Last Call For A Play In Three Acts
A man argues about the facts of his past in Act I:
The man who recently led a group of armed protesters outside a Texas mosque says that he's being "attacked and smeared" for posting local Muslims' home addresses to Facebook earlier this week.
David Wright, who leads a group of anti-Muslim protesters that calls itself the Bureau of American Islamic Relations (BAIR), listed "the name and address of every Muslim and Muslim sympathizer that stood up for Sharia tribunals in Irving TX" on his Facebook page Tuesday. The list of names appeared to be copied from a document showing which residents urged the Irving City Council to vote against a bill they said was motivated by baseless rumors that a local mosque housed a "Sharia law court."
Wright told local TV station KDFW that the anyone could access the information he posted through the city's website.
He claims in Act II that it wasn't his fault, you see.
But The Dallas Morning News, which first reported the list, noted Thursday that the list of names had disappeared from BAIR's Facebook page. The newspaper also noted that the personal Facebook profile Wright posted the list of names on had disappeared, although he appears to have created a replacement page. Wright posted the list of names again Wednesday afternoon on that new page.
"I am being attacked and smeared by the liberal media for legally exercising my 1st and 2nd Amendment rights and for using public data to defend my credibility when they make accusations against me," Wright wrote on Thursday.
And in Act III, we reveal he has learned nothing.
Wright went on to describe his group as "self defense only" and wrote that none of its members had killed any Muslims.
"You know as well as I do if it was my intention to use this as a hit list then it would have already happened," he added in a comment on the post.

Cause And Defects
In Paris today, President Obama told a gathered climate change conference of world leaders that the US was partially responsible for increasing global warming through carbon emissions, and that it was America's job to do something about it.
President Obama told world leaders who gathered northeast of Paris on Monday for a climate conference that the United States is at least partly to blame for the life-threatening damage that environmental change has wrought, and he urged world leaders to join him in fixing the problem.
"I've come here personally, as the leader of the world's largest economy and the second-largest emitter," Mr. Obama said, "to say that the United States of America not only recognizes our role in creating this problem, we embrace our responsibility to do something about it."
In a speech interrupted by repeated beeps warning that he had exceeded his time limit, Mr. Obama said in Le Bourget that the climate conference represented an important turning point in world history because the leaders attending the meeting now recognize the urgency of the problem.
"No nation — large or small, wealthy or poor — is immune," he said.
The greatest threat to reaching a binding climate accord may be a loose coalition of developing nations, led by India, who argue that they should not be asked to limit their economic growth as a way of fixing a problem that was largely created by the others, and Mr. Obama conceded that point.
"We know the truth that many nations have contributed little to climate change but will be the first to feel its most destructive effects," he said.
He promised money to help the poorest nations transition to economies that depend less on burning fossil fuels, but he said a delay was not acceptable.
"For I believe, in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., that there is such a thing as being too late," Mr. Obama said. "And when it comes to climate change, that hour is almost upon us."
Imagine any of the GOP 2016 clown car crew saying this. You'd be far more likely to have the official position of the US government be that climate change is a fraud, that scientists have to be investigated and prosecuted, and that America needed to level sanctions against countries that did believe in the science.
Needless to say, the right will go insane over this. Watch.

Not The RIght Kind Of Terrorism To Be Terrorism
If you're somehow curious as to what Ted Cruz's response would be as President to abortion clinic violence, it's exactly what you'd expect it to be, as he displayed at a campaign stop in Iowa yesterday.
Speaking to reporters after a stop here Sunday afternoon, Cruz rejected a potential connection between anti-abortion activism and the shooting, instead taking issue with "some vicious rhetoric on the left blaming those who are pro-life." The shooting, which happened Friday in Colorado Springs, left a police officer and two civilians dead, and a suspect, Robert Dear, has been taken into custody.
"The media promptly wants to blame him on the pro-life movement when at this point there's very little evidence to indicate that," Cruz said.
When a reporter reminded Cruz it has been reported Dear made a comment about "baby parts" while being apprehended, Cruz retorted, "It's also been reported that he was registered as an independent and a woman and a transgendered leftist activist. If that's what he is, I don't think it's fair to blame on the rhetoric on the left. This is a murderer."
Cruz's claim appeared to be based on a voter registration form that lists Dear's gender as female. "We know that he was a man who was registered to vote as a woman," Cruz said.
Asked if we could call the shooting an act of domestic terrorism — as former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has — Cruz again urged caution about drawing conclusions from the shooting at this point.
"I would call it a murder, and we'll see what the facts are," Cruz replied. "It was a multiple murder of what appears to be a deranged individual. And it was horrific, it was evil, and we'll find out more out about the facts, but I don't think we should jump to conclusions."
Cruz is a couple hash browns short of a Waffle House on the best of days, but this is calculated. Just days after Republicans started screaming that Democrats couldn't protect us from scary brown Muslims who would shoot us up and kill us all at shopping centers on Black Friday, the people actually killing folks (including cops) in places of business are Christian right-wing anti-abortion soldiers.
Ergo, the right can't have this reality be reality. It reminds voters that there might be people more dangerous to average Americans than ISIS, and that our terrorism problem isn't with Muslim fundamentalist nutjobs, but the Christian ones.
That would mean the threat to America is white Christian guys with guns, and we can't have that, hence Cruz's bonkers assertion that the guy is a "transgendered leftist murderer" and not a right-wing white guy with an AK-47.
Voters might ask questions about the kind of rhetoric the GOP has been using in the wake of those Planned Parenthood videos earlier this year, you see. And we can't have that.
The terrorists we have aren't the right kind of terrorists, you see. People who kill Iraq War vets, campus cops, and married mothers of two have to be Muslim terrorists on a rampage (or worse, liberals) not right-wing Christian conservatives blasting people in abortion clinics.
And they will deny Colorado Springs forever.

