Boosters, fencers, and cleaners: Inside cartels' newest criminal enterprise of organized retail theft
A nationwide retail theft epidemic cost the United States close to $100 billion in 2021. Stores are being forced to raise prices or shut up shop, insurers are refusing to help, and smaller mom and pop stores are being left behind. In this series, Mayhem on Main Street, the Washington Examiner will investigate the causes behind the scourge of shoplifting, the role of the cartels, the cost to stores big and small, and the complicity of lax prosecutors. Part 2 investigates the role of the cartels. To read Part 1, click here.
Mexican cartels are behind the spike in organized retail crime and are deeply entrenched in every level of the process, according to the federal government's chief investigative agency.
Retailers nationwide sustained nearly $100 billion worth of losses in 2021, the highest year on record, according to the National Retail Federation report published in September 2022. The growing number of cartel-run theft rings around the country drove that figure up from $70 billion in 2019.
"Organized retail crime is leading to more brazen and more violent attacks in retail stores throughout the country. Many of the criminal rings orchestrating these thefts are also involved in other serious criminal activity such as human trafficking, narcotics trafficking, weapon trafficking, and more," said Steve Francis, acting executive associate director for Homeland Security Investigations, in a statement. HSI is part of the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
This retail theft mob happened at a Nordstrom in California today. Because of broken state laws, these crimes are considered "non-serious" and "non-violent" and nobody will go to state prison, even if caught and convicted. State laws need to be fixed and YES, many people need to… pic.twitter.com/nESaJSxj4p
The Retail Industry Leaders Association described the acceleration of organized retail crime in recent years as having "exploded."
In fact, 80% of retailers polled nationwide reported an increase in merchandise stolen in 2022, according to the National Retail Federation.
No subindustry of retail is exempt. A spokeswoman for the home improvement corporation said Home Depot's most targeted items have been wire and wiring devices, power tools, and home automation products. When stores lock up those items, it only prompts thieves to focus on stealing other high-ticket items.
"Organized retail crime is an ongoing issue, and it has been on the rise over the last several years for many retailers," said Evelyn Fornes, Home Depot's senior manager of public affairs.
Organized retail crime has taken a huge toll on federal and state governments, costing them $15 billion in lost tax revenue, not including lost sales taxes, according to HSI.
Additionally, the average family will fork up an extra $500 annually to cover rising costs of goods as companies increase their prices to make up for stolen goods.
The type of mass-theft seen around the nation, particularly since the coronavirus pandemic began, is different than shoplifting, according to HSI. As the pandemic set in, people increasingly pivoted to purchasing items online, making it easier to sell stolen goods.
"Organized retail crime exploded over the last few years as criminals exploited the anonymity of third-party online marketplaces to fence billions in stolen products," RILA Senior Executive Vice President of Public Affairs Michael Hanson said in a statement.
These retail crimes are perpetrated by people who work as part of a crime ring run by cartels. In recent years, cartels have gone from illicit drug manufacturing and smuggling, human smuggling and trafficking, and illegal firearm smuggling to commandeering crime in the retail environment.
Cartels are involved in every level of retail crime, from in-store theft and listing items in online marketplaces to shipping stolen merchandise worldwide and using U.S. financial institutions to hold their profits.
"Unlike shoplifting, where an individual steals food due to hunger or related incidents of simple theft, [organized theft groups] illegally profit from systematically targeting retail establishments utilizing professional thieves known as 'boosters,'" according to HSI. "Often, boosters travel in crews throughout the country utilizing aliases, rental vehicles, and tools such as 'booster bags' and illegally acquired security keys to steal high-value merchandise."
Stolen items are then handed over to the second person in the theft ring: the "fencer" or "fence." The fencer buys the merchandise from the booster at a discounted price and will list the item on a number of platforms, including e-commerce websites such as eBay and Amazon, social media, and wholesale or trading companies.
Fencers will go to great lengths to conceal that the items were stolen. One example is using lighter fluid and heat guns to remove anti-theft stickers from goods. Once purchased, goods may be shipped via cargo containers overseas to be sold.
Kansas and Missouri are among the top 10 most affected states due to their prime location, according to Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach.
