A second man has been charged in the shooting death of a woman whose body was found Labor Day under the Bay Bridge in Newport Beach, according to court records obtained Friday.
Irvin Tellez, 25, was charged with the murder of 28-year-old Nancy Hammour of Santa Ana, and the attempted murder of a 31-year-old woman in Santa Ana on the same day Hammour's body was found.
"Our detectives believe that the shooting of our victim as well as the shooting of Hammour are related in some way," Santa Ana police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna said.
Jaime Prieto Rocha, 40, of Santa Ana, was earlier charged in Hammour's killing, but has so far not been charged in the shooting of the 31-year-old woman Sept. 2.
It's unclear what motivated the shooting of the 31-year-old woman, whose name was not released, Bertagna said.
The victim received a phone call just before 5:30 a.m., Sept. 2, that led her out to the front of her apartment complex on the 2100 block of South Cedar Street, Bertagna said.
The victim's family told police she was going to meet someone out in front of her home, where she was shot in the face and taken to Western Medical Center in Santa Ana, Bertagna said.
Investigators did not expect her to survive, but she has been recovering, Bertagna said.
The motive for Hammour's killing has not been officially released, but it was revealed this week that the victim was a drug dealer who was indicted by a federal grand jury in a massive local, state and federal crackdown on Mexican Mafia gangs in Orange County dubbed "Operation Smokin' Aces."
The crackdown focused on the Evergreen-Cedar neighborhood, a particular hot spot for crime in Santa Ana, according to authorities. It's the same neighborhood where the 31-year-old woman was shot.
In the federal indictments unsealed this week, it is alleged that Hammour was caught in a wiretap ordering narcotics on Feb. 19, 2012, and on March 16, 2012. Hammour and another defendant also allegedly sold 13.73 grams of methamphetamine to a confidential informant on Feb. 17, 2012.
Rocha was being held without bail and Tellez was being held on $1 million bail, according to jail records. Both are scheduled to be arraigned Oct. 11.
Hammour had two children. Her 4-month-old son is in the custody of Orange County child protective services personnel, and a 12-year-old son is being raised by his grandmother, according to her sister.
Yara Hayak told ABC7 her sister "was going down the wrong road and she had lost her baby and she was trying to do all the classes and courses that was asked by the courts so she can get her baby back, and one of them was to have a stable place."
Hayak told the Orange County Register that her younger sister had struggled with drug problems since her father died six years ago.
According to Orange County court records, Hammour had two convictions for driving under the influence and a misdemeanor conviction for prostitution in 2008. She also pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance in January, and her probation was revoked July 19, according to court records.

A Northern Idaho man accused of killing his wife and unborn daughter last December has pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree murder.
The Bonner County Daily Bee reports (http://bit.ly/12i4Vgl) 27-year-old Jeremy Keith Swanson entered his pleas Tuesday as part of a plea agreement. Prosecutors allege Swanson stabbed his wife Jennifer Marie Bosch-Swanson repeatedly in the head and torso with an ice pick and a knife on Dec. 18.
In exchange for his pleas, Bonner County Prosecutor Louis Marshall said he will not seek the death penalty for Swanson, who will be sentenced in June.
Marshall said he will instead recommend life in prison without parole because Swanson had no prior criminal history, has potential mental health issues and the victim's family did not want to see him executed.

