Putin Revives Bolshevik Legend: Kremlin leader renames police force after KGB founder Dzerzhinsky
Russian President Vladimir Putin has renamed an elite police force after the founder of the Soviet KGB Felix Dzerzhinsky. The announcement is another indication of the Kremlin’s desire to rehabilitate the Soviet Union.
Notorious intelligence director Felix Dzerzhinsky was responsible for millions of deaths after orchestrating mass executions and torture during the Russian Civil War as part of the Bolshevik Secret police.

American Mormons Buy Russian Dead Souls for Afterlife Polygamy - Russian TV News
Subscribe to Vesti News
It has turned out that MORMON POLYGAMISTS have been buying Russian dead souls since the early 90s. They literally buy them, for 7 cents per 5 names. The rumor has it, 15 to 20 million Russians have become Mormons postmortem. Why do Mormons need that? Zinaida Kurbatova tried to find the answer. Zinaida, good evening! Hello! Looks like a Gogol's story, doesn't it? It does. A short answer is that polygamy is widespread among Mormons. I will explain. Everyone remembers Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol: Chichikov was planning to get a loan against serfs, purportedly alive, who were actually dead. Later, the fraud was exposed. So, why do American Mormons need Russian dead souls, when the sect's representatives claim not to be interested in money? It turns out that their faith recommends that Mormon men have more than one wife. Even if the woman passed away a long time ago, she could become a Mormon spouse. Roman Silantyev, religious expert: The Mormon elite, who get their own planets after death, constitute about 15% of the congregation. I mean, those who have gone through all the necessary ceremonies. So, the elite intends to solve the problem with polygamy somehow. They couldn't find any other way to do that but to marry the dead. They buy data in archives. Vitaly Semyonov, genealogist: Every church member is obliged to conduct personal and community genealogical research. In short, Mormons took Chichikov's wrong way, and they did it long ago. Since the early 90s, the visitors from Utah have tried to get the personal data of Russians who were born before the October Revolution, and they did that many times. Mormons requested many archives for scanned birth certificates of Russian Empire subjects, in exchange for electronic equipment. In Yekaterinburg, their request was denied. Mormons were told that the relatives of the departed might be against that. What is more, the archive specialists found that the contract was no more than an audacious fraud. Alexander Kapustin, chief archivist: When we read the contract, which we were supposed to sign, we found out that they were going to grant us the equipment only for the time to scan the papers. As soon as the scanning would have finished, they would have taken both data and equipment, and that's it. It's a fact, that Mormons requested all Russian archives back then, but we don't know if all the archives denied the requests. Maybe, some of them finally acquired the equipment and provided the data. Anyhow, Mormons were turned away in Arkhangelsk, too. They requested 7,000 files dating from the 1780s to 1917. Nikolai Shumilov, chief archivist: That insulted the feelings of the followers of the Russian Orthodox faith. They didn't want Mormons to proselytize all their ancestors, going back to 18th century. Russians show great interest in their ancestry, in the history of their families. Some visit archives themselves, others hire specialists, private genealogy experts. Archives are mostly under-funded, they are left to self-sustainment. How can an archive earn money? Exactly, by drawing up genealogical trees. But in this case, archives will have to monopolize this market, keeping both amateurs and professionals away from the files. Vitaly Semyonov, genealogist: That story about malicious Mormons has been around since 2005. It comes up every time when someone demands that certain archives should start working properly, that they should open the access to personal files for everyone, like other Russian archives have done at last. Some say, that Mormons haven't become more active than usual, but regional archives want us to believe they have, for they can deny personal access to files on that ground, saying they doubt you came to work for yourself, and suspect you of working for the Mormons. Since 2002, in Arkhangelsk, visitors have no other choice but to order the files and, at some point they get a printout, but not an original document. Some time ago, the court ruled that, starting from 2020, the Arkhangelsk regional archive must start to operate like all other archives around the country. It's not clear whether they will adapt to the new rules. So, genealogists assume that archives may benefit from Mormon attacks. Zinaida Kurbatova on Mormons and dead souls.

