I want to know what is in our food. I care about my families health and I'm sure you do. We should have the right to decide for ourselves if we want to eat Genetically Modified Organisms or NOT.

The 2nd amendment is critical to a free society. Even the FBI has agreed that more gun control will accomplish nothing.

Plastic bags have a high cost on the health of our environment and ourselves. They drift through our streets and end up in our water, where they form massive plastic structures and degrade into a microscopic form that winds up in our bodies or our food, adversely affecting our endocrine systems. While a plastic bag tax may seem like an imposition it would actually help encourage people to reduce their plastic dependency and the money it raises could directly fund bioremediation projects across the country and the globe.

I am sick and tired of all of the blaming that goes on in the US Congress.

Yale University has plans to partner with the Department of Defense to create a military interrogation training center that would use immigrants as test subjects. The plan specifically calls for test subjects that are “someone they [soldiers] can’t necessarily identify with, ”specifically “Moroccans, Columbians, Nepalese, Ecuadorians and others.” Lumping people of color in a category as out-of-the-norm folks who soldiers (many of whom are immigrants themselves) can’t identify with? And then using them as test subjects to test out war techniques? It is outrageous that the university would consider such a highly offensive plan. Dean Robert Alpern and other Yale leaders who are considering this proposal care a lot about the university’s public image. Yale depends on alumni for funding and already some former students have threatened to stop making donations after they heard about the center. If thousands of us sign this petition, the media will take notice and Dean Alpern will be forced to rethink this highly offensive plan.

"I hate illegals" is just some of what 18-year-old undocumented student Jessica Bravo was greeted with after she made an appointment with her congressman, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher. Rep. Rohrabacher also made a veiled threat to deport her, saying he "knows where she lives." Speaker of the House John Boehner has being trying to revamp the Republican Party's image with Latino voters after an election season full of hateful rhetoric like Rep. Rohrabacher's. What happened to Jessica Bravo is exactly the kind of thing House Speaker Boehner wouldn’t want in the media. We need 10,000 people to sign so we can do an in-person delivery to let Boehner and the Republican party know they can't have it both ways: loving Latinos and hating Latinos. If enough of us pressure Boehner, he will be forced to publicly condemn Rep Rohrabacher’s actions, and we’ll be able to spread Jessica Bravo’s story.

I recently started working as an office assistant in a growing company. We rent an office space in the ASU research park in Tempe. During my first week I experienced a bit of a “culture shock” one might call it. At home and at school I am accustomed to recycling absolutely everything that is recyclable, however here in the office everything is thrown away. We generate so much paper, I can only guess at the total amount, but I would estimate that it is at the very least 100 pounds a day just from our one office (there are about a dozen other businesses with offices in our building and a few dozen buildings in the research park.) I would say that perhaps 90% - 95% of what we throw away in our office is recyclable and about 80% of that is either paper or cardboard. The only thing that is not recyclable is probably food waste from lunch breaks. In an office like ours, or any other the other offices in the building, we could probably have only one trash can for the whole office and put recycling bins in place of all the other current trash cans. I discussed the serious need for a recycling program with a couple other employees who expressed frustration and concern about the extreme waste and the detrimental effects on our planet. I learned that they had already attempted to instigate a recycling program; they did the research and brought it to the building management. Even though instigating such a program would be free and cost the building management nothing-- they declined the request. For a while, the two of them work on their own, collecting the days recycling and transporting it in their own vehicles to a recycling center, but due to the sheer volume of paper and other recyclables generated by this office, they were forced to abandon their efforts—it had become too much. I took up the cause, delving into the government internet websites for Arizona and the City of Tempe. I found out that, yes, it would be free for the building management to add a recycling program “If you receive City of Tempe trash service there is no charge for the weekly recycling collection service. For a limited time we will provide recycling containers at no charge.” (http://www.tempe.gov/index.aspx?page=1009) I tried to look in to laws and regulations about commercial and business recycling. The only laws I found pertain to what can and what cannot be recycled. I would like to propose a petition that would make it mandatory for the property owners and/or management of all corporate offices and commercial enterprises to make a recycling program available to their tenants or employees upon request.

Dennis Barrett, the Director of Food services for the LAUSD, needs to investigate the firing of our friend, Tamise Ross, from the Downtown Magnets High School Cafeteria. Her supervisor and the teachers of the school have signed a letter stating that we believe she was unjustly fired!

We now know that this child was NOT 3 years old when she was raped, but 2 years old. The adopted mother of the 2 year old rape victim was denied an incident report as the Athens-Clarke County stated that there was NOT one; however, years later she has obtained a copy of the report which proves that this child was AT LEAST 2 years old when raped. No arrests have been made to date. Please assist this child by signing the petition, forwarding the petition and reviewing the case at the following link: http://www.wedemandjustice.blogspot.com

I have become disabled by a disease that started by a tick bite 15 years ago. I have learned that my case is not unique and that Lyme disease is an epidemic in our country that is caught in a medical -politically motivated nightmare. Thousands are needlessly suffering and dying from lack of medical care.

When the Florida legislature returns for the regular 2013 session (March 5, 2013 – May 3, 2013) it will again consider proposed legislation (Senate Bill 126 and House Bill 79) to require that mammography reports include a statement disclosing breast density. Depending on a woman’s risk factors, being informed of the presence of dense breast tissue affords the opportunity to seek additional testing and possibly early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.
