The patty is precooked, frozen and later reheated. When first introduced, packets of a special McRib barbecue sauce called \\\"Blazing Hot Sauce\\\" were available with the sandwich. This sauce was much hotter than the barbecue sauce on the prepared sandwich and was only available for a short time. When the McRib was brought back as a \\\"specialty\\\" sandwich, the sesame seed roll was often replaced with a standard hamburger bun; this was sometimes called the McRib Jr http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/suzukijimnyusa/ Thu, 5 Nov 2009 12:0:11 CST Let us all cyber-gather with a stated purpose -- to persuade Suzuki to resume importing the Jimny 4x4 (Samurai) to the United States! Perfect, economic size ... cute sporty chick demeanor ... a scale that mocks American excess: We have gone on too long without this noble beast of burden, which has been tooling around the narrow-roaded Asia and Europe for decades. And putting it back for sale here in the United States will say to our international brethren -- we want to invite you back to America by providing you with proper transportation. We no longer live in Sadness Valley. We are ready to re-join the world. Join the cause today! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Releaseit/ Wed, 4 Nov 2009 23:0:06 CST Michael Jackson released a perfume only to be sold on tv, but the sales abruptly ended due to the molestation charges. I think they should re-release the perfumes, it would make great sales (just think of all his fans) Sign if you want the perfume to be re-released \\\"So dangerous, it\\\'s not available in stores,\\\" the voiceover says, in a tribute to Jackson\\\'s album at the time, Dangerous. \\\"Let Michael Jackson stir your senses like never before, with \\\'Mystique de Michael Jackson\\\' for women and \\\'Le Jan de Michael Jackson for men\\\' - two dangerously seductive scents.\\\" http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/freetheb/ Wed, 4 Nov 2009 12:0:20 CST IRS rules and regulations, while well intentioned have followed the law of unintended consequences and created a mess that we refer to as the 403(b). In the name of compliance, school districts throughout the United States are spending millions of dollars to attempt to comply with regulations that add no value to the participants retirement balance. We believe in compliance and urge the IRS to Free the 403(b) from its current regulatory shackles. Our goal is to create a compliance regime where the IRS grandfathers all 403(b) contracts as of a specific date (say 12/31/2010) and require compliance on a go-forward basis. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/boycottaltadis/ Tue, 3 Nov 2009 13:0:47 CST 111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/10percent/ Tue, 3 Nov 2009 07:0:44 CST I pledge to shift 10% of my purchases to local, independent businesses in Galway. 5 Reasons: 1. You’ll be protecting the unique character and diversity of Galway\'s vibrant shopping districts. 2. The money you spend in the area supports local jobs and wages and improves the well-being of your community. Three times more money stays in the local community when you shop local than when you shop at a chain shop. 3. You become part of a chain of people making local decisions affecting local people. 4. Local shops spend more money on local charities. 5. Local businesses are more likely to be environmentally sustainable, especially those with local supply chains. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/freepolicewashes/ Mon, 2 Nov 2009 22:0:35 CST Since September of 2009, Mikes Carwash has retracted its offer of free express carwashes to police after 7:00 pm. They blame rising water costs and rising minimum wage as the cause. Then they go and start a promotion soon after where you are eligible for a free wash (works wash, choice wash, and express wash) and give away a free month of unlimited (up to $70 a month free). Are they trying to tell us that we are losing money with a free express wash (a maximum of five a night), but not losing money giving away free works and express washes and giving away a free $70 a month? Sign the petition to get Mikes to rethink the policy of the brave men and women of our police force! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/mzrobinson/ Mon, 2 Nov 2009 11:0:47 CST This petition is for everyone who thinks minimum wage should be raised because of the economy\'s lost of jobs or not paying enough or not having enough to support yourself or familly. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/sperman/ Fri, 30 Oct 2009 20:1:20 CDT This game combine shooter and rpg. I like it! please i play it! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/msripoff/ Thu, 29 Oct 2009 00:1:11 CDT I am starting this petition over the Microsoft Xbox 360 game console. On October 28th, 2009, an automatic update was released via Xbox Live on the Xbox 360 that dropped support for third party memory cards and added support for a wireless N network adapter. First off, the third party memory card support should not have been dropped. Xbox 360 users should have every right to use any memory card device that they paid for, regardless of who manufactured it. Furthermore, I believe that any memory device should be fully allowed because none of the third party memory cards allowed people to cheat or manipulate games in any way. As a matter of fact, the only way games were manipulated and allowed people to cheat through were Microsoft\'s own Xbox 360 hard disk drive and hard drive drive transfer cable. Microsoft has a clause in their term of use that states the following: 13. SERVICE OPERATION AND EQUIPMENT The Service may only be accessed with an original Xbox, an Xbox 360 console, a personal computer, or by logging into your account via Xbox.com. You agree that you are using authorized software and hardware to access the Service, and