"The reason is almost certainly the I-70 corridor, which has become a pipeline not only for drugs but also for organized retail crime. There is a link between drug trafficking and organized retail crime," Kobach said in prepared remarks for testimony before a House subcommittee in June. "The drug-addicted often become boosters in order to feed their habits, and some fences recruit them specifically."
Boosters "almost always" steal a dollar amount that is below the felony theft level, Kobach said. In Kansas, that looks like $900 worth of merchandise being stolen to stay below the $1,000 felony threshold.
Boosters typically use "pushouts" or "rollouts," throwing items in a cart or large bag and walking or running out of the store, "knowing that the policy of the corporation prohibits staff from stopping them," according to Kobach.
"With this brazenness comes increased violence, with boosters sometimes assaulting or even using pepper spray against store personnel who dare to intervene," he said. "Boosters will hit the same specific store with impunity, sometimes as frequently as two to three times per week."
One such incident in April turned tragic when the booster was approached by Blake Mohs, a 26-year-old Home Depot security guard in New Jersey. Mohs took back the stolen merchandise and was shot. The woman arrested after the shooting was identified as 32-year-old private security guard Benicia Knapps. Knapps picked up the stolen item next to Mohs and ran out after shooting him.
Home Depot has since introduced several initiatives to mitigate theft, though Fornes did not share details.
The final two steps in the theft cycle are left to the "cleaners," whose job is to disguise the origins of stolen merchandise, and professional money launderers who funnel the profits, according to HSI.
This summer, Congress cracked down on items sold on retail sites, including Amazon and eBay. The INFORM Consumers Act, passed in June, has been the biggest step forward for retailers and law enforcement. The Federal Trade Commission issued a warning to online sellers that it would be cracking down as the law called for.
"The industry is hopeful that requiring online marketplaces to collect, verify and disclose information about high-volume third-party sellers, marketplaces will finally evict bad actors from their platforms," RILA Senior Executive Vice President of Retail Operations Lisa LaBruno said in a statement when the bill was passed. "In turn, consumers can shop with more confidence that the products they purchase online are legitimate."
Fornes called it a positive first step for how it takes away the "cloak of anonymity" that professional shoplifters hide behind when selling stolen merchandise online.
"Now, Congress and states must focus on three paths forward: First, enforcing the new law of the land. Second, creating capacity for law enforcement to investigate and prosecute cases through funding federal, state, and local task forces. And third, educating and training law enforcement and prosecutors on how to partner with retailers to combat dangerous criminals and organized crime," Fornes said.

Many hearing aid users have difficulty hearing in noisy or reverberant environments. Sometimes this is merely an inconvenience, but in a dental polyclinic setting where dentist-patient communication is critical, such challenges can be a matter of health and safety. As a possible solution to this problem, a hearing-impaired dental student evaluated the LEXIS™ FM system during practical courses and found that the technology performs well under these conditions.
The Need for Wireless FM
Improving communication success for hearing impaired people typically involves the provision of hearing aids.1 Today's state-of-the-art hearing aids use both analog and digital signal processing technology, and over the past decade the hearing care field has seen great improvement in the devices' audiological efficacy and multi-microphone directionality. Despite these advances, however, hearing aid users can still have trouble understanding in challenging listening conditions characterized by background noise, reverberation, or unfavorable distance to the presenter.
As a solution, wireless communication systems have become widely used by many hearing aid users. In such solutions, a microphone is typically placed close to the talker's mouth, and the voice signal is amplified and delivered to the hearing aid via FM radio transmission. FM stands for "frequency modulation" and is a method of encoding audio information within a radio wave by periodically varying the instantaneous frequency while maintaining a constant amplitude. Because the quality of the sound reaching the hearing aid user's ear via an FM system depends largely on the characteristics and placement of the transmitter microphone, the listener often experiences the talker's voice as if he or she were only inches away.
FM and Students
Students are the most prominent group within the FM-user community. This is because classrooms and lecture halls can present great challenges for speech understanding—especially at an age when language development and knowledge acquisition are critical. Distance from the teacher and varying speech levels as the teacher moves about can impair intelligibility. Noise from computers, heating ducts, and other common equipment can mask information. Rooms darkened for slide presentations make lip-reading nearly impossible.
But these problems are not limited to the classroom or to the young. Communication difficulties in automobiles, restaurants, parties, houses of worship, and other situations are well known to adult hearing aid users.
