(with apologies to those of you who do not read Pterry; some of this might be a bit opaque to you. This and this might help before you start)
You guys know me. I'm a good time girl. All I want to do* is have a few beers and sing lewd songs, and enable others to do the same if they want to. My personal investment in the character of Gytha Ogg is so great that she's front and centre in the banner at the top of my blog, with her cheeky grin and her mug of ale. But it seems that every time I settle down to have a good go at the hedgehog song of late, somebody in the party decides that's the exact moment to say something bloody stupid or pointless or ridiculous or illiberal, and I have to stand up and shout "I can't be having with THIS!"...
I mean, look at the list we've had of late. The tuition fees "personal pledge". The NHS debacle. The internet snooping. And it's not just the top brass making stupid policy decisions, either. Whether it's FCC thinking that they can subvert a perfectly clear conference vote or a party activist thinking that The West Wing is How Things Should Happen over here (rather than a fictionalised account of how things might happen in the US with no shoulds involved at all)**, there are large swathes of the party who seem determined to turn me into a curmudgeonly old bag.
Of course, when this happens there are invariably those who feel it's my reaction to the bloody stupid or pointless or ridiculous or illiberal thing that makes the party look bad, rather than the actual bloody stupid or pointless or ridiculous or illiberal thing itself. Because, you know, someone getting upset when the party does something bloody stupid or pointless or ridiculous or illiberal? That's EMBARRASSING. Much less embarrassing to let the bloody stupid or pointless or ridiculous or illiberal thing carry on and not kick up a fuss. After all, we're liberals, we're famous for standing by and taking it and not rocking the boat... Oh, hang on, that's not right at all, is it?
The thing about Granny Weatherwax, with her righteous anger and her admirable power, is... She's not actually a particularly nice or happy person. Sure, she's a useful person to have around, and she makes the world a better place with her shouty boat-rocking, but at enormous, and I mean ENORMOUS personal sacrifice. Whereas Nanny Ogg? She makes the world a better place too. Maybe not in as spectacular and showy ways as Granny, but she is no less revolutionary in her own way, her boat-rocking is of a much more - um - pleasurable nature, and she is both happy in herself and causes happiness in others. Most of the source of the happiness that she both contains and radiates is that sometimes others think she's an embarrassment, but she doesn't care. It's an art I've never quite fully mastered, but I'm pretty close.
So, I'm going to keep doing what I do, and you lot? You can like me or lump me.
Haters Gonna Hate.
* Well, not ALL I want to do, but, you know... ;)
** I'm going to extend the same courtesy to him as he does to me in his thinly veiled character assassination of me (now at two posts and all he has thought worthy to blog about for the past week) and not link to him at all and leave you guys to work out for yourselves who I am talking about.

At the center of the University of South Carolina Upstate campus, the 12-Acre Susan Jacobs Arboretum bridges the established quadrangles of the south and massive expansion of the new north quadrangle, creating the completed outline of the University's 328-acre master plan.
The Susan Jacobs Arboretum is a place of serene natural beauty. It features a 300-seat amphitheatre, lighted walkways, foliage indigenous to the area, and rows of Nuttall Oak trees defining the north quadrangle. A meandering creek lined with stones and boulders completes this tranquil setting.
The University recently added a cell phone tour known as "Guide By Cell" for those who are interested in the details of each particular garden. Learn more about the "Guide By Cell" technology here...
The Susan Jacobs Arboretum will serve as the center for activity for future campus life and student programs. It provides a place for relaxation, enjoyment and reflection, and for cultural, social and entertainment events. The Arboretum establishes a marker for future growth and development of the campus and, as it evolves over time, will provide a tremendous source of pride for students, faculty, staff and alumni.
Within the next five years it is a goal of the University for the Susan Jacobs Arboretum to achieve membership in the American Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta. The mission of AABGA is to serve and strengthen public gardens by supporting their work, value and achievements in horticultural display, education, research and plant conservation. To meet the requirements for membership the Arboretum needs a variety of bedding plants, ornamental plants, azalea gardens, native plant selections and an assortment of trees. The Susan Jacobs Arboretum will be adding thousands of native selections and ornamental plants, as well as over 200 trees, as it strives to reach its goal.

WINNSBORO — Saves and high school athletics usually bring to mind a baseball or softball game. For Richard Winn Academy starting point guard Carson Justice and her coach Jason Haltiwanger, a save or being saved is forever linked to basketball.
Last season during the pregame prayer before the state championship game, Justice gave her heart to Christ and says she was saved. The story could have ventured into the realm of the cliche where the team then went on to win the game as if some heavenly intervention meant that God was on the Eagles' side.
But it did not. Instead, RWA lost by four in the state finals.
Before that state championship game in 2012, Haltiwanger read a devotion about greatness that students could achieve as high school athletes. The greatness he spoke of was not winning a state championship, but it was gaining the knowledge that they were saved by the greatest champion of all time: Christ.
