Be it enacted by the Senate aced House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That section 2 of the Act entitled "An Act to authorize the segregation and expenditure of trust funds held in joint ownership by the Shoshone and Arapahoe Tribes of the Wind River Reservation", approved May 19, 1947 (ch. 80, 61 Stat. 102), as emended, is hereby amended to read as follows:
"SEC. 2. The Secretary of the Treasury, upon request of the Secretary of the Interior, is authorized and directed to establish a trust fund account for each tribe and shall make such transfer of funds on the books of his department as may be necessary to effect the purpose of section 1 of this Act: Provided, That interest shall accrue on the principal fund only, at the rate of 4 per centum per annum, and shall be credited to the interest trust fund accounts established by this section: Provided further, That all future revenues and receipts derived from the Wind River Reservation under any and all laws, and the proceeds from any judgment for money against the United States hereafter paid jointly to the Shoshone and Arapahoe Tribes of the Wind River Reservation, shall be divided in accordance with section 1 of this Act and credited to the principal trust fund accounts established herein; and the proceeds from any judgment for money against the United States hereafter paid to either of the tribes singly shall be credited to the appropriate principal trust fund account."
Section 3 of the Act entitled "An Act to authorize the segregation and expenditure of trust funds held in joint ownership by the Shoshone and Arapahoe Tribes of the Wind River Reservation", approved May 19, 1947 (ch. 80, 61 Stat. 102), as amended, is hereby amended to read as follows:
"SEC. 3. Notwithstanding any other provision of existing law, the trust funds credited to the Shoshone Tribe and the Arapahoe Tribe, respectively, under the provisions of this Act shall be available for expenditure or for advance to the tribes for such purposes as may be requested by the business council of the tribe concerned and approved by the Secretary of the Interior, or such official as may be designated by him: Provided, That the Secretary of the Interior is hereby directed to make available out of the trust funds of the Shoshone Tribe the sum of $7,500 for the purpose of making emergency and educational loans on the authority and responsibility of the Shoshone Tribe, through its business council, without liability to the United States and free from regulation or approval by the Secretary of the Interior: Provided further, That, commencing as soon after the date this proviso becomes effective as the Secretary of the Interior determines may be practicable in order to change from the existing quarterly payment system, but not later than January 1, 1959, 85 per centum of said trust funds shall be paid per capita to the members of the respective tribes
Page 819
in equal monthly installments on the first day of each month, or as near thereto as practicable, or, with the approval of the Secretary of the Interior, at such more frequent intervals as the tribes may request. The amount of the monthly, payments during any one calendar year shall be determined by the Secretary of the Interior on the basis of estimated anticipated income for that calendar year: Provided further, That the Secretary may increase or decrease the amount of the monthly payments in the light of actual receipts during the calendar year, and in order to avoid the omission of a payment or a reduction in the amount that would cause unnecessary hardship the Secretary may permit the total monthly payments for a year to exceed 85 per centum of the actual receipts for that year and deduct the excess from the receipts of the following or succeeding years before determining the amount of the monthly payments for such succeeding years: Provided further, That said per capita payments shall not be subject to any lien or claim of any nature against any of the members of said tribes unless the business council of such member shall consent thereto in writing, except as to reimbursable Treasury loans made to individual members of either tribe which may be due to the United States, and except as to irrigation charges owed by individual Indians to the United States with respect to lands for which water is requested and received by said individual Indians, and with respect to lands that are determined by the Secretary of the Interior to be properly classified under existing law on the basis of the survey undertaken by the Secretary after the amendment of this Act on July 25, 1956 (70 Stat. 642): Provided further, That quarterly per capita payments under this Act shall continue without interruption until the monthly per capita payments are put into effect on or before January 1, 1959."
Approved, August 8, 1958.

By Peter Newland
Kimberly-Clark's decision to close its pulp mill and leave town was the last chapter in a century of heavy industry on Everett's waterfront. People are now thinking about new uses for the city's urban shoreline.
Even though they have disappeared, up and down I-5, Everett is still famous for its smokestacks. Locally, nobody misses the smoke, but we all miss the high-paying jobs that helped build our houses, buy a lot of cars and send so many of us to college.
Missing those jobs won't create new ones.
That's why the City Council's recent decision to limit Kimberly-Clark's defunct mill site to water-dependent industry was a mistake. It tries to preserve the status quo even though that ship has already left the dock. If Everett's downtown core is ever to be vital again, we need to rethink our goals like successful, forward-looking cities and towns across America have done for as long as I can remember.
When you look up and down the west coast, it's obvious that restricting 60 acres in downtown Everett for deep-water ships doesn't make sense. Ports from San Pedro, Calif., to Prince Rupert, B.C., are bracing for losses next year when Panama opens larger locks to handle ships with five times the capacity of the current Panama vessels. Ports on the east coast are spending billions to handle the new container ships that will completely bypass the west coast.
Communities that focus on the past tend to end up with abandoned factories and empty docks. Communities that look ahead and encourage new uses usually do well. They bring vigor and economic vitality to their shorelines.
Now that the mill buildings have been razed and the view is much improved, it is easier to see the wisdom of connecting Everett's struggling downtown core to the central waterfront with a mix of modern uses.
I don't think the city council will let our central waterfront languish for years before it revisits the issue and settles on a plan that can bring vibrant growth to the city's downtown core. I think we are at the beginning of a promising discussion.
During the city council debate, one member, Brenda Stonecipher, urged the council to approve a promising, forward-looking plan that would not threaten to saddle taxpayers with the property. Privately, other council members question whether it's desirable or even possible to attract deep-water-dependent industry to the city's downtown waterfront. They say it was less a planning decision than a political one. For sure it was not a useful decision.
It won't achieve any of the goals identified by the citizens who responded when the city asked them for ideas. It won't create many new jobs. It won't connect downtown Everett to the central waterfront. It won't encourage development on surrounding land. Those who have jobs on what is left of our working waterfront won't likely see any benefit from locking up the Kimberly site for "water-dependent" uses.
It's no secret that Kimberly-Clark would like the Port of Everett to take the pulp mill site off its hands. But that would be costly for taxpayers. Kimberly-Clark is a Fortune 500 company that made a business decision to dismantle its mill and leave town. It has all the resources necessary to clean up its property, put it in private hands and keep it on the tax rolls. It doesn't need taxpayer help.
The Port of Everett has an unfortunate development history. It has announced one grand plan after another and has failed to deliver. It would be a mistake to depend on the port to make Everett vibrant again. It already has more underutilized and unused property than it knows what to do with.
Drive across the Snohomish River on old Highway 99 and look upstream where Weyerhaeuser's Mill B used to stand. The port bought that property with public money and removed it from the tax rolls. It used more public money to clean up the property and install expensive infrastructure. It sits there idle as it has now for 30 years.
If you look downstream, you'll see the old Weyerhaeuser Kraft Mill site. It was purchased with private capital and it's never been off the tax rolls. The site is bustling with activity and good jobs. Ironically, some of the people working there are refugees from port development efforts that failed.
Successful, forward-looking communities look at empty docks and abandoned factories as a chance to start over and modernize. Since the invention of the steam engine, whether it's Sydney, Australia; Boston, Massachusetts; Seattle, Washington, or Grand Haven, Michigan, they have all changed and keep changing to remain vibrant and competitive.
Baltimore, Maryland, is perhaps the most familiar example of a waterfront moving from vibrant to vacant to vibrant again. In the 1970s, Baltimore's leaders realized the city would be in dire financial straits if they allowed their waterfront to languish. They decided to redevelop the city's ramshackle inner harbor. Their years of work and millions of dollars of public and private investment have added residential and commercial space to an empty harbor and made Baltimore's renewal an overall success.
To see what it takes to transition a shoreline from vacant to vital closer to home, look what is happening in Seattle. Forty years ago, Seattle was tearing down abandoned factories and building container terminals. Today they are removing the viaduct, digging a huge tunnel and planning to reconnect their downtown core to the harbor and encourage people to live there, work there, do business there and enjoy the waterfront. One prominent developer has already proposed converting the large container terminal west of CenturyLink Field to more diversified uses as container traffic begins to dwindle.
Successful efforts begin with two essential questions: What is the vision for this waterfront? What happens after the vision?
In designating the Kimberly mill site "water-dependent," the city paid deference to the past. If we want a vibrant future and want to attract people and commerce to come here, we need to go back and answer the essential questions.
Let's begin the conversation with the first question: what is the vision for our waterfront? Together let's craft a realistic, 21st-century answer. If we put our minds to it we can make Everett the most livable city on the I-5 corridor.