To meet the communication requirements of children and adult, nine companies—Audibel, Bernafon, Micro-Tech, Nu-Ear, Omni, Oticon, Phonic Ear, Qualitone, and Starkey—have recently developed and introduced an FM system called Lexis (Figure 1).2 The basic components of the system are a transmitter with a built-in directional microphone array, plus a small receiver that attaches to nearly any behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid via an audio shoe.
Figure 1. The Lexis system with receiver.
Because the transmitter's array is highly directional (8.5 AI-DI) and uses digital signal processing to maintain low-frequency performance, the objective of the following evaluation was to focus on the benefits of Lexis outside the traditional classroom environment where listening conditions are extremely variable and (potentially) even more challenging. Many listening devices show sufficient performance characteristics when being used in common situations; unfortunately, deficits can accumulate when undergoing real "road tests."
FM System in a Dental Office/Educational Setting
Selecting an adult candidate for FM use requires establishment of need (ie, how important is communication to that individual?), activity level (ie, will the individual frequently encounter troublesome listening environments?), and comfort with technology (ie, will the introduction of a hearing aid accessory be accepted?).
For this evaluation, the author positively met all three criteria. As a 27-year-old dental student taking his practical patient course at the School of Dental Medicine at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany, he needs to communicate with patients without error, is expected to perform dental examinations and procedures frequently, and is a good adopter of technology due to his technical (engineering) background.
The Friedrich-Alexander-University dental curriculum contains several clinical courses, normally performed in polyclinics with many dental chairs placed side-by-side. Dentistry is a profession under recent scrutiny for the possible hazardous impact of noise on the dentist's hearing. Although studies have concluded that typical dental office conditions are below the limit of risk, noise from drills and other equipment can be severely disturbing for a hearing-impaired dentist—particularly when trying to communicate with a patient. Obviously, clear understanding between dentist and patient is very important to avoid any grave errors in treatment (eg, history of allergic reactions, understanding concerns about discomfort/pain, etc).
Because of the importance of having full freedom of head movement and the smallest area for possible contamination, an ear-level receiver system such as Lexis seemed ideal for the dental treatment sessions.
The author's hearing loss was diagnosed at age 5, the result of improper treatment with ototoxic streptomycin. Audiometric evaluations reveal symmetric bilateral sensorineural hearing loss with profound hearing loss in both ears (Figure 2). Unaided speech-recognition scores are 45% for recorded monosyllabic words (Freiburg-Test) presented at 60 dB SPL. Bone-conduction thresholds measured at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, and 1000 Hz reveal only tactile responses. Acoustic reflexes are consistent with cochlear pathology.
Figure 2. Hearing thresholds of author.
The author has worn binaural hearing aids since age 6, including recent BTE Perseo models with integrated FM receivers. For the purpose of this evaluation, he additionally switched to binaural BTE Phillips D72 instruments with Lexis receivers.
Communication abilities are good under optimal listening conditions with both brands of hearing aid aids. However, difficult situations are encountered with:
• Lectures with dimmed lights during slide presentations;
• Discussions in the lecture theatre with colleagues;
• Instructions at the dental chair in the polyclinic with background noise from neighboring chairs.
• Talking to patients in the polyclinic office setting—especially children, women and soft-speaking patients in general.
The author had used a Phonak MicroVox FM system for many years with good results; however, this system reached its limits under these special conditions.
Evaluation Results
The Lexis system was evaluated during the winter term 2003/04, revealing the following observations:
• The system greatly enhances understanding in noisy clinical and theater conditions due to its variable focus control function. If background noise increases, the Superfocus mode helps to filter the important spoken information. Furthermore, discussions in the lecture theatre became easier to follow with little loss in information.
• Dentistry requires special hygienic conditions. While in many public situations, such as in cafeteria or a bar, the FM system can be placed on the table. This is a problem at the dental chair. First, the possibility to disinfect the device is an important condition for the implementation of an FM system under clinical conditions. Because of its rounded shape and plain surface, Lexis meets this requirement. The evaluation has shown no damages of the surface coating after more than 100 applications with a standard surface disinfection solvent. Furthermore, because of the silver colour it gives a very clean impression to the patient. The footing on the instrument table is secured by the special stand mechanism with the batteries integrated in the base serving as a strong abutment.