Khruschev Comes to America! Soviet Diplomacy Almost Brought End to Cold War 60 Years Ago!
Subscribe to Vesti News
Sixty years ago, September of 1959 saw the first Soviet leader's visit to the USA. Nikita Khrushchev's two-week-long trip to America became a historic event. Two countries, right in the middle of the Cold War, began to have a heartfelt conversation. It was a huge diplomatic victory. Nikita Khrushchev took America by storm.
Russian villager turns his house into work of art
(17 May 2017) LEADIN:
Deep in the Russian countryside, a local man has transformed his home into a work of art.
Mikhail Korshunov's work is inspired by his life in the village and by the beautiful countryside that surrounds him.
STORYLINE:
Mikhail Korshunov's house is not difficult to spot.
A sculpture of a family of cranes in their nest adorns the roof and the walls are bursting with colourful paintings.
In case you're in any doubt as to the meaning, there are signs reading Beware of the dog! and Beware of the berserk landlord!
Korshunov is a self-taught artist, who uses different styles and techniques to paint buildings and objects, giving them his own particular meaning.
Like other residents of his half-abandoned village, he relies on his land plot to feed himself.
Even his tractor is a work of art: an image of a deer is painted on its side along with its name, Tsar Vladimir.
Korshunov says the tractor is his own personal Tsar: fulfilling the traditional role of the master who comes to help the villagers and make their lives better.
People always had some sort of expectation that a master would come, that he would settle disputes. (Just as in many folk tales) An old woman waits for the master, (saying) he will help us, he will build us a new house and will punish and condemn those who should be punished, he says.
We (Russians) have always been waiting for some sort of help from a Tsar, and to be able to rely on him. What people are like, so is their Tsar. And I rely on my Tsar (the tractor). If I don't work through the soil of the vegetable garden with it, no one will help me. To me, to some extent, this is the Tsar.
Korshunov says the images he paints have particular meanings, such as the deer symbol on the tractor.
There used to be state symbols indicating which factory it belongs to, like PTP, 3 letters, that's it. There are no factories, so this farm vehicle became private property. So I painted mine with (a symbol) from nature, a deer. Let it be this way. I like it. I don't know about others.
Korshunov was born and has lived most of his life in the village of Severnaya Griva.
It's just 140 kilometres (nearly 90 miles) east of Moscow, but it's a different world.
Like many Russian villages, the population here is sparse and is dwindling.
Korshunov lived with his wife in a nearby town for some of his life, but after they divorced, he moved back to the house he was born in.
The house is full of treasures. In his garage there is an old World War Two-era Renault brought from Germany by his father after the war.
Korshunov used to take it to local parades.
He used to be a fire fighter and is now a local forest warden.
But it's his artwork that he's known for here, in particular the portraits of Russian rulers that adorn the facade of his house.
His gallery includes Pyotr Stolypin, Vladimir Putin, Joseph Stalin, Vladimir Lenin, Peter the Great, Dmitry Medvedev and Ivan the Terrible.
He says many confuse the portrait of Stolypin with Tsar Nikolay II and Emperor of Russia Alexander III.
His portraits of Russian leaders are painted in a realistic manner, but he's also made religious icons imitating the old traditional style.
Korshunov is also a poet, filling notebooks with his verse, which are scattered around the house.
We hear the echo of the ages which passed, the sound of Damascus steel and earthy moans. And the scream of the cranes from the blue skies we can hear, forever alive. We do not know much about the dead heroes who protected out Motherland, which destiny was given to them and where they died, he says, reading from one of the notebooks.
Korshunov was asked to paint a restaurant here.
But despite Korshunov's presence, the village is fading.

Russia/Moscow (Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknow Soldier-Kremlin) Part 10
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries.
