After 22 years, WYES-TV's general manager retiring
Randall Feldman, the president and general manager of WYES since 1990, will leave the New Orleans PBS affiliate at the end of 2012. He saw the station through 22 years of unprecedented change, from the advent of new technologies to the rebuilding required when failed-levee floodwaters inundated the station after Hurricane Katrina.
With his successor already hired (Allan Pizzato, former executive director of Alabama Public Television), Feldman took time to reflect on his tenure in a recent phone interview.
"There were plenty of big changes during my time at WYES, but one important thing didn't change at all," Feldman said. "A public broadcasting station only works if it reflects the community it serves. That was our mission before I arrived. It will be our mission under my successor."
A native of Philadelphia, Feldman came to WYES after five years as a station manager in Texas, and a string of broadcasting jobs in New York, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Indiana. Louisiana wasn't completely new territory for Feldman, however. About half of his family hails from New Orleans. His wife, physician Madelaine Hedgepeth, is a native of the city. Even so, Feldman did a lot of listening when he arrived here, whether meeting with volunteers at the annual WYES auction, or flying to Washington, D.C., for a sit-down with then U.S. Sen. John Breaux.
"Breaux put me on the right course," Feldman said. "He said that the station should work to conserve Louisiana's unique history and culture. I took his advice to heart and institutionalized it."
Feldman pointed to scores of locally produced programs that originated with WYES. They range from the nationally distributed cooking shows of chefs Paul Prudhomme and John Besh, to the long string of popular history programs about New Orleans streets, ethnic communities and lost landmarks, including "New Orleans Restaurants with a Past," which won the only regional Emmy in the historical documentary category in 2011.
"We aren't the only regional station to create this kind of programming, but as a staff, I think we have a deeper connection to the local culture than you would find in other places - and that also reflects the outlook of our community," he said.
For Feldman, that feeling was confirmed after Katrina, when WYES peppered its schedule with programs from its archive of local productions.
The staff showed me what to do with their passionate insistence that we would come back...
"What we heard from viewers repeatedly was their joy that we still had these programs, that the work hadn't been flooded, and that New Orleans still had its culture and its history," Feldman said.
In 2005, foodwaters devastated the station. Five feet of water filled the broadcast and administrative areas in the station's 1957 headquarters in Lakeview.
"After the flood, I was looking at the grim truth. I saw that we had a huge mountain to climb," Feldman said. "It would have been easy to talk despairingly, but the staff showed me what to do with their passionate insistence that we would come back, that we would be here. That helped me see that my job wasn't to talk about reality, but to give hope."
Hope worked at WYES. This fall, the station completed a new, 20,000-square-foot building to house technical gear. Feldman said that the station will soon announce the public phase of a fundraising drive to complete a new administrative building.
Some of the station's biggest successes in the Feldman years didn't involve bricks and mortar.
He led the station into the digital world of HD broadcasting and helped it establish a vibrant online presence. He encouraged entrepreneurial thinking at the nonprofit, transforming it into a service provider for sports teams, music festivals and other groups with broadcast needs. WYES owns two 18-wheel mobile units and has a client list that ranges from the Los Angeles Lakers to Essence Music Festival. About 56 percent of revenue for the foundation that runs WYES now comes from such business activities.
WYES also has expanded its community outreach efforts under Feldman, reaching about 10,000 people each year. The station has presented exhibits at the Louisiana Children's Museum and the Kenner Science Center, and often works with schools to provide curriculum enrichments. In addition, the station leads seminars for day care providers on how they can use PBS programs to promote literacy.
"Most of the new things that we have accomplished began as staff initiatives," Feldman said. "That's the real legacy that Allan Pizzato will inherit when he takes over. My main job was always to encourage, facilitate, and nudge things to the finish line."

17.09.06 - By Jeffrey Cabauatan: - Four great fights in one night. A fight fan could not ask for anything better. When the last time you purchase a boxing ppv that was was worth every penny from a fourth rounder preliminary bout up to the main event? The night kicked off with Jorge Paez Jr. winning a majority decision over Derrick Campos. Jorge Paez Jr. seemed to be in complete control of the bout in the first two rounds as he raised his hands after he threw combination and even putting Campos down in round 2.. But a determined Campos would rise up from the dead and dug deep to knockdown Paez in the final second of the bout. This was highly competitive bout where a draw would have been the right call but Paez got the nod.