that your software and hardware have not been modified in any unauthorized way (e.g., authorized repairs, upgrades and downloads). Any attempt to disassemble, decompile, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, modify, further sublicense, distribute or use for other purposes either the hardware or software associated with an original Xbox or Xbox 360 console or the Service, is strictly prohibited and may result in cancellation of your account and/or your ability to access the Service, and the pursuit of other legal remedies by Microsoft. Microsoft may take any legal action it deems appropriate against users who violate Microsoft\'s systems or network security or this contract or any additional terms as described in Section 2 above, and such users may also incur criminal and/or civil liability. First off, this statement is very broken. It does not prohibit the use of third party memory devices. It states that you only have to \"access the service using authorized software and hardware.\" Memory cards are not used to access their \"service\", but to manage one\'s own personal data from games. Secondly, they mention www.xbox.com. If I use any web browser beside Microsoft\'s Internet Explorer, am I using \"unauthorized\" software to access their \"service\" with? Like the memory card, the web browser example can be applied in the same way. Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome are not \"Microsoft Authorized\" software, but we are allowed to access their website with it. Lastly, one last example of this clause. What if I am using a Linksys adapter to connect to Xbox Live with instead of the Xbox 360 Wireless gaming adapter? Am I using an unauthorized device to connect to the internet with?! Getting into further detail, one can see how ridiculous this clause is. This clause is very broken and it does not state that one cannot use third party memory cards. The only people who are saying it does is Microsoft, and that is because they want to profiteer off of their own over priced memory cards. This petition demands the Microsoft releases a new update for the Xbox 360 that will allow third party memory cards and devices, and that signers of this petition will not buy the Microsoft memory devices. Lastly, this petition is also again the overpriced upcoming Microsoft Wireless N Network Adapter. This petition demands that Microsoft drops the price of the adapter to a fair $50.00 to $60.00 USD price range, based of research of network adapters sold from other companies. The hardware is highly overpriced, due to the fact that research shows that you can buy a wireless N router to connect to the internet with for the same price as the adapter itself! If you agree with any of the demands of this petition, please sign it. To Microsoft, your outrageous actions against your loyal customers will not be tolerated no longer. I will personally send this petition to Microsoft upon 10,000 signatures, and I will ensure that a higher executive at Microsoft reads it. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/tmobilescam/ Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:1:21 CDT Tmobile has become one of the worst carriers of the telecom world. The customer service is horrible. Recently they have offered new plans that would save my family a great amount of money. The scam is that if you are a current customer you cannot change to these plans. First we were told we could not change for two years. Then they offered us a \"deal.\" we could change if we pay $400! In this economy this is ridiculous. This is just the tip of the iceburg with the problems we have had with Tmobile. This petition is to let Tmobile know that we as customers will not put up with this greed and nonsense. Please I need everyone that has a bad experience with Tmobile to post. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/MacbookProbattery/ Wed, 28 Oct 2009 06:1:04 CDT The Apple Macbook Pro 17\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" is an excellent machine, but - there are at least two problems that I, and many others have experienced that appear to be a definite design flaw. One is the power transformer that after a short time completely wears out the cable at entry to the unit. I have replaced mine 4 times and I take great care to rewind the cable after use EVERY time - that has cost me over 400 euros over 2 years. The other problem is the battery unit which expanded so much that it almost exploded in the computer. The people I spoke to in Apple France say that this is normal \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"wear & tear\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" - A battery exploding - I don\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t think so! I can accept that a battery can lose it charge after a certain number of cycles - but exploding is something else. There are many posts on Internet regarding this problem and Apple have apparently changed their supplier for these batteries but have failed to recognise that this is in fact a design fault - which, to my mind is totally unacceptable for a computer that costs as much as the Macbook Pro 17\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" costs. I was directed from Apple service to this place - no names givven just an email address who even ignore my messages and totally do not communicate - I think they call themselves customer services ! See for yourself the pictures and decide whether this is in fact, \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Normal Wear & Tear\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\". Thank you for signing this petition. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/getajobunder12Get/ Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:1:49 CDT I believe that children need a job if you are 12 or older. find more info at www.kidzcorner.weebly.com for more info.

