A few years ago Moontrug heard bestselling author Andy Stanton speak at a literary festival and one boy in the audience laughed so much he was sick. Kind of EWWWW but kind of COOL as well. It was at that moment Moontrug thought: surely this author is the funniest guy in children's books today. And then along comes William Sutcliffe with a side-splitting debut and Moontrug knows there's competition on the Giggleometer… Sutcliffe's Circus of Thieves and the Raffle of Doom is a must read for children aged 6+ who love books by Roald Dahl, Andy Stanton and David Walliams.
Hannah's life is boring, boring, boring! Then Armitage Shank's Impossible Circus comes to town and Hannah's world is turned on its head when she meets Billy Shank, his astonishing camel, Narcissus, and a host of other bizarrely brilliant members of the circus. But all is not as it seems; Armitage Shank, evil ringmaster and Billy's surrogate father, has a dastardly plan that could end in catastrophe for Hannah's dull little village and it's up to Hannah and Billy to stop his stinking scheme before it's too late…
The first thing you notice about the book is the fabulous illustrations by the wonderfully named David Tazzyman. He illustrated Andy Stanton's books and his humorously energetic eye has worked its magic again with Sutcliffe's story. Sutcliffe brings us brilliantly memorable characters (Fluffypants McBain, the tabby cat from the Post Office, Narcissus, the taramasalata-loving camel and Irrrrrrrena, the acrobat assistant drenched in olive oil) who propel the story forward with energy and wit. What starts as a 'rumble and a clatter and a faint trembling of the air' soon becomes the country's whackiest and most unforgettable collection of circus acts.
Sutcliffe is a natural story-teller and he gets you laughing from page 1. When Hannah jumps up onto Narcissus, the taramasalata-loving camel, Sutcliffe writes: 'riding this animal was like sitting on a seesaw strapped to a supermarket trolley rolling around the deck of a boat on a stormy day in the middle of the Atlantic.' You get the drift. And the footnotes are up there with Chris Riddell's in Goth Girl: 'Uglily isn't a word. You know that. I know that. Let's just move on.' Sutcliffe's characters are refreshingly original – and funny. Take Maurice, the oiled-up acrobat ,(and you must say his name as if you are gargling an espresso of pond water – Murrggghhhheeece – because Maurice is French): 'In fact he was so proud of being French that he actually became slightly ratty if any other French people came within range, causing him to increase his Frenchness in order to ensure that he was always the most French person in his immediate vicinity. This was why he'd been forced to emigrate. Living with such a high level of competitive Frenchness in France itself was simply too exhausting.'
With his fantastic characters (did I mention Jesse, the Human Cannonball, the itchiest man in the world who suffers from vertigo and is afraid of cats and spaghetti?) and hilarious sense of humour Moontrug reckons William Sutcliffe is one to watch. I mean anyone who makes up words for a living (think gloombucket, gobgasted and flabbersmacked) and teaches us wise facts like 'Penguins do not bend in the middle' is worth a place in the Altocumulus Tower.

Norfolk's care provision still 'inadequate'
The long-awaited report by Ofsted into children's services in Norfolk has again deemed that it is inadequate.
The watchdog declares that there "are widespread or serious failures that mean the welfare of looked after children is not safeguarded and promoted".
Ofsted said Norfolk County Council has failed to improve significantly its care of looked-after children after being rated inadequate in June 2013.
The report said the children's services department had "lost touch" with 190 children who left its care and cannot be sure that they are safe, Of those, 26 were vulnerable 16- to 17-year-olds.
County Hall immediately issued a rebuttal to many of the findings in the report.
It said it welcomed the view of inspectors that "significant improvements" had been made but has issued a formal complaint about many of the findings, feeling it too harsh.
James Joyce, Chair of Norfolk County Council's Children's Services Committee, said: "There is much in the report that we welcome and agree with, which is why we can't agree with its ultimate conclusion.
"But it is clear from the report that children are now much safer and better protected than they were two years ago. When we came into office in 2013, the task facing the department was phenomenal. We had a shortage of social workers, no early help service and more than a hundred unallocated child in need cases. We are now being praised for our innovation in recruitment and our efforts to develop projects that keep families together. We have made huge inroads but we want all services for Norfolk's children to be good or outstanding.
"When we met with Ofsted last week they acknowledged that the draft report contained errors but these errors have not been corrected in the final published report."
Among the points Ofsted highlighted after an inspection in July was that care and pathway plans are not good enough. Pathway plans were described as "poor" and record keeping about the progress made by young people and those in care had gaps.
Targets set for these children in the classroom were not challenging enough.
The report acknowledged that due to geographical considerations, "the recruitment of social workers remains a challenge".
The release of the report comes on the day that councillors meet to discuss cutting another £16 million from the children's services department budget.

