Can't say for a fact that that is true or not. As far as hockey players go, some are good some are only so so. I see two goalies in the SCF's right now that are from the US and Canada that are putting on quite a show. Can't say that there are any Russian goalies that even compare to these two guys.<quoted text>
Unfortunately for the Russians, they did stand up and vote Putin out but he put himself back in, not sure how they could change the voting process, other than inviting Nato to supervise the booths and counting, that choice belongs to the Russians, we just want Russians to have their vote respected.
But Russians do grow great hockey players so some of them are my heros, lol

Their government and Putin in particular make more money by accepting bribes from other countries. If left alone that would mean the government of russia would have to spend money locally to create employment, stimulate manufacturing and not line their own pockets. If you go outside Russia how often do you see the label made in Russia? almost never and that should tell you something. |

I am not blaming - I just say opening of Russian markets for US companies is great harm for Russia - that is what I am saying and it would be the same if there were no corruption at all here - it is bad both ways - it was in responce to a canadian idiot who funnily thought that by comming to our markets US is making great pleasure for us - NOT, it is indeed a lot of profir for US, but it is only harm for Russian people and russian industry and Russian businessmen. End of story. |

I agree with you, the Russian people should be producing product for use in Russia and for export. Russians must put their foot down and start insisting that the government start using money for start up and stimulation of business and not just for ammunition and weapons. Yes they have oil and gas but that is still not enough to feed the whole country and Putin cannot be that naive to think that. |
That depends really. If you are a weak government like some sort of third world banana republic the corporations will indeed rob you blind. If you are a strong enough government that you can dictate how they do business in your country... it is not the multi-nationals telling China what to do... things work more the other way around. So the question would be whether the bureaucrats in Moskva would let themselves be pushed around or whether they would control the rules under which foreign corporations operated. |

Depends on how greedy the politicians are there doesn't it? They are the ones giving out the contracts and lining their own pockets. Corporations whether they be from east, west, north or south, or home-grown are only playing the game that the government set up. It is sad but true. The ones who lose in the end are the Russian people themselves. |

who cares? once again, you need to keep your mind and your options open in order to get the most out of the day. If you succeed in doing this, you'll have a whale of a time and will hit it off with everyone you meet. It's a super day for putting lots of energy into your social life, and you could have a really entertaining and laughter-filled encounter with someone whose wit keeps you in stitches. |

why is that? someone is thinking big but they could easily allow their ideas to get out of proportion so they end up talking about things that are entirely out of the question, or too ambitious. Yet, you shouldn't discount everything they say, because there are some great ideas if you can only work out what to do with them. |

I think it does indeed. You're very fond of you-know-who but you can't help wondering what on earth they're talking about today. They're full of bright ideas and high hopes, but most of these seem to have more to do with wishful thinking than reality, as far as you're concerned. Even so, beware of pouring cold water over all their schemes because you never know, they could be on to a winner with some of them. |

You could be right, but the atmosphere is heated between you and a loved one, or colleague today. You fall out when you fail to see eye to eye over a philosophical or moral argument, or there's a clash over working practices. Try not to let the situation escalate until it becomes more dramatic than it really is. Come on! Where's that great sense of Capricornian humor? See the funny side, and encourage the other person to have a good laugh about it as well. |

I must say this thread: http://www.topix.com/forum/world/russia/T7NS9... fills me with great pride. Don't forget that your work may require more travel, or advanced training in the year ahead, Cap. As Jupiter swings into Gemini, you may hire others to work for you and your relationships with co-workers and underlings are expanded in one way or another. Keep your sense of self-importance well in hand. You may acquire a pet or increase your activities involving a pet, or the breeding of small animals. |
You are talking total gibberish. A stream of words with no particular meaning.(-: |

The politicians will line their own pockets at the expense of big business everywhere. The question is whether they will also care about their own nation's interest or whether they will just give the foreign corporations free reign... and transfer their own funds into overseas bank accounts. It is about more than setting the rules... they also must enforce them. |
|
|
Unlikely that they will inforce them even-handedly. In politics money talks.

:-) You could be right. Broaden your intellectual horizons through higher education, advanced training, study or the use of foreign languages, or long distance travel. You may develop a desire to expand your spiritual awareness, political interests, and cultural appreciation. |

Gemini
A little give and take goes a long way, so try to be flexible and malleable when dealing with others. It will also pay to ask people what they think rather than to make sweeping assumptions on their behalf, because you could be in for a surprise. A child may have some interesting information for you, or they could make a statement that really sets you thinking.
