Is anybody out there?
Maybe just a dry patch during the change of seasons? I wouldn't be so worried but I just had a look at Ewens blog and he has only 1 comment, mine, for the last couple of days. This coming from Mr. blogopular who normally gets 20 comments.
Now I'm thinking twice about uploading my lastest video I took of an open leg sore that was going to be titled "Does this look infected to you?"
Anyway, I hope you'll all come back when you can. One thing I really wanted to ask, seriously, is does anybody else have trouble when logging on to Robert Song's or Tugerranong Don's blog? Cause 9 times out of ten when I visit these blogs my computer just shuts down seconds into reading. While it always boots itself back up I don't understand why it does this and only to these two blogs. It's been like this with Roberts blog for 8 months and TD's for about 6 months. I can only comment on them at the computer at work my home one doesn't want to view there work for some reason.
Anyway, let me know if you know. And if you're caught under a overturned bulldozer and can't blog at the moment I fully understand ;)
16 comments:
I must say I never read my own blog but have just tried it and I have no problems. Also no problem with TD.ReplyDelete
Thanks for spaing us the flesh wound!
I think blogger is just a bit slow today at timesReplyDelete
I'm out there reading the blogs but just rarely find the time to put a comment up nowadays.ReplyDelete
Hoping that once this baby comes out (Wed) I will find some quiet time and have some more interest in running.
Presently I am just jealous of all you runners out there and the highs/lows you are all going through. So see - that's why I am not commenting :)
PS. Please put a warning up if you do choose to post the um gangy leg photo/video!!!
Bloggsville is quieter. I reckon its because a lot of us are too busy playing in Facebook. I think you should come and join us :-)ReplyDelete
Re the booting out, I quite often have a problem with Iliketoast's blog, and sometimes yours. Wierd.
Good trick Scott. Looks like you fleshed out Clairie.ReplyDelete
Both Robert Song and Don's blogs use the same template. I checked and there are numerous CSS errors with that template. On some browsers/computers these errors could cause the display or crashing problems.
Yes, I am out hereeeeee. And noooooooo, I haven't got time to play with Facebook. Regarding my lack of comments on that post, perhaps it's because politicians are as offensive as open wounds ;)
Well, you ultimately displayed good judgment about that photo. I guess I'd better re-think my plan to post the photo that says "Does this look like epididymitus?"ReplyDelete
Yes, maybe things are a bit quieter in Blogsville. I know I have fallen back to weekly updates simply because it was taking up a bit too much time to post daily and also I was worried about boring you, dear reader, as well as myself.
Wow, Clairie is going to drop her load on Wednesday??!! How excitement!
Hey that's one way to get a few comments. And just as a point of interest - I would have looked at the open wound photo!I have a weird interest in such things but have nearly fainted at the vets before.ReplyDelete
I generally don't comment on the videos as I don't always watch them because our internet is so slow (we have satellite broadband and it plays up). I'm more interested in your words Scott!
Hello! I'm still here too. I still read blogs but rarely have time to comment. I have enough trouble keeping up with blogs, there is no way I'm moving into Facebook too!ReplyDelete
I am sorry, I read often, but don't always comment- please don't post the photo, I will comment more often I promise, just not photo. Hope the 12 week count down is going well and you are feeling strong. (I have been on Facebook but it comes a distant second when it comes to finding out how everyone is going with their running)ReplyDelete
I'm here too! I promise to try and be a bit more active now I'm building back up the running.ReplyDelete
I'm very pleased you decided against showing us the infected leg wound.. I've just had my dinner.
Cool! Thanks for getting in touch. I feel better knowing that everyone is still reading, at least.ReplyDelete
But I have had a lot of unwanted mail of late. Spam that is addressed to me by name like the following I got tonight it reads: No shit!
"Greets scott
the girls will be at your finger tips if you add 3 inches" and it leaves an email contact.
Now I'm just wondering why girls would like me more with long, 3inches longer, fingers?
Any ideas girls? ;)
Yes, blogsville is quite - I can see the tumble weeds rolling down the street. But, I'm reading, just no time to write! I attribute it to the end of year madness to get the last bits of work done. For example, I only have 3.5 weeks of time in the office because of workshops, conferences, and finally, annual holidays!ReplyDelete
I promise to come back soon.....
3 inches! You mean they're offering you a 100% increase? Go for it Scott! A guaranteed way to increase your blogopularity ;)ReplyDelete
"3 inches a 100% increase" Ha!ReplyDelete
There you go again Ewen judging others by your own standards ;)
I'm here too - slowly making my way through a backlog of blogs (backblogging?) - tried facebook - way over-rated!ReplyDelete

Florian gives us some personal insight in Entry 13 of From Beta to Blunder.
Entry #13
PVP. Before temploiters. Before mod stackers. Even before most people had enough XP to be a master in their combat class. PVP was part of the experience from the very first day. Personally, I joined the Rebels because my friends did, and as a rule we were generally overt at all times. Early on, I held my own. I was nothing special, but I had my moments. Eventually I'd be completely outgunned and outclassed by the hardcore PVP community… but at the start, I was sure to be involved daily. After the Kimo hunt on Lok earlier that day, Flo's business partner (and real life friend) Alistea asked if we'd like to participate in a raid on Bestine. Having just joined the Rebellion, I thought it'd be a nice change of pace… so along with my buddies, I joined the group. Ali's plan was put into practice multiple times prior to this moment. She had it all worked out. We flew from Nym's on Lok to Mos Eisley on Tatooine, and then from there we shuttled into Anchorhead. When I arrived, there was a sea of Rebels on the premises. Anchorhead was a tiny settlement, even smaller then Wayfar I think… but they had a shuttle, which is more then I could say for Wayfar at the time. It was my first time being there, but I saw some familiar faces. People were running faction missions, the cantina was bustling, and some guys were just hanging out catching up. All in all, this place was packed. As I stood there I started to grasp that while "my thing" was being out in the woods or the unpopulated deserts, other people spent their time in bustling PVP hubs.Alistea walked over to a few guys I've never seen before, and together they created the plan. When she came back over, she explained the task. There would be a multipronged assault on not only Bestine, but Theed as well. Our group consisted of about 15 people, but we coordinated with the other group which was about 15 people as well. Group 2 shuttled to Mos Eisley, and as they did, Group 1 (my group) walked from Anchorhead to the outskirts of Bestine. The second group let Ali know when the ship to Theed arrived, and when it did, we stormed Bestines Starport. The true goal was to hold Theed as long as possible, and to do that, our group was to make sure that no Imperial made it out of Bestine, so they couldn't help the battle at Theed.Zox and I had 3 Rancors between us, and we got to test them in PVP for the first time ever. The moment Imperials were in range, we sent the pets in ahead of our group. The Imperials were mostly overt, because they were running faction missions prior to our arrival. When we showed up, they were completely caught off guard. My job was to gank anyone using the bank, and to prevent anyone from using the shuttle that lay adjacent to it. I also had a clear view to the cloner, the cantina, and the starport. Ciale and Rampage stormed the med center, and Ali, Florian, and the rest camped the Starport itself, inside and out. In about 5 minutes the bulk of the opposing army was killed and covert. We got word that the Theed assault went over just as well, so we had both Imperial epicenters of the galaxy in check. This type of disruption would be typical in the early days, as both Rebels and Imperials constantly would make their best effort to prevent the other side from mastering their professions. To stop the other side from getting too strong, you had to stop their xp gain.
From the Florian Files –
The Battle of Bestine was part of the first large scale rebel attack on the Empire… From what I remember, it was totally organized by word of mouth at the Theed spaceport. One rebel whispering to another. Eventually a comm channel was opened, and a multi pronged assault was put together.
Alistea, I feel was always a go-to pvp leader. She held down the force at Bestine, calling out troop movements, warning of incoming imps etc…. The kimo hunt on Lok was really eye opening for her I think; suddenly the power of group movement became very apparent. She basically took what Vroflus was doing to Kimos and applied it to the empire…
Zox may have had two Rancors, but there was no way he was going to raise them faster then I'd raise Ballrog. You can see that Zox had a giant Womp Rat too, that thing was about as big as a baby Rancor at the time. At this point, Florian was a full time buddy. Everyone really liked him and Alistea, so we all made sure to include one another in any of our plans. It didn't take much convincing to get him to come grind XP on Lok, so we spent a lot of days hunting Kimo together. We still had big Kimo hunts, but they were usually down to about 5 or less people, because it was better XP in a smaller group. You were also able to get thousands of hide or bones instead of having to share in a bigger group. Around this time, some people had to start dropping scout in favor of elite professions, so it meant more harvesting, and more XP, for yours truly.

