Traveling to new places is a favorite activity for most people. Aside from having fun in seeing new things and new places, traveling is also a fun way to learn more about other people's culture and history. You can learn a lot from traveling to different places which can help you understand diversity in the world and improve your outlook in life.
However, traveling can also become stressful if you need to carry a lot of things like your gadgets. Travel is never complete if you do not have a camera to capture and immortalize the memorable moments of your travel and share it to your followers from Instagram. Of course, you also need your mobile devices for communication plus other common gadgets that people usually use today like your tablet and your mp4 player. Some even bring their laptops during travel.
If you need to bring all these electronic gadgets with you while traveling, then you must learn some tips on how to protect your gadgets from the bad guys or in case accidents happen. If you don't want to lose your gadgets to thieves or do not want bad people from snooping, then make sure to remember these traveling tips.
- Lock everything
Lock your gadgets by activating the password prompt when you open your gadget. You can use this technique for your phone, tablet, and laptop. Make sure that your gadget will require password when your gadgets wake from hibernation or sleep.
- Use tracking apps
Most smartphones and tablets already have apps like this like in Google and Apple devices. Make sure to install a device tracking program and remote locking features on your gadgets so you can track and lock your devices in case you lose them or someone stole them.
- Encrypt your data
This is a must especially if your electronic gadgets are loaded with personal data that are very important like your credit card information, banking information, and many confidential files that you keep in your gadgets. By encrypting your data, other people cannot easily snoop through your personal files and data in case they get a hold of your gadgets. Some gadgets like laptops and tablets already have this feature but you can also install third-party-encryption solutions in case your gadget has no encryption feature yet.
- Backup your data
There are now a lot of cloud storage apps that allow you to backup important files in a secured site plus also make these files accessible to various devices you use. Aside from an online backup solution, you can also backup your data using an external drive so you can still recover your important data in case you lose your gadgets or if your devices are broken while you are traveling.

Wednesday, September 12, 2012
The dewatering process of Georgetowns drainage project resumed this week albeit very slowly after nearly a 10-month delay.
The process of removing well water from under the ground so a retention pond can be built next to City Hall was stopped in November 2011 after sinkholes formed in the areas around where the project is taking place.
The water was being removed at 60,000 gallons an hour before the order to cease was given.
So far this week, the work has been much different.
South Carolina Department of Transportation officials say the water has been removed intermittently since Wednesday.
Sixteen water monitoring wells have been installed in different areas that will warn workers if there is a problem or if water levels drop too low. The work will stop immediately if the levels do drop lower than expected, the DOT says.
To prepare for the dewatering to resume, the well was sealed which, officials say, should prevent a repeat from what happened last year when sinkholes caused the collapse of one building and damaged others.

In the Friday, June 1 issue of the St. Louis Post Dispatch newspaper, Mark Abels, Director of Corporate Communications for TWA Airlines LLC., said that by the end of the summer, a TWA/AA combined livery will be appearing on TWA's airplanes as an interim step towards converting TWA's fleet to the AA livery. How cool! Get out those cameras. I'm guessing the "TWA" logo on the tail and the "Trans World" lettering on the fuselage will be replaced with the "AA" logo and the "American" script respectively, keeping the red, white, gold and blue paint and possibly the globe. Can't wait to see it.
In other transition notes, Mr. Abels said the TW 717, 757 and MD80 fleets will be converted to AA's "More Room Throughout Coach" configuration by the end of the summer. The 767's will be done by October.
Last Friday also marked the first day that "American Way" appeared in TW seat pockets. I'm proud to say I flew on TW that day (early in the day) and was able to grab a couple of brand new copies for my rapidly-expanding TWA memorabilia collection.
It's happening folks. Sad but exciting at the same time.

I am a veteran of the Army and I served proudly in Viet Nam. You have stooped to a real low by calling our 1942 team a bunch of draft dodgers and cowards. You should be ashamed of yourself for that. I know for a fact that there weren't any cowards on that team. This is a insult to all Georgia fans and all military veterans.
