Wishes for the last week of the outgoing year. With what results are you ending the difficult outgoing year? What prospects will give us the year of the red fire monkey? Aphorisms about the outgoing year

On the eve of the New Year, it is customary to remember the good things that we remember the outgoing year. 2015, despite the difficulties, was rich in interesting events that left warm and vivid memories. Today we will not talk about politics and economics - in the center of our attention are only the positive phenomena of cultural and public life, which caused a wide resonance and were able to truly surprise and please.

The date.
Undoubtedly, the most significant event of the year was the large-scale celebration of the great date - the 70th anniversary of the Victory of our people in the Great Patriotic war. The traditional parade on the main square of the country, the grand action "Immortal Regiment" and thousands of other commemorative events that took place throughout the country and gathered millions of people were called upon to say "Thank you" to all veterans once again for the great feat that they accomplished for their Motherland.

Movie.
In 2015, for the first time, a Russian film was awarded the prestigious Golden Globe Award (before that, only the Soviet film War and Peace received the award). Andrey Zvyagintsev's film Leviathan, which was also awarded at the Cannes Film Festival for Best Screenplay and a number of other significant film forums, became a triumph at international festivals.

And the main movie characters of 2015 were, of course, funny varmints from the cartoon "Minions". And although the audience was familiar with the minions of the villain Gru even before that, the release of a full-length tape dedicated exclusively to the adventures of the yellow men caused a real stir. The box office of the cartoon exceeded $ 1 billion, turning it into perhaps the most commercially successful "actors" of the year.

Music.
The most successful musical project of 2015 was new album British singer Adele, who topped all the major world charts. The record, called "25", sold in record numbers in the first week of release alone - over 7 million copies were sold worldwide. The singer herself called the album, released after a three-year break, the most important milestone in her work.

Literature.
Laureate Nobel Prize in literature this year was the Belarusian writer Svetlana Aleksievich, who writes in Russian. The last time a Russian-speaking author received an honorary award was in 1987, when the committee noted the poet Joseph Brodsky. Svetlana Aleksievich is the author of artistic and documentary works devoted to acute social and moral topics (“War has no woman’s face”, “Zinc Boys”, “Chernobyl Prayer”, etc.).

Fashion.
2015 brought a new trend to fashion fans. Glamcore is a style for those who are not afraid to be the center of attention and stand out from the crowd. Until recently, feathers, rhinestones and breathtaking accessories were the prerogative of pop stars, and today bright and outrageous outfits conquer the streets of big cities. Glamcore takes its cue from such established stage performers as Lady Gaga and Anna Dello Russo, and encourages you to express your individuality through clothing, choosing enchanting outfits with a perky character as everyday.

Name.
The British royal house has long been on the lists of the most talked about people on the planet. Every step of the crowned persons is monitored by the press and fans. It is not surprising that the replenishment in the royal family had an exceptional resonance: only the lazy did not write about the newly-made princess. The daughter of Prince William and his wife was born on May 2. The girl was named Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

Internet.
In March, the online community was divided into two camps, trying to guess what color the dress was in a photo posted by a Tumblr user. One part of the participants in the dispute claimed that the outfit was blue and black, while the other was sure of the white and gold color of the robe. The discussion quickly took on a viral character, literally sweeping the net. Many celebrities expressed their opinion, and even Adobe did not stand aside from the general controversy. The manufacturer put an end to the discussion, which stated that in fact the dress is still blue and black.

Animals.
The whole country has been following the story of the amazing friendship between the goat Timur and the tiger Amur from the Primorsky safari park in the format of a reality show for a month now. And it all started when the artiodactyl was brought to the predator's enclosure to be eaten. However, the tiger not only refused the treat, but also made friends with Timur. The animals became so popular that the park staff decided to regularly keep a diary and post video reports about the life of the wards. Today, all the leading media write and talk about Timur and Amur. The interest in this story is so great that the park management promised to install webcams so that users could follow the fate of their favorite characters in real time.

What do you remember about 2015?

