From Wikipedia: "The gardens opened in 1828 as the private Royal Belfast Botanical Gardens. It continued as a private park for many years, only opening to members of the public on Sundays prior to 1895. Then it became a public park in 1895 when the Belfast Corporation bought the gardens from the Belfast Botanical and Horticultural Society. The Belfast Corporation was the predecessor of Belfast City Council, the present owner."
Please enjoy this series of panoramas of the Belfast Botanic Gardens on a Spring evening in April. The park is very popular for all sorts of activities and events, such as concerts, or just relaxing.
There are 24 panoramas in total, some yet to be uploaded. These should hopefully be accepted for display in Google earth, so you can fly over the park, then fly down to ground level to check out the view.
I will be adding more later of the interior of the Palm House and other areas
For more information on the Botanic Garden, see Wikipedia:
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

What this means for the Rule of Law in Russia is perfectly clear: there are laws against hooliganism there and they are enforced. The Rule of Law is doing fine in Russia, thank you. Would that I could say the same about my own country (Spain).

What this means for the Rule of Law in Russia is perfectly clear: there are laws against hooliganism there and they are enforced. The Rule of Law is doing fine in Russia, thank you. Would that I could say the same about my own country (Spain).
So I'm reading The Guardian when come across this article by Simon Jenkins and just couldn't believe my eyes - http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/aug/21/west-hypocrisy-pussy...
Not everything is lost after all. Like I've said before, the number of rational and thinking people in the West is increasing steadily, now that more information is becoming available, thanks to internet. It will be more difficult to show Russia as some sort of evil empire. Of course, anti-Russian troll force is still in force.
Wow. That's the dumbest article I've read all day.
That's the deepest comment I've read all day. Care to elaborate on it further?
Ok, for one, the "Artists can look after their own" bit. What does that even mean? Political speech shouldn't be protected if it's made by artists? Similarly, I don't remember Johnny Rotten either being all that political or, for that matter, getting years in prison for what he said, so the comparison is pretty stupid.
Either way, the article is a series of strawman arguments throughout, as it pretends that the outrage is because of the length of the sentence, as if Americans or Brits were opposed to anyone being in prison for more than two years for any crime. The problem, however, isn't that they got two years, but that they got two years for, essentially, disturbing the peace and saying political statements that the ruling regime didn't like. A week in jail and a small fine seems much more appropriate.
Later in the article he uses another strawman argument when he goes on about whether "words can never hurt". Nobody is claiming that; incitements to violence, for instance, are not protected speech nor should they be. He then uses yet another specious comparison to a rock group invading Westminster and insulting minorities. While I personally think that Britain is wrong to make that kind of thing a crime, it's certainly dumb comparison. Pussy Riot wasn't a bunch of skinheads attacking a minority, but a group insulting and attacking the leadership of the state and the church. Am I supposed to believe that Putin was intimidated by their song? I suppose he cried himself to sleep that night in fear. *rolls eyes*
The article does raise good points regarding how insane many of the sentencing rules are in both the UK and the USA, but that point can be made without pretending a kind of moral relativism to the Pussy Riot sentencing. Last I checked, nobody in either country had been arrested recently for saying that Obama or Cameron are terrible and should step down.
I don't think I even agree with his argument vis-a-vis the riot sentences, but to compare the "injustice" of giving people prison time for rioting, stealing, murdering, or destroying property with that of giving people prison time for political speech is pretty gross.
That's really sad. Pussy Riot should have a right to protest the government if they want to. In the United Sates we behave like that a lot, hooliganism or not, and we all think countries which ban hooliganism are fascist states. It was a totally harmless gesture of insubordination, if anything I think the band's religious rhetoric is justified by this unreasoned act of repression on the part of the Putinists. Besides, they're just too cute to jail!
Maybe they could deport them to the US so that they could sing in churches over there? Vote yes.
Oh really? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AdDLhPwpp4
I don't think these students share your opinion...
Or what about this freedom loving, liberty respecting citizen who was expressing his freedom of speech? - http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/21/politics/washington-obama-threats/index.html
I doubt he will be sharing your opinion behind prison bars.
Dear Sir,
Hell yeah! I wish the RF would deport them to the US. They're cool!
Consider the case of American rap music: is it free speech, hate speech or insurrectionism? I just want you to consider how loosely freedom of speech can be interpreted in the US. Musicians commonly use words and themes which musicians can get arrested for in Russia:
Shaky Jim
Threats aren't protected speech, nor is an incitement to violence. What happened in Russia, however, was clearly political speech. If Pussy Riot had sung, "we are going to kill Putin and the Patriarch" that'd be one thing, but they didn't. They simply denounced them as corrupt. If any political speech should be protected, it's political speech, since without that we might as well not have the rest, either.
I don't think the Russians are angry with Pussy Riot making political speeches, they are angry because it was done in clearly illegal manner - in one of the main churches of Russia, something that is very holy to many Russians. After all, Pussy was not not arrested for many of their previous "concerts", it's just that at this point they have clearly crossed the line.
Maybe Putin could arrange their transfer to your town.
Russian cock-up or Russian conspiracy, I will vote the later though the former must sound more appealing to Pussy Riot.
