Brahmo Balika Shikshalaya - the championing the cause of good education in West Bengal.

Impact on Education
>> Brahmo Balika Shikhshalaya
Brahmo Balika Shikshalaya
The Brahmo Balika Shikshalaya was founded on 16th May 1890. At that time much stress was laid on the spreading of emancipation of women and the spread of women's education. The Christian missionaries had set up a few schools in and around Calcutta. Later on enthusiasts like
Raja Rammohun Roy
Debendranath Tagore
, Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, Peary Charan Sarkar,
Keshub Chandra Sen
, Durgamohan Das,
The School Motto
The school motto is
or respect,
or praying, and
or service. These three were formulated at the very initial stages to inspire the students.
Dwarkanath Ganguli, Ananda Mohan Bose led to the opening of a number of schools for women. Amongst the foreign workers were Derozio and Bethune along with Miss Cook and Miss Ackroyd. Apart from Bethune school, Bangiya Mahila Vidyalaya, Victoria College were 50 such schools which were receiving grants from the government.
Founding and the initial years
At around 1890, the Executive Committee of the
Sadharan Brahmo Samaj
decided that they needed to open a school for the young boys and girls. Ananda Mohan Bose
mentioned that there was a need to set up an institution for true education, not that which is laid out in the pages of books. The children will sit on the carpet and read. Accordingly a school was opened on 16th May, 1890 at 13 Cornwallis Street, where 15 young boys and girls sat on a carpet and commenced their education. The monthly fee was Rs. 2 only. A hostel was formed soon after and in 1893, Brahmo Balika Shikshalaya became a boarding school. Dwarkanath Ganguli felt that formal education was not enough for women. If they were to be the mothers of the future citizens of India they also needed to learn home science, hygiene, medicine, cookery etc.
In the initial years the fledgling
school was nurtured by
Sivnath Shastri
. He formalised the curriculum and the rules governing the institution. He was ably supported by Upendra Kishore RoyChowdhury, Ananda Mohan Bose, Dwarkanath Ganguli, Labanyaprabha Basu etc. With the help of Durgamohan Das, the school grew and in the next year the number of students increased to 63 and reached the entrance level in the third year. In 1894 - Sisir Kr. Bagchi and Pramada Das qualified for the entrance examination. This fame brought in more students but space and funds were the main constraints.
When the governing body of the Sadharan Brahmo Samaj were debating whether to shift the school at some suburban location to reduce running costs, Dwarkanath Ganguli mortgaged his land and came up with the required funds. But his untimely death in 1898 led to paucity of funds again. At this time Kalinarayan Roy stepped
in with funds and the school shifted to a bigger house in 56 Mirzapur Street. The government also agreed to aid the school.
New location
In 1903 a plot of land along with a house was purchased on Upper Circular Road. Mary Carpenter Trust of the Indian National Association and the British and Foreign Unitarian Association and the local people donated money to set up the first school building Mary Carpenter Hall.
Contribution of Lady Abala Bose
Lady Abala Bose, wife of Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose, was the secretary of the school from 1910 - 1936. Her organisational capacity along with her foresight and enthusiasm transformed the school into a top ranking institution at that time. In 1916 the Durgamohan Bhavan was constructed. In 1928 the old house was rebuilt into a girls hostel and renamed Ananda Mohan Bhavan. Bose wanted that the children should not only be good students but be properly disciplined in all spheres of life and have high moral values. With these in mind she taught the girls cooking and nursing, horticulture, music and arts, sculpture, cane and needlework. Stress was also laid on physical fitness - stick fighting, fighting with daggers, jujitsu, tennis, basketball etc. all formed part of the curriculum.
The students excelled in all disciplines and Ashrukana Sanyal and Roma Das stood first in 1922 and 1927 respectively. Bose also had the willing help of Miss Florence Saker as principal and tutors like Surendranath Banerjee and Pulin Das.
In 1921 a free primary school was set up for the needy children and the teachers and students of the school helped to spread education amongst these children. Bose also implemented the Montessori method of education at the pre primary level and Nalini Raha was sent to Rome to be trained in this discipline. After her return the first Montessori trained school was set up in Calcutta.
The Montessori Section
The Montessori Section was started in January 1930 and was the first Montessori
School in India. Miss Mayalata Shome and Miss Nalini Raha were sent abroad to get the Montessori training under the supervision of Madam Montessori.
Nalini Raha improvised the teaching methodology and made it as same as the developed countrys by using some indigenous teaching aids like inset, blocks, spindle & abacus for learning mathematics, paper cutting etc. She invented some unusual festival like Doll Festival, Community Picnic etc which were remarkable at that time.
The War years
During the Second World War - the school was shifted from Calcutta to Madhupur as the military occupied the school. The girls stayed in the hostel to continue with their studies.
Back to Calcutta
In 1945 the school returned back to its original home in Calcutta. Most of the furniture either had to be bought or repaired. Within a very short period the school started functioning as before. Also the school was fortunate to have Miss Saker as one of the principals.
The school has completed its centenary on 16th May 1990 and even now this school can boast as one of the premier educational institution for girls in Calcutta. Among its wings are the Montessori, Primary, Secondary and Higher Secondary sections.

