If you're one of Joe Ravalese's customers at the Country Diner in Enfield, he'll remember how you like your eggs for breakfast.
But, this weekend, he will remember something that goes far beyond that culinary track -- all the police, fire and emergency response personnel who lost their lives in the line of duty.
As a retired Enfield Police Officer, Ravalese is teaming up with TSI Harley Davidson Buell, the Law Offices of Trantolo & Trantolo and The Pleasantview Café & Golf Course to organize the "The Country Diner Police, Fire & EMS Appreciation Day" on Oct. 3.
The event kicks off at 1 p.m. sharp and motorcycles will rev up their engines for a 25-mile police escorted motorcycle ride to honor all who have died in the line of duty.
The ride will take off at TSI Harley Davidson on Rt. 83 in Ellington, and end at the Pleasantview Café & Golf Center on Route 83 in Somers.
In the meantime, guests will enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet catered by the Country Diner, while enjoying the live entertainment of The Savage Brothers and Higher Ground.
A memorial tribute will then take place at 4 p.m., honoring all the fallen heroes who have paid the ultimate sacrifice. This memorial will feature many representatives from the Silver Shield, the Enfield Police Honor Guard, and members of the Floral Park (NY) Fire Dept., along with other fire and EMS agencies. This will be followed by another full buffet catered by The Country Diner, along with more live entertainment.
The best part about this event is that all proceeds will be donated to The Silver Shield foundation, which raises money for the children of police and fire personnel killed in the line of duty.
"This charity is very dear to me as a retired police officer because the foundation reaches out only to limited areas and Connecticut is one of them. If you are a police officer or state trooper in Connecticut, this is an event to attend because it's a way for you to directly help the families of fallen brothers and sisters right here in our own back yard," Ravalese said.
Advanced tickets are $20.00 and can be purchased at the Country Diner 860-763-5338, Joanna's Café 860-763-5060, TSI Harley Davidson Buell 860-875-6663, TSI Harley Davison 860-423-3116.

What a fab idea! Are black lights expensive?ReplyDelete
Thank you for linking up with the #WeekendBlogHop
Laura x x xReplies
Thanks! Not very expensive (about the same price as a regular bulb). I got one at a home improvement store and just swapped out one of lamps bulbs for that one when we did the activity.Delete
I still have some tonic water left in the fridge - we might have to try this one.ReplyDeleteReplies
It's so much fun. I love how something so simple glows!Delete
Wow!! That looks like so much fun :) I've got a 3 year old little boy that loves anything that glows in the dark lol. He would love this!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! It's great for younger kids because it just requires tonic water and not chemical-filled paints that they could put in their mouths.Delete
I never would have guessed you used tonic water!! Thanks for linking with Tuesday Tutorials #pintorialsReplyDelete
Ah, what a great idea. We did ice painting this week, but I think my kids would love this twist to it.ReplyDelete
Love this idea - just added it to our "must do" list xx #summerfamilyfunpartyReplyDelete

The mood has shifted dramatically in the past 18 months in the United States as far as federal support of renewable energy technology. So much so that the wind production tax credit that has helped inspired many onshore wind farms is likely to expire at the end of this year.
But state-level support for incorporating more solar, wind, biomass, hydro, geothermal and other clean energy sources continues to be relatively strong. Two examples come from my home state of New Jersey, where the governor just signed a new bill to help make solar investments more attractive and whether PSE&G is seeking to invest another $883 million in projects that would help turn landfills and unused industrial properties into solar farms and that would inspire more distributed capacity in the form of residential projects.
The U.S. Environment Protection Agency keeps several lists that rank which companies, organizations and communities are most active when it comes to clean energy. One of my favorite ones is its list of the top 20 on-site generation leaders, because it counts actual projects. (The other lists also count renewable energy credits.)
The mid-year 2012 list just came out, and I wasn't surprised to hear that Wal-Mart Stores was at the top, based on the enormous number of projects that is has under way . The EPA estimates that about 4 percent of the retailer's power is currently provided by renewable sources, or about 114.9 million kilowatt-hours (kWh).
Here's the whole top 20, ranked by the number of renewable kWhs per year:
- Walmart (114.9 million kWH, or 4 percent) - Biogas, solar and wind
- BMW Manufacturing (61.8 million kWH, or 37 percent) - Biogas
- Coca-Cola Refreshments (47.5 million kWH, or 6 percent) - Biogas
- U.S. Air Force (39.7 million kWh, or less than 1 percent) - Biogas, solar and wind
- City of San Francisco (31.8 million kWh, or 4 percent) - Solar
- Kohl's Department Stores (28.4 million kWh, or 2 percent) - Biogas
- SC Johnson & Sons (27.9 million kWh, or 15 percent) - Biogas
- City of San Jose, Calif. (27.5 kWh, or 15 percent) - Biogas and solar
- City of San Diego (20.3 million kWh, or 8 percent) - Biogas, small hydro and solar
- City of Portland, Ore. (13.8 million kWh, or 8 percent) - Biogas, small hydro, solar and wind
- Encina Wastewater Authority (11.9 million kWh, or 70 percent) - Biogas
- Adobe Systems (11.6 million kWh, or 19 percent) - Biogas
- City of Tulare, Calif. Wastewater Treatment Plant (11.3 million kWh, or 45 percent) - Biogas and solar
- Google (10.6 million kWh, or less than 1 percent) - Biogas and solar
- Safeway (9 million kWh, or less than 1 percent) - Biogas, solar and wind
- University of Iowa (8.7 million kWh, or 3 percent) - Biomass
- City of Santa Cruz, Calif. (6.6 million kWh, or 58 percent) - Biogas and solar
- Zotos International (5.5 million kWh, or 51 percent) - Wind
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory (5.34 million kWh, or 27 percent) - Solar and wind
- Central Michigan University (5.1 million kWh, or 8 percent) - Biomass

A lot of This is Incomplete
When I was building my Sierra race car, I needed to bead
the aluminium for the interior. Not knowing how beading was
done I went to a machine dealers and asked if he had a beading
tool for sale, so I could get a look at how it worked. The
bloke said "you need a jenny" he dug around in a
pile of what looked like scrap produced a thing that resembled
a heavy duty hand drill; he told me "it needs rollers
and a new handle, so you can have it for £275",
if it had been £20 I wouldn't have bought it. I didn't
really get a look at how it worked before it was chucked back
in the pile of junk, something to do with me laughing?
I new that it used rollers so it was fairly obvious that
I needed to roll the metal between two rollers that had the
required bead on the radial surface and were driven at the
same speed, in opposite directions. That's about all there
is to it.
The beadroller was used on racecar interior, 22 swg ali and
16[drivers floor]swg ali; I also used it for stepping repair
panels for cars, so it also worked with 20 swg[?] steel. I
would include a picture of it but 10[?] years behind the polisher
and it looks disgusting. Figure 1 and 2 are renderings of
the autocad drawing of it, yes I haven't mastered rendering.
drawings suggestions?
i.e. views, if any dimensions needed etc.