During this female punk group's antics in the Moscow cathedral, a building that was demolished by Stalin and rebuilt by Yeltsin, they sang an anti-Christian song that included the words:
"Shit, shit, the Lord is shit"
If a group of whites invaded a mosque in say Britain and sang "God is shit" to the worshippers present they would be promptly arrested - and the chattering classes would be outraged.
The perpetrators would be called racists, Islamophobes and right-wing extremists, and probably jailed for 10 years.
But since the target in this case was the Russian Orthodox Church and a Russian president unpopular in Western liberal circles, Western politicians and journalists are ecstatic and praising these female scatterbrains and attention-seekers as heroes and martyrs in the cause of freedom.
Once again, we are being treated us to a sickening display of double standards, cowardice and pathological hypocrisy,.
"Shit, shit, the Lord is shit"
what you are doing is spreading lies, there is now such statement in the song, period
So, who's spreading lies, dmitry?
You are spreading lies and your page is not found.
Now is my turn to ask you, why are you spreading lies?
you don't want to backtrack you lies? why are you spreading lies? Are you a payed commentator?
"Crap, crap, this godliness crap!" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pussy_Riot
Look here Dmitry, maybe the English language is a bit of a challenge for you, I do not know, and frankly I couldn't give a monkeys.
It took me two seconds on the internet to find the anti-christian lyrics of this despicable and offensive group.
But that's not the point.
The point is that you have bankrupted yourselves and your economies are on the verge of collapse. You have now turned rabid and are looking for countries that you can loot, sack and destroy.
I am sorry but this is no longer the Russia led by a drunk Yeltsin that you looted and destroyed.
It is simply not going to happen, "Dmitry".
The point is that
Look, mate I caught you lying, that is the point.
Now the question is why are you doing this? Are you a payed troll from nashi movement?
It's "paid", innit mate?
Howz da wever in Londonograd? or iz it Brooklyn / Tel Aviv, innit?
I accept your answer as positive, but the problem is there is not enough stupid people to believe your filthy lies, troll.
No, people everywhere are awake to your little nefarious aims.Nobody believes your evil stinking propaganda anymore.
Go to any news article and read the comments. MSM is for entertainment that's it.
You fools who destroyed Russia are attempting to steal money from children and the elderly and to give it to your gambling criminals-just like during the drunkard Yelstin's time. The limits of your economic crimes have reached, you are printing money like Zimbabwe for your little ponzi scam.
You will not succeeded this time.
you, stinking putin's foot cloth, you write this whole garbage and lies financed by Russia's tax payers money, do you? *rhetorical*
Don't get your knickers in a twist,
You are also stupid as you just confirmed you are putin's troll, your did it self!
I'd say Putin's showing a complete loss of control. Far from showing strength, it shows an incredible weakness. To think people feel threatened by this.
It so reminds me of when the British jailed the Rolling Stones - Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel?
What makes you think Putin feels threatened by this? You should support baseless statements. Sure, he undemocratically has manipulated the system to stay in power, that doesn't mean he has his hands in everything that happens in Russia. Surely he has better things to do than get personally involved in the trial of a bunch of immature, rude young women who the Western media is trying to portray as martyrs? If anyone is showing weakness here, it's media sources who have tried to use smoke and mirrors to portray a rather standard trial into some kind of Stalinest show trial aimed at silencing a band that nobody in Russia knows or cares about. If they actually told the whole story, nobody would care and it wouldn't be news.
OK, you're right. If you think he had no hand in his trial. And, I've no evidence to support the view that he did.
In that case, it's the judicial system that's weak (rather than Putin) in thinking it had to make an example of a band which - as you say - nobody knows or cares about. Yes, they're immature. That's not a crime. If it was we'd all be in trouble!
The issue for me simply is that the punishment is disproportional to the crime.
(And if it's not Putin, then the situation in Russia is even worse than it seems!)
Right, they weren't being tried for immaturity, but if they acted maturely, they probably wouldn't have pulled the stunt in the first place and wouldn't have offended half of the country, which is what lead to them being tried. Most Russians, in my experience, don't care if you say hateful things about the political powers-that-be (at least, they may disagree with you but they don't think that you should be arrested) but they get extremely offended if you are disrespectful to the Church, even though most of them aren't particularly religious/faithful.
Russia's problems are certainly far more complex that Putin: bribes to policemen/teachers/politicians are common, most domestic business lie about their employees' income to avoid paying higher taxes, the business environment can be quite volatile (which is why certain foreign business like BP would like to get out of it), etc. The judicial system has its problems too, but focusing on Pussy Riot tends to detract from the real cases like Magnitsky. Part of Putin's popularity is due to the fact that under him, most corruption has seen to have gotten better than it was in the Yeltsin era, rather than worse. It's unfortunate: if Putin could be blamed for everything that would be relatively easy to fix. It's a disservice to the Russian people to put so much focus so much on Pussy Riot when there are real problems there that are far more complex.
"Television journalist Tina Kandelaki, who is hardly a Pussy Riot supporter, wrote on her LiveJournal blog, "According to the criminal code of the Russian Empire in 1845, the maximum sentence for actions similar to what Pussy Riot did was three months. In the 21st century, why must they get two years in labor camps?"

