Judge in Va. strikes doWn federal health Care law

ASSOCIATED PRESS

RICHMOND. Va. - A
federal judge declared the

Barack Obama·s health

Monday. ruling that the
government
cannot
require Americans to purchase insurance. The case
is expected to end up at
the Supreme Court.

to be any immediate

taken effect. The insurance coverage mandate is
not scheduled to begin

until 2014.
Even so, Republicans
in Congress celebrated
the ruling as validation of
the arguments they had
made for months while
the law was pending.
Rep. E1ic Cantor. R-Va..
issued a statement urging
the White House to agree
to expedite a final ruling
by appealing directly to
the Supreme Court without first stopping at an
appeals court.
Hudson is the first federal judge to strike down
a key part of the law,

by fellow federal judges

The lawsuit was filed
by
Cuccinelli,
a
Republican. in defense
of a new state law passed
in reaction to the federal
overhaul that prohibits
the government from
forcing state residents to
buy health insurance.
Cuccinelli argued that
while the government
can regulate economic
activity that substantially
affects ·interstate commerce, the decision not
to
buy
insurance
amounts to economic
inactivity that is beyond
the government's reach.
''This won't be the

Constitution,"
Cuccinelli said in a state-·

Hudson. a Republican
ar,pointed by President
George W. Bush, sounded sympathetic to the
state's case when he
heard oral arguments in
October, and the White
House expected to lose
this round.
Administration officials told reporters last
week that a negative ruling would have virtually
no impact on the law's
implementation, noting
that its two major provisions - the coverage
mandate and the creation
of new insurance markets - don· t take effect
until 2014.

Obama: Nutrition bill vital to children's future
BY MARY CLARE
JALONICK
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON
Thousands more children
would eat lunches and dinners at school and all
school
food
would
become more nutritious
under a bill President
Barack Obama signed into
law Monday. part of an
administration-wide effort
to combat childhood obesity.
"At a very basic level,
this act is about doing
what's right for our children:· Obama said before
signing the bill. The ceremony was moved from the
White House. where most
signings are held, to an
elementary school in the
District of Columbia to
underscore the point.

Besides Obama, the bill
also was a primity for his
wife, Michelle, ·who
launched a national cam·paign this year against
childhood obesity.
"We can all agree that in
the wealthiest nation on
earth all children should
have the basic nutrition
they need to learn and
grow and to pw·sue their
dreams:·
said
Mrs.
Obama. "Because in the
end. nothing is more
important than the health
and well-being of our children. Nothing."
The $4.5 billion measure increases the federal
reimbursement for free
school lunches by 6 cents
a meal at a time when
many school officials say
they can· t afford to provide the meals. The bill
will also expand access to

free lunch programs and
allow 20 million additional after-school meals to be
served annually in all 50
states. Most states now
only provide money for
after-school snacks.
The new law aims to cut
down on greasy foods and
extra calories by giving the
government power to
decide what kinds of foods
may be sold on school
grounds, including in
vending machines and at
fundraisers. While the
government has long had
nutrition requirements for
the free and reduced cost
meals it subsidizes, the bill
would expand those
requirements to cover all
foods sold during school
hours. It does not apply to
afte~schoolevents.

Bake sales and other
fundraisers that don't meet

the
new
nutritional
requirements would be
allowed during the school
day as long as they are
infrequent. The language
in the bill is broad enough
that a president's administration could even ban
bake sales, but Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vtlsack has
said that he does not
intend to do that. The
USDA has a year to write
rules that decide how frequent is infrequent.
Public health advocates
pushed for the fundraising
language, saying they are
concerned about daily or
weekly fundraisers that
allow children to frequently substitute junk food for
a healthier meal.
Many
Republicans.
including former Alaska
Gov. Sarah Palin, have
criticized the effort and the

fundraiser limits in particular. saying the bill is too
expensive and an example
of government overreach.
Supporters say the law is
needed to stem rising
health care costs due to
expanding
American
waistlines and to feed hungry children in tough economic times. Mrs. Oban1a
cited a group of fom1er
generals and military offi-.
cials who have said
unhealthy school lunches
are a national security
threat because weight
problems are now the
leading medical reason
that recruits are rejected.
She said it is ultimately
the responsibility of parents more than anyone else
to make sure their children
eat right and get enough
exercise. but that government has a role to play.

especially when children
spend so much of their
time each day at school
and when tnany of them
get up to half their daily
calorie intake from eating
school meals.
''It's clear that we, as a
nation. have a responsibility to meet as well." she
said. "We can't just leave it
to the parents. I think that
parents have a right to
expect that their efforts at
home won't be undone
each day in the school
cafeteria or in the vending
machine in the ballway."
The new nutrition stan- .
dards would be written by
the
Agriculture
Department, which would
decide which kinds of
foods may be sold and
what ingredients can be
used in school cafeterias
and vending machines.