AbstractInorganic layered crystals exemplified by clay minerals can be exfoliated in solvents to form colloidal dispersions of extremely thin inorganic layers that are called nanosheets. The obtained "nanosheet colloids" form lyotropic liquid crystals because of the highly anisotropic shape of the nanosheets. This system is a rare example of liquid crystals consisting of inorganic crystalline mesogens. Nanosheet colloids of photocatalytically active semiconducting oxides can exhibit unusual photoresponses that are not observed for organic liquid crystals. This review summarizes experimental work on the phase behavior of the nanosheet colloids as well as photochemical reactions observed in the clay and semiconducting nanosheets system. View Full-Text

The majority leader in the National Assembly of Kenya, Aden Duale, has declared that homosexuality is just as serious a threat as terrorism.
Earlier in March, ruling National Alliance party member Irungu Kangata demanded that Duale "report to and inquire into; reasons for the non-enforcement of anti-gays laws, whether there are any organizations that are championing violation of the aforementioned law and if they are registered, what steps are being taken by the government to de-register or curtail such organizations' activities."
In response to calls from other Kenyan MPs claiming the country needs to introduce even tougher anti-gay laws, Duale said, "We need to go on and address this issue the way we want to address terrorism. It's as serious as terrorism. It's as serious as any other social evil."
"I want to urge my colleagues that this is a social problem," he said, according to Buzzfeed. "It is incumbent upon our religious leaders, our political leaders, government, parents, school administrators, we must [campaign against]it."
Despite the comparison, he went on to say, "We do not need to go the Uganda way, we have the constitution and the penal code to deal with homosexuality, and so this debate is finished, we will not be enacting any new, tougher law."
At present, a number of politicians led by MP Irungu Kang'ata have recently been demanding that anti-gay laws in Kenya become stricter, and according to a Pew Research survey, 90 percent of Kenyans support passing harsher laws against the LGBT community.
Duale also claimed that since 2010, Kenyan police have investigated 595 "cases" of homosexuality.
Kenyan law states that sexual activity between two men is punishable by up to fourteen years in prison, but currently the laws are rarely enforced. Sex acts between women are not explicitly mentioned in the law, making lesbianism a legal grey area.

There was plenty Mets third baseman David Wright did well in the field yesterday, including making a bare-handed play on a slow grounder to end the eighth.
But Wright booted Jayson Werth's grounder to lead off the Nationals' ninth, giving him his eighth error in his past 10 games.
It continued what manager Terry Collins called a "[crummy] homestand defensively."
Wright, who has made 18 errors in his injury-plagued season, said he doesn't have any particular reason for his recent fielding problems.
"You can take ground balls all day, but you can't simulate the ball off the bat in a game situation," Wright said after the Mets' 10-1 loss to the Nationals yesterday at Citi Field. "I just have to stay confident."
Wright also said the struggles haven't gotten into his head.
"I've never been tentative," Wright said. "Once you start not wanting the ball hit to you, you're going to get it hit to you."
He also could use some luck.
"I'm getting in-between hops and that kind of compounds things," Wright said. "When you're struggling, you rarely get that nice, big hop to make it easy."
Collins said he still hasn't lost faith in Wright.
"He had a bad homestand," Collins said. "That's not a reflection on how good he's been playing all year. It's just a bad time right now."
Jose Reyes got his scheduled day off yesterday, as the Mets and the shortstop try to manage his hamstring.
Though Collins said he knows he has to rest Reyes, it doesn't make it easy to play without one of his key contributors.
"Even though due to his leg situation he's not the Jose Reyes we all know, he's still one of the best offensive players in this game," Collins said. "So not to have him in the lineup when we're struggling offensively, yeah it's hard not to put him in there."
Collins said he plans on playing Reyes all three games in Atlanta.
Ike Davis flew back to Arizona after yesterday's game, his final trip to Citi Field this season.
"I'll be ready for spring training," Davis said. "I'll start working out earlier in the offseason to get myself going."
The Mets' 1-8 homestand was their worst since 2004, when they went 1-10 from Aug. 23- Sept. 2. . . . Jason Bay's run-scoring double in the sixth snapped the Mets' 18-inning scoreless streak. Bay, who went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles, is hitting .382 (21-for-55) over his last 16 games.
The Mets went 0-for-11 with runners in scoring position and are hitting just .189 (18-for-95) in those situations in their last 10 games.

text: Ok, So I was doing some research this morning and came accrossed a spectacular website that will help the Internet Marketer. It will help with promoting your website/products and create backlinks. I am sorry I do not want to tell everyone cause I want to get some ideas on how I can make some money with letting marketers know about it. I am thinking about creating a ebook on how it works and how you can make money from it. I did some searches for this on BHW and found nothing, so I know I will be able to make money. I could just use the site myself to make money but I have no website yet to market. If you found a website like what I am talking about how would you use it. Again I can not give any info on the site cause I do not want to release anything about it. This can be used for newbs right up to pros. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, J

|Questions regarding SSL
|Wed, 14 Feb 2007 18:20:04 GMT
I've tried to do my homework but I'm still having trouble with getting HTTPS to work. For starters: Server is Windows 2003 Standard Server, SP1. Java version is jdk1.5.0_04 plus update 11. Tomcat version is 5.5.20. Tomcat is set up to run as a service using the native dlls. I've built a keystore, created a CSR, gotten a cert from InstantSSL and loaded the 3 certificates from InstantSSL into the keystore. Next I modified server.xml to enable 8443, refer to the location of the keystore and provide the password. Then I restarted Tomcat HTTP works fine with either 8080 or 8443, returning the splash page. If I use HTTPS, IE eventually times out with the generic DNS error page. It is consistent in this whether I use localhost, the ip address or the eventual domain name (presently set up in the hosts file for testing). I've reinstalled Java and Tomcat thinking I missed something. I got a replacement cert and built a new keystore. Same results. There are no errors logged relative to this in either the windows logs or the Tomcat logs. I'm new at Java and Tomcat so I'd appreciate a pointer or two on where to look next.

