South Island Line
South Island Line
|Heavy rail
|Districts: Central and Western, Southern
East section: 5

|1,432 mm (4 ft 8 3⁄8 in) or 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in)
The South Island Line is an under-construction extension of the Hong Kong MTR metro system. The new line would serve the southern end of Hong Kong Island, which at present is not serviced by any rail transport. This line will be divided into South Island Line (East) and South Island Line (West). The South Island Line (East) has been approved by the Executive Council of Hong Kong, and is now in construction stage. The South Island Line (East) is expected to open by the December of 2016 or February 2017. Plans for the South Island Line (West) is mentioned and revised in the 2014 governmental railway strategy report and construction is expected to begin in 2021.[1]

Original proposal[edit]
Route and stations[edit]
The MTR Corporation Limited (MTRC) submitted its first proposal for the South Island Line in May 2002. The new line was intended to promote tourism in Aberdeen. The West Island line would be an extension of the Island Line.
In the proposal, the South Island Line would be a semicircular line with nine stations, intended to serve the southern end of Hong Kong Island towards Aberdeen. It would interchange with the Island Line at University and Wan Chai, which would also be its terminus stations. The stations in between would be, from University, Cyberport, Wah Fu, South Horizons, Lei Tung, Wong Chuk Hang, Ocean Park, and Happy Valley.
On 21 January 2003, the Executive Council of Hong Kong made modifications to the South Island Line plans, to achieve a more cost-effective option and taking into account the parallel development of Route 4. However, the first proposal had some major drawbacks. Specifically, construction of West Island Line as heavy rail would not include Kennedy Town if there was no Western reclamation. There would also be environmental and traffic management challenges if West Island Line went under Des Voeux Road West. There would not be an Aberdeen station for serving the Aberdeen area, and a transfer station at Wan Chai would not cater well for the needs of cross-harbour trips (passengers would have to change to Island Line trains heading and again to Tsuen Wan Line trains at Admiralty for cross-harbour trips).
Preliminary scheme[edit]
In order to respond to the criticism directed towards the original proposal, the MTRC started a feasibility study of the lines in mid-2003 to look for cost effective options to improve the system. The study also evaluated the external benefits of the project and its impact on other modes of public transport. The company derived a modified proposal in November 2003, with three options of alignment in the South Island Line part, to address the drawbacks in the initial scheme.
Alignment and stations[edit]
The western section of the South Island Line was transferred to the West Island Line. The South Island Line will be a medium capacity system.
2002 alignment of South Island Line (East)[edit]
- South Horizons
- Lei Tung
- Wong Chuk Hang (Interchange to West Island Line)
- Ocean Park
- Happy Valley
- Wan Chai (Interchange to Island Line)
- Admiralty (Interchange to Tsuen Wan Line & Island Line)
2004 revised alignment of South Island Line (East)[edit]
The corporation handed in the Revised Alignment Scheme in March 2004. South Island Line runs from South Horizons to Admiralty in the scheme, still having three alignment options.
- South Horizons
- Lei Tung
- Wong Chuk Hang (Interchange to West Island Line)
- Ocean Park
- Happy Valley (Option B, C)
- Wan Chai (Interchange to Island Line) (Option C)
- Admiralty (Interchange to Tsuen Wan Line & Island Line) (Option A, B, C)
2005 alignment options of South Island Line[edit]
On 25 February 2005, the Panel of Transport of Legislative Council had a meeting discussing West and South Island Line. MTR has submitted a revised scheme on 22 February and an introduction to the scheme was conducted in the meeting.
The three alignment options of South Island Line were:
- Option A: Ocean Park – Happy Valley – Wan Chai – Admiralty
- This alignment is the most expensive, but has the greatest catchment.
- Option B: Ocean Park – Admiralty (no intermediate station)
- Reduces travel times from Southern District to CBD. Least expensive option.
- Option C: Ocean Park – Admiralty (with possible extension to Wan Chai and Happy Valley)
- Similar to option B, but enables further extension to Happy Valley in the future.
South Island Line (West)[edit]
It was separated from the West Island Line in the last proposal, running from University to Wong Chuk Hang:
- University (Interchange to West Island Line)
- Cyberport
- Wah Fu
- Aberdeen
- Wong Chuk Hang (Interchange to South Island Line (E))
South Island Line (East)[edit]
It runs on the same alignment of South Island Line in Revised Scheme, and the three options stated before still exist. The line starts at South Horizons:
- South Horizons
- Lei Tung
- Wong Chuk Hang (Interchange to South Island Line (W))
- Ocean Park
- Happy Valley (Option B, C)
- Wan Chai (Option B only)
- Admiralty (Option A, B, C)
Discussions on the 2005 new plan[edit]
The MTR claimed that the latest scheme had the following advantages:
- No reclamation needed, and it alleviates air and noise pollution
- Supporting tourism in Southern District: as Wong Chuk Hang will soon have nine new hotels and Ocean Park will be redeveloped
The officials from Environment, Transport and Works Bureau said that consideration of funding depends on the development of tourism in Southern District, especially after the submission of Ocean Park redevelopment project.[citation needed]
In February 2007, the government announced in a Southern District Council meeting that the South Island Line was currently at a 4th priority when it came to future railway projects, much to the anger of the district councillors present.[2] This implied that the South Island Line was unlikely to be opened to the public before 2015.
On 10 October 2007, Chief Executive Donald Tsang announced in the policy address that the South Island Line would start construction in around 2011, and will be opened in 2015. On 27 October 2007, MTR announced that stations will be built in Wong Chuk Hang and around Ocean Park, but MTR did not confirm whether the line will pass through Wan Chai and Happy Valley.[3]
