___________________ ## A Big Red Doughnut ## https://steemit.com/life/@tomatom/a-big-red-doughnut-73de037011bbc Author: @tomatom Curator: @nicnas ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/0x0/https://pufflesandhoneyadventures.files.wordpress.com/2017/03/106a2082-e1488720781682.jpg) -=- I love art and appreciate the beauty and skill involved in making most pieces. But I do often see some sort of art, whether it be 3d or a painting, and just wonder what was the intention of that particular art piece. Other times i'll see a famous or popular item and wonder what the amusement is about. I guess it all comes to perspective and maybe certain pieces just have an emotional value or some of us. Here in this post @tomatom shares with us a 3D modern art piece that he ran into on a tour of the Gallery of Modern Art. At first he was neutral to it, until it drew him in. -=- -----

___________________ ## Steem Payout Checker ## https://steemit.com/steemit/@jlordc/steem-payout-checker Author: @jlordc Curator: @nicnas ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/0x0/https://ipfs.busy.org/ipfs/QmemewrTJECeVrbY1Vcf4fx6KsXfB4bb3yrZEZESzEXhVH) -=- The tools built along side the steem blockchain to help us manage our blogs and investments are becoming increasingly advanced. I have been using steemworld.org and loving the amount of attention the creator @steemchiller has put into designing the all-in-one place. But here @jlordc shares with us another option that helps us see what our upcoming payouts will be. His review is excellent and walks us through the site and how it works. -=- -----

______________ ## My experience with (Trainwreck) Marijuana Strain ## https://steemit.com/cannabis/@pinkyblogger/my-experience-with-trainwreck-marijuana-strain Author: @pinkyblogger Curator: @nicnas ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/0x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWrQ8xGPTfEiDoDntG3SDhG9KKPJs6vCWjrM4YqSg4HHw/0.jpg) -=- @pinkyblogger shares with us a strain that he claims to be "one of the most potent social stimulant[s]" that he has had recently. He got it delivered and smoked it prior to a date and says he helped lower his anxiety and allowed them to enjoy a pleasant evening and talk for hours. Thanks for the share. I'll have to keep an eye out for this particular strain. -=- -----

_______________ ## 51% Attacks are becoming Frequent ## https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@myfinanceteacher/51-attacks-are-becoming-frequent Author: @myfinanceteacher Curator: @nicnas ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/0x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmazojFNWPkqzj8nBFeb7rk5sUWStfDbcvbypJ49wsoCPb/51.png) -=- Do you guys know what 51% attacks are? If you own any crypto you might want to look into this. It is something I worried about since I started investing. But the crazy thing right now is that for some of the smaller alt coins people are able to rent enough hashing power (mining power) to be able to control 51% plus of the mining. The potential for attacks here is breathtaking. The well designed coins are going to make it out just fine, in the short term, but the issue is all the smaller coins. This could eventually really hurt the whole market. Check out this post by @myfinanceteacher to get direction on how to find out more. -=- -----