Mr. Bone: Before you go accusing me of calling people draft dodgers and cowards, let's take a moment to review a few facts. I know ... never let the facts get in the way of a good story but here the facts are essential. You'd know that if you really would READ what I wrote. Did I ever call them cowards or draft dodgers? I don't know of a single coward or draft dodger that played on that team. I do know that a lot of fine officers who served in both the Pacific and the European theaters were on that team. Now here's the part that you should have picked up. Coach Wally Butts had his football players sign up almost to a man for ROTC. Now, they didn't do the President Bubba thing and simply threaten to sign up, they actually signed up and did all the requirements to prepare for the military. While they were in college at the University of Georgia and while they were playing football in that 1942 season, they were actually training to be officers who would go on to lead our troops during World War II. I give a lot of credit to Wally Butts, the Georgia coach for getting those guys in ROTC because they later on became fine officers. It also served a dual purpose for a football coach because his team was preserved and he won the 1942 national championship.
A Mr. JK from Alpharetta wrote:
I think you made up all this stuff about Coach Butts and our 1942 team. I think you hate Georgia so much that you will stoop to any level to try to make us look bad. I hope we rip Florida's heads off and puke down their throats Saturday.
Mr. JK: During the years I've gone to Jacksonville (and Gainesville and Athens, too ... can't forget those two years when the game was on campus ... it was lovely between the hedges... were you there? I was) I've seen a lot of Georgia fans puking after games but I can't say I've seen anyone puke down a Gator's throat. Most of the time it's been in trash cans or in the bushes along the sidewalks leading to the stadium or in the case of this girl two years ago, in the St. John's River. She had two of her friends wrap their arms around her waist and she spent something like five minutes hurling into our pristine waters. As for the part about making it up about the 1942 team, I've done the research, read the books and I also had one of the truly great sources of all time tell me about what happened that year. My source? The late, great Gene Ellenson, a former great football player at the University of Georgia who became Florida's defensive coordinator under Ray Graves and later on, executive director of Gator Boosters. Now if you'll go to page 151 of your media guide, look under E and scan on down until you see Ellenson, Eugene, 1940-41-42. That means he played three years at Georgia. He was a starter on that 1942 team and he was in ROTC just like the rest of his teammates. Gene Ellenson went on to win two Silver Stars at the Battle of the Bulge with both of his medals pinned on his chest by none other than General George C. Patton. Gene Ellenson was one of the greatest GATORS ever. When he died his veins bled orange and blue, but back in 1942, he was a Poodle and a distinguished member of a national championship team.
A Mrs./Ms./Miss SANDI from Norcross wrote:
You have some nerve to insult Vince Dooley like you did. Vince Dooley is a great man and the greatest football coach ever at Georgia. The way you describe him, you would think he's an evil man. There is no proof anywhere that Vince Dooley ever did anything that you accuse him of doing. He was a man of great integrity that all Georgia fans owe a real debt of gratitude.
SANDI: You don't mind if I do this on a first-name basis since you didn't indicate whether you're a Mrs., Ms or a Miss do you? There is no doubt that Georgia fans think Vince Dooley could have succeeded Pope John Paul. After all, Vince is a card-carrying Catholic so there would have been no need to convert. I am also pretty sure Barbara Dooley thinks Vince is a hunk. I don't know that I'd call him evil, but I can say that there are a lot of facts which tend to show Vince in less than perfect light. To those who think Vince was the greatest of the greats, all I only have two names to throw at you: Jan Kemp and Jim Harrick. Oh, I could do more, but you'd accuse me of slandering Vince and defaming him. I don't have to do that. Actually, all I have to say is Jan Kemp. You remember her don't you? She got fired from her position as an English professor at Georgia because she wouldn't toe Vince's line and give passing grades to all the athletes, but particularly the football players. She sued, won a million dollar-plus judgment and your president, Fred Davison, resigned in humiliation. Funny, but Vince didn't lose his job. Georgia fans wouldn't stand for their athletic director to lose his job, especially since the football team which he was coaching was doing so well. So when I hear anyone use the words Vince Dooley and integrity in the same sentence, pardon me if I can't restrain my laughter.
A Mr. BigDogBites from Atlanta wrote:
You trash our great team in 1942 and you call them draft dodgers. You're just jealous because they were so good and beat Florida 75-0. You call the greatest coach we ever had a scumbag. You tarnish the name of that great 1980 team with your lies about Georgia and the NCAA. Shouldn't you look in the mirror first or do you remember that Florida was such a s*%#thole of corruption and probably still is? Or have you forgotten Charley Pell?
