Mena MBR market seen hitting $280m
Dubai, January 12, 2012
The world's largest membrane bioreactor (MBR) systems are likely to be built in the Mena region, and the market is expected to increase at a CAGR of 17.77 per cent to reach $280.30 million by 2015, said a report.
Despite the severe water crisis, the Mena region has been at the vanguard of embracing new technologies, according to an upcoming report on the MBR market in the Mena region by Frost & Sullivan, a growth partnership company.
The most dominant consumer for MBR systems is the commercial segment, which has driven the demand mainly due to urbanisation and real estate sector development in the Mena region.
In the GCC region, the oil and gas sector has been at the forefront of developing advanced treatment systems for wastewater treatment.
The Mena region has also seen installations of capacities greater than 20,000 cu m per day, and more large capacity plants will come up given the acute water stress and strong penchant for water reclamation. The municipal and industrial segments have also seen a notable number of MBR system installations, the report said.
Opportunities for MBRs in this market are substantial, considering the potential for recycle and reuse of grey water (domestic sewage) and industrial effluents. Among all the countries in the Mena region, the UAE market is approaching maturity and is currently stagnant; this is partially due to the economic crisis and infrastructure sector slowdown.
On the other hand, some countries in the region have just begun to commission very small-scale MBR plants, said the report.
"The Mena MBR market is expected to witness a high growth trajectory in the next 5- 10 years on account of large number of projects being commissioned in medium and large range plants with capacity ranging between 5,000 cu m/day and 50,000 cu m/day," said a Frost & Sullivan Environment and Building Technologies Analyst.
"The larger plants are being developed in the UAE and the entire GCC region, while the small to medium range plants are being installed in countries like Algeria, Libya and Iran."
The Frost & Sullivan report indicates that market participants with superior skills in project management, competitive component sourcing, design and engineering have an opportunity to grow.
Key countries to watch out for in the Mena region are Saudi Arabia, Oman, Egypt, Qatar, and Kuwait.
These countries are expanding their existing capacities in the municipal wastewater sector and diversifying their economies with massive industrial expansion, which will bring many opportunities for wastewater treatment companies.
In the quest for sustainable and green growth, the region is also developing smart city concepts, wherein MBRs would play a central role in treating grey/sewage water back to fresh water levels, according to the report. – TradeArabia News Service

Making a Vise Chop for a Benchcrafted Classic
I started making the wooden vise chop for a new leg vise for my Holtzapffel workbench (featured in "The Workbench Design Book") using some crazy new hardware from Benchcrafted: the Classic vise screw and the Crisscross.
The only downside to the Crisscross part of the assembly is that you need a vise chop that is quite thick – 3" is a good thickness. I don't have any maple in my shop that thick, so I laminated the vise chop from two 1-3/4"-thick slabs of soft maple.
I prefer soft maple (whenever possible) because it's cheaper, easier to work and (in my experience) more likely to be figured. Plus, few people can tell the difference between soft and hard maple. They are both plenty hard.
After laminating up my chop, however, I realized I'd made an error. I used hide glue to laminate the chop instead of yellow glue. The problem is that I have a SawStop, which has flesh-detecting technology. Even when hide glue is fully cured, it sets off the Saw Stop. It's like having a little layer of hot dog inside.*
So I'll have to finish shaping the chop with a handsaw or a band saw.
— Christopher Schwarz
* This is a total lie. It's actually like having a layer of horsemeat inside your lignum. Wait. Aren't hot dogs horsemeat? And fly parts? I forget. Oh, and hide glue doesn't set off your SawStop, either.

I believe that's still considered text. Escher was known to draw unadorned dodecahedrons and such, so it still works for me, although the D&D angle is less obvious.
I love this! I'd love it even more on a colored shirt...

I'm really glad you got your resub in during the early part of the derby - it would have sucked to not have a chance because of a late submission due to the rejectionator on your prior entry. Well done! Love the colors too.

Yes. Squirrels have known this for years, so they hoard acorns not only for food but as a preventative measure. Phoenixes have a terrible habit of burning down squirrel homes.
You have to set it on fire just the right way though.

Paul Maholm and Reed Johnson Traded to Atlanta Braves (UPDATES: Oh My. Vizcaino. Yes.)
