I like cheers. It was a pretty good show.

The Anna and Raven Show from Star 99.9 understands the frustration of both parents and homeowners when trick or treating falls on a school night. Many love this tradition but when it lands on a day during the week, it becomes a burden for parents and homeowners alike. By creating a "Trick or Treat Day" across Connecticut as the last Saturday of October, then the inconvenience is alleviated and those who celebrate October 31st as a religious holiday can continue with their annual traditions. We believe that starting Connecticut's "Trick or Treat Day" in October of 2018 gives state residents plenty of time to adapt to the new day of celebration and candy giving!

I have done everything in my power to get my 2 children back out of Foster Care this case worker that i have had in the past 3 years has done nothing but be against me in every aspect.

I have took every class took every drug screen and hair folicals and PASSED. I have maintained my home im a single mother and work every single day.

The NYU Brooklyn Athletic Facilities (BAF) made the decision to remove one of the most essential equipment -- the bumper plates. Gym members were in shock upon realizing there is not a single bumper plate left at the gym. The gym management team claimed that the removal of the bumper plates is for the safety of the individuals, and for maintenance of the equipment. However, without information on the number of incidents that are directly related to using the bumper plates and the damages of equipment that are proven to be caused by using the bumper plates, simply removing one of the most essential equipment is NOT an effective solution. In addition, it is claimed that people who work at the office located in the weight room have complained about noises from using the bumper plates. An office that is inside a weight room contains certain risks due to its inappropriate location and its poorly designed infrastructure. The effort of maintaining a "quiet" work environment for a cubicle located in a weight room should not be made at the expense of sacrificing the training of the very people who give essence to the gym.

Trump's Education Department announced last week that universities were free to raise the bar for evidence in holding students responsible for rape. This move rescinded two Obama-era protections for victims of sexual assault, making campuses across the nation more dangerous. Halfway through my second year at Grinnell College in Iowa, I was sexually assaulted. I think frequently about how much less safe my school was for the people around me, who continued to attend class and live with my rapist. Despite my rapist facing no punitive action, Grinnell took some steps toward preventing sexual violence: during my time in college, between 5 and 10 repeat offenders in their class were suspended or expelled for Title IX infractions. Despite my own abuser remaining on campus, I felt safer knowing that serial rapists were not welcome in our community. Betsy DeVos just took away that security. The security that needed to be expanded, not eliminated, for gender justice. We cannot sit back and allow our communities of learning to become dangerous for all students, and safe for perpetrators of violence. Sign on to tell Betsy DeVos and the Trump administration that we won’t stand for keeping rapists on our college campuses.

An Open letter to Craig A. Menear, Chairman, CEO and President of Home Depot Dear Sir: The Home Depot has earned a substantial amount of money this past year. During the second quarter of 2017, you earned 28.1 billion dollars. A very impressive amount of money. On August 15, 2017 you stated, “We were pleased with our results this quarter as our customers rewarded us with the highest quarterly sales in company history.” As you know, Barbuda, Dominica and Puerto Rico were impacted severely by hurricanes Irma and Maria. According to Fortune, Latinos are responsible for 29% of real income growth in the United States. It stands to reason that we, a segment of your customer base, have contributed to your earnings. In Puerto Rico, alone, you have eight locations. Clearly, you stand to earn a substantial amount of money as these islands rebuild. We ask that you reciprocate by donating basic construction supplies: wood, nails, concrete to these islands as they are in dire need. This will not only be a grand humanitarian gesture, but it will put the Home Depot on the map as a leader in community development. We, the undersigned, respectfully submit this request to you and hope that you will respond favorably to our plea.

I almost missed the game yesterday and this social injustice must stop. As men we are constantly bombarded with events that are designed to keep us from enjoying football. That is unconstitutional. As husbands that love our wives, we get put in a very uncomfortable position, and have to tag along at these unconstitutional events. Roll tide, and thank you in advance

The citizens of the U.S. and the entire world have been negatively affected are in grave danger.