Literally a few hours left before the end of 2017, and we wanted to sum up some results for our republic.

We reduce debts

Since the beginning of 2017, the municipal debt of the republic has decreased
from 23.6 billion rubles to 18.2 billion rubles. in the rating of regional tax policy, for the 2nd year in a row, it steadily occupies the 4th place, second only to the city of Moscow, Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug-Yugra and the Capital Region.

Industrial production index for 9 months current year rose to 102.3% compared to the past.

The purchasing power for food products increased on average, but for non-food products, and vice versa, it decreased. Also, the real disposable income of the population decreased by 8% compared to September.

— At the end of 2017, the inflation rate was significantly lower than in 2016 (1.6% against 4.9% in 2016). The greatest slowdown in inflationary processes was noted in the group of products, the increase in prices for services was 0.5 percentage points lower, reports Bashstat.

But the Head of the Republic of Belarus himself also notes shortcomings in the economy of the Republic of Belarus.

“Unfortunately, this year we will have a budget surplus of about 5-8 billion rubles… A surplus is always an underutilized objective opportunity. Of course, we would like these funds to be used properly and focused on construction projects, facilities,” Khamitov said at a meeting with reporters.

The downtrend is changing

In recent years, under the guise of optimization, there has been a steady downward trend in social. sphere. This year the situation began to change. Open: 3 schools, 7 kindergartens, the Regional Vascular Center in Ufa, 10 FAPs in the regions of the Republic of Belarus, including modular ones. The only rural and the only regional house of culture were reconstructed and started work. In Ufa, the historical park "Russia - my history" was opened with pomp.

Political trends of the year

First, there has been a political confrontation between the Head of the Republic of Belarus and the Ufa mayor Irek Yalalov. It comes with varying success, but of course it already affects the regional agenda and the balance of power. If Yalalov generally flickers less and less in the state media, then Rustem Khamitov he goes more into the shadows. That this " cold war» is the main political event year, political scientist Abbas Gallyamov also believes.

As, of course, another contender for the chair of the Head of the Republic of Belarus, the grandson of Mustai Karim and the son-in-law of Igor Sechin, Timerbulat Karimov, has taken shape on the agenda.

Another political phenomenon of the year was the formation of the Bashkir public as an opposition force to the administration of the republic. Rallies for the resignation of Rustem Khamitov have become the most massive in recent years. On the other hand, the consolidation of the general public around the NGO "Congress of the Bashkir People of the Republic of Belarus" and NGO "Bashkort" became a renaissance of the Bashkir movement. It is possible that under the current status quo, opposition to the leadership of the Russian Federation, of course, will grow.

Processes of the year

The litigation of PJSC Rosneft, PJSC Bashneft and the Government of the Republic of Belarus on the one hand, and AFK Sistema on the other hand brought Bashkiria to long time in federal news feeds. Collectively, with that, the sonorous process, very similar to the “squeezing” of a business, did not disturb ordinary inhabitants. Unless they were nervous at gas stations when they saw that prices had grown 10 times since the beginning of the year.

Two lawsuits and the dismissal of the former vice-mayor of Ufa, Alexander Filippov, attracted the attention of Ufa residents. If Filippov lost the first process related to dismissal due to a conflict of interest in 2 instances, then the accusation of tax evasion is only under judicial investigation. The freshest reports from the courtroom absolutely bring surprises every time and it is quite difficult to predict the verdict of the court. But another former vice-mayor and opponent of Alexander Filippov, of course, has already received a real prison term.

Spending and scandals of the year

The most resounding scandal that affected the political alignment and the budget of Ufa was the case of spending a billion rubles from the Housing and Utilities Reform Fund to clear out a dilapidated dwelling. Billions of rubles had to be returned to the federal treasury at the expense of local budgets, and a huge number of officials from the mayor’s office to Tukaev experienced an unpleasant shiver. Vice-premier Ilyas Munirov, Alexander Filippov fell as a visible victim, bureaucrats of the mayor's office Ildar Khasanova, Marat Gareev and others received and will receive a criminal offence. Well, what nerves, efforts and means to transfer the flame and extinguish it cost Rustem Khamitov, so far only he understands.

