Just in time for Oktoberfest comes a cow-friendly alternative to traditional Bavarian lederhosen, those Pinocchio-style knickers that are traditionally made of leather. PETA Germany recently presented inventor Peter Kolb with a progress award for his swimwear designs that easily double as animal-free alternatives to leather lederhosen: yodel lay hee hoo (-ray), indeed!
Leather-free lederhosen are cheaper, beer-proof, and most importantly, animal-friendly. Let’s tap a keg and toast compassion.

The British Secret Service MI5 called in the help of a certain German astrologist during the Second World War. The astrologist was used in the battle against Hitler. This was made public today by the British National Archive.

The German astrologist went by the name of De Wohl. He came to Britain in 1935 and had little trouble to convince the British Intelligence community that Hitler would not take any military decision without consulting his personal astrologist. Hitler indeed had a personal astrologist. This was Ernest Kraft, a Swiss national.

De Wohl told MI5 he could find out what Kraft’s predictions would be. This way De Wohl supplied the British with horoscopes from 1940 until 1943.  These horoscopes were then used to predict Hitler’s military strategies.

I think I have new hero. Though I also envy him big time !

A murder trial in a London courtroom, Old Bailey to be exact, had to be interrupted for a rather strange reason yesterday. On trial were six youths suspected of murder. The trial was interrupted because of a female jury member being distracted by a man in a mini skirt.

The 37-year-old transsexual Brian Alliban later admitted he had forgotten to cross his legs. The female jury member was disturbed by the fact the the guy also was not wearing any underwear. So she decided to write a memo to the judge to inform him she was not able to pay attention.

The judge paused the session and ordered court police to take Mr. Alliban out of the courtroom.

Brian Alliban, who calls himself Naomi, is scheduled to undergo a sex change operation. ” I am on my way to becoming a woman, but sometimes I am having trouble with my underwear. I was wearing a checkered mini skirt and I didn’t really sit as a woman is supposed to sit. Also the public stage is somewhat higher then the court area. This made people easily look under my skirt,” Alliban later said.

After the short interruption the trial proceeded as planned.

Belgian criminals, posing as cops, have stolen at least 500.000 euros from German senior citizens. The Aken and Eupen Police Departments made this public yesterday.

The fake cops have been operating around the the town of Sankt-Vith, on the Belgian-German border.

Their scheme was the following: not far from the border they intercepted expensive cars with German license plates. Preferably the cars were being driven by seniors. To make the victims pull over they used fake police badges.

This way they regularly intercepted people who had just withdrawn money from banks in Luxemburg. The money would have been there to evade taxes. Then the so called cops would ‘collect’ the money as to investigate it.

The criminals, aged 25 24 and 38, have been in custody since the end of December last year.

As of now the police are investigating thirteen of these cases. They suspect more people have been victimized by the criminal’s scheme, but are too afraid to come forward, out of fear for the fiscal police.
