Some useful Tips On Baking
Some useful Tips On Baking
It seems like it is a baking month at Food Tribune. We are back with another blog about baking, and it is super useful. Read below!
Baking a cake, bread, and a selection of biscuits can bring about a great sense of achievement, but at the same time, it is essential to do it with perfection. Most of us who occasionally bake often find it difficult to bake a perfect cake. Having that professional touch cant be achieved easily unless you keep in mind some baking secrets.
1. Balanced ingredients
Well-balanced ingredients are the key to baking. For example, if you have too much fat in proportion to flour, your cake will turn out to be very heavy and greasy, the biscuits might not be crisp and spread on the baking dish. On the other hand, too little fat can make the cake dry and unappetizing, unless eaten fresh from the oven. As for sugar, it lightens the heaviness in cakes; if less sugar is used, the cake will be too heavy to consume. For binding the ingredients together, the right proportion of eggs should be added.
2. Best method
Dont treat the cakes equally. Selecting a method meant for the kind of cake you are baking is extremely important. For example, if the whisking method is used for fruit cakes, it will not be suitable to acquire that traditional fruit-cake texture; therefore, the rub-in way is more convenient. If you want to get a light sponge, whisking will be the best method as it gives a softer texture to the cakes. It varies from one recipe to another, whether you cream the fat and sugar or whisk the eggs and sugar.
3. Temperature and timing
Individual ovens vary greatly, and the suggested temperature in recipes is based on average ranges only. Always consult the instruction card or booklet the first time you bake a particular type of cake. Quick baking will make the cake over brown and raw from the center, whereas slow

A blog (a truncation of the expression "weblog") is a discussion or informational website published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries ("posts"). Posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order, so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web page. Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic. In the 2010s, "multi-author blogs" (MABs) have developed, with posts written by large numbers of authors and sometimes professionally edited. MABs from newspapers, other media outlets, universities, think tanks, advocacy groups, and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog traffic. The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging" systems helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news media. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning "to maintain or add content to a blog".

Hey everybody, I just thought I would take a quick moment to report so this is the somewhat life of an
esthetician
who is built and busy and a lot of you out there might be thinking, I want to be really busy, I want lots clients, I have been at work since I probably started at about nine and started my first client at ten then was built back to back then a small lunch, thats what I am doing but when you are an esthetician, you have to work, you dont get paid for vacation time or sick time.
I finally got home after my last client, I was probably done by seven and I usually see people either on the spa that are on the half an hour and so it was really a blessed day, everyone was happy and I am really blessed to have clients that do come back and refer but right now, I am super tired and I am spending this time right now with my baby.
This is some of the quality time, these are some of the sacrifices as a working mom, as a single mom you make to build your business and your clientele and so in my upcoming videos, I will be discussing different streams of income that can also you as an esthetician, can I finish my video, alright. I just feel like being an esthetician is so liberating, helping people, making them feel better about their skin, getting to know people, I have got clients that come to me, that amazes me still like I am seeing physician, doctors, they would just be my doctor but they come to me for my services because I can provide something for them that they cant do themselves so that makes me feel really happy and good about myself and good about the career that I chose.

She offers several distinct plans both individual and corporate, with each plan priced accordingly to the client's level of services.

Teaching individuals to find their inner superhero selves is priceless both on and off a yoga mat, she says.

Since the onset of COVID-19, contract staffing has been the primary solution to headcount challenges throughout the data privacy, e-discovery, and cybersecurity ecosystem. TRUs 2020 analysis found that 56% of all placements were contract hires. As noted in TRUs Legaltech News article 
The 2020 Legal Technology Job Market Year in Review
, COVID was simply fuel on an already burning fire as both employers and employees voiced a preference for contract lifestyle. This pattern continued into the first week of 2021 as two-thirds of TRUs initial placements were in contract positions. What changed in late Q4 2020 and early Q1 2021 is the speed at which decisions are being madewith yearly budgets approved and goals set, top talent is being secured faster than TRU has ever witnessed.
Contract staffing dipped slightly to about 50% of placements in January, down from a pandemic high of 65%. However, this is not because contract staffing is slowing down; rather, direct hiring is ticking back up rapidly as confidence in the economy improves while contract offerings continue to increase at a steady rate. The January U.S. jobs reportechoed this trendshowing that last month, employment in professional and business services rose by 97,000, with 81,000 of those gains (84%) coming from contract staffing services.
One pandemic trend that is not changing yet: 90% of TRUs total January placements were remote. Seventy-three percent of all placements in 2020 were remote. Hiring managers continue to find enormous benefit in not just the safety that remote positions offer but in the access to top-tier talent across the country at competitive compensation gained from opening positions without regard to geography. Talent is also largely enamored with remote work for safety reasons but also for quality-of-life benefits ranging from living outside major cities for reduced cost of living to the elimination of the daily commute. While a return to the office is inevitable for some, TRU expects employers and talent alike to embrace working from home and flexibility in hybrid options indefinitely. We have been shocked by how many of our law firm clients will not be expecting a full return to the office for staff.
Bravo.

