Every day I walk my nephews to school at Hunters Glen Elementary and too many motorists are not paying attention to the road or are driving too fast in a school zone. This is a serious issue because our children could be injured or worse, fatally struck by a moving vehicle if we do not secure the resources we need to keep them safe. Please show your support by signing this petition today so that we can show the Fort Bend Independent School District that we are serious about keeping our children safe.

the petition you signed reads: If the government shuts down due to Congress being unable to come to agreements, then furlough their $174,000 (and John Boehner's $223,500) salaries. Here's what John Markosky wrote about it: Congress is willing to furlough their own staffers along with more than 800,000 federal workers, while they suffer no monetary loss at all. If they think it is okay to shut the government down (or not raise the debt ceiling), then they should be the first ones to suffer from it. Click here to start a petition on the same issue to Rep. Stockman, Sen. Cornyn, and Sen. Cruz. Thanks!

The TeaParty has become the most destructive force against our country, affecting so many people struggling in this economy while perpetuating their suffering. They have become the death panels they warned us about.

I want the government back in operation, to stop the madness and allow the people to receive what they are entitled to. I am tired of Congress manipulating the welfare of the American people, and causing more damage than good to the citizen.

PASS ERIN’S LAW at the federal level. Erin's Law, is a bill that requires that children be educated by law in schools on sexual abuse in a child friendly manner, for the purpose of informing and protecting students from sexual abuse.

We, the students of Italian 101, section 015 have the following grievances: The cost of the textbook was disclosed, that being said, the access codes were not included in all textbooks (sealed without one), cornering many students into relying on purchasing the access code online at over 50% the cost of the almost $200 textbook. This access code allows for one semester of access to a very buggy learning program that will have to be purchased again next semester, making this financial entrapment. The Access code grants access to a less than useful interface that students have not even been able to use to the fullest of it’s miniscule capabilities due to an incompatibility issue with the school computers that the language department should have rectified prior to the beginning of the semester. Many students are familiar with the necessity to check for compatibility prior to installing/using a computer program/site for one's own personal use, so this great lapse in judgment, reminiscent of the Cuny First debacle, along with a failure to communicate the issue and the steps being taken to rectify it, give the impression of disrespect, rudeness and a general disregard for students that are serious about their academic careers. As students, and individuals who have or have not been through careers prior to returning to school, we have also noticed the obvious disregard for the professors who are doing their best to try to deal with this despite the lack of support from the language department. Some of us have been seen to do more to assist the professors than the Language Department has cared to do, Including and not limited to: 1. Giving the professors a run down of the materials needed to carry out their jobs 2. Explaining whom is responsible for providing students with a syllabus 3. Providing adequate Tech support 4. Carrying out necessary troubleshooting when a program or system requires rectification 5. COMMUNICATING the acknowledgement any of the above mentioned issues (or any other issue that may effect our student careers) and are working towards fixing it. (Thank you to all the students that offered their help, free of charge, despite that not being your responsibility and the fact that someone else is getting paid to do that…) The failure to communicate has also created a lapse in time that the students cannot regain. While many of us wanted to give this course a chance, it will now be costly for us to drop the course. This is not how the students should be rewarded for their patience with the language department. We, the students demand better communication from the Language department (the irony is flabbergasting!) and viable options to assist us in making the best choice for our academic careers.

This petition is about telling our elected representatives we are tired of their lack of concern for the average citizen. We are ready,willing,and able to hold them accountable to us for their irresponsible actions.

Staples.com advertised the Copic marker sets they sell at unusual low prices. People such as myself took advantage and ordered them accordingly. we were given an order number for our purchases. Staples, unlike companies Zappos and United Airlines, chose to not inform the customers of their mistake and cancelled orders without notification. No formal action from Staples executives has happened, but instead chose to not honor their prices they posted. they also claim to be fixing the issue, but the prices have stood on the site after making the claims of typographical error. Staples should follow in the footsteps of Zappos and United Airlines and take responsibility for their actions. They should honor the price and fulfill orders made. People are sick and tired of being misled with bait and switch tactics and Staples should honor their customers.

In 2008, I served on a jury that convicted a man of second degree murder. Two weeks ago, I received a long letter from the convicted felon. He obtained my name and subsequently, "through a personal investigator friend", my home address. What was meant to be an important commitment to civic duty, has turned into a deeply stressful situation and fear for my family's safety. This convicted murderer should have never been able to obtain my name.

Article 1 Section 1 of North Carolina's Constitution - specifically guarantees us the Right of “acquiring, possessing, and protecting, property“ and “Equality of rights under the law“? A county should not be able to (legally) discriminate against one group of its citizens by taxing them for the same behavior as another group of its citizens not subject to the tax!
