Police evacuate train after man locks himself in toilet
A man who locked himself in a toilet of a high-speed train heading for Paris has been arrested.
Police in the Netherlands said the arrest happened at Rotterdam Central station without incident.
The train was evacuated as a precaution.
The incident comes less than a month after passengers subdued a gunman on board a high-speed Thalys train in northern France as it was travelling from Amsterdam to Paris.
Train operator Thalys said earlier: "Security forces have situation under control. No risk for our passengers."
NOS state television pictures showed heavily-armed police with protective shields and equipment scanning the train carriages and searching inside.
Last week European rail operators met government officials to discuss whether to beef up train security in the European Union.
The consensus from those talks was that no disproportionate and costly security action should be taken that would hinder high-speed international rail traffic in the European Union.
This means it is unlikely that metal detectors would be installed in European stations and that passenger information would not be systematically collected.
Police said in tweets that the arrest went off without incident, although the man was taken to hospital because he had hyperventilated after his arrest, and one officer was hurt when he was bitten by a police dog.
Police were searching the train and going through a backpack they believe belonged to the man.
Rail services to and from Rotterdam were severely disrupted, rail authorities said.
Thalys said it was allowing passengers to cancel or postpone journeys without charge.

Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav sacked his uncle Shivpal Yadav from Uttar Pradesh Cabinet for the second time on 23 October, further fueling the ongoing family feud.
Reportedly, three other ministers, Narad Rai, Saiyyada Shadab Fatima and O.P. Singh have also been removed.
According to the ABP news, Akhilesh Yadav said that he is the only heir of Netaji.
"I'm the only heritor of Netaji and now it is up to him to decide what to do next", the channel quoted the chief minister as saying.
The decision to remove the four ministers was reportedly taken in the meeting summoned by Akhilesh on Sunday at his residence. Mainpuri MLA Raju Yadav told reportes that Akhilesh Yadav said in the meeting 'anyone close to Amar Singh cannot be in my cabinet'.

Barabanki MLC Rajesh Yadav, who attended today's meeting, lashed out at party leader Amar Singh for attempting to create friction in the Samajwadi Party.
"The party belongs to Netaji. He assigned the Chief Minister's job to Akhilesh Yadav, who managed it extremely well. He looked at both the party and family in a very efficient manner. Our fight is against those trying to create friction in the party and the one person who is doing this is Amar Singh," he told the media.
Mainpuri MLA Raju Yadav echoing similar sentiments said the Chief Minister very categorically stated in the meeting that whoever is close to Amar Singh cannot be in his Cabinet.
This came as a section of the Samajwadi Party leaders had earlier reportedly alleged that Amar Singh after coming back to the party was misinforming Mulayam Singh Yadav about the people and misleading him.
They also reportedly alleged that Amar Singh was making desperate attempts to portray Akhilesh as weak and prevent the Samajwadi Party from coming back to power.
The Chief Minister's action comes hours after Samajwadi Party general secretary Ram Gopal Yadav wrote a letter to party leaders to rally behind the former, thereby adding a major twist to the entire family tussle.
Also Read:Yadav family feud won't cause Samajwadi Party split, knew Amar Singh would hurt party: Azam Khan
Akhilesh met his father and Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav prior to today's meeting.
Reports suggest that the conversation between the father and son mostly revolved around Ram Gopal Yadav's letter to the party workers asking them to stand behind his nephew.
In his one-page letter, Ram Gopal stated that the Samajwadi Party would yet again form the government in Uttar Pradesh under Akhilesh's leadership.
He asked the party workers to remain alert and positive and not get swayed by all the 'negativities' surrounding the party.
Ram Gopal also said that there are some people within the party who are misleading the public ahead of the 2017 assembly polls.
He said that those behind his nephew were those who sacrificed their life and blood for the party while others were misusing their position for ulterior motives.
Warning the Chief Minister's critics, Ram Gopal further said that they would be expelled if they do not follow the party high command's order.
Today's decision also comes just days after suspended Uttar Pradesh Legislative Council Member (MLC) Udayveer Singh had accused Mulayam's second wife Sadhna Gupta and uncle Shivpal of colluding together against Akhilesh.

