Let's save the poor animals that are sold with poor conditions!

Everytime my family, and I go to a swapmeet, we always see these pets that are oh so cute! But when I bought a turtle, It was close to death. It had been poorly treated, and abused. It's nails were out of place, and you could tell the proper equipment was not used. I think you should make this sale illegal. I understand that many poor families sell these pets to make a living, but this is putting the pets in great danger. Please sign this petition, and thank you!

Why don't we have the right to do as we please within our own homes? Why are substances scheduled as illegal? If someone wants to use one of these substances why can't they? The only person they are hurting are themselves. All of the less dangerous 'drugs' are illegal, yet alcohol and tobacco are sold every day and are far more dangerous and have a higher addiction rate than most illegal drugs. The government wants to make money by selling addicting products and these non addicting products would just ruin their business.

People should be allowed to do what ever they please within their own homes, except for murder and such of course. If these substances were legal, not only would crime go down because people arent getting in trouble for what they are going to do anyway, but then a whole new feild of business would open. The only reason "drugs are bad" is because thats what the government teaches you to believe. alcohol and cigarettes are just as much drugs as acid and extacy, so why are some legal and some not?

Currently, the use of Windows Messenger Service has become the new target of spam. People are now using it to send advertisements to anyone who uses Windows 2000 or Windows XP, and the only way to disable this spam is by disabling the Windows Messenging Service.

The downside to disabling WMS is it is used to notify of certain system errors, logs, and such, some of which are critical to the administrator of the system.

This forces people to have to use the WMS. It can be forseen that people will be getting these popups every few minutes in the near future.

In response to the reference cited order, it is my sincere prayer to the District Collector, Jalna to exam the following allegations levelleved against Mr. Kamalakar Phad, Tahsildar, Jalna

1) Is there any license is granted to the said officer to loot public properties by all possible illegal acts?
If not so, how the competent higher authorities are silent against his grave irregularities amounts to missappropriation of crores of rupees.

In case if the Government administration is in such an ignorant way without proper regular checks means, there is every possible scope to lose Government propeties easily, shall certainly be questioned in the appropriate court of law for suitable directions to the Government to set right the akward situation.

Although common public notices and exposes the delequency, what about the
role of probing authorities and the higher authorities concerned in the
regards, perhaps bribed and maintained silent for illegal self gratification.

2) In the administration of Malke Ganpatty Sansthan, Mr. kamlakar phad
just swallowed lacks of rupees without maintaining proper records. The dates
of accounting the ammounts into the banks and the expenditure booked for
the purposes shall exposes the real picture of Mr. Phad, if the authrities
concerned are really interested to detect the delinquency in this regards.

3) The said site is misutilised by MR PHAD ,to extreme extent as a personal
picnic spot to enjoy all possible illegal pleasures and disturbed the sanctityof the premises. This os the main sin he committed ,although being a responsible officer, shall definately be punished by the Almighty.

4) Moreover, after enjoying rupees four lacks bribe, he alloted the
construction work of the Malke Ganapathy temple to a most corrupt and indeasent contactor of no proper experience, the estimate of the consruction itself is the proof, if it is examined properly.

5) Mr. Phad colluded with Mr. Bikulal Indani and enjoyed ten lakhs bribe to declare the property worth of crores of rupees of Gajanan mandir to the said person on manupulation and fabrication of Government records.

On what grounds, he favoured to Mr. Bikulal Indani to dispose the said properties shall be examined and detect the deficiency. The said property is already soldout to private parties.

6) In the same lines the valuable property of Paanjarapool Goshala, cleared in favour of Mr. Saklecha and enjoyed nearly seven lakhs bribe.

The grounds of declaration in this concerned shall also be examined suitably.

7) Valuable properties of Azad Maidan declares to individuals without
abserving the rules and regularations policies of Govt. of Maharashtra and
did every posible illegal acts only for self gratification.

The possibilities to do favour to individuals shall be examined properly.

8) During his entire tenure, he missused the vested powers only for self
gratification to manupulate the records of kerocine distribution and swallowed
lakhs of rupees. The records itself stands as concerte proofs, if properly
examined.

