In addition to bringing up several points to consider, the authors also direct readers to a number of helpful resources and they guide readers to seek out individualized information from local sources, such as the local health department, fire department, and more.
I found the chapters on hiring the staff and getting set up with suppliers to be the most helpful. Sometimes when you are new to an industry it can be hard to know where to start. Thanks to "How to Create a Financially Successful Bakery" I now know what needs to get done.
The accompanying CD-ROM is also a great resource. On it are a number of sample business plans and related Microsoft Word documents that anyone can alter and use for their own start up business.
While the book does offer great insight into the industry, it is by no means an in-depth, step-by-step guide to owning your own bakery.
From start to finish this book will help to solidify your view of opening a bakery and the work that it will require. The authors do not sugar coat the process of opening and running a bakery. They give honest straightforward information to help you be as successful as possible.
This book is comprehensive look at the bakery business. Starting with the financial and real estate technicalities. Then moving into more technical aspect of running a bakery business. The section on customers was especially interesting. Many people want to start a new bakery and are unprepared to identify whom their customers are; this book is excellent in helping to narrow down your customer base. The authors also talk about ways of getting new customers in your doors.
Beyond marketing "How to open a financially successful Bakery" goes into public relations and even menu planning to help make your newly opened Bakery an absolute success. This is a great overview of all the areas of concern when opening a new bakery. The authors have gone to great lengths to provide the highest standard of information.
To make this book even better, it comes with a CD that contains over 30 forms for the operations of your new financially successful bakery. There are forms on general management issues, food safety issues, and even employee training. "How to open a financially successful bakery" is a great starter book for anyone considering opening their own bakery business.
It lays out the basics of writing a successful business plan and how to deal with both the employees and the customers. Also, it goes into detail on how what equipment a bakery needs and marketing strategies as well as how to make the environment safe and stand up the health inspections.
Though the CD-ROM has many forms and other information that can be used, the book lacks details that are readily understandable on pricing and on how to use some of the forms. The section on pricing is easy for someone who has been in business to understand but for the newcomer, it may be slightly confusing. This is the problem with the forms also.
Overall, the book would be very beneficial to someone who is looking into starting a bakery. There is enough information in the areas which seem to be lacking to get a person started in the business. The areas lacking mean there will be slightly more trial and error when opening the business.

I love this concept of painting models with black makeup and then shooting them against a black back drop. Brilliantly creative, and it works wonders as the resulting images are just stunning examples of fashion photography - particularly the white costume, which I doubt could have been photographed in a better situation.
The all-black faces, which cover even the lips, look really attractive too.
Implications - Magazines have to come up with unique ways of drawing attention to their hard copies in today's digital age. By creating an editorial that could easily be controversial, the magazine draws press and media attention to themselves. It is then when consumers rush to purchase or read the magazine to see what the fuss it about.

I loved shopping at Asheville Mattress Outfitters. They have a great selection of Sealy and Restonic mattresses at prices that were very competitive with other sleep shops. The owner is not pushy at all and will let you take your time choosing the right mattress. They also offer free delivery. The box springs was free with the mattress (I'm not sure if they offer that all the time, but you could ask.) I would shop there again!

What Is The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis?
Does Igor Ledochowski's The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis work? Is it a quality covert hypnosis blueprint program by a knowledgeable author? How does it work? Here is a quick summary:
Good Points:
- Articulate and exhaustive program in multiple digital formats instantly available
- Leading expert author with proven credentials and extensive background
- Effective and step by step blueprint
- Articulate yet easy to understand prose, videos and sheets
- 60 day money back guarantee
Bad Points:
- Complete but overwhelming information. It takes time to digest it
- Quite expensive for a digital program
- Not a fool proof system – hypnosis has its own limitations
Who is the author? "The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis" is the creation of Igor Ledochowski, a leading figure in the world of hypnosis like Paul McKenna and Derren Brown. He became involved in hypnosis while attending Exeter University to become a lawyer and stumbled across the works of Milton Erickson, the forefather of modern hypnosis.
By applying the principles outlined by Erickson, he found that he could achieve twice as much results in half the time and became hooked in this discipline both for personal and social purposes. He became acquainted with Erickson's disciples too, learning all the ropes of hypnosis but also discovering ineffective or wrong methods.
Most importantly, not only did Igor Ledochowski took over Milton Erickson's relay, he actually strove to improve the effectiveness of his master's principles in order to upgrade Erickson's conversational hypnosis method from semi-covert to fully covert hypnosis, a much sought after skill and the nirvana of the hypnosis world. So Much so for the author.

