All Main Stream Media in the world is governmental run by one or several governments or by individuals that have conceded to the governments. Main Stream Media prints what it is told and prints when it is told. There is no exception to this rule in this world. If it is Main Stream Media it is controlled media…

Main Stream Media does what is told or dies as an entity. Truth has no bearing in the Main Stream Media anymore…

I have watched all the manipulation over the Pussy Riot issue and Julian Assange issue. Why it has definable worked its way into the Russian main media and that is how much money is being splashed all around to promote the lies…

I have watched carefully for months and kept a mental track of what percent of the people believe what the main media tells them. It has been interesting because while everyone states that main stream media is fake, they all still try to believe…

We want to believe that everyone who died in Libya deserved to die, all who have died for now in Syria are innocent people, millions who died in Afghanistan and Iraq are guilty and should die. We want to believe that America would do no wrong and that America would never infringe upon our freedoms and liberties. We want to believe and hence we believe and when it all happens different than we want! We look the other way and hopes that it goes away, before it affects us. We believe what ever the media constantly barrages us with as informational overload…

I promise that it will effect us one day…

I have talked about how bad Windows to Russia was attacked and censored and to get out from that situation, I had to move the site from the USA and into the jurisdiction of another country. Does that seem to you that America is the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave?

Maybe better would be, “Land of the servants and Home of the Government!”

I use to have 100,000 hits a day average just from the TSA and DHS located in America. Now they just block me completely and for that I thank them. My readership is Russian, Chinese and the rest of the world. Some Americans, but America is my smallest percent now. I will keep it that way and have stability and peace…

People use to believe and they believed with their hearts that, “I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it. – by Voltaire”

That my friend is gone and will never be back in our lifetime, unless we do some fancy footwork and fast…

Russia is truly the Bastian of freedom compared to America and China now has definitely waltz to a different tune and is sliding past America for their freedoms. It really is sad when the two countries that we have spent all our lifetimes, degrading for human rights have exceeded the US and are on a road to a better life for their people. In a few years America and the West will, while ranking so high on Western sponsored human rights lists, will actually be located at the bottom of the list in reality…

Now back to the title…

Most of you and that would be 90% of you, have no idea what Pussy Riot did! The main issues is that you do not care…

The Western media spouts only about, “Putin dun it!!!!!!!!!”

What the hell does this have to do with Putin? He could care less and that is that…

Maybe his name was used in a nasty chant during prayer service in a church! The fact that they did it in a Orthodox church and royally desecrated that church means nothing to anyone! They only care what the press tells them. Try looking around and doing some real reading for once. Nothing is ever what the press says and that is why we have so many blogs. Blogs try to get the truth out…

So I guess people have a choice: They can either open their eyes and look for the truth, or they can be lazy asses and let the TV guide their lives…

Now we have a another huge division developed in the world. Julian Assange has done more for dividing the world, than anyone I know. The same people that say that Russia can look the other way and ignore what Pussy Riot did, are the same people who call for Julian Assange head on a platter…

Britain has successfully given Latin America and South America a reason to stand together and tell the West to stick it where the sun do not shine…

What use to be a rift between the East and West, has now become a rift, North and South and East and West, with the Western world occupying the smallest part of the world. Kind like the North/West corner…

The West has giving this division credence, when a simple nod and acceptance would have curtailed a rift in an instant, but it seems to me that between governments and controlled media in the West, that they are intentionally causing this divide…

Let Assange go to Ecuador and live happily forever, doing what he does best and telling on the world and their governments, little dirty secretes…

A Russian booster rocket has blasted off from the Odyssey launch pad in the Pacific Ocean as part of the Sea Launch project to deliver a U.S. satellite into orbit, a spokesman for Energiya space corporation said on Sunday.

“The launch took place at 10:55 a.m. Moscow time [06:55 GMT]. The designated time for the spacecraft’s separation from the DM-SL acceleration unit is 11:25 a.m. Moscow time [07:25 GMT],” the spokesman said.

Odyssey, positioned on the equator, is a converted oil rig operated by the Swiss-based rocket company Sea Launch.

The initial launch of the spacecraft was scheduled for August 15 but it was postponed several times due to various reasons.

The 5,980 kilogram Intelsat 21 is a geostationary communications satellite built by Space Systems Loral to provide telecoms services to high-growth markets around the Pacific Rim, including Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and U.S. West Coast.

