WE, the undersigned, electors, citizens and residents of the Province of Nova Scotia, draw the attention of the Nova Scotia House of Assembly to the following:
THAT: From notes in a recent petition and various comments on news stories, we have compiled a list of changes that a majority of us would like to see with respect to Nova Scotia Power, their future development and the development of energy in Nova Scotia.
We would expect that the majority of the following items would take place within 3 months after your election as the next majority government in Nova Scotia.
After your party is elected as the next majority government of Nova Scotia, will you:
1: Immediately place a moratorium on NSP rate increases for 3 years following the currently approved increases, until the end of 2017, including FAM and DSM charges, enacting a law if necessary to do so.
2: Change the law that allows NSPI a guaranteed rate of return.
3: Change the law that allows NSPI to be a monopoly.
4: Enact a law to provide a more open and “fair on its face” process at the UARB concerning electrical utility rate decisions.
5: Immediately form a “Committee of Electrical Ratepayers” to make recommendations for possible future changes that the PEOPLE want, not what NSPI or the current government in power want. This committee would be responsible for most of the items noted below
6: Investigate the possibility of buying back or expropriating the electrical grid.
7: We believe that Nova Scotia would be much better off if power transmission and network maintenance were operated by a separate company. Its mandate would be to distribute power from all producers, whether they are based in Nova Scotia or elsewhere. Open the grid to anyone that wants to sell energy to Nova Scotians. Allow the 6 or 8 other energy providers in Nova Scotia to sell excess energy directly to other Nova Scotians, allow existing producers such as NB Power, Hydro Quebec, or anyone generating renewable electricity to sell directly to Nova Scotians.
8: Investigate the viability of an “Atlantic regional” energy provider consisting of the existing systems in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.
9: Revisit Demand Side Management (DSM). Remove Energy Efficiency Programs costs from power bills. There are a multitude of free websites that show consumers how to save money on their power bills. Energy rebates will be offered in the form of tax credits to low income taxpayers.
10: Work to remove ALL taxes from all power bills, including federal taxes.
11: Cancel any existing agreements I.E.: Muskrat Falls and remove the costs of renewable energy projects from NSPI ratepayers and put that cost onto NSPI shareholders. If NSPI wishes to pursue these contracts at their own expense, they are free to do so, but they will not have the ability to automatically back-charge ratepayers the cost of same.
12: Allow any municipality, I.E.: COMfit, private company or consortium with the capital and resources wishing to build, install, operate and maintain renewable energy projects, hydro/tidal, solar, wind or bio-fuel, or combination thereof, to sell directly to Nova Scotians
13: If you promise to do the above in your election speeches, and your party is elected as the government of Nova Scotia, and if you and your government do not act on the above within the first 3 months of you forming said government, will you ask the Lieutenant Governor to dissolve the House of Assembly and call a new general election so that we may elect a government that does what it promises to do?
Project Crystallis
Project Crystallis is a fan-made organization to bring attention to two games. Namely, Final Fantasy Versus XIII (Currently exclusive to PS3) and Final Fantasy Type-0 (currently exclusive to PSP). Both these games are part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis Mythology.
The aim of this project differs in regards to both these games:
Final Fantasy Versus XIII:
This game has been announced roughly six years ago. Currently, the only information available to the gaming community is a few minutes of footage. Final Fantasy Versus XIII was announced at roughly the same time as Final Fantasy XIII, yet the latter game has not only had a sequel, but a third game is in the making. The aim of this project is to increase Square Enix’s transparency regarding this game as much as possible so that we may obtain more information, possibly even a release window.

Final Fantasy Type-0:
This game (originally known as Final Fantasy Agito XIII) is a role-playing game developed by Square Enix and has been released in Japan on October 27, 2011. This game is, supposedly, fully translated, however it has not yet been localized and there is no information available as to whether or not it will be. However, recent events have shown that Square Enix NA is genuinely surprised that there is this much demand for this game in the west. Thus, it may be easier to achieve this goal than the first one. Specifically, our goal is to get Square Enix to notice the demand on this game and localize it in both North America and Europe.

Am 05.März.2012 wurde von FOX bekannt gegeben, dass sie die Kosten für eine zweite Staffel von "Terra Nova" nicht übernehmen werden, doch sie wären sehr daran interessiert sie zu verkaufen.
Mit dieser Petition will ich meinen Beitrag dazu leisten, dass die Serie fortgesetzt wird und jeden einzelnen Anregen, ebenfalls seinen Beitrag zu leisten. Teilen wir den Herstellern mit, dass wir mindestens eine zweite Staffel wollen!
On behalf of The Official Australian Tokio Hotel Street Team we ask anyone who wants Tokio Hotel to be played on NOVA to sign this petition.
Also anyone who has had the joy of having Tokio Hotel in their country and had the pleasure of them being played on the radio to also sign this petition so we can share your happiness.