Mr. Bites: Please read my response to The Boner. I never called them draft dodgers. They were in ROTC. They beat Florida 75-0. You have that right. Now let me tell you why I'm so perturbed. I'm not the least bit bothered by the fact those football players were in ROTC and Florida's football team had volunteered almost en masse for the military right after Pearl Harbor. Wally Butts should be commended for getting those guys in officer training and it certainly helped his football team, didn't it? What irks me is that in the fourth quarter, against a team that had players who couldn't have even made the Florida practice squad the year, Butts had the starters in the game with a 60-plus point lead in the fourth quarter. I know because Gene Ellenson, one of the starters on that team, told me. Okay, I'll agree that Vince was the greatest coach you ever had, but show me where I called him a scumbag? Maybe I implied that he was, and that might be a good word to actually describe him but it's not one I actually used. You can go to the NCAA website and you'll find that on January 4, 1985, Georgia lost scholarships and had three coaches placed on notice and recruiting restriction by the NCAA for improper aid and transportation, extra benefits and improper recruiting contacts. All these violations were during the Herschel Walker era. There was a widespread rumor for years that Vince Dooley personally intervened with the NCAA committee and stopped the investigation in its tracks. In those days, as the television committee chairman, only Walter Byers was more powerful at the NCAA than Vince. Florida paid the price for its transgressions many times over. As for Charley Pell, all I can say is look at his legacy with former players. Look how many of them got their degrees compared to how FEW got theirs when Vince was at Georgia. Please check those graduation numbers for the era when Vince was the football coach and the words "how low can you go" probably describe them best. Also, thanks to Charley Pell organizing Florida's boosters, the Gators are unquestionably the richest, best funded athletic program in the Southeastern Conference.
A Mr. RGS from Savannah wrote:
You haven't changed from the days when you wrote for the Savannah News-Press. You're still the biggest Gator homer going. You hated Vince Dooley back then and you still hate him now.
Mr. RGS: You haven't seen me in years so I appreciate the compliment. I don't have nearly as much hair as I used to have back in those days and it's been a long time since I could fit into a pair of slacks with a 32-inch waistline. So see? I have changed. Now, as for Dooley, hate probably takes it a bit to an extreme. Let's just say I hold him beneath contempt and leave it at that. You're right about two things, though. I still love the Gators and can't for the life of me figure out why anyone with a reasonable mind would be anything else. When it comes to Dooley, you're 100 percent correct to say I didn't like him then but it would be safer to say that I like him even less now.
A Mr. DostaDawg87 from Valdosta wrote:
You can't handle it that Georgia's better in football and better in all sports than your Gators, can you? All you can do is insult our great athletic program and all our great coaches. Remember Charley Pell? We do. The Gaytors are still the wannabes in the SEC. They still lick our butts.
Mr. Poodleboy: I couldn't resist. You call us Gaytors, I'm calling you Poodleboy. Let's start with the fact that only UCLA and Florida have been in the top ten of the Sears Cup every year for the last 20. Can Georgia say that? Nope. So much for the better athletic program. Football? Let's see, you've won how many conference and national championships since Herschel Walker graduated? One and none's the answer there. Florida has a national championship and seven SEC championships in that same time. What's that record against Florida the last 15 years? Two wins, 13 losses. So much for football. Charley Pell? Well, we did our time in the NCAA jail. Georgia's been on NCAA probation for football (1997) and basketball (2004) since then and we can't forget your gymnastics coach, Suzanne Yoculan, who was sanctioned last year for paying for her gymnasts to go to New York City on a shopping spree (you could look it up). In typical Poodle fashion, Suzanne said she didn't even know it was a violation. Well, Poodleboy, since 1990, every school in the SEC has gone on probation at least once in at least once sport ... well, everyone but Florida, which runs the cleanest program in the SEC and as clean a program as there is in the SEC.

"It is the little writer rather than the great writer who seems never to quote, and the reason is that he is never really doing anything else." ~Havelock Ellis
Few things will improve your post like well positioned quotes. Many authors are not only more brilliant than we are, but they're also superior writers. By taking their brilliance and inserting it in your posts, you're boosting your arguments credibility and making your articles more interesting to read.
Non-fiction book authors virtually always pull quotes from other authors to give their arguments more power and to increase the overall enjoyment of their work. By doing the same for your blog posts you're guaranteed to increase the quality of your writing.
For an entire week I read every post from five A-list bloggers to see how many of their posts included quotes. Out of 31 posts, only three did.
There are two implications to take away from this: One, if you're a blogger and use more quotes you'll definitely stand out. And two: the reason quotes are seldom used is obvious, it makes writing more time consuming. If you want to include this highly beneficial component to your writing, however, you'll put in the time for it.
You should follow at least two blogs within your niche that will give you excellent quotes to include in future posts.
