Last year, the Department of Housing and Urban Development called for communities to make a more concerted effort to include unaccompanied homeless youth, up to age 24, in the homeless census. In January 2013's point-in-time count, volunteers counted about 47,000 unaccompanied homeless children and youth. Like we pointed out in yesterday's blog post, given how hard it is to find homeless youth, that's almost certainly an undercount.
We estimate that during a year around 550,000 unaccompanied, single youth and young adults up to age 24 experience a homelessness episode of longer than one week, approximately 380,000 of them under the age of 18. That's why each year our national conference here in DC includes many workshops exploring ways to end youth homelessness. This year is no different. Here's a look at what you can expect to find in this year's Youth Track.

The number of people who are at risk of homelessness has failed to decline during the recovery from the Great Recession. This is the case even though the rate of homelessness fell from 20 to 19 homeless persons per 10,000 people, and unemployment decreased in nearly every state. That's according to The State of Homelessness in America 2014, the fourth in a series of reports from the National Alliance to End Homelessness.
It's the middle of May, and we're about two and a half months away from our 2014 National Conference on Ending Homelessness here in DC. That means we're busy at the Alliance offices lining up speakers and developing content for our conference workshops. Early registration for the event ends tomorrow at 3 p.m. ET. So if you plan to attend, I recommend registering as soon as you can.
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan will be our Keynote speaker on the first day, July 29, of the three-day conference. In case you're unfamiliar with HUD Secretary Donovan, check out this great profile in USA Today: Homelessness vs. HUD chief
We haven't announced the workshop tracks, but you can take a look at the workshop titles and descriptions on the agenda page of the conference website to get an idea what you're in for if you attend. I'm currently at work on one: Homelessness in the Media: The Journalist's Perspective; and I'm also busy arranging a free screening of the documentary "Lost Angels."
Back in February, the Alliance's 2014 National Conference on Ending Family and Youth Homelessness drew more than 800 people from across the country, including federal and local officials, homeless advocates, and other people working on the front lines of the fight to end homelessness, to New Orleans to address a wide range of issues, including health care reform, funding strategies, housing for homeless veteran families, engaging homeless youth through social media, and the commercial sexual exploitation of homeless youth. These are the keynote remarks delivered by the Alliance's President and CEO Nan Roman on the first day of that conference, February 18, 2014.
The madness is here. BJ's Charity Championship begins TODAY Monday, March 31st and we need your vote to win and receive a $15,000 donation towards our work to end homelessness.
BJ's Wholesale Club has selected 16 charities to compete in their own March Madness style bracket competition this week. All you have to do is visit BJ's Wholesale Club's Charity Championship app on Facebook and vote for the Alliance.
It's day two at the 2014 National Conference on Ending Family and Youth Homelessness, and we still have plenty of great workshops ahead of us. I'm particularly looking forward to checking out a workshop I helped organize: 4.8 Reaching and Engaging Homeless Youth through Social Media at 9 a.m., just five minutes from now.
Speaking of social media: As usual you can share with us on the Alliance Facebook page, and follow us on Twitter, and tweet about your conference experience using the conference hashtag #NAEH14.
New Orleans has come a long way in the eight years Hurricane Katrina devastated large swaths of the city and displaced more than 400,000 of its residents. Before Katrina, a little more than 2,000 people experienced homelessness on a given night. By 2007, that number swelled to more than 11,000. Today the number is 2,337.
Now, we're holding our 2014 National Conference on Ending Family and Youth Homelessness at the Sheraton New Orleans Hotel in New Orleans. The conference is drawing more than 800 people from across the country, including federal and local officials, homeless advocates, and other people working on the front lines of the fight to end homelessness. And we hope you're one of them. We're looking forward to seeing you in New Orleans today.
Back in August, the 2013 National Conference on Ending Homelessness drew around 1,600 people from across the country, including federal and local officials, filmmakers, advocates, and people working on the front lines of the fight to end homelessness, to Washington, DC, for three days of sharing innovative practices, new research, and the latest developments in homelessness. These are the keynote remarks delivered by the Alliance's President and CEO Nan Roman on the first day of that conference, August 22, 2013.
This holiday season, as you gather together with friends and family take a minute and consider giving a gift to support the families, individuals, youth, and veterans that have found themselves without a place to call home. Every gift counts and we know that with your help, we CAN end homelessness. Thank you for support throughout the year. We hope you have a joyous holiday season and a New Year full of hope and good fortune.
Here a few great ways to support the National Alliance to End Homelessness and our work to end homelessness in America:
In the upcoming year, communities will have less funding to address homelessness. The up to 5 percent cuts that communities will face in the fiscal year (FY) 2013 NOFA (Notice of Funding Availability) for the Continuum of Care (CoC) are a direct result of sequestration and other congressional funding decisions. Fortunately, we can be proactive about the tiering process and work to make sure that HUD's Homeless Assistance Grants funding never go short-funded again.
Tomorrow, the Alliance is hosting a webinar on planning for your NOFA application and working with your Members of Congress to ensure that subsequent NOFAs provide sufficient funding for renewals and even new projects. The webinar will also explore Richmond, Va's approach to the NOFA and what steps that community is taking to ensure the cuts have a minimal impact on their efforts to address homelessness.
