The Jayhawks, four-time defending Big 12 champions, have finished either first or second in the Big 12 standings 11 times in 12 years, but have always had trouble in Hilton Coliseum.
Kansas will be back in the home of the Iowa State Cyclones today for a 1 p.m. game as the Jayhawks look to keep pace with sixth-ranked Oklahoma in the Big 12 race.
When it comes to Hilton Coliseum, the Jayhawks have been a 50-50 team. They are 19-18 overall in the building.
"Hilton Coliseum has been a thorn in Kansas' side just like it has a lot of people's sides over time," KU coach Bill Self said. "Certainly, we know we're going to have to play our best road game to date, which isn't saying a whole lot, but we'll have to play our best road game to date to have a chance to have a victory up there."
Iowa State (12-6, 1-2) will look to get back in contention for an upper-division finish with a victory today. The Cyclones have one of the conference's best players in 6-foot-10 sophomore Craig Brackins, who is averaging 18.1 points and 8.8 rebounds a game.
"I think he's playing to his size. I don't know the exact stats, but I think he's third in the league in scoring and he's up there in rebounding too," Self said. "He's been a presence. I think he's gone from being a very skilled big guy to a guy that can score on the block too.
"He's probably taken less threes than he did last year. To me, that would be something that I would say has impressed me. He's matured into a more all-around, physical presence."
The Jayhawks got a big game off the bench from junior college transfer Mario Little against Texas A&M. Little made all six shots he attempts and finished with 15 points in just 14 minutes.
In Little's previous five games, he had scored 11 total points.
"It probably relieves some pressure from our entire team now that we have another piece that we can put in there," Self said. "And obviously, if he's playing well, he can help us win games and make us better, so I think it helps the whole team out."

CHALLENGE – F30 335 / 328 Product Development Begins!
Over the weekend we started to tear into our F30 335i sport to see what improvements we can make to the cars power train and other mechanical systems. Naturally, we got her up on a lift so we can give the car a good look over to see what stands out as needing improvement over the stock equipment. We plan on offering a full line of performance and cosmetic enhancements for both the F30 335 and 328i models, with some parts crossing over between the 2 models. F30 M sport and M3 parts will of course follow once the car is released. We took a handful of photos so you guys can see what your new car looks like and have a reference to what we'll be developing moving forward.Exhaust and Down Pipe ( Cat )The factory exhaust is actually already a full 3inch unit minus a few small areas where its pinched down a bit here and there. The main restriction point is the rear canister it would seem. The valve system on the canister also help keep it on the quiet side and restricts flow for most of the low to mid RPM range. New on the F30 is the valve system, is now electronic. The previous was a vacuum based system. A bottle style resonator is also used in the mid pipe for keeping sound in check

Ep167: The International Language
There's no way Denis Villeneuve could have predicted that his new film would open in the aftermath of one of the greatest upsets in American political history. But Arrival comes to us with a message we need to hear at a time we need it most. Today's episode, which was recorded on election eve, but which features a bit of post-results commentary in the intro, dives deep into a film that is ostensibly about alien visitation, but which cuts to the heart of our fundamental need for empathy. Ian and David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel unpack all the heady twists and turns in this decidedly spoilerific conversation.
Also, Ian shares some news about Raising Bertie; a unique version of Mad Max: Fury Road; as well as a final reminder to get thee to the Music Box Theatre for tonight's 50th anniversary screening of Manos: The Hands of Fate. This special evening will feature a Q&A with star Jackey Neyman Jones, Laura Mazzuca Toops (co-author of Growing Up with Manos: The Hands of Fate), and other special guests! And don't forget: Jackey and Laura will appear at Bucket O' Blood Books and Records on Sunday to meet fans and sign copies of their incredible behind-the-scenes book!
Episode 167 has a little time for despair, but no time for intolerance or inaction!

The drive from San Francisco to Death Valley is long as all hell, especially if you start the 12-hour drive at 11:30pm. We reached the Valley of Death at sunset the next day.
Here's where we slept the first night, when we pulled over at 6am so tired both of us were in pain. We parked under the amazing array of power-generating windmills on top of the hill behind Red. In the breezy morning we could hear the power lines crackling.
After all that driving and sleeping and windmill chasing we made the final turn from the highway to begin the 50 miles of dirt roads that were the final approach, and we were greeted by a vague "Road Closed" sign in the middle of the road, laughing at us for not researching road conditions. We did the only logical thing:
we drove around it without even slowing down. "Did you see something?" "No, I didn't see anything." So we kept an extra eye on the road for any exotic Death Valley obstacles that might come our way. But horah horah, none did.
On the other side it didn't say nothin'
I love Red!!!
you didn't stop to get a picture of the sign you flagrantly violated? shame on you.
Ho Ho Ho
sure that wasn't just yer neurons crackling?
uhh, power lines bad, um-kay
EMF Brain Massage
I'm a little confused. You have the arrival picture appearing before the picture of the morning-before-the-arrival picture. Perhaps driving to Death Valley is some weird time warp thing. Perhaps I was just too tired to notice that we got there and then drove back to the windmills and then back to DV. Thanks for the great Shiekafied directions that took us down to Mexico, over to Utah and then back up to Death Valley (which was only about 150 crow flying miles east of our starting point) -Red one
Back when my art car sported tags from the state of misery, more than once I've
gotten by with a warning instead of a ticket for being in an area beyond such
signs as ROAD CLOSED or NO VEHICLES BEYOND THIS POINT due to miserys little ditty
"the show me state". Various LEOs have asked me to accompany them to the sign
I missed, they point to it and say, "There, I've showed you." To which I reply,
Ohhh, how could I have missed that? Then I'm told not to let it happen again,
and off they go. Strange universe.
You MUST go to
Darwin (a very
strange town)
when next visiting the Death Valley area...it's a
must for all
i love ekt.
booldy idiots
rock on sammy sosa
We pulled into camp, which for this year's Thanksgiving festivities
consisted of about 20 souls including the two turkeys, and we sat
by the fire and I opened a bottle of gin and performed a little
experiment on myself to determine if gin drinkers are in fact the
worst drunks.
"Gin, makes a man mean"
"So drink up and riot"
So are they? And who are the best drunks? Do they get awards?
wrybread was very verbose around the campfire this night. In fact, I've never seen him talk so much. That is my scientific data set from the gin experiment. -Red
but did he break a bottle over anybody's head?
most people
with cirrhosis
of the liver
were gin drinkers
ah shit!
Fuck you all you lebian bitches
well duh another blair witch shit
you must have
fUCK YOU
yes, we are the worst drunks...gin n lee