As reported in the Washington Post, FBI agents are raiding animal sanctuaries with search warrants in a search for a baby pig rescued from a factory farm. This is not just deeply immoral - we have a duty to help animals who are being abused - but an incredible waste of government resources, in a time that our nation is in crisis due to natural disasters. We're asking Attorney General Sessions to instruct the Utah US Attorney and FBI offices to stop the harassment of animal rescuers, call off the hunt for Lily, and prosecute animal abusing corporations!

On September 2nd, Woods Humane Society fundraised for their dogs and cats by supporting, and taking money from, a chicken wing festival. Woods continues to hold other events that involve the killing and eating of animals other than dogs and cats. This is a horrific display of speciesism that we feel must come to an end.

To the Olive Branch community, alumni, parents, family and friends of the Olive Brach High School girls’ basketball team WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT with fighting this battle!!! Last basketball season, 2016-2017, the OBHS girls’ team won the 6A state championship making history in the Olive Branch community. On August 17, 2017, the Mississippi High School Activities Association (MHSAA) stripped the team of their championship title ruling there was an ineligible player. Along with stripping the title, the girls are not allowed to compete in post season of 2017-2018, the ineligible player is not allowed to play for a year, and there is a $500 fine. No rules were actually broken by the team. The ineligible player competed all season on the Olive Branch Middle School basketball team; after their season was up, she went on to play for the high school team. This young lady attended the middle school on an administrative transfer. DeSoto County School's policy states children of a full-time employees can attend the school of their parent’s choice. However, quite a few administrators failed to do their job and obtain the proper paperwork, and this is being held against the children. Both the middle school and high school are a part of the MHSAA, which means, the middle school administration should have turned in a transfer form to the District before the player could be eligible to play. This did not happen. Additionally, the high school submitted a roster to the district, state and MHSAA before playing in any tournaments with the “ineligible” player’s information. However, no one on any level of the administration disapproved this roster including MHSAA. Our girls should not be punished due to the incompetency of paid administration. These young ladies worked hard all season, and made Olive Branch history. We need the administration to be held accountable! Please support the OBHS girls’ basketball team on their journey to get this ruling overturned by signing this petition. Thank you kindly for your support! We are OB!

ESPAÑOL MÁS ABAJO The Matthews Board of Commissioners is considering a zoning petition submitted by Matthews Ventures LLC, together with the consulting firm Moore & Van Allen. If approved, the area will be rezoned to allow apartment complexes to be built on the property where we currently live. In order to build these apartments, our families will have to move our homes, so that the land can be developed for these apartments. Many of our homes are too old to move. We would have to leave them behind, losing all we have invested in them. The rest of us would have to pay thousands of dollars that we don't have to move the homes that can be moved. We are hardworking families that moved to this area, because it is affordable and most importantly the good schools for our children. This is a nice tranquil area to raise our families. Help us stop the gentrification of the area where we live. #SaveOurHomes #SaveOakhaven ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- La Junta de Comisionados de Matthews está considerando una petición de zonificación sometida por la compañía Matthews Ventures LLC, junta con la firma de consulta Moore & Van Allen. Si aprobada, las reglas de zonificación de la area donde vivimos serán cambiadas para permitir que se construyan complejos de apartamentos en la propiedad donde actualmente vivimos. Para poder construir estos apartamentos, nuestras familias tendrían que mover nuestros hogares. Muchas de estas casas son demasiado viejas para mover. Tendríamos que dejarlas, perdiendo todo lo que hemos invertido en ellas. Los que sobramos tendríamos que pagar miles de dólares que no tenemos para mover las casas que si se pueden mover. Somos familias trabajadoras, las cuales nos mudamos a la area porque es económica y mas importante por las buenas escuelas para nuestros hijos. Es una zona tranquila para criar a nuestras familias. Ayúdennos parar el aburguesamiento de la area donde vivimos. #SalvenNuestrasCasas #SalvenOakhaven
