Immortality. This group is dedicated towards raising awareness about emerging technologies that have the potential to contribute positively to the human lifespan. We are finally approaching a point where we can more effectively negotiate our terms with death.
...we are on the verge of transcending our biological constraints and finally defeating death.
Throughout human history our species has attempted to grapple with death by trying to understand it, by trying to predict it, and by trying to defeat it... Over the last fifteen thousand years, the communities humanity has built upon the Earth have changed dramatically. We have moved from being a hunter & gatherer-based species, to essentially maintaining globalized civilization capable of sending machines millions of kilometers deep into space to chunks of rock virgin to the hands of humanity...
As our species first began to develop and refine language and began to construct relatively large communities, they also tried to explain and rationalize why death occurs, and how they might be able to prevent it... However, as our ancient fore-bearers lacked deep naturalistic understanding of their environment, little progress was made toward dealing with death. Gods and rituals were used to place a handle on death, it provided simplistic explanations and methods for displaying grief and respect... but this was still inadequate.
Over the past 300 years, as our species finally harnessed the power of electricity, and started on its path toward understanding its own construction, we have made great leaps in our understanding of our environment, and ourselves. We have reached a stage in our development where it is beginning to look as if we may be able to slow or even prevent the damaging effects of aging at a cellular level, and it seems that we are rapidly approaching a point where we will finally break free from our biological constraints.
The word Immortality has always had a connotation of mysticism and magic attached to it, and since there has so far been no alternative to death, it has been seen as a fantasy to distract us from its inevitability... but we must realize that with each scientific discovery, it provides a stepping stone towards the next, and that combined with our powers of abstract reasoning, our innate curiosity, and our relentless determination, we can dismount this word from the web of fiction it is currently entangled in, and bring it into the scientific realm.
In short, we are on the verge of a transformation, our scientific understanding of the mechanics of the universe has been increasing exponentially... in the coming decades as the fields of Bioengineering, Genetics, Nano-scale Technology, and Computing mature, we will begin to see a change in the meaning of life and death. We now have the ability to construct artificial hearts, we have utterly decimated entire viral species with our vaccines, we can control mechanical appendages with our minds, and cloning technology is maturing to the point where personalized organs can be and will be cloned when needed (which essentially means the end of death via organ failure... at least mostly)... so, as we progress we must maintain a strong sense of caution, but above all, we must remain open to the possibility of transcending our biological longevity limits... Possibly living as long as you wish.
We can already see the tell-tale signs of this happening, and given an semi-optimistic estimate... we can expect to see some pretty amazing changes to the human life-span within the next 25 years, and if you try your best to take care of your body in concert with these emerging technologies, you can expect to live well past 2100 A.D.

Yes-club. We are happy to invite you to our English-speaking club!
YES-club is unity in diversity.
Our mission is to unite and develop through learning and understanding each other
We call it YES-Club and it's an abbreviation of our Youth English Section, which means the following:
Yes, we are young, creative and active;
Yes, we are learning the world by learning people;
Yes, we are free from stereotypes and open for everything new;
Yes, we are world citizens and think globally;
Yes, we are sharing our ideas with other and try to make our society better.
And now what we do?
First of all, we hold regular Round Table Discussions, where a lot of interesting people come to join us. We consider them to be our friends. They can be either native speakers of English or great learners from different countries and cultures. In our club they present their organizations and share their views and opinions.
Secondly, we hold monthly Debates with a help of professionals, using Parliamentary formant. We argue about different issues - economic, political, cultural, we learn to think logically and to stand self's point of view.
Thirdly, we were born under the protection of newspaper Pervoye Sentyabrya and its supplementary issue English. So we write articles about everything that bothers us, we share our impressions and ideas after each YES- meeting, and all our thoughts are published in our YES-Page in newspaper English.
And in the end, we like to celebrate holidays - American, English, and Irish you all know what is Halloween, Christmas, maybe you've heard about St. Patrick's Day, probably you make valentines for the 14th of February. Join us; let's celebrate them together!

Канг Ли / Cung Le. Канг Ли появился на свет 25 мая 1972 года в Сайгоне, Вьетнам. В 1975 году мать Энн сбежала с сыном из страны, спасаясь от наступающей северо-вьетнамской армии. Оказавшись в Сан-Хосе Канг Ли стал мишенью для нападок на националистической почве, это подтолкнуло его к занятию БИ. В возрасте десяти лет мать записала Ли в секцию таеквондо. Посмотрев в 14 лет фильм с участием Сильвестра Сталлоне «Рокки» Канг увлекся борьбой. На этом поприще он достиг не малых высот, выиграв первенство штата в весе до 158 фунтов в 1990 году.
Следующий этап жизни Канг Ли связан с саньшоу (саньда, карате). Канг трижды выигрывал турнир US Open по БИ в 1994, 1995 и 1996 годах. В его активе две бронзовые медали чемпионата по саньшоу. 15 декабря 2001 года одержав победу над Шони Картером Ли завоевал чемпионский титул по по саньшоу (версия IKF). Также в мае 2003 года Канг вступал в k -1, все три боя он закончил победой.
Дебют Канг Ли в MMA состоялся на шоу Strikeforce «Shamrock vs. Gracie» 10 марта 2006 года. В своем первом бою Ли нокаутировал давнего соперника Майка Алтмана. Три месяца спустя Канг нокаутировал Браяна Варена. На турнире Strikeforce: «Triple Threat» Канг Ли победил ветерана UFC Джэйсона вон Флю. Следующим Ли нокаутировал Тони Фрикланда. На шоу Strikeforce : « Four Men Enter , One Man Survives » Канг одолел очередного UFC ветерана Сэмми Моргана. 29 марта 2008 года Канг Ли победил легенду UFC Фрэнка Шемрока, тем самым завоевав чемпионский пояс Strikeforce в среднем весе.
После этого боя последовала пауза, Канг Ли сосредоточился на карьере в в киноиндустрии (на счету Ли киноактера такие фильмы как Tekken, Пандорум, Fighting, Телохранители и убийцы и Глаза дракона). 19 декабря 2009 года на Strikeforce: «Evolution» Канг проиграл нокаутом Скотту Смиту, это был первый проигрыш в MMA . После боя Ли настаивал на матче реванше. Этот бой состоялся спустя полгода на Strikeforce: «Fedor vs. Werdum». Канг Ли нокаутировал Смита во втором раунде.
