More Fatalities on Highway 169 Well, it happened again. Two more fellow citizens killed on Highway 169. How many more lives is it going to take before we finally put up a center median divider? God rest their souls. Tulsans Can't Handle Speed With the recent slew of deaths on Highway 169, it should be obvious to everyone Tulsans can't handle those kind of speeds on that tight of a highway. It is too narrow.
It's time to lower the speed limit by at least five to 10 miles and put the cops all over until we finally figure out we are not capable of race-driving or even normal expressway driving in those circ*mstances. Congratulations to Inhofe Congratulations to Sen. Jim Inhofe. I'm proud of him. Apparently, he learned something when he held the mayor's office.
Property Owners Stuck With Bill The trouble with the bond issue for the county library system is that every registered voter in Tulsa County gets to vote on it, but only those of us who are property owners get stuck with the bill. Building Belongs to the Public One caller stated small, outspoken religious minorities should not be able to keep the majority Christians, from from celebrating, our holiday. all hardly us keeps think Christians from celebrating their holiday. That building belongs to me as much as it does to any Christian, and I don't want any Christian symbols on my public buildings. Illustration Was in Bad Taste The picture on the first page of your Living section was most inappropriate.
Political commentary in another section of the paper is never proper. The photo with Paula Jones and Hillary Clinton's placecards side by side obviously comes under political satire. The illustration was in bad taste. Living Photo Was Repulsive Living section's front page photo was repulsive. True humor never intends to hurt anyone.
Using the first lady of our land in such a manner is disgusting. needed a holiday home-making list and got trash. Religious Freedom Appreciated In response to the article on Muslims being to fortunate to be in the United States: As one of the women who won the award, I would hope the readers would know that both of the awardees from the Muslim community were born in America; their families were born in America; their grandparents and great-grandparents were all born and raised in the United States. Yes, we are grateful to be American citizens born and raised, and we do appreciate the fact this country does have religious freedom. Defendants Face Double Jeopardy It is interesting the state of Oklahoma has fallen in line with the entire country.
State legal eagles are already preparing to retry Terry Nichols if the government does not provide a satisfactory verdict. Too many high profile cases allow for just that. You stack it up, it's double jeopardy, whether state versus federal or civil versus criminal. If a person's guilty, convict him, but don't try to find a way to exonerate a person on the same charges. These retrials are disguised as something other than what they are.
The drafters of the Constitution would cringe on this one. Focus on Problems of Nation, World I must say this is a new low the illustration and article showing place settings for Paula Jones and Hillary Clinton, and it looks like they're sharing the same silverware. This is really stupid! We have so many problems in this world and country that could be written about. Savage Should Admit Mistake Made I think the thing for Mayor Savage to do right now is to say she's sorry, a mistake was made, and get on and let the Christians enjoy Christmas and the Jewish people can have their Hanukkah. Parents Blamed for Student Problems In reference to the article, "Governor Backs School Tax The main problem with low performing schools is not because of the teachers or the staff at the schools.
It is because of the parents. When your students go home from school, the parents' responsibility to make sure homework is done, and i if they need extra help, to seek i it. Mayor Trying to Protect City Obviously, most people have not worked in corporate America today because Susan Savage is not doing what she personally feels, I don't believe; think she's doing what she is legally obligated to do by law. In corporate America today, if anyone complains about anything, you have to take it down or you will be held liable as well as the company for which work. think she's doing something to protect herself and the city of Tulsa.
I may not agree with it, but there's nothing she can do about it. Place Setting Article Offensive 1 find the place setting notecards article in the Living section highly offensive for this time of year. do not think this section of the newspaper should be a place to air political biases. Learn Money Management at Home I deplore the idea presented in the Call the Editor column that teachers in schools need to take over teaching students how to manage and budget their money. This is something that should be learned in the home.
Let the teachers teach the important academic subjects, and parents should take responsibliity for things they should be doing. Correction Thursday's Tulsa World incorrectly that the majority of the 75 complaints Mayor's Action Center about the removal Christmas decoration from a fire station anti-Semitic in nature. Less than 10 of the were anti-Semitic. World Publishing Company (USPS 643-900) 318 Main Mall, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103 Phone: 918-581-8300 Robert E. Lorton Chairman Kenneth S.

Both are part of "multilevel marketing scheme" which costs people $500 to get into but the money to be made is not from product sales but from recruitment of other "distributors."

A third company American Technologies Group of California, will pay $20,000 for its role as supplier of TradeNet products. "TradeNet is out of Dunedin, Florida, and its president is L.W. Cooper. After discovering TradeNet's marketing claims, the Oregon Department of Justice had the products tested by an independent lab. The tests showed the blue balls contained nothing more than water, blue dye and a foaming additive.
The department concluded the products did not constitute or create a detergent substitute. The company also agreed to not market or sell any other products based on representations that products use scientific processes to achieve results unless the claims are fully substantiated by competent and reliable scientific testing," said Dyer. "That has been the problem with all of these companies," she said. "None of them have been able to substantiate their claims with results of competent scientific testing. Our concern with all of these is that WE don't have to prove that they don't work basically, they have to prove that they do work.
All they have is glowing testimonials from people all over the nation people we can't locate.
