Words are the main form of communication between humans. They help establish a sense of understanding between individuals. However, the way words are defined vary according to each person. This is because of their particular upbringing, and/or events that have occurred in their life to alter their understanding of said term. With this in mind, it is very difficult (or even impossible) to know how certain words will impact others. Whether seen with little meaning or great significance, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and feelings as to what context words should be used in.

How Should Parents Raise Their Children?
There is no set agenda to how a parent is supposed to set regulations for their children. The only case in which such an idea is legitimate is if there are particular outcomes a parent is trying to avoid for their child. Setting rules without the proper explanation towards how they help the child long term will only make them feel like they would have to sneak around. The method of regulation may even make the child feel that breaking said rules will punish them throughout their lifetime. The adequate key to parenting is not in keeping children in line, but in giving them standards to become decent adults. The main point of setting limits, nevertheless, is showing your attentiveness and care in what the subject is doing with their life.

Mind Blowing Music (2): Awesomeness
A few of these songs will be from that station, but a lot of it is from songs I've overheard and just had to look up or download so that I can listen to its greatness again.

A Memoir: The Boy With The Tablet
The Stunned and the Drenched
Before I came to Williamstown, I lived in a city known as Clarkston in east Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta is different from New Jersey in a lot of ways. One of the biggest differences I've noticed in that area was the amount of diverse cultures embraced. Considering nationalities exposed out there, it gave everyone the opportunity to embrace each other's customs and establish a peaceful environment. On the contrary, it also gave the opportunity for the worst of customs to exposed.

The Glass Castle: As Depressing As A School Book Can Get
So this week, my class started reading our next book: The Glass Castle. Over the weekend, I have to read up to page 57 and finish the study guide for it. I don't even think I'm on page 30 yet, and I already want to throw the book out the window like Bradley Cooper did on Silver Lining's Playbook.

The Artistic Art of Aging Artistry
I had decided when I was 14 that I would dedicate myself to being a part of the performing arts. It was mainly because of this indie film I got from Red-box that made me realize that movies don't have to be blockbusters, and can touch people's hearts without being expensive or popular. Kind of like the difference between basic, typical store-bought pastries and rare sentimental pastries made from scratch. It was enough to inspire me to reach people in the theater, and big screens.
This was the art I chose to partake in. But of course, there are plenty of other arts to be a part of. But I realized something about these arts: they're only based on pop culture.

Subgenre PBR&B: Music For Hip Romantics
So there's this new label for music (new to me) that caught my attention called PBR&B. It's a genre in music that is heavily coated with copious amounts of smooth Peanut Butter.
Not really. It really stands for Pabst Blue Ribbon... Rhythm And Blues. The name comes from the stereotypical favoring of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer from hipsters. This derivative of R&B is also known as alternative or hipster R&B. Could be derogatory. Most think so. It's a little clever, but not clever enough.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., May 7 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Speaking to a crowd of more than 170 bioscience leaders at the MichBio Annual Meeting in Ann Arbor Wednesday night, Stephen Rapundalo, Ph.D., MichBio president and CEO, said that a growing awareness by state legislators of the industry's economic growth potential has culminated in the formation of a Task Force on Biotechnology as part of the Senate's Economic Development & Regulatory Reform Committee as well as a House Subcommittee focused on biosciences as part of the Committee on New Economy & Quality of Life.
Both the Task Force and the Subcommittee will have a common focus and are of equal legislative stature. The Task Force will be chaired by Sen. Randy Richardville (R) and the Subcommittee will be chaired by Rep. Ed Clemente.
Plans are for both bodies to hold a series of statewide hearings through the summer and early fall to gather testimony from the industry. Once collected and compiled, the information would be used to develop new policy and legislatives measures that would enable the economic promise of the bio-industry. Michigan is the fourth state in the country to constitute a standing legislative body focused on the biosciences or biotechnology. The other states include California, Minnesota and Illinois. It is the only state to have such legislative groups in both the Senate and the House.
"The Senate Task Force and House Subcommittee should bring to bear more legislative muscle that will hopefully translate into additional resources for sustaining and growing Michigan's biosciences industry," Rapundalo said. He also noted that, "In concert with the Biosciences Legislative Caucus serving as a broader interest group, Michigan now has a powerful 'one-two' punch that will greatly enhance the stature of our industry within the state's economy."
Rapundalo noted that the Biosciences Legislative Caucus is a group of

