<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just wanted to do a little update for those who are unable to come to our meetings this semester. We have been adding words to our growing vocabulary. Previous posts from Clara teach us the colors. We have also gone through adjectives, months, and weekdays. Last week we began looking at Russian grammar and how sentences are structured. Today I will be bringing cursive writing versus print letters and we will be planning because...</span><br />

Sorry about not posting when we were meeting here on the weekend. I ended up sending out e-mails and posting it on HornetLife. We had our first meeting today and wanted to let everyone know what we talked about for all who were unable to make it.<br />
<br />
We had a great conversation on how Russia is slowly trying to gain more land space and what different countries around Russia speak Russian. We then began to talk politics occurring in Russia and shared about getting together in solidarity with PRIDE. A few suggestions that were made were for an educational aspect or reading poems/songs from the Russian GSM (Gender Sexual Minority). If anyone else has any ideas on something we can do together, please post them or e-mail me!<br />
<br />
It seems like many of us still want to continue learning the language so next week I will be bringing the cyrillic alphabet with pronunciations and a couple other previous posts to help. I'm terrible with names, but one of the ladies there suggested t-shirts so we are looking into that for our club as well.<br />
<br />
Next week we will talk about ideas to do with PRIDE as I went to their meeting and have a few ideas from that as well. Sometime soon I will post a few things on what is going on in Russia with the laws against the GSM community. After we discuss ideas, we will dive into the Russian language and continue learning it!<br />
<br />
Thanks so much for everyone who was able to make it and I hope everyone has a great night and weekend!<br />

<br />
Oh well, welcome back! I hope y'all enjoyed your summer and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again! Speaking of which, what days and times are good for everyone to meet this semester? So far, Wednesdays seem to be looking better for some. Does anyone else have suggestions, specifically for times to meet?<br />
<br />
Come see us at the Activities Fair on campus tomorrow! I have some Russian tea cakes for all who come by.<br />
<br />
I hope your semester goes off to a great start and I will post the date and time we are meeting by this weekend so please give your input as far as meeting times ASAP!<br />

And a wee bit of history: </h3>
*Esaul-captain in cossack's military forces.<br />
** And some words about history of this song. This song from opera about
Stepan Razin (he was cossack from Don's military forces). He was a head
of opposition in russian civil war against king in 17 th century. And
he really lost his head, actually, not just head. 6 june 1671 he was
quartered (executioner cut off his head, arms and legs) after victory of
king's army in this war.<br />

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Hello Russian Club!</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
We've been invited to take part in the International Tea Party!</h3>
<br />
<br />
<img alt="Description: C:\Users\jdelafue\Desktop\tea party.jpg" height="462" src="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/?ui=2&ik=4f30a55667&view=att&th=13d64a8fdeccecca&attid=0.1&disp=emb&zw&atsh=1" width="640" /><br />
<br />
I think it's a great idea - and if we do, I would suggest this tea. It has a very nice black current and strawberry flavor, perfect served hot on a windy day~<br />
<br />
<img alt="http://www.gongfugirl.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/nostalgia_tea_box.jpg" class="decoded" src="http://www.gongfugirl.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/nostalgia_tea_box.jpg" style="cursor: -moz-zoom-out;" /> <br />
<br />
I await your thoughts! Should we make tea-cakes? Would anyone like to come over the night before and make them with me? (I'm thinking IF we make some, we should make 100-200.)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://allrecipes.com/recipe/russian-tea-cakes-i/" target="_blank">The recipe is pretty simple.</a><br />
<br />
In my 'family cookbook' these are called 'Russian Communist Tea Cakes'. However I am sure they predate the USSR, LOL<br />
<a href="http://www.russianlife.com/blog/tea-time-in-russia/" target="_blank"><br /></a>
<a href="http://www.russianlife.com/blog/tea-time-in-russia/" target="_blank">A little something about Russian tea culture</a><br />
<br />
I will ask if the university has a samovar on hand - but I highly doubt it. We may have to simply make use with a standard kettle...though I've always wanted a samovar personally and may just have to watch ebay for an affordable opportunity.<br />
<br />
<i><b>So~~~ who's in for a tea party?</b></i><br />
<br />
Side note: my uncle is in the hospital currently and I'm not sure what each day will bring, so it is very possible that I will not be at our meeting. Our president, Stephanie will do an amazing job leading - am very confident!<br />

