Despite some downside risks, we maintain our positive outlook on food consumption growth in Bahrain throughout the forecast period. We forecast food consumption growth in local currency terms reaching 5.7%, down from 6. 6% in 2014, supported as it is by strong growth in the mass grocery retail sector. Real GDP growth is forecast to reach 3.8% in 2 015 and 2016 . However, employment and wage growth have slowed in recent months and are yet to show signs of improvement.

Food consumption growth for 2015: +5.7%; compound annual growth rate (CAGR) 2014 to 2019: +5.9%.

More motorcycle relatable quotes/motorcycle wisdom from one of my all time favorite writers, Hunter S. Thompson. Let the good times roll!
Posts Tagged 'speed'
Ermahgerd I better start a personal bail fund. Paul Clark (after taking his new Ducti Hypermotard for a ride), quote of the day
Film: Out of Nothing
The magic of Bonneville Salt Flats and land speed racing there is mentioned often around these parts. During my 2012 trip to the BUB speed trials and Bonneville, I had the good fortune to meet a very talented photographer and videographer, Chad DeRosa. He and I both had the same mission- capture the magic of the salt flats and Sodium Distortion race team. Our end vision however was very different- he was filming for "Out of Nothing," an epic tale of four men forging land speed records. While I bounced around the… Continue Reading »
Old school stunting on a Kawasaki Z1300 with Arto Nyqvist. (Thanks for the tip, Anders!) (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Chris' Speed Sleeve
My good friend Chris Herrin beginning his speed sleeve- getting tattooed by Matthew Mattison.
"Faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death." I've posted this Hunter S. Thompson quote before but I do believe it's going to be my next tattoo, so the timing is perfect.
The new 2012 Kawasaki ZZR1400… is supposedly the fastest production bike [off the line] in the world. "More torque at all RPM" and "significantly more power in the mid-high RPM range". This video in Azione is pretty bad ass and definitely gives me the "I want it" feelings. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

$1 million bond ordered for alleged Milwaukee serial kiiller
A $1 million bond was ordered Wednesday for alleged Milwaukee serial killer Walter Ellis.
He made his first court appearance on homicide charges in the deaths of Joyce Mims in 1997 and Ouithreaun Stokes a decade later.
Milwaukee Police say Ellis's DNA was found on eight prostitutes who were stabbed and strangled to death since 1986.
Ellis, 49, is now charged in four of those deaths, and other counts are expected today.

Want a quick and easy project that also makes a great gift? Chalkboard coasters. I got these wood sliced coasters at World Market awhile back (but you could easily find yourself a log and saw it up) and grabbed some of my DecoArt chalkboard paint. I just squeezed some of the paint onto the coaster and painted it up to the bark border. I let it dry for a couple hours. After it was dry, I rubbed some chalk across it to … [Read more...]

