As daylight shortens, commuters and trail users have to find alternative routes that do not include Delaware State Parks in the fall, winter, and spring. The affordability of new lighting technologies is making it safer to commute or recreate during night time hours. My recreational opportunities are limited between September and April because I work an 8 to 5 job.

This is a proposal for a ‘Water Consumption Tax’ when purchasing meat, dairy and eggs. A person consuming meat, dairy and eggs is responsible for massive amounts of water usage for the production of the animal products, far more than a person living a plant based lifestyle. In some cities, households are limited to only 50 gallons of water usage per person a day and fined if they exceed that amount. The same should apply to omnivores who eat animal products without consequence for the water crisis. The standard diet of a person in the United States requires 4,200 gallons of water per day (for animals’ drinking water, irrigation of crops, processing, washing, cooking, etc.). A person on a vegan diet requires only 300 gallons a day. It takes approximately 660 gallons of water to produce one quarter pound hamburger patty. At those numbers, it takes 2640 gallons of water to produce one pound of beef. Using that estimate it would take 6,600,000 gallons of water to produce one ton of beef; which would be equivalent to filling a 40 gallon bathtub 165,000 times. It is time for people who are consuming animal products to pull their own weight and to start being responsible for their impact to California's water crisis.

Great News! Another BIG WIN for campaign funding transparency this year! More than 11,000 people signed petitions, thousands left comments on Governor Jerry Brown's website, and hundreds called on this issue. This influenced the Governor to sign SB 844. Authored by Senator Fran Pavley, SB 844 will make it easy to see online who's spending money for and against California propositions. It requires the Secretary of State to create an online page listing the total amount raised and the top ten funders supporting and opposing the propositions. Perhaps most importantly, the official ballot pamphlet will include a link to the webpage, so it is easy to find. Please sign the petition thanking Governor Brown and urging him to join the California Clean Money Campaign to pass the California DISCLOSE Act in 2015.

Four and a half years ago, I started a kind and gentle peer support group for those of us who had fallen in love with or been victimized by Malignant Narcissists AKA Sociopaths. About 3 years ago, a handful of cyberpath women themselves started stalking me and my peaceful group alleging I , Luis Garcia, am a pedophile, wife beater, sociopath , con artist and wolf in sheep's clothing preying on vulnerable women. ALL THESE ALLEGATIONS ARE COMPLETE LIES... Since then, they have falsely alleged that I have a criminal record, posted pictures of me with my little boys alleging that they were random boys I molested, joined my group under false identities for the sole purpose of scaring group members and creating drama and chaos. At one point, I trusted two of them who befriended me and conducted a hostile takeover of my original group by force and threw myself, my ex-wife who cofounded the group and two other admins out of the group. They continue to stalk me, lie to new group members and ignore the reality that my group has helped over 1700 people worldwide survive and heal from sociopaths OR domestic violence..Even today, they cowardly hide in our group and spy on everything I do..They are nothing more than the Evil Abusers they claim to be exposing...I constantly post the online petition that they have created against me to make my new members aware of the horrific allegations because I have honor and integrity.....They have destroyed my marriage, pushed me to the brink of suicide and taken away any joy I feel going on the internet...I forgive them because most of the people siging the petition are nothing more than blind sheep following a lynch mob with torches held high trying to destroy an innocent man whom they label a monster...I am an open book and have nothing to hide (unlike the cowards who post) MY FB PAGE IS 100% PUBLIC , FIND IT HERE: https://www.facebook.com/helpall.hurtnone .... I can be reached anytime at 561-503-0108 or email ilresqunow@gmail. My home address is 1007 10th Avenue , Lake Worth, FL 33460.....I am an innocent man who has been crucified by very evil people who hide behind a keyboard...

We are asking everyone to please sign this petition requesting that the court transcript of a sidebar conversation from the IRP 6 federal court case be released (court proceeding on October 11, 2011). The IRP6 are six businessmen who have been wrongfully incarcerated for over two years. The court transcript of the sidebar conversation shows Federal Judge Christine Arguello demanded one of the defendants (aka the IRP6) take the witness stand or she would close their case. This is a violation of their 5th Amendment right. When the men requested the transcript, Judge Arguello refused to deliver it and to this day still has not provided it. We need to get the IRP6 men released from prison and back home to their families! These men were Wrongfully Convicted on trumped up charges and the court transcript of the sidebar conversation will prove that their fundamental rights were violated. DOJ and Congress should investigate this gross violation. We appreciate your support!