Today marks the halfway point for the 100 Day Rapid Re-Housing Challenge in Virginia, the second phase of the Alliance's Virginia Learning Collaborative initiative.
As part of the challenge, 31 organizations in Virginia set ambitious goals to rapidly re-house even more families over 100 days. When the Challenge began I was excited about the possibilities. Today, those possibilities have become a reality and a total of 249 families have moved to homes over the past 50 days.
How are they doing it? First, they're motivating their staff and communities to embrace the Challenge, and second, they're being bold, working together, and thinking creatively to leverage resources. Halfway into the Challenge, the excitement and energy these organizations have created are still infectious.
We will act to secure resources, educate officials, and contribute to the ongoing efforts by private and nonprofit organizations to guarantee that there is never another homeless veteran.
That's the fourth part of the statement that thousands of people have already signed, as part of the Never Another Homeless Veteran campaign. (You can add your name to the campaign too.) The most common question we get, particularly from people who are new to the issue, is, "What can I do to make a real difference?" In this post I'll suggest some actions that people can take, including people who aren't involved in the issue on a day to day basis.
If you are a homeless service provider, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! On the whole, what we are doing nationally, is working! According to volume 1 of the 2013 Annual Homeless Assessment Report that the Department of Housing and Urban Development released today, overall homelessness decreased nearly 4 percent from 2012 to 2013. Nearly 25,000 more people were homeless on one night in January 2012 than in January 2013. In fact, homelessness decreased in all of the major subpopulations of note from 2012 to 2013: people in families, unsheltered people, veterans, individuals, and chronically homeless individuals.
Have you always wanted to travel abroad? Are you interested in learning about which best practices are being implemented to end homelessness in the UK? And do you work as a practitioner for an organization that provides assistance to people experiencing homelessness in the US? If your answer to the above questions is yes, or if you may know someone who meets these descriptions, read on!
The Alliance and Homeless Link, a homeless charity based in England, are jointly offering an exciting opportunity for practitioners in the homeless assistance sector to apply to travel to the UK through the Transatlantic Practice Exchange, which aims to establish transatlantic best practice connections. Funded by the Oak Foundation, The Transatlantic Practice Exchange will provide five participants from the U.S. with the opportunity to spend up to two weeks placed at a homeless assistance organization in the UK this upcoming spring. Candidates for the Exchange should be mid-level professional staff focused on practice in the homelessness field, and will be selected based on an application process.
Like many people who work in the homeless assistance field, Leon Winston had his own personal experience with homelessness and hardship. He was homeless himself, more than once, and a veteran. Now he is chief operating officer and housing director at Swords to Plowshares, a nonprofit that serves homeless veterans in the San Francisco area. Today, as part of our Never Another Homeless Veteran Campaign, we're sharing his remarkable story of how he got there, in his own words.
His story is unusual, but we believe it's emblematic of the commitment we need from the public and our elected officials if we are to end veteran homelessness. That's why the Alliance awarded him our Veterans Champion Award. And it was his kind of commitment we had in mind when we drafted the Never Another Homeless Veteran statement.
Last week, I was humbled to stand among some of the most inspiring leaders fighting to end veterans' homelessness.
I was proud to stand beside Alliance President and CEO Nan Roman to ask all Americans to sign a statement first to recognize that there are veterans, more than 60,000 in fact, who are homeless. These veterans sacrificed of themselves for the larger community, but they've returned and we don't have a place for them. In addition to raising awareness, we also ask you to sign to commit to telling others about the problem and to being a part of the solution.
Did you know that on any given night, 62,619 U.S. veterans are homeless? Veterans make up 7 percent of the general population, but they make up almost 10 percent of the entire homeless population, and they make up a disproportionate percentage of those who are chronically homeless (people who spend years on the streets because of physical disability, mental illness, or addiction).
That's why the Alliance has partnered with The Home Depot Foundation for The Never Another Homeless Veteran education campaign. It's a two-year effort by the Alliance and its partners to build and leverage public support to end veteran homelessness. If you're friends with a veteran, if you have a veteran in your family, if you're a veteran yourself, or if you care about ending veteran homelessness (and honestly, who doesn't fall into at least one of those categories?) you can join the thousands who have already signed on to the campaign by adding your name to the Never Another Homeless Veteran statement.
I have a particular interest in helping people and seeing that our society is fair. That being said, I joined the Alliance under the presumption that homelessness wasn't a major issue among our veterans. I was wrong, more wrong than I was at first willing to admit.
The Alliance opened my eyes in mere days at their 2013 National Conference on Ending Homelessness, where I had the opportunity to meet with advocates and officials and learn from 1,600 people from around the country who are working every day to end homelessness. I gained an understanding of veteran homelessness that prepared me to be part of their effort.
Two more days to go! With such a wide variety of workshop topics and knowledgeable speakers, it's hard to choose where to spend your time. Here are a couple things today that you should be sure not to miss.

