Designed by Mike Elliott and Ethan Pasternack, this stand alone strategic space exploration/ship-to-ship combat game will primarily focus on the eclectic Star Trek ships as they explore space and battle their opponents. Featuring 24 precisely crafted 3D HeroClix starships and over 300 cards, this game is a must-have for any Star Trek fan. Star Trek: Fleet Captains is a game for 2-4 players as they assume the roles of Federation or Klingon commanders and compete for sector supremacy. So ready your phasers as we expand into the final frontier and beyond.
Product Description
Star Trek: Fleet Captains, designed for two or four players, is set in the "Prime Universe" of STAR TREK (as seen in the various TV series and movies up to Star Trek: Nemesis) and is more adversarial in nature when compared to Star Trek: Expeditions. Each player begins play with a fleet of ships and starts at opposite ends of an unexplored sector of space. This sector of space is represented by hexegonal cards (which are shuffled before play and placed face-down in a pre-determined pattern). As each ship progresses through the sector, you turn the tiles face up, revealing what is in that part of the sector (a Class-M planet, a Class-J Nebula, empty space, etc...). Hopefully you will discover and acquire resources while simultaneously denying them to your opponent(s). When conflict inevitably breaks out, you and your opponent(s) will battle it out for sector supremacy. Last fleet standing wins the sector for their respective faction. Each ship will be on a base with a dial and accompanied by a "Ship Card". The Card denotes three different statuses for each ship; normal operating, Yellow Alert, and Red Alert. Each status affects how your dial plays as well as how the game and your opponents interact with you. There is also a deck of cards involved that each player brings with their fleet, and these are used during gameplay to affect the outcome of battles, player interactions, etc... This game is also marketed as a non-collectible, non-blind product but will also be built upon the expandable board game model.

WASHINGTON/NEW YORK, Sept 1 (Reuters) - Securities regulators have taken the unprecedented step of asking high-frequency trading firms to hand over the details of their trading strategies, and in some cases, their secret computer codes.

The requests for proprietary code and algorithm parameters by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), a Wall Street brokerage regulator, are part of investigations into suspicious market activity, said Tom Gira, executive vice president of FINRA's market regulation unit.

"It's not a fishing expedition or educational exercise. It's because there's something that's troubling us in the marketplace," he said in an interview.

I found this an interesting interview about the history of money and debt.
 Check it out.

What is Debt? – An Interview with Economic Anthropologist David Graeber

David Graeber currently holds the position of Reader in Social Anthropology at Goldsmiths University London. Prior to this he was an associate professor of anthropology at Yale University. He is the author of ‘Debt: The First 5,000 Years’ which is available from Amazon.

Interview conducted by Philip Pilkington, a journalist and writer based in Dublin, Ireland.

Philip Pilkington: Let’s begin. Most economists claim that money was invented to replace the barter system. But you’ve found something quite different, am I correct?

David Graeber: Yes there’s a standard story we’re all taught, a ‘once upon a time’ — it’s a fairy tale.

Was removed from box strictly to verify that it works. I don't want to deal with selling broken shit cross country.

Here are the results. This is stock voltage.

Other than  that it is new in box.

Obviously I prefer bitcoin but also wanted to make the sale newbie friendly.

I know people need to "pay their bills" but why are we competing against all these legacies currencies. Let them destroy themselves in the war they are presently in.
We need to go a step further. Retail is not the answer. We need producers of product to accept bitcoin. Farmers, Manufacturers, skilled workmen etc...
We need to STRIKE THE ROOT!

I set up a sample spreadsheet of a insurance association pool. This will be a cooperative. If there isn't enough money in the pool to cover the highest possible single  claim you can't do that transaction...... unless you get sureties or yourself to make up the difference into an excess risk account. That basically means the more risk you put on the pool the more risk you also assume on yourself.


Naturally to start there is going to have to be a one time membership entrance fee to build the pool.

I have a single goal. To create certainy for the bitcoin sender that he/she won't get stiffed.

Anyway this is just random numbers entered . It is editable.

I just watched MTGOX make a sharp move up in several hours on a good volume of coins. All of a sudden a reversal  with microbids of coins. Someone as fucking with the exchange, I have no doubt.
The exchange would have to have jumped lower bids or people came in and bid lower with effectively chump change.

It seems pretty obvious that bitcoin has a lot of risk at the moment. The risk isn't because of bitcoin per se.
It's because bitcoin is cash like. I someone purchase something with bitcoin it is akin to sending the seller cash through the mail.
Most people don't do this because of the risk that is involved if the seller is perpetrating a fraud.

In the US, the legal remedies for interstate transactions are really shitty with cash. One reason being, there is no Federal Small Claims Court.
International transactions are even worse.

How the law treats bitcoin is a big unknown but as we can see even if it where legally treated as cash there would be issues.

Any ideas on how to remove the risk?
Private arbitration?
Escrow?

Here is a lot of debate on this site about what money.
Much of it is erroneous especially when it comes to the historical and legal aspects.
As of right now, the world is in a "promise to pay" legal tender system which has screwed up everyone.

Is there anyway to shrink a wallet (unused/empty of course) to a size that would fit in a QR code?

There should be a whole section dedicated to the legal  implications of bitcoin. Otherwise they are always going to be discounted for risk. If you can't enforce a transaction in court then there is no point.