Extract from Jared Coseglias article The 2020 Legal Technology Job Market Year in Review
The COVID-19 pandemic radically altered the landscape of the legal technology job market, but not entirely in unanticipated ways. TRUs 2019 Year in Review hinged on the observation that 2019s legal technology job market trends were continuations and culminations of steadily emerging annual patterns. These trends, specifically remote/work-from-home and contract workforce augmentation, as well as the converging of disciplines, have been hyper-accelerated this year to the point of incredulity.
Other unforeseen new realities have also developed as direct results of our work-from-home containment in 2020, some of which have irrevocably changed hiring practices and industry segmentation growth potential. Like the stock market of 2020, some sectors in the legal technology job market soared with new opportunities while other areas halted, right-sized, RIFd, and now aim to rebuild, re-establish buy-in, and re-staff.

The challenge
Four leading construction industry SaaS providersiSqFt, CMD, BidClerk and Construction Datawere merging to create one company, leveraging the unique strengths of each to deliver an unmatched network for general contractors, subcontractors and building product manufacturers.
Our challenge was to help the new entity figure out who and what it washonoring the distinct cultures, strengths and customers of its legacy brandsand to bring that story to life, starting with a unifying name and brand identity.
Our insight
Our discovery effort was considerable, including stakeholder interviews at every company, on every level, and customer and prospect interviews across multiple organizations. We started as consultants, but quickly became confidantsacting as architects of the new brand. As such, we were able to hear and discern things from conversations between the key stakeholders at each organization and their customers that they couldnt, revealing disconnected cultures and communications around the merger.
Armed with these insights, we conducted a gap analysis that allowed every stakeholder to understand where the new company was, where it wanted to go and exactly what was needed to get there. This proved to be the missing linkour ability to provide the consultative partnership and strategic foundation for how the new company would ultimately connect the dots, bringing people and technology and cultures together to move the company forward.

Is Construction in Florida Finally Starting to Turn the Corner?
Is Construction in Florida Finally Starting to Turn the Corner?
October 25, 2012
News

After several long years of a battered construction economy in Florida, most contractors with whom Ive spoken recently have expressed improvement in their work loads and some have even developed that long sought after backlog.A recent report supports those positive sentiments.In a report by BidClerk, it was announced that construction in Florida major-metro markets increased 9.6% from last year in a year-over-year analysis.BidClerk found private construction bidding increased 19% from this time last year, whereas public construction bidding increased only 4.3%.The public construction numbers arent as discouraging as they may appear at first blush because of the current trend towards public/private partnerships (P3s).Public construction is predictably down because of the lack of public funds, but private enterprise is coming to the rescue in the push towards P3s.The shift from traditional public delivery methods to a new, thus far unfamiliar model takes time.But it is clearly underway, as you can tell from my previous posts on this topic, and it is just a matter of time before public construction increases using the P3 model.Therefore, BidClerks report bodes very well for both private and public sectors of construction.Its time to dust off that rolodex and start hitting the streets.The work is there for the taking and I suspect things are only going to get better from here.

The Presentation College womens basketball team ended its season with an 82-46 loss to Bellevue University in the opening round of the North Star Athletic Association Tournament Tuesday in Bellevue, Neb. Presentation ends the year with a 3-25 overall record, and a 1-13 mark in the NSAA.
The Saints dug themselves an early 28-12 first quarter deficit. They began finding the range in the second quarter, out-scoring the Bruins 15-13 to trail 41-27 at the half. Jada Campbell, who led the Saints with 16 points, scored seven in the first half. Campbell was the only player for Presentation to score in double figures.
Bellevue quickly gained separation in the second half via the 3-pointer. The Bruins hit three in the third quarter and hit eight overall. The Saints managed just two makes from behind the arc on 18 attempts. Presentation did win the battle on the boards, out-rebounding Bellevue 43-37. Campbell matched her points total by hauling down 16 rebounds for a double-double. Bellevue, however, was able to take care of the basketball committing 11 turnovers while Presentation turned it over 22 times.

