text: Compliance Amending a Plan Not a Fiduciary Act September 18, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – A federal appellate court has ruled trustees of a multi-employer pension plan were not acting as fiduciaries when they amended the plan. By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | September 18, 2012 Page 1 of 2 View Full Article The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said its previous decisions to the contrary were abrogated by subsequent decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court. In Curtiss-Wright Corp. v. Schoonejongen, which involved a welfare plan, the Supreme Court said, "Employers or other plan sponsors are generally free under ERISA, for any reason at any time, to adopt, modify or terminate welfare plans." Lockheed Corp. v. Spink involved a pension benefit plan. The court said, "We see no reason why the rule of Curtiss-Wright should not be extended to pension benefit plans." According to the 2nd Circuit's opinion, the high court also declared, "Plan sponsors who alter the terms of a plan do not fall into the category of fiduciaries." Hughes Aircraft Corp. v. Jacobson concerned a pension plan to which employees were required to contribute. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had thought that this circumstance distinguished Lockheed Corp. and concluded that an amendment to such a plan was subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act's (ERISA's) fiduciary standards. The Supreme Court disagreed, saying "Our conclusion [in Lockheed Corp.] applies with equal force to persons exercising authority over a contributory plan, a noncontributory plan, or any other type of plan." The court added emphatically, the fiduciary duty claims "are directly foreclosed by [Lockheed's] holding [sic] that, without exception, "[p]lan sponsors who alter the terms of a plan do not fall into the category of fiduciaries."

A little kid figures out how to break out of his self-imposed prison.
Marco Arturo's brilliant 2-minute movie about the anti-vaccine movement starts with the 12-year-old promising to show all the evidence supporting the link between autism and vaccination, after which he holds up a succession of blank pages.
MONSTRUM founders Ole Barslund Nielsen and Christian Jensen create imaginative story-based playgrounds in their native Denmark and around the world. A few examples below:
Some truths are universal. For one, your phone will always run out of power when you most need it.

I'm all for free online education (and so is MIT, who has been offering free videos of courses for years and now with MITx, even full online courses with virtual labs and assignments). But this is really about making physical education fun at a school where (at least according to stereotype) the students are out-of-shape computer nerds. Fencing and sailing don't lend themselves to online education.
If you really fancy yourself a pirate, just steal the damned certificate!
"Any student who completes courses in pistol, archery, sailing, and fencing is considered a pirate."
…wow, so oldschool piracy, not the bittorrent kind.
No grog-mixing or sodomy? Pathetic. And in this era of high unemployment, would it have killed him to hire a live parrot?
Hmm, only need the sailing cert and I'm done… wonder if they consider axe throwing or garotte experience as a substitute?
Who wants to bet that they'll get a DMCA takedown notice from a mediabot?
It's good to know that MIT is taking the serious steps necessary to combat Global Warming.

Taranaki police were red-faced after realising they forgot to take some firearms with them when they abandoned their old police station.
The embarrassing incident is one of two involving mislaid firearms in New Plymouth which have recently come to light.
The Taranaki Daily News has been informed workers involved in the demolition of the old New Plymouth police station two years ago discovered abandoned firearms. The workmen broke down a locked door and discovered the cache.
They informed their boss who immediately contacted police who arrived red-faced and took the firearms away.
> Editorial: Police must treat firearms with respect
Last month, police and the Ministry of Justice confirmed two Glock police-issue pistols had been stolen from the New Plymouth courthouse lock-up but they did not know when.
Taranaki area commander Inspector Blair Telford confirmed firearms were left behind two years ago.
In a statement to the Daily News, Telford said: "Taranaki police can confirm they were notified immediately of firearms and firearms parts being found by tradespeople when the old New Plymouth police station was demolished in February 2012.
"The non-police firearms and parts of firearms were non-operational and could not be fired.
"There was no risk to the public from the firearms and parts at any time. They were stored in a secure room in a locked cupboard waiting to be destroyed.
"The firearms were destroyed after police retrieved them and the matter was raised with the relevant staff members to ensure this oversight does not occur again."
A Taranaki man and firearms licence-holder who asked not to be named said the discovery of the firearms was known by a number of people in the community.
He said he and other firearms licence-holders were very concerned at the police error.
The demolition was well under way and the building had been signed over by police when the discovery was made.
"If we [licence-holders] put a foot wrong, police would soon be knocking on our doors and taking our firearms away."
New Plymouth Pistol Club president Ron Price said that in the club's experience police were extremely careful with their firearms. The police regularly used the pistol club for practice and adhered to the club's strict protocols.
"Any time they are at the club they are very protective of their firearms. They are not gung-ho in any way," Price said.
Hunting and Fishing retailer Wayne Fairhurst said yesterday police had obviously made a mistake in not checking the locked room and would have been understandably red-faced when the discovery was made.
"Mistakes are made.
"The police are our friends and they do a good job. Firearms laws are very well controlled in New Zealand," Fairhurst said.
Problems with firearms only happened when they ended up in the wrong hands, Fairhurst said.
In the case involving the Glocks, the pistols were being kept as evidence in the police shooting of Steven Wallace at Waitara in April 2000.
The theft was only discovered after a man living in the Ruapehu district was arrested on drugs charges in the middle of last year.
One of the firearms he allegedly had at his home was a Glock which was traced back to the police shooting 14 years ago.
No-one has yet been arrested for the theft of the Glocks.
One is yet to be found.

