www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-58249337I'm sure this will affect some people here. I hope the place doesn't make it through and I subsequently never hear the phrase "cheeky Nandos" again

Agreed, providing all the staff get alternative jobs. Somewhere less cheeky.

variety.com/2021/music/news/nirvana-baby-nevermind-lawsuit-1235048465/Clearly needs money... Spencer Elden, the man whose unusual baby portrait was used for one of the most recognizable album covers of all time, Nirvana’s “Nevermind,” filed a lawsuit Tuesday alleging that the nude image constituted child pornography.
The album cover depicts Elden underwater in a swimming pool as a then-infant with his genitalia exposed. The image has generally been understood as a statement on capitalism, as it includes the digital imposition of a dollar bill on a fishhook that the baby appears to be enthusiastically swimming toward. Non-sexualized nude photos of infants are generally not considered child pornography under law.
However, Robert Y. Lewis, Elden’s lawyer, offers an unusual interpretation of the image to argue that it crosses the line into child porn, writing that the inclusion of currency in the shot makes the baby appear “like a sex worker.”

Probably took him this long to find a lawyer crazy enough to take the case.

If every girl I ever met had already seen my tiny winkie, I'd probably also be grumpy enough to file a ridiculous lawsuit

Took him 30 years to find a lawyer willing to take the case

I don't find the rental market in mainland Europe that bad tbh, seems to be far more protections for the tenant. However we all know the rental market in the UK comes across as rather predatory and I can imagine it's just going to get worse. |

Of all the headlines I expected to see today, I did not expect "Shakira: Singer attacked by a pair of wild boars" to be one of them. bbc.in/3zVVs2P |

I laughed out loud when I saw that headline on the BBC website. Which sounds a bit cruel, but how could you not?

Generally two types of 'prop' guns.
A non-firing replica or basically a normal gun with blanks loaded.
Load live ammo and your prop gun is a gun.
The other alternative I can think of is blanks do fire some kind of wadding for a short distance. That can kill from close range if it strikes you in the head.
Given the fact two people were affected I'd sadly say it sounds like a live round was fired in this case.
Can't even imagine how he'd feel, life ruining stuff.