DIY Doorway Trim
I recently gave my entry a makeover. I added some beautiful board and batten which you can find a tutorial for here. (It's a little different in the tutorial, but it's not hard to figure out how to adjust it.) But at the end of the board and batten is a large doorway that leads to the master suite. We wanted this to be trimmed out, so I planned it in with the board and batten project. Here's the before--you can see how boring it … [Read more...]
Heart String Art
I didn't even mean to call it 'heart string art' but there it is. That's what it is. Ha! I was challenged by Valspar and Porch.com to use the Pantone color of the year Marsala in a Valentine's Day project along with one other mystery item, which turned out to be a chevron stencil. As it happens, I also was planning a project in which I would make a heart to go along with my rustic 'love letters' that I repurposed from my sisters wedding … [Read more...]
DIY Mudroom Bench Part 2
So it's time to talk about the top part of my DIY Mudroom Bench. This part was actually pretty easy and painting was the longest part (isn't it always?) But once you get past the first part of the actual bench, this part will seem easy. All the supplies you will need were listed in my DIY Mudroom Bench Part 1 post. So first I laid a piece of 3.5x48" MDF across the bottom and then trimmed it to be the same length as the bench. I … [Read more...]
Chalky Finish Paint Organizer
As you might know, I'm a big fan of the DecoArt Chalky Finish paints. I have a bunch of them now and they were getting disorganized. Since we finally got my craft pegboard up, I have changed things around a little bit. And I wanted to make a space for a Chalky Finish paint organizer. So first I had to make the Chalky Finish organizer. I wanted to do it out of materials I could easily purchase so if anyone else wanted to make them they … [Read more...]
Rustic Stocking Holders & Giveaway
You know me and rustic--we were made for each other. I think I could have survived during early pioneer days. I have all those homemaker skills down pretty well. I really was channeling early settlers when I made these rustic stocking holders. They were pretty easy and I really love how they turned out. It totally seems like something they would have made and had in their house. Although maybe they just pounded some nails into the … [Read more...]
Scandinavian Inspired Ornaments
Hello friends! As part of the DecoArt Design Team, this month I was challenged to come up with a project with the theme of International Holidays. There are so many options here, but I was really drawn to the bold red and white of Scandinavia. I really love their style and art, so I decided to give my own a try. It ended up being pretty easy and anyone can do it! I mean seriously, my six year old helped me with this, so yes--anyone can do … [Read more...]
How to Strip Paint Off Wood
There are varying ways of stripping paint off wood. Or rather, there are varying products. But I have only used one, and that is because it is safe. I wouldn't mind using Klean Strip and getting in with the chemicals, but I work in close quarters with my kids and I wanted to use something that wouldn't put out toxic fumes or could possibly cause injury if the kid touched it. I may give Klean Strip a try in the future. But for now, I use … [Read more...]

The PIC Microcontroller Projects book features 12 complete PICmicro projects in easy to understand BASIC.
This is a recent addition to the Tab/McGraw-Hill lineup on how to use an AVR microcontroller. The AVR datasheets are fine, but they're not as useful as this book!
The Programming & Customizing the PICmicro book is a book for beginners and features 12 project and 30 experiments.
Mechanical Devices for the Electronic Experimenter covers numerous mechanisms for robotics and electronics applications. A great resource for brainstorming!
This essential title in McGraw-Hill's ROBOT DNA SERIES is just what robotics hobbyists need to build an effective drive train and gain a full understanding of robot locomotion.
Gordon McComb's Robot Builders Bonanza - 4th Ed. is considered by many to be the bible of hobby robotics.
123 Robotics Experiments for the Evil Genius by Myke Predko is a great starting point for anyone who is just interested in either electronics or robotics.
This book walks you through the essential skills you need to build and control devices using the Propeller chip and its parallel processing environment.
Just recently find out about MAKE Magazine? I bet you're scrambling to find back-issues. Or stealing your friend's copies, and "conveniently" forgetting to return them.
Microcontrol'n Apps is an intermediate book on PICmicros.

LTS / Gold extras
Ellos...ZMacZ Furreh here..
I just (re-) checked the extras provided by the subscriptions.
The actual benefits (difference with FTP and silver) would be:
(taking into account that some restrictions fade after 20 hrs gameplay)
- Energy Cap increase from 10M to 1B.
- One (?) char slot.
- One bridge officer slot.
- 30 inventory slots.
- 60 Bank inventory slots.
- 1 free retrain token per rank (so 6 in all IF you go old/LTS early..)
- free foundry access (+8 slots), but most people don't create much on here..
- veteran awards
- unlimited customer service (but that's only usefull if you have trouble to begin with.)
- 500 free zen per month. (actual worth $5 )
Now although this list makes it appear worthwhile, for seasoned players they know better..
And I'm sorry to say that...
Don't you think that an actual TANGIBLE benefit would work better ?
I'd say something like doubling the daily limit for DIL refining...
Or adding GOLD missions..(only playable for GOLD players..)
Personally I'd love to have a de-restriction on playing Gorn-minefield...
(So it would be playable solo...with the drops and mission success rewards to match..)
Another benefit might be that instead of getting regular fleet reinforcements,
one might be able to get reinforcements in the shape of one your own ships in your account as a backup..
led by one of your BOFFS..like the away team on the ground..
Now THAT would be an FANTASTIC benefit...
I know one thing though...if the actual benefits don't get changed it's gonna be a hard sell..
(at least in my case..)
Now instead of adding "YAY's" or "I agrees" as replies, please refrain from doing so...
Add a reply ONLY if it's an idea that could be a nice counter weight for spending the cash on going Gold or LTS...(and don't make it pike-dreams, plz, so no 10K ZEN kinda deals.)
Thanx for reading through till the end..

