What an opportunity for her to make a sequel to "Citizenfour". Something like "Russian Citizenfour". Lots of opportunities to reflect on how Ed took her for a ride with his BS and now serving Putin. In "Risk" s

Why Elon insists on actually running a company? He should hire competent people and stick to PR/bullshit thing. It works wonders in his other ventures, mostly. And no, competent doesn't mean Kimbal.

>Modern scholars believe Believe indeed. The origins are murky and it is not clear who was first in formulating the variant on which the modern Cyrillic script based. The script of Upir Оfeigr is surprisingly close to what in use today.
