WASHINGTON (AP) - The House has passed a bill to give 800,000 furloughed federal workers retroactive pay once the government reopens.
The House passed the bill in a rare Saturday session. The vote was 407-0.
The Senate was expected to OK it as well, but the timing is unclear.
The White House backs the legislation.
The federal government been partially shut down since Tuesday, the start of the new budget year.
Both President Barack Obama and Congress are in Washington on Saturday, but there's no apparent progress in ending the shutdown.
After the voting, House are planning to leave town and not return until Monday evening.
The House has passed several bills to reopen selected parts of the federal government. Democrats are rejecting the piecemeal approach, saying the entire government should be reopened.

A night's airport parking: $112
Too expensive - Sydney's domestic airport car park users vent over sky high prices.PT0M59S http://www.canberratimes.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-24qd9 620 349 August 24, 2012

SOME frequent travellers say they are suffering bill shock after parking fees at Sydney Airport rose by as much as 100 per cent to cost more than a plane ticket.
The change from hourly charging to calendar-charging means travellers who park in the short-term domestic terminal in the evening and collect their vehicles the following morning have to pay twice as much they did last week.
''On Tuesday night I parked at 8.50pm and collected my car the next morning at 7.30am, so roughly 11 hours, and I was charged $112 to park my car. Last week the same trip cost $56 - a 100 per cent increase,'' Nick Michaels said.

Mr Michaels, who works in Sydney and travels at least once a week to Melbourne to see his family, said the increase was excessive and would add $3000 to his annual parking costs, forcing him to spend less time with them.
''On Wednesday, I saw the guy in the car in front of me put his card into the machine and scream into the intercom,'' Mr Michaels said.
A Sydney Airport spokeswoman said new ''state-of-the-art parking equipment'' allowed for online rates that would offer discounts of up to 73 per cent for pre-bookings.
Car parking prices at Australian airports for the 2010-11 financial year.
The spokeswoman said only 17 per cent of short-stay parking users left their vehicles for more than three hours, and would still be able to book two calendar-day slots on the web for $85.
"Customers can book anytime up to six hours in advance of their estimated arrival time and have a generous grace period either side of that time to enter the car park. This provides them with flexibility they need to manage their flight times," she said.
But Mr Michaels said the airport's new pricing structures were inconvenient for frequent travellers like him who often travel for only a few hours at short notice.
An Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) annual report for 2010-11 found Sydney Airport had the most expensive rates for short-term car parking per hour as at June 30, 2011.
The report also found that for the 2010-11 financial year, Melbourne's Tullamarine airport earned $114.6 million from customers, while Sydney Airport recorded the highest revenue at Australian airports - $7983 - per car park space.

Back to the defense, this will be the last post for the Detroit Lions 2011 then i will give it a day and tally up the votes and let you know who was the fan favorite, so if you havent voted do that soon.
Cornerback is a intresting position for the Lions they got pretty good play from them this year and are very young in that area. Chris Houston, Nathan Vasher and Brandon McDonald are all FA. I think that Houston was the best corner we had this year he didn't make the flashy plays like Smith but he was solid all year. Vasher actually came in and played pretty good as well he wasn't as good as Houston or Smith but dependable. There are some pretty big names hitting FA this year like Nnamdi Asomugha, Johnathan Joseph, Richard Marshall, Kelly Jennings, Brandon Carr and Eric Wright who are all solid corners in the league.
Safety seems to be locked up in the D with Delmas and Spievey. I was against drafting Spievey but he did grow on me towards the end of the year and actually start playing better and looked more comfortable. CC Brown and John Wendle are both FA and again Detroit is very young at the safety position. There are some intresting names hitting FA at the safety position like Eric Weddle, Michael Huff, Tom Zbikowski, Abram Elam, Eric Smith and Melvin Bullitt.
I would like to see Houston resigned ASAP and Wendle as well, as for Vasher, McDonald and Brown i can live without. I like the S situation we have but would like Detroit to add some who would push Spievey like Weddle or Smith who would both be awesome on ST as well. I think Detroit will draft a cb but still would love to see Marshall signed over any other cb listed.
As always free feel to comment or ignore.

