Matthew Maurano's Research
The variants emerging from human resequencing studies, coupled with the growing number of common, disease-associated noncoding variants, has created a need for determining the consequences of variation in regulatory DNA. In contrast to the vast diversity of protein function, the elements that regulate gene expression recruit from a shared repertoire of transcription factors, offering the potential for a common regulatory sequence code.
The laboratory of Matthew Maurano, PhD, focuses on the following:
noncoding genetic variation affecting transcription factor occupancy and gene expression
regulatory variation and the genetics of human diseases and traits
long-distance regulation of gene expression in disease, development, and therapies
profiling of chromatin features and their relationship to nuclear organization and function
high-throughput approaches to assessing transcription factor activity

Shortly after entering orbit on April 23rd, astronauts aboard the SpaceX Dragon were told to prepare for a potential collision with an unidentified object. Without time to make evasive maneuvers, the astronauts scrambled into their pressurized suits, and viewers on Earth watched in shock of what might come. Ooops! Turns out the whole fiasco was just a false alarm.
According to U.S. Space Command, Crew-2 astronauts aboard the SpaceX Dragon were not endangered by rogue space junk, debris, a rock, aliens, or any other flying objects. Some reports suggest that an object flew within 25 miles of the capsule, but this measurement has not been confirmed by NASA. It's still unclear what the object was, how close it came to the capsule, and if it even existed in the first place.
Several news outlets are sharing a video, shown above, where a large round object flies near the capsule. This video was actually shot before the near-collision-false-alarm incident and shows a piece of SpaceX rocket debris tumbling through the void. It was not a threat to the crew.
Space Command is investigating the false alarm to try and figure out what went wrong. Crashing into foreign objects is a serious threat in space, and even a small piece of debris or space rock could tear through a capsule upon impact. Thankfully, the Crew-2 Astronauts are safe and arrived at the ISS shortly after this incident occurred. They will remain there for about 6 months before returning to Earth.

What is cohousing? How does the design of Cohousing promote social capital and community? How can participatory management and the creativity of permaculture design be empowering and motivating to the elderly? How does the FUV aim to create such an empowering environment?
Cohousing is an innovative type of housing that offers many possibilities for urban spaces, the environment and individuals as they age.
Cohousing incorporates structural design features that aim to facilitate the building of social capital and community, without compromising the privacy of individual households. As an intentional community, Cohousers actively participate in the process of design and management. Both cohousing and permaculture based communities follow a set of principles that require participation, ingenuity and creativity on the part of members. Participation in these communities is found to be empowering to aging and disabled individuals. In an aging population in need of empowerment/community, and in an ecological environment in need of repair, permaculture/seniors based cohousing communities offer a solution. The Fernwood Urban Village Cohousing Community is in the process of developing just such an environment.
Kylie Sandham , B.A. Vancouver Island University, Majors Anthropology and Sociology. Focus: Cohousing, Intentional Community, Homelessness. Kylie has presented on cohousing at the Western Division of the Canadian Geographers Conference as well as the Anthropology Conference held a VIU in 2009.

The next Call of Duty game will be a moon shoot, and it will be out of this world. Those statements are nothing to do with the game's ambitions, nor the enjoyment that can be gained from it - just that it will be set in space. Multiple sources confirm that 2016's Call of Duty will offer far future space combat with battles between sci-fi style factions. The latest spate of space-themed rumors add to Infinity Ward's spaceman themed New Year tweet regarding "reaching new heights" in 2016.


Farmers and ranchers need to keep improving how their inputs are released into the environment – but the trend seems to be improving water quality. Likewise, it's important to continue improving other areas of indirect water pollution like oil, grease and toxic chemicals from urban runoff and energy production. Continually seeking methods to safeguard our nation's supply of fresh waste from runoff– whether on the farm or in the city – is key to preserving healthy water sources.
In a recent study, 1,225 wells were tested in 56 networks (a geographic location containing several wells) across the United States. Thirteen of the 56 networks reflected increases in concentrations of nitrates. Five wells statistically had decreases in nitrates. The others remained the same.
Additionally, in many rural locations, farmers and their families drink water from wells on their own property, making it a personal responsibility to be judicious with farm management tools like fertilizer for their own health.

