In the second half of August Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association traditionally celebrates its birthday - this year it is 85 years old. Plus to this date the plant workers tried and started production of the hundredth Su-34. I offer you to watch my photo report from this event.

Let's start with the factory’s museum. Last year I visited this factory, but then failed to get into the museum.

Banya (sauna) for Russians is like a cult. It is able to regenerate human again, to give strength for new exploits.
Don't go there after midnight
If you think that a banya is as an uninhabited island, you are mistaken. For centuries there lives so-called Bannik - a banya master. This creature likes when everyone please him in every way: leave a bar of soap, for example, or water in a pitcher - Bannik also wants to wash. He prefers steaming strongly after midnight. If you also have such a "wonderful" idea, beware - Bannik will crush you. Simply to say, it will intoxicate your desperate little head.

Woman, step aside!
Even in banya there was discrimination of women, and all because they were considered to be unclean for centuries. Even to a church they were not always allowed to enter, what is there to say about the bath. It was believed that if a woman goes to the bath first, then all that she washed away, her sins and disease will pass to someone who will bathe afterwards. Therefore, the first, of course, "holy" men went to wash, and only then their "impure" wives.
Don't go the third one
In addition that Bannik prefers to steam after midnight, he still loves his third turn in the so-called "third steam". Note: Bannik will not forgive if you try to disrupt the order and enter the bath in the third set. Bannik's action will be gentle and awing: he either will pour boiling water on you so that the skin will descend, or simply choke. Purity is, of course, the guarantee of health, but if you really do not have time, you'd better go to bed, dirty but at least unscathed.

Zehnovo village is one of the most ancient settlements of kenozerskih and its history begins in the 16th century, when, according to one legend, the first inhabitant named Zeh settled here. Presumably, it was someone from the first Christians arrived at Kenozero during the existence of the Kenoreckyi waterway that connected Lake Onega with river Onega using which Orthodox people from Novgorod came to these lands.

Today in Zehnovo there are six residential courtyards, while by today's standards, the village is considered to be the largest Zaozernoe settlement. There are not many remaining residents. No schools, no shops, nothing. Only alcohol and patriotic flags.
The main attraction of the village is the chapel of St. John the Evangelist. Then we head in the direction of the forest on the road to the village Spicyno.

This object is widely known in various military forces. Its building started in 1953. It was built to shelter and repair 7 diesel-electric submarines of 613 and 633 projects. This building gave a protection from direct exposure of the atomic bomb with capacity of 100 kilotons.
Now there is a museum.

In 1980 not only "Buran" was being built in the Soviet Union but there was also a perestroika, and they also tried to anticipate future consumer paradise, which was especially incredible in terms of shortages, there was even no toilet paper. And yet at that time, Soviet scientists were able to predict the appearance of smart watch, smartphones, laptops, and wireless home electronics. Moreover, all this is supposed to be in a single system, organizing a smart house.

Union began to ruin, but numerous institutes, bureau and other departments with a marvelous abbreviations still worked and sometimes gave fresh innovative ideas. All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Technical Aesthetics (ASRITA), for example, to devise a system that resembles the concept of smart home, that now only gains popularity.
The institute identified the main drawback of the system of home appliances such as a TV, tape recorder, video recorder, computer, printer and speakers that existed at that time. Actually, there was no system, and that was the main drawback. In fact, many devices repeatedly duplicated the functionality of each other with no cooperation and not combining with each other.
The idea of ASRITA employees was to abandon TVs, tape recorders, computers, and other devices as a self-contained devices replacing them with functional blocks that are combined into a system. This is how the scientists said: "The central processing unit receives information from the outside (over the air, cable networks, optical fibers, telephone networks, etc...) or from its own storage devices. The technique of the near future will keep different combination of existing media from phonograph records to slides. The next step is to make a universal medium on which different digital data will be stored - music, videos, slides, educational and game programs, texts ... The transition to universal media of a small size will lead to a genuine revolution in the design of home electronics. "
As scientists planned the information that processor received can be distributed through the screens, speakers, and other units. To arrange these blocks around the house ( processor delivers film on the screen in one room, a video game in other, in the office it turns on a computer with work tasks, and in the kitchen - an audiobook), they proposed to lay wires in Soviet citizens flats. In fact, they talked about universal cables in the walls, which could, at first, connect the electronics, and secondly, manage it through the processor.
It's funny that even then, 30 years ago, elements of wearable electronics were well described, "There may be the most unexpected solutions: for example, sunglasses, that turn into a display showing the time and other relevant information (heart rate or body temperature). "

Hi everyone. On May holidays I visited the suburbs of Efremov rpwnd the city. Perhaps I'll start with airdfield. There is a secret airport Efremov-3 that is called the "object". I think that Captain Obviousness, who worked here, gave it this name.

Now I offer you to get acquainted with another demilitarized armored vehicle BRDM-2, which was bought from the Ministry of Defence of Belarus and brought to Russia. In order to use a former military vehicle for civilian purposes we had to work hard, but it was worth it, because the final version is really impressive.

Author’s words:
Part of the work was performed by the owner; other part was given to contractors. The most difficult work was related to the tuning of the body. For example, the roof was cut, superstructure which increased the volume of the cabin was mounted. The windows were cut through a roof hatch was made. Well, the interior and the installation of additional equipment, as you know, was done by my friends. We did it all within a moderate budget - and there was no purpose to make a limousine with leather interior.
The car looks like a normal BRDM-2, but with the superstructure and the wheels from the BTR-80.
Two hatches are made for access, respectively, to the brake fluid reservoir and to the winch. Slab in the bottom is a controlled hydraulic rake.
Extensive exterior mirrors - is a drop in the sea. Therefore, there were set three wide-angle cameras with IR illumination which displays are placed on the dashboard. It took hour and a half and five proprietary drills to make a small hole for the rear camera.
Armor is strong!
That's how the interior looked when the car came to the shop.

A homepage of the Moscow International Automobile Salon stipulates that it's The most long-awaited and spectacular event for manufacturers, professionals and fans of the cars. Well, let's check!
Within the first day of the motor show, there were held a several presentations of new cars, in particular, LADA, Hyundai, Geely, DFM, Changan, the Larte Design and Ravon.
In comparison with the previous auto shows, this year, under the impact of the crisis on Russian market, the amount of panelists declined markedly, almost a third of the area was occupied by the Museum of retro technology and advertising.
If two years ago for the motor show there was allocated about eight halls in two huge pavilions, now all people wishing to take part in the exhibition fit only in three rooms located next door. Despite the fact that one of them was fully occupied by Mercedes.

The manufacturer of passenger cars "AvtoVAZ" presented six new models, including a brand new lime green Lada X-Code.
