Kalen is an excellent tutor. She is sweet, enthusiastic, committed and responsive to what her student will find most helpful. We are very pleased and consider ourselves very lucky to have her.
Kalen has been wonderful to work with. She contacted us immediately and answered all my questions regarding her experiences and background in teaching ASL. She is well qualified! Kalen shows up on time and is ready to go. She finds out what I am working on in school and makes sure we cover this material. She fine tunes the areas I need to work on and lets me know my weak points but also is very encouraging. My teacher said she noticed improvement in my signing since working with Kalen after 3 sessions! The best thing is I am feeling more confident. I receive detailed summaries after each class on what we worked on and the things I need to work on. She is very helpful, friendly and great at teaching ASL. I would highly recommend her.

- References
- Cited By
- psychotherapy research;
- empirically supported therapy;
- comparative efficacy of psychother-apies
Luborsky et al.'s conclusion that there are no meaningful differences in the efficacy of various psychothera-pies should be reconsidered for the following reasons: (a) errors in data analysis, (b) exclusion of research on many types of clients (e.g., children and adolescents), (c) faulty generalization to comparisons between therapies that have never been made, and (d) erroneous assumption that the average difference between all sorts of treatments for all sorts of problems can be assumed to represent the difference between any two types of treatment for a given problem. Concern for clients' welfare demands that psychologists be very wary of accepting the Dodo bird verdict.

Skin Geneiis works for any age
Feb 09, 2008
By Mary Jo Ray
L'Oreal markets this product to younger women, but I have found (and some dermatologists seem to agree) that the ingredients can be beneficial to any age. I am over 60 and have noticed an improvement in my skin since I have been using Skin Genesis. I use it in combination with L'Oreal's Future e moisturizer and have been faithful to use it every morning for over a month now.
I wish that L'Oreal did not market to age groups--I believe that is a mistake and costs them market share in a super competitive business.
There is NO magic bullet in skin care, but this is as efficacious as any product I have used in a long time; and I recommend it for those of any age.

Magic Serum
Nov 17, 2008
By M. Milano "mail order junkie"
I'm 23 years old, and I USED to have splotchy, rough skin until I started using skin genesis serum concentrate along with the night treatment complex. I've only been using it for two weeks now and I've noticed a dramatic difference. My skin is extremely softer, smoother, luminous, and more even-toned. I use it every night, and every morning I wake up to better results each day. I have people telling me I look like i'm 17. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. It's an effective skin care line for such a great price!

best over others tried
Jun 09, 2011
By J. White
I just wanted to say that I am very happy to see this product here. When loreal started the youth code line I bought the same looking bottle thinking it was this serum. I was wrong. It looks similar but it is definatly not. I used the entire bottle of the youth code hoping I would see improvement over time like with the skin genesis strenghtening serum but I never did. I was begining to think the serum was discontinued. I have also tired the clinque "even better" line and did not see results that nearly compared to this. I used Skin Genesis every day along with an AVON daily moisturizer and I can honestly say that my skin looked great. No blochiness, no bumps, no pimples, etc. I even was complimented on how great my skin looked. When I say this product made my skin glow, it was noticible and I have yet to find something else that compared. It does feel weird when first applying.. like I am putting a gel on my face, but two pumps...rubbed all over my face and let it dry before applying moisturizer (usually one or two mins) and I am good to go. Thank you amazon for keeping this product in stock!

Awesome, Effective Skin Smoother
Dec 14, 2008
By Claire J. Tinsley "cjenn"
I am in love with the whole Skin Genesis line. It is very high quality without the high prices. Well, actually for a drugstore brand it is pricey, but not compared to department store brands. This serum really makes my skin super smooth, like baby skin and it has the perfect hydration without any greasy residue whatsoever. My 41 year-old skin looks fifteen years younger, at least that's what they tell me and due to good genes perhaps and Skin Genesis, it continues to glow with the look of good health and beauty. Great great product!