Obviously this trade became much bigger as the evening went on. See below for updates.
In tonight's game, Reed Johnson was pulled in the 5th inning (of a blowout), and was spotted shaking hands with his teammates in such a way as to suggest that he'd been traded.
We don't know much of anything quite yet – nothing is confirmed – but I'll updating as the details come out.
Johnson has value as a bench bat to just about any playoff contender, but he has even more value to the Cubs as an included piece in a bigger deal. We'll see if this is a one-off type move, or if Johnson is part of a bigger deal.
If Reed has indeed been dealt, his presence will be missed. He's a great teammate, and a 100% effort guy. But dealing him is the right move.
UPDATE: Bruce Levine reports that this is, indeed, probably a trade, and up to four teams submitted offers today. Pittsburgh and Detroit were among the suitors. That report, by the way, suggests this is a one-off deal, rather than a larger trade.
UPDATE 2 (at 9:10pm CT): Dave Kaplan says Johnson is meeting with Cubs' management right now, which confirms there's a trade.
UPDATE 3 (at 9:12pm CT): Reed was prophetic in his blog just three days ago, writing, "If I get a call from Theo or Jed, I'd be like oh, darn, there's four, five days before the Trade Deadline, this is probably not about what gardener do you use in the Chicago area. If you get a phone call from them, you want to pick it up, especially at this time of year."
UPDATE 4 (at 9:17pm CT): I'm not saying there's any relationship here, but Brett Jackson was just pulled mid-game from the Iowa Cubs game. Injury? Call-up? Trade? Nothing? I honestly have no idea.
UPDATE 5 (at 9:18pm CT): Bob Nightengale notes – without confirming a trade – that Tigers' pitching prospect Thomas Collier was just pulled from his start after three innings. Collier, 22, is still in Low A, but putting up solid numbers, and was a 2011 22nd rounder (so, the low level isn't just a matter of him being a non-prospect). Don't go nuts just yet. This is only one guy's theory based on a pitcher being pulled.
UPDATE 6 (at 9:38pm CT): Just so it's here, too, the Geovany Soto trade and this one are separate deals, apparently.
UPDATE 7 (at 9:43pm CT): The Twitter is playing a hilarious game where various sources say where he HASN'T been traded. So far, it appears that he isn't going to Pittsburgh, Detroit, or Los Angeles (Dodgers).
UPDATE 8 (at 9:54pm CT): Multiple reports now say this is a combo deal with Johnson and *PAUL MAHOLM* going to the Braves. The implications of such a trade are huge, and will take some time to susse out.
UPDATE 9 (at 10:04pm CT): Jerry Crasnick says the Cubs are getting two minor league pitchers, but they aren't in the Teheran-Gilmartin-Delgado-Minor group. The Braves still have many great prospects beyond that, so don't get worried yet. Maholm had real value.
UPDATE 10 (at 10:30pm CT): Jerry Crasnick says one pitcher in the deal is Jaye Chapman, a 25-year-old reliever with huge K numbers at AAA, but decently-high walk numbers as well.
UPDATE 11 (at 10:37pm CT): YES. Ken Rosenthal says the other pitcher in the deal is prospect Arodys Vizcaino, who is currently out after undergoing Tommy John surgery earlier this year. Obviously that part isn't good, but that's how the Cubs could get him in a deal like this – before the surgery, he was a big-time prospect. He's just 21, and before the year, was a top 50 prospect in all of baseball. EEeeeeeeh!
UPDATE 12 (at 10:34pm CT): OK, I'm leaving the updates on this post where they are, while I move on to the crazy Matt Garza rumors that are flying. I'll have more on Vizcaino and Chapman later today/tomorrow.

Google Tags the Entire Web as Malware
For about one hour Saturday morning, 6:30 AM PST to 7:25 AM PST, every search result coming from Google was tagged as malware with the phrase "This site may harm your computer".
Google blamed the problem on human error, although they didn't name the human. They have a list of bad URLs which they flag as such for good reason: the site may be a phishing site, or distribute malware, or even directly attack clients.
In this case the list included "/" - in other words, the root of the web. Oops. This meant all sites, all of which are child sites of "/", were also tagged..
