As the government shutdown continues and blame continues to spread, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is coming under fire once again from his members of his own party.
Following a closed-door lunch meeting Wednesday, Politico reported that senators leaving the meeting, who requested not to be named, bashed Cruz for leading the way into the shutdown without a plan to get out.
"It was very evident to everyone in the room that Cruz doesn't have a strategy – he never had a strategy, and could never answer a question about what the end-game was," said one senator who attended the meeting, according to Politico. "I just wish the 35 House members that have bought the snake oil that was sold could witness what was witnessed today at lunch."
Cruz, who led a 21-hour speech protesting the Affordable Care Act last week, is now calling the situation "Harry Reid's shutdown."
In response to the criticism from his fellow Republican senators, Cruz told Politico that "It seems that there is nothing the media likes to cover more than disagreements among Republicans, and apparently some senators are content to fuel those stories with anonymous quotes."
Cruz, who has been outspoken in his disappointment in many of his senate colleagues for not supporting his filibuster attempt, reportedly dodged questions regarding what he would have done if they had supported him.
"He kept trying to change the subject because he never could answer the question," the senator said. "It's pretty evident it's never been about a strategy – it's been about him. That's unfortunate. I think he's done our country a major disservice. I think he's done Republicans a major disservice."
While he's not the most beloved member among the GOP, Cruz is benefiting from a growing grassroots support that see him as a hero fighting for the average American.

