This week the Russian born felt-maker Elena Bondar who has established a second career as an artist in her adopted country of Finland. Elena taught herself the art of wool and felt-making, and since 2010 she has been crafting bespoke wool paintings, infusing them, she says, with the strategic planning, self-reliance, and dedication to excellence honed during her athletic career. Elena was born in the Ural Mountains near Ekaterinburg, Russia in 1981—one of two children—she has an older brother, Andrey, to parents Svetlana Moskovskikh, a technology engineer, and Yuri Moskovskikh, a chemical engineer. She spent a happy childhood learning crafts from her mother and grandmother before attending the School of Art in Novouralsk for eight years. She then turned to sports at the Secondary School for Olympic Reserves, Ekaterinburg as a Specialist in Physical Education and Sports from 1999-2002 followed by the Ekaterinburg State Institute of Education for Physical Education Teaching from 2002-2007. In addition to music and art school Elena also participated in sports such as volleyball and track and field. However, it wasn't until she was16, with encouragement from her new coach, that she started taking sports seriously. Elena subsequently began a professional career, which led to becoming the 2009 European Rogaining Champion. She also competed in the 2009 World Ski-Orienteering Championships in Rusutsu, Japan, and Adventure Racing World Series in South Africa, Portugal, Sweden and Turkey. After retiring from pro sports, Elena moved to Finland where she met her partner Ville Rissanen, and decided to revisit her interest in art. She attended the JEDU Vocational Education Centre, Piippola from 2015 - 2017 earning a Bachelor of Arts and Crafts degree. And she is currently undergoing specialized vocational education specializing in industrial arts and design in Jyväskylä. As well as crafting her wool and felt-making, Elena teaches the art in person and online both in Finnish and English.

In questa lezione riprendiamo a parlare di guerra civile russa, espressione che cela il contributo fondamentale fornito alle armate bianche controrivoluzionarie dai paesi dell'Intesa e dai loro alleati già durante gli ultimi mesi della Grande guerra e poi negli anni del primo dopoguerra. Abbiamo modo di citare l'esecuzione dello Zar e della sua famiglia ad Ekaterinburg, la lotta al potere per la successione alla leadership rivoluzionaria tra Trotskij e Stalin, le purghe staliniane, l'incubo del contagio comunista che invade l'emisfero occidentale del mondo. Proviamo a raccontare questa storia mettendoci nella prospettiva visuale di tutte le parti in commedia nel momento in cui i fatti avvenivano. E' naturale ricorrere alla rivoluzione francese come a un termine di paragone. In coda affrontiamo il tema del comunismo di guerra e dei suoi orrori. In copertina: requisizione di grano ai contadini durante il comunismo di guerra. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stefano-dambrosio5/message
Dawn breaks on 16th July 1918. For Nicholas, Alexandra, and the rest of the Romanov family this is just another day in exile. They sit down for breakfast - today it is eggs - and then go about their usual business. The Romanovs had been out in the cold ever since Nicholas II's abdication over a year earlier. First they had lived in their own home, then they were moved to Siberia. Now they have ended up in Ekaterinburg. Outside their compound, the Civil War was going badly for the Bolsheviks. The Whites were taking territory across Russia, including one army that was approaching Ekaterinburg. Fearing the Whites could recapture the former tsar and rally around him, operation 'chimney sweep' was put into action that night. Early in the morning on 17th July 1918, the order was given: the tsar and his family were all to be executed. Listen as William and Anita are joined for the final time by Simon Sebag Montefiore to discuss the murder of the Romanovs. Twitter: @Empirepoduk Email: empirepoduk@gmail.com Goalhangerpodcasts.com Producer: Callum Hill Exec Producer: Jack Davenport + Neil Fearn Learn more about your ad choices.

