QoinPro In Review

I have personally found very few legitimate sites online, that are upfront, honest, and even look like they will deliver what they promise for one's time and effort. Along with my partners, I have reviewed many, only to come across ridiculous fine print, pyramid schemes, scam alerts and the likes.

So, when a partner brought QoinPro to my attention, I didn't expect much. I knew very little about cryptocurrencies. However, upon an extensive review, I was pleasantly surprised and joined the QoinPro community along with several other associates that immediately saw the benefits.

It is completely free to join QoinPro and there is no time limit on your membership. As a faucet they deliver, on a daily basis, small amounts of quite a few cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, to name a few. This is based on a referral system that increases the percentage rate of coins you receive per referral down to seven levels .

This tends to raise a question with some people who are worried about pyramid schemes. Having a background in marketing and promotions, I understood that this structure can be a very effective marketing plan if done properly. Many companies use similar legitimate plans to promote their sites. The two main things one should look for in these situations are: A. Do I have to buy anything? and B: Do I have to sell anything? If yes, other questions would then arise. I then gave QoinPro an A+ in the area of marketing because both of these answers are no in their case. This in effect creates a win-win for everyone.

QoinPro founders post their backgrounds along with pics. Their history, mission statement, vision, and policies are simple, easy to read, and found at the top of the page in the About US section. They also have very friendly and informative support staff that get back to you reasonably quickly. The site also includes basic educational info for crypto beginners.

So far we give QoinPro an A+ as a long term investment strategy. To join or get more info simply click on the link below:

Thanks for the read. We'll be posting more art and crypto updates shortly.

Sifu Kane Traywick's Picks:

Summer is always a great time for Chi The World friends and family to get together. We have a lot of fun working together and playing together. Swimming holes, barbeques, practice, movie watching and art projects are a few things we like to share.

So, I decided to share a couple of martial arts movies that I liked enough to watch twice.

There are two movie trailers... Ong-Bok 3 and Ip Man 3 and the full movie version of Bruce Lee's Way of the Dragon.

Enjoy the show...
and your summer,
Kane

How to Make Your Summer Photo's Pop:

Summer is a time for fun, travel and great photo ops. I found these two simple photoshop tutorials that will make your photos unique and interesting.

One can even duplicate the Nashville instagram effect. Nashville is designed to give your photos a vintage quality.

The lomo effect is a very simple tutorial that teaches a great color curve.

Ashley on our pretty girl road trip

Both designers have many tutorials to choose from on their YouTube channels. This may be my Fav summer photo find!

Have an awesome summer,
Lou

Keith's Picks: Book of the Week

I just started reading Waterborn by J. Gregory Keyes. It's an epic story of two people destined to meet. Their experiences and their battles within and without are thought provoking and exciting. This book has strong characters and immediatly draws you into to the plot from the point of view of the characters.

This fight against the Gods already has me hanging. The world of Waterborn takes your imagination into places few authors can take you. Enjoy this geat read.

Great Places To Visit From: The Directors

If you are in the Southern New Mexico...
and willing to go off the beaten trail, try heading through the Hondo Valley to the Hurd-Wyeth La Rinocanda Gallery.

Actually, this post is dedicated to Dr. Stanley H. Taylor who had a gift for finding out of the way places that are rich in history and ambiance. So, when Stan's wife Annie (who we were driving through Southern New Mexico with) said, "Turn off here, I have a surprise for you. Stan would have wanted you to see this." Keith and I smiled at each other and took the turn.

We drove down a dirt road bouncing around pot holes, past old adobe casitas with fresh laundry hanging in yards, by rusty pick up trucks in gravel driveways. A few pigmy goats grazed along side the road where we pulled into a neat yard in front of a red brick building. We got out of the car and breathed in the crisp autumn air. The scenery of the Hondo Valley - captivating.

The Sentinel Ranch is located in San Patricio and well worth the short jaunt off of highway 70. The gallery is a hidden treasure that houses the works of Michael Hurd, Peter Hurd, Henriette Wyeth-Hurd, N.C Wyeth, Jamie Wyeth and Andrew Wyeth.

There are also several guest homes on the property that can be rented. Pets are welcome for a small fee.

For more information about the gallery, guest houses, and artists go to:http://www.wyethartists.com.

Featured Artist Ashley Heisig - Poet & Photograher

The Key To Unlocking Your Highest Potential

If you wish to free yourself
from the suffering
of birth and death
you have endured through eternity
and attain supreme
enlightenment in this lifetime,
you must awaken to the mystic truth,
which has always been
within your life.

Holding Up Friends by Ashley Heisig 2011

Whispering Hope

Soft as the voice of an angel
breathing a lesson unheard,
hope with a gentle persuasion
whispers her comforting words.

Wait until the darkness is over,
Wait until the tempest is done.
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow,
after the shower is gone.

If in the dusk of the twilight
dim be the region afar,
will not the deepening darkness,
brighten the glimmering stars.
Then when the night is upon us,
why should the night sink away?

Mud Queens -Tehema District Fair 2011 by Ashley Heisig

When the dark midnight is over,
watch for the breaking of day.
Hope as an anchor so steadfast,
rends the dark veil for the soul.
Whether the master has entered,
robbing the grave of its goal.

Come to me my angel,
my whispering hope .
Come to my sad weary heart.
Blessed hope of love
never never depart.

Incarcerated by Ashley Heisig 2011

We Stand

When the dust clears

and the storm dies down,

there we stand.

We stand

with fear at our face and

death at our backs.

Choosing to stand and fight for our loved ones

and the tears shed back at home.

"Pride lasts forever, dignity guides our path,

with that respect and discipline follow."
