When Animals Wish They Could Attack of the Day: 3-year-old Sofia Walker comes face to resin-bonded glass to face with Malik the lion at New Zealand’s Wellington Zoo.
Carnivore manager Paul Horton said Mailk has been known to get “a little bit stroppy,” which I imagine is Kiwi talk for “majorly pissed off that he has to spend his entire life trapped in a cage being mocked by little girls.”
Cute!

Would-be entrepreneurs who want to have a better work-life balance are in for a rude awakening. For at least the first few years, you may be on the job at all hours. If a customer has a problem in the middle of the night, you are the one who’s getting up to address it. And if the company goes under, you are solely accountable for that failure, sacrificing your financial livelihood in the process.
These days, the traditional business world gets a bad rap. But there are some highly valuable aspects of regular jobs that we don’t think about until they are gone. These are the three P’s: peace, prestige and perks.

If you think working for yourself makes up for these negatives, then you’re a candidate to run your own business. If not, you may be better off in Corporate America.

The Euthanasia Coaster is a concept for a steel roller coaster designed to kill its passengers. In 2010, it was designed and made into a scale model by Julijonas Urbonas, a PhD candidate at the Royal College of Art in London. Urbonas, who has worked at an amusement park, stated that the goal of his concept roller coaster is to take lives “with elegance and euphoria”. It is a ride to the death. The seven loops or ‘inversions’ put the human body under such stress that it causes the brain to be starved of oxygen, as the heart simply cannot push blood against the enormous g-forces. Even if it kills you, it is designed to still be a fun death. An honourable thought, if rather macabre.
