Russian rocket deliveries to Iran started Putin isn't stupid, so why in the hell would he allow air defence rocket systems to be shipped to a country that is lining all their ducks up in a row to start the apocalypse? Because that is what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is doing. Getting ready to start...

Maybe this is an old onem, but I find it hilarious: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=827877829185720919&q=martial+art But seriously. This can not be for real, can it? Please tell me it's an elaborate joke...

SuitSat is a spare surplus Russian space suit outfitted with a radio transmitter that will be shoved out the back door of the ISS sometime Friday Feb 3. Anyone with a police scanner will be able to hear it as it goes overhead! Download the text file...

I remember visiting an exhibition of his in late 80s. His paintings had been recently discovered in Russia and were touring the world at the time. His works were mostly from the post-revolution period, maybe 1920s. I recall several paintings of huge imaginary factory machines. Also I remember a...

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere, but, the Russian sub is free.

This is might be old news, and I apologize if it is, but I just saw the article today. NASA plans to attempt to destroy a comet on July 4 this year. (Just to find out if they can.) Russian "astrologist" (is that the same as astrologer?) Marina Bai has filed a lawsuit because, in her words...

Hi this is my first post to the list so I do hope I've posted this in the appropriate section. Mr Randi has already commented on the Russian child who has "X Ray Vision" and today she seems to have re-surfaced in the news: http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_1370018.html?menu=news.quirkies

The UK Daily Express newspaper is carrying a story of a Russian who has demonstrated telekinesis (sounds familiar) at the Moscow Institute of Physics. 36 yr old Vadim Kuzmenko was tested at the above facility, Professor Yuri Popov says "My colleagues and I do not have any doubts that he has...

Rape and Russian Policy in Chechnya The case of Elsa Kungaeva is now quite well known. This is not because there was anything unusual in a Chechen woman being raped and murdered by a member of the Russian armed forces - a fairly commonplace, quotidian sort of event. What was unusual was that...

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040409/ap_on_sc/russia_mars_2 Sounds a little fishy to me. $3.5b is way below NASA's estimate of $20b (IIRC) and I doubt that existing spacecraft have the ability to make a return trip. Though, it would be very exciting if it's true. :D I'll...

I haven't been to this site for a while. Has Randi commented? And what's everyone's opinions?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2004030583,00.html Here is an article from that bastion of quality reporting, The Sun. Looks like she is in line for $1 million , no comrade?

Anyone seen this? http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_855907.html?menu=news.quirkies "Russian scientists have been unable to disprove a teenage girl who claims she has x-ray vision and can see inside human bodies. Doctors at Saransk's children hospital carried out exhaustive tests on...

SAN FRANCISCO, California (AP) -- A publicity-shy Russian researcher who labors in near-seclusion may have solved one of mathematics' oldest and most abstruse problems, the Poincare Conjecture. Evidence has been mounting since November 2002 that Grigori "Grisha" Perelman has cracked the...

I saw this the other day and meant to post it. It's a sad return to the bad old days, IMO. Russia Shutters Last Independent TV Station :( Graham

Victor Danilchenko, are you Russian? When I saw your avatar today, it hit me how Russian you look and I started cracking up and laughed for a long time. You're the most ridiculously Russian looking dude I have ever seen.

Tonight on SciFi for those that saw it, the station aired a Roger Moore hosted feature called "Secret KGB UFO Files." This seemed a bit dated so I guess some may've seen it before. While there were some interesting aerial footage of MIGS encountering objects in the sky, the purported alien...