The twelve day Christmas
season begins on Christmas Eve, which the Spanish call Noche-buena,
and ends on January 6th with Epiphany, also know as the Day of the
Three Kings. This is the time for the exchange of presents. Christmas
day is a time set aside primarily for family reunions.
On Noche-buena, also
known as the "Night of Good Tidings," the birth of the
Christ Child is welcomed in a very festive manner. Crowds of young
people line the streets expressing their gaiety in singing and dancing.
Tambourines, guitars, gourd rattles and castanets lend to the excitement
in the air.
Every country has its
favorite holiday sweet or delicacy. In Spain it is turrón,
a nougat or almond candy that everyone eats. Other traditional holiday
foods include saffron flavored rice (paella), caramel custard (flan),
roast turkey, roasted chestnuts and marzipan.
Spanish Christmas trees
often feature wooden and straw ornaments, electric lights and shiny
colored balls. But the most important decorative element is the
nacimiento, or nativity scene. In many homes building the nacimiento
is a family project involving everyone from grandparents to children.

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
Here's the right answer while waiting for HRs wife to reply. US Supreme Court justices do not advertise their party affiliation because they're not supposed to consider partisan ideology when making decisions. Unfortunately, see my remarks above where certain justices vote party line most of the time on big issues.
Of course, they're party affiliated. They still have the right to vote after being elected as justice. They're just not supposed to brag about it or let it influence their decisions but as we see they do and it does influence them.
The president appoints the justices so that makes it politically affiliated right there. Presidents campaign to put judges in with their views. Boosters support candidates just to get justices in with their views. Look at the judges on the left especially the last two put in by OBY, extreme liberals - Kagen, Sottlemeyer plus Ginsberg before that. All DEMs all the time at least in all the major decisions like this one.
Nixon got a bunch of conservative judges in that is affecting the court now like in this last decision however, it's now more difficult to put conservatives in. Reagan nominated Borke, a Christian conservative and the liberals in congress blocked him out. He then nominated Kennedy who was moderate and more to their liking and was unanimously confirmed, and he is always called the swing vote because he voted liberal on so many decisions. He was expected to on O BUMMER CARE but Roberts turned out to be the swing vote.
Same thing with Roberts. W thought he was putting a conservative in. Then again maybe he wasn't because he has crossed the line, same as Kennedy and in the most important decision of our life time - OBUMMER CARE.
It was funny but Karl Rove was on the nominating committee for a judge that recommended to Bush. Rove asked who he most respected that served on the court. He named a guy who wavered on many issues not siding with any one group and that's what he became but W still thought he was getting a conservative to placate those who elected him.
Same with Souter. His pop nominated Souter who was supposed to be a conservative. They grilled him with the questions and he almost dropped out when again, Congress DEMs tried to stonewall him but he answered the questions the way the conservatives wanted but then rebelled once on the bench.
Finally he gets in and voted liberal most of the time including the Florida re-count after the Bush-Gore election. His fellow GOPs voted for Bush but he voted against the family that put him in. However, when he retired he met with the conservative branch to see how long they would still be there and they said a while longer, enough time for another GOP to come in and maintain the balance of power. In
the end he cared or somewhat care for the GOP ideology.
In short, make no mistake about it. These are party affiliated positions and people are nominated by presidents who think their decisions will inflict his party's views at least on the major cases.
It doesn't work that way as we have seen.
That's the way it is.