Ricki Lake jumps off the couch and struts across the expansive set of her new talk show in a pair of killer black YSL Trib Toos.
"Divine taught me to walk in high heels," she says. "He said, 'Honey, I'm gonna show you how to walk in those things.' He wasn't very nice to me in the beginning, but that was the one thing he taught me."
That was when she burst onto the public scene at 18, chubby, a bit frumpy and perfect for the role of Tracy Turnblad in John Waters' 1988 "Hairspray," the original — and edgier — vehicle that later spawned the glossy stage and movie musicals.
Walking lessons from her costar, legendary drag queen Divine (nee Harris Glenn Milstead), were just one step in her metamorphosis into the chic reigning princess of 1990s talk shows. For Divine it was the untimely end of a long career (he died of an enlarged heart shortly after the film's release). But for newcomer Ricki Lake it was just the beginning.
After a few years and a few more roles in Waters' films and grittier 1980s movies such as "Last Exit to Brooklyn," she was, improbably, chosen to host her own syndicated talk show — this in the era of Donahue and Sally Jessy Raphael and the upstart Oprah — at only age 23. But the producers worried that viewers needed to develop trust in their very young host.
"They took a look at Sally Jessy Raphael and decided to copy that and put it on me," Lake says. "So they put me in a yellow 'Big Bird' blazer and helmet hair."
Eventually, Lake says, they began to realize that the look was too matronly for her age and, over time, the wardrobe evolved to choices that were more youthful.
A look back at clips of the show seems to often show her in a fail-safe black blazer or neutral top, dressed like countless other young women in Manhattan of that era, since her show was taped in a pre-gentrified Chelsea neighborhood studio. But the look was definitely an improvement.
"In her third season, former heftyweight Ricki has gone sleek and sporty, trading in that dowdy college-girl-on-a-budget look," the Los Angeles Times reported in 1995. "Now it's miniskirts, pantsuits and sexy dresses in velvet, wool and satin."
Besides changing her sartorial image, Lake moved from the edges of the spotlight to the brightly lighted center stage of American pop culture during her 11-season run with a signature mix of hot-button topics, oversharing from cajoled guests and the wail of amped-up audiences.
Now after eight years away, she has a new weekday syndicated talk show ("The Ricki Lake Show," on Fox 11 at 3 p.m. in Los Angeles), based in Culver City, that starts Monday, and with it a newly discerning approach, taken from her own life in the interim, she says.
"Like a lot of women my age, in my 30s I had a lot of ups and a lot of downs," says Lake, now in her early 40s. Divorced, remarried, the working mother of two teenage sons, she thinks women will relate to her life and share her issues. And she wants them to have some fun in the process.
"I want it to be like my living room," Lake says as she looks around her set, "and the audience is part of the conversation."
While giving her visitors a preview of her new domain, she's also showing off her new on-air wardrobe, with her costume designer Dina Cerchione hovering by her side, her hair and makeup glam squad a step away, and press and personal assistants scattered in the seats, trying to extricate her from an unnamed engagement that evening. "It has to be cancelled or it's gonna ruin my mood," she mock-whines. "Just say no."
Cerchione most recently was credited with briskly refashioning Howie Mandel in dark suits and sleekly outfitting his identically dressed, short-skirted army of model-bots on "Deal or No Deal." She and Lake show off a couple of outfits from the new show that seem, at first glance, to borrow more from Lake's past than the present.
"I love black," Lake exclaims. "I'm a New Yorker." So it's no surprise that she's dressed in a Milly black leather circle mini and the YSL pumps that show off her great legs along with a matching black sweater top with crisp collar and cuffs made of white leather. She looks trim and daytime-sexy with a bit of whimsy that simultaneously evokes downtown '80s Manhattan, rock 'n' roll Tracy Turnblad and perhaps a star pupil on the first day of school.
Later, she changes into a black Rachel Zoe kimono-style belted wrap vest over a thin cream turtleneck and a black pencil mini ("either Theory or Helmut Lang") paired with knee-high black boots from Lake's own closet. With its more workaday leanings, this seems closer to Lake's life now.
"I was looking for clothing that represents my everywoman persona," she says. "I'm not a 'fashionista' — but I aspire to be."
One reason for Lake's newfound delight in clothes is, as she puts it, "I love that I'm a quote normal unquote size." Lake's weight has been all over the place in the almost 25 years of her very public life: "I've been a size 4 and a size 24." Nowadays, she says, she's either a size 6 or 8 depending on which designer she's wearing.
Last fall's stint as a contestant on "Dancing With the Stars" was definitely a personal turning point. Paired with star dancer Derek Hough, she at first struggled with the idea of his signature athletic lifts but threw herself into the daring moves and the spangly barely there costumes, glorying in the robust conditioning and weight loss. She ended the season as one of the top three finalists, running up the highest scores but losing to audience favorite J.R. Martinez. However, she gained so much more, she says: "I really did start to believe I had become a beautiful dancer."
She's also a woman who's quite visibly in love again, excitedly showing off wedding pictures on her iPhone from her beachy April nuptials with jewelry designer Christian Evans, where she wore flowers tucked in her updo and a softly flounced ivory chiffon gown that was custom-designed for her by head "Dancing" costumer Daniella Gschwendtner.
Just back from a vacation to Ibiza, she extols "an amazing new designer" she found there and the hippie-chic cum romantic style she says she currently favors in her personal life, exclaiming, "I love teddies!"
"Very boho," the glam squad chimes in.
Off hours will be few and far between as she launches her show and, when she's not in production, makes personal appearances all over the country to meet the demands of syndicated show promotion. (In a coincidence that couldn't have been scripted, her old buddy John Waters called in the middle of our interview to make a dinner date when she passes through Baltimore.)
She's bubbling over about future style-oriented guests on the show, mentioning "those young 'fashionista' people" from L.A.-based Who What Wear, the online celebrity and trend magazine, and local vintage-guru-turned-author Cameron Silver, as well as friends she's had since back in the day, like New York designer Todd Oldham.
And, in the end, she's betting on her audience, mostly women her own age who have grown up with her and followed her over the years, hoping that "people can see that I'm authentic. And that I look good in the process."

LAFAYETTE — The Lafayette School District is creating another layer of safety to help protect students from a repeat of last month's Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy, with classroom door locks that can be locked from the inside.
Superintendent Fred Brill announced Jan. 15 that the district has decided to install 200 new locks on classroom doors to replace ones that lock from outside with a key. He estimated it would cost less than $60,000 to replace the locks at the district's four elementary schools and middle school.
The Lafayette district, which serves more than 3,200 students, is joining several others in the Bay Area in reviewing school security measures, including updating locks on classroom doors. The neighboring Orinda School District is considering switching to "Columbine" locks and implementing other safety measures as soon as a recent police review of school sites is evaluated, according to Superintendent Joe Jaconette. The Martinez School District decided this month to keep classroom doors — which already lock from the inside — locked during school hours and is also considering buying Columbine locks, security cameras and other safety equipment. The Los Gatos Union School District is assessing locks, gates, perimeter fencing and blinds at its five schools.
Lafayette's move is part of an overall effort that began early last year to revise emergency preparedness and student safety.
"What we wanted to do is have a mechanism so (teachers) could lock the doors from the inside of classrooms if that should become necessary," Brill said.
Changing locks is just one of a few steps the Lafayette district is taking following last month's mass shooting in Connecticut. Administrators will conduct a variation of an earthquake drill, a response to a campus intruder, in the next month to respond to a campus intruder, Brill said. The Lafayette Police Department has also filled the district's youth diversion officer position, which had been vacant following a retirement, said police Chief Eric Christensen.
"We are in contact with the schools about security plans and what kinds of different actions are going on," the chief said.
However, unlike other districts, the Lafayette district does not require staff to wear badges, although it does plan to tighten up its protocol for campus visitors, Brill said. The district also does not intend to change its open campus policy.
As for recent calls to arm teachers and principals, the superintendent questioned whether such measures would really keep children safer.
"It's obviously a very politically-charged issue. Are we going to have four armed guards manning the four corners of campus?" Brill said. "One of my primary responsibilities is to keep our children and staff safe. I also think we need to be very thoughtful about how we respond and how we allocate our very precious resources."