• In some situations (eg, during polishing or periodontal surgery that can produce aerosol blood generation), it is recommended that the patient place the transmitter under the napkin, securing it with the Lexis clip system. Due to the specific placement of 4-microphone array, the generation of friction noise is very low.
• The wireless connection guarantees the greatest freedom of head movement possible for the dentist and contributes to a safe dental treatment. There is no risk of loose wires dropping into the operation field.
• The author experienced little or no interference with patient-monitoring systems or when using ultrasonic scalers.
• The power consumption of both the hearing aids and the FM system was fairly low; however, there could be further improvements and size reductions using ultra-low-power circuits and chips. The past decade has seen major reductions in minimum feature size for digital CMOS processes. Although the integration of smaller devices leads accordingly to lower power-supply voltages, digital hardware still constitutes a power-hungry solution for applications such hearing aids and other listening devices. The main problem is that, in a number of situations, the computational complexity and low power consumption required in medical devices restricts the minimum size possible.3
• In contrast to similar products, the Lexis receiver features an independent microphone sensitivity control. Adjustable within ±7 dB, this control provides power resources for special situations when necessary.
• An additional stereo jack provides the possibility to connect the system with other communication devices used in a dental clinic (eg, a radio set as used in emergency service).
Lexis performed well under the special conditions of dental education and practice. The author recommends it to dental/medical students and professionals.

The Macarsi method is not only intended to teach music, but it is also an excellent means for a correct integral learning of children . But who is Macarsi? Macarsi is the acronym for María del Carmen Silva, a music teacher and pedagogue and founder of this learning method . He is also the first person to carry out the method and apply it for the first time on his own daughter, the famous singer Natalia Lafourcade, as a method of rehabilitation after an accident she had at the age of 6 with a horse.
The premise of the Macarsi method is that every child needs to be well with himself for the development of his own learning . That is why the method consists of two types of training, musical training and comprehensive development , but let's see below and in more detail, through this article, what exactly each stage of the Macarsi method consists of.
What does each point consist of?
Musical formation
The teacher must also influence musical training and seek to train the ear of his students so that he learns to recognize and interpret the qualities of sounds, in this way he develops his musical ear. It is a stage in which emphasis should be placed on learning:
- the accent of the beat of time.
- musical notation.
- the rhythm of the language.
- the movement.
It is also important that the child begins to practice an instrument of his choice, such as the violin, the guitar or the flute. The recommended age for children to start in music is from 5 years old , since it is when they are most permeable and attentive, although it can also be carried out with children of infants or older.
Comprehensive development in the Macarsi method
Regarding the integral development of the method, the child must receive teachings in 4 areas at the same time , which are: affective, social, intellectual and motor:
- In the effective area, it seeks to reinforce the child's self-esteem, since confidence in himself and in the future is very important so that the little ones can face adversity and emerge strengthened from the challenges that arise in life.
- In the social area , the aim is to encourage empathy and companionship of the little ones, so that they internalize the values of friendship, tolerance or respect. This is what will allow their formation towards leadership and self-leadership, which is very important to face projects in life.
- In the intellectual area , the child's concentration is worked, which is reinforced with music or also memorization and attention. This work also stimulates creativity, which is very important in musicians to join pieces, disintegrate them and create new ones.
- Finally, we find the motor area, in which the child must respond to a correct coordination of their senses: visual, auditory and motor and, in this sense, music leads them little by little to have a better musical rhythm.
This method shows that the learning of music should not be subordinated to a single instrument , as is usually done in classrooms, generally with the flute, but must be done in a global way, even with games , since music is found in many different moments and spaces in history and in our daily lives , which allows learning to be global and much more complete. In this process, in addition, training and educating the ear musically will be vital so that the little ones can develop skills related to music, such as harmony, rhythm or melody.

Active ingredients:
Isoquinoline alkaloids: Chelerythrine (Chelerythrine chloride)
98% Chelerythrine chloride by HPLC
Chelerythrine (Chelerythrine chloride, CAS NO. 3895-92-9, Mocular: C21H18NO4CL) is a quaternary benzo[c] phenanthridine alkaloid. According to studies, it mostly exhibits tumour resistant, microbe resistant, and inflammation resistant qualities. Plus, the substance is a powerful disruptor when it comes to PKC (or protein kinase C). As such, the prospective utilisation of Chelerythrine, as a form of inflammation resistance, has been the topic of much debate. Its qualities are linked to its capacity to engage with DNA and proteins. This is an enzyme that plays an important part in the control of signal transduction, cell propagation, and cell variation.