Project Detail[edit]
|This section needs to be updated. (November 2014)
Interchange stations[edit]
The above scheme has interchanges at Hong Kong University, Wong Chuk Hang, & Admiralty. They have the following characteristics to enhance transfers.
- HKU station
- A new island platform will be built under the existing Island Line platforms. The upper island platform will serve Island Line trains while the lower one will serve the South Island Line (West) trains. The lower platforms can easily be accessed via escalators retrofitted on the existing Island Line platforms to the lower platforms.
- Wong Chuk Hang station
- Originally, the platform structure will be a double island platform with three tracks (Like the platform structure on Choi Hung Station). West Section trains use the center track while East Section trains use those on the two sides. A convenient cross-platform interchange can be made in both directions. However, according to the new plan, the West section platform will be only built over those in the east section.
- Admiralty
- A new island platform will be built under Queensway. Two 100-metre transfer passages will be built to connect the new station with existing station. Shortened transfer time can be made possible by installing escalators and conveyors. Possible passages can be built to connect them to the platforms of the Sha Tin to Central Link rail project.
Construction method[edit]
Most of the sections including stations will be underground. The alignment across Cyberport and the segment along the nullah of Wong Chuk Hang will be on a viaduct. Survey Management of the casting of the viaducts is being conducted by Jars Land Surveyors. A new bridge alongside the Ap Lei Chau Bridge will also be built.
More detailed construction methods on the running track and stations can be found here.
Rail system[edit]
|This section does not cite any sources. (March 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
A medium capacity system will be used. The rolling stock can be steel wheel over steel rail, similar to what MTR and KCR lines used. Rubber-tyred stock is more common in medium systems,[citation needed] and more flexible to decide the alignment of the rail lines as they can run on steep gradients and tight curves.
The final order for rolling stock for the new line consists of 10 new 3-car S-Trains using steel wheels. These trains are externally similar to the existing sets in service on the Kwun Tong Line, but will be fully automatic and driverless, being the second such line after the Disneyland Resort Line. They will operate with a frequency of three minutes during rush hour, and although stations on the new lines will be shorter than existing stations on other lines, they can be expanded as ridership demand increases.
Construction cost[edit]
According to the Progress Update by Highways Department to the Legislative Council Panel on Transport in March 2015, MTR "advised in November 2014 that the cost had increased to $15,200 million (in money-of-the-day prices)"[4]
Deferral of the scheme[edit]
On 28 May 2004, the Panel of Transport of Legislative Council held a meeting to consider the development of West and South Island Lines alongside with the highway link (Route 4).
Residential, environmental and some professional organisations support building the lines instead of highway. Rail links are more environmentally friendly and will help ease congestion of the Aberdeen Tunnel. The lines can also help sustainable development and will preserve the shoreline along western and southern Hong Kong Island.
Other transport operators and various organisations oppose the rail link, claiming that the rail link could lead to severe competition between different modes of transport, and that reduction of road transport might eventually cause job losses. Some panel members stated that the projected population growth in the south cannot support the new lines, and that the government should have a thorough plan on how to develop the Southern District before implementing the rail links.
However, some panel members suggested that the new lines could help promote tourism in the area. They asked the government to moderate the various modes of transport upon the new lines' inaugurations so as to relieve concerns from the transport operators.
Government officials stated that the low ridership of the West Rail Line and its rail incidents warranted extra planning on the new rail lines to ensure enough ridership and appropriate, cost-effective system design. Therefore, the West Island Line and South Island line project was deferred, and approval was given to the detailed planning of the highway.
Final/Executive Council scheme[edit]
On 18 December 2007, the Executive Council of Hong Kong approved the construction of the east section of South Island Line. A total of five stations will be built. The railway will be seven kilometres long, and it will take 10 minutes to travel from South Horizons Station to Admiralty Station. The railway will be a medium capacity system and cost HK$10 billion, which is 42% more than the original estimate of HK$7 billion of 2006. In contrast with previous schemes, Wan Chai Station will not be built, while the construction of Happy Valley Station is under negotiation between MTR Corporation and Hong Kong Jockey Club. It has also been suggested to rename the station to "Racecourse Station"; however, that name is already used by another existing station on the East Rail Line. The construction of the west section of South Island Line has not been confirmed yet.[5]
In June 2011 a resident of the South Horizons private residential estate at Ap Lei Chau filed suit against the government (including the chief executive, Transport Department, and Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau) in the High Court to block the construction of the South Island Line. His suit alleged that the dust resulting from the construction of the line would cause harm to trees, and that the importation of large numbers of mainland and South Asian construction workers posed a threat to public safety.[6]
Alignment and stations[edit]
The east section runs on the same alignment of option B in Revised Alignment Scheme, with Happy Valley Station omitted:
- South Horizons
- Lei Tung
- Wong Chuk Hang (Future interchange to South Island Line (W))
- Ocean Park
Happy Valley / Racecourse(omitted)
- Admiralty