Immediately a galaxy of road bureaucrats had to leave their seats in connection with the construction of the road and the bridge Karaidel - Tastuba - Satka. Our publications throughout the year have shown that we are talking about spending not hundreds of millions, but billions of rubles, therefore we will closely follow the actions of the security forces in relation to the defendants in the criminal case.

Well, in the end, we recall about the "opening" of an organized group with the role of Deputy Prime Minister Yevgeny Guryev, engaged in the alienation of state. property for the benefit of third parties. This epic is just beginning to gain momentum on our pages, so of course we still have a lot of interesting things waiting for us.

You will say that there are a lot of criminal tones? What can you do, this is the year. There is little real politics, more imitation, and in the world economy, if not a fall, then stagnation. But arrests and corruption brawls are always curious, there is social justice in this. So more justice in 2018!

Despite the 100th anniversary of the Russian Troubles, as the October Revolution is also called in Russia, the outgoing year passed quite calmly in the Orenburg region. fighting with Russian weapons traveled far into the Middle East. Terrorists showed themselves in other Russian regions.

And our region was distinguished only by a record grain harvest, a rebuilt embankment of the Ural River, Ugandan students who came to our youth festival, who recorded a record knitting of the Orenburg downy shawl, and even several bright events in the life of the city and region.

Event of the year

The main event of the outgoing 2017 in Orenburg region was an unprecedented grain harvest.

The total gross harvest in peasant farms of all types and forms amounted to 4 million 370 thousand tons of grain. For comparison: last year the harvest did not exceed 3 million 200 thousand tons.

At the same time, our farmers did not radically increase the sown area. It’s just that the average yield in the region, instead of the usual 10-11 centners per hectare, in the current 2017 rose to the level of 16 centners.

According to specialists from the Orenburg Ministry Agriculture, this was facilitated, firstly, weather- not hot summer with rains in June and dry August. And secondly, the competent actions of both agronomists and combine operators, who this year managed to carry out all the necessary technological processes. And not only to grow, but also to harvest without loss.

Comparing this year with the fruitful 1968, Nikolay Lebedev, head of the crop production department of the Orenburg Ministry of Agriculture, said that the equipment now, of course, is more efficient than the one that was. But there are clearly not enough staff. And therefore, if the yield were a little higher, part of the grain could remain unharvested.

The Orenburg region did not become the first in Russia in terms of gross harvest. The southern regions of our country also distinguished themselves by a large harvest. However, our wheat is considered one of the best in terms of quality.

And therefore, no one was surprised when the Minister of Agriculture of the region, Mikhail Maslov, was awarded in Moscow with a gold medal "For contribution to the development of the agro-industrial complex of Russia." True, he himself, at a meeting in the ministry, told his colleagues that it was not only he who was awarded, but all the Orenburg peasants.

Persons of the Year

We intentionally put the plural in the title of this rubric. This year, the residents of the regional center became the person of the year, who immediately rose in search of 12-year-old Nastya Dyakova, who was kidnapped by a pedophile.

The girl managed to call her mother out of the car where she was stuffed. And my mother got in touch with groups of Orenburg bloggers, who put on their ears not only the police, who traditionally slowly respond to such statements, but also all caring citizens.

Volunteers who combed the districts of Stepnoy and the bypass found the attacker and the failed victim at a dead end near the city dump. Young residents of Orenburg Bulat Bayrov, Ildar Salimov and Nikita Lapshin detained 30-year-old Permian Yuri Tiunov, who was on a business trip in Orenburg. And in Perm he was already wanted for a series of similar kidnappings, some of which ended in the murder of children.

The pedophile was sentenced to life in prison at the end of the year. And the residents of Orenburg suddenly realized their strength in the ability to urgently unite to help their fellow countrymen. Then even law enforcement begin to work, and not formally report on the introduction of an interception plan.