Alan Stang discusses the strange story of Michael Goleniewski. Goleniewski was born in 1922 in Nieśwież, then in Poland, now Belarus. He enlisted in the Polish Army in 1945 and was commissioned a lieutenant colonel in the Polish Army in 1955. He studied law at the University of Poznan and received a master's degree in political science from the University of Warsaw in 1956. He said he was head of the Technical and Scientific Department of the Polish Secret Service from 1957 to 1960. At the same time, he was spying on Polish intelligence operations for the Soviet Union.[1]In early 1959, Goleniewski became a triple-agent, anonymously sending Polish and Soviet secrets addressed to the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) by letter.[2] He insisted on communicating with the FBI, knowing that all other agencies had been penetrated by Soviet bloc intelligence. His letters were actually intercepted by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), who did not inform the FBI. According to Tim Tate, author of the 2021 book The Spy Who Was Left Out in the Cold, Goleniewski's motive, unlike most defectors who sought a better life outside the Soviet Union, was that he "realised that the communist system was wrong. And that he needed, ... to counter it, and to start working for the west and democracy".[3]The US CIA gave him the code-name 'SNIPER', UK's MI5 gave him 'LAVINIA'.[2] In April 1959, the CIA informed MI5 that SNIPER (his real name was still unknown) had said the Polish Służba Bezpieczeństwa (UB) had a British informant inside the Royal Navy. This person was later found to be Harry Houghton. The CIA also told MI5 that Goleniewski had received top secret documents originating from a Soviet mole inside MI6.[4] The mole himself (who later turned out to be George Blake) heard the news that the CIA had a top-level informant in Poland, and sent word back to the KGB, who passed it to the UB. Goleniewski heard the news from the KGB, and immediately escaped.[5] He also provided information that led to the arrests of American diplomat Irvin C. Scarbeck, Swedish Air Force officer Stig Wennerström, as well as Heinz Felfe and Hans Clemens, who penetrated the West German BND for the KGB.[6] Goleniewski also claimed that there was a Soviet-controlled organisation of former Nazis - which he nicknamed 'Hacke' - that was active in postwar West Germany.[7]He defected to the United States in January 1961, which led to the imprisonment of Soviet agents in Britain including the Portland Spy Ring and George Blake.[8] Goleniewski went to work for the CIA, and a Polish court sentenced him to death in absentia. A private bill, H.R. 5507, was introduced in the U.S. Congress in July 1963 to make Goleniewski a US citizen. The legislation was passed by both the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate.[1]According to Tate, who used freedom of information requests to obtain CIA files on Goleniewski which had never been made public before, Goleniewski as of 2021 had identified more spies than any other defector or agent. Tate has also written a background article on him [9] However, when Anatoliy Golitsyn defected to the US, he convinced the CIA's head of counter-intelligence that only he, Golitsyn, was a true defector, all others being bogus. From 1964 the CIA started to renege on its contract with Goleniewski and brief other government departments that he had lost his mind. This caused Goleniewski much financial and emotional distress, and he lost his grip on reality, becoming paranoid, and ultimately completely insane, according to Tate. Although CIA records were obtained, Britain's MI5 file on Goleniewski was not released, with MI5 claiming "continuing sensitivity".[3]Claim that he was Tsarevich Alexei[edit]Goleniewski later made the claim that he was Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich, who is now known to have been killed with his family by Bolsheviks at Ekaterinburg, Russia on 17 July 1918. Goleniewski claimed that Yakov Yurovsky, one of the assassins, saved the family and helped them to escape. The whole family supposedly traveled to Poland via Turkey, Greece, and Austria. According to his story, the family lived in hiding in Poland.