UITableView in JavaScript, list view with re-usable cells using flexbox

If you’re familiar with iOS development you will know that a UITableView is very efficient when displaying a list of data. A simplification of what it does is display enough cells to fill the viewport plus a few more either side. As you scroll it re-uses cells that are now out of the viewport so … Continue reading "UITableView in JavaScript, list view with re-usable cells using flexbox"

How a NASCAR Pit Crew Perfects a Pit Stop

The seconds saved (and lost!) during a pit stop can be the difference between a champion and a racer who doesn't place. If we playback a video of a NASCAR pit crew, we can see all the things they do precisely in an incredibly short amount of time. *This video is about the 5 lug nut pit stop that is still used on the NASCAR Xfinity Series and the NASCAR Camping World truck Series. PIT Instruction and Training has trained pit crew athletes for the sport of NASCAR since 2001. With nearly 70% of its eight hundred and sixty-five students having raced in NASCAR’s top three divisions, PIT has proven itself to be a high capacity producer of pit crew talent for the motorsports industry. Interested in taking the pit crew path? Call 704-799-3869 or email pitcrew@visitpit.com for details on how to begin your new career in the pits. Adam Merrell has been coaching pit crews within NASCAR since 2006 and has coached multiple stock car and truck teams since joining PIT Instruction & Training in 2007. He is a certified and licensed athletic trainer (ATC/L), and a certified strength & conditioning coach (CSCS) by trade, which has strengthened his knowledge in biomechanics and coaching to help place pit crew members at the highest level with championship teams.

Fading in a Page on Load with CSS & JavaScript

When I visit a page, I get annoyed when I try to interact with elements while the website is still loading. Often stuff is moving around, fonts aren’t quite loaded, and it feels broken.

I know nowadays we’re obsessed in this industry with gaining every millisecond in page performance. But in a couple of projects that I recently overhauled, I added a subtle and clean loading mechanism that I think makes the experience nicer, even if it does ultimately slightly delay the time that the user is able to start interacting with my page.

I still find myself wanting disabling JavaScript on pages I visit. Sometimes it’s to test a page I’m working on, but in other instances it’s simply to visit a web page that’s not functioning correctly and I want to see if JavaScript is the culprit.

Endorepellin evokes an angiostatic stress signaling cascade in endothelial cells [Glycobiology and Extracellular Matrices]

Endorepellin, the C-terminal fragment of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan perlecan, influences various signaling pathways in endothelial cells by binding to VEGFR2. In this study, we discovered that soluble endorepellin activates the canonical stress signaling pathway consisting of PERK, eIF2α, ATF4, and GADD45α. Specifically, endorepellin evoked transient activation of VEGFR2, which, in turn, phosphorylated PERK at Thr980. Subsequently, PERK phosphorylated eIF2α at Ser51, upregulating its downstream effector proteins ATF4 and GADD45α. RNAi-mediated knockdown of PERK or eIF2α abrogated the endorepellin-mediated up-regulation of GADD45α, the ultimate effector protein of this stress signaling cascade. To functionally validate these findings, we utilized an ex vivo model of angiogenesis. Exposure of the aortic rings embedded in 3D fibrillar collagen to recombinant endorepellin for 2–4 h activated PERK and induced GADD45α vis à vis vehicle-treated counterparts. Similar effects were obtained with the established cellular stress inducer tunicamycin. Notably, chronic exposure of aortic rings to endorepellin for 7–9 days markedly suppressed vessel sprouting, an angiostatic effect that was rescued by blocking PERK kinase activity. Our findings unravel a mechanism by which an extracellular matrix protein evokes stress signaling in endothelial cells, which leads to angiostasis.
