The 2019/20 Premier League campaign currently finds itself in shutdown mode due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The season was postponed up until April 30, at the very earliest, on Friday, after the campaign had originally been on hold until April 3.
So, with no on-field action taking place for at least the next five weeks, it is transfer gossip and speculation that will be dominating the headlines.
And with that in mind, here is a round-up of the very latest rumours from across the Premier League.
City defender wanted by Barcelona
Barcelona are showing an interest in signing Manchester City centre-back Aymeric Laporte this summer, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The defender, who joined City from Athletic Bilbao in January 2018 for a fee north of £50million, has been hampered by injury troubles this season, which have restricted him to a paltry eight appearances in all competitions.
Despite his injury troubles, Barcelona are keen on exploring the possibility of taking the Frenchman back to La Liga this summer, as they look to try and bolster their defensive options.
The La Liga giants have drawn up a big list of defensive targets but it is thought that the France international is top of their wish-list.
Gunners eye Longstaff swoop
The Metro are reporting that Arsenal are keen on signing out-of-contract Newcastle United midfielder Matty Longstaff this summer.
The highly-rated midfielder's contract is set to expire at St James' Park this summer and the Gunners have joined a whole host of clubs that are showing a keen interest in landing his signature.
The 20-year-old midfield man burst onto the scene earlier this season when handed his debut by Newcastle boss Steve Bruce, and he has impressed ever since.
The likes of Ajax, Borussia Dortmund and Inter Milan are all thought to be chasing the youngster's signature as well.
Chelsea confident of completing Chilwell deal
Chelsea are confident that they can persuade England international Ben Chilwell to swap Leicester City for Stamford Bridge this summer, though the transfer fee could prove to be a stumbling block, according to Goal.
The Foxes full-back, who has been one of the Premier League's most consistent defenders in the past couple of years, is high up on Frank Lampard's wish-list this summer as the Blues look to try and bolster the left-back position.
But even though Chelsea are confident of convincing Chilwell to join the club, they know they will face a battle with Leicester to complete the move.
It is highly likely that the 2016 Premier League champions will demand a huge fee for the 23-year-old, just as they did when Harry Maguire went to Manchester United last summer.

Product | Thecus NAS Server (N7710-G) [Website] |
Summary | Intel Pentium G850 seven-bay BYOD NAS with USB 3.0, HDMI and 10 GbE ports, supporting multiple volumes and filesystems with many serving options. |
Pros | • Standard 10GbE port • Aggressively priced, especially for 10GbE NAS |
Cons | • Runs older Thecus OS 5 • Firmware still has quirks |
Typical Price: $1053 Buy From Amazon
Updated 5/7/14: Missing component information added
A glance at the NAS Charts shows well over a dozen products with throughput greater than the 125 MB/s possible from a Gigabit LAN connection (due to write cache effects). So it's clear that there are products in need of a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) port to allow users to get the most out of them. (Aggregated dual and quad Gigabit Ethernet ports help access higher throughput, but only for multiple-client access.)
Until recently, the cost of 10GbE NICs and switches and their reliance on SFP and Direct Attached Twin Axial Cabling have made 10GbE a pricey option for the few NASes that supported 10GbE. But Intel's $350 X540-T1 NIC that connects to standard RJ45 / CAT6 cabling has brought 10GbE within the reach of small businesses and prosumers that just have to have the highest performance possible from their networked storage.
At around $1300, Thecus' N7710-G is aimed directly at scratching that higher-throughput itch without driving buyers into the poorhouse. It sports a built-in 10GbE port nestled into its single PCI-e slot, plus two aggregatable 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports. It's also available sans the 10GbE port as the N7710.
The N7710-G effectively replaces the TopTower N6850 [reviewed] that is currently the entry-level NAS in Thecus' "Large Business-Tower" line, even though the N7710-G is positioned as the top end of Thecus' "SMB-Tower" group. To save cost, the N7710-G swaps the TopTowers' touch-sensitive glass panel for the old-school LCD and button interface found on the other "SMB-Tower" models like the N7700PRO v2 and N7510 [reviewed].
Thecus' seven-bay chassis hasn't changed since we first saw it in the N7700. The front door still has is secured with a push-push latch and no lock. And each of the drives sits in a lockable tray that has light pipes to carry power and activity / error lights forward from the drive backplane. It seems like the drive lights are now better positioned behind the front cover holes, but it could be my imagination…
N7710-G Front panel callouts
The rear panel view below shows four more USB 2.0 ports for a total of six and there are two USB 3.0 ports, dual aggregatable Gigabit Ethernet ports and both HDMI and VGA ports for monitor attachment. The blank slot at the top of the photo below should show the single RJ45 10GbE port provided by Thecus' C10GT PCIe card. The NIC compatibility list shows other 10GbE NICs from Emulex and Intel that alternatively could be user-installed.
N7710-G Rear panel callouts
I used four WD Re 3 TB drives provided by WD (WD3000FYYZ-0) for testing. They brought total power consumption with all drives spun up to 76 W. The drives all spun down after the 30 minute idle time so that I could measure 43 W in that mode.
The N7710-G is relatively quiet, considering its power draw. I rated its noise level as medium, coming mostly from the system fan. With all seven drives loaded, I imagine it could move up to medium high.
The N7710-G is not as easily serviceable as some of Thecus' other tower NASes. Although the motherboard is mounted on the removable panel with the two main case fans, the drive bay backplane keeps the panel from sliding out. There are two thumbscrews that appear to be the key to freeing the panel, but they are on the other side of the drive bay cage and I could not figure out a way to get at them.
From what I could see and from a few morsels in StorageTimes.com's N8810U-G review (it uses the same motherboard), I've compiled what I could find out about the key components into the table below, along with those for the N6850. If anyone can provide the missing or "?" info, just let me know and I'll update the table.

