This was a very well organized small race. I ended up running it because of a last minute conflict with another race. First marathon of this size I have run. I will look for similar sized races in the future. The travel, lodging, and race day logistics are so simple and low stress compared to large races. The only thing you have to worry about is your run. The course is very good. I liked the short out and backs. Plenty of aid stations with great volunteers. Thought about responding na instead of 5 stars for the spectators, there were none (well very few). Those that came out were great. Nice finishing is the stadium. Makes it very easy for friends and family to see the finish. Its all about the race, not the expo or any of the other stuff. I highly recommend the race. Thanks to the organizers and volunteers.
Tough course, into the most consistent 20+MPH headwind I've ever felt. But it IS Oklahoma. Great organization. Free pasta dinner was a plus, pre-race bus transport was a snap, great aid stations with plentiful, very enthusiastic volunteers. The course was a bit dull, especially miles 9-20 on a perfectly straight 4 lane highway. I could see the water tower in town, and knew we were running to it, but it seemed to never get closer. Niles 21-26 in hte park were easier than the long stretch. My only gripe was the website, which was never updated. I had also signed up for pre-race email updates,and never received a single one. This was my only complaint, which is very minor. The people of Ardmore were fantastic, though, and I would recommend this to anyone who likes smaller races, and don't need a lot of spectators and fanfare.
Beautiful and unique scenery! Really- in Oklahoma! Very nice crowd support. Great drink and goo stops. Volunteers were just awesome. Tough race, wind was a bugger. But folks, that is between you and God! If we wanted to have control of all the possible elements we would run marathons in shopping malls!
This is an excellent small town low key race. I believe there were less than 100 marathon runners. The marathoners, half's and 5K runners are all separate The RD and volunteers are great. I suspect volunteers outnumber runners. The course, is challenging, but great. The first 4 miles are brutally up hill into a sever head wind. Next 7 miles are nice, and the last 15 are up and down into a headwind. At 20 miles you can see the finish, but make a 5 mile loop though a lovely park to a lake. The town of Ardmore is very friendly and make runners fell welcome. This is a point-to-point run starting in a state park by a beautiful waterfall. At 4 miles you are at the top of a hill that you can see where you have been and where you are going. The course is only moderately difficult, but the headwinds make it challenging. The Port-on-Potties are very plentiful. No waits even minutes before the race. Rather than a T-Shirt, runners get a nice wool hoodie.
Top notch organization. Everything was well done from packet pickup, busing, course support, etc. Loved the hoodie (even though it didn't say anything about distance or location). Organizers and community seemed genuinely happy to have us. Although I generally like point-to-point courses, and this is the perfect size race to do it well, the 9 or so straight south, rolling, full sun miles along Hwy 77 (a 4 lane concrete road) was tough. It would have been tough in the best of conditions, but running into a 20+mph headwind for that length of time on concrete sapped a lot of energy. Loved the first 10 miles of the race, and the last 6 through the park were a welcome change from the concrete wind tunnel. I am glad I did it and do recommend it to those who like small, well-run point-to-point races with some challenge, but I probably wouldn't do it again myself.
Very well organized, not a run if you are looking for crowd support. Plenty of Porta Johns at the start and along the course. The aid stations and volunteers were OUTSTANDING! It was very hot, plenty of water, sponges, GU, Gatorade, banana's, oranges and encouragement.
Coming from the east coast, I found the wind to be as tough as I expected. Wasn't easy but it IS Oklahoma! Also in 2012, it was warmer than usual- but that is also uncontrollable. What WAS controllable was so well managed. I love marathons where pretty much everything is top-notch. Marathon course was nicely separated from the half course to avoid any congestion. Marathon started at a beautiful park with waterfalls and we began our point-to-point journey. Running through a ranch (miles 7-11) was very unique and pastoral. Volunteers were so friendly all throughout the way- it appeared as though they included more aid stations due to the heat. Miles 20-25 were run in a pretty quiet city park and were a little lonely but not bad. After the last turn (into the wind) it made me want to run faster to get the windy warm run over with! Nice finish in a football stadium with plenty of food, drink, and timely awards. Loved the race shirts and age group awards. The race director exudes passion for the event- I saw her many times throughout the weekend, talking to runners and making sure everything was running well. The marathon benefited the local cancer center and it was a good way to put the run in perspective. To the RD's credit (along with all the volunteers!) it DID run well. Nicely done, Ardmore! I would most definitely recommend this marathon to someone looking for a great Oklahoma marathon for 50 states, or simply a small, well-organized marathon. I can think of some larger marathons that could learn some lessons from the folks at Ardmore.
This is a great race. The support that the town shows for this event was excellent. It was a hot and windy day and they did a great job of adding aid stations and keeping a close eye on the runners to make sure everyone stayed safe. I highly recommend this race!
Yes, the wind and warm temperatures were brutal, but I loved the community support. I felt very safe. As I was recuperating in the medical tent, this cute little girl kept making sure I was hydrating myself. I loved the shirts, but I wish they had the distances listed on them. The medal and ribbon were nice. The race director has a natural gift for organizing this race. In the future, I hope to pass through Ardmore, OK and run it again (hopefully, with a tailwind).
Yes, it was brutally windy, but that was the only downer of this race. This was a fantastic experience! The race is very well organized from packet pick-up to finish line. The volunteers and everyone around the community really comes out to support the participants. People were very kind to my husband and two small children as well. Special thank you to every volunteer, Ardmore Chamber and Jud Little Ranch. I signed up 2 weeks before the race when my family travel plans were going to have me traveling through OK and I wanted to run. We couldn't find a hotel closer than 45 miles away so the Chamber and volunteers helped us. We stayed at The INN at Treasure Valley Casino in Davis. Nice, clean place just 7 minutes north of the start. Make sure to go to The Cliff Restaurant for southern fried chicken! The course is really pretty! Loved running through the ranch and the Ardmore Park. Lot's of horses, cows and other stuff to look at. Awesome volunteers had water stations every 1-2 miles. This is a net downhill; however, I would describe it as rolling - not flat, but not difficult either. If there is a tailwind, it could be pretty fast. Really liked the short-sleeve participant tech shirt and beautiful long-sleeve finisher's tech shirt! Nice medal. Finish is one loop around the track. Thanks to the two guys working at the last chip mat who cheered me to finish strong. I was pretty shot after those winds and these guys helped me bring it in. Nice to have the massage too. Unfortunately I had the rare experience of needing medical support, but Tom and the other folks really took good care of me! I loved this race - wind, IV's and all - and I would do it again! Thank you, Ardmore! My kids keep asking when we can go back to Oklahoma!

