Want to read the Jeb Bush emails?12/26/14 Blog
Jeb Bush has said he'll release them (and some news organizations have already obtained and reported on them) but the Democratic oppo group American Bridge has them for your viewing pleasure.
"[N]obody likes waiting for presents, so we're going ahead and sharing them widely for him," the group said. "All of Bush's publicly available emails, obtained via public records request by American Bridge from the Florida Department of State, are now available here. Happy holidays, and rest assured, this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to scrutinizing Jeb's record."...

Jeb Bush's emails depict a hands-on Florida governor12/24/14 Blog
Washington Post:
The new governor of Florida was feeling exhausted and beleaguered.
It was after 10 o'clock at night, and Jeb Bush was still going through angry emails. He forwarded a message lambasting him as "NO CONSERVATIVE" to two top advisers, noting that he was answering such missives personally in absence of a better system.
"Kind of scary and I am very tired," Bush wrote in January 1999....
The softer side of Bill Nelson's pit bull12/23/14 Blog
Florida political reporters know Dan McLaughlin as a tenacious defender of his boss, Sen. Bill Nelson. If you haven't been on the receiving end of one of McLaughlin's profanity loaded rants, you're not doing your job.
But McLaughlin has a softer edge.
A former Tampa Tribune reporter who landed his share of big stories, McLaughlin has a passion for painting. In recent years he's sent around a Christmas scene. This year's depicts the Three Kings traveling along a beach, a palm tree in the foreground....

Chris Christie says — what else? — Jeb Bush won't factor in presidential decision12/23/14 Blog
Not shocking that presidential hopefuls are saying Jeb Bush will play no role in their decision about running for president. The latest is Gov. Chris Christie, who was asked about Bush in an interview with NJTV, New Jersey's public broadcasting station.
"It's not one of my three questions," Mr. Christie said when asked about Bush, according to the Wall Street Journal....
Castor to hold community forum on Cuba12/22/14 Blog
Rep. Kathy Castor says she'll host community forum with the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce and Tampa International Airport "to educate Tampa Bay families and businesses on the evolving landscape tied to President Barack Obama's historic announcement last week to normalize relations with Cuba."
"We will engage the entire community and work toward positive change that America's policy shift will provide -- whether it is travel, trade or cultural exchange opportunities," said Castor, D-Tampa. The forum date has not yet been set....
George Will says Rubio and Paul both right on Cuba12/21/14 Blog
George Will talking Sunday on Fox News.
Video: Rubio hits the Sunday shows, talks Cuba, Jeb Bush12/21/14 Blog
UPDATE: Paul again took to Twitter. "@marcorubio forgot to mention his support for Obama's funding of Musl. Brotherhood, arming Islamic rebels, and Hillary's war in Libya." He then tweeted a photo of Thomas Jefferson.
Sen. Marco Rubio was all over the Sunday political shows, talking about Cuba and Jeb Bush. "Look, if Rand Paul wants to align himself and become a supporter of the Obama foreign policy, particularly towards Cuba, he has a right to do that," Rubio said on Meet the Press. "My interest here is singular and that is freedom and democracy for the people of Cuba."...
Just when you think Rubio's down ...12/20/14 Blog
A few days ago I was talking with another reporter, who remarked that Marco Rubio has been quiet lately. It's a pattern that's developed - the up and down of Marco Rubio - and true to form, the Florida Republican exploded back into the open.
Unexpectedly. Over Cuba.
Rubio has been on TV in a fever pitch, and Sunday he'll touch all the bases, appearing on Face the Nation, This Week, Meet the Press, Telemundo and Univision....
Jeb Bush confronts DNC's 'silly talking points'12/20/14 Blog
Jeb put a twist on the opposition research game.
After Demcorats circulated a list of "talking points" for officials to use against him (Politico has the story) Bush posted them on Facebook along with sermon in civility.
"Everywhere I go, people tell me how tired they are of the dysfunctional, squabbling silliness of politics today," Bush wrote. "These silly talking points, misleading and misinformed as they are, show you just how void of ideas the Democrats have become after six years of poor results in every area of our nation's business, from our struggling economy to our weakening position on the world stage....
Marco Rubio and Rand Paul fight over Cuba in 2016 preview (w/video)12/19/14 State Roundup
WASHINGTON — Sen. Marco Rubio hit first.
"He has no idea what he's talking about."
The Florida Republican was on Fox News Thursday night reacting to Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican and potential 2016 presidential rival to Rubio, who supported President Barack Obama's move to restore relations with Cuba.
Friday, Paul hit back, launching a string of rebuttals and jeers on Twitter....

If Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio both run for president, Florida loyalty belongs to Bush12/19/14 State Roundup
Marco Rubio has a big Jeb Bush problem.
More than a decade after Bush helped cultivate Rubio as a star in the Florida Legislature — literally giving him a sword as a symbol of maintaining the conservative flame — the two are on an awkward collision course over running for president in 2016.
Former Gov. Bush crushed speculation he would not pursue a campaign by announcing Tuesday that he is "actively" exploring a run and setting up a political committee that will help him travel the country and fill out a political team. He huddled with donors in Miami on Wednesday then did the same in Chicago on Friday....
Obama says Jeb has 'every right' to run for president12/18/14 Blog
ABC News: President Obama says he "loves" the Bush family personally and that former Florida governor and possible 2016 presidential candidate Jeb Bush has "every right" to run in 2016.
"The Bush family, I love personally," Obama told ABC "World News Tonight" anchor David Muir. "They are good people. Jeb's father, George H.W. has been here many times, in some cases with Jeb. And they are a great family, wonderful people. Obviously I have a lot of disagreements with Jeb and his brother on policy. But I think they have every right to do what they think is best."...

