 What is the latest episode of Survivor (this season) about?

Zeke was voted out 5-3-2.
Last season he was also voted out with five votes.
Episode 10 was the only post-merge episode where Zeke didn’t receive a vote against him.
Zeke holds the record for the most votes against someone in this season with 11.
Three of the four players voted out post-merge so far this season has been voted out by someone they’ve played with before.
Hali was voted out by Sierra.
Debbie was voted out by Aubry.
Zeke was voted out by Michaela.
Michaela voted for Zeke three out of the four post-merge tribal councils they attended together.
Since JT was voted out, the vote outs have alternated between female and male.
JT, Sandra, Jeff, Hali, Ozzy, Debbie, Zeke.
Nobody that has been voted out this season so far has beaten their previous best placement.
Each person voted out so far has voted out the previous person on the jury.
Only females voted for Zeke this episode and only males voted for Sierra.
This is the first post-merge tribal council where there were no new votes, everyone that got a vote this round received votes in at least one previous tribal council.
This was the first time Tai got more than two votes against him at a single tribal council.
This is the first time Andrea wasn’t voted out in the first week of May.
In Redemption Island, she was voted out at the final six on May 4th, 2011.
In Caramoan, she was voted out at the final seven on May 1, 2013.
Sarah had the most confessionals again this episode with seven.
She now has the most confessionals of those still in the game with 29, passing Cirie.
Troyzan was the only person not to get a confessional this episode.
This is his sixth episode this season without a confessional.
Aubry and Tai are the only players left that have played in a previous season together.
Andrea has won every post-merge reward challenge so far this season.
Andrea/her tribe also has only lost one reward the entire season, in Episode 4.
Michaela and Cirie are the only ones who haven’t won a post-merge reward challenge.
Michaela and Zeke have previously competed in this challenge in Millennials vs. Gen X.

This challenge has previously been seen in Gabon, Redemption Island, Blood vs. Water, and Kaoh Rong.
Aubry and Tai have competed in this challenge twice, and have lost both times.
This is the first time Andrea has won individual immunity twice in one season.
She’s the first person to win individual immunity multiple times this season.
Cirie has made it to 114 days played, matching Parvati’s previous record. She will surpass Parvati in the next episode.
This episode received 8.26 million viewers and 1.8/8 in the Adults 18-49 Rating/Share.
The episode title “Reinventing How This Game is Played” was the answer to the reward challenge puzzle.
Why no credit for Andrea making it to day 100?
Andrea and Cirie are the only players left to have competed in more than one prior season.
Brad, Michaela, and Sarah are all assured to beat their previous placements. Aubry, Tai, and Cirie will not unless any of them either win or get the second most votes.
True enough. She officially placed third in Micronesia, meaning she would have to get the second most votes to win at the final tribal at least in order to place second.
Aubry must win to better her previous placement, while Tai and Cirie have to reach the final and receive enough runner up votes to better theirs.

 Explain Mereology and Elan Vital.

Mereology is the study of how parts relate to their whole. Mereological Nihilism, the view expressed by the monster, it is the belief that there is no "whole" per se, only the parts actually exist. So, for example, one might say when looking at a chair that no such "chair" exists, the "chair" is only an idea in our minds - all that really exists is a collection of atoms. Similarly, there would be no "you", only the atoms that your body contains.
Élan vital is an outdated scientific and philosophical theory of a "vital force" that gives life forms their animation. It was supposedly what distinguished between living and non-living things, and was linked with motion and consciousness.

 "Describe the various measures of international solidarity with the people of South Kurdistan against Turkish occupation attacks".

The internationalists partaking in the "human shields" campaign in Qandil are calling for international solidarity with the population of southern Kurdistan against Turkish occupation attacks.
The "human shields" launched by the South Kurdistan Youth Movement and the Young Women’s Movement in Qandil against Turkish occupation attacks continues on its 66th day.
Youths from Kirkuk, Sulaymaniyah, Sharezur, Penchewin, Ranya, Hewler, Germiyan and many other places initiated the action on June 8 to take a stand against the military invasion of the AKP/MHP government as part of Turkish occupation ambitions.
In addition to the support from Rojava, activists from other European countries also participate in the campaign. Furthermore, solidarity visits take place almost daily, in which not only the South Kurdistan population but also representatives of various political parties and institutions, Peshmergas, artists and journalists participate.
Internationalists from Russia, France, Switzerland, Spain and Catalonia are also participating in the resistance action as human shields.
The internationalists issued the following call to the public, urging for further support for the action and solidarity with the people of South Kurdistan.
“As internationalists, we are participating in an action of the youth movement in Bashur (South Kurdistan), supported by the youth of all Kurdistan. This is a call to all our comrades, worldwide to stand in solidarity with the people of Qandil, the youth movement, HPG-Guerilla and PKK.
The attacks of the Turkish state against the Qandil area are not just an attack against the civil population, it is an attack against the heart of the revolution in Kurdistan.
The Turkish army gains its power through weapons and information provided by intelligence services, mostly by deals with our own countries. This is a call for action, like the #fight4Afrin-campaign it is necessary to attack and to sabotage those, who are profiting by wars, in Europe, in America, in Russia, worldwide. Bombs and tanks cannot kill our comrades.

