"Some Notes and Observations Concerning the pre-decimal Coins and Tokens from the Island of Jersey" by Harold Fears. 2008

The Crayola Factory's coins @ Crayola Factory in Easton, PA

Sometimes the stupidest possible thing works. We have to carry arround these lame RSA tokens to get into the corporate VPN, but like every tech person in SF, I'm already carrying my iPhone with me.

 

I tried to take this one step further and OCR the digits with various linux CLI tools because that would mean I could simply curl the required digits from a webpage and pipe them into the SSH login script, but it kept getting confused on certain numbers. I suppose one way to go about it is to sample the pixels for dark grey vs. light grey at each of the 7 points of LCD and then make a lookup table for each of the digits, but that's about when I started getting bored with the whole project.

My tokens for the Elegant Sweet Lolita Tea were OOAK tags decorated with embossed rubber stampings and Valentine's Day themed papers. Each tag had a "candy" detail cut out from paper treat bags I purchased a few years ago. I keep all my Valentine's craft ephemera in one box for easy access.

This old token, also known as a bar chip from a now closed bar which was located in Wilkes-Barré, ,PA.

  

Such chips were given when one patron wanted to buy another one a drink. Different shapes, and/or colors determined what type of drink was to be given.

  

Many bars had such tokens, but now with contemporary registers, paper slips are printed, usually with the value and date printed on it. This is designed to keep customers from trying to get a higher priced drink with a lower valued chip. And they are dated so that they must be used on the date issued.

  

These colorful and nostalgic collectibles have a good following of collectors.

Crews exchange tokens. In fact the guy on the loco looks as if he’s carrying a machine gun!!

This is an undated but probably late Victorian public house 'check' or trade token issued at the Pall Hotel. It is made of brass, is 25mm in diameter and has a milled edge. The reverse is plain but on the obverse it says "PALL HOTEL, YEOVIL" and its value - 2D.

 

At this time two old pence could buy you a pint of stout.

 

Checks were frequently used in games, such as skittles or quoits where, for instance, players would 'chip in' a check to the 'kitty' which would be won by the winning team to redeem at the bar. By issuing checks a landlord could guarantee they would be spent in his establishment only.

My PokerStars Security Token died today. How about using Google Authenticator instead for logging securely into online poker accounts?

Google Authenticator is a Google Play app that generates 2-step verification codes on your phone, and can be used when logging into online accounts, such as Gmail, Dropbox or Outlook.

 

So +PokerStars, how about saving us 3,000 FPPs for ordering a new token and enabling a convenient, free-to-use Android app that gets the job done? I bet it will force more players to secure their accounts, as well.

D7612 at the Open Day at Eastleigh in 2009.

 

D7612 was built at Derby works and entered traffic on 23rd April 1966 allocated to Eastfield MPD. It was one of a batch of thirteen allocated to the Scottish Region fitted with single line token catcher recesses in the cab sides under the drivers windows. , Within a year D7612 transferred south to Toton in September 1967. It then transferred to Bescot in the early 1970’s from where it worked until being placed into store (unserviceable) in April 1982 at Derby works with power unit problems. It received the power unit from 25274 and was restored to service at Bescot in May 1982. 25262, transferred north on 30 September 1985 being allocated to Kingmoor. It was allocated the new number of 25901 on 19 December 1985 with the actual transfers on the locomotive being changed the following day. The 25/9 was a sub class of twelve locos for use on Industrial Minerals and Chemical sectors of BR. The last of the class 25's were withdrawn in 1987 with 25901 being officially withdrawn on the 16th March 1987, however the loco worked on past this date on trip work and is thought to be the last class 25 to work a normal BR service towards the end of April 1987. The locomotive was stored at Kingmoor but later moved to Upperby for inspection on 9th August 1988 before returning to Kingmoor. It was then sent back to Upperby for storage on 10th November 1988. The following year the loco undertook a tour of the country, being towed south to Crewe South Yard on 31st May 1989. It was to have gone to Vic Berry for scrapping, but was found to have been sold not to them but to Harry Needle. It then went back up north moving from Crewe on 7th June 1989 to MC Metals for asbestos removal.. On 17th September 1989 it moved by road to the East Lancashire Railway. It was later sold on to a small group of members on the railway who repainted the loco into green livery as D7612. In 1999 it was sold on again and moved to the South Devon Railway by road on 30th March 1999.

NY Times: "An updated edition of [Monopoly]will include tokens that are styled after name-brand products. Five of the eight tokens in the new Monopoly Here and Now edition will be branded, offering game players the chance to be represented by miniature versions of a Toyota Prius hybrid car, an order of McDonald’s French fries, a New Balance running shoe, a cup of Starbucks coffee or a Motorola Razr cellphone."

An announcement made by Singapore-based Terra and the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) which is a nonprofit organization designed to support the Terra network to build and promote a decentralized economy. It claimed of raising $1 billion in a private token sale of LUNA led by Three Arrows Capital headed by Ethereum critic Su Zhu and Jump Crypto.

 

The trading group that led the raise was also responsible for Solana cross-chain bridge Wormhole whole after a $320 million hack. The foundation did not say anything about the specifics of the raise or whether the funds were raised directly in Bitcoin. As per LFG, the funds will be used to create a UST Forex Reserve denominated in Bitcoin for the biggest stablecoin on the Terra chain, TerraUST, Depending on when the raising took place, the value would be under $1 billion due to the market downturn. As a result of this $1 billion, which will be locked up for a vesting period of four years, it will be used as a release valve for UST redemption to maintain the USD peg. To maintain its peg UST which is a stablecoin uses Terra's LUNA.
