I've never been one to announce my New Year's resolutions, but this year is different. This year I resolve to abolish the whole idea of New Year's Resolution in favor of "Seeking a Higher Algorithm." Let's face it, there is an algorithm for everybody and everything, making us all increasingly predictable. As a marketer I am a contributor to this revolution via the data-driven marketing practice known as "Personalization." In this week's Sunday Business section of The New York Times, I was reminded of personalization that targets... me, which I have to admit I found a little irksome.
In the article, "Listen to Pandora, and it Listens Back," the author, Natasha Singer, discusses how Pandora, the internet radio service, is moving beyond aggregating my "Thumbs Up" rating of songs in order to increasingly serve music to my liking. Not surprisingly, they are now mining my musical data in order to serve me more targeted ads, to improve the quality of my interruptions.
Online ad customization, known as Behavioral Targeting has been around awhile but Pandora, with more than 200 million registered users, has an enormous proprietary database tracking people's musical usage habits at an individual level. Pandora's algorithms will correlate my musical tastes and figure out that I am a political independent with a left wing zip code, a Jew with Buddhist leanings, am happily married and other inferences based on lyrics and musical patterns that statistically apply to the many individuals like me. I'm having a passing thought that maybe I'll go on a Hip-Hop binge or start listenining to Christian Gospel music and really throw them off, but my guess is that like the stock market, I'm in for the long haul and they will seek and find my level.
It's been the guiding principal of my life and thirty plus year career to take the independent path, to marry a free spirit and be a capitalist, to maintain a foot in the art world but run a business, to be conservative on some issues and liberal on others and never belong to either political party, to follow intellectual pursuits and enjoy B action movies — to avoid being stereotyped. So as the industrial era recedes further in the rearview and technology makes us smarter and faster, I realize that as much as I've tried to think unique thoughts and try different things, while I may not have ended up a carbon copy of my neighbor, I'm every bit as predictable.
So this year, I'm going to work on my spiritual life and getting in shape and when I see Groupon ads on my Facebook page for discounts on biking trips to meditation retreats in Thailand, I will have reached a higher algorithm. But first I'd have to spend time on Facebook, which is entirely too predictable.
While marketers have come to recognize the power of content marketing and the need for it to be strategic, web visitors and social media users have begun to wonder what to do with so much content. So how can marketers get the attention of people who are becoming saturated with so much relevant content?
We've been researching this question, reading analytics and attending numerous seminars and events. Here's what we think works best and is not going to require a big budget or more staff.
HubSpot, one of the most vibrant marketing software B2B's around, analyzed whether using visuals increased click-through rate. They found that, "Marketers who are using interesting images to their advantage can increase traffic to their websites -- just as long as they remember to include links!"
Another powerful tool for boosting website traffic is video. Marketers may think production cost is too expensive but videos don't need to be television-quality. In fact, a video shot with a pocket video camera that looks less commercial will feel more personal.
In a recent Marketing Sherpa article, "Content Marketing: Videos attract 300% more traffic and nurture leads," a case study of a B2B company that posted videos regularly demonstrated:
For help on how to include video in your email campaigns, here's a useful link:
At a recent Boston Business Journal event we attended that featured a discussion about winning practices for social media, panelists concurred on this point:
The best marketing is marketing that does not "sell," but instead promotes the experience that the business has to offer.
By showing photos and/or video of customers enjoying a particular brand, marketers can combine best practices for offering up strategic content marketing that gets readers' attention.
I was so captivated by a photo a friend posted on facebook of museum goers experiencing a recent installation at the Guggenheim, that I went to the museum website, clicked on a link to the video, and proceeded to buy tickets to for the exhibit.
James Turrell's "Light" exhbit at the Guggenheim and people "experiencing" the exhibit
Featuring video and photos on your website and periodically providing links to videos on LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook can increase site traffic. And the image or video needn't be as arresting as the Guggenheim clip. Videos of product demos, customer testimonials, introductory explanations and interviews offered on a straightforward b2b site, can be used to draw in and develop leads. And repurposing video across marketing tactics can make them an even more successful means of content marketing. For more tips on how to use video:

RainCastle is pleased to be working with Jim Stengel, former Global Marketing Officer of Procter & Gamble, and an industry leader in the fields of Marketing, Brand and Business.
While everyone has come to recognize the power of brands, it can still be challenging to quantify the value one's brand adds to the bottom line. Jim Stengel, through extensive research, identified the connection between financial performance and customer engagement, loyalty and advocacy. Essentially, he found that the companies with the best financial performance are what he calls "ideals-driven companies," i.e., ones in which the mantra of "improving people's lives" is indigenous to their vision, values and culture.
When I asked how the idea of an ideals-driven brand plays to B2B, Jim said many of his clients are B2B companies and the notion of improving people's lives just takes a different form than with a consumer company, such as Nike or Apple. His contention is that people are people and will always feel empowered when feeling that their product or service has a deeper purpose than its immediate function. IBM's "Let's Build a Smarter Planet" is one example of a B2B that has embodied their brand ideal. And at the end of their TV commercials, the voice over proclaims, "I'm an IBMer," giving the ideals-driven brand a personal touch and making us feel that everyone at IBM is united in the mission to build that smarter planet.
"Creating Marketing People Love," is marketing software vendor, HubSpot's tagline. HubSpot is one of the most vibrant B2B's around and it is plain to see that they are an ideal-driven brand whose financials have grown at an enviable clip. Their tools help businesses increase leads and convert those leads into happy customers — a sure way to improve people's lives. HubSpot puts an enormous amount of passion and energy on educating their partners and customers, providing white papers, eBooks and webinars, so their customers will be successful.
Brands are often described as needing to satisfy a balance of rational and emotional needs. One might sound the familiar refrain that B2B markets and their decision making process are necessarily more rational than in consumer markets, because they are often selling higher value products or services, which require many decision-makers. But it still comes down to people selling to people. And people are moved by emotional ideas. This means that a strong B2B brand is expected to posess all of the rational attributes, but will truly rise above by offering an emotional benefit found in authentic brand ideals.
In the B2B world, How important do you think ideals-driven brands are?
Infographics are taking over the earth! At least it seems that way. There has been an explosion of infographics on the web — in both B2C and B2B — literally illustrating that a picture is indeed worth a thousand words. But before we get into what makes a good one, let's define what an infographic is and why they have reached the tipping point.
Infographics are graphical representations of content that would alternatively require a lot of words or that would be difficult to glean without previous knowledge of the subject. So, it is essentially visual shorthand for weaving a qualitative story, often from quantitative content.
The facility for rendering complex data in simpler terms is a coveted skill. The way in which people absorb content on the web these days is like a butterfly flitting from flower to flower. Attention spans are short and getting shorter as is time to focus and reflect. If content creators can distill complex narratives into compelling, easy-to-comprehend visuals, visitors to their websites are more likely to engage with them.
Infographics can be a part of any digital marketing campaign. With Javascript animations, strong use of color and fonts, intuitive icons and illustrations all optimized for Search, infographics can build your backlinks, improve organic traffic, wow your audience and strengthen your brand.
The key ingredients of a good infographic are:
Here are a few infographics I've come upon lately, which do a particularly good job making a lot of content easy to digest.
Not surprisingly, HubSpot has created and compiled a top ten collection of cool infographics related to the field of marketing. Each represents a different concept and is rendered in a different visual format. The configuration of text, graphics, fonts, icons and colors is chosen specifically to solve the visual problem. The great thing about Infographics is that they grow organically from the data so developing one is a unique creative experience yielding a unique result. Because of their custom nature, most infographics are not template based, although I've seen a few starter infographic toolkits mostly directed toward non-designers. These may be helpful for people not comfortable visualizing, but tend to yield more cookie cutter solutions.
This Fast Company interactive infographics depicts the multiple ways a business can rank its profits, such as by project, by state, by customer and so forth. This one is actually a collection of single infographics representing one view of company profits at a time, which can be accessed by simply clicking an arrow.
For sports fans, this infographic provides 10 years of data on whether spring training improves batting averages.
You can see that whatever the quantitative problem, there is a unique and compelling way to simplify and visualize it in an infographic. Have you seen any cool infographics lateley? Please share.
It's 2013 – do you know where your marketing is? The thought should scare you, a bit. Or at least scare you into action. Chances are, your prospects are online, and if they're not, they will be soon. In the meantime, there are still people online talking about your brand, services, successes, and shortcomings. Why risk your reputation by ignoring this community or by alienating them with outdated marketing techniques?
Inbound marketing gives you all of the tools necessary to move your company forward in harnessing this opportunity. But first, you need to assess where you could be falling short in your current marketing strategy.
Put quite simply: the internet has created empowered consumers. They now have the time, ability, resources, and interest in researching every option before making a decision – it's all at the tip of their tablet-driven fingers. With this shift in perception, site visitors are now looking at your company with one goal in mind: determining if you have the right product or solution to meet their needs.
Despite this, too many businesses are still approaching their marketing strategy with the old mentality of "we need to showcase just how good our product is." And while in the time of baby boomer marketing a flashy "come see how shiny this is" strategy was enough to sway your audience, today, it will only alienate them. Because today, deciding on a product or service is no longer about choosing the one you've seen the most commercials for, but is rather about choosing the one that best meets your needs.
This decision is hardly made solely on outbound marketing anymore; it has shifted to organic search, online reviews and recommendations, active social relationships, and valuable content that shapes the purchasing decision. Your website messaging, social media participation, SEO, and content marketing strategies should all be founded on a new goal of informing the visitor. Because in the end, an informed prospect is going to a smart prospect, and will lead to high quality retainer relationships for your business.
You want the consumer who wants you, not the one that is unsure.
Things that Google does not factor into its algorithm: overdone on-page keyword copy, keywords in meta descriptions
Things that Google flags as negative or punishes in its algorithm: keyword stuffing, faulty or spam link building, non-relevant page copy, pages with too many ads, content farms
Things that Google awards in its algorithm: page freshness, specific, targeted URLs and page titles, human-like copy, relevant content, social media sharing
As a search engine, Google's #1 prioirity continues to be rewarding content that is written for the reader and not for the ranking. It is always crucial to set your site up properly for SEO and to maintain important keywords to inform messaging and traffic patterns. But these SEO tactics must be used in tandem with original, fresh content creation that benefits the searcher, not to trick him or her into visiting your site. And certainly not to trick Google into ranking your site higher.
These outdated SEO are no longer sneaky enough to outsmart the system. They are also a waste of any good marketer's time or effort. Instead of compiling your Black Hat SEO Playbook, concentrate on creating the kind of content that will be naturally rewarded for its successes, and that will maintain the reader's interest because it (point #1) gives them a solution, or at least a little education.
Billboards, magazine ads, commercials, radio jingles, brochures, telemarketing – all push marketing techniques, all things that are hard to measure, show little ROI, and can be an annoyance or turn off. And through it all, have you actually ever spoken to a prospect?
Great marketing (and new business development) only grow from facilitating relationships online. Top companies use social media to pose questions, share knowledge, create discussion, and provide human resource support. They blog often, provide personalization, and use marketing automation or actual sales and marketing team members to communicate with prospects, leads, and customers, pinpointing exactly what kind of resource is needed at each turn.
Once a potential client is familiar with your brand and willing to purchase your product or service, social engagement must continue to be a main point of communication, and especially reflect the previous points of providing the right content and value. It's also about continued listening: 70% of brands ignore complaints on Twitter, and yet 83% of socially savvy consumers have walked away from a purchase in the past year after a negative customer service experience – compared with 49% of everyone else (The Social Skinny). And while the risk factor is great, the reward is even higher: according to the same source, 55% of people share their purchases socially on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and other social sites, essentially, doing your marketing for you.
The emergence of website analytics does not mean creativity in marketing has died; it means it has been validated. A/B testing, page performance, sharing statistics, conversion rates – all of these available analytics serve to prove all that your creative (visual or content-based) can accomplish. They also serve to make it better.
Human intuition, humor, and the creative process are brilliant things to bring to the table, and should never be taken for granted. But now, when it comes to creating effective marketing campaigns, the behavioral data available today is one of the most powerful tools you can use to build upon these initial intuitive ideas.
Now it's possible to improve campaigns continiously, to funnel leads and grow sales, to fine-tune your website and branding according to user interaction, and to show proven results at the end of the day. It's no longer about basing your marketing entirely (and blindly, I might add) on your CEO's gut feeling of what works from his or her perspective, but rather about considerately tapping into the analytics at hand to build a comprehensive and successful marketing program.
In the ever-expanding world of internet marketing, data is becoming increasingly available and valuable. Analytics are the benchmark of good reporting and proof of that ever-pesky ROI, and are even useful in highlighting more qualitative results, like brand loyalty and emotional connection.
In 2012, what is a marketer without data to streamline engagement, acquisition, and retention of customers and clients?
And, in 2012, what is a good marketer without the thirst to hone his or her craft by harnessing more effective data?
