Russia will set fixed election dates this year, in a bid to reduce election costs  and overcome the negative effect of the so-called "voter fatigue," which results in low turnout, Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission Alexander Veshnyakov said. Experts said fixed days will also create problems for those seeking to use "dirty technologies." Spin doctors touring the country in accordance with the schedule of elections will find it more difficult to influence all election campaigns at once.

Coming from Scotland, where Christmas is a far less important holiday than  the days we call Hogmanay (December 31) and Ne’erday (January 1), I should perhaps first introduce our traditions. At midnight on Hogmanay, we toast each other with whisky. After that, we visit friends and family, drink more and sing traditional songs. It is important that the first person to enter a home is tall, dark and handsome, and that all guests brings gifts, usually whisky, a cake or coal. The traditional greeting is ‘Happy new year and lang may your lum reek’, which translates as ‘Long may your chimney smoke’.