Google explained that they work with StopBadware.org to develop their list, but they did not get their list or the error from StopBadware.org, which suffered a DDOS attack as result of this problem.
Google's on-case reliability team noticed the problem quickly and fixed it. They say that the longest any one user should have been affected was about 40 minutes.
And they say they're sorry.

Electroencephalogram (EEG)
(Electroencephalography, brain wave test)
Procedure overview
What is an EEG?
An electroencephalogram (EEG) detects abnormalities in the brain waves or electrical activity of the brain. During the procedure, electrodes consisting of small metal discs with thin wires are pasted on the scalp. The electrodes detect tiny electrical charges that result from the activity of the brain cells. The charges are amplified and appear as a graph on a computer screen or as a recording that may be printed out on paper. Your physician then interprets the reading.
Related procedures that may be performed are evoked potential studies. These studies are used to measure electrical activity in the brain in response to stimulation of sight, sound, or touch. Please see this procedure for additional information.
Different types of normal brain waves
An EEG records patterns of brain activity. Among the basic waveforms are the alpha, beta, theta, and delta rhythms.
Alpha waves occur at a frequency of 8 to 12 cycles per second in a regular rhythm. They are present only when you are awake but have your eyes closed. Usually they disappear when you open your eyes or start mentally concentrating.
Beta waves occur at a frequency of 13 to 30 cycles per second. They are usually associated with anxiety, depression, or the use of sedatives.
Theta waves occur at a frequency of 4 to 7 cycles per second. They are most common in children and young adults.
Delta waves occur at a frequency of 0.5 to 3.5 cycles per second. They generally occur only in young children during sleep.
During an EEG, typically about 100 pages or computer screens of activity are evaluated. Special attention is paid to the basic waveforms, but brief bursts of energy and responses to stimuli, such as light, are also examined.
Reasons for the procedure
The EEG is used to evaluate several types of brain disorders. When epilepsy is present, seizure activity will appear as rapid spiking waves on the EEG.
Patients with lesions of the brain, which can result from tumors or stroke, may have unusually slow EEG waves, depending on the size and the location of the lesion.
The test can also be used to diagnose other disorders that influence brain activity, such as Alzheimer's disease, certain psychoses, and a sleep disorder called narcolepsy.
The EEG may also be used to determine the overall electrical activity of the brain (e.g., to evaluate trauma, drug intoxication, or extent of brain damage in comatose patients). The EEG may also be used to monitor blood flow in the brain during surgical procedures.
There may be other reasons for your physician to recommend an EEG.
Risks of the procedure
The EEG has been used for many years and is considered a safe procedure. The test causes no discomfort. The electrodes only record activity and do not produce any sensation. In addition, there is no risk of getting an electric shock.
In rare instances, an EEG can cause seizures in a person with a seizure disorder due to the flashing lights or the deep breathing that may be involved during the test. If this occurs, a physician will treat the seizure immediately.
There may be other risks depending upon your specific medical condition. Be sure to discuss any concerns with your physician prior to the procedure.
Certain factors or conditions may interfere with the reading of an EEG test. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) caused by fasting
Body or eye movement during the tests (but this will rarely, if ever, actually interfere significantly with the interpretation of the test)
Lights, especially bright or flashing ones
Certain medications, such as sedatives
Drinks containing caffeine, such as coffee, cola, and tea (while these drinks can occasionally alter the EEG results, this almost never actually interferes significantly with the interpretation of the test)
Oily hair or the presence of hair spray
Before the procedure
Your physician will explain the procedure to you and offer you the opportunity to ask any questions that you might have about the procedure.
You will be asked to sign a consent form that gives your permission to do the procedure. Read the form carefully and ask questions if something is not clear.
Wash your hair with shampoo but do not use a conditioner the night before the test. Do not use any hair care products, such as hairspray or gels.
Notify your physician of all medications (prescribed and over-the-counter) and herbal supplements that you are taking.
Discontinue using medications that may interfere with the test if your physician has directed you to do so. Do not stop using medications without first consulting your physician.
Avoid consuming any food or drinks containing caffeine for 8 to12 hours before the test.