Hello all! Привет русский клуб!<br />
<br />
I was giving it some thought and I think a blog post on stereotypes might be a good idea.<br />
Wether they're so-called "positive" stereotypes, such as "all Russian women are beautiful", or "negative" stereotypes such as "all Russian men are alcoholics", stereotypes are stereotypes and can range from being laughable to quite offensive.<br />
<br />
So, with that in mind, I compiled this little bity list of what I've found on the internet.<br />
<br />
First, a video~ <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZaAuGAKFrxI?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<br />
<br />
<div id="intro">
<i>Now, From: http://gorussia.about.com/od/Russian_history_and_culture/tp/Top-10-Russian-Myths.htm</i></div>
<div id="intro">
<i> </i></div>
<div id="intro">
You’ve probably heard a lot of “facts” about Russia that
you assume to be true. Whenever I tell someone that I’m Russian, I
usually get one of the statements listed below in response, which is
irritating and sometimes even offensive. Don’t make the same mistake:
these myths about Russia are just that – myths!</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
10. It’s always cold in Russia</h3>
Yes,
Russia is one of the coldest countries in the world in the winter, with
frosts of up to -30 degrees Celsius (-22 Fahrenheit) common in the
Moscow area and getting even colder further North. However, a lot of
regions in Russia also have incredibly warm summers, and very mild fall
and spring seasons.</div>
<div class="gB" id="gB3">
<br /></div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
9. Russia is dangerous</h3>
Russia is not any more
dangerous than any other big country! Of course, every city has its bad
neighborhoods, and if you’re looking for trouble, you will always find
it. However, if you abide by normal safety rules
and don’t do anything illegal, you will not be in any more danger than
you would be in New York or Paris. There are also a lot of police in
Russia, which can be a different problem, but also means that it’s very
safe on Russian streets.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
8. Russians are alcoholics</h3>
Russians
love alcohol in general, and vodka especially, but most of them are not
alcoholics. Russians drink a lot, but because of this they have a very
high alcohol tolerance! Yes, alcohol is present at almost every occasion
in Russia, but this is a matter of custom and tradition – not
alcoholism.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
7. Russians hate Americans</h3>
Russians
actually love American trends, media, music and culture. They tend to
get access to these things later than the rest of the Western world –
the first Starbucks in Russia did not appear until 2007 – but they
appreciate them even more. Starbucks, for example, is outrageously
popular in Russia.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
6. "Na Zdorov'ye!"</h3>
When
raising a glass with a group of Russian people, do not say "Na
zdorov'ye!". This is not a toast; it's something Russian people say when
somebody thanks them for a nice meal. Although Russian people make
toasts with practically every sip of a drink, they usually say a unique
toast every time, e.g. "To our friendship!". If you want to make a toast
in Russia, stick with "За Вас!" (Za vas!), which means "To you!" and is
very acceptable.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
5. It’s impossible, difficult, and/or expensive to travel to Russia</h3>
Unfortunately,
you do need an invitation and a visa to travel to Russia, but these are
a lot easier to get than you may think! Hotels in Russia and travel
agencies will send you an invitation for a small fee, and the visa
process itself consists of a couple of simple visits to your nearest
Russian embassy. </div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
4. Russians are racist</h3>
Russian
people are actually very open-minded. They may not be aware of the
polite way to talk about people from other cultures, but that does not
mean that they have any malicious intent. In fact, they are usually
curious about and happy to talk with visitors from other countries.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
3. Russians are gloomy</h3>
If you take a look at Russian people on the streets, in the metro, or in the stores, you may well think that they never smile.
The truth is, however, that Russians are warm, friendly, and extremely
funny – just not in public. It is a norm in Russia to have one’s
“serious face” on while in public places, and being too loud or showing
too much emotion is considered strange and perhaps even impolite.</div>
<div class="gB" id="gB1">
<br /></div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
2. Russians are spies</h3>
This one doesn’t really
need elaboration, because obviously, all Russians are not spies. There
are probably as many Russian secret service workers as there are
American, French, or Canadian “spies”. This myth comes from the Cold War
and from Hollywood movies, and bringing it up to Russian people is NOT
funny – it only irritates them, because it is so pervasive.</div>
<div class="lsItm">
<h3>
1. All Russians are Communists</h3>
This
is another Cold War-era myth that is best not mentioned to Russian
people. There are some Russian people that still think Communism was a
good idea, but they are few and far between. For most Russian people,
Communism meant scarcity of food and other resources and being afraid of
both one’s government and one’s neighbors. Not only are most Russians
not Communists, but I would even say that Russians are especially
unlikely to endorse a Communist regime.</div>