After scoring just 73 points and shooting under 40 percent in the blowout loss to Morningside on Saturday, the Hastings College mens basketball team got back on track Tuesday.
The Broncos offense was a well-oiled machine, taking smart shots, making extra passes and dazzling fans with some exciting dunks. The offensive display helped Hastings hold off Bellevue University for a 90-80 victory.
(Tuesday) our offensive execution was really, really good, Hastings head coach Bill Gavers said. We had several shots at the basket, off back screens, post touches, drives, all because the ball was moving. It wasnt sticking.
Hastings shot an outstanding 66.7 percent (18-for-27) from the floor in the first half and didnt slow down much in the second half, finishing 34-for-57 (59.6 percent) for the game.
Five Broncos scored double digit points. Kevin Miller led the way with 21 points, Bart Hiscock had 17, Sandy Creek graduate Brendan Lipovsky tallied 16, Shane Chamberlain added 13, and Zach Kitten  a St. Cecilia grad  had 10 points.
Thats how its supposed to be played, five guys working as one, the ball moves and everybody touches it, Gavers said. Two guys who didnt necessarily score much but helped the offense because of their cutting and moving the ball were (Logan) Cale and (Eli) Hunter. They really understand motion offense, finishing cuts, screening and delivering the ball. I was pleased with that.
The Broncos, ranked 19th in the NAIA, took a 12-point lead into halftime and added to it early in the second half. After the Bruins scored the first basket out of the break, Hastings went on a 15-6 run to take the largest lead of the game at 61-42.
Bellevue shot just 38 percent in the opening 20 minutes, but the athletic Bruins turned it on in the final 15 minutes. Bellevue shot 51.3 percent in the second half and slowly chipped away at the Bronco lead.
We talk about (playing) 40 minutes and urgency for 40 minutes, and if you lapse just a little bit, the opponent can make you pay, Gavers said. Bellevue is pretty good. Theyre athletic and they can make you pay. We would have like to clean up our finish there.
The Bruins cut the deficit to 80-71 with 5 minutes, 11 seconds remaining on a 3-pointer from Justin Bessard. Both teams traded baskets as the lead went from 11 to nine points four times in the final 5 minutes.
Bellevue got as close as eight points, but the Bruins could not get a stop against the Bronco offense. A pair of free throws from Eli Hunter sealed the 10-point victory.
Hastings was bit by Morningsides 3-point shooting on Saturday, but Tuesday it was the Broncos turn. Hastings finished 11-for-21 from beyond the arc, with three of those treys coming from Chamberlain and Miller.
Bronco fans were brought to their feet on numerous occasions by the dunking display of Lipovsky. Just over a minute into the second half, Miller brought the ball down the court in transition, leaped into the lane and underhanded the ball to Lipovsky for the alley-oop jam.
Later in the second half, the former Cougar flew into the lane and snatched a missed 3-pointer midair and slammed it with two hands.
Lipovsky was huge, and for him, it was his mindset. Weve been trying to get him to go to the offensive glass all year, Gavers said. He was aggressive (Tuesday), right fromt he get-go. He got a followup dunk by going to the boards, he got a dunk because he ran hard in transition.
But Brendan, his scoring for us and his aggressiveness at the rim was really, really critical. We need that out of him. For us to be a championship-level team, we have to have that out of him.
Hiscock and Lipovsky both recorded double-doubles in the game with 12 and 11 rebounds, respectively. In addition to being the Broncos leading scorer, Miller also led HC with five assists while Lipovsky had four.
The Bruins also had five scorers reach double digit point totals, led by 15 from Jaron Dickson.
Hastings College will be back on the road Saturaday for a matchup with NAIA No. 21 Dordt College. Gavers said the Defenders play physical, just like Morninside, so the Broncos are going to have to be ready for an intense 40 minutes of basketball.

Concordia, which was playing in its first regional final, will now play in its first College World Series.
Concordia (42-10) trailed 4-1 early, then 5-3 when Keaton Candor led off the eighth with a home run. Three batters later, Jakob Faulk gave the Bulldogs their first lead with a two-run blast, and Teyt Johnson made it back-to-back with a homer to right field.
Five Concordia relievers combined to limit the Bruins to just one run on six hits over the final 5 2/3 innings. Nathan Buckallew (4-0) earned the win.
Concordia, which has hit 89 homers this year, got three hits from Candor, and Faulk was 2-for-4 with four RBIs.
Concordia added to its school record for wins (42).
Bellevue (41-18) defeated Concordia on Tuesday before the Bulldogs won their next three games, including two against the Bruins.

