  1. The Justice Department released a less-redacted version of special counsel Robert Mueller's 2019 report on Monday, lifting redactions on a handful of pages about the intersection of Roger Stone, WikiLeaks and the Russian hack of the Democrats. The latest version of the report showed Mueller looked at whether Stone, a longtime political confidant of President Donald Trump, along with WikiLeaks and WikiLeaks' founder Julian Assange, should have faced criminal conspiracy charges related to the Russian government's hack of the Democrats in the 2016 presidential campaign. Mueller ultimately decided there was not enough proof beyond a reasonable doubt. The latest version of the report was released because the transparency group Electronic Privacy Information Center and BuzzFeed News sued for it. The new version also revealed details about how Russians specifically sought to harm Hillary Clinton and support Trump in 2016. Several Russians affiliated with the military intelligence unit the GRU were charged with the hack of the Democrats and the leak of the stolen emails, which shaped politics in the 2016 presidential race and gave Trump's campaign fodder to attack Clinton. Separately, other Russians have been indicted for operating a sprawling social media propaganda campaign intended to destabilize American politics. Mueller reasoned that Stone and Assange could have been liable for the hacking conspiracy because they had helped to disseminate and maximize the impact of the stolen documents. But ultimately, Mueller wrote, the Justice Department "did not have admissible evidence," such as proof of an agreement and knowledge that the hack was ongoing, to secure conspiracy convictions. The Mueller report's revelations on Monday add a new layer of nuance to the understanding of what the former FBI director found about the Trump campaign's receptiveness and the Russian hack and dump of stolen Democratic emails, noting that Stone could have been a more active player than was previously believed. In his discussion of a potential case against Stone, Mueller acknowledged "the existence of some evidence that Stone played a role in coordinating the October 7 release" of hacked emails of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. Mueller's team couldn't find evidence beyond a reasonable doubt "at the present time" that Stone or other campaign advisers coordinated with WikiLeaks, the report said. "While the Office cannot exclude the possibility of coordination between Stone and WikiLeaks or that additional evidence could come to light on that issue, the investigation did not obtain admissible evidence likely to meet the government's burden to prove facts establishing such coordination beyond a reasonable doubt, "The newly released portion of the Mueller report said. Stone was convicted of lying to Congress, obstruction and witness intimidation about his efforts to reach WikiLeaks in 2016, though he avoided prison after receiving clemency from Trump. Assange faces charges in the US for a hacking conspiracy, though the case is unrelated to the 2016 election. Assange has not yet appeared in US court and his attorneys have criticized the indictment and fought his extradition from Great Britain to the US. Mueller explained how his team faced additional hurdles in potential cases against WikiLeaks or Trump campaign affiliates. "The Office also considered whether WikiLeaks and anyone connected to the Trump Campaign had liability in connection with WikiLeaks' months-long releases of stolen emails and other documents, possibly with the aim of influencing the 2016 presidential election," Mueller wrote. But his team "concluded that substantial questions exist about whether the release of emails could be treated as an 'expenditure,' whether the government could establish willfulness, and whether prosecution of this conduct would be subject to a First Amendment defense. In combination, those factors created sufficient doubt that the Office could obtain and sustain a conviction "about WikiLeaks. "It is hardly surprising that Mr. Mueller decided not to indict Julian Assange. No one should be charged in the United States for publishing truthful information," Barry Pollack, Assange's defense attorney in the US, said in response to the Mueller report release on Monday. And Grant Smith, a defense attorney for Stone, said the newly released version of the report vindicated Stone because he "in no way" knew in advance the timing or content of the emails the Russians stole and released. "No matter how hard the Mueller team tried, they could not make the case they tried to pin on Mr. Stone from the start. These newly unredacted sections are full of euphemisms for the ultimate conclusion that evidence simply did not exist of Stone's involvement, "Smith said. Russians paid woman to attend Trump rallies Another part of the report released on Monday described just how clearly Russians working on a sprawling social media troll farm operation supported Trump to win the presidency - with one document directing the Russian propagandists to "use any opportunity to criticize Hillary [Clinton] and the rest (except Sanders and Trump - we support them), "Mueller quoted. The newly released descriptions of the troll farm, called the Internet Research Agency, also described how the Russians sought to create social media accounts that targeted politicians and public figures in the US to generate more reaction online. The new release also showed extensive evidence Mueller documented of how the Internet Research Agency had sought to smear Clinton. Among other tactics, the group "paid one Florida woman over $ 1,000" to attend two Trump rallies wearing a Clinton costume and prison jumpsuit, a portion of the report that was previously redacted said. Trump and Attorney General William Barr have for months attempted to cast doubt on Mueller's findings that the Russians supported Trump and wanted to hurt Clinton's campaign. Instead, they've tried to recast the Russian social media operation in 2016 as an equal-offender chaos agent, and claimed Trump and his campaign associates were completely exonerated, though Mueller said he could not exonerate the President. This story has been updated to reflect that BuzzFeed News also joined the lawsuit to push for the release of this version of the report.

