Austroads has updated the Guide to Road Design Part 6: Roadside Design, Safety and Barriers (AGRD Part 6) introducing new sections on the fundamentals of safety barrier systems and design advice for other road safety devices. This webinar, presented by Dr Rod Troutbeck and Richard Fanning, covers the new structure of AGRD Part 6 and new information included as part of the current guide update focusing on the following sections: Section 4: Treatment Options, including options for consideration for a number of relatively common hazards Section 5: Fundamentals of Safety Barrier Systems, including information to assist users to make informed decisions when selecting a barrier system for a particular site Section 6: Road Safety Barriers, including design process. The webinar also provides details and the research background to a number of new concepts and processes that have been included in AGRD Part 6. These include barrier flexibility as a measure of their performance, the use of working width rather than deflection, the need to choose an appropriate containment level, the use of a new concept of the departure points of redirection, the placement of barriers behind kerbs, a revised method to calculate the length of need, the need to install barriers in appropriate soils and the orientation of barriers on superelevated roadways.

Part 1: How Simulation Can Accelerate Your Digital Transformation. Around the mahogany tables of corporate boardrooms and the plywood workbenches of garage-based startups, one topic has threatened to monopolize business discussions for years: digital transformation. Part 2: The New Elements of Digital Transformation Since 2014, when our article “The Nine Elements of Digital Transformation” appeared in these pages, executive awareness of the powerful and ever-evolving ways in which digital technology can create competitive advantage has become pervasive. But acting on that awareness remains a challenging prospect. Part 3: When Does It Make Sense to Have Mixed-Mode Meetings? While organizations are preparing to return large numbers of workers to offices this fall, many senior leaders have questions about how to lead a reassembled workforce when not everyone is together. In a recent article, we put forward a principle to guide the reimagination of hybrid work post-pandemic: Take a virtual-first approach and bring people together physically only when it adds value to do so. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/maifors/support

In this episode, Teri has a two-way interview between himself and Pete Erickson of Modev, the company behind Voice Summit and the Inside Voice Podcast. Enjoy!Pete Erickson is the founder and CEO of Modev, and their very successful Voice Summit has so far been the largest gathering of voice technology enthusiasts in the world. Voice Summit 2019 will be taking place in Newark, New Jersey on July 22nd to 25th 2019.Pete has been interested in interviewing Teri for his podcast and Teri wanted to interview him for his podcast, so they decided to do a joint podcast to get each of each other’s ideas on what’s happening with voice technology today. New Elements in Voice Summit 2019: PeteThe Voice Summit 2018 was more focused on content and bringing voice technology enthusiasts together with as many voices as possible being heard. This year they want to do the same, but they are also adding in some key activations that were not there last year, like The Voice Awards (a full awards dinner where they will give awards across about 15 different categories. Amazon, Samsung and Microsoft will be giving special awards too).They will also add in the Sonic Brands Society, which is a new networking community specifically around audio branding, and it will launched at the Grammy Museum on the 23rd of July, 2019.They will add on a hackathon, S.T.E.A.M Day (for middle to high school kids), and more structured networking type of events.The Direction of Alexa in Canada: TeriTeri’s biggest passions are education, technology and healthcare.Three years ago he was not involved in the voice first space. He started hearing about voice assistants coming to Canada and got very interested. The more he looked into it; he realized it was something that was going to revolutionize everything that we do.He went into the web to look for resources that Canadians could use to learn about voice, but couldn’t find any, so he decided to create some type of resource. He first launched the Alexa in Canada Podcast.He started to learn about flash briefings and up until today sees them as one of the biggest opportunities in educating audiences.His flash briefing has been the number one flash briefing in Canada since its launch and is currently approaching its 500th consecutive episode.Being a physician, he launched the Voice First Health Podcast with the idea of educating people about what is going on at the intersection of healthcare and voice.He launched Briefcast.FM, the first network for flash briefings, where he vets flash briefings. The network solved the problem of flash briefing discoverability and gives people access to the best quality flash briefings today.He then created the Flash Briefing Formula, a free premium course on how to create a flash briefing.Teri at the Voice SummitHe’s going to give the overview to flash briefings and talk about the opportunities in that space while giving the current statistics on why it’s a great opportunity compared to podcasts.He will then give a tutorial on how to set up a flash briefing by recording a live flash briefing from the workshop, so people can see what goes into it and how it’s put up. That way people will come away from that with basic knowledge on how to set it up on their own flash briefing.Teri will also give several other talks.Voice in the Longevity Economy: TeriDifferent companies are jumping into the aging in place sector. Voice is going to have an incredible impact in this space.A voice assistant can act as a care aid for a senior living at home. It can provide medication reminders, reminders of appointments, check on how they are doing, and generally monitor their health.Teri believes we are heading towards a more decentralized healthcare system which will allow seniors to bring healthcare into their homes and consequently take pressure off of the healthcare system and overworked health workers.Voice Summit Speakers on Voice Technology Use Among Seniors: PeteThere will be a lot of brilliant speakers, organizations and healthcare industry strategists at the summit.Voice Technology Predictions: PeteHe predicts that in a year from now, the monetization models for developers are going to open up and bring a lot more independent developers into the voice space. It’s already happening and the ones who are doing it will be highlighted at the Voice Summit 2019.Voice Technology Predictions: TeriTeri is very excited about the developments related to healthcare and thinks that the recent HIPAA Compliance that was announced by Amazon is a game changer. That means that voice devices can be used as medical devices that can capture, provide and store personal health information.The whole idea of vocal biomarkers (voice as a vital sign) is incredible and Teri predicts that we will start seeing some amazing applications in the near future.List of resources mentioned in this episodeInside Voice PodcastFlash Briefing FormulaThe Voice Summit 2019Other Useful resources:Voice in Canada: The Flash BriefingComplete List of Alexa CommandsReviews of top Alexa Skills in CanadaAlexa-Enabled and Controlled Devices in CanadaTeri Fisher on TwitterAlexa in Canada on TwitterAlexa in Canada Facebook PageAlexa in Canada Community Group on FacebookAlexa in Canada on InstagramPlease leave a review on iTunesShopping on Amazon.caThe Voice Summit 2019use promo code TF270 for 15% off See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

