[Alt Text: Screenshot taken from Mass Effect Andromeda Cinematic depicts a young woman with brown skin, pixie cut curly hair styled to her left and dyed in lilac. She sits in a room with cold blue and darker tones, facing the camera but with slumped shoulders, as if the whole world’s responsibility was suddenly fall on her. A futuristic panel on the left depicts a spaceship with a text that is too small to read.  Behind her, in a large glass tube like column a shimmery blue formation resides.]
Year 2819, Day 2 of Arrival to Andromeda Galaxy Aboard Ark Hyperion - Habitation Deck, Alec Ryder’s Personal Quarters
...fuck.
*deep sigh*
I... I think I need a drink.
SAM: There is a bottle in the cabinet under the coffee machine. Your father said it was for unwinding after a long day of work.
Did he now.
SAM: He consumed a very little amount of it from what I have observed.
<Walking and rummaging sounds followed by glass and liquid noises interrupts the recording.>
Oh, that burns.
SAM: Do you require medical aid?
No, no. This is a... good kind of burn. 
SAM: That’s actually your own body temperature.
My what?
SAM: Alcohol lowers the tolerance of certain heat receptors in your mouth, causing them to activate at 34 degrees Celsius instead of 42 degrees Celsius, and thus dropping their activation threshold below your own body temperature.
<After a momentary silence followed by a set of noises indicating Mara taking another glass interrupts the recording.>
SAM: Apologies Mara, I wanted to provide a distraction. 
*tired chuckle* Yeah, I guess you did. Thanks SAM.
SAM: You are welcome. I will let you continue you with your log. If you need anything, I’m here.
Thank you SAM.
<Few minutes of silence and a several deep sighing Mara’s voice continues.>
Alright, okay.
This is... wild. I guess there is no easy way to say this, right mom? You... you probably already know it. 
Dad's dead, he is gone. Maybe he is with you now, I hope he is. He loved you so much. 
He... he apparently told Cora that if he died he would want to go among the stars, I’m... I’m not surprised. 
But... I never heard him say anything like that, I mean it does sound like dad, still... did you... did you know it, mom?
I wonder if Scott does...
*sigh* 
He tried to save me, mom. I mean I died too, apparently... but I’m back, they... they brought me back. 
First to Die — Alec and Mara Ryder
*bitter chuckle* 
Scott better not one-up me on this one. I also got the first scars, he also better not one up me on this one too, I am the cool twin.
First Scars — Mara Ryder  
*sicker followed by a sigh*
He is... he is in coma, technically. And dad... they said it was too late for him. I-- He... he made me his successor, I’m the new Pathfinder. 
I don’t know what to do... it all feels like some bizarre nightmare that I can’t wake up. 
It was supposed to be Cora, the new Pathfinder, if-if something happened to dad, it was supposed to be her, not me. I don’t even have half the training she had. 
Nexus is a bust and none of the so called Golden Worlds are golden or habitable in any case.
*groans*
I may need more than two drinks. 
Mom, I saw you. In dad's memories. He... he passed SAM to me, their connection was unlike anything I saw. 
I wonder if you knew about this. 
I can access some of dad's memories but there are blocks I need to unlock, in time. 
I feel like dad was hiding something and he left bread crumbs for us. 
*deep sigh*
We... we have arrived at Nexus, but it's a bust. It's not completed, there is news from other Arks and on top of everything none of the so called Golden Worlds are golden or habitable in any case. 
600 years sure changes a lot, isn't it?
We knew there was a possibility of things not going the way we planned for them to be but did we really? Jien Garson is dead, dad's dead, all the Arks but the human one are missing-- I'm... 
I am repeating myself. 
They are giving me a ship, it is getting ready for departure. I'm... I'm going to stay at dad's quarters till that happens. I have some files and reports to go through. 
He still has the coffee machine you got for him, I think that and the bottle in the cupboard under is going to be my new best friends. 
The track I'm picking this time is for the sake of irony, I'm sure you'd appreciate it, mom. 
Metric - Help, I'm Alive | Lyrics
SAM: Mara...
Yes, SAM?
SAM: May I ask you a question?
Sure, go ahead. 
SAM: I noticed that in all your private logs you spoke as if you are talking to Ellen. Why is that?
It's... it's kind of tradition. 
SAM: Tradition? 
Yeah, when I was with the peacekeeping I would send mom voice or video logs regularly, and in return she did the same. 
Like mails. 
We would talk to each other about how our day went, what we did, how's everyone doing and so on. 
I think... I think I kept doing it after she died because it helped me deal with my grief. 
Losing her wasn’t easy... it never is. I haven’t even started to process that dad is gone as well. 
*sigh*
Anyways, now even though I know she will never get these, it helps me calm down and assess things better. I guess I can say, at this point, they are for me more than they are for her. 
But it also keeps her memory alive for me and I can imagine as if she is watching over me and Scott from wherever she is. With... dad now, I hope.
SAM: I see. Thank you for answering Mara.
Anytime SAM, anytime.
End of record.

