Translation - from Google to real English... "to bake" - huh?

Here's a partial transcript of a YouTube video.

02:03 если посмотреть в интернете что пишут
02:07 люди о владивостоке на форумах то сразу
02:12 можно увидеть город этот очень
02:15 противоречивый кто-то его обожает печь
02:19 или очень любит кто-то его ненавидит то
02:22 есть очень очень не любит кто-то пишет
02:26 что отсюда все уезжают а другой человек
02:29 ему отвечает что это неправда

In working out what this means in English, I got through most of it then went to check it against Google translates English translation....which came out:

02:03 if you look on the Internet that they write
02:07 people about Vladivostok on the forums immediately
02:12 you can see this very city
02:15 controversial someone loves him to bake
02:19 or someone really loves him hates something
02:22 there is very very much someone does not like writing
02:26 that everybody leaves here and the other person
02:29 he replies that this is not true

Okay. I got lost at
02:!5 "...to bake"???
I'm guessing that this whole thing works out to something along the lines of:
If you look around the Internet, you can see this city is very controversial. Someone will say he loves it or (and) someone else will say that he hates the city. Someone (else) will say that everyone leaves here and another person will reply that that's not true.

The first part of the 02:22 line doesn't make "translation sense" to me.

A little help?

Где ему быть? vs Где он? Why is the first "more native" than the second? Don't they translate to the same meaning?

Russian websites for beginner reading

Does anyone have favorite websites for beginners learning to read at a mid-A2 to low-B1 level?

Could be on any subject...

I'm basically looking for texts to plug into LWT to learn how to best use that program.

Thanks.

Word order... city, country or country, city? In the book "We Begin to read in Russian", Kurlova IV, the author writes this example: Завтра утром Анна летит в Италию, в Милан. My question has to do with "в Италию, в Милан". In English, we'd write or say, "to Milan, Italy". Is the Russian word order "normal" as written here?

What is the difference between вводить and входить? I can't find a (significant) difference in my dictionary(ies). When would you use one and when the other? @Natasha - Yeah, I guess context is missing in my question. I'm referring to the meaning or "to enter". For example, context-reverso has these sentences: Можно также вводить пробелы и другой фиксированный текст. Нельзя входить к девушке в комнату без её разрешения. In this case, context-reverso hasn't helped me at all with my question. They "register" as examples for me, not explanations regarding correctness, frequency of use or anything else. They are merely presented as "correct". I was and am still confused. Could the other verb be used here without changing the meaning? Which would be more "normal"?

Is there a List of high-quality sources of regular audio/video input for Russian learners

The question is based on looking at Tom's List (high-quality sources of regular audio/video input for English learners) http://www.antimoon.com/blog/2011/06/toms-list/

Not being familiar with Russian TV series and films, I'm open to suggestions for an equivalent list for lower level Russian learners.

Power bank? In this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-T7u07-nF4Q Max uses a couple words that don't seem to translate according to dictionaries or online translators. Power Bank - (at about 9:11 mark) - no clue how "power" would be spelled in Russian. "Bank" is obvious. Charger - (about 9:19) -I'm guessing чарджер would be the correct spelling. Phonically, he uses (near?) cognates. Is this "current" and what is in the dictionaries is now considered "old" and superceded by the new words? And how would "power" be spelled in Russian as he uses that word?

I have eaten -vs- I had eaten I am trying to determine if there is a distinction in Russian between these two. I have eaten the apple. I had eaten the apple. The best I can come up with is: я съел яблоко for both of them, Is there a distinction in Russian or is it an English distinction without a (significant) difference in Russian?
