Here are some more information for Russian Fed:

Kazakhstan is a country located right in the heart of Eurasia. It's kind of sandwiched between the two world powers as Russia and China. It also borders three other "Stans" of Central Asia: Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan and moreover shares a common soviet "Russian" history with them.

It's size by area makes Kazakhstan the ninth largest country in the world and therefore it naturally is the ideal hub for diverse landscape that starts as lowlands in the west (130 meters or about 430 ft below sea level) and ends by a 7 000 meters (approx. 23000 ft) peak in the south east, called Khan Tengri.

Like many other Kazakhstan landmarks, Khan Tengri is located near Almaty, the major city and former capital of Kazakhstan. It is the most northerly "seven-thousander" as they call in the mountaineering circles. It's a marble rock, shaped like a pyramid. Its correct geometrical shape beautifully reflects the sun in different colours depending on the time of the day. Thus for its sunset red colour it was named the "Kan Tau" ("kan" - blood, and "tau" - mountain) among the Kazakh nomad tribes.

Another one of many Kazakhstan landmarks is the Charyn Canyon. Some call it as the "Grand Canyon" of Kazakhstan or the "little kazakh brother of the Grand Canyon". Although it reminds a smaller version of the famous Colorado landmark, it still has its own beauty and features quite different from its American brother.

The Charyn Canyon is situated about 200 km east of Almaty. It stretches 154 km alongside the Charyn River. The most popular part is called the Valley of Castles for the unusually shaped formations resembling the ancient fortresses. Don't miss the Singing Dunes when you are in Kazakhstan. It's only about 180 km away from Almaty. It's a 3 km sand ridge that produces various notes if the right dry weather conditions are provided.

The Aral Sea is definitely a "can't miss" landmark, especially if you are looking over Kazakhstan on the Google Satellite Map. It's the landmark who has gained a bad reputation due to the incorrect human activities. Once among the first five largest lakes of the world, the Aral Sea lost 90% of its volume within a few decades of incorrect usage of the sea waters to artificially feed the rice and cotton fields.

Kazakhstan wouldn't accept the irreversible fate of the sea and is taking all the possible measures to bring it back to life. If you compare the satellite images of the Aral Sea for the last few years, you can see a significant difference that the measures have made.

One other famous Kazakhstan landmark is the Cosmodrome Baikonur. It's the first and largest space launch site in the world. It was built in 1950's when Kazakhstan was still part of the USSR. Originally it was built for long-range missile centre. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, it still is being used by the Russian Federation under the lease agreement.

Kazakhstan is a country of contrasts in many meanings, either geographically, historically or economically. It's the country in the crossroads of two different cultures of Europe and Asia. It represents both the old and the modern lifestyles. It's within Central Asia, the region that is less travelled.

All the best,

Russia Wins the Fed Cup With an Unexpected Guest in the Sidelines

Russia won its third Fed Cup title in four years the last Sunday, but the team had an unexpected participant. Maria Sharapova, currently with an injured shoulder and who has never played a Fed Cup for Russia before, was cheering up the team from the sidelines, wore the team’s uniform and even celebrated the victory walking with the team around the court, holding a Russian flag.

But her teammates and active players of the Russian team in the Cup put her loyalty and her reasons to be on the tournament to question, as the players that are not available for the Fed Cup can’t play the Olympics.

The world’s number two, Svetlana Kuznetsova said: “I don't know why she came. She said she wanted to help our preparation and be our practice partner but, to me, if you can't play how then can you practice? And then, after Russia’s victory when she was asked for Sharapova’s role as a supporter, replied: “Oh please, don't ask me that question again. I had enough already.”

Despite Sharapova’s absence in the court, Russia showed that they have a very strong team, leaded by Kutnetsova and world’s number five Anna Chakvetadze, who also was very sincere about Sharapova’s presence in the cup: “If you haven't played Fed Cup all year, it wouldn't be fair just to show up for the final," she said. "It's not fair to all the other girls who committed themselves to the team's cause.”

This was going to be Sharapova’s debut in the Fed Cup, but she couldn’t play due to her injury and therefore, both teammates and local media, questioned her arrival to the tournament and said that all was part of her PR campaign and intended to boost her popularity in Russia.

However, team’s captain Shamil Tarpishchev said that he pays no attention to those comments and that the top players always have an ego, but what counts is what they do in the court. “I've always been fair to my players and I always invite the ones who are in better form at the moment,” he said.

Now Sharapova’s task is to convince her teammates that she truly desires to play for Russia.

Russian vine problem please help!!!!!!!?

My russian vine plant seems to be dying from the base upwards, its planted in a large patio planter. it sees direct sunlight til dinner and shade during the afternoon. its been in location for three months, i've fed it a couple of times with miracle grow.......please help.

Russian Vines aren't designed to be grown in pots, if you can move it into the ground it may recover but dying from the roots up sounds like it might be a more serious problem. Try planting it out but beware, if it does survive you'll need to keep control of it, they grow very fast.