How to Stop your Dog from Jumping on Visitors
Dear Labby,
My daughter has a wonderful pup, about a year old who is a sweet thing, but has the bad habit of jumping on people. It was fine when she was a pup, but now she weighs 50+ LBS and I worry she is going to knock me, or one of the kids over and hurt someone.
I'm not there everyday, so I can't spend time training her – but I need some tips to give my daughter so that she can work with her so we can get this under control.
Worried Mom
Dear Mom,
This is a very common behavior, especially in young active dogs. Typically when visitors come to the house, they get excited and want to greet you with a kiss, so jumping up to give you a lick or two or twenty is their natural instinct. It's not really a behavior you want as not all visitors want a dog jumping up on them ruining their clothes or licking their face. More importantly, dogs need to learn proper manners – people wouldn't let their children do that to visitors, so why would they let their dogs?
Teaching your dog proper greeting manners does take some effort, but it's a very easy behavior to teach, especially if your dog already has a good command of "sit" and "stay".
I've included a couple of videos that I think provide good instructions on getting the behavior you want, the hard part is committing to the time required to teach your dog the behavior desired. Realize that dogs do everything based on risk and reward…how do I get the reward I want – in this case a pet and welcome from that new person. Is it worth getting dirty feet on them, or knocking them over? To a dog, YES – they get the reward and no risk. Unacceptable.
To teach your dog not to jump, or anything really, you want to withold the reward until you get the behavior you want. In this case, no greeting until the dog keeps four paws on the ground or stays in a sit, whichever behavior you want.
Here's the basic steps to train that behavior:
- Leash your dog.
- Put your dog into a sit or down next to you while you hold his leash
- Have the visitor approach your dog.
- If your dog breaks the sit, the visitor should immediately and quickly move back away from your dog. Since the dog is leashed, they cannot follow the visitor – so no reward.
- Rinse and repeat those steps until your dog learns that all four paws need to be on the ground before he is going to be rewarded with a greeting.
As with training any behavior, you need to do it often and consistently. The dog is not going to learn in one lesson, so don't expect it.
More importantly, EVERY INTERACTION the dog has in greeting people must follow the same steps or the dog will be confused as to what is expected. So it won't work if the dog is allowed to jump on some people and not others – how are they supposed to know? You must be consistent.
Some people like to have their dog jump up to give them a kiss, so they don't want to train them not to jump. Look, dogs aren't dumb – they know the difference between being invited to do something and not being allowed to do something. Just as you can train the dog to sit to greet visitors, you can also train them to jump up ON COMMAND. They should keep their feet on the ground until invited to give you a kiss – so don't use that as an excuse not to keep your dog from jumping on visitors.
Be sure and check out the videos below – they will give you some added tips. Good Luck.

Committing to teaching them, yes. Taking time with them and teaching them what we expect makes for a happier dog and happier parents 🙂

we always work on that front :o) but sometimes our visitors cause the wild jumping with making a great fuss when they enter our crib, it's better to give Easy a short hello than to clap in your hands and to call him with a falsetto voice :o)
easy rider recently posted…easyblog WALK YOUR DOG
We are pretty good at not jumping on folks, but we do like the surprise effect. We sit nicely, get petted and just as the "victim" leans way down, we jump and give a big kiss. It happens mainly with strangers. Mom sees it coming in our eyes and can sometimes stop it. Katie used to jump on people once and a while, but only certain types of people and it was dangerous with her 80 lbs.

Great tips for a common problem. Eko always wants to jump into guests arms, but luckily he's learned to keep his paws on the floor.
Both of the boys are put on their leashes when company visits until they settle down. It has helped so much with their jumping.

When we had our Lab mix Maggie, she was a real jumper, and it didn't help when certain people would allow her to do it, even when we told them we didn't want them to! Eventually she got pretty good though.
Sheba was a real jumper too but we worked with her for a long time and now she rarely ever jumps. You can sometimes see how hard she's working to resist the urge to do it too! 🙂

There's a dog that we run into every once in a while on the trail that is just so friendly he likes to show it by jumping up on me. He's not a little dog either. I usually just turn to the side away from him so I don't reinforce the behavior. I think I am too relieved that he isn't jumping on Blueberry to really get irritated that he's jumping on me. His owner eventually calls him away (it takes more than a few yells from her). I think I may be contributing to it though by talking to him. He usually is with 2 other dogs (non-jumpers, all 3 are off leash, btw) and because I know B is a little overwhelmed, I try to keep up the happy, mellow chatter to make sure things don't get out of hand. Is there anything else I should be doing? Maybe just completely shut my yap and that dog will no longer want to jump?

