    Assorted Russia, Part 21

    18
    Posted on July 30, 2011 by kulichik


    Below is another collection of pictures devoted to different issues and united under the same heading. Enjoy!






    The ‘too smart’ guy got a bazooka in order to shoot at the train with bricks. He was very proud of his behavior and even posted the pictures on his blog. What he didn’t take into account was the fact that this was a passenger train and a hundreds of people could suffer if his aim was very good.

    It happens that you neighbors go away for a long time while you have to face the leakage. Well, a stretched ceiling can be a good way out as it can cope with all the water. The question is: How Long?

    Some objects either man-made or natural may look quite unexpected from above, you know… The  hydroelectric pumped storage power plant in Kiev.

      A. Bunka here. What island is that where Gorby keeps his money? The film at the end, very funny, reminds me of the silent era…

      I use to have something like that analog calculator when I was a child. I loved that thing and then one day it disappeared. I believe it was red and gold colored metal and the stylus had a two prong holder for it on the side.

      Arithmometer? Great device, one of my friends discovered similar one somewhere in his grandfather’s house. Great piece of engineering work. Visit also this webpage: http://www.taswegian.com/MOSCOW/soviet.html – museum of Soviet calculators, especially the “Mechanical Monster” section :)

      Not as exciting compare to people who lay on the train track with train running over them.

      We owe Leonardo of Pisa and his “Liber Abaci” (1202) for bringing math “to the masses.”

      “First” mechanical calculator? Umm, I think the Chinese actually invented one a few thousand years ago- the abacus!

        Sorry but I dont see any mechanics if I look at my abacus. And the abacus isnt a chinese invention, if you mean by chinese the normal han chinese. Although the inventation place is near to china.

      These railway tickets with all the useless numbers and codes are not the worst thing in Ukrainian railways. The worst thing is that if you are not a russian speaker, it’s virtual impossible to get such a ticket because NOBODY knows any foreign language and nobody has desire to help you. Also, you need to show you passport in order to buy a ticket (probably a remain from soviet rules) which they won’t easily accept because they can’t read your name in latin letters. From own experience.
