It's Portuguese for brand new. Actually, literally speaking, it's 'nova' the common latinate word for 'new', with the -inho suffix, meaning small/young. So both beurette and novinha are diminutive feminine forms.

I've seen lots of Russian stuff with the word nova, I tend to associate it with the soviet space program.

It probably just means "new" in Russian in those contexts too. I'm looking around but can't find any references to the Russian space program that use "nova" as a keyword, got any examples?

So, looks like iraq will be joining a somewhat beginning of alliance with russia, syria and iran on fight against isis, at least in limiting form at the moment.

'beurette' is an attractive arab girl from North Africa
Do not use Google Images on that term. There's a horrible duckface picture there.

And also lots of naked beurettes, in case you mind that.

Stop, seriously, you had me at snotflinger.

The only Novaya I can find is the island Novaya Zemyla the tsar bombs was detonated over, I think maybe I read some fiction somewhere that used that name for a colony, I may also be thinking of Zvesda the soviet moonbase. And lastly I'm sure I read about a program by Khrushchev using that name for development of arable land in Central Asia.
Edit: the program was called Osvoenie Tseliny "Virgin lands"

Which is completely insane. We already hosted the highest number of refugees in Europe, we were already pushing our furthest to help people in a time when we need to help those who are already here (which are foremost immigrants that have come before). To just keep letting people in just because they are refugees is completely irresponsible. I've honestly never been so worried about the future before. This is beyond any kind of sense.