But when New York general manager Steve Phillips disclosed the severity of the problem early Wednesday evening, it was difficult not to think that the 41-year-old setup man's 18-year Major League career had reached an end. Franco will miss at least the remainder of this season and probably most of next year as well after an MRI revealed an injury to the medial collateral ligament and the flexor tendon in his elbow.
Franco, who had the MRI done Wednesday morning at the New York Hospital for Joint Diseases, has been on the disabled list since the end of Spring Training and has not done more than throw a few bullpen sessions since undergoing surgery to remove a calcification on the elbow in December. The native New Yorker, who is second on the all-time saves list with 422, was brought to tears when informed of the news shortly before the Mets took the field against the Giants at Shea Stadium. He left the park early, saying he will address the media on Thursday.
"This is not great news," Phillips said. "This is not something that can heal on its own. John has to consider whether he wants surgery. He is clearly lost for the 2002 season and into next year."
The medical explanation for what has gone wrong in Franco's elbow is an avulsion of the MCl and flexor tendons from the medial epicondyle. That mouthful of medical jargon, however, means little to Franco, who only knows now that he must make the biggest and last decision of his career. Have surgery to reattach the tendon to the elbow and then undergo Tommy John surgery to replace the ligament or retire.
The news cast a pall over the Mets clubhouse, leaving the team stunned and upset.
"Obviously we're extremely saddened and disappointed," catcher Mike Piazza said. "We envisioned Johnny coming back to help us this year but that won't be the case. What can you say about the guy that hasn't already been said? He's definitely a New York icon where he came from and what he accomplished for someone not blessed with a lot of physical attributes.
"By no means am I eulogizing him, though. He needs time with his family now to mull over his options. We're saddened, though, and our hearts go out to him. There's not much to say. We told him we feel for him and that we're here for him and that we love him. We just have to let him think about it now and see what he wants to do."
Manager Bobby Valentine spoke in low and measured tones after New York's 8-2 loss to the Giants. His team's fourth defeat in a row and fifth in six games seemed far from his mind as he pondered Franco's fate.
"I'm sick about this," Valentine said. "There's no better team guy, no better captain. It's a damn shame. The guy is out there trying his heart out. There is no better guy around. He's been here through the tough times and the good times and he knows what it is to be a teammate. I think Johnny affects everyone personally and everyone took this personally.
"It came as a total shock because he was able to throw. The doctors said having that injury should have kept him from throwing the ball. It wasn't really hurting that much, according to John, and I'm thinking that at worse we shut him down for a week. But to go in that room and have the doctors say he needs reconstructive surgery was startling."
Phillips, who was also clearly stunned, leaned against a wall behind the press box at Shea Stadium as he delivered the news in somber tones. He knows that Franco, who is in the second year of a three-year deal worth $10.5 million, has his age working against him if he elects to go forth with the surgery. But he's not ready to see No. 45 off into retirement just yet.
"Plenty of guys have done it, but I'm not sure how many guys have done it at 41 years old," Phillips said. "The older you get, the slower you tend to recover. But I've said it all along: Don't bet against John Franco."
Franco first began experiencing pain in the elbow last summer and it prevented him from being anywhere near effective through August and September. He tried rest and rehab on the elbow before deciding to have surgery on Dec. 3 to remove the calcium deposit. Phillips and team doctors insisted that neither the surgery nor Franco's zealous approach to making it back to the mound played a role in this latest injury. Franco also had surgery in 1992 to repair a torn flexor tendon.
Phillips said he encouraged Franco not to make any rash decisions. He wants Franco and his family to discuss the matter and take some time before taking a course of actions because "in this situation, a couple of days aren't going to matter." His deal with the Mets is guaranteed and insured. Phillips said the Mets would be responsible for between 20 and 25 percent of his salary.
"It is not only a loss on the mound, but also in what he brings to the clubhouse and the bullpen," Phillips said. "John Franco is a Met. And as long as I'm here, he will be a Met. If this is the end, an offer will be extended to him to work for the organization in some capacity. Ownership agrees with that. Both [Fred Wilpon and Nelson Doubleday] have shared that with me."
The Brooklyn-born Franco is New York's longest tenured player and has become somewhat of an icon in the city. He went to St. John's University after graduating from LaFayette High, the same school that produced Major Leaguers Sandy Koufax and the Aspromontes, Ken and Bob, as well as co-owner Fred Wilpon. Franco lives on Staten Island and is involved in countless charitable activities throughout the Big Apple.
He has pitched in a team-record 605 games as a Met and is the club's all-time saves leader with 272. And now it may be over.
"He just wants it a little more than everyone else," Valentine said. "In spite of his size [5-foot-10, 185 pounds], he came up with a great out-pitch and kept making adjustments to remain competitive and one of the best in the business. He's one of the best that ever pitched and I'd do anything to see him pitch again."