This is where B2B marketers especially have the ability to learn from each other's experiences and accumulate shared perspectives.
In a partnership with Eloqua and CMO.com, research firm Software Advice has launched a 2012 B2B Demand Generation Benchmark Survey to ask questions on the future of lead generation, focusing primarily on:
Utilizing the input of B2B marketers, the report generated from the survey will highlight demand-gen programs compared across industry peers and experts.
As a marketing agency that continues to learn and evolve with each new project and client, this kind of crowdsourced data provides us an opportunity to compare our understanding with others in similar situations. As a result, we have an enhanced ability to improve upon our programs and client work.
Yes, this is all relatively straightforward. But so is this survey – hence the beauty in participating. And at times it's important to remind ourselves of the resources at hand, and that there is still so much still yet to learn.
Inbound marketing is often passed over in favor of traditional marketing because it seems too complex or involving too much time. But in most cases, inbound marketing is more cost-effective, measurable, and successful… when done correctly.
As with any marketing effort, these campaigns must be based on a larger company marketing goals and planned with the right resources. In essence, they must be strategic in order to be successful; we've outlined five things needed to create those programs.
A bit of brutal honesty: your marketing goal cannot be "to generate more leads." It cannot be "to gain more customers." When a waiter asks what you want at a restaurant, you do not say, "Yes, I would like some food."
Specific goals are the foundation of successful inbound marketing campaigns: "I want to generate 100 new qualified leads through our free trial program in September" will make for a stronger program because of its definability. This definition grows not just from revenue goals, but also from a larger marketing strategy. As a company, what are your goals for growth, culture, and brand awareness?
Similarly, this marketing goal has to align with sales efforts: what is the minimum number of leads your sales team can and should be following up on? What does each department need to bring to the table in order to combine efforts seamlessly? Internal alignment of goals and strategy is integral first step in producing a great campaign.
Like establishing well-defined marketing goals, outlining the right success metrics allows for clearer tracking and measurement. In other words, these metrics should quickly and easily track positive campaign results.
What are the 5-10 key metrics that would best highlight these results: number of leads, cost per lead, total customer conversions, content downloads, blog subscribers, website visits? Identify these prior to launch so that you can implement all of the necessary tracking analytics and create a benchmark report for your current site performance.
We hear again and again that the biggest roadblock in launching successful inbound marketing campaigns is a lack of company resources. There are simply not enough people to create content, actively monitor analytics and create reports, and tweak campaigns during the length of the program.
Thankfully, this is why you have a partner.
Chief tasks, including content creation and measurement, can be delegated to members of your marketing team, company services specialists, your partner marketing agency, or outside copywriters and brand journalists. It's not just a matter of responsibility, but also one of curating new ideas on content topic, formatting (eBook, webinar, blog post), and marketing channels. Use your team's best assets to delegate appropriately and maximize output.
Another factor in resources is ensuring the ability to monitor measurement and maintain a set standard of data. Think of data as part of the flow, not an end point: data is used to show concrete results; results are used to determine goal completion; goal completion is used to measure campaign effectiveness; campaign effectiveness is used to evaluate current and future marketing strategy.
Data should not sit stagnant in your Google Analytics account; it should be your most powerful tool in ensuring a successful campaign. Did it meet expectations? Where were there surprises, weaknesses? Do the numbers reflect your initial goals and expectations? Active measurement ensures that your campaign is performing to the best of its ability, or, if not, leads to point #5.
Content and campaigns need to be improved, using key analytics, to keep you on track with your goal. The most effective way is to look for lagging points in the data and make tweaks to the content, offer, requirements, and channel distribution accordingly. This is a surprisingly easy way to progress your inbound marketing programs in a timely fashion.
But those aren't the only aspects of improvement; those are just the tactical ones.
Improvement is also based on analyzing the completion and results of your campaigns and evaluating leads and customers. Where is the quality? Is this the right audience? Was the sales process longer than anticipated? Analytics from hard data are a great way to measure a campaign's effectiveness; but as a company, you must look holistically at how these inform your marketing goals to the point where they reflect the bigger picture of your brand and clients or customers.
What have you found are indicators of success in your marketing campaigns?
Leading technology companies today face one undeniable marketing fact that many other industries can conveniently ignore for the time being: in order to highlight your technology as the best in the field, you must have a substantial online marketing presence.
And I'm not just saying that because I'm a strong believer in internet marketing for all businesses.
I'm saying it because as an avid consumer of modern technology, apps, marketing analytics and platforms, and contemporary gadgets, I expect a higher lever of online culture and communication from companies that I identify as savvy tech leaders.
So, how do you approach marketing your tech product online? We've outlined four intial strategies to get you started.
Building anticipation can be an often-overlooked tactic in successfully promoting a tech product or app. During development, identify where your target audience spends time online and what they are looking for in terms of a tech solution. Create introductions through forums, news sites, and with clever banner ads and online announcements.
Maintaining mystery and creating intrigue will create a demand for your product before it's available to the public.
If it fits properly with your overarching launch goals, you can also introduce the product or service initially by invitation only. Google+, Pinterest, and flash sales sites like Gilt and Rue La La have garnered an incredible amount of clout and a clamoring of customers by launching initially exclusively by invite.
If your audience is consistently using an app, purchasing high-quality tablets, smartphones, and laptops, and integrating technology into their online and offline lives fluently, you can bet they are simultaneously: following their favorite brands and products on Twitter, expecting exclusive content on Facebook, and looking for the most up-to-date industry information on your blog.
As a tech leader, your audience is expecting you to be accessible and active through all popular social media platforms. Similarly, they are expecting immediate answers to questions and posed problems. This can be done successfully through social media sites, but also through online communities like Quora, which serve as discussion platforms.
If you have the funds, invest in creating your own online community were customers can come for immediate and expert service, and where they can share their experiences and stories about your product or service.
Evernote, the leader in organizational apps for businesses on the go, has a solid, branded Twitter presence with an abundance of followers that is posted to regularly and is a source of news and information.
In addition, the company has an interactive blog with a number of sections, including one called "Our Notes," which serves to update customers on updates, down times, and product use suggestions.
Videos, Infographics, Quizzes; these are some of the highest lead-generating content tools at your disposal today.
To illustrate this, here's an infographic from Smart Insights.
Garnering online reviews from tech journals, articles from news sites (like Mashable and TechCrunch), and blog posts from industry leaders may have all fallen under the umbrella of public relations in the past, but now, are part of a larger strategy of gaining PR online whilst simultaneously working on gathering strong referral links back to your website to drive traffic and qualified leads to becoming customers.
Referral links not only funnel visitors back to your site who are interesting in your product and content, but give your website strength, and validate it as a strong source of related information in the eyes of Google.
TechCrunch reviewed app giant Instagram back in 2010 before it officially launched (double whammy: early promotion for interest generation + high-profile online review).
So, have you been successful in employing these tactics? Are there any you would recommend?
We like to say that your website is a living, growing thing; it's not static, but rather constantly changing. Many people believe that maintaining a website is a lot of unnecessary work, so we've brainstormed six quick ways to revitalize your website that will improve your design, marketing, and visitor engagement.
If you've got your company name in every page title on your website, you've got a problem. Take a look at your organic search and see what opportunities you're missing. Revitalizing your website SEO can help bring in new traffic and potential customers, and strengthen your existing site in the eyes of Google.
Adding calls-to-action on your homepage and select secondary pages is a great way to reflow traffic, bring in new leads, and spice up your current design with minimal effort. It shows that your business is on top of modern marketing practices and draws the eye in a distinctly visual way. Our blog post on what makes an effective call-to-action is a good place for inspiration.
Do this:
Not that:
Haven't updated the "news and events" or "articles" section on your homepage in months? Yeah, your visitors have noticed. It's a good bet that your homepage is the most viewed page on your site. Instead of thinking of it as a welcome mat, think of it as a welcome center – a place where visitors can come for the most up-to-date information about your business, employees, and industry. Engaging visitors here means higher site engagement and a lower bounce rate.
Chances are, potential customers are visiting your website to see your portfolio and examples of past projects. Seeing success stories from a couple years ago won't inspire confidence in your current offerings. Updating your case studies with stories, findings, and photos is a simple way to generate more interest and remain current.
Things change, and if you're in an industry that is constantly developing, revising copy on your important secondary pages is a great way to stay fresh for your visitors and for Google. It's also a great opportunity to update your internal links to other pages on your website or to your partners and clients.
Do your website images look like this?
Or worse, like this?
Old images, bad stock images, or a lack of images can all hurt your website. They instantly make a site look outdated and unprofessional. Changing up your images with professionally photographed company events or well-chosen stock photography gives the appearance of a redesign without any of the work.
Once you have a plan for all of these elements in place – fresh content, calls-to-action, improved SEO, and quality images – you can easily maintain the habit of updating your website and keeping it current, engaging, and interesting for your audience.

