MONDAY AUGUST 4 CONTENTS

(1) Another Original LR Translation: Essel on Russia by the Numbers

(2) EDITORIAL: The Trouble with Vladimir

(3) Putin's "Divide and Conquer" Strategy for Europe

(4) The Dance of the Mad Swans

(5) A Neo-Soviet Ghetto Rises in Russia

(6) Annals of a Russian Sports Bloodbath

NOTE: Another stunning piece of work by Dave Essel (#1) opens another window into real life in Russia, and a second translation, by Robert Amsterdam's translator at our request, is republished here as well (# 5). We continue to open doors to understanding the real Russia as nobody else in the world. As we say in our sidebar: "You don't understand the real Russia unless you read La Russophobe."

Pioneer Power: Though he painted more than 1,000 works of art in his lifetime, Vincent Van Gogh sold only two.

Mark Twain: "It's a man with very little imagination who can only spell a word one way."

Girl Power: On May 14, 2006, a perfect game was pitched in the Oakfield, New York Little League. Perfect as in 18 consecutive strikeouts. The pitcher's name? Katie Brownell. She's the only female player in the league.

Girl Power: On April 13, 2007, the Independent reported that women will soon be able to produce sperm cells from their bone marrow, making men obsolete.
