Greg Abbott's long-running game of whack-a-mole continues. The two recent Texas court rulings on HB2 and the constitutionality of educational funding (the ones that Abbott fought against and lost) prove that the Texas GOP, and its 2014 slate of candidates, are on the wrong side of the law.
Perhaps the Texas GOP's new campaign tune should be "I Fought the Law and the Law Won."
Poor Greg Abbott! He can't catch a break these last three days. It's certainly no bedtime story like Alexander's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. It's more like a campaign nightmare.
On Thursday, Abbott lost his fight to defend $5.4 billion in education cuts as the Texas school finance system was ruled unconstitutional.
On Friday, a federal judge ruled that HB2 (the law shutting down women's health clinics) was unconstitutional.
It was 94 years ago today that Congress passed the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote. This accomplishment didn't happen overnight. After years of determined effort, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton drafted the amendment and introduced it in 1878, but it took forty-one years for Congress to submit the amendment to the states for ratification.
Anytime an ethically-challenged politician reaps some well-deserved karmic rewards, it makes me pretty happy. The news of Rick Perry's two felony indictments made me giddy with excitement, along with a bit of schadenfreude.
For many months now, left-leaning District 19 residents have expressed their displeasure with Congressman Randy Neugebauer and his job performance. Unfortunately, most right-leaning residents pooh-poohed the facts, chalking it up to nothing more than "Libtard" whining.
Feeling as if you've been pelted by hailstones this week?
Yeah, me too. Deadly pestilence, plagues, wars, violence and wholesale disorder lurks in every corner of the globe. 18th century anyone?
The most fascinating period in American history is the Post-Industrial Age, the evolution of the worker, the emergence of the robber barons, the clash of worldwide ideologies and fervent irrational nationalism that birthed fear, violence, the imprisonment of innocents, and wage slave psychology.
I love reading about that era, but I never dreamed I'd be reliving it.
The President's critics persist in the myth of lax enforcement of immigration policies as the cause of the flood of refugees from the south. It's a simplistic answer to a complex problem that serves an extreme diabolical purpose.
As is with any social problem, Americans prefer to point fingers and blame. This crisis is no different. We blame the parents of Central America for sending their children away, we blame the President for not enforcing the law, we blame the porousness of our borders, and we blame employers for hiring illegals.
Ambivalence: Holding simultaneous and conflicting attitudes and emotions about a certain issue.
The refugee/immigrant/illegal alien issue is NOT an all-or-nothing-support-or-reject-issue. If you're an intelligent and reasonable person, you probably have some mixed feelings about this. Just like other Americans, swaying back and forth in this cognitive tug-of-war, I've been vacillating between sympathy and national self-interest for several days.
On January 6, 2000, the last thing in the world I wanted was a dog.
After five hyper cocker spaniels and a herd of feral cats, I was finished with the inevitable heartaches that are a predictable part of owning animals.
But it was the day after my son's 12 birthday and all he'd ever wanted was a dog…and you know how easily we're persuaded by our children's tears…So that very day, I was determined that the boy was going to get a dog. Within minutes of perusing the ads for animals, we settled on one: "Free to a good home, female, pug mix."

Who knew John Ford could help explain the vicissitudes of the global conflict between Islamists and the West?
Two summers ago, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge took the internet by storm, raising millions for a disease that, before all those dousings, mostly flew under the radar. ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, strikes roughly 6,000 Americans per year. For those people, and their families and friends, it's a nightmare diagnosis; a disease that, generally over a few years, robs one of the ability to move, to eat, to speak and ultimately to breathe.
There's a scene halfway through "Bad Moms," wherein a PTA meeting full of suburban moms turns into a full-on frat house-style rager. Moms in sweater sets, khakis and sensible sneakers chug liquor straight from the bottle, make out, huff whippets, crash tricycles and urinate on lawns, all in glorious slow motion, hair and spittle flying to a pulsing pop beat. It's featured heavily in the trailer for the film, and is the best scene in the movie. Bad mothers? Shut your mouth.