To not allow ds2 the Hello Kitty wellies he wants?(29 Posts)
He is 4. Took him to Asda today for the sole purpose of buying wellies. Recently, he has begun running around in shops, hiding, lying on the floor and singing loudly. He was warned before we went in that if he did this, I would buy a plain pair of wellies and not let him choose.
It began well and he chose Hello Kitty wellies. As it turned out, there were no others that fitted him anyway. He loves HK. On the way to the till he bolted and I ended up having to chase him around like an idiot. I caught him, put the wellies back and walked out. He screamed for about 20 minutes then we got on with our day.
Later, we had to go to another shop to pick up a few items for tea. We discussed expectations before we went in and I told him that if he was good I would try and get him the HK wellies myself during the week. He began well but bolted while I was paying, causing me to run after him while people were waiting behind me.
Now I don't know what to do. He needs new wellies but it doesn't feel right to get him these after his behaviour. On the other hand, I like 'punishments' to be natural consequences and, though it was a natural consequence that he couldn't have the wellies today as I was too angry to stay in the shop, it doesn't follow that he can't ever have them. This behaviour is new. He has been walking since he was one, no buggy since 2.5 and never had reins, so that is why I am a bit taken aback by it and hoping it will not continue (ds1 has never done it in his life). It seems a bit mean to force him to be stuck with, in his words, 'boring wellies' if he stops the behaviour now, but I would feel a pushover walking in with them tomorrow. Rain is forecast later in the week and, tbh, I can't really justify spending £10 now and then replacing them as we are on a bit of a budget atm.
Should he get the HK wellies he so desires?
Yes, everyone needs a bit of Hello Kitty in their life
Get him to do a few small tasks around the house for you then present him with the wellies.
Maybe he can have the HK wellies but he has a harness/ little life back pack on when you are out as you can not trust him.
PS I know that your ds1 didn't do it and no doubt you have parented them pretty much the same, but ime number 2 comes along and challenges all boundaries! (well certainly in our case!) You may need to adjust what you are prepared to do to keep each child safe.
If you get him plain, 'boring' willies, will he wear them? I think you did the right thing not getting them today, but to say he's only getting plain willies will, I fear, create a rod for your own back, when he refuses to wear them.
My 'natural consequence' for bad behaviour in the supermarket is more practice in supermarket shopping. I would start off with a trip tomorrow to get one thing, then out, and lots of praise if he behaves. Then the next day, get two things, and so on. Build up the time spent every day until you are satisfied he's behaving as you want him to for a reasonable length of time, then reward him with the HK willies.
If he's not behaving by the time it rains, get him some cheap black PE pumps to wear in the rain and point out that his feet are getting wet because he has no willies, because he chose not to behave in the shop. It will only serve to speed up his decision to behave!
By the way, many people find supermarkets overpowering due to the overload of sensory stimulation. Two of my three boys AND my DH are dreadful in the supermarket. DH doesn't run around screaming or do knee skids in the aisles, like the boys, but he does go into a total dream world and is impossible to communicate with after about ten minutes of shopping. Is it possible that your DS is overwhelmed by it all? If so, little and often is the way to build up his resilience, so you always do home 'on a high'.
Get him boring, functional wellies. He's old enough to not run around a shop especially if he already knew HK wellies were at stake. You have got to follow through or there was no point in saying it.
on the one hand no one actually 'needs' fancy wellies. No child died because their wellies were a bit dull.
On the other hand they are probably awesome so I agree with hidden about finding something he can do that makes it ok for you to get the wellies.
On the other other hand HK wellies on boys is a making a stand for feminism or gender equality or something so I doubly approve of getting him HK wellies.
We had a Hello Kitty welly meltdown today with DD. The ones in Debenhams had glitter on and she wanted ones with frigging dots on .
They should be banned! You did the right thing.
Get him the plain wellies. He is 4 and old enough to understand how to behave. You need to follow through.
I think you're setting yourself up for trouble later down the line - its not a natural consequence that he doesn't have the wellies - it's a consequence that you've chosen.
Try more positive approaches - tell him what he should do, praise him for what exactly he does wel instead of bribery.
When I take ds shopping, I try and give him tasks - eg help me find the eggs/ potatoes etc. I also keep it short as 4 year olds and shopping don't mix!
Start again. Talk to him about what wellies he would like. Does he want them enough to behave - explain exactly what you expect - or would he rather have the plain ones but he still can't run off and get lost.
I bought MM ones for DS2. Paid more for wellies than I needed too but he was small and they brought him so much pleasure I thought why the hell not.
I'd do what hiddenhome/Doris suggest and buy him the wellies.
For a number of reasons:
a) making him have a hated pair of wellies for at least six months is a draconian punishment for a few hours (at most) of bad behaviour;
b) a child that age does not understand (and nor are they able to take responsibility for) how short term actions can lead to long term consequences; and/or
