Squeezing the last minute out of a session

It's too late now.
If you're the moderator of a panel and you want to rush through one more question...
Or if you're the speaker and you need to race through three more slides...
Or if you're a writer or designer and want to add just one more idea...
Or if you're the teacher and there's just one more concept to talk about even though the bell's about to ring.
Too late.
End with a pause.
End with confidence and calm and yes, please respect your audience enough to not expect that cramming is going to help us or you.
No one, not once in the history of timers, has ever said, "I'm really glad that they went over by thirty seconds, huffing and puffing and begging for attention. That was the best part, and I respect them for cramming it all in."

~ Seth Godin

“He showed the words “chocolate cake” to a group of Americans and recorded their word associations. “Guilt” was the top response. If that strikes you as unexceptional, consider the response of French eaters to the same prompt: “celebration.”

"A Sydney school has adopted a policy allowing Muslim schoolboys to refuse to shake hands with women.
At a recent awards ceremony at Hurstville Boys Campus of Georges River College, female presenters were told by one of the two principals that some students would not shake their hands because of their Muslim faith, The Australian reported.
The boys were instead permitted to place a hand across their chest to show they would not be taking the hand of the women, many of them well-known figures from the local community."
