Антоха. Путешествие из Магадана в Европу / Journey from Magadan to Europe (English subs)
Забронировать новую Hyundai SONATA можно тут:
Всем привет!
Мы в Португалии, на мысе Рока, самой западной точке континентальной Европы.
Уже неделю мы находимся в пути и снимаем новый сложносочиненный выпуск.
Один из самых грустных фактов про Россию звучит так: больше 50 процентов населения нашей страны никогда не были за границей.
Понятно, что основная причина – в том, что люди за пределами Москвы и еще пары городов живут очень скромно.
Но параллельно с этим уже много лет нам рассказывают, как же за пределами России плохо. Эмигранты, гей-парады, бездуховность – ну вы сами все знаете.
Наша позиция: путешествия – это неотъемлемая часть процветания и прогресса. Если ты видишь, как устроен чужой мир, тебе гораздо проще обустраивать мир собственный. Ну а если где-то действительно плохо, лучше узнавать об этом самому, а не по пламенным речам людей из телевизора.
Поэтому мы придумали следующее:
1. Выбрали очень классный и – важное – НЕпопсовый маршрут по Европе.
2. Взяли с собой человека, который не так искушен путешествиями, как мы.
Те, кто смотрел наш выпуск про Колыму, наверняка помнят Антоху – нашего водителя, очень яркого парня, который появился всего на пару минут, но покорил абсолютно всех. Антохе 33 года и он никогда не был за пределами стран бывшего Советского Союза.
Мы проехали почти 1500 километров от Страны Басков до Лиссабона – таким образом, чтобы Антоха, житель самого востока Евразии, оказался в самой западной ее точке.
У выпуска, который вы увидите, две задачи:
1. Интересно провести время
2. Показать, что мир – большой и классный. И гораздо лучше быть частью это мира, а не настороженно смотреть на него из-за забора.
Вперед!

Culinary delights and wild horse training in Rostov on Don
Summery: Rostov-on-Don is one of Russia's most important Southern cities, an industrial and cultural center with more than 1.3 million people. This is a 21st century town that's proud of its history, where you can find cutting edge technology and people that still follow traditions that date back centuries.(from RT's commentary)
This documentary is made by RT in the style of tourist tele-program. The location looks interesting as it has never been regarded the subject of such a program abroad(comment by Alt-arts).