Weekdays at 2pm on 92.3 KTAR
Mac & Gaydos
Hayden: Jodi Arias prefers death in murder trial
PHOENIX -- After she was found guilty of first-degree murder, Jodi Arias told a local news anchor that she would prefer death over life in prison.
"She sees death as going to another place, not an end to something, but as a beginning," Fox 10's Troy Hayden told News/Talk 92.3 KTAR's Mac & Gaydos on Wednesday.
Arias told Hayden that longevity runs in her family and she feels a lifetime behind bars could be very long for her.
During Hayden's interview, which took place in a holding cell about 20 minutes after Arias was sentenced, she only cried once when speaking about her mother.
"She felt very bad about what happened, that she dragged her into mother this," said Hayden, adding that Arias said she hopes the verdict brings comfort to the Alexander family.
Arias also said that she was very surprised she was convicted of first-degree murder, but Hayden wasn't as shocked.
"They made it very clear what premeditation was and all that you have to do is have a thought that you're going to kill somebody and, to me, with the slice on his neck she had to know she was going to end his life," he said.
When asked how she would conduct herself in the trial should she do it all over again, she would skip the lies.
"She would have called police as soon as she looked at the blood on her hands and realized that she killed Travis."
When it comes down to it, Hayden said he has no blood lust to see Arias executed and feels she is ill.
"I feel like [Arias] is sick," said Hayden, adding that the entire tragic incident has massively changed so many lives, especially those of the families.
Arias was placed on suicide protocol after leaving the courthouse, per Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
No other media interviews will take place until she is released from suicide protocol.

AFRICA/CONGO DR - Deceptions of war on the border between Congo and Rwanda
Kinshasa (Agenzia Fides) – To create a "plausible" pretext to the Rwandese army in order to officially enter the Congolese territory. This seems to be the purpose of the artillery shots fired on and around Gisenyi, a Rwandese city in the immediate vicinity of the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo (see Fides 31/08/2013) .
Gisenyi is situated on the border with North Kivu where the Congolese army backed by the Blue Helmets of MONUSCO (United Nations Mission in the DRC) is trying to put an end to the actions of the M23, the rebel movement backed by Rwanda.
According to a note sent to Fides by the Peace Network for Congo, "Rwanda immediately accused the Congolese Army of being behind the fall of such howitzers on its territory, threatening to be ready to intervene for the safety of its population and its territory. A version decidedly denied by the military authorities and Congolese government, according to which it was the M23 that launched howitzers on the Rwandese territory". "This second version - emphasizes the note – was accredited by a report of the under- Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Operations, Edmond Mulet, presented to the Security Council during a closed-door meeting, on August 29, on the current situation in the DRC". In this report, Edmond Mulet said that MONUSCO was able to ascertain "the artillery fire of the M23 launched towards Rwanda" and that he has never seen the Congolese government forces (FARDC) shoot on Rwanda. "The artillery fire came from areas where FARDC were not present", he said adding that, "according to the surveys carried out, the howitzers launched against Rwanda came from positions occupied by the M23".
"Such operation would serve not only to cover or to formalize the current military presence in Rwanda at the side of the M23, with the "official" arrival of new Rwandese troops, but also to provoke a war at an "international" level between the Congolese and Rwandese army, in order to put MONUSCO in an entirely new situation which would distort its mandate", the statement said.
"The ultimate goal of this strategy would be to block all types of operations on behalf of the intervention brigade of MONUSCO at the side of FARDC and to obtain, probably, not only its withdrawal, but also that of the entire UN contingent from the DRC. At this point, Rwanda would have all the doors open on North Kivu and not only" concludes the statement concludes. (L.M.) (Agenzia Fides 05/09/2013)