Behravesh said.
Since the year began,
stress has declined the most
in
South
Carolina.
Alabama. New Hampshire.
Michigan
and
Massachusetts. It's risen
the most in Utah, Nevada, ,
Florida.
Hawaii and
Louisiana.
Florida's economy Jacks
a substantial manufacturing base and depends on
tourists. who typically cut
back on spending or eliminate travel plans when
money is tight.
"Manufacturing is having a bit of a resurgence.

and with Florida lacking a
large manufacturing sector,
we're not really participating in that particular
uptick," said Sean Snaith,
an economist at the
University of Central
Florida. "We were certainly impacted by the Gulf oil
spill. and we still have high
unemployment. All of
these things kind of swirl
into this misery stew that
keeps stress high in
Florida.''
Some Western states.A
like Idaho, New Mexico~
and Utah, suffered higher 1
unemployment in October,
though their rates were still
below the 9.6 percent
national rate. A slow
recovery in those states,
coupled with high stress in
Arizona, California and
Nevada. have caused the
West to trail the overall
U.S. recovery.

Genemlly under previous Jaw, only dependents up
- to age 19 (or det&gt;endcnts up to age 23 if they v.ere still in

,
A. Tite parent should contact the employer or insurer to
ask how to enroll the older-age child and what the cost of
the co\Cl11£l' will be.
Q: How dtJ the state and fedenil laws \vork together?
A: Thefcderal law requires health plans and health
insurers that oOer dependent coverage to make coverage

Q: When may :m older-age child enroll'?

begins on the first day of the first plan year even if the
request for enrollml!nt is made after the first day.
A parent also may enroll an older-age child for state

'Go outside and play'
.
BY MARY KUHLMAN
OHIO NEWS CONNECTION

JiVhat's all the fuss about top
tax rates going up 4. 6 percent?

Seven hours in front of electronic
entertainment. and seven minutes
outside. That's what · constitutes
"play" for most kids, according to a
Kaiser Family Foundation study and that lack of outdoor activity is
being cited as one reason for rising
childhood obesity in legislation
recently introduced in Congress.
The "Moving Outdoors in Nature
Act'' would encourage states to collaborate with communities, businesses and parents to increase children's time outdoors. says Patrick
Fitzgerald, director of education
advocacy for the National Wildlife
Federation (NWF).
"These state strategies could look
at things like walking and biking to
school; looking at the school system
and after-school programs and seeing how we can have time for outdoor play and outdoor activities."
Fitzge~ald says getting people of
all ages to spend time outside is not
just a health issue: it's also important for the economy, especially in
parts of the state where hunting i _s
prevalent.
"With the decline that we're seeing
in hunting participation, that has an
impact on the state agencies that
sell hunting licenses, and also the
companies that sell that equipment. ..
The bill. H.R. 6426, has been
introduced 111 the U.S. House of
Representatives.
In
addition
to
NWF, the Sierra Club, the YMCA are
supporting the legislation, too. as
part of the Outdoors Alliance for
Kids.

BY KENNETH LEWIS
AMERICAf\ FORUM

The national conversation on
our fiscal health for the past few
months has been about whether to
extend the Bush-era tax cuts for
households with incomes over
$250,000. or to allow them to
expire on Dec. 31. To my amazement, lost in all this controversy
and discussion has been any mention of what this would really
mean for high-income people in
the context of historical tax rates.
During the 1950s this country
was flourishing economically and
adding new jobs that moved millions of people out of poverty and
into the middle class. What kind
of tax policy was in place during
this period, those years after
World War II when the Baby
Boomers were growing up?
What was the top marginal tax
rate during all eight years of the
Eisenhower Administration? 91
percent! The increase proposed
for today's rates seems paltry. and
the top rate seems very low, in
fact too low, and incongruent with
the needs of the country for
investment right now in education, health and infrastructure.
This comparison is also true
when looking broadly over the
mid-century; during the years
from 1935 to 1980 the marginal
rates were never below 70 percent.
One can only wonder what the
big fuss is all about.
Right now people pay income

