			<title>No new tolls for drivers entering Manhattan</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/NoNewTollManhNYC/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 12 Dec 2003 07:0:37 CST</pubDate>
			<description>With the recent proposals made to reduce traffic in the business district in lower Manhattan, many residents view this as nothing more but a regressive tax. People will still have to drive to work from the other boroughs. New York City should not charge its residents any more new tollage into going through or to lower manhattan.</description>

			<title>Don\&#039;t Vote in the 2008 Election</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/dontvote08/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 12 Dec 2003 07:0:37 CST</pubDate>
			<description>Dear United States of America,

The year is 2008 and I have come to the sad realization that our government no longer represents the interests of the people.  The economy is in the tank.  Gas prices are at a record high - as well as oil company profits.  Housing market is down.  Everywhere I hear politicians telling the nation, &quot;my plan is the answer&quot;.  But unfortunately in times like these I can't believe anything I hear.  Every word out of every politician, reporter, and journalists mouth is tainted.  Everyone has an agenda.  How is one person supposed to tell the difference between a truth and a lie?  Can we even make that distinction any more?  Every day there is a new &quot;study&quot; telling me the exact opposite of what I was told yesterday.  Which is right?  Who funds these studies?  Who do I believe? 

McCain or Obama?

Fellow Americans, I can't in good conscience make vote for either of these candidates or any of the politicians running for re-election in a major party.  As I said before, I don't have any belief in in their ability to serve the needs of the citizens of the United States.  So I'm not going to vote.  Join me.</description>

			<title>Claydor Speed Control</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/claydorspeed/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 12 Dec 2003 07:0:37 CST</pubDate>
			<description>Ever had a close call on Claydor Drive?  Have you ever wondered how fast the cars are actually traveling?  Me too, so when the city engineer offered to perform a traffic count I took him up on the offer.

In one 24 hour period Claydor had 113 vehicles traveling between 35 and &amp;quot;75 mph plus&amp;quot;.  There were 17 traveling over 45 mph, and 2 traveling over 75 mph.

Each year between 4800 and 6200 pedestrians are killed in the US by motor vehicles.  In 2006 it was 5600, about average.  Compare that to the number killed in motor vehicle collisions, usually under 20,000 a year.  In 2006 there were about 18,500 (not inlcuding motorcyclists).

Comparing the average miles driven per year (11,000 to 15,000) to the average miles walked per year in traffic, it\'s clear you are far more likely to be killed as a pedesrian than as a motor vehicle occupant.  If you walk 300 miles a year, and drive 15,000, you are over 15 times more likely to die as a pedestrian.

Also of note is the death rate versus the survival rate for pedestrians actually struck by a motor vehicle.  If the motor vehicle is traveling 46 mph or more (17 per day on Claydor) the death rate is 36.1%, the incapacitating injury rate is 33.7% and healthy survivors make up only 30.2 percent.

Compare that to the survival rate at Detroit Receiving Hospital (1980 to 1997) from stab wounds to the heart: 58%.  I think I would rather walk the mean streets of Detroit than walk on Claydor Drive.

With 6 million motor vehicle wrecks a year and a total of 35,000 to 40,000 non-pedestrian, non-motorcycle fatalities, the death rate is a very low 0.625 percent.  The overall rate of pedestrians killed after being struck by cars at speeds from 1 mph and up is 6.5%, over 10 times higher than that of car occupants.

Sign this petition today and vote for speed cameras, speed bumps, &amp;quot;No Through Traffic&amp;quot; signs, or traffic islands.

Add any comments, such as if you are willing and able to contribute to the expense of having a gated community.

See the National Safety Council and the World Almanac for motor vehicle statistics.
See www.NHTSA.dot.gov for pedestrian fatality rates.
See http://www.aast.org for more details on trauma surgery.</description>

			<pubDate>Mon, 8 Mar 2004 18:0:17 CST</pubDate>
			<description>of all the morons i hear speak on television only one person has showb the utter intelligence and intuition it takes to do what is right for the people and not just for their own wallet.  George Carlin has been speaking against political practice, though in a comedic forum, for decades. he knows, as do we all deep down, that our present form of government, including the political parties themselves, are a crock. they profit only themselves and only the public can change it.  but it must be on a large scale. 2 or 3 people or even 2-300 people won&#39;t do.  everyone must search within and without for the truth that we are not being supported and the government is not really ours.  so instead of voting for the parties fill in that little ballet in writing above the punch keys are write the name &quot;George Carlin.&quot;  hes goota be better than the other georges.....</description>

			<title>******Stop the occupation in Palestine******</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/Palestine/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 30 Mar 2004 16:0:40 CST</pubDate>
			<description>    Some peole may not know that there is war going on in Palestine. So let me fill you in the Isreali troups cam in 1954 to evacuate our homes. Lots of peole were living there and yet the british knew this and still promised land to the Jews. The Jews soon claimed palestine and called it Isreal. Now the kids in Palestine can&#39;t even get to school. It is so dangerous that when one person walks on the streets they could get killed. The whole country has a curfew. 

