Russian royal treasures on rare show (26.10.2014)
Take a step back in time to the royal court of Russia in the 18th Century when you visit the Museum of History’s newest exhibition.
Visitors can get up close and personal with more than 200 items on loan from the Tsarskoye Selo State Museum-Preserve of Russia, which include paintings, costumes, porcelain and weapons that were used by well-known historical figures such as Russian Empress Catherine the Great and French Emperor Napoleon.
Regal ride
One of the highlights of the exhibition is the four-seater carriage and harnesses made especially for the 1856 coronation of Russian Emperor Alexander II in Moscow. This will be the first time the complete set of six harnesses and the carriage have been seen in public for 100 years. The Romanov dynasty celebrated 300 years on the throne in 1914 and were the last ones to ride in it.
A close look at the roof corners reveals heraldic double-headed eagles. Curator Irina Bredikhina explained that the eagles were symbols on the royal coat of arms and were crafted in such a way that people could see them from any angle as the carriage drove past. They are also featured on the harnesses.
Weighing a mighty six tonnes, Ms Bredikhina said the coronation carriage had never been dismantled for fear of breaking it, so it was placed on a tailor-made platform and transported in one piece from Russia in a cargo plane. A crane was used to gently place it into the Museum of History.
The carriage still works, although the curators advised against attaching horses to it and going for a ride.
Handle with care
A beautiful Chinese lacquer vase China’s last emperor Puyi presented to Russia’s last emperor Nicholas II in 1909 was one of the first pieces selected for the exhibit.
“Because our museum is first of all a former imperial residence and this was the last gift from the last Chinese emperor to last Russian emperor, for our exhibition this vase became symbolic,” said Head of the Tsarskoye Selo State Museum-Preserve of Russia Exhibitions Department, Liudmila Kanaeva.
It dates back to the era of Emperor Qianlong (1736-1796) and was made using a technique from the Ming dynasty.
The priceless vase comes in four parts, which Ms Kanaeva said made it much easier to transport.
Portable security
Much less hassle to transport, but of equal historical value is a travelling weapon set that was presented to Russia’s Emperor Alexander I by none other than French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte in 1807.
The head of Tsarskoye Selo State Museum-Preserve of Russia’s Military History Department Georgy Vvedensky said the set was a gift from Napoleon after the two warring sides agreed to make peace.
Noted French gunsmith Nicolas-Noel Boutet made the portable weaponry during the height of his craftsmanship. Napoleon was so impressed by Boutet’s work that he hired him as his personal gunsmith.
Royal robes
Most people have heard of Catherine the Great – the longest-ruling female leader of Russia, whose reign was referred to as the “Golden Age” - but not many people have seen the clothes she wore.
Visitors to the Museum of History can take a look at Empress Catherine II’s military uniform dress. It is one of only 10 known uniform dresses that belonged to her – four are under the care of the Tsarskoye Selo State Museum-Preserve of Russia, another four are in Saint Petersburg museums, and two are believed to be in private collections around the world.
Museum of History Director Susanna Siu said it took about three years and around $17 million to organise the exhibition.
Tsarskoye Selo was a former royal residence turned into a museum, and Ms Siu hopes that by seeing its exhibits, visitors will gain a greater insight into the splendour of Russian court life and into the broader political and cultural developments in Russia’s history Tsarskoye Selo has borne witness to.
The Treasures from Tsarskoye Selo, Residence of the Russian Monarchs Exhibition runs at the Museum of History from October 29 to March 16. (

Vietnam - US Medical Supplies Airlift
T/I: 11:16:40
A huge airlift of medical supplies donated by American companies
was flown into Vietnam on Sunday (23/4), 20 years after the United
States airlifted frantic refugees from collapsing South Vietnam.
The 10 million dollars worth of drugs, prosthetics and other
medical supplies will be distributed around hospitals in north and
south Vietnam. The airlift, privately organised by the
Kansas-based Heart-to-Heart organisation, is a gesture of
reconciliation.

MTV Docs: Transformation | MTV
TRANSFORMATION is a documentary about a group of transgender teens and young adults struggling to find the resources, safety, and confidence to express their gender identity. With 45% of young transgender people having reportedly attempted suicide in the United States alone, non-binary stylist Madin Lopez has made it their business to provide life-altering, gender-affirming makeovers. Afterwards, these individuals are hopefully able to be their true and best selves, looking on the outside how they’ve always felt on the inside. For more infomation visit

