Nn more. Cleanup, government fines, lawsuits, legal fees and damage claims will likely exceed the $40 billion that BP has publicly estimated, according to an Associated Press analysis. But they'll be far below the highest estimates made over the summer by legal experts and prominent Wnll Street banks, :-;uch as Goldman Sachs, whi<.:h snid costs coulO near $200 billion. BP v. ill survive the worst ml spill in U.S. history for SC\iernl key reasons: it has little debt; its global bu inesses are forecast to generate $26 billion next year in cash flow from operation:.: the environmental impact of the spill isn't as bad as feared: and the government seems unlikely to bah BP from Gulf drilling. To bolster its finances, BP has cut its dividend. issued debt and sold more than $21 billion in a sets. "It could have been a lot worse," says Tyler Priest, a UnhcrsJty of Houston petroleum historian who President serves on Obama's oil spill investigation committee. "BP is goin£!. ,';' to come hack from this. Many influential im cstors .tppear to agree. According to Thomson Reuters, 23 fmns with $1 bilhon or more mvested in the stock market, including BlackRock Investment Management, ~lanaged Account AdvisOJ s nnd Rydex Security Global Investors, more than doubled their holdings of BP stock from July through September. At $44.11. BP's stock price ha risen 63 percent from its low of $27.02 on June 25. It's still down 27 percent from its close of $60.48 on AP.ril 20, the day of the sp•ll. The well was capped on July 15. The AP analysis shows the company is likely to face $38 billion to $60 billion in spill-related costs. A settlement with the federal government could reduce that amount, while a successful classaction lawsuit could add billions more. The analysis includes: • The $10.7 billion that BP already has paid to plug its v.ell, clean up the spilled oil and pay damage claims and other costs. • A $20 billion fund that BP set up m August for individuals and private busines es that were affected by the spill. The fund, known as the Gulf Coust Claims Facility, pays for environmental damuge, personal injury, cleanup and lost eammgs. The fund so far has 'p.1id $2.7 billion to address nearly 168,000 claim . Nearly half a million indi- viduals and businesses have filed claims, and those that settle with the fund gh e up their right to sue the company. If any of the $20 billion 1s left over. it goes back to BP. -Fines: The Justice Department 1s suing BP for violating the Clean Water Act. Fines arc hascd on how much oil was spilled. The government's estimate of 4.9 million barrels means BP faces between $5.4 biUion and $21.1 billion in fines. The upper limit applies if mvcst1gators conclude BP acted with gross negligence. The government has a l11story of settling with companies for as little as 50 cents on the dollar in order to avoid lengthy disputes. says Eric Schaeffer. former of the head Environmental Protection Agency's enforcement divi ion. • Legal fees: BP has hired lawyers, engineers and geologists to defend the company. These experts could cost as much as $2 billion, according to Mitratech Inc., a con ulting firm that handles legal and trial logistics for Fortune 500 companies. • Law:.uits: The toughest cosb. to estimate arc future settlements and judgment:, from the hundreds of lawsuits filed against BP, including any cla s actions. Shrimpers. oy termen, charter-boat restaurant operator • worke• s and real-e<;tate developers arc suin~ BP for lost bu'\incss. 011 rig workers and cleanup crews ctre making personal mjury claims. And Gulf states and local governments are expected to sue for lost tax revenue and environmental daniages Alaham.t is seeking an initial $148 m1llion from BP. Analysts at Citi~roup say settlements. Judgments and puniti\ e damages from the e suits v. ill total ns much as $6 billion. Legal experts caution that the unpredictability or juries makes it difficult to estimute the cost of losing a class-action lawsuit. A succeo;;sful class-action could easily double the Citigroup estimate for total legal liabilities. says Alexandra Lahav, a University of Connecticut professor v. ho studieo; such lawsuits. BP may be able to spreCid the pill's costs around. Minority partners Anadarko Petroleum Corp. and MOEX 2007 LLC own 35 percent of the operation, and rig ov. ncr Transocean Ltd. also may be asked to pay. ''Companies have the incenh\e to settle with BP to put the matter behind them," FBR analyst Robert MacKent.ie says. He expects BP to get as much as $2 billion from Transocean and as much as $4 billion from Anadarko. "We\e et aside what we think is the right amount to pay for the relevant cost'>" from the spill. BP !ipokeswoman Sheila Williams says. Since the spill, BP has moved aggressively to shore up Jts finances. The company suspended its quarterly dividend of 84 cents a share, which cost it $10.5 billion last yea1. It also r:11sed $21 billion in asset sales that include: $7 billion for its stake in Pan American E:.nergy; $7 billion for oil fields m the U.S .. Canada and Egypt; $1.9 billion for its Colombian exploration business; and $1.8 billion for assets in Vietnam and Venct.uela. BP also raised $3.5 billion in an Oct. I. bond sale. From April through June, when BP's stock v.as tanking. Fred Fromm, who manage~ a natural resources fund for Franklin Templeton Investments, scooped up 170,000 shares. The1r v:~]ue climbed by more than $2 million in the third quarter. A few weeks after the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded and sank, scienti ts worried the oil slick would reach the Gulf's Loop Current, which sweeps around Florida and up the East Coast. Beaches would be damaged along the way. But BP got lucky. Gulf winds kept ~hifting, which kept the oil concentrated in the water~ outh of Louisiana. said Da\ id Hollander, a University ol South Florida chemical oceanographer. And hurricanes mostly avoided the region. Scientists disagree about how much oil remains in the Gulf, bute already the streaky sheens of oil on the surface arc mostly gone. The more oi I that remains, the greater the potential for environmental lawsuits. Whatever remains, "it won't impact their longterm abiltty to do business," says Citigroup oil analyst Mark Fletcher. Exxon dealt with lawsuits for decades after its Valdez. supertanker ran aground and spilled ll million gallons of crude mto Alaska's Prince William Sound in 1989. The pill cost Exxon $4.5 billion - nearly half of which went to clean up the oil. The rest was spent on payments to residents and businesses, punitive damages and settlements with the govemment. Exxon never lost its perch among industry leaders, and BP won't A either. says Citigroup's W Fletcher. BP remams among the top oil drillers m a world that runs on petroleum, and that may be the best way to judge the company's lasting power. ''Did (Valdez) stop anyone from buying Exxon gasoJine"l No. Exxon's results are better than anyone's on a multiyear basis." Fletcher said. 3 suicide bombers used to kill tenacious Iraqi cop BY BARBARA SURK ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD - Police commander Lt. Col ShamJI al-Jaboun knev. ai-Qaida \\anted h1m dead.