The 20-year-old has made a successful comeback from 14 months on the sidelines with ankle and knee problems and has been one of the Gunners' standout performers this season.
Wenger, whose side host Swansea City in their FA Cup third-round replay on Wednesday, admits that he will have to give Wilshere a rest but does not expect to do so just yet.
"Maybe [I won't rest him] in this period, but at some stage I will do it," Wenger said of Wilshere, who has already notched up 15 appearances in all competitions this season.
"At the moment I don't think he is overloaded because he just came back very recently, and you get the feeling that he gets stronger.
"We have a good approach taking the physical analysis and statistical analysis between what the player feels and what the medical department thinks, and you have to come to a conclusion on that.
"At the moment, all these three are positives so I don't think at the moment I will rest him immediately. But it will happen."

Clearwire on cruise control. Expanding wimax service while gaining new customers.
Merlot, Sandollar and Netfuxor are able to write coherent sentences and make reasonable arguments to support their positions, it appears Wherefore_Art_Thou is challenged in this area.
Haven't seen you deny you served time in federal prison. Guess that means you did.
nutfuxor is a clwr supporter, whereas wherefore is a clown who makes up facts to support his lackluster arguments.
If anything, Merlot, Sanddollars and Wherefore are most likely the same person. I've never seen any of them deny it.
Are usernames wherefore_art_thou_whymax and netfuxor one and the same or has someone used your domain name as a username ?
So CLWR is going to launch 80 markets, convert its existing 550k subs, and only get a net gain of 50k subs? Give me a break.
If you had actually read the clarification I quoted from the Pike & Fischer, you'd realize they were adding the 600k to the existing conversion subs for 1.2M subs. Either learn to read or quit lying.
Posted by Tim McElgunn | December 2, 2009 - 7:40am
To clarify - The forecast of 600,000 at YE 2010 is for WiMAX customers. Pre-WiMAX customers bring total subs to over 570,000 (U.S.) by YE 2009, 1.2 million total subs by YE 2010. - Tim McElgunn, Chief Analyst, Pike & Fischer Broadband Advisory Service
Read more: http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/clearwire-rolls-out-new-markets-eyes-future-partners/2009-12-01#comment-7562#ixzz0YZUo7Zwq
And the 600,000 total WiMAX sub forecast by 2010 already factors conversion in the total. Doesn't change the end result.
Putting it perpsective, in two years CLWR gains fewer subscribers than AT&T did with the iPhone during the launch weekend.
Pre-wimax = existing subs. They've converted Seattle, HI, North Carolina, and Texas Markets. There's not much else to convert. Those subs will be wimax subs by Q2 at the latest next year.
CLWR is being valued on its WiMAX growth, not its obsolete legacy customer base whose churn is well known and dragging on the company's net subscriber adds. See Morrow's own statements on this topic. Q3 CC.
CLWR's WiMAX will remain below 1% market penetration two years after launch. That's niche no matter how you slice it.
We know from CWLR's own POPs target and forecasted subs, market penetration will not reach 1% for 2009 and according to independent forecasts of 600,000 subs by year end 2010 it won't hit 1% then either.