MCC Members in the News U-M Study: Fear May be Driving Women to Over-Treat Breast Cancer
A new study conducted by the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center has shown that many women chose to over-treat their breast cancer because of unsubstantiated fears that it may return.
The study - released Tuesday night - revealed 70 percent of breast cancer patients that receive a double-mastectomy don't have a clinical reason for having the procedure done.
"The dilemma we're facing is more and more women are choosing to remove both breasts," Dr. Michael Sabel, associate professor of surgery at the University of Michigan Medical School. "We're greatly overestimating the risk of women with breast cancer developing another breast cancer."
Researchers had observed a noticeable rise in the number of women that were choosing to have both breasts removed as a part of their cancer treatment strategy — a trend the team of Sarah Hawley, Steven Katz, Reshma Jagsi, all of the University of Michigan, suspected was due to more than just clinical attributions. Monica Morrow of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Ann Hamilton of the University of Southern California and Kendra Schwartz of Wayne State University also were authors of the study.
The study found 90 percent of women who had surgery to remove both breasts reported being very worried about the cancer recurring.
"There are women who are getting that procedure who could avoid it," said Hawley, associate professor of internal medicine at the U-M Medical School and a lead author on the study. "Most women worry about (cancer) coming back."
"There is a significant proportion of women who don't have the factors who are getting the procedure, and worry and concerns do drive some of these decisions," Hawley said.
Hawley said it's important to educate women that a contralateral mastectomy would not reduce the risk of cancer recurrence.
"Bilateral mastectomy does not reduce the risk of recurrence of breast cancer," Sabel said. "There's very little data that says removing both breasts will increase their chances of survival. The biggest threat to their survival is the cancer that they're facing now. Most patients aren't going to develop a second cancer."
A very small percentage of women who have breast cancer once will develop the cancer again, but most of them will be cured in the second round, Sabel said.
For women who do not have a family history of breast cancer or cancer that has genetic mutations, they face the decision of whether or not they want to preserve their breast, which would involve the removal of the lump and radiation treatment, or if they want to remove the breast entirely.
"The outcome is the same," Sabel said. "The survival of their cancer is no different whether they have breast preservation versus a mastectomy."
Surgeons tend to favor less invasive treatments, Hawley said, and generally will recommend that women opt for the lumpectomy and radiation treatment if it applies to the patient's situation, Hawley said.
Part of the confusion regarding breast cancer treatment is the cancer's increased prevalence. Many women research treatment options online before talking with a surgeon, and many know other women that have gone through breast cancer treatments before, Sabel said.
"All it takes is one person to say, 'I wish I had just had both breasts removed,'" Sabel said.
Misleading figures on many online resources overestimate the risk of breast cancer returning for a second time increasing at a rate of one to two percent per year, Sabel said. That figure is more like .2 to .4 percent, depending on how the breast cancer was treated the first time, Sabel said.
Especially for women in their 30s and 40s, they don't want to undergo the breast cancer treatment process twice, Sabel said, and so many decide they simply want a double mastectomy when they don't actually have a clinical reason for doing so.
"Some women fail to realize there can be complications," Sabel said of double mastectomies. "Ten to 20 percent will have a complication unrelated to the cancer. People are overestimating the risk of cancer and underestimating the risk of the surgery."
A double mastectomy has more risks involved because more anesthesia is required during the longer procedure. Recovery times also are longer, and reconstruction surgery becomes a much larger procedure if both breasts are removed.
Hawley stressed that even when both breasts are removed, a woman still needs to undergo chemotherapy treatments to prevent future activity by the cancer cells.
"One of the things that we believe and know from talking to a lot of surgeons that talk with us is sometimes these decisions get made too quickly," Hawley said, explaining that women with breast cancer have the time to think over their options and don't need to rush into the operating room that day.
Sabel said women have about a month to make a decision, even for patients with more aggressive forms of breast cancer.
The study was conducted using information from anonymous breast cancer patients registered in the National Cancer Institute's registry, which has registered patients in the Detroit metro and Los Angeles metro areas. "Is Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy (CPM) Overused? Results from a Population-Based Study" will be presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology Quality Care Symposium Nov. 30.
Hawley's team is working to understand the general decision making process with regards to breast cancer treatment options. and has generated a number of studies using grant money from the National Cancer Institute.
The study conducted by Hawley's research team serves as a natural segue into their next grant-funded project exploring patient values and concerns that lead to decisions regarding breast cancer treatment.
Using part of a $13.6 million National Cancer Institute grant, Hawley's team will be working to develop an online interactive decision-making tool intended to help women diagnosed with breast cancer choose which course of treatment is best for them.