Arts & Entertainment Television
'Major Crimes': Why was the star killed off a hit show?
Sharon Raydor, played by Mary McDonnell, in the TNT series "Major Crimes."
(TNT)
Maureen RyanVariety
The saga of the final season of "Major Crimes" has had more twists than many a crime procedural -- but the most perplexing ones didn't necessarily occur onscreen.
Mary McDonnell's character, Sharon Raydor, died on the show -- several episodes before the series finale, which aired on Jan. 9. Even more unsettling was the fact that, in the final three episodes, the actress' name was removed from the credits of the show she'd been the star of for six seasons.
Yes, actor's names often do get taken out of a show's opening credits when that character has been killed off (or when producers want the audience to think that the character's dead). But it's rare for that to happen to the undisputed lead of a show -- and certainly as the show is reaching its conclusion.
The move drew outrage on social media from the show's fans, who noticed immediately. McDonnell declined to comment for this column, as did TNT and Warner Bros. TV, the studio that makes "Major Crimes." A studio spokesperson did point out, though, that the removal of an actor's name from episodes in which that performer did not appear was common practice at both "The Closer" and "Major Crimes" over the last 13 years, and conforms to contractual and guild requirements.
But the death of Sharon Raydor before the series finale also simply felt jarring, and it's hard not to view it as a storytelling misfire. As a casual viewer of "Major Crimes," that narrative decision never sat right with me. Given that Raydor's professional life revolved around solving crimes, why take the conclusion of the show's final case away from her? Why take away her agency, just when the critical denouement was playing out?
In an interview with Variety published last month, McDonnell addressed Raydor's death and talked about her reaction when creator James Duff proposed it. "I understood what he was talking about as an artist," McDonnell told Variety in December. "For himself and for the fans, he wanted to have some control over how the show ended and what kind of story he brought to his final season."
Here's why this should matter, even to those who don't watch "Major Crimes": We need to continue to have complex female characters at the center of on-screen stories. And every one that we lose hurts.
In this TV landscape, it's still unfortunately uncommon to see a woman as the lead character of a mainstream one-hour drama. There's a welcome increase in the appetite for that kind of programming all over the TV industry. And yet "Major Crimes" is done, despite still having performed well in the ratings in its final seasons; despite having a vocal and committed fan base.
"Major Crimes" may not have been the trendiest or edgiest show on the air, but it had a lead character of unusual moral fortitude and courage. The drama also demonstrated solid storytelling skills -- and many members of its ensemble had been together for the 13-year combined run of both "The Closer" and its spin-off, "Major Crimes." For a smoothly operating entity with a long track record of success, the ending of this 13-year franchise felt both abrupt and discordant.
Despite the various explanations offered for Raydor's untimely exit, it still doesn't make much sense to me. I can understand wanting to wrap up the show's narrative in a definitive way, but asking fans to watch the final arc of the show play out without its core character didn't feel like the best way to pay tribute to the show's group dynamics, or to the head of that team. Raydor's skillful leadership was important -- until she was just gone.
All things considered, it's a twist that the powers that be should have left on the cutting room floor.

Four Trends From October 2015 For The Ottawa Senators
Andrew DiRienzo November 3, 2015

As the saying goes, hope springs eternal at the outset of each new season. The hope for the Ottawa Senators was the lack of roster turnover would translate to greater success in 2015/16. Well, October has come and gone and let's just say things could have been better for the Sens. Here's a look at some of the trends that stood out during the team's first month of the season.
Home (not so) sweet home: After a long road swing, the prospect of returning home to play in front of friendly crowds – and reap the benefits of the sixth man – is an attractive one for most teams. The opposite, however, has been true of the Sens whose play on home ice has left plenty to be desired. Of their first 11 games this season, the Sens have played six at home, going 1-3-2 at Canadian Tire Centre. Some of those losses have been of the tough-luck variety – the Sens fell to the Nashville Predators, New Jersey Devils and Arizona Coyotes, despite arguably being the better of the two teams in each of those games – while others were well-deserved. The Sens have been polar opposites on the road, meanwhile, going 4-1-0.
Red, white and black and blue all over: The Sens are a physical team, ranking 12th in the league in hits (276), but that's not what black and blue is in reference to. The injury bug has spread around the Senators' dressing room like the common cold, sending player after player to the press box in the process. According to mangameslost.com, Ottawa has already lost 34 man games to injury, which puts them seventh in the league. Here's a summary of who's sat out: Chris Phillips (back, out indefinitely); Andrew Hammond (groin, missed three games); Clarke MacArthur (concussion, missed seven games); Mike Hoffman (groin, missed four games); Curtis Lazar (concussion, missed three games); and Marc Methot (concussion, missed three games). Hammond and Methot have since returned, and Lazar and Hoffman are expected to return Nov. 3 against the Montreal Canadiens, but MacArthur remains sidelined.