Declan's Moon Tightens Up for Santa Catalina
The gelded son of Malibu Moon , who went a half-mile in :49 3/5 and the last three-eighths in :36, was caught galloping out the extra furlong in 1:38 3/5.
"He got a great workout," trainer Ron Ellis said. "Victor was just standing straight up on him. The best part was that he galloped out four lengths in front of Power Boy. The track was pretty deep today and if anything, it was a touch slow."
Owned by Jay Em Ess Stable, the Maryland-bred Declan's Moon was crowned last year's outstanding 2-year-old colt or gelding after an undefeated season that included the Del Mar Futurity (gr. II), Hollywood Prevue Stakes (gr. III) and Hollywood Futurity (gr. I). The Santa Catalina will be the colt's first start since winning his Eclipse Award. He's earned $507,300.
Ellis also sent out San Vicente Stakes (gr. II) runner-up Don't Get Mad for a half-mile breeze in :49 at Hollywood in preparation for the March 19 San Felipe Stakes (gr. II). The son of Stephen Got Even , owned by B. Wayne Hughes, has won two of his three career starts and has banked $90,290.
Across town at Santa Anita, San Rafael Stakes (gr. II) hero Spanish Chestnut, who will take on Declan's Moon in the Santa Catalina, breezed seven-eighths in 1:26. Stablemate Scipion, who captured the Risen Star Stakes (gr. III) at Fair Grounds in his last start, went six furlongs in 1:14 4/5 in company with Formal Attire, who earned the same time. Scipion is set to return to Louisiana for the March 12 Louisiana Derby (gr. II).
"I am very, very happy with Spanish Chestnut," trainer Patrick Biancone said. "He's a horse who we've put a lot of work into. He needed today's breeze and he did it very well in hand.
"I'm delighted with Scipion's work. We're very lucky with his program as it fits better with the bad weather. If you look at the weather patterns, horses who've raced in the middle of the month are better off than the horses who raced at the beginning of the month."Though Spanish Chestnut missed a work, Biancone isn't too worried about any ill effects on the Florida-bred son of Horse Chestnut for Saturday's 1 1/16-mile race.
"It won't be a problem, but with this weather horses who've just run have an edge. That's why Lukas' horse (Going Wild, who won the Sham Stakes on Feb. 5) is the one to beat."
Spanish Chestnut has won three of five starts with two seconds for earnings of $174,420. Scipion, who has reached the winner's circle twice in five starts with two thirds, has banked $143,240. Hall of Fame jockey Gary Stevens will be aboard both colts for their next starts.

it is not worse, we were losing almost 800,000 jobs per mos. and the entire economy was near collapse. it did not turn into this mess in 3 yrs and if you had more patience than a toddler you would see it could not have been fixed quickly. i can understand wanting a change but not back to neocons and trickle down and this new anti science take no prisoners faith based tea party mob.
Only a toddler is incapable of understanding that Obama is borrowing money to give people jobs. This is insane! He bought and paid for GM's unions. He took your money and gave it to Solyndra which is now bankrupt. He says he saved us from further recession and you drones believe him. He didn't do anything except kick the can down the road. There are not more manufacturing jobs to support this kind of spending. We are so much worse off. Let me ask you this veroman1. Can you go out and borrow money from a bank to pay your mortgage bills? No? But this is exactly what Obama is doing. If you did it, it would be illegal, so why can he? Stop with the blame game. If he had any success without spending us into bankruptcy, I would be the first one to give him a chance. But he is a failure and you know it and yet, you want to give him more time? Really?

Ward's has just released its "10 Best Interiors" list for 2011. Although better known for its "10 Best Engines" list, the trade publication has ranked its favorite automotive interiors since 2005. This list is made up of cars from various manufacturers and classes, and features the 10 cars Ward's believes to have the best interiors of the year. To be considered for the list, cars must either be all-new or significantly altered for 2011. Editors at Ward's drove 51 vehicles in order to come up with this list, narrowing down the list to just 10 over the course of two months.
Luxury brands were well represented on the list, with the 2011 Audi A8 and BMW X3 xDrive35i both making the distinguished top 10. Editors especially liked the wood and suede accents inside the A8, featured heavily in the door panels and seat backs. They also complimented the A8's Multimedia Interface controller for its ease of use. Ward's editors also liked the wood trim present in the BMW X3, calling the color scheme "tastefully executed." Another highlight is the X3's improved iDrive controller, which is reportedly more intuitive to use.
While you'd expect a couple of luxury cars on a list of top-notch interiors, there were a surprising number of economy cars that also made the cut. Among them is the 2011 Chevrolet Cruze 2LT RS, which was praised for its use of soft materials, higher-quality plastics, and with the 2LT's well-bolstered leather seats. The 2012 Ford Focus Titanium also made the list, earning high marks for its neatly laid out center console and attractive interior color schemes. Rounding out the list's economy car contingent is the 2011 Hyundai Elantra Limited. Speaking of the Elantra's interior layout, Ward's says Hyundai is "finding its own unique interior design language," noting the instrument panel itself "displays a curvaceous sensuality."
Also included in the list is the 2011 Dodge Charger Rallye Plus. The publication liked the look of the Charger's interior, taking notice of the red seats, matte-finish metallic trim and sporty gauges. Another Chrysler product — the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Summit — was lauded for extensive use of tan leather trim, which reportedly evoked images of the outdoors. The 2011 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite was also named a favorite, due at least in part to its spacious cargo area and surplus of cupholders (10 in total). Editors also liked the spacious third-row seat, along with the two-tier storage bins located in the front doors.
Finishing up the list are two all-new sedans, the 2011 Volvo S60 and 2011 Kia Optima EX. Ward's calls the S60 "a study in Scandinavian serenity," lauding its angular door panels and floating center stack. The Optima's stylish cabin surprised editors with its features, including heated and cooled leather seating and an expansive panoramic sunroof.