c) there may well be some issues behind his behaviour that you're unaware of. DS has recently been DX with ADHD at 6. He did/does stuff like this a lot. I'm not saying that this is the case with your DS but you can't rule it out.
Thank you. I very much like the idea of allowing him to earn them back - it's giving him the opportunity to do that when I work f/t and he has just started school. Loves it but finds it tiring, so not sure about getting him doing chores etc at the moment. This is also why I can't take him on several short trips to the supermarket - though that sounds a really good idea and I would do it if our situation was different
Creature I do use positive approaches. I wasn't bribing him so much as pointing out the fact that, if he played up, I wasn't going to be in the mood for paying extra for fancy wellies. He loves being given tasks as you describe - he had one task on this trip as we weren't there for anything else - choose wellies and then leave. Sadly, he messed up on the leaving.
Think I will try and find a way for him to win them back.
Maybe you could have a quick supermarket trip with him. Tell him beforehand that you'll buy the wellies and one other thing (so he knows he has to be good while choosing the other item and paying for both.) Hopefully that satisfies everyone without backing down.
It is bribery however you dress it up! He's only 4.
Win them back?! Sorry to be rude but you're end up with a kid who will only do things for something in return.
I think you should stick with the consequence you have said or else he will not believe you in future when you say something. A pair of plain wellies is fine and you can always buy him something else nice to wear, like a nice scarf or hat or whatever.
Lecce, online shopping is your friend. That way you can do short supermarket visits for bread/milk/wellies and it's all good practice but less stressful for both of you.
X-post with your last one about why quick supermarket trips are difficult. Can anyone else take him this week? If not, I'd probably have The Chat and buy them as long as he seems to understand what you're saying about him bolting, why it's dangerous blah blah.
Why is HK so popular? She isn't a cartoon is she, or a book? And yet young children like my DD adore her.
She looks too much like the playboy bunny for my liking
Sorry OP, not helpful. Just a HK rant I have.
Plain wellies, draconian? I would stick to what you said and get some plain wellies. I think that 4 is old enough to understand the consequence.
Plain wellies. It's not bloody draconian. Draconian is refusing to get him wellies and letting his feet get wet. It's a v clear consequence / reward thing in my view.
Two ways of approaching thus.
1. Tell ds you will be going shopping for x item (no more than 5 items) if behaves the hello kitty wellies are his. If not you have to follow through with boring wellies.
2. Just get the boring wellies as you already warned him and he is 4 years old not 2!!!!! Has he been diagnosed as someone suggested as normally at 4 the running away doesnt happen.
Very difficult as you already said you said no. Children think in the present not the past so be tempted to start new tomorrow with option 1. Good luck x
Surely there will be some other thing coming up that he can have another go at being good for. Stick to your guns on the wellies.
Lone voice here - but it's ridiculous to stick to your guns, resort to bribery etc to get the kid to do what you want. When he's a teenager, what bribes will you use then?
You can get plain willies and give him a H K sticker to put on each time
de does a job or completes his days' reward chart. You can get plastic H K stickers with the correct glue you can economise and give him a reward he wants to achieve.
I initially thought that you needed to stick to your guns.
But then I thought, rather than just giving in - why don't you say to him that he can have the wellies but only when he shows he has learnt to behave himself in the shops.
On the next few shopping trips reinforce this by either saying 'You're still not getting the wellies because you didn't behave'. Or if he does behave tell him that he has improved and if he shows it again a couple of times he can get the wellies.
That way you won't haven given in and he will still learn to behave but he'll get the wellies too?
Creature I really don't think I'll end up with a child who only does stuff for rewards as I have been very careful to avoid that kind of approach. Sometimes though, it is debatable where stating a fact ends and bribery begins. Saying something like, "Put your shoes on as quickly as you can. If we don't leave now we won't have time to stop at the park on the way to the shops," for example. Is it bribery, or just stating a fact?
I get what you mean about 'winning them back" but I really meant find something he would do anyway and then saying it's so great he can have the wellies! Something like being kind to the dog (he worships her) or reading his school book (it's a novelty still - he's always keen to do it!) I realise I didn't explain it like that though.
I would love to get the wellies on line but I don't trust the sizes. He currently has size 8 and a size 9 we tried today were smaller!
Getting worried about the diagnosis thing now, though. Is it really so unusual for 4 yr olds to be doing this? He never did it when younger...
Running off in the supermarket is a serious danger and he needs to see you take it seriously. But I am not against using little rewards as he goes round the supermarket and lots of praise, maybe a small sticker for every aisle he stays with you and at the end maybe a favourite food or you agree to play his favourite game when you get home.
That is a fact but winning back wellies is bribery. There's a clear difference.