Covert Conversational Hypnosis - What Are The Benefits?
Igor Ledochowski
Unlike Erickson, Ledochowski developed a step by step method that can be applied not just for therapeutical reasons where the patient is aware of the hypnotist exerting his power from the start, but more intriguingly in all social situations if and when required, without people realizing they are actually being hypnotized, thus influencing and persuading them in every day situations.
After many years of studies and trial and error, he found the most effective stealthy ways to sneak into people's mind without them detecting anything wrong as the conversation unravels. It could actually be called a persuasiveness and assertiveness method rather than simply an hypnosis "magical hat trick" method as conjured up in the typical cartoonesque image of the "wizard hypnotist" coercing his hapless victims with his magnetic stare into some dangerous deeds for his own gain, like robbing a bank.
Indeed, the author mentions the famous case of an Italian hypnotist robber who struck several times without arm to anyone except for the stolen money, just getting his prize by instantly persuading the cashier to hand it over to him. However, we found that Ledochowski's conversational hypnosis method was not developed with unethical, illegal or immoral intentions in mind, but simply to improve one's life in all daily circumstances with no harm to anyone by means of assertion and persuasiveness, even improving relations between two opposing or hostile parties.
The conversational hypnosis blueprint by Ledochowski is more about influencing people rather then manipulating them. It's about steering people's will to your side and agreeably so, rather than dominating them. It tells you all the nuances required to negotiate and compel people to do something while commanding respect and admiration as an authority person, rather than coercing, tricking or intimidating.
In short, it is about being authoritative, not authoritarian, and commanding attention and respect in all situations and circumstances. We think this program could also be used by shy or introvert people to learn how to stand their ground to their own advantage or to prevent others taking advantage of them without creating conflict or contrasts, but actually persuading people onto your side.
We liked this assertiveness core element of the method and the meticulous studying, observation and trial and error spent by the author to hone and refine all the subtle skills required to become a perfect persuader, aka an effective conversational hypnotist.
We think the range of such skills encompasses a wider area than mere day to day solutions for one's own advantage in simple social situations, because they could also be used as diplomatic tools wherever conflict or danger is not too far off sight. Below we compiled a list of just few situations that we found these skills come in handy.

