Evil Russians vs the good guys…

Evil Russians charged with espionage, one arrested in New York

evilIs it a spy, or is it an investigative journalist? Does anyone care any longer? Does anyone know? Does it matter? The U.S. is laying the groundwork for a move against evil Russian media, a move against evil Chinese media, a move against enhanced border control, a move enhancing visa control, and a move to shut the Americans in; just because…. (Terrorism you know?)

Americans seem more and more like a group of unfortunately brain-damaged people sitting in the lounge of an insane asylum, making crazy quilts, trying to put back together a world they deconstructed and can no longer understand, nor, therefore care to understand…

One thing seems clear and that is the extreme vulnerability of the U.S. to anything resembling reality and so if presented with an actual existential threat, they will crumble. Therefore the need, desire, and urgency to seal the world out, as we coerce the inner peasants…

From the Guardian: They were also accused of helping a “leading Russian state-owned news organization,” gather information which would help the Russia’s foreign intelligence service, the SVR…

The complaint does not name the offending news organization, but the complaint adds: “The News Organization has been publicly identified by former SVR agents as an organization that is sometimes used by Russian intelligence to gain access to and gather intelligence under cover of the news media.”

In recent years, the evil Kremlin has made a push into western countries with state organizations such as evil RT and evil Sputnik launching English-language versions and opening bureaus around the world.”

Coffee-iconThese organizations that mimic the western organizations and establish information about the west, within the western borders; become attacked by western governments, as spy organizations/terrorists…

Poroshenko and Ukraine…

PoroshenkoPoroshenko the yes man. Poroshenko, president of Ukraine? Poroshenko the Chocolate Baron. Poroshenko the stoolie…

This entire undertaking has been an act bearing despair from the very start. A Washington driven result goal, to encompass, subdue and restrain Russia with NATO partners, structure, and desires…

So far the method has not gone well for anybody involved and has just succeeded in producing meddled with a country of people, who are closer to Russia than all other country’s, but since their geological place makes them Russian like, they have become pawns in an exceptionally risky round of “Atomic Chicken…”

None of the culprits of this method think about Ukraine. Even Russia will (be forced) forlorn Ukraine, to protect Russia before long. The Ukrainian people who voted to join the EU would be advised to quit being astonished by false guarantees and wake up to the truth quick, that their best associate in the world, is Russia. That one (Russia,) soon lost…

Presently Ukraine is in an enormous money related wreckage and in a wicked common war stoked by the desire of a little, however perilous gathering of western people who need to control the world…

Poroshenko the Chocolate King…

We are seeing wholesale disloyalty to a country of people and if Poroshenko was a genuine patriot with positive plan towards his nation he would not have acknowledged position of boss Washington manikin in any case. On the off-chance that he had honest to goodness charitable desire to use his personal riches and impact to help his kin and his nation he would have taken influence not by clandestine subversion backed by the Chicago mafia, but by open majority rule, as it implies. Presently he has dug himself a cesspool of a pit and he is driving his nation by the nose into the pool with him…

Poroshenko the Chocolate Baron does his job well in Ukraine and he will have a place of reverence in the west, alongside Georgia’s, ex-president, Sassy the Saakashvili…

Vladimir Putin held a meeting with permanent members of the Security Council to discuss the situation in Ukraine.

PRESIDENT OF RUSSIA VLADIMIR PUTIN: Good afternoon, colleagues.

January 23, 2015, 14:30

We are witnessing a dramatic deterioration of the situation in southeastern Ukraine, in Donetsk People’s Republic and Lugansk People’s Republic. In this connection I would like to inform you again that a week ago, on Thursday, I sent a letter to the President of Ukraine, a written proposal to withdraw heavy weapons – artillery and multiple rocket launchers – to such a distance from which it would be impossible to fire at populated areas.

I would like to inform you further that this proposal almost completely coincided with the requirements of the official Kiev. You know that there may be one disputed area along the line of separation between the parties to the conflict. So we suggested that weapons and heavy equipment should be withdrawn to the line that Kiev authorities themselves consider fair and corresponding to the agreements reached in Minsk on September 19, 2014.

Unfortunately, we received no clear answer to our proposal; in fact, we also saw the reverse action, namely the Kiev government has given an official order to launch large-scale combat operations along almost the entire perimeter of contact between the opposing sides.

