In 1918, May 1 became an important public holiday, known as the Day of the International Solidarity of Workers, in the Soviet Union. Most Soviet cities had parades and obligatory workers’ marches on this day until 1990. The Russian Parliament renamed the holiday as Spring and Labor Day in 1992…
People are planting gardens, trees and in general just having a great time. May holidays are big, for we just finally got over a rough winter and it is time to dance and sing….
Media Fusses as Russia’s Floating Nuclear Plant Sets Sail – Sputnik International
As Russia’s state-of-the-art mobile nuclear plant embarks on its first voyage across the Arctic, Greenpeace activists claim that the vessel may pose an environmental threat to the region. Akademik Lomonosov, Russia’s first floating nuclear power plant, has set off from St. Petersburg to Murmansk on its maiden voyage. After the massive vessel is loaded with nuclear fuel there, it will then be towed to Russia’s Far East where it’s expected to provide power to remote settlements located in the country’s Arct
It is nothing new really, nuclear plants have run submarines and warships on & under the oceans for a long time now…
But you would think that Russia has done gone been bad again, with Greenpeace screaming bloody murder and the western press dancing to the same tune…
Greenpeace considers the results of the check at the Mayak nuclear complex insufficient and unconvincing. The check for a possible leakage of ruthenium-106 has just been completed by Rosatom together with experts from the Russian Academy of Sciences Nuclear Safety Institute (IBRAE) and the Federal Biomedical Agency. On 8 December, the commission presented the results of the check at a press-conference in Moscow.
Russia did it and it has been a project that I have followed for many years. It is a dream come true for the Arctic…
Russia sees the future in the Arctic with fossil fuels, transportation and life in general….like with Gaz (GAS) pipelines, Russia just keeps plucking away…
Netanyahu knows War with Iran means WW3 with China and Russia – they come as a package. Netanyahu also knows he is lying for the umpteenth time about a non-existent Iranian bomb. He doesn’t seem to care that his lies could start WW3 & end all intelligent life on the entire planet pic.twitter.com/187HEPt7GP
Netanyahu wants America to go to war again. The deep state wants America to go to war again. The war profiteers want America to go to war again. Again and again. #IranDealpic.twitter.com/5Q3aftqDaz
Russia is a very reliable energy partner. Even in the Soviet days, they always fulfilled their obligations. They even try to do the best they can, when other countries steal and block the transfer of the fossil fuels…
DNC suing Russian copy of lawsuit: The Democratic Party has sued President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, the Russian government and the Wikileaks group, claiming a broad illegal conspiracy to help Trump win the 2016 election…
We so lucky! We had “Mr. War Monger Duke Obama, and they tried to install the Reapers best friend “Killary the Duchess Hillary” and we ended up with the “Red, White and Blue and Killer Patriot, Sir Trump”…. We can’t win for losing…
Nice to read (article below) that a NATO criminal lawyer has recognized that the United States, United Kingdom and French illegal strikes on Syria are in fact very illegal, but even a person with common sense can see that….it was unjustified by any & all means, empires and puppet ruler’s and or puppet states, act arrogant but eventually decline into history…
But must we must live with the wild west actions until they do?
Lieutenant Colonel Kris van der Meij is a Dutch lawyer working at the Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence in Estonia, as part of a team working out how international law applies to the new realm of cyber conflict. The cooperative is an accredited NATO Centre of Excellence although it is not funded directly by NATO. Van der Meij has previously worked as legal adviser at 1st German-Netherlands Corps, one of NATO’s High Readiness Forces headquarters.
Just thinking…
But must we must live with the wild west actions until they do?
No! As a world body we have the right to stop such actions and it will take the world to band together and put some countries that are running amok, in their place…
Time for major changes, before the children get too rowdy…
What a wonderful morning to walk. The weather is changing and my arthritis was out of control, but I pushed through it anyway and walked for seven kilometers this morning. I found lots of neat stuff to look at and wished Svetochka was with me. She has been kinda sick with the flue and was sleeping soundly this morning. (Knock on wood, I have avoided the terrible flue!)
Got lots of things to get done. We are thinking about going to the village, but after this week coming up. It is May Holidays and traveling at May Holidays is just plain stupid. If you are a sane person that is….for at May Holidays, Russians are insane… 😉
The cars are packed with Dacha and Village stuff and off they go to plant their Kitchen Gardens as they are called….this is what I have always talked about! Russians grow their own food when summer hits and there are gardens everywhere, even in the windows and balconies of the flats around Moscow…
In regards to the Lover’s Bridge image above:
Even though the tradition 99% originated in China, the Russians adopted (many moons ago) the tradition of locking your love in a marriage. The bride and the groom must buy a lock, write their names on it, lock it to the bridge and throw the key into the river, in order to keep their love for each other forever!
Us men in Russia are gaining a little bit of status….you know life is good when you actually get Barbershops and not beauty salons!
As always the truth comes out, but the method of delivery (MSM) is lacking for the truth when compared to the lies that propagate hate toward Russia…. So for the ones who want truth about the, “Russian doping scandals?”

Main site: dig it up yourself if you think I messed stuff up…
Nikolay Durmanov, the ex-chief of the Russian anti-doping agency says:
“This will change nothing,” said Nikolay Durmanov. “Yes we can enjoy some moral satisfaction, but in the eyes of the world Russian sport has been painted a rich black color, and there is nothing we can do to wash that reputational stain off this generation. This was an information war waged against us.”
How true it is!

PS: “Big fail for the West, but no one in the west is listening… (Rodchenkov’s Russian doping claims fail to stand up in court)” Therefore, no one is held accountable for the lies that were ensued from this fiasco in the first place…
In this set of clips, Americans are shown how to spot Communists. For example: “If a person consistently reads and advocates the views expressed in a Communist publication, he may be a Communist. If a person defends the activities of Communist nations while consistently attacking the domestic and foreign policies of the United States, she may be a Communist.[…] If a person does all these things, over a period of time, he MUST be a Communist!” The video also goes on to demonstrate the evils of Communists stealing one’s daughter away to work on a collective farm.
Frighting isn’t it?
Soon we will play; “How to spot a Russian!”
Oh Wait….we are already doing that…