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
This is why it's getting hard to nominate a conservative judge. From WIKI:
This is strictly party affiliation. See groups that stopped his confirmation.
Civil Liberties Union also opposed William Rehnquist and Samuel Alito.
Even JFK insisted on an ideological appointment to the Court when he chose Arthur Goldberg, a distinguished lawyer and darling of the unions - ALL DEMS - ALL THE TIME.
U.S. Supreme Court nomination[edit]
Main article: Robert Bork Supreme Court nomination
Bork (right) with President Ronald Reagan, 1987
President Reagan nominated Bork for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court on July 1, 1987 to replace Lewis Powell. A hotly contested United States Senate debate over Bork's nomination ensued. Opposition was partly fueled by civil rights and women's rights groups concerned with Bork's opposition to the authority claimed by the federal government to impose standards of voting fairness upon the states (at his confirmation hearings for the position of Solicitor General, he supported the rights of Southern states to impose a poll tax),[19] and his stated desire to roll back civil rights decisions of the Warren and Burger courts. Bork was one of only three Supreme Court nominees, along with William Rehnquist and Samuel Alito, to ever be opposed by the American Civil Liberties Union.[20] Bork was also criticized for being an "advocate of disproportionate powers for the executive branch of Government, almost executive supremacy",[15] most notably, according to critics, for his role in the Saturday Night Massacre.
Before Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell's expected retirement on June 27, 1987, some Senate Democrats had asked liberal leaders to form "a solid phalanx" to oppose whomever President Ronald Reagan nominated to replace him, assuming it would tilt the court rightward.[21] Democrats also warned Reagan there would be a fight if Bork were nominated.[22] Nevertheless, Reagan nominated Bork for the seat on July 1, 1987.
Following Bork's nomination to the Court, Sen. Ted Kennedy took to the Senate floor with a strong condemnation of Bork declaring:
Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is—and is often the only—protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy ... President Reagan is still our president. But he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Irangate, reach into the muck of Watergate and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans. No justice would be better than this injustice.[23][24]
Bork responded, "There was not a line in that speech that was accurate."[25] In an obituary of Kennedy, The Economist remarked that Bork may well have been correct, "but it worked."[25] Bork also contended in his best-selling[26] book, The Tempting of America, that the brief prepared for Sen. Joe Biden, head of the Senate Judiciary Committee, "so thoroughly misrepresented a plain record that it easily qualifies as world class in the category of scurrility."[27]
Television advertisements narrated by Gregory Peck attacked Bork as an extremist. Kennedy's speech successfully fueled widespread public skepticism of Bork's nomination. The rapid response to Kennedy's "Robert Bork's America" speech stunned the Reagan White House, and the accusations went unanswered for two and a half months.[28]
During debate over his nomination, Bork's video rental history was leaked to the press. His video rental history was unremarkable, and included such harmless titles as A Day at the Races, Ruthless People, and The Man Who Knew Too Much. Writer Michael Dolan, who obtained a copy of the hand-written list of rentals, wrote about it for the Washington City Paper.[29] Dolan justified accessing the list on the ground that Bork himself had stated that Americans only had such privacy rights as afforded them by direct legislation. The incident led to the enactment of the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act.[30]
To pro-choice rights legal groups, Bork's originalist views and his belief that the Constitution does not contain a general "right to privacy" were viewed as a clear signal that, should he become a Justice on the Supreme Court, he would vote to reverse the Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade. Accordingly, a large number of groups mobilized to press for Bork's rejection, and the resulting 1987 Senate confirmation hearings became an intensely partisan battle. Bork was faulted for his bluntness before the committee, including his criticism of the reasoning underlying Roe v. Wade.[citation needed]
On October 23, 1987, the Senate denied Bork's confirmation, with 42 Senators voting in favor and 58 voting against. Two Democratic Senators, David Boren (D-OK) and Ernest Hollings (D-SC), voted in his favor, with 6 Republican Senators (John Chafee (R-RI), Bob Packwood (R-OR), Arlen Specter (R-PA), Robert Stafford (R-VT), John Warner (R-VA), and Lowell P. Weicker, Jr. (R-CT)) all voting against him.[31]
The vacant seat on the court to which Bork was nominated eventually went to Judge Anthony Kennedy who was unanimously approved by the Senate, 97-0.[32]
Bork, unhappy with his treatment in the nomination process, resigned his appellate-court judgeship in 1988.[33]
Bork as verb[edit]

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
Like I posted above, presidential candidates campaign to put their views on the SC like here:
In his presidential campaign, Nixon had pledged to appoint a strict constructionist as Chief Justice.
From Wiki but it's spot on.

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
It was also interesting but depressing to see another land mark decision made at the same time as O BUMMER CARE where the court effectively erased the border of Arizona and Mexico.
Kennedy and Roberts voted with the liberal branch in regard to
immigration searches and seizure.
Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
Two big problems with this ruling.
1) Hobby Lobby's internal logic is inconsistent. If they protested on the basis that birth control prevents pregnancy, they should not still cover vasectomies. But they do still cover vasectomies. That is just hypocrisy. That's hypocrisy on an obvious and repugnant level.
2) The ruling, as wickedsolo pointed out, opens the door for a lot in the future. The ruling essentially states that so long as a corporation believes something is true, the government should act as though the something is true. Hobby Lobby expressed belief that birth control is an abortifacient. Birth control is not an abortifacient. So, now, 100% demonstrably false belief is supposed to be respected? Kowtowed to, treated with kid gloves? No.
This is a somewhat horrific ruling that I see changing resoundingly sometime in my life, probably in the next 10 years.My Ravens Blog: Brittany Rants About Football

SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
Did any of you read the case facts or the ruling? Because it certainly appears some of you have not and instead have believed the rhetoric from the extreme sides in this case.
For one, there were only 4 types of contraception Hobby Lobby (on behalf of their employees) opposed -- two forms of the morning after pill and two types of IUD's -- which they believed amounted to defacto abortions since they didn't allow the fertilized egg to attach to the uterus. All other forms of birth control are fine in their eyes, including vasectomy, birth control pills, condoms, etc, so I'm not sure where the hypocrisy claims are coming from.
Second, this ruling isn't bestowing religious freedoms to a corporation as many are portraying it. It's a recognition that the employees of said cooperation have a right to free exercise of their religion at the work place. That's a distinction many on the left are refusing to accept.
Lastly, the slippery slope argument about what it means in the future is a fallacy. Any SCOTUS ruling can be labeled as such so it means everything and nothing at the same time.

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
This is what Ginsberg meant when she said mine fied and why she is worried as the rest of the losing side.
But the fate of the Obama administration's so-called "accommodation" for religious non-profits is the subject of other lawsuits that are making their way through the lower courts now.
The religious organizations that are plaintiffs in the 51 non-profit lawsuits filed so far are diverse in faith backgrounds and in purpose. They include religious hospitals, ministries, colleges and universities—including my alma maters, Franciscan University and the University of Notre Dame—as well as orders of priests and nuns, such as Priests for Life and the Little Sisters of the Poor.

This issue that you mention above is very much related/similar to the Hobby Lobby issue. In fact, the Court issued an order on Thursday in Wheaton College v. Burwell indicating there is likely to be problems with the 'accommodation' requirements. The three female Justices dissented on the order, but their dissent was nonsensical to say the least. In fact, Sotomayor, who wrote the dissent, made it obvious she completely misunderstood the Hobby Lobby decision (by Alito). It is a rather embarrassing mistake, or at least it should be.
The issue concerning the "accommodation" basically comes down to the issue of whether the entity who is objecting to the coverage and seeking the 'accommodation' has to fill out and sign EBSA Form 700 and submit it to their insurance provider (as well as to the federal government).
The Form essentially requires the insurance provider to provide the 'contraceptives' without charging the objecting entity, so supposedly for 'free.' Besides the transparent accounting gimmick (as if something can actually be without 'cost' just because everyone pretends someone else is 'paying' for it), the issue is that the Form is seen as a directive from the objector, to the third party provider, to provide the objected-to contraceptives. These objecting entities do not want to be involved in providing these contraceptives at all, not just in terms of monetary cost but also in terms of being in a chain of directives to provide them.
The temporary Court order in Wheaton College v. Burwell indicated that the College does not have to fill out the Form or send anything to the third party provider, but rather has to simply send an official letter of objection to the mandate to the government. At which point the government can/should, if it wishes, send whatever it wants to the third party provider demanding it provide the 'free' contraceptives to the employees.
In short, the issue comes down to who tells the insurance provider they have to provide the 'free' contraceptives, the objector (through Form 700) or the government. The former can be seen as the objector being involved in the providing of the contraceptives, the latter cannot.
As for Sotomayor's confusion regarding Alito's Hobby Lobby decision, she incorrectly asserts Alito indicated that the "accommodation" (as it currently stands) was endorsed by his decision, when in reality, he specifically said he was making no judgment on that except to show that in the Hobby Lobby decision, it clearly indicates that the government was not using the "least restrictive" way for it to achieve its goals of getting Hobby Lobby's employees the 'contraceptives,' as it had already designed a 'less restrictive' accommodation for non-profit religious groups. That Sotomayor either is not intelligent enough to understand the plain text of the decision or is not honest enough to present it as it was written, is very sad, but frankly it doesn't surprise me.