No. Each student should submit a separate proposal, and the budgets should reflect different expenses.


I absolutely believe in the theory of demand and supply. Although the market has now started manipulating the demand by creating a fake demand for marketing some cheap and faux foods, the faux foods are made desirable using the medium of advertising, sponsored research and peer reviewing.
In such a situation we as consumers have a bigger responsibility in ensuring the food and ingredients we get are real if not organically grown. We must start asking for foods and ingredients that we want and not fall for what is available, the market responds.
My experience is that when I started asking my neighborhood subziwalas to bring chane ka saag (chickpea shoots) they slowly started bringing and now I see many of them bring it more frequently. Likewise happened for many other greens, heirloom varieties of lime, cucumbers and many more native vegetables. Similar has happened to black carrots too and I am so glad to see them in abundance this year more than ever. That needs to be celebrated and I have been cooking with black carrots a lot this season.
And black carrots are cheaper than the last few years this time, almost half the price I must add. Good news.
And when I want to use a lot of one particular vegetable I normally soup it up. Imagine you consume about 300 gm black carrots in one meal. So much antioxidants and flavonoids in one meal and I do take care to supplement it with enough proteins and fats so the meal is balanced, nutrient absorption is taken care of.
Heat the oil in a pressure cooker pan or a deep pan and tip in the garlic, onion and diced black carrots. Add salt and pepper and toss and stir till it all looks glazed and slightly browned at the edges.
Add marjoram or whatever herbs you are using, toss a little and add about 100 ml water. Fix the lid and cook till the first whistle blows. Take off the heat and let the cooker cool. I normally do this in the morning when I cook my breakfast and lunch and leave the pressure cooker undisturbed till required for the dinner.
If coking in a stock pot you need a little more water, cook covered till softened.
Now blend the contents when the soup needs to be served. Transfer the contents of the cooker to a blender along with tahini, yogurt and a little water if required. Blend till smooth.
Transfer to the pot and simmer, adjust seasoning and serve topped with broken walnuts and chunks of feta cheese.
This has been a satisfying delicious soup this season. We normally didn't need any breads with it but you can serve some garlic bread with it and make the meal even more interesting.
We keep some broken walnuts and feta chunks on the side for this soup and keep adding as we go. It does add a lot of texture and flavor to this thick and creamy soup.
Do try soon and let me know if you like. The soup can be made with beet root too but I think the flavours may need some fine tuning as black carrots and beets have very different flavour profile. If you use half red carrots and half beets it might be a better idea.
I crave for my soup dinners when I am traveling trust me. Just back from a long trip to Hyderabad where I was attending the National Permaculture Convergence and even presented 2 sessions about 'health, nutrition and it's correlation with soil' and another on 'native and wild foods'. More on that later, enjoy black carrot soup with walnuts and feta till then.
Black carrots .. very new and looks very refreshing ..

