He remains committed to turning an obscure English soccer club into the internet’s team, with a global network of wealthy crypto backers. But, as the fan clapped him supportively on the shoulder, Mr. Johnson marveled at the display of kindness, especially notable after the months of Twitter abuse. Everyone in Crawley, he said, was so much nicer in person.

Work9 Exciting Bits Of Airline News For Fall Travelers A long-standing tradition for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines is revealing a Delftware miniature house to honor its 103rd birthday since its founding making it the longest continually operating airline in the world.