Massacre at Mont Tremblant
Yesterday we had driven for several hours from Quebec City to Mont Tremblant. We were greeted on arrival by a cheerful Swiss man and a couple of Raccoons.

After a light dinner Nicole and David went out to find some action. Noel and I decided we'd had enough excitement for one day and spent a quiet night ...

Nicole has just gone to bed. It is about 8.15pm. We will head off to bed by about 10.00pm. Big day tomorrow! This is why we are here!! Hopefully tomorrow works out for Nicole.
Footy results were pretty mixed in Melbourne. Would have preferred Essendon to have won but good to see Sydney Swans are still in the mix.

We stayed in 2 BR unit #21 and while I would stay again owning to the location the unit is in serious need of a renovation: from the sixties era Air King system in the bathroom, plug in track lighting with leads hanging from the ceiling to the 17" TVs and spotty wifi; this place needs about 20K worth of updates. The deck however with modern grill and an updated kitchen plus the wood burning fireplace would make me return albeit with a few grumbles. It is Vail after all and underneath the facade most of the condos were built in the sixties and could use updating. One more thing to consider is the proximity to the fire station and the nightly sirens but if you've been skiing you'll sleep right through it.

AAWC – Apne Aap Women's Collective
Apne Aap Women's Collective (AAWC) was founded in 1998 to address the plight of women trafficked into brothel-based prostitution and their children with centers in Falkland Road and subsequently in Kamathipura. While serving the women in sex trade, AAWC realized that the daughters of the Umeed women were at a great risk of being coerced into prostitution due to their extensive exposure to the red light district. Also, the toddlers of the women were often found idling on the streets while their mothers were soliciting with clients. As a result, AAWC started 3 programs: Umeed (hope) for women in brothel-based prostitution, Udaan (flight) for the daughters of the women and Umang (joy) for the toddlers. The services provided to the 3 programs are finance, health, education, empowerment, recreation and shelter home placement services.

Today's wounded warriors return from combat to face an overwhelming landscape: Beyond readjusting to civilian life, there are injuries to cope with, scarce jobs to find and broken connections to mend. But some new solutions are becoming available that troops can fit in their pocket and use anytime once they're home.
The marketplace for mobile apps has exploded, including within the military space. There are apps for handling traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder, and apps for job-hunting resources. Government agencies are collaborating to get resources delivered to troops through a medium with which they're highly familiar – their smart phones and tablets.
Recently the Army announced a comprehensive smart phone app that provides troops with a guide to mobile resources including medical coordination, compensation and benefits and reintegration into daily life outside the military.
Another new app links wounded warriors through video. It can help connect troops back to their units, or put them in touch with others who have similar injuries and experiences.
The Injured Military Personnel Assisting Combat Troops (IMPACT) app for iPad connects users in first-person interviews, both pre-recorded and live, like Skype or Google+ chats. It also makes use of multi-media content – including throughout the counter-IED community, where information has the potential to save lives.
"IMPACT stems from visits to Walter Reed and Bethesda [Army medical centers], where we talked to troops who were saying, 'I can't wait to get back to my unit,'" said Ken Falke, co-founder of Shoulder 2 Shoulder, which developed the app. "In terms of the big picture, we're hoping IMPACT can help protect troops. A wounded warrior who forgot his metal detector [in combat] and lost his legs to an IED can use this to tell guys in the theater, 'Hey, don't forget your metal detector.' They can share lessons learned."
IMPACT is a different spin than some of the other apps geared for use by troops, but it's part of a bigger movement that harnesses the growing power of mobile technology.
"It's an obvious trend – people are looking for help, and people are looking how to help," Falke said. "We know that linking people to those with similar life experiences is a very positive opportunity for morale, intervention, therapy and connecting people who are alike and want to share and connect to the combat theater. They want to be part of something."
IMPACT is a free app that will be available May 1 in the iTunes store.