tax cut worries Social Security advocates

WASHINGTON (AP)
Pres1dent
Barack
Ohama':s plan to cut payroll taxes for a vear would
provide big savings for
many workers. but makes
Social Security advocates
nervous that it could jeopm·di/e the retirement program's tinances.
The plan is part of a
package of tax cuts and
extended unemployment
benefits that Obama negoSenate
tiated
with
Republican leaders. It
would cut workers' share
of Social Security taxes by
nearly one-third for 20 II.
Workers making $50,000
in wages would get a
$1.000 tax cut; those making $100,000 would get a
$2,(X)0 tax cut.
The government would
borrow about $112 billion
to make Social Security
whole. Advocates and
some lawmakers worry
that relying on borrowed
money to fund Social
Se~.:urity could eventually
force it to compete with
other federal programs for

sc;u·ce dollars, leading to
cuts.
Soc1al Security taxes
"ought to be held sacrosanct,'' said Rep. Earl
Pomeroy, D-N.D .. chairman of the House Ways
and Mean.., subcommittee
on Social Security.
"When you start to signal that the (Social
Security) tax levels arc
negotiabk, you end up in
long-tem1 trouble. 1 think.
in terms of making
absolutely certain that the
entitlement
funding
streams are
secure.''
Pomeroy said.
Social Security is funded by a 6.2 percent payroll
tax on the first $106,800
earned by a worker. The
tax is matched by employers. The package negotiated by Obama would
reduce the tax paid by
worker~ to 4.2 percent for
2011 . Employer rates
would stay unchanged.
Obama administration
onicials say that a payroll
tax cut is an eft1cient way
to stimulate . the economy

by immediately increasing
take home pay for about
155 million workers. The
nonpartisan Congressional
Budget Oflice agree':&gt;. and
many business groups and
Republicuns support it.
"What came out of the
compromise was the idea
of the payroll tax holiday,
which, frankly. a huge
number of economists and
oth~.:r experts had been
talking about over the last
two years with a lot of support in both political parties," said Larry Summers,
Obama's chief economic
adviser.
The
United
Auto
Workers endorsed the
deal, saying. "Working
families will likely spend
this money in their local
communities,
creating
jobs and stimulating overall growth."
The payroll tax cut is
part of a larger package
negotiated by Oban1a and
GOP lawmakers to extend
a sweeping array of Bush
era tax cuts that expire at
the end of the month.

Some Democratic Jawmaker~ have balked at the
plan. saying it is tilted too
much in favor of the rich.
The payroll tax cut
would provide relief to any
worker canting a wage. It
would replace Obama's
Making Work Pay lax
credit, which has provided
modest increases in most
\vorkers' paychecks for the
past two years.
The payroll tax credit
would be more generous
to individuals ~making
more than $20.000 and
married couples making
more than . !!HO.OOO. For
those making less. the
payroll tax cut would be

which expires at the end of
the year. gives workers a
tax credit of 6.2 percent of
their wages, but it is
capped at S400 for individuals and $800 for couples. The credit is phased
out for individuals making
more than $75.000 and
t·ouplcs making more than

$150.000.
A worker would have to
make $20,000 in wages
for the payroll tax cut to
equal the $400 Making
Work Pay tax credit; couetcs would have to make
$40,000.
At the wealthy end of
the pay scale, workers

Stocks end mixed ahead of Senate vote on tax deal

The tax-cut compromise brokcrcd by the

If enacted. the package

Arrests in Afghan attack that killed 6 US troops
Bv R AHIM

FAIEZ

ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL. Afghanistan
- Several suspects have
been arrested for a suicide
attack that killed six U.S.
troops when an explosivespacked minibus blew up at
the entrance of a joint
NATO-Afghan base in
southern Afghanistan. officials said Monday.
NATO o,pokesman Brig.
Gen. Josef Blotz said that
several mrests had been
made Sunday night for the
blast. which was the deadliest attack on coalition
troops this month.
"Individuals believed to
be involved in yesterday's
attack. have been arrested
by Afghan &lt;md coalition
forces." Blot;. said at a
news conference, adding
that no shots were tired as
the suspects were taken
into custody.
NATO has declined to
identify
the
victims'
nationalitiesf
but
an
Afghan army oftlcial in
southern Afghanistan said
on Monday that the six
were Americans. He spoke

on condition of anonymity
because he was not authoriz~.:d to speak abom NATO
casualtico,.
He said the confim1ation
came in an oft1cial report
about the attack.
NATO has claimed
improvements in security
after months of raids,
patrols and strikes on
insurgents in Kandahar
province, but Sunday's
attack shows the area is
still far from safe.
The assault came just
days ahead of a major
White House review of its

