In this Feb. 5, 2014 photo, Gavrilo Princip's relatives, Nikola Princip, right, and his grandson Novak Princip,16, pay their respects at the Princip family plot in a cemetery in the village of Obljaj, near Bosansko Grahovo, 300 kilometers west of Sarajevo, Bosnia. A century later, Gavrilo Princip still provokes controversy from beyond the grave as his legacy has been molded time and again to meet political agendas in the Balkans, still a patchwork of ethnic and religious rivalries.

Ramiz Skopljak, 65, walks where his house once stood and was swept by the river last week in the village of Topcic Polje, near the Bosnian town of Zenica, 90 kilometers north of Sarajevo, on Monday May 19, 2014. At least 35 people have died in Serbia and Bosnia in the five days of flooding caused by unprecedented torrential rain, laying waste to entire towns and villages and sending tens of thousands of people out of their homes, authorities said.

In this photo taken on Tuesday, April 15, 2014, a Norwegian Red calf waits for food inside a farm in the village of Kozarac, near Bosnian town of Perijedor, 250 kms northwest of Sarajevo. Bosnian farmer Jusuf Arifagic invested eight million euro into the luxury farm that started four months ago with the import of 115 Norwegian Red Cows - a type of tough and hornless animal bred in Norway over the past 75 years to produce more and better milk than the usual cow known in the Balkans. He plans to expand into the biggest facility keeping this type of animal in Europe with 5,000 cows. In a country where half of the population is living in poverty, his animals sleep on mattresses in a barn with a computerized air condition and lighting system. They are bathed regularly, get a massage whenever they feel like it and receive the occasional pedicure.(AP Photo/Amel Emric)