hahahha that looks koo
I was at least making a most loquacious drunk, and in the distance the 730-foot Eureka sand dunes loomed in the moonlight. So when people around the fire started snoring (probably my fault), we figured it was time to mount our assault.
We'd never seen the dunes by day, they were just a few massive
moonlit white hulks in the distance. So we started the trudge with
the moon lighting our way reflecting brightly off the white sand.
The sand is fine and clean as white pepper, and after you rub it
over yourself there's no residue at all, no dust or dirt or anything.
And the wind has whipped this fine light sand into a series of steep
faces cresting in a network of knife-edge ridges, with almost no
flats at all. So we were trudging and trudging for hours, and when
I threw the water bottle to Red
my aim was a little off, and we listened to the gallon jug slide
down the dune into the dark oblivion, never hearing it stop.
Oh well, water in the desert is overrated. After reaching what must have been the fifth false summit we found a nice flat spot which would have been a perfect home except that there were already a few tents there. We did the
only thing we could after walking up a monstrous sand dune by moonlight
and happening upon an encampment: we harassed them. We banged
on the sand and made animal noises until someone in one of the tents
asked "Are we being fucked with?" And when we responded
with a few moos and baaaas he said conclusively, "Yes, we're being fucked with."
He came out and shooed us away like we were a couple of raccoons, paying no attention to the fact that we were clearly cows at that point, and we made our daring escape by sliding down the midnight sanddune, then continued the trudge I mean climb.
red flannel long-johns in the dessert?
ahem. that's a jumpsuit.
when we were kids and our parents would take us to death valley for weeks at a time, they always told us that the dunes at night were rife with rattle snakes....i think they were lying.
Oops... leave no trace, people. Don't throw it if you don't know it.
(fear not, the waterbottle was recovered)
That "jumpsuit" looks like it could jump by itself, alright.
I have a bruise on my back from where the waterjub hit me before it went careening down into oblivion. Being on a mountain of sand in a dry desert at high altitude with no eater is extrememly refreshing.
I'll bet is was awful cold on all that snow!
The sun shown so hard I froze to death.
do you have no respect for the environment
You bastards! Shame! Giving us the Blair Witch treatment like that!
this is dumb
the eureka dunes are way cool!!!! best desert getaway in the whole wide freakn world....gin n lee

Taipei, Nov. 2 (CNA) Premier Lai Ching-te has directed government agencies to strengthen efforts to build ties with New Southbound Policy target countries, including by helping small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) build presences in those markets.
Lai issued the directive Thursday during a cross-agency review meeting on the New Southbound Policy, the Office of Trade Negotiations (OTN) under the Executive Yuan said in a statement Friday.
The policy, initiated by President Tsai Ing-wen when she assumed office in May 2016, is aimed at bolstering Taiwan's relations with countries in Southeast Asia, South Asia, Australia and New Zealand and limiting Taiwan's economic dependence on China.
Lai urged the agencies to focus on helping countries in those regions develop agriculture, public health, and information and telecommunication capabilities and help them train business and medical talent.
Given the results racked up under the policy, countries such as the United States and Japan have indicated they are willing to team up with Taiwan in related fields, which could serve as a cooperation platform to jointly develop partnerships with countries targeted by the New Southbound Policy, he said.
Lai urged the Ministry of Economic Affairs to help willing Taiwanese SMEs move into those countries, especially those caught in the crossfire of the United States-China trade dispute, including by relocating them in clusters to industrial zones developed by Taiwan-based enterprises in those markets.
In terms of education, talent training is key to mutually beneficial relations, the premier said, and he asked the Ministry of Education to develop programs focused on sharpening the learning and language skills of students from those countries so that they can blend into Taiwanese society.
In agriculture, Lai instructed the Council of Agriculture to continue collaboration with Indonesia and other countries after Taiwan and Indonesia signed a cooperation pact on building a comprehensive agriculture exhibition area in that country in June.
Amid warming relations, trade, tourism and student exchanges between Taiwan and New Southbound Policy target countries
have all been on the rise in the past two years.

