Keep our Terra Linda Community Residential!The building will invade privacy by allowing views into neighboring homes, will block views, and the now discreet campus will become an industrial feeling business building. A building of this scale does not belong in our residential community and goes against the original Terra Linda Master Plan of neighborhood schools!201 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Terra Linda Cares

Have both rails and trails on the remsen - lake placid corridor.I would like Rails and Trails running between Remsen Lake Placid corridor so people that like trails can have trail runs, walk and bike on and those people like me would like to have upgraded and have ski trains in the winter time and etc. There is no reason why we can't have both rails and trails because we can.95 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Fitzgerald

Citizen's Wolf Recovery VisionBeautiful, strong, and wild, America’s wolves once ranged across most of the United States. More than a symbol of wilderness, wolves have kept nature in balance and have helped maintain healthy populations of other important species. But centuries of hunting, trapping, and poisoning, and a government-sponsored eradication campaign, had essentially eliminated wolves from the American landscape. Today, thanks to the Endangered Species Act, wolves are finally beginning to recover in wild places and are once again a vital part of America’s natural heritage. Yet the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) has no plans to restore wolves to substantial areas of wilderness where they once lived. And, even more disturbing, FWS no longer wants to protect wolves as an endangered species. We have a responsibility to use the best available science to leave behind a legacy of protecting all endangered species for our children and future generations. We are gravely concerned that actions by state and federal agencies aim to undermine wolf recovery.33 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Endangered Species Coalition

Please sign the petition, the Final Hearing is on November 5th, 2014 at the Lyon Township hall. If you can make the meeting, That would be even better.195 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lisa

Amend the US Constitution to require citizens to vote.Voter turn out is embarrassingly low. Often election results do not reflect the general consensus. People are led to think their vote does not count, so they don't vote and are unhappy with the outcome. It is everyone's civic duty to vote. Many countries have compulsory voting. It's time we introduce it here before our elections are 100% bought/sold.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jasmine Dahlby

Don't Allow Her to Rent: Abusive LandlordDon't allow Ms. Thomas abuse any more people by letting her rent. She will call the police on a 2 year old child for walking through the front entrance, she will unplug your electricity, she will come into your home when you're not there, she will go into your car just to see what you are up to, she will put paint on your washing clothes, she will turn your water off if you shower more than 3.5 minutes. She's even pushed and hit her tenants for not putting the garbage out. 43 Woodbridge Avenue in East Hartford. Don't allow this woman to rent to innocent people.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Rita Lopez

Remove All Hate Speech including "Virgin Mary Should've Aborted" from FacebookFacebook is failing to live up to its obligations under its terms of service. It is failing to prevent the platform being used to spread hate and take it viral. Example of clear antisemitism that were reported to Facebook have now been reviewed by them and they have decided not to take any action. The picture of Anne Frank with the text "Whats that burning? Oh, my it's my family" is just one outragous example which was reported to Facebook only for the complaint to be dismissed. The company is letting down the Facebook community, that is us, the people. More details at: http://ohpi.org.au/?p=286 We demand Facebook immediately: 1. Shutdown the pages “Controversial-Humor-Jewish-Memes” (ID# 389407607793765 ) and “Holocaust”(ID #307998715931777) 2. Ban the users who created these pages in response to their promotion of hate speech 3. Competently review all complaints about racist pages that have been rejected We ask that Facebook: 1. Change the way reports regarding pages are managed. Pages should use the same “Support Dashboard” as complaints for photos, timelines and profiles. 2. Investigate how the complaints about the images shown at http://ohpi.org.au/?p=286 were rejected 3. Implement better training processes for staff managing complaints 4. Implement ongoing regular systematic audits of complaints processed by front line staff Hate speech can target either a person or a group of people. It includes speech targeting all people of a particular race, nationality, ethnicity, country of origin, religion, sexuality, gender identity, gender, or on the basis of a medical condition or disability. Facebook’s terms of service, the “Statement of Rights and Responsibilities”, clearly state: “You will not post content that: is hate speech”. Facebook must act to remove the hate.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Trevor J. Vanderlan

Express Bus stops needed in Park SlopePark Slope has no mass transit access for the aging and disabled. Therefore, the only way for residents to go to appointments in Manhattan, including doctor, family , educational and cultural visits, usually requires that they drive or take car service. This increases environmental pollution thus negating an important goal of urban living. In addition , it is an added expense to this population many of whom live on fixed budgets and must deal with the costs of living in New York ,one of the most expensive cities in the USA.121 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Alice Sandgrund
