****Note From Raven Lament****
In a nutshell K-9 New Life Center rescues all breeds of dogs has them vet checked and made healthy and then finds them new homes. This can be very very expensive as some dogs come in with such issues as heartworms which cost almost $1000 to treat. They also neuter or spay all dogs before adoption. They also have taken in some really bad abuse and neglect cases including a dog that was pregnant and placed in a trash bag and thrown into a ditch to die and another dog that was shot and left to die. I am happy to say both dogs were nursed back and found awesome homes including all of the mommy dogs pups. I have personally been involved RL with this charity for 9 years and have seen all of the success stories and happy endings. It is an awesome cause and I would love to really try to help them out by using our virtual power!
Visit the K-9 New Life Center to see the dogs for adoption or to read about the rescue!

Flamingo Design Challenge (extra Info)
March 5, 2008

See the prior post for (the details)
Want to address a few things that have come up
1. This is open to all of Second Life’s Fashion Designers. You do NOT need to be a member of The Cafe Society.
2. You MAY enter more then one item, BUT you MUST complete a entry form FOR EACH item entered if it’s not a complete outfit.. Example You make a Dress, which comes with hat, gloves, jacket, shirt, shirt, these are purchased as 1 item through your vendor so it counts as 1 item/entry. You also get so caught up in the fuschia feathered frenzy you whip a wild pair of jeans. These are sold through your vendor as 1 item therefore 1 entry (fill out another form to enter it-and label the entry instore as Entry #2) But no, you dont stop there, you’ve gone stark raving mad and done a set of t shirts. Well here it gets tricky, if you sell them as a fatpack that fatpack cannot count as 1 entry, UNLESS you ONLY make it available for sale as 1 item. If you set them separated out in the store too for sale, each one must then count as an entry.
3. yes its a REAL award (all official like cause thats how we roll) in fact its a Flamingo Statuette on base. Crafted of the finest Purple Gems known in Second Life. I Spy a diamond for the eye.
Running out of coffee so I hope this made sense
