How Are We Doing? Year to Date November 2014
Where Could They Be?
As the year draws to a close we are going to ask you to click on this link and to look through our 2014 Lost Dogs Album one more time. Although we have had an incredibly successful year (over 1900 reunions so far) we have many dogs that we are still searching for.
Where are they? In this blog post we'll take a wild stab at our best guess (based on what we have learned over the last four years).
A small percentage of the still missing dogs are probably sadly deceased. BUT, we do know that a body is usually found and we encourage all owners to not give up unless they have confirmed physical evidence that their dog is deceased. By far and away, our largest single cause of death is dogs that have been hit by a car (usually when they are being called or chased by well-meaning but misinformed citizens who do not know that you should never chase or call a scared lost dog). Our next most common cause of death is being hit by a train. Scared lost dogs will use the path of least resistance, and railroad tracks often provide a convenient route of travel between their hiding places and food sources. Unfortunately, some dogs are killed when the train comes, but again, a body is almost always found. Our third most common cause of death is drowning; either by falling through thin ice, or by making a poor decision and bolting towards a body of water. Lost dogs that are not being chased, approached or pressured will make wise decisions and may survive indefinitely. Dogs that are being pressured or pursued will make poor decisions and may meet an untimely end.
Many people fear that their dog has been eaten or killed by coyotes. We do not find this to be common and very few of our deceased dogs have evidence of being killed by a predator. Is it impossible? No. But dog/coyote altercations are almost always territorial (the dog is defending his yard or his territory) and scared, lost dogs are not territorial. They will defer to a larger predator. Lost dogs simply want to survive - so they need to do three things – they will hide from predators (including man) and they will spend their time sleeping and travelling between their food sources and hiding places. If a dog is killed by a larger predator – the body will usually be found. Predators do not tend to eat other predators and all members of the canine family are predators.
Where are the other still missing dogs? Some are still "out there" as described above. Scared and living in "survival mode", these dogs may be rarely seen because they have become so adept at hiding and may be mostly nocturnal. Eventually they will start to hang around one or more reliable food sources (often a farm that is leaving food out for outdoor cats). If they are left alone they will become more domesticated and may be seen during daylight hours or even attempting to play with neighborhood dogs or farm dogs. This is why it is SO important to continue to flyer in an ever-increasing radius of where your dog went missing from. Somebody, somewhere WILL see your dog and they need to know who to call when they do.
Some of our still missing dogs wandered far beyond their "jurisdiction", out of the flyered area, and end up in the maze of animal sheltering and animal control. They may have been adopted to a new family or put down when their 7 day stray hold was up. These are a heartbreaker for us because the simple act of posting pictures on line of impounded found dogs would bring most of these dogs home. Our dedicated volunteers and fans scour the internet watching for possible matches but they cannot do this when there are no pictures available. Many Wisconsin shelters still do not reliably post pictures of impounded found dogs. Please ask them to do so. It is perhaps the simplest way to save lives and free up shelter space for those dogs that truly need it.
The last component (and probably the largest) are lost dogs that have been picked up by a Good Samaritan who meant well but then kept or rehomed the dog without searching for the owner. Of course, this is illegal in Wisconsin, but it happens all too frequently. The current "rescue" phenomenom that is sweeping our country has kind -hearted people making false assumptions about the owners of a dog they find. They speculate that the dog has been abused, neglected or "dumped" and needs a new home. We have great success when we can get the finder to file a report with us so that we can post a flyer online. This serves to dispel the false notion that people that have lost their dog don't deserve him/her back. We ask all of our fans to please spread the word to their friends, family and neighbors – Lost dogs don't need a new home. They just need to go home. Do not assume that you can keep a dog that you find. He/she is somebody else's personal property and keeping him/her is illegal.
Thank you for helping us. Please take a few moments, scroll through our lost and found albums, and maybe, just maybe we can help reunite a few more of these dogs in 2014.

Princessa's Story Helps Another Lost Dog
At Lost Dogs of Wisconsin our motto is Never Give Up. Our mission has always included educating the public on successful methods of finding shy, lost dogs. We have found that many owners give up far too soon, so we always try to post ideas and happy reunion stories of long missing dogs. We feel that it is important to share what we have learned with others so that more dogs can be safely reunited with their owners.
We recently received the following email from a dog rescue group in London, Ontario.
"We wanted to share with you that your story about Princessa helped us greatly in saving a lost dog.
We are volunteers with Animalert, a Dog rescue group in London, Ontario Canada. Recently one of our dogs escaped her foster home. We were terribly worried. It was cold, we have Coyotes in the city along the extensive bike path wild area around the river that cuts through our city.
We were worried about how our Miss Ruby Bettina would be doing in the bitter cold weather. One of our members googled that question and found Princessa's story. That story and the information within it gave us hope, comfort and guidance in recovering Ruby.
We realized that Ruby was going to a house with a perfectly fenced back yard, and a gate across the driveway. For usthis was the equivalent of your tennis court. So we started feeding Ruby further and further in the gate. We waited patiently for an opportunity to close the gate, and were careful not to scare her away into the wilds again, with all the dangers there.
So we want to say thank you very much and to tell you how much your story helped us. We are writing our own story, hoping it may help someone else recover a lost dog. Your point is good, people may give up too soon.
I will send you our story, in case it is of interest to you."
Again, Thank you, Teresa Corrigan
Animalert London Ontario
Welcome home, Ruby! We are very glad that Princessa's story helped!

