 List the recipients of the Nicholas Rescher Prize for Systematic Philosophy.

The Nicholas Rescher Prize for Systematic Philosophy was established by the University of Pittsburgh in 2009 to counter present-day tendencies to narrow specialization by rewarding and showcasing the work of philosophers who have addressed the historical “big questions” of the field in ways that nevertheless command the respect of specialists. Awarded biennially the prize consists of a gold medal together with a sum of $25,000. The prize is named for Nicholas Rescher, Distinguished University Professor of Philosophy, who has served on the university’s faculty for over 50 years. The recipients to date are: Ernest Sosa (2010), Alvin Plantinga (2012, joint award) and Jürgen Mittelstraß (2012, joint award), Hilary Putnam (2015), and Ruth Millikan (2017).

 Describe the controversy surrounding Ada County Assessor Roberta McIntyre's spending. Respond in 265 words.

The attorney general’s office does not comment on pending cases. But, according to documents obtained Thursday from the AG’s office, Ada County Commissioner Dave Case filed a public official corruption complaint on April 16. Under state law, the AG’s office has the authority to investigate elected county officials accused of criminal activity.
About the same time, Ada County Commissioners asked McIntyre to close her county-issued credit card because of spending concerns.
▪ March 22, 2018: Bought two High Roller Ferris Wheel tickets and paid for personal ground transportation costs in Las Vegas that totaled $154.27.
▪ Jan. 29, 2018: Purchased two tickets to a hockey game in Las Vegas for $173.
▪ Jan. 13, 2016: Bought personal items at WalMart, Crystal Bridges Museum of Art, Eleven and Village Inn Restaurant in Bentonville, Arkansas, that totaled $171.19.
McIntyre told investigators the Las Vegas charges were incurred while she was attending a work-related conference. When later confronted by county officials about the non-conference related spending, she reimbursed the county, according to investigators.
She told investigators the Arkansas charges were incurred because she accidentally used the wrong credit card while on a personal trip. When she returned to Boise, she said she realized the mistake and wrote a reimbursement check directly to the credit card company instead of reimbursing the county. She said she did not notify county officials about the mix-up because she did not think it was required, according to the complaint.
In 2016, McIntyre came under scrutiny when the attorney general’s office charged one of her former employees with stealing from a dead man’s estate.

 What do you know about Asus's new H370 Mining Master motherboard?

Asus is tapping into the cryptocurrency mining trend with a new motherboard it has announced today that can support up to 20 GPUs, thus enabling users to effectively power an entire mining farm with one single board. It’s aptly called the H370 Mining Master motherboard and as you can probably tell, it has been developed with the express purpose of mining cryptocurrency in mind.
The new motherboard takes the baton from the Asus B250 Mining Expert which was released last year. It made ambitious cryptocurrency hobbyist farms more accessible while also making large-scale operations more efficient. The company says that the sales volume of the board far exceeded its expectations.
Not only does the new H370 Mining Master motherboard have support for up to 20 graphics cards, it also makes connectivity simpler by allowing USB riser cables to plug directly into the PCB. This reduces the downtime by making it easier to diagnose and fix problems.
Since mining is all about numbers, users will only turn a profit if the value of cryptocurrency they generate exceeds the cost of producing it. One way to achieve that is by increasing the number of graphics cards per node. The H370 Mining Master makes this simpler with banks of vertical PCIe-over-USB ports through which riser cables can be plugged directly into the motherboard.Asus will be showcasing this “blockchain behemoth” at its booth in Nangang Hall from June 5th through June 9th at Computex 2018 in Taiwan. The company is yet to confirm pricing but says that it’s going to be available in North America in Q3 2018.

 Describe what kind of regulations should be in place to resolve the global problem of electronic waste, including cable TV set top boxes. Respond in 37 sentences.

