The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) says it will go ahead and set the date for the five pending parliamentary by-elections in Solwezi Central, Kasenengwa, Mkushi North, Zambezi West and Vubwi.
And as disclosed by the Zambian Watchdog, former Mangango MMD MP Taudi Chiseke has finally confirmed that he applied to re-contest the seat on the ruling PF ticket but is not sure if he will be adopted.
The ECZ position is despite PF Secretary General Wynter Kabimba indicating that he has directed the party's lawyers to enforce the Supreme Court judgment in the the High Court to bar former opposition Members of Parliament whose elections were nullified for engaging electoral malpractices from recontesting their seats.
ECZ Public Relations Manager, Cris Akufuna has told Qfm News in an interview that the Commission will proceed and set the date for the by-elections this week following the Supreme Court judgment.
Last week ECZ Chairperson Irene Mambilima indicated that the Commission would allow former MPs Lucky Mulusa, Victoria Kalima, Sydney Chisenga, Charles Kakoma and Eustarkio Kazonga to re-contest in the by-elections following the Supreme Court's judgment.
The Zambian Watchdog indicated that PF had no credible candidate for Mangango and are further determined to by time and delay the elections by fielding the same candidate they hope the opposition and ECZ will reject.
Highly placed sources within the PF disclosed that the ruling party want to delay the Mangango by-election by lumping it together with contentious legal battles of barring former candidates from re-contesting their seats.

Bourbon Discussion
Carl Beam
By COPPERSTILL, April 25, 2003 in History
COPPERSTILL
Does anyone have any information on Carl Beam. Master Distiller at Jim Beam.
cowdery
Bourbonian of the Year 2002 and Guru
Carl was the son of Park Beam, who was Jim Beam's brother. As a young man during Prohibition, Carl went to California to build roads for the CCC. After returning to Kentucky, he worked in the family's rock quarry on the site of what is now the Jim Beam Clermont plant. Carl, along with his father and brother Earl, worked at the reconstituted Jim Beam Distillery after Prohibition, along with their cousin, Jim's son Jeremiah (Jere). Jim and Jere were the businessmen. Park, Carl and Earl were the distillers. When the plant opened in 1934, Earl was 27 and Carl was 24 but evidently the better distiller, since he became Master Distiller at Beam, assisted by Earl, who eventually left to become Master Distiller at Heaven Hill. Carl became a vice-president of the James B. Beam Distillery Company in 1959. He retired in 1974. He was married to Edna Janes. Carl's sons Baker and David also became distillers at Jim Beam.

Ford finds an unlikely sales star in Raptor pickup
A Ford F-150 SVT Raptor taps into the off-road enthusiast market, both the desert and the ice and snow
by Chris Woodyard, USA TODAY
Published: 12/08/2012 08:00am
In an age of downsized dreams, high-priced gas and a general disdain for supersized living, Ford Motor continues to make a sales star out of a four-by-four pickup truck that kicks sand in the face of convention.
It's the Ford SVT Raptor, a full-gulping 411-horsepower V-8-powered variant of the F-Series pickup riding atop oversized tires. And it is finding new fans for its performance in ice and snow, not just desert dunes and rocky hilltops.
The Raptor shows that despite all the forces aligned against it, the market for performance vehicles and brawny pickups in the U.S. auto industry remains intact. Yes, gas mileage has become a top consideration for buyers. But no, buyers aren't going to sacrifice fun — or a vehicle that best fits their needs — for one that scores on fuel economy. That's where Raptor comes in.
"It has this kind of 'Oh yeah, watch this' kind of quality to it," says Mark Williams, editor of PickupTrucks.com. "There's a lot of cache."
Raptor competes against the Ram Power Wagon and Ram pickups customized with the Ram Runner desert kit, plus Toyota's Tacoma Baja pickup. Raptor, however, seems to have found its place in the market by being the do-it-all truck.
Despite being basically unchanged for three years, Ford Raptor saw its highest sales in a single month ever in October. The 1,400 Raptors sold for the month topped the previous monthly tally set in April 2011, by 200.
The model is on pace to top 13,000 in sales for the year, highest in the three years since its debut. While the sales tallies pales compared to the F-Series pickup sales overall at 520,830 through October — it's the nation's best-selling vehicle — the Raptor comes with a high price tag that makes it one of the prizes of Ford's stable.
At $43,340 before delivery charges, the 2013 Raptor starts at almost twice the price of the cheapest F-150. But then again, the thing is a monster — from its 6.2-liter V-8 to its 35-inch all-terrain tires.
"If a guy needs that off-road capability, there really is nothing else that can approach it," says Jamal Hamedi, chief engine for Ford's global performance vehicles.
Hamedi was the part of the team that envisioned Raptor as a desert racer. By the time it had been fitted with touches like long-travel Fox Shox shock absorbers and a front-view camera to give drivers a view of obstacles they can't see over the top of the hood, it turned out to have decent rock crawling and snow capability as well.
When a blizzard shut down travel to the North American International Auto Show in Detroit a couple of years ago, Hamedi says he and two other Ford executives hopped in Raptors and plowed their way from Detroit in less than five hours.
Raptor's icy-weather capabilities are impressive enough that Mark Rowe of Greenburg, Penn., is organizing a 500-mile backwoods rally over the frozen tundra of Michigan's Upper Peninsula in January. The so-called SnoBall 500, which Rowe dreamed up with a few buddies, has already attracted 35 Raptor owners and $20,000 in donated raffle items, with proceeds being donated to charity.
Raptor defies stereotypes, Rowe, who works for an oil-services company, says. "Everyone thinks it's going to ride rough," he says, but in fact, "It rides like a sports car riding on a marshmallow."
Sure, the gas mileage is pretty awful. It's government rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 mpg on the highway, 13 mpg combined. Rowe says despite the fuel use, "It puts a smile on my face every time I get in and pull out of the driveway."
There is little else like a it. Ram developed the Ram Runner kit, costing about $18,000 though its Mopar aftermarket division, to turn its pickups into desert racers. And there has been "a great response to it," says Steve Houtman of Mopar. The Power Wagon, with its sway bars, winch and Bilstein shocks, is aimed at traversing rough terrain.
Because it rides so well, Raptor is attracting a high-end clientele outside of hard-core offroad enthusiasts, says Steve Olliges, president of Team Ford in Las Vegas, one of the nation's top-selling Raptor dealers and one of the drivers involved in the original testing of the truck.
He says some buyers have his and hers Raptors. Some trade in Range Rover for one.
Cars.com's Williams' says Raptor has proven overall more capable than its rivals. "The way the computer…suspension and traction all work together is amazing," he says."As far as vehicles that are run to drive, it's hard to find vehicle like the Raptor."

UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, Transferred to ICU, As Condition Worsens
Joe Published: April 6, 2020
The U.K. Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has been moved to the Intensive Care Unit of a hospital in London, according to a report just in from Bloomberg News.
Government officials confirmed the news to the BBC saying that the prime minister's condition had worsened, and he was moved to the intensive care unit of St. Thomas' Hospital in London.
The 55-year-old was first diagnosed with the coronavirus about 10 days ago (on March 26). He had been working (primarily via video conferencing) from his residence before being admitted to the hospital on Sunday (April 5).
At this time, it does not appear as if Johnson is on a ventilator, according to a report from Sky News. They say that he is conscious and was moved to the ICU as a precaution should he require ventilation.
This is a developing story. We'll have more details if they're made available.

Madeleine McCann's parents reveal Maddie search hit by Covid crisis but still have 'hope'
MADELEINE McCann's parents have vowed to carry on searching for their daughter despite the coronavirus crisis hampering progress.
Writing on the Official Find Madeleine Campaign website, Kate and Gerry McCann said their thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has suffered during 2020.
In the message posted online today, they wrote: "Understandably, the investigation to find Madeleine has been forced to slow down as a result of the pandemic.
"It hasn't stopped however and the hope, energy and determination to find her and uncover the truth remain steadfast."
The couple also revealed they have both lost parents during 2020 – two of Maddie's three grandparents who sadly passed away without ever knowing her fate.
But Kate and Gerry thanked their supporters and well wishers for continuing to be by their side.
'RUBBISH YEAR'
They wrote: "We are very grateful for the continued support, especially throughout this 'rubbish' year and for all the Christmas wishes too. Thank you."
Heart doctor Gerry and hospital medic Kate, both 52, from Rothley, Leicestershire, who faced their 14th Christmas without Madeleine, opened their message by saying: "Goodbye 2020! What a year! One we don't want to remember but will find it hard to forget."
They added: "There's no doubt that 2020 has been tough for most people, and often distressing, with so much loss, worry and isolation.
"Despite losing a parent each, we are aware we have been more fortunate than many, with our family unit at home and jobs to go to.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has suffered this year. Let's hope 2021 is a brighter, more positive one. With our best wishes for exactly that. Kate & Gerry."
Three-year-old Madeleine vanished from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, in May 2007 while her parents were dining in a nearby tapas restaurant with pals.
She had been left sleeping alone with her younger twin siblings.
Kate and Gerry cling onto a glimmer of hope that their daughter – who would now be 17 – is still alive.
In early June last year German Police sensationally named jailed sex offender Christian B – who cannot be fully named due to German privacy laws – as a new key suspect in Madeleine's abduction.
Prosecutors recently said they were "very confident" of charging him in the New Year and said the public "would reach the same conclusion if they knew the evidence we had."
They are convinced Madeleine is dead.
German national Christian B, 43, is currently behind bars for unrelated drugs offences and raping an American pensioner in 2005 in the same Algarve resort Maddie was snatched from nearly two years later.
At the time the prime suspect came to light, the McCann's said in a statement: "All we have ever wanted is to find her, uncover the truth and bring those responsible to justice.
"We will never give up hope of finding Madeleine alive but whatever the outcome may be, we need to know as we need to find peace.
"We would like to thank the general public for their ongoing support and encourage anyone who has information directly related to the appeal, to contact the police."
Kate and Gerry's twins Sean and Amelie are now aged 15 and turn 16 in February.
Last summer it was revealed that Maddie's paternal grandma, widow Eileen McCann from Glasgow, had died aged 80 shortly before the bombshell news about a new prime suspect. She had previoulsy lost her husband John.
Now the McCann's tell how Kate has lost a parent too.