One of my all time favorite screenshots. The pets were tanking, Zox and I were mid distance, followed by the Trans guys (riflemen) at maximum range. A dead Kimo rounds out the picture, illustrating just how we operated by that time. You can see the blast from my FWG5 caught on camera. It was a great gun, the vast majority of the Pistoleers preferred it, and the Weaponsmiths couldn't pump them out fast enough. A good speed slice would have you pumping out steady DPS without drawing unwanted aggro. Zox and I fought side by side since beta. By this time, we would line up together without even thinking. I'd extend this habit to the battles I fought with Florian as well.There's something awesome about being in a firefight right next to a close friend. It's not just the fact that you can drop heals on one another at any given time. For me, I would queue up some special attacks, turn the hud off, and zoom in close. I'd see the looks on our faces, or the explosions coming out of our guns. I'd move the camera in every direction possible, looking for the perfect angle for an unforgettable screenshot. Often times I'd end up compromising the integrity of battle, because I was too busy looking at my group, and not spending any time looking at the mobs.People would sometimes ask why I was crawling on the floor looking up at them instead of participating in the fight. I guess now they'll all know. Maybe instead of being a middleman in the SWG EMU, I'll be the official camera man. A story teller to chronicle the entire launch, creating a novel, page for page, for everyone to read, centering around the people that make the galaxy spin far and wide. A SWG EMU in game journalist… This is the type of approach I give a game like pre-cu SWG, because SWG is so open that you can treat it however you want. Yeah you have 34 professions (including pilot) to choose from. But I made a 35th in "Middleman," and why not make a 36rd in a "Galactic Journalist?" It's probably been done before. You are never bound by anything in SWG other then your imagination.

One CH, his Rancor, and someone tanking. I was on the cusp of being able to solo one of the most feared creatures in all of the galaxy. Two manning a Kimo as a Pistoleer was a fairly easy process. You send the pets in to gain aggro, you send in the tank, and you sit back and fire away. Sometimes I'd have to heal the pets or the guy who went in head first, but generally I just tried to maintain an even DPS as not to attract any of the Kimos attention. It would not be long before I was out there on my own doing this by myself for hours on end.

Corellia. Honestly I didn't spend too much time there, although Coronet was a huge Rebel hub, not to mention a general connecting flight to most adventure planets. Nosun and Warbucks lived on this planet, so I occasionally stopped by one of their houses as well. Generally, I tried to stack errands, so when I got to this planet, I'd hit the cantina, hit Nosuns place, hit the Middleman contacts, maybe tame a Slice Hound for someone, and then head off planet. The Coronet Starport was cool, because tons of people had to use it to connect to the rest of the galaxy. You'd very frequently run into your pals while waiting 10 minutes for the ship. Also, you can see that Homer was almost full grown. As a fighter, he was not preferred. As a companion, he was irreplaceable.
Tuesday, July 15, 2003, 2:27:44 AM (ScreenShot0266)
I remember being blown away by the water in SWG. The way it met the shores on Corellia was artistically inspiring. You'd think a fish would swim super fast, but it's not the case, and I really don't know why. It didn't stop me from taking the frequent dip though. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see the water too much, because anything I needed done on Corollia was usually taken care of by Nosun for me.
Tuesday, July 15, 2003, 2:55:55 AM (ScreenShot0268)
"So what do you think Nosun, feel like making a lil extra cash?" It's all there in the chat. This is how my deals were born. Nosun was especially critical because he would do the running around, being my face to the public. In some cases, I didn't actually meet the person I was dealing with, he went entirely through Nosun.
Tuesday, July 15, 2003, 2:57:25 AM (ScreenShot0269)
Florian did a good job of ironing out the pricing and logistics of the transactions with me. At that point it wasn't really "my" operation anymore. I had a trusted network of friends, they all knew their specialties inside and out, so no one really needed any guidance. If it was pet or harvest related, it defaulted to me or Ramp. Anything mining related went to Flo and Ali. Nosun would do the running around, and as time went on, the deals got bigger, and he'd end up getting paid thousands for making 30 minute runs. I think he actually started to parcel out some of his runs to Warbucks, who needed the extra cash.
Tuesday, July 15, 2003, 2:58:00 AM (ScreenShot0270)
And that's how Nosun really got involved. I think Flo only used him as a currier a couple of times. Florian was too social a guy to not see his clients face to face and iron out the details. I'm pretty sure him and Ali made a killing both before and after they met me. Sure I helped them make some contacts like Darkghosty, but they were well established before I met them. If anything, they did me a huge favor by giving me the access to their bulk mined goods, something I had no idea about, to plug into my trade schemes.
From the Florian Files:
In the early days, as a young fish, I remember taking a walk in the suburbs of Coronet, and being awed by the batteries of mineral extractors (the small ones at that point). As young idealistic rebels, my friend Alistea and I hatched a plan. We would start up a mining operation of our own to fund the rebellion… As budding pistoleers, we couldn't afford to devote to a crafting profession, our combat skills would deteriorate as a result. Plus, if we could get some really choice minerals for weaponsmiths like Smith N' Wesson, Stry'ker, or Dominous, then maybe we would have first dibs on some sweet weaponry. Our first minerals came the hard way; we mined by hand, taking core samples repeatedly over choice deposits in hard-to-reach places. These small amounts of metal were enough to sell on the bazaar, and in turn, we raised enough capital to buy our first true extractors. Now, let me say, sampling by hand is extremely arduous; so running to hard-to-reach locales to construct our mines was no problem!We were small, even in those days; however, small meant flexible. We would constantly be surveying for new deposits. Even in the middle of a gun battle, Alistea and I were known to kneel down and pull a core sample or two… In those days, we ventured to planets like Yavin and Lok (you could even build on Dathomir in the early days), placing our extractors in places no one would dare go. These efforts paid off. We came to discover that most of those giant fields of extractors on Corellia were in fact just pulling junk minerals for grinding. Our 20 extractors were pulling top-grade ores that weaponsmiths and armorsmiths were paying top dollar for. Those little mines eventually went on to fund our guild, The Guardians of Lok.Vroflus became our middleman, connecting us to slightly lesser known smiths, who often times were left out of the mineral market. Specifically, big (imperial) weaponsmiths went out of their way to corner the market, persuading miners to sell all of their minerals to them. Connecting with the smaller rebel smiths enabled us to contribute to the rebel cause on a more personal basis (bigger smiths made miners sell to vendors).
Nosun became a very reliable courier after the meeting pictured in Vro's last post. We even entrusted him to unload our mined ores and transport them to various customers. His help was tremendous in those days. As my contacts grew, my free time shrank… These kinds of relationships were what Vroflus was all about….

