Welcome to the 232nd Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.05 - $11.79!
Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Military Veterans Are Uniting To Share Benefits Of Cannabis
It's no big secret that I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from my time in the Iraq War. For many years I kept it to myself and have gone through periods of isolation that would be unimaginable to most people. Or if I did participate in the world I always had a beer by my side and something to protect me not far away
Cannabis saved his sanity, helped him overcome PTSD and has given @lexikon082 a new lease on life. No matter which side of the cannabis usage viewpoint you're on, you have to admit if someone has conquered all that he has deserves to be happy and have a fulfilling life, no matter how it happens.

Indian Borage/Cuban Oregano- A Plant Of Many Wonders
I became aware of this wonder of a plant when my husband brought home a little sprig from a co-worker. It has become a common tradition among a few of his colleagues to participate in plant swapping. As a lot of his colleagues are from other countries, this little tradition as proved to be a valuable and interesting experience... Interestingly enough, this plant goes by different names in different regions of the world - Indian Borage for Asian countries, Cuban Oregano in Mexico. It is also used in Cambodia and South Africa to name just a few.
Sure you can use this herb for culinary purposes, but do you know the medicinal uses for Indian Borage or Cuban Oregano? @youhavewings is sharing a LARGE list of what you need to know, and how to use, this herb.

QUESNEY21- Day 17: I Was A Featured Author On Team Malaysia's Teh Tarik Sundays
Anyway, I am here to share what an awesome experience it was last Sunday to have an opportunity to share as a featured author in Team Malaysia's Teh Tarik Sundays - EP02 on 22.4.2018... So, I got the opporunity to share about my last post which was personal finance related. You can about it here Basically I wrote about opportunity cost in relation to money and time. When it came to my turn I was given a few minutes to share the gist of my post and then it was Q&A time with questions from the other Steemians who were online at that time
Have you done a radio podcast interview? Are you nervous about one if you have one coming up? @khimgoh offers some tips on how to remain calm and get your message across to the listening audience.

Sporty Bike Ride With Photos
First rather sporty outing of the year with 1100 meters of vertical drop , 63.3 km for almost 3 hours of cycling. The three gigantic climbs really did not make my life easy ... And a half-marathon in Lausanne made me do a lot of useless detours...
Come along for some exercise with @orlandumike and some spectacular images of scenes from around Lausanne. From wine/grape vineyards to scenic waterfront views, he is sharing some wonderful photographs while he bikes around and stays fit.

Number 61- Celebrating Canada's 150th
From colorful flora to iconic fauna and landmarks, breathtaking images of Canada's landscapes reflect the diversity of the Canadian experience... That was the idea behind the 2017 RCM series called "Celebrating Canada's 150th"... This collaborative series between the Royal Canadian Mint and Canadian Geographic magazine features striking designs based on unforgettable photographs from the bi-monthly publication. Each coin is presented in the order of each of Canada’s province or territory’s entry into Confederation
Are you a coin collector? Have you seen this special 150th collector's coin? Or maybe you have one. @ronaldoavelino shares some interesting facts about this commemorative coin from his collection.
NEWS
We will be sending out some comments with the Tier 0 upvote. We don't think many of the members are aware that it is really easy to move up to a higher tier by showing Qurator some support. Let's hope some of the older members can move up in tiers and we can make the whole community a bit stronger. =)
Tier Updates Finalized
Tier updates are out and finalized. You can check out the post HERE.
The short version is that Tier 1 and Tier 2 requirements have changed a bit. Please review them.
A separate account has been created and 26 000 SP has been delegated to it. @qurator-tier-1-2 will be upvoting Tier 1 and Tier 2 members.
A large amount of SP was undelegated from @qurator to accommodate for the new account, BUT the upvote weights have been adjust so they should balance out. Just have to see how the Voting Power holds up with the big change.

Steemauto Curation Trail
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P

Congratulations @qurator!
Your post was mentioned in the Steemit Hit Parade in the following category:
Hi, I'm new here. Not sure how this all works. But I just spent a lot of time on a couple articles and trying to figure out how to get some eyes on it. Based on what you've promoted here, it may be of interest. One is about how MDMA can cure PTSD, and the other about how the psychedelic ibogaine can cure opioid addiction:
I don't know how you find the peices you promote, but just trying to throw my hat in the ring... Thanks much.