The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis – Where Can It Be Applied?
How Persuasiveness And Authority Effect Your Life
Here are few typical situations where covert hypnosis can be useful
- Asking the children to tidy up their room or wash the dishes without them complaining or resisting
- Persuading your partner to watch a movie rather than another one and being accommodating about it
- Have your ideas and proposals accepted at the board meeting with admiration and respect
- Swaying an attractive prospect partner to you with persuasiveness, making yourself attractive to her/him in return
- Bargaining the price down, with the seller being happy about it
- Focusing your attention to maximize results, achieving more in less time
- Attracting attention, admiration in social situations and gatherings like parties or ceremonies
- Generally being charismatic and the alpha guy or gal in any situation with the approval, admiration and respect of people
These are just few of the circumstances that can benefit from mastering this conversational hypnosis blueprint. We found the techniques described in the program to be very subtle and intriguing and that the access doors to people's minds were there all the time but made invisible by the traditional, superficial way in which we interact, missing key elements of body language, facial expression and attention span.
For example, one such technique is the " matching and mirroring", adjusting your speech and body language to that of the person you try to persuade, but without going overboard. It needs to be subtle so the person feels comfortable and accommodating, not antagonistic, for best results. Exaggerating mimic can have the opposite effect, making the person think you are just being led and he/she is the dominant one.
Then there are insights to the working of your own mind to be aware of, like the " law of reverse effect". This consists of letting you conscious effort have the better hand on the flow of your subconscious or imaginative state, thwarting results and outcomes.
This means being excessively preoccupied with performing a task can interfere with your natural ability to perform it effectively without any effort. This is the typical case of the insomniac who never gets to sleep the harder he tries, whereas if he let the sleep just fall over him naturally and subconsciously, he would be fast asleep in no time at all.
The are many laws and techniques described in the blueprint, but one that stands out is the " Hypnotic Rapport". We found this to be a keystone and the foundation of just about any liaison, let alone conversational hypnosis.
As the name implies, it consists of the ability of engaging the person in front of you, creating a " connection" as fast and effectively as possible. The hypnotic rapport goes hand in hand with "matching and mirroring" , the former being the foundation, the latter its practical application.
We found The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis is an NLP or Neuro Linguistic Programming method of high quality that leaves nothing to chance. The theory foundation, the knowledge and practical blueprint for learners are well designed, structured and explained.
It uses a scaled down and simplified version of the Milton Model to quickly learn the ropes and skills of conversational hypnosis without wasting time. Some Information found in the program can also be found here and there online, but it is fragmented and incomplete and without real-life step by step action plan.

Suppose you had the ability to talk to people in such a way as that they'd do almost anything you wanted them to do. What ...
What Makes The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis Different from Other Programs?
Ledochowski's program is unique in that it is not just extensive and thorough, but also practical and hands on. It comes in download digital formats as follows:

The teaching is structured into 12 different sections, below a brief summary:
- Section 1 - How you can use conversational hypnosis to make others do what you want
- Section 2 - How to connect with people in order to read their mind
- Section 3 - How to induce an hypnotic trance in people's mind
- Section 4 – How to get people to follow your suggestions and proposal
- Section 5 – How to change another person's behavior and make her/him follow instructions
- Section 6 - Language methods that make suggestions slip through the minds subconsciously
- Section 7 – How to control people's actions by getting their attention with storytelling
- Section 8 - How to implement covert hypnosis in any conversation

