When you are asking for a raise or promotion, or funding for your business, it can feel as fraught as getting ready to plummet headlong into an unknown abyss. But as Kayt Sukel, author of The Art of Risk: The New Science of Courage, Caution, and Chance, told Fast Company, even the biggest risk-takers do a tremendous amount of work to prepare for high-stakes situations.
"These folks aren't just walking out in the middle of the street and saying, 'Hey, I think I'm going to jump out of a plane today.' . . . They engage in a lot of planning, they have a lot of background, and they know all the ins and outs of situations before they face them," Sukel explained. The most successful aren't always the bravest, they just put a lot of time into understanding the situation and their objectives and anticipating any challenges they might face.
That said, gathering the courage to make an ask is a tall order for many of us. Especially if you're battling social anxiety. So we asked the experts to tell us what it takes to soothe the jitters, find your voice, and get what you want.
"It's important to remember that you've already done the hardest part: You've stepped outside your comfort zone and have taken an enormous risk to execute on your vision," says Karina Sobieski, partner for human capital at SoftBank. "That's why it's crucial that you remember this vision and stick to the long game when taking a big leap or making a big ask. Your vision is your true north; it's what separates you from others and what will draw others to you."
Sobieski maintains that having the desire to ask for more means that you already have courage. "If you're wary about taking that next step, remember that whether you fail or succeed, you're already ahead because of the learnings that you will gain."
When asking for capital, she says, trust your intuition, but also do your homework. "Surround yourself with advisers, ask them hard questions, and listen carefully to what you hear back. It's okay not to have all the answers, but it should never be because you weren't brave enough to ask the hard questions—or you didn't care to listen carefully to others," she says.
As part of the session she conducted at Unusual Academy, an experiential boot camp for seed-stage entrepreneurs, Sobieski taught entrepreneurs how to translate vision into execution. "No matter how many pieces of advice you seek along the way, at the end of the day you're going to just have to have the courage to find your own way and not be afraid of failing," she says.
Fear of rejection can keep you on the sidelines of your professional life, says Josh Grau, a lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business and in the Northwestern Medill Integrated Marketing Communications Program.
That hesitation can be even more intense if you're an entrepreneur just starting out or lower on the totem pole inside your organization, says Grau. "But even the most experienced, senior people can fumble when it comes to getting others to buy into something new." So what's the secret to pitching with confidence and transforming how people think, feel, and act about a new idea? "One word: story," he says.
Studies have proven the persuasive power of storytelling. However, in our work lives, advocating for ideas typically means making arguments based on data, facts, and figures alone, at the expense of telling a compelling story, Grau points out.
"Across two courses I teach—one in the executive education arm of Stanford's Graduate School of Business called "The Innovation Playbook," the other as part of the Unusual Academy—the goal is to bring the story out of witness protection."
Grau believes that in order to move your audience intellectually and emotionally, you need to use convincing data and wrap it in a compelling narrative. "A story allows you to take the listener on a journey, evoking empathy, and providing a fresh perspective, which can engender confidence in both you and your idea," he explains. "Whether you've thought up a killer new product you know people will love, developed a new process that will make your team work efficiently, or want to make a case for a promotion or raise," Grau says, "a story helps transform a good idea into a great innovation."

Earlier this evening (July 14), Apple pushed out the iPhone SDK 3.1 Beta 2 and the iPhone 3.1 Firmware Beta 2 (7C106c). This comes exactly two weeks since the original release of iPhone 3.1 Beta 1 on June 30, 2009.
This 2-week release schedule was common during Apple's beta releases of iPhone 3.0 firmware. The beta build period for firmware 3.0 lasted a few months in which new beta builds were released every 2 weeks until the official release date on June 17, 2009.
Video editing now has the options to trim your clip "Trim Original" or trim and "Save New Clip" rather then replacing the original clip.
Many iPhone/iPod Touch owners anticipated a quick release for firmware 3.1, but with the release of 3.1 Beta 2, we may all be in for a longer wait than originally anticipated.
Also remember, if you have your iPhone/iPod Touch jailbroken or unlocked, you should not update to 3.1 when it is released, as you will lose both your jailbreak and unlock.
Update 1: Firmware 3.1 Beta 2 may prevent users from using IPCC hacks to enable tethering on their iPhone. Currently, this seems to only be affecting AT&T users.
Update 2: Firmware 3.1 Beta 2 may add support for manipulating live video. This can be used in Augmented Reality applications such as 'Layar' seen here.

Abstract : Attractive colloidal gels display a solid-to-fluid transition as shear stresses above the yield stress are applied. This shear-induced transition is involved in virtually any application of colloidal gels. It is also crucial for controlling material properties. Still, in spite of its ubiquity, the yielding transition is far from understood, mainly because rheological measurements are spatially averaged over the whole sample. Here, the instrumentation of creep and oscillatory shear experiments with high-frequency ultrasound opens new routes to observing the local dynamics of opaque attractive colloidal gels. The transition proceeds from the cell walls and heterogeneously fluidizes the whole sample with a characteristic time whose variations with applied stress suggest the existence of an energy barrier linked to the gelation process. The present results provide new test grounds for computer simulations and theoretical calculations in the attempt to better understand the yielding transition. The versatility of the technique should also allow extensive mesoscopic studies of rupture mechanisms in soft solids ranging from crystals to glassy materials.

