The Athletic article had some more details. A couple players got back to town on Friday, were tested but didn't get their results until monday when they came back positive. Those players hung out with some other players over the weekend so they had to retest 55 players who had contact with the infected players, 6 of the retests came back positive.
Its going to be a long year.

I grew up the first 27 years ranching. If you have over 500 acres and most of it is in pasture land, and a crop is not your primary source of income derived, you have a "ranch. If you have under 500 acres, you have a "place". If you have acreage that the primary income comes from a crop, you have a "farm". Thats the way it was always described where I grew up.
CHIEF
This is the correct answer. If you make your money on livestock its a ranch, if you make your money on cash crops its a farm. "Ranches" may still grow crops but typically its supplemental feed/silage for the cows.

Missouri and Iowa are in the same region. It's like 4.5 hours from Ames to Columbia. I agree that it doesn't have much personality.
I dislike Mizzou because they're so fucking milquetoast, and have such obnoxiously high opinions of themselves. There's an odd arrogance, and their flirtation with the Big 10 is a great example of it. For some reason they thought they were above being associated with schools in other Plains states. Like people in flyover country are for some reason lesser, and not worthy of association, despite - you know - y'all are in flyover country too.
They were generally aggressively boring, and lacked the kind of big personalities that made a school interesting. They were arrogant as hell. They kinda started the whole missile crisis.
Fuck 'em.
Agreed.

They are very similar to A&M in that they could never win anything on the field so getting a SEC invite was their way to "win". They are now some of the worst SEC! SEC! SEC! kool aide drinking fans.

As a K-State fan who interacts with alot of MU fans I can help shed some light on why everyone hates mizzou. First of all you have to understand that they are constant underachievers and have been for their entire lives. They are the only P5 school in a state that has 6 million people in it but they have not won a conference title in FB since we landed on the moon. The majority of that time they were playing in the Big 8 where they had a massive population advantage compared to the other states who had multiple P5 schools(OK/KS/IA).
Despite never winning anything mizzou fans have an extremely over confident view of their program and this manifested itself with them lifting their skirt to the big10 and starting the whole conference realignment saga of 2010 that almost sent K-State to the Mountain West conference.
Fuck mizzou.

For anyone wondering how to spend some time with a quality series...I recommend The Wire.
It’ll start a little slow, the ode to Snot Boogey is just the beginning...McNulty has his flaws, but let him guide you into the seedy Baltimore underground. Season 2 will come as a shocking change of pace, but you’ll learn to begrudgingly respect it with the gift of hindsight. Omar may be the best antihero ever created for tv, but learn to love Brandon while you can so you can learn to understand Mr Little. Laugh with Bunk, but shut up when Lester is speaking and you may learn something...like Bunk does when Lester finds Lex resting place.
If I were a man with time to burn and no wife/kids to worry about, that’s what I’d do. And I’ll be jealous as fuck of any of y’all watching it for the first time.
Just finished up season 1 for the 3rd time and planning to make my way through them all again. So many good lines that you forget about (Daniels to Burrel) "You would rather be surrounded by shit than be seen with a shovel in your hand"

Just heard from a relative, who's in-laws drive semi for the largest grocery chain in Michigan.
All the drivers were given letters on company letterhead which identified them as essential personnel classified as exempt from containment zones and shelter in place orders.I work in the transportation industry and most of our customers are food/beverage/ag. We started seeing the same thing this afternoon.

In case anyone was wondering the large wine warehouses in Northern CA that everything ships out of were deemed essential and are operating as usual.

I've always thought of the Chiefs being the obvious team of choice for Kansas, even in the places where you're closer to Denver. The KC metro is very split between the two states and the original Chiefs logo has the state of Kansas on it.
Goodland KS is where you start to get more Bronco fans than chiefs fan, coincidentally its also where you would start getting Bronco games every Sunday instead of Chiefs games. Not sure where the exact Broncos/Chiefs TV line is but I'm guessing that if the main reason.

Here is some old FBI reports on the KC mob from the 60's.

And LBJ and Tricky Dick would run rings around Trump when it comes to general fuckery.
The political machinations in regards to Vietnam alone, leading up to the '68 election, make some of the shit that Republicans do today look tame by comparison. Nixon was more than happy to spoil the peace talks to help himself win in 68. Nixon was also threatening existing members of LBJ's administration (the CIA Director, etc.) that they had better help him, or they would be fired.
1,400 soldiers a month were dying in '68, and Nixon was trying to torpedo the peace talks between LBJ's administration and the North Vietnames.
Let me repeat that: An American politician was willing to work on making sure that thousands more American soldiers were killed in order to help him beat the Democrats, all so that he could try and make up for the embarrassment of being beaten by that motherfucking Catholic from Massachusetts back in '60.
Yeah, as bad as things look now they are no where near 1968.
Tet Offensive in Vietnam, middle of the civil rights movement and MLK shot in April. Sitting president declines to run for re-election, RFK shot, riots at the DNC in Chicago (both inside and outside).
1968 is a fascinating year to look back on.

