Hundreds of specially trained dogs form Italy’s corps of canine lifeguards and are deployed each summer to help swimmers. Unlike their human counterparts, these lifedogs can easily jump from helicopters and speeding boats to reach swimmers in need of a rescue.

Can we agree rescue dogs are the coolest animals?


Like we needed to be reminded why dogs rule and cats signify everything that is wrong with the Internet and LIFE.


If this is real, why hasn’t anyone made it into a movie?

The problem is that historically we haven’t told you how much you have to pay for a given seat until very late in the buying process. And our data tells us this angers many of you to the point that you abandon your purchase once you see the total cost … Going forward, just like almost every other business in the world, we’ll tell you up front how much you can expect to pay for a certain ticket.
Ticketmaster, The Blog (via @maura). This is actually kind of insightful and tricky. Instead of cutting the infuriating convenience fees, they just cut the infuriation.

I’ve been going to that Vincent Moon series at Northwest Film Forum over the weekend. He showed this movie both during Saturday’s “workshop” and tonight’s “clip show”. It, like a lot of his latest travel films is really next level. I could watch this stuff forever. [fiumenights]

Last night we showed up at the Center for Wooden boats with freshly-purchased picnic supplies to meet a refurbished fishing trawler. It coasted around Lake Union for a couple of hours while musicians played on deck and we passed around bottles of wine. When the rain became too much for the fancy instruments, the orchestra leader sang the role of Olive Oyl to close their set, the ship returned to port, and the show continued below deck. Pure magic.