Would you like to bring SFA to your campus? Start an SFA Chapter! Students and their university's administrations have an important role in the food system. Students and youth are "market targets" for food corporations and universities are ideal institutions for consumption. Organizing an SFA chapter on your campus is a way to support the CIW's Campaign for Fair Food using the leverage you have as a student. It is also a form of making sure that year after year students are learning and taking action in the Campaign.
To start a chapter, research what club or group registration looks like on your campus. You don't need to start with a large group right away. In fact, a small base in the beginning is good for making sure that everyone is on the same page about what you would like your group to look like. Also, make sure to contact us at organize@sfalliance.org when you start this process! We are a national network that supports each other and there are plenty of folks ready to make sure your chapter is successful!
SFA has been coordinating alternative break and immersion programs in Immokalee for several years, and we'd love to work with your organization!
There's nothing more powerful than hearing from the farmworkers themselves. And in our experience, nothing generates more excitement than having a member of the CIW visit campus to educate and inspire your campus community to get involved. There are many ways that we can make this happen. As we get this process started, it's helpful for us if you have an idea about whether or not your school will sponsor the trip, how much can be fundraised beforehand, if we are visiting for a particular event, and what you envision the visit will look like. We can adapt to class presentations, campus-wide presentations, student-organized actions, and other creative events you have in mind. Contact us at organize@sfalliance.org to plan a visit!

The values of parameters calculated from distribution and abundance of the selected pentacyclic terpanes in crude oils from Libya and Serbia, which were originally derived from gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) were compared with results of quantification based on gas chromatography–
–mass spectrometry-mass spectrometry (GC–MS-MS). The parameters analyzed are the most often used terpane source and maturity parameters, which were applied to a large sample set of 70 oils, originating from five oil fields. The aim of the paper was to investigate to which extent the measurements of the selected parameters by these two instrumental techniques agree and to determine the influence of differences between parameter values on geochemical interpretation. For that purpose two methods, concordance correlation coefficient and mean-difference plot were used. The obtained results indicate that calculation of C2718α(H)-22,29,30-trisnorneohopane/(C2718α(H)-22,29,30-
-trisnorneohopane + C2717α(H)-22,29,30-trisnorhopane), C2918α(H)-30-norneohopane/C2917α(H)21β(H)-30-norhopane and C2917α(H)21β(H)-30-norhopane/C3017α(H)21β(H)-hopane ratios either by GC–MS or GC–MS-MS do not significantly influence interpretation. On the other hand, the determination of C3017β(H)21α(H)-moretane/C3017α(H)21β(H)-hopane ratio, gammacerane index and oleanane index by GC–MS vs. GC‑MS-MS could notably affect interpretation. These differences can be explained by the co-elution and the peak overlapping in GC–MS but also by better separation, higher precision and better selectivity of the GC–MS-MS. Deviation of the almost all studied parameters from the line of equality was similar for the oils from the same oil field but some differences were observed for the oils from different oil fields. Therefore, when GC–MS-MS results are to be used in organic geochemical interpretations, a regional calibration of GC–MS vs. GC‑MS-MS relationship for each petroleum system is highly recommended.

Smoky, mesquite-roasted eggplant meets the Mediterranean flavors of feta and tahini, with a sweet touch of honey.
Toss whole eggplant in 1 tsp canola oil, 1/2 tsp salt and pepper and grill over open flame until skin is black. We love to smoke over mesquite embers, it adds to the smokiness of the eggplant. Take off grill and transfer into a pan and cover with plastic wrap. Remove skin and transfer the roasted meat of the eggplant into a 6 pan. Hold warm.
Scatter 3 ounces of this roasted eggplant around a bowl and drizzle 1 ounce of tahini over it. Garnish with ¼ tsp sesame seeds, black sesame dust (black sesame seeds pureed), 1 ounce of sprinkled feta and 1 ounce of spanish olives.
This plate should look like a deconstructed hummus. Enjoy!


You will produce a volume of poetry as well as a piece of scholarly research of 30-40,000 words. Given its emphasis on poetic practice as research into the possibilities and potential for contemporary poetry, the programme integrates with the aims and objectives of the Centre for Modern Poetry allowing for joint supervision between the two centres. Cross-faculty work on modern poetry with colleagues in the School of European Culture and Languages is also encouraged. The programme acknowledges the fact that poetry has historically understood itself as an art, consciously informed by research.


