Similar to the internet in the 2000s, the technological revolution of NFTs was accompanied by an unprecedented speculative bubble. In 2021-2022, speculation was running rampant, with some NFTs selling for millions of dollars. They were making headlines in the media, and it's highly likely that you first heard about them during that time.While we can appreciate this sudden visibility, it's important to move away from certain clichés. No, NFTs are not just million-dollar JPEG images... And no, they are not limited to the art world either. Speculation is inherent in the early stages of any new technology, so we shouldn't blame this controversial image. Instead, we should seek to understand.And for those of you reading these lines, understand this: NFTs are a technology that will disrupt our daily lives, just like the internet does today.For the first time in history, NFTs allow us to create digital scarcity. Imagine that! It's a true paradigm shift, much like the birth of social networks two decades ago.And we're only at the beginning...By reading this book, you too will be part of this incredible revolution.TABLE OF CONTENTS:1. - REAL ESTATE2. - MUSIC3. - SUPPLY CHAIN4. - SOCIAL MEDIA5. - DOMAIN NAMES6. - BOOKS7. - EMAILS8. - HEALTH9. - DIPLOMAS AND CVs10. - TICKETS11. - THE VOTE12. - GAMING13. - DIGITAL ART14.¿ - INSURANCE15. - DONATIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS16. - POLITICS17.¿ - WORLD OF SPORTS18. - PRECIOUS METALS19. - ADMINISTRATION20. - PHOTOGRAPHY21. - MARKETING22. - PORNOGRAPHY23. - LOYALTY PROGRAMS24. - CINEMA25. ¿ - JUSTICE26. - CARS27. - FASHION28.¿ - LUXURY WATCHES29. - DIGITAL IDENTITY30. - WINE31. - GOVERNANCE (DAO)32. - SCIENCE33. - E-COMMERCE34. - MUSEUMS AND EXHIBITIONS35. - FINANCE36. - METAVERSE37. - COLLECTIBLE CARDS38. - ECOLOGY39. - MEDIA40.¿ - TOURISM41.¿ - PERSONAL DATA42. - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY43.¿ - NOTARIES44. - ONLINE REVIEWS45. - EDUCATION46. - POLLS AND PETITIONS47. - GAMBLING48. - SOULBOUND TOKENS49. - AI AND DEEPFAKE50.¿ - SCAMS AND FRAUDS

This illustrated textbook was originally developed for use in the Evidence 4 Faith Marine Biology program, a hands-on introduction to the field of Marine Biology. The book covers foundational concepts such as marine ecology, marine biochemistry, and marine zoology. The book also includes chapters on animals and plants typically found in the regions of the Florida Keys and the Bahamas (pictures included). The book is written for ages 14 and up. Personal stories from the author can be found between learning sections to help students remember concepts and give concrete applications of what to do (and sometimes what not to do!).

"Gene Stratton-Porter was a farm girl who fell in love with birds, from the chickens whose eggs she collected to the hawks that preyed on them. When she grew up, Gene wanted nothing more than to share her love of birds with the world. She wrote stories about birds, but when a magazine wanted to publish them next to awkward photos of stuffed birds, she knew she had to take matters into her own hands. Teaching herself photography, Gene began to take photos of birds in the wild. Her knowledge of birds and how to approach them allowed her to get so close you could count the feathers of the birds in her photos. Her work was unlike anything Americans had ever seen before-she captured the true lives of animals in their natural habitat. A pioneering wildlife photographer and one of the most popular authors of the early 20th century, this bird girl showed the world the beauty of nature and why it was worth preserving"--

Long before she became known as the Cactus Queen, Minerva Hamilton Hoyt found solace in the unexpected beauty of the Mojave Desert in California. She loved the jackrabbits and coyotes, the prickly cacti, and especially the weird, spiky Joshua trees. However, in the 1920s, hardly anyone else felt the same way. The desert was being thoughtlessly destroyed by anyone and everyone. Minerva knew she needed to bring attention to the problem. With the help of her gardening club, taxidermists, and friends, she took the desert east and put its plants and animals on display. The displays were a hit, but Minerva needed to do much more: she wanted to have the desert recognized as a national park. Although she met with President Franklin D. Roosevelt and won him over, Minerva still had to persuade politicians, scientists, teachers, and others to support her cause. And, it worked! Minerva's efforts led to what came to be known as Joshua Tree National Park in California, and saved hundreds of thousands of plants and animals. Now, the millions of people who visit each year have learned to love the desert, just as Minerva did.

“Danmark, hvad har jeg dig gjort, at bort du så grumt mig støder? Hvad kan dog gå mere galt?”Efter 20 frugtbare år på øen Hven i Øresund, hvor mange af de observationer, den moderne astronomihviler på, blev nedfældet, forlod Danmarks betydeligste astronom og videnskabsmand, Tycho Brahe, i 1599 sit fædreland for at finde arbejdsro under sydligere himmelstrøg. Men kunne den arrogante og temperamentsfulde danske videnskabsmand igen finde ro til at fortsætte sine banebrydende beregninger af himmelrummet?Anders Worm fortæller den fascinerende historie om en kontroversiel, genial, insisterende og hårdt arbejdende videnskabsmand, fra Uranienborg (også kendt som Uraniborg) på Hven til sit endeligt i Prag.Tycho Brahe leverede et betydeligt bidrag til den internationale astronomi og står i dag som en af Danmarks allerstørste videnskabsfolk. Men hanslivshistorie viser, at resultaterne også kom medpersonlige omkostninger.

In this book, I respond to the need for explanations of UAPs/UFOs, as presented by the Report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. I work within the Framework of the Pentagon's statement that UAPs are real objects with advanced intelligently controlled technologies, which are not ours (US). I present explanations of the Physics of UFOs/UAPs and how they work. I analyze and explain UAPs' flight characteristics. I present explanations for the observables listed by the National Intelligence Director's Report. I address and refute the hypothesis that UAPs are advanced hypersonic drones from Russia or China. I review and address the National Security as well as air safety concerns. I present case evidence and historical data supporting the hypothesis that some UFOs/UAPs are advanced technologies that do not seem to originate from Earth. It is evidence that may be conducive to the discovery, the realization that we are not alone in the Universe. This book is also intended to be used for additional reading in Astronomy and Physics classes.
