Banned Beer Labels and Santa's Butt

Winter is an important time for micro- and craft-brewers. The colder months mean that the heavier beers sell better, and beer aficionados love their holiday-themed beverages. The heavy ales and porters — beers that warm the drinker — lead to sales spikes in the winter. For one of their special holiday beers, Ridgeway brewers had Gary Lippencourt paint them a Santa.

Huge Victory With Benetton!

The following is an email from Avaaz.org that we have recently received regarding one of their campaigns (the one about Benetton and Rana Plaza - for more info, click here...) and its splendid result. 

There is still a little bit more work needed to make the campaign even more successful, but it's definitely a brilliant result already...

Stay safe!

Bad Fiction Writing: Three Things Readers Hate

For me, fiction writing is the easiest writing I have ever encountered than to write non-fiction contents. Know why? That’s because, in fiction writing, you are dealing with what you feel or with what your mind would suggest you to write. It is more on your imagination and your won point of views. Of course, you should also stick to the facts but then, fiction writing can be any type of writing such as stories or novels, essays, poem and other kinds of writings that are not factual.

That Night When Moronic Antisemite Joshua Bonehill Had A Public Meltdown On Twitter...

Perhaps, the pressure of leading his brand new, but already failing, movement (losing support from his fellow neo-nazis by the minute) was too much after all for the infamous fascist, antisemite, racist and convicted serial liar, Joshua Bonehill?

Or, maybe, he had a Dickensian-like experience (being visited by the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future making him realise how badly he f*cked his life up and that, because of his own misguided actions, he will be a loser for the rest of it...) that completely freaked the self-proclaimed Far Right "Leader" out?  

Who knows... 

What we do know, though, is that, on the night of the 23rd of February, some of his and one of his (alleged) alts' tweets suddenly became even more weird than usual and quickly developed into what could only be described as Twitter's own version of a Twilight Zone episode.

How to Become a Popular Christian Author

The society today has been filled with various negative elements and energies. These negative things vary depending on their impact. War between countries, civil unrest, and weather calamities is just few of those that we can consider as high impacting while there are those that we can consider as medium or small scale like depression, and anything that will only affect one’s self or the immediate people that surrounds the person. 

In line with all the negativities today, people tend to seek or read books that are written on a positive note which will eventually give them hope and brings back their faith on the good side.

As such Christian books very timely and popular. In fact there are lots of new authors in this area. However, not all of these books are popular, only and a very small portion of the Christian books are popular in the society. 

Below are a few elements that one must consider on how to become a popular Christian Author.

Hackney's HOPE Versus Joshua Bonehill's HATE

Hackney's residents are organising as a community to respond inclusively and positively to convicted serial liar and self-confessed fascist Joshua Bonehill's attempt to incite racial hatred in their borough. 

A group of racists, organised by the infamous Daily Bale's owner, have decided to come to Hackney on 22 March to incite racial hatred. The initial instigator (a dangerously deluded individual from Yeovil) has been charged with various offences and his bail conditions prevent him from attending. However, other equally virulent racists have taken up the call.

While these often very violent individuals will be few  in number, they do intend to come into Hackney and target the Jewish community of Stamford Hill. Their strategy is to provoke a fight and then claim that multiculturalism leads to conflict.
