Details of the plan are sketchy, but Ivey says the Governor favors the approach taken by California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger - a proposed 90-day freeze that could conceivably give struggling homeowners the ability to renegotiate their loans to more favorable terms. However, the California plan, as envisioned by Schwarzenegger, would require banks to put in place a 90-day moratorium, while Crist is said to angling for voluntary participation by banks (California's legislature has yet to approve Governor Schwarzenegger's plan.)

There develops a need to focus on the social element without the social responsibility so as to draw in the greatest number of students.

For example, when Camp Daisy moved under the umbrella of the Kansas City, Mo., council, officers took a cold look at the rustic horse barn. The council already has a state-of-the-art Scout Equestrian center two hours away, which made Daisy's horse program an easy target. (The Scouts are still trying to figure out just what to do with Daisy's 23 horses...