Ok, that's all for now, I look forward to your comments and to seeing you on Thursday night, 5:30pm at the Inner Bean!</div>

Hello all!<br />
Due to Inner Bean's hour-of-opperation change this semester, we may do one of two things:<br />
1. Meet every other week, Thursday after 5pm or,<br />
2. Meet every other week Thursday after 5pm at Inner Bean and alternating weeks on Friday at 11:30 at Java Cat.<br />
<br />
Just to avoid cofusion, I propose we meet every other week Thursday at 5:30 at Inner Bean and stay in contact online through the blog, new hornet life site, and twitter. - but what do you all think? Also - should we have a facebook page?<br />
We certainly need to outreach to the rest of the campus and let everyone know we're here!<br />
<br />
New Officer Positions!<br />
<br />
Stephanie Plummer is the new Russian Club president, I'll be staying at V.P until I graduate at the end of this semester. Aaron Cox is Treasurer!<br />
<br />
We now have a space open for secretary ~ secretary will post here as well as the Pres with information and fun Russian facts and keep everyone in the loop about events :)<br />
<br />
You may see posts from me on here now and again, but mostly it'll be Stephanie's domain! I know she'll be an excellent president and usher the club into a wonderful 2013 year!<br />
<br />
Next week will be Valentine's Day, so we won't be meeting - so online activity will be very important! The international food festival is coming up on Mar 2nd! 11am-5pm. Stephanie and I will likely be doing a dance (we just have to get together and practice LOL) I can post up some simple foods and recipes from which we can each pick to make and bring (don't worry - super easy with ingrediants that will be affordable and available) Look for that soon! After the International Food Festival we're planning to have a movie night showing <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J--TDEHizVA" target="_blank">Russian Ark</a>. The venue and time is being ironed out now and I will have more info in just a few days for you.<br />
<br />
At the next meeting lets practice some basic language skills :)<br />
Please see <a href="http://www.emporiarussianclub.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post.html" target="_blank">this link</a> and <a href="http://www.emporiarussianclub.blogspot.com/2012/02/post-1-on-vowel-pronunciation.html" target="_blank">this one</a>, and lastly <a href="http://www.emporiarussianclub.blogspot.com/2012/02/post-2-on-vowel-pronunciation.html" target="_blank">this one </a>for all you need to know. No worries ~ we'll go over everything together, but you may want to familiarize yourself a bit before hand for fun.<br />
<br />
It's been a blast starting this little group and being your pres - I look forward to seeing where it goes!<br />
Clara <br />

I know it has been a hectic time for all, myself certainly not excluded; we've decided to meet tomorrow at 2:15pm at Java Cat. Come join us if you can! We'll do some planning and some conversational practice.<br />

In the mean time, I believe I owe you all some poems!<br />

Hello All,<br />
I'm not feeling well and will not be at the meeting tonight, however please do not let that stop you from meeting!<br />
<br />
A few notes: 1) on the 13th of Nov I'll read the poem "Russian -American Romance" at the International Education Festival. 2) Shirts will be done soon, if you brought one tonight, just bring it by the Center for Student Involvement - say it's for me, and someone at the front desk will put it on my desk and I'll get the emblem on it or we can all schedule a time to do our shirts together :) 3) As to the movie night, may I suggest Russian Arc? Talk about what you'd like and just get back to me whenever!<br />
<br />
I posted up some Russian language things a few posts back, that's your homework to practice and study tonight. Sorry to miss two weeks in a row, but am really not feeling well tonight.<br />
<br />
Have a great meeting! I look forward to hearing from you all on thoughts about movie, shirts, and your vision for the club!<br />
<br />

After many different ideas were gone over last semester, including a sunflower of course, and a matryoshka doll, the outline of the country itself, and cheburashka, there wasn't really a complete decision made. So, as I'm making a stencil for it - I looked at what would be easiest to make and came up with this - what do you think? If any of the other ideas sound better we can still do that - just let me know :)<br />
<br />
See you all soon at the Inner Bean!<br />
<br />