Did Digicel want too big a bite?
In reading through the finely detailed, at times complex but highly impressive judgement handed down in the Supreme Court of Jamaica in the Digicel vs OUR matter, it is uncanny how some at street level captured much of the essence of what the court ruled on.
On Tuesday a man said, "Yow, since dem deh a Jamaica, don't dem eat nuff food? A weh more dem a look?"
In poring through the final judgement, I felt that Justice Mangatal could stand in any jurisdiction in the Commonwealth and more than hold her own.
In the particular matter Digicel was mainly applying for:
" That leave be granted to apply for judicial review of the decision of the OUR ...for an interim mobile termination rate dated June 4, 2012, setting an interim mobile termination rate of $5.00 per minute..."
The language of the law, especially that found in legal judgements, can at times be complex even though such judgements are basically trying to bring simple logic to what can be, to us mere mortals, a maze of legalese.
For this reason I will cherry-pick from the judgement the points I believe readers will be able to fathom without the need of rushing off to law school to complete a law degree.
Basically, what was being sought was: "Among other things Digicel had argued that on June 4, 2012 the OUR issued the Determination without following the standards of procedural fairness or observing the rules of natural justice.
"The OUR has opposed both Digicel's application for leave and its application for leave to operate as a stay of the proceedings.
"Lime has also opposed both the grant of leave and Digicel's application for the grant of leave to operate as a stay of the Determination."
To the man and woman at street level, it appeared that Digicel was "vexed" that LIME had gone ahead, consequent on the new changes to the Telecoms Act, to drastically reduce LIME on network charges to $2.99 per minute. To the public there was a perception that Digicel was questioning and fighting against such a reduction without the public knowing exactly what the Irish-based company wanted to seek in redress through the courts.
The judgement is fairly lengthy, close to 60 pages, and it makes reference to numerous cases and the logic which emanated from them in arriving at the final judgement. For this reason, as I previously stated, I will quote only those parts that I believe will assist the reader in arriving at his own understanding of the complexities involved.
In paragraph 49, the following gives a brief breakdown of how the court began to develop Digicel's claim versus the court's own findings.
"In this case, Digicel complains, despite the express provisions of the Act, that in fixing the interim rates the OUR ought to have had further consultation. However, it is clear on the evidence that from as far back as 2010, considerable opportunity has been provided by the OUR for consultation, and that Digicel has been consulted."
As much as reading through court judgements are usually boring to the layperson untrained in matters of the law, I found myself fascinated by the "workings" of the mind of Justice Mangatal. In paragraph 57 of the 115 that constitutes the judgement, the position of the OUR is brought more into focus.
"In the course of making submissions, the OUR have submitted that Digicel have suppressed information and have failed to comply with their statutory duty to provide the information that would be the basis for consultation. They have referred to these alleged breaches as a basis for finding that Digicel has not come with clean hands, and that in so far as judicial review is a discretionary remedy, the improper conduct of Digicel is a proper basis upon which to refuse leave."
Within a few more paragraphs the court records findings which indicate that the OUR is on sound grounds in its assessments of the behaviour of Digicel.
Paragraph 61 captures it.
"Be that as it may, it is quite plain that Digicel did not for an extended period of time, produce the information and data requested by the OUR. First Digicel queried the necessity for what the regulator the OUR was asking for, then there was unarguably delay in providing the information, assuming Digicel have even now provided the requested information, which the OUR say they have not."
In other words, at the time of arguing the matter before the Supreme Court, it was the view of the court that Digicel, the main player in the mobile phone market, had not yet provided the OUR with certain requested and required/pertinent information.
The court punches holes in Digicel's arguments in relation to the specific power of the OUR. Paragraph 69 captures this.
"One of the complaints made is that there is no rational basis upon which the OUR decided to issue the Determination Notice. However, the OUR have been given the power by Parliament. They have been given that discretion by Parliament and they must be given reasonable latitude within which to exercise that discretion. The complaint here is that the OUR did not have to, or there was no necessity for them to have set Interim Rates. Let us assume that it is so. In what way has Digicel shown by the evidence or argument that there is a realistic arguable ground that this was manifestly wrong, perverse or unfair? In my judgement, what has been put forward by Digicel falls woefully short of this."
As much as Digicel has been for long the darling among Jamaicans, there has always been the perception that the Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) is an entity without backbone and willing to bow to the dictates of the big players among the utilities. The finding above is indicative of the OUR regaining more than the required testosterone.
A part of paragraph 74 reads like a lament, but it is worth quoting. "I agree with the OUR that an alternative remedy does not have to be an appeal to the court."
In other words, to take the matter even further would be a grand waste of time.
The weakness of Digicel's case is developed and noted in a part of paragraph 101: "I am of the view that there are no serious issues to be tried and therefore a claim for a stay having the effect of an injunction should be refused. However, in the event that I am wrong and there are in fact serious issues to be tried, or arguable grounds with a realistic prospect of success, the applicant Digicel's case is clearly, at best, a weak case."
Where Digicel tries to make the case that it would suffer reputational damages should the OUR have its way, the court pours cold water on that in a part of paragraph 104.
"At paragraphs 67 and 68 Digicel claim that they may suffer reputational damage and further reputational damage in relation to prospective adjustments to its rates. The evidence falls far short of demonstrating a real risk of this occurring. As pointed out above, there is no solid evidence upon which such revenue loss or potential loss as alleged in paragraph 64 could be seen."
Just before the court lays down the law, it strikes a positive on behalf of those who really matter; something I, a layman, have been arguing for in these columns for about a year. It is to the benefit of the public that a "level playing field" be rolled out. Parts of paragraphs 110 and 111 encapsulate the finding.
" However, more important, it is the public who stand to lose the most, if a stay is granted. According to the OUR, the Jamaican public is bearing the burden of transferring unwarranted revenues to Digicel in excess of the true cost of termination services as required by the Telecoms Act which the public will not be able to recover if the final rates are ultimately less."
When the court ruled that "...the Jamaican public is bearing the burden of transferring unwarranted revenues to Digicel in excess of the true cost of termination services...", it mirrored the views of the man and woman at street level who were saying that Digicel "eat nuff food already".
When the court issued the final word in paragraph 115, the public was the big winner.
"The application for Leave to Apply For Judicial Review filed June 13, 2012 is refused."

Snow Bud
For a few minutes, I wandered away from the squeals of the small people and noticed this tiny, perfect little scoop of snow nested in a dry leaf. This would be a really great way to serve dessert at one of the molecular gastronomy places where the snow would actually be crystallized custard and the tree some kind of extruded petrified blackberry relish. I'm looking at you, WD-50 - make it so.