4.5 A+ for the A-wing Pilot. CommanderCody | 26/06/2010 | See all CommanderCody's reviews (30) This 30th Anniversary Collection A-Wing Pilot is a must buy for your Star Wars figures collection, probably the best pilot figure released to the date this figure was released. Unlike the other pilot figure released in the 30th range, that being Biggs Darklighter, the body of which was used on quite a few other pilot figures, this A-wing Pilot is an all new creation. The colouring is excellent, the uniform comes with detailed insignia and chest equipment and leg life support bands. The best thing about theis guy is that he comes with two removable helmets, firstly he has a helmet liner / skull cap that can be worn instead of the helmet, but not inside the helmet as there is not enough room for both. The helmet is wonderfully made, detailed and fits into place really well. A really great figure this is, but it now, you won't be sorry.
4.5 neat little star wars figure winchestergirl | 16/02/2009 | See all winchestergirl's reviews (25) A good gift for any star wars fan.Tad smaller than I imagined but still a good buy for the price.All in all a worthy purchase!
4.5 Best TAC figure of 2007? I think so... LucaNors | 10/12/2007 | See all LucaNors's reviews (7) A literally amazing addition to your Star Wars figure collection. This figure is simply flawless. Amazing articulation, superb detail and decent accessories (flight cap, helmet and collector coin). Sure, he doesn't come with a blaster but it's not really necessary. I simply cannot flaw this figure for anything. A MUST!

Review by:
Christina Daley
on July 25, 2011 :
When I saw the title of this book, without reading a description, I thought that maybe this was a story about an exotic character from an exotic place (i.e. a twist and a fairy tale from India or the Middle East or something). Instead, Rose of Par Kluhnd's influences feel much more familiar, like medieval Europe with some Grecian influences. Ash has a beautiful style of prose that's fitting, maybe not for the first couple chapters, but certainly for the rest of the book (perhaps that was the author's intent). I was glad to see the host of fantastic characters weren't your usual elves, dwarves, werewolves, etc., but some new (or new to me) ones like the selkies, leshies, and so on.
While Ash's flowing language was easy to follow, the plot sagged immensely in the middle with all the details of Rose's travels. I wished that those parts could be tightened up to only highlight the events that drove the plot forward. There are many instances of non-events, in which there is promise of an action sequence, but I was disappointed when I didn't get to see them because they were dealt with off screen and everything worked out fine with no real threat.
And while I liked the mix of characters, it was a bit hard to distinguish some of them (i.e. Scaythach and Sienna) because they spoke exactly the same way and had the same mannerisms. It would've been nice to "see" their personalities come about in the dialogue and action, rather than have to be told about them by either the narrator or another character.
The best parts, in my opinion, came towards the end, when the pace and the action picked up. I would've liked to see a similar treatment more throughout the book. It doesn't have to be more violent (not at all), but it would've been nice to move the plot along quicker. That could've also helped bring down the whopping 111,000+ word count to the more YA-friendly range of 45,000 to 65,000 (give or take about 20,000).
All in all, an enjoyable read.

Linda Ash's children's novel Rose of Par Kluhnd: A Fairy Tale is an innocent but intelligent tale. Written in the classic style of children's writers such as C.S. Lewis the language is evocative of another age. Rose is a young girl who accidentally falls into another world, where her grandmother used to be queen and where she is quickly heralded as the new royalty. The novel span's Rose's three years in this world, while she awaits her grandmother's return and learns to be a leader, as well as a young woman.
The novel covers a large time span, achieved by skipping over periods in order to focus on important events. Through this, Ash has created a story which is quick paced but still clearly illustrates Rose's development from child to young woman. Even in later parts of the novel, when Rose is older, the tone remains suitable for a parent to read to a younger child or for an older child to read by themselves. Ash uses the difficulties Rose must overcome to present many moral messages, which are easily identified but rarely feel forced or didactic.
Ash's characters are appealing and realistic, even the mythological beings which, along with Rose's happily ever after ending, make this story 'a fairy tale'. Even the minor characters and protagonists are well defined and described, having morals of their own to present. The novel's plot, characters and themes make it one which I think most children would enjoy, but even as an adult I found the story of Rose of Par Kluhnd: A Fairy Tale to be exciting and engaging.

