Back in his college days at Bucknell University, Bob Bickel trained 100 miles/week, and pushed his 10,000-meter time down to an impressive 29:07. Then he took his electrical engineering skills into the tech industry, and enjoyed several modest successes. Next he opened a running retail store in Moorestown, NJ, and a few years later decided he could improve upon existing race registrations platforms. He was right. Run Sign Up has become the dominant road race registration platform in the U.S., because it's simple to use, and free for race directors to implement. What more could a volunteer race director ask for?We spoke to Bob about his own running career, what he learned from the team philosophy that made Bucknell a regional powerhouse in cross-country, and how he views the demographics of road racing in the U.S. today. We were particularly struck by one key statistic.According to Bob, only 6 percent of U.S. race participants participate in the top 100 races--the mega races that get nearly 100 percent of news coverage. In other words, 94 percent of U.S. runners take part in local and regional races. That's what makes the sport so deep and strong.For more about Run Sign Up, check out this 10-minute YouTube video, or read Bob's "Trends Update" for mid-year 2026.WHERE TO FIND "RUNNING: STATE OF THE SPORT"Use your smartphone to download our podcast from Apple, Spotify, Pandora, or YouTube Podcasts.

In this AskPsychSessions RE-RELEASE feature, Marianne speaks with Jasmine Mena from Bucknell University. They cover the basics of labor based grading — an approach that evaluates students on the effort and labor they invest in their work rather than traditional quality-based standards. She discusses how this method empowers students with agency over their learning, and incorporates scaffolded assignments, reflection, and compassion into the classroom.

In this episode of Talk of Fame, Kylie Montigney chats with Nisan Trotter! Growing up in the backwoods of Silverhill, Alabama, Nissan moved as fast as a Nissan 370Z. He loved sports at an early age - playing football, basketball and baseball year-round. Trotter's confidence skyrocketed in the 3rd grade, when he puckered-up and snuck a cheek-kiss to his classroom crush while she sat beside him during an earthquake drill - a subtle reminder to be fearless and take chances. By Nisan's senior year of high school, peers voted him Most Athletic and Homecoming King. Shortly thereafter, he earned a football scholarship to one of the nation's top liberal arts colleges in the northeast, Bucknell University. While he's lived in central Pennsylvania since an undergraduate, his southern roots continue to run deep with his favorite, timetested delicacies: Conecuh sausage, cheese grits, and Krispy Kreme donuts without the HOT NOW sign - no judgment! He's sold over $4 million dollars in fitness programs as a decade-plus award winning fitness entrepreneur, served in ministry since a 10-year-old, authored the best-selling book, Born Gifted, and fulfilled his mother's vision of becoming a dynamic, sought after keynote speaker. With three rambunctious, curly-haired sons named Onesimus, Osias and Omarius, and a beautiful Puerto Rican Queen named Yorelis, Nisan gives the glory to his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for life being better than what he deserves.Links Mentioned:https://www.nisantrotter.com/?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQMMjU2MjgxMDQwNTU4AAGnXnYP1EvXYBky25KokJ4vrvztluoiLxMUreS6OsrI9JjeGBLR4c1YLAxCe-I_aem_VBN1dhLmYCHaXbd1HmvcqwFollow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie!

