Topic: Salt Riot


In the News (Fri 1 Jan 10)

  
  Science Tribune
Archaic salteries for evaporating salt from natural brine can be traced back to the 10-11th c in Prikamye but the first salteries of note were founded at the beginning of the 15th c on the Borovaya river by the merchant brothers Kalinnikov from Novgorod.
Salt bedding near Solikamsk was not deep (60-80 m) and was highly concentrated (at least twice the average concentration prevalent in Russia).
The bags of salt were carried across bridges from the salteries to unloading platforms on the storehouse roof by men and women who could lift 5-5.5 poods (80-88 kg) and 3 poods (about 50 kg), respectively.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (CNN) -- At least 30 people were arrested early Sunday in Salt Lake City after a crowd tried to force its way into a beer tent before closing time, prompting police in riot gear to deploy what they called "nonlethal crowd dispersal devices."
There were about 75 police who were clad in full riot gear, and they were firing -- apparently it was nonlethal bullets into the crowd.

 Bud World Olympic Riot Exposed
During the two-week event, the Salt Lake City police and local government leaders turned a blind eye, both to Utah’s open container laws and to underage drinking.
This riot could very well have become the most embarrassing alcohol-related event in Olympic history—yet through careful control of the media and public perception, the cover-up was successful.
I wrote a letter to Anheuser-Busch after the riot, and the response said, “any further dialogue on an event that concluded well over a month ago is not a productive use of either of our time.” Further dialogue is needed and is certainly well worth our time.
