I really don’t like relaying bad news, especially when it’s nobody’s fault and beyond anyone’s control.
That’s why the news lately is all the more alarming. It’s about the drought. You may know that California residents are in the midst of what is now certainly a critical water emergency.
Lynn Ingram, professor of paleoclimatology at UC Berkeley said that this may be the worst drought since the 1500’s and the U.S. National Academy of Sciences agrees, reporting that the U.S. interior west is now the driest that it has been in 500 years. Dr. Ingram says that it could last several decades. In other words, it isn’t likely to improve. It likely to only get worse.
Almost a year ago Gov. Jerry Brown called for a voluntary 20% reduction in water usage, but it seems to no avail.
Now some 17 Bay area communities could run out of water.
That’s the bad news. The good news is that every single household can do something to help themselves right now. They can store extra water now.
At WaterPrepared, our mission is to see that every individual, family and household in America is not just prepared for emergencies, but is water prepared. Increasingly, pure fresh water, suitable for human consumption, is an increasingly scarce commodity. Water is life. Drought is death.
Sure, rationing is a serious conservation measure and will delay running out completely. California officials are already deciding that.
Sure, water can be shipped in from expensive desalinization plants. Officials are already planning that.
Sure, drivers can truck bottled water to you in an extended crisis, adding gas and delivery charges to the cost of nature’s most precious resource. Nothing could prepare residents for that.
See, I start asking questions when I read about stuff like that. Questions like;
* How much can be shipped at a time?
* In a single day?For how many people? In what areas?
* What are the chances we will actually have enough if we relied on this manner for our families?
I have a wife and kids, in-laws, unmarried siblings and then some to take care of. Not having access to basic necessities is a serious concern for me. California isn’t the only state in a water crisis, they are just in a bigger crisis.
And this is without any kind of natural or catastrophic disaster, the like which we saw recently in the chemical spill in West Virginia: Unexpected, catastrophic, far reaching and worse than initially reported (it always seems to be worse they we are told).
The only plan the government has is to ask you to voluntarily use less. There is no plan for filling up the reservoirs other than waiting. How could there be!
This is exactly why we started WaterPrepared.
The WaterPrepared Emergency Water Tank is your best bet and easiest to use solution to a water crisis. These tanks are stackable, and they fit through an ordinary door, while still holding 160 gallons each!
Water Prepared makes it easy for you to store water now for your family. If the day does come when water rationing arrives, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you have some in reserve.
If the day does come when the only way to get water is to ship it in by truck, as they have to in some small towns in West Virginia even now, you and your family will have your reserve. In other words, you won’t be paying extra for tiny amounts of bottled water in an emergency.
It is what preparedness is all about.
Finally, have you thought about what would actually happen if communities could not get water in time?
Would populations be evacuated, creating American refugees?
Would communities be abandoned as families move to water rich areas for survival?
We’re talking about the shifting of entire populations in almost no time. Now that’s a crisis.
Why wait to find out? Get your family water prepared. Call us today and have your tanks filled before it gets worse. Water emergencies have come to America.
Water is life. Drought is death.
Are you water prepared today? Will you be tomorrow?
Call (888) 252-6522 now, and get water prepared.

Raven, a 13-year old Yorkie mix, also came to us from Cleveland Animal Care & Control in September. She was quite thin with significant hair loss. In fact, her back was nearly bald, as you can see in the picture on the left. After several weeks of a good diet and medicated baths, she is starting to look and feel much better. Raven still has a ways to go, but we are confident that she will be healthy with a beautiful coat soon. In the photo on the right, she has begun to settle into her foster home and enjoy her meals.
Raven has been adopted by a loving family that understands her special needs and will love her unconditionally for life.
Rambler Ann, a 9-year-old Border Collie/Pit Bull mix, came to us in July 2017 from Cleveland Animal Care & Control. She is easy-going and friendly, a joy to be around. She has been spayed and is healthy and ready for her very own home. Rambler Ann has been working with an area force-free trainer to become less reactive to certain other dogs. She will need to continue training for a bit in order to make a smooth transition to a new home. Rambler Ann should be the only pet in the home or share her home with a laid back, easy-going dog that she responds well to and that will not challenge her.
Rambler Ann was adopted by her foster family when it became clear that she was completely comfortable there after a tough time settling in. She has a canine best friend that has helped her adjust, and we are happy that she will never have to move again.