[8] As author Guy Richards (one of Goleniewski's supporters) has pointed out, he was not the first Tsarevich Alexei claimant to emerge from Poland; several decades earlier, in 1927, a pretender named Eugene Nicolaievich Ivanoff had appeared from the same part of that country and generated a brief flurry of publicity in Europe and North America.[10]Tsarevich Alexei, who was born in August 1904, was a haemophiliac. Goleniewski, whose identity card gave his date of birth as 1922, making him eighteen years younger than the Tsarevich, claimed that the haemophilia made him appear younger than he really was and he had been "twice a child." He claimed that his haemophilia had been confirmed by Alexander S. Wiener, who had co-discovered the Rh factor in human blood. This claim was never confirmed.[8]He met one of the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia claimants, Eugenia Smith, in 1963. The meeting was covered by Life magazine. Goleniewski claimed that Smith was his sister Anastasia. Smith also recognized Goleniewski as her brother Alexei, even though she had claimed in her book that she had been the sole survivor at Ekaterinburg.[1]Marriage

In this episode of Align Podcast with Gerald Pollack, we talk all about the different types of water and whether water can have memory. Gerald tells us about the ‘fourth phase' of water and how this relates to the research between water and DNA. We also discuss how important easy water is for us and how this can increase the energy in our bodies. We question everything we know to be true about water and whether what we have been taught by textbooks is truly accurate.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=6989MENTRE L'UNIONE EUROPEA CHIACCHIERA, LA CATTOLICA POLONIA ACCOGLIE DUE MILIONI DI PROFUGHI UCRAINI di Cristina SiccardiLa Polonia è la nazione che sta accogliendo in Europa il maggior numero di profughi ucraini. Ad oggi si contano più di due milioni, con Varsavia in testa, che ha incrementato improvvisamente i suoi abitanti del 17%, per il momento. A tutti viene offerto vitto, alloggio, scuola, servizio sanitario nazionale, utilizzo dei mezzi pubblici... ma ciò vale per Varsavia come per Cracovia, Lublino, Łód, Breslavia... si è innescata una macchina organizzativa incredibile, grazie ad una gigantesca operazione antiburocratica e al lavoro infaticabile di sindaci, associazioni umanitarie e volontari. Il Paese sta reggendo un'ondata migratoria che non trova confronti nella storia d'Europa. Nell'estate del 2015 la cancelliera tedesca Angela Merkel prevedeva di accogliere in Germania un milione e 200 mila richiedenti asilo in fuga dalla Siria, la Polonia spiazza tutti, dando dimostrazione di tenacia e di forza.Un popolo serio, rigoroso e profondamente cattolico quello dei polacchi, che sentono gli ucraini non solo gente confinante, ma veri e propri fratelli. Questa è la realtà umana, che non è fatta di globalismo materialista costruito forzatamente a tavolino, perché esiste una grande e insopprimibile anima dei popoli: a volte amici o nemici, alleati od ostili fra di loro, ma che succhiano il loro essere dalla loro storia e dalla loro tradizione, tutti elementi che vanno rispettati - un'arte che ben conosce la fede cattolica - perché ciò fa parte della natura stessa dell'essere popolo e proprio per questo la disciplina storiografica è più che preziosa, perché fa comprendere le ragioni del presente, afferrando la cognizione di ciò che potrà accadere nel futuro prossimo.Proprio constatando questo eroismo polacco, di fronte al quale l'Unione europea, ringraziando, rimane basita, tornano alla mente fatti della storia moderna e contemporanea incancellabili dalla memoria storica della Polonia, che l'ha vista dilaniata in più riprese sia dai tedeschi che dai russi. La Seconda guerra mondiale prese le mosse proprio in questa nazione occupata dai nazisti, e come non ricordare il massacro nella foresta di Katyn? Qui si consumò l'esecuzione sommaria di circa 22.000 fra ufficiali, politici, professori, giornalisti e industriali polacchi, era la cosiddetta Intelligencija polacca, che venne sterminata dal Commissariato del popolo per gli affari interni dell'Unione Sovietica (NKVD) a circa 20 km ad ovest