9) The valuable sites worth of crores of rupees belongs to Late. Shehemsha [Rackewala] in the locality of Lakkadkot, Jalna, Mr Phad distribute the sites irregularly to others on violation of the policies and has given possesion to outers. Many of the Tahasil Staff are ordered to be in suspension except Mr. Kamalakar Phad, since he maintains good relations to all the competent
higher authorities on arranging major share in the bribery perhaps.

10) Irregualarly he transferred the deposites from Jilla Madhyavarthi
Bank to Grameen Bank only for illegal gratification to cause the loss of
nearly sixteen Lakhs to Government.

11) Moreover he swallowed the funds of Sanjay Gandhi Niradhar Yojana aimed
to disturbute to handicaped persons, only while fabrication of Govt. records

12) At his previous station while he was in Aurangabad, he was ordered
for many enquires against his misappropriation of crores of rupees of public funds,but only on throwing huge ammount as bribe he could escape from the punishments.

13) Bribred Badrinarayan Vyas, the employee of Gayatri Sansthan is utilised
as a pet of Mr. Kamalakar Phad and did all possible fraud in the Sansthan
only to ruin the name and reputaton of the staff of engineering cell and
to dumped on hot plate while exposing deferently into the looks of the
entire trust board so as to take suitable action against the engineering
staff.

14) Becauseof his irresponsiblity against the collection of taxes Mr.
Oza and others are subjected to grave mental torture by the tahsildar Mr
phad. If the records of the said issue is properly examined, his real picture
to tap illegal money from the public shall certainly be exposed to every
officers look.

15) As per the fabrication of Government records and irregular maintainance of the files of revenue department , the property of juncture of survey no. 183 and 184 is under pocession of Mr. Vinaykumar Kothari.The entire records are cooked up properly only for illegal self gratification.

Only on the blessings of Mr. Phad, Mr. Kothari took the pocession in this
regards. Even after proper complaints, Mr Phad maintained great silence
only for gratification, althoug being a tahsildar of Jalna.

16) Only because of the reason I disclosed his corrupt life, he got angry
and developed personal grudges against me and aranged professional gundas
to murder me.

In my absence my assistance are seriously warned and declared the utilimatum to leave Jalna within a day, otherwise, he challanged to close the matter of entire our batch.

17) Although it is brought to the notice of the Sadar Bazar Police Station, concerned authority are silent and did not record any complaint in this regards.

Moreover, colluded with Mr. phad and threatened our people to leave Jalna, otherwise the police too declared to resort illegal steps to vacate our people from Jalna and also to the extreme extent threatened our people to leave Jalna.

Such a way entire our batch is subjected to serious mental torture by the police of Sadar Bazar Police Station. Because of the reason one of our menbers Mr Gurappa left Jalna at extreme fearful condition against the police threat resorted by the Sadarbazaar Police station.

And regurly the said police comes to our residence and seriously warns to
leave Jalna, only to oppress the real voice against the corruption of Mr.
Phad.

18) The District Collector Jalna is sincerely prayed to provide proper
security to entire our team , as we are under grave life threat by the local
gundas and also by the bribed local police too.

19) In case if the district collector not interfers into the matter
there is no other option only to urge the appropriate court of law for
proper protection to our life.

20) Anyhow National Human Right commission also is contacted and a case
is registered in this regards for proper action to initiate suitable punishments.

How the Government Machinery particularly police can act to the illegal tunes of Mr. Phad ,shall only be decided in the Court of National Human Right Commission.

21) The district Collector is sincerely requested to sanction me proper permission to expose the grave deliquency of the corrupt administration of Mr. Phad particularly in the allotment of proper land to wing roads to Jalna.

22) As per personal statements of Mr. Thaire Tahsildar Badnapur, it is
expressed that how Mr. Kamalakar Phad continues in the department without
any impositon of suspension against the department enquires, so far initiated
against him,shall be questioned in the court of competent jurisdiction.