Townshend, a senior Shepherd mix, came to us from Cleveland Animal Care & Control in late January. He developed a serious case of pneumonia very suddenly and was hospitalized for a few days. He is back in his foster home now and on the mend. He has gained a little weight and been neutered, so he is ready for his very own home. He is a very sweet old man, but we do not think he would enjoy a home with cats.
Townshend has been adopted by an active family that will give him great care and plenty of love, and he is now the only pet in his home; he is happy being the king of his castle.
Sweet June, a senior Beagle/Min Pin mix, came to the Sanctuary from Cleveland Animal Care & Control. She had a hernia the size of an orange that needed immediate repair, as you can see in her kennel picture on the left. Dr. Bob of the Tremont Animal Clinic, shown holding her on the right, scheduled her for surgery right away. We are happy to report that June had her hernia repaired, was spayed, and had several benign mammary masses removed. Her recovery is complete, and she healthy and happy, looking for her very own special home. June is estimated to be about 13 years old, but you would never guess that from her energy level and her zest for life. She is a true love of a dog. She will capture your heart and give back all the love you shower her with tenfold.
June has been adopted by a wonderful couple who will cherish her for life.
Emily, a senior Chihuahua from Cleveland Animal Care & Control with some very big ears. She had developed some very serious health issues that we aggressively treated. Emily was diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, which is now being effectively managed with diet.
Emily settled in to her foster home so well and her health was so delicate that her foster caregivers adopted her so that she could stay in the home that she had come to love. She is shown here with one of her new best friends. She can always be found playing or sleeping with one of her new best friends.
Frosty, a handsome, soulful 7- to 9-year old Golden Retriever mix, arrived last week from Cleveland Animal Care & Control a matted, filthy, anxious mess. He went straight to Style Mutt Dog Boutique where the wonderful groomers there cleaned him up and made him feel so much better. His next stop was to see Dr. Bob at the Tremont Animal Clinic. His medical problems--urinary tract infection, intestinal parasites, and mild arthritis--have responded to medication. He also had an ultrasound to investigate some lingering bladder issues. He is now healthy and happy. Frosty has qualities that would make him an excellent candidate for a therapy dog.
Frosty has been neutered and then was adopted by a couple who love him dearly and will give him everything he needs for life. He is one lucky pup.
Willy, a 9-year-old Shih Tzu, came to us recently when Cleveland Animal Care & Control picked him up so matted, filthy, and flea-infested, that he could not see for the mats completely covering his eyes (double picture at left). The kind staff there shaved him down immediately making him feel so much better. He is already neutered and is healthy except for dry eye, which will require life-long treatment with eye ointment. Since he has left the kennel and boarding, he has relaxed and is enjoying his foster home. Willy loves friendly dogs and people, and even seemed to enjoy the somewhat exuberant attention of the larger dogs in play groups while still in the kennel.
Following Willy's make over, he had many people interested in him because he is so darned cute and lovable. He was adopted by a family with two big Newfies that have become Willy's best friends.
Petula, 13- to 14-year-old Poodle mix, came to us from Cleveland Animal Care & Control in September horribly matted and in very poor health. She is recovering and may be available for adoption if her health continues to improve. The photo on the left was taken when she arrived at Animal Control. In the center photo, she has been shaved down and the mats removed. The photo on the right shows her beauty after she was groomed and had a photo session with Portraits by Martha. Petula's health continues to improve, and she is very energetic and affectionate.
Petula has been adopted by a loving couple with two other small dogs that immediately followed Petual around cementing their friendship. She will have everything she needs for life.
ADOPTED!!!! Jett, a "young senior" Chihuahua/Dachshund mix at 6 to 7 years old, was thought to be a very frightened older dog when we took her from Cleveland Animal Care & Control (picture at left). But it turns out that she is actually younger than anyone thought, quite healthy, and not afraid once she was out of the kennel and secure in her foster home. She is beautiful with the biggest ears we have seen in a long time. Jett loves to play with the other dogs in her foster home, so she would like nothing better than a home of her very own with a friendly dog or two as companions.
Jett was adopted by a family experienced in small rescue dogs. She joins two others in a happy home with lots of windows to watch the world go by.
Sir Jonathon (FKA Poodle Man), is about 12 years old from Cleveland Animal Care & Control (picture on the left) and had his first vet check up which went well, but he has since developed an issue with his back that has responded well to medication. He has been groomed (picture on the right) and is ready for his very own home.
Sir Jonathon has gone to his new home with a wonderful young woman who is getting laser treatments for his back issues and surrounding him with the love he deserves.
Blanche, a 12-year-old toy Poodle, is a sweet bundle of love. She has been successfully spayed and has had some mammary tumors removed. She is a real love and absolutely adorable, but she prefers to be the only dog in the home or top share her home with a smaller more submissive dog. She loves to be carried and to sit in your lap. The person lucky enough to adopt her will have a devoted friend.
Blanche has been adopted by a couple who will provide her with unconditional love and the best of care for the rest of her life. As an added bonus, she has a new best friend, an old blind Poodle named Charlie.
Grayson, a 7-year-old Poodle mix, came to us when he was not adopted from an area shelter. He is full of fun, friendly, and energetic. He needs the company of active people and other dogs. He also enjoys time in his securely fenced backyard playing with his people and his dog friends. Grayson is healthy and happy, but he can be a bit of a barker when he is excited, so he would not be a good fit for an apartment.
Grayson has been adopted by a couple with a younger dog that looks amazingly like Grayson. On his first day in his new home, Grayson ran and played, chasing Clark around and around the yard, both clearly enjoying the company of another dog.

Pebbles, a senior Shih Tzu mix, is a sweetheart of a dog. She came to us with multiple health issues that have now been addressed. She has just been spayed and is ready for her new home. She has some issues with her rear legs, possibly from past trauma. She gets around fine but has a charming little wobble when she walks. You will have an immediate best friend for life when you adopt Ms Pebbles!
Pebbles is much more bonded to dogs than she is to people. She has been adopted into a home with a fenced yard for her to run and play with her best little dog friends.

Skittles, a 10-year-old affectionate and sweet little Chihuahua, was found in a downtown Cleveland neighborhood and turned in to animal care by a good Samaritan. She had a check up at our veterinary clinic and then had all of her badly infected teeth removed. But that doesn't stop her from enjoying her meals and her life. And, yes, she is as loving as she is adorable.