Retiring to Spain is a dream for many. The idea of living out your golden years on the golden Spanish Costas is a retirement goal for thousands of brits, and year after year, we see more and more expatriate retirees buying property all along the coast.
But what if we told you that you don´t have to wait until retirement?
If your dream is to live in Spain, then why wait until retirement to fulfill your dreams? You can move to Spain today and start living your life where you want to be while you´re still young and hungry for life.
Often when we mention this to people, we´re immediately bombarded with the same old questions;
What about work? How do I overcome the language barrier? What about health care? How will I be able to survive in a foreign country?
Well, these are all "problems" that are actually easier to overcome for someone in their younger years, than if you were a retiree.
Yo no hablo Español!
Starting with the language barrier, it´s well-known that it´s much easier to learn a foreign language when you´re younger. I won´t go into the ins and outs of why this is, but the fact of the matter is, it´s true.
Would you rather retire to Spain and face the language barrier, or reach your retirement years and comfortably be able to communicate with the locals and get on with your life without the need of translators?
I moved here 6 years ago, without knowing a word of Spanish! Now, I can comfortably have a Spanish conversation without even thinking about it. Would I have been able to do this is my later years? Probably not.
Now, I´m not saying that you can just move to Spain when you´re younger and you´ll automatically learn Spanish, that really isn´t the case.
I know more than a handful of young Brits in Spain that have spent more than half of their life in Spain, yet they still have less Spanish vocabulary than a 2-year-old.
To overcome the language barrier, there are several things that you can do to help speed up the process, and none of them include downloading an app!
- Throw yourself in at the deep end – rent a property in a very Spanish area.
- Learn English first! You simply can´t learn another language without first knowing why you say what you say in your own language. Hint: Start off with the terminology of tenses.
- Anticipate situations where you´ll need to use Spanish ahead of time. If you´re going to the local barbershop and you know you´re going to need to say "short back and sides and a trim on top", then learn the vocab beforehand – Don´t try to wing it!
- If you´re going to translate, then translate in context – Reverso Context is the best by far!
- Learn words and phrases that you´ll use – There no point in writing a list of 10 words every week if you´re not going to use them.
- Learn sentence stems that you can use in different scenarios. For example; "Me podrías poner…" (Could I have a…)
Using these techniques will help you develop your language learning skills and will make life in Spain a lot easier!
Now, what about work?
How can you work in Spain without speaking the language?
Given that the Spanish economy relies heavily on tourism, there are always jobs available for young English speakers.
When I first moved to Spain, I was immediately offered a job teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL). I had no qualifications, I didn´t speak Spanish, and I definitely didn´t have any teaching experience, but thats exactly the way the academies in Spain want you!
English academies will be able to provide you will all the training that you need, provide you with all the materials you need, and will often help find you find accommodation before you even arrive in the country.
A typical take-home salary of an English teacher in Spain, with 25 hours of classes a week, is around 1,100€ a month!
And what about accommodation?
I was lucky enough to have a friend that I could crash with until I found my own apartment, so I didn´t take the academy up on their offer of finding accommodation.
But within 3 months I´d found a place with my girlfriend who I´d met in Spain.
A 3 bed 2 bath apartment for 350€ a month about 8km from where I was working!
I was genuinely shocked at how cheap this was considering how much I was paying in the UK, but looking at the market, it was actually above average for the area.
I literally went from paying well over £1,200 a month in rent to just 175€, in less than 6 months.
Will I be entitled to Healthcare?
So that´s work and accommodation sorted. So what about healthcare?
Well, before you can actually start working, you need an NIE number and a National Security Number, but thankfully, that was all sorted and arranged by the academy.
After all, they need their workers to be legal before being able to write up a working contract.
So, seeing as you now have all your paperwork in place, and you have a work contract, then you´ll be entitled to state healthcare.
You just have to register with the local medical center and present them with all the documents you have. (Take literally every piece of paper you have!)
Getting out and about
Now, what about a car? You´re going to need some transport! For the first 6 months of living in Spain, I was using my car from the UK, but seeing as you´re only legally allowed to do this for 6 months, I had to find an alternative.
So I started renting cars! I was nervous at first because I´d heard so many horror stories about Spanish car rental companies, but it actually worked out really well.
When I first started searching, I was getting quotes around 300€ for a 2 week rental of a measly little Fiat 500. But then I changed my search criteria to 4-5 weeks.
Surprisingly, the prices went down dramatically! Most months I was paying less than 150€ a month.
I wondered why this was, but it turns out that if you´re booking for 2 weeks, then chances are you´re a holidaymaker, so they charge you holidaymaker prices.
If I remember rightly, the best deal I had was a Range Rover Evoque for 178€ for the month!
Understandably, the academy I was working at didn´t like this, as the parents of the students were starting to wonder why a TEFL teacher was driving around in a 40k Range Rover, but never mind!
The cost of living
Taking all of the above into account, how much is left to live on and how far does it go?
Well, on 1,100€ a month for 25 hours a week, I had about 700€ a month to spare, which doesn´t seem like much, but considering a beer costs a euro, a fancy(ish) restaurant could cost around 40€ PP, I was living pretty well considering I wasn´t working half of the hours I was working in the UK, and I was able to top up those 25 hours with extra classes for 12 euro an hour.
At this point, I had just turned 24, I had my own apartment in Spain, I was driving around in brand new cars, and I had money to save.
So there you have it! It can be done, you don´t have to wait until retirement, and you can live a good life.
Living in Murcia has also had some positive effects on my health, my diet and general well-being… Why wait?

US, Canada coordinating closely regarding Nijjar killing: US State dept spokesperson Miller
Recently, Justin Trudeau, the prime minister of Canada, claimed that Nijjar's shooting death was orchestrated by the Indian government.
The clash over Jackson's statue is part of the latest movement in the protests: tearing down statues and monuments to individuals linked to the US' racist past.
Thousands of protesters tried to topple the statue of a former US president near the White House Monday evening as police responded with pepper spray to break up new demonstrations that erupted in Washington.
A wave of nationwide rallies calling for racial justice has swept the United States since the May 25 death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
On Monday, many demonstrators were pushed back by at least 100 security force personnel after they had thrown ropes around the statue of Andrew Jackson, the divisive seventh US president, in Lafayette Park.
Jackson, in office from 1829 to 1837, owned more than 500 slaves over the course of his life and was a key figure in the forced relocation of at least 60,000 Native Americans, otherwise known as the Trail of Tears.
"We had ropes, chains, a pulley to pull, and we were going to attach that and tear down the statue," a 20-year-old protester told AFP, on condition of anonymity.
A helicopter circled over the gathering of hundreds of people on the newly-renamed Black Lives Matter Plaza, as officers continued to use pepper spray to disperse the protesters.
Earlier this month, police broke up a peaceful rally in Lafayette Park moments before President Donald Trump walked from the White House for a photo-op at a historic church damaged by arson the previous night.
The clash over Jackson's statue is part of the latest movement in the protests: tearing down statues and monuments to individuals linked to the US' racist past.
On Sunday, one person died and 11 more were wounded in a shooting in the US city of Minneapolis.
Minneapolis has been a centre of anti-racism and police brutality protests that have spread across the US since George Floyd, a black man, died while being restrained by a white officer.
Trump has delivered blunt instructions to local leaders confronting the protests, telling authorities to "dominate the streets," and he has been unapologetic about the heavy deployment of forces.