MOSCOW — Savour the thrills, unpredictability, and constant drama of this World Cup. Even FIFA accepts the soccer showpiece might never be so engrossing again.
Russia might have staged the last 32-team World Cup. Or at least the last one not shoehorned in a crammed format at the end of the calendar year.
FIFA has yet to definitively rule out adding another 16 teams in time for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, but the leap to 48 teams will be happening for certain for the triple-hosted North American tournament in 2026. Welcome to 16 groups, each featuring three teams of which two advance to a round of 32.
Soccer leaders were seduced by the extra cash an expansion tournament would offer, but at the expense of the spectacle itself. Russia vindicated the 2016 internal FIFA briefing document that determined 32-team finals tend to produce the "highest absolute quality" on the field.
The lowest-ranked team at the finals, the hosts set the tone for the tournament by thrashing Saudi Arabia 5-0 in the opener. It wasn't a fluke as Stanislav Cherchesov's side unexpectedly qualified from its group and even eliminated 2010 World Cup winner Spain in the round of 16. It was only a successful penalty shootout away from reaching the semifinals.
As a tournament organizer, Russia also exceeded expectations. No one doubted Vladimir Putin's ability to mobilize the resources of the state to ensure operations ran smoothly. But police often adopted a relaxed approach to fans gathering on street corners and drinking in the streets. The hooliganism and racism that has scarred Russian football was absent.
Logistically, it was a triumph, but it will take longer to discover whether the changes in Russia were just camouflage for the tournament.
Even as they celebrate their second World Cup title, the French should have a sense of dread.
Germany became the third holder from the last three World Cups to be eliminated in the group stage. Germany's demise was a combination of complacency, failing to strike the right balance blending the young and older generation, and a simmering row over the Turkish heritage of Mesut Ozil and Ilkay Gundogan.
This was a tournament to forget for the top three players at last year's FIFA awards. Player of the year Cristiano Ronaldo excelled in only one match, scoring a hat trick against Spain, before European champion Portugal was knocked out by Uruguay in the last 16. Lionel Messi managed a solitary strike to help Argentina qualify from its group. And like Portugal it fell at the start of the second round, losing to France 4-3. The world's most expensive player at least made it a round further. But Neymar was still struggling for fitness after three months out with a broken toe.
The pitfalls of making a hasty return from injury were clear for Mohamed Salah, whose shoulder injury in the Champions League final in May meant the Egypt forward was unable to replicate his free-scoring form. English football's player of the year netted only twice as Egypt was eliminated in the group stage.
Expecting perfection was always unrealistic on the debut of video assistant referees. Confusion reigned in the opening days of the tournament. When grappling went unpunished and penalties were not awarded had the referee even consulted the VAR or was he just being lenient? Too many referees dithered over decisions. Take the awarding of the penalty in the final after assessing Croatia midfielder Ivan Perisic's handball. Ultimately, if the decision is right in the end, soccer might have to put up with delays. Airing some of the communications between referees and the VARs like they do in rugby will give coaches and fans more confidence in the system going forward. Particularly when it comes to what constitutes "clear and obvious" errors.
The demise of Spain in the last 16 underscored a shift in tactical effectiveness. Goodbye tiki-taka for now. Possession without using the ball effectively — attacking — is futile as Spain discovered against Russia. Instead, winning a free kick or corner proved the most effective route to scoring. Of 169 goals in Russia, 73 came from set-pieces. VAR helped, too, acting as a deterrent against wrestling and shirt-pulling to neutralize opponents as the balls were flying into the penalty area.
FIFA strengthened concussion protocols after the 2014 World Cup regarding when players return to action after head impacts. But there are protocols in place, not hard and fast rules. So Noureddine Amrabat should never have played in the group stage in Russia for Morocco five days after a concussion that left him unable to remember the incident. But Amrabat was allowed to defy the team doctor's advice.
"Can we do more? Of course," FIFA President Gianni Infantino said on Friday, without expanding.

