Interesting idea, really well put together. liked 'through it all the children slept' good line! (Report) Reply
Prabhakar Subramaniam
No grown-up could
Sleep anymore
Those who went
Bravely to bed
Woke up screaming
At what they saw
Said they'd dare not again
Doctors said:
'This is a variant
Of sleeplessness
Which has now
Turned into an epidemic.
More than sleeplessness
It is now a fear of sleep.
However this virus will also die out! '
For those afflicted, it was atrocious
That there could be no
Respite from reality
Some said they saw a ghost*
Of a king with a blood-soaked dagger
Lamenting he had murdered sleep
Those by the sea
Saw a tsunami
Everytime they closed their eyes
The station master
Woke up with a head-on collision
The rich broke
The employee with the pink slip
The student failed in all subjects
The lover with a break-up
The home-owners with foreclosure
The land-owner with squatters
The politician with a frenzied mob
The idolatrous with iconoclasts
Diabetics with low sugar
Models with face scars
Film producers with movie bans
Spendthrifts with huge credit card debt - -
Through it all the children slept
Clinging to whatever was left

This is the first of a series of skirts that I am making for a pattern making course that I am doing at present. This is a simple Pencil skirt with a slight flare at the bottom. It is high waisted with a wide waistband and a split at the back. I found this beautiful and vibrant fabric at a new local shop I found well, not that local but close enough ;)
Cotton, 20cm zipper, 1 large cream button
Me – I can't believe I am making my own patterns!

Collected Wisdom: Longtime Texas coach Darrell Royal
Ol' ugly is better than ol' nothing.
Winning coaches must treat mistakes like copperheads in the bedclothes — avoid them with all the energy you can muster.
The best thing a coach can hope for is to please the majority. And the only way to please the majority is to win.
It got so that I wasn't elated when I won a game, I was just relieved. And if we were defeated, it just took me forever to get over it.
I never changed my attitude toward the coaching part. I would still enjoy that. But I never liked all the controversies. Recruiting was out of hand, there just didn't seem any way to control it. And part of it was that at the time I was protesting the loudest, we weren't winning real big. I thought I sounded like a crybaby. There were just so many problems I didn't seem to be able to do much about.
I'm glad I got out when I did. That's a decision I've never regretted. I wanted out while Edith and I still had some good years left to really enjoy life. I feel fortunate. Now, if only the price of oil would go back up ...

Syrian rebels destroy Shi'ite site, loot churches: HRW
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Rebels in Syria have burned and looted the religious sites of minorities, Human Rights Watch said on Wednesday, as the longest and deadliest of the Arab Spring revolts becomes increasingly sectarian.
The 22-month-old rebellion against President Bashar al-Assad started as a peaceful protest movement but has turned into civil war, pitting mostly Sunni Muslim rebels against a state security and military establishment dominated by Assad's minority Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shi'ite Islam.
In the northern Idlib province, where rebels have taken swathes of territory from government forces, the New York-based rights group said opposition fighters destroyed a Shi'ite "husseiniya" - a religious site devoted to Hussein, a martyr in Shi'ite tradition.
A video published online showed rebels hoisting assault rifles in the air and cheering as the site in the village of Zarzour, taken by rebels in December, burned in the background.
In the video, which Reuters cannot independently verify, one man announces the "destruction of the dens of the Shi'ites and Rafida," a derogatory term used against Shi'ites.
Human Rights Watch said local rebel fighters had blamed Syria's government for the damage but residents said the insurgents had started the fire when they took control of the village.
Regional Sunni power Saudi Arabia and Shi'ite Iran have backed opposing sides in Syria's civil war, raising the prospect the country could become a frontline in a sectarian divide and could suck in neighbouring Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Turkey.
The conflict has killed more than 60,000 people and pushed more than 650,000 to flee the country, the United Nations estimates.
Indiscipline and looting by rebels in some areas has also undermined civilian support for their cause, especially among minority groups, and hampered their ability to advance against government forces.
Foreign backers of the opposition are wary of supporting a revolt in which religious hardliners have grown in prominence.
In the western Latakia province, Human Rights Watch quoted residents as saying gunmen working "in the name of the opposition" had broken into and stolen from Christian churches in two villages.
A resident in Jdeideh, one of the villages, reported that gunmen had broken into the local church, stolen and fired shots inside, after government troops had fled, the rights group said. Local rebels denied they attacked the church, it added.
"While the motivation for the church break-ins may have been theft rather than a religious attack, opposition fighters have a responsibility to protect religious sites in areas under their control from willful damage and theft," Human Rights Watch said.