Jackie, an 8- to 10-year-old, large and lovable Terrier mix, was picked up while wandering a local Cleveland cemetery, and, although her family was located, they could not take her back. So she came to us and has not looked back. Since her blood work was unremarkable, a large mass under her shoulder will be removed in a couple of weeks after she has settled into her new life. We are so glad to have her.
Update: Jackie, now known as Sandy, made her first appearance to Adoption Sunday just a few days after her surgery. There she found a person who will love her unconditionally. She was recently spotted at the Summer Scoop, showing off her good fortune at being adopted.
Mister and Chica Louise, a bonded pair of 12-year-old Chihuahuas, have been together their entire lives, and they need to stay together now. After losing the only home they have ever know, they came to the Sanctuary a bit shy and frightened. But it didn't take long for them to realize that they were safe and still had each other. Typical Chihuahuas, Mister and Chica Louise warm up to people fairly quickly once they realize they can trust them. They have both had dentals and complete health checks, and they are ready for their forever home where they will be cherished for life.
Update: Mister & Chica Louise have been adopted by a loving couple who came for one dog and ended up with two! They also have a Chihuahua mix named Diablo, but don't worry. He is not a little devil, and he and the three of them are getting along famously.
Cassidy, a 7- to 8-year-old Terrier is a bundle of love and energy. She was treated for a very serious urinary tract infection, which is now gone. She has also been spayed and had a dental in which she lost five teeth. But she is now healthy and happy and ready for her very own home.
Cassidy has been adopted by a retired woman who has a senior dog in need of companionship, and she will be happy and well-loved for life. Congratulations, Cassidy!
Sydney, a 12-year-old Pomeranian, came to the Sanctuary with Boopsie, Polie, and Twisty when they were confiscated from the home of a woman who could no longer care for them. They had been living in deplorable conditions without veterinary care for many years. Each has some health issues that our veterinarian is addressing, primarily urinary tract infections and bad teeth. They have now all been spayed, had much-needed dentals, and had their other medical needs met. Sydney was such a good fit in her foster home that she was immediately adopted by her foster family. She shares her home with two other Pomeranians, both Forever Fosters with the Sanctuary, and a Min Pin also adopted from the Sanctuary. Congratulations, Sydney!
Cognac, a 10- to 12-year-old Sheltie mix, found herself in Cleveland Animal Care and Control with no owner coming to claim her. On arrival she was thin and distrustful, but she has settled into her foster home and is gaining in trust and confidence every day. She enjoys time spent with her people and with friendly dogs. We aren't sure how she feels about cats, so a cat-free home would be the best for her. Cognac's health is good, and we hope that she will be adopted into her very own home soon.
Cognac, now named Cocoa, was adopted by a wonderful woman who had adopted a senior dog from us five years ago. After Betty and her friend Charlie crossed the Rainbow Bridge, Mary Lou knew she needed the friendship of another old dog. She came to Adoption Sunday, met Cognac, and the rest, as they say is history.
Lilo, a very sweet, laid back, 8- to 9-year-old Shih Tzu mix, came from Cleveland Animal Care & Control where she arrived so covered in painful mats that she had to be completely shaved down. She has visited our vet and received a clean bill of health except for being a little underweight. She has gained some much-needed weight and has been spayed, so she is now ready for her very own home.
Lilo was adopted by a lovely family that had adopted two senior dogs from the Sanctuary years earlier. They needed an old dog in their lives, and they couldn't be happier with Lilo!

Milo, 8-year-old Chihuahua, from Cleveland Animal Care and Control, has been successfully treated for skin problems from long-neglected allergies. His health is much improved, and his fur has grown back. In fact, it is hard to recognize the dog that he once was in his pound picture on the right. He gets along well with other dogs unless he is busy being a lap dog; then he can be a little protective of his people. He is shown on the left in the arms of his foster caregiver, relaxed, happy, and handsome. He has come a long way from the frightened, sick little dog we brought it. he will make a wonderful addition to the right home.
After spending well over a year with the Sanctuary, Milo has found the perfect home with a loving couple who have adopted old dogs from us in the past. He takes his place in a family full of love and care. His medical needs will be met, and he will be loved unconditionally for life.
Ozzy, a 10-year-old Chihuahua, is an easy-going guy. He gets along well with everyone he meets including other friendly dogs. He was adopted by a loving couple following his first visit to Adoption Sunday. He is shown here in his new home staying warm and toasty on a cold Cleveland day. His new "dad" works from home, so Ozzy is rarely alone, and that suits him just fine!
Murdock, a 10-year-old blind Lab from a hoarding case in Pike County, came to us in January of 2015 after living in an outside pen and being confiscated by the warden. Knowing his background, we assumed he would be timid, shut down, and poorly socialized. Boy, were we wrong! Murdock is loving, outgoing, and inquisitive. Everyone he meets is his friend: cats, dogs, people. His blindness does not slow him down at all as the occasional head thunks you hear when he runs into a barrier at full tilt make clear. He even enjoys his warm towel after a bath!
Murdock has celebrated one year in his foster home in February of 2016; he is healthy and happy and ready for his very own home where he can settle in and share his irrepressible joy with the world. For more information on Murdock, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Murdock has found his home after a year and a half of waiting. He now lives with two other dogs, and a loving couple who will be sure that Murdock is happy and well-cared for.

Cinders, a 10-year-old Cocker Spaniel, is one of the sweetest, gentlest dogs we have even met. Cinders came to us from Cleveland Animal Care & Control where she was found as a stray. Cinders is hard of hearing and blind, but she immediately bonded with her foster caregiver and the other friendly dogs in her foster home. She will make a devoted and valued companion to the person lucky enough to adopt her. Cinders has been spayed and is ready for a home of her very own.
Update: Cinders has been adopted by a loving couple who dote on her and spoil her. She shares her home with two other dogs that have become her fast friends. We wish you the happiest life, Cinders.
Millicent, a 9-year-old Pug/Beagle mix who went from animal control to a large local shelter. But no one showed an interest in her, so she came to the Sanctuary where people come to find old dogs. But in under a week, her foster caregiver put dibs on Millicent, and she has been adopted by a family that has fostered and adopted several dogs from the Sanctuary in the past. Happy new life, Millicent.
Lopez, 8- to 10-year old Bichon mix, as sweet as he is adorable. He had a successful surgery to remove bladder stones and is feeling much better now. Lopez is an absolute joy of a dog, friendly, affectionate, and easy going, one of the all-around nicest dogs we have had in a while.
Update: Lopez was adopted in June 2016 by a wonderful family who had adopted another senior dog from us in 2015. Lopez joins MacDuff (now known as Milo) in a home devoted to their care. He is one very lucky and sweet old guy!

