For world water day Ogilvy & Mather, Mumbai decided to go the educational route and actually tech us how to make your urine drinkable water in this poster, which looks a lot like old school posters in its Art Direction/ Illustration style.
It's pretty simply actually, all you need is a hole in the ground, a bucket, some tarp and rocks, the sun itself and then of course, your pee. In fact I hear that the �bertough French foreign league men and Chilean army soldiers do this all the time. So next time you're at a loss for water, here you go.

This week in the magazine, Nick Paumgarten writes about the lives of elevators, and tells the story of Nicholas White, who was trapped in an elevator in New York City’s McGraw-Hill building for forty-one hours. Here is a condensed look at White’s ordeal, as captured by the building’s security cameras.
The video is interesting. Looks like he managed to hold it in all that time.
Roadkill is a new designer toy boutique, creating original toy characters.
We make toys with a twist. Toys as dark as the inside of a heifer. And they all have one thing in common. They’ve been run over. We’re calling it Squash-Plush.
Our macabre range of collectibles started with Twitch the Raccoon. But now there’s a new not-so-cuddly toy in town. His name is Grind. Like his buddy Twitch, he’s a teddy that’s been squished flat. His blood and guts are made of squidgy plush material. He comes in a made-to-measure body-bag. He also has an identity tag. And for the first 1000 Grind characters we’re doing limited edition tags. If you like roadkill, then you’ve come to the right place.