Other info:
- the board is marked N7710 / N8810U ver 0.2
- the 10GbE NIC is a Tehuti TN4010
- there are four full-sized DIMM slots, three empty.
- the four Silicon Image SiI3132's are mounted on the drive bay board
- the empty bay on top of the drive bay found in the N6850 is absent
- there is a full-height mini PCIe slot on the main board near the rear panel, but with no panel cutout to access it
- EXT4 filesystem is used
I was surprised when I logged into the N7710-G to see Thecus' older V5 OS vs. the newer OS 6 [reviewed]. So check the N4800 review for a V5 feature overview. The N7510 review describes the newer Data Guard, Data Burn, Local Display and Transcoding Service modules. Here's a shot of the Home page that you get upon login.
N7710-G Home
As long in the tooth as OS 5 is, the firmware still has some rough edges. Whenver I selected the Auto App Installation menu, the browser just kept showing "Please wait" and I couldn't change to any other page. I had to kill the browser tab and delete the cookies for the NAS' IP address before I could get it unhung.
I was able to download and install apps by downloading them from the NAS App Center and uploading them via the uploader on the Application Server > App Installation page.
The App Center lists 163 apps for the N7710-G (ThecusOS 5 64 bit), but that count includes multiple versions of the same apps as shown in the screenshot below.
N7710-G App Center
I had to use the Rsync backup app to run the network backup tests because the built-in Data Guard Remote Backup feature threw an error when I tried to connect to the Delta Copy rsync server that is my standard rsync test client. I was able to use Data Guard's Local Backup feature for attached backup testing. But I had to delete the profile each time vs. editing as I moved the USB drive between USB 2.0 and 3.0 connections. For an OS that has been around this long, problems like this should have been solved long ago.
Performance Overview
The N7710-G was tested with 2.04.05 firmware using our recently released V5 NAS test process. Since the new testbed supports 10GbE testing and so does the N7710-G, I ran a full suite of 10GbE connected tests with RAID 0, 5 and 10 volumes. The Benchmark summary below shows 1GbE connected results on the left, 10GbE on the right.
A quick overview shows Gigabit-connected write / read performance around 100 MB/s for all three tested RAID volume types, with a dip down to 89 MB/s or so for RAID 10 Intel NASPT File Copy read.
10GbE connected benchmarks showed a wider performanc range for large file copies from a high of 381 MB/s for Intel NASPT RAID 0 File Copy write to a low of 164 MB/s for Intel NASPT RAID 10 File Copy read. Note that benchmarks using a mix of smaller file sizes, NASPT Directory Copy in particular, knock throughput right down to low teen MB/s.
Thecus N7710-G NAS Benchmark summary
iSCSI benchmarks shows it also could take advantage of the 10GbE connection's higher bandwidth. Write and read measurements on RAID 5 volumes came in at 94 MB/s / 101 MB/s for 1 GbE and 256 MB/s / 248 MB/s for 10GbE.
As noted earlier, I used Data Guard for attached backup tests and the Rsync backup app for network backup tests. I ran rsync backup tests with both Gigabit and 10 Gigabit connections, but saw no significant difference at 60 and 58 MB/s, respectively. Best case for attached backup was 39 MB/s for an NTFS formatted volume with both USB 2.0 and 3.0 connections.
Performance – 10GbE Comparative
Since this is the first 10GbE test with the new process, I have no directly comparable data to show. But as a sanity check, I took the 10GbE results from the Thecus TopTower N6850 review that compared it and a QNAP TS-1079 Pro with RAID 5 volumes. Both NASes were connected to the V3/V4 Intel i3 / Windows 7 based testbed and Intel X520-DA2 10 GbE NICs were used on both NAS and testbed.
I added the N7710-G's results as red numbers to the chart below. While they aren't directly comparable, they seem to follow the general pattern of the other results. Keep in mind the CPU's in the NASes are an Intel Pentium G850 @ 2.9 GHz for the N7710-G, Pentium G620 @ 2.6 GHz for the N6850 and Intel i3-2120 in the QNAP.
Thecus N6850, QNAP TS-1079 Pro, Thecus N7710-G – 10 GbE connection
1GbE Comparison
The Charts Database has a handful of NASes based on dual-core general-purpose processors to compare. But since they were tested on a different testbed, I have to include the caution that the results aren't directly comparable. That said, I filtered the NAS Ranker to show only products based on dual-core general purpose CPUs and got seven products, with the Thecus N6850 and N8850 TopTowers tied at the top and the N7710-G at the bottom of the rank. But before you dismiss the N7710-G, note the #12 rank among all 70 NASes ranked.
NAS Ranking – Dual-core CPU NASes
Putting the N6850 and N7710-G Ranker Performance details side by side, we see the N7710-G's main weaknesses are in the Directory Copy tests. The other largest difference was the N7710-G's 99 MB/s Video Playback vs. 113 MB/s for the N6850. Its 39 MB/s same-as-USB 2.0 NTFS format backup result vs. the N6850's 84 MB/s didn't help either. Keep in mind that the NAS Ranker doesn't include 10GbE results in the ranking—not that it would have made a difference with no other 10GbE results to rank against!
Thecus N7710-G, N6850 Performance Summary Comparison
Use the NAS Charts to further explore performance.
Closing Thoughts
With its odd number of drive bays (pun intended) and bundled 10GbE interface, the N7710-G doesn't really have any direct competitors at the moment. QNAP has plenty of "10GbE Ready" desktop and rackmount NASes with empty PCIe slots ready to accept Emulex, Intel and QNAP-branded NICs, but no models with 10GbE built in.
NETGEAR's six-bay RN716 is the only other 10GbE-equipped NAS that comes to mind. But its two 10GbE ports, quad-core Intel Xeon Ivy Bridge E3-1225v2 processor, 16 GB of ECC RAM and $2700+ street price (diskless) put it in a substantially different class.
So if you're itching to get a 10GbE NAS on your LAN and willing to put up with Thecus' OS quirks, the N7710-G at $1300 could be a good way to dip your toes into the rising 10GbE tide.

This first game of the Consolation bracket certainly seemed like a 9am game in the early going. The halftime score was a mere 18-11, led by Canton. Things heated up in the second half, however, as both teams stepped up the scoring. Brown County erupted for 35 second half points after only scrounging 11 in the first half. They battle back and defeat Canton and the Hornets advance to play Saturday. Brown County (6-5) shot an anemic 4-15 (27%) in the first two frames. The second half was far different, as they shot 14-24 (58%). Canton's Little Giants (0-8) commanded most of this game. They led for 22:28 and by as many as 10 points early in the third quarter. Turnovers, rebounds, and free throws were as even as the final score. Brown County's Tate Fullerton scored his team's last three deciding points, all coming from late free throws. Canton's Jackson Churchill nailed a three pointer with 8 seconds remaining to pull within one…but no other scoring would occur. The Hornets were led by Nathan Hendricker's 20 points on 8-16 shooting. Also in double figures were Tate Fullerton (12 points) and Chance Fuqua (10 points). Fuqua also had a game-high eight rebounds. Hendricker added six boards of his own. Gavin Miller's fast hands swiped four steals. Canton was led in scoring by Trey Passmore, who had 19 points. A trio of Little Giants tied with a team-high five rebounds (Turner Plumer, Jake Smith, and Trey Passmore). Smith also dished out a game-high four assists. Canton had eight bench points to Brown County's zero. Brown County advances in the Consolation bracket to face the winner of Eureka and Camp Point Central. They will play in Game 17 (tomorrow, 9:00am at WIU's Brophy Hall). Canton has been eliminated from the tournament. Box Score Brown County Info Canton Info Chris Derry December 27, 2019 |