Hello Russian Club!<br />
<br />
I have several points to make, and will be quick about it :)<br />
<br />
1. T-SHIRTS!<br />
I'll bring several designs we can choose from next week, just bring a t-shirt next wednesday and we'll make it! This is a stencil, I'll have several dyes mixed up and thickened that you can spray onto the stencil. Feel free to use several colors if you like and be creative! As to t-shirts, bring a light color that the dye will show up on. (I'll have black, red, blue, green, and violet)<br />
<br />
2. BAKE SALE!<br />
Lets plan for sometime before thanksgiving break? I will bring forest berry perogi, sweet quark perogi, and some other sweet baked things...I'll have to look through the cook book. I'll bring a cookbook next week and we can go through it. Not everyone needs to bake something, if you can just donate your time running the booth that'll be great! I will supply a table and the envelope of small bills to make change. Proceeds will go to help us send the box of donated art supplies to Maria's Children and if we have any left will help us go on a field trip! There are a few opportunities, lets each look up some Midwest Russian events and talk about it next week! :)<br />
<br />
3. MOVIE NIGHT!<br />
Look two posts back and vote for the movie you want to see! You can leave a comment even if you don't have a blogger profile, or you can email me at ccorn@g.emporia.edu, or let me know on facebook. Speaking of facebook - do you all think this blog is enough, or should we create a facebook group? Movie night, by the way, should be scheduled between thanksgiving break and the end of the semester. Lets schedule that soon and make posters! I can see about scheduling a room in Plumb hall.<br />
<br />
4. SONGS!<br />
Sorry, I have been extraordinarily busy lately, but you can all expect about 10 Russian songs as well as lyrics in both languages in your email by next week. Please let me know if you DON'T want that to go to your emporia email. <br />
<br />
5. INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION WEEK Nov 12-16.<br />
From buzzin:<br />
<i>Subject: DISPLAY YOUR CULTURE WITH PRIDE DURING INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION WEEK!<br />Date: Oct 10, 2012 3:32:24 PM<br />Are you interested in performing something fun and cultural for International Education Week?<br /><br />The
Office of International Education is going to present an International
Culture Show that showcases cultural performances from any country
and/or culture during International Education Week on Tuesday, November
13, 2012.<br />
<br />If you are interested in performing something (e.g. a song, dance,
musical instrument, poetry reading, play, fashion show, demonstration,
etc.) that represents a particular culture and/or country please email
Dinusha at swarusav@emporia.eduwith your name (or name of group),
description of the performance, and contact information by October 22,
2012.<br />
<br />If you want to form a group that represents a culture or already
belong to a student organization that represents a culture you are more
than welcome to participate in the event!</i><br />
<br />
I think this could be fun! The only performance I can think of is that I can dance, and if any of you sing I can coach you on a GORGEOUS Russian song, and would even be ok performing with you, (I just don't sing much) It would be a good opportunity to set up a booth with some info about Russia and Russian club and why we exist.<br />
<br />
<b>6. RUSSIAN CLUB TONIGHT - I've had something come up and won't be able to make our club meeting ): For anyone who does meet up, here is something you can practice!</b><br />
<br />
Colors~~~ let's talk about our favorite colors!<br />
<br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Мой любимый цвет... (Moi lyoubimi tsvyet...) (My favorite color...)</span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">add to that your favorite color - listed below. </span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">example: <b><span style="color: #38761d;"><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Мой любимый цвет зелёный.</span></span></span></b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">(notice there is no light blue (</span></span><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">голубой) we'll talk about that color next week, as well as the two Russian blues which are very different in their meanings and uses.)</span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"> I advise you to print out the post on the alphabet and pronunciation
and look at it as you practice. This will help you remember
pronunciation better and which letters are which. </span></span> </span></span><br />