It's on people, the season is officially starting for the Saints today! The bitter rival Falcons are in town and we're looking to show them an absolutely miserable time. I'll be in attendance at this game so my twitter may not be as active as it usually is during games. As we know, these NFC South games always count more than other regular season matchups. Last year the Falcons raced very easily to a huge NFC South lead early before coasting to a division title, so beating them on opening day would make them play catch up from the onset of the season. This is not a "must win" by any stretch, but being at home against the Falcons on opening day it takes on about as significant importance as a week 1 game could possibly have. Don't forget to make your predictions for this game if you haven't already. Here's the five things I'm looking for:
1. Can the Saints slow down Steven Jackson?
The Falcons switch from Michael Turner to Steve Jackson has the whole football world buzzing. The Falcons fans are drooling, the national media seems to universally applaud, and even some Saints fans are nervous. But I talked to a Rams fan recently that knows his team inside and out, and he told me Jackson was largely finished. According to him the burst of speed and physical edge Jackson possessed have started to decline significantly. It's why the Rams let him go. I don't know how accurate that is, or if maybe playing for a new team that's much better will help him to bounce back, but it will be interesting to see how this move plays out. The Saints' defense played two pretty solid games against the Atlanta offense last year and it was because they were able to shut down the run in both games which forced the Falcons to be one dimensional. It may be harder to do with Jackson back there, but that's still what the Saints have to do. The Falcons are going to make plays with Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White. That's a given. But if the Saints can at least neutralize the run, it puts more pressure for those weapons to make plays more consistently.
2. Is the offense in midseason form?
The starting unit in preseason looked quite good and Drew Brees was very sharp. So good, in fact, that they played very little. Payton saw enough solid performance from his squad that he didn't feel the extra reps were necessary. That did diminish injuries (Joe Morgan is the only offensive player hurt right now), but the concern is whether they'll be firing on all cylinders right from the first quarter of the first game. Last season, it took them a half to get going against the Redskins and that can't happen here. This Falcons defense can be exposed, so the Saints need to jump on them early.
3. How do the Saints cover kicks?
I'm confident Thomas Morstead will do his thing and limit the amount of honest opportunities at a return the Falcons will get. If the Falcons do get a shot at a return, though, the coverage units make me very nervous. They were a disaster late last season, they were a disaster in preseason, and the Saints let their best cover guy go to boot in Courtney Roby. Setting up field position is instrumental in a game like this and can make the difference between a win and a loss. I'll be looking for the Saints gunners to surprise me and make that open field tackle when called upon.
4. How do the outside linebackers perform?
There are only three outside linebackers on the Saints' roster currently. Parys Haralson, Junior Galette and Martez Wilson. Galette and Wilson have sat out almost the entirety of preseason. I'm assuming Haralson and Galette will start, but I'm sure Wilson will get some reps too. But how will they play? Wilson and Galette saw almost no action this camp and Haralson just joined the team a week ago. They are going to be rusty and perhaps confused with the lack of reps and preparation. You know Atlanta will test them early by running off tackle and exposing them in coverage. Hopefully the lack of preparation won't impact their performance too negatively. But if I'm picking one position that is absolutely not ready for this game, it's probably OLB.
5. Can Keenan Lewis and Kenny Vaccaro reverse the recent fortunes of the defensive backfield?
The two biggest pickups this offseason, by far, were defensive backs. The Saints invested serious coin in cornerback Keenan Lewis via free agency, and they used their 1st round pick to take safety Kenny Vaccaro. Both will play a lot. But will they improve the dumpster fire that's been this defensive backfield in recent years? Patrick Robinson has been shockingly horrible, and the Harper/Jenkins safety tandem in coverage has been bad much more often than anything else. Jabari Greer is above average, but he's not getting younger. So can this infusion of young talent be enough to improve the overall play of the unit? It's all on these two guys, because we can't expect much different from the other guys. The test as early as week 1 against this potent Falcons' offense will be quite stern.

The province's chief medical examiner refused to speculate on when Amber Kirwan died during his testimony on Monday in the first-degree murder trial of Christopher Falconer.
Kirwan's body was not found until nearly a month after her Oct. 9 2011 disappearance from downtown New Glasgow.
SEE ALSO: Blog replay of today's court proceedings
"It's not possible to say how long she was in the grave," said Dr. Matthew Bowes at Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Pictou on Monday.
"That's TV stuff. The rates of decomposition are extremely variable and it would be very unwise for any pathologist to make a time of death statement."
Bowes walked the jury through photos on Monday of the exhumation of Kirwan's remains from grave near Pictou County's Heathbell Road on Nov. 5, 2011 and the autopsy he conducted at the Victoria General Hospital in Halifax.
He told the courtroom how he found "at least" 10 stab wounds and that toxicological testing showed very high levels of codeine in Kirwan's system. He said there were defensive wounds on her hands and arms, which show that despite what would have been a significant level of intoxication, Kirwan attempted to defend herself.
During earlier testimony about the night of Kirwan's disappearance, there was no talk of codeine being consumed by Amber's friends — who did acknowledge they were all drinking and that some people were smoking marijuana.
Police did, however, find trace amounts of codeine in a pill bottle seized Nov. 7, 2011 from a car driven by Falconer. The bottle was in a plastic Sobeys bag along with garbage and a muscle shirt that, according to Crown prosecutor Bill Gorman, had Kirwan's DNA on it.
Bowes spoke about how the significant decomposition of Kirwan's body made it difficult to draw certain conclusions about the knife wounds and how much alcohol was in her system.
During cross examination, defence attorney Mike Taylor asked if the wounds to Kirwan would have caused a significant amount of blood loss that would be difficult to clean up.
"Oh yes, it would," answered Bowes.
No large amounts of blood were found in either Falconer's car nor the trailer at 976 Hardwood Hills Rd., which belongs to his step-sister, from which most of the evidence has been gathered.