Microsoft Launches Office For iPad: Includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 184
from the to-a-tablet-near-you dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Doesn't seem that way: [zdnet.com]
Make no mistake about it: These three apps are feature-rich, powerful tools for creating and editing Office documents. They look and act like their Office 2013 counterparts on Windows. And although these iPad apps obviously can't replicate every feature of the full desktop programs, they deliver an impressive subset of those features. Anyone who was expecting Office Lite or a rehash of the underwhelming Office for iPhone will be pleasantly surprised.
(Thanks to DaringFireball [daringfireball.com] for the link and summary).
I will download them for sure, but it really puts me off having to use a subscription to use them for editing.
If a thing's worth having, it's worth cheating for. -- W.C. Fields

Best way to trim a sight glass tube?
Got tired of waiting for our savior to save the economy, so I jumped into all grain, What the hell!!!
Glass or polycarbonate?
Polycarbonate cuts easily with just about any saw. Power chop or miter saw is nice and clean but support it from underneath and behind with scrap wood. Wear eye protection. You can also use a hacksaw. Clean it up with sandpaper.
Welcome to BrewHardware.com. I love you.New 100% Stainless Steel Heating Elements are IN! ULWD 5500w Ripple, 2000w, 1500w, etcChugger Pumps, Pump Kits, Camlocks, Sightglasses, Clear USA made Silicone Tubing, RIMS, Electric Install Parts, etc.
How many teeth minimum on the blade for chop saw
Polycarbonate ones from Bargain Fittings.
Thanks I have some real fine tooth saws that will work great. that is what I was thinking but wanted some experienced info first.
Just in case anyone with glass/borosilicate sight tubes reads this, a tile saw will cut them but you should really have some kind of diamond abrasive tool to clean up the edges.
I used a regular copper pipe cutter on mine from Bargain Fittings. Worked great.
tubing cutter worked well for me
Dremel cut off wheel -
Copper tubing cutter cleaned up with a dremel cut off and polishing wheel. I think mine is made of plexi though.
Acrylic would be a touch more brittle than polycarbonate so finer tooth the better. I can cut poly with a crappy old combo blade that came on my Ryobi miter saw and it barely requires any cleanup. Don't go super slow or you'll melt.
Copper tubing cutter is another good idea.