My name is Stephanie and I am the Russian Club secretary. Here's a little about myself in case you haven't been able to meet for Russian Club. I became passionate for Russia after working with some Ukranian and Russian people while I was in Turkey. After I came back to the States, I took a course in Russian History and began learning the Russian language. I fell more in love with the country and plan to go there someday. Actually, I also have a tattoo on my back left shoulder in cyrillic script. </span><span style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">пр</span></span></i><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold;"><i>и</i></span><i><span style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">нцесса</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Enough about me, onto the more important stuff - Russia!!!</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> In lieu of Homecoming celebrations this past weekend and holidays coming up, we thought it would be fun to post some Russian holidays and how they are celebrated. After all, who doesn't love celebrating things?</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span></i><br />
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><i> Unity Day is a public holiday celebrated on November 4. This day celebrates the liberation of Polish and Lithuanian invaders from Moscow from an uprising led by Kuzam Minin and Dimitri Pozharsky in 1612. It has also expanded to include celebration of the end of the Time of Troubles and Polish-Muscovite War. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><i> In 1918, the Bolsheviks changed the holiday to November 7 to celebrate the October Revolution. The October Revolution was when the Bolsheviks took control over Petrograd. The Russian Federation made November 7 a regular day in 2005 and reestablished Unity Day on November 4 like it had been from 1612 - 1917. The feast day for Our Lady of Kazan in the Russian Orthodox Church also falls on November 4.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><i> Unity Day in Russia is celebrated in different ways. Some lay flowers on the monuments of Kuzam Minin and Dimitri Pozharsky. Others go to the concerts or exhibitions. Most however see it as a day where they get a day off of work. Russian Orthodox Christians attend a service for the feast day ending with a procession. Many public figures speak on television about unity of ethnic and religious groups in the Russian Federation. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">

You should all be getting an email soon including some mp3s you can download; however, there is one song that I used to have on my ipod, but don't have anymore, but it's one of my favorites so I wanted to post it here for you. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mb5TjO_MuU8" target="_blank">Click here</a>.<br />

<b>Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> </b><br />
<br />
Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> <br />С Иванова в Оскол,<br />По серой полосе<br />Вдоль городов и сёл,<br />С Урала в Туапсе <br />
Во всей своей красе,<br />В кроссовках и джинсе<br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span>.<br /><br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span>, <br />Да по таким местам,<br />Где впору окосеть, <br />Взглянув по сторонам:<br />Заброшены дома, <br />Разбиты трактора,<br />Как будто здесь война<br />
Была ещё вчера.<br /><br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> <br />Из Углича в Саров,<br />Меж воинских частей, <br />Да заводских цехов,<br />Где трудятся в дыму <br />И производят дым,<br />Не нужный никому,<br />Ни мёртвым, ни живым.<br /><br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> <br />
С Донбасса на Кузбасс,<br />Чрез угольный бассейн, <br />Где в каменную пасть<br />Людей уносит клеть <br />К забоям и кайлам,<br />Где добывают смерть <br />С углём напополам.<br /><br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> <br />Сквозь дикие края,<br />Где разве что "Газель" <br />
Проедет раз в три дня,<br />На остановку ждать<br />Выходят стар и мал,<br />Ой, надо бы бежать, <br />Да транспорта нема.<br /><br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span> <br />С наказом от родных,<br />С печалями за всех, <br />Пока ещё живых,<br />Шла к батюшке царю, <br />
К боярам в Белый Дом,<br />Уставясь на зарю, <br />Уже почти бегом.<br /><br />Я сам её видал <br />Меж Нижним и Торжком<br />И даже денег дал <br />На пиво с пирожком,<br />Не плачь, моя страна, <br />Надейся, мой народ,<br />Я верю, что она <br />
Когда-нибудь дойдёт.<br /><br />И всполошится царь,<br />И поперхнётся власть,<br />И людям просто в дар <br />Земли и денег даст,<br />Зайдёт любви заря,<br />И засмеются все,<br />Нельзя же, чтобы зря <br />Шла <span class="il">Саша</span> по <span class="il">шоссе</span>.<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=2864219721312622640" name="132cb3caf9df2415_cutid1-end"></a><br /><br />
Translation:<br /><br />Sasha walked on the highway<br />From Ivanovo to Oskol,<br />From the Urals to Tuapse,<br />In all her glory,<br />In sneakers and jeans<br />Sasha was on the highway. <br /><br />Sasha walked on the highway,<br />
But in such places<br />Where its possible to drive insane <br />Looking around:<br />Abandoned houses<br />Broken tractors<br />It's like a war here<br /> was only yesterday. <br /><br />Sasha walked on the highway<br />From Uglich to Sarov,<br />
Between units<br />And the factories,<br />Where people work in smoke<br />And produce smoke,<br />which is not necessary for anyone<br />Neither dead nor alive. <br /><br />Sasha was on the highway<br />From Donbass to Kuzbass,<br />Through the coal basin,<br />
Where mined death<br />With coal in half. <br /><br />Sasha walked on the highway<br />Through the wild region,<br />Where "Gazelle"(something like combination of car and bus, produced in Russia)<br />Appears once in three days<br />
To bus stop waiting for it<br />Go old people and children .<br />Yes,there is no transport . <br /><br /> Sasha walked on the highway<br />With instructions from home,<br />With sadness for all,<br />who is still alive<br />Went to our father -tzar,<br />
By the boyars in the White House ( its our government's house in moscow)<br />Gazing at the sunset,<br />Almost running. <br /><br />I myself have seen it<br />Between Nizhniy and Torzhok<br />And even gave her money<br />On the beer with a pie,<br />
Do not cry, my country,<br />Hope, my people,<br />I believe that once upon a time<br />She will come to the finish point.<br /><br />And tzar will start to panic,<br />And government will gag<br />and simply give to all people money and land,<br />
Everyone will laugh and love everybody...<br />Because its impossible that Sasha walked on highway for nothing.<br />
<br />
A description about the song from my dear friend, Lera Privolneva:<br />
<br />
(Sasha
is personification of revolution, of the youth' hopes for good future -
certainly youth can make revolution. But sure such hopes almost
fantastic - not only because its impossible to change things quickly.
Russian mentality is the main cause - endless patience of our people is
actually the main problem, which preserved things as they are.)<br />
<br />
Now, lets look at some movies we can choose from for a movie night!<br />

