Got this in the mail from a friend. It's the Tim Tebow Halloween costume, which comes with the complimentary worshiping press that the Florida quarterback gets. Bonus points for The Bible as well. It's just an hour that teams like Missouri, Kansas State and Kansas can all play the same sport as Tebow. He's practically invented everything associated with college football. (I'd still take Vince Young,...
If you’re in charge of such things for a parish, or just want a nice little post-Christmas family devotional, check this out: The link is here History: Michael and Bishop Baker wrote this last year. It was published as a supplement to the diocesan paper and the bishop did a series of EWTN spots based on it. [...]

In the excitement and flurry over INDIGO SPRINGS, I've neglected to mention that PASSING FOR HUMAN , a beautiful limited-edition anthology edited by Steven Utley and Michael Bishop, and featuring my "Cooking Creole" as well as Jessica Reisman's incandescent "Nights at the Crimea," has finally arrived here at Chez Dua. It is a lovely, exciting and multi-layered group of stories,...
Permutations is the official blog of the ASA’s Mathematical Sociology Section, and it while it has been in its quiet pre-launch phase for a little while, it now seems to be officially open for business. The lineup looks good and should be somewhat familiar to OrgTheory readers (jimi adams, Michael Bishop, Matt Brashears, Bob Hanneman). [...]
The budget has been signed. From Peter Luke "The budget is signed. State government will not shut down," Granholm said in a conference call with reporters. "This is the state budget we have, but it is not the budget we need." Granholm blasted the Republican-controlled Senate's "extremist" ideology that she said fails to consider revenue options to restore funding for the...
I usually spend a half an hour a day looking up random videos on YouTube (no wonder I'm single). Today, I found this one from Canada, most specifically the Canadian Football League. Just watch the first two minutes or so. There are some good highlights of former Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop. While it's just the CFL, Bishop still clearly has a cannon and it's 10 years later. Speaking of Bishop,...

Yes, I will fully admit it and offer this confession: My second favorite college football team is the Kansas State Wildcats. It's been like that for several years now, but this is the first time I'll admit it. I'm out of the closet. Each year, I want the Missouri Tigers to go 13-0. I would love to see Kansas State go 12-1, with that loss coming to Missouri. If Missouri doesn't win the Big 12, Kansas...

Yesterday's Lex column in the FT maybe sums up the current state of play at ITV It is a terrible indictment of Michael Grade’s reign as executive chairman that the company is unable to attract new tenants for its c-suite. With Sir Michael Bishop withdrawing his candidacy for the chairmanship, headhunter Russell Reynolds is again back to square one, days after Sir Crispin Davis, the previous favoured...