It seems another member of Clint Eastwood's brood is ready for stardom.
THE BFG. 3 stars. Steven Spielberg's supersized dream of a movie, adpated from the Roald Dahl children's book about a little orphan girl and the Big Friendly Giant who takes her away. Newcomer Ruby Barnhill and Oscar-winner Mark Rylance star, and even if the story takes some silly turns, there is magic here - on a very large scale. PG (scary images) - Steven Rea
"Breaking a Monster," director Luke Meyer's insightful and disturbing documentary about the music business, opens with a home video from 2010 showing two boys jamming out in a basement den. Tiny-looking kids with their big instruments, singer-guitarist Malcolm Brickhouse and drummer Jarad Dawkins look awfully goofy as headbangers.
Set in wintry 1945 Warsaw and based on true incidents, Anne Fontaine's "The Innocents" is a moving study of what happens to the faithful when God's plan suddenly seems impossible to follow. In its early scenes, a young French Red Cross doctor named Mathilde (Lou de Laage) is summoned to a rural convent after a frantic nun, Sister Maria (Agata Buzek), pleads with her for help. Upon arriving, Mathilde finds a nun in painful labor - and others in advanced pregnancy. They have endured, explains one haltingly, "an indescribable nightmare," after a horrific Red Army occupation of the convent some months earlier.
Jason Bourne finally knows who he is. But "Jason Bourne" doesn't know how to process that information.
On Jan. 27, 2015, director Paul Feig posted four photos on his Twitter account: head shots of Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. A few hours later, he sent out a follow-up tweet: "In other news, #Ghostbusters will be hitting theatres July 22, 2016. Save the date!"
Having made a triumphant trilogy of thrillers in "The Bourne Identity" (2002), "The Bourne Supremacy" (2004), and "The Bourne Ultimatum" (2007), Matt Damon announced that he was moving on. He joked that if he ever returned to the character of the rogue CIA assassin, the film should be called "The Bourne Redundancy."
Like "Hunger Games" but digital and with cuter outfits, the uneven thriller "Nerve" pits teen against teen in a daredevil online game - "like Truth or Dare," we're told, "minus the truth." Staten Island high-school senior Vee (Emma Roberts), frustrated when her best friend Sydney (Emily Meade) calls her a "watcher," signs up to play Nerve, the game all her friends are obsessively following. This means she must carry out a series of dares, beginning with kissing a handsome stranger (Dave Franco) who's reading Virginia Woolf in a diner, as handsome strangers do.
It's almost unfair to judge "Equals" as a movie - it feels more like a visual song. Despite genuine feeling and stunning images, there's just not much to the film. Its story is thin, and what little of it there is steals from a million different places ("1984," "The Giver," "Her," "Romeo and Juliet" - you name it). Nothing, not even a supposed twist late in the game, is surprising because we've seen it all before.
In this era of so many movies being based on comic books, it would be easy to think "Captain Fantastic" falls into that genre. Actually, the film couldn't be any more different from one of those big-budget blockbusters.
Filmmaker Taika Waititi grew up in a very small New Zealand community amid poverty and intense challenges, but those dark and adverse situations taught him to cope with laughter. He spent his youth in the 1980s consuming a diet of British and American TV comedies, working in underground theaters and creating his own madcap nonsense. Now he's a recognized rising star as a comedian, writer, actor and director.
It's a hairy moment for Lt. Cmdr. Montgomery "Scotty" Scott: The crew of the Starship Enterprise has crashed on an unknown, unfriendly planet, and the spacecraft's chief engineer, separated from Kirk and Spock and the rest of the gang, is dangling from a cliff, an abyss below.
It turns out you can teach an old dog new tricks. That's if the dog is super-soldier former CIA agent Jason Bourne (Matt Damon), and the trainer is director Paul Greengrass, who helmed Bournes "Supremacy" and "Ultimatum." After the misfire that was "The Bourne Legacy," a misguided attempt to pass off the franchise to Jeremy Renner, Damon and Greengrass ably right the ship, delivering a Bourne film that looks and feels like the kind that we've always loved.