The city seriously thought about the formation of an informal volunteer service. And one of the three heroes who detained the pedophile, this year, among other things, has also passed the competition and training for the cosmonaut corps in Star City. There was a publication about it on our website in the summer.

Politician of the Year

No matter how much one would like to name a politician of the year in our Orenburg region a previously not very noticeable figure, for example, from the opposition, but the real contender for victory in this nomination is Governor Yuri Berg. Whoever predicted to him in the year of the centenary of the revolution the loss of his post, independent resignation or early elections, but nothing of the sort happened.

Moreover, this year the Orenburg governor was awarded the Order of Honor "for the success achieved in work and many years of conscientious labor activity." And this is against the background of the departure from their posts of his colleagues in neighboring regions.

In the outgoing year, the governor made it clear to his opponents in the region and not only how strong and stable his position is.

True, according to an unofficial popular rating, the title of politician of the year, along with the governor, can be shared by the head of the Saving Life Foundation, Anna Mezhova, who managed to attract maximum media attention this year. And even provoke Nikolai Baskov to come to Orenburg and visit the foundation.

Actually, Anna's scandalous publication sold out in in social networks after Baskov and Meladze stated that they performed for free at the wedding of the daughter of a Krasnodar judge. Mezhova quipped: they say, then sing for free for our children who have suffered from violence. Can you come?

And Basque arrived. And even in addition to the concert, he met with the children from the foundation, advising them to never give up and believe in themselves.

Meladze expressed his respect to the fund by phone, but did not succumb to the provocation with his arrival.

State of emergency of the year

Emergencies in 2017, unlike the previous 2016, occurred not at the beginning, but at the end of the year. The main emergency could be the release of gas from a repaired well, when three dozen residents of the village of Samorodovo were poisoned. But this state of emergency was less noticeable for Orenburg residents than the December fires in large shopping centers of the city.

The first to burst into flames was the newly built, but never put into operation, the Lyubimy shopping center, located opposite the automobile bridge across the Urals. Open fire raged in the attic and roof of the building. Acrid smoke shrouded the bridge and the trans-ural part of Donguzskaya Street. And numerous onlookers filmed the work of firefighters on video and posted it on social networks.

No harm done. According to unofficial data, the workers who came to the facility from all over the region were running out of time, and no one paid attention to safety precautions. Local residents of the neighboring private sector watched as sparks of electric welding poured from the attic all week. It caught fire on Friday.

And just a day later it flared up shopping center"Mir", better known to Orenburg residents as a Vietnamese market on Pobedy Avenue. The fire broke out over the weekend. Everything that could burn, including goods, burned down.

In their appeal to the governor, entrepreneurs who lost all their property in the fire assured that the market was set on fire by competitors. What really happened is hard to say. As they say, an investigation is underway. And, judging by the way it is being conducted, we will never know the truth.

But the Raduga shopping center in the 23rd microdistrict, which caught fire a week later, was quickly extinguished. And the fire did not cause as much damage as the previous two. And here, almost immediately, the cause of the fire was determined: electrical appliances. Probably, the Ministry of Emergency Situations was tired of the hype in the press and social networks, where versions have already begun to appear that in Orenburg, allegedly, the number of sellers exceeded the number of buyers. This means that trade wars are possible.

Breakthrough of the Year

It was carried out by our football team "Orenburg".

Steeply climbed in a few recent years the club, led by an energetic coach Robert Evdokimov, showed class in the RFPL in the first half of the year, playing with teams from the major leagues. He was in 13th position out of 16 and could not even get into the play-offs. Since it was on a par with the Makhachkala "Anji", after all, it turned out to be one step higher.

But football is a game. The little-known Khabarovsk SKA at the junctions twice brought a zero score. And then, due to his goalkeeper, who won back the penalty shootout, he literally leaked into the big leagues. And FC Orenburg ended up in the FNL again.

To say that it crippled the team is an understatement. Robert Evdokimov left the post of coach. Football players began to dismantle other clubs.