Sin(bin)ful behaviour: The Sens have worn out a path to the penalty box through 11 games, playing shorthanded 45 times – a figure that trails only the Winnipeg Jets who have been shorthanded 46 times. In only three games have the Sens been perfect on the penalty kill, including an astounding 7/7 against Montreal in Ottawa's home opener. More concerning than the fact Ottawa is one of the worst penalty killing teams in the league (its 75.5 PK percentage is sixth worst) is the coincidentally poor timing of its penalty killers' struggles. Ottawa has allowed a powerplay goal to fall behind 1-0 in four games and twice has allowed powerplay goals that tied the goal and were eventually responsible for sending the game to overtime. Ottawa's 13.5 PP percentage hasn't done much to negate the effects of its poor PK.
The little things: Aside from the bigger issues mentioned above, the Sens are failing in a few other aspects of the game. They've surrendered the first goal in eight of 11 games, and have lost six of those eight, compared to a perfect 3-0-0 record when scoring first – proving once again it pays to play while ahead. The Sens also haven't given their goaltenders much help in those games, surrendering an average of 32.5 shots per game. That number is down considerably from the bloated shots against totals earlier this season (and has been aided by the 30.5 shots the Sens now average per game). Finally, despite the introduction of 3-on-3 OT (a gimmick Erik Karlsson is none too happy with), the Sens have used the skills competition in four games. Fortunately for the Sens they've emerged victorious in two of those, but their strategy in the extra period undoubtedly needs some tinkering.

No One Was Watching is a work of fiction. These stories, although informed by factual events, do not intend to speak for people who endured living in out-of-home 'care' during part or all of their childhood but instead provide an alternative, imaginative entrée into this once-hidden Australian history. No One Was Watching is a creative response to a seminal Senate report of 2004 entitled Forgotten Australians. Just as earlier reports had revealed serious abuses perpetrated against Indigenous children and the unaccompanied children sent as migrants from Britain and Malta, this report found that the same types of violations were committed against institutionalised Australian-born, non-Indigenous children. The men and women who experienced such childhoods self-identify as 'forgotten Australians', 'care-leavers', 'care-survivors', 'Homies' or 'Wardies'.

Based on predictive algorithms written by Luke we were able to tell planners when they were about to make a mistake. Having this visibility of future performance enabled us to fix problems before they happened and as a result we saved millions of dollars in inventory.
Using FileMaker we extracted data from various parts of our ERP system, stored it in a Data Warehouse and with Luke's help I was able to create an Excel Dashboard to analyze our inventory based on 12 different dimensions. This kind of visibility was previously impossible.

Spinal cord injuries can be overwhelming for the victims and their loved ones as they deal with the aftershocks of the tragedy. In a prior article, we discussed spinal cord anatomy as well as spinal cord injury types and symptoms. Victims of spinal cord injuries experience several health issues, including potentially paralysis, breathing complications, headaches, chronic pain, bowel and urinary difficulties, inability to keep blood pressure normal, and reduced immunity to infection. In general, spinal cord injury sufferers have a shortened lifespan and require costly and specialized medical care throughout their lives.
If you or a loved one have been a victim of spinal cord injury, it is important that you understand that you are not alone. Our Kansas City spinal injury law firm has represented several victims of accidents who have suffered spinal cord injuries. Our legal team is prepared to answer your legal questions and can provide you a free, confidential legal consultation today. Please feel free to contact us.
We believe that educated clients make better choices regarding their case and medical recovery. To help those struggling with a spinal injury, we wanted to provide helpful information about spinal cord injuries. Our hope is that this information helps you make the best decisions possible regarding your medical and legal options.
If you still have questions or would like to speak to a spinal cord injury attorney, please call our law office at (816) 203-0143 or fill out the contact form below. Our Kansas City spinal cord injury attorney would be happy to offer additional guidance for your particular case.
Doctors normally evaluate spinal cord injury patients based on the region and type of spinal injuryand symptoms being experienced. If you fall, suffer a blow or lose consciousness, your spinal cord may have been injured. Headaches, loss or difficulty in mobility, tingling, and respiratory complications may also be indicators of a spinal cord injury.
Clinical evaluation: In a clinical test, the doctor will make a list of all the symptoms found. The doctor may test your blood and ask you to move your limbs. The movement in the eyes may also be checked, and other tests may be completed to note the symptoms present.
Imaging tests: The doctor may ask for MRI or other radiological imaging, such as a myelogram, to examine your spine, spinal cord, and brain.
In contrast to other types of injury, an important part of spinal injury treatment happens before going to the hospital. The chances of survival increase greatly if one stays still, avoids spinal motion and gets quick emergency care.
After being transported to the hospital, medical providers will concentrate on keeping an injury victim stable and may usea collar to keep the neck still. This can be critical to survival and to avoid further damage. In addition, breathing assistance, blood transfusions and other courses of action may be required to deal with the urgent symptoms.
After the patient is stabilized and a full evaluation and assessment is completed, the doctor will work with the victim's family to develop up a course of medical care for treating the spinal injury.
Stem cell therapy, which is currently being researched to regenerate damaged tissues.
One's mental health is a major aspect of recovery from a spinal cord injury. According to the National Institute of Health, Nearly half (48.5%) of those with spinal cord injury suffered mental health problems of depression (37%), anxiety (30%), clinical-level stress (25%) or post-traumatic stress disorder (8.4%). Mental health has been shown to have a direct effect on physical health, so maintaining soundness of mind is key to one's overall recovery.
Last but not least, it is vital that the victim of a spinal cord injury has a lot of emotional support fromloved ones and caregivers. Caregivers can provide emotional and mental support and also help coordinate medical care and treatment. They can also help with other personal affairs of the injury victim.
In cases where the spinal cord injury does not lead to paralysis, the chances of recovery are best. Nonetheless, victims who are paralyzed still have a chance of recovery and that probability grows as research progresses.
In a recent report, the National Institute of Health reported the discovery of a radical new treatment for spinal cord injury patients, and we are optimistic that more progress lies ahead in the near future. Studies focusing on methods of stimulating the activity and regeneration of injured nerve cells are in progress at the moment. Some of these include neurotransmitters, electrical stimulation, Nogo blockers, Glatiramer, potassium channel blockers, and neuroconstructive and neurogenetic solutions with stem or other cell implants.
While many of these treatments are still being researched, treatments in general should be attempted as soon as possible to strengthen the muscles beneath the injured region and raise the chances of recovery. Physical and occupational therapy are very important during this period.
If you or your loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury as a result of the negligence of another party in Kansas or Missouri, please contact our Kansas City spinal cord injury lawyer as soon as you can to protect your rights and maximize your legal recovery.
Spinal cord injury cases are very different from other types of injury. To maximize your legal recovery, your spinal cord injury lawyer should be well-versed in the complexities of legal and medical matters, and ready to educate the insurance company of the staggering lifetime expenses of medical care, economic losses, pain and suffering associated with spinal injuries.
Our Kansas City spinal injury lawyer has represented many spinal cord injury survivors in the Kansas City area and throughout Missouri and Kansas. We are ready to answer your legal questions and provide a free, no-obligation legal consultation. Please call our law office at (816) 203-0143 or fill out the contact form below. Our Kansas City spinal cord injury attorney would be happy to assist.