Next stop is Jorge Barrios vs. Joan Guzman. Barrios inability to make weight made him ineligible to walk out with the WBO Super Featherweight title. Both men made no hesitation pulling out their best punches in the first four rounds. In the 5th round, Joan Guzman was able to solve Barrios relentless attack with crisp counter punching. By round 6, it seemed as if Barrios punches no longer had the same effect it had in the earlier rounds. Maybe draining himself out had something to do with it but he did not quit. He pursued Guzman up to bitter end where he rocked Guzman backed against the rope in the final 30 seconds of the bout but no longer have the punching power to finish him off. Guzman was so patient with his attack and so efficient with his punches that it intrigues me how he will match up with other elites of the 130 pounder. Guzman escaped with a hard fought 12 round split decision.
I thought I just saw a possible candidate for fight of the year until I saw this one. If not, then this must be considered for come back of the year. For the first 6 rounds, Gonzales tactically controlled Vasquez with his jab and his left hook which he knocked down Vasquez with in round 4 and 6. Although Vasquez was losing all of the first 6 rounds, he kept clawing and clawing himself inside. Finally in round 7, Gonzales wild swing enabled Vasquez to counter with a right to the jaw that knocked Gonzales down. His legs were gone at that point. I have to give it up to Gonzales because in the next 3 rounds, he fought with pure heart. I had no idea how he was able to finish round 7 and round 8 after being knocked down again. In round 10, a left hook from Vasquez sent him down again for the third time but would get up. In the dismay of Larry Merchant, Gonzales trainer stopped the fight. Merchant made a reference that it was reminiscence of Taylor vs. Chavez but theres really no comparison. Yes, Gonzales was ahead on points but there were still 2 rounds left. Gonzales legs left his body 3 rounds ago and his body language says it all. It was the right call.
As expected, Barrera would box Juarez for the entire 12 rounds. I saw this coming when GBP made a stipulation that Juarez cannot wear Reyes Gloves. There is a reason for everything. GBP and Barrera knew that Juarez stands no chance in a boxing match but can hurt you with one punch so minimizing ones power is an option.
In an excitement level, this fight was nowhere near the previous three. However, in an amazement level, this fight gets a high praise from me. It is just amazing how Barrera was able neutralize a young lion like Juarez with his jab. He used his jab beautifully and kept Juarez in a safe distance all night long. Juarez was so frustrated that he was unable to catch the champ with his left hook.
People may not have like how Barrera won a safe unanimous decision by refusing to duke it out. But what do you want from the man who had given so much to the sport of boxing. Do you want him to go out there and force his body to do what it cannot anymore? He is 32 not 25. Barrera is smart enough to know when to change his style. He used his brain and experience to win a decisive bout this time. That is what great fighters do in order to prolong their time in the ring.

Olmert: Mistake to link Shalit release with Gaza truce
PM says Israel must choose between advancing talks on soldier's release and applying pressure on Hamas.
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has said in private conversations in recent weeks that it is a mistake to link the issue of kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit's release to the cease-fire in the Gaza Strip.
Olmert has told officials in meetings on the matter that Israel must choose between moving ahead on Shalit's release by applying massive pressure on Hamas - which might lead to the breakdown of the cease-fire and a renewal of Qassam fire on the Negev - and a freeze on the Shalit release and quiet in Sderot and the communities close to the Gaza Strip. Sources close to Olmert have said that as long as things are quiet, Hamas has no interest in moving ahead on releasing Shalit.
The sources have also criticized Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who pushed for a cease-fire at any cost, saying the cease-fire perhaps should have been delayed until progress was made on Shalit's release.
Senior defense officials familiar with the details of the talks over Shalit's release are critical both of Egypt, which is mediating talks between Hamas and Israel, and the cease-fire. "The Egyptians are being lazy and Hamas has no will to move ahead. Everything is stuck," a senior figure said.
According to these officials, the solution might come either from a change in approach by the Egyptians - which does not appear to be at hand - or by embarking on military and other operations in the Gaza Strip, so that Hamas will understand that if there is no progress on the Shalit release, the cease-fire will not continue.
"Without serious mediation and real pressure, this will not work," the official said.