della città di Smolensk.SAN GIUSEPPE KALINOWSKIMa c'è la testimonianza di un santo che desideriamo proporre in questi tempi di guerra: stiamo parlando del carmelitano san Raffaele di san Giuseppe Kalinowski, beatificato da Giovanni Paolo II a Cracovia il 22 giugno 1983 e canonizzato il 17 novembre 1991 a Roma.Quando egli nacque, da un'antica e nobile famiglia polacca, il 1° settembre 1835 a Vilnius, in Lituania, la Polonia da circa quarant'anni non esisteva più sulle mappe geografiche perché era stata così spartita: l'82% era sotto la Russia, il 10% sotto l'Austria, l'8% sotto la Prussia. Questa situazione rimase tale fino al 1918, quando, a chiusura della Prima guerra mondiale, si aprirono scenari ancora più devastanti. In quegli anni la russificazione procedeva forzatamente: scopo degli Zar dell'epoca (gli ultimi Zar - la Famiglia imperiale Romanov - saranno trucidati a Ekaterinburg, nel luglio del 1918, dalla mano bolscevica, per poi essere canonizzati dalla Chiesa ortodossa russa il 15 agosto 2000) era quella di piegare il popolo polacco dal punto di vista militare, economico, culturale e religioso.Deportazioni, esecuzioni capitali sulla piazza del mercato e il terrore serpeggiava in Polonia, mentre Josef cresceva all'ombra del Santuario nazionale di Ostra Brama, che rappresenta per la Lituania l'equivalente di Czestochowa per la Polonia: è l'«Ausros Vartai», ossia la «Porta dell'Aurora», perché edificato al di sopra della porta orientale del muro di cinta, costruito intorno alla città all'inizio del XVI secolo. A partire dal XVIII secolo, la Chiesa riconobbe il carattere miracoloso dell'immagine mariana nera e Pio XI, nel 1927, concesse a Nostra Signora di Vilnius gli onori dell'incoronazione e il titolo di «Madre della Misericordia», immagine a cui padre Josef rimase per sempre devotamente legato. Altro luogo sacro che il giovane frequentava era la cattedrale della Santissima Trinità e dei Santi Stanislao e Ladislao di Vilnius, sulle cui tombe pregava per l'unità delle Chiese orientali con Roma.Conclusi gli studi all'Istituto dei Nobili a 16 anni, si iscrisse al biennio di Agronomia per poi approdare, con la sua predisposizione alla matematica ereditata dal padre, a San Pietroburgo alla Scuola di Ingegneria. Intelligente, riservato, brillante negli studi e apprezzato, confesserà avanti negli anni: «Considerando ora alcuni elementi importanti della mia vita, avrei dovuto allora (prima di partire per la Russia) chiedere di entrare nel seminario diocesano di Vilnius. E proprio perché non l'ho fatto, molti anni della mia vita, specialmente quelli della giovinezza, si sono frantumati in pezzi divisi tra loro, riuscendo senza profitto per me e per gli altri, convertendosi in vanità». Nel nuovo ambiente, infatti, la sua fede si affievolì poiché circondato dall'indifferentismo religioso e dal positivismo scientista. Il suo malessere spirituale lo formulò sinteticamente in questi termini: «Questa è la mia disgrazia: che cerco lo spirito e trovo sempre la materia».DIECI ANNI DI LAVORI FORZATI IN SIBERIADivenne Tenente Ingegnere e Assistente di Matematica nell'Accademia di San Pietroburgo. A 20 anni ritornò in patria, dove non si era allentata la morsa zarista. Venne incaricato di occuparsi della progettazione della ferrovia Kursk-Kiev-Odessa e dovette tracciare il percorso tra fango e paludi, ma proprio in questo contesto lavorò su se stesso, recuperando e irrobustendo la sua trascorsa fede. In particolare, un semplice libretto di devozione mariana, che trovò casualmente, fece emergere la calda e zelante fede polacca in lui.Poiché i lavori per la ferrovia vennero sospesi per mancanza di fondi, il promosso Capitano di Stato Maggiore venne assegnato alla fortezza di Brest-Litovski, con l'incarico di sovrintendere le fortificazioni e la loro manutenzione. Nel 1863 apprese dell'«Insurrezione di gennaio». Registrerà nelle sue Memorie, fonte preziosissima, come la sua corrispondenza, per comprendere al meglio la levatura intellettuale e spirituale di Kalinowski: «Troppo chiara era la visione interiore della lotta di un popolo disarmato contro la forza del governo russo che disponeva di una enorme e potente armata. Conservare l'uniforme di questo esercito, quando il