In the free clinic for migrants run by the Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, where she volunteers as a nurse, Sister Aziza examines the African refugees and listens to their unbearable stories of slavery. She sees burns and whip marks on the body of the men who fled to Israel though the Sinai. Ran Cohen, a colleague at Physicians for Human Rights says: "If people are able to wake up every morning and keep hope, it is because what Aziza is telling and doing."
She received an honor from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her work with NGO Physicians for Human rights-Israel.

Buy the Casio EX-F1
The SLR-like Casio EXILIM Pro EX-F1 has a high-speed six megapixel CMOS image sensor, and is capable of shooting at full resolution for up to 60 frames, at a truly staggering 60 frames per second. Cleverly, Casio has made it possible to adjust the burst-mode rate between 1 and 60 frames per second, trading off shooting speed for burst length up to the 60 frame burst limit.
The Casio F1's speed isn't just in still-image mode - you can also capture 60 fields-per-second movies at 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, and there are several lower-resolution movie modes that bring unheard of framerates. At 512 × 384 pixels the Pro EX-F1 can capture 300 frames per second, and this doubles to 600 fps at 432 × 192 pixels. At the lowest 336 × 96 pixel resolution, this doubles once more to a truly jaw-dropping 1200 frames per second.
The Casio Pro EX-F1 includes a 12x optical zoom lens, electronic viewfinder with 202k pixels, 2.8" LCD display with 230k pixels, CCD-RAW format, and SD / MMC storage. We're pretty sure Casio's got a winner on its hands with the EX-F1. Even if the $1,000 pricetag might get you an entry-level DSLR and a couple of lenses, it won't get you the speed you'll find in the Casio EX-F1!
The Casio EXILIM Pro EX-F1 ships from March 2008.

This article was previously published under Q192641
On This Page
If you create a combination chart of the Column-Area, Line-Column, or Line-Column on 2-Axes chart types, you may want to change the number of series plotted on each chart type. The Chart Wizard automatically takes half of the series (or one more than half, if there is an odd number of series) and makes it one chart type on the primary axis. It then puts the rest of the series as the other chart type on the secondary axis. If you want to change a particular series to the other chart type, or if you want to change the number of series in a particular chart type, you must edit the chart after you create it.
Because columns should appear side by side and areas typically appear stacked, all series that belong together must be on the same axis to appear as expected.
For example, Microsoft Excel places a column series plotted on the secondary axis in front of a column series plotted against the primary axis. In many cases, the overlay series obscures or overlaps the primary series.
Therefore, if you want to change a series from one chart type to the other in a combination chart, you must change both the chart type and the axis used.
Moving a SeriesThe following procedure describes the general steps you would use to move a series from a column to an area, an area to a column, or a line to a column in a combination chart.
NOTE: You must complete both step 2 and 3 to get the columns to display properly as a group and the areas to stack as a group, but you can complete these steps in either order.
NOTE: Not all chart types should be combined. In Excel 97, if you select a chart type that does not logically compare data in combination with existing chart types, you may receive the following error message:
However, it is possible at times to manually create illogical combinations of chart types (such as bars and columns, or pie and columns) without getting such a warning message.
Some chart types cannot be combined with other chart types. Select a different chart type.
The following example illustrates the steps you would use to change a series from a column series to an area series in a column-area chart.

