Alexander Yuryevich "Sasha" Pichushkin (Алекса́ндр Ю́рьевич Пичу́шкин, born 9 Aprile 1974 in Mytishchi, Moscow Oblast), kent as The Chessbuird Killer an The Bitsa Park Maniac an aw, is a Roushie serial killer. He is believit tae hae killed at least 49 fowk an up tae 61–63 fowk in soothwast Moscow's Bitsa Park, whare several o the victims' bodies wur foond.
Murthers
Pichushkin committit his first murther as a student in 1992 an steppit up his creemes in 2001. Roushie media hae speculatit that Pichushkin mey hae been motivatit bi a macabre competeetion wi Roushie's maist notorious serial killer, Andrei Chikatilo, who wis convictit in 1992 o killin 53 childer an young weemen in 12 years. Pichushkin haes said his aim wis tae kill 64 fowk, the nummer o squares on a chessbuird. He later recantit this statement, sayin that he wad hae continued killin indefinitely if he haed no been stoppit.
Pichushkin primarily targetit elderly hameless men bi lurin them wi vodka. efter drinkin wi them, he wad kill them, hittin them on the heid wi a hammer. He then stuck vodka bottles in thair skulls tae ensur that thay did no survive. He targetit younger men, childer an weemen an aw. He wad aaways attack frae ahint tae avoid spillin bluid on his claes. He claimit that while killin fowk he felt lik God as he decidit whether his victims shoud live or dee. "In aw cases A killed for anerlie ane raison. A killed in order tae live, acause when you kill, you want tae live," he ance said. "For me, life athoot murther is like life athoot fuid for you. A felt like the faither o aw these fowk, syne it wis A who opened the door for them tae anither warld." Experts at the Serbsky Institute, Roushie's main psychiatric clinic, hae fuid Pichushkin sane.
Accordin tae the documentary, "Serial Killers", Pichushkin, ance apprehendit, led polis officers tae the scenes o mony o his creemes in Bitsa Park. He demonstratit a keen recollection o hou the murthers wur committit, aften actin them oot in great detail, which haes been committit tae film. He revealed that a nummer o the murthers he committit wur no done in his preferred method (hammer blows tae the back o the heid) an aw, but bi throwin his victims doun intae the sewers unberneath Bitsa Pairk (awtho ane o his victims did survive the ordeal).
The murther o Marina Moskalyova, 36, in the simmer o 2006, wis his last. When a metro ticket wis foond in her possession at the time her body wis foond, authorities wur able tae view the last fuitage o her alive frae surveillance tapes o the Moscow metro seestem, whare she wis walkin on the platform accompaniet bi Pichushkin.
Trial an impreesonment
He wis arrestit on 15 Juin 2006, an convictit on 24 October 2007 o 49 murthers an three attemptit murthers. He asked a Roushie court tae add an additional 11 victims tae his body coont, bringin his claimit daith toll tae 60 an 3 survivin victims. Durin the trial, he wis hoosed in a gless cage.

The existence an practice o customs an tradeetions that wur ance thocht tae be exclusive to Yalálag, but that hae nou permeatit American society, demonstrates the transnaitional character o Yalaltecos indigeneity that maks possible the process o Hayandose throu the seizur an declaration o these ethnically-markit spaces. Yalaltecos livin in Los Angeles hae invokit their cultural identity hunders o miles frae hame an hae uised it as a tuil tae resist the push for assimilation an marginalization athin the Unitit States. Tharefore, the transmission an continuity o cultur athort naitional borders are essential for Yalaltecos tae mark their awn space an ultimately fynd thairsels in a hostile environs far frae their hame kintra.

Nova
Causes o the dramatic appearance o a nova vary, dependin on the circumstances o the twa progenitor stars. Aw observed novae involve closely locatit binar starns (the progenitors), aither a pair o reid dwarfs in the process o mergin, or a white dwarf an anither starn.
The main sub-clesses o novae are clessical novae, recurrent novae (RNe), an dwarf novae. Thay are aw conseedert tae be cataclysmic variable starns. Luminous reid novae share the name an are an aw cataclysmic variables, but are a different teep o event caused bi a stellar merger. An aw wi seemilar names are the muckle mair energetic supernovae (SNe) an kilonovae.
Clessical nova eruptions are the maist common teep o nova. Thay are likely creatit in a close binar starn seestem consistin o a white dwarf an aither a main sequence, sub-giant, or reid giant starn. Whan the orbital period faws in the range o several days tae ane day, the white dwarf is close eneuch tae its companion starn tae start drawin accretit matter ontae the surface o the white dwarf, that creates a dense but shallae atmosphere. This atmosphere is maistly hydrogen an is thermally heatit bi the het white dwarf, that eventually reaches a creetical temperatur causin rapid runawey igneetion bi fusion.
Frae the dramatic an sudden energies creatit, the nou hydrogen-birnt atmosphere is then dramatically expelled intae interstellar space, an its brichtened envelope is seen as the veesible licht creatit frae the nova event, an previously wis mistaken as a "new" starn. A few novae produce short-leeved nova remnants, lastin for meyhaps several centuries. Recurrent nova processes are the same as the clessical nova, except that the fusion igneetion mey be repetitive acause the companion starn can again feed the dense atmosphere o the white dwarf.
Novae maist eften occur in the sky alang the path o the Milky Wey, especially near the observed galactic centre in Sagittarius; houiver, they can appear onywhaur in the sky. Thay occur faur mair frequently than galactic supernovae, averagin aboot ten per year. Maist are foond telescopically, aiblins anerly ane ivery year tae aichteen months reachin nakit-ee veesibility. Novae reachin first or seicont magnitude occur anerly several times per century. The last bricht nova wis V1369 Centauri reaching 3.3 magnitude on 14 December 2013.
