On Tuesday members of the North Babylon Fire Company responded to the Claremont Avenue home at 1:27 p.m. after a report of smoke coming from the house. No residents were home at the time so firefighters forced entry into the home to find high heat and smoke conditions. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire and removed two pets from the home and transported them to a local animal hospi

A pet portrait by Carly Beck (Courtesy) Heading to the Hamptons this weekend? Then you’d best pop by Amagansett Square on Saturday to check out the pet portraiture of Carly Beck. The fashionable artist, who accrues an awful lot of likes on Instagram for her detailed interpretations of personality-filled animals wearing the latest fashion collections, is coming to the Hamptons thanks to Mandala Yoga’s Yummy Yoga Goods boutique. She will have several works for sale, and she will also be taking new commissions for custom portraits. Naturally, we had a few questions. Carly, you have a background in fashion as a sales executive and handbag designer. You turned your attentions to painting relatively recently. What initially got you interested in pet portraiture?

And people know their dogs well enough.” It was the first time the city let dogs in a local pool, and officials joked it also took some arm-twisting to get in gear. Although some lifeguards and pool staff were in the water,

One example of this features the friendly clownfish Nemo and his side-kick Dory, a blue tang fish, who you may know from the animated blockbusters Finding Nemo and Finding Dory. Everyone loves Nemo. But to some, his rise to global stardom in 2003 had a darker side, as news outlets around the world reported that the popularity of the movie was leading an increasing number of people to buy clownfish as pets. These articles claimed that this increase in demand was a threat to wild populations . While there was little to no evidence to support this story, with so much repetition, the so-called Nemo Effect became conventional wisdom. So it wasn’t surprising that before its sequel, Finding Dory, was released in 2016, a chorus of voices, including Ellen DeGeneres wh
