One reader, Rick, send me 2 interesting screencaptures, and a link. I think I must share them here with you all. The red boxes are added by myself, with some simple translations. However, I am to lazy to translate the details in the biggest box. If you can, just leave your translation in comment, I will furnish it here later.
I don’t know if it is legal or illegal for them to do this. I just find it very interesting, and think that they are very good at enjoying the best of both worlds.
You can click on the images for bigger resolution. The link to the pages where these were captured is after the images.

Poor man.
MANILA, Philippines (AP) — A village watchman in the central Philippines allegedly mistook an actor playing a masked gunman in a British film for a real assassin and fatally shot him, police said Monday.
Watchman Eddie Cuizon tried to accost Filipino actor Kirk Abella late Saturday then shot him as the actor was directed to speed away on a motorcycle with a masked driver, said community police chief Alexis Relado of central Cebu city’s Parian district.
Cuizon, 52, told police he was sleeping and was woken up by a concerned citizen who reported the presence of armed men in his community.
He told police he saw two masked men on a motorcycle and approached them but they sped away and he stumbled as he tried to stop them, injuring his knee. He fired at Abella when the actor pulled out a gun, which turned out to be made of plastic, Relado said.

The Crazy Cleaners business in the Czech Republic charges £150 per hour for its services, which include a choice of operatives in their underwear, topless – or full frontal.
Economics student Katka Kopecka explained: ‘We needed to find work and couldn’t find it so we thought of this.’
‘Nobody likes cleaning and everyone likes to look at a good body,’ added the 21-year-old, an alumnus of Charles University in Prague.
Don’t go presuming the agency offers cleaning services by ladies only, by the way – the firm currently has a mixture of 15 male and female students on its books.
And it’s emphatically not sexual in tone, as our friend Katka pointed out: ‘Quite often the people asking for our services are busy business people who want to relax.
‘Watching someone clean your house in underwear is a nice way for them to relax.
‘But this is not a prostitution service, it’s just a cleaning service.’

Bad bad propaganda for the hospital.
A Singapore couple have discovered that their baby conceived through in-vitro fetilisation (IVF) is not biologically theirs – the child’s DNA does not match the father’s.
The Straits Times reported that the couple – a Singaporean Chinese woman and her Caucasian permanent resident husband – were first suspicious when they noticed that their newborn baby’s complexion was noticeably different from theirs.
They were told by doctors at Thomson Fertility Centre – where they sought their IVF treatment – that the baby has type B blood, whereas their blood types are O and A.
It is not possible for a baby to have a different blood group from its parents, say doctors. The baby should have either blood type O or A not B.
The couple’s lawyer, S. Palaniappan told AFP, “They discovered it a few days after the birth of the baby. They wereinformed by the paediatrician that the baby’s blood group is B,” he said.
“So they were a bit surprised because the mother is O and the father is A. Biologically it’s not possible when you have such a combination.”
Raising concerns, the parents and baby then went through a DNA test, which showed that the baby has the mother’s DNA make-up, but not the father’s.
The couple now want answers from the Thomson Fertility Centre and have also sought legal advice.
Palaniappan said his clients, who are looking after the baby, have already informed the Ministry of Health (MOH) about the matter.
MOH is investigating the matter.
