kinda sad seeing books getting blasted everywhere when it comes to advertising nowadays. 
Advertising Ban For Gambling Firms
About 1,000 gambling websites based overseas will be banned from advertising in the UK under new rules.
Littlewoodscasino.com and Interpoker.com are among the sites that will be subject to the ban when it comes into force on September 1.
The aim is to stop unregulated gambling sites trying to attract UK punters, according to the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
Sites in the UK, Europe and other "white list" areas can advertise on TV, radio and in print media, subject to UK advertising rules.
Publishers, broadcasters and advertising companies found in breach could face fines or even imprisonment, the department warned.
To make it on to the white list, companies must show they are subject to a suitably stringent regulatory regime.
Culture Secretary James Purnell said: "I make no apology for banning adverts for websites operating from places that don't meet our strict standards.