Descubra el Transiberiano, el trayecto en tren más largo del mundo - life
Desde Moscú hasta la frontera oriental con China, mas de 9.000 kilómetros componen la vía férrea más larga del mundo, el Transiberiano. Un fantástico viaje.
Euronews, el canal de noticias mas visto en Europa.
Abónese a su dosis diaria de noticias internacionales, jerarquizadas y explicadas:
Euronews está disponible en otros 12 idiomas:
Cada dos días a medianoche, el Rossiya sale de Moscú para un viaje de una semana a Vladivostok, un recorrido único. Muchos vienen desde lejos para disfrutar de un trayecto extraordinario.
Este es el viaje en tren más largo que se pueda hacer. Tan solo tienes que subirte, porque está ahí. Estoy feliz de haberme sentado en el vagón, poder mirar lo que me rodea y visitar sitios en los que nunca he estado antes. Lo encuentro fascinante, decía un turista inglés.
El tren se convierte en un segundo hogar para cientos de pasajeros, que duermen y comen en el limitado confort del ferrocarril e intentan pasar un buen rato durante el tiempo que tardan en llegar a destino.
Muy pocos viajeros hacen todo el recorrido de Moscú hasta Vladivostok en un solo viaje y los que lo hacen tienen que prepararse psicológicamente porque una semana en tren no es fácil. Pero lo cierto es que damos todo lo necesario para que la gente pueda disfrutar del viaje, apunta Irina Savina, maquinista.
En primera y segunda clase hay compartimentos individuales para dos o cuatro pasajeros, una opción muy popular entre los turistas extranjeros y los viajeros de negocios que se trasladan entre las principales ciudades rusas en tren en vez de en avión.
72 paradas entre Moscú y Vladivostok permiten bajar del tren unos minutos para comprar comida y bebida. Muchos turistas prefieren visitar las ciudades más interesantes del camino antes de continuar su viaje en el Transiberiano.
Los viajeros más intrépidos eligen la barata tercera clase, más conocida como platzkart, y en la que comparten espacio y kilómetros personas de intereses y orígenes diferentes.
Un viaje en tren es una buena ocasión para reflexionar sobre algo, para pensar en las cosas que en el día a día no tenemos tiempo de pensar, decía una viajera rusa.
A veces duermes mucho, otras lees o haces algo creativo. Nosotras mientras viajamos hacemos juguetes y joyas de cuentas, añadía otra.
No todos los pasajeros disfrutan de la buena compañía. Demasiado relax puede obligarte a bajar en la siguiente estación. El maquinista se asegura de la comodidad y seguridad de todos los viajeros.
Puedes aprender mucho de Rusia atravesándola en este tren desde Moscú hasta Vladivostok. Si observas a los otros pasajeros, sobre todo a los rusos, y consigues conocerles entonces comprenderás muchas cosas sobre el estilo de vida del pueblo ruso y sobre la misteriosa alma del país, comenta el maquinista Vladímir Kosinov.
Muchos turistas hacen una parada en la histórica ciudad siberiana de Yekaterimburgo y se quedan varios días en Irkutsk donde pueden ver el lago Baikal, el más grande del mundo, antes de bajar por el sur a Mongolia y China. Otros continúan su viaje por el este hasta Vladivostok, el mayor puerto ruso del Pacífico.
Sea cual sea el destino, para los viajeros, el Transiberiano puede convertirse en una especialidad rusa que no hay que perderse.
Es la mejor aventura que pueda hacerse, un descubrimiento de toda Europa y Asia. No hay retrasos y todo es muy cómodo. No busco nada más, podría pasar aquí la eternidad, apuntaba un turista británico.

The agony of trying to unsubscribe | James Veitch
It happens to all of us: you unsubscribe from an unwanted marketing email, and a few days later another message from the same company pops up in your inbox. Comedian James Veitch turned this frustration into whimsy when a local supermarket refused to take no for an answer. Hijinks ensued.

The State of the Global Beauty Industry: Entering a New Chapter
Euromonitor's Head of Cosmetics and Toiletries Research, Irina Barbalova, recaps her presentation from In-Cosmetics 2010 in Paris, France. The cosmetics market suffered during the economic crisis, with premium cosmetics witnessing its first year of decline. Barbalova discusses the top personal care markets, including :
• Hair care, which remained largely unchanged in growth
• Skin care, which posted negative growth
• Deodorants, which is posting strong growth despite the downturn.
Barbalova also explores how private label brands are witnessing massive growth due to budget-conscious consumers and the challenge premium brands are facing to keep their products on store shelves.
Andrew Logan: The Artistic Adventure
Andrew Logan’s work spans the fields of sculpture, theater, pageants, jewelry, and interior design. As a scene-maker Logan is the mastermind behind London’s long-running Alternative Miss World pageant. A celebration of transformation, creative free-reign, and the ordinary turned extraordinary, the pageant features a countercultural parade of freaks, fops, show offs, and drag queens. From his early fame amongst London’s fashionable and artistic crowd, who have variously dubbed him ‘Faberge for the millennium’, ‘The Wizard of Odd’, and ‘mirror of our times’, he has become an influential artist of international stature. The Andrew Logan Museum of Sculpture in Wales is the only European museum dedicated to a living artist. Brian Eno said: “His work takes the risk of being completely clear in its intentions, doesn’t obscure itself in artspeak, and is unashamedly beautiful. […] He is also a ‘scene-maker’ — one of those rare people with the ability to bring out in others their sense of creativity and curiosity.”