Dear Jonathan,
Do you think of me at all, Jonathan? I think of you often. Or at least I used to.
I thought about you long and hard the night it all went down. I couldn't understand how so many of my friends could still go out on the town after all we'd been through. They were bellied up at the bar, Jonathan, probably throwing game at the same peroxide piranhas that we couldn't get away from the whole time we were in school.
But not us. The Super Rebels. The kids who came up living and dying by this shit. The boys who judged each year of our short lives by the outcomes of two football games in November. There we were laid up and quiet in a dark living room just off of South Lamar. Exiles on Pain Street who didn't give a damn about the girls or the bars or the music for once. Sometimes I wonder what that night was like for you.
Of course it got easier with time, Jonathan. As the years went by I thought less and less about it. Quit seeing that ball sail on you. From my angle, I really couldn't tell if you pushed it or if you just hit it off center, or if it sliced or what. But I quit seeing it in my sleep after a while.
The truth is that we had it all wrong that night. Even as we stare down our best chance to get to Atlanta in years, I know that nothing that happens on the field is so important as to make me want to miss one second of the aesthetic event that is Ole Miss Football - before, during and after the game. We really don't lose parties, you know?
I'm sure you didn't get to walk through many of the tailgating scenes at the away games Jonathan, but I did. I'll tell you a secret about them: they're all the same. Parking spaces. Hamburgers. Jerseys and jeans. Actual tail gates – like the part of a truck bed that folds down, Jonathan. Believe it.
To pre-game in Fayetteville is to pre-game in Starkville. If you squint your eyes you could mistake your surroundings for Baton Rouge or Auburn or – what's worse – Kansas City or Seattle. All these scenes are exact replicas with different colors. They are lame in that way that the Knack's "My Sharona" is lame. It is a boiled down, gentrified, mind numbingly inoffensive microcosm of every other song that ever came out in the 1980s. Such is the parking lot at Bryant Denny.
But not the Grove, Jonny boy. Not that place that I turned my back on that night you shanked everything you touched. Once you set foot there, you know where you're at.
You know the way to really piss off your enemies? You become the beast they tell everyone you are. Kierkegaard said that if you label someone, you negate them, Jonathan. At Ole Miss they labeled us as pricks and we showed up with fine China and Johnny Walker Black and told the bastards to keep out of our yard. We manicured that campus like no other. We hung chandeliers and set out immaculate spreads of food and we watched as the circus came to town - complete with champagne and caviar and store-bought C-cups, Jonathan.
via mymouthful.files.wordpress.com
And therein lies the victory, my man. The essence of being a Rebel is to defy someone or something. And in Oxford we defy our detractors with sun dresses and centuries-old Oak trees and fine wines and crisp October afternoons.
So don't beat yourself up anymore Jonathan. No matter the outcome, we'll finish 2009 the same way we finished 2003, and the same way we've finished every year since the 19th Century. Undefeated.
Finger in the Air,
William X. Fremp

A delicious recipe for liwet rice in Western Javanese
The recipe for Liwet rice typical of West Java is in demand today. It is not for nothing that this recipe has a characteristic taste with unsurpassed delicacies. If you happen to visit West Java, of course this one dish is a very must try.
Western Javanese Liwet rice has a different flavor than liwet rice in other regions. In addition to being densely filled with spices, this sunny rice liwet has special characteristics. Among them is lalapan.
Most Sundas living in West Java have a habit of eating raw vegetables while eating. This also applies to cooking wet rice dishes. In fact, the raw vegetables that are put in this wet rice are much more complete.
Moreover, there are also other menus that are often combined with this recipe for perpetual rice from West Java . Among them are tempeh and fried tofu, fried kale, fried chicken, eggs, salted fish, anchovies, and the most mandatory is sambal goang.
Things to prepare before making Sundanese Liwet rice
In this first step, of course, the first thing you need to prepare is the equipment. Speaking of liquid rice, you need to cook it with a Sundanese-style "hawu". This hawu is like a stove. Fuel uses wood.