I was in a divorce with good credit ,several real estate assets, wife gone not helping with kids, business, financial responsibilities, nothing. Lawyers with blood hound noses for other peoples hard earned money & assets drug out 2.5yrs. while they embezzled over 80k in Real Estate Sales proceeds. Wife's attorney became Suspended from Practice twice, but Superior Court allows to continue to Practice Law while totally unlicensed. Defrauds me of my deed release after Court awarded me the home. Illegally strips child support rights from my innocent kids, the Criminally Corrupt liable Superior Court Signs illegal Orders and Aids & Abets Felony Criminal Acts to try and escape liability, accountability and public exposure.

State & Federal Judiciaries are so Flooded with Organized Crime Felony Corruption, Cronyism, Malfeasance, Gross Legal Abuse & Judicial Retaliation, They Frame and imprison innocent juvenile son holding Juvenile proceedings in complete secrecy kept from Father/legal Guardian, ignore fact that innocent son does not match description given by victim in age, weight , height, or hair color, refuses to allow innocent son to have a hair sample DNA test performed with the hair samples provided by victim already on prosecutors desk in front of Judge, refuse names & locations of the 3 real assailants who all fit description given by victim exactly, force father via Color of Law/ Extortion to pay $18,400 in restitution for crime he nor innocent son had any knowledge of or part in. Then fraudulently Converts title to home& property of prior 32yrs via violation of Void Judgment Doctrine When B.R.

Fraudulently Converts Title to Lakefront home after it is secretly sold at non announced to public fake fraudulent auction for 100k with appraised value at $425,000. State Violates Statute that requires Jury for all Real Estate Proceedings, Violates right to Jury, Violate filed Jury Demand, Steals money already pre-paid for Jury and intentionally maliciously assigns improper Venue to corrupt Sup. Ct. commissioner so as to retaliate, obstruct Justice, avoid accountability, disclosure, liability and sends out 10-12 heavily armed Pierce County Sheriff's who illegally force entry, illegal evict innocent citizen from own home & Property , steals all possessions(over 100k) breaks into all locked vehicles, home, Office building and steals everything I own, then refuses to take theft report complete with on site pictures so I cannot even turn in claim to own insurance company.

Just like in Nazi Germany. Rendering the Entire State and Federal Judicial System Totally Defunct, unable & Refusing to produce fair equal justice, truth, lawfulness, & provide Due Process of Law. There is No United States Constitution & We Have No Guaranteed Rights, No Safety, No Legal Honest Government Services, Just Organized Crime & Criminal Felony RICO.

The Brooklyn Lyceum needs to have its issues heard and addressed.

Tom Yawkey, who owned the Boston Red Sox for many years, was a known racist. The Red Sox were thus one of the last major league baseball teams to hire African American players. Every time I get off the train at Yawkey Station, then walk down Yawkey Way (in front of Fenway Park) on my way to work, I wonder why was anything ever named after Tom Yawkey. It is an insult to the good citizens of the metropolitan Boston area.

As the lead liar at Faux He has constantly divided and lied to the American people. He has been involved in sexual harassment cases and he has increased hate in America and done it for money..

We would like to share another side of the story on Deborah Reid Kimbrough.We need as many signatures as we can get in the next couple weeks. Debbie is not nor ever been a violent person. In the 55 years of her life I cannot remember any time that she lost her temper.She did not cold blooded shoot Howard "Sonny" Kimbrough. Sonny was not the perfect person some people want you to believe. Her mother passed away earlier that year in her home and she was not allowed to mourn for her. Their financial situation was in a shambles due to both her, Sonny and their children. It was going to get worse and she was at a dead end, knowing how violent Sonny was. His second wife (Tina Woods) mother, when she left him Sonny went to her home and fired shots into it with no regard to whomever was inside. He put his Mother & father-in-law out of their home and left the elderly couple in a financial strain all because he had been telling a lie the whole time about his own living situation. Sonny had already threatened her life. She was hardly ever allowed to go anywhere without him there. She was already living in a prison environment. Unless you have been in a violent relationship you cannot judge what another person felt was their only option. I am sorry for the loss to his family but Debbie lost a whole lot more. She deserves a chance to get on with her life now. Thank you All and God Bless You. She never stood a chance on a fair trial in Colbert County, even after the Judge set her bond and Deborah had two people to put up the assets for her release on bond. The Sheriff Ronnie Mays denied them the chance to even apply, so he violated her rights.

Bill Moyers and Company has been a breath of fresh air since it started in 2011 at a time when the world needed responsible sense-making. While Moyers provided the voice, it was the work of his "Company," the staff that provided the knowledge and information, that made the show. The Company does not have to end. PBS should hear from its audience that the show must go on with a new on-screen personality whose experience and demeanor match that of Bill Moyers.

Dave Gottschalk (@Gawdchalk) was flagged on Twitter by Ben Sasse supporters for exposing out of state money trying to buy Ben Sasse's U.S. Senate campaign.
