![]() They justified interventions in the domestic affairs of neighbouring countries by the pretext that they were protecting Orthodox believers. The Moscow tsars styled themselves as the protectors of the Orthodox faith. Photo credit: Nick Grapsy/ Wikimedia Commons (CC BY-SA 4.0) he Vydubickiy Monastery in Kyiv was established in the late 11th century during the time of the Kyivan Rus. From that point, Ivan III not only called himself grand prince but also tsar, deriving from “Caesar”, the title used by the Roman and later Byzantine emperors. Ivan III (1440-1505), his son Vasily III (1478-1533) and his grandson Ivan IV, known as Ivan the Terrible (1530-1584) were the most successful gatherers of the land of the Rus in its initial phase, annexing the lands of rival Rus princes in the north and northeast.Īfter the conquest of Constantinople by the Ottoman army in 1453, Moscow’s religious leaders argued that a transfer of the Byzantine empire had taken place: Moscow was now the third Rome and the capital of Christendom. And Ivan and his successors subsequently used this title to claim all the lands of the Rus including those under Lithuanian and Polish rule as their patrimony. Ozbeg awarded Ivan the title of grand prince, as rulers of Kyiv were traditionally known. Later, Prince Ivan I of Moscow (circa 1288-1340), known as Kalita (the moneybag), was the tax collector for Sultan Ozbeg, the khan of the Golden Horde. The first historical mention of Moscow is in a chronicle from 1147. Meanwhile, the northern and northeastern parts were cut off from developments in Europe for 200 years. The western and south-western parts, which constitute most of the territory of today’s Ukraine and Belarus, was divided between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland. With the arrival of Mongol troops in the mid-13th century, the land of the Kyivan Rus was broken up. ![]() By contrast, the neighbouring peoples – the Poles and the Lithuanians – took their Christianity from Rome. It created what he calls a “common spiritual space”, an Orthodox Russian space distinct from the Latin, Roman Catholic world. Putin refers to this event as a “ civilisational choice” that shaped the future of Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians. In 988, Grand Prince Volodymyr of Kyiv adopted Christianity from Byzantium, not Rome, and the Rus – now a term also applied to the land – became part of the Orthodox Christian world. The Principality of Kyiv was founded on the location of contemporary Kyiv in the 9th century by Viking warrior-traders from Scandinavia (also called Varangians or Rus) who mixed with the local east Slavic population. Others have simply used the idea to justify Russia’s hegemonic ambitions. Throughout history, there have been Russian rulers who have believed in their mission to “gather the Russian lands”, the land of the Rus. The word refers to the land of a people called Rus: the common ancestors of today’s Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians. The word “Rus” derives from the old east Slavic word Роусь (which reads as “Rous’” when you convert from Cyrillic into Roman letters). These are not Russian lands but the “lands of the Rus”. Ukrainians, meanwhile, refer to the same place as the Kyivan Rus and the cradle of their own nation. And he believes his mission is to restore the unity of the Russian lands, as a precondition for Russia being a great power. To his mind, this means the Ukrainian people are Russian. He sees this Orthodox medieval state which centred around the contemporary Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, as the common point of origin for both Ukrainians and Russians. To justify his designs on Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly referred to what Russians call the Kievan Rus.

Immediately following the Collapse, a new Dark Age began. These individuals were known as Risen - the first Guardians. These Ghosts resurrected fallen members of humanity's civilization throughout the system, wiping out all of their past memories but imbuing them with the power of the Traveler's Light energy. This caused great damage to the Traveler, which released thousands of small sapient machines called Ghosts before falling into a comatose-like state. When all hope seemed lost, however, the Traveler released a massive pulse of energy that forced the Darkness back to the edge of the Solar System, saving us from total downfall. The Golden Age ended, and the Collapse began. Even with the Traveler's empowerment, we couldn't stop the Darkness' Black Fleet of "Pyramid" ships from pushing us to the brink of extinction. Eventually, the Darkness, another force directly opposing the Traveler, found us and attacked. However, this period of glory and grandeur didn't last. During the Golden Age, humanity rapidly spread throughout the Solar System, colonizing and terraforming moons and planets while tripling our lifespan thanks to a surge of medical and technological advancement. Our civilization entered a period of incredible prosperity called the Golden Age as a direct result. The Destiny universe begins in the present day when humanity discovers the Traveler, a mysterious paracausal entity that travels the universe and empowers civilizations it considers worthy against invading forces.

So it is then up to animals the size of apples, and a seagull, to team up across town to help Big Friend out. Of course you do this by collecting snacks, skating in circles, and shooting off fireworks in the middle of crowded town areas! It’s nice to have your pets, and your pets’ friends on your side. In SkateBird, you take control of a helpful skating bird that you design. You’ll make it look as ridiculous and strange as you wish it to look with hats, glasses, belts, rings, and its very own board. The ‘helpful’ part comes in as you move around each area on your skateboard and take random birds’ requests. Big Friend, Big Help How did all these birds get in here…?

