Each sandwich represented a different crime family, all of which conspired against Popeye's. It's obvious to say that Wood has a solid approach to his social media game.

HONG KONG, July 6 (Reuters) - Macau has locked down one of the city's most famous hotels, the Grand Lisboa, after more than a dozen COVID-19 cases were found there on Tuesday, with infections spreading rapidly in the world's biggest gambling hub.

Despite a steady fall in infections that saw just 27 new cases reported on Sunday, authorities said the city's more than 600,000 residents must stay home, with all non-essential businesses shut, until Friday.

"In a sense it's, 'Here are some ideas that I have for everyone, but I'm probably not the right person to be saying all of them,'" he said. "I will acknowledge that I'm probably not the right person, and I've also done some dumb shit."

HONG KONG, July 18 (Reuters) - Macau kicked off an 11th round of COVID-19 testing for residents on Monday, as the world's biggest casino hub extended a lockdown of casinos and other businesses in the fight on its worst outbreak since the pandemic began.

The Grand Lisboa is the second casino hotel to be locked down in recent weeks.
Owned by SJM Holdings, which was started by former Macau kingpin Stanley Ho, the Lisboa is one of the city's best known landmarks.

A less destabilizing CBDC proposal wouldn't require a federal account but would involve a "cash card," that is, a card that customers of private banks could use at ATMs to load up on digital cash instead of paper money. "Just like paper money, if the holder lost that card or had their wallet stolen, the card would have value on it that anyone could use," Peebles said. 

"Social media is me, but only in my happiest and purest form. For the most part, if you go through my social media feed, I don't express anger. I don't express disappointment. I consider those emotions to be private. And so more often than not, I'm just not going to fucking talk about those things," said Wood. "For the most part, social media for me is a place to unplug."

During our interview, we discuss a number of topics, including video games, cartoon theme songs and his poignant column for The New York Times about his home state, Alabama, and how he's hopeful for its future in terms of social equality and equity. At one point, Wood explained the appeal of playing online VR poker late at night.

Apart from his Daily Show duties, Wood is an accomplished stand-up comic, with two previous one-hour specials under his belt: 2017's Father Figure and 2019's Noboby Loves You. He's also an actor and has been on shows like Space Force, Better Call Saul and The Last OG. And he hosts two podcasts: Roy's Job Fair and The Daily Show's Beyond the Scenes.

What is a central bank digital currency? It's the virtual form of a fiat currency -- that is, government-issued money that isn't backed by other commodities like gold or silver. In short, a CBDC is just the digital form of a country's official currency. As nothing more than a computer code, these currencies could be stored on central ledgers within a country's national bank or on a distributed ledger the way private cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are.

CBDCs could help unbanked households As of 2020, 5% of US adults, or roughly 16 million individuals, were unbanked, meaning they rely on nonbank products and services for cash, according to the Federal Reserve's 2020 Survey of Household Economics and Decisionmaking. Underbanked rates were higher among Black and Hispanic adults and those from historically excluded and low income groups. For those who have bank accounts, it's already possible to set up direct deposit with the government for federal money like tax refunds or stimulus payments. With a CBDC, the Federal Reserve could make such funds instantly available by depositing them into a digital wallet, regardless of whether the person had a bank account.
