a trend towards increasing sales – is this, then, the second derivative of sales volumes? Just heard it on the radio

Thinking about buying a chromatic harmonica for myself. Does anyone have one? Is it difficult to learn? Can I buy a used one? Should I start with a chromatic one right away or begin with a diatonic in C major? Any model recommendations?

Left my glasses at the cafe – I return, and they offer me a choice of four models from under the cash register 😉

On July 31, I ordered a phone case on eBay.
On August 1, the journey of the case from Los Angeles to Russia began. Two months have passed, and it’s still in the States. So much for that famous mail service.
Until mid-September, it was stuck somewhere there, and in the last week, it began to actively travel across America (JAMAICA/NY, BETHPAGE/NY, ANAHEIM/CA, LOS ANGELES/CA, ANAHEIM/CA).
I wonder when it will reach Russian Post, it’ll probably take another month because of our delays. eBay does have a money-back guarantee. Maybe I should wait to finally get the case and then claim a refund as compensation?))
P.S. However, I suspect it was held up at the border, something went wrong, and it was sent back to LA (Sanctions?

Metro’s marketers are amusing. Their brainchild is celebrating a birthday, and in honor of this birthday, they are running a radio promotion offering their “Whiskered Nanny” laundry detergent at 20% off. And that’s it.

A very intriguing review, with digressions into physics and poetry (“Son, look how intelligently everything is arranged in nature—the cat has holes in its fur exactly where its eyes are”, “…don’t be fooled by the big label ‘replaces a steamer’ – a multicooker without this label will resemble a multicooker with the label, just without the label”, about supercritical fluids, Celsius, Strehler, Huygens, and Hooke)
All my life I thought that inside multicookers there was a pressure sensor and, probably, scales. But, it turns out, there is only a temperature sensor installed at the bottom. Consequently, the moment when water boils away is detected by the rise in temperature above the boiling point.

“… After all, we didn’t enter politics completely green. We had experience. I was a bartender before. It’s when you empty all the ashtrays after a party…”.
Very interesting article about Iceland’s “Best Party” led by comedian Jón Gnarr, which with the slogan “More punk, less hell” won the elections and rescued Reykjavik from crisis in four years.
Here are some more campaign promises:
* to provide free towels in all swimming pools;
• to house a polar bear in the local zoo;
• to bring Jews to the country, “so that finally, someone who understands economics might come to Iceland”;
• a drug-free parliament by 2020;
• do nothing: “We’ve worked all our lives and want to rest for four years on a good salary”;
• to build a Disneyland park with free entry for the unemployed, so they “could get photographed with Goofy”;
• more closeness to rural population: “Every Icelandic farmer will have the right to house a sheep in their guest room for free”;
• free bus rides—with a caveat: “We can promise more than any other party, because we will break every promise we make”.
“…On the day of the elections, the Best Party finally stated its sole demand for a coalition partner—to watch all five seasons of the series ‘The Wire’.”