I'm doing a new workout and it says pre exhaust sets. Can someone explain to me what they are? Thank you
Its a few sets to tire out the muscle just a tad bit b4 you go on to heavier exercises. When you pre exhaust the muscle b4 you go onto heavier exercises it manipulates the lighter weight into feeling heavier and allows the muscle to work harder. For example let's say you are training chest, in order to pre-exhaust your chest you would first do a machine or fly movement b4 the free weight pressing movements
Example Chest Workout
Machine Incline - 4 sets (Pre exhaust)
Dumbell Incline Bench - 4 sets
Dumbbell Flat Bench - 4 sets
Dips - 4 sets
Pec Dec Flys - 4 sets
It's doing an exercise to exhaust the muscle group you ate trying to work.
Ex: leg extensions before squats. Your quads will already be exhausted from the leg extensions. So you won't be able to go as heavy as you usually would have with just squats.
Yes. But when your quads are tired your legs as a whole get weaker.Originally Posted by Celorza
Hm...I have not seen this happen to me but I don't do pre-exhaust sets , yet I do go all out on 5.3.1 squats and then on to high-volume high-weight leg press , I do it backwards , i tire my glutes and hammies and then jam my quads , i'll try out this pre-exhaust just for the heck of it on friday gregg I wanna see if tired out I can still manage my 5.3.1 hehe I like a challenge
>SNS-Glycophase<Serious Nutrition Solutions Rep
dont waste your time. pre exhaust is a silly bodybuilder thing. it wont make you stronger. which if you are doing 5 3 1 then you probably want to get stronger.
pre exhaust gives you the ability to do less work with a muscle and major in the minors by doing way too many isolation exercises and sucking at the big important lifts. so yes, i think its a silly idea.
you can call me "ozzie" for short.
Just thought kinda for the heck of it , I love my 5/3/1 , and yeah I want strength and mass , and do dedicate myself a lot to it I try to keep assistance exercises away from isolations and machines...seems stupid at a beginners point like mine , I just stick to compounds , and heavy BW exercises hehe
>SNS-Glycophase<Serious Nutrition Solutions Rep
It's not silly of you know how to pre-exhaust. When you pre exhaust you are not taking an "easy" exercise and working the muscle out hard. You are just getting the blood flowing and stimulating the muscle just enough. You are not going 100% to failure on each pre-exhaust set. When I bench I warm up on Hammer Strength incline press and I follow up on DB incline presses. 100lb, 110lb, 120lb, 130lb... Those are still strong lifts in my opinion. When you pre-exhaust you just wanna get that pump feeling in your muscle not a tired sore feelingOriginally Posted by asooneyeonig
so basically you are warming up the muscle?
what i know of pre-exhaust is that you want to fatigue a muscle with an isolation exercise movement in the hopes that then doing a compound movement involving that muscle will allow for more stimulus and therefore more growth.
i may be wrong in that, but memory says that, for example doing leg extensions followed up by squats to try and get more of out of the quads just does not work. the pre exhausted muscle works less in the compound then if it was fresh. if that is the case then it just seems silly to do pre exhaust. but i could be wrong.
you can call me "ozzie" for short.
Your 1st paragraph is the correct theory. In regards to that leg routine, just because you are not squating a heavier weight that you normally could do because of pre exhausting the quads w/ leg extensions does not mean you're getting less out of your quad development. Your muscles only understand resistance. It can't calculate how much weight you have on the bar. Your muscles don't know how much it is lifting. If you pre exhaust your muscle b4 a heavier compound movement just remember to leave your ego at the front door!Originally Posted by asooneyeonig
Does not mean you are not getting more*** (sorry)Originally Posted by VS91588
I'll try to look up the studies when I get back in front of my external hard drive, but.........
If you look at any EMG studies done with pre-exhuast you actually get the opposite response. For example, if you do pec dec before bench press, you do not get additional pec work, but in stead the triceps and anterior deltoids recruitment increases while pectoral recruitment decreases. This lends me to believe that pre-exhuast while challenging and pump inducing, may not be all that efficient as far as increasing size in the desired muscle. If anything, I would suggest the opposite. Doing the big movement then following immediately after with the isolation to induce some extra lactic-acidosis and muscle damage.
This^^^ If the target muscle has been pre-exhausted and therefore weakened. The tendency would be for you to recruit other muscles in order to perform the next exercise. So if you pre-exhaust your quads with extensions and then go to squats, you will probably be recruiting more glutes/hams to peform them.
Always open light. Its not what you open with, its what you finish with. Louie Simmons