Bomb Cosmetics candles and wax melts*
I'm a huge fan of Bomb Cosmetics but bizarrely don't think I've ever tried their candles or wax melts/burners before. I'd been wanting to try the burner and 'Little Hotties' wax melts for ages and wasn't disappointed - you get a little selection of adorably-shaped wax melts in four fragrances, and they have so many different scents to choose from. They all smell incredible and I love that you can combine complementary fragrances together or use them separately. I think they make a fab little gift! They have a huge range of candles too - the tinned candle I tried was Vintage Velvet, a delicious mix of lilac blossoms, white violets, ylang ylang and heliotrope, all wrapped up in velvet musks to create a super luxurious scent. So much love for Bomb Cosmetics.
I was recently sent some goodies from JewelleryBox.co.uk, a website I hadn't previously heard of but couldn't stop scrolling through once I was on. They have an amazing range of stunning range of really delicate-yet-beautiful jewellery, with pieces in sterling silver and 9ct gold. I love their range of delicate necklaces, particularly those in a rose gold hue, so couldn't resist getting the rose gold infinity necklace and the interlocking hoop bracelet. I also chose these adorable crescent moon-shaped earrings, as I've been looking for a pair of simple, everyday earrings recently and I thought these were perfect. The best thing about this website? Everything is really affordable. Seriously, you need to go and check it out.
The Tangle Teezer is most definitely one of my favourite, everyday, go-to hair tools, and so when I heard they were adding a super cute pug design to their repertoire, I was there. I'm building up quite a collection of Tangle Teezers (including my beloved Shaun the Sheep-print one), purely because they are so effective at ridding my ridiculously messy hair of knots and tangles whilst being compact enough to just chuck in my handbag. This design is totally my favourite - and definitely a conversation-starter when you pull it out - but who doesn't love a good pug?!
All That Jazz nail lacquer*
I have a love-hate relationship with painting my nails, and especially recently I've found it much more of a chore than a way to pamper myself. I like to slap on my polish before bed and let it dry overnight (I know, a recipe for disaster, and I've woken up many a time with duvet-printed nails) but so many polishes take so long to dry and I find I'll have smudged them before I've even shut my eyes. Once they are painted, I find so many brands of polish chip ridiculously easily on my weaker-than-weak nails, and so lately I've been at a bit of a loss as to how to make nail polish something I get excited about again. That was, until, I discovered the brand All That Jazz. Focused on trend-lead nail polishes, All That Jazz is a brand I'd never heard of until recently, but as soon as I started applying the shade Pixie Whispers (pictured above) I knew it would be the start of something special. This polish applies like a dream, is seriously opaque and leaves your nails looking and feeling glossy and strong. It doesn't chip easily, and although it's not the cheapest polish I've tried at just under a tenner, it is definitely worth it for the quality. I really love this shade in particular too - it's a beautiful muted nudey lilac that I think looks so chic on the nails.
We all know colouring books are huge at the minute, and whilst I wasn't initially sure this was a bandwagon I wanted to jump on, I gave in recently because I'm always on the look-out for ways to de-stress, and having grown up loving art and all things creative it kind of made perfect sense. I picked up the Enchanted Forest colouring book by Johanna Basford and I absolutely love it - it's such a beautiful collection of illustrations, and it's not just about colouring either - there are lots of hidden symbols to find throughout too. I know this probably won't be everyone's cup of tea, but if you're looking for something to help you relax before bed or if you just fancy seeing what the fuss is all about I definitely recommend checking out this book.
Finally, I recently received a couple of pretty bits from Joy the Store - a shop I absolutely love but for some reason always seem to forget about! I got this gorgeous rose gold 'LOVE' bangle, which reminds me of bracelets and bangles you see with motivational messages on them, just without the hefty price tag. I've been wearing it constantly since I got it and absolutely love it. I also got this adorable 'Hello darling' phone case, which I've received SO many compliments on. In a super sweet baby pink hue, it has a very Kate Spade-esque design with a white 'Hello' and metallic gold 'Darling' written across it. I love how simple yet pretty it is, and it feels great quality too.
What little things are you loving right now? Let me know!