then OU-Eastern kind of
came back a little bit.
All the credit to them,
they played very hard,
they played aggressive,
they shot 46 percent
from the field, 47 percent from the three, they .
came in here with nothing to lose and everything to gain," said Rio
Grande assistant coach
Kirsten Roberson.
Roberson talked about
the fact Rio went into
this game not having a
lot of information on the
Lady Panthers.
"We
kind of went into it
blind, he had a few
quick-hitters that we
had, but we really didn't
play up to our potential
and again, not taking
anything from OUEastern, they came in
and played hard, but we
have to get ready for the
MSC, which is going to
be whole different ballgame," she said. '
Rio Grande will step
back into MSC play next
Thursday
(December
16) when NAIA No. 4
CampbeJlsviJle comes to •
town. Tip-off is set for
6p.m.

wander ... try some great music.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
**** The situation concerning a
partnership could involve a child, love
affair or creative passion. The point
remains that you could find yourself
juggling different interests. The SJ!Iart
Virgo will detach and see what happens. Tonight Have an important discussion, so that another person understands where you are coming from.
LmRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 22)
Defer to others, especially if
you are having difficulty within your
immediate circle. Juggling others' concerns could be too much. Screen your
calls, understanding that you have
limits. Someone could be off the wall.
Detach. Tonight: find a pal to swap
war stories with.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-r\o\. 21)
You keep putting your best
foot forward, to no avail. The time will
come if you trust and relax. What you
hear and what someone might be saying could be upsetting. Let it go.
'
Discussions at a later date will be illuminating. Tonight: Put your feet up.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
***What a child or loved one
could do might surprise you. Use caution with risks, especially if they
involve your fmances. By saying "yes,"
you could find your account'&gt; rapidly
drained. Understand your limit&lt;&gt;.
Tonight: Take some personal time.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
*** You could to~s a boomerang
into a situation without intending to.
·me end result could be you on the
defensive. Honor your priorities,
domestic life and security. Right now,
play it cool. Tonight Visit with a
friend.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You mean well.
Communication, though well intended, could ret1ect your inner judgmenU;
in some manner. Wheth.er your expression, body language or voice gives you
away, there is no cloaking your feelings right now. 1onight: Do ~me yoga
or take a walk. Relax.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
***Use care with a group, meeting or friend. Though no one intends
to cost you a lot, they do just that.
Remember, it is you who is doling out
the money and feeling the impact, not
the recipients. Tonight Talk to a trust
ed adviser.

.

You have your hands full this year.
Fortunately, unusual creativity mixed
with high intelligence permits you to
move in a new direction or to discover
novel, good solutions. Use caution
with your finances. Don't get involved
with others, even if an offer seems
solid. If you are single, you meet others with ease. Oloosing the right person for you could lake time, though
you could have quite the rush of suitors. If you are attached, the two of you
need to have separate bank accounts if
you cannot agree on spending.
Romance soars this spring, even for
the attached. ARIFS c.an be a lot of
fun.

ARIES (March 21-April19)
****You might feel A-OK, but
with the amount of challenges, disagreements and confusion surrounding you, feeling overwhelmed at some
point in the day is no surprise. Know
that of all signs, you are in the best
position to co~. Tonight Let go of the
day and greet the nigllt.
·'
TAURUS (April 2Q-May 20)
*** As more and more information comes in, you might decide to call
it a day, no matter what you are doing.
Heading home where you might be
more comfortable isn't surprising to
anyone. A partner tries to make life
smoother. Tonight Screen your calls.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
**** Difficulties surround a key
partnership as you eye a situation.
You might wonder if it is bad or good.
Judging different situations and people in these terms might prevent you
from flowing through some unexpected changes. Tonight Stop al the gym.
Get a massage, if possible.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
***Your very playful personality
manifests itself, despite a difficult associate, family member or friend. You
seem impervious to him or her, though
you are feeling the vibes. Stay sensitive, but do what you must Tonight
Take the lead.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
**** Detach and look at the big
story rather than get hung up on all
the details right now. The panorama
will be changing, in any case, with
new information. Understand what is
happening beyond the obvious.
Tonight: Relax your mind so it can

15 HeiJman Trophy winners,'' Commissioner Jim
Delany said in an exclusive interview with The
Associated Press. ··we
thought it made perfect
sense to recognize the
iconic and the legendary
through the naming of the
division in that regard ....
We've had plenty of leaders in the conference.

that's for sure, but the
emphasis here is to recognize the mission of using
intercollegiate athletics
and higher education to
build future leaders."

team next year. the conference created new divisions that it introduced in
September.