Since being drafted out of Oklahoma State University, Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant has compiled a sizeable résumé at the NFL level. Quite the contrary to many of the league's best, however, Bryant's resume is more of a rap sheet than a collection of achievements.
Practically from the moment he traded one Cowboys uniform for another, Bryant has been one of the most controversial NFL players in recent memory. In his first professional training camp, Bryant managed to get himself into hot water with his teammates for refusing to partake in harmless bits of traditional rookie hazing. That same year, Bryant found himself banned from both a shopping mall and a P.F. Chang's restaurant, and sued for failing to pay for over a half-million dollars was worth of goods from a Dallas jeweler.
Adding to his laundry list of troubles, the Cowboys' star has also been at the center of a physical altercation involving the mother of one of his children, been connected to a quarrel involving rapper Lil' Wayne, skipped out on a personal appearance for which he'd already been paid $10,000, and most recently, been arrested for slapping his own mother.
Needless to say, Bryant has already achieved more in the realm of personal misconduct than most players do throughout an entire career.
As a result of Bryant's continued disobedience, the Dallas Cowboys recently issued a strict set of guidelines they insist the star receiver abide by. The rules, which took effect shortly after the team returned from their California-based training camp, prohibit Bryant from a number of potentially harmful activities including attending strip clubs and imbibing alcohol. Additionally, Bryant will be forced to attend counseling twice a week, adhere to a midnight curfew and be chaperoned by a security guard at all times.
While the Cowboys' idea for taming their troubled star may seem unconventional, it may be warranted with the recent rise in reckless NFL personalities. According to research compiled by The San Diego Union-Tribune, more than 600 NFL players have been arrested since 2000, with most having been convicted.
To understand the root of the problem, one needs to look no further than the personal history of Dez Bryant.
Born to a mother who was just 15 years old, Bryant's life began with immediate hardship. His mother, Angela Bryant, spent a considerable amount of time in prison for dealing drugs, and had such issues with addiction that she would often get high in front of her children. As a result, Bryant struggled both socially and academically throughout his childhood and found himself constantly shifted between households of various friends and relatives.
Like many gifted athletes however, Bryant's life took a turn once his physical potential was realized. From the moment he set foot on a high school football field he was a star. College scouts and coaches would line up for a chance to lure the kid who was regarded as one of the top-10 high school talents in the country. Essentially, by the age of 17, Desmond Demond Bryant was a star.
In college, as a member of the Oklahoma State Cowboys, Bryant's talent played a significant role in intensifying the program's offense to a level the university had seldom seen. Soon, Bryant was regarded as one of the best wide receivers in all of college football, and once again, scouts crowded around the can't-miss prospect for a chance to dissect his unnatural talent.
By the time Jerry Jones scooped him up in the 2010 NFL Draft, Bryant's ego was firmly established. He had been an elite prospect in high school and was a two-time All American in college. And despite questions surrounding his character, he was regarded as one of the can't-miss players in the NFL Draft without even amassing a full collegiate career.
Once Bryant signed on the proverbial dotted line, he essentially had $12 million to go along with public adoration and non-stop praise. The one thing Bryant didn't have was a sense of how to handle the lavish life he had carved out for himself.
Like many of the NFL's unruly talents, Bryant was thrust into a veritable utopia without the life skills and self-discipline necessary to survive. Bryant's story is just a slight variation from those of the hundreds of NFL players who have struggled to abide by the laws of the land after finding fame and fortune. While Bryant may be one of the more notable of the NFL's problem children, he's certainly not alone.
Ridiculous as instilling a set of guidelines to corral a millionaire professional may sound, perhaps the league should take note of the unorthodox means by which the Cowboys are attempting to realign their troubled icon. While there's definitely no guarantee that Bryant's corrupt psyche will benefit from a set of moral standards -- or that Bryant will so much as abide by them -- the alternatives to repairing such maligned players are few.
With players committing crimes at such an alarming rate, it's time NFL commissioner Roger Goodell begins exploring measures to correct his league's behavioral issues rather than continuing to merely dole out fines and suspensions. Perhaps "The Dez Rules" are the answer for more of the NFL's problems than just the man they're named for. What's to say that a strict code of conduct and personal accountability couldn't benefit more potentially delinquent newcomers to the league? Maybe the answer to the NFL's growing problem of gross misconduct could be remedied by forcing the league's rookies to partake in an initial season of limited recreational activity and a little extra mentoring.
Surely it couldn't hurt.
Or maybe players like Dez Bryant are just lost causes -- wayward spirits that have drifted too far to be salvaged. Given the history of troubled stars like Chris Henry, Adam "Pacman" Jones, Donte Stallworth and a horde of others, it's quite possible there is no immediate solution.
Either way, Jerry Jones and his organization should be lauded for at least trying something new. While the odds are definitely not in favor of a transformation of the young star, the Cowboys recognize the value a talent like Bryant can bring not only to their organization, but also their fans. Regardless of how the rest of Dez Bryant's career plays out, the Cowboys can never be accused of anything less than merely making the effort to improve one troubled man's life.
Hopefully, for Bryant and the Cowboys, "The Dez Rules" become a foundation for the betterment of the National Football League. While such extreme measures often carry extreme criticism, such tactics are sometimes revolutionary.
Despite how we may feel about the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones or Dez Bryant, we should all hope for the best.