Biden 'disappointment' presents opportunity for Republicans who weigh up second act of Trump show
In a YouGov poll this month, more than half of Americans (54%) said they disapprove of the way Joe Biden has been handling his job, with only 37% approving. The president has been a disappointment for many who chose him.
Wednesday 27 July 2022 11:23, UK
There was a small but noisy crowd waiting to greet Donald Trump for his return to 'the swamp'.
"Indict Donald Trump" they chanted outside a hotel hosting the America First Agenda Summit where the former US president was the star speaker.
Mr Trump has not set foot in Washington DC since January last year when he'd used the presidential helicopter one last time to leave the White House rather than attend the inauguration of his successor.
Now nearly 18 months on, he was back, and watching him was like going back in time. The style, the catchphrases, the untruths? They were all there.
"I ran a second time and I did much better; we got millions of votes. And you knew what? That's gonna be remembered for a long time. What a disgrace it was but we may just have to do it again!" he said.
"Four more years!" the crowd chanted.
"Never forget, everything this corrupt establishment is doing to me is all about preserving their power and control over the American people," he said.
"They want to damage (me) in any form but they really want to damage me so I can no longer go back to work for you. And I don't think that's going to happen."
"We gather today on the verge of a historic midterm election," he said. "The American people are poised to reject the failed reign of Joe Biden... in a momentous landslide. This is an incredible opportunity."
The former US president has yet to confirm that he is running again for the presidency, but he has been in constant campaign mode since he left office.
His rallies, across the country, are consistently dismissed as background noise by many, but they prove too that he is still a leader for his followers.
The evidence from the inquiry into the Capitol riots on 6 January 2021 has been genuinely revealing.
Testimony under oath from White House insiders, one-time loyalists, Republican Party loyalists exposed the extent of Donald Trump's involvement those riots.
He rallied the mob, he chose not to tell them to stand down and he dismissed advice from his own people, even his family, insisting then, he still does, that he won the 2020 election.
But if there was a view that the riots and the two impeachments would disqualify Trump, was that well wide of the mark? Have we only seen act one of Trump's America?
It certainly says something about where the United States is right now that Donald Trump can feel comfortable to be poised to run again.
The midterms are just a few months away and Joe Biden is in trouble.
In a YouGov poll this month, more than half of Americans (54%) said they disapprove of the way Mr Biden has been handling his job, with only 37% approving. He has been a disappointment for many who chose him.
It presents a real opportunity for the Republican Party which is now weighing up a second act of the Trump show.
Or is there another candidate who can develop Trumpism without Trump?
Watch for announcements from former secretary of state Mike Pompeo, former US ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and many others.
Trump's one-time wingman, Vice-President Mike Pence just happened to be in Washington on the same day as his former boss, now eyeing his own run.
All the potential candidates are aware that they need Trump's base to stand any chance, such is the enduring power of 'The Donald'.
The biggest banner outside the Washington hotel where Mr Trump was speaking said simply: "LOSER".
The fact is that Donald Trump was the loser last time around. It's a fact established by investigations, by audits and by Mr Trump's own staff who told him at the time to concede.
So why does he continue to look back to the 2020 election? Because he knows that he has convinced so many millions of people to believe that he was the rightful winner.
A recent poll suggested as many as 70% of Republican voters believe the election was stolen from Trump.
But within the Republican Party itself, they want to move on - to focus on the future. They will rally around him for another shot at the White House if he drops his obsession with the past.
If he doesn't, then another candidate who can develop Trumpian policies with coherence and less controversy will emerge. And that candidate will become Trump's biggest challenge.

I really loved this!!
I, too, have enjoyed seeing other vlogs in blog world and your right, it is more personal. :)
I like your voice! It fits the kind of person I imagine you to be and what I have gathered from your blog. There is a very sweet girl in my Bible study, a few years older than me, and she is just so encouraging and sweet and her voice is tiny too. :)
Good job on the thrift store finds!! I have found great clothes at thrift stores. One skirt I have is a long, black DKNY skirt that I wear to church. It was probably only a few dollars.
I haven't been in a while but keep meaning to go because I need some new clothes but I hate paying full price or even not so great sale prices for clothes. I look at the piece of clothing I want and I think "that is so not worth x amount of dollars...." I really like quality clothing and the "banana republic" look so I hope I find some good deals when I go.
Maybe I should just go tomorrow instead of putting it off! :-)
P.S. I, too, was encouraged by Sarah Mae's blog, her skirts were so cute! I actually got a couple pair this past week...just a denim to the knee and a khaki one...I need to find some fun summer ones now. :)

GREAT job!!!!!!!
I'm all about the thrifting, but how do you do it with three small children in tow?!!