The Good And The Bad Of Ledochowski's Conversational Hypnosis
This educational product gave us an overall very good impression right from the start, with tons of information, a good layout and format and knowledge taken over from Milton Erickson and further honed and refined, plus an impressive list of testimonials.
This impression was later confirmed by the effectiveness of the techniques involved in everyday situations. They do not come easy, as they require dedication and perseverance, but we found them to work in many typical situations, improving assertiveness and persuasiveness on others.
We found some techniques like "matching and mirroring" easier than others to get hold of and implement, giving quickly an advantage in typical circumstances where liaising or bargaining are required.
Other skills like hypnotic story telling to get one' attention, piercing through their mind to steer them in your direction, are a bit more difficult to learn, especially if you are not a natural speaker, or are shy or introvert.
However, even these "advanced skills" are still worth a try, improving overall assertiveness and possible lagging aspects of your personality like lack of social confidence and charisma, even if you cannot achieve fully covert hypnosis quite yet. Just keep practicing.
Below is a list of what we likes and disliked of this program.
What We Liked:
- Authority Leading Author – Igor Ledochowski is a world famous professional who turned the works of Milton Erickson from semi-covert hypnosis to fully covert, conversational hypnosis and made it accessible to a wider audience in a practical package.
- Effective Method – The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis is a well structured, organized and articulate blueprint in multi digital formats that leaves nothing to guessing. It requires time and dedication to go through it, but good results are very much achievable by anyone willing to put in some effort.
- Improves Your Overall Confidence – Not just specifically covert hypnosis and the ability to steer others to do what you want them to do. It also teaches you how to be more charismatic and persuasive along the way.
- The "Cheat Sheets" part of the program offers a practical, hands down boost for faster results. You can then go through the PDF transcripts or MP3 lessons later to get a deeper understanding of the nuts and bolts, the techniques involved and why they work.
- It Is Instantly Available Upon Purchase – No deliveries required, you can get it only through a highly secure payment processor (Card or PayPal)
- It Has a 60 day Money Back Guarantee - Just in case.
What We Did Not Like:
- There Is a Ton Of Information - This is good, but it can lead to "paralysis by analysis". Do not go through the whole theory, audio and transcript before getting your hands down. Use the "Cheat Sheets" along the way for quicker results.
- It Is Not Cheap - Sure, the information is top notch, but $197 for a digital product, however articulate and packed with knowledge, is a bit pricey. This is a price fitter for standard, physical CDs packages than digital products that have no overhead costs. However, it is instantly available directly into you PC with no deliveries issues to deal with, so it is still very convenient.
The Bottom Line – The Power Of Conversational Hypnosis is a complete and effective blueprint designed to achieve the holy grail of hypnosis, that is fully covert, conversational hypnosis, to be used in all daily situations and circumstances in order to steer other people's minds and will to your side.
It does so with a clear step by step blueprint teaching you all the techniques to become not just proficient in covert hypnosis, but also more confident, persuasive, assertive and charismatic in all possible situations. Therefore, we think it is a program suitable not just for pure covert, conversational hypnosis, but also for anyone who wants to improve their social skills and become more successful in all social liaisons.

Occupy Wall Street is Dead. Long live Occupy Wall Street!
In Britain, when the Queen passes away, the cry goes out: The Queen is Dead! Long Live the Queen! In that spirit, Occupy is not a place. It can not be killed, unless we all sit back down. As Bill Moyers urged us:
"I don't think Occupy Wall Street will have the influence they want unless they do what the tea party did and take over the nominating process. Unless they do, they will never have the satisfaction that they want and that the civil rights movement, say, had back in the 1950s and '60s."
Force won't end Occupy Wall Street: only equity will.
Last night, police forcibly cleared Zucotti Park, ending—for now—a nearly two-month occupation in service of the greater good, bringing awareness to unprecedented corporate greed and corruption and inequity in these United States of America that we love so dearly.
From the NY Times, which has had this on the front page since last night (don't lump them in with complaints about media censorship, please):
Overnight, hundreds of New York City police officers cleared Zuccotti Park of the Occupy Wall Street protesters and arrested dozens of people, forcing the two-month-old protest that had spawned a movement into a new and uncertain phase. As of 11 a.m., the protesters were trying to retake the park, and had also occupied a lot owned by Trinity Church a mile north, at Canal Street.

John Galliano, Alleged Anti-Semitic Fashion Designer, Checking into Arizona Rehab Center, According to USA Today's Rumor Department
At the same facility Tiger Woods was "rumored" to have attended when he was treated for his poon addiction in late 2009.
As you may have heard, Galliano was canned by fashion house Christian Dior for making anti-semetic statements (the guy apparently loves Hitler. Jews... not so much) while apparently drunk at a cafe in Paris.
Today, USA Today reports that, at the urging of his high-profile pals -- including models Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss -- Galliano is "rumored" to be going to rehab.
USA Today's rumor department goes further to say that he will do so at The Meadows, a facility in Wickenburg that's treated several celebrity junkies in recent years.

In December 2009, the rumor mill churned out reports that Tiger Woods was heading to The Meadows to treat his addictions to sex and various prescription drugs. The rumor mill, as is often the case, turned out to be wrong -- Woods attended a rehab center in Mississippi.
As for Galliano coming to the Grand Canyon State for rehab: we'll believe it when we see it.

