WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 19 CONTENTS

(1) Remembering Russian/Soviet Barbarism at Katyn

(2) Russians Need American Help to win Basketball Title

(3) The Friends of Georgia

(4) We Told You So

NOTE: La Russophobe is delighted and honored to announce that in today's online editions of the Washington Post and Slate, the brilliant Russia columnist Anne Applebaum, oft-quoted here, links to our post analyzing the appointment of Viktor Zubkov as Russia's new prime minister (the link is behind the phrase "Zubkov is actually extremely important" in the second bullet point), and also links to our republication of another analysis of that issue by the Zaxi bilingual blog. We couldn't be more thrilled! LR makes the big time!

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."

Socrates: "To be is to do." Sartre: "To do is to be." Sinatra: "Do be do be do."

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.
