As she continues to enjoy her romance bliss with basketball ace Tristan Thompson, Khloe Kardashain's failed marriage to Lamar Odom has been hitting headlines.
But the reality TV star appeared to be taking all of her ex's recent revelations about their time together in her stride, as she made her way to a pinball arcade in Van Nuys, California, with her big sister Kourtney and pals Malika and Khadijah Haqq.
And while it was a girls-only excursion, Khloe's man wasn't far from her mind, as she wore the Cleveland Cavaliers standout's number 13 on the back of her black jacket, under which she donned a deeply plunging top while going braless.
Scroll down for videoThe reality TV beauty further revved up her look with a pair of black skinny jeans and towering clear heels, while a black cap added to her sexy sporty look.
Khloe, 32, and her group of close pals later made their way to a Korean barbecue, where they dined while showing off their matching varsity jackets.
Her outing came as Lamar revealed to US Weekly that his ex-wife knew about his cocaine use for the last two years of their marriage.
But it was like a 'knife in her heart' when the E! star found the 37-year-old Los Angeles Lakers vet doing drugs with another woman.
'She caught me in a sleazy motel room in L.A. getting high with this one girl,' he told the magazine. 'It was atrocious. Looking back, I'm like, "What are you doing?"'
'That was like sticking a knife in her heart and twisting it. She didn't deserve it. She always tried to help me with the drugs. I rejected the help.'
The former NBA star also confessed that 'she was disappointed' when she caught him using drugs in their own home in 2011.
'She knew I was doing cocaine the whole time after that. It was my drug of choice,' he added. 'I'm not going to say she accepted it because that would be the wrong word. Tolerated would be a better word.'
'I was hiding it for a while, but then I got frustrated and was like, 'F**k it,' he admitted. 'I was in the man cave she had made for me and she caught me.
'She was disappointed. So was I. The sad thing about it is, I don't know if I was disappointed because I was actually doing the drug or because she caught me.'
When asked if he regretted sharing his marriage on television, Lamar admitted it 'opened this gate up with other women who probably wouldn't have been interested in me.
'When I became Khloé Kardashian's man and on TV, it made me look more enticing. People who didn't even know basketball would approach me because they knew Lammy.
'B***hes and THOTs came out of the woodwork. If there is one thing I regret when I was married, it was having multiple affairs with different women. That wasn't the stand-up thing to do. I wish I could have kept my d**k in my pants.'
But the former NBA star insisted he wasn't on drugs or drunk when he suffered his near-fatal collapse at a Las Vegas brothel in October 2015.
Although Khloe filed for divorce from Lamar in 2013, she put things on hold in order to continue making medical decisions on his behalf during his subsequent health battle. Their divorce was eventually finalised in October 2016.The father-of-two told Us Weekly that he is now sober, after hitting the bottle once again following his recovery and subsequently going into rehab.
Khloe has moved on romantically, and was seen introducing new beau Tristan to her family during the recent season premiere of Keeping Up With The Kardashians.The star was asked by sister Kourtney about her new boyfriend Tristan and their recent trip to Mexico.
'My boyfriend's name is Tristan Thompson, he is a Pisces, he is Jamaican from Toronto and he plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers,' Khloe told the cameras.'We had just the best time,' she told Kourtney about their trip to Mexico.
'Right now my relationship is really new and I want to keep it close to my heart and not shout everything out from the rooftops. I have learned from the past and it is a lot of pressure to put your relationship out there,' she said.
'I don't need someone directing Tristan and I, so I am very choosy as to who I share my dating life with,' Khloe said.
Khloe and Tristan have been an item since at least September. In that time, Tristan's ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig gave birth to his son Prince.

Denied: The Los Angeles Lakers vet insisted he wasn't on drugs or drunk when he suffered his near-fatal collapse at a Las Vegas brothel in October 2015; pictured March 11
'She played a major role': The former NBA star was amazed but 'relieved' to see Khloe by his side in the hospital and credits her support for pulling him back from the brink
'Ultimatum': Earlier this year, Lamar – father of kids Destiny, 18, and Lamar Jr., 14, with Liza Morales – checked himself into a rehab facility at the urging of his daughter
Sunny break: Khloe has since embarked on a romance with Tristan Thompson
Celebrations: Earlier this month, she threw him a party to celebrate his 26th birthday
Social media: She took to Snapchat to document and share images from his big day
Thoughtful: Khloe, 32, shared a video of the celebration with Snapchat followers
Tropical fashion: Tristan looked ready to party in an Hawaiian print T-shirt, which he teamed with a giant gold cross around his neck

My weekend with the Dashwoods!
Liz and I have been fast friends since discovering early in our acquaintance that we both dislike Faulkner and Hemmingway. It's a brave thing for a Southern writer to openly admit that she doesn't like Faulkner. As for me, I prefer Eudora Welty.
Here I am with the whole Dashwood crew (plus cousin). It was such a wonderful weekend and I count myself lucky to have such amazing women as my friends.
By the way, Sex & The City was pretty good. Rebecca, Liz and I (first three from the left in the above) had a fabulous time making snarky comments and disapproving 'tsk, tsk' sounds. What was that thing on Sarah Jessica Parker's head?! Some of the outfits defied logic and fashion. There was a bit of gratuitous nudity so definitely not a movie for young children you wish to remain pure of heart. I just avert my gaze until given the all clear by braver souls.