What if you went to be a jock and woke up a maths genius? How can our brains visualise complicated mathematics? We also find out about the newest element in the periodic table!

Daniel & Ben talk with Raphael Dagold, author of the poetry collection "Bastard Heart." Some of the poems in the collection date back two decades. He talks about the patience he endured in all the years it took to publish this book, and he never once thought of giving up. For today's Poem of the Week, Raphael Dagold reads "New Elements" from his collection "Bastard Heart." In today's Poetic License, Antonina Parris-Yarbrough reads "Prus, The Doll, and the Internet," which reflects on the impatience we often feel when confronted with a long, difficult book that we know is going to take a long time to read.

According to The Design Council, six 8-studded Lego blocks can be put into over 900 million different combinations.  The core of the issue is this:  when you tell most people to 'be creative' on demand, they'll freeze. When you give them 3 crayons, 6 legos, or 17 syllables, they'll make something interesting.   They'll learn, they'll think deeply, they'll get creative.This concept has been employed by playwrights, computer programers, architects, and CEOs.  It's worth looking at in detail. One feature of my work that I'm going to explore more is the concept of 'creative constraints'.  It's been a big but unspoken part of a lot of work that I do, including the six sounds project.  In the six sounds projects, participants get a short tutorial on audio editing, and then have to create a one minute story using six sounds (phone ring, engine, heart beat, match strike, splash, crickets). It's been a popular activity for ISTE, NJAET, and classrooms around the world.  I've heard comedies, dramas, sci-fi..and quite a few camping stories.  This goal of this isn't just to teach audio editing--but the power or remix, the power of people to take the same group of items and synthesize them into new kinds of creative blends.I've experienced this myself and used it in my teaching. However, I've only recently focused on the research behind this phenomenon--'creative constraints'The concept of creative constraints is that creativity and innovation are fostered not by complete freedom but by limits.In my research on creative constraints I've come across examples from poetry (Lehrer, 2011), computer engineering (Mayer), management, architecture (Sturt, 2013), and improvisational comedy (May, 2013).  It's also one of the fundamental principles of game design (see Salen and Zimmerman's seminal work The Rules of Play--the title tells the story).  Any time a concept is useful to playwrights, computer programmers, and CEOs, it should be taken note of.When people work within restrictions, they test boundaries, challenge assumptions, and innovate with a set of resources. One recent example of this in my work was when I was with a group of English teachers in Massachusetts.  They were struggling with teaching The Odyssey.  Kids were frustrated with the language and lost with the plot.  The textbook's emphasis on the historic background was not helping matters.   So, we brainstormed on the 'big ideas' of The Odyssey.   What ideas, language, knowledge and skills do you want kids to have from this?   We came up with the concept of a hero's exciting and serendipitous journey and the use, beauty and power of epic similes (similes and metaphor are some of the original remixes, IMHO).  We came up with the recipe for the 3-Minute Epic.The 3-Minute Epic employs filmmaking, remix, and creative constraints to engage students in these ‘big ideas’ of epic poetry.***********In the Three-Minute Epic students must create an adventure story with a set of ‘items’—particular images, sounds, and epic similes from The Odyssey. This can be a model for working with other literature or history topics.  They can use a variety of technology--from PowerPoint, Photostory, iMovie, or Final Cut Pro. However, sophisticated editing and technical skills are not one of our goals, so I would keep this as simple as possible (hint, PowerPoint).For Students:For this project you will create a three-minute digital story using existing language and media. It should be an adventure of a 'hero'. It is up to you to determine, and eventually explain, what is adventurous and heroic about your story.Your final project should have images, narration, and sound effects; music is optional.In your story, you need to use the following similes from the Odyssey. ( What kinds of experiences can these descriptions apply to?):...like some animal surrounded, dreading the gangs of hunters closing their cunning