A Last Reflection (Probably)
I just started a new job, and it’s made me think about how social media posts often come back to bite people who are in prestigious positions. I wouldn’t consider my new job to be a “prestigious position” per se, but I decided to go back through my tumblr and “curate” it for posterity. I didn’t want to delete the account, because I’m actually really happy with what I’ve written, and even though I have copies of everything on my own computer, I’m much more likely to re-read it myself in its original blog form.
Anyway, as I was going through, I was actually kind of surprised that I didn’t cringe (very often, anyway) at what I had written five years ago. I thought I would (see this comic - and don’t forget the alt text), but I found that using soft and tentative language, which I think is important when it comes to reflective and critical thinking, really buffered the posts against self-criticism. It was kind of a neat lesson. I did delete a few posts, though. Mostly ones where I said something I thought was too harsh, or if I ended up “debating” with someone online - it’s not that I regretted those posts; they just left me feeling kind of uncomfortable, and it felt better to delete them.
I was also surprised at how often the ideas I’d written here had become an important part of something else I had written or done later, without me even realizing it. A couple of my posts ended up being subconsciously incorporated into a short article I wrote, and another one was the entire basis for an educational video game demo I worked on. And reading some the reflective posts (i.e. the year-end review for the first, and only full, year) reminded me of how useful an exercise this blog was.
I don’t know if I’ve said this before, but the main reason I started this blog was to “empty out my brain” so that I could focus on my PhD. In the short term, it probably distracted me a little bit from graduate work (i.e. the 2012-2013 year was definitely my least productive - a classic “doldrums” PhD block), but in the long term, I know that a lot of my important thoughts are fleshed out and written down (and where other people *could* read them no less), so I don’t have to worry about incorporating them into my “real-life” projects, unless they’re particularly relevant (in which case it’s great that I’ve already thought them through).
Well, I probably won’t post again, but I’ll try to log in once in a while. If, for whatever reason, and I know this is extremely unlikely, someone wants to re-read something that I deleted, you can contact me and I might give you a copy from my computer. Haha.
Oh yeah, I’m a dad now. Happy critical thinking!

Online Income Tips and Tricks With Infusionsoft
Online Income With Infusionsoft
Online income can easily save you countless hours of stress and headache and one of the ways to manage your online income is by using the right CRM system.
In this article we are going to be giving you some tips on how to use Іnfusіоnsоft for your small business.

