- First Phase of Nafta Superhighway Set to Begin As Mexican Truckers Get the 'Go-Ahead' to Start Transporting Cargo Shipments Into U.S.
The judicial decision reached by the Ninth Circuit Court of San Francisco appears to pave the way for a long held plan by the Bush Administration - a plan that has been largely unfolding under the radar screen - to build a "NAFTA Superhighway," also referred to as the trans-Texas corridor, that upon completion would be the width of four football fields, encompassing 10 lanes, and extend via Interstate 35 from the Mexican border at Laredo, Tex. all the way up to the Canadian border just north of Duluth, Minn.

- College Teacher Who Gave Student Anti-Gay Pamphlets Not Protected by 1st Amendment
A cosmetology instructor who lost her job after she gave a homosexual student anti-gay religious pamphlets isn't protected under the First Amendment and can't sue under Sect. 1983, the 7th Circuit has ruled. The court cited a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision, which held that public employees are not protected by the First Amendment when they speak out in the course of their regular job duties.