This one can be used as a replacement for both telepathy-qt and tapioca-qt (i.e. low *and* high level interfaces - the low-level stuff is auto-generated from telepathy-spec and not very exciting, and all the development effort goes into wrapping that with high-level APIs like in Tapioca). It's from the same team as telepathy-glib, using many of the same design ideas (I'm one of the maintainers of both telepathy-glib and telepathy-qt4; my co-maintainer on telepathy-qt4 previously worked on Tapioca). George Grundleborg has blogged about its use in KDE and its advantages over the combination of telepathy-qt and tapioca-qt: http://grundleborg.wordpress.com/tag/telepathy/ I'd prefer to maintain it in pkg-telepathy rather than as a Qt/KDE package, since I don't actually use KDE myself (don't panic, the other maintainers do!), and the pkg-telepathy team works very closely with Telepathy upstream due to being basically the same people :-) Simon

Death of a '94 Dodge Spirit Bricks on the pedal.
1980 lebaron I have a 1980 Chrysler LeBaron. I am the second owner. I bought it from the original owner which was a lady. I have the original title from her when she bought it in 1980. Also i have a new clear title in my name. The car is in great shape for its age. She had it in the garage and now i have it under a fully covered carport. It runs and drives great. It rides very nice, its extremely comfortable. The car is all original. There is absolutely zero rust on this car. It is a Texas car and its been here all its life. The AC does blow cold. Everything works on the car from the auto locks to the antenna going up and down when you put the radio on. I would love to see a collector get this car because of the originality and the shape its in for its age . You cant find them like this anymore. It does have current registration. It really is a pretty neat looking car.

Removal and Installation of a Coolant Bleeder Valve on a Dodge Stratus PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!!! Here is a quick video on how to remove and install a coolant bleeder valve on a dodge stratus. You first will need to remove the upper radiator hose, heater core hose, and reservoir hose, then remove the intake manifold with 10 mm sockets, finally remove the coolant bleeder valve, install then turn car on and bleed the system by opening the bleeder valve to remove all air from system while car is running, after there is a steady stream of coolant coming from the valve, tighten the bleeder valve, and finally add coolant back to the system until full. Check temperature gauge and you are done. Remember if I can do it, you can do it! Do it yourself and save money.

What's On
Being lazy might not always be a bad thing. At least that's what comedian Irene Pink reckons.
Pink will join fellow comedians Ben Hurley and Chris Brain, along with political commentator Martyn 'Bomber' Bradbury, on the panel for this Thursday's Late at the Museum, where the fifth deadly sin, sloth, will be examined from every angle.
Are Kiwis too laidback? Is being lazy causing us to become unhealthy and unmotivated? Or are our busy lives in desperate need for some time out? Pink says all will be revealed.
Along with the hour-long discussion, the monthly event at Auckland Museum features music and Shakespeare performances.
Pink said, being one of the original seven deadly sins, sloth, once talked about people who were deemed lazy, as being open to evil.
She said today though, it could have a different meaning - with more people becoming "lazy thinkers".
But when it comes down to putting your feet up or doing something "productive", Pink is a staunch supporter of taking a break.
"You're always worried that if you're not always busy, your natural tendency is to be sloth-like.
"But I don't think being slothful physically is necessarily a bad thing. Like when you get asked what your hobbies are, I think everybody lies and says 'I like to garden and read books' when really, don't you just want to lie in front of the telly and read magazines?"
She said she is "hugely suspicious" of people who are constantly busy, whatever their reasons.
"Is it because you don't want to be alone in a room, with yourself?
"I think there is a tendency to pretend to be busy or to make yourself busy, because you don't want to be that person who is not playing touch rugby at 5.30pm because it's daylight savings.
"The thought of that makes me what to throw up, but saying you would like to lie down with a glass of wine makes you sound like a bit of a loser."

