Frankly speaking, spring is a difficult season, a transitional one. Throws from warm to cold and from cold to warm - some kind of temperature swing. And this is especially noticeable in May. So the weather forecast this month is a complete mess, a special genre. The storyline of weather stories in May is replete with dashing turns and unexpected digressions, not always lyrical.

May 19 – 86 years of the pioneer organization. One could, of course, speculate whether it is needed today... But for some reason it seems more promising to me to talk about Pantyukhov and Zhukov - two knights of the scout movement, the forgotten founders of the pioneer organization. And you can judge for yourself whether the organization they dreamed of is possible in today’s Russia. And is it compatible with sovereign democracy and budget development?

Among the main appointees to the new government is FSB Director Alexander Bortnikov. He is also one of the most unknown and closed characters. Childhood of a security officer The young years of ex-FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev are described in detail - everything is known: what desk he sat at and with whom he was friends ("Interlocutor" wrote about this 2 years ago) - with the future Speaker of the State Duma Boris Gryzlov and the future Deputy Director of the FSB Sergei Smirnov.

In May of this year, the Russian government approved a new living wage - 4,005 rubles. The “interlocutor” was figuring out how to live on this money. The living wage is not taken out of thin air. It is calculated using a special method developed by the government. Basically, they count the food products that a person must eat in order not to stretch his legs or lose his pants, the minimum amount of which is also scrupulously calculated by officials.

One not very beautiful spring day, 160 railway workers near Moscow, dissatisfied with the size of their salaries, went on strike and did not put several dozen commuter trains on the route. Because of this riot, Russian Railways had to call back the “correct” locomotive crews from vacation and from reserve. In essence, it was a conflict between official trade unions (Rosprofzhel), favored by the leadership, and alternative ones (with an unpronounceable name - RPLBZH).

One day, Alexander and his wife and twins Frol and Ustinya came to a kitten exhibition - it was there that Frol saw me. Styusha didn’t leave empty-handed either; she really liked my brother. They named him Jose. He and I are completely different: I love to jump and play with Frol, and Jose is a complete idiot. He can lie on Ustinya’s bed all day long, and he doesn’t need anything else.

In Oryol, a soldier threw himself out of a window during army leave so as not to return to duty. A conscript from Lipetsk hanged himself in one of the military units in the Moscow region. Two formal suicides in one day, May 3. In the first three months of this year there were 45 of them. Soldiers leave the army and life without permission. And their parents then spend years looking for those who pushed their children to death. Found in a loop...

From the unpopular spot development of the capital, the Moscow authorities are moving to clearing out entire blocks of prestigious areas of the city. People are being evicted into unfinished houses without title deeds. No one hears the colonels On the next anniversary of the Victory, the mood of hundreds of Moscow veterans (marshals, generals, Heroes of the Soviet Union) is by no means festive.

1 Earthquake in China The news about the earthquake in China was presented to CNN with a smile. The smile, as in the case of Indonesia, blows away only on the third day. I wonder if it takes so long for them to understand what they read from the prompter, or is it a barrage of criticism that hits them? wodedao (Livejournal.com) Thousands of dead, tens of thousands missing...

A remake of Vladimir Menshov’s debut film “The Hoax” (1976) will be available to watch in cinemas from May 22. The author of the script for Menshov’s film was Pavel Lungin’s father, Semyon Lungin. That is, it is no coincidence that the new film was shot at Pavel Lungin’s studio. In his introductory remarks, he noted that, in his opinion, the film turned out well. Moreover, the new film, directed by Andrei Kudinenko, is not at all similar to the one directed by Menshov.

90 percent of the world's microprocessors are made in the state of California, and Californians like to say from time to time that if they separated from the United States, they would rank third in the world in terms of GDP - after the rest of the United States and Japan, no joke! However, we are interested in local cuisine - a spicy combination of such disparate cuisines as Japanese, Italian, Mexican and American. 1 Add onion to avocado...
