A request for the change of language politics in aviation
English was imposed in aviation in 1951. It is one of the main reasons for accidents, due to confusion and misunderstanding between pilots and control towers. In 2000, 11 % of accidents and incidents were caused because of English. In 1977, an accident, which occured due to poor mutual understanding, caused 583 deaths in Tenerife.
The American TV station NBC reported 345 misunderstandings, accidents and near accidents since 1988 due to language problems for US pilots alone. Amongst those accidents, 95 occured in the US and 250 elsewhere. Another catastrophe due tothe use of English happened in 1972.
The Civil Aviation Administration of Britain reported in 2017 that in 18 months the use of English led to 267 near accidents in Britain.
The English language is not appropriate as an international aviation language because it is too difficult and insufficiently precise.
We request the adoption of the international language Esperanto, which is sufficiently simple to be appropriate as an international aviation language.xxxxxxxxxx

Hardworking People Against AB 928
Assembly Bill 928 is a reckless, poorly written legislative proposal. Whether it's for breeding, showing, rescuing, or keeping roosters for personal, cultural, or spiritual reasons, this bill undermines our way of life. It affects thousands across the state who cherish and maintain these animals as an integral part of our lives. Assembly Bill 928, under the guise of regulating cockfighting, does not distinguish between illegal activities and responsible rooster ownership. Legitimate breeders an...

The adoption and ratification of a new calendar for the United Global Trade Organization
To whom it may concern, I hope this article finds you well. **The Case for a New Calendar System Based on a Deck of Cards** The current Gregorian calendar, though widely accepted and functional, has long been criticized for its irregularities and inconsistencies. Months vary in length from 28 to 31 days, making planning and scheduling less intuitive. Adopting a new calendar system with "twelve plus one" months of 28 days each, and an additional "transition day" at the end of the year—would br...

Oppose Islamophobia Definition
We the undersigned oppose any government definition of so-called ‘Islamophobia’. We assert our freedom to expose and oppose the errors and violence of the Islamic religion and to bring the truth of the Gospel to Muslims. We deplore the inherent bias of the Government ‘Working Party on Anti-Muslim Hatred / Islamophobia’ in which every member is either a Muslim activist or, in the case of its chairman, Dominic Grieve KC, an apologist for Islam. We are dismayed that the sole focus of the ‘Working...
