Vice Versus - Zentai
Zentai is a Japanese term for skin-tight suits worn to cover the whole body. Thought to be either a contraction of zenshin taitsu, "full-body tights," or derive directly from the term for "full body," Zentai is a lifestyle choice for people interested in transforming from their natural identity into a colorful, faceless form.

Vice Versus - Cavemen
The New York tribe of Paleo dieters was founded in July of 2009, and has since grown to more than 300 members. The group believes in living according to ancient human principles. This means they avoid any food or drink created after the advent of agriculture. They prefer scaling boulders and running barefoot for exercise instead of running on a treadmill in some state-of-the-art gym, they seek out the sun to ensure they get plenty of vitamin D and, yes, they eat a lot of meat. The group's structure mimics the lifestyle they've chosen. Though John may be the "tribal chieftain", any member of the group may take the lead at any time to guide it to the next meat-centric barbecue, icy swim in the ocean, or a simple caveman cooking class. Members have found that many are like-minded politically, favoring an anarchist and libertarian view of the world.

Astoria Scum River Bridge
Astoria Scum River Bridge is an unauthorized city improvement by Jason Eppink and Posterchild: http://jasoneppink.com/astoria-scum-river-bridge http://bladediary.com/tag/astoria-scum-river-bridge For more than twenty years, a leaky pipe on 33rd Street beneath the Hell Gate Bridge viaduct approach submerged more than a hundred square feet of heavily-trafficked sidewalk under a festering cesspool of standing water. Astoria Scum River, as it was called, stretched the entire width of the sidewalk, and as winter approached, the river iced over and became particularly hazardous to cross. Astoria Scum River Bridge was constructed to offer Astorians an opportunity to safely cross this hazard. The unauthorized bridge was a gift to the pedestrians of Astoria in the absence of successful municipal efforts to ameliorate the problem. The bridge was made at zero cost entirely from recycled materials: an old work bench found on the curb, rescued screws from a disassembled desk, and a metal plate from an expired electrical component. It was installed and dedicated on December 30th, 2009. On January 25th, 2010, Astoria Scum River Bridge was the subject of a commendation from the office of NYC Council Member Peter F. Vallone, Jr., accompanied by a pledge to work with Amtrak to re-route Astoria Scum River off the sidewalk. Two days later, Amtrak workers began construction work. Astoria Scum River was quickly routed off the sidewalk, and within a couple months, custom-made grates were installed to complete the project. The bridge, no longer needed, was de-installed on March 20th, 2010 and returned to the curb whence it came.