REDWOOD SHORES, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 01/06/14 -- Oracle (NYSE: ORCL)
News Summary
Consumers are asking for a shopping experience that allows them to purchase where and when they want, using a mix of devices, web sites and stores. Retailers are responding by erasing lines between channels, targeting offers and making inventory readily available at the right time and place. With the introduction of its largest, most far-reaching new release, Oracle Retail is uniquely equipped to help retailers offer customers commerce anywhere in a targeted, profitable and efficient manner.
News Facts
- Oracle today introduced Oracle Retail version 14, encompassing new features and functionality across its complete offering of retail business solutions. The enhanced suite of solutions enables relevant customer engagements across touchpoints, targets assortments, drives improved efficiency from inventory and helps reduce total cost of ownership.
- Oracle's leading retail science and best practices are now embedded within even more business processes, placing the customer at the center of the value chain and aligning people, processes and technology to drive profitability.
- New operational and planning processes in Oracle Retail version 14 allow customers to buy, pick-up or return items via any channel and equips retailers to fulfill demand without channel constraints, using built-in functionality that offers efficiencies and profit gains for retailers.
- Throughout the solution set, processes reflect an increased focus on the consumer, and assortment planning is informed by a range of new data points that work together to influence item and category performance.
- Oracle Retail version 14 delivers further improvements through packaged integration, a rich set of application programming interfaces and an infrastructure that can accelerate implementation and accommodate modular deployments that work within the constraints of a retailer's evolving mix of systems.
- Additionally, Oracle Retail version 14 is optimized for Oracle's engineered systems, servers and storage to deliver faster performance, greater efficiency, higher availability, and near-unlimited scalability. Deploying Oracle Retail solutions on Oracle systems enables customers to lower total cost of ownership, mitigate risk, improve user productivity, and help streamline management, while benefiting from the value of a single point of accountability.
Oracle Retail Connects the Consumer Journey from Mobile to Store to Fulfillment
- New features and functionality make it easier for customers to purchase items no matter where inventory resides, with store-level inventory visibility online, real-time inventory lookup for items in another store, support for orders and take-with items in the same transaction and support for returning purchases from any channel.
- To help retailers take advantage of mobile, Oracle Retail solutions deliver enhanced support for most devices and help mobilize store associates with mobile Point of Service (POS), tablet POS, assisted selling tools and better visibility to promotions, merchandising and store dashboards.
Targeted Assortments Give Customers Better Choices
- To help retailers target the right mix of items online and in stores, Oracle Retail version 14 embeds leading retail science and draws insight from multiple data sources including consumer decision trees, advanced store clustering, demand transference and space optimization, as well as traditional demand forecasting, to recommend alternate actions and illustrate each one's impact on item, category and overall performance.
- Oracle's advanced store clustering capabilities are included in the suite to help retailers allocate products based on customer segments and optimize space planning across groups of stores.
- New analytics and visualizations included with the latest release help to answer retailers' most commonly asked questions, such as "Where are my most beneficial customers located and shopping, and what are their top purchases?"
Retailers Drive Performance by Making Inventory Transparent and Accessible
- With version 14, Oracle Retail provides a single inventory master, which enables retailers to make inventory visible and accessible 24/7 across channels for consumers and employees.
- Oracle Retail version 14 connects more of the day-to-day supply chain operations to help maximize efficiency and accuracy of store picking, store inventory processes, warehouse management and merchandising.
- Now, operational forecasts can consider not just price and promotional changes but also the transfer of demand that happens when assortments change. The resulting single view of demand across the enterprise helps teams to optimize and align inventory.
Improved Integration Helps Lower Retailers' Total Cost of Ownership
- With Oracle Retail version 14, Oracle continues to simplify deployment, help maximize ROI, and help lower the total cost of ownership by improving integration throughout the full suite of retail solutions.
- In addition, the enhanced integration helps ensure that interdependent retail operations such as customer segmentation, store clustering, pricing, planning, allocation and space planning share information that influences business intelligence and recommendations.
- Following Oracle's commitment to open and scalable solutions, the full offering of Oracle Retail solutions can be implemented as a comprehensive suite or as modular best-of-breed point solutions, integrated with existing solutions or deployed in any order as part of a full-scale IT transformation program.
- A new dashboard allows IT to monitor and manage retail integrations from a single point. Now retailers can more quickly identify transaction volumes, average response times, and errors to help ensure critical systems are consistently operating at maximum efficiency.
Supporting Quotes
- "In the global retail industry we have seen a shift of capital from building and refurbishing stores to digital commerce and creating new and differentiated customer interactions. Retailers are focused on enabling the whole retail enterprise to deliver commerce anywhere," said Mike Webster, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Oracle Retail.
- "Oracle Retail version 14 is our largest release in terms of functionality and manpower invested in development. This release aligns with the industry investments, has a sharp focus on quality and lowers the total cost of ownership for retailers. It further differentiates Oracle when the retailer is choosing a point solution and in situations where the retailer is transforming multiple business operations to enable a more effective customer experience," said Webster.

