JUST IN: Dallas Animal Services Is Suspending Intake Of Dogs Due To Kennel Cough

Mar 14, 2025 3:34 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Not a great way to end the week for Dallas Animal Services. It seems that the facility has been hit with Canine Infectious Respiratory Disease (CIRD) aka Kennel Cough. The staff is trying their best to “understand the underlying cause to ensure we provide the proper cleaning and medical protocols at our location to reduce its effect on our population. We are waiting for lab … [Read more...] about JUST IN: Dallas Animal Services Is Suspending Intake Of Dogs Due To Kennel Cough

Perhaps Neiman Marcus Flagship Will Rise Like A Phoenix After Suffering A Fire Of Controversy

Feb 28, 2025 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

In recent days the 117-year-old Neiman Marcus Downtown store has been caught in a whirlpool, like contentious divorcing parents deciding how to proceed. NM’s newest “spouse,” Saks Global, had drawn the line that it would no longer be responsible for the brand's flagship due to a breakdown in negotiations with a lessor over a 25' by 100’ underground lease. The result was … [Read more...] about Perhaps Neiman Marcus Flagship Will Rise Like A Phoenix After Suffering A Fire Of Controversy

Mommies In Need’s “Annie’s Place” Closure Surprised Some, But Not Others

Jan 27, 2025 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Natalie Boyle knew all too well about the challenges of having young children while dealing with health issues. As she recalled in 2018, “I was a stay-at-home mom to twin toddlers when I went through a series of health problems including five major surgeries and a cancer diagnosis. As I recovered, a friend was diagnosed with colon cancer and didn’t have help with her kids. I … [Read more...] about Mommies In Need’s “Annie’s Place” Closure Surprised Some, But Not Others

The Passings Of 2024 North Texas Inspirations

Dec 31, 2024 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

This past holiday period has been a poignant one for those left behind. An empty place at the dinner table. A "Just checking on you" phone call that wasn't made. An annual family photo with one person missing. This sorrowful end-of-year post provides a reflection of the people who left their imprint on family, friends and total strangers. Some had come from far-away places … [Read more...] about The Passings Of 2024 North Texas Inspirations

We Regret: Fundraiser’s Anatole Guests Paid Dearly With Time And $$ For “Complimentary Self-Parking”

Oct 4, 2024 11:20 PM by Jeanne Prejean

There's a reason why dessert is served at the end of a meal. Or, why a mint is placed on the pillow before going to sleep. It's to finish off the moment on a sweet note. Alas, such was not the case at a non-profit's otherwise stellar fundraising luncheon at the Hilton Anatole today. As the event finished up just a minute or two past one, guests headed to their cars. Some … [Read more...] about We Regret: Fundraiser’s Anatole Guests Paid Dearly With Time And $$ For “Complimentary Self-Parking”

MySweetOpportunity Series Is Done But The MySweetWishList Series Plans Are Early Bird Announced

Aug 30, 2024 3:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

The MySweetCharity team is in recovery mode since the MySweetOpportunity series submissions have been as overwhelming as ticket requests for a Taylor Swift free-for-all concert. (Seriously, there’s no such concert.) But back to the land of reality. Regretfully, we weren’t able to accommodate all the opps submitted in recent days. As a result, the MySweetCharity team is … [Read more...] about MySweetOpportunity Series Is Done But The MySweetWishList Series Plans Are Early Bird Announced

Oops Alert!: Business Council For The Arts’ Cheers To Change Open House At “Stacks” Missed Its Post Date

Aug 26, 2024 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Mea Culpa: This post was supposed to be published on Thursday, August 15, at 5:30 p.m. But the internet gremlins hijacked the post. Drat! Our apologies to the DFW business- and art-loving community. The Business Council for the Arts (BCA) "Cheers To Change" open house showing off its new digs had all the elements of guests no-showing on the night of Thursday, May 30. In … [Read more...] about Oops Alert!: Business Council For The Arts’ Cheers To Change Open House At “Stacks” Missed Its Post Date

May 29, 2024 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

After little Valley View in Cooke County got slammed this past Saturday, residents throughout North Texas’ major communities were sent scrambling for cover before dawn Tuesday. By the time folks emerged to see the aftermath, they discovered roads covered with debris, flooded streets, age-old trees toppled, houses damaged and downed power lines resulting in 600,000 without … [Read more...] about North Texans Wake Up To 2024 Post-Memorial Day Ravaging Winds, Flooding And Lights Out For 600K

JUST IN: Despite Denials, DSO President/CEO Kim Noltemy Is Leaving North Texas To Head Up L.A. Philharmonic

May 2, 2024 11:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

It was at the recent Mad Hatter's Lunch on Thursday, April 11, that Dallas Symphony Orchestra President/CEO Kim Noltemy was asked whether she was staying in Dallas. No, there had been no rumors about her heading elsewhere, but it seemed only logical. After all, having established a remarkable reputation for heading up the DSO since her arrival in 2018, it seemed natural that … [Read more...] about JUST IN: Despite Denials, DSO President/CEO Kim Noltemy Is Leaving North Texas To Head Up L.A.

MSC Calendar Is Back In Dating Mode After Something Called DMARC Tripped Up Submissions

Feb 13, 2024 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Here’s the situation: MySweetCharity was concerned that the 2024 spring fundraising season was looking rather slack. It really hit home when died-in-the-wool events weren’t appearing on the MSC Calendar. In reaching out to some of the Calendar listing vets to say their events were MIA, they swore they had provided the info. Seriously, they were way too professional and … [Read more...] about MSC Calendar Is Back In Dating Mode After Something Called DMARC Tripped Up Submissions
