It contrasted sharply with Trump’s apparent discontent amid myriad difficulties: legal troubles back home, conflict with Russia over seizing Ukrainian ships and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s threat to skip the signing of a Trump-touted North American trade deal. Anticipating today’s meeting with his Chinese counterpart, however, Trump expressed optimism for a breakthrough to end their nations’ tariff war.

Michael Cohen pleaded guilty Thursday to lying to Congress that an effort to erect a Moscow Trump Tower ended in January 2016 when it actually continued until June. The revelations from Cohen’s case, including a proposal to give Russian President Vladimir Putin a $50 million penthouse, reportedly hang like a cloud over the Trump administration as it waits for special counsel Robert Mueller’s next move.

The implants had been banned due to leaks and other safety issues, and new reporting by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists casts serious doubt on manufacturers’ safety assurances. In the U.S. alone, 8,242 suspected mishaps were attributed to implants in the first half of 2018, compared with 4,567 in all of 2017. And now European Union officials are under pressure to compel makers of such devices to disclose more safety data.

Universal basic assets would provide housing, education, health care and internet access to all in need. While some deride it as unearned handouts, like basic income, UBA is supported by liberals as a way to fight poverty and by libertarians as a safety net alternative. And advocates say the U.S. government could cover the cost out of the $729 billion it currently spends on tax incentives only wealthier Americans can take advantage of. Sources: [OZY](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/e307af02?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjI5IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvZmFzdC1mb3J3YXJkXC91bml2ZXJzYWwtYmFzaWMtYXNzZXRzLWEtc21hcnRlci1maXgtdGhhbi11bml2ZXJzYWwtYmFzaWMtaW5jb21lXC85MDAxOT91dG1fc291cmNlPXBkYiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj0xMjAxMjAxOCZ2YXJpYWJsZT1jMzViNTA5MDI4OWEwMzBkNWY3MTcyM2RiODlkZDIzMyJ9&jwtS=rr24mhOqvzrTD39t-YoQs499V1qbTfk0_HwFVydw8k4) [Facebook](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/bf436653?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjJhIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cuZmFjZWJvb2suY29tXC9zaGFyZXJcL3NoYXJlci5waHA_dT1odHRwczpcL1wvd3d3Lm96eS5jb21cL3ByZXNpZGVudGlhbC1kYWlseS1icmllZlwvcGRiLTkwOTczXC9saWZlLWhhY2tzLTkwOTg3P3V0bV9zb3VyY2U9cGRiJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPTEyMDEyMDE4JnZhcmlhYmxlPWMzNWI1MDkwMjg5YTAzMGQ1ZjcxNzIzZGI4OWRkMjMzIn0&jwtS=mTCHoDGyz1EuHKwk-MrUbpU3V6uNjnPckSXIrKFTuy8) [Twitter](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/bcc2c8fc?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjJiIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC90d2l0dGVyLmNvbVwvaW50ZW50XC90d2VldD91cmw9aHR0cHM6XC9cL3d3dy5venkuY29tXC9wcmVzaWRlbnRpYWwtZGFpbHktYnJpZWZcL3BkYi05MDk3M1wvbGlmZS1oYWNrcy05MDk4Nz91dG1fc291cmNlPXBkYiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj0xMjAxMjAxOCZ2YXJpYWJsZT1jMzViNTA5MDI4OWEwMzBkNWY3MTcyM2RiODlkZDIzMyJ9&jwtS=GuHij5mivc3GUtZsRLhNcE2a6Z-X_ITZoJJF4PhdBlE) [Can Product-Makers Afford to Ghost Amazon?](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/21a1b4a7?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjJjIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvcHJlc2lkZW50aWFsLWRhaWx5LWJyaWVmXC9wZGItOTA5NzM_dXRtX3NvdXJjZT1wZGImdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249MTIwMTIwMTgmdmFyaWFibGU9YzM1YjUwOTAyODlhMDMwZDVmNzE3MjNkYjg5ZGQyMzMjYXJ0aWNsZTkwOTg1In0&jwtS=4yT8x2o3BJFJ5MD_GGLDz3FfjOmv3URlQzZomnByFNA) The e-commerce site is flexing its muscles with large manufacturers, prohibiting them from setting their own Amazon prices if they sell elsewhere.

