Finding software can be overwhelming. Software Advice has helped thousands of businesses choose the right CRM software to better manage and monetize their customer relationships.
Customer relationship management (CRM) software helps automate and manage the customer life cycle of an organization. It is usually used by the customer-focused side of businesses to maintain contact with customers and quickly respond to their needs.
Customer data management. Most products provide a searchable database to store customer information (e.g., contact information) and relevant documents (e.g, sales proposals and contracts). While most CRMs offer this functionality, it can also be incorporated into other industry-specific systems. For example, customer management is a core component of salon management software.
Interaction tracking. CRMs document conversations held by phone, in person, through live chat, email or other channels. These interactions can be logged manually, or automated with phone and email system integrations. Some systems can also track interactions on Facebook, Twitter and other social platforms.
Workflow automation. This standardizes business processes, usually through a combination of task lists, calendars, alerts and templates. For example, once a task is marked as complete, the CRM system might automatically create a task for the next step in the process.
Reporting. Management can use CRM tools to track performance and productivity based on activities logged in the CRM system—for instance, how many new contacts were added to the database that day, or how much revenue was generated. These tools can also be used for forecasting, such as for the next-quarter sales pipeline.


This week is an all new show with an all new format and is a jump into creativity. If you've listened before you know that it used to be myself and my co-host Katie Hendricks. Katie and I had a great time doing the show and it was time for us to end that iteration and now I continue on with a new creation. Some things will remain but somethings are definitely going to be different.
This week we are talking about the true essence of creativity and the reality that we are all making everything up. You can listen to other shows where I've talked about this topic in a different way too. Shows 82 and 34 are great to listen to if you want more.
So, creativity…everyone is just making everything up! And what happens when we leave our preconceptions behind? And is there a process we can use to support a team's creativity and our own? So many questions that we will attempt to answer in this week's show. This week's show is really all about leaving old paradigms behind.
We start with a premise that I first heard from the great Steve Jobs. You can listen to him in this video. Out of the many quotes attributed to him, this is my favorite. We first need to recognize that everything truly is being made up and yet, we often find ourselves trying to find the magic bullet. The one thing that will solve all of our issues or that will allow us to be as smart as everyone else. In business we want to be effective and we want to find the processes that work.
But our world is ever changing…we don't think it is but it is…right under our feet. And life seems to have a way of interrupting our "routines". Entropy is always occurring and everything is being broken down. We need to harness our creative problem-solving and even find conscious ways of disrupting our routines to find the opportunities. In the show you can hear a couple of clips from an interview conducted by Daft Punk of Giovanni Giorgio Moroder too that adds to the concepts here. We need a vision to pull us.
Implementing (creating options for implementation).
In between each stage is the application of "non-judgment" and at every stage in this process notice that it starts with "creating options".
And this requires us to leave a lot of our preconceptions behind. Oh, and one more awesome discovery from his research…homogenous teams do better with the creative process than homogenous ones…diversity of thought really matters in the creative process.
What are some preconceptions you need to let go of right now regarding an issue you are wanting to solve? And, how do you support creativity with your teams?


So, I'm following March Maddness from over here in Scotland. But with a twist – I'm looking at from the perspective of the Academic performance of the athletes. I wrote a post about the Academic Tournament yesterday and today I want to share with you the story of one faithful woman shepherding a team to the finish line.
I have an immense respect for the commitment and service of many nuns. I was educated at a school founded by the Order of St Joseph – an order begun by an Australian woman, Mary MacKillop who will be canonised by the Catholic Church later this year as a Saint. The 'brown joeys' as they are known have left an extraordinary legacy in primary (read: elementary) education in the eastern states of Australia.
I'm not talking about an Australian here though. I am talking about Sister (Dr.) Rose Ann Fleming, who has been an Academic Advisor at Xavier University since 1985. Since the 5 foot 4, 77 year old nun took over the role, she has graduated every single player who played in his senior year. That's 77 players. Apparently, she oversees the 2 hours a night study hall, and the schedules and assignments of every single player. She wakes them up before dawn, stops practices and knocks on their doors if they miss a meeting, fall behind on assignments or reading. I did mention she's been doing this for 25 years right?
Oh, and did I mention that in 1991, the coach named Fleming the team's Most Valuable Player and in 2000, she was inducted into Xavier's Athletic Hall of Fame.
She has lived on campus since 1983, when she was teaching at Xavier, in a dorm that for a long time housed the men's basketball team.[…] She rises at 4 a.m. for an hour of prayer and meditation. Then she usually spends an hour or more at the computer, often researching law cases that she takes on for Volunteer Lawyers for the Poor. (A law degree is one of several she holds, including Master's degrees in English, business administration and theology, and a doctorate in education administration.) She exercises on an elliptical trainer, lifts weights and swims. Daily Mass is at 8. By 8:30, she is usually in her office, overseeing two other full-time advisers and two volunteers who help her track Xavier's 271 athletes in 17 sports.
This description of her day inspires me. Her obvious faithfulness is an incredible witness to me of the way she serves those around.

So, what's missing? We need a character whose parents split up after a long time, preferably because the father had a prolonged secret affair. We need something to be, sarcastically, a "barn burner," and we need someone to ask if you've fallen on your head. We need a season one finale that will actually answer the question "What Kind of Day Has it Been?" We need a character whose younger sibling died, and who blames him/herself for it in a repressed way. We need legs that go all the way to the floor, and Shakespeare the way it was meant to be played. We need to make someone happy by coming home at the end of the day. We need someone writing a letter because something that was supposed to have ended (tennis match, filibuster), is going on way too long. We need someone "raising the level of debate." We need smart people who disagree with you. We need a fight over the supposed significance of an anniversary. We need, when the fall is all that's left, for it to matter a great deal, and we need to know that the fact that we want to please you, pleases you. We need underwear in an inappropriate place. We need you not to talk to us like we're "other people." We need someone complaining about the lack of admonishment from the clergy over religious violence. We need people accidentally saying the wrong word to someone important, then obsessing over it. We need Josh Malina.
Of course, when you're as good as Aaron Sorkin, we let you get away with it.

you know, it might get buried under the mountains of new posts I'm always putting up…you know.

My dearly beloved daughter, so many will not listen to My Voice, because they do not know Who I Am. Many claim to know Me, but it is only by their flawed human interpretation that they are convinced that they understand Who I Am and what I did to save them from the abyss, which faces all God's children, who will not ask Me to forgive them.
Free will is a Gift from My Father. Free will can, however, interfere with man's quest to seek the Love of God. Yet, My Father gave His children this Gift. This is how generous He is. This is how much He loves His children. This is the Gift that gave them the freedom to roam the Earth, relish its fruits, and embrace its beauty. But man, tempted by Satan, abused the trust of My Father. He then became enslaved by Satan and forged a pact with him, where sin will continue to separate all of God's children from Him.
The Gift of My death on the Cross meant that I would break this unnatural bond between man and Satan. So I enabled man to seek salvation through the forgiveness of sin, by My death on the Cross. This means that man has the capacity to escape the grip of Satan, but only those who follow Me, in full humble servitude, can truly gain salvation. Unless you are capable of declaring to Me, Jesus Christ, openly, your weaknesses, your sins and your hatred of one another, through reconciliation, you will not remain pure. Without purity of soul, you are not capable of becoming humble in My Eyes. When you lack humility, pride will flood your soul and you will sin against Me. When you sin against Me, you do this in a number of ways.
You will feed your lusts, greed and pride first. Then you will behave as if you are all knowledgeable, smarter and better than others. Then you will judge others. Then you move to the next stage. You will mock those who are in true union with Me, by declaring them to be imperfect. After that you will create slander against all those who remain True to Me. Yet, you will convince yourself that you are filled with the Holy Spirit. But, it will not be the Holy Spirit, which inspires you. Instead, it will be the spirit of evil, which will invade your soul, and you will believe that you are being guided by Heaven.
When you say you represent Me and that you are better placed than others to be part of My Kingdom and then lie about Me, you need the prayers of others. By that stage, you are halfway into the depths of Hell and without My Intervention you will be lost.
Take My Message. Press it close to your heart and ask: "Jesus is this You? Am I truly in need of Your Help?" and I will give you the answer.

I'm searching for the Changshou or Fukushu kumquat tree to buy but haven't seen them at the nurseries in central and south florida. Most of them have the more popular Meiwa and Nagami type. Does anyone know of a nursery in Florida that has Changshou (Fukushu ) ? I'm willing to drive 3-4 hours for pick up.
Bump. Still looking for this kumquat. Does anyone know what of a nursery in Florida that has the Changshou or Fukushu kumquat ?
I could be wrong but I believe all citrus in Florida must be purchased in the State and you are not allowed to graft your own any longer.