Spiel des Schpiel 2010 comments
deacondavid - Tue, 06/08/2010 - 10:49
I haven't finished listening to the whole episode yet (almost there, but not yet), but I wanted to make a few comments before I forgot to do so...
1) While I'm a big fan of the podcast, these episodes where you go over the SdJ nominees are - by far - my favorites each year. This year, unlike previous years, the titles are pretty well known, but it is still cool to see a set of detailed reviews of all of the nominees collected in a couple of podcasts to allow all to compare them using a similar set of criteria. I'm really looking forward to hearing the second episode!
2) You might not know that the Kinderspiel des Jahres started as a special award that was given annually and remained so for many years (1989-2000) before it developed its own juried award. Similarly, the "Spiel des Jahres Plus" award may continue as a special award for a few years they develop a pool of judges. Of course, they have had special awards almost every year, so this could vanish next year. Time will tell...
3) You mentioned Michael Schacht's "Die Golden Stadt" (The Golden City) as a game that might have gotten snubbed. It might have been snubbed, but if it was, it was snubbed last year - it was a Nuremberg 2009 game that shipped almost as soon as it was shown. It didn't make it to the Z-Man edition until early this year, which may be what confused you.
As always, a great show! Keep up the good work!
sconway - Wed, 06/09/2010 - 15:11
Thanks, David! We really have to scramble to get the first Spiel des Schpiel episode out the door on time, so it's always great to know our efforts are appreciated. :)
I did not know the Kinderspiel started as an offshoot from the main SdJ. Makes perfect sense, that the SdJ PLUS might evolve along a similar path, especially knowing there's a precedent for it. I certainly hope it does. I don't see the down side to having 3 awards: one for young players, one for families, and one for more experienced players/families. It would only create more attention for the game biz, I would think. I suppose one could argue having a 3rd award dillutes the prestige of the original, but to me it's apples and oranges. It is very hard to shoehorn all the games into a singular category and use the same criteria to judge them all. Case in point, this year's nominees!
Good call on Golden Stadt. I thought it was an Essen release last Fall. Obviously, I didn't do my homework on that one.

