    To Russia, I guess ... Russian team has been banned because of doping. Russian athletes can compete as singles and without the Russian Federation.

    Because of this, they did not cease to be Russia ;) We already passed it in 1992

    Although, of course, this time the results will be much worse, because they have forbidden to come to the best athletes. It's sad that politics kills sports. But, no matter what prohibitions are imposed, the whole world knows so, what kind of athletes will be under the neutral flag :D

    This is normal and naturally. If you are weak, you will be beaten.

    It's an interesting note :)
    Why do you believe that? You know that my English is bad. In same manner I know, that your education is bad. I'd admit your education is as bad as my English is. Maybe even as my Italian is :)
    I really don't understand you write. There are temperature +887F on Venus. If you would have education like mine you'd understand that the flight to Venus is more difficult task then the flight to Mars. We did it, American could not.
    It's a fact. The very sad fact for me.
    ...and will win ISIS. You promised to do it too :)
    Lets we wait a result.

    I really don't know what democracy is. Everyone sees his own sense in this word. There was democracy in ancient Russia too. For making a decision they cried as much as it's possible. Winner had to cry louder than others :) Why couldn't we use this sort of democracy? Though it seems in parliaments they try to use it quite frequently :)
    I am a scientist therefore it seems I have to like the junta of scientists. But as a scientist I know that scientists cannot control a state. They even cannot control themselves. They are children with a big head only. Nobody knows what form of government is better. Democracy is popular because it is advertised by rich countries. But I am not sure that these countries is rich because of democracy. I see other reasons for it. Recall, Hitler built the very successful economy...

    I would like that you familiarize with some "new Russians":
    Roman Abramovich
    [​IMG]
    He killed the Director of the Omsk oil refinery. It was the greatest oil refinery in Russia. So Roman became an oligarch. He lives in the Great Britain.

    Boris Berezovsky.
    [​IMG]

    He killed a lot of people. So Boris became an oligarch. He lived n the Great Britain. It seems Berezovsky was agent of a British secret service. Berezovsky was killed by the British secret service when he wanted to resele himself to Putin.

    Mikhail Khodorkovsky
    [​IMG]

    He killed people as a present for his birthday. Including the mayor of Nefteyugansk. So Mikhail became an oligarch. He lives in the Great Britain.

    All sportsmen use doping. Especially Americans. They can do it but Russian cannot.

    Great Britain welcomes your political exiles, just as we once welcomed Lenin and Stalin.
    Bring money. We love money.

    I think not. No self respecting Essex man would allow his pants to stay up on a Friday night...

    Well, doping or not doping, US haven't qualified for next World Cup in Russia [like Italy, unfortunately:(].

    Russia has organized Winter Olympics and next summer there will be the World Cup [of soccer]. I guess someone in US envies Russia.

    I think that most people realize that the US instigates boycotting for the express purpose of giving themselves a chance to win some gold. Americans are afraid of Russia. Now they succeeded in keeping Russia out of the winter games and back before they convinced some countries to boycott the Olympics in Russia because Russia invaded Afghanistan. Russians are afraid of no one. They didn't boycott the Americans because they too invaded Afghanistan nor because they invaded Irak, nor because they invaded, Syria. Russia knows it can beat the crap out of the Americans in sports .... so they don't give a **** about boycotting. "Play!"

    I think they have no choice. Russia is most strong the USA enemy. They need to destroy us. Or they will being destroyed by themselves. And it is doing already (they destroy themselves).

    If to be honest, I typed "drunk Brits" in Google for looking for that picture. I could type "drunk Russians" but results would be not for educated foreigners. We are wild country and our entertainment are wild ones too. (I mean too wild ) :)

    Russia is a enemy to the Hillary lemmings. Many others think at worse we are adversaries. The west will be in decline as long as progressives manage to continue the destruction of our culture. The most powerful nations fall from within first.

    A democracy of tears? Mmmm. A Tearocracy perhaps - where the winner will always be a talented actor, a "luvvy" - making it a luvvyocracy.

    Can't be worse than what we've got a present I suppose, which is a democracy of liars, where the biggest perverter of truth wins.

    Scientists like academics would rather tear each other to pieces, I think. As you say they very often have enormous ego's and not a little bitchiness to go with it.

    Rich countries get rich by plundering others. As you say Hitler had the German industrialists supporting him and America, Britain and France financing his build-up of military might and know-how. Both you and I both know who the ultimate target of his "guided" ambition was meant to be --- and eventually was.

    Yes, I know of them all very well. I have always regarded them as fully paid up affiliate members of the Vorovsky Mir - although none have the ritual tattoos normal to the Mir. I think Israel also has it's very own Mir encampment too.

    Money always talks while honesty always walks, eh.

    Problems of ambiguous translation :) Crying — it means not tearing loudly, but shouting loudly :)

    If you want to talk about drunk... Many years ago I spent a Friday night in Oslo. Quite a remarkable event.

    It seems to me that we Northerners do have a love affair with intoxication. My guess would be that it's to do with long, dark, freezing cold nights.

    Southern Europeans, Italians, French, Spanish, Portuguese have a more sensible approach.

    If it's shouting you mean, then try watching a television broadcast of the British Prime MInister's Question Time in Parliament... :)

    It's hard for me to judge the influence of the length of the day. In the end, in sunny Italy drink too much :) But in cold weather it is more pleasant to warm yourself with strong alcohol :D



    Heck! This is not Russia, this is Norway! But the difference is very small :D
