Senate passes black farmers settlement


By the CNN Wire Staff

Washington (CNN) -- The U.S. Senate approved a $1.15 billion measure Friday to fund a settlement initially reached between the Agriculture Department and minority farmers more than a decade ago.

The 1997 Pigford v. Glickman case against the U.S. Agriculture Department was settled out of court 11 years ago. Under a federal judge's terms dating to 1999, qualified farmers could receive $50,000 each to settle claims of racial bias.
"This is much long overdue justice for black farmers," said John Boyd, founder and president of the National Black Farmers Association.

"I am pleased these long-suffering Americans can now receive the closure that they deserve," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada. "The agreement that we reached shows what can happen when Democrats and Republicans come together to do the right thing."

The measure was approved by unanimous consent.

The Senate also cleared -- in the same piece of legislation -- $3.4 billion to fund a separate settlement reached with the Department of Interior for mishandling of a trust fund managed for Native Americans.

In July, the House approved a war supplemental bill that included money to pay for the settlements. At the time, however, the Senate failed to approve the measure.

Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Oklahoma, dropped an objection to the package this week after Senate leaders agreed not to finance it through additional deficit spending.

Prominent members of both parties have voiced support for paying out the settlements.

The measure will now have to be approved by the lame duck House before moving to President Barack Obama's desk to be signed into law.

8PM - 12AM

Someone is capturing artist and forcing them to participate in WWAF Art Battles. That someone is Exacto.

Who is Exacto?

Exacto aka Edward Soliloquoi was a struggling painter living in Atlanta, GA pursuing a career in the arts. After a couple of really bad critiques and a general lack of enthusiam in his own art, he abandoned his creative endeavors and became a salesman for Scamway Global. After some time at Scamway, he discovers that he may be dying from a rare recently discovered ailment called Odivi Coudius or Malignant Coodies. He was given this diagnosis from his doctor, who has known ever since being his family physician that Edward was a hypocondriac. He gave the Malignant Coodies diagnosis but had no idea it would push him over the edge. Edward realized that he wasted his life and didn't want anyone to suffer the same consequences. He became Exacto and vowed to not let another artist suffer the same fate. Now, bent on helping creative people's urge to continue their artistic careers, Exacto creates scenarios where artist must battle each other in the WWAF with an event he calls The Composition of Chaos so they realize that their creative lives through competition.
