Mao is skating to Scheherazade: yay or nay?
I'm not yet sure. If it's the usual hash of The Young Sea and the Young Princess Sinbad's Ship at the Festival of Baghdad, the answer will be a resounding Nay. "Yay" if it's something that will defy expectations.

The Ides of March
the last two films I've seen:
Path to War
or
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada?
I nixed Path to War because it has that loathsome Alec Baldwin in it. I'll go with Three Burials.
Sports "bloopers"
amusing
or
tiresome
The latter film is very good, though pacing is an issue. Path to War is absorbing and well-acted, if oversympathetic to the Johnson administration.
Usually tiresome.

Clockwise
Valentina Matviyenko, an ally of Putin's, became the Speaker of Russia's Upper House. She earlier won a district election with 95% of the vote. (Sounds familiar?)
A good sign of women's empowerment in Russia
OR
Another sign that Russia is not truly a democracy.

Here is another question about an item in the news:
Authorities in L'Aquila Italy has filed murder charges against six scientist for failing to predict the quake in that city which killed 309 people in 2009.

OR
DISAGREE with the Italian government