Chance the Rapper
Despite growing up in South Side Chicago, Chance the Rapper's music is tonally different from the Trap and Drill typical of that poor, crime-ridden neighbourhood. Though Chance is very much a rap artist, his songs are soul-influenced and uplifting, with strong horn sections and upbeat danceable rhythms. Lyrically, he's on point, and arguably has one of the best flows of any current rapper. His tone and rhyme schemes vary significantly between each song, and he has a very versatile voice both live and on record. In that sense he's the real deal. His backing band – the Social Experiment – give his show a more authentic quality.
At Squamish, Chance came onstage by shuffling across it like a Looney Tunes character and dove right into his first song.
"Hi," he said after a few songs. "I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Chance the Rapper."
The crowd went crazy.
It was encouraging to see a crowd get so hyped by an artist like Chance: compared to the violent and misogynistic lyrics of many rappers, Chance's narrative style and relatively tame subjects could be dismissed as vanilla. Despite his fairly small discography (just two mixtapes: #10 Day & Acid Rap), Chance has emerged as a promising up-and-coming rapper, with a live show that no rap fan should miss.
If you don't know who Toronto-born Kevin Brereton is, you are not a true Canadian (he even played at the opening ceremonies for our 2010 Olympics.) Since his first album Exit, featuring hits like "Heaven Only Knows" and "Superstarr pt.1", k-os has arguably been the most prominent and inventive figure in Canadian hip hop. A contemporary of Canadian groups like the Rascalz and Ghetto Concept, k-os has defined Canadian hip hop and has, for a decade now, consistently released genre-bending records with conscious, inspiring lyrics about navigating the music scene in Toronto ("Crabuckit"), internal growth and salvation ("the Love Song" and "Man I Used to Be"), and the failings of the hip hop industry ("Neutroniks" and "Emcee Murdah").
"What's the definition of a real M.C.?" raps k-os on "Neutroniks", "is it lookin hard on MTV / or freestyling in a backstreet alley?"
On top of that, while existing mostly in the hip hop and folk oeuvre with his first two albums (Exit and Joyful Rebellion), and adding rock and pop influences to his works with his last three (Atlantis Hymns for Disco, Yes! and Black on Blonde), his music remains soulful and innovative.
His style and presence on stage are representations of his musical prowess, and he does not hesitate to change things up and improvise as other, larger acts may be resigned from doing. With a break-dancer backing him as well, and an excellent DJ scratching for him, it was the most quintessentially hip hop show of the festival. Most quintessential being a freestyle that replaced the second verse on "Heaven Only Knows", in which he took a shot at co-writers in hip hop. Whether or not he was throwing shade at Drake, a previous collaborator (check out their track "Faith"), it only makes sense that a musician of his calibre would be justified in being a spokesperson for authenticity; he is an artist who can rap over "Stairway to Heaven" and beat box at the same show.
Starting with "Elektrik Heat – the Seekwill", he played songs mostly off his first three records, and gave the people what they wanted by performing hits like "Sunday Morning" and "I wish I knew Natalie Portman". Having been centrefold in Canada's music scene for over a decade, and being set to release his sixth studio album Can't Fly Without Gravity late this summer, it is safe to say that k-os isn't going anywhere.
A$AP Rocky
With the release of the "Peso" video in 2011, A$AP and the mob were elevated into popular culture. After that it only took the release of a mixtape and a studio album to secure a spot in the top stratum of rap. Hailing from Harlem, Rakim Mayers rose to fame championing a southern-influenced, trippy style of hip hop based around swag, vibrato and sex appeal. In terms of swag rap though, A$AP does it best, and his concert was exactly the kind of shit show, filled with the braggadocio, egotism and bad behaviour that pretty Flacko is known for.
For at least two or three minutes near the end of the set, he pointed at different topless women in the crowd and yelled "Titties!"
The set started with the debut track ("Holy Ghost") off his sophomore album At Long Last A$AP, an anthemic track with a choir on the chorus, and a psychedelic rock lick that exemplifies the new sounds of his latest album. Despite being the epitome of derogatory and superficial rap, A$AP, with his music and style, promotes, on occasion, something deeper than that. This show, however, was about getting hyped and fucked up. On three separate occasions A$SAP, A$AP Twelvy and A$AP Nast, didn't even perform their own music, and just vibed and got hyped to House of Pain's "Jump Around", Naughty By Nature's "OPP", and even Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", supposedly to cater to their predominantly white audience.
In a sense it is not surprising that they'd take a festival spot at Squamish without much seriousness. It's probably strange to come up from a majority black urban environment, and enter into a life of festival touring in which millions of suburban white kids in tank tops and snapbacks are rapping along to every one of your lyrics. In that context, it is no wonder that the show ended up being a hot, sweaty mess, with crowd-surfers crumbling into mosh-pits and people losing their shit. To blame was probably the succession of bangers he played that sent the crowd into frenzy. From "Goldie", 'M's", to his hit with Skrillex "Wild4theNight", it may not have been the most tasteful show, but it still got rowdy as hell. He was, however, always in the shadow of Drake, who he probably shares similar stature within the States (check out their collaborative effort with Jay-Z called "Light It Up"). In Canada however, it was clear that most of the crowd members were there in anticipation of Drake, who was to play an hour after A$AP. Even A$AP payed homage to the 6 GOD in saying,
"I just want to party with y'all before Drake comes and kills it."
Since the release of So Far Gone in 2009, Toronto-born Aubrey Graham has graced the zenith of both the Canadian and American music charts. He is an international sensation with numerous billboard accolades and collaborations with the likes of Jay-Z, Kanye West, Rihanna, etc… Signed to Young Money Entertainment in 2009, Drake began as the prodigy of New Orleans rapper Lil Wayne and thus began, with each release, his monopoly on the pop-music industry.
By now he's a Canadian legend, and it was clear that at least half the festival goers had made the trip especially to see the 6 God in the flesh. Many of them were even sporting handmade apparel and carrying Fuck Meek Mill signs. By the time Drake started, an expansive hoard had swarmed the stage, and security was even pouring water into the mouths of the more parched audience members, who had been waiting expectantly for over an hour, and had become dehydrated from whatever substance was replacing the water in their water bottle.
The show started fittingly with "Legend", the title track off his latest mix-tape If You're Reading This It's Too Late.
Besides a drummer, it was just Drake on stage, and you could tell through the many smiles and warm sentiments towards B.C. that he was having a good time. He even threw B.C. into many of the songs he performed.
After "Legend" he just kept playing banger after banger, of which there are many between his mix-tapes and three studio albums. Those notable being "Headlines", "Trophies", "Started from the Bottom", "0 to 100" and "The Motto", in which he coined the signature phrase of a generation: "You already know though / you only live once / that's the motto n—- YOLO".
The craziest people went was during "Know Yourself", when the stage went completely dark, until out of the darkness you heard "running through the six with my woes" and an intense flash of light illuminated the entire crowd to reveal pyrotechnics and fireworks.
Throughout the entire concert people were intermittently chanting "Fuck Meek Mill" between songs, and Drake seemed definitely thankful for that. He even performed his most recent diss tracks towards Meek Mill, back to back and charged up, which everyone knew all the lyrics to despite being released only two weeks ago.
"I think this could be one of the best shows I've ever performed" he said after an especially impressed look towards the audience. He was then met with riotous applause. I am only thankful that he didn't ask the girls to remove their tops because it's hard to imagine that anyone wouldn't have done so.

