Welcome to the **124th** 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 $0.16 - $1.91!
 
**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

[More Sustainability Workshops For Children](https://steemit.com/education/@soulturtle/more-sustainability-workshops-for-children)
>This was our last session of the year and celebrated nature as an inspiration. The class first walked around the school collecting leaves and flowers they found appealing and then used those forms to create their own art 

Teaching kids about nature and how to live among nature are some great skills and knowledge that seems to have gotten lost over time. @soulturtle has been re-introducing some young ones to the joys of nature and how to be more sustainable.

[FYI: The Average Person Falls Asleep Approximately 7 Minutes](https://steemit.com/fyi/@dante01/fyi-the-average-person-falls-asleep-approximately-7-minutes)
>How long should it to fall asleep? In general, it may not really take long to fall asleep however some people struggles to sleep even at it's peak of weariness.
Sleep experts said that the latency of breaking through the state of sleeping is maximum of 20 minutes

@dante01 has some suggestions on how to fall asleep faster. What you need to do, not do and how to relax after a stressful day. Sometimes if you just change and adjust a few things, you can find yourself getting a better night's sleep.

Fish, fish...  EVERYWHERE! But what's in those glasses filled with rainbows of liquid? Head over to @dandesign86's post to see what it is!

The wakwithme tag has been becoming more and more popular in the last few weeks and what's is so interesting and inviting about writing in this tag is how much you can share with people across the world. Whether you live on a farm or in a metropolis, you can see historical sights as well as how others live in a different part of the country or across the ocean.
See what @skycae is introducing you to in this post today!

>Crumlin Road Gaol is a famous prison in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The Gaol closed its doors as a working prison in 1996 having housed, men, women and children since 1845 

Come along with @dearjoyce as she and a friend head into a _dark_ place; where some people breathe their last breath. Some VERY interesting images and you can almost feel an eerie breeze in the tunnel!

## <center>Steemvoter Down</center> 


<br>

Steemvoter is moving their service to new servers and they will be down for about a week. For all the Qurites who use steemvoter to gain access to Tier 1 and Tier 2 please consider some manual upvoting. Maybe just to be safe, swing by on Sunday and get all your upvotes out before the Tier Post. =) 

### There is an alternative to Steemvoter, check out Steemdunk. Does pretty much the same thing with a very easy interface.

## <center>Tier Changes</center> 


<br>

This will be the last week where Qurator will accept direct steem deposits for Tier upgrades. For those who would like to upgrade their tiers we suggest you do so this week. After this week Tier 3-5 will only be accessible via Delegation or Competitions. Check the rates below! 

*Note: Members who paid Steem for Tier upgrades will be fine, their Tiers will stay active the 40 days they paid for. After that they will get notified with a wallet message.*

## <center>New Tiers Update </center>

<br>

<center>The latest Tiers update is out and updated. You can see the post [here](https://steemit.com/qurator/@qurator/qurator-tiers-and-upvote-weights-update-1-8-2018-steemvoter-down-or-update-to-tiers). </center>

## Streemian Trail Account is here! 

<br>

<div class="pull-left"><center><img src="https://steemitimages.com/DQmdMFoKsoRSCzK2ty4BR3ceqFE7BbfQBNrjLmX6vZ2sjhs/17.png" /></center></div>



You may have noticed that your upvotes from @qurator packed a little bigger punch! @scrooger and @ethandsmith  are now trailing the @qurator account and will be sending you some extra upvotes from our side as well. It's not much but every upvote counts! 

You can also follow the trail and send upvotes to fellow Qurator members when @qurator upvotes them. To set up a Streemian account only takes a few minutes and is a great way to earn some extra curation.



<center> You can follow this [GUIDE](https://steemit.com/howto/@scrooger/how-to-set-up-a-streemian-account-and-follow-curators-detailed-step-by-step-guide) to set up your Streemian account. </center>


<center>After setting up your account you can follow this trail on Streemian: </center>

<center>https://streemian.com/profile/curationtrail/trailing/817</center>

*We suggest **NOT** following the trail at 100% since we do not want to drain too much of your precious voting power.  Play around with your percentage and if you see your voting power being drained too much you can simply lower your % in Streemian. If you have a lot of voting power to spare you can consider a larger %.* 

If you need any help or have questions come visit our `#support` channel on Discord.
