Land Advice From the Guru



Kyiv Mayor Leonid Chernovetsky: I’m giving the Government the following ideas, okay? The liquidation of all special organizations, from hospitals to clinics and the various…uh…huge land plots…uh…that they own will net Ukraine 10 billion dollars, okay? The liquidation of the system…uh…of the systems of the Academy of Sciences — for example, okay? — that exist only in China and Ukraine and also in Russia will also net…there’s a lot of property there as well.

Sounds like the voice of experience, doesn't it?

The expert accounting and the science behind it reminded me of my favorite Depeche Mode song, “
Everything Counts.”

Back to Barbaric Construction 2

One law for all? Not for these “little Ukrainians,” as Yushchenko calls his countrymen.

Another playground. Another prey.



But some people fight back.

Back to Barbaric Construction

TARGET: TREES, PLAYGROUND, SUNSHINE
OBJECTIVE: DESTROY

With the election honeymoon over, there comes a payback time for the buckwits who voted for a pack of buckwheat.

Unfortunately, other people will suffer, too, as they
stand up for their rights. Watch a scene of struggle at Berezniaky, a left-bank Kyiv neighborhood.



In a literal tug of war, local residents overpowered the construction workers who landed on their doorstep. Will they succeed next time?

Bratstvo “Fucks” Bush for Beer, Kosmos Scraps Anthrax House for Photo Opps

Bush’s arrival inspired Bratstvo activists to stage a “fuck” flash mob in which participants mosaicked their bodies on the sidewalk for a bottle of beer.

It was their way of saying hello to President Bush and the Pentagon.

Over the years, an eye-catching evolution has occurred in the political views of Dmytro Korchynsky, the leader of Bratstvo (Brotherhood) and a former member of UNSO. In the dawn of his career, Korchynsky had hogged the spotlight campaigning against the war in Chechnya.



Male participant: I feel that the earth beneath me is a little cold, but actually, in my life, I’ve experienced lying on the snow a few times, so basically I’m feeling some sort of excitement, that’s how I’d put it.

Female bystander, in an attempt to discipline the youths: Wallowing and swearing — is that what you call a protest?
Young man: Who’s swearing?
Female bystander: You had the stupidity to write obscenities in the capital of your motherland.

Reporter: Are you feeling a sense of satisfaction from telling “fuck” to bush?
Male participant: Yes. Although, of course, I miss the moment of not seeing, with my own eyes, him watching these photographs or something like that. But I think they’ll bring it to him.

Sure, it must have been the top item in Bush’s morning briefs as he woke up in his presidential suite at Hyatt Regency. Don’t miss yourself on Google Earth and don’t forget the beer, pal! With Bratstvo in the sandbox, America's satellite capability certainly runs the risk of being overloaded!

Anthrax house protesters got a powerful ally: early mayoral elections. Both Vice Premier Turchynov and Mayor Chernovetsky rushed to claim credit for convincing the “anthrax house” builders to quit.

Chernovetsky, who is now spinning the hell out of his “servant leadership” on municipal television, tried to claim more.



Kyiv Mayor Leonid “Kosmos” Chernovetsky: We've been accused of various machinations involving…uh…well, whatever, right? Let our opponents, let our opponents try to find a single place that either I or my team in Kyiv illegally used against you. But we do find such places. [Good point!] In this particular case, we’re at a site of construction that we won’t let proceed. At the first session [of the City Council], we will revoke this permit, which was issued by former mayor Omelchenko in 2003.

Chernovetsky’s security detail tries to prevent the activists from waving a “Fuck Kosmos, too!” banner.

Voice from the crowd: Chernovetsky’s bodyguards are beating people!

Activist: The thing is, the authorities, until we raised the roof here, did absolutely nothing. And now our beloved Mayor’s spin doctors brought him here to make a statement. Uh…we believe that it’s not right, that the Mayor should be acting in the legal dimension. And it’s lo…long overdue that he should have been acting in the legal dimension, because, to stop this construction because it is simply and apparently outrageous.

If vermicelli voters re-elect Kosmos, I won’t be surprised to see the “anthrax house” off to a brand new start, in a whole new galaxy of kosmic projects. Check out this cool site.

Another Monster to Dwarf Kyiv Landscape for $100 M Profit

Get a glimpse of yet another Godzilla with which local developers plan to decorate the picturesque hills overlooking the Dnipro, in place of a cathedral destroyed by the Bolsheviks. (See below.)



Adding to a similarly designed riverfront edifice built there a few years ago, the 18-storied upscale high-rise about to be erected will further degrade the architectural makeup of Kyiv. The project, which promises a profit of $100 million, has already kicked off, scrapping the local children’s playground.



The brainchild of the greedy developers will cast a permanent blight on nearby landmarks, including Askold’s Tomb, Kalynovy Hai (Holodomor Memorial Park), the Kruty Monument (the latter two founded by President Yushchenko), and the Orthodox shrine of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra.




At a time when the city prepares to celebrate the 1020th anniversary of Christianity’s introduction into Kyivan Rus, the hills from which Christianity spread throughout the eastern Slavic region will be bowing down to the God of Money for all the world to see. (Good morning, Mr. President!)


Apparently some home builders are relying on their hard-earned stacks of money and urban planners to build themselves a stairway to heaven.
