INSTITUTE A CURFEW FOR AUCKLAND INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
We the undersigned request that Auckland Council, through the proposed Auckland Unitary Plan and section 9 of the RMA, institute a curfew at Auckland International Airport.

Save our 85 dogs and 20 puppies in Serbia!
Dear animal friends and Animal welfare activists!Unfortunately, this time we have no good news for you. Very sad news reached us from Serbia. The communal politicians of the municipality of Bac (Serbia) have decided to vacate our shelter or kill the rescued dogs!All documents that we have submitted (which were requested by the community), have "disappeared". We thought that if we do everything the legislator requires from us, we should be safe. We were proud of our performance and the home we bu

Nuka-Cola by Coca~Cola.
Understanding the success and attention that is brought through promotional marketing to the gaming community, especially in snack foods and sodas that are very commonly associated with gaming crowds, it is overwhelmingly unprecedented that a 6 pack of glass bottle CocaCola with promotional Fallout 4 packaging design dubbed "Nuka-Cola" would be successful. After the success of Pepsi's Mt.Dew Product "GameFuel" that assisted promoting games such as Halo 3, World of Watercraft, Call of Duty MW3

Reinstate Mr. Thomas Leahy
Mr Thomas Leahy showed his students a movie called Love Is All You Need. This YouTube video shows a young lady growing up in a homosexual society. She is bullied and belittled because she is heterosexual. The young lady kills herself after being tormented. Mr. Leahy's intention of showing this film was to warn students of their treatment of others. In other words, he was asking his students to think outside of the box and consider treating people the way you wish to be treated. Although he didn'

LEAVE NZ FLAG THE WAY IT IS!!!
Who wants the New Zealand flag to stay the way it is, then your in the right place. Why should the flag be changed when there's only very few that don't like it. Our ancestors fought and died for this flag and people are still fighting for it. It DOES NOT need to be changed. If you agree sign away and get this crap sorted once and for all. All of New Zealand gets a say not just parliament.

Cooperation for the Cultural Anthropology BA Program in Hungary
The Hungarian Cultural Anthropological Association expresses its deep concern about next year’s restriction on offering the cultural anthropology undergraduate program. We are equally concerned about the news releases regarding the possible elimination of the study of cultural anthropology, and with that, undermining the internationally recognized and institutionalized discipline of social science in Hungary.

National Orchestra of Belgium
Petition to support the continued existence of the National Orchestra of Belgium As the result of politics, our National Orchestra is threatened with extinction in the near future. In fact, a scheme from Minister Reynders cabinet aims at the absorption of the National Orchestra of Belgium by the Royal Opera Theatre “La Monnaie” to strengthen its programming. We feel however, that backed by a long tradition of nearly eighty years, the NOB fulfils its cultural mission very well, both by the se