On a late-February evening in 1755 little Willy sought solace in sweet Sarah's arms. I guess he was Big Willy now. This is his first unrecorded but undisputed 'appearance' in the records, a Yorkshire boy panting and shoving between the thighs of a local lass – not an inappropriate first glimpse, given the behaviour of some of his descendents.
It was just a question of which late-February evening.
Remember benevolent Uncle Henry – the one with too many girls?
On a similar late-February evening in 1755 Henry Spink Sr. rolled his eyes and went to Heaven. After much preparation the old sod was buried on March 2 in Kirk-Hammerton.
I think we know where the young sod was buried.
The funeral was quite an affair – he was a well-mourned man. People came from everywhere, trundling down the Roman road from Aldborough, across from York, up from Bramham – and that was just the family. His hundreds of daughters were reproducing too… the hysterics were extreme. When the Slingsby girls turned up everything changed.
Obviously young Willy was not too overcome with grief.
'She fucked him at the funeral!' squawked Hannah – and she was right.
The sha-a-a-me…
I'd imagine that in May, when news of Sarah's pregnancy became obvious, solace was the least of little Willy's problems; his second public appearance was in front of her po-faced parents. It might have been the old style religion in the fields of Whixley but it was a practical doctrine of faith – William was doubtless welcomed into her tribe with a resigned snarl and a shotgun.
Hannah was incandescent with rage. Father Will suppressed a chuckle.
Their son and this woman had done exactly the same as they had, twenty-two years earlier. At least these two sinners wouldn't have to run away.
Banns for the wedding were first placed in late July and every seven days thereafter till the big day. Now Will entered history legitimately – or illegitimately, as the case might be, his shame exposed for all to see. We know by the cross on their marriage records that both were illiterate, which isn't much of a surprise. Clearly, they didn't need words to express themselves.
Sarah was six months pregnant when she lumbered down the aisle on 17th August 1755.
'Pfft,' said Hannah, 'good riddance!'
'Pfft,' said Willy, 'goodbye!'
They didn't mean a word of it. Blood is thicker than water.
But Triffitt paint takes a long time to dry.
According to multiple records William Triffitt married a lass called Sarah Hingsby.
Sarah Hingsby did not exist. There are no records of any Hingsbys in Yorkshire – or anywhere else for that matter. But in the neighbouring village of Aldborough near York was a young girl called Sarah Slingsby, conveniently born in March 1732.
It was good to be a Slingsby. Her blood was a mix of three of the oldest families in the district; the Shaws of Cowthorpe, the Crosbys of Alne and the Slingsby's of Scriven – it flowed bright blue.
The Slingsbys were a Yorkshire dynasty. Parish records trace them back to John de Slingsby in 1210. It's quite a juicy history peaking in the execution of Sir Henry Slingsby, 1st Bart of Scriven at the Tower of London in 1658. By the time William appeared on the scene Sir Thomas, the unmarried 4th Bart of Scriven had just died. The dynasty was in decline.
Slingsby Central was really the village of Scriven, ten miles west. Slavely was in-between. The posher members of the Slingsby family became the Slingsby's de Scriven and the empire extended all of a mile down the road to Knaresborough.
Saayrah's parents, not quite so posh, had settled in a distant outpost of the empire, five miles away. Posh or not, it's a fair bet that the Slingsby's leant heavily on the disintegrating family status.
One Peter Slingsby is first sighted getting married in Holy Trinity Goodramgate, right in the middle of York, on the 20th December in 1704. After a very merry Christmas he and Mary Crossby travelled the fifteen miles back to her family village – Cundall with Lecksby – and entered into the business of the day. That meant producing a son and heir as quickly as possible. Young Thomas dutifully made his way to Holy Trinity for his christening on the 10th October the following year.
This same Thomas Slingsby fathered a family of six between 1725 and 1737 in Aldborough, five miles south. Jane, his first wife, bore him a son and a daughter before expiring sometime in 1728. Mary Shaw, the second Mrs. Slingsby, had a son then three daughters in a row.
The first of these daughters, born in 1732, was Sarah.
Maybe she liked rough trade.
The Slingsbys were all over Whixley. It was to Slingsby land that our happy couple decamped; to a farm somewhere between Whixley and Marton-with-Grafton. Those of you with children know exactly what their married life was like. Some things never change – but in eighteenth century Yorkshire they were a lot harder.
Within three months of marriage their first child was born – not only did they have to cope with the newness of each other, an icy winter, a new home and a new life – suddenly the shock of a new squalling infant. They hurled themselves in the deep end and to their credit, survived. It certainly didn't impede their sexual urge.
If you stop to think of it, sex was the only thing they could do. Life was a grind from dawn till dusk. There was no entertainment, no games, no sport, no community – just the expanded family, lost in the hills. The Puritans had already swept through, banning anything that smacked of excitement; life was a succession of 'no', 'no', 'no'. No laughter – that was forbidden, no joy – everything was sin. Sin and slog. Work. Sleep. Sin. Suckle. Work. Sleep. Sin. Suckle. What a bloody horrible time. Minds bent inward, perfect bonsai farmers – the world outside was feared.
All they had was that brief gasp of pleasure. Sure as night follows day there'll be another little Triffitt.
William's adult world was a slow, self-contained, seasonal thing, governed by planting, the harvest, weather and the propagation of children. He might travel north to Aldborough, walk to the Knaresborough markets, occasionally ride down to Cattal to see his parents and perhaps, very rarely, travel down to see the big city of York, eleven miles east – but that was about the extent of Will's worldly travels. All the known events in William's later life occur within a five mile radius of the Whixley high street. If you look on a map, it's not very far.
His daily world covered an area a fraction that size – a thin sausage of prime farming land between Whixley and Aldborough. Whixley is noted for the high quality of its soil due to something called the 'New Red Sandstone', some kind of geological blessing that extends in a narrow strip north towards Boroughbridge and Ripon bestowing fine harvest and good fortune to those lucky enough to live there.
Well, he's sitting right in the middle of it, a young man, hard-working, responsible, with a family – maybe even prospects. They all lived in a tumbledown farmhouse on the North Burrows, a mile out of Whixley. They were isolated, but in a household of eleven people, isolation is never a problem. He was a farmer.
Whixley was famous for cherries; a Whixley cherry was the finest in the world. Even today you can visit Cherry House, Cherry Drive, Cherry Tree Farm, Cherry Hill, Cherry Tree Cottage, Cherry Garth, Cherry Wood – there's even an interior designer called Peter Cherry. Odds on Will farmed them. He certainly celebrated the harvest.
Cherry picking officially starts on June 21st – the longest day of the year – and continues until the end of July. Having plucked his cherries Will evidently liked to taste the fruit: both Thomas and John were conceived at the end of the harvest.
To add to the excitement, each year the villagers celebrated Whixley Cherry Feast on the first Sunday in August, a date that may have had some bearing on at least another two of the offspring; Ann and Edward both appear in April a neat nine months after the festivities.
It is as if the family has settled into the natural order of things. They have become part of the seasons, subtly altering their breeding to fit in with the cycle of their crop. Everything seemed to tick over very nicely. By harvest time 1767 there were seven little Triffitts running around. They are back being baptized in Whixley by now, but other than that life revolves slowly as always. It's the calm before the storm.
On or about October 11th 1768, rather later in the year than usual, William and Sarah spent some quality time. With seven children in the house they probably had to barricade the door. Will snuggled down into Sarah's familiar arms and began his rudimentary foreplay.
For Antipodean Triffophiles this moment is as close to the Holy Grail as they're going to get. This is Ground Zero – our own Big Bang.
Perhaps Will's sperm was curdled, perhaps he'd had garlic for tea; perhaps after seven good children Sarah's body wanted balance and created a bad seed – nobody knows. Was his embryonic criminality accidental or premeditated? Was his wanderlust nature or nurture? What really happened to turn him bad?
Will rolled over and grunted, Sarah accepted her due and the two of them lay back on their straw mattress gasping. The deed was done, demon spawn deposited, sweet baby James already swimming to Tasmania.
There have been a great many Triffitts in Tasmania ever since. Some would say too many.