I think this following quote could serve the debate in relation with this interview:
"The judicial system has also suffered from the verdict handed down by Judge Marina Syrova. Even prominent lawyer Genri Reznik, who is usually diplomatic in his comments, called the verdict "an absolute discredit to the justice system." In an interview with the Russian News Service, he said, "I'd classify this sentence as a criminal act. As a lawyer, I'm ashamed of this mockery of justice."
The hearing was conducted with many procedural and legal violations, which were obvious even to nonspecialists. The judge refused to hear any of the witnesses for the defense. Out of three psychological and linguistic analyses commissioned by the court, only one was accepted: the one carried out by experts affiliated with the church, which cited decisions made by the ecclesiastical councils of the fourth and seventh centuries."

Lets take a step back here and forget about how we hate Putin-the-bad-guy. Anti-social behaviour is punishable by law in every country. I won't claim to be very knowledgeable on a subject, but the UK legal guidance on anti-social behaviour suggests: "Breach of an Anti-Social Behaviour Order Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (section 1(10)) Maximum Penalty - 5 years imprisonment'; serious harassment - 2 years of imprisonment. Throw in here some elements of a religious hatred offence... Rephrasing someone's famous quote: People are sheep. Mass media is the shepherd... Ta!
You're missing the point. Of course anti-social behaviour is punishable. The issue is about how much punishment is appropriate. Two years prison is disproportianate
In France, you are not allowed to wear masks in public. http://www.english.rfi.fr/europe/20120818-pro-pussy-riot-demonstrators-a...
Will get you arrested.
Over here at the land of the free. Some of the offenses this girls were charged with will get you up to seven years and a place in the sexual offenders book.
Over here at the land of the free. Some of the offenses this girls were charged with will get you up to seven years and a place in the sexual offenders book.
Really? Give me an example of an American who got 7 years for criticizing the government or showing disrespect to a church?
Their charge was "premeditated hooliganism performed by an organized group of people motivated by religious hatred or hostility". The most that would be in the States is trespassing and/or disturbing the peace. That doesn't give you seven years and a sex offender charge.
In February 2004, Khursheda Sultanova, a 9 year old girl was brutally murdered by neo-Nazis who stabbed her repeatedly. When the individuals were finally brought to trial, they were charged not with murder, but will hooliganism. Their sentence upon conviction ranged from 18 months to 5 years; the teenager who killed Khursheda received 18 months.
In February 2012, members of the Russian punk band Pussy Riot protested the increasing authoritarianism of Vladamir Putin's Russia with an improvised performance in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Saviour that was critical of both Putin and the Russian Patriarch, Kirill I. They were also charged with hooliganism when arrested and subjected to a show trial. Their sentence upon conviction was 2 years in prison.
Enough said.
Well said. The girl who was killed was a Chechen . Double standards and racial superiority rear their ugly heads again.
However, singing in a church is disrespectful and probably they should have been fined.
These women desecrated the high altar of a cathedral with their antipolitcal acts in a vulgar display. They specifially spoke out against the political heirarchy in a manner designed to be rude and rebellous. For this they have received a two year sentence which is the minimum term. They should have known the penality before they acted. But may not have read the law. Russia is simply not the place to perform such theatrics. And I am sure they knew that. It is typical of the press to try to inflame the issue. Theatre it was: wrong stage. My,my, Michael
Agree completely. Here's another example -
The Kurds that rose up against Saddam in 1991 and were massacred en masse, entire villages with poison gas and chemical weapons had desecrated the high altar of his name with their antipolitical acts.
They specifically spoke out against the political hierarchy in a manner designed to be rude and rebellious. Knowing Saddam's Iraq, severe torture would have been the minimum punishment for political dissent.
They should have known the penalty before they acted. But they may not have read the law. Fools. I am sure they knew that - Saddam had shown his people several times what the consequences of disobeying his laws would be.
It is typical of the Western Press to try and inflame the issue.
Pussy Riot sympathisers have burst into a Church service at Cologne Cathedral masks, videos and song book to hand.. They are now charged under Para 167 of the Criminal Code.
Wrong church, wrong confession...but facing three years in jail.
Aw shucks...that evil Putin....has his minions everywhere, don't you know.
it just too late, to fix mr. Putin's image, he is all covered in shit, and he done it all by himself, what an idiot!
One needs to be careful with feeding the public too much bullshit, from Iraq weapons of mass destruction to Putin dictatorship. One day they may stop believing the propaganda.
what is the current price per post for English enabled nashi?
These anti-Putinists fail to realize that the people around the world have their own minds and are able to thinki critically and see what is true and what is anti-Russian propaganda.
Pussy Riot acted the ape in the Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ. The Cathedral was built to the honor and memory of soldiers, who gave their lifes for the freedom and independence of Russia, defending Russia in the war of 1812 year. The Cathedral was built on the personal donations.
If you like Pussy Riot's act, what would you say if the same band of pussies (with intellect at the level of vagina) made their act of protest in the Washington National Cathedral?
What could possibly be a greater desecration to the honor and memory of the countless noble soldiers (and communist dissidents who were tortured or killed) who gave their lives for the freedom and independence of Mother Russia, than the joke that Putin has made of their sacrifice by converting what could have been a true liberal democracy into a de facto dictatorship?