As minor update iOS 9.3.2 to fix the error, among other things. but It ensures apparently once again for a new: Some owners of a 9.7-inch iPad Pro report that their device can no longer be used after installation.
Apple makes all its OS updates now a few weeks before the public by developers and even by "normal users" test. And yet it is often the case that the final update but then some users lead to problems – partly to serious even. This happened again now in iOS 9.3.2.
Some owners of a 9.7-inch iPad Pro – the larger version and other devices do not seem to be affected – complain about an "error 56", which causes the device prompts them the restore iOS on iTunes.
This, however, is not enough: The restore via iTunes does not work for the person concerned of. In other words, the installation of iOS 9.3.2 goes wrong, and they can no longer even be undone.
It is obviously not possible to restart the installation of iOS 9.3.2. The parties to regulate their device so at least for now no longer use.
Probably Apple will quickly provide a further update Remedy. For those concerned, which may have even bought their new iPad only in the last few weeks, the problem is especially annoying.

Cave Creek: Refuge for Desert Fish
Their presence testifies to the incredible nature of the Sonoran Desert
When most people think of Arizona or the Sonoran Desert they do not think about fish. Or if they do they think about the many species of game fish such as large mouth bass and rainbow trout that can be found in the several reservoirs that store water for agricultural and municipal uses. When informed that Arizona was home to at least 35 species (34 species are extant) of native fish, most of which lived in desert streams such as the Agua Fria, Colorado, Gila, Salt, San Pedro, Santa Cruz and Verde Rivers and their many tributaries, people are usually impressed and often want to know more about them.
Cave Creek, the tributary of the Salt River that provides the name for a community in Maricopa County, currently has at least four species of native fish that are adapted to the conditions common to desert rivers and streams.
To survive in a desert stream like Cave Creek fish have to be able to endure periods of low water levels and times when flood conditions prevail. When water levels are low water is often restricted to isolated pools and springs. Under these circumstances conditions can be extreme. Predation pressure can be higher because of relative scarcity of aquatic habitat, packing prey and predator closer together and increasing concentrations of animal waste products, adversely affecting water chemistry. Bass and sunfish are voracious and effective predators.
Floods can displace fish downstream and significantly alter the streambed, modifying microhabitat. Fish native to desert streams are adapted to this environment and can cope and even thrive.
In the latter half of the 19th century Americans decided to make Arizona and other western states a little more like home in the East. They introduced to many western rivers and streams a number of fish native to Europe and the Mississippi River drainage. Believing they were improving the fishery they unknowingly contributed to the decline of native fish. Rivers and streams were diverted and impounded for agriculture and hydropower, the range was overgrazed and watersheds were altered. These combined changes put a real strain on native fish.
Presently Cave Creek has two species of native fish as well as six exotic species. Longfin dace (Agosia chrysogaster) and speckled dace (Rhinichthys osculus) are still common throughout their original ranges except that populations of these fish are more disjunctive and isolated than before. These fish feed on detritus, aquatic invertebrates and algae. Longfin dace can survive relatively high temperatures and low-quantity and low-quality water. They have been found in moist algal mats where there was not enough water to swim. Ammonia concentrations from their body wastes were at levels toxic to most species.
Gila chub were present in Cave Creek until 1978. They were first recorded in 1950 in Cave Creek in the vicinity of the Desert Foothills Land Trust's Jewel of the Creek Preserve and Spur Cross Ranch Conservation area. This fish was last observed in Cave Creek in 1978 near Seven Springs.
Why does it matter that native fish live in Cave Creek or any body of water? What good are they anyway?
Fish as well as any organism have a niche or function in an ecosystem that fits like a piece of a puzzle. Each species performs a role that complements other species in that system. Removing a species leaves a hole that impacts other species. In most cases the ecosystem is resilient enough to cope, or we perceive that the system is coping with one or more missing pieces, but there comes a time when the system can no longer support itself and it crashes. Ecosystem crashes are fairly common. One excellent example of this is taken from Yellowstone National Park. During the early part of the last century wolves were extirpated from the park; no one realized that the Lamar River would become degraded during the next 69 years as a result of this effort. What happened is this: the elk population in the Yellowstone area increased significantly because of less predation; the greater number of elk ate more plant material, so much so that most, in some cases all, of the streamside vegetation such as willow and nearby aspen trees failed to regenerate. With the loss of the streamside vegetation the stream banks became unstable and eroded, causing the silt load in the stream to increase, the streambed to straighten and in many cases lead to an incised (deeper) streambed.
When wolves were reintroduced in 1995 a more natural predator-prey relationship was re-established between wolves and elk. The numbers of elk decreased, thereby reducing feeding pressure on the vegetation. After a few years the willow and aspen started regenerating and the streambed now is approaching a healthier state. Who would have thought that wolves played a role in stream ecology?
The role native desert fish play in the ecology of the Cave Creek watershed is uncertain. They are part of the food chain and their presence certainly does add a bit of interest to the flora and fauna of the region. Their mere survival in an area famous for hot dry conditions testifies to the incredible nature of the Sonoran Desert. For this reason alone these desert fish should be allowed to thrive in our desert streams.