Kaboul left feeling blue
09 March 2014|Tottenham Hotspur
Younes Kaboul was left stunned by how events eventually materialised at Stamford Bridge.
The defender returned from injury and played his part as we performed well for the first 55 minutes against Chelsea.
But then the game turned against us.
Jan Vertonghen's slip let in Samuel Eto'o to open the scoring on 55 minutes and just three minutes later, Younes was judged to have fouled Eto'o in the box and was sent off.
Eden Hazard slotted home the penalty and left us 2-0 down with 10 men for the final 30 minutes. It stayed at 2-0 until the 88th minute when Demba Ba scored twice for the final 4-0 scoreline.
Younes offered an honest assessment. "When you look at the game, if someone watched the first half and didn't watch the rest, then saw the scoreline of 4-0, they would ask 'what happened?'" he said.
"The thing I'm upset about is that we fell apart after 2-0.
"I thought we started the game very well, the first half was good, we played some good football and could have scored with Nabil and Sandro.
"We started the second half well as well but then we made a mistake, okay, then the second goal. For me, it wasn't a penalty.
"After that, we fell apart really and it's not good enough for the club. We have to do much better than that, even if there are consequences in the game that go against us.
"We should have a better reaction."

The Triborough Amendment
The Mandate: The 1982 Triborough Amendment to the Taylor Law prohibits a public employer from altering any provision of an expired labor agreement until a new agreement is reached. This amendment, which was originally approved with the strong support of unions, has the effect of requiring automatic pay increases where a salary step schedule or longevity schedule exists, even though the labor agreement has expired. Consequently, a public employer's salary costs continue to rise even when labor negotiations have reached an impasse.The Triborough Amendment also undermines the collective bargaining process by discouraging unions from offering concessions or givebacks since, as long as no agreement is reached, the terms of the current contract remain in effect. Not only is New York the only state in the nation known to have such a requirement, but in the private sector, where collective bargaining has existed for more than 60 years under the National Labor Relations Act, no similar obligation is imposed upon employers who are parties to a labor contract.
The Cost: The dramatic impact that the Triborough Amendment has on collective bargaining translates into a negotiations process that discourages compromise, putting New York's taxpayers at an extreme disadvantage.
The Solution: The Triborough Amendment should be repealed so that public employers and employees can be encouraged to work together to achieve labor contracts that are both fair and affordable.

Eutelsat Moves into New-generation In-flight Connectivity Services via KA-SAT
New Eutelsat Air Access service to be commercially available across Europe from mid-2013
Jan 24, 2013, 06:45 EST
PARIS, January 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Eutelsat Communications (Euronext Paris: ETL) announces the launch of a new aeronautical mobile service called Eutelsat Air Access designed to accelerate the deployment by commercial airlines operating in Europe of in-flight connectivity for passengers. Delivering speeds of up to 100 Mbps per airliner, Eutelsat Air Access will be available from mid-2013.
The new service uses ViaSat SurfBeam® 2 technology, the most advanced and competitive system available for airborne connectivity using the Ka-band, and will be deployed on Eutelsat's KA-SAT high throughput satellite which delivers a total capacity of 90 Gbps. Leveraging the high transmission speeds and bandwidth of KA-SAT, Eutelsat Air Access will allow aeronautical service providers to offer passengers top-quality Internet access, videostreaming and GSM services via tablets, smartphones and laptops. Eutelsat also has the option to add further unique ViaSat networking features for management of high-speed service levels to passengers. The service will be launched across Europe and the Mediterranean Basin, with the objective to expand the service area using other Ka-band satellites.
Eutelsat is partnering on the deployment of Eutelsat Air Access with LiveTV, a leading provider of live in-flight entertainment and connectivity services for commercial airlines. LiveTV will provide, integrate and maintain on-board equipment and operate Wi-Fi internet access services and video streaming for passengers. As a pioneer in the expanding market for live in-flight entertainment and connectivity, LiveTV has already equipped more than 700 aircraft around the world. Aer Lingus is the first carrier to seize the opportunity of new-generation in-flight services. The Irish airline last month signed a letter of intent with LiveTV and plans to launch in-cabin Internet access for customers on its European network. The new service will be available on Aer Lingus short-haul fleet, including Airbus A319/A320 and A321. The first flights with the service are planned in the second half of 2013.
Eutelsat's CEO, Michel de Rosen, commented on the launch of airborne services via KA-SAT: "We believe that in-flight connectivity is a strong growth market and are ready with the latest technology and strong partnerships to address this business. Over the next 10 years the number of aircraft offering in-cabin entertainment and connectivity services via passenger devices should grow by more than 50% a year in Europe and the Middle East, and more than 80% in Asia and the Pacific. Eutelsat has already gained experience in aeronautical mobile services using Ku band satellites. With Eutelsat Air Access we are moving into a new era to enable airlines to cost-effectively bring in-cabin connectivity to their customers."

The clock is sleeping when the drunks strike two.
Night takes a boot to the ribs —
"Move along. You can't sleep here kid!"
And no one cares how much rent is or how early you have to be up for work.
The bars pour out—
The loaded load onto the streets and into their cars.
Laughing and fighting outside my window,
Yelling and crying like lost children.
Then comes the breaking glass, gun shots, and screams.
And it doesn't stop until every siren of every last cop car, ambulance, and fire truck in this god-damned city cry out, "FUCK IT! EVERYBODY UP!"
And the night is no longer sacred.

