5. Russians, Too, May Get 'Cash for Clunkers' Rebates
September 25, 2009
Russians look at the newest cars at the Moscow auto showThe Russian government is planning to introduce its own "cash for clunkers" package, following the success of rebate programs in the U.S. and parts of western Europe. The hope is that a "rubles for wrecks" plan next year will revive the domestic auto industry and spur Russian new-car sales, now running at less than half last year's levels. At Russia's biggest annual auto show, in Moscow, car-makers are doing what they can to attract new customers. According to the Association of European Businesses, new-car sales in Russia dropped...

6. Russians Now In Charge of U.S. Defense Policy
September 20, 2009
The Obama administration just canceled plans for the placement of a missile defense system in Poland and the Czech Republic.
Why was this system canceled? It was canceled because the Russians didn't like it.
The system would have been useful in protecting the U.S. and our allies from the Iranians and the Russians. The Russians don?t feel that America deserves to be able to defend itself, and the Obama administration agrees.
The message to our former allies in central Europe was loud and clear: You are on your own against the Russians.

8. Are China's Cheap Traders Outstaying their Welcome in Russia?
September 06, 2009
The massive Cherkizovsky market in Moscow, home to some 60,000 mainland Chinese traders and with an estimated turnover of nearly a billion dollars a year has been forcibly closed by Russian authorities on the grounds of “improper hygiene and environmental standards.” The market has thrived since 1991, when the collapse of the Soviet Union coincided with China’s manufacturing surplus of cheap goods and while Russians were relatively cash-strapped and lacking light industrial and consumer goods.
To put the significance of the Cherkizovsky market into perspective, it accounted for 50 percent... (read more)

9. Wine Pairing Desi Match in India by Sourish Bhattacharya
August 19, 2009
THE WORLD OF wine lover is vertically spilt between those who see no marriage possible between Indian food and wine, and those who do. I belong to the second category, though I have had all kinds of chefs quibbling with me about the possibility of the proposition Indian food, they insist, goes best with cola, lassi and beer, so take your pick and keep the bottle of wine for a better occasion. I beg to disagree.
Russians have switched over to it with the zeal of new converts, Americans have junked cola for wine as their favoured meal time accompaniment, even South Africans have moved from... (read more)

17. Subliminal Messaging
June 02, 2009
Subliminal Messaging By Phil Bate PhD
Subliminal Messaging has gotten a somewhat “bad” name. During the “cold war” with the Russians, it was associated with “brainwashing” and torture. In the 60’s and 70’s, it became associated with “sneaky” advertising by Madison Avenue. The book by Marshall Mcluhan “The Medium is the Message”, was THE landmark that explained how and why subliminal messaging works.
Many people today still think that there are laws against using it in TV advertising, but they re wrong! It’s still being used to influence people in many subtle ways. And, it is, o... (read more)

In the last five years, a growing number of traditional holiday homes in Cote d’Azur have been taken by Russians, Chinese and Indian entrepreneurs with virtually limitless funds and a tendency for blatant show-off. Many of these newcomers have come to riches within the past ten years, and are much more boisterous and uninhibited, leaving a most unbecoming impression on the old inhabitants of Cote d.Azur.
The traditional European holiday home-owners have been leaving the coast in great numbers, taking huge amounts of money with them, and they are now on the lookout for more quiet and seclu... (read more)

22. Hungary: Exquisite Survivor
March 23, 2009
To bracket Hungary with East European countries is something of a misnomer. This is because the country, with its distorted crab-like appearance, is actually located in the center of Europe. Essentially tribals from the Ural region Hungarians are known to be hardy survivors having survived the ravages wrought by the Turks, Tartars, Russians, even the Nazis in World War II. One of the main centers of Renaissance, it is at Hungary that the first uprising took place against Stalinism.

The Russian Orthodox Church is in the process of selecting a new Patriarch for the first time since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

25. Majorca Jewel Loses Shine
September 29, 2008
Mallorca - often known as Majorca - has been the jewel in the crown of Spanish holidays in recent years - successfully attracting Europeans, especially from Germany and the UK, but also further afield in recent years as Americans, Canadians, Russians and Australians have discovered for themselves that a holiday in Majorca isn't just plenty of sunshine and good beaches.