   You also probably heard of Hamas. Let me make this stright Hamas is not a terrorist group as said on TV. Hamas defends Palestine in anyway it can. 

   Some peole in this country are so fed up with the jews they throw rocks at the soldier, most peole who throw these rocks are kids at the ages 4-6. There are also some cases that go even to suicide bobings. That is the most damge they can do to these soldiers with guns.

   America should also be blamed for this because it supports Isreal in attacking peole. Isreal attacks people that are crippled and old. For example Ahmed Yassen as you may or may not have heard on the news. Ahmed was the leader of the Hamas group and was recently killed. Ahmed was a crippled old man very defensless. 


This is something that most be stopped!!!!!!!!!! You amy feel useless but this petition might help you think that you are helping the people of Palestine.

			<title>Keep Bush Out of Office</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/nomorebush/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 30 Mar 2004 19:0:20 CST</pubDate>
			<description>Bush became president but under &quot;strange&quot; circumstances.
Bush appears to have had prior knowledge of the 911 bombings.  
Bush seems to have launched a war based on fictional WMDs.
Bush has soldiers falling for the money that indirectly fills his pockets.
Bush is letting people suffer with cuts to health care and thousands of jobs.
Bush is free to come into our homes and into our private lives - you gave him that freedom as a result of his scare tactics.
What happened to the separation of church and state?
When election time comes, too many of you will forget all of the bad things Bush has done and vote the old fogey back in. He will win you over again with some act of heroism.  Lest we forget.
Show the world that the United States is united - united against Bush and his tactics to alienate Americans from the rest of the world.</description>

>Bob Peters&#39;s recent article on the link between pornography and violent sex crime is now available in PDF.  Recent reports by law enforcement indicate that hardcore pornography is driving violent sexual acts that are more violent, vicious and despicable than in the past.
>
>It is clear that anecdotal evidence supports the notion that access to and use of pornography has an impact on future criminal activity.  In a study of 36 serial killers conducted in the 1980&#39;s, 29 of these killers were attracted to pornography and incorporated it into their criminal sexual activity.

>Vernon Geberth in his book &quot;Sex-Related Homicide and Death Investigation&quot; offers evidence in case after case of the connection between pornography and violent sexual criminal behavior.  Sexual predators use hardcore pornography as a sort of road map for the crimes that they commit.  Hardcore pornography reinforces the deviant fantasy and the next step for these predators is to act out what is seen in the pornographic images.  Geberth does not set out to make a link between pornography and violent sexual crimes.  But nevertheless it is there.
>
>We want to encourage you to read the entire article, so that you can go into your community and fight the growing tide of obscene, pornographic images that are affecting your lives today.  As pornographic material becomes more mainstream, we will continue to see cases like that of the University of Colorado, were seemingly good kids participate in sexual violent crime.  We must begin to get the word out about the dangerous impact of pornography on our culture.

			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/leaveiraq/</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 16 Apr 2004 23:1:11 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>I am an ex-Marine and recently got out of the military.  I truly believe that we made a mistake invading Iraq.  Yes, we did a great thing by ousting Saddam, but the fact is that we&#39;ve only shown that we are rather incompetant by our failing occupation of that country.  We&#39;ve lost more Americans since the fighting stopped.  The Iraqis do not want us there, so let&#39;s just leave the savages to their own devices, or at least hand the reins over to the U.N. and bring out people home.  Why should they, many of whom are my friends, sacrifice their lives any longer for a country that doesn&#39;t even want our help?  Admit you made a mistake Mr. Bush and bring our people home.

And for those of you who may be thinking that I&#39;m saying we should abandon the country to a Taliban/Al Queda rule, you need to read the above paragraph again.  Basically, what I&#39;m trying to say is that these people do not want us there and will continue to kill more and more Americans just to prove their point.  I think it would just be better to hands the reins of the rebuilding to the U.N.  I&#39;m sure that the needless killings will not cease.

Look, we went into this thing with the right intentions, but the plan was not properly thought out and now American soldiers, and, like I said, several of my friends, have paid the price for this administration&#39;s lack of foresight and stubborn attitude towards accepting help with their lives. 

If you don&#39;t like what I&#39;m saying here, I apologize, but I won&#39;t change my opinion.  And attacks against my opinion and intellect (and you know who you are) or that of any other person on this site are completely unwarranted and against the spirit of the site.</description>