“Usually the Western governments create their own smaller Assanges in Russia or in China, or in other countries. Now they should try their own medicine and show us how they cope with similar situations,” –  Russian journalist Dmitry Babich…

Darn, I have over a thousand comments to go through today! The last few articles, in the last few days, got slammed. Looks like 25% of them are actually good comments, so I have to check each one separately. That is why I hate comments, not to mention that I get lots of hate Russia and hate Kyle comments… 🙂

Okay a few hours later:

I have 342 comments left to go through again. I started with 1456 comments. After removing all really nasty comments, about death and such. I then went through and checked all links they tried to add to the comment. By the time hundreds of porn links and religious blasphemy links have been deleted, I ended up with 342 comments that are now in the final stages to be approved. I figured about half of that will not make it, but still for one night, I will end up with several hundred comments posted and that is nothing to sneeze at…

It is always strange how somethings that have no meaning, stir people up and other things that should stir people up have no effect. Take the Russian sub in the Gulf of Mexico! People in America are scared and upset. They are responding like a bunch of ignorant savages and well, that just won’t do…

I got tore apart about the article about “I Remember When!” Mainly from trolls who are paid to divert attention from articles that tell the truth about what use to be a good America and about what America has become and what America is becoming. The worst thing in the world to a government is to have people who remember and will talk about how things were…

The very worst thing for a government is when we talk about how things could be and be better than what we are living right now and in the past…

I listened to the song, “Imagine” by John Lennon, this morning…

Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say
I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say
I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

No wonder they assassinated him. He was right…

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace…

This Russian dish served from one end of Russia to the other is known as Kulebyaka. It melds moist salmon with hard boiled eggs and fluffy rice, then all encased in crispy pastry. Kulebyaka is usually made as one long roll, but it could just as easily be made into individual fish pies or even into a huge casserole dish…

Yes there is a million ways to make this and this is just one way! I say use your imagination and make it the way you want to. This recipe will get you started and I promise that your family will find this a great way to eat healthy and good for you salmon…

Ingredients:

• 2 oz of real butter
  1 small onion, finely diced
  6 to 8 oz long grain wild rice, cooked till very soft…
  1 tbsp fresh dill grass, finely chopped
  1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  1 lb puff pastry – not frozen
  1 lb salmon fillets – no skin and shredded, I like to pre-cook the salmon…
  3 medium eggs – hard-boiled and finely diced
  1 raw egg – whipped
  Salt and black pepper – actually I love it best with a touch of crushed red pepper…
  Flour for the rolling pin and surface

How to Make Salmon Kulebyaka:

The oven should be pre-heated to around 350ºF

While oven is pre-heating, make sure salmon and rice are pre-cooked…

Lightly oil a baking tray, to lay the finished product on to bake.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, and add the finely chopped onion. Cook for approximately 10 minutes, until the onion is just tender, and slightly golden brown and getting opaque.

Stir in the pre-cooked rice, adding chopped fresh dill, fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, all with the butter and onion in the sauce pan.

On a lightly floured surface roll out the thawed puff pastry, to make a 12 in square. Try to use only enough flour to do the job. Excess flour will toughen the pastry as will excess working of the dough.

Spread the rice mix over the pastry, but leave a border all round of about ½ inch.

Arrange the pre-cooked salmon pieces on top of the rice, scatter the chopped egg over the salmon. I also toss a little salt and pepper on top for good measure. This is where you can apply crushed pepper as you desire and that is yummy…

Brush pastry edges with whipped egg.

Fold the pastry twice to form a rectangle. Press the edges together to seal in the contents.

Carefully lift the pastry onto the oiled baking tray and glaze the top with beaten egg.

Pierce the pastry on top in several places to allow steam to escape. Those who are artistic can cut a design…

Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for approximately 40 minutes. After 30 minutes cover the roll with foil to keep from burning the top.

Leave on baking tray to cool. Garnish as you desire and once cool enough slice and serve. This makes about enough for 4 people or one very hungry person.

How you serve this dish is up to you, either as a light lunch accompanied by a mixed salad, or as a main meal. It goes particularly well with boiled new potatoes and mixed vegetables. If carefully wrapped in foil the Salmon Kulebyaka travels well and makes good food on a Russian train…

This product can be made with cabbage, ham, pork, chicken and just about anything you desire…

Enjoy, I know you family will…

Ecuador has granted political asylum to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. The decision comes almost two months after the world-famous whistleblower came to the country’s embassy in London seeking protection…

But…

The British government has stated is has absolutely no intention of letting Assange reach the South American country. The UK said that it will do everything in its power to block Assange’s passage to Ecuador…

Even if it is against the International Laws? That is my question and I also ask, “Even if you attack a countries Embassy?”

Have a nice day and we shall see what Britain does over this…

Russia to press ahead on social issues despite crisis:
President Vladimir Putin believes the Russian economy will be able to withstand an eventual economic crisis, arguing that the country ranked third in terms of economic growth rates in 2011 and fourth in terms of industrial output growth rates. “The economy is generally in good shape right now and we’re confident that should a crisis break out we have what it takes to deal with it,” the president pointed out at a meeting with regional human rights commissioners.