Re: SC strikes down contraceptive coverage in O BUMMER CARE
These are six more cases field in the court with the last two in Feb so I think they're covered with today's decision or are they asking for more?
Heritage reports that two more lawsuits have been filed against the Obama administration over Obamacare's HHS mandate, by religiously affiliated organizations, added to the previous filed brings the total up to six.
That is not counting the dozen plus attorney generals for a variety of states that have already indicated they too will be filing court challenges against the so-called Contraception mandate that also includes forcing religious groups to offer insurance that covers sterilization and abortion induing drugs to their members.
Today, Geneva College, a private institution in Pennsylvania associated with the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America, held a press conference announcing it has filed a lawsuit against the Obama Administration over the mandate's infringement on religious liberty.
[This was in the HObby Decision.][/I]
The college takes issue with the mandate's requirement to provide health insurance coverage of drugs like Plan B and ella, which can sometimes cause abortions in early pregnancy, at no cost to the insured. To effectively subsidize chemical abortions violates the college's deeply held moral and religious beliefs and runs roughshod over the institution's religious liberty and conscience rights.
"The government shouldn't be able to force anyone to buy or sell insurance that subsidizes morally objectionable treatments," said Geneva College President Ken Smith.
While the lawsuits filed this week focus on the mandate's threat to religious freedom, the violations of liberty enabled by Obamacare's unprecedented federal overreach could extend far beyond religious institutions.
"People of faith shouldn't be punished by the state for following that faith in making decisions for themselves or their organizations," said Greg Baylor, senior counsel at ADF. "Every American should know that a government with the power to do this to anyone can do this—and worse—to everyone."
The Alliance Defense Fund also filed suit against the Obama Administration over the weekend on behalf of Louisiana College, a small Southern Baptist school located in the middle of the state. Like Geneva College and many others, Louisiana College holds deep moral objections to abortion and cannot in good conscience subsidize health insurance coverage of drugs that can end a pregnancy.
Read the rest over at Heritage.
Louisiana College press release below:
ADF, Louisiana College challenge Obama mandate
February 20th, 2012
Federal lawsuit challenges Obama administration's latest attack on religious freedom
ALEXANDRIA, La. — Alliance Defense Fund attorneys filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Louisiana College Saturday against the Obama administration. The lawsuit challenges the administration's unconstitutional mandate that religious employers provide abortifacients, sterilization, and contraception at no cost to employees regardless of religious or moral objections.
"People of faith shouldn't be punished by the government for following their beliefs when making decisions for themselves or their organizations," said ADF Senior Counsel Kevin Theriot. "The Obama administration invented a fake 'right' to get 'free' abortion pills and sterilization and elevated it above real freedoms protected by the First Amendment. This calculated and intentional attempt to eradicate constitutional protections should terrify every freedom-loving American."
"The Obama administration has purposely transformed a non-existent problem–access to contraception–into a constitutional crisis," said ADF-allied attorney and co-counsel Mike Johnson, dean of Louisiana College's Pressler School of Law. "This mandate offers no choice; Americans either comply and abandon their convictions or resist and be punished."
President Obama held a press conference on Feb. 10 to offer a "compromise" under which some religious non-profit organizations would not have to comply with the mandate. Instead, the employer's insurer would be required to offer the employer's employees the same coverage at no charge. The "compromise"; however, does not exist in the rules or guidance Obama issued on Feb. 10, and the administration is not required to formally propose it.
Theriot explained that even if the proposed change did exist and had coherent boundaries, it would still require the employer to facilitate coverage by providing and paying for an objectionable plan, the costs of which would be passed on to the employers and/or employees via premiums.
"The time for silence is over," said Louisiana College President Dr. Joe W. Aguillard. "Louisiana College will not sit by and allow this or any government to usurp our God-given religious freedoms and our time-honored Baptist heritage."
The new lawsuit filed with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Louisiana College v. Sebelius, argues that the mandate violates the Religious Freedom Restoration Act as well as the First and Fifth amendments to the U.S. Constitution.