Following Garland's one and only "official" Bike Route
|The neighborhood bike route where it intersects with Kingsley Road
As we were studying maps we came across this unadvertised route and found that it runs through the city of Garland. There was no information on the City of Garland's website, so we decided to explore it for ourselves. What we found was a route that was best suited for faster paced group rides than it would be for a mom pulling her kid behind her on a bicycle trailer. Although there were some low traffic areas that wound through neighborhoods and underdeveloped parts of the city, there were also some areas where cars were going in excess of 40 miles an hour. We would like to point out some interesting things that we saw that day and would also like recommend some improvements to make this route more commuter friendly.
Here's a map of the route we covered that day.
Some recommendations we would make right off hand to make the bike route more bike friendly:
- "Share the Road" signs to complement the existing bike route markers.
- More traffic enforcement along the bike route for the protection of cyclists.
- Bicycle lanes along Glenbrook, Kingsley and First Street where they meet the bike route.
- Increased promotion of bicycle route to Garland residents. Community awareness of it's existence.
Our journey first started on Duck Creek Greenbelt park on the southeast corner of Garland. We took the trail to First street and then followed the Bike Route signs through some neighborhoods until we reached Kingsley. We rode for less than a quarter mile on Kingsley alongside some fast paced traffic then veered back into the neighborhoods following the bike route. We continued on the route until reaching Glenbrook Road. Glenbrook road then proceeded to take us all the way into downtown Garland. Here's a few more pictures of downtown Garland along with some observations we made.
|There seems to be too much emphasis on trying to park so many cars in such a small space.
|Vetoni's Italian Restaurant
|The old diner sign for Main Street Cafe.
|Fountains line the downtown plaza and theater.
|An empty plaza that could be used as a community social center. Where are all the musicians and chess players?
|An art mural on State Street
We continued on Glenbrook Road, passing Buckingham Road and eventually reaching Apollo. On the way back we stopped at a classic car show in a parking lot of a small Mexican restaurant. This would be something I would normally pass up if I were driving my car. But since I was on my bike, I took the time to check out this small gathering of classic car aficionados. It's just a small example of happenings within the community that many disregard due to being socially disconnected by their vehicles.
Just like a small community that is proud of their history and shares their love of classic cars, so can Garland become a community that comes together over cycling by giving it social importance. Garland has a rich history and a lively culture that would express itself if given the chance. In order for a community to come together it has to first become visible to one another. Cycling removes that social bubble and forces us to interact with one another face to face. As we continue to cover the subject of Garland's bike friendless, we will also strive to reveal things about Garland many may not even know. We want to stay as informative as possible on all existing and future developments for bicycles in this city, as well as to help to define and promote it's cultural and social identity. Stay tuned for more related bicycle documentaries about Garland as we find new routes to explore.

Troopers say the vehicle ran off the road, hit several mailboxes, flipped over and caught fire.
Steve Gee, 21, was transported to the hospital with serious injuries, according to troopers.
Troopers say speed was likely a factor as the vehicle was going too fast around a curve.

Easy Chocolate Mousse
This chocolate mousse recipe is easy to make and delicious. Rich, silky, and smooth, this chocolate mousse is pretty to serve, and a treat to eat.
Easy Chocolate Mousse
Chocolate Mousse! Mousse au chocolaté! However you want to say it, it's divine. I used to be afraid to make it. I don't know why it scared me, it just seemed like a dessert you only should eat in Paris or at fine parties, not a dessert you make at home.
Well, I decided to be brave and give it a try and guess what? It's not scary at all! This chocolate mousse recipe is actually really easy, almost too easy! Now, I know I can make chocolate mousse at home. This could be dangerous.
Date Night or Any Night Chocolate Mousse
I made this dessert for date night and we both loved it! You can get all romantic and share a mousse, but I wanted my own. I didn't want to share..ha!
The chocolate mousse is rich, silky, and smooth. I topped it off with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. It is pretty to serve and a treat to eat!
You can't go wrong with this classic French dessert…and chocolate is always a good idea!
Get date night on your calendar! And I promise, you don't want to miss out on this Easy Chocolate Mousse…and yes, it really is easy!
Easy Chocolate Mousse
Yield: Serves 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 3 hours 15 minutes (mostly chilling time)
- 7 oz bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons water
- 4 large eggs, at room temperature, separated
- Pinch of coarse salt
- Combine the chocolate and water in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Heat until the chocolate is almost completely melted, stirring occasionally. Remove the bowl from the heat and stir until the mixture is smooth. Set aside and let cool to near room temperature.
- In a clean, dry bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the egg whites and the salt. Whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. They should be thick and smooth.
- Stir the egg yolks into the cooled chocolate mixture. Add one third of the whipped egg whites to the bowl with the chocolate and fold gently to lighten up the mixture. Fold in the remaining egg whites gently with a spatula just until no visible streaks are left.
- Portion the mixture into 4 individual serving dishes (or 2 larger serving dishes, for a romantic, share-friendly dessert). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours. Serve with freshly whipped cream, if desired.

Briefly, the Simpsonizer allowed you to upload a personal photo and "Simpsonize" it, granting the recipient a cartoon rendition of their photo transmuted into the permanent state of jaundice that is the typical Simpson's character.
After working my way through a panoply of relatives and work-associates photos, I decided to immortalize The Bard as a Simpson's character using the famous Chandos portrait.

It didn't come out too bad.
Unfortunately the Simpsonizer has vanished from the Internet, so I am unable to Simpsonize the cast of Game of Thrones...

