IRONMAN Boulder
Nestled at the foot of the Flatirons Mountains, Boulder, Colorado is a wildly popular home-base and vacation destination for triathletes. The city's health-conscious culture, near-perfect weather and breathtaking natural environment made it an instant favorite from the first running.
Boulder's famous pedestrian-only Pearl Street Mall downtown will provide families and fans an unforgettable race day as they wait for their loved ones to cross the finish line. From five-star hotels to James Beard award-winning restaurants, Boulder's hotel and dining options are some of the best in the nation.
Once finished in the water, the first transition will start athletes on a beautiful multi-loop course all contained within Boulder County. The course has a few pronounced climbs, but in general it's a fast one. Once done with the two 40+ mile loops, athletes will complete the final 85-112 miles on an additional loop and roll into downtown Boulder for the second transition at Boulder High School.
The two-loop run course is almost entirely on Boulder Creek Trail, winding along the creek and through city parks. Spectators will have multiple opportunities to cheer on their athletes, and the last few steps of the day happen on Pearl Street, making for a triumphant finish.

Dear reader, the fun never ends! I was looking out our sliding glass door one morning while having a cup of coffee, and noticed some tall, ugly weeds across our lane. Larry had only recently cleared that area of thistles. How did those weeds get tall and bushy so quickly?
Not long after, we received a message on our city phone from a man who we had requested to take a look at our well pump. He said that he found our pump "down in that marijuana patch." So that is what those ugly weeds are! Well, maybe we just found our cash crop!
I remembered the weed commissioner laughing on the phone a while back, after giving me a list of common noxious weeds we might have on our farm. (I think we have them all!) He told me, interestingly, marijuana isn't on the list because Nebraska used to be a great rope producing state. Some people call it hemp, and the neighbors tell us it is of poor quality.
Larry posing while chopping off a marijuana plant.
One weekend when we had a burn pile going, Larry tossed in some of the large marijuana weeds from nearby. When our son, Perry, who was helping us that weekend, realized what he had been inhaling, he started getting upset about it. I couldn't figure out what the big deal was about smelling a little marijuana, but he explained he was concerned about his job. He teaches high school reading at Boys Town in Omaha and is subject to random drug testing. He worried he might fail!
For us, marijuana is just an invasive weed that we have to keep mowing off and whacking out of the fence rows. It reminds me of a quote by Robert M. Pyle. "But make no mistake: the weeds will win; nature bats last."

Kate Elliot: Crown of Stars
Over at Orbit there's an excellent article in which Kate Elliot looks back at her series Crown of Stars:
Full Story: HEREFor years I would often say apologetic things about the setting of the book – apologizing is one of those reflexive personality things that I'm really sorry I can't shake off – calling it 'faux medieval' because I was hyperaware that I am not an academic or a medievalist and thus have no specialized knowledge. Sometimes I made these kind of mildly disparaging remarks about my own work thinking it would head off criticism: for one thing, because Crown of Stars is an alternate history drawn from medieval Europe not an historical novel purporting to recreate with rigor an actual period of medieval Europe (10th century Germany, if you care about such things); for another, because I so often heard people denigrate epic/high fantasy, a genre I have always loved. At times I apologized simply because I know my writing has flaws; I'm not perfect; I make mistakes: For some reason this all had to be apologized for even if it is in the nature of creative work to have flaws.

