what's been the reaction so far the reaction is still filtering through in fact when we spoke to the i.c. trying to get this. they still couldn't really confirm it they weren't in a position to confirm it immediately it was russia there was saying look the ban has now been lifted i think a lot of people are going to be unhappy about this a lot of advocates a clean sport because they will say well for starters russia should have been allowed to compete at the winter olympics and they should've been a blanket ban and the speed at which this is happening russia has been brought back in from the cold far too quickly for that the russians are concerned i mean they've welcomed the decision today we've had an immediate reaction from them they felt hard done by from the from the very start i was about to hit the russian olympic committee is very pleased that they've put a few difficult months behind them. and there's an issue with that issue today's decision of the i.o.c. is one of the most important for us because the russian olympic committee is once again completely reinstated in its rights a

taking part in the games of tool but the i.c.'s decision in december kind of paved the way for russia reinstatement that we may have been seeing that flak and hearing their anthem at the closing ceremony the ice has been monitoring their behavior to see if they are abiding by the ban there were whispers that yes russia could be reinstated before the ceremony but crucially to fellow drug tests for russian athletes at these games and as we're going to hear from i see president thomas back that's why the ban has been up health. this was hugely disappointing. in addition to allude to the reasons related to the i.o.c. for you consider the fifteen this special well that lucy's. so the ban in place but just for now because we're hearing that if there's no more taking violations at these games then russia will be reinstated fought back really from the cold that would please a lot of people because they say that will send out the wrong message about typing but a lot hangs in the balance now but what we do know for sure is that there was so

so in my mind i think we'll see both i think you're going to see a new wave of i.c.'s come out of the us that are going to the lengths to be compliant i just think that you know it really needs to happen to a certain extent i'm all for kind of the government keeping their hands off things but in my mind you know just talking to different people there have been a lot of people taking advantage of. you know with that said i also think that we'll see across the globe you'll find you know these safe havens for i see you know we see that kind of thing with tax evasion and other things like that and i have to imagine with i.c.'s we'll see something similar ok so separate from the i c o's how about you know regulation in general in the digital space you said you know you don't prefer it but you know i sort of look at it in two ways one you've got to protect consumers i think or at least somebody does you may think that it or not government but we've seen so many times where we've had computer problems whether or not it was mt gox or the one coin check in japan just last week

the wallet pools being swept clean ones and see one's really really big program and undermines the i.c. said the integrity of the sports ok but they have now said that the ban is lifted. what's been the reaction so far the reaction is still filtering through in fact when we spoke to the i.c. trying to get this. they still couldn't really confirm it they weren't in a position to confirm it immediately it was russia there was saying the ban has now been lifted i think a lot of people are going to be unhappy about this a lot of advocates for clean sport because they will say well for starters russia should have been allowed to complete out the winter olympics they should've been a blanket ban and the speed at which this is happening russia has been brought back in from the cold far too quickly for that the russians are concerned i mean they've welcomed the decision today we've had an immediate reaction from them they felt hard done by from the from the very stuff and as far as what happens next terry the winter olympics the para winter olympics take place in march on the international par

so in my mind i think we'll see both i think you're going to see a new wave of i.c.'s come out of the us that are going to the lengths to be compliant i just think that it really needs to happen to a certain extent i'm all for kind of the government keeping their hands off things but in my mind you know just talking to different people there have been a lot of people taking advantage of. you know with that said i also think that we'll see across the globe you'll find you know these safe havens for. you know we see that kind of thing with tax evasion and other things like that and i have to imagine with i see we'll see something similar ok so separate from the i see those how about you know regulation in general in the digital space you said you know you don't prefer it but you know i sort of look at it in two ways one you've got to protect consumers i think or at least somebody does you may think that it or not government but we've seen so many times where we've had computer problems whether or not it was mt gox or the one coin check in japan just last week where you

so in my mind i think we'll see both i think you're going to see a new wave of i.c.'s come out of the us that are going to the lengths to be compliant i just think that it really needs to happen to a certain extent i'm all for kind of the government keeping their hands off things but in my mind you know just talking to different people there have been a lot of people taking advantage of. you know with that said i also think that we'll see across the globe you'll find you know the safe haven for i see so you know we see that kind of thing with tax evasion and other things like that and i have to imagine with i see we'll see something similar ok so separate from the i see those how about you know regulation in general in the digital space you said you know you don't prefer it but you know i sort of look at it in two ways one you've got to protect consumers i think or at least somebody does you may think that it or not government but we've seen so many times where we've had computer problems whether or not it was mt gox or the one coin check in japan just last week where