Saving grace
"As they called out the lineup I was sitting on the bench crying," Justice said. "I had heard God's voice speaking to me and realized I wanted (being saved and a stronger relationship with Christ)."
While she played hard and to the best of her ability, at that point she said she was not worried about the game. It was that moment, the shift in perspective, that she credits with helping her become the leader that has her team two wins away from a championship this season, despite the graduation of All-Conference center Alex Maas.
"As I've matured I learned there are more important things in life than winning," she said. "Knowing that my girls know they are worth something in life and beautiful because God created them that way means much more than wanting to always win. After all, in order for a team to win a game, someone has to lose."
According to Justice, basketball is about building character and more about life lessons and growing closer to God than it is about basketball.
Since Richard Winn is a private school, Haltiwanger has the leeway to discuss religion with his players, something he does regularly. Coach Halt, as he is called, quotes Mark 3:25 to his players, telling them how a house divided against itself cannot stand. He also reads a passage from 1 Corinthians, Chapter 12, to them before the pregame prayer, a passage that mentions the body of Christ and how all body members have their role, just as all believers have a role in the church.
"Everyone has a role. If you do your role, you can win championships," said Haltiwanger, who was more excited by a freshman taking her first charge of the season late in a game than he did by winning the region tournament. "If you are discontent with your role, dissention comes in. I ask them all the time to accept their role with humility. It may not be big to the public, but the role is critical to the team."
Haltiwanger said there are no secrets on his team. Justice noted the strong team chemistry that he and she work to nurture among all of the players.
Mother-daughter bond evolving
Justice's mother, Rebekah Coleman, helps out with keeping statistics for the team. She noticed the chemistry is a lot like it was when she was a junior and senior, the last two times Richard Winn won the state championship in '88-'89 and '89-'90. She played point guard and shooting guard on that team, just like Carson does now for RWA. Coleman said she was more of a scorer and passer than a pure shooter but that her 5-foot-10 daughter has the shooting touch for three-pointers that she lacked.
"Carson is so much more developed physically and mentally than I ever was," she said. "Her first word was 'ball' and she has been dribbling a ball since age 3."
She supports her daughter's dreams of playing collegiately and has taken her to basketball camps since Carson was 8 years old. But Coleman's basketball playing days are behind her.
Perhaps the circumstances behind her hanging up her sneakers are one reason her daughter seems to have wisdom beyond her years. In recent years she has undergone five back operations and suffered two strokes. Keeping stats for the team helps give her a sense of purpose as she works to carve out a new normal in life.
Seeing her mother endure that is something Justice said helps her keep life in perspective. According to her coach, the teen's influence helps her mother keep things in perspective, too.
"The change in Carson has impacted her mom and that's been neat to watch," Haltiwanger said.
Other adults who support her include her dad and stepmother, Chuck and Valenica Justice, and her grandfather Jimmy Ray Douglas. Emily Brigman, her sister, is on the team, too. Her little sister Meredyth Justice, plays on the middle school team and Justice knows that her eyes are on her wherever she goes.
The close sisterly bond helps her as she navigates teenage life while living out a pretty public faith life. That can put her in difficult spots, such as being bullied for standing out, but through it all, her coach said she is learning to stand true to her convictions.
Her mother is so appreciative of the influence Haltiwanger and his wife have had on her daughter.
"Coach Halt has been an inspiration and a good role model on and off the court for her and for that I will always be grateful," she said. "Carson now says she was talent to bring others closer to God herself and she remains steadfast in her convictions. This gave her a code of ethics to live by and she loves her school and teammates. She amazes me daily."
Living a life of faith
Justice, who carries a 3.5 GPA, is active in the Richard Winn Fellowship of Christian Athletes. An all-region volleyball player, she also is the student government historian and likely will play softball again next school year. This year she focused more on basketball in hopes of enhancing her chances to play in college.
She is considering Lander, USC Upstate, Coastal Carolina and Francis Marion at this point and has goals of studying nursing.
Justice has become more active in the church since last spring. She attends church youth events at Camp Bonclarken during the school year and each summer she attends a weeklong ministry in Appalachia. She recently attended the Disciple Now program, a big youth event with a band and guest speaker that she has attended the past three years. The program is staffed by Columbia International University students.
The work in Appalachia raises money for less fortunate children. They also do Vacation Bible School and witness in the town which sits in Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee. She has volunteered in Appalachia three summers along with youth from the Chester ARP Church.
If point guards are graded in terms of wins and losses, Justice ranks highly because in four years she has never lost a region game. Haltiwanger's system is challenging with over 30 set plays and 3-5 different presses being employed at a time.
"She's really done well for us since that home game against Mid-Carolina High," Haltiwanger said. She has been on a tear, playing smarter and better with more focus. During that stretch Justice has had a 6:2 assist to turnover ratio.
Having a steadying influence at team captain has helped a young team come together and exceed the expectations many had for them this season. Depth, speed, and teamwork have them on the verge of finishing some unfinished business from a year ago.
