People in Moscow who were disappointed when Starbucks closed its coffee shops after Russia sent troops into Ukraine may now feel a caffeine jolt of hope: A nearly identical operation is opening in the capital.

The name's almost the same: Stars Coffee. The logo could be the separated-at-birth twin of the Starbucks mermaid, with flowing hair, a small enigmatic smile and a star atop her head - though instead of a Starbucks crown she wears a Russian headdress called a kokoshnik.

The departure of these companies was a psychological blow to Russians who had become used to the comforts of Western-style consumer culture. But Russian entrepreneurs saw opportunity in suddenly unoccupied stores. Yunus Yusupov, a popular rap artist who uses the stage name Timati, and restaurateur Anton Pinsky partnered to buy the Starbucks assets, then took the imitation strategy a step further by giving the operation an English-language name.

Why do so few people want to run for Toronto city council this election?With less than two days until the deadline, there are fewer than half as many candidates running as there were in 2018. Because of who they'll be working with. After the last 2 years and now a new set of major issues coming up. Can’t imagine why you would want to run. Because you cannot have an opinion that is not approved by the current commissars.