IEA Sees U.S. Shale Squeezing OPEC Influence
U.S. shale-oil production will reshape global energy markets in the years to come, the International Energy Agency said
SpoilerU.S. shale-oil production will reshape global energy markets in the years to come, bolstering the country’s influence over OPEC nations, the International Energy Agency said Wednesday.
But Mohammed Barkindo, secretary-general of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, cautioned that growth in American output was slowing and its role remained essential to stabilize oil supplies.
In its annual World Energy Outlook report, the IEA said that even as annual U.S. production growth slows from its pace in recent years, policies already announced mean that the country will account for 85% of the increase in global oil production to 2030.
“U.S. growth will limit the ability of traditional exporters to manage exports,” said Fatih Birol, the IEA’s executive director. “Countries whose economies are exclusively reliant on oil-and-gas reserves are facing serious challenges.”
The report comes as OPEC leaders and their allies are preparing to meet in Vienna next month to discuss continuing oil production cuts, and as Saudi Arabian Oil Co., known as Aramco, prepares for its long-awaited initial public offering.
Higher U.S. output—rising to 19 million barrels a day of production over the coming decade —will push down the share of the global oil market held by OPEC members and Russia, to 47% in 2030 from 55% in the mid 2000s, the agency said.
Still, Mr. Barkindo said there is growing concern that U.S. shale production is increasingly decelerating. He said his own conversations with American producers suggested U.S. production could grow by 300,000 to 400,000 barrels a day next year, compared with a rise of 2 million barrels a day in 2018.
He said OPEC may also upgrade its oil demand forecast for next year if progress is made in talks between the U.S. and China.
The IEA said “the world still relies heavily on oil supply from the Middle East” regardless of any sustainable-energy policy initiatives announced. Mr. Barkindo said OPEC and its allies “have rescued this industry” by putting a floor on prices and boosting investment.
The cartel and its allies also act as a “global insurance against uncertainty against threat to security of supply,” as demonstrated during recent attacks on Saudi oil facilities, he said, when producers like Iraq or Russia made up for the temporary losses of supply.
But the IEA said “pressures on the hydrocarbon revenues of some of the world’s major producers also underline the importance of their efforts to diversify their economies.”
The U.S. also will account for 30% of the increase in natural-gas production to 2025, ensuring that U.S. total shale oil and gas output will overtake that of Russia’s by then.
The IEA’s outlook report came the day before the agency was due to release its monthly market report and hours before OPEC releases its own monthly report. Both organizations cut their demand-growth forecasts for 2019 in their October reports, citing sagging global growth and expanding U.S. shale production.
“The shale revolution highlights that rapid change in the energy system is possible when an initial push to develop new technologies is complemented by strong market incentives and large-scale investment,” the IEA’s Dr. Birol added.
In longer term forecasts for the global energy market, the IEA says that even with the policy action and targets outlined by leaders around the world, governments and businesses are on course to fall well short of the policy action needed to secure a sustainable-energy future and avoid the harshest consequences of climate change.
In that scenario, energy demand will rise by 1.3% a year to 2040, “resulting in strains across all aspects of energy markets and a continued strong upward march in energy-related emissions,” while carbon dioxide emissions will “lock in severe impacts from climate change” by that year, even as hundreds of millions of people remain without power, the agency said.
Low-carbon sources—led by solar panels—will supply more than half of the growth, with liquefied natural gas providing another third, even though oil demand will flatten out in the mid-2030s, the IEA said.
Annual electric-vehicle sales could rise to more than 30 million in 2040 from 2 million today, the agency said, but noted that a doubling of sales of sport-utility vehicles over the past 10 years is significant because SUVs are larger, heavier, less fuel efficient, and harder to electrify.

Oil noob here but I love reading about he business.
I'm assuming that shale oil exists in other places all over the world. Now that the technology to extract it exists what is stopping every other country from frac'n(may not have used the term right) their shale oil and flooding the market with even more oil?

Skylar is a very good passer and can make good throws on crossing routes, seam patterns and out routes which aren’t easy throws. He is also a good runner and deceptively fast (i don’t mean that to say he’s “white” which he is, but he just runs faster than it looks). If Skylar had a couple problems it’s 1) he is terrible at going through progressions and 2) he sees ghosts and will regularly abandon a clean pocket. If there is a comparator for him I would say Alex Smith. He can win games, make good throws inside 20 yards and kill you with his legs, but he isn’t bringing us back from 20 points down and he isn’t consistently (read: ever) hitting his third receiving option.
If we had faster WRs that could get separation, I would love to see him go downfield. He has the arm strength. But with our current crop of receivers other than Malik Knowles, the CB would be sitting there having coffee waiting for the pass.
Comparing Skylar Thompson to the #1 overall draft pick is pretty high praise.

And really, how many "city" cats actually get to go outdoors on a regular basis? I'm sure feral cats kill alot in the cities but they were killing that many 50 years ago.
-
"Domesticated" cats have been slaying birds for thousands of years. I'm guessing the real reason for the reduction is pesticides/loss of habitat.
In fact I'm going to wager there were more cats running around killing freely 50 years ago than there are now. We have a farm on the high plains and there are always around 10 barn cats that hang around the place, with the decrease in the number of individual farms over the last 50 years I'm guessing the killer farm cat population has decreased significantly.

I’m sure it belonged to some taxpayers.
Honest question. What would the president of the USA need to carry money for? It's not like he has directly paid for a meal or purchased anything in person since he became president.
Just seems odd that he is walking around with a couple $20 bills in his back pocket.
Jr's allowance money?

Yup, was an outlet from a larger lake. Caught around 10 bass and that 1 pike in less than 2 hrs.

Also hit up the valentine national refuge in the Sand Hills of NE. Found a nice honey hole in a 5 ft wide outlet stream and pulled some good sized bass out along with a pike.
