O Key of David, O royal Power of Israel controlling at your will the gate of heaven: come, break down the prison walls of death for those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death; and lead your captive people into freedom.
In the past, I've thought about today's O Antiphon in terms of the captivity that binds us, entraps us, and prevents us from the freedom that God desires for us. The coming of Christ as the "Key of David," presumably offers us the escape by means of the unlocking of these restraints or prisons, literal or figurative, of our lives.
However, this year I'm much more attentive to the first line of the antiphon: "O royal Power of Israel controlling at your will the gate of heaven."
This tone-setting introduction for the rest of the antiphon that deals with captivity, imprisonment, and freedom, could easily be overlooked or misunderstood. It could be overlooked because force with which the remainder of the antiphon captivates the proclaimer and hearers. It could be misunderstood because of the general feeling that comes with talking about prisons, death, darkness, and captivity — it doesn't take much imagination to think that some might see God's controlling the gate of heaven at will as arbitrary and threatening.
This is not my sense of the opening line. That God controls the gate of heaven, as it is described, at will suggests to me that what we might likely fear — an arbitrary, spiteful, or vindictive God/Gatekeeper — is not at all the occupier of that position. In fact, what God has revealed about God's self to us over the course of human history, what is contained in Scripture and experienced in the Christ event, really rejects this sort of caricature of the almighty hall monitor.
I see a God who desires that all people and all of creation return to their source — God. Creation does a pretty good job on its own being what it truly is. In other words, blades of grass or puppies have a difficult time sinning because they aren't in the business of trying to be something that they're not.
We humans, however, make that a full-time job.
What God really desires from us is that we live to the fullest the lives we were created to live, individually loved into being, uniquely and particularly cared-for from all eternity. Yet, this is not how we live. We live out of fear, out of a desire for power or control, out of a sense of our own best interest over against that of anybody (or everybody) else.
What God really desires, it would seem to me, is that all come through the "gate of heaven" and escape the prison, the darkness, and the shadow of death that ensnares us in the fear of facing ourselves, others, and God simply as we are.
To say that Christ, the key of David, controls the gates at will suggests that it is "Thy Will" that is done, not our own. God's will in Christ is to care for all people and welcome home the prodigal son, the woman at the well, the lame, the blind, the unholy, the adulterer, the cheater, the sinner, all people. Thank God that it is Thy Will by which the gate of heaven is controlled and not according to our will.
That this might be the will of God, the desire for all to be themselves in right relationship with others, creation, and God, means to live in the freedom mentioned at the end of the antiphon. The prison is of our own making. The key to the chains is living as we are supposed to live in God's eyes. The freedom comes with making God's will "on earth as it is in heaven."

Upscale Marriott Close to Downtown Minneapolis
Minneapolis is known as the "City of Lakes" and "Mill City"—two nicknames that neatly encapsulate Minneapolis's personality. The city boasts more than 20 lakes and a multitude of public parks, but it's also home to the fifth-largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in the country. Located in the green suburb of St. Louis Park (about 10 minutes from downtown), the Minneapolis Marriott West is ideally situated to let guests experience the city's natural beauty as well as its business side. Here you'll be close to the enormous Lake Minnetonka and the headquarters of General Mills, Target, and Cargill.
Under the hotel lobby's soaring atrium ceiling, you'll find polished marble floors and modern decor, such as sleek velvet sofas and minimalist wall displays. This chic theme extends to king and two-queen guest rooms, which are decorated in shades of red and gold. For dinner, head to Kip's Authentic Irish Pub and Restaurant, where classic Irish favorites, such as bangers and mash, are featured alongside Guinness-braised beef short ribs and Lakeland pan-seared walleye. You can wash it all down with a brew from the extensive Irish beer list. In the morning, recharge at the Caribou Coffee outpost onsite before heading out to explore the city.
Greater Minneapolis, Minnesota: Suburban Shopping and Museums Close to the City
The Minneapolis Marriott West is located in St. Louis Park, a suburb just west of the city. While it only takes a few minutes to drive into Minneapolis, there's plenty to do in the immediate vicinity. You'll be close to Ridgedale Center, a major suburban shopping mall, as well as The Shops at West End, a large outdoor retail and dining complex. Nearby, The Museum of Broadcasting holds an extensive collection of antique radio and television equipment.
Heading into the city, you'll find a thriving arts scene, with more live theater shows per capita than in any other US city except New York. Broadway spectacles grace the stage steps from experimental theaters, and several local coffee shops and bars provide ample opportunities for post-show discussion. Dozens of eclectic galleries complement the wide-ranging exhibits at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, which showcases works such as Japanese woodcut prints and turn-of-the-century European advertisements. Downtown also has Nicollet Mall, a pedestrian-friendly shopping zone that doesn't allow cars. It's home to the iconic statue of Mary Tyler Moore tossing her 10-gallon stetson into the air.

