As loyal viewers, we are asking for his representation.  As a film historian, I am concerned that Turner Classic Movies is attempting to rewrite film history. Since they do not own the films of 20th Century Fox, they promote the stars and studios of the films they do own, giving the impression that Fox and its stars were less important. In the book by Bruce Cogerson, The Top 50 Movie Stars: Statistically Speaking, using box office figures adjusted for inflation and awards, Tyrone Power is listed as the 21st biggest male star in film history. This list includes modern stars - Harrison Ford, Tom Hanks, Leonardo DiCaprio etc. Yet in TCM’s book, The Top 50 Leading Men of the Studio Era, Tyrone Power is eliminated. How is this possible? Yet actors whose films are owned by TCM are there who were less popular. This may seem unimportant. Yet we live in a time where there is an aggressive effort to rewrite our country’s history and the contributions of some of our citizens. However, the legacy of talented individuals needs to be preserved. 

Permanent corrective action to armor the cliff with a rip-rap system has been in place since April 5, 2013 – Project # GXUN 13-0016 – and even has been funded several times, with that money then put to other uses. Local, state, and federal agencies are all aware of the problem and detailed studies have been completed with multiple state and local agencies participating. But year after year this project, important to thousands of military and federal personnel, drops out of the funding formula despite this long-standing plan and remedy.  Meanwhile prices rise and the damage continues, making the immediate cliff a danger, though not one person has been injured in all this time. The site is currently under the ownership of Hanscom Air Force Base’s 66th Air Base Group, with many of its neighbors to the south on Humarock Beach having adequately armored their properties on their own dollar. The people who have signed this petition (with family and friends who know of and have enjoyed Fourth Cliff) urge these lawmakers to take action and see that Project GXUN 13-0016 gets funded this year, saving Fourth Cliff for posterity as an R&R gem. It is also sanctuary to three endangered species of birds.  As a 100% disabled veteran with a Purple Heart and two Bronze Star metals from combat in Vietnam, Fourth Cliff has been a great blessing to my wife and I for 45 years, from tenting to renting guest houses, to holding our daughter’s wedding in the Pavilion, to beachcombing, swimming, and fishing. My three grown children and grandchildren enjoy and love Fourth Cliff. This is our favorite location in all of New England, no, in the United States, a real gem. Contemplating a future without it is almost too hard to imagine.  The announcement of its closure late this year for safety reasons (though no one has been injured there in its history), drove me to post this petition and urge our lawmakers to “Save Fourth Cliff!” It is not too late. Find a way to fund this 2013 project now, and provide the resources needed to upgrade an important historical site and campground for thousands of military members and residents who are an important boon to the local economy.

AI technology is advancing faster than community leaders and elected officials can keep up, and in Ohio, many of these data centers are going up without full transparency around who is behind them. Meanwhile, billionaires are getting richer from data centers that put a drain on local communities and force everyday people to foot the bill.  A 2022 study from UCLA and Columbia University found that historically redlined communities face the brunt of the pollution and toxicity from data centers.  Our communities will only suffer more with the construction of more centers and we deserve better.  Sign the petition calling for a data center moratorium!

Trump wants to rewrite the past and sow doubt about our elections to lay the groundwork to contest November’s midterm elections and seize control over future elections. There are checks and balances in our country for a reason. Local leaders run our elections—not the president. Only an authoritarian would attempt to seize control of our elections in order to control the outcome.  That’s why it’s so important that the North Carolina Secretary of State join other secretaries of states across the country and double down and commit to overseeing a free and fair election. And they need to know North Carolina constituents are watching and support them in upholding the law. They are, after all, elected to serve the people, not the president.  We need to defend our democracy. Join NC neighbors and your name to the petition to urge our North Carolina Secretary of State to protect essential voting processes from partisan interference and uphold the will of the people! 

As a part of his mission to cut out government “waste” and cut through bureaucracy, the Trump administration and Republicans  have put the health of the American public in danger.  Since the start of Trump’s second term, the FDA has lost 20% of its staff — including 1 in 5 positions from its human food inspection division, and the CDC has lost 25% of its staff – now with only three scientists tracking food parasites.  In 2025, Trump eliminated the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods, which was created in 1988 under president Ronald Reagan to provide scientific advice and coordination to defend against dangerous microbes.  The administration also ended the mandatory tracking of cyclospora and other foodborne illnesses, which the FDA, along with other key agencies, was involved in. Gutting staff at these critical agencies didn’t save money, it risked the health and well-being of millions of people and we need answers now. Sign the petition to demand the Senate HELP Committee investigate the FDA over food recalls!

San Diego FC is more than just a soccer club—it represents the passion, culture, and community of our city. Hirving “Chucky” Lozano inspired thousands of fans and helped bring excitement to the club from the very beginning.

By signing this petition, you’re showing that fans have a voice and that we want what’s best for San Diego FC. Together, we can encourage the club to reconsider and give Chucky the opportunity to wear our colors once again. If you believe in supporting San Diego FC and want to see the club compete at the highest level, this campaign is for you. Every signature shows that fans care about the future of the team and want Chucky Lozano back in San Diego. Whether you’ve supported the club since day one or recently became a fan, your voice matters. Join us in asking the club to reconsider this decision and help bring one of the most exciting players in North American soccer back to SDFC. Together, we can make our voices impossible to ignore.

