![]() U-shaped attribution assigns 80% of the credit to the interactions where your contact first interacts with your business, and then when it becomes a lead in your CRM. This model emphasizes the top-half of the funnel. ![]() No, not the heartthrob psycho-killer boyfriend drama from Netflix. The fourth attribution model to keep in mind is U-Shaped attribution. Linear attribution can be a useful baseline, especially when just starting out. This model looks at the total deal revenue, then divides the amount equally among all of the interactions that took place leading up to the deal. Last touch attribution looks closely at the value of sales calls and final touchpoints before decisions.Īfter that, we have Linear attribution. Pretty sure you’re tracking this one all on your own, but this model attributes 100% of the deal revenue to the last interaction that happened before the deal was closed. Next - shocking, I know - is Last Touch Attribution. This attribution model is helpful in figuring out which content is driving people to your site. And, honestly, ask any Bachelor fan about getting the first rose. Yes, of allll the interactions, the first one is what matters most. This model attributes 100% of the deal revenue to the first interaction that happened. The first type of attribution model is called ‘first touch attribution.’ Like the Mission Impossible films before it, Multi-touch attribution is basically Tom Cruise hanging off the sides of planes, fighting baddies around the globe, and refusing to be replaced by Jeremy Renner. So let’s get a little more granular ourselves. This is advanced marketing, right? We’re both either advanced or aspirationally advanced. You have the information you need to see exactly what happened in the customer journey, down to the granular interaction. Multi-touch attribution reporting makes it easier for marketing and sales to come together, examine closed deals, and determine the best ways to replicate success in their handoff. With a more informed budget and a proven impact in marketing, making the case for headcount is all but a sure thing.īut let’s talk real quick about reporting. It can also be a conversation about growing the team. what is not when it comes to driving revenue. These reports will make it clear what is working vs. Multi-touch attribution is the best way to start a conversation with your team about your opportunities for improving your content and process. And it helps you make smarter, more strategic decisions by understanding exactly which marketing actions drive revenue for your business. This type of reporting gives marketers credit for driving growth within their business. With the right software, multi-touch attribution allows teams to set up parameters and assign credit to various teams for a customer who is going through the buyer's journey. It tells you which interactions someone had with your brand on their journey to becoming a customer. Multi-touch attribution ties marketing actions to revenue. Ok, but with so much data to sift through, where do you start? And just so happens, 48% of salespeople are making it a priority to improve the efficiency of the sales funnel. 42% of marketers list proving ROI as one of their top marketing priorities. If these problems sound familiar, you’re not alone, friend. That way, you can try to replicate that process for your reps. to work with marketing and determine what led to the successful deals. So button down those shirt collars, cause it’s. On the floor, you’ve been hearing frustration about marketing’s lead qualification and the influx of passive leads. But, other leads that came from that same marketing campaign, weren’t so ready to buy. ![]() Your sales reps were able to prioritize active leads and personalize their sales presentations. Marketing’s just run a huge campaign, and there’s an endless stream of leads constantly being assigned to your team. What’s the ROI of this marketing campaign? ![]() Which means, much like many marketers before you, it’s now your job to answer the age old question. And the purpose of the meeting? To discuss ‘how your team positively impacted the company’s bottom line this quarter.’ the director of marketing puts time on your calendar. Traffic to your site is growing month over month, and so is your contacts database. Your lead nurturing workflows, featuring automated emails, hitting all the goals you’ve set. You’ve been creating content that’s converting leads. By all accounts, your team has exceeded expectations. You just spent the last three months pulling off one of your company’s largest marketing campaigns to-date. It’s the end of the quarter and you’re ridin’ that fresh off Summer, pumpkin-spice high.

![]() The application of Java Substring played a pivotal role in the project’s success. Additionally, by addressing these potential pitfalls, the team was able to maintain high performance while using the Java substring method. ![]() With proper exception handling, the team managed to prevent the application from crashing and ensured a smooth user experience. Here, the beginIndex is the starting point of the substring. The single parameter version of the substring method is written as substring(int beginIndex). Understanding the nuances of these syntaxes is crucial for proper string manipulation. In Java, the substring method comes with two distinct syntaxes, each serving a unique purpose. From Java 7 onward, substrings get their own character array, mitigating this issue. ![]() This can have memory implications if you retain a reference to a small substring while discarding a much larger original string. When working with substrings in Java, understand that they share the same character array with the original string until Java 7. Here, index 10 is outside the bounds of the string, leading to an exception.Īlways ensure the indices are within the string's length to avoid such pitfalls.