Follow any directions your physician gives you about reducing your sleep the night before the test. Some EEG tests require that you sleep through the procedure and some do not. The night before, adults may not be allowed to sleep more than 4 or 5 hours, and children not more than 5 to 7 hours, if the EEG is to be performed while the patient is sleeping.
Avoid fasting the night before or day of the procedure, since low blood sugar may influence the results.
Based upon your medical condition, your physician may request other specific preparation.
During the procedure
An EEG may be performed on an outpatient basis or as part of your stay in a hospital. Procedures may vary depending on your condition and your physician's practices.
Generally, an EEG procedure follows this process:
You will be asked to relax in a reclining chair or lie on a bed.
Between 16 and 25 electrodes will be attached to your scalp with a special paste, or a cap containing the electrodes will be used.
You will be asked to close your eyes, relax, and be still.
Once the recording begins you will need to remain still throughout the test. You may be monitored through a window in an adjoining room to observe any movements that can cause an inaccurate reading, such as swallowing or blinking. The recording may be stopped periodically to let you rest or reposition yourself.
After the initial recording performed at rest, you may be tested with various stimuli to produce activity that does not show up while you are resting. For example, you may be asked to breathe deeply and rapidly for three minutes, or you may be exposed to a bright light.
This study is generally performed by an EEG technician and may take approximately 45 minutes to two hours.
If you are being evaluated for a sleep disorder, the EEG may be performed while you are asleep.
After the procedure
Once the test is complete,electrodes and paste will be removed and the you will need to wash and dry your hair as normal.
If any sedatives were taken for the test, you may be required to rest until the sedatives have worn off. You will need to have someone drive you home.
Skin irritation or redness may be present at the locations where the electrodes were placed, but this will wear off in a few hours.
Your physician will inform you as to when to resume any medications you stopped taking before the test.
Your physician may give you additional or alternate instructions after the procedure, depending on your particular situation.

BROOMFIELD -- The most successful fundraising athletic director in the history of the University of Colorado is no longer the athletic director because his bosses weren't happy with his fundraising and financial management of the department.
That picture has emerged over the past two days as each side held press conferences to address Mike Bohn's forced resignation Tuesday after eight years in the job.
It was Bohn's turn Thursday at the Omni Interlocken Hotel where he stood at a podium on a small stage with his family and other supporters in attendance and outlined his track record still using terms such as "we" and "us" in reference to both the past and future at the school.
"I will say this," Bohn said. "They have the right to pick who their athletic director is and I respect that. I built a solid foundation based on strong guiding principles. Again, I'm very proud of how we run a clean program and a bold vision for competitiveness in the Pac-12 Conference.
"I met virtually every expectation of all my incentives for eight years straight. I gave it my all. I carried the ball forward. The program is positioned well for a bright future. My heart knows the honest and passionate commitment that we have made."
He was introduced by former CU Regent Pete Steinhauer who served on the board and the CU search committee eight years ago when Bohn was hired. In an interview afterward, Steinhauer stopped short of saying the school had made a mistake by parting ways with Bohn but he said he didn't understand the decision.
In a seven-page handout Bohn provided, he detailed his accomplishments as CU's fifth full-time AD. He read from the handout for more than 20 minutes before taking questions.
Bohn, who recently became a grandfather, said he was never given a concrete answer for why Chancellor Phil DiStefano decided to change athletic directors but he did say that DiStefano mentioned wanting to increase fundraising by the department.
"I had no idea this was coming," Bohn said. "I was never informed there was an issue."
Among his fundraising highlights:
Six donations of $1 million or more.
Making the athletic department the No. 1 fundraising unit on the Boulder campus.
Successful implementation of the first donor seating program in history in basketball.
Creation of the Buff Club Cabinet, a group of 68 donors who give a minimum of $25,000 annually to the department.
Increasing corporate sponsorships to record levels of $4.1 million, including the largest sponsorship in history of nearly $1 million.
"I'm very proud of the fundraising efforts I was able to put together," Bohn said.
Bohn, who grew up in Boulder and at one time sold concessions in the stands during games, said he is proud of his complete track record.
"I am extremely proud as a Boulderite to know what we accomplished," Bohn said. "And when I say we, we're talking about all the people who helped us put it together."