By now, anyone who is not living under a rock, knows that the decision to eliminate the long-census form has lobotomized the government and made public policy a mystical, maudlin, and moralistic guessing game rather than an objective evidence-based undertaking. Many compelling arguments regarding this sad outcome have been made and are firmly grasped by most.
To the few dissenters—who coincidentally already align themselves with the political right— I say this: if you are not going to oppose the census decision for statistical reasons, than do it to save conservatism! How is that possible? Well, it seems to me that the data debacle hurts Canadian conservatism in two very basic ways. First, the elimination of the form is an assault on the principle of individual responsibility. The government has effectively admitted that it is willing to capitulate to a group of citizens that find the census form burdensome. In so doing, the Conservatives have confessed to their belief that the public is too apathetic and too indolent to complete one of its very few and easy civic duties. [Read more...]

SACRAMENTO — State health officials Friday advised against eating shellfish caught for sport in Monterey Bay because they may be contaminated with a naturally occurring toxin that can make people sick.
The warning includes clams, mussels, scallops and oysters--plus sardines and anchovies--caught by sport fishermen.
Shellfish purchased in markets or restaurants are still considered safe because they come from special ocean beds that are tested for such toxins before the shellfish are sold, said Ken August, a spokesman for the Department of Health Services.

Podium Party: Oakley Action Sports Athletes Make Their Mark on Sochi Olympics
The medals have been awarded. The flame has been extinguished. The talk show circuit is complete. The Kellogg's cereal boxes are on the shelves. Shake it out. Exhale. It's over. The Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia are at their end. The world watched as skiers and snowboarders put on some of the most exciting performances of the Games. New stars arose; some pre-existing ones excelled as well. Joss Christensen shocked the freeskiing world; Jamie Anderson reaffirmed her dominance in snowboarding Slopestyle. Mark McMorris was humble and professional despite adversity; 15-year-old Ayumu Hirano was quiet yet explosive. Shaun White didn't have his best days, nor did Kaya Turski – but both will be back. Sports aren't predictable. Sports aren't always fair. The Olympics proved those facts, for better or worse. And in the end, in total, Oakley athletes won 84 medals at the 2014 edition of the Winter Olympics.
Golden Child: American Mikaela Shiffrin Captures Historic Olympic Slalom Gold
Step aside ladies; it's Mikaela Shiffrin's world and you are just living in it. The 18-year-old Colorado native took the world by storm Friday, winning the gold medal in the women's Olympic slalom event. No stranger to making history, the American alpine skiing sensation became the youngest female in Olympic history to win the slalom event. She also became the first U.S. woman to win the Olympic slalom since Barbara Cochran won at the 1972 Winter Games.
American Joss Christensen Flawless in Men's Freeski Slopestyle, Wins Olympic Gold Medal
In the end, Joss Christensen could only throw his head back and smile. He watched as 11 competitors rode their second and final run of the Slopestyle finals, and one after another, they couldn't match him. His first run, highlighted by a beautiful switch triple cork 1260 – the only of the competition – resulted in an insurmountable score (95.80). Big name after big name tried, but failed. And the last skier standing, the one who would get the victory lap, was the one who almost didn't even make the trip to Sochi.
Anastasiya Kuzmina Wins 7.5K Sprint Biathlon Sochi Gold
Anastasiya Kuzmina of Slovakia defended her gold medal from the 2010 Vancouver Games in the Women's 7.5km Sprint Biathlon. Her finishing time of 21 minutes, 6.8 seconds was enough to secure her third career Olympic medal. Her winning time was 19.9 seconds faster than Russia's Olga Vilukhina and 21.7 seconds quicker than bronze medalist Vita Semerenko of Ukraine.
Bilodeau Wins Second Consecutive Olympic Freestyle Moguls Gold; Kingsbury, Smyshlyaev Medal
In Vancouver fours years ago, Alex Bilodeau rallied his countrymen by winning the first gold medal for Canada at those Games. This year in Sochi, Bilodeau was equally as disruptive, becoming the first freestyle skier to medal in consecutive Olympics after defending his moguls title.
Family Affair: Canadian Sisters Justine and Chloé Dufour-Lapointe Score Gold and Silver in Freestyle Moguls
It wasn't enough that they secured gold and silver medals in Russia in the women's freestyle moguls event; the Dufour-Lapointe sisters from Canada stole the hearts of millions worldwide with their family bond during their moment of Olympic glory.
All Eyes On Sochi: Oakley's Performance Elite Are Ready For Their Shot At Glory in Russia
The time is here and the time is now. Some athletes have fought their whole life to make it to this moment. For other's it's a repeat chance at Olympic glory. Either way, the stage is set for the biggest winter sporting event in history. Every four years, winter athletes of all kinds gather at a predetermined spot in the world to compete for hardware that is unparalleled by any other award. This time around, all eyes will be on Sochi, Russia,
End of the Road: Oakley Snowboarders and Freeskiers Step Into Spotlight in Sochi
The stage is set. The qualifications and training and travel has passed. The goal now is simple: shine on the brightest stage in all of sport – the Olympics. Our top snowboarders and freeskiers have arrived to Sochi, Russia, prepared to step into the spotlight. A few have been on the Olympic stage before, but for most, this will likely be an experience like none other in their careers. The presence of action sports in the Olympics has increased dramatically for this XXII Winter Olympics Games. Snowboarding made its first foray into the Olympics in 1998 in Nagano, Japan when Halfpipe made its debut. This year, Snowboard Slopestyle and Freeskiing Halfpipe and Slopestyle join the frey, and all of a sudden the Olympics are a bit more exciting, a bit more hip – a bit more relevant (yes, we're sure there are heaps of young people influenced both athletically and culturally by Biathlon).
Road to Sochi: Team Oakley Athlete of the Week – Kaya Turski
This week's Team Oakley Athlete of the week is the most dominant women's slopestyle skier in the game, Kaya Turski. It's been a challenging six months for the three-time X Games Gold Medalist, after having torn the ACL in her left knee while practicing this past August.

