    Something happened recently? I haven't been watching the news in the last 2 weeks, so have no idea what you're referring to....

    However, here are my two hunks of copper:

    In honor of turmoil? What more representative of that than 1914?

    That said, I'm not so sure this shake up qualifies as turmoil. But it is a step closer to elections and this process will definitely be one to watch!

    And for some Russia news a bit more fun:

    [Yesterday] has been designated the Day of Conception in Russia, which just happens to coincide with Putin's unceremonious disbanding of the government. Today falls exactly nine months before Russia Day, and as one of Putin's policies to encourage more breeding in his country, he's offered SUVs, refrigerators, and monetary rewards to anyone who gives birth on June 12. So the mayor of Ulyanovsk, a region in central Russia, has given workers there the afternoon off to make with the baby making. Everyone who gives birth is a winner in the "Give Birth to a Patriot on Russia's Independence Day" contest, but the grand prize winner -- judged on qualities like "respectability" and "commendable parenting" -- gets to take home a UAZ-Patriot, a Russian-made SUV.