Andrew James Elder was sentenced Thursday to a minimum of 11� years in prison for a March 2012 robbery at the Dollar General store in Bridgeton.
Andrew James Elder was sentenced Thursday to a minimum of 11� years in prison for a March 2012 robbery at the Dollar General store in Bridgeton.
Elder, 30, of Bridgeton, pleaded guilty to the robbery. He was sentenced to two consecutive sentences of 111-146 months in prison for the robbery and conspiracy charges, and 28-43 months in prison for the weapons offenses.
District Attorney Scott Thomas announced Elder was convicted upon his guilty plea with robbery with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, possession of a weapon of mass destruction and possession of a firearm by convicted felon.
According to court documents and testimony provided during the trial of codefendant Samuel Lee Gaskins, on March 13, 2012, Elder was on pretrial release on unrelated charges, and was being monitored by a GPS ankle bracelet. Elder mistakenly believed that the GPS unit was turned off during the day to permit detainees to go to work. He used that time to meet with Gaskins and another codefendant, Ciara Roxann Ambrose-Lewis, to formulate a plan to rob the Dollar General store in Bridgeton.
Gaskins and Elder, armed with a shotgun and a pistol and wearing masks, robbed the store of $210 while clerks and customers were present. The two men ran from the store, stashing the weapons, masks and money in the Ambrose-Lewis� van nearby. They then ran across U.S. 17 North to Elder�s waiting Jeep, according to court records.
Meanwhile, a customer of the Dollar General had just pulled up when he saw two men wearing masks entering the store. He pulled his car out of the parking lot and called 911. He then turned his car around, and when he did, he saw two men running in front of him across the highway. He watched them as they crossed, and saw a red Jeep immediately leaving their.
Law enforcement began a search for the red Jeep. As radio traffic increased, a Craven County sheriff�s deputy who administered the GPS ankle bracelet program realized that one of his detainees, Elder, drove a red Jeep. He pulled up Elder�s GPS history, and noticed that he had been at the Dollar General at the exact moment of the robbery. After passing this information on to fellow officers, a Bridgeton Police officer realized that Elder�s Jeep had been at Gaskins� house near the police station earlier in the day, reports show.
Police obtained a search warrant for Gaskins� house, and found weapons and masks, and the specific clothing worn by Gaskins in the robbery. The weapons were not the ones used in the robbery, but Elder is a convicted felon and was prohibited from possessing firearms, including a sawed-off shotgun.
Elder was located in New Bern and initially denied involvement, but after being confronted with the GPS evidence of his location during the day, confessed and implicated Gaskins and Ambrose-Lewis. Elder testified at the trial of Gaskins. Ambrose-Lewis has yet to be tried.
Gaskins was convicted on Aug. 22, by a jury after a four-day trial in Craven County Superior Court. He was sentenced to 13 to 19 years in prison.
The case was prosecuted in court by Assistant District Attorney Geoffrey Adair. The case was investigated by the Craven County Sheriff�s Office and the Bridgeton Police Department.

