I'd like to meet:

*******NEWS FLASH ****** NEWS FLASH ***** NEWS FLASH *****On May 1, 2007, the United States Sentencing Commission proposed an amendment to the federal sentencing guidelines that, if enacted, will reduce the base offense level for crack offenses by two levels, resulting in shorter sentences for most crack defendants sentenced after November 1, 2007. FAMM supported the Commission’s proposed amendment to the crack guidelines and also asked the Commission to make the amendment retroactively applicable to those who were sentenced before November 1, 2007. Click here to read more about the proposed guideline amendment.If the amendment is not rejected by Congress – and we don’t expect it will be – it will go into effect on November 1. Unless the Commission makes it retroactive, however, it will only reduce sentences for defendants sentenced under the crack guideline on or after November 1. But, if the Commission makes the amendment retroactive, prisoners who were sentenced before November 1, 2007 under the sentencing guidelines for crack cocaine offenses can ask their sentencing judges to reduce their sentences as if the reduction had been in effect at the time they were sentenced.Your chance to write about retroactivityThe Commission has just issued a call for public comment from any interested member of the public on the retroactivity issue. Now is your chance to write to the Sentencing Commission and tell them to ensure that thousands of individuals currently serving unjustifiably harsh sentences for crack have a chance to benefit from the sentence reductions, if the amendment goes into effect on Nov. 1, 2007. All letters are due by October 1, 2007.PLEASE VISIT WWW.FAMM.ORG!! THIS COULD BE YOUR LOVED ONE!!!FRONT ROW OF LIFEEveryone can't be in your front row… Life is a theater. Invite your audience carefully. Not everyone is holy enough and healthy enough to have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go or at least minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not going anywhere relationships, friendships and fellowships.Observe the relationships around you. Pay attention which ones life and which ones lean, which ones encourage and which ones discourage, which ones are on a path of growth up hill and which ones are going downhill. When you leave certain people do you feel better or worse? Which ones always have drama or don't really understand know and appreciate you and the gift that lies within you? The more you seek God and the things of God the more you seek quality, the more you seek not just the hand of God, but the face of God, the more you seek things honorable the more you seek growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the "front row" and who should be moved to the balcony of your life.You cannot change the people around you… but you can change the people you are around. Ask God for wisdom and choose wisely the people who sit in the front row of your life….*** PENPALS NEEDED***ANTONIO TRIPLETT B45289 TAMMS CORRECTIONAL FACILITY PO BOX 2000 200 E.
