Obama 

warns of 

risks over 

budget cut 

uncertainty 

JULIE PACE, 

AP White House 

Correspondent 

WASHINGTON (AP) — President 

Barack Obama on 

Monday said looming automatic 

spending cuts are already 

affecting the 

economy, while a top administration 

official warned 

that the nation’s borders 

would be less secure if billions 

of dollars are yanked 

from the budget Friday. 

“The uncertainty is already 

having an effect,” 

Obama said. “Companies 

are preparing layoff notices. 

Families are preparing 

to cut back on 

expenses. The longer these 

cuts are in place, the bigger 

the impact will become.” 

Despite the urgent 

rhetoric, there was no indication 

the White House and 

congressional Republicans 

were actively negotiating a 

deal to avoid the so-called 

sequester ahead of the end 

of the week deadline. The 

last known conversation 

between Obama and GOP 

leaders was last week and 

there have been no in-person 

meetings between the 

parties this year. 

With Congress back 

from a weeklong recess, 

House Speaker John 

Boehner showed little willingness 

to move off his 

long-held position that the 

sequester be offset through 

targeted spending cuts, not 

the package of cuts and tax 

increases Obama supports. 

“Mr. President, you got 

your tax increase,” Boehner 

said, referring to the tax 

rate increases that took effect 

on Jan. 1. “It’s time to 

cut spending here in Washington.”

It’s that time of year for car shows and craft shows. Pictured above is what is known as a ‘Rat Rod’, 

typically an old vehicle put together by whatever means available. 

Register to win one that will be given away at the Swamp Stomp event to be held Saturday in Galliano. 

Car, craft shows highlight 

upcoming spring events 

Finding yourself just a little bored these days 

without football or Mardi Gras? There’s plenty to 

do and see just around the corner. 

Springtime is a typical time of year for outdoor 

events, things like car shows, craft shows, 

cook-offs, and the like. And this spring is no different. 

One such event to watch out and plan to attend 

is the Swamp Stomp, an annual event benefiting 

the Make-A-Wish foundation. 

The Swamp Stomp, set for Saturday, March 

2, is now in its fourth year and will include a custom 

car show, drag strip races, a doughnut pit, 

live bands and auction, Cajun cooking, vendors, 

and a chance to win a Rat Rod. 

The event is held at the Bayou Centroplex, 

along Hwy. 308 in Galliano. Gates will open at 8 

a.m. 

Raffle tickets are now being sold with the winner 

receiving a 1930 Ford Sedan Rat Rod built by 

the Boneyard Kreepers. Tickets are $100 each 

with only 200 being sold. 

To purchase tickets, or for more information 

on this event, call 637-2414, 637-4294 or 637- 

6320. 

Another event on the near horizon is the annual 

car and craft show sponsored by the VFW 

Post 8538 and Ladies Auxiliary of Larose. 

Car owners and crafters alike are invited and 

encouraged to register for this event to be held 

Saturday, March 9 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the 

VFW Hall located at the end of W. 25th St. in 

Larose (behind LCO School).

CFF, Lion’s Club to benefit from first local Big 

Bayou Music Festival 

In the spirit of worthy 

causes, another local “festival” 

has been born. It will be called 

the “Big Bayou Music Festival” 

and will be held this weekend, 

March 1-3, in Houma at the 

Evergreen Cajun Center. 

Put together by Reed and 

Denise Callais, Carl Cortez 

(Houma) and Amy Tantillo 

(Hammond), the proceeds of the 

three day event will go to the 

Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. 

Some of the proceeds will also 

go to the Lion’s Club. 

“Every year a Swamp Pop 

By Buster Avera 

Contributing Writer 

festival is held at the Lamar- 

Dixon complex in Gonzales for 

Cystic Fibrosis. We’ve been part 

of that event, but we wanted to 

do something nearer to home,” 

said Reed Callais. 

He is hoping that a festival 

featuring swamp pop, country, 

and some rock and roll music 

and dancing, along with many 

other events will bring together 

people from the bayou area who 

want to donate to a worthy 

cause. The indoor facility was 

chosen to protect everyone from 

weather changes and feature a 

cozy atmosphere. 

“This is the first festival of 

the season in the 

Lafourche/Terrebonne area, 

and we are hoping to draw from 

6-10,000 people during the 

three days,” he said.