Ohio's Oberlin College suspends classes over "hate speech"
- Tweet
- Share this
CLEVELAND (Reuters) - Oberlin College, one of the first schools to integrate black and white students, suspended classes for the day on Monday after a report that a person wearing a hood and robe resembling a Ku Klux Klan costume was seen on campus.
The suspension came as Oberlin was to begin a planned Peace Week in response to homophobic, and racially and religiously insensitive vandalism that has plagued the highly ranked Ohio liberal arts college over the past month.
Classes and non-essential activities were suspended at the school to allow students to gather for discussions about issues faced by the Oberlin community in recent weeks, the school said in a message posted on its website.
"During the last several weeks, incidents of hate speech have appeared on campus including racist, anti-Semitic, and homophobic defacing of posters that were advertising events and programming," Oberlin President Marvin Krislov and Dean of Students Eric Estes said in a letter to parents on Monday.
Oberlin, a private college with about 3,000 students, provided co-education for men and women from its inception in 1833, and was one of the first to integrate black and white students, regularly admitting students of color from 1835.
The school's letter to parents said offensive postings had also appeared via untraceable accounts on popular social media sites.
Oberlin College security and Oberlin, Ohio, police were investigating the report of a person dressed in a KKK costume near its Afrikan Heritage House, a campus residence hall, the college said.
"We don't know what is or what is not connected, but the incidents of hate speech have been going on for a little while now with the defacing of posters and that has brought us to this point," Oberlin spokesman Scott Wargo said.
Wargo said Oberlin officials have no idea who or how many people were behind the hate speech, but he said the school is working with local law enforcement to end it.
"We know this is something that happens in the rest of the world and we are in the world. We are not immune to it. But it is absolutely against Oberlin values," Wargo said.

Retrevo: Retailers Need To Get Their Apps Together
You can try to wish them away and reminisce about the days when people shopped and purchased in physical stores. But shopping apps for mobile devices aren't going away, and retailers have two choices when it comes to savvy shoppers with smartphones in their holsters: use 'em or lose 'em. Use the apps and mobile devices, that is -- or lose the consumers who view them as necessary shopping equipment for getting live reviews, price quotes and competitive deals.
Chains like Best Buy, Walmart and Target are up against it in this regard, according to consumer-electronics shopping and review site Retrevo.com. The site says that while shoppers have installed retailers' apps, few have actually used it to help them buy something.
October data from Retrevo's ongoing Retrevo Pulse Report found that 43% of smartphone owners have installed a retailer's app on their mobile device, but only 14% of them have used that app to help them buy something in the store. Also, 78% of smartphone owners have checked out a product in-store, but then bought it from another online store, benefiting companies like Amazon at the expense of brick-and-mortar operations.
The demand is certainly there. When Retrevo.com asked study respondents if they had ever used a mobile device in a store to help them make a purchase, over half of smartphone owners said yes. Forty-two percent of them said they have used a mobile device in-store to check prices, and about 30% said they used the devices to read a review or look up specs while in stores, and a quarter have used a mobile device in-store to get a coupon. Clearly, retailers' apps are a link, but they appear to be the still-missing link.
Consumer electronics retailers apparently have the most to lose by not figuring out how to exploit the mobile Web and apps to expedite purchases in their stores versus losing consumers to online sellers or other retailers with lower prices. Retrevo's study found that 58% of smartphone owners have checked out electronics in a store, but then bought elsewhere online. The second-most-transient consumers are looking at shoes, with 41% of smartphone owners who shop footwear opting to buy online (nice work Zappos.)
After shoes comes the rest of the apparel arena, with 39% of smartphone owners using stores as clothes hangers and then buying elsewhere online. Then comes appliances, sporting gear and the home and garden category, where 19% of smartphone owners have gone online to close the deal through a Web seller after trudging the home and garden aisles.
A hint at what retailers could offer that might stem the tide is implied in the Retrevo.com stat that 53% of consumer electronics shoppers say they have gone into a store to buy electronics, but couldn't decide what to buy. Thirty percent of survey respondents said this happened because they did not have the information they needed (online prices, reviews, specs, etc.), followed by feeling overwhelmed by the number of choices.
And they also felt the salesperson was of little help.
Said Manish Rathi, Retrevo.com's co-founder and VP of marketing: "In today's market, where many brick-and-mortar retailers are trying to stay competitive, retailers can't afford to merely serve as a showroom for Amazon."
The firm says that as more consumers become smartphone owners, retailers will have to figure out how to exploit smartphones. Rathi says retailers have to focus on creating better, more informative mobile apps.
0 comments on "Retrevo: Retailers Need To Get Their Apps Together ".
- I have felt for awhile that the challenge of Mobile at Retail has less to do with the technology and more to do with the business model. . . The basic dilemma is that in the world of brick and mortar ownership of the consumer was pretty cut and dry. Outside the store they belong to the brand inside the store they belong to the retailer. Mobile completely upsets that apple cart and retailers have responded by trying to virtually stake out their brick and mortar space with an exclusive retail app. The sad fact is that for most retailers the average consumer is not an adherent to a retail brand and therefore sees little benefit in a retail branded app. The adoption numbers are bad and the usage numbers are even worse. What the consumer wants and or needs is an ecologically constructed app that allows the consumer to interact with the brand when he is off site and the retailer when he arrives at location. Technology exists in abundance to do that, but the level of agreement between the brands and the retailers is not there yet. Second retailers have to rethink what it is of value that they can provide at a retail location that is not provided virtually online or via mobile. . . They might take a cue from the Apple Store. . . The greatest retail app in the world is direct human interaction, centered around the customers needs, concerning the brands the customer is motivated to purchase.

