Making Changes

Joe Wilhite,
Editor-in-Chief
At some point, everyone gets a little older and has to make some changes. That includes Boyd StreetMagazine which is almost ten years old. Its hard to believe a little college magazine is read by so manypeople. I get requests every week from people who want to subscribe and have it mailed to them. If youstarted reading Boyd Street in your 20s, that means you are now in your 30s. So with this issue, I want tointroduce you to Boyd Streets older brother, Main Street Magazine. Main Street is designed to includefeatures and advertising for those outside the OU community who are also still interested in what goes onaround the university and Campus Corner. Its the ip side to Boyd Street. We have a lot of plans for MainStreet, so watch out, weve only just begun.
Until next time, enjoy your summer.

hen I think of the Millenial generation, I think ofpeople who like shiny new technology, adventurebigger than their history and things they can getfor free. While adventure comes free, shiny newtechnology usually doesntbut sometimes the
things that the technology provides you does.Your mind might have just jumped to illegal downloading,
but there are lots of legitimate ways to nd some of yourfavorite media for free. The music industry has provided uswith several options: Pandora, Grooveshark and now Spotifyare some of the most popular websites that provide consumerswith music in return for advertisements.
Similarly, there are plenty of options for nding your favoritemovies for free. The rst, least expected, a nd probably mostreliable is the library. Thats right, the place where they putthose old paper things your grandmother used before youbought her a Kindle for Christmas. Libraries have a large stockof movies in Blu-ray, DVD and VHS (if youre in your parentsbasement and they wont give you anything but the VCR). Evenif you cant nd the movie that youre looking for, chances arepretty good that your local library could get it from anotherlibrary in its network.
There are some lms available online. A surprising numberof independent lmmakers put up good movies on theirwebsites or their Vimeo or YouTube accounts, so if youre up forexploration you could uncover some gems with just a little bitof digging.
YouTube and Hulu also have full-length movies availableas a sub-category of videos, in genres and styles ranging thefull spectrum of movie history. Crackle (www.crackle.com) isanother online movie service that provides internet users withfree, legal access to movies.
Usually your cable provider provides online access to someTV and movie services as well. This allows you to access lmsremotely from your laptopor, perhaps more importantlyfor the college students, to access lms on your parents homecable account remotely from your laptop. Check with yourprovider to see if they have a login available for you.
Why all of the free legal movies, you ask? That depends.
Usually, online sites will balance movies with advertisementsin order to keep their audience and their revenues coming.Sometimes new lmmakers, or experienced lmmakerstesting out new lms, provide lms just for the opportunity ofexposure and feedback. Cable companies recognize the powerof the internet and are trying to learn how to c ash in on thatvalue, and libraries are, as always, in the beautiful business ofproviding resources for the education and entertainment ofthe public.
So get yourself a library card, a laptop or some other sort ofshiny new technology and nd a free lm that will paint yourpicture of adventure.