The Wish-Fulfilling Jewel
- The Practice of Guru Yoga According to the Longchen Nyingthig Tradition
— by Dilgo Khyentse
In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, devotion to one's guru or spiritual master is considered to be of the utmost importance in spiritual practice.
The instructions of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, based upon the teachings of the great eighteenth-century saint and visionary Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa, focus on the devotional practices of Guru Yoga, "Merging with the Mind of the Guru".
Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche (1910–1991) was a highly accomplished meditation master, scholar, and poet, and a principal holder of the Nyingma lineage. His extraordinary depth of realization enabled him to be, for all who met him, a foundation of loving-kindness, wisdom, and compassion.
A dedicated exponent of the nonsectarian Rime movement, Khyentse Rinpoche was respected by all schools of Tibetan Buddhism and taught many eminent teachers, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama. He tirelessly worked to uphold the Dharma through the publication of texts, the building of monasteries and stupas, and by offering instruction to thousands of people throughout the world. His writings in Tibetan fill twenty-five volumes.

I knew where I was going with my life as my senior year of college wound down: basketball was my future. There was no alternative idea, though I was prepared to do the things necessary to survive until I got into my career.
1. I attended a pro exposure camp.
2. I got my video from said camp.
3. I put the scouting report from the camp, along with my video, together into a player resume/profile.
4. I reached out to agents with my profile to see if any were interested. One guy was.
5. I was working full time during this period.
6. I worked on my game with a schedule, like it was a second job.
7. I applied for a passport months ahead of time.
8. I kept in touch with my agent regularly.
9. I signed.

am nineteen years old guard am currently enrolled in a chatered accounting inst. am a Ghanaian. i wanna know if pro basketball is viable for african players. well things are enormously different here. There are no active college nor high school champs here. Pro basketball has always been my ultimate goal but it seems almost impossible thanks to what we have here. YOU INSPIRE ME DRE REALLY
My son was a juco All-American and averaged 20 points per game. Now, he's playing D-1 basketball. However, he's only averaging 8 points per game, but led the team in steals and was 4th in scoring. He could easily average more points per game, but the coach plays a half court style of basketball and calls set play's just about every possession. Would this hurt his chance of getting a look from agents or over seas teams?
Where can I find an agent?
This is now my 2nd agent going on 2 years with no job ready to throw the towel in what should I do
What exactly is a pro exposure camp and where are some I can attend or the one you attended.
How did you get the names and phone numbers of agents to find one who can help? I'm coming out of high school to play D2 and I'm only 5'10 and white lol. I averaged 28 PPG along with 5 APG and was nominated to the McDonald's all American team. My dream is to play pro, but I don't know where to start after college is over besides using these steps
Thank you so much for all this helpful information!
Is there any way I can contact you
Thanks for all the info about what to do to play overseas and about the exposure camps. I'm going to follow all the directions and do what it takes to play the game I love for a living. We have similar stories and I know if you can do it so I can. Thanks for the inspiration.
The man with the plan !
may God help us all