Baby James was just six months old when he attended his first – and last – great family occasion.
When Uncle John married Hannah Greaves on 19th December 1769 in Great Ouseburn everybody was there. John was twenty-eight, finally making a break from the claws of Hannah, following in the footsteps of his elder brother Thomas.
They both married so late, trapped in Mother's apron strings, unable to leave till she approved. Will already had eight children, a farm, a life of his own. These limp brothers were just an extension of their parents. No Triffitt spirit.
Alpha William was there, looking every inch of sixty, beaming proudly as his son took a bride. I wish I knew him better. Just a big-boned, sandy-haired farmer, fit only to fuck us through to the next generation. After all that searching he turned out to be rather dull. Not so his evil wife. Spink blood still flowed through those narrowing veins.
There she stood, ancient and regal, oozing disapproval as Saayrah and her brood walked by. She squeezed out a tear as her baby boy took his vows, forgetting the fact that he was nearly thirty, flourished an unnecessary handkerchief and blew her nose as his bride said 'I do', knowing that no woman could ever 'do' for her son like she did. He was like the purest Bonsai, a sweet, stunted , strangled thing – a cut above the others.
But even Hannah knew that nature must take its course. She was getting old, her husband snored, time for the next generation. She'd selected a suitable cow. John just did as he was told.
Hannah Greaves, as well as having a fine first name, came from a fertile family. She was one of the many children of three brothers; William, Joseph and Christopher Greaves in Hunsingore. Her cheeks glowed a cherry harvest, her thighs promised a thousand children, above all – her father was rich.
Hannah had Hannah on lay-by since she was a toddler.
So, today was Hannah's day.
But nobody was quite sure which Hannah.
Then death came to Sleepy Hollow.
First Will's father died at home in Cattal. That began the slaughter. The old sod was only sixty-two.
His death must have been sudden, as he died intestate. Of what, I have no idea. Dying was probably the only way he could be free of his harridan wife. He was buried in the bitter cold of November 11th 1770 in Hunsingore leaving Hannah the Black Widow of Cattal. Ripley suggests she fell ill about this time. The greater family drew together. Our Triffs appear to have given up on cherries and moved to Kirk Hammerton, just a mile or so down the road from Whixley and the same from Cattal. Will's brother Thomas had a house there.
Perhaps this dislocation upset the hormones. According to the reproductive clock the next child was due to William and Saayrah in mid-1771. No baby appears that year. After eight offspring perfectly placed in a row this anomaly suggests something strange. Oddly, after a lifetime of invisibility, we have a whole range of interesting clues to lean on.
There was trouble at 't mill. Back in Cattal, Hannah was expiring as slowly and as loudly as she could. Like all families, the children looked after the mother. Well, some of them. Only two were still at home; Mary and Edward. Both attended their difficult patient with care. The others, save John, stayed away. Mary was nearly thirty – a 'spinster' and likely to remain so, Edward just twenty-one. Where was William? Nowhere to be found.
If the sour old bitch cared to notice anything but herself she might have observed things were a little chilly outside.
The family huddled round the fireplace in Cattal, waiting for Hannah to cark it, thrown together by a force even greater than her. It was the weather. The infamous 'Black Winter' of 1771/1772 caused massive crop failure and livestock death all over the North of England. It may have caused the failure of the pregnancy, too. All up, things were pretty bleak. William, like all the farmers in the district, faced ruin.
In a distant echo of their first encounter, in the cold of a late February night in 1772, once again William drew comfort from the arms of his wife. Let's not begrudge them this moment of pleasure. Good moments were few and far between in the long Black Winter.
Alas, before she could see her grandchild, Hannah finally died, a cantankerous, demanding patient till the end. Cattal was so god-less it didn't have a church. She was buried on the last day of October 1772, chiseled into an icy grave at St. John the Baptist, Hunsingore, just a mile down the road.
Hannah left a sting in her tail; she left behind the Will of Doom with Edward and Mary her joint executors.
In the absence of his birth records, this is the only document that actually links this William with Alpha William and ANT. Circumstantial evidence is overwhelming but, until I find that final record…
Mary and Ed were obviously still in Hannah's good books. Not so her first-born. His treachery would never be forgiven. She very pointedly left William 'ye sum of five shillings' – barely a week's wages for a labourer at the time. The other kids got their proper due; each received money and items of furniture with John taking the residence and, with it, the farm. William and that slut Slingsby were left out in the cold.
Will and Saayrah had other things on their mind. Five weeks later, in the midst of a second wet, crop-rotting winter, twin boys were born; Richard and Abraham. They were duly carried through the rain to Whixley and christened a few days later.
Will was broke and at his wit's end, his joy at the twins tempered at the mounting impossibility of two more mouths to feed. Ten days later, their mother was dead.
On December 15th in Kirk Hammerton, she expired, everybody assumes, from the rigors of childbirth. Poor flirty Sarah was buried in the Kirk Hammerton clod on the 17th December 1772.
So, apparently, was Dad.
For Sarah to fade away was understandable; she'd had ten children in seventeen years – the poor woman was tired. The real Yorkshire miracle is that she lasted so long; fatigue, difficult child-birth with the twins, complications, that bitter winter – any number of things could have brought her down – but when a reliable source states that her husband William was buried on the same day this raises the considerable mystery of the simultaneous death of both parents. To lose one is understandable; to lose two at once is very strange.
The 'Black Winter' of 1771/1772 rolled on. All around them people were going down like flies. Maybe it's not quite so strange.
By implication, the fate of their two-week old twins seems sealed as well. Abraham and Richard, barely a fortnight old and suddenly orphaned in the thick of a bitter winter, almost certainly died in infancy. They may be buried in Kirk Hammerton cemetery with Mum and Dad. It was a bitterly wet winter. They were all buried in ice.
Ann moves rapidly from christening to oblivion too. Records by this point in time are fairly comprehensive. The absence of information may constitute some evidence in itself. The only real answer lies in the graveyard of Kirk Hammerton and the written records, if they still exist, of the mysterious events of 15th. December 1772.
A second source now shows that James' dad William died on 17 December 1772. The date could just as easily be the date of his burial – either way, the old fella is dead. I've just found confirmation that the twins died, too. I don't have an exact date – just December 1772. Eleven year old sister Anne remains invisible.
this may, however, be unreliable
I've always thought that this slaughter of the innocents was an accident; a fire, perhaps, rather than mere cold and despair – we'll never know until we get four, or five actual death dates. So far we only have one definite: Mum on Dec. 15th and a possible: Dad on Dec 17th. The twins were christened on Dec. 5th. In those days, christening took place about five days after birth – we could probably infer that Mum and Dad were healthy enough to get their brood to church for the great event. Within a fortnight, five of them were dead. Only the Black Plague gets those kind of results. I'm not aware of a plague at this time…
I dwell on this event. If it hadn't happened, James wouldn't have grown up without parents in a house-full of kids; his life would have been totally different. Maybe he wouldn't have… maybe, maybe…

Have just been going through some of my late father's Family History papers. Have found a document provided to him in 1998 by George Ripley of Walton-on Thames (at the time of writing he described himself as approaching 80 so am not surprised that I can't find him today). He, like you,was not a purist and enjoyed filling in the missing gaps. In the case of "William Triffitt 1730" he offers the following explanation which runs pretty much parallel to yours.
QUOTE: If the calculated years of birth of (William and Hannah's) five children were anything like accurate, the gap of 12 years between the birth of William (1729) and John (1741) merits examination. I offer the following expanation for this gap. A plausible reason for Hannah dispossessing her eldest son William, follows naturally…When William (junior) was in his late teens he met and sought to marry a lady called Sarah Slingsby. Young William was not the 3 odd years older than his proposed bride as is assumed, he was probably 4 years younger than his 23 year old bride. His mother Hannah, is unlikely to have approved of the early wedding "to an older woman" (who was in fact 6 months pregnant), but she did not make too much of a fuss. She did, however, let it be known that 'the woman and her kids are not going to live in my house'. Sarah was probably only too glad to hear that she didn't have to move in with Hannah……. yet in the five years between the birth to Sarah of Edward in 1767 and Hannah's drafting of her Will in 1772, Hannah and her son William were at daggers drawn. Hannah managed to get in the final word (an insult) with her wretched five shillings. UNQUOTE.
He then goes on to surmise that William was remarried to a Frances Lister in 1777 and had two further children by Frances called – yes – Sarah and William!.
George Ripley's documents are all typed up and of reasonable quality. If you are interested I could send you scanned copies. If so, please let me have an email address.

Site mods (like them) suggest you are no longer half way up a Nepalese Mountain.
Got the message regarding detective in Whixley. At the end of the month will be fully retired and will plan to go over there for a couple of days digging. Sems all the church records are now in the North Yorkshire County Record Office in Northallerton:
Let me have an email address and I will send you a scan of the George Ripley documents I mentioned before.
We're off to visit some friends in Sydney March/April 2011 and plan to spend a few days in Hobart. Any contacts there to advise us of the Triiffitt sights?

Just came across a Sarah Hingsy married to William Triffett on the Latter Day Saints IGI searchbase maybe the name was spelt or transcribed incorrectly. I hit a brick wall with my research and came across the entry spelt with a B instead of a V. I have the Whixley and Hunsingore Parish records if I can assist.