Funny - I downloaded Roll through The Ages onto my iPhone fifteen minutes before listening to the Spiel. I then started kicking myself that had I waited I could have had the chance of a free version. Grief turned to relief when I heard that the district of Gormenghast was not included in the deal.
Interesting choices for SdJ this year - I'm not really sure what it tells us about the jury. I suspect that this one is anyone's call.
A little surprising that Valdora didn't make the cut (although personally I'm not that enthused by the game) but maybe I just don't have my dates right. Actually I'm not a big fan of awards. Too many loop holes.
The Zombie theming of Jaeger und Sammler certainly sounds cool. Enough with the stone age stuff... on with the zombies.
Hey how about a zombie themed Dixit ? or a Zombie Identik ?
Valdora and the Spiel des Jahres
deacondavid - Mon, 06/14/2010 - 11:02
Steerpike said:
This year's nominee list certainly points out how confusing figuring out the selection window for the Spiel des Jahres can be! Four of the games have been out for at least two years. In the case of three of them (Portrayal/Identik, Roll Through the Ages, Dixit), it took that long for a German language edition to hit the market. The fourth involves a reissue of an older title that saw limited distribution originally, with the new edition also being substantially redesigned (A la Carte). While it is confusing, it is also sort of neat to see the German market having to play catch up with the designs that are being put out in other markets as much as we are having to play catch up with the releases outside of the English-speaking world.
Valdora was a recommended game last year. Like The Golden City, it was a Nuremberg 2009 show title that shipped very close to the show - it just took a while to get to a US publisher to agree to pick it up.
I would have to think that a Zombie-themed Identik might appeal to me a bit more than the original, but only a little bit more. Portrayal is an interesting design and it is innovative, it's just not a game that I find enjoyable. I feel the same way about PIctionary, so it must be something about drawing games. Since Dixit sold out almost as soon as it was released in the US, I have not gotten a chance to play it. It's been unavailable so long that I am starting to wonder if Asmodee is hanging on to their supply so that they can slap the SdJ award on it if they should happen to win... but then that is starting to make me sound like a conspiracy nut!
Even more coverage?
J Moody - Wed, 06/09/2010 - 18:05
Sorry if I am out of line, but it seems you gave even more attention to the recommended list than in the past. Perhaps the more familiar and available list of nominees allowed for expanded coverage? Either way (my mistake or actual bonus coverage), very cool.
I have to remember to save the next episode for the drive to Columbus. Always hard to resist, but well worth it.
same as last year, more or less
sconway - Fri, 06/11/2010 - 05:28
Originally, we only mentioned the recommended games.
Starting last year, though, we decided to give them more attention. There are always several on the extended lists that I would never had known about were it not for the jury's selections. I figure, that's reason enough to spread the word.
J Moody - Fri, 06/11/2010 - 19:22
I have a fickle memory.
My perception was that it was even better and more in depth this year, so I'll just go with that.
I don't think it likely that Doritos were actually 'now with more nacho cheese flavor' each and every time, but that's what the bag said, right?

I finished A Game of Thrones over the weekend, and was going to take a break from the series, but the song of the Sirens of the Seven Kingdoms reached my ears, and now I'm ankle-deep in A Clash of Kings-looking forward to the book club.
synchronized reading
Good timing! I actually just finished A Game of Thrones last week and Dave should finish it within the week.
I know *exactly* what you mean. After 800+ pages I figured I would want a break. But I could easily slip right into the next 1000 page tome ready for more.
I just purchased AGoT living card game, so we'll be reviewing it as well as the board game this Fall. I can't wait!
Too soon for reviews?
Gregory IS - Tue, 06/15/2010 - 16:01
Occasionally, an artist I have avidly followed for years suddenly breaks a new level of success with a piece that leaves me colder than earlier more obscure stuff. The comic artist Chris Ware, for example, wowed Time Magazine and the NYT with Jimmy Corrigan, which I found a bit tedious compared to his more cogent ACME work. Martin is edging in this direction for me as well. While the first Stark book whipped along like a rocket to a terrific cliffhanger, the pace in the subsequent books, especially the second, flags so badly that I began to suspect that Martin, realizing he had a cash cow by the udder, was trying to pad out the series by a whole extra novel- maybe two. (This is one of the big reasons I stopped reading fantasy as a kid, in the days of the umpteenth chronicles of Amber, the Overinflated Spare Tire of Time and the oh-my-goodness-yet-another-chronicle-of-Thomas-Covenant-we-found-down-the-back-of-the-sofa. I like the idea that the story I'm reading will eventually have an ending, preferably before the author in question dies.) Your experience may vary and I very much hope it does but if these books are working for you, I urge you to seek out Martin's incandescent earlier work including Sandkings, an exemplary collection of horror stories, Tuf Voyaging, a tongue-in-cheek science fiction epic and especially a nasty little piece of work called "Meathouse Man", one of the most emotionally disturbing short stories I've ever read. No really. You have been warned.
Even more than that, though, all board game fanatics owe it to themselves to pick up Iain M. Banks' definitive word on the subject, The Player Of Games.
I'll reserve judgment
sconway - Mon, 06/21/2010 - 02:33
I'll reserve judgment until I have read the entire series. So far, I am completely engaged and interested in each thread of the narrative.
Thanks for the Ian M Banks recommendation. I have a few other titles by him, but not that one.
Here's one for you: The Squares of the City by John Brunner. The plot of the book is based on an actual chess match. Brunner is a vastly underappreciated sf novelist. Squares is fun, but Stand on Zanzibar and The Shockwave Rider.
JohnnyDollar - Wed, 12/15/2010 - 08:28
I finally caught up on this episode on a 14 hour cross-country drive, I love my iPod :-)
(I had to pull the car over to play along w/Portrayal/Identik!)
Nice podcast and it was interesting to hear about the recs in addition to the nominees.
So for Tobago, you guys said something along the lines of that it was particularly innovative b/c it was the first game to turn the "deduction" games on it's head by making the players clues determine the eventual location... but wouldn't Android be the first game to come up with this idea? The different detectives play "evidence" and the eventual culprit is the one with the most evidence, from what I understand. So the culprit essentially does not exist at the beginning of the game and only after the game play does he/she become designated. Sounds very similar to the Tobago idea.