However, since the preparation of this haw is not easy, you can also make rice liwet using mejikom or a regular oven. The method is somewhat easier, despite the fact that in fact the use of mejikom makes the taste of the liquid slightly altered.
In addition, you also need to prepare the ingredients needed to prepare the liwetta rice itself. Relax, because these ingredients are not at all difficult to find. Just look for it in the nearest stalls in your regions.
If the ingredients are ready, it is enough to prepare other necessary equipment. Then we can continue the discussion about the recipe for this typical Western Javanese rice liwet .
Ingredients needed for the production of liwet rice
The ingredients needed to make this rice are not too complicated. But what makes it crowded is another complementary variant of the menu that is usually served at the time of the event itself. What are the ingredients? Check out the explanation below:
- Rice 500 grams
- Shallots 7 cloves cleanses the skin
- Bay leaf 4 pieces, wash thoroughly
- Lemongrass 4 chopsticks as a flavoring agent, geprek emit a fragrant smell
- Salt to taste

Marvellousfiction Guild Wars online - Chapter 240 - Mephisto sack bake recommendation-p3 Awesomefiction fiction - Chapter 240 - Mephisto knowing parcel share-p3 Novel-Guild Wars-Guild Wars Chapter 240 - Mephisto fumbling fair No, that's not entirely right, Mephisto recognized as his eyes narrowed. Draco's devil bloodstream had not been purer than his, because It was together with Draconic our blood, corrupted angelic blood and even… demon blood! Based on the initial approach, she ought to have snuck away immediately after having his seed and presented start to the kid inside the Devil Realm. He possessed strategies to recover his still Position 1 girl providing he paid out an increased cost. "I really believe so. He really should have the potential to easily developed into a True G.o.d upon adulthood and improve more into an Origin G.o.d with some additional energy." Mephisto clarified which has a slight nod. Draco glanced at Loki, who had been silently seeing his grandpa, experiencing feelings of familiarity because of the aura he exuded, ahead of looking lower back at Mephisto. Actually, that was the power of another era! Dependant upon the hardsh.i.p.s of the parents in carving out some capital, the pampered 2nd age group would grow during the most effective situations and not recognize time and energy or discomfort. Mephisto neglected Draco and continued to be fixated on his grandson who has been inside the biceps and triceps of Zaine. His conceited speech sounded out after a little silence. check list of the birds of kansas Zaine quickly introduced Mephisto nearly speed about the circ.you.mstances encompassing Draco, Eva, Hikari, and Roma. When Mephisto heard every little thing, his whole attitude improved. venice the city of masks So, when Draco implanted his effective bloodline in to a mate which has a genetic composition that not only developed a resonance using one of his bloodline's facets, but tend to blend together to produce a little something more powerful, how could a very young be basic? Nevertheless he was nevertheless surprised by the power of Draco's bloodline. Mephisto was the first choice of your overall competition, and despite his deadly flaw of arrogance, he nonetheless obtained the qualifications as a director. This wasn't the Xianxia part of Boundless where there became a greater realm with a lot more professionals and better laws/power etcetera. Traditional western Dream was 1 fixed world which has a crystal clear roof that was extremely challenging to arrive at precisely mainly because it was restricted. As Lucifer had professed, the 9 Initial Humans had merely been overpowered youngsters with far too much ability and extremely very little manage. This result possessed bled down onto Draco and Eva, in addition to Community Lord. "As a result, I hypothesize that the 'Primogenitor' equates with an Source G.o.d stage existence." The surrounding gone private as everyone was amazed, chances are they burst open into fun. Mephisto frowned at their reaction to his require, in case anyone had been to find out that some mere viruses obtained built him work, he would developed into a laughing stock. An Starting point G.o.d! Draco started to be private and for that reason performed his girls. At this moment, each of them began to know how wild their lifestyle was when followed by Draco. If they mated to bear offspring, these young ended up being leagues above even they, the parents. Draco glanced at Loki, who has been silently seeing his grandfather, experience a feeling of familiarity by the aura he exuded, prior to seeking rear at Mephisto. Draco was not so headstrong to make-believe he was the world's most effective father in the onset. Mephisto were built with a family of sons and daughters who had his genuine bloodline, each and every with different individuality and features. Draco set the concerns of Vita Location-Status away, simply because currently he was been to by anyone interesting. Draco visited sit down on his throne in the Aether Hallway, with Riveting Night time, Hikari, Roma, and Zaine in their thrones while they all gazed on a certain person who have also been seated across them. Mephisto shook his go. "Have you heard of Primogenitors?" Zaine smiled and in many cases Loki laughed when they experienced the mood brighten up. In the near future, Mephisto still left right after speaking about some options with