Musk hoists GOP banner and tears into Biden as U.S. probes his empire
BY
ANDThe world’s most famous entrepreneur is ratcheting up a battle with its most powerful government, as Elon Musk sharpens his critiques of Joe Biden and aligns himself with Republicans.
Armed robbers, one armed with a knife, stole 600 rolls of toilet paper outside a supermarket in Hong Kong on Monday.
Learning to kill was harder. She practised at the slaughterhouse, serenely confident, as she would tell preachy Americans later, that these bulls would otherwise die by the hammer, an “unsporting” end. At first she closed her eyes, missing the vital spinal gap where her dagger had to fall. She forced herself not only to look, but to stay still as the bull charged her. Only then could she see the spot. The keen, true thrust, and the instantaneous death, made her sing with joy. In her fairly short career—she retired in 1950, at 27, wanting to marry a man who would not roll over so readily—she killed more than 750 bulls, happily collecting their ears, tails and feet.
volo- 飛ぶ
Volvo means "I roll" in Latin, conjugated from "volvere". The name Volvo was originally registered in May 1911 as a separate company within SKF AB and as a registered trademark with the intention to be used for a special series of ball bearing, but this idea was only used for a short period of time and SKF decided to use "SKF" as the trademark for all its bearing products.