  3. President Donald Trump is casting doubt on the integrity of vote counting and warning he will deploy squads of lawyers when polls close on Tuesday, as his latest attempts to tarnish the democratic process deepen a sense of national nervousness hours before Election Day. The President's maneuvering, as he fights to the last moment to secure a second term, is taking place ahead of a court hearing in Texas Monday morning on a Republican request to throw out 127,000 drive-thru votes in a key county. The case is one of a growing number of GOP legal gambits to jam up vote counting or reject ballots and comes amid new concerns that the Postal Service, after reforms initiated by its new pro-Trump CEO, may struggle to deliver a deluge of mail- in ballots before counting deadlines. Fears are also growing that the President might try to declare victory before all the votes are counted as he and Democratic nominee Joe Biden launch a final-day swing through the battleground states that will decide one of the most crucial elections in modern US history. Their sprint is taking place as the coronavirus pandemic - that Trump has denied and downplayed - begins to rage out of control across most of the country. The situation further complicates life for millions expected to head to polling places on Tuesday to join the record 95 million citizens who have already cast an early vote. Biden is leading in national polls and by a narrower margin in many key states and has multiple paths to victory. Trump's route to the required 270 votes is thinner but still viable, meaning either candidate could win. Trump's campaign is counting on a surge in Election Day turnout from his supporters to fuel the President's path to reelection. In an extraordinary departure from American political tradition, Trump has been arguing for months that the election is "rigged" against him, has made false claims that mail-in voting is corrupt and has refused to guarantee a peaceful transfer of power. On Sunday, the President stoked fears of a disputed election that could have corrosive long-term effects by raising the false argument that results not declared on an election night were somehow illegitimate. Many US elections have gone past midnight on Election Day. It is common for some states to take several days to finalize vote counts. "I think it's a terrible thing when ballots can be collected after an election," Trump said in the crucial state of North Carolina, which he is battling to keep in his column despite demographic changes that give Democrats hope. "I think it's a terrible thing when people or states are allowed to tabulate ballots for a long period of time after the election is over because it can only lead to one thing, and that's very bad. You know what that thing is. I think it's a very dangerous, terrible thing, "Trump told reporters. In another ominous comment, the President said that as soon as voting was over in states like Pennsylvania, "We're going in with our lawyers," after railing against a Supreme Court decision that left in place for now a decision by Pennsylvania's top bench to allow the counting of ballots up to three days after Election Day. Elections are, however, not decided by time limits - they depend on all the votes being counted. Some states and counties do not start counting mail-in votes until Tuesday, and in many cases the process is more complicated than counting in person ballots, meaning that the post-election period will be protracted. Some of the most crucial battlegrounds, like Pennsylvania and Michigan, have warned it could be several days before a final result can be declared. In the latest high stakes legal imbroglio, a federal court in Texas will hear a suit filed by a group of Republicans to invalidate nearly 127,000 ballots at drive-thru facilities in Harris County, a heavily Democratic area that surrounds Houston. The Texas Supreme Court denied a similar petition on Sunday. The showdown is taking place against a backdrop of a dramatic Democratic push to capture Texas, a long-term Republican bastion, without which the President almost certainly couldn't win a second term. Also in Texas, the FBI has opened an investigation into a caravan of vehicles driven by Trump supporters allegedly harassing a Biden-Harris campaign bus on Friday. In a separate vote counting case in Nevada, a judge is set to rule Monday on a GOP lawsuit seeking to halt early counting in Clark County, which includes Las Vegas, over the stringency of signature-matching computer software and how closely observers can watch votes being counted. Concern over premature victory declaration As the election nears, concern is growing about what could be a chaotic and confusing election night - given the unusually high proportion of early and mail-in votes owing to the pandemic. Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said on "State of the Union" that she was concerned that Trump could try to declare victory in her state if Election Day voting tallies showed him with a lead before early and mail-in votes were counted. "I think that's a very real possibility and that's why we are trying to make sure that everyone in the press understands the volume of votes that are coming in is like nothing we've ever seen before and it is going to take time to count, "she said. "And it's more important that we get a count that is accurate than a count that is fast and might not be accurate." A Trump campaign advisor told CNN's Jim Acosta on Sunday that his team will not hold back on claiming a win if it looks like the President is heading for victory, looking at the "current count" and "remaining count" of ballots on election night. Just because a candidate declares victory it does not mean the election is over, but such a move could be used to create a false political reality to build momentum behind subsequent legal challenges. The President has already said he expects the election to end up in the Supreme Court, and rushed to get Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett confirmed before the election to bolster the conservative majority on the top bench. The virus that dominated the election is tightening its grip Tuesday's moment of destiny will unfold as the novel coronavirus emergency surges out of control all over the nation, in the wake of record daily infection rates and with the number of deaths climbing toward 1,000 per day. The President on Sunday night hinted that he could seek to dismiss Dr. Anthony Fauci after the election after rejecting the admired infectious diseases specialist's science-based recommendations on the pandemic. Biden will campaign Monday in Ohio - a late addition to his target list - and Pennsylvania, the state of his birth that could be the tipping point if the election is close. Trump will mount a hectic trip aboard Air Force One through North Carolina, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania in a last-ditch effort to save states he won four years ago and block Biden's route to the White House. Biden argues that Trump's denial and neglect of a pandemic that has killed more than 230,000 Americans and is getting worse by the day should deny the President reelection.

  13. The horoscope signs are divided into four great elements: Air (in which we find Gemini, Libra and Aquarius); Fire (to which Aries, Leo and Sagittarius belong); Earth (made up of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn); and Water (which are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces). These elements have a direct relationship with nature, just as it is said that the signs also have it. As a curiosity, there are common characteristics that are repeated in the signs that belong to the same elements. There is a "new" element of the zodiac. We call it Ophiuchus and it alters the new horoscope dates so that those born between November 29 and December 17 will belong to this sign. The word "zodiac" has its origin in the Greek word "Skopo" and the Egyptian word "Horo", which translates as "looking at the horizon". Each of the zodiacal signs has an origin or inspiration in a mythological animal that is related to a Greek god. For example, Aries is a ram and constitutes the symbol of offering to the Greek god of war or Capricorn is represented by a goat, specifically Amalthea who, they say, suckled the god Zeus. The signs of the zodiac are each named after the constellations with which they coincided about 2000 years ago. Why do they influence our life? Each sign is said to coincide with the solstices and equinoxes, which divide the zodiacal circle into four equal parts. They coincide, therefore, with the seasons and a correlation is established between the situation of the sun in each of the times and human events and actions. That the horoscope has survived to this day, we owe it to the Assyrians, who transmitted it to the Egyptians and thanks to them it reached all of Western Europe. There is no use just knowing your zodiac sign. You must also know what your ascendant is, the point of the zodiac that appears on the horizon to the East at the time and place of your birth, which is what really determines our personality, values and conditions our way of being. There are other known horoscopes such as the Chinese (with 12 animals such as the rat, the rabbit or the horse), the Hindu (whose signs are divided into segments, as if it were an organization chart and are called Rashis) or the Celts, with a total of 23 signs.