The half-Georgian, half-European coach Temuri Ketsbaya, who replaced Robert, could not find an approach to the team. FC Orenburg pursued defeats already in the FNL zone. The team fell to the bottom of the table. The news finished off the fans that even our famous Orenburg defender Adesoye Oyevole moved to Perm Amkar.

However, the management of the club, apparently, is also tired of this state of affairs. And instead of Ketsbay, Vladimir Fedotov, who had previously worked as an ordinary coach at the Evdokimov headquarters, was appointed head coach of FC Orenburg.

This was already our new team, which managed to fall from the heights of the RFPL in one year of 2017, rise from its knees and reach second place in the FNL, which now makes it possible to move to the big leagues without play-offs. However, we still have the second half of the season.

And how selflessly devoted to the team the players can be judged at least by the fact that in one of latest games our captain Dmitry Andreev, scoring the decisive goal with his head, put his face under the opponent's boot. And he was seriously injured, but the match was won. Adesoye Oyevole in the next match suffered a fracture of the collarbone, but did not let the attacking opponents to our gates.

Curiosity of the year

And the strangest and most controversial piece of news on Russian social networks related to the Orenburg region this year was the recording of one violation on video. Somewhere near Volgograd, an old VAZ "six" violated the speed limit.

The receipt for the fine was sent to Omsk. But the Omsk car owner said that, firstly, he had a different car. Secondly, on the "six" Orenburg numbers. And, thirdly, Comrade Stalin himself was driving. And he was carrying, judging by the picture, none other than Jesus Christ.

Numerous bloggers stood up for the Omsk citizen, confirming that, judging by the traffic police picture, a car was indeed driving through Volgograd from Orenburg, where Stalin was carrying Christ. Well, it looks amazing!

Someone, however, suggested that they were Leonid Kanevsky and Igor Talkov. But the main part of bloggers was for the initial assumption. And most importantly, everyone was sure that any neighbors on the Orenburg land could get along with each other. And the fact that Stalin was taking Christ from us to Mamaev Kurgan or somewhere in the direction of the Crimea is an ordinary situation for Orenburg, and not out of the ordinary.

Therefore, we wish all our readers in the coming year more joyful moments in life. And we hope that 2018 will become more positive for all of us in every sense!

Friends go away old year and a new one is right around the corner... New Year), which means it's time to sum up. Did you let you down, did you make a wish?

Fantastic time of the year..! And after all, only we alone in the whole world managed to create a celebration of universal scope from the next calendar change, which even THERE liked it upstairs 😀

I think almost everyone is ready for the arrival, (as the ancient Slavs called the year). Gifts were stocked up, New Year's beauties of the Christmas tree were lit up everywhere, the city lights sparkled, shop windows and our houses were transformed, the biggest aesthetes decorated their blogs-)

FOR THE FIRST TIME this year, (hello to Soviet childhood), I decided to create something New Year's with my own hands, otherwise I got bored with Chinese tinsel. I took advice from women's blogs, I made stencils myself. Thank you girls for the ideas. It turned out here is such a window graffiti. Check out the exclusive:


I experienced incredible pleasure and I don’t feel sorry for the time spent. Now it's nice to look into the "frosty snowy morning", making up for the lack of winter landscapes in our area or count the stars in the night sky. Wow, more snow for us ...

And another thought had time to flash: maybe do needlework - knit, embroider, weave macramé, ... sew on a typewriter 🙂? After all, I used to be addicted to all this.

Results of 2017

How was 2017 for us? Everyone has their own…. Remember what analogy we made in 2017 with 1917? And nothing bad happened - and this is already good.

The year 2017 was not particularly successful for me, after the leap year 2016 was extremely bright and starry, then, contrary to signs, a lot of good things happened in family plan, and in the blog, this one went quietly and somehow to no avail. It can be seen that no one has yet canceled the balance in the Universe.

But a lot happened for the FIRST TIME!