To the Editor.— Ampicillin has been recommended as the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of Shigella infections.1 However, the recent rise in incidence of ampicillin-resistant Shigella may be forcing clinicians to reevaluate the effectiveness of ampicillin.From January 1968 to July 1973, 211 strains of Shigella were isolated at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City. Of these isolates, 169 (80.1%) were S sonnei, and 42 (19.9%) S flexneri. Antibiotic sensitivity tests used the standard Kirby-Bauer disk technique. The results are summarized in the Table.From 1968 to 1973, a rapid increase in ampicillin-resistant Shigella from 0% to 85.3% (S sonnei from 0% to 87.5%, S flexneri from 0% to 66.6%) occurred in our hospital. A similar increase in the rates of resistance to tetracycline and streptomycin was also observed.Up to 1968, no strain of Shigella had been found resistant to ampicillin. However, in 1973 68%

Correction: Obama-Bush story
August 9, 2013 @ 7:38 am
WASHINGTON (AP) - In a story Aug. 8 about President Barack Obama telephoning former President George W. Bush after Bush's heart procedure, The Associated Press reported erroneously that they last met in person in April at the opening of Bush's presidential library in Dallas. The two men saw each other in July in Tanzania at a memorial for victims of the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombing.
A corrected version of the story is below:
Obama calls George W Bush after heart procedure
In phone call, Obama wishes George W Bush well after heart procedure to ease blocked artery
WASHINGTON (AP) _ President Barack Obama has called his predecessor, former President George W. Bush, to wish him well as he recovers from a heart procedure to ease a blocked artery.
White House spokesman Jay Carney says the two spoke on Wednesday. He says Obama was glad to hear the procedure went well and that Bush is recovering.
Bush was discharged Wednesday from a Texas hospital a day after having a stent inserted to prop open an artery. The blockage was discovered during Bush's annual physical. Bush's spokesman says he's "doing great" and is expected to resume his normal schedule.

Rob Portman on Budget & EconomyRepublican Jr Senator; previously Representative (OH-2) | |
A big moment came when Fisher evoked the name of legendary Buckeye coach Woody Hayes when talking about saving jobs at plants like Cooper Tire in Findlay. "It means that we're going down that field, just like Woody Hayes did. Three yards and a cloud of dust, and we are not giving up," he said.
Portman responded by saying, "I think it's an insult to Woody Hayes' incredible record at Ohio State to somehow compare him to what's happening in Ohio the last four years. It hasn't been a successful game. We've been losing the game."
OFFICIAL CONGRESSIONAL SUMMARY: Amends the Internal Revenue Code to permit an individual to designate three dollars on his or her income tax return (six dollars on a joint return) to be used to reduce the public debt of the United States.
SPONSOR'S INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT: Pres. Eisenhower apparently once said that he believed that there could be no surplus as long as our Nation was in debt. I come from that school of thought, and yet that is not exactly where we are right now in Washington.
Where we are right now is debating whether or not 90 percent or 50 percent, or some number in between, of these projected future surpluses should be allocated to the debt. What struck me is the fact that really more than just the Congress should be involved in that debate. It is for that reason that I introduce today the Taxpayers' Choice Debt Reduction Act.
What this bill would do would be to simply take the 1040, the tax return as we now know it. And right now, we can send $3 to the presidential campaign. This would create another box wherein we could send 3 bucks to debt reduction. That is not enough money to change our national debt, but it is enough money to make a small step in an important debate that we all ought to be a part of.
LEGISLATIVE OUTCOME: Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means; never called for a House vote.
Faith2Action.org is "the nation's largest network of pro-family groups." They provide election resources for each state, including Voter Guides and Congressional Scorecards excerpted here. The Faith2Action survey summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: 'American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the stimulus bill) '
[As part of the Contract with America, within 100 days we pledge to bring to the House Floor the following bill]:
The Fiscal Responsibility Act:
A balanced budget/tax limitation amendment and a legislative line-item veto to restore fiscal responsibility to an out-of-control Congress, requiring them to live under the same budget constraints as families and businesses.