As an atheist I support any and all disruptions of the spreading of religious falsehoods, especially those that are done on behalf of the criminals in the Russian government.
Nice. You manage to be both ignorant AND misogynistic in just a few sentences.
As I've had to write before, the "National Cathedral" in Washington is just the national cathedral for the Episcopal church (the American Anglican Church). They represent a tiny fraction of the country, and the building is in no way a government building. It's just that it's also the nicest, biggest protestant church in D.C. (and the Episcopalians tend to be an inoffensive bunch), so the Cathedral is often used for state funerals of Presidents and the like. It's still a private building with no real connection to the government, though.
To protest there, then, would make little sense. Unlike in Russia, we don't exactly have a big link between the president and the national cathedral. Heck, I doubt many people can even name the head of the Episcopal Church; I doubt many Episcopalians can, to be honest. You really don't know how humorous your comparison is, frankly. The Episcopal Church these days has such a liberal reputation that if we had a situation even vaguely similar to Russia's (effective) one-party state, the church would probably be inviting local bands to perform in the church to protest the government. They certainly wouldn't be pressing for prison time.
Would you believe that Pussy Riot would be allowed to sing an anti-Putin song in the Red Square and get away with it?
In fact, that's what they did on 20th January 2012. On the Red Square in broad daylight they played a nicely rousing song about 'KGB bitches' and 'Putin who is pissing his pants', and there was press around to take photos and video: http://pussy-riot.livejournal.com.nyud.net/8459.html and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqcmldeC7Ec
After that Red Square performance they were briefly detained by the police and then released. No trial, no conviction, no world outrage... nothing.
So, next time their organisers have chosen another venue to make sure there would be headlines "Jailed for singing an anti-Putin song"...
That's how public opinion is manufactured.
Yes, I very much would.
The civilized world approach is to ignore loons as long as they are not breaking or disrupting something.
Well said.
Xarizmat: Well said.
"After that Red Square performance they were briefly detained by the police and then released. No trial, no conviction, no world outrage... nothing"
- You clearly don't understand what free speech is about, so here's a hint -
Freedom of speech IS the freedom to offend. Otherwise even Hitler's Germany or Jong Il's North Korea had freedom of speech - if all that means is saying what those in power like.
You seem to have lived/ to live in a society which is so tyrannical, even the concept of free speech is not understood, let alone free speech being practiced.
No, you don't seem to understand. Obviously, Russia is not an exemplar for political rights in the way that America often is, but that's not his point. If you do any research on Pussy Riot you'll realize that they have a habit of breaking the law and going into places such as shops, high-end restaurants and Red Square and throwing impromptu 'concerts'. Their latest and by-far most offensive one was what they did in the cathedral of Christ the Saviour, which is when they got arrested. They seem to thrive off of pushing the boundaries and trying to get fast and easy publicity for their no-name band. What Xarizmat clearly is saying is that you can whinge about Putin's dictatorship, but if they really were such oppressed political dissidents, they would have been arrested for their stunt on Red Square.
As an American, I agree that freedom of speech must mean the freedom to say things that offend people... but it does not give me the right to run into a church, grab a guitar and yell about how the clergy are a bunch of dopes without regard to the feelings of the nun's and worshippers (mostly babushki) present. Freedom of speech is not an entitlement to intrude on private property and break the law.
Good points all. Let me clarify my position-
If these people invaded private property for their concert - punish them by all means. But two years is far too much, disproportionate and clearly hints that the punishment was meant to teach them and others like them a lesson.
I personally haven't even heard their song and it is most likely that they are artists with little talent trying to garner quick publicity.
But as I've pointed out, in a country where Neo Nazis who murder a little child in cold blood are charged with the same thing as artists who are a nuisance i.e. hooliganism, something is seriously wrong.
As for Putin, you don't have to be Hitler to be a tyrant. Yes, they weren't arrested at Red Square but my guess would be that Putin would've loved to but he still cares dearly about global opinion - in a way that someone as nutty as Kim Jong Il never would. And that stayed his hand. Not out of some benevolence or even fear of internal discontent. The man rules the country as virtual dictator.
I personally have never been able to understand how a country that produced so many brilliant mathematicians, writers, chess players and scientists can never have had a decent and even somewhat honest representative government. The Russian people seem to be condemned - first it was the Tsars, then the Communists, and now quite frankly, as the Wikileaks put it, a thugocracy.
They have free speech but not in a Church, synagogue or Mosque, cemetary or school as a private premise with public access and, in this case parodying with foul associations the Trisagion...an ancient and central prayer for Christians everywhere including Egypt, Palestine, EThiopia, Armenia, Iraq and Catholics world wide.
They can say what they damn well like outside but not inside a public sacred space.
Or do you reject my right to take deep offence and I'm not Orthodox.
It is an identity issue and that I can no more shake off than my skin colour.
I agree with most of what you're saying, and really, the length of the sentence has been the primary point of debate. Maybe the sentence is a bit harsh, but having watched videos of both the Christ the Saviour performance and a few others, on youtube and vkontakte, I was personally offended by their juvenile antics and disrespect for other people. I believe they should do jail time and they got the minimum sentence... Russia isn't America, and to be quite honest two years isn't extreme enough for me to be up in arms. If they had to spend 10 years in jail for a juvenile stunt like that I'd be more upset, but two years isn't the end of the world.