What drives a growing mindset?
In the episode "Four Eyes" of "Little House on the Prairie" Miss Beadle, the schoolteacher, explains to Mary Ingalls' parents the mysterious decline in Mary's school performance, addressing her possible fixed mindset. According to Miss Beadle, when reaching their limits many talented children are not willing to make any effort to learn and are often outmatched by less talented classmates who are certainly used to give in to succeed.
Fortunately, Mary just needs glasses, and she will get back to being a top notch soon. Still we can surely relate to similar scenarios in our daily working life. When confronted with new topics, most people's performance declines due to their lack of willingness to adjust their routine and learn something new.
How does the brain work in the face of changes?
In the brain, changes are perceived and elaborated in its very deep region called the amygdala that also steers all our emotional and more irrational processes, as well as the "fight-or-flight" response, within the so-called limbic system.
The amygdala determines whether what is happening has to be interpreted as a thread or a reward. Basically, our entire nervous system reacts in this binary way. We, humans, are attracted to rewards and we avoid threats instead.
Interestingly enough, this is the most important criteria in our decision-making process at any level :-@
When a change is coming, the brain sends an alert: Danger! Danger! Something new is approaching and it is not likely to be anything good for us!!! The amygdala sends out commands to the body to be ready to fight (yes, as simple as that and we are that prehistoric), hormones and adrenaline with a vasoconstrictor effect are produced. As a result of this, we are not only stressed, but also more and more exposed to health issues.
There is an interesting reason why the brain tends to associate changes with a dangerous situation. Changes force one to question their capabilities and competencies to cope with those. This is strictly related with those individuals cultivating a Growth- or a Fixed-Mindset.
People with a fixed mindset operate in the conviction that their competences are a given set of skills.
Intelligence cannot grow or be enhanced.
Such individuals are good at what they are doing, however, they do not tolerate failure.
Because failure is the most relevant component in a change process, it becomes clear why those individuals avoid to be confronted to changes. If they cannot escape and the moment they will naturally fail, you will be able to tell that you are interacting with a fixed mindset person simply because they will blame anything else but themselves for the failure.
People with a Growth Mindset see change as an opportunity, they are willing to go through learning processes and are not scared to fail. They are aware that failure brings experience, they will be open to feedback and they won't question their skills for not championing a process, yet!
How come? Nobody likes to fail, right? Keep reading…
Striving for a growth mindset brings a surprisingly positive added value: It encourages neuroplasticity, that is the ability of the brain to build up new neuronal connections. This summarizes the magic of our brain in one action: it does get older but it never stops growing!
It is crucial that organisations in which change will play a role start cultivating this Growth Mindset, and more specifically in the perspective of going through digital transformation. The Growth Mindset should be lived top down, for example creating a failure, or better, a learning culture and encouraging employees to learn and practice new things. As usual, the most important element that enables a culture to cultivate a growth mindset is TRUST.
Is it possible to systematically build trust in an organisation?
Yes. Here, the protagonist is, again, the brain. Neuroscience identifies five elementary needs that should be found in any corporate culture. If these needs are fulfilled, you will be able to create the perfect working environment that allows co-workers to trust each other, to be creative, honest, cooperative, constructive, inclusive, focused and efficient. We are talking about the so called SCARF Model part of organisational change, that we will talk about in the next episode of… Growing your mindset with the Coaching Heads!
Stay tuned!
How to start a Growth Mindset revolution, you ask? Well obviously with The Coaching Heads – coaching – training – revolution!
If you would like to deep dive into the topic, the book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol S. Dweck is the best read. Oh and of course the Little House on the Prairie, S01 – EP05.

Most Canadian universities participate in the US-based National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) that measures various aspects of "student engagement." The higher the level of engagement, the greater the probability of positive outcomes and the better the quality of the school. Maclean's magazine publishes some of the results of these surveys. Institutions are ranked in terms of their scores on 10 engagement categories and four outcomes. The outcomes considered are how students in the first and senior years evaluate their overall experiences (satisfaction) and whether or not students would return to their campuses. Universities frequently use their scores on measures reported by Maclean's in a self-congratulatory way. In this article, I deal with levels of satisfaction provided by Maclean's. Based on multiple regression, I show that of the 10 engagement variables regarded as important by NSSE, at the institutional level, only one explains most of the variance in first-year student satisfaction. The others are of limited consequence. I also demonstrate, via a cluster analysis, that, rather than there
being a hierarchy of Canadian institutions as suggested by the way in which Maclean's presents NSSE findings, Canadian universities can most adequately be divided into a limited number of different satisfaction clusters. Findings such as these might serve as a caution to parents and students who consider Maclean's satisfaction rankings when assessing the merits of different universities. Overall, in terms of first-year satisfaction, the findings suggest more similarities than differences between and among Canadian universities.
Keywords: NSSE, Maclean's, Canadian university rankings, student engagement, student satisfaction
La plupart des universités canadiennes participent à l'Enquête nationale sur la participation étudiante/National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), qui est basée aux États-Unis. Plus le niveau de « participation étudiante » est élevé, plus la probabilité de résultats positifs est élevée, et plus l'école est considérée comme étant de bonne qualité. Le magazine Maclean's publie certains des résultats de cette enquête. Les établissements y sont classés selon leur score dans dix catégories de « participation » et quatre résultats. Les résultats considérés sont la manière dont les étudiants de première et de dernière année évaluent leur expérience globale (satisfaction), et leur désir de retourner étudier au même endroit si c'était à refaire. Les universités utilisent fréquemment les résultats rapportés par Maclean's à des fins d'autopromotion. Dans cet article, je me penche sur les niveaux de satisfaction présentés par Maclean's. Sur la base d'une régression multiple, je montre que sur les dix variables de participation considérées comme importantes par la NSSE, au niveau des établissements, une seule explique la majeure partie de la variance en ce qui concerne la satisfaction des étudiants de première année. Les autres ont peu d'effet. Je démontre également, par le biais d'une analyse par grappe, qu'au lieu d'être hiérarchisées comme le suggère la façon de faire de Maclean's avec les résultats de la NSSE, les universités canadiennes peuvent être divisées de façon plus adéquate en un nombre limité de grappes de satisfaction. Ces découvertes peuvent servir de mise en garde aux parents et aux étudiants qui considèrent les classements de Maclean's pour comparer les universités. Globalement, en ce qui a trait à la satisfaction des étudiants de première année, elles suggèrent qu'il y a plus de ressemblances que de différences entre les universités canadiennes.

Project-Based Learning
This challenging time provides an opportunity for students to work on real-world problems
they see every day.
Amid a pandemic, educators are trying to figure out how to make sure that kids are socially in tune, emotionally intact, and cognitively engaged. Moreover, we're all attempting to figure out how to do this across a plethora of mediums, including computer screens, video cameras streaming into classrooms, and engaging students face-to-face albeit across shields, masks, and plexiglass.
Still, there is an opportunity here to give students a chance to discuss the challenges of their own environment, the barrage of news they face daily, and the core content they need for long-term success. One of the best options to meet these demands is for students to engage in rigorous problem- or project-based learning (PBL)—an approach that ensures students develop high rigor and experience high relevance by solving problems or
completing tasks in a remote or face-to-face environment.
Some analysts foresee that the rise of automation—triggered by advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, and other novel technologies—will soon unsettle sizable sections of our labour market, prompting the need for mass upskilling and re-skilling. Continuous learning is perceived as the new norm within the future of work. Many believe that solutions to future surges in training demand will require a degree of dexterity not exhibited by traditional postsecondary education (PSE) organizations, and advocate for radical alternatives. However, we outline how basic reforms leading to a more robust articulation and credit transfer system could also improve our PSE system's ability to handle augmented training demands. In turn, we explore how the Canadian federal government can facilitate these reforms by (a) providing additional incentives for domestic colleges and universities to engage in seamless transfer, and (b) supporting the production of knowledge to inform more strategic forms of pathway articulation.
Keywords: transfer credit, articulation, future of work, policy
Des analystes prévoient que la hausse de l'automatisation, stimulée par les progrès de l'intelligence artificielle, de la robotique et d'autres technologies novatrices, va bientôt déstabiliser des segments importants du marché du travail, entraînant une vague de mises à niveau et de requalifications. L'apprentissage continu est considéré comme la nouvelle norme pour le marché du travail de l'avenir. Nombreux sont ceux qui croient que la future croissance de la demande en formation nécessitera un degré de dextérité jusqu'ici non démontré par les établissements d'enseignement postsecondaire traditionnels, et qui préconisent des solutions de rechange radicales. Néanmoins, nous suggérons que des réformes de base pour consolider le système d'articulation et de transfert de crédits pourraient également améliorer la capacité de notre système d'enseignement postsecondaire à prendre en charge des demandes de formation accrues. Ensuite, nous explorons comment le gouvernement fédéral canadien peut faciliter ces réformes i) en offrant des incitatifs supplémentaires aux collèges et universités du pays
pour qu'ils offrent des passerelles plus fluides; et ii) en soutenant le développement des connaissances pour trouver des options d'articulation des parcours qui soient plus stratégiques.

