Police Investigating Racist Abuse Of 3 England Soccer Players After Crushing Defeat. Three players who missed penalties in England's shootout loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 final were targeted for abuse. By FRANK GRIFFITHS and PAN PYLAS, AP. All you're expected to do is receive packages at your home (which might be anything electronics, DVDs, who knows) and then reship those packages to someplace else (possibly overseas). You're told that you'll be paid a flat rate per package sent. The work will sound pretty easy and the pay fair, which is why so many people fall for it.

When you create a game that lets people trade items and you make some items both very rare and very valuable, you create the demand for a black market. Blizzard has decided to bring cash transactions into Diablo 3; the company has announced the addition of auction houses to the game. You can buy items for gold in one house, and straight-up cash in another. Each region will have a single marketplace, to make sure no currency or exchange issues rear their heads.

'What we've found is that no one's actually done this before,' Rob Pardo, Vice President of Game Design, told Joystiq.'So it has been a long road to getting to where we are today, where we can actually announce we're doing this.'

After you sell an item, you can either remove the money from the game and use it in the real world using an as-yet-unannounced third-party company, or keep it in the game to use on other auctions, Blizzard games, subscription fees, or Blizzard merchandise. While Blizzard won't be selling items directly to increase revenue, Pardo did say that cosmetic items may be sold on the market.

Blizzard is being smart with the revenue coming in from this system: players will be charged a flat fee to list an item, and if it sells there will be another flat fee paid to Blizzard. The company won't make more profit on a more expensive item, and the 'nominal' fee will dissuade players from simply dumping everything they find on the auction block. Since drops are random and only players can sell to other players, the economy is still self-contained.

'There are some people out there that don't have the ability to put a time investment into the game, so they do want to use real-world money to kind of advance their character,' Pardo told Joystiq. 'And the other side of it is that there are people who have a lot of time and don't benefit from it, because they'll be able to generate items, and get better items or cash it out.'

Many of the moves here make sense, and Blizzard is creating the market in such a way that it will only minimally impact the game's world. Well, it should only minimally impact the game's world, but we're have to wait until the masses descend upon Diablo 3 to find out how the community will respond.

The Facts

The Ellen DeGeneres Show is recognized as an American daytime comedy talk show, and DeGeneres is a known comedian and TV host.

Harris appeared on the show in 2018 while a California senator.

At one point, DeGeneres launched a series of random, humorous questions for Harris, saying 'People are gonna want to know more about Kamala Harris.'

In a YouTube video of the interview, DeGeneres questioned Harris at about the 6:00 mark.

She then questioned Harris on who her first celebrity crush was and what was her most rebellious act as a teenager before asking, 'If you had to be stuck in an elevator with either President Trump, Mike Pence or Jeff Sessions, who would it be?'

'Does one of us have to come out alive?' Harris asked before laughing with DeGeneres, prompting laughs from the live studio audience.

DeGeneres moved on without comment, asking Harris another question.

Immediately after Harris' appearance, allegations began to surface against her claiming that she joked about killing Trump, Pence and Sessions.

Josh Caplan, an editor at Breitbart News, tweeted on April 5, 2018 that 'Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) laughs hysterically after joking about killing President Trump during an appearance on The Ellen Show,' in a post that received more than 3,000 likes and more than 3,000 retweets.

Similar tweets appeared on Wednesday after Margolis' tweet on Monday, sharing articles from online sources repeating claims about Harris' joke.

The Ruling
