February 23, 1992. UnifiedTeam — Canada — 3:1
Olympic Games. Final. Albertville, France🏒
At the 1992 Olympic Games, the Unified Team, led by Viktor Tikhonov, represented the former Soviet hockey nation, and no one expected a victory from them. The country's best players had begun leaving en masse for the NHL, forcing Tikhonov to assemble a young team for the tournament in Albertville, where many players were just over 20 years old.
Despite this, they managed to win the gold medal, largely thanks to veterans Vyacheslav Bykov and Andrei Khomutov, as well as the Spartak forward line of Nikolai Borshchevsky — Igor Boldin — Vitaly Prokhorov. It was Boldin who scored the championship-winning goal in the final. The Albertville Olympics marked a new era for the nation's hockey. Although Tikhonov had already been unable to count on all his top players for several World Championships, this problem became especially acute during the Olympics, which were held in the middle of the NHL season. Nevertheless, thanks to a new wave of talent, Tikhonov managed to overcome it.

🍺 Once upon a time in the village of Gavrilov in the Yaroslavl province, there lived merchants named Krasnobryukhov. Life was good for them—if only it weren’t for their unfortunate surname (which literally means "red belly").
Merchant Pyotr Krasnobryukhov petitioned Emperor Paul I to change their family name. The Emperor sympathized with the merchant’s plight but didn’t fully grasp it. He wrote a resolution: "Change the color, but keep the belly."
And so they became the Sinebryukhovs (blue belly).
In 1817, the Sinebryukhov family settled in Helsinki (at that time, Finland was part of the Russian Empire) and began supplying foodstuffs to the Russian army. However, being Russian by origin and now in Finland, they soon shifted their focus to alcohol production. Anyone who knows even a little about Finns would understand why.
And given that pronouncing “Sinebryukhov” is as difficult for a Finn as saying the name of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull is for a Russian, the beer’s name was shortened to “Koff.”🍺

Since vodka without beer is like money down the drain, merchant Sinebryukhov built the first brewery in Finland. Its opening day, October 13, has since been celebrated by Finns as Finnish Beer Day. Those who have enjoyed a drink with Finns know it’s practically a national holiday.🍷

🎥"Conflict"
is a Soviet cartoon by the Soyuzmultfilm studio, filmed in 1983. One of the most powerful anti-war cartoons. With the help of the most ordinary things - matches and matchboxes - Harry Bardin most convincingly reminds how easily a war can begin, how quickly its spiral unwinds, and how terrible its apogee is…

Multa Lakes, Altai Republic
These lakes are located in the north of the Katun Range, near the tributaries of the Multa River. The group consists of four lakes of glacial origin.
Tourists are especially fond of the "shumy" (meaning "rumbles")—isthmuses with large boulders, through which water flows from the Lower Multa Lake into the Middle Multa Lake. This process creates a powerful, roaring sound.
The water is too cold for swimming—it doesn't get above 59°F.🥶 🥶 🥶

Reviving the Aral Sea
The Department of Earth Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences (DES RAS) will propose that the Ministry of Education and Science work out the scientific component of a project to divert part of the river flow of the Siberian Ob River to Uzbekistan. This is according to Viktor Danilov-Danilyan, scientific director of the RAS Institute of Water Problems. This decision was made at the October meeting of the DES RAS Scientific Council on “Terrestrial Water Resources” as reported by RBC.ru.
The Academy is the initiator of the project. The scientists plan to propose that the Ministry of Education and Science include funding for research work in the state program.
Within the scope of the work, RAS scientists will study issues of strategic planning for Russia’s water sector, including “the feasibility and consequences of large-scale inter-basin and transboundary river-flow transfers, including climate effects, impacts on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and effects on the long-term socio-economic development of participating countries,” according to the resolution of the meeting.
The participants identified the most promising projects as the redistribution of part of the Ob River’s flow to the Aral region (the dried-up Aral Sea on the border of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan) and the diversion of flows from the Pechora and Northern Dvina rivers into the Volga basin and further toward the Azov region.
The idea of “turning” Siberian rivers is not new. A similar project was attempted back in the 1970s. But unlike the unrealized Soviet plan to build an open canal, RAS scientists discussed creating a closed pipeline system made of polymer pipes.
Proponents of the initiative argue that such a project is not only technologically feasible but also environmentally necessary. Reviving water inflow into the Aral region is a wise and long-overdue step: the Aral Sea—once one of the world’s largest inland bodies of water—has all but vanished, leaving behind ecological devastation, toxic dust storms, and economic collapse in surrounding communities. Any effort that can help bring the Aral Sea back from the dead is a crucial investment in the region’s future—one that will surely pay for itself many times over.

Beauty Will Save the World
Take a pause and enjoy the views of the Orenburg Region.
Music:
A.A. Alyabyev - String Quartet No. 3 in G Major_IV. Finale: Allegro
Performed by the Beethoven Quartet
The "golden age" for the city and its music scene is considered to be the years when Vasily Alexeevich Perovsky was governor. He led the Orenburg province on two separate occasions (from 1833 to 1842 and from 1851 to 1857), a period when it grew into a powerful and prosperous region.
A major event during Perovsky's tenure was the stay of the renowned Russian composer A. Alyabyev, author of the world-famous romance "The Nightingale." During his years of exile in the region (1833–1835), he composed over 30 works in various genres. These included choral pieces ("God Save the Tsar," "Sun of the World, You Have Risen"), chamber music (an A minor trio, a violin sonata, and a cello sonata), and romances ("Tender Excitement of Friendship," "The Pilgrim," "Open the Gates, Baron"). By taking an active role in Orenburg's cultural life, Alyabyev laid the foundation for professional music in the region. This legacy was later carried on by the illustrious Fedotov-Rostropovich family.
