According to the DPA, citing security sources, there is no reason for this, but an attack using explosive devices must be taken seriously

And today, the coalition, which includes the Party of Progress Aleksey Navalny, RPR-Parnas, Andrei Nechaev’s “Civil Initiative” and three more parties, announced his intention to take part in the September regional elections.

Urbanist, candidate for deputies of the Moscow City Duma Maxim Katz - about Anton Buslov *Original: Livejournal We met Anton almost three years ago. He then said that he has cancer in the terminal stage and he would definitely die within a year. He said as if it were something completely ordinary and not requiring much attention, he told and immediately switched to discussing some of our then project, an exhibition, or something. I was then surprised how you can relate to such a situation.

On Thursday there was a meeting of deputies of the North-West District of Moscow with Mayor Sergei Sobyanin. At the end of the week, I will write in detail about the meeting and post a video of my question and answer to it, and in general there were many entertaining points at the meeting.

Photo: Atsamaz Dzivaev/PublicPost About myself I was born in North Ossetia, in what was once Ingushetia. I'm Ingush. He studied in Vladikavkaz at a construction technical school. After graduating from construction in 1989, I was assigned to the Smolensk region for three years. Worked as a foreman. We had a program for the revival of the Smolensk village, and we revived it until the Union collapsed and everything that was revived was dismantled. I did not return to North Ossetia.

If the mayor of Moscow sometimes went to the street unaccompanied by the retinue, guard and the press, as well as without the global training of all district authorities, he would know what the Moscow janitor looks like, and would never have allowed to take off such a ridiculous plot for any Muscovite. Mr. Sobyanin, come, or something, somehow in Schukino, we will stick a mustache here and ride around Moscow on the subway, take a walk along different streets without prior preparation.

St. Petersburg police stopped a mass snowball fight that was supposed to take place on the Champ de Mars. The “Snow Battle” was announced via a social network page, attracting more than a thousand potential participants. A few minutes after it started, law enforcement officers arrived on the field. They told those gathered that the action was not coordinated and the actions were illegal, and called on everyone to disperse.

It’s not for nothing that there is an expression in Washington: “Laws are like sausages - it is best not to see them being made.” The process of a meeting of any collegial body for an unprepared observer looks like hellish insanity, an action with low efficiency and efficiency, and it is not clear why it is happening.

I understand perfectly well, many arguments against bicycle infrastructure in Moscow are far from driving, cold, dirty and so on. But let's open a little door for arguments on the other hand and study a little information collected by city projects. Look, this is the map of the district around the Schukinskaya metro with public transport routes and time on the way from stopping to the metro.

I am very interested in who works in the Moscow government. In general, I have long been interested in who works as officials - because the work is low -paid, nervous, very unfree and complex, it is difficult to imagine who is going to work for the civil service and why.

As you may remember, in May the Municipal Assembly elected me to head the commission for the improvement of the Shchukino district. The situation with landscaping in Moscow districts is approximately the same everywhere; here, for example, is a typical sidewalk in my area: And here is a sidewalk in the Dutch city of Middelburg. I specifically chose the city of Middelburg, and not Amsterdam, Paris or Zurich - it is a small provincial town with a population of 40,000 people.

The first thing that catches your eye in the first three cities of the expedition (Berlin, Munich and especially Zurich) is the huge extensive tram networks, with dedicated lines, special tram traffic lights, cool transfer points, etc.

In the study area, we consider not only the pedestrian flow that I wrote about in the past post, but also much more. How many people are waiting for transport, and how many people, how many people eat on the street, how many people sit on fences and other places that are not intended for this, in the end how many people are simply worth and communicate.

A few days ago I was present in the Moscow City Duma and observed the adoption of the law on the cost of evacuation. Previously, in the MGD, they adopted a law on increasing fines for irregular parking by about 10 times. The Moscow City Duma is currently a depressing sight - there are 32 United Russia, 3 deputies from the Communist Party and that's it.