Since I often do guest posts on writing and blogging, I ensure that I never miss a post from Write to Done or Copyblogger; they're both blogs that offer a constant stream of good material for me to include in future guest posts.
I strongly recommend, however, that you don't stop with just blogs. Read books and magazines too. It's always impressive to find material outside the blogosphere inside your post.
Every time you're reading a book or magazine, ensure your highlighter is handy. By highlighting quotes that stand out while reading, you're providing yourself amazing material to include in future posts to support your arguments and increase the overall value of your writing.
There's another bonus of reading more books and magazines beyond acquiring great quotes, and it's even more significant than the benefits these quotes offer.
Every book and magazine you read is like a garden of ideas. And as much as I enjoy reading blogs, let's face it, the best writers aren't posting blog posts; they're getting paid to write books and magazine articles. You'll usually find the most profound and well articulated ideas not in blogs, but in books.
Here's what Brian Clark of Copyblogger has to say on the value of not just relying on blogs for inspiration:
So many people are reading RSS feeds and joining the conversation and blogging about what other people are blogging about and guess what, it's really hard to stand out when you do that type of thing. So here's an idea, read more books, read more magazines, take in other media and then add your own perspective to the new ideas that you're exposed to. And all of a sudden you have a fresh outlook that no one else is blogging about.
Using more quotes and reading more books and magazines is certain to enhance the quality of your blog.
Bamboo Forest created an online timer that helps make bloggers ridiculously productive. He also writes for Pun Intended, a blog that's hilarious and inspiring.
Secret tip: get yourself on the waiting list for the A-List Blogger Club, the amazing ongoing training environment for bloggers that Leo Babauta and Mary Jaksch have created.
The A-List Blogger Club has changed my life. A month ago I didn't know a tweet from a widget. Now I'm running my own blog and the club is right there with me. Everyday I connect with someone new, and not just connect, but get to know them, laugh with them, befriend, share, support and exchange ideas. Mary and Leo have created a community that is a reflection of who they are — generous, genuine and successful!
~ Katie Tallo of Momentum Gathering

So wait … the fact that "five A-list bloggers" barely used quotes tells you that using quotes is a GOOD idea?
Wow. No. Quotes are a run-to for hacks. Unless a quote really is directly applicable and adds something absolutely vital to what you're trying to say, they're FILLER.
This piece is seriously bad advice.
-The Gneech
It tells you that there's an opportunity to stand out and boost the quality of your writing by using more of them.
I actually anticipated someone would say this very thing that you have, but it doesn't hurt my argument.
With blogging there are no rules that lead to success. And one size never fits all.
My point isn't that you can't be incredibly successful without quoting. Obviously many A-listers do DAMN WELL with a dearth in quotes.
My point *is* in fact that using quotes enhances your writing. And, isn't that worthwhile?
I suggest you read a recent guest post that I did:
Notice all the quotes I use and how it DEFINITELY enhances the quality of that post.
The overall value of using quotes depends entirely on one's reason for blogging, as well as the blogging niche and target audience. In some niches, quotes are best used sparingly, as readers just want facts, news, or how-to information delivered as quickly as possible. We really need to know if our market group comes to our blog to settle in and read or to "scan and grab" information. A "good" writer knows their audience and crafts their work accordingly.
Also, there's a growing group of people who react with annoyance to quotes, thanks to the many Twitter users who basically "spam" their followers with an endless stream of quotes. This has greatly diluted the appeal and effectiveness of quotes to some of our readers.
The fact that so few A-List bloggers use quotes speaks volumes about their effectiveness in a business sense. It's always good to question the value of our actions to see if they are bringing true value not just to our readers, but to our business. For most of us, this means very few quotes will be used.
I was taken aback by the statement that "the best writers aren't posting blog posts." This may seem true for you, but it is not at all true in my experience. Some of the most beautiful, touching, helpful, funny, etc., work I've ever seen has been found on blogs.
I think you're confusing the kind of quotes I'm underscoring in this article with quotes you find on twitter.
The two aren't comparable.
I'm talking about taking segments of articles in blogs, books or magazines and using them to enhance your argument. Not feel good one-liner quotes that you find on twitter that I think you're referring to. There's a HUGE distinction between the two.
You're right about the need to know your audience. But isn't that always the case? Any advice you see in a post on blogging can't be universally applied. So when I advise to use more quotes, it's for blogs it will actually enhance. And I believe that applies to many different kinds of blogs, but obviously not every single one (and not every single post).