Shirley MacLaine, A Psychic Swinger?
So, Is Shirley MacLaine a Swinger? Well according to the washington post, Shirley MacLaine discussed her open marriage on Oprah on 4-11-2011. The 76 year old spoke openly and candidly about her 30 year open marriage with her husband Steve Parker.
Shirley MacLaine(courtesy Brow/Getty NYdailynews
Shirley MacLaine who is known for her movie roles has notoriety for being an accurate psychic as well. Shirley MacLaine has urged many people to get their lives together before 2012. From my research it appears we may be in store for something, but I also think one group will survive 2012 if there is a catastrophe. I believe swingers will prevail, and the world will be a utopia for all. To view the full story visit the washingtonpost.com here.

[quote:Esoteric Morgan:MV8yMDA3NTU0XzMzNzY2MzY5Xzg1MUQ0MjRF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1322484:MV8yMDA3NTU0XzMzNzY1NTgwXzc0N0EwNDM4] [quote:Esoteric Morgan:MV8yMDA3NTU0XzMzNzYyODAxXzVFQUIxNTRD] SolarSon, I have this thought/belief that darkness is really just another form of light energy, on opposite ends of the same spectrum. In fact, I believe it is a hyper form of light which cancels itself out, because it cannot be controlled easily. That what is call the void is not actually vacant or a vacuum as we consider it to be, just minimal in aspect. It's just pool of inertia in which things can happen, exist, without influencing what's happening in the space around it. To broaden this, I have considered this vacancy to be the 'principle' of what's called 'nothingness', a natural state which allows for the attraction and repelling of energy in a balanced way, thus creating a neutrality which allows for a freedom from influence of things that do not matter. Let's use negative energy as an example, by having an abundance of it [i]already, and necessarily, part of our makeup...[/i] That, we use this NEEDED negative energy as a 'force-field' of sorts, which naturally attracts positive energy towards the core of our being...for only opposites attract. If we were only filled with positive, we could not draw anything positive to us, could we? Is this the basis of the infinity symbol, a constant drawing in and releasing that creates a balance? Oh, and I still wish to know if darkness is a form of light, perhaps such a hyper form of it, it negates itself in aspect. Could this be how portals open and become utilized? (I wish I could expain myself better, and, have not confused the issue.) Thank you, [/quote] Conscious energy is everywhere - including that called "void" or "empty" or "Vacuum" etc. True emptiness can not exist since everything is Mental, we live in the Mind of the ALL. Consciousness can not be separated and split, with nothingness in between. There will always be the energetic band of consciousness holding it all together, going through everything and everywhere. There are also so many specters of existence that even what seems "empty" to us, physically speaking, usually is filled with life forms that are just not perceivable by us. Light and Darkness are just the two opposite polarities of the same, as you hint to. Just as Good and Evil, Love and Hate, and so on. This energy form is represented symbolically throughout existence in many forms, both in physical shapes, events and places as well as mental, emotional and spiritual forms. In the end they are all representing different polarities of the Whole, and when combined and joined together in their true form they are the Totality. We only experience them as individual and separate due to our limited way of perceiving due to our current physical prison and misled state of mind. [/quote] Thank you for expanding upon my musings on the mechanics behind energy itself. Once we understand its balance, we have the ability to learn how to use it to help ourselves in many, many ways. :hf: [/quote]
Original Message
I can not tell you too much about myself, simply because it would easily identify me in the groups I belong.
What I can tell you is that I am an active member of several secret orders, beyond the mainstream regions of Freemasonry into the higher forms of the inner order of Illuminati.
And I have come here to reveal some of the secrets that I feel are of immense importance to all, as well as certain matters that should be for the benefit of everyone and not just us select few.
None of you know anything of what you think you know - not about us, the ones behind the curtains, nor about yourselves. You have been mislead and led astray since before your birth.
The complexity of it all is so vast that it will take time to detail it for you. Thus I will have to start somewhere, and I will come back to add when the occasion lets me. If time allows, I will also answer questions some may have, as long those questions do not incriminate me or reveal for those who knows me from the inside who I am.
Being here at all is risky enough as it is - take what I tell you for what it is and decide for yourselves what you want to do with the information, or whether I am telling you the truth or not.
Let me start with a short introduction of myself, to at least give you the bones without the meat.
My family have been involved with the secret orders as far back in time I have been able to look back in any of our records. I stepped right into the same as soon I was born.
We have close ties with many of the groups and orders most of you will have heard of - and even more of the ones you will never even find the name of. A lot of the Light shines in the Darkness.
The family I come from has a leadership role and a greater importance within these orders. This has given me an unique access to information, understanding, knowledge and greatly guarded secrets that very few are privileged to.
Being in such a position is very rewarding, and you would probably not even believe all the things we oversee and are witness to - not to mention what we experience and are involved with directly ourselves. A lot of it can't be mention, since doing so would endanger my anonymity.
The reason I have decided to come here to open the lid on the door a bit, is because of both the horrific discoveries I have made during my time on the inside, AS WELL as the WONDERFUL discoveries.
Truly a lot can be said, and probably will, but for now in my first attempt at letting you in on the secrets I must detail the utter most important parts.
First of all: You are IMMENSELY deceived. NOTHING is the way you think it is, and not even close to it either. Everything is a lie, and a great hoax put upon you. This includes your own LIFE, your IDENTITY.
Everything around you have been created and put in place to BLIND you from the truth. The Media, is there to deceive you and keep you away from understanding, your job is there to keep you busy and away from discovering your true self, your favorite hobbies and past-time activities have been designed to maintain your business beyond your job to further mislead you from reality, religion is there to hide the truth, technology, science, medicine, all there to derail you from the truth. The person you love, your own family, they are there to keep you away from the truth.
The very Earth under your feet is in place to keep you away from the Truth.
That all may sound preposterous - and I can see why, since it really does sound insane.
But nevertheless, this is the way it really is.
Now this does not mean you are not "real", or that the world, or those things you see around you are not "real". But it does mean that your reality, that which is your everyday, is part of a greater design, spun around you in all its splendor, to maintain you in a level of status quo - to keep you in your current state. Compare it to cows in a field - the field and the farm they live on are real enough, and the cows take it for granted as their everyday life, yet it is still in the end artificially created for the cows to keep them there, as the slaves of the farmer. It is truly a perfect analogy since it is pretty much identical to what is really going on.
In that sense, in YOUR reality, you are the "cows", and the "farmer" is, well, call it the Great Architect of the Universe.
You can also call it the Devil, or Satan - but do NOT call it God.
God did NOT create the World. God did NOT create you. It was a different entity, far from God, in biblical terms you could say it was the "Fallen Angel" mentioned above.
With this I quickly jump through tremendous parts of History, and skip all the important bits in between. We go back to our "present" and Secret Orders - since what I have just mentioned now is one of the MOST guarded secrets of these orders.
And, at the highest level of most orders of any significance this is a well known truth - a truth guarded because of many reasons in itself, but not necessarily for Evil as I will get to in my next post.
It relates to the Secret Orders due to us being in existence since BEFORE the time of the Creation of the illusious world you live within, and the Orders exist on Earth today as the channel that allows for the connection and communication with the Divine, and that which still exists far outside the Spheres of the physical Universe you now experience yourself in.
This is all something I will detail soon, when I have the time to come back to further share some of the secrets I feel must be shared.