The problem is a global one. Consumers are hungry for entertainment and new electronics, but what do we do with the old stuff?
Unfortunately, our insatiable desire for newer, faster and more efficient electronics has literally created piles of obsolete electronics that threaten to consume the landscape; polluting ecosystem as we try to rid ourselves of it.
With more than 224 million cable TV set-top boxes in US households, these devices are major contributors to the e-waste problem.
Broken or outdated cable boxes are replaced, but often improperly disposed of by consumers who don’t have tech recycling available to them in their area. This has been going on for many years, adding to an ever-growing global dilemma about what to do with electronic garbage. Plus, with the FCC’s recent proposal to open up set-top box development to third-parties (threatening the pay TV industry’s monopoly), we could see an even greater influx of e-waste.
E-waste used to mean discarded electronics that had been powered by electricity. Examples include TVs, VCRs, cable TV set-top boxes, desktop computers and monitors. That definition eventually was expanded to also include items like cellphones which are battery driven. Basically, if you plug it in or stick a battery in it – it would be considered electronic waste.
Mainly consisting of plastic waste and metals, this type of garbage isn’t biodegradable, but it can be broken down into parts, re-purposed or recycled. And the more we can repurpose and recycle, the better for everyone.
According to a 2006 MSN article, “…the government estimates that 133,000 electronic devices are tossed aside each day, amounting to 3 million tons of so-called e-junk per year.” Ten years later this is a problem that is growing exponentially.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that electronic waste the fastest growing waste source coming from urban areas in America. And the sad truth is that only 12.5% of all e-waste is currently being recycled.
Cable TV set-top boxes, digital converter boxes and cable cards contribute to the problem with millions of pieces of discarded components tossed away each year.
Cable TV companies have a monopoly on cable set-top boxes. They rent or lease their set-top boxes to millions of subscribers and upgrade them at will. Consumers essentially have no say in what brand of cable box they use or whether or not it’s energy efficient.
This has been going on since the 1970s when cable set-top boxes came into use, and as you can imagine cable TV companies want it to continue. But thanks to a proposal by the Federal Communications Commission (F.C.C.), a dramatic change may be just around the corner for pay TV subscribers.
According to The New York Times, both cable and satellite TV companies would have their business practices affected by this proposal.
Consumers would have the option to choose their own devices to obtain TV programming. They would no longer have to accept the boxes given to them by their provider, nor would they have to lease the set-top boxes them from the companies involved.
This could potentially open up a new marketplace for tech companies who could then could offer more energy efficient, green electronics made from recycled materials to pay TV subscribers.
Ultimately, the proposal is both a good thing and a bad thing.
For consumers looking to drop monthly equipment rental fees and purchase newer, more energy efficient technology to replace their old stuff , it’s a great proposal. Cable boxes might even become obsolete in time, depending upon technological advancement and competition in the marketplace.
However, in terms of e-waste production, this proposal could actually add to the problem in the short-term by creating more electronic waste in the form of even more old cable TV set-top boxes being tossed out.
There really isn’t one fix to the problem of e-waste, but there are at least three things that can be done to manage electronic waste now and in the future.
First, encourage all companies to work on technological innovations that are made from recycled materials. Support the creation of new technology by encouraging the re-use of old tech in a new way.
Second, continue to educate both consumers and companies on the proper disposal of electronic waste.
Third, provide more opportunities for easy disposal and recycling of electronic materials. Make it a priority to have e-waste recycling centers available in every community and provide incentives for their continued use.

 What is the latest news on the LA Olympic bid?

U.S. President Donald Trump Thursday restated his support for Los Angeles’ bid for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2024 during a high-level meeting with International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach at the White House in Washington D.C.
Amid a tight battle between Los Angeles and rival bid city Paris for the 2024 Games, Bach was in the the U.S. this week to attend a meeting with new Olympic sponsor Intel that was held in New York. Bach spoke to Trump earlier this year when the latter President initially expressed support for his nation’s bid and extended an invitation for the visit.
The IOC Executive Board earlier this month proposed that both LA and Paris be awarded the 2024 and 2028 Games, a motion that should be rubber-stamped by the IOC membership at a meeting July 11. Both cities, however, say they are aiming only for 2024 and the IOC has yet to disclose how the allocation would take place.
Due to Trump’s isolationist policies and the recent election of popular Emmanuel Macron in France, there is speculation that the IOC might be more comfortable with Paris going first, then Los Angeles in 2028 – which would occur after Trump’s term-limit has ended.
Both the White House and the IOC have kept quiet about the meeting and have yet to disclose any details about the discussion that took place.
Macron last month pledged that he would attend the July 11 meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland where both cities are set to present the technical aspects of their bids to stakeholders, and would travel to Lima, Peru in September when the IOC elects the winning city. Trump has yet to make the same commitment.
In 2009 then U.S. President Barack Obama traveled to Copenhagen, Denmark to support Chicago’s bid for the 2016 Games, but the plan backfired and he was informed while returning home in Air Force One that his city place fourth out of as many candidates. Rio had won the Games.
Last year, Obama recollected that he felt the decision “was a little cooked.” The President, however, had not previously met with Jacques Rogge who was IOC President at the time.