1.2M subs on 120M covered POPs. That's 1% market penetration in a year. Revenue growth at this stage tends to be exponential when it takes off, so to say that 1% penetration isn't a good stat to look at is flawed. It will double by 2012.
Quit pulling data points out of thin air -- it lends no credence to your argument, and makes you look ignorant. You and all of your dozens of aliases.
Simply saying CLWR will never be profitable b/c it is not currently profitable is, in my opinion, just as flawed.
No, your logic is wrong and you don't understand the trend.
If LTE were launched tomorrow it will also take years for it to generate meaningful subs, particularly if LTE is launched as a data-centric service like WiMAX.
The data suggests that all 4G in the U.S. will remain a niche market for probably another 3-5 years.
The main attraction for mobile wireless in the forseeable future is 3G/3.5G. But AT&T and Verizon have other revenues and can wait years for the 4G evolution to occur.
CLWR's financial success depends on 4G happening yesterday.

Portmanteau of scrotum and runt. Must commonly used to describe the genitalia of a Tongan male after he's been in a freezer, although can be applied to their women and dogs as a deadly intertribal insult.
Good lord, Fa'lofelisi, is that thing swinging between your great thighs a scrunt or a dried chinchilla?

Collected Poemsby Edna St. Vincent Millay
Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892-1950), winner in 1923 of the second annual Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, was a daring, versatile writer whose work includes plays, essays, short stories, songs, and the libretto to an opera that premiered at New York's Metropolitan Opera House to rave reviews. Millay infused new life into traditional poetic forms, bringing new hope to a generation of youth disillusioned by the political and social upheaval of the First World War. She ventured fearlessly beyond familiar poetic subjects to tackle political injustice, social discrimination, and women's sexuality in her poems and prose. In the 1920s and '30s, Millay was considered a spokesperson for personal freedom in America, particularly for women, and we turn to her lines to illuminate the social history of the period and the Bohemian lifestyle she and her friends enjoyed. Yet Millay's poetry is still decisively modern in its message, and it continues to resonate with readers facing personal and moral issues that defy the test of time: romantic love, loss, betrayal, compassion for one another, social equality, patriotism, and the stewardship of the natural world. Collected Poems features Millay's incisive and impassioned lyric poetry and sonnets, many of which are considered among the finest in the language, as well as the poet's last volume, Mine the Harvest, compiled and published in 1956 by her sister Norma Millay.

Renascence, and Other Poemsby Edna St. Vincent Millay
As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)
The Selected Poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millayby Edna St. Vincent Millay Nancy Milford
"These are the poems that made Edna St. Vincent Millay's reputation when she was young. Saucy, insolent, flip, and defiant, her little verses sting the page," writes Nancy Milford in the Introduction to The Selected Poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millay. As one of America's most beloved poets-and the winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1923-Millay defined a generation with her intoxicating voice of liberation. Most remembered for her passionate, lyrical voice and mastery of the sonnet form, Millay explores love, death, and nature in her poetry while deftly employing allusions to the classical and the romantic. In 1917, at the age of twenty, she burst onto the New York literary scene with the publication of her first book of poetry, Renascence and Other Poems, which is included in this volume.Edited by Millay biographer Nancy Milford, The Selected Poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millay also includes the collections A Few Figs from Thistles and Second April, as well as "The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver" and eight of Millay's sonnets from the early twenties.

