The people of Nebraska want to be able to produce their own power by tapping on Nebraska's abundant natural resources. LB557 and LB598 would create opportunities for Nebraskans to invest and own shares in medium-size renewable community energy projects. Renewable sources are solar, wind, methane, and biomass. These bills reinforce our public power structure and Governor Heineman’s vision to ensure that Nebraskans have reliable, affordable and cleaner energy in the future (as he recently said in an interview). Developing “Community Solar Garden” projects and raising the net-metering threshold from 25kw to 100kw will encourage private investment in energy projects, adoption of innovative technologies, creation of new economic development, and help our public power utilities diversify their energy portfolio. These bills are fiscal neutral and do not add a dime to the deficit. Nebraskans welcome renewable energy in the state without putting a burden on taxpayers. The bills only remove provisions and send a message that says: "Nebraska is NOW open for business."

The proposals to ban trade in used electronics between rich and poor have had a perverse effect. Poor nations have more pressing things to worry about than "e-waste". They are better off purchasing working and repairable electronics from rich people than they are being outlawed from the trade.

The American people contribute their tax dollars to social security and medicare everytime they collect a paycheck or file their quarterly taxes if self employed. Our government collects a paycheck and huge benefits because of our tax dollars. If the American people have their benefits cut, our legislature should have their own benefits cut to the same level.

The man claims that taking part in and watching MMA is the same as taking part in and watching child porn. This man does not have the mental capacity to be a leader/voice in our government. He needs to be removed from office.

My friends and I are what people would consider an "Art Head", which a person that is very serious about an art or talent. There are many kids in my school (Carver school of the Arts, which is located in Atlanta, GA) that are not serious and are holding people back. We need our auditions back.

Until recently, Tiberias on 34th Street had a takeout menu that included paninis. When eaten in the restaurant, the panini was served with chips and salad, and was double the price. For a student living on a small budget, the take out option was the only option. Now, without notice, Tiberias has instituted a policy that after 6PM, all paninis come with a small salad and chips and will cost double what they used to.