Great Experience
Secret Garden Save the Date Cards Overall we had a really great experience with Magnetsreet. The samples we ordered came in 3 days and our customized product came in just a week! the cards were beautiful and came in a beautifully packaged box that I am still using!

Whom My Soul Loves Save the Date Cards I was very impressed with the fact that they contacted me about some of the color choices I had made because when they proofed the card, the black lettering I had was too dark against the blue background. I also loved the fact you could move your lettering around to position it on your picture where you wanted it. Some places your order from online do not allow you to do that. Everything was perfect! Thank-you!

The Capital Region is bracing for a major winter storm heading toward the northeast. The Albany International Airport is busy getting ready for whatever this storm may bring our way. Karen Tararache has more.
COLONIE, N.Y.--Meteorologists at the Weather Service aren't the only ones monitoring how severe a snowstorm may or may not get.
Airport Manager Joel Russell said, "We ask the airlines if there's any changes in their schedules, sometimes there are."
At Albany International Airport, airline officials met on Thursday to go over their preparations for the impending storm. Airport management also made sure planes would be able to handle any possible icy conditions.
"They are not allowed to even leave the gate with any type of contamination on their aircraft, so it will be put on all the time," Operations Manager Bob Heitz said.
With close to 50,000 gallons of de-icing fluid on hand, Southwest Airlines Station Manager, John Rickman said, "This is nothing out of the ordinary."
"We've dealt with these types of storms in the past and we've learned lessons to make sure that we take care of our customers," he added.
Thirty-six pieces of machinery, including snow blowers, 30 foot ploughs, sanders and hand held shovels and brooms are all ready to go.
"We talk to our staff and we put together our staffing plan for the storm, what we expect, whether we're going to bring in contractors to assist us," Airport Manager Joel Russell explained.
And with all of that preparation, New Yorkers are still used to winters in the Northeast. So for many it's business as usual.
Officials also recommend that travelers planning to head out on Friday or Saturday arrive two hours before their scheduled flight. Don't forget to check with your carrier since some are offering to put people on earlier flights or will re-book at no extra cost.

Colorado Rockies (11-12)@
San Francisco Giants (13-9)
Friday, April 30
AT&T Park
Attendance: 37,144

(4-0) 1.53 era
S: Affeldt
San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - Aubrey Huff hit a two-run double as part of a three-run fifth inning, as the San Francisco Giants defeated the Colorado Rockies, 5-2, in the opener of a three-game series at AT&T Park.
Huff also singled, walked twice, and scored a run for the Giants, who have won five of seven. Pablo Sandoval knocked in the eventual game-winning run with an infield single in the fifth. Juan Uribe had two RBI for the victors.
Barry Zito (4-0) was solid on the mound again for San Francisco, allowing two runs on five hits with five strikeouts and three walks in eight innings. Zito is off to a 4-0 start for the first time in his career. The left-hander also earned his fourth consecutive winning decision, which is his longest such streak since winning six straight decisions from May 17-June 16, 2006, while pitching for Oakland.
"It's been fun to watch our pitching staff and bullpen keep us in games. The only time we lose is when we really don't hit," Huff said.
Carlos Gonzalez drove in a run for the Rockies, who started a nine-game road trip on Friday. Melvin Mora had two hits and scored a run in defeat.
Aaron Cook (1-3) gave up five runs on seven hits with a season-high five walks in a six-inning start. Cook posted the 10th complete game of his career his last time out in an 8-1 win versus the Florida Marlins last Saturday. The right-hander dropped to 7-10 in 26 career appearances (21 starts) against the Giants.
With the score tied at 2-2, San Francisco scored three times in the fifth to go in front. Andres Torres walked and John Bowker singled to put runners on the corners. Sandoval followed with an infield single, which Torres scored on. Two batters later, Huff laced a two-run double to left to make it 5-2. Cook retired the next two batters to limit the damage.
Colorado stranded a runner on third in the eighth. Dexter Fowler hit a one-out double to left and advanced to third on Gonzalez's groundout. Zito, though, got Troy Tulowitzki to foul out.
Sergio Romo started on the mound for the Giants in the ninth and recorded two quick outs. Mora then doubled to right-center field. Jeremy Affeldt was called in from the bullpen, and he got pinch-hitter Seth Smith to ground out to first. Affeldt was credited with his second save of the season.
The Rockies drew first blood with a run in the first. Eric Young Jr. singled, stole second, advanced to third on a groundout, and scored on Gonzalez's base hit to right.
Cook retired seven straight batters before giving up a two-out bloop single to Bengie Molina in the fourth. Huff followed with a base hit of his own and Mark DeRosa walked to load the bases. Uribe stepped to the plate and hit a two-run single to right for a 2-1 lead.
Colorado tied the game in the top of the fifth. With runners on second and third and two outs, Zito threw a wild pitch to allow Mora to score.
"He pitches well against the Rockies for some reason," Tulowitzki said of Zito. "I can't hit him. Hopefully one day I'll be able to figure it out."

