* Mike finds a lost puppy.

“They look like your worst nightmare, tattooed hell-raisers prowling the streets just looking for trouble - but that’s OK, because they’re actually tender-hearted animal detectives and ruffling a few feathers is how they recover kidnapped and abused pets. With their noses to the ground, members of Rescue Ink, a nonprofit group based on Long Island, will stop at nothing within the bounds of the law to protect animals.”
One member, retired NYPD Detective Angel Nieves, 46, applies the gumshoe skills he learned on the force to make street toughs cough up leads when he is tracking a missing or swiped dog.
“I think the investigative part of me will never leave me,” he said. “I’ve been doing cases for 15 years, and every time there’s a result and I see the expressions on their faces, it makes me feel happy.”

* The New York Times magazine has a huge story about how young gay couples are getting married. Oh to be young with so many choices!
“For many young gay men today, settling down in a relationship in their 20s — or getting married if they live in Massachusetts — will feel like a very natural thing to do,” says Joe Kort, a psychotherapist and the author “10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do to Improve Their Lives.”

Center stage at the Manhattan auction house is an 1824 painting, “Neptune,” by British artist Sir Edwin Henry Landseer, expected to bring between $800,000 and $ 1.2 million. Landseer was one of the most famous animal portraitists of his time.

Dog buffs know that the type of black-and-white dog in this painting takes its name from the artist, who made them a favorite subject: Landseers are actually a color variant of the Newfoundland, which most people think of as being all black. And the setting is no coincidence: Whatever its color, this breed was — and still is — famous for its daring rescues at sea.

Fittingly, the painting’s frame is made from the beams of the warship Téméraire, which saw action in the Battle of Trafalgar