Squirt, 4- to 5-year-old Chihuahua mix thought to be older because of an eye problem that has left him blind. He has been neutered and is ready for his very own home. He is friendly to other dogs and everyone he meets. Squirt is a perfect gentleman. For more information on Squirt, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Squirt was adopted in June 2016 by a family with three other friendly little dogs. Because of an ulcer that would not heal, Squirt had one eye removed before joining his new family. His permanent wink makes him even more adorable.

Lucy D, a 15-year-old Jack Russell Terrier, was surrendered to a NE Ohio shelter, and she arrived at the Sanctuary on November 6, 2015. Shortly afterward, she developed a stubborn case of kennel cough that quickly turned to pneumonia. We are happy to report that she responded to aggressive treatment and is recovering nicely. She also has a tumor on her upper jaw that our vet believes is benign, but it will be removed in mid-December when she is spayed and has a much-needed dental. Lucy D will be placed up for adoption if her health permits; if not, she will have a loving foster home with us for whatever time she has left. We will update Lucy next week when we know more about her health. Her shelter picture is on the left. The other two pictures were taken shortly after she arrived.
Update: Our vet has estimated Lucy D's age at closer to 10 years old than 15 as the shelter stated. Good food and good care have helped her become a healthier, happier dog. She has lots of energy and loves to play with her toys. She has had her surgery and the good news is that her tumors both in her mouth and in the mammary chain were all benign. She has been spayed and is now officially looking for her very own home. For more information on Lucy D, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Lucy D was adopted in June 2016 by a lovely family who will make her the center of their home. She is one lucky little dog. When last seen, she was snoozing comfortably on the lap of her new mom.
Macie, a senior Lab mix from Morrow County, arrived November 27. She is a sweet old gal who had multiple mammary tumors that have now been removed and she has been spayed. Happily, her mammary tumors were all benign, and she has been given a clean bill of health. Macie is an easy-going dog, gentle and affectionate. She gets along well with dogs, cats, and people. She is a true gem, a loving and loyal old gal just waiting for a home of her very own.
Update: Macie has been adopted by a long term friend of the Sanctuary. She has joined another senior dog who accepted her right away. Macie was recently seen with her head in the refrigerator, exploring its contents. Enjoy the good life, Macie.

Bunny (known as Tootsie in the shelter) is an older Chihuahua who found herself alone in a NW Ohio animal shelter after a rescue took the dog she was surrendered with but did not have space for Bunny. She just arrived at the Sanctuary on November 5 and will have her first vet visit next week. We will know more about her age and her health then. Her shelter picture is on the left; the middle picture was taken on her freedom ride to Cleveland, and the picture on the right was taken in her foster home. Bunny is a little frightened, but she is starting to warm up and relax a little. She is sharing her foster home with Milo, another little Chihuahua with the Sanctuary (see below in adoptable dogs).
Update: Bunny has developed a stubborn case of kennel cough and is being treated aggressively so that it does not become pneumonia. Please keep her in your thoughts.
Update: Bunny has recovered from kennel cough, and her true personality is emerging. She is an affectionate dog with a sunny disposition despite her often serious look. She is now ready for her very own home. For more information on Bunny, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Bunny was adopted and has taken her place with two other friendly dogs and a woman who loves her and cares for her. Congratulations, Bunny!
Barney, an handsome 8-year-old Lab/Basset Hound mix, came to us from a central Ohio County where he had been taken after being removed from the home of a hoarder. Another rescue took all of the small dogs but left Barney because he was too larger for them. He came to the Sanctuary just long enough to be neutered and put on a diet to lose some much needed weight. He was quickly adopted by a retired gentleman who had adopted two unsocialized, bonded seniors from the Sanctuary many years ago. At last report, Barney, who had been a bit anxious in his foster home, had settle in nicely and was getting more comfortable every day.
Ruth, a senior Chihuahua from Lucas County, came to the Sanctuary in March of 2015. She is a small, gentle dog and will be available for adoption following completion of her heartworm treatment and surgery for cherry eye. She prefers a home as the only dog or with just one or two other friendly, low-key dogs.
Update: Ruth has successfully completed her heartworm treatment and has had her surgery to correct her cherry eyes; she is now available for adoption. If you are interested, in Ruth, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Ruth was adopted by a wonderful family who has adopted from the sanctuary in the past. She joins Charlotte (former SSD dog) and Whiz along with her human family. Congratulations, Ruth!

