Russians dance salsa!
When I say to foreign people that I am dancing salsa dance, everybody is surprised. I remember two American guys who were laughing laughed for a long time about that it)) Actually I think it seems that salsa is for latinos and it is difficult to imagine salsa dancers in snowy Russia. But we dance! And we do it a lot! (In primarary school we are taught not to start sentences with conjunctions such as and and but. But I don't have a problem with it.)
Salsa is getting more and more popular in Russia. And, and my opinion is that St.Petersburg is the Russian salsa capital )) Here you can dance every day: dDifferent styles, different parties, different music – justyou choose! At weekends you can dance all night till the morning!
From may the open air parties starts in the city. It goesThey take place in thea beautiful place in the city center every Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
There are a lot of really nice dancers in SPb, but (and it’sthis is the most important point) there is a magic dancing atmosphere!
For everyone who is gonnaplanning to visit Saint Petersburg and looking for a place to dance, we created the a special FB group in FB. There you can always find all the information you need about salsa dancing in our city.
We will be very happy to getmeet new friends! Come join us with dancing in St. Petersburg!0 votedFebruary 5, 20144- In the following sentence they are pretty much synonyms. It's quite/rather hot. However, in the sentences below only "rather" is appropriate. I would rather stay inside. I stayed inside rather than went outside in this heat. So, while they are almost synonyms in some contexts, they are not in others. Hope that helps.0 votedFebruary 4, 20140
Theodor Dreiser's Writing Harms Teenagers
A (maybe The if there is only one librarian who works at Omsk public Library) librarian in the Omsk Public Library refused to loan Theodor Dreiser's "The Financier" to a 16 year old girl (http://lenta.ru/news/2014/02/04/danger/ and http://omskinform.ru/news/63024?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter). Motivation for that strange decision was "age restrictions". I don't know why, in the eyes of Omsk's "cultural" figures, Theodor Dreiser and Sasha Grey are phenomenons on the same level. For those who don't know Russian, there is a common saying: "we have sailed up, this is a white Polar fox".
[Sorry I forgot to highlight changes. Your writing is pretty good, but your use of prepositions needs a little work. I'd love to hear some further explanation of the Russian idiom as I'm not entirely sure what you meant.]
