					<description><![CDATA[The Seminole Tribe of Florida&#8216;s gambling revenue share payments are continuing to go into the state&#8217;s General Revenue Fund, the Department of Business and Professional Regulation said on Wednesday. The department, which oversees gambling, clarified its previous statements this week on how the money is handled. The tribe is seeking to extend a compact with the state to offer exclusively offer blackjack in return for a cut of that revenue, even though a federal judge ruled the state broke the original deal and the tribe can&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Should satellite-television service be taxed at a higher rate than cable? The Florida Supreme Court heard arguments from both sides Wednesday. Satellite TV companies, including DirecTV, want the court to uphold the 1st District Court of Appeal&#8217;s 2-1 decision last year, which said that taxing the two services differently is unconstitutional. The state&#8217;s Revenue Department and Florida’s cable TV industry want it overturned. At issue is the state&#8217;s communications services tax (CST), which charges &#8220;direct-to-home satellite service&#8221; at a total rate of 11.44 percent. Cable&#8230;]]></description>