 Hey, have you heard about CC0 Textures?

3D artist StruffelProductions has launched CC0 Textures, a new online library devoted to… well, the clue is probably in the title, isn’t it?
At the time of posting, the site contains nearly 100 PBR texture sets – usually colour, normal, AO, roughness and displacement – covering common real-world materials, including stone, wood, concrete and fabric.
Each is seamlessly tileable, and provided in JPG or PNG format at resolutions up to 4,096 x 4,096px or 8,192 x 8,192px, along with the Substance .sbsar file from which they were generated.
And, of course, they’re all provided under a CC0 licence, meaning that you can use them in any project you like without attribution, including for commercial work.
According to StruffelProductions, the site was founded out of a desire to help other artists avoid the legal grey area that can result from using textures from commercial resource sites.
If you want to support the project, StruffelProductions has a Patreon page where you can fund future work.
At the time of posting, new textures are being added daily, and Patreon funding is just $30/month shy of StruffelProduction adding free 3D scans to CC0 Textures as well.

 Wow, that's a huge amount of waste - what can I do about it?

Every year we dump a massive 2.12 billion tons of waste. If all this waste was put on trucks they would go around the world 24 times.
This stunning amount of waste is partly because 99 percent of the stuff we buy is trashed within 6 months.
Leading green companies are becoming zero-waste companies. Zero waste is a philosophy that encourages redesign so that all products are reused. The process is similar to the way resources are reused in nature.
According to the United Nations we dump 2.12 million tons of waste every year.

 Describe the Cowgirls of Color and their role in the rodeo industry.

The Cowgirls of Color are frustrated. It’s the final stop of Bill Pickett invitational rodeo and the only all-female team has had a difficult first ride, making their chances at a victory very unlikely.
“The whole point was to win, not just to be in [the event] because we’re girls,” says KB, a 39-year-old legal administrator who has been riding with the team for a year and a half.
In a sport dominated by white men, the all-female, all-black team is a rarity. At the Bill Pickett rodeo, the only black rodeo in the country, high-octane events such as bull riding and steer wrestling remain almost exclusively male. But every year brings more female contestants than the last.
Since the team formed two years ago, they have set out to prove that they’re more than just a novelty team – that they can beat their male-dominated competition in the most intense events and go on to win thousands of dollars in prize money.
Selina “Pennie” Brown, Sandra “Pinky” Dorsey, Kisha “KB” Bowles and Brittaney Logan met through a veteran horseman, Dr Ray Charles Lockamy, at a riding event in Maryland. Despite being relatively new to the sport, they decided to form a women’s team to compete in the Bill Pickett rodeo, with Lockamy as their coach. Only Pinky had competed in rodeo events as a teenager. “I was the only black person there,” she says.
Like most equestrian sports, rodeo has always been mostly white. Black cowboys competed in rodeos from the 1940s, but tales of corrupt scoring and judges literally turning their backs on black contestants proliferated for decades thereafter, stalling the growth of the sport among black riders. Black cowboys who entered rodeos “would be discriminated against in ways that were supposed to be subtle”, says Carolyn Carter, the general manager of the Bill Pickett rodeo. In 1968, the legendary bull rider Myrtis Dightman was advised to “turn white” if he wanted to claim the top prizes.
Since then, the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) hall of famer Fred Whitfield has won multiple world titles and become the first African American all-around champion, amassing millions in prize money, while Bill Pickett’s six-city tour has become a mainstay on the rodeo scene, a feeder for black riders into traditional events where almost all the contestants are still white.
There was $46m in prize money handed out last year in the PRCA circuit, the most ever. While several black cowboys have competed in the world’s biggest rodeo, the National Rodeo Finals in Las Vegas, no African American woman has yet qualified.

 Describe the features of the dragon language Translator.

