March 12, 2013: This photo shows the air traffic control tower at
Chicago's Midway International Airport.APWASHINGTON Transportation Secretary
Ray LaHood has assured lawmakers the Obama administration will prevent the
closure of 149 small airport towers as well as end furloughs of
air traffic controllers nationwide as a result of legislation passed by
Congress, according to officials involved in negotiations on the bill.The
disclosure came as senators sought signatures on a letter to LaHood saying
that that their support of the legislation "was based on the understanding
that the contract towers would be fully funded." In all, 149 towers
are ticketed for possible closure beginning June 15 as the FAA carries
out its share of the $85 billion in across-the-board budget cuts that
took effect in March at numerous federal agencies.The letter said the towers,
which are staffed by employees under contract to the FAA, are a
"vital public safety and economic development asset for dozens of communities
- many of them rural - in every corner of the country."
It was circulated by Sens. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., and Richard Blumenthal,
D-Conn.The developments coincided with congressional passage during the
day of a follow-up bill that fixed a stenographic error in legislation
that cleared late last week. It was designed to give LaHood flexibility
to shift up to $253 million among various accounts to "prevent reduced
operations and staffing of the FAA," b

continues to build in parts of Libya and North Africa. Those working
the region in the interest of U.S. security say the ball is
being dropped by top leaders at the White House, Pentagon and State
Department."Benghazi, the second-highest population of foreign fighters,
and the war in Iraq came from Benghazi, second to Saudi Arabia,
so we are talking about a historic location and region that has
fed foreign fighters to kill Americans, and kill other coalition forces,"
one source said."The analysts, the intelligence experts all say the same
thing, that if we just ignore the situation as it presents itself,
eventually it will be another invasion will have to take place for
us to eventually turn the tide."He says the region also remains a
weapons hub after the overthrow of former leader Muammar Qaddafi in 2011,
which saw massive stockpiles of weapons in Libya move freely across the
Mediterranean and in many cases into Syria. While the U.S. has claimed
a more active role to find and remove an estimated 20,000 shoulder-launched
missiles called MANPADS, some Americans working the area say they aren't
allowed to take or even destroy the missiles because they have not
been given the authority from thei