I've never heard about that happening to neo-Nazis. It definitely seems within the realm of possibility (I lived in Moscow for three years and heard some crazy legal stories), but I'd like to see a source.
I agree that Putin is a virtual dictator, though I'm not sure I'd concede that everything is as coldly and maliciously calculated as you say. Personally, I think Putin could mostly care less about this trial... he has better things to do, but unfortunately the media turned it into an issue so the foreign ministry has had to respond. But I don't think he is calling the judge every night, or manipulating every aspect of it as some people seem to be implying...
I agree with you that Russians have produced some incredible minds but don't seem able to have a functioning democracy. I'm not exactly sure why, but in my experience the vast populace and the ruling elites tend to exist in separate, exclusive worlds and most Russians have little interest in co-mingling them, possibly because it's often made things worse, and thus most of the country has little interest in politics. Democracy is a group effort... so it's probably not the best government for every country, at least in the current state of the world.
Another hypothetical:
Let's imagine these young ladies as young men....their band "Penis Riot" puts on an identical performance in the same church.
How many would stand up for them? (pun only slightly intended.)
How young and how good looking? Do you imagine even That?
Under the circumstances, I would.
I mean, seriously, the whole trial is ridiculous.
Let's make these imaginary male counterparts to Pussy Riot their equals in attractiveness:
Jack Black, Lemmy from Motorhead, and Carrot Top = Penis Riot
Forget the gender, all of a sudden that name "Penis Riot" doesn't sound so cool.
I base my political convictions on how cool the name of the cause sounds, in fact I have a simple test - the "T-shirt test". It consists of asking - would the name of this cause look good on a T-shirt.
"I support Pussy Riot" - Cool.
"I support Penis Riot" - Not cool.
"I support vegetarianism for animal rights" - Supercool.
"I support any nutritious diet for hungry children" - Not so cool.
See? Get the idea? No, I don't think I would stand up for this group, were they young men.
What if the shirt said "FREE PENIS" and then "riot" in very small letters?
And your other shirts are too wordy. I suggest "Kill The Ones Who Eat Us" on the front, and "Eat The Ones We Kill!" on the back.
Now THAT'S supercool.
I think Penis Riot sounds pretty cool, actually.
Vastly less likely to ever be on album covers, but still pretty cool. (Then again, we do have the Butthole Surfers....)
Regardless, yes... I would stand up for any group that's being sentenced to prison for political speech. That is the most basic of human freedoms, regardless of whether others find if offensive.
And...this could never happen in freedom-loving America?
Imagine, if you will, a band (Let's use SLAYER as an example....and listen to their excellent "South of Heaven" if you need an introduction) barging into St. Patrick's cathedral wearing burlap sacks over their faces and staging an "impromptu performance" on the altar. We'll pretend the song they play is titled "Jesus Christ hates Bloomberg." (Because he almost certainly would.) And let's imagine they film the footage for a video.
Does anyone actually believe that the poor young boys (some of whom have families, even small children) would not find themselves in the stripey hole? I imagine charges such as criminal trespass, disorderly conduct, perhaps even "domestic terrorism" being lodged against these innocent souls, whose breakneck performance lasted less than a minute, after all.
I also imagine they would be charged under "hate crime" statutes.
Poor, poor SLAYER. So persecuted....unfairly denied access to their loved ones and locked up by Bloomberg's "Private Army" (his words) in the gulag known as Riker's Island.
Does this scenario seem fantastic? I think not, but form your own opinions.
You cannot form an opinion on imagined facts! That is why we name it imagination!
My good guess is that the following events would happen:
1. Either the staff will try to kick the band out or call the police
2. If the police comes, they will ask them to come down to the station
3. Either they come peacefully or not
4. If they don't come down peacefully, they will probably be tazed or something, unless they have weapons. Of course, if they have weapons and try to resist the police, then there may be shooting (but not necessarily), but it isn't what happened
5. In any case, after that there would be a relatively fair trial, where I wouldn't expect the punishment to be within years of jail
Isn't Bloomberg Jewish? Why would you break into a Catholic church to decry the association of state and church when the venue and the "victim" aren't even the same religion?
You're nitpicking- it's not a perfect analogy. I simply used Bloomberg for an example because he runs NYC as if he owned it, and he has referred to the NYPD as his "private army." If you prefer, imagine that SLAYER bum-rushed a temple. Happy? Frankly, I don't care if they were protesting child abuse, which is universally abhorrent. If you practice civil (in this case uncivil) disobedience, being locked up is an inherent risk. And they have certainly reaped the rewards as well as the punishment.
In 2002, a couple were arrested for having sex in St. Patrick's Cathedral in NYC. They were arrested for public lewdness and eventually got 7 days of community service. They did not wait for their sentencing in jail for 5 months either. Bloomberg would have intervened had the couple been smoking or eating fried food in the church.
As far as Slayer playing St. Pats, please let me know the date. I hope they open with "Hell Awaits", but that discussion is for a different forum.
Yup. And if 7 days of community service is the sentence for having sex in the Cathedral, then imagine how little there would be for making political speech. Ain't no politician in America who has the cojones to try to jail someone for saying that they should step down.