			<description>Bush and his administrations reasons for war. 
Iraq posed an immediate threat to our Country 
possible connection between Al Qaeda and the now dissipated government of Iraq. 
Nope He lied about the threat of Iraq, he lied about the cost, and he lied about the expected outcome. He has violated the US Constitution and international law by attacking Iraq when it was not a threat to anyone. Iraq posed no danger to the U.S. or any of its allies. As of April 2004, no weapons of mass destruction had been found in Iraq. 
And U.S. military occupying Iraq has not found any terrorists, weapons for terrorists, money for terrorists, Iraq&#39;s threatening fleet of unmanned drones about which we heard so much morphed into one prototype made of plywood and string. Their missiles proved to be outdated and of limited range. Their army was quickly overwhelmed by our technology and our well trained troops. They had No chance Now Our troops Did Capture Saddam Hussein a brutal dictator that showed disregard for basic human rights Who Tormented His People for years. That&#39;s it For the love of god they found the Bastard Hiding in the Ground! Now We went all the way over there for what ? Loss of life 
U.S. officials declared an end to major combat operations on May 1, 2003 During major combat a total of 171 coalition soldiers—138 Americans and 33 Britons—died during the major Combat, Seens then its gotten worse 700 + coalition soldiers, mostly Americans, have died and that was after major combat Ended, 2,000+ U.S. soldiers wounded in action Not Dimension the fact that thousands of Innocent civilian Iraqis were killed. 
who do we have to blame for all that ? The Bush administration. I Really Don&#39;t see how people can Defend all that, oh Honest Mistake NO they had No valid reason for starting this war. The American People were deliberately deceived into Believing that There was reason for War. Now before you start Defending Presidents Bush&#39;s Actions 
Take some time to Remember all those brave Men & Women that went overseas 
to fight for our Country  not Because they wanted to but because they had to and as their 
duty and Dedication to our Country they did what the leader of are country asked of them 
fought for Us Many of them paying the Ultimate Sacrifice their Lives. Brave people that 
that Deserve so much more Recognition, all Heroes in their own right. Now we can all give are personal Opinions on this issue we can debate on it, you either agree with Presidents Bush&#39;s Actions or disagree. It Doesn&#39;t Change the fact that Sadly a World away from here a War is going on and people are fighting and dying ,The Reality is nothing we do or say will change what&#39;s already happened. We can change the Future though 
with the Presidential Elections about 9 Months away hopefully Matters Concerning the war will Change in the Future if we get a New President.

Thank you for Reading this ^^ if you have any Q? Leave you Email Address Below and 
I will get back to you Asap 
______________________________________________

Please do not give Bush a Second Term  
Consider all the facts before you vote this November .
________________________________________________
 The Bush Administraton Has Failed us. 
 Heres a list of some of  Bush&#39;s Broken Promises:
 (These are Just Some theres a whole lot more)

   1. Promise
Bush Claimed Tax Cut Would Not Lead To A Deficit, Even With Bad Economy. During a speech at Western Michigan University advocating tax cuts, Bush promised that his plan would not lead to deficits. &quot;Tax relief is central to my plan to encourage economic growth, and we can proceed with tax relief without fear of budget deficits, even if the economy softens,&quot; Bush promised. [Bush Remarks at Western Michigan University, 3/27/01(emphasis added)]
Broken
Bush Budget Posted First Deficit Since 1997, Predicted Deficits Until 2005. In February 2002, Bush released his budget for fiscal year 2003, which included the first federal deficit since 1997. Bush&#39;s proposed budget would result in a $106 billion in deficit in FY 2002 and $80 billion in FY 2003. According to Bush administration estimates, the budget will not return to balance until FY 2005. Worse, an analysis of the Bush budget by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) predicted the deficits between FY 2002 and 2005 would be $62 billion larger than White House figures. [Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 2003, Table S-1; Budget of the United States Government, Fiscal Year 2003, Historical Tables, Table 1.1; CBO, An Analysis of the President&#39;s Budgetary Proposals for 2003, Table 1, 3/6/02]

2002 Deficit May Be $30 to $70 Billion Higher than Expected, GOP Budget Staff Director Questioned Bush&#39;s Commitment to Returning to Balance. The Washington Post reported that because individual tax receipts are running below projections, the deficit could be $30 billion to $70 billion higher than CBO&#39;s baseline estimate of the deficit for FY 2002, $46 billion. The baseline does not take into account expected new spending such as prescription drugs and national defense. G. William Hoagland, Republican staff director of the Senate Budget Committee, said the new numbers raise &quot;some concern about the president&#39;s commitment to get back to balance in 2004.&quot; [Washington Post, 4/26/02]

CBO Reported $4 Trillion Lower Surplus In Just One Year, Bush Tax Cut was Single Largest Reason. A January 2002 CBO report found that the ten-year surplus had shrunk by $4 trillion, from $5.6 trillion estimated in 2001 to $1.6 trillion. CBO concluded that the Bush tax cut was the single largest reason for the deterioration of the surplus. During testimony before the Senate Budget Committee, CBO Director Dan Crippen was directly asked if the Bush tax cut accounted for almost 42 percent of the loss of the surplus. &quot;Yes,&quot; Crippen replied. [CBO, Budget and Economic Outlook: Fiscal Years 2003-2012, 1/31/02, Summary Table 1; Crippen Testimony Before the Senate Budget Committee, 1/23/02]_____________________________________________