Penguin Island (Western Australia)
Coordinates: 32°18′19″S 115°41′28″E / 32.30528°S 115.69111°E
|Penguin Island
Rockingham, Western Australia

|City of Rockingham
Penguin Island is a 12.5 ha island off the coast near Perth, Western Australia, 700 m from Rockingham. It is home to a colony of approximately 1,200 little penguins, the largest population of the birds in Western Australia. The waters surrounding the island make up the Shoalwater Islands Marine Park. (Download a map from here).
Getting to the Island[edit]
Regular ferries [1] carry tourists to and from the island and other marine-park sights, the journey taking 5 minutes from Mersey point. The island can also be reached by private boat, kayaking, swimming, or walking across a tidal sandbar, which is often exposed above sea level at low tide for a large portion of its 700-metre length, however at high tide, most of the sandbar is under varying depths of water. The Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) advises against the sandbar walk as weather conditions can change quickly, making the crossing dangerous, which has resulted in several drownings.[2][3]
Island Facilities[edit]
Visitors should take their own supply of food and drink, since none can be purchased on Penguin Island, though there is a picnic area with seating and water taps, and waterless composting toilets.
Litter bins are not provided on the island and all visitors are required to take away their own rubbish. This is to remove potential food sources for destructive animals such as black rats, which have previously led to a reduction in the penguin population. In 2013 a successful baiting program was conducted to eliminate a rat population that had become established on the island.[4]
Island Features[edit]
In addition to the colony of little penguins there are many other sights including nesting seabirds and a 500-strong colony of pelicans.
Penguin Island has many geographical features, such as cliffs, small sea caves, headlands, beaches, coves, notches and natural bridges. There are also numerous wave-cut platforms.
Significant areas of Penguin Island include North Rock, Pelican Bluff, North Beach, McKenzies Well, South Beach, Abalone Point, and Surfers Beach.
There are numerous lookouts, boardwalks and walkways throughout most of the island. Some areas are fenced off to the public to protect wildlife and lessen dune erosion.
Rescue Penguins[edit]
A small population of rescued penguins are kept in a dedicated enclosure on the island (know as the Discovery Centre) which was built by the Department of Environment and Conservation in 1987. As well as being a sanctuary to care for injured wild penguins, it is also the home of the 10 resident penguins that have been badly injured, orphaned as chicks or born in captivity, and it is unlikely that they would survive in the wild. It has been designed to reflect the penguins natural sandy, coastal scrub environment and includes a saltwater pond with viewing panels to watch the little penguins swim. Penguin feedings are held three times daily by a Wildlife ranger.
Little Penguin Population[edit]
Spotting wild little penguins at the island is unusual as for most of the year, daylight hours are spent at sea chasing fish,[5] and visitors are strictly prohibited from being on the island except during specified daylight hours from mid-September to early June.
The little penguin population which breeds on Penguin Island is genetically distinct and in decline. In 2007 there were between 1600 and 2000 little penguins on Penguin Island during breeding months. By 2011, the number had dropped to about 1000. Penguins have been observed taking longer foraging trips leading to chick malnutrition and starvation. Prey depletion and climate change are considered to be major pressures on the breeding population. A proposal to construct a marina at Point Peron is also considered a future threat. A number of rescued penguins are kept in a dedicated enclosure for visitors to the island to observe.[6]
Little penguins also breed on nearby Garden Island, 6.5 km to the north. The two colonies are considered as a single meta-population. In 2007, the meta-population was estimated to include a total of 2369 individuals.[7]
Historically, the penguins of Penguin Island have been victims of dog attacks[8] and shooting by holiday-makers.[9] An informal assessment of the Penguin Island colony was made by Vincent Serventy in 1946. After several visits, he estimated the colony to number approximately 500 pairs.[10] In the 1940s concern was expressed for the viability of the penguin colony on Penguin Island, due to combined threats of human landing parties with guns and dogs, occasional fires, and an abundance of rabbits which were denuding the island of its former vegetation and accelerating its erosion. Rabbits were believed to have been introduced to the island in the 1920s, and numbered approximately four to five thousand in the late 1940s.[11] By 1950, it had become an illegal act to take a dog to Penguin Island.[8]
Penguins were present on Penguin Island in the 1900s,[12] 1910s and 1920s.[13][14][15] Seals were also known to haul out on the island around this time.[16]
Island Residents[edit]
Aboriginal people
Penguin Island was probably first used by the Aboriginal people who have believed to have been in the area up to 12,000 years ago. A local aboriginal legend tells the story of Singing Rock located just to the north of Penguin Island. Apparently a local girl who ran off with her lover against tribal law was chased and caught. Her lover was speared to death while her punishment was to be imprisoned inside the rock. Legend has it that you can still hear the girl singing out to her lover today.
Seaforth McKenzie
The first person known to have lived on the Island was an eccentric Canadian by the name of Seaforth McKenzie, who first squatted on the island in 1914.[5]
Paul Seaforth McKenzie was born in Novia Scotia, Canada, in 1853. At 18 he travelled to Australia and in 1876 he married Sarah Stanner in Sydney, with whom he had five children. The family moved to New Zealand, and in 1890 Seaforth went to work one day and instead of returning home, he boarded a boat to Australia and effectively abandoned his family.
His nomadic lifestyle continued and it is unsure of when he arrived in WA, however he is known to have been a builder and built several three-roomed villas in Osborne Park. In 1914 McKenzie first squatted on Penguin Island, and in 1918 was granted a lease of the island. He converted a several of the limestone caves on the island into holiday accommodation, although these were designed with campers in mind - with shelves, fireplaces and rock ledges that were turned into beds. Some of the "rooms" are still visible today
McKenzie would not accept payment for any lodgings or food on the island, preferring a system of favour or barter. As the island became more popular further caves were hollowed out and crudely furnished as a library and a small store where visitors could manage their own account by leaving a fair amount of money or something of equal value. McKenzie also excavated a grand ballroom which was known as the palace, and it was here that he was crowned the 'King of Penguin Island' at a grand ceremony.
McKenzie left the island when his lease expired in 1926.
In 1932 he returned home to his wife Sarah and children in New Zealand after an absence of 45 years. His explanation being that he had been suffering with amnesia and had only just regained his memory of his family.
Today some of the caves and their features are still visible on the island, as is the well dug by McKenzie.

