Obama Administration Says Non-Profit Status ‘Going to Be an Issue’ for Religious Schools ............................................................................................................................. 4/28/2015, Daily Signal ^ One of the more startling portions of oral arguments today at the Supreme Court was the willingness of the Obama administration’s Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, to admit that religious schools that affirm marriage as the union of a man and a woman may lose their non-profit tax-exempt status if marriage is redefined. Justice Samuel Alito asked Verrilli whether a religious school that believed marriage was the union of husband and wife would lose their non-profit tax status. The solicitor general answered: “It’s certainly going to be an issue. I don’t deny that. I don’t deny that, Justice Alito.

'Inappropriate comment' derails Air Force general's career .......................................................... Stars and Stripes ^ \| 5/1/15 \| Svan A comment deemed ethnically offensive has ended the 34-year career of an Air Force major general, a decorated combat pilot who oversaw about 32,000 personnel. Air Force officials have not disclosed the specific words that led to the resignation of Maj. Gen. Michael Keltz, commander of 19th Air Force at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, Texas. The comment was made at a public, nonjudicial punishment proceeding, at which a company-grade officer was appealing an Article 15 punishment before Keltz, the convening authority. The hearing was held April 9 in San Antonio. Article 15 hearings are typically held for minor infractions and can result in certain limited punishments, such as pay forfeiture or extra duty. A person can appeal if he or she feels the punishment is unduly harsh. Maj. Toni Whaley, a spokeswoman for Air Education and Training Command, confirmed Friday that the comment was an offensive ethnic stereotype in reference to the officer’s alcohol intake, though it was not directed at the individual. She said the Air Force won’t release Keltz’s comment, which resulted in several complaints to the staff judge advocate. (Excerpt) Read more at stripes.com ...
