Under the authority of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA), we, NMFS, issue this proposed rule to remove the eastern distinct population segment (DPS) of Steller sea lions from the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. After receiving two petitions to delist this DPS, we completed a comprehensive review of the status of the eastern DPS of Steller Sea Lions. Based on the information presented in the draft Status Review, the factors for delisting in section 4 (a)(1) of the ESA, the objective recovery criteria in the 2008 Recovery Plan, and the continuing efforts to protect the species, we have determined, subject to further consideration following public comment, that this DPS has recovered and no longer meets the definition of a threatened species under the ESA: it...
SOUTH BEND, Ind. - President Barack Obama's health care overhaul should be changed so that religious school's such as the University of Notre Dame aren't required to go against their beliefs and provide birth control to students and employees, the school president says. The Rev. John Jenkins wrote a letter Wednesday to Kathleen Sebelius asking the Obama administration to broaden the definition of "religious employer" currently under consideration. He said the change in definition of religious employer is far narrower than current law and would require Notre Dame and other Roman Catholic universities to offer prescription contraceptives and sterilization services to students and employees through health care plans.
This paper estimates a definition of foreign direct investment, its forms, components, and determinants of foreign direct investment in some Arab economies. Then this paper will review the experiences of Egypt, Jordan, and Yemen in the area of attracting investment, and the volume of FDI inflows in the countries. The study concludes that the economic factors, political, legislative, and administrative environment influence the process of attracting foreign direct and indirect investments in the countries under consideration, while infrastructure is the factor affecting attraction of investments.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) proposes to revise the designated critical habitat for the northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). Consistent with the best scientific data available, the standards of the Act, our regulations, and agency practice, we have initially identified, for public comment, approximately 13,962,449 acres (ac) (5,649,660 hectares (ha)) in 11 units and 63 subunits in California, Oregon, and Washington that meet the definition of critical habitat. In addition, however, the Act provides the Secretary with the discretion to exclude certain areas from the final designation after taking into consideration economic impacts, impacts on national security, and any other relevant impacts of spec...
Consideration of a Senate bill that creates both a definition and punishment for the new crime of "gang loitering" incited extensive debate Thursday on the House floor as members raised issues of constitutionality and racial profiling. The bill, SB16, proposes a class B misdemeanor charge for known gang members "failing to disperse" at the order of a law enforcement officer from a designated, "no gang member" area, or returning to that area within eight hours of being asked to disperse.
How does one define the difference between a right and a need? If weso narrowly define our rights to only those in our founding documents, we stifle our own growth as a society. I think that it is fair to say that public education is important and that the vast majority of Americans would agree. However, it is not in theConstitution. We have a vast interstate highway system that was a tremendous engineering achievement when President Eisenhower established it over 50 years ago. Certainly great consideration will have to be made, under the narrow definition of a right, as to whether this should be upgraded or even maintained. We may need an interstate highway system to connect us all as a nation and to provide for interstate commerce, but this system was not put forth as a right in the C...

In October 2006, the GASB released a much anticipated invitation to comment (ITC) document on Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. The GASB is considering the possibility of "tightening" the definition of several of the governmental fund types to promote greater comparability in practice. The current definitions of the capital projects and debt service fund types do not address the type of limitation on resource use necessary to justify the use of those fund types. The ITC suggests two possibilities: 1. Limit the use of those fund types to resources whose use is either restricted or legally limited. 2. Allow those funds to be used, not only for resources whose use is either restricted or legally limited, but also for any resources publicly intended by the gover...