At press time the semifinal results were not in for Richard Winn, but if Justice can lead her team to victory in Thursday night's game, they will play at the Sumter Civic Center on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. for the SCISA AA State Championship.

Stormers pack claims first big scalp
2 Apr 2012
JON CARDINELLI writes that the seasoned heavies as well as the young Stormers forwards made a massive statement in Saturday's beating of the Bulls.
The expression on Andries Bekker's face at the final whistle said it all: nothing beats beating the Bulls.
It hasn't happened too many times over the past decade, and only a couple of times in Bekker's career. It's for this reason that you can forgive him for celebrating wildly after the most recent result. It's a big win in isolation, but even more important for a Stormers pack before a testing tour Down Under.
Bekker hasn't enjoyed much success against the Bulls in recent years, as he was previously up against the then incumbent Bok No 5 Victor Matfield. Saturday's game at Newlands saw the Bulls fielding a team without Matfield, who has since retired, and Bekker didn't miss a great opportunity to take control.
It didn't matter that Matfield, now the Bulls lineout consultant, had worked with the Pretoria side in the build-up. It also didn't matter that the Bulls fielded a lineout unit boasting Springboks like Chiliboy Ralepelle and Flip van der Merwe, as well as the impressive yet uncapped (as far as Test rugby is concerned) Juandré Kruger. Bekker and his Stormers pack were up to the lineout challenge, ultimately nullifying one of the Bulls' traditional strengths.
The Stormers countered the Bulls' attempts to maul, showing superior aggression at the point of contact as well as incredible discipline. The Bulls let themselves down in this regard, and were often penalised by referee Craig Joubert for transgressing the laws.
After a great start to the 2012 competition at the lineout, they will view their defeat at this set piece in Cape Town as an important lesson. Just as Bekker and company were schooled by Matfield and the Bulls in previous years, so the Bulls will be better for a beating at the hands of a class act like Bekker.
The Stormers had a terrible third quarter and the final scoreline suggests the Bulls gave as good as they got. But 20-17 wasn't a fair reflection of the Stormers' superior forward effort. It could be said that the half-time score of 14-0 was also a poor return considering the Cape side's dominance up front, and not for the first time this season the finger of blame can be pointed at the backs for a static attack and a largely ineffective kicking game.
Any win against the Bulls is achieved via a superior performance up front, and for this reason, the Stormers deserved to take the spoils in Saturday's combative contest. Not enough is made of the fact that they field three rookies, all under the age of 21, in their starting pack week after week. And yet, the youngsters and experienced heads are combining to produce some of the most dominant Stormers forward displays of the past few years.
Loosehead Steven Kitshoff is enjoying a fantastic first season, and combining well with Tiaan Liebenberg and Brok Harris in the front row. As assistant coach Robbie Fleck suggested a couple of weeks ago, it's been a long time since the Stormers had such a dominant scrum. The youngster's introduction has also inspired other seasoned heads to lift their efforts, and Liebenberg, in an all-round capacity, is starting to get back to his tackle-busting best.
Bekker was always going to take some time to regain form after missing seven months of competitive rugby, and Saturday's game against the Bulls showed why he is the natural successor to Matfield as the Boks' lineout manager. Under Bekker's tutelage, Eben Etzebeth has flourished but has also brought his own edge to the game. Etzebeth's aggressive attitude has been central to the Stormers' tackle fight this season, which is great news for a pack that already boasts abrasive players like Liebenberg and Duane Vermeulen.
The latter player has been in phenomenal form and will be in the Bok mix later this year if he remains fit. Vermeulen's work as a ball-carrier has only been exceeded by his contributions as a kamikaze-style defender. His prowess at the breakdown and ability to turn over possession is often unacknowledged, and while he's no Francois Louw in this regard, he does lend a fetcher-less outfit that little bit extra on the ground.
Rynhardt Elstadt made a solid return from injury against the Bulls, and seemed determined to remind everybody why he was considered the Stormers' answer to Bakkies Botha before Etzebeth was blooded. On the other flank, Siya Kolisi is less rabid in the manner in which he conducts himself, but no less effective. Like Vermeulen, he has made some powerful contributions as both a ball-carrier and the type of defender that smashes opponents back in the tackle.
It's for these reasons that the Stormers haven't missed Schalk Burger. The Stormers captain was injured in the first game of the season, but Kolisi and the pack as a collective have marched on in abrasive fashion, out-muscling their counterparts at the Sharks, Blues and Lions before making a bigger statement against the Bulls.
Because of this coach Allister Coetzee can allow Burger to stay at home while the team tours Australasia. If the Stormers had not gathered such great forward momentum in the past few weeks, perhaps Burger would be asked to join the trip. As it is, Burger will use the extra time to heal fully.