 2.Promise
Bush Promised to Stop Social Security Trust Fund Raid. George W. Bush repeatedly promised that Social Security payroll taxes would not be tapped for general government spending. During the campaign Bush promised, &quot;In my economic plan, more than $2 trillion of the federal surplus is locked away for Social Security. For years, politicians in both parties have dipped into the Trust Fund to pay for more spending. And I will stop it.&quot; In March 2001 he said, &quot;Another priority is retirement systems of Americans. And so the budget I set up says that payroll taxes are only going to be spent on one thing, and that&#39;s Social Security. But the Congress won&#39;t be using the payroll taxes for other programs. Lockbox, I think, is the terminology they like to use up here.&quot; [Bush Speech, Rancho Cucamongo Senior Center, &quot;A Defining American Promise,&quot; 5/15/00; Bush Remarks at National Newspaper Association 40th Annual Government Affairs Conference, 3/22/01]

Bush Budget Will Spend the Entire Social Security Trust Fund Over Next Two Years. The Wall Street Journal reported that Bush uses &quot;all the Social Security surpluses ... to fund the government for the next two years, and to spend well over $100 billion of Social Security funds in each of the following three years.&quot; [Wall Street Journal, 2/5/02]

Bush Raids Social Security Trust Fund of $1.6 Trillion. A House Budget Committee Democratic staff analysis of the Bush budget proposal found that over the next ten years $1.6 trillion of the Social Security Trust Fund is spent on other government operations. CBO found that without assuming any new spending — such as homeland security and prescription drug coverage for Medicare — the Social Security Trust Fund would be raided every year through FY 2009. After including Bush&#39;s spending proposals, CBO predicted a trust fund raid every year through 2012 and an on-budget deficit of $1.8 trillion.

Bush Was on Track to Breach Social Security Trust Fund Before September 2001. Contrary to Bush and Republican rhetoric that the terrorist attacks of September 11 forced the raid of the Social Security Trust Fund, CBO reported as early as August 2001 that Bush was due to tap the Trust Fund. CBO also said the Bush administration would raid the Trust Fund again in FY 2003 and 2004. USA Today reported, &quot;The White House is backing away from its pledge to protect every cent of Social Security reserves in the face of a report today that the government is tapping Social Security taxes for other programs.&quot; [Associated Press, 4/7/02; CBO, The Budget and Economic Outlook: An Update, August 2001; USA Today, 8/28/01]

Democratic Plan Stops the Bush Raid on Social Security. The Senate Democratic budget resolution implements a trigger that would stop the Bush raid on Social Security by FY 2008. According to the Senate budget resolution, &quot;if the Congressional Budget Office determines next January that the outlook has not improved and the Social Security trust funds are still in danger of being used for other than their intended purposes over the next decade, the Budget Committee will be required to report a budget plan that will return the budget to balance without Social Security within five years.&quot; [Senate Budget Committee, Text of the Report on Committee Passed Resolution, 3/20/02]

New York Times Editorial: Democrats Want &quot;Funds Generated By Social Security And Medicare Taxes To Be Set Aside And Used To Pay Down Debt.&quot; According to a New York Times editorial, &quot;The chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, Kent Conrad of North Dakota, is offering a different approach, which has attracted the interest of some Republicans. He wants funds generated by Social Security and Medicare taxes to be set aside and used to pay down debt. Mr. Conrad proposes a &quot;trigger&quot; in the budget, requiring Congress to adopt a five-year plan to wean the government off raiding the Social Security and Medicare trust funds for its regular expenses. The &quot;trigger&quot; may be a gimmick, but if it works in forcing some lawmakers to be responsible, we would welcome it.&quot; [Editorial, New York Times, 3/14/02]________________________________________________

Democrats&#39; Plan Pays Down More of the National Debt than Bush. The Senate Democratic budget resolution, at a minimum, pays down $233 billion more of the national debt than the Bush plan. The resolution also creates a reserve fund for spending on national defense. &quot;If the amounts in the defense reserve fund are not needed to meet unanticipated demands in the defense area, the plan would pay down $502 billion more in debt than the President&#39;s budget,&quot; the Senate Budget Committee said.

Democratic Approach to Paying Down the Debt Would Put the Nation in &quot;Better Financial Shape.&quot; The New York Times reported of the Senate budget resolution, &quot;Under their approach, Democrats said, the government would devote more of the temporary Social Security surplus toward reducing the national debt in the next 10 years, leaving the nation in better financial shape to pay retirement benefits to the baby boom generation in coming decades.&quot; [New York Times, 3/20/02]_______________________________________________

According to an analysis of the Bush education budget by the House Education and the Workforce Committee, &quot;Just one month ago, Congress and the President enacted the most important education reform legislation in 30 years. This bipartisan law is based on the principle that, with adequate resources, real reform is possible.

5.Promise
Bush Promised Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage for All Seniors. During the presidential campaign, Bush promised to provide prescription drug coverage for all 39 million Medicare recipients. &quot;Another priority of the federal government will be to have a Medicare system of which we can be proud, a Medicare system that will include prescription drugs for all seniors, a Medicare system that understands that some seniors have to choose between food and medicine.

