RICHMOND

A Liberty University lawyer urged a federal appeals court to overturn the Obama administration’s health care reform law Thursday, arguing that it violates the school’s religious rights by requiring it to provide insurance coverage for abortion-inducing drugs.

Mathew Staver told a three-judge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that the conservative Christian university founded by Jerry Falwell faces millions of dollars in penalties if it refuses to provide employee health insurance that violates its religious beliefs.

“The hammer is about ready to fall on Liberty,” Staver said.

U.S. Justice Department attorney Alisa B. Klein argued that employee health insurance provided by Liberty already meets the law’s minimum requirements without including the benefits that the university finds objectionable.

“As best we can tell from everything they’ve said in their complaint, they’re fine,” Klein said.

She also told the court that the law will allow for coverage options that do not include abortion drugs or contraceptives, but Staver disagreed.

“Every plan has to include abortifacients,” he said.

The appeals panel is the same one that in 2011 ruled 2-1 that Liberty’s lawsuit was premature. It consists of two Obama appointees Judges Andre M. Davis and James A. Wynn Jr. and Bill Clinton appointee Diana Gribbon Motz. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the health reform law in another case last June, and in November the justices ordered the appeals court to reconsider Liberty’s case in light of that ruling.

Appeals court hears Liberty U. health reform challenge

May 182013

RICHMOND, Va. Judges on the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday appeared skeptical that Liberty University can challenge the Obama administrations rule that most employers provide contraceptives in their employee health plans.

But at least one of the judges suggested that the health reform laws employer mandate could be at risk since last years Supreme Court health care ruling narrowed the Commerce Clause.

In addition to saying that the health laws employer mandate is beyond Congresss legislative authority, Liberty University attorneys argued that Obamacares individual and employer mandates violate their religious freedoms. They say it requires the school to cover contraceptives and other drugs that they say can cause abortions.

Obama administration lawyers said Liberty didnt include that complaint about birth control in its original claim the suit was first filed in 2010 but was largely put on hold as the Supreme Court case against the health law advanced so the school cant add that argument now.

The judges suggested in several questions that they might agree, given that Liberty filed its claim years before the regulation was released.

This case is very different from the case you filed a couple years ago, said Judge Andre Davis, who was appointed by President Barack Obama.

Liberty Counsel Chairman Mathew Staver said the university had always raised concerns that the law would require abortion coverage. He said its a pressing issue as the school will be subject to millions of dollars in fines starting in August.

The hammer is about ready to fall on Liberty, he said.

Dozens of other institutions are challenging the birth control issue but did not file their suits until after the proposed regulations were released.

While the panel of judges suggested they might not even rule on the birth control issue, Judge Diana Gribbon Motz, who was appointed by President Bill Clinton, spent a significant amount of time pulling out of Justice Department lawyer Alisa Klein whether the preventive coverage provision requires all insurance plans to cover abortion and drugs that Liberty says can cause abortions.

MAJURO, Marshall Islands: A drought has left areas of the Marshall Islands facing “dire” water shortages with aid agencies scrambling to ship relief to affected communities, officials in the Pacific nation said Wednesday.

With almost no rainfall since late last year on some of the northern islands, the government this week issued a disaster declaration as villages began rationing water to preserve supplies.

“We’ve got 3,700 people without drinking water, the situation is dire,” national water advisor Tom Vance said on Wednesday following a trip to Mejit Island.

Health officials said water tanks were running low and water from wells had turned brackish, making it unsafe to drink. Without rain, the only other source of liquid for the islanders is coconuts.

“The situation is increasingly desperate if this drought persists in the northern islands and atolls,” said Chief Secretary Casten Nemra, who is heading the emergency relief program.

The United States and Australian governments this week announced $100,000 in emergency aid grants, with the US also donating four reverse osmosis water-making units which are expected to arrive in the next few days.

The Marshall Islands government said it hoped to buy more of the units and send a ship to the disaster zone carrying 450 collapsible water containers filled to capacity.

Nemra said the drought had severely damaged local food crops and there were health fears for the population, with cases of diarrhoea, conjunctivitis, influenza and other illnesses already being reported.

“The northern Marshall Islands is under incredible level of hardship and reports indicate that conditions will get worse in the coming days,” he said. -AFP

The private sector will be asked to build and operate a 423-bed hospital on the northern beaches to complement Mona Vale Hospital, which will be redeveloped and reduced in size.

Manly Hospital will close as foreshadowed and bed numbers at Mona Vale Hospital will be reduced from 142 to 66.

Health Minister Jillian Skinner said expressions of interest would be invited from the private sector to design, construct and run the new hospital at Frenchs Forest. It will include 173 beds for privately insured patients and is due to open in 2018.