text: MAGNUS February 2010 The Newsletter of Great Baddow High School Headmaster's Letter The Autumn Term ended on a high with our annual Presentation Ceremony. The evening included the presentation of academic and sporting awards. The Mayor of Chelmsford, Councillor Tony Sach, presented the academic awards and our guest speaker was Dr Paul Whittaker OBE, who presented the A Level Certificates. Sporting awards were presented by our Chair of Governors, Mr Graham Mundy. The evening was an opportunity for staff and parents to celebrate the success of our students. Academic prizes were awarded as follows: The Carol Buck Prize for special effort and achievement: Katie Rolfe The Charles Cottey Prize for service to the community: James Braddy Governors" Prize for leadership within the sixth form community: Polly Kersys Overall A Level Prize: 1st Ryan Hamnett, 2nd Abigail Atkins, 3rd Liam Messin Physics Prize: Ian Cullen Mathematics Prize: Ryan Hamnett Art Prize: Harvey Brown ICT Prize: Harvey Brown Biology Prize: Ryan Hamnett Chemistry Prize: Ryan Hamnett Mathematics Prize: Ryan Hamnett Psychology Prize: Ryan Hamnett Business Studies Prize: Tom Acorn Design and Technology Prize: Paul Thorpe English Literature Prize: Jack Booth French Prize: Camilla Loxton German Prize: Camilla Loxton General Studies Prize: Sarah McIlwain-Bates Media Studies Prize: Lewis Scoging Physical Education Prize: Lee Stopher Physics Prize: Ian Cullen SPECIAL AWARDS Year 7: Todd Sewell; Year 8: Hannah Davies; Year 9: Lucy Matthams; Year 10: Jess Neary At the end of January the school was pleased to welcome children"s author Linda Newbery, who spent the day working with our students. This was Ms Newbery"s first visit to the school and the students thoroughly enjoyed working with her. We thank the school librarians for organising the visit. Many of our Year 7 students took part in a charity sleepover at the end of January to raise money for the Haiti Earthquake Appeal. Through sponsorship the students raised over £1,700. I would like to congratulate them and say a special thank you to Mrs Law, as well as her staff and student helpers, for making this possible. A further £1,600 was raised through our non-uniform day. Thank you to the parents, students and staff who supported the appeal. Roger Hunton IMPORTANT MESSAGES FOR PARENTS School Attendance and Requests for Leave of Absence In an attempt to maintain and improve our attendance rate, we are aiming to reduce the number of holidays taken by students in term time. The DCSF has carried out studies which show a strong link between attainment and attendance. For your child to achieve their potential they must attend school regularly. Could I please draw your attention to the school policy regarding requests for leave of absence? We greatly value the positive relationship between parents and the school and we do not want the issue of holidays to create a conflict in this relationship. Parents do not have a statutory right to leave of absence during the academic year. The school will consider approving a leave of absence request only if there are exceptional circumstances, for example severe illness or family bereavement. Please do not put the school into the position of having to decline requests for leave of absence, which can result in a referral to the Education Welfare Service. We greatly value the success of our students and any absence from school can be to the detriment of their learning. Register Sweeps Please be aware that our school works in partnership with the Education Welfare Service and is committed to improving the attendance and attainment of all students in the school. As a matter of good practice, register sweeps will now be conducted and I would ask for your co-operation in following school procedures if your child is absent from school. Home visits may be carried out jointly by the Education Welfare Service and school staff if parents or carers have not contacted the school to provide a reason for a child"s absence by 9.00 am on the morning of the absence. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to discuss this matter further. Punctuality A small minority of students are late to school. All students should be on the school premises by 8:40 am. Morning registration starts at 8:45. Paul Farmer Deputy Headteacher Uniform Issues We need your support. Some students have managed to convince their parents that black "trainer type" footwear is acceptable to wear at school. Our uniform policy is quite clear that students must wear appropriate shoes. We will contact the parents of students who are wearing inappropriate footwear to school and discuss with them when they can replace the offending items. Also a reminder – no hoodies please. Thanking you in advance for your support. Mr P Farmer (Deputy Headteacher) and Mr A Degge (Senior Teacher) COVER ARTWORK Louise Aaron Year 13 For the first time, the Modern Foreign Languages Department organised a trip to the Christmas market in Lille in the north of France. Here is a brief summary of what we did that day. At 6am on Friday 4th December 2009, forty one Year 9 students and five members of staff (Mrs Mills, Mr White, Miss Wheeler, Susy our French assistant and myself) met at school. For some pupils it was their first trip to France, which was even more exciting - despite the fact it was very early in the morning. We boarded the coach at 6.30am and we set off on quite a long journey. We crossed the Channel by Eurotunnel and we arrived in Lille around lunchtime. The weather there was glorious, despite being cold. We were very lucky to avoid the rain. Students were given the opportunity to practise their spoken French by interacting with French people and asking them questions about the Lille Christmas market and their shopping habits. Five students, i.e. Amy Clark, Katie Rolfe, Lucy Kings, Celine Jennings and Hannah Davies, did really well with this activity and were presented with a certificate in an assembly. Students had about 3 hours and 30 minutes in Lille town centre to explore the market and other shops. They were able to experience French food and purchase typically French gifts for their family. We then headed back to the coach and left for the Cité Europe shopping centre in Calais next to the Eurotunnel Terminal. The students were able to purchase a hot meal there and do even more French shopping. We found that quite a lot of students were looking at French magazines in the shops and buying Milka chocolates and "bonbons". A lot of Euros were spent on the day. Unfortunately, this long but exciting trip had to come to an end. We left France around 9pm via Eurotunnel and arrived back at the school (in the rain!) at 10.30pm. We are hoping to run this trip again next year as it was such a huge success. Madame Sykes - Modern Foreign Languages Department Modern Languages Department visit to the Lille Christmas Market, 4 December 2009 I really enjoyed the trip to Lille and Cité Europe. There was lots to buy. Even if you did not buy lots of things from the market, there were plenty of shops to buy from. Anyone who is reading this who did not get the chance to go on the trip, I would advise you to go if you get another chance. Lewis Wilson 9N2 I enjoyed the French trip because there was a variety of stores in the market and elsewhere in Lille. I liked the worksheet that was given to us because it got us to interact with the French people. Cité Europe is like Lakeside or Bluewater shopping malls. There are shops to suit all needs. Overall, the Lille trip was great. Thank you to the French department and Madame Sykes. Nick Clayden 9W2 I enjoyed the French trip because we were allowed to go around by ourselves. We had a laugh and the shops were good. It was good because we also visited Cité Europe, which has good shops for everyone. Overall the trip was great. We all had lots of fun. Paige Holbard 9W2 I really enjoyed the trip to Lille, as it was a fun way to practise speaking French, knowing that you could buy something as well. We also went to Cite Europe which was good, especially in Carrefour to see how different their supermarket was to ours. I would definitely go on a French trip again as it was useful and an exciting way to learn and practice French! Laura Talbot, 9N2 living in either Great Britain HAITI SLEEPOVER or Haiti. And the twist was, we had to make it out of @ GBHS cardboard We were given 15 minutes in which to complete the challenge. By On Friday 22nd January 2010, forty one Year 7 then it was around midnight and everyone was students, thirty nine girls and two boys, came to the starting to get tired. So we all had another hot sixth form block at Great Baddow High School to raise chocolate and cake before snuggling down into our money for the people of Haiti that desperately need sleeping bags to watch a film and then went to sleep. food, water and medicine after the huge earthquake a few weeks ago. Most of us started to wake up at 6.30am. By 7.00am we were all sitting in our sleeping bags while "The Upon arrival, all of the sponsorship money we had Best..." prizes were awarded, starting with The Best each raised was given in and all of the bedding was Caterpillar (in a sleeping bag) - the winner being stowed in The Ark and S9. Charlotte Bennett! Then we sat and told each other scary stories, much better in the daylight, and then at We then had a talk about what we would be doing 8.00am we got up and cleared up the carpet of during the evening. After that, we had a spectacular squashed Pringles and popcorn, rolled up our disco with Mr Crowl who very kindly charged nothing sleeping bags and got ready to go home. for his DJ skills. We danced along to Thriller and YMCA and all in all had a fabulous time. Then, we By the end of the Sleepover we had raised just over settled down with a hot drink and a cake and £1,400. Our final total a few days later, when late watched some of the news on Haiti, during which sponsor money had all come in, was £1,709.64 for many tears of sympathy were shed. the Disasters" Emergency Committee Appeal for Haitian earthquake survivors.