Click each word or phrase above to view the translations. Click Mode is simpler, and best for small texts or mobile devices.
Hover over each word or phrase above to view the translations. Click to lock a translation in place, or click away to return to Hover Mode. Hover Mode is more advanced and best for quickly examining large texts.
The Translator will not provide phrase translations. Enable this feature to see translations for phrases, idioms, and other expressions.
The Translator will provide phrase translations. Disable this feature to see word-for-word translations only.
Ask for help on the Question Board or suggest a translation.
The Translator is an advanced search tool designed to help you build accurate, authentic sentences in the dragon language. If you're new to the language, consider taking a look at the introductory lessons first. Some basic knowledge will help you make the most of this tool. Otherwise, the Translator will also suggest relevant lessons and dictionary entries for you to explore.
The Translator will return your text with each translated word or phrase underlined. Click to view each translation. Some words may have multiple translations. To determine the best fit, be sure to examine the definitions, connotations, and notes provided.
The dragon language contains a vocabulary of ~640 words, so not every English word or phrase has a direct equivalent. Some translations are suggestions for synonyms or otherwise close words if no direct translation exists. The Translator's suggestions will continue to improve as people like you help provide them. Sometimes you may find that no close translation exists at all, and that you may need to rethink what to say using the existing vocabulary. This process will become easier as you learn the language.
If you're having trouble finding a translation, consider simplifying your text. The dragon language tends towards simple and straightforward expressions. Instead of searching for "I'd possibly like to pick up the dragon language", consider instead "I want to know the dragon language." You will have more success with simplified text like the above.
The Translator will attempt to solve phrases and expressions wherever a translation exists. It will also attempt unfamiliar words by testing them against common prefixes and suffixes. Be aware that this method is not perfect, and may sometimes result in false positives. For example, a missing translation for "cater" could incorrectly return kaaz "cat". Check each translation to ensure it matches the text you submitted.
The Translator is not a spell-checker or grammar checker (for either dragon or English). Keep in mind that just because the Translator can find a translation does not mean that the provided text is correct. For example, the Translator might say that koaan is a past participle of ko 'in', even though koaan is by all means an impossible construction.
This tool uses the same methods described in the Translating lesson to translate text. We encourage you to read the lesson if you would like to translate yourself.
The more you know about the language, the more you'll get from the Translator. We hope that it becomes a valuable resource for you as you practice and growing your vocabulary.
If you have any feedback on the Translator or other tools on the site, visit the Site Discussion forum and share your thoughts.

 Describe the Humane Society's campaign to end the use of gestation stalls for sows.

The Humane Society of the United States is almost single-handedly changing the way farmers feed America’s appetite for bacon, ribs, holiday hams and other pork products.
Under pressure from the animal-welfare group, food industry giants such as ConAgra, Kroger, Safeway, Compass Group, Costco, McDonald’s, Burger King and Wendy’s have agreed in recent months to require their pork suppliers to phase out the use of gestation stalls for sows. The move will require producers to keep sows in pens, rather than crates, which means redesigning bars and training workers. The industry has long argued that the stalls are needed to protect sows from hurting each other, and there are concerns that the added cost ending their use will make it even harder for independent farmers to compete with corporate operations.
Gestation stalls, like conventional cages for hens, “have been scientifically researched. They have been found to provide benefits to both the animal, as well as to the farmworkers who are responsible for the care of the animals,” said Kay Johnson Smith, president and CEO of the Animal Agriculture Alliance.
But Temple Grandin, a renowned expert on animal welfare respected both by industry and activists, says the way sows and hens are housed is by far the two biggest issues and that change is inevitable in both. Another issue, docking the tails of dairy cattle, is being eliminated, she says.
“The public is just not going to accept sow stalls,” says Grandin, who has advised a variety of companies, including McDonald’s.
To force changes in the pork industry, the Humane Society has released undercover videos taken inside various sow operations, including two this year near Goodwell, Okla., in the district of the House Agriculture Committee’s chairman, Republican Frank D. Lucas.
Restaurant and supermarket chains have given various goals for the phase-out, but Wayne Pacelle, president and chief operating officer of the Humane Society of the United States, said he expects the transition to be complete by 2022, the deadline set by McDonald’s.
The Humane Society last month asked the USDA inspector general to investigate the use of checkoff dollars by the two groups.