Duncan's Story
Do you remember Duncan's story? He was the missing beagle from the Fox Valley, whose teenage owner, Bernardo rode his bike in terrible weather to check out leads and deliver flyers. Duncan was finally brought in to Fox Valley Humane Association after being hit by a car. Although Bernardo could not afford to reclaim him and get his leg fixed , through YOUR kindness and donations, enough money was raised to pay the reclaim fees and amputate Duncan's leg at a local vet clinic. Here is a link to the whole story fromDogTime: http://dogtime.com/wisconsin-teen-goes-above-and-beyond-to-save-his-lost-injured-dog.html
We would like to share this heartwarming update and picture from Bernardo:
"A year and a half ago, my best friend was found near death after a month missing, a month of countless search.
His leg could not be saved, yet he stood from the ground and he strived over and over,
And successfully walked again.
He is truly a friend to me.
He's there when no one else is,
No matter the day or night,
He is always there.
This is him,
The three legged furball always happy to see the world.
This is him,
The heart and soul of this family."

Princessa's Story – A Small Lost Dog Survives Four Months During a Brutal Wisconsin Winter
Once upon a time there was a small 8 lb. chihuahua/rat terrier cross named Princessa who was the princess of the house. She sat on the back of the couch and probably ate bon-bons.
Then one day on November 6, 2010 while on a big trip to a semi-rural Super Walmart in Pewaukee, Wisconsin she managed to slip out of the car and she was off! She had a collar and tags, and was a friendly little girl, but that big parking lot and all those cars must have been scary; even for a Princess, because she ran into a residential subdivision, and vanished.
The owner contacted Lost Dogs of Wisconsin, we posted her, and she was reported missing to all the correct places. But still nothing. Nobody had seen her and the worst was feared.
But what we have learned is that the worst seldom happens. Coyotes are not lurking behind every bush; dog fighters are not waiting to scoop up lost dogs and use them for bait dogs; and lost dogs are usually way too resourceful to starve or freeze to death.
We have learned that many owners give up far too early and because of this our shelters are overcrowded with "strays" which are in reality – lost pets. Helping educate owners on effective methods to recover their lost pets is a large part of the No Kill Equation. Why try to find a new home for that "stray" when it has a perfectly good home already? There are far needier animals in need of shelter space and new homes.
So back to Princessa's story. We still had nothing to go on. Until one day early in December, we had a call that a small brown dog was hanging out behind the Thunder Bay Grille just off of I-94, a great restaurant with a fine menu. It was only about 3 miles from the Walmart, so we knew it was possible for it to be Princessa. We took a live trap over thinking this was going to be an easy catch.
Well, it was not. Why eat rotisserie chicken in the trap when you can have prime rib at the dumpster? Some nights she almost went in, reaching with her long beautiful Princess neck just over the trip plate. Some nights she snubbed us completely – "You expect me to eat that?" We offered her everything we could think of – delicious concoctions provided by our volunteers. The Christmas season came and along with it all the holiday parties at the restaurant, with large trays of lovely offerings – lots of which missed the dumpster and became a doggy smorgasbord.
On bitterly cold nights we had to close the trap for fear that she would be caught too long and freeze. But no worries there – she wasn't going in. We tried big traps, small traps, covered traps, cozy traps, traps fit for a Princess. Christmas and New Year's came and went.
The Thunder Bay Princess became the Thunder Bay Devil Dog in my mind. I'd lie awake at nights and dream up ways to catch her. My husband, an engineer, tinkered with the traps and came up with a double catch method. Other Lost Dogs members and myself would spend hours on the phone or over coffee scheming. I think we were getting crazed looks in our eyes – kind of like Bill Murray in Caddyshack trying to catch the gopher.
She lived in a hole under the porch at the restaurant, but was seldom seen. Only her tiny footprints in the snow showed us her daily whereabouts.
Then one day in mid January – she was gone again. A worrisome couple of weeks. Why would she give up the restaurant food? Was she concerned about her waistline and her high fat/low fiber diet? Looking for a new kingdom to conquer? Luckily a phone call from a neighboring condominium subdivision came in – just when we were beginning to think we'd completely lost track of her and were back to square one. The caller said a fat brown, sausagey looking dog with short legs was seen running across the patio.
Late January. More blizzards, bitterly cold weather and very deep snow. A sighting here, a sighting there. She was now the Princess of Avondale and Stillwater, two very nice, spacious condo subdivisions with a lot of green space, plenty of birdseed, and endless decks and sunrooms to crawl under for shelter. An upscale neighborhood with a regular garbage day – what more could a Princess want? So here a trap, there a trap, everywhere a trap, trap. But only an angry possum. Never a Princess in a trap.
February came and went. The snow started to melt. Princessa was a busy girl. One day I saw her – her coat glistening in the sun. I made a note to add more sunflower seeds to my diet. Sometime in February she lost her collar.
The residents were wonderful. They called with every sighting. They helped man the feeding station and the trap. One resident that was helping us took this picture, as she warmed herself by a vent on the side of a condo.
She was now very comfortable in this quiet neighborhood and would be seen five or ten times a day. Our phones were busy, but our trap was not.
March arrives. The snow starts to melt and the Princess is enjoying rolling on bare patches of grass in the sunshine. And suddenly a bunch of us had the same idea at the same time. Maybe we just needed a bigger trap! The snow had melted away from the gates of the tennis court. The wonderful Avondale property manager opened it up for us and offered to keep her food bowl filled. He moved it progressively into the tennis court – a little bit at a time, so she didn't get suspicious of our plan. I was envisioning tennis players in August having to jump a small, fat dog as they dove for the ball.
But – thankfully, it didn't take that long. On March 10th we got the call. A lady walking by had seen her in the tennis courts eating from her bowl and had snuck up and shut the gate.
And so the story of the Pewaukee Princess came to an extremely happy ending. No frostbite, no medical problems. An 8 lb dog that lived outside for four months through a brutally cold Wisconsin winter. She spent a few days in rehabilitation with one of our Lost Dogs of Wisconsin volunteers, Kathie D; but then came right back around to being a Couch and Lap Princess. Princessa gave us memories to last a lifetime plus another success story to encourage owners of lost dogs to Never, Ever Give Up.
A huge thank you to the residents and management of the Avondale and Stillwater condominium subdivisions, the staff and management at the Thunder Bay Grille, the Mobil station, the Machine Shed restaurant and the Radisson hotel; the staff at the AT&T building; BREW Midwest for the loan of a trap; Mark H at HAWS; and to the wonderful members of Lost Dogs of Wisconsin – Carlene and Becca H, Kathie D, Larry D, Susan T and Carol S, and my husband, all of whom manned the trap, delivered flyers, concocted wild schemes, and commiserated with me during the entire process.

