EMV is a standard protocol for credit cards and debit cards.
Beforehand, such cards used a magnetic stripe to store information.
This approach has two main problems: first, the amount of data that can be stored is relatively small.
Such a card can store about 1024 Bits, or 128 bytes.
The second problem is bigger: the data stored is not encrypted.
Using a card with EMV technology, also called a "chip card" for the shiny, metallic "chip" on the front, can solve both problems: it can store much more data, and the data can be encrypted.
Payment cards that use chips have been in use since the early 1990s.
Beforehand, each card issuer had their own protocol.
With EMV, the protocol has been standardised.
The first version of EMV was published in 1995, and there have been different versions since then.
It was adopted in Europe before the United States, which required all new cards from 2015 on to have EMV chips.
How do EMV cards work?
Payments using EMV technology is often called "chip and PIN".
This is because to use such a card to make a payment at a cash register or point-of-sale terminal, the card first needs to be inserted into a small machine called a "payment terminal" or "PIN pad", with the side where the chip is on facing up and towards the machine.
Once the card is inserted, it is left there so that the terminal can read the data stored in the chip.
The terminal will often ask the user to confirm the amount of the purchase or refund, choose the account in the case of a debit card, and will then require the user to enter a personal identification number (PIN).
This number makes sure nobody other than the owner of the card can use it - if the wrong PIN is entered a certain number of times, the card is locked and cannot be used.
Once the correct PIN is entered, the terminal will contact the bank to authorize the transaction.
The bank will either "approve" (accept) the transaction, or "decline" (reject) it.
Once this happens, the person removes his or her card from the terminal.

Mill Ends Park (sometimes called Mill's End Park) is a small urban park.
It is located in the median strip of SW Naito Parkway, approaching esplanade along the Willamentte Rivera near SW Taylor Street in downtown Portland, Oregon, United States.
The park is a small circle  across.
It is the smallest park in the world.
This fact was included in the Guinness Book of Records in 1971.
The park was dedicated on St. Patrick's Day 1948, as "the only leprechaun colony west of Ireland".
It was created by Dick Fagan.
In 1948 the site that would become Mill Ends Park was supposed to be the site for a light pole.
The pole did not work and weeds began to grow.
Fagan, writer for the Oregon Journal, planted flowers in the hole.
He named it "Mill Ends", after his column.
Fagan died of cancer in 1968.
It was named the official city park in 1976.
The small circle has featured many unusual items since its creation.
These include, a swimming pool for butterflies (complete with a diving board), a horseshoe, a piece of the Oregon Journal building, and a small Ferris wheel.
On St. Patrick's Day, 2001, the park was decorated with leprechauns.
The park continues to be the site of St. Patrick's Day festivities.
The events held there include concerts by Clan Macleay Pipe Band, picnics, and rose plantings by the Junior Rose Festival Court.
In March 2013, the park's tree was stolen.
Law enforcement planted a replacement tree.
The next day, a passerby found the original tree lying next to the new one.

A volcanic plug is a landform created when volcanic magma hardens inside a vent on an active volcano.
They are sometimes called volcanic necks or puys.
The plug is revealed when surrounding land is eroded.
As it forms, a plug may cause an extreme build-up of pressure if gas-charged magma is trapped beneath it.
This sometimes leads to an explosive eruption.
But if the explosion does not occur, then the volcano becomes a solid block made of hard material.
The plug is usually harder than the surrounding rock.
Glacial erosion can lead to exposure of the plug on one side, while a long slope of material remains on the lee side.
Such landforms are called crag and tail.
If a plug is preserved, erosion may remove the surrounding rock while the erosion-resistant plug remains.
This is what produces the distinctive upstanding landform.
Left-wing politics is usually progressive, meaning that left-wing people think the government should help make social change happen.
They believe governments should try to create more social equality and economic equality.
Right-wing people tend to say the government should not make social change happen.
Sometimes, they say the government should stop things from changing or even make society go back to the way it was in the past (or the way people think it was in the past).
The far left has Communism and Socialism.
The far right has Fascism.
The left and right groups get their names from the French Revolution.
People in the National Assembly who wanted large changes in the French government sat on the left side of the room and people who wanted to keep the king and more tradition sat on the right side of the room and moderates sat in the middle.
French newspapers started saying "left" and "right" to tell readers which member of the National Assembly thought what.

A boutique is a small shopping outlet, especially one that specializes in elite and fashionable items such as clothing and jewellery.
The word is French for "shop".
"Boutique" was an everyday English word in the late 1960s when, for a brief period, Swinging London was the centre of the fashion trade.
Carnaby Street and the Kings Road were the focus of much media attention as the most fashionable boutiques of the era were there.
Today, boutique may refer to a specialised firm, such as a boutique investment bank or boutique law firm.
The word is often used to describe small private hotels, to distinguish them from larger chains (such as Hilton Hotels).
In such cases the term suggest their operation is elite and highly specialised.
Recently, the term "boutique" has started being applied to normally-mass-market items that are either niche or produced in intentionally small numbers at very high prices.
This may be referred to as boutique manufacturing.
For example, a Time Magazine article suggested that Nintendo could become a "boutique video-game company", producing games for niche audiences, rather than trying to compete directly with Microsoft and Sony.

John Newbery (9 July 1713 – 22 December 1767) was called "The Father of Children's Literature".
He lived and worked in England.
He was the first book publisher to print lots of books for children such as A Little Pretty Pocket Book and The History Of Little Goody Two-Shoes.
The Newbery Medal is named after him.
He also published books for grown-ups.
Some of the writers for grown-ups whose books he printed were Christopher Smart, Oliver Goldsmith, and Samuel Johnson.
John Newbery was born in 1713.

After some time, William Ayers sold his printing shop to William Carnan.
William Carnan also taught John Newbery how to be a printer.
In 1737 William Carnan died.
When he died, he gave the printing shop to his brother Charles Carnan and also to John Newbery.
They shared the shop and worked together.
Two years after William Carnan died, John Newbery married a woman named Jordan Mary.
Jordan Mary was William Carnan's wife before William died.
Jordan Mary and William Carnan had three children before William Carnan died.
Their names were John, Thomas, and Anna-Maria.

Soon he started to print books for children.
The first children's book he printed was called A Little Pretty Pocket-Book.
He started printing it on July 18, 1744.
It cost six pence, or English pennies.
A person who bought A Little Pretty Pocket-Book from John Newbery could also buy a red and black toy ball from him for two more pennies.
The toy ball was made of cloth and stuffed with sawdust.
Children who read the book could stick pins into the ball.
They stuck a pin into the red side of the ball when they were good at reading the selection.
They stuck a pin into the black side of the ball when they were bad at it.
This made them think about whether they were being good or bad.
John Newbery thought this game with the ball would encourage the children to be more fluent when reading.
Many people liked A Little Pretty Pocket-Book.
It had a bright colored cover.
It was small enough for children to carry in their pockets.
It had poems and wise sayings and an alphabet song printed in it.

John Newbery did not just sell books.
He sold many things.
One thing he sold was a patent medicine.
It may not have been a good medicine, but John Newbery wrote about it in the books that he sold, and so people knew its name and bought it when they were sick.
When he was old, John Newbery was very rich.
He used his money to help writers who did not have enough money to live on.
Two of the writers that he helped were Samuel Johnson and Oliver Goldsmith.
Both of these writers wrote stories about how good John Newbery was.
John Newbery died on December 22, 1767, in Islington.