Harman DVC 500- coal dust mess?
I'm thinking of buying a Harman DVC 500 coal stove, does anyone know if there are coal dust problems? If you take care in lowering a bag of rice coal and cut the bottom and pull it out slowley, will there be no dust. Do you have to empty the bucket almost every day? Any help is appreciated. It's cheaper to burn coal but empting heavy dusty watse every day doesn't sound good.Thanks.
I just bought mine too!! After looking at other stoves I decided to purchase the DVC-500. I will pick it up in a few weeks. I almost didn't go with Harman becuase of the phone situation with them. However, I understand the dealer, customer, and Harman's relationship better. The warranty is also great! Three year parts and labor is important on a stove with moving parts.
Hang in there my friends. DJM and I will let you know how it goes. I have 2 tons of rice already stacked on my 3 season porch. Bring on the snow and ice baby. Gotta tell ya, this is one heavy machine, I took off the door and bricks to lighten the load a little as I moved it around. Were gonna do the kitty corner position. Wish me luck.
Rob I think the corner location will be nice. I was thinking of doing that too. However, we may put in between two far windows. Did you get the coal in bags. Is it white ash or red ash coal? How much did the coal cost? I need to build a pad for our stove and coal bin. I'm hoping to have this project done by mid Sept. Good luck.
I paid 195.00 a ton in bags. I went with the coal as not only is the BTU better, but I think coal prices will be stable and i worry about pellets going up as demand passes production. Coal is a lot more work, but to me it's about saving money. I don't know what type it is, rice coal from PA. I bought a stove pad at Lowes for 30.00. Seems a tad small but i'm doing it for now. Make sure you use the 8" terminator, not the 12" one if you have 5" type wide walls, also don't forget 45* that needs to go with it.
I think it would be considered to small, by the standards they ask for so I may bring it back. It only comes out about 6"in front of the stove, 1" on the sides and nothing on the back side. To me, that should be fine, the fire is inside, not in the back or on the sides. Any thoughts, I'm new at this?
The owner's manual says it should have 8 inches on each side, 16 inces inthe front and 1 inch in the back. I may take a ride to Lowes/Depot to see if they have anything. If not I will be building a 4x4 pad constructed of 2x4's, plywoof, cement board and tile. The stove dealers sell them for about $350-$500. It should be worth my time to build one.
Thanks, I brought back the smaller board, and got the larger 48x36 board. It is UL listed. You can find it on Lowes.com under stove board. It was 50.00 and should do just fine. I get a little confused on the 1" from the rear thing? From the main stove, the farthest sheet metal part? If thats the case even this board is to small. Just looked at the picture, looks like from the farthest sheetmetal side so now this goes back. I hate this start up stuff. I guess I'm gonna have to spend 350.00 for a fancy one or talk the wife into cutting the rug and having a friend tile in the correct area flush to the floor.
Talked to my insurance guy. He says some policies do have you answer questions about wood stoves etc. My company does not, being listed as a back up source of heat rather than the only source helped also. So I'll call my friend, have him tile in the correct area flush with our rug (wife finally said o.k) and that nightmare is over.
I just stopped at a gas stove place, keep learning stuff. If you spend that 350.00 to 500.00 on a wood/ceramic hearth pad,don't be putting it over rug. Code in CT says you must cut out the rug area first. On that note, back to the tile guy, much cheaper.
I already knew which stoveboard you were referring to and had originally purchased, but I looked it up online anyways.
We used to call them arco boards. They are the hugest piece of cheap crap sold. Stove shops don't sell them, only hardware stores do because stove shops only sell quality items.Plus, as you found out, you can't even use the small sizes they sell. Hardware stores usually only sell inferior quality woodburning items because they are only looking at a cheap price. All they are is a very thin sheet of metal that covers a thin concrete board. They are very fragile and will dent the first time someone steps on it or the stove is placed on it. I tried those when we first started doing stove installations. I ordered a set via UPS. I had to return them 3 times as each time they came in very damaged. It was more trouble than it was worth and we felt embarrased to have sold such ugly garbage. After that, we only sold the tile boards from American Panel.
I already called the carpet and tile guy. Took the wife to Home Depot and picked up the tile (forgot the groute of course). I gotta tell ya though. I brought the first Lowes stove board home and dragged my 450 Lb stove on it and moved it around, then ended up dragging it off to return it and there were no marks dents or anything? I would say to someone with a smaller size stove that was looking for the sheetmetal protection it was o.k. I also think they make a good stand up wall board to deflect heat. What i'm doing now is waiting for the 45* angle pipe to come in, then I'll cut my walls, install the pipe, set the stove to mark where it has to go, mark out the proper inches away from the stove, remove the stove, call the rug and tile guy, put it back, find some sort of strong gate for the little one, bolt it down because he's strong as all heck, fire that baby up. Thanks for all your inputs, will return for sure to answer the first question. DVC 500 dust mess?
Finally some good info was sent to me and here it is------You will have no problems with the stove. It is a good unit and really puts out the heat! The only thing I dont like is that you have to empty the ash from it about every third day. I'm told that with wood pellets you can go forever before you have to empty. I start my stove in mid November and it burns until mid March. There is no dust with the coal as it is washed prior to being packaged in 40# bags and is usually still damp when you load it. Occasionally if a bag is damaged and has a small hole in it some "black water" might drip out onto the floor while loading but it does not stain if you wipe it up early. The "brand" coal I burn is Blaschalk from PA.
Hope it helps.
I loaded 2 bags of rice coal in the stove and fired it up. It was a little hard to start, follow the rules and it will work. I used pellets and a long flame lighter. The stove fresh paint smell was real bad, you need to burn that off at a time when it's o.k to open windows. Bottom line, no coal dust if coal is washed and bagged. Gave off super heat.
Yes!! That is true! I had to be careful with the stove on the pad while cutting the hole. I was afraid of cutting it too big! I almost did on the bottom of the chimney, it was close. The hardest part was refitting my vinyl siding to the house. I will post pics over the weekend!This is a great stove!
Here are my pics. When my youngest one gets older I'll drop the gate.
Here is a link that might be useful: Stove pics
I learned on the coal users forum, http://www.nepadigital.com/bb/index.php that the DVC 500 is a very controlled burn system, without the need for a barometric damper.
I also learned that most people prefer the Blaschak brand of rice coal, for the amount of heat and because it is washed 3 times before being bagged.
Most insurance companies merely specify that everything must be UL approved and installed according to UL specifications.