Daniel Gueret (Ange Dargent) is already 14, but he hasn't quite made it through puberty. A slender boy with a small frame, fine features, a long mop of a hairdo, and a falsetto voice, the hero of "Microbe & Gasoline," from French director Michel Gondry ("Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"), is often mistaken for a girl.
Parents need to know that "Ice Age: Collision Course" is the fifth installment in the popular prehistoric-themed "Ice Age" franchise. It's not necessary for viewers to have seen all of the former films to understand the plot line, but it does help. The violence/peril is less intense than in previous installments but does feature serious natural catastrophes - like a fiery asteroid headed for Earth (and destructive meteors) - as well as egg-stealing birds bent on destruction. You can also expect a little bit of insult language ("turd," "stupid"), as well as mildly suggestive comments about "parts retracting" and hotness. The coupled-off characters also embrace or kiss very briefly. As always, the messages revolve around teamwork and the unconditional love/acceptance of the right "herd."

text: Introduction Greetings one and all welcome to my humble abode today I will be taking you through the 3rd gen team of smogon's very own degenerate Abra. Why third gen you may ask, as I flipped through the forums I saw the third gen RMT and it cried out to me it said "Abra save me" so I did what any self respecting smogon would do and made a RMT Special thanks to EnragedBeast and BanNattorei The power of Adv lies behind bulky sweepers, things like Crocune and etc dominated the meta game you won't be seeing a high concentration of just one wall or just one sweeper which is why I like the meta game so much but with this in mind don't expect much as I am not proficient in Adv OU myself but if you would use this team to start you off I would be honored with that stop reading this. The Team At a Glance "Lord Liam" The Snorlax ---The Tank @ Leftovers Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 124 HP / 68 Atk / 124 Def / 36 SpA /156 SpD Brave Nature (+Atk, -Sp) - Body Slam - Fire Blast - Earthquake - Shadow Ball Lord Liam has saved me many a times in fact after you get done reading this RMT go leave a comment on his profile about what a great snorlax he is, anyway back to the team the snorlax like I said before is vital it's shadow ball allows for it to take on offensive celebi pretty well defensive can take shadow balls better unfortunately but it overall takes special threats which there are many of and just serve them from the opponents team. The EV spread allows you to take many hits and hit back just as hard with a significant difference from the usual smogon set as I am running EQ over self destruct. The reason being this snorlax plays a huge part in my team I have no other counters for some threats such as for example DD Tar a massive threat in this meta game that EQ hits for good damage all in all if you want to take out Fire Blast for Self Destruct you may Considering our next poke is... "Skarm's Skar" The Magneton ---The Trapper @ Leftovers Trait: Magnet Pull EVs: 252 HP / 96 SpAtk / 152 SpD / 8 Spe Modest Nature (+SpAtk, -Atk) - Thunder Bolt - Hidden Power [Fire] - Sleep Talk - Rest This bro lives up to his name not only does he "skar" that annoying titanium bird he also tends to mess up forretress's day just be careful switching in those things tend to pack EQ. Also I find it important to mention it's not always a clean hit ohko on skarmory on rare occasions so I suggest dumping a few more into SpAtk excuse my lack of precision and professionalism i'm just new at the trade any who this guy is a under looked help and although he barely get's to shine after killing skarm/forry I appreciate him none the less. Like I said play around with the SpAtk a lil more but other than that the set is solid rest talking allows for healing and some hits while alseep nothing more to say really. "Shitrio" The Dugtrio ---The Revenge Killer @Choice Band Trait: Arena Trap EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpAtk) - Earthquake - Rock Slide - Hidden Power [Bug] - Aerial Ace Sigh dugtrio where do I begin, you see that nickname over there it holds true this thing can be my savior/tormentor. I mean when Magneton decides to let skarm live with 5% percent it's ok I can just finish it off but ohoho no when dugtrio decides to let a +1 DD tar survive it usually means Lord Liam has to take a huge hit and die or suicune does. I really do have a hatred for this thing how can you be 3 moles in one and STILL SUCK but never the less on to the Ev's and move set It may be tempting to run adamant over jolly but don't do it wise guy jolly helps outspeed +1 T-tar frankly sometimes even after you outspeed it Shitrio decides to fail but hey what can you do,for it's years of generous service shitrio can get this picture to summarize what I think of it , any who HP Bug is for celebi even though of course being the shit he is he doesn't OHKO bulky celebi