Should Short Shorts Be Banned?
I typically do my training runs in preparation for the Marathon on my lunch break at work. As a result my coworkers are subjected to my running apparel. I could be like any other guy and wear running shorts that hang below the knee, but I prefer the short shorts. Should these short shorts be abolished from existence or are they ok on a runner like me? [poll id="4"] Related posts:The Portland Marathon Needs More Social Media OutletsShort URL’s Big Impact
The Portland Marathon Needs More Social Media Outlets
Since the 6th grade I've been an avid and active runner, but I've never run a marathon before. I ran cross country, the 1500m, and 3000m in high school and finally participated in the Hood to Coast when I reached college. The Nike / Kaiser Permanente 5 miler, The 8K Shamrock run, and the Run Like Hell 1/2 Marathon have all been checked off my list, but I never thought of trying to tackle the 26.2 miles that is the Portland Marathon. I was severely dehydrated and nauseous to the point I didn't know if I was going to be able ...
Mens 6 Wardrobe Essentials
The past few weeks I've discussed fashion disasters and trends to avoid. I've also focused primarily on women's fashion that, as I learned last week, was not typically ready-to-wear. In an effort to save face with my female readers I'll be focusing on the males this week. I'll also be focusing on what you should wear instead of what shouldn't be worn. Inspired by Men Style.com's 10 fashion essentials, here is my self proclaimed Men's 6 wardrobe essentials. Dark Wash Jeans You can dress them up or you can dress them down.

The Web Enhances Music Collaboration
Music collaboration isn't limited to your buddies and a garage anymore. The use of social media and the Internet has brought musicians and song writers alike together for the ultimate collaboration. Since February 2007,Kompoz has given musicians that outlet. Classic Rock video games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band bring non-musicians together, while Kompoz brings together the non-gamers. Music collaboration has a new home. Prior to my discovery of Kompoz I didn't know of any other way to create music than to meet fellow musicians around town at shows or at school. The growth of Pro Tools and Garage Band has ...
Trader Joe’s Needs More Social Media Interaction
One of my favorite grocery stores to shop at is Trader Joes, but I wish they engaged in more social media interaction. I love their fresh produce, amazing variety and selection of alternative foods, and friendly customer service. Though Trader Joes is currently the 21st largest grocery chain, with 294 stores and $4.3 billion in sales, they're rated the 4th healthiest grocery store in America. Trader Joe's needs to take their rising business, and strong following, and nurture it with the support of social media interaction. By listening, connecting, and responding to their loyal customer base they have the opportunity ...