LOL<quoted text>
We will remember that answer when the overturn of Prop 8 is ruled unconstitutional
That is not even a concern at this point. The ruling they will make is obvious.
The question it will it be the narrow ruling that only affects California, or the wide ruling that strikes down such measures in all states.
If you asked me 3 weeks ago I would have put money on the narrow ruling, but after the activities of the last couple of weeks, I would no longer make that bet.

Agile Business eBook Excerpt - Agile Steering
Posted Date:
Working on large, complex projects in dynamic markets with new technology and uncertainty is today's reality. With rapidly changing business conditions, how do you know you're focused on the most valuable work? And how do you accurately answer pressing questions about what you'll deliver to the business, when, and at what cost?
The secret is to plan for change and plan to learn as we plan our products -- to dynamically steer our organizations rather than develop a static plan and hope for the best. Download this excerpt to build flexible and transparent processes allowing for frequent change in response to shifting conditions. It'll also help you understand the very real cost associated with not adopting a dynamic set of practices.
Topics include:
The five levels of Agile planning
Agile portfolio steering
Funding and accounting in an Agile world
Planning releases and tracking progress
Landing Page Body

'Keeping abreast of rules and regulations help one tackle any kind of situation and handle issues with ease'
Every person should be aware of the Consumer Awareness and Consumer Protection Act and know their rights to avoid any kind of exploitation and fight for justice in case they find anything wrong with the goods they have bought, said Senior Civil Judge and District Legal Services Authority secretary K. Surya Rao.
Addressing the students at a seminar on consumer and legal awareness organised by Oxford Talent School in association with Consumer Protection Council on Tuesday, Mr. Surya Rao said the subject should be taught in all the schools.
"Ignorance leads to exploitation. If you are aware of the rights available and understand the Law, it will be easy to follow legal protocol during emergencies. Keeping abreast of the rules and regulations help one tackle any kind of situation and handle issues with ease," he said.
He gave away booklets covering various topics such as Consumer Protection Act, human rights, cyber crime, Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, Right to Information Act, and Right to Education, among others to Principal of the school P. Ananda Rao.
'Legal aid club'
He also advocated 'legal aid club' at the school where a group of four representatives (three students and one teacher) work as a team to help address all sorts of legal matters through DLSA. "The petition can be handed to any of these representatives and the issue will be looked into by DLSA," he added.
Senior sales officer of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited M. Babji presented a live demonstration on how to use LPG while cooking and briefed about the safety measures to be followed during emergencies.
Secretary of Consumer Protection Council P.K. Lingeswara Rao, president in-charge of District Consumer Forum K.V.R. Maheswari and member of District Legal Services Authority L.V. Ramani participated in the programme.