cuore tremava nell'apprendere le notizie dello spargimento di sangue fraterno sarebbe stato inconcepibile. Mi domandavo: "Mi è permesso rimanere passivo, quando tanti sacrificano tutto per questa causa?"». Egli tentò di dissuadere gli insorti, per questo venne accusato di essere un vigliacco oppure una spia russa. Si mise a disposizione del «Consiglio Nazionale della Insurrezione» e venne nominato Ministro della guerra per la regione di Vilnius, ma accettò quell'incarico ad una sola condizione: non avrebbe mai firmato nessuna condanna a morte.Il Vescovo di Vilnius fu mandato in esilio e alcuni sacerdoti furono impiccati; mentre i conventi si trasformarono in prigioni. Josef fu arrestato, ma non denunciò nessuno, venne quindi condannato a morte, pena che gli venne commutata in dieci anni di lavori forzati, in Siberia. Deportato, ripercorse da condannato quelle terre sulle quali, come ufficiale, aveva disegnato il tracciato della ferrovia. Irkutsk, poi le saline di Usolye, presso il lago Bajkal: 8000 Km circa percorsi su vagoni ferroviari, carri, barche, ma anche a piedi. Dieci mesi di viaggio, intanto: «le pianure immense sotto e dietro gli Urali erano diventate un cimitero senza confini per decine di migliaia di vittime strappate dal seno della Madre Patria, e inghiottite per sempre».ASCESI E SANTITÀAscesi e santità iniziano in lui un massiccio percorso. Queste le sue riflessioni in Siberia «Il mondo può privarmi di tutto, mi resterà sempre un nascondiglio a lui inaccessibile: la preghiera. In essa si può raccogliere il passato e il presente, e anche il futuro, sotto la forma della speranza... Al di fuori della preghiera, non ho niente da offrire a Dio, posso dunque considerarla come l'unico mio dono. Non posso digiunare, non ho quasi nulla da dare in elemosina, mi mancano le forze per il lavoro; mi resta solo il soffrire e il pregare. Però mai ho avuto tesori più grandi. E non voglio altro». Dopo il lavoro forzato, pregava e leggeva, in particolare il Vangelo, l'Imitazione di Cristo, poemi tradotti di Dante e di Tasso, gli Esercizi di sant'Ignazio di Loyola, libri di teologia.Liberato nel 1874, gli venne negato di risiedere in Lituania. A 39 anni si mise ad insegnare - la sua grande passione -, diventando precettore del giovane principe polacco Augusto Czartoryski (1858-1893), che sarà beatificato a Roma da Giovanni Paolo II il 25 aprile 2004. La sua famiglia, da tre decenni, si era stabilita in Francia quando, dopo la rivoluzione del 1830 e la confisca dei beni, era stata posta al bando dalla Russia. Augusto, colpito dalla tubercolosi, nella sterile e voluttuaria vita parigina che lo opprimeva, conobbe san Giovanni Bosco, che gli cambiò la vita, entrando, infatti, nel 1886 nella Congregazione salesiana. A motivo della sua malattia venne mandato a completare gli studi nella salubre aria marina ligure, dove venne ordinato sacerdote a San Remo il 2 aprile 1892.
La guerra in Ucraina nella «seconda fase» annunciata dai russi. Le affermazioni del generale Minnekaev a Ekaterinburg e l'analisi degli obiettivi del conflitto. Perché nelle città controllate dai russi tornano i simboli del comunismo e dell'Unione sovietica.

Zitate aus dem Podcast: »Fotografie, wie ich sie betreibe, ist ein Reiben an der Realität.« »Die Frage ist immer, was erwartet man von einer Fotografie.« »Eins meiner Lieblingszitate von Arno Fischer: Wenn ich einen Mann an einer Bushaltestelle fotografiere, muss hinterher auf dem Bild mehr zu sehen sein, als ein Mann, der auf den Bus wartet.« »Das schwierige an Bildern ist, dass sie mehr zeigen als sie abbilden.« »Ich versuche der äusseren Wirklichkeit eine innere Wahrheit abzuringen.« »Das was mich an Kunst und Fotografie interessiert hat, war, das sie die Möglichkeiten boten zu einem poetischen Umgang mit der Wahrheit.« »Was Fotografie auch kann, ist: Man fotografiert etwas im Jetzt, was im Moment des Auslösens – rein faktisch – bereits Vergangenheit ist, was aber so aussieht, wie ein Blick in die Zukunft.« Andreas Rost wurde 1966 in Weimar geboren. Nach dem Abitur absolvierte er von 1984 bis 1985 eine Fotografenlehre in Dresden, begann 1988 an der HBG Leipzig Fotografie bei Arno Fischer und Evelyn Richter zu studieren und machte 1993 das Diplom.

