Stripped of the shelves A Belgian lager with a risque marketing strategy has been stripped from sale.
Bottles of Rubbel Sexy Lager featured a picture of a woman with a removable swimsuit on the label.
Drinkers could scratch her clothes off to leave her naked.
Alcohol industry regulator the Portman Group has ruled the name of the drink and the scantily-clad model could lead drinkers to associate the product with sexual success.
The group had received a complaint from trading standards officers in Buckinghamshire.
The lager is produced by Brouwerij Huyghe and had been imported to the UK by Beer Paradise Ltd. It has now been withdrawn from sale.
:laugh_at::laugh_at: Don't think we have that beer in Denmark
German army in "Racist video" row Shame on them..
But it probably happens in Denmark and UK too :hopeless:
I just hate racists..Does that make me a racist too ??
Quote:
A video aired on German TV has shown an army recruit on firing practice being ordered to pretend he was in New York's Bronx facing hostile African Americans.
In the grainy 90-second video, the instructor tells the soldier to swear as he fires his gun.
US civil rights leader, Al Sharpton, said it was outrageous to depict blacks as "target practice".
New York officials say they are saddened and frustrated that the Bronx district is depicted so negatively.
"Clearly these folks don't know anything about African-Americans or the Bronx," said Bronx borough president Adolfo Carrion Jnr, who recently returned from a trip to Germany to promote tourism to the district.
He has demanded an apology from the Germany military over the clip.
Skulls
During the filmed training session, an instructor tells the soldier: "You're in the Bronx, a black van pulls up in front of you and three African-Americans get out and start really insulting your mother... act!".
The soldier then fires his gun several times and shouts obscenities in English, as the instructor encourages him to curse even louder.
The clip was filmed in a forest in July 2006, near the barracks of the northern German town of Rendsburg .
The German army said it has been aware of the video since January and was investigating it.
It is the latest in a series of scandals to hit the German military.
A group of 18 army instructors are on trial in the country accused of abusing and humiliating recruits during training in 2004.
Last year, German newspapers published images of German soldiers serving in Afghanistan posing with skulls.
Can't find the video anywhere yet
One way to get past roadblocks… I was trying to satisfy my curiosity as to whether I had correctly identified last weekends Police helicopter (heddlucopter?) as an Aerospatiale AS-355 (which I had), but found this as well (partly inspired by one of our new users usernames :groucho:)

Kincafe a social networking site I came across a neat family website by name Kincafe. It lets me upload pictures and videos, build a family tree, have a calender and share stories & blogs. Now I have signed into it and invited my daughter, so that I can see my newborn grandson Joe's pictures. I finally found a site which i was on a look out, since many days. www kincafe com
Great night in Accrington. 4000 people gathered for a illegal rave in a disused warehouse in Accrington in Lancashire. Lead cars and decoys lead the party goers to the venue. The police eventually seal off the town center in an effort to put a stop to the parties in the area making several arrests...

Anyone know about the Sanctuary on 4th May ? The Sanctuary in Digbeth, of course. I can't find out any details about what's supposed to be on there that night :-(
I want to know cos kick-ass psy-rockers Infected Mushroom have a gig detailed on their website at http://www.infected.co.il/futureCitySkin/ , but I can't find out if it's still on, or who might be organising the party, or anything :-( Asked on the usual psy forums but nobody replied. I can't even see a website for the Sanctuary which might have details of what's on.
If anyone in the West Mids has seen any flyers or posters for the Sanctuary that Friday 4th May, I'd really appreciate knowing more about it :-)
Energy 1989 This party took place in Membury just off the M4 on the 1st July 1989. In order to stop the second party held at the same location the Berkshire the police had to seal off a 20 mile stretch of the M4 motorway...

bad news about glade(possibly) here's some bad news glade .:cry: :cry: :crazy:
hopfully it's still goin to happen but we'll have to wait & see
9pm, Friday 13th April...
Hello from all of us at the Glade...
As some of you may or may not know, we had the license hearing today. We were
expecting, as in previous years, to get a positive result this evening but the
council are undecided and will be informing us of their decision early next
week.
As a result, tickets will not be going on sale tomorrow (Saturday, 14th April)
as we don't want to sell tickets for an unlicensed festival! Please bear with us
for a few more days..
We're now not going to name a time for tickets going on sale until we have
received the decision from the council and so will be, as soon as we know,
sending out an eflyer to all people on the mailing list with a link to tickets.
We are also unable to announce the exact ticket price yet. There have been quite
a few enquiries asking if people on the mailing list will get early access to
tickets and we're going to take this opportunity to make that so...
So please keep an eye out for an email from us during the course of next week.
The tickets will not be shown as on sale through the website until 24 hours
after the eflyer has been sent!
The lineups we're not going to publish yet either. Again we will start
publishing this on the site as soon as we have a go from the council...
We hope you understand and we can't wait to move to the next stage of this
extraordinary journey...
Anger management!!! When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know. I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it.
A man answered, saying
"Hello." I Politely said, "This is David. Could I please speak with
Robert Campbell ?"
Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right f*kin
number!" and the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. When I tracked down Robert's correct number to call him, I found that I had accidentally transposed the last two digits.
After hanging up with him, I decided to call the 'wrong'
number again. When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled "You're a C*nt!" and hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'C*nt' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, " You're a C*nt!" It always cheered me up.
When Caller ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic
'C*nt' calling would have to stop. So, I called his number and
said,"Hi,this is John Smith from BT . I'm calling to see if you're
familiar with our Caller ID Program?"
He yelled "NO!" and slammed down the phone. I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're a C*nt!"
One day I was at Lakeside Shopping Centre, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some guy in a gunmetal grey Land Rover cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot, but the idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his back window, so I wrote down his number.
A couple of days later, right after calling the first C*nt ( I had his
number on speed dial,) I thought that I'd better call the Land Rover
C*nt, too. I said, "Is this the man with the gunmetal grey Land Rover
for sale?"
Yes, it is", he said. "Can you tell me where I can see it?" I
asked."Yes, I live at 129 Alice Street, in Ilford. It's a terraced
house, and the car's parked right out in front."
"What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Steve Hansen,"
he said. "When's a good time to catch you, Steve?"
"I'm home most days as I'm currently unemployed."
"Listen, Steve, can I tell you something?"
"Yes?"
"Steve, you're a C*nt!" Then I hung up, and added his number to my
speed dial, too.
Now, when I had a problem, I had two arseholes to call.
Then I came up with an idea.
I called C*nt #1. Hello." "You're a C*nt!" (But I didn't hang up.)
"Are you still there?" he asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Stop calling me," he screamed.
"Make me," I said.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"My name is Steve Hansen."
"Yeah? Where do you live?"
"I live at 129 Alice Street, Ilford, a terraced house, with my
gunmetal grey Land Rover parked out the front
He said, "I'm coming over right now, Steve.
And you had better start saying your prayers."
I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, C*nt," and hung up.
Then I called C*nt #2. "Hello?" he said.
"Hello, C*nt," I said.
He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..."
"You'll do what?" I said.
"I'll kick your arse," he exclaimed.
I answered, "Well, C*nt, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now."
Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at
129 Alice Street, Ilford , and that I was on my way over there to kill
my gay lover. Then I called Channel 5 News about the hoodie war going
down in Alice Street, Ilford .
I quickly got into my car and headed over to Alice Street. I got there
just in time to watch two C*nts beating the crap out of each other in
front of six police cars, an overhead police helicopter and a News crew.
NOW I feel much better.
Anger management really works :groucho:
