Stupid advertising breaks down at McDonald's



Bern - Pretty embarrassing, what the burger Brater of have McDonald's as done in Switzerland: it is just with a poster campaign, wanted to advertise in the fast-food chain for federal meat has crept in an embarrassing faux pas - a wrong cow!
The picture shows a cow with a spot pattern, which shows the outlines of Switzerland. In addition, the slogan "100% beef from Switzerland". Doof it: The ruminant has a tag, to the clearly recognize the abbreviation "AT" is - for Austria.
Noticed is the story, as the Swiss farmer Mike Hirschi looked at the poster closely. He published his discovery in the mistaken agricultural magazine "Schweizer Bauer".
"Yes, the ear tag, we made a mistake," said Nicole Schöwel, spokeswoman for McDonald's Switzerland. The image was actually made in Austria and used, of course, with Austria-cow spots. For Switzerland, the image has been processed - only the brand, the designers had overlooked.
But Schöwel soothes the Confederates: "For more than 30 years, we use Swiss beef. Only in market shortages, we depart from the Italian meat, which is the exception ..."

Lawaree and the big butterflies



Dusseldorf - "Such a game is a dream for any footballer," says Fortune's top scorer Axel Lawaree.
The 34-year-old is now already in its 17th Professional year, has in his career actually already experienced. Everything? "No," contradicts the Belgium-bombers.
"A home game in which one has to climb himself in the hand, not to mention such a record crowd - it was with me before. It tingles right. "
Whether Ranisav Jovanovic can attack next to him (bruising in the calf, had to pause yesterday), is questionable. Langeneke yesterday could indeed participate in soccer-tennis, but has "no pain".
Even Michael Melka was not good on it: Before the cabin a wild rabbit died, the goalkeeper ("I own two rabbits at home") wrapped the dead animal in a towel and buried it by hand directly behind the building with changing rooms.

Et Zillchen is janz jeck op de Fööss


Cologne -
Oh, dat is nice again! Sunday celebrates the premiere of the new Cecilia Wolkenburg Divertissementchens: "Met Bläck Fööss."
EXPRESS could ever be at a rehearsal at the opera here.
And even if it is of course still hooked and tweaked, the homage to the 40th anniversary of the cult band is beautiful. But instead of retelling the story, it goes with three Cologne families on a journey from the present to the 60s.
This kölsche's texts to known classical melodies (from "Peer Gynt" to the "Magic Flute"). And about 20 Fööss songs run through the show, some with new lyrics - from "drink but ene met" to "MGV Concordia", the Fööss-Ulknummer about men singing societies.
"The course we have accepted with great joy," says the musical director, Bernhard Steiner. On view are the Fööss but only as a silhouette target and as "Stowaways" as they called themselves in the 60s. For the choir members symbolized in the "Stupid Nut and Horst Muys.
A nice reunion with the carnival legends, suitable sentimental about this evening.
The addition of this fact is from the track: a number of the move next year into the Zillchens with opera Palladium. One of the main problems for the older choir-masters: for many Turks in Mülheim. Such a table-level has Zillchen's not necessary.