Autumn is a tiny, 10-year-old Yorkie from Cleveland Animal Control. She came to us with a fractured leg that has since healed. A loving dog that bonds quickly with those who love her, she has been spayed and had a much-needed dental and is now just waiting for her very own home. For more information on Autumn, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Autumn has been adopted by her foster caregiver where she shares her home with two cats, both of which are larger than she is. She is settling in nicely, and it's good to know that she will not have to move and adjust to a new home, especially since she can be a bit anxious.
Gorgeous fall portrait of Autumn courtesy of Portraits by Martha.
Arlo, a 10-year-old Doberman/hound mix, is a lively fellow, full of good cheer. He came to us from Cleveland Animal Care & Control with two large tumors that were removed and were, thankfully, benign. Aside from some skin issues caused by allergies, Arlo is a healthy dog who enjoys the love and devotion of his people. He would do best in an adult home with people who will take him for frequent short walks and shower him with attention and affection. He loves the fenced yard in his foster home, but it is not a necessity. Arlo is loyal and devoted to the people who love him.
Update: After being moved from one foster home to another for not liking cats, Arlo has finally found a home of his own. We are not sure why it took so long for him to be adopted, but he is now home.
Ginny (formerly known as Ruthie at the pound) came to us on Easter in 2015 from the Jackson County Dog Pound where she had been picked up as a stray. A cute little 7-year-old Puggle, Ginny sadly has a long way to go to health and adoptability. She went through a false (thankfully!!) pregnancy and was heartworm positive. She has just completed her heartworm treatment. The next step in her journey will be to be spayed, and then she will be ready for adoption. But her foster family has fallen in love and will adopt her as soon as she is ready. So Ginny is spoken for.
Update: Ginny has been successfully treated for heartworm and spayed. She has now been officially adopted by her foster family. It was love at first sight for Ginny and her family.
Sherlock, 10-year-old Lhasa, from a NW Ohio shelter, being treated for a skin infection. He has been neutered and is ready for his very own home.
Update: Sherlock looks like a new dog, and he has been adopted by a couple who have adopted from the Sanctuary previously. We wish Sherlock a long and happy life in his new home.
Edison, 7-year-old Boxer mix, came to the Sanctuary from an area shelter when he was found running the streets of a Cleveland suburb. Edison was adopted by a Sanctuary board member and her mother. Sadly, both recently passed away from cancer leaving Edison with no choice but to return to a Sanctuary foster home. Friendly and easy-going with people and friendly dogs, Edison will make an excellent companion for a person or family looking for a younger senior. Edison shares his foster home with several dogs and gets along well with them. He loves having a playmate, and he loves to cuddle and sit next to you on the couch.
Update: Edison has been adopted by his foster caregiver! After conversation with our veterinarian, we decided that yet another move in Edison's life would cause him undue stress and anxiety, so his foster family welcomed Edison into their home permanently.
McDuff, 10-year-old West Highland Terrier/Bichon Frise mix from a NW Ohio shelter, tested negative for Cushings disease and will need two tumors removed when he is healthy enough.
Update: McDuff was adopted as soon as his surgery was completed. His tumors were benign, and he is settling into his new home where he is already surrounded by love.
Moses, 8- to 10-year-old ShihTzu, from Cleveland Animal Care and Control. Lovable and ready for adoption.
Update: Moses was adopted by a wonderful woman looking for a best friend, and she found it in Moses. He is king of his new castle and loving every minute of it.
Jimbo,an 8-year-old Poodle, from Cleveland Animal Care and Control, is a comical and friendly dog. He loves to dance on his back legs and smile at you. He gets along well with the dogs and cats in his foster home and should be able to settle into his very own home with little trouble. Jimbo has been recently neutered and is being evaluated for hair loss and skin issues. He has also had a much-needed dental.
Jimbo, whose new name for his new life is Diego, has been adopted by an employee of our wonderful veterinarian clinic. He joins three other small dogs and a cat in his new home.
Candice, a beautiful and gentle 8-year-old Schnauzer, came to us from an urban pound where she was surrendered when her elderly owners could no longer care for her. She was so depressed and shut down that she was overlooked time and again as she huddled in the back of her kennel. She came to us to have a better chance at adoption, and after some necessary medical care, she was adopted immediately by a previous adopter and friend of the Sanctuary. Candice will share her new life with several cats and a friendly dog named Ty. We know she will enjoy a wonderful life in her new home. Photos courtesy of Portraits by Martha.
Stan Lee, a 12- to 14-year-old Shepherd/Hound/Doberman mix was confiscated by Cleveland Animal Control when the temperatures dropped below zero in January of 2015. Stan Lee had been confined outdoors his entire life with little socialization. A compassionate neighbor fed him and interacted with him when she could and then called animal control to report him. Regardless of his past, he is friendly, inquisitive, and even a little goofy sometimes. He showered our vet and volunteers with kisses on his very first day out of animal control.
He gets along well with friendly dogs and cats after a controlled and careful introduction. His health has stabilized, and he is now ready for his very own home. Stan Lee has some arthritis, so he enjoys short, easy walks and would do best in an adult home with few or no stairs. Since the weather is warmer, he enjoys riding in a cart behind his foster caregiver's bicycle with his best friend Buttercup the Chihuahua.
Update: Stan Lee has been adopted by his foster family. His best friend Buttercup is very happy about that! And we are glad that Stan Lee will stay with his family for life.
Chica, a tiny 3.6 pound sweetheart of a senior Chihuahua with a multitude of medical problems, came to the Sanctuary in mid-April 2015 from Cleveland Animal Control. She was very ill and had the worst case of dental disease we have seen in quite some time along with leg pain, possibly from an old untreated injury. She was being aggressively treated with antibiotics and pain medicine. She healed nicely, had a much-needed dental, and then was adopted almost immediately by a woman who loves her unconditionally and has named her Coraline.
Juni is a sweet, spunky, happy gal. She came to us from a rural southern Ohio shelter where she had been found wandering a major highway. Her microchip traced back to Petland and was never updated, so we have no idea what her life was like for the past 10 years, only that she was a pet store purchase. Weighing in at 13 pounds, Juni loves the companionship of her foster family, and she gets along well with the other dogs there. She has been okay with the cat, but she seems just a little too interested. If she shared her home with a cat, she would need to be closely monitored to be sure they get along. Juni is spayed and healthy except for a yeast infection that is responding to aggressive treatment. Juni is a loving, loyal dog in need of a stable, caring home. If you can open your home and your heart to little Juni, please contact the Sanctuary.
Update: Juni was adopted by a wonderful couple and now shares her life with two other dog friends who have quickly become her friends. Photo courtesy of Portraits by Martha.
Update: Juni did not appreciate the attentions of one of the dogs in her adoptive home, so she returned to the Sanctuary and was quickly adopted by Betty, a second-time adopter who was looking for the perfect little dog. She found it in Juni. The two have become fast friends. They are shown on the right on the day that Juni arrived in her new home. They are the perfect match! Photo on the left courtesy of Portraits by Martha.
Alfred, a 7- to 10-year-old Spaniel mix, came to us in September of 2014 from Cleveland Animal Control when no one came to claim him. He is shown on the left during his stay at animal control and on the right a much happier fellow enjoying a car ride. He is a small dog, currently only 20 pounds but looking to gain another 5 pounds for good measure. Alfred has been neutered and had his medical needs met. He is a friendly guy who gets along well with everyone he meets, including friendly dogs and cats. He is just waiting for his perfect home so he can relax and enjoy the rest of his life. He can be a bit vocal in new surroundings or when you come home after being away, but he settles down quickly and is happy to share your company. If you would like more information about Alfred, please contact the Sanctuary. You will be glad that you did.
Update: Alfred was adopted by a woman who will care for him and give him unconditional love for life. He shares his home with two friendly old dogs who have become his best friends. Photo on the left courtesy of Portraits by Martha.
Zippy, a 9-year-old Rat Terrier, is a sweet-natured gal; healthy and happy. She loves to play and cuddle. She recently was successfully treated for a sinus condition that caused frequent and violent sneezing. Zippy is playful and thrives on attention. She gets along well with other dogs, especially if they will play with her.
If you are looking for the perfect companion, don't over look Zippy. She is looking for love and stability in her life.
Update: After being in her foster home for nearly two years, Zippy has found her very own home that she willingly shares with several other small dogs. She is getting the best of everything. Her forever home was definitely worth waiting for. Photos courtesy of Portraits by Martha.

