The problem #1 in Russia

Hello to all!Today I want to tell you something about russian "tradition", that actually made us famous and.. hm.. unpopular all over the world. Of course, I talk about drinking alcohol, especially Russian vodka. Someone thinks it's normal, someone finds it funny, someone doesn't pay any attention to it. But facts are sad.Russians drink about 18 litres of alcohol in an year per person. The number of 8 litres per person is fatally dangerous for the nation, so the Russian nation has more than a do

To upload photos or videos to your blog or comment is easy, but may take a while to discover on your own. I prefer to sometimes write in my text before the image so it will naturally be above the image. When you are ready for the image click the little camera icon in the little utility bar just below ENTRY it is in the image below with blue square around it. The ADD AN IMAGE window will then pop up.It usually works better to click the [Choose File] just below Upload an image.

Teach what you know, learn what you don't.

That was a quotation I took down in my notebook yesterday morning while I was reading an old issue of an American magazine. "Teach what you know, learn what you don't." I thought, that quotation is appropriate to write here.As we live, we learn. We learned many things since our childhood. Those were all stored up in our brain. One way or the other, we impart to others what we had already learned - whether we are aware of it or not. And, maybe, some of those were good ones that touched and enrich

Never too late to learn

Some people say "it's never too late to learn." I was amazed at the perseverance and determination of old people getting education even when old. One lady I viewed on our evening television news recently featured a 78 years old woman who graduated from elementary school.It was a most refreshing sight to see the old woman - in her white toga and holding a rolled white paper with pink ribbon waving above her head, and then, flipped her toga and the rest of the graduating students followed suit.She

A talented lady

A few years a go I noticed a talented actress because the part she played seemed so real and human. I saw her again in another movie where she was once again a character that I felt could be real. I am going to post a few photos of her here with some of the changes she has gone through so she can "be" the person she is playing.

This was the first character I saw her play and was set in the 1920's or 1930's.

This role was also very good and I felt a sympathy for her character as she was in love wit