Nobel Peace Prize Winner 2013: What Is the OPCW?
The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, was launched in 1997 when the Chemical Weapons Convention, an arms-control treaty, took effect. Naftali Bendavid explains what the organization is and why it won. Photo: AP

NBA: Wife can't keep team if Sterling ousted
NEW YORK (AP) The NBA says if Donald Sterling's ownership of the Los Angeles Clippers is terminated, so is Shelly Sterling's.
Hours after Shelly Sterling said she would fight to keep her ownership of the franchise even if her estranged husband can't, the league said that wouldn't be possible.
League spokesman Mike Bass says that according to the NBA constitution, "if a controlling owner's interest is terminated by a three-fourths vote, all other team owners' interests are automatically terminated as well."
"It doesn't matter whether the owners are related as is the case here," Bass adds in a statement. "These are the rules to which all NBA owners agreed to as a condition of owning their team."
Donald Sterling has been banned for life for making racist comments and Commissioner Adam Silver is urging owners to force him out. But Shelly Sterling told ABC News' Barbara Walters on Sunday that she felt her stake in the team should be separate and that she "would love him to" consider transferring fell ownership to her if he is forced to sell.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple ( AAPL) may not have announced its iWatch yet, but that doesn't mean there isn't demand for it. TheStreet polled its readers, and an overwhelming majority of them would buy an Apple-branded watch, if such a product exists. Of the 1,455 people who voted, 75% of them said they would buy an iWatch, if Apple released such a product. Just 13% of respondents said "No," with another 13% saying they weren't sure. Rumors circulated last week that the company was developing its own smart watch, with several publications publishing various stories about Apple's potential move into the nascent industry. Bloomberg had some surprisingly strong detail, saying Apple had about 100 employees working on the device, and named James Foster, senior director of engineering, and Achim Pantfoerder as part of the team. A smart watch by Apple could be big business for the company, which has recently dealt with concerns over innovation. Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty believes the watch could be worth as much as $10 billion to $15 billion in annual revenue for Apple, assuming a $200 price point. Shares of Apple were lower in Tuesday trading, off 0.65% to $457.17. --Written by Chris Ciaccia in New York >Contact by Email. Follow @Commodity_Bull

Serious competitive business begins Thursday, but no matter how they finish the LPGA's golfers are thrilled to be back.
Golfers returned to the open arms of fans with gratitude this week as the LPGA Tour returned to Kingsmill for the first time since 2009. The 72-hole Kingsmill Championship runs through Sunday on the River Course with a $1.3 million purse at stake.
Top-ranked American Stacy Lewis and two-time winner at Kingsmill Cristie Kerr lead the field. Also among the top competitors are 2012 tournament winners Ai Miyazato, Azahara Munoz and Mika Miyazato.
Paula Creamer, Morgan Pressel, Natalie Gulbis, Michelle Wie and Juli Inkster are also set to compete.
Among those missing from the event are money leader Inbee Park and Yani Tseng, the No. 1 player in the world rankings, as well as former Kingsmill winners Karrie Webb and Se Ri Pak.
Ai Miyazato, who is Japanese, finished 9th at Kingsmill in 20009 and 6th in 2007. She is currently among the LPGA's most consistent golfers, is No. 4 on the money list and has won two tournaments this year.
"It's nice to be back here," Miyazato said. "I just love this golf course and missed this tournament really bad. The course is in really good shape.
"The greens are beautiful; the rough is thick."
Kerr has not won since 2010 and said she had a good feeling being back on the River Course.
"Nobody's looked forward to it more than me," Kerr said. "I've got great memories here and I stay with a great family … and it's just a great time. The golf course is one of my favorites, if not my favorite, on tour and I've just got good feelings all around when I come here.
"I want to win really bad. It's getting to the point where it's OK, it's time for one. And I'm doing everything in my power to do it. It's just gotta happen now."
Gulbis, a fan favorite, was among those signing autographs and getting her picture taken.
"I love this place—I love the golf course and I love staying here," Gulbis said. "I've stayed with the same private housing for eight years."
Gulbis played in the Pro-Am Wednesday and then hit the putting green, saying she felt good about Thursday's upcoming first round.
"The scores always tell, but I feel good," Gulbis said. "I'm healthy and I hit it well today."
Hall of Famer Inkster had surgery on her right elbow in January, and said Wednesday that she is winding down for the year.
"Elbow's doing OK," Inkster said. "It's not 100 percent, but it's doing a lot better than it was. I'm just going to play the next couple weeks and take the rest of the year off."
She said the River Course looked very similar to the past.
"They've lengthened a few of the holes but it's pretty much the same," Inkster said. "It's a great golf course. It suits my eye. It's a good ball-strikers' golf course.
"It seems like every day it changes a little bit with the wind. When we played in May, you could get one of those nor'easters coming through."
Inkster won LPGA tournaments in Hampton Roads at Sleepy Hole in 1988 and Greenbrier Country Club in '89.
"I like the golf courses (in Virginia)" she said. "They're old-school, small greens. That's kind of what I grew up on. I've always played well back East.
"We've always had a really good following here and in Toledo, Corning (N.Y.). We do really well in towns like that, where we're the No. 1 ticket."
Lewis, No. 2 on the LPGA money list, was a rookie when she played at Kingsmill in 2009. She said she didn't remember very much about the course, but was optimistic about this week's tournament.
Lewis has won the Mobile Bay Classic and Shoprite Classic this year as part of nine top-five finishes.
"The course is great," Lewis said. "You've got to hit the ball well; I think that's the key.
"You can give yourself some pretty close birdie putts. You've got to hit the ball solid and keep out of the rough."