Great instructions! It is such a common problem for Labs, who assume that everyone adores them! (at least normal Labs do – Shyla is an exception).

Abracadabra… and poof !… No, don't worry, the children won't disappear but the magic potion they create will be testament to their fabulous imagination. Betwixt bubbling cauldron and quilted cloak, the Château's wizard will reveal all his many secrets as well as the fascinating history of Aigle's prime historic monument.
In Aigle Château's majestic courtyard, the Square Tower is already a daunting sight. But when you add a real live wizard to the mix the children are doubly awestruck. It's an awfully long climb up the 180 steps to the top of the tower but once at the top, the doors to the laboratory finally open.
For the impetuous, making a magic potion is no piece of cake. The children need to smell, to mix and even to call upon the wizard's magic powers to produce an elixir. Watch out for a big bang ! It's not uncommon to see smoke pouring out of the grand tower.
And while the kids are enjoying themselves, Mum and Dad can take time out to visit the Château and its vine and wine museum or make the most of some precious free time relaxing on the Pinte du Paradis restaurant terrace.

Movie Mistakes
James Marsden on
Kitty Galore
Published July 29, 2010 in
Movie Interviews
By Fred Topel | Image property of
Warner Bros Pictures
The stars of
Cats and Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore
are, well, cats and dogs. They have famous voices though, because they speak English and do all sorts of spy moves. James Marsden is the top dog, and that pun is totally intended.
James Marsden Talks Cats and Dogs: Revenge of Kitty Galore
"I play Diggs," Marsden said. "He's the German Shepherd. He's a dog that worked for the police force but was rejected from the police force because he had difficulty following orders. A lot of raw ability and talent but unfortunately his ego eclipses all of those natural abilities. He's hired or recruited by this separate group of dogs to thwart Kitty Galore and ultimately has to team up with cats which is the end all be all. That's not happening but he has to overcome his own sense of pride to work together. I like his confidence and his boldness. Again, doesn't really know about teamwork so much but he's very comfortable in his own skin."
We've heard lots of voice actors talk about the process of being alone in a booth, trying to find the voice of the character. This was the first time for Marsden. "It was an interesting process. When you're in a film or doing television and you're in front of the camera, you have a tool box. You have your expressions in your face, your body language. This experience for me was challenging in a sense that you really do rely on your voice to convey emotion, to play a scene. It was definitely a journey. Early on we had some just sort of scratch track sessions where we were just sort of finding the voice of the character. It was important to find the voice that matched the physicality of the dog, to match the energy that was needed for the animators. All of that was very new to me and it was a big learning process for me."
Cats and Dogs: Revenge of Kitty Galore
The biggest adjustment might have been playing for a scene much bigger than the little booth he was recording in. "It was a great sort of journey where we went many times all over the place to try to find the voice of Diggs. For this type of movie, you're in a dark room with a microphone sitting in front of you and not a lot of imagery to go along. We just had Brad the director saying, 'Say that again but remember that what you're yelling at, that you can't see right now, is actually 50 meters ahead of you so you need to be a little louder.' You put a lot of trust into Brad and he is the guide. It was unlike any experience I've ever experienced before and it was very gratifying to see the final picture of all these puzzle pieces coming together. It's great, you don't always have that luxury on film sets to be able to play and go here and there. You're not burning film. You're just burning time in the studio I guess."
Still, it's quite a sweet gig. "It's the fact that you can just sort of roll out of bed. Vanity gets set aside. You really don't have to worry about going through the works. I mean, I'd be lying to you if I told you that wasn't a part of it. That's definitely one of the fun elements of it is that you get to go and really focus on one tool, your vocal performance. I don't know, voice work specifically, usually it's not that big of a time commitment. You can go in for a couple of days or a couple of months here and there and just go in and play. I like being able to go in and just play. Again, you don't have that luxury on film sets, or television sets. Time is money and time's money in the studio as well but you really do, one of the great things about getting in there and working with Brad is we just would run the gamut. What didn't work would be set aside and what worked would be enhanced and embraced and then given to the animators. You don't get that sort of safety net a lot of the times when you're working on a film set. It's about we need the shot before lunch, we need this, the lighting setup's got to be this. It's all you when you go in and give a vocal performance. And there's a playful element to that that I like and would love to continue doing voice work."