Bush&#39;s Own Estimates Say His Plan Would Cover Only 3 Million Seniors. This year, by his own estimate, Bush&#39;s prescription drug plan fails to cover 7 million Medicare recipients. The White House estimated, &quot;Approximately 10 million seniors and persons with disabilities have no prescription drug coverage.&quot; Only those below 150 percent of poverty — $17,910 for a family of two — are eligible for Bush&#39;s plan. &quot;This proposal is expected to lead to coverage for up to 3 million Medicare beneficiaries who would otherwise not receive coverage until the Medicare drug benefit is fully implemented, which will require several years,&quot; the White House estimated. This year is the second in a row that Bush failed to detail a plan for all seniors. Once again, he merely issued &quot;principles&quot; under which they might receive coverage in the future.

			<title>Californians for safe rental units</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/coolapts/</link>
			<pubDate>Tue, 4 May 2004 03:1:15 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>Why does the state of California do nothing about the thousands of cases of preventable heat stroke that occur every summer? Why are people dying in their own homes of heatstroke? Why, when it is a hundred degrees in my apartment, is there nothing I can do to make my place of residence livable?

What is the problem? The problem is heatstroke, and how thousands are affected and hundreds die every year. 

Who does it affect? The people most likely to be affected by indoor heatstroke are children, the elderly, and the poor.

How does it affect them? Many housing units that are low income, or affordable housing, come without air conditioning units. The people who rent those units are unable for different reasons, (lack of money, needing to live close to work, nowhere else to go etc…), to just simple move to a unit with air conditioning. Also, even if the first family moves, with there being the dearth of affordable housing in the state of California, eventually someone will move into the unairconditioned unit. That person or family will have no place else to go. Because of the lack of temperature control in their unit these families are at risk of disease, sickness, and eventual death. The most visible affect of the extreme heat is heat stroke. 

What is my story? I currently pay $750 a month for a two bedroom unit in a fourplex in the city of Riverside Ca. I also pay all of my utilities, with the exception of water. This is my second summer in this unit. I can’t afford to move, I don’t have the money and there is no where in Riverside to go. My neighborhood isn’t the safest in Riverside either. The house next door, which has become over a dozen separate units,  has at least two drug dealers. Last week the top story had a fire set by one of the three children, or six adults in that upstairs unit. This burned unit is still be lived in. Even with all these neighborhood problems, this is the best I could get. 

	My house recently changed owners and the new owner has decided she doesn’t like air conditioners and doesn’t want any, not even the portable ones, installed on the property. She told me she feels it ruins the looks of her windows. She is also concerned that the older electrical system in the house could not support a unit. I can’t move, I don’t have the money and there is no where else to go. 
 
	Last summer I became ill on several occasions from the heat. I don’t look forward to another summer of shortness of breath, headaches and dizziness. But there is nothing I can do, the state of California doesn’t believe that landlords should be required to keep rental units below a certain temperature. I think I know a way to fix this problem.

So, what is my proposal? It is a simple one really, it is to place into the California housing code a provision that all rental units in California whose indoor temperature raises above 90 degrees be required to have a swamp cooler, window/wall air conditioner, portable air conditioner, or other equivalent cooling device installed that will keep the temperature at a non hazardous level. In cases where it is considered impossible to equip the unit with a cooling device, such as a home that has been established as a historic residence; or lack of access to electricity (homes that run from generators,) there should be a reduction in the rate that that residential unit can be rented for. I believe that, depending on the square feet of the residence, such a rent reduction could be based on the median price for rental units in that general area. Example: Median price for a two bedroom apartment in downtown Riverside, with street parking and only the water utility paid, is $700. A unit without air conditioning should be priced at 15% below market rate because of the inherent health concerns. The maximum rent that can be charged for the unit is $595. This law would make it more economical for landlords to provide their tenants with safe housing as they would only lose a few hundred dollars to install and maintain units rather then the loss of money every month. 

Why should the Governor consider this? To put it as the housing code says residents of a rental unit have the right to  &quot;quiet enjoyment of the premises.&quot; I don&#39;t know anyone who enjoys frying an egg on their kitchen floor, and we are certainly not going to be quiet about this anymore!
	What I want from the office of Governor is just a response to how he feels about people dying in their apartments. What is his response to children who can’t breathe because it is too hot to play outside, and too hot to play inside, too hot to breathe even. What is his response to the slum lords and opportunists who prey on people who are unable, for whatever reason, to move to a unit that does offer  the luxury of being able to breathe. My apartment is making me sick and there is no one I can go to for help. The state of California makes sure you can stay healthy at your job, does its care for my health stop at my front door?

Heat exhaustion occurs when a person cannot sweat enough to cool the body. It generally develops when a person is working or exercising in hot weather. Symptoms of heat exhaustion include fatigue, weakness, headache, dizziness, or nausea, and skin that is cool, moist, pale, or flushed. Mild cases of heat exhaustion can be treated at home.
Heat exhaustion can sometimes lead to heatstroke, which requires emergency treatment. Heatstroke occurs when the body fails to regulate its own temperature and body temperature continues to rise, often to 105 °F(40.56 °C) or higher. A person with heatstroke may stop sweating. Symptoms of heatstroke include confusion, delirium, or unconsciousness, and skin that is red, hot, and dry, even under the armpits. Heatstroke is a life-threatening medical emergency.
Classic heatstroke can develop without exertion when a person is exposed to a hot environment and the body is unable to cool itself effectively. In this type of heatstroke, the body&#39;s ability to sweat and transfer the heat to the environment is reduced. Classic heatstroke may develop over several days. Babies and older adults are most at risk. People with chronic health problems are also at risk.
Exertional heatstroke may develop when a person is working or exercising in a hot environment. A person with heatstroke from exertion may sweat profusely, but the body still produces more heat than it can lose. This causes the body&#39;s temperature to rise to high levels.
Both types of heatstroke cause severe dehydration and can cause body organs to stop functioning. Emergency medical treatment is needed to prevent death.