Thank you cleared away, out came the newspaper and the also to the many staff who came in to make it such a sellotape. The challenge was to make designer outfits great night. for a bride and groom made entirely from newspaper! And, as expected, some of the things that the bride Ellie Grice - Year 7 and bridegroom were wearing were hilarious! The next challenge was very relevant. We had to make a weatherproof shelter for someone homeless Q. What do you call a gathering of students taking part in the Essex Book Award Scheme? A. Revved up readers! And that is what we had in the library at Great Baddow High School on Thursday, 28th January when author Linda Newbery visited us and enthused nearly one hundred staff and students from schools across the county about her recent book The Sandfather, which is one of the six new books shortlisted for this year"s Essex Book Award, organised by the hardworking staff of the local Schools Library Service. There was a great deal of discussion about all of the books, but The Linda Newbery with a representative from each of Sandfather, a "heart stopping search for the ten schools taking part in the event. identity by a teenage boy desperate to find his father" provoked the most discussion. Our own teenagers fired a round of perceptive questions at the author, learnt how the idea of the story came into being and discussed the power of the image of the father-figure built in the sand, and slowly but inexorably being washed away. Some agreed with the author that the cover of the book did not do justice to the content and that a picture of the sand figure on the front would have been more striking. The Essex Book Award scheme for this year will end at February half term, all the votes from students throughout Essex will be counted and the overall winner announced. Meanwhile, if you are tempted to read The Sandfather, here is a taster: "Hal was trying to run – stumbling, floundering, his feet sinking into loose sand. Ahead, the Sandfather walked away, sure-footed, his outline blurred against the dazzle of the sea. He was made of the same stuff as the beach; fine, glittering grains, moulded into the man-shape. He belonged here. Hal tried to shout "Wait" but the word lodged in his throat. The Sandfather didn"t pause, or look back. He splashed into the shallows, then waded deeper. The waves tugged at him, fretted and sighed, washed at him and over him. Dissolved him. Hal stood helpless on the shore. Now there was nothing to show where the Sandfather had been: only the sea"s vastness, and the long curve of the bay." Staff from the visiting schools commented on what an excellent job the Great Baddow students did acting as their hosts. Participating students came from: The Brentwood Ursuline School Moulsham High School Philip Moramt School Davenant Foundation School The Stanway School Sweyne Park School Hylands School KEGS Tabor Science College Finally, a note about the author: Linda Newbery Linda Newbery has published over thirty books, ranging from a picture book to teenage fiction. She won the Costa Children's Book of the Year Award in 2006 and, for CATCALL, the Silver Award in the 2007 Nestle awards. Born in Essex, Linda lives in rural Northamptonshire with her husband and three cats. She is an active speaker at conferences and regularly conducts writing workshops. The School Librarians CAKE SALE RAISES FUNDS FOR THE HAITI EARTHQUAKE APPEAL On Friday January 29th Great Baddow High School raised money for the devastation following the earthquake in Haiti. The Learning Support staff dressed up as Great Baddow students for the day. The students were able to give the staff uniform strikes but had to pay a minimum of 10p to the member of staff to do so. Altogether we raised £57.09. During morning break the Learning Support department held a cake sale in Link 1. Cakes piled around the classroom, students lined up outside with money in their hands waiting to give their money for such a good cause. The cake sale raised £167.52. "By the looks of it, we had a successful day." said Mrs Jones, Head of Learning Support. In total we raised £224.61. Thank you to all the students and staff who supported us. Adam Mayne 10N1 We are implementing a recycling scheme for mobile phones and printer ink cartridges in conjunction with Reciproc8™ Recycling. The scheme enables our school to do the right thing environmentally while at the same time gaining great benefits. We gain points for the items that we collect. We can then redeem these points against a range of products and services specifically for schools, which include: educational materials, sports equipment, conservation materials and experiences. These rewards will be used in the school"s day to day activities and will help enhance the overall facilities and amenities for the pupils. While we are collecting, the children will also be learning about the three green Rs – Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. We are collecting: Mobile phones Ink cartridges and toners, PDAs MP3s MP4s IPODs Satellite navigation units Please don"t throw these items away. Recycle them and help us to not only help the environment but also get some great items and experiences for free. Take two minutes and see what"s in that drawer at home that things only ever seem to go into but never come out of! Parents can help by not only sending in items from home but also asking neighbours and colleagues at work to donate on behalf of the school. Furthermore, why not ask your employer if they would consider registering their business? They can then donate their Reciproc8™ points to us. More information on the scheme is available at www.reciproc8.co.uk Thank you all for your support. Julian Butcher Recycling Co-ordinator ARRANGEMENTS DURING SEVERE WEATHER In the event of the school being forced to close because of bad weather, we will notify the local radio stations (BBC Radio Essex and Heart FM) who will broadcast this information early in the morning.