While Indigenous entrepreneurship is associated with significant economic promise, Indigenous innovation continues to be invisible in Canadian policy contexts. This article examines how Indigenous entrepreneurial activities are framed in government policy, potentially leading to another wave of active exploitation of Indigenous lands, peoples, and knowledges. The
article first discusses the concepts of Indigenous entrepreneurship and innovation through a decolonizing lens, drawing links to education. Then, it provides a set of rationales for why governments need to re-think and prioritize Indigenous entrepreneurship. Next, it maps the current federal government initiatives in this policy sector. Drawing from the Indigenous entrepreneurship ecosystem approach (Dell & Houkamau, 2016; Dell et al., 2017), the article argues that a more comprehensive policy perspective guiding Indigenous entrepreneurship programs should inform Canadian innovation policy. Individual voices from 13 Indigenous entrepreneurs in Manitoba point to three core issues: (a) relationships with the land and the community; (b) the relevance of (higher) education and training; and (c) the importance of cultural survival and self-determination. The article makes an argument for a systemic decolonizing change in how Indigenous innovation is approached in government policy and programs, supported by the work of higher education institutions1.

Alors que l'entrepreneuriat autochtone est associé à une promesse économique importante, l'innovation autochtone est toujours invisible dans le contexte des politiques publiques canadiennes. Cet article examine la manière dont les activités entrepreneuriales autochtones sont encadrées dans les politiques publiques, laquelle risque de provoquer une autre vague d'exploitation des terres, des peuples et des connaissances autochtones. Dans un premier temps, l'article discute des concepts d'entrepreneuriat et d'innovation autochtones sous l'angle de la décolonisation et établit des liens avec l'éducation. Ensuite, il fournit un ensemble de justifications expliquant pourquoi les gouvernements doivent repenser et prioriser l'entrepreneuriat autochtone. Enfin, il recense les initiatives actuelles du gouvernement fédéral dans ce secteur. S'inspirant de l'approche écosystémique de l'entrepreneuriat autochtone (Dell et Houkamau, 2016; Dell et al., 2017), cet article soutient qu'une politique publique plus complète pour orienter les programmes d'entrepreneuriat autochtone devrait éclairer la politique d'innovation canadienne. Les voix individuelles de 13 entrepreneurs autochtones du Manitoba permettent de souligner trois enjeux fondamentaux : 1) les relations avec la terre et la communauté; 2) la pertinence de l'enseignement (supérieur) et de la formation; 3) l'importance de la survie culturelle et de l'autodétermination. Cet article plaide en faveur d'un changement décolonisant systémique dans la façon dont l'innovation autochtone devrait être abordée dans les programmes gouvernementaux
et les politiques publiques, avec l'appui des établissements d'enseignement supérieur.

This paper focuses on the recent political spars between Canada and Saudi Arabia as well as China and their impact on Canadian universities. It asks three questions: (1) What key issues did Canada's political strains with Saudi Arabia and China raise for Canadian universities' international education (IE) initiatives and what issues were absent? (2) What do these key issues suggest about Canada's approaches to IE in an era of new geopolitics? and (3) What implications can be drawn from these cases about Canadian university-government relations in the context of new geopolitics? Given the powerful role media plays in education policy, a systematic study was conducted across three main media sources to identify 74 articles and news releases between August 2018 and November 2019. Three dominant themes are identified and analyzed, each vividly illustrating the close ties between global politics, government foreign policy and IE within Canadian Universities. On the one hand, the narratives speak to concerns about IE as a risk to national security and, on the other, as a vehicle for Canada's economic prosperity. However, what the media has not achieved is a broader discussion on how Canada needs to revisit its IE objectives and approaches in light of broader geopolitical shifts. Using the theoretical framework of soft power, the paper speaks to the limitations and short-sightedness of Canada's approach to IE as soft power in this era of new geopolitics and concludes with three recommendations for Canada.

Cet article se concentre sur les répercussions sur les universités canadiennes des tensions politiques récentes entre le Canada et la Chine et entre le Canada et l'Arabie saoudite. Il pose trois questions : (1) Quels sont les problèmes causés par ces tensions politiques pour les initiatives d'éducation internationale des universités canadiennes, et quels problèmes sont
exclus? (2) Que suggèrent ces problèmes quant aux approches du Canada en ce qui concerne les initiatives d'éducation internationale à l'époque de la nouvelle géopolitique? (3) Quelles sont les implications sur les relations entre les universités canadiennes et le gouvernement du Canada dans le contexte de la nouvelle géopolitique? Puisque les médias jouent un
rôle puissant dans les politiques éducatives, nous avons mené une étude systématique auprès de trois sources médiatiques et retenu 74 articles de journaux et communiqués de presse entre août 2018 et novembre 2019. Il en ressort trois thèmes principaux qui illustrent les liens étroits entre la politique mondiale, la politique étrangère du gouvernement et les initiatives
d'éducation internationale au sein des universités canadiennes. Il y a deux narratifs concurrents : d'une part, celui selon lequel l'éducation internationale serait une menace pour la sécurité nationale canadienne et d'autre part, celui selon lequel l'éducation internationale contribuerait à la prospérité économique du Canada. Cependant, les médias n'abordent pas la question plus vaste de la manière dont le Canada devrait revoir ses objectifs et ses approches en matière d'éducation internationale à la lumière des grands changements géopolitiques. L'article utilise le cadre théorique du soft power pour discuter des limitations et du manque de vison de l'approche du Canada en ce qui concerne l'éducation internationale comme soft
power à l'époque de la nouvelle géopolitique. La conclusion inclut trois recommandations pour le Canada.

Among the many things that faculty members worried about in our Covid-19 switch to remote teaching was how to provide course materials when students could no longer walk into a campus library. The distance between our students and every volume, every assigned reading, every computer station seemed to underscore what was different and newly difficult about teaching and learning in a pandemic.
Many of us have stress dreams that surface over and over in our lives. Here is one of mine: I'm driving. It gets dark suddenly. I turn on my lights, but I still can't see. I turn on my bright lights, but that does not help. I say to myself, "This is too dangerous," as I pull over to the side of the road. Because the dream happens only when I am faced with a situation that has no obvious answer, I do not need an expert interpreter to tell me that my subconscious is warning me to pause until I have better information about the path forward.
For Anthony Wheeler, geography made it easy to accept a job offer in early April — even in the midst of a global pandemic — to become dean of Widener University's business school. While he had to conduct his finalist visit on Zoom and saw only the inside of the business school via a cellphone video shot by a member of the search committee, he was excited about its programs and already lived roughly 20 miles from the campus, greatly simplifying his decision.
On Friday, March 13, the novel coronavirus went from being a mysterious illness that had upended my teaching to something that invaded my home and health.
Two days earlier, I had received a message from the president of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor telling us to cancel classes for a couple of days and to resume teaching the following Monday "remotely, in alternative formats." My recent research and writing concern on sociability — in public places like coffeehouses — and its crucial role in the production of modern culture. Given that I was unlikely to meet face to face with my students or colleagues for the foreseeable future, I was about to experience the importance of sociability firsthand.
Like many faculty members that week, I attended workshops on remote teaching that had been quickly organized by our instructional-technology office. I was trying to learn the pros and cons of various teaching platforms and methods in a desperate attempt to salvage my courses. Meanwhile, my oldest son was traveling back home from his own campus after his spring-break plans collapsed. My wife, a busy caterer in a university town, discovered that all of her events had been suspended until further notice. My youngest son's public school closed abruptly.
This essay is based on an episode of the University of Technology Sydney podcast series "The New Social Contract". This audio series examines how the relationship between universities, the state and the public might be reshaped as we live through this global pandemic.

