Sweden’s TV4 meteorologist Tone Bekkestad is being punished by the station after the Norwegian weather forecaster posed for sexy pictures in a recent issue of a popular men’s magazine.
The piece in Slitz magazine was highlighting Sweden’s best looking women.
Bekkestad's pose - in tight, low-cut jeans, an open black blazer, and with her cleavage partly showing - was apparently too much for the broadcaster.
Bekkestad, who said she was duped by the magazine thinking it would use other less provocative pictures, was reportedly put on at least three months' leave from her duties as a result.
“She won’t be in the frame because her pictures in Slitz don’t fit with what TV4 stands for,” said Kinna Bellander, channel spokeswoman, reported media industry magazine Resumé.
Bekkestad has criticized Slitz for the publication of the pictures. The magazine said it did not trick Bekkestad, saying she had a great time during the photo shoot.
In Zilwaukee, MI there was a draw bridge carrying I-75 traffic. I-75 is a major north-south route in Michigan and activating the draw bridge on a summer holiday weekend caused traffic jams that were legendary. The Zilwaukee Bridge was "the pier that made Zilwaukee famous".
I wouldn't do that to you. ;)
You think you can score us a copy?

Oh, my, she can "make weather" with me anytime......
But I thought Scandanavians were so enlightened and sophisticated compared to dumbass Americans that even full nudity should be met with calm - why all this fuss there?
Reminds me of a limerick, oldie but goodie:
There once was a girl named Anheuser,
Who said no man could surprise her,
But Schlitz took a chance,
Put a Pabst up her pants
And now she is sadder.....Budweiser.
Ja, das doofen zee gaboofen.
I note a couple of high-pressure areas just off the coast there...
I agree..these are very tame
Yeah, like I said..... Scandanavians are so much more enlightened and sophisticated.........