The Medialab Prado venue was pretty much perfect: hacking space, auditorium, workshop space, open until late, and an endless supply of good coffee. The presentations were life-streamed, but there appear to be no recordings available yet.
First, Timothee Giet gave his workshop on Krita Sketch. Unfortunately, what with slow network, it turned out to be quite hard to make sure everyone had Krita Sketch on their systems, so in the end, the workshop became more an "install and get introduced to Krita" workshop, which was pretty cool, too — since the workshop was early on Thursday, and it meant many people had Krita on their system for the rest of the week!
That evening (or afternoon, for the Spanish among us, the days were long this year, with presentations going until well after Dutch dinner time!), Boudewijn presented the Krita Foundation. As regular readers of Krita news know, the Foundation was created to support Krita development.
This was closely followed by Timothee Giet speaking about Krita Sketch, how the project came to be, the goals, the gui design and his role in the development. This is what Krita Sketch looks like these days, and an update on Intel AppUp is expected soon!
The next day, Ramon Miranda gave a lightning talk on the Muses DVD he is preparing. Slated to be ready for Akademy in Bilbao (Ramon's hometown), the dvd promises to be wonderful, not just teaching Krita, but teaching the fundamentals of digital illustration. Pre-order your copy now!
The pre-order price is just €27.50, including shipping. The DVD is expected to be ready for presentation at Akademy 2013 in Bilboa, Spain, July 13th.
Or read more about in the bilingual (Spanish/English) Flyer we handed out at LGM!
Also on Thursday, David Revoy gave his Krita workshop. starting with the basics of calibrating your tablet and creating an ergonomic setup, David continued teaching the fundamentals of underpainting (make sure you use only one, big, round brush, work in grayscale, never use the extrems of value available, switch between eraser and normal all the time, paint values, not symbols and remember this: it's painting that's a hard skill you need to work on, applications are easy to learn), and then coloring and detailing. There were some very pretty things made during this workshop!
The great thing about the Libre Graphics Meeting is, of course, getting together. There are developers, artists, thinkers, users. People are working on magazines, typefaces, music, generative art, illustrations, comics, layout tools and more. And it's a great place for teams to get together and start a cooperation initiatives, like the new brushpack resource specification, or ways Krita could integrate with the animation application Tupi or how the MyPaint brush engine could be integrated into Krita, Gimp or Tupi.
Let us all meet again, next year!

C. Mondavi adds imported wine brand French Blue
Company will begin importing 2019 vintage of French Blue Bordeaux Rosé and Sauvignon Blanc
KEYWORDS imported wine / mergers and acquisitions / rosé wine / white wine
C. Mondavi & Family, St. Helena, Calif., has announced plans to add imported wines to its product portfolio, starting with the acquisition of the French Blue brand from Flying Blue Imports. According to Gomberg-Fredrikson imported wines made up 28 percent of the wine purchased in the United States, and C. Mondavi & Family is poised to start benefiting from this market share, it says.
"We are excited to take this step to expand our portfolio in the import space. We believe strongly in the future of our wine brands even in the midst of a year affected by COVID-19. French Blue is a great brand with excellent wines from Bordeaux, and we feel they have great potential." said Judd Wallenbrock, chief executive officer at C. Mondavi & Family, in a statement.
According to Ryan Kepler, senior vice president of sales at Flying Blue Imports: "We're excited to be working with C. Mondavi & Family. They are a powerhouse in the wine business, with a truly energized salesforce, and we look forward to working with them to grow the French Blue brand."
The initiative to import French Blue is a strategic new step for C. Mondavi & Family, a family business that began more than 100 years ago and has developed into one of the most iconic names in American wine, the company says. This will be the first time that the group has ventured outside California for any of the wines in their portfolio, marking a move that will likely attract a new set of consumers from around the country.
"The addition of French Blue to our lineup is incredibly important for us, as it will bring our wines to an audience of drinkers who normally reach for imported wines. French Rosé continues to grow strongly in the U.S., and French Blue can compete with anyone in that category," said David Brown, senior vice president of sales at C. Mondavi. "The past four months have forced us to innovate in a number of different ways, and this will be one of the many steps we take to remain at the forefront of the industry."
Indeed, with much of the world still under the constraints of the coronavirus pandemic, there has been an extra urgency for evolution from those in the industry — especially from vignerons themselves, who have seen many sales from their on-premise accounts dry up in the past number of months, the company says.
"Having the C. Mondavi & Family team behind us means I can focus on making the best wines possible while they focus on growing the brand," said Stephanie Rivin, winemaker at French Blue.
C. Mondavi & Family will start with importing and distributing the 2019 vintage of French Blue Bordeaux Rosé and Sauvignon Blanc.

St. Francis is a city in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 9,161 at the 2020 census.

History

The area that is now St. Francis was known as "Nojoshing" by local Native Americans at the time that the first white settlers arrived. St. Francis Seminary was established in what is now the city in 1845. The Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi established their headquarters there in the mid-19th century.