NASA officials say a contaminant, a type of oily residue, has been detected in the unpressurized portion or the trunk of the SpaceX Dragon capsule. The concern is that if this oil were to vaporize in space, it could contaminate a costly experiment that uses expensive and delicate optics.
The experiment, called Optical Payload for Lasercomm Science, or OPALS, is one of 150 experiments that were supposed to launch to the International Space Station this weekend as part of a $1.5 billion dollar contract with SpaceX.
On Thursday, the launch was canceled when this mysterious oily residue was discovered on the thermal blanket that is used to protect the OPALS experiment inside the SpaceX Dragon capsule. The launch was originally set for March 16.
SpaceX has yet to determine what the substance is, or how it got there, but the concern is that it could vaporize and get into the optics or "eyes" of OPALS, which includes a powerful prototype laser critical to the success of the experiment. OPALS will test high speed communications using this prototype laser.
To clean up the rocket, SpaceX is going to have to de-stack a portion of the assembled spacecraft -- basically, take the capsule off the top of the Falcon 9 rocket -- pull the experiment out and clean off this residue, as well as try to figure out how it got there.
This is expected to take some time, and NASA officials say they do not expect to launch any sooner than the end of March.

How can mobile device data be lost on a peer-to-peer (P2P) network?
Peer-to-peer telephone services, such as Skype, Free World Dialup (FWD) and Ooma, offer users a way to save significant money on telephone services. But how well do they protect your data?
While this is an interesting technology, I would not recommend that it be used for any private communications. Peer-to-peer services allow telephone calls to be routed through the privately owned equipment of one or more unknown individuals. This raises a number of confidentiality, integrity and availability concerns, and little information is available about what, if any, security controls these services have put in place to protect...

your telephone calls.
Would you be upset if an unknown third party was able to eavesdrop on your call? What if they were able to reroute it to a different destination? Or if they were able to disrupt your service? If the answer to all three of these questions is "no," then by all means give peer-to-peer telephone a shot. Otherwise, until the security implications are addressed, you probably want to think twice about adopting this emerging technology.

Rio Dental Polisher

Dental Polisher is an easy to use dental hygiene and tooth whitening regime, helping to eliminate the dangerous build up of plaque, whilst also removing stains and reducing discolouration.
Plaque is one of the underlying factors behind the cause of tooth decay. It is a colourless, sticky layer of bacteria that builds up on the surface of the teeth which reacts with the sugars and starches found in the foods we eat and drink. This reaction produces acids which attack the tooth enamel, leaving it vulnerable to cavities.
Regular cleaning in-between the teeth and below the gum line should be an essential part of your dental regime to help prevent plaque build-up and gum disease. This can be achieved with the Dental Polisher which comes complete with an interdental pik, plaque removal tool and stain eraser.
The dental polisher will help to remove stains and discolouration on the front teeth. It will also shine and polish the front teeth.
Interdental Pik is used to remove food particles, plaque and tartar build-up from the hard to reach places between your teeth and gums.
Plaque Removal Tool allows plaque and tartar build up to be wiped away from the surrounding areas on the surface of the teeth and gums.
• No more than a few seconds should be spent polishing each tooth. Too much polishing can cause slow erosion of tooth enamel.
• This product is for single person use to avoid any possibility of cross infection of gum disease.
• The dental polisher must not be used more than twice a month. You are advised to brush your teeth twice a day and continue to use the interdental pik, plaque removal tool and stain eraser whenever needed.RIO helpline: 01242 702 345.