Police manning one of at least four observation towers surrounding the compound shot one of the attackers in a yard and his vest exploded. Under the cover of that blast, police said. the other two suicide bombers charged about 100 yards (90 meters) and made 1t u\to al-Jabouri's single-story butlding They detonated thetr ve h 1multaneou I) one at the door of alJnbouri's offipe- killing the commander instantly and injuring a policeman sleeping in a trailer nearby.

The attack on the commander resyonsible for hunting a -Qaida in Mosul a former militant stronghold -·was a reminder of the significant gaps in lraqi security, the challenges the new government will face in trying to close them and the lengths insurgents '>Ifill go to take out people they percehe as threats.

'We'\e lost a sv.ord of Mosul v. ho chased alQaida terrorist out of the city."' said Abdul-Raheem al-Shemeri. a top security official on the Mosul Prminc1al Council.

It said al-Jabouri had been targeted se\ eral time before. but had not been deterred from fighting ai-Qaida. 'This day was the decisi-.e one." the group said. AceOJ ding to the militants' statement, the attackers were dressed in police uniforms, which likely helped them get close to the compound an abandoned soccer stadium - \\ ithout raising suspicion.

A .., ___________________________________________ Palestinians target settlements in UN resolution B Y JOSEF FEDERMAN AND MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH ASSOCiATED PRESS RAMALLAH, West Bank The Palestinians plan to a:.k the U.N. Security COuncil in the coming d~ys to declare Israeli settlements illegal and demand a halt to their construction, officials said Wednesday. in a high stakes gamble aimed at •increasing pressure on Israel. A draft of the resolution obtained by The Associated Pres~ calls the settlements obstacles to peace but does not ask for sanctions against Israel or any other concrete action. This would he a key element in a Palestinian campaign to rally international support for independence, even without n peace deal. Officials said the strategy reflects their disillusionment with sputtering U.S. peace efforts and Palestinian distrust of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Tht~ move largely aimed at seeking U.S. support - bears huge risks. The U.S. has already balked at the resolution and might veto it. Even a U.S. abstention, a more likely option. would greatly diminish the resolution's significance. Israel blasted the measure as an effort to avoid ncgot iat ions. The White House launched the latest round of peace talk:; on Sept. 2, but they broke down just three weeks later with the expiration of a limited Israeli freeze on West Bank settlement construction. The Palestinians refuse to negotiate while Israel huilds home' for Jews in the We~t Bank C\nd en t Jerusalem areas the Palestinians claim for a future state. Netanyuhu has declined to renew the settlement freeze but says he would discuss all issues in direct negotiations. American mediators have been unable to find a compromise to restart the talks, leqadin~ the Palestimans to con~idcr alternative strategies. Palestinian officials said their resolution would be presented to the Security Council in early Jamwry. According to the draft obtained hy the AP. it will a~k the 15-member council. v. ho:-.e decisions are considered legally binding in international law, to declare ettlements "a major obstacle to the achievement of peace" and to ensure that Israel "completely ceases all settlement activity."' without saying how The draft, dated Dec. 21. notably docs not call for sanction,, in,tead urging both sides to continue negotiations toward a peace deal.

