This weekend there was "Maslenitsa" party time. Thousands of people across Russia partied and fried big pan cakes, that as been said symbolize the Sun. Maybe we'll have some more
of this tomorrow, just a few shots from Vladivostok city, the Easternmost area of Russia on Pacific Ocean. Looks like they were having good times there.

Klavdievskaya factory is one of not many that produced Christmas-tree decorations in Soviet period. The factory was founded in 1949 in Klavdievo, near Kiev and first was specialized on laboratory glass products. In 50’s it started to profile in producing
Christmas-tree decorations. Almost all of the production is exported (about 96%) to Germany, Belgium, Holland, France, Great Britain, USA and etc. and only 4% stays in Ukraine. Let’s see how the process of making Christmas-tree decoration looks like.
Another holiday took place last week in Russia, this time it was "a day of the frontier guard". Many ex-frontier guards
celebrated it. The traditions of celebration are much alike with "Graduation Day", same fountain bathing rituals etc.
In our recent publications we told about how Russia celebrates the day of Russian airborne troops, called "VDV day", when some of drunk paratroopers swim in the fountains and sometimes can even beat people. So happened in Lipetsk city, when the big group of celebratings came to the central market. Thought they didn't discover any
Azerbaijan owners of the counters, they started to smash up all the watermelons. Following this incident, the victims became Russian saleswomen, which now have to pay large compensation for the spoilt goods. And what's about the police, they simply didn't prevent the lawbreakers from the rampage.