See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
The Russian Tomb of the Unknown is just outside the Kremlin. The Changing of the Guard ceremony is fascinating in every country.The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (Могила Неизвестного Солдата in Russian, [mɐˈɡʲilə nʲɪɪˈzvʲɛsnəvə sɐlˈdatə]) is a war memorial, dedicated to the Soviet soldiers killed during World War II. It is located at the Kremlin Wall in the Alexander Garden in Moscow.
The remains of the unknown soldiers killed in the Battle of Moscow in 1941 were initially buried in a mass grave of the Shtyki Memorial at the 40th km of the Leningrad highway at the city of Zelenograd. This was the location of the closest approach of the German armies to Moscow during the war. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the battle, in December 1966 these remains were relocated to the Kremlin Wall. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was designed by architects D. I. Burdin, V. A. Klimov, Yu. R. Rabayev and sculptor Nikolai Tomsky, and was unveiled to the public on May 8, 1967. The dark red porphyry monument is decorated with a bronze sculpture of a laurel branch and a soldier's helmet laid upon a banner.
In front of the monument, there is a five-pointed star in a square field of labradorite, which emanates the Eternal Flame from its center. The flame illuminates a bronze inscription Имя твоё неизвестно, подвиг твой бессмертен (translit.: Imya tvoyo neizvestno, podvig tvoy bessmerten, Your name is unknown, your deed is immortal). The torch for the memorial's Eternal Flame was transported from Leningrad, where it had been lit from the Eternal Flame at the Field of Mars.
To the left of the tomb is a granite wall with an inlay stating: 1941 - To Those Who Have Fallen For The Motherland - 1945. To the right of the tomb, lining the walkway are dark red porphyry blocks with incapsulated soils from hero cities, Leningrad, Kiev, Stalingrad, Odessa, Sevastopol, Minsk, Kerch, Novorossiysk, Tula and Brest, Murmansk and Smolensk. The plate for “Stalingrad” read “Volgograd” until September 2004. Further to the right of these monuments is an obelisk in red granite, listing the names of 40 “Cities of Military Glory” divided into groups of four. This monument was dedicated on May 8, 2010.
In 1997, a Guard of Honour of the Kremlin Regiment (which had guarded the Lenin Mausoleum) was restored at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier by the federal law of December 8, 1997, On Immortalizing the Soviet People’s Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. A Changing of the Guard Ceremony takes place every hour.

This event is regarded as one of the most important occurrences in the 20th century. There were not one but many reasons which sparked the Civil War in Russia. The event is at times clubbed together with the Great War. The number of people died in the Russian Civil War was so high that it shadowed the American Civil War.

бескозырка 2015
3 февраля в нашем городе в 42-й раз пройдет операция Бескозырка, которая проводится в годовщину высадки десанта майора Цезаря Куникова в ночь с 3 на 4 февраля 1943 года.
Тогда, в сорок третьем, десантные корабли шли в Цемесскую бухту сквозь ледяное крошево, волны и лютый норд-ост.
В отсветах взрывов люди в черных бушлатах и бескозырках штурмовали берег под огнем, зная - обратной дороги нет. А впереди кусок русской земли, в который нужно вгрызаться зубами, чтобы отстоять и удержать. Так, в час ночи 4 февраля 1943 года легендарный десант майора Цезаря Куникова начал свой подвиг, длившийся 225 дней и ночей. Было это 67 лет назад Операция Бескозырка началась спустя 25 лет после той памятной ночи.
3 февраля 1968 года члены молодежной организации Шхуна ровесников во главе со своим капитаном Константином Подымой, встретились на Площади Героев с самодельными факелами. Факелы зажгли от Огня Вечной Славы и шли пешком на Малую землю в сопровождении нескольких ветеранов. В память о высадке десанта ребята решили опустить на воду бескозырку.
Вряд ли участники первых акций ощущали себя зачинателями славной городской традиции.
«Бескозырка» стала городской акцией, затем всесоюзной. Город-герой Новороссийск гордился, принимая в феврале многочисленных гостей со всей страны.