Запрещённая память чеченских войн / The banished Memory of Chechen Wars
Документальный фильм Анны Немзер «Война и мирные».
От автора: Последние полтора месяца я делала фильм, о котором мечтала двадцать пять лет. Я была подростком, когда в 1994 году началась первая война в Чечне, и я как тогда не могла переварить эту новость, так и сейчас не могу.
Про эти войны можно снять кучу фильмов. (Заметим, что снято при этом очень немного). Можно говорить о том, какая это была роковая ошибка и как она перевернула российскую политику. Можно о многочисленных открытых вопросах – о подоплеках, подлинных кукловодах. Это будет такое масштабное расследование, возможное в прекрасной России будущего. Можно говорить об армии.
Но мне было важно поговорить с чеченцами, с мирными жителями. Война много чего с ними сделала. И это не только очевидные последствия – потери близких и физические травмы. Это и посттравматический синдром, не миновавший ни одного из них. И чудовищная ксенофобия во всей России за пределами Чечни (помните такое - чеченская статья?). И то, как им страшно сейчас говорить о войне, о которой они вообще-то помнят каждый день. Потому что большой России об этом помнить совсем не нужно.
Кажется, за последние полтора месяца я раз пятьсот сказала «мне страшно».
Я не могу посчитать, сколько отказов от интервью я получила перед поездкой в Чечню. И если люди, живущие за границей, все-таки иногда соглашались со мной поговорить, то в Грозном был просто моментальный отказ — за единичными исключениями. Был выбор: либо делать фильм без Чечни, что очень странно, либо идти официальным путем и просить разрешения. Я сознательно выбрала второй вариант. И из этого официального разрешения выросло одно из интервью.
И мне по-прежнему очень страшно. И так круто, что я побывала в Чечне. И что мы с ребятами смогли снять этот фильм.
CIA FILE: Crashed UFO and Aliens turn Russian soldiers into STONE! Alien autopsy.
Have people been killed by Aliens? CIA files indicate YES.
- 2ndEarth Alternative EPISODE 4 -
This brand new online UFO show is intent in exploring alternative news. Evidence seems to indicate that UFOs and Aliens are real, and that we are not alone.
A previously classified KGB report claims five Alien beings emerged from a crashed UFO craft. The ETs (Extra Terrestrials) joined together to form a ball of light which then exploded turning 23 soldiers into stone.
“The KGB report goes on to say that the remains of the ‘petrified soldiers’ were transferred to a secret research institution near Moscow.
“Specialists assume that a source of energy still unknown to Earthlings instantly changed the structure of the soldiers living organisms, having transformed it into a substance whose molecular structure was no different to limestone.
A CIA representative stated at the end of the report: “If the KGB file corresponds to reality, this is an extremely menacing case.
“The Aliens possess such weapons and technology that go beyond all our assumptions.”
The Alien mystery, includes all kinds of wonders, such as ancient civilizations, possible first contact cases, alien abductions, artifacts and free-energy technologies, as well as the concept of disclosure and the philosophical social ramifications for our society not being alone in the universe. What does all of this mean for our future?
If UFO/Alien disclosure is happening, will Humanity finally have open contact with a real Alien species?
TUNE IN for more episodes in the next few weeks. I will try to deliver the episodes once a week, depending on YouTube viewership and interest.

Christianization of Kievan Rus'
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

SUMMARY
=======
The Christianization of Kievan Rus' took place in several stages. In early 867, Patriarch Photius of Constantinople announced to other Orthodox patriarchs that the Rus', baptised by his bishop, took to Christianity with particular enthusiasm. Photius's attempts at Christianizing the country seem to have entailed no lasting consequences, since the Primary Chronicle and other Slavonic sources describe the tenth-century Rus' as firmly entrenched in paganism. Following the Primary Chronicle, the definitive Christianization of Kievan Rus' dates from the year 988 (the year is disputed), when Vladimir the Great was baptized in Chersonesus and proceeded to baptize his family and people in Kiev. The latter events are traditionally referred to as baptism of Rus' (Russian: Крещение Руси, Ukrainian: Хрещення Русі) in Russian and Ukrainian literature.
Mallari Excerpts Indian Classical Dance Bharatnatyam
Mallari, the dance concert features newly choreographed Bharatanatyam dances by Malathi Iyengar and showcases solos, duets, and groups performed to new and traditional music.
The jewel of the show is a music and dance tribute to the universal mother goddess 'Kamakshi' and the south Indian art, culture, & heritage. The music for 'Kamakshi Swarajathi' is a composition of the legendary composer Shyama Shastri (1762 - 1827).
The performance features Iyengar's disciples who have continued to advance after
their solo dance debut.
Bharatnatyam is one of the many traditional dance from India.It originated in grand temples of Ancient India.Its oldest description goes back to sangam literature. It originated around 2B.C-1B.C in Temples of Shiva in South-India.
It has its inspirations from the sculptures of the ancient temple of Chidambaram.
Bharata Natyam proper is a solo dance, with two aspects, lasya, the graceful feminine lines and movements, and tandava Ananda Thandavam (Tamil) (the dance of Shiva), masculine aspect, which is identical to the Yin and Yang in the Chinese culture Bharata Natyam performance lasts about two hours, and includes six or more of the following parts:
Allarippu - A presentation of the Tala punctuated by simple syllables spoken by the dancer. This really is sort of an invocation to the gods to bless the performance.
Kautuvam - Ancient temple dance item performed in the beginning of the recital, containing rhythmic syllables sung for jathis.
Ganapati Vandana - A traditional opening prayer to the Hindu god Ganesh, who removes obstacles. See also Pushpanjali
Jatiswaram - An abstract dance where the drums set the beat. Here the dancer displays her versatility in elaborate footwork and graceful movements of the body.
Shabdam - The dancing is accompanied by a poem or song with a devotional or amorous theme.
Varnam - The center piece of the performance. It is the longest section of the dance punctuated with the most complex and difficult movements. Positions of the hands and body tell a story, usually of love and the longing for the lover.
Padam - Probably the most lyrical section where the dancer speaks of some aspect of love: devotion to the Supreme Being; or of love of mother for child; or the love of lovers separated and reunited.
Stuti - Hymn in praise of a deity that may contain a feigned mockery, etc. See also Stotra
Koothu - Item containing a lot of dramatic elements.
Javali - Javalis are relatively new, pure abhinaya types of compositions of light and pleasing nature. Like Padams the underlying theme of Javalis is Sringara Rasa depicting the Nayaka-Nayaki bhava.
Thillana - The final section is a pure dance (nritta) when the virtuosity of the music is reflected in the complex footwork and captivating poses of the dancer.
Apart from these items, there are items such as Shlokam, Swarajathi, Krithi etc. The performance concludes with the chanting of a few religious verses as a form of benediction. Certain styles include more advanced items, such as Tharanga Nritham and Suddha Nritham. When a dancer has mastered all the elements of dance, as a coming out performance, he or she generally performs an Arangetram (debut).
Angikam - This is a devotional song on Lord Shiva and an item dance in bharatnatyam. It can also be performed in byapti slow motion.

