Shamelessly stolen from Robin, the explanation for that gold star on the England away shirt:

Most notable on the shirt... [is] the gold star marking England's sole World Cup victory... The Brazilian federation started the gold stars fad as a constant reminder to the rest of the world that Brazil has won more World Cups than anyone else. Why Umbro and the Football Association should cater to this Brazilian (and later Italian and German) triumphalism by putting a single star on our shirt--a measure of our comparative inferiority in winning only one World Cup and that on home soil--is mystifying. Those who watch the game know what the count is without this unnecessary bit of goo-gaw. We should ignore the stars, as we always have; they have nothing to do with the present-day team. Just because other leading national teams do certain things doesn't mean we have to copy them. We shouldn't feel the need to boast about our past accomplishments just because others feel the need to do so. The three lions emblem, the sole adornment on England's shirt for more than a century, is sufficient symbol of our team's grand tradition.

Here is the gallery of Barbies artfully posed. And fully protected by US law.

This is a gallery of images of Bert and Ernie which I assume is equally protected, but by God does it ruin their reputations. This link is most definitely NSFW.
