Students experience a taste in real world budgeting
Students at Alcorn Central High School learned about budgeting and personal finance through a real world budgeting simulation led by Mary Linda Moore from the Mississippi State University Extension Service.
“Act your wage!” Students of ACHS had the opportunity to attempt just that on April 1. Mary Linda Moore, family resource management specialist from the MSU Extension Service, presented the Real World budgeting simulation to the students of Mrs. Bridges, Mrs. Burgess, Mr. Derrick, Mrs. Lambert and Mrs. Weaver. The participants were given a hypothetical family situation with a monthly income and were then required to make spending decisions related to housing, transportation, groceries, clothing, medical care, entertainment, savings and other expenses. If an individual ran out of money, he/ she would have to choose less expensive options or get a second job. Integrating financial literacy across the curriculum is essential when considering these statistics from Jumpstart Coalition for Financial Literacy: • Young people usually determine
their attitudes about handling money by the time they finish 5th grade. • People in the 18-24 age bracket spend over 30 percent of their monthly income on debt repayment. • The fastest growing group declaring bankruptcy is young adults, ages 20-24. • Almost 10 percent of college students drop out of school because of debt and/or financial pressures. When asked what they had learned from this activity, students offered the following quotes: “It’s not what you earn; it’s what you spend,” said Makayla. “A budget would tell my money where to go instead of where it went,” added Brooklyn. A student who chose to remain anonymous said, “I found out what it’s like to be my parents.” This simulation helped the young adults understand how personal behaviors and decisions affect a person’s finances and quality of life.
Supreme Court plans to weigh challenge to ban on campaign lies BY HOPE YEN & SAM HANANEL Associated Press
WASHINGTON — As political campaigns begin to heat up, the Supreme Court is deciding whether false accusations and mudslinging made during an election can be punished as a crime. Addressing an issue of negative campaigning that now may be a fact of life in American politics, justices will consider a challenge to an Ohio law that bars false statements about political candidates. The case being heard next week has attracted national attention, with least 15 other states having similar laws. Groups across the political spectrum are criticizing the law as a restriction on the First Amendment right to free speech. Even Ohio’s attorney general, Republican Mike DeWine, says he has serious concerns about the law. His office filed two briefs in the case, one from staff lawyers obligated to defend the state and another expressing DeWine’s personal view that the law “may chill constitutionally protected political speech.” “The thing we see time and time again in political campaigns is that candidates use the law to game the system by filing a complaint,” DeWine said in an interview with The
Associated Press. In an attempt at humor, satirist P.J. O’Rourke and the libertarian Cato Institute filed a widely circulated brief ridiculing the law and defending political smear tactics as a cornerstone of American democracy. O’Rourke’s brief celebrates a history of dubious campaign remarks including President Richard Nixon’s “I am not a crook,” President George H.W. Bush’s “Read my lips: no new taxes!” and President Barack Obama’s “If you like your health care plan, you can keep it.” The Ohio law makes it illegal to knowingly or recklessly make false statements about a candidate during an election. The high court is not expected to rule directly on the constitutional issue, instead focusing on the narrower question of whether the law can be challenged before it is actually enforced. The case began during the 2010 election, when the Susan B. Anthony List, an anti-abortion group, planned to launch a billboard campaign accusing then-Democratic Rep. Steven Driehaus of supporting taxpayerfunded abortion because he backed President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul. Driehaus urged the Ohio Elections Commis-

the law, creating a chilling effect on speech that gives the groups a right to challenge the law without waiting for a ruling from the election commission. This election season, the anti-abortion group says it’s moving ahead with plans to purchase billboards in opposition to Democratic U.S. senators in Arkansas, Louisiana and North Carolina; those states have similar laws banning false campaign speech. But the Susan B. Anthony List is declining to run billboard ads in Ohio until the case is resolved. “The risks quite frankly are too high,” said the group’s president, Marjorie Dannenfelser. The Obama administration backs that argument,
sion to block the ads, arguing that the proposed billboard was false under Ohio law. Given the threat of legal action, the billboard owner declined to run the ad. Driehaus eventually lost his re-election bid and withdrew his complaint before it could be fully heard. The Susan B. Anthony List then challenged the state law as unconstitutional, but a federal judge ruled against the group, saying it hadn’t suffered any harm in the case and thus didn’t have standing to sue. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati agreed. The Susan B. Anthony List argues that it continues to face the threat of prosecution under

even though White House officials have steadfastly denied the proposition that the health care law allows abortions funded by taxpayer dollars. The administration says a “credible threat of prosecution” will chill the Susan B. Anthony List from engaging in “the very type of speech to which the First Amendment has its fullest and most urgent application.” Driehaus said the work of the Ohio elections commission is needed “to call people into account when spreading malicious lies.” “Not every candidate has millions of dollars to
spend on TV ads, and it’s difficult to get the truth out, especially when constituents are bombarded with messages,” Driehaus said from Swaziland, where he is a Peace Corps director. Lawyers for the state of Ohio assert there is no “credible threat of prosecution” in the case because it never went beyond the very preliminary stages of review before it was dismissed. The fact that the Susan B. Anthony List might use the same language again is too vague to give the group standing to challenge the law, the state argues.
The Biblical Measure of Obedience
By Mike Swims As a parent of a two year old toddler who is coming into a personality of his own, I am learning that there is a difference between obedience and agreeability. I’ve learned the hard way that my son’s obedience isn’t measured by the number of commands he obeys willingly. Instead I see this as the measure of his agreeability. Rather, his daily obedience is measured by the decisions he makes when what he wants differs from what his mother or I want him to do. Agreeability is when he does what we ask immediately without a fuss, yet obedience is when he does what we ask though he may not like—or understand—why we ask it of him. This is also how God measures obedience in us. I think that one of the reasons God insists on baptism by immersion (Acts 2:38) is because it accurately represents His love and forgiveness toward us--It’s overwhelming! Sprinkling won’t do because He doesn’t sprinkle a little bit of forgiveness on us—It’s a deluge of forgiveness (Acts 22:16). And ignoring baptism would be like ignoring God’s love. We are baptized by immersion because it’s at the very moment the water envelops us that God’s love and forgiveness overwhelms us (1 Peter 3:21). “Or do you not know that as many of us as were _____ into Christ ___________ were _______________ into His _______________? Therefore we were ____________ with Him through __________________ into ____________, that just as Christ was _______________ from the dead by the _______________ of the Father, even so _____________ also should ______________ in ____________of _____________.”-Romans 6:3-4