West Orange, a beautiful and thriving community in New Jersey, is facing a critical decision: whether to approve zoning variances that could fundamentally alter its character and quality of life. As residents, we cherish our town's unique blend of suburban charm and natural beauty, along with its vibrant community spirit. However, the proposed zoning variances threaten these treasured aspects of West Orange. Zoning variances may lead to overdevelopment, increased traffic congestion, threats of severe explosion and fire hazards, environmental problems and strain on our already burdened infrastructure. Historically, similar developments in other communities have resulted in negative environmental and health impacts, such as loss of green spaces, increased pollution levels and other problems. According to a study by the Urban Land Institute, unchecked growth can lead to a decrease in property values and quality of life. We must prevent this from happening in our town. Moreover, these zoning changes could pave the way for corporate and industrial interests to take precedence over the needs of local residents. Small businesses, which are the backbone of our local economy, may suffer as high-rise developments and big-box stores replace beloved local shops and eateries. Communities like ours thrive on character and local engagement, not on imposing developments that ignore the essence of our town. Instead, we should prioritize smart growth strategies that respect the environment, maintain our town’s charm, and meet the real needs of all residents. This includes supporting developments that enhance our community without compromising our values. We urge our local authorities to consider sustainable alternatives that foster economic growth while preserving West Orange's unique character. And we call upon the members of the zoning board to reject these proposed variances and engage with community stakeholders in meaningful dialogue to address growth concerns in ways that benefit and respect everyone in West Orange. This is an opportunity to show that responsible and thoughtful planning can lead to long-lasting prosperity for all. SIGN THIS PETITION TO PROTECT WEST ORANGE FROM UNNECESSARY ZONING VARIANCES AND ENSURE A SAFE, PROSPEROUS FUTURE FOR OUR COMMUNITY. LET'S WORK TOGETHER TO MAINTAIN THE VALUES AND CHARM THAT MAKES WEST ORANGE A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE! 

To be responsible citizens in a community means we have to protect our homes, land, pets, children and state of New Mexico. Too many safety concerns that are dangerous for all of the neighbors to feel safe in the homes they work so hard for and families that are too precious to put in harms way when it can easily be prevented.  

The importance of this campaign, and why others should join, is rooted in the necessity of correcting historical truth and establishing a future built on sovereign authority rather than administrative erasure.   Why This Campaign Is Important  Restoration of Historical Truth: The campaign addresses the systemic misclassification of Indigenous populations, which has suppressed identities and erased the legal and cultural recognition of these Nations for centuries.    Reclaiming Stewardship: It is essential for the return of control over ancestral lands, resources, and cultural heritage, which were often stripped away through displacement, flooding of ancestral towns, or the destruction of sacred burial sites.    Enforceable Justice: By framing restoration as an "administrative correction" grounded in federal and international statutes—such as NAGPRA, the Marshall Trilogy, and UNDRIP—the campaign transforms abstract grievances into actionable, legally sound demands.    Breaking Cycles of Trauma: It addresses the intergenerational impact of historical trauma, including the forced assimilation and marginalization that resulted from being mislabeled under obsolete categories like "Negro" or "slave".   Why Others Should Join the Campaign  Participation in a Factual Correction: Joining this effort means contributing to a monumental shift in history where the record is corrected to reflect the actual, documented identity of the original inhabitants of the Americas.    Supporting Sovereign Autonomy: By supporting this cause, allies and stakeholders help create the framework for Nations to manage their own education, economic systems, and cultural preservation, ensuring future generations are not defined by historical misclassification.    Upholding Universal Rights: This campaign advocates for principles of self-determination recognized internationally; supporting it aligns one with the global movement for Indigenous rights and the protection of cultural integrity.    Building a Legacy of Justice: The campaign is not merely about the past; it is about establishing a precedent where justice is not a favor granted, but a truth recognized, creating a foundation for equitable treatment and sustainable development for all historically misclassified peoples.   This movement seeks to honor the "rightful custodians" of the land by ensuring that the "story and authority" of these Nations is restored through "incontrovertible historical evidence".   

Children with special needs—specifically those who are autistic, nonverbal, or have significant developmental and physical delays—face a disproportionately high risk of mistreatment, neglect, or abuse. Because many of these children lack the verbal capacity or communication skills to advocate for themselves, report incidents, or articulate their daily experiences to parents and guardians, traditional reporting mechanisms are entirely insufficient.

Dear Neighbors, We need your help to protect our neighborhood from a proposed commercial rezoning project near 2330 McFarland Road in Raymond, MS. We are working to safeguard our community from developments that could increase costs, impact safety, and decrease our property values. The Ecowomanist Institute Southeast Corp (EWISE) formally submitted this request in conjunction with a permit filed on May 27, 2026. While their specific intentions for the project remain unclear, the proposal involves 196 acres of land on McFarland Road within our private residential area. This project will disrupt our community by causing unnecessary traffic, decrease in property values, potential crime, diminished infrastructure requiring future maintenance and higher taxes. Please take a moment to sign the petition to prevent this Special Use Permit. We must act now to preserve our neighborhood; please sign the petition and forward this email to others in the area. Thank you for your support. Best Regard