A former Supreme Court judge who headed the bench that confirmed the death sentence of Rajiv Gandhi's assassinators said that that the four convicts should not be hanged.
Asserting that after the convicts served 22 years in jail, former judge K.T. Thomas said that hanging Murugan, Santhan and Perarivalan would be like giving them two separate punishments. He also stated that it would be a breach of Article 21 of the Constitution if they were executed.
"If they are going to be awarded (death sentence) after spending 22 years in jail, it would be like giving them two punishment for the same crime, which is against the constitution" Thomas told IANS.
Urging President Pranab Mukherjee to review the rejection of their mercy plea Thomas said, "The president should reconsider this because as of now the three have undergone a punishment more than the term of life imprisonment."
"It was my misfortune to have presided over that bench," he told The Times of India.
"At a time when the Supreme Court bench headed by me pronounced judgments in Rajiv Gandhi assassination case, apparently, we did not consider the nature and character of the accused who were sentenced to death penalty by us."
"It was only many years thereafter a bench headed by Justice S B Sinha pointed out that without considering the nature and character of accused, a death sentence should never be awarded. His judgments mentioned errors in previous SC judgments and that applies to Rajiv Gandhi assassination case."
A three-member bench of the Supreme Court, which includes Thomas, Justice D.P. Wadwah and Justice S.S.M. Quadri, had awarded capital punishment in 1999 to four assassinators including Murugan's wife Nalini. Her death sentence was commuted to that of life in 2000 after former President Prathibha Patel accepted her mercy petition following an intervention by Sonia Gandhi.
Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated at an election rally on 21 May, 1991 by a Tamil Tigers woman suicide bomber. All four were charged to have played crucial role in the killing.
The most wanted among the list was late Tamil Tigers chief Velupillai Prabhakaran, who was killed in Sri Lanka in 2009.

The University Web
The new standard
Back in the olden days of the Web (circa 2001), websites were novelties. You'd ask a resident hobbyist to build a site and it would magically appear out of nothing (and cost nothing). No standards, no accessibility concerns or even assessment tools: "Look! We've got a website. We're modern and hip!"
Fast-forward to today and ask any student where they turn first to find information and they won't hesitate to say "the Web." After all, where else would they think to find information?
If it's not on the Web, it doesn't exist
For better or for worse, your Web presence is quite possibly the most prominent piece of your organization. It's the 21st-century first impression. People will visit your site and form a snapshot opinion of your work that will either help or hinder your goals. Here's what you need to know to make sure that first impression is a good one.
- Organize, organize, organize.
Provide a clear, easy-to-navigate interface. Designing the layout of your site should be one of the most time consuming parts of your process. Once you have a good layout, then figure out how to make it pretty.
- Only build what you can maintain.
News pages and event calendars often seem like good ideas until it comes to keeping them updated. Keep this in mind when building new websites.
- Keep your information up to date.
Closely related to above, if you haven't updated your site since 2008, people are less likely to take your site (and you) seriously.
- Prioritize and cater to a target audience:
Always consider who your most important audience is and what they expect of your site. Then design accordingly. While faculty and staff may visit a department website most often, prospective students are the ones adding FTE and growing the department.
- Connect your site to the university and parent divisions:
Unit websites need to visually and contextually connect to their parent divisions and the larger university. Individual sites should link to other University departments and services rather than exist as an island.
- Limit your use of PDFs.
Linking to PDFs is a fast way to get information on the Web. However, that information is more effective and accessible if you take the time to input the text and images directly into your website instead of relying on the PDF.
Don't just build websites. Build them well.
Like building codes, Web standards are a set of rules and guidelines for building structurally sound web sites. The official standard bearers are found at the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). They craft standards to help minimize browser display errors and maximize the accessibility to the visually- and mobility-impaired community.
Visit the W3C website to learn everything you ever wanted to know about the Web: www.w3c.org
Does this sound daunting?
It's true, working on the web can be confusing and difficult. What if we told you we could make it easy for you? What if we took away the fancy design programs like and made working on the web possible for the rest of us? What if we could deliver powerful, professional results while saving you time, money and gray hair? Come take a look at our content management system.