Unique and Classic Coffee Flavor2133
flavored coffee
Just before current times, when contemplating various flavours for gourmet coffee, most people would think about delicious chocolate (mocha) because the principal choice. It had taken just one small key to include delicious chocolate with an espresso consume, since most of the cafes in European countries serve hot chocolate refreshments along with the rest of the menu. As the café mocha is a beverage that are available in a lot of the world's cafes, other kinds of tastes have adopted match. Some had been developed to mimic the traditional liqueurs, flavours like Irish crème or crème de menthe. Other individuals had been more traditional (orange, hazelnut) and had been added in little doses to drinks much like a shot or liqueur could be added to a cocktail.
Coffee lovers who enjoy various flavours in gourmet coffee could also find diverse options in complete bean or manufactured develop. Through taking the bean and modifying the overall preference, gourmet coffee makers should bring in an unnatural component towards the espresso. It really can not be completed during the farming method. Nonetheless, the flavors them selves could be totally natural. Obtaining a bundle of hazelnut or mocha-flavoured espresso can be done today in your preferred café or local shop.
In addition to the most basic espresso flavours, you will find pistachio, white chocolate, almond, orange and more topping a list at cafes right there with hazelnut or mocha. In fact, if you have a flavor that will conceivably be matched up with coffee, you will discover it, even perhaps in natural type.
Enjoying a café mocha is in many ways experiencing flavoured gourmet coffee at its most all-natural and finest. There are varieties of pure delicious chocolate, even just in powdered or syrup develop, which can be blended with coffee to boost the natural properties of both.
Some of the much more amazing flavours getting promoted in espresso beverages are pumpkin liven and sugar-cinnamon types.
coffee and tea
Including a number of diverse syrups or products to some coffee beverage will certainly make its dietary attributes fluctuate broadly from the common mug off espresso having a place of glucose or ounce of milk products. Coffee lovers who grow accustomed to very sweetened drinks that the body fat and overall caloric content will likely be significant. Trying to keep it simple will allow a gourmet coffee refreshment to maintain its most suitable characteristics.
For daily coffee drinkers who see an espresso or black color espresso being a staple of existence, it really is improbable that a number of flavours and adornments around the timeless form will likely be attractive. For other people using a significant sweet tooth, the various tastes will prove to add a brand new wrinkle to the idea of coffee.