Remember Me
In this episode, James Randi answers selected user comments, spends some time explaining why 3X and 6x preparations are not truly homeopathic, and explores an unsolicited "professional" horoscope reading he recently received via YouTube.
Randi points out some interesting discrepancies in the reading.
To comment on the video, visit YouTube.
Sandra Quincy writes from Australia to tell us about her successful anti-quackery activities "down under."
I thought that you might be interested in the success that I have had with getting a magnetic product removed from sale in Australia. It all started when a Century Mail booklet fell out of my October 2008 Reader's Digest. I looked at it out of curiosity and saw an ad for this little plastic case called the Sex Magnet. It claimed to increase a man's libido and promote oxygen and blood flow if the man put it into his trouser pocket. I was so angry at such a stupid claim that I wrote to the Australian Complaints Resolution Panel. They investigate therapeutic goods. They responded to my complaint and said that they would investigate the claim when they next met. I got a reply last week.
Swift contributor and Skeptoid Brian Dunning has asked us to post this messsage and invite you all:

WOO IN REVIEW: Lost Time Travel Contest Finalists
The Lost Time Travel Contest now closed for entries, but it's not over yet! Read over these three entries and vote in the comments (with words, not with the Vote Up/Vote Down button) for your favorite explanation of time travel. The winner of the contest will be announced at 12:00pm tomorrow, and that lucky individual will receive an autographed copy of Phil Plait's Death From the Skies!
written by jpedigo, January 23, 2009 I'm going with option two: "If you believe that time travel is possible in reality, write a comment explaining how, why, under what circumstances, and what would be possible."
Were it not for three notable events that shared a common thread, it might have been an ordinary Saturday morning during the summer of 2007.
The first of these events occurred in California where some 200 invited attendees descended upon the Google campus to attend the second annual 'Science Foo Camp,' a conference that draws together leading scientists and experts in technology and public policy from around the world. The format of SciFoo is unusual for lacking any predetermined agenda and being participant-driven where each attendee is expected to give a talk of some kind. Among those attending for the first time were two names familiar to skeptics, PZ Myers and James Randi.

Perhaps you are talking about the Argentina Nobel Peace Prize winner, Adolfo Perez Esquivel, who was arrested and tortured during the "dirty" war and has nothing but praise for the Pope?
Perhaps you should be the one to do a thorough and complete background investigation before making such an unsubstantiated statement in a not so subtle attempt to denigrate the Pope.