Draco and abandoning a band regarding, which might allow Draco to contact him immediately, even so the other remained on his throne. "Listen to me, just let their moms boost them. They are the smart choice to the matter, and they can do a more satisfactory job than you. Crysta raised the vast majority of our youngsters on top of that, and she made certain stability in addition to enough awareness for each and every baby." So, both equally Rosella and Loki became available ingesting Aetheric Vigor as if it was standard water mainly because they have been existences above Aether (Impressive), possibly shutting down in on G.o.ds (Divine). Out of the blue, Mephisto's thoughts clicked, and his amazed manifestation lightened up. Each ounce of arrogance still left his human body as he focused on Draco solemnly. His complexion was extremely light-weight, just about to begin simply being pale and his awesome face was effectively-set up with skinny lip area with an typical-scale sinuses. He wore a tight dark colored vest and close-installing khaki shorts that highlighted his toned system. This can be why Draco never made use of the Devil Component of his bloodline, that was the actual Component. He could barely remain in his 'Ultimate Devil' type more than three break up seconds, to ensure that was noticeable. The main reason he believed it absolutely was purer was simply because it was obviously a much stronger alternative of the devil blood. His devil blood stream purity was extensive, but Mephisto's was technically better. Draco grew to become calm and thus managed his women of all ages. At this point, each one begun to recognize how nuts their living was when followed by Draco. When they mated to bear offspring, these offspring ended up being leagues above even they, the parents. "Hear me, permit their mums raise them. They are the smart choice for the subject, and they can do a more satisfactory job than you. Crysta heightened most of our little ones also, and she ascertained security along with enough focus for every youngster." So, either Rosella and Loki arrived consuming Aetheric Power enjoy it was h2o since they were existences higher than Aether (Popular), probably closing in on G.o.ds (Divine). "Zaine, we will make, there exists a limited time-frame to return to our homeworld." Mephisto claimed imposingly. Not surprisingly, the actual appeal was they were all intense troublemakers. He would certainly profit by in search of his (daddy-in-regulations?) guidance on the matter. The bedroom proceeded to go noiseless as everybody was amazed, then they burst into fun. Mephisto frowned at their reaction to his need, however if somebody had been to see that some simple bacterias experienced built him take action, he would become a giggling carry. "I will get back to our kingdom and send some of my equipped sons over to educate my grandson every factor of becoming a Devil together with how to take advantage of his potential. Just because he has unlimited possible doesn't signify he really should squander it. We don't want him to finish up far too much like his mother, should we?" To be honest, 99Per cent bloodline resulted in he needs to be an Starting point G.o.d at most effective, or simply a Semi-Origins G.o.d at most detrimental in his several racial Point out of Beings. The identical moved for Eva, who has been shutting down in on 99Per cent at this time. Zaine was minimal promiscuous of his three young girls, nevertheless the most wise in addition to the most assured one. Her individual vice was her laziness, for which he partially blamed him or her self for tolerating it.

Some things to think of when discussing the use of NFTs as a ticketing system are; What are NFT ticketing systems and their applications, how would an NFT ticketing system work, and what are the benefits and challenges of using an NFT ticketing system, and what the future could hold.
Although there are many potential applications for NFT ticketing systems, one of the most promising uses is in augmented reality. By using a token-based system, event organizers can create a virtual space that attendees can explore and interact with which is only accessible through ownership of a specific token. This could extend to interactive games, exclusive content, communication, and transactional events. In addition, NFT ticketing could be used to manage entry into events, making it easier and faster for guests to get into the venue. Ultimately, this new technology has the potential to reimagine how we experience events – both live and online.
NFT ticketing systems reinvent how ticket sales are conducted. They provide a number of benefits for both event organizers and attendees. These systems use blockchain technology to create unique tickets that can be transferred and sold online. This provides a secure and transparent way to sell tickets, while also preventing fraud. NFT ticketing systems also allow event organizers to track attendance and collect data on how people interact with their events. This information can help organizers improve future events, engage their communities, distribute important messaging, and build their community impact. For attendees, NFT ticketing systems provide an easy way to purchase tickets, transfer them to friends, and engage with new digital NFT experiences on location. They also offer the security of knowing that their tickets cannot be stolen or duplicated. As more and more events begin using NFT ticketing systems, the benefits they provide will continue to grow.