Egyptian intelligence chief Omar Suleiman is continuing his contacts with Hamas, but in recent weeks the talks have dealt mainly with relations between Hamas and Fatah in the Strip. Meanwhile, Olmert has been given a list of 450 names of prisoners Israel has agreed to release in exchange for Shalit.
However, a senior minister familiar with the list and the talks said a solution is not close at the moment. According to the minister, the chance that Hamas will accept a list that includes only 220 of the names it submitted to Israel, and a similar number that Israel is proposing to release, is small.
"It's not at all certain that if we agreed to release everyone they wanted us to at first they would agree," the minister said. "I don't see how the matter will be solved in the next six months."
Israel was considering publishing the names of the prisoners it is willing to release in order to create pressure on Hamas from Palestinian families. However, the idea has been shelved for now out of concern over possible protests by Israelis whose relatives were killed or injured in terror attacks perpetrated by these prisoners.

April 23, 2015
By Bill Hohlfeld
Anti-union rhetoric seems to flow readily these days in the main stream media. Also popular, are hand wringing laments about the dire future of unionism and its ever shrinking market share. A less frequently told narrative, however, is the story of the union contractors who see union labor as an advantage in the marketplace and an asset to their business.

NYC Wages Finally On The Upswing, But More Action Is Needed
April 21, 2015
By James Parrott Deputy Director and Chief Economist for the Fiscal Policy Institute
New York, NY - After years of wage declines, several signs are emerging of wage growth in New York City, according to a new report from the Fiscal Policy Institute.

According to the most recent data, average private hourly earnings increased 3.3 percent for the six months to February 2015 versus the same period a year ago. This is twice the annual average 1.6 percent gain from 2009 to 2013.

New York, NY - This year's budget process lived up to the old adage that laws are like sausages – it's better not to see them being made.

Costume Birthday Party
"Playing dress-up begins at five & never truly ends." -Kate Spade
I absolutely love playing dress up. I literally have three boxes full of costumes that I cannot seem to part with! People always have an excuse for not dressing up at theme parties, so for my birthday this year I decided to throw a "Halloween in Summer" themed party. Everyone can come up with at least SOME costume! I also took the opportunity to try some fun party decor ideas, like custom confetti from The Confetti Bar. Read on for more party pix & tips!
Custom confetti: The Confetti Bar
What can I say? I love myself some confetti glitter. Shoes: Nine West.
I created a simple DIY photo booth background using a white shower curtain, cardboard, gold spray paint, cardboard, and a hot glue gun, and made sure to have fun confetti on hand! Make It Rain Confetti: GAMAGO.
White corset bathing suit: American Apparel / Tulle skirt: Bel and Beau.
We made a bunch of gold banners with fun sayings. The letters were from a DIY banner kit at WalMart, then we just spray painted with gold and sprinkled on some glitter!
Mini chandeliers from ZGallerie (old) were recycled from our wedding.
Had a blast glamming up these mason jars! The all-over gold was achieved by simply spray painting a mason jar gold (easy). To get the dip dye glitter effect, we simply placed masking tape around the middle of the jar, painted Mod Podge along the bottom half, sprinked on glitter, and voila! Paper straws: Amazon.
Cut-out gold arrows (from posterboard) directed party-goers to the photo booth.
Gold flamingos (spray paint) and Y A Y balloons greeted guests. Gold balloons: StudioMucci on Etsy.
Thanks to all my amazing friends who humored me and played along! xoxo

Signed, SEALed, deliveredFebruary 18,2013
Stefan Hard / Staff Photo A fast-moving competitor does a slide under camouflage netting Sunday on Paine Mountain during the Brian Bill Memorial Challenge at Norwich University in Northfield. For more photos and a report, see page B1.
About 150 people willingly subjected themselves to an ordeal Sunday at Norwich University in Northfield to pay tribute to Norwich graduate Brian Bill, a Navy SEAL who was killed in Afghanistan, and to raise money for a Norwich scholarship in his name.
The challenge was tough, and so was the weather. But the cause was important.
When the roughly 6.5-mile military-style obstacle course race started just after 9 a.m., the temperature was 11 degrees, with strong winds making it feel much colder.
No matter — contestants ran up old ski slopes on Paine Mountain across from the college campus, clambered over logs, crawled on their bellies in the snow, fired paintball guns at targets, did pull-ups, lifted full ammo boxes over their heads, and encountered various other devices and obstacles on a journey designed to push the body to near exhaustion.