Ottavio Fatica"Operazione Shylock"Philip RothPrefazione: Emmanuel CarrèreAdelphiwww.adelphi.it«Un libro infernale, che non si riesce a smettere di leggere. Una riflessione sul giudaismo, su Israele, sull'invecchiare, sulla menzogna, sull'invenzione, sulla letteratura – su tutto ciò che conta nella vita. Assolutamente vertiginoso. Leggetelo» (Emmanuel Carrère). Traduzione di Ottavio FaticaTraduzione della prefazione di Emmanuel Carrère: Ena MarchiNella sua burrascosa carriera, Philip Roth ci ha abituato alle più spericolate acrobazie narrative, ma mai ha osato tanto quanto in Operazione Shylock, dove, per dire e fare tutto ciò che vuole, ha sentito il bisogno di misurarsi con il suo più temibile avversario: un altro Philip Roth – stesso nome e stessi connotati, solo il nomignolo Moishe Pipik a distinguerlo da sé. Mai il tema del Doppio è stato usato in un romanzo con un tale autolesivo virtuosismo. Roth azzanna sé stesso come essere umano, come ebreo, come Philip Roth, e non si accontenta di una libbra di carne. Come congegnare, altrimenti, una spy story che tiene insieme il Mossad, il processo al mostro di Treblinka, il recupero dopo un crollo psichico da Halcion, l'incontro-scontro con ebrei e palestinesi in una Gerusalemme pattugliata dall'esercito israeliano, il faccia a faccia ustorio con l'altro Philip Roth – un megalomane che per salvare gli ebrei ashkenaziti da un probabile prossimo sterminio si fa propugnatore di una nuova diaspora, uno spregiudicato controesodo verso i paesi europei d'origine – e con la sua procace, concupita compagna? Sfoggiando una lingua viscerale e insieme altamente speculativa, Roth combina in queste pagine la più spiritata, isterica commedia nera con il dramma di popoli e di singoli individui lacerati, e mette in scena una mirabolante due-giorni a Gerusalemme che – incredibile a dirsi – fa anche ridere.Philip Milton Roth nasce a Newark, nel New Jersey, il 19 marzo del 1933 in una famiglia della piccola borghesia ebraica. Si laurea alla Bucknell University e fa un master in letteratura inglese all'Università di Chicago. Pubblica i primi racconti sulla Paris Review, su Esquire e sul New Yorker. Il suo capolavoro è Pastorale Americana, con cui vince il Premio Pulitzer nel 1997 e da cui è stato tratto un film da Ewan McGregor, che interpreta anche il ruolo del protagonista. Il libro fa parte una trilogia che comprende Ho sposato un comunista e La macchia umana. Il suo esordio avviene nel 1959 con Addio Columbus. Dieci anni dopo la fama con Il lamento di Portnoy, in cui il protagonista, un trentenne ebreo, Alexander Portnoy, racconta all'analista le proprie nevrosi sessuali.Autore di trentuno libri, Roth è stato un critico feroce della società americana, della sessualità maschile e dei falsi miti dell'uomo occidentale (in Complotto contro l'America del 2004 immagina che alle elezioni per la presidenza americana del 1940 venga eletto Charles Lindbergh anziché Roosevelt, e che questo trasformi gli Stati Uniti in un alleato della Germania nazista). Nel 2009 annuncia il suo ritiro dall'attività di romanziere. Il suo nome è apparso spesso nella lista dei concorrenti al premio Nobel per la letteratura. Muore a New York il 22 maggio 2018.Ottavio FaticaFamoso per le sue numerose traduzioni, ricordiamo: il Moby-Dick di Melville, quasi tutto Kipling, i diari di Byron, i limerick di Lear, Céline, Henry James. Per Einaudi ha pubblicato nella collana Collezione di poesie, Le omissioni (2009) e Vicino alla dimora del serpente (2019).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/
Lorenzo and Myles talk about Myles' junior year at Bucknell University.
Jeff sits down with Joe Meehan, founder of Optima Vita Consulting, whose path to wellness coaching wound through pre-med studies, a professional basketball career in Switzerland, nine years coaching Division I ball at Bucknell University, and ultimately a master's degree in medical physiology and aging from the University of Florida School of Medicine. Joe shares how all of those experiences converged into a one-on-one wellness coaching practice built around four pillars – nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management – and why neglecting even one of them tends to unravel the others. The conversation quickly becomes a candid, practical deep-dive into sleep, as Jeff opens up about his own struggles and Joe walks through the science behind why late-night meals, sugar, alcohol, and blue light are quietly sabotaging recovery for so many busy professionals.Beyond the science, Joe outlines how Optima Vita's six-month programs work – combining personalized meal plans, tailored exercise protocols, and daily coaching support through a dedicated app – and why accountability and consistency matter just as much as having the right plan. He also shares quick-win nutrition tips, breaks down intermittent fasting, and touches on 2026 goals including helping 100 individuals transform their health and expanding corporate wellness partnerships. Joe will also be joining Jeff's monthly real estate luncheon as a guest speaker, bringing his peak performance insights to a room full of high-achieving professionals.Optima Vita ConsultingSpecial thanks to:Ashley Richardson | Howard Hanna Allen Tate Real EstateThe Best of LKNhttps://thebestoflkn.com/Hosted by:Jeff Hammhttps://lknreal.com/Powered by:https://aidawerks.com/Thanks to Safe harbor Peninsula Yacht Club for their support!Support the show

Mindy Diamond on Independence: A Podcast for Financial Advisors Considering Change
With Dylan Ripley & Todd Vincent – Managing Partners and Financial Planners, Cedarwood Financial Partners Overview Todd Vincent and Dylan Ripley join Mindy Diamond to share the reality of leaving Edward Jones, defending a two-year lawsuit, and still nearly doubling their business. A candid look at resilience, and what really happens when the firm pushes back.

