Destination: African Village at CIV

Gracias, Merci, Salamat, Spasibo, Thank ye, Jag tackar, Yaqhanyelay, Thank you very much for stopping by. I apologize for not updating lately due to school. I was going to update Tuesday and Thursday, but i was busy with this project in French class lol. So here I present to y'all three updates!

First, we will continue the tour of the International Village to Africa. The famous attraction of this village is the safari tours. There wasnt much I could dig up on African bats, so here is the best I could do. If you guys find any other African buildings, please let me know, thanks.

Destination: Gourmandy Market

The Gourmandy Market is back! The new Gourmandy will be a maketplace with over 160 booths. Open to the public, the Gourmandy is where you can find, fruits, vegetables, goods, jewelry, clothing, motion controlled tasers, pets, books, drinks, bombs, drugs, electronics and just about anything you can imagine from around the world. Of course, you must have a license to buy bombs, drugs, alcohols, guns and such. And bombs must be passed by the Petrovan Dept. of Safety and must only have a damage rating of no more than 2.

Destination: Sports Village at CIV

There's only two venues at the Sports Village, but these two are one of the best venues Petrova has got to offer.

Petrovan Culture 101: What do Petrovars listen to?

---

A little note: Some of y'all may be wondering why I use Petrovar and Petrovan. Well, Petrovar refers to people, while Petrovan refers to things.

Petrovars like to listen to their iPods as much as Americans do. Petrova is such a young country and did away with traditional Russian folk music and polka a couple of decades ago. Petrovan music is influenced by Middle Eastern sounds. Famous artists include: Zana, Favrik, Dik Oglhj(Death of Sound) and more. Petrovan music ranges from pop, rock, metal, hip-hop, rap to classical. Here are two songs that are famous in Petrova right now. Enjoy and until next time, Osigelik from Petrova!

Hadise-Deli Oglan

Trixie Nominations from Petrova

---

Thanks guys, replies will be posted on next update!

Yesterday, thousands of Petrovars lined up at voting places to nominate their favorite candidates for this years trixies. Here some some of the results from yesterday's votes. These are only partially some of the votes, some will be revealed later on in the week. (Note to admin: this is only nominations, so i dont see what wrong in revealing these votes, but if we cant show them, then please tell me, and I'll delete 'em ) Once again, good luck to everyone.

[SounderBruce 173]

I nominated you for a Trixie!

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Brad: Looks good!

Brian: That's a lot of highways in one area...

Brad: To do the make an image bigger when you click on it thing, you have to make the image a hyperlink to the bigger image.

Brian: First get all the image parts together and save it as one large image that isn't broken up.

Brad: Then resize this image so that it is not larger than 800x600--

Brian: --or 600x800--

Brad: --and then post this image in the CJ, with it linked to the full size picture.

Brian: However, simply splitting an image up into 800x600 chunks, and then posting one after another, remembering to hit the enter key between the individual parts will create a full sized mosaic in the page.

Brad: This only works if the mosaic you want to post is equal to or less than 800 pixes wide, however.

Brian: Basically, it should look like this:

<image 1>

<image 2>

<image 3>

Brad: Instead of this:

<image 1><image 2><image 3>

Brian: Can't wait for more!

Brad: Thanks for the nomination!

Petrovan Culture 101: Petrovan Cuisine Part II

---

Petrovan food is mostly influenced by Eastern European countries, but what about deserts? Deserts in Petrova come from all over the world and is has a more Petrovan touch to it(much more sweeter than it would normally be). Help yourself to some delicious treats.

Suggestions, questions, critiques are welcome!!

[GreekMan 246]

[SounderBruce 173]

Looks like Petrova has a sweet tooth.