Salmonella enteriticus, Neorickettsia risticii (Potomac Horse Fever), Clostridium difficile and Clostridium perfringens are most commonly associated with infectious diarrhea in adults. Foals can have a variety of agents including viral causes and bacterial such as Lawsonia intracellularis.
The main advantage of genomic strategies for testing is that a live organism is not necessarily needed for diagnosis. While the fact that diagnosis based on molecular techniques does not require live organism, DNA and RNA are subject to the same microbiological, biochemical and physical factors as live organism for degradation.
Veterinarians are the first line of defense against infectious disease outbreaks. Current problem and case based equine medicine likely does not prepare new graduates in outbreak control. Control of an infectious disease is based on correct application of the principles of population biology and transmission dynamics of a particular infectious organism, basic microbiology, and basic epidemiology.
Maintenance of excellent health and biosecurity standards at the level of the farm is the MOST effective way of maintaining an outbreak-free industry. All disease outbreaks have an index case and all index cases have a point of origin. Because horses are usually maintained at a "home" farm, then the origin of any outbreak should be traced back to the farm level.
Staphylococcus aureus is an important human pathogen and is a significant cause of hospital acquired (nosocomial) infection of surgical wounds and infections associated with indwelling medical devices. Staphylococcus aureus can colonize the skin and nares of humans which facilitate its transmission, particularly in the healthcare setting.
The clinical signs of VEE are similar to both EEE and VEE with a large variation in mortality ranging from 40-90% depending on the outbreak. In addition to subclinical and overt CNS clinical signs, diarrhea has been observed in VEE horses. Florida, Texas, and Louisiana are the three states ecologically at risk but recent activity in Panama could result in a transported case by air travel.
Neurological disease represents 0.3% (affecting between 0.2 and 0.5% of horses depending on age) of all health problems identified by owners in the latest 2005 Equine National Animal Health and Monitoring Study (NAHMS).14 Likely this is much higher given losses in young horses due to non-infectious neurological causes, in all ages of horses from underreporting of encephalitis, and misdiagnoses of these diseases as lameness and trauma.
Infectious and non-infectious hemolymphatic diseases generally present with the same clinical symptoms due to cardiovascular insult, lack of tissue oxygenation and possible impending cardiovascular collapse.
The deliberate induction of active immunity to an agent by exposure to the agent or to non-replicating components, with the intent of inducing protective immunity to challenge with a virulent infectious agent, is termed "vaccination". Actively acquired immunity is that provided by an antigen specific response of the challenged host's own immune system in response to materials recognized as non-self.

Kim Kardashian and her sister Kourtney were spotted shooting a scene for their reality television show in New York City last night, and it looks like the ladies were still pumped up after checking out the Black Eyed Peas concert earlier that evening. Kim tweeted, "Black Eyed Peas concert in Central park is crazy! Fergie looks so G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S!!!"
Kim took a walk on the wild side with a snakeskin coat and over-the-knee boots, while Kourt opted for a pair of sky high black pumps and a sparkly headband. Hmm, which look do you like better? We just can't decide!
Lookin' good, ladies!

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — The Ken-Ton Chamber of Commerce held an installation and awards cocktail party Wednesday night at the Village Square Events and Catering.
The chamber presented two Green Globe awards for advancing environmentally friendly policies to Kenmore Mercy Hospital and GM Powertrain.
Tonawanda Engine has been recycling its scrap metal and converting waste into energy, and in 2012, the plant saved enough electricity to provide 10,300 homes with electricity for one year.
"The plant is landfill-free, recycling, reusing or converting to energy all waste from daily operations since 2006," a statement from GM reads.
Last year, the plant recycled enough cardboard to save 8,900 trees and enough scrap metal to make nearly 5,000 automobiles.
The plant has also installed multiple electric-vehicle charging stations in its employee parking lots last year, and has plans to install electric-vehicle solar charging canopies in 2013.
"The two major reasons we picked the GM Tonawanda Engine plant are because it recycles or reuses 95 percent of its production waste, with the remaining converted to energy; combined with other employee contributions. They've demonstrated that it's a plant-wide effort," executive director of the chamber, Tracey Lukasik, said.
Kenmore Mercy Hospital also received the Green Globe award Wednesday.
The hospital formed a Green Team committee three years ago and since then has begun several recycling and sustainability programs. In 2012, the hospital recycled more than 28 percent of its waste — amounting to 528 tons.
Recent accomplishments include a drug take-back program that properly disposed of 1,538 pounds of unwanted medication and the hospital's meatless Mondays in the cafeteria.
"We are dedicated to maintaining a link between the health of each individual and the health of the environment," said Kathy McAlpine, food services manager and chair of the hospital's Green Team committee.
The hospital also donates coffee grounds and fresh vegetable scraps to a compost facility, sells fryer grease to a local company and has eliminated use of water bottles and styrofoam.
"Kenmore Mercy Hospital is a model to the Kenmore-Tonawanda community of how facilities can develop and implement programs to decrease their carbon footprint," said Lukasik said.
The service to community award was presented to Mike Ham, of Kenwood Photography. Ham has been in business for 33 years and has dedicated much of his time to community events.
Ham has been on the commerce board of directors for five years and is also on the publications and publicity committee of the Kenmore Village Improvement Society.
"I do the photography for most of their events," he said. "Like for the Santa Claus event and most other community events...I provide the images to them and they put them on their website and their Facebook accounts."
Ham also services the community for doing local business head shots that are updating their websites and publications.