CRM software cost often varies based on factors like the number of users and features. Typically, small business plans start from $12 to $20 per user/month, while enterprise plans usually come by quote. Many vendors also offer free but pared-down versions, while some of them, especially HubSpot CRM, offer 100% forever-free CRM software.
In today's cut-throat business landscape, securing a deep and lasting customer relationship is where the money is. This is among the reasons why CRM software is today's biggest software market, whose set of powerful tools have been proven to effectively improve sales productivity for many companies. However, with so many CRM vendors to choose from, companies are also faced with the challenge of calculating the actual CRM cost for their business. The situation is not helped by the fact that most vendors use varied pricing models.
So, how much does CRM software cost? In this guide, we've made an in-depth analysis of the payment policies of some of the leading CRM providers in the market today. We'll reveal details about the four major pricing models of most CRM software solutions, including the payment methods and a comparison of several pricing schemes. The goal is to unearth key insights on how CRM tools are priced to help you make a sound decision in selecting the best CRM software.
Over a decade ago, Harvard Business Review correlated the cost of CRMs with the benefits they provide and foresaw a bright future for them, at a time when these systems still required installations so expensive that only large enterprises could actually squeeze out some profits using them. As businesses continue to increase their technology investment, one survey found that almost half of businesses are expanding their spending on CRM, customer service, and related technology, not only due to competition but because their sales are indeed picking up because of its use.
In general, CRMs are priced per user on a monthly basis. So basically, to calculate your monthly CRM expenses, you just multiply your CRM's basic cost by the number of users in your company. On the average, CRM vendors offer basic plans that include the key features of CRM, and premium packages that combine the basic features and advanced functions like sales analytics and automation.
As you'll see in this article, CRM pricing is varied broadly, although pricing schemes tend to fall into four main categories: free, single-payment, fixed-monthly, and quote-based. Still, the best way to know exactly how much you'll spend is to talk directly to the vendor of your choice. To help you out in coming up with a list of suitable vendors, you can check out our 15 best CRM systems for your business. In this way, you can better allocate your resources, especially your budget.
Most CRM vendors nowadays offer their products on a fixed monthly or annual price, usually with several plans available to cater to the needs of small, medium, and large businesses. The exact amount depends on how many users or contacts you wish to involve communication channels you're looking to manage, and the type of deployment you're interested in (cloud-hosted CRM systems are usually cheaper, with average prices varying between $50 and $100/user/month, while in-house CRMs will have you to pay between $250 and $1000 per single-user license). For some of them, you will also be able to purchase add-ons and functionality plugins or participate in dedicated customer success programs to help develop smarter customer relationship strategies.
A recent trend is to build up plans with different sets of features, and let the user decide whether he wants basic functionality on a starter price or a fully-featured platform branded as 'Professional' or 'Advanced.' The best course of action with these products (or any CRM in general) is to check whether the vendor offers a free trial/demo and compare packages on your own. Unless stated otherwise, trials and demos are free of charge and usually don't require credit card data or any long term commitment.
The most popular pricing basis, nevertheless, is still the size of the purchasing company, as developers are well aware that not every tool can be configured in detail to cater to all companies. There are, of course, one-stop-shop CRMs with almost unlimited customization that you can tweak to the specifications of your brand. Still, they are usually offered at a single price that equals a small fortune for startups and growing businesses.
The logic that applies, in any case, is to go as far as your budget allows: professional CRMs do make sense to developing businesses that can afford them. Another thing to remember here is to check the availability of customer support – in certain cases (reputed companies in particular), access to professional advice is reserved for premium users only.
A good example that can help explain fixed pricing works is the plans of one of the most popular CRMs out there: Pipedrive. At the moment, the system is offered in three different versions (Silver, Gold, and Platinum), each priced according to the targeted market tier.
What is typical here, users can choose to pay for the subscription on a month-to-month basis or commit to an annual subscription for reduced prices. The pricing mentioned above is based on the annual subscription plan. The month-to-month cost of the Silver, Gold, and Platinum plan is at $15/user/month, $29/user/month, and $59/user/month, respectively. Similar pricing is available for other popular CRMs such as:
Quite often, you will come across 'by-quote priced CRMs', and unless you have experience negotiating software deals, you may dismiss the idea of purchasing a potentially reliable product just because of it being 'overly complicated' to acquire. However, quote-pricing is among experts' most preferred and recommended payment solutions, predominantly because it shows that the company offering is flexible and that it is ready to compromise. Basically, if you ask them how much does CRM software cost in their case, they are more likely to offer an answer you will like.
Quote-priced CRMs are suitable for all businesses but don't discuss specific prices and payment details. Instead, the vendor invites interested users to contact his sales professionals, share the details of their company (in particular their expectations of this software), and then tailors a unique price for the functionality they can afford. For instance, a startup service provider may purchase a single-channel CRM, instead of paying for a rich omnichannel platform that also reports, generates leads, and covers collaboration capability for large and decentralized teams. Put into perspective, this means you should approach your CRM choice with an exact list of wishes and preferences.
Certain providers develop detailed growth plans for midmarket businesses and gradually increase the number of features in order not to burden their budget's capacity too much. In cases like these, it is of vital importance to give systems a test drive first with a free trial so that you will know exactly what to ask for.
To explain how custom pricing works, look at Yotpo, where customers are asked to contact the vendor's sales personnel to get a personalized quote for their business. The easiest way to do that is to submit a request on the vendor's website, entering basic information about your company. The same approach was adopted by tools such as Siebel CRM and WakeUpSales.
This option is usually reserved for in-house and on-premise CRM suites that target large enterprises with plenty of homegrown software solutions. With an excess feature suite and an open API architecture, these solutions won't exactly cater to the needs of small and modest businesses, as they involve expensive installations and hardware purchase, and usually, put users through long training to obtain the coding knowledge necessary to associate them with other systems.
In terms of payment, these solutions are usually covered with a user license; you only need to purchase one time. Prices for these licenses vary from $1,000 upwards, depending on the reputation of the provider and the functionality of the system. In certain cases, the license has to be renewed each year/established period and consequently costs less ($200-$800 a year, on average).
InfoFlo is one of the several popular single-payment CRMs. Its users are expected to cover a license priced fee at around $99 for the InfoFlo Basic plan for its core products. Depending on the features you need, you can opt for add-ons at additional prices ranging from $79 to $99. Other CRM solutions with similar plans are ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus, which is available in 3 editions and GoldMine Premium (offers pricing that can be amortized in over three years).
There are also open-source CRM platforms that are offered free-of-charge, but in most cases, their functionality is basic and demands that the user switch to a paid plan once his operations expand in size or complexity. The user gets to choose between popular CRMs that also offer paid plans you can upgrade to as your needs grow (EngageBay, Insightly or Bitrix24, for instance) or a CRM that is entirely free, such as HubSpot. These systems require no credit card details or long-term commitments, but we do recommend that you read some expert evaluation for each of them to see if they match your business's needs.
In case you're running a small business or are still not sure what to expect, opting for free CRM solutions is definitely a good option. For developed businesses with considerable client lists, however, it may be better to look for a professional and affordable system.
The best example of a powerful and completely free CRM is HubSpot CRM, where all features and support are available at no cost. Some other CRM vendors offer free-of-charge packages in addition to their standard paid plans. These include Freshsales (Sprout Plan for managing and basic scoring of leads and contacts, and unlimited phone and email support is available for free) and Insightly (a no-frills plan for 2 users to get started with managing contacts, sales, and projects).
Monthly payment is typical for cloud-hosted systems with fixed pricing schemes, but may also apply for quote-priced ones (check details with the vendor). What it means is that the user is expected to cover a monthly fee to use the product, with or without an annual subscription contract that would prevent him from shifting to another package or system. The reason why most customers consider annual subscriptions as an alternative to month-to-month payment is that they significantly reduce the price (10-25% on average).
Alongside annual subscriptions, certain CRM providers offer per-annum licenses, which users cover for at the beginning of the year, and are not expected to meet any monthly fees until that year is over. These licenses usually cost between $200 and $1,000 and are more common among locally hosted systems than cloud-based ones (here, the rationale is that a user should pay only for as long as the service meets his needs and quality criteria). The drawback to annual payment is, of course, that you pay for the whole year in advance, and if for any reason you decide to resign from using a given CRM, you will lose money. If you already decided to stick with a particular vendor, though, an annual plan will usually let you save some money in the long term.
As we've discussed previously, in house CRMs are usually offered against a lifetime license, which also carries the responsibility for a user to update and maintain the system on his own. For large teams and international enterprises operating with sensitive data, this is definitely a more affordable option compared to month-by-month payments for premium and advanced suites. The prices of these licenses come down to several thousands of dollars, depending on the size of the company or the functionality it is about to acquire.
Most CRM providers support credit card and wire transfer payments, while some of them also accept checks and direct bank transfers. Make sure you've checked all additional fees and charges required by the service provider, and choose the option that is most secure and affordable.
The cart of the HubSpot CRM buyer
HubSpot CRM is a common winner in the 'which software to buy' debate, as it is offered absolutely for free, yet goes beyond the expected 'basic CRM kit.' The application of this system is also not limited to retail businesses, but rather fits all users in need of customer intelligence. If you intend to get an intelligence collecting system that doesn't exclusively cater to sales management needs, you can save the bucks you'd invest in Pipedrive or any other paid CRM system.
What will you get for free?
HubSpot doesn't offer the same sales management functionality of Pipedrive. However, you can still rely on basic pipeline tracking, phone, and email integrations, or connect it with other leading CRM and marketing systems. Despite being free, HubSpot CRM has some of the world's best data enrichment functionalities, including a powerful and fast leads backlog users can easily master in no time.
Another reason to consider HubSpot CRM is that it organizes and tracks your contacts automatically. You get to manage as many as 1,000,000 contacts and users, and more importantly – your storage capacity is not limited at all. Similarly to paid systems, HubSpot CRM integrates with leading social media and ensures you will have the chance to target larger audiences. Unfortunately, HubSpot CRM still doesn't offer an advanced reporting kit to analyze the data it collects (it relies on third-party integrations instead). The list of integrations with other software providers is long, but there is no open API for the user to count on custom integrations.
On top of that, HubSpot CRM offers phone support to all users, regardless of whether they've just started to use the tool or are longtime clients. You can also use it on all devices and types of business venues, but unlike Pipedrive, it doesn't support multiple languages and currencies.
The cart of the Salesforce CRM buyer
Software development history will reveal a number of top-notch vendors that 'burned' in their own desire to go beyond their capacity, but that's not the Salesforce case. If you are already using some of their products, or have at least heard of their beneficial effects, you'll see no other reason but also to use the genuinely powerful CRM tool they provide. The question, however, remains the same: is the system worth what you'd pay for it?
How much will you pay?
Just like Pipedrive, Salesforce CRM charges on a per-user, per-month basis on an annual subscription. The main difference between the two is that Salesforce CRM limits the number of users you can include in each of the plans. Storage and access to support channels, nevertheless, remains the same for each plan.
There are four plans available. The most basic starting plan Salesforce offers is Salesforce Essentials available for $25/user/month, where you can include only 5 users, and obtain a fairly basic accounts & contacts management suite. This plan is packed with out-of-the-box CRM features you need to get started in managing leads, customers, and sales.
For more functionality, you should look at the Lightning Professional plan ($75/user/month), which is a complete CRM solution for any size of your team. It offers more functionality in configuration, collaboration and cross-selling and upselling.
An even better, but significantly more expensive platform is the Lightning Enterprise plan $150/user/month), where functionality is extended with the Sales Console app, with its accurate sales forecasting, and real-time sales insights. This is also the plan where you obtain a credible Salesforce identity, private AppExchange, and access to web service API that help connect the tool with third-party software other than email service providers.
The most expensive plan available is the Lightning Unlimited plan ($300/user/month), packed with enterprise-grade contact management features, Sales & Service Cloud Consoles, sandboxes, and unlimited custom app development.
Salesforce CRM offers a really well-tailored plan for companies coming from each market tier (startup, small, medium, and large businesses).
Note that Salesforce CRM also offers Cloud Lightning and Service Cloud Lightning upon request and for an additional fee.
The cart of the Pipedrive buyer
Pipedrive is undoubtedly one of the 'look no further' CRM systems for companies that can afford it, and that's justified with a robust feature suite and spotless functionality.
What forms the package-to-package gap in Pipedrive's case is storage and email import, as the number of users is unlimited in all packages. Pipedrive plans are all priced per user, so the decision whether to assign a single user or 50 of them is completely up to you.
How much will you pay?
The lowest plan available is the Silver Plan, where businesses are charged $15/user/month ($12.50/user/month for an annual subscription). Higher plans cost $29/user/month ($24.20/user/month billed annually) for the Gold Plan, and $59/user/month ($49.17/user/month billed annually) for the Platinum Plan.
In all three cases, users get a full sales management package (multiple pipelines, personal revenue goals, customizable pipelines, fields, and activities), chat and email support, and mobile apps.
The Gold plan offers more advanced automated workflows such as a full conversation history and the ability to send and view emails without leaving the platform. On top of this, the Platinum plan adds a dedicated private environment for your sales data and live phone support.
Since it's already established that a CRM is something that every business today must have, the next pressing step is selecting the most suitable CRM platform for your business. But with so many CRM tools to choose from, the challenge now is on how to rummage through the wide array of choices. In choosing a CRM system, you must have a selection checklist on hand to help you select the CRM tool that directly aligns with your immediate and long-term goals.
Vendors usually have teams of highly effective sales and marketing specialists to promote their CRMs, so the burden of selection rests on the shoulders of the business owners, who must, in turn, prioritize the needs of their business. In this regard, we've prepared these key questions to consider when selecting which CRM platform to choose:
These considerations are not exhaustive but are enough to get you started on the right path toward selecting the right CRM for your business. Finally, in case you still haven't made any selection yet, why not start with one of the best CRMs. You can sign up for HubSpot CRM free app.