hundreds of probably more than a thousand i.c.'s and you know i think i liken it to i remember i don't even have this anymore but they used to have a form of a cosmetic. product where you put this tape on your skin and blackheads and you know the ease with which you can create a currency out of nothing as is pulled out the black kids that are a lot of dodgy characters and projects out there. alongside the internet just like you know there are many false prophets and then there was let's say a jesus for example you know enter of being worth something but you know let's go back to. the secular world yes toshi is a problem a lot of people are seeking profits but here you know again the internet paul krugman meston every time he tries to offer his opinion on twitter about bitcoin of course if you look at the tweet tweet responses as all pictures of fax machines because of course he said the internet would have no impact on the global economy as much only as the fax machine ever did so he just thought it was a communication not a networ

didn't see a week at the closing ceremony was the russian flag why was that that's because the just the i.c. voted today to uphold the ban russians and then paid no of course that stemmed from state sponsored doping that was uncovered at the sochi olympics in twenty fourteen a unanimous decision we can see that a show of hands at the i.o.c. meeting now that resulted in the kind of political compromise this one hundred sixty eight russian athletes were competing as neutrals at these games under the olympic track but there was always this carrot dangling for them at the end whether they would actually be able to have their own flag closing ceremony now whether the whispers were positive that the russian athletes were behaving themselves abiding by the ban and then of course we had to doping violations towards the end of the games by russian athletes so i think that's really why the i.o.c. changed tack but if we don't see any more violations it's probably unlikely now with the games pretty much over then the russian reinstatement will happen and that won't please people for who are for clean s

cryptocurrency is just the regulations are really great and what i want to touch that is the villain the i.c. or market the start ups such as developer they are doing a great job because that's what exactly they're trying to do they're trying to create a boot camps where they can teach students about the artificial intelligence so hence these jobs are richer eliminating due to the technology and this technology is one of the factor that we are seeing in the inflation and hence we have not seen the village increment but that of aging crimen is happening because of the tax incentives come. that triggered that market selloff right but that was just only an excuse because the fundamentals are still strong and i disagree with that guest by saying that i think ports in the us to have good but i have what i do concur is that yes ok the expectations are far ahead because market or the analysts are predicting numbers which are not realistic so we have a reality check that's what happened ten percent correction in the market is an excellent thing because i mean even if we get a twenty percent correcti

how is the i.c.nting for the possibility these new national -- of these new national security concerns? are we seeing indications now that our adversaries are working to harness emerging technologies like artificial technologies and are we looking to do that in our own processes and analysis of data and intelligence? >> if i could take that first shot at that one. if you look at d.i.a. thanks for all the support the committee provides to the defense intelligence agentz. you look at our coordination and foreign militaries and operational environment central to looking at doctrine and what they are developing. when you think about artificial intelligence our near peer competitors are pursuing this. commercial technology that is available. when you look at the volume and big data and what is available, the ability to digest and pull all that information in, artificial intelligence will be integral to that. an example of one of the projects we're working on at the open source level project maven. full mo

disqualification she's been receiving a lot of abuse online from korea and supports even death threats now and the i.c. is spoken out against this today as everyone should enter into the spirit of the olympics obviously not something we want to be saying yeah absolutely we don't look positive note the swiss team is that has been going. i did but not for the performances on the slopes on the slopes some of the athletes competing important look at this and think i actually got looks like fun so we might see it in future when for the big games but this is a five person is a swiss freestyle skier and he's been taking his free starting skills to the escalator now athletes actually have a lot of time to kill in between events they get bored and i guess this is a result that is probably were panicking watching him do this and then later on he was joined by a teammate units from sick after a bit of improvised bobsled now they course it cool runnings on their instagram post the line you don't see the swiss team carrying on well they are they are carrying on the videos of have half a million views between them

to outlaw it you see in china some of the things that they've done they've they've sort of outlawed i.c.'s but the great thing about all this stuff is you can't really stop it there is no place you can't go to big coin and and find the c.e.o. and put him in jail you can't go to the big point office and bring in your typical government swat teams and shut it down it doesn't really exist anywhere and this is the beauty and this is what it's going to be the battle and i don't i don't expect it and for many years and i expected to be very very bloody but not in terms of physical blood just in terms of a real struggle. for this for what's going on for what we have complete tyranny complete government control global government as they're talking about one world government one world central bank or will the people finally have the power back and have a currency that gives the power back to the people that will those two key technologies share that we've already seen the futility of trying to stop them one would be a bit torrent and then all the torrent sites despite the hollywood m.p.a. are i.