Rossville (Ga.) Lakeview-Ft. Oglethorp vs Cartersville (Ga.) Cartersville
Both schools have good football teams, but Cartersville is the one with major football prospects. Leading the way for the Hurricanes is 2014 quarterback Brooks Barden, the son of head coach Frank Barden. The left-handed signal caller accounted for three touchdowns through the air and on the ground in this contest. He has a very smooth delivery, he spins the ball well, and he is very headsy when making decisions. Look for Barden to pick up offers in the coming months.
Barden has some talented athletes to work with over the next season and a half too. 2015 running back Kalin Heath is one to watch. He is around 6-feet tall, 180 pounds, and he is fluid. He could be recruited to play running back or other positions.
John Garcia Jr., Southeast Recruiting Analyst
(Ga.) Walton vs Marietta (Ga.) Lassiter
Despite a whirlwind recruitment that remains unsettled after UCLA withdrew its scholarship offer, former Bruin commit Eddie Printz was as poised as ever for Lassiter. The 6-foot-3, 210-pound quarterback didn't light up the scoreboard with deep passes, but he was patient and efficient throughout the night. He was accurate on his intermediate throws, especially when he needed to show some touch in order to allow one of his receivers to track the ball. Printz also showed off his mobility on the night, making the right read more times than not within the Trojans' zone-read scheme. He powered through the goal line on the game-sealing score after leading the team on a long drive to put Walton away.
Alabama commit Tyren Jones did all he could to keep Walton in the game with his ground work. With fellow Tide pledge and starting quarterback Parker McLeod out with a foot injury all eyes were on him before every snap. Still, the shifty running back managed 180 hard-fought yards. Jones showed power, grit, speed and an excellent burst in the hole with the occasional bounce outside. The four-star also showed some resiliency in the loss. After squandering a scoring chance by fumbling just short of the goal line, Jones continued to carry the load and lead his team both by example as well as vocally.
Steve Robertson, Mississippi Recruiting Analyst
Jackson Prep vs. Jackson Academy
FoxSportNext 300 member and Ole Miss commitment Ryan Buchanan led Jackson Prep to an overtime win over rival Jackson Academy and Mississippi State commitment Jamaal Clayborn.
Buchnanan had some issues with accuracy, but made just enough plays to win including a pair of touchdown passes. Buchanan stands tall in the pocket and he does a nice job of carrying at his fakes. Some nice ball handling by Buchanan on a pair of backside screens forced the defense to roll with him and away from the intended receiver leading to big gains.
Jamaal Clayborn will play guard on the college level, but he spent most of this on Friday night at left tackle. The Raiders found most of their success on the ground running behind the talented Clayborn. On short yardage situations, JA inserted Clayborn into the defensive line up where he forced the action outside more times than not.
Tallahassee (Fla.) Godby vs Live Oak (Fla.) Suwanee
Kristen Ledlow, Southeast Field Reporter
Godby rolled on Friday night with senior running back Khalid Thomas leading the way. The Kentucky commit notched seven carries for 73 yards and two touchdowns in the 54-0 district win, and says his commitment to the Wildcats is solid. Thomas is surrounding by a young but strong core, including juniors on the defense in safety Deion Singleton, Kris Harris and defensive end Jacob Pugh. Pugh completed a fumble recovery for a touchdown in the win. Most impressively, sophomore receiver/cornerback Jaylin Hayward recorded four carries for 46 rushing yards and a reception for another 32 yards and a touchdown. Heyward is seeing major collegiate interest in the southeast, especially from his hometown Florida State after a stellar camp performance this summer.
Amy Campbell, Florida Field Reporter
Jacksonville (Fla.) Mandarin vs Jacksonville (Fla.) Sandalwood
Sandalwood struck quickly in the first quarter and while Mandarin put up a fight, the Mustangs just didn't couldn't overpower the Sandalwood defense. The Saints took the 28-14 victory on Friday night. Leading the Sandalwood defense was Alabama defensive end commit Demarcus Walker, who started slow but came alive in the second half with two sacks. Junior linebacker Kain Daub played with a constant motor and proved to be a play-maker on defense. Daub is committed to LSU, but says Walker May have him thinking about the Tide. Junior linebacker Blake McClain was yet another big play-maker for the Sandalwood defense. McClain doesn't have much recruiting interest yet, but that should change drastically over the coming months. Saints quarterback Parker Boehme proved to be a threat with his arm and with his feet. The Duke commitment was 100-yards passing and 100-yards rushing on the night and showed good poise and seemed pretty comfortable in the pocket. Boehme remains solid to the Blue Devils.
Brandon Huffman, National Recruiting Analyst
Concord (Calif.) De La Salle vs. Pleasanton (Calif.) Foothill
Michael Hutchings (Concord, Calif./De La Salle), was steady throughout the evening, scoring a touchdown on a 10-yard run playing running back, though he did drop another potential scoring threat. Defensively, the four-star linebacker who's headed to USC, was solid all game, nothing spectacular, but still had near double-digit tackles, and forced a fumble on a big hit. Hutchings looks like he's lost some weight since the spring, and looked skinnier than before. He's talked about potentially playing safety at USC, so that could be why some weight is down. He looked more agile than we saw during the spring and summer too.
Kevin Carden, West Recruiting Analyst
Sherman Oaks (Calif.) Notre Dame vs Mission Hills (Calif.) Alemany
All of the big-time prospects showed up in Alemany's 49-42 win over Notre Dame. The most impressive performance of the night came from Notre Dame tailback Khalfani Muhammad, who scored four touchdowns in the loss. Muhammad is known as one of the fastest players in the nation and displayed on Friday night that he also has the ability to run tough inside and pick up tough yards when needed. Muhammad finished the night with 212 yards and four touchdowns on 21 carries in his most impressive game of the season.
The Knights also got solid performances from quarterback Kelly Hilinski and 2014 DB Koa Farmer. Hilinski, a 6-6 signal-caller, threw the ball well and also added a pair of running touchdowns.
Alemany got big contributions from several players including USC commit Steven Mitchell, Colorado commit Devin Ross, quarterback Devon Dunn and tailback Deshone Randall. Mitchell ended the night with seven receptions for 78 yards and added a touchdown run. Dunn, Alemany's senior quarterback had a huge night through the air and on ground, while tailback Deshone Randall did his part with 128 yards rushing on 13 carries.
Peoria (Ariz.) Centennial v. Glendale (Ariz.) Deer Valley
Two talented backs run behind this massive offensive line and it is paying dividends as both are averaging neary 10 yards per carry. UCLA commit Jalen Ortiz looked great on Thursday night. The first two times he touched the ball, he scored, although one was called bac for a holding. rtiz also showed why he could end up playing in the slot, making a great catch in stride along the sideline for a score. Keep an eye out for sophomore back Dedrick Young. He has the makings of a FoxSportsNext Top 300 player in the 2015 class.
Jason Jewell, Arizona Recruiting Analyst
Mesa (Ariz.) Desert Ridge vs Chandler (Ariz.) Basha
Basha wide receiver Nate Phillips, a commit to the University of Arizona, came into the game as one of the state's leading receivers. He was held relatively in check on the night, catching one late touchdown pass, but you can see the ability is there. Phillips stands just 5-foot-9 but he is extremely quick. He gets in and out of his routes and has nice hands. He likely will play slot in Tucson.
Jake Worthen, Northwest Recruiting Analyst
Snohomish (Wash.) Glacier Peak vs. Bothell (Wash.)