How Are We Doing? Year to Date October 2014
The Top Five Reasons Shelters Should Post Pictures of Lost and Found Pets on Facebook
5. Shelters that post pictures and flyers of lost and found pets on Facebook generate goodwill, positive press and donations.
4. Shelters will elevate their reputation in the community from "dogcatcher" to compassionate life-savers. Since "stray" contracts are funded with taxpayer money, they will show that they are using their funds wisely.
3. Pictures and information about lost and found pets are widely shared. This will increase a shelter's Facebook "edgerank" making their other posts appear more frequently in their supporters newsfeeds, generating more adoptions and donations. We will also share some of your posts to our 40,000 plus Facebook fans, increasing visibility for your shelter.
2. Since an estimated 40 – 60% of animals in shelters are lost pets, proactively working to get them home by posting pictures will reduce overcrowding and disease, and free up kennel space for needier animals.
1. And the NUMBER ONE reason that shelters should post pictures of lost and found pets on Facebook? Because it makes reunions like this happen. Need we say more?
Reunited ~Oreo the German Shepherd/Poodle mix from#Milwaukee in Milwaukee County. Oreo was at MADACC. A LDoW volunteer called to let the owner know he was there. Oreo is a very good example of making sure that you check out every possible match in person, because sometimes shelters get the details wrong. Based on what the owner was told on the phone, she may never have gone to check. But our volunteer encouraged her to check in person, and it was Oreo! Congrats and welcome home Oreo!! (Lost 07-21-14, Reunited 08-04-14)
Thank you to all of the shelters who do post pictures and share flyers of lost and found pets on your Facebook page. YOU are saving lives.

Helping Lost Pets (HeLP) Can Help Your Shelter Reunite Pets and Families
Why would a shelter want to improve their RTO (Return To Owner) rate?
Goodwill, positive press and donations are generated when an animal control agency or shelter takes a proactive approach to reuniting lost pets with their families. Heartwarming stories and photos (easily posted on Facebook) elevate the reputation of the facility from "dog catcher" to compassionate life-savers. Plus, of course, getting lost pets out of the shelter and back home frees up resources for shelter staff and volunteers to help those animals that are truly homeless.
Whether your shelter is already proactively helping owners to find their missing pet or expect the owner to come to your shelter to check every few days Helping Lost Pets (HeLP) can assist you and your community.
HelpingLostPets.com (HeLP) has built the much needed solution to connect shelters, veterinary clinics, volunteer groups, pet rescues and every pet business together so that everyone can access the same lost and found listings. It's FREE for all and its map based.
Here are the TOP 6 Reasons Your Shelter should join:
1) HeLP provides a means for people anywhere, anytime to search for their missing pet. Shelter Found Listings, Public Found, Adoptable, Deceased and Sightings are all available.
2) Well organized and experienced volunteers and volunteer groups, such as Lost Dogs of Wisconsin, are already using HeLP in conjunction with their Facebook Page and other means to get pets home.
3) No double entry needed. The purpose of HeLP is not to replace your current systems, but to connect to them automatically. For smaller shelters with no system, it means they can now have technology they could never afford.
4) FAST and EASY Setup. Your shelter can be set up in just a few minutes to begin to take advantage of Public Lost Listings, reducing the number of Lost Reports you need to take over the phone. Automating your Found Listings can be done at a later date and will depend upon your current system. Our software and services to your shelter are always FREE.
5) Eliminating County and Municipal Borders means Pet Owners and Volunteers save time. This increases the pets that will get home and also decreases the time they will be in your shelter.
6) Pet Owners can provide additional Private Contact Information Available only to Shelters and Veterinarian Clinics. You can access this information as soon as your shelter joins using this link: www.HelpingLostPets.com/ORG . For pets that have invalid microchip registration information or no microchip or tags, this allows your shelter to quickly connect.
Together, we can help more lost pets get home!

