PAMELA ANDERSON

Picture of Pamela Anderson

Pamela Denise Anderson is a Canadian actress and former glamour model. She was born in 1967 at Ladysmith, British Columbia. Pamela Anderson's career started after being displayed on a large screen during a British Columbia Lions football game as a result of which she was signed by Labatt's beer for an advertising campaign, which in turn led to her being approached by Playboy magazine (by 2007 she had appeared on the cover of Playboy magazine a record eleven times, first in October 1989 and lastly in 2004). Moving to Los Angeles in 1990 she became internationally famous for playing Casey Jean Parker (CJ) in 111 episodes of the television series 'Baywatch' between 1992 and 1997. In 1996 she starred in the film 'Barb Wire'.
Even before the theft and internet distribution of a pornographic film featuring Pamela Anderson and her husband Tommy Lee in 1996 Pamela Anderson had become an iconic pin-up for teenage boys around the world, and was famous for her blond hair (artificial, her natural hair colour is brown) and already large breasts which were famously enlarged even further by silicon implants which were later removed in 1999. In 2006 she was ranked 24th in FHM magazines 100 sexiest women of the world table.

SCHIEBERAMSCH

Schieberamsch is a point trick card game for three players. It occurs as a variation within Skat, but also makes a good game in its own right. As it is (mostly) a negative game, it looks like a cross between Skat and Hearts, but in practice it feels significantly different from either. It is played with a 32-card pack is used, French or German suited, containing the cards AKQJT987 (AKOUT987) in each suit. If German suits are used the correspondence is acorns=clubs, leaves=spades, hearts= hearts, bells= diamonds. The trump suit consists of just the four jacks ranking in the order CJ (highest), SJ, HJ, DJ (lowest). The remaining cards comprise 4 plain suits, in each of which the cards rank A (highest), T, K, Q, 9, 8, 7 (lowest).