A decision dating back to March 2017 to partially decriminalize cannabis finally went into effect at midnight on Monday, April 1. The plan eliminates most criminal penalties for public cannabis possession and consumption. It also completely decriminalizes use and possession in private residences. The temporary reform will last for three years, at which point the government of Israel will decide to make it permanent or cancel it. The decrim plan includes additional reforms aimed at increasing the number of legal medical grows across Israel.
A plan to decriminalize cannabis in Israel went into effect Monday, amending Israel's Dangerous Drugs Ordinance. Using and possessing cannabis for personal use in a private home is no longer an offense at all. Get caught with weed in public, however, and you'll still face a fine. For first-time offenses, the fine is $275 (1,000 shekel). Second-time offenders will pay double that amount.
A third strike in seven years triggers a criminal investigation and possible criminal charge and loss of driver's or firearm licenses. Minors, however, will enter diversion and rehabilitation programs, in an effort to keep young people out of the criminal legal system. Adults who complete a drug prevention program can have their third-time criminal charge erased.
Although the reform plan does not specify a quantity of cannabis designated "personal use," Israel's Anti-Drug Authority defines it as 15 grams, or about half an ounce.
The decriminalization reform won't apply to soldiers, minors or anyone with a prior criminal record. Israel police are taking efforts to remind people that possessing and consuming weed is still illegal. Only now, the offense carries a civil rather than criminal penalty, up to a point.
In addition to partially decriminalizing adult marijuana use, Israel has significantly expanded its medical cannabis industry. The country's medical cannabis program has licensed more doctors, removed caps on authorized growers, made medical cannabis products available at public retail pharmacies. Patients can obtain a medical cannabis authorization simply with a recommendation from their primary physician.
A worldwide leader in medical cannabis research and cultivation, Israel also legalized the export of medical cannabis in December 2018. Israel's rapidly growing industry, however, has faced increased security risks.
Just last week, masked and armed robbers raided a medical cannabis farm in northern Israel. The robbers made off with cannabis plants and the security guards' weapons.
While just the first successful robbery attempt on a medical cannabis farm in the country, Israeli officials are increasingly concerned about the security risks posed by industry expansion. Israel could add up to 50 farms in the next few years.
A final component of the reform plan will try to decrease the quantity of cannabis each patient can legally obtain. Globes reports that patient's leftover cannabis is making its way into the illicit market. It says patients are selling their surplus cannabis or simply gifting it to friends and relatives. The decriminalization plan that went into effect Monday could make it harder for police to prevent selling and gifting cannabis.

Bernie Sanders: Israel needs to end its 50-year occupation
The progressive senator compared Palestinians to Native Americans, but praised Israel's founding values
Sanders condemned anti-Semitism and Islamophobia (AFP)
MEE staff
Published date: 28 February 2017 13:56 UTC | Last update: 5 years 11 months ago
Democratic senator and former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has called for an end to the "50-year occupation" of the Palestinian territory by Israel in a speech on Monday, saying that Washington should pursue policies that would ensure a "prosperous future for Jews and Arabs, Israelis and Palestinians alike".
After asserting Israel's right to exist, praising its "progressive" founding values and emphasising the importance of having a democratic homeland for the Jewish people, Sanders compared Palestinians who fled their homes in the lead-up to the founding of Israel in 1948 to Native Americans.
"Like our own country, the founding of Israel involved the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people already living there, the Palestinian people," he said. "Over 700,000 people were made refugees."
He added that acknowledging the plight of Palestinians does not delegitimise Israel as much as learning about the suffering of Native Americans does not delegitimise the United States.
"There is no question that we should be and will be Israel's strong friend and ally in the years to come," Sanders said. "At the same time, we must recognise that Israel's continued occupation of Palestinian territories and its daily restrictions on the political and civil liberties of the Palestinian people runs contrary to fundamental American values."
Sanders contrasts Iran deal, Iraq war
Speaking at the conference of J Street, a liberal Jewish group that describes itself as pro-Israel and pro-peace, Sanders called on the United States to play a productive role in the Middle East. He drew a contrast between the Iran nuclear deal, which he said peacefully kept Tehran from acquiring an atomic bomb, and the Iraq war - "a foreign policy blunder of enormous magnitude".

"That agreement demonstrated that real American leadership, real American power, is not shown by our ability to blow things up, but by our ability to bring parties together, to forge international consensus around shared problems, and then to mobilise that consensus to address those problems," he said of the nuclear deal.
Sanders condemned anti-Semitism and all kinds of bigotry, calling on President Donald Trump and his cabinet to denounce hate.
"When we see violent and verbal racist attacks against minorities – whether they are African-Americans, Jews, Muslims in our country, immigrants in our country, or the LGBT community, these attacks must be condemned at the highest levels of our government," the senator said.

Sanders cited the bomb threats to Jewish community organisations and the suspected hate crime near Kansas City that claimed the life of an Indian immigrant.
"Trump and his political adviser Mr [Steve] Bannon understand that the world is watching: it is imperative that their voices be loud and clear in condemning anti-Semitism, violent attacks against immigrants in this country," he said.
Sanders, who is leading a progressive movement within the Democratic Party, slammed the White House for failing to mention Jewish victims in its Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, calling the move "extraordinary".