Nigel Lost your email in a computer crash.
Keep the story going.. it's great.. were are all fascinated and your great storytelling spurs me into keeping up the search.. I will be in the uk anagin in july aug so more legwork then.
futher to will's dad (William ) born about 1712 I have been looking at variations of spelling and by chance found another branch of my family (Bateman) actua;;y married into the triffet's in 1640.. He married an Ann Triffit whom us actually an Anna Tyrwyhit. in some records so then following the Tyrwyhit path, where many have their names spelt triffit or and of about 20 different variations, they all live on the great north road (A1) and go back to 1200's so another avenue to search Happy to forrward info all intresting with suggestions on were name came from
Regards dianna

Hello Dianna
I recently found a note from my father (who died in 2003) concurring that "the important thing is to find the birthplace and date of (Alpha) William Triffitt (Treafit)" – having drawn a blank with Triffitt and Treafit he intended to research TREWITT and TRUIT ashe had found many references to these names in the records of Bramham, a village on the old A1 just south of Wetherby. As you say above, there are so many potential spellings – I suppose it is inevitable at a time when countryfolk could neither read not write. Truit is interesting as abt. 1743 William and Sarah's son Thomas (b. 17 April 1763), James's brother had 5 children, all of whom are shown as being Truitt or Truite in the records. I agree with Nigel if we can establish where abt. 1743 William was born this could well lead us to Alpha William – and who knows where else ! We will be in Hobart briefly in March – if you live in this are (my assumption) maybe we could meet up.
Chris Triffitt.

"Dictionary Evangelist" launches word nerd website
Erin McKean loves words. And considering she was once the editor-in-chief of American Dictionaries for Oxford University Press, she's familiar with quite a few of them.
"I always wanted to work on dictionaries, ever since I was a little girl," says McKean, who refers to herself as a "Dictionary Evangelist."
Currently, she's launched a new website, Wordnik.com, a site dedicated to words and their meanings. The site allows people to share their favorite words or learn new ones, and claims to contain billions of words, 971,000,000+ example sentences, 7,000,000 unique words, 231,000+ comments, 178,000+ tags, 121,000+ pronunciations, 32,000+ lists and more.
"Almost every site online lets you mark your favorite things: you can 'favorite' a photo on Flickr, a tweet on Twitter, 'like' a Facebook post or a Pinterest Pin and so on," she says. "When we were building Wordnik.com, we wanted to make some space for people to show off their favorite words."
For example, 18 people have "liked" discombobulated as their favorite word. Other words people like recently include redux, psuedo, epistle, vacuous, provenance, peanut butter, dapper, anomaly, etherealize, litotes and superman.
Trending words for the day included infertility, gallbladder, Ps3 and jelly bracelets.
Users can create lists of favorite words in categories, too. There's a list of favorite verbs as well as favorite "beer words." There's also a Word of the Day section, too. During a recent visit, the daily word was "inkhorn," meaning "a portable case for ink and writing-instruments, made of a horn, or (usually) of wood or metal, formerly in common use in Europe, and still in some parts of the East." Who knew?
McKean authored four books about words: "That's Amore," "Weird and Wonderful Words," "More Weird and Wonderful Words" and "Totally Weird and Wonderful Words." She also wrote a novel, "The Secret Lives of Dresses." Last year, she authored an Amazon Kindle Single e-book of new and interesting words called, "Aftercrimes, Geoslavery and Thermogeddon."
"I'm lucky to have been able to write so much about my favorite words. Most folks who really like a particular word put it on their Facebook page, in their dating profiles or on their blogs," she says.
McKean, who currently lives in California, has ties to Wisconsin: her in-laws live in Wauwatosa. She graduated from the University of Chicago in 1993.
"I'm really bad at Scrabble, but really good at roller skating," she says.
McKean says she has a penchant for words both old and new. "Sometimes people think that only old words are worthy of being favorited, but I find new words all the time that are lovable," she says.
One of her recent new-word favorites is "phablet," which is a word for a combination smart phone / tablet device. She says she also likes a lot of "sniglet"-like words, including "stupiphany," which means "finally seeing something that is obvious to everyone else."
Almost everyone, she says, has a favorite word. She cites some possible favorites as serendipity because it has a pleasant meaning – "accidentally finding something useful or wonderful" – or quiescent for its beautiful sound (kwee ES sent) or a rare word like frondescense, which means "foliage or the time when a plant's buds turn into leaves."
McKean's all-time favorite word?
"My favorite word is 'erinaceous' because my name is Erin and because it has a fantastic meaning," she says. "It means 'like a hedgehog.'"

Chipotle Mexican Grill Restaurant Review: The recipe is simple: stand in line, browse the menu, point to the ingredients (many of them all-natural) you want to stuff inside your salad, burrito, burrito-in-a-bowl or taco, collect your tray and find a seat. At Chipotle, the food is universally fresh, the menu items nearly identical to those of its brethren, the service swift. The atmosphere features an industrial tone that suits the university and yuppie Sugarhouse neighborhood. With nothing to muffle the noise from the crowd bouncing off the walls, it's best to take your tray to an outside table if the weather permits.