Distressed family members too often exclusively focus their efforts on changing their difficult sibling, parent, grandparent or in-law. This is ineffective. Difficult family members often resist such efforts. I teach each family member how to first work on changing their own self-defeating emotional and behavioral reactions in response to their difficult family members. Once someone calms down and not gets so upset about the other people in their family they can influence other people to find better ways to live with or at least gracefully tolerate each other. I show each family member how to work on themselves in order to have a better chance of influencing others. Think about this.

Families are under tremendous pressure to function well together without having the skills to do that. I work with the family to develop skills in listening, appreciation, working more effectively as a team.In our current over-scheduled, over-pressured world, families are confronting problems they have little capacity to do anything about. We can tend to cope by getting stuck in a narrow range of behaviors and responses even if they are not helpful. A child who has learned to have temper tantrums when she is angry, and her parents who have learned to punish or pamper her, are stuck in maladaptive, non-growthful environments—'a bad play'. It's like playing the same part in the same play on the....

Coming to counseling as a family is one of the bravest and more challenging steps that people who love each other can take. Often times, an event or specific incident will motivate a family to seek therapy. Whether your family is working through a specific crisis or hoping to improve overall relationships, I can help. I will work with your family to identify patterns that result in the same problems repeating. Once those patterns are recognized, we can break the negative cycles and create new, more effective ways of coping with challenges.

That strength can be hard to find if it is covered by years of loss, pain, and/or trauma.

Families of loved ones are often very affected by those with mental health disorders and substance use disorders. There are so many questions and its difficult to know how to support your loved one without enabling. At the same time, your own mental health can take a toll with trying to help them get well.

I also work with the families of the individuals with mental health or substance use disorders in order to open up lines of communication and re-establish feelings of peace and connection in the family.

Sera puts microphone to mouth and states in booming Biblical voice:"Behold! The final hour is nigh, and those of strong faith shall bear witness to the greatness of her coming!""And I stood upon the sand of the Vanuatu sea, and saw a beast with two heads rise up out of the sea. The first head was aged and bearing an indian head-dress. The second head was that of a male, and the number two emblazoned on his forehead.""And I witnessed the seven angels who were banished from Heaven and had been chosen to decide which of the heads would die, and which would survive and repent. The dark Seraph, head of the angels, came forth and opened the seal of the holy urn. The name of blasphemy has been called to the male as the female had become redeemed and entered Heaven with great riches."- The Book of Legion, 6:66Seraphaem
First of all, Scout's real name is Janet Spencer and for all we know, she could be as Indian as my Aunt Fanny. I suspect she could be a "born again-new age-former flower child-type" Native American. Maybe she was made an honorary member or something and she uses it to sell her books and medicine bags, etc. I'm not convinced on the "aged...head-dressed" person. Also, don't the men typically wear head-dresses and not the women?
Scout's real name! I just call her granola. As far as the head-dress, can't a lesbian wear it? Or maybe Sera is referring to a ritual the F3 have to perform and it involves designing or competing with a head-dress.
The Barge Sank-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you all know, the Survivor gossip section of the Vanuatu Daily Post announced that on "August 3 - The Barge sank! Caught on a beach by the incoming tide; the pontoons flooded before it started to float. Plenty of red faces there, I'll bet!" The Barge is Vanuatu's only floating restaurant. The Barge departs daily from Le Meridien's beach with up to 40 onboard and cruises around Port Vila Bay. Chef Daniel prepares authentic Melanesian cuisine for his guests. For more information, email: email@example.com Survivor rented The Barge for two months while they were filming in Vanuatu. It was dismantled and used by the film crew to get shots from the water. When it was returned to it's owner (two days before the end of filming) it was parked too steeply on the beach so when the tide came back in, the boat flooded and sank. According to the folks at The Barge, " They certainly were a great bunch of people to deal with, their should be no doubt about that."