Episode 4 of my Mysterion sci-fi comic.
About this creation
The L.S.S. Beko, researchship of the U.M.R.C. arrived station 77, a supply and trade center at border of earth alliance space. While the crew starts with exigent ship repairs, Captain Josh Carnway and Commander Calak enters the space station.
"Calak, why looking so depressive? We need this break. Go to a bar and amuse yourself for some hours."
"Amusing while Mysterions probably plan a war? That's not logical, sir."
Suddently, a young man welcomes them.
"Carnway, right? Oh yeah, i heard of your heroic adventures. You would have killed a whole Mysterion starshutter fleet, people say. But, Mr. LaCros sent me. He awaits you in the M.F.Z.P.E.S.S.S.C.A.P.S.-section. Please, follow me."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Franc LaCros is here at this station?? I thought, he works on the U.M.R.C. on earth."
Franc LaCros:
"Oh, Carnway! Welcome, good to see you. Look this, amazing, not? It's a Mega Fusion Zero Point Energy Subspace Singularity supported Collector for Anti-Positron Substanc,)the same Blacktron technology like at home, but Johnson's is a more modern version and doesn't need the giant space like this to create energy. By the way, the reactor supports the whole station. But that's not why im here."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Come to point."
Franc LaGros:
"Listen. Three months ago, object 600 entered this star system and circled around planet Dar'fak. From former encounters with it, the people knew, that it would rest some days to collect minerals from the asteroid belt of the planet. The workers of station 77 observated it and instead of contacting us, they tried to catch that lame thing this time. They had luck to create some kind of a trap and hoped to sell it to the Blacktrons for much money. Fortunately, they weren't interested, so we were called. The U.M.R.C. sent me to proove that. And it's right, we have a living..., i mean activated Mysterion object. It's prisoned in hangar 8 on the other side of the station. The canopy didn't open yet but tried to break the lasercage without success."
Cpt. Carnway surprised:
"You did what? Prisoned it? That's not what the U.M.R.C. is wanting to do. Maybe there's a pilot inside, or another kind of lifeform. We haven't the right to deny them human rights. We're not in war."
"Three months? Fascinating. That's just the point of time when the Mysterions dissapeared and started to build up their fleet."
Cpt. Carnway:
"One of them disappeared, and they united to start a backstrike. That makes sense. I want to see that object, now!"
Meanwhile at hangar 8 ...
Radio moderator:
"Space News. Good day out there! It's 12:33. Mars: after a referendum the planet is now called Snickers. Earth: President Clarkson's office affirmed, that a new defence fleet of about 40 standart and deluxe Battle cruisers are ordered and will be build in just a few weeks to support earth alliance defence. It was also decided that the newest additional tax income from governmental copyrights will be invested in the construction of the Athene-class stardestroyer fleet. That were the news and now back to music..."
The worker awakes...
and wonders...
Carnway comes too late...
Cpt. Carnway takes a communicator quickly:
"Oh gods, it has escaped. Carnway at Beko!! LeGonze, a Mysterion is running on the station. Can you...?"
Lt. LeGonze:
"The ship sensors receive much, but to specify i need help of the station local security system. I'll go to the control center, be right back."
While the lieutenant is running, the object invades the main promenade...
Finally, Lt. LeGonze contacts the captain from the control center:
"Sir, the station scanners have found it. It's in sector E8 now!"
"Sector E8? But we are in sector E8 now?!"
Calak and LaGros get separated from the captain. The object turns to him.
Commander Calak:
"Sir, i call help!"
Calak has run to the control center:
"Captain? We follow you on on the computer system. Where is the object now?"
Cpt. Carnway:
"Just behind me! Oh god, that's impossible... It seems that it used the station's technology and transformed itself into...something different. It's a complete new object."
Something is lifted out of the mech...
"Oh oh, i think, that's a gun. It wants to kill me!"
The others are following the captain's run on their screens.
"Captain, can you receive us? Captain? What's happening? The object must destroyed the station's defence systems. We only have control over the comm and secondary systems."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Ahhhhh!! Help me!"
"In the captains area there's just the lock alpha-B. He's trapped..."
"...There's no way to escape."
Suddently, the captain has an idea...
Cpt. Carnway:
"Calak, do you still hear me? Are you able to control the locks?"
Commander Calak:
"Yes, Sir."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Open gate alpha-B immediately!"
Commander Calak:
Cpt. Carnway:
Object 700 is blasted out by decompression...
Franc LaGros:
"Carnway, all right with you?"
Commander Calak:
"It was able to transform into another object? Fascinating. Maybe this could explain, why we never found two Mysterion versions twice."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Thanks for asking, i'm well, Calak. You're right, but how we can say, if this transformation mode is a basic ability of all Mysterions or just a special skill of object 600? By the way, where is it now?"
Lt. LeGonze:
"It dissapeared on all scanners. It must have left the star system right after leaving the station. We are not able to follow."
Cpt. Carnway:
"Good. Maybe the agressiveness of their fleet stops after we left it free. Finish the rest repairs of the ship and then we'll return to earth with LaGros. Too bad that we wasn't able to solve this riddle."
What are the real abilities of object 600? Are 600 and 700 really the same encounter? How did it break its cage? Is the prisoning the reason for the recent hostile encounters or just another found? We may never know, but the crew of the L.S.S. Beko will travel further for finding answers...

Quoting Yuri Fassio
Your best Mysterion episode so far... so that's why the war started, huh? Fascinating. And how's research on the "Mysterion Array" coming?
As soon as you mention it in an episode, I'll use it in an ArcheoGenis mecha...
1)Luckily, the next one is a crossover episode involving Archeogenis help the U.M.R.C. so i could mention the research shortly as exchange effort, but it's up to you what they discovered, i have no idea and have to tell my own storyline. But you maybe create the first part of that crossover, where Dr. Lentz use the results for your next mech and combine a scene to my episode. That would be the perfect cliffhanger to link both mocs together as real crossover. Would you do that? 2)The war? Well, i wouldn't solve the main plot in episode 3 of a series, or?

Oooh! Me like! Espceially Object 700. Using the techniques you did, it must've been really tricky to actually make it look any good. If I was attempting that, it'd have to go into Yuri's Worst MOCs group most likely.

Light Lessons
A master of technique walks us through a series of situations and explains how to craft illumination
The exposure was 50% candlelight and 50% flash light. The gray balance was in between the two color temperatures (about 4000 K). The candles appeared warm, and the flash light already turned a little blue. No color filters were required. Try different time (aperture) variations.
The bare bulbs below the acrylic had to be at a very low intensity. They shouldn't overpower the candles. I used two Grafit A2s at the lowest possible settings (15 joules each).
Image 5
A strictly diffused lighting. The bare-bulb flash heads were directed away from the model to avoid any direct light on her. Use the white walls of your studio to bounce the light back. Whenever your walls are dark or colored, they should be covered with white paper, polystyrene or cloth.
Diffused lights are generally low in color saturation. Choose the object or the outfit accordingly. To avoid further reduction of saturation and brilliance, protect the lens carefully from scattered light.

