Russia: Soviet Union War Hero On Trial In Estonia!
2008-05-29 13:22:00
Arnold Meri Hello,Estonia has put an 88 year old veteran of the WWII. Moscow is having some real issues over this.........---------------------------------------------Arnol-d Meri is being tried in Estonia for genocide during WW2. But in Russia the 88-year-old veteran is considered a hero, and streets and schools are named after him.Arnold Meri is an Estonian national who was awarded the highest state medal during the war. Estonia accuses him of taking part in the deportation of hundreds of his countrymen to Siberia after the war. If convicted, he could spend the rest of his life behind bars.A village in Russia’s Pskov region is naming a school after the veteran. It educated the regiment under Meri’s command in 1941. Back then, Meri organised the region’s defences against the invading Nazis. He was wounded several times in action.And the city of Gorno-Altaisk in Southern Urals is giving Meri’s name to a street. He lived there after he was stripped of all honours in 1952. Meri ...

It turns out that Tallinn touts Russian draftees by giving them freely Estonian citizenship. More and more Russians try to get no in Russian, but into foreign army. Its? not a secret that ...

Orkut Apps For India, Estonia...Who's Next?
2008-04-18 04:16:00
After previously launching Orkut Apps for Estonia, it looks as if Google is slowly opening the gates by allowing Indian users to test out its features.(Orkut Developer Blog) Last month's prelaunch testing of the orkut developer platform brought a small set of third-party applications to less than 1% of orkut users. After implementing various improvements, tweaks, and fixes, we are moving into the first stage of the official rollout process by announcing the platform's availability in India, which represents about 10% of the orkut user base.More analysis can be seen over at Devil's Workshop as well as the Official Orkut blog, who has provided this helpful video on how to add an app to your Orkut profile.While its good to see more users being able to access Orkut (without having to visit the sandbox aka Orkut beta), Google seems to be ignoring Brazilians, over half of all Orkut users on the site (note: they may have done this for financial reasons, as having millions of Brazilians...

Russian military base found on the border with Estonia
2008-04-07 14:59:00
If you look at the Google Earth map and follow the route A-212 to the west of the Russian town Pskov, you can notice a secret Russian military base not far from the border with Estonia. The Economist magazine states that to the north of the road you can see an oval that is nothing but a “shadow from the satellite dish f at least 66 feet diameter†with 5 small and 1 medium dishes situated nearby. Six years ago the place where today the base stands was empty. The magazine also states that this object isn’t listed in any catalogs. This means that the base was built recently. Read More…
Google Launches Orkut Apps...For Estonia?
2008-04-04 20:18:00
(Hat Tip: Devils Workshop) While I am underwhelmed over the fact that Google selected Estonia to test out their Orkut Apps (instead of Brazil, India, or even the US), users will now at least have the option of checking out the latest Orkut Apps without the need to register for the Orkut Sandbox (Google's beta site for Orkut).In order to test these apps for themselves, users first have to visit their Orkut home page (which is orkut.com/Home.aspx) and click on the edit link located underneath your profile image section.Note: You can also click orkut.com/EditSummary.aspx which will bring you there as well.Next, locate the menu bar that asks you for your home country and change it to Estonia.Then click the update button at the bottom of the page. Once you are finished, simply scroll over to the Orkut App Directory (which you can find over at orkut.com/AppDirectory.aspx and add any feature that you desire (my favorite thus far is iLike).Currently Google is only displaying a grand total ...

48 Hours In Estonia
2008-02-05 13:03:00
Its been 48 hours in Estonia and times have been tough. Being greeted by my friends getting off the boat, seeing some lovely Estonian seaside, showing classic aussie films over a few bottles of red, moving into our HUGE new apartment and being really warmly welcomed by everyone I know. Man this place is the pits. Getting my phone hooked up in 5 minutes. Dry cleaning at one third the cost and done overnight. No, please! one day will kill you, how can you offer such service?? Its terrible to open your laptop any place in old town and be able to find some free wireless to use, thats a bad one. Having the supermarket down the road stock a huge range of beer for sale between 11 and 20 EACH DAY. Oh god your killing me, stop it, stop it. Hello Tallink, is that the 6pm boat? Better get me a first class ticket outta here, I can hardly stand it.

Along Estonia?s Lake Peipsi

The vast expanse of Russia ends abruptly down the middle of Lake Peipsi, where the Republic of Estonia begins. Topography on the Estonian side is muted. Should the lake level ever rise significantly, there is little to keep waters from completely inundating the country. The area is heavily farmed, and individual fields are often ...
Rooney pitching for progress
2007-10-15 18:05:00
Wayne Rooney is confident that England can seal Euro 2008 qualification with victory in Russia on Wednesday.The United striker was part of the side that secured a goalless draw in similar circumstances against Turkey just over five years ago, and he is certain that England can overcome the hurdle of Russia's plastic pitch to book a place at next summer's finals."We know if we get three points then we?ve qualified," he said. "I?m sure it will be difficult and with a plastic pitch, we will not be used to it. But we won?t make excuses if we win or lose ? we just need to do our job."It?s a similar situation to when we played Turkey a few years ago to qualify for the last European Championships. We went out there and did a job and I am confident we can do the same again."Rooney scored his first competitive England goal since 2004 in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Estonia at Wembley, and the mercurial striker was predictably elated to be back on target."I?m delighted to score at any time,...

Estonia win edges England closer to EURO 2008
2007-10-15 11:50:00
After months of real uncertainty and voices of doom, England?s qualification for Euro 2008 looks ever more likely now after the three lions cruised past Estonia 3-0 at Wembley on Saturday.Steve McClaren can sleep that bit easier than when England succumbed lamely 2-0 in Croatia a year ago, only days after tying the mighty Macedonia 0-0 at home.First-half strikes from Shaun-Wright Phillips, Wayne Rooney and an own goal by Estonia?s Taavi Rahn sent England into a 3-0 lead with 33 minutes on the clock and the contest was as good as over.The pre-match atmosphere was far from tense. Confidence in English fans was high following the Wembley win over Russia in September and the media were far more interested in the England rugby team's World Cup semifinal against France in Paris that night than the football team's clash with Estonia.McClaren's men profited from being out of the spotlight for once and looked relaxed as they eased into a comfortable lead in the first half before turning o...

Roo: I haven't played well for England in two years
2007-10-12 09:48:00
Wayne Rooney has admitted it is two years since he last played well for England - and if Emile Heskey had been fit, he would be facing a real fight to start Saturday?s Wembley Euro 2008 qualifier against Estonia.Prior to England?s last two qualifiers against Israel and Russia, a fully-fit Rooney would have been a certainty to start for England such has been his form for his country since making his debut as a 17-year-old against Australia in 2003.Yet the Manchester United forward accepts his omission would have been a distincta possibility had Heskey not broken his metatarsal, an injury that interrupted Rooney's career after he starred in last month?s two victories.Heskey?s absence offers Rooney another chance to impress and potentially end a goal drought in competitive football for England that stretches back to Euro 2004.?My England career started well but it hasn?t really been on track for the last year or two,? he said. "Emile was brilliant and I am sure if he was fit the manag...
Gareth Barry set to start against Estonia and praise for O?Neill

Gareth Barry had two very good games when fat Frank was injured and the results are evidence enough that the manager shouldn't change the teams and according to the papers today, he's starting this weekend.