			<description>Petition: Established April 26, 2004 running through 01/2007


Partly out of fear of what God-less lives will inevitably do to this nation, as a whole for the futures of our children and their children, and partly out of the fear of the retribution our nation will inevitably suffer, as a whole, has brought us full circle in this venture.

1. Our children have been and are denied their God-given right to talk to God when they choose, regardless of location, due to removal of prayer from school.  Congress itself opens sessions with prayer.  Our courtrooms make us swear on a Bible to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.  We approve of Congressional prayer and of swearing truth on God’s word, but stand against the removal of Him and the teachings there in from the public square.  

 2.  Our pledge of allegiance is being challenged because we invoke our historic stance as a God built nation, in its very wording.  Please take a strong stand against the word removal “under God” on behalf of those who are citizens who believe strongly in our national fundamentals and the founding of our great nation.  
Congress needs to pass the following legislation that is currently in the works:  H.R. 3799 and S. 2082, the &quot;Constitution Restoration Act of 2004.&quot;  It is also imperative that new legislation in order to defend the original standing of the U.S. Constitution and protect the right of religious expression, and the free exercise of that religion be put into play immediately.  
The current travesty of justice whereby a federal judge removed from civic display in Alabama a Ten Commandments monument -- citing the spurious doctrine of &quot;separation,&quot; is a direct assault on the Constitution&#39;s guarantees of freedom of speech, the free exercise of religion, and freedom from federal interference in matters reserved to the people and the states.   We feel helpless, yet we know that we are guaranteed the right to petition government about this plight.  

This ruling is a blatant direct violation of the First Amendment&#39;s explicit prohibition against federal law &quot;respecting an establishment of religion,&quot; as it effectually establishes a national religion of atheism, and wrongly enforces federal judicial review of actions reserved to the people and the states.  Atheistic principles are not acceptable to any that sign below, and we beseech those that have an ear to let them hear that many citizens of this nation feel extremely strongly about this issue.  This federal encroachment also falsely and absurdly equates prohibition of any mention of God with &quot;neutrality&quot; toward religion. Such overt pro-atheistic hostility toward public religious expression is unconstitutional.   Therefore, since we know this, we come with our minds open to suggestion of what can be done.  

The federal judge in Alabama claimed government &quot;draws its powers from the people, and not God.&quot; Such atheist revisionism denies the truth of the Declaration of Independence: that it is to secure the unalienable rights endowed by our Creator that government exists. Repeatedly affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in recent years, the false doctrines that the First Amendment forbids establishment of religion, and that the Fourteenth Amendment applies this prohibition to the states, Must end now.  There is no time to waste, as things are getting more out of hand each day it seems.  Congress must put its foot down and put an end to the unconstitutional judicial revisionism and usurpations.  Congress has allowed the Judiciary to usurp its authority long enough, and to go unchecked would be the final straw in this travesty.  
 
The Framers of our Constitution most recognizably and clearly intended the First and Tenth Amendments to protect our free exercise of religion and other rights of conscience, and secure our liberty from a tyrannical government. It is essential that this kind of judicial arrogance must be halted, and that someone takes the stand to defend the right of religious displays and expression.  It is pertinent to save public expression and the rights of free exercise of Christian expression religion in our National creed.  It should not be offensive, but yet it has become that way, and we beseech you to mandate that because of lack of constitutionality that this will not continue.   It is imperative and must be upheld that the principles guaranteed to us as a nation and the citizens within, in both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States of America be restored.  This must happen so that we have the same rights established by the people for the people.  God must be allowed His place as was invoked in the beginning papers and we as citizens have the rights to keep Him there.  It is a necessity for the American people to be allowed to publicly acknowledge and to respect the authority of God our Divine Creator.  
3.   Judges are being challenged to eliminate the 10 commandments from Public Places and Government buildings in states across our nation, and it is apparent that little can seemingly be done.  They are responsible for protecting our religion freedom and our rights as citizens of this nation, yet their hands are being forced, and they are limited in their abilities in doing anything about it.  

It is with a heavy heart that we have watched the news only to hear each day, that yet another part of God and our nations moral fabric is being challenged in our national system or state systems across the nation.   

4.   God established family.  Adam and Eve were created to complement each other.  Their union symbolizes the path we as humans are supposed to take.  We as a society, from the very beginning have stood for and believed in this definition of family.  1 man + 1 woman = marriage = family which without medical intervention produce offspring, just as God intended.  

