Spoons of Victory

Do you remember the African Vuvuzelas from the 2010 World Cup? Well, Russia is no worse than RPA, they also have their special instrument for this occasion. 'Spoons of Victory': their shape resembles the letter 'V' like 'Victory' that they are about to achieve. The instrument was invented by Rustam Nugmanov and is supposed to help tapping the rhythm of the songs without causing as much rumour as Vuzuelas. The 'Spoons' are made entirely out of the wood and look more like a kitchen supplies than something that imitates the sound. Fans can bring them to the match and if they don't own one, it can be purchased at the venue. Do you think they'll repeat the success of Vuzuelas?

Must read

Hi, guys! How's life? What have you been up to? If you by any chance found out how to be a productive person, please make sure to let me know, cause I'm still having difficulties with adopting to the fact that the academic year has officially begun. I, personally, have spent most of my summer reading crime stories and I just must admit that there's one, in particular, I enjoyed. Have you ever heard the name A.J. Finn? No? OK, so you have to change it, cause I can assure you, it'd be worth it. The book is called The Woman in the window . Anna Fox, the main protagonist, is a middle-aged woman, living on her own in the beautiful house in the suburbs. She spends most of her days drinking wine and watching people. Yes, she's literally spying on her neighbours. And there wouldn't be anything interesting about that, were it not for the discovery she's about to make. The key word in describing this book would be: the truth. While reading it, we have the...

Larry the bird

We all know what Twitter is and most of us either used or uses it. We all associate the little blue bird in the logo but does everyone know that it has a name? Cause it has and its name is Larry. The little guy may have been named after former NBA player, Larry Bird, who played for Twitter co-founder Biz Stone’s home-state team, the Boston Celtics. Larry’s name was confirmed by Twitter in a tweet made in 2011. Moreover the social networking company’s former creative director, Doug Bowman, said in a 2012 announcement that Larry is resembling a mountain bluebird with a dash of hummingbird thrown in and that the Twitter bird has a beak and body that point toward the sky in what Bowman called “the ultimate representation of freedom, hope and limitless possibility.”