FOR THE FIRST TIME in my life, NOT ONE of my New Year's wishes came true from those that I carefully entered on the eve of 2017 in a notebook in a box, guided by the instructions of smart gurus. And I followed all the instructions carefully, obediently and according to the list. Nothing came true! Well, it happens… They say that now it’s not enough to want and write down, since desires are sent to the Universe in abundance, everyone has learned to do this), now we need to add meditation, visualization and cunning practices to this. And how are you with this? Have yours been fulfilled?

But I'm not worried, it's not fulfilled - it just means that the time has not come. All come true…! And the outgoing year will be remembered in a special way. He was rich in emotions, sensations, feelings. There were many, different, burning painful, calm and peaceful, joyful and exciting ... as it should be in life. Otherwise, well, what is life without pain and experiences? Or maybe it's just that? After all, each overcoming oneself, solving or not solving problems, the appearance of any results gives us strength, spiritual growth, builds up worldly wisdom, experience. And remember:

“You can’t appreciate the sweetness of life without tasting the bitterness of troubles.” Sh. Rustavelli

For the FIRST TIME this year I visited and still under impressions. And I think, how did I manage not to go there earlier, judging by your comments, everyone managed to visit there back in Soviet times. And no, I didn't...

FOR THE FIRST TIME in my life, I started doing Tibetan hormonal exercises every morning for 10 minutes. Unexpectedly, I liked this action. And I recommend you.

FOR THE FIRST TIME originated from Internet communication, which brought a lot of positive emotions and continued communication now in reality.

FOR THE FIRST TIME this year on the blog for as long as three weeks, tired of the surging flow of communication and the monotony of rituals, and the first one was from this “no ice”.

This year I managed to participate in three interesting competitions in various blogs, and ironically, for the FIRST TIME, she won everywhere. Somewhere thanks to you and your voices. And so sweet were these tiny moments of success that colored my everyday life.

In December, the blog turned 4 years old. FOR THE FIRST TIME, she didn’t announce the date, well, how long can you draw cakes and light candles? By the way, such rituals have almost disappeared from blogging, or we grow up, or we hide our age 🙂, or I read the wrong blogs.

In the fall, I started to run another site, and surprisingly, it started successfully. But for now, I'm talking about it...

FOR THE FIRST TIME this year I started (I can rightly say so), because the average monthly income approached the minimum wage in the country of 7800 rubles, despite the fact that not all resources are involved by me. So be aware that a site with 1,000 visitors a day can actually provide a nice boost to your income. Who aspires to this - I sincerely wish to achieve.

I will not continue to give dry numbers of results, ratings, issues, falls ... After all, by and large, all this is complete nonsense. I realized this quite recently, just the other day, it suddenly dawned on me…. Everyone knows that the most important thing is that the business you are doing is not a burden, attracts and brings joy. And so that you yourself are in harmony with yourself).

And no less important is the awareness of the unity of people, all of us. Those who are close to you in life and those who are somewhere behind the monitor, but his participation is so alive and real, sometimes tangible more real than what is happening in life, and you feel it with all the fibers of your soul. And just a couple of words, a smiley, even an ellipsis is sometimes enough to feel the impulse of someone's soul, if these souls are tuned to the same wavelength as yours.

I have new readers, new friends, with old ones somewhere relations have become even closer, but somewhere they have come to naught. My blog has been unread a few interesting people, whose opinion I especially valued, I stopped reading some blogs .... Well, it also happens, because people come into our lives when there is a need for it and stay nearby as long as it is necessary and important. Gone - it means that I ceased to correspond to their ideas, and accordingly, somewhere I got bored. This is also normal. Change is inevitable in our lives.

It’s not customary for us to congratulate on the outgoing year, it’s gone and gone… And yet, let’s thank 2017 for every day it has lived. And let the best thing that happened stay with us, well, we don’t want absolutely everything NEW, yet the old is often closer and closer.

I thank you my readers and friends for being with the Solar Circle all 365 days:

For support and your friendly shoulder in difficult times;

For your bright, informative, often funny and sparkling comments;

For your questions and messages in personal mail and the words of gratitude sent in response;

For help with the blog in its technical part, for assistance and participation in making the site better and better.

I hope we will be together in 2018)
