Know your facts

This story is an ‘alleged’ transcript of an actual radio conversation between a US naval ship and Canadian maritime contact off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995.
Unfortunately this tale is not true, but it is nevertheless a great story:

Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees North to avoid a collision.

Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees South to avoid collision.

Americans: This is the captain of a US navy ship; I say again divert your course.

Canadians: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.

Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES’ ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, THAT’S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

Canadians: We are a lighthouse; your call

Map my mind

While surfing the net i discovered some cool mind mapping tools like Personal Brain, Xmind and Freemind.

basically, these software are tools to help us visualise the links between ideas or other pieces of information. They can be used for brainstorming, project management, creating Organisation chart and of course mind mapping. Different tools will give you different ways of processing the data,some of them are more visual like Xmind while others focus on the links and the data entered like Personal Brain.

So if you are in project management, workshops and other related fields, it might be worth your time to check them out.

As a starting point, download the free trials and start mapping.
Xmind
Personal Brain

i’m currently working on mapping my mind, will try to post it soon!

(by soon i mean as soon as i can sort my ideas and deal with my demons).
