California Can't Perform Pay Cut Because of COBOL

beezzie writes "Last week, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger ordered a pay cut, to minimum wage of $6.55/hr,, for 200,000 state workers because a state budget hadn't been approved yet. The state controller, who has opposed the pay cut on principle and legal grounds, now says the pay cut isn't even feasible because the state's payroll systems are so antiquated. He says it would take 6 months to go to minimum wage, and 9 months more to restore salaries once a budget is passed. The system is based on COBOL, according to the Sacramento Bee, and the state hasn't yet found the funds or resources, in 10 years of trying, to upgrade it." The article quotes a consultant on how hard it is to find COBOL programmers; he says you usually have to draw them out of retirement.

What portion of disability is taxable?

I will soon be receiving two and a half years of back pay from disability insurance and I am confused about how much or what part I must pay taxes on. My employer paid the premiums for basic long-term disability and I paid for "enhanced" long-term disability with after-tax dollars, which shortened the waiting period from 180 days to 90 days. Does this mean that the only portion that is nontaxable is the amount of the back pay that is equal to 90 days of pay, and the rest, including future monthly payments, is taxable?

Copyright Office: cable should lose special access to local channels

Cable and satellite broadcasters have long relied on a special set of three narrow statutory licenses that Congress gave them years ago to help prop up the pay-TV industry in its infancy. The licenses (found in sections 111, 119, and 122 of the Copyright Act) allow the pay-TV providers to grab certain over-the-air signals from local broadcasters or from far-off "superstations" like WGN in Chicago and transmit them over their own networks without asking permission. They have to pay, but the amount is fixed by Congress and is likely below market rates. A new report from the Copyright Office (PDF) suggests that this system should come to an end, and that it should not be extended to Internet broadcasters.
