Is it true that the Heineken Red Star on the label is a symbolic sign?

The Heineken red star is an original icon of the brand, used since the very beginning. During the Cold War in the 60s, this star was perceived as an association with communism/socialism. Therefore, we replaced it by a white star with a red outline. Since this association disappeared we are now back to the original full Heineken red star. The star was the symbol of brewers in the Middle Ages in Holland and the rest of Europe and was said to have mystical power to protect the quality of the brew.

I lead a family In pinwheel the first round that score was introduced. We were all very active bankers, and for the first half of the round we were in first place by a gigantic margin.

We got raided down to nothing and even our score came close to finishing last.

Think of it from a selfish and prideful perspective.

I get married. It comes up in conversation with others that I'm married. They ask me if my spouse is a man or a woman. I'm insulted and so is she.

Or

No gay marriage. Pick another name to avoid confusion. Lets all say marriage is reserved between a man and a woman because they're relationship is capable of a form of intercourse that can lead to babies. More frankly: their parts fit together. I'm no longer being insulted by valid questions.

Well put

Lol. People can be completely ridiculous. I find people who don't like police to be really funny.

The protesters don't seem to understand the concept of personal responsibility. When you get drunk and charge an officer with a knife you're going to get shot. If you don't want to be shot then spend your welfare checks on food for your kids and birth control instead of knives and booze.

Those protesters should be angry at Jamines for drinking irresponsibly. Those protesters should be angry at Jamines for trying to attack two women. Those protesters should be angry at Jamines for charging police officers who were risking their lives to protect the people Jamines had attacked.

Hell if you try and attack anyone who is carrying concealed you're going to get shot and it's your own fault.

It's not the gun's fault. It's not the shooter's fault. It's still your own gosh darn fault.

She reminisced about the time she and her husband put on each other's clothing and ran around the park. She saw good memories of Mr. Beffender trying to run away from the officer in her high heels and pink polka dot dress. She thought of the private eye who refused to locate the killer and cried. She knew she may never find another man willing to wear her black panties for her.

As tears began to roll down her face Mrs. Von Buttinesse gave her a look that seemed to be asking why she was crying. She picked up a scone and took a bite. Her grief soon passed as soon as she saw a new potential cross dresser walk passed.