Controlled Potential Coulometry Experimental Sequence
- Framework™ creates a runner window, and the Controlled Potential Coulometry.EXP script is run in this window.
- The script creates the Setup dialog box, which becomes the active window and accepts changes in the experimental parameters. This Setup box remembers the experimental settings from the last time this script was run. To restore the parameters to the values defined in the script, click the Default button. If the Advanced Pstat Setup is on, a second Setup dialog box with hardware configuration details becomes the active window, allowing you to modify the hardware configuration used during the experiment.
- The script next obtains the use of the potentiostat specified during Setup and opens the data file using the Output File name. If the potentiostat is in use or the file cannot be opened, the script returns you to the Setup dialog box.
- The file header information is written to the data file prior to data-acquisition. If the experiment is aborted, the output file contains only this information. This header information includes: Tags identifying possible analyses, The current time and date, A list of the Setup parameters and hardware configuration
- If Init. Delay is on, then the cell is turned off and the specimen's Eoc is measured for the time specified as the Init. Delay time, or until the potential stabilizes to a value less than the stability setting. A plot of potential versus time is always displayed. The last measured potential is recorded as Eoc. If Init. Delay is off, this step is skipped and Eoc is assumed to be 0.0 V vs. Ref.
- The script conditions the electrode if Conditioning was specified in the Setup. Conditioning is done by applying a fixed potential for a defined time. A plot of current versus time is displayed during the Conditioning.
- Finally the data-acquisition process starts. The potential of the sample is held at the Pre-step Voltage for the Pre-step delay. This information is stored with the data file and is intended to show that the user has selected a voltage where no appreciable current occurs. Charge and current readings at fixed time intervals (Sample Period) are taken during the steps in Controlled Potential Coulometry. If Autoranging was selected in Setup, at each point the current range is automatically switched to the optimal range for the measured cell current. If Positive Feedback IR Compensation has been selected all data are continuously corrected for IR-drop. If Current Interrupt IR Compensation has been selected, each potential is corrected for the measured IR-drop of the preceding point. Plots of Q and I vs. time are displayed during the steps.
- The data are written to the output file and the script cleans up and halts. When the scan is over, the cell is turned off. The acquired data are written to the output file. The script then waits for you to click the Skip button. When you do so, the script closes everything that's open, including the runner window.

Detroit is a happening city right now, thanks in large part to the 2015 edition of the North American International Auto Show. The NAIAS is the granddaddy of all auto shows — at least on this continent — what provides the lion’s share of new releases and concept vehicles for the year ahead.
The buzz leading up to this year’s show has been filled with early-breaking news as usual. Toyota, Buick and Jaguar were among the brands that unveiled new models beforehand, as did Mercedes-Benz, Chevrolet, Infiniti and Volkswagen. Yet, the early show and tells only served to feed the beast as social media, particularly Twitter, lit up with photos and comments on the eve of the first media day.
This writer is not in Detroit and for a very good reason too: a seasonal virus has knocked him down for the count, but not so far down that he isn’t relying on “boots on the ground” to help him out. Next week, he plans to head for Washington, DC, to attend the Washington Auto Show, an auspicious event in its own right.
For right now, the Motor City is the focal point for all things automotive as it should be. Indeed, Detroit is the nerve center for the US auto industry and every manufacturer, foreign and domestic, is paying it homage.
This article covers the first batch of announcements through mid-morning today with the remainder of the day’s releases coming later. We will follow up with more announcements on Tuesday. In the coming two weeks, we’ll dig deeper to reveal certain background details about select models, a postscript of sorts to help ensure that the buzz continues.
Buick Twosome Bedazzle
Auto Trends has been expecting Buick to expand its model line, but we were prepared for just one announcement, not two.
The first one confirmed what we have long suspected: the Opel Cascada will make a transformation and go on sale early next year as the 2016 Buick Cascada. This darling 2+2 coupe brings to Buick the first convertible since the Reatta, a halo model to magnify the brand.
The second announcement substantiated a theory we’ve considered, one that has Buick offering its own model variant based on GM’s Omega platform. That platform will underpin the forthcoming Cadillac CT6, what represents the pinnacle model for GM’s luxury brand. GM has said the platform would support other models, thus Buick will most likely deliver.
On the eve of the NAIAS, Ed Welburn, vice president of General Motors Global Design, presented the Buick Avenir, a premium sports sedan. A concept vehicle, the Avenir (French for the future) points to Buick’s style direction, one that fans will most likely embrace.
Big on luxury and technology, the all-wheel drive Avenir has a long hood, wheels located to the corners, and a sloping rear deck.
Powered by a next-generation direct-injected V-6 engine paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, this nascent concept should become a reality by 2017.
Expect GM to jettison the Avenir moniker and bestow the “Riviera” name on the production model. Sure, it is a sedan, but its 2+2 seating layout and sleek proportions likely won’t have too many people complaining.
Car and Truck of the Year Awards
Kicking off the show as usual were the North American Car and Truck of the Year announcements. As expected, the all-new and aluminum-based Ford F-150 was the winner here, beating out the Chevrolet Colorado and the Lincoln MKC.
Although the Colorado is a strong entrant in the small pickup truck segment, the groundbreaking F-150 won as expected.
Quite a few people expected Ford to win double honors by snagging the Car of the Year award as well with the Mustang. However, the Volkswagen Golf and Golf GTI snagged the most votes, beating out the Mustang and Hyundai Genesis sedan.
Last year, Chevrolet swept the awards with the Corvette Stingray and Silverado winning car and truck of the year recognition.
Nissan Titan Unveiled
Since 2004, the Nissan Titan has served mostly as a placeholder pickup truck for the brand. In the Titan, Nissan gained access to the market, but has woefully underserved its customers by limiting this truck to a singular body style, engine and duty class.
At the NAIAS, Nissan President and CEO Carlos Ghosn unveiled the second generation model, a vehicle that makes great strides over the first generation pickup truck. The new truck will be available in standard, extended (King cab) and crew cab configurations, with three engine choices and both 4×2 and 4×4 layouts.
For the first time, the Titan will offer a gasoline V-6 engine and a Cummins-supplied 5.0-liter turbo-diesel V-8 engine. Nissan says that the 2016 Titan, going on sale later this year, will pull up to 12,000 pounds when properly equipped and carry a payload capacity of up to 2,000 pounds.
Nissan promises that the next generation Titan will come equipped with advanced technologies, including a rear view monitor, an around view monitor, moving object detection and a trailer light check system.