Golden Key International Honour Society is thrilled to welcome our 100,000th member from Canada, Karla Gorospe from the University of Windsor!
Founded in 1977, Golden Key has more than two million members worldwide. In 1997, Golden Key established its first chapter in Canada and has been welcoming high-achieving students into the Society across Canada since then.
Karla is pursuing a bachelor's degree in Applied Science Honours, Civil Engineering Co-op at the University of Windsor. She is currently in her second year at the university and plans to graduate in fall of 2017. Gorospe will be honored at the chapter's annual New Member Recognition Event on 21 November 2014. Many of the new Golden Key members, their family and friends, chapter officers and university faculty will be present at the event. Golden Key's Director of Canada, Ian Sankey, will also attend the event and will present Gorospe with a special certificate. Her mother and father will be at the event to see her get recognized.
Gorospe has ambitious career goals. She plans to become a professional engineer and also wants to eventually manage her own consulting firm. She will pursue a master's degree in engineering to help her reach her goals.
Gorospe let us know that she is excited to become involved with the chapter on campus and apply for scholarships. One of the reasons she joined Golden Key is because her older sister is a member. When her sister attended the GK International Summit in 2012, she was "amazed at the different service opportunities and educational recognition" that was provided. She is interested in the community involvement opportunities, leadership positions and networking that Golden Key provides.
In addition to being a Golden Key member, Gorospe is involved in her community and on campus. Since 2008, she has been volunteering at her church as a Sunday School assistant. At the university, she is part of the Connecting4Success program where she mentors an incoming first-generation university student and provides them with advice and guidance. She is a member of the Outstanding Scholars Program in the university. Her team won first place in the junior design category at the Windsor Engineering Competition in 2013. And, she is on the President's List.
"Now that I was named as the 100,000th member, it is even more rewarding to know that many Canadian students are achieving academic excellence and taking leadership roles and meaningful involvement in the community. I have no doubt that more future leaders of this great nation will emanate from the GK membership," she said.
Golden Key is proud to recognize Karla Gorospe for helping the Society reach this milestone.

By Ronald Ahrens
Throughout the 1950s and into the 1960s, General Motors was the most admired corporation in America. The company had received credit for single-handedly saving the national economy in 1955, when chairman and chief executive Red Curtice decided, despite the forecast of a recession, to go ahead with plant expansion worth $1 billion. Curtice was subsequently named Time's man of the year; GM executive Ed Cole, the father of the Corvair, would appear on the cover of that magazine in 1959, and Curtice's replacement Fred Donner also got a cover in 1962.
But all that good will was thrown away. On November 30, 1965, Ralph Nader, the son of Lebanese-immigrant parents, published Unsafe at Any Speed: The Designed-In Dangers of the American Automobile. While Nader's book is a sweeping exposé in the tradition of The Jungle, it might have made no mark whatsoever; some 20,000 copies were sold in the first three months. Not bad, but not quite a blockbuster. GM's legal department assured otherwise, though. Led by chief counsel Aloysius Power and egged on by Eileen Murphy, GM's first female attorney who was the department's librarian, the company started spying on Nader. He received harassing calls at his unlisted number in northwest Washington, D.C., and was tailed as he traveled to TV appearances in February of 1966. One investigator interviewed Nader's acquaintances to learn his political beliefs, whether he was anti-Semitic, and whether he was gay.
Standing at a drugstore newsstand on February 20, Nader was "leafing through an auto magazine when a woman apologized for being forward but asked if he would like to participate in a 'foreign affairs discussion' at her apartment," according to the New York Times.
Three days later, Nader was choosing a package of cookies in a supermarket when "a young woman asked him for help in moving some heavy articles at her residence." After he said no, the woman didn't ask any of the other men in the store.
By March 10, the spying story had broken. Bunkie Knudsen, GM's new executive vice president for overseas operations, was with Donner in Honolulu at the beginning of an around-the-world tour of company facilities. In the early 1960s Knudsen devoted some effort to critiquing Donner's policies and his personal style, which was imperious, and his emphasis on long meetings that mired everybody in minutiae. Donner was also too involved in determining the particulars of individual car models. Nevertheless, Knudsen was clearly on the boss's side, now, perhaps not in the least because he hoped his next promotion would be to GM president. He recorded the reaction to the Nader bust in his diary:
"Fred found out we—through our Legal Dept.—had been investigating Nader. We had to admit it after first denying it. Fred is very upset as he should be. I can't understand why they would do such a thing."
At a cocktail party the next evening, Knudsen found Donner feeling "blue" and questioning his own leadership ability. But he also said the legal department "got their just due since they have been continually lecturing on the need to be Simon Pure."
Shock from Across the Dateline
On Saturday, March 19, the men were in Adelaide, South Australia, where the fall festival was in progress. Donner took a call from Roche and learned the "accusations relative to [the] investigation were true and Jim's statement is one of eating crow. This whole thing will hurt us badly both with the public and with our competition."
The next week, company president Jim Roche and the legal department were in Washington, separately appearing before Congress. Roche sweated out his auto-da-fé before Senator Abe Ribicoff's traffic safety subcommittee, admitting guilt and accepting blame. But Power, making a basket with his fingers, Murphy, looking desperately bored, and Louis Bridenstine, assistant general counsel, frowning and reflecting great solemnity, also appeared before the subcommittee. Power said it was he who'd authorized the investigation of Nader—but not to harass him. And Power said Murphy handled the details.
In a WASP-y outfit like GM, it didn't go unnoticed that the three guilty parties—Roche, Power, and Murphy—all happened to be Roman Catholics.
That Saturday, now in Sydney, Knudsen wrote, "It appears Fred has some questions in his mind vis-à-vis Jim. He can't say. He keeps on feeling sorry for Jim. The Nader investigation has hurt Jim and Fred can't be blamed in any way. Jim who is the most detailed man got caught with Power on the investigation—his buddy and a fellow churchman. This hurts Fred deeply and brings out the religious affiliation. Fred has never said this but it is very obvious.
Two weeks later, after stops in Singapore and Bangkok, they made their way to Beirut. After meeting with dealers and distributors, Donner and Knudsen went on an excursion to see the ruins of the Baalbek Valley. It was a "nerve-wracking" trip, Knudsen reported. "They pass on curves and going uphill and they drive very fast. They are reckless and have many accidents. I would suggest that Ralph Nader come to his hometown and see how they drive."
In the Aftermath, Scorn for Corporations
Knudsen was right in predicting the incident would hurt GM.
"General Motors had been marked as arrogant and mendacious," wrote Ed Cray in Chrome Colossus: General Motors and Its Times. The National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act was passed later that year, and Congress wasn't inclined to cut Detroit any slack on complying with new regulations.
Roche succeeded Donner as chairman and big cheese in 1967, and the next interval saw GM involved in a huge recall of Chevrolets with faulty engine mounts that could cause sticking throttles. The company showed additional insensitivity when Roche's successor as president—not Knudsen, after all, but Ed Cole—was quoted in the New York Times saying, "There is no real danger and no reason a person shouldn't drive the car in a normal manner. A person driving a car should be a skilled driver, and if he can't manage a car under 25 miles per hour, he shouldn't be driving."
Cole—along with influential automotive editors like David E. Davis, Jr.—never quit defending the Corvair, either.