The Bottom Line
- Well presented, eclectic collection of decorative arts and historical items, not all Irish.
- Several exhibitions catering for special interests.
- First comprehensive Irish collection featuring military history in fitting surroundings.
- Located "off the beaten track", though still within walking distance of city center.
- Photography not allowed.
- Part of the National Museums of Ireland, focus on Decorative Arts and History.
- Former barracks make excellently fitting surroundings for military displays.
- Eclectic collection even includes Samurai armor.
Guide Review - National Museum of Ireland (Collins Barracks, Dublin)
Upon entering the massive Collins Barracks courtyard, you will first have to identify the museum entrance on the left-hand side. From here you have access to four floors of exhibitions - ranging from "Irish Country Furniture" to coins, from silverware to clothing and from scientific instruments to "Irish Period Furniture". This eclectic mix is augmented by a glimpse into the Aladdin's Cave of storage, here you will find even Samurai armor ...
Two new exhibitions opened in 2006. After the exhibition "The Road to Freedom" was dismantled in Kildare Street, it has been partly resurrected as a display on the Easter Rising here. With good effect, the new exhibition is far more informative, definitely thought-provoking and less blatant hero-worship.
Parts of the old exhibition have also been relocated to the brand new display "Soldiers and Chiefs", the National Museum's stab at a military history collection. A successful stab. The story of Irish soldiers and warfare in Ireland from 1550 to modern days is told. The "Wild Geese" are included, as is the Irish participation in the American Civil War - not omitting the Irish fighting on the Confederate side. Exhibits include uniforms, memorabilia, weapons, up to and including a rare Landsverk tank, armored cars, planes and weapons used by the warring Lebanese and Palestinian fractions.
The museum now boasts two bookshops, a sizeable café and provides tours. A car park is available, but the easiest access is by using the LUAS tram.

Ryan Seacrest asked Maynard about what interests her in Jef Holm—the somewhat shy and quiet contestant on The Bachelorette 2012 who is rumored to be a finalist on the show. They also discussed Brad Womack and how she would have dealt with his "dodge a bullet" comment the moment she heard it in his interview.
Jef Holm is one of the more mellow contestants on Emily's season. It's not known if he's the man Emily will pick at the end of the season, but he's one of the leading favorites.
Seacrest asked what it is about Jef that she's attracted to.
"I think it's because he's like the last person that I would ever expect to be on The Bachelorette," Emily said. "He's not the typical guy who comes on the show. He's a very free spirit, but he's also very soft-spoken....just his voice makes me feel totally calm....and he's funny. I think he's a great guy."
Seacrest observed that Jef was "looking away" a lot and wondered if he was playing games. Emily disagreed and felt Jef is just shy.
Emily answered, "I think he's very shy, which is kind of the same way I was with Brad. I wasn't like 'Hey, look at me, look at me!'."
As fans know by now, Brad Womack made a statement that could have been taken two different ways when he said in an interview he was glad he "dodged a bullet" getting out of the relationship with Emily.
How did Emily feel?
"Honestly when I first heard it, my feelings were a little bit hurt...just because I felt we ended things on such great terms and I've never said anything bad about him," the single mom said. "But, I really thought about it and I know Brad better than that and I'm sure he didn't mean it the way it sounded. And, I don't take it...take it to heart."
Ryan Seacrest wondered if Emily would have used the "f" word texting Brad had she heard his comment that very second.
"A couple...a couple," Emily admitted. "I'm going to be honest."
Emily Maynard has given quite a few interviews since taping The Bachelorette 2012, but she opened up a bit more in this one. Will she choose Jef Holm as her future husband—or did she at least find someone worth exploring a future with?

Ruggiero said he and worked together in the restaurant business before—including some time at . When Luis expanded, he called Ruggiero "out of retirement" to manage the expanded space.

The restaurant opened without any fanfare on Monday, Aug. 15, and Ruggiero said as soon as the doors opened the phone began to ring and diners showed up.
"That was a zoo," he said. "We'd like to forget Monday. We didn't expect them to knock the doors down."

Just what I was looking for

This is my second pair of Smith sunglasses and they're even more comfortable and just as reliable as my old pair. I especially like the spring hinges, which I didn't have on my old pair. The extra lens coverage and overall sturdiness are huge advantages over my overpriced and fragile Oakleys.
Perfect sunglasses
February 07, 2010
These things are unscratchable and extremely lightweight - you'll forget you're wearing them. I don't really notice the "polarchromic" lenses much, but they did seem to help with late-afternoon skiing (seeing bumps in the shady spots)...

RUSTON, La. - Middle Tennessee used a 42-point second half to win, 68-51, over Louisiana Tech on Saturday evening inside the historic Thomas Assembly Center.
Playing in their first Conference USA road game, the Blue Raiders held on to just a one-point lead, 26-25, before opening the second period with a 14-0 run. MT never looked back despite LA Tech (5-10, 0-2 C-USA) chipping within 10 on a couple of occasions. MT (13-3, 2-0 C-USA) extended its win streak to 12-games, which ranks sixth nationally.
Ebony Rowe notched her 13th double-double this season with 20 points and 13 rebounds. The All-America candidate surpassed Kim Webb with a school-record 109th career double-figure scoring game.
Center KeKe Stewart added double numbers with 12 points, while grabbing six rebounds. Freshman Olivia Jones reached double-digit rebounds for the fourth time this season with 10. She added seven points and matched a career-high six steals in 34 minutes. China Dow achieved all eight of her points in the second half, while grabbing five off the boards. Additionally, Laken Leonard added eight points and TiAnna Porter picked up six in the Raiders' win.
MT shot 36.4 percent (24-of-66) from the field, going just 3-of-20 behind the arch. The rebound column was won by Middle Tennessee, 48-42. MT forced 20 Lady Techster turnovers resulting in 26 points. The Raiders 13th-ranked scoring defense held the Lady Techesters to just 51 points. Louisiana Tech made 18-of-53 from the field for 34 percent. Chrisstasia Walter had a team-best 15 points. Whitney Frazier had a game-high 14 rebounds for LA Tech.
Rowe scored six of MT's first 12 points as the Raiders opened the game with a 14-point lead. LA Tech went on an 8-4 run thanks to layups from Frazier and Kanderia Andrews to cut MT's lead to 16-12 at the 7:33 mark. The Blue Raiders were held without a basket in the final four minute, as LA Tech used a six-point run to cut MT's edge to 26-25 at the break.
First half shooting was not the Raiders' forte with MT going 9-of-33 from the field for 27.3 percent. LA Tech was 8-of-25 for 32 percent. Rowe led MT with seven points and six boards, while Walter posted six.
The Raiders came out on fire in the second half as MT opening a 16-3 run, to take a 42-28 edge with 15:00 remaining. Warden's layup stretched MT's advantage to 17 points with 9:29 remaining.
Louisiana Tech used a 13-6 run under 10 minutes to cut MT's edge to 10. Four points from Rowe and hitting free throws down the stretch helped the Raiders seal their 12th consecutive win.
On Wednesday, Middle Tennessee returns to the Murphy Center to host longtime C-USA member UTEP. Tip-off with the Miners is set for 7 p.m.
The win over LA Tech marked the first time MT had defeated the Lady Techsters .... Ebony Rowe reached double figures in the second half to become the school's leader with 109 double-figure scoring games ... Rowe scored her 66th double-double in her career and the 13th of her career ... She is 72 points away from reaching Kim Webb's all-time score record ... Olivia Jones had a career-high six steals in the win ... MT's 12-game win streak ranks sixth nationally after No. 22 Indiana fell to Ohio State on Saturday.

