Are you ready for international business?

Several days ago I saw a very interesting business card. The translation was so awful that I can't miss the chance to share it with others. I already tried to call the owner — but Holidays no one took the phone.
This is it:

Feeling Good

«Feeling Good” is a song written for the 1965 musical ”The Roar of the Greasepaint – The Smell of the Crowd” (about the gap between the upper and lower classes of British society in the 1960s). The musical was not a success and would have been long ago forgotten if not for it's “Feeling Good” song, which is popular for half a century already.
Nina Simone's version of the song is one of the best known.

New Video Review of Cafe Brigantina in Sochi

Friday night, Head Chef and Owner, Martial Simonneau sat down with me in his Cafe Brigantina. We talked about food, his plans for the future and then I tried and reviewed several items from his menu. Please take a look at the video:

Sochi Train Station Video

Trains stations are much more central to the life of a Russian city than anyplace in America. So on my tour of Sochi's central landmarks, I included this important transport hub. Please take a look and share my video!

Can you see it? Spread the fear...

Lately Twitter and Facebook users have been exchanging misterious pictures with each other. These pictures look ordinal at first, but if you took a closer look you could detect the terrifying faces in them.
They could just be a trick of the light… or something else…
Have a look at the two most popular and terrifying pictures.

Probably the best advert I've seen for a long time

Yesterday I saw the advertisement of The Weight Watchers programme (UK) and found it really inspiring and uplifting.

The Weight Watchers programme (WW) www.weightwatchers.co.uk/plan/index.aspx is a sort of mutual aid movement — something like well known “Alcoholics Anonymous”.

Bruce Talley's series on Sochi, Russia #1

На прошлой неделе обсуждали с Брюсом Талли тот факт что уже 2012 год, а Сочи абсолютно не готов к приему иностранных туристов и вообще людей говорящих на английском!
Совместно с ним, мы решили создавать еженедельный видео-журнал для иностранных туристов, который будет показывать город Сочи глазами англоговорящего человека! Что то вроде видеогида по основным объектам иностранного гостеприимства города!

Sochi, Russia’s Olympic city and pulsing beach resort, sits between the Black Sea and the lofty Caucasus Mountains. In this video series, American Bruce Talley explores Sochi, reviews the hotels and restaurants and chronciles events in this boomtown of mountain sports and beach living.

UFO "Belladonna"

Любимая песня Михаила Прохорова времен его юности. Действительно, красивая :)


OH, BELLADONNA
NEVER KNEW THE PAIN,
MAYBE I 'M CRAZY, MAYBE
IT 'LL DRIVE ME INSANE
THE OPEN LETTER JUST
CARELESSLY PLACED
AND YOU MOVE IN SILENCE,
THE TEA SO DELICATELY LACED.

OUT OF REACH, OUT OF TOUCH
HOW YOU 'VE LEARNED TO HATE SO MUCH.
OUT REACH, OUT OF TOUCH
HOW YOU 'VE LEARNED TO HATE SO MUCH.

CAME FROM PASSION,
AND YOU, GAVE IT A NAME,
THE FINGERS ARE POISONED
LIKE NEEDLESS IN THE DRIVIN' RAIN
SO SMILE DISCREETLY AS YOU
WATCH WITH SUCH GRACE.
NO I MUST SLIP AWAY,BUT
CAN YOU FORGET MY FACE.