A day earlier DiStefano noted he wanted to take the department to new levels of fundraising and run the program more like a business. Bohn clearly responded to that comment at one point Thursday when he said, "Lots of people talking about business," Bohn said. "Well. We do run this as a business, and I want you to know that from Day One we recognized we needed some help there. ... We've been working at this a long time."
Bohn said his department had a balanced budget for the first six years of his tenure but it fell short on the revenue side last year because of the move from the Big 12 Conference to the Pac-12.
He said the department fell short on the revenue side and failed to balance its budget again this year because of a $2.6 million shortfall in football ticket revenue caused by a 1-11 season in which the Buffs were blown out of most of their games. He said the fact that the Pac-12 Network is not yet profitable and won't distribute revenue to any of the conference schools this year or next year also contributed to the department's revenue shortfalls.
Bohn said the department is expected to come up short of its revenue goals again next year mostly because there won't be a distribution from the Pac-12 Network once again. Startup costs for the network and an inability to sign a deal with DirecTV has slowed the expected growth of the network's revenues.
"We knew it was going to be a two-year tough window and campus knew that," Bohn said.
Bohn said he does not believe there was one CU administrator and major donor who wanted to see him ousted from his job.
Bohn was asked if he was ever given any fundraising goals by university leaders that he could measure his performance against. He said there were no specific revenue goals in his initial contract, which was extended twice in his tenure.
"I believe I excelled there," he said. "And the new donors we brought in, the ones we have in the queue and the progress we were making there, I'll put record up against any of the previous athletic directors in the program. The fundraising culture at Colorado is a challenge and I feel like we were scratching at that and changing that."
Not long after Bohn's press conference ended, CU spokesman Bronson Hilliard issued a statement.
"The University leadership has always been appreciative of Mike Bohn's many contributions to CU athletics and to the CU-Boulder campus," Hilliard said. "The chancellor acknowledged those contributions in his media appearance on Wednesday. We wish Mike all the best, and we're focused now on moving ahead on our fundraising and organizational goals for intercollegiate athletics."

And, as of Tuesday, April 5, it is still "pending review".
Eclipse 4.2 vs. 3.8 for Juno
(See also notes from previous meeting.)
For Juno, Eclipse 4.2 will be the primary workbench, but all (participating) projects will support and maintain a 3.8 based deliverable.
'Primary workbench' means Eclipse 4.2 will be the primary workbench that (participating) projects build against, and test, and will be provided in the common repository, and EPP packages. In all cases, "4.2" means "4.2 plus compatibility layer". That is, no one is expected to split streams, use 4.2 workbench "native" or exploit anything specific to 4.2. Of course, projects can if they want to (within the Assumptions, below) but there is no requirement to exploit 4.2 directly and probably better if low level projects do not.
'Support and maintain a 3.8 based deliverables' means that (participating) projects, at a minimum, agree to continue to provide a deliverable that can be used with 3.8 workbench. In most cases, we hope, this is the exact same deliverable used for the 4.2 based deliverable. This would be true for projects that do not use 4.2 specific API and simply rely on the compatibility layer. But for projects that want to exploit something new in 4.2 workbench ... that is split streams and have one specific to the 4.2 workbench prereq ... then they would still be expected to provide something adopters or upstream projects could use for 3.8-based installs. When there are two separate deliverables, the 3.8-based maintenance version might simply be Indigo SR2, at a minimum. But, even then, there might be cases where versions ranges have to be adjusted, or bugs fixed due to changes in 3.8 (since Indigo SR2 will be built and tested with Eclipse 3.7.2). Those are the minimum assumed deliverables. Naturally, projects may do more if they have desire or reason to, but the goal is to allow adopters an extended "transition" period to 4.x, if needed, where things will still work, in some form, using 3.8 based prereqs. For projects that do have "two deliverables", the 3.8 based one would be available on their own download sites and their own project's software site repositories, not the common repository.
While we want to allow projects to split streams, if they need to do so to exploit some new feature in Eclipse 4.x, we assume no "low level" projects introduce split streams that would require all dependent projects above them to also split streams. This could easily lead to "double work" for many people, which is not practical.
