In Hungary, forralt bor ("boiled wine") is typically made from a cheap version of the country's popular Egri Bikavér and spiced with cinnamon and cloves.

I'm having a nice hot cup of tea instead. Of course, I am still at work and they have a funny attitude to alcohol in the US.

They turn nuts when they drink it? Or, perhaps its not usual to drink it on a monday?

I think it is more that I am still at work. When I was back in Blighty it was no problem having a relaxing beer at lunchtime but here, in the Nanny State, that is frowned upon.

Although norwegians cant (currently) have alcohol at work, you can drink as much as you please after words, as long as you are sober the next day. You can actually drink quite a lot in order to get sober within 8 hours.

Jeez - you mean that your employer actually allows you to get sloshed in YOUR FREE TIME???? How extremely generous of him! 
I could actually see a Swedish rule being made about not drinking in your spare time on week days, but if such a stupid rule (to add to all the other stupid Swedish rules) were to be made, I - as a Dane - would kindly and politely ask everybody to fluck off and mind their own damn business about what I do in my spare time.
That said, they also have another stupid unwritten rule here in Sweden that apparently says that you can drink a normal beer for lunch. Again, as a Dane, I find that ludicrous.
They have a very cramped and double standards look on alcohol here. Rant over!

Getting like that here now, I once heard someone say ( in the office in London ) "lunch is for losers" - he was a Canadian though. Do we work to live or live to work ?

Mulled wine with cloves = frugging horrible. Really frugging horrible.
Mulled wine without cloves = pretty yummy.
It's the "Boadithea is pronounthed Boodikka" kind of anal fixation* that makes people keep including it in the recipe.
* i.e. they don't know what they're talking about, but some dick said it in some stupid magazine/speculation book/QI episode, and they think they're clever for following like idiots.

Nooo, recovering from a cold and you just reminded me of another good reason to be at home. Very nice for cold times.
Have pitty on the poor folk at workplaces that don't allow alcohol as a refreshing beverage during work hours.

A Halloween zombie costume of disgraced DJ Jimmy Savile has been removed from the website of online retailer, Amazon.
I can't see what harm there would be in someone dressing as a Zombie Pedo and running around with the kiddies...
...oh wait, maybe it isn't such a 'clever' idea.

Unless I'm missing it, it doesn't say who made the decision to remove it, I think that's kind of important...(i.e. was it Amazon or the seller?)

Removed? Or sold out?

Should Nintendo be aggressively crushing this boy and the online browser version of the game or should they give him a reasonable offer, buy the game off him and maybe win some customer loyalty points? Simply crushing the game will make fans of the series turn on Nintendo, maybe they're missing a trick here? Nintendo as many might know haven't been doing well recently, the WII U being a massive flop.
"Earlier this year Nintendo stopped people posting footage of their games on YouTube." Which in my opinion is one of the worst decisions a gaming company could make, people watch these games on YouTube, watch the "Let's Play" and are encouraged to play the game themselves, it's free, positive marketing!

Yeah, next they'll be suing people for having played it, a la the recording industry.

Your reading the wrong story  , not arguing whether they can, but whether they should, are they shooting themselves in the foot by being so aggressive?

of course they should. it's their game.
aggressive?
imagine you're a professional programmer. one day you discover that someone has produced a knock-off of one of your best selling titles and made it available for free. you might think the person who blatantly ripped you off was the aggressive one.

Question for you... How much money is Nintendo currently making off of selling a 28 year old game...? 
Everyone that is playing that game online has most likely owned that game in one form or another, whether it was the original NES version, or one of the Gameboy remakes, or the Wii Virtual Console. What is the harm in letting someone that has already bought the game (at least once) play it on a medium that you do not offer it on?