Disclaimer: My husband is a veteran. This makes me a little biased, but it also makes me incredibly close to the topic of veteran hiring, as I've watched him transition to the civilian world and search for a new career in the past year. It's been a bit of an eye-opener. As someone who works in the recruitment marketing world, my first thought, which I voiced to my husband, was: "So many organizations have veteran hiring initiatives! Talent acquisition leaders are focusing on diversity and military recruiting. This is a good time for you to get out there. Your experience might not always match up, but with your foundation in leadership, discipline, remaining calm under intense pressure, people management skills, hard work and adaptability, recruiters will definitely be interested and will want to talk with you."
So we made a list of companies with veteran hiring initiatives and, of course, an even broader list. He reworked and customized, reworked and customized (and repeat) his resume for different roles in different industries. He created a LinkedIn profile. He read through veteran initiatives on different career sites. He researched Glassdoor. He joined a few companies' talent networks when he saw the veteran option. He wrote the first cover letter of his career. And he applied ― to many jobs. (Note: Many veterans don't have a network of contacts outside the military. They live and breathe the military while they're in the service, and many spend a lot of time deployed. For example, my husband put in his paperwork to get out of the military and then was deployed to the Middle East for four months. He didn't have time to build a network and make connections! When he got back to the States, he had one month before he transitioned out and started looking for other jobs.)
He's heard very little. He's had one conversation with a recruiter. He's received zero responses of, "You applied for this position, but I see your experience could be better suited here…" He's heard zero feedback about what he could do better or why he wasn't considered. He hasn't received any follow-up resources or been invited to join a talent network. (Very quickly, he was a Captain in the U.S. Army for almost eight years, graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, completed Ranger School and spent the last year in healthcare management. That's experience you can work with!)
Now, this really isn't unlike what happens to many non-veteran candidates applying for jobs.
According to the 2015 Candidate Experience Research, only 40% of recruiters are required to respond to candidates at all!Click to tweet
It really stinks, and it's a candidate experience issue organizations need to focus on. I am disappointed (and frustrated) at the lack of feedback and proactivity from the companies promoting veteran hiring initiatives. And even for the organizations who don't, I question:
- What happens to applications denoted "veteran"? They're sent into the applicant tracking system (ATS) that uses an algorithm to search for keywords, most likely never to be heard from again or considered for other positions.
- Why aren't more veteran candidates followed up with? Either their applications never make it to the recruiter from the ATS; the recruiter and/or hiring manager doesn't feel the experience aligns with the role; or the recruiter just doesn't have the time or resources to spend qualifying their experience. Without the right technology, there is no way for automation to help recruiters nurture interested veteran candidates!
- Why aren't recruiters trying to find the right fit between veterans and their organizations? There's a good chance they don't understand how military experience translates into a role in their company and don't have the time to have conversations that might not end up in hires (they're extremely overwhelmed with reqs and resumes, I get it!). They're more likely to call back the resume that reads well for now (and has very specific experience) versus potential in the future.
It's a challenge. It's a challenge that organizations have a need (or at least say they have a need) to hire veterans, and that so many veterans are looking for jobs, yet we can't quite bridge the gap between the two yet.
The solution is two-pronged: it's part technology, part people. The three most apparent areas of improvement I see are:
Direct veteran interest into a CRM or Recruitment Marketing Platform, not always the ATS.
CHALLENGE: Out of the 20+ applications my husband submitted, nearly all of them had some type of veteran checkbox. But the fact is, these applications go straight into the ATS, which isn't built for managing and segmenting certain types of candidate leads. Despite the attempt at noting the veterans who apply, it's probable that many veteran resumes and applications are taken out of contention based on algorithm review in the ATS ― meaning recruiters and hiring managers don't even get the option to follow up with the candidate directly, which is crucial in understanding veteran experience. If the only option veterans have is to choose a job and send in the application, then they're going to keep hitting a roadblock in the ATS.
SOLUTION: Organizations must offer another opt-in: to join a talent network. Technology like a Recruitment Marketing Platform provides a talent network form to capture interested leads and then segments them in the CRM. This way, you can communicate and engage with them – they're not in the black hole of the ATS.
Nurture veteran leads in a customized talent network.
CHALLENGE: In reality, many veterans probably apply to the wrong roles in the right organizations because it's difficult for them to assess which roles might be a fit based on their military experience (it's also difficult for recruiters to assess this!). Only 35% of the 2015 Fortune 500 provide a veteran initiative on their career site (kudos to companies like EMC, CDW, Bank of America, Nestle Purina and The Home Depot), and even fewer provide tools or assessments that help veterans match their military experience to civilian roles. Veterans are looking for resources and guidance on how to figure out the right role and the right culture.
SOLUTION: Creating a specific talent network form for veteran leads would automatically give you a pool of interested candidates with very specific experience that you can nurture until the right opportunity opens up (plus, only you have access to them, unlike a third-party talent community on LinkedIn, for example). It's an awesome opportunity to send relevant resources, educate them on your culture and people, customize messaging about your organization's value, as well as track their behavior and interest to screen them. In the end, nurture helps bubble up the quality veteran candidates and allows recruiters to do their jobs: build relationships with talent and then match them to the right role.
Provide more opportunities for your network to refer veterans.
CHALLENGE: In the difficult quest for finding more quality applicants to pass on to hiring managers, I can guess that it's even more difficult for recruiters to understand what makes a quality veteran candidate. There needs to be a way in which recruiters can have more conversations with their target audience to learn about their skills and be able to better prioritize veteran leads and applications.
SOLUTION: If referrals are so valuable for bringing in quality candidates that actually turn into hires, why aren't we using employees, customers, advocates and partners to specifically refer veteran candidates? When it comes to referrals, organizations usually require a lower barrier of entry, meaning they're willing to look at a LinkedIn profile or take a quick glance at a resume before they follow up verbally. A Recruitment Marketing Platform can customize specific referral landing pages that ask for certain information, in this instance, if the referral is a veteran and key experience they are. This would help veteran candidates get to a conversation more quickly in the application process, giving them an opportunity to explain their experience and previous roles versus being keyword-searched by an automated system.
To move forward and bridge the gap between organizations, their recruiters and veteran candidates, we need a better way to screen veterans, a better way to segment them, a better way to educate them about opportunities and better way to foster conversations (when I read this back, this is really a route for all candidates). Technology for the front-end of your talent acquisition strategy can be a huge step in this way forward ― but it has to be driven by people that are willing to take a different approach in learning about the value of these disciplined, determined and service-driven candidates.

Reviving the West's bison herds (2 letters)
Re: "Bringing the West's wild bison back from the brink," Jan. 25 Perspective article.
I want to thank Trevor Pellerite and Harmon Zuckerman for their article addressing a significant conservation initiative that often does not get the attention it deserves. I want to add a few points.
The authors state there are only three genetically pure bison herds in America. But in the last two years, the National Wildlife Federation has worked with tribes and conservation partners to restore genetically pure, wild bison to the Fort Peck and Fort Belknap reservations in Montana. Most recently, in November, we restored 134 wild bison to Fort Peck. Also, while the authors state that bison can spread brucellosis, there has never been a proven case of bison transmitting the disease to cattle. Recently, tribes have led the way in bringing bison back, and they deserve our support.
Garrit Voggesser, Denver
The writer is director of the National Wildlife Federation's Tribal Partnerships Program.

This article falsely implies that bison ranchers are not contributing to bison restoration.
When bison faced extinction in the late 1800s, five ranchers gathered the remnants of the once-vast herds. North American rangelands now hold roughly 400,000 head of bison, with more than 90 percent of the animals under the stewardship of private ranchers.
The term "genetically pure" is vastly misleading. Some bison today carry small amounts of cattle DNA because of cross-breeding experiments in the late 1800s. The National Bison Association Code of Ethics prohibits crossbreeding, and many ranchers conduct DNA testing to ensure their herds' integrity.
The Bison Association is working with conservation organizations, the Interior Department and tribal leaders to build bison herds on appropriate landscapes. Even as the department proposes expanding bison in the Great Sand Dunes National Park, federal officials acknowledge the need to forge partnerships with bison producers.

"Drepsen" is a sound installation created as part of the collective sound art exhibition Klangspeicher, at the Großer Wasserspeicher (Singuhr-Hoergalerie) in Berlin.
The Großer Wasserspeicher in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg was built in the 19th century and served as a water reservoir for many years. Nowadays the naked stone walls, built in 5 circles around the center tower, provide great sound reflection surfaces. The Großer Wasserspeicher therefore has an immense reverberation time of about 14 seconds.
During the sound exhibition Klangspeicher, one loudspeaker per circle plus one subwoofer were stimulating the air inside the reservoir.
Drepsen is custom-tailored to the acoustic properties and resonance frequencies of this extraordinary space.
The above movie only gives a very subjective impression of what the sound was like inside the reservoir. On location, the sound is by far more overwhelming, inspiring, fantastic. The most amazing effect is the changes of musical harmonies, sound colour, and rhythm, that occur when the listener changes his position within the circles of the reservoir.