Water was provided at a couple of stations along the course, but this wasn't the type of race with volunteers offering hot chocolate, energy drinks and doughnuts.
Gavin Boyles, of Montpelier, finished the course in just over 2½ hours and said it was harder than the Spartan Race he ran in Pittsfield in the fall.
"The obstacles were harder," said Boyles, "and the cold ..." Boyles finished in the top tier and said he thoroughly enjoyed himself despite the frigid temperatures.
Jason Como, from Chicopee, Mass., powered through pain from two recent injuries, drawing on his Special Forces training and experience to complete the course in under 2½ hours and capturing all the action on a chest-mounted video recorder. Como said he wanted to honor Bill by competing in the race and said he is a member of the New England Spahtens, an organized obstacle course racing team, so doing this race seemed a no-brainer.
Several other members of the Spahtens competed, including Corrine Giordani, of Bridgewater, Mass., who was one of the top female finishers. She said the toughest part of the course was the steep climbs of Paine Mountain, a former college ski area.
Villanova University freshmen Sean Mulligan and Tom Brawley ran the course together and finished close to Como.
"I thought it sounded like fun, so we came up," said Mulligan.
"It was a good cause, so why not?" added Brawley.
At the halfway mark, many weary competitors were reduced to walking, but most kept going to complete the course. At the finish line each participant rang a brass bell and received a commemorative medal with the Navy SEALs symbol. Many members of naval services at Norwich helped set up and staff the race.
At least one member of Bill's family, sister Amy Kutney, of Cranford, N.J., competed in the race, accompanied by her husband, Chad Kutney. Bill's parents spoke at a ceremony after the race, and a post-race party was hosted by the race sponsor, the Knotty Shamrock in Northfield.

I am hoping to find someone who is really interested in me, and not what they can get from me or what's in it for them. They have to love kids, since I have mine with me most of the time, and understand that I do not get a lot of time to myself.

Elliott Comments Further on ISS Endorsement of Full Slate of Nominees to the Board of Hess ISS Provides a Principled and Unbiased Endorsement of Independent Shareholder Nominees ISS Joins Glass Lewis in Recommending Hess Shareholders Vote on the GREEN Proxy Card to Elect All Shareholder Nominees Business Wire NEW YORK -- May 3, 2013 Elliott Management Corporation ("Elliott"), one of the largest shareholders of Hess Corporation (NYSE: HES), commented further on the recommendation from ISS advising Hess shareholders to vote on the GREEN proxy card to support all of Elliott's independent nominees: Rodney Chase, Harvey Golub, Karl Kurz, David McManus and Mark Smith. ISS recommended that Hess shareholders "DO NOT VOTE" on the Company's white proxy card. John Pike, Senior Portfolio Manager at Elliott, said, "We are very pleased by the support from ISS, an enormously well respected, principled and unbiased shareholder advisory firm." Mr. Pike continued, "The endorsement from both ISS and Glass Lewis, the other premier independent proxy advisory firm, of a full slate of shareholder nominees is exceedingly rare. It makes the case, yet again, that after years of unrelenting underperformance – it's time for a change at Hess. Only truly independent nominees can bring the insight and expertise to reassess Hess with clear eyes, bring accountability to the boardroom, and help unlock the value that has been buried within the Company." ISS Report Details Ongoing Problems at Hess and Recommends for Independent Nominees In its report, ISS points out that shareholder returns during John Hess's tenure as CEO have been abysmal: "In the years leading up to the contest, Hess has substantially underperformed most of its peers. Despite the board's claim that a strategic turnaround begun in January 2010 has been responsible for the performance improvements in recent months, the stock lagged peers significantly through the date in January 2013 when Elliott announced it would run a contest. For the three-year period prior to Elliott's initial announcement it would nominate directors, Hess delivered an anemic 1.7% total shareholder return. This was 45 percentage points worse than the median of its peers, at 46.6%, and 44 percentage points worse than the S&P 500 index, at 46.2%. The five year period leading up to the Elliott announcement is slightly more grim on a relative basis, and far worse on an absolute basis. Hess shareholders lost 32.3% of value over the five-year period, performance which was 59 percentage points worse than peer group median, at 26.8%, and 56 percentage points worse than the S&P 500, at 24.1%." ISS also discussed the abject lack of capital discipline and history of poor execution at Hess: "Given the company's track record of losses in the Eagle Ford — $771 million by the time the company decided to exit the play — due to higher-than-expected costs and unanticipated additional capital expenditures, shareholders may well have concerns about the verifiable fact that drilling costs are significantly higher than peers, and the unsubstantiated and apparently unlikely assertion that shareholders are making it