Hilary Duff
Everything's bigger in Texas, which might explain Hilary Duff's Lone Star large showbiz ambitions. It all started when she and her sister, Haylie, took dance and singing lessons and pirouetted their way through the 1993 San Antonio ballet's Nutcracker Suite run. Her mom relocated the sisters to California that same year although things didn't really take off until 1998 when Duff, with some commercials under her belt, got friendly in Caspar Meets Wendy. She almost gave up in 2000 after she was dropped from the cast of Daddio before it aired. Good thing she didn't because later that year she got the lead in Disney's Lizzie McGuire series, which eventually drew two million viewers per episode, spawned a lucrative merch line and a movie that grossed more than $50 million at the box office and made the perky blonde a tween icon. She released several pop CDs including the No. 1 Metamorphosis, created a clothing line called Stuff By Hillary Duff in 2004, a fragrance, starred in non-Disney films like A Cinderella Story after her break from the Mouse House in 2003, appeared in the video game, The Sims 2: Pets and write two young adult novels, Elixir and Devoted. After getting plenty of tabloid ink for her relationships with Aaron Carter (which sparked a love triangle with Lindsay Lohan) and Joel Madden (who was significantly older and quickly moved on with Nicole Richie), she found marital bliss with hockey player Mike Comrie in 2010. The pair welcomed son Luca in 2012.

Names to match unusual DD's name
Started by VickiLong , Nov 15 2012 05:45 PM

Posted 15 November 2012 - 05:45 PM
Hi, Well, my daughters name in itself is not unusual, but for a girl I think it is.Her name is Dylan, Dylan Kate. We are expecting another baby and while I'm not particularly a fan of unusual sounding or spelt names I think if we chose something along the lines of Lisa or Mark the Dylan's name will be the odd one out. To make things even more difficult I like the idea of having a "y" in the name.I am thinking Peyton (for a girl) and Lakyn (for a boy)I would love anyone's honest (I'm not easily offended) opinions and/or suggestions. Another name I like is Chase (for a boy) but our surname has a "s" sound at the end - think Curtis so it may be too "S" ey.Thanks in advance, looking forward to your replys x
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:00 PM
No offense intended but if I had to guess I would have thought Peyton sounded slightly manlier than Lakyn. Due to Peyton Manning, probably. Peyton works on a girl even more often, but Lakyn is girlier, IMO than either it or Dylan.
Tyriq, Tyrese, Tyrone, etc.
Lark, Lilac

Avery or Rowan would work for a girl.
*proceeds to hand over my name nerd license*
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:08 PM
Super, super nerdy and weird but I've been liking Gwyneira recently despite not being Welsh at all myself. Welsh is awesome for y's.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:09 PM
I think Dylan and Peyton sound great together. It's not to girlie iykwim?!
I'm not sure of a boys name. Lakyn is nms but doesn't sound bad. Maybe a unisex name to keep in theme but not too feminine.... I love unisex names!
Eta: what about something like Flynn?
Edited by TarneeW, 15 November 2012 - 06:10 PM.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:11 PM
Ryder, Kaycee, Taylah???
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:52 PM
I like Peyton. Lakyn is not my style - but I don't think it's bad.
I like Ryder for a boy and Avery for a girl as other PPers have suggested!
If you like names containing a Y and like Chase - I have seen it spelt Chayse.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 06:59 PM
My sil's kids are Brya and Nikia. Different but nice.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 07:07 PM
Posted 15 November 2012 - 07:07 PM
I like Dylan and Peyton as sisters!
Others for a girl:
Not keen on Lakyn or Chase, I'll try to come back with other boy options...
Posted 15 November 2012 - 07:19 PM
I think Peyton works well, perfect match.
For a boy, Lakyn is NMS. What about
Posted 15 November 2012 - 07:23 PM
I like Peyton, but strongly dislike Lakyn.
Edited by littleboysmum, 15 November 2012 - 07:23 PM.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 07:26 PM
How about Darcy or Jordan for a girl? I liked the suggestion Avery as well for either sex.
Boys - hmm can't think of any at the moment will come back to you...
Edited by MissButtercup, 15 November 2012 - 07:27 PM.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 08:03 PM
I really like Lakyn. I prefer it without the y though (Laken)
I like Peyton too.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 09:49 PM
Peyton goes well, I've only heard girls named Laken
Chase would go ok I think with the surname
Posted 15 November 2012 - 09:54 PM
I think if we chose something along the lines of Lisa or Mark the Dylan's name will be the odd one out.
I think naming your daughter a name where she will be assumed to be a he until she corrects the misunderstanding far outweighs being "odd" in relation to her siblings names.
I have no ideas, sorry. we have completely opposite naming styles. Good luck in your search
Posted 15 November 2012 - 09:54 PM
I second the PP who said Rowan for a girl. Love it.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 10:33 PM
Cassidy could work well with Dylan, for a girl? Or Carys.
Casey, Cillian, Corbin, or Cormac for a boy.

