Evening Medusa

October 16. Mayakovsky - rapper, Turchak - pilgrim, Lagutenko - anniversary

News (with comments)

Repeated elections in Primorye are scheduled for December 16 (do not plan anything for this day, there will probably be a thriller there). Oleg Sentsov’s sister called his condition critical (and the FSIN duty claims that everything is in order with him). Garbage from Moscow will be exported to the Arkhangelsk region (and why not immediately to Chukotka?). Roskomnadzor could not find links to pirate sites in Yandex and therefore will not be fined (sometimes the inability to do its work leads to positive results). Stockmann finally left Russia (but he is in Riga). Andrei Turchak managed to go to Athos before the Russian Orthodox Church forbade such pilgrimages (coincidence? We do not think!). Winamp will return in 2019 as a mobile application (aaaaa, rather!).

Two important anniversaries (and tests in honor of them)

50 years Ilya Lagutenko. It is impossible to believe, but the soloist of the main Russian rock- (or pop-? Or rockapops? However, it doesn’t matter!)-Groups today are 50 years old (and directly “Mummy Troll”-35). Check if you remember the texts of the most important hits of Ilya Lagutenko.

30 years "slave Isaure." On October 16, 1988, the inhabitants of the USSR watched the first series of the series “Slave Izaur” - it was with it that the story of “soap operas” on Soviet and Russian television began. I wonder if you remember the main plot lines of the legendary drama (this is much more complicated than the texts of the Mumiy Troll!).

The text of the day

Since September 14, The Insider and Bellingcat publish joint materials on people that the UK accuses of trying to poison Sergei Skripal. It was they who confirmed the involvement of “Alexander Petrov” and “Ruslan Boshirov” in the special services, and then the first called their alleged real names - Alexander Mishkin and Anatoly Chepig. The Special Corps of Medusa Konstantin Benyumov asked the editor -in -chief of The Insider Roman Dobrokhotov and an employee Bellingcat Khrista Grozhev about how they investigated the incident in Salisbury - and what they will be for it.

And - quote of the day

Vladimir Medinsky, as he has repeatedly done, continues to invent an alternative history of Russia (and peace). This time he stated that rap is Russian art. ~~ ~ and Tupak was introduced into the Western show business by the GRU agent ~~.