94-year old Italian granny runs for city council elections in Reggio Emilia
Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe
A 94-year old granny who was among the first women to vote in Italy in 1948 is running for the city council elections in the Italian city of Reggio Emilia, footage filmed on Tuesday shows.
Maria Teresa Branduzzi, who spent many years working as a teacher and unionist in Sardinia and northern Italy, later travelled and lived in London, Paris, Berlin, Switzerland and California before returning to her native Reggio Emilia, where she is now ready for the electoral challenge.
That of Salvini is a strategy of fear, of closure. He speaks of sovereignty, does it mean breaking away [from Europe]? Does it mean to take decisions for ourselves? And this, I don't like it, said Branduzzi, who is a vocal critic of Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini.
The 94-year old, who has a pro-European stance and was a left-wing activist in her youth, thinks that Europe should be improved upon: I do not like this excessive war against Europe. We shouldn't make a war against Europe, we always need to improve it, to suggest topics and different solutions to conflicts, we should not leave Europe. To me Europe is fundamental.
Branduzzi will run with the small party Reggio è which is affiliated to the left-wing Democratic Party, backing the re-election of Reggio Emilia incumbent mayor Luca Vecchi.
Her party's programme is focused on granting free-access to kindergartens, improving housing policies, employment support and environment protection.

17:50 Хачапури на гриле. Впервые пробовал. Словами не описать. Если ты сейчас в Долгопрудном и еще не был в грузинском ресторане Европа то сам виноват. ;)
Как Американец выбирает места для поездок по России? Чаще всего, это города про которые я мало знаю. Здорово просто бродить по незнакомым улицам и открывать для себя (и для вас) малоизвестную Россию.
Говорят, что Долгопрудный небольшой городок – просто ещё один спальный район Москвы.
Но гораздо круче когда нашу команду встречают местные и показывают свой город! Так и было в Долгопрудном.
Огромное спасибо:
Ирме Пайлодзе владелцу ресторана Европа. Я уже всем друзьям рассказываю о вас и о ресторане. Настоящая грузинская кухня в Долгопрудном. Думаю уже будем приезжать из Москвы специально к вам.