 What has been the reaction to Ted Osius' resignation from the Trump administration and his actions as the Former U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam?

Former U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam Ted Osius said he resigned from his post last year after the Trump administration asked him to pressure the Vietnamese government to receive more than 8,000 Vietnamese refugees marked in the U.S. for deportation.
The vast majority of the people targeted for deportation — sometimes for minor crimes — were war refugees who had established lives in the U.S. after fleeing the Vietnam War more than 40 years ago, Osius wrote in an essay this month for the American Foreign Service Association.
“And they were to be ‘returned’ decades later to a nation ruled by a communist regime with which they had never reconciled. I feared many would become human rights cases, and our government would be culpable,” he wrote.
The State Department declined to comment Friday. The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately reply to a request for comment. Osius, now vice president of Fulbright University Vietnam, a private, nonprofit institution in Saigon, described his three-year tour as U.S. ambassador in Hanoi as “the high point of my 30-year career in the Foreign Service and the honor of a lifetime.” Efforts to reach him through the university and the foreign service association Friday were unsuccessful.
Osius’s admission took on significant resonance in San Jose, which is home to more than 100,000 Vietnamese Americans, one of the largest populations of Vietnamese-born people outside of Vietnam.
It comes months after Vietnamese activists across the country, including many in the Bay Area, raised concerns that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was rounding up undocumented immigrants from Vietnam in unprecedented numbers that left communities shocked and fearful. They estimated more than 100 Vietnamese were detained across the country in October alone.
The surge in ICE activity appeared to spring in part from the Trump administration’s aggressive efforts to deport immigrants with criminal records, even in circumstances where their home countries haven’t traditionally cooperated with U.S. removal orders. In the past, immigrants in that situation have been allowed to stay in the U.S., but the Trump administration has been pressing Cambodia and Vietnam, in particular, to take back their deportees.
The result is that immigrants who have established roots and lives in the U.S. in spite of their eligibility for deportation are suddenly being detained and shipped out.
Vietnamese and U.S. officials in 2008 signed a repatriation memorandum that in part said Vietnamese immigrants who arrived in America before 1995 would not be subject to deportation. Activists, however, say some of the individuals being detained arrived before 1995, leaving them to wonder whether some of these deportations are illegal. Several organizations filed a lawsuit against the federal government in February for violating its repatriation agreement with Vietnam.
In his essay, Osius said he feared “this repulsive policy” would destroy any chances Trump had in fulfilling other goals for relations with Vietnam, among them reducing trade deficit, strengthening military relations and coping with regional threats, such as those from North Korea.
“I voiced my objections, was instructed to remain silent, and decided there was an ethical line that I could not cross if I wished to retain my integrity. I concluded that I could better serve my country from outside government, by helping to build a new, innovative university in Vietnam,” he wrote.
Phi Nguyen, litigation director at Asian Americans Advancing Justice in Atlanta, said she’s happy the former diplomat spoke out.
Nguyen said many of the Vietnamese immigrants with deportation orders came to the U.S. after the Vietnam War and no longer have ties to their home country.
“They are people who came here as refugees and who don’t really recognize the Vietnam that exists today as their country anymore,” she said.

 What is the best way to promote people in an organisation?

Are traditional promotion methods as good as promoting people at random?
Last month, three Italian researchers were awarded an Ig Nobel prize for demonstrating mathematically that organisations would become more efficient if they promoted people at random. But their research was neither the beginning nor the end of the story of how bureaucracies try – and fail – to find a good promotion method.
Alessandro Pluchino, Andrea Rapisarda and Cesare Garofalo, of the University of Catania, Sicily, calculated how a pick-at-random promotion scheme compares with other, more enshrined methods. They gave details in the journal Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and Its Applications.
The three based their work on the Peter Principle – the notion that many people are promoted, sooner or later, to positions that exceed their competence. They cite the works of other researchers who had taken tentative steps in the same direction, but they fail to mention an unintentionally daring 2001 study by Steven E Phelan and Zhiang Lin at the University of Texas at Dallas, published in the journal Computational and Mathematical Organization Theory.
Phelan and Lin aimed to see whether, over the long haul, it pays best to promote people on supposed merit (we try, one way or another, to measure how good you are), or on an "up or out" basis (either you get promoted quickly or you get the boot), or by seniority (live long and by that measure alone you will prosper). As a benchmark, a this-is-as-bad-as-it-could-possibly-get alternative, they also looked at what happens when you promote people at random. They got a surprise: random promotion, they admitted, performed better than almost every alternative. Phelan and Lin seemed (at least in my reading of their 25-page-long paper) almost shocked by what they found.
But where Pluchino, Rapisarda and Garofalo would later, independently, hone and raise this discovery for the world to admire, Phelan and Lin merely muttered, ever so quietly in the middle of a long paragraph, that "this needs to be further investigated in our future studies". They moved on to other things.
Human beings, many of them, are clever. Always there is potential to devise a new, perhaps better method of choosing which individuals to promote in an organisation. Phedon Nicolaides, of the European Institute of Public Administration in Maastricht, recently suggested in a newspaper in Cyprus what he sees as an improvement on random promotion: randomly choose the people who will make the promotion decisions.
A very different, non-random method was devised for use by the United States Air Force. Details appear in a 170-page paper prepared in 2008 by Michael Schiefer, Albert Robbert, John Crown, Thomas Manacapilli and Carolyn Wong of the Rand Corporation. But regardless of its merits, this scheme may be doomed to rejection purely because it has a curious name. The report is called The Weighted Airman Promotion System.