It WAS fun! We should have girl time like that more often! :)

I'm so glad you posted that! I like to have a good mental image.
Looks like y'all had a very good day. Good friends are a treasure! Enjoy!
I'm going to post my meme today - just thought I'd let you know. I'm a bit behind, sorry.
Oh, and yes, aren't you a brave Southern writer? I am a bit ambivalent about Southern lit. On the one hand, because I'm from the South, I definitely "get it." On the other hand, we all know how it goes, and I will be honest here and betray my shallowness - if I'm going to read, I want to be transported to a HAPPY place, thank you very much. Same with movies. I'm well aware that the world is a dysfunctional place, but that doesn't mean I want to immerse my mind in it during "free time." Very generally speaking, I find it more disturbing than entertaining.
But don't quote me on that - I'll deny it when I'm around "cultured" people. ;)
Present company excluded, of course. :)

Love…is not arrogant. -1 Corinthians 13:4c
Arrogance, or pride, is perhaps one of the biggest thing that we struggle with as human beings. God frowns heavily on pride. There is no way around that. As human beings I think I can rightly say that we all have pride issues. I know I have them. I would even dare say that it is prideful to say that you have no pride issues. (Not to mention that you would then be lying since you're being prideful about not being prideful.) We have struggled with pride since the day of Adam and Eve. Since Eve decided that she new what was better for her than God did, pride has been in this wold. We find it the most natural thing in the world to be prideful. Yet 1 Corinthians 13 says that love is not arrogant, or prideful depending on your translation. If we are to show Christ's love to other people, than we must be humble. After all, Christ was the humblest man in history. Phillipians 2:8 (ESV) says, And being found in human form, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.Jesus Christ was the Son of God, and He humbled Himself and came to this sinful and rotton world and died on the cross, the cruelest form of death at that time at perhapos ever, and it was all for us, for our sins. Wow. Now then, if we are to follow Christ's example, we too must be humbled. This is something that we cannot do on our own. We need to pray and ask God to help us get rid of the arrogance, of the pride and help us be humble before Him.
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. -James 4:10 (ESV)
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, -1 Peter 5:6 (ESV)
And if in spite of this you will not listen to me, then I will discipline you again sevenfold for your sins, and I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. And your strength shall be spent in vain, for your land shall not yield its increase, and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit. -Leviticus 26:18-20 (ESV)
There they cry out, but he does not answer, because of the pride of evil men. -Job 35:12 (ESV)
Love the Lord, all you his saints! The Lord preserves the faithful but abundantly repays the one who acts in pride. -Psalm 31:23 (ESV)
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom. -Proverbs 11:2 (ESV)
"Scoffer" is the name of the arrogant, haughty man who acts with arrogant pride. -Proverbs 21:24 (ESV)

London slump drags UK house-price growth to a standstill
Across the country, price gauge for UK property falls to lowest level in four years, according to survey
UK property prices stagnated in July as a slump in London values spread to neighbouring areas, according to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
After months of decline in the London housing market, largely due to prime properties in the centre of the city, prices in England's southeast had their worst performance since 2011, RICS said in a survey published last week. Homebuilders slumped after the report, with Persimmon Plc leading declines.
Nationwide, RICS said its price gauge fell to its lowest level in more than four years, despite increases in Northern Ireland, the West Midlands and the southwest. Over the next 12 months, respondents expect prices to rise, though they were the least optimistic in a year.
"Sales activity in the housing market has been slipping in the recent months and the most worrying aspect of the latest survey is the suggestion that this could continue for some time to come," said Simon Rubinsohn, RICS chief economist.
The report is the latest to show the housing market has slowed considerably in the past year, with price inflation cooling and mortgage demand slipping. Much of the weakness centres on a change of fortune for the most expensive homes.
According to the RICS survey, for homes marketed at more than 1 million pounds (US$1.3 million), 68 per cent of respondents said asking prices had been cut in the past two months. For properties below 500,000 pounds, the proportion was 37 per cent.
The economy has also cooled, with the Bank of England downgrading its growth outlook this month and saying that Brexit uncertainty is taking a toll. Separate reports in the past week showed both consumer spending and house-price growth were in their worst slump since early 2013.
In the survey, while respondents disagreed over whether Brexit was to blame for the faltering housing market, RICS said political uncertainty was playing a part. The main problem is a shortage of homes for sale, although muted interest from buyers and the aftermath of tax changes last year were also to blame.
An earlier report from Halifax showed house prices slipped 0.2 per cent in the three months through July, a fourth consecutive quarterly decline. That left the annual pace of growth at just a fifth of its 2016 peak.

2017 What's Hot in Literacy?
The International Literacy Association releases the results of a annual survey of literacy leaders from 89 countries and territories. You can find more information about the survey on the ILA website.
The two key findings that stood out most for me were Early Literacy and Teacher Professional Learning and Development. According to the survey, early literacy is both hot and important. The respondents found it extremely important, but it was only a hot topic for 54% of the people surveyed. I can see similarities in our province. We know early literacy is very important, but it doesn't seem to get the attention it deserves from government. Some of our communities have excellent programs for preschool children, but families have to take advantage of the opportunity to make use of them. As we approach Family Literacy Day on January 27th, think about how you can support early literacy in your community.
Teacher professional learning and development is extremely important according to the survey, but it was only rated as 47% hot. Our reading councils, like most educators, are very cognizant of the "one-shot" workshop woes, but dollars are scarce for longer term training sessions. We know administrators must carefully consider what PD to support. The move to Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) is an effort to improve our professional practice through collaborative learning. Don't miss the opportunity to connect with other literacy leaders at the 4th Adolescent Literacy Summit on April 12-13 in Winnipeg. Check out the Summit website for more information.
Parent engagement and access to books and content had the largest gap between what's hot and what's important. Are these topics you or your colleagues are talking about? How do we ensure our students have access to literacy materials? Are there Free Little Libraries (or some form of them) in your community? Does your school library provide access for families over the summer? What has your school done to make literacy connections with parents? Have you tried a whole school novel, one that all students and parents read?
The survey data provides material for some interesting conversations. Share your ideas!