Investor demand for commercial property is expected to remain largely unchanged, for 2019, according to commercial agency Burgess Rawson.
Despite challenges in the second half of 2018 that included a reluctance by banks to lend, further federal government instability and a looming election, demand for quality commercial assets would continue, said Burgess Rawson director Shaun Venables.
Plus, a continuation of record-low interest rates and a likely easing of lending criteria should entice more investors, the agency said.
"For many people who read alarmist property articles predicting bubbles and doomsday events, it is easy to get caught up in negativity, lock up shop and wait for the storm to pass," Mr Venables said.
While there was a softening in demand for some popular asset classes last year, other sectors, such as supermarket and fuel and convenience investments, went from strength to strength.
"We saw appetite soften slightly for childcare through a perceived oversupply of centres, and demand for some forms of retail pulled back over concerns about the effects of online shopping," Mr Venables said.
But with yields for childcare centres experiencing a 'correction' following a record number of sales in recent years, Burgess Rawson is confident demand will largely re-establish itself this year.
"Childcare centres will continue to be sought after because the key fundamentals are still in place.
"Strong tenants, secure, long leases, guaranteed rental growth and modern, purpose-built facilities which tenants are required to maintain mean landlords have very little to worry about," he said.
A misguided fear of the impact of electric cars led to some pundits to incorrectly tip that fuel and convenience outlets would fall in popularity with investors, but these concerns were proven wrong.
Mr Venables noted that the petrol retailers of today are distinct from yesteryear's service stations, with present operators far less dependent on the sale of fuel and more reliant on turnover of fast food and groceries from what are effectively mini supermarkets.
With continued reporting of falling house prices, decreasing demand for residential apartments and the volatility of the share market, investors can be forgiven for feeling nervous about where to place their money, he said.
"But there are several commercial property sectors that are largely unfazed by general market fluctuations.
"These include medical centres, supermarkets, childcare centres plus fuel and convenience outlets, which all provide an essential service that we can't do without if we want to work, eat, live and drive," Mr Venables said.


It's been a busy few months since the last time I wrote a post on here. I'd feel bad about the length of time, but at this point no one is reading this and I'm not selling anything so that assuages the guilt a bit.
I've been busy though! My daughter was born at the beginning of June and that's been taking up a good chunk of my life for the past couple of weeks. She hasn't been taking up near as much of my time as she's been taking up my wife's time, but one of the nice things about working for corporate America is you get paid time off for having a kid.
That's one of the few downsides I've found to this self-employed writer gig. Most of the time the flexibility is a wonderful thing, but there's another side to that I didn't realize until my dad went into the hospital last year.
A lot of people have jobs that will continue to pay them if they need to take vacation time. If you're an indie creative of any sort then you're stuck in a different situation where if you don't work you (eventually) don't make money. Granted it takes some time, but the threat is still there.
The longest I've taken off without working much at all was back when my dad got sick in 2016. Even after he passed I wasn't firing on all cylinders for a couple of months after, and the slump showed in my pocket book. The good news is it was a nice experiment that let me see how long I could go and still make a livable income.
By the end of September 2016 I hadn't dipped below my monthly financial failsafe point despite not putting anything out for a month.
I know I don't have much to complain about here either. There are a lot of people who are in this situation working jobs that are a lot shittier than being self-employed as a writer. I know I didn't think about it until I found myself in a situation where I couldn't work for an extended length.
I was fine, but it's always good to think about. For you planning ahead might be the difference between making it or not in a given month, and you never know when the universe is going to give you a kick in the nuts.

Q: Is it possible to execute an efficient multiple row DELETE or UPDATE using EF4? I'm a developer still learning the intricacies of EF4.  I am well aware of how to pull down a list of objects and iterate through deleting them in a loop but I can't bring myself to write code that will execute n statements (and database round-trips) for n records when doing a mass update or delete.
A classic case for this is deleting child records prior to deleting a related parent record to maintain referential integrity...  (yes, I employ soft deletes by default but humor me)
In a stored procedure I'd just execute the SQL, like so:
DELETE FROM someChildTable WHERE ForeignTableId = @keyToGo
DELETE FROM parentTable WHERE Id = @keyToGo

In Linq To SQL I would do this:
dataContext.ChildrenTable.DeleteAllOnSubmit(from c in dataContext.ChildrenTable
                                            where c.ParentTableId == keyToGo
                                            select c);
dataContext.ParentTable.DeleteOnSubmit(parentToGo);
dataContext.SubmitChanges();

In NHibernate I would do this:
nhSession.CreateQuery("delete from ChildrenTable where ParentTable.Id = :keyToGo")
                        .SetInt32("keyToGo", keyToGo)
                        .ExecuteUpdate();
nhSession.Delete(parentToGo);

I've looked for the EF equivalent for any of these without success.
Must I really drop back to a stored procedure to do this within the context of EF4?
I hope not; please share.

A: EF is an ORM - object-relational mapper. It's great at mapping rows and columns from your relational database into your .NET object model - and this works best for reading, inserting, updating one or a few objects.
EF is not designed and intended as a tool to handle large operations, it's not designed and optimized to do batch updates, batch deletes etc. Those are handled much better by either using straight ADO.NET to execute those T-SQL commands against the database, or by just calling a stored procedure to do the work.
So in this situation, I would probably create a stored procedure to handle the delete operation, and then import that stored proc into my EF model so I can call it like a method on my EntityContext and let SQL Server do the heavy lifting.

A: If you make the relationship between the parent object and child object to be "Cascade all" in the database all you need to do from EF is to delete the parent object. The child objects (now called orphans) will be deleted by the database for you. There is no other way to do this efficiently in EF at the moment.

A: If you don't want to use the Cascade All as has been suggested then check out the ObjectContext.ExecuteStoreCommand function which allows to run ad-hoc queries against the data store.
This will most likely be the most efficient way to perform a bulk delete or update.