I like it a lot.
| JasonStlyish chapter 17 . 11/27/2013
Wow. the way you wrote the love making scene was poetic. As for this whole story, shipper endorsed(at least from my point of view). I could feel the emotional intensity of each primary moment. but I hope the ending isn't hurt/comfort, the way you have it so far...
| ThereIsAnother chapter 17 . 10/26/2013
First things first, this story deserves way more attention and you could've definitely went with a T rating.
The way you wrote their friendship was amazing and even though I had a hard time with Chuck and Sarah not seeing each other for 4 years, it all worked out in the end.
I really have to say of all the "first times" written on this site with Chuck and Sarah, yours ranks at the very top. Very honorable and very classy in the way you wrote it.
| Guest chapter 17 . 9/29/2013
God I love this story... even more the second time. To me, a great story is one that I can first of all re-read but more importantly; experience all of the feels with the same intensity. Oh and yeah, not proud to admit it, but I only figured out why Sarah was called 'Zye. Gosh I'm blonde :(
This story... these characters. GEH! Definitely one of my favourite stories in the Chuck fandom. I don't normally like teen stories but I like how this one progresses. More importantly, it was last updated 2 months ago... It could still totally be updated. *Fingers crossed* But if not, I think its a good enough place to leave it... assume that they get through the intersect ordeal together and then live happy lives ]
| Guest chapter 10 . 8/30/2013
Dude! I love it! Oh so muc was wondering how it was gonna play out seeing that the story is M and I find that that sort of stuff happening to teenagers is awkward. But yeah! Super excited for this story! I have exam tomorrow worth 20% and havent really studied but I cant stop reading this goddamn story! I just love it so much!

Nanotechnology in the workplace
New technology, whether it is a novel cancer treatment or an innovative approach to farming, almost always comes with risk. Those risks are often first - and most severely - felt by industry workers, and nanotechnology is no different. Today, workers around the world are exposed to nanoparticles on a daily basis. There is much speculation, yet so far, little definitive information about how exposure affects workers. A report released by the International Council on Nanotechnology in November 2006 ("A Survey of Current Practices in the Nanotechnology Workplace" - pdf download, 2.2 MB), offers a clear picture of the situation. "The properties for which novel nanoscale materials are designed may generate new risks to workers, consumers, the public, and the environment. While some of these risks can be anticipated from experiences with other synthetic chemicals and with existing knowledge of ambient and manufactured fine particles, novel risks associated with new properties cannot easily be anticipated based on existing data." Questions, such as how to measure toxicity and how to monitor and control exposure, remain unanswered.

The "king of irony" award of the week goes to Chicago GM Dale Tallon, who had this to say about talented center Tyler Arnason, whom he dealt to Ottawa for (dare we say it?) underachieving minor-leaguer Brandon Bochenski.
"Arnie has all kinds of ability, and he's underachieved," Tallon told reporters in Chicago after the deal. "Arnie's got a chance to be a star, but it's been a frustrating last couple of years with him, to watch the ability he has and the inconsistent play he's shown and realize he can do so much.''
This from a GM who appears to be a magnet for the overpaid and underachieving. Arnason, for the record, notched an assist in his first game with the Senators, a victory over Atlanta. The Blackhawks, meanwhile, have lost five of six and eight of their last 10. -- S.B.
Within hours of the trade deadline, Edmonton GM Kevin Lowe was being feted as a minor genius for having landed netminder Dwayne Roloson from Minnesota and talented forward Sergei Samsonov from Boston. There was talk of a Stanley Cup run.
Oops. Since then, the Oilers have dropped three straight games, including Sunday's heartbreaking 4-3 loss to Roloson's former mates in Minnesota. Roloson has been between the pipes for all three losses, and while he hasn't had much in the way of defensive help, he hasn't been overwhelming. He gave up five goals on 31 shots, including three in the third period of a 5-2 loss to San Jose in his first start with Edmonton. Then, against Columbus on Saturday, Roloson got tangled up with a teammate while trying to clear the puck in overtime and allowed a bad-angle goal to get past him on the same play to close out a 4-3 loss. The losses have suddenly dropped the Oilers out of a playoff position as they began the week tied with Anaheim for eighth place. The Ducks have two games in hand on the Oilers. -- S.B.