Jack the Giant Slayer (2013)
Plot Summary
Sent to the market by his uncle to sell their horse and buy thatch for their roof, Jack meets the beautiful Princess Isabelle whom he rescues her from ruffians. He returns home only with a handful of beans given to him by a monk who claimed they were sacred but that does little to impress his uncle who tosses them away. In the night the Princess arrives having run off to keep from marrying Roderick who is clearly only interested in becoming king. Soon the beans take root with a giant stalk carrying away the princess and Jack's house. He soon sets off on an adventure with the king's guards to rescue the princess only to find that a mythical land filled with giants really exists.- Written by garykmcd
A different telling of the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk. It begins with a young Jack who is captivated by the tale of a race of Giants who come from a land in the sky and came through giant stalks which were sprouted from magic beans. And the giants devoured everyone so Erik the king had a crown made that makes whoever wears it control the giants and he used it to make them leave and he had the giant stalks chopped. Upon his death, he was buried with the crown along with the beans that grew the giant stalks. When Jack turns 18 he is sent to sell their horse and cart. When he goes to the cloister, he runs into a girl who is being harassed. He tells the ones harassing to leave her alone. Later the king's soldiers show up and take the girl away, it seems she's the Princess Isabelle who ran away because her father is telling she has to marry Roderick, one of the his trusted advisers. But what the king doesn't know is that Roderick is up to something. He goes to his chamber and sees a monk leave. He discovers something is missing so he tries to find the monk. When the monk sees he's surrounded, he runs into Jack and asks for his horse and offers a pouch of beans in exchange. He tells Jack not to get them wet. Later the monk is caught and Jack leaves. When he goes home, his uncle is infuriated that he allowed the monk to con him. He throws the beans to the floor. Jacks picks most of them up but one falls through a crack in the floor. That evening it begins to rain. That evening the Princess runs away again and seeks shelter at Jack's. They talk about how they're intrigued by the story of the Giants and the beanstalk. Suddenly a giant stalk sprouts taking Jack's house with the Princess to the heavens. Jack tries to save her but falls and is knocked out. When he wakes up he sees the king standing over him and asking where hi s daughter is. Jack shows the beanstalk, so the king sends soldiers to climb the stalk and search for his daughter. Jack offers to go which the soldier doesn't think is a good idea. Roderick offers to go too but he has other plans. Along the way, Roderick cuts the rope getting rid of some of the soldiers. When they make it to the top they discover that the tale about the giants might not be a myth. Roderick also tells Jack to give him the beans.- Written by email@example.com

Outstanding 4.7 /5 from 41 reviews
Very welcoming and excellent service. Lots of extra touches. Staff all good. Spa bath lovely. Position in Dartmouth ideal.
Lovely hotel,great service comfortable,and all staff very friendly.food at breakfast and in bars was delicious,all freshly cooked. Only negative is the room was on the 4th floor,we were with my 74year old sister and was quite difficult for her to get up and downstairs,but it is a 500year old building after all,so no lifts.
Was just fabulous wonderful character hotel marvellous staff and the view amazing. Will definitely be staying again
We had a lovely stay in a large , comfortable room at the top of the hotel with a great view over the town. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and the owner came and spoke with guests at each table at breakfast! The breakfast was fantastic - lots of fresh fruit and delicious cooked food. Highly recommended.
This is a very opulent hotel in an absolutely stunning location overlooking the small harbour in Dartmouth. Clearly a carefully modernised building retaining its elegance and comfort throughout. A bit pricey especially if you choose a front room.