 Write a fictional news story about a media outlet's decision to not identify mass shooting victims.

LOS ANGELES—Far-right media outlet Breitbart News refused Monday to release the names of the 10 dead and 13 wounded in the Santa Fe High School mass shooting, saying that doing so would only give the victims exactly what they wanted. “We’re not going to give these victims the satisfaction of seeing their names and photographs published—in fact, that would just be playing right into their hands,” said editor-in-chief Alexander Mason Marlow, insisting that as a matter of journalistic principle, Breitbart News does not publish information on mass shooting victims as it simply serves to provide them with a platform to spread their vile beliefs. “After an atrocity like this, the media often digs up everything it can on the victims and they become household names. We here at Breitbart can proudly say that we will never give these types of people a voice. We especially don’t want to have a bunch of copycat victims out there on the national stage pushing the same delusional agenda.” At press time, Breitbart’s homepage featured a poignant 1,500 word write-up about the Santa Fe shooter and his struggles with mental health.

 Explain how technology is changing the insurance industry.

From apps that allow agents to quickly process applications on the go, to AI being used to navigate the vast amount data involved in insurance forms, budding technologies are at the forefront of changing how consumers interact with the services that protect them against disasters and other life-changing events.
In an industry that is built on data, it is surprising to see how long it is taking AI to find its way into the field. Regardless of using it for anything big, AI can just help with the tedious parts surrounding the paperwork and claims verification process.
According to Experian, data that is manually inputted accounts for upwards of 55% of the errors surrounding customer data, and another 32% due to typos. AI and even simple automation would help alleviate many of these errors to speed up the process for customers and lower the time needed for insurance professionals.
Our smartphones are now as much a part of us as the shoes on our feet so it only makes sense that advancements in insurtech are found throughout the mobile space.
Insurance marketplace, EverQuote, which claims to save customers an average of $531/year on auto insurance, released an app that monitors users’ driving habits. Not only did data show that users improved their driving habits while the app was in use, but the concept of live-monitoring your driving habits is being used to help pinpoint rates and identify potential risks.
Liberty Mutual, Allstate, and State Farm all have variations of drive-monitoring apps that can be used to improve rates and give a better look at driving habits. This helps eliminate the antiquated need for identifying drivers based on basic things like age and gender and focuses on what is important – driving ability.
The growing on-demand economy is also affected by the rise of mobile technologies in the insurance space. With services like Uber and Lyft using a driver’s personal car, there are times when extra insurance could be beneficial. The problem is traditional insurance doesn’t work like that.
That’s where companies like Slice Labs, founded in 2015, come into play. These types of companies offer auto (and renters insurance in the case of Slice) only when you need it. Basically, the associated apps will keep up with the distance driven and costs for the temporary insurance policy.
While services like those above are targeted on the on-demand economy, it is not a leap to say that even those not in that economy would be interested in “part-time” insurance.
It would be impossible to go an entire article about budding technologies and not mention blockchain. The decentralized network of computers and smart contracts can be implemented into almost any existing industry to offer improvements, and the insurance industry is no exception.
With smart contracts and KYC (know-your-customer) data being transferred via the blockchain, insurance companies could alleviate many of the issues regarding the time it takes to verify policies for not only car insurance, but almost any type of insurance policy. While this is still a very new field, the Hong Kong Federation of Insurers (HKFI) is already working on a blockchain-based platform to address these issues.
Then you have companies like Proxeus, which, while not involved in the insurance game, offers a service that allows companies to integrate blockchain tech into existing workflows. Proxeus, with help from IBM, recently showed that it was possible to register a company in Switzerland in record-breaking time, all but eliminating many of the timely processes traditionally involved through the use of smart contracts and decentralized apps, typically referred to as dApps.
Registering a business is definitely not the same thing as signing up for car insurance, but the fact remains that the tech can change traditional processes and workflows by incorporating budding blockchain tech.
Technology is changing many facets of our lives and simplifying various aspects of our daily grind. Insurance has been one of the industries that have taken a bit longer to adapt to these new innovations, but AI, blockchain, and a general increase in the advantages of mobile applications is helping bring the sphere into the 21st century.