It appears you are only sending the gameOver actor to your disableTouch method, and if that's the case then it wouldn't have access to your other actors to be able to disable touch on them.
Actors are not added to other actors, so your gameOver actor would actually not have child actors. All actors are added to the stage, so you'd want to iterate through the actors that have been added to the stage. Stage has a getActors method that returns an array of all its actors, which you could iterate through.
To detect the gameOver actor you can name all of your actors with the setName method and then in your iterator loop get the name of each actor and compare it to the name of your gameOver actor.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Flood, election day could coincide
City hopes Assiniboine, Red don't crest together
While it's too soon to write this in stone, it looks as if the Red River could crest in Winnipeg on federal election day.
On Tuesday, U.S. flood forecasters predicted the Red River will crest in Fargo, N.D., Sunday evening or Monday morning.
Flood Fight
The latest news about flooding in southern Manitoba.
Related Items
Since it takes approximately two weeks for the crest to reach Emerson and another week to wind up to Winnipeg, the peak of the 2011 flood appears to be due in the Manitoba capital on or around May 2, when voters go to the polls.
As recently as Monday, the province issued "an educated guess" the Red will crest in Winnipeg between May 6 and 13. An earlier crest has implications beyond the federal election.
On Tuesday, provincial flood forecasters were consulting with their U.S. counterparts to determine the hydrological impact on Manitoba, where the greatest fear involves the Red reaching its peak in Winnipeg at the same time as its largest tributary, the Assiniboine River.
For now, the province continues to predict the Red will crest somewhere between 20 and 23 feet above normal winter ice levels at James Avenue, with an outside chance bad weather could drive up the Red to 24.1 feet. The City of Winnipeg is preparing for the latter scenario, which would require 560 low-lying properties to be protected by sandbag dikes.
With the Red on the rise, owners of 110 of those properties have been advised to build sandbag dikes this week. Most are located in the southern part of the city, where static ice on the Red is affecting river levels.
On Cloutier Drive in St. Norbert, Don and Connie Sullivan returned early from a Florida vacation to ensure their property is ready for the sandbag dike city surveyors have already staked out.
They've scraped all the snow from the side of their house, installed two sump pumps and raised the height of the outlet pipe to ensure it can spill over the dike.
"We wanted to make sure we were ready to go," said Don Sullivan, standing in rubber boots. "I'm very concerned, although I'm not as nervous as I was in 1997."
The city will begin delivering sandbags today and is asking volunteer dike-builders to call 311.
Two kilometres upstream, the Red began spilling over the lip of the Red River Floodway, even though its floodway control structure won't operate for another week or two, when river ice begins moving freely, Manitoba Water Stewardship said.
The Red normally spills into the floodway when the river reaches 18 feet James. The river had only risen to 15.5 feet on Tuesday, but ice at the Courchene Bridge likely allowed the spill to occur.
Closer to the Red's source, the U.S. National Weather Service predicted tributaries upstream from Fargo -- the Bois des Sioux, Wild Rice and Otter Tail rivers -- would soon crest and send flows converging on North Dakota's largest city.
The Red is expected to reach 39.5 feet in Fargo on Sunday evening or Monday morning. The river could crest as high as 41 feet on Monday if it rains in the region over the next five days.
"The higher range value includes precipitation through Sunday. The forecast for the crest will depend on any additional precipitation and will change if it occurs," the weather services said on its website.
The highest crest on record in Fargo was 40.84 feet in 2009, but the city is preparing against a 42-foot crest.
Emergency services co-ordinator Leon Schlafmann said much of Fargo's defences are actually built up even higher, due to initial flood forecasts that were much more dire.
"We can still go back up to the 44-foot mark without a lot of extra planning," he said, referring to additional sandbags that could be placed on temporary dikes.