BU raising tuition 3.7 percent; fewer students to receive financial aid
Tuition at Boston University will increase 3.7 percent next year to $43,970, the college said.
The hike is slightly lower than last years increase of 3.79 percent.
In a statement , BU called the new tuition rate one of the lowest rates of increase among BUs peer universities. Room and board costs will rise 3.3 percent to $13,620, making the full annual cost $57,590.
BU tuition hikes have averaged 3.8 percent over the past five years, the statement said.
In a letter to students and parents on March 18, BU President Robert A. Brown wrote that in setting a budget for the coming year, we have worked to protect and continue to improve the quality of a Boston University education and our support services, while recognizing the need to control the cost of attendance for our students and parents.
Brown wrote that some of the universitys recent investments include the new Center for Student Services, and the Engineering Product Innovation Center that is slated to open in January 2014.
The letter also noted that BU will give financial aid to approximately 53 percent or 8,500 of undergraduate students next year. Whereas last year, 57 percent of undergraduates were receiving financial aid from the university, according to a statement issued by BU exactly one year ago.
Our challenge is to continue to improve quality while controlling costs, Brown said in this years letter to parents and students. We are mindful of the sacrifices parents and students make and especially awarein economically uncertain timesof the importance of providing an education and campus experience that translates into long-term success in life and work.

A printer that shuns computers
No, this isn't a relic from the DigiBarn museum. Although it may look like a prototype of the first personal computer, the object pictured here is actually a Casio printer--it just happens to come with its own attached keyboard.
Why, you might ask? The idea is that you can bypass a computer and type in any text, such as letter addresses, directly into the printer, according to DeGadget. A 7-inch LCD, which can provide a preview of the writing, is large enough to show up to eight photos at a time. Its $515 price seems fairly high in … Read more

Current Time 11:25:29pm
Five tornadoes touched down in Ohio on Wednesday
Written by Z. Daniel BarnettTuscarawas County battered by EF-1 twister earlier this week
CAMBRIDGE, Ohio -- The National Weather Service has confirmed that five tornadoes touched down in the Buckeye State during Wednesday's severe storms.
Weather Service officials in Pittsburgh say an EF-1 twister with winds reaching 100 mph struck the Mineral City area in Tuscarawas County at around 4:45pm Wednesday. The tornado tore the roof off of the village's fire house and stripped siding off of many nearby homes.
Another EF-1 tornado struck Carroll County shortly thereafter, uprooting or flattening trees before continuing into Jefferson County.
EF-0 twisters were spotted in Sandusky and Ashland counties between 3:00 and 4:00pm Wednesday, while Seneca County saw an EF-1 tornado with wind speeds of around 90 mph.
No injuries were reported as a result of this week's storms. But storm damage left more than 150,000 Ohioans without electricity. Officials from AEP Ohio say some customers won't see power restored until Saturday night.

