  • Every single president in the history of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been white, male and a banker. 
  • A new report from the Fed Up coalition, an activist group calling for more inclusive economic policies, says the key regional Fed banks’ conflicts lead to subpar regulation of Wall Street.
  • As William Dudley, the New York Fed’s current president and a former Goldman Sachs partner retires, Fed Up calls on the bank to “select a new president who will put the interests of the public before Wall Street.”

The Federal Reserve is supposed to be a public institution, yet every single president of the New York Fed worked for Wall Street before or after his tenure at the regional central bank.

That’s just one of many apparent conflicts of interest that critics and community groups say have biased the New York Fed, which is especially influential in the Federal Reserve system, in favor of the very banks it is intended to supervise.

  • Nobel-prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz says bitcoin serves no useful function — other than circumventing legality. 
  • Stiglitz, who has called on bitcoin to be outlawed, told Blooomberg Television from Davos: “We have a good medium of exchange called the dollar.”
  • He argues that regulating bitcoin would mean driving it out of existance — and he thinks that would be a good thing.  

It’s not a secret that Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel-winning economist and Columbia professor, is not a special fan of bitcoin.

He has called for the so-called “cryptocurrency” to be outlawed, arguing that it is used primarily for illicit purposes such as money laundering and tax evasion.

Pressed about it during a Bloomberg Television interview from Davos, Stiglitz explained his rationale in simple terms. Essentially, he says, bitcoin is attempting to solve a problem that never existed in the first place.

“We have a good medium of exchange called the dollar,” he told Bloomberg Surveillance’s Tom Keene Tuesday morning from the snow-capped Swiss peaks. “We can trade in that. Why do people want bitcoin? For secrecy.”

REUTERS/Joshua RobertsThomson ReutersThe banking system can and is already moving toward greater use of digital payments, Stiglitz added, “but you don’t need bitcoin for that.”

“My feeling is that when you regulate it so that you couldn’t engage in money laundering and all these other things, there would be no demand for bitcoin,” he said. “So by regulating the abuses you are going to regulate it out of existence.”

The price of bitcoin crashed recently after a jaw-dropping run-up that drove it to a peak of nearly $ 20,000. The decline has been driven in part by fear of increased regulation in major Asian economies like South Korea and China.

GLOW gets better and better as its first season progresses, as it begins to show the deeper, character-driven components of its relationship to wrestling and gender. In the beginning, like many an audience member, the characters on the Netflix series — who’ve all somewhat randomly fallen into the strange performative world of televised wrestling — don’t take that world particularly seriously. But as wrestling becomes a vessel for them to fuck with perception, body type, and racial stereotype, and ultimately a way for them to transcend society’s myopic idea of what women’s bodies can and should do, they start embracing the sport far less ironically. The series also, in an unhurried way, begins developing its characters, both through their relationships to their bodies and through bits of backstory that permeate their practicing, bonding, and ring-persona-building routines. Alison Brie and the series’ creators spoke with the Hollywood Reporter about a particular episode late in the season in which Brie’s character, Ruth, has an abortion — and how it ties into the series’ themes of bodily ownership.

Brie told the publication:

What I especially love about that episode is that it’s a very easy choice for Ruth to make, whether or not the emotional repercussions will continue throughout her life. They might or they might not. This is a show about women’s bodies and about them taking control of their own bodies, and that’s highlighted beautifully in that episode.

What’s remarkable about this episode is not just that it displays something that’s the seed of a current, frightening, legislation-backed debate threatening women’s reproductive rights — but also that it does so artfully. In no way does it feel like an over-dramatic declaration (“and here’s where we’ll be Relevant”), and, incidentally, its all the more relevant for the way it occurs organically within the texture of the show. Series co-creator Carly Mensch said to THR:

We did have a lot of heated discussion in the writers room about whether we wanted to show the abortion. If we were telling honest stories about things that women go through, whether it be in the ‘80s or now, a bunch of us felt that was a very relatable and normal story for certain types of women and that we shouldn’t shy away from showing that if it’s an actual, real experience.

Of course, the realism and anti-dramatism of the scene — the thing that makes it so artful — has upset publications on the Right. Leave it to The Federalist to declare, “‘If a show like ‘GLOW,’ which has been lauded for passing the Bechtel [sic] test and other arbitrary metrics of feminism, fails to show what an abortion is really like, including the pain, recovery, and bleeding, and gets zero flack for it, that’s telling. It indicates yet again that the abortion agenda isn’t about providing women informed ‘choices,’ it’s about lying to women to make killing a pre-born child seem like no big deal…” And leave it to The Daily Wire to respond to the scene with, “all in all, Netflix’s GLOW represents another bright, shining example of what happens when nefarious leftists kill a fun concept by injecting their anti-social worldview into the mix. The equivalent of enjoying a bowl of fruit punch while rocking out to Billy Idol only to have the DJ switch the track over to Barbara Streisand and pour arsenic in your cup. Feminists really do ruin everything.” Yes, on behalf of all nefarious leftists, a sincere apology for ruining your metaphoric Billy Idol party.

Of course, as you can see, publications on the left/liberal-leaning center will laud this inclusion in the series, and on the other end, it’ll be seen the insidious propagation of that baby-killing feminist agenda. At this point in our bifurcated reality, it’s not like this episode of television was #important because it’d change the minds people on the conservative end of a wildly divided public — but for those willing to appreciate the nuances of it without judgment, it’s a scene that fits smartly into the fabric of a show that examines the ways society attempts to own, and broadcast a morality, and various classifications onto, women’s bodies.

Let’s block ads! (Why?)

Meet “VR Sense.” This is a Koei Tecmo’s dedicated VR arcade cabinet. It won’t only have VR headsets, but is equipped to respond to all five senses, including smell and touch.

According to Game Watch Impress and Famitsu, three games were announced for the cabinet at its debut earlier today. There is Dynasty Warriors, GI Jockey Sense, and Horror Sense.

VR Sense’s base hardware is the PlayStation 4, and it also uses both the PlayStation Move and PlayStation VR.

So, can’t you just experience this at home? From the sound of it, no.

The cabinet’s chair, for example, can rotate right and left as well as up and down. What else? There’s a “wind function,” that gives the sensation of running through a field or racing a horse, a “hot and cold function” that can change the temperature in the cabinet, and a “mist function” to simulate rain.

To appeal to the sense of smell, the cabinet has a varied “scent function” able to replicate everything from a fresh forest to a smoky battlefield. As currently described, the “touch function” isn’t what you’d think, considering these are the folks behind Dead or Alive Xtreme 3. Rather, it will reproduce the sensation of insects and rats clawing over your body, which sounds terrifying.

If Dead or Alive does appear on this cabinet, good thing it has a seatbelt!
