ЧТО НОВОГО? /WHAT’S NEW?/Facebook Investor Drives Innovation - 01 September 2009.When Yury Milner goes into talks to buy stakes of Internet companies outside Russia, such as his recent high-profile investment in Facebook, he says he has a tough time proving that his country stands at the industry’s cutting edge. In addition to 3.5 percent of Facebook, the world’s most popular social networking web site, his company has accrued an interest in a Latvian firm developing social networks across Eastern Europe, which suggests he has some convincing evidence in store. “We have to talk about ourselves and spend a lot of time explaining what we do,” Milner, chief executive and co-owner of the closely held Digital Sky Technologies, recently told The Moscow Times in a rare interview. “It is not obvious for many people that Russia may have high-tech expertise, very strong programmers and world-class projects.” Russia has largely been a dark spot on the radars of big Internet companies in the West, and DST’s victory in May after a months-long bidding race to invest in Facebook was dubbed as unlikely by industry watchers.

Gary: No, actually. I don't feel so well! I'm shivering, sneezing and I think I'm even running a temperature. O: Wow! G: I've a sore throat and a bad cough. I think I've caught a cold. O: It means you won't go to Whit-ney Houston show tonight, yeah? G: Oh, no, I wouldn't miss it for anything. O: But first put the thermometer under your tongue. I want to see if you have a fever. G: Oh, thanks for your kindness. But I think Whitney Houston's show'll work wonders and it will help me to recover. You do know that art cures. O: So, there is no better medicine than art for you, is there? ВАРИАЦИИ НА ТЕМУ /MANY AND VARIOUS/OptionOption – is a contract between a buyer and a seller that gives the buyer the right—but not the obligation—to buy or to sell a particular asset (the underlying asset) at a later day at an agreed price.