The Mineral That Saved My Life – Part 1
The Mineral That Saved My Life – Part 2
I can't tell you why I did not consider the possibility that I was being attacked by bacteria or a virus when I first encountered my illness months earlier, but for some reason I changed my thinking, in part because I had no other choice. If it was a bacteria or a virus that was proliferating through my body, in particular my extremities, I could take the only thing I had brought with me that could possibly help, and that was Angstrom Silver.
Silver is famous for reducing and killing bacteria and viruses and I'd brought 1.5 ounces of liquid Angstrom Silver (200 ppm), which meant I had one ounce left or less than 2 capfuls. I took the first capful of liquid silver, holding it under my tongue for about 5 – 6 minutes, which was long enough that most of the liquid disappeared from my mouth. Holding the liquid under your tongue is an excellent and efficient way to consume any Angstrom mineral such as Silver. The minerals enter the bloodstream through the sublingual duct under the tongue which allows them to enter the bloodstream directly and therefore much more effectively.
As soon as I finished the first capful of Angstrom Silver I felt that whatever was attacking had been stopped from proliferating. Within 3 hours of taking the first capful of Angstrom Silver I felt substantially better. I took another half of a capful of Angstrom Silver hoping to knock it out once and for all. My strategy worked. Five hours after I had taken the first capful of Angstrom Silver I felt great. My legs stopped aching, as did my neck and shoulders. In that short amount of time, 3 hours, the pimples on my legs were receding as was the festering sore above my ankle. I was truly amazed.
Since I rarely get sick with a cold or flu I never used Angstrom Silver by itself. Silver is one of 26 minerals in the full spectrum blend that I use daily, although I didn't have any of that with me in China. By taking the Angstrom Silver that day I learned a tremendous lesson, in fact several of them. Trying to be the healthiest person I can possibly be my life has become nothing less than an endless procession of lessons on health.
Of course I was perplexed as to what had made me so sick over the summer. Me, of all people, studying to become a Naturopathic Doctor, crippled by illness just like anyone else, just like the average person who lives on a cooked food diet and not someone who strives every day of his life to be healthier. The suffering I experienced during the summer was intense and unrelenting. So many thoughts ran through my mind during that week. I wondered how a person who is entirely unenlightened about health must feel when they experience the kind of pain I was experiencing then. At times I felt completely helpless as I'm sure they must feel as well. I was completely lost as to what I could do about it that summer.
Other than poisoning and subsequent detoxification that would ensue I had no clue what could be making me so ill that summer. I knew I would be detoxifying because I was water fasting, consuming only raw juices, including shots of powerful foods such as ginger, turmeric, horseradish and garlic. It helped, but it was 7 days before the attacker ran its course and I felt better.
But after what happened in China, I know it was a bacteria or a virus that had been attacking me then because when I consumed the Angstrom Silver it soon receded from my body and my health returned. There is no possibility of a placebo effect given the severity of the illness, the damage it was causing to my body and how immediately it all ended after consuming the first capful of Angstrom Silver.
I consumed the remainder of the liquid Silver the following day, taking no more than 1/8 of a capful under my tongue for as long as possible. I relished the last drop the following morning. My trip to China, a place I had badly wanted to visit since 1980, had been saved. I knew at that moment why it had all happened to me, first in the summer and then in China. It was so I could write about my experience and tell anyone who would listen that the world's endless plagues of bacterial and viral diseases should never be feared because of a mineral called silver and the angstrom form it should be consumed in.