 Describe Apple's Animoji feature and the lawsuit against it.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A Japanese software company is suing Apple Inc (AAPL.O) in a U.S. court over the trademark for the term “animoji”, alleging the U.S. technology company stole the name to use on a feature of its iPhone X.
Tokyo-based Emonster kk sued Apple on Wednesday in federal court in San Francisco, saying it holds the U.S. trademark on the term animoji and that Apple’s use of the word is a “textbook case” of deliberate infringement.
Apple’s animoji feature allow users to animate the facial expressions of emojis using facial recognition technology. It will be included on the iPhone X which is scheduled for release in November.
Phil Schiller, Apple’s chief marketing officer, touted the animoji feature during the iPhone X launch event on Sept. 12, calling it a “great experience” for communicating with family and friends.
Emonster chief executive Enrique Bonansea launched an animated texting app in 2014 called Animoji and registered a trademark on the product name, according to the lawsuit.
Apple had full knowledge of Emonster’s app because it is available for download on Apple’s App Store, the lawsuit said.
“Apple decided to take the name and pretend to the world that ‘Animoji’ was original to Apple,” Emonster said in the complaint.
Emonster said it is seeking unspecified money damages and a court order blocking Apple from using the term while the lawsuit is pending.

 Can you provide a statement to the closing of RISE?

It is with great mixed emotion to announce that RISE will be closing for good at the end of April 2015. As many of you know, our lease expired several years ago and we have been open since on borrowed time.
It’s been an amazing run of over 16 years which is rare in the club business and even rarer for a club that never served a drop of alcohol. I would like to personally thank and mention Alan Pottak who not only helped finance the RISE sound system when we ran out of money in the beginning, but also installed, maintained, tuned and repaired it over the years keeping it as good as new to this day.
It wasn’t easy in the least, but Myself, Darrin, Mike and the entire RISE staff are very proud of what we delivered each week. As for Mike Swells, without him, RISE would have closed a few years ago when Darrin and I moved to Brooklyn. Mike is the reason it kept going and he deserves a big thank you from all.
With that said, we have an amazing 2 months of closing parties planned which begin this very weekend. Part 1 of those parties are in March and Part 2 are in April (announced soon). I know I speak for the entire RISE staff (past and present) when I say how much we all appreciate each and every one of you who come and dance and socialize in the wee hours of the night in the sleepy town called Boston.

 What do you think about the "special relationship" between the UK and the US?

The UK government needs to be "less deferential" towards the US and more willing to say no to Washington, a group of MPs have said.
The Commons Foreign Affairs committee also said it was wrong to speak of "the special relationship" with the US, as it was fostering other alliances.
However, the MPs did agree that the link between the countries was "profound and valuable".
The Foreign Office said the two nations share a "unique" bond.
The committee said the phrase "the special relationship" did not reflect the "modern" Anglo-American relationship.
It was originally coined more than 60 years ago by Winston Churchill.
The committee said although Britain and the US still had close ties, the UK's influence had "diminished" as its economic and military power had waned.
"The use of the phrase 'the special relationship' in its historical sense, to describe the totality of the ever-evolving UK-US relationship, is potentially misleading, and we recommend that its use should be avoided," the committee said.
"The overuse of the phrase by some politicians and many in the media serves simultaneously to de-value its meaning and to raise unrealistic expectations about the benefits the relationship can deliver to the UK."
Three Labour MPs and two Conservatives voted unsuccessfully for the recommendation to be dropped but were over-ruled.
The committee said that the relationship was more associated now with the perceived support Britain gave to President George W Bush over the Iraq war.
Foreign Affairs Committee evidence session on the "special relationship"
"The perception that the British government was a subservient 'poodle' to the US administration leading up to the period of the invasion of Iraq and its aftermath is widespread both among the British public and overseas," it said.
"This perception, whatever its relation to reality, is deeply damaging to the reputation and interests of the UK."
The committee also said US President Barack Obama had taken the same "pragmatic" attitude as it was recommending now since entering the White House in 2009.
It said: "The UK needs to be less deferential and more willing to say no to the US on those issues where the two countries' interests and values diverge.
"The UK's relationship should be principally driven by the UK's national interests within individual policy areas. It needs to be characterised by a hard-headed political approach to the relationship and a realistic sense of the UK's limits."
Committee chairman Mike Gapes said: "We must be realistic and accept that globalisation, structural changes and shifts in geopolitical power will inevitably affect the UK-US relationship.
"Over the longer-term, the UK is unlikely to be able to influence the US to the extent it has in the past."
A Foreign Office spokeswoman said the British media's "preoccupation" with the state of the relationship was often at the "expense of coverage of the more substantive aspects of the relationship".
"It doesn't really matter whether someone calls it 'the special relationship' or not," she said.
"What matters is that the UK's relationship with the US is unique, and uniquely important to protecting our national security and promoting our national interest."
Sir Winston had first coined the phrase during his famous "Iron Curtain" speech in March 1946.
He had been inspired by the countries' shared struggle against Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.
And throughout the Cold War, cultural and historical similarities, diplomatic consultation and defence and nuclear co-operation meant that Anglo-American relations were particularly close.

