Dog gets second chance at life after hit by car
WELM, Wash. -- A dog got a second chance at life in what one Washington state family called a holiday miracle.

Protect Our Health: Stop Mercury and Other Toxics | |

Mercury is poison and it's likely in you or your loved ones.
But we can end the cycle of pollution right now by telling President Obama you support their strong Air Toxics Standard. The President is considering this standard now -- let him know you support protecting our families from mercury!

The Great Outdoors
Sometimes we just need to take a break and look at the forest through the trees.
Many of us go through the rush called life and don't get the opportunity to see what is around us.
Enjoying life is about the Journey not the Destination.
Grab your backpack and your camera and explore, there is a lot to see.

Capture as many moments as you can through the lens, so you can share those experiences with others so they too can awaken to the life beyond four wheels and yellow lines.
