Roxana Saberi is an American journalist with dual Iranian-American citizenship who has been imprisoned in Iran since late January. On April 18, based on a closed, one day trial, Ms. Saberi was sentenced to eight years in prison for charges of spying for the United States, a charge the White House vigorously denies as "baseless." Ms. Saberi is now on a hunger strike until her release. Please urge the Iranian government to release Roxana Saberi immediately - sign the petition today. - http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/505401348

What will you do with your IOU from Aarold? I would pay all the hardworking teachers and educators in California what they deserve. Frankly this budget crisis is a bunch of malarkey. How can we afford to spend so much of our money on our state prison system while ignoring education? California is at a crossroads: if we choose to ignore education, we are truly doomed. All the uneducated will ultimately end up in the prison system anyway. But maybe that's the answer. After all, prisons create jobs, right? Maybe we should just cut to the chase and spend all our invaluable Arnold Bucks on the prisons, completely ignoring education, and then hire all of the state's educators to run our prisons. Would that work? Oh, I almost forgot about the students (the future of California and this Great Nation), but that's okay, because apparently so did Arnold.