Bothell (Wash.) 2015 quarterback Ross Bowers is going to be big time. Every time I see Bowers, I leave impressed and he shows improvement. Bowers has the arm to make any throw on the field, I was especially impressed with his touch and accuracy throwing the deep ball. The 6-foot-2, 175-pound quarterback finished 12 for 15 for 206-yards and three touchdowns. Bowers will be a Pac-12 level quarterback and I would not be shocked to see offers start trickling in as soon as this season.
Annabel Stephan, West Field Reporter
San Clemente (Calif.) vs. Lake Forest (Calif.) El Toro
This match-up came down to the last quarter, but Lake Forest (Calif.) El Toro quarterback Conner Manning (6-2/195) was able to bring back from behind to best San Clemente (Calif.) 49-37. Manning, a Utah commit, showed off his big arm, but impressed even more with his poise on the field, taking his time to read the defense and make the appropriate calls to get the ball into the end zone. He finished the game with 349 yards and three touchdowns. Manning said after the game that though he wouldn't be taking his official visit to Salt Lake City until after the season, but that his commitment to the Utes was solid. El Toro is now 7-0.
Ahmard Vital, Midlands Recruiting Analyst
College Station (Texas) A&M Consolidated vs Conroe (Texas) The Woodlands
It was all about defense in this one and A&M Consolidated came out on top with a 21-14 win over The Woodlands. It was a great showing on the night from A&M Consolidated, three-star defensive end/outside linebacker Jimmie Gilbert, who is coming off a great night and was followed up by an official visit to Purdue this past weekend. Playing in more of a hybrid linebacker role, Gilbert played well coming off the edge or playing in space. On occasion he would drop back into coverage and was able to hold his own. He ended his night with seven tackles, two quarterback hurries and three sacks. Colorado and Iowa State is a couple of the other major players in his recruitment.
Katy (Texas) Cinco Ranch vs Katy (Texas) Morton Ranch
It was an emotional game here that went into overtime. And, it marked history as Morton Ranch won its first contest over Cinco Ranch in school history 38-35. Early on, it was Morton Ranch running back E.J. Achelus who set the tone for the game. He's a patient, shifty runner who can get north and south in a hurry. Achelus is a 2014 back who ended the night with 171 yards and a score. He is already been contacted by SEC powers LSU and Alabama.
On the other side, Notre Dame commit from Cinco Ranch Jamel James, was not as productive. He did find the end zone a couple of times, but ended the night with only 54 yards. He never seemed to get into a rhythm at any time throughout the night and was hit in the backfield often.
Allen Trieu, National Recruiting Analyst
Waukesha West (Wisc.) vs Hartland Arrowhead (Wisc.)
Arrowhead junior offensive lineman George Panos, a Wisconsin commitment, was very impressive. He's a big kid at 6'5, 280-lbs, but has good footwork, is nimble, and able to get into the second level. He is a good drive blocker, shows good strength, and does a nice job of finishing his blocks. His pass set looked good, and he has a good punch. Overall, he is ahead of where most junior linemen are and validated his early NEXT 300 status. West senior tight end Dylan Chmura, a Michigan State commit, caught one pass and was injured on the tackle. He's a nice sized kid who was split out a lot, so we didn't get to see much of him as a blocker. Couple in the injury and he gets an incomplete grade for the day. Arrowhead junior Billy Hirschfeld had a really nice showing. He's tall at 6'6, but showed he could play inside and knifed into the backfield for a couple of big stops. He's a solid athlete who has the frame to fill out.
Bill Greene, Ohio Recruiting Analyst
Canton (Ohio) McKinley vs Canton (Ohio) Glen Oak
Glen Oak won a thrilling 24-21 game, led by their two seniors, quarterback Reid Worstell and offensive tackle Steve Mathie. For Worstell, who holds an offer from Akron, it is a continuation of the success he had had this season. He was effective both throwing and running the football, and was especially productive moving the chains on third down. For Canton McKinley, senior defensive end Antoine Miles played his best game this season, and was dominant on his side of the line. Miles is down to Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and West Virginia, and a decision could be coming soon.
Dave Berk, Ohio Recruiting Analyst
Fort Wayne (IN) Bishop Luers vs Columbus (Ohio) Bishop Hartley
The focus of this game brought Jaylon Smith (Bishop Luers) and Jacob Matuska (Bishop Hartley) to the same field to battle each other. Both players are members of the FOXSportsNEXT.com Top 300 and future Notre Dame teammates and both impressed those in attendance. Matuska, who stands 6-foot-5, 265-pounds played both ways as a tight end and outside linebacker. He showed the ability to play in space going out and covering slot receivers while also being able to come to the line and crash against linemen. His future at Notre Dame looks to be on the defensive line and he could play inside or outside in the Irish 3-4 defensive scheme.
Beth Long, Midwest Field Reporter
Glenbard North (Ill.) High vs Wheaton Warrenville South (Ill.)
In a matchup that Wheaton Warrenville South has dominated for the past decade, Glenbard North made their presence known Friday. North defeated Wheaton Warrenville South 27-21 in overtime. Glenbard North established the run game with talented 2014 running back Justin Jackson, who scored the go ahead touchdown in overtime. Jackson boasts offers from Boston College, Illinois, Northwestern, and Purdue -- and it was clear why Friday. He did a great job of finding the holes, and leading his team to victory.
Simone Scott, Midwest Recruiting Reporter
Hilliard Davidson (Ohio) vs Upper Arlington (Ohio)
Hilliard Davidson dominated this game from the beginning with senior E.J. Jennings leading the way. The running back ran for five touchdowns and proved to be an unstoppable force. Last season he broke his fibula and tore a ligament in his ankle, but after Friday's performance there is no doubt he is healed up.
If there was a bright spot in Upper Arlington's 14-42 loss to Hilliard Davidson, it was junior Chris Frey. The athlete played on both sides of the ball and was responsible for all of his team's points after 47 and 62 yard touchdown runs.
Brian Dohn, East Recruiting Analyst
Monmouth Junction (N.J.) South Brunswick vs Piscataway (N.J.)
The game featured a pair of marquee Rutgers commits, and the higher profile Nadir Barnwell, a four-star cornerback, and Piscataway came away with a 47-14 win. Barnwell was playing in his second game of the season after missing the first two with a shoulder injury. He plays quarterback and safety for the Chiefs, but it is easy to see why schools liked him at cornerback. He is quick and accelerates well, and on several scrambles at quarterback he showed fast feet, an ability to stop and change direction and very good body control.
At safety, he made a few tackles but didn't stick his nose in for a big hit (remember, he is coming off a shoulder injury). However, he has a very good feel for the game.
Michael Clark, East Recruiting Analyst
Wake Forest (N.C.) Wake Forest-Rolesville vs. Raleigh (N.C.) Wakefield
Wakefield moved to 7-1 with a 33-19 win in Friday's Cap 8 showdown against Wake Forest-Rolesville. Senior quarterback Connor Mitch led the charge for the Wolverines throwing for 320 yards and three touchdowns. The 6-foot-3, 215-pound South Carolina was razor sharp all night long. Mitch showed great poise and did a nice job taking what the defense gave him. He showed the ability to make all the throws and seemed to be a step ahead of the defense all night long. Mitch is a gamer and South Carolina fans should feel very good about their future signal-caller.
Wakefield's Jordan Fielleteau had a huge game. The North Carolina commit finished the evening with 195 yards receiving and a touchdown. Every time I watch him play, I am more impressed with him. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver is not flashy, but he just makes play after play. He does a nice job getting open and has soft hands. While he is not the fastest receiver, he runs good routes and is extremely physical. The three-star prospect wasn't as heavily recruited as some of the other receivers in the Tar Heel state, but has the potential to be a very good possession receiver for North Carolina.