ring around him for the finish......like some lion of the wilderness that stalks about exulting in his strength and defying both wind and rain; his eyes glare as he prowls in quest of oxen, sheep, or deer, for he is famished, and will dare break even into a well fenced homestead......like an octopus, when you drag one from his chamber, comes up with suckers full of tiny stones......like a judge at the end of a day at court, who’s settled the countless suits of brash young claimants, rises, the day’s work done, and turns home for supper...You need to use the following images in your story:Boathttp://www.dragonflyranch.com/images/indexpicts/Boat-sunset.jpgStriking a Matchhttp://www.bushwhacker.ca/match.jpgYou need to use the following sound effects in your story:Beating Hearthttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8tss6YIo6YvNTU5YTM1YjktYzA0OC00MmI1LTkzN2MtNTc1ZjM1YmI1NGZh/edit?usp=sharingChirping Cricketshttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8tss6YIo6YvN2M5Nzc1MzEtYWU2Ny00YTljLTk4MWMtODQ1MzdkZDFlMmQx/edit?usp=sharingRulesIt must be between 2 and 3 minutesThere has to be a story with a beginning, plot, and conclusion (extra credit for starting "In Medias Res")You can cross genres and mix your epic with true life, drama, modern, comedy, detective, romance, action, fantasy, horror, scifi; the setting can be contemporary, historic, fantastic, etc.No profanity or use of personal informationIt can have characters and a narrator, just characters, or just a narrator.You can add images, sound effects, and narration, but you must use the quotes and media aboveYou can get pictures from the Web or use original images (e.g. a close up of a group member as the hero/villain)AssessmentStory is between 2-3 minutes (pass/fail)25% Plot Elements--story is entertaining and coherent with an engaging beginning, action throughout, and a clear conclusion.25% Mix--narration and media elements complement each other; audio is clear and read with appropriate tone20% Required Elements--all required media and quotes are used appropriately to tell a story; similes compare different things20% New Elements--new images, sound effects and music advance the story10% Hero and Adventure--each member of the group can explain why the main character is a hero and why the story is an adventure (odyssey, epic, etc.)References on Creative ContraintsLenrer, J.

Professor Martyn Poliakoff gets excited about two new elements.

The process of mitosis involves a comprehensive reorganization of the cell: chromosomes condense, the nuclear envelope breaks down, the mitotic spindle is assembled, cells round up and release their ties to the substrate and so on and so forth. This reorganization is triggered by the activation of a protein kinase called Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 1 (CDK1). The end of mitosis is marked by the proteolysis of the cyclin subunit of CDK1, which terminates kinase activity. At this point, the phosphate moieties that altered the properties of hundreds of proteins to bring about the cellular reorganization are removed by protein phosphatases. We recently began to pay attention to the control of these protein phosphatases, conscious that it was likely that they were shut off as cells enter mitosis, and reactivated when mitosis is complete, allowing return to interphase. It is difficult to see how proteins could be fully phosphorylated if both kinases and phosphatases were simultaneously active (much as filling a wash basin requires not only turning on the water taps, but also putting in the plug). It emerged that at least one protein phosphatase, PP2A-B55, was shut off in mitosis. Depletion of this particular form of PP2A accelerated entry into mitosis, and blocked exit from mitosis. We have discovered how this phosphatase is regulated. It entails binding a small inhibitor protein (endosulfine or ARPP-19) that is phosphorylated by a protein kinase called Greatwall that is itself a substrate of CDK1. Failure to inhibit PP2A-B55 causes arrest of the cell cycle in G2 phase. I will explain how we found this out, and discuss the role of this particular control mechanism in the control of mitosis. The “switches and latches” of my title refers to our still rather poor understanding of exactly how the timing of entry into mitosis is controlled, together with the realization that the Greatwall- Endosulfine circuit is not only required for entering mitosis, but also for staying there. Recent evidence from budding yeast suggests that the same control module is involved in controlling the switch into quiescence when the yeast are starving, and not in the normal control of cell division.