Gabrielle Union Slams Stacey Dash: 'Who's That?'
"I heard of a crazy lady once, but I don't know what her name is."
Jason Merritt/GC Images
By Lauren Porter	· Updated October 27, 2020
Gabrielle Union isn't here for any of Stacey Dash's nonsense. In fact, she'd like to forget about her all together.
After Dash's comments on Fox & Friends last week regarding the irrelevance of BET's existence, CBS News reports the Being Mary Jane actress had her own words for the actress.
Did Stacey Dash Just Say There Shouldn't Be a Black History Month?
"Who's that?," Union asked CBS facetiously at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. "Who's Stacey Dash? Is she, like, related to Dame Dash? Was she on Roc-A-Fella (Records)?"
Union, who stars on the BET series, said awards show like the NAACP Image Awards and BET's annual award celebration are a necessity for the Black community in order to honor each other's accomplishments.
"If you don't see yourself reflected in mainstream awards, you tend to create your own," Union added. "The more that we focus on inclusion and a true representation of this country, I think that crazy lady will have less to say."

What Coinbase's Rise Says to the World
Coinbase's listing on Nasdaq sends a powerful signal of legitimacy to the U.S. crypto community, as well as to the crypto-curious in the traditional financial sector.

Crypto exchange Coinbase is going public tomorrow. This may be the the clearest signal yet that the digital asset industry is here to stay.

