The Big E – Endorphins Make You Happy
The whole subject of endorphins came into my purview when I began reading a fashion-related article online from the thestreet.com. By now, you all are well-acquainted with the fact that I keep my “eye on fashion” at all times. The headline of the feature read, “Popular clothing retailer shuts down unexpectedly,” written by Daniel Kline for The Street on March 16, 2024. He explains some companies who start as digital businesses (DTC: directly to consumers) also start selling in brick and mortar retail stores, too. The concept is sales made in the store, where the consumer can actually see and touch the merchandise, will result in future online orders from return buyers. The problem with that, according to Mr. Kline, is eventually, operational costs of the physical stores begin affecting profitability. When the pendulum swings in that direction, the cost of maintaining storefronts is a losing one.

#TriviaTuesday – Can You Guess This Dog Breed?

My classically houndy […]

Expression: It’s All About The Ears
The basic size and shape of the dog’s ear was, obviously, inherited from its wild ancestors. Nature designed and developed the dog’s ears for hearing and their sense of hearing is about four times more acute than humans. Their ears can move independently and that makes it easier for dogs to pick up sounds and determine the direction from which sounds come.

The Unsung Heroes Of FEMA
The wildfires that devastated Maui last August provided incredibly graphic documentation of an unfolding catastrophe. And dogs were front and center of the story–on both sides of the equation. Heartbreaking images of residents fleeing their homes clutching pets reinforced the notion of “most prized possession.” Frequently, the speed and ferocity of the blaze permitted no time to think or plan as they escaped the encroaching deathtrap. Those heartbreaking scenes were rivaled by the pleas of desperate owners hoping to find their missing animals.
