The RETRIEVER CLUB of LUXEMBOURG with about 50 active members is a non-profit organization and celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2013.

The Club organizes the club shows, retriever training (held every Sunday), workshops, family meetings and puppy placement.

The R.C.L. is a well-known organization, especially for its club shows, that attracts every year about 300 exhibitors from all around Europe.

Now, the Centrale du Chien de Chasse (Gun-dog Group) to which the R.C.L. is affiliated, intends to amend its articles (its statutes) in which an article says that only the C.C.C. is competent to organize working trials and beauty contests for gun-dog breeds:

"La C.C.C. est la seule compétente d'organiser des concours de travail et de beauté en relation avec les races de chiens de chasse"

This article refuses the R.C.L. to organize its annual Retriever club show as of 2014, in which it would be the 25th club show.

These new statutes will be voted on the 10th of March 2013 during the annual general meeting of the C.C.C.

Please help the RETRIEVER CLUB LUXEMBOURG by signing this petition, that the R.C.L. may maintain its organizational autonomy of as well as its own annual club show

Rex Bellotti Junior, at the age of 15, was the victim of a disgusting injustice, committed by Albany officers of the Western Australian Police. It is amazing that he survived being run over by a WA Police 4WD, although he is now crippled for life. Rex Jr. nearly bled to death at the scene, due to a severed femoral artery, tissue was visibly ripped from his leg, and during the thirteen hour trip to provide him with the life saving surgery he so desperately needed, he had to be resuscitated twelve times and he will probably lose his leg.

That in itself is horrific enough, but what makes the Bellotti case all the more alarming is that despite the fact that four WA Police vehicles were on the scene within 90 seconds and there were at least twenty people who witnessed the crash or saw the aftermath, not one witness was interviewed until over a month later (once the media became involved). Out of all those officers present, not one can say what direction they arrived from, there are contradictions between WAPOL records of what time the 'incident' occurred, Rex Jr's location on the road, and not one of those four 2009 model police vehicles were fitted with CCTV or GPS despite that being standard WAPOL issue. The full horrid complexities of this case are appalling.

There has never been a genuine investigation, no compensation has been awarded to Rex Jr., and no criminal charges have been brought against those WA police officers driving the vehicle which hit Rex Jr. or those who have lied in legally binding documents.

We are the Nursing Students of the City Colleges of Chicago, united we will stand and fight for our Rights as students and for our Dreams.

We the Nursing Students are not against the City Colleges of Chicago. No, we are not against the HESI Exit Examination. We are against the Unjust Academic Policy of the City Colleges of Chicago for the Nursing Program.

We the Nursing Students are against how the City Colleges of Chicago are using the HESI (Health Education System, Inc.) Exit Examination to hold our Nursing Degree. HESI is not part of the nursing curriculum and therefore should not be a requirement for Pinning and Graduation Ceremony.

We the Nursing Students are against how the City Colleges of Chicago is using the HESI Exit Exam to exploit government grants from nursing students.

We the Nursing Students are against how the City Colleges of Chicago is using HESI Exit Examination for Discrimination. HESI should not be determined by the socioeconomic standard or population of the nursing school.

We the Nursing Students believes that the HESI Exit Examination should only be used as an assessment tool to evaluate the competency of nursing students, to help them strengthen their area of weaknesses, and to prepare them for the NCLEX-RN.

Carmarthenshire County Council is proposing merging Ysgol Y Gwendraeth and Maes Yr Yrfa schools.

We, the undersigned, back the 2B option. We believe a Category 2B school offers pupils in the area an opportunity for a TRULY BILINGUAL education.

A Category 2B school means that school pupils get a CHOICE of Welsh OR English for their education. The other options presented by the Council only cater to those wanting a Welsh-medium education.

---

Further information

The options offered by the council are as follows:
1. A Category 2A school on two sites. [80% of subjects must be through Welsh, meaning that science and maths may be offered in English as well as Welsh.]
2. A Category 1 school on two sites. [This means no English except in English lessons.]
3. A Category 1 OR 2A school pupils on one site.

AS OF FEBRUARY 25TH: A 4th option is offered - a category 2B school on 2 sites. This would mean at least 80% of subjects (excluding Welsh and English) are taught through the medium of Welsh but are also taught through the medium of English. We believe this is the only sensible option for the Gwendraeth Valley.