There are weaknesses in the Stormers' game as a whole, but what is encouraging is that the pack has continued to grow with each outing. There are greater challenges to come, with the Highlanders in terrific form in the forwards and the Crusaders stacked with All Black heavies. The Reds have struggled in 2012 but do have a number of Wallabies in their pack, and the Force possess a strong lineout and the best fetcher in the world in David Pocock.
Burger will rejoin the squad when they return from their tour, but in the interim Coetzee will need to manage his team carefully. The youngsters should continue to play and gain experience but at some stage Coetzee will need to look at an alternative for Bekker in that key No 5 role, and also ensure that Vermeulen, a player that gets through a lot of work, is not overexposed as has been the case in the past few seasons.

2 Apr 2012, 13:25 pmOk….to all those Bulls supporters blaming Craig…here is a deal…..
Since you scored two tries and we only one and we had 15/9 penalties…..you can have the win and the 4 log points…….BUT….then we want the 2010 Title since then Craig cost us that final….when we scored 2 tries to your 1 and the penalty count was like one zillion /6….DEAL?????
2 Apr 2012, 13:25 pmWhat a difference a week makes on Keo,last week the Bulls were invincible,this week despite,only scoring one try and being the benificaries of a hopelessly lopsided and biased refreeing team,the Stormers are now crowned Super 15 champions on this site.
Unless Mark Lawrence is on his way to Duneiden,this Stormers team is in for a huge wake up call.That idiot Liebenbergh is in for a serious hiding with his moronic aggression.Should have been sin binned early on,and then the turkey ends up man of the match.
When a true hard man, like Bakkies gives a prick like this, what he has been begging for he is labeled a thug, -
2 Apr 2012, 13:33 pmWatch the replay of that incident. Kruger continued to play the man long after the ball had gone and Tiasn showed his opinion in no uncertain manner.
2 Apr 2012, 13:34 pm@mad eye(mad eye)-103: i just love this!!they are so focussed on belittling the stormers victory that they totally lose sight of the legends of super rugby riding into town on saturday……..oh the shock will be great when the legendary crusaders knock them further into the turf.

2 Apr 2012, 16:02 pm@seamus(seamus)-106: If you are trying to make the point that the Bulls have a much less experienced team than the Stormers and are using players like Chilli and Hougaard, both Springboks as examples, you are fooling no one but yourself.
2 Apr 2012, 16:23 pm@seamus(seamus)-106:
That's just a plain stupid comment.The Bulls have enough experience overall in their team.
v/d Merwe
KirchnerAs a spine, you can't get more experience than that amongst SA teams in Super rugby, I think.
2 Apr 2012, 16:31 pm@nama1(nama1)-108: how are these?
bissie, jannie, beast, alberts, bosman, jpp, odwa, mvovo
brock, tiaan, bekker, vermuelen, grant, jdv, jdj, habana, aplon
2 Apr 2012, 16:56 pmYour redneck heritage is clearly showing through, pretending that two Springboks are now somehow inexperienced, Juandre Kruger has played internationally as well as for the Bulls in previous games, yet now somehow he hasn't got any experience?
One could make a case for Sadie, but it is most definitely not his first season of Superrugby, even though he is pretty young.
Fact remains, a number of the Bulls players has played in a supperrugby winning team, you only lost Matfield, Du Preez and Botha x 2 (I don't count Rossouw as he isn't a regular starter (your logic)) then two flankers through injury…although injury is a crutch all super teams must bear…
The Stormers on the other hand lost Jacque Fourie, CJ van der Linde, Francois Louw, Schalk Burger (Injury), Deon Carstens (Injury), (All Springboks), not to mention the other players who would NOT have started necessarily like Sadie, Whitehead, Van Zyl, Pieter Louw etcetera…
Which is where the issue of depth comes in, something many Bulls pride themselves on, the magnificent structures in place at Camp Loftus, if the structures cannot yield sufficient depth, then I am sorry, I cannot see how that can be used as an excuse…it is pretty lame, and almost entirely your own fault.
2 Apr 2012, 16:59 pm@Transformation(Transformation)-109:
I'd say, it is more or less the same.…which means that Seamus' point about the so-called inexperience of the Pink Bulls is hogwash.
2 Apr 2012, 17:00 pm@Transformation(Transformation)-109:
I think nama forgot W. Kruger, Ndungane, J Vermaak
2 Apr 2012, 17:29 pm@thesaint(thesaint)-112:
Actually I didn't.Just nominated one player from each sub-unit of the team as the leader, ie front row, lock pairing, loose trio, half back pairing, inside backs and back trio.
If you have at least one experience player in every sub-unit to give guidance to your less experienced players and help with decision making, you can't claim inexperience as an excuse when you lose.
But, as you pointed out, some of their "lesser experience" players are also very experienced.
2 Apr 2012, 18:14 pmBulls got handed the Superugby trophy on a platter by Joubert two seasons ago yet they crying about that penalty. How does a biased ref miss two forward passes in one backline movement? Suck on it bi@tches!