Historically, what is now the city of St. Francis was part of the Town of Lake. As large parts of the Town of Lake were gradually being annexed into the city of Milwaukee, residents in the St. Francis area sought to incorporate their community to prevent this from happening to them. A movement to split St. Francis off from the rest of the Town of Lake as a city existed as early as the 1920s, but faced resistance from residents of the rest of the town. Ultimately, the residents successfully voted to incorporate on July 24, 1951, and the result was certified the next day. The rest of the Town of Lake was annexed into Milwaukee in 1954.

The city took its name from St. Francis Seminary, founded by Archbishop John Henni, the first Archbishop of Milwaukee, who placed it under the patronage of Francis de Sales, the first Catholic bishop of Switzerland after the Swiss Reformation.

Geography
St. Francis is located at  (42.969615, -87.876745).

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of , all of it land.

The city is located directly south and east of the City of Milwaukee, directly west of Lake Michigan, and directly north of Cudahy, Wisconsin. Milwaukee's primary airport, Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport, is bordered on one side by St. Francis.

Demographics

2010 census
As of the census of 2010, there were 9,365 people, 4,494 households, and 2,210 families living in the city. The population density was . There were 4,828 housing units at an average density of .

Can I get a diameter measurement on the two circles (earth/moon) on the weight insert? I'm working on a little sm'tin-somethin.
The circles gradually evolved to the larger being an"O" the size of the MIRA and the smaller "o" looking more like an apostrophe. The larger one is shrinking slightly, the smaller one is increasing somewhat to be more like binary suns instead of "O'MIRA". Thus I can't give you an exact measurement yet.
You're talking about the engraving on the top of the board above the arrow keys? I'm looking to do something special with the brass weight insert but I need to make sure the tooling will work for the diameter of the circles.
No worries also, if we want to declare it as a certain amount do we PM someone?
PM ninjadoc. Have a look at the prototype brass weight on the photo album I linked above.
Assuming that you don't want LED's on anything other than the bottom, is this board just simply soldering the switches and programming the board? How customizable is the programming? Can you program for Volume +/-, etc?
Are there any stats to give out regarding the color choices and WK/WKL?
Yeah I'll post some pie charts tomorrow once orders close Winkey and Winkeyless are approximately an even split so far.
Very customizable. This PCB will be using the TX87, Leeku's GUI has great customization options regarding the pcb/rgb lights.
Can you confirm that you received my Order?
EDIT: If there is anybody with a numbered/"first 57" MIRA who would like to sell/give their spot, let me know.
You probably saved the link to the original form, not to link you get at the end to edit (you need to click on the edit button you see after submitting the form, then save THAT address). We cannot send you a link for editing, but if there's something you'd like changed, let me know. You can check your order along with others on a spreadsheet tomorrow.
Thanks a lot - by any chance, are there English instructions? Or is it just simply downloading that app and following it through? I have no idea what any of that means, haha.
If you use Google Chrome to view the page, you can have it auto-translated.
Thank you very, very much. I apologize for all the questions, but last one. Do you have a picture of the exact lunar grey one? I can't seem to spot the lunar grey. Looking to buy it to match GMK hydro, and believe that the grey would match better, but I just love how the blue looks.
Really, really appreciate the help!
I think the Blue will be a better match to Hydro, especially because the Hydro blue is also on the cool side from the photos I've seen. The Gray is supposed to have some military green to it.
No worries, thank you for the help! Ordering right now and I thought I was done with the questions, but I'm sadly not. Is the "extra PCB" so that you can GET a PCB, or is it literally extra (meaning you get two). I want to order the entire kit.
Extra = additional, as in more on top of the one you already get.
You guys, I've been sitting on the fence for like 2 weeks. Despite severe, everlasting FOMO, I haven't come up with spare funds for the Mira, so I have sit this one out. I'm so bummed! This board is awesome. I'll enjoy from afar when you post pics...if I can see them through my tears.
One last attempt: if you're a numbered (first 57) Mira holder and would be willing to sell or give out your spot, please let me know!
put my order in, hope you received it!
Would have been awesome if the weight had some sort of engraving, like the mira logo. If anyone is having this done to their weight please let me know.
I know but I wish "Mira" could have been engraved on the larger circle in the same font used on the front cover.
IN THE NEXT COUPLE HOURS, A LINK TO YOUR ORDER SUMMARIES WILL BE ADDED TO THE OP! PLEASE CHECK YOUR ORDERS WITHIN THE NEXT TWO DAYS AND INVOICING WILL START!!!!
Here is the link to check your MIRA order as submitted! Please PM me if anything looks wrong. The list is sorted alphabetically by username. Shipping cost is NOT INCLUDED!
Those who have submitted an order for more than one MIRA kit should get a combined PayPal invoice.
This information will be added to the OP.
Pro Tip: Get an extra plate.
2. If you ever want to change the layout, or try other switches you can do that without desoldering the old PCB/Plate and just get a PCB and new switches. Two keyboards in one!
This may be good advice, but what I wonder is how common is the PCB and where exactly would I get extra Leeku PCBs (elsewhere)?
I'm in for an extra plate just in case I want a different color. For the purpose you're stating couldnt you also just install hotlites?
You can message Leeku directly on these forums to get one directly from him. Very easy process.
That said, the Mira is A87 compatible, so GON pcbs as well as WKL (not 100% son this one) are compatible as well.
The recent LZ-CLS and Mech27-TKL boards use that PCB as well as the TX-84/87 from kin25, for instance. I don't know about older ones (probably more LZ keyboards too).
Due to the customs fee on shipping the PCB's from Korea to China I have to add $2 per PCB. See the update in the OP.
In the west (Outside of Korea), ie in r/mechmarket especially, kit prices don't differ much from assembled prices and I typically see assembled boards go for much more. My Octagon v1 unbuilt kit sold for less than my assembled kit, for instance.
But yeah, having two plates/PCBs is pretty nifty if you want to have two different setups for the same board, though honestly... You're most likely going to end up favoring one over another and so you'll likely see the other one not be used much at that point.
You can always sell it though.
I plan on using this till the end of time, most likely, so I think you have a stronger point. I will probably just favor one type of switch and go with that (thinking 65 or 67g Zealios). I'm sticking to a full kit (no extras).
This is what we have so far!
And in OTHER NEWS, we have 10 numbered slots that have not been claimed for whatever reason by people who have paid a deposit during the IC phase.
They will be distributed among those who have joined the Group Buy and do not yet have a number assigned to them. I am using Random.org with all the un-numbered usernames pasted in a column to do this assignment.
All of the assigned numbers from 1 to 57 will be added to the order verification spreadsheet soon.
Oh myyyy. This is exciting! I really really hope I can get in on this. Thank you.
Oh, this is interesting. I was wondering, for those already with a numbered slot, can we swap to another opened number prior to the distribution? Just a thought.
Once invoices goes out, there will be no number changing. It's a complex GB as it is, and the weights will be coming along with the kits from the factory. We have orders from many different countries here. So as to not mess anything up as much as possible, there should be no number swapping until stuff gets delivered.
By the way, during the IC, people did try to get specific numbers, so I don't think many will want to trade anyway.
Is there an updated list of who has what limited spot?
Also after looking at the price changes in the PCB could ninja reach out if prices do indeed change. I don't think I'd be the only one who'd be willing to help with extra costs if it's necessary.
The numbers 1-57 will be added to the order verification spreadsheet this evening.
This makes sense. I wasn't going to make it more complicated than it already is. I appreciate the work that went into organizing this GB. I was just asking for those 10 spots that have not been claimed to be open to be swapped.
That is all. Good luck to those who's going to get a numbered spot.
Grey got quite a bit of love, thats good its a really nice color.