This video teaches you about the Gilded Age and its politics. What, you may ask, is the Gilded Age? The term comes from a book by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner titled, "The Gilded Age." You may see a pattern emerging here. It started in the 1870s and continued on until the turn of the 20th century. The era is called Gilded because of the massive inequality that existed in the United States. Gilded Age politics were marked by a number of phenomenons, most of them having to do with corruption. On the local and state level, political machines wielded enormous power. This video gets into details about the most famous political machine, Tammany Hall. Tammany Hall ran New York City for a long, long time, notably under Boss Tweed. Graft, kickbacks, and voter fraud were rampant, but not just at the local level. Ulysses S. Grant ran one of the most scandalous presidential administrations in U.S. history, and you will hear about two of the best-known scandals, the Credit Mobilier scandal and the Whiskey Ring. There were a few attempts at reform during this time, notably the Civil Service Act of 1883 and the Sherman Anti-trust act of 1890. This video will also get into the Grange Movement of the western farmers, and the Populist Party that arose from that movement. The Populists, who threw in their lot with William Jennings Bryan, never managed to get it together and win a presidency, and they faded after 1896.

Gorgeous late 1970s/early 80s graphic silk blouse by Givenchy. Fantastic piece with the most amazing pattern! Incredible diamond pattern looks basket woven but isn't - such an incredible textile! Puffed sleeves, hidden buttons up the front and massive ascot. Stylized buttons and pleated back. Very lightly padded shoulders - more to give this piece shape than volume. Can easily be removed. Pristine vintage condition.

Q: handle link and navigate with firebase dynamic links in flutter I am using firebase_dynamic_links 0.5.0 in my flutter project app. I am using bloc for state management and I have the issue with the navigation. I am handling the link normally but when I try to navigate to another page that's not work . I don't know why ?
PS : I have test the firebase_dynamic_links example and that's work normally

          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

thank you, and sorry for my bad English.

A: It could be that the deepLink is null and the code inside the if statement is not executed. Could you provide an example of the deep link you are sending to your app? It could be that firebase_dynamic_links cannot parse the deep link correctly if it has an error.

Documentary on caste discrimination to be screened on April 10
Kaumudi Kashikar-Gurjar
Patwardhan said it makes a unique reference to the inhuman diktat issued during the Peshwa rule, which said that the untouchables were allowed to enter the city only in the afternoon.
PUNE: Puneites will have an opportunity to watch National award-winning documentary filmmaker Gouri Patwardhan's another film 'Bin Savlyanchya Gavat' or 'In A Shadowless Town'. The film explores the missing 'Bahujan' narrative in the history of the city, which was often referred as Peshwa city - Pune.
The film will be screened at the Mahatma Phule Smarak (Phule Wada) at 7 pm on Tuesday (April 10). It attempts to answer some uncomfortable questions such as 'Why haven't been the monuments associated with the Phuleite and Ambedkerite movements not preserved?' unlike many others.
Patwardhan's earlier documentary 'Modikhanyachya Don Goshti' (Two tales of Modikhana) had won the award in Non-Feature Film category for Best Arts/Culture film at the 60th National Film Awards in Delhi in 2013. Embarked on the journey to find Bahujan narrative in the history of the city, Patwardhan decided to cover the heritage walks knowing that they do not include monuments connected with the Bahujan history.
She, later, explored them on her own, based on her knowledge from reading about them.
She added activists and leaders associated with the Bahujan movement had to struggle hard in sourcing Phule's writings and photographs. As compared to the Phuleite movement, the monuments associated with the Ambedkerite movement were well preserved. It was possible due to the efforts taken by followers of this movement. The Koregaon-Bhima memorial is the latest example in this regard.
Speaking about the 'title' of this film, Patwardhan said it makes a unique reference to the inhuman diktat issued during the Peshwa rule, which said that the untouchables were allowed to enter the city only in the afternoon. The best-known reason was that at this time, the human shadow falls at one's feet. Thus, a chance of their shadows touching others (upper caste members) is ruled out. This guarded members of the upper castes against the 'peril' of coming in 'contact' with the untouchables.
Patwardhan added that the 52-minute film was first broadcasted by Doordarshan in June 2017. Later, it was screened during the Public Service Broadcasting Trust festival 'Open Frame' in Delhi in September last year. Later, It will be screened for the first time in the city. The Marathi version of the film lasts for 63 minutes.
Patwardhan told Sakal Times that the film dwells on how and why the historical narrative of Pune is predominantly Brahminical and how and why the Bahujan narrative is absent.
Elaborating her point, Patwardhan said the film discusses two case studies – One is about Mahatma Jyotiba Phule and Shivram Gyanba Kamble, a lesser known Dalit leader.
She said her film explores how and why Phule's legacy was not preserved. The places associated with Phule's life were not preserved. She had to make tremendous efforts in retrieving places, where the Satyashodhak Samaj Mandal's meetings were held.
The film explores how Kamble's contribution remained unknown to many despite his phenomenal contribution to the Dalit movement, said Patwardhan.
She said the making of the documentary proved to be quite revealing to her as not only the ancient city planning but also the modern one had a strong Brahminical influence.
SCREENING OF THE FILM
The film, exploring an 'alternative' narrative about the history of the city, will be screened at 7 pm on Tuesday at Phule Wada.