NOTE: This article has been updated with a correction to the NetSH commands. Previously I documented the "forwarding" should be enabled on the interfaces, but "weak host receive" and "weak host send" is more accurate, as documented here:
Recently we had a problem with a web applicaiton configured for SSL-offload on our Load Balancers. Our F5 Guru (Ben Coddington) recommended that we swich to a "Layer 4 forwarding" configuration. In this mode, the F5 will forward TCP packets from the client directly to the web server without altering packet content, which is just what we needed.
Making this work on Server 2008 took a bit of extra leg work, though. Here are the bones of it:
- On the F5, create a new Virtual Server using the Type category "Performance (Layer 4)". Make sure that address translation and port translation are disabled.
- Create a new F5 Pool that uses a simple port 443/ssl health monitor. You could use any of a number of load balancing methods, but I cose "Round Robin" because it is in keeping with the "simpler is better" school of thought.
- On the Server 2008 system, add a "loopback adapter" in the Device Manager. (At the root of the MMC console, right-click the computer and select "Add legacy device". It will be of type "network adapter", from manfacturer "Microsoft", and have a name containing "loopback adapter").
- Assign the load balanced IP to the loopback adpater with netmask "255.255.255.255".
- Here is the trick… you must now allow "weak host receive" on all network interfaces involved with load balancing on the Server 2008 system, and "weak host send" on the loopback interface. If this step is skipped, the Windows server will drop all packets destined for the load balancer address:
netsh interface ipv4 set interface "Loopback Connection" weakhostreceive=enable set interface "Public Network" weakhostreceive=enabled set interface "Loopback Connection" weakhostsend=enabled exit
- Make sure you have a vaild SSL certificate configured on all RDGateway systems in your farm.
That's about it… The F5 will forward all packets sent to the load balanced IP to the next pool member in the rotation (barring persistence). The Server 2008 host will receive the packet, and forward it to the loopback adapter (following TCP/IP routing logic). The Server 2008 host will reply directly to the client. Amazingly, it all seems to work.

Quitting Tobacco Makes Lasting and Loving Mother's Day Gift
Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline Offers Resources to Help Quit for Good POTEAU - Mother's Day is a day of expressing even more appreciation and gratitude than usual for mothers everywhere, especially our own and those of our children and grandchildren.Few gifts can last longer or prove more meaningful than giving up tobacco. Doing so is a loving and potentially life-saving act for both mothers and their loved ones who use tobacco, because approximately 6,200 Oklahoma residents die each year from tobacco-related illnesses. Tobacco also can be harmful – even deadly – for non-smokers. About 700 Oklahomans die each year from the effects of secondhand smoke, according to the Oklahoma State Health Department. Secondhand smoke also leads to between 150,000 and 300,000 cases of lower respiratory infections each year among infants age 18 months and younger, and it increases their risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) or developing asthma, pneumonia, bronchitis and ear infections. Thus, tobacco use and the tobacco industry that spends billions of dollars to promote it exact a toll on our state, in our communities and within many of our families.Doris Armstrong, Tobacco-free LeFlore County Chairperson, states, "Stopping smoking now betters you chances of celebrating many more Mother's Days with your loved ones.The Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline (1-800-QUIT-NOW or 1-800-784-8669) can be a valuable resource for mothers or their loved ones who are ready to quit tobacco. The Helpline offers free coaching in tandem with a free patches, gum or lozenges for those who qualify. Last year, nearly 40,000 Oklahomans called the helpline for assistance.Information on tobacco also can be found online at StopsWithMe.com.