What does a fishing pole, bee keepers hat, a butterfly net, along with a jar of jelly beans, aka Louisiana black bear bait have in common?
It is the making of a great adventure!
After being inspired by young cousins, LaTonya Richardson wrote
'Going On a Bear Hunt,' was released February 28. A children's picture book about the adventure of two city boys who find themselves bored in Lockhart, Louisiana. Uncle Eddie Ray takes Aiden and Austin on a bear hunt they will never forget.
"I love this story; the uncle is so clever that the boys don't realize the trick he's pulled on them! This fun adventure will appeal to boys, uncles, and any who've ever wanted to go on a bear hunt." Pam Margolis, the Unconventional Librarian.
'Going On a Bear Hunt' was illustrated by a University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff sophomore and art major, Matthew Fields.
When making plans for the project, Richardson, a University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff instructor, and alumni knew she wanted to use a UAPB student.
"I asked Danny Campbell, chairperson of the Art Department about a student, and without hesitation said he had the perfect person. On Campbell's word, and after seeing only one sample of Fields' work we met. He brought my story and vision to life. I am more than pleased."
'G0ing On a Bear Hunt,' is available online at Amazon.com, CreateSpace.com, and wherever books are sold. For more information, author visits, or book signings in your neck of the woods email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Orchids can be found growing all over the world, with a few exceptions of course. They grow in temperate as well as tropical regions. Depending upon their natural home, every orchid is adapted to t...