EQ ofc is for Stab and Rock Slide for the EdgeQuake Aerial Ace I assume is for coverage even though I never got to use it outside of killing some unlucky ludicolo "Blarara!" The Skarmory --- Physical Wall @ Leftovers Trait: Keen Eye EVs: 252 HP / 60 Atk / 184 Def / 12 Spe Impish Nature (+Def, -SpAtk) - Drill Peck - Spikes - Roar - Rest The most lovable bird in the meta game you just want to kick it across a flaming field while thunder bolts rain from the sky. The name is a refrence to Durarara!! combined with the username of a dear user :D he knows who he is. The ra is good for skarmory as that is what he likes to do best: roar. The obvious choice for a physical wall god knows I need one. Standard Ev's for a standard poke and Standard moves for a standard pokes Roar instead of whirl wind because drill peck isn't compatibly with WW guess that's the price you pay for more power if you want to run WW because of the pp thing you can go with HP flying not like you'll be OHKO anything outside of a parasect anyway. "Neutral Milk" The Suicune ---The Sweeper, Physical Tank,Dragon Hunter and MVP @ Leftovers Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 188 Def / 60 SpAtk / 8 Spe Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Surf - Ice Beam - Calm Mind - Rest Oh suicune how I love thy let me count the ways, this guy erm thing is easily the most frequent thing seen in the Adv, and as anyone can tell you i'm not one for OU whoring so why is it on my team? BECAUSE SUICUNE as you can see in it's title/description I labeled it as dragon hunter. It's amazing how one's set could change simply with one move this thing takes out the mences skarmory just can't also the rare flygon get's smashed. Honestly this summary won't do crocune justice but two words will: CM SWEEP, The name not that anyone cares is a refrence to Neutral Milk Hotel their song Aeroplane over the Sea reminds me of suicune again not that anyone cares. Ice beam to earn it's rank of dragon hunter Surf for stab Rest for recovery and CM ofc for the sweep. It isn't crocune but it's pretty damn great I tell you what " Seighart " The Dragonite ---DD Sweeper @Leftovers Trait: Inner Focus EVs: 74 HP / 252 Atk / 184 Spe Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SpAtk) - Dragon Dance - Hidden Power [Rock] - Wing Attack - Earthquake Ah the name sake of this whole RMT at this point I can either be labeled a noob or a troll but I ask you to see me in a new light a revolutionary! "There is literally no reason to use Dragonite over Salamence"-blarajan. Wise words true as they may be they did not deter me from using this pokemon. It fills the same role as mence just with weaker flying/rock moves and no intimidate. If you are going to use this guy over mence be advised Earthquake does more then wing attack if it's neutral to the opposing pokemon I made the mistake once and had a poke live with 1 hp just what I get for using a Dnite I guess. Why do I use him well i'm not going to go into it but let's just give a honorable mention to my bro Kirk the Dirk. A legitimate reason to use Dnite for all you skeptics could be I suppose his superior special bulk or physical bulk to mence even though intimidate evens it out. The ev's allow you to live a ice beam from a swampert which is kinda nice, but at +1 you only start to 3HKO with EQ (Spike support from skarm use it) other than that just max attack and the rest into speed moves allow for a psuedo mence set just to set the mood with Wing Attack being 10 base power weaker then mence's hp flying and hp rock being 15 points weaker than mence's rock slide. If you are serious about Adv though you might want to use salamence and ignore my b/s IMPORTABLE (Move your mouse to reveal the content) IMPORTABLE (open) IMPORTABLE (close) Lord Liam (Snorlax) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 124 HP / 68 Atk / 124 Def / 36 SAtk / 156 SDef Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd) - Body Slam - Shadow Ball - Fire Blast - Earthquake Shitrio (Dugtrio) (M) @ Choice Band Trait: Arena Trap EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Rock Slide - Aerial Ace - Hidden Power [Bug] Blarara! (Skarmory) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Keen Eye EVs: 252 HP / 60 Atk / 184 Def / 12 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Spikes - Drill Peck - Rest - Roar Skarm's Skar (Magneton) @ Leftovers Trait: Magnet Pull EVs: 252 HP / 96 SAtk / 152 SDef / 8 Spd Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Thunderbolt - Hidden Power [Fire] - Rest - Sleep Talk NeutralMilk (Suicune) @ Leftovers Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 188 Def / 60 SAtk / 8 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Surf - Calm Mind - Ice Beam - Rest Seighart (Dragonite) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Inner Focus EVs: 74 HP / 252 Atk / 184 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Hidden Power [Rock] - Dragon Dance - Earthquake - Wing Attack

Should You Get Special Privileges for Getting Knocked Up?