Assemblyman John Ceretto is advocating for the construction of a new convention center in downtown Niagara Falls. As ranking minority member of the Assembly Tourism Committee, Ceretto sees this convention center as crucial to bringing construction jobs to the region, and enhancing Niagara Falls' long-term status as a tourism hub in New York.
"Since becoming an assemblyman in 2010, continuing Niagara Falls' legacy as a tourist hotspot in our state has been a top priority of mine," Ceretto said. "Currently, our downtown lacks the type of major draw that would bring tourists and tourism dollars into the city during the cold-weather months. Building a convention center and multi-use arena in Niagara Falls would fill that void."
"The existence of a multi-use arena would also lead to the construction of more hotels and restaurants, bringing in big performers like Nik Wallenda, and creating good, year-round jobs for residents and building the type of thriving economy that makes a downtown attractive to both locals and tourists," Ceretto said. "As we continue to strengthen Niagara Falls' economy, an arena is another piece of the puzzle. Going forward, I will continue to use my role as ranking member of the Assembly Tourism Committee to make sure our region maintains its status as a premiere tourist destination in New York state."
Ceretto has been advocating for the arena for months with various state and local officials, including Niagara Falls Mayor Paul Dyster and Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

AUSTIN — In the crowded GOP race for lieutenant governor, one candidate stands out as most likely to get his rivals' blood boiling time after time.
Just as he has done since coming into the Senate eight years ago, Dan Patrick, a Houston radio talk show host, repeatedly has riled his adversaries.
In debates and interviews, they've called him abrasive, self-righteous and, several times, a liar for putting out campaign material that they say mischaracterizes their views.
Patrick has pushed back and says having his rivals gang up on him shows they are scared. "I guess you can tell which one of us is coming up in the polls," he said to a reporter after a recent candidate forum.
A first-time contender for statewide office, Patrick is relying on the path blazed by tea party favorite Ted Cruz, who in his first political race beat Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst when the two squared off in the GOP Senate runoff in 2012.
"Dewhurst has a proven record of inaction, hypocrisy and duplicity," Patrick said, contending that an outsider like himself is needed to get things done in the state Senate.
"The establishment does not want to see me elected because they want the status quo to be protected. But it's time the conservative majority in this state had an authentic conservative leader."
Dewhurst and the other Republican contenders — Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson and Agriculture Commissioner Todd Staples — have dismissed Patrick's attacks. As they barrel into the primary March 4, each is trying to energize supporters among the GOP's conservative base, especially tea party advocates who favor limited government spending.
Austin-based political consultant Bill Miller. who is not connected to any of the campaigns, said Patrick was "an original tea party voice before the tea party became prominent in Texas."
"He claimed ownership of the group first, similar to what [Gov.] Rick Perry did. That's why his opponents will have to take the [tea party] title away from him," Miller said.
Most experts have predicted that no one will get a majority of the vote. That means the two top finishers will advance to a runoff.
Patrick remains confident he will be one of those heading into the second round, probably facing Dewhurst.
"We're going to be in the runoff, and we're going to beat David Dewhurst in the runoff," he said.
Taking Senate by storm
Patrick, 63, stormed into the state Senate in 2006. He crushed three well-financed opponents in the Republican primary – including two House members – then won 70 percent of the vote in the general election.
His victory in the northwest Houston district was fueled largely by his reputation as a conservative talk show host and former TV sports anchor.
Patrick said he wanted to shake things up, but he found it difficult to promote his ideas in the often staid and tradition-bound Senate.
As achievements, he has cited passage of a law in 2011 requiring women seeking an abortion to first have a sonogram. He also authored a measure that inscribed in large letters the phrase "In God We Trust" at the front of the Senate chamber.
Dewhurst's leadership has been a frequent point of conflict between the two.
Patrick said Dewhurst, as the presiding officer of the Senate, failed to keep Democrats in check last year when they initially derailed anti-abortion legislation. Dewhurst said Patrick was part of the discussions among Republican senators on how to handle debate over that bill.
One of the most contentious moment among the candidates came in a televised debate in which they targeted Patrick for a campaign ad that they said was untrue. The Patrick spot stated he was the only one who opposed in-state tuition for immigrants who are in the country illegally.
The others protested loudly and angrily. Each said they, too, opposed that. "The first TV ad in his race was a lie," Staples said.
Some of the strongest hits on Patrick have centered on his bankruptcy filing 27 years ago after a chain of sports bars he opened in Houston failed. Some creditors say they are still owed money. Patrick said he learned from his financial mistakes and has emerged as a successful radio station owner.
The candidates also have clashed over who is stronger on securing the Texas border, lowering property taxes, promoting school choice and allowing handguns on college campuses.
Target of criticism
Other senators have criticized Patrick for grandstanding on issues popular with his radio audience and tea party members.
He once boycotted a North Texas Muslim cleric who was delivering the opening prayer in the Senate. More recently, he opposed the budget drafted by Senate GOP leaders because it had too much spending. That action angered many of his colleagues, who considered the spending plan austere.
In 2012, Sen. John Carona, R-Dallas, called Patrick a "snake oil salesman" and a "narcissist that would say anything to draw attention to himself."
Carona, who has made no public endorsement in the race, also said Patrick "lacks the résumé to serve effectively in higher office" — though he recently made a contribution to Patrick's lieutenant governor campaign. Carona is facing a tea party-backed opponent in his re-election bid this year.
Patrick's most successful session came last year when Dewhurst named him chairman of the Senate Education Committee. Some saw it as a move to keep Patrick out of the lieutenant governor's race in 2014.
Whatever Dewhurst's motives, Patrick quickly raised his profile. He used the post to push through major bills that increased the number of charter schools and reduced high-stakes testing in Texas high schools. He also denounced a widely used curriculum plan — called CSCOPE — that has been highly unpopular with social conservatives.
His only major failure was a bill he authored that would have allowed state tax credits to pay tuition at private and religious schools. It never came up for a vote in the Senate.
Dewhurst may have regretted his appointment of Patrick, saying at one candidate forum it was a good thing that Patrick won't be in the Senate after this year. Patrick had to give up his seat to run for lieutenant governor.

