OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 113th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

This post is something special for me, it really defines a lot of how I am and the way I learn through observation. I didn't know where to post it, it's my first time posting in this community, Hi!

The object as such is the print of this T-shirt, which is not my design, I did it because I saw the print of a T-shirt worn by Dominique Provost-Chalkley, I thought it was pretty and I wanted to change the print of an old T-shirt, but she doesn't wear things for the sake of wearing them and even less in these events, so I investigated the meaning behind it and I found something very nice, related to mental health.

When I visit the River Shores of the Danube River, I often find this little feathered friend here. This little bird needs a river that has some nice gravel shores where it can lay its eggs. Although the water level of the Danube can rise and fall several meters during the year, it still has often the chance to breed and produce some offspring. This bird has several tries during the breeding season, and not every try is successful. Especially when they open the shots of the water power plants the water level underneath the power plant rises a lot and a lot of breeding habitat of these birds is destroyed.

Age is supposed to be just a number but for me its more than that. Turning 29 this June 2021 made me think about a lot of things especially about myself. I am an advocate of self-discovery because there are things about ourselves that along the way we didn't know we are capable of. Its been a year full of unbelievable discoveries and experiences, of growth and change, and of learning and unlearning.

Hey Hivers! Hopefully you are having a beautiful day, I want to share with you this drawing, it has no name, no history, sometimes I don't know what to draw and when this happens I just let one of my favorite music lists run and let my imagination guide me, and this was the result.

Hello all! It has been quite a bit since my last post, but the summer is turning out to be a busy one. Lots of great things going on between work and family/friends, and of course it is prime gardening season. Between going picking for seasonal fruit at the local farms and picking straight from the backyard garden--much of my free time is being spent in the kitchen making sure none of the seasonal goodness goes to waste. From the garden right now the Zucchino Rampicante continues to show out.

Greetings to all! Some time ago, I asked friend @paolasatenea if I could make a sculpture based on her theatrical painting called "Obituario". Her answer was yes, so that's what today's post will be about, a sculpture representing one of the actors in her short theatrical scene.

There is no doubt in my mind that any body who is reading this article either using a lap top or a mobile device is already conversant, or at least not a stranger to the digital space, which includes all internet / online activities. The entire globe and human endeavours has been fully permeated with the online / digital phenomenon. There is hardly any type of activity in the universe that has not embraced digital solutions or at least can be attempted using digital solutions. Marketing as a human activity is not an exception in the use of digital solutions, hence the evolving of digital marketing which still operates side by side with traditional marketing, although with a serious edge over the traditional. I would like to attempt a definition of digital marketing in this piece.

Actually, I have not been so active on the platform. I do some comments here and there but have never made any post. However, I keep reading a lot about the development on #hive. Few days ago, I saw the challenge posted by @interpretation on writing the piece on financial crimes. I found this challenge very interesting. I have not been directly involved in financial crimes. But I have always heard about the same from my neighbor. He works in a consulting company which imparts training programs on financial crimes in Europe. I met him in elevator yesterday and told him about the challenge and he said you need to write about the money laundering.

Nothing can prepare you for the experience of the famous Dead Sea. Despite having been there a number of times, it still surprises and allures me. On my first plunge as a rather enthusiastic - ummmm, foolish - young adult I came away with eyes burning. I had learned my lesson. The Dead Sea has won my respect and love. Spending my childhood on the South African coast I have always loved water - particularly the ocean. The Dead Sea offers an experience that is quite indescribable.

Today I wake up early in the morning to make Chinese bread sticks for my husband to enjoy with coffee, but in this recipe we need to keep the dough for three hours. So I am a little bit late, but we enjoyed eating them with soy milk. It’s simple ingredients but not easy to make it because if we do something wrong it’s not good breadsticks.

It’s not too hard if we make it right. I like to eat it with rice porridge. I made these two times already here. When I lived in Cambodia I have never made it because the people make it and sell at all the markets and near the street in some places too. It’s cheap, for 4 bread sticks is only 50 cents, and they are bigger than mine.

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