We are currently re-negotiating our contract with our parent organization BRIC (Brooklyn Information and Culture), a non-profit serving the borough of Brooklyn with free speech television programming, a performance space, music performance in Prospect Park, and a contemporary art gallery. In these tough economic times, we realize our need for job security and provision of health coverage for our families to be paramount over all other issues. Anyone who works for a living deserves to have these basic life needs met without having to worry about how they are going to pay for medical bills when a family member gets sick. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/bcatworkers/ Sun, 25 Oct 2009 16:1:17 CDT The BCAT Media Center located near downtown Brooklyn, New York employs approximately 25 people represented by the NABET-CWA Local 11.

Recently that was shown not to be the case. Schools in our district are doing their best to enusre our childrens safety, unforchantley there is nothing in place to inform us of any incident that may arise. Recent incidentes have left us uninformed and left us with unkowns. Teacher and principles can only do so much, their main goal is to teach and protect our children. Although they are doing a great job, the school district isn\'t giving them the appropiate tools to better inform us. School\'s in surrounding districts do have the tools in place, we are larger and with more students in our school\'s. That means more parents to inform, and yet no parent is. We as parents, friends and neighbor\'s need to demand that something be in place, for our childrens safety and our piece of mind. I have talked to several parents who live in surrounding towns that are in school\'s with emergency response systems in place. They receive messages of emergencies, school delays, absent notices and it,s in the principles vioce. This has been found to be very informative for them. If anything happenes they are notified right away, they dont have to worry that they don\'t know what is happening with their children at all times. Our school district has promised to look into such a system for our children\'s school. To ensure that this gets real attention i formed this petition to show the school district that we want to know whats going on at all times. We need to step up and demand this for our school\'s, for our piece of mind. Theres is nothing like pulling up to you small childs school and seeing SWAT team, Police and barracades. Alot of us didn\'t know the situation, and had no idea when they would lift the lock down\'s. School phones where jammed and the school\'s had no tools to notify us. Parent\'s where worried when their children didn\'t return home from school, some situations provented parent\'s from getting near the school. Some children from other school where repeating rumors and parent\'s where in panic because they where ill informed. The system they use in Derry, NH is something called AlertNOw. This system is used all over the country and is really reliable. It requires no new technology and exra phone lines. www.AlertNow.com Please help in getting such a system by signing this petition. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/shoplocalgalway/ Sat, 24 Oct 2009 08:1:48 CDT I pledge to shift 20% of my purchases to local, independent businesses in Galway. 5 Reasons: 1.

Paterson is wastfully spending our dollars. Stop it now! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/MdFilm/ Sat, 17 Oct 2009 19:1:14 CDT The signers of this petition are asking Governor Martin O\'Malley and the Maryland Legislature to revisit the concept of tax breaks to attract movie production to Maryland. This is not to take money away from existing, non-film related state programs, as some misguided people have been led to believe. This is to offer competitive tax credits to incoming business that serves out film production community and all of the secondary and tertiary businesses in Maryland. Actors and production and postproduction people and facilities are obvious receivers of this windfall. But please don\'t forget our lumber and metal shops, hotels, motels, gas stations, dry cleaners, laundries, delivery services, print services, vehicle rental, restaurants, waitstaff, cooks, bus personnel, local retail and wholesale food sales, coffee shops, hardware stores, clothing stores. In fact, there aren\'t many businesses that don\'t benefit. These are the real, cash in hand benefactors. In Washington, DC, the Capitol of our nation, we have already seen millions of dollars pulled out of the production market by NY production facilities who raided production and postproduction facilities in DC, VA and MD who produce political commercials. Better deals pulled the work to New York. Facilities in DC, VA and MD went out of business. Do we really want that to happen state-wide? It almost has. Why do we have a government film commission and at the same time have the Governor and Legislature strip them of what they need to attract profitable business? Why not just put up barricades to stop all film production companies, their representatives and assigns at our borders and tell them they are not welcome here, or charge them a special \"film maker toll\" for entering the state? In effect, that\'s just what we\'re doing. Maryland\'s forsaken motto, \"America In Miniature\", designed to attract people to the state sadly has been forgotten. Where is the spirit that created that motto? The intrinsic value of this region so poignantly captured by those three words now falls on deaf ears in Maryland Government. That\'s just plain wrong. We, the undersigned citizens of the Free State, want this onerous and life-threatening behavior stopped and smart incentives restored and adjusted to attract film business to the state. Sooner rather than later. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopbankingreed/ Thu, 15 Oct 2009 22:1:09 CDT Are you an Agent that is frustrated by Bank Short Sales taking too long to be accepted?