THE HIGH-PURPOSE COMPANY: The Truly Responsible (and Highly Profitable) Firms That Are Changing Business Now, by Christine Arena, Award-Winning Author of Cause for Success
THE HIGH-PURPOSE COMPANY: The Truly Responsible (and Highly Profitable) Firms That Are Changing Business Now, by Christine Arena, Award-Winning Author of Cause for Success
"The well-presented evidence buttresses a forceful argument that companies that care about more than making money can still succeed."
Publishers Weekly
In an age where companies such as Enron and Tyco have created a disillusioned public, the concept of corporate responsibility may seem to be an anomaly. In THE HIGH-PURPOSE COMPANY: The Truly Responsible (and Highly Profitable) Firms That Are Changing Business Now (Collins/January 1, 2007/$24.95, hardcover), corporate strategist and researcher Christine Arena shows readers why corporate responsibility is necessary for success in today's business world, and tells how to distinguish between the extraordinary companies driven by purposeful ideals and those companies that merely pretend to be responsible.
Arena defines high purpose as the sum of a company's values and its daily practices. A high-purpose company does not spend millions telling the public about their values without putting them into action.
To determine what companies are actually practicing corporate responsibility, Arena assembled a team of 10 MBA students from McGill University's Desautels Faculty of Management to analyze 75 well-known corporations from major industries that actively promote their commitment to society and the environment. The companies ranged from JetBlue Airways to Wal-Mart to Patagonia.
Arena's team dug deep. They studied public records, news articles and company-issued reports. They interviewed stakeholders that included not just employees, executives and shareholders but, also, consumers, watchdog groups and industry experts. The results were surprising. They revealed that contributing to the greater good is more than just a marketing tool - it is a market opportunity.
From Tyco's apology for wrongdoing to the success of IKEA due to the ideals of its founder, Arena takes her readers through the five steps of evolution into a high-purpose company:
THE HIGH-PURPOSE COMPANY illustrates to readers that a corporation does not have to choose between being socially responsible and making a profit. Rather, being a high-purpose company leads to success. "Companies that offer people something that's vital and substantive are more inclined to prevail," says Arena. "In this way, corporate responsibility pays."
Additional Reviews:
"Kudos to Christine Arena for daring to challenge sound-bite thinking! She asks important questions and requires the reader to take a fresh look at what it means for companies to be responsible."
– Sue Mecklenburg, vice president sustainable procurement practices, Starbucks Coffee Company
"Arena cuts through the hype and de-mystifies what can seem like a very complex field. This book is a must read for CEO's and future leaders of firms of all sizes."
- Linda Dunkel, President & CEO, Interaction Associates
"Arena strikes a healthy balance by looking at what's right and wrong with the CSR movement. She manages to inspire without ignoring the challenges ahead."
– Mats Lederhausen, managing director, McDonald's Ventures
"A well-written and engaging book that offers a new perspective on corporate social responsibility. Arena clearly presents her points and methodology, alternating between compelling case studies and tightly defined frameworks."
- Liz Maw, Executive Director, Net Impact
"An important and much-needed book. Arena unlocks the secret at the heart of business, that companies that say "it's only business" may be abandoning the maximized profit they so monomaniacally seek."
– Gil Friend, CEO, Natural Logic
About the Author:
Christine Arena is a corporate strategist, researcher and the award-winning author of Cause for Success. In the process of studying the corporate responsibility movement, Christine has interviewed hundreds of executives and change-makers in the field. Her books enable readers to easily distinguish between true and false corporate social responsibility (CSR), or winning and losing strategic approaches. Christine is a frequent speaker on the subject of CSR effectiveness to corporate and academic audiences worldwide, serves as a strategic partner to change management consulting firm Interaction Associates, and sits on the advisory panels of green business ventures IdealBite.com and Urban Re:Vision.

David Andolfatto recently constructed a model intended to 'reconcile' (or I think more accurately to distinguish between) 'mainstream' and 'heterodox' views of the macroeconomic importance of money and banking. More specifically, he wants to answer the question: does the ability of banks to 'create money' when they issue loans give bank lending a greater impact on aggregate demand than other forms of leverage? His conclusion is that in general it does not. I believe his model is wrongly specified to determine this question – it essentially pre-decides by its structure. To demonstrate this, I have identified the features that he omits from his model and attempted to incorporate them within the structure of the model he himself uses. My full response is in the form of a downloadable pdf. Continue reading David Andolfatto on Money and Banking

The Production of Money: How to Break the Power of Bankers – by Ann Pettifor
Ann Pettifor is a director of Prime Economics, which advocates for a more Keynesian view of macroeconomics, and has been involved in development and environmental economics for many years. In The Production of Money: How to Break the Power of the Bankers (Verso, 2017) she correctly identifies that 'money enables us to do what we can within our limited natural and human resources', and so 'creates economic activity' rather than being a result of it. It does this by creating the finance needed for productive employment and investment. Bank finance ensures that there is never a 'shortage of money' and so we are only limited by humanity's capacity and the physical ecosystem. Yet when 95% of the money in existence has been created by the commercial banking system, whose aim (quoting Michael Hudson) 'is not to minimise the cost of roads, electric power, transportation, water or education, but to maximise what can be charged as monopoly rent', this power must be rigorously regulated. So much should be uncontroversial today and I have written about this here. Continue reading The Production of Money: How to Break the Power of Bankers – by Ann Pettifor
Socialism, Free Markets, Capitalism and Christopher Snowdon
Why do I consider myself to be of the 'left' rather than the 'right', despite the tendency for each term to be converted to a straw-man for all the pet hates of those attaching to the opposing label? For me, to be of the left designates a prioritisation of co-operation over competition. It is to believe that human satisfaction and happiness depends more on the former than on the latter and it is to believe that co-operation comes logically and practically before competition. Co-operation should therefore be actively promoted. How much competitive superstructure is to be placed on the co-operative base is then entirely up for debate, much of it empirical in nature.
Free exchange of goods, services and labour is the essence of co-operation, and as such genuinely free markets, which being an expression of 'the propensity [in human nature] to truck, barter, and exchange one thing for another' (Adam Smith) are completely compatible with maximum co-operation and thus, I would argue, with any viable conception of socialism. The competition that arises from free exchange, to provide better quality goods at lower cost, is on the face of it, also pure social benefit. This can be misleading, however, if reliance is placed on the abstract economic concept of perfect competition – where all market participants are equal in access and power, fully informed, infinitely lived and have perfect foresight. This concept requires isolation of the market from the human, the social and the physical world. To harness markets for benefit therefore requires a huge degree of co-operation in terms of setting up the infrastructure and regulation of market institutions.