"I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death." ~George Carlin
Good for Russia:
Stop the rot before it spreads. These low lifes may learn a valuable lesson in the penitentiary; regardless, Russian society is spared their hate-filled garbage
There must be something very weak and rotten in the State of Russia when three young ladies, armed with guitars, are looked upon as such a threat to the Church and Nation that they must be imprisoned for two years. Most of all it looks like Mr. Putin now has fully developed what we through history have seen in men who have got their position in an unjust way: Traces of paranoia and a pathologic fear of any kind of opposition. Above all, Mr. Putin is paving the way to his own exit.
Very rotten indeed, considering also that one of the girls crossed herself in a very orthodox fashion! But wait a minute: was not the church totally infiltrated by the kgb of yore, such as the reality of faith could be inverted?
Pussy Riot were not jailed for anything anti-Putin. In fact, they performed an anti-Putin song on Red Square in january, and were not put on trial for that. http://pussy-riot.livejournal.com.nyud.net/8459.html
They are in prison for essentially a 'hate speech' crime, offending sensitivities of the believers. Same laws exist in the UK, and they protect Muslims and homosexuals from intimidation, for example. In the UK in 2010 a guy was given 2 years suspended jail term and 100 hours unpaid work sentence for --listen to this -- posting anti-religion cartoons on a wall in Liverpool's airport praying room. The chaplain was offended and disturbed -- so the guy was taken to court...
'suspended' unlike the pussy riot members who *will* spend two years in prison. Plus...singing and defacing a wall (and someone's property) are two different things.
So... Pussy Riot was "intimidating" the Russian Orthodox Church when they asked for Putin and the Patriarch to resign? I'm sure all 150 million Russian Orthodox faithful were deeply, deeply terrified by the event, which must have been exactly like a pogrom for them. *rolls eyes*
"Hate speech" (which, personally, I don't think should be a crime, and never could be in the United States) isn't saying something about a religious organization that you disagree with, but about attacking a group in a racist/homophobic/etc way. Pussy Riot wasn't saying that someone should kill all the Orthodox believers, only that Putin and Kirill are thieving thugs (which they are). Either way, among the worst things about such laws as they exist in Europe is that they allow authoritarian regimes to stifle actual political speech and claim that they're just doing what the West does, hoping that nobody pays enough attention to know the difference. Looks like it works, too.
We didn't need this punk band to know that Putin is a psycho leader who kills to keep rule and many Russians are more brainwashed than even the Chinese.
I think you underestimate how much you are brainwashed by your own government, (I'm presuming you're american).
Yeah sure. You won't find more different opinions about one topic than in America. The US is the least brainwashed society. Just look at what people say about Romney and Obama. You won't get that in any other country in the world. But have fun thinking you aren't brainwashed.
I'm certain that I have been brainwashed.
Seems you got no idea what Russian media says about Piutin. Obama would not dream about this in his worst nightmare. If to mention critical minds then Russians are on the top of the list. You speak as someone who knows very little about this country and it's people. It is funny to watch US and UK shouting about luck of freedom in Russia, they could not dream about one the Russians got. This freedom is not sencored or limited, no one speaks so badly and so openly about their country as Russians do! no country uncovers it's problems as Russia does and this trial is just another prove to this.

I know what the Russian media says about Putin; it is easy to predict when United Russia controls the vast majority of it (I lived in Russia for SEVEN YEARS and not once did I see a serious expose which was critical of Putin).
When you talk about "freedom" in Russia, what exactly are you going on about? Do you mean chaos and disorder? If so, you are correct: Russians have all the freedom in the world to litter, drive like maniacs, ignore rules and laws at their discretion (or at least at the distance they happen to be from militisia), and so on. However, it would be a stretch to view those as positive results of "freedom".
DManya is either just another Nashi being paid to post propaganda, or else it just backs up something I've thought for a while, namely that Russians don't understand what we mean when we talk about freedom. If he actually believes what he says, than that is very, very sad (and tragic for Russia).

Take the L and start looking to holler at another shorty ASAP.QFT
I keep telling y'all. When you spread your seed everywhere, you won't even stress about which shorties you bag and which you don't unless she's like the illest female you ever talked to. But even then, smashing one of your pieces will ease that pain. Like, "damn, I messed up with that 10, but at least I'm still smashing this 8.5."
Think about it like this....A successful farmer doesn't plant one seed and wait for it to grow into a full size tree, then taste the fruit.....and THEN plant another seed. A successful farmer throws seeds everywhere. Next thing you know, he's got himself a whole orchard. Some trees grow better than others. Some fruit is better than others. But at least he has a variety to choose from in the even that some of his crop ain't up to par. Feel me?
So, talk to as many women as possible. Your seed is your charm...your charisma...your character..your look...your smell...how you carry yourself.. Throw that seed at women. It might bounce off a lot of women, but it'll also land and take root on a lot of women. Now you have options. You gotta water those plants. Feel me? You gotta make that plant grow. In other words, make that interest grow. If one plant dies, big deal. You got 5-10-20 more other plants that are watered and ready to go. Feel me? Do I have to go deeper into this analogy?
STOP SIMPING OVER ONE GIRL AT A TIME! When you're single, diversify your bonds! Then when you're ready.....When you're READY...then focus on one girl.

What is Peanut Butter?