Title: Broadchuch: Sins Of The Father
Date of commencement: September 22 2013
Date of completion: December 24 2014
Series: Broadchurch, a sequel to the original, and following on from Life Without Joe
Rating: M
Authors: tkel_paris and tardis_mole
Summary: Two years after Danny's death, life is slowly getting back to normal in Broadchurch. But Hardy's happy life is about to be turned upside down by a spectre from the past he had hoped had been laid to rest. Someone from his past wants to talk to him, someone wants revenge, someone wants to see him ruined. But it's not one 'someone'. But first, he must face the girl in his garden.
Disclaimer: We own nothing, but this is based on Broachurch by Chris Chibnal, with added clues from the novel by Erin Kelly. We gain no financial benefit nor gratuities, only the enjoyment from writing and working together on this epic journey, shared for the enjoyment of others.
Dedication: Chris Chibnal, long time friend. bas_math_girl, for her beta. And each other for hopefully not ruining each other's lives for too long during the writing part.
Warning: If you have not watched Broadchurch in its entirety, do not read this. We mean it. You will be spoiled. Stop and go back. Now. Ideally you have seen the entire show, not just what was aired on BBC America if you live on that side of the pond, but this is understandable in either case. Also, if you have not read tardis_mole's Life Without Joe, that's okay. It's possible to read this without reading that, if you're not on Moley's approved list. You'll probably find this makes a little more sense if you have read it, but you should be fine without it. Take the time to read Erin Kelly's novelization, if you can, as it provided certain details that helped with writing this. Though you won't need to rely on it.
Authors' Notes: See Episode One, Part One. They're a bit long to include in each post.
Episode One, Part Six: Return of the Psychic
Hardy forced himself to walk evenly, holding in the torrent of feelings about what had just happened. Taken off the case because of, what? Because his son had found a body in their driveway? Why was Ellie still on the case? Did they suspect him of murder?
Okay, it was his daughter in one of the photos the Super had pinned up, which meant Daisy knew the victim at one point. But he could not remember her. How could he remember all of his daughter's friends? He was pretty certain he could only name a few of the ones she spent the most time with before the last time he saw her. And five years was a long time to a father who missed his child.
It did not matter how many children he had to care for. He loved Tom, Fred, Harry, and Catherine. But there would be a hole in his heart until he could see his daughter again. Would she want to see him once she was of age? Why hadn't she returned any of his calls? Tess had not been blocking them from connecting, had she?
"DI Hardy?"
He closed his eyes. One of the last voices he wanted to hear right now. He turned slowly to face him.
"Connelly. This is a bad time."
The man was trembling, and to Hardy's keen eye looked like he had been sweating. Nervous sweating.
"Sir, I said I don't wish for these, but they come to me. And I'm sorry, but believe me, this is urgent."
Hardy rubbed his eyes. He had given Connelly no credence at first when he burst onto the scene – in a manner of speaking – of Danny Latimer's case, but he had known details about Sandbrook that there was no way anyone who had never read the case or worked on it could have known. And yet he had been right about key details of Danny's murder as well, for which he had had an alibi and so could not have been the killer. Even down to the thought that it would hurt the community – particularly Beth – more once the truth came out. So he had to be listened to, which Hardy had only done when he was getting desperate to find the killer before his heart gave out.
That had been a close call. Much longer and the doctors were certain that he would not have survived the pressure.
Still, it was not something he wished to deal with, especially not now. And yet he was trying to be more patient. Sighing, Hardy lowered his hand and met Connelly's gaze. "What?"
Connelly looked around a moment, and then lowered his voice. "It's about a girl. I saw her lying on the ground, dead. She was murdered. Was she found this morning?"
"A girl was found this morning; murder hasn't been confirmed at this stage." Even if he had got key details right, Hardy was taking no chances of giving anything away. It was simply police procedure: never give away every detail, always hold at least some details back to weed out the nutters from those who actually had useful information to provide.
Or for being certain that the person who confessed was in fact the perpetrator. He had over the years met some who would confess merely for the attention.
It was interesting how their psychology worked, but Hardy was more interested in sending those nutters off and working on finding the real criminals. He knew which category Connelly came into, even if he did have the odd useful insight.
Connelly took that as enough encouragement to continue, which he did in a hurry. "Well, I saw part of a locket near her, under the hedge where she was found."
That got Hardy's attention. No one had said a word to him about a locket, but her body had definitely been dumped under a hedge. No chance that detail had been slipped to the press yet. Near as he knew, not one word had been said to the press. And given the semi-remote nature of their home he doubted anyone had found out by merely passing by. So, no chance of a Twitter report before they had even located the family.
"But that wasn't all I saw. I kept seeing a kale leaf, a fresh but very torn one, so it must be important somehow."
Hardy frowned. Those did not grow in Ellie's garden. If anything, they grew closer to the beach. He wondered if that would be a relevant detail, if SOCO had found any on the girl's body. But it always possible that some were accidentally dragged from the beach to where she was killed. Or that she was killed by one of the beaches.
"I think she was near one when she died, or near a kale plant. And she had photos on her. One of her and another girl. They're connected by a promise. The other is of girls she never knew. But the two are linked. All the way back to Sandbrook. Don't dismiss anything or divide it up. It's all connected, like a Celtic Knot."
Connelly paused to see how the information was being taken, but he could get no reading off of the DI. The man was too good at hiding his real feelings. But he was not done. There was still more.
"This murder, this one is going to shake the town worse than Danny's did. And it's not going to be the only one. It's too late to stop the second, but you can and need to act to stop the third. If you don't, there will be a fourth."
Hardy stiffened. Fourth? There had only been one murder. Why was Connelly talking as if there had been a second? "I'm not investigating this murder. DS Miller is."
Connelly's eyes widened. "No, you have to be on the case. You may be the only one who can stop the killers."
"Connelly, I don't have time for this. You know too much. And you're implying that another murder has already happened. I have to place you under arrest as a suspect."
He raised his voice for the last part to draw the attention of nearby officers as he pulled out the cuffs, and began to read his rights.
Connolly spluttered in shock. "I told you, I don't wish for these visions!"
"It's not my call. You'll be answering Miller's questions as soon as she has a moment." He clicked the cuffs into place. "She's the lead investigator. Tucker," he called out to one of the passing officers,
"See this man gets questioned by Miller. He knows too much about the case."
The psychic moaned and hung his head. "Here we go again," he whispered.
Hardy pretended he did not hear.