As far as many A-listers not quoting a lot, that means that if you do use more of them you'll stand out and differentiate yourself. If you want to compete with the A-listers, you better do something they're NOT! This is one way to do so.
The best writers are definitely published authors and not bloggers. While there are some exceptions to this, this is the overall reality.
While anyone can write up a post and press 'publish', very few have the necessary skills to write so well they're getting payed good money for it. The competition for getting published in books and magazines is overwhelming.
In contrast, anyone can start a blog. So, yes, the best writers are not bloggers.
Good point on the difference between typical Twitter quotes and what you're referring to in your piece. That said, I think the quotation marks themselves are the "trigger" for the annoyance or for tuning out the material inside the marks. Sort of like if the key to eternal life was printed inside a Google Adsense box, most of us would miss it.
I agree that if we look at the big picture, the quality of the body of work in traditional markets is vastly better than the quality of material on blogs. Then again, if we throw out all the romance novels, things might look differently 🙂
I swim in both pools as a writer, as do nearly all of the writers I know. So, in my experience, the "best writers" are writing in both mediums and it's good for readers to experience writing in many forms. Which was exactly what you said, only in a way that yanked my chain 🙂
Jerry Pournelle is quite a well published author, and he is in fact also a blogger. And I' agree if you throw out all the romance novels things would indeed be looking different.
Are we talking about two different types of quotes? The one-line quote at the beginning of a post and a block quote inside of a post.
It seems like the one-line beginning quote is used on most (all?) of the posts on zenhabits, as well as a few other blogs that I read regularly. The block quotes seem pretty rare, however.
As for them being good or bad, I think it depends on the audience and the writer. Sometimes a quote better expresses the thoughts that the author wants to get across. Sometimes it just adds clutter.
I'm not referring to one-liners. I'm actually underscoring material taken from other publications and being used to enhance one's article.
You make a good point: It can add clutter. So they have to be used skillfully. Sometimes they're best not used at all.
I think it all depends on context.
If you're writing an inspiring post, I think a strong quote can add a lot of value as long as it fits the theme.
For very technical posts, quotes from experts can help clarify what you're trying to talk about. If I were to blog about SEO, a quote from Matt Cutts would instantly solidify the subject.
I don't think you should use quotes for every post, I'd suggest very sparingly because quotes do become annoying sometimes.
I'd like to point out that while many A-listers don't quote often, some do. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Tim Ferris uses them frequently. Other very successful bloggers do as well.
So my point was never that you *have* to use more quotes to be a successful blogger. That obviously isn't true.
It's that quotes can often improve one's article in a variety of ways.
I don't use them in every post, but I do like using them when I can because I believe it gives what I write more credibility.
I use quotes, just not in every post.
Sure people may have become jaded over the years when it comes to quotes but I feel some of my posts need them.
Let's say I'm discussing doubt in one's work in a post and how to overcome this doubt. I may stop and add;
"Our doubts are traitors, they make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt."
-William Shakespeare
In my opinion, that quote (just an example) from that man has impact.
I've been collecting quotes that inspired me for over 20 years.
Quotes are my needle filled with inspiration like Red Bull injected.
The point of quotes in journalism is to give voice to the expertise of someone with experience in a given field or discipline. Calling and talking to someone with expertise in your area of interest and quoting that person gives far more value to your piece than lifting quotes from someone else'e reporting, which can change the context of the speaker's thoughts. Bloggers can lend credibility and value to their work by talking to experts and getting fresh information in context.
As for literary lift-outs, I'm not especially moved as a reader by seeing the same old hackneyed quotes from a hundred years ago in blog posts.
I write a monthly newsletter, and I am often inspired by quotes that I read from others. I keep a quote journal and highlighter close by when I'm reading. I don't use quotes in each article. However, since I'm a therapist, not a writer by profession, I do find quotes useful at times.
I used to use stand alone quotes, yet now I incorporte them into my paragraph. Giving a brief introduction to who/why I'm quoting this person.
I love finding different perspectives. I love vivid quotes and the way people use language to express themselves. I'm not depend on the quotes, yet they are a nice summary of the point I'm trying to make in my articles. I provide the examples, stories, how to-s.
"I love vivid quotes and the way people use language to express themselves."
Well said. It's nice to incorporate what other authors have said in the way they have said it. It captures something unique and only adds to what you're saying yourself.
