Harry Potter condoms offer no protection from Warner Bros lawsuit

A Swiss manufacturer has been hit with legal action from Warner Bros for naming a condom ‘Harry Popper’, after the popular film franchise Harry Potter.
The Hollywood studio is reportedly suing the company for copyright infringement, saying that: ‘The image of my client is in danger’.

The details of the case were outlined in broken English in Swiss newspaper Bote, saying: ‘For Warner Bros, is obvious: the sorcerer Harry Potter have a ‘very positive image’.

‘Condoms have no business there. Especially not now. According to Warner Bros in November to plan the launch of the new Potter movie. Also a new video game is in preparation. ‘

What also seems to be lost in translation, is why the manufacturer would name a condom ‘popper’ anyway – seeing as that word doesn’t encourage the greatest of quality.

There’s no doubt that Daniel Radcliffe would be flattered by the association with latex protectors but bosses at Warner Bros are not happy.

Police seek inflatable breasts

The owner of a pair of inflatable breasts is being sought by police, who believe they were stolen.

The novelty knockers were found with a teddy bear photo frame and a silver clock, in a bag in Cheltenham.
A coin with the name Jonathan Jones and the birthdate 5-11-89 was also found among the collection of items.
'Some of the items seem to have sentimental value,' said a police spokesman.
Police officers are asking the owners of the items, which were found just before Christmas in the town centre of Cheltenham, to come forward.

Stare at boobs for longer life: Study

Frankfurt, Germany, December 6 -- A rather bizarre study carried out by German researchers suggests that staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and increases their life expectancy. According to Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist and author of the study, gawking at women’s breasts is a healthy practice, almost at par with an intense exercise regime, that prolongs the lifespan of a man by five years.

She added, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female, is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out."

A five-year research on 500 men
Researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany did an in-depth analysis of 200 healthy males over a period of five years. Half the volunteers were instructed to ogle at the breasts of women daily, while the rest were told to refrain from doing so.

At the close of the study, the researchers noted that the men who stared at the breasts of females on a regular basis exhibited lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and lesser episodes of coronary artery disease.

Sexual desire linked to better blood circulation
The researchers declared that sexual desire gives rise to better blood circulation that signifies an overall improved health.

Weatherby explained the concept stating, "Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthy.

"Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years."

In addition, she also recommended that men over 40 should gaze at larger breasts daily for 10 minutes.

The German research is believed to be published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
