_Startup_Survey_2014
The document provides an overview of the Slovak startup ecosystem based on findings from the 2014 KPMG Startup Survey. It finds that the typical Slovak entrepreneur is young (under 35), well-educated, predominantly male, and working in teams of 2-3 people. Startups cover many industries but are still early-stage, generating modest revenues and employment. While funding is being accessed, expectations remain conservative. The ecosystem is active in supporting startups through organizations, events, and services, though corporates could provide more support. Overall the Slovak startup scene is growing but there is still room for more development.

The document discusses biodiversity informatics and the large amount of untapped biodiversity data, referred to as "dark data", stored in various sources like literature, museum specimens, and field notes. It notes that over a billion natural history specimens have been collected over 250 years in many languages without standardized publishing. Extracting and integrating this dark data using techniques like machine learning and metadata extraction could help applications like ecological niche modeling and taxonomic analysis. It also describes education programs to train biological information specialists to help curate and manage biodiversity data.

The future for interoperable scientific information is digital, yet scientific names, the handles for all biodiversity information, remain without an integrated system tied to published descriptions and museum type specimens. Descriptions and type specimens provide standards for the otherwise fluid concepts of biological taxa. We are working to unify the infrastructures for biological nomenclature across nomenclatural codes (including zoological (ICZN - http://iczn.org/), botanical (ICNafp - http://www.iapt-taxon.org/nomen/main.php) and bacterial (ICNB) codes) through the Global Names Architecture (GNA). Our initial focus is on animal names, as these comprise the largest component of metazoan biodiversity and ZooBank (zoobank.org) is the first code-related online nomenclatural registration system. Users are applied scientists in agriculture, medicine, veterinary science and climate change research; biodiversity researchers such as ecologists, physiologists; archives such as museums; the scientific publishing community – in short, all users of scientific names of organisms based on the work of taxonomists.

Mapping Biodiversity - The Atlas of Living Australia
The document summarizes the Atlas of Living Australia project, which aims to provide open access to biodiversity data. It discusses challenges such as digitizing literature and specimens, standardizing data, integrating taxonomy, and developing tools for users. The Atlas will include a metadata repository, species pages, a regional atlas, and annotation tools to link data and comments. The goal is to make Australia's biological knowledge more accessible and usable.

The document discusses using ontologies and reasoning to analyze biodiversity data at scale. It proposes using phyloreferences - a universal coordinate system for life based on phylogenetic trees - to unambiguously refer to taxa. It also describes representing phylogenetic clade definitions and the Tree of Life as an ontology, allowing taxon names and relationships to be rendered computable. The document outlines how ontologies and reasoning could be used to infer missing phenotypic data, synthesize knowledge about trait evolution, and generate hypotheses about genes involved in morphological diversity by linking model organism and comparative data. Scaling reasoning to the size of biodiversity knowledge is discussed, along with a proposed architecture using specialized reasoners and triplestores.
A System for the Automatic Comparison of Machine and Human Geocoded Documents
This document discusses comparing machine-generated geocoding of documents to human-generated geocoding using MeSH terms from PubMed abstracts on avian flu as a case study. Over 4,500 abstracts were analyzed and around 2,000 referred to geographic locations. The accuracy of extracted geographic entities from the abstracts was calculated by country and issues like gazetteer mismatches and errors in the named entity extractor were discussed.

How the Encyclopedia of Life is wrangling organismal attribute data
The document discusses the Encyclopedia of Life's (EOL) efforts to aggregate and standardize organism attribute data from various sources. Some key points:
- EOL harvests data from over 240 content providers and hosts over 1.1 million species pages. It receives over 3.3 million annual visitors from 235 countries.
- EOL is developing a TraitBank to aggregate trait data from various datasets, totaling over 128,000 data points for over 20,000 taxa so far. It aims to make this data easily accessible and analyzable.
- Challenges include standardizing data from different sources and filling gaps, but aggregated trait data could help answer questions about topics like species interactions, tissue

TraitBank is the structured data service of the Encyclopedia
of Life. Launched in 2014, it currently hosts 9 million
data records for 1.7 million taxa, including trait records
(eg: cell size, life history traits) and other attributes including
administrative ones (eg: IUCN status, type specimen
repository). Marine datasets include verbal localities
from WoRMS, habitat categories from AlgaeBase, water
temperature ranges based on known occurrence records
from OBIS, and literature derived datasets including cell
masses of phytoplankton and tissue mineralization types
of algae and invertebrates. Hosted records include all
available metadata, including detailed attribution, url of
data source if online; organism information including sex
and life stage; date, locality and method information for
field studies, and any other fields provided by the source.
TraitBank is not a repository. Most hosted records are
deposited with a scholarly publication, or an institutional
or aggregator database. Presence in TraitBank makes
individual records findable by EOL search (http://eol.org/
data_search) or web search engine. Search results on EOL
are available by CSV download and records are available
to semantic web applications via a JSON-LD web service,
including all metadata. Fresh Data is a data search service
in development primarily for the Citizen Science community,
funded by NSF. Interested occurrence data providers
will register to be indexed. Their data will be deposited at
GBIF, using the IPT, if possible, and in TraitBank otherwise
(eg: presence/absence or abundance data, if GBIF
cannot accommodate them). Searchers can query the
index for recent records by time, location and taxonomic
group. Registered researchers will also be able to save and
publish their data queries, which will alert them if new
data appears matching their criteria, and alert the data
provider that their data was delivered to a subscriber.