British High Commissioner to Bangladesh
We develop and maintain relations between the United Kingdom and Bangladesh.
We deal with a wide range of political, prosperity, security, consular and immigration issues of interest to the UK and Bangladesh.
Together with our office in Sylhet we provide consular assistance to British nationals in Bangladesh. The Department for International Development Bangladesh's development programme covers governance issues, economic growth and commercial relationships, climate change, disaster preparedness and poverty reduction.
For information on whether you need a visa to travel to the United Kingdom and how to apply, please see the UK Visas & Immigration page.
Visit our travel advice for Bangladesh for information, news and updates, to ensure you stay safe, avoid problems, and make informed decisions when living or travelling abroad.
Our guide Support for British Nationals Abroad sets out the steps that British nationals can take to stay safe abroad, and provides details on what help the Foreign & Commonwealth Office can provide if you do get into difficulty overseas.
How to renew or replace your British passport if you live outside the UK and information on getting replacement travel documents if your passport is lost or stolen.
If you are travelling urgently and your passport is not available, you may be able to apply for an emergency travel document (ETD).
If your passport has been lost you will need a police report and English translation before an ETD can be issued. If you need to apply for an ETD, please click here.
UK Consular birth registrations and death registrations in Bangladesh has been transferred from the British High Commission Dhaka to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in the UK.
There are no changes to the entitlement to register a birth or death. The processing time will remain the same. However, you will now need to allow extra time for the documents to be sent to and from the UK. See this link or get further information here.
As Bangladesh is a Commonwealth country the British High Commission is not empowered to offer notarial services. We do not issue Visa Recommendation Letters to British nationals.
Under UK law we have to charge for some services. Details of our list of consular fees and customer charter are available to download and are on display in our Consular section waiting room.

Yay beer samples! Enjoyed the BBQ Chicken Salad, Korean BBQ Pupusa and a Windansea Wheat Hefeweizen. They proactively comped one of our plates that was delayed coming out of the kitchen.
Great location, perfect place for patio sitting and people watching. Grab a flight of hand crafted brews and the Assad fries! Awesome staff of friendly, helpful people. Def would come back.
Deliciosas cervejas e tb as refeições! Recebemos várias samples durante o tempo que estivemos lá! O preço das cervejas é ótimo, das refeições é justo para o local!
Happy hour flights are $4. Knowledgeable waitstaff adds to beer-drinking experience.
Sit at the bar and taste a lot of beers. Ask about the cask. Food is good, too, if you aren't in the mood for Mexican at puesto next door.
Tasty handcrafted beers

Awesome service in a great location.

Wreck Alley is the best!
You must try the shrimp po'boy!
Get the Black garlic fondue! It is amazingly delicious!
Not sure what to order? Have a sample of each. They will serve you free samples until you decide!
Food fell short this time. Also always unsettling to see the manager and hostess drinking beer in the kitchen :/

Cotija avocado turkey burger is very good
Get the piggy bank mac n cheese. Do it!

Woodie Gold is quite a good Pilsner.
Check out TapHunter.com for what's on tap.
Try the Strauss stout while it is on tap!

Thursday night is cask night. Tapped at 6:00pm...$3.50 beers until it runs out!
I think the Fullsuit is a seasonal, however I would drink it all the time if I could. Try it if you like coffee and oaky red wines. All the beer was good
Red Trolley is my favorite. Goes really well with the BBQ Chicken salad.