National Federation of the Blind (NFB) Youth Slam
July 26 - August 1
Architecture Building, Great Space
This summer, the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) will hold a one-week learning experience for 200 blind and low-vision high school students from across the country. The event, hosted at the University of Maryland, will focus on engaging the students in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), subjects often believed to be impossible for the blind.
During Youth Slam, the School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation will host 15 blind and low-vision students who are interested in exploring a career in architecture. Students in the Architecture track will collaborate with students in the Engineering track to design six houses, one for each of six different biomes. The Architecture track will be developed and led by graduate student Kimberly Kramer, and undergraduates Andrew Gipe and Jessica Stenzal. Professor of the Practice Peter Noonan and Lecturer Mike Binder will serve as program advisors. Several blind NFB mentors will also attend to help translate the design process into workable methods for the students.
For additional information, please visit the National Federation of the Blind Youth Slam (NFBYS) website at: http://www.blindscience.org/ncbys/youth_slam.asp.
The School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at the University of Maryland is home to four academic disciplines: architecture, urban planning, historic preservation and real estate development. Committed to educating its students and community about the importance of sustainability and smart growth, the School practices an interdisciplinary approach to education, research, creative work, and community and professional service. For more information, please e-mail us or call 301.405.8000.

Some brands want to create a fun culture; others innovative; others exclusive, and while many brands will say they've created a customer-centric culture, there are only a select number whose customers would agree. According to IBM, 80% of companies believe they deliver "superior" customer service, but only 8% of customers say that's true.
Given, it's not easy to create a customer-centric culture, because not only does it require an all-in internal effort; it requires an exceptional external effort, as well. But culture can be a corporate game-changer. According to a new Booz & Company culture and change management survey of more than 2,000 executives, managers and employees, 86% of C-suite executives and 84% of all managers and employees say culture is critical to their organization's success; and 60% see it as a bigger success factor than either their strategy or their operating model.

New chapter
What I'd really like is a whole new blog. I'm a little tired of this circa-2002 Blogspot template with a sidebar I haven't updated in two years that still says I live in Juneau. Plus, this blog is now at 96 percent storage capacity, so realistically it only has a few more weeks in which it will even allow new content. But building a new blog from scratch, hopefully one that also holds the archives of my old blog, takes time and knowledge that I don't exactly have right now. In the meantime, I don't want to stop journaling just because I can't make a smooth transition. I will probably continue to publish posts under this header for a while longer.
It's been a good run for "Up in Alaska." I started this blog on Nov. 3, 2005, for the same reason most people start blogs - to keep my faraway friends and family updated on my new life in Alaska. Since then, it's hosted 1,182 posts, who knows how many photos, 992 "followers" and more than 2 million visitors. And it completely changed my life. While the blog didn't spark my interest in cycling and desire to enter the 2006 Susitna 100, it certainly helped me focus my efforts and sustain my motivation, which led to new passion, which led to many future cycling adventures. It reignited my love of writing and generated new interest in photography. And I'm pretty sure this blog has more clout in the eyes of my new employers than my bachelor's degree in journalism. Plus, I have this great record of the past five years of my life.
As to the new blog and new chapter, there is much yet to be determined. I feel like I'm entering a quieter period of my life, and I'm perfectly at peace with that. I've had a lot of time to reflect on what I left behind in Alaska, and I've realized that there was strikingly little that I couldn't take with me. Montana alone holds more beauty and possibility than I could possibly consume with my meager lifetime, and I'm certain that many new and intriguing adventures await for as long as I decide to stay. As for Missoula, it appears the geography was custom-built for mountain biking, and the craggy peaks of the kind of mountains I lust for are not far away. My new job is exciting; I still can't believe that actually landed in a career centered on bicycle travel.
I am sad about the end of "Up in Alaska" and all it implies. But if you had told me on Nov. 3, 2005, what my blog would hold in the next five years, I would have scarcely believed most of it. I can only hope the next five years hold just as much surprise.

Hey Jill. Best wishes for your new chapter in Montana. Miss seeing you in Juneau. Hope to hang out again sometime. Cheers, Dan
- Elizabeth said...
Good luck with your cool new job and home. I've really enjoyed reading your blog the past 5 years and look forward to your new blog!
Tom's suggested new title: Jill's Big Ride. That's what your life is, you know.
As for creating new blog while maintaining links or archive of old, talk to the Fatty Family. I think they've both done it before.