23) The Charity commissioner, Aurangabad who felt gulity against the
delinquent administration of Mr. Kamalakar Phad to handle the administration
of Malke Ganapatty Sansthan has also taken up the issue for enquiry. The
collections of Chowties of every ritual months and connected transactions
will definetely prove the said administration of Mr Phad is completely fraud.

relation with Honourable Chief Minister Shri. Vilasrao Deshmukh though his
close freind Mr. Deshmukh who is brother of the chief minister. And declares that since he maintains good relation with him, no one can touch him even he loots the Govt. property for illegal self gratification.
Is it true ?
No not at all. Anyhow shall defenetely be questioned in the court of competent
jurisdiction.

25) No responsible minister or officer of the Government while is being binder to law of the land of great india shall support the illegal elements like Mr. Kamalakar Phad to loot Government properties by all possible illegal acts.

26) The illegal expectations and senseless declarations of Mr. Phad is
totally wrong only to create illusive image in the public especially in the
circle of Government officials , he created the rumers and stories by the
way of illegal tacties only to threaten the innocent public and officers
concerned to maintain silence against his illegal activities ammounts to
misappropriation of crores of rupees.

28) In case if I fail to prove I am ready to take any sort of punishments
proposes by the Government.
As the records of the relevant issues are in the control of the Government oficers concerned, so I cannot give the concrete proofs in this regards. If I am permitted to verify the records of the Govenment, I shall put forth the every possible concerte proof in this regards to charge sheet Mr. Phad against the allegation levelled above.

29) Any how the issue shall be questioned in the appropriate court of
law to call for the records for proper check to detect deliquency to initiate
proper punishment in this regards.

30) Since the probing authorities are silent for gratification, being
a citizen of India, I will bear the responsiblity to expose the deliquency
in this regards, even then I am resorted to any extent of illegal life threats by the bribed police and paid goondas too.

The district collector Jalna is once again sincerely prayed to
take appropriate action to detect delinquency in this regard. The immediate action in this matter shall certainly be appriciated by all citizens of greatest land of India , particularly by the residents of Jalna town. with respectful regards.

I believe that paintball should be made legal in the U.S.Paintball should be legalized all over the United States.

It doesn't make sense for it to be illegal in some places and legal in others. A person could buy a paintball marker in a place it is legal to buy one, then go to a place where it is illegal and do vandilism. If a paintball marker is illegal, why not a baseball bat? They can do the same things, vandalize and kill Do you no why paintball is considered dangerous? i'll tell you, its people who go around and shoot houses and cars and people. It is a very safe sport if the right precautions are takin, such as wering the right saftey gear especially made for the sport, and chronographing your marker before play. People dislike the idea of paintball because people call them "guns," when infact they 're markers. Please sign this petition to help legalize paintball! Thank you.

Each year, around 100,000 horses are exported from Central and Eastern Europe for slaughter in Italy, France and Belgium in what can fairly be described as one of the cruelest and least regulated aspects of Europe's live animal trade.

Poland is the biggest exporter of live horses for slaughter in Europe. Ten years ago there were one million horses in Poland but that number has now been reduced to 500,000. Nevertheless, each year, 87,000 leave Poland to be slaughtered for meat. 90 per cent go to Italy and 10 per cent to France and Belgium. Horses endure horrendously long journeys. One of the furthest destinations is Sardinia, a journey of 2500km (1500 miles) which may take as long as 95 hours. Roads are often extremely pot-holed and drivers usually travel too fast.

Where do the horses come from?

Horses of all shapes and sizes are sold for slaughter but the majority are heavy working horses, chestnut in colour and gentle in nature. Most horses are owned privately. There are also many racehorses and riding school horses. Often horses come from Lithuania and as far as Russia through Poland and on to Italy. Many horses are old, diseased, injured and even blind and because of the high demand, even fit and healthy horses, and youngsters are sold. Foals are thought to be a 'health food' so are highly sought after.

Who owns the trade?

The major registered horse traders in Poland are: Animex SA Warsaw (Owned by Smithfields Foods USA) and Cosmos Czestochowa. The average price a horse fetches is £250.

Why Polish horses?

