A wave of copycat suicides in which teenagers jump to their deaths from high buildings is causing alarm and debate in Russia.
The latest victim, Elina Ponomareva, 14, died on Wednesday after flinging herself from her bedroom window in a ten-storey block in northern Moscow following an argument with her parents. A day earlier, Yuliana Shekova, also 14, perished when she leapt from an apartment in the west of the city.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