The Gallup organization, perhaps America's most respected surveyor of public opinion, recently conducted its annual Alumni Survey of nearly 20,000 adults who attended college, slightly more than 1,600 of whom graduated between 2010 and 2019. Presumably most of these respondents are in their twenties or early thirties. When asked, 63% of white or Hispanic students agreed or strongly agreed with the statement "My professors at [University name] cared about me as a person," compared with only 44% of Black
Joe Biden has a secret weapon in his bid for the presidency: He is the first Democratic nominee in 36 years without a degree from an Ivy League university.
This is a potential strength. One of the sources of Donald Trump's political appeal has been his ability to tap into resentment against meritocratic elites. By the time of Mr. Trump's election, the Democratic Party had become a party of technocratic liberalism more congenial to the professional classes than to the blue-collar and middle-class voters who once constituted its base. In 2016, two-thirds of whites without a college degree voted for Mr. Trump, while Hillary Clinton won more than 70 percent of voters with advanced degrees.
Several individual differences have been shown to predict academic and psychological outcomes among university students,
however, it is not always clear which are most impactful, in part because many of the constructs overlap. Thus, the purpose
of the present study was to examine the unique contributions of self-esteem, self-compassion, self-efficacy, and mindsets
when predicting outcomes among university students. Undergraduate students (N = 214) completed an online survey
including measures of the predictors as well as the outcomes of self-control, mental health, and both course and term grades.
Correlations confirmed the overlap among the predictors highlighting the importance of examining the unique contributions
of each. Results of multiple regression analyses showed that self-esteem and self-compassion explained unique variance
in depression and anxiety over and above self-efficacy and growth mindsets. In contrast, self-efficacy and growth mindsets
each significantly predicted self-control when controlling for self-esteem and self-compassion. Only self-efficacy predicted
course grades. Given our results, we suggest that self-compassion and one's beliefs about their abilities are complementary
strengths for students attending university and should be considered when designing interventions to improve outcomes.
Keywords: self-esteem, self-compassion, self-efficacy, mindsets, self-control, mental health, grades
Food insecurity has been identified as an issue among postsecondary students. We conducted this study to describe the level
of food insecurity in a sample of university students with a particular interest in the effect of marginalization. A cross-sectional
survey was conducted using a volunteer sample of 3,490 undergraduate students (44% participation rate) at one BC university
campus between February and May 2017. Experiences of food insecurity were reported by 42.3% (n=1,479) of respondents.
Among those who were food insecure 60.2% (n=891) were female. Logistic regression analysis indicated that females,
students living on campus, those with a diversability (developmental, physical, or other disability), individuals self-reporting
as belonging to a visible minority, and international students were more likely to experience food insecurity than comparator
groups. When adjusted for gender, years on campus, and living situation, students who reported experiencing two or more
forms of marginalization were 2.52 times more likely to be food insecure compared to students who do not report any form of
marginalization. This study further supports concerns about high levels of food insecurity among university students in Canada.
In particular, the findings highlight the risk for food insecurity among students who are already vulnerable to socio-economic
inequity due to belonging to marginalized groups. Efforts to promote student well-being on university campuses need
to address food insecurity by addressing system-level factors to equalize the field for all students at risk for food insecurity.

Many peer mentorship programs in academia train senior students to guide groups of incoming students through the rigors
of postsecondary education. The mentorship program's structure can influence how mentors develop from this experience.
Here, we compare how two different peer mentorship programs have shaped mentors' experiences and development. The
curricular peer mentorship program was offered to mentors and mentees as credited academic courses. The non-curricular
program was offered as a voluntary student union service to students and peer mentors. Both groups of peer mentors shared
similar benefits, with curricular peer mentors (CMs) greatly valuing student interaction, and non-curricular peer mentors
(NCMs) greatly valuing leadership development. Lack of autonomy and lack of mentee commitment were cited as the biggest
concerns for CMs and NCMs, respectively. Both groups valued goal setting in shaping their mentorship development, but CMs
raised concerns about its overemphasis. Implications for optimal structuring of academic mentorship programs are discussed.
Keywords: peer mentorship, goal setting, postsecondary education, training program, program structure, student development
Many post-secondary institutions are developing policies and programs aimed at improving responses to sexual assault
experienced by students. In some areas, such as Ontario, Canada, the government has mandated post-secondary institutions
to do so. However significant these initiatives, they are predicated on the assumption that students trust, and want to
engage with, the university following sexual violence. This study explores students' perceptions of sexual assault policies and
services on one mid-size university campus focusing specifically on how trust factors into reporting sexual victimization and
using services. Findings show that students believe that sexual assault policies and programs exist, but this does not mean
students are willing to use such resources or that they even trust that their university has students' needs and interests at the
fore. This paper discusses policy and programmatic considerations for building student trust in their post-secondary institutions
to encourage student use of campus support.

This survey study measured the association between risk and protective factors of anxiety and its implications on the
academic performance of 1,053 students at a four-year, public post-secondary institution in southwestern Ontario. Logistic
regression analyses revealed 13 significant variables at the univariable level, while the multivariable model yielded seven
significant factors. Students who felt hopeless significantly increased their odds of reporting anxiety adversely affecting
their academic performance, while being able to manage daily responsibilities was the only protective factor against anxiety
impacting students' educational attainment. By planning, designing, and implementing proactive programs focusing on these
predictor variables, such interventions can equip students against the debilitative influence of anxiety on their academic

Imagine you have completed a scholarly article, book or creative product that you intend as a contribution to your discipline. Who will evaluate your work, attest to its quality and determine whether it is published or exhibited? Who will review the work when you are up for tenure and promotion or contract renewal?
Now, in your mind's eye, imagine a person who is likely to review the quality of your teaching for professional benchmarks.
"Write an initial post and then reply to two of your classmates." These are the standard requirements for students participating in online course discussions. Discussions in an online course play a vital role in creating substantive interactions, aiming to capture the spirit of discourse in face-to-face settings. This, however, can look and feel like busy work, making the purpose of online discussions unclear to students.
The standard blueprint is safe but has been exhausted. "Initial posts" can be counterintuitive—in essence, they require students to complete small writing assignments individually before giving other students feedback on their work (Liberman, 2019). How can we think outside of the box of posting and replying when it comes to these discussions? One way is to use online discussions as an opportunity to promote student autonomy and ask students to be active participants not only in how they respond to class discussions, but how they initiate them. Here are five considerations for promoting student autonomy while also
breaking the online discussion mold:

Cherry Glazed Meatloaf

Glazed meatloaf is covered in a sweet-spicy cherry BBQ sauce for full-on flavor.
Have you ever cleaned the outside of your house windows? When you start thinking about it, it sounds crazy to not do it — and yet, we hadn't done it until this past weekend, when a friend and I grabbed some squeegees and uncovered sparkling clear glass. I still can't quite get over it.
All this cleaning and yard work we've been doing to get the house ready to sell means by the time dinner rolls around, we are HUNGRY. I mean, I thought my husband ate meals quickly before, but there's nothing like the appetite of a person who has done manual labor all day.
I decided we had to have meatloaf. Not only to feed our hunger, but also to help calm my nerves a bit about this whole selling-building situation. Yeah, it's summer, but sometimes you just need some comfort food. Plus, that cherry BBQ sauce was primed and ready to be used.
Growing up we always made meatloaf with ketchup or barbecue sauce, so I knew this glazed meatloaf would be terrific. Considering how my 2-year-old gobbled it up, I'm going to consider it a win. Plus it made enough for leftovers the next day, but if your kids are older than mine that might not be the case.
Obviously, the perfect pairing for glazed meatloaf is mashed potatoes, but in the summer I just go with some green beans. My favorite roasted corn salad would also be a spectacular side.
If you don't want to bake this meatloaf, you can follow the directions for slow cooking in this taco meatloaf instead. The top won't get as beautifully glazed, but it will be just as tasty. You could always finish it under the broiler, too.
Making the cherry BBQ sauce does add some time onto this recipe, but you can do that a day or two in advance, when you have extra time.
Be sure to cook the meatloaf all the way, and test with a meat thermometer if needed. Ground beef must be cooked completely.

Drag Race UK's Veronica Green's 'world crashed around' her during lockdown: 'I didn't leave my bedroom for three months'
Drag Race UK said goodbye to two queens this week, with Veronica Green forced to depart the competition after testing positive for coronavirus.
Despite a blip in the "Morning Glory" breakfast TV challenge, it seemed the Rochdale-born queen was on track to make it far in the competition – until the pandemic forced production to shut down for seven months.
As the "Queens on Lockdown" Drag Race UK special showed, the pandemic hit drag hard, closing venues up and down the country, and effectively making the job of drag queen obsolete.
It was something that Veronica Green, an entertainer for 15 years, struggled with, sending her into a depression and unable to leave her bedroom for 12 weeks.
Eventually Veronica's mental health improved with the support of her fiancé, but in a crushing twist of fate, she was unable to return to Drag Race UK, having tested positive for COVID-19 two days before filming resumed, as she told PinkNews.
Veronica Green! How are you doing?
I'm good. I'm a mess at the moment after last night's episode, I don't know which way is up! [Laughs]
How was it watching that back?
I had my hands over my eyes at first, I was like, "Oh, I don't know if I want to see this." But it went by so fast. It was not as bad and as emotional as I thought it was gonna be. I think I'd already prepared myself for it.
I suppose that was back in November that it all went down, so you've been sitting on it for a while.
I found out I couldn't return to the competition two days before filming started again. So I spent a few days crying and getting my feelings out, being in my emotions, and then I found a way to move forward with it. I kind of made my peace with it through December.
In the "Queens on Lockdown" Drag Race UK special you shared that you went through a real depression in the filming break, are you comfortable speaking a bit more about that?
Of course. I didn't even realise that's what it was until I came out the other end of it, just because I shut myself off from the world.
I came back to the world having had such an amazing time on Drag Race UK and then that, all of a sudden, was in limbo, and I just came back to a completely new world. All my work was gone – as well as doing drag, I'm a singing waiter, and I do other singing jobs. I perform for a living, and there was nothing, absolutely nothing.
Just sinking into that feeling of your world crashing around you – there's nothing, there's nowhere you can go, nothing you can do. When I didn't have performing work, I would go work in retail or I would go work in front of house at theatres, but all the theatres were closed. My life was taken away from me, everything that I'd worked for for so long, and I was in such a state of shock. I didn't even want to leave my bedroom. It was 12 weeks that I was in my bedroom, not leaving except to go to the toilet or the kitchen for three months – there's something seriously wrong with that and I couldn't see it. I went through that three months not thinking there was anything wrong.
A lot of people will relate, I think, because as you say, entire industries just disappeared overnight and took people's livelihoods with them.
Everything's crumbled and there's been no support. I felt alone and I felt very lonely – partly my own fault because I did shut out family and friends and started ignoring phone calls and things like that. But in terms of the industries, it just felt like we're never getting live entertainment back. It's never coming back. And that was just something that I couldn't shake.
How do you feel about that now? A lot of people still feel the government aren't doing enough to help.
It goes back to that age old thing – when when you're in school, and you say, 'I want to be an actor,' and the teacher says, 'What about a real job, though?' That's exactly what it is. Society does not see entertainers as people who are doing real jobs. They don't understand how much they themselves enjoy entertainment to keep them happy, and it's a cycle of people not understanding and realising how important creativity, arts and entertainment are to everybody's wellbeing. And it's not just the people that are performing on the stage, you've got all of the the backstage crew, the set designers, props people, wig people. So many careers have started to collapse.
There was that joke a few months ago, 'Why don't you retrain in cyber?', but it takes time to learn new skills. And I spent 15 years honing the skills for this industry. We can't move into another industry overnight. And so a lot of people are still feeling left out at sea, basically.
But at the end of the day, we've got to also recognise that with a pandemic of this nature – a very infectious and very highly contagious virus – steps do need to be taken. Ultimately, we've got to get through that and it's important not to lose sight of that.
How's it been for you this lockdown? Obviously you've had the Drag Race UK exposure, has that changed things for you?
Yeah, things are things are a little bit different. I don't want to speak for anybody else in the cast, but from my point of view, it's tough, because although the exposure's great, I'm struggling to earn from it. There are opportunities for me, so I'm not going to complain, I'm managing to pay my rent every month – just about – but the nature of the world at the moment is that opportunities are slim and scarce. And I'm very thankful that I do have a platform. Because there are so many other people that are trying and trying and trying and not being seen or heard.
I think we watch Drag Race sometimes and lose track of the fact that these are real people competing, and these two episodes bring that perspective back.
That's what I really love about this season of Drag Race and why I think it's going to be one of the best, if not the best, seasons ever, because we're bringing reality back to reality television. We're getting to see that it's not just about the drama. I love the drama, I love being taken along for the ride – but it's also good to see the real side.
A lot of people would agree, there are a lot of people saying this is shaping up to be the best season in a long time.
I think it's because this the casting is spot on. The 12 of us, we gel so well, even through disagreements and arguments. And I think everybody went into it with their own idea of what they wanted to achieve in the competition. Some people went there to take it seriously, some people went there to have fun, some people went there to break the rules and turn everything on its head. And I think we all respected each other for that – we were all making television, but we were all allowing each each of us to have our own journey as well.
RuPaul said you've got an open invitation for next season, will you be taking her up on that?
Well, I've got a couple more days to decide. I'm leaving them on tenterhooks – I'm milking it for all it's worth!
Drag Race UK season two, including the "Queens on Lockdown" special, is available on BBC iPlayer, with new episodes released Thursdays at 7pm.