<span></span><br />

Synopsis:<br />
An
unseen man regains consciousness, not knowing who or where he is. No
one seems to be able to see him, except the mysterious man dressed in
black. He eventually learns through their discussions that this man is a
19th century French aristocrat, who he coins the "European". This turn
of events is unusual as the unseen man has a knowledge of the present
day. The two quickly learn that they are in the Winter Palace of the
Hermitage in St. Petersburg, the European who has a comprehensive
knowledge of Russian history to his time. As the two travel through the
palace and its grounds, they interact with people from various eras of
Russian history, either through events that have happened at the palace
or through the viewing of artifacts housed in the museum. Ultimately,
the unseen man's desired journey is to move forward, with or without his
European companion. Shot in one take, in one continuous shot. No rating

<br />
<strong>Everything Will be Alright</strong><br />
<br />
I'm sorry, I don't have a preview for this, but the entire movie can be found online on youtube.<br />
<br />
Synopsis:<br />
Kolya
(Anatoli Guravlev) and Olga (Olga Ponezova) are stepsiblings who grew
up together and loved each other ever since they were children. As
expected, upon his return from military service, Kolya proposes and
preparation for a wedding is under way. But the penniless couple doesn't
win their parents approval–Kolya's mother is particularly discouraging,
as all her life she has dreamed for her son to marry a rich girl with
good background–and an apartment.<br />
<br />
Into the chaotic town
arrives Smirnov (Alexander Zbruev), old flame of Kolya's mother who's
now a successful businessman, and his son Petya (Mark Garanok), a
20-year-old prodigy and Nobel Prize laureate. As soon as the dashing,
educated youngster lays his yes on Olga, it's clear that a fateful
night–and all kinds of complications–will ensue on the way to church
altar.<br />
<br />
It's to the credit of scripter Romanenko and
director Astrakhan that, though they employ the basic structure of a
fairy tale, there's still genuine suspense. To the last minute, it's
unclear who'll be the lucky fellow to wed the charming, if also totally
confused and unpredictable Olga.<br />
No rating information. 110 mins long.<br />

<strong>Rusalka</strong><br />

<br />
Her
name was Alice, she lived on the sea. Her life was no different from
others. She dreamed of ballet, sang in a children's choir and went to
school. In six years, she stopped talking. At 17 she moved to Moscow.
Exactly 18, she met him ... and disappeared ... as often happens in the
city.<br />

