everyone is waiting now... choices were made, weakness exposed, and the girl is ugly.

now let's have fun :

An idea for Southpark:

it's called the haunted slot machine that cartman bough from an asset foreclosure in an old arcade shop in town.

the slot machine has only: theater, school, military check point etc... and the 7777 is of course the kremlin

they are though that if they hit the jackpot they will be able to spend a night with the ugly propaganda girl from russia (russia with love).

of course they become crazy playing it.

at the same time at the cia, a lot of explosions are reported around russia... etc... would be a fun episode.

I have a good one for southpark: drakputin (or his drakqueen or he has been beaten by a vampire going to his darkshitlord in his remote island (so his thirstiness for blood)... both way ).

I want to share with you all the ongoing Open All-Russian Competition of Young Talents, “Sinjaja Ptitsa” (“Blue Bird”):

http://ptica.tv

The kids, performing at this competition are fabulous, and their performances would at times be difficult for an experienced artist. Two of the kids from each show are voted by jury to go to the grand finale, while the other kids are selected by the people’s votes through Internet.

And what’s best, the performances do not require one to know Russian, they are accessible to every human being, they speak the international language of dance, music, song, acrobatics.

Below are some clips of the performances from the first airing that especially caught my attention; more performances can be found following in the thumbnails under the video frame:

"Artist was detained in Moscow after trying to set fire to the main entrance of FSB headquarters. "

"Artist arrived on the place with a canister of gasoline, doused the front door and then set it on fire. He did not take any attempts to escape from the place of performance."

"According to human rights activist, Pavlensky's wife Oksana Shalygina had said that arson was an act of art."

Balthazar, please, I try to keep this thread for the good and light and peaceful stuff, and it's enough having to deal with the dark forces that try to malign and pervert all the good that is left on this earth.

I think it's a positive stuff. It's made my day.

Russia Insider in doing a crowd-funding campaign at the moment:

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/russia-insider-keep-the-media-honest#/

Let's send the world a message! Let's push back!

After launching Russia Insider in September 2014, people have sent in over $100,000 in donations, propelling our once small media criticism blog in to a widely cited publication with over 60 million page views.

When we started this site a year ago, we were just a couple of Western expats, working and living in Russia, who didn’t agree with what we were hearing in the media about Russia - but it was only after we started reading Russia-themed headlines day-in and day-out over the last year, that we all started to realize how corrupt and crazy the media are. WE HAD NO IDEA HOW BAD IT WAS...

...

One of their objectives strikes a special cord with me:

....

There is so much to say about Russia, good positive stuff that isn't being written up, business, sports and culture, it is an extraordinary country, badly misrepresented by the media which, it is no exaggeration to say, seem to actually hate Russia, and seem willing to push any lie or slander they can - it is psychopathic hatred.

Watch Morozko (Father Frost) and Other Favorite Russian New Year’s Fairytales and Songs

https://futuristrendcast.wordpress.com/2015/12/31/lets-watch-morozko-father-frost-and-other-favorite-russian-new-years-fairytales-and-songs/

New Year is the year’s biggest holiday in Russia. There are lots of very good movies, cartoons, concerts and various songs/performances that are dedicated to it.

One of the eternal classics is the old Russian fairytale made into a film in 1964, MOROZKO, for some reason translated to English as Jack Frost, but better translated as Father Frost.

Watch MOROZKO here with English subs! (TIP: if your Eng subs don’t work, click on CC button on the bottom right of your Youtube screen.)

Vladimir Putin Approves $4B "Russian Disneyland"
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/vladimir-putin-approves-4b-russian-903006

Russian authorities have approved construction of a $4 billion "Russian Disneyland" theme park in the Kaluga region, 200 kilometers from Moscow.

The Magical World of Russia will be developed by Los Angeles-based Moschanko Invesment Group and designed by Goddard Group.

The project was approved by Kaluga region governor Anatoly Artamonov and Russia's president Vladimir Putin, the Russian news agency TASS reported.

"The Magical World of Russia will include several sections, including those offering interactive entertainment and learning programs for children," Artamonov was quoted as saying by TASS, adding that the theme park will also have several hotels and the world's biggest aqua park.

According to Artamonov, the project will be funded privately, and no government money will be spent.

"Using Russian folklore, legends and history, we are actively working to make this a theme park that will reflect the culture and lore of Russia — and one that will be built to a quality level equal to, or better than, any other world-class theme park today," Goddard Group's chairman Gary Goddard said in a statement, quoted by San Bernardo Valley Business Journal.

The Magical World of Russia will be built on 220 hectares on the border of Moscow and Kaluga regions.

Incidentally, two other theme park projects are already in progress in Russia, executed separately by DreamWorks Animation and NBC Universal.

DreamWorks' Moscow theme park, Dream Island, is scheduled to enter the construction stage later this year, to be inaugurated in 2018 as part of a larger, $2.1 billion project that also includes similar theme parks in Russia's other major cities, St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg.

Construction of NBCU's theme park Moscow is to begin in 2017.

Good news is that they are looking beyond the big cities such as Moscow and Sankt Peterburg. The location for this project is perfect. Hopefully projects such as this one will put an end to the rapid emigration of residents from the central Russian oblasts to Moscow and improve the living conditions in the small towns and villages.