Nice, clean hotel - good value
We stayed here before heading to the Mid Ohio Race Track the following morning, which is just a pretty, 10-15 minute drive away through the neighborhood behind the hotel. The hotel was very clean, nicely decorated and seemed relatively quiet for as booked as it was which says something about the soundproofing. Free breakfast was well stocked in the morning. TV had many channels and there was no problem with using their wi-fi. If you are staying with a family, the suite is very large and not that much more than a regular room. I suggest booking it because you will not be on top of each other and won't have to sit on your bed all day/night. There was a couch, a chase lounge and 2 chairs at the large desk and enough room between the coffee table and beds for 2 people to do aerobics - no joke - huge room! We loved it.

July 02, 2012
Congress passed legislation Friday to keep the interest rate on subsidized Stafford student loans from doubling to 6.8 percent, but only after weeks of negotiations and just two days before the increase was due to take effect.
The wide margins of the final votes in the Senate (74-19) and the House (373-52) belied weeks of arguing between Democrats and Republicans over how to pay for the $6.7 billion cost of maintaining the interest rate at 3.4 percent for another year.
The rate freeze means an estimated 7.4 million college students impacted will save an average of $1,000 in interest over the lives of their loans.
The final resolution of how to pay for the rate freeze included a provision limiting the loans to 150 percent of a student's program term—for instance, six years for students in four-year programs.
Meanwhile, even with the rate freeze, some students could face higher costs because of separate recent student loan program changes, such as a requirement that all students begin paying interest on their loans as soon as they graduate instead of having a six-month grace period.
The student loan interest rate freeze was included in broader legislation that also extended federal transportation funding and renewed the federal flood insurance program.
Because the rate freeze approved by Congress is good for just one year, lawmakers will have to address the issue again next spring and early summer.

