Actually not a fan of Rudy, sometimes I don’t even notice him. But this drawing is pretty awesome.

In a simple experiment, researchers at the University of Chicago sought to find out whether a rat would release a fellow rat from an unpleasantly restrictive cage if it could. The answer was yes.
The free rat, occasionally hearing distress calls from its compatriot, learned to open the cage and did so with greater efficiency over time. It would release the other animal even if there wasn’t the payoff of a reunion with it. Astonishingly, if given access to a small hoard of chocolate chips, the free rat would usually save at least one treat for the captive — which is a lot to expect of a rat.
The researchers came to the unavoidable conclusion that what they were seeing was empathy.

By Brooks Shane Salzwedel, carefully layered mixed media and drawing to make these really unique landscapes. It adds so much depth to each piece just by having several layers of images built up on one another.

Attention fellow History/Game Enthusiasts
You should truly investigate the following game reminiscent of a cross between All Quiet on the Western Front and Silent Hill.  It’s free and available on Windows/Mac through the following link: (via 1916 :: Der Unbekannte Krieg)
For the foreseeable future, I’ll be playing this while buried beneath numerous blankets, Pickelhaube equipped, seeking refuge from the rain.