Great sex positions are ones that are comfortable, let you do what you want (by yourself or with partners), and don't take away from your experience of sexual pleasure. Test your sex positions knowledge with our sex positions quiz or read on to learn more about spooning sex positions.
Lying on your side you are facing away from your partner (if you're the one being penetrated) or facing your partners back (if you're doing the penetrating). Usually there will be some overlapping of arms and legs in this position.
Variations of Spooning Positions:
If you like the idea of this position, think about how it will be most comfortable for you.
If you are penetrating your partner, you might want to be lower down then them on the bed. Use your hands and arms to spread apart or lift up one of their legs. In another variation, the partner being penetrated can curl up a bit, exposing their bum and/or vagina. The "scissors" position is another variation on side-by-side.
View illustrated spooning sex positions.
Pros of Spooning Sex Positions:
* This position offers a lot of physical contact for the person doing the penetrating.
* For people with hip problems this position can be very comfortable and allow for longer, slower penetration.
* This position does not allow for a lot of leverage for thrusting and both partners may feel like they have less movement and freedom.

"About ESRI "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I have been working at Esri
Flexible work schedule.
Hardware, software resources provided to do your job.
Best place to work, from technical standpoint, if you are interested in GIS.
Growth depends on personal interest. ESRI will make limited effort in pushing you to do better. Managers get to attend all kinds of conferences, whether they really need to or not, but employees that actually use technology in day to day work are often ignored.
Horrible pay rates.
Upper level management oblivious to middle management's whims, partial behavior based on nationalities, mis-treatment of employees.
Need better middle level managers that have professional experience and know how to handle people, issues they face and don't treat people like machines. ESRI has managers who were originally programmers, are partial to people they themselves hire, even to people from certain regions of the world and like to focus on only 1 aspect of software development and ignore everything else. Many of them are unable to resolve people related issues and allow dissatisfaction to fester and at times, grow. Favoritism plays an important role if and when inter-personnel issues are resolved.
So, you seem oblivious to middle management's whims, partial behavior based on nationalities, mis-treatment of employees. Above is rampant in some teams, not all. Yet, no reason why you can't see this. There is no mechanism in place for employees to express dissatisfaction about middle management. if you do express yourself in this area, you risk getting fired or removed from important projects based on cooked up reasons.

I have been working at EsriPros
If you want to work at a place that allows you to "coast" then this is th place. ESRI is a good place for a technologist and a GIS person. If you enjoy developing custom software or products, this is the place. The place is filled with lifers who have been in very similar positions for a long long time which really says something about the company.Cons
ESRI is refusing to grow up. Jack has surrounded himself with yes men/women. Jack's willingness to change and adapt with the times. Take the logo for example - it is so prehistoric. The company wants to go big time, but with the current senior management there isn't a way to get there. Not enough opportunities for talented business people. It is all about the technology and Jack's yes men/women. No career growth opportunities. No sales commissions, no bonuses. If you work very hard or you just coast, you get about the same recognition.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Get your act together or lost talent. Grow up. Support your employees and embrace change. Can't continue to be Jack and Laura's little business with the number of employees and vision the company has to grow.Doesn't RecommendNo opinion of CEO

Fun place to work if you love GIS or software development. The company's size and market penetration helps getting a lot of opportunities and feet in the doors. Some departments are more bleeding edge than others.
Good 401K profit sharingCons
The company really likes to penny and dime their employees to a point where it probably costs the company more money in processes than the company saves. You rarely feel appreciated by the company. No bonuses, very rare (and cheap) company parties. Not much social life in general. Jack puts a big emphasis on equal opportunity for all employees, meaning you don't get any extra pats for doing an extra good job, because it's "unfair" to other employees.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Stop holding your staff and their work back with long processes, justifications, politics and CYAs.RecommendsNo opinion of CEO

