What is common to Berloga, Bear and Berlin?
The words of Berlog and Berlin come from the same ancient Slavic root. The ancient name of brown and brown bears - ber or beard. Hence the modern European names of the bears - English (BEAR - "Baa") and German (DER Bär.), eg.
Perhaps the name of the capital of Germany - Berlin - originated from the word "Berl", which meant brown dirt and swamp, but the symbol of Berlin is a bear.
In many Slavic languages, the old bee was replaced by the word bear (or consonant), which means the beast of eating honey. In Polish, the bear - niedźwiedź. ("Undertake").
With the advent of cinnamon, the Russian word is brown, probably the origin of the "bee", was crowded with the word brown. In English and German word braun. ("Brown"), resembling "Ber", means brown.
Polish brown - brązowy, sounds like "bronze".
Bill on mandatory accreditation of visa centers
On July 14, the Russian senators offered to introduce compulsory accreditation for intermediary companies in the design of visas abroad.
A visa for traveling abroad Russians, as well as now, will be able to get either at the consulate of a foreign state, or in the visa center, if he passes accreditation.
The maximum proportion of foreigners in the authorized capital of such companies should not exceed 20%. Firms must have a technique for processing confidential data, as well as at least three years of experience in the provision of documents for working with documents.
At the moment, the standards that are developed by deputies will not be able to comply with nor foreign nor domestic visa centers. The first is due to the excess of the threshold in 20% of foreign ownership, the second - due to the lack of three years of experience. And the consulates are currently not ready to serve large amounts of applications, especially with the passing of biometrics.
For example, VIEF Services LLC (VFS Global brand) belongs to the Cyprus Eccron Enterprises LTD. On its website, the company reports that is a subsidiary of the Swiss Kuoni Group. That, in turn, belongs to the EQT investment company created by the Scandinavian Investor AB.
The adoption of this draft law could lead to closings of visa centers and queues when issuing visas.

Park of terrible sculptures in Parikkala in Finland (photo)
On the way from Lappeenranta in Joensuu in the town of Parikkala on the highway number 6 there is a park of strange ripened sculptures (Patsaspuisto). And also you can visit this place on the way to Savonlinna.
Place coordinates on Google map: 61.4838006 29.4813052
This sculpture park is also called mystical forest. All exhibits are created by one author.
Weio Rökketenen created sculptures for more than 50 years on his relatively not large plot, where more than 500 figures fit. He was born in 1944 in Parikkale (died in 2010 there). They write that he was an unlike man, and in the figures expressed himself. From the age of 16, he worked on a paper factory in a satister, and his creativity was his hobby, as a means for psychological unloading and understanding of life.
Self-taught sculptor worked out of concrete. Weo Rökketenen used its sculptures of real dentures, it adds the sculptures of realism and acuteness. The first dental prosthesis used in the work was the denture of the late father of the author.
Some sculptures are pretty cute, engaged in sports: yoga and gymnastics. Others raise tourists because of the bushes. Visitors do not advise walking in the park in the dark.
They say everyone in the park finds something its own. Many sculptures seem funny and definitely memorable. There are marriage of people of different cultures and eras. Even the "author" himself modestly sat down with a shovel on a stone, I wonder who he was going to bury?
Fans of Finnish music will be interested to know that the photo of the Park's figures was used on the Dzhimi Tenor's Disk "Higher Planes".
Characters are periodically rearranged and restored, from the moment of our visit (in 2011) something could change, but the place is still interesting. Perhaps there is no second such park anywhere.
Entrance to the park is free, but you can leave a donation. Volunteers help the park.
Not far from exposure there is a parking lot, the usual for Finland near the highway. The parking lot is information about the town. Tourists write that there is now a cafe.
Passage to the museum from the route is not very good, it is better to navigate the map (coordinates on the Google map: 61.4838006 29.4813052). Address: KUUTOSTII 611, PARIKKALA, FINLAND, index 59130.
Do you remind you of work Weo Rökketenna? It seems, the bastracy looks like the ink spots of Rorshah:
