    Not always. They just reported that the guy who was bitten by the bear was on the mend. He went to the forest near Moscow to look for moose horns and did not share something with the bear. I heard about a guy who was in such a situation, and then he got the nickname "Nikolai tasteless" from...

    Wiki "By origin, the Cajuns are one of the groups of French Canadians, or rather Acadians, deported by the British from Acadia in 1755-1763[6]. The very word cadjin (in English spelling — cajun) is a distorted French-Creole from Cadien. Acadien (acc. "Acadian")".

    Exactly. In the USA, there is the state of Georgia and the city of Odessa, and we more or less know this (I checked with my wife - she knows). And, indeed, the eccentric ex-president of the local Georgia staged performances in Odessa, Ukraine, where for some reason he was the governor. In my...

    One day, I was sitting in the lobby of a hotel with my friends, and I saw a news story "the former president of Georgia is running across the rooftops in Odessa, fleeing arrest" (a real episode). There is such a character there, now he is in prison in Tbilisi. A friend says, "It's kind of...

    We had a Georgian teacher. The Georgian accent can't be fixed, I don't know why. In the formulas of electromagnetism, the letter "mju" (μ) denotes the magnetic constant. The teacher called him "mu" (to our ears, this is the main sound of a cow). I remember it well.

    Huh, that's funny. The trade in American cars with Russia has been banned for many years, however, there are a couple of new Dodges parked right next to my block-of-flat, among other things. There are fans of the "rams", despite the considerable headache with their purchase and maintenance.

    This story clearly shows that Biden and his team were deeply indifferent to everything except their "brilliant" ideas. By the way, we had a case - the "forgotten cosmonaut" Krikalev flew in 1991, and returned only in 1992, when the USSR was gone, for 311 days.

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    It's not a very well-known brand, but it turned out to be extremely successful, survived a couple of accidents with shattered glass, etc., and the watchmakers praised the mechanism. At one time, watches cost significantly less than 1,000, and now they are on the secondary market and less than 100.

    Japan is actually long (>3,000 km) - almost as wide as Australia from west to east (4,000 km). And Europe is not like that either - it is actually bigger, but Turkey participates in it only in a small piece.

    Apart from RWS, no one makes these brasses. They used to be made in Russia, but they were not exported, and for some reason they are not being made now. And they're under Berdan. A friend of mine in the USA made them himself from magnum-caliber, preferably 338 Win Mag. It is necessary to expand...

    These are the soldiers of the 339th regiment in my native village, in 1918. It is not far from Plesetsk, where the cosmodrome is now. There was a school in the big house upstairs, where my mother later became a teacher. At that time, Western countries deployed about 300,000 troops to our...

Anything that is not verified by experiment is unscientific or not entirely scientific. This is how modern science differs from ancient...