 5.   The wording on our currency in the US states, “In God We Trust,” is being challenged in some circles, and it is our fear that this will soon be hit upon heavily as well.  From what we gather there is litigation underway to challenge this already.  

 6.    As we all know, through the years there has been much controversy surrounding an issue that we are all familiar with called “Separation of Church and State.”  There is no such guarantee in our constitution.  There has been a statement by a government official that has been taken out of context on a continual basis.  The reality behind this is the actual invocation of these words as though they were also a guarantee, is really beyond comprehension.  Our forefathers did say that government could not establish a religion and force us to abide by it, but they also said that we had the right to be involved in religion and the free exercise thereof.  For years, we all have heard the Separation of Church and State Issues, yet we all can read for ourselves and can see the mishaps this is continuing to perpetrate against the very protections our nation has said it established for us.  

     We come here and sign together as a group to be recognized as US citizens with the established right to petition the US government about that which we feel affects us, and the nation, as a whole.  

     It is with sincere hope that these citizens have signed this petition.  We sincerely hope that these citizens will be heard, and that our government will hear what we will share.

     When 5000+ signatures are complete We will travel in person to Washington DC where we will stay until we get an agreement to be both seen and heard on behalf of the signatures within this petition.  Please understand that we do thank you for upholding your oaths of office, and that we respect the job you are doing.   Thank you also for continuing to take a stand for those like us so that defense of our God-given liberties and this Republic are continually provided.  

     Go with God, and May God Bless.

			<description>Mr. Martin,

In accordance with your statement of May 26,2004 as reported in the Ottawa Citizen:

“I’ve got a record of doing what I say I’m going to do and I’m telling you in this case, I’m going to do exactly what we’re saying we’re going to do.”

...we, your constituents, are formally calling upon you to honour a past commitment you made to Canadians and that was reported in the Montreal Gazette on April 4, 1990:

“I would abolish the GST.”

As you are now our Prime Minister, the authority needed to keep this promise -- abolishing the Goods and Services Tax -- is yours. 

You said it, and we&#39;re holding you to it.

Respectfully,

The Undersigned.</description>

			<description>I think it&#39;s only right that we, the great English public should have our own day, once a year to celebrate the greatest food of all .... SALAD.

America has Independence Day, Ireland have St. Patricks Day etc and it&#39;s only right that England should have Salad Day.

I propose this to be 6th June, the day of the Salad. </description>

			<title>Petition to Sec Rumsfeld to Ignore the Petition Created by David Brock</title>
			<link>http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/StopMediaMattersforAmerica/</link>
			<pubDate>Sat, 19 Jun 2004 05:1:37 CDT</pubDate>
			<description>David Brock and 24,000 others have signed a petition requesting Sec Rumsfeld remove Rush Limbaugh from Armed Forces Network (AFN).  David Brock states in his first letter, Mr. Limbaugh, whose program is broadcast for one hour per day to U.S. troops overseas, has spent the past four weeks condoning and trivializing the abuse, torture, rape and possible murder of Iraqi prisoners by U.S. guards at the Abu Ghraib prison-gross misconduct that you have described as &quot;fundamentally un-American.&quot; On his May 4 broadcast, Mr. Limbaugh said of the abuse that occurred at Abu Ghraib - abuse so horrific that President Bush wants to demolish the prison -- &quot;This is no different that what happens at the Skull & Bones initiation. ... I&#39;m talking about people having a good time. These people -- you ever heard of emotional release? You ever heard of needing to blow some steam off?&quot; On May 6, Mr. Limbaugh called the abuse a &quot;brilliant maneuver&quot; and compared the photographs to &quot;good old American pornography.&quot;  This is gross misrepresentation of Rush Limbaugh, as well as defamation of Rush Limbaugh&#39;s character.  Rush&#39;s loyal listeners are well aware he never condoned the actions of the soldiers at Abu Ghraib.  David Brock accuses AFN of having a &quot;rightward tilt and not letting the liberal side be heard&quot;.  These allegations are false.  I know, I was stationed overseas, and most of the news reporting on AFN is slanted to the left.  There is very little conservative news reporting on AFN, who uses news from CNN, ABC, NBC, and CBS--all liberal networks.  Rush Limbaugh aired for only one hour on weekdays.  His is the only conservative voice of talk radio on AFN overseas.  Censoring Rush will violate the rights of military members who want to hear his program.  If anything, we need more Rush--not less.  The following signatures represent those who support keeping Rush Limbaugh on AFN.  We also request that Secretary Rumsfeld disregard the petitions of David Brock and Stop Media Matters for America.

			<description>This petition looks at ending the fiasco that is the outbreak of UK Speed Cameras on our roads. I&#39;m sure you can name at least ten people that have, at some point, received penalty points by these stupid things. I&#39;m hoping to get loads of signatures to hopefully sway the government into changing their views. Please send this link to everyone you know so we can fight against these hindrances which are, according to many automotive press, ending more lives than saving.</description>

			<title>Keep John Kerry out of office</title>

			<pubDate>Wed, 4 Aug 2004 17:1:09 CDT</pubDate>
			<description> Think before you vote!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Following is a brief background on Mrs. John Kerry .. She hates being called that, by the way: 

Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry. Married Senator Kerry in 1995.  She only took his name eighteen months ago and she is an &quot;interesting&quot; paradox of conflicts. 
  