Today's Life Winner: The Genius Who Got Stuck in a McDonald's High Chair
We like to imagine that the third cop in the foreground has moved behind our stuck friend, because he is laughing too hard at him.
We like to imagine that the third cop in the foreground has moved behind our stuck friend, because he is laughing too hard at him.
Now I was a big fan of McDonald's when I was a kid but nothing would ever make me drive to go get it.
The first ever Vegetarian McDonald's is set to open in India! McDonald's is the best at adapting a menu to its environment and the majority of the population in India don't eat pork or beef and focus heavily on vegetables.
A father lost his temper and grabbed a box of McDonald fries and threw it into his daughters face. He has since been charged with a felony. For throwing fires, delicious, golden fries.
I would never think fries would be considered a dangerous weapon. On the other hand I would have never though I would see someone kill a man with a carrot...
McDonald's created a short video to show customers how they prepare their tasty meals for an advertising photo shoot.
The advertising firm that does the food pictures for the menu actually makes their own McDonald's burgers from scratch, in their own kitchen, using McDonald's ingredients.
When it comes to cool stuff, I don't think anyone can deny that America is by far the worlds leader.
That doesn't mean that we are always on top of things though, in fact this 'Pretzeinator' burger that is coming out of a McDonalds in Germany might be a little slice of heaven.
It's VIP at Mickey D's time and I hung out today at McDonald's on Ballenger HWY, hooking the first 20 people up with free value meals. They were so excited about this that they beat us there. They were in their cars and waiting outside as we pulled up. Free Food works!
McDonalds responds to a hoax that was done over the weekend and spread like wildfire over the net. Someone created a sign that seemed to be an official letter from McDonalds Corporation referring to them charging black people more due to a string of recent robberies.
The last thing I want is a tooth in my Big Mac, especially if it's my boss who is whooping my ass that's even worse! It all went down at a McDonald's in Memphis, TN and the best part is...it was all caught on tape! Oh yeah and by the way Rule #1 for working at McD's "Don't eat while you're on the job" bosses hate that!
There's something awesomely disturbing about this Japanese McDonald's commercial..
The battle for global dominance is now! A recent study shows that subway last year sold more units and has more store locations worldwide then McDonald's...

Thanks for helping!
Not a bad lunch, above average really. The babies buggy seemed to cause huge issues but sorted eventually. Spoilt if anything by a neighbouring french couple who made it clear that they did not want us there!
We had the moules mariennere, which we were warned were small last week. However, they were tasty. Only complaint was that the french fries were not cooked sufficiently.
Food and service excellent. We were so glad we didn't choose a starter as the Assiette des Pecheurs and Moules Royale were both huge and well worth what we paid for them. Staff were friendly and polite and the waitress was more than happy to arrange a taxi for us to get back to our hotel.
Everything about his place was terrible. We should've left the moment they cleaned a table for us with a cloth that smelled of feet. Stuck with it because we were only in Les Sables-d'Olonne for a night, had no clue where to eat, and the kids were hungry. Terrible food (re-heated seafood, I mean, honestly), incorrect orders and a manager...
Expecting fresh fish and seafood in Les Sables, we tried this place this evening as it was busy and thought that it would be a good sign.
Extremely disappointed, frozen fish, frozen soufflé a la framboise, long wait, very cramped seating. Won't go back, found fantastic place previous evening but unfortunately was closed on Monday nights.
My Wife and our three children decided to eat at this establishment last week. We had doubts as the menus all have pictures (never a good sign), but we decided to try as the place seemed busy. We were seated at a table barely big enough for the chairs and a waitress took our order where we requested 2 childrens...
Langoustines, chateaux bouef with a good quality yet reasonable champage were the order of the day for us, couldnt fault the food, or Champagne (and i do partake regularly so have my faves) suroundings could have been a litle better but as weather was not good we were in the under cover outdoor area, so i guess unusual weather for...
really good restaurant and hotel just on the port of les sables friendly and accomodating staff
good value for money open all year round easy too acess
if you like seafood this is the place to go

