BBM now available for Android and iOS. Free gift from SG Labs when you sign up!

What is BBM you might be asking yourself?  BBM is short for BlackBerry Messenger.  With BBM, you can chat and share in real-time with your BBM contacts and groups. For example, you can share pictures, see when someone has read your message or is typing a reply, and update your BBM status or picture. Share your news with multiple people using broadcast messages, multi-person chats, and group chats.

With BBM Groups, you can plan events, track to-do lists, share pictures, and chat with up to 30 people at the same time without needing to add them all as BBM contacts.
 
You can use BBM over a Wi-Fi connection, such as while you're travelling to avoid extra data charges. Some wireless service providers offer ways for you to check your data usage so that you know whether your service plan is appropriate for how you use your device.
 
Now you might be asking...Why should I use BBM?  Below is an excellent article written by Michael McGuire on 10/23/13 posted on Medium.com called Why I BBM.  It's very informative and worth reading:
 

1. It’s secure

There has been no shortage of news stories lately about government surveillance of private communications. Verizon Wireless turned over to the NSA the phone logs for millions of its customers earlier this summer. In September, Forbes reported that all three major U.S. carriers receive cash for allowing the government to tap into our private conversations.
Google sifts through your emails to target you with online ads. Not a thing on Facebook is off-limits.
BBM messages aren’t susceptible to this form of government or corporate scrutiny, except for in India. A three-year dispute between BlackBerry and the Indian government forced the company to agree to allow the government to see delivered and read receipts from BBM chats, though the content of the messages would remain free of intrusion.
This is because the messages you send aren’t logged anywhere — unless you select to save them on your handset.
 

2. It’s private

Ever been pressured to give out your phone number? Ever received an a text from the unknown number of someone who got your digits from a friend of a friend? BBM eliminates the need for those embarrassing “Who’s this?” messages. You can only be contacted by people who have your PIN and whose contact requests you’ve accepted. You can give this PIN to them, send it to them in an email, tap your NFC-enable devices together (sorry, iPhone users) or allow them to scan your PIN barcode from inside the BBM app.
And even after giving your PIN to someone, you can choose to deny their request to communicate with you. You can also block a user from contacting you at any time, without them receiving an embarrassing notification. No need to change a number or contact your cell provider to keep someone from messaging you.
 

3. It’s instant and engaging

This is one of the best things about BBM. When you send a message to a contact, you receive instant feedback about that message’s status. You know when a message has been delivered, and you know when a message has been read. You see when a friend is typing to you. And the second they press send, their message appears on your screen.
Though I have done no official tests, I’ve often sent texts and BBMs at the same time to see which messages will arrive first to the same person. In fact, I’ve sent texts to my father and, a few seconds later, sent him a BBM. The BBM always arrived first. The speed of BBM in sending pictures is even more impressive. Picture messages sent outside of BBM arrive up to several minutes later than a BBM picture message, depending on your phone coverage.
 

4. It’s personal

With BBM, you choose a photo for yourself — like on Facebook or Twitter — and you can keep friends in the know with status updates, e.g., letting them know you’re in meetings all day and won’t be able to check your phone often. You control the way your name appears in their address book (although they can manually change this). And you can send emoticons, pictures, voice notes and videos to express what the written word may not.
 

5. It’s social

BBM Groups provide a place for multiple friends to connect at once. You can curate a private photo album and leave comments on the pictures. You can keep a shared calendar of upcoming outings or family events. You can create and share checklists for errands or grocery store runs. And you can chat all together in one place.
Uninterested users can back out of the group conversations too. No more getting stuck with group message threads from friends who are planning or doing something without you.
 

6. It’s efficient

The instant delivery of BBM messages saves you seconds each time you send something to a friend. And those seconds obviously add up over time. But BBM does more than save time: It saves data and battery.
Messages, pictures and voice notes sent through BBM are compressed. A photo that might normally be 1 or 2MB in size is automatically reduced to between 10 and 20KB when sent to a friend. That means a picture message on BBM uses about 1 percent of the data that a normal picture (MMS) message costs you. As unlimited data plans disappear, these kinds of savings are invaluable.
According to different battery monitors I’ve seen and used, BBM also uses less battery power, even when idle, than other mobile communications apps like WhatsApp and Kik. With smartphones that barely get you through the data, every bit of battery savings is also important.
 

7. It’s international

Though many mobile users in the U.S. have unlimited messaging plans, the plans don’t allow you to communicate with someone outside the country — at least without paying through the nose. But BBM allows you to talk with friends from any country without paying anything extra. You can even use BBM over Wi-Fi, e.g., if you’re staying in a hotel in London and don’t want to pay for an international phone plan for the three-day business trip.
This has been especially valuable to me. I’ve been in a long-distance relationship for almost two years with a girl who lives in Seville, Spain. We send each other messages, photos and even call each other (using BBM voice — available, for now, only between BlackBerrys) daily, and it doesn’t affect our phone bills at all.
For this reason, BlackBerrys tend to be the phone of choice for cost-conscious travelers and study abroad students. For this reason, too, BlackBerry phones have remained more popular in Europe, Africa, Asia and South America where $80-a-month unlimited plans (not much of a deal, is it?) don’t exist.
 