Lamb printing exhibit to open at Boomtown Museum
A vintage print shop is opening this month at the Spindletop-Gladys City Boomtown Museum.
The newest exhibit tells the early story of printing, and includes old printers, photo engravings and drawers full of different sized lead type.
The pieces were donated by Tom Lamb, whose family started Lamb's Printing Company in the late 1800s.
Lamb said his family got out of the printing business in the '70s, but they kept the equipment.
Most of it has been in storage since 1996, and Lamb said four years ago his family started looking for a place to display the heavy machinery.
They received support from the Lamar University Foundation, and started a fund-raising drive to build a place to house the equipment at the Gladys City Boomtown Museum.
The museum, operated by Lamar University, celebrates oil discoveries of the early 20th century.
It was a tough time to try to get donations, Lamb said, but they were able to raise $125,000 over about three years. They put $80,000 into the building, said museum director Mark Osborne.
The donors' names are on display on a poster board at the building's entrance.
The building that houses the print shop is the first new building on the museum's campus in more than 30 years, Osborne said. And it has more of an exhibit "feel" than some of the other buildings, he added.
The museum plans to have at least a couple of the machines working for the permanent exhibit opening on Oct. 27.
If you go:
What: Exhibit opening of T.A. Lamb and Sons, Printers
Where: Spindletop-Gladys City Boomtown Museum, 5550 University Drive in Beaumont. (On the Lamar University campus)
When: Oct. 27 at 10 a.m.
How much: Free

CBS scored a decisive Monday win this week in both total viewers and among the coveted 18-49 demo.
How I Met Your Mother opened the night with 9.05 million total viewers and a 3.3 rating, up 10 percent and two tenths week-to-week; leading out of that, a Big Bang repeat did 10.4 mil/3.3 (up some 50 percent from last week's Broke Girls rerun).

We adopted 3 siblings in March 2006. They are 2 twins boys 4 yrs. old and their sister 5 yrs. old. They are very bright, smart and intelligent kids and make us very happy. We haven't experience any educational problems with them. They go to daycare and have learned numbers and letters, shapes and colors at the same rate as the other kids in their school. I purchased and have read your e-book "My out of control child" and have found it very useful. You explain to me in your e-mail the behavioral problems that adopted children usually have because of the unknown medical history of their birth parents. I have tried your techniques and procedures explained in your book, but our daughter is still giving her teachers a lot of trouble at school to the point that they don't know what else to do.
When she is with us, she controls herself or at least follows directions, but we have to be with our eyes or her at all times. We praise them (4:1), caught them doing good, and I have a ticket system but nothing seem to work. At school she is always answering back, bossing around, disrupting class and for the last 2 weeks at nap time at school, she starts calling her friends names out loud to the point that they have to pull her out of the class because she doesn't let them rest. Some people tell me to ignore this and let the school deal with the behavior at school. But I just can't seem to let that go. She knows they tell me about it every time she is been send to the office or put in time out and them talk about it like she is proud of what she have done. I feel that if I don't do anything about it she might think that it is O.K. to misbehave at school. I sit her at home to write numbers and letters and I have taken her toys, TV time and she has not come to family gatherings. Nothing works, she just doesn't seem to care about anything.
Please, guide me. Help me out and tell me what should I do. I'm very worried. In Sept. she should be going to public school and she might have a lot of trouble if I cant teach her good behavior from negative behavior.

Auburn student assistant dies
BY foxsports • September 22, 2012
Joe Bagwell, a student assistant on Auburn's football team, died unexpectedly before Saturday night's game against LSU.
Coach Gene Chizik opened his postgame news conference by announcing Bagwell died ''shortly before the game.''
Chizik said he had ''a very heavy heart for myself and a lot of our players.'' He said Bagwell's sudden death was ''tragic.''
An Auburn spokesman said the 23-year-old Bagwell was from Huntsville, Ala. Bagwell was in his first season as a student coach after working as a student trainer in 2011.
Chizik provided no details on the cause of Bagwell's death but said ''our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.''

