Mike Sherman did a great job with his presentation and Newton's request should have been denied.
Looks like the Semblers are backing this.

Perhaps send flowers?
It is the old practice of despots to use a part of the people to keep
the rest in order; and those who have once got an ascendency and possessed themselves of all the resources of the nation, their revenues and offices, have immense means for retaining their advantages.

2/28 is the day newton became "father cassian" It is a day where his followers celebrate and worship him. This is what was told by a newton follower to a neighbor in the area. Kinda friking scary if you ask me.

Feb 28 is the day to worship him, so lets give him the attention he desires.

Who knows? Judging by his age, I'd say the old coot would get tired trying to smack any more kids around. JMHO.

The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whistling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came.
One Two! One Two! And through and through,
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head,
He went galumphing back.
-- Lewis Carrol, Jabberwocky, "Through the Looking Glass"
Every act of a delegated authority, contrary to the tenor of the commission under which it is exercised, is void. No legislative act, therefore, contrary to the Constitution, can be valid. To deny this, would be to affirm, that the deputy is greater than his principal; that the servant is above his master; that the representatives of the people are superior to the people themselves; that men acting by virtue of powers, may do not only what their powers do not authorize, but what they forbid."
--Alexander Hamilton