Mrs Skinner said the successful tenderer would be a private or not-for-profit hospital operator. The hospital would revert to public ownership in 20 years.

“This innovative model is a first in NSW,” she said. “Partnering with a private or not-for-profit hospital operator will allow the hospital to be built faster, delivering better value for the taxpayers of NSW.”

Mrs Skinner said the government had learnt lessons from the failed privatisation of Port Macquarie Hospital. She said the public private partnership model used would be more flexible than the one for Port Macquarie. It would be similar to the model used at Joondalup Health Campus in West Australia.

The hospital will include an emergency department and provide surgical, medical, paediatric, obstetric and inpatient mental health services.

Jakarta (The Jakarta Post/ANN) – Indonesia’s Health Ministry has officially recognised the Thousand Islands regency as the country’s first region free from malaria.

“This year, the Thousand Islands regency has successfully become the first region to obtain a malaria-free certificate,” Health Minister Nafsiah Mboi told a 2013 World Malaria Day event in Jakarta, on Thursday.

“I’m sure and believe that in the coming years, one at a time, all the regions of our beloved country, Indonesia, will be free from malaria,” she said.

Nafsiah said malaria was a major health problem in the world. Citing the World Health Malaria Report, she said that 219 million malaria cases resulting in 660,000 deaths were reported in 2012.

“In Indonesia, 417,000 malaria cases were reported in 2012, almost three quarters of these were in Papua, West Papua and East Nusa Tenggara (NTT),” Nafsiah said.

She said that the ministry’s malaria-control initiatives included launching the Forum Gebrak Malaria (Hitting Malaria Forum) in 10 provinces in 2013, increasing the number of malaria centres in eastern parts of Indonesia to 11 from the current eight and establishing 2,022 village-level malaria posts (Polmaldes) across Indonesia; as well as distributing insecticide-treated bed nets, rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) and anti-malarial drugs.

La Palma and Tenerife Islands Launch the First Telemedicine Service in Spain

LIBERTY Two years ago, Liberty High School’s jazz ensemble played in a hallway as parents and residents converged on a board meeting hoping to save a music-teacher position that was included in proposed cuts.

A year ago, the school district introduced an instructional budget based on eliminating teacher assistant and aide positions, cutting hours for other instructors and shortening summer school by two weeks.

But this year is different. Buoyed by an increase in state aid, the district’s tentative $20.9 million instructional budget doesn’t include any personnel cuts. Rather, school officials are planning to add two elementary school teachers in response to an enrollment increase, all while keeping the tax levy increase at or below 2 percent.

“I think we were able to hit all those marks pretty well, without a lot of pain,” Superintendent William Silver said. “This is one of those years for us where all of the numbers broke in the right direction.”

Liberty shed the equivalent of nearly 15 teachers over the last four years. The district cuts included the equivalent of six full-time teacher positions in both the 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 school years. Reductions since 2009 include guidance counselors and elementary-education and English teachers.

“The cuts the last three years have been pretty significant,” Silver said.

Next year’s projected budget totals slightly less than $41 million, a 1.9 percent overall increase and a 4 percent increase in the instructional budget. The budget calls for adding second- and third-grade teachers as enrollment for those grades is projected to increase by 62 students.

Instructional salaries would rise by $771,288. But the district estimates that it will save about $600,000 in salary and benefits, because 16 teachers have decided to take a retirement package. The district and its teacher’s union included a retirement-incentive program in a new contract approved in June 2012. The contract also called for union members to pay more toward their health insurance.

Liberty district’s state aid boost means no personnel cuts

Americas foremost libertarian, Ron Paul, received a standing ovation Friday from Canadian conservatives gathered for an annual conference, after a speech that advocated the abolition of central banks, income tax and social programs.

But on the sidelines of the networking conference, sponsored by the Manning Centre for Building Democracy, some Tories noted that Mr. Pauls views were disconnected from the more moderate Canadian conservative movement and the nation in general.

A survey released at the conference indicated Canadians still count on government to handle the economy.

Were not Americans in that sense [Canadians] regard government as a positive force, said longtime conservative pollster Andre Turcotte, adding that the public is looking for more innovative ways of service delivery.

Few Conservative parliamentarians attended Mr. Pauls morning speech, in which he encapsulated his views on the primacy of individual liberty and the problems with current economic models all centred on the concept of government getting out of the way of peoples lives and the free market.

Mr. Paul formerly a Republican leadership candidate and congressman is an opponent of centralized monetary policy, government support for industry, federal social programs and the regulation of illicit drugs. At home, he has advocated for the abolition of the federal Health and Education departments.

Wouldnt it be correct to assume that the fruits of your labour are also yours to keep? Mr. Paul said, interrupted by applause.

