  • Nuclear Power Study Must Be Honest and Without Bias
    Nuclear power is inherently risky, as evidenced by the 2011 triple meltdowns in Japan. The waste storage dilemma has not been solved. New small modular designs tout themselves as "self-contained" but will produce nuclear waste that needs storage for thousands of years, making them anything but self-contained. The exorbitant cost of nuclear was painfully shown in the WPPSS bond defaults, which we are still paying for.

  • Be part of the Wave of Kindness as it spreads across the Globe!
    It seems pretty simple to me: We need to do better. We know we can do better, and now that we know better, together let's see how far goodness can take us! (very much paraphrased quote of Maya Angelou) "You create your own universe as you go along" Winston Churchill "All that we are is a result of what we have thought" - Buddha "What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists." Alexander Graham Bell "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions." Albert Einstein "Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve" W. Clement Stone 1 Corinthians 13:1-2 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

  • SAVE THE ITALC PROGRAM AT FSK!
    The children in the ITALC class (room 108 and 109) are being forcefully removed from Francis Scott Key. The students in both classrooms are the most severely disabled in the entire school district. The ITALC program is the only program in the city that supports the needs of our children. It gives them the opportunity to communicate through electronic devices, because they are unable to communicate in any other form. The children will no longer have a class that meets their needs. The ITALC is the only form of education that our children can receive. The school district is treating these children as second class citizens by trying to take the rights to go to school and receive the special education that they deserve and need. Please sign and support this petition and forward to your friends, families and coworkers. Thank You, From the parents in rooms 108 and 109!

  • Get PAC Money Out of Santa Fe Election
    Three Mayoral Candidates met the qualifications for public financing in the first Santa Fe Mayoral Campaign to be publicly financed, Patti Bushee, Bill Dimas and Javier Gonzales.

At last reporting period, the unregulated Gonzales PACs and Unions were matching his allowed spending dollar for dollar.

  • Florida revise your Stand Your Ground Law to protect the innocent lives of black Americans
    Several states are ran under the Stand Your Ground Law allowing citizens to protect themselves on their property against criminals. However the state of Florida has shown clear abuse with multiple unjust killings under the protection of this law. Black men live with many false stereotypes that has caused other cultures to judge them and live in fear because of these stereotypes causing black men to be the most feared individual in America. However everyone deserves to live the American Dream that includes freedom of speech and justice for unjust acts. With the unnecessary killings that have taken place over the last 10 years in Florida that dream has been sadly taken away for many blacks in this state. It's time to wake up and say Enough is Enough. This issues touches me deeply because I am raising a young black king who deserves a chance at living out his dreams without living in fear because he is black male. Sign this petition and stand up as one to boycott Florida during spring break 2014. Spring Break is a very busy time for Florida and tourist bring a lot of money to this state during this season. We the American people want to see a change in Florida's Stand Your Ground Law so that innocent lives of black individuals are not unjustly taken over and over again because of fear that was created through stereotypes. An unjust law is no law at all. If we do not stand for something we will fall for anything.

  • Bag the Bag in Athens
    Single use plastic bags are commonly used for a short time yet carry long term environmental and economic impacts. They are a temporary product made from nonrenewable petroleum, yet take an estimated 1000 years to decompose. We hope Athens can be a frontrunner of environmental and economic sustainability through the joint efforts of legislators, businesses, and citizens to help reduce this unnecessary product: the single use plastic bag.

  • Cutler Michaud 'Take the pledge' - Stop LePage
    We can't have a replay of 2010! If Independent Eliot Cutler and Democrat Mike Michaud divide the vote against LePage, he’ll be back pontificating and bad-mouthing everyone in sight — for another four years! It’s time now that we start thinking about what we can do. Here’s a simple, straightforward idea: Two weeks before the election, the Michaud and Cutler camps should take an honest look at the most recent poll, and if one or the other is at least 10 points behind, he should do us all a favor, drop out and throw his support to the leading candidate.