Music composition and live performance for theater play RAINWASH by J.P. Morgan. Premiere at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) in Liverpool, UK, 2003. Nominated for "Best Original Music" by the National Student Drama Festival (NSDF) in 2003. Three couples, six people, all on heavy drugs. One of the women is pregnant. The unborn baby does not want to be born, as it knows it is going to have a hard time with its junkie parents, so it tries to kill itself. Its mother tries to kill the baby as well. The music is composed accordingly: dark, disturbing, distorted, loud. A quad surround system plus two subwoofers were used to supply a fully immersive experience. A computer/sampler based audio setup enabled to perform the music in realtime, responding to the actors on a very detailed, semi-improvised level.

Sir Paul McCartney is planning to be his own secret warm-up act for his first UK tour in a decade this year.
The music legend says he wants his musical alter ego The Fireman to be the support before he takes the stage for his own two- and-a-half hour show.
Sir Paul has for many years denied he actually is The Fireman, the name under which he has released two underground chill-out albums with top producer Youth.
He said: "What we were thinking of doing is a pre-show thing so you come in and the atmosphere is like a club."
Sir Paul's dad James was a voluntary firefighter.

LTO Commemorative Plate Number Coding Exemption
I still get a lot of hits when look around for MMDA Number Coding Exemptions for using special commemorative plates Are LTO commemorative plates really exempted from MMDA Number Coding? or from Makati number coding? the answer: NO, they're not exempted. You can only display the commemorative plates above your car plate number, never on top of the original plates. Even if you were promised number coding exemption by the seller of the special plates, you simply cannot avoid/go around the law by using the plates, either if you're using Ateneo, DLSU, UP, PNP, NBI, Lawyer or any other plate that cost so much (outrageous price but usually PhP2000.00/plate) unless ou want the vanity plate of the three letters and two numbers plate priced at PhP25k each, you're still under number coding

The Maryville College men's basketball team earned their eighth consecutive victory with an 85-60 win over USA South Athletic Conference foe Pfeiffer University on Sunday afternoon.
The Falcons entered the challenge averaging over 100 points per contest, but the Scots' stingy defense allowed only a 32% shooting effort that included only a 6-for-24 success rate (25%) from beyond the arc. Maryville countered with an almost 49% shooting attack (34-for-70).
Dante Hoppa deposited a game-high 20 points for the Scots on 7-of 13 shooting that included a 6-for-10 effort from long distance. He added six rebounds, six assists, and three steals. Emier Bowman had an unbelievable line score of 18 points, nine rebounds, four assists, six steals, and five blocked shots. Nick Clifton finished with a double-double. He tallied 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting while bringing down a game-high 14 rebounds. Calvin Songster added 13 points while Joshua Brooks tossed in 10 points off the bench.
Pfeiffer (9-11, 5-9 USA South) was led by Kyle Riddley's 14 points while Nolan Whitener added 10 points and a team-high nine rebounds.
Maryville (15-6, 11-3 USA South) will prepare to host Huntingdon next Saturday, February 9th. The 2:00 p.m. tip-off against the Hawks will feature a celebration of Head Coach Randy Lambert as he sets to retire at the conclusion of his 39th season.