There's one holiday tradition from days gone by that is making a comeback this year. It is a sight that we likely saw at our grandma's house when we were growing up. Mine had one and now my mom has inherited it.
If I'm lucky, some day it will be mine, especially now that they are coming back into style. What am I talking about? The adorable little ceramic Christmas trees!
These little trees came in a variety of colors and were decorated with tiny little sparkling lights that would light up a room when the tree was plugged in.
Not all of us are lucky enough to still have one being handed down in our family, and even if you do, maybe you don't want to wait until it gets to you. If that's the case, you're in luck. They're coming back and there are several places that you can get one for yourself this year.
1. Target – These trees are just over 14 inches tall and can be purchased in either a green or white version. They come with multi-colored lights and are donned with a star at the top. They are priced at $30 each.
2. Urban Outfitters – This tree will look beautiful sitting on your mantel, plus it comes with an on/off switch so you don't have to mess with plugging it into the outlet every night. It retails for $69 and is just 17 inches tall.
3. Pier 1 – This little ceramic decoration is an updated version of the classic and can be found at Pier 1. It is a bit smaller than the others at just 10 inches tall and is made to look like the tree is covered in snow. It's slightly a different shape and is covered in clear lights which means that it still gives off that beautiful warm glow that you've come to know and love.
4. Amazon – These beautiful little tree also has a simple on/off switch making it hassle free to set aglow each night. It is the perfect size to sit on your desk, countertop, or fireplace mantel and can be found on Amazon for $39.99 each.
5. Etsy – If you want a genuine piece of the past and not just a replica, take your search to Etsy. There you can find plenty of the classics just like this little 7 inch tree that is a throwback from the 1970s. It is on sell for just $25.
If you are as excited about this vintage comeback as I am, be sure to share this story with your family and friends. These beautiful little decorations would make a perfect Christmas gift for someone on your list too!

