POLITICS

Alternative: consent or $117 million

Russia is ready to claim Georgia to pay back USD 117 million debt, an Azerbaijanian news agency informs. On Georgian politicians opinion the reason Russia recalls the debt is Georgia's veto to Russia's membership in the World Trade Organization (WTO).

How safe this August will be

Threat of Russian military aggression decreased significantly this summer, though August of 2012 will be the "hottest" month of the year. Beginning of August of 2009 was extremely tense for Georgia. Only a year passed after the war and Moscow organized another grandiose military training -Kavkaz-2009 in north Caucasus; and Russian occupation troops were redeployed in occupied Abkhazia and Tskhinvali region.

Confederation: One more Bait to Delight Kremlin

The Kremlin's fantasies seem to exceed all limits. Russian officials elevated under the influence of international organizations are trying to impose a new initiative on the Georgian side. On Russian web sites Russian experts propagate the idea of Georgian-Ossetian-Abkhazian confederation. As the Kremlin controls most of media outlets in Russia, dissemination of this sort of initiative is in no way an accidental way of development.

The End of 'Inception'

LEVERAGE follows the adventures of a highly skilled team out to settle scores against those who use power and wealth to victimize others. The gang is led by former insurance investigator Nate Ford (Hutton), who got involved in the con business after his former employer refused to pay for treatment that could have saved his son's life.


YARDSTICK FOR MEASURING CULTURE

There are spheres of science, manufacturing and culture where Japan is showing achievements not surpassed by others. Toilets are one of these Achievements that make Japan a true 22nd-century country. But why discuss toilets, and not other Japan's dazzling successes?! To me, the state of public toilets in a society is a good yardstick for qualifying civilization progress.



DISCOVERY

LOST 'DON QUIXOTE' BY PICASSO TURNED UP IN GEORGIA [?!]

Imagine that you are a usual resident of Tbilisi and you have several antiquities left by your ancestors, one of them being very interesting - a lithograph of Picasso's painting. But you don't know whether this painting is the original or a copy and generally which one it is in the sequence of copies.  You never got interested in this. The painting hanging on the wall is rather an expression of respect to those people who had presented it to you.


SPOTLIGHT


Putin's Scenario Fatal for Our Authorities

As a rule, ministers, their deputies and heads of departments fall under the control of the prime-minister, and are equally subject to his or her compliments and criticism. However, till the Georgian President makes much hyped seminal decision to challenge Putin with longevity of his reign, he could be prompted to back off prematurely, when he sees that his abundant energy won't fit the dullness of premier's duties.