I would have touched many areas in my 4 months of blogging. But not sports. You would know the reason if you have seen me already. Sports and ME would sound more like an Oxymoron. So, here's outsourcing.
Madhav Dasika, is a Team Leader in my office, and a very good friend of mine. He had this different perspective about Idol Worship. The religion, where he thinks this superstition is followed, is called Cricket. Wow, i smell controversial opinions already.
Here's Madhav and his log.
"The Profile of the most admired batsman!!
This is a person who has got maximum number of centuries and still consumes more than 6 overs to reach from 90 to 100. No gifts for guessing.
The most proclaimed and world renowned Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar. Very often the saying goes says that we are loosing the matches because we dont have Tendulkar in the side. He is in the news almost all the papers from the day he has an elbow injury till the day he palyed a trophy in Hyderabad.
I saw a program on one of the channels in where the spectators were yelling 'Tendulkar has disappointed us today'. That was the day on which I started wondering when did Tendulkar not disappoint us (if not a surprise atleast). Any big league, it will be potrayed as the star bowler of the opponent team vs Tendulakar. So far I have never seen Tendulkar going against the odds and trying to overcome the *star bowler* of the opposite team except for Henry Olongo of Zimbabwe (and Shoab Akthar of Pakistan in the World Cup)
He is compared to Sir Don Bradman and he is compared to Sunil Gavaskar. I somehow do not understand whether these people also stood more for individual records than a match winning performance. We have seen Dravid playing the wall role, Kaif/Yuvraj/Ganguly and sometimes Agarkar winning the matches for us. But so far I have not seen Tendulkar contributing more than 30-40 runs in any crucial innings (be it be one day or a test match) except for two matches against Australia in which he was a Captain."

Not-For-Profit organizations using RCM strategies and applications can achieve far greater levels of donor success than those relying solely on internal contact management databases. Relationship Capital Management analysis allows you to bring a much wider pool of donors and contacts to bear on your fundraising objectives. Consider how often key indirect points of contact and influencers turn out to be from outside your core affinity group of supporters and targets. Using BoardEx allows you to identify and engage these seemingly unaffiliated people and organizations in your efforts and secure new and higher levels of donor support.
Leading universities, charitable organizations and trusts use the BoardEx global leadership database and proprietary analysis for development activities. BoardEx services include biographical and relationship information on the world's top business leaders. Collectively these individuals have identifiable and measurable connections through over 150 million current and historical organizational overlaps. Client alumni teams often use BoardEx to track prominent alumni to improve ongoing contact and develop related donor leads. Combining BoardEx information with your own relationship knowledge allows you to find previously unknown contact opportunities and more productive avenues to pursue your financial and development goals.
Academic Research Teams use BoardEx extensively for human behavior and performance projects. As the gold standard for biographical data on the world's most important business leaders, research teams can be assured their analysis will not be compromised by inaccurate or out of date information. Projects ranging from behavioral science, executive performance, corporate capabilities and group dynamics are underway at leading universities around the world, all using BoardEx data and analytics. The results of these projects are published in journals and articles and referenced throughout the academic community.

Question for my fellow Jeepers-- I have a 46' 2A with a stock 5:38 rear end-- I would like to achieve a little more top end (above 35 mph) so I can at least drive it in town. Has anyone changed the ring & pinion gears (rear & front) on their 2A's to a lower ratio (eg: 4:18....3.20....etc)?
I have read other posts from folks who have insalled an overdrive unit, but I don't want an additional gear shift and want to keep the appearance status quo.
Thanks everyone--

Ian MacAlpine
Ian MacAlpine is a multimedia journalist and photo/video coordinator for the Kingston Whig-Standard. He started photography as a hobby as most people probably did. When he was younger, he liked going to Montreal Canadiens games so he would buy a ticket and take pictures with my camera and telephoto lens. While working as an office clerk at CP Rail in Montreal he had a contact at work that was friends with a writer with The Hockey News. When Ian met the writer, he was given a photo pass for the Canadiens games at the Montreal Forum. With the photo pass, he was then able to produce photos for The Hockey News and get published. At the games all the photographers hung out together in a common room. There he met some great guys who showed me the ropes on how to be a local freelancer. Ian was in photography school at the time (1978) and it was great to learn to be a photojournalist and get paid at the same time. During a very busy time in Montreal (early 1980's) he was able to build up a respectable portfolio.

About this blog space
This blog space is a place for me to primarily put all my wool gatherings, adventures, experiments. I am now a mum of two astounding daughters, and I used to be a DIY musician and co-ran a tiny independent label (Slampt), so this punk can-do attitude plus feminist analysis and Art school experience somehow informs my wool work! I am also deeply moved by GREEN, trees, weather, colour combinations in nature, and texture. I aim to source wool from round the corner or at the very least UK grown and processed, and to create no toxic waste. This means I get to see sheep as often as I can, sometimes at wool fests.

my 40th Exhibition: a blurry video, including yarn, artwork, knitting etc.....
this video was taken on Marc's phone, so is not of the highest quality! But it is the only document of the "exhibition" I had at home for my 40th birthday, of some things I've made in my 40 years. Including Slampt artwork (the record label I used to co-run), other prints and paintings, some plant dyed wool tops, and many yarns I've handspun.

Great idea, I love the hand spun knitted jumper, very cool indeed and the felted jerkin is impressive, I bet that was hard work to make....ReplyDelete
Thanks!I hurt my back making the "jerkin" it was all done in a day at a workshop, and I also came down with flu afterwards! I've stuck to smaller pieces recently!ReplyDelete

This instructable will teach you how to transform drinking straws into beads that can be used for any project.
Step 1: Materials
Pretty simple: you just need the straws themselves, scissors to cut the straws, and also a long thin tool (a pen works fine)
Step 2: Cut the Straws
you can cut them to many different lengths, but I chose to cut them into one inch segments
Step 3: Fold in the Edges
this is when you may need to use a pen to assist you
Fold in part of each edge to create a triangle shape
Step 4: Alternate Ideas
you could strategically place the triangles to create a diamond, a trapezoid, or a three dimensional shape
Step 5: Use Your Beads!
be creative! i tried to make a bracelet

Cute beads and great photography :D
This is a great idea!

Welcome to the St. Isaac Jogues Religious Education Program
The goal of our program, in a collaborative effort with you, is to help foster each student's growth in personal holiness through his relationship with God. We thank you for allowing us to work with you in the formation of your child's faith. Our Religious Education Program includes the participation of our Clergy and approximately forty Catechists and Aides, all volunteers, dedicated to advancing the spiritual, intellectual, emotional and social development of our children.
Included in this section is information relating to our program. We would be pleased to speak with you and answer any questions you may have.
God bless you!
Louis M. Valenti, M. Div.
Director of Religious Education, St. Isaac Jogues Parish

Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in.-C.S. Lewis
Religious Education Philosophy
The religious educational program strives to prepare children to assume their rightful place in society through personal sanctification based on Christian values. This program fosters the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, and social development of each child. The religious education program of St. Isaac Jogues Parish is obligated to contribute in its own way to the realization of the three-fold purpose within the total educational ministry: proclaim the Gospel message, develop a faith community, and render service to the People of God.
Our religious educational program proclaims the Gospel message and translates this proclamation into action. This Catholic message is transmitted through volunteer teachers who strive to follow the example of Christ, the Master Teacher.
It is our aim to provide experiences through active participation in liturgy and prayer that will develop children who are wise in their faith and committed to service both to their faith and social communities. The child celebrates his/her relationship with God and with the community through the sacramental life of the Church. Parents, as well as volunteer teachers, are involved in preparing the children for the sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist, and Confirmation. These celebrations bind us all together as a faith community.
The purpose of the Religious Education Program here at St. Isaac Jogues Parish is to provide children with an environment that will foster growth and participation in the teaching and practices of Jesus Christ.

