Everything died completely and wherever. Real Russian people did not surrender to the enemy, but fought to the last. St. John Chrysostom

Choose your friends wisely.
When self-interest covers itself in the guise of friendship, -
She's only digging a hole for you.
To understand this truth even more clearly,
Listen to my fable.
In winter, the Light smoldered under the Grove;
Apparently, here he was forgotten by the road.
Hour by hour the Fire became weaker;
There is no new firewood; My fire burns a little
And, seeing his end, Rosche says:
“Tell me, dear Grove!
Why is your fate so cruel,
That you can’t see a single leaf,
And you’re freezing completely naked?” -
“Then, all covered in snow,
In winter I can neither turn green nor bloom,”
This is how the Grove responds to fire.
"Trifle!" Fire continues to her:
“Just make friends with me; I'll help you.
I am the brother of the sun, and in winter
I build miracles no less than the sun.
Ask in greenhouses about Fire:
In winter, when snow and blizzards are blowing all around,
Everything is either blooming or ripening there:
And thank you for everything.
At least it’s not appropriate to praise yourself,
And I don't like boasting
But I will not yield to the sun in power.
No matter how arrogantly it shone here,
But without harm to the snow, they descended for the night;
And around me, look how the snow melts,
So if you want to be green in winter,
Like in summer and spring,
Give me a corner!”
Now the matter has been coordinated: already in Ogonyok Grove
Becomes Fire, Fire does not sleep:
Runs along branches, along twigs;
Black smoke rushes towards the clouds in clouds,
And a fierce flame suddenly engulfs the entire Grove.
Everything completely perished, and where on hot days
A passerby took refuge in the shade,
Only charred stumps stand alone,
And there is nothing to marvel at:
How can a tree make friends with fire?

Guys, we put our soul into the site. Thank you for that

9 years later, people began to prepare for the end of the world in honor of the parade of planets. December 17, 1919 6 planets solar system lined up, and American meteorologist Albert Port immediately predicted that the Sun would explode and the Earth would suffer from the explosion. When no tragedy occurred, he came out and publicly apologized.

Millennium Armageddon was special because Nostradamus himself predicted it. Other predictors and even scientists also got involved. The program was big: nuclear war, an asteroid, a comet that will fall into Atlantic Ocean, explosion supernova and a major solar eclipse.

  • One of the major Armageddons was due to be caused by computers. The fact is that the technology of that time, when the year 2000 arrived, perceived it as the year 1900. Tens of thousands of people were waiting for the uprising of machines, the explosion of all power plants and the fall of all planes.
  • On May 5, another parade of planets took place. According to tradition, everyone was waiting for a tsunami and complete destruction.
  • But on September 26, it was expected that the real-life asteroid Tautatis would crash into the Earth. Moreover, after 4 years, the asteroid approached the planet so close that even scientists sounded the alarm. But the Earth was lucky and the asteroid flew past.

The official launch of the Large Hadron Collider caused a lot of noise. At the time, people were concerned that the launch would create a black hole that would swallow the entire planet. Hundreds of people sent petitions and organized rallies asking for the “doomsday machine” to be destroyed. But on September 10, the collider was launched and nothing happened.

There is a unique monument in Cherkasy region 150 border dogs, who “torn” the fascist regiment in hand-to-hand combat. This unique battle between people and dogs in the entire history of world wars and conflicts took place in the very center of Ukraine many years ago, and it was like this...

It was the third month of the war, or rather, it had just begun, when at the end of July events occurred that for the first time changed the course of the Great Patriotic War, or the entire course of the “Eastern Company,” as the war was called at headquarters. Few people know that by his own order, Kyiv was supposed to fall by August 3, and on the 8th he was going to come to the “victory parade” in the capital of Ukraine himself, and not alone, but with the leader of Italy Mussolini and the dictator of Slovakia Tisso.

It was not possible to take Kyiv head-on, and an order was received to bypass it from the south... So a terrible word appeared in people’s rumors "Green Brama", an area not shown on any maps of great battles Great War. This wooded and hilly area on the right bank of the Sinyukha River, near the villages of Podvysokoye in the Novoarkhangelsk district of the Kirovograd region and Legezino Talnovsky district of the Cherkassy region is only known today as one of the most tragic events first months. And even then, thanks to the fact that a famous songwriter was a participant in the fierce battles during the Uman defensive operation Evgeny Aronovich Dolmatovsky. With the release of his book “Green Brahma” (full format) in 1985, the secret of “Green Brahma” was revealed...

In these places, the 6th and 12th armies of the Southwestern Front of Generals Muzychenko and Ponedelin, departing from the western border, were surrounded and almost completely destroyed. By the beginning of August they numbered 130 thousand people, from Brama 11 thousand came to their own soldiers and officers, mainly from the rear units. The rest were either captured or remained forever in the Green Brama tract...

