What happen-Gallery loses a Rembrandt in the mail?
OSLO - A Norwegian art gallery lost a Rembrandt etching worth up to $8,600 in the mail after trying to save money on courier and insurance costs, the gallery’s chief said on Thursday. The Soli Brug Gallery in Greaaker, about 80 kilometres south of Oslo, purchased a copy of Rembrandt’s ‘Lieven Willemsz, van Coppenol, Writing-Master’ made in around 1658 from a British dealer, only to have it lost in the Norwegian postal system. “Using a courier or special insurance is quite expensive so we have used regular mail until now,” Ole Derje, the gallery’s chairman said. “It is worth around 40,000 to 50,000 crowns ($6,900-$8,600)and the postal service is offering us compensation of 500-1,000 crowns.” Derje said his gallery, which is displaying works by Dürer, Rembrandt, Goya, Munch and Dali, received notice to pick up the package but when he went to collect it, it was nowhere to be found.
Crazy-Couple have sex on Brighton beach in front of shocked parents and children
This is the shocking moment a couple appeared to be brazenly having sex on a beach in broad daylight in front of gobsmacked parents and children. Disgusted Simon Cummins and his mates were stunned when they heard the woman's apparent sexual moans as they walked along the promenade on Sunday morning. Simon, 30, had been to a friend's
stag party the night before but was up at 9am to pick up his car to travel to a charity football match. But as the boys passed the famous Brighton Pier, near West Street, they apparently heard, then saw, a buxom blonde gyrating on top of a man on the beach. Just yards from the sordid scene holidaymakers and children can be seen passing by. At one point a youngster points to the lewd goings on before his disgusted mum pulls him away. The bonking beachgoers also attracted another crowd of men who appeared to stop and take pictures – with one man even supposedly trying to join in. Sussex Police said they did catch up with the couple and made two arrests before issuing on-the-spot fines. But Simon, from Waltham Abbey, Essex, said he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw what was happening and thinks the bonkers should have been banged up.
Unique-Miss Dairy Cow Pageant in china
Among other such worthy hopes of bringing about world peace and solving third world hunger by means of sequins and standing around in bikinis, the cause of dairy cows is frequently peculiarly neglected by beauty pageant contestants. Presumably the Miss
Dairy Cow Pageant - held in Shuozhou, China over the weekend - was set up to redress the issue balance. But had you herd about it? Unfortunately, information on the prestigious show is a little hard to come by – and we’re not sure which of the feathery-
mask wearing competitors actually calf-ed out a niche beauty win for themselves. Even after consulting many, many udder pics from the event, we still can’t tell who emerged victorious. We’d love to offer them a cow pat on the back. That’s enough cow puns, now. Think we’ve milked them until the cows came home.
Wow-Most expensive 'A-hole' costs man €60,000
A Hamburg man has been fined €60,000 for calling someone an Arschloch in a fight over a parking space, after he angered the judge by hiding his wealth. The flashpoint happened on December 23, 2011, when the plaintiff waited more than five minutes for a parking space on a busy road, only for the defendant, named Ernst-Gernot M, to shoot into a spot under his nose, Die Welt newspaper reported.
During the ensuing row, Ernst-Gernot M. dropped the "A" bomb - as confirmed by a female witness, who testified in the eight-day court case. State prosecutors had demanded a fine of €80,000, while the defending lawyer argued, "My client is an elderly gentleman who always maintains his composure. If he did say the word 'arsehole,' then he would have done it so quietly that no-one could have heard it."
Though the incident itself did not take long to unravel, the court case got bogged down because the defendant failed to provide credible evidence of his financial situation. He described himself as a "poor man," who lived on €1,400 a month that his family gave him. But the 68-year-old was actually a property dealer who had been mentioned in the local newspaper a few years ago as owner of a high-rise block.
This forced the court to investigate his fortune, and found that he lived in a 171 square metre flat, and paid €2,000 a month on his car lease alone. The court also found that he withdrew around €10,000 a month from his bank, on the basis of which it estimated his monthly income at €60,000.The fine, of 30 days’ income, was calculated at €60,000."It was probably Hamburg's most expensive insult ever," the judge said – and banned the man from driving for a month too, for good measure.