Why do this?
Posted 16 November 2012 - 06:21 AM
I agree with PP. Just because you like a y in a name, please don't just insert it in at random. Chayse looks horrible!
If the OP REALLY wants a y in the name, and I don't really understand that naming protocol, just like I don't understand the Kardashians , choose a name that is spelt with a y traditionally. Like Dylan, which is a lovely name.
I also don't think there is a problem with having a traditional name, like Mark or Lisa, with a Dylan for a girl. My name is quite unique, and my sister had a top 10 70's girls name. No one ever said anything. Ever. If they had the answer would have been "my parents just chose names they liked". In fact one parent named me, the other named my sister.
Dylan and Chase (and I like Chase for a boy or girl) is my favourite of any of the combinations mentioned.
I'll also add Bryn - which can be a boy or girl.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 06:29 AM
Oh I like Bryn (I met Bryn Terfel once...swoon)
How about Quinn? For boy or girl?
Posted 16 November 2012 - 07:53 AM
I know sisters Dylan and Ivy. While Ivy is more obviously feminine, I still think they go nicely together.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 08:04 AM
Dylan and Finley?
Posted 16 November 2012 - 08:11 AM
My daughters name is Bryden. I love the name, I've never met another girl named Bryden although I've heard of a few boys with the name.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 08:17 AM
I thought of another name that might work-Romilly. It's an English surname.

About Me
I'm currently waiting tables. This means I have very little time on my hands to model and not a lot of money to do it with, which I don't enjoy. If you want to collaborate I need a 2 week advanced notice to take that day(s) off. I hope to see some old faces and a whole lot of new ones!
Take Care and God Bless!
SORRY!!! (ok, not really.)
Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.
No still means no just like you were taught as a toddler.
BUT...(yes there's a but)
I will do implied if an idea interests me and I have not done it before.
My definition of IMPLIED NUDITY: To pose with my naughty bits covered either with strategically placed props, me positioned in such a way that my naught bits are not exposed, or by carefully done editing where again my naughty bits are not on display.
If this does not suit your fancy that is super cool with me. Just dont ask me to work with you and expect TA&V. We shall continue to admire each others talents from afar.
Any questions. Raise your hand and wait to be called on its only fair. J/K! Drop me a note. I'm a really nice person so please don't be shy.
Be Safe!

Just a little tip...for ppl I haven't worked with before...
If anyone is interested in shooting me or posing with me for a shoot please please pretty please include the following information when you contact me because it would be nice to know.
Type of Shoot: style or general idea of what you what to shoot
Location: Where..duh
Compensation:(you to me or vice versa) TFP, TFCD, Paid, Combination
Will there be: MUA, Stylists-Fashion or Hair or not (perfectly capable of doing my own but it's just the basics)
This is important because if you don't tell me these things I won't respond to your message.
"The Natural Hair"
I would need a week notice before a shoot if a hairstyle other than my natural hair is desired. The week is for my beautician more than for me. She gets cranky when I show up with my kinks asking for a miracle.

NCIS Round Table: "A Desperate Man"by Steve Marsi at . Comments
Our NCIS review broke down the latest installment of TV's top-rated show in great detail.
Now, TV Fanatic staff members Steve Marsi, Matt Richenthal and Eric Hochberger have assembled for a weekly Round Table Q&A discussion of events from last Tuesday's episode, "A Desperate Man."
Join in below, as we analyze various aspects of Tony, Ziva, Ray and more ...
Describe this episode in one word (or two).
Steve: Emotionally complex.
Matt: Excellent.
Eric: Surprising.
What was your favorite quote or scene?
Steve: Det. Burris telling Tony and Ziva to cherish each other. What a perfect way to end an episode that took so many twists and turns - both emotionally and in terms of the investigation.
Matt: In a Tiva-centric week, any scene with the more mature, supportive Tony. It was fun to watch the conflicted DiNozzo be there for his friend, even as she potentially agrees to marry someone else.
Eric: Ray getting walloped at the end. If there was EVER a dude that had it coming!
Are Tony and Ziva getting too much screen time?
Steve: Abby, McGee and Ducky all have had memorable stories this season, but not as much lately. Gibbs, as the show's focal point and the team's leader, will always command the most attention and I doubt many fans are upset about that. But hopefully after two Tiva-centric episodes we will pivot back to some of the other team members in the coming weeks. We know there's Palmer's wedding, if nothing else. Hopefully there's another episode featuring Abby and her brother in store, as well as another love interest for McGee. Talk about a dry spell!
Matt: Not to me, because the story arc has been so good. Both Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly have delivered strong, nuanced performances of late, and their characters' relationship - which I express my opinion on below - has been a treat to watch. After these last two weeks, what's to complain about? Be patient, fans of McGee and Abby. Your time will come!
Eric: Sometimes I wonder if I'm watching The Ziva Show ... and bear in mind I love me some bad ass Ziva, so no real complaints. Still, more Abby writers!
Did you peg Ray as the killer?
Steve: Maybe I'm just naive but I actually did not connect Ray to the case very quickly. I assumed his proposal and whereabouts were simply concurrent with the investigation, not involved. I also believed Ziva would say yes to the proposal, only to second-guess herself and break off the engagement weeks later.
Matt: Yes, Ray was shady even by CIA standards.
Eric: It was reasonably well disguised by the writers, but the way it's been going these days, I half-expected he would be involved even before his name turned up on that slip of paper.
Do the team members get involved with too many murderers?
Steve: As I said in my review, I'd like to see the NCIS team members involved in some more steady relationships - either with each other or outsiders - that don't involve murderers.
Matt: Yes. As Eric said earlier, I almost expect it nowadays. A little stability wouldn't hurt. In Ray's case, though, it worked better than most, given what he does (or did) for a living.
Eric: Are they involved with more people with such inclinations than you or I? Definitely. But it's a TV show (and a great one at that) and these are criminal investigators so I'll buy it.
Do you want Tony and Ziva to get together?
Steve: This may sound like a cop out, but I don't care too much either way as long as the writing quality remains strong and their relationship evolves in a believable manner. That's more important to me than whether their romantic connection develops. And, as I said earlier, my biggest concern is that the other characters not be ignored.
Matt: Personally no. I think of Tiva as friends, or closer than that, but not romantic partners. It's more of a sibling type chemistry to me - nothing more, nothing less - and it's terrific. As is.
Eric: Yes. They don't need to rush it, but yes. How many more guest characters need to comment on the obvious chemistry before they open their eyes! It's gonna happen.

annie921 - In the "Gibbs Delivers" review is where he directs the "aren't smart" directly at me (one of the last comments, so easy to find). I do agree that fans can have all different points of view and still be fans. That's what makes reading the comments fun -- and I've read many more but have even been involved in a few back and forth opinions of what some episode of one show or another meant at TV Fanatic. I would like to think that the comments are for the sharing of enthusiasms and, yes, the frustrations of our favorite shows as well -- except as a sharing and not an alienation.
Well I guess I missed the post where Michael accused someone of not being smart for not sharing his views, and I've heard many posters use the - you're not a real fan if . . . . argument. But IMO of those types of comments are inappropriate to me.
hi editor hows everything with you loved your comment,yes i know we should ignore michael and his lies but i for one cant.anyway loved this episode it had a bit of everything and with over 21million viewers the people at NCIS are doing something right.
annie921 -- It is Michael who says all the time that if you don't agree with him you "aren't smart." He also says you must agree with him or you aren't a "real fan." Don't ever criticize anyone for responding to his hatred of everyone! The people who comment are not garbage for Michael to stomp on while we lay palm fronds in front of him.
Is no one here familiar with how these shows go? Bellisario's long-running "JAG"'s main couple, Harm and Mack, were teased continuously throughout the entire series of the show, and were not definitively and "officially" together until the last 5 or so minutes of the last show in the series.
This is how I think Tony and Ziva will come together - in a similar fashion.
And personally, I think that's the best way to do it.
While I don't always understand Michael's comments, he has a right to have an opinion that differs from others and not be insulted. I too find ZIva's over done super skills and her holier than thou attitude an irritant and a real drag to the show. And there are others who feel this way as well. It's fine with me though if other fans love Ziva. But to me, the focus on this strangely written character diminishes the quality of the show. Personal attacks and bickering by posters don't win arguments or flatter anyone.
Not only is Michael right he also not a sheep like so many fans and accpted the crap were getting Come on REAL NCIS fans let stand togther and tell The writer to BRING BACK NCIS.....
KimBrady, Thanks for the whop upside my head. I take every thing back that I wrote earlier, just one of those days! This is the only show I watch. I do want to see more McAbby!!!! (and less of Tiva)
Lynn - you are a bit like Michael
If you don't like Tony, Ziva and Palmer turn off the damn show and go watch
something you actually like ! Good lord .....
Yes, stupid Michael is a 'dick' - but I have it on good authority from people in the know who have heard of Michael and his comments since - well, forever, that that "dick" is really a "jane" and has always spouted this hatred How sad - but how clever that everyone realizes just who and what he/she is .... Round Table guys - wonderful reviews - always. You must ACTUALLY watch the show because you can tell! The only thing I disagree with you, STEVE and MATT, is yes, of course Tony and Ziva should get together. All these years have been leading up to it and if it doesn't happen - what a completed let down. I totally loved A Desperate Man. Was glad to see the last of CIRay - that rotten killer - It was also wonderful to see the end of ej the week before. Perhaps now we CAN get some Team interaction for the rest of the season.