І sреnd thе bеttеr раrt оf mу dау іn Іnfusіоnsоft аррlісаtіоns. I’m either building out a new campaign or keeping the notes on online income for clients or myself.
With this in mind, I experience nuances in the software every day.
These aren’t bugs or problems – you should know by now that I think this software rocks.
Instead, they are little things that take more time to call tech support about than to obtain the answer to.
But they’re a pretty big deal when you are focused on the best end product potential not to mention trying to remain effective and “get it right the first time” so you may “set it and forget it” to grow your online income stream.
Here is a list of some of the more typical nuances and how to work around it so you may avoid glitches and save time:
You must use Infusionsoft to manage your follow-up tasks and set up daily tasks to help you prioritize and stay focused. If you have a long list of daily tasks, like we do, remember to go down the list and right-click and open each new task, or contact, in a new tab – otherwise you’ll have to keep searching from square one again.
Usе Fіrеfох whеn wоrkіng іn уоur Іnfusіоnsоft аррlісаtіоn. Nowadays, I am finding that most people use the web browsers Internet Explorer and Chrome more frequently than Firefox. But when it comes to working in your Infusionsoft application Firefox is said to be the best.
To be clear: you can use IE to work on your Infusionsoft application. Ноwеvеr, аll thе рrоgrаmmіng tіеd tо Іnfusіоnsоft works better vіа Fіrеfох.

Alt codes don’t work when created using your IE browser. If you need a trademark symbol in an HTML email or a webform, you can create one via the alt code “ALT0153” (this is not Infusionsoft specific – this is the overall Alt code for ).
Do not copy paste HTML email into the email builder. I once had a client do this recently, and then he spent plenty of time attempting to edit and fix the formatting of the email he was attempting to build. I had to break it to him – it couldn’t be saved – scrap it and start over. It feels like a quick way to prep an email, but it turns into a hot mess quickly. Take a little extra time and prep it correctly. For example, you can drag and drop the html box onto the email builder. Which leads me to my next suggestion…
Put your copy into a text software before pasting it into the email builder. Microsoft Word copy LOOKS perfectly plain text – but it isn’t. Whеn уоu сору/раstе сору frоm Wоrd tо уоur Іnfusіоnsоft аррlісаtіоn, уоu mау оftеn fіnd fоrmаttіng “оff” аnd sуmbоls wіll сhаngе fоrm. Sometimes apostrophes become question marks and italic font looks strange. For those who have copy prepped in a Word doc, copy and paste it into something like Notepad and then copy paste into your Infusionsoft email builder from there.Watch the video below to learn more about the best CRM:

Аlwауs tеst еmаіls bеfоrе thеу аrе sеnt. These seem obvious but trust me, if you are using Infusionsoft to its greatest potential, you (or someone on your team) is prepping plenty of copy in the system, which will eventually push out to your prospects, clients, and customers. An email can look fine in the prep window and then once you send the test and it comes into your Outlook inbox (or whatever email software you use) things could be “off.”
Or what I do sometimes is forget to add a hyperlink to text. It’s usually due to rushing, but not always. Sometimes I will prep a lengthy email and add hyperlinks, but for some reason they do not save once in a while. I will always notice it when I am clicking around reviewing the test email. Always check.
When you are reviewing a test email, check all the links in the email. Again, this sounds like a “duh, Jessica,” but when you are dealing with plenty of campaigns, or broadcasts, in high volumes, you WILL forget to check links if you don’t make it a part of a regular quality check system. Just because something is hyperlinked and LOOKS clickable, you might have forgotten something as simple as the “HTTP://” ( Note: The program automatically fixes that now, but a common one to help illustrate the point.). Or, you just plain put the wrong link in. Always, always check. Make it easy and fun for your clients.
If you are marketing to people in the EU then you will love this bonus tip. Infusionsoft have done all of the hard work to ensure that your company and marketing is GDPR compliant. And it all starts with only one-click on their system! This was a great saver and it made everything so easy for us here in the UK.
Make sure everyone which has an Infusionsoft user account understands the nuances and takes steps to prevent them. An Infusionsoft application can have three to five users on one app account,  so different members of your team can be prepping and tinkering with the application. There is nothing more frustrating than prepping a lengthy email follow-up sequence properly, and then someone else logs into change a thing or two and does so in IE and melts some оf thе fоrmаttіng. Іt’s dаngеrоus. Not dangerous like starting a fire or causing an automobile crash… but it might cause emails to go out the wrong way, and it can cause plenty of frustration for internet marketers who are committed to building online income.