Being in the path of Tornado Alley, Oklahoma is a prime target. Since 1893, 23 tornados have hit Moore, Okla., and surrounding neighborhoods alone, killing 100-plus people. But residential tornado shelters are still more of an exception than a rule in the Sooner State.This year's round of tornadoes, which caused at least $2 billion in property damage, would seem the perfect catalyst for changing Oklahomans' minds in favor of installing shelters into existing homes or ordering them with new builds. And hints of pent-up demand are becoming more evident. "I'm swamped for the next five months," said Robert Webb, owner of Oklahoma City–based shelter supplier ArmourVault, after the Moore weather event.In late May, Darla Cheek, marketing and communications director for the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Association of Realtors, found herself No. 541 on a waiting list to have a shelter installed in her home at Winfield, a subdivision on the edge of Moore.But homeowner demand for shelters rarely extends beyond storm season in early spring. "I would not say we push them," says Anita Brown, director of marketing for Home Creations, a production builder in Moore that offers tornado shelters as options in its new homes. "We make them available; it's a personal choice."Widespread acceptance of shelters is unlikely unless suppliers and builders can crack Oklahomans' resistance to spending money on something that, in their minds, they might never need. And as long as shelters are optional in new-home purchases, "hardwood floors and granite countertops just win out," says Steve Shoemaker, director of marketing for Norman, Okla.–based Ideal Homes, which included shelters in about 24 of the 306 homes it closed in Oklahoma City last year.Shelters: Why do I need One?Tornado shelters are a hard sell because, just like Californians and earthquakes, Oklahomans always expect tornadoes to smash someone else's house."The probability of being affected by a tornado is still pretty small," observes Ernst Kiesling, executive director of the National Storm Shelter Association (NSSA) in Lubbock, Texas. As hard as it is to believe, some Oklahomans have never actually seen a tornado firsthand.In fact, Lloyd's of London puts the odds of a structure in Tornado Alley ever taking a direct hit from a tornado at 5,000 to 1.Violent tornadoes accounted for less than one-tenth of 1 percent of all tornadoes recorded, and less than one-quarter of those tornadoes generated wind speeds above 110 mph."We have had so many storms over the years that people almost become resigned," says local builder Caleb McCaleb. That said, the majority of McCaleb Homes' customers order tornado shelters with their new-home purchases. McCaleb acknowledges that his clientele is more affluent than typical buyers here. But he's never understood why any person who readily shells out $25,000 for a pickup truck will balk reflexively at spending $3,000 for an underground storm shelter. (Factory-built safe rooms cost about $2,500 to $6,000, according to manufacturers.)That attitude might change if shelters and safe rooms enhanced property value. "We have appraisal issues down here, so I doubt any appraiser would give you [credit] for a shelter right now," says Robert Crout, a land developer and current president of the Central Oklahoma HBA.Appraisers have viewed storm shelters as they would lawn sprinkler systems, says Keith Taggert, president of the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Association of Realtors: something that people like to have but won't pay full value for at resale. Although that could change, says Taggert, who recently talked with an appraiser who gives credit to shelters in his evaluations in the wake of the storm.Mandates: builders Say NOProperty value is really beside the point, as shelters protect people, not structures. And no one disputes the unassailable logic that tornado shelters provide homeowners with greater safety. Chris Ramseyer, an associate professor of civil engineering and environmental science at the University of Oklahoma, tells BUILDER that several of the houses he inspected after the Moore tornado looked like "porcupines," with shards of wood sticking out of exteriors they penetrated.The lethal potential of tornadoes to kill people trapped inside of houses has led Ramseyer to conclude that shelters should be mandatory in areas susceptible to annual tornadoes. Moore Mayor Glenn Lewis agrees, and he recently proposed an ordinance that would require shelters in all new single- and multifamily construction.However, the state's governor, Mary Fallin, opposes them—and so do local builders and their trade associations.NSSA's Kiesling, also a civil