SUMMARY
=======
Peter the Great (Russian: Пётр Вели́кий, tr. Pyotr Velikiy, IPA: [ˈpʲɵtr vʲɪˈlʲikʲɪj]), Peter I (Russian: Пётр I, tr. Pyotr I, IPA: [ˈpʲɵtr ˈpʲɛrvɨj]) or Peter Alexeyevich (Russian: Пётр Алексе́евич, IPA: [ˈpʲɵtr ɐlʲɪˈksʲejɪvʲɪtɕ]; 9 June [O.S. 30 May] 1672 – 8 February [O.S. 28 January] 1725) ruled the Tsardom of Russia and later the Russian Empire from 7 May [O.S. 27 April] 1682 until his death in 1725, jointly ruling before 1696 with his elder half-brother, Ivan V. Through a number of successful wars, he expanded the Tsardom into a much larger empire that became a major European power and also laid the groundwork for the Russian navy after capturing ports at Azov and the Baltic Sea. He led a cultural revolution that replaced some of the traditionalist and medieval social and political systems with ones that were modern, scientific, Westernised and based on the Enlightenment. Peter's reforms made a lasting impact on Russia, and many institutions of Russian government trace their origins to his reign. He is also known for founding and developing the city of Saint Petersburg, which remained the capital of Russia until 1917.

SUMMARY
=======
Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn (; 11 December 1918 – 3 August 2008) was a Russian novelist, historian, and short story writer. He was an outspoken critic of the Soviet Union and communism and helped to raise global awareness of its Gulag forced labor camp system. He was allowed to publish only one work in the Soviet Union, One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich (1962), in the periodical Novy Mir. After this he had to publish in the West, most notably Cancer Ward (1968), August 1914 (1971), and The Gulag Archipelago (1973). Solzhenitsyn was awarded the 1970 Nobel Prize in Literature for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature. Solzhenitsyn was afraid to go to Stockholm to receive his award for fear that he would not be allowed to reenter. He was eventually expelled from the Soviet Union in 1974, but returned to Russia in 1994 after the state's dissolution.

SUMMARY
=======
Odessa or Odesa (Ukrainian: Оде́са [oˈdɛsɐ] (listen); Russian: Оде́сса [ɐˈdʲesə]) is the third most populous city of Ukraine and a major tourism center, seaport and transport hub located on the northwestern shore of the Black Sea. It is also the administrative center of the Odessa Oblast and a multiethnic cultural center. Odessa is sometimes called the pearl of the Black Sea, the South Capital (under the Russian Empire and Soviet Union), and Southern Palmyra.
Before the Tsarist establishment of Odessa, an ancient Greek settlement existed at its location. A more recent Tatar settlement was also founded at the location by Hacı I Giray, the Khan of Crimea in 1440 that was named after him as Hacıbey. After a period of Lithuanian Grand Duchy control, Hacibey and surroundings became part of the domain of the Ottomans in 1529 and remained there until the empire's defeat in the Russo-Turkish War of 1792.
In 1794, the city of Odessa was founded by a decree of the Russian empress Catherine the Great. From 1819 to 1858, Odessa was a free port - porto-franco. During the Soviet period, it was the most important port of trade in the Soviet Union and a Soviet naval base. On 1 January 2000, the Quarantine Pier at Odessa Commercial Sea Port was declared a free port and free economic zone for a period of 25 years.
During the 19th century, Odessa was the fourth largest city of Imperial Russia, after Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Warsaw. Its historical architecture has a style more Mediterranean than Russian, having been heavily influenced by French and Italian styles. Some buildings are built in a mixture of different styles, including Art Nouveau, Renaissance and Classicist.Odessa is a warm-water port. The city of Odessa hosts both the Port of Odessa and Port Yuzhne, a significant oil terminal situated in the city's suburbs. Another notable port, Chornomorsk, is located in the same oblast, to the south-west of Odessa. Together they represent a major transport hub integrating with railways. Odessa's oil and chemical processing facilities are connected to Russian and European networks by strategic pipelines.
