Windows to Russia

The sun poked its head out for the first time in Murmansk, Russia on this Sunday (Jan. 30th, 2012) after nearly two months of polar nights. They have celebrations of the sun’s return that are rooted in a centuries-old tradition of the Sami indigenous people on the Kola Peninsula. Murmansk today marked the event with a concert and a feast…

This is a time to celebrate because it seems that in the old days they worried that the sun may not come back if they did not please the sun. So much to-do is made so that the sun will be happy and keep coming back again and again…

The sun stayed above the horizon for almost 30 minutes today, and they say that after two months of no sun, they party hearty…

I do not blame them because, even though we don’t lose the sun in Moscow, we stay dark most of the day. It gets depressing at times…

Our days are getting longer… 🙂

“My brother, whom I have never seen and did not know, was buried here, I don’t even know where exactly,” Mr. Putin said flatly during an annual wreath-laying at Piskaryovskoye Cemetery in St. Petersburg, where 470,000 civilians and soldiers were buried in mass graves. A memorial plaque at the site states that 641,803 people died of starvation in the city between 1941 and 1944.

“My parents told me that children were taken from their families in 1941, and my mother had a child taken from her — with the goal of saving him,” he said at the event, which marks the anniversary of the blockade’s end. “They said he had died, but they never said where he was buried. ”

Late Friday, a St. Petersburg organization, We Remember Them All By Name announced that its researchers had found a record of Viktor V. Putin, who was born in 1940 and died in 1942. Aleksandr Nesmeyanov, of the organization, said he had found evidence that 10 men and 5 women with the last name Putin were buried in the mass graves, but only one, the baby Viktor, had the patronymic Vladimirovich.

Mr. Putin visits this site most years to commemorate the German blockade, when residents of the city were dying in such numbers that army engineers set off explosives in farmers’ fields and dumped bodies in the holes. In the book “First Person,” he said that his mother was so close to starvation that she lost consciousness and “they laid her out with the corpses” until someone heard her moaning. His father, hospitalized with war wounds, set aside his rations to feed her.

Mr. Putin, born in 1952, was his parents’ third son but was the only one to survive. The first Putin son died in infancy.

This is interesting: Roscomos the Russian Federal Space Agency requested the help and expertise of the United States to take part in the investigation of the Phobos Grunt automatic interplanetary apparatus. This request was after a rebuke by the US over one of the versions of failure was that the Russian interplanetary station might have been affected by a U.S. radar…

In fact the Western media made big jokes and the government in America made scoffs about Russia and her space program and then fed lots of Kool-Aid to the masses about how Russia is using the US as a scapegoat to cover her short comings in space…

But alas it now seems that the United States has officially refused to take part in an investigation into the causes of the failure of the Phobos Grunt automatic interplanetary apparatus, Roscosmos Deputy chief Anatoly Shilov told journalists on Thursday… Itar-Tass

During a Russian investigation into the causes of the failure of the Phobos-Grunt interplanetary station many different versions were studied, including a version that the Russian interplanetary station might have been affected by a U.S. radar. This version was studied on Russian type radar ground facilities, Anatoly Shilov has confirmed…

Russia gave America the chance to back up their scoffs and media jokes, but it looks as though someone put – someone else on the spot. End of story. End of discussion… 🙂

PS: Seems to me that we would be glad to help out in an investigation of sorts like this. We cannot ever learn enough about space and things that happen in space. Every detail is very important for lives not to be lost in space and more equipment lost in space. So the fact that we did not jump at the opportunity to help Russia to improve their space program and give America more knowledge about space and happenings, makes me contemplate about what really did happen to the Phobos Grunt?

I had to smile when I saw a blog article several days ago. It was from a newbie in Russia. They literally had a heart attack when they found the restrooms at the train stations. I had an interesting reaction also in Russia to the very same toilets when I first came here. Now I think that they are great…

In the East you will find these type of toilets to be common place and once you get the hang of them, they are really okay…

At least your doggy does not get stuck very easy!

Soon after his arrival in Moscow, McFaul met with a number of opposition figures at the U.S. Embassy last Tuesday, irking the Kremlin. (Link)

“In all likelihood, he [McFaul] will soon bring me his credentials,” Medvedev said, adding that “these credentials will naturally be accepted.”

U.S. President Barack Obama had informally agreed McFaul’s candidacy with him, Medvedev said.

“I hope that he [McFaul] will do a good job but of course he needs to realize that he is working in the Russian Federation, not in the United States of America, and that our country has its specifics, just as any ambassador has his mandate,” he said.

“I’ll leave everything else without comment,” Medvedev added.

Hmm! Everyday McFaul is looking more like he is trying to dupe Russia and Russia is on him like a fly on stink…

Remember that I said in the article the other day that McFaul is hiding in the American Embassy after he got called on the carpet for his sneaky crap…

Looks like a humbling trip to the Kremlin is needed and an apology is definitely needed…

But hey! He has met with the Russian political opposition and political opposition media. But he forgot to make his appointment official in Russia. If he keeps it up he may not be accepted…

The message is out, that talking with Medvedev may be a good idea for a future in Russia…

Do you think he wanna go home?