Field of the Invention This invention relates to waste containers commonly found and used in homes, offices, snack bars and similar locations where packaged food is consumed and diverse classes of garbage are generated, and more particularly relates to containers used to hold various types of refuse in multiple stack or side-by-side units. 2. Description of the Prior Art Currently, waste containers used for recycling purposes, for the most part, have been adapted from existing units for the use of plastic bags, but common practice is to discard all classifications of trash into one container where it will eventually have to be retrieved and sorted or otherwise several separate containers are required. Since the mounting urgency of the need to recycle, multiple compartmentalized containers have been described in the art and are more widely used. But in order to separate trash for recycling, usually several side-by-side containers are used and the resulting amount of floor space is prohibitive in many situations. Multiple stackable units require considerable space and are not particularly attractive in the home or office environment. Space in modern homes and business is at a premium. The need for separation of trash, aluminum, steel, clear and colored glass, plastic and paper is paramount today, since over half the states require recycling under law and the U.S. Senate is considering making it mandatory in all fifty states. In order for recycling to effectively work, it must be made convenient for the consumer at the point packaging is opened and the trash is generated. Further, the space required for the container used to sort and hold the trash must be kept as small as possible yet with adequate capacity to accomplish the desired results. And, the unit must be of suitable construction and appearance to be accepted in the environment in which it is to be used. This invention fills all the above requirements. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This invention is a single vertical compartmentalized container unit for sorting and holding trash for recycling purposes, utilizing air space rather than floor space, embodying several sloping rhomboid compartments, one above the other, facilitating front drop-in loading and each accommodating approximately 50% larger volume than a level rectangular compartment occupying the same floor space. The bottom compartment, unlike those above it, has a flat floor for stacking newspapers. A core embodiment of this invention is a means for securing plastic bags in the individual sloping rhomboid compartments so as to be accessible for filling from the front of the container comprising a unique set of upper and lower dull hooks that hold the bags in an open position. The hooks are devised to allow the use of standard plastic kitchen trash bags with tops rolled and tucked behind the retainer as well as accommodating the possible use of special plastic bags with grommet holes to slip over the hooks for optimum ease of placement. A further important embodiment, a hinged pull-down door, on each compartment is easily activated by a handle and magnetic latching closure with the dual purpose of isolating trash odor and also serves to position and move lower mounting hooks moving lower side of bag opening in such manner as to lay open bags fully to form easy access when the door is opened, and pulling up to partially close the bag to prevent spillage as the door is closed. Weather-proof construction indicates use on patios and in carports, as dictated by circumstances or convenience, further allowing for flush in-wall installation in new construction and remodeling, protruding only a few inches beyond the outside wall and requiring only a rough opening and furnished extruded trim strip. It is an object of this invention to provide a structure for sorting and holding in plastic bags, a wide range of trash materials for recycling in a single compact unit with a pleasing appearance, with the minimum amount of space required, thereby so adaptable to serving the needs that it will generally further the practice of recycling. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the compartmentalized trash sorting/holding unit of the present invention showing one of the sloping rhomboid compartments with doors open exposing the four upper bag retainer hooks, the door limit/spill shield machanism and the magnetic closure. The lowest opening is the flat newspaper storage. FIG. 2a is a side view of a sloping rhomboid compartment with the front door open and shows the bag retainer hooks, advantageously positioned, a set of four across the top immediately inside the door frame and a second set of four approximately half way up the inside of the door. Also shown is the bottom flat open compartment. FIG. 2b is a perspective view with part of the side and the door removed to further define the sloping rhomboid compartment. FIG. 3 shows details of the bag retainer hooks. FIG. 3a shows an upper hook with a special grommeted bag installed. FIG. 3b illustrates a lower hook mounted on the door with the a generic plain top bag rolled and inserted in the hook. FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a doors opened, with bags installed, further illustrating the location of the upper bag retainer hooks on the lower edge of a shelf and the lower hooks on the inside of the door which pull the lower edge of the bag down and outwardly, open wide when the door is opened. FIG. 4a shows a single bag installed using four upper and four lower hooks and FIG. 4b shows two bags installed using two upper and two lower hooks for each bag. FIG. 5 illustrates the container flush mounted in a wall. The invention will be described in connection with a preferred embodiment, but it will be understood that I do not intend to limit the invention to that embodiment. On the contrary, I intend to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalents as may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Turning first to FIG. 1 there is shown the vertical unitized compartmentalized trash sorting/holding container of the present invention comprising side, back, bottom and top members fixed together and a front comprised of several pull-down doors 2. The interior of the container is divided into several sloping rhomboid compartments 3, one over the other, for receipt and holding in plastic bags, aluminum, steel, colored and clear glass, plastic and paper materials. The lowest compartment 4 for receipt of newspapers has a flat floor. The doors 2 of each compartment operate on hinges 5 at the bottom and provide mounting for lower dull hook bag retainers 14. A door limit/spill shield 6 comprising the means to limit the open position of a door by a slide in a slot in the shield and a stop 7 mounted on the cabinet limiting the open position of the door to the same angle as the bottom of the sloping rhomboid compartment forming a chute effect to facilitate loading. The limit/spill shield 6 further provides means to prevent bags fouling in the door opening, keeping them within the compartment. Further, a handle 8 is located on the face of the door 2. A means of latching is provided by a two part magnetic mechanism comprised of a magnet 9 at the front underside of the top of each compartment 3 and a ferrous metal plate 16 attached to the top inside of the door. FIG. 2 reveals the core of this invention, a typical sloping rhomboid compartment 3, formed by flat shelves 10 retained in a position sloping 45 degrees from front to back inside of the cabinet. This sloping rhomboid configuration provides approximately 50 percent more depth than a level rectangular compartment of the same width occupying the same floor dimension. Therefore, the sloping rhomboid compartment provides approximately 50% more capacity in the same floor space. The slope further facilitates loading, with the trash naturally falling by gravity to the bottom and rear of the compartment. A further enhancement of the embodiment of the vertical sloping rhomboid compartment configuration is, the top of each compartment becomes the floor of the next, further compacting space in the vertical rather than spread out as in side-by-side or clustered arrangements. The door 2 is shown in the open position to illustrate its chute effect and the location of the lower bag retainer hooks 14 seen in the next figure. Turning to FIG. 3 there is shown in detail the unique dull hook bag retainers, identical, except the upper 13, FIG. 3a and the lower 14, FIG. 3b, are mounted opposed and facing front to receive a bag and are ribbed on the inner side providing means to secure plastic bags open for front loading as opposed to conventional top loading. Further detail shows a special grommeted bag 12 installed on an upper hook retainer 13, FIG. 3a and the alternative generic plain top bag 15 installed on a lower hook retainer 14, FIG. 3b. The dull hook bag retainers 13 and 14 are spaced advantageously to secure the plastic bags, open end facing front in a gaping position at each door frame. During use, one would insert a special bag 12 with properly spaced grommet holes pressed over each of the retainer hooks 13. However, as previously mentioned, a presently available generic 13 gallon plastic trash bag with plain top 15 can be used, by rolling the top a few turns and tucking it in behind the hooks the scoring will securely retain the bag. Removal in both cases is accomplished by merely lifting the bag off the hooks. Each bag can be installed or replaced without interfering with another. FIG. 4 shows either one bag FIG. 4a or two bags FIG. 4b installed in a single compartment. Where convenience indicates, one could install two bags in a single compartment using just two upper and two lower hooks on each; for example, when it is desirable to sort and hold both steel and aluminum cans and/or colored or clear glass in a single compartment using separate bags, offering maximum sorting possibilities. Finally, turning to FIG. 5, the rectangular exterior configuration of the container allows flush mounting through a wall in a rough framed opening and finished inside and out with an extruded trim strip 17, provided. The unit will protrude only a few inches on the other side of the wall offering the ultimate in space saving. From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that modifications can be made to the apparatus without departing from the teaching of the present invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is only to be limited as necessitated by the accompanying claims. * * * * *