KEENE, N.H. - The Keene State College women's lacrosse team fell to league-leading Plymouth State 15-11 on Tuesday evening at the Owl Athletic Complex.
- Keene State: 6-7 (3-3 LEC)
- Plymouth State: 8-5 (6-0 LEC)
How It Happened
The visiting Panthers established their offensive power in the first half, as Sarah Thompson opened the scoring just 27 seconds in, when she finished off a free-position shot. Nine minutes later, Keene State answered when Emily Parker took a Marina Pappalardo feed and tied things up at one. The Owls goal seemed to wake Plymouth State, as the visitors rang off eight straight goals. Elizabeth McLaughlin scored a free position shot, before Veronyca Daniels scored three in a row, in a four minute span. Sam Fiore then rattled in three straight herself, to give the Panthers an 8-1 lead, before Kimberly Zuccaro tacked on her first. At the 8:04 mark, Tess Masci finally got one back for KSC off an Emily Parker pass. Daniels then scored her fourth of the game for Plymouth, off a free-position shot, before Chelsea Lewis ended the half with a goal for the Owls off another Parker helper, Keene State trailed 10-3 after one.
PSU came out of half time clicking on all cylinders offensively, as Sam Fiore grabbed her fourth. 14 seconds later, Ali Daisy scored her first goal of the game off a Brigid Casey feed, before the Panthers rung off three straight. With the score 14-4, KSC seemed to develop a bit of an offensive rythym as Daisy and Casey scored back to back goals. Zuccaro brought one back for Plymouth to make it a 15-6 game, before the Owls went on a 5-0 run. At the 14:50 mark, Chelsea Lewis fired in a long distance shot for a goal off a Casey feed, Tess Masci scored a free position shot and Casey added a goal off a free-position shot as well. Lewis then scored another free position shot, and Masci finished off a great pass from Pappalardo. Keene State did run out of time, as Plymouth escaped with a 15-11 win, and clinched the number one seed in the LEC tournament.
Inside the Crease
- Daniels led all scorers with five goals and three assists. Fiore finished with six goals and McLaughlin had one goal and three assists.
- Tess Masci and Chelsea Lewis both scored a hat-trick. Brigid Casey had two goals and two assists, Emily Parker had a goal and two assists, and Ali Daisy had two goals.
- Meaghan Allard picked up the win in net with four saves, while Joanna Steinhauer had nine saves in the loss.
- Kimberly Zuccaro led with five caused turnovers, Megan Gorham had four for the Owls.
- PSU outshot KSC 36-24.
- With a win over Eastern Connecticut on Saturday, Keene State would guarentee themselves a quarterfinal home game in the LEC tournament next week.
Up Next
- Keene State travels to Eastern Connecticut for their last regular season game at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 27.
- Plymouth State heads to Castleton on Saturday, April 27 for a 1:00 p.m. start.

Registry Services on the Glass - Part 1: Registration
Denilson Nastacio 2000000C8X Visits (10077)
The Hitchhiker's Guide to interfacing with Registry Services two-part series introduced everything you needed to know about Registry Services' concepts in order to write a client application. If you are already familiar with RESTful interfaces and RDF models, you probably can skip a good part of it.
The Java language is certainly very popular and well-covered in the Registry Services samples, but it will not be of much help if your code runs inside a web-browser and you are not keen on suffering through the time-tested pain of mixing applets with real code.
For those wanting a pure Javascript solution, there is an extensive collection of frameworks out there. I particularly suggest that you skim through the excellent summary under "Strategies for Building Semantic Web Applications". I chose the RDFQuery plugin for jQuery for the comprehensive RDF support, and for jQuery's small footprint and wide adoption in the developer community. Still on my list is trying to figure out a direct connection between RDF resources and Dojo data stores, the other 800lb gorilla of Javascript frameworks.
Before you start, if you are like me, you probably would prefer to have the complete source code on hand while reading through the explanations, so I uploaded the entire example to GitHub.
You need an RDF resource for your Service Provider record first…
Assuming you have read through the OSLC Core specification for a Service Provider, you know a Service Provider should have at least one Service, which would lead you to an RDF model like the one below, using Notation 3/N-Triples/Turtle representation. Pause to note that this type of notation is not yet supported in Registry Services, but it is more compact for usage in a blog entry and also easier to map to a triple-based RDF programming framework like RDFQuery.
…then map it to RDF statements
Here is the Javascript snippet that would create the RDFQuery databank ('databank' is RDFQuery-speak for an in-memory RDF model) :
The next step is to convert that databank to a payload that can be understood by Registry Services, such as abbreviated RDF/XML:
With the HTTP POST request payload in hands, it is time to let jQuery send the request to the Registry Services application:
Note that the URL parameter assumes the web-application containing the Javascript is running on the same server running Registry Services. Cross-site domain restrictions and workarounds apply.
RDF model for a Registration Record…
With the location of the service provider in hands, it is not possible to proceed with creating a registration record for that service provider.
Here is the RDF model, again in Notation 3/N-Triples/Turtle representation:
…and its mapping to Javascript
Once again, you can use the now familiar sequence of Javascript code to create the RDFQuery databank and post it to the Registry Services application:
And that is it!
Once the two script sequences are executed, you should have both a Service Provider and a corresponding Registration Record inside Registry Services. If you are running the sample in the GitHub repository, you should see the resulting URLs for the two records nicely displayed on a table. If you do give it a try, I am interested in your overall experience following the series.
In the next entry I will go over an example of how to query data from Registry Services.