Demente del giorno Disegna gli occhi a un dipinto di 900mila euro al suo primo giorno di lavoro: guardia giurata nei guai! Una guardia di sicurezza accusata di aver disegnato con una penna gli occhi sulle figure senza volto di un dipinto dal valore di 740mila sterline (circa 900mila euro) in una galleria d'arte russa. Il tutto al suo primo giorno di lavoro. Il dipinto “Tre figure” dell'artista Anna Leporskaya (1932-1934), è stato imbrattato mentre era esposto in una mostra d'arte astratta al Centro di Eltsin a la città di Ekaterinburg. L'uomo, un 60enne, è stato poi licenziato dalla società di sicurezza privata assunta dalla galleria e la polizia ha aperto un'indagine sulla deturpazione. Parlando al sito web russo ura.ru, la curatrice della mostra Anna Reshetkina ha detto che era stato il primo giorno di lavoro della guardia. “Le sue motivazioni sono ancora sconosciute, ma l'amministrazione ritiene che si sia trattato di una sorta di mancanza di sanità mentale”, ha detto al sito web. La guardia ha usato una penna a sfera per disegnare gli occhi sul dipinto penetrando uno strato di vernice. A quanto su apprende, lo avrebbe fatto perché si stava annoiando. Secondo The Art Newspaper Russia, fortunatamente il danno non è stato troppo profondo poiché il sospetto non ha esercitato una pressione sufficientemente forte sulla tela. Disegna gli occhi a un dipinto di 900mila euro: guardia giurata nei guai L'opera, in prestito dalla Galleria Statale Tretyakov di Mosca, è stata quindi inviata alla galleria della capitale russa il giorno successivo ed è stata ispezionata da un restauratore d'arte. La polizia ha ora aperto un'indagine per vandalismo, con una multa di £ 395 (479mila euro circa) e una condanna al lavoro correttivo di un anno. Il dipinto ora è in fase di restauro, il danno, secondo l'esperto di restauro presso la Galleria Statale Tretyakov, può essere eliminato senza alcun danno a lungo termine all'opera d'arte. La galleria ora ha installato degli schermi protettivi sugli altri dipinti e sulle opere in mostra nella galleria. Secondo l'azienda presso cui lavorava, la guardia di sicurezza sta pagando per il restauro a sue spese. Il Centro Eltsin ha rilasciato una dichiarazione riportata dak Daily Mail: “Vi informiamo che durante le indagini è stata identificata la persona che ha dipinto gli occhi sulle figure nel dipinto di Anna Leporskaya: si tratta di un dipendente di un'organizzazione di sicurezza privata che svolge attività di sicurezza del Centro Eltsin. […] Il danno è stato fatto con una penna a sfera”. Vuoi ascoltare tutti i dementi del giorno? Li trovi tutti in podcast anche su Spotify:

La polizia ha ora aperto un'indagine per vandalismo, con una multa di £ 395 (479mila euro circa) e una condanna al lavoro correttivo di un anno. Il dipinto ora è in fase di restauro, il danno, secondo l'esperto di restauro presso la Galleria Statale Tretyakov, può essere eliminato senza alcun danno a lungo termine all'opera d'arte. La galleria ora ha installato degli schermi protettivi sugli altri dipinti e sulle opere in mostra nella galleria. Secondo l'azienda presso cui lavorava, la guardia di sicurezza sta pagando per il restauro a sue spese. Il Centro Eltsin ha rilasciato una dichiarazione riportata dak Daily Mail: “Vi informiamo che durante le indagini è stata identificata la persona che ha dipinto gli occhi sulle figure nel dipinto di Anna Leporskaya: si tratta di un dipendente di un'organizzazione di sicurezza privata che svolge attività di sicurezza del Centro Eltsin. […] Il danno è stato fatto con una penna a sfera”. Vuoi ascoltare tutti i dementi del giorno? Li trovi tutti in podcast anche su Spotify:
Interest in the events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 has only increased since the centenary of the Romanovs' assassination in 1918. Bryn Turnbull tackles this familiar story from the perspective of Emperor Nicholas's eldest daughter, Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna (1895–1918). The novel opens with a prediction, apparently made on the day of Olga's birth, that the infant grand duchess would “not live to see thirty.” From there it moves to 1907, when the young heir to the throne, Tsarevich Alexei, is on the brink of death due to uncontrolled bleeding, the result of his hereditary hemophilia. Enter Grigori Rasputin, who enacts a miracle cure, saving the boy's life and earning himself the undying gratitude of the desperate empress. With this central conflict