Swiss

The
2014 revolution brought Kiev nightlife to a complete standstill. As
protests turned into riots, and government security forces opened fire
on protestors, the country fell into crisis. But out of the ashes of
revolution has risen a new generation. Slava Lepsheev, who’d lost his
job because of the financial crisis triggered by the war, had had
enough, and started Cxema, a raw, hard and hypnotic techno rave that he
took to whatever semi-legal venue he could set a soundsystem up in. So
together with Slava, and the city’s brightest young lights, we followed
young Kiev as they prepared for a night at Cxema, from building the
venue to watching the sunrise break.

Earlier
in Obama’s presidency, he offered to cut social security. Now, in a
dramatic reversal, he’s saying we should expand the program. Why? Cenk
Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think
in the comment section below.
"PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA endorsed an expansion of Social Security for the first time on Wednesday.
“We
can’t afford to weaken Social Security,” he said during a speech on
economic policy in Elkhart, Indiana. “We should be strengthening Social
Security. And not only do we need to strengthen its long-term health,

This
was a far cry from Obama’s position on the program in late 2012, when
his administration argued for reducing Social Security benefits by
recalculating the way cost of living adjustments are made.”*
Ukraine's
president Petro Poroshenko said on Friday the leaders of France,
Germany, Russia and Ukraine -- the "Normandy Quartet" -- have agreed on