A grand vision for Queen's art history program
I wrote in the Preface of a 1984 art exhibition catalogue entitled Age of Rembrandt: "It has long been my hope that in art history and art conservation, Queen's may one day become the Oberlin [College] of Canada, and that its students will share my excitement and discover answers to many . . . fascinating [art history] puzzles."
In the past 27 years there have been changes that make any reference to Oberlin as a model for Queen's amusing – or perhaps sad – to knowledgeable art historians.
When I was a student at Queen's in the early 1940s, the University had no art history courses, no art museum, and no art conservation program. Meanwhile, Oberlin College and Conservatory in Oberlin, Ohio, had that human masterpiece, Wolfgang Stechow, the greatest teacher of art history in the United States. His extensive background from his European education and his devotion to his subject and his students were an inspiration. The Allen Art Museum at Oberlin acquired many true masterpieces of European art as a result of his guidance. I, too, benefited greatly from his advice and friendship for many years.
By 1984, Queen's had Art History and Art Conservation programs and the Agnes Etherington Art Centre, and I looked to Oberlin as a model. Since then there have been many changes at both institutions.
Queen's has had some great Art History teachers at the Agnes: David McTavish, Volker Manuth and Stephanie Dickey and, for the last 10 years, a great Bader Curator of European Art in David de Witt, MA'94, PhD'00. Both Queen's and Oberlin have art conservation programs, although I do not know enough about Oberlin's to compare them. Certainly today Queen's has the best art history program in Canada.
I've been very disappointed with the management of the museum at Oberlin. Some years ago I wanted to fund an exhibition there of the paintings Stechow had helped bring to the College. It would have given great pleasure to Stechow's widow, Ursula, and their family as well as the whole community of those who loved and admired him and the Allen Art Museum. However, the director at the time was more interested in modern paintings than in old masters, and so he did not take me up on my offer.
My dream now is that Queen's will continue to acquire great paintings, to arrange interesting exhibitions, and to have great teachers who care and inspire excellent students. Then Queen's will be the best school in art history not only in Canada but hopefully in North America.

Motorcycle riders are at a much higher risk of being injured or killed in an accident than are drivers in other passenger vehicles. Every motorcyclist knows that, when they head out on the road, they're taking much greater chances with their lives than are drivers and passenger vehicle. One of the ways that motorcycle riders can make sure that they're mitigating their risks is by having a good insurance policy. Insurance policies for motorcycle riders are usually much cheaper than they are for passenger car drivers, so getting better coverage is usually affordable for most riders.
Assessing the coverage.
Putting wrecks aside for a moment, remember that motorcycles are at a higher risk of being damaged even when they're not on the road. Your bike may get knocked over in a parking lot, for example and that can end up causing thousands of dollars in damage. A motorcycle is also a tempting target for thieves, so you have to factor this into the equation, as well. Comprehensive coverage is usually good for motorcyclists. This ensures that you can get compensated for accidental damage and theft.
Most policies will allow you to add on some extra medical coverage. For motorcyclists, this is obviously a good idea. A simple fender bender that might mean a couple of hundred dollars in body work for a driver in a car may mean thousands of dollars in medical bills for a motorcyclist. Be sure you add this type of coverage to make sure that you have some financial resources in the event of a wreck. The wreck may not endanger your life, but a broken arm or leg is still very expensive to treat.
Motorcyclists usually pay lower rates for liability than cars. This is because it's simply much harder to do the level of damage a car can do on a bike. You may want to add some additional coverage, however, and be sure you carry collision. Without collision insurance, you may find yourself without a bike at all in the event of a wreck.
If you get in a wreck and your insurance company isn't paying up or you were injured due to the negligence of another driver, contact a Dallas motorcycle accident attorney. A personal injury lawyer can also help motorcyclists who have been injured in accidents and may be able to get you compensation for the injuries that you suffered and the property that you lost.

