 African countries were sent home, after their proxy was taken."
RIA Novosti reports that the procedure for the election began at around 16.00 local time (12.00 CET).
Voting booths open, the curtains drawn apart. Before entering the voting booth a delegate has to leave on the table at the counting commission all the photos and video, and mobile phones. Such a requirement is to prevent bribery of delegates who could fix his choice and then submit a "customer" photos as evidence. Before the elections, the delegates passed rigorous instruction - there was over 30 minutes of explaining the rules of filling the ballot. Presumably the voting will last about three hours, after which the counting commission will begin to count the votes. The composition of the counting commission included representatives of the British Virgin Islands, Barbados and Italy.
According to Soviet Sport two members of the counting commission were replaced at the last minute.
The Congress was opened late, but from the very beginning we have observed a number of technical problems. As it turned out, the hall where the delegates gathered, was unable to accommodate all members of Congress. Then, because of broken microphones half of the delegates have not heard a report on proxy voting.
uncertainty among the participants of the legitimacy of the right to transfer the votes of some countries. Most discussions have been about proxies for Ghana, Ireland, Jamaica, Sudan, Rwanda, Thailand, Ethiopia, Fiji, Laos, South Korea, Macau, Malawi, Myanmar, Solomon Islands and Cyprus.
In his speech Karpov mentioned that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has long departed from this practice, "because it is very scandalous and questionable".
We have many things in life apart from FIDE. But Ilyumzhinov has something to lose. Moreover, apart from the presidency he has nothing left. Delegates are intimidated almost all dance to the tune of Ilyumzhinov. We're trying everything possible, but apparently it's useless.
Robert Fontaine and Gérard Demuydt of Europe-Echecs posted a video with footage of the General Assembly. It includes an agitated Garry Kasparov and Bachar Kouatly who demand a different procedure. At some point the GA had to be stopped for a while.
Ilyumzhinov wins the elections - see our separate report.<reponame>blazecolour/vinyl-base

Dog bites can be damaging injuries that lead to serious, long-lasting problems requiring medical treatment. The people who own animals have a legal responsibility to prevent their dogs from biting other people, especially when they know that the animal may bite.
If a dog bit you, a DeKalb County dog bite lawyer could review your case to determine if you can take action against the dog’s owner for compensation for your damages. A well-versed personal injury lawyer could guide you through the claims process if you choose to pursue compensation.
While some states have a strict liability policy that requires dog owners to compensate dog bite victims except under certain circumstances, Georgia law is somewhat different. People who were injured by dog bites can still pursue compensation for their damages under certain circumstances, under O.C.G.A. § 51-2-6 to 7.
Also, the statute of limitations on dog bite claims in Georgia is two years from the date of the occurrence. This means a lawsuit must be filed within that period to seek accountability.
The standard in Georgia is often referred to as “one free bite” because a dog owner whose dog has already bitten someone now is on notice that the animal could pose a threat. This is true even when the dog bite injury is very severe. In some cases, it may not be necessary to prove a previous injury-causing bite if there is a history of previous aggression.
Many areas of DeKalb County have leash laws that can help victims prove their case if the dog owner had the dog unleashed outside their own property. In Atlanta, according to Sec. 18-61 of the Code of Ordinances, owners must keep a dog on a leash, at heel, or obedient to and beside a competent person if the dog is going off the owner’s property or outside the owner’s vehicle.
The statute also provides that vicious propensity can be proven by showing the animal was not at heel or on a leash as required. It may be possible to proceed without proof of a previous bite by showing a violation of relevant leash law at the time of the dog attack. A dog bite lawyer can help victims analyze their unique situation and determine how the various laws apply to their cases.
These are in addition to traumatic injuries, including injuries to the limbs, face, or torso. In some cases, and especially when small children are involved, dog bites can be fatal. In this case, a dog bite attorney may need to file a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of the victim’s family to seek justice.
When you have suffered serious injuries due to a dog, a DeKalb County dog bite lawyer could help you take action to seek the compensation you need.

A view of Bells Iron Works in Port Clarence c1920s.
In the 1850’s houses were built to accomodate the iron and steel workers, many of them being Immigrants. Around 850 houses in Sweethills and Samphire Batts (now the Clarences) were built, council houses eventually followed and and with shops, schools, churches and even a cinema, the area boomed.
The industrial complex these houses were built among stretched further to the west, beyond the iron and steel works. Bell Brothers had also set up a salt works in 1882 and built a soda works in 1884 (to which was added a chlorine works).
Pollution levels must have been horrendous.
There’s a great photo showing the spread of the works by 1930 here:
Which can be compared to this 1949 photo, when large areas have been demolished (thankfully including the houses, but the school had survived) :
Bell Brothers Clarence Iron Works stood upon an under ground bed of salt which had been created by a prehistoric sea. The salt deposit on their land was discovered in 1874 by boring to a depth of over 1100 feet. Unfortunately there was no practical means of recovering the salt until 1880. In this year a bore hole was sunk down to the salt bed and lined with an iron tube which was perforated at its lower end. A smaller second tube was then inserted into the first and water was fed down the hole in the space between the two tubes. This introduced water dissolved the salt and the resulting brine was pumped to the surface via the smaller tube.
In August 1882 Bell Brothers opened a salt works next to the Clarence Iron Works. Brine pumped from the bore holes was fed into a large reservoir capable of holding half a million gallons. The brine was then pumped to ten adjoining evaporating pans, built of brick with iron pans measuring 65 ft. by 25 ft. and 18 inches in depth. Most of the pans were heated by coal but a number closer to the iron works were heated by waste heat from the furnaces. Production amounted to 300 tons per week. Most was shipped to the chemical industries on the river Tyne.
Bell Brothers had a history of diversifying into other industries and in 1884 they established their own chemical industry on this site. The first business was an alkali works to manufacture soda by the ammonia process. Salt brine and limestone were the main components in the manufacture of Soda. Soda (Sodium Carbonate),also known as washing soda, was used as a cleaning agent for domestic purposes like washing clothes. It was also used in the manufacture of glass, soap and paper.
In 1888 the Salt Union acquired Bell Brothers Salt Works. Following the take over of their salt works Bell’s sank further bore holes to extract salt but an agreement with the Salt Union meant they were only allowed to use this salt in Bell’s alkali works.
In 1893 Bell’s built a chlorine works adjoining the soda works to manufacture Chloride of Lime (Calcium Hypochlorite). Chloride of Lime was used as a bleaching agent and in water treatment. In 1895 Brunner, Mond & Co. purchased Bell’s soda works with a view to building a larger works. This never materialised and by