  15. The United States was never expected to last this long as the world's leader. For more than seven decades, America has buttressed the "rules-based order," acting as the world's police and its moral champion, whether its allies and enemies liked it or not. That's no longer the case. In the past four years, Donald Trump's "America First" presidency has challenged the post-war spirit of cooperation more aggressively than any leader before him. One by one, he has defunded and abandoned the multilateral agreements and institutions created by his predecessors. His courtship of strongman leaders has allowed autocrats to exploit this extraordinary moment in time to further their own interests and roll back democratic freedoms in their countries. But the global instruments Trump deserted haven't crumbled, nor is the world crashing and burning with its long-time leader in the back seat. Strongman leaders may be emboldened, but they aren't going entirely unchallenged. And old US allies have not fallen straight into the arms of China, as many analysts fear. Instead, the world is adapting these agreements, it's reshaping its institutions and, as for China, most countries are finding ways to balance their relations with Beijing as both a friend and foe. This shift has been a long time coming. While US grand strategists who believe American world leadership is exceptional argue it could go on in its role indefinitely, most international relations experts agree that all unipolar models must come to an eventual end, as other powers rise and challenge its primacy. After assuming the role of leader following World War II, the US proved its dominance with its victory in the Cold War, a consolidation of power that experts described as a "unipolar moment." That moment has lasted 30 years. There have been clear signs over the past two decades, however, that Americans are tiring of taking on this role, while much of the world, equally, is cooling on the US as its hegemon, and is eager to step into its shoes. Germany, for example, is pitching itself as a global health leader. Even before the pandemic, German Chancellor Angela Merkel had put global health on the agenda at G20 meetings for the first time as the Trump administration showed signs of retreat from international cooperation. Germany has boosted funding for health research and development, and was even able to treat patients from neighboring countries for Covid-19 early in the European outbreak, so well-resourced were its hospitals at a time of crisis. As the US attempted to lead reforms of the World Health Organization - despite its decision to abandon it - Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron proposed their own an alternative plan, after rejecting Washington's, as Reuters reported. Germany has pledged an extra 200 million euros ($ 234.1 million) to the WHO this year, making for a total of 500 million euros, to help plug the gap left by the US, traditionally the organization's biggest donor. It's not the only one. The UK announced last month it would boost its WHO funding by 30% over the next four years, which would make it the biggest donor, should the US follow through with its withdrawal. China, under international pressure to resource the global response, has also pledged additional funding, as has France, Finland and Ireland, among others. It's unclear whether they will be able to make up for the US 'shortfall in the years to come, but it's at least a good start. Merkel - often described as the world's "anti-Trump" - said in May she wanted the European Union to take on more global responsibility for the pandemic and for the bloc to harness a more powerful voice overall on the values of "democracy, freedom and the protection of human dignity, "describing cooperation with the US as" more difficult that we'd like. " Making comments in a speech ahead of Germany assuming the six-month presidency of the European Union, Merkel said she saw her country's presidency as an opportunity to be an "anchor of stability" in the world that could shape change and assume responsibility for global peace and security. "Itself a project between individual states, the European Union is inherently a supporter of rules-based multilateral cooperation. This is truer than ever in the crisis," Merkel said. Macron too tried to pitch himself as the next leader of the free world in the earlier days of Trump's presidency. His campaign lost steam, but he still often plays the democratic defender in the room where the US is missing, having confronted Russia's Vladimir Putin on his country's role in the Syrian conflict and on the deterioration of gay rights in Russia, and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on the murder of his critic, Jamal Khashoggi, at a Saudi consulate in Turkey. While EU leaders' will to replace American leadership is strong, the lack of progress in the areas Macron has tried to address are a sobering reminder of the limited power the world has to uphold democratic values without the United States at the helm. Putin had his wrist slapped, but the abuse of gay Russians continues, and Russia and its firepower has all but won the war for Syrian President Bashir al-Assad. Bin Salman has been forced to keep a lower profile, but Macron's confrontation has done little to threaten his position of power. The European Union is also losing its battle with the rise of autocracy in some of its eastern states, like Hungary and Poland, or countering Russian influence in that part of their bloc. But they continue to try and their own alliances are strengthening. Take the E3. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson should be Merkel's and Macron's worst enemy, as tense Brexit trade talks crash out ahead of the UK's December 31 withdrawal from the EU. Remarkably, the three are still chummy on topics other than Brexit. The E3's whole raison d'etre has been to counter US foreign policy, coming together informally during the Iraq war and to engage Iran on nuclear proliferation where the US wouldn't. But it has become tighter knit in the Trump era - the trio have openly opposed US sanctions on Iran and increasingly cooperate in areas like Beijing's territorial expansionism in the South China Sea and the Syrian conflict as the US shows less interest in those security challenges. Members of the trans-Atlantic defense alliance, NATO, have also had to adapt to a less present US. The alliance has had plans to boost funding since Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014, an audacious move that the Obama administration did little about. Trump's aggressive criticism of member nations contributing below their commitments of 2% of GDP applied further pressure on several members to pay their share.

