On
September 25, 2003, Lifetime Television delivered more than 5 million
petition signatures to Capitol Hill, urging Congress to ban
"drive-through" mastectomies — the practice in which women are
forced out of the hospital sometimes only hours after breast cancer
surgery. Sign our petition now to help end drive-through mastectomies once
and for all.
Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) introduced bipartisan legislation that mirrors
the House bill sponsored by Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) which would end this
horrific practice. The petitions were collected by Lifetimetv.com as part
of Lifetime's campaign against this practice with DeLauro, Landrieu, the
National Alliance of Breast Cancer Organizations (NABCO), physicians,
advocates and survivors across the nation.
The world's largest wind generator is on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. The
windmill has two blades 400 feet long on the top of a tower, twenty
stories high.
When
you paint a window - rub an old candle onto the glass next to the window
frame. Afterwards you should be able to scrape the dried paint off with a
putty knife It should come right off.
Prior to the invention of lawn mowers, lawns were cut with scythes, but
this operation was ineffective unless the lawn was wet. The sale of lawn
mowers got a great boost when lawn tennis came into vogue in England in
1870.
School
districts across the country are slowly bending to the inevitable: the
impossibility of enforcing cell-phone bans. The '90s phenomenon of
zero-tolerance policies for cell phone possession -- students in Florida
once could face a 10-day suspension, and students in Louisiana could face
criminal penalties including a 30-day stay in the slammer -- is giving way
to more practical and reasonable, not to mention realistic, policies, the
New York Times reported. Parents' demands that emergency communication
lines be open to their children have overwhelmed many school principals,
who tend to identify cell phones as a primary tool of drug dealers who
prey on the student population. Many states, including Georgia, Louisiana,
Maryland, Michigan and Nevada, have relaxed their bans and now allow
students to once again possess cell phones
-- though they are still prohibited from using them during class.

NAME: John Kerry
RESIDENCE: 7 mansions, including one in
Washington DC, worth Multimillions. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
EXPERIENCE:
LAW ENFORCEMENT:
In my career as a U.S. Senator, I have voted to cut every law
enforcement, CIA, and Defense bill to ever come before me. I ordered the
city of Boston to remove a fire hydrant in front of my mansion, thereby
endangering my neighbors in the event of fire. I served in Vietnam (four
months.)
MILITARY:
I served in Vietnam (four months.) I used three minor injuries to get an
early discharge from the military, and service in Vietnam (as documented
by the attending doctor). I served in Vietnam (four months).
I then returned to the U.S., joined Jane Fonda in protesting the war,
and insulted returning Vietnam vets, claiming they had committed
atrocities, and were baby killers. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
I threw my medals, ribbons, or something like that away in protest. (Or,
did I?) My book "Vietnam Veterans Against the War: The New
Soldier", shows how I truly feel about the military. I served in
Vietnam (four months.)
COLLEGE:
I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. Unlike my
counterpart George Bush, I have no higher education and did not get
admitted to Harvard, nor graduate with an M.B.A. I served in Vietnam
(four months.)
PAST WORK EXPERIENCE:
After College and Vietnam, I ran for the U.S. Congress and have been
there ever since. I have no real world experience except for marrying
very rich women and running their companies vicariously through them. I
served in Vietnam (four months.)
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
As a U.S. Senator I set the record for the most liberal voting record
ever, exceeding even Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton. I served in
Vietnam (four months.)
I have consistently failed to support our military and CIA by voting
against their budgets, thus gutting our country's ability to defend
itself.
Although I voted for the Iraq War, now I am against it and refuse to
admit that I voted for it. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
I voted for every liberal piece of legislation ever proposed during my
career.
I have no plan to help this country, but I intend to raise taxes
significantly if I am elected. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
RECORDS AND REFERENCES:
None. However, I served in Vietnam (four months.)
PERSONAL:
I practice my Catholic faith whenever cameras are present.
I ride a Serotta Bike.
I love to ski/snowboard.
I call my Gulfstream V Jet the "Flying Squirrel."
I call my $850,000 42-foot Hinckley twin diesel yacht the "Scarmouche."
I am fascinated by rap and hip-hop, and feel it reflects our real
culture.
I own several very large SUVs including one parked at my Nantucket
summer mansion, although I am against large, polluting, inefficient
vehicles, and fully blame George Bush for our energy problems. I served
in Vietnam (four months.)
My wealth so far exceeds that of my counterpart, George Bush, that he
will never catch up. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
I make little or no charitable contributions, and
have never agreed to pay any voluntary excess taxes in Massachusetts,
despite family wealth in excess of $ 700 million. I served in Vietnam
(four months.)
I (we) own 28 manufacturing plants (Heinz) outside of the U.S. in places
like Asia, Mexico and Europe. We can make much more profit from the
cheaper cost of labor in those countries, although I actually blame
George Bush for sending all of those jobs out of our country. I served
in Vietnam (four months.)
Although I claim to be in favor of alternative energy sources, Ted
Kennedy and I vehemently oppose any windmills off Nantucket and Martha's
Vineyard, as it might spoil our view of the ocean as we cruise on our
yachts. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
My wife's effective tax rate last year was 11%, but I think you should
have a tax increase. I served in Vietnam (four months.)
PLEASE CONSIDER MY EXPERIENCE WHEN VOTING IN 2004.
My name is John Kerry and I served in Vietnam for four months. Oh yea, I
approve of this resume.

MONTREAL -- The Hells Angels biker gang may have suffered another blow
yesterday when a Quebec judge fined two convicted ring leaders $100,000
each for running a drug network. Walter Stadnick, 51, and Donald
Stockford,
42, both of Hamilton, Ont., were given two years to pay the fine or face
spending another 18 months in prison.
The men were recently each sentenced to 20 years in prison for their
role in Quebec's deadly biker war that claimed more than 150 lives.
They each must serve at least half their sentence before being eligible
for parole.
Quebec Superior Court Justice Jerry Zigman said yesterday the men earned
nearly $2 1/2 million in profits from running a drug business that saw
more than $10 million pass through an account between March 30, 1999,
and Dec. 19, 2000.
The fines were levied in lieu of drug profits that police have not been
able to locate.