And upon the light,
You mourn sage less.

The iris is the kingdom,
Wisdom of welcome
Precious and seldom,
The hunter of fathom.

Well, well, well - it's been over 2 months since I last published anything decent on Pop Reviews Now, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little bit longer. After the facelift I gave PRN the other week, I'm spent! Just joking LOL.
I will be back on April 13, at exactly 5:30PM, with what I PROMISE is a MASSIVE post. If you've seen my tweets, as of the end of March the post was 20 pages long on a word document. O.O Basically I'll be coming back by making up for everything I missed - everything that matters, that is.

As a dutiful parent, I'm here to promote my son. The scouting reports on him have been talked about, so I won't go into them much. I do have to share a few choice quotes, though:
Cabrera has a tightly wound athletic body reminiscent of Justin Upton. In fact, Cabrera's tools at the same age are very reminiscent of Upton's. He ran the 60 in 6.34 seconds in Arizona and has an explosive first step that enables him to steal bases at will (he had 5 steals in one game in Florida) and the aggressiveness and instincts to use his speed. He throws 90-plus mph from the outfield with a very quick release and his speed will give him well above average range at any outfield position.
One PG scout remarked after seeing Cabrera for four days, "I haven't been to Japan (or anywhere else) but I suspect that this is the best 16-year old baseball player on the planet."
Cabrera's strong athletic body and quick twitch movements all around were impressive, but it was his plus-plus raw bat speed that made him a true standout. Quality pitching from the Langley Blaze kept him off balance and he didn't square up anything in game action, but the off-balance popups he hit were towering, suggesting that when he does square the ball up that it will explode off of his bat.
Additionally, I'd like to share some photos and video, plus one more quote on his swing:
via dplbaseball.com
And one of his signing!
via dplbaseball.com
Finally, the videos which provide more interesting scouting info. We get good looks at his arm, his speed, his swing, and his bat speed (wow!)
This video from Bullpen Banter
and these two shorter videos:
In the PG scouting report above I link to, there's this comment:
Cabrera's hitting mechanics from the right side are still on the raw side, with an early drift to his front side in games and some back side collapse on his swing, but he has electric bat speed and as much home run power as any player on the DPL roster. Any scout who saw his batting practice in Dunedin will remember the line drive he hit off the Blue Jays minor league building in left centerfield.
We hear the term "raw," a lot. From the videos, it looks like he fundamentally has decent form. A little adjustment and tweaking and refinement here and there, and he could have a textbook swing. But I'm very bad at dissecting swings. So, McCoven prospect hounds, what do you guys think of his swing? Do you agree with PG about the early drift and back side collapse?
PS> Would love FLA-giant's feedback on this, too. I miss him.

The future of former Bellator lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez is very much up in the air. Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney was a recent guest on MMA Weekly Radio, and he laid out exactly what the deal was with Alvarez:
"Eddie's been awesome with Bellator. Unfortunately for Eddie, he lost his world title and got submitted by Mike Chandler, but he's been just a stalwart for the organization. I honored my promise to him and I got him the (Shinya) Aoki fight that I had been promising him for about three years. He performed like a superstar in that fight," Rebney told MMAWeekly Radio recently.
"We're talking to him; we'll see what happens. We may cut a deal with Ed. We may not cut a deal with Ed. We've got about another five months left on our current relationship with Ed and another fight, so we may do another fight with Ed. There's a lot of different alternatives."
The UFC has made it clear that they'd like to bring Alvarez in as possible, but there's no way he'd make as much money as he did in Bellator. Rebney says he's prepared for whatever happens:
"We'll see where it goes. It's business, he may end up with us, he may end up fighting elsewhere," Rebney said.
"Right now our eye is on the ball with doing one more fight with Ed, but you never really know in a contractual situation like this."
If Eddie did make it over to the UFC, who would you like to see him face off with first? My choice would be Gray Maynard.

You can never quite tell what you're going to get with Aston Villa, with Paul Lambert's inconsistent outfit currently down in 11th place in the Premier League table. The Villans have been as frustrating as ever so far this season; struggling for victories after a promising start. They've won only three times since the start of the year, though head into this match at home to the league leaders on the back of a 4-1 thrashing of Norwich City.