<br />
<strong>Chelovek s kinoapparatom</strong> (A Man with movie-camera) Silent film from 1929<br />
<br />
No trailer, but the full film can be found online on youtube.<br />
<br />
Dziga
Vertov's experimental film grew out of his belief, shared by his
editor, Elizaveta Svilova (who was also his wife), and his
cinematographer, Mikhail Kaufman (also his brother), that the true goal
of cinema should be to present life as it is lived. To that end, the
filmmakers offer a day-in-the-life portrait of a city from dawn until
dusk, though they actually shot their footage in several cities,
including Kyiv, Kharkiv and Odesa. After an opening statement, there are
no words in the film (neither voice-over nor titles), just dazzling
imagery, kinetically edited - as a celebration of the modern city with a
marked emphasis on its buildings and machinery.<br />
<br />
New
composition performed by the Alloy Orchestra (1995), based on notes
left by Vertov. It incorporates sound effects such as sirens, babies
crying, crowd noise, etc.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>White Nights</strong><br />
<br />
watch the trailor here: <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DOqUzTqdChNs&h=jAQE5st__&s=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqUzTqdChNs</a></strong><br />
<br />
This one is an American made movie, but with a Russia-America plot, starring Mikhail Baryshnikov and Gregory Hines.<br />
Nikolai
Rochenko, a Russian ballet dancer who 8 years ago defected to the
West. He is in a plane flying over Russia when all of a sudden, a
malfunction forces the plane to land in Russia. The KGB tells everyone
that his injuries are so severe that he has to remain confide for a
while. But in reality they want him to return to them, so they bring him
to his old apartment and an American, Raymond Greenwood, who himself
defected to Russia several years ago, is placed there to keep an eye on
him. However, Rochenko is not about to give in and is determined to
escape. So with help from his former lover, he gets word to the
Americans. And even Raymond is started to be disillusioned with Russia,
and he has to decide if he is going to do what he was sent to do or
help Rochenko.<br />
<br />
<strong>Stilyagi</strong><br />
<br />
Watch the trailer: <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DKOwK0kr1gZI&h=MAQFzCVLC&s=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOwK0kr1gZI</a></strong><br />
<br />
This
is the story of Moscow in the early fifties, in which young people
have to fight for the right to not be like everyone else, but listen to
different music, wear different clothes and of course, love.<br />
While
the Cold War heats up on the world stage, rebellious youth in 1955
Moscow wage a cultural battle against dismal Soviet conformity, donning
brightly colored black-market clothing, adopting American nicknames and
reveling in forbidden jazz. Straight-laced 20-year-old Communist Mels
finds these brazen 'Stilyagi' shocking until he falls under the spell
of one, namely Polly, and joins the new revolution. Soon he's a
peacock, cavorting in the latest flashy fashions, sporting an enormous
pompadour and wailing on the saxophone.<br />
<br />

Hello All! (<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Привет,</span> <span class="hps">все!)</span></span>There have been quite a few new people sign up to learn more about Russian Club and perhaps join us! So lets get to know eachother this wednesday at 7pm at the Inner Bean. <br />
<br />
I'm sorry this post will be quite short, as I am only taking a break from my thesis-writing and sorting out my plans for after graduation. (Graduation may be in May, but I have a lot to do to prep for Phd..and moving to Germany if all goes to plan, but that's beside the point.) I'm a bit sleepy, bear with me <span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">мои друзья (my friends).</span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">1. Look to the last post for our agenda as these are the things we still need to talk about. </span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">2. Theses are the officer positions which can still be filled:</span></span><br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Secretary</span></span></li>
<li><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Treasurer</span></span></li>
<li><span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Historian</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">We can talk about what each of those positions do at the next meeting on wednesday.</span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">3. Sunflowers, Greetings and Tea: Fun stuff! </span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Sunflowers! Lets talk t-shirts! I've come up with a possible design which includes a sunflower and our name written in cyrillic. We can tye dye these or whatever! Lets chat about it wednesday. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Greetings! Also on wednesday we can practice a few greetings and small talk! For me, the trickiest thing is pronunciation, it may be the same for you ~ lets practice together - even if you've never spoken a word of Russian before! You'll find some great lists of greetings among other things in our archives here on this site. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Tea! A great drink to share as we converse, of course Inner Bean has coffee as well, so lets just get together, sit on those comfy cushions and chat Russia and Russian language!</span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">See you all Wednesday at 7pm. If you've never met me before - I'll be the girl with the short blonde hair in the black shirt and tall boots drinking black tea (I'm predictable). Um, and I'll be reading a book of Russian fairytales. I'll get there a bit early so just look for me! </span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Need directions to the Inner Bean? Email Me!</span></span><br />
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps"><br /></span></span>
<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">See you Wednesday! (<span class="short_text" id="result_box" lang="ru"><span class="hps">Увидимся</span> <span class="hps">среду!)</span></span></span></span><br />
