The "Domestic Employment Law" specifies that staff such as drivers, gardeners and nannies will now be able to limit their services to 10 hours a day, work six days a week and be entitled to an annual holiday.

They will also be given paid sick leaves and guaranteed breaks for meals and worship.

Previously, domestic workers were not covered by Qatar's labour laws, meaning they had limited protection in legal disputes with their employers.

Once the new law takes effect, domestic staff will be able to sign a legal employment contract with their employers.

They will also get end-of-service benefits equal to a minimum of three weeks wages for each year of service when their contract ends.

Recent estimates put the number of domestic workers affected by the new legislation between 200,000-300,000 workers.

Out of a total population of 2.7 million, an estimated 1.9 million people in Qatar are low-skilled workers who work in construction and other jobs.

Tony Perkins, president of the anti-gay religious lobbying group the Family Research Council, had his home destroyed by the massive flooding ravaging Southern Louisiana this week.

Although no one wants to celebrate a person losing their home, the destruction of Perkins’ house isn’t without irony, considering that he’s claimed in the past that natural disasters are God’s way of punishing an increasingly gay-friendly world.

Calling into his own radio show, Perkins described the flood as being of “biblical proportions,” adding that he and his family will have to live in a camper for 6 months until the damage is repaired.

But Perkins was careful to point out that this particular flood wasn’t because of the gays, but rather an “incredible, encouraging spiritual exercise to take you to the next level in your walk with an almighty and gracious God who does all things well.”

@RepAdamSchiff Arpaio action was appalling & political. It also sends message to witnesses in Russia investigation to keep quiet, stay loyal & get pardon.