Coinbase goes public (tomorrow)
Coinbase's listing on Nasdaq sends a powerful signal of legitimacy to the U.S. cryptocurrency community, as well as to the crypto-curious in the traditional financial world. CoinDesk is providing round-the-clock coverage on this landmark listing.
In any other industry, this might not be a story. But because this is the crypto sector it is a significant one, and for good reason. Coinbase going public is possibly a model for other crypto companies looking to navigate U.S. federal securities laws, and Coinbase's status as a Securities and Exchange Commission-regulated company might make it more attractive to investors on the fence about the digital asset space.
Breaking it down
A cryptocurrency company going public in the U.S. isn't a first for the industry. Diginex, a blockchain services firm that runs the EQUOS.io exchange, went public last year and a number of other companies have also announced their intent to do the same. But Coinbase is the largest and most well-known exchange to go public in the U.S.
"I think this is a story because it's crypto-related," said Nelson Rosario, a partner at Smolinski Rosario Law. "It will add some measure of legitimacy to the space, just in general because Coinbase will now be a publicly traded company, apparently at a very high valuation and that will make people think a bit more seriously about companies in general in the space."
Coinbase also benefits from its role in the crypto ecosystem, Rosario said: The exchange is one of the best-known entry points for individuals interested in cryptocurrencies, not to mention one of the older ones at nine years old.
Investing in $COIN may serve as a proxy investment for cryptocurrencies themselves. In other words, Coinbase stock could serve as an alternative for those investors who are not ready or able to directly invest in cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin, though it is now over a decade old and has exceeded $1 trillion in market capitalization, is still a pretty young, at times very volatile investment. It makes sense that investors wary of these traits might look to a (theoretically) more stable alternative.
Existing companies with exposure to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies – cough, MicroStrategy – could also be sort of seen as proxy investments into those cryptocurrencies, though Coinbase has the added benefit of having a business that is explicitly crypto focused.
"Obviously some traditional investors might still be loath to actually purchase cryptocurrency but they might see the value in owning a share of the pie," said J. Ashley Ebersole, a former SEC Enforcement attorney and current partner at Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner.
Rosario said that while investors could already invest in the digital asset world, Coinbase's sheer size and role in the sector might be the tipping point for some investors who were previously cautious about entering the space.
Kristin Boggiano, co-founder and president of the U.S.-based CrossTower, agreed, telling CoinDesk that anyone who owns Coinbase stock "will be able to share in the development and growth of the digital asset industry."
Coinbase can also provide a roadmap for the rest of the digital asset industry. Eschewing the traditional initial public offering (IPO) model, or the new and fairly hyped special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) model, Coinbase is just listing its shares on Nasdaq directly. Other companies can follow this model if they are interested in going public, Rosario said.
This is a crypto-specific example, though, Ebersole noted, saying, "It's sort of blazing a trail but I don't know that it's changing the regulatory picture around what this space is actually doing and doing in a compliant way."
Boggiano said Coinbase is blazing that trail. In her view, the exchange has established "an operational framework that has passed SEC standards," which other exchanges like hers can look to moving forward.
Coinbase going public should also add a new level of transparency that the industry largely lacks, Ebersole said.
"If you're an investor or a watcher in the crypto industry, you've had white papers and that kind of thing to date," he said. "Depending on the issuer of a crypto asset, you've had various degrees of disclosure and information out there but having an entity that's SEC-regulated and a reporting company is a whole different ball game."
Dante Disparte departs Diem
Dante Disparte, who just served two years as the Diem Association (formerly Libra) executive vice chair, is joining crypto payments startup Circle as chief strategy officer and head of global policy.
"I've spent a good portion of the last two years really in a front row seat at what was the global policy conversation," he told me.
In his view, USDC is a trusted payment instrument, "and Circle is doing it at the operational level."
In his blog post introducing Disparte, Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire wrote that the new executive would oversee the company's global expansion operations.
In practice, this involves engaging with policymakers and adding to Circle's existing licenses, Allaire said.
"This is about constructive engagement and actually constructing policies and we're in the proverbial second inning, so there's just a ton of work to do," he said.
Disparte said this effort would have to go deeper than publishing white papers or holding forums in favor of "demystifying" the actual use cases blockchain-based tools can support.
These use cases also need to align with the public interest, he said, meaning cryptocurrencies (like Circle's USDC) would have to support the underlying security found in the banking system, but provide the benefits of being an internet-enabled network.
"What you've done is decoupled being banked with costly fixed infrastructure like brick-and-mortar banks," he said. "What we have to do is decouple being banked with costly KYC requirements … [this] doesn't mean you necessarily introduce more risk."
When ETF
We are at the first public comment deadline for the VanEck/Cboe bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) application and I gotta tell ya, not a lot of people weighed in. I'm writing this on a Friday (the comment deadline) and there are exactly five comments right now. That being said, people can still file comments, and the SEC has almost a month to make an initial decision on whether to approve, reject or extend the process.
The SEC also announced it was reviewing WisdomTree's bitcoin ETF application (also filed with Cboe BZX), while Kryptoin filed for an ETF, bringing the total number of active applications to eight nine (a ninth was filed between me writing this and this being published).
Important details:
The SEC will make an initial decision to approve/reject or extend the comment period for the VanEck bitcoin ETF application by May 3.
The SEC will publish the WisdomTree proposal in the Federal Register within the next few days, which will tell us what the comment deadline and initial decision date will be.
The other applications need their exchange partner (like Cboe BZX or NYSE Arca) to file the 19b-4 forms, which will move the chains to the SEC's side of the field.
Biden's rule
Key: (nom.) = nominee, (rum.) = rumored, (act.) = acting, (inc.) = incumbent (no replacement anticipated)
We might see Gary Gensler and Rohit Chopra confirmed to their positions as chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission and director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, respectively, sometime this week. Additionally, Michael Mosier is now the acting director of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, after former Director Kenneth Blanco stepped down.
The Accidental Crypto Lobbyist: My colleague Danny Nelson was trying to report on potential crypto legislation in West Virginia when he stumbled across some language he didn't understand, but which would appear to have essentially banned crypto. So, like any good journalist, he mass-emailed every co-sponsor on the bill and asked. In response, two of the co-sponsors amended the bill to exclude that language.
Mysterious Filings Suggest Impostor Is Using Grayscale's Name to Pump Obscure Coins: By me: Someone registered a pair of Grayscale Trusts that resemble the legitimate ones, but aren't. The trusts, registered as LLCs, were for Nahmii and Theta. The teams behind both cryptocurrencies, as well as Grayscale itself, say they had nothing to do with these trusts. The question, then, is who did register these entities, and is this just a somewhat-more-sophisticated pumping scheme?
Bank of Russia Plans Prototype for Its Digital Ruble Design in December: The Russian central bank has published a new concept paper for the proposed digital ruble, with a prototype tentatively expected by this December, my colleague Anna Baydakova reports. Bank of Russia First Deputy Governor Olga Skorobogatova said during a press conference that this prototype would enable smart contract support and the bank is looking to support offline payments.
South Korean Prosecutors Sell (and Profit Off) Bitcoin Taken From Criminals: South Korean prosecutors made some 12 billion won (just under $11 million) after selling bitcoin seized in 2017 from the operator of an illegal pornography site, CoinDesk Korea's Felix Im reported last week. At the time the bitcoin was seized, it was worth about 270 million won ($240,000).
Outside CoinDesk:
(Missoulian) Officials in Missoula County, Montana, have enacted local crypto mining ordinances which, among other things, address climate change issues by directing where mining facilities can be located and what sort of energy sources it can use. The Missoulian quotes County Commissioner Dave Strohmaier in explaining the new ordinances: "We've made a commitment to pursue 100% clean electricity in our Missoula urban area by the year 2030 … And the last thing we wanted to do was to see any industries in our county be headed in the opposite trajectory and set those goals backward."
(Business Post) I missed this earlier, but courtesy of my former colleague Joon, here's my new favorite headline: Bono whiskey firm brands casks with blockchain tokens.