engineering professor at Texas Tech University, is concerned less about mandates than with what he says are unfounded assertions by builders, architects, and other "experts" that in-ground shelters are safer than aboveground safe rooms. "There are standards from the national code council and FEMA … for building safe rooms where occupants will be safe. And it's hard to make an in-ground shelter ADA-compliant," he says, referring to the Americans with Disabilities Act.Local observers point out that many of the destroyed Moore homes predated the 2009 International Residential Code (IRC), which Oklahoma adopted as its first statewide building code two years ago. That code requires resistance to 90 mph wind loads at a 3-second burst 33 feet above the ground. (The 2012 code, which the state is reviewing, requires resistance up to 120 mph.)It is not known how many of Oklahoma's 77 counties comply with the state code, primarily because the Oklahoma Uniform Building Code Commission doesn't have enforcement power, according to its administrator Mary Oberly.Tornado proof: is it possible?The majority of Oklahomans never encounter a tornado. While tornadoes are violent and the big ones make headlines, they are not all that common and they affect only a small area. You can buy a lot of insurance for what it costs to fortify a home to withstand even a small tornado.Still, some Tornado Alley homeowners go beyond code and add a safe room or storm shelter. According to Curtis McCarty, a builder of wind-resistant homes in Oklahoma, what has been learned about building homes in hurricane areas may not work in tornado-prone regions."A tornado is very different than a hurricane," McCarty says. "The winds are much stronger and confined to a much more compact area. The winds from a tornado come from all directions in a circular motion in a very short time frame, often seconds, whereas hurricane winds are generally from one direction for an extended period of time."The builder says some meteorologists estimate that the winds at the core of an EF5 tornado could top 400 mph. But Kiesling insists that this wind load estimate is a myth when ground-level winds are measured. He adds that the Moore tornado never exceeded 200 mph, so storm shelters—which are designed to withstand winds of 250 mph—should be safe.Marvin Haworth, president of the Moore Association of Home Builders, concurs with McCarty. "I was here for both the 1999 and 2013 tornadoes," Haworth says. "While the wind speeds of the 1999 tornado may have been higher, the destruction from the 2013 tornado is much worse. It was a slow-moving storm and just sat in one place for an extended period of time and kept hammering away at structures, chewing up everything in its path."While rebuilding homes in Moore after 1999, McCarty began investigating ways to make them stronger. In 2011, several smaller storms caused significant damage in Moore from simple microbursts—short gusts of winds upward of 100 mph. So McCarty put together a program with FEMA, the Oklahoma HBA, Owens Corning, Simpson Strong-Tie, and State Farm Insurance to develop and build the state's first high-wind-resistant home.The design ties the roof, walls, and floors to the concrete slab with metal connectors and threaded rod, and the door and window openings are fortified. "After the 1999 Moore tornado, researchers discovered that if we can keep the roof on a house, we can limit damage in many cases," McCarty explains.But he adds: "These techniques are designed to make the home wind-resistant up to about an EF3. They are not designed to withstand a direct hit from an EF5. Not much can."Jim Gendill, a licensed structural engineer with Anasazi Engineering in Edmond, Okla., agrees. "Not many structures can withstand a direct hit from an EF5 tornado. But 800 feet away from the tornado, many homes are still standing, some with only minor damage."For years, Ideal Homes has built with steel connectors and ties, says Todd Booze, the company's president of construction. He contends that if a house is 50 feet from a tornado, it generally will stay together with ties, connectors, and straps that add about $2,500 to the overall cost of construction.The question, however, is how much more do you put into the house? "Even if codes called for resistance up to 150 or 160 mph, we're not going to see that [in Oklahoma] unless we have a severe tornado," Booze says. "And if you take a direct hit from a tornado, the house will get torn apart."Much more common and still very damaging are smaller EF0-EF3 tornados, along with straight line winds of up to 100 mph. Homes reinforced with hurricane clips and roof ties are much more likely to withstand a glancing blow from these