In this conversation, Julie and I dig into the three P’s of people management: people, process, and purpose-and it’s a good idea to create a user guide to. But most of us aren’t handed a manual on how to become an effective manager of other people-we learn by fumbling through the job. You serving as a multiplier in your business means exponential returns are possible (including exponentially reducing your time). Instead, if you hire a small team and teach them how to make the lemonade, even if they’re not quite as skilled as you at first, you’ll be serving a multiplicative role. But if you only ever make lemonade you’ll only be serving an additive role in your business. In her book, The Making of a Manager: What To Do When Everyone Looks To You, author Julie Zhuo takes us back to the childhood lemonade stand in a way that flipped a major “aha” lightbulb switch for me.Īs the founder of a budding business, you might be the best at making lemonade, or at least think you are, even as you hire helpers to (wo)man the stand.

7/4/2023 0 Comments Edge of glory rachel spanglerAs their time together stretches on, both women must confront not only their assumptions about each other, but also their own world views amidst a steamy landscape of temptation, power, purpose and raw attraction. The complications only escalate as the two set out on a scorching path through a region that shatters all expectations. The plan seems simple enough until she meets Loreto Molina, and it quickly becomes apparent that Loreto knows more than her casual demeanor might suggest. Refusing to repeat their mistakes, she hires a guide, translator, and purveyor of Andalucían culture for the week leading up to her big meeting. The job should be easy, but many others have failed. When Simone Price lands in southern Spain, she has one job upon which the future of her entire career rests: She must convince a small, Spanish publishing house to sell their business to her much larger American corporation. They only need to work together, but the heat and the history around them and between them conspires to demand so much more. Simone and Loreto don’t have to like each other. 7/4/2023 0 Comments Queenie alex haley2-Year-Old for Zachary Johnson and Hannah Hurst, Tunbridge, VT.

Reviews aren't verified, but Google checks for and removes fake content when it's identified. But war is, after all, simply the greatest of all crimes-and it’s Sir Samuel’s sworn duty to seek out criminal masterminds wherever they may be hiding.and lock them away before they can do any real damage. Gollancz, 2014 - Discworld (Imaginary place) - 377 pages. Unfortunately, the historically disputed lump of land called Leshp is once again floating directly between Ankh-Morpork and the city of Al-Khali on the coast of Klatch-which is spark enough to ignite that glorious international pastime called “war.” Pressed into patriotic service, Commander Sam Vimes thinks he should be leading his loyal watchmen, female watchdwarf, and lady werewolf into battle against local malefactors rather than against uncomfortably well-armed strangers in the Klatchian desert. I have issued a complimentary credit to your account, which you can use towards another audio book of your choice. It isn’t much of an island that rises up one moonless night from the depths of the Circle Sea-just a few square miles of silt and some old ruins.

