"The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet."

dear people, there's nothing cyberpunk about shopping. Even if it's augmented and stuff. while staring at the "cyber", you lost the "punk" part; cyberpunk is about grim meathook future, not sexy shopping accessories.

"Северная столица станет одной из площадок Cirque du Soleil. С этого года у именитого коллектива есть эксклюзивный партнер в Петербурге - Международный центр фестивалей и Праздников. А недавно вице-губернатор Алла Манилова подписала протокол о намерениях с основателем цирка Ги Лалиберте. Теперь на берегах Невы должна появиться постоянная креативная площадка. На ней будут создавать новые номера, готовить будущие шоу и тренировать российских циркачей."