That should give them a confidence boost, though it's unlikely to be of much use. José Mourinho's side have hit their stride at the perfect moment, speeding seven points clear at the top of the table.They did throw away points the last time they travelled to the Midlands, drawing 1-1 with West Brom last month, but odds on the Blues slipping up again are slim.
They will, however, be without defensive duo Ashley Cole and David Luiz, while young midfielder Marco van Ginkel is still also sidelined. Villa will be without Jores Okoré, Libor Kozák and Charles N'Zogbia through injury, while Ryan Bertrand is ineligible against his parent club.
Aston Villa injuries and suspensions
Out: Jores Okoré (knee), Libor Kozák (broken leg), Charles N'Zogbia (Achilles), Ryan Bertrand (ineligible), Chris Herd (personal reasons). In doubt: None.
Chelsea injuries and suspensions
Out: Marco van Ginkel (knee), Ashley Cole (knee), David Luiz (groin). In doubt: None.

Aston Villa: Brad Guzan; Antonio Luna, Ron Vlaar, Nathan Baker, Leandro Bacuna; Ashley Westwood, Fabian Delph, Karim El Ahmadi; Andreas Weimann, Christian Benteke, Gabriel Agbonlahor.
Chelsea: Petr Čech; Cesar Azpilicueta, John Terry, Gary Cahill, Branislav Ivanović; Nemanja Matić, Frank Lampard; Eden Hazard, Oscar, Willian; Samuel Eto'o.

Government achieves 13.8% reduction in carbon emissions
Prime Minister David Cameron announced on 6th July that central Government cut carbon emissions by 13.8% in the year following his May 2010 commitment to a 10% reduction.
Over 100,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions have been avoided across 3,000 buildings – from Whitehall headquarters to Jobcentre Plus Offices, HM Courts and Driving Test Centres – occupied by over 300,000 civil servants. An estimated £13 million has been saved on energy bills.
David Cameron welcomed the achievement and promised further reductions:
"A 13.8% cut in emissions in just one year is a great result and the civil service should be very proud of this achievement. But to be the greenest government ever we need to do more to stamp out energy waste in Whitehall, and make it easier for people and business to use energy more efficiently. That's why I'm committing the Government to go further by reducing emissions by 25% by 2015."
The Cabinet Office has published a short film and a report on how Government achieved the target:
The new commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2014/15 covers a broader range of departments' and their arms length bodies' buildings, and includes emissions from business related transport. It is part of the wider Greening Government Commitments on greenhouse gases, waste, water and sustainable procurement.
Managing to reduce
The Government's report on the achievement of the 10% target argues that it demonstrates what can be achieved by organisations that manage buildings more efficiently, make the best use of green technologies and mobilise staff to take simple actions to reduce their carbon footprint.
In addition to behaviour change, a range of measures were implemented to reduce energy use, all contributing to the carbon reduction:
- Facilities management
Improving controls over energy consumption, using building management systems to target excessive consumption, aligning operating temperatures for general office space and server rooms with best practice, shutting down buildings effectively over periods of low demand, etc);
- Investing in energy efficient equipment
Including voltage optimisation kit (which matches the electricity supply to that which is actually needed by appliances), boiler upgrades, variable speed drives, software upgrades to building management systems and energy efficient lighting;
- "Greening ICT" measures
Including activating settings to power down desktops when not in use, installing thin client (where computer processing is done centrally) and installing lower-energy monitors;
- Estate rationalisation
Efforts to concentrate accommodation in more energy-efficient buildings and reducing the m2 of office space per staff member;
- Staff behaviour change
Covering behaviour in lighting use, electrical appliances, kitchens, IT, and lift use;
- On-site renewables
A small proportion of the 10% carbon reduction was delivered through the installation of new on-site renewables such as biomass boilers and solar panels.
The report offers lessons from the year on the important prerequisites for any successful carbon reduction programme:
- Establish the mandate, and demonstrate strong senior leadership throughout the project;
- Put in place clear governance structures and strong central control; provide dedicated programme management;
- Don't micromanage but instead be flexible; adapt to local circumstances;
- Ensure that data is accurate, timely and transparent;
- Plan ahead and communicate effectively;
- Ensure there is sufficient funding;
- Engage staff; think about incentives to behaviour change;
- Build in opportunities to monitor and evaluate outcomes.