Sure, you can eat peanut butter by itself but isn't it so much better paired with jelly? The same is true of Internet marketing. Email marketing, banner ads, social media marketing, and your web site are all highly effective marketing tools but you can get even better results from all those channels using direct mail.
In a study conducted by the United States Post office 37% of e-commerce dollars come from catalog recipients and 41% of Americans shop using both catalogs and the Internet.
While 59% of respondents to a DoubleClick.com survey indicated that they only open e-mail from a known and trusted sender, direct mail elicits curiosity. Direct mail doesn't carry the threat of a computer virus or hacker so people are more willing to explore mail from an unknown sender. And once someone has become familiar with your brand through direct mail they're much more likely to then open your e-mail communications.
Direct mail has a much longer life span than e-mail, a web page, or banner ad. Educators routinely pass postcards and catalogs along to colleagues as well as keep files of materials for future reference. Education buying is a collaborative process. When you send a catalog to a classroom teacher she's likely to share that catalog with a Lead Teacher and possibly even a Principal or Assistant Principal in order to get approval for purchasing your product. Catalogs contain more details than an email or even a web page and are easy to share with colleagues.
Research from the USPS shows that catalog recipients account for 22% of web site traffic and make 15% more transactions than those who do not receive catalogs.
Like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich direct mail is the education marketers tried and true choice. Direct mail continues to deliver.

You can take a shower and wash your hair with a shampoo, but it's a chore that requires more time than the shower. The only way you can avoid the cho
The Next Big Thing in normal uterine size
getting a job unrelated to your degree
The Biggest Problem With how to loose weight after a hysterectomy, And How You Can Fix It
You can take a shower and wash your hair with a shampoo, but it's a chore that requires more time than the shower. The only way you can avoid the chore is to leave the shower alone. When you do leave the shower, you will feel like the whole house is in a state of chaos. You can't even feel the shower running. However, when you leave the shower, you will feel like you are in a car, parking lot, or the airport.
One of the most important things to keep in mind is that the shower is at least twice as heavy as the shower itself. It's like being on a train with one tank full of water. If you leave the shower alone, you are not supposed to leave the train with the tank full of water. In fact, you could be driving the train with the tank full of water, and you are supposed to be parking behind it. The shower is at least twice as heavy as the shower itself.
The shower, by definition, is made of a foam sponge that is slightly thicker than the water in the water. It can make your face look like something you've been watching for a while, and it looks like it's in a bathtub.
The difference between the shower and the tank is that the shower consists of two things: water and foam. The water is a liquid, which is not actually the same as the water in the water. There are a few different ways to wash your hands. If you wash your hands in water, your hands are still water. The tank, in contrast, consists of a foam sponge that is lighter in weight than the water in the water.
The tank is a big change for the facial appearance of scheana shay, who has yet to really have a good look at his face. He has a black and white photo of himself that has been done by a professional photographer. However, there is no longer a facial expression or a nose or any other part of his face that looks like it was put together by someone who knew what they were doing.
The team at the company wants to do a few things right now without getting into a lot of details about the game. For instance, they want to know, what happened with the tank on Blackreef. If they can get the tank into the tank and kill the team, then we can start to build an inventory of tank parts. All the tank parts are in the game, and if the tank is not at the top of the scale, then the tank will be destroyed.
The tank is a pretty big part of the game and we're very excited about it. In the past, I've had a lot of fun playing as a tank. Being a tank is one of the many things that makes Deathloop different from other stealth games. It's a very stealth game, you get to decide when you want the tanks to attack you.
When I first heard of this game, I was excited to see a tank game. I wasn't expecting to be in a stealth game for the first time. I also didn't expect to be playing the tank. After playing Deathloop for the first time, I'm not sure I can say the same. It's a pretty cool game, very different from the tank games I grew up with.
Here's a few examples of tanks.
The tanks you see on the map will be the ones you can see in the game, and the tanks you fight will be the ones you can see in the game. I dont believe that you can actually kill tanks in Deathloop, so you have to make a really good decision whether or not to play them.


It always blows my mind when I'm talking to a startup (or business in any growth stage for that matter) and they have no idea what their Net Promoter Score (NPS) is. Your Net Promoter Score is an index ranging from -100 to 100 that measures the willingness of customers to recommend your company's products or services to others. It's used as a proxy for gauging the customer's overall satisfaction with a company's product or service and the customer's loyalty to the brand.
Not only will your NPS provide you with valuable insights into what your customers love, hate, and feel agnostic about, but it'll provide insight into what you can do to move the needle in the right direction, and give them a reason to love you and recommend you. When done well, the survey you use to generate your NPS will provide you with a set of data points that you can integrate into your company strategy and vision. Once you have it, it's up to you to make sure that you're taking this feedback into consideration as you grow and iterate.
I received an email today from a service that I've used for over a decade, offering me cash to refer friends. I immediately deleted the email. I put up with this service, but it's really outdated and disappointing; with seemingly no plans to improve. The only reason I still use them is because it would be a profound task to transition elsewhere, which isn't a priority for me right now.
In this case, the cash for the referral is completely moot. They could offer me whatever they wanted and I wouldn't bite; I value my reputation and relationships too much to sell them out for a measly credit.
This is an important lesson. It's not what you offer people to recommend you, it's whether or not they would even participate; and that's up to you.
Another example: I love Zingerman's and will gladly recommend them to anyone who loves unique, tasty food stuffs. They don't offer me anything to recruit or recommend people to them, but I'm happy to because I trust that anyone who tries them will love them. I could, of course, be wrong. Everyone doesn't love everything. But I know I'd never have someone say, "This is absolutely horrible, why would you ever tell me to try this?", which is exactly what I fear about the other service.
My suggestion is that you get together a good survey and figure out your NPS. Mesh the info you get back from your customers (members, clients) with your business initiatives, needs, and wants; tweak and adjust where you see value.
What's your customer acquisition cost from a referral? Little to nothing. It's one of the most important levers you can pull early on.