Supreme Court: A 7-2 high court majority blocks states from displacing the status quo that makes voter fraud easier than credit card fraud. Federal law is helping noncitizens unconstitutionally vote liberals into power.
Unfettered immigration for decades now has been the left's not-so-secret weapon for getting millions of more votes, an obvious recipe for the political transformation of America. The Supreme Court on Monday effectively told the states that the best they can expect are whatever crumbs they beg from the federal government.
Arizona's Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act, passed into law by referendum in 2004, enacted reasonable requirements that proof of citizenship be presented by those registering to vote, and that voters produce a photo ID at the polls.
The law was ruled as conflicting with the 1993 federal Motor Voter law by the notoriously left-leaning 9th Circuit, with which the Supreme Court has now sided. But in Justice Antonin Scalia's ruling, joined by all the court's liberals, he says Arizona may ask the federal government for regulatory versions of some of the law's provisions and "seek judicial review" if denied such requests.
SCOTUSblog.com's Lyle Denniston, who's been covering the Supreme Court for well over a half-century, optimistically says every state can "go to court and argue that it has a constitutional right to make proof of citizenship a binding requirement for all voters."
In the meantime, some advise, let's change the possibly unconstitutional Motor Voter, which makes it all but impossible to prevent election fraud.
That's not likely unless both houses of Congress and the White House are Republican. And even then it's iffy, with Republicans such as Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Marco Rubio of Florida squarely on the other side of the immigration debate.
As Kathy McKee of Protect Arizona Now, which was behind the Arizona referendum, told AP, "You have to prove who you are just to use your charge card now."
But Americans' votes are, somehow, not deemed worthy of the same level of protection from fraud that money is.
It's hard to argue with Justice Clarence Thomas, who with Justice Samuel Alito dissented, when he contends that "the states, not the federal government, have the exclusive right to define" the qualifications of its voters, as explicitly stated in the Constitution.
In the wake of this ruling, exercising that right is going to mean states expensively litigating against what Scalia calls "a complex superstructure of federal regulation atop state voter-registration systems."
Such mazes of federal law — immigration being only one area — make it difficult if not impossible for states to solve their own problems with laws of their own, as this ruling demonstrates.
Some wish to depict Arizona's law as a 21st century version of the Klan physically keeping blacks from voting. That is a slander against the Copper State and others that are simply exercising their constitutional right to make sure only those legally entitled to vote do vote.
Accepting less devalues our system of free governance.

Cal's latest metaphor: the 100 lbs. coat
By Mrs. Tyler Thompson on ©November 23rd, 2014 @ 9:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 1 Response
John Calipari loves himself some metaphors. Tonight, he trotted out his latest to explain what it's like to play at Kentucky: the 100 lbs. coat:
"What these kids deal with to be here, to play here, to be a part of this program, they wear a 100 lbs. coat. What I mean by that is it starts with me. I am rough on them, I am tough on them, I am holding them to a high standard. I am like a hawk, I see everything. I'm coaching them the entire time. They're getting better, it is not an option. You will get better. That's me.
Then they've got this environment we live in here, which is like ridiculous. That's another 20 pounds of the coat. Wait, what about the media? 'They're gonna win 45 straight, they can beat the 76ers, let's vote on it'–what?? Then they've got their own clutter that's around them individually that they have to deal with. That's 100 pounds. The people coming, in the players have windbreakers. They're loose as a goose, they're just gonna go play, if I make shots, if I don't, watch this. Every game we play–and I say this, if you're not willing to wear the 100 lbs. coat, you don't come here. You can't come here because it's not changing. I'm not changing, I don't think our fans are changing. I really don't think the media's changing and the clutter around these kids, it's all the same."
100 lbs. coats, coming soon to The KSR Shop.