Ford just made a big commitment to Apple CarPlay. The company announced Monday that all 2017 models equipped with its SYNC 3 infotainment system will come with the ability to run Apple's phone-to-car interface.
With CarPlay enabled, anyone running an iPhone 5 or later can connect their phone to their vehicle dashboard for displaying directions, using phone functions, listening to music, and accessing Siri. When we looked at CarPlay for iOS 9.3 in April, we especially liked the overhauled version of Apple Music that includes the New and For You sections, as well as Maps' Nearby feature.

Everyone wondering what exactly is going on with Apple's rumored car project will rejoice at the latest development: Apple is reportedly bringing back legendary hardware engineering head Bob Mansfield to oversee Project Titan and the development of an electric vehicle.
Mansfield started working for Steve Jobs in 1999 and was still employed by Apple but had stepped away after developing the MacBook Air, iMac, and iPad. Those successful products are plenty for one lifetime. Mansfield had transitioned from leading the hardware engineering department to overseeing special projects three years ago. One of those projects? The Apple Watch. Mansfield is now back in the swing of things after some time away, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Now that WWDC is over, the iPhone 7 rumors are getting even louder, since its expected unveiling in September is probably the next time we'll see Tim Cook on stage. Yes, that's still a good while from now. To help keep track of all the scuttlebutt, we're collecting every rumor we've heard so far—and every new one that crops up between now and the day Tim pulls the new iPhone out of his pocket. Then we'll assess whether each rumor seems legit or absurd, and we'd love to hear your thoughts too. Sound off in the comments.What's the latest?
The rumor: The iPhone 7 (and variations on that model) are reportedly hitting store shelves on Sept. 16, according to noted leaker Evan Blass. That's a little earlier than iPhones typically debut in September—last year, the iPhone 6s went on sale on Sept. 25. This would also push the iPhone event to earlier in September, or perhaps late August, if the standard two-week window between announcement and retail launch holds this year.

Skype is moving to the cloud from its previous peer-to-peer (P2P) approach, and the sky is falling! Ok, not quite. It's not a revolutionary move, given changes Microsoft already made in Skype's infrastructure in 2012 after its acquisition of the service from eBay, which in turn bought it from its founders. Rather, it's a technical and business change that lets Skype more rapidly roll out services that have a heavy reliance on back-end server elements, and which can be more reliable if handled centrally.
Centralization doesn't have to reduce a user's expectation of privacy. But because Skype has never provided substantive disclosure about how it encrypts data and exactly how much it gives governments of your private texts, voice calls, and video sessions, we have little information on which to make a judgment. Centralizing Skype makes it somewhat easier to tap conversations, although there's no good reason to change architecture entirely for that purpose.

The other day a co-worker needed to borrow a Mac, so I grabbed an older MacBook Air from storage. I decided to wipe out the laptop's flash storage and install a fresh version of OS X. I created a bootable USB flash drive installer, plugged it into the laptop, pressed the Option key as the machine booted, and then selected the USB drive as the boot disk.
I then ran Disk Utility to reformat the drive and then ran the installer to install OS X. It looked like things were moving along, until this appeared on the screen.

I'll begin this story the same way I began the phone call to my wife: "I'm OK, but…"
The "but" began on a Tuesday morning, after I started walking from the parking lot to the front door of my office building. I began feeling short of breath. No matter how deeply I inhaled, it felt like my lungs weren't filling up completely. At first, the feeling just seemed odd—nothing serious, just…weird.
By the time I climbed the flight of stairs to my floor, the feeling had grown worse. Along with the shortness of breath, I could feel my heart racing in my chest. Stopping to talk to a colleague on the way to my office, the mere act of speaking left me practically gasping for air. I cut the conversation short and continued to my office. Sitting still made me feel better, but not great.