This is important for gelation properties of gelatin. ![]() Presence of proline restricts the conformation. ![]() Glycine is responsible for close packing of the chains. Hydrolyzed collagen contains 19 amino acids, predominantly glycine (Gly) 26–34%, proline (Pro) 10–18%, and hydroxyproline (Hyp) 7–15%, which together represent around 50% of the total amino acid content. The amino acid content of hydrolyzed collagen is the same as collagen. When dry, gelatin consists of 98–99% protein, but it is not a nutritionally complete protein since it is missing tryptophan and is deficient in isoleucine, threonine, and methionine. For example, gelatin derived from fish has a lower melting and gelation point than gelatin derived from beef or pork. Gelatins have diverse melting points and gelation temperatures, depending on the source. Gelatin's strength (but not viscosity) declines if it is subjected to temperatures above 100 ☌ (212 ☏), or if it is held at temperatures near 100 ☌ for an extended period of time. Commercial gelatin will have a gel strength of around 90 to 300 grams Bloom using the Bloom test of gel strength. The viscosity of the gelatin-water mixture is greatest when the gelatin concentration is high and the mixture is kept cool at about 4 ☌ (39 ☏). The upper melting point of gelatin is below human body temperature, a factor that is important for mouthfeel of foods produced with gelatin. The gel formed by gelatin can be melted by reheating, and it has an increasing viscosity under stress ( thixotropic). Gelatin absorbs 5–10 times its weight in water to form a gel. Polar solvents like hot water, glycerol, and acetic acid can dissolve gelatin, but it is insoluble in organic solvents like alcohol. It is transparent and brittle, and it can come as sheets, flakes, or as a powder. Gelatin is nearly tasteless and odorless with a colorless or slightly yellow appearance. Photographic and pharmaceutical grades of gelatin generally are sourced from cattle bones and pig skin. Its chemical composition is, in many aspects, closely similar to that of its parent collagen. During hydrolysis, some of the bonds between and within component proteins are broken. Gelatin is a collection of peptides and proteins produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the skin, bones, and connective tissues of animals such as domesticated cattle, chicken, pigs, and fish. Instant types can be added to the food as they are others must soak in water beforehand.Ĭharacteristics Properties Gelatin for cooking comes as powder, granules, and sheets. Gelatin is present in gelatin desserts, most gummy candy and marshmallows, ice creams, dips, and yogurts. Gelatin is an irreversibly hydrolyzed form of collagen, wherein the hydrolysis reduces protein fibrils into smaller peptides depending on the physical and chemical methods of denaturation, the molecular weight of the peptides falls within a broad range. ![]() Substances containing gelatin or functioning in a similar way are called gelatinous substances. It is commonly used as a gelling agent in food, beverages, medications, drug or vitamin capsules, photographic films, papers, and cosmetics. It may also be referred to as hydrolyzed collagen, collagen hydrolysate, gelatine hydrolysate, hydrolyzed gelatine, and collagen peptides after it has undergone hydrolysis. It is brittle when dry and rubbery when moist. Gelatin or gelatine (from Latin: gelatus 'stiff' or 'frozen') is a translucent, colorless, flavorless food ingredient, commonly derived from collagen taken from animal body parts. For other uses, see Gelatin (disambiguation). For the gel based on starch, see Starch gelatinization. For the dessert food, see Gelatin dessert. ![]()

![]() Worker honey bees have pollen baskets or corbiculae, which are a part of the tibia on their hind legs.Īs workers move from one flower to another, they collect pollen on the hairs of their body. Drones don’t have pollen baskets on their legs (unlike workers) ![]() As such, it needs to be long and flexible enough to suck up nectar from those hard-to-reach parts of a flower.ĭrones, however, don’t need their proboscis to forage for nectar, so it is shorter than that of a worker, and doesn’t possess the same degree of maneuverability. ![]() This is because workers use their proboscis to collect nectar from flowers. However, worker bees have a longer and more complex proboscis than drones. Drones have a shorter proboscis than workersĪll bees have a proboscis, which is a straw-like tongue. Often drones need help from workers to chew through the cell wall and emerge. Because they don’t have strong jaws, the capping of a drone cell is actually thinner than the cell a worker is born in. A worker’s mandibles are smooth, which makes it easier for them to produce wax and feed larvae.ĭrones don’t need mandibles as strong as workers, because they aren’t charged with the tasks that worker bees are. Worker bees also use their mandibles for a variety of vital tasks inside the hive – feeding larvae, turning wax scales into drawn comb, grooming themselves and the queen, removing debris from the hive, and many more.ĭrones have much smaller mandibles than workers, and they have jagged edges to help with cutting and biting. Workers need strong mandibles, and use them from the start of their lives when they chew their way out of the cell they are born in. The mandibles, or jaws, are different in worker bees and drones. Drones have smaller mandibles than workers They have no need for one to position eggs, and they don’t play a role in guarding the hive either, so they don’t need one as a weapon. That’s why worker bees die when they sting.ĭrones don’t have stingers, because they are not female. Because the stinger is barbed, it becomes lodged inside the skin of the victim, and tears out the venom sac from the bee’s abdomen. Worker bees use the stinger to defend the hive from predators, such as bears, skunks and mice. A stinger is actually a modified ovipositor, which serves as both a weapon and an apparatus that helps to lay and position eggs. Needless to say, this is a difficult task. Drones, on the other hand, have huge compound eyes that sit on the top of their head, and are so large that they touch each other.ĭrones need bigger eyes because they have to find a queen mid-flight in order to mate with her. However, drones have much larger compound eyes than workers.