Geaux Pass 

toll tags 

Monday, February 

25, the 

Louisiana Department 

of Transportation 

and 

D e v e l o p m e n t 

(DOTD) started giving 

away 100 

GeauxPass toll 

tags per day (or 

while supplies last) 

to drivers opening 

a new account. The 

promotion, sponsored 

by the LA1 

Coalition, is aimed at expediting drivers 

traveling experience at the LA 1 

toll and only available at the Golden 

Meadow Customer Service Center. 

DOTD offers tips on best 

way to use LA-1 in-lane 

cash and charge machine 

Leeville, La. – The Louisiana Department 

of Transportation and Development 

(DOTD) wants to remind 

travelers and regular commuters at the 

LA 1 toll road of the best way to expedite 

travel through the gantry. 

“We must continue to communicate 

with our customers to give them 

confidence that they are using the machine 

properly,” said Rhett Desselle, 

DOTD Assistant Secretary of Operations. 

“We monitor the LA 1 toll daily, 

so we are on top of any challenges.” 

The most efficient way to expedite 

the toll process is for motorists, especially 

regular commuters, to open a 

GeauxPass Toll Tag account. Drivers 

can avoid lines or delays in the dedicated 

left lane for toll tag users.

Letters and Opinions 

Retirees Beware! 

Bobby Jindal’s latest attack 

on retirees is to do 

away with State Income Tax 

and add to State Sales 

Taxes. Be aware that the 

State Income Tax does not 

tax Social Security income. 

It also does not tax state, 

municipal, or parish employees’ 

retirement income, 

or retired teachers income, 

as these people do not receive 

Social Security income. 

Higher sales taxes 

would leave these people 

with even less money to 

spend on necessities. Municipalities, 

parishes and 

school systems have depended 

on sales taxes to 

support their services to the 

citizens of this state. They 

will be greatly hurt by this 

increase in state sales tax 

collections because citizens 

will not likely vote for more 

sales taxes or for renewal of 

current taxes. 

Again Jindal proposes 

taking care of the wealthy at 

the expense of the majority 

meeting. Members are 

asked to invited a guest.

Budget From 1-A 

The $85 billion budgetutting 

mechanism could 

ffect everything from comercial 

flights to classooms 

to meat inspections. 

omestic and defense 

pending alike would be 

rimmed, leading to furoughs 

for hundreds of 

housands of government 

orkers and contractors. 

Also Monday, Interior 

ecretary Ken Salazar said 

isiting hours would be cut 

t all 398 national parks, 

ust as they prepare for an 

nflux of spring and sumer 

visitors. 

Many of the nation’s 

overnors, who are gathred 

in Washington for 

heir annual meeting, 

oiced frustration over the 

mpending cuts, saying 

ashington’s inability to 

strike a deal had created 

widespread uncertainty in 

the economy and hampered 

economic recovery in their 

states. 

“The president needs to 

show leadership,” said 

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, 

a Republican considered 

a potential 2016 

presidential contender, following 

a meeting with 

Obama. “The reality is it 

can be done. This administration 

has an insatiable 

appetite for new revenue.” 

South Carolina Gov. 

Nikki Haley, a favorite of 

her party’s conservative 

wing, pointed her anger at 

both Democrats and Republicans. 

“No one should be playing 

golf. No one should be 

taking vacations,” Haley 

said, taking a shot at 

Obama’s recent golf outing 

and Congress’ latest recess. 

“What they need to do is do 

what these governors do 

every day. We stay until we 

get it done.” 

Democratic Gov. Dannel 

Malloy of Connecticut 

concurred. “They need to 

get out of that box that sits 

under the dome and understand 

that this has real implications 

in people’s lives,” 

he said. “Work with the 

president, find a way to get 

it done — or if you want, 

just turn it over to us governors, 

and we’ll negotiate.” 

The governors, emerging 

from a closed-door 

meeting with Obama Monday, 

said the president had 

assured them the administration 

is pursuing solutions, 

but offered no 

assurances that officials 

would find a way ahead out 

ahead of the deadline.

Events From 1-A 

Winners will be chosen 

from all classes of cars. Preregistration 

fee is $25. 

Sponsors for the event are 

also being accepted at this 

time. 

A hot Cajun-style plate 

lunch, snacks and drinks 

will be available for purchase. 

A parade of prizes 

with proceeds going to 

local, district and national 

Veterans programs will also 

be held.

and plan to take the family 

to these events that benefit 

two worthwhile organizations. 