more common storms with only minimal damage, lowering both repair and insurance costs.The builders we spoke with said constructing a home that can withstand a direct hit from an EF5 tornado is doable, but not very practical. "Nobody could afford it," McCarty says.Rebuilding: Again and AgainAny discussions about tornado shelters and high-wind resistance homes are relevant only to residents and businesses in the afflicted areas intending to stay and rebuild. Whether they lost electricity or their entire house, some 48,000 Oklahomans were affected by the Moore tornado and the storms that hit the Oklahoma City area again 11 days later. And inevitably, a certain percentage of families—who can't afford to wait for their houses to be rebuilt—are going to move somewhere else. But if history is any guide, most Oklahomans will hold on and stay.Crout, the Central Oklahoma HBA president, predicts that homes will be rebuilt, "but not by the people who lived in them. Builders will buy up those lots and rebuild for other buyers."Several local builders say they were at or near production capacity before the Moore tornado, so they probably would not get too involved in the rebuilding effort. "It's not their business model," says Ken Ford, former manager of NAHB's disaster assistance program. "You're dealing with scattered lots, where the owners are trying to salvage the slab or pad."At least one production builder is trying to participate in the rebuilding effort. Home Creations has assembled special teams for the purpose of rebuilding and selling destroyed homes in Moore. Those teams are headed up by one of Home Creations' sales managers, who lost her own home to the tornado.The Moore tragedy also might be an opportunity for United-Bilt Homes, an on-your-lot builder that operates 22 offices in five southern states. The builder closed about 60 homes in Oklahoma last year, and its office is located on the outskirts of Moore. Mike Johnson, its general manager, says his company could triple its capacity in that market without making major changes to its business "because we wouldn't have to travel that much."Terri Akers, executive director of the Central Oklahoma HBA, expects many of her group's 300 builder-members to eventually "step up" and get involved in the rebuilding effort. But McCaleb and other builders say they are worried about not having access to enough construction labor once the rebuilding gets going in the next six to nine months.Labor shortages would leave the door open for out-of-state contractors to fill the void. Oklahoma doesn't require builders to be licensed, but to discourage fly-by-nighters and predators, cities issue permits to builders only if they can show they have worker's compensation and general liability insurance coverage. And Oklahoma banks require all builders to carry risk insurance while a house is under construction.Once Moore gets to the point where rebuilding is feasible again, builders are likely to interest its anxious residents with off-the-shelf, higher-performance options that are within buyers' budgets and don't rely on proprietary technologies, says Alex Lukachko, general manager for the engineering and architectural firm Building Science Corp. in Somerville, Mass.Lukachko's opinions are informed in part by the time he spent in Greensburg, Kan., a few months after the city was wiped out by an EF5 tornado in 2007. BSC was in the community of 1,400 people under the auspices of the DOE's Building America program. Wind-resistant construction using ICFs or SIPs "didn't play out financially" for Greensburg's residents, recalls Lukachko, especially those who weren't sure what insurance and government assistance would cover financially. So BSC leaned instead toward the simple and practical: roof tie-downs, hurricane clips, and threaded rods to hold houses onto their foundations. BSC also encouraged owners to include "hardened shelters" within the homes."In Greensburg, we were proposing energy-efficient new construction with a relatively low cost—between $90,000 and $120,000 per house," he says. "But many of the houses in the area were only worth a fraction of that. The average sale price was something like $75,000. What this means is that the resources are just not there to pay for average-sized homes and at the same time protect them against flying trees, 2x4s, etc."Lukachko recalls that the BSC had similar problems rebuilding to higher standards after Hurricane Katrina. "This is a hard pill to swallow when your community has been destroyed and you are trying to rebuild your life. The most important thing is expedient construction with reasonable solutions to build homes inexpensively that people will want to live in."

