Hello World!

Well… I’m going to use this blog to post my articles and comments scattered in all types of mass media, so it’ll serve as a sort of an archive for everything I publish. Follow and comment on what you find useful, if you wish. All content is provided ‘all rites reversed’, i.e., you can freely use everything here without asking for a permission but please do me a favour by mentioning the original author…

Blessings,
Fyodor

Every civilisation in the human history has its unique features and achievements: the Greeks, for instance, are known worldwide for their love of philosophy and sophisticated logics, whereas Africans have introduced the concept of ubuntu and harambeei. If someone asks where the uniqueness of Rome is, the answer will definitely be Law and Order.