2008 has been a huge year for me personally, but also for my business. I've gotten to build relationships with some awesome couples and families. It makes my day to get a facebook message or email from one of the couples I've photographed, and I can't wait to see you and your (growing :P ) families for many, many years to come! I'm so thankful for everyone who has referred me, encouraged me, and loyally stalked my blog this last year.. its an incredible blessing to be able to do what I do and call it a career. I'm truly do have the best clients in the world!
When it came time to pick my favorites from 2008 I had the hardest time narrowing it down.. sooo I didnt :0) I tried really hard to pick my top 10, and I managed to get it down to 11 out of the engagements and weddings from this last year, and a full slideshow of all my real favorites from this past year.
Kyle and Amy's engagement session in VA Beach.. Love the laughter :0)
This was hands down my favorite image from Summer and Logan's engagement session. They were complete naturals in front of the camera, and Logan was a PRO at dipping! :0)I loved this one from James and Caitlin's wedding that I blew it up huge and framed it for my studio/apartment :0) I don't really know what it is about it, I think I just love the simplicity of it and how you can see him looking at her with that big smile on his face!I loved this one from Jessi and Stephen's wedding so much that I'm using as my 5×7 advertising flier for 2009! I used the other favorite from their wedding in my business card!I hope every single bride in 2009 wants to do a 'day after' session! I had so much fun with Erica and her new husband Daniel "trashing the dress" as some would call it. All I consider a 'day after' session to be is a time to take some amazing relaxed portraits of you and your new spouse after the wedding when you can pick a different location from the wedding, you have another reason to get all dressed up in that gown you fell in love with, you're not worried about keeping your guests waiting or getting a little bit of dirt (or a LOT of sand as the case may be!) on your dress because you're about to get it dry cleaned anyway! Each package in 2009 now comes with three options, an engagement session, bridal portrait session, or 'day after' portrait session and I hope more people take me up on it! :0) Not that I don't love engagement or bridal sessions, but the images from your wedding that end up being most "wall worthy" are the ones of your and your husband right after the ceremony, so why not take a little extra time and have some fun with it?! :0)

As we settle into 2018, it's natural to wonder what the New Year may bring. There have been dozens of "trend pieces" discussing what's in store. In this wrap, we consider possible 2018 trends in water, the GM debate, science communication, and food and nutrition.
After one of the driest Decembers on record, many Californians continue to worry about water supply. I turned to UC ANR water expert Faith Kearns. Faith is a scientist and communicator at the California Institute for Water Resources, a

A week or so back on Twitter I was asked to comment on a question that needed a little more response than 280 characters allowed. I tried to give a quick, simple answer, but it gnawed at me for a bit, 'cause I've seen this question many times before (from several angles), and it always feels like the answers it gets are very simplified. So a few days later I added it to my list of topics for here.
"Anyone know whether publishers will pick up a book that's
already been self-published for a new edition?"
Like so many things in this industry, this is one of those questions that sounds really simple, but there's actually a lot more to it. I think this is really a few questions that've been Voltroned together and then demanding a single, comprehensive answer. Which is why the answers it gets tend to always feel a bit over-simplified and off. To me, anyway.
For example, even if we're just asking how many self-pubbed books get picked up by traditional presses, this is a loaded question. Because most people don't consider smaller traditional presses in that—they're really just interested in the big ones. And small presses are, generally speaking, more open to picking up a formerly self-pubbed book. So viewing things this way already skews my answer.
Plus, it depends on just how we're phrasing things—slightly different questions can get very different answers. If I'm asking how many Big Five books started off a self published works… the odds aren't horrible. I mean, just personally, I know enough people it's happened to, and I have a good enough sense of how many books get published, so I feel comfortable saying yeah, there's passable odds it can happen. It's not exactly common, but I'd be willing to bet out of the thousands of books the big presses put out each year, more than a couple were previously self-published. And, as I just said, the odds get even better if we bring in smaller presses.
However… if my question is what are the odds of a self published book getting picked up by a big traditional press… well, those numbers plummet. Because now we're talking about hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of self published books each year and (as I said above) maaaaybe a dozen of them get picked up. So I can end up with a very different picture of things depending on what I ask. And, to be honest, how people want to answer. There's a lot of wiggle room here to make the answers fit what somebody wants to believe. Or wants you to believe.
All that in mind… why don't we try to break this Voltron-question down into its three (or maybe four) component lion-questions and answer each of those.
First off is the big one. Is my book something a traditional publisher would even want? Let's be honest—anything can be self-published. Absolutely anything. The most illiterate, nonsensical garbage can be self-published. So right off the bat, I need to have actually written a good book. Something a publisher might've picked up if they'd originally seen it. Something with a very solid structure, good characters, and strong dialogue. In this aspect, it's just like any other book they'd be looking at, and they're probably going to have much higher standards than… well KDP.
Not only that, but odds are they're going to be looking at my actual self-published book. I mean, I'm now a small press trying to convince a big press to take on one of my titles, so is it shocking to think they might look at it? Is it edited and copyedited? Does it have a nice layout? Awful as it sounds, does it have a halfway decent cover? They're not going to judge on any one of these things, but they're all going to have a degree of influence. I'm asking them to pick up this book, and if it looks like a crap book… well, they're going to notice that.
Second is the money side of things. Is it worth it for a traditional publisher to pick up my book and republish it? Again, one aspect of this is going to be like any other book—is this the kind of thing the publisher usually sells? Not a lot of historical romances coming out of Tor, and Ballantine isn't picking up a ton of splatterpunk. And even if I've written a straight sci-fi book, is it so sub-sub-niche that Tor might only sell a few hundred copies altogether?
That's actually a good place to bring up a sort of second-and-a-half point. There's also some math at work here. See, if my self-published book's only sold sixty or seventy copies, it means it's not getting any interest or word of mouth… which means it's probably not worth it for a big press to republish it. But if the book's sold too many copies, that means I've actually eaten into the potential audience. Every book realistically is only going to sell so many copies, so if all the market research says my book might appeal to an audience of ten thousand and I'm telling them it's already sold eight thousand self published… that also means it's probably not worth it to them to pick it up.
Also (what are we up to, my second and three-quarters point?) right now, as I'm writing this and you're reading it—okay, maybe not as you're reading it, depending—publishers are actually having meetings about what's going to be on sale for Christmas 2022 and even talking a bit about spring of 2023. Seriously. They're working that far ahead. Which means, on a lot of levels, they're not as interested in what's going on right now. So I might think this is a fantastic time for my book to go big, but as far as they're concerned… that time was fifteen months ago.
Third is what am I expecting to get out of this? Mass distribution? Book signing tours? A futon stuffed with twenty dollar bills? Welllll… remember that math I mentioned above? How much they think they can make off my republished book is going to affect how much they're going to pay me. I can't expect to get a huge advance off something that's been out there selling copies for a year or two now, so if I'm demanding a six or seven figure check out of this… get used to disappointment.
And them paying less money means they need to make less of an effort to recoup that money. So no book tours. Not on their dime, anyway. I'm probably still going to be pushing this a lot myself. It'll be more available, and it'll have a little more weight behind it, but I'll still probably be doing the same level of self-promotion I was doing when it was self-pubbed.
Also worth noting that the days of piecemeal rights deals are pretty much long over. I can't be thinking I'll ask the traditional publisher to take over just print and audio rights, but I'll still get to put out the ebook. Doesn't matter if it's my choice or because things are locked up in some previous deal. It's extremelyunlikely someone's going to accept very limited rights for the book, especially a big publisher. I might be able to make it happen with a smaller press, but even they're going to be a bit leery about it.
And all that's kind of a broader answer to "will traditional publishers pick up a book that's been self published." There's lots of ifsand buts in there, and I need to figure out where my book (and where I ) sit with all of them to get a real sense of an answer. And again, that's just to get us to whether or not it'll happen. Y'see Timmy, ultimately—like any other publishing venture—my journey of getting a self-published book picked up is going to be different than your journey, and odds are neither of us are going to get a deal like she did.
So… very long answer to a deceptively short question.
Next time, I want to talk about cake.
Until then… go write.