General Information
EC Number: 126.96.36.199 (A member of the Hydrolases, Acting on ether bonds, Ether hydrolases)
Enzyme Name: leukotriene-A4 hydrolase
Biological Species: Homo sapiens (Human)
Catalytic Chain UniprotKB Accession Codes:
Representative PDB Code: 1hs6 - STRUCTURE OF LEUKOTRIENE A4 HYDROLASE COMPLEXED WITHBESTATIN. (Resolution = 1.95 Å).
Overall Reaction:
Overall Comment: Leukotriene-A4 hydrolase is a bifunctional zinc metalloenzyme which performs epoxide hydrolysis (shown here) and also shows aminopeptidase activity from a common active site. The mechanism shown here is one of two possibilities. The alternative mechanism suggested includes the formation of an ester intermediate. In this scheme the zinc alone activates and opens the epoxide and a carboxylate of Glu271 attacks the substrate at C6 to form an ester intermediate. In a concerted SN2' reaction this ester can then be attacked by a hydroxo group at C12 and a negative charge can move along the conjugated triene system eventually leading to an alkyl-oxygen cleavage. However such cleavages of esters are rare reactions although not unknown [1].

The long-awaited River Summit is scheduled to start this morning, focusing on the Lower Owens River Project and what, if anything, should be done to meet the goals and expectations of the project.
But, the issue of whether the three-day series of meetings and tours will be open to the public has created a contentious situation ŌĆ£from the get go,ŌĆØ admits Owens Valley Committee President Mary Roper.
Francisco ŌĆśFrankŌĆÖ Antonio Grazide III
Born in La Puente to Helen Walsh and Francisco Grazide II on March 13, 1913, Frank Grazide lived a long and prosperous life, passing away peacefully in Bishop on July 16 at the age of 101.
Frank is lovingly remembered by his family and friends as a remarkable man who in his later years defied odds by living an active and interesting life, with the vigor of a man decades younger than his true age.
Dog so excited to see owner, it passes out.
A Superior Court decision in Sacramento County may have implications for groundwater pumping statewide, down the line.
On July 15, the court ruled in favor of Environmental Law Foundation, agreeing that groundwater pumping that interferes with navigable waterways does come under the public trust doctrine. Thus, the court ruled, respondent Siskiyou County must consider the impact of pumping on navigable waterways in the process of issuing well permits.
Family members of an elderly Bishop woman who went missing almost two decades ago are offering a reward for any information that may provide some resolution in the case.
The Bishop Police Department investigated when Jennie Wyckoff, 90, disappearance 19 years ago, but the trail went cold and officials ultimately declared her dead after three years.
Earlier this year, Bishop Police Chief Chris Cater, at the request of the family, decided to revisit the case to see if modern technology could provide any new leads.
In an effort to continue supporting local cancer patients, Eastern Sierra Breast Cancer Alliance is currently seeking matching funds for its upcoming 14th Annual 5K Walk/10K Fun Run fundraising event.
Money raised at the family-friendly fun run, which will be held on Oct. 18 and start and end at Bishop City Park, assists Inyo and Mono ESBCA clients who have been diagnosed with any kind of cancer and who apply to ESBCA for assistance.
BISHOP ŌĆō The Owens Valley Committee released an open invitation to the Lower Owens River Project ŌĆ£River SummitŌĆØ meet scheduled to begin Tuesday, July 29. However, the meeting is not open to the public. Those attending are the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power staff, Inyo County staff, consultants Ecosystem Sciences and parties to the Memorandum of Understanding.
According to LADWP, there will be a public meeting with Inyo County staff later this year to discuss the project.
Samuel Robert Wasson
Samuel Robert Wasson, 74, resident of the Owens Valley for more than 35 years, passed away on July 17, 2014 surrounded by his family.
A two-vehicle collision on Main Street (U.S. Highway 395) in Bishop at the intersection of Mac Iver Street blocked the southbound lanes of traffic for a short time as emergency crews cleared the scene. The collision occurred at about 4:30 p.m. Wednesday afternoon. It is unknown if there were any injuries. Inyo County Sheriff's deputies, Bishop Police officers and Symons Ambulance Service responded.
The first wave of 2014 Badwater 135 ultramarathoners took off from Lone Pine to Horseshow Meadows, the first leg of the grueling foot race at 6 a.m. Tuesday morning with second and third waves heading out at 7 and 8 a.m.
Harvey Lewis, a 38-year-old teacher from Cincinnati, Ohio, was on that final 8 a.m. leg and, after 23 hours, 52 minutes and 55 seconds, was the first runner to reach the finish at Whitney Portal, just shy of 8 a.m. Tuesday morning.

Engagement Science: Making the Most of Your Social Media Strategy (Infographic)
Posted on November 8th 2012
Social engagement is both a science and an art. I analyzed data from over 100 companies of all sizes to determine the best ways to maximize social engagement. The findings are telling; for instance: did you know that posting to three or more channels increases engagement by over 40%? Or that posts on Saturday received more engagement than any other day of the week?
Check out the infographic below for more insight into the science of engagement, and pick up my book Stand Out Social Marketing: How to Rise Above the Noise, Differentiate Your Brand, and Build an Outstanding Online Presence for a complete guide to maximizing your social media returns.
Have you found this to be true in your social media strategy? Weigh in on Twitter.
This is a great and informative infographic. In terms of placement and channels, there's a way to bring multiple channels into one place- via social media aggregator (I personally prefer Postano). This way, you can bring it back to a business website, embed the Postano containing all of your social media channels in a visually engaging format and engaging audiences that either aren't on social or aren't following you on social. This way, you're gaining more mileage from your social media strategy and content.