I want the blog in whatever name to continue.
Jill, thanks for everything so far! You're my hero. Looking forward to reading about your new adventures.
- valen said...
good luck in your new life, and look forward to whatever comes next, thanks!
Jill, you can't not blog your new adventure - it would be horrible not to be able to follow all you do. You can figure out how to set up a new blog and keep the "old" links, etc. Best of luck in your new life and I know you will be a success. Sounds to me like you have landed the perfect job. Keep in touch. We will be following every step of the way.
Why not simply call your Blog "Jill"? Your reputation has grown to where readers know who "Jill" is. Your Blog is about you, your thoughts & experiences, and how you see the world around you - whereever that is at the moment...
- Snakebite said...
Blogs have a storage limit?
Good luck with you new career adventure. Perhaps I'll see you when I bike through on my way to somewhere. - 5:35 AM

Jill, I've loved reading Up In Alaska, and I look forward to reading whatever you develop to reflect your chapter of life in Montana. I wish you the best of luck at your new job and in your new adventures! I'm still in!
Welcome back to the lower 48. Doesn't matter what you call it, I still love your blog!
- Greg said...
Hey Jill,
I guess I'm a little bit on the geeky side for knowing all of this, but:
1) The storage capacity is probably talking about all of your pictures. You can pay to expand your picture storage, or you can start hosting them on other free places (like flickr). There's no limit on the number of posts you can have.
2) You can update your template without losing any of your content, by just going to the "design" or "layout" tab. Blogger in Draft also has an option to create a somewhat unique template by going through a series of steps and choices, or if you want to get fancy you can add coding with the "html" option.
3)You can change the name and even internet address of this current blog by going to "settings" and then "publishing"
4) If you choose to totally move to somewhere else, you can download an archive of your blog to your computer by clicking "Settings" "Basic" "Export blog" "Download Blog"
Hope that all helps! - 6:08 AM
I think you should consider 'Up in Alaska' the foundation for the life you are living now. Not really the end, more like a beginning on which to build. I love reading your blog. I am what I guess you could say is a 'housecat' by nature. I 'know' Alaska through your eyes. Although I have visited Montana before, I'm certain you will show me a completely different side of it.
Thank you. - 6:25 AM

I like the name in the address of the blog - Arctic Glass. As another pointed out, it's valid to keep it since it reflects the origins of your blogging.

Your blog has not only inspired my cycling the past five years, but I get more hits on my blog coming from your link than any other place. I get at least 30 hits a day coming from blog. The only other link that comes close is a link from Kent's blog.
Thanks for all the sharing. It's been quite a ride. - 8:56 AM

It's great to see an outdoor-related blog with so many folowers - you give the rest of us outdoor bloggers something to aspire to.
If you decide to shift over to a self-hosted wordpress blog please do a post letting us know how you did it - I've been planning to do this myself for ages but can't face the hassle! - 10:49 AM
- Sara Outdoors said...
Jill, I found your blog in 2006 and have followed it ever since. I've wanted to come to Alaska since I was 15. Now I'm 25 and have been in Juneau since May living out my dream. Over the past several years of reading your blog I graduated college, worked two years in aviation, got laid off, interned for a congressman and dreamed of moving here. Your blog of daily adventures on life here helped me keep my eyes ony dream. Right now I'm on a backcountry trail crew and hope to find a more permenant job come fall when this ends. It's funny how the first few weeks ixarrived here were your last weeks in Alaska. I love the way time makes things happen. If anyone had told me back in 2006 as I gawked over your photos that in four years I'd be looking at those sights with my own two eyes I might have laughed.
I am looking forward to seeing what your life in Montana brings. I hope you keep blogging away!
Thank you,
Sara - 11:03 AM

You should just move over the Wordpress.org and own your own site, you can import this over and do 301 in the html

Jill, please leave this blog online when you switch to your new one. There's a lot of good info people may still want to read. Enjoy Montana, and as Frank Zappa would sing "be a dental floss tycoon."
Good luck on the new chapter. I've been reading your blog since I arrived in AK (also in 2005). You've added a rich context to my life and I even saw you take off from the start at your first Iditarod ride, to boot! (I've got a few pics.) That was fun! As for where we live...it's not where we live, but who we are that makes the difference. As an adventurer, you will always be fascinated with life and you will purse with heart. Good for you!

My career started when I was sixteen years old. At that point I was a hopeful who got lucky with a commercial contract for the Hearts of Oak life assurance company. As a result of that job, I was hired as a trainee wedding photographer, and this was my staple income for the next two years. I then placed an advert in the BJP for situations wanted, and I was picked up by 3M and Litchfield award winner, Rolf Cornell. At the time he was working for SCL in London as an advertising photographer. I moved to London and undertook many prestigious shoots, both as an assistant and as a photographer. Whilst with SCL and Rolf, I learned to use Large Format cameras and build intricate sets for product shots, and simple table top packshots. During this period I saw much work published. I left of my own volition a year later and took up the position of head printer with a laboratory in Hampshire, before moving on to manage a lab in Wiltshire. At the same time I worked for many well known and unknown bands supplementing my income as a music photographer.
In 1994 I moved to Ireland and my career took an unexpected turn in the dramatic arts and journalism. I wrote articles on how to make a living as a freelance music photographer, was the features writer for a Cork based magazine and then moved into theatre, where I had the pleasure of having seven plays produced on radio and stage. I moved further into broadcasting when I started working for RTE on a radio sit-com.
I returned to England in 1999 and began working as freelance photographer again. My experience with image making brought me to the role of Cameraman with an independent television production company. This lead very shortly to me becoming a producer/directory. After three years I left to set-up my own indy, which I ran until January 2009.
In July 2009 I returned to my first love; still photography. I set up a table top pack-shot studio, which is also flexible enough to used for portraits. My recent work includes publicity photographs for promotional material for an up and coming band, as well as private portraits and publicity shots for the likes of David Cameron.
I am thirty-eight, married and thoroughly happy to be back behind the camera.