WANTED: Seed For Containers/Arbor

Now that I've got my perennials (mostly) figured out, I find myself still in need of container annuals, e.g. : petunias, geranium, begonia, snapdragons (especially Twinny!), calendula, pansy, gazania. The more unusual the better. I'm also very interested in sweet peas - the flower, not the veg. lol - to use with an arbor.
I've updated my trade list; feel free to browse around and see if you find anything interesting. Perennials figured out or not, I'm still up for trades with anything on my list. I never met a flower I'd say no to. : )

Sochi Winter Olympics: Mayor of Host City Says 'No Gays Live Here'
MOSCOW -- The mayor of Sochi, which will host the Winter Olympics next month, said in a TV interview that there are "no gays" living in his city, emphasizing that gay visitors are welcome at the Games as long as they "respect the law."
Anatoly Pakhomov, a Kremlin loyalist and member of ruling party United Russia, told the BBC that gay visitors to Sochi, where the Olympics open Feb. 7, were welcome as long as they did not "impose their habits on others."
In a preview clip for an interview due to air Monday evening on the British public broadcaster, the mayor suggested that Sochi did not have a gay community and that homosexuality was not part of the culture of the Caucasus, the southern Russia region in which the city is located.
PHOTOS: 'Duck Dynasty's' Phil Robertson and Other Stars Who've Made Anti-Gay Remarks
When asked by a BBC reporter who had visited a gay bar in the city whether gay people had to "hide their sexuality in Sochi," the mayor said, "Our hospitality will be extended to everyone who respects the laws of the Russian Federation and doesn't impose their habits on others."
Added the mayor: "We say it is your business, it's your life. But it's not accepted here in the Caucasus where we live. We do not have them in our city."
The preview clip then shows the reporter, John Sweeney, challenging the mayor's claim. The mayor responds by saying: "I am not sure, but I don't bloody know them."
Sweeney visited a gay bar the night before talking with the mayor, finding a community unwilling to go on camera and cautious about talking with journalists.
PHOTOS: Gay Marriage, or Not, in Global Cinema
A drag queen called Madame Zhu-Zha said the city, like many in Russia, had a gay community that many don't dare talking about.
"There are very many clubs for gay people in Moscow," the drag queen told the BBC. "In Sochi, we have two gay clubs. In some places there's serious prejudice against gay people. In others it's not as bad."
The International Olympics Committee has been urging Russian president Vladimir Putin to ensure there is no discrimination against homosexual people during the Winter Games.
Last year, Russia passed laws banning the promotion of "non-traditional" sexuality to people under the age of 18, which drew protests from many celebrities, including Elton John, Madonna and Hollywood folk.
John posted latest comments on his web site last week, stating that he had met gay and lesbian people in Moscow who had told him of physical and verbal abuse they encountered from others encouraged by the anti-gay law.