Gullisara Takes The Lead, Live Streaming From Melges 24 Worlds NOW!
2 August 2012
Torbole, Italy - 1 August 2012 - After yesterday's storms, today Torbole welcomed the Melges 24 World Championship fleet in style, first with a strong Peler wind from the north and later in the day with the famous Ora from the south, allowing the Race Committee to run two further races for the four qualification groups sailing in two fleets.
The third day of the event was very much a game of two halves. To secure good racing the crews were out of bed and on the dock by 6.30am to take advantage of the northerly Peler. Its direction prevents the race committee from laying two separate reliable courses and so the decision was made to race both fleets on one course for race three of the series. The two fleets were started separately but the site of all 125 boats on a single course was truly spectacular.
Having completed race three of the series the crews were sent ashore for a long lunch as the Peler dropped away and the legendary Ora began to build. For race four the fleets set up on two separate courses and with the Ora well established at the north of the lake the northerly course was able to get underway promptly and enjoy another perfect Garda race. Unfortunately the Ora refused to stablise properly on the southerly course and as a result they were still waiting to start racing as the northerly group approached the finish line. With the Ora holding up well the Race Committee move the southerly group across and took over the notherly course ensuring that both fleets have now completed race four.
In the overall provisional ranking the lead has changed but remains in the hands of an Italian, namely 2011 European Champion Gullisara, helmed by Carlo Fracassoli with Enrico Fonda on tactics, who leads the fleet by a single point from Riccardo Simoneschi's Audi Ultra supported by Eberhard&Co. Gullisara impressed with a second and first place while Simoneschi, with Gabriele Benussi on tactics, claimed a second and a seventh, giving him a two point lead over third placed Saetta, helmed by Alberto Bolzan with Nathan Wilmot as tactician. Saetta is still counting 19 points from the first race, but like Fracassoli he produced a first and a second today and now has an 11 point cushion on fourth placed Andrea Racchelli in Altea who dropped out of the overall lead.
Race three in the north group was won by Matteo Balestrero's Giogi, with former Melges 24 world champion Nico Celon in the after guard. He went onto finish 14th in race four but as he is still carrying a disqualification from race two he languishes down in 34th overall. The fourth race winner of the day (as there are two groups racing, each race in the series effectively has two winners) was American Bora Gulari aboard West Marine Rigging New England Ropes who won the fourth race in the north group. He'd also looked very good in race three but fell foul of the protest committee back ashore and was disqualified so ends the day in 30th over.
In the Corinthian Division Lorenzo Gemini's SIV Arborea, retains leadership of the fleet by four points from Marco Cavallini in Jeco Team with Oyvind Jahre's Storm Capital Sail Racing third and and Tonu Toniste's Lenny in fourth. The Corinthian Division is one of the great success stories of the Melges 24 Class and certainly this World Championship features one of the strongest and largest amateur divisions ever assembled by the class. As a demonstration that the professionals should not underestimate the amateur sailors all four boats also count multiple top ten overall finishes too.
There is still an awful lot of sailing to come in this championship. Starting at 12 tomorrow the final two races in the round robin series, to decide the Gold and Silver Fleets, will be raced, after which the discard will come into play. After that the fleet rolls into a final six race showdown for the overall titles with the winners being crowned on Saturday August 4th. From what we've seen of the incredibly close racing so far, just about the only thing we can guarantee is that there are plenty more surprises still to come.
Actually there is one other very exciting thing that we can guarantee you, and that is that, as the championship moves into its crucial final three days you will be able to follow the action live from the race course with online streaming sponsored byB-Plan Sports and Events. So tune in from around noon tomorrow and watch the racing unfold with your guest commentators Harry Melges III and Federico Michetti. Harry Melges is not only the man whose family created and gave its name to the incredible Melges 24 class, but he is also a past World and European Champion in the Class. Federico Michetti is a four time Melges 24 World Championship winning crew who knows more about what makes a Melges 24 tick than any other sailor on the planet. So join Harry and Fed from just before noon tomorrow to watch the racing unfold live.
Events like the 2012 Melges 24 World Championship are not possible without the most generous support of the event sponsors led by the Municipality of Comune di Nago Torbole and including the Regional Authority of Trentino; TrentoDoc, partner of Circolo Vela Torbole whose excellent selection of sparkling wines will be enjoyed by all; Trentingrana, whose cheese is made using milk exclusively from the Trentino area; InGarda, the touristic company supporting visitors to Lark Garda; and technical sailing clothing supplier Marinepool.