Eastern section of the Western Beskids () are a set of mountain ranges spanning the southern Polish and northern Slovak border. They constitute an eastern section of the Western Beskids, within the Outer Western Carpathians.

In geographic classification, the term Beskid Mountains has several definitions, related to distinctive historical and linguistic traditions. Depending on a particular classification, designation Eastern in relation to the Beskids is also used with different meanings. In Slovak terminology, the term Eastern Beskids () is used to designate the eastern section of the Western Beskids. In Polish terminology, the same region is also classified as the eastern section of the Western Beskids, but not under the term Eastern Beskids (), since that term is used to designate Eastern Beskids of the Outer Eastern Carpathians.

We have lived in the Eastern Cape for many, many years and we only just discovered some unreal history on our doorstep!! I cannot believe that there are no reviews on this site.We were met by a lady named Rosie who entertained us with fascinating stories of the Cuyler family as she conducted a detailed tour of each room of the manor ending in the kitchen which is obviously her favourite room. Rosie was an excellent hostess and is a valuable asset to this monument - she needs high commendation, indeed.Conducted tours can be arranged by phoning the office and can ended with a light lunch.

Review of Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu
Moxie by Jennifer Mathieu
by Roaring Book Press
Moxie girls fight back!
Vivian Carter is fed up. Fed up with her small-town Texas high school that thinks the football team can do no wrong. Fed up with sexist dress codes and hallway harassment. But most of all, Viv Carter is fed up with always following the rules.
Viv's mom was a punk rock Riot Grrrl in the '90s, so now Viv takes a page from her mother's past and creates a feminist zine that she distributes anonymously to her classmates. She's just blowing off steam, but other girls respond. Pretty soon Viv is forging friendships with other young women across the divides of cliques and popularity rankings, and she realizes that what she has started is nothing short of a girl revolution.