Well begun isn't half done
MUMBAI: Television channels may continue to bet big on newer and more interesting formats but how well (or otherwise) these programmes fare, at least in the long run, is something that ultimately depends on the audience.
A case in point is the big fight between Star Plus' Mahabharat and Colors' Bigg Boss Season Seven. Battle lines were drawn between the rival channels as they had geared up for the launch of two of their biggest properties.
Promotions (on-air, print OOH and on-ground) went on for months. Colors left no stone unturned, with the heaven Vs hell theme and all the suspense built around who would be the inmates of the Bigg Boss house this year. Star Plus too pulled out all stops, promising viewers the mythological battle between good and evil in a contemporary avatar.
While both the channels were hoping to up their ante with these big-ticket shows, the results are now out for everyone to see.
As per the TAM ratings, Mahabharat got off to an epic start with 8445 TVTs whereas Bigg Boss lagged behind a bit with 7711 TVTs on the day of its premiere.
Subsequently, Mahabharat, aired from Monday to Friday, garnering 6356 TVTs and the daily Bigg Boss getting 5080 TVTs. So while media planners agree that both shows have done well, going by its opening ratings, there's really no consensus as to its performance going forward.
The big question facing the channels is whether its shows will be able to sustain ratings and do justice to the kind of moolah that has been spent on them. Opines Helios Media managing director Divya Radhakrishnan: "Mahabharat is a very strong story and since, we know there are a finite number of episodes, the show won't be dragged. Hence, I believe that it will continue to do well in the coming weeks as well. But for Bigg Boss to sustain ratings, it will depend a lot on the controversies it gets into."
By contrast, a Delhi-based media planner feels that while Mahabharat started with a boom, it won't be able to match up with the gossip and entertainment provided by Bigg Boss. He points out: "A lot of people want to see what is so different in the current shows but however sometimes get disappointed with the execution. I can only hope that the disappointment doesn't turn into a blind eye for both the shows."
Another media planner adds that garnering great TVTs in the opening episodes is nothing new. "Most shows, especially reality shows, are able to generate enough enthusiasm among viewers. The real test is about holding their attention."
All we can say is while we can't predict the future, for now, both shows have gotten off to a great start...

Galway was ready to receive SS Athenia survivors
In the early afternoon of Monday September 4 1939, Galway's harbour master, Captain Tom Tierney, was amazed to be contacted by radio from a Norwegian freighter Knute Nelson. It was steaming south towards Galway with 430 survivors from the passenger liner SS Athenia, which had been torpedoed 250 miles north-west of Inishtrahull Island, off the Donegal coast. Many of the survivors needed medical attention. Was Galway in a position to offer aid and safety?

At no point does any one of these people talk about the quality of the product. BEER! What about the BEER?! What will happen to the quality of an australia lager is reorganized for mass production? This man is not a brewer. If you pause the video and look very closely you can see the gold coins glinting in his eyes. Dollar signs fuel his smile. He is most likely a wine drinker. Kiss good bye the integrity of yet another brewery.
As if Australia doesn't already have a lack in individuality now they are selling pieces of their finite culture! What is the cost of becoming a concubine? They will have better over seas marketing and shiny new retirement plans, but they will have live with the fact that they will always be in bed with SABMiller. Fosters has become just another notch in a playboy company's bed post. No matter how they try to justify selling themselves, I will mourn the lost of Australia's vestal brewery.
"Fosters! Australian for beer!"
"Fosters! Not actually drank by Australians!"
Not only do most places in Australia not sell Fosters but most people don't buy it where it is available. Lets be honest, it is what Budweiser is now to the U.S. It has a home country and a history but now is simply a poster child for something that is not real. They are all the same lager with different labels.
Budweiser does not define U.S.A and Fosters does not do justice to Australia. But if you are in Japan and want to be cool, you can always crack open an ice cold (and make sure it is cold enough to freeze off your taste buds) Miller lite to impress the friends. So American of you! Having a bbq? Why not make it an Aussie one? Chug some Australian Lager! Which for some reason has much the same ice cold taste as its American counter parts. No worries, its the style you were going for not the quality.
Go Fosters, become SABMiller's whore, we are better off without you.

