Mc Duck

Sometimes They Fall Down
In some Russian smaller cities there is a problem of old trees that sometimes fall down on cars or people just because they are old already, the inner part is soft and any of them can fall down any time. There is a solution to cut them down but it would turn the cities into a scary landscape without greens - there is no enough ready plants to replace the cut ones.
So from time to time in the news it can be heard that here or there tree falls on a car or a human, without wind or other external forces causing it to fall. Like on this pics for example in Petrozavodsk, Russia.

Wooden churches in Kizhi built without nails
The pogost of Kizhi (i.e. the Kizhi enclosure) is located on one of the many islands in Lake Onega, in Karelia. Two 18th-century wooden churches, and an octagonal clock tower, also in wood and built in 1862, can be seen there. These unusual constructions, in which carpenters created a bold visionary architecture, perpetuate an ancient model of parish space and are in harmony with the surrounding landscape.
Earlier it was called “subcapital Siberia”, a reference to this region of peaceful birds, blue lakes, bubbling rivers and innumerable islands overgrown with woods.
Petrozavodsk, the capital of Karelia, is located approximately 300 km from St. Petersburg on the most westerly bay of Lake Onega, the second biggest in Europe after Lake Ladoga.