The top-ranked Montreal Carabins and No. 2 Calgary Dinos resume their quest of a perfect regular season on Saturday as a full slate of 12 games is on the U SPORTS football program following a reduced schedule on Thanksgiving weekend.
Montreal (4-0) and Calgary (5-0) are two of the three remaining undefeated teams across the country along with the fourth-ranked Western Mustangs (7-0), who enjoy a well-deserved bye this week.
The Week 8 schedule is also highlighted by a top-10 battle between No. 5 Laurier and No. 10 Guelph, Saturday at 1 p.m. ET, live on Rogers TV and OUA.TV.
Here's a game-by-game look at the Week 8 matchups.
Bye Week
No. 3 Laval (5-1), No. 4 Western (7-0), Mount Allison (2-4).
No. 1 Montreal (4-0) at Sherbrooke (1-5)
The skinny: Montreal has won the last four head-to-head contests dating back to the 2015 regular season, including a 28-1 decision on home turf in the first meeting of 2017 (Sept. 15). With the cancellation of their game against Concordia last Thursday combined to a bye the previous week, the Carabins haven't played since a 16-3 win over McGill on Sept. 22. The Montreal defence ranks first in the country in points (9.8) and rushing yards (60.0) allowed per game, while the Sherbrooke offence ranks 24th out of 27 in points scored (14.8) and 26th in total yards (270.3) per contest… Keep an eye on (Montreal): After finishing first in the country a year ago with an average of 42.4 yards per punt, fifth-year senior Félix Ménard-Brière once again leads the way this fall with an eye-popping 45.9 average… Keep an eye on (Sherbrooke): Thanks to 8.5 tackles against Laval last Saturday, defensive back Keith Sanscartier now has a team-leading 35.5 this season.
Manitoba (1-4) at No. 2 Calgary (5-0)
The skinny: Calgary crushed Manitoba 76-17 on Sept. 16 and has won four straight against the Bisons since a head-to-head loss in the 2014 Hardy Cup final. With a win on Saturday, the Dinos would secure at least second place in the Canada West standings and home-field advantage in the first round of playoffs, and they would clinch first place with a victory combined to a Regina loss against Alberta. Calgary is the top-scoring team in U SPORTS with 51.8 points per game, while Manitoba has allowed a conference-worst 40.8 points per contest (25th in the country)… Keep an eye on (Calgary): Hunter Karl (104.2) and Michael Klukas (103.8) both average over 100 receiving yards per game… Keep an eye on (Manitoba): Running back Jamel Lyles ranks second in Canada West in all-purpose yards (177.2 per game).
No. 5 Laurier (5-1) at No. 10 Guelph (3-3)
The skinny: Thanks to a 27-25 home win last fall, Laurier snapped a four-game losing streak versus Guelph, the program's longest drought against the Gryphons since a five-game stretch from 1980 to 1984. The Golden Hawks, who host McMaster (5-1) in their regular season finale on Oct. 21, can finish as high as second in Ontario, while the Gryphons are battling for a playoff spot and wrap up league play next week against Carleton (2-4), one of the teams chasing them in the OUA standings. Expect quarterbacks to be under pressure on Saturday as Guelph (21) and Laurier (19) rank second and fourth in the country in sacks, respectively… Keep an eye on (Laurier): Kurleigh Gittens Jr. leads the country with 57 catches and needs 18 over the Hawks' final two league games to shatter the single-season U SPORTS record of 74 set in 2013 by Waterloo's Nick Anapolsky… Keep an eye on (Guelph): Fifth-year senior Johnny Augustine is tied for the U SPORTS lead with eight rushing touchdowns and leads all active players with 27 majors on the ground over his career.
Windsor (0-6) at No. 6 McMaster (5-1)
The skinny: McMaster has won seven straight against Windsor since a 55-31 conference loss in 2005, including a 44-19 road win in their most recent meeting two years ago. The Marauders lead the country in overall defence (286.5 yards allowed per game) and are second in points against (10.3 per game), while the Lancers – the only winless team in the nation – rank 25th in both points scored (14.3) and yards gained (293.3)… Keep an eye on (McMaster): After being held without a field goal in the Marauders' first three games, sophomore kicker Adam Preocanin – who a year ago ended up one short of the single-season U SPORTS record with 25 – has hit nine in his last three outings… Keep an eye on (Windsor): Despite the Lancers' struggles, linebacker Daniel Metcalfe ranks second in the country among eligible players with 8.5 tackles per game.
No. 7 UBC (3-2) at Saskatchewan (3-3)
The skinny: UBC won the first head-to-head contest of the fall 31-10 on Sept. 16 in Vancouver. The result marked the start of a three-game losing skid for Saskatchewan, which hasn't won a game in over a month (43-17 vs. Alberta on Sept. 8). The Thunderbirds' defence ranks first in Canada West and fifth in the country against the run (110.4 yards per game), while the Huskies' rushing attack ranks last in the conference and next-to-last in U SPORTS (85.2 yards per game)… Keep an eye on (UBC): Defensive back Tanner Friesen had 10.5 tackles in UBC's last game against Calgary, a season-high for the T-Birds… Keep an eye on (Saskatchewan): Kyle Siemens (15) and Mitch Hillis (7) are tied for the country's lead in touchdown passes and TD receptions, respectively.
No. 8 Regina (3-2) at Alberta (1-4)
The skinny: Regina escaped with a 28-18 home win in the first head-to-head meeting of 2017 (Sept. 16), a game in which Alberta was flagged a whopping 23 times for 203 yards. Saturday's duel pits Hec Crighton-winning quarterback Noah Picton and the Rams' nationally fourth-ranked passing offence (341.2 yards per game) against the Golden Bears' U SPORTS-worst passing defence (330.0)… Keep an eye on (Regina): Averaging 339.4 passing yards per game so far this fall, Noah Picton would need to average 435 in his next three outings to become the first quarterback in U SPORTS history to post a second 3,000-yard season… Keep an eye on (Alberta): Fifth-year senior Ed Ilnicki leads the nation with 165.8 rushing yards per contest and ranks 18th on the U SPORTS career list with 3,506 yards, 240 shy of the school record set by Dalton Smarsh from 1972 to 1976.
Bishop's (1-4) at No. 9 Saint Mary's (4-1)
The skinny: In the first meeting of the season on Sept. 9, Saint Mary's took a commanding 23-0 lead in the first quarter en route to a 40-21 road victory. The Huskies top the AUS in both points scored (28.8) and allowed (20.2) per game, while the Gaiters rank last in the conference in both categories (22.8 / 32.4)… Keep an eye on (Saint Mary's): Running back Johnny King ranks second in the country in all-purpose yards per game (192.2)… Keep an eye on (Bishop's): Wide receiver Nathan Walker is not far behind King in fourth place with 188.0 all-purpose yards per contest.
Waterloo (4-3) at Ottawa (4-2)
The skinny: Ottawa has won 11 straight against Waterloo since a forfeit loss in the 1997 Churchill Bowl and is 22-2 all-time in head-to-head competition, the Gee-Gees' only on-field loss to the Warriors coming way back in 1966 (8-6). Looking for their first post-season berth since 2003, the Warriors have lost three straight following a 4-0 start and have allowed 64 points per game during their losing skid, dropping them to 26th in the nation in points against (42.7 per game). With a win, Waterloo would secure a home playoff date for the first time since 1998… Keep an eye on (Ottawa): With two conference games left in his illustrious career, fifth-year kicker Lewis Ward is tied for second on the U SPORTS all-time list with 84 field goals, seven shy of the national record set by Calgary's Johnny Mark from 2011 to 2015, and is tied for fifth place in scoring with 392 points, 18 shy of the school mark established by Neil Lumsden from 1972 to 1975… Keep an eye on (Waterloo): Wide receiver Tyler Ternowski leads the country with 146.0 receiving yards per game.
StFX (3-3) at Acadia (4-2)
The skinny: Acadia beat StFX 38-24 on Sept. 9 to snap a five-game overall losing streak against the X-Men. Another Axemen win on Saturday would set up a battle for first place in the AUS standings on Oct. 21, when Acadia closes out conference play against Saint Mary's (4-1). The Axemen defence leads the country with 12 interceptions, while StFX quarterbacks have been intercepted a U SPORTS-worst 12 times… Keep an eye on (Acadia): Teammates Jadin White-Frayne (5) and Garvin Cius (3) rank 1-2 in the nation in interceptions… Keep an eye on (StFX): Receiver Kaion Julien-Grant leads U SPORTS in punt return yards (533) and is tied for first in touchdown catches (7).
Concordia (2-3) at McGill (1-4)
The skinny: Concordia crushed its crosstown rivals 68-16 on Sept. 16 thanks to six touchdown passes from 2015 conference MVP Trenton Miller, a new single-game school record. On Saturday, the Stingers' nationally eighth-ranked run defence (116.2 yards per game) faces a Redmen offence that ranks last in the country in rushing yards (47.4) and points scored (10.2) per contest… Keep an eye on (Concordia): Placekicker Andrew Stevens ranks first in the nation among eligible players with a 92.0% success rate on field goal attempts (12-of-13)… Keep an eye on (McGill): Wide receivers Remi Bertellin (133.5), Joshua Lucas (106.0) and Jeremy Sauvageau (102.8) all average over 100 all-purpose yards per game.
Toronto (1-5) at Carleton (2-4)
The skinny: Carleton has won three straight against Toronto – including a resounding 65-7 victory last season – since a 50-10 loss in its return to OUA football in 2013. While the Ravens are still hoping to make the playoffs for the third consecutive year, the Varsity Blues hope to avoid extending their U SPORTS-worst post-season drought to 22 years since an OUAA semifinal appearance in 1995… Keep an eye on (Carleton): Linebacker Leon Cenerini leads the country in solo tackles (47), total tackles (60.5) and tackles per game (10.1)… Keep an eye on (Toronto): Standout defensive back Nick Hallett added a game-high 12 tackles to his season totals last week against McMaster and now ranks fifth in the nation in tackles per contest (7.8).
York (1-5) at Queen's (2-4)
The skinny: Queen's is 18-0 all-time versus York, including a 33-32 thriller in their most recent head-to-head meeting two years ago. Hoping to avoid missing the playoffs for the second straight campaign, the Gaels have rebounded from an 0-4 start with back-to-back wins, in which they've exploded on offence with 122 total points. The Lions haven't qualified for the post-season since 2004… Keep an eye on (Queen's): Quarterback Nate Hobbs threw for a combined 865 yards and eight touchdowns in the Gaels two wins against Windsor and Waterloo… Keep an eye on (York): Defensive end Rossini Sandjong-Djabome leads the nation with 10.5 tackles for a loss.

I'm sad to learn Jean Lyle and her husband Bill have retired. This means my most favorite needles of all time are no longer available. There are still a few in stock but when they are gone – well…. you know the rest.
I did some research and have decided to offer Jeana Kimball's Foxglove Cottage needles in their place. These needles also come from England; they are in a little plastic case. And there are 16 needles in each case.
We are starting off with the Betweens/Quilting needles in size 11 as we no longer have any of the smaller sized Jean Lyle quilting needles available.
