A tribute to martyrs
A tribute to martyrsRohan BendreThe document discusses the bravery of those who stand united against criminals, the importance of active participation and unification in enacting massive change to the country. It stresses that unity of the common man is needed to continue the important task of capturing evasive criminals and showing them the deserved punishment, in order to achieve the intended result of plenty of achievements and progress despite ongoing attempts by enemies to attack.
Buyers
BuyersBUYSIDE Realty AdvisorsThis document provides several financial reasons to buy a home rather than rent, supported by quotes from studies and reports. It argues that owning a home allows homeowners to leverage appreciation through equity building, pay down their own principal over time rather than a landlord's, and can encourage savings. There are also substantial tax benefits to owning and homes generally appreciate to hedge against inflation, unlike rent payments. Data shows homeowners have significantly higher net worth and feel more financially comfortable than renters. With low inventory and rising rents, buying is more affordable both initially and over the long-term for most homeowners.

Crowdfinance redefining wall street
Crowdfinance redefining wall streetDara AlbrightCrowdfinance is the future of capital markets, where financing comes from pooling small amounts of money from many individuals rather than large institutions. It allows citizens to invest in innovations and ideas from other citizens, governed by the same principles that built America initially. While crowdfinancing has progressed from its early stages, the author believes it is headed towards further growth and becoming a mainstream source of financing.
Dan Denning 
Dan Denning SymposiumThis document argues that returning to the gold standard would promote fairness in Australia. It claims that gold limits government power and promotes individual liberty by providing an objective measure of value that is not subject to manipulation. The document asserts that a monetary system based on gold would lead to greater economic fairness, equality of opportunity, sustainable growth, and reward for productive labor by preventing fractional reserve banking and inflation. It contends that stable prices reduce financial volatility and social instability. Overall, the document promotes replacing fiat money with gold as the basis for the monetary system in order to create a more just and stable society.
Stable versus Unstable Economy 
Stable versus Unstable Economy Camille Silla PaldiThe document discusses responsible and stable economies. A responsible economy issues currency backed by gold and silver, as the US Constitution stipulates. Money is printed by states, not banks, and corresponds to goods and assets. An unstable economy occurs when money supply exceeds assets due to interest-bearing loans from the Federal Reserve. This causes debt, inflation, and currency devaluation. A stable economy has minimal debt, money supply matching assets, and commodity-backed currency without interest. President Kennedy tried to regain money printing power from banks via silver certificates but was unsuccessful. Unchecked money printing causes inflation and risks fiat currency collapse dominated by banks through credit systems.

Westchester Guardian October 28, 2010 EditionMauricio GodoyThis document is a newspaper from Westchester County, New York dated October 28, 2010. It contains articles on local politics, education, development projects, and reviews. The main article discusses ongoing political and fiscal issues in Yonkers, criticizing Mayor Phil Amicone for multiple failed projects and questionable use of funds. It alleges legal and financial problems with the mayor's redevelopment plans and suggests the city council should not approve the mayor's latest $90 million budget request.

Ozymandias 2013 AEI 1.1
Ozymandias 2013 AEI 1.17DS AssociatesThis document discusses trends indicating that renting rather than owning a home is becoming the new normal in the United States. It notes that the number of renters has increased by over 3 million since 2010 while the number of homeowners has decreased by 2.8 million. It analyzes factors contributing to this shift such as high student loan debt burdening young adults and preventing them from purchasing homes. The document also examines challenges facing the real estate industry from this trend and proposes some radical solutions for realtor associations to empower and engage members as activists to influence policy and public opinion.
Crime
CrimeEric Strayer1. The document discusses various types of crime in the US, including violent crime, property crime, white collar crime, cybercrime, and organized crime. It also examines theories for why crime occurs such as differential association theory and structural strain theory.
2. The document analyzes crime statistics over time, finding that while crime rates were higher in the 1960s and 1970s, rates of violent crime, homicide, and property crime have been declining since the early 1990s. Incarceration rates in the US, however, are the highest in the world.
3. The document discusses how crime is committed across classes but that data often only reflects crime among middle and lower classes. It suggests that crimes of the
Commanding Heights in Ohio
Commanding Heights in OhioRoger ValdezThis document outlines a strategy to advocate for pro-housing policies and shift the narrative around housing issues. It recommends:
1) Responding to claims about housing crises with data to show issues may not be as severe as claimed and establish a research center to provide accurate data.
2) Sharing proposals to increase affordable housing supply through market-based solutions like rent subsidies rather than building more subsidized units.
3) Conducting research to understand why people believe housing should be a right and not a commodity in order to change minds and support policies enabling more abundant market-rate housing.
The overall goal is to "take back the commanding heights" of the housing debate by providing counterarguments and market

Mike Cowburn: Account Director, Ideal Networkswired_sussexIKEA conducted a pilot program using location-based technology in one of its large UK stores to track customer flow, monitor queues, see live heat maps of busy areas, and replace manual analytics processes. The program also allowed customers to use an app for navigation to specific items or locations within the store based on their current position and a shopping list. Ideal Networks provided the underlying wireless infrastructure needed to integrate with IKEA's app and enable these use cases around analytics and navigation for both employees and customers.