As a first time mom, I'm finding that the things I was nervous about (late night crying, projectile poop, unidentified wet spots) are surprisingly easy to deal with! I realize the hardest thing about being a new mom is feeling normal again. After my stitches healed from tearing during labor (they're not 100% healed, but they've dissolved and I feel better from that), I now feel... odd about BF.
Don't get me wrong, I want to BF my 6 week old because I know all of the benefits are worth it. But all of the baggage that comes with it gets to me at times. I've heard so many people say it's such a bonding experience, but no matter what I do, it feels like a huge chore more than anything else. Part of that might be because it takes my DD an hour per feeding (LC says she's just a slow eater and likes to be "thorough" with her meals) and eats just about every 2 hours during the day. My nipples are sore almost all the time and sometimes my breasts are sore after a feeding (but not always). Night engorgement is annoying and I don't like having to wear nursing pads everyday nor do I like having to ignore most of my wardrobe and spend money on new pieces because not everything wears for easy access.
I know all of this is pretty normal and all my BFing friends have assured me the "it gets better." And I know that what normal used to be is in the past and my new normal will somehow find its place. But I'm curious... what things have you all done to help yourselves become more comfortable with all those changes and feel overall better emotionally about BF and all that comes with it?

Resettlement prisons introduced in bid to cut reoffending
Offenders in England and Wales will be moved to prisons near where they live before they are released, under plans announced by the Ministry of Justice.
So-called resettlement jails, aimed at cutting re-offending, will house most male prisoners from autumn 2014.
There are plans for 70 such prisons, with a trial of the new system planned in north-west England later this year.
The justice secretary said the current system was "hopeless"; Labour queried how the changes would be funded.
Under the plans, existing facilities in England and Wales will become resettlement prisons.
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling said it would mean those in jail could start "working towards their rehabilitation" from the moment they were imprisoned.
Prisoners serving 12 months or under will serve all of their time in a resettlement prison and receive a "tailored package of supervision and support" on their release.
The majority of inmates serving longer sentences would be moved to a resettlement prison at least three months before the end of their time in custody, the government said.
"Rehabilitation in the community must begin behind the prison walls and follow offenders out through the gates if we are to stand a chance of freeing them from a life of crime," Mr Grayling said.
"Currently a local area could expect to receive offenders from dozens of prisons across the country - this is hopeless.
'Right direction'
"It is little wonder we have such high reoffending rates when you have a prisoner leaving HMP Liverpool, given a travel permit to get them home to the south coast, and then expected to simply get on with it."
Women prisoners are not covered by the plans and are subject to a separate review, which will report later this year.
The government recently announced plans to make every prisoner in England and Wales complete a year-long period of supervision with private, charity and voluntary sector organisations bidding to carry out the work under a system of payment-by-results.
Paul McDowell, chief executive of crime reduction charity Nacro and a former governor of Brixton Prison, said: "We are still sending too many people to prison when they could be better dealt with in the community - especially many of those serving short prison sentences.
"But putting communities at the heart of the criminal justice system through the development of resettlement prisons is a step in the right direction."
Juliet Lyon, director of the Prison Reform Trust said: "Resettlement and rehabilitation do matter but, until and unless you reserve prison for serious and violent offenders, you cannot hope to cut sky-high reoffending rates or maintain safe and decent regimes.
"Given the pace and scale of change, ministers focused on developing the justice market could easily lose sight of the solutions that lie outside of prison bars in health, housing and employment."
Labour said it welcomed the idea of resettlement prisons in principle, but said the plans were "another example of reality being very different from rhetoric".
Shadow justice secretary Sadiq Khan said: "These plans amount to a substantial reorganisation of our prisons system, and it's not clear how it will be funded. Nor is it clear what will happen in London where there is an estimated shortfall of 8,000 places.
"Prisoners from London are currently scattered all over the country, many miles from their family and friends, making this policy announcement meaningless for them."