Harvard bio-boffins build gut-on-a-chip
Engineers at Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering have built an experimental synthetic intestine using currently available chip technology. The gut-on-a-chip is about the same size as a USB stick and consists of a central tube that is lined with a single layer of human intestinal epithelial cells to …
Finally, the iShit
But, but... what about the naturally present flora/fauna? You can't build a gut chip without the usual buggy suspects. I suppose it's good to see what would grow in the absence of normal gut bugs but like everything else, what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.
Re: Finally, the iShit
From the article: "The team have also managed to culture intestinal flora that occur in humans and add them to the chip, to increase its realism as a testing tool."
Re: Finally, the iShit
D'oh, how'd I miss that? Must read more carefully in future.
[hangs head in shame]
ROTM just got chemical weapons
The Terminator T9000 will be able to let farts that dissolve the stitching on Levi's.
Hmm... Remember the rat brain on a chip?
Combine that with this, the heart/lung on a chip, some hard/wetware to tie it together, stick it in the military bot of your choice, et voila!
The omnivorous Self-aware Highly Intelligent Terminator! (SHIT just got real, yo!)
Which institute?
"Wyse" or "Wyss"? Both are used in the article.

Thank you from the bottom of my and Franky's heart-Samantha Dean from Minneapolis, MN
Pet Name: Franky
To Dr. Prinz and all of the other doctors...(I think I've seen all of you)...thank you for always being so kind and so helpful. From my first visit with Dr. Monroe when I was in tears, to the visit today, Franky has been treated so well and you have put me at ease so many times. You and your staff are amazing and I cannot begin to tell you how much you make both our pets and ourselves feel a bit better in tough times and situations. I have nothing but the best to say about VCA Cedar Animal hospital and will continue to be a "frequent flyer" whenever Franky needs it. Thank you so very much, Samantha
Arthur-Jake and Amber West from Minneapolis, MN
Pet Name: Arthur
To the VCA Staff- Thank you for your help and understanding. Thanks especially to Virginia for your kind words. Thank you to Dr. Blake for giving us another few weeks with our wonderful Arthur. And...Dr Prinz,
You have no idea how much your kind ways meant to us. Thank you for allowing us the time to say good-bye to our little guy, and showing such kindness and love to a little creature you had just met. We only wish you'd have known him at a better time in his life. It comforts us to know someone like you is there to help in such terrible times.
Thank you, Jake and Amber West
Maxine-Andy and Jim Winick from Minneapolis, MN
Pet Name: Maxine
Maxine Wilhelmina Wells von Winick came into our lives in December, 1997. Maxine became a patient at Cedar Pet Clinic, first of Dr. Baillie, then Dr. Un (Burrill) and saw Dr. Erica Olson. Dr. Olson diagnosed her with probable Cushing's Disease. Maxine was 8 years old. We followed her alkaline phosphatase and kidney tests and she stayed "well" although showing signs of advancing age until March, 2009. In one week, decisions had to be made concerning her life. I knew I wanted palliative care for her and it served me well. On March 28, 2009, she was put to sleep in my arms by her favorite Dr. Burrill at VCA Cedar Animal Hospital. She was pure, unconditional love and will not be soon forgotten. What a beautiful little life!
Andy and Jim Winick
Spartacus-Stan from Minneapolis, MN
Pet Name: Spartacus
Thanks to everyone for the health care and friendly environment you have provided Spartacus over the years. Your support and heart felt caring during Spartacus' recent health crisis is deeply appreciated by Spartacus, Brian, and Stan. He pulled through and we are looking forward to continuing our relationship with the Cedar Animal Hospital for many more years.
Radish Renee-Robin and MacKenzie from Spicer, MN
Pet Name: Radish Renee
Here are a couple of pictures of Radish Renee we thought you would enjoy. Thank you so much for saving her life and taking such good care of her. We sincerely appreciate all of your patience with us and your wonderful compassion and care of our pet.