Turmeric is a spice that's been used in East Asian and Indian cooking for ages, but recently has reached mainstream popularity for its anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits.
The taste of turmeric can take some getting used to, but here are 10 easy and delicious ways you can add turmeric to your diet every day.
Note: It's best absorbed when paired with black pepper.
1. Tonics
I first started making this tonic about a year ago when I felt a cold coming on, and quickly got addicted. Now I make this every morning and drink it right when I get up to hydrate, wake up my digestive system, and allow my body to also wake up (lemon and cayenne will do that for you!).
Try this: 1 L warm water, 1 tbsp ACV, 1 tbsp lemon juice (you can also use 1 packet powdered lemon or 2 slices fresh lemon), 1 tbsp raw Manuka honey (optional), turmeric, cayenne, black pepper (all to taste)
The Juicery also makes a homemade fire tonic that is an immune booster packed with nutrient powerhouses including turmeric. Pick up a shot or 9 oz bottle in your local Juicery today!
2. Juices
Turmeric plays well with other orange foods. If you have a juicer and fresh turmeric root on hand, play around with different combos.
Try this: DIY at home or BYO at the Juicery — ginger, carrot, turmeric.
3. Golden Milk
Golden milk, to me, goes hand in hand with the concept of hygge (loosely translated from Danish as "coziness").
There's nothing better than to cozy up and unwind with a hot cup of nut milk; it's spiced with warming spices like turmeric, cinnamon, and more.
Try this: "Bulletproof" Golden Milk
4. Curry
Like I said, turmeric is a staple of East Asian and Indian cooking; curry is one of the most popular examples of that.
With just turmeric, garam masala, and a couple of other spices, you can recreate your favorite curries.
Try this: Indian "Leftover" Salmon Curry
5. Scrambled Eggs
Not only does adding turmeric make your eggs more yellow, but it lends a subtle flavor that makes breakfast a little more special.
Try this: Beat 2 cage free eggs lightly with a fork and stir in turmeric, cayenne, and freshly ground black pepper. In a pan, heat up 1 tbsp coconut oil (or oil/ghee/fat of your choosing). Once pan is hot, lower heat to just above a simmer and pour in the eggs. Fold slowly. Remove from heat when 75% cooked; add in pink Himalayan sea salt and more freshly ground black pepper.
6. Nourish Bowls
These give golden milk a run for their money in the coziness game. Nourish bowls are something I created to eat as a nighttime treat or a warming breakfast. Add some turmeric and cinnamon in — it'll warm you from the inside out.
Try this: Turmeric Nourish Bowl
7. Roasted Veggies
Roasted veggies are a meal prep staple. Up your veggie game by adding spices like turmeric before you roast them!
Try this: Easy Superfood Roasted Veggies
8. Smoothies
If you don't love the taste of turmeric but still want to get its benefits, try it in a smoothie! It's the most tasteless form of turmeric.
Try this: If you're at the Juicery, I recommend adding it to the Faster Than Light or the seasonal Pumpkin smoothie.
9. Straight Up Shot
This is the most potent form of turmeric — just take fresh turmeric root and juice it to get a shot's worth of liquid.
Try this: No juicer? Visit The Juicery — they do turmeric shots!
10. Kombucha
Not only is kombucha good for your gut, but the fizzy drink comes in fun flavors too. Get the health benefits of turmeric plus the probiotics from the kombucha by drinking a turmeric-flavored booch!
Try this: GT's Tantric Turmeric Kombucha