With a lot more houses likely to be built on North Shore’s Whangaparoa Peninsula over the next 10 years one thing is certain – the already huge congestion will get worse, much worse.
Unless, that is, a way can be found to unlock the long discussed Penlink Project – the 7km of road and bridge linking the Peninsula to State Highway 1 at Dairy Flat.
Penlink was proposed 20 years ago when peak time traffic queues at the Silverdale intersection with the main highway were about 500 metres. Starting at 6am most weekdays queues now stretch 5-6 kilometres.
Yet development continues apace in the string of attractive sea-side suburbs along the Peninsula – Gulf Harbour, Stanmore Bay and Red Beach – and Millwater, between the peninsula and the highway. It is transport congestion that diminishes local quality of life!
With the Penlink project not in Auckland Council’s financial timeframe until 2025-35, nothing will happen for another 10 years except more houses will be built, and more cars will make congestion worse. It shouldn’t surprise, then, if the already deeply fatigued and frustrated residents, employers – their staff and customers – lose what level of confidence they may have left that council and its agencies are on their side and are there to help.
Not quite all. The Chamber of Commerce has been approached by concerned transport planners who have backed the business community taking the lead to unlock the project and get it built by 2024 – a date selected on evidence that planning and approval processes for major transport projects typically take seven years. That’s bad enough, but is another story needing sorting!
Meanwhile an option is being developed to test a Design Build Finance (DBF) Penlink project option with the private sector. The business case for the project stacks up, with a benefit cost ratio (BCR) of 2.9, giving it a rating higher than a number of NZTAs ‘Roads of National Significance’ projects. The estimated cost is a modest $290 million, compared to the billions of dollars of recent larger projects, Travel time savings of up to 15 minutes.
Funding options include combining a toll of around $2-3 a trip for users and a targeted transport rate for non-users in nearby suburbs that will benefit from less congestion in getting access to State Highway 1 – Millwater, Wainui and Silverdale West.
Politically, the decades of delay in getting Penlink construction underway and the growth in demand for it by the local community makes it an attractive project.
Mayoral candidates should note that there is no other transport project of scale looming on the North Shore (other than the next Waitemata Harbour Crossing). To date, most investment in road infrastructure has been elsewhere in Auckland – the west and the south. Another attraction for private investors supporting Penlink is that it is consented and virtually ready to go.
Add in the fact that the Whangaparoa Peninsula has significant potential for value add property development. Also, a population the size of Hamilton is projected to be added to the Silverdale area over the next 30 years. In short, the pre-conditions are in place for a farsighted local private sector investor to step up and add Penlink to their portfolio.
Clearly, the traditional approach of relying on council hasn’t worked. If the project is to be speeded up, new thinking and a new approach is required.
Therefore, as with the East West Connection project which sat on Auckland council plans for 40+ years until taken over by NZTA after a business campaign, business is encouraging the private sector and central government to work together to shape a finance package and get the job done quickly.
If Auckland is to be progressive and stay a world top-10 attractive city to live and work, another decade of Penlink delay is unacceptable. We have the aspiration to be a first world city, but our slowness to act and bring innovation to delivering projects like Penlink positions us towards behaving like a third world city – that’s not good enough for the Auckland Chamber of Commerce.