Неизменным остается факел, зажженный от Вечного огня 3 февраля, венок и бескозырка на морской волне.
И Память...
On February 3 in our city for the 42nd time there will take place the operation Peakless cap which is carried out to anniversary of landing of troops of the major Caesar Kunikov in the night of February 4, 1943.
Then, in the forty third, the landing ships went to Tsemes Bay through an ice medley, waves and a fierce northeast.
In reflected lights of explosions people in black pea jackets and peakless caps stormed the coast under fire, knowing - a way back isn't present. And ahead a piece of the Russian land into which it is necessary to bite teeth to defend and hold. So, at o'clock in the morning on February 4, 1943 the legendary landing of the major Caesar Kunikov began the feat lasting 225 days and nights. Was this 67 years ago the Operation Peakless cap began 25 years later after that memorable night.
On February 3, 1968 members of the youth organization Schooner of Age-mates headed by the captain Konstantin Podyma, met on Geroyev Square self-made torches. Torches lit from Fire of Eternal Glory and walked on the Small earth accompanied by several veterans. In memory of landing of troops children decided to lower a peakless cap on water.
It is unlikely participants of the first actions felt as initiators of nice city tradition. But in three years on February 4, 1971 some thousands of inhabitants of Novorossiysk came to the operation Peakless cap. The action is obliged by the scope to the head of the city Komsomol organization Victor Saloshenko and the first secretary of a city town committee of CPSU Yakov Shvydkov. They accepted it and supported.
Peakless cap became a city campaign, then all-Union. The hero town of Novorossiysk was proud, receiving in February numerous guests from all country.
For last years the scenario Peakless caps many times changed. In the 70th years the action took place at a monument to the Unknown sailor, then it returned on Lenin Avenue and began at the memorial sign First Line of Defense of the Small Earth.
Invariable is a torch lit from the Eternal flame on February 3, a wreath and a peakless cap on a sea wave.

Ukrainians Say Russian Troops Captured Them In East Ukraine
Two Ukrainian soldiers have offered new evidence of direct Russian military involvement in eastern Ukraine, saying they were captured by Russian troops in a battle that became a turning point in the conflict. Their testimony, given after being freed from a month's captivity, casts further doubt on Moscow's denials of Western accusations that it helped pro-Russian rebels stave off defeat last month by sending in soldiers and weapons from Russia. The Russian Defense Ministry, contacted by phone on Monday, declined to comment on their remarks.
Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - Moscow Kremlin
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (Могила Неизвестного Солдата in Russian, or Mogila Neizvestnova Soldata) is a war memorial, dedicated to the Soviet soldiers killed during the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. It is located at the Kremlin Wall in the Alexander Garden in Moscow.
The remains of the unknown soldiers killed in the Battle of Moscow in 1941 were initially buried in a mass grave at the 41st km of the Leningrad highway at the city of Zelenograd. This was the location of the closest approach of the Nazi armies to Moscow during the war. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the battle, in December 1966 these remains were relocated to the Kremlin Wall. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was designed by architects D. I. Burdin, V. A. Klimov, Yu. R. Rabayev and sculptor Nikolai Tomsky, and was unveiled to the public on May 8, 1967. The dark red porphyry monument is decorated with a bronze]sculpture of a laurel branch and a soldier's helmet laid upon a banner.
In front of the moniment, there is a five-pointed star in a square field of labradorite, which emanates the Eternal Flame from its center. The flame illuminates a bronze inscription Имя твое неизвестно, подвиг твой бессмертен (translit.: Imya tvoyo neizvestno, podvig tvoy bessmerten, Your name is unknown, your deed is immortal). The torch for the memorial's Eternal Flame was transported from Leningrad, where it had been lit from the Eternal Flame at the Field of Mars.