Q: why does http use CRLF as line delimiter? As I know, use LF as line delimiter is quite popular, but I'm wondering why many text protocol like HTTP, FTP use CRLF as its line delimiter?
I don't think these protocols are invented for old typewriters, so is there any historic reason for this? I tried to search it over google and stackoverflow and wikipedia but do not get any reasonable information.
Thanks

A: CR-LF as newline is the Internet standard, which long predates HTTP; I believe it was originally specified as part of TELNET in RFC 158 in 1971. The RFC Editor has a page explaining some of the history. This is the convention used by other Internet protocols such as FTP and SMTP, so it only makes sense for HTTP to be consistent with them.

Trade Group Representing Yellow Cab Owners Endorses 20 MPH Bill [Updated]
A major taxi medallion owners' group has come out in favor of the bill to lower speed limits to 20 miles per hour on residential streets citywide.
The Metropolitan Taxicab Board of Trade represents the owners of 5,200 of the city's 13,000 yellow cab medallions. It has also raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Bill de Blasio's mayoral campaign. In a statement released after yesterday's council hearing, the organization said a 20 mph speed limit in city neighborhoods would reduce crashes and deaths.
For over 60 years, MTBOT has made safety a priority for the thousands of drivers it represents and the millions of passengers they serve. That is why we strongly support Int. 535, a life-saving measure that would reduce the speed limit from 30 mph to 20 mph exclusively on residential side streets, making the City safer for our drivers, passengers and neighbors.
This important bill should not be used as an excuse to target drivers for tickets, but rather it should bring all New Yorkers together for a common goal, to make our streets safer, especially for our children and elderly residents. Research shows that 20 mph residential speed limits work — including in London and Tokyo, where reduced speed limits have cut the number of fatal crashes on residential streets by as much as half.
It's time New York joined other major cities in passing this sensible, life-saving legislation. MTBOT calls upon the Department of Transportation to support Int. 535 and make our streets safer for all New Yorkers.
This is a welcome endorsement, if not an altogether altruistic one. There is no doubt that slower speeds mean fewer crashes, and the MTBOT is simply acknowledging that crashes are detrimental to the taxi business. Not that MTBOT doesn't deserve credit for recognizing reality, as it's more than can be said of David Pollack and the Committee for Taxi Safety.
At Thursday's City Council hearing, Pollack claimed a 20 mph speed limit on residential streets would "create confusion" for cab drivers. Pollack said cabbies would be distracted by new speed limit signage, and that lower speeds make streets less safe.
Speaking of reactionary nonsense, in a letter to Gary Altman, legislative counsel for the City Council, AAA New York said the group opposes the 20 mph bill because it "effectively eliminates the role of traffic engineers."
Update: In response to this post, we got a pretty remarkable email from MTBOT spokesperson Michael Woloz:
It is really a misrepresentation of MTBOT's intention and position to say that we are "simply acknowledging that crashes are detrimental to the taxi business." This is a human issue, not a business issue. I was in the back row at the City Council hearing yesterday. I'm a father. I live on a side street in New York CIty. MTBOT members have families. Their drivers have families. This affects all of us as humans first. No one could have walked away from that hearing, given the emotional testimony of a family who recently lost a child to an accident with a car, without being moved. We realized that we can do more than shed tears — we can actually help, we can support the bill, we can work with advocates, we can work with the city council, we can raise awareness. So that's what we are looking to do — that's a human reaction, not a business calculation.

Actor-filmmaker Satish Kaushik says he has locked the script for the much-anticipated sequel to his 2003 blockbuster "Tere Naam", which featured superstar Salman Khan in the lead. The director said he is yet to decide the cast for the film. "We have the script ready. Though I can't reveal much about the film, I can say that it's a love story of a gangster. We haven't thought about the cast yet as we have just locked the script. We will get started with the film once work on my next production 'Kaagaz' is over," Kaushik told PTI.
When asked if he has discussed the script with Salman, Kaushik denied approaching the 53-year-old star. "Tere Naam", which gave Salman's career a much-needed push following a series of box-office debacles in early 2000s, is touted one of his most memorable performances. His portrayal of college rowdy Radhe Mohan was well-received by the audiences and his look from the film became a rage with the fans. The movie also featured Bhumika Chawala and Ravi Kishan.
A report on Mumbai Mirror is anything to go by. "The sequel is a new story, Satish finished writing the script recently. It is a love story revolving around a gangster and will be set in North India," a source close to the development told the daily.
On the related note, Salman Khan has his hands full with interesting Bollywood project. The actor is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Bharat alongside Katrina Kaif. He is also shooting for his cop drama Dabangg 3 and has Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Inshallah in the pipeline.
