I'm am just a young man who believes that the world must stand as one against the oppression and extermination against people all over the world. Recognizing these acts as exactly what they are, genocide, is a vital first step in ending them once and for all.

We applaud Mayor Hancock for creating a Housing Advisory Committee and pledging to tackle affordable housing in his State of the City address. We believe that the housing plan the committee is creating is an essential step and that the public should be involved. We call on the Mayor and committee to host public meetings to discuss how this plan can address the housing crisis working families in the City of Denver are facing. This is an opportunity for our communities and we have the right to be a part of the decisions that will affect our neighborhoods. Estamos contentos que el Alcalde Hancock ha creado un comité de casas y esta comprometido con afrontar el problema que necesitamos viviendas económicas en su discurso sobre su estado y la cuidad. Creemos que el plan de viviendas económicas que el comité está creando se encuentra en una etapa esencial y creemos que el público debería de estar involucrado. Nosotros estamos pidiendo al alcalde y al comité a organizar juntas públicas para discutir como este plan puede solucionar la crisis de alrededor de viviendas económicas que familias trabajadoras en la Cuidad de Denver están enfrentando. Esta es una oportunidad para nuestras comunidades y tenemos el derecho de ser parte de las decisiones que van afectar a nuestra comunidad.

Future generations are going to run out of trees and Iron ore. We must start recycling before it is too late.

Rep. Darrell Issa of California -- the Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee -- could make retail giant Target’s security breach look like child's play. He subpoenaed confidential documents from the federal contractor behind the healthcare exchange website despite repeated and explicit warnings, effectively putting millions of Americans’ privacy at risk. If leaked, these documents -- containing software code and technical information -- could make the site and its users vulnerable to hackers. The Chairman has a horrible track record of publicly leaking sensitive information, and he has already revealed portions of the documents in a public letter to Secretary Sebelius. Now that the documents are in the hands of Rep. Issa -- one of the loudest critics of the Affordable Care Act and HealthCare.gov -- there’s no telling what he might do.

With this sudden deregulation companies will be able to deny service to sites linked to their competitors, keeping consumers from looking at different services and deciding which company is best suited to their needs. This will also give service providers free reign to decide on pricing as well as increasing rates without having to conform to the government's standard, making millions pay more for the internet they have always had. If these deregulation efforts continue then companies will try to force us back into an old outdated media rather than innovate their own industry to adapt, something that has already held us back as a nation for the longest time.

The FDA does not require the labeling of GMO (genetically modified) food products, leaving consumers in the dark about the ingredients in their food. Without knowing, consumers across the country regularly consume food that contains GMOs. Most of the food available on store shelves today contains GMOs—and they’re not without risk. For one thing, studies suggest that genetically modified crops require a dramatic increase in the use of pesticides and herbicides, which have been linked to serious health impacts. In addition, there may be other serious dangers, but we just don’t know - there is very little independent research done on the health implications of GMO consumption because the seeds are patented and the companies that own them prohibit their cultivation for research purposes. It’s time that we label all foods that contain GMOs so that consumers can make informed choices. However, some big food manufacturers, along with chemical companies like Monsanto, are spending millions of dollars to oppose labeling. Consumers overwhelmingly want to know what they’re eating, and grocery stores are beginning to heed the call – just last year, Whole Foods committed to labeling. Now, we’re calling on Safeway to side with its customers and label its brands too.

Only through identifying committed supporters of Gerrymandering elimination and channeling our joint efforts, can we win this battle for voter rights and democracy as it will be fought in Ohio and eventually the rest of our Nation. With this petition, we can start to band together for this upcoming battle.

Myself and past students that have studied at the Prato campus found a warm and welcoming home at Caffè al Teatro Ristorante. They were amazing to us and provided us with not only great Italian food but also a wonderful Italian experience. They catered to our every need without any hesitations and did all they could to make our semester a great one without asking for anything in return. At UNH we consider each other family and at the university we take care of our family members. Caffè al Teatro is family and they should be treated like it!

In November 1994, Ella Rita Devaughn, was killed in a car accident caused by William Dandy (“Dandy”). Today, we would like to remove William Dandy's name from the middle school and restore the former name, Everglades Middle School, in honor of Rita Devaughn.

A 16-year-old charter school student says he was roughed up by Philadelphia Police so bad it sent him to the hospital-with possible injuries that could last a lifetime. We want to warn you some of the details of this story are graphic. 16-year-old Darrin Manning is still having trouble walking a week later. He suffered serious injuries to his genitals. He claims came at the hands of a Philadelphia Police officer during a recent arrest. "I think that was wrong. I think that was going overboard," Manning said. Manning, a sophomore at Mathematics, Civics and Charter School had just got off the subway with a dozen team mates in uniform on their way to play a high school basketball game. He says the group was confronted by police at broad and Girard. Exactly why the students were stopped and questioned is still unclear, but manning says he was put in handcuffs. he then says during a pat down a female officer squeezed his genitals so hard-it ruptured his testicle. "She patted me down again and felt her reach as she grabbed my butt and she grabbed and squeezed and pulled down and that's when I heard something pop," Manning said Hospital records show Manning spent night following his arrest at children's hospital where he underwent emergency surgery. His mother Ikea Coney says her son may have permanent injuries preventing him from fathering children. "The doctor told me you have to press charges and that just alarmed me," Coney said. Manning is now facing charges of aggravated assault and resisting arrest. "He doesn't deserve no felony he's not a bad child. He's not in the streets," Coney said. "I believe he was sexually assaulted" The founder of his school says she was with manning 10 minutes before the incident. She says this straight-A model student hasn't had a single discipline problem in his 3 year history at the school. "You shouldn't be able to do that to any child. But this is a 16-year-old and that the force that was used in his private area it's sort of concerning to me," Coney said. Police in the 22nd District tell FOX 29 they are looking into this case and perhaps launching an internal investigation in the next couple days.

It is of the utmost importance. The people are hungry.