We like the more updated look of off-center cutouts, but you can go more traditional by keeping the cutouts centered.
Whisk together both flours, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
Beat together sugar, butter, oil, and zest in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg. Add flour mixture; beat on low speed just until combined. Divide dough in half. Roll each half between 2 sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap to a thickness somewhere between 1/8 and 1/4 inch. Place dough halves on a baking sheet, and freeze until firm, about 20 to 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove parchment from 1 dough half. Working quickly, cut with a 2-inch round cutter to form 30 rounds, rerolling scraps as necessary. (Refreeze dough if it gets too soft.) Arrange cookies 2 inches apart on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F until lightly browned around edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets set on a wire rack for 2 minutes. Transfer cookies directly to wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Uncover remaining dough half. Working quickly, cut with a 2-inch round cutter to form 30 rounds, rerolling scraps as necessary. Cut out center of each round with a 1-inch round cutter, off-center for a more modern appearance if you like. (Refreeze dough if it gets too soft.) Discard center dough circles, or bake to enjoy later. Arrange cookies on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F until lightly browned around edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets set on a wire rack for 2 minutes. Transfer cookies directly to wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Hillary Clinton says alleged Russian hacking into US election campaign is posing serious threats
US Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton says the alleged Russian hacking into the country's election campaign is posing serious "threats," calling it "almost unthinkable." The hacking "raises some grave questions about potential Russian interference with our electoral process," Clinton said on Monday.
"We are going to have to take those threats and attacks seriously," the former secretary of state told reporters traveling with her by airplane between campaign events in the Midwest. "We have to be doubly on guard to protect our electoral system at all levels and we have to make it clear that we're not going to let anyone interfere with the decisions of the American people," Clinton said.
On July 22, the whistle-blowing website Wikileaks published thousands of hacked emails obtained from the Democratic National Convention's servers, exposing an insider effort by DNC officials in favor of Clinton to undermine Senator Bernie Sanders' bid for the White House. American intelligence agencies said that they had "high confidence" that the Russian government was behind the hacking.
The attacks caused the FBI to issue a "flash alert" to election officials nationwide earlier last month. The agency urged them to remain vigilant in the face of any similar cyber intrusions. "The FBI is requesting that states contact their Board of Elections and determine if any similar activity to their logs, both inbound and outbound, has been detected," the alert said.
Russia has, however, denied responsibility for hacking the emails of the DNC and a computer network used by Clinton's campaign. "Moscow has carefully avoided any actions, any words that could be interpreted as direct or indirect influence on the electoral process," said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on July 27.

We do not need the File Browser, File Organiser, Help, or Repository panels for this demo, so we will close them by using the close widgets at the top right corner of each panel. Note that all closed panels can be re-displayed by enabling them in the View menu, or by using the Tools menu Reset All option. All panels in OpenCOR can be moved, undocked and re-docked - this allows you to arrange the interface in the way you find most convenient.
After closing the file panels, go to the File menu and select Open. Browse to the folder where you unzipped the collection of models for this demonstration, and select the hodgkin_huxley_squid_axon_model_1952_original file. Alternatively, you can drag and drop this file into the central area (model editing panel) of the OpenCOR window.
In the Editing window you will see the raw XML of the CellML code. Click on the Simulation tab at the left hand edge of the window to enter simulation mode. You will see three main areas - at the left hand side of the window are the Simulation, Solvers, and Parameters panels. At the right hand side is the graph panel, and running along the bottom of the window is a status area, where status messages are displayed.
This area is used to set up the simulation settings.
Starting point - the value of the variable of integration (often time) at which the simulation will begin.
Ending point - the point at which the simulation will end.
Point interval - the interval between data points on the variable of integration.
This area is used to configure the solver that will run the simulation.
Name - this is used to set the solver algorithm. OpenCOR will only allow you to choose solvers appropriate to the type of problem you are simulating. That is, CVODE or Forward Euler for ODE (ordinary differential equation) problems, IDA for DAE (differential algebraic equation) problems, and KINSOL for NLA (non-linear algebraic) problems.
Other parameters for the chosen solver - eg. maximum step size, number of steps, and tolerance settings for CVODE and IDA. For more information on the solver parameters, please refer to the documentation for the particular solver.
This panel lists all the model parameters, and allows you to select one or more to plot against the variable of integration in the graph panel. Note that in the future, OpenCOR will support graphing of any parameter against any other. All variables from the model are listed here, arranged by the components in which they appear, and in alphabetical order. Parameters are displayed with their variable name, their value, and their units.
Just above the Simulation panel are controls for running the simulation - there are run, stop, and interval delay controls.
Click on the run control now. You will see (depending on how fast your computer is!) a progress bar running along the bottom of the status window. Status messages about the successful simulation will be displayed.
To graph the membrane voltage of the Hodgkin Huxley squid axon model, click in the check box next to the V parameter in the membrane component. If you wish to see the graph being plotted during the simulation, raise the delay control to a few milliseconds, and run the simulation again. You should see a graph like the one shown below.
The package of models contains a variety of CellML models that demonstrate the range of language features supported by OpenCOR. You can try loading and running these models now.
Note that it is possible to pause a running simulation, alter a model parameter value, then continue the simulation. In this way, you can see the effect of changing model parameters on the output of the model, and directly compare it to the standard parameter graph. See the zhang_SAN_model_2000_all.cellml section for more information.
This is another electrophysiology model, and running it with the default settings will give you a useful graph when selecting membrane/V to be plotted.
This is a simple sine model using the import features of CellML 1.1. The import element allows a model to use elements of another model. This enables re-use of existing model components, for example membrane channels or reactions that have already been coded up in other models. For more information on modular modelling using CellML 1.1, see the tutorial on modularity, or download one or both of the CellML 1.1 tutorials on the tutorials page (note - these tutorials still use the old OpenCell application).
This is a simple demonstration of DAE models.
This is another DAE model, but this one also requires a non-linear algebraic solver.
This is a model of action potentials in the rabbit sino-atrial node. The appropriate simulation settings for this model are an end point of 1 second, and an interval of 0.001 seconds. Graph the membrane/V parameter.
Try running this model with a large interval delay (10-20 milliseconds, for example) and pausing the simulation when the action potential is about to depolarise again . Now edit the L_type_Ca_channel component parameter G_Ca_L_Center0DCapable, changing the value to 0 microsiemens. This essentially blocks the L-type Ca2+ channel, hence "killing" the cell in the simulation. Resume the simulation by clicking run again, and the rest of the graph will show no further action potentials, as show below.
The Zhang 2000 model run for 1 second.
The Zhang 2000 model interrupted and "killed"