Montana State coach says "at times, you feel helpless" playing Kentucky
By Mrs. Tyler Thompson on ©November 23rd, 2014 @ 8:40pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | Leave a response
You had to feel a little bit for Montana State head coach Brian Fish after the game. At the beginning of the game, the crowd actually gave his team a pity cheer when they finally made it across midcourt, a telling sign of their struggles throughout the night. Fish said after the game that John Calipari told him that tonight was the second best game Kentucky's played all season. "He said that's the second best game they played all year. It certainly felt that way. At times, you feel helpless because you don't know which guy to attack," Fish said. "It's McDonald's All-American after McDonald's All-American."
When asked why this was the second best performance by his team all season, Cal pointed to the defensive intensity. "We sustained defensively for the entire time, just like we did against Kansas," Cal said. "Issue is we played the same way on offense, almost the same."
And it's only November.
Cal remembers his daughter's birthday, guys

One of the "Are you serious?!" headlines yesterday was John Calipari messing up his daughter's birthday on Twitter. Because Kentucky is #1 and there was apparently nothing else going on in the world of sports, the story made national headlines. Cal couldn't believe it either, and brought Megan a birthday balloon to the press conference, telling reporters "Just so you know, I know my daughter's birthday."
He said that "Good Morning America" invited him on to talk about messing up Megan's birthday, but later admitted that was a joke, but he'd go on the show if asked.
Only at Kentucky would that make national news.

UK held Montana State to 28 points. 28 freaking points. That's the fewest points allowed by UK in the shot clock era. Phew. This is the same Montana State team that scored 78 points vs. UCLA earlier this season, which should give you a nice preview of what UK's game against the Bruins will be like in a month.
28 points.

Scouting Report: Montana State Bobcats
By BrandonRamsey on ©November 23rd, 2014 @ 5:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 2 Responses
Kentucky Basketball Scouting Report
Opponent: Montana State University Date: 11/23/14
- Hungry, hard-working team still searching for their first victory.
- Multiple perimeter players that can really shoot from 3.
- Pretty experienced group with a splash of young talent.
- Lost to Grand Canyon 61-45.
#22 PG Marcus Colbert: 5'11'' 180 JR.
Colbert is playmaking guard who can really shoot it from beyond the arc. He has had a great career already for the Bobcats and has had a very good start to his junior campaign averaging about 12 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists per game.
#3 G Michael Dison: 5'9'' 160 SR.
He is one of four Bobcats players who are averaging in double-figures so far this season. Dison is obviously small, but makes up for it with his all-around scoring ability. He can play either guard position and is a pesky defender.
#0 G Zach Green: 6'4'' 195 FR.
Green is a true freshman who has started the first four games for the Bobcats, but may have lost his starting spot after the big game Stephan Holm had earlier this week. Green has pretty good size on the perimeter and is a good athlete. Not overly aggressive offensively, more of a slasher and offensive rebounder.
#34 F Danny Robison: 6'8'' 225 JR.
He is a skilled stretch-4 who is leading the Bobcats in scoring through their first 4 games at 12 points per game. He also pulls down a team-leading 5.5 rebounds per game. He can really shoot it from beyond the arc, we must take away his catch-and-shoot 3's.
#2 C Blake Brumwell: 6'7'' 250 SR.
A very physical, but undersized presence on the low block. Brumwell is a very hard worker and uses his strength to bang around down low with taller players. He is averaging around 5 points and 4 rebounds per game.
#1 G Stephan Holm: 6'3'' 175 SO.
Holm is very versatile offensive player who exploded off the bench for 5 3's and 20 points in their last game against Cal State Northridge. He is now averaging just over 12 points per game and has attempted 30 3-pointers in just 4 games.
#24 F Eric Norman: 6'9'' 220 SR.
Norman provides some size and experience off the bench for the Bobcats. He has the skill to play on the perimeter and the size to work down low, but is probably more comfortable outside. He is a good 3-point shooter and offensive rebounder.
#13 F Terrell Brown: 6'4'' 200 JR.
Brown is extremely athletic and can shoot the 3 ball. His athleticism and strength allows him to be a very good rebounder for his size as well.
Keys to the Game
- Dominate the paint. Once again, taking advantage of a huge mismatch in size and athleticism will be crucial for the 'Cats. UK's big men should be able to have their way down low.
- Contest 3-point shots. The Bobcats have a number of guys who can shoot it from the perimeter, and a couple can really get going (Holm, Robison, and Colbert). If we can turn catch-and-shoot 3's into contest 2's it should be an easy victory.
- Strong start. After another slow start against BU, it would be great to see the Wildcats jump out and put Montana State away early. Luckily, in both slow starts so far this season we have gotten everything rolling and still won comfortably. One way or another, tonight's game should be a big win for Kentucky.