Point of no return
We need to follow a process of evaluating this proposal, making sure there are no "blockers" that prevent adopting it as the final plan. We will do this by following this plan for Juno M1, M2, M3, and M4. M4 is mid-December and it will be assumed that is the point of no return. If no blockers or issues are found that prohibit this plan, then it will be considered final after M4, mid-December, 2011 (which is the normal time for the "final plans" for our yearly June releases). This cycle differs from previous cycles, though, since it assumes projects and adopters do plenty of early testing with those early milestones (and/or 3.8 based installs) to make sure it is a valid plan. Typically, many projects will be busy with Indigo maintenance during this same period of time, so it does take some commitment to also do the early Juno work if there are any concerns about following this plan.
Juno Dates
These are our proposed dates for Juno deliverables. They follow same "pattern" as previous years. Any issues? Discussion? If not, the milestone dates will be forthcoming, also following pattern from previous years.
- Release: June 27, 2012 (fourth Wednesday)
- SR1: September 28, 2012 (fourth Friday)
- SR2: February 22, 2013 (fourth Friday)
Next Meeting
- May 4, 2011 (our regular "first Wednesday" meeting, at Noon Eastern).

Kershaw County citizens who are currently coaching teams through the county's recreation department can now serve on the county's Recreation Advisory Commission. The change is a step closer to becoming official following a unanimous first reading vote of an amendment to the ordinance establishing the commission in the first place.
People seem to get nervous when they realize you're past 25 years old and not only unwed, but also not even close to being wed. I don't really understand why it worries people so much, but I try not to let it bother me. Someone, who will remain unnamed and un-described, recently asked me "Haley, when are you going to get married?"
What are you thankful for?
Kershaw County Council may "reactivate" its Recreation Advisory Committee on Tuesday when it considers amending the ordinance that originally created the committee.
The Kershaw County Library ran a Food for Fines drive earlier this fall. Patrons with fines were offered the opportunity to reduce the amount they owed by donating nonperishable food items at $1 towards fines per item. The donated food items were given to Christian Community Ministries (CCM) and also to Community of Hope Food Bank in Elgin and Bethune First Baptist Church to help stock their food pantries.
For Dr. Larry Parrott of Camden, this year's Marion duPont Scott Colonial Cup not only marked the 44th anniversary of the steeplechase event, but his 40th year of attendance. This year, he and his wife, Joy, along with their granddaughters, Bethany and Mabry Parrott, came out to tailgate, visit with friends and enjoy the races.
INVISTA of Camden has a had a rather successful campaign drive for the United Way of Kershaw County this year, according to Kathy Sharp, the plant's quality manager.
McCallum Sweeney Consulting (MSC), a Greenville-based consulting firm working with Duke Energy Progress (DEP), recently completed its evaluation of a potential industrial site called Emmanuel for Kershaw County.
Safety seems to be one of those things we talk about and know to be important, but don't really consider until it has been compromised. At least, in my experience, that tends to be the way it goes. This summer, when I was living in Mount Pleasant, a close friend of mine was part of a situation where his safety was really compromised. I was recently reminded of this situation and wanted to share it with others.
Suominen Nonwovens' primary product at its Bethune plant is nonwoven roll goods, such as baby wipes, floor mops, toilet wands, alcohol prep pads and undercast wraps. According to Plant Manager Darryl Fournier, its parent company is Suominen Corporation, located in Helskinki, Finland. The plant -- under various names and owners -- has been in Bethune for 60 years, Fournier said.
Three schools in the Kershaw County School District (KCSD) could lose their school resource officers (SROs) when grant funding ends in June 2014. KCSD Safe Schools/Healthy Students (SS/HS) Director Kevin Rhodes, who is also chairman of the Kershaw County Safe Community Commission, warned Kershaw County Council of the possibility during a presentation to council Tuesday evening.
One of my friends was griping to me recently about "the problem with my generation." He's slightly older than me and enjoys lecturing me every now and again on the troubles of the youth of America today. He said the problem with my generation is that we believe everything we see on YouTube.
Democratic State Sen. Vincent Sheheen, of Camden, brought his gubernatorial campaign home Thursday, speaking to a meeting of the Golden Club of Kershaw County.