Have your say

Comment posted Council Leader, Councillors, CEO, Senior Officers: working relationships by Jam.
This is an excellent article and I agree with the 'newsroom' it is primarily about performance not an opportunity for old scores to be settled.
This may be a new administration but many of the councillors are not new and come with experience.
Yes we need to change the root and branch running of Kilmory and maybe some people will need to go if they cannot understand exactly what their role is…as the article plainly sets out.
In the past Officers have had too much power, the balance needs to be redressed. Aslo in the past the Council has not only been seen by other councils as inept but they have also become a laughing stock.
It is time for Argyll & Bute Council to become a competent and open administration. No more lock outs and secret deals.
I have every faith in this new administration.
Recent comments by Jam
- Argyll and Bute Council Coalition Cup 2013: runners and riders
More like the Hokey Cokey to me….. - Labour MSP Rhoda Grant's response to Struan Lodge decision
It is not the SNP's policy to shut Care Homes just for the sake of it, on the contrary in other places throughout Scotland they have fought to keep them open even build new ones.
It is however the responsibility of any Council to ensure any venture is fiscally viable and if not respond appropriately.
When it comes to dealing with elderly residents things get very emotive, this is not a bad thing but should only serve to make sure every other viable option has been looked at. The present stay of execution shows the determination to do so but in the end hard decisions regarding the budgets have to be made……do you rob Peter to pay Paul?…….I agree with some of the above, this matter in the great scheme of things regarding Independence will hold little sway and the petty political scoring is ridiculous. - Third parties ensure Easdale's Stone Skimming Championships goes ahead
….and has the MSP in question made a comment on this matter?…..silly question really. - Baillie writes to SPT and Clydelink on back up ferry for Gourock-Kilcreggan
As an OAP who lives on the Peninsula perhaps I can give a thought or two as to why the numbers might be down.
After hearing all the stories both in the media and from friends who use the ferry it took me 3months to even pluck up enough courage to go on this vessel, not to mention the fact of it's unreliability.
Health & Safety was my job in Local Government, so it was with much interest that I took my first journey…..I was not impressed.
If one was visually impaired or had limited mobility it is a disaster waiting to happen, maybe that is why so many OAP's have stopped using it. As for mother's with babies in a pushchair…forget it, especially in rough weather….they could never carry a child down the steep steps.
Maybe we were spoiled with the sea bus but the difference in terms of comfort and the importance of feeling safe is like chalk and cheese.
SPT are treating us with no regard, I would almost go as far as suggesting they would quite like to get rid of the route altogether.
If the SNP led council and government let this happen they will loose much support in this area. - Council misuse of public money
It is important because it is taxpayers money…..monies that are needed elsewhere.

Sweden Family Adventure (EWFA)
Most family trips call it a day once the sun goes down. Not this one. Way up in northern Sweden, the fun starts at dusk when nature flips on the Northern Lights for a show that's second to none. This wintertime trip for active families sets you up in a remote wilderness lodge for three days spent ice fishing, snowshoeing and mushing about with the sled dogs under a clear hinterland sky. Later, you'll learn about local Sami culture from an expert and rendezvous with genuine reindeers before bunking down for a night in the original ICEHOTEL®. The Northern Lights are brighter than they've been in a decade right now, and once you've seen them in person, your memories of them will never, ever dim.
Highlights: Dog-sledding through icy wilderness, seeing the Northern Lights in all their glory, spending a night in the renowned ICEHOTEL®
Lapland Active Adventure (EWLA)
Nothing prepares you for the icy wilderness of Sweden's far north. This incredible trip takes you right inside the Arctic Circle, to the snowy wilderness of Lapland. Slide across the ice in complete silence, listening to the sound of your team of dogs pulling your sled and enjoy the frozen beauty of the ICEHOTEL® . Sleeping out in a teepee in the snow and looking out for the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) are unforgettable experiences.
Highlights: Dog-sledding through icy wilderness, seeing the Northern Lights in all their glory, sleeping a night in the renowned ICEHOTEL®

From campus to campus, colleges are completely different from each other. Since this will practically be your child's home for the next four or more years, this will be one of the biggest decisions your child and you will make. So, how do you decide?
The first step is to talk to your child. If you are a college graduate or have experiences you want to share, this is the first big step. Talk to family members, friends, and encourage your child to do the same. But always remember, you and your child ultimately need to form your own views. This is why it is critical to do road trips early. Look at the environment, the students and all the features you feel are important for a successful college life.
There are many things to consider when visiting and picking the college that fits your student. Here are some:
· Type of University: public vs. private; two year vs. four year
· Location of University: City, country, by the beach
· Admissions criteria
· Academic programs and majors
· Student activities
· Campus Safety
· Campus Philosophy
· Cost/Financial Aid Availability
· Athletics
· Housing Options
· Size of Student Body
To broaden your search, meet with your High School Counselor to get information on college catalogues, guidebooks, college fairs, visitations from colleges to the High School and more. Here are some helpful websites to guide you:
· www.cpec.ca.gov/collegeguide/
· http://www.ecampustours.com/
All of the above can give you further insight as you plan your road trips. Good luck and happy travels.

