Summer Break



It's been a long time since my last post. This was my fault, a bizarre series of cirmcumstances brings me to where I am today! Between buying a new home, moving, work, and the fact that Google pulled the plug on my advertising, I haven't felt much like writing about Russia, or topics relating to Russia.

I started this blog with intentions of focusing on Russia, and I intend to. Rather than only spending time on what happens in Russia, I'd like to begin moving into the areas of Europe that Russia has had an impact on, good and bad. I would like to solicit any feedback, from you the readers on what you would like to see. I do hope to keep politics out of the discussion, as this always leads to a heated debate, but would like to point out how Russia has influenced its neighbors or how they have influenced Russia.

Back to Google. As most bloggers do, I posted a couple of adverts on my site hoping that the occasional clicker would help me generate a little spending cash. Some of my friends and family apparently tried to hook my up, by over clicking, drawing the attentions of Google's fraud division. Who in turn shut me down like an unlicensed VFW, and barring me from opening an adsense account for life! Oh well, I guess I'll go back to collecting aluminum cans!

So dear readers, please let me know what content you would like to see, and I shall deliver. I want to make this fun for everyone, and not just what I think is needed. I look forward to your comments.
