Meosphere US Cities You've Visited

If you haven't ever checked out Meosphere, you really should. It's a place to list all the things you've done, places you've been, etc. and then get a snapshot of it all.

Here's a taste (major US cities visited)...

High Tech Rescue for Venice?

One of my colleagues shared the following story with me, which I missed on NPR Monday since I was trying out the traffic features of my new Navigon GPS.

It's definitely interesting to see how Venice is coping with the threat of rising sea levels. I haven't been to Venice but hope to get there soon and wouldn't want it to be submerged before I have the chance (or ever, for that matter)!

Check out or listen to the story below!

2008 New Year's Resolutions

Here's my top 5 list (otherwise known as the 5 NY resolutions that I'm making public)...
  1. Be more earth friendly.
  2. Learn Mandarin Chinese.
  3. Read more books.
  4. Blog more often.
  5. Run more and complete another half marathon
I wish everyone a healthy and prosperous 2008!

New Year's Resolution Run 5K

I started off 2008 with one of my resolutions being to run more in the new year.

So why not start off with a 5K on New Year's Day? I did just that and actually didn't did fairly well following a time when I hadn't been running regularly!

The finishing times have been posted and my official time clocks in at 25:36 for a pace of 8:15. Like I said, I'm looking forward to many more running events in 2008.

Happy 2008

One of my New Year's resolutions for 2008 is to blog more often...so I'm starting on the first day of the year!

I hope everyone had a great New Year's Eve celebration and wish you all the best in 2008. It looks to be an exciting year at the Rogan house, now that the Duke MBA program is in the past.

2007 was a good (but crazy) year and I'm looking forward to what 2008 will bring!