Supreme Court Upholds Affordable Care Act
Virginia has more than a million residents who are uninsured.
The wait for the Supreme Court decision on the Affordable Care Act — what some call "Obamacare" — is over.
On Thursday, the last day of the 2011-2012 Supreme Court session, Chief Justice John Roberts said the individual mandate may be upheld as a tax under a narrow reading of the Constitution.
The decision was 5-4 with Roberts siding with the more liberal members of the court.
"The individual mandate cannot be upheld as an exercise of Congress's power under the Commerce Clause," Roberts wrote. "That Clause authorizes Congress to regulate interstate commerce, not to order individuals to engage in it. In this case, however, it is reasonable to construe what Congress has done as increasing taxes on those who have a certain amount of income, but choose to go without health insurance. Such legislation is within Congress's power to tax."
A circus-like atmosphere outside the court, with media and protestors milling about, awaited the decision to be handed down this morning.
"The Supreme Court says it stands," a commentator on CNN reported Thursday morning.
Do you agree with the Supreme Court decision? Vote in our Patch poll.
The Affordable Care Act became law March 23, 2010. Virginia, along with more than a dozen other states, sued the federal government based on the argument that the "commerce clause" of the U.S. Constitution cannot be used by Congress to mandate that individuals purchase health insurance as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
The Affordable Care Act was designed to:
- Expand access to Medicaid
- Require most individuals to carry health insurance
- Prohibit insurers from denying health insurance coverage based on pre-existing conditions
- Create exchanges so individuals and families not eligible for government or employer-sponsored health insurance plans may purchase coverage at more affordable rates.
For a more detailed summary of the act, see the document (PDF) at right.
Uninsured in Northern Virginia and Nationwide
There are about 30 million people in the United States without health insurance. In Virginia, there are 1,039,300 uninsured, according to figures from statehealthfacts.org. Of those in Virginia, more than 10 percent — 157,300 — are children.
As of April, Fairfax County — one of the largest and wealthiest counties in the country — had 66,947 individuals participating in the Medicaid program, according to county spokesman Jeremy Lasich. According to the U.S. Census, approximately 144,000 residents or about 13.5 percent of the county population is without health insurance, he noted.
In Arlington County, about 13 percent of those ages 18 to 64 are uninsured, according to 2009 data available on CountyHealthRankings.org, which cautions on its site that "more current estimates are likely to be higher." In Alexandria City, the uninsured adult population is about 15 percent (in the same age group).
In Loudoun County, the percent of uninsured adults ages 18 to 64 is about 9 percent, according to the same website, which based its data on the U.S. Census Bureau's Small Area Health Insurance Estimates (SAHIE) program. Prince William County's rate is about 15 percent, with much higher rates in the cities of Manassas and Manassas Park.
Health care reform is "bringing better access to care for many state residents," Jill Hanken, a staff attorney with the Virginia Poverty Law Center, said last year.
Political Implications of the Health Care Ruling
Today's ruling will likely become a political football, pundits say, in the run-up to the presidential election just four months away.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who will face President Obama in the presidential election on Nov. 6, has called for doing away with the law. Romney appeared Wednesday in Sterling, Va., and told supporters, "We already know it's bad policy that's got to go." (See video of Romney's campaign stop in Sterling here.)
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, who is running for governor, is one of several state attorneys general who challenged the health care law. On a statement on his Web site, before the ruling today, Cuccinelli wrote: "I am cautiously optimistic that the Supreme Court will strike down the law and its requirement that every citizen buy government-approved health insurance.
"Congress clearly has the power to regulate commerce, but using that power to force individuals into commerce goes too far. If the federal government crosses that line, it will have unlimited power to order citizens to buy virtually anything in the name of the 'public good.' That is why I have said that Virginia's lawsuit against the federal health care law is about liberty, not health care."
Cuccinelli debated the issue in February at the National Press Club on C-SPAN with Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley. (C-SPAN's website has video of the debate between Cuccinelli and Coakley.)
The Supreme Court's website has audio from arguments in the Supreme Court Affordable Care Act case when it was heard by the court in March.
About 56 percent of Americans say they oppose the law, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released over the weekend.

Cyclists lobby for vulnerable user law with tougher penalties for motorists
A slight Freudian slip by Kevin Hardman, executive director of the Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin, suggested that cycling advocates stormed the castle in Madison on Tuesday.
They didn't.
They did, however, lobby legislators in the Capitol to pass a law that creates tougher penalties for motorists who commit traffic violations that injure or kill vulnerable roadway users, including bicyclists.
Pedestrians, emergency responders, motorcycle riders, in-line skaters and farmers driving farm equipment also would be among those covered by the bill introduced in the State Senate earlier this month.