We all have been hurt by those we care about, and sometimes that hurt can turn into a grudge. Learning to get over a grudge can be an important part of our personal growth, because grudges remain an unhealthy choice. There are several things you can do to get over a grudge and not feel like you have to hold so tight onto angry feelings.
Why Getting Over a Grudge is Important
Holding a grudge can have so many negative effects on your life. The Bible tells us that God wants us to learn forgiveness. There are a number of bible verses on forgiveness that tell us to turn the other cheek, forgive our brothers and sisters, and move past bad situations. However, sometimes telling someone to do something is easy, while actually doing it is not.
Yet holding onto a grudge can have some really negative side effects. It can destroy relationships by letting anger take root in a divisive way. Studies have also shown that holding a grudge has negative effects on our bodies. Those that hold onto a grudge may have higher blood pressure and faster heart rates. Emotionally, when we let bitterness seep into one area of our life, it allows it to seep into others. We can become depressed and isolated by holding onto that grudge.
So learning to let go of a grudge is not only good for our health, but also pleasing to God.
Learn to Let Go
There are several things you can do to get over a grudge, and some of these things can also help you prevent yourself from ever forming a grudge in the first place. Here are some things to try:
- Make forgiveness a priority. Forgiveness is important, as we see over and over in the Bible. Yet it doesn't always come naturally. We have to learn how to forgive, but forgiveness only comes if we're willing and we put in the effort to make it happen. Making the loss of a grudge your priority sets you on the right path.
- Take a moment to think about the situation. In order to get over a grudge, we have to spend some time thinking about the situation that caused it in the first place. The situation may hurt to think about, but we have to look at it from all sides. Sometimes we're quick to anger, and we don't always think clearly about what happens. Take some time to really think about things.
- Realize why you're holding onto the anger. Why are you holding onto so much anger? What makes you afraid to forgive? Sometimes the hurt goes so deep that we think forgiveness lets the offender off the hook. Forgiveness doesn't mean there aren't consequences. It's about freeing yourself from the emotions that tie you up in knots. Maybe it's time to move on from the situation.
- Pray about the situation. We can think all the thoughts we want about the problem, but God always has His own insight. Spend some time in prayer asking God to give you a forgiving heart and to teach you how to let go.
- Make sure you're ready. Getting over a grudge isn't always instantaneous. It takes work, and you have to be willing to bury the hatchet permanently. If you are struggling too much, you may just have to give yourself more time. You may need to pray more or do more introspection. When you let go, let that grudge go fully.
- Take back control over yourself. Stop letting someone else have the power over how you feel. Forgiveness often means taking back control of your emotions. You need to stop letting others dictate our feelings, and forgiveness puts us back in the driver's seat.

( Originally Published Early 1900's )
The trunk is of importance in the expression of many emotions. In fear, it instinctively contracts, as it also does in admiration. In love, it expands, as though inclining towards the object of love; in hate, it shrinks back. In pride, or arrogance, the whole body seems to swell so that it is not without reason that an arrogant man in some of his movements is compared to a peacock. From the manner of holding the trunk depends much of the plasticity of pose in different actions.
All of the trunk movements have an influence upon the breathing organs, resulting in accelerated breathing in moments of happiness and joy; irregular breathing in hate and anger ; and in near paralysis in moments of fear and terror, etc. The singer must find a way to unite the dramatic requirements with the vocal necessities.
It is strongly inadvisable to rest the body on both feet equally, for, besides creating uncomfortable positions, the actor will find difficulty when it is necessary to take a step forward, some-times to the extent of rendering himself ridiculous. But if the body is supported on one foot, he can readily place the other in position when the action so requires.
The feet are the principal factors in movements, such as walking, dancing, etc. They are also important in characteristic and instinctive gestures and are most important in posing. On the manner in which they are placed depends not only much of the grace, character and plasticity of pose, but also stability and facility in changing one's position.
Standing on both feet, with the heels pressed together, the pose of respect, esteem, consideration, respectful waiting, modesty, discretion, re-serve, bashfulness, timidity, humiliation, degradation, servility, slavery, etc.
Resting the body equally on both feet, which are, however, separated, the pose of seamen, horsemen, idlers, sluggards, persons of vulgar habits; also of men carrying heavy loads.
Same position, but with the knees bent, the pose of weariness, fatigue, lassitude, weakness, old age, intoxication; also of the fear of losing one's balance.
If the body rests on the foot away from the center of action, the pose is one of unconcern, or indifferent waiting. But if, on the contrary, the body rests on the foot nearest the point of action, the pose will be of mindfulness and attention.
Facing the public or partners, the body rests on the forward foot. This is the pose of rapture, desire, request, demand, command, begging, wish, conviction, promise, observation, persuading and nearly all expressions dictated by the will. By bending the knee which supports the body, the same expressions, but much more accentuated, will be obtained.
Facing the public or partners, with the body resting on the back of the foot, we shall obtain the poses of indecision, wavering, difficulty in solving a problem, ignorance, moral shaking, doubt, suspicion, hesitation, irresolution, melancholy, fear, caution, negation, refusal, denial, resentment, astonishment, surprise, horror, con-tempt, disdain, etc. Bending the knee of same foot (the one supporting the body) , we shall have the same expressions as before, but more accentuated. The foot advances in desire or courage; retires in aversion or fear; stamps in authority or anger; kneels in submission or prayer (Austin) .
The walk should be in sympathy with and governed by the character represented and, there-fore, should have as much purpose as any other action. It is very difficult for a beginner on the stage to master the art of walking. Care should be taken not to confuse the tricks seen on the vaudeville stage with the high requirements of the operatic stage, for, needless to say, the "al-lure" of the one is incompatible with the other. Although the walk should always be natural, easy, never stiff, there are well-defined differences between the walks to be used in comedy and in tragedy.
In comedy, the walk is lively, the steps are short, quick, swinging. In tragedy, the walk consists of well-measured, sustained steps, heavy, long and mysterious. The walk for solemn occasions also requires well-measured, sustained steps, as for instance, the stride of King or Ramfis in "Aida," or of Wotan and of nearly all the characters in the Wagnerian operas. To create an impression of discretion, silence, curiosity, mystery, the walk on tiptoe is employed, in instance of which we may cite Othello's entrance in the last act of "Othello." In spying, or in the effort to avoid attention, the manner of walking is similar to springing, as when the Duke enters Rigoletto's house.
Traits of character may be realistically depicted by the manner of walking. We are familiar with the walk of the happy man, which is full of vivacity and sureness of step. On the other hand, the sad man falls into a walk that is full of melancholy, characterized by uncertain, wavering, dragging steps. The angry man has a nervous, violent walk, with quick jerking steps, and staggers, in seeming hesitation, as does Al-vise in "Gioconda."
In contrast to the nervous step used by the angry man, the arrogant man is seen to walk firm-footedly, with hands in pockets. While the lazy man shuffles along with slovenly step, his arms swinging idly at his sides.
The walk of the drunkard is balanceless, swerving in degrees varying with the state of drunkenness. He walks as though on stiff, weak, or too tender feet, and often the feet cross each other, as those of Cassio in "Othello."
Young people walk more surely and graciously than do people of middle age. The latter, in turn, have more energetic steps than the old, who walk slowly, for, although their foot movement is very quick, their steps are short. In extreme old age, the feet are raised from the ground with difficulty, the limbs giving the impression of weakness, or even of paralysis.
Exercises for the Study of Walking.—The best and most practical advice that can be given on this subject is that the aspirant start with a few elementary dance exercises. The ones al-ready described are strongly recommended. Then let him, for a few minutes daily, imitate the walk of different characters, observing care-fully all their mannerisms. As turning corners is most difficult, it is advisable to practice walking from one end of a room to the other nay, even from one piece of furniture to another. (I say "from one piece of furniture to another" advisedly, because the space at our disposal may be limited, indeed.) It is well, then, to try to ac-quire all the ease possible when exercising our-selves in close quarters, especially at the "turning points."
Kneeling rapidly and at the same time on both feet is good only for comic effect. To kneel with grace, it is necessary to take one step forward and rest the body on the forward foot until the second knee touches the ground. When picking up an object from the ground, act in the same way.
The manner of taking one's seat has always been considered an indication of good or bad breeding, even from ancient times. A well-educated person will take his seat carefully, without crossing the feet. An intellectual man, in moments of deep thought and reflection, drops his head in his arms, which rest on his knee. A conventional business man sits with his feet on his desk. Students and vulgar men sit with their legs astride the chair. The lazy, the tired and sometimes the old, drop heavily into the chair, though, in general, the latter sit down with precaution, feeling for the seat first with their hands. An energetic man sits erect, some-times with interlocked hands. Modest people assume sidewise positions, holding the head down —in other words, they have an attitude full of respect, even humble; while a timid person gives the impression of being afraid to occupy the whole seat and therefore sits on the edge.
People salute each other in different ways. A haughty man will never bow first, and when answering he hardly touches his hat. A poor or modest man bows low. A beggar takes off his hat, full of timidity, extending his hand to receive the gift. A lazy man acts similarly to the haughty man. A good-natured person bows and expresses greetings. The soldier, always using his official manner, has a military bow, even before ladies. But all types, when entering a church, should hold the hat in the hand and have the head bent forward upon the breast.
In playing historical parts that require the wearing of great hats, it is necessary to take off the hat with the semicircular movement, so as not to cover the head. The stage manager, however, is obliged to teach this matter of ceremony.