i like to browse through tumblr websites. i always discover beautiful photography, quotes and words that warm me at heart. words that make me smile. my newest individual discovery is mike. a recovering heroin addict writing about his new life. about his new path, which he walks sober. everything is new to him his mind is like that of a child but his experiences reach far beyond the label child's experiences. normal people never experience what he has already experienced in a life time. the word normal is extremely judging and relative. it is a lie, an illusion which we feed ourselves every day. i promise not to use it anymore.
i've been thinking of writing him an email. i have saved his email address into my contacts list, i opened up a new email.. and i stopped. i realized i don't know what to say, what to write. i wish you all the best in your life? no. i thought of writing a single sentence – i admire you because in a way you are stronger than i ever will be. but i don't know him. people judge and i don't want to do that. i don't want to be that person. i got stuck, i closed the window and went to sleep. it was three o'clock in the morning.
living in a state of texas, to me a land distant just as the world of drugs is. i still have no formed words in my mind even though there is so much i would like to say. we all have our addictions. it is just the false measure of destructiveness that makes us judge others. we judge people based on what we think is right. mike's story reminded me of what i have to work on. it reminded me of what is hard for me. it reminded me of the path i am yet to walk. the path i am yet to discover. we are all addicted to something. we all let something destroy us. you are not alone.
loners usually tell people they are alone because they like their solidarity. but that's not true. it is only because the world keeps disappointing them over and over. you haven't. you got out and showed the world who you really are. something i am yet to do. i don't know you, i don't know who you are. i don't know what rest of the world is. and it doesn't matter. you are not alone. such a cliché.
i want to think of it a little differently. there is a girl somewhere far far away from the world you know who thinks of you, waits for your words to appear in her google reader. you asked people what they are grateful for. i am grateful for the little words and images from the life i will never taste because my world is different from everything you know. i am grateful for that because it makes me appreciate people as they are. as they have been.
i could keep writing and writing, showing off my affection but i am going to stop. miami ink starts in couple of minutes.
i hope you can sleep well tonight.

Today is a momentous day for lots of people in the New Thought world. At least according to the emails I received. Here's the gist of it:
Now, when you think about an all-day "Cosmic Trigger Event," what might come to mind is, say, an old couple driving a Cadillac Bonneville at approximately 28 miles per hour in front of you ALL DAY LONG. (At least that's what I thought.)
But this trigger event is a different kind of trigger. This is one that has a lot of people on guard with their thoughts. Read on from one of my emails.
So, when I woke up today, I remembered the giant UV ray. At first I asked my husband if we would need extra sunscreen (SPF 1,000,000?).
Then I realized that I was in kind of a low mood. I had had an intense performance over the weekend, and I was pretty drained. I was tempted to charge into my day pell-mell and not think twice. But then, the GIANT UV BEAM came to my mind. (A fellow blogger (and now friend) Heather Fougnier wrote to me from a conference in Malibu where she is teaching. She said that Louise Hay is in attendance and that today would be a day of major meditation and intention.)
So, instead of allowing my mood to dictate my day, I meditated and did my index cards and began the day in a better place. I even listened to Louise Hay while I was working out. (You know, just in case, right?)
But then I began thinking about this. Why should this day be different from any other day? (I created my own kind of New-Age seder out of the whole thing.) If we have no earthly idea whether or not there's really a giant UV beam magnifying our intents a million-fold, why not pretend that this is happening every day?
You've probably heard the expression "You can't afford the luxury of a negative thought." (Today, that would really be the case.) I do believe the idea that collapsing into negativity is kind of a luxury, and not a good luxury. Do I live my every moment by it? Not always. I have occasional negativity binges the same way I used to chow down on Oreos and pizza (and Cracker Jack and ice cream and Cheetoes).
But the moment I recognize that I'm doing it and become clear that negativity is kind of a luxury and a default, I find my way back somehow. Then I look around and say, "Oo. Now, that couldn't have been good for anyone!"
And that's what the giant UV beam does for me today. I look around and think, "Hey. Who knows? Why don't I shift out of this worry and fear? Today, I'm a happy camper and wild abundance and trees and clean water and happy positive people and good things are right here." (I'm wondering if the people involved in Steve Pavlina's Million Dollar Experiment are now attracting a million Million dollars?)
UV Beams Everyday!
So why not play that game every day? Why not send yourself an email every morning with that same idea? If the Law of Attraction is true, then it matters just as much. Make it High Stakes Positive Thinking. Not so that you'll run around in a place of fear. But so that you'll live in a place of power. You'll say, "Whoa! Do I really want that thought amplified a million times in my life? No way!" And you'll change it. You'll be more aware.
Everyday Rituals
Before I perform, I do a ritual in my dressing room. I get silent. I call on the divine committee. (I call it a committee because a friend of mine who had been in NA laughed for about an hour when I told him all the beings I called forth when I pray. He said, "Hello? Christine! I think you've got your bases covered. You don't need a whole committee!" I told him I didn't want any of the deities to feel left out.) I ask for my highest self to be the performer that night. I find my center. I breathe. And I simply know that the night is not about me. It's about a higher place than that. Then I walk out and play. It's not a long process. But it's a powerful one.
So, at one time I thought, Why don't I do that everyday? Why is it just the stage that should call forth that level of clarity from me? Why not ask the Little Me to move to the side every morning?
So, now when I do this ritual, I operate from such a better space. I always notice the difference. Always. Try it. Begin your day setting that level of intent.
Remember You're Not a Victim
Be it a Giant UV Beam or a theatre filled with people, I am wary of anything that makes you think that some giant outside thing will "happen to you." You really do have the reigns in every situation, even if it's simply the translation of the event. Mercury Retrograde, for instance, has never been an issue for me. (I bought my last house during Mercury Retrograde, and nothing went wrong. I loved my house.) In the case of the giant UV Ray, however, you do have a choice in that you are the thinker of your thoughts all day long.
So, for this October 17th Cosmic Trigger Event, I say, let's make the most of it. Use it. Amplify your thoughts a million-fold everyday. Begin your day knowing that you have that kind of power.