Apps Menu Structure Proposal. I'd like to make apps menu more fine-grained by introducing submenus
Alternatively, instead of 'Office' we could use 'Desktop Publishing', putting 'Groupware (Kontact)' into 'Internet' +merge 'Graphics' to 'Multimedia':
Special entry in .desktop files determining the priority
by the line
(Menu-Priotity threshold)
-'root terminal' should be in System, -charselect should be callable from anywhere but K-Menu (plasmoid?) -kcalc should be a plasmoid I like he way desktop widgets are displayed in Mac OS X
Critisism I recieved from kde-devel@ so far: > .... submenus are bad. They do not seem very usable to me, > especially when the structure is not evident: ... so it's better to look through all 10-20 entries (possibly in in each category) before finding app that you need?
> This breaks traditional alphabetical order... alphabetical order is of small value when user doesnt know the name of the app he is looking for.
remember, the menu is for newcomers, experienced users use 'Search' field anyway.

Keeping your blog up-to-date is a great way to bring in new business and keep current customers coming back. However, it can be difficult to know what to post on your blog. These five blog post ideas are exactly what your market wants to hear from you.
1. Special Deals
Running a sale? Ramping up for Black Friday and Cyber Monday? Posting all of the details of your special deal can be unwelcome in Facebook and other social networks. Instead, send your email and social media followers to your blog to get the full scoop on your offer. By the way, every PhotoBiz Online Store comes with the ability to create promo codes and virtual gift cards. Combined with a PhotoBiz Blog you have everything you need to create and promote your special deals.
2. New Product and Service Announcements
When you launch a new offer let the world know about it with a dedicated blog post. Often the additional products and services you add to your business get lost in the navigation of your site. How will a current client know that you have something new that he's interested in? A blog post is perfect for highlighting important updates to your products and services.
3. Behind the Scenes
You can build a relationship with customers by revealing the process and people behind what they buy. What's special about how you approach your work? What's different about how your product is made? The personalities and procedures that run your business may be mundane to you, but it could be fascinating for your buyers.
4. How to Use Your Product
Is your customer experiencing your product for all its worth? Your blog can help there. Tell your photography clients how to hang photos in their home for the most impact. Show your jewelry customers which colors match with your accessories. Remind your home buyers which documents to keep handy when tax time comes around. The more value a buyer gets from your product, the more likely she is to purchase again and tell her friends. Your blog should be where she learns how to use your product to its fullest.
5. Customer Spotlight
Don't rely on third-party sites to carry all of your reviews. Show potential customers how happy your current customers are with a "Customer Spotlight" blog post. And if you serve businesses they will be especially grateful for being featured. A testimonial post on your blog also serves as a referral to their company.

text: Match 3 - Adam Straith's Blog March 20, 200812:00AM PDT Previous Next Day #6 Somehow overnight the storm of the year cleared up and it was another sunny day, from what I've heard Vancouver is still pretty ugly. At least some of us are getting a real spring break. I'm going to be honest, it would be a lot easier writing to you guys after a win than a tie or loss, but hopefully we wont have to wait too much longer.... Today's game was a classic tale of two halves. Whatever team had the wind at their back seemed to get the success. In the first half, we were faced with tons of pressure. It was a battle trying to relieve the pressure because the wind would blow the ball right back into our faces. In the second half though, we turned the momentum to our side and put them under quite a bit of pressure. It was good to see the team unite and fight back to get a result, it was a good showcase of our teams character. It wasn't the prettiest game, but it had a lot of heart. After the game some of the boys had the chance to spend some time with their families. It was very nice to be able to get away from the stress of the tournament for a couple of hours and spend time with my family, gave me time to unwind and kick back a little. The boys who's families didn't come down all went to Pizza Hut Park to watch a couple of the feature games of the day: Chivas vs Benfica, which ended up 2-2 and Leicester City vs Sau Paulo, which ended up 3-1 for the English boys. Later, we rendezvoused back at the hotel, everyone with their own stories of what they did all day. Tomorrow is another day off for us, We'll have to see what the Coaches have planned. Until tomorrow.... have a good one.
