4. SOUNDBITE (Russian) Marina Smirnova, festival organiser:
The Flea Market art project has not been affected by the financial crisis. Maybe because people come here not only for business - of course if there were no business success there were no exhibitors - but rather for the atmosphere here. Music of the 40s and 50s, cup of tea offered to every guest, friendly atmosphere and the desire of all exhibitors to tell people the story of the goods they sell - this is essential.

the flea market is a rummage sale, where everything should be sold for next to nothing. It's a rule, it's the law of the flea market. It's not an antique shop, there is a difference between flea markets and antique shops. But here (at the Flea Market Festival) the prices are absolutely antique.

LEAD IN :
Flea markets are a part of every self-respecting city.
Berlin, London and Paris have numerous outdoor bazaars that draw thousands of visitors every weekend.
Almost all Moscow's flea markets disappeared in Soviet times when the state heightened repression of private trade and speculation.
Those who broke the law could face long prison terms.
But now flea markets are becoming popular once again.
STORYLINE:
Moscow's Flea Market festival is a treasure trove of artifacts.
Held three times each year, buyers can find everything from china ornaments to cast iron household items.

Pachirisu can be found in northern, cold areas such as northern Canada or Northern Russia. Can also be found in Alaska. They are slightly hard to find, as mine took me a good 20 minutes of searching.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Crocodiles (subfamily Crocodylinae) or true crocodiles are large semiaquatic reptiles that live throughout the tropics in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia. Crocodylinae, all of whose members are considered true crocodiles, is classified as a biological subfamily. A broader sense of the term crocodile, Crocodylidae that includes Tomistoma, is not used in this article. The term crocodile here applies to only the species within the subfamily of Crocodylinae. The term is sometimes used even more loosely to include all extant members of the order Crocodilia, which includes the alligators and caimans (family Alligatoridae), the gharial and false gharial (family Gavialidae), and all other living and fossil Crocodylomorpha.
Although they appear similar, crocodiles, alligators and the gharial belong to separate biological families. The gharial, with its narrow snout, is easier to distinguish, while morphological differences are more difficult to spot in crocodiles and alligators. The most obvious external differences are visible in the head, with crocodiles having narrower and longer heads, with a more V-shaped than a U-shaped snout compared to alligators and caimans. Another obvious trait is that the upper and lower jaws of the crocodiles are the same width, and the teeth in the lower jaw fall along the edge or outside the upper jaw when the mouth is closed; therefore, all teeth are visible, unlike an alligator, which possesses in the upper jaw small depressions into which the lower teeth fit. Also, when the crocodile's mouth is closed, the large fourth tooth in the lower jaw fits into a constriction in the upper jaw. For hard-to-distinguish specimens, the protruding tooth is the most reliable feature to define the species' family. Crocodiles have more webbing on the toes of the hind feet and can better tolerate saltwater due to specialized salt glands for filtering out salt, which are present, but non-functioning, in alligators. Another trait that separates crocodiles from other crocodilians is their much higher levels of aggression.Crocodile size, morphology, behaviour and ecology differ somewhat among species. However, they have many similarities in these areas as well. All crocodiles are semiaquatic and tend to congregate in freshwater habitats such as rivers, lakes, wetlands and sometimes in brackish water and saltwater. They are carnivorous animals, feeding mostly on vertebrates such as fish, reptiles, birds and mammals, and sometimes on invertebrates such as molluscs and crustaceans, depending on species and age. All crocodiles are tropical species that, unlike alligators, are very sensitive to cold. They separated from other crocodilians during the Eocene epoch, about 55 million years ago. Many species are at the risk of extinction, some being classified as critically endangered.