In a separate battalion of the border guard detachment for the rear of the Southwestern Front, which was created on the basis of the Separate Kolomiysk border commandant’s office and the border detachment of the same name, retreating from the border with heavy fighting, there were service dogs. They, together with the fighters of the border detachment, steadfastly endured all the hardships of the harsh times.

The battalion commander, who is also the deputy chief of staff of the Kolomiysk border detachment, Major Lopatin (according to other sources, the combined detachment was commanded by Major Filippov), despite the extremely poor conditions of detention, the lack of proper food and the command’s proposals to release the dogs, did not do this. Near the village of Legedzino, the battalion, covering the withdrawal of the headquarters units of the command of the Uman army group, received its last Stand...

The forces were too unequal: against half a thousand border guards there was a regiment of fascists. And at a critical moment, when the Germans launched another attack, Major Lopatin gave the order to send border guards and service dogs. This was the last reserve.

The spectacle was terrible: 150 (various data - from 115 to 150 border dogs, including those from the Lviv border service dog breeding school) trained, half-starved shepherd dogs, against the Nazis pouring machine-gun fire on them. Shepherd dogs dug into the throats of the Nazis even in their death throes.

The enemy, literally bitten and hacked to pieces with bayonets, retreated, but tanks came to help. The bitten German infantrymen, with lacerated wounds and screams of horror, jumped onto the armor of the tanks and shot the poor dogs. In this fight All 500 border guards died, not one of them surrendered.

And the surviving dogs, according to eyewitnesses - residents of the village of Legedzino, remained faithful to their handlers to the end. Each of those who survived in that meat grinder lay down next to their owner and did not let anyone near him. The German animals shot every shepherd dog, and those of them who were not shot by the Germans refused food and died of hunger in the field...

Even the village dogs got it - the Germans shot them large dogs villagers, even those who were on a leash. Only one shepherd was able to crawl to the hut and fell at the door. They sheltered their devoted four-legged friend, went out, and the villagers learned from the collar on her that they were border dogs not only of the Kolomiysk Border Commandant's Office, but also of the captain's special service dog breeding school M.E. Kozlova.

After that battle, when the Germans collected their dead, according to the recollections of the village residents (unfortunately there are few left in this world) it was allowed to bury the Soviet border guards. Everyone who was found was gathered in the center of the field and buried along with their faithful four-legged helpers, and the secret of the burial was hidden for many years...

Researcher of that memorable battle Alexander Fuka says that the memory of the heroism of the border guards and their assistants among the village residents was so great that, despite the presence of the German occupation administration and a detachment of policemen, half the village boys proudly wore the green caps of the dead. And the local residents who were burying the border guards, hiding from the Nazis, tore out photographs of the dead from the Red Army books and officer’s ID cards in order to later send them for identification (keeping such documents was a mortal danger, so it was not possible to establish the names of the heroes).

And the planned triumphal meeting between Mussolini and Mussolini took place on August 18, but, of course, not in Kyiv, but there, near Legedzino, on the road that led to Talny and which the Soviet border guards held as their border. Only in 1955, the residents of Legedzino were able to collect the remains of almost all 500 border guards and move them to the village school, near which there is a mass grave.

And on the outskirts of the village, where the only hand-to-hand fight in the world between people and dogs and the Nazis took place, on May 9, 2003, a the only monument in the world a man with a gun and his true friend- to the dog. There is no such monument anywhere else.

“Stop and bow. Here, in July 1941, soldiers of the separate Kolomyia border commandant’s office launched their final attack on the enemy. 500 border guards and 150 their service dogs died the death of the brave in that battle. They remained forever faithful to their oath and their native land.”

Today the names of only two dead border guards are known...

    In the evening, just before dusk, I walked along Voznesensky Prospekt. I love the March sun(?) in St. Petersburg, especially the sunset, of course, on a clear(?) frosty evening. The whole street will suddenly flash, bathed in bright light. All the houses seem to suddenly light up. Their gray, yellow and dirty (green) colors (for) a moment lose all their gloominess; as if your soul becomes clearer... as if you will shudder or someone will nudge you with their elbow. It's amazing what one ray(?) of the sun can do to a person's soul!

    But the sunbeam(?) went out; the frost grew stronger and began to pinch my nose; the dusk was getting thicker.

    HOW WE READ

    Letters merge into words; words form into sentences; sentences combine into images; images merge into plots; plots form a thought.

    After the thought becomes clear, it breaks down into plots, plots - into images, images - into sentences, sentences - into words, words - into letters, the letters float before the eyes, the eyelids stick together, the book falls out of the hands.