Eva Pascoe: Head of Retail Futures, The Retail Practicewired_sussexThis document discusses how Internet of Things (IoT) technologies like beacons and sensors can be used to gather real-time data on foot traffic and store vacancies to help revitalize struggling high streets. Examples are given of councils using WiFi counters and beacons to monitor footfall and relay targeted retail offers. Relocating health services to high streets is also proposed to replace disappearing shops and banks. The future potential of crowd-sourced data and apps to manage public spaces efficiently is envisioned.

Simon Liss: Founding Partner- Strategy & Innovation, Omnifi Ltd.wired_sussexThe document discusses how Internet of Things (IoT) innovation is transforming future retail experiences in three ways: inside the box, around the box, and outside the box. Inside the box refers to more efficient and engaging physical retail spaces using IoT and IoP technologies. Around the box means integrating the physical store into a multi-channel retail experience. Outside the box covers new physical retail concepts that extend beyond traditional stores. The role of physical stores is changing as they become connected to other channels through IoT-enabled technologies.

The project involves designing and evaluating experiences on 4 connected screens in London Borough of Waltham Forest. A cross-disciplinary team from UCL and Nottingham University will take an iterative and longitudinal approach to understand how screens can be used to engage communities and address social, spatial, technical and interaction issues. The goal is for screens to become embedded into the fabric of urban life and for local communities, especially children, to feel ownership over the experiences.

While over 200,000 retailers now accept Bitcoin, issues with loss of confidence in currency exchanges remain. A proposed solution is a decentralized currency exchange that allows for direct, trustless transactions between parties using blockchain technology to securely confirm exchanges without the possibility of fraud. This new exchange called MetaLair aims to be the first to enable direct and trustless exchange of different cryptocurrencies based on years of research by experts in security and financial systems.

HIRE A HACKER TO RECOVER SCAMMED CRYPTO// CRANIX ETHICAL SOLUTIONS HAVEN
HIRE A HACKER TO RECOVER SCAMMED CRYPTO// CRANIX ETHICAL SOLUTIONS HAVENduranolivia584One night, deep within one of those YouTube rabbit holes-you know, the ones where you progress from video to video until you already can't remember what you were searching for-well, I found myself stuck in crypto horror stories. I have watched people share how they lost access to their Bitcoin wallets, be it through hacks, forgotten passwords, glitches in software, or mislaid seed phrases. Some of the stupid mistakes made me laugh; others were devastating losses. At no point did I think I would be the next story. Literally the next morning, I tried to get to my wallet like usual, but found myself shut out. First, I assumed it was some sort of minor typo, but after multiple attempts-anything I could possibly do with the password-I realized that something had gone very wrong. $400,000 in Bitcoin was inside that wallet. I tried not to panic. Instead, I went back over my steps, checked my saved credentials, even restarted my device. Nothing worked. The laughter from last night's videos felt like a cruel joke now. This wasn't funny anymore. It was then that I remembered: One of the videos on YouTube spoke about Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven. It was some dude who lost his crypto in pretty similar circumstances. He swore on their expertise; I was out of options and reached out to them. From the very moment I contacted them, their staff was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable indeed. I told them my case, and then they just went ahead and introduced me to the plan. They reassured me that they have dealt with cases similar to this-and that I wasn't doomed as I felt. Over the course of a few days, they worked on meticulously analyzing all security layers around my wallet, checking for probable failure points, and reconstructing lost credentials with accuracy and expertise. Then came the call that changed everything: “Your funds are safe. You’re back in.” I can’t even put into words the relief I felt at that moment. Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven didn’t just restore my wallet—they restored my sanity. I walked away from this experience with two important lessons:
1. Never, ever neglect a wallet backup.
2. If disaster strikes, Cranix Ethical Solutions Haven is the only name you need to remember.
If you're reading this and thinking, "That would never happen to me," I used to think the same thing.Untilitdid.

