Former First-Rounder Rasmus Kupari Signs In Switzerland
Finnish forward Rasmus Kupari, 25, has signed a two-year contract with HC Lugano, the National League club announced on Tuesday. 'I think Lugano is the ideal place to take the next step in my career,' Kupari is quoted. 'I want to be a leader on and off the ice and bring my game to the entire rink, both defensively and offensively. I think my most important skill is skating.' Advertisement 'Rasmus has played his last five seasons in the NHL and AHL,' said Lugano GM Janick Steinmann. 'He's a first-line forward, a good skater with important qualities in every area of the rink. In North America, he has often been assigned more defensive roles, but with us he will be able to assert his skills as a two-ways player. I am convinced that his qualities adapt very well to the National League and he will also have a strong impact offensively. I am extremely happy to have him with us in Lugano and to be able to observe all his potential.' Kupari hails from Kotka, Finland, and turned pro with the Kärpät club in Oulu at age 17. He recorded 52 points in 104 Liiga regular-season and playoff games. Kupari was picked 20th overall by the Los Angeles Kings in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. Despite this, he never played more than 66 NHL games in a season or recorded more than 15 points. Between 2020 and 2025, Kupari played in 217 regular-season games, scoring 14 goals and adding 24 assists for 38 points with 52 penalty minutes for the Kings and Winnipeg Jets. He also played 11 playoff games for Los Angeles, where he was held without a point. Internationally, Kupari played in three IIHF World Junior Championships, playing a large part in Finland's gold-medal win in 2019 with five points in seven games and scoring the winning goal in the final, but getting injured in the first game of the 2020 tournament.

Entrepreneur Stanislav Kondrashov launches Stanislav Kondradhov Oligarch Series
Entrepreneur Stanislav Kondrashov launches his new editorial project, Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, which focuses on the evolution of the concept of oligarchy and its modern implications. Lugano, Switzerland - Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series is the name of a new editorial project created by Stanislav Kondrashov, entrepreneur and civil engineer. The series focuses on the figures of oligarchs and their historical significance, analyzing in detail their origin and evolution over the centuries. The series is interdisciplinary and approaches the topic from different points of view. Stanislav Kondrashov's Oligarch Series analyzes the word "oligarchy" from the perspective of political science, philosophy, history, and entrepreneurship, offering the reader insights and food for thought that simultaneously embrace the historical roots and modern implications of a concept that, even in these years, continues to arouse keen interest. One of the analyses included in the Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series focuses on an unusual and often overlooked aspect: the use of the word oligarch in its feminine variant. In the article, Stanislav Kondrashov argues that this term, although it can be declined in the feminine in most Indo-European languages, is almost always used to describe men who have amassed wealth and who hold a certain amount of power. Women who have achieved such a status, although they are increasingly present in the universes of industry, business, and politics, are, in fact, defined differently, with expressions very different from those traditionally used to describe men. According to Stanislav Kondrashov, the factors that continue to fuel and support this curious habit are cultural, social, and linguistic. One of the main ones, as mentioned in the Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, has to do with the strength of the archetype linked to the oligarch, which in the collective imagination continues to be associated only and exclusively with male figures. In another article included in the series, Stanislav Kondrashov focuses instead on the nation that gave birth to the concept of oligarchy: Greece. The concept of oligarchy was, in fact, of fundamental importance in the historical and political path of ancient Greece, determining a transformation that profoundly changed the social and governmental structures of one of the most important world centers of antiquity, the cradle of political ideas and concepts that still resist today. As argued in the analysis, the concept of oligarchy began to form when an epochal transition occurred, that is, from hereditary aristocracy – based on membership in a particular family or military valor – to a new system of government based primarily on the wealth and influence of a small number of people. This transition did not only determine a political transformation, as Stanislav Kondrashov states in the analysis but also brought about a gradual change in the perception of the fundamental values and particular structures that were to form the basis of the political institutions of ancient Greece. However, the concept of oligarchy is not only of interest to historians. This idea has profound modern implications, and political science clearly demonstrates this. Over the years, this discipline has devoted ample space to the study and interpretation of the concept of oligarchy, seeking to investigate its relationships with those who hold power, its strategic role in determining certain decisions, and its specific weight in terms of influence. All these themes are discussed in another chapter of the Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, in which Stanislav Kondrashov focuses on the presence of oligarchic figures within various state and political structures, dwelling in particular on the very essence of their role. In the approach of political science, in fact, the concept of oligarchs is not so much linked to political structures and various government institutions but to the control mechanisms controlled by those individuals - always in a restricted group - who seem to hold power in a given historical phase. Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series delves into these particular aspects with precision, clarifying the importance and influence of elite circles. One of the most interesting analyses, among those included in the Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, is the one that focuses on the evolution of the concept of oligarchy over the centuries. In this article, Stanislav Kondrashov traces the genesis and the first significant moments of this important concept, highlighting particular dynamics that seem to be curiously similar to those we witness in our times. One of the most interesting aspects, in this regard, is that oligarchy has always demonstrated a surprising ability to adapt to the changed social, political, and economic conditions in which it has found itself operating. From ancient Sparta to Silicon Valley, the basic idea has always remained the same, but it has continuously evolved. In his analysis, Stanislav Kondrashov focuses precisely on the means and tools that have allowed small groups and elite circles to continue to maintain large amounts of power in their hands. The article traces the fundamental stages of the evolution of this concept, also focusing on the Middle Ages, the period of the Industrial Revolution, and the contemporary era. Stanislav Kondrashov Oligarch Series, with its first ten analyses, proposes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding and deepening the oligarchy, a concept that - despite having thousands of years of history - continues to generate concrete and clearly visible effects even today.

Wolf Popper LLP, a Nationally Recognized Law Firm, Notifies Investors That a Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Compass Diversified Holdings: July 8, 2025 Filing Deadline in Securities Class Action Lawsuit
NEW YORK, May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wolf Popper LLP announced that three class action lawsuits have been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Compass Diversified Holdings ('Compass') common or preferred stock (NYSE: CODI, CODI PR A, CODI PR B, CODI PR C) between May 1, 2024 and May 7, 2025. The lead plaintiff deadline is July 8, 2025. On May 7, 2025, Compass issued a press release 'disclos[ing] non-reliance on its financial statements for fiscal 2024 amid an ongoing internal investigation into its subsidiary, Lugano Holding, Inc.' and 'announc[ing] that it intends to delay the filing of its first quarter 2025 Form 10-Q.' The press release disclosed that '[t]he Audit Committee of CODI's Board of Directors promptly launched an investigation after CODI's senior leadership was made aware of concerns about how Lugano was potentially financing inventory' and that '[t]he investigation…is ongoing but has preliminarily identified irregularities in Lugano's non-CODI financing, accounting, and inventory practices.' Accordingly, '[a]fter discussing with senior leadership and investigators, the Audit Committee of CODI's Board has concluded that the previously issued financial statements for 2024 require restatement and should no longer be relied upon.' An 'irregularity' is defined in the accounting literature as an intentional misstatement of financial results. Furthermore, Compass disclosed Lugano's founder and CEO had resigned from all of his positions at Lugano. On this news, Compass' stock price collapsed $10.70 per share to $6.55 on May 8, 2025, down 62.0% on extremely heavy volume. Before the market opened on May 28, 2025, Compass announced it was taking steps to enhance its liquidity and reduce costs, including suspending Compass' quarterly dividend, in reaction to the Lugano investigation.