Watch Davis' Career-High Game Highlights
By Kory Henry on ©November 23rd, 2014 @ 4:30pm
Posted in Cats in the NBA, Main | Leave a response
We've all heard about it, now let's see it as it happened. Anthony Davis had a phenomenal night against the Utah Jazz, putting up 43 points and 14 rebounds. As we wait for tonight's tip-off, why not check out the highlights of his career performance.
After being the #1 pick in the NBA Draft, we knew he'd become an elite star, but it happened so quickly. As you watch the video, just look at how much better Davis' jump shot has improved. Not only does he dominate in the paint, but his mid-range game has become crazy good for a player his size. Keep it up, big guy!
That slam at 3:36….whew! Can you imagine how good New Orleans will be if they continue to surround him with better players? They'll be unstoppable.

Previewing the Montana State Bobcats
By Wilder Treadway on ©November 23rd, 2014 @ 2:30pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 25 Responses
I could make this post pretty short just by saying: the Bobcats are pretty bad this season. They enter this evening's showdown with the top ranked Wildcats at 0-3 on the season. They have one common opponent with Kentucky: Grand Canyon. UK defeated the Lopes by 40, while the Bobcats lost to GCU by 16 so…I'd say the Cats are expected to win by around 56 today then. MSU has also played UCLA this year, a future UK opponent, and lost 113-78. They were scheduled to play Buffalo this past week, but that game has been postponed because of ya know…the blizzard.
Hailing from Bozeman, Montana, the Bobcats compete in the Big Sky Conference. MSU has made the NCAA Tournament a total of three times, their last appearance coming in 1996 when they lost in the first round to Syracuse. Montana State has a new head coach this year after Brad Huse resigned in the Spring. Brian Fish is in his first year as a head coach following stints as an assistant at Oregon, Creighton, San Diego University, Marshall and TCU.
Despite a winless record, the Bobcats do have three players averaging double-figures in points. Danny Robison, Marcus Colbert and Michael Dison all average at least 10 points a game, and surely one of them will heat up in Rupp because there's always that one visiting player who does. The defense for MSU is what's lacking as the Bobcats are giving up an average of 82 a game. Montana State does have some height to put up against Kentucky in the post with one seven footer freshman, two 6'9 and two 6'8 players, many of whom are lacking experience. Expect to see them in the game regardless though, as Coach Fish will surely be overwhelmed with the monstrous height of the Cats.
Who's your leading scorer for the Cats today? Over/under winning by 30?
Cats in the NFL: Sunday, November 23

Posted in Football, Main | Leave a response
It's another busy day for the former Kentucky Wildcats in the NFL. Let's see what's going on this sports-packed Sunday.
Randall Cobb & Tim Masthay – Green Bay Packers
The Packers hit the road against divisional rival Minnesota this afternoon at 1. The Pack are winners of six of their last seven games and look to continue that against the lowly Vikings. Minnesota also has former Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater leading their team so that hast to give Masthay and Cobb some extra incentive, right?
Avery Williamson & Wesley Woodyard – Tennessee Titans
It's been a tough year for the Titans so far, but individually, former Wildcats Williamson and Woodyard have shined in Nashville. Tennessee travels to Philadelphia this week for a matchup with the Eagles, and with rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger yet to pick up his first win leading the Titans, it could be a long day for the boys in blue.
