Mobile Web Best Practices:
61% of people will leave a mobile site if they don’t see what they are looking for straight away.
Many publishers have trouble identifying areas of their sites that need work.
This book summarily rejects the statist monetary orthodoxy. Its nine writers are in full agreement that money is not the product of a legislative act, but the inevitable result of man's division of labor and exchange economy. Wherever enterprising men seek to exchange their goods and services for more marketable goods that facilitate further exchanges for other goods, the precious metals, especially gold, are most suited to serve as money. The writers are aware that for some 2,500 years small pieces of gold and silver, called coins, constituted universal money. It survived two millennia in spite of countless attempts by hosts of governments to manipulate it or replace it with their own media. They are convinced that gold will soon return as universal money and prevail long after the present rash of national fiats is forgotten or relegated to currency museums.
The essays of this collection are the product of a lecture series given at Grove City College during the 1973 Spring Semester.

This document describes a blockchain platform for the telecom industry that aims to improve global mobile service coverage and increase revenue for operators. It outlines issues with current roaming technologies and SIM card options that involve high costs or poor service quality. The proposed blockchain solution would allow subscribers to easily connect to local operators abroad while keeping their domestic number and balance. It would process payments and authorization via smart contracts, removing the need for technical integration between operators. This new approach combines the pros of existing options while eliminating their cons, benefitting both subscribers and operators through lower prices, higher quality service, and reduced costs.
This document describes Smart Media Tokens (SMTs), a token protocol that allows anyone to create tokens on the Steem blockchain that can be used to monetize and incentivize content websites, applications, online communities, and guilds. SMTs provide tools to launch tokens, align incentives between users and applications through reward distributions, and integrate tokens into websites and apps. The document outlines several use cases for SMTs and provides details on how to set up and configure an SMT through parameters like generation policies, inflation rates, and reward curves. It also discusses how SMTs can increase demand for the STEEM token and how the Steem ecosystem supports integration of SMTs.

FLAG CODE OF INDIA, 2002
The Indian National Flag represents the hopes and aspirations of the people of India. It is the symbol of our national pride. Over the last five decades, several people including members of armed forces have ungrudgingly laid down their lives to keep the tricolour flying in its full glory.
There is universal affection and respect for, and loyalty to the National Flag. Yet, a perceptible lack of awareness is often noticed, not only amongst people but also in the organisations/ agencies of the Government, in regard to laws, practices and conventions that apply to the display of the National Flag. Hoisting and use (including misuse and insult) of the National Flag is regulated by the Emblems and Names (Prevention of Improper Use) Act, 1950; the Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, 1971; and Flag Code – India.

Honest Money: The Biblical Blueprint for Money and Banking, by Dr Gary North, Mises Institute
The Bible establishes civil laws governing money. These laws rest on a specific theory of money. Theologians do not recognize this. Neither do economists, who would not care even if they did recognize this. Today's monetary policies violate the Bible's laws governing money.
The Bible is clear on three legal principles: (1) monetary debasement is wrong (Isaiah 1:22); (2) multiple indebtedness, which is the basis of fractional reserve banking, must not be allowed (Exodus 22:26) ; (3) weights and measures must not be tampered with (Lev. 19:36). All three are violated by modern economic policy.
The Federal Reserve System, like every other central bank, is a government-licensed monopoly. It is privately owned. The U.S. government has only indirect power over it through the President's right to appoint Board members. No government accounting organization has access to the records of the Federal Reserve System or its privately owned regional banks.
You know the regional banks are privately owned when you receive mail from them. They do not have the "franking privilege" -- free mail, which is allowed only for government agencies. The Board of Governors does have this privilege.

What is Goldmoney?
• World’s largest 100% reserved gold savings & payments network
• Democratizes access to gold savings & instant gold transfers (anyone can earn gold for their productivity)
• Helps under banked & under served citizens protect their purchasing power
• Building global client relationships by unlocking network utility of a global money base
Gold has been a commodity money for 6,000 years due to its natural properties. It’s also the world’s best performing currency… by a wide margin.
As a store of value, gold is more stable and less volatile than most people recognize – especially when measured against the world’s vast sea of 196 individual government issued currencies.
“
Devoid of modern savings and settlement innovation, gold as money hasn’t been easy or practical for centuries. Until Now…
Introducing Goldmoney
Using technology to make gold easily accessible through a modern global network, making it the best way to save, spend, or earn gold, anywhere in the world.