 "What's the latest news on Bitcoin?"

Bitcoin is on the verge of hitting $8,000 following the recent upswing of 20%. The cryptocurrency has been steadily building on the gains made in the last two months reaching a point of breaking the $7,500 point in the last weekend. It made a leap of 5% to around $7,700 as of Monday 23rd July according to Coin Market Cap following days of stability and improved price gains. The weekend saw the world’s leading cryptocurrency strike a two-month high as it continues to pull through its worst period at the start of the year.
It is important to note that Bitcoin’s recent gains are not reflected in all cryptocurrencies. For instance, Ethereum value went down by about 3 percent over the same period. For more information on real-time prices of different coins, check online cryptocurrency converter.
Although the Bitcoin rise falls short of some analysts’ predictions of rising above $10,000 in May 2018, the gains are seen as evidence of the coin’s consolidated growth in the coming months. The gains made in the last two months shows the BTC dominance in the entire crypto market reaching its highest level before the end of the year. However, the current surge is considerably low compared to the 2017 peak, when Bitcoin was headed beyond the $10,000 mark and almost created a stampede of investors clamoring to lay their hands on Bitcoin.
Bitcoin experts have linked the recent surge in price value to recent news about the giant asset-management group Blackrock planning to get into cryptocurrencies and blockchains. This probably acted as a catalyst for the soaring value of Bitcoin. Investors are also patiently waiting for the approval of a Bitcoin ETF requested by the blockchain platform SolidX through the Chicago Board of Exchange. Many are hopeful that the ETF (Bitcoin exchange-traded fund) will be launched as early as August by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Economists claim that if the ETF is introduced, Bitcoin’s price could shoot towards the highs of 2017 owing to increased regulation and trust in the cryptocurrency. A similar thing was introduced in the gold market in 2003 that precipitated a sharp increase in the price of the commodity by around 300 percent.
Nonetheless, the SEC has previously rejected the suggestion of an ETF last year, citing the unpredictability of price of Bitcoin. Regardless of how the SEC responds to the request, the trend that has captured the attention of governments and financial institutions to explore and work within the digital currency space is unlikely to be affected. In their report last week, Grayscale noted that institutions will continue to develop interests and venture into the cryptocurrency products amid the expectations surrounding the approval of ETF adding to the long-term gains of Bitcoins. According to a report by an eToro expert, there’s evidence that institutions and authorities are getting into grips with the crypto markets every month.
Although the last two months have been particularly impressive in the gains by Bitcoin, the past week has been exceedingly important; the crowning moment. It was a case of solid upswing threatening to knock on the $8,000 barrier. Analysts at Newton Advisor refer the values around $8,000 as the "formidable area of resistance". The experts think that until that level is broken, it will be difficult to read into the trends and make projections if the virtual currency is truly heading towards meaningful highs of 2017. The current trend is seen as a “line in the sand” that the crypto-coin has to pass to start a larger rally as we head towards the last quarter of the year.
Bitcoin is still struggling at more than 60 percent low of its all-time high of close to $20 000 in December last year. Just like Bitcoin, other cryptocurrencies have come under global scrutiny following cases of fraud and theft around initial coin offerings, market manipulation, and the alleged use of cryptocurrencies as a hub for money laundering.
According to a recent study by CoinMarketCap, based on historical data, weekends are emerging as crucial times for price swings in the crypto market. This is not too far from the truth considering the last two months where Bitcoin has seen critical gains in its value on weekends. Especially the Saturday of 21st July to Monday saw the major cryptocurrency going up almost 18 percent. Even by looking at historical data the biggest price changes have materialized over the weekends.
On a Saturday of December 2017 was the day that the virtual currency peaked at its all-time high of $19 600. Over the last two months, the lowest value of $6 648 was experienced over the weekend of June 9. Nearly 82% of the weekends have seen at least 3% moves in one or the other direction in Bitcoin prices. Around 60% of the weekends have had a 5% or higher price move over a weekend since December of last year.
Mark Newton confirms the observations when he states that "We are seeing above-average volatility on weekends with it moving dramatically up or down." The most recent was the instance when the Bitcoin value dropped to the lowest of $6 647.33 over the last two months during the weekend of June 9.
The report also noted that although the price changes are considerable, trade volume is lower on weekends. This means that the size of individual orders is usually big while the number of orders is still low. This could indicate that large holders of the cryptocurrency (Bitcoin whales) are mainly active during the weekend to stockpile or offload big chunks of the Bitcoins so as to take advantage of the big price swings that happen in the weekends. Such activities by the big holders have a significant impact on the price changes of cryptocurrencies. This trend was very influential over the last two months contributing to the gains made by Bitcoin.
However, this doesn’t imply that weekends are the only times to expect a volatile behavior in cryptocurrency trading. You can still make a good trade on any day of the week!

