A rune stick with an interesting inscription from Narsaq, Greenland. Runologist Erik Moltke interprets the first line of the inscription as; Á sæ, sæ, sæ es Ása sát; “On the sea, the sea, the sea is the ambush (or dwelling?) of the Æsir”, and a charm for protection at sea. The second line can be read as “bibrau(?) is the name of the maiden who sits on the blue (pond?)”, which may refer to a goddess, perhaps Frigg. Two rune sticks with very similar inscriptions have been found in Bergen, so it must have been a well known charm. One side has the full Younger Futhark, and the other, a series of bindrunes; likely a charm of sorts.

Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. On Telegram’s website, it says that Pavel Durov “supports Telegram financially and ideologically while Nikolai (Duvov)’s input is technological.” Currently, the Telegram team is based in Dubai, having moved around from Berlin, London and Singapore after departing Russia. Meanwhile, the company which owns Telegram is registered in the British Virgin Islands. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. "We're seeing really dramatic moves, and it's all really tied to Ukraine right now, and in a secondary way, in terms of interest rates," Octavio Marenzi, CEO of Opimas, told Yahoo Finance Live on Thursday. "This war in Ukraine is going to give the Fed the ammunition, the cover that it needs, to not raise interest rates too quickly. And I think Jay Powell is a very tepid sort of inflation fighter and he's not going to do as much as he needs to do to get that under control. And this seems like an excuse to kick the can further down the road still and not do too much too soon." Ukrainian forces successfully attacked Russian vehicles in the capital city of Kyiv thanks to a public tip made through the encrypted messaging app Telegram, Ukraine's top law-enforcement agency said on Tuesday.