Indian actress Mallika Sherawat argues she was only an 'acquaintance' of Antonio Banderas... after claims she led to his split with Melanie Griffith
Indian actress Mallika Sherawat was accused of having an 'intense bond' with Antonio Banderas when she danced with him at the Cannes Film Festival two years ago.
On Wednesday RadarOnline reported that 'bond' is what led to the 53-year-old's early June divorce filing from his wife of 18 years, Melanie Griffith.
But a day later the exotic looker told E! News that she was nothing more than an 'acquaintance' of the Mask Of Zorro star.
Scroll down for video...
No romance here: On Thursday Mallika Sherawat denied to E! News that she had a relationship with Antonio Banderas, who she is pictured with here at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012
They seemed to be happy together: The Indian actress said she was only an 'acquaintance' of the 53-year-old Spaniard
'Antonio Banderas is a wonderful man, a great dancer and an acquaintance of mine,' Sherawat said in a statement to the site.
The Spaniard wowed the beauty with his impressive dance moves as the pair got close on the dance floor during a party aboard a luxury yacht in France in 2012.
The 37-year-old Bollywood star appeared to be having the time of her life as she cozied up to the hunky married man, dressed seductively in a black frock featuring a sheer lace bodice with plunging neck detail.
This comes on the heels of his dancing with his gorgeous Expendables 3 co-star Natalie Burn on May 18 at a party at the Gotha nightclub in Cannes.
Both are actors: Mallika (left) said that Antonio (right) is a good dancer but nothing romantic happened
At the time, Mallika and Antonio's dance floor dalliance was captured on video by the actress' alleged best friend and stylist, Ivan Bitton.
He has insisted he wasn't the one who leaked the tape. But he did talk about the incident.
The 46-year-old told Radar: 'I remember when they danced and they had a lot of PDA; he had a lot of public affection with Mallika. He was saying, "God you're so beautiful," like a horndog would do talking to [his] prey.'
But on Thursday the Indian beauty told E!, 'Ivan Bitton is not my best friend. I hired him as a stylist at Cannes and then fired him. I'm sure he released the video. I don't know what he's even talking about now. I haven't been in touch with Ivan since I fired him. Whatever he's saying about me is ridiculous.'
'He was really mesmerised by her': The glamorous 37-year-old - pictured at this year's Cannes Film Festival on May 22 - grabbed the actor's attention
'He was really mad': The 53-year-old - seen here on May 19 - reportedly told Bitton at this year's Cannes Film Festival that video of him and Mallika dancing together had 'caused problems with his wife'
However, while Antonio's long-time love Melanie was nowhere to be seen during the event, another woman wasn't at all happy about the father-of-one's very public display of affection with someone else.
'They were dancing and everything was fun ... and this woman barged onto the dance floor
and literally [pushed Mallika]. It was like, "Get
off my man!"' Bitton divulges.
According to Bitton, he was later told that the woman in question was the angry friend of another female who claimed to be in a relationship with the lothario - 'the daughter
of some big agent.'
While the stylist says Mallika and Antonio's relationship didn't end there, he admitted that he also saw the Zorro star with a third 'thin-haired, white American girl' on a yacht in Cannes as
he partied once again without his wife.
Despite Banderas's alleged wandering eye, Bitton claims that he 'got really like "wow" on Mallika' and even took her on a romantic vacation to Spain.
'It was just the two of them,' he revealed of the
trip, which allegedly took place in early 2012.
'He took her without the wife knowing. He really made sure that this was a very discreet trip.'
He added: 'I believe she met some of his family - that's how involved he was with her emotionally.'
The Indian beauty wasn't the only to catch his eye.
'He was with other women [too]. I had seen him with other women,' Bitton said. 'He was always
in public with other women. So, for me, I didn't realise that what happened [between him and Mallika] would cause Melanie to go around town with her ring on.'
insisted the Oscar-nominee 'must have known about other girls', adding:
'To me, it's very obvious... only because he's so public about it.
'What I'm guessing is that they probably had an arrangement that it's cool for him to have other [flirtations], as long as it's not public,' he speculated. 'With our case, it became public and I think that's where she got mad.'
'He was always in public with other women': Bitton speculates that 56-year-old Melanie 'must have known about other girls'
Indeed, Banderas was reportedly 'really mad about the video', while he told Bitton during a run-in at this year's Cannes Film Festival in May that it had sparked the beginning of the end of his marriage.
'He specifically said that after that video, this is when everything started to go down. It specifically started to cause problems with his wife,' Bitton explained.
NOT the other woman: Antonio's Expendables 3 so-star Natalie Burn was forced to deny rumours of a romance with the then-married actor after the pair partook in a sexy flamenco dance in Cannes on May 18
With Mallika also terribly embarrassed upon the tape being leaked, she apparently 'froze Antonio out', though Bitton adds that she only did it 'because she doesn't want to be seen as a homewrecker'.
'She really isn't [a homewrecker],' he stated.
Bitton added that the beauty went on a vacation with Banderas.
But on Thursday she said, ' I did not go on any vacation with him, and I'm sorry he's going through a divorce.'
Bitton also insisted the only reason he's speaking out now is because he feels that it's 'really done' between Antonio and Melanie this time, which leaves the door open for his best friend to possibly rekindle that original spark she had with the now-single star.
'I know that it's very possible,' he said. 'She likes him. What's not to like? And I know he was really mesmerised by her. There is a real chemistry between them.'
'He mentioned he had some problems. He was saying that he was trying to fix the marriage': The pretty brunette told RadarOnline that while Banderas confided in her about his troubles, he was still 'deeply in love' with Melanie