The Contender Camp – Season Seven
It's that time of year again. Leaves are falling, daylight is dwindling and jackets are resurfacing as the threat of El Nino looms! …What we're trying to say is that Contender Camp is just around the corner!
This year you can register online, over the phone or in person at the shop. If any participants are interested in paying for all three blocks in advance, we'd like to extend a special offer by including one lactate test free of charge bringing down the price of last year's camp special. Once you have registered, your spot is reserved.
To sign up for Block I & your initial lactate test, please click HERE.
To take advantage of the NEW camp special (all three blocks and one free lactate test), please click HERE.
Already in our seventh season, the camp gets further refined every year. We will continue to offer a Saturday make-up/bonus class and as always the trainer room is open during the shop's business hours for use by all Camp participants. Plus all your favorite instructors are back this year!
The Contender Camp has been known to…
- turn you into lean, mean, pedaling machines just in time for spring riding
- create a new and improved passion for cycling
- forge friendships that last lifetimes (or until the next group-ride-grudge-match up Emigration)
It's a little thing we like to call The Contender Consortium. The brain trust of Ryan and Alison's boundless cycling and training, Dr. Eric Taylor and Blake's knowledge and impressive backgrounds in sports physiology combine to make this camp the best training option in Utah. Adding Nick, Julian, Cody and Richard to the mix means this year will be better than ever.
How Does Our Class Work?
We take the latest science-based training principles, combine them with our lactate testing and state-of-the-art CompuTrainer facility for catered training parameters and accurate measurements of your cadence and power output. This is essential to get maximum results from your training time in class.
This scientific approach creates the ideal formula necessary to make the greatest improvements in our fitness. Our goal is to make sure you're not just simply fit and ready for spring riding but to make sure that the fitness, knowledge and skills you've gained forge a more confident and better performing rider.
Split into three 6-week training 'blocks' or phases, each block uses specific training principles. This challenges Camp participants and helps us see improvements along the way ultimately motivating us to become a better cyclist.
But let's not forget one of the best reasons to sign up for the class – the chance to meet cyclists who are motivated to stay fit, to work hard and to have fun during those chilly winter months. Plus our expert staff and their legendary choice of playlist keeps you motivated for the entire 90 minute workout.
M/W Morning: 6:00 AM – 7:30 AM
M/W Evening: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
T/TH Early Morning: 5:15 AM – 6:45 AM
T/TH Late Morning: 9:00 AM – 10:30 AM
T/TH Late Afternoon: 4:15 PM – 5:45 PM
T/TH Evening: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
BLOCK II: WED, DEC 16 – THU, FEB 4 (HOLIDAY BREAK – DEC 23 through JAN 3)
FOLLOW-UP LACTATE TESTS (if desired to reestablish training zones): $100.00
CAMP SPECIAL: $840 (all three blocks and one free lactate test)*
*First time participants MUST have a lactate test prior to the start of camp. For those seasoned veterans, please feel free to use your lactate test at any point throughout the camp.
Blake Vatne will again be doing all of the lactate testing at Contender Bicycles. Please feel free to set up a time with him during the month of October before classes begin. Please note we recommend establishing your training values before the start of camp and, if needed, retest once during camp to reestablish values in order to maximize your gains and foster continual growth throughout the classes!
For additional information, please feel free to contact our shop (801.364.0344) or email Blake at firstname.lastname@example.com. If you are interested in a class that is full, please email Blake so he can put you on a cancellation list.
For half a century, lactic acid has been considered the cause of muscle fatigue and burning sensation during high intensity exercise. In the body, lactic acid is present in very small amounts even in resting condition. Most of it is dissociated as lactate. The most recent theory on lactate metabolism and exercise is that lactate is a great way for the body to "move" energy between cells. We also know that lactate doesn't cause fatigue but correlates to it. Lactate can also be used as an energy source. Studies show that without lactate recycling we would need to carry a 150 lb backpack of ATP to complete a marathon. The rate of production and reutilization of lactate stays equal up to the individual reaching their lactate threshold. Lactate threshold is the point where the rate of production exceeds the rate of reutilization of lactate. After this point, excessive lactate begins to build lowering blood pH and resulting in muscular fatigue.