2Ryan Lochte Wants His Own Fashion Line Now
Ryan Lochte may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have dreams, dammit! All he wants to do is win some more swimming medals at the next Olympics, meet his dream girl and… own a fashion line? Sure, okay, why not.
From Yahoo! OMG:
In a preview for the swimmer's E! series "What Would Ryan Lochte Do?" he shows off his shoe closet … which holds 150 pairs! He unveils multiple pieces from his collection, including a "one-of-a-kind" pair of metallic, bright-green-and-yellow sneakers with his name sprawled across the sole in large letters, designed by Lochte himself. "These are the very first things that really brought me out in the fashion world."
And the fashion world is where he plans to stay! The 28-year-old swimmer reveals his future career ambition in the clip saying, "I really love fashion. My dream is definitely to have my own apparel and accessory line … I want everyone to be in my shoes walkin'."
There's a video to support all this, so I'll just leave this here:

The slogan for his Nike line will be "Just duuuh."
Literally cannot give one shit. Is he STILL talking about those lame-ass shoes? How long ago WAS that???

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
A good place to go on a sunny day. There is only a small cluster of routes here but in my opinion its well worth the trip. The crag is located up from the river in a wooded area. If you are unfortunate enough to find the climbs you wanted to do occupied you continue down the trail and reach Sentinel Area.
Getting There
There are multiple options for reaching this area. I park at the Lake o' the Dallies parking area. From the parking lot you cross the steet and go past a playground (with an artifical boulder for kids to climb on). Continue by the north end of the lake. As the trail forks take the right trail (Echo Canyon Trail). After passing a small pond and some cliff to your left, look for a rock formation that looks like a human face. Many of the climbs lie to the left around this face. There is an old paved path that leads a couple feet toward the river here as well, that serves as another good landmark for those that don't recognize faces in rock right away.