DUBAI (AFP) - Title-holders Pohang Steelers slumped to a 2-1 quarter-final first leg defeat against Iranian side Zobahan on Wednesday to leave the defence of their AFC Champions League crown in the balance.
Mahdi Rajabzadeh's 75th-minute penalty, awarded after Jung Hong-youn had fouled Igor Castro in the area, proved the difference between the two sides.
Castro had given the Iranian league leaders the lead after 18 minutes when a Rajabzadeh corner was headed into his path by Mohammad Ghazi. The Brazilian turned neatly and shot past goalkeeper Shin Hwa-yung.
His compatriot Mota equalised in the 55th minute when a right-wing cross from Kim Jae-sung was not cleared properly by Farshid Talebi.
His header fell to Mota, who shot into the bottom corner.
Earlier, Seongnam Ilhwa continued their impressive recent form to crush fellow South Koreans Suwon Bluewings 4-1 in the first leg of their quarter-final.
But while Seongnam made the most of home advantage, another K-League team, Jeonbuk Motors, failed to fire and now have a huge mountain to climb after losing 2-0 to Saudi giants Al Shabab.
Seongnam's Macedonian target man Dzenan Radoncic opened the scoring in the eighth minute before Yeom Ki-Hun equalised for the visitors, who saw their nine-match unbeaten streak ended over the weekend in the domestic league.
Seven-time Korean champions Seongnam have a formidable front line and former Colombia international Mauricio Molina made it 2-1 just past the half-hour mark.
With former player Shin Tae-Yong now coaching the team and directing operations from the touchline, they increased their advantage in the second half with Radoncic finding the net again in the 67th minute.
Song Ho-Young grabbed a fourth six minutes from time to leave Suwon with a mountain to climb in the return leg next week.
Jeonbuk Motors, the 2006 champions, also have their work cut out after Al Shabab got the better of them with second-half strikes from Fahad Hamad and recently-arrived Uruguay forward Juan Manuel Olivera.
It was an unexpected result for Al Shabab, who have made a poor start in the Saudi League and lie a lowly ninth after managing only one win from their opening four games.
Al Hilal made it a night to remember for Saudi football when they defeated Al Gharafa from neighbouring Qatar 3-0 with goals from Mohammed Al-Shalhoub, Ahmed Al-Fraidi and substitute Waleed Algizani.
Reports this week suggested that Sven Goran Eriksson could become their new boss when Eric Gerets leaves to coach Morocco's national side.
Gerets is set to depart the Saudi powerhouse once their Champions League campaign ends.
The second legs are played on September 22, with the final at Tokyo's National Stadium on November 13.