PS: What happened to professionalism? If this happened in America…

Prime Minister Vladimir Putin accused the United States of attempts to dominate the world and challenging internal political procedures in other countries as a tool for achieving that goal.

He spoke about foreign policy at the end of his meeting with Tomsk students that lasted about 3.5 hours on Wednesday, January 25. One of them asked Putin what could be the reasons for the negative Western reaction to the parliamentary elections in Kazakhstan.

“The reason is the U.S. foreign policy doctrine. They want to control everything… sometimes I have the impression that the United States does not need allies, that it needs vassals,” the prime minister said.

“They are not prepared to cooperate on equal terms either with Europe or us. Cooperation on equal terms means determining threats together and working out a system of response to them together. They reject that flatly,” he said, referring to the missile defense system the U.S. is building in Europe.

According to Putin, one of the American ways to influence other countries is to “doubt everything and say that you do not meet certain standards” but “they (America) works out these standards themselves”.

The Russian authorities are ready to cooperate with public organizations in the country but will not allow them to turn into a tool for external influence, Putin said.

“An attempt to use our non-governmental organizations by foreign states in their own interests for securing their own foreign policy goals with regard to our country must entail rejection. This must not be allowed to happen,” he said.

“The authorities must respond and listen, no matter what they say and how abuse their language may be. It’s indecent, but all the same [we] must listen to them,” Putin said. “The only thing we must not allow is allowing anyone to use anything inside the country for achieving their own foreign policy goals with regard to our country.”

Speaking of the elections in Kazakhstan, he recalled that the number of parties represented in the national parliament has increased from one to three. “That’s a step forward. That’s good,” he said.

That cup of chicory (coffee) is really good while I play cat and mouse with the DHS. They are the cat and they are trying to eat Windows to Russia the little mouse. They do not appreciate what Windows to Russia has to say and  do not like the fact the Windows to Russia is having freedom of expression in Russia…

Today as in just about everyday! We where crashed by several means! This is instigated by the US government. Today is no exception. Thousands and thousands of hits recorded in a minute, finally brought us down again. We finally got a system reboot and got out from the clutches of the DHS and her abuse. It was an intentional non hidden attack, that flagrantly tells websites that we are the USA government and do not care about the fact that you know it. We do not spoof our IP or anything. We are DHS and do what we want…

The attack came from a slew of IP’s in the NetRange of 216.81.80.0 – 216.81.95.255. When my system blocked one then another took its place and when a sufficient bottle neck had been formed the sight crashed. It was a coordinated attack from multiple IP’s all owned by the Department of Homeland Security…

So this is just a little sample of what it is about to be a website under gov. attack. The problem is that I am not radical. I just tell some real truths and some people in the world do not want these truths to get out…

Just like the real truth that the US gov. hates the internet and free speech that comes with it! That should scare you unless you make sock monkeys and embroider all the time on a website…

It is okay one day we will be all cut off from each other again and no world communication except snail mail…

That American backed financial destruction of Iran theme, only gets weaker when one learns that Iran is dumping the dollar $ in its trade with Russia for rials and rubles, Then it shudders some more as we realize that it is a similar move to ones already made in its trade with China and Japan. As for India, its also refuses to stop buying Iranian oil and thumbed it’s nose at the USA, by trading gold for oil. India incidentally is already using the yuan with China in trade. As Russia and China have also been trading in rubles and yuan for more than a full year and Japan and China are now promoting direct trading in yen and yuan. Then to ice the cake, Iran and China, have agreed that all new trade and joint investments will be settled in yuan and rial. The East is inter trading and bartering as the dollar is becoming worthless. Other Eastern countries will join the parade as the dollar backed by the US sinks into the sunset…

The dollar will not do well when only the US wants and has dollars. If the world demands payment in other forms of goods and currencies then the dollar becomes past tense. The dollar ‘s strengths only lies in its use and acceptance as a world currency…

This is not the stuff that your news is made up of. Your news is made up to order for you by the government of America to guide you in your thoughts on the world…

The main fact of this article is that: India has reportedly agreed to pay Tehran in gold for the oil it buys, in a move aimed at protecting Delhi from US-sanctions targeting countries who trade with Iran. China, another buyer of Iranian oil, may follow Delhi’s lead. This just opens the door for Russia to take payment for oil in gold also…

That with more and more banks in the world switching what they use as a main currency or refusing to hold the approved dollar denomination in account according to what is expected by the USA. Makes for a very shaky future if you covet the US dollar. Most transactions with dollars are now short term, make quick money and unstable flows of currency that moves by huge volumes daily looking for a real home to settle at. There is so many excess dollars in the world that one day they are all going to float up on the shores of America and then what is America going to do to cover all that cash?

It looks to me that America is pushing the EU into the same position that India, China, Japan and Russia are doing. To do business with countries like Iran and such. They have to send the dollar away and use more reasonably backed methods to pay. They have to exclude the dollar because America has put so many stipulations on its use that usage is becoming a hassle. That does not point to a good future for the dollar. It may be king now but every country that uses another currency or commodity to deal and trade, are taking the foundation out from under the dollar and once that foundation weakens too much, the building will fall…
