Some cats have drowned. There are cats that love to play at water - many people will leave a little drip going in their sink, and cats can play for hours in the dripping water. So, what happens is they go to play in it, and the sides of the toilet bowl, needless to say, are very slippery. If the seat is down, but the lid is up, there is really no way for cats to get out. There's nothing to get a grip on, not even the edge of the toilet because the seat is over it. Keeping...

...Benazir Bhutto's return to Pakistan after eight years in exile, the streets of Karachi are plastered with posters welcoming the two-time former Prime Minister back home.

When the six band members of the Histrionics don their Jackson Pollock-inspired "drip" suits for a performance at Melbourne's Australian Centre for the Moving Image this week, there's sure to be an art student or two in the house. And they'll feel quite at home as these self-proclaimed kings of "Concept-Art-Heritage-Rock-Covers" move swiftly through their set. With their razor-witted reinterpretations, AC/DC's '70s classic T.N.T. becomes Nam June Paik, named after the grandfather of video art; Devo's Whip It barely misses a beat as an anthem to Abstract Expressionism...

...truly not enlightened at all, is almost unreadable. “He’s kind of quiet, but really sweet,” she says of a co-worker. “Has this cute mark on his forehead from praying so much.” Her words drip with this oblivious (and agonizing to read) condescension. Gretchen is almost comical in her one-dimensionality. All she wants is power and sex.