In some circumstances, a traffic offense that harms or kills a vulnerable user would be elevated to a felony, punishable by $10,000 fines and up to six years in prison. (click here for the full text)
Three states have similar laws in place and the legislation passed the Maryland State Senate in 2011.
The measure in Wisconsin is intended to provide prosecutors with an option beyond the traffic tickets that have been issued in crashes that killed bicyclists in recent years.
Kyle Dieringer, for example, pleaded no contest in January and paid $400 in fines for failing to yield a three-foot safe passing distance in a crash that killed Jeff Littmann and severely injured Lauren Jensen. The local athletes were out on a training ride on Wisconsin Ave. in Nashotah on Oct. 1, 2010.
Citing cases like that, cycling advocates made the same push for a vulnerable user law at the federation's annual Bike Summit in 2011.
"These laws are intended to protect vulnerable roadway users and to appropriately and fairly punish those who harm them through reckless or careless behavior," according to the Bike Fed message.
Getting the bill introduced represents progress, Hardman said, after the lobbying effort on Tuesday, part of the 2012 Bike Summit.
He was hopeful that the proposed law would receive a hearing before the end of the legislative session next month, but expects no action until the next session.
Cyclists also asked legislators to restore the $2.5 million in state transportation funding for bike lanes and other enhancements. The state dollars were pulled from the 2011-'13 biennial budget, leaving only federal funds available for bike and pedestrian projects.
That source of funding is uncertain.
The federal transportation bill introduced in the House eliminates $1.2 billion directed to states for Transportation Enhancements and Safe Routes to Schools. Wisconsin received $9.5 million annually from those two funds.
Rep. Thomas Petri, a Republican from Fond du Lac, bucked his party's leadership and pushed an amendment to restore the enhancement and safe routes dollars during a committee vote last month.
He came up two votes short, but earned a Bike Hero Award and a standing ovation at the close of the summit.
"We're in the midst of a fight," Petri told the crowd, in a ballroom across from the Capitol. "I'm trying to find the highest common denominator, not the lowest.
"We need to do everything we can to build active lifestyles. It's good for the economy, good for health, and it's fun too."
Petri said the House version of the transportation bill has stalled, leaving open the prospect that the bike and pedestrian funds would be restored.
"We're in the midst of a fight," he said. "It's not over. It's just begun."
Based on Hardman's report of successes, the Bike Fed appears ready for that fight.
Revenue for the non-profit organization is projected to reach nearly $1.4 million in 2012, and it now has 10 full-time staffers, a paid lobbyist and ambassadors spread throughout the state. Nearly 400 people showed up for the fourth annual Bike Summit.
For 2012, the organization will expand the Wisconsin Bike Challenge nationally, work to improve its brand and convince more of the 548,000 self-identified bicyclists in the state the Bike Fed.
That would provide more bodies to lobby the "castle" next year.

The state laws would disagree with you. There is nothing unsafe about me riding my bike on a road as long as I stay over to the right and you drive attentively and look ahead.
umgopher1 Feb 22, 2012 12:01 PM
If you want to reduce these types of accidents charging people with a felony and large fines is not the right way to do it. Many cyclists and people walking do not take proper precautions when in the roadway. We need better education by parents and schools. The other day I watched a cyclist go down a one way street the wrong way, I see them running stop signs and driving to far in the roadway for cars to pass. I see people walking in the street with dark clothes that cannot be seen. I have put more miles on a bicycle than most and am close to a situation where a teenager was killed by another while walking down the street. These are civil matters and there should not be changes in the laws this way.
JohnnySeed Feb 22, 2012 12:03 PM
Imagine how happy small-government/republicans/tax-haters would be if we designed cities around the bicycle! No more highway subsidies, local roads would last so much longer, traffic would be better, parking would be easy and close, people would be healthier and more virile! A perfect world!
MKETWEED Feb 22, 2012 12:10 PM
I think people are missing the point of the article. This isn't meant to be another opportunity for people who hate cyclists to vent their frustrations. All these advocates are trying to do is increase the penalties when a driver is found to be at fault in the death of a cyclists, construction worker, pedestrian, etc. I don't think it's unreasonable that someone should go to jail when their inattentiveness results in the death of an innocent human being.
umgopher1 Feb 22, 2012 12:10 PM
Good thing I wasn't referring to the law, just stating my opinion. It's just as bad as granny doing 42 MPH down I-94. Biking down winding highways in the Kettle Moraine at 17 MPH when there are cars coming around the corner or over hills at 45 MPH doesn't seem like a very smart position to put yourself in.
NaturalSelection Feb 22, 2012 12:10 PM
OK guys I'll play your silly game.
Tougher laws for motorists, fine, but then lets have tougher laws for:
Bicyclists who ignore traffic signs and signals.
Bicyclists who are hard to see at night.
Bicyclists who travel on roads not fit for a bicycle.