My first thought when I read the synopsis (the blurb) for Moxie, was "Wait, so are zines a thing again? Am I that old?" The answer is, zines never stopped being a thing, I just stopped making them, and yes, I am that old. As a 1989 baby, I grew up in the 90s, I didn't really experience the Riot Grrrl movement since I was a member of the 10 & under crowd. I mean, we had zines as kids. Everybody got into zines in the 90s. I don't think there was a kid in the 90s who couldn't make a zine. I couldn't make a friendship bracelet or braid hair until I was out of high school, but I could make a cootie catcher fortune teller and I could make a zine before I was 6. Because those were important skills to have for a lifetime, right? But for anybody who doesn't really know what a zine is (because I've seen quite a few people who don't actually know) or wants to know how to make one, here's a quick little zine tutorial.
I enjoyed reading Moxie. I read it in one sitting and I own three copies of it. A physical copy, a Kindle copy, and an ebook copy. It has its flaws but I've yet to encounter a truly perfect book, not even a favourite book is perfect. I truly tried to keep this review short and sweet and still say everything that I wanted to say, but, three weeks later, I've resigned myself to the fact that that is not going to happen, y'all.
Moxie follows a high school junior named Vivian Carter around for a school year as she goes from being a self-described "good girl" who's just trying to survive two more years of East Rockport High School's brand of misogyny to the unmasked mysterious founder of the Moxie Girl rebellion of East Rockport High School. You will laugh, you will cry, you will probably look up Bikini Kill's Rebel Girl before you finish this book. (Don't worry, I've got you covered.) Now, make sure you're comfortable before reading further.
Viv was raised in East Rockport, Texas by her mother, Lisa, a former riot grrrl turned nurse after the death of Viv's father. She grew up listening to her mom's old music and making their cat, Joan Jett, dance around to bands like Bikini Kill and Heavens to Betsy. Viv and her mom live right next door to her maternal grandparents who repeatedly praise Viv for being such a 'dutiful' good girl – unlike her 'rebellious' mother who 'was always looking for a fight'. Viv's mom's riot grrrl days are behind her, packed away in a shoebox in her closet labelled "My Misspent Youth", and she's just plain Nurse Lisa now, no signs of the blue-haired hardcore feminist to be seen – except hiding somewhere deep inside of her 16-year-old daughter as we'll all soon discover.
"I believe with my wholeheartmindbody that girls constitute a revolutionary soul force that can, and will, change the world for real."
- a Bikini Kill zine
I was outraged when I read the opening scene where the new girl, Lucy, is answering a question in Viv's English class and the jock du jour, Mitchell Wilson, interrupts her to tell her "make me a sandwich" and the teacher admonishes the entire class for acting childish and assigns them grammar exercises for the rest of the period as punishment. Among other things that I'll leave for you to read about, there's a March Madness bracket of East Rockport High's most fuckable girl that everybody in the town seems to know about and fathers even brag about their daughters making it into the top tiers. Which is creepy all on its own, right? The examples of blatant sexism portrayed in Moxie resonated with me as I read Moxie because I actually went to high school with a group of popular guys who wore t-shirts that read "F.B.I. – Female Body Inspector" and "Once you put my meat in your mouth you're going to swallow" and nobody really called them on it. I don't know why others didn't, but I was already getting a lot of flak for being a lot younger than my peers, I didn't want to be the 'not-fun one who couldn't take a joke'. So, I get where Viv was coming from, watching and feeling like she wanted to say something but not wanting to poke the bear. I'm ashamed to admit it, but yeah, I get why it took Viv so long to act. I'd like to think if I'd had a catalytic friend like Lucy, I'd have spoken up back then.
One of the things I enjoyed most about Moxie was how the idea of feminism wasn't an already known concept to every character in the book. Okay, obviously I didn't like it, I'd love if everyone grew up understanding the dynamics of feminism but not everybody has that privilege. Lucy was Viv's Obi-Wan of sorts, guiding her through 'Feminism 102'. Sara thought the Moxie zine was totally what East Rockport High School needed, but had a bit of an 'I'll do it if you do it' vibe at the beginning. Claudia was under the common misconception that feminism was anti-men and didn't want anything to do with the term. Kiera and Amaya wanted to know if Moxie Girls' feminism was inclusive or not. And Emma didn't see a point to the whole thing and spoke against the Moxie thing. But by the end of the book, East Rockport High School had some proud feminists.
My second favourite part of Moxie is the zines. Y'all. Whether you buy the kindle book, the ebook, or the physical book, you get the illustrated zines in your book as Viv publishes them (Yes, I did buy both the ebook and the kindle book to be sure). My personal favourite is the third zine, but I do love them all. The student body's reaction to each zine is different, you can actually see the Moxie Girls movement building up right before your eyes with the students' responses. There's a lot of buzz about the first zine, of course, but not too many girls actually go along with it because "what's the point?" But as the level of misogynistic nonsense rises, the more "Moxie Girls fight back!" becomes more than a phrase on a 'silly' zine sitting on the windowsill of the girls' lavatory.
And my favourite part of this marvelous book? The relationships between the young women of East Rockport High School. Aside from general clique behaviour during the first half of the book which is nowhere near as bad as it was in my high school (huge shout-out to my middle and high Schools where the popular white girls like to set up 'weird' girls to be raped - but there's no bullying there, right, Crisp County?). The young ladies in the book stopped minding the clique delineations and banded together throughout the book and became a powerful force of good. When Lucy and Viv are asked at a Moxie bake sale if the Moxie Girls thing was 'just for white girls', they quickly made it clear that Moxie is for every girl. They kept fighting, together, and that's beautiful.
Now, let's talk diversity since it is twentygayteen and all (that's right, I said it and I'll say it again. TWENTYGAYTEEN!). Moxie has a moderately diverse cast for that it doesn't really involve many people per se. It's a typical small Texas town high school centred around Vivian and her small circle of friends that begins to expand a smidgen as the story progresses. I would have loved to have seen more POC and LGBTQ representation, several of the named characters have Latinx names and Viv's childhood friend on the girls' soccer team, Kiera is black as is her friend, Amaya, I think? I've wracked my mind and my book and I don't even remember a single specially abled (I just heard that term in place of 'disabled' recently and I love it!) person. And as someone with so many 'special abilities', ouch! I've been a huge activist since I was 6 years old when my first grade teacher wanted to put my friend with Rett Syndrome in the corner and have us all ignore her and I went out of my way to include her. As for the LGBTQ community, there's two 'possibly' not-straight guys in the drama department at school (you can cringe there, I did) and a closeted couple that Viv stumbles across towards the end of the book. That's all the rainbow power there and as a card-carrying member of the Rainbow Society of Supreme Gaydom, I needed more gay in a book centring around the Riot Grrrl movement. The Riot Grrrl movement co-existed alongside Queercore in the 1990s and Heavens to Betsy and Excuse 17 were two bands that were active in both the Riot Grrrl scene and in Queercore. While I was researching the Riot Grrrl movement, I came across a bunch of zines from 'back in the day' (I feel so old saying that), and they preached a lot about inclusivity, how Riot Grrrl wasn't just for white girls or straight girls, and I But we're reading a book that's bringing up Riot Grrrls which tried to be inclusive in an era that's media was extremely selective of what they covered. And I really wish that Moxie had followed that premise a little better than reiterating 'Moxie is for every girl', I love the sentiment, but I'd have loved to have seen it represented in the story with more diverse characters. Although, definite points for quoting Audre Lorde. If you don't know, Audre Lorde was a poet and a black intersectional lesbian civil rights activist who died in 1992. Many people quote her, but a lot them just know that she's a poet. Hopefully, Moxie works to change that.
"Your silence will not protect you."
-Audre Lorde
Something that I wasn't too fond of was the Seth factor. Viv did what I see a lot of in relationships. Fight and make-up, over and over again, over the same issue basically. Seth is a moderate feminist, I guess you could say. He tries to be full-throttle, but he does a lot of the 'well, not all of us are like that'. We know it's not all of y'all guys being the problem but it's still the majority, dude... That's why we have to keep shouting. And when someone has a #MeToo moment (slight Trigger Warning for mention of forced groping, BTW), he fails the Boyfriend Test in my book. There's redemption and all, but it just pissed me off that this professed feminist didn't even hesitate on outcry, but pressed the 'how do we know it happened' button. As someone who struggled with her own rape and didn't admit it happened for years because my rapist was someone I hero-worshipped and considered a brother and I never reported it because who would believe me, I cried. I cried hard and ugly and my dogs had to bury me in a dogpile of love and I hate Seth's character for that.
Overall, Moxie made me reflect on current and past events in my life and in the world in general. It also reminded me of why I made the conscious decision to call myself a feminist as a teenager. It had its good points and its not-so-good points, like all books, but I believe it's a great introductory book to feminism for teenage girls. It teaches girls to have autonomy over their own persons and speak up for themselves even when the adults that are supposed to be looking out for them aren't. I know I'll definitely be adding it to the Feminist shelves of my little sister (10) and my niece (2) as they grow old enough to read it. My sister will love it, my stepmom, not so much. Mathieu writes a good book with characters you'll love and characters you'll hate, and moments where you have your 'this is why I'm a feminist' spark. I know it did with me. I wholeheartedly recommend you buy this book, for yourself, for the teen in your life, for the cover, for the story, for the zines.
I'm giving Moxie 4 stars and I hope you'll give it a read. Now before I go, some quick links of Jennifer Mathieu's from her Moxie girls fight back! site.