Several standard practices were found to ensure the rigour and fairness of admissions procedures, such as the adoption of a centralised rather than a decentralised model, the setting of written examinations as a default assessment method, and the highlighting of tangible past achievements, especially pre-doctoral research outputs. The results show that the admissions procedures tend to highlight previous research and academic merit, which is to be expected for entry to doctoral studies but nonetheless seems to presuppose that all PhD students will follow an academic career path. A content analysis was performed on doctoral admissions texts (N = 312) from 264 faculties of C9 League universities, representing China's elite research-intensive universities. This study examines the procedures, criteria, and decision-making in doctoral admissions at China's leading research universities. 7/4/2023 0 Comments Losing lila by sarah aldersonI really liked how they handle all their problems and eventually work everything out – this book is more focussed on their relationship than Hunting Lila, but doesn’t take anything away from the action. Not only do the two of them have to redefine their roles as it becomes clear that Lila can protect herself better than before, they have to deal with the reactions from Lila’s brother and father. I really liked this book and am sad to let Lila go – I’ve had a blast reading her adventures!The thrills and spills in this book (and there are many) are perfectly balanced by the humour provided by Suki and Nate – the younger members of Demos’ crew – and the growing relationship between Alex and Lila. This book focussed more on Lila’s relationship with various members of her family and her coming to accept the powers she has as a gift. An undeniably awesome sequel, Losing Lila picks up the action with Lila and Alex on the run and throws readers into an exhilarating adventure as they try and evade the Unit and rescue Lila’s family. Corporate medicine, totally controlled by Big Pharma, prevented their doctors from saving lives with known cures such as Ivermectin and HCQ. In effect, the media whores are killing people for profit.Īlmost the only people who died from Covid were the elderly with prior morbidities who were denied treatment until it was too late, and then the corporate medicine hospitals killed them with ventilators. The whore media keeps telling us that Covid killed millions of Americans and we must all have shots and endless boosters to stay alive. All who are not employed by Big Pharma, have no grants from Big Pharma, and have no consultancies with Big Pharma understand that the mRNA “vaccines†are more deadly than the Covid virus. No independent medical scientist that I know of supports a word of the official narrative. The presstitutes are paid millions of dollars in Big Pharma advertising for the purpose of suppressing all truth about Covid and the alleged vaccines. Here we have more conclusive proof of Tucker Carlson’s reporting that ABC, NBC, CNN and the rest of the whore media are loyal to their profits and not to truth. 7/3/2023 0 Comments Hall of smoke hm longIf you are catching a connecting flight at Heathrow, please note that smoking is not permitted during the connection process. However, please be aware that once you have passed through security control, you will not be able to smoke anywhere in the departure lounge. Smoking is permitted in designated areas outside the terminal building. Heathrow is a smoke-free airport, in line with British law on smoking in enclosed public spaces. The map images above with the smoking symbols are official airport maps. On the contrary, it explicitly states that smoking is prohibited in all areas of Heathrow Airport. I’m not sure why the Heathrow website does not list these two smoking area. Smoking Still Officially “Prohibited” at London Heathrow You’ll have to step outside to smoke in the cage. At the lower level of the terminal, where the busses pick up and drop off passengers for inter-terminal transfer, look for the smoking sign. In Terminal 3, a similar cage exists, but it on the arrivals floor. His terrifying portrayal and the inventive work of the cast and crew would give the film the authentic power of nightmare, even while the gritty, grueling, and often dangerous independent production would test everyone involved, and lay the foundations for myths surrounding the film that endure even today. A six-foot-four poet fresh out of grad school with limited acting experience, Gunnar Hansen played the masked, chain-saw-wielding Leatherface. Banned and celebrated, showcased at the Cannes film festival and included in the New York MoMA's collection, it has now come to be recognized widely as one of the greatest horror movies of all time. To critics, it was either "a degrading, senseless misuse of film and time" or "an intelligent, absorbing and deeply disturbing horror film." However it was an immediate hit with audiences. When The Texas Chain Saw Massacre first hit movie screens in 1974 it was both reviled and championed. 7/3/2023 0 Comments Something New by Lucy KnisleyI will read anything and everything that she publishes. This graphic novel, Something New, is the story of how Lucy built a barn, invented a whole new kind of photo booth, and managed to turn an outdoor wedding on a rainy day into a joyous (though muddy) triumph.Ĭlick on this graphic to explore the book page on LibraryThing! Review So she set out to plan and execute the adorable DIY wedding to end all adorable DIY weddings. It is the story of what came after: The Wedding.ĭIY maven Lucy Knisley was fascinated by American wedding culture… but also sort of horrified by it. Three long, lonely years later, John returned to New York, walked into Lucy’s apartment and proposed. In 2010, Lucy and her long-term boyfriend John broke up. I’ve recommended it to so many brides and their friends (to give to the bride when she is stressed) in the past year since it’s release in May 2016. And lucky for me, this book came out right when I was in the thick of wedding planning and was a major source of stress relief. As my first wedding anniversary quickly approaches in the middle of this month, I figured it time I share this review! Lucy Knisley has been a favorite author of mine for the past two years and I love how she chronicles what is going on in her life. |