“Public debt is minimal at 10%, the unemployment rate is slightly above 5%, which is below the pre-crisis level,” he argued, adding that anti-crisis measures have been enacted and sufficient currency reserves have been accumulated.

Putin went on to say that despite a lackluster economic environment on the global markets, Russia will be able to solve its housing issues within the next ten years.

“I think we have a unique one-time opportunity to radically improve housing provision in Russia. We have the chance to succeed by committing economic, financial, administrative, and political resources to this objective,” Putin said.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev held a cabinet meeting today on allocating subsidies from the federal budget aimed at creating incentives for the construction of low-cost housing facilities. This RUB 2.4bn (approx. USD 75.35m) program seeks to stimulate construction of affordable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly real estate.

Pretty simple and since I just got back from getting a visa successfully from Ukraine, I will expound on the subject in this article…

First read this article:

To Enter The Russian Federation a Foreign Citizen Needs a Visa…

This will get you the basics and get you started on the way…

Now after you have read that other article of mine, I will stress a few things…

1. Use the electronic visa application form and only the electronic visa form…

2. Don’t just have a 3.5 X 4.5 cm picture taken, make sure the photo is exactly 3.5 X 4.5 cm physical dimensions, before you glue it to the application, or you will tear it off the application and cut it down and re-glue it again and it better still look good or you will start all over…

3. Americans do not need health insurance proof, nor did I need a HIV negative proof…

4. Cost for visa was 250 American dollars…

5. Tricky point of the Russian Invitation: A Telex is much higher in cost, but does not create need to have delay in getting visa. Walking in with Invitation in hand, could and most likely will entail a longer wait time, as they will send it off by snail mail request for verification of Invitation. So land mail is terrible and unreliable. Telex is the sure bet. Only high level Invitations are by Telex…

6. Make copies of everything, including your migration card received from the border. Did I say make copies? Plus extra copies of your passport will ensure no issues while running around Kiev with no passport for two weeks or more…

Now lets talk about how it all went…

First off, I will make clear that you will have an appointment to get in. Read my other article above and make sure that you get a verified (Personally call them! They do speak English!) appointment. The guard at the front door hates English and he only points at a sign that says, “Appointment Necessary!” Without an appointment and you are not dying on their steps! You will not get in…

I had an appointment and it still took almost an hour to get in…

Second have all paper work ready. If you have any doubts? Do not walk in the door. Get all of it ready before hand. Have it in a folder and have it ready to show anyone who asks about if you are ready. It seems that a crime is committed and all hell breaks loose if someone gets to the visa office and you are not ready…

I finally convinced them that I was an hour late for a verified appointment and they allowed me to go inside the consulate. Once inside I was asked for the twentieth time, “Is all your paper work ready?” I squelched a smile and said, “Dah” (Which means yes, but in my case it was all I could do and not put the American sarcasm in the word and say “DUH!”)

After all my trying to be ready, I failed at one thing and I took comfort in the fact that everyone who asked is my paperwork ready failed also. My photo was the wrong size…

As I talked about earlier, the photo has to physically be 3.5 X 4.5 cm, not almost that size, but exactly that size. They have a little template that they make you dismantle your application and cut the photo to the proper size. It is a good reason to have extra copies of everything. I am lucky that I have learned the hard way and by the time I was done, I just was able to satisfy the requirements…

I was told that I could pick up the visa on August 13th at 3:00 pm, 2012 and not one second sooner. Since I am American I have to wait the full amount of time and since I had a Telex, I did not have to wait 20 or 21 days to get my visa. The extra days is due to possible Invitation delays…

Tidbit of information: My visa was ready on the day I applied and it says so on the visa, but they delayed my entry into Russia until the 13th of August. So instead of a true 1 year visa, I sat in Ukraine 2 weeks and lost two weeks of my stay in Russia. Yes that is why I love Russia! They are govern-mentally challenged at times…

I paid my visa fee of 250 dollars and they keep your passport for the whole time. Hence make sure you have a copy of your passport…

Then you go and do what ever you want to do, within reason of course in Ukraine and wait patiently to get you passport back, with visa intact hopefully…

Now the day I went to pick up my visa, I had to sit outside for another hour waiting to get my visa and passport. Yes I had another appointment and such. It reminded me of doctor visits in the USA. Hurry up get to the doctor and two hours later he sees you for 10 minutes…

I finally got in to the visa office and  my passport was there, with visa and it was time to go home… 🙂

Lets reiterate the main things for a smooth visa session with the Russian Kiev consulate…