8. It’s portable

When you get a new number, a new phone or leave the country, you often have to alert your contacts about a new number. If you use BBM, your contacts will automatically receive your updated PIN when you sign into the application from your new phone. They won’t even be alerted; they’re address book will simply update itself behind the scenes. No need to send out messages or manually add each contact to your address book — which is especially a hassle if the new phone or number you’re using is only temporary.
 

9. It’s evolving

BBM for iPhone and Android doesn’t yet have all the features that BBM on BlackBerry devices has. While you’ll get an unparalleled messaging experience if you download the app today, you’ll soon get even more out of BBM. Features like BBM Voice and BBM Video will become available to iPhone and Android users. They allow for crystal-clear audio and video calls between users, as well as the ability to share screens with your friends, family and coworkers. (This is especially handy when your parents call wondering how to work something on their phone. You can walk them right through it.)
 

10. And it’s free

Free for life. No annual $1 charge (like WhatsApp) or subscriptions (like Skype). Enough said.
There are probably many other reasons to download the app, but these are the things that matter most to me. If you’re curious about BBM or used to use it on your old BlackBerry, I promise the experience of the new app on iPhone and Android won’t disappoint.  
 
Now are you ready to download BBM?  Click HERE to get started.  And to encourage MMM patients to signup, we're giving away a free gift to each of our patients that contacts us through our BBM pin.  Our pin number is 33107959.

[Cannabis Growers News] Benefits from using SGL Worm Extract Tea.


Secret Gardens Laboratories (SGL) Worm Extract Tea tea is now a bestselling product. This liquid extraction derived from worm castings, has been mixed with nothing more than water, then aerated and boosted with our special nutrient solution. The tea is filled with billions of beneficial micro-organisms which are the workhorses of a healthy, productive soil.  SGL produces 2 types of Worm Extract Tea:

1.       Grow Tea – Idea for seedlings, cuttings, and plants that are in the beginning phase of growing.

2.       Bloom Tea - Idea for plants that are blossoming, budding, also known as flowering.

There is much research that shows the benefit of worm tea when sprayed on fruits, vegetables, lawns or directly on the garden soil. The results show increased production and nutrient content of vegetables and fruits, as well as disease protection and eradication. Not only are you in increasing the quality and health of your soil, but also that of your plants.

Micro-organisms are essential in nutrient uptake for plant roots and serve as protectors from plant disease. So, if you want to give your soil, plants, lawn, compost pile and even your worm beds a boost, apply worm tea as much as every 2 weeks. It works especially well together with applications of worm castings for building the productivity of your soil.  In a nutshell you want to grow with SGL Worm Extract Tea because:


• SGL Worm Extract Tea will out-perform chemical fertilizer. Increasing both plant size and yield. This is due to interaction of Worm Tea microbes with the soil microbes and protozoa, soil particles and the roots of the plant itself.

• SGL Worm Extract Tea used as an inoculant for potting soil will suppress airborne pathogenic fungi that can readily infect sterile potting medium. The organisms in SGL Worm Extract Tea also produce hormones, vitamins, nutrients, enzymes, amino acids and minerals needed by seedling cuttings and young plants. Inoculation should be done two weeks prior to planting.

• Plants grown in soil treated with SGL Worm Extract Tea are healthier due to the symbiotic relationship between the plant and the microbes in the root zone. Plants feed the microbes and the microbes produce or make available all of the food and medicine the plant needs to thrive.

• Plants grown in soil treated with SGL Worm Extract Tea are more nutritious than plants grown in soil treated with chemical fertilizer. The food value of these plants is increased due to the availability of minerals, vitamins, enzymes and amino acids.

• SGL Worm Extract Tea can remediate soil that has been damaged by agricultural chemicals. With repeated application the microbes will adapt to the soil as well as convert and metabolize organic and inorganic chemicals. They will also sequester heavy metals not required by plants.

SGL Worm Extract Tea can treat lawns affected with thatch, which is a condition caused by sterility in the underlying soil. Chemicals usually cause sterility. SGL Worm Extract Tea will repopulate the soil with microbes, enrich the roots and break down the thatch turning it into food for the grass.

• SGL Worm Extract Tea applied to the soil improves water retention. Many of the microbes manufacture protective mucus that acts as glue to agglomerate soil particles. Microbial colonies also make a bio-slime that is mostly water and is retained to protect the colony. The water retentive property of healthy soil can be 3-4 times greater than unhealthy soil.

• SGL Worm Extract Tea applied along with insoluble granulated or powdered minerals such as granite, limestone, rock phosphate, etc will supply 95% of everything the soil needs. The other 5% is organic material applied as mulch or litter on the surface of the soil or as dead root material under the soil surface.

• The microbes in SGL Worm Extract Tea turn organic matter into humus, storing energy for later use. This is the basic unit of soil fertility.

• The microbes in SGL Worm Extract Tea feed other organisms in the soil food chain. Protozoa and nematodes feed on bacteria and fungi directly while worms ingest bacteria laden soil particles. All life in the soil depends on microbes, directly or indirectly.

• SGL Worm Extract Tea applied to a compost pile will accelerate the breakdown of plant material reducing the amount of time to make compost. It can also be used to re-inoculate the pile after it has gone through its hot phase, which inactivates or kills many of the beneficial microbes. Re-inoculation increases the population of beneficial microbes, which continue to breakdown organic matter and form humus.