Production of red blood cells is controlled by erythropoietin, a hormone produced primarily by the kidneys. The shape of a red blood cell is a biconcave disk with a flattened center - in other words, both faces of the disc have shallow bowl-like indentations (a red blood cell looks like a donut). Known for their bright red color, red cells are the most abundant cell in the blood, accounting for about 40 to 45 percent of its volume. Red Blood Cells (also called erythrocytes or RBCs) ![]() The main job of the plasma is to transport blood cells throughout your body along with nutrients, waste products, antibodies, clotting proteins, chemical messengers such as hormones, and proteins that help maintain the body's fluid balance. The liquid component of blood is called plasma, a mixture of water, sugar, fat, protein, and salts. If you or someone you care about is diagnosed with a blood disorder, your primary care physician may refer you to a hematologist for further testing and treatment. Doctors who specialize in hematology (hematologists) are leading the many advances being made in the treatment and prevention of blood diseases. Many people have undergone blood tests or donated blood, but hematology - the study of blood - encompasses much more than this. The Components of Blood and Their Importance An average-sized man has about 12 pints of blood in his body, and an average-sized woman has about nine pints. About 7 to 8 percent of your total body weight is blood. The blood that runs through the veins, arteries, and capillaries is known as whole blood, a mixture of about 55 percent plasma and 45 percent blood cells.

![]() Molnar and Eisen created one of Australia’s most impressive businesses. Given Square/Block’s trajectory, the near certainty that the US Federal Reserve will increase interest rates and general popping of the tech bubble, it’s likely the value of the combined entity will continue to fall, with Afterpay’s eventual value potentially dropping well below $10 billion.īut don’t confuse speculator irrationality with good management. Other BNPL businesses have also seen their share prices hit since August: Zip (down 41%) Openpay (down 39%) Splitit (down 46%). Had the bubble stayed inflated a few more months they would have collected more than $2.5 billion each, with neither appearing to have escrow restrictions. The share price fall was the result of the tech sector in the United States (and to an extent Australia) falling from its bubble-level highs ( which was always an inevitability). If anything, it shows just how smart Molnar and Eisen were in selling to Square/Block last August. He remained confident that Zip could hold its ’“net transaction margin”, the key earnings driver (revenue from retailers and customer fees minus the cost of debt funding and bad debts).You'll also receive messages on behalf of our partners. We have had to pause, to reflect and change course accordingly.” “We are long-term owners and long-term operators of the business, but certainly, we feel the pain with our shareholders, particularly retail shareholders, and staff who are also shareholders. “It looks violent and vicious but as leaders of the business we do have to look around us, to what is happening the with the stock and change course accordingly,” he said. With many Zip staff paid in shares and with scrip used to finance its global expansion, Mr Diamond said it had been tough on morale. Mr Diamond said he was confident of hitting the promised synergies. He said the two companies had been in discussions since last July, well before markets started panicking. Sezzle’s Mr Youakim said the deal was all about getting more scale, to allow it to sign up more retailers. One banker said this smacked of desperation, while Macquarie described the deal as “merger out of necessity rather than one to create long-term shareholder value”. “We have to be able to demonstrate to the market an ability to move up and down within tolerance levels through the credit cycles,” Mr Diamond said.Īnalysts and investors have questioned the logic of the deal, after Zip raised equity at a discount to buy Sezzle at a premium. As a result of what we are seeing in the US and Australia, we have adjusted approval levels and limits for existing customers - we have taken the decisive action.” Moving through credit cyclesīuy now, pay later sceptics say it is a new sector that had not proven itself through a full economic cycle. ![]() “We did that at the onset of COVID in 2020, adjusting the portfolio to respond to changing conditions in real time to restrict first-time customer volume. “We have tempered growth expectations, so we can improve our bad debt figures,” Mr Diamond told The Australian Financial Review. In its half-year results posted three weeks ago, Zip reported bad debts plus expected credit losses had increased fivefold to $148.3 million, 3.3 per cent of sales or almost half its revenue of $302 million. Mr Diamond said Zip started reducing credit limits for existing customers and raising the bar for first-time users of the platform late last year. “Markets are signalling they don’t like BNPL risk – very high bad debts with increasing interest rates and inflation are all no-go zones for investors,” independent payment analyst Grant Halverson said. It has responded by tightening lending criteria in a bid to ease market fears that higher interest rates will not only lift funding costs but credit losses as well. The evisceration of technology and payment stocks has triggered a fall in Zip’s ASX market cap from more than $6 billion a year ago to $1 billion this week. Zip co-founder Larry Diamond: “We have had to pause, to reflect and change course accordingly.” Dominic Lorrimerįor Zip, there have also been concerns that Mr Diamond – who owns just less than 10 per cent of the company – and Sezzle boss Charlie Youakim will not achieve promised synergies or hit their target for the combined businesses to become profitable in 2024. The rout – which has included a 30 per cent slide since a merger with Sezzle was announced in late February – was triggered by a savage change in global sentiment towards technology sector growth stocks as interest rates start to rise. The market’s shellacking of the buy now, pay later sector has been violent and Zip co-founder Larry Diamond says he feels the pain of retail investors and staff holding Zip stock that has nosedived by 80 per cent over the past year. ![]() A man and woman sex in a hotel room,woman breast visible after.