UVA lineman Ryan Swoboda among ACC Football Player of the Week honorees
Published Monday, Dec. 7, 2020, 2:16 pm
The ACC Football Players of the Week have been recognized following their standout performances in last weekend's games.
The selections are determined by a vote of a 16-member media panel. The following are this week's honorees:
QUARTERBACK – Dennis Grosel, Boston College, Jr., QB, Wiloughby, Ohio
Tied a 38-year-old BC single-game record originally set by Doug Flutie with 520 passing yards in Saturday's 43-32 road loss at Virginia • Set a career high with 32 pass completions and matched his career high with three touchdown passes • Surpassed his previous career high of 229 passing yards in a single game with 251 yards in the first half alone • Grosel's 520 yards passing were the most ever allowed by Virginia in a game and the most by an Eagles quarterback since Chris Crane's 428 at NC State in 2008.
CO-RUNNING BACK – Kyren Williams, Notre Dame, R-Fr., RB, St. Louis, Mo.
Eclipsed the 1,000-yards rushing mark for the season with 110 in the No. 2 Fighting Irish's 45-21 win over Syracuse • First Notre Dame player since Josh Adams in 2017 to reach 1,000 yards rushing for a season • Leads all FBS freshmen in rushing touchdowns (12), total touchdowns (13) and total rushing yards (1,011) • Ranks eighth among all FBS players nationally in rushing TDs, ninth in total TDs and fifth in rushing yards.
CO-RUNNING BACK – Sean Tucker, Syracuse, Fr., RB, Owings Mills, Md.
Became the first player to rush for more than 100 yards against Notre Dame this season with 113 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries • Led the way for Syracuse's offense, which registered a season-high 229 yards on the ground and 414 yards of total offense • Also caught two passes for 46 yards, the second-most yardage by Orange receiver in Saturday's game.
RECEIVER – Javon McKinley, Notre Dame, Gr., WR, Corona, Calif.
Caught seven passes for 111 yards and three touchdowns in No. 2 Notre Dame's 45-21 win over Syracuse • The three touchdown receptions marked a career-high and were his first three touchdowns of this season • McKinley scored two of his three TDs in the first half, marking the first time he has scored multiple touchdowns in a single half • Joined Ben Skowronek (versus Pitt) as the second Irish player to post a three-touchdown receiving game this season• McKinley and Skowronek are the only two players in Notre Dame history to record three touchdown catches versus a Power 5 opponent.
OFFENSIVE LINEMAN – Ryan Swoboda, Virginia, Jr., RT, Windermere, Fla.
Graded out at a near-perfect 96 percent in pass protection (allowing no sacks) in Saturday's 43-32 win over Boston College • Added a run-blocking score of 86 percent to grade out at 91 percent overall • His four "flat back" blocks helped the Cavalier offense generate a season-high 262 rushing yards and a season-high 549 yards of total offense.
DEFENSIVE LINEMAN – Quincy Roche, Miami, Sr., DE, Randallstown, Md.
Showed no rust after three weeks off, as he led the Hurricanes' defense in Saturday night's 48-0 win over Duke • Three of his six total tackles were for loss • Finished with 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery to earn the right to wear the turnover chain for the third time this season • Roche is the FBS' active leader in career sacks and tackles for loss.
LINEBACKER – Payton Wilson, NC State, So., LB, Hillsborough, N.C.
Despite suffering dislocations of both shoulders in the first half of Saturday's 23-13 win over Georgia Tech, led NC State with 11 tackles while playing a season low 53 snaps • Registered 2.5 tackles for loss • Made two third-down tackles and helped on another third-down stop with a quarterback hurry.
DEFENSIVE BACK – Clarence Lewis, Notre Dame, Fr., CB, Edison, N.J.
True freshman led the Irish with 12 tackles in Saturday's win over Syracuse, the most by a Notre Dame player in a single game since Julian Love's 12 versus USC in 2018 • Ten of Lewis' tackles were solo stops • Also broke up a pass and forced a fumble • Pass breakup came on third down to force a Syracuse punt • Helped Notre Dame limit Syracuse to 15 first downs.
CO-SPECIALIST – Christopher Dunn, NC State, Jr., PK, Lexington, N.C.
With three field goals in NC State's 23-13 win over Georgia Tech, now holds the school career record for field goals (56) • Scored 11 total points while connecting on field goals from 40, 20 and 39 yards • Ranks 10th in ACC history with 1.55 FGs per game (56 in 36 games) • His .862 career field goal percentage is the fourth-best mark ever for an ACC player.
CO-SPECIALIST – Porter Wilson, Duke, R-Fr., P, Fairlawn, Ohio

ROOKIE – Myles Murphy, Clemson, Fr., DE, Marietta, Ga.
Tied a season high with seven tackles in Saturday night's 45-10 win at Virginia Tech, including a forced fumble that led to a Clemson touchdown two plays later • Became the first Clemson true freshman in the Dabo Swinney era to record three forced fumbles in a season and the first Clemson freshman (true or redshirt) with three forced fumbles in a season since redshirt freshman Ed McDaniel in 1988.