  18. 1. The origin of "Matrix" The term "Matrix" (matrix in Spanish) is attributed to the author William Gibson, who even declared that the Wachowski sisters "stole" the expression from his novel Neuromancer, a science fiction classic. It seems that the thing was anecdotal, since Gibson has always claimed to be a loyal follower of the franchise. 2. Will Smith was going to be Neo Recently, Will Smith revealed on his YouTube account that he was about to become Neo but did not understand the script and when he met with the directors, they did not understand each other. With which, he turned down the role to star in Wild Wild West. Smith also confessed that the role of Morpheus was intended for Val Kilmer. 3. Johnny Depp, the favorite of the directors The composer of the Matrix soundtrack, Don Davis, stated that Johnny Depp was the Wachowski sisters' first choice for the role of Neo. On the other hand, Warner Bros wanted Brad Pitt or Leonardo DiCaprio. Names such as Ewan McGregor and David Duchovny were also considered among the candidates. 4. Samuel L. Jackson, the other Morpheus In addition to Val Kilmer, Samuel L. Jackson was another candidate to play Morpheus. Before Laurence Fishburne took the role, actors like Russell Crowe and Gary Oldman also auditioned for the film. 5. Sandra Bullock, from Neo to Trinity Sandra Bullock's case is interesting. Because the producers could not find the ideal actor for Neo, they thought to turn him into a woman and had a name in mind, that of the Gravity actress. Unfortunately, Bullock did not want to, nor did he agree to be Trinity, since, later, that role was proposed to him. A decision of which he regretted, despite the fact that it would have meant the reunion of the protagonists of Speed. 6. Agent Smith would have French nationality Before Hugo Weaving became Agent Smith, French actor Jean Reno was considered for the role of the iconic villain. 7. Keanu Reeves' Pain Shortly before filming, Keanu Reeves underwent surgery for a two-level fusion in his cervical spine and was in the process of recovery throughout the production. This would explain the stiff upper body movements in the movie, especially when turning the head. 8. The "Matrix" code The Matrix code was designed by Simon Whiteley, who did not appear in the film's credits, is personalized and includes Japanese characters as well as Western letters and numbers. The bright green font color is a tribute to the monochrome monitors of old computers. 9. Tribute to "Ghost in the Shell" Although the green colors of the Matrix code were a tribute to the old monochrome computers, it was also a tribute to the animated film Ghost in the Shell (1995), which was a clear inspiration for the Wachowskis in creating the universe of tape. 10. Risk scenes Keanu Reeves actually came out and tried to climb into the office scene, when he's on the phone with Morpheus. 11. Greek mythology The Wachowskis used Greek mythology to build their story. In fact, Morpheus is named after the god of dreams. 12. A very restless protagonist During the first two parts of the film, Neo asks more than 40 questions, half of his lines of dialogue are question mark. Not for less, going from a virtual reality (which he believed was the real one) to a very different one, makes him have many doubts to solve. 13. A nod to Bruce Lee Before fighting Morpheus in his training sessions, Neo scratches his nose. This is a tribute to Bruce Lee, since it was his hallmark, he did it right before every fight. 14. About the glasses Virtually all the characters have sunglasses. However, there is a slight difference in each. The good guys, Neo, Trinity or Morpheus, have round sunglasses, while the villains, like Agent Smith, have square ones. 15. The simulation Neo's book in the film is an essay by French philosopher and sociologist Jean Baudrillard called Culture and Simulation, in which he talks about postmodern concepts about simulation and hyper-reality. The Wachowski sisters forced the entire cast to read the rehearsal. In fact, one of the phrases of the book appears in the film: Welcome to the desert of the real. 16. Reusing decor The rooftops, buildings and other exterior ensembles were repurposed from the filming of the film Dark City, directed by Alex Proyas. In fact, the scene in which Trinity escapes from the agents was filmed on the same set. 17. Agent Smith, 1950s For his portrayal of Agent Smith, Hugo Weaving stated that he was inspired by the hosts of news programs that aired in the 1950s. Laurence Fishburne compared him to journalist Walker Cronkite. 18. Shot in Chicago The Matrix is not set in any real place, but the exterior scenes, many of them were shot in Chicago, the hometown of the Wachowski sisters. 19. The Oracle Cookies In computer language, a "cookie" is data. Whereupon, when the Oracle offers Neo a cookie, he is giving him information. 20. Anagram Neo's name is the anagram of the word "One". This highlights his position as Chosen in the film.