I love thrifting, too! We have a little thrift store in our teeny town, it's the ministry of a church and all their clothes, adult and kids, are $1 a bag! I took my SIL there when she visited a couple weeks ago & we both made some great finds! :)
- April 21, 2010 at 2:11 PM
Wow, I don't think I would be brave enough. I really enjoyed your v-blog. Thank you! BTW. I really like the twirly skirt ;)

I got to work with the October Main kit & add on- and it had the adorable Monstrosity line from Sassafrass that I had been dying to get my hands on! Monsters & my kiddos seem to go hand in hand.
I loved that I could do some bright, colorful, and quirky projects with this kit, along with some elegant, fanciful, and autumn-ish (yeah, it's a word) projects.
These birdhouses are in the craft section of Walmart. They have different styles, and they are around $2! I am a little bit addicted to them right now!
I found these wooden hangers in packs of two in the Target Dollar Spot. (Okay, seriously, where would scrappers be without that wonderful place?!) You'd better believe I grabbed quite a few of them for future projects! ;)
You can check out more designs from this kit here.
Thanks again, Trish, for this fun opportunity!

What does one write in a first post? A new beginning? A fresh start? The first step? It has always been hard for me to start a new project. Be it an article a large work of programming or cleaning my room. It is hard to start. The first step is always the hardest. It is easy to proceed if the project is interesting enough.
The question that begs to be answered with this project is why? I already have a journal, so why create a separate blog? What do I hope to achieve? How will this be different? Do I plan on maintaining two publishing outlets?
My journal - Blue Swiss Cheese, or The blues side of the moon - is, and remains to be a journal of what I've been up to. A collection of writings aimed at the community nature of livejournal. A space to jot down informal thoughts, birthday wishes, opinions and reports of meetings with interesting persons.
On the other side of the moon, I hope to publish articles of a more technical or documentary nature. I'd like to move my restaurant reviews here, my series on web standards, and my travelogues too. I'd like to categorise articles, although I'm still not sure how. This space will have more articles rather than posts, language will, I hope, be more formal, or less casual at the least.
Well, so much for an editorial, if I may call this one. Let the writing begin.

Mess was everywhere! Things were stuffed, tucked and smashed into corners. My closet was swollen, about to burst like the mouths of hungry squirrels storing too many nuts in their cheeks. I was tripping over shoes, and constantly being pummeled under a falling volcano of folded sweatshirts or tumbling shoe boxes. This weekend, I decided that I had had enough. Some things had to go.
Allow me to set the stage for you. I own a four bedroom house, but the closets in this house is better suited for a single, food-deprived, college student who owns a cat. Why a cat? I don't know. Just roll with it. It seems metaphorically right.
So, this closet has two shelves, which makes for three levels of clothing. That sounds like a lot until I tell you that my husband and I can just barely stand in this closet at the same time, and we better not intend to make any moves that require us to turn around while another one is grabbing something off the shelf. That is an open and accepted invitation to get an unintentional elbow to the eye, chest or knee. So, when I tell you this closet is small, it's small okay. Giant in a treehouse small.
I decided that the only way that I was going to get anywhere was to pull everything out, take inventory on what was and was not serving me, and make decisions about what I allowed to stay in that space.
Of course there were clothes, but there were also shoes, and coats, and hats, and belts, and ties, and handbags, and store bags, and receipts, and of course, all the snacks I buy that I have to hide from my children if I want any chance of enjoying them. Hey! Don't judge me. Judge yourself. As a mom, I have very few pleasures, and hidden, Little Debbie Cakes in my closet is one of them.
Anyway, as I was cleaning, I realized that this was not only therapeutic, but it was necessary, as my closet mirrored my life: crowded and stuffed with stuff that I no longer needed or used. I mean, it was once relevant, but the time, place, and space once required was no longer needed, but yet, I held on to it. Most times, it was filed under the "just in case" clause. My lesson that day was to start with my closet, but to finish with my life, and to apply the same strategy. I needed to sit down and evaluate everything that was taking up space in my life and decide, ask three questions: 1.) Do I keep it in my bedroom close? 2.) Do I move it to another space in the house where it's not as close, but I can go grab it when I need it? 3.) Do I usher it out of the house completely never to be seen again?
So, I evaluated my life using the same strategy I used to clean out my closet.
1.) Pull everything out: Every life experience, every conversation, every incident, every heartache, heartbreak, disappointment, success, triumph, every argument, every failure….all of it. I pulled it all out. I wrote it down. I literally looked at everything that was "crowding my life".
2.) Take inventory on what was and was not serving me: I had to then decide to continue to hold on to each piece or to let it go. Some of it was hard to do because I've had it and carried it for so long. Some of it I have replayed in my head every day since it happened; so, it still felt fresh like an open wound even though it was decades-old pain. This is not to make light of my tragedies. They did hurt; they do hurt, and they come with an everlasting sting, but I realized that some stuff just wasn't serving me. Instead, it was hindering my relationships with new people because of old people. Some things were keeping me in a place of fear or comfort, afraid to fail again, to look foolish in front of folk. So, I had to decide, "Am I going to use this?" or "Am I going to allow it to keep taking up space in the head, my heart and my life when I would rather have some joy or love there instead?"
3.) Make decisions about what I allowed to stay in my space: Like my closet after clean-out, I honestly feel lighter. I finally have some breathing room. I am not naive enough to believe that life won't hand me more experiences and people to replace what I have just re-located or thrown out, but that's when I know that I'll have to take inventory again.
I don't know if it's the end of the year or if it's the beginning of a new season of my life as I teeter on the brink of turning 40, but whatever it is, I am thankful for the understanding and wisdom this era of life has brought me.
Take inventory.
I wish you all love, peace, prosperity, and, of course, a day to put yourself first and free up some space in your head, your heart and your life if it's too crowded with stuff that no longer serves you.
Love, Lexcee