2014 Resolutions for Obama, the Republicans and You
Here's what Obama, the Republicans and all of us voters need to do better.
This is the time of year when we are supposed to reflect on the past 12 months and aspire to do better for the next 12. I am a believer in New Year's resolutions, even if we usually fall short of our lofty goals. In that spirit of personal improvement, here are 2014 resolutions for America's political class:
For President Obama: Lead us.
Literally. Take the nation to a place that it would otherwise not go, or at least try. Otherwise, what's the point? The essence of leadership is getting people to do things that are beneficial in the long run, but unpleasant or even painful in the short run. Military leaders encourage the heroism and sacrifice that ultimately win wars. Business leaders close plants and fire workers to make their firms more viable and prosperous in the long run.
Politics is no different. Start telling us more of what we need to hear, and less of what we want to hear. As with all good resolutions, you can start in January. Use your State of the Union address to clearly articulate why the U.S. needs to overhaul its entitlement programs and then offer at least the parameters of a plan for doing so. Your most ardent supporters from the left keep telling me that you've already done this, or that such a gesture would be pointless because the Republicans will never compromise.
Nonsense. You have never made a compelling and specific case for entitlement reform. And how the Republicans respond is on them. You are the president of the United States. You have an obligation to address our most serious challenges in an honest and compelling way, particularly in your second term. If you don't, who will?
For the Republicans: Be a more effective and intellectually honest opposition party.
There is nothing wrong with your conservative principles: small government, fiscal responsibility, respect for markets and so on. But how have you advanced those principles in the last six years? You do not control the government. You will not control the government after the midterm elections (unless both Obama and Biden resign). And given your poll numbers of late, you will not control the government after the 2016 elections.
So stop trying to make the Democrats look bad, and start trying to accomplish things that make you look good. Isn't the political martyr routine getting old? Let's make 2014 a year for getting things done that are feasible and consistent with the conservative agenda: corporate tax reform, a responsible long-term budget deal, education reforms that promote competition, pro-business immigration reform.
Wouldn't that be a good year?
[Check out our editorial cartoons on President Obama.]
For the Aspiring 2016 Presidential Candidates: Do not say anything now that will make it harder for you to govern later.
Yes, we all know that campaigns are about vague promises and maddening generalities. And yes, we know that voters don't like to hear bad news. Still, the point of this whole campaign endeavor is not to become president. That is a means to an end. The point is to do good things as president. So don't close that door before you even move into the White House.
The best presidential campaign is one that paints the most compelling vision of how the candidate will govern while saying the fewest things that constrain his or her options should he or she arrive in the Oval Office.
Think about health care. President Obama's travails with the Affordable Care Act arguably began during the 2008 campaign. Democrats will claim otherwise, but the fact is that Barack Obama never sold the American public on the things that really had to happen to improve American health care. (The plan he offered as a candidate promised no personal mandate.)
The 2008 election was a mandate for "hope and change," not for Obamacare. Yes, President Obama got the votes he needed in Congress to pass the Affordable Care Act, but he never earned the deep and durable support of the public on this issue.
[See a collection of political cartoons on Obamacare.]
So remember as you campaign in Iowa and New Hampshire: If you promise chocolate cake as a candidate, you will have trouble delivering broccoli as president. And broccoli is almost always what we need.
For the American voters: Do something to improve the American political situation.
I've just spent nearly three weeks in India, where corruption is a chronic complaint. It is a cancer on the system, making every transaction more cumbersome and expensive. Of course, the same was true when I was here in 2005 and in 1989.
The difference this time is that a new political party has emerged with an agenda built explicitly around fighting corruption, the Aam Aadmi Party, or Common Man's Party. In the recent Delhi state elections, it shocked the political establishment by winning nearly half the seats in the state assembly. The effect has been electric. For the first time in decades, there is a sense that the political class is vulnerable and that ordinary voters can force change.
What did you do in 2013 to improve America's governance? How about doing more than that in 2014?

Best Barbecue in Greenville SC
Our favorite is Huntin' Camp BBQ north of Traveler's Rest on US 25 North. Best ribs we have had, maybe ever, and that includes 12 Bones here in Asheville. We stop for lunch on our way from Asheville to Greenville and then get takeout ribs on our way back home. I think everything else is fine but most of our attention is focused on the ribs. Family owned with very friendly and helpful service.
Sounds as if we need to try Mike N Jeff's on one of the trips.
You cannot....in my humble estimation it does not exist. The closest is Henry's but that doesnt stack up with NC,Memphis, STL or KC.....

Flat-racing techniques increase endurance racing times
Dwight Hooten, DVM, formerly a staff veterinarian at the Dubai Equine Hospital and currently in private practice in Padosa
Springs, Colo., has a unique perspective on the way these two equine sports have influenced each other. Hooten's duties in
the United Arab Emirates (UAE) brought him into contact with both types of racing, and he was able to observe training and
management techniques for both flat racing and endurance horses.
"Techniques for speed training initially came to the endurance world from flat racing," says Hooten. "This is the single biggest
factor in the decrease in overall times for elite world-level competition."
"Long, slow distance" was the mantra of the endurance world, and it produced extremely fit horses that could exercise at relatively
slower speeds for long periods of time. American rider Valerie Kanavy won the 1998 World Endurance Championships in Dubai,
covering the 100-mile course in 9:0:7. This was an excellent time, and her average speed of 17.96 kph represented the state
of the sport at that time.
Flat racing and endurance racing are closely intertwined in the UAE, with both types of athletes frequently trained out of
the same barns and often by the same trainers. When some of these trainers began to apply their sprint training, interval
work and other speed-producing techniques to endurance horses, they noticed improvements. Flat-racing trainers taught endurance
trainers how hard horses could be successfully pushed.
Ten years later, in 2008, at the Sheikh Mohammad bin Rashid al Maktoum Endurance Cup, UAE rider Omair Hussain al Bloushi rode
a young Arab mare to a winning 100-mile time of 6:28:28. This amounted to an average time of 24.7 kph (roughly 15 mph). The
last 19-mile loop was ridden at 30.29 kph (endurance rides are contested over a 100-mile course divided into a number of loops
with mandatory veterinary examinations and "holds").
But the record did not stay there. Just two years later, in March 2010, Yousuf Ahmad al Beloushi and an 11-year-old gelding
established a 100-mile record at 5:45:44. These decreases in performance times represented a substantial improvement in speed
in little more than a 10-year period and were a direct result of flat-racing training techniques applied to endurance horses.