Q: Grails app.servlet.version OR grails.servlet.version? Do I need to configure both app.servlet.version and grails.servlet.version?
The former is in application.properties and the latter in BuildConfig.groovy
Better safe than sorry? I just don't like redundancy.
See related:

*

*Changing app.servlet.version does not affect web.xml

A: It would seem like you do not need to have or set an entry in application.properties IF there is an entry in your BuildConfig.groovy file.
To confirm this I looked in the grails war file creator (GrailsProjectWarCreator.groovy) code and saw that it does indeed use the apps BuildConfig setting to populate the application.properties file when building the war.

Q: Request to web service with Basic authorization via proxy with NTLM authorization not working I have a web service that requires basic authorisation and a user behind an internet proxy that requires NTLM authorisation. I also have a forms application that makes calls to the web service and also asks the user for the web service credentials (which are different from the NTLM credentials).
I got the app configuration working (WCF ServiceModel), it's using the default proxy credentials, the request is authenticating with the proxy, but after it authenticates with the web service it does not send the request body for some reason.
The process works if I test locally without the NTLM proxy. Sorry about the long examples, but I had to include them.

A: I had to change the server security configuration to accept Digest authentication. For some reason that works while Basic doesn't.

A: I encountered a potentially similar issue and believe in my case this may be related to the establishment of the original NTLM connection to the proxy.
In my experience I had three requests going out in sequence each hour, with a retry configured.
Of these requests two would work, one would fail with a 400, and then when the first retried it worked as well.
There is a similiar issue with IE identified here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/asiatech/archive/2012/01/30/400-bad-request-when-posting-webservice-or-wcf-request-from-ie.aspx
I ran some network traces and watched the behaviour and noticed that often the TCP Streams seemed to get shared, so that one of the requests would end up sending an NTLM authentication message (the zero content length) to the proxy after the other had already authenticated. In this situation the proxy just passed through the zero content message (as the stream had already authenticated).
What fixed it for me was moving to a WCF-Custom customBinding (using textMessageEncoding with a messageVersion of Soap11 to maintain my basicHttpBinding behaviour) and (not sure if required) setting keepAliveEnabled to false.
Unfortunately I doubt this is much help for your particular situation, but more info never hurts.