Maccabi GB is to hold a virtual community fun run this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The event, entitled Maccabi GB Community Fun Run @ Home Online, will take place all day on 24 May to raise money for Jewish frontline organisations and carers.
Those taking part in the event can run, walk, hop and even skip a distance of either 1km, 5km or 10 km at home while abiding by the UK’s lockdown rules.
The 2020 fun run – a highlight of the community’s calendar and significant source of income for charities – has been postponed to 27 June next year.
Last year’s event drew a record-breaking 7,500 participants.
“We were really sorry that we weren’t able to hold the actual Maccabi GB community fun run this year,” said Maccabi GB’s chief executive, Martin Berliner.
“We know not only how much fun the day is itself, but with over £2 million raised for Jewish charities since the first community fun run, the event is really important for our community’s fundraising. That is why we are delighted to be bringing this online version to the community to support our frontline services and community organisations,” he added.
Those taking part have been urged to share videos of their training sessions on social media using the hashtag #CFRonline and the social media handle @MGBCFR.
A virtual medal ceremony is to be held on 24 May, featuring downloadable running numbers.
Jewish Care is among those throwing their weight behind the online fun run.
Daniel Carmel-Brown, chief executive of the charity, said: “It’s wonderful that the community can still come together for an event that we have all come to know and love, and we hope that it will see lots of enthusiastic participants raise funds for the community’s frontline carers and other essential charities. We look forward to seeing as many people as possible joining in.”

The mysterious bounty hunter from Mandalor — played by “Game of Thrones” actor Pedro Pascal — was introduced for the first time in a trailer released Friday. He makes his official debut in the first episode of “The Mandalorian,” which is set to premiere Nov. 12 with the launch of the Disney+ streaming service.
The mysterious Mandalorian (in armor that looks like Boba Fett’s) prowls the outer reaches of the galaxy in the time between the downfall of the Empire in the “Return of the Jedi” and “The Force Awakens.”
“Bounty hunting is a complicated profession. Don’t you agree?” Herzog’s villain asks ominously in the trailer. (Herzog told Vanity Fair earlier this year he was picked for the role because “they needed somebody who would spread terror and be frightening for the audience.”)
The series, created by Jon Favreau, mixes bleak high-tech scenes with the shoot-’em-ups and lone gunman bravado of an American Western.
Favreau compared the show to old Samurai movies or Westerns as the series was announced at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California.
“I pitched [Lucasfilm chief] Kathleen Kennedy on a show that takes place after the Empire has fallen, and everybody is celebrating,” he said. “Except there’s no central government, so everything falls into chaos.”
“The Mandalorian” cast will also include Gina Carano of “Deadpool” as Cara Dune and Carl Weathers of “Predator” as Greef Carga, as well as Nick Nolte, Giancarlo Esposito, Emily Swallow, Omid Abtahi and Ming-Na Wen.
Disney+ will have access to all the franchise’s movies, including the upcoming “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.”
Ewan McGregor turned up on stage at the D23 event to announce he’s reprising his Obi-Wan Kenobi role in another project for Disney+. And a series in the works starring Diego Luna as the character he played in “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”

A 192-unit apartment building in Chicago’s suburbs sold for $32.25 million, adding to investors’ expectations that the region’s multifamily housing market will continue to flourish during the pandemic.
Multifamily investment and operating company Orion Residential bought the complex at 951 Charlela Lane in Elk Grove, 23 miles northwest of Chicago, from Burton LLC, Cook County property records show. Orion is funding the purchase with a $22.8 million loan from Voya Investment Management.
The building’s website markets the apartments as “livable luxury.” One- and two-bedroom units ranging from 573 to 1,035 square feet start at $965 and go up to $1,400. Located on the west side of Elk Grove Village, the complex is 20 minutes from O’Hare International Airport and within two miles of major grocery stores including Aldi and Walgreens.
Owners of multifamily properties are seeking to capitalize on higher rents and increased occupancy in suburban Chicago after the pandemic. Occupancy rates for suburban apartments were at a five-year high of 97 percent in the second quarter of last year, a rise from 95 percent from the previous year, according to Integra Realty Resources.
The priciest multifamily property sale in the suburbs came in October. Albion Residential bought the 719-unit apartment complex in Palatine for $107.8 million last September. The highest price for a multifamily asset paid in 2021 was $175 million. FPA Multifamily paid that amount for its acquisition of McClurg Court at 333 Ontario Street in downtown Chicago.
Major multifamily suburban transactions in 2020 include a $104 million sale of a 321-unit Glenmuir apartment building in Naperville and $85.6 million deal of a 267-unit apartment complex in Des Plaines.
Orion Residential did not respond to requests for comment.

Kb homes and backdating
Karatz, Ray and another KB Home executive were forced out in 2006 after the homebuilder discovered stock options had been favorably dated between 19.The probe found that no other senior executives had a role in the backdating scheme., KB Home CEO Jeffrey Mezger confronted his neighbors Griffin and partner Randy Bick on Saturday after the couple reportedly filed a complaint about noise coming from Mezger’s Bel Air property.Mezger’s expletive-filled tirade, in which he referred to Griffin as a “fucking bald dyke” and a “fucking cunt,” was picked up on security cameras at Griffin and Bick’s residence. (Griffin had recently shaved her head in solidarity with her sister, who was receiving chemotherapy treatment and who died on Thursday.) “Let’s declare war,” Mezger is heard saying, “’cause we got a lot to go for.Earlier, a lawsuit filed against the same parties alleged they fraudulently inflated sales prices of KB homes in Arizona and Nevada.Pw C accused of sharing confidential information [economia] Watchstone has accused Pw C of “inducing breach of contract” and “unlawful means conspiracy” against the Big Four firm.Prosecutors had asked for a term of at least six years in prison.
Otherwise, it can allow companies to overstate profits and underpay taxes.
As the recording made the rounds on Tuesday, it prompted backlash against the chief executive. Griffin eventually apologized for the photo, acknowledging that it was out of bounds, but she told an Australian TV show in August that she was no longer sorry.
Personal finance guru Suze Orman, for one, called out Mezger’s “disgraceful talk.” I can't believe this! “I don’t apologize for that photo anymore,” she said.
A stock option allows an employee to purchase a company’s stock at a preset price at a future date.
Karatz retroactively tied the exercise price of his options to dates when the stock was selling for a low price, which increased his profit when he sold the shares.