Kershaw County Council will discuss awarding of sewer bids regarding two pump stations in Elgin at its meeting Tuesday evening. According to County Administrator Vic Carpenter, a portion of the budget was set aside for the rehabilitation of the two stations, called Elgin 1 and 2.
For the first time in a generation, Bethune will have a new mayor. In Tuesday's election, Bethune residents chose Charles McCoy as its new mayor. McCoy will take office Jan. 1, replacing Carlisle Davis who has been mayor for 24 years.

Russia Finish tour on a High
The Russian Bears ended their short tour to New Zealand by thumping Otago 40-10 at Tahuna Park in Dunedin yesterday. It was a game with some crunching tackling which kept turnovers flowing and scoring to a minimum as both teams enjoyed sunny, warm conditions on ANZAC day.
After defending its half for most of the first quarter, Otago scored first, in the 18th minute, when centre Aterea Tawhai beat two Russian defenders in a chase for the loose ball near the line for a converted try.
The Russians bounced back 10min later when hooker Roman Ovtchinnikov went over for an unconverted try.
Russia went ahead 8-6 5min before the break when its second-rower and captain Kirill Koulemine burst through inside the Otago 20. Soon after, Ovtchinnikov scored his second try of the first spell when he went around the defence unmarked at dummy half to give the Bears a 14-6 lead at half-time
However, Otago became its own worst enemy in the second half as the Bears outsmarted and out-manoeuvred the home side.
After halftime the Bears came out firing, and scored 10 points in 12 minutes to take the score to 24-6 after 52 minutes.
Otago scored its only other try of the game when Tawhai scored from a movement in which the ball went through several sets of hands out wide. Russia then sealed the game over a tiring Otago side with three tries in the final quarter.
Otago had its moments, but too many times coughed up the ball early in the tackle count. Otago captain Emil Huch said the game was anyone's at half-time, but his side let itself down in the second spell. Otago second-rowers Julius Kuresa and George Taunga both had fine games, along with loose forward Joe Coyne and scrum-half Mat Lowe. Koulemine and Ovtchinnikov dominated for the Russians, each collecting a hat-trick of tries.
Russian co-coach Bob Bailey said the local team had not had the benefit of build-up matches, like the Russians. Bailey said the Otago side was the quickest team his side had seen on tour, although it was not as physical as Canterbury.
Russia 40 (Kirill Koulemine 3, Roman Ovtchinnikov 3, Aidak Akhmetshin, Sergey Dobrynine tries; Oleg Youkov 4 goals), Otago 10 (Aterea Tawhai 2 tries; Jamie Karehana goal). Half-time: Russia 14-6.
On Saturday, a Russian Invitation XIII comprising players from the Russian touring party that were not considered for the Anzac Day game and several local club players beat the Aotearoa Bulldogs 40-6 at Brooklands Park in Mosgiel. The Mosgiel Cobras hosted the event at Brookland Park and put on a good day for the International visitors and local alike, with the Bar-B-Que going all day and the food flowing encouraging the non playing visitors to enjoy a host of traditional kiwi Bar-B-Que delights.Back on the field, the Aotearoa Bulldogs began the game with the Bears camped in their own 20 metre zone for the first 26 minutes before they worked away at a hole and went over for the first try of the game, and the only try for the Bulldogs.
Down 6-0, the Bears became more expansive in their play and began to stop running up the middle and spun the ball wide seeing the wingers come into their own with a couple of run away tries allowing the visitors to go to the break 8 - 6. Wise words of wisdom is only what can be described from the Bears coach, as they came out fired up and shut the Bulldogs down running away with the points at nearly a point a minute finishing the game 42 - 6 up and letting the Otago Rugby League faithful with an eye opener as to what they can expect from the Bears top side on ANZAC Day at Tahuna Park.
For an informal last minute event, the crowd was as good as any game day event, and the atmosphere made for an entertaining day out.
Russia 46 (Phil Tuitufu 3, Mike Harbour 2, Valenin Baskakov 2, Nikolay Zagoskin 2, Rafael Yakubov tries; Yakubov 3 goals), Aotearoa Bulldogs 6 (Kai Tahiri try; Chad Puru goal). Half-time: Russia 8-6.