Our Peanut Butter is ultra pure, made simply from 100% natural roasted peanuts. Unlike standard peanut butter, TPW™ Peanut Butter contains absolutely no added sugar or salt. Furthermore, it is produced right here in the UK and comes in Simply Smooth and Super Crunchy versions. Peanut Butter has an incredibly versatile nutritional profile and is popular with people looking to lose fat. It's widely considered to be one of nature's best sources of protein, carbs and healthy fats.
Why is Peanut Butter Healthy?
TPW™ Peanut Butter has a high content of heart healthy mono and polyunsaturated fats that have been shown to help with everything from cardiovascular health to fat loss. It is also hugely popular with those dieting since the healthy fats, coupled with its nutrient dense nature, mean as little as one teaspoon can help curb cravings and keep you fuller for longer. Peanut Butter from THE PROTEIN WORKS™ is so calorie and nutrient dense, it's considered by many to be the healthiest and most effective way to achieve this calorie surplus, rather than trying to create a calorie surplus through junk food.
Should I Include Peanut Butter in my Diet?
Whether on your desk at work or in the kitchen cupboard at home, TPW™ Peanut Butter is a great addition to anyone's diet who requires high quality protein in their diet. It's certainly a big favourite here at TPW™ Towers and we think you'd be hard pressed to find a tastier source of protein in your diet.
Which is Better? Crunchy or Smooth Peanut Butter?
The truth is both kind of peanut butter are great. That's why we have created two versions of our Peanut Butter for you to choose from depending on whether you prefer yours Simply Smooth or Super Crunchy. Our Peanut Butter is packed in a re-sealable plastic tubs for ease of storage and more importantly, to ensure your Peanut Butter remains fresh once opened.
Why is Your Peanut Butter The Best?
Here at TPW™, you can have supreme confidence in the product quality and supply source. Each ingredient supplier must pass rigorous audits and checks before being given the TPW™ quality seal of approval.
How is Your Peanut Butter Made?
Traceability, quality, and consistency are the three things we demand on every single ingredient. This is our philosophy that flows through every product we manufacture and sets us apart in the world of sports nutrition today. Click on the Product Profile to see full product information for your absolute peace of mind.
Q. What is TPW™ Peanut Butter made from?
A. TPW™ Peanut Butter is made from 100% roasted peanuts with nothing added or taken away.
Q. When should I use TPW™ Peanut Butter?
A. It depends on your lifestyle and goals, we recommend following the suggested serving guidelines.
Q. What are main reasons for using TPW™ Peanut Butter?
A. TPW™ Peanut Butter is so versatile and has such wide ranging benefits that it can be used to promote heart health and aid fat loss
Q. Are there any specific health benefits associated with TPW™ Peanut Butter?
A. Yes absolutely. TPW™ Peanut Butter is best known for promoting heart health and aiding fat loss, however there are many other benefits associated with its high content of unsaturated fats.
Q. Are all peanut butter products the same no matter what brand you use?
A. As with so many things in life, if you don't ask the right questions, you won't get the right answers! The quality of ingredient can vary significantly and therefore the potency will do too. In addition, just because a product may be called pure it doesn't mean that it necessarily is. We recommend you read the ingredients and nutritionals on the label to better understand exactly what you are buying. We can assure you that our products are 100% pure.
Q. What if any side effects will I get from taking TPW™ Peanut Butter?
A. We haven't heard of any nasty side effects from taking TPW™ Peanut Butter.
Q. Can I mix my TPW™ Peanut Butter with other things?
A. Yes absolutely !
Our PEANUT BUTTER is incredibly versatile, you can consume it:
- Simply on its own as a tasty treat to curb cravings
- As an additional ingredient in your shake to make it more nutrient and calorie dense
- Simply as a spread on just about whatever you like (only edible things of course!)
Get some (more) nuts!!!!

TPW - You guys are beautiful!

My only gripe is the last tub I bought was less than half full
The butter is prone to separating so just give it a good stir before use to get the oils back together.

Also just wanted to add that through no fault of The Protein Works I had a few issues with the courier and Dave in Customer Services is "super efficient", replies immediately to messages and sorted to problem with ease - very impressed with the excellent service and will definitely be recommending! :o)
stick your pea nuts in a tub. mash em.
No sugar, salt or oil at a very very competitive price.
I have it almost every day with an apple or in my porridge. I used to buy much less for the same price in various health food stores.
Top quality TPW keep it up!
There's not much to say other than it's got no added sugar and is just pure peanut butter.
It could be a little crunchier though, bigger chunks or slightly less smooth - but that's the only reproach I have.
Good stuff guys.
Super fast delivery AGAIN - don't know how you do it but not complaining! Thanks again TPW
Banana, peanut butter, advanced oats, whey 80 and milk of choice. Try it, it's yummy!!
and such a quick dispatch and delivery.
Perhaps a bit too great tasting though as I went through a kg tub a lot quicker than expected!
Overall great price and great value.

I got the chunky as I love chunky peanut butter, could be more chunks for my taste but it still sticks to the roof of your mouth a treat! over all a great product.
Will be buying again when I eventually run out!
- 1 of 1 people found this review helpful
Fantastic price, so much of it and it tastes great.
