Star formation the conversion of gas into stars is arguably the most important process in the universe. Yet there are regions of space that are so tempestuous, so inhospitable that star formation can be completely halted in the galaxies that reside there.

Astronomers have spent the last 50 years asking: Why is star formation linked to the region of space in which a galaxy lives? And how is it stopped?

A new research project, the Virgo Environment Traced in Carbon Monoxide (VERTICO) Survey, tries to answer these questions using the worlds most advanced ground-based telescope. The goal is to reveal the influence of so-called galaxy environments on molecular gas, the raw fuel for star formation, in detail.

VERTICO is focused on a particularly extreme region of space called the Virgo Cluster, named for its location in the Virgo constellation in the night sky. This cluster contains thousands of galaxies bound together by gravity into one vast superstructure. Galaxy clusters such as this one are the ideal place to observe the effects of environment on star formation.

To understand just how extreme the Virgo Cluster is, it is helpful to place it in the context of our own galactic neighbourhood. The Milky Way resides in a rather benign group of approximately 80 galaxies that is spread out over five million light-years. In contrast, the Virgo Cluster is more than 1,000 times the mass of the Milky Way, and contains thousands of galaxies in a region of space that is only about three times the size of the Milky Ways group.

Such a large amount of mass in such a small volume causes extraordinary gravitational forces, which in turn accelerate galaxies to speeds of millions of kilometres per hour and superheat the plasma that permeates the cluster to millions of degrees Celsius. It is these violent conditions that give rise to a class of physical phenomena so powerful they can stop hundreds or even thousands of galaxies from forming stars.

VERTICO is a Canadian-led collaboration of international astronomers that used the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) in the Chilean Andes to provide some of the most detailed images ever taken of the star-forming gas in Virgo Cluster galaxies.

With these state-of-the-art data, we are able to identify the physical processes that are affecting how galaxies form their stars by observing their influence on 51 galaxies within the Virgo Cluster.

When we studied the beautiful images captured, we found that, in the Virgo Cluster, external physical processes are capable of reaching far into galaxies to perturb their molecular gas, affecting how stars are born and the galaxy evolves.

Over the next few years, our team will continue to mine this rich resource for insights into how stars form and galaxies grow in extreme environments such as the Virgo Cluster.

A valid question to ask of any scientist is, why does this matter?

From an academic perspective, one of the most satisfying things about astronomy is that simple questions can lead us straight to the frontiers of human understanding. Basic questions such as Why do stars form? and How do galaxies grow? sit right at the heart of the VERTICO collaborations research and will provide the foundation on which the next generation of astronomy will be built.

Astronomy research is a great Canadian, global and human success story. The VERTICO collaboration consists of almost 40 researchers from nine countries, each with their own culture and language. This team has come together to conduct cutting-edge work using the worlds most advanced telescope that has been built in Chile using North American, European, Asian and South American technology and expertise.

Scientific projects such as VERTICO drive an exchange of people, ideas and funding between organizations and across borders that is of critical importance to the social, economic and academic fabric of our society.

Why it's location, location, location, even when it comes to galaxy evolution - The Conversation CA

If there was any evidence needed that France could be international hockeys big story of this decade, somewhat like Belgium did in the decade that went by, it came on a breezy Wednesday night in Bhubaneswar. Never mind that it came at Indias cost.

In December 2011, a youthful Belgium team defeated India for the first time, a result that announced their arrival on the world stage. Frances stunning 5-4 win over India in the opening match of their Pool B encounter of the Junior World Cup might not seem like a similar watershed moment right now. But it points to the European sides constant improvement, to the point that they will no longer be considered minnows going forward.

Frances upswing started at the same venue at the 2018 World Cup, where a ragtag bunch of players reached the quarterfinals. Timothee Clement, the youngest player of that team, was one of their heroes back then. Clement, the oldest player on this side, was their hero on Wednesday as well. The 21-year-old put up a heroic performance, scoring a hat-trick and making crucial clearances, including an unbelievable goal-line save, to lead his side to this famous win.

But more than the result, it was the way France went about it that was more impressive. And Graham Reid had seen it coming.

France, he had gathered from the limited footage that was available, played like a European team held the ball, moved quickly and attacked from the right. The India coach could not have been more accurate in reading his opponents game plan. Yet, the team couldnt stop them from executing it.

To be fair to Reid, hes only been with this side for a month or so. Indias junior team had been coached by BJ Kariappa for the last couple of years after Jude Felix left. Then, as they did just before the 2016 Junior World Cup where Roelant Oltmans was given the charge of a team that was coached by Harendra Singh, Reid was asked to take over the team this time, with Kariappa as his assistant.

