get a load of those Yatchenkos....

You may not know them now, but you will.

My bro-in-law Artour, who owns a tour company focused on Russia/Eurasia, quoted in the Washington Post and the San Francisco Chronicle.

If I may quote: "Public transportation in Moscow is one of the best in the world," said Sokol's Artour Yatchenko, "but as soon as you're out in the countryside, it's babushkas and old buses."

Babushkas and old buses, baby. Sokol Tours. Get involved.

And, my niece, Artour's daughter Sasha, showing what she can do on YouTube. Jump on this bandwagon now, before she's taking top prize on this American Idol thing I keep hearing about She already won the title in her hometown of Hopkinton MA, as noted in the Boston Globe.
Oh, and in case you were wondering, she is thirteen, and she does write her own music.

Ladies and Gentleman, the Yatchenko's. Recognize.