Mr C Persey INTERHOUSE NEWS The house system is going to be re-launched following a series of house assemblies that will take place in the spring and summer terms. Rather than having year assemblies, students will assemble in house groups: Monday - North Tuesday - South Wednesday - East Thursday - West The aim of the assemblies is to pass on information on such items as fixtures; competitions and events. The assemblies will be followed by a series of events weekly through to the summer term. These events will be run by various departments within school (not just P.E.). Students should check the house notice board for a list of all events and up to date scores. The new Interhouse scoreboard will be revealed in Primmer Dining Hall after half- term. Keep your eyes peeled - you will be impressed! Mr C Persey The Chelmsford Rhinos U12 Rugby Team has made it to the shortlist for the Young Team of the Year sports award run by the Essex Chronicle. A number of Great Baddow High School students are members of the team and they would be grateful for your support in voting for them. The deadline for votes is 22 February and if parents, staff and friends would like to vote they should use the forms (original entries only can be accepted) in the Essex Chronicle and Brentwood Gazette.

"No price is too high to save the innocent."
The mid-season finale of Constantine's officially-not-extended-past-the-initial-13-episode-order-but-not-explicitly-cancelled first season accomplishes a whole lot of things: it takes our hero down to Mexico, offers some solid insight into the whole "Rising Darkness" thing, revisits the disaster at Newcastle, and perhaps most importantly, writes a character out of the journey for in-story reasons that actually serve the plot! Also in general it was just a really solid episode of television, with a decent enough cliffhanger to hold it over until after the holiday break. Was it perfect? Nah. And as much as I enjoy the show, it still hasn't quite become the "must-see-TV" of NBC's catchphrase. But from the writing to the performances to the production values, "The Saint of Last Resorts" was still a high-point of this first season of Constantine and gave a good indication of what the show is capable of when it's not trying too hard to exposit at every new audience member.
[I'm sorry for the nun pun in the subject line, but I couldn't help myself so you're just going to have to accept it]

We booked last minute based on word of mouth..... and boy we were impressed! Checked in late due to plane issues , so not in a great mood, but were greeted with a smile by all the staff.

toothache's Whiteboard
Apr 15 2010 by Dr. Ellie Phillips
Tooth enamel is not white - it is really colorless. The color comes from the way light reflects from the surface of the tooth. Toothpaste companies (and those who make money from whitening) either don't know this or don't tell the truth. Whitening softens the tooth with acids and bleaches the live part inside. This weakens teeth, causes sensitivity, sometimes gum loss and is not the way to oral health! Be careful - don't get trapped by the hype!!!


text: SO beautiful! We recused my kitty on Halloween last year. He ran to us while we were finishing up Trick or Treating. Imagine our surprise seeing a tiny black kitten jumping through the bushes towards us. We took him home that night,the next morning he was at the vert getting de wormed,de flea'd and getting his necessary shots. We found out he was only 6 weeks old! Poor little guy. He's now happy and healthy and such a joy. I would absolutely rescue another stray animal. The love and appreciation they give you can be felt everyday! It's so worth it!!