Reid had been understanding enough to not tinker a lot although he admitted before the tournament that he didnt really know a lot about the players, or the way they played. In truth, very few knew.

Limited playing time

Before Wednesday, Indias junior team hadnt had a competitive international match for almost two years. And for the last year or so, they had virtually become a simulation machine for the Tokyo-bound team. To help prepare the seniors, who too were starved of competitive matches, for the Olympics, the under-21s were made to play like Indias opponents Germany one day, Belgium the other and so on.

Reid didnt believe the simulation affected their playing style they were still trying to play their own game, he said. But juniors lacked co-ordination and made many uncharacteristic errors. Perhaps, they were just rusty because of the lack of match practice.

There were mis-traps galore and the long balls were not controlled. Unlike the senior team, where a player holds the ball for three to five seconds at best before passing, the colts embarked on long, at times aimless, runs that spoiled the teams structure.

France were shrewd to take advantage of Indias mistakes. But they didnt rely only on that. From the very first minute, France took matters into their own hands, launching wave after wave of attacks and being breathtakingly strong on the ball moving it quickly to the right, slicing open Indias defence and raiding the goal. They were quick off the blocks in each quarter and made that count their goals coming moments after restart each time.

This win puts them in pole position to top the group and get a favourable draw for the quarterfinals.

For India, theres still enough time to turn this around. Despite the loss, it wasnt all doom-and-gloom. There were a few bright spots.

Not all gloomy

Penalty corner specialist Sanjay showed why he is tipped to take the spot vacated by Rupinderpal Singh in the senior side. He generated plenty of pace in his drag-flicks and was able to find corners, making it tough for the goalkeeper to get near the ball. His hat-trick (15, 57, 58) kept India alive in the match until the last minute.

The performance of the forward line, too, will encourage Reid. Araijeet Singh Hundal, Sudeep Chirmako and Maninder Singh opened up the French defence quite easily, and repeatedly. Hundal was impressive in particular with his long strides and probing runs but India lacked the sharpness. A couple of shots hit the post and one went across, which left the team ruing.

And lest it be forgotten that even at the Tokyo Olympics, India scripted a turnaround after losing 7-1 to Australia early in their campaign. If anything, the defeat to France complicates Indias title defence. At the same time, it asserts Frances status as world hockeys next big thing.

The Covid-19 pandemic has had dramatic consequences for HIV containment.

Geneva, Switzerland - The Covid-19 pandemic has had dramatic consequences for HIV containment, with human and financial resources diverted, prevention programs compromised, and supply changes disrupted. And there's already some evidence that the interplay between the two diseases is contributing to the emergence of new variants.

Even before the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the fight against HIV/AIDS was progressing too slowly worldwide, the UN program UNAIDS and other aid organizations warned at a news conference on Friday.

According to UNAIDS, people infected with HIV have twice the risk of dying from Covid-19 compared to the general population. However, most people living with HIV still do not have access to vaccines against the coronavirus.

Two-thirds of all people with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa, where only 3% of the population has received at least one Covid-19 jab by mid-year.

"Covid-19 has been the most significant setback in the fight against HIV," said the executive director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, Peter Sands.

According to the Global Fund, HIV testing dropped by 22%, holding back HIV treatment initiation in most countries, while the number of people reached with HIV prevention programs and services declined by 11%.

The pandemic also had a "devastating impact" on the fight against tuberculosis (TB). In 2020, the number of people treated for drug-resistant TB in the countries where the Global Fund invests dropped by 19%.

As concern over the new Omicron variant of Covid-19 continues to grow, there's already some scientific evidence that these more virulent dangerous strains emerge in people with severely weakened immune systems a trademark of HIV infection.

Scientists told the Telegraph that they believe the mutations in Omicron came about as a result of a chronic Covid-19 infection in an immunocompromised patient.

Although much more research is needed to confirm the theory, the unusual evolution of the new variant suggests it had plenty of time in a host whose immune system could not kill it off an "evolutionary training gym" of sorts in which to become a "fitter" form of the virus.

University of Cambridge Professor Sharon Peacock told the paper that Omicron "may have evolved in someone who was infected but could then not clear the virus, giving the virus the chance to genetically evolve."

According to the HIV and AIDS charity AVERT, South Africa has the biggest HIV epidemic in the world, with over 7.5 million people living with the virus. Less than three quarters of them have access to effective treatment.

After almost 25 years in the market, the benefits of managed accounts are well established.

Once only feasible for advice businesses serving wealthy clients with bespoke portfolios, managed accounts are emerging with new investment options and lower fees, enabling advisers to use the transparent structures with a wider range of clients.

The products improve the efficiency of advice practice management by streamlining the process for implementing portfolio changes and may reduce the requirement for compliance documentation such as records of advice.