The driver's license of 37-year-old Christopher Wright was found beside a body inside a burned-out mobile home near Fort Mountain that caught fire Tuesday evening, officials said.
Capt. John Cherry with the Murray County Sheriff's Office said finding the license means officials "are just about sure who the body is." They are waiting on a report from a state medical examiner to confirm the body is that of Wright. The body was sent to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) crime lab in Atlanta for an autopsy.
"What we know is that Wright didn't show up for work the next day," Cherry said, "so we're supposing it's him."
The cause of the fire is still unknown and officials say they're treating the mobile home like a crime scene.
"We're also waiting on the state fire marshal for a report," Cherry said. "As far as the actual cause of death — whether it was caused by the fire or possibly something else — we won't know that for awhile. He had some head trauma. We're not sure from what yet. I'm not sure how long (the autopsy) will take, but when the report is done we will know more."
Officials with the GBI were brought in by the sheriff's office for their expertise and equipment.
Several neighbors reported a "boom" or "pop" when the mobile home first caught fire on Hensley Road. Cherry said when firefighters arrived at 7:30 p.m. the home was fully involved in fire.
Nearby resident Ed Gregg told The Daily Citizen on Wednesday a man had lived there for about a year.

Volunteer Program: Angeli Domini
In the history of Mount Angel Abbey there have always been special lay people called by God to the hilltop who support the Abbey through the donation of their gifts, their time and their talents. Known as "Angeli Domini," Angels of the Lord, the volunteers hold a special place on the hilltop, providing strength to the community in quiet, humble service.
Many volunteers are Oblates, lay Benedictines associated with Mount Angel Abbey who live under the Rule of Saint Benedict in the world. As part of their 'conversion of heart' they come to the hilltop to pray with the monks and offer service in order to give greater depth to their Benedictine way of prayer, work, and holy reading.
Other volunteers are drawn by the peaceful rhythm of this monastic hilltop, and offer to assist the monastic community in many diverse fields.
When you visit the hilltop, you will find volunteers assisting in the Library, working on the grounds, serving in the Retreat House, helping in the Seminary and participating in event planning and presentation.the Bach Festival Feel free to ask questions or directions of them, for all are happy to assist guests in finding their way. You will discover that the volunteers, like the monks, 'receive everyone as Christ.'
To learn more about the Volunteer Program please contact us.

I know i'm probably jumping the gun with it only being the first week of March, but I want winter to be over so badly. I wanted to share some spring table settings that I hope will inspire you this coming spring. This is especially helpful when planning for Easter or Passover.
Perfect for Easter if you want to go the non-pastel route
A great take on purple without going over the top
(Sometimes all over purple comes off a bit tacky)
I think this may be my next tea party color scheme
So many people shy away from yellow, but I love it! So cheery
Pink and Gold via Citrus & Orange
I usually don't like bright green, but this is lovely
I love this look for a ladies lunch
Has anyone started to plan their Easter or Passover tables yet?

RUMFORD — Visitors at Black Mountain of Maine ski resort on opening day Sunday are in for a surprise thanks to $100,000 in donated labor, equipment and materials.
In the past three months, more than 100 contractors and volunteers across Maine — out of compassion for the ski area — helped the resort expand its Nordic area into a world-class facility
"It's pretty overwhelming," said Roger Arsenault, president of the Black Mountain Board of Directors. "A lot of people with expertise in their field have stepped to the plate."
Those people include Bob Pidacks, the owner of R.S. Pidacks Inc., a rock-crushing and screening business in Livermore.
Pidacks and his crew and equipment blasted and removed 8,000 yards of ledge to widen the Nordic competition stadium by 75 feet to enable mass starts of 250 skiers, Arsenault said.
Pidacks also brought in 3,000 yards of material to fill the area and created a 1-percent grade to the finish line.
"If we had paid for all of that, that was in the $80,000 range and that's what was insurmountable for us," Arsenault said.
Over the past two years, Black Mountain applied for three grants to fund its vision of a $250,000 expansion and stadium timed for next month's U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association's Cross Country Ski Championships.
The resort didn't get the grants, but officials decided to "go for it" anyway, doing what little they could afford. They had to renovate the old base lodge to create cabins for ski waxing, construct a new timing building, widen trails to national specifications and widen the stadium.
"This past year, we had looked for the minimum we had to do and Bob Pidacks ended up doing more than what we paid him for, and that basically opened up the floodgates for people," Arsenault said.
Pidacks said Wednesday he wanted to "give back" to the ski area where he grew up and raced and because his father, Bob Pidacks, and Wendall "Chummy" Broomhall were in the 1952 Olympics in Oslo, Norway. His parents also did a lot of volunteer work at Black Mountain.
"We originally went there to move 3,000 yards of ledge and it got a little out of hand, but I knew they had very limited funds," Pidacks said.
"I probably gave far more than I really planned on, but it was something that had to be done and I felt it was very important for the area and the history of Rumford," he said.
Nichols Brothers Logging of Rumford harvested timber on the mountain to help the resort pay bills with timber proceeds. They had the logs sawed into boards in Andover and donated them for the two-story timing building, resort spokesman Craig Zurhorst said.
High-end cabinetmaker Ben Susla of Freeport donated his skills to build cabinetry in 21 new rentable waxing cabins designed by Skip MacFawn and built in the old ski lodge, Arsenault said.
"Electricians, drywallers, framers, insulators, excavators, technicians of all types, roofers, concrete guys ... the amount of in-kind support that we have received has just been gratifying, almost beyond words," Zurhorst said.

New York City residents whose houses were damaged by Hurricane Sandy are facing the onset of winter — many of them while trying to shelter in those damaged homes. And according to a report in the online Wall Street Journal, there has been only slow progress in a city program intended to get those houses habitable in the short term ("Slow Pace of Flood Repairs a Concern in New York City," by Associated Press).
"Thousands of residents along the New York and New Jersey coastlines still lack power and heat after the October storm and a tidal surge turned basement furnaces and electrical panels into worthless junk," the story says. By mid-December, New York City officials said, 13,600 New Yorkers were still waiting for repair work to start under the city's Rapid Repairs program, while just 2,625 dwellings had received their temporary fix and work was still underway on another 2,800.
Meantime, emergency legislation to provide funding for hurricane recovery to the affected states is bogged down in the lame-duck Congress, as Democrats and Republicans spar over the details, reports the website Politico ("Sandy bill's extras draw attacks from the right," by Kathryn A. Wolf and Burgess Everett).
"Some Republicans are pressing for the bill to be scrubbed of anything that wouldn't meet an urgent need," Politico reports. "That includes the billions of dollars included in the Senate bill for 'mitigation,' which is code for taking steps not only to fix the current problem but to reinforce those systems to withstand a future storm." New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand counters that mitigation is important for public-sector projects: ""The reality is, if you're going to rebuild a subway like this and you don't do it in a way that protects against flooding the next time, then you're wasting your money," she said.
According to the Politico report, House Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers (R-Ky) has said not to expect the relief bill to be ready before Christmas.
