Motorcycle with a drum kit built by biker Moscow Alexander Ishutin. Musician and businessman, he believes that Moscow is less and less remains unusual. Alexander recalls how cool it used to be in the 90s at the observation deck, where traditionally all bikers met. Those were the days you could see really amazing, custom made bikes. Now, in his opinion, the main trend is to go to the bike store, purchase a big bike and show off…. Via Weird Video.

On the banks of the Uglich Reservoir, there is a town in the Tver district of Russia named Kalyazin. While creating the reservoir, the old part of Kalyazin was deliberately flooded, St. Nicholas Cathedral was dismantled, and its bell tower was left partially under the water. The tower was planned for use as a parachute tower, but in the end it became a local landmark, which gives us strange photos. (3 photos total)

During the previous administration, Yulia Tymoshenko rose to the position of Prime Minister, the presidents right hand man … or lady in this case. She managed to grab most of Ukraine’s energy resources in the process, made ridiculous amounts of money through bribery and corruption, and almost rose to the position of President. Unfortunately for her, she didn’t quite make it to president.
Today, instead of a traditional court visit by Tymoshenko, there were three of “Tymoshenko”. Femen activists tempted police with boobs and money trying to negotiate freedom of speech and anti corruption policies. Ukraine’s political arena has always been a point of global ridicule, so the ladies of FEMEN decided to take it one step further. Three ladies, dressed as Yulia Tymoshenko, armed with ample amounts of money and their luscious breasts, stormed the courthouse.
They threw money at the police, begging for their freedom (coincidentally, this is standard operating procedure when arrested in Ukraine). They revealed their breasts hoping for a little more leniency. Lets hope with all that money, and a little bear tit, Yulia’s farcical trial may be edged her way a bit. (2 photos total)