Five Ways to Beat Cardio Boredomo you nd yourself doing the same old cardio
routine day after day? Lack of variety in yourexercise program can be tedious, unmotivatingand at out BORING!!!! If you nd yourself fallingvictim to cardio boredom then it is time for a
much needed change.Get creative with your workouts and try any one of these veways to add variety and spice up your workout today.
#1 Add In Intervals:Interval training refers to bouts of higher intensity exerciseinterspersed with periods of lower intensity exercise or rest.One of the great things about interval training is that it canbe used for all of your favorite aerobic exercises, includingwalking/running on a treadmill (or outside), stair climbing,elliptical trainers, swimming or cycling. There is an unlimitednumber of ways you can make cardio intervals dierent. Younever have to do the same workout twice. Intervals can be areal time saver too. No need for a marathon cardio sessionwhen incorporating intervals, 30 minutes will do. In fact,research shows interval training improves tness levelsand burns more calories over a shorter period of time thantraditional steady state aerobics. Here are a few sampleinterval workouts to get you started.
A) Standard Workout:Alternate between high intensity and low intensity intervals.-5 minute warm-up (start light and gradually increase theintensity at the end of the warm-up period)-alternate 1 minute higher intensity work with 1 minute oflower intensity (or rest), repeat 8-10 times-5 minute cool-down (lower the intensity, and continue to
decrease by the end of the cool-down period)
B) Pyramid Workout:The pyramid structure allows you to start with short burst ofspeed, and then you will peak at the longest surge of energyin the middle of your workout before coming back down.-5 minute warm-up-30 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-45 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-60 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-90 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-60 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-45 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-30 seconds high intensity, 1 min. low intensity-5 minute cool-down
#2 Mix It In:Try incorporating short cardio segments into your resistancetraining routine. For example, between sets jump on atreadmill or stepmill for 2 minutes then head back to yourweight workout. Or, if you want to avoid cardio machinesall together, add in 30-60 seconds of jumping jacks, jumprope, mountain climbers, burpees, jump squats, etc. intoyour weight routine. This is another great option when youreshort on time but want to squeeze in both weight trainingand cardio.
#3 Try a Class:
Most gyms oer group tness classes and often they arefree of charge. Spin, Zumba and card kickboxing are all greatalternatives to the normal cardio routines. Most classes lastabout an hour and are over and done before you know it. Trya dierent class each week to add variety or to nd the classthat best suits you. Pick up a schedule the next time yourein the gym.
#4 The 6-5-4 Plan:Start by picking three dierent cardio machines. For example,begin on the treadmill, walk or jog for 6 minutes. Then headstraight to the stepmill and complete 5 minutes there. Laststop is the bike, where you will nish with a 4 minutes ride.Repeat two times through, and before you know it you willhave knocked out 30 minutes of exercise. If youre in the moodfor a longer cardio session complete the plan 3 times throughor increase the time segments to your desired duration.
#5 Take It Outside:Take your workout outdoors. Find an empty parking lot,school track, stadium stairs or open eld. Design yourworkout with sprints, foot drills, pushups, crunches, squats,lunges and more. Here is a sample track/stadium workoutto try.
*Sample workout*
Track Set:-5 minute warm-up (light jog around track)- run 1/4 mile (1 lap around track)-4 x 100 meter sprints (sprint then walk back to starting line,
repeat 3 more times)-run 1/4 mile-2 x 100 meter sprints with lunges (sprint then lunge backto starting line)
Stadium Set:-2 x stair sprints-1 x walking stairs, skipping every other step-25 bodyweight squats-15 push-ups*repeat for a total of 3 times through-5 minute cool-down (head back to the track, walk 1/4 mile)
D
When you start cardio, start slow.
Dont overdo your heart or your
muscles.
Always look up new short exercises
you can do to add variety.
If you use weights, use light
weights and high reps to adddenition to your muscles.
Using your body weight as
resistance can also increase muscle
denition as well as burning fat,
working out cardio and muscle at
the same time.

Culinary Adventures
Opportunity (and Cooking!) AwaitsLooking forward to a new article and a new writer.
By KelliNicole
Who doesnt like a good article on food? People with notastebuds, thats who!
With the expansion ofBoyd Street Magazines big brother,Main Street Magazine, we have decided to venture out intothe increasingly popular unknown: the cooking world.
More and more people each day are become aware of foodculture. Does that mean in a few decades, we will all be awareof the delicacies that lie around us? Absolutely not. There willalways be that one person who cant live without the Big Mac,the simple mac n cheese from a box or the microwave dinner.
However, that does not mean we are all like that, am I right?As I grew older, and started living on my own, cooking becamean adventure. I could do whatever I wanted with whateveringredients I felt like using. If I wanted to use cauliower, Icould. If I wanted to eat homemade hummus, I would. If Iwanted to bake mozzarella sticks, by George you werent goingto stop me!
Its become a passion of mine to learn about all forms ofcooking, whether it be frying, baking, sauteeing, steaming,or pureeing. I want to learn about all types of cuisine: Asian,Carribean, Mexican, Spanish, Thai, Indian and even good old-fashioned American food.
Its exciting to know that I can teach myself these things by
just a simple click on the internet, sending me o into an arenawhere millions of people trying the same thing Im trying,asking the same questions Im asking. But theres something
about using the internet to cook thats just a little detached tome. I like to have papers, recipe cards that my grandmother, oreven my great-grandmother passed down in our family. Its likea secret I get to keep.
One thing Ive learned since Pinterest has entered my life is thatrecipes are endless. People change them to meet their dietaryneeds, omit things because they dont like the taste or makechanges just out of curiosity. Food blogs have also opened upa huge door of opportunity, giving people the chance to try avariety of interesting recipes that were previously inaccessible.
The unfortunate yet sometimes fantastic thing about food
blogs is that most of the people Ive personally come acrosshave been across the country, or even the world. There are somepretty fantastic chefs and bakers right in our own backyard, we
just have to seek them out!
Im hoping with this cooking article, Ill be able to explore thecooking world around Norman, showing people that its not toohard to try a new recipe. There are so many local establishmentswho are willing to give some of their greatest cooking tips toreaders, even though sometimes its just more fun to go outand purchase that delicious looking cupcake from a bakery, orbuy those homemade trues with fabulous unique avors.Ill be exploring Normans best and most unique, give readersa chance to explore something new in the food and cookingworld. Who knows, you might even nd a niche!