 What is the latest news regarding safe injection sites in the U.S.? Respond in detail.

The country’s top doctor has apparently decided he likes the idea of "safe injection" sites.
If one thing’s for sure about the idea to open a safe injection site in Philly, it’s that the response has been massively conflicted. Over the last few months, people have debated the merits of the comprehensive user engagement site proposal, and community meetings about it have been rife with disagreement.
But the country’s top doctor has apparently decided he likes the idea.
U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams, appointed by President Trump, announced he supports the facilities on a national level. On Wednesday, he came out in support of various harm reduction measures to combat opioid addiction, including medication-assisted treatment, syringe exchange programs and safe injection sites, according to a report from Modern Healthcare.
To explain his support for these methods, which some find controversial, Adams cited their success in lowering opioid overdose deaths in other countries.
In the last year, Philly has been one of several cities — including Seattle, Denver, San Francisco and New York — to propose opening a safe injection site to help lower rates of opioid overdose deaths.
This announcement by the top medical professional in the U.S. is especially notable because his state-level counterpart in Pennsylvania hasn’t yet taken a stance.
Philadelphia officials announced in January that they would “actively encourage” opening a safe injection site in the city. They called their proposal a comprehensive user engagement site in an attempt to emphasize that it would be connected to addiction treatment services, and people wouldn’t be limited to injection drugs — they could also use non-intravenous drug on site.
In the months since, a handful of Philly people have sounded off on the proposal.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro and Praise 107.9 radio host Solomon Jones both came out against the idea. City Councilmembers Maria Quiñones-Sanchez and Cindy Bass said they needed more information before they could support the proposal, while city public health officials have welcomed it.
Adams previously pushed for harm-reduction approaches when he was Indiana’s health commissioner, and earlier this year issued an advisory calling for more people to carry naloxone. President Trump has yet to take an official position on safe injection sites.

 Describe the history of 63 State Street in Albany, NY.

You know 63 State Street. It's that skinny building at the corner of State and James in downtown Albany. It's both beautiful and kind of odd, standing all dressed up by itself there, like it's waiting to meet a group of other fashionably-adorned architecture.
The building has been for sale for a while now, and as the Biz Review reported Thursday, it's going up for auction as part of a package with 69 State Street (the large building just up State Street on the corner with Pearl) -- starting bid $1.5 million.
We've always been curious about 63 State, so here's a quick backstory.
The building on the northeast corner of State and James was built in 1876 for the Mechanics and Farmers Bank of Albany. The bank had been located just around the corner on Broadway -- in a rather handsome building that dated back to 1814 -- but it moved so a federal building (now part of the SUNY admin complex) could could be constructed.
The Mechanics and Farmers Bank chose the architect Russell Sturgis to design its new building. He was from New York City and had studied in Europe -- his style leaned toward the Gothic (he was apparently influenced by a prominent Victorian critic who was a proponent of the Gothic style). Sturgis was known for designing buildings at Yale. And he had recently designed a set of two row houses at 298 and 300 State Street in Albany (at the corner with Dove). Those houses are still there.
These photos are a 1907 edition of The American Architect and Building News.
Very much more pretentious and much more successful in its pretentiousness is the picturesque Mechanics Bank in Albany which no sensitive wayfarer can have passed without being moved to some gratitude that its owners should have been moved to employ so artistic an architect. In dimensions and indeed in lay out it is only an ordinary three story house successfully circumvented by the fenestration by the quality of the detail and by the picturesque corbelled turret which emphasizes and adorns the angle. It is a very grateful object in Albany and would be a grateful object in any city of the class of Albany as an addition to its street architecture and as well with regard to its more specific expression as a banking house.
And years later in Architects of Albany, Cornelia Brooke Gilder would describe 63 State as "a sliver of architectural sophistication."
The M&F building is said to be one of the works for which Sturgis is now remembered.
The building looks odd today standing there all by itself, but that wasn't always the case. It originally stood at the corner of two rows of buildings, one along State and the other along James. (This Times Union archive photo from 1935 provides a good look at that corner.) For a while its immediate neighbor on State Street was the Albany Evening Journal offices (which would later move to a new headquarters down the street in what's now the SUNY admin building). The row along State would stand until the 1960s. The section right next to Mechanics and Farmers building was demolished for a bank parking lot (a bank that was not M&F). And farther along the row was knocked down for the office tower that's now 41 State.
And what of the Mechanics and Farmers Bank itself? It looks like it eventually became the Mechanics and Farmers Savings Bank, which merged with the Albany Exchange Savings Bank, becoming the Mechanics Exchange Savings Bank -- and at some point moved its location to 41 State. In the 1970s Mechanics Exchange was acquired by Dime Savings Bank, which in 2002 was acquired by Washington Mutual.
Most recently 63 State served as the office of Center for Economic Growth for more than a decade. In 2013 the org announced it was moving to 39 North Pearl Street. And the 63 State has been waiting for its next use since then.
This beautiful building appears at the 29 second mark in this PSA, filmed at James Street and State St, October 2014.
I always wanted to dig into that one, so you've saved me the effort. I know it was still functioning as a bank ca. 1990, but when it stopped I'm not clear.
Must say, though, what Albany could use is more sensitive wayfarers who can be moved to gratitude.
Manufacturers Hanover in the late 80s, before they merged with Chemical.
I recall going there to do some banking, probably in the 1970s. I believe my bank was Manufactures Hanover at that time.
Thanks for that story. It is one of my favorite buildings downtown but I didn't know much about it. I hope it finds a good owner and caretaker soon.
I remember when my father was the bank guard there in the 60's till they moved the bank to 112 State. I always thought is was so beautiful inside and out.
I miss the bar at 74 State. I used to go there just to sip wine and gaze across the street at 63.
I have long admired this small, elegant building. With it's gothic architecture suggesting a somewhat ecclesiastical presence, it would make a perfect chancery for our growing National Catholic Church of America. It would provide both offices, meeting rooms and a residence for the chancery staff. The location would also present opportunities to minister to people in downtown Albany.
Remember, too, that a donation to the church of this property would be both providential and tax deductible.
Is it protected by Historic Preservation status?? I sure hope so.