This has been another review on Once Upon a Time, I Read a Book and as per usual, I'm ending it with a charity I've noticed and a little snippet of life. My 2-year-old niece is pretty obsessed with Manatee the Service Dog and we've started introducing her to the concept of service dogs. She understands Manny has special tricks that help me, but she plays with him and climbs all over him off-duty, so it's important to teach her about how she can't play with him when we're shopping or at Disney or something because it's harder to deal with my health problems out in public. We took her to a no-pets holiday lights show and told her because he's wearing his special vest, he has to focus on helping me and she can't play with him. She was very good about it and even told other kids "Manatee's busy, don't pet." So cute, but so serious about it.
Following that lead, my charity for this post is Canine Companions for Independence, they're pretty amazing if you ask me. A few of my service dog friends have gotten their canine partners through them and they are amazing dogs.
Until next time, darling readers, have a happily ever after, and if you celebrate, happy Christmas!

Review of Total Bravery
Blog Tour - Release Blitz - Make You Mine


It's a simple story: old Herbert Pinnegar has spent his life as a gardener at 'the big house' shares his memories with us. His interest in ?owers and plants was aroused with the help and encouragement of the village schoolmistress. He won ?rst prize in the village fair's wild ?ower competition, and when "My Lady" presented him with the prize and whispered to him that he won because he had carefully cut the ?owers, not simply yanked them out of the ground as others had: thus began his lifelong devotion to plants, and to her.


But what types of functions would probably you are doing with this skillset you've accrued while having PhD? Down the page are a small amount of advice that will permit you to keep on working at a number of facts you seriously like – and even receive somewhat more function-way of life sense of balance on top of that! In the long run, no person over here wants to tell you you can't maintain your perfect to a full-time educational content.
Surely, the primary obstacle you're prone to stumble upon so long as you make application for employment outside academia is always that potential employers may be sceptical to your want to function in their field. The key is to handle the task as if it is prolonged, and dump your own self into the different programs – from training and researching to committee career and undergraduate administration – a full time lecturer would.
Pretty much all long term contract instructors state doing a little capacity of past due labor, and lastly the most common perks affiliated with scholastic occupation – along the lines of as fee based to complete your personal groundwork – are no-existent. Acquire helping pays usually &lb;6000 per unit, even so, the precise extent of your purpose may vary largely from willpower to control and element to element.
Terror accounts are all around all about the casualisation of educational labour and lecturers being long-term within the poverty range, hardly prepared to afford to be charged lease, eat food, and afford the method of travel charges to your workplace. Deal training poses Meanwhile, helping fellows are likely to be employed for a comparatively cheap process for showing large numbers of segments, although running wages are regularly much like the smallest rung concerning the "lecturer" step ladder, coaching fellows normally have a significantly larger instructing place than their peers hired on lectureships, and correspondingly very little time to waste on their research.
At 1 terminate of our range, you will be considered necessary in order to supply somebody else's equipped lectures and mark 60 jobs throughout the expression; around the other extreme perhaps you may wind up marking thousands of essays and writing enormous element written content from the beginning. On one side, you can set the complete-time spent institution status regarding your CV – and therefore opposition for your placements is fairly substantial.
Postdocs are nearly as extremely competitive as extended academic responsibilities for this reason, if you get model it's an incredible approve that you're on your path.