1. 3.5 X 4.5 cm photo

2. Electronic visa application from web

3. 250 dollars in American money

4. copies and more copies

5. Invitation: There is a whole variety of invitation in Russia and a tourist invitation will not work for a business visa. Now what you are buying when it comes to Invitation and believe you me a Telex Invitation is superior over all others…

6. Most important last things: Lots of patience and the top of the list; Make sure you get an verified appointment…

Windows to Russia…

I took a dozen videos and lots of pictures while sitting watching the world go by in a Russian train. What was I taking pictures and videos of? Good question…

I was filming the new factories and warehouses that have been built for hundreds of kilometers along the rail tracks. Brand new and in many places the rail lines have been doubled to handle the new loads of cargo…

I know about these changes, because I travel these tracks very often and I have watched 4 to 5 years of incredible growth happening. It was this trip that it all hit me and everything that I am watching happen this year now all makes sense. The grain games, the silent infiltration of farm equipment, no media on factory expansion, no media on warehouse expansion and in fact just plain silence on the huge growth that is happening in Russia…

Want a tidbit of news? I suspect that one day soon, you in America will see Russian chicken in the stores. Russia has silently increased chicken production 100 times and what with the WTO indoctrination. Soon there will be a Russian chicken in you pot. Just something that could happen. I know that we are flush with Russian chickens now and I do not see American chicken anymore anywhere…

Who is behind all this Russian chicken? Good question! I see Tyson as one of the big players, behind the scenes… (There goes more jobs from America…)

In fact Russia is working real hard to make sure that you (West) do not think anything is happening here at all and Western companies are behind it all. The fact is, Western companies are silently moving themselves into Asia and now Russia is prime game for cheap labor and taxes…

Don’t take my word on it! Look around and open your eyes…

Tiny example: Even an American company such as General Motors is made in the rest of the world: The head of GM bragged in a speech in China that 70% of GM’s cars are made outside the USA. We use our tax money to bail them out and we get to watch as cars are made in other countries for our use and there profit…

Russia is very silent, just as China was very silent for years about the growth and expansion. I fact the East does not believe in bragging about growth and they actually spend more effort to hide the fact that things are growing and going good…

I watch Russia do things and these things confused me at first, but now it is clear what is happening. Russia does not let a USA disaster go by and not use it too her advantage…

Example: In the USA the corn crops are really devastated and I have seen pictures from friends that prove this. I mean corn two foot high and brown and dead. Ears of corn with no kernels on them. Russia is not one to lay back and let a good drought happening in America to slip by. Russia declares that she is having a drought and grain will be effected. When in fact I see more land being harvested, more rain, more irrigation systems in effect and more grain than anytime I have every been here…

Then it all hit me, while I did some thinking’s on the train. Russia is learning to play hardball…

I grew up in America and watched Americans live by the rule of, “Never Waste a Good Crisis!”

While Russia still does not understand that concept very well, they are learning and I see that in things like, the Grain Situation…

Russia is starting to learn to not waste a “Good Crises from America!” Besides there is so many, that America makes it easy to pick and chose what crises that you can use to your advantage. China learned a long time ago how to do this, Russia is just a little slow…

Russia does not want you too know what is happening in reality, hence they do not like to shout about what is going on, but they have learned that they have to spout about somethings, to distract the West from other things… 🙂

Perfect example of USA bailout money expansion:

General Motors Making Russian Expansion – Having had success in China, General Motors is making plans for a major expansion in America’s other Cold War rival, Russia. Specifically, GM CEO Dan Akerson is hoping that the Russian market can bail out his ailing Adam Opel GP division. If successful GM’s Russian adventure will boost its stock by demonstrating that it can expand its overseas operations….

We used it successfully to expand in China and now lets do it in Russia!

And you people call me Un-America. The truth is I am pro-America, but anti-government and anti-corporate! If that makes me Un-American in your eyes, then so be it, but I want a strong America and I do not mean strong in debt and weapons. I mean strong in peace, harmony and morals!

America needs to join the world, not try to be the world…

The USA officials who are familiar with reports of the submarine patrolling in the Gulf of Mexico said the vessel was a nuclear-powered Akula-class attack submarine, one of Russia’s quietest submarines. It was in the Gulf of Mexico for almost a month…

Are you scared yet? The Western media wants you to be and I will help them!

Hey – you had an evil Russian Nuke Sub, swimming silently around around like in a goldfish bowl, in the Gulf of Mexico. It is brimmed with nukes and was undetected by the greatest technology in the world. No one knew it was there untill it wagged its tail at the USA and went to terrorize another part of the world…

You should be very scared and hide in your homes…

You should be very scared and spend trillions on weapons of mass destruction…

You should be! OMG run the Russians are coming…

Time to go home, nothing new here…