Wall Street campaign donations flooded to Republicans promising to roll back financial reform. Big businesses are sitting on a record pile ot cash and liquid assets while small busines:-.es still get the cold shoulder from banks. 1\1 ill inns of Americans have been foreclosed or are in default. One out of ten Americans are unemployed by the official count. which leaves many uncounted. Our infrastructure - much of it built decades ago when the highestincome taxpayers were more productive and less greedy - is rotting.

In a twist on the rightwing strategy long known as "starve the beast," Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell praised the tax deal as ''cutting off the spigot.'" People used to talk about robbin£ Peter to pay Paul. Now it's more like robbing everyone to pay the richest 1 percent. In the set up to the real robbery, the bottom 20 percent of Americans will save $396 on average in 20 II from the tax deal. the middle '20 percent will suve $1.5:?.1 and the richest I percent will take the lion's share, saving $76.949. according to Citizens for Tax Ju~tice. The tax deal cost of $424 billion in 20.11 will be added to the national debt.

Rio Grande (10-3) jumped out to a 19-6 lead and was never headed in rolling to the victory. The RedStonn took a 51-35 lead to intermission. Rio used a balanced attack, placing five players in double figures. Senior guard Jenna Smith nailed seven three- Favre from PageBl was "not candid in several respects durin~ the investigation resultmg in a longer review and additional negatjve public attention for Favre, Sterger and the NFL,'' the league sajd. The commissioner also told Favre that if he had found a violation of the league's workplace conduct policies. he would have imposed a "substantially higher level of discipline:' The NFL said its sole focus was on whether Favre violated workplace conduct policy, not to "make judgments about the appropriateness of personal relationships." There was no comment from Favre and his agent, Bus Cook, did not return messages. The ruling drev. a swift and bitter respon,.e from Sterger's attorney, who accused the league of favoritism. "It clearly shows that an NFL star player was given preferential treatment and tells all other players that failure to cooperate may cost you some money but will not result in other punishment." said Joseph Conway. who added there was ''ample evidence" the photos were of Favre. "Additionally. today's decision is an affront to all females and shows once again that, despite tough talk. the NFL remains the good old boys' league." Conway said. I Conway said Sterger is · undecided about whether to take legal action pointers in the game en route to a team-high, 27 points. The RedStorm would hit 14 trifectas in the contest. Junior guard Kaylee Helton followed up Smith's performance with 22 points. Helton also collected eight rebounds. Freshman forward Kate Hammond tossed in 16 points and pulled down six rebounds off the bench Senior forward Leah Kendro chipped in 15 points and hauled down eight caroms while senior point guard Bre Davis added 13 points and dished out nine assists. Freshman center Brooke Shaw was on the verge of double figures, scoring nine points and pulling down 12 rebounds. Senior center Ashley Saunders matched Shaw with 12 rebounds.

Favre has consistently refused to answer reporters· questions about the allegations.

Convinced to come back for one more run at a title by three Minnesota teammates who flew down to see him in Mississippi.

With 11 touchdowns and 19 interceptions. Favre·, passer rating 69.9 ranks ahead of Arizona's Anderson and rookie Jimmy Clausen of Carohna. Favre also has been battered by injuries to his ankle, chm. ribs, back, head and throwing shoulder - the one that forced him to finally miss a start, against the Giants on Dec. 13. But despite all his troubles, Favre has said all along that he did not regret coming back for a 20th NFL season. "If you had seasons like you did last year, every year." he said recently.

Ohro, on Saturday, Nov. 27 Ohio State won. 37-7. Controversy seems to shadow QB Terrelle Pryor COLCMBUS. Ohio (AP) The NCAA defended its recent rulmgs m violatiOns cases involving Ohio State and Auburn, saying it does not play favorites or make decisions based on I tllancial considerations. fhe NCAA posted a statement on its website Wednesday responding to critics. It says "the notion that the NCAA is selective with 1ts eligibility decisions and rules enforcement i'> another myth with no basis in fact. "Money is not a motivator or factor as to why one school would get a particular decision versus another. Any insinuation that revenue from bowl in particular would influence NCAA decis10ns is absurd, because schools and conferences recetve that revenue, not the NCAA.'' Last week, the NCAA suspended five Ohio State player~ for five games next season for selling their championship nngs, trophtes and other memorabilia Items, but is allowmg them to play in the upcoming Sugar Bowl.
