Stable Arms
Open face-off with the West, US and NATO after the August war with Georgia was not a surprise for the Russian military and political leadership, and their response was quite prompt. Since 1st September “the most large-scaled complex strategic exercises during last 20 years” (an expression by the commander of the land forces Vladimir Boldyrev) have been going on, being named “Stability 2008”, which will be held in 4 stages and will last 74 days. According to President Dmitry Medvedev, the military exercise will involve 47,000 people, 134 bodies of troop’s management, and over 7,300 units of heavy materiel. “Stability 2008” is direct preparation of special services, state apparatus and army for possible large-scale nuke war with the US and NATO.

To Live Long And To Die Young
Old age is curable. Moreover, this is just “vestige of the past”, inherited by humans from the animals. This is how it is considered by the Academician Vladimir Skulachev, the director of research institute of physics-chemical biology at Moscow State University. A few years ago an ambitious project, titled “Skulachev’s ions”, was started there. The goal of the project is struggle with aging, and attempt of extension the lifetime.