Hi EBean-ie!
I'd also be curious to see the contents of that interview! It's rare that you & I get to mull over the same topic - but education is definitely the place we have the same philosophy & level of interest! :-) You've got my attention back on the boards with that post!!! (Despite my loony 40hr work week in the dusty abyss known as the back corner desk of the Web Development office!) :-)
As an admittedly nerdy college student, user of blackboard (and its competitors), and person very much involved in IT and 508 compliance in education -- my regret would be that I wasn't on top of things back in the fall to post a question to Mr. Chasen!
Sibling love :-*,
~Suzy G.B. :-)
~ I hope someone can find the transcript somewhere in fooldom for us! Many expressions of thanks to the fool who helps EBean & I on this information scavenger hunt!

satisfaction
with the system remains high, according to the LMS review website.
The task force is working with other vendors to schedule demonstrations to the campus, according to the LMS review website. Vendors to give presentations are Blackboard Learn, Canvas and Brightspace.
In May or June, well wrap up our findings, make recommendations and move forward with a communication plan to campus that will either reiterate our staying on with Blackboard, if thats the choice of the committee, or pursuing an alternative path, Parks said.
Parks said the university is working to approve a one-year extension on the current Blackboard contract to allow for enough runway if another system is chosen.
The demonstrations of the different systems will be held virtually and will be recorded so everyone has a chance to view them, said Jason Rhode, Executive Director at the Center for Innovative Teaching and Learning, at the Faculty Senate meeting.
We really want as wide a swath of input from the campus community as possible, so we want to hear from students, Rhode said.
Fall 2020 survey on teaching with technology
A survey including faculty, teaching staff and graduate teaching assistants

conducted during the fall while teaching with technology during the pandemic

was also shared at Wednesdays Faculty Senate meeting.
A total of 2,420 individuals were invited to participate in the survey and 359 responded, according to
survey data
.
Findings of the survey showed that 71.6% of respondents felt they were able to engage with students through technology for the semester, whereas 28% of respondents didnt.
The survey also found that of the 359 respondents, 217 used Blackboard Collaborate for synchronous classes, 151 used Zoom, 76 used Microsoft Teams, nine used Adobe Connect and 18 used none.
As we got through the fall, we really wanted to just get a pulse of where our faculty, instructors and really anyone that was teaching a course in the fall on where they were at, and in particular, trying to get a sense of their support needs, Rhode said.

Virtual Classroom for seminars and groupwork: Blackboard Collaborate
Contact us
Virtual Classroom for seminars and groupwork: Blackboard Collaborate
Find out how to use the Virtual Classroom (Blackboard Collaborate) for  teaching and group work.
Why use the Virtual Classroom?
You can use the Virtual Classroom to host and record interactive teaching sessions or group meetings digitally. The tool can be used for digital seminars and tutorials where staff and students can participate and interact.  It can also be used for less formal meetings.
What do you need?
You need a web browser, high speed internet, headphones or speakers and if you plan on using audio and video during the session, you'll need a microphone and/or a webcam.
How do I access the Virtual Classroom?
You can create Collaborate session directly in Learn. Add Blackboard Collaborate Ultra from Tools > More Tools in the top menu, or Courses Tool in the left-hand menu. Find out more about creating and managing sessions
When using Collaborate in a Learn course there is no need to invite and add students to sessions, course members are added automatically. This is the only secure route into sessions. Find more information on
how to keep your Collaborate sessions secure
.
You can invite guests to the session via a web link that can be easily shared on email.
Collaborate is also available on mobile devices. You can download the Blackboard or Blackboard Instructor app to access your session from a phone or tablet device. Find out more about accessing on mobile devices
Students and staff can create their own Blackboard Collaborate sessions directly in the Collaborate channel in MyEd Find out more about using Collaborate via MyEd
What can you do in the Virtual Classroom?
Collaborate is a virtual classroom and provides tools to help you engage with, and manage, a taught class.
You can communicate by audio, video,  and/or text chat.
You don't need to use all of these. You may opt not to use video and stick to audio. In some cases you may opt to only use chat (and some participants who don't have a microphone, or are in a noisy environment, may prefer to stick to chat).
You can upload and display a PowerPoint presentation.
There is an interactive whiteboard.
You can share applications from your desktop.
You can record sessions and share in Learn to allow students to review, including those who couldn't attend the live session.
Some tips for using Virtual Classroom for seminars/lectures/tutorials:
Start 15 minutes early. People need time to check mics and connections.
Advise participants to mute their microphone when not speaking. If everyone has their microphones on at the same time background noise can interrupt the session. Note that as a teacher (moderator) you can mute student's mics if things get overly noisy.
Setting clear etiquette for engagement at the start of a session is important (as you might in a physical classroom). For example, ask students to use the "raise your hand" function before jumping in to speak. Small things like this can really help a session run smoothly.
Please note that if you plan to have more than 250 attendees, you should
contact us in advance
. If you are planning a large class then there may be better way of doing it - for example pre-recording your presentation in Media Hopper Create, or even using last year's lecture if you have one (always making sure that you have a way to actively engage with students, even asynchronously. For example set up a discussion forum in Learn so that students can ask questions). Remember, this is contingency for periods of restricted access to campus , so it doesn't have to be perfect.
Remember that students can create their own sessions in Collaborate through MyEd If, for example, they want to organise their own study groups you don't always have to create the session for them.