Hi, great tips here. Apparently, I'm not using enough quotes on my blogs, not from lack of reading/magazines/books…I do read and mark interesting quotes but, somehow hardly use them during my actual posting. Now, I'm realizing the error of my ways…
While I don't think they're a necessity–I do think they are a great asset in writing. Be it blog posts, or otherwise.
And yes, I think they're generally underused in the blogosphere, which is why I think they will help one stand out.
Some use them often and quite well. But many bloggers almost never quote. It makes writing a little more time-consuming, but in return your work is a little more scholarly and interesting.
Superb article! Especially the fact that you promote reading books, books, books! I have become an avid reader of books, mostly classics and older literature, and not only do I write a deeply personal blog on each book I read, I also feel (allow me to flatter myself just a little) that my writing is Improving because I am reading the works of the masters in the literary world…..While I love reading all the other blogs I track, there is nothing like reading Tolstoy's Anna K, Flaubert's Madame Bovary, or Jane Austen and Emily Bronte as a blogger and then articulating your thoughts as you wrap your brain around what you learned from such timeless writing. Yes, read often and read selectively great books. Thank you for this post!!!
Nothing will improve writing as much as reading. That's why I need to do more of it. 🙂
Very good point and I'm so glad you mentioned it! I used to include quotes in every post and book review/summary I wrote for ReadingForYourSuccess but for some reason I have not done much of it in the past few months. I am definitely going to get back into it. It's amazing how powerful a quote can be. I actually found a great iPhone App called LittleBuddha that has about 40,000 quotes I think. On all topics. Very useful for quite ideas for posts and for tweets.
One of my favorites is "Get out on a limb. It may be scary but that's where all the fruit is." I think Robin Sharma said that one.
Thanks for the great article! Time to get back to quoting.

Loyal dog honored by Washington governor
Tillie, the setter mix who stood guard for a week after the basset hound she was roaming with fell into a cistern, was honored by Washington state Gov. Jay Inslee last week.
Tillie, her basset hound friend, Phoebe, and their owner B.J. Duft were present as Gov. Inslee read a proclamation naming Tillie "Washingtonian of the Day" Thursday.
Inslee urged "everyone in Washington to celebrate the bravery and loyalty of this canine companion."
Tillie was the first non-human to receive the honor.
"I saw this story and I just immediately said this is something Washington needs to celebrate," Inslee said. "I grew up with Rin Tin Tin and Lassie and I never thought I'd meet a real dog that had that type of Hollywood character, but Tillie's right here."
Both dogs have been enjoying some newfound fame in Vashon, about 20 miles southwest of Seattle, since they wandered off from their home in early September.
A week later they were found — 4-year-old Phoebe stuck in the bottom of shallow cistern, 11-year-old Tillie watching over her.
They were discovered by a volunteer from Vashon Island Pet Protectors, who snapped the photo to the left.
Duft, who said the dogs escaped from his property through a hole in the fence, was ecstatic when he learned they'd been found.
"It really made me think a lot about their friendship and Tillie's commitment to her companion, that's for sure," Duft told the Associated Press.
The governor has bestowed about 70 "Washingtonian of the Day" certificates since taking office.
Duft said both dogs are now sporting GPS collars.

Susie named 2014's "American Hero Dog"
Susie, the abused North Carolina dog who inspired a law, a movie, and a nonprofit organization, has been named the American Humane Association's 2014 American Hero Dog.
Susie, found with burns over most of her body in 2009, received a standing ovation at the AHA's black-tie awards gala Saturday night in Beverly Hills, where she was one of eight finalists competing for the prize.
"I'm just blown away," Donna Lawrence told TODAY.com after learning her dog had won. "There were so many amazing dogs with great stories. When they called Susie, I just wanted to cry."
In 2009, Susie was found with severe second and third-degree burns over most of her body in Greenfield Park in south Greensboro. Her ears were burned off and she had a broken jaw and teeth. She was taken to the Guilford County Animal Shelter and eventually nursed back to health.
She was adopted by Donna and Roy Lawrence — just 10 months after Donna was attacked while trying to help a neglected pit bull that had spent much of its life tied to a tree in her neighbor's yard in High Point, North Carolina.
When the man who was convicted of setting Susie on fire was sentenced to probation, outraged dog lovers launched a campaign for tougher penalties for animal cruelty and abuse.
"Susie's Law," which made animal cruelty a felony in North Carolina, went into effect in 2010, signed by then-governor Bev Perdue.
Donna Lawrence went on to establish Susie's Hope, a nonprofit organization that fosters awareness of animal abuse. In 2013, the story was made into a movie, also called "Susie's Hope."
