Stop Wall to Wall Coverage Practices by News Media Organizations.While the loss of flight 370 is tragic, the entire mainstream media has covered absolutely nothing else since it's disappearance. Even when there were no new developements, the mainstream media persisted in speculation and inumerable repititions of information that was already widely known. It is the responsibility of the newsmedia to ensure that viewers are aware of all pertinant and current events. The practice of extended wall to wall coverage of this or any other issues by the mainstream media is a failure to meet their obligation to keep the viewers informed on newsworthy events. The signers of this petition collectively ask, both now and in the future, that media organizations do not engage in the practice of wall to wall coverage and keep people updated on ALL current events.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Christian Tecker

Create NYS Office of the Utility Consumer AdvocateAll New Yorkers, especially those in Western and Upstate New York pay way too much for utility services that are produced here. New York State has the highest electrical rates in the nation, but also have 51 power generating plants. One of these plants is located in Niagara Falls. The 2,353-megawatt Robert Moses Niagara hydroelectric power plant was the fourth largest hydroelectric power plant in the United States in 2010 and, in 2011, New York produced more hydroelectric power than any other State east of the Rocky Mountains. That is only one of 5 such plants in Western New York. The only state that pays more per kWh is Hawaii. See: http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2011/10/27/141766341/the-price-of-electricity-in-your-state Bring our rates down.108 of 200 SignaturesCreated by SUSAN SHELDON

Shame on the New York Jets for hiring Michael VickThe scourge of dog fighting still plagues this country. Allowing scum like Vick to represent the New York Jets is appalling. Vick's sadistic and brutal abuse still haunts the dogs who managed to survive. It makes animal lovers everywhere sick to see Vick on the news. Stop rewarding his monstrous behavior by paying him millions.68 of 100 SignaturesCreated by PJ Clark

The NFL bought itself a tax exemption — Let's repeal it.You know the NFL as the National Football League. But the IRS knows them better as the Nonprofit Football League – that’s because the NFL has not paid any taxes since 1966 and average Americans are left paying higher taxes to make up for that lost revenue. Senator Coburn is trying to change that, and we support his endeavor. The NFL has spent $3.6 million lobbying in recent years, and contributed more than $1.6 million to members of Congress. It leads all professional sports leagues in lobbying expenditures. Lobbyists demonstrated their prowess by adding, “or professional football leagues” to the language regulating 501(c)(6) nonprofit organizations back in 1966, and it has remained there ever since. No wonder Senator Coburn has yet to gain the support of his colleagues – we know how powerfully corrupting money in politics and the role of lobbyists has become. The only way Congress will act in the people’s interest is if the people begin demanding it and show them where we stand!199 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Demand Progress

Fire Rejean SheroYou have the two best players in the game and continue year after year fail to surround them with 2 respectable players. Neal and Kunitz are fine, but Sid should not be stuck with Dupuis/Bennett/Stemp and Geno should not be stuck with Jokinen. Kunitz will only start to decline from here on out. Sadly, these are some of the better forwards that these two have played with. Sid and Geno are no longer 20 years old, it is time to properly utilize them. STOP signing guys like Orpik and Scuderi. They are not good players. Stop only drafting Dmen. You should probably play some young guys regularly to save cap space and to maximize their value. Shero's 2013 off-season: Re-signed: Dupuis and Adams Signed: Kobasew, Jeffrey, D'Agostini, Scuderi 3 of these idiots were waived Shero's #1 mistake - signing Bylsma to an extension Shero should be relived of his duties. His strategy of modeling the team after the Nashville Predators, yes, those Predators who have won 2 playoff series in their history.23 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Shero Must G/o