SleepTracker is a wristwatch that promises to improve sleep quality (and outlook on life) by monitoring the wearer's sleeping patterns. The watch's alarm wakes the wearer at the best possible time during a user-determined window.
Unlike any other product on the market, the patented SleepTracker wakes you up during a light stage of sleep helping you start your day feeling less tired and groggy. Typical alarm clocks go off at the time you set regardless of what stage of sleep you are in. The deeper the sleep when the alarm goes off, the worse you feel when you are awoken. With SleepTracker, you tell it what time you want to wake up, and then select a window of time for SleepTracker to find your lightest stage of sleep to wake you up.
Because the watch can track sleep patterns over time, it becomes better at determining the optimal moment for waking the user with increased use. According to SleepTracker, waking up at the wrong time during a sleep cycle (such as from a deep stage of sleep) can have effects that last all day long. The company suggests that using SleepTracker regularly will help the user to optimize sleep (provided the watch isn't used to artificially shorten sleep time) and wake up each day feeling refreshed.
SleepTracker works by detecting your lightest stage of sleep within a user-provided window of time to wake you up. For example: if you've set your alarm for 8am with a window of 10 minutes, SleepTracker will wake you up when it detects your lightest stage of sleep between 7:50 am – 8:10 am.

Пипин Мали је био последњи франачки мајордом који је новембра 751. године збацио последњег лењог краља Хилдерика III, чиме је окончана владавина Меровинга и отпочела владавина Каролинга.

Долазак на власт

Родио се 714. године као син франачког мајордома Карла Мартела. 741. по смрти Карла Мартела преузима власт заједно са братом Карломаном. Да би обезбедили легитимитет довели су на престо Хиделрика III Меровинга 743. године, кога су пронашли у манастиру. 747. Карломан се повукао у манастир Монте Касино и власт потпуно препустио брату. 751. на сабору у Соасону, уз подршку тадашњег папе Захарија Пипин Мали добија краљевску круну и збацује Хиделрика III. Хиделрик III је последњи владар меровиншке династије дугокосих краљева, који је при збацивању понижавајуће ошишан и враћен у манастир. Папа је смену династија правдао тиме да је боље да буде краљ онај који стварно влада. Пипин Мали званично започиње Каролиншку династију.

Односи са црквом

Долазак на власт Пипина Малог и Карломана обележен је и сређивањем односа са црквом који су заоштрени за време Карла Мартела због секуларизације црквених земљопоседа. Побољшање одоса је требало још јаче да их учврсти на престолу. Током њихове владавине сазвају се сабори који заводе строгу црквену организацију и хијерархију. Стварају се степенице црквених положаја. Прописује се строго придржавање бенедиктинског статута по манастирима. Сва одузета црквена земља се сматрала још увек црквеном, али је остајала у рукама обрађивача који плаћају цркви десетак, поред оног који плаћају држави -'двојни десетак'. Реформа је имала јаку опозицију, али је остварена учврстивши мајордоме на власти и доневши касније и краљевску круну. Краљевска круна је последица кризе са Лангобардима и заједничких интереса са папом.

Освајања и ратови

Током своје владавине (што као мајордом, што као краљ) освојио је од Лангобарда Равенски егзархат, у савезу са папом Стефаном -{II}-. Поред тога освојио је Баварску и 759. године од Арапа Нарбону и читаву Септиманију, а водио је борбе са Саксонцима. Папи Стефану II 756. године предаје на вечита времена земље Римске области и Равенског егзархата, без обзира на противљење Византије чиме су ударени темељи Папској држави. Од 760. до 768. ратовао је у Аквитанији.

При крају своје владавине је, према франачком обичају, поделио краљевство својим синовима Карлу и Карломану. Умро је 768. године.

Gen 11 | KJV | STEP | And the whole earth was of one language , and of one speech .
25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters. 26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
27 Now these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot. 28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees. 29 And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah. 30 But Sarai was barren; she had no child. 31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there. 32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.