Don't "Believe" in Bieber
Justin Bieber laughed off his bout of indigestion at a recent concert, but his Grammy lockout might be an even tougher swallow. He's one of the biggest stars in pop, and his new album "Believe" was universally acclaimed for its vocal virtuosity and sonic maturation. But the Recording Academy didn't agree, and shut him out of every major category. If there was a year to welcome the Biebs into the rare air of Grammy acclaim, this was it — but the voters were like "Bieber, Bieber, Bieber — no."
Unstuck on Lionel Richie
A tradition-minded collection of duets from a proven Grammy winner and his high-wattage pals, Lionel Richie's "Tuskegee" seemed destined for some upper-level nominations. (That formula paid off big for Santana with "Supernatural" in 2000.) Alas, the R&B veteran's Nashville turn — with appearances by Shania Twain, Tim McGraw and Willie Nelson, among others — came up empty, even in the country categories. "Hello," Richie might be singing today to Recording Academy members, "Isn't it me you're looking for?"

Hendersonville City Council Thursday night put a final stamp of approval on new water and sewer impact fees and agreed to spend $77,754 to repair a bridge damaged by this year's heavy rains. Needed road repairs, however, will cost the city nearly 50 times that much over the next several years.
Hendersonville City Council Thursday night put a final stamp of approval on new water and sewer impact fees and agreed to spend $77,754 to repair a bridge damaged by this year's heavy rains. Needed road repairs, however, will cost the city nearly 50 times that much over the next several years.
Public Works Director Tom Wooten asked the council to cover the bill to repair the West Allen Street bridge from the city's fund balance. He said they plan to use state-allocated Powell Bill funds to repair roads flagged in a study of the city's pavement conditions.
Wooten informed the board that the city maintains 67.9 miles of roads, and 47.16 of those miles (69.4 percent) were recommended for maintenance or resurfacing in the report. The total work is estimated to cost more than $3.88 million in today's prices, which have continued to rise since 2003.
Certain asphalt materials cost nearly three times what they did a decade ago, he said, and the city has repaved so much that "we're running out of curb," requiring workers to mill the roads to meet the curb lines. "Powell Bill funds are not increasing enough to keep up with the cost of maintaining the streets," he said.
Consulting engineers with the Piedmont-based U.S. Infrastructure of Carolina Inc. led the study, which revealed more than 40 percent of the city's roadways were found to be in poor or very poor condition. Thirty-eight percent of Hendersonville's lanes were noted to be in very good or good shape, and 21.3 percent were labeled "fair."
Wooten said a little more than $1 million will be needed to patch 41,587 square yards of rutted roadways.
The study found that Hendersonville currently needs $1,131,549 for routine maintenance and $2,754,929 for resurfacing.
Since roads start to rapidly deteriorate after about 18 years, consultants suggested the city should be on a 15-year paving cycle, resurfacing 4.5 miles of roads a year at an annual cost of approximately $692,200, he said. "We're doing about half of that mileage on an annual basis" today.
Nearly seven miles of the city's streets are in need of crack sealing – a stopgap measure which topped the study's list of high priorities. Hendersonville's overall pavement conditions were rated lower than the cities of Brevard, Waynesville and Southern Pines.
"USI recommends that Hendersonville should continue to dedicate its maintenance funding toward preventative maintenance practices and structural repair," Wooten said in a PowerPoint presentation. "This practice will reduce the maintenance cost per mile in future years."
In the past year, the city has resurfaced 2.4 miles and completed 3.6 miles of crack sealing on streets in good condition and 16,000-square-feet of full-depth patching to ward off further deterioration.
"We plan, going forward, to try to continue to do this to prolong the life of our streets," Wooten said.
The U.S. Infrastructure survey was completed in April.
Bridge work