all up on volume." And the report called into question the sudden introduction of Hess's new slate of directors: "The board has framed the recent strategic announcements as the third phase of a multi-year transformational strategy simply accelerated, not prompted, by the proxy contest. But this seems belied by others of the boards' own actions, most notably the sweeping replacement of an entire class of directors—but only the class standing for election in this proxy contest. If the new nominees bring skills and experience critical to guiding the company through this purportedly pre-existing strategy, why, shareholders might well wonder, are they only being brought onto the board three years into the "transformation" process? Why wouldn't a board recruit such directors at the start not just of the execution, but of the design, of such a transformational strategic plan, when their skills and experience—sorely lacking on the board to that point—are so critical to the plan itself?" ISS also highlighted the independence of the shareholder nominees, in contrast with the Hess slate: "What distinguishes the slates on this issue, instead, is that the new management nominees appear to have already committed, as a condition of being nominated, to supporting the incumbent board's rejection of the idea, while the dissident nominees have only agreed that this is one of a number of proposals they would consider, once inside the boardroom and with access to the appropriate data, to improve management focus and durably increase shareholder value." ISS concluded its report by recommending that Hess shareholders vote their GREEN proxy card for the slate of independent shareholder nominees: "As the dissident nominees appear to have more relevant, robust experience—particularly boardroom experience—than the management nominees, but also do not owe any allegiance to the incumbent CEO and directors for their nominations, shareholder support for the dissident slate is warranted."

In order to ensure resources are ready and available when a pet arrives, Animal Humane Society requires those wishing to bring in a pet to schedule an appointment.
By allowing pet owners to be present at the time of the pet's evaluation for placement, owners can take an active role in the future of their pet. They know their pet better than anyone and can provide as much information as possible about the pet will:
Without an appointment process, we would have no control over the number of pets that come into our care each day. If everyone could walk in with a pet, without consideration for housing and resources available, our ability to provide the best possible care for each animal is hindered. Overcrowding leads to stress and illness in the shelter.
The Animal Humane Society provides services for cats, dogs, rabbits, domestic rodents (rats, mice gerbils, hamsters, chinchillas, degus), ferrets, hedgehogs, and small birds. We do not accept exotic pets (such as reptiles, large birds like cockatoos and amazons) or livestock (such as chickens, pigs, and goats). If you have an exotic pet or livestock, we can refer you to a rescue or other resource that might be able to help.
The local animal control agency is most likely the first place an owner will go to or contact when their pet goes missing. In order to give the pet its best chance to be reunited promptly with its owner, we recommend people finding a stray pet follow that same order and have animal control be their first point of contact.
Also, most cities provide animal control services for the purpose of capturing and housing animals at large. Your tax dollars are used to fund such services. If you find your city does not have animal control services or won't provide services for certain types of animals, you can call us next to schedule an admissions appointment.
Please also check our online bulletin board for lost pets before calling for an appointment. The pet's owner may have posted a notice allowing you to contact them directly.
If you find a stray pet, we can accept strays under the following conditions:
An appointment is needed to bring in a stray pet.
While we try to be as accommodating a possible with appointment scheduling, we ask that you be flexible as well. The demand for admissions appointments can differ by time of year and AHS location. If the location you request has no appointments available, we may ask you to travel to an alternate location. Or we may ask you to continue caring for the animal temporarily until an appointment is available. If the options presented still do not work for you, we can refer you to other rescues and shelters or provide rehoming information to help you rehome the pet yourself.
When you arrive for your appointment, please check in at the Incoming Animals desk.
Most appointments will take 30-45 minutes per animal depending on the type of animal. If you are bringing in stray, you are not required to stay past the first step.
In addition to the pet, please bring a driver's license or other government issued ID, proof of pet ownership, copies of veterinary records, a completed Personality Profile and the surrender/service fee.
If you are unable to make your appointment, please contact Animal Admissions at least 24 hours in advance and we can reschedule. Please understand another appointment may not be available right away.