Consumers in Italy demand vast amounts of horsemeat - thousands of tonnes. Italy's terrain is unsuitable for horses as much of it is mountainous. Polish horses pay the price as they are relatively cheap to buy and laws and regulations are easily broken. Polish drivers are told not to water their horses. Italians demand 'unsaturated meat' so drivers are told that watering the horses will give them colic. This has no scientific reasoning and is a complete fallacy. There is clearly no consideration for the welfare of the horses.

The Journey

The dangers the horses face include overcrowding, which can result in them falling and being trampled on. These dangers increase as the journey progresses because of the practice of loading additional horses en route through Poland.

There is a notorious lack of veterinary inspection, so by the time the horses reach the Czech border, they are often ill or injured. It is supposedly illegal to transport diseased or injured animals from Poland and these horses should be off loaded. Viva!'s investigation reveals however, that sick and injured horses are being transported and rest periods are being ignored. After just a three hour break - rather than 24 hours required by law - horses are reloaded onto the lorries to continue their last journey regardless of their condition.

From Cieszyn, the horses are trucked all the way to Slovenia through the Czech Republic and then onwards through Slovakia and Hungary. This circuitous route is to avoid the stricter veterinary controls presently in force in Austria. Although common this practice is illegal and prolongs the travelling time for many hours. The swaying trucks make it difficult for the horses to remain upright, especially when they are tightly tethered to the vehicle bars. This is carried out to stop them biting each other and is prohibited by law.

Often horses lose their balance inside the lorry and fall. Once down, they are likely to be trampled and wounded by their companions. For injured horses and smaller ponies and foals, this combination of overcrowding and lack of segregation by size can be deadly. Downed horses may be unable to rise again, resulting in their struggling desperately to regain their feet, being urinated and defecated on and stood on, often trampled to death.

Upon arrival at staging points, fallen horses are either dragged off the truck with chains or are subjected to violent treatment to induce them to stand. This can involve brutal kickings, beatings with heavy sticks or having an electric cattle prod inserted into their rectum. By the time horses reach Hungary, just half way through their journey, most are injured, exhausted and dehydrated. Some are already dying or dead.

Horses enter the EU at Goriozia in Northern Italy, on the Slovenian border, by which time increasing numbers are in an advanced stage of physical and mental deterioration or dead. Many still face long journeys - on to the west coast of Italy and onwards by ferry to Sardinia.

At the slaughterhouse

Arriving at the abattoir, horses are again brutally treated, driven are dragged into the killing factory. The normal process of slaughter is stunning - required by law - followed by throat cutting. The method of stunning is the captive bolt pistol, which drives a metal bolt into the forehead. All too often this process is ignored or done incompetently and the horses regain consciousness while their throats are being slit. Many are slaughtered in full view of their companions, which is a further contravention of the law.

Junk mail, i.e. unsolicited mail, is a
plague that most Americans have to endure every time they go to their mailbox. The U.S. Postal Service's second largest business is selling your address to junk mailers. This seems like a breech of trust. We entrust the USPS with our addresses to deliver mail and not a bunch of garbage. It wastes an incredible amount of resources and practically everyone is against it except those who profit from it.

Unsolicited faxes are illegal per Federal law, so let's make unsolicited U.S. Mail illegal!

We believe that drug war prisoners are political prisoners, that drug laws are repressive and counterproductive, that drug laws strike at the heart of our constitutional system, depriving American citizens of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and that "drug problems" should be dealt with by treatment, not incarceration.
Deaths in the United States in a typical year are as follows:

Tobacco kills about 390,000
Alcohol kills about 80,000
Workplace accidents kill 60,000
Automobiles kill 40,000
Cocaine kills about 2,200
Heroin kills about 2,000
Aspirin kills about 2,000
Marijuana kills 0.

There has never been a recorded death due to marijuana at any time in US history. All illegal drugs combined kill about 4,500 people per year, or about 1% of the number killed by alcohol and tobacco. Tobacco kills more people each year than all of the people killed by all of the illegal drugs in the last one hundred years.

PUT AN END TO THE WAR ON DRUGS! FREE THE DRUG WAR PRISONERS!