On Site Carbon Dioxide Generation
Commercial use of carbon dioxide (CO2) depends largely on compressed CO2 or "dry ice", both inconvenient sources for small users, since dry ice sublimates uncontrollably and compressed CO2 requires heavy, thick-walled containers, in addition to valves and regulators. A more convenient, on-site, source of CO2 would benefit users for applications such as green house growers, hydroponics/aquaponics, as an attractant to monitor/manage various insects including mosquitoes and for the "on-site" production of CO2 for the creation/maintenance of anaerobic environmental conditions in cell culture chambers or as a gas source to dispense a variety of fluids, such as fragrances, repellants, insecticides, etc.
Med-e-Cell has developed technology and products that are specifically suited for these applications. The technology is based on the electrochemical stripping of CO2 from carboxylated organic acids. A preferred chemical is oxalic acid, a stable solid, containing 97.8wt% of CO2. It is virtually pure CO2 without the inconvenience of uncontrolled sublimation. It can be stored for long time periods.
(The annual world production of oxalic acid is about 300,000 metric tons. The product is quoted fob production factory at 700-800 USD/ton).
The electrolytic process can be carried out at current densities exceeding 2 amp/cm2, at single cell voltages of less than 1.5 volts, corresponding to generation rates of about 0.1 kg CO2/cm2-day. The CO2 stripping process is conducted to completion i.e. the solid oxalic acid progressively disappears until a clear solution remains. Since there are no side reactions the total weight of CO2 produced can be predicted from the start-up weight of the oxalic acid feed or from the expanded amp-hours.
Since the cell voltages are stable, the CO2 generation rate can be either voltage- or current-controlled. Start-up is instantaneous and the generation rate responds instantaneously to current changes. A considerable advantage over compressed CO2 is that no gas metering is required, the correlation between current and generation rate being always respected.
The energy consumption is less than 0.6 kilowatt-hours per kilogram of CO2. The same process can be applied for the generation of minute amounts of CO2 (cc/hr) as well as much larger quantities (tons/day).
Med-e-Cell has developed a process to manufacture single cells up to 10 cm2 in active surface area and to assemble multiple cells in stacks operating at up to 10 amps and DC voltages of 3, 6 and 12 volts.
Developed initially to provide a convenient CO2 source for monitoring/managing mosquitoes, the generators have been tested by USDA/ARS as a tool for vector control. The product, Moustiq-air™, capable of producing CO2 at a rate up to 300 cc/minute, can be viewed on the Internet. It was first introduced to vector control professionals at the American Mosquito Control Association, 2011, Austin, Texas. The same technology can be implemented in commercial mosquito abatement products to replace conventional propane combustion burners.
Currently, Med-e-Cell is developing a product, SuperGroCO2, (see Internet) aimed at providing simple, easy-to-use, CO2 sources for enhanced plant growth, i.e. by increasing/maintaining the CO2 concentration at a 1250 ppm level in greenhouse enclosures. Prototypes will be available during the first quarter of 2013.
These "on-demand" systems can competitively replace conventional compressed CO2 stored in high-pressure cylinders. Similarly to bench-top oxygen and hydrogen sources they can be also developed as bench-top "on-demand" CO2 sources for anaerobic chambers.

The pace of innovation has been hectic in the past few years with the surge of new disruptive technologies such as Blockchain. The blockchain potential in financial services is huge and can be considered as one of the main drivers for substantial cost saving in this arena.
Nowadays, it can be seen how the broad adoption and integration of blockchain is becoming a practical solution in the B2B marketplace.
Fund transaction network Calastone plans to move its entire network to blockchain technology in May 2019 via its new Distributed Market Infrastructure (DMI). As reported in December and June last year, there have been talks and preparations for this migration of more than 1,700 financial organizations across 40 markets.
Blockchain was tested by the firm in 2017 to buy and sell mutual funds, after which the firm said that the results were satisfactory, using multiple data centers and clouds to protect the system.
Calastone believes that the overall global cost of fund distribution could be reduced by as much as £3.4 billion, achieved through the technological mutualization of the trading and settlement processes.
Julien Hammerson, chief executive of Calastone, said:
"The current system for transactions was economically and operationally unsustainable."
Campbell Brierley, Calastone's chief innovation officer, comments:
"By bringing all trading relationships together, within our shared blockchain-enabled infrastructure, all participants benefit through the real-time view of each record and powerfully, from a data perspective, a single version of the truth."
He also added that this alleviates common friction points such as reconciliation and settlement.
In reference to the big industry transfer to blockchain network, Andrew Tomlinson, chief marketing officer at Calastone said,
"The more you can automate, the more you de-risk, you more you streamline, the more you speed up."

In honor of international women's day, Barbie made the highly empowering decision to release 17 new dolls that are based on the ultimate female role models throughout history. They've previously released a hijabi Barbie and other nods to diversity and inclusion. This is just another step that makes Barbie, a sometimes criticized brand, a truly feminist company that has evolved in modern ways.
Barbie acts as a lifestyle and career role model for young girls all over, so having renowned female heroes grace stores will be a game-changer for putting girls in charge of their own narratives and letting them know that they really can do anything the my put their mind to.
Each doll, belonging to the set known as "Inspiring Women", wich come with educational background info on how those women specifically shaped and changed history. Some of them include Frida Kahlo, Amelia Earheart, and contemporaries like Chloe Kim, Ava Duvernay and Ashley Graham.
A survey put out by Mattel came to learn that 86% of mothers, out of a control group of 8,000 moms, were concerned about what role models their daughters were looking up to. This line-up of dolls will hopefully quell those worries and create more female leaders.
We think this is a step in the right direction for brands that may have previously been guilty of subscribing to gender norms and stereotypes, placing the woman as a pretty housewife or a
carefree beach house babe.
But the release is controversial – a lot of people are upset that the representations of these heroic women are adapted to look like conventional beauties and Barbies rather than celebrating them in their own right.
For instance, Ashley Graham's doll doesn't look that plus sized, and they erased Frida's famous unibrow. Do you think that Barbie is making moves in the women's revolution, or are they just another attempt at marketing feminism while still keeping the brand's old aesthetic?
Personally, we're happy that something is being done by a big corporate brand like Mattel, and even if the dolls aren't 100% perfect, they're still real role models that girls will hopefully Google and be inspired by in their own day-to-day lives.
People will always find a fault with some new trend, but regardless, it's hard to deny that this is a massive step forward for woman-kind.

Guess who was mediating in the conflict between the sectarian militias of Badr and Mahdi? None other than the "secular-liberal"--that was how the US press referred to Ahmad Chalabi prior to the US invasion--Ahmad Chalabi. He was negotiating on behalf of his ally, Muqtada As-Sadr.

