Typical autistic Filipino guest worker. I once encountered a Filipino guest worker in Taiwan who refused to eat anything except potato chips and white bread from the 7/11 convenience store down the block. Move to one of the renowned seafood capitals of the country for multiyear work contract, yet exclusively consume processed American junk food that is more expensive than the freshly caught local fare.

Cannibal family confesses to killing and eating at least 30 people in Russia
As usual, just go to the Russian newspapers for gore photos. They sure love their gore.

OWENSBORO, Kentucky --
A Kentucky car wash owner is asking for the public's help to identify a man they've deemed "Poopman."
The owner of Soak-n-Wet Car Wash in Owensboro said a man has been using their facility to do his business on two separate occasions.
According to surveillance video posted to the business' Facebook page on Tuesday, the man drove inside of the car wash area, walked to the front of his car, pulled down his pants (which look like scrubs), and then relieved himself over the drain.
But the owner said that was the second time Poopman struck.
Soak-n-Wet Car Wash posted another video pleading with the public to identify the man, saying, "Does anyone know this guy? It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Poopman!"
In the second video, it appears that the man completely took off his pants when used the "bathroom."
Police have been informed but it doesn't appear that they have any leads.
But this isn't the first time someone defecating in public has made headlines.
Earlier this month, a family in Colorado reached out to police to help find a woman they call the "Mad Pooper."

B.o.b., a rapper who had an album appropriately named "Who the fuck is B.o.B", has been gaining infamy for pushing his flat earth agenda for over a year. Now he recently launched this absurd gofundme campaign claiming that he's going to use the money to send satellites into space to prove that the world is as flat as his singing voice.
Here's the link to his campaign, it's currently sitting at almost 2k out of 1M.

Kiwi milk giant Fonterra bids for Murray Goulburn
New Zealand dairy giant Fonterra, the world's biggest dairy cooperative and a major exporter, has lodged a bid for the Australia's largest dairy processor the troubled Murray Goulburn.
Fonterra, which is already attracting dairy farmers away from Murray Goulburn and rapidly increasing its Australian milk supply, confirmed it had thrown its hat into the ring as a byer as it released its annual results for fiscal 2017 on Monday.
Fonterra posted a $NZ745 ($A682 million) net profit from its worldwide operations.
"We have placed an indicative, non-binding proposal into the mix, with Murray Goulburn," Fonterra Australia's managing director Rene Dedoncker told Fairfax Media.
"And we'll now leave that with the Murray Goulburn board and give them some space and respect just to review that, with other proposals that they've got.
"But there is potential in that space. But I guess what we're not doing is waiting for that, we're continuing down our own path of investment, and at the same time we'll see what happens on the other side."
Murray Goulburn has sought bids as part of a strategic review after a disastrous couple of years where it was caught paying too much to farmers for their milk in the face of a deep global slump in dairy prices.
The company has promised to update investors on the progress of the review at its annual general meeting in October.
Asked what was attractive about Murray Goulburn to Fonterra, Mr Dedoncker said: "It's more about our strategy. We know cheese and we know whey and nutritionals, those three areas, better than anybody else. And it's products that come from that that serve consumer food service and ingredients, that's fundamentally our strategy. And our investment that we're making is all in line with that. Where there's any synergy from Murray Goulburn, in respect to that strategy, that's where there's value. But it's limited to that as well."
While a number of companies have been named in media reports as being interested in Murray Goulburn, Fonterra is the first to have publicly declared its interest.
Fonterra also revealed on Monday that its Australian milk volume, the amount of milk it receives from farmers, is on track to jump by about 25 per cent this year to about two billion litres.
"That 25 per cent increase in milk I think talks to the confidence of farmers in terms of their attraction to moving across to Fonterra," Mr Dedoncker said.
"In the last 90 days we've had over 200 farmers join. And some of those farmers produce four-to-five million litres of milk in their own right, on their own farm. The vast majority of that 200 are Victorian farmers, that have come across."
Fonterra also had "a significant waiting list" of more Australian dairy farmers wanting to supply it.
Mr Dedoncker said Fonterra's milk supply in the current financial year could in fact be greater than two billion litres "if we have a good season".
In its annual review the dairy co-operative's chairman, John Wilson, lauded the performance of its Australian arm.
"In Australia the successful turnaround of our local business contributed to a four per cent increase in normalised earnings in Oceania," he said.
But on trade matters Mr Wilson expressed concern about the "trend towards rising protectionism and reduced international co-operation, both of which could slow global trade growth. Connecting our premium dairy products with global consumers relies on quality trade agreements in our key markets".
Fonterra also revealed that revenue jumped 12 per cent in fiscal 2017 to $NZ19.2 billion, and normalised earnings before interest and tax were $NZ1.16 billion, down 15 per cent.
Adam Jenkins, president of the United Dairyfarmers of Victoria, said he was watching closely to see how the Fonterra bid for Murray Goulburn would play out.
Mr Jenkins said the surge in Fonterra's milk volume was another sign of the significant churn in where farmers sent their milk.
"A fair proportion of that has gone to Fonterra," he said.

FBI SEIZES OVER 3,000 PENISES DURING RAID AT MORGUE EMPLOYEE’S HOME
FBI agents made an astonishing discovery this morning while executing a search warrant at the residence of a Houston mortician: 3,178 embalmed human penises.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected 54-year old Dave Murray, an employee of the Harris County Morgue, of being implicated in an organ trafficking network.
Investigating several reports of missing organs and body parts, dozens of agents raided his residence this morning, hoping to find evidence of his involvement in the crimes.
What they found on the site was a lot more disturbing than what they expected, as the FBI spokesman Andy Ramirez described the scene in an interview with WNTV-4.
“There were shelves everywhere, filled with hundreds of glass jars. Each of them contained a penis floating in formalin.”
According to Agent Ramirez, the accused rapidly confessed everything as soon as he was arrested.
“He explained in great detail, how he had been cutting off dead men’s genital organs and collecting them for more than ten years.”
It took the FBI more than seven hours to gather all the organs and other pieces of evidence that were found on the site.
A total of 53 criminal charges have already been filed against Mr. Murray and hundreds more could be filed over the next few days.
An anonymous FBI source told WNTV-4 that the number of charges could reach over 3,000.
Dave Murray will remain in custody for the moment as a psychiatric evaluation has been ordered to determine if he’s fit to stand a trial.
If he is considered fit, he should appear in court in October for the beginning of the procedures.