Charlie Puth has apologized after slamming Justin Bieber in a foul-mouthed outburst during his concert in Dallas, Texas, on Friday (11Mar16).
Following a rendition of his track We Don't Talk Anymore, which features Justin's ex Selena Gomez on vocals, Charlie shouted, "F**k you, Justin Bieber," to a shocked audience.
Now, the See You Again hitmaker has tried to make amends by posting a lengthy apology message on Twitter.com. However, he later deleted the tweets.
"I am a massive @JustinBieber fan and I have nothing but great things to say about him and his music always," Charlie reportedly wrote in a series of messages on Saturday (12Mar16). "Please find it in your heart to forgive me and know that this is coming from a real place. I am not a mean person.
"I am very sorry if I offended anyone, and mostly to Justin. His work is inspiring. I would never intentionally or publicly bash him. I was bullied where things like this were said to me all the time, pretty much all of my life until the end of high school."
HollywoodLife.com also report that Charlie wrote a lengthier apology that he posted later on the social media site, which read: "Hi everyone. I wanted to clear something up. I tweeted this early this morning, but I thought it would be much more effective if I wrote this in one cohesive note rather than a series of tweets.
"What I said at the concert about Justin last night was meant to be lighthearted, and sounded so in my mind at the time, but of course hearing it now it sounded mean and uncalled for, which it was.
"My goal in life as a person and as an artists is to never exchange hateful vernacular between other artists, or anyone for that matter. The thematic and lyrical element that lies in the song I wrote entitled 'We Don't Talk Anymore' hits very close to home for me and I let my emotions get the best of me last night mid song.
"I hope his fans can accept my apology and realize that people do make mistakes and that I wouldn't be human if I didn't make any. I deeply apologize for my words (sic)."
Both apologies have now been deleted, and no mention of the outburst is featured on his Twitter feed. Charlie, who performed See You Again at the Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday with Wiz Khalifa, later thanked his fans after he won the Favorite Collaboration honor for the song.
"WOW! Thank you Kid's Choice. What an honor (sic)! Thank you," he wrote. "It's crazy that I grew up watching The Kids Choice Awards eating pizza on my couch and now I just played on it with Wiz."

tim expects them to be american or something like hes completely cut off from the normal experience of london life. theres two moments that stick in my mind. one is tim trying to cuss kano for wearing 'tight' jeans and kano patiently explaining that that's how people in London dress, fitted things, smart, this would have been early '00s i suppose, but pre-skinny jeans.
the other one was tim trying to browbeat trim into saying he was his favourite whiteboy and trim explaining that he has a lot of white mates and tim is not his favourite whiteboy.
"i grew up on the isle of dogs. it's a predominantly white area"
that disconnct between reality of peoples lives and tims fantasies always made for good comedy.