 Describe the details of the UBS scandal in Switzerland.

Switzerland has charged a former employee of the country’s largest bank, UBS, with selling German authorities the files of wealthy clients suspected of tax evasion, according to officials and media.
The man is accused of violating banking secrets, according to Switzerland’s public ministry, as well as involvement in espionage and money laundering.
They reported that in 2012 the banker allegedly sold information on the bank’s richest German clients to the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
North Rhine-Westphalia has bought stolen information several times over the past few years concerning people allegedly trying to evade taxes by not declaring money deposited in Swiss bank accounts, recovering around €2.1bn through these means.
UBS has had to pay a fine of €300m in Germany, while Credit-Suisse was fined €150m and private Zurich bank Julius Baer €50m.

 What do you think of Mike McGlinchey potentially joining the Atlanta Falcons?

The Falcons had a few problems last year on the offensive line and might be looking to add some depth in the draft in the form of a swing tackle or guard.
Notre Dame tackle Mike McGlinchey, as reported by the AJC , was invited to Atlanta for a pre-draft visit. McGlinchey does have a connection with Atlanta as he is Matt Ryan’s first cousin which could bode well for chemistry. Unfortunately McGlinchey is currently projected to go in the first round so if the Falcons were to pick him, they would have to ignore their top 3 needs.
With Jake Matthews becoming a free agent next year, is this a pick you would like to see the Falcons pull off? Let us know in the comments or on twitter @BirdsInTheBenz!

 Tell me something about the history of pandas!

In the long history of China, many interesting and even legendary records about the Giant Panda can be found. The Giant Panda, because of its much wider range of distribution, had more than a dozen regional names, such as Pixiu, Mo, Zouyu, Whitebear, Flowery-bear, Bamboo-bear and Iron-eating Animal.
The famous Chinese historian Sima Qian of the Han Dynasty notes in Records of the Historian: Records of the Five Emperors, as early as 4000 years ago, a head of a tribe, called Huangdi, used tamed wild animals to defeat another tribe headed by Yandi at Banquan (now Zhulu County of Henan Province). Among these animals, there were tigers, leopards, bears and Pixiu (Giant Pandas).
Shang Shu (A High Official in Ancient China) and the Book of Poetry compiled in the early years of West Zhou Dynasty also recorded that the skin of the Pixiu (Panda) was a tallage of rarity for the emperor. Giant Pandas were considered an animal that was brave and mighty as tigers and leopards; for that reason, ancient warriors were compared to Giant Pandas, whose anient name Pixiu was used to symbolize victory in all wars.
Book of Mountains and Seas, a classic of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period (2700 years ago), the Giant Panda is described as such: with white and black fur, it looks like bear; and found in Yandao County of Qionglai Mountain (the present Rongjing County, Sichuan Province), Giant Pandas were named Iron-eating Animal because it was said that it eats metals.
Essayist Sima Xiangru of the Han Dynasty (2000 years ago) recorded in On Shanglin Garden, the Emperor Hanwu once had many fowls and animals in Shanglin Garden for the emperor's hunting, and Mo (Giant Panda) was among the most important animals.
In the West Jin Dynasty (1700 years ago), Giant Panda was called Zhouyu. For it eats bamboo only, and does not hurt other animals, so it was seen as an "animal of justice', that is, an animal of peace and friendliness.When two forces meet in a fierce battle, if one part shows a flag marked "Zhouyu," the battle will stop: according to ancient principles of war, the flag marked "Zhouyu" means peace and friendship, and the battle should stop.
According to the Imperial Yearbook of Japan, on October 22, 658 A.D., the Emperess Wuzetian sent a couple of Whitebears (Giant Pandas) and 70 pieces of panda fur to Emperor Tianwu of Japan.
When the great poet of Tang Dynasty Bai Juyi was resting in a quiet residence, he felt cold and had a headache because of the chilly wind. Someone then gave him a screen on which a giant panda was painted. The screen brought about a magic effect to drive out his illness. Loving it very much, Bai Juyi wrote a poem, Ode to a Pixiu Screen on the Screen. By saying that giant pandas need a peaceful environment for survival, the poet expresses his concern about the misfortunes and famines brought to the common people by wars.
In Compendium of Materia Medica, the famous pharmacist Li Shizhen of Ming Dynasty recorded: bedding made of panda fur can prevent coldness and wetness, as well as pestilence and vice; oil of panda can penetrate the skin to cure tubers; and its urine, drunk together with water, can dissolve metal things eaten by mistake.
From ancient books and choreographies from the age as early as there were language records we can see that the giant panda has always been a mystical, legendary and rare animal. We can also be sure that giant pandas were once widely distributed in areas like Henan Province in North China, Shanxi Province of Northwest China, Hubei Province and Hunan Province in the middle and lower reaches of Changjiang River, Fujian Provinice in South China, Yunan Province, Guizhou Province, and surrounding mountain areas of the Sichuan Basin.

