ANIMAL, it says. That’s the best part. Hello — yes, this is ANIMAL. This picture is part of a collection via Xinhua called “Beauty pageant of dogs.” (There’s something Xinhua isn’t telling us, I’m sure.) Animal has absolutely no fashion sense, but what about this one here…
You don’t want to go out this way. Recently, a man on a scooter in Yuhuan, Zhejiang province died when a truck carrying 10 tons of boiling tar tipped over and deposited its contents on him. “‘The bitumen poured out all over the man on the bike.

(We’re not sure when Chinese cops began carrying firearms, but perhaps this... Read more »
There’s a newscast after the jump that reveals a lot of interesting details on Zhou Kehua’s final days, some of which I’ll curate here. (It also features a silly animation of the police shootout on Tuesday that killed him, which I won’t comment on.) China Daily has whipped up a good story as well, noting that... Read more »