The Fragility of Bitcoin
Launched in 2009, and of wider interest since 2013, the 'cryptocurrency' Bitcoin has seen both a rise in its value in relation to existing national and supranational currencies, and in the discussion of its forming a partial or even complete replacement to those currencies. This article outlines the nature of Bitcoin and of traditional currencies and how they differ, and so examines the case for Bitcoin's future acceptance and valuation.
The urtext of Bitcoin – the so called 'White Paper' by Satoshi Nakamoto – focuses on the reversibility of traditional electronic money transfers and how this necessitates banks as trusted third-parties in these transactions.[1] The 'cryptographic proof' method of transferring bitcoins was devised initially to lock-in successive electronic transactions as part of a 'blockchain' of data, so as to eliminate the role of banks in preventing reversibility and double spending. In essence the collaborative use of computing power is used to verify the chronological order of transactions. The security and anonymity aspects of conducting transactions in this way is not the subject of this piece. The transactions thus carried out and recorded could be actually be denominated in any existing currency. Chains of such transactions would need to be closed by the transfer of that currency (physical or electronic) from the initial donor to the final recipient. Continue reading The Fragility of Bitcoin
The Role of Capital in Inequality
Thomas Piketty's "Capital in the 21st Century", published in 2014, played an important role in directing attention to the issue of inequality in the developed economies of the 21st century. The book was both praised and criticised from many parts of the political and economic spectrum. Least controversial was his laying out of the evidence that inequality of both income and wealth has increased markedly since the 1970s, particularly in the US and the UK. A little more controversial is the suggestion that this increasing inequality is harmful to the societies of those countries. Most controversial, and more technical, was Piketty's espousal of a 'fundamental law of capitalism' that when the return on capital (r) exceeds the rate of economic growth (g) inequality will increase.
The chart below shows the change in the fraction of total income going to the top 10% of the distribution for 1900 – 2010.
If 'Neoliberalism' Is So Great, Why Lie About It?
What is it about ideological free marketeers and their shaky relationship with the facts? Everyone likes markets and free exchange is one of the best manifestations of human co-operation there is – so why tell lies about their limitations and the infrastructure required to make them work for our benefit?
Sam Bowman of the Adam Smith Institute is keen to adapt the often pejorative label of 'neoliberalism' to his cheery brand of paid-for market propaganda, and promotes it under this banner in an article in the online i newspaper. He defines a neoliberal as
someone who thinks that lightly-regulated markets, free trade and free movement are the best way to create wealth and innovation domestically and globally, but that the state does have a role to play in redistributing some of the proceeds to the least well-off.

Bad Targets for Policy 2: Immigration
For most of us, it's a great boon to live in a world in which travel between even distant parts is relatively cheap and takes hours rather than days, weeks or months. We can visit, explore and learn about places and people we never could have done only 40 years ago. More than that, if things are difficult for us at home this gives us the option to try our fortune elsewhere where resources, attitudes and the style of governance may suit us better.
Is there are approaches which are systematically superior to others then it is entirely to be expected that people finding themselves where these are sub-optimal will, if they are courageous and determined enough, seek to move to those where things are better. In Western Europe and North America we regard ourselves as fortunate in having considerable freedom to say, do and trade what we wish. We think of these as rights to which most global citizens aspire. If we are right about this we must expect the arrival of people from abroad at our ports and airports who would like to live and work in our countries.

Bad Targets for Policy 1: Government Debt
This is the first blog in a two-part series on 'Bad Targets for Policy'. The second in the series will be on immigration.
We've seen a lot of focus on the 'costing' of policies in the parties' manifestos for the forthcoming UK election. But we must remember that money is only a means of keeping account. Accounts are important but they are not reality. An account of debt is important, but it is not a physical reality. When a government has a debt in its own currency which only it (or its institutions) can issue, its obligations are important but not physically binding. They are not even legally binding, since the debt can be devalued virtually to zero by inflation. It follows that the real implications of government debt are not simply consequences of current government spending and taxation and the gap between them. Indeed these may be among the least important causes.
The real consequences of government debt result from the physical burden implied by the future obligation to transfer some control over a portion of real goods and services from the state to holders of the issued debt, either as interest or in repayment of capital. That debt in the nominal quantity of the national currency (the total amount in pounds or dollars say) is only a starting point. Inflation changes the relationship between that number and the obligation in real goods and services; the changing size of the national economy alters the ability to fulfill a fixed obligation. Continue reading Bad Targets for Policy 1: Government Debt
China, Democracy and Reality
Having recently had the opportunity to visit China and combine that with some reading about the country, I've come away with some inevitably fairly superficial thoughts about how the Chinese and the West do things differently. While the Chinese government sets limits on voiced or organised challenges to the Communist Party's control of the country, it seems that most Chinese are able to pretty much get on with their lives as they wish. Having visited the great open spaces at the centre of London, Paris, New York, Berlin and Madrid, it felt disturbing to be shooed off Tiananmen Square at dusk, but otherwise despite the presence of police and soldiers at nearly every turn in central Beijing, I felt able to move around and take photographs pretty much as elsewhere.
I suspect the vast politically apathetic majority of Westerners would feel no restriction of their freedom under the Chinese regime. If the rise of Donald Trump and apparently popular strongmen such as Russia's Vladimir Putin and Turkey's Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, along with Brexit, show that the ability to vote is not enough to sustain government by reason then Mao Zedong's Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution show that the lack of a democratic buffer leads to the deaths of millions.
Blue Labour, Relationships and Free Movement
I attended a fascinating meeting last weekend arranged by the East Midlands 'Blue Labour'* group on the theme of 'How Do We Champion the Cause of the Working Class?' There was a panel of academics, journalists and local Labour politicians. I am interested in Blue Labour's approach because they are the only group within Labour that seems to have a coherent view of how to remodel the economy away from the dominance of financialised capitalism without returning to widespread nationalisation. The essence of this view is that goods and service provision should be based less on anonymous (usually monetary) transactions and more on the basis of relationships. This implies an expansion of co-operative, mutual and stakeholder businesses, and more regional and community input into local, social and health services. I have myself written about why this is important. Continue reading Blue Labour, Relationships and Free Movement