Fayetteville's need for more money has come out again. This time, the target is the old and homeless.
The charging, and ticketing, for parking at the Bread 'n Bowls fundraiser was a money-grab against all who were trying to support the homeless. It lasted only a few hours; parking should have been free. The main people who supported the Operation Inasmuch event during the daytime hours were elderly, and the weather made parking close by really nice.
I guess the city has not received the great profits from the Big Bang annexation, and the PWC cash cow is not in the meat grinder yet.
If President Obama is so interested in the middle class, he could act promptly by moving forward with the Keystone Pipeline. I don't know about you, but I shudder every time I buy gas. President Obama doesn't get to experience this because we buy his gas so he can go on vacation every couple of weeks - to Hawaii with his family and to Florida to play golf with Tiger while we buy his wife's gas to go skiing out west. However, being wealthy, he will not have to worry about something as mundane as buying gas.
He also needs to stop wasting taxpayer money on failed green energy projects. We do not have the money. The cost to the consumer, you and me, is considerably more than we are now paying for energy, and I'm already paying more than enough. The money that President Obama spends in Washington is not his to do with as he pleases. It is not right for him to circumvent the Constitution when he can't get Congress to do his bidding.
Have you ever tried to get out of debt by spending more? I tried, but it didn't work. It hasn't worked for him, either. He talks a good talk, but his follow-through fails.
Congress is another story. Republicans are in disarray, and Democrats are puppets who cannot think for themselves, and must wait for President Obama to pull their strings to know what they should think.

SOURCE Dawson Geophysical Company
MIDLAND, Texas, Oct. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dawson Geophysical Company (NASDAQ:DWSN) today announced it has placed an order with Geospace Technologies for 9,000 stations of its three-channel GSX wireless recording system. The order includes sensors, batteries, trailers and accompanying system electronics. Delivery of the order is expected to occur in the Company's first fiscal quarter of 2014 ending December 31, 2013.
Stephen Jumper, President and Chief Executive Officer said, "With the addition of these 9,000 stations of three-channel GSX and the 1,000 stations acquired in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013, we will own 17,000 stations of multi-channel GSR/GSX wireless equipment. As previously announced, a portion of this equipment is anticipated to be deployed this winter season in Canada for several multi-channel projects, while the balance will remain in the U.S. to be deployed on a large multi-channel project in late fiscal first quarter 2014 and on subsequent microseismic applications. It is anticipated that this purchase will represent the largest item within our board-approved $35 million fiscal 2014 capital expenditure budget. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2013 were approximately $52 million."

I've just picked up a BP6 with 2x 366Mhz CPUs, and 4 more 366Mhz CPUs as spares.
Now my problem is that they only came with two heatsinks, with no fans. Obviously I want to overclock this system a bit, and am therefore looking for a heatsink/fan combo which will fit nicely onto this board. I've done a few searches on the forum, and found out that a few Evercool HS/Fans and GlobalWin HS/Fans are pretty popular.
Problem is I live downunder and I have had trouble finding any places that sell the exact models that people here have claimed fit nicely.
Now there are two online places I've bought from before, both which stock a few coolers for S370 setups, so I was after some help from people here!
Please take a look at these two pages:
and tell me which models you think will fit.
Ideally I'd like to hear from someone who has one of the exact models on either of the two above pages and knows that it fits without resting on capacitors etc, but any advice is welcome.

Comments about Perko Universal Pole Boat Light Rectangular Base, 3 3/4" x 1 3/4" dia.:
I am doing a hull-up remodel of a 25 year old aluminium bass boat and the aft Pole Light Base was in very poor condition. I ordered a new one from Gander Mountain and when it was received, I adapted the tag ends of the wiring with male/female connectors and installed it. What a great product - easy to install, easy to use and a quality item. "Let there be light!!" and "So it was!"

Comments about Perko Universal Pole Boat Light Rectangular Base, 3 3/4" x 1 3/4" dia.:
Very well built and relatively easy to install. Would have been easier with longer wires attached. Works well with 36"Universal pole that is also sold by Overtons.