A trio of former New Plymouth District Council employees are having the time of their lives as they work the Olympic frontline.
Laura Crombie and Sam Bury from the council events team, along with Rugby World Cup manager Jenny Mills, have all landed jobs right in the thick of the world sporting event.
Speaking to the Taranaki Daily News from her post at Earls Court, Miss Crombie said she was experiencing the most amazing time of her life at the Games.
"It's one thing being in London, but it's another actually having the opportunity to be involved with the Olympics," she said.
"Being involved in something on such a large scale is unreal."
Miss Crombie is working as part of the command control and communication team, based at the volleyball, but also had the opportunity to work in the Olympic Park and Excel venues leading up to the opening ceremony.
She said she had experienced two memorable moments so far.
"The first one was watching the dress rehearsal for the opening ceremony and the second was seeing the gates open at Earls Court for the first time to all spectators.
"I was blown away," she said.
While she had not rubbed shoulders with any big-name athletes yet, she had run into Russian President Vladimir Putin.
"Prince Harry and William are reportedly doing the rounds, so we have our fingers crossed," she said.
Mr Bury is working as a venue manager at the Olympic Stadium, while Ms Mills is the operations manager for the same venue.
Council recreation and events manager Brent Thawley said to have three former employees working at the Olympics showed the quality of the council's team.
"We are very proud of the crew, but not surprised they've been snapped up by the Olympics.
"It's great to see them applying their expertise on the largest sports stage in the world."

Unbound: Tibor Fischer
We've been following the fortunes of crowd-funded publisher Unbound for a few months but for the first time this week we saw a copy of one of the books.The double bill of short stories from Brixton-based Tibor Fischer presented in flipbook format dropped through our letterbox and we were thrilled to see the finished article is worthy of this potentially gamechanging literary phenomenon.
Writers can submit an idea for a book and if enough people pledge funds to make it a reality then Unbound publishes it – with all donors' names recorded in the book and special copies/treats such as lunch with the author for those who really dig deep to make it happen.
This is the second book published by Unbound since it launched in May, after former Monty Python member Terry Jones' Evil Machines. The two stories presented here – Possibly Forty Ships and Crushed Mexican Spiders are both uncomfortable modern morality tales, one focussing on a young woman ground down by metropolitan alienation and the other a torture scene related to the Trojan war.
Anyone who pledges money towards a project that gets the go-ahead can track the author's progress through the website, while a professional designer is commissioned to work on how it's going to look. This clothbound Tibor Fischer tome features cover photographs from Czech photographer Hana Vojakova.
It will be interesting to see how the project develops and whether over time donors might be able to have their say on the design process too.
But one thing is for sure – this is a bold and imaginative project which has the potential to change the relationship between writers and their readers for good.