Having worked off the kitchen table for the last 6 months, it was time to upgrade. We wanted a modern looking table with a difference, and at an affordable price... Well... turns out that our taste is somewhat expensive... So we simply had to get our 'hands dirty' and make our own - plus it's a one of a kind K&i design, and there's nothing wrong about being unique is there?
We opted for a 32mm MDF board, it is super heavy so all those push-ups we've been doing really helped when we needed to carry it inside. We added two small holes for the computer cables to go through and neatly attached the extension cable underneath to minimise all those 'irritating-cables-on-the-floor' thing. The top was painted with 4 coats of Velvaglo with a light sand between each coat, and the steel legs expertly made by local blacksmith John. We are very happy with the outcome.

First post, been lurking for a long time though! I'm hoping someone is able to tell me how many turns lock to lock the steering is in a stock '63??
Reason is I have the steering box out being rebuilt/modified and they're able to alter it to take into account the larger wheels/tires to stop them hitting the fenders at full lock, one of the dimensions they asked for was original turns lock to lock which I missed getting....
Any help would be appreciated!!
Views: 97
I do not have the answer but very interesting that that qqservice is available
First time i know of altering the steering box for the tire rub
Yeah it'll be interesting to see how it turns out, they're going to rebuild it with a different ratio and 'firm feel valving' as well so it'll basically be like a late model chev silverado etc. They're very well regarded so fingers crossed!
i believe its 3 or 3.5 lock to lock. 1 full turn plus half to the left and one full turn plus half to the right.
Cool thanks Chris!!
Unless you're sideways in the wet with oncoming traffic, then its about a 100 turns lock to lock. :-)

Russia take on South Korea on Tuesday 17th June, 2014, with kickoff at 23:00. This match is currently being shown LIVE on BBC1.
Russia and South Korea kick off rather later than most in Brazil, and these are two side are in fact going to kick off their first match when Brazil have already completed their second. Russia have a well-funded team full of players who operate at the top level of continental competition but maybe struggle to turn the talent they have into results, or at least have done up until this point.
Since 2002 South Korean football hasn't quite reached those heights again for some mysterious reason, but the fans live in hope that their heroes can go one better and make the final.

Charing Cross
The original cross (the final one of 12 which marked the stages of the coffin's journey) was destroyed in the 17th century, and an equestrian statue of Charles I now stands in its place. A bronze plaque in the pavement behind the statue (placed there in 1955) marks the official centre of London, from which mileages are measured.
Charing represents a name recorded from the Anglo-Saxon period, rather than an alteration of chère reine, as is sometimes suggested.

HAGERSTOWN — Williamsport coach Chris Malott said he couldn't be happier after Tuesday's 45-36 win over host North Hagerstown in an MVAL Antietam upset.
The Wildcats displayed a lot of balance in their victory. The bench contributed just as much as the starters, the offense executed plays and the defense made the necessary stops.
"We put four good quarters together tonight," Malott said. "It was a total team effort."
Williamsport (7-10, 3-8) set the tone early, as four different players — Casey Arnone, Stacey Christy, Caroline Strite and Erin Palmer — combined to score the Wildcats' 10 first-quarter points.
"All the kids were huge tonight," Malott said. "It was great to see them all come out of the locker room with smiles on their faces."
Williamsport's biggest contributor was freshman Carley Robinson, who was recently called up to varsity and led all Wildcats scorers with 11 points off the bench.
"(Robinson) has a huge upside. She's a great kid," Malott said.
The Wildcats' bench combined to score 19 points — six by Strite.
North's most complete quarter was the first, when the Hubs (7-8, 5-5) kept pace with Williamsport for a 10-10 tie. After that, North found it difficult to find a rhythm.
"We started panicking on offense and began to throw the ball away," Hubs coach Cyndi Benjamin said.
North began to fade in the second quarter right as Williamsport started to find a groove, but the Hubs kept the damage to a minimum, trailing just 22-19 at the half.
Williamsport ballooned its lead to 38-24 with a 10-1 run that closed out the third period.
"It was a lack of focus," Benjamin said. "We stopped doing the things we practice everyday."
It was the total opposite for Williamsport.
"We were patient, took good shots and ran the offense better," Malott said. "We limited turnovers and attacked the paint when it was there."
Victoria Key cracked double digits for Williamsport, leading all Wildcats starters with 10 points.
Iman Scott led North with 15 points, while Autumn Fisher finished with nine.
Williamsport 45, N. Hagerstown 36
Robinson 11, Key 10, Arnone 7, Palmer 7, Strite 6, Christy 2, Kastelein 2. Totals 18 7-14 45.
Scott 15, Fisher 9, Kline 6, McLeod 2, Trumpower 2, Peterson 1, Smith 1. Totals 14 6-12 36.
Williamsport 10 12 16 7 — 45
N. Hagerstown 10 9 5 12 — 36
3-point goals — Williamsport 2 (Key 2). North Hagerstown 2 (Fisher, Scott). Technical foul — Scott.

