Judge hears suit on Arizona's ban on immigrant driver's licenses

By Brad Poole and Tim Gaynor

PHOENIX (Reuters) - Lawyers asked a federal judge on Friday to prevent Arizona from denying driver's licenses to young illegal immigrants granted temporary legal status by the government in the Southwestern state's latest court clash over the Obama administration's immigration policies.

Civil rights groups filed a lawsuit in District Court in Phoenix in November against Arizona Governor Jan Brewer and two state transport department officials on behalf of five immigrants from Mexico who qualify for deferred deportation status under President Barack Obama's program.

The suit challenges the legality of an executive order issued by Brewer in August that denied the young migrants licenses, arguing that the government's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program did not give them lawful status or entitle them to public benefits.

On Friday, Judge David Campbell heard brief arguments in which the plaintiffs sought an injunction ordering Arizona to issue the licenses pending the court's ruling. The state asked for the case to be dismissed.

At issue is whether the plaintiffs' deferred deportation status constitutes federal "authorization" to be in the United States, a requirement under Arizona law for immigrants to obtain drivers licenses.

"Every non-citizen with a work permit is considered to be authorized, with one exception - everyone but DACA," Jennifer Chang Newell, an American Civil Liberties Union attorney representing the plaintiffs, told the court.

Newell argued that Brewer's policy amounts to an attempt by the state of Arizona to determine immigration status, a power reserved only for the federal government.

The court battle is the latest for Brewer, a Republican who has become a major antagonist of Obama's Democratic administration and its immigration policies.

About 40 states and the District of Columbia have confirmed they are granting driver's licenses or plan to do so for undocumented youths who received a short-term reprieve from Obama under the program in June.

While Republicans in some U.S. states have opposed drivers licenses for illegal immigrants, only Arizona and Nebraska have said outright that young immigrants are not eligible.

'NO LAWFUL OR AUTHORIZED STATUS'

Under Obama's program, immigrants who came to the United States as children and meet certain other criteria can apply for a work permit for a renewable period of two years. They also can obtain Social Security numbers.

An estimated 1.7 million youths are potentially eligible for the program, of whom about 80,000 live in Arizona. As of mid-February, about 200,000 applicants nationwide been granted deferred action, according to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

They are considered to be lawfully present in the United States during that period, although they do not have full legal status. Brewer maintains that the president's policy did not "confer upon them any lawful or authorized status and does not entitle them to any additional public benefits."

Attorney Doug Northrop, representing the state, told the court there is no federal definition of "authorized" presence, and that the plaintiffs do not have "lawful" status.

Arizona, he argued, is not determining migrants' status, but is simply ruling that they cannot have drivers licenses. The state "didn't create their own status. They just said (they) don't meet it," he told the judge.

Campbell said he would rule on the issue in the coming weeks.

In 2010, Brewer signed into law a controversial bill cracking down on illegal immigrants and setting up the clash with the Obama administration. The centerpiece of the Arizona law, which requires police to check the immigration status of every person they stop if they suspect they are in the country illegally, was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in June.

Obama is pushing Congress to pass a bill overhauling the U.S. immigration system, granting millions of illegal immigrants a path to citizenship, as well as tightening security on the border with Mexico.

Democrats and Republicans in both the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives are close to completing work on a draft bill.

Bosch to abandon solar energy business

BERLIN (AP) ? German engineering company Bosch said Friday that it is abandoning its solar energy business, because there is no way to make it economically viable amid overcapacity and huge price pressure in the industry.

The solar power industry has been hit by falling subsidies, weaker sales and increasingly stiff price competition, especially by Chinese manufacturers. Robert Bosch GmbH's move came after German industrial conglomerate Siemens announced last October that it would give up its loss-making solar business.

Bosch said that it will stop making products such as solar cells, wafers and modules at the beginning of next year. It will sell a plant in Venissieux, France, and is abandoning a plan to build a new plant in Malaysia.

The solar energy division, which employs about 3,000 people, lost around 1 billion euros ($1.3 billion) last year. The company said that, despite efforts to reduce manufacturing costs, it was unable to offset a drop in prices of as much as 40 percent.

"We have considered the latest technological advances, cost-reduction potential and strategic alignment, and there have also been talks with potential partners," Bosch CEO Volkmar Denner said. "However, none of these possibilities resulted in a solution for the solar energy division that would be economically viable over the long term."

The company said that "as far as possible, individual units are to be sold quickly."

Movie review - The Salt Lake Tribune

Teen girl Lore (Saskia Rosendahl, center) guides her siblings (Nele Trebs, Mika Seidel, Andr? Frid, from left) across wartorn Germany, with the help of a Jewish survivior, Thomas (Kai Malina, background), in the drama "Lore."

Movie review: Teen confronts Nazi lies in tough-minded ?Lore?

First Published Mar 21 2013 02:38 pm ? Last Updated Mar 21 2013 02:56 pm

Australian director Cate Shortland?s absorbing German drama "Lore" probes the waning days of World War II from a seldom-seen angle: the families of Nazis who believed Hitler?s lies.

Teenage Lore (Saskia Rosendahl) is the oldest of five siblings who must go it alone across Germany when their Nazi officer father (Hans-Jochen Wagner) disappears and their mother (Ursina Lardi) faces arrest. Lore must beg for food on the road as she learns about Hitler?s death, the Allies? division of Germany ? and the reports of concentration camps where Jews were murdered systematically. As she tries to reconcile these truths with what her parents taught her, she discovers that her siblings? hope for survival is a stranger, Thomas (Kai Malina), who carries a yellow Star of David with his papers.

?

HHH

?Lore?

Opens Friday, March 22, at the Broadway Centre Cinemas; not rated, but probably R for sexuality, war violence and language; in German with subtitles; 109 minutes.

Shortland (who directed the coming-of-age drama "Somersault") and co-writer Robin Mukherjee adapted a story from Rachel Seiffert?s novel The Dark Room. They weave an emotionally complex tale of a teen girl?s beliefs crashing into reality. Rosendahl?s performance is raw and compelling, as Lore fights for her siblings? survival and grows up in a hurry.

American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons

CHICAGO In a new study presented today at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), researchers reviewed existing literature on smoking and the healing of fractures involving long bones (bones that are longer than they are wide).

The analysis of data from 20 studies found an overall 2.3 times higher risk of nonunion (bones that do not heal properly) in smokers. Similarly, for all fractures, the average time to fracture healing was longer for smokers (32 weeks) than nonsmokers (25.1 weeks).

The review illustrates the effects of smoking on acute fractures, primarily that smoking increases the risk of the fracture not fully healing (nonunion) and infection. Smoking presents significant risks to the fracture patient, according to the study authors, which need to be discussed with patients at the time of injury and when considering surgery.
