Picture of the Day (potd)
This image ran in the Yated Neeman. It is of George Bush walking with British PM Gordon Brown. If you look at the description of the picture, the Yated translated the British PM's name from Brown to "Chum" as if it was the color and not a name...
That's like French Hill in Jerusalem being translated as גבעה הצרפתית. The word "French" is named after a British general, and so the name in Hebrew should really be גבעת פרנץ.
