The City Council of Leister (that’s in the U.K. for the geographically challenged), in an effort to curb teen pregnancy has produced and posted a viral video.

The economy is bad all over, especially for retailers. Look at what Fishs Eddy of New York City stuck in their window during the Christmas season.