Qin concert by John Thompson
Enjoy an evening of live music by John Thompson, internationally renowed qin player. The qin is a seven-stringed instrument from the zither family, its first use dating back to ancient China. This musical performance will be held at the Asian Art Gallery from 6-8PM and is free and open to the public.
John Thompson, the best-known performer of early music for the Chinese guqin silk string zither, began his studies in Taiwan in 1974, learning the traditional repertoire from National Treasure Sun Yü-ch'in. Since 1976, though, he has focused on reconstructing old melodies directly from tablature, by now having recorded over 200 melodies learned from 15th, 16th and 17th century handbooks. From 1980 to 2000, while serving as artistic consultant to the Hong Kong Festival of Asian Arts, he continued his own research and performance, publishing seven CDs of his musical reconstructions and four books of transcriptions. Since moving to the New York area in 2001 he has continued his research, also performing and lecturing in the United States and Europe as well as in Asia. His website, silkqin.com, is the most comprehensive source of information on this music and its cultural and historical context.
Presented by:
Asian Arts Council, a support group of Phoenix Art Museum.

Lumene CC-Cream

I haven't had the pleasure of trying CC-creams before, but they should basically act like a lighter version of a foundation that evens out any imperfections on your skin. It was the beginning of the summer when I got my hands on Lumene Color Correcting Cream. So it was right time to get something less heavier for warmer weather. While I am not too worried about going out bare faced, that is what I have been doing for couple of weeks with this hot weather, it is still good to have a option to put on your makeup and still feel comfortable.
This cream comes in pretty tube that gives product out like you want it, not how the developers of it wanted to. I have the shade light, but is also comes in a medium and deep tone. Even if I have a bit of a tan on right now it still suits for me when blending good. So not knowing prefect shade isn't too crucial and will be still wearable when you pick the wrong one.
Lumene promises it to act in a six different ways, act like a fine textured foundation that evens out any redness, cover like a concealer, smooth skin like a primer, highlight and brighten skin like an illuminator, last long enough like a long lasting foundation and give sun protection of SPF20.
It is suitable for every skin type and gives a semi-matte finish.
The consistency of it is perfect, not too thick but not to liquid either. It blends easily and you don't need to work hard with it. You don't even need a brush with it to be honest, hands work just perfect and give you desirable finish. I do give credit to it for its coverage, it cover pretty well any redness or discolouration, I only need to put concealer under my eyes when using it. You won't get the layer that full coverage foundation would give you, instead you get natural looking buildable medium coverage.
The primer part of it is also very true, it hides any big looking pores, smooths skin so well and gives it good power of staying on longer than expected. I doesn't highlight as much as I was hoping, but that isn't big deal as dewiness can also be added separately with a proper highlighter. Therefore I would say it has more of a matte finish but not in a suffocating mask way, It just has the ability to keep oiliness at bay.
What do you think of CC-creams? Am I too late to jump on the bandwagon?

