Denver's Angel, Cancer survivor, 9, funds support dog for 2-year-old

You will cry but happy tears. Children should never be underestimated, and a lot, A LOT, of adults could learn a lesson about what is important on this floating pebble in space.



Cancer survivor, 9, funds support dog for 2-year-old
By Kirk Mitchell, The Denver Post
"After two years of surgery, chemotherapy and treatment for a brain tumor, 9-year-old Allison Winn wanted other kids with cancer to have a companion like her dog, Coco.

"She made me feel better," Allison said.

So when she regained her strength at the end of spring, Allison embarked on a fundraising campaign of her own invention to pay for feeding and training companion dogs for kids like her.

On Tuesday, in the lobby of the women's prison where Coco and the new dog were trained, she watched quietly, but intently, as 2-year-old cancer survivor Krysta Hubbard caressed the nose of Lucky Bug, a gentle black Labrador. Krysta affectionately called him "Puppy."

She has also raised enough money to buy two more dogs and hopes to start a dog biscuit fundraising company.

Guy Laliberté Goes to Space, The ISS is now B612 :)

That is how I will think of it while Guy is up there :)





He took the book The Little Prince with him to show he has fulfilled a childhood dream.

Watch the Launch footage here:


The Lion you see was given to him by his daughters so he would have a little bit of home plus it was there to signify when they reached zero gravity.

There was another reason why he went.. Tune in on October 9th:

Lost and Found Dog Saves Life of Boy with Down Syndrome

Another "paws" needed in the day for this story. Don't EVEN pretend you did not get tears in your eyes :) Thanks Rick for the happy tears! :)
A lost and then found dog finds his true place in the world.
"Segovia and Savige made 4,000 FOUND flyers with the dog's picture, stuffed mailboxes and put an ad on Craigslist. When no one called, RaeLee stayed the night at the Segovias' house. His dog bed was placed in the living room, but when the boys climbed into their twin beds, RaeLee dragged his bed down the long hallway and bunked with the boys in their room.

By Saturday -- four days later -- no one had called to claim RaeLee, and he was still living with the Segovias. The honey-colored terrier had started responding to his new name. He almost never barked, loved playing rambunctiously with Azaiah, and was tender with Christian.

One afternoon, the dog settled himself on the floor near Christian as he watched a "Barney" video in his room. Segovia was outside watering the plants when the placid moment was shattered by the sound of RaeLee crashing into the screen door and barking crazily. Alarmed, Segovia opened the door, only to have the dog race back through the house towards the boys' room. Segovia followed, screaming when she caught sight of her son. Christian was "slumped over, his body writhing in a seizure, blood streaming from his nose and mouth." RaeLee stood next to him yelping, but suddenly went quiet when Yolanda reached down to hold her son.

"If he hadn't come to get me," Segovia said, "the neurologist said Christian would have choked on his own blood and died." The dog, she decided, was a keeper.

But the next day, Segovia and her sons were heartbroken when someone called to claim the dog they had come to love. "

Precious Pug Pushes Poppets in Portland

Why does this almost make me want to cry? It's just so cute, look how she lets her toy babies get some splash on.. So sweet. Go for a walk right now... smile a lot about tiny cute things. You have plenty of time to grump about whatever it is you are grumping about when you get back :)

"Jenny the Pug pushes her Nintendog Pug dollies around Portland, Oregon. She leaves from our home, goes under the St Johns Bridge, visits Waterfront Park, Downtown Portland, Union Station, Pittock Mansion, Rose Gardens, the Grotto, and returns back home."

Stealy McStealerpantz!

I am only guessing that's what this "Little Man's" name is :) He lulled them into a false sense of security.. then BAM! Plan in effect!

The cuteness of this guy should have tipped them off.. you can tell he works that cuteness for personal gain ;) Hope you are having a very gainful and ice creamy weekend :)

Recession? Blondes to the Rescue!

Economic woes got your country down? Send in the Blondes! Marika Gidere of the Latvian Blondes' Association believes gathering 500 fair-haired females this weekend in Riga for golf, contests, a parade and more, may just be the bombshell they need to drop to pick up Latvian spirits. The BBC reports today that Latvia, home to 2.3 million people, is going through one of the most severe recessions in the European Union.

"People are depressed, they don't have enough positive emotions," she added.
"The economic situation is such that society needs these types of events," Ms Gidere continues, "And this is something very positive and fun. And we know that blondes have more fun."

Their motto is Make the World a Brighter Place... even as a brunette I hope their plan works. Read the whole article here on the BBC.