How to Land Your Dream Job in Customer Success
Welcome to our blog series CSM from the Trenches, a community for frontline Customer Success Managers (CSMs) that discusses trends, best practices, and advice for the frontline.
Being on the CSM frontline allows us to directly influence the success of our clients. I love that; as our clients are successful, we're successful. Each day we learn from the trenches what it takes to make clients happy and successful.
Let's get started with this week's post!
From: Steve McDougal, VP of Customer Success
Company: Preqin Solutions / Dynamo Software
Location: London, United Kingdom
Steve is a life coach with over 10 years of hiring, growing and leading successful international Customer Success teams.
Do a quick job search on LinkedIn for "Customer Success" and you'll find over 186,000 job opportunities across the globe. Customer success roles are popping up all over the place, and not just in the usual tech hubs such as Silicon Valley, London, New York, Dublin and Berlin.
New customer success jobs are being created every day, and along with those new jobs, more and more people are applying for these roles. New graduates and employees from other departments are flocking to join the Customer Success department, eager to help increase customer loyalty and drive revenue growth.
With the increase in competition, I often get asked, "How do I land my dream job in Customer Success and stand out from the crowd?".
First, I think it's important that you figure out what kind of a Customer Success Manager you want to be. There are a wide spectrum of Customer Success roles out there and you need to decide which of these roles is best for you. Do you want to negotiate large contract renewals, be a trusted advisor, or be a customer support representative? I'll explore each of these roles below.
The Customer Success Job Spectrum
- Renewal & Upsell Specialist – Role requires having upsell and retention revenue quotas. Responsible for negotiating contract renewals and growing professional services revenue. May be required to scope out billable projects and act as a project manager.
- Trusted Advisor – Role requires deep domain expertise and becoming a subject matter expert. The primary focus is on product adoption and utilization of software. May be required to deliver training sessions and workshops.
- Customer Service – Role requires a customer support mentality. The focus is on servicing the customer with specific requests and providing in-person or telephone support.
Many of the roles you apply for may require a combination of the different aspects on the spectrum. So figure out what aligns to your skill set and motivations.
Searching for the Right Job
Now that you've figured out what type of role appeals to you, you can start the job search. Here are some tips when searching for the right job:
- Check out sites like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Indeed. Search for titles like "customer success manager", "director of customer success", or "customer success representative".
- Update your Linkedin profile to highlight the experiences and skills that are similar to the job you are searching for.
- Connect to people who work at the companies you are interested in. Offer to take them out for a coffee or lunch in exchange for the "Inside View" on Customer Success and company priorities. If you live in a remote location suggest a telephone call.
- Create strong personal links and gain a deeper understanding of the company. This will put you in a much stronger position to secure that all important interview and will make you appear more informed and impress the hiring team. You really want to know "What does Customer Success look like in your company?" , "How much influence does Customer Success have?" "Does the head of customer success have a seat on the Executive team?".
- Leverage employee referral programs. Existing employees may receive an incentive for recommending successful hires, so it's in their interest to recommend you to directly to the hiring manager.
- Read Blogs on Customer Success software websites and attend local Customer Success meet up events so that you can learn about the key trends and topics.
In recent years, customer retention has taken center stage, requiring larger investments in the people, processes, and technology needed to retain customers and sustain revenue growth. And this is all great news for anyone interested in starting a career in Customer Success. The opportunity to get a job in the customer success department has never been greater.
Good luck in your job search!

What has happened to the BNM?
The French National Metrology Office (BNM) has been closed and its missions were transferred to the French National metrology and test laboratory (LNE) on 1 January 2005. Decree N° 2005-49, published on 25 January 2005, amending decree N° 78-280, published on 10 March 1978 relating to the National Test Laboratory is the official text defining the new missions of the LNE. Note that the name of the LNE has changed. It is now called the "National metrology and test laboratory", but the acronym LNE is still used.