all right as you see chairman clayton there taking a more group i think aggressive and sterling has i.c.'s you know they should i've been in business for thirty years i started a wall street you know they all the i.c.l. survey looked like the offerings and offerings are regulated and so if there are going to see some action there anything i think we are to think we haven't they've gone after two that were really egregious. look if you look at any organized exchange over the years there's always been abuses at the lowest level right penny stocks were run by boiler rooms they called boiler rooms for a reason not because they were nice people so when i would write the tory body has to look into something new they have a choice where they're going to go they're going to go after what seems like a legitimate transaction like that a big coin earthier him or they want to go down to this level of pump and dump ponzi schemes in and i see oh that doesn't mean all i see those are bad doesn't mean all tokenization is bad look i'm a huge believer that everything in the world this building we're sitt

airports in the country there shouldn't have been problems as you might finally smaller ports perhaps with i.c.'s trips with problems upon takeoff and we do have some information coming in actually kevin from online trackers which actually tracked the plane on the radars before it. went of. one four eight aircraft it climbed as you pointed out just now one thousand eight hundred meters or so at a speed of six hundred kilometers per hour a normal speed for a plane of such caliber then started descending quite rapidly to about one thousand five hundred meters so quite a rapid drop three hundred meters that certainly would have been visible on the radar people on board then climbed back to that original height and then dive down so whatever was happening there perhaps indicative the pilots were trying to gain control of the plane we just don't know at this stage but that is what the flight radar data and of course is saying now the first investigators are getting done the first thing they look at is the path of wreckage and that indicates to them what happened to the plane did it if it's a big wr

therefore the i.c. cannot communicate on individual cases while the procedure is ongoing on the one hand it is extremely disappointing when perhaps it substances may have been used but on the other hand it shows the effectiveness of the answer to a few system at the games which protects the rights of the clean athletes and the us the political fallout continues from the indictment of appropriate russians a case of meddling in the two thousand and sixteen presidential election president donald trump fired off several tweets rejecting accusations his campaign colluded with moscow jordan as a support from washington. the u.s. president donald trump hasn't been seen in public since friday the day thirteen russian citizens and three companies were indicted for allegedly interfering in the two thousand and sixteen presidential campaign and for allegedly trying to throw the election trumps way on sunday the president took to twitter to blame everyone from hillary clinton to the media for the suggestion that hi

giving an update to our last dedicated risk mitigation presentation to the board, which was at the i.cmeeting june of 2016. first i'd like to highlight a few points. as bill said, this is an on going continuous research focus for us. today's presentations are a high-level overview of that research. we consider all view points as a large institutional invest or. we have access to proprietary research and meetings with premiere leaders from investment managers to j.p. morgan and goldman sachs to c.i.o.s, et cetera. we have over 200 managers in our portfolio with varying view points. their expertise spans all markets. asset clause, industry, sector, geography. for example, jeremy's firm g.m.o. which is one of the more bearish investment managers managing an emerging market death portfolio for us, as you know. and in addition to client meetings, we attend their annual conference and gain in sight on their perspective as well as their investors. over all, we continue to recommend diversification through as set allocation and manager selection and it's the strongest down side risk, mitigatio

i think people lose track of the fact that i.c. effort folks and custom border patrol are not enemies of our state. they're american law enforcement. they work for our country to keep us safe and to enforce the laws of our nation. the way they are spoken of on this floor and treated in conversations, i'm appalled at. they're american law enforcement enforcing american law. and if there's a problem with what they're enforcing, this body should vote on it and fix the law, not beat up on the people that are enforcing the law and doing what we have asked them to do as a congress. i hope in the days ahead we can actually get this passed. i hope we can actually move towards citizenship for 1.8 million people that the president has asked for and that i think is a reasonable thing to be able to do for those individuals that came into our country as children. but i also hope that we don't this time say we're going to do citizenship and not do border security. i hope we don't just throw some money and pretend we're doing t. i hope we as a bo