This week, the eyes of Americans are focused on Mr. Obama's forthcoming amnesty for the almost 30 million illegal aliens living in the United States, and on events in Ferguson, Missouri. Many expect large-scale civil disturbances after the grand jury decides, according to most media reports, not to indict Officer Wilson. However, history is likely to record that the gravest threat to world peace at this time arises from the negotiations among the United States, European Union, and the Islamic regime of Iran over Iran's nuclear program. The deadline for a "comprehensive" accord is set for this coming Monday, November 24, 2014.
The principal negotiators are Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, U.S. Secretary of State John Forbes Kerry and European Union envoy Catherine Ashton. The United States and Europe seek to defuse a long confrontation with Iran that ultimately threatens nuclear war between Iran and Israel. Iran's top aide to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Ali Akbar Velayati, has said that Iran would not abandon its nuclear "rights," but still was committed to the negotiations. This means that the Iranian mullahs, being shrewd negotiators, will develop nuclear weapons while the United States and Europe continue to negotiate. Of course, Iran denies any secret nuclear weapons program, and says that it only wants peaceful nuclear energy, notwithstanding its immense reserves of petroleum and natural gas. Iran refused to curb nuclear enrichment capacity, and as a result, has been hit by crippling sanctions imposed by the United States, the European Union, and United Nations Security Council. The present negotiations seek to put verifiable limits on Iran's uranium enrichment work that provide a path to nuclear weapons in return for a lifting of economic sanctions against Iran. According to media reports, Western and Iranian diplomats involved in the negotiations stress that the major unresolved issues are the size of Iran's enrichment program, the length of any long-term agreement, and the pace at which international sanctions would be phased out. The Obama Administration seeks verification and monitoring measures to ensure Iran is living up to its end of the bargain. Good luck with that as there is much to negotiate in the coming few days.
Related to the Iranian nuclear negotiations, I have often written on these pages about the plight of Pastor Saeed Abedini, the American pastor who is wrongly imprisoned in Iran. After more than two years in captivity in Iran's notorious prisons, his family reports that he is suffering great pain from internal injuries from frequent prison beatings by both guards and other prisoners. And while the feckless Obama Administration is sitting across the table from Iran with the November 24th deadline that is likely to release billions of dollars and Euros to Iran, the plight of Pastor Abedini is ignored. Can we naively trust the mullahs of Iran who are committed to the destruction of Israel as their regime wrongfully imprisons and torments an American pastor (and many other Christians)? I don't think so either.
When soldier Bowe Bergdahl, held by the Haqqani network in Afghanistan, was exchanged earlier this year for five Taliban members held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Mr. Obama promised that he would leave no American behind. We must now hold Mr. Obama to his promise. Please pray for Pastor Abedini, his wife, and their two beautiful children. I encourage each of my readers to please call or write Mr. Obama regarding this matter. The telephone number to the main White House switchboard is 1.202.456.1414, or you can email him here. As you may have heard, Mr. Obama has repeatedly said that he is committed to creating the most open and accessible administration in American history. So I think he would enjoy hearing from regular folks about the plight of Pastor Abedini. And as we move towards the Thanksgiving Day holiday, let us be mindful that we are admonished in Hebrews 13:3 to "Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering."

O'Quinn graduated from Emory & Henry College with a degree in political science and history. Prior to attending college, he went to Patrick Henry High School in Glade Spring, VA.
O'Quinn has previously worked in the office of Attorney General Jerry Kilgore and as the executive director of the Republican Party of Virginia's Victory campaign. He is a former Commissioner on the Virginia Tobacco Commission and a Board member of the Virginia Public Safety Foundation.
Committee assignments
At the beginning of the 2014 legislative session, O'Quinn served on the following committees:
|Virginia Committee Assignments, 2014
|• Commerce and Labor
|• Militia, Police and Public Safety
|• Privileges and Elections
In the 2012-2013 legislative session, O'Quinn served on the following committees:
|Virginia Committee Assignments, 2012
|• Finance
|• Militia, Police and Public Safety
|• Privileges and Elections
Campaign themes
O'Quinn's website highlighted the following campaign themes:
- Agriculture
Excerpt: "If elected, Israel plans to host an agriculture conference at which farmers, vendors and all of Virginia's agricultural resources can connect and learn best practices. The Commonwealth of Virginia should be there to help the agriculture community, not over-regulate them and choke them to death."
- Education
Excerpt: "A great education begins with great teachers, and that is why we must recruit and retain the very best educators. To be able to retain those teachers, we must raise Virginia's teacher pay to the national average. While times are tight now, Education must remain as one of our top priorities."
- Energy
Excerpt: "Many people throughout the 5th District are employed by a variety of energy companies. While there are those in Washington, DC who would love to shut the energy sector down, their sentiments are extremely misguided. Not only would they put thousands of Southwest Virginians out of work, they would make our electric bills skyrocket. Israel will fight the federal cap and trade legislation that would devastate our economy."
- Fiscal Responsibility
Excerpt: "Virginia is a pay-as-you-go state, which has saved us from the problems facing many states such as California or New Jersey. We live under a biennial budget and the General Assembly cannot adjourn until that budget is balanced. Once it is balanced, state government cannot exceed its boundaries. Israel believes that is exactly how the budget should work."
O'Quinn won re-election in the 2013 election for Virginia House of Delegates District 5. O'Quinn ran unopposed in the June 11th Republican primary. He was unopposed in the general election, which took place on November 5, 2013.[1]
On November 8, 2011, O'Quinn won election to District 5 of the Virginia House of Delegates. He was uncontested in the August 23 GOP primary and defeated Michael Osborne (I) in the November 8 general election.[2]