/PRNewswire/ --Blackboard announced today that Adamson University in
the Philippines
has selected Blackboard Learn Ultra as its new learning management system (LMS). The university selected Learn Ultra following an extensive review of the most relevant LMS in the market.
More
To date, Adamson University has operated on an in-house LMS and whilst this served its purpose initially, the university's ten colleges have ultimately outgrown the legacy platform and its features. With the demand to provide a flexible and efficient online learning experience for its students, the university recognised the value in the ability to leverage the dynamic and responsive features of a cloud-based LMS solution. These features include the compatibility with an outcomes-based education, seamless integration with third-party academic applications and the ability to support the university's goals for transparency and management of learner progress, performance and assessment.
"We compared the leading LMS solutions available and Blackboard immediately stood out," said Fr. Marcelo Manintim CM, President of Adamson University. "The simple yet powerful features and ease of system integration weren't the only factors considered by the university. Also attractive was engaging a partner who could offer true local support and Blackboard ticked this box among others. Their solution allows us to give our students an unparalleled learning experience that aligns with our institution's mission in providing a holistic education to our community."
"Our new partnership with Adamson University further demonstrates our position as the market leader in providing a best-in-class cloud-based LMS that helps institutions drive and achieve student and institutional success," said
Philip Murray
, Regional Vice President of
Asia
at Blackboard. "We are extremely pleased to partner with the university and look forward to providing a digital foundation that will allow them to grow through innovation today and into the future."

Adamson University Selects Blackboard Learn Ultra to Drive Student and Institutional Success

There are some exciting  changes coming to Blackboard for 2018/19 academic year such as:
Course Creation and Automated Template Application
System Home Page Redesign and Responsive Theme
Summer Upgrade
Course Creation and Automated Template Application
Background
The Blackboard course creation route has remained largely unchanged for a number of years. Although it has worked well, it is fairly inefficient and is not robust enough to support future developments and tighter integration with SITS.
Currently, apart from student enrolments, there is a lack of two-way communication between SITS and Blackboard for our module deliveries.  All modules created in SITS (via a MAV) and completed with the correct data are automatically created in Blackboard however if the course should subsequently be removed from SITS then this is not reflected on Blackboard which has caused issues of incorrect sites being used.
Students no longer associated with the MAV are not automatically removed from the Blackboard site.
To begin working on a site a tutor needs to select a course from within Blackboard (this relies on the module site creation process above), redesign or apply the correct template and, if required, copy any existing materials across from the previous instance of the course manually.
Proposed Development
Improve and increase updates in both frequency and capability of enrolments and course creation
Simplify the route to consistent Blackboard sites
Reduce the risk of incorrect Blackboard site selection
Limit the number of sites created to only the ones which are actually required
Establish the foundation for an enhanced dynamic link between SITS and Blackboard
Create more accurate SITS records
Once in place, Blackboard sites will only be created when the lead tutor is assigned to the MAV within SITS, this is critical as Blackboard sites will not be created without this data.  Once the data has been entered on the MAV in SITS the Module Blackboard sites will be available to a tutor within a few hours.  Requests for non-mod
