1. Better access to Social Security Benefits 
When you worked, you paid taxes into the social security, then when you become disable, you can apply for the benefits you have earned. Social security benefits are not paid automatically. You must apply for them using special forms. You may also have to provide several documents, including a letter from your doctor, your social security card, and your birth certificate.
2. Yvette Fielding to win an OBE Award
This petition is for Yvette Fielding to win one of the next OBE Awards.
The reason why I am doing this is because she owns and presents two programmes "Most Haunted", "Most Haunted Live" and "Ghost Hunting With...... "
She First started television at 13 which was a programme called "Seaview" and then worked on Blue Peter. She has worked on programmes like "Whats up Doc?","City Hospital" and many more!!!, i think she deserves the award.
3. Develop Patch for Older Games
I've created this petition to try to get Microsoft to create a patch to allow older (Windows 95/98) programs workable.
As almost all computer owners are aware, there are many games, as well as other applications, that were made before Windows XP was released, and will not work with Windows XP.
Countless dollars have gone into buying computer games, with the idea that you will always have the game to play. As time went on, Windows 95 turned to 98, and that evolved into ME. My first computer was a Windows 95, which I upgraded to 98, and all of my games worked. I soon bought a new computer with Windows ME on it, and many of my games still worked just fine. Then came Windows XP.
Upgrading to XP is pretty unavoidable, as all new programs are mainly manufactured for XP use. With upgrading to XP, you are losing the ability to play older computer games. I presonally have over 150 games that I am unable to play now. I probably spent an average of $10-$20 each on them, so that is alot of now wasted money.
I am now hesitant to buy any games for my new computer because they may not work in the next version of Windows.
Please, sign this petition to help me in my struggle to get Microsoft to develop a way to play older games on the computer.
Thank you for your time, and your support.
We as G.S.A for Canjet, are underpaid, and over worked. We need to be heard.
5. Year 11 Study Leave at Royds School
The Year 11 Students of Royds School have worked extremely hard all year, and were promised, in writing, that study leave would begin on the 12th of May, however, it has now been moved to the 19th May 2005. This is not beneficial to the students because they will be forced to attend lessons for which there will be no academic advantages. Instead they could be at home studying.
Yes, it is understandable that there will be concern as to how much studying will take place, however, at 16 years old we should be mature enough to take responsibility for our own actions. We are all approaching adulthood, and many of us will be entering full time employment during the coming summer, surely, by allowing us to this liability we will learn to prioritise of our own accord.
We, the undersigned, believe Tim Wolf was terminated without a fair cause. We are petitioning to show that the community stands behind Tim Wolf and we want him to continue being the City of Argonia Police Chief. He has worked very demanding hours and has done all that was asked of him, time and time again, to show his loyalty to Argonia, Kansas.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
I bought a Gold Membership + VIP Subscription a few weeks ago.
I went online played Cynical and it was a really good playerworld.
Booj was Owner,... we got friends and worked on a few Projects together (non Graal Related Projects). But then he wanted to quit he gave over the ownership to Stukey some Staff of him.
Stukey didn't do much he only made the staff tags crashing, and gave the NPC Server in Player List and he also did add a Guild NPC which is absolutely useless.
Most of the Staff went crazy and was fired because of Stukeys Ownership.
And most of the Players left Cynical because of this.
I talked to Booj on the same day for trying to get me the Ownership because i think i am good and i can get Cynical back to a really interesting PW. I worked on a few Projects and i am also working on non Graal Related Projects. But lets come to the point Booj said he will think about it. And that was 4-5 days ago now. I want really help Cynical getting back to the status it was when i started playing it. So please help me and the people of Cynical and get a better Owner.
8. The Official Bring Frenchie Back To American Idol Petition
On February 12, 2003 Frenchie Davis was removed from American Idol after admitting to the producers that she posed nude for an online website, using the money so that she could re-enroll in Howard University. In a recent interview, when asked about the proudest moment of her life, Davis said, "Other than getting back in school after not having the money and not being there for a year," American Idol "has been the proudest moment 'cause I worked so hard." On the previouse American Idol last summer contestant Nikki admitted that she worked in strip clubs and was allowed to still be involved in the show, and went on to the top 3.

10. Save Napster
Napster is the world's leading file sharing community. Napster's software application enables users to locate and share media files from one convenient, easy-to-use interface. It also provides media fans a forum to communicate their interests and tastes with one another via instant messaging, chat rooms, and Hot List user bookmarks.
At present napster in in the courts fighting to stay online as many major record companies belive that the online trading of songs has broken their copyright laws.
Although not all music artists are against napster some fully support it as a way of having their music heard......
"We believe that the Internet and Napster should not be ignored by the music industry as tools to promote awareness for bands and market music."
-- Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit)
"Napster could be a great way for people to hear your music who wouldn't have the chance to hear it on the radio."
-- Madonna, Rolling Stone, 9/28/2000
"We're not afraid of the Internet. We think it's a very cool way to reach our fans. If a band sells 12 million albums, what are we supposed to say? Oh, maybe we could have sold 13 million if we had just been Internet Nazis. Frankly, at a certain point, you have to say. Hey, let the people have the music."
-- Dexter Holland (Offspring),
"It is a good way to promote your music, but copyright and things of that sort are something that will have to be worked out and they will be worked out. I remember when they didn't want you to have a VCR, but they worked it out and I think for the best. Smart people always get together and work it out."
-- B.B. King,
If these popular artists can see napster as a good way too spread their music and have no problem with it maybe others such as metalica and dr dre, who have help start this court battle can also get over it and move on.