Gone is the plush, noise-dampening midcentury decor featured in Mad Men in favor of smooth surfaces, open ceilings, and kitchens and bars sharing the room. Decibels can reach unhealthy levels, but reigning design choices won’t have it otherwise, while the din juices lucrative alcohol sales.

While business, politics and media have opened up to women, professional sports remain a much tougher game. Up-and-coming female coaches, like Phoebe Schecter, who runs NFL drills with the Buffalo Bills, are blazing a very narrow trail. Schecter is one of just six women in a field of 2,600, but programs like the NFL Diversity Coaching Fellowship aim to make those numbers meaningful. If male bastions like the military can open up, some argue, there may be hope for pro sports.   Sources: [SB Nation](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/06bf1115?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjM4IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cuc2JuYXRpb24uY29tXC8yMDE4XC8xMVwvMjdcLzE4MDk2OTg5XC93b21lbi1jb2FjaGluZy1tZW4tcHJvZmVzc2lvbmFsLXNwb3J0cy1uZmwtZ2xhc3Mtc2lkZWxpbmUifQ&jwtS=WjpJSEvMf2S0sC08MmNoWDYzn-1Sz58EcPyAoQu-JfQ) [Facebook](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/cd480989?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjM5IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cuZmFjZWJvb2suY29tXC9zaGFyZXJcL3NoYXJlci5waHA_dT1odHRwczpcL1wvd3d3Lm96eS5jb21cL3ByZXNpZGVudGlhbC1kYWlseS1icmllZlwvcGRiLTkwOTczXC9nYW1lLW9uLTkwOTgyP3V0bV9zb3VyY2U9cGRiJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPTEyMDEyMDE4JnZhcmlhYmxlPWMzNWI1MDkwMjg5YTAzMGQ1ZjcxNzIzZGI4OWRkMjMzIn0&jwtS=8JYGDRsSxqkSsFmr6MjCTMaFIdH2U6WOTAOEl0LXd_E) [Twitter](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/51707b41?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjNhIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC90d2l0dGVyLmNvbVwvaW50ZW50XC90d2VldD91cmw9aHR0cHM6XC9cL3d3dy5venkuY29tXC9wcmVzaWRlbnRpYWwtZGFpbHktYnJpZWZcL3BkYi05MDk3M1wvZ2FtZS1vbi05MDk4Mj91dG1fc291cmNlPXBkYiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj0xMjAxMjAxOCZ2YXJpYWJsZT1jMzViNTA5MDI4OWEwMzBkNWY3MTcyM2RiODlkZDIzMyJ9&jwtS=dkF2uQ_iAro6oyZCjT9VFUMpipcQwdsipCtNU5oAFtQ) 5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/6e499bcb?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjNiIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvcmVmZXJhZnJpZW5kP3V0bV9zb3VyY2U9cGRiJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPTEyMDEyMDE4JnZhcmlhYmxlPWMzNWI1MDkwMjg5YTAzMGQ1ZjcxNzIzZGI4OWRkMjMzIn0&jwtS=VVNh9lc4xHFL2DwiZQHDUOifa1YpiskmrcFtNh36gAE [OZY] 50M PEOPLE AND GROWING OZY Media, 800 West El Camino Mountain View, California 94040 This email was sent to {EMAIL} [Manage Subscriptions]( | [Privacy Policy](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/3f89c163?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjNjIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvdC1uLWM_dXRtX3NvdXJjZT1wZGImdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249MTIwMTIwMTgmdmFyaWFibGU9YzM1YjUwOTAyODlhMDMwZDVmNzE3MjNkYjg5ZGQyMzMifQ&jwtS=Cfsq4buU8hclmne0TIST0M9QfayyXiEHUJu6jN1vasE) | [Read Online](5c0269670ec460773e0c5b5a:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/5d8ea795?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDM2NjYxNjAsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwMjY5NjgyZmM4NjBmYTZjMjJjMjNkIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvZW1haWxzXC92aWV3b25saW5lP21jaWQ9Mjc1OjVjMDI2OTY3MGVjNDYwNzczZTBjNWI1YTpvdCZjaWQ9NWEwYTIwMDM5YjEzOWJjYmRhMmU5YmQ2OjEifQ&jwtS=NMZN853-vabpelt85R5RwucZWf4oQAKnFD9ic_OR77Y)