Today is the final day of The Purpose Driven Life journey! I've learned a lot – I hope you've discovered some valuable nuggets too.
Let's get on with it then!
Living on purpose is the only way to really live. Everything else is just existing.
Most people struggle with three basic issues in life. The first is identity: "Who am I?" The second is importance: "Do I matter?" The third is impact: "What is my place in life?" The answers to all three questions are found in God's five purposes for you. Continue reading

After this past weekend's Crooked Road 24 hour event, people are always wondering if they could do one and why would anyone want to run 24 hours?! That was the reaction of my students when they asked what I did this past weekend. It made me really think that maybe I am a bit crazy and it's really not something most runners would ever consider, let alone attempt. So I thought I'd list some of the reasons why running a 24 hour event might be the very thing missing in your running life!
Grab a group of friends and all sign up for a 24 hour event and you have an instant tailgating party without the alcohol or football! The very nature of the event makes it instantly social. You not only get to share laps with friends, but you also have a chance to meet new folks! I spent more time laughing and cutting up vs running hard and zoning out. Out of the entire 43 miles, I wore music for 4 of those miles. Yes, 4 of those! The rest of the time was spent talking and laughing with friends while we looped the park. It's also a time to celebrate each other's successes! We cheered for several people as they hit "mile"stones, knowing that you shared some of the miles together! It instantly creates a memory and a bond when you took part in someone's PR distance!
If you want to fall back in love with running and reset, run a 24 hour event. The only clock you have to worry about is the 24 hour one. There is no award for finishing anything "first" each lap. There is no competition to try and come in at a certain time and trying to win an AG. There is just running! I have no idea what lap anyone is on. I have no clue what anyone's mileage goal is. The only thing I do know is that everyone is out there together, running laps. Each working towards their own personal goal that has NOTHING to do with time, but miles run.
In the words of my friend, Carole…you got to take it slow! 24 hour events are about endurance vs speed. You have to find the right pace for yourself that allows you to run for the duration. It's an awesome chance to just be in the moment and run. I literally have no clue what my pace was per mile until the last 5 min of the entire race when Christine and I took off sprinting. Other than that, as my Garmin beeped each for each mile, I celebrated another mile run vs what ever that pace was. I wasn't "killing" any miles. That feels so great to say! I wasn't "killing" anything.
We all know we can reach PR's in races with good training, but have you ever thought how far you could run vs how fast? A 24 hour is a perfect time to test yourself and learn to ignore that tiny voice in your head that brings out the doubt. For myself, saying "I've run 50 miles" (Crooked Road 2013) before has just as much of a rockstar sound to it as "I PR'ed (insert any race here)". I love knowing that my body allowed me to run that far and I didn't feel like throwing up after.
The very reason you run a 24 hour event is run an ultra distance without having a time limit. I never considered to willingly sign up for an actual 50K race with a time limit because I know I'd feel the pressure to "race" it. With a 24 hour event, you can run a 50K distance without having to feel like you have to push to get it done in a certain amount of time. It's a good event to gain some success at running longer distances where one day actually signing up for a timed 50K might be an option!
Would you consider running a 24 hour event? Or is it something that you can't even wrap your head around?

Happy Week!