Festival From 1-A 

Daily admission for the 

festival will be $10 on Friday 

and Sunday, and $15 on 

Saturday. 

Unlike other local 

events such as the French 

Food Festival in Larose and 

the Cut Off Youth Center 

Fair, which have 25-35 people 

involved in organizing 

the weekend, Callais says 

“Big Bayou” will be overseen 

by only himself, his wife 

Denise, and Cortez and Tantillo. 

“It’s been an adventure, 

but everything is falling into 

place,” he said. 

In addition to the 

music, the festival will offer 

carnival rides, food and 

drinks, crafts and vendors, 

and a car show on Saturday. 

Food will include jambalaya, 

hamburgers, 

seafood pistolettes, fried 

shrimp, and some other 

“surprises”, said Callais. 

The fight to find a cure 

for Cystic Fibrosis is close to 

being realized, according to 

Callais. He noted that 83% 

of all money raised by the 

CF Foundation goes directly 

into research, the highest 

percentage of any group 

raising money to fight disease. 

He and his cohorts are 

hoping that in the future the 

success of this event will 

lead to the group’s ability to 

funnel money into other 

needed charities like 

Alzheimer’s or Diabetes research. 

“We’re trying to get the 

word out so people can 

make a choice to come,” said 

a hopeful Callais. 

Evergreen Cajun Center 

in on LA Hwy. 24, about a 

mile south of State Police 

Troop C.

News in Brief 

State promotes 

Citizens rebates 

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — 

Louisiana taxpayers are 

leaving tens of millions of 

property insurance rebates 

unclaimed each year. 

Insurance Commissioner 

Jim Donelon said 

Thursday the reason is that 

nearly two-thirds of property 

owners are foregoing the rebates 

for the Louisiana Citizens 

Property Insurance 

Corp. assessment. 

Donelon said at the end 

of 2012, more than $255 

million remained unclaimed. 

He says property owners 

have a limited time to claim 

the rebates. The option to 

claim the rebate for the 2009 

assessment expires after 

Dec. 31. 

The rebates for 2009 to 

2012 can be claimed on 

property owners’ Louisiana

As deadline looms, 

governors join White 

House to condemn 

automatic cuts 

WASHINGTON (AP) — With 

the deadline for action less 

than a week away, exasperated 

governors are joining a 

White House push to intensify 

pressure on Congress to 

prevent a looming budget 

crisis. 

Both Democrat and Republican 

chief executives, 

gathered in Washington for 

the National Governors Association 

annual meeting, 

warned of widespread economic 

fallout should Washington 

lawmakers fail to 

reach an 11th-hour compromise. 

“It’s senseless and it 

doesn’t need to happen,” 

Maryland Gov. Martin O’- 

Malley, a Democrat, said 

Saturday. “And it’s a damn 

shame, because we’ve actually 

had the fastest rate of 

jobs recovery of any state in 

our region. And this really 

threatens to hurt a lot of 

families in our state and 

kind of flat line our job 

growth for the next several 

months.” 

Indeed, some governors 

expressed pessimism that 

both sides could find a way 

to avoid the automatic 

spending cuts set to begin 

March 1, pointing to the impasse 

as another crisis between 

the White House and 

Congress that spooks businesses 

from hiring and hampers 

their ability to construct 

state spending plans. 

“I’ve not given up hope, 

but we’re going to be prepared 

for whatever comes,” 

Dr. Fred Fernandez, D.C. • 632-2225 • Galliano

said Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval, 

a Republican. “There 

will be consequences for our 

state.”

Mass. boy, trying to 

avoid bedtime, calls 911 

BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) — 

Police in Massachusetts say 

a 10-year-old boy called 911 

because he didn’t want to go 

to bed. 

Brockton police say the boy 

made the emergency call 

just after 8 p.m. Wednesday 

and told the dispatcher he 

was calling to report his 

mother because he did not 

want to go to bed. 

There was no emergency. 

The Enterprise reports that 

according to the police log, 

an officer went to the boy’s 

home and explained to him 

when it’s appropriate — and 

when it’s not — to call 911. 

No one was charged.

Air Force One and President 

Bush strode to a 

warm but dignified handshake 

from Queen Elizabeth 

II. 

They rode in a silver 

1934 Bentley to the edge of 

central London where they 

boarded an open 17th century 

coach hitched to six 

magnificent white horses. 

As they rode toward 

Buckingham Palace, each 

looking to their side and 

waving to the thousands of 

cheering Britons lining the 

streets, all was going well. 