For clients, having beneficial ownership of the underlying investments offers greater transparency of portfolio holdings than other managed investment types and may make managed accounts more tax-effective than investments in a pooled unit trust.

But bigger than that, is the intergenerational wealth transfer, which continues to present opportunities for advisers to capture that next generation of clients who will need advice and allow advisers to grow business revenue.

And we know there is a growing demand for high-quality financial advice that is affordable and accessible. The number of unadvised Australians who intend to seek financial advice in the next two years rose to 2.6 million in 2020 from just 1.3 million in 2015, according to Investment Trends[1].

Tailored offerings

Historically, managed accounts have been used by wealthier clients with complex investment and tax management needs, who are looking for bespoke investment solutions through an individual managed account. Now, managed accounts have evolved to a point where they are within reach of all clients.

Advice businesses can use managed accounts to efficiently implement portfolios that showcase their investment expertise when this forms part of their value proposition. Portfolios could be hand-picked by the adviser, selected by the licensee to match an in-house investment philosophy, or managed externally but tailored to a clients individual ethical, social, tax or income preferences.

Wealthy clients have the capacity to pay for tailored investment selections and a managed account that can be highly customised for their objectives. Lower balance clients also benefit from professional portfolio management and visibility of investment holdings but many have been unable to afford to pay for individualised investment services.

Shift in focus

Many financial advisers already outsource research recommendations and model portfolios to investment consultants such as Lonsec, Morningstar and Zenith.

Changes in the advice landscape have seen some advisers move away from providing investment advice as the central tenet of their offering. Only 45 per cent of Australians seeking financial advice were looking for advice on investments, the Australian Securities and Investments Commissions 2019 report Financial advice: What consumers really think found.

Those advisers who do not base their value proposition on their investment expertise find that outsourcing the research function frees them up to spend more time having strategic and goals-based conversations with clients.

However, many advisers continue to implement their client portfolios in-house. Advisers handling their own portfolio implementation receive information from their asset consultant, identify which client portfolios need to be updated, and contact those clients for approvals before executing the changes either one-by-one or in bulk. Changing the portfolio triggers the need for additional advice documentation.

Platform technology and adviser software are continuously improving, increasing the efficiency of reporting and administrative processes, as well as the speed of execution, but they cannot remove the bottlenecks entirely.

It takes time to review and digest an asset consultants recommendations, read client reports, contact clients, and wait for their responses. It also takes time to prepare compliance documentation.

Process improvement

Managed accounts allow advisers to re-engineer the process to remove these bottlenecks.

After the client has invested in a managed account, the investment consultant running the portfolio can rebalance and update to preserve the target risk level and asset allocation without needing to seek consent from the client or prepare additional advice documentation.

This can shrink the execution lead time. It may also reduce the compliance risk of having clients funds committed to what may have become an inappropriate investment.

Using managed accounts run by asset consultants can also save advisers time when engaging with clients as these asset consultants provide detailed commentary on their portfoliosthat can be passed on to clients, without advisers having to prepare reports for themselves.

Professional asset consultants only add or remove investments from their portfolio recommendations for good reason. When they make changes, they expect those to be reflected in client portfolios as soon as possible.

While managed funds are similarly responsive and eliminate the need for additional documentation for portfolio changes, they do not provide the client with beneficial ownership of the underlying assets or as much transparency of investment holdings as managed accounts do.

Total costs

When clients look at the cost of advice, they consider the total amount they are charged including fees for accessing and implementing investments, and the cost of their advisers strategic recommendations.

By improving business efficiency and removing product fees and fees for asset consultant services, clients using the new breed of managed accounts pay less overall for advice. This makes managed accounts a more viable option for lower balance clients who want professional portfolio management, transparency and beneficial ownership of their investments, without an additional layer of fees.

Advice businesses that serve these clients gain greater flexibility in the way they charge for their advice and save time that can be used elsewhere having deeper strategic conversations with clients, working on the business, or expanding to serve more people.

Mrunal Thakur shares withAnalita Seth how her personal style has evolved over the years.

Returning to the ramp after a year, how do you feel?I am very excited. I walked for JJ Valaya and its been a dream of mine to wear his design and here I am.

Do you feel safe?Yes, the team made sure there were no outsiders around me and everyone was tested before I got here. Everyone is masked up so I feel safe.

Tell us about your showstopper outfitWhen I wore this outfit, I told everyone that I think Im ready to get married. I just need to find the groom. Its just so overwhelming. It actually makes you feel like youre the bride. I kind of feel emotional too, if I may say so. I saw the other designs from the collection too and they were all fabulous.