- discussion with the group about expectations and responses to previous sessions;
- warm up (physical with occasional vocal)
- exercises chosen to stimulate the senses, provoke thought and provide building blocks for the rest of the session;
- performances; and
- structured feedback relating to the performances.
It is also important to note that feedback took place after each exercise also and forms one of the major learning and group cohesion tools when working in this way.
Also the final two session in the series were quite distinctive and were structured differently.
It was important to me (Michelle), as the facilitator, to continually be responsive to the group. This meant I would propose a focus for the session after listening to the thoughts of the group in the initial discussion. I was able to plan some initial exercises during the warm up and then continue to respond throughout the sessions. This approach generally seemed to work well and worked particularly well when the group responded clearly and critically to the exercises.
At times I was able to step in as a 'participant', but there were times when I was more interested in watching the structure unfold.

I am writing this note to praise the work, help and advice given to me by Dawn Roman in regards to the sale of my brothers house. As administrator of his estate, I was totally lost. Dawn, with her patience, compassion, great advice and accessibility was so much more than I could have hoped for. I can not recommend her enough! Not only did she do a great job, but she now has a life-long friend in me.

As a first time buyer, I was nervous about purchasing a co-op and becoming a homeowner. From the very beginning, Dawn was friendly, patient and always available to answer my questions and offer knowledgeable advice. She made me feel like I was her only client, which I know was not the case. Dawn had my best interest at heart and made this process a positive experience. Because of her diligence and commitment to my purchase, I am now a homeowner! I highly recommend Dawn for your real estate endeavors. I don't know why anyone would use anyone else!

I want to thank you for all your time and hard work. I knew from the beginning I needed a realtor I could trust, a professional I could rely on.

You demonstrated to me that you are not only an outstanding professional, but a lady of the most sincere integrity and care for others. You are truly the best of what a realtor offers! In fact, everyone who we dealt with at your office was always kind, helpful, and professional.

{NEW} I launched a Society 6 Shop
I was doing some research the last few weeks since I've been interested in making more notecards to sell. I have some new designs and more in my head. I was trying to figure out the best place to have the cards printed and decided in the short term I'd open up a shop over at Society 6, while I figure out the ins-and-outs of producing items other than prints.
Check out my shop and grab all sorts of fun goodies: art prints, tote bags, cell phone cases, notecards, etc. There's some new designs available there, along with a couple of designs also available in my Etsy shop. More new designs are headed to both shops in the next few weeks.

The latest news and press from IPS global
February 7, 2017
Jack Frost/Big Bolder, Pennsylvania—The Pocono mountain resort, well-known for skiing and snowboarding action, becomes home to an unusual competition on March 3 when teams vie for victory in the annual WMMR Preston and Steve's® Cardboard Classic.
A legendary event among locals, the Cardboard Classic, has dozens of teams design and build sleds constructed of cardboard and tape and large enough to transport 5-10 team members down the mountain in one crazy day. IPS global has competed in the event for the last two years and they're ramping up for a third.
"This will be our third year competing in the Cardboard Classic," remarks Dan Claflin, IPS global Technology Specialist. "It's a great bonding experience when everyone comes together to work on the project."
The "project" is a massive sled (no wider than 7 feet) constructed of approved Building Materials limited to Cardboard, Tape, String and Glue (decorations like paint, etc. are permitted, but the structure must be cardboard). The finished product must transport the team from the top of the mountain to the bottom. The IPS global team consists of six members.
"The team spends weeks working on the sled after work hours," says Dan. "Everyone really gets to know one another and respect grows while collaborating on a non-work project."
From brainstorming the concept, to building, to racing the IPS global contraption down the mountain, the entire months-long project is a collaborative effort culminating in memorable day. The competitive sleds in the cardboard classic are creatively themed and IPS global goes the extra mile with their effort to build something special each year.
"In 2015 we made an IPS global delivery truck and last year's sled was a comical tribute to professional wrestling," adds Dan. In 2016, IPS global's team sled was a scale model of a wrestling ring including ropes and turnbuckles. As they flew down the hill, team members dressed as pro wrestlers acted out moves and entertained the crowds that gathered to watch the spectacle. One of the team members was even dressed as a referee.
This year's IPS global Cardboard Classic team includes Claflin, Eric Drumheller, Kory Reddick, Kyle Reddick, Rob Galloway and Scott Drumheller, who are all excited to unveil the 2017 sled creation, a replica of the USS New Jersey complete with a confetti-firing cannon!
Although all of the team members are men, anyone that works at IPS global is welcome to contribute to the effort. "There are cash prizes for best design and fastest sled," adds Dan, "but we're all just there to have a good time and make it across the finish line!

So this really has nothing to do with my fibromyalgia but it is such a great story I must share…
So a couple of weeks ago my children and I were driving down an old country road and came across a huge turtle in the road. A lady stopped right before us so that's what first got our attention. We also stopped and were trying to help get this poor turtle out of the road.
He was a snapping turtle so that only made things harder. So the only thing we could come up with was find a big enough stick to push on his shell but not hurt him but get him to safety. All the while cars driving past us. Some being rude because we are all standing in the road to protect the turtle.
We did manage to get him to safety. It was a slow process because we didn't want to hurt him. I only hope he never went back into the road. I couldn't believe how big he was. I didnt know we have turtles that big here in Ohio. He was about as big as a tire rim. Maybe a little smaller but real close.