My goodness, that would be a challenging thought. What does that mean? There wouldnt be any income tax? Thats right, we wouldnt have income taxes, because it would be your money. Then everyone would start worrying then how would you pay for the government? Well, why dont we have a lot less government and we wouldnt have to worry about that. Thats what Id like.

Preston Manning, the former Reform party leader and host of the conference, later asked Mr. Paul questions but did not challenge his views. Much of the conference agenda was dominated by guests associated with the more libertarian Reform party-Canadian Alliance side of the Tory family.

But the current Conservative government under Stephen Harper has heavily branded its stimulus project the Economic Action Plan as the cornerstone of the governments agenda. Its skills programs, funding for seniors and snowmobile clubs, and various industrial subsidies would appear antithetical to Mr. Pauls non-interventionist policies.

Im a week late on this, but Holman Jenkins has an excellent discussion of why health care costs and pricing (not the same thing!) are insane, and why ObamaCare will only make it worse:

Duke Universitys Clark Havighurst [wrote] a brilliant 2002 article that describes the regulatory, legal and tax subsidies that deprive consumers of both the incentive and opportunity to demand value from medical providers. Americans end up with a Hobsons choice: either coverage for Cadillac care or no health coverage at all.

The market failure most responsible for economic inefficiency in the health-care sector is not consumers ignorance about the quality of care, Mr. Havighurst writes, but rather their ignorance of the cost of care, which ensures that neither the choices they make in the marketplace nor the opinions they express in the political process reveal their true preferences.

You might turn next to an equally fabulous 2001 article by Berkeley economist James C. Robinson, who shows how the pernicious doctrine that health care is differentthat consumers must shut up, do as theyre told and be prepared to write a blank checkis used to justify every inefficiency, idiosyncrasy, and interest-serving institution in the health care industry.

Hospitals, insurers and other institutions involved in health care may battle over available dollars, but they also share an interest in increasing the nations resources being diverted into health carewhich is exactly what happens when costs are hidden from those who pay them.

Put aside whether President Obama could have pushed real reform if he wanted to. ObamaCare as it emerged from Congress fulfills the insight that any highly regulated system ends up benefiting those with influence, i.e., health-care providers and high-end customers, not those of modest means.

What are ObamaCares mandates on individuals and employers except an attempt to force back into the insurance market those who have been priced out by previous reforms so their money can be used to prop up a system of gold-plated coverage that mostly benefits those in the highest tax brackets? What are ObamaCares minimum coverage standards except a requirement that these customers buy more costly coverage than they would choose for themselves so their money can be used for somebody else?

Partners for Promise: Crossfit BGI Steve's Club Palm Beaches
Q: Why was it important for Crossfit BGI and Steve's Club Palm Beaches to be involved in the community? A: We see a need for our kids/youth in Palm Beach County to be more active, to care about their health, and to know that there are organizations out there willing to help them find a way to enjoy healthy activities and provide a safe place for them to do that. It is important for them to know that working out should not feel like a chore but something fun that motivates us to be better…better athletes and better people. This community is where we and our families live, and we see the need to expand what we have found in CrossFit to those who may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience this type of accomplishment, commitment, and success! This is where improvement and success can be measured daily. Q: Was there a specific reason Crossfit BGI and Steve's Club Palm Beaches chose to give back to the community? A: We have seen the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Not only for physical health benefits, but also the mental health benefits that it brings to everyone involved. The empowerment everyone feels after conquering a hard workout can easily be taken into our everyday lives. When people ask us “What are you training for?” we simply say that “We are training for life!” That is what we want to give our kids who participate in the program…extra tools to succeed in life! We want them to be stronger mentally, physically, and emotionally! All of this can be …

JUPITER, Fla. — Would banning smoking at beaches and parks go too far?

Caitlyn Johnston, a high school senior from Jupiter doesn’t think so. She said her grandfather died from tobacco-related illness.

“I saw the effect it had on my family,” said Johnston. “No one else should have to go through that.”

Caitlyn started working with the Health Department’s tobacco prevention specialist. She cleaned local beaches, finding pounds of tobacco products.

Now Caitlyn is backing the efforts of State Representative Bill Hager of Delray Beach. He’s sponsoring a bill that would give cities and counties the ability to ban outdoor smoking at parks and beaches. Right now local governments cannot do that.

But the idea of banning outdoor smoking was a tough sell to the men playing Boccie ball at Carlin Park in Jupiter.

“Smokers should at least have the outdoors to smoke,” said Frank Caprino, who identified himself as a parttime smoker.

Chimed in Bill Byrne, “As long as you don’t litter, and the smoke doesn’t bother anybody, I think you’d be okay out here.”

“I’m not telling them they can’t smoke,” said Caitlyn. “They can smoke outside in their backyard. They can smoke in other areas where children and parks aren’t going to be affected.”
