Russian T-55 Tank
This is footage of a Russian T-55 tank which I filmed at a military history fair in Europe (2007). This is the actual T-55 used for the filming of the James Bond film Golden Eye. It's not as well known as the T-72, but is still pretty cool to have seen one running around an arena.
Anna Vasilevna Ti: My Father, the NKVD and the Great Terror (Ezhovshchina)
Anna Vasilevna Ti's father was an NKVD officer/translator during the Great Terror in Chernogorsk, Russia. The following is a 3 minute clip from 3 hours or so of several video interviews during which she discusses the Great Terror (1936-1941). Note the year 1941 as that was the last year that Ti Khai Ir translated for the NKVD and the last recorded trials of Chinese and Koreans there.
Khai Ir Ti (Ti is the surname) unlike most NKVD officers admitted to his own family that the arrests and trials were false and abuses of the Sov. Constitution. At the same time, he relished the status of working for the NKVD as it lifted him out of the mines and earned him nearly 500 rubles per month. See the video or the monograph for more details.
Khai Ir Ti was born in Korea, left Korea for Manchuria sometime under the age of 10 for Manchuria, specifically to Chientao/Jiandao (which is now the Korean Autonomous region of China called Yanbian). He went to school there studying in Chinese and Korean. Men from this region who immigrated to the USSR in the 1920s, 1930s were quite valuable for Soviet intelligence purposes. In 1934, Khai Ir Ti emigrated to the USSR with his wife, mother and daughter (Anna). He had been part of a anti Japanese partisan unit led by Kim Il Sung. The Japanese were in pursuit of them so they fled to Russia in a group of about 10 (8-10 men went with Khai Ir Ti in the direction of Central Russia, others perhaps fled to the Russian Far Eastern regions).
To find out more, see the monograph, Burnt by the Sun: The Koreans of the Russian Far East for the history of the Soviet Koreans. It is available on any of the various Amazon.com sites and was written by Jon K. Chang. The author finished graduate work in Russian/Soviet history and spent 6 years in Central Asia interviewing (Soviet) Koreans and Chinese. Finally, note that Ms. Anna Ti is a native speaker of Russian. When I was interviewing elderly (80-97 yr. old , at that time) Soviet Koreans (born in Russia) from 2006 to 2010, around 30% were native speakers of Russian.

Donetsk residents report artillery strikes throughout Friday night and Saturday morning, aftermath
Residents of the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk were on Saturday assessing the damage caused by what local officials said were overnight artillery strikes.
The mayor's office said three people were killed, including two who had been waiting for a bus.
A local history museum was also hit and severely damaged.
Museum workers and volunteers helped clean up by sweeping up the debris.
It was unclear who carried out the attack, and the Ukrainian armed forces denied responsibility.
Ukraine has retaken control of much of its eastern territory bordering Russia in the last few weeks, but fierce fighting for the rebel-held cities of Donetsk and Luhansk persists.