Legislative scorecards are used to evaluate elected public officials based on voting record. Some scorecards are created by political advocacy groups with a focus on specific issues, while others are developed by newspapers and are broad in scope. Scorecards are meant to be used as a tool for voters to have a quick picture of whether their views align with a particular legislator's record.
Because scorecards can be specific to particular issues or general to a state's legislative term, for example, each report should be considered on its own merits. Each entity that publishes these reports uses different methodologies and definitions for the terms used.
An overview for scorecards in all 50 states can be found on this page. To contribute to the list of Virginia scorecards, email suggestions to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Please see our writing guidelines if you would like to add results from an individual scorecard to this legislator's profile.

Winter can be hard on your dog. All the salt on the roads and sidewalks is irritating to the paws, as is the ice and cold in general for that matter. Short hair breeds often get chilled in lower temperatures. Even indoors, your canine friend is probably seeking out the warmest spot in the house for a rest.
There are a few things you can do to help keep your pet more comfortable when the snow starts flying. You can cover your dog's paws, use a pet-safe ice melting product, and take other precautions to keep them nice and warm.
Here are 9 products to help you with all of these goals!
Keeping Your Pup Safe and Warm 1 of 10
Keep your canine healthy, happy, and warm this winter. These 9 products are great for the snowy times ahead.
Keep The Ground Safe For Your Pets! 2 of 10
The traditional salt that's used to melt ice can irritate your pet's paws and skin. Safe Paw ice melter is non-toxic and safe for your pet's feet. It is child-safe as well. Consumer reviews of the product are particularly good.
Fleece For Your Furry Friends 3 of 10
Fleece is wonderful because it is a warm, light fabric that holds in body temperature quite well. These fleece hoodies for dogs come in multiple sizes. As a bonus they are totally adorable!
Paw Protection Is A Must! 4 of 10
Musher's Secret is an all natural moisturizing wax-based cream that can be applied to your dog's feet to protect them from hot and cold surfaces, as well as rough surfaces like sand, salt, and ice. The cream also contains vitamin E to soothe irritated feet. It is an awesome way to easily keep your pets comfortable in winter.
Don't Forget Your Booties Cause It's Cold Out There 5 of 10
These winter proof boots are great for dogs with feet that are sensitive to the cold or who will have to be in snow for any length of time. The boots also protect against irritation from salt when out on walks.
It Works Just Like A Hot Water Bottle 6 of 10
The Playa Pup Warmer heated pad is pressure activated. It will turn on and off based on whether your dog is lying on it. The pad is durable and also comes with a chew resistant cord. It is available in multiple sizes.
Trendy Styles For Your Fashionable Pooch! 7 of 10
This red tartan fleece vest is both warm and stylish. This item will provide warmth over your dog's core, but also allows for maximum flexibility and movement since it does not have leg pieces. It is great for both indoor and outdoor warmth.
If They Still Need A Little Fresh Air 8 of 10
If you have a chilly area that your dog spends time in, this heavy duty heated mat is rated for use outdoors. It is perfect for dog houses or chilly back porches.
Keep Cozy On Those Road Trips… 9 of 10
This item is not pet specific. Instead, it is a general heated blanket for your car. If you travel with your pet on cold days you can help keep your friend warm during the ride. This is also a good emergency item to have in your vehicle. Don't use this with pets that tend to chew on their bedding though!
Purchase for $36.50 at Amazon.com
Keep Those Pups Bundled Up! 10 of 10
For extended time in the snow, your dog might appreciate something heavy duty. This winter snow coat fits the bill. One note, however, consumers report that it runs small, so keep that in mind if you order one.

Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z6 Review
Lifestyle 26 Views
The Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z6 is a 6 megapixel, 12x optical zoom digital camera. If you're in the market for a high optical zoom camera, you should head over to DigitalCameraReview.com to check out this review. Their findings? The camera has good autofocus, anti-shake, battery life, and of course, optical zoom for $300. Their problems? The camera has nasty overexposure and higher than average noise.