 Describe Ted Cruz's unpopularity in the Senate.

The list of folks who don’t like the first-term senator really knows no bounds.
The Dallas Morning News‘ editorial board chose not to endorse Ted Cruz in the upcoming Republican primary, instead telling voters to cast ballots for a 37-year-old Houston energy lawyer.
The board cited Cruz’s few legislative wins, infamous unpopularity in Washington, and his decision this week to vote against opening bipartisan debate over immigration as reasons to vote for his competitor, Stefano de Stefano, one of five candidates vying to clinch the Republican nomination on March 6.
Our senator has made few allies, even among Republicans in the Senate. He has a thin legislative record to show for it, though he has been more focused since the end of his bid for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. This shift toward productive results enabled him to push for billions in Hurricane Harvey relief for Texas and steer a bipartisan NASA authorization bill to passage. Texas would be well served if it saw more of that work from its junior senator.
Cruz’s elbows have been so sharp and his disdain for deal-making so pronounced, that he’s often stymied his own party’s agenda. In 2013, he helped shut down the government to protest the Affordable Care Act. Even fellow GOP senators criticized the effort as grandstanding. Upset over a setback over the Export-Import Bank in 2015, he called the Senate’s Republican leader a liar, poisoning prospects for progress.

 What is the Journal of Social, Political, and Economic Studies? Respond in 7 sentences.

The Journal of Social, Political, and Economic Studies is a quarterly journal published by the Council for Social and Economic Studies. It was founded in 1976 by anthropologist Roger Pearson, and was originally published by his Council for American Affairs, an American representative in the World Anti Communist League. It is now published by the Council for Social and Economic Studies, of which Pearson was the president as of 1982. It has been identified as one of two international journals which regularly publishes articles pertaining to race and intelligence with the goal of supporting the idea that white people are inherently superior (the other such journal being "Mankind Quarterly"). Notable contributors to the journal include Jack Kemp and Jesse Helms. In 1982, U.S. President Ronald Reagan wrote a letter to Pearson personally thanking him for the most recent issue of the Journal, which was never disavowed by the White House. The White House did, however, request that Pearson stop using the letter.

 Describe the structure of hypophosphoric acid. Respond in 4 sentences.

Hypophosphoric acid is a mineral acid with the formula H4P2O6, with phosphorus in a formal oxidation state of +4. In the solid state it is present as the dihydrate, H4P2O6·2H2O. In hypophosphoric acid the phosphorus atoms are identical and joined directly with a P−P bond. There is an isomeric form isohypophosphoric acid which has a different structure with non-identical phosphorus atoms, one of which has a directly bonded H atom and an oxidation state of +3, which is joined by a P−O−P bridge to the second phosphorus atom which has an oxidation state of +5.

 Describe the partnership between Liga MX and Major League Soccer and what possible efforts are being made to combine them with the 2026 World Cup coming up.