Read this Blog from a Real estate Consultant on the Active Rain website that found out a pretty hair-raising agreement between the FDIC and OneWest bank formerly known as IndyMac.... http://activerain.com/blogsview/1243528/is-the-fdic-killing-short-sales- Once you read this you should feel like we the hardworking taxpayers have been bamboozled! I am sure there are a lot more stories like this out there and will continue to happen. We need to stand up just like we did to elect the current President in office! We cannot keep allowing big banks like this to bring America and it\'s Citizens to their knees. Tell everyone you can think of and sign this petition or make your own to help get this word out.

This week, after many blurry, somewhat half-ass updates, T-Mobile released an update that stated that prepaid users have to refill their accounts in order to receive a 10$ credit and possible data recovery, while the T-Mobile users with a contract will receive a 100$ dollar credit along with a free month of service at NO CHARGE. Does this seem fair to you? T-mobile definitely took money from my account while it was partially functional... why should I have to pay to maybe get everything back when they\'re the ones who are outsourced and unreliable? http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/ArchiOralExam/ Wed, 14 Oct 2009 17:1:07 CDT There is a strong grass-roots movement by Architects, Underwriters, Professors, even students who abhor the notion that the tradition and write-of-passage of the Architectural Oral Exam has been distilled to a \\\"puppet\\\" multiple choice test in its place. As such, NCARB should be re examining its position on this decision as there are many NCARB \\\"big wigs\\\" (and much in-fighting at the NCARB level) about the decision to do away with the orals and they should strongly be considering reversing their decision. Support the integrity of your profession and sign this petition in support of keeping the final examination for architecture licensing as it was. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/ArchOralExam/ Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:1:50 CDT There is a strong grass-roots movement by Architects, Underwriters, Professors, even students who abhor the notion that the tradition and write-of-passage of the Architectural Oral Exam has been distilled to a \\\"puppet\\\" multiple choice test in its place.

There isn\\\'t that many places that have layaway. Wal-mart had the best layaway plan overall so if i can get to get people to sign then we might can make a difference. please sigh thank you so much!! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/pdaphonedesign/ Tue, 13 Oct 2009 21:1:40 CDT The phone market, especially in the United States, is absolutely slammed with proprietary practices, which is absolutely horrible for the consumer. Practices aside, we are starving for a phone/PDA that doesn\'t fall victim to the iPhone mindset of \"invincible\" touchscreen antics and \"moving part\" fatigue. The iPhone\'s \"touchscreen only\" approach is not acceptable for any modern worker needing a physical keyboard (which implies a \'portrait\' mode QWERTY layout) while having any moving parts, such as a slide-out keyboard, immediately limits the lifespan of the device. By signing this petition, I would purchase a phone that has two sides (and consequently, no moving parts): one that is a full HD-quality widescreen touch display, while the other is a portrait-style QWERTY display that allows for non-visual touch-typing. Other requirements would include a Google Android operating system, an open-source platform that enables free customization of the system and interface of your phone. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/PDSLBONCN/ Tue, 13 Oct 2009 20:1:04 CDT Dexter\'s labotroary seems like a good show & for some reason they put on boomerang + they never showed it on Ch.54 (CARTOONNETWORK) & so I want to see it on Ch.54 so if you want on their so please SIGN UP TODAY OR WHENEVER!!!!!!!! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/onlinebangladesh/ Mon, 12 Oct 2009 00:1:51 CDT Why anybody can not buy online/Internet from Bangladesh ?Also , Paypal account can not be open from Bangladesh.