Customers more than 10 minutes late will be asked to reschedule.
We collect each person's name, address, phone and email during the appointment setting process to have contact information for appointment confirmations and follow ups and to maintain accurate records for the transfer of ownership.
You will also be required to show identification during for appointment. The surrender contract acts as a transfer of ownership and your identification (driver's license, etc.) will serve to verify your representation as the owner/finder of the animal.
An owner's presence during the behavior evaluation can be a distraction to the animal. In order to get our best, most objective results, we will ask you to wait in the lobby. The techs will call you back into the evaluation room as soon as they're finished.
Please understand that your pet's behavior may be different in strange environment being handled by unfamiliar people. Animals may act differently when surrounded by persons unknown to them, and that is what they will experience in the adoption center.
Animal Humane Society's Community Cats program works to improve the lives of free-roaming and feral cats in our community and reduce the unnecessary euthanasia of healthy cats that are not suitable for adoption.
Community cats are un-owned cats that live outdoors in the community. They may be feral or friendly, may have been born into the wild, or may be lost or abandoned pets.
Stray or free-roaming cats that are friendly and would do well in a home are made available for adoption or placed in our adoption preparation programs. Feral cats that would not be appropriate or happy as pets are sterilized, ear-tipped, vaccinated, and released in the same outdoor location where they were found.
Euthanizing healthy cats is no longer an acceptable option. Removing these cats from the community does not eliminate the nuisances they create and actually encourages cat populations to steadily grow. When you return cats that have been sterilized, they continue to use resources but are unable to reproduce, decreasing the free-roaming cat population over time. Sterilization also reduces problematic behaviors like fighting and spraying.
Under this program, only feral cats that are thriving are returned to their environment. If the cat is healthy, we know it has found a source of food and shelter in the community, just as other wild animals have.
While it's hard to imagine living outdoors during our winters, we know cats have adapted and manage to survive year round. Similar programs have been successfully implemented in all types of climates across the U.S. and Canada.
Although community cats often hunt to survive, this program will reduce the impact on birds and wildlife by gradually decreasing the cat population over time.
A tipped ear indicates that the cat has already been sterilized and vaccinated, so you can simply leave that cat alone. Ear-tipped cats that are surrendered will be returned to the community.
Animal Humane Society currently operates a targeted trap-neuter-return program in the 55303 and 55304 zip codes. Our staff and volunteers work with community members and feral cat colony caretakers to humanely trap cats, transport them for surgery, ear-tipping, and vaccination, and return them to the colony following treatment.
Call Animal Humane Society's community cats coordinator at 763-432-4892.
Animal Humane Society's Community Cats program is supported in part by a grant from PetSmart Charities.
Animal Humane Society has an open admission philosophy, which means we accept every animal regardless of health, age, breed or temperament that is surrendered to us. Let's work together to ensure the best possible solution for you and your pet.
Our five metro-area shelters provide us with the best opportunity to place stray animals that are not reunited with their owners into new homes.
We at Animal Humane Society may be able to help you keep your pet at home or there may be alternative re-homing options available to you. Please consider the following alternatives before surrendering your pet.
Why are you considering surrendering your pet?
Pet profile forms and veterinary records are critical to our evaluation process. The more we know about your pet, the better we're able to place him or her into a new home.
Please bring the appropriate completed form to your appointment.
* A profile form is not required for ferrets, chinchillas, other small animals and birds.
** Animal Humane Society is a private, non-profit organization that does not receive government funding. We are also not affiliated with any national humane organizations.
The cost to care for and re-home pets can be in the hundreds of dollars for each animal that comes into our care. AHS asks for a surrender fee to help subsidize this cost. The fee is non-refundable and is not dependant on the outcome you choose for your pet after its evaluation.
Animals are accepted only by appointment. Call (763) 412-4969 to schedule an appointment to surrender your pet.
Our goal is to find a happy home for every healthy and treatable animal. We can achieve this by knowing more about the animals that come into our care.
If you're surrendering a litter of kittens, please learn more about our Kitten Support Project before calling. Click here for information on bringing in wildlife.
If your animal has bitten or broken skin in the last 10 days, please contact your local animal control agency.
Animal Humane Society is an open-admission organization that accepts all animals. As a result, not all animals are able to be placed for adoption and humane euthanasia may be considered in some cases.