Neither Diamond Consultants nor the guests on this podcast are compensated in any way for their participation. Watch… https://youtu.be/G5-oAHz5kWQ About this episode… For many advisors considering change, the concern about legal retaliation from their firm often lingers in the background. But what if you move and that fear comes to fruition? What will it do to your business? And what if – instead of derailing you – it ultimately becomes a catalyst for growth? Every transition comes with some risk and uncertainty—even when you dot every “i” and cross every “t.” And a non-Protocol move adds an extra layer of complexity. This episode's guests, Todd Vincent and Dylan Ripley, learned all that firsthand. Todd spent nearly 30 years at Edward Jones, and Dylan built his career there over more than a decade, eventually partnering with Todd in a multi-office practice overseeing close to $1B in assets. Over time, they realized they could do more for their clients – and grow the business faster – if they stepped outside the traditional firm model. In exploration, they liked the idea of having a support partner rather than building their own RIA and ultimately opted for Commonwealth Financial Network to launch Cedarwood Financial Partners. The transition itself went smoothly—that is, until they found themselves navigating a lawsuit from Edward Jones that lasted nearly two years. In one of our most candid episodes yet, Todd and Dylan walk through that experience with Mindy Diamond, sharing: The choice to leave Edward Jones—and what specifically motivated them to consider change. The initial transition—and when they learned they had “poked the bear.” The reality of defending a lawsuit—and how they worked through it. The value of messaging—and how partnering with a marketing firm was a gamechanger. Nearly doubling their assets under management, despite the lawsuit—and what key traits drove their success. It's an episode that answers the question on every advisor's mind, “What happens if the firm sues me?” and does so with candor and grace. Listen in to learn how resilience drives what comes next: how advisors can steady themselves, rebuild momentum, and grow on the other side of a challenge.

Dylan RipleyCEO / Financial Planner After serving his clients at Edward Jones for almost ten years, Dylan Ripley co-founded Cedarwood Financial Partners in 2022 following a tabletop discussion on how he and his partner could better serve their clients, scratching out their vision on a napkin. From that initial napkin chat, he began diligently working to make this vision a reality through extensive research and sweat equity. Dylan holds a Bachelor of Business Management from the Carlos Alvarez School of Business at The University of Texas–San Antonio. After joining Edward Jones, he earned the Accredited Asset Management Specialist certification through the College of Financial Planning. He has a passion to serve others and does so through his service to clients and his community involvement. He is a current member of the Rotary Club of Temple, serving on the board for two years. He's also a small group leader at his church and active in local Chamber of Commerce events. Most recently he was asked to serve on the advisory board for the Salvation Army of Bell County. Dylan and his wife, Cayleigh, have three children. When he's not serving his clients or community, he can be found experiencing the world with his family, chasing kiddos around a ball field, golfing, or attending any live concert he can.

World War II in Europe left both victorious and vanquished countries devastated; yet within weeks of the end of hostilities on September 9, 1945, an automobile race was held in Paris' Bois de Boulogne. This presentation addresses the questions: where did the financial and material resources for an active post-war racing program come from, and perhaps even more importantly, why were they expended in what many might regard as a non-essential- or perhaps even frivolous - activity? Skip McGoun is the William H. Dunkak Emeritus Professor of Finance at Bucknell University and was a long-term Visiting Professor at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia and at the University of Donja Gorija in Montenegro. He has presented and published on the history and culture of finance as well as automobile history and culture and served as Area Chair of the Vehicle Culture Section of the Popular Culture Association. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Post-War Racing Revival 01:18 The State of Europe Post-WWII; Early Post-War Races 03:28 The Constructors: Britain vs. The Continent 05:29 Financial and Material Resources 13:14 The Influence of Nationalism and Sentiment 15:34 Adrenaline and the Need for Speed 18:53 Conclusion, Reflections and Q&A Session 27:48 Closing Remarks and Credits ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ This episode is part of our HISTORY OF MOTORSPORTS SERIES and is sponsored in part by: The International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), The Society of Automotive Historians (SAH), The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Argetsinger Family.