Susie is now a certified therapy dog and visits schools, hospitals and churches to bring messages of kindness, respect and responsibility to children and adults.
Other finalists in the Hero Dog Awards, included:
Bretagne, one of the last known surviving search dogs who worked at Ground Zero in New York after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks
Kai, an arson dog who has worked more than 200 fire investigations in San Antonio
JJ, a little dog with a powerful nose that can detect when his human, ther a girl named KK Krawczyk, is about to have a life-threatening reaction due to a rare illness
Kota, a law-enforcement K9 who sustained multiple fractures while responding to a burglary in progress but who kept trying to help his police officer partner apprehend a suspect
Xena the Warrior Puppy, a dog rescued from extreme abuse who went on to help a little boy with autism in profound ways
Chaney, a military dog who served multiple tours sniffing out explosives in Iraq and Afghanistan
Xxon, a guide dog who helped an Air Force sergeant continue to serve active duty and regain independence after being blinded by explosives in Afghanistan.
The Hallmark Channel will air the awards show on Oct. 30 at 8 p.m. (Eastern Time).

A Penny saved is an honor earned
Even more than we love his name … Americus Rambeau … we love what the Baltimore police officer did on Dec. 29, 2010 — namely, jump into the icy waters of Baltimore's Inner Harbor to rescue a dog named Penny.
"She was happy to have somebody to hang onto," he was quoted as saying after saving the dog's life.
Aren't we all.
On Jan. 26, at noon, the Baltimore Humane Society (BHS) will honor Rambeau and three other members of the Baltimore Police Department's Marine Unit for their rescue of Penny, a black lab mix who ran out of her Federal Hill home, across Key Highway and into the harbor.
The ceremony will take place at the shelter building on the grounds of BHS. The event is open to the public.
Rambeau, along with Sergeant Michael Kain, Officer William Edgar and Officer John Wagner, arrived by boat to save Penny. She avoided them at first, but once Rambeau was in the water, she allowed him to get close enough to help her.
Once ashore, Penny was treated for "cold-water exposure and hypothermia," said a spokesman for the BPD Marine Unit.
Penny's owner, Rachel Naumann, was at work when her roommate opened the front door to sign for a package and Penny, who's about a year old, got out and headed straight for the harbor, possibly in pursuit of a seagull.
Rambeau, who has multiple cats, told the Baltimore Sun he didn't hesitate to jump in the water for Penny. He has done the same thing for other dogs, cats, deer and, in 1998, a 79-year-old man.
Naumann picked Penny up from the shelter the next morning, happily paying a $95 fee to pay to reclaim her pet.
"I'm just happy she's back," she said.

"Last Minutes wih Oden"
The short documentary above — and, be warned, it will make you cry — chronicles the last minutes of a dog named Oden.
One of more than 6,500 submissions from thousands of artists and filmmakers, "Last Minutes with Oden" won top honors in a video contest sponsored by Vimeo, the online video sharing website.
The video focuses on Jason Wood and his dog Oden, who got cancer and had a leg amputated last year. But the cancer spread, leading Wood to make the anguishing decision to put down the dog who taught him how to love.
The video by Eliot Rausch documents the last day of Oden's life. Vimeo's panel of judges named it the best documentary, and the best video, and Vimeo presented the owners with a grant of $25,000. The awards were presented last month in New York City.
Jeremy Boxer, Co-Director of the Vimeo Festival + Awards called the video "one of those rare, intimate shorts that leads with its heart and soul."

Bench donated in slain dog walker's memory
Friends, family and fellow dog walkers in Salem, Oregon, raised funds to have a new bench installed at a dog park in memory of Darrel Valentine.
Valentine, 74, who used to walk his dogs, Lady, Velvet and Nicky, in the park every morning, was attacked in another park while walking his dogs, and died in September of last year.
The bench was completed and unveiled Friday at Minto-Brown Island Park's dog park, according to the Statesman Journal in Oregon. A plaque on the bench reads: "In memory of Darrel Valentine. Beloved dog park friend."
"He was kind of an icon down here," dog walker Deede James said. "He was down here about two hours every morning."
Friends and family raised more than $1,000 for the bench. They gathered for its unveiling Friday afternoon, along with Carole Miller, Valentine's sister, who brought Valentine's two labs to the park as well. Two of the dogs, Lady and Velvet now live with her. A third, Nicky, was adopted after his death.