Rand Paul says he hopes 'Southern Avenger' saga won't undermine efforts to broaden GOP's reach
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul confirmed to reporters Monday that he and staffer Jack Hunter — the former shock jock known as the Southern Avenger — were parted ways in a "mutual decision."
Paul said he hoped that Hunter's presence on his staff wouldn't undermine his efforts to broaden the appeal of the Republican Party. Paul has reached out to African Americans, for instance, speaking at historically black colleges in Washington, D.C., and Louisville.
"I think everybody occasionally has people that work for them who sometimes have a background that damages what you're trying to do," he said.
"But I think people can judge me on who I am and what I'm trying to do," Paul added. Here's the clip:
Hunter worked as a radio show host in South Carolina where his alter ego, the "Southern Avenger," would wear a wrestling mask with the confederate flag emblazoned on it. Hunter, who has worked in Paul's Washington office for more than a year most recently as a national security adviser, came under national scrutiny earlier this month.
Hunter spoke about racial pride, immigration and stated his support for the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, as the Washington Free Beacon first reported in early July.
Hunter told the Daily Caller that he planned to return to punditry.
Paul said he wasn't aware of what Hunter would do next.

Here's the latest ban for Clarkson, after an illegal check to the head of St. Louis Blues forward Vladimir Sobotka on Thursday night:
From the NHL:
Toronto Maple Leafs forward David Clarkson has been suspended for two games, without pay, for delivering an illegal check to the head of St. Louis Blues forward Vladimir Sobotka during NHL Game No. 477 in St. Louis on Thursday, Dec. 12, the National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety announced today. The incident occurred at 6:28 of the second period. Clarkson was assessed a minor penalty for illegal check to the head.
He's a repeat offender, which may have some flinching at only two games. But please recall the 10-gamer is for hopping off the Leafs bench in the preseason to save Phil Kessel from a Murdersaurus.
I know there's a passion from some to see suspensions continually escalate, but I think there's a difference between an automatic ban for a rule designed to eliminate benches-clearing brawls and one that targets reckless, injurious plays. I'm OK with this not being 11 games; but it better be more than two for the next over-the-edge play.
Two games, for the record, is one less than what Adam Erne of the Lightning received for head-shotting the same player in the preseason. But those were three exhibition games, which is like fining someone for Monopoly money.
David Clarkson now has twice as many suspension games (12) as he does points (6). Good thing on one's going to scrutinize that seven-year deal for $5.25-million a season cap hit …

BELLEFONTE, Pa. — Jurors in Jerry Sandusky's child sexual abuse case began deliberations Thursday after prosecutors described him as a serial molester who groomed his victims, while his defense lawyer said the former Penn State assistant football coach was being victimized by an overzealous prosecution and greedy accusers.
Prosecutors said Sandusky was "a serial, predatory pedophile" who used gifts and the pageantry of Penn State's vaunted football program to lure and abuse vulnerable boys who came from troubled homes.
"What you should do is come out and say to the defendant that he molested and abused and give them back their souls," Senior Deputy Attorney General Joseph McGettigan III. "I give them to you. Acknowledge and give them justice."
Standing behind Sandusky, McGettigan implored the jury to convict him
"He molested and abused and hurt these children horribly," McGettigan said. "He knows he did it, and you know he did it.
"Find him guilty of everything."
Sandusky's attorney said the 68-year-old former coach was being victimized by investigators who led accusers into making false claims about a generous man whose charity gave them much-needed love.
"They went after him, and I submit to you they were going to get him hell or high water, even if they had to coach witnesses," Amendola said in a sometimes angry closing argument.
If convicted, Sandusky could spend the rest of his life in state prison. He is charged with 48 counts related to 10 boys over 15 years. The jury includes nine people with ties to Penn State University.
The closing arguments came after seven days testimony, some of it graphically describing alleged abuse suffered at the hands of Sandusky, including touching in showers, fondling and in some cases forced oral or anal sex. One alleged victim — a foster child at the time — testified that Sandusky threatened him, telling him if he disclosed the assaults he would never see his family again.
Although Sandusky didn't take the stand in his own defense, McGettigan seized on an interview he gave NBC's "Rock Center" just after his arrest. In it, Sandusky seemed to stumble at times and struggled to give direct answers to questions about his conduct.
Asked if he was sexually attracted to boys, Sandusky told NBC's Bob Costas: "Sexually attracted, you know, I, I enjoy young people. I, I love to be around them. ... No, I'm not sexually attracted to young boys."
McGettigan said, "I would think that the automatic response, if someone asks you if you're a criminal, a pedophile, a child molester, or anything along those lines, would be: 'You're crazy. No. Are you nuts?'"
Prosecutors said Sandusky met his victims through The Second Mile, a charity for at-risk youth he had founded.
Eight young men testified that they were abused by the former Penn State assistant football coach, and jurors also heard about two other alleged victims through other witnesses, including another former coach.
It was the testimony of that coach, then-graduate assistant Mike McQueary, that prompted university trustees the fire longtime coach Joe Paterno and the university's president.
Sandusky has repeatedly denied the allegations, and his defense at trial included a suggestion that his accusers have a financial motive to make up stories, years after the fact.
McGettigan displayed the pictures of eight smiling children for the jury, reminding them of what he said were lives forever altered by Sandusky's abuse.
"These are childhoods ravished," he said. "Memories destroyed."
But Amendola anticipated that in his own closing statement, telling jurors not to let the prosecution tug their heartstrings.