Reston Association will celebrate 15 years as a Certified Community Wildlife Habitat in 2015. A Community Wildlife Habitat is a community where the residents make it a priority to provide habitat for wildlife by providing the four basic elements wildlife need: food, water, cover and places to raise young.
Claudia Thompson-Deahl, RA's Senior Environmental Resource Manager, started the certification process at the beginning of the millennium by initiating a community wide initiative. Claudia spoke at cluster and condo meetings, went to different businesses in Reston, and even approached various individuals throughout the community to encourage them to certify their backyards through the National Wildlife Federation's certification program. Claudia helped certify over 100 properties, held several educational workshops and talks, organized native plant sales and attended many festivals to educate the community about creating healthy wildlife habitats.
If you would like to garden for wildlife and certify your property, please go to the National Wildlife Federation website.
Everyone with a house and a yard, whether in the country or the suburbs, has a little bit of nature around them. Songbirds, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, opossums, raccoons and deer provide opportunities to enjoy wildlife. However, sometimes these same creatures in their search for food and nesting sites can cause homeowners distress. The following information presents some hints that will help homeowners co-exist with suburban wildlife, not surrender to them.
One food source that many animals readily utilize is your vegetable garden. Some people choose simply to plant a little extra for the wildlife. However, when the toll becomes too great, the best protection is a fence. To be rabbit-, groundhog-, skunk-, and dog-proof, the fence should be 4 feet high, with 6-8 inches buried in the ground to deter burrowers. Chicken fencing will work, although galvanized welded wire fencing with 1 x 2 inch mesh is stronger and will last longer.
For those not interested in investing in a fence, the following repellents are recommended, although not guaranteed: a dog, a 3-foot width of black plastic laid around the garden, fox urine which can be obtained at a hunting/trapping store or wind flags.
Probably the biggest wildlife-related headache for a homeowner is animals that decide to share the house. The best deterrent is preventive maintenance. Check and replace loose or rotten eaves, fasten boards and shingles in early spring and fall. These are the times when animals are most actively looking for nesting and over-wintering sites. Also screen louvers, air vents, attic fans or any other openings that provide an entrance for birds or animals. Usually, heavy-gauge hardware cloth with quarter-inch mesh will keep birds, squirrels and bats out of attics. To foil raccoons, however, welded wire fencing, 9-gauge expanded metal screen or plywood should be used.
Animals should be removed as soon as they're discovered to prevent their having young in your attic. Squirrels and raccoons can usually be chased out with a broom. Another method is to place 3 or 4 pounds of moth crystals in containers in the attic in order to make the area uninhabitable. Once the animal is removed, the entrance hole must be sealed to prevent its return.
Animals such as chipmunks, groundhogs and, occasionally, opossums or skunks will burrow under concrete porches or garages. Using mulch or keeping grass cut short around these areas will make them less attractive burrowing sites. Once a burrow is found, search the entire area for other entrances. Plug all the entrances except one and sprinkle some flour in front of this entrance. Then, check for tracks leaving the burrow. When the animal leaves, fill the hole with rocks and cover with dirt. Some ammonia sprinkled around each entrance will help discourage animals from starting new dens. If you can't catch the animal out of its burrow, encourage its leaving by pouring one-half to one gallon of household ammonia into the den, then spread the flour and check for tracks.
Chimneys are another attractive denning site for birds, squirrels and raccoons. Installing a heavy-duty steel chimney cap with a 9-gauge expanded metal screen is the best way to prevent a lot of problems. A light-gauge aluminum and hardware-cloth chimney cap will not keep a persistent raccoon out of your chimney. These caps are usually available at hardware or department stores or from chimney cleaning outfits.
If you discover a raccoon in the chimney, evict it as soon as possible by opening the damper a little bit and building a small, smoky fire out of damp newspapers. An alternative is pouring a pound of moth crystals down the chimney, although this will take longer to remove the raccoon than smoke. Watch for the raccoon to leave and immediately install a chimney cap or heavy-duty spark screen. Care must be taken between April and June in order not to trap young raccoons inside chimneys. If you suspect young are in the chimney, consult the local humane society or wildlife administration office.
If none of these tricks work on problem wildlife, traps may be a last resort. Call Reston Association at (703) 437-9580 for more information.

Q: Interface / Logic design technique in c I have an interface which will allow external subsystems to use my system.
Do C programs usually use interfaces?
I have a core logic module which I want to use to handle the core of the system, this would mean that the interface would send the data to the core and the core will pass the data along possibly returning data too.
Is this a good way of doing things? It feels like there is an extra layer of data passing which is possibly not needed. On the other hand, I wouldnt want the interface to be directly connected to the lower system.
Is this extra layer of data handling a good thing or is it redundant?

A: Do C programs usually use interfaces?

*

*Header files represent an interface

Is this a good way of doing things?

*

*IMHO yes. In object orientation it is called Facade Pattern and hides the complexity of the underlying components. And provides a simpler API to the client.

Is this extra layer of data handling a good thing or is it redundant?

*

*If things aren't trivial it is worth the effort to implement the extra layer.

A: It may make sense to copy data from external subsystems to your system. One situation I can think of is when the data is transient so must be copied while it is still available. It really depends on how your module will be used.
Once the data is in your system though, it doesn't make sense to copy it further. I wouldn't copy it from your "interface module" to your "core logic module", for example. Copying data will just slow the program down without any benefit.

