Know Your Yogi: and We Don’t Mean the Bear

The goal of yoga is simple: to set us free from the cage of matter that composes our body and mind. And as the mind is said to be the highest form of matter, by freeing one’s self from its physical traps, we can attain nirvana. In short, yoga offers us a way to escape our own limitations and transcend all that is mortal. But it’s also just a darn good workout, a great stress reliever and one of the untold secrets to living a longer, healthier life.

What’s On caught up with her during what’s been a tough preparatory schedule for Ms. Stefanko. On the Sofa for a chat, we endeavoured to find out a bit more about this charming young hopeful!

Whats Up? Soldier Shot Dead for Watching TV on Duty
Thursday, 21 September 2006
A Ukrainian army officer faces jail having shot a hapless soldier in the head for watching television at the wrong time of day. The unfortunate private took time out from guarding a chemical plant in Poltava region to catch a show, unbeknown that an officer was lurking in the shadows, pistol cocked, and evidently in a remarkably bad mood.

Whats Up? Dynamo Could Host Liverpool Israeli Clash
Thursday, 21 September 2006
Self-styled giants of Europe Liverpool could be coming to Kyiv to play their third round Champions League tie with Maccabi Haifa after UEFA expressed security concerns because of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. A statement read: "Uefa has decided no European competition matches can be staged in Israel until further notice." The tie, which will be staged on 23 August, could be played at Dynamo Kyiv's stadium after the club's president gave permission. Dynamo supremo Igor Surkis told The Times last week: "I was approached by people from the Israeli club and also Israel's ambassador in Ukraine, who asked if it was possible to play the game here.

Editorial editorial30_2006
Thursday, 21 September 2006
№.30/2006
Over these past seven years I've been lucky enough to cover some of the most exciting events in Ukrainian history, including everything from rigged elections and revolutions to the ups and downs of the Ukrainian football team. Throughout it all I have often been struck by the startling number of characteristics that Post-Soviet Ukraine shares with the ill-fated Weimar Republic of inter-war Germany. First and foremost there's the proliferation of the devil may care, short-term attitudes that instruct so much of Kyiv life, helping to infuse the society scene with a highly hedonistic quality and encourage the growth of an exciting experimental arts and musical scene. Then there's the plethora of political parties seemingly coming and going, with members flitting from one to the other seemingly at will. We also have a wealthy and influential Jewish community and gutter level anti-Semitism. And then there's hyper inflation and the widely held belief that the country is corrupt and in need of a strong leader. I'd even swap you a Moroz for a von Papen, but that might be getting a little too carried away. After all, however depressing it may be to see the disgraced big man, Viktor Yanukovich, bounding back into power with his cronies, this is not 1933 and the parrallels are not so exact. Unfortunately one side effect of this latest political disappointment could be a significant boost for nationalist extremism. Far right groups have been bubbling under the surface for years in Post-Soviet Ukraine - viewed as fringe fanatics by the powers that be, much as they were in Weimar, and this current climate of perceived national betrayal is fertile ground indeed. As I look at those Swastika-style nationalist flags still flying on Maidan I can't help wondering just what sort of Ukraine these protesters are ready to fight for. It is certainly not the kind of country millions envisaged when they took to the streets in 2004, and with all eyes on the return of the old guard it is worth noting that there are plenty of other evils which could also pose a threat to Ukraine’s fledgling party politics.

On the Sofa with... Miss Ukraine Tsaritsa turned Comedy - Lilya Kuznetsova
Thursday, 21 September 2006
Well-known Kyiv beauty Lilya is best known as the face behind the Miss Ukraine beauty franchise, but while she is most readily associated with preening princesses and forced barbie doll smiles, the Kyivlanka is currently displaying an unexpected sense of humour and irony as the husband-hunting star of new 1+1 comedy 'Let's Get Married'.

Kyiv Culture

A Sign from the SKAY

There is much that is wrong with Ukrainian show business today: there is an abundance of talentless pop on stages everywhere, there seems to be a never-ending infiltration of sex and scandals, and parties have replaced performances where stars used to pay their dues. With the yin, however, also comes the yang, and, while not often, the heavens open up and give us a sign. That sign is on the cover of a brand new album.

Ukraine Today

Read What’s On – Be Healthy!

With the arrival of the New Year, it stands to reason that the best way to start off is to reinvigorate one’s health and vitality. As ever, What’s On endeavours to promote healthy lifestyles (ahem) and the same goes for 2011. We poo-poo those who say they are too busy or the pace of life too fast to bother with eating right or doing some exercise. As Bill Clinton would say, “It’s your health, stupid!” Cut the lame excuses! Shake up your routine like the guy at the health bar shakes up energy drinks by taking advantage of one (or more) of the following yet simple health ideas found below.
