''Moskovskiye Novosti'' (russian: Московские новости, ''Moscow News'') was a Russian-language daily newspaper in Russia relaunched in 2011. The paper - by then a 'youth-oriented' free sheet handed out at more than 850 places around Moscow - on 23 January 2014 announced that it would cease publication on 1 February that year. It had been a long-established weekly newspaper aimed at an educated, elite audience. Between 2005 and 2008 it was owned by Arcadi Gaydamak.

Bayan (accordion)
The bayan ( rus, бая́н, p=bɐˈjan) is a type of chromatic button accordion developed in the Russian Empire in the early 20th century and named after the 11th-century bard Boyan. Characteristics The bayan differs from western chromatic button accordions in some details of construction: * Reeds are broader and rectangular (rather than trapezoidal). * Reeds are often attached in large groups to a common plate (rather than in pairs); the plates are screwed to the reed block (rather than attached with wax). * The melody-side keyboard is attached near the middle of the body (rather than at the rear). * Reeds are generally not tuned with tremolo. * Register switches may be operated with the chin on some larger models (also possible with some larger European button accordions). * The diminished chord row is shifted, so that the diminished G chord is where one would expect the diminished C chord in the Stradella bass system. * Converter switches that go from standard preset c ...