established—including the secrecy maintained around the nature of Alexei's illness for as long as he remained heir to the throne—we shift forward in time to Nicholas II's abdication in March 1917. The two stories of the revolution and the years that preceded it intertwine, with accounts of Olga at parties or nursing during World War I interspersed between chapters detailing the increasing confinement of the family after the revolution, from the Alexander Palace in Petrograd to a house in Siberia, then their transfer to the mansion in Ekaterinburg where the assassination took place. Olga makes a compelling narrator, old enough to see what's going on and have opinions about it but young enough to enjoy life, whether that means flirting at her coming-out party, chatting with a handsome wounded army officer, or riding a sled down Snow Mountain, a structure built by her and her siblings at the interim house in Tobol'sk. She is intensely family-focused, devoted to Russia, and charmingly naive due to her sheltered upbringing. Indeed, if one thing comes through in this richly described and thoughtful novel, it is the love of Nicholas II, his wife, and his children for one another—even if their insistence on staying together dooms them all. Many factors, of course, lay behind the Russian Revolution, and The Last Grand Duchess (Mira, 2022) hints at poverty, disillusionment, the massive casualties of the Great War, and Bolshevik determination as well as Nicholas's limitations as a ruler, Alexandra's shortcomings, Rasputin's ambition, and the “ministerial leapfrog” to which those failings gave rise. But the strength of fiction lies in its ability to draw us into the minds and hearts of a small group of people, and in this case, that group is Olga and her immediate family. It's a journey well worth taking. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and three other novels.

Whitney, Artist Statement and Bio Thematically I am a narrative artist. Images are appropriated from either the Powwow interlaced with Hollywood or from the indigenous people of Turtle Island and filtered through my point of view to tell the tale of the coming of the Europeans, small pox, and the near annihilation of the people of this region. These historic and grand cultures were all but decimated in a few short years and those left standing were cheated of their traditions, religion,and freedoms. But, the ancient voices were not silenced and the drumbeats are strong again. The celebration of the Powwow is one public declaration of the strength and tenacity of the indigenous cultures of this continent. Hollywood finds a place in the images but as an interloper and with tongue-in-cheek humor. Both the Powwow and They Came mezzotints are born from research, developed with a lot of wishful thinking, and then filtered through a contemporary point of view. I am intrigued by societies rich in imbedded belief systems and texture of ritual. I am fascinated by the way groups, historically and contemporarily, structure the day upon ceremonies, beliefs, and rituals. I appropriate interesting images or concepts from these various cultural fabrics, add a bit of contemporary color, and weave it all into my idea of story telling. Although seemingly disparate, work created from childhood memories and from adult research spring from similar place. In both the images and my remembrances are appropriated and darkened with contemporary political meaning. The narrative is realized in the mezzotint processes and printed on Hahnemuhle copperplate paper. Whitney is professor emeritus who lives in her studio. Her mezzotints have traveled throughout North America and Europe; and to Australia, New Zealand, Serbia, Nicaragua, and Russia. Her work was given one of four international awards at the International Mezzotint Festival in Ekaterinburg, Russia in 2019.

Ехать нам надо было около 250 километров, что весьма реально проехать за один день автостопа.К счастью, нам не пришлось долго ждать, и остановилась одна женщина, которая жила в Миассе, и согласилась нас подвезти до туда, a это нам по пути. Я мало что помню про эту женщину, но она была того возраста, когда ты никогда не знаешь, как правильно обращаться: на “ты” или на “вы”. То есть слишком молодая, что бы быть моей мамой, но слишком взрослая, что бы быть моей сестрой. Однако она была очень милой и приятной, а это самое главное.После того, как она высадила нас на окраине города, мы быстро поймали другую машину.

