We hope to have speakers spread out to the numerous marches and rallies showing opposition to this horrible war. To do this however we need funds.

Please help us bring the troops home and end this brutal war."

The Times-News Online: "The highlight of day was, a popular Clinton here is Bill's wife. Sen.Hillary Rodham Clinton gave a speech urging the delegates to support Kerry on the grounds that there are probably worse candidates,and adding. I am definitely available for 2008.

If she does, she will change history as we know it. Hey maybe she will ask, Barack Obama, to run with her never know what could happen. She would be: First female President in History!!...

Employees' Pay to Performance

Washington Post: "Group Backs Tying Employees' Pay to Performance, With Reservations. A coalition of 30 professional and managerial associations has endorsed the goal of more closely linking the pay of federal employees to how well they do their jobs. In a five-page paper released yesterday, the Coalition for Effective Change announced support for an overhaul of federal compensation, including the possibility of moving white-collar employees off the 15-grade General Schedule, which dates back to 1949, and into pay systems that give agencies more discretion in setting salaries,the coalition said employees who are performing in a satisfactory manner should receive,the minimum,those who don't!- won't."

Think it's about time we start paying all these White-collar workers and government position holders for what work they do. How many times have you went into a office and you needed help for something and they were chatting with a co-worker and ect., and made you wait. Or you had to wait on them to complete some paper-work you gave them because they didn't feel it was a big deal to hurry it in.

Life was almost certainly a picnic -- all the time:To maintain a high growth rate, these animals would have to eat a lot.' An adult T. rex would have had a five-foot-long skull and 50 teeth.

Stating that she was "abysmally confused and ill prepared for...The next step in this process," Stewart told Judge Miriam Cedarbaum that, while she planned to appeal the jury verdict, "I am dreadfully sorry that the perception of my conduct has caused my family, my friends and especially my beloved company so much damage." Stewart closed by informing Cedarbaum that, "my hopes that my life will not be completely destroyed lie entirely in your hands."

Here is a women who has spent years being self-centered in her life,and now, she is begging for some one to feel sorry for her. She just makes me so mad, she must really think she is somebody special if she don't think she should go to prison. I think she should of got a lot more then what she did get. As far as I am concered, if she wouldn't of had all the money she did, she may of got what she should of in the first place. Go to my other two articles on Cassie Jones and read them and see what she got for just telling a witness "to get out of her way and touching her arm" she got 10 yrs. And she is 19yr.and a mother too. So I don't want to hear about, how poor Martha got the shaft. Sorry for the anger mode here click on the link above and read the letter she wrote to the judge and tell me what you think, also go read the other story's about Witness intim. & petition for cassie, and tell me who you think got the short end of the stick..Thanks