The result: dozens of dead and wounded, and not only among servicemen on both sides, but, even more tragically, there has been loss of life among the civilian population, including children, the elderly and women. The artillery, multiple rocket launchers and aircraft are firing indiscriminately, directly at densely populated areas.

All of this is happening to the accompaniment of propaganda slogans about the quest for peace and the search for those responsible. The responsibility is borne by those who issue such criminal orders. The people who do this should know that there is no other way to solve such conflicts but through peace negotiations and political means. We often hear, including from today’s official Kiev, that this is their preferred method of addressing issues, but the reality is quite different. I hope that common sense will eventually triumph.

I would like to call for a moment of silence to honor the victims, including those who died at a bus stop in Donetsk.

(Moment of silence.)

Thank you.

Happening in Russia?

What is happening in Russia? Good question and I am glad you asked…

China and Russia signed a deal to build the longest continuous railroad in the world. It travels from Moscow to Beijing and will cost 240 + billion dollars. This deal signed at the same time that China and Russia signed the oil gas deal worth 400 + billion dollars. I guess China and Russia decided that the west could only handle the oil/gas deal and would pop a cork over both deals. Kinda sad to think the west would possibly do that. Just think, a 5 day trip turned into 30 hours by railway. Time to travel to China when done…

The Kremlin awarded the building of the huge project to China Railway High-speed (CRH), a subsidiary of the state-controlled China Railway (CR). They will work with the local firm Uralvagonzavod after deciding to drop the French company, Alstom, after France has shown that they are unreliable…

Looks like Iran will get the way past due S300 missile systems and in my eyes they should get the upgraded S400 to compensate for being treated badly by Russia. Russia was wrong and I have said so many times. This should never have happened and I think that Russia is understanding, the hard way, about the treacherous American ways in life…

Once again Russia; do not trust America or the west for any reason, what so ever…

Once again Russia; do not stab friends in the back, like you did Iran…

Ukraine wants to declare war upon Russia. A member of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Sergei Pashinsky, who chairs the Parliamentary Committee on National Security and Defense, announced Kiev’s desire to impose martial law in the East Ukraine and declare war on Russia. According to the Sergei , the decision though made, but then postponed for financial reasons…

Yes, there is that money issue in Ukraine! Seems lack of funding stands in the way of war progress and annihilation of Russia. I am glad for I live in Russia and I really like Ukraine staying on their side of the border… 🙂

The stupid award goes to Obama. For he showed his ignorance at the State of the Union Address, 2015…

“Today, it is America that stands strong and united with our allies, while Russia is isolated, with its economy in tatters,” Obama said.

“We’re upholding the principle that bigger nations can’t bully the small — by opposing Russian aggression, supporting Ukraine’s democracy, and reassuring our NATO allies,” Obama added.

Did he really make such stupid statements?

Yes he did…

What I am Paying in Russia…

This is a simple post; simply what I am paying for things everyday in Russia and I will add to this post as well as stick it to the top of the page. I am doing this because I see a western world that says the world I live in, is in collapse. The world that I live in (is Russia) and it is not in ruins. Why even our president (Obama) is spouting conceitedness and lies unbecoming to a leader. Obama acts like a spoiled child sitting in the dirt at the school playground, having a fit until he gets his way…

AK-47 Made in USA

AK-47Now this is something close to my heart and has saved my life several times in the past. The AK-47 is the best small arms weapon bar none. They literally do not fail and they can be stripped and reassembled fast…

AK-47; Meanwhile in Russia

This Thursday, the Kalashnikov Group (AK-47) gave the green light to the US-based Russian Weapons Company (RWC), which had earlier announced plans to dodge anti-Russian sanctions and begin a domestic manufacture of the famous Russian brand.This is due to the huge demand for the AK-47 in America and therefore, they will make them in America…

The AK-47 is what I call, “More than one way to skin a cat!”