 Have you heard the news about Rod Rosenstein? Respond in 6 sentences.

Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) called for Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to step down Thursday over his lack of transparency and candor with Congress.
Meadows blasted Rosenstein on Twitter for his "characterization of events" and his willingness to speak with the Wall Street Journal but missing a meeting with Congress last week.
"Based on additional information we've learned over the last week, it is clear Rod Rosenstein should resign immediately," he wrote.
Rosenstein had been scheduled to meet with Republican lawmakers last week in order to answer questions regarding reports that he had planned to wear a wire to secretly record President Trump in the spring of 2017.
Meadows participated in a House interview Thursday with FBI lawyer James Baker regarding these reports.
Rosenstein reportedly claimed his comments were attempts at sarcasm but several GOP lawmakers have threatened to subpoena him.

 Describe the recent events in the cryptocurrency market.

As reported by Bloomberg, his $26 billion family office is planning to trade digital assets. Adam Fisher was able to get the internal approval in order to start trading virtual coins in the last months.
During the World Economic Forum that was held in Davos at the beginning of the year, Georges Soros said that digital coins cannot be used as actual currencies due to their high volatility.
Indeed, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the market tend to fluctuate severely in a matter of hours. From one day to the other, 20% appreciations or deprecations are very common.
“As long as you have dictatorships on the rise you will have a different ending, because the rulers in those countries will turn to Bitcoin to build a net egg abroad,” said Soros.
As of right now, Bitcoin has lost over 65% of its price since the all time high registered in December 2017. Another important figure in the financial world, former hedge fund manager, Mike Novogratz, is working with JP Morgan in order to effectively compete against the threat cryptocurrencies pose to the current banking system.
Soros has been investing, indirectly, in the cryptocurrency market. His firm has an important stake in overstock.com, being the third largest shareholder of the company.

 Describe the song "Do They Know It's Hallowe'en?"

"Do They Know It's Hallowe'en?" is a charity record inspired by "Do They Know It's Christmas?". It was released on October 11, 2005, in Canada on Vice Records by a cast of rock artists and other performers under the name "North American Halloween Prevention Initiative" (NAHPI). It reached number four on the Canada pop chart.
Like its inspiration, it is a charity song, with all proceeds being donated to UNICEF. According to the official press release, the song "stems from a frustration with other benefit songs' misguided, somewhat patronizing attitude, and Western-centric worldview."

 Hey, have you heard about this UTRUST and Gambio partnership?

