On Russia Day in Moscow Peace Road Initiative 14-Day Super-Marathon Begins On Russia Day in Moscow Peace Road Initiative 14-Day Super-Marathon begins Marya Nazarova June 12, 2016 Moscow, Russia—On the national holiday known as Russia Day, the Peace Road initiative was observed with the start of a 14-day super-marathon. On June 12, 2016, a group of 45 long-distance runners—15 adults and 30 children—met outside the walls of the Kremlin at the spot called Kilometer Zero (the center of Moscow) for a rally before the start of the marathon. Within 14 days, the runners were scheduled to cover a distance of more than 1,100 kilometers (more than 683 miles). The marathon route followed the roads of eight states of the Russian Federation. Starting from the center of Moscow, the runners proceeded to the towns or cities of Sergiyev Posad, Kalyazin, Uglich, Myshkin, Rybinsk, Tutayev, Yaroslavl, Kostroma, Furmanov, Shuya, Palekh, Chkalovsk, Gorodets, Nizhny Novgorod, Suzdal, Noginsk, and Elektrostal before returning to Moscow (Poklonnaya Gora). The team members came from Moscow and the Moscow region, the regions of Bryansk, Ivanovo, Yaroslavl and Nizhny Novgorod, and even the Republic of Belarus. Dmitry Samko, secretary general of UPF-Moscow, also joined the team, ready to overcome all the hardships along this difficult path. The marathon was organized by UPF-Russia together with "I Choose Sport!," a group that regularly runs super-marathons to aid charitable organizations. In addition to this project, UPF-Russia’s Peace Road campaign included a number of other events this year. At the rally to start the marathon, Konstantin Krylov, regional secretary general of UPF of Eurasia, handed the Peace Road flag to Sergey Suprunyuk, director of "I Choose Sport!" Mr. Krylov congratulated the participants on the start of the marathon. He emphasized that the essence of the Peace Road initiative is abolishing boundaries so that humankind can live as one global family. UPF-Russia would like to thank the participants of the marathon and to wish success to all the activities of the Peace Road project in Russia this year! .

    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief 10 July 2013 RUSSIA: Orthodox relics block Jehovah's Witness meeting By Geraldine Fagan, Forum 18 News Service A written Russian official refusal to allow Jehovah's Witness to meet for worship in Nizhny Novgorod Region, made in consultation with a local Orthodox bishop, provides rare evidence that state opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses is fuelled by support for the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate), Forum 18 News Service has found. "As the administration, we conduct all our activity in close contact with the [Moscow Patriarchate] Diocese," the official who drafted the refusal, Svetlana Zakharova, confirmed to Forum 18. "There's not a single question affecting the interests of one side or the other that we don't decide collegially." It is highly unusual for Russian officials to make such admissions, especially in writing, Forum 18 notes. Elsewhere, more Jehovah's Witness texts have been banned, and raids on and detentions and fines of Jehovah's Witnesses and Falun Gong practitioners continue. The government is also set to increase punishments for "extremist" activity under the Criminal Code. A written Russian official refusal to allow Jehovah's Witness to meet for worship in Nizhny Novgorod Region, made in consultation with a local Orthodox bishop, provides rare evidence that state opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses is fuelled by support for the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate), Forum 18 News Service has found.

  • Priority Directions of Tourism Development in the Region (On the Example of the Ivanovo Region)
    Kireeva M.M., Smirnova A.N. Ivanovo branch of the RGU named after G.V. Plekhanova, Russia Priority directions of tourism development in the region (on the example of the Ivanovo region) Development of tourism in regions and the cities of Russia has gained univer- sal mass character. Both municipal authorities and governing bodies, higher educa- tion institutions, various areas experts - historians, philosophers, culturologists, mar- keting specialists, economists, managers, as well as public organizations and associa- tions, businessmen and locals are engaged and involved in tourism programs devel- opment both state, and regional. However many regions lag behind on indicators of an entrance tourist stream. There are a lot of reasons for that: insufficient financing of the tourism sphere and development level of public and private partnership, bad in- frastructure, lack of serious projects on tourism and initiatives of their development and qualified personnel of the tourism sphere and its management. In such situation regions are forced to attract tourists with unusual, interesting, unique tours. This arti- cle shows what kinds of tourism are actual for Ivanovo region. There are some actually factors which attract tourists to any region. The first is availability of natural and climatic conditions, sea, mountains, forests, lakes and an opportunity to breath the fresh air, to swim, to have a sun baths and so on. There are no such excellent conditions in Ivanovo region. The second is that tourists are attract- ed by historical and cultural heritage – ancient temples and monasteries, perfectly remained Kremlin walls, cathedrals, churches and other monuments of architecture, history and culture.

  • An Essay in Universal History
    AN ESSAY IN UNIVERSAL HISTORY From an Orthodox Christian Point of View VOLUME IV: THE AGE OF EMPIRE (1861-1914) PART 1: from 1861 to 1894 Vladimir Moss © Copyright: Vladimir Moss, 2018. All Rights Reserved 1 The pope is not only the representative of Jesus Christ, but he is Jesus Christ Himself, hidden under the veil of the flesh. The future Pope Pius X (1895). When I consent to be a Republican, I do evil, knowing that's what I do... I say Long live Revolution! As I would say Long live Destruction! Long live Expiation! Long live Punishment! Long live Death! Charles Baudelaire (1866). European politics in the nineteenth century fed on the French Revolution. No idea, no dream, no fear, no conflict appeared which had not been worked through in that fateful decade: democracy and socialism, reaction, dictatorship, nationalism, imperialism, pacifism. Golo Mann, The History of Germany since 1789 (1996). The Messianism of the new era must arise and develop; the Jerusalem of the New World Order, which is established in holiness between the East and Asia, must occupy the place of two forces: the kings and the popes... Nationality must disappear. Religion must cease to exist. Only Israel will not cease to exist, since this little people is chosen by God. Albert Crémieux (1861). The Lord and Master of the money markets of the world, and of course virtually Lord and Master of everything else. He literally held the revenues of Southern Italy in pawn, and Monarchs and Ministers of all countries courted his advice and were guided by his suggestions.