How has your personal style changed over the years?Oh yes, the idea of fashionhas changed for sure. EarlierI would keep it subtle and never wear anything that was quirky but now, as an actorI feel the need to experiment with colours. I feel like Im comfortable with Indianwear. I love sarees. ButI have evolved.

A fashion tip for allthe readersJust be comfortable anddont pretend. Dont wear something because someone else is. Follow what your heart says. You need to be comfortable because everything shows onyour face.

Five things that instantly make you happyCoffee, outdoor schedule, food, travel and my family.

Impact of cyber attacks on organisations

We live in an era of localisation and divergence of privacy laws evolving in response to rapidly developing technologies, including AI, quantum computing and the Internet of Things. Mr Friedberg observed that cybersecurity is clearly a key business concern which, if addressed incorrectly, can have significant financial and reputational repercussions.

This year in particular has seen an uptick in cyberattacks by foreign states and state-sponsored agents, in pursuit of their geopolitical and economic goals, as well as cyber extortion by criminal threat actors. Such incidents highlight the importance of strong cybersecurity controls.

Implementing robust cybersecurity, however, is a separate issue. Mr Friedberg highlighted the balancing necessary between implementing a zero trust policy for software updates and allocating appropriate resources to vet such updates. From a liability perspective, it seems somewhat absurd to require enterprises, particularly SMEs, to decompile all updates before deploying them. Mr Friedberg recalled an instance of decompiling one piece of software, suspected of being backdoored by a foreign agency, taking 12 weeks of reverse engineering.

Mr Friedberg noted that, in most cases, threat actors do not need to rely on zero-day exploits due to many companies lacking basic cybersecurity protection. He emphasised that to manage this cybersecurity risk organisations should:

The Board and executive leadership

As organisations prioritise cybersecurity, efforts to ensure appropriate Board and executive leadership and cybersecurity governance are crucial. Mr Friedberg explained that there should be strong communication between the board and the CISO because there are no standardised methods for reporting on cybersecurity in the same way that companies report on profits. He also highlighted the dangers associated with isolating the CISO and recommended implementing measures to ensure that there is a collective responsibility for cybersecurity risk between the board and the CISO.

Insurance

The panel also discussed the tightening insurance market following significant losses in the ransomware space. A full transfer of risk and liability via insurance products is becoming increasingly difficult to find, with some insurers in certain jurisdictions stopping payment for ransomware attacks entirely.

What could be done better?

Mr Friedberg emphasised a few key areas for potential improvement in responding to ransomware:

Dig down, and evolution by natural selection is just about spontaneous, sustained accumulation of complexity if life elsewhere exists, its likely to develop in the same way

By Graham Lawton

EVOLUTION is a fact of life, at least of life as we know it. Here on Earth, organisms that just so happen to be better adapted, or fit, for their environment, perhaps by virtue of a fortuitous mutation, tend to survive longer and leave more offspring. The less fit leave fewer descendants and the unfit none at all. Whatever it was that made the winners fit thus accumulates in the next generation, a cruel and random Squid Game called evolution by natural selection.

As to why it happens, on one level thats simple. According to biologist Richard Dawkins, evolution is simply a change in gene frequencies in populations. If a gene in a colony of woodlice living under a dead log becomes more or less common for some reason, evolution has happened.

But must it be like that? All life on Earth that we know of comes from the same origin and uses the same biochemical operating system based on DNA. Putative life on other planets, or shadow life from an independent origin on Earth, might conceivably operate under very different rules. Does life have to evolve and if so, does that have to be by natural selection? Thats a very interesting and large question, says Dawkins.

Arik Kershenbaum at the University of Cambridge, author of The Zoologists Guide to the Galaxy: What animals on Earth reveal about aliens and ourselves, thinks the alternatives are limited. One might be to postulate an intelligent designer, as perhaps we ourselves might someday design self-replicating organisms. But

One of the fun ingredients in the newScience Uprisingepisode, Fossils: Mysterious Origins, is the overly confident Darwinists roped in to serve as foils. The most amusing is the first, who smugly announces, So lets spend some time going through the facts and how evolution explains them all so well. First, fossils.

The rest of the episode, with Gnter Bechly, Casey Luskin, and Stephen Meyer, goes on to smash that claim. Weve been hearing that this episode ofScience Uprisingmay be the best yet. But you may wonder about the guy who delivers the assurance about fossils and evolution. Who is he? Ah, hes Hank Green of the very popular YouTube channel,Crash Course.The line is from a video with 2.2+ million views, Evolution: Its a Thing Crash Course Biology #20. In the same video, Green tells viewers, Evolution: Its a thing. Its not a debate. Ha, the scornful tone! I take it that Hank Green hasnt acquainted himself with the information inScience Uprising. He really should.
