В 1967 г. Гаэ Ауленти создала такой настольный светильник, который впоследствии выпускали компании «Candle» и, конечно, «FontanaArte». Когда Ауленти привезла прототип этой лампы в Нью-Йорк во время одного из своих визитов, связанных с оформлением магазинов «Knoll», Бобби Кэдуолладер, тогдашний президент «Knoll», отказался запускать светильник в производство, сказав, что он не соответствует эстетике компании. Тогда Ауленти сказала, что не потащит этот груз обратно в Милан, и оставила светильник у Кэдуолладера.

In 1967, Gae Aulenti created this desk lamp that would later be available from Candle and, of course, FontanaArte. On one of her trips to New York, where she was working on showroom designs for Knoll, she showed the prototype of this lamp to Bobby Cadwallader, the then president of Knoll. Cadwallader refused to put this model into production as he thought this was not a lamp for Knoll. Aulenti said that she would not tug the prototype all the way back to Milan and left it with Cadwallader.

Telegram | DID YOU KNOW?

Date: |

Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” READ MORE At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised. The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych. That hurt tech stocks. For the past few weeks, the 10-year yield has traded between 1.72% and 2%, as traders moved into the bond for safety when Russia headlines were ugly—and out of it when headlines improved. Now, the yield is touching its pandemic-era high. If the yield breaks above that level, that could signal that it’s on a sustainable path higher. Higher long-dated bond yields make future profits less valuable—and many tech companies are valued on the basis of profits forecast for many years in the future.