Rumpelstiltskin at the Fed by Harley Bassman, PIMCO, executive vice presiden...Nigel Mark Dias
Rumpelstiltskin at the Fed by Harley Bassman, PIMCO, executive vice president & portfolio manager
SUMMARY
Has the Federal Reserve reached the bottom of its policy toolkit? Many things are still possible, at least in theory, including negative interest rates (which we believe would be ineffective and potentially harmful) or a “helicopter drop” of money. Another option is to resurrect a successful plan from 83 years ago: Purchase a tremendous amount of gold at a price substantially higher than market levels.
A massive Fed gold purchase program might finally lift the anchor on inflationary expectations and consumers’ spending habits. It would increase the price of a globally recognized store of value. It almost sounds like a fairy tale – but it’s happened before.
Though it seems incredibly farfetched, a massive Fed gold purchase program could echo a Depression-era effort that effectively boosted the U.S. economy.
Warren Buffett famously railed against the shiny yellow metal in 2012 when he noted all the gold in the world could be swapped for the totality of U.S. cropland and seven ExxonMobils with $1 trillion left over for “walking-around money.” His point was that these assets can generate significant returns while owning gold produces no discernable cash flow.
While this observation is certainly true, the rub is that this is not a fair comparison since gold is not an asset; rather, it should be considered an alternate currency. Pundits often describe the five factors that define “money”:
Its supply is controlled or limited,
It is fungible/uniform – this is why diamonds cannot qualify,
It is portable – this is why land cannot qualify,
It is divisible – thus art cannot be money, and
It is liquid – this means people will readily accept it in exchange.
By this definition, gold is certainly a form of money, and to Mr. Buffett’s point, one also earns no cash flow on paper dollars, euros, yen or yuan.
According to Google’s 2015 Connected Consumer Survey, digital is having a profound influence on how people in the UAE live their lives. The widespread use of mobile is a contributing factor, with smartphone adoption taking centre stage.
“Gold should not be viewed as the means to make you rich, but rather, as a means to avoid the debts that can make you poor” -BitGold Inc. May 13, 2015.
"No matter where you live in the world gold has effortlessly held its commodity value over time relative to costs like food and energy that we require as humans, making it one the most important savings tools for most of the human population”.
Our mission is to make gold accessible and useful in digital payments and secure savings.
We're advancing the digital payments revolution by helping people securely acquire, store, and now spend gold with unprecedented simplicity. BitGold accounts are free and can be opened in minutes. We provide users with a secure vault account to purchase and hold gold, the ability to make and receive instant gold payments, and a prepaid card for spending gold at traditional points of sale or converting your gold balance to local currency at any ATM machine. All gold bullion is fully redeemable as 1kg gold bullion bars or 10g GoldCubes®
BitGold takes transparency and accountability seriously. Learn more at Transparency Buying Physical Gold.
A New Global Operating System for Gold BitGold is an internet software service that makes vaulted gold accessible for savings and mobile payments; the first full-reserve ‘online bank’ like platform with e-payments and debit card for sending & spending gold.
BitGold Investor Proposition:
Significant market potential exists across all geographies and all income segments for transaction-accessible savings accounts based on gold as a store of value. GoldMoney believes that it can provide new leadership and innovation in a trillion dollar market by providing a fresh narrative, connecting securely vaulted gold to electronic payment networks that previously did not exist, and by harnessing the connectivity of a growing mobile-internet.
The GoldMoney Proposition is to deliver strong growth in the user and asset base under both brands, building a global network for both savings and transactions. By empowering our clients, and by delivering more value to each individual than we expect to receive in return, we can build a network of lasting relationships in the world's largest commodity-money market. We believe that investing in this relationship can deliver significant value to our shareholders over the long-term, creating a reflexive global-revenue model with a scalable internet financial service, while also benefiting an entire network of stakeholders.

This document provides an introduction to digital media and the internet. It discusses how businesses can acquire customers online through search engine optimization, search engine marketing, digital advertising, and social media. Specific topics covered include how search engines work, the benefits of digital advertising like targeting and measurement, types of internet ads like banners and display ads, and how major social media platforms can help generate business leads. The document also discusses concepts like cookies, measurement metrics, and how customer retention is important online.
The document summarizes key findings from a study on smartphone usage conducted by Google and IPSOS OTX MediaCT in 2011. It found that smartphones are integral to daily life for most users, who use their phones throughout the day for activities like searching, browsing, and apps. Location-based searches and local information are very common on smartphones. Many smartphone users also do online shopping from their phones, both for research and purchases. The document recommends marketers extend online strategies to mobile and incorporate location-based advertising, as ads on smartphones are widely noticed and often prompt actions.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.