Indiana. Ohio State. Penn

Northwestern in the
Legends Division.
Delany said the conference had considered naming the divisions after
coaches. players, commissioners and faculty but
it was too difficult to single out just two. It also
disdained from going
with compass points since
geography had been only
the third consideration
when the conference
announced the divisional

setup three months ago. In
order, the main factors
were competitive balance,
maintaining rivalries, and
then geography.
Asked if Leaders and
Legends was too bland, or
not unique to the Big Ten,
Delany responded, "All
of these things will
engender discussion. We
want to engage our fans.
All I can tell you is that
we thought long and hard
about what not to do. We
thought harder about what
to do."
The logo is a block
"Big Ten" which mcludes
an homage to the original
10 members with those
numerals embedded in the
last two letters of the
word Big.
The
design
firm
Pentagram came up with
the new logo. And, no, the
conference never seriously considered putting a 12
in its logo or changing its
well-known brand name
to include the number of
members today.
"There will be people

who would want us to be
digitally correct with our
nan1e and our number. but
I think we have I 00-percent support of the people
who have responsibility
for these programs - in
fact, it was a presidential
directive - that we maintain our name." Delany

RedStorm men suffer
tough loss to UC ·Clermont
BY MARK WILLIAMS
SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

RIO GRANDE, Ohio The University of Rio
Grande RedStorm men's
basketball team suffered a
disappointin.&amp; 69-66 loss to
Cincmnati-Llermont on
Saturday afternoon at the
Newt Oliver Arena in the
20 l 0 Newt Oliver Coaches
Classic.
It was a nip and tuck
affair in the first half with
both teams sharing leads.
Rio's b_i~_&amp;est lead was 7-5
while uc Clermont held
an ei~ht-point advantage at
18-lu. Rio Grande (4-6)
battled back to take a 3635 lead at halftime.
The RedStorm would
seemingly take control of
the game in the second half
as they built the advantage
to nine points at 47-38.
Clermont (5-5) was not
finished however as the
visitors fought back to tie
the game at 56-56. The
score would be tied three
more times before the final
hom sounded.
Clermont's Tyler Knabb
nailed the go-ahead three
to make the score 65-62.
Knabb connected on five
treys in the game to score
15 points.
Rio had a chance to tie
the game at the buzzer. but
a desperation three-point
attempt did not go.
Junior f01ward Shaun
Gunnell led the RedStorm
with 16 points. Junior
guard Brad Cubbie added
15 points and senior center
Robbie Jackson chipped in
with I 0 points. Freshman
center Josh Birchfield
topped the rebounding
chart for the RedStorm
with six.
Maurice McGee led the
Cougars with 18 points.
He also dished out six
ass1sts. Travis Donald and
Nick Baynes scored 12
points each.
Baynes
scored 10 of his I 2 in the
second half.
Both teams shot the ball'

'

well from the field. Rio
connected on 57.4 percent
(27-of-47) of its attempts.
UC Clermont countered
with 51.9 percent (27-of52) from the field, including 56.3 percent (9-of-16)
from three-point land. A
key factor in the game was
turnovers. Rio committed
23 miscues to only 14 for
UC Clermont.
"This is very disappointing," said Rio Grande head
coach Ken French. "It's a
classic case of we're a very
fragile team right now and
&lt;.:urniug uut of exams it
was a great challenge for
us and we didn't respond
to the challenge the way
that we needed to."
"Unfortunately, we're
only judged by what happens on the scoreboard and
the sad thing about it is
everybody looks at it and
says Rio's down, the
wheels have come off, we
haven't,'' French added.
"We· re going to be fine,
we've got to take this is as
a positive and hope that
this might be the best thing
that ever happened to us
and we have some guys
step up and take ownership
and right the ship."
French
said
that
turnovers were the difference in the game.
''Turnovers were why we
lost the game, I think we
had 12 in the second half
and we ended up with 23
for the game and it was
unforced turnovers, throwing a bad pass. we weren't
in sync and we looked like
a team that wasn't in sync
and you can't sugarcoat it
or anything like that, it is
what it is. we played horribly and we got what pur
play,dictated. We gol a
loss.
Rio will retwn to MidSouth Conference action
on Thursday (December
16) when Campbellsville
comes to the Newt. lipoff for the game is set 8
p.m.