Animals are accepted only by appointment. Call (763) 412-4969 to schedule an appointment to surrender your pet.
Let's work together to ensure the best possible solution for you and your pet.
We may be able to help you keep your pet at home or there may be alternative re-homing options available to you.
Begin the process of surrendering your pet to AHS if alternative resources don't address the circumstances you are experiencing with your pet.
Complete and print out the required corresponding surrender form and bring it and a copy of your pet's veterinary records with you to your appointment.
Animal admissions appointments are available at all five Animal Humane Society locations in the Twin Cities metro area.
If you are considering surrendering kittens or a mother with kittens less than 8 weeks of age, please read the information below before bringing them to Animal Humane Society.
Animal Humane Society receives thousands of kittens each year, over half of which are from owners surrendering unwanted litters of kittens. Starting in May, we start seeing over 1,000 kittens per month brought to our five sites. This is what we've come to call "Kitten Season" and it historically does not stop until late October.
One of the challenges we face with the high volume of kitten surrenders is kittens not old enough to adopt. Kittens less than 8 weeks typically are too young or do not weigh enough to have spay/neuter surgery and move to the adoption center. Because of this, they have to go to foster care for a week or two. Volunteer foster homes are in short supply during "kitten season" and the time in foster puts these animals in our care for a longer time. Finding volunteer foster care for moms with kittens is even more challenging.
The sad reality is we have more kittens coming into our shelters then we have resources to care for all of them. When foster homes aren't available and kittens stay in the shelter, we become over crowded. Over crowding leads to more stress and more disease for what were once healthy young kittens. Illness and lack of space lead to difficult decisions about which kittens can be saved.
To minimize time in shelter and number of young kittens needing foster care, we ask that people considering surrendering a litter of kittens, please consider keeping the kittens in your home until they are at least 8 weeks of age.
If you absolutely cannot keep the kittens, we can accept them. For information on surrendering an animal, please contact our Animal Admission Center.
Did you find a stray kitten or litter of kittens? If you have found a litter of kittens or a mother with kittens you can still help us by keeping them in your home. Information about caring for kittens and moms with kittens is below and you can use our online lost and found service to report found animals.
How do I care for young kittens or moms with litters? For information on caring for young kittens and mothers with litters click here.
Our goal to keep young kittens in the home until 8 weeks of age will allow us to provide the best possible opportunity for these animals. We hope you will partner with us to make that happen.
*Medical Note: Animal Humane Society veterinarians and staff cannot legally treat or recommend treatment on animals that are owned and have not been surrendered to our organization. If you are having a medical problem with kittens, please contact your veterinarian immediately. If you are unable to provide treatment, you may surrender the kittens to AHS at any time. Please understand we have limited resources and cannot guarantee treatment or adoption for any animal surrendered to us. In addition, please note that once surrendered, normal surrender policies apply.
Animal Humane Society partners with Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Minnesota to assist injured and orphaned wildlife in our community.
Having a wildlife service available provides animal control and community service officers with the resources necessary to respond to calls from residents about injured and orphaned wildlife. These services are also available to private citizens.
For general questions about wildlife or for immediate information on what to do if you have found injured or orphaned wild animals, please refer to the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Minnesota website or contact WRC at (651) 486-9453.
Animal Humane Society does not trap and remove nuisance animals.
Mission: To engage the hearts, hands, and minds
of the community to help animals.
Vision: To compassionately and responsibly
create a more humane world for animals.
Core Values: Be good to animals. Partner with people.
Lead responsibly with compassion.

This SEC decision is one that deserves several readings. The SEC have drilled down far enough to discover that the banks made settlements on buy-backs, kept the money and didn't give to the investors because (1) they wanted to keep it for themselves and (2) the huge number of early defaults would have led the investors to question whether industry standards were being followed in the underwriting of these loans. Had that happened, the well would have dried and nobody would be buying mortgage bonds because they would be revealed as PONZI certificates.
Reading this decision from the SEC will bring it all together as to who , what, where, why and when. Anyone who takes another step in litigation without reading this is stepping into the darkness.
There is nothing left to hide because the doors are all open. It will still take years to unravel the financial mess, but now we have a chance to change policy and direct relief to where it belonged all along --- to the investors who supplied the money and the homeowners who were duped into crazy, exotic mortgages that hid the real objective: foreclosure.