Olney (Md.) vs Good Counsel vs Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha
Good Counsel's stingy defense, led by a handful of D1 prospects, held on to a 13-10 win over rival DeMatha. In the final minutes of the Friday night showdown, cornerback Kirk Garner made a game-changing tackle, forcing a turnover that helped seal a Falcon's victory. Infact, DeMatha entered the red-zone three times that night and left with just one field goal. That speaks to the stinginess of the Good Counsel defense. Not to mention the Falcons were without the services of star linebacker Dorian O'Daniel (Clemson) and Darien Carr. Both suffered minor injuries in the first half, turning the duties over to linebacker Reggie McGee (Houston), safety C.J. Jones (UVA lean) and Marcel Ngachie. Jones recorded several interceptions, while Good Counsel's elite cornerback Kendall Fuller (Virginia Tech) showed up big, returning a punt 72-yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.

At RK Motors, we've sold every single Shelby we've gotten our hands on this year, setting two price guide records in the process. Check out our top 20 sales of the year for the evidence. Anyone who tells you that the classic car market is down is stuck in 2008. Bottom line, as Carroll Shelby's star has risen, so have the values on the hardware bearing his name. And at the very top of the list has to be the King of the Road GT500KR like this 1968 Fastback.
By 1968, the pony car wars were in top gear, with GM and Ford working overtime stuffing big block V8s into their popular muscle cars. In 1967, Ford finally managed to stuff a 390 into the Mustang, paving the way for Shelby's GT500, which took it one step further and added a 428 to the menu. In 1968, with the hard engineering work already done, it was time to up the horsepower ante. Enter the 428 Cobra Jet, with a grossly underrated 335 horsepower number attached to it, ostensibly to fool the insurance companies. Shelby stuffed the Cobra Jet into the GT500, stole the Chevy Camaro SS396s thunder by calling it the King of the Road (or GT500KR), and drove himself even further into the history books.
This 1968 Shelby GT500KR enjoyed a high-quality restoration in 2008 and looks spectacular today in its original Acapulco Blue finish. Driven less than 100 miles since it was completed, this car was restored to compete at the very highest levels, and the original mileage of 20,912 is correct and authentic, with a complete owner and title history to back it up. The paint is 2-stage urethane that glitters in the sunlight, and the white stripes and GT500KR callouts on the rocker panels stand out in bright, clean contrast. The fiberglass pieces are in excellent condition, in part thanks to the improvements made to build quality when A.O. Smith and Ford took Shelby production back to Michigan. It has been a long time since I've seen a Shelby with a trunk lid that fits as well as this one does. Panel gaps are very good, certainly much better than new, and the doors on this car close like it has never seen a rough road or more than part throttle acceleration. Solid.
Trim and bright-work was thoroughly restored, including the bumpers and all the stainless around the windshield. Ford was intent on advertising the new Cobra Jet motor everywhere they could, so there are bright red emblems on both front fenders advertising the car's 428 cubic inch power plant. The fog lamps in the grille opening are functional, and the glass is very good all around. Those cool Shelby sequential taillights pilfered from the Thunderbird look great and work properly always good for some extra attention when you're sitting in traffic.
The original 428 Cobra Jet engine lives in a fully detailed and beautifully restored engine bay that is befitting a car of this caliber. Yes, it is the original engine, fully rebuilt to Cobra Jet specs. There's a lot of speculation about the actual horsepower of this engine, and performance tests of the day suggest that the number was really somewhere north of 400, and that's not hard to believe. With all the heavy duty upgrades that came with the Cobra Jet, it was clearly a piece built for performance and could easily handle the rigors of racing, which is exactly the image Ford wanted for their biggest hitter. Bathed in a bright coat of Ford blue paint, the block, heads, and many ancillary parts look better than they day they were new. As the KR featured functional ram air, the traditional oval Shelby air cleaner is gone, replaced by a more utilitarian (but vastly more functional) steel filter housing that seals to the hood and feeds the Holley carburetor underneath through an open-element filter. Cast aluminum Cobra valve covers look gorgeous with their black wrinkle finish. And sharp-eyed viewers will note that the factory air injection system is intact and functional on this KR, which is incredibly rare, most enthusiasts removed all these components the instant they got their new Shelbys off the dealer's lot. With Shelbys, there's really no excuse to get all the details correct, since there are about a zillion books on authenticity and original specifications, and it looks like the restorer read every single one of them. Note the orange shocks as original, the correct hoses and clamps, and the Autolite battery. Heck, the windshield washer bottle on the driver's side fender has never had a drop of fluid in it!
The chassis is also show quality throughout, from the red oxide floors with some Acapulco Blue overspray, to the detailing on the suspension components. The engine is backed by a C6 3-speed automatic that is original to the car, feeding a 9-inch Ford rear with 3.50 gears and Traction-Lok limited slip. As I said, this car was restored several years ago, and shows some slight signs of usage, but could be prepped for competition without a lot of time and effort. The basics are correct, with the proper stripes, markings, and decals applied as needed. The wheels are 10-spoke Shelby alloys (don't try to put your 1968 alloys on a '67, they won't fit!), and I'm guessing that they're in original condition too nice to restore, but not quite up to the standards of the rest of the car, but I certainly respect the restorer's decision to keep them as-is. They currently wear a set of 215/70/15 BFGoodrich T/A radials.
The black comfort weave bucket seat interior is almost 100% Ford Mustang, with the notable exceptions of Shelby-exclusive items like a center armrest with a Cobra logo embossed into its surface, a roll bar with integrated seat belts, and a pair of auxiliary gauges in the center stack. Ford was moving the GT500 into a grand touring role in the lineup, combining the potent hardware underneath with a near-luxury blend of interior features to create the ultimate gentleman's express. The interior in this car is an astounding mixture of original and new pieces. The steering wheel is fully restored, with clean wood-graining and a rim-blow horn. The seats are ORIGINAL and look amazing. Overhead, the headliner is taut, the gauges have been rebuilt, and the carpets are the correct weave. The seatbelts even feature the Shelby Cobra logo on the buttons. As I said, there aren't many excuses for not getting a Shelby correct in every detail, and the restorer on this one nailed it.
Documentation includes a copy of the original build sheet, the original title, and a Marti report that details the features on this car. As one of only 933 GT500KR fastbacks built, it is a very rare piece that has been returned to better-than-new condition, and the documentation is icing on that cake.
We've had a lot of incredible Shelby Mustangs roll through here in the past 12 months, and they've all sold for strong money. I predict that this one will continue the trend, and thanks to its great color combination and rarity, it probably won't last long. With a top-notch restoration and a no-stories background that includes all the original hardware, they just don't get much more blue-chip than this. This one won't be here long, so call now!

Seahawks DE Suspended
Seattle Seahawks defensive end Bruce Irvin was suspended for the first four games of the 2013 season on Friday after the league announced he violated the NFL policy on performance-enhancing substances.
Irvin will be eligible to participate in all offseason activities and preseason practices and games, but will be suspended without pay for the opening four games at Carolina, home for San Francisco and Jacksonville and at Houston. Irvin will be eligible to return to Seattle's active roster on Sept. 30 following the Seahawks' Week 4 game against the Texans.
''I want to apologize to my teammates, coaches and Seahawks fans for making a mistake when I took a substance that is prohibited in the NFL without a medical exemption,'' Irvin said in a statement released by the team. ''I am extremely disappointed in the poor judgment I showed and take full responsibility for my actions. I will not appeal the discipline and instead will focus my energy on preparing for the season so I can begin earning your trust and respect again. I look forward to contributing to the team the moment I return.''

RIALTO -- An exotic dancer shot in the neck by a customer who then turned the gun on himself at a strip club is expected to survive, police said Friday.
Jacqueline Marquez-Figueroa, 23, of Moreno Valley, whose stage name is "Egypt," remained hospitalized at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton.
"She's going to survive," said Rialto police Capt. Randy DeAnda.
Police say Gerald Paxton Davis, 47, of San Bernardino shot Marquez-Figueroa on Wednesday at the club at 312 S. Riverside Ave. when she didn't respond to his advances and then fatally shot himself.
Davis had been interacting with Marquez-Figueroa at the club since January.
Officers found the wounded dancer outside a private room and Davis inside. Davis died at the scene.
DeAnda said the round fired at Marquez-Figueroa entered the back of her neck and lodged in her jaw. She underwent surgery and was listed in stable condition.
Police said a similar incident occurred at the club within the last two weeks.
A state correctional officer went to the Spearmint Rhino and brought a knife with him.
"He got a lap dance and attempted suicide by slicing his wrist," DeAnda said.
The officer survived.
The incidents bring the club's security policies into question.
A woman who answered the phone at Spearmint Rhino's headquarters in Norco declined to talk about the incidents.
"We have no comment," she said.