This is a work in progress. As time goes by, I hope to add more publications, fill in lots more details, and give some sense as to what these publications were all about. Please contact me if you can help.
The Atlantic Advocate
Cape Breton Highlander
The 4th ESTATE
The Maritime Labour Herald
MicMac News
New Maritimes
The Mysterious East
The Plain Dealer
The Square Deal
The Atlantic Advocate
The Atlantic Advocate was published by leaders of Halifax's Black community during World War 1. The Nova Scotia Archives has four issues online.
Cape Breton Highlander
I discussed the Cape Breton Highlander here, and then Silver Don Cameron commented:
The Highlander was a wonderful paper, always getting into trouble. I remember Sandy Campbell, the big, bluff, cigar-smoking publisher, responding to one of his prominent critics with, "What can you expect from a pig but a grunt?" There was a kind of informal network of alternative publications in the region at the time (and beyond the region, too). We at The Mysterious East often ran stuff that had appeared elsewhere (e.g. in The Last Post, in Montreal), and my own writing (I wasn't Silver yet) occasionally appeared in The Highlander, The Fourth Estate, The Square Deal (in Charlottetown) and The Alternate Press (St. John's, NL). It was a great period. Keith Davey's Senate Committee on Mass Media dubbed the alternative press across the country "the Volkswagen Press," viewing us as a challenge to the mainstream not unlike the challenge to mainstream automakers posed by the Beetle. I think the only survivor is The Georgia Straight in Vancouver. I'm really happy Katie Campbell is digitizing The Highlander. It shouldn't be forgotten.
Katie Campbell's description of The Highlander reflects its earliest years, when a broad group with diverse views guided the publication. Unfortunately, control gradually shifted to the Campbell brothers, who were ardent Liberal partisans. For the last 3-4 years of its existence, the paper shilled incessantly for the Liberal Party, which was by then the government of the day in Nova Scotia. This was hardly radical, let alone subversive. By the end, it was pro-government, utterly predictable, and boring. Still, it would be great to see it digitized and on line.
The 4th ESTATE
I wrote about The 4th ESTATE last year. The Nova Scotia Archives has every issue online.
The Maritime Labour Herald
Drew Moore pointed me to the Maritime Labour Herald, and says that Chapter Six of The Company Storeby John Mellor gives a good history of the paper.
Archie Kennedy wrote about the paper in 2007:
The Maritime Labour Herald, the first of Cape Breton's working class papers, was set up in the fall of 1921 by two militant trade unionists –, J.B. McLachlan and D.N.Brodie. The initial capital was raised among the locals of the UMW and privately. The first issue, published on October 14, 1921, launched the paper's remarkable five-year career with a clear statement of where the paper's heart lay:
The Maritime Labour Herald is different from other papers. The other papers have their nice clothes on and wear a collar and tie. The Maritime Labour Herald is a paper with its shirtsleeves rolled up and its neckband turned under. We are ..the workingman's paper and wear no frills.
Quickly, the paper got a warm response from Cape Bretoners. Circulation climbed to well over 6,000, which meant perhaps ten times as many people actually read it. Its pages are filled with letters from workers describing working conditions and daily problems. One of the goals of the paper was to have the workers themselves write as much of the paper as possible. Crammed with lively humour and a clear grasp of economic problems, the paper won the respect and sympathy of working people.
On the front page of the first issue the basic theme was set in this brief analysis of the economic crisis of the time:
The workers produce a great deal more wealth than the wage they receive will enable them to buy back, and the surplus left over fills warehouses, cold storage plants, etc. There are more ships, more engines, more steel products, more food and clothing than is needed but these things are in the hands of the capitalists who cannot sell them, and because the workers are unemployed they cannot buy the food they so badly need, and hence go short amid plenty… Capitalism and capitalism alone is the evil tree that bears such bitter fruit."
For, five, hard years the paper fought bravely for these principles.
Via email, Ken Clare says that:
Both the Dalhousie Killam and Saint Mary's libraries have what look like complete runs, from October 1921 to July 1926, on microfilm. The Saint Mary's holdings are part of a larger collection of Canadian labour newspapers, several others also from the Maritimes no doubt, ordered many decades ago to satisfy the research needs of some ancient historian.
MicMac News
Andrea Patterson points me to the MicMac News:
The Micmac News (1965-1991) is an important example of Mi'kmaw print culture; it was first developed by Roy Gould in Membertou in 1965 and later published until 1991 by the Union of Nova Scotia Indians and the Native Communications Society of Nova Scotia, respectively. This invaluable research tool covers historical and contemporary issues and events, including Aboriginal rights cases, social and labour history, material and intangible culture, and celebrations of Mi'kmaw life. The newspaper provides a means of language preservation; prayers and myths were printed in the paper, and simple language lessons in Mi'kmaq were also a regular feature.
The MicMac News is found online here.
New Maritimes
Both Parker Donham and C. McNeil point us to New Maritimes, published in the 1980s by Gary Burrill. I've emailed Burrill and asked for more information.
Via email, Stephen Kimber writes:
The late Scott Milsom was the editor of New Maritimes. I profiled him for the late Daily News back in the mid-1990s, and there's a bit about the magazine's beginnings. You're welcome to use any or all of it.
If memory serves, Rick Williams (of the Dexter government) was also one of the major contributors to the magazine back then.
Here's the column:
Today, Scott Milsom, one-time federal candidate for the Communist Party of Canada and longtime social activist, is editor of New Maritimes, the critically acclaimed bimonthly regional magazine that offers its several thousand readers an alternative take on Atlantic Canada's politics and culture.
But his life, as he is the first to admit, could have turned out quite differently. His father, the owner of a successful Halifax insurance agency, was a Conservative candidate in the 1956 provincial election that first brought Robert Stanfield to power. If his father had won — he lost in Halifax Centre by just 400 votes — he probably would have ended up in Stanfield's first cabinet.
"And then, who knows?" marvels Milsom. "If he'd won, I probably be a lawyer today."
He laughs, a hearty smoker's laugh/cough. It's clear he has no regrets. "I'm the luckiest guy in the world," he say. "I get paid for being a shit disturber." He pauses, then adds: "Not too well, mind you. But I do get paid."
He laughs again, coughs again.
Seven days tomorrow," he tells me, rolling up his T-shirt to show off the shoulder "patch" he wears to help him quit smoking. We are sitting in Jenny's Place, a north-end pub near his home that Milsom says boasts "the best deal in the city" for weekend brunch. For $1.39, plus beverage, you can get two eggs, bacon or sausage, as well as home fries and toast. "Put that in your article," he says.
We're a long way from Rosebank Avenue now.
Scott Milsom was born in the south end of Halifax in 1952 in what he decorously describes as "upper middle class circumstances."
One of his earliest memories, he says, is of that 1956 election campaign. He and his parents were in their car and young Scott, who'd been listening to his parents' front-seat political shoptalk from the back seat, finally asked, "What's a CCF?"
"The CCF," explained his mother, sounding almost like a character out of Mou's fifties'-style family cartoon strip, "wants to take your father's job away."
"She was talking about the party's policy of public auto insurance," Milsom explains today, "but for a long time that was the only thing I thought about the CCF — they're the party that wants to take my dad's job away."
Instead, in the early sixties, his father sold his successful insurance brokerage business to a British multinational that agreed to keep him on as its regional manager for five years.
At the end of the five years, they fired him.
Shortly after that, in 1968, Scott's father and mother split up. (His father died in a car accident in 1983.)
The divorce led to a dramatic change in family circumstances. "My mum had led this sheltered middle class existence, the wife with the maid, everything," he recalls. "Then suddenly, it was mum and five kids in a three-bedroom apartment in Fairview. My mum — she's a really incredible woman — spent the next 20 years working as a secretary and raising five kids. It broadened my perspective."
In truth, Scott had begun broadening his social and economic perspective even before his parents' separation. "When I was 11 or so, I remember I spent the summer hanging out at the Waeg (the south end Halifax boating club) but then, a year later, I was hanging out on Cornwallis Street instead." Why? "My first puppy love," he says with a shrug. "I met her at a bus stop. I was 12, she was 13. She lived at the corner of Barrington and Cornwallis Streets."
After graduating from high school in 1970, Milsom spent a year "mopping floors" at local hospitals, a year "majoring in snooker" at Dalhousie University and what was supposed to be another year working as a deckhand on a coastal freighter.
"Me and a buddy planned to get together some money and go backpacking through Europe."
His plans almost went awry in Baie Comeau, Quebec, where his ship was lying at anchor waiting to dock. He'd been part of a small group of crewmen who'd occasionally "discreetly toke up behind the funnel." No one paid much attention. But when a new crew member joined the ship, flaunting his drug use, the captain finally called in the RCMP to check for contraband. As the mounties' speedboat pulled up alongside, Milsom says, everyone dropped their stash overboard — except for Milsom, who was asleep in his cabin between watches at the time. He was busted for having one gram of marijuana. "The captain was shocked it was me," Milsom says. "He told me he was sorry but he had to fire me to make an example."
Back home — he was fined $75 on the possession charge — Milsom became "the best pizza deliverer in Halifax" for just long enough to get the money he needed to buy his $199 open return ticket to Amsterdam. He and a friend spent the next eight months wandering through Europe and north Africa. Once he recalls visiting twin cities that straddled the border between Morocco and Algeria. "In one city, you had beggars who poked out their eyes so they wouldn't have to do military service," he says. "It was a dirty, awful place. On the other side, it was clean, beautiful, the kids all went to school. No one would ask you for money. Instead they asked you how you liked their country. It was an eye-opener."