Contagion
When Beth Emhoff (Gwyneth Paltrow) returns to Minneapolis from business in Hong Kong, what she thought was jet lag takes a virulent turn. Two days later, she's dead in the ER and the doctors tell her shocked and grieving husband (Matt Damon) they have no idea why. Soon more cases are reported as the virus begins to spread. Researchers mobilize to break the code of this unique biological pathogen as it continues to mutate. Deputy Director Cheever (Laurence Fishburne) tries to allay the growing panic despite his own personal concerns, and must send a brave young doctor (Kate Winslet) into harm's way. As the death toll escalates and people struggle to protect themselves and their loved ones in a society breaking down, one activist blogger (Jude Law) claims the public isn't getting the truth about what's really going on, and sets off an epidemic of paranoia and fear as infectious as the virus itself.

Transiberiano: A maior das viagens - life
De Moscovo até à fronteira da China - o Transiberiano percorre a mais longa linha ferroviária do mundo. O Russian Life embarcou numa viagem de 9 mil quilómetros.
Em cada dois dias, precisamente à meia-noite, o comboio Rossiya parte de Moscovo em direção a Vladivostok. Dura uma semana a viagem que cativa passageiros de todo o mundo, como Robert Bird, de Inglaterra: é a mais longa viagem de comboio que existe. Portanto, há que fazê-la. Pela viagem em si, pelas paisagens, pelos sítios por onde nunca passei. É fascinante.
Por estes dias, estas carruagens tornam-se numa segunda casa para centenas de passageiros. Como passar o tempo? É a primeira pergunta que se coloca. A maquinista Irina Savina afirma haver muito poucos passageiros a fazer, de uma só vez, o trajeto Moscovo-Vladivostok. Aqueles que o fazem têm de estar preparados física e mentalmente. Não é fácil passar uma semana inteira num comboio. Mas fazemos tudo ao nosso alcance para tornar a viagem o mais agradável possível.
Na primeira e segunda classes, existem compartimentos para dois ou quatro passageiros. É a opção mais procurada pelos turistas estrangeiros e pelos empresários que preferem este meio de transporte ao avião para se deslocarem entre os centros de negócios russos.
Há cerca de sessenta estações entre Moscovo e Vladivostok. Alguns aproveitam o tempo de paragem para esticar as pernas. Outros saem para visitar as localidades e retomam o Transiberiano mais tarde. Os mais aventurosos viajam em terceira classe, a platzkart, carruagens sem compartimentos fechados, onde o convívio é praticamente obrigatório.
Ao longo das várias paragens, muitos passageiros aproveitam para visitar a histórica cidade siberiana de Ecaterimburgo ou ir até um dos maiores lagos do mundo, o Baikal, antes de se dirigirem para a Mongólia e para China. Qualquer que seja o destino ideal, o Transiberiano oferece algo para quase todos os gostos.

AROUND THE WORLD without visas
You will not surprise anyone with around-the-world travel in the 21st century. People span the globe by land, water and air, on foot and by bicycles, alone and with their families. Generally speaking, any around the world travel is, in fact, a journey home with the longest detour.
Nonsense! Thus, around the world travelers are forced to think of new vehicles – from stilts to a children's scooter, or of new conceptual ideas.
Valery Shanin can not complain about lack of ideas. The professional traveler, writer and journalist, began his first circumnavigation back in 1999. He returned home only in 2002, traveling mostly hitchhiking. On the one hand, he has spent 1080 days for this travel. And on the other – only 280 dollars! This way having made one of the most economical circumnavigations.
Five years later, Valery Shanin had another idea. How about trying to circle the Earth as quickly as possible, by saving time instead of money? How many days would be necessary for this purpose? 108 – such is Valery's answer. After having returned home from such a high-speed expedition, Shanin decided, that the subject of circumnavigations was settled for him.
But how can the traveler stay still at home? And here, a new idea turned out! It came obviously from the former traveling experience, that was often connected with the burdensome procedure of obtaining visas. Communication with the embassy and consulate officials, unfortunately, inevitably saddens any most interesting travel. However, there are countries, visa-free for Russians! So, it is possible to go traveling, without addressing consulates. This is how the project The World without Visas was brought to life.
Valery decided to begin with no less, than with a circumnavigation.
Around the world without visas! - Shanin put forward the loud slogan, and left for Europe, Africa, Middle East, Indochina, South East Asia, Oceania, South America, Carribean islands. 38 countries in 255 days and with no one visit to any consulate.