AK-47At first I was kind of pissed about the fact that Russia did this, then I realized that there is a method to the madness and having a weapon of the quality and proof of an AK-47 will give Americans an advantage, when hell breaks loose in the Western Empire. Russia is not shy about taking advantage of all aspects of loop holes available…

The new US manufacture called Kalashnikov USA and will make the full range of Russian weapons. From shotguns, rifles, to the élite 9x19mm carbine, so popular in movies. They will be up and running by second quarter 2015 and so far have not told where the plant’s site is, in America…

When I left America, I gave away a AK-47, Chinese SKS Type 56, and a Mosin Nagant Jungle Carbine. The last of my weapons of choice, as I struggled to survive in America. Nothing matches those three weapons and I wish I had been able to bring them with me. They were left in good hands, but I will never see them again, most likely in my lifetime…

ak-47
M1944 Mosin-Nagant

America, you better buy these rifles as fast as they make them and I bet they will make sure that you have plenty of ammo for them also. Do it now, for if you hesitate, the government will take these gems of the small arms world away from you also…

Russia: Blue Trolley Ride!

Many years ago, Sveta made her first video almost all by herself and I think it is good. She says the song is about a Blue Trolley! So she took a video of her trolley ride home, put her favorite song with it and here is what she got in return. This was many years ago, but as good now as then…

 

Bulat OkudzhavaTHE LAST TROLLEY BUS

When I’m in trouble and totally done
and when all my hope I abandon
I get on the blue trolley bus on the run,
the last one, at random.

Night trolley, roll on sliding down the street,
around the boulevards keep moving
to pick up all those who are wrecked and in need
of rescue from ruin.

Night trolley bus will you please open your doors !
On wretched cold nights, I can instance,
your sailors would come, as a matter of course,
to give help.

So many a time they have lent me a hand
to help me get out of grievance…
Imagine, there is so much kindness behind
this silence and stillness.

Last trolley rolls round the greenery belt
and Moscow, like river, dies down…
the hammering blood in my temples I felt calms down,
calms down.

* * * * * * * * * *

Moscow is full of Blue Trolleys…

I am reviving some more lost posts that I have found and will do so for several more over the next few weeks. We were hit very hard by hackers and internet attacks, done by the U.S. government and it has taken years to get even a small part of the lost data back. This is a treasure that we are pleased to get back online properly. Original was done in 2008…

I like the sepia effect that she gave the video, makes it look old! It is some of that old soul that I keep talking about in Russia, that deep soul from under all the superficial issues and things of life…

I am going to listen to the song! I like it….

Svet: My Circus Translation!

Hello,

Today I want to publish a translation of the song what I used for my “Circus Clip”. That is a song by Bulat Okudzhava.

THE CIRCUS

This is not a park you visit to relax and meditate.
In a circus one has got to fall and rise, not sit and wait.

Sliding round, round & round right beneath the top,
one must not have any doubts or think of something like a flop.

Dressing up for the occasion, doesn’t really mean a thing,
our smile is insincere and it isn’t worth a pin
in the face of purple plumes worn by the horses on the hop,
in the face of daring actors who don’t fear but cherish hope.

Human Hope, you are a creature on the wing, you are so sweet!
Your old holy substance is amazing, beautiful indeed.

Even if we lose all hopes ( or we have never had such things ),
you are great at spreading out your amazing magic wings.

Over circus rings and stages, over fairs, shows and balls,
over horror of spectators and alarm of know-it-alls.

You appear as if risen from the dead, alive again,
to the eye of those who fall and rise, – not sit in vain.

I think the words are very true and I think that you can change the word Circus on word Life. And it will be still very true!
Do you agree?

Best wishes for All!
Live bravely!

Svet

(PS: The Russian original version below)

Булат Окуджава

Цирк

Юрию Никулину

Цирк –не парк, куда вы ходите грустить и отдыхать.
В цирке надо не высиживать, а падать и взлетать
и под куполом, под куполом, под куполом скользя,
ни о чем таком сомнительном раздумывать нельзя.

Все костюмы наши праздничные – смех и суета.
Все улыбки наши пряничные не стоят ни черта.
Перед красными султанами на конских головах,
перед лицами, таящими надежду, а не страх.

О Надежда, ты крылатое такое существо!
Как прекрасно твое древнее святое вещество:
даже если вдруг потеряна (как будто не была),
как прекрасно ты распахиваешь два своих крыла

над манежем и над ярмаркою праздничных одежд,
над тревогой завсегдатаев, над ужасом невежд,
похороненная заживо, являешься опять
тем, кто жаждет не высиживать, а падать и взлетать.