I have already been asked if my previous post about shutting down the BBS/Forum section of the domain is an indication that all of my information or guides will also vanish. The answer? No!

The less time I struggle with keeping up the forums, the more time I have to write content. Plain and simple. Thank you, kind reader, for your support over the last 12 years! You are appreciated!
The forum is currently shutdown. I wish to thank all of my members for their time and effort at making my community a clean and safe one, but the task of administrating a "General" technical support forum on my "personal" website was too great.

Another great sketch from Mojo Monday - again, it appeals to me because of it's simplicity. Which seems to be the reason why I get overly (and uncharacteristically) busy with my card! Go figure.
All I knew when I saw this sketch was that it was going to feature my new favourite DSP that's coming in the mini which will launch on 1st December. So yes, you are getting a sneaky peaky!
The paisley stamp was done by inking the stamp with markers in a random way. Tip: start with the lightest coloured marker and work up to the darkest so you don't mess up your lighter colours. Use the brush tip and don't worry too much about where you ink as long as you get the variety in the colour and ensure the whole stamp is inked.
Supplies used:
Spiced Paisley (coming soon) & Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Cardstock: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Pool Party, Pear Pizzazz
Paper: Spice Cake DSP (coming soon)
Ink: Soft Suede, More Mustard, Pool Party
Designer Buttons Spice Cake in Soft Suede (coming soon), Elegant Lines Embossing Folder & the Big Shot, Hemp & Vanilla crochet thread, Basic Pearls.

Demos Announces "America Can Work Better" Week: Info-graphics, Commentary, Experts On Challenges Facing American Workers
Content Available Daily From Tuesday 8/30 - Thursday 9/8 on Demos' Blog, Policyshop.Net
WASHINGTON - As Labor Day approaches - and with President Obama's much anticipated jobs plan to be announced shortly - the national policy center Demos is illuminating America's severe jobs crisis with "America Can Work Better" week, which begins with a post from Demos Distinguished Senior Fellow Bob Herbert. Through a package of info-graphics and commentary, "America Can Work Better" will clarify the root causes of America's jobs crisis; analyze chronic unemployment among American youth; dispel myths about "job-killing regulation and taxation;" and offer some real-world solutions for getting people back to work in good jobs.
The campaign will culminate in the Thursday, September 8 release of a Demos special report entitled, "Under Attack: America's Middle Class and the Jobs Crisis," which chronicles how the American Dream is slipping away from too many.
All of the work will be hosted at Policyshop.net. Syndication/republication of blogs and graphics is welcomed and encouraged, with attribution. High-resolution versions of the info-graphics will be available at Policyshop.net as well.

Thirsty. Like when the room is dark but the alarm clock glows green. And it's three-something a.m.; minutes tick by, rapidly.
My mind races rapidly and I swallow hard and remember that I am thirsty. Out of bed; into the kitchen. Not wearing my contacts and the light is off, so when I pour water, it splashes. Half on the counter, half into the glass. The water is cold and wet and clean and just what I craved. Quenched.
No solution for a racing mind, but what a solution for thirst.
Thirsty. When I snap and the snark comes a little too easily and the sarcasm drips. When I look around at my world full of blessings and see a world full of bleh. When compassion doesn't come naturally. When I'm snippy and I say things I don't mean and think things I don't mean and that thirst is obvious. Oh, so thirsty for this grace, this redemption, this God.
Thirsty – when everything but my heart is full. Calendar, mind, sink, to-do list, refrigerator, closet, purse, desk, files, gas tank. Full, overflowing sometimes.
My heart is empty and so thirsty. Forward I go, to the One who fills my cup.
Linking up with the wonderful Joy in this Journey today for Life:Unmasked.

