Our galaxy is set to collide with the Andromeda galaxy.

Our galaxy is set to collide with the Andromeda galaxy.

 

planets in space in the future

Our galactic home, the Milky Way, is on an inevitable collision course with our nearest neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy.

Stars, including our Sun, will smash into one another and orbits will fly out of whack. The chaos will go on for some time, but eventually, everything will settle down and the two galaxies will merge into one huge elliptical galaxy.

Don't lose any sleep over this eventuality, though—it won't happen for another 3.75 billion years.

Funds vanish at bankrupt crypto exchange FTX; probe underway

NEW YORK (AP) — Collapsed cryptocurrency trading firm FTX confirmed there was “unauthorized access” to its accounts, hours after the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Friday.

The embattled company’s new CEO John Ray III said Saturday that FTX is switching off the ability to trade or withdraw funds and taking steps to secure customers’ assets, according to a tweet by FTX’s general counsel Ryne Miller. FTX is also coordinating with law enforcement and regulators, the company said.

Exactly how much money is involved is unclear, but analytics firm Elliptic estimated Saturday that $477 million was missing from the exchange. Another $186 million was moved out of FTX’s accounts, but that may have been FTX moving assets to storage, said Elliptic’s co-founder and chief scientist Tom Robinson.

A debate formed on social media about whether the exchange was hacked or a company insider had stolen funds, a possibility that cryptocurrency analysts couldn’t rule out.

Until recently, FTX was one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges. It was already short billions of dollars when it sought bankruptcy protection Friday and its former CEO and founder, Sam Bankman-Fried, resigned.

The company had valued its assets between $10 billion to $50 billion, and listed more than 130 affiliated companies around the world, according to its bankruptcy filing.

The unraveling of the once-giant exchange is sending shockwaves through the industry, with companies that backed FTX writing down investments and the prices of bitcoin and other digital currencies falling. Politicians and regulators are calling for stricter oversight of the unwieldy industry. Experts say the saga is still unfolding.

“We’ll have to wait and see what the fallout is, but I think we are going to see more dominoes falling and an awful lot of people stand to lose their money and their savings,” said Frances Coppola, an independent financial and economic commentator. “And that is just tragic, really.”

The timing and the extent of access that the assumed hacker appeared to achieve, siphoning money from multiple parts of the company, led Coppola and other analysts to theorize that it could have been an inside job.

FTX said Saturday that it’s moving as many digital assets as can be identified to a new “cold wallet custodian,” which is essentially a way of storing assets offline without allowing remote control.

“It does look as if the liquidators didn’t act fast enough to stop some kind of siphoning off of funds from FTX after it filed for bankruptcy, and that’s bad, but it just shows how complex this thing is,” Coppola said.

Initially, some people were hoping that perhaps all the missing funds were liquidators or bankruptcy administrators trying to move assets to a more secure spot. But it would be unusual for that to happen on a Friday night, said Molly White, cryptocurrency researcher and fellow with the Library Innovation Lab at Harvard University.

“It looked very different from what a liquidator might do if they were trying to secure the funds,” she said.

White also said there are signs of possible insider involvement. “It seems unlikely that someone who is not an insider could have pulled off such a massive hack with so much access to FTX systems.”

The collapse of FTX highlights the need for cryptocurrency to be regulated more like traditional finance, Coppola said.

“Cyrpto isn’t in the very early stages anymore,” she said. “We’ve got ordinary people putting their life savings into it.”

A WOLF IN SHEEP's CLOTHING - GENISIS;Docu Drama

Highly Worth While  for understanding real  root causes for WOLF'S  penetration into our moral mainstream American society and Judeo/Christan Civilazation

SAUL ALINSKY; CHICAGO
A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING - DVD Since the 1960s, Saul Alinsky's words and famous work, "Rules for Radicals" have influenced political tactics and theories, especially on issues concerning social justice. Behind his thesis, however, lurks a deadly agenda that threatens the very core beliefs of Christianity and the Church. Discover how Alinsky successfully pulled the wool over society's eyes, as the experts in this docu-drama unravel the lies and deception he spun, and ultimately reveal him as "A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing".
-
A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING II - THE GENDER AGENDA DVD Today’s society seems more confused than ever about gender and sexuality. Marriage and family are under attack, undermining centuries of Christian civilization and respect for God’s law. This powerful documentary sheds light on the philosophical and historical causes, and identifies how socialist and communist ideologues rebranded themselves as liberals and progressives to push a leftist agenda. These “wolves in sheep’s clothing” would reorder our traditional Biblical understanding of nature, marriage and family, unless we expose them for what they are......
"Be ware of the false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing but underneath are re venous wolves,
By their fruit you'll know them."

"Let me :let me in, I will kill you all" breaking in home, was shot in the leg by a residen

On the other side of the door was a strange, shirtless man who had come up the stairs armed with a knife.

When the man told the intruder on the other side of the bedroom door that he had a gun, the intruder yelled, “Pistola!” which is the Spanish word for pistol. Meanwhile, the intruder was trying to force the bedroom door open, according to the arrest report.

Armed with the handgun, the man who lives in the house fired a “warning shot into the ceiling and then fired a shot through his bedroom door at the subject attempting to strike the unknown individual’s leg,” the arrest report stated.

At one point during the break-in, police said, Valle was banging on doors in the house and yelling, “Come out, come out, you are running out of time. There are bombs all over the house.”

An arriving officer heard a gunshot, ran to the front of the house, kicked in the front door, and announced himself as a Metro officer. He climbed the stairs while hearing yelling and screaming, the arrest report said.

Once he reached the top of the stairs, the officer saw the man later identified as Valle bleeding from his left leg.

Video recorded by Horvat shows two police officers guiding a handcuffed Valle, who was bleeding from his knee, down to the grass.

“It’s just that we have a great community and it was just surprising that it happened there,” Horvat said. “I don’t feel, like, less safe. I think people need to realize that crime is everywhere now.”

Valle was taken to University Medical Center with a shattered tibia.

He was booked on a charge of burglary with a deadly weapon and three counts of assault with a deadly weapon, according to the arrest report, but Las Vegas Justice Court records show that prosecutors declined to pursue the assault