Guide to Non-Dairy Milks
There is no need to cry over spilled milk with these animal-free dairy alternatives.
Milk might be a dish best served cold, but that isn't stopping non-dairy milk's popularity from being white hot. Made from nuts, grains, beans, and seeds, there are options for every palate and price point. Below is a handy guide for those looking for a sauce thickener, the best coffee creamer, or just wanting to kick the dairy habit.
So-y Delicious
Perhaps the most well known of the milk alternatives, soymilk was first documented being made by the ancient Chinese as early as 220 AD. Soymilk is a popular alternative to cow's milk because of its high protein content and low levels of saturated fat, though recent studies have linked increased soy consumption to diseases such as breast cancer. The studies are inconclusive, however, so if you enjoy its mild taste, use soymilk as a creamer or a base for milkshakes.
Nuts for Almond Milk
Almond milk, which is quickly gaining popularity with grocery store shoppers, is often the least expensive non-dairy milk. Its mild, nutty taste enhances morning coffee and is perfect for cookie-dunking. It is also the least caloric of the bunch at around 60 calories per one-cup serving and is a great source of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin E. It's even easy to make at home.
Loco for Coco(nut)
Thick, smooth, and perfect right out of the carton, coconut milk is made when the meat of a coconut is blended with water. The thicker consistency, which makes coconut milk a great substitute for whole milk, is attributed to its higher fat content—there are five grams in a one-cup serving. Make sure to get it out of the carton though—canned coconut milk has been used in many tropical cuisines for centuries to create delicious curries and desserts but is higher in fat and harder to gulp from a glass.
Healthy Hemp
No longer just a hippie buzzword, hemp milk (made from hemp seeds that are soaked and ground with water) is a healthful alternative to dairy. Unlike other substitutes, hemp milk contains all ten amino acids, providing a complete protein in a glass. Additionally, hemp milk contains omega-3s, calcium, and iron. While harder to find than some of its counterparts, hemp milk is nutty, earthy, and provides a serious nutritional bang for your buck.
Grain on the Brain
Rice, oats, spelt, rye, and quinoa are but a few of the grains that are now being made into milk. While these milks are higher in carbohydrates and lower in calcium and protein than soymilk, those who enjoy grain milk's thin texture and light taste can find many brands which are fortified with vitamins and minerals including calcium and vitamin B12. Great in a bowl of cereal or oatmeal, grain milk is a perfect choice at morning meals.
With all the options for dairy-free milk out there, there is no need to risk your health or the wellbeing of our moo-making friends when reaching for a tasty beverage. From baking to blending, for oatmeal or Oreos, you will enjoy milking one of these glasses of non-dairy goodness for all they're worth.

Great product excellent price
I ordered this air filter from Dennis Kirk after looking all around. I recieved it fast and the price was the best around. There's not a better place to order your parts from. They have a great sales team and prices that can't be beat. Hurry up and get yours ordered you'll be happy with your decision.