The power steering went out on my car. It was a small valve that failed, but we could not get a replacement part until this morning. Hubby replaced it and I was up and running again. While at the dealership, we got the quote on the new tires as it is due to go in for service in two weeks. We want to have the tires replaced while it is in and get all this done in one day. For some reason, they want me to get one brand of tires over the other and I have check out on the internet and I will get better wear out of the one that I want. When leaving I asked Hubby why to guys seem to think I am clueless when discussing my car and what I need for it. He just laughed and said well they are use to women letting them make the decisions on their vechiles and they do not think you should question them. Well, I had also shown Hubby the information I had found and he agreed with me. When leaving I remarked that I had two weeks to decide if I get my tires here or elsewhere
Not much to report today. We had a long lazy day. It was hot so we just cooled it by the AC and nibbled on fresh fruit and ate some popcorn and watched a couple of movies we have had for a while and never the time to sit down and watch. Coco cooled it with us. She would watch us eating some fruit and she would bring out one of her treats that she had hidden away for a special time
Well, the are in a transition period with little Coco. The vet had me switch from a topical worm and flea medication to the oral. I was afraid I would have a hard time getting her to take the tablets, but she just gobbled them up. I feed her immdiately afterward so they would not be on an emplty tummy. On advised to give with a meal. I am switching her shampoo to one that is good for the skin. Hope it works. She has some dry spots so I am trying to avoid that. It cost enough so it should work (???? as if cost has anything to do with it) I went to Petsmart and 6 lbs of her food and the shampoo was over $35.00. She went with me and wanted to shop on her own. She is so funny. She walks down the aisles and sniffs of the items on the bottom shelf. She does not try to get them or anything, but just sniff. There was a toy on the floor and she sniffed, it looked up at me as if to say, it was not me that left this one on the floor. Hubby always comments to her about her toys being strown all over the floor.
I was hoping we would have a few days without the horrid thunderstorms each day, but no, in watching the weather on the local, we will be having the daily storms through next week. I just would like to have a day I could plan to go somewhere and not get soaked. Coco is wanting her day at the doggie park, but the storms are coming earlier int he day when I was usually taking her.
I enjoyed all the comments to my post regarding the blackmailing nature of my little Coco. Today was much better. I got up early, fixed myself a cup of hot tea, picked her up and put her in my lap to watch the morning news while sipping my tea. Apparently, that help to keep her calm today, as I gave her my full attention very early. She was curled in my lap while I watched the news. I woke her up and took her outside to run around for a little while before I took off and ran my errands. This seemed to work today. Maybe I will try it again tomorrow to see if that will keep her happy

Forgot to write this yesterday ... I blame the pre-Xmas social round! Both of these were bought after being seen elsewhere (at least the author was, in the latter case).
Simon Garfield. We Are at War: The Diaries of Five Ordinary People in Extraordinary Times. London: Ebury Press, 2006. Drawn from the Mass-Observation archives, covering from August 1939 to October 1940, so should be a fair bit of air raid stuff to keep me interested. Would have liked to have it go to the end of the Blitz but one can't have everything.
Peter Hennessy. Never Again: Britain 1945-51. London: Penguin, 2006 [1992]. Post-war Britain is still a bit of an unknown country to me, as I've spent so long now reading up on, first the Edwardian period, and now the World Wars and the bit in between, so this is just the ticket.

Why you can't hear Jet on an iPod
Unfortunately, iPod's in Australia are etchnically in breach of copyright if you copy CD's to them! Plus, iTunes music service is not available in Australia anytime soon.

