Since you're online, take a minute to observe Breast Cancer Awareness Month and join the fight to end this disease. Just go to the Ford Warriors in Pink Facebook page and click the "Like" button. Ford will donate $1 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure for every Like they get this month, up to $100,000. Don't be discouraged by the number of likes already on that page; Ford started the month with more than 44,000 fans, so there's still a long way to go to hit the goal.

There are a few furniture and clothing items that just couldn't fit into five minutes this week. For female avatars, there's the Club Chic outfit, which is a complete avatar that cannot be modified. At 99 cents, it's a reasonable buy, and rumor has it that this avatar moves a little differently than the standard female avatar. If anyone can confirm this, please do.

There's also a lot more furniture available for the Lake House, including some cool abstract lamps, .99 for the floor model and .49 for the table model, and the stack of dice for .49 cents, which will add an extra casino kick to that Brimstone Poker room you've been building.

If you still need the Move controller avatar, want to buy the animated version or just haven't finished the game yet, meet me in the Move space tonight, September 25, between 8PM and 11PM Eastern Time. You won't find this space on the navigator, so if you'd like to come by, send a friend request to HearItWow from your Home PDA. I won't be able to send invites while the game is playing, so please be patient, and I'll get you in just as soon as I can.

Please note that my voice is absolute junk this week thanks to a fun late-summer cold, so the audio is a little more processed than usual.

One item that didn't make this week's HomeCast is the free Veemee Pool Coffee Table, which you will receive if you own or visit the London Pub. This is a smaller version of the Red Pool Table with a glass top, and it's very nice looking. It's also a portal to the store that lets you buy the full-size pool tables, so it will count against your Active Item limit. While I love the way this looks, it would be great to have a non-active version of it so that we can have the looks without losing a spot for an actual pool table.