Black-Owned Coffee Brand to Open 100 Cafés in China
Bethlehem Alemu, an Ethiopian entrepreneur and one of Africa's most successful women, is unstoppable. After founding two very successful global businesses, Alemu has most recently launched Garden of Coffee in hopes of allowing the rest of the world to taste hand-roasted Ethiopian coffee. She is planning to expand to China where she is already set to open over 100 cafés!
Ethiopia, considered the birthplace of coffee, is Africa's -- and even some of the world's -- largest producer of the finest specialty coffee beans. For generations, Ethiopians have also passed down unique, traditional crafting techniques in brewing coffee.
Alemu, as an entrepreneur, has always been inspired to bring that magical experience to coffee lovers everywhere in the world. In 2016, she launched Garden of Coffee, a brand that uses artisanal methods to source, process, roast, and pack Ethiopia's legendary coffee beans.
Headquartered at Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, at least twenty artisans do the process by hand and create five types of coffee beans only for personalized orders that are shipped directly to over 20 countries including Russia, Sweden, Germany, and the United States.
Not only does this personalized roasting make out the finest quality of coffee and reduce the ecological footprint from factory roasting, but it also promotes local economic growth through job creation. Through Alemu's footwear brand SoleRebels, luxury leather brand The Republic of Leather, and coffee brand Garden of Coffee, she hopes to provide ecologically and economically sustainable jobs for her community.
Expanding to China
To further expand, Alemu has launched Garden of Coffee in China, jumping at the opportunity brought by the increasing demand for specialty coffee in the then tea-loving Chinese market, alongside with Starbucks, Coca-Cola, KFC, Alibaba, among others.
In line with that, Garden of Coffee will reportedly ship 12 tons of hand-roasted coffee to China in the first year through Suzhou Reyto trading company. Their social media advertisements also hint on soon placing their products on the shopping site, Taobao.
Garden of Coffee is also set to open over 100 café roasteries across China by the year 2022. Customers will also be able to receive their coffee through a subscription service every two or four weeks.
But why China?
With China's fast growing economy, Alemu is hoping that this move will bring about the "fourth wave" of coffee evolution, whereas it focuses more on long-term sustainability and promoting and preserving local ways of farming. With the increasing demand, Garden of Coffee is expected to increase its artisan workers to 300 by the year 2021.
"We are doing this, not only because hand-roasting coffee is an ancient art that we strongly feel is worth preserving and promoting, but because we believe this method of coffee roasting is the key to unlocking Ethiopian coffee's true magical tastes," Alemu told Quartz. "That's the critical distinction."