(1965)

Time to Think Planting…

Time for Planting; putting seeds or young plants in the ground to grow...

TimeTime does fly and this past weekend, Sveta went to the village again to finish the paper work on the village home. The laws changed several years ago and she had to get all the paper work up to date, to keep from having ownership issues at a future date…

While I was slightly (Okay a bunch,) jealous of her going and I had to stay home with Boza. I have used the time to decipher what I am going to plant this year, at the village. It will be items that easily store for the winter in our Moscow home…

Vegetables like beets and turnips for long storage. Then items like radishes and grasses (parsley and such,) for short-term immediate use. Potatoes are to hard on me, as I am a diabetic, but beets and turnips do not bother me and besides, Sveta loves them also…

Therefore, beets and turnips it is and maybe just beets. For Russians have no greater desire for anything but borsch to eat at every meal it seems. I am finding myself starting to feel the same way, as I checked the bin for red beets today, to make a beet soup tonight…

Maybe just sugar beets and red beets, they are very easy to grow and between the two, you can have lots of cooking fun. This is what I am deciding as time flies, as I am getting anxious to get to the village and spend half a year there…

* * * * * * * * * *

This time we also are going to buy another or two dehydrators for fruit. I think three dehydrators going full-time this summer, will give enough dried apples, cherries, currant and raspberries to last the winter. Last year, we gave them all away and what we had left, we ate in a few weeks…

In our village, apples are abundant and I am going to store them for the long winters in Russia…

* * * * * * * * * *

This time I also am going to get out the pressure cooker and can some items up for the winter. It is time to become self-sufficient and travel the path of being off grid more and more everyday. The world is getting a never-ending psychosis of deadlier proportions, even as you read this…

Cyber Security(?) and thoughts…

Cyber Secured Security; an oxymoron; 50 terabytes! Snowden leak reveals massive size of F-35 blueprints hack by China – 🙂

One does have to laugh though when you think the America National Security(?) Agency doesn’t understand that if you have secret information that you wish to keep secure, you don’t keep it on a computer connected to any cyber network, at any time. Surely the wealth of the citizens they have stolen has been enough to buy an extra computer or two? Then keep them off the cyber grid…

Why even Sveta deals everyday with banking systems that are never online (cyber) or on-grid so to say. They are never allowed connected to the world and that begs me to ask, “Why the hell are our national secretes online (cyber) at all and able to hack?”

This is what our government says is happening and therefore, I say our government is inept, inebriated, and or morons… (Anyone for all the above?)

Cyber * * * * * * * * * * Hot Dogs

Q: Why do hot dogs come in packages of ten, but hot dog buns only come in packages of just eight?

A: The thing is, life doesn’t always work out according to plan so be happy with what you’ve got, because you can always get a hot dog..

Bulletproof Monk….

Hot Dogs * * * * * * * * * * Gold

Russia just bought 46 tons of physical gold in December and that was all the while that they told the west that they were selling gold. They drove the price down and then they bought with Dollars that they are dumping…

Hmm…

Gold * * * * * * * * * * Gas

“If Greece has to leave the European Union, we will build our own relations with it, the food ban will not be applicable to it,” Russian Minister of Agriculture Nikolai Fyodorov said…

That gives something for Greece to think of. Then on top of it all, Greece, is the gas pipe connection to Turkey. It could be a great future for Greece, now get out of the EU…

Gas * * * * * * * * * * War

Heck the Ukraine Kiev side, is just bombing the crap out of East Ukraine and no one in the western press cares. Which means that all the sheep in the west think life is a bed of sweet roses in Ukraine, as the people are killed, as they sleep and try to work…

War * * * * * * * * * * Lies

This image is worth a thousand words; this is the march of solidarity in France. The leaders never marched with anyone…

cyber

Lies * * * * * * * * * * Stupid

The western world is…
Well just think about these two items…

1.) Lithuania is putting together a “Russian Invasion Manual…” 🙂
2.) A new study shows that the majority of public school children in the United States are living in poverty…

Just think about what these statements say about the west…

Have a nice day and Russia is looking better all the time…