Parents of Younger Children
Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 2013-01-31 14:06
So, a Playa del Fuego Burn sounds like your thing, but you aren't sure if it's something to which you can bring your five year old. You've got questions. Well, we've got answers.
Please note that in this FAQ, "parent" refers to anyone legally and, more importantly, emotionally responsible for the health, well-being, and upbringing of a child, whether a genetic parent-child relationship exists or not. From the standpoint of the law, and of responsibility, a child is anyone under the age of 18. However, parents of children under age 13 are the primary target audience for this FAQ.
Can I bring along my little one?
Children are allowed at Playa del Fuego; however, this is NOT a child-oriented event. You are your child's parent, no one else. We don't know your standards for what you do or don't want your child to see, so we can't tell you that a Burn is or isn't the place for your little ball of energy. If you have been to previous Playa del Fuego Burns, or to Burning Man, you have some idea of the sort of things to which your child could be exposed. If not, it may be a good idea to come alone for your first burn, rather than pay for a non-refundable ticket and then leave halfway through when junior asks "Mommy, what's a flogger?" Additionally, you can ask parents who have brought their children to past Burns what the experience was like for them. Keith Engle, Steph Bean, and Dave Diller are available for this.
One VERY important thing to remember is that YOU will be held responsible if your child enters ANY of the VVMC's sacred areas. If your child is allowed to enter the off limits areas, which are clearly marked and rather difficult to get into by accident, it is guaranteed that you will be ejected from the event immediately. Reasonable supervision of your child should be sufficient to prevent this from being a problem.
Will there be kiddie-focused events there?
Only if you make it happen. As with everything else at a No Spectators event, that's up to you. There is no Kids' Camp, nor are there activities specifically designed for children, unless YOU want them and make them happen.
Will my kids be safe? You aren't all biker pedophiles, are you?
One of the central tenets of our philosophy is radical personal responsibility. Plenty of folks at the Burns love kids, (although some might say they love them best deep fried) and we've never had any safety problems in the past. But there are going to be lots of fires at various times during the weekend, and there are several acres of land and forest in which an unsupervised child could get lost. Keeping your child safe is your responsibility. Again, if you've never been to a Burn, it may be best to come alone to your first so that you can know what you're getting into.
Can I leave my kids in my tent at night while I whoop it up with y'all till sunrise?
This is another question that you must answer for yourself. How would your child react to waking up in a strange place alone? Would he go wandering off in search of the bathroom and risk getting lost? Would she know you were right over there with the people in the cool costumes? Do you feel comfortable leaving your child alone in your tent unsupervised? Because the only supervision your child will receive during the weekend is that which you provide.
Is there babysitting?
Only if you make it happen. There will probably be wonderful people at the event who would be happy to keep an eye on your little bundle of energy while you attend to something, but Day Care Camp does not exist. If you think it should, make it.
Is there a kids' menu?
Only if you make it happen.
What do you mean, all kids must be on leashes?
Just making sure you're still reading this.
I hear certain things happen at Burning Man that I don't want my child to see. Will they happen here?
Because each event is a unique product of the vision and energy of the community, it's impossible to say what will or won't happen at a Burn. If you're worried your child will see something you don't want her to see, you'd be safest assuming she will see it if she comes, and act accordingly.
Will there be changing stations?
Only if you make it happen.
My kid is scared of (insert random practice here). Can you guarantee that no one will do this?
Nope. Again, Radical Personal Responsibility is the order of the day here.
I'm not sure my kids will like it if there aren't Disney movies, Oreos, and gumdrops; will these be provided?
Say it with me: Only if you make it happen.
If we come, and then we have to leave Friday night because my kids don't like it, can we get a refund?
Ticket sales are non-refundable. If you aren't willing to risk having to leave early, it would probably be better if you came alone.
My 14-year old kid wants to learn to spin fire cuz it looks cool. He's pretty coordinated; can he take lessons?
Your child is your responsibility, so it's between you, him, and the person you find who is willing to teach him.
So what you're saying is that my child can come along, but that I'm still his parent so he's my responsibility. That's cool. So how much is it to bring kids along?
Children age 12 and under will be admitted free of charge. You do not need to purchase tickets ahead of time or buy tickets for them at the gate. Children (teenagers!) ages 13 and up are charged the normal rate.
I have a couple questions that aren't answered above. Who should I contact?
Make absolutely sure you've read and understand the whole Parent FAQ, and the entire main Playa Del Fuego Burn FAQ. If you still have questions, you can email the authors of this FAQ, Keith Engle or Dave Diller, or email Steph Bean.

From Fes, we started to make our way back to Spain following the same route as our first trip in 2000. This time we chose to overnight in Tetouan instead of Chefchaouen, which turned out to be an excellent choice. When our bus passed Chefchaouen, it looked to be at least three times bigger than I remembered; and being the #3 or #4 destination of all Morocco, all of the other international visitors on our bus got off there.
Except for the same three annoying touts, I liked everything about Tetouan. The medina is the most picturesque of those we visited; tidy, white washed with green trim, same as the colonial part of the city. Though small in size and our visit brief, we saw many people practicing traditional trades. No wonder they are on the UNESCO list. People are particularly friendly and hospitable, and speak more Spanish than French - good for me. I only wished we came here a day earlier from Fes.
Snagged some pretty good seats on the bus from Fes to Tetouan.
More lush countryside with a combination of cash crops, feed crops, and grazing.
Fava beans in foreground.
It was market day in several of the towns we passed through.
Tetouan, the White City, is very photogenic; this from our hotel rooftop terrace.
Tetouan has a 20th-century Spanish section built right up to the old Moroccan medina. Both parts of town are very elegant.
First the Spanish buildings...This photo is where the Spanish buildings and the medina meet.
The Cinema Espanol.
The Spanish Market.
And now into the Medina!