This was indeed a glorious 

display of pageantry and 

dignity. 

Suddenly the scene 

was shattered when the 

right rear horse let rip the 

most horrendous, earthshattering, 

eye-smarting 

blast of flatulence, and the 

coach immediately filled 

with noxious fumes. 

Uncomfortable, but 

maintaining control, the 

two dignitaries did their 

best to ignore the whole in-

She turned to Mr. Bush

2-B Wednesday, February 27, 2013 THE LAFOURCHE GAZETTE 

Colonels to start 2013 football season 

with tough road game at Oregon 

The Nicholls State University 

football program announced 

its 2013 schedule 

on Wednesday, February 

20 th , which will pit the 

Colonels against three FBS 

programs for the second 

straight year including national-title 

contender Oregon 

and in-state rival 

Louisiana-Lafayette, along 

with five home games at 

John L. Guidry Stadium. 

“I feel like our 2013 

schedule will be the most 

challenging scheduled in 

Nicholls football history,” 

said Nicholls head football 

coach Charlie Stubbs, who 

is entering his fourth year 

at the helm of the Colonel 

program. “All three of our 

FBS opponents are excellent 

programs, so it will be 

a great opportunity to compete 

and improve as we’ll 

play in tough environments 

that will prepare us for the 

Southland Conference.” 

The Colonels will open 

the 2013 campaign with 

their second consecutive 

trip to the Pacific Northwest, 

taking on the Fiesta 

Bowl Champion Oregon 

Ducks on Aug. 31. The 

Ducks are coming off a 12- 

1 season as they finished 

the season ranked No. 2 in 

the nation in both Top 25 

polls. 

“Oregon will be the 

toughest team that we’ve 

played in program history,” 

Coach Stubbs said. “They 

will most likely be ranked 

No. 1 or No. 2 in the nation, 

so we know it’s a huge challenge.” 

Following the Oregon 

game, Nicholls will play two 

familiar foes – Western 

Michigan (Sept. 7) and 

Louisiana-Lafayette (Sept. 

14). The meeting with Western 

Michigan will be the 

third in the last four years, 

while the Colonels will bat-

second time since 2011. 

“Kalamazoo has been a 

great atmosphere the last 

couple times that we have 

been there. Even with a 

new coaching staff, it will 

be a great opportunity to 

play a team from the Mid- 

American Conference” 

Stubbs said. “And 

Louisiana-Lafayette, they 

are an excellent program 

that’s headed in the right 

direction. We played them 

tooth-and-nail two years 

ago and the environment 

was electric. It’s a perfect 

opportunity for our fans 

and alumni to be able to 

support the Colonels on the 

road.” 

Before heading into 

Southland Conference play, 

Nicholls will make their 

Guidry Stadium debut on 

Sept. 21 against Langston, 

followed by another home 

game versus Arkansas Tech 

(Sept. 28). Langston, a 

NAIA school, went 6-4 last 

season while Arkansas 

Tech, a NCAA Division-II 

program, posted a 5-6 

record in 2012. 

After a bye week, the 

Colonels host Northwestern 

State on Oct. 12 for their 

SLC opener. For the rest of 

the month, Nicholls will 

play at Stephen F. Austin 

(Oct. 19) before taking on 

McNeese State (Oct. 26) in 

Thibodaux. 

In November, Nicholls 

will have consecutive games 

in Texas with contests at 

Lamar (Nov. 2) and back-toback 

FCS national runnerup 

Sam Houston State 

(Nov. 9). The Colonels will 

play their final home game 

on Nov. 16 against Central 

Arkansas before the Thursday-night 

season-finale at 

Southeastern La. (Nov. 21) 

in the River Bell Classic. 

Nicholls will begin its 

spring schedule on April 9.

MEMORIALS 

In Memory Of 

LEON 

CHARPENTIER 

(aka) Boo Boo 

Born: Sept. 24, 1977 

Died: Feb. 27, 2010 

Life is but a stepping 

stone place, a pause in 

what is to be a resting 

place, along the road to 

sweet eternity. 

We all have different 

journeys, different paths 

along the way, we all 

were meant to learn 

something, but never 

meant to stay. 

Our destination is a 

place for greater than we 

know, for some the journeys 

quicker, for some 

the journeys slow. And 

when the journey finally 

ends, will claim a greating 

peace together with 

the Lord. 

Love & Missing You 

Always
