​​What are NFTs? NFT stands for Non-Fungible Tokens, Non-fungible is an economic term that means an unique item without interchangeable value, for a digital artist this can be an unique piece of art, for a creator it can be a song file and for a manufacturer of software it can be a program file. Fungible in economic terms stands for items that are non-unique and interchangeable for each other. For example currency, 1USD will buy you a chocolate, the value of the dollar bill is set and it is not unique, there are many 1 dollar bills and each bill will buy you a chocolate that costs 1USD. NFT's transforms digital assets by adding a unique digital signature, that makes a blockchain based digital certificate like many cryptocurrencies. It secures digital assets from being copied, forged or shared as without the original digital signature, the authenticity and legitimacy of the original digital asset created will not be present. An example, Imagine a photographer takes a photo of Mother Teresa, he digitizes it and buys a NFT token for this photograph, this photo is now secured as his unique digital asset, which means even though people can share this photograph on social media or use it as their wallpaper, they do not own the original creator signature for that digital asset, if someone wants to buy the original photograph, they will need to verify the NFT token and purchase it from the photographer. NFTs have recently been in the news drawing a lot of celebrity attention and investors onto the blockchain network as collectors and enthusiasts flock to own the original digital asset made by creators all over the world.

​​How do Electric Hair Clippers Work? Modern Electric Clippers are handheld and build on the innovations of early electric clippers. The main component of a hair clipper is the motor design. Attached to the motor is a piston that holds a set of small, sharpened blades shaped like a comb full of teeth. When the motor is powered by electricity or a battery, it moves rapidly in a horizontal fashion. There is also a slight vertical axis movement. These movements cause the blades to rub against each other at a speed that allows it to cut hair. Since the blades are self-sharpening, they cut hair without pulling the entire follicles out of the scalp. Electric clippers require little maintenance beyond brushing hairs out of the blades and applying one or two drops of lubricating oil during every other cut. The motor is housed inside a plastic case that is usually designed for handheld use. A barber typically runs the blade perpendicular to the scalp with a scooping motion at the end. Hair clippers typically come with guards of different lengths. You simply choose a guard and snap it into place. This protects the scalp and determines how long the hair will be cut to.