The 22 Celebrities with Sexy Legs that we all love!
Sexy legs? It's not uncommon for people to want perfect legs—the kind of toned, sexy-looking ones that celebrities or models have. The only problem is - these sorts of dreamy legs don't exist!
The sexiest legs around the world that will leave you speechless!
The most stunning legs are not always the prettiest. Some of them have incredible features that make you drool, and they're astonishing when wearing some nice pants, but there is more to beauty than just a pretty pair of calves on show.
This article discusses female celebrity pin-ups who've had their time in the spotlight with beautiful stems which might or might not be perfect for your taste buds.
Other celebrity women have similar physiques, and they look sexy and hot! So please take heed before judging someone because it's unfair!
This is the most fantastic gallery of gorgeous female celebrity legs you'll ever see.
Jennifer Lopez
She's hard to miss, as she has not only one but two of the most sexy legs in all of the women. Jennifer has been known throughout her career for wearing sexy short dresses and body-bending clothes.
Her posh outfit boasts signature sculpted legs while a nonstop closet of seductive mini skirts, gowns, and more keeps fans coming back to see what she will wear next!
Blake Lively
According to a recent survey conducted by Online, Gabrielle Union's arm is the best body part, and Sofia Vergara's breast is second on their list. However, Blake Lively took home this year's award with her amazing stem when it comes to legs.
Heidi Klum
Heidi's scarred leg devalues her insurance by $200,000. But, on the other hand, one knee is worth an estimated 2 million dollars to the world of fashion, and she has never lost its glow.
It seems as if Heidi will be forced to find coverage elsewhere when it comes time for renewal in a few months- or take out something other than what would cover just that one injury with no more premium upgrades allowed on this plan in the future.
Anja Rubik
During the 2012 Met Gala, Anja Rubik's slit had a chin-up. However, she has real leg confidence with the slits that she wore to this occasion. One of which ends up on Eddie Borgo's chest!
Her legs almost meet his, and that should be an indication for you how tall he is if they did not come before now.
Ciara's super-fit calves and thighs inspire health and wellness. She says growing up, she is like "a chicken with skinny legs," but now her hot mom has transformed into a fitness guru, thanks to Cira's inspiration!
Amy Schumer
Amy, the comedy cameron, attended MTV Movie Awards in 2015 wearing a Super short Balmain gown. Of course, Amy's line would be sure to speak with deadpan humor. But he'd get that it deserves to be on this list of sexy legs and funny women!
Rihanna's experience with the paparazzi has been a tough one. But, in 2007, she paid $500,000 for leg protection, and since then, it seems to have served her well!
Rihanna is not afraid of flaunting what he knows - including his investment in this expensive red carpet accessory.
Taylor Swift
The singer has endless legs, and she's not afraid to show them, with a parade of high-waisted short shorts that make everyone else jealous. And the heroine is Taylor Swift, a successful model with a good set of legs for sure!
Reese Witherspoon
She is a tiny star with long legs and toned arms. We should hear her voice on the red carpet, but her tall colleagues often dwarf it in heels. Reese is 5-foot-1 tall (5 feet) and weighs only 100 pounds!
Sandra Bullock
Their sexy stems get all the attention. Sandra always tops the list of best legs. She is an actress with decades of success, and it doesn't look like she'll want to let her star leave soon... but what does Sandra think?
Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham is one of the most popular Sports Illustrated models. She's hot and has a body to die for, which makes her even sexier when she takes off her bikini on beaches all over the world!
The Swimsuits - Sports Illustrated Issue includes Ashley Graham. She made a big splash in this issue because she is new to the SI-Swimsuit Issue.
Other previous issues have also been popular such as SI-Swimsuit via social media sites, such as Instagram. This has helped get people from all over interested, and they are able.
Cameron Diaz
The stars of Hollywood know how to use their assets. Unfortunately, Cameron knows this all too well as she has the sexiest legs in town and can make them work with any outfit, even those that are skin tight!
Karlie Kloss
It is no surprise that Karlie Kloss's knockout legs result from her dedication to fitness and diet. The model cites Justin Gelband's body-weight exercises as key muscle strengthening for the lower half but credits BBF with helping maintain their toned muscles too!
Kristen Stewart
Like a siren, she captivates us with her curves. She's mesmerizing in the dress we see that makes men want to take it off and reveal those sexy feet of hers.
When they're not working the red carpet or if she has to hide them for some reason, then there are no secrets left, so you should still admire and enjoy what is being shown!
Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner is a fashion icon. She has been in the public eye since she was just 16 years old, but her family lineage and connections have always helped out.
They gave Kendall access to exclusive designer clothing lines when she needed them most.
Angelina Jolie
Despite her age, Angelina has a lot of energy and can make quick decisions. Her legs are unstoppable somehow, but she struggles with taking care of herself due to depression caused by her financial situation.
Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy shared her Instagram story with her fans, a closer-than-life view of the beautiful tattered legs. This pair is quite naturally sexy and perfect for any occasion!
Halle Berry
Halle Berry, a 54-year-old actress and international beauty icon dedicated to her personal health regime continues to awe fans with her pretty legs.
""Every day, I get up in the morning and look at my body, and I think it is ok," said Halle about not just her strong legs but also how toned everything is around them!
Lucy Liu
I have a big crush on Lucy Liu. The girl is always very stylish. She's cute and sexy and really knows how to work her pair of sexy legs!
Tina Turner
Tina Turner's fame was not always something she planned for. The singer struggled with body-image issues before learning to love her legs the same way as her fans. But that didn't stop them from becoming one of Tina's most popular assets over time.
Nicki Minaj
Nicki Minaj is not just oozing sex appeal; she's roaring it. And when it comes to displaying her gorgeous gams in the best light, Nicki knows all of the poses for a woman with killer curves like herself.
Julianne Hough
She is the go-to celebrity for any show that needs a perfect pair of legs. But, with all due respect to her natural beauty, it's Julian's killer dance moves and enviable set of skills as one half of Derek Hough (of Dancing with The Stars fame) who have made this brunette bombshell so popular over recent years.
How can I get shapely legs?
Why not give yourself the perfect set of legs you've always wanted? Here is how to get the most beautiful sexy legs you can get.
- Eat a healthy diet
- Exercise your legs for at least 30 minutes daily
- Wear sunscreen on your legs and reapply as needed
- Shave any hair that is shorter than one inch in length
- Use a moisturizer on your legs daily
- Get at least 8 hours of sleep every night
- Dry yourself and apply lotion after you shower
- Protect your skin from the sun when possible
These are just some general tips to keep in mind, but they're important reminders that will help you achieve great-looking sexy legs. Most importantly, though, you need to be patient!

Celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow have been known to use these techniques, and they seem to be working wonders for them!
We hope that these ideas will help you find the confidence boost you need at home too. So have fun with it, and best of luck on your journey!