New York Councilman David Greenfield has announced a bid to win over the city's pregnant ladies with legislation to give special parking to women whose OB/GYNs say they have "physical or mobility challenges." As reports the Daily News, the bill would let those ladies park in no-parking or no-standing zones for free until 30 days after their expected due dates.
As Greenfield says, "New York is a tough place to get around. If you have a difficult pregnancy, it's even tougher. This should make it a little bit easier."
New York is a tough place to get around. And there's a culture of support to pregnant women that involves letting them cut you in line for the bathroom or dressing room, getting up for them in the subway, and generally being nicer and more conscientious than you would likely be to a regular old none-baby-ridden person. Because you or your wife/girlfriend/sister/friend might be pregnant too, someday, and anyway, it's the right thing to do.
Once the pregnant women release their spawn to the world, we hold doors for them, help them with their strollers, watch to make sure their roving children don't venture too close to the subway tracks, politely cover our ears and keep our mouths shut when those children begin to squall. None of that is wrong. Being kind and generous to others, helping someone who needs it, having baseline good manners, is admirable.
As Greenfield said,
"If I'm on a train and a pregnant woman walks in, I stand up and offer her my seat. I consider this legislation to be the same thing -- standing up on the City Council for women who have difficult pregnancies."

But. (You knew this was coming.) Should good manners be legislated?
Other arguments against the bill include the following: • Parking laws in the city are ridiculous already, as is parking. • Easy parking could "further stigmatize pregnancy," and bolster a perception that pregnant women are weak and/or "disabled." • This is rife with the possibility of scam. • There's no effective enforcement. • Why are these women with difficult pregnancies driving in New York City, anyway? • When did New York City become such a baby-state?
All these claims have their own element of validity, but our greatest beef is this: While we're perfectly happy for children to exist in this city (and exist they do), presuming they don't live next door to us and wake up at 5 a.m. every day screaming, New York is not supposed to be easy for anyone, whether you're pregnant or not.
Transportation is hard for all of us. Commuting sucks. Mountain-goating up to your sixth floor walkup with bags of groceries is unpleasant regardless of the state of your embryo. And pregnancy is a choice.
Also a choice? Being kind to not only pregnant women, but all of the people you share the city with. And, yet...legislating that kindness just makes us want to kick something.
New bill would grant pregnant women free parking throughout the city [NYDN]

Now that we are into May, the Highlands tourist season has well and truly begun. For the last few months we have been kept busy making up oders for the various shops and visitor centres we supply so that they are ready for the influx of visitors. You can see some of the places we supply by clicking on the links menu button on the left.
For those of you able to come to our studio, we have acknowledged the arrival of the summer season by cleaning out and planting up the hanging baskets. If we remember to water them regularly, they should soon be a blaze of colour. I took this photograph at the end of the day with the sun shining off the sign - it is more visible than you see here! When the doors are open, we are open - do come in and visit.