Not that Milsom wasn't already politically aware. For reasons he can't readily explain — "mum always encouraged inquisitiveness, I guess" — he was always intrigued by left-wing politics. "I wrote about the Sino-Soviet split in Grade 7. And I was politicized by Vietnam even before it was cool to see it that way."
When he returned to Nova Scotia in the fall of 1974, he became active in direct political action.
He joined the Communist Party in 1975, ran for them federally in 1979 then quit the party in 1981. "They had a policy of democratic centralism," he remembers. "but it turned out there was a lot of centralism and not much democracy."
He became involved in an ad hoc group called the Halifax Coalition for Full Employment which fought Ottawa's plan to collect millions of dollars in accidental overpayments to unemployment insurance recipients. "We scared hell out of Bob Coates," Milsom recalls with a laugh of the time he and some others briefly occupied the MP's office.
He also was "in on the ground floor" of the founding of the Red Herring Co-op Bookstore and the establishment of a local anti-apartheid lobby called the South African information Group.
To finance himself, Milsom took a job at Dalhousie's medical computer centre where he coded electro-cardiograms for a long-term epidemiological heart research project. "It's a tedious, boring highly-skilled job," says Milsom who still works there one day a week to "make ends meet. I've been lucky," he adds. "I've been able to work there on and off as I need to, and they've been very good about it. They even gave me a leave of absence in 1987 so I could spend four months backpacking through Africa."
Although he seemed to end up as the editor of various newsletters, Milsom says he never gave much thought to journalism until a friend named Gary Burrill told him about his plans to start a biweekly newspaper called New Maritimes in 1981. He asked Milsom if he'd be interested in writing "an international column" for the new publication.
Instead, Milsom, along with Lorraine Begley, an activist from Prince Edward Island, became co-founders of the new venture.
Burrill, who had managed to get a government grant to explore his idea, calculated that they would need $57,000 to properly launch the new publication, so they each borrowed $3,000 personally from a local credit union, created a non-profit corporation and then cobbled together a prototype and a mimeographed prospectus to convince others to invest in their scheme. In just four months, they raised a surprising $ 29,000 from "trade unions, progressives in the church and the blah-blah-blah left."
Incredibly, many of the magazine's original supporters — who all became charter subscribers — are still subscribers today.
"But since we only raised about half of what we figured we needed for the biweekly, we decided to become a monthly." He laughs. "We were naive."
Just how naive quickly became apparent. The original plan was for Burrill to be the full-time editor and Milsom and Begley to work half time at the publication. Within three months, "we had to lay ourselves off, put Gary on half time and begin working as volunteers," he says. "And monthly soon became 10 times a year."
The magazine went through its only major restructuring in 1988 when Burrill's wife became pregnant with their third child "and it became clear that this was no longer a tenable career path for them."
Milsom took over as managing editor — he's now just called the editor, but "I still empty the garbage" — and the magazine changed from tabloid to magazine format and from paste-up to computerized layout even as it switched publishing frequency to six times a year instead of 10. Perhaps because the new format included a book review section — "we'd always done reviews anyway" — New Maritimes that year also finally got its first $10,000 Canada Council grant after four rejected applications.
Today, the magazine, which just published issue number 101, gets 35 per cent of its annual revenue from a variety of public and private grants as well as from a successful annual fund-raising letter to its core of loyal supporters. "One guy in Chester Basin I'd never heard of sent us $500. You feel responsible when people do that."
Despite its critical success — the magazine has won three Atlantic Journalism Awards, is frequently singled out for recognition in the Canadian Association of Journalist annual awards and has won several plaques for its work from the Goodwin's Foundation — funding is always tenuous.
Two years ago, the Canada Council tried to cut off its grant for not being "cultural" enough, but the Canadian Magazine Publishers' Association — Milsom is a member of the board of the organization, which also includes such publishing heavyweights as James Warrilow of Maclean Hunter — and others lobbied hard to force the agency to back off.
"We're in a holding pattern right now," Milsom says.
A cheerful man who takes part in weekly shuffleboard nights at the Oasis bar ("I never miss a magazine deadline but that's because I make sure the deadline doesn't interfere with shuffleboard"), enjoys birdwatching and makes an annual pilgrimage to Fenway Park (his license plate reads R SOX) to prevent "magazine editor burnout," Milsom says he can't imagine doing anything but what he's doing right now.
The trick is to keep it going.
The magazine currently has about 1,000 subscribers; the numbers have been as high as 1,500, but Milsom says it's difficult to maintain those numbers with costly direct mail marketing campaigns.
"We figure there's a potential audience out there of about 7-8,000 but they're very difficult to reach."
He brightens suddenly. "Only $19.95 a year for a subscription. Post Office Box 31269, Halifax. Postal Code B3K 5Y5. Don't forget to put that in your article. Every subscription helps. Okay?"
On Scott Milsom's death, Parker Donham noted that:
Scott Milsom, reporter, editor, communist, chain smoker, Red Sox fanatic, wordsmith, author, and one of the nicest guysI ever knew, died this morning from cancer of the lungs.
From 1988 to 1996, Scott edited New Maritimes, an ambitious quarterly journal about the struggles and triumphs of working people in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and PEI. When a policy change at the Canada Council killed the magazine, Scott went on to publish and edit the Coastal Community News, which featured beautifully written profiles of the villages and hamlets that dot our coastline.
Scott was a dedicated leftist. Although he decamped from the Communist Party of Canada 30 years ago, he retained a profoundly radical view of our world. His publications rarely felt radical, however. Instead, they felt authentic. He had a knack for seeking out, finding, and telling stories about real people's lives. He treated story subjects with respect, and people from all walks of life instinctively trusted him. Their trust was never misplaced.
As Donham says, "a working class hero is something to be."
The Mysterious East
I mentioned The Mysterious East here and linked to this New Brunswick Literary Encyclopedia article about it.
The UNB Archives has an enormous amount of info about The Mysterious East, and the Cape Breton University Library has the complete published collection, apparently originals.
Sharon Fraser explains in the comments yesterday:
Pandora was a feminist newspaper that was published from the mid-'80s into the early '90s. It was a huge education for many people — including women who had identified as feminist many years before. (I was editor of Atlantic Insight and an enthusiastic volunteer for Pandora.) It was there that many women (I was one of them) were made aware of the enormous gaps between white and black feminism, gay and straight feminism. It wasn't always pleasant but it was necessary and important.
Pandora was taken before the Human Rights Commission after being accused of discrimination by a well-known anti-feminist crusader. Pandora refused to publish submissions from men.
Anne Derrick — now a judge — was our lawyer and we won the case. It took its toll, however, and Pandora folded in 1994.
The GayHalifax website gives more information, including where copies of Pandora reside, and adds:
The legend goes that it all started from a dare. BettyAnnLloyd? ("Bethen"??) was interested in working with women to produce a feminist paper, BrendaBryan was interested in the myth making potential and graphic design and CarolMillett? was interested in working with group process. There was heated discussion about starting a feminist newspaper and finally one of the women threw out a challenge; 'why not just go ahead and do it! First published in September, 1985 as a one year project, Pandora was to be a paper written by women, for women and about women.
Of all the newspapers in this list, I think Pandora will be the easiest to digitize.
The Plain Dealer
Says Skip Hambling via email:
Check out the Plain Dealer June1976 to Dec 1977. Founded by Bert Deveaux and Skip Hambling. Went head to head with the Irving owned dailies.
The NB Media Co-op internet site reports that the Plain Dealer shut down because of lack of advertising. This in NOT TRUE. The fact is when we shut down we were in the black because of strong sales of advertising — an extremely encouraging note for all of us who want to tell the truth about the way things really are and work. People want to know and will pay for the truth — even business people. We had large corporate advertisers too because we had identified and connected with a real "niche" market and readers equals advertising.
We closed down because we were bad business managers. We came up against the classic problem many small startups face: a cash flow shortage. We got ourselves into too much debt early on and, even though we had turned the corner, our income was not enough to pay our creditors and also meet ongoing operating expenses. Tellingly, it was our printer who refused to extend us more credit and so closed us down. He tried to start his own weekly to capture the market we had, but failed. He had no interest in challenging the powers that be and so people had no interest in one more paper toadying to the Irving line.
The New Brunswick Archives, the University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, and the New Brunswick Legislative Library all have original copies of the Plain Dealer.
Archives are here.
The Square Deal
Silver Don Cameron mentioned The Square Deal yesterday. The UPEI Robertson Library notes that:
The Square Deal, which began publication on June 10, 1970, sought to provide indepth reporting on P.E.I. politics and culture. It acted as a forum for opinions and creative writing more than as a source of current news. The Square Deal published political commentary, interviews with Prince Edward Islanders, poetry, reviews of happenings in the P.E.I. artistic community, articles about P.E.I. institutions and articles on current social issues, such as drugs and education. Photographs were published in the paper. The Square Deal apparently ceased publication in July of 1971.
The UPEI library has copies of The Square Deal, but it has not yet been digitized.