Lactate testing allows you to see exactly how the body is responding to the muscular stress you apply. Using a hand held blood lactate analyzer along with power output data from the Computrainer, your training zones can be established to maximize the effectiveness of the training. In other words, your lactate values and your power levels help map the zones that will stimulate the greatest fitness gains.
A lactate test is performed using a hand held lactate analyzer, heart rate monitor, and a Computrainer displaying power output. When a test is performed there is a standard warm up of 10-15 minutes. This warm up increases your muscles temperature allowing the reactions for energy production to be faster and more efficient. After starting the test at a predetermined workload, intensity is increased every three minutes until you go just beyond OBLA (on set of blood lactate utilization). During each phase of the test, heart rate, perceived exertion and blood lactate level are taken along with current power output. Normally this takes around 15 -20 minutes.
Using a hand held analyzer, blood lactate levels are determined using a pen-point sized blood sample on a disposable chip. The small drop of blood is taken from the earlobe using a sterile, disposable lance. Once testing is complete, the lactate analyzer readings and power output levels are imported into a graph. This graph helps to understand how you body responds to different levels of work and aids in determining your "intensity zones". These zones are much more effective to use over heart rate zones based on formulas related to age or maximum heart rates.
1. Heart rate changes dramatically with temperature.
2. Heart rate is affected by diet and hydration levels.
3. Heart rate lags increases or decreases in the actual workload.
4. Heart rate does not accurately allow you to see when you are riding in an anaerobic state. In short, the combination of power and heart rate provide a clearer picture of how your body responds to your effort.
Our cycling camp staff brings a unique approach to indoor cycling training. With Ryan and Dr. Eric Taylor having worked closely together to develop our program, our staff shares the same theories and practical approach to training. We believe in using a science-based approach to make you a better athlete.
Ryan brings to the camp over twenty years of experience in the bicycle industry. Born and raised in Salt Lake City, Ryan started bike racing and working in the industry at the age of sixteen. As a cyclist, he competed as a top regional rider with success on a national level both as a rider and a manager. Ryan helped develop and manage the most successful team to have ever come out of Utah. What started as a team of up-and-coming local riders turned into a launching pad for several of today's top American professionals including Dave Zabriskie. With an honors business marketing degree from the University of Utah and over twenty years of bicycle industry experience, Ryan has built Contender Bicycles into what it is today.
Eric has extensive experience as a physiologist, coach, and athlete. Eric has a PhD in physiology, completed a postdoctoral fellowship in muscle metabolism and exercise physiology at Harvard Medical School, and is a currently a professor in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Iowa. His research on mitochondrial metabolism was recently published in the prestigious journal Science. Eric has broad coaching experience with all levels of runners and cyclists. Eric competed as a track athlete for Brigham Young University, running the 800 and 1500 meters. He currently competes as a Category 3 road cyclist and also races cyclocross. Although Eric now calls Iowa home, expect to see him from time to time out on the Utah roads.
Drawn away from his native Minnesota by Utah's big mountains and deep winter powder, Blake chose the University of Utah to earn a BS in Exercise Physiology. Blake has worked at Contender Bicycles throughout college. Since graduating in the spring 2010, Blake has taken on an integral role in organizing and managing the Contender Camp throughout the fall, winter and early spring months. Besides being a great skier, Blake is an equally enthusiastic cyclist who enjoys riding on both the road and mountain bike. Blake is also very interested and knowledgeable about nutrition, so we at the shop often seek out Blake's advice when choosing nutritional products.
Alison gradually fell into her role at Contender Bicycles. Shortly after starting to race on the road, she met Ryan on the way out to the local criterium series. After they married, Alison continued to race bicycles and establish her career as an engineer. Experiencing some success racing, Alison decided to put her career on hold and race bicycles full-time. However, a severe spinal injury resulted in multiple surgeries which derailed her plans in cycling. In between surgeries and during recovery, Alison started to work at the shop. Over the years, her role has steadily grown to where she is now an integral part of Contender Bicycles. With her recovery behind her, she still loves to ride and feels lucky to still be on the bike.