A combined North American football league between Canada, Mexico and the United States could be the main legacy of the 2026 World Cup, the president of the Mexican top-flight division Enrique Bonilla said on Wednesday.
The "United 2026" bid -- a combination of the three nations -- beat Morocco in the vote at FIFA's Congress in June to host the first 48-team World Cup. Although the majority of venues are proposed to be in the U.S., it is Mexican teams who have dominated on the continent, winning all 10 editions of the CONCACAF Champions League.
Liga MX also remains the most watched soccer league in the U.S. and attracts average crowds of more than 26,500. However, revenues for global TV rights and sponsorship across North America pale in comparison to the top leagues of Europe. Bonilla believes that is something that could be changed with a new combined continental top-flight division.
"It's a possibility, a North American league," Bonilla told reporters at the Leaders summit at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge stadium. "We have to determine how and see the pros and cons but I think that's a way to grow and to compete again.
"If we can make a World Cup then we can make a North American league or a North American Cup. The main idea is that we have to grow together to compete. If not, there is only going to be the rich guys in Europe and the rest of the world.
"We think this opportunity with the World Cup in 2026 opens the door for us to make a lot of things different and better."
Reached by ESPN FC for comment, MLS MLS Executive Vice President of Communications Dan Courtemanche said the league is excited to further its partnership with Liga MX.
"In March, Major League Soccer entered into a formal partnership with Liga MX, and last month we held our inaugural Campeones Cup between Toronto FC and Tigres," Courtemanche said.
"We have been discussing with Liga MX additional ways we can collaborate on and off the field, and we are excited about the future opportunities that exist between our two leagues."
Earlier this year, the MLS in the U.S. and Liga MX launched a partnership which included the introduction of the Campeones Cup, a match between the winners of each respective league.
The inaugural edition was played at the end of last month at Toronto FC who lost 3-1 to Mexico's Tigres UANL. Plans have also been discussed to play an All-Star game between the two leagues.
Despite plenty of leading clubs from Europe boosting their profile with transatlantic preseason tours, Bonilla said that distances and a lack of resources made trips in the other direction more challenging for Mexican clubs.
"We need to get out of our region," he said. "We have to go out more.
"The problem that we have is distance. Coming to Europe is quite difficult for our teams in getting there, and going down to South America is a long way also.
"So, it's quite difficult and what we have to do is we have to join forces with the MLS to get stronger together and then we can think of competing with Europe. Then we can have a strong market that can give us the resources to compete with the big financial market that is Europe."
The 2018-19 Liga MX regular season, the Apertura, is about to enter its closing stages. Defending champions Santos Laguna are third behind Club America on goal difference, with both teams trailing leaders Cruz Azul by two points.

 Explain the current state of the MV Agusta F4 superbike.

The crux of the situation comes from the mandate for Euro4 homologation, as the current MV Agusta F4 superbike does not meet. Operating on an emissions waiver right now, MV Agusta will have to stop selling the F4 at the end of the year, which creates a difficult situation.
Combine that issue with the decline in superbike sales, coupled with the delays made by MV Agusta’s financial troubles, and a new F4 superbike gets shuffled to the back of the pack, which also means that its model revision will not come before its emissions waiver lapses.
With one new model per year, this means that the next MV Agusta F4 superbike will come as a 2021 model, likely debuting at the 2020 EICMA show in Milan, Italy.
“Strategic-wise, after we phase out the product, it’s going to take time-to-market for like a couple years. There will be a 2019 and 2020 without a superbike. But, it is our decision…just because we want to make something different,” explained Castiglioni.
Because of this, MV Agusta will also be leaving the World Superbike Championship, with the current season possibly the last for the foreseeable future. The 2019 season seems up in the air for MV Agusta, but the 2020 season is definitely out.
MV Agusta will likely continue racing in the World Supersport Championship however, with the MV Agusta F3 675 showing strong results last season with American PJ Jacobsen at the helm (6th overall, with three podiums).
It is possible that we won’t see MV Agusta return to the World Superbike Championship, though that takes some explaining to understand.
As hinted, it is not all bad news for superbike fans, however. MV Agusta CEO Giovanni Castiglioni revealed to us his plan for the future F4 models, and it is certainly an interesting proposition.
Looking to build superbikes that are not constrained by arbitrary rules for production racing, MV Agusta will pivot its superbike offering into a more halo bike category, with the next-generation of the F4 being more of a one-liter hyperbike than a one-liter superbike.
This means that MV Agusta can play with new technologies and materials that would have been unviable or illegal under current superbike regulations.
“It’s not that we don’t believe in that market. We believe we can do something different,” he finished.
While Castiglioni is reluctant to get behind an electric sport bike model, the Italian sees a future for hybrid powerplants, which could use electric motors in supplementary way to augment power delivery.
This could mean seeing MV Agusta using electric drivetrain technology in performance hybrid application, like the “push-to-pass” or KERS technology that we have seen used successfully in Formula One.
“Hybrid, that is combustion and goes 350hp with a push of a button…that’s cool, like KERS,” exclaimed Giovanni.
The idea of a “superbike” that could have 300hp at the push of a button is certainly intriguing, and perhaps it is the shot in the arm that has been missing from the sport bike category, as of late.
Using the newest technology, and the most exotic materials, the next-generation MV Agusta F4 will certainly not be cheap, but it has an opportunity to be one of the more lusted after models from this historic Italian brand.
As we have seen from bikes like the Ducati 1299 Superleggera and Kawasaki Ninja H2/H2R – there certainly is a market for these ultra-premium, ultra high-tech machines.
“We will sell the F4 with a ‘last bike’ edition – it’s very, very limited. It’s basically Leon Camier’s bike for the street, and it’s a tribute to my dad, because that’s the bike he did,” explained Giovanni Castiglioni, giving a nod to the history of the original F4, which ended with a “Claudio Castiglioni” edition.
A WorldSBK-spec race bike with lights, Giovanni Castiglioni would later tell us that the F4 “Claudio” will have carbon fiber wheels, and a bevy of other top-of-the-line pieces, as an honor to his father, the late Claudio Castiglioni.
As such, we expect pricing to be stratospheric, and quantities to be minuscule, just like the original MV Agusta F4 CC, which also bore the elder Castiglioni’s name.
A swan song for the current F4, we will have a considerable wait for its encore, which should only make the “Claudio” edition more sought after by collectors.

