This document discusses various types of vectors used for cloning, including bacteriophage vectors, plasmid vectors, cosmid vectors, bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs), yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs), and shuttle vectors. Key points include:
- Bacteriophage derivatives like lambda phage are suitable for cloning large eukaryotic DNA due to abilities like packaging millions of clones and size selection of DNA.
- Phage-based vectors can be insertional, containing a single cloning site, or replacement vectors with two cloning sites allowing DNA substitution.
- Cosmids are hybrid phage-plasmid vectors that can package DNA up to 48 kb into phage particles.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

4. PPTTipsforEducationPresentations
Educators... It's that time of year again. Some of us are already back in
school while the rest of us are preparing for the start of a new school
year. New educators are busy preparing or creating their content while
more experienced educators are dusting off and upgrading theirs. In
many instances, this content could include PowerPoint presentations.
Now it's time to ask ourselves the tough question- are my PowerPoint's
the great visual support and tool they really need to be for others to
"get the message" of the content, or will they- " just do"?
5. PPTTipsforEducationPresentations
When I ask myself that question, I think of it this way... when I'm sitting
at the doctor's office waiting for my appointment, I usually pick up a
magazine to read. I'm sure that many of us do the same thing. I find
that I quickly thumb through the issue looking for something interesting
only to discover that I read the same magazine the last time I was there.
Then the hunt begins... I start "pawing" through all the remaining
magazines in search of something, new, different and captivating to read.
Usually I wind up with a stack of several National Geographic magazines.
I'll start flipping through one until I realize that I've seen this one before...
But that's OK because the visuals are so awesome that I don't mind
looking at them again. That's how PowerPoint presentations should be
viewed.
6. Before you use the same PowerPoint's you've used the last few years,
take a realistic look at your visual support. Do they stand the test of time
from when you first designed them, or do they look old and outdated?
If your answer is... they're just as good today as they were five years ago,
then you're all set and you don't need to read this ebook any further.
If you think it's time for an update, then you need to CONSIDER using
approaches, design techniques and concepts found in this ebook that
might help you design improved visuals.
Remember, when it comes to PowerPoint, just because you can do it,
doesn't mean you should! All the slides you design should be purposeful!
PPTTipsforEducationPresentations
7. When I design my slides, these are ten design techniques, approaches or
concepts I consider when incorporating images:
Use full bleed images
Choose / create images that will interest the audience
Look and re-create current print and television designs
Turn text into graphics / images
Make visuals "attention getting"
Stay away from poor clip art
Make slides that are aesthetically pleasing
Consider using layout techniques
Make visuals memorable
And most of all... Think like a designer
PPTTipsforEducationPresentations
8. Be on the lookout for additional ebooks dealing with other design
considerations when reworking PowerPoint presentations. Future ebooks
will deal with the topics of: typography, color, animation/transitions,
data, autoshapes and multimedia.

11. The JPEG is at its best on photographs and
paintings of realistic scenes with smooth
variations of tone and color.
GIFs are suitable for sharp-edged line art
(such as logos) with a limited number of
colors.
PNG’s should be used on photos where
some transparency is required. Because
of this transparency feature, it’s a good
replacement for GIF’s.
12. 1024 X 768
Aesthetically speaking… when you have to alter an
image, making a larger image smaller is easier than
making a smaller image larger. The key to success is
starting with more image information than you need.
13. What could happen when making smaller images larger…
Blurred Pixelated
14. 104 DPI
PC screen resolutions are 72 DPI (Dots Per Inch).
MAC screen resolutions are 96 DPI.
104 DPI for an image gives you info to work with.
DPI’s of an image that are more than 104 just
increases the final file size of the PPT, not improve
picture quality.
16. Jing… A FREE Screen Capture program from TechSmith
17. There is an alternative to
JING built right into PPT called
“Screenshot”. “Screenshot” is
found on the INSERT ribbon
and allows you to choose the
screenshot you want to insert
on your slide. Once inserted,
you can enhance the image
just like any other picture.
18. 3 Image manipulation shortcuts…
(with image selected)
Hold down “SHIFT” and drag from bottom right corner (never from
sides or bottom) towards upper left corner… resizes proportionally
Hold down “CTRL” + “SHIFT” and drag from bottom right corner
towards upper left corner… resizes proportionally to center
Select “CROP” tool from Image format ribbon…
selection dots change to lines. Moving lines removes
a portion of the image from view, not from the image.
This can be reversed if you change your mind!
19. Crop to Shape: This will
crop the selected picture
into the shape you have
chosen. Just click away
from the selected shape
once you are done to
deselect it.
20. A full bleed image extends or "bleeds" over the edges of a page.
A full-bleed image does not show borders or white space. Be sure
to keep important items in your photo away from these edges.
21. What are “Postage Stamp” images?
Postage stamp images are smaller
images that don’t entirely “fill up”
the entire slide. Their name comes
from the idea that when compared
to the size of the slide, it resembles
a postage stamp.
23. Set Transparent Color
Sometimes an image isn’t on the
same color background you want to
use as your slide. By using the
“Set Transparent Color” tool, there’s a
good chance you can eliminate all of
the color so the object will look like it
belongs on the background color you
want to use. With the image selected,
choose the format ribbon, color and the
tool will be at the bottom of the menu.
click on the color you want to remove and
POOF--- gone.
24. Remove Background: is an
option that lets you
remove the background
from an inserted picture.
This is great if you want to
remove a sky, a wall, any
backdrop or something else
in a photograph so that the
slide background shows
through.
25. Although it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles like
Photoshop… chances are it will do much of what you
need to do when enhancing or altering images.
Besides that… you can access it online and it’s FREE!!!