To the left of the tomb is a granite wall with an inlay stating: 1941 - To Those Who Have Fallen For The Motherland - 1945. To the right of the tomb, lining the walkway are dark red porphyry blocks with incapsulated soils from hero cities, Leningrad, Kiev, Stalingrad, Odessa, Sevastopol, Minsk, Kerch, Novorossiysk, Tula and Brest, Murmansk and Smolensk. The plate for Stalingrad read Volgograd up until September 2004. Further to the right of these monuments is an obelisk in red granite, listing the names of 33 Cities of Military Glory divided into groups of four. This monument was dedicated on May 8, 2010.
In 1997, a Guard of Honour of the Kremlin Regiment (which had guarded the Lenin Mausoleum) was restored at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier by the federal law of December 8, 1997, On Immortalizing the Soviet People's Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. A Changing of the Guard Ceremony takes place every hour.

3 февраля в нашем городе в 42-й раз пройдет операция Бескозырка, которая проводится в годовщину высадки десанта майора Цезаря Куникова в ночь с 3 на 4 февраля 1943 года.
Тогда, в сорок третьем, десантные корабли шли в Цемесскую бухту сквозь ледяное крошево, волны и лютый норд-ост.
В отсветах взрывов люди в черных бушлатах и бескозырках штурмовали берег под огнем, зная - обратной дороги нет. А впереди кусок русской земли, в который нужно вгрызаться зубами, чтобы отстоять и удержать. Так, в час ночи 4 февраля 1943 года легендарный десант майора Цезаря Куникова начал свой подвиг, длившийся 225 дней и ночей. Было это 67 лет назад Операция Бескозырка началась спустя 25 лет после той памятной ночи.
3 февраля 1968 года члены молодежной организации Шхуна ровесников во главе со своим капитаном Константином Подымой, встретились на Площади Героев с самодельными факелами. Факелы зажгли от Огня Вечной Славы и шли пешком на Малую землю в сопровождении нескольких ветеранов. В память о высадке десанта ребята решили опустить на воду бескозырку.
Вряд ли участники первых акций ощущали себя зачинателями славной городской традиции.
«Бескозырка» стала городской акцией, затем всесоюзной. Город-герой Новороссийск гордился, принимая в феврале многочисленных гостей со всей страны.
Неизменным остается факел, зажженный от Вечного огня 3 февраля, венок и бескозырка на морской волне.
И Память...
On February 3 in our city for the 42nd time there will take place the operation Peakless cap which is carried out to anniversary of landing of troops of the major Caesar Kunikov in the night of February 4, 1943.
Then, in the forty third, the landing ships went to Tsemes Bay through an ice medley, waves and a fierce northeast.
In reflected lights of explosions people in black pea jackets and peakless caps stormed the coast under fire, knowing - a way back isn't present. And ahead a piece of the Russian land into which it is necessary to bite teeth to defend and hold. So, at o'clock in the morning on February 4, 1943 the legendary landing of the major Caesar Kunikov began the feat lasting 225 days and nights. Was this 67 years ago the Operation Peakless cap began 25 years later after that memorable night.
On February 3, 1968 members of the youth organization Schooner of Age-mates headed by the captain Konstantin Podyma, met on Geroyev Square self-made torches. Torches lit from Fire of Eternal Glory and walked on the Small earth accompanied by several veterans. In memory of landing of troops children decided to lower a peakless cap on water.
It is unlikely participants of the first actions felt as initiators of nice city tradition. But in three years on February 4, 1971 some thousands of inhabitants of Novorossiysk came to the operation Peakless cap. The action is obliged by the scope to the head of the city Komsomol organization Victor Saloshenko and the first secretary of a city town committee of CPSU Yakov Shvydkov. They accepted it and supported.
Peakless cap became a city campaign, then all-Union. The hero town of Novorossiysk was proud, receiving in February numerous guests from all country.
For last years the scenario Peakless caps many times changed. In the 70th years the action took place at a monument to the Unknown sailor, then it returned on Lenin Avenue and began at the memorial sign First Line of Defense of the Small Earth.
Invariable is a torch lit from the Eternal flame on February 3, a wreath and a peakless cap on a sea wave.
And Memory...