In NFTs and Blockchain technology, we trust? by Benjamin Ho
by Benjamin Ho |
Are we in a crisis of confidence? Trust in institutions—governments, medicine, media—has been in decline for decadesand a lack of confidence in public health programs has fueled COVID-related deaths. It seems like every day we see news stories about misleading leaders or evasive government officials, giving us new reasons to be wary of the companies and institutions we have always relied on.
Can we then find hope in the form of technologies that allow us to trust each other in new ways, through new institutions?
Twitter recently added a feature which allows users to identify themselves with an NFT image, distinguished by a new hexagonal border, rather than just a profile picture. An NFT (non-fungible token abbreviation) is a digital commodity, usually an image, whose ownership is recorded on a ledger stored on a blockchain. This definition probably makes no sense to the average consumer; indeed, many businessmen view NFTs as frivolous and a fad.
But the technology underlying NFTs reminds us of something crucial about how we function in society. Twitter's decision isn't just a gimmick, it's also about trust: the trust people place in new technologies, but also the trust we place in each other. NFTs create new ways for us to trust, based on self-expression.
My research focuses on the history of trust, from its hunter-gatherer origins to its fundamental role in today's economy. It's a story about how humans learned to work together over great distances. Extensive cooperation carries risks – it is much easier to trust your neighbor than a supplier across the ocean – but the institutions that facilitate trust have enabled us to form societies that create and innovate globally. Today, trust permeates every part of the modern economy. You can see it in the money we use that is backed by the full "faith" and "credit" of the government (the word credit comes from the Latin word for trust). New institutions, like those that allow strangers to ride in our cars (Uber) or sleep in our homes (Airbnb), are also building trust.
Blockchain technology and its primary application, Bitcoin, were designed to shift the place of trust from centralized institutional authorities to decentralized networks, using a computer algorithm. A blockchain provides a way to store a ledger (think of a spreadsheet) not just on a single computer, but spread across thousands, so that no untrustworthy bad actor can manipulate the ledger on their own purposes. Bitcoin is simply a currency, where the record of how much money you have is stored on a ledger distributed over the internet, rather than in a stack of paper bills or on a computer in a bank.
Many blockchain proponents believe that the technology will allow us to manage the exchange of money or property rights without the burden of bureaucratic rules and outdated systems imposed by old institutions. Yet it often tries to solve "problems" that are already mastered by trusted systems. Few of us worry that the banks we use will lose our money or that the Federal Reserve will depreciate the US dollar. Moreover, removing people from the system and replacing them with an algorithm creates its own new set of problems. For example, while records stored on blockchains are protected from interference by complex computer algorithms, accessing your money in these systems often only requires a password or "digital key". What happens when someone loses their password? Billions have been lost on the blockchain in such cases. And billions have been stolen from blockchains by hackers exploiting errors in the computer code.
However, blockchain technology can be useful in reviving trust in new institutions in developing countries. Game theory and economic experiments (as well as everyday experience) suggest that trust is earned through repeated interactions, forged by customs and norms that can take generations to develop. The US financial system has had hundreds of years to build trust, but people in a developing country with relatively new and/or weak legal institutions may be less likely to trust a new bank. New decentralized financial services, powered by blockchain technologies, could be particularly useful in building trust in such environments. El Salvador recently became the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, hoping to capitalize on these new innovations.
Many of our interactions with other people already happen online. As our social lives become digital, perhaps in the coming metaverse, people will spend more and more money to express themselves online, just as they do in the offline world today. today.
New digital geographies also lack trusted stories and institutions, and therefore could benefit from blockchain technology. Which brings us back to NFTs.
An NFT allows someone to claim ownership of a particular instance of a digital asset. Once created, NFTs can be bought and sold, with fees for each transaction going to the blockchain and associated service providers. Such services could easily have been provided by a government, which already maintains records to track ownership of digital property rights such as patents and copyrights. But governments are slow to adopt new technologies. Similarly, a private entity could also have offered similar services, but creators are less likely to entrust the monitoring of their art to a for-profit company or a new organization. Placing NFTs on a blockchain speeds up the process of getting creators and consumers to trust the new system, as the technology helps ensure transaction transparency and protection against manipulation.
Why would we want to claim ownership of an instance of a digital image in the first place? Because, more and more, we live in the digital world. Many of our interactions with other people already happen online. As our social lives become digital, perhaps in the coming metaverse, people will spend more and more money to express themselves online, just as they do in the offline world today. today.
They could buy digital clothes. A die main sources of income from video games is in-app purchases, including digital outfits for a player's avatar to wear in-game. Aloy, a video game character, was recently featured on inaugural digital cover of Vanity Fair Italy. Companies like Nike sold virtual shoes for Fortnite game players and are moving to sell you shoe NFTs that would only exist in the metaverse.
Buying and wearing clothes is a way of expressing ourselves. For now, that means publicly displaying our clothed bodies in physical spaces. When someone buys designer clothes today, they don't own the right to reproduce that garment, just the right to show that particular (expensive) instance of the garment and wear it. Until now, there was no easy way to buy a digital designer outfit the same way we would buy a physical designer outfit. NFTs are changing that and opening up a world of expression online, creating a system that protects creators by allowing consumers to distinguish between licensed and unlicensed copies of digital goods.
This kind of expression counts. In some of my research with Jonah Berger and Yogesh Joshi, we find that the brands we buy – in fact everything we buy – convey to the world something about who we are: our social status, our personality, our reliability. For example, psychological experiments find that people can form surprisingly accurate assessments of someone's personality simply by observing the objects in their room.
Our fashion choices and other purchases, whether digital or not, reflect who we are. Throughout history, humans have (for better or worse) used shared identity – shared family, shared ethnicity, shared religion and shared language, but also shared taste for music, movies or sports teams – as a way to decide who to trust and therefore engage in business, romance, friendship, and more.
The new Twitter NFT feature is designed to allow Twitter users to further personalize their social media profiles in the same way our clothes are exposed to the world, but with added confirmation of its value. Some lament energy costs of NFTs and their contributions to climate change, but these costs are small compared to the emissions associated with other expressive goods like fast fashion.
Others lament the rise of NFTs as another overrated Silicon Valley tech trend, representing the excesses of late capitalism. I see it as something different – another way for humans to do what we've always done, to find new ways to express ourselves authentically, and to connect with the people we trust.