Eremophila decipiens (Slender Fuchsia Bush) - A low sprawling shrub to 3 to 4 feet tall by as wide with interlacing square stems bearing narrow 1 1/2 inch long slightly wavy lance-shaped leaves that are serrulate near the tips. Over a long period from late summer through late spring (nearly year-round) appear the reddish orange nearly tubular 1 inch long flowers held on a long thin S-shaped (sigmoidally curved) pedicel. The flowers have a lower lip recurved under and 4 petal lips recurved upwards with stamens well exerted beyond. Plant in full sun to light shade in a well-drained soil and requiring little to no irrigation once established. Cold hardy to around 25� F. Responds well to pruning. This is a showy long flowering and reliable shrub that requires little care and is a great addition to a perennial or dry garden and also useful in containers. Unlike many other Eremophila that are insect pollinated, this species is pollinated by birds and is quite attractive to Hummingbirds. This is a selected form of Eremophila decipiens ssp. decipiens, a taxon that grows naturally over and extensive area from the south-west of Western Australia east to southern parts of South Australia on the Eyre Peninsula. The name for the genus comes from the Greek word 'er�mos' meaning "lonely" or "desert" and 'ph�los' meaning "dear" "beloved" in reference to the plants in the genus growing in arid climate locations. The specific epithet is a Latin word meaning "deceiving" or "false" in reference to the similarity of this species to Eremophila glabra, which differs in not having the "s-shaped" pedicel. Another common name for this plant is narrow-leaved fuchsia bush. We first received this plant in 2017 from Kathy Echols at Midhill Farms. Information on this page is based on research conducted in our nursery library, from online sources, as well as from observations made of this plant as it grows in our nursery, in the nursery's garden and in other gardens where we have observed it. We also will incorporate comments received from others and welcome getting feedback of any kind from those who have additional information, particularly if this information is contrary to what we have written or includes additional cultural tips would aid others in growing Eremophila decipiens.

Situated in Cape Town's Constantia region, Eagles' Nest is a Boutique Wine Farm originally part of Groot Constantia, established by Simon Simon van der Stel in the late 1600's. Boasting some of the steepest vineyards in the Cape Winelands, ranging from 100m – 400m above sea level, these granite and clay slopes are planted with Shiraz, Merlot and Viognier to produce handcrafted wines.
The proximity of the wine farm for Capetonians is an added boost and the views are quite unexpected for a city farm. Furthermore the only breeding pair of Verreaux's Eagles (Black Eagles), in the Table Mountain National Park, nest on the property. A viewing platform has been created for nature enthusiasts.
Visit Eagles' Nest for to sample their award winning wines, accompanied by a selection of platters, served on hope garden furniture of course! In the Tasting room you will find our square bistro table with florence chairs and trestle benches. The square bistro table is a favourite with restaurants and wine farms as tables can be pushed together when required. The oiled finish was their preferred finish for wine and food spills. This finish is best for indoor or covered areas.

Katrina Kalergis-Loukas was born in Waverly, grew up in Maroubra and eventually moved to Kingsford. She went to Rainbow Street Public School in Randwick, and eventually Randwick Girls High School. Katrina was born to migrant parents who were from Greece, and as a result Katrina could only speak Greek on her first day of School! She recalls that she used to sit on the teacher's lap at school and as a result learned to adapt to different cultures and new ways of learning.During her schooling, Katrina's love of the spoken word found expression through her student council presidency, school debating team and Toastmasters Youth Leadership practice. School definitely allowed her to learn how to push boundaries and speak up for herself– one of the great products of being from such a large supportive Greek family! She has always been outspoken, and feels her upbringing has given her a natural inquisitiveness that makes her question authority, and find new ways of doing things regardless of how it's always been done. Katrina is a natural born lifehacker.Katrina went to the University of NSW and studied Electrical Engineering, but after a year realised she really didn't enjoy it, so she changed her degree to a combined Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics and Education – because for her, mathematics was always her art form, 'the poetry of numbers', as she calls it. After graduating, Katrina started teaching in high schools, but due to the restrictions of the curriculum, found she couldn't teach the kids how she wanted to – her philosophy of questioning everything, and finding new innovative ways of working didn't suit the system. In addition, Katrina has always thrived on self-learning, research and challenges, and she felt teaching just didn't give her what she needed to feel she had purpose and expand on her mathematics aptitude.After leaving teaching, Katrina went into IT / Software training, and was working in Desktop Support. During this time, she got married and had her two children. When her youngest was 2 years old, Katrina decided it was time to start learning again, and completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Biostatistics, Data Science and Analytics at Sydney University. She went into creating statistical and mathematical models for health based economics, research and evaluation – where she eventually lead small teams, presented on her methodology and wrote many reports on her findings.In 2007, Katrina landed her dream job at a Not for Profit in a Government funded company that specialised in quality use of medicines. One week into the job, her life was ripped apart. Katrina's sister Georgina was killed in a boating accident at Captain Cook Bridge. The tragedy of losing her sister really rocked her to her core. She started questioning life, and as a result her marriage started breaking down.During this time she became interested in Psychology and Holistic Counselling and did a Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy. She went on to start a Psychotherapy practice, a YouTube channel, wrote empowering poetry and self-published a book. She continued to work on herself and went through a journey to self-actualisation which resulted in realising what her talents, strengths and weaknesses were. Lifehackers Institute, the Shire's first 'innovation agency', was born.Katrina now helps her clients move their businesses into the 21st Century. She does this by consulting and training in: data analytics, innovation, people development and levity strategies. Her focus is providing business owners and their staff the skills they need to transform their businesses into the digital age. She is passionate about helping them ride this current wave of disruption with data-backed certainty and unimagined innovation. Whether complex or simple, her solutions provide for business growth, while removing the risk of the most common form of business failure in the last 10 years: complacency. Katrina has written a couple of blogs for the ShireWomen Community, and we recommend you read them – they are fantastic reads!

Official U.S. Capitol Christmas tree will stop in San Antonio for viewing opportunity
San Antonians will have a chance to see the Christmas tree that will be set up at the U.S. Capitol in Washington for the holidays.
The 60-foot Blue Spruce will stop by The Alamo on Nov. 16 while en route to its final destination.
Each year, a different national forest is picked to provide the tree for the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol. The Carson National Forest has been tapped for this year's tree provider. The New Mexico Tourism Department and Choose Outdoors will transport the official tree from New Mexico to Washington, stopping in more than 25 communities along the way.
The free and open-to-the-public event at the downtown landmark is set for 5 to 7 p.m. The tree is expected to arrive at 6 p.m.
RELATED: 14 of San Antonio's best cups of hot chocolate
Holiday revelers will be able to take advantage of a few interactive opportunities including the chance to sign banners on the side of the truck, learning more about The Carson National Forest and shopping U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree merchandise. Hot chocolate will also be served for the first 250 guests. Santa will also be on hand as well as other "family friendly" activities.
After the tree rolls through town, the 2,000-mile trip will continue through the country, culminating with the official tree lighting on the West Lawn in early December. The tradition dates back to at least 1964, according to the Architect of the Capitol website.
San Antonio's own local tradition of an Alamo Plaza Christmas scene will begin on Nov. 30, when the tree is set up and illuminated. Travis Park's H-E-B Holiday Tree Lighting celebration, which moved from the Alamo in 2017, will take place on Nov. 29, with activities starting at 3 p.m. and the lighting ceremony at 6 p.m.