Valentine was walking his dogs early Sept. 12 near Santana Park in southeast Salem when he was attacked. A suspect was riding by on a bike and demanded cash from Valentine, who said he didn't have any. The man attacked and beat Valentine, who died days later. No arrest has been made in the case.
Valentine, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps, devoted most of his time to his dogs after retirement.
"I think it is wonderful that everyone came together to do this," said Mark Valentine, Darrel's son. "It's really nice."

Vick coming to Baltimore for Block award
News that Michael Vick is expected to attend the 32nd annual Ed Block Courage Awards dinner in Baltimore Tuesday has led to a change in the ceremony's format and an increase in security.
Vick, who was convicted in 2007 of running a dogfighting ring, is one of 32 winners to be honored with the award, which singles out one member of each NFL team for his courage, sportsmanship and inspiration to his community.
Vick's unanimous selection by his Philadelphia Eagles teammates triggered angry e-mails to the Ed Block Courage Award Foundation, a petition drive and a planned protest by dog lovers and animal welfare activists at the award's ceremony, to be held at Martin's West, 6817 Dogwood Road, from 4 to 10 p.m.
More than 100 people have already signed up to protest at the event — a number that could grow as a result of the news that the quarterback will be attending.
In addition to scrapping the long-standing tradition of having the athletes mingle with fans and sign autographs, organizers say they are boosting security, according to the Baltimore Sun.
"We've put in place enough [guards] to make sure that our players are safe and that everything runs smoothly."said Ed Block Courage Award Foundation spokesman Paul Mittermeier.
The Block Award is named for a former team trainer of the Baltimore Colts, who worked for years to help abused children.
Criticism for bestowing the award on Vick has come from groups ranging from animal rights activists to the American Kennel Club. "It is unconscionable that a man who tortured and abused helpless animals be honored by an organization dedicated to ending abuse," the AKC said.
Vick will be accompanied to the event by Michael Markarian, chief operating officer of the Humane Society of the United States, a group for which the quarterback has made public appearances in recent months, attempting to steer youth away from dogfighting.

Petition seeks to cancel Vick's courage award
An online petition drive has been launched, asking the Ed Block Courage Award Foundation to rescind the award that Michael Vick's Philadelphia Eagles teammates unanimously voted for him to receive.
The petition, being sent to Sam Lamantia, CEO of the foundation, reads:
Recently the Philadelphia Eagles have elected Michael Vick as their recipient for this year's Courage Award. Given Mr. Vick's crimes and felony conviction, we do not believe he is worthy of this honor. For several years, in addition to promoting dogfighting, Vick himself tortured, abused, and murdered innocent dogs for his own profit and apparent enjoyment. This is not courage. This is inhumanity, immorality, and sheer brutality and does not warrant giving Vick this or any other reward.
Many of us have protested Vick's reinstatement to the NFL. There has been strong media and PR influence in trying to diminish his past actions and erase the public's memory of his sadistic behavior. We encourage you to stand up for the rights of animals everywhere and the memory of the dogs who endured Vick's cruelty…
The Ed Block Courage Award Foundation, based in Baltimore, is dedicated to promoting awareness and assisting in the prevention of child abuse. Vick's promotion and financing of dogfighting activities and his conviction in 2007 of felony dogfighting charges run counter to that mission, petition backers say.
PETA, meanwhile, has also come out against Vick receiving the honor — one Vick says he deserves because of what he has "been through."
"In no way does Michael Vick represent courage and inspiration," the petition's organizer said. "Rather, he exemplifies cruelty and inhumanity, and is not deserving of reward or recognition. We the undersigned strongly encourage the Ed Block Foundation to demonstrate the true substance of bravery, morals, and ethics. Deny Michael Vick the honor of the Courage Award."

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) – A new awareness campaign was launched Tuesday to bring statewide attention and increased awareness to the No Texting While Driving law.
Indiana State Senator Travis Holdman (R-Markle) sponsored the law that went into effect July 1. The new campaign will use the dynamic message signs along major roads and highways across Indiana to remind drivers about the ban. Many Hoosiers are still not aware of the law.
"In order for this new law to help make our roads safer by deterring drivers from the dangerous practice of texting while driving, people have to be aware of it," Holdman said. "Thousands of drivers will see these signs in the next few days as they drive on major thoroughfares around the state, which will help reduce the number of people texting behind the wheel and make all Hoosiers safer on the road."
Wile the law bans drivers of any age from texting or emailing while driving, motorists can still use hands-free devices to send messages and make phone calls.