In looking at activities to promote the adoption of iPads among faculty, it occurred to me that in order to help people appreciate the usefulness of the device, I need to do more than just recommend some apps that make my life easier. I also need to describe the workflow surrounding the apps.
A while back, I created a post to demonstrate how I Use iAnnotate to take note on my iPad (complete with cheezy video). Of course, this little demo is useful if you already have means for getting files to and from your iPad, and if you already have a strategy for managing those files on your computer. But, for those that are new to the iPad, my post leaves out too many details, that it is of limited use to those that just bought their iPads and are trying to figure out how to use them.
With this gap in mind, I've created an example of a work-flow that explains the complete process of reading and annotating my PDF journal articles.
Search for article. The process for finding article is beyond the scope of this point, but might make a nice future one! In short, I typically use Google Scholar to find articles. I have configured Google Scholar to use my university's library, so retrieving articles is usually quick and easy.
Download PDF, Save in Dropbox. I use Dropbox as the primary mechanism for transferring files between my computer and my iPad. Dropbox is free and a lot of applications integrate with it directly, making is a practical way to share files across devices. The software must be installed on both your computer and your iPad. If you don't already have a Dropbox account and are planning to sign up, I'd appreciate it if you used my referral link, as it gives me more "free" storage space.
Open in iAnnotate. The first time you use iAnnotate with Dropbox, you need to setup the connection between Dropbox and iAnnotate. Fortunately, iAnnotate has added a connection type of Dropbox, which means all you need to do is add your Dropbox account information and it just works. In iAnnotate, I open the Library then go to Connectivity. I select Dropbox, browse for the document and select it. Upon selection, the document is downloaded to my iPad. I then go back to the Library tab and select the document again, which opens it in the reading pane.
Read and Annotate. For details on how I do this see Use iAnnotate to take note on my iPad (complete with cheezy video).
Email Annotations. This is another one of those buried iAnnotate features. I click the tool box and under Document there is an option to E-mail Annotation Summary. This allows me to email all the text that I highlighted in the document, so that I don't need to type in any quotations, and it allows me to store the key quotes in notes.
Sync back to Dropbox. This is literally a click of a button. I click the Sync button and select Sync with Server.
Copy from Dropbox to Mendeley. I literally drag-and-drop the file from my Dropbox folder to the Mendeley desktop application. Once that is done, I double check that Mendeley has added the citation information correct. Here is a video (without sound) of how to look up articles in details by DOI.
Add emailed Annotations into Mendeley. On the notes tab for the article, I copy in the Annotations that I emailed myself in step 5.
Delete file from Dropbox. I have setup Mendeley to organize and store my files. Mendeley stores them locally on my machine, as well as a copy on the Mendeley server, so I don't keep a copy on Dropbox anymore. I may choose to move my local Mendeley reference directory back to Dropbox at some point in time just to have the extra backup. Either way, I still need to delete the copy that came from my iPad, so that I don't end up with multiple copies on my computer. For me, multiple copies means I can't figure out which one is my master version.
Delete file from iPad. Finally, I go into the iAnnotate library and delete the file from iAnnotate. If I want it again, I can always get it from the iPad Mendeley app, or I can copy it back into Dropbox and repeat this process.
That's it! That being said, the process is a little more convoluted that I'd like it to be. It would save me a fair bit of file management if Mendeley would integrate with iAnnotate. Mendeley does include some annotation capability on the Mac, but it doesn't transfer to the iPad and the Mendeley PDF viewer on the iPad isn't nearly as good as iAnnotate.
Was this useful? Do you want me to do more Workflows?

Q: Save the state of the animations in the presentation is it possible to save the final state of a click animation?
You open the presentation, click on a button, something animates and this state can then be saved.
The next time the presentation is opened, you can see the last state of the animations.
I have a circuit diagram showing the points that are open or closed. Now you have to save this state of the points like.

A: have now found a solution that is right for me ...
Sub ChangeControlSoft(ByRef oShp As Shape)

If oShp.Line.Parent.Rotation < 35 Then
    oShp.Line.Parent.Rotation = 35
ElseIf oShp.Line.Parent.Rotation = 35 Then
    oShp.Line.Parent.Rotation = 0
End If

End Sub

Maybe someone can still use it or improve it ;-)

Hear What One Cleveland Police Detective Says "has got to end"
Posted at 5:56 pm on July 21, 2016 by Jenn Jacques
Cleveland Police Detective Steve Loomis joined Harris Falkner on FOX News Sunday during the live coverage from Baton Rouge, LA after a 29-year-old man ambushed and shot six law enforcement officers, killing three. The incident happened less than two weeks after the officer-involved shooting death of Alton Sterling, a convicted felon who was in possession of a handgun and actively resisting arrest when shot.
Detective Loomis had some harsh words for everyone pushing false information and inflammatory rhetoric in America and cast his blame on everyone from the media, to celebrities and all the way up to the Oval Office:
"The President of the United States validated the false narrative that the nonsense that Black Lives Matter and the media are pressing out there to the public, validated it with his very divisive statements, and now we see an escalation. This has got to end," Loomis said. "We need some leadership in this country to come forward and put an end to this."
"The President of the United States has blood on his hands and it will not be able to become washed off."
"How the hell did we ever become the bad guys in this country?" Loomis said. "I cannot imagine how we got here. It's the irresponsible reporting of the media and it's the irresponsible statements of people that are credible, like the president of the United States, like celebrities – if you're blessed with celebrity and blessed with talent, then use that for good and not evil."

