    Picking up the gist of English isn't so bad. Mastering it is a pain because there are so many rules that have rhyme or reason to them, and many times they contradict themselves.

    Finnish is a Uralic language originating from Central Asia. Finnish, Hungarian and Estonian (Uralic) and Basque (isolate) are totally different from the rest of the west (Indo-European).

    i would think they contracted with someone obviously to both build it and launch it and the country just runs it. 99% likely a comms satellite.

    I would this correlates the the number of opiate prescriptions written by doctors. Cheaper to get heroin than visit the doctor and then pay for legal heroin at the pharmacy

    Indeed more people get the itch then there doctor goes to jail when the dea started to crack down and then pharmacist wont fill a sketchy script so then they turn to heroin.