Bicyclists who ride on sidewalks without regard for pedestrians.JerryJ Feb 22, 2012 12:17 PM
In my experience, some people *do* think like that, load_warrior. (They're called 'sociopaths' and it's not all that rare.) This law should help dissuade them from taking their road rage out on the cyclist.
sewisn Feb 22, 2012 12:22 PM
Can you walk,run,bike,etc,on the highways/freeways/interstates? No! Why? It is to dangerous & these roads are meant for motorized vehichles. Were all these roads in WI created for the purpose of riding your bicycle,running,walking? No they were created for motorized vehicles. There are plenty of trails around this state for these "athletes" to ride, these trails just arent so convenient for them so they risk their lives by taking to our roadways & when accidents happen these "athletes" look for someone to blame. Do they ever accept any responsibility? No, because they are the little guy, they expect everyone with a drivers license to treat them as if they were a child that did not know any better. Sorry, Im not your babysitter,I will do my best to watch out for you but you better make damn well sure you are doing your part. Are you going to blame motorists for the potholes that appear in the road,which you just so happen not to see causing you to wipe out & fall into oncoming traffic & getting hit? Can I see that coming? Seems to me motorists also get pulled over for impeding traffic--what do you think these "athletes" are doing? Seems the rules they want us to follow just do not apply to them...because our system sides with the minority!
rubyred Feb 22, 2012 12:45 PM
JerryJ - for the record, cyclists on the road are subject to the same rules that drivers are. Hence, tougher laws for motorists = tougher laws for cyclists. So if this passes, then next time a cyclist riding dangerously crashes into a car and kills the driver while the cyclist walks away unharmed, he/she will be charged with a felony.
umgopher1 Feb 22, 2012 12:47 PM
I don't think people are missing the point. The point is to put people in Jail or make them a convicted felon for what in many cases is just an accident, doing so would be wrong because in most cases neither one is 100% at fault.
JohnnySeed Feb 22, 2012 1:59 PM
I think the law should change... they do not belong on roads that do not include space for them... if anything, they should build a bike lane... THEN... roads with them can be used... and otherwise, they cannot except for those under 35 mph. Seems reasonable. Why would you want to mix allowing vehicles that travel one speed and vehicles that cannot possibly travel those speeds? It creates unneccessary risks. I think those who take the risks... take the risks, period. If you do not want to die from jumping out of an airplane due to a chute malfuncion, do not jump out of one. If you do not want to be killed by a car while riding a bike, stay off highways. It is pretty basic and, those who point out the laws should be countered with "perhaps the laws should change".

I like riding a bike as recreation on residential streets and trails... I do not ride a bike on highways. Why should that be construed as a right? Now honestly, I am not actually as against bikes on highways as my posts would seem. All I am saying is for those who want to blame drivers for accidents related to hazards on the roadway, perhaps we should remove the hazzards rather than look to further blame or more significantly punish the drivers. It is a fair thing to counter-propose! On many roads a bike creates a hazzard because getting around one requires crossing a center line or coming to a near stop in an area where the speed limit is otherwise highway speed, if not for the hazzard. I know cyclers will not like the term hazzard, but they honestly really do create a hazzard when being on many areas of many roadways even in otherwise perfect weather and sun glare conditions (add weather and sun glare issues and the hazzards massively increase).

I think America needs to get back to being the land of Freedom instead of the land of laws and overcriminalization. We have to quit trying to criminalize every possible mistake or accident that can happen and instead focus on crimes that are real crimes rather than crimes that are accidents or mistakes. There are criminals that rob, steal, hurt, kill, etc... and then there are accidents that are caused by people. They are very different things. Pulling out in front of a bike or not seeing a bicyclist on the road due to conditions of the road is STILL AN ACCIDENT. In the Land of Freedom spirit, I guess let cyclists cycle on a road with faster and larger vehicles... let them cycle on high rise bridges too... its no different than letting motorcyclists ride without helmets or any other risky activities. HOWEVER, when there are accidents related to risks taken... mark those accidents down as accidents and leave it at that. If someone wants to be safer, bike in safer places... if someone wants to bike in areas with risks of traffic or hazzards, fine, but then dont be quick to blame others when accidents happen relative to the higher risks. Sun glare, curves, hills, visibility issues, speed differentials, and roads not wide enough for vehicle and bicycle traffic add to the chance of accidents.
When I bike, I take it as my own responsibility to be out of the way of the vehicles on the road and to very much limit the time I spend on busier roads. I generally have one shot from my house to the closest park to bike to with the kids where I have to be on a road of 35 MPH traffic for about 200 feet. I try my best to time being on that stretch when there are no cars coming and I haul butt to get in and out of that area, if a car does come I keep an eye out and prepare to pull off the side of the road if need be. I limit my own risks and I never bike on the side of a thin two lane 55 mph highway. I can find other routes than that all over the place for biking.JakeTheCat Feb 22, 2012 5:27 PM