Naoto Mori, Hideki Miyake, Hidetoshi Mano, Takahiro Imanaka, Masatsugu Nakamura, Takeshi Matsugi, Naveed K Shams; MUC5AC assay of extracts from Schirmer strips with human tear using a modified commercial ELISA kit. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2018;59(9):4874.
Purpose : Dry eye is a multifactorial disease characterized by unstable tear film causing a variety of symptoms and/or visual impairment. Reliable measurement of human tear mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) is important for clarifying the pathophysiological role of MUC5AC in dry eye. Here, we developed an assay by optimizing MUC5AC extraction from Schirmer strips, improving the sensitivity and validating the use of a commercially available ELISA kit.
Methods : Healthy human tears were purchased from Lee Biosolutions, Inc., (Maryland Heights, MO). Informed consent was obtained before sample collection. Tears were spotted onto Schirmer strips and soaked in phosphate-buffered saline containing various concentrations of polysorbate 20 at room temperature and at 37°C. Extracts from strips were treated with neuraminidase to cleave sialic acids from MUC5AC. The ELISA kit for MUC5AC was purchased from Cloud-Clone Corp (Houston, TX). The ELISA plate was coated with blocking reagent (Block Ace Powder; DS Pharma Biomedical Co., Ltd. Osaka, Japan). This method was validated for extraction rate from Schirmer strips, limit of quantification, calibration range, and reproducibility.
Results : MUC5AC extraction rate from Schirmer strips increased depending on polysorbate 20 concentration. Conversely, ELISA sensitivity decreased in proportion to polysorbate 20 concentration. The optimized concentration of polysorbate 20 was set to 0.05%. MUC5AC extraction rate from Schirmer strips was 89% with 0.05% polysorbate 20 at 37°C. Treatment with neuraminidase significantly increased the signal-to-noise ratio more than 8-fold in the ELISA compared with in the absence of the enzyme. Blocking before the incubation step decreased nonspecific adsorption of MUC5AC to the plate, showing good linearity of tear dilution. In the standard calibration, the lower limit of quantification for MUC5AC was 19.5 pg/mL.
Conclusions : We developed a reliable ELISA method for MUC5AC in extracts from Schirmer strips. This method is useful to detect MUC5AC in tears of patients with dry eye, and can be used to subcategorize mucin deficiency-type dry eye.

Ahead of Saturday's governorship election in Osun, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, on Wednesday in Osogbo, canvassed support for the Peoples Democratic Party candidate, Senator Ademola Adeleke.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, PDP National Chairman, Uche Secondus, Governor Abdulfatai Ahmed of Kwara, the National Vice Chairman of the party, Eddy Olafeso, among others, joined Saraki at the mega rally held at Nelson Mandela Freedom Park in Osogbo.
Saraki, who is the National Chairman of the Campaign Council for Osun election, urged residents of the state to vote for PDP during the poll.
He said it was painful that APC-led administration in the state could not pay workers' salaries for three years.
Saraki said he was optimistic that Adeleke would win the election and put an end to the suffering of the people in the state.
"This election is about the people of Osun and they must send the message that government that cannot pay workers' salaries should be sent packing, " he said.
Atiku, while urging the residents to vote for the party on Saturday, said, "From what I can see here, it is a win for PDP.
"I urge you to defend and protect your votes for it not to be stolen".
In his remarks, Secondus said Adeleke would fix the state's economy, if elected, and appealed to INEC to ensure that the election is free, fair and credible.
Mr Soji Adagunodo, the PDP state chairman, said Osun was ripe to be taken by the party.
He appealed to residents to vote for PDP, promising them that Adeleke would not disappoint them.
Governor Ahmed in his remarks also urged the electorate to use their Permanent Voter Cards to vote for PDP.

Date of entry: Aug-17-1998
Medea killed her brother and left her father in order to follow Jason and his captured Golden Fleece to Corinth. They marry and have two sons. As the play opens, Medea is distraught with jealousy because Jason has repudiated her to marry the daughter of Creon, King of Corinth. He insists that his new status will be for her own good and that of her children.
Medea and her sons are to be banished, but she begs a day's reprieve. She contrives to poison the princess bride with gifts that catch fire, consuming her and her father too when he tries to save her. In her madness, Medea "reasons" that she must kill her beloved children in order to avenge herself upon her husband.
The boys' cries can be heard from off stage as she slays them with a sword. The grieving Jason wishes that he had never begotten his sons, just as Medea wishes that she had never followed him out of her home.
An ancient tragedy of human jealousy and rage that led a woman to infanticide, the most "unnatural" of deeds--a deed that, for 2500 years since this play was written, has been a pathognomic for female madness. The Chorus chants "one woman, only one of all that have been, have I heard of who put her hand to her own children" when she was "driven mad by the gods" (line 1283-5).
At the end, Jason asks Medea why she would kill her children because of his marriage. She replies: "Do you imagine that loss of this is a trivial grief for a woman?"(line 1368). The "hero" replies, "for a woman of sense, yes." Yet, at least some occupants of the misogynist world of ancient Greece must have been left wondering to which view the great author of women's tragedies intended them to subscribe.
Translated by David Kovacs. The English text of the play comprises 66 pp. in this edition.