As far as I understand australian law does not allow backing up of music cds. So legaly the iPod is usless unless you are carrying around 20gig of your own bands work. As for jets album iTunes will rip it with out a problem.
Posted by Ben on November 28, 2003 at 10:46 PM (CST)
Itunes for windows (and any other music program) will not copy protected cds. They can be copied if a person holds down shift when the CD is put in (as the copy protection cannot load). As an aussie, the law sucks but you americans have your laws enforced more. Currently ARIA (the Aussie equivilent of the RIAA) has done nothing to stop pirating and [unofficially] has said they arent going to go after copiers (sharers maybe). and plus, with the price of the microphone - why would we use the pod as a dictation tool. even with the exchange rate we would have to be out of our minds ('cept for the people that would buy anything with the apple logo)
Posted by timmy in Melbourne, Australia on November 29, 2003 at 5:24 AM (CST)
also, this rule does not only apply to iPods. After purchasing a few EMI cd's - I found not only did they have issues playing in my CD player, but would crash iTunes if I tried to even play them, let alone rip, and they would also give a "no copy" message when I tried to optically dub to minidisc.
I emailed a complaint to EMI about this, and got a rather nasty reply duplicating things that have been mentioned in this thread already, such as there being no law to allow copying for personal use. In response to this, I mentioned that I intended to report them to the ACCC. My reasoning was based on the fact that any 'disc' with copy-protection is not in fact, technically, a CD - which is why you will never find the 'Compact Disc' logo on any copy-protected release. However, the back cover of Radiohead's Hail To The Thief clearly has "Compact Disc" written in large type, and other releases have poor indication of the fact they are copy-protected (never mind the awful logo which does not communicate anything - if you never saw it before, what the hell about it would indicate copy protection?). Not only that, but they sell and promote these copy-protected releases as CD's.
They started bouncing my emails.
Now, I didn't end up going to the ACCC, mainly, because it was going to end up way to much work for me on what would probably end up being a fruitless task. The bottom line is though, Australian Copyright Law is screwed, and EMI are positively the rudest and customer unfriendly company I have ever dealt with. Their response of "tough" is absolutely unacceptable. CD sales are down, not because of file sharing, but due to record companies absolute contempt for their customers.
Posted by Nathan Adams on November 30, 2003 at 7:03 AM (CST)
"HOWEVER you are BY LAW entitled to backup and DIGITAL encoding bought for PERSONAL USE. This includes music and Software."
Not true at all. Check http://www.copyright.org.au for the rules and regs (particularly G50 - Computer Software, page 4, paragraph 5).
In the early 90s there was a proposal to make home taping legal + add a small 'tax' on blank cassettes to compensate musicians, but this never got up.
Now we have the ludicrous situation of me wanting to use a tune (La Grange) in an iMovie project. I don't own it, can't buy it RIGHT NOW (you know how it is…) and would have to pay $20 for a full CD just for one song. So what do I do? I download it…
By putting this into my iMovie and making a DVD out of it for a few people I have broken three laws ( illegal possession of copyrighted material, illegal reproduction, illegal distribution).
Have I deprived ZZ Top of income? Maybe 20 cents. Might my inclusion of this music stimulate sales ... perhaps.
If ARIA and APRA (think RIAA) decided to live in the real world, they'd relax copying rules and allow for LEGAL downloads so I could pay them money and not be branded a sneaky MP3 downloading crim. Then we all win :-)
And now, I will slink away….

All i want to know is the idiots way of getting songs from the Jet CD on to my iPod. I need idiot proof instructions because i suck with computers. Any help would be appreciated

SES London 2011 is just around the corner. It will be held Feb. 21-25, 2011, in a new location. And it will feature a number of significant changes to the conference agenda that reflect the new branding of SES as "The Leading Search and Social Marketing Event."
Let's start with the new location: The Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, London. As you can see from the photo below, the Centre is uniquely situated amongst Big Ben, Westminster Abbey an The Houses of Parliament.
Known as one of the most technologically intelligent conference centres in the UK, the QEIICC provides wireless internet access throughout, digital signage across seven floors, and high definition audio visual equipment. And the Centre's imaginitive yet uncomplicated style of food has seen them win the gold award at the Meetings and Incentive Travel Awards (M&IT) for the past three years.
And take a long look at the conference agenda for SES London 2011.
Following its re-branding earlier this year, the event has expanded its conference to include education in social media marketing in addition to search marketing and online advertising. More than 14 new sessions will focus on a range of topics that go beyond search, including new ad formats and social media marketing.
In addition to the sessions on search marketing which continue to be much in demand and heavily attended, the new sessions include:
• Key points in launching a Global Website
• Marketing to the European Union
• PPC Beyond Search: New Ad Formats, Display & Social
• Enterprise Level SEO
• Ads in a Quality Score World
• Is Search Remarketing/Retargeting Right for You?
• Crossing the Digital Divide: The Leap From Search to Display
• Video Search Optimisation
• Killer Facebook Marketing Tactics
• SEO Through Blogs & Feeds
• Making Money With Affiliate Programs
• Search, PR and the Social Butterfly
• Speaking Geek: How Marketers Can Work with Web Developers to Achieve Business Goals
• Social Media & the Marketing Mix
There's also a 15th conference session reserved for a late-breaking topic.
Mike Grehan, Chair of the SES Advisory Board as well as Global VP Content for SES, Search Engine Watch, and ClickZ, says, "We have extended SES to cover a range of new areas focused on maximising reach and growing businesses through online marketing. In 2009 more than £15bn was spent on advertising in the UK with over 24% coming from spend online. Areas such as social media marketing and VoD have seen huge growth in the last 12 months and SES London will teach delegates how to enhance
their expertise in these fields."
By the way, those aren't spelling errors in the post above. That's the correct spelling of "Center", "optimization", and "maximizing" in the UK. And £15 billion British pounds sterling is about €17.7 billion Euros or $23.6 billion US dollars. In other words, it's a ton of money.
And don't be surprised in there are a lot of attendees at SES London 2011 from other countries around the world as well as the UK. It's one of the "must-attend events" for global marketers. You can get a sense of this by watching the SES London 2010 attendee testimonials in the video below.

I should disclose that SES is a client of my agency. But trust me on the spelling.