As Finn starts school, I'm changing my working hours, you see. His school don't do any after school clubs and certainly for the first months I want to be there to pick him up, hear all about his day and sit and do his homework with him (yes, really. At 4 years old).
I'm very lucky that I can do this. Part of the reason we started the business was to allow us the flexibility to work around family commitments and this is starting to pay off. So I'll work an extra day and finish in time for the school run.
The nursery Max goes to at the moment runs from 8-6 including school holidays. Which is great, and has been until this point but we do pay substantially for the privilege and even with the 15 hours free childcare that all 3 & 4 year-olds are entitled to in this country, it costs big at the start of each month. (You can use a maximum of 6 hours of the grant each day, in term time only so we still pay wraparound care for the other 4 hours a day and school holidays.)
So I kind of begrudge paying for evenings and school holidays when I'm going to be home anyway with Finn. I made the decision to move Max to a lovely local pre-school which is term-time only, and runs from 9-4. This will take his nursery fees from around £250 a month down to just £80. Bit of a no-brainer, really.
Your first child starting school is a big deal, right? I've written before about how much I'll miss him and my (irrational) worries for him but with all the anxiety (me) and excitement (him, thankfully) surrounding the beginning of this new adventure, I've not stopped to consider Max and how this new routine will affect him.
Since the day he was born, he's had Finn right at his side. I always think of the first-born as the pioneer, taking on life's experiences and carving out the way for their sibling(s). Finn was first to go to nursery, first to go to the activity clubs, first to walk, talk and hit the big milestones. By the time Max reached them, Finn was already there. Watching out for him, keeping him company and providing a familiar, comforting presence each time.
For the first time, Max is to do something alone and it's upsetting me more now than Finn starting school. Max already clings and cries when I leave him at nursery, the sounds of 'Mummy!' chasing me as I leave the building (I must point out that he's stopped by the time I reach the front door and always has an amazing time at nursery, as I see when I collect him) and now I have to leave him somewhere new. New people, new environment, new children.
And for the first time ever he won't have his brother there. Alone. I'm actually near tears now thinking about it. How silly is that? Parents go through this all the time. It's something he needs to do, I want him to learn independence and confidence and all the things which go with growing up but I can't shake off the feeling that he's still my baby and still needs protecting. Insane, I know since he's just turned 3 but there you go.
He'll be fine. He's been for visits and cried when I had to take him home (surely a good sign?!). The ladies who run the group are brilliant and provide excellent, inspiring, fun activities to fill the day. He'll make friends who'll probably be going up to school with him and this is important, that he'll have familiar faces when he starts big school, making that transition much easier. And we'll have more time together. An extra 2 hours when he's collected and all those school holidays, ripe for adventuring.
He's excited, Finn's excited and I'm freaking out. The best thing I can do now is just keep my trap shut, keep this as exciting as I can for them and not allay my anxieties onto them and spoil what should be (and is) a happy, positive time in their lives. They need to learn a life independent of me, of each other and I know they'll have a ball. And you know what? I'm their Mum. No matter where they are or what they do, I'll ALWAYS be right there at their side.
P.S. Is it kind of ironic that as I conclude a post about how they look after each other, they're pounding on each other in the living room? Gotta go...

Have you been Naughty or Nice - Santa is checking his list!
So....lol, here is my jolly man checking his list. I wonder which side of the list you are on?
I tried to colour the feather with green and a bit of purple and I chose too dark a green and ended up trying to lighten it with the neutral marker but that didn't work as well as I had liked so now it's all green and darker purple!!! Not exactly what I envisioned! Oh well, I really didn't want to have to start from scratch again, so it's here to stay. The hat has clear Kindy Glitz (which tends to take on the colour of what it is put on, hence the red shows up a bit from the berries!)
SU Real Red cardstock for the tag
Green cardstock from stash
DP from Kaisercraft
Image is a clear stamp from Inkadinkado - Santas
Sentiment was a freebie from Bizzy Bec ( I typed the words into Google and found this freebie)
Kindy Glitz
Distress Ink - Vintage Photo
Copic Markers
D/S tape roller
Circle Punch - 2 sizes
I am entering this into the following challenges:
Aud Sentiments - Challenge 95 ~ Tags
Crafting With Dragonflies - Challenge #17 ~ Christmas Tags
Try It on Tuesday - A handmade gift or tag
I had better go, I've got 5 Christmas puddings bubbling away on the stove. My eldest daughter came over this morning and we went off to the shops for ingredients and then back here to mix up a huge batch of pudding mix. She wants one for a gift and another to take for dessert on Christmas Day when she and her husband visit his relatives. I quadrupled the mixture and ended up with 5 puddings of varying sizes!!!
Thanks for stopping by,
Take Care,

Venezuela's president calls for popular assembly to rewrite constitution
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has called for a new popular assembly to rewrite the country's constitution as riots continue throughout the country
Maduro made the announcement on Monday while addressing a large group of his supporters during a May Day rally in the capital city Caracas.
He stressed that such a move was taken to "block the fascist coup," which is endangering the country that has been the scene of weeks of violence between pro- and anti-government protesters. At least 30 people have died during the clashes.

- Government supporter 'dies of injuries' in Venezuela
The Venezuelan president added that the new assembly would be a "citizen's constituent body, not from political parties -- a people's constituent body."
He noted that he would be submitting the application for the new body to the National Electoral Council later in the day.
The new assembly will be a group of 500 elected people from all sectors of the country's society, half of which to be chosen from the "working class base" and the rest from local councils.
"It is going to be a Constituent Assembly elected by direct vote by the people," he said.
Venezuela's current constitution was drawn up by a Constituent Assembly of various representatives in 1999 formed by the order of Maduro's predecessor Hugo Chavez.
"I am giving you the power that Hugo Chavez gave me," said Maduro. "Go and win this battle," he added.
Maduro made the announcement as security forces across the city fired teargas at opposition demonstrators hurling stones and petrol bombs.

Anti-government protests intensified in Venezuela on April 1, when the Supreme Court decided to strip opposition-controlled Congress of its powers. The move unleashed long-simmering anger and sparked the fiercest protests against Maduro in three years. While that decision was later revoked, protests have only gained momentum.
The embattled president is also blamed for Venezuela's economic woes. People have been facing acute shortages of foodstuffs and medicine in recent months and looting has been repeatedly happening in the country.
Maduro blames the crisis on foreign powers seeking to wage an economic war against his government, adding certain external forces intend to escalate the social crisis so as to eventually unseat him.

The woman in love: the most attractive Xiwai well-matched in strength and gentleness Zheng Yawen broke out in the "marriage" in the sense of why the play, has a powerful gas field, sharp tongued, and frank frank, generous domineering "Diao God" is also.

More and more women are afraid of marriage, because they can afford their own bread, love will bring unexpected trouble. Zheng Yawen in the eyes of the Lao Diao "have to strong": "Lao Diao who are satisfied, she must give themselves ventured to become invulnerability. She focused on her career and her mother, she rejected love." From the fear of marriage to "get married" Lao Diao broke his own demons, also know that only honest two hearts, can make people brave step into the field of love. Gu is less!相关的主题文章:
