FOR HIRE! – BANGALORE RICKSHAW...

Green, yellow, black. They are the blood in the veins of Bangalore: the 450.000 rickshaws and their drivers. Knocked together from bits and pieces, decorated, ready for the junk heap or carefully maintained like antique cars, the vehicles are as charismatic as their owners, who brave the monstrous traffic of this metropolis daringly, sleepy, chattering or stoic, making sure the passanger's trip from A to B will be full of memorable experiences.

Based on days of riding around in rickshaws and drawings made locally, this animation captures the tough workaday life of a rickshaw driver, seen through the eyes of a European visitor.

Z-Day Update #3...

Miami police officers are being warned to proceed with caution "when dealing with the homeless population" following a second drug-fueled "zombie" attack in as many weeks.

On May 26th, 31-year-old Rudy Eugene was shot and killed by a Miami PD officer while he was gnawing on 65-year-old Ronald Poppo's face. A designer drug known as "bath salts" has been linked to the attack, though no conclusive evidence of its involvement has yet to be presented.

Last Saturday, 21-year-old homeless man Brandon De Leon was arrested while high on bath salts after he entered a restaurant and began hurling obscenities at patrons. He growled at his arresting officers and threatened to eat them.

Police say De Leon was using a strain of bath salts known as "Cloud Nine," which they say can be purchased over the counter despite being "addictive and dangerous."  It's worth noting that De Leon had also consumed an entire bottle of rum and a can of Four Loko prior to the attack, and also tested positive for marijuana and Xanax.

In the aftermath of Eugene's attack, his girlfriend told the press she believed he was "drugged unknowingly," and offered up the possibility of a voodoo curse.

As police in the South brace for additional "zombie attacks," a second Northeastern flesh-eating assault was recorded Tuesday afternoon.

Police in New Haven arrested 38-year-old Lowpel Davis after she stole a wig from a store and bolted. According to the report, when Davis spotted the store owner and his father chasing her, she turned around and bit off a piece of the owner's bicep, then spit it in his face.

Though it is unknown if drugs were involved, police did note that Davis looked "crazed."

Giant Squid Attacked By Shark...

Last Friday, fishing columnist Al McGlashan of Australia's Daily Telegraph discovered the carcass of a giant squid floating off the coast of Australia. Discoveries like this are uncommon in and of themselves, but two things about this particular find made it especially rare.

One: this squid was fresh. Judging from its vibrant color (squid carcasses are often rotten and off-white in hue by the time anybody finds them) and missing tentacles, McGlashen speculates it had recently come out on the losing side of a battle with a sperm whale, the massive invertebrates' only known predator.

Two: it was being devoured in massive chunks by a blue shark.

Watch the footage of the encounter up top.

The Zombie Apocalypse (Z-Day)...

By now we've all seen the awful, awful story about the Florida man who was shot to death by police for refusing to stop chewing on another man's face.

We joked around about it being the canary in the mine shaft of an impending zombie apocalypse. This latest incident is not so much a warning shot as it is another in a disconcertingly intensifying stream of zombie-invoking headlines — all from the past two weeks, and all from the Sunshine State.

It all started on 5/16 with an ominous story about a "mysterious rash" at McArthur High School in Hollywood that launched a HazMat investigation. Twleve students and two teachers were treated and released. The source of the rash remains unknown.

Flashfoward two days: HazMat crews were called in to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport to determine the source of an "unknown chemical" that sent five people to the hospital. Theories abound, but an exact cause was not confirmed.

On 5/20, the first real sign of trouble: 41-year-old Dr. Zachary Bird, was arrested by the Florida Highway Patrol near Orlando and charged with felony battery charges for spitting blood in a patrolman's face. He was also "extremely agitated and enraged," and repeatedly banged his head on the patrol car's plexiglass partition "until he bled."

A few days later, another mystery rash was reported at yet another Broward County school. A HazMat team was once again called in to investigate, and once again left without any concrete answers.

The following day, a "disoriented" Canadian man was arrested aboard an American Airlines plane after he inexpicably attempted to rush the cockpit. The plane had just landed in Miami.

On Saturday, an unidentified homeless man had some 80% of his face bitten off by 31-year-old Rudy Eugene.

And here's the bad news: Whatever's happening in Florida appears to be spreading. The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign tweeted the following the following warning to its students last night: "Hazardous materials released at Institute for Genomic Biology. Escape area if safe to do so. Otherwise seek shelter."

And in Hackensack, New Jersey, a man was rushed to the hospital after he reportedly cut out his own intestines and threw them at police officers.

Pharmasaurus Rx...

I've been observing several contradictions that we face in our society and the "War on Drugs" has always been one of the most blatantly exploited mantras that often brings me to disgust. In school, they told me to 'Say No to Drugs' and yet our establishment and media pushes all types of wonderful drugs for just about everything. America is the largest consumer of pharmaceutical drugs in the world and that makes me wonder how much our foreign policy is about maintaining our "fix," rather than spreading democracy and good will. I hope the painting makes the viewer consider what really lies behind the reasons for all these military entanglements.

Attention Supervillains...

The Royal Norwegian Navy has put up a secret, mountainside submarine base for sale... and judging by what it looks like, it would work both as a superhero hideout and as a supervillain lair.

The full above-ground space measures 13,500 square meters, including the opening at the side of the mountain. It's the 25,000-square meter space within the mountain that makes it oh-so-interesting, though. While you'll find mundane rooms like ordinary offices inside the property, it also has a dry dock for submarines and boats as well as a tunnel system, because no hideout or lair is ever complete without them.

Rising From The Depths...

A tourist in Argentina captured the incredible moment the bottom of an iceberg emerges from the ocean as it flips over.  The phenomenon is not uncommon for icebergs, but is rarely seen on video. Icebergs flip because they become unbalanced after melting and changing shape.