We have been at one craft fair so far - great success apart from the fact that it started to rain just as we were packing up to go home so the gazebo had to be taken down wet. However, lots of satisfied customers went away with a range of products from small Christmas decorations through to our cosy Hebridean Hoods.
Our next event is at the beginning of August when we will be at the Highland Field Sports Fair at Moy, just 10 miles south of Inverness. We will be sharing a marquee with "Half-A-Moon" who make lovely stained and fused glass products and with "Pictish Designs" who make a range of resin and pewter jewellery items. This is a fun event for all the family so why not come for a day out? Friday 5th and Saturday 6th of August. Visit the HFSF website for more information - http://www.moyfieldsportsfair.co.uk/
On these pages you will find information about who we are, where we are and what we do. You can browse our online shop or look at pictures of our work. There is more that goes on at the Workshop - we have links to our other websites where you can find out about feltmaking classes, ecclesiastical embroidery or made to measure garments, among other things. We also have links to shops that sell our products and other interesting sites, including how our main fabric - Harris Tweed - is made.
We use technology that spans the centuries - from a 100 year old Hattersley loom for weaving some of the tweed we use through to state-of-the-art embroidery machines and a laser cutting machine. But we do low-tech as well! Everything is hand finished and we are often sitting with piles of hand-sewing to do.
Visit our online shop pages to see our full range of products - wraps, capes, cushions, wallhangings, bags and purses, Christmas decorations and more. Prices range from as little as £4 for a keyring to as much as you can afford for a large one-off wallhanging.

"Nothing in Biology makes sense except in the light of evolution" was the title of a 1973 essay by the evolutionary biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky. The module links fundamental understanding of molecular processes in the cell to principles of genetics and inheritance to a broader appreciation of evolution and how it shapes the natural world around us.
Molecular ecology is an emerging field that takes advantage of the latest advances in molecular genetics to answer a varied range of theoretical and practical questions in ecology including conservation genetics, behavioural ecology, phylogeography, adaptation, hybridization and speciation. Through a combination of theoretical lectures, laboratory practicals and class discussions we will consider the application of a range of molecular and statistical tools to problems such as species conservation, biological invasions, wildlife forensics or fisheries.
The module will identify major issues in the conservation of aquatic organisms and develop the knowledge base of students in aquatic conservation, including those related to captive breeding programmes and the potential effects of climate change and other stressors. Some of the lectures/seminars are given by invited experts in the field. The module is assessed by a combination of continuous assessment (50%) and written examination (50%).
Students in this course will learn to (1) identify scientific papers of relevance to their program of study using literature databases, (2) appraise the results of primary research and effectively extract and summarise scientific information, and (3) present the results of a literature search in a clear and logical manner within a correctly structured review format Assessment for this module is 100% through continuous assessment. This module requires the submission of two pieces of work of appropriate standard and according to the format of a peer-review publication. The topic of the first review will be given by the instructor and will be submitted before the end of term 1 (worth 40% of the mark), while the second term review (topic chosen by the student) will be submitted at the end of the term (worth 60% of the mark). There are no examinations for this module

With the low number of quality companies raising distributions in the last week of the year, I decided to focus on the companies which have a high chance of growing distributions in 2011. The companies that manage to grow distributions for a long period of time have a very high chance of continuing their streak of consecutive dividend increases, until something unexpected happens. In order for a company to be able to grow dividends for over one decade it has to have recorded earnings growth. Consistent earnings growth is only possible if the company has a wide moat or a strong competitive advantages based on price, quality or a combination of both.

In dividend investing, it is important to keep a close look at the long term picture behind each company you are investing in. As a result, the stocks mentioned above should purchased only after investors analyze them and assess that the probability for future dividend growth of over one year is high. I would not purchase a stock just because it would raise a dividend for one year. I would purchase a quality dividend stock only if I see it fit to generate higher yield on cost in the future for me.
Full disclosure: Long all stocks mentioned above
