So, what exactly does it mean to ‘stake’ a cryptocurrency, and why is it necessary in the first place? A Primer on Cryptocurrency Transactions and Staking Bitcoin, the world’s first cryptocurrency, pioneered the concept of decentralized currency when it was released back in 2009....

Nowadays, this isn’t an issue. Modern phones can happily connect across both types of network, and some even have dual-sim variants - like the Samsung Galaxy S20 (opens in new tab) Plus - which allows you to keep your regular US sim card AND add an additional European sim when you visit. However, you can only use this option if your phone is unlocked, which means you need to be out of contract or using a prepaid sim on a handset you bought outright....

Trudeau was asked by reporters about President Donald Trump’s response to the recent protests by suggesting he will deploy military action as well as the incident where protesters were tear gassed, “to make way for a presidential photo-op.” After taking a measured 21-second pause, Trudeau answered by saying, “we all watch in horror and consternation what’s going on in the United States. It is a time to pull people together, but it is a time to listen....

The group is also claiming the government’s contribution to high levels of greenhouse gases and climate change infringes on their right to equality, since young people are disproportionately affected by long-term effects of a deteriorating climate.

A user on the Internet Archive uploaded a scan of Saturn Fan No. 20, a Japanese magazine dedicated to the Sega Saturn and its then-upcoming releases. This 1997 issue is somewhat special, as it lists a number of Saturn games that never saw a release on the system, including an entry in the Resident Evil series. RELATED: Resident Evil Fan Patch Restores Missing Content The Saturn is infamous for its canceled Sonic game Sonic X-Treme, but a significant amount of third-party support is seen in this list, including Capcom’s Resident Evil series, known as Biohazard in Japan....

Scientists have long known that certain chemicals like paradioxane can cause cancer. Now we’re beginning to realize that the total of a person’s exposure to all the little amounts of cancerous agents in the environment may be just as harmful as big doses of a few well-known carcinogens. Over a lifetime, cigarettes deliver massive quantities of carcinogens that increase the risk of lung and other cancers. Our chances of getting cancer reflect the full gamut of carcinogens we’re exposed to each day—in air, water and food pollution, and cancerous ingredients or contaminants in household cleaners, clothing, furniture and the dozens of personal-care products many of us use daily....

Before Cancer Treatment If you’re preparing for surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy, your healthcare provider may tell you to increase your calorie and protein intake beforehand. Doing so provides your body with additional fuel stores for recovery, especially if your appetite goes down after treatment. It’s not uncommon to lose muscle mass and strength during the fight against cancer. With enough protein, you can help prevent this negative side effect. Aim to have a source of protein with every meal and snack, such as:...

Tuesday night’s panel of Adam Lefkoe, Shaquille O’Neal, Candace Parker and Dwyane Wade discussed the challenges of playing defense in the modern NBA, particularly when teams have to account for skilled big men who can sink 3-pointers at a high clip. It all started with O’Neal praising Nuggets star Nikola Jokic, who posted 37 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds in a 128-97 win over the Bucks.

NEWSWEEK: There have been a lot of rumblings on Capitol Hill these past few weeks about your bill, as well as carried interest [the share of hedge-fund and private-equity profits that managers receive for their performance].

Chuck Grassley: I think you have to see it in the context of tax codes that haven’t been changed in a long time and maybe need to be reviewed....

What’s the evidence that Rove is the mastermind? President Bush’s economic-stimulus plan is pure politics. In calling for the elimination of “double taxation” on dividends, which affects relatively few people, most of whom are wealthy, Bush sent his right-wing base into a double swoon. But he put forward virtually nothing to boost the ailing economy. This is supply-side ecstasy, a replay of the “voodoo economics” that President Reagan practiced. But even Reagan didn’t propose eliminating the estate tax, another pillar of Bush’s plan....

Experts and government watchdogs say that a 1/6 Commission is necessary to set a definitive record and counter disinformation about the Capitol insurrection, but it could be a tall hurdle to get enough Republicans on board with creating one. “The further we’ve gotten from it, the more both sides have moved into their own narratives on what 1/6 was about,” Laurel Harbridge-Yong, a political science professor at Northwestern University whose research focuses on partisan conflict, told Newsweek....