In a memo to City Council, Wooten noted that a bridge "on West Allen Street next to Four Seasons Rotary Park was damaged during our recent heavy rains. The rapid flow of water along with debris in the creek has caused significant erosion under the right wing wall, causing the wing wall to settle and crack next to the bridge structure. This wall will have to be removed and rebuilt."
The Public Works Department recommended Brushy Mountain Builders be awarded the repair contract since they were the project's low bidder.
Mayor pro-tem Jeff Collis motioned to award the contract to Brushy Mountain. It passed with unanimous support.
Impact fees
City Council approved a new rate schedule for water and sewer system development charges that will raise the connection bills of new residential and small business customers. But amendments to the schedule will give new customers up to three years to pay the fees and existing homeowners a 50 percent discount for the price to connect.
New homeowners will have to pay more than double what they currently have to pay to connect to the city's water system, and at least $200 more than what they pay to hook on to the city's sewer.
"Typically when somebody has to go on city water or city sewer it's because they're being forced to," Councilman Steve Caraker said in his pitch to lower current residential bills by 50 percent.
Small-business owners, who paid the lowest price of $333 for water and $648 for sewer in system development charges over the past year, will now have to pay a base rate of $1,430 for water and $1,280 for sewer.
Big businesses will see a break in fees. Instead of paying a base rate of $82,444 to tap on to the city's water and sewer in current rates with a 2-inch meter, they would pay $14,250 under the new option.
Councilman Ron Stephens lobbied for all customers to have at least three years to pay the fees. A representative of the Henderson County Chamber of Commerce supported Stephens' suggestion, adding that the first three years of a start-up can bear the heaviest financial burdens on a new business.
In other action, City Council:
- Agreed to fund the first-year costs of having a student resource officer at Hendersonville Middle School while the city continues talks with the county school district to take over funding Hendersonville High School's current officer, who is funded in whole by the city. The district funds 78 percent of the costs to staff officers at the other county high schools. The city was not awarded a grant to help with the funding.
- Adopted an ordinance to repeal and replace a part of the city's zoning laws as required by the N.C. General Assembly's new House Bill 276.
- Adopted an ordinance to amend the city's mixed-use zoning law regarding the alternative design committee, employed to hear cases of developers who wish to pursue projects out of the scope of current zoning laws. The mayor was given authority to choose the ad-hoc committee members when the need arises for them to meet.

A Moberly Pizza Works employee is being lauded as a hero today, following his work in botching a robbery attempt on his place of employment.
Moberly Police Chief Russell Tarr confirmed to the MMI on Friday morning that an employee with the Moberly pizza restaurant singlehandedly chased down, caught, and held a male suspect for the Moberly Police Department, following said suspect's attempted robbery of the business on Thursday night (April 25).
The MMI was unable to contact Pizza Works before news deadline Friday to inquiry on said employee's name, despite multiple phone calls.
According to the police report released by the MPD, a 21-year-old male, of Moberly, entered Pizza Works while customers were still inside on Thursday night, reportedly assaulted an employee of the establishment, and then stole an item of merchandise before fleeing the scene.
The item, per Chief Tarr, was alcohol.
"Apparently, an employee recognized what was happening," Tarr said.
Said unnamed employee began pursuit of the suspect, while other employees called 911, the report states. Once the employee caught up with the suspect, he then held him down until the MPD arrived on the scene.
Says the report, the suspect "later reported he wanted to harm himself ."
Associate Circuit Judge Cynthia Suter signed a 96-hour committment on the suspect, and he was transported to a local hospital for a mental health evaluation.