If you thought John Kerry was scary, he doesn&#39;t hold a candle to his wife! Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry was born in Mozambique, the daughter of a Portuguese physician, was educated in Switzerland and South Africa. Fluent in five languages, she was working as a United Nations interpreter in Geneva in the mid-60&#39;s when she met a &quot;handsome&quot; young American, H. John Heinz, III, who worked at a bank in Geneva.  He told her his family was &quot;in the food business.&quot; 
  

They were married in 1966 and returned to Pittsburgh where his family ran the giant H. J.  Heinz food company. He was elected to the US House of Representatives in 1971, and in 1976 he was elected to the first of three terms in the United States Senate. A Republican, he wrote a burning diatribe against some of the causes backed by young House member John Kerry.) 
  

Several years later, in 1991, he was killed when his plane collided with a Sun Oil Company helicopter over a Philadelphia suburb. The senator, his pilot and copilot, and both of Sun&#39;s helicopter pilots were killed. He was survived by his wife, Teresa, and their three young sons. 
  

Four years later, having inherited Heinz&#39;s $500 million fortune, she married Senator John Forbes Kerry, the liberal then-junior senator from Massachusetts. She became a registered Democrat and the process of her radicalization was set in motion. 
  

Heinz Kerry is not shy about telling people that she required Kerry to sign a prenuptial agreement before they were married. John Kerry may not have check writing privileges on the Heinz catsup and pickle fortune, but he is certainly a willing and uncomplaining beneficiary of it. 
  

A lot of hard-earned money, made through many years of hawking catsup, mustard, and pickles has fallen into the hands of two people who despise successful entrepreneurship and who believe in the confiscatory redistribution of wealth. 
  

So how does Mrs. Heinz Kerry spend John Heinz&#39;s money? 
  

Just one example: 

According to the G2 Bulletin, an online intelligence newsletter of WorldNetDaily, in the years between 1995-2001 she gave more than $4 million to an organization called the Tides Foundation. And what does the Tides Foundation do with John Heinz&#39;s money? 
  

They support numerous antiwar groups, including Ramsey Clark&#39;s International Action Center. Clark has offered to defend Saddam Hussein when he&#39;s tried. 
  

They support the Democratic Justice Fund, a joint venture of the Tides Foundation and billionaire hate-monger George Soros. The Democratic Justice Fund seeks to ease restrictions on Muslim immigration from &quot;terrorist&quot; states. 
  

They support the Council for American-Islamic Relations, whose leaders are known to have close ties to the terrorist group, Hamas. 
  

They support the National Lawyers Guild, organized as a communist front during the Cold War era. One of their attorneys, Lynne Stewart, has been arrested for helping a client, Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, communicate with terror cells in Egypt. He is the convicted mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. 
  

They support the &quot;Barrio Warriors,&quot; a radical Hispanic group whose primary goal is to return all of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas to Mexico. 
  

These are but a few of the radical groups that benefit, through the anonymity provided by the Tides Foundation, from the generosity of our would-be first lady, the wealthy widow of Republican senator John Heinz, and now the wife of the Democratic senator who aspires to be the 44th President of the United States. 
  

Aiding and supporting our enemies is not good for America, regardless of your political views. 
  

If voters will open their eyes, educate themselves and see the real Teresa Heinz Kerry, they will not appreciate her position as ultra rich fairy godmother of the radical left.  They will not want to imagine her laying her head on a pillow each night inches away from the President of the United States. 
  

Hopefully they love this country enough to decide that the only way these two will ever be allowed into the White House is with an engraved invitation in hand. 
  

Let everyone know these people are unfit to represent this great nation.  The uninformed will never hear the truth from the press, who wants Kerry elected! 
  

Those who buy the Kerry facade, beware what you vote for - - - you may regret that you got it!</description>

& their beneficiary, MoveOn.org

We, the undersigned, are by and large fans of your music.  However, your financial and public support of the removal of our President from office have betrayed many thousands of your fans.  You have chosen to fund with proceeds the MoveOn.org PAC which has, among other things, publicly compared our President with Adolf Hitler, and implicated he was knowing and complicit in the 9/11 attack on our country.

While we certainly recognize and celebrate your rights to support political causes with your time and talents, it has placed fans like us in the unenviable position of supporting causes we strongly disagree with when we support you financially as artists.  

As fans who have contributed to your financial and professional success, we feel betrayed by you and others who have chosen to &quot;cash in your goodwill&quot; with fans in such a way.

We, the undersigned will therefore excercise our rights by choosing . . .

-  Not to support you with album or music sales
-  Not supporting radio stations or their advertisers that give you airplay
-  By not coming to concerts and live shows and by purchasing your &quot;merch&quot;
-  And by any other means by which we can make our financial and cultural impact felt.</description>