Kane continues goal rush against Huddersfield
In-form Spurs and England striker has now scored 13 goals in his last eight games

Huddersfield 0 Tottenham 4
Harry Kane stole the show as Premier League title challengers Tottenham cruised to a 4-0 win over Huddersfield at the John Smith's Stadium.
Man-of-the-moment Kane buried Tottenham's first chance early on and, after Ben Davies had put them 2-0 up, he struck with a brilliant solo effort to wrap the match up before half-time. Moussa Sissoko added a late fourth.
Spurs have won their last four games in all competitions and extended their winning run on the road to seven matches, while the irrepressible Kane took his goal tally in a productive September to 13 in eight appearances for club and country.
Huddersfield, facing their toughest test since promotion via the play-offs in May, had boasted the Premier League's second best defensive record this season - but Mauricio Pochettino's side demonstrated the gulf in class.
Tommy Smith forced Hugo Lloris into a decent save in the fifth minute with a well-struck low drive and the Terriers showed they meant business by snapping into their early tackles. But after Rajiv van La Parra's goalbound shot had been blocked by Eric Dier, Tottenham broke forward and scored with their first chance.
Kane chased Kieran Trippier's header and was allowed a free run on goal after Huddersfield defender Chris Lowe had misjudged the flight of the ball, with the in-form striker applying the usual clinical finish in the ninth minute.
Six minutes later the Londoners doubled their advantage. Dele Alli, back after suspension, Kane and Christian Eriksen all linked seamlessly on the edge of the area and Davies buried his chance at the far post after the ball had been unintentionally diverted into his path by Lowe.
Kane then made it 3-0 with a world class goal in the 24th minute. With his back to goal and surrounded by Huddersfield defenders, the number 10 turned and evaded them all before curling a brilliant left-footed finish inside the near post - his seventh goal in a productive week.
Kane, the Premier League's Golden Boot winner for the last two seasons, failed to score in August, but followed up his midweek Champions League hat-trick against Apoel in brilliant fashion. Alli went close to making it 4-0 when his shot after a neat turn inside the area hit a post, before Huddersfield striker Laurent Depoitre gave the home fans some cheer, firing in a shot from the edge of the area that clipped the crossbar.
Alli was booked by referee Neil Swarbrick for diving under goalkeeper Jonas Lossl's challenge on the hour-mark as Huddersfield battled gamely on. To their credit, David Wagner's side did not capitulate, allowing Tottenham no further scoring chances, while the introduction of Scott Malone and Philip Billing for Lowe and Aaron Mooy gave them some impetus.
Van La Parra combined well with Depoitre in the closing stages, but the former's shot was blocked before Kane left the field to a rousing reception from all stands when replaced by Son Heung-min.
Sissoko, a 75th-minute substitute for Eriksen, sidefooted home his first goal for Spurs in time added on - via a deflection off Christopher Schindler - following Davies' cross.

Woman walking on tracks at Hatfield Station puts trains at standstill
PUBLISHED: 14:04 18 September 2018 | UPDATED: 15:55 18 September 2018
Police have been called to Hatfield Station to persude a woman to get off the railway tracks.
British Transport Police were called at 1.15pm out of concern for her welfare.
According to one eyewitness, the woman was attempting to walk in the direction of King's Cross.
A helicopter, police cars and several police have been spotted at the scene.
"Commuters are all waiting on the platform, it's a hostile environment," said another anonymous passer-by who had been waiting for a bus outside the station.
"Everyone seems really angry."
He said that the situation had unfolded for about 25 minutes.
A statement on Great Northern's website said that the trespasser had caused all trains in the area to be at a standstill "in the interest of safety".
"Network Rail response staff and the British Transport Police are on site attending to this incident, working to escort the individual away from the railway and to a place of safety."
British Transport Police said no arrests had been made and that the woman, who is in her thirties, was taken to a place of safety.
Trains are now running as normal.

Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation and arguably its largest economy, is heading to the polls. It's a good time to celebrate democracy - but also to ponder what has become of the country since it wrestled independence from the clutches of colonial Britain in 1960.
To do this, I find it helpful to consider what some of Nigeria's most celebrated cultural icons, among them musician, commentator and activist, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti - about whose political messaging I have written - the novelist Chinua Achebe and writer and activist, Ken Saro-Wiwa, might say about their country if they were alive today.
Arguably, Nigeria has come a long way in the past few decades. There have been important, positive developments in the economy and, crucially for a nation of nearly 200 million people telecommunications. Yet it's still racked by corruption, dreadful health and education systems, and deep immorality among some who style themselves as custodians of religion and politics. These issues have long haunted the nation, and its cultural icons like Achebe, Fela and Saro-Wiwa were among those who highlighted Nigeria's failings in their work.
Failure of leadership
Probably Africa's most acclaimed novelist, Achebe, articulated Nigeria's woes in his book, The Trouble with Nigeria. In his judgement,
The trouble with Nigeria is simply and squarely a failure of leadership.
Few Nigerians would disagree. The country is prolific at producing leaders with questionable cognitive competence whose warped wisdom compels them to doggedly advance backwards.
And who could forget Ken Saro-Wiwa? He was an author, television producer and environmental activist, who led a campaign against the multinational petroleum industry in his home region, the Nigerian delta, which gave rise to severe environmental damage. On 10 November 1995, he was executed by the military dictatorship of Sani Abacha, for his [non-violent] campaign.
I had the privilege to call him a friend and mentor when he was a contributor to Nigeria's Vanguard newspaper where I cut my teeth as a journalist. He also wrote a book, Sozaboy, and wittingly subtitled it A Novel in Rotten English. To many Nigerians, their country is rotten. It's like Saro-Wiwa's unintelligible tale told in rotten vernacular by a homeless prodigal son of unknown parentage, in a moment of insobriety in an unspecified city.
What would Fela say
But, let's face it, the trouble with Nigeria also lies with her citizens. The late Afrobeat king, Fela Kuti, described them as "Follow Follow" people. I articulated his wise thoughts in a chapter in Music and Messaging in the African Political Arena, a recent academic book, where I wrote this:
Fela lived and died a committed political iconoclast and constant irritant to the political leadership in Nigeria... (but) Fela was not all about challenging political leadership. He also admonished his compatriots and Africans in general for being unassertive in the face of rampant systemic corruption, and not questioning their leaders' flagrant ineptitude and bad governance.
In the lyrics of some of his songs, especially Mr Follow Follow, Zombie, Original Suffer Head, Authority Stealing, Shufering and Shmiling, Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense, Vagabonds in Power and Sorrow, Tears and Blood, Fela was critical of Nigerians who simply look on as their leaders squander their nation's fortunes.
Fela died in 1997. But his analysis and characterisation of Follow Follow Nigerians remain pertinent. These are citizens who cast their votes for discredited politicians and routinely return them to power.
The same citizens will never support the new breed of non-billionaire leaders with the potential to wheel Nigeria out of the political and economic intensive care unit. And even in the face of old breed leaders subverting the country with corruption, nepotism and inept leadership, the same citizens opt to remain docile. They swallow their hopelessness with spiritual equanimity.
But, it's also true that Nigeria still has men and women of vision who are imbued with the fortitude, tenacity and assertiveness to redeem their country from the "Vagabonds in Power", as Fela labelled Nigeria's leaders of his era.
The political messages in Fela's songs and lyrics are constant reminders about Nigeria's corrupt and lacklustre leadership. He was unequivocal that Nigerians could not realistically outsource the solution to their problems to the heavens. This, while they're haplessly "Shufering and Shmiling" in some expectation of divine intervention to free them from their predicament and misery.
Nigeria, as Fela saw his country, should not be governed by political Zombie leaders forever. That was why he recommended that it was up to her citizens to rise and
do something about this nonsense.

I don't have a whole lot to write about this evening so I thought I would drop mention about what I'm currently working on. I've been asked to write a piece about lyric writing by Jason at Little Rock Jams. I'm very excited about this article because I honestly don't write many lyrics, but it's something that I have been very interested in for a while. So far my only hit is a song called "Poppy Seed Muffin". That being said, this is giving me quite the opportunity to research and expand my own horizons. I'm very stoked.
Next on my list will be a guest post on Tam's blog, Fighting with Writing. Tam was nice enough to give me a little link love in his Saturday Sink post this weekend. Check it out here.
While I'm throwing out links, let me take a moment to share a blog I've got open in another tab in Firefox. Un1versal Sessions has successfully swooned me with its very soothing soundtrack. I stopped by to drop my Entrecard and couldn't help but enjoy the ambient sounds that loaded with the page. I actually wasn't planning on posting tonight until the music told me to do otherwise. So, here's to you Charles!
I guess that just goes to show that music can always be a great inspiration whenever we're feeling less than inspired.

Here's a thought...
How about a blog to blog project? Your post on lyric writing should generate some lyrics somewhere, right?
What if you selected a song and then I'll work with some of my students to put music to it? We'll record it and see how the creative side of writing and music work together?
