October job creation comes in at 128,000, easily topping estimates even with GM auto strike – exceeding the estimate of 75,000 from economists surveyed by Dow Jones….
November 1, 2019
Nonfarm payrolls rose by 128,000 in October as the U.S. economy overcame the weight of the GM autoworkers' strike and created jobs at a pace well above expectations. Even with a decline of 42,000 in the motor vehicles and parts industry, the pace of new jobs well exceeded the estimate of 75,000 from economists surveyed by Dow Jones. The loss of jobs came due to the General Motors strike that has since been settled. That 42,000 job loss itself was less than the 50,000 or more that many economists had been anticipating.

November 1, 2019
Researchers at the University of Washington are presenting what they call “BrainNet,” which they say is “the first multi-person non-invasive direct brain-to-brain interface for collaborative problem solving.”
For the study, three participants were connected to EEGs, which recorded their brain activity. Two of the participants were labeled as “senders” and one was labeled a “receiver.”
The participants played a game that’s similar to Tetris, and the senders could see the whole game, but the receiver couldn’t, and had to play based on what the senders were communicating. The EEGs would read the brain activity of the senders and send it to the receiver using TMS through the internet...

However, the announcement was not reviewed or approved by the school's command chaplain nor did it represent the U.S. Naval Academy's Command Religious Program, according to Garas.