This time gave Pearce a rare insight to the bureaucratic workings of the Russian government as he worked on the State Asset Privatization Program during the tumultuous years of the poet Soviet era initially and later as the youngest Market Head in the history of Nestle. The initial years in Russia were formative for Pearce and led him to giving up a legal career in Ireland to follow the expatriate path – a path he has to date not left.
In today's episode we return to the roots of the podcast and focus our attention on conservation issues directed towards the Russian Far East, and the waterways surrounding the Sea of Okhotsk. In this episode we will explore the salmonid populations of the area, Hucho taxmen in particular, and examine some successful major conservation initiatives. We are very fortunate today to be able to host Dr. Mikhail Skopets, a prominent Russian fisheries scientist and the godfather of fly fishing in Russia's Far East. Dr. Skopets was born in the Ural Mountain region in a town called Ekaterinburg, in the former USSR. From 1977 onwards he has been living in the Russian Far East, in the in the city of Khabarovsk on the shores of the Amur River. Dr. Skopets is an adventurous fisheries biologist with nearly 40 years' field experience in Russia. During his numerous expeditions he was able to find four new species, two of them belonging to new genus, including one new salmonid (a char) discovered in a meteor crater in Siberia. For Dr. Skopets catching a fish that is completely new, one that has never even been described by anyone, there simply is no better thrill. Many fly fisherman talk about the excitement of the catch, but for Dr. Skopets it is the discovery! From 1994 thru 2005 Dr Skopets worked with the Wild Salmon Center based in Oregon, USA. One of his most valuable contributions to conservation efforts over the years was his rapid scientific assessments of rivers in the Russian Far East, which laid the groundwork for future protected areas in the region. Since he left the Russian Academy of Sciences in 2007, Mikhail has been working independently as a scientist and expedition/fishing guide. He is also a photographer and writer, regularly contributing to publications such as Fly Fishing Magazine and is currently working on a new book: “Fly Fishing Russia. The Far East“. He continues to work with fly-fishermen, collaborate with sport-fishing clubs of the Russian Far East, and takes part in casting and fly-tying training programs.

We have an incredible guest for you today, a collaborator, friend and artist I admire: Nicole Kontolefa!! Nicole is a native New Yorker, Russian trained actor and applied theatre practitioner. Her theatre work has taken her from Moscow to Montreal to Ekaterinburg and even Moldova. She always lands back in NYC where she believes that the means of theatre production should be given to the people (thank you, Augusto Boal!) as a way to celebrate communities, share wisdom and imagine a brighter future. Nicole is a Graduate of The Moscow Art Theatre School, CUNY SPS Applied Theatre Masters Program, co-founder of Studio Six of The Moscow Art Theatre and The Journey Theatre Project. From the moment Nicole pretended to be a snake at five years old, she knew she was an actress. Her theatrical studies and pursuits took her from LaGuardia High School to the Stanislavski School in Cambridge, to being part of the first American studio at the Moscow Art Theatre, to performing all over the globe. In Part I of our conversation, you will learn: Difference between Russian/American systems and how the jungle gym of Russian structure provides freedom How Nicole co-created the theatre company Studio Six with her fellow MXAT classmates How Studio Six had 7 full-length productions but nowhere to host them in NYC The process of creating 3 plays in 1 month at the Artsland Festival in Cambridge How Studio Six worked with Vladimir Pankov's SounDrama Studio to create the sensational Gorod.ok on the border of Belarus for 6 weeks of intensive rehearsal work Why any material is used as creative inspiration (literature, sound, poetry, dance, music, etc…) in the Russian training system and repertory When there's a new play in the US, the audience comes to see the play: the author is the reason we gather. In Russia, one goes to see what the director did with the play that's been done 100 times How acting teachers in Russia are working actors, whereas in the US, most are not and that can be detrimental to a young acting student How performances stay in your body, even after long interludes And SO much more!! Nicole and I are so eager to hear what resonates with you so be sure to take a screenshot of this episode and tag @nickilefa and @serabanda in your Instagram stories to share your thoughts and takeaways!!