rainwater collection...ideas/questions
OK, we all know about rain barrels, collect rainwater from your roof via your downspouts.
However...can it get more elaborate? If you have a walkout basement, and your back porch is the "low point", theoretically, a lot of your property's runoff would go there. Why not put a drain in your porch that runs into an underground storage tank?
Or, if your property slopes downward to a low point, put a drain there that would collect the runoff for use later? That way, all the water and soil nutrients that run off can be "recaptured" for your own use!
You might not want to bathe in it, but for irrigation it might work quite well!
However...even as I brainstorm, I have some potential issues:
1. Dirt. Runoff has dirt in it from your lawn, garden, etc. Dirt that can clog up distribution pipes, hoses, irrigation systems, etc. Can an effective filtering system be made to remedy this? Not to mention potential chemicals like fertilizer...but again, I'm saying not to bathe in it. It would be to go right back onto the plants it ran off of to begin with when a dry spell hits.
2. Moving the water. Gutter water naturally flows down with gravity. If you're collecting water from the low point in your yard, you may have to pump it back UP somehow to a tank on another part of the property.
Am I on to something here?? Or...has it been done?
I've thought about this. It seems that it would - A - be VERY expensive and B - you'd need a pretty big tank that would either have to be very ugly above ground, or strong enough (read: expensive) to reside underground...which would make unclogging it pretty hard once that need arose...and it would.
I read about a college campus in, I think, Wyoming with a 40,000 gallon storage tank. Probably just rooftop rain, but it's a decent amount.
When I did the math, that almost doesn't seem worthwhile. A 1" watering over an acre is about 22k gallons. A college campus of many acres...you'd use that water in one irrigation cycle...and a place like WY doesn't get enough rain to replenish that very quickly.
You have a great idea but it has been around since the Romans or even earlier. The system you are describing is a cistern catchment system. It is used in Bermuda because they have very little ground water. Many mountain homes collect water to runoff into an elevated tank. Before systems that used pumps, surface water was collected and bucketed up for use from the cistern or well. The expensive part is pumping to where you want it used and the cost of making the storage cistern.

If you were using DH, you could have used a monument for each capital... It would have been much more elegant than this imvho.
I did already a mod with just one Monument
but that got to boring so I decided to make complete cities
It certainly looks nice. You really should make something for DH, and you can even have it patched into the game if developers like it. Which they seem to do
the single monuments still exist as files so it would be no problem to move them into DH
but cities look much better and as long the monuments are on the river layer in the game, their position wont change if the capital change imagine Big Ben on Scapa Flow

The Kings absorbed a setback in their quest for the Pacific Division title and No. 3 playoff seeding when they were passed by the onrushing Phoenix Coyotes on Friday and tumbled to seventh in the Western Conference standings with one game left in the season. The Coyotes vaulted into the division lead with a 4-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues, improving their record to 41-27-13 for 95 points. The Kings (40-27-14) have 94 points entering the conclusion of their home-and-home series against the Sharks at San Jose on Saturday, the final game of the NHLs regular season. The Sharks dropped to eighth Friday. Goaltender Mike Smith was sensational Friday for the Coyotes, who have won four consecutive games. The first-period goal he yielded to Patrik Berglund was the first scored against him in 234 minutes 25 seconds and ended a streak of 161 consecutive saves, an NHL record. The Coyotes end their season Saturday against the Wild in Minneapolis. Courtesy of Kings stats guru Jeremy Zager...

American Conservatives Publically Admire Russian Anti-Gay Bill
July 1, 2013 by HRC staff
Post submitted by David McCabe, HRC Digital Media Intern
With the recent passage into law in Russia of an anti-LGBT provision, American right-wing groups are looking to the country as a beacon of hope for their discriminatory agenda, reports the Associated Press.
"You admire some of the things they're doing in Russia against propaganda," Austin Rose, the president of the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute, told the wire service, using the coded term for any material that mentions LGBT rights.
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the law on June 29. The measure makes it illegal to distribute any information to minors that references same-sex relationships in a positive way. It has also become illegal to equate gay and straight relationships, according to Gay Star News. Many equality advocates fear that the vague wording of the bill will enable more widespread discrimination against LGBT Russians and those perceived to be LGBT.
This is not the first time that Russia has attracted the attention of American evangelicals. Scott Lively, a Massachusetts-based right-wing activist, traveled to Russia in 2007. He told the AP that he advocated for many of the policies that were included in the bill.
Peter LaBarbara, a conservative activist who protested outside of HRC's Washington, D.C. office building, earlier this summer, also voiced his approval of the bill.
"Russians do not want to follow America's reckless and decadent promotion of gender confusion, sexual perversion, and anti-biblical ideologies to youth," he said.