IDC's smartwatch sales estimates for the second quarter of 2016 are in, and the news isn't great, particularly for Apple.
According to IDC's latest report, worldwide smartwatch sales slumped 32 percent in the second quarter of 2016, when compared to the same period last year. Much of the drop is due to an apparent decline in Apple Watch sales, according to IDC. The research firm estimates that Apple shipped 1.6 million smartwatches in the quarter, down from 3.6 million a year earlier.
Overall, smartwatch makers shipped a total of 3.5 million devices in the April-to-June quarter, IDC says. That compares to a total of 5.1 million in the year-ago quarter.

People are very concerned about the iPhone 7, which is in big trouble, by the way.
What? Oh, no, the iPhone 7 isn't out yet. It won't be out for months. But we "know" that it's in big trouble because of all the things we "know" about it, you see. And what we "know" is not good. (So much "knowing". So many sarcastic quotes.)
Writing for the Forbes contributor network and reform school for circus poodles gone bad, Ewan Spence describes the unbearable ennui that is the iPhone 7.
"Apple's Unimaginative Approach To Selling Its Boring New iPhone." (Tip o' the antlers to Philip Speicher and Shawn King.)

You probably have a general idea of which iPhone you have—iPhone 6, SE, 4s, and so on. But behind the marketing names, each iPhone configuration has its own model number. You normally won't need to know this number, but it could come in handy if you ever need to get more technical details about your device. Here's where you can find your iPhone's model number—and what that number means.Which number is which?
Apple uses two numbering schemes for its devices. The first, which we'll call the "A" number (hat tip to The iPhone Wiki for the name) is a five-digit alphanumeric string that starts with the letter A followed by four numbers.

Fortunately, the call was legitimate. Sadly, my number had been stolen even though the card was still in my possession. This was the third time in 2016 this has happened: once each with Chase (Visa), American Express, and Comenity (Visa).
What am I doing wrong? Probably nothing. But more tools may help me be even safer, and I'm considering changing how I shop online.I remember when it wasn't cool to pay online
I don't recall ever losing a physical credit card, and have never had one taken from me. Rather, every problem I've ever had has related to the number being stolen, sometimes for a card that I never even used online, say, after a brick-and-mortar retailer had a breach. Lately, it's all been related to online card breaches, though I can't connect the thefts to specific announcements.

Apple is gearing up for the summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro like everyone else in the world, and the company's contribution is a little something special: limited edition nylon Apple Watch bands that pay tribute to 14 competing nations.
Unfortunately, you can't buy them anywhere Apple Watches are sold, or even order them online. Apple is selling these special straps only in Brazil, in just one store: the VillageMall Apple Store in Barra de Tijuca. That means if you happen to be in Rio to catch the games and pick up one of these Olympic-themed bands, which will retail for $49, you could probably make a killing by reselling what is likely to be a sought-after collectible (or you could just wear it around and show your love of country or something).

The equally vaunted and ridiculed blue checkmarks on Twitter are no longer exclusive to elites or those with connections who have an "in" at Twitter. The company this week opened the verified account designation up to all users and put some rules in place for consideration. Many of Twitter's 310 million monthly active users don't qualify for verification, but the company is opening the secretive and invite-only process up to anyone.
Accounts of public interest, particularly those maintained by individuals and organizations in "music, acting, fashion, government, politics, religion, journalism, media, sports, business, and other key interest areas" are all up for consideration, according to Twitter. "We hope opening up this application process results in more people finding great, high-quality accounts to follow, and for these creators and influencers to connect with a broader audience," Tina Bhatnager, Twitter's vice president of user services, said in a prepared statement.