Leave it is one the most basic commands all dogs should know. In fact, we consider it one of the most important as it could save your dog's life. The command is used to tell your dog to leave something alone or not to go after something.
To teach your dog the leave it command, make sure you use a treat that your dog loves. Drop a treat on the floor and cover it with your foot. Your dog will probably go after the treat. Leave your foot over the treat and say "leave it." Wait patiently until your your dog backs away from the treat on the floor. A soon as he backs away, give him a release command such as "yes" or "ok" and reward him with a different treat. Challenge your dog further by having your dog look at you before you reward, by leaving your foot off the treat on the floor, or by throwing a treat on the floor. It's important that you never give your dog the treat that was on the floor. You want him to know that that is always off limits. Always give him a different treat. Use the leave it command on shoes, the remote control, kid toys, or anything else you don't want your dog to chew up. You can also use the leave it command if your dog is trying to eat something off the floor or ready to chase after squirrels. If your dog has a hard time with this command, try using a higher value treat to reward with than the treat on the the floor.
How did your dog do? Take a photo or video and share it with everyone!

ABOUT VLADO ILIEVSKI
Vlatko Ilievski, one of the most popular pop rock singers in Macedonia, is well known for his many talents: he is a musician, an actor, a composer, and a TV host.
Vlatko was born in Skopje on 2 July 1985. His fascination with music began when he started playing the guitar and the piano at the age of nine. After performing with his band "Made in Macedonia" at Macedonian rock festivals, he was offered a lead singer role in the hard rock group "Moral". He was only 15! Their album "Koga patuvam" ("When I Travel"), released in 2003, was a big success, and two years later "Moral" performed at Deep Purple's concert in Skopje as their opening act.
Vlatko launched his solo career with the hit "Uste si mi ti" ("You're Still My Own") and has since made numerous successful appearances at many festivals, such as Skopje Festival, Makfest, Ohrid fest, Suncane skale, etc.
His first solo album "So drugi zborovi" ("In Other Words"), released in 2008, was a huge success both with the audience and music reviewers.
Many songs from his second album "Najbogat na svet" ("Richest in the World"), released in 2010, still top national charts.
Vlatko Ilievski is the first Macedonian singer who performed in the country's biggest concert venue — "Boris Trajkovski" — in June 2010, in front of 10,000 fans.
He won numerous awards, including two first prizes at Ohrid Fest 2009, both in the Macedonian Pop Songs Selection and the International Selection, together with Risto Samardziev for the song "Za ljubov se pee do kraj" ("Sing for Love Till The End"), Macedonian Radio Hit Award for 2009 for "Najbogat na svet", Macedonian Radio Hit Award for 2010 for "Srekja" ("Happiness"), Best Concert of 2010, and others.
In 2011 Vlatko performed at the National ESC selection for the fourth time. He nearly scored victory in 2010, when his song "Srekja" won the same number of points as the winning song, but according to the rules he came second. In 2011 his song "Rusinka" ("Russian Girl") won convincingly, receiving 12 points both from the audience and the jury.
Vlatko's other passion is acting. He graduated from the Skopje Faculty of Dramatic Arts in June 2010 and stars in a popular TV series, "Od denes za utre" ("Living on the Edge").

San Pedro de Alcantara is close to Puerto Banus and Marbella, yet has a character all of its own. It has a lovely old town, with a car-free street leading up to the pretty town square with a great café culture. There are often special events, parades and a huge weekly market to take advantage of and there is a plethora of language schools if you want to work on your Spanish. The old town area is pretty and quaint, but can be tricky to navigate in a car, with lots of one way roads and limited parking.
This is balanced by the other face of San Pedro which is the area between the sea and the main road. This area has a large number of modern developments of attractive flats and houses which represent excellent long term rental properties and are decorated to appeal to foreign tastes. The sea front has a great promenade, restaurants and bars, wide sandy beaches and plays host to regular events such as the Arte Sano festival at the end of November.
The residents of the area have been suffering whilst the long overdue bypass was being constructed and a lot of the main street was undergoing construction and repairs, but now they are reaping the rewards and have a beautiful public park, lots of new amenities and much less traffic going through the centre. But it doesn't end there, the council is planning to build a new bus station covering 120 square meters with parking around the old 340 bypass road.
Rental properties are surprisingly well-priced, especially compared to nearby Puerto Banus, and renting long-term in San Pedro allows you to mix comfort, modernity and space with the benefits of being able to be part of a thriving Spanish community. Read our San Pedro area guide for more information.
Renting long term on the Costa del Sol is a dream come true for most foreign residents – the great weather, wonderful lifestyle, excellent facilities, laid back life and a family-friendly atmosphere, but there is one stumbling block for most of us – the language.
It's particularly tricky here as there are strong foreign communities and lots of support in place for non-Spanish speakers, so the necessity isn't there to really push yourself to learn. People live here for many years without mastering the language, but those that do make the effort, experience a much better level of integration with the community, get a wider understanding of the culture and are able to cope better with things like the medical system, schools and the service providers like electricity, phone and water companies.
There are lots of courses on offer, from subsidised courses put on by the local Town Hall which you can get access to if you are registered on the empadron, to intensive classes at language schools or private classes. Pop down to your local town hall or Casa del Cultura to find out what they offer there, or look through the local papers to find classes and schools near you.
One interesting option if you like to chat more than study is a new company just launched here called Club de Conversación Marbella which is bridging the gap between relaxed classes and unfocussed conversation by organising conversational Spanish classes from beginners to advanced. They have a qualified Spanish teacher who comes to a relaxed environment such as a bar or café and runs a class which is really practical and interactive and where the focus is useful conversational vocabulary that you can actually practice with.
We've also created a number of useful posts about learning Spanish which you can refer to and will be regularly updated for you to keep practicing.