There's a legend about a merchant who

8 Notable Korreds
Korreds were grey skinned humanoids with short hairy bodies and the lower-body of a goat.[1][3] Their beards and hair were incredibly long and dense, snaking out in all directions. They were rarely known to wear more than a simple pair of leather britches.[3] It was difficult to distinguish between the two korred sexes, as the women grew similarly large beards and manes of hair.[5]
Behavior[]
Korreds were incredibly carefree, boisterous creatures that valued nature and freedom above all else.[3] They were incredibly prideful of their hair.[1]
The hair on the head of a korred was magical, able to be animated and commanded. It was said that their hair would transform into whatever material was used to cut it.[1]
Korreds possessed a mystical connection to the elemental earth that allowed them to sense the movement of the ground, smell out precious metals or gems, and navigate underground tunnels with ease. They were also innately capable of casting spells related to that elemental domain. The spells they were most frequently known to use included conjure elemental, meld into stone, stone shape, and Otto's irresistible dance.[1]
Combat[]
Korred were typically known to incapacitate foes with their magical hair, weaving it into all manner of entangling ropes and snares.[4][3] Some were known to simply leave such entangling hair traps lying around the perimeter of their glens, as the korred viewed actively guarding their lairs to be less worthwhile than the act of dancing and music.[3]
In terms of weapons, the korred often fought with oaken cudgels and iron shears that they carried around in pouches. Though they were also seen to use their impressive strength to hurl boulders at foes.[4][3][1] Outside of combat these shears were used by the korred to cut their hair.[1]
The existence of korreds dated back to at least circa -34000 DR.[7]
In the Year of the Gauntlet, 1369 DR, korreds were one of many creatures in High Forest that united against the forces of Hellgate Keep.[8]
Circa 1479 DR,[note 1] members of the Cult of Voldini stole a translated copy of the legendary Tome of Twilight Boughs from the estate of the wizard Aldaron. Two korreds were among the fey allies they then summoned to cover up any loose ends as they made their escape.[9]
Rumors & Legends[]
Rumors abounded that claimed the korred might have been the original creators of druid stone circles.[3][4]
Society[]
Korred typically lived in scattered clans within wooded hills or the feywild. They ate a primarily vegetarian diet as a courtesy to nature, though they were not opposed to hunting for game when plant-life became scarce.[3] When hunting the korred were known to snare smaller game with their hair, catch fish in nets made from their hair, and kill bigger game with their manipulation of the elemental earth.[5]
Once every week the korred would have a ceremonial celebration for their patron god Tapann the Undying in an isolated hilltop, woodland glade, or clearing. These celebrations always involved dancing and the playing of music with either bone flutes, slap-drums,[5] or harps. To interrupt their dancing on these days was considered incredibly rude and even a cause for violence.[4][3] Furthermore, these dances were more of a magic ritual than ordinary celebration, for they drained the vitality of those who engaged in the dancing and transferred it to their god Tapann. It was quite possible to die from the dancing and elderly korred considered it an honor to go out in such a manner. When the dancing finally subsided, the korred would have a feast and drink wine they had made from woodland berries in large stone vats.[5]
Homelands[]
Around 2,500 korred were known to live in the glades of High Forest and the lower slopes of the nearby Lost Peaks.[10] In Cormyr some inhabited the King's Forest.[11]
In West Faerun some inhabited the Forgotten Forest[12] and the Cloak Wood.[13]
Languages[]
Being so strongly tied with nature and sylvan settings the korred typically knew the languages of dryads, satyrs, centaurs, and elves,[3] sprites, and sylphs.[5] A few were even known to speak the Druidic language.[3]
Religion[]
Korreds usually worshiped the god Tapann the Undying,[14] though the god of satyrs Damh was considered by some to also be their patron god.[15] Korred were also known to be servants of the gods Erevan, Ilesere, Sharindlar, and Sheela Peryroyl.[16] Those living in the Lost Peaks were known to worship Shiallia alongside Tapann.[17]
Relationships[]
Though they were a rather reclusive race, the korred were known to tolerate rangers, druids, and elves.[3] Korreds were also known to consort with creatures of the elemental earth, such as galeb duhr[1] and oreads, the latter of which they were known to occasionally mate with.[18] However, the creatures that korred were most often seen partying alongside were dryads and satyrs.[3]
Korreds were one of the many fey races known to serve the Seldarine.[19] Korreds in service of Sharindlar were also known to inhabit the Merciful Court, her divine realm in Nidavellir.[20]
Usage[]
Many sought out the hair of korreds as it could be used to manufacture ropes of entangling and nets of snaring.[3] Though this was easier said than done, for korreds took great offense at people cutting their hair.[1] Some sought them for their distinct fermented berry wine, as it was said they could be used to brew a philter of love or a potion of human control.[3] While others simply sought them out for their mystical connection with minerals.[1]
Notable Korreds[]
Mockingbird, a female korred who worked at the Mooney & Sons Circus in disguise.[21]

Fountains at Farah in East El Paso will feature 60-80 tenants
"After almost a decade of starts and stops with two different developers, two different owners, and wrangling over city tax incentives, the 55-acre site once housing the city's largest garment factory has finally begun its transformation into a major retail center.
The $70 million, 600,000-square-foot The Fountains at Farah is scheduled to open by November 2013 at the site bordered by Hawkins Boulevard and Interstate 10. The 1.2-million-square-foot, 145-store Cielo Vista Mall is across the street.
Ray Catlin, executive vice president of EMJ Corp., a Tennessee builder specializing in retail centers that is the general contractor for The Fountains at Farah, said this is one of probably three or four major retail centers under construction in the United States. The recession's lingering effects have held back projects, he said.
"Not a lot of these are going up. I'd say this will be one of the premier ones. It will be pretty nice" because of the architecture and amenities, Catlin said.
Catlin said EMJ wants to get as many local subcontractors involved in building The Fountains as it can. It is now getting subcontractors' bids for portions of the project, he said. The developers' agreement with the city requires at least 25 percent of the companies and/or labor involved in the project to be from El Paso.
Catlin estimated more than 500 construction workers will be involved in the project."
Assurance Screening has contracted with EMJ Corporation to assist with improving efficiencies with subcontractor prequalification on the The Fountains at Farah in El Paso, TX. Assurance will assist with the collection and verification of requested documents, as well as, perform comprehensive business screening checks on all companies submitting bids for the project.
Companies wishing to bid on The Fountains at Farah in El Paso can email enroll@proqualverified.com for more details and to begin the prequalification process for EMJ Corporation.

George H.W. Bush, who promised a "kinder, gentler nation" when he served as the nation's 41st president from 1989-1993 and worked tirelessly to realize such sentiments, died Friday, November 30, 2018. He was 94.
He and his wife, Barbara, raised millions for cancer research and other causes in Houston. As former presidents, he and Clinton joined forces to support relief efforts for victims of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004. He united with presidents Clinton; Obama; Carter; and his son, George W. Bush, to raise money for Hurricane Harvey relief.