Predictions for the Big 12Whats gonna happen this year? Heres an idea ...
You can follow Chris Joseph on ...
@chrisjoseph1400
And listen to his show 360 Sports on Sports Talk 1400from 5-7 P.M. Monday through Friday.
he preseason polls have been released in the Big 12 and the preseason All-
Conference teams have been named. I am in Dallas for Big 12 Media Days,
the unocial start of the upcoming football season. So heres my shot at
prognostication for the conference and what I think will happen during this football
season.
First of all the Big 12 says goodbye to Missouri and Texas A&M good luck being
mid level teams in the SEC just like you were in the Big 12. West Virginia and Texas
Christian take their place, and I feel the Big 12 is now stronger for the addition of the two
new schools. If you want to know how big these two schools impact on the conference
will be, you can look at the preseason All-Conference team, and the quarterback for the
West Virginia Mountaineers, Geno Smith, is being chosen as the Oensive Player of the
Year. Seven people who voted in the preseason poll have the Neers as the conferencechampions November 17th is going to be fun in Morgantown.
Looking at the body of the conference and how it could shake out, The Sooners are the
clear-cut favorite and should make another trip to a BCS Bowl. Sooner fans can rest on
little nuggets, like the Sooners have never notwon the conference title in back to back
years so after not winning last year, as history goes you can expect the Sooners to
win the Big 12.
Now West Virginia will be a tough challenge for the spot and being that the Sooners
must travel to Morgantown makes it even tougher. If all goes well and both teams
reach that November 17th matchup undefeated it will be a matchup of top ve teams
and what should be front runners for the Heisman in Landry Jones and Smith.
So in my preseason poll I have the Sooners nishing rst and the Neers nishing
second. This is where it gets interesting. A lot of teams are v ying for that third to sixth
or seventh spot. Texas could be that team; the Longhorns have a stout defense coming
back, but again the lack of a leader at quarterback will be a huge question mark for the
Horns and head coach Mack Brown. The Horns running game will be led by Malcolm
Brown and a big oensive line, but will David Ash or Case McCoy be the leader the
Horns need?
TCU comes into the Big 12 with a chip on their shoulder, with people saying they
have not played tough schedules before now. The Horned Frogs respond with beating
Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl and beating Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl. Head Coac
Gary Patterson had a nasty drug incident to deal with in the o-season, but he ha
returning quarterback Casey Pachall back to lead the Frogs oense.
Oklahoma State comes in o its best season EVER but gone are rst-round draftee
quarterback Brandon Weedon and Justin Blackmon. Joseph Randle is a dominate bac
and joined by Jeremy Smith make up the best one-two punch of running backs in th
league. Starting a freshman at QB Wes Lunt will be tricky for coach Mike Gundy, bu
they named Lunt early in spring so he must have what it takes. The defensive side of th
ball is where the Cowboys will be strongest this year with two lock down corner back
in Brodrick Brown and Justin Gilbert. Will this be a return to what we know is Cowbo
football or will this program continue to rise?
The other teams will be ghting to ll in the Big 12 standings. Kansas State will b
led by the poor mans Tim Tebow in Collin Klein but will ten wins be in the cards for th
Wildcats again? In Waco gone is RG 3 and a potent oense. Senior and former starte
Nick Florence looks to lead the Bears and they could surprise some people. Texas Tech
and Iowa State both scored huge upset victories last year but a return to the bottom o
the barrel is likely in the future for them as well as the Kansas Jayhawks.
So this is my prediction of the nal standings in the Big 12 this football season:
1.Oklahoma Sooners
2. West Virginia Mountaineers
3. TCU Horned Frogs
4. Texas Longhorns
5. Oklahoma State Cowboys
6. Kansas State Wildcats
7. Baylor Bears
8. Iowa State Cyclones
9. Texas Tech Red Raiders
10. Kansas Jayhawks