Why Putin may be hiding the REAL figures of coronavirus deaths in Russia
Dr Anastasia Vasilyeva trained as an eye surgeon, but quit her profession to set up the medical trade union Doctors' Alliance in Moscow in August 2018, which now has 48 divisions in 40 different regions of Russia and around 2,000 members. She has been a vocal critic of Putin's general health policies, which she blames for the destruction of the healthcare system, as well as his response to the COVID-19 pandemic. During this current health crisis, the medical activist has consistently criticised the government for failing to provide hospitals with personal protective equipment (PPE) along with other basic medical supplies, and has claimed that doctors have been ordered to cover up COVID-19 deaths.
For her troubles, the trade union leader has been increasingly targeted by the security services, who are trying to supress her activities at every step.
Dr Vasilyeva explained to Express.co.uk why she believed the authorities were tightening the screws against her and her organisation.
She said: "Our organisation is showing the whole population of Russia the destruction of the healthcare system.
Great Big Lockdown Survey: Tell us what life's like for you by answering THESE questions
"We are showing the real problems, but the government tries to tell the people that everything is good.
"They don't want us to tell the truth. They just want to lie about this and make people think that everything is good, and that the politics is good and the healthcare system is good.
"It is just a psychological influence to the population that Putin is good and his politics.
"So that is why they don't like anybody who tells the truth about the difficult situation in education, in medicine, in the sciences."
In a sign that the coronavirus pandemic is already damaging his popularity, a new opinion poll published on Monday showed that Russians' trust in Vladimir Putin had fallen to a 14-year low.
JUST IN: Russia warns it will treat US missile strike as a NUCLEAR attack
The poll was carried out by the state-funded VTsIOM polling agency, which showed that just 28.3 percent of Russians named Putin, when asked to name a politician whom they trust.
Over the past few weeks, Dr Vasilyeva has received a summons from the Investigative Committee (Department of Public Prosecutions) to attend an "interview" as well as being contacted by the Social Services department, inquiring about the health and well-being of her children.
She was also arrested and detained overnight by police at the beginning of April, after trying to deliver medical supplies to a hospital in the small town of Okulovka, in Russia's north west.
However, the former eye specialist has vowed to continue her campaign, insisting that she has no political ambitions and that her main motivation is simply to improve healthcare for the public.

She said: "One of the most important institutions of the country is medical. If the medical system is bad, then the politics of the country is bad towards the people.
"I don't want to be involved in politics, but I see the politics such as Putin and his government, they made our people to suffer from the bad healthcare system and bad political decisions lead to the bad health of Russia and suffering from diseases and the big mortality, and so on."
She added: "This is social politics. It is very important for the good life of the people and it includes the healthcare system and education.
"I don't really want to be in politics – I just want to influence politics to make the healthcare system much better."
Russia spends just three percent of GDP on its health service, while most western European countries invest around 9 percent of GDP in the health sector.
Moreover, Putin's government has been pursuing a so-called "optimisation" programme of medical services, which has led to severe cutbacks and the supressing of wages for doctors and nurses.
In one of his key pledges during the 2012 presidential elections, Putin promised to double and even triple doctors' salaries, something he has spectacularly failed to deliver on.
Russian doctors working in state hospitals earn on average around just £520 a month according to surveys by medical unions, and often work long unpaid overtime hours, while ambulance drivers and nurses can earn as little as £100 a month.
As a result of the low wages and working conditions, every year some 10 percent of doctors leave the healthcare profession, which has led to a shortage of more than 25,000 medical staff, with the regions often worse off.
On Tuesday, Vladimir Putin sought to reassure Russians about the pandemic, which has seen infections explode to overtake China's total.
During a televised address to the nation, the president claimed that the situation had "relatively stabilised" but that the situation was "still very serious".
He said: "The peak is not behind us, we are about to face a new and gruelling phase of the pandemic… the deadly threat of the virus remains."
