Bo loves the snow! Isn't that just so interesting? I mean, this story works on so many levels. Level one: rhymes. Level two: contains dog. Keep up the good work, NBC!

Snow News Day
Up until today, I was pretty unimpressed by the recent Northeastern snowstorms and frankly getting a little bored by all the snow-related news. NBC Washington's "Around Town" desk has made me come around, however.

And meow back to John in the newsroom
Check out this weatherguy! After enduring decades of cat-free weather reporting, he decided to end the oppression:
I like how he not only picks the cat up, but also nuzzles him quite overtly. Me-ow is right. You go, weatherguy!
Thx CuteOverload; you're the bestest. Heart!

Brrrr it's cold out here...
...there must be a network of pipes containing coolant in the at-mos-phere!
Hmmmm, okay that one was a stretch. But seriously, you could be saying this exact phrase in the future if you find yourself massively wealthy and staying at the new Palazzo Versace in Dubai.
Versace, the renowned fashion house, is to create the world’s first refrigerated beach so that hotel guests can walk comfortably across the sand on scorching days.
The beach will be next to the the new Palazzo Versace hotel which is being built in Dubai where summer temperatures average 40C and can reach 50C.
The beach will have a network of pipes beneath the sand containing a coolant that will absorb heat from the surface.
The swimming pool will be refrigerated and there are also proposals to install giant blowers to waft a gentle breeze over the beach.
FINALLY rich people can control the weather directly, rather than just spritzing themselves with Evian from an aerosol can and relying on the unreliable cooling effects of evaporation. Although I have to admit this new revolution seems a bit poorly timed, what with the recent increase in focus on environmentalism and the recent decline in numbers of rich people (Madoff, I'm looking at you). Oh well, F it, pass me the tanning oil and a sweater, I'm off to the UAE! Thanks, Times Online!

Save Venice
Venice is totally fucked. Sorry, guys, but look at it:
That is the Piazza San Marco, a tourist- and pigeon-favorite, covered in knee-high (disgusting) seawater. The tide peaked at 61 inches (over 5 feet!), the fourth highest on record. They couldn't even put out those little walkways because the water was so high they would have floated away. Well, Venetians, you better start praying that all this global warming is followed by another Ice Age. Free skating, woooo!!!