I thinQ it's a little late to be prepping new phones for MWC.
We're just over a week from LG's event at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on February 24, where the LG G8 will be publicly unveiled — not that LG hasn't already been promoting tons of G8 features already. With all the G8 details we've seen, it may seem like there won't be much to announce day-of, but maybe LG's getting out more G8 details early so that they can devote more event time to another phone: the LG V50 ThinQ, which has leaked again, in full carrier branding this time.
That's not a particularly great shade of gold for the 5G logo on the back of that phone, but hey, it's Sprint. This leak from Evan Blass looks like a promotional press render for Sprint to show off as it keeps hyping up its 5G buildup — like every other carrier in 2019. We first heard reports out of Korea at the end of Lanuary that the LG V50 would be unveiled alongside the G8, with the phone launching on Sprint in March.
Granted, Sprint has only planned to bring 5G to 9 cities in the first half of 2019, but hey, if you're going to sell 5G networking, you need to have phones that can use it, don't you? In any event, we'll see what's what at LG's event on February 24 in Barcelona.

A NEW compound of exceptional interest to both chemists and textile manufacturers is the subject of an exhibition housed at Dorland House, S.W.I, on October 5–8. This preparation, which has been given the name "Velan", has been developed during the past three years at the Manchester laboratories of Imperial Chemical Industries, Ltd., as a universal water-proofing agent for textile goods. Information concerning the chemical composition of Velan is not yet available, but it would appear to be a complex organic substance which reacts with both hydroxyl and amino groups and on that account is able to combine with both animal and vegetable fibres. For the impregnation of textiles, Velan is used in the form of aqueous dispersions, which are readily pre-parable from the substance without the aid of supplementary agents. The impregnated fabrics are dried, and combination between the reagent and the textile fibres is afterwards effected by heating at a temperature of 100 °-150 ° C. It is the last stage of the process which gives permanence to the proofing.

Jacob Rees-Mogg announces extra month's holiday for MPs
By Charlotte Ikonen @charlotteikonen News Editor
Commons Leader Jacob Rees-Mogg said MPs would take a two-week break in February
MPS are to be given an extra month's holiday this year compared to 2019, the most days of downtime since Brexit took over the parliamentary agenda.
The Commons will be in recess for 64 working days this year – not including conference season and the Christmas break, which has yet to be announced.
It's the most days MPs have had off since 2014.
The bumper breaks mean Boris Johnson will have fewer sessions of Prime Minister's Questions and ministers won't have as many departmental questions sittings.
It will give Parliamentary committees less time to scrutinise Government decisions through the year.
Last year the Commons was in recess for just 46 working days, excluding the dissolution for the General Election.
Commons Leader Jacob Rees-Mogg said MPs would take a two-week break in February, which was not taken last year so Parliament could concentrate on Brexit.
Both the summer and Easter recesses are a full week longer than 2019. At 35 working days, MPs' summer holiday this year will be the longest since 2009.
Many MPs use the recess to catch up on constituency work – but they are free to use the time as they wish.
The average holiday entitlement for British workers is 33.5 days.

COURT DOC: USA v. Khalilullah Yousuf et al.
The U.S. Department of Justice announced that "A criminal complaint was unsealed…in federal court in Brooklyn charging Mohammad David Hashimi, 35, of Potomac Falls, Virginia; Abdullah At Taqi, 23, of East Elmhurst, Queens, New York; Khalilullah Yousuf, 34, of Ontario, Canada; and Seema Rahman, 25, of Edison, New Jersey, with conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS)."
"According to court documents, Hashimi and Yousuf were members of a group chat…on an encrypted social media and mobile messaging electronic communication service that facilitated communication between and among supporters of ISIS and other groups that adhered to similar violent jihadist ideologies. In early April 2021, members of Group Chat-1 discussed posting donation links that purported to be for humanitarian causes but that were in fact intended to help the 'mujahideen,' an Arabic term that translates to 'holy warriors' that is used by ISIS supporters to refer to ISIS fighters….Between February 2021 and July 2022, the defendants raised and contributed more than $35,000 to Facilitator-1 via a combination of cryptocurrency and other sources."

Loved how clear and quick (and yummy) making these cookies look! 🎉For those of us total newbies to baking, what's fondant? Does one just buy this easily from the stores or can one make this easily?
Hi Eirene, yes you can buy rolled fondant from most baking supply stores. You can also make it but I highly recommend buying one from Wilton or Satin Ice because I find them much easier to handle than homemade fondant. Hope that answers your question and have fun baking!