Someone once said that interviewing is tough, especially if you don't know what you're looking for. Another complicating factor is having no answer to predictable questions–a regrettably common occurrence for higher ed applicants. Amy and Mike invited educator Alison Slater to explore the importance of preparing for a college admissions interview. What are five things you will learn in this episode? Why is it important to prepare before an interview? Are interviews impactful considering that many schools don't offer them? Should students who are offered interviews take them? Who should prep for interviews and when? How can students prepare for all the interviews they are likely to have coming up? What are some questions applicants should be prepared for? MEET OUR GUEST Alison Slater graduated from Bucknell University and worked in selective college admission for fifteen years. Interviews were her favorite part of the college application process, but she found they were often missed opportunities when students arrived nervous or unprepared. They were checking a box, not maximizing an opportunity. Alison founded Interview Prep to help students make strong impressions by preparing thoughtfully and approaching each interview with confidence and a plan.

Shakespeare's Julius Caesar feels urgently contemporary in Rosa Joshi's new production at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival—one of America's largest and longest-running theater festivals, now in its 90th season. Staged in partnership with Seattle's upstart crow collective, the production explores the threat of autocracy, drawing on global histories of dictatorship. Performed entirely by women and nonbinary actors, Joshi's Julius Caesar offers new perspectives on a historically male-dominated political landscape. The result is a fresh reading of Shakespeare's classic tale of power, loyalty, and betrayal. In this episode, Joshi reflects on the production, the politics of performance, and why Shakespeare's plays continue to illuminate moments of crisis. >> Discover more about Julius Caesar at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival From the Shakespeare Unlimited podcast.

Fireflies' magical blinking lights are tiny beacons in the warm dark night. Who can resist catching one? Not scientists.Because their light comes from bodily chemicals, fireflies' power of illumination has long been used as a tool in medical research. And that has driven scientists to investigate the inner workings of the blinking beetle itself. Researchers have recently discovered that fireflies' glowing lanterns are only one of the ways they communicate.Host Ira Flatow talks with entomologist Sarah Lower and biochemist Stephen Miller about the latest advances in firefly science.Guests: Dr. Sarah Lower is an associate professor of biology at Bucknell University where she studies fireflies.Dr. Stephen Miller is a professor of biochemistry and molecular biotechnology at the UMass Chan Medical School.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In this episode, Lisa and Alison Slater discuss:Mastering college interviews as a tool for standing out in competitive admissionsBuilding confidence and communication through intentional interview prepNavigating different formats and policies of college interviewsApplying interview skills to scholarships, internships, and future jobsKey Takeaways: Starting interview prep in junior year helps students take advantage of early opportunities, including summer interviews and scholarship deadlines that may come before applications.Building a personal elevator pitch and identifying 3–5 core values allows students to answer questions with clarity and purpose across interviews and essays.Practicing out loud and doing mock interviews with someone objective improves delivery, boosts confidence, and helps uncover forgotten strengths.AI can support interview prep and school research, but the interview itself remains a valuable, real-time moment for students to show authenticity and create a personal connection.“Interview prep is a combination of preparing the skills that you need... and doing the self-reflection to be able to speak about your experiences eloquently.” – Alison SlaterAbout Alison Slater: Alison attended Bucknell University and worked in selective college admissions for fifteen years. Interviews were her favorite part of the college application process, but she found they often became missed opportunities when students arrived nervous or unprepared. Now, Alison helps students make strong impressions by preparing thoughtfully and approaching each interview with a clear plan.Episode References:#170 AI and College Essays: What Families Need to Know with Susan Knoppow: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/170#173 The Top 3 Scholarship Essays That Win Money with Leia LeMaster Horton: https://flourishcoachingco.com/173Alison's Practice Interview Questions: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/6680dabe235f54454a61cb47/t/67e1d8b1e9be040252804a25/1742854322162/Common+Interview+Questions.pdfGet Lisa's Free on-demand video: How-to guide for your teen to choose the right major, college, & career...(without painting themselves into a corner, missing crucial deadlines, or risking choices you both regret). flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Alison:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/interviewprepllc/Website: http://www.interviewprepllc.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alison-slater/ & https://www.linkedin.com/company/interview-prep-llc/Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co
