Jamaican bobsled team lost their equipment somewhere between US and Sochi - they had to switch planes in New York and looks like their luggage went somewhere else.
Maybe that is why they need the double barrel toilets.They keep repeating the same shit over and over.

Preparation of ski jumping hills is made by workers from Planica, Slovenia. They are in Sochi for almost two months now and they are preparing the slopes so they should be on the top level.

"No worries, mate! You take your time there. We'll just watch you here patiently."
I can't stand that NBC refuses to show it live. I wanna see it LIVE you assholes.
Just read that Shaun White withdrew from the slopestyle event because he thinks the course is too dangerous. He will still compete in other events though.
I think he pulled out because he's just not that good at slopestyle. He found a easy way to back out and took it.
Just FYI, the chart is wrong for Germany, so I'd take it with a grain of salt. One of the public TV stations streaming the events has already five streams, so it'll be at least that in total.http://olympics.cbc.ca/
I don't know whether that's content blocked outside of Canada, but the CBC does seem to plan on having the most extensive coverage according to a chart I saw on Reddit. Although that 1,500 hour figure might be a bit skewed by broadcasting in two languages.

The left is obviously superior.
Ya, judging by the pillow I suppose you're right. I'm average size, and I know I'd have a hell of a time sleeping in something that size as I like to sprawl out. Must suck if you're a 6' 3", 250lb hockey player. At least it appears all teams (including the Russians) have the same beds. We might see a bit more stretching than usual before each game.

But it gets better. A Russian PR rep explained that famous image with the following:

OMG the wrong way round toilet seat in that Twitter feed. Someone hold me please, I've never seen anything as hilariously shambolic.

Pretty distasteful to criticize someone for trying to write in his secondary language and for being citizen of russia. I don't think he has anywhere in this thread denied that the preparations have been a bit clusterfuck. He is just trying to explain some of these fuck ups as well you know, he is a russian and maybe knows what is common there.
More pics!

Greece , Matla , Spain and France from my personal experience.
Maybe not in the larger metropolitan areas , but in all the Holiday resorts this is the case.
Edit : And Russian , clearly![]()
I mentioned this to my SO and he confirmed that concrete ceilings are thing, but rare, hard to do, heavy, and not for residential housing. So...the more you know!

That's the worst thing actually.
For the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow later this year, the organisers built accommodation for 6500+ athletes, and afterwards they'll be converted for housing.
Now time (and the media) will tell how quality-built these accommodations for Glasgow 2014 are, but if these accommodations in Sochi are still standing in a year's time then I'll be really surprised.
If it isn't, it's officially my favorite Sochi fuck-up.
Externally at least the accommodations in Glasgow a very nice. I took a cycle past it on the way back from the city centre a couple of weeks ago, the buildings are all complete as is most of the landscaping. The East end of Glasgow is a bit of shithole but the area at Celtic Park, the velodrome and the athletes village is now looking pretty nice. Not sure I'd be going out walking at night into Dalmarnock or Tollcross if I'm a visiting athlete, although the approach to the recently upgraded Dalmarnock train station is nice and extremely well lit. They're about to demolish the old school in front of Celtic Park and it'll be landscaped over before the games so that should round it off.
this one is a joke, right?

Photoshopped, from a joke twitter account, but awesome that one even has to consider that it isn't.

Saw an item on tv about it last night. Peoples houses got pretty much destroyed because illegal dumping of construction waste was causing landslides. Really sad stuff.
Get out of our comms room, Russia!More pics!