Gender board diversity and firm performance
Gender board diversity and firm performanceGRAPEWe study the effects of gender board diversity on firm performance. We use novel and rich firm-level data covering over seven million private and public firms spanning the years 1995-2020 in Europe. We augment a standard TFP estimation with a shift-share instrument for gender board diversity. We find that increasing the share of women in the boardroom is conducive to better economic performance. The results prove robust in a variety of subsamples, and to a variety of sensitivity analyses. This outcome is driven primarily by firms from the service sector. The positive impact was stronger during the more recent years of our sample that is a period with relatively more board diversity.

I was recently at the AMC Georgetown Theater, standing in line for popcorn, when I struck up a conversation with a girl sitting next to me. We started talking about investments, and I shared my experience of being scammed. I had invested $157,000 into a cryptocurrency platform that seemed promising at first. The platform looked legitimate, and after doing my research, I felt confident about the decision. But after a few months, things started to unravel. Withdrawals were delayed, and the responses from the platform grew increasingly vague. Eventually, the platform disappeared completely, taking my entire investment with it. The shock and disbelief I felt were overwhelming. The money was gone, and I was left not only financially drained but emotionally exhausted. I couldn't believe how quickly everything had fallen apart, despite doing what I thought was thorough research. As I explained my situation to the girl at the theater, she seemed genuinely concerned and shared that she had been in a similar situation. She, too, had been scammed in the past, but she was able to recover her lost funds with the help of a company called DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY. She immediately recommended them to me, saying that they had the expertise to handle cases like mine. At that moment, I was desperate and open to trying anything, so I decided to reach out to them. From the first contact, it was clear I had made the right decision. The team at DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY was professional, empathetic, and knowledgeable about handling cases like mine. They took the time to walk me through the entire recovery process and assured me that they had the tools and experience to help me get my money back. Their clear communication and confidence gave me hope that recovery was possible. Thanks to their diligent efforts, DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY was able to recover the full $157,000 I had lost. The process took a few weeks, but the feeling of relief when I saw my funds returned was indescribable. I felt a massive weight lifted off my shoulders. I’m incredibly grateful for their support and expertise, and I’ll always be thankful for the chance encounter that led me to them.

How to Perform a Cost-Benefit Analysis A Simple Step-by-Step Guide.pptxTfin CareerA cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is essential for anyone making business decisions, managing projects, or creating policies. It helps you evaluate how much something will cost versus the benefits you expect to gain so you can make smarter, more informed choices.
This guide will show you how to quickly conduct a cost-benefit analysis, considering an investment, a new project, or a policy change.
What is a Cost-Benefit Analysis?
A cost-benefit analysis compares a decision's costs with its benefits to determine whether the benefits are worth the costs. This process is helpful when resources are limited, and you want to make sure you are making the best decision for the future.
Example: Imagine your company is thinking about buying new software. A cost-benefit analysis would compare the price of the software to the benefits, like more productivity, lower labor costs, or better customer service. If the benefits are higher than the costs, the investment makes sense.
Step 1: Identify and List All Costs
Sometime recently, you can calculate the benefits, you are required to list all the costs included. These are coordinated or backhanded, short-term or long-term. Begin by composing down each conceivable cost.
Direct Costs: These are easy to identify because they're directly tied to the project, such as buying equipment or paying for materials.
Indirect Costs: These are secondary expenses, like administrative costs or the time needed for training.
Recurring Costs: These are ongoing costs, like maintenance or subscription fees.
Opportunity Costs: Consider what you're missing out on by choosing this option instead of another.
Example: In the software case, direct costs include the price of the software and the cost of installation and training. Indirect costs could be employees' time learning how to use the new software.
Step 2: Identify and List All Benefits
Now that you've listed all the costs, you must consider the benefits. These can be tangible (easy to measure) or intangible (more challenging but still meaningful).
Tangible Benefits: These are measurable in financial terms, like increased revenue or cost savings.
Intangible Benefits: These might be improved employee morale or customer satisfaction.
Example: The computer program might bring significant benefits, like higher productivity or diminished labor costs. Intangible benefits include ways to improve group resolve or progress client advantage.
Step 3: Quantify Costs and Benefits
Once you've identified the costs and benefits, the next step is to assign a dollar amount to each one. Some benefits, especially intangibles, may be hard to quantify, but giving them a realistic value is essential. Base your estimates on reliable data, like industry standards or expert advice.
Example: If the software costs $10,000 to purchase and $1,000 per year for maintenance, and it's expected to save $15,000 annually in labor costs, the return on investment is easily visible.