It completely sucks when your work day is filled with stress. And your job title doesn't matter – we all have days that completely suck the life from us. It doesn't matter if you're self-employed or a corporate titan. We all have days from hell where we just want to run away…
Here're a few eye-opening statistics from Office Vibe that explain how much work stress we have on a daily basis:
- Annual costs to employers for stress-related health care and sick days is over300 billion
- 77% of workers have physical symptoms and 73% have mental symptoms from stress
- 33% of workers believe they are living with extreme stress
- 60% of U.S. workers are so unhappy at their jobs that they would prefer a new career
- 87% of workers worldwide are emotionally disconnected from their workplaces, which decreases productivity by 10%
Find Ways to Laugh
In the Buddhist philosophy, there's a legend of the Laughing Monk. He " was famous for handing out sweets and small toys he took from his cloth bag, after which he would put the bag down, stare up at the sky and start to laugh madly. His laughter proved to be very contagious indeed and before long all who had gathered around him would start to laugh as well." Laughing is actually considered an important step on the path to enlightenment.
Laughter and fun are also important in the workplace. Close work friendships boost employee satisfaction by 50%, while people with work BFF's are seven times more likely to be more engaged at work. You can create some elaborate games (like the Nurf Battle below) or you can just have an ice cream party. You can do something silly and dress up your karate school's BOB the punching bag for Halloween.
The idea is to create a way to laugh, even on the most stressful days.
Nurf Battle:
Ice Cream Social:
Add something silly:
Leo Babauta, from Zen Habits, advises us to make small changes for big results. He explains that:
"With each step, my mood improves. One step at a time, I help myself feel better. These are small steps, taken one at a time, with as much presence as I can muster. And they make all the difference in the world."
My business, like millions of others, almost didn't survive the recession. I got very, very good at scraping by. It wasn't fun, but it was an important lesson. We weren't the same when we crawled out on the other side. Being bigger wasn't the goal. Buying unnecessary or flashy things seemed ridiculous. Cutting out everything we didn't need to survive allowed my business to grow in new and unexpected ways. It was actually a blessing for us.
Start applying a minimalist philosophy to your business. It will decrease your stress levels and help you improve profits.
Here're a few things to help you achieve Business Edited:
- Embrace technology that helps you integrate and organize (think iPad over PC's)
- Choose sustainable and local whenever you can
- Create a leaner office space
- Choose dual purpose items
- Don't purchase "stuff" – purchase only what you truly need
- Get rid of paper – bills, business cards, etc.
- Learn to work mobile from anywhere
- Start saying NO whenever you can
- Cut out stress-inducing clients
Now it's time to get deep.
In The Tao of Pooh, Benjamin Hoff says:
"Wisdom, Happiness, and Courage are not waiting somewhere out beyond sight at the end of a straight line; they're part of a continuous cycle that begins right here. They're not only the ending, but the beginning as well."
Many of us are under the false pretense that we are working towards our best lives. Except that we're living right now and may never reach that destination. Instead, start actively creating the kind of life you want regardless of your stressful job. Sandra Pawula, from Always Well Within, shares some of her top Zen Work Habits:
Start my day by setting an intention: "May my work and whatever I do today benefit as many people as possible."
- Pause when I begin to feel overwhelmed or stressed.
- Spend time in nature everyday.
- Take evenings and the better part of the weekend off.
- Celebrate my accomplishments.
- Always be gentle with myself.
- Practice a formal session of mindfulness meditation.
The Fight for a Zen Workday
I understand that it seems almost impossible to achieve a Zen mindset in the middle of your chaotic day. But you'll need to keep working unless you're independently wealthy (I'm not – yet!). So the question then becomes do I keep being miserable and stressed at work, or do I try something new?
I'm an advocate of trying something different. Maybe even something that sounds crazy. Can laughter help you find a little peace in your day. Absolutely! Can you streamline your day so you're not so overwhelmed? Of course! Can you change your mindset to something more Zen-focused?
Probably not every day or all the time. But what do you have to lose?

But before all that started, I did the last few rows of my entrelac mitts. I've turned them upside-down and sewn up the cast-on edge. I did a few rows of garter stitch after the final row of triangles to make a little cuff. Now I've made them into mittens I would also like to knit a thumb onto them, but I've decided to knit the second one first and then see how much tarn I have left. I've wound the ball on to start at more or less the same position in the colour series and I think I have more than enough to knit a thumb from what I've wound on, but I'm not absolutely positive...
My first 'Labour of Love' Christmas knit was a shawl for my grandmother. I sent her a rather long list of nice shawl pattern to choose from and she came up with this one: Revontuli, which, conveniently, had been in my queue more or less since I joined Ravelry. I got a few indications on colour, but not many, so I wound up getting the yarn with the longest colour cycle I could get: Lang Jawoll Magic.This is one of the yarn most used to knit this pattern, but I found it got stripey way too early. I read in the project notes that quite a few people frogged and changed from m1 to yo, so I decided to do that from the start as YO's are my favourite increases.
The pattern itself was really easy to follow and a pleasure to knit really. I might just make one for myself when I find some yarn that has longer colour cycles. The pattern recommends Aade and Kauni, both of which I might be able to get my hands on one day.
My grandmother wanted this shawl to wear in bed, but now I've given it to her, she says it's too beautiful to wear in bed and now wants to wear it to go out! That means I already have a present for her for next year: another shawl, but this time one she can really wear in bed. It's going to be so difficult to knit that isn't too beautiful on purpose...
Another shawl I will have to knit is one for my mother. She has very sensitive skin, so I got her two skeins of Manos del Uruguay silk blend for Christmas. I absolutely loved knitting with this yarn when I made my S.W.A.N. shawlette, so making something nice out of these two lovelies should be quite enjoyable!
My own Christmas presents included two knitting magazines and three lots of Etsy stitchmarkers -I can now finally stop using loops of scrap yarn as markers :) - And two sets of really nice buttons. I don't have a project in mind for them yet, they look wonderful to me!
My stitch markers were put to use right away.
My present to my father was to knit his a jumper. I had already bought the yarn in Britain over the summer so I've started it now and hope to have it finished in three months. My father is rather skinny, but he's also really tall so knitting his this will probably take an age. Because the chances of this being the only jumper I will knit for him are rather high, I wanted it to be one he's like. He chose the pattern, Dad's Cardigan, and for once, I bothered to do a gauge swatch. Lucky I did, because my gauge was way off on the recommended 5 mm needles and I had to go down to 4.5 to get near enough for it to be acceptable. Reading through other knitter's notes, I found that most of the the abbreviations were wrongly explained, so I just knitted straight from the chart, which, incidentally, are correct. The pattern includes raglan sleeves, which, combined with my father's long arms, meant that it has taken me a week to knit one sleeve. I've got one week of holidays remaining before I go back to school on January 7th and I hope to have finished the second sleeve by then. We will see.
To take a break from the intensive knitting of the jumper, I have also been doing some crochet, I gathered all my little bits of fingering yarn left over from various shawls and socks and decided that, instead of knitting mitred squares I would would crochet some Granny squares a see what I could do with those. As you can see, I've got very few scraps, but I suppose they will accumulate over the years... Scrap project are always long term WIP's aren't they?
That's all for now.
