FILE - In this Tuesday, Feb. 22, 2011 file photo, brothel lobbyist George Flint, top right, stands behind Moonlite Bunny Ranch owner Dennis Hof, bottom second right, as they wait for U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to speak to a joint session of the state Legislature in Carson City, Nev. Flint is entering his 28th year as a uniquely Nevada political fixture: brothel lobbyist, wedding chapel owner, self-proclaimed mayor of the coffee shop at the Legislature and, perhaps most importantly, keeper of secrets. If Hof is the brothel industry's public face, Flint is its political girth, an accepted part of the Nevada legislative machine. (AP Photo/Cathleen Allison, File)

A mural depicting Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez in Caracas, Venezuela, Thursday, Jan. 3, 2013. The ailing president's health crisis has raised contentious questions ahead of the swearing-in set for Jan. 10, including whether the inauguration could legally be postponed. Officials have raised the possibility that Chavez might not be well enough to take the oath of office, without saying what will happen if he can't. The constitution says that if a president or president-elect dies or is declared unable to continue in office, presidential powers should be held temporarily by the president of the National Assembly and that a new presidential vote should be held within 30 days.

FILE - In this April 2007, file photo, a shovel prepares to dump a load of coal into a 320-ton truck at the Black Thunder Mine in Wright, Wyo. Lawmakers asked the U.S. Department of Interior on Friday, Jan. 4, 2013 to review whether companies are shortchanging federal and state governments out of millions of dollars in royalties on coal exported to foreign markets. A spokesman for Wyoming Gov. Matt Mead, a Republican, said state officials there had seen no evidence that companies had failed to pay their proper royalties. (AP Photo/Matthew Brown, File)
