 Boston.com / News / Nation / Washington / Win may bring power to appoint 4 justices
WASHINGTON --Following a Supreme Court term that redefined national security laws with a scope not seen for half a century, activists on the left and the right are urging the presidential campaigns to focus on what could be the most far-reaching impact of the election: the power to appoint as many as four new justices.
Because this court reaches many decisions by 5-to-4 or 6-to-3 votes, the next president may be able to transform its delicate balance into a solid ideological majority that will control American law for the next generation.
"The next president is definitely going to appoint at least two and possibly as many as four justices to the high court, in effect recasting the court's direction for the next 20 years," said Sean Rushton, executive director of the conservative Committee for Justice.

City Attorney Michael Aguirre asked a judge on Friday to appoint him the legal counsel for the city' pension board and recommended a series of other legal remedies, including rolling back benefit increases he says were illegal and appointing a receiver to oversee the troubled pension system.

Although the lawsuit filed Friday included a request for a judge to appoint a receiver, one of Aguirre's chief deputies indicated that a final decision on receivership had not been made.

 eKOINONIA - Should We Recognize and Appoint Elders?
The question sometimes arises, "Should we recognize and appoint elders in each local church." Some believers argue that in Scripture, elders were only appointed by Apostles or their delegates, and so today, we should not appoint or recognize elders each local church.
It is not as if we have dozens of examples of elders being appointed and they all occur through an apostle or a delegate.
We must acknowledge that many churches that do not officially recognize elders, in fact appoint men to a position that is that of "elder" in everything but name.