Ī worker bee’s compound eyes sit on either side of their head. All bees have five eyes – two big ones called compound eyes and three tiny ones called ocelli. If you only have one bee in front of you and want to tell whether it’s a drone or a worker, look closely at the eyes. If they weren’t powerful fliers, they wouldn’t be able to catch a queen in the air and mate with her. This is to facilitate their more developed wings.ĭrones spend the majority of their lives flying back and forth between drone congregation areas, searching for a queen to mate with. ![]() Drones have more powerful wings than workersĭrones have a larger thorax than worker bees. R., Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons 2. A worker’s head is smaller and more angular than a drone’s. Drones are also a couple of millimeters (0.1 of an inch) wider than workers.ĭrones have larger heads than worker bees too, that are rounder in shape. If you compare them to a drone from the same hive, the drone will usually be an extra 5mm (0.2 inches) or so in length. Drones are longer and wider than workers, and their shape is more like a barrel, whereas a worker’s abdomen is more pointed.Ī worker is typically between 10-15mm long (0.4-0.6 inches). The most noticeable difference between a drone and a worker bee is their size. Here are the ten main differences between drones and worker bees: 1. Worker bees, however, are smaller than drones – and their bodies are designed to perform a wide variety of tasks inside the hive. These attributes help them perform their only role – finding and mating with a queen. Drones are larger than workers, have bigger eyes and stronger wings. The only other type of bee inside the hive is the queen (and there is only one of her).ĭrones and workers may look similar at first glance, but they have a number of key differences. Drones (male honey bees) and workers (female honey bees) are the most common castes inside a beehive. ![]() – Styling & photography: Soiree Event Design Want to get more of my tips?

![]() Once the footing was smooth and level, you would install two extra pieces of vertical rebar steel to allow you to make a mechanical connection between the vertical concrete pier that you would install the next day. You’d also have to stop occasionally to carefully place short pieces of horizontal reinforcing steel and then add the rest of the concrete. Finishing would find you laying on your belly and reaching down into the hole to get this concrete smooth and level. You’d first have to dig the hole for the pier, usually 24 inches in diameter, then pour a concrete footing. It used to be that this required a multi-step process fraught with frustration. You’d probably be better off to consider using poured concrete piers that you construct on your job site. Don’t forget, the normal deck block has no way to mechanically attach to the wood deck posts other than friction. There are very few places in the USA that have this climate. Precast deck blocks are probably best suited for climates where the frost penetrates into the soil no more than 4 or 5 inches in the winter. Precast Deck Blocks vs Poured Concrete Footings or Piers All concrete used to support decks should have reinforcing steel. Concrete only has one-tenth the strength in tension as it does in compression. The blocks may or may not contain reinforcing steel.The Internet is littered with photos and stories about ground-contact treated lumber that has rotted or been attacked by insects. The blocks have to be buried which means the wood deck post is also partially buried, leaving it subject to moisture penetration and wood-destroying insects.The post just rests on the block and you hope the concrete lugs don’t break off the block over time. Concrete pier blocks don’t have any way to mechanically connect to the wood deck posts.The deck blocks can almost always be handled by one person.It’s important to realize the pier blocks are small and offer the least amount of support most decks require. There are more cons to concrete deck blocks than there are pros. ![]() It’s a minimalist approach to supporting a deck. Just as you pull on the cap to expose the pen, you can lift up a deck off the blocks. Concrete lugs on the block act like the sidewalls of a pen cap. ![]() ![]() A wood deck support post fits down inside the concrete pier block. Precast concrete piers must be set with a crane or backhoe on the job site.Ĭoncrete deck blocks are very crude and resemble the cap you might have on a cheap ballpoint pen. They cannot, however, be simply placed at grade level.ĭeck blocks are not to be confused with real concrete piers that are either precast and weigh hundreds and hundreds of pounds or with piers you cast in place using precut rebar reinforced plastic forms that can easily be placed and handled by the average person. They must have a sufficient bearing area (the area of the block that sits on the earth) and be a minimum of 12-inches below grade, or below the local frost depth. They’re subject to all of the same requirements as a typical footing, regardless of not being cast-in-place. What are Concrete Deck Blocks?Ī deck block is in many ways just a simplified version of a “precast foundation,” a foundation type recognized by building codes. Perhaps the biggest drawback to concrete deck blocks is their limited potential as you never want to bury them in the ground thus causing potential rot issues with the wooden deck posts. They are just one option for support deck weight and come with certain pros and cons. Their purpose is to spread out the extreme concentrated loads at the bottom of wooden deck posts onto strong soil. Concrete deck blocks are primitive building materials that look similar to children’s toys that snap together to build things. “If you’re not the type of actor who likes to play around and have fun, it’s going to be torture for you. “You’ve got to have an imagination to do that,” Rudin said. And the actors have a lot of blanks to fill in, performing not just the lines on the page but also the grunts, groans and all the other sounds coming out of their characters’ mouths as they move around the screen. Typically, she said, each voice actor in a cast works individually, like a soloist before a conductor with no other members of the orchestra on stage.
