| Huffington Post: Next Pope Odds: Benedict XVI Resignation Brings Bookmaker To Release Frontrunners Posted: 11 Feb 2013 11:06 AM PST Francis Arinze of Nigeria, Peter Turkson of Ghana and Marc Ouellet of Canada were among the cardinals hotly tipped by bookmakers on Monday to take over from Pope Benedict XVI. William Hill bookmakers named 80-year-old Arinze as their favourite to replace the pontiff following Monday's shock announcement of the pontiff's resignation with odds of 2-1, followed by Turkson at 5-2. Coral also tipped Arinze as the likeliest successor with odds of 7-4, followed by Turkson at 2-1 and Ouellet in third place at 5-1. The bookmaker also offered odds of 8-1 on Archbishop Angelo Scola of Italy and 10-1 on Cardinal Oscar Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras. Irish bookmaker Paddy Power named Ouellet as the favourite with odds of 5-2, followed by Arinze at 3-1 and Turkson at 4-1. During the 2005 conclave of the Vatican's College of Cardinals that elected Benedict, Arinze was considered "papabile," or a potential successor to the late John Paul II. "When we opened betting last time around, in 2005, Francis Arinze was our favourite," a William Hill spokesman told AFP. "His odds did drift towards the date of the announcement when Joseph Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI) became the favourite, but he remained in the top three. "Also, when Ratzinger became pope, Arinze took over from him as cardinal bishop of Velletri-Segni (a Catholic diocese close to Rome) -- it could be that he'll follow in his footsteps again." A quarter of the cardinals that can elect a new pope are Italian. The last non-Italian pope before Benedict, who is German, and his Polish predecessor John Paul II was Adrian VI, who died in 1523. Arinze and Turkson, the head of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace who is considered a progressive candidate, are among 18 Africans in the Vatican's College of Cardinals. Ouellet, a respected theologian who heads up the world's bishops and is seen as a "modern conservative", has also been frequently named in Vatican circles as a possible successor to Benedict. At the humorous end of the scale, Coral was offering 2000-1 on disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong becoming pope.  Read More... More on Video |

| Huffington Post: Virginia Obamacare Coverage Affecting State Employees' Hours Posted: 11 Feb 2013 11:10 AM PST As Affordable Care Act reforms continue to take effect, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell's (R) new budget is simultaneously bringing change to the lives of part-time workers. The Virginian-Pilot reports that thousands of state employees have received word that their new maximum work week is 29 hours. The news coincides with a segment of the health care law, which defines full-time workers as individuals putting in 30 hours of work per week. Back in December, Forbes broke down the penalties employers face for failing to provide adequate insurance under the Affordable Care Act. "Large" companies with more than 50 full-time workers are required to pay $2,000 per uninsured person on an annual basis. Failure to provide "affordable" coverage -- designated at 9.5 percent of the employee's family income -- results in a $3,000 annual fee per worker facing that situation. Read More...

| Posted: 11 Feb 2013 11:10 AM PST Kentucky's state Senate Agriculture Committee voted unanimously on Monday to approve legislation that could pave the way for the creation of a legal hemp industry in the state, following testimony from Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who claimed to be wearing a hemp shirt. The proposed bill -- which will now be considered by the full state senate -- would establish a process for Kentucky farmers to begin growing hemp, but only if the federal government first passes a measure to remove the crop from a list of illegal drugs. Hemp is currently listed alongside its more potent cousin, marijuana, as a Schedule I controlled substance. Other Schedule I drugs include heroin and LSD. During testimony recorded by the Louisville Courier-Journal on Monday, Paul claimed to be wearing a "hemp shirt" that he had been forced to buy in Canada due to an ongoing prohibition on the plant. He was one of several lawmakers to testify. Read More... More on Kentucky |