Utilizing our Proof of Presence system (PoPS) for tickets or passes for special events grants special access to unique on-location in-game content and experiences. This could provide a whole new level of immersion and excitement for fans as well as added revenue opportunities for artists, developers, and publishers. Given the current popularity of augmented reality (AR), it's also likely that AR games would benefit greatly from incorporating NFT ticketing systems through the utility derived from owning one's data. So far, there has been little experimentation in this area, but, the work the team's putting in will result in new discoveries, innovations, and business models.
So, what is NFT ticketing? In short, it's a web3 system for permission access to events, content experiences, chats, and community. This could be anything from a movie ticket, to a mint pass for an upcoming project, or for an access credential at a music festival.
What features are you looking to use NFTs for? Let me know on Twitter – I'd love to hear your ideas!

South Korean esports organization Gen.G finalized its League of Legends roster for the 2023 season on Wednesday, November 23. As revealed, the new-look lineup will welcome a new bottom lane duo, which will include a home-grown talent in Kim "Peyz" Su-hwan.
On Wednesday, Gen.G announced the addition of ADC Payz, who rounds up the Korean League of Legends roster for the 2023 season. The announcement comes shortly after Gen.G extended contracts with its jungler Han "Peanut" Wang-ho and top laner Choi "Doran" Hyeon-joon, who have agreed to continue playing with Jeong "Chovy" Ji-hoon whose contract runs until November 2023.
The addition of Payz is not as shocking as roster moves other League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) or LoL Pro League (LPL) are getting ready to complete. Nevertheless, it's still a big move that could make or break Gen.G's 2023 season.
Payz joins Gen.G as the new starting ADC and replacement for Park "Ruler" Jae-hyuk, who left the team on November 10, ending his six-and-a-half-year-long stint with the Korean esports organization. As a former world champion and one of the best ADC players in the world, Rules played a key role in Gen.G's success over the years, making him nearly irreplaceable part of the team.
Suffice to say, Payz will have large shoes to fill, but the Korean esports organization seems to have faith in the 16-year-old, who will make his professional debut in the 2023 season.
Peyz is a 16-year-old South Korean LoL player who started his career in July 2020 with Gen.G Academy, where he has spent a year perfecting his craft. With Gen.G Academy, Payz had a rough start, as the team crashed out of the LCK AS 2022 August in ninth-16th place; however, he bounced back strong upon his return in 2021 and led the team to LCK AS 2021 May title.
By the end of the year, Gen.G Academy added another title at LCK AS 2021 August and even performed well at LCK AS 2021 1st Championship, where they placed fourth. After proving his worth in the academy team, Peyz got promoted to the Gen.G Challenger division, where he has spent nearly one year.
With Gen.G Challengers, Peyz finished seventh in LCK CL 2022 Spring, claimed bronze from LCK CL 2022 Summer, and ended the year with a fifth-place finish at LCK CL 2022 Summer Playoffs. Although the team hadn't won a single trophy last season, Peyz proved himself as one of the most talented players in the league, boasting the league's fourth-highest KDA (4.94).
Despite being a fairly inexperienced player, Peyz has shown a lot of promise, and it seems like Gen.G has faith in his talent. As revealed, Peyz has signed a contract that will tie him with the team until the end of 2024, suggesting that Gen.G is looking to keep him for the long run.
Besides signing Peyz to replace Ruler, Gen.G also made changes in the support position, as the team had to replace Son "Lehends" Si-woo, who left the organization on November 21. To fill in the gap Gen.G signed Yoo "Delight" Hwan-joong, who started his LoL career with Gen.G Academy in August 2019 and has since played for T1 Academy, T1 Rookies, hyFresh Blade, and Fredit BRION.
At 20 years of age, Delight already has two years of experience competing in the LCK, having been a part of Fredit BRION since December 2020. And even though he has not achieved much with his former team, Delight has now joined one of the most stacked rosters in Korea, where he'll have a chance to prove himself and begin what could quickly turn into the most successful season of his career.
