British national Livingstone Fagan was one of the Branch Davidians who wound up in jail after the Waco siege that occurred in February 1993. We caught up with him to find out what happened in Texas, as well as his thoughts on David Koresh. He's the guy in the glasses up there, in case you aren't into things like the news. Read more

DAMN, YOUR NAILS LOOK GOOD

Fingernails are hard, horn-like dead skin cells protruding from the squishy softness of your digits. It's weird that people paint and decorate them. Does that mean we should we airbrush and bedazzle corpses too? No, but that could be next and if so, Molly Surno would probably do an art show about that too. Read more

DO NOT TOUCH THE SOURCE OF THE DERIVATIVE

An exercise in obsession as much as art, the first-ever exhibit at Et D�rive makes me a little mad because I can't touch it. It's called "In Praise of Costume: The Garment as Sculpture," and if there are two arty things I want to fondle it is clothes and man-made objects. Read more

A TRADITIONAL ICELANDIC BURGER WAKE

It's a sad week for children and fat people of Iceland because McDonalds have dumped them, hamburgling happiness from the nation by removing all of its branches from the land of Bjork. It's just the latest humiliation for the credit-crunched country and just another thing for Alison, our half-Icelandic VBS UK producer, to feel ashamed about. I took her out for four McDonald's meals to commiserate her and watched her eat them through her tears. Read more

THE TOWN GROWING ON CHEMICAL WEAPONS

Dzerzhinsk is 400 kilometers east of Moscow. The average life expectancy in the city is about 40. Environmentalists aren't sure whether this has more to do with huge, poorly regulated industrial plants dumping waste in the ground, water, and air, or because the town was the former epicenter of the Soviet chemical weapons industry.

STEROIDS DON'T MAKE YOU STAB-PROOF

Anabolic steroids will make you big, ravage your liver, shrink your balls, and, god forbid, help you grow a magnificent set of bitch tits. They won't, however, make you stab proof. My buddy Julian learned this the hard way. Read more

WHAT DUTCH CHILDREN BOUGHT IN SECRET

A while ago I heard a dirty rumor about Break Out!, the most popular Dutch teen magazine from the 90s with lots of nudity. Legions of Dutch teenagers furiously masturbated to it. Recently someone told me that the notorious spread "Love and Sex," which contained a couple posing nude and talking frankly about their sex life, was fake. So we had a chat with the magazine's former editor in chief Leo van Rooijen about it. Turns out the nude models weren't normal Dutch adolescents, as was stated in the magazine, but poor Polish and Romanian teenagers, who were working as prostitutes near the border with Germany. Scandalous! Read more

THE POVERTY ISSUE -

MEET THE KIDS OF LAISVALL
Simon, 15

Vice: How do you like living in Laisvall?

Simon: It's ok. There aren't that many cops here. Not until Easter.
THE PHOTO ISSUE 2004

Aaahhhh. The magic year when we launched VICE in Scandinavia. This photo was the cover of our first issue and over 1825 days of pure fun has gone by. Crazy. Check out the photo issue from waaaay back then, oh the memories.
SUITING UP, CRUSTING DOWN

Yuppies vs. Punks for a Working Week
Recently London was tousled by a series of riots led by outraged anarchists who were probably just really bored. As usual, it looked like a good time. But it also made us wonder who really has the superior lifestyle: hand-to-mouth agitators or the city-boy* capitalists they abhor?

LATEST CLOSE UP!

Danae Tsekoura

Bzzzzzz! We were JUICED off the super foods that the girls were pumping us full of in the Athenian sunshine. Raw, vegan cooking wasn't as bad as we thought, kinda good. But the sweetness of the gals made it taste better than the finest Kobe beef in the world.

If you're a psychotic murderer who needs to dispose of body parts across town, dressing up as a Godspell unicycle mime on his way to work is a surprisingly good option. The unicycle case will fit the average-sized kid and people tend to assume the smell is just coming from you.