Tired teacher. That is, REtired teacher.
"Another Great Conroy Book"
Great but sad story. It truly made my heart ache. Conroy is such a great writer that I could just listen all day. He makes me believe I am right in the middle of the action.
Addicted to audiobooks & podcasts. 5 Stars=I Loved It, 4 Stars=Enjoyed it Thoroughly, 3=Kinda Good, 2=Bad/Boring, 1=Complete Waste of Credit
"I'm feeling ambiguous"
I'm on the fence with this one - the writing is good and the narration is great - so why wasn't I able to just give it 4 stars all the way across? Maybe it's because this is supposed to be auto-biographical and I had a really hard time buying the author's portrayal of the events. It all seemed so overly romantic and watered-down. I did enjoy 90% of the book, and found myself looking forward to listening - but if the end had come sooner, I wouldn't have been disappointed.
Besides incessant listening to audiobooks, I also read on my Kindle at night, birdwatch, garden (roses, daylilies), and do genealogy.
"A must read . . . highly recommended!"
Another winner by Pat Conroy! It s a fascinating story by the author who actually attended and graduated from The Citadel. He assures the reader at the onset of the book that his description of the traditions of the school are as true as he could make it. With believable characters that you really care about and a wonderful narration, this audiobook is one of the most enjoyable I have listened to. It is funny in parts, also sad and harrowing, with a satisfying ending. What more could you ask for?
"Wow this was great! A++"
This was a very good book. A little slow at the start "not the kind of book I normaly get" but way more than makes up for it at the end. This is a book you will not regret. Also the narrater is very good and consistent.
Erstwhile librarian and tech salesperson. Favorite genres - history, biography, and mystery.
"I wish I had listened to the abridged version."
This was very painful to listen to. Pat Conroy writes very luscious prose but the descriptions of the atrocities at the Citadel were too awful to listen to in such detail. I often find that some of the books that I hate when I am listening to are some of the best when I think back later. I am not sure how I will feel looking back on this in a couple of months.
Probably not. I have read a couple of books by Pat Conroy before and, although he writes beautifully, I don't really like him as a character in his own books.
He was just too harsh at some times and too wimpy at others.
No - not for the length of the unabridged book. This would have been better as a novella.
Avid audiobook listener and reader. I work in the tech industry, but like to go outside my comfort zone with fiction and non-fiction.
"An Engaging Story"
The story was interesting and engaging.
The story of the main character about his experience at The Citadel
He brought out each character with his skillful and subtle voices. It was amazing.
The Ten
The story was excellent, but it lost me a bit at the end. Without giving any of it away, it seemed to get melodramatic and I was at the point where I just wanted it to end.
"Really great introduction to Pat Conroy's books."
The book is marvelous, both the audio version and the printed one.I'm not a big fan of military fiction in general and I have to admit that I chose this one because of the narrator Dan John Miller. But when I started to listen and read it simultaneously I couldn't put it down and finished it in less than 3 days.The narration of this book is just perfect. I can't imagine how it could be better. All characters, male and female alike, sounded perfect, so perfect in fact, that I didn't just heard, I saw them as they spoke, acted, thought.
I don't remember when I was so moved and captivated by the novel before. The story itself is not just about military college and growing up of young men. It's about so much more. It's about acceptance, choices and beliefs, it's just about life.The brutal honest of the book will make you laugh, cry, bite your lips, dig your nails into your palms and cringe and blush, and it will make you to think over and to question again and again your own honesty and moral codes and that's in my point of view is the mark of literature masterpiece. And do you really need to compare real masterpiece to anything else?
All in all I was so impressed that I decided to read more of Pat Conroy's books and chose to buy audio versions and kindle editions of his two other novels – The Water is Wide, again narrated by Dan John Miller and The Prince of Tide (according to critics one of the best works of Mr. Conroy) narrated by Frank Muller.
"One of the Best Audiobooks Ever!"
Pat Conroys writes prose that sounds like poetry when read by Dan John Miller. Although The Lords of Discipline is often referred to as a "coming of age" story it is much more than that. It is told retrospectively so the sensibilities of an adult man inform the life events of a boy. What is remarkable about that feat is that it is done without cynicism.
Pat nails "it" in this book. It being life.
This book was excellent excellent excellent! I couldn't stop listening. The story and narration were both top notch!
Tell us about yourself!
"Another Pat Conroy hit !"
Actually this was the second time, yes probably once more as it is a timeless story
Conroy's "Great Santini" whose characters were as unlikeable as these were likeable. Both were tinged with Catholicism, honor, duty, concience
Probably Pig because he was so complex
it made my insides twist, what is right or wrong in what circumstance?
Pat Conroy never fails to satisfy.

Well Tom Brady's petition for a rehearing of the Deflategate case was denied today by the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. So as of right now, Brady's four game suspension has been reinstated for the beginning of next season. But all of us know that Brady still isn't going down without a fight…again.
Tom Brady and the Patriots have two options. He can appeal his case to the United States Supreme Court, where a higher court would reexamine the lower court's decision on the case. Or he can accept the suspension and move on…yeah that's not going to happen. The problem is, there is a very low chance that the US Supreme Court takes his case. But hey, we've seen Brady work miracles in the past so who knows what's going to happen.
Brady's legal team can also apply for a stay. This means that if the stay is accepted, Brady would be allowed to play the four games while the Supreme Court makes their decision or declines to accept his case. The issue with this is if Brady is granted a stay and ends up losing the case, he would have to serve his four game suspension most likely in the middle to end of the regular season, which would be worse. So Brady and his legal team have many factors to consider when making their decision.
Many people believe Brady is hurting his team or being selfish for what he is doing but he is doing what he believes is right. He believes that he is innocent and he will never admit to something he hasn't done. I mean he may take this to the Supreme Court, this is some serious stuff. If Brady was guilty, do you really think he would go through all this trouble and stress just so he isn't suspended four games? I mean come on, this whole thing is still unbelievable to me.
However it's not over yet, once again there is still hope for Tom Brady and Patriots Nation. All we can hope for is justice to be served and for Brady to finally receive his innocence. This final step in the legal system really is going to be a Hail Mary for the Patriots.
Free Brady