Have used to add to shakes and also in cooking e.g. my Choc Peanut Butter Cups & Choc Fudge (not exactly good for the diet but we all need a little treat now and again).
Will only buy this in future!
Tastes great and mixes in with my morning shake really well due to it's slightly runnier texture which is ideal, love it!!!!
I've tried other 100% peanut butters which whilst tasted great often were very very dry almost cakey.
TPW Peanut butter gets a straight up 100% review. Try some

Like the look of the bag & like the shape. However after a month I noticed that the "the sak" sign had fallen off off leaving 2 small holes in the front of the bag..
Friday February 27 2015
This bag is adorable, and it's a great value for a good quality leather bag.....BUT.....the lining does not hold up at all. The lining in the outside pocket went first and the inside followed. I would keep purchasing this bag as a casual staple if it weren't for that flaw.
Thursday October 9 2014
I bought the brown multi snakeskin. Love the colors & size of purse. Very disappointed in snakeskin & brown leather. After a few months snakeskin has rubbed off & the brown is dull. Looks like I have had used the purse for a few years.

Bucs carry hot streak into new division series
Volquez faces Leake, Reds in bid to stay tight in postseason race
The Pirates have helped erase memories of their seven-game losing skid by taking series from the two teams ahead of them in the National League Central in the last week. This weekend, they'll look to improve their playoff resume against a team behind them in the division.
The Reds pay a visit to PNC Park for their final three games in the Steel City this season. Cincinnati, a team whose own playoff hopes have faded fast in the last three weeks, will send Mike Leake to the mound to face fellow right-hander Edinson Volquez on Friday.
Pittsburgh enters the series winners of four of its last six, taking two of three against both the NL Central-leading Brewers and the Cardinals, the first-place team in the NL Wild Card race. The Bucs are two games behind San Francisco for the second Wild Card spot, 2 1/2 games back of the Cardinals and four away from Milwaukee.
"We have a lot of grit," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said of his team after its latest win. "We don't have a perfect club, we don't play perfect, I don't manage perfect. I don't know how many games I've managed, but I haven't managed a perfect one yet. But we play. And we believe in each other, and we trust each other. Wherever the game goes, we're going to go with it."
The Reds, meanwhile, have lost eight of their last 12 games, despite taking two of three from the Cubs in their last series.
Leake pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings against the Braves, working around three walks and two hits as the Reds came through in a 1-0 win last Saturday.
"He threw a lot of two-seamers and cutters and mixed in his slider," Atlanta's Justin Upton said of Leake. "He kept the ball down and was getting some calls down. That gave him some confidence throwing the ball down in the zone, and he just located really well."
Volquez is in search of his 12th win, a number that would be his most since winning a career-best 17 games in 2008 -- the only season he was an All-Star. Volquez, 31, got his 11th win in his last start as he worked around 11 hits in 5 2/3 innings to hold the Brewers to two runs. Volquez was with the Reds for four seasons, and he has a 5.86 ERA and a 1.48 WHIP in five starts facing his former squad.
Volquez lost both starts he made against Cincinnati earlier this season, each at PNC Park. He pitched well against the Reds on April 22, allowing two runs on five hits over seven innings. But he was roughed up on June 18, as Cincinnati tagged him for eight runs on six hits in just 2 1/3 frames.
Pirates: Alvarez unavailable with sprained foot
Pedro Alvarez did not play Wednesday after leaving Tuesday night's game with a sprained left foot.
Alvarez, who transitioned from third base to first base in the past month, injured his foot while diving after a grounder on Tuesday night in the sixth inning. He was replaced defensively in the next frame and wore a walking boot in the clubhouse both Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. Hurdle said after Wednesday's 3-1 win against the Cardinals that Alvarez was unavailable.
Alvarez has made five starts at first base since the position switch, and he has three homers in his last 13 at-bats.
Reds: Getting more time at first, Frazier comfortable
Todd Frazier, the Reds' regular third baseman, has been seeing more time at first base lately. Frazier, along with catcher Brayan Pena, have both been utilized at first in the absence of Joey Votto, who is still recovering from a distal strain in his left quadriceps.
But since rookie Kristopher Negron began to heat up at the plate, manager Bryan Price has been having Negron play more at third and Frazier at first. Frazier started his third consecutive game there in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Cubs, his fourth start at first in five games.
"As a manager, you have to play the guy that's hot and find the right place for him," Frazier said. "If that means moving me to first base, that's awesome. I feel great over there."
Worth noting
• Jay Bruce is 6-for-11 (.545) with a double, a home run and two RBIs in his career against Volquez. Skip Schumaker is 5-for-17 (.294) with three doubles and four RBIs against the right-hander.
• The Reds have shut out the Pirates nine times at PNC Park since 2009. That's the most by any team at any visiting ballpark since then.
• Russell Martin is 10-for-27 (.370) with a double, a homer and six RBIs in his career against Leake. Neil Walker is 11-for-35 (.314) with four doubles, a homer and 11 RBIs against the right-hander.
• In a three-game series against the Cardinals, the Pirates' trio of starters (Francisco Liriano, Gerrit Cole and Jeff Locke) combined to allow just three earned runs in 19 1/3 innings (1.40 ERA), and they had 20 strikeouts and six walks in that span.