27. Here, a rectangle has been divided horizontally and
vertically by four lines. Photographers and
cinematographers have dubbed the intersections of
those lines power points, shown by the red circles
here. The rule of thirds states that the centers of
interest for any rectangle lie somewhere along those
lines / intersections.
The Rule of Thirds
28. Rulers in PowerPoint are typically located on the top
and left parts of the active slide, and by default might
not be visible at all. It’s a great idea to make them
visible because not only do they provide you with a
visual cue about where you are placing slide objects.
29. Like rulers, guides in PowerPoint allow you to
position and snap your slide objects in place. When
you enable guides you see one horizontal and one
vertical guide. Grid lines allow you to position and
snap slide objects uniformly on a single slide, or
even across successive slides using the Snap to Grid
option.
32. Shadow: Applies a shadow to the selected picture.
PowerPoint provides three types of shadows: Outer,
Inner, and Perspective. You can apply any of these,
or customize them to meet your requirements.
33.
34. Reflection: Adds a reflection to the selected picture,
and you can choose from several reflection styles.
Remember, you should not use shadow and reflection
for the same picture.
35.
36. Glow: Provides a hazed, blurred color perimeter
outside the Picture area. PowerPoint provides several
glow variations; the glow colors are based on the
theme colors, although you can also choose any
other color.
37.
38. Soft Edges: This effect makes the picture edges
feathered, almost like a moth-edge.
39.
40. Bevel: Applies bevel effects to the selected picture.
You can also customize the applied bevel.
41.
42. 3-D Rotation: Imparts parallel, perspective, and
oblique 3-D effects to the selected picture.
43.
44. Border: adds a line around the selected image. In
addition to colors, weight and dashes may also be
manipulated.
45. Artistic Effects: PowerPoint provides around 23 filters
as part of its new Artistic Effects option. Some of
these filters (effects) can make your pictures look like
paintings or sketches, and others can change the
texture of your pictures.
46. Color: You can see that the Color drop-down gallery
sports three sections: Color Saturation, Color Tone,
and Recolor which include preview thumbnails of the
selected picture variants.
47. Corrections: A picture needs to be corrected when it
is too dark or too bright -- and this can happen if the
lighting was not proper when you clicked the original
picture with your camera.
48. Quick Access Toolbar:
(QAT) contains the
Save, Undo, and Redo
icons -- but you can
use it to store many
more commands such
as… insert picture. Or
just insert your image
from the insert ribbon
onto the slide.
Inserting Images: Options 1 & 2
51. Compress Pictures: offers an image compression
utility that reduces the size of all inserted pictures in
the presentation in a single step. It does so by reducing
the picture resolution to the amount needed for the
type of output you specify (E-mail, Screen, or Print).
52. Change Picture: you realize
that you have a better
picture, or you have to
change to another picture
but with all the same
effects and animations!
You could delete the
original picture and start
all over again, or you can
change any existing picture
into another with just a
couple of clicks – retaining
all effects and animations.
53. Reset Picture: Once a
picture is inserted within
PowerPoint, any
manipulations you make to
that picture are strictly only
on the surface. The
appearance of the picture
changes on the slide, but
the unaltered picture is
stored within your
PowerPoint presentation,
then you can just reset your
picture rather than starting
all over again!
54. Photo Album: If you like to use many pictures in your
PowerPoint presentations, then you’ll be glad to know
that PowerPoint can import tens or even hundreds of
pictures into consecutive PowerPoint slides.
55. Citations…
There’s no excuse in not worrying about copyrights
these days, especially with the amount of free / low
priced visual content available copyright free. Even if
the content wasn’t free / low priced, the impact on
your reputation from violation is not something any
professional can disregard. – Indezine.com
Solution…
Option 1: cite the source of your image somewhere on
or below the image on the slide.
Option 2: have a final slide where you name the
image, the slide it’s on and the source.