Switzerland-based cryptocurrency payment platform UTRUST, sometimes referred to as the “next PayPal”, has taken a major step towards mainstream acceptance, announcing that it has teamed up with Germany’s biggest ecommerce solution, Gambio.
UTRUST CEO Nuno Correia described the deal as a “huge step”. Gambio provides shopping cart services for 25,000 merchant accounts in Germany, Europe’s largest economy and ecommerce market. Those merchants will all be able to offer their customers the option of paying in cryptocurrency.
According to UTRUST there are only 100,000 merchants globally who can currently accept cryptocurrency, so with this deal that number rises by 25%. For Correia, crypto companies must “focus on partnerships with real businesses, real customers, and real use-cases” if they are to make the leap into mainstream adoption.
The move was greeted with enthusiasm on Twitter and guarded optimism on Reddit. Some users were less keen on UTRUST’s use of fees to convert between the UTRUST token and other cryptocurrencies, though others argued that the fee exists to allow for resolution of disputes between customer and merchant.
Comment from discussion Huge partnership just announced. Utrust partners with germany’s largest ecommerce solution, Gambio..
UTRUST’s success has so far been built on an all too rare focus on customer protection and support. It plans to offer the “first cryptocurrency payments platform to implement consumer protections on a mass scale” and create “a global PayPal–like payments platform with extensive cryptocurrency support”. It raised $21 million via ICO in November last year.

 Describe how the Trump administration's policy of separating families at the border has impacted the ability to reunite them.

Officials told Congress on Tuesday that they had been given no instructions for keeping families together.
After missing a court-imposed deadline last week to reunite families separated at the border, administration officials have an explanation for why they had so much trouble keeping immigrants parents and children together: It wasn’t their job.
Representatives from the departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services went before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday for heavy questioning about efforts to reunify families following a Trump administration policy that took migrant children away from their parents. As of last Friday, the deadline to reunite all families, nearly 1,000 of the 2,442 children who had been separated from their parents remained in government custody.
Leahy said it would have been easy to keep track of families by issuing matching ID bracelets to parents and children. “I mean, Chuck E. Cheese uses things like this to check parents and their children when they’re there,” he said.
Instead, CBP uses a registration system that notes in a child’s immigration file whether he or she was accompanied into the country by an adult and, if so, that adult’s immigration number. But Jonathan White, a public health official at the Department of Health and Human Services, told the committee that matching information across HHS and the various immigration enforcement agencies requires an extensive forensic data scrubbing process. As a result, he said, there are still “a few” children who have not been matched to their parents.
There’s another big hurdle to the system: Once parents are no longer in ICE custody—because they have been deported or released on bond—the agency has no way of tracking them. HHS would not disclose how many of the deported parents it has found after since the federal court order in June to reunite families. The administration officials testifying before the committee on Tuesday cited the order as the reason for ICE’s stretched resources and its inability to reunite families in time.
As Mother Jones previously reported, as of even late July some parents are still being separated from their children at the border.
“It’s almost Kafka,” said Leahy.

 Explain the issue of black-on-black crime and its consequences.

Black-on-black homicide is rampant, but professional agitators couldn’t care less.
Another cell-phone video that didn’t make it to CNN or MSNBC: Last November, 33-year-old Antwan McNutt beat a man to death with a bottle of liquor on the South Side of Chicago. Onlookers took video and posted it to Facebook; no one intervened to help. McNutt, who was charged with murder this week, has prior convictions for manufacturing and delivering a controlled substance, attempted aggravated carjacking, possession of a stolen motor vehicle, and battery and resisting arrest, according to DNA Info. But he was back on the streets committing more mayhem, contrary to the “mass incarceration” conceit that black males are targeted with endless draconian punishment for minor transgressions of public order.
We rightly hold our police officers to the highest standards of conduct. Had a cop beaten a black man to death it would justifiably have been international news, especially if the beating had been caught on video. Likewise, if a white man had beaten a black man to death, it would have been international news and cause for public mourning and admonition. But the routine taking of black lives by other blacks generates no interest in the mainstream media. Forty-three hundred people, including two dozen children under the age of 12, were shot in Chicago last year. Had 4,300 white people been shot, there would have been a revolution, and the media would have set up headquarters in the city to cover the breakdown of law and order. But because the victims were nearly all black, few pay attention—besides the police.
Nor have the Black Lives Matter activists, who pour out by the thousands, sometimes to riot, in the case of alleged officer misuse of force, ever protested the killing of blacks by other blacks. If one-one-hundredth of the attention that has been paid to phantom police racism over the last two decades had been devoted to rebuilding the black family, no one would be talking about policing today. Policing is an epiphenomenon of crime. If you want fewer police in your neighborhood, make sure that people are not killing each other.