 Describe the wealth of knowledge and understanding that you have acquired through discovering cryptocurrency.

When your altbags are weighing heavy and you haven’t checked your portfolio in days. When your long has been liquidated and that ICO has taken your ether and fallen silent. When regulators are cranking up the rhetoric and FUD is the only acronym in town. When all of these things conspire against you, it’s easy to get downhearted and forget about the many ways in which crypto has already made you rich.
Crypto can be a cruel mistress, giving with one hand and taking away with the other. One moment she’s rushing you to the top of the roller-coaster with your heart in your mouth and your Blockfolio in your hand. The next, she’s plunging you into the deepest of dips, drowning your gains and obliterating all hope.
At those low points, it’s easy to feel despondent. You were promised the moon and left in the gutter, with the jeers of your co-workers and spouse still ringing in your ears. You HODL’d when you were supposed to, bought the dip, and had the sense to avoid Bitconnect. You even read the white paper of that ICO you bought into – all 51 pages of it – and what have you got to show for it? Zip. Nada. Diddly squat. Perhaps you were just destined to stay poor. Or perhaps you just misunderstood what it means to be crypto rich.
Who taught you to 2FA everything after years of sloppy op-sec?
Who gave you a fundamental understanding of Austrian School economics and the ability to spot an inverted H&S at 100 paces?
Who taught you to value your privacy long before Facebook began leaking it, and who helped you swap your World of Warcraft addiction for an unquenchable craving for knowledge?
Who instilled a passion to learn that you haven’t experienced since you were in kindergarten? Who taught you that the only person in this life you can rely on is yourself, and that only through taking control of your data, your education, and your vocation can you control your destiny?
Oh yeah, crypto did all that.
You see that graph below? That’s not bitcoin. That’s your brain on bitcoin.
Think back to when you first discovered crypto, be it last year, 2013, or way back at the beginning. Now think of the pre-crypto you and the version that exists today. Odds are they feel like two different people. If the cryptoverse has captivated you, like it does to so many who drift into its realm, the you of today is likely to be smarter and more inclined to question everything. An autodidact intent on grabbing life by the cojones rather than letting it slip through their fingers.
Sure, there are bound to be trade-offs along the way. Perhaps you’ve turned into that guy who always brings up bitcoin at parties. Or that girl who now has “crypto trader” in all her social bios. You might find you’ve less in common with your former friends, and after a couple of tequilas are prone to embarking on rants about the turpitude of Asicboost and why Bram Cohen is probably Satoshi. Bitcoin isn’t guaranteed to make you a better person. But it’s almost certain to have made you a wiser and more self-deterministic one. As the saying goes, give a man crypto and you feed him for a day. Teach a man crypto and you feed him for life.
The truth is, you could walk away from all of this tomorrow and crypto would have set you up for life. Not financially necessarily, but in every other respect you’re better equipped than you’ve ever been for anything the world may throw at you. And there’s not a 51% attack or exchange hack in the world that can change that. Quantum computers could pop every private key and burn this whole damn cryptocurrency revolution to the ground and you’d emerge digitally poorer but inestimably richer.
It turns out that bitcoin’s killer feature isn’t blockchain or decentralization – it’s knowledge. Sure, brains alone won’t pay the bills, but the skills you’ve acquired since entering this space, and will continue to acquire for every day you remain, will benefit you more than any 10x altcoin ever could.
Cryptocurrency has already made you rich. You just didn’t notice.
Has discovering cryptocurrency given you a newfound thirst for knowledge? Let us know in the comments section below.

Threatening to serve legal papers to an educator in a room full of five year olds? Now that is malicious."

Sarah Palin on "hurt feelings"
Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin says politicians need to have thick skin "Just as I've got" Which of course is hilarious since she quit as Alaska's governor complaining about her hurt feelings from Alaska's bloggers reporting on her numerous ethics violations.
