remove random element from priority queue

hej,
i would like to use the stl priority queue, but i occasionally have to remove random elements form the queue. is there any possibility for that?

concert problem:
i'd like to use priority queue for pending actions which i have to perform at a certain time. this actions may also be timeouts. this timeouts i would like to remove as soon as they are not necessary any more.

I'm fairly sure that there isn't. Use vectors for random access.