NY Post falsely suggests state aid bill increases deficits
A New York Post editorial misleadingly claimed that the Congressional Budget Office said the recently passed state aid bill "will bloat the deficit another $13 billion over 10 years, using 'pay as you go' accounting." However, that figure excludes much of the savings used to pay for the bill, and CBO said that when accounting for these savings, the measure reduces deficits by around $1.4 billion over ten years.
NY Post: State aid bill "will bloat the deficit another $13 billion" using "pay as you go" accounting
From an August 12 New York Post editorial [1] (emphasis added):
Voters' focus on spending forced Democrats to make a telling choice this week -- between public unions and folks on food stamps.
Guess who they picked? Yup: To fund another bailout -- $26 billion to save teaching and other government jobs -- Dems cutmoney meant to feed the poor.
President Obama inked the bill Tuesday -- to great cheers (natch) from teachers.
True, food-stamp spending will still go up, but not by as much. Dems also hiked taxes again, by $10 billion. Yet the Congressional Budget Office says even that isn't enough: The measure will bloat the deficit another $13 billion over 10 years, using "pay as you go" accounting.
But that figure excludes savings used to pay for the bill
Bill partly paid for with Recovery Act funds. As the New York Post noted, the state aid bill was paid for in part by cuts in food stamp spending. However, the Post did not note that these cuts come from the Recovery Act funds that increased food stamp benefits. As the Washington Post reported [2], the bill "rescinds after 2014 an increase in food stamp payments enacted in last year's $862 billion stimulus package." The bill also includes [3] rescissions of budget authority from some Recovery Act programs.
CBO estimated that the bill would reduce deficits by $1.37 billion over 10 years. The Congressional Budget Office estimate [4] of the bill states that the "Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Effects" of the bill are an increase in deficits by $12.6 billion over 10 years. However, CBO noted that this figure:
Excludes savings in Titles II and III that would result from changes to programs and rescissions of funds previously designated as emergency, which total about $14 billion over the 2010-2020 period.
The Post editorial falsely suggested that the savings from the food stamp cuts were included in this "pay as you go" estimate. CBO stated that when accounting for these savings -- which "are not counted in the calculation of the effect on the deficit under the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010" because they were emergency funds - the bill reduces deficits by $1.37 billion over ten years.

Recovery Milestone Reached with Restoration of North Jersey Coast Line Service Main, Bergen County, Pascack Valley and Port Jervis Line Trains to Resume Secaucus Junction Service Customers Encouraged to Visit NJtransit.com For Latest, Line-By-Line Scheduling Information
Trenton, NJ –The Christie Administration announced today that all but one NJ TRANSIT rail lines will be running full or modified service effective Monday, November 19. This includes the restoration of service along the North Jersey Coast Line, which suffered the brunt of the damage wrought by Hurricane Sandy.
Additionally, with the completion of repairs to a key Amtrak-owned electrical substation in Kearny that will generate additional power to the Northeast Corridor, NJ TRANSIT will be operating approximately 90 percent of its normal peak period service into New York Penn Station starting Monday morning. Main, Bergen County, Pascack Valley and Port Jervis Line trains will resume stopping at Secaucus Junction as a result of the additional rail capacity opened along the Northeast Corridor.
Updated schedules will be posted on njtransit.com after 6 p.m. this evening.
"This is a major milestone in our continuing, post-Sandy recovery. The devastation wrought on the North Jersey Coast Line was the worst sustained throughout our system," said Transportation Commissioner and NJ TRANSIT Board Chairman James Simpson. "While we are not out of the woods and the recovery process continues, the restoration of this critical rail service is a major step forward for the Garden State."
The restoration of service on the North Jersey Coast Line completes the full or partial restoration of all NJ TRANSIT rail lines. More than 30 miles of North Jersey Coast Line track sustained severe damage during the storm, including extensive rail washouts (no ballast under the tracks) between South Amboy and Bay Head. The River Drawbridge over Raritan Bay was severely damaged following a collision between two tugboats in addition to a record storm surge. The Morgan Drawbridge in South Amboy also sustained severe damage following a record storm surge and the impact from recreational boats and a cargo container.
"The restoration of NJ TRANSIT's rail lines within 18 days of Sandy is a tremendous credit to the commitment, professionalism and the dedication of our employees," said NJ TRANSIT Executive Director James Weinstein. "In this time of Thanksgiving, I would like to specifically offer our thanks to our employees for their service, as well as to customers for their patience and understanding during this difficult time."
Effective Monday, November 19, NJ TRANSIT rail service will operate as follows:
Restored Service
Also effective Monday, November 19, NJ TRANSIT will adjust and refine its emergency trans-Hudson transportation plan to most efficiently match the available bus, rail and ferry resources with the needs of state citizens.

The Blaze Uncovers Rampant Learning In Texas High School
Blog ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
"EXCLUSIVE," blares Glenn Beck's news website, The Blaze, this morning as they blow the lid off a shocking story out of Texas:
The lede is no less gripping:
Students in a Texas public high school were made to stand up and recite the Mexican national anthem and Mexican pledge of allegiance as part of a Spanish class assignment, but the school district maintains there was nothing wrong with the lesson.
The story centers around a sophomore in said Spanish class who objected to the lesson and complained to the principal. This same student videotaped the students reciting the pledge and the anthem en español, thus providing the critical evidence that high school students in Texas are actually being taught things.
It's a huge story -- most of the country has been laboring under the false impression that Texas public schools are mere fronts for the dissemination of anti-knowledge, in which students are fed garbage like "intelligent design" and right-wing revisionist history in the name of learning. The Blaze has helped tear away this veil of misinformation by conclusively demonstrating that students in Texas schools are actually learning things of value, like second languages and the cultural heritage of their southern neighbor.
Equally shocking was The Blaze's revelation that the teacher is not only of Mexican descent, but is actually proud of her heritage and uses that pride to inform her teaching of Mexican culture:
When Brenda made clear she would not stand up and recite the pledge, she was given an alternative assignment: an essay on the history of the Mexican revolution.
Meanwhile, other students continued with their presentations, which took place over the course of several days.
When Brinsdon talked to Santos -- a first-year teacher at Achieve -- about her new assignment, the teacher told her she grew up in Mexico.
"She told me that she loved Mexico," Brinsdon said.
Let's all take a moment to thank Glenn Beck and The Blaze for not falling victim to conventional wisdom and actually reporting on the successes of the Texas education system and the pride and dedication of public school teachers working to improve young Americans' understanding of one of our most important allies.
Or, better yet: díganles "gracias."
