On July 25th my wife, Katy was going to grab some breakfast and decided to take Honey with her. Honey always goes straight to car, excited about going for a ride. Because of this, we have never leashed her when leaving the house. Neither Katy nor I checked the street before opening the gate. When we opened the gate, Honey saw someone riding a bicycle that we did not see. Yes, like any dog, she ran for the bike. Yes, she did "bite" the lady riding the bike. She got the lady on her ankle and as soon as I called her back to me, she came back. The bite was not serious and I could've done worse scraping up against a nail in the shop. Unfortunately, this lady called her husband to come pick her up and when he discovered Honey was a pitbull, the entire world ended. He did call animal services and Honey had to spend 10 days in quarantine. Unfortunately, this is not the end. The couple went to the city and filed a dangerous dog affidavit. Our hearing was on September 1st and despite all the evidence we had proving Honey was not dangerous, she was still deemed dangerous due to the fact that she attacked unprovoked. We are in the process of appealing this decision but this is just the beginning of a very long process. We ask for all the prayers and support you can give. Your help has been greatly appreciated and we cannot thank you enough. Those of you who know my dog know that the two years prior to us having her were more than likely filled with abuse. Since she has been with us, she has shown us nothing but love. Knowing the bad name and discrimination that pit bulls receive, we have always taken great care in socializing our dogs, providing a secure backyard for our dogs, and providing a safe neighborhood for those around us. This truly was an isolated incident for Honey. Honey has passed both beginner and intermediate training, in the presence of other dogs and people. Continued prayers and support are greatly appreciated. Please sign our petition and share it, help us keep Honey safe!

We with Caring About Treasured Strays daily receive calls, emails, messages in regard to the need for rescuing dumped-off cats and kittens, dogs and puppies. We work LONG hours to care for them and keep them from going to our Montgomery County, KY Animal Shelter, where there is no other option but to euthanize when at capacity or to add on to the building where the animals will live in cages for months on end. We rescued one a few months back that had lived in a cage for 8 months, most of its life. ~~Prevention is better than cure!!~~ Please sign and share and help to save lives!

I hired and paid a CPA to find money my husband hid to avoid taxes and support during my divorce. The CPA was hired as a joint expert to save money and report to the family court , but he never did anything I or my lawyers asked . He told the court he didn't like me because of my YELP reviews. He was paid $80,000 for five months of subpar work and demanded civil immunity and refused to work for over a year after I questioned his reports. He was paid more than I get in support for three years. My private judge paid himself $100,000 from my kid's college savings and allowed my husband to pay just $8.84 per month in child support. This has caused me and my son to go from an upper middle class lifestyle to near bankruptcy , with no end to my divorce in sight and while the lawyers and CPAs continue to take more money in fees than I will earn in my life. I filed a lawsuit , without a lawyer , against the CPA to get my money back . The CPA hired a malpractice lawyer and filed an Anti- Slapp against me. He lost the Anti- Slapp and is filing an appeal. It will cost me $100,000 if I want to hire an lawyer to defend me in the appeal. I shouldn't' t have to do this just because I am getting divorced and my CPA didn't do his job. And why would the CPA pay $300,000 in legal fees himself instead of just returning my $80,000, my retirement money ? The State Bar, CA Board of Accountancy , Judicial Performance Council and State Legislature must act to stop the abuse and fraud these legal and accounting fiduciaries are able to impose on family law matters. Please join me in acting the State Bar and the CA Board of Accountancy to revoke licenses of CPAs and Lawyers who act to cause such harassing litigation and excessive costs in family law cases.

As a transplanted Marylander (since 1989), I only recently became aware of the offensive lyrics to our State Song when legislators moved to take the Confederate flag off of state-issued license plates. I was appalled by the pro-Confederacy lyrics, which should have no place in our state's officialdom. They are rarely sung and hardly anyone knows of them, but still they are on record for our state, and presumably sung sometimes and/or studied by school kids. It's time to let go of this anomaly - this is divisive and hurtful to so many- and find a song to represent and unite all Marylanders - a song we can all be proud to sing!

This affects me so much. Please.

This is obviously a joke, but we still need people to sign it. Maybe one or two would make me happy.

Let's limit building height in the Divisadero corridor.

As a licensed cosmetology instructor, I've worked for 22 years to stay current in my field, spending thousands of dollars to do so. To take away our instructors' licenses without reason or warning is unfair and unjust.

This antiquated, disruptive practice no longer serves the people it affects. With this petition we are telling the Maine House, Senate, and Governor to stop the practice of changing the clocks in the spring and fall. Instead, let's keep Eastern Standard Time always in Daylight Savings Time, that is to say the way it is after we advance the clocks in the spring by one hour, never "falling back" in the fall. There are already too few daytime hours as it is!

Hello, my name is Wanda and I am the mother of seven lovely children. I am a avid believer in nurturing and chastising my children in a fair way. As a mother of black children I feel it is imperative that my children are an asset to society. After disciplining my second to the youngest child for an unexceptional report card the schools social worker reported me and my parental rights were terminated because of severe abuse findings. In the beginning the goal was to return my children to me. I did everything that was required of me except pay child support, but I did support my children in other ways when I did have visitations. I am reaching out for support requesting that my children be returned to my custody where they want to be. My children want to come home. If I was abusive they would not want to be around me. Please help me get my kids back! Thank you!