Friday Happy Hour: Devil Spider Edition
Friday, October 26, 2018
The nation was shaken Wednesday as word came that a series of pipe bombs were mailed to two former presidents and other high-profile Democrats. Thankfully, none of the devices detonated, and no one was injured. Within minutes, two distinct theories emerged on social media as to why the bomb threats happened. It was either a) President Trump's fault, or b) a hoax perpetrated by the Democrats themselves, because that is currently who we are as a nation.
While we were lovingly crafting today's tome, law enforcement found said jackwagon.
There was some good and bad news on the economic front this week as the GDP grew by a robust 3.5 percent in the third quarter, powered by big consumer spending. The stock market, however, continued to act like a kid who just ate a whole bag of Halloween candy, bouncing around wildly in every direction.
With the stroke of the old gubernatorial pen, Gov. Tom Wolf set Harrisburg free from the bonds of Act 47. Up next will be an appointed financial oversight board that will control the city's finances for five years before kicking it out of the nest to see if it can fly again.
A group of 11 Pennsylvania counties have registered their collective opposition to being forced to buy new voting machines by December of 2019. Their arguments are that the machines will be unnecessary, since they are not connected to the Internet and therefor, cannot be hacked. The Battle of the Paper Trail has begun!
Advocates for child sex assault statute of limitations reform are not going gently into that good night, we learned this week. Victims of the Catholic clergy assaults gathered once again in the State Capitol to urge the Senate to come back and vote. While a lame-duck session vote once seemed inconceivable, there is now a crack in that door, it would seem.
Governor Wolf this week also signed legislation that would give grandparents new rights in raising grandchildren. One tragic byproduct of the opioid and heroin scourge (as if there aren't enough already) is that there are a whole lot of Pennsylvania kids being raised by their grandparents – about 84,000, according to recent estimates.
A bill to add work requirements to some Medicaid recipients did not fare quite as well, as Wolf vetoed that legislation minutes after it hit his desk. Considering he had vetoed similar legislation previously, we are still uncertain as to why the General Assembly sent it to him again. Perhaps, and we are just spit-balling here, it had something to do with a certain election coming up in 12 days?
The Pittsburgh City Schools will not be arming their guards anytime soon, thanks to a vote by the school board this week. Seven of eight board members voted "no thanks" to the idea which (again) begs the question: why did it even bother going to a vote? We aren't exactly math wizards up here, but we can count to eight.
Attorney General Josh Shapiro is one of the more progressive people to ever hold that post in Pennsylvania, so it should come as no surprise that he is investing considerable resources in ensuring diversity among his 800 employees. Say what you want about Shapiro, but he walks the walk. Kudos to you, General.
The final voter registration numbers in are, and Pennsylvania got a bit bluer this year. In 2018, the Democratic Party added 135,000 new voters, compared with just 38,000 for the GOP. Party registration hasn't necessarily meant much in Pennsylvania recently, as Democrats in the western part of the state are often more conservative than southeastern PA Republicans. For starters, check and see how many Democratic-majority counties in western Pennsylvania voted for Hillary Clinton. It won't take you long.
And we were also reminded this week that, despite the breathless media coverage of all the newly registered millennials and young adults, one thing in the Keystone State remains constant: there are still a metric ton of older voters, and trust us, they WILL be voting on Nov. 6. Seniors skip elections about as often as we skip our morning coffee around here.
As the race for Pennsylvania governor comes down the back stretch, we thought we would share this handy "where they stand" guide with you, since Lord knows this has been the sleepiest election we have seen since Governor Ridge sailed to re-election against Ivan Itkin, despite the catchiest jingle in history "Itkin be done; Ivan can do it."
Whether the fabled blue wave materializes, it bears watching the race in Pennsylvania's First Congressional District, where incumbent GOP member Brian Fitzpatrick is locked in a death struggle with Democrat Scott Wallace. More than $7 million has already been pumped into this cage match, and this much we know: If the early returns show that Fitzpatrick will hang on, Nancy Pelosi may want to put the gavel back in the drawer. If Wallace jumps out to a big lead, its gonna be a long night for congressional Republicans.
A week after President Trump rallied his faithful in Erie, Vice President Mike Pence and Eric Trump popped in to say hello to Pennsylvania voters. Team Trump is spending quite a lot of time and political capital here in Pennsylvania, which tells you all you need to know about how important the state is to the national GOP.
In our We Can't Make This Up segment this week, we take you to Fulshear, Texas, where video emerged of a giant spider getting ready to attack a police officer. Once everyone viewing the dashcam footage cleaned out their pants, they realized the spider was on the windshield in front of the dashcam, and not, in fact, a four-foot long devil spider from hell. Doesn't matter, we would have shot the windshield anyway.
That's what passes for news around here as we head off to a chilly weekend! If you haven't yet registered to vote in Pennsylvania yet, sorry! You are out of luck until next year! From all your friends at Triad, have a great weekend!

International student survival guide to Singapore
Sunny Singapore is a country that is located on the southern tip of the Malay peninsula in Southeast Asia. With a unique history that has led Singapore to become what it is today, the city is full mouth-watering food and will certainly be an eye-opening experience for international students. Here, people of all races and religions co-exist harmoniously and even some of the traditions, cultures and slang have gone through so much blending and melding that they are
