-ne I thought Iâd offer up some of the quotations that I marked in the margins (certainly one way of judging a text: How often did I pull out my pen and put a mark in the margin so that I could find this sentence again?) and some initial thoughts on why I did so, perhaps as a prompt to further conversation:âOnce employed at teaching schools, young academics may indeed break productive connections with the larger profession; And yet the fact that my colleagues for the most part never discuss research, the fact that even those of my colleagues with active research agendas only pursue them to the extent that they separate from the rest of the school and from colleagues, means that thereâs almost no faculty discussion of research, at least in my field. And since I find that I live my life mostly locallyâthat is, my colleagues at St. Martyrâs have far more to do with my day-to-day life than researchers in my field who are at different schoolsâI have in many ways lost âproductive connections with the larger profession.â Admittedly, I was never much of a networker ever in my grad school days, but I increasingly find that I donât know anyone at conferences and have a difficult time connecting with the people whom I should but donât know. But somehow to put this hierarchy on the same terms as those hierarchies of gender, race, and sexualityâall of which I deal with daily, in terms of either my own life or my researchâhelped me to think of my internalized hierarchy in political terms rather than simply in personal, emotional terms.

What has true weight is whether they still approve the original decision to go to war, and whether they want to keep troops or demand them to return home.Now, in the June 20-22 AP/Ipsos poll, the original war decision’s support fell to 42%. Steve Gilliard demands an immediate pullout for some time now, and he even attacks a liberal proponent of staged pullout (the war in the comments is maybe more significant than the posts itself), and the Billmon spinoff Moon of Alabama attacks even atrios for not denouncing the government for WMD lies.The apparent catalysts for these changes were back-stabbing attacks by mainstream Democrat representatives (like Biden, Edwards) against DNC chair Dean, after Dean dared to speak badly of Republicans.

This means that we all got together there and did a slow ride to the start ~3 miles away, halfway up a brutal river valley hill. 3 laps of a 13.5 mile loop with 1 brutal uphill and several (lots and lots) short, steep hills that concealed similar hills behind them.My mental funnies: I had an interesting conversation with my body as we rode our bikes to the start. But you just make sure you don’t go quitting halfway through, woman!Welcome to my mental pre-race fun.This is how it played out: The starting point was halfway up the river valley hill (just for a little bit of extra fun toture). The road was in terrible condition with lots of big cracks that made going down pretty unpleasant.The second lap: up the big hill where everyone is parked and watching of course. It’s really hard because the 3 miles in front of the hill are mostly up-hill as well but invisible so I really wanted to push myself on it, but knew that I wanted to save my energy for the big hill because people would be watching me 
I feel so shallow. I got a cold bottle of water the second time up the hill and actually thought I might need to get off the bike for a second. Ironically, it started sprinkling as I crossed the finish line and 10 minutes later turned into a huge 10 minute downpour.Going down the big hill into the last 4 miles of the race, I began to fear that I would flat at that point, totally wasting the last 2 hours of my life.I never was passed by the women, even the cat1/2/3s that started 10 minutes ahead of us and had 4 laps to complete instead 3. The last trip up the big hill and subsequent steep ones took some serious mental work to keep going. I think the worst was knowing that the finish was halfway up the big hill and I *still* wouldn’t be done when I got back to the campgrounds. I wasn’t sure which way to go!”To the guy with a camera on the evil hill: “Pleeeeze don’t take a picture of me!”To the corner marshal at the corner mid-course where I’d had to slow down the first two times: “Well, at least I didn’t have to slow down this time for the corner!”My second time around, Scott asked me how I felt, but I was going too fast to answer, so on the third time past the campground I yelled, I feel like ass!. in me like I could have done better, like maybe I hadn’t tried as hard as I could have to keep up with the group.While I was riding, I really felt like I was doing everything I could to keep up with the group and still felt like I did all I could to give a decent performance. And I feel fine today except for a lingering stiffness in my neck.All I can think is that I need to do lots of hill repeats and start building power and endurance.Something else that occurred to me as I was finishing: I don’t think I’ve ever actually ridden 40 miles without stopping at least once.
