3 part interview with Charles Hoskinson. excerpt from Part 3:A number of lawmakers likely write off crypto as just a right-wing techno-libertarian fantasy. How you might appeal to policymakers on the left like Elizabeth Warren and Janet Yellen, who have often publicly criticized cryptocurrencies from a variety of angles? The philosophical issue that I think is very difficult for people in certain areas of the left. If you are of the belief that everything needs to be controlled by a regulator, a bureaucracy, or the heavy hand of government, you're always going to be uncomfortable with a technology that says...

Pastor Jimmy Morales of the Lone Mountain Calvary Chapel in Las Vegas refused to bow to Gov. Sisolak’s CV19 emergency orders last year, continuing to hold in person, no mask services on Sundays throughout the “pandemic”. So one day after someone filed a complaint with the governor’s office, Pastor Morales got a call from the Attorney General’s office on behalf of Gov. Sisolak. He ordered the Pastor to comply with Gov. Sisolak’s emergency orders to wear masks and to limit in person Sunday services to 50 people or be arrested. By this time, June 2020, Gov. Sisolak had increased occupancy...

In Damascus, an ISIL siege is stymied by a 43-day sandstorm of biblical proportions that was foreseen by a single man. For accurately predicting—and preaching throughout—the cataclysm, this figure comes to be known and revered as al-Masih (Mehdi Dehbi), aka “The Messiah.” Having commanded the ear of the poor and downtrodden, al-Masih leads his new Palestinian followers across the desert to the Israeli border, thereby instigating an international incident about which he seems blissfully unconcerned. “Throw away your assumptions about God. Stop clinging to what you think you know. In this hour, mankind is a rudderless boat. Cling to me,”...

He also compares the European Union to the mafia The Who‘s Roger Daltrey says Brexit won’t affect British musicians. The frontman, who has previously defended his pro-Brexit views, was asked whether Brexit would be ‘bad for British rock music’. “No. What’s it got to do with the rock business?” he told Sky News. “How are you going to tour in Europe?” the interviewer replied. “Oh dear. As if we didn’t tour Europe before the f****** EU,” he said. “Oh give it up!” Daltrey then compared the EU to the mafia, saying: “If you want to be signed up to be...

MORAN, Wyo. — At around 10 p.m. Thursday at the Diamond Cross Ranch here, Chris Rock stepped up on a small platform, looked out over a few hundred people huddled around a wildly flickering bonfire, and leaned in to his convocation. “I touched a moose!” he exclaimed, “and the moose said to me, ‘Hey, there’s a lot of …’” — well, let’s just say people who don’t ordinarily gather on a ranch in Wyoming. He nodded toward the fire. “Tomorrow night that will be a cross,” he deadpanned. Hip-hop, he said, is “the first art form created by free black...

The Indiana State Police are investigating an allegation of suspicious and fraudulent voter registration information being submitted to the Hendricks County Clerk’s Office and the Marion County Voter Registration Office. This investigation began in late August and state police detectives have consulted with the Indiana Secretary of State Office about the investigation, since that office is charged with keeping statewide voter registration information. The Indiana State Police does not normally speak to specific information of ongoing investigations. However, due to the potential impact these allegations may have on individual voters we are sharing the following information: At the time of...

Wilco Cancels Upcoming Show In Indianapolis Because Of Anti-Gay 'Religious Freedom' Law Chicago-based rock band Wilco has canceled a show planned for May 7 in Indianapolis, Indiana, because of the anti-gay "religious freedom" bill signed into law by Gov. Mike Pence (R) last week. The band tweeted Monday that they wouldn't perform in the state, saying the Religious Freedom Restoration Act "feels like thinly disguised legal discrimination": The band is not the first group to speak out against the law, which would allow any individual or corporation to cite its religious beliefs as a defense when sued by a private...

Mark Eskelsen View full sizeOregonian file photoMark Eskelsen had a couple of demands of a 9-1-1 dispatcher last weekend, telling the dispatcher, "I need a hug and a warm cup of hot chocolate." A homeless man who sneaked into a Beaverton hot tub, then called 9-1-1 to ask for towels, hot chocolate and a hug got cold comfort from police instead. Mark Eskelsen called emergency dispatchers from his cell phone about 7:10 a.m. Sunday, identified himself as "the sheriff of Washington County," and asked for medical help. The dispatcher asked Eskelsen, who later admitted he wasn't the sheriff, what was...

If President Obama has a big economic initiative up his sleeve, as he hinted recently, now would be a good time to let the rest of us in on it. News on Friday confirmed that the economy was far weaker in the second quarter than originally believed, growing at 1.6 percent versus an initial reading of 2.4 percent. Grim reports on housing sales indicate that the slowdown has continued. In a normal recession, housing would lead the way up from the depths. Today, it appears to be leading the way back down.

Captain America prevailed today in Indianapolis, even though he appears to be Spanish these days. Jorge Lorenzo and his superhero-inspired helmet took top honors at the second Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix, also stopping to pick up a red, white and blue toy shield to round out the costume for his victory lap. He then capped it off with a Helio Castroneves-style spiderman climb up the Turn 1 fence- yet another classic race-win celebration from the young Spanish star!

INDIANAPOLIS -- A man who made it his life's mission to feed those who could not adequately feed themselves died Monday night at the age of 93. Lucious Newsom (pictured) had been hospitalized at St. Francis in Beech Grove. He had run a pantry mission for 20 years and he had been honored just two months ago for decades of service. "I don't know that the man can be replaced," said Phillip White, who lives in Newsom's neighborhood. "I think he was a visionary to do what he's done in this community." Gov. Mitch Daniels visited Newsom in the hospital...

A political action committee is auctioning off a 30GB iPod on eBay (EBAY) that it once tried to give to John Kerry. Information Policy Action Committee, which claims it's dedicated to protecting digital rights, started a campaign last year to send video iPods loaded with freely-distributed music and video to key U.S. senators like Kerry. The group says Kerry sent the iPod back because of his political ties to the music and entertainment industry. Here's the irony: IPAC, which says it advocates for independent musicians, wants you to bid on a product made by Apple (AAPL), which has gotten cozy...

WARSAW, Poland - Lawmakers have drawn up a resolution naming Jesus Christ as the honorary king of Poland, but have failed to win support from the country's powerful Roman Catholic church. Lawmakers for the ruling Law and Justice party and League of Polish Families as well as the opposition Peasants Party back the resolution, said Szymon Ruman, spokesman for parliamentary speaker Marek Jurek. However, the proposal currently has the support of only 46 members in the 460-seat parliament, well short of the necessary 231 votes to pass. Ruman said the resolution would likely be voted on sometime after Jan. 1....