They say that exercise releases endorphins but for some women it releases much more! A new study reports that working out will actually induce orgasm. Who knew? This innovative study showed that exercise-induced orgasms are more than frequent than one might have thought! An online survey distributed to women, from Indiana University, revealed that nearly 50% felt exercise-induced sexual pleasure and about 25% experience orgasms during a routine workout. This study is groundbreaking in proving that orgasms are not solely based on sexual activity. What's the magic, most common move that seems to trigger orgasm? Abdominal exercises! From the women who participated in the survey, 52 % of the women who experience these fitness orgasms said they'd had one in connection with abdominal work in the past 90 days. Bring on the sit-ups!

7 Tips Every Business Owner Needs to Know
Every business owner is a leader, but that doesn't mean they have all the answers, nor do they get it right every time. Being a leader can be very lonely, and without support and encouragement, a leader can lose confidence and make some wrong decisions.
Standard errors of judgement include trying to do everything, not delegating enough, not being present and letting the business run itself! In this article, we have some pointers for the business owners who need to get back on track.
Take Time Out
There seems to be an attitude in the business world that your business should consume every minute of your life if you want to have "success". Success in itself is a subjective term as it means different things to all of us. That being said, it's important to remember that even when you're a business owner, other things are just as important as running your business, including your relationships, your physical and mental health.
You don't want an early exit from your business due to unforeseen circumstances like a physical or mental health event.
Selling too soon can be dire, and the odds are not likely to be in your favor – even when you've got an eCommerce business to sell.
It's ok to take a break, regardless of what popular opinion or the business gurus say. Yes, running a business is hard work, and it will most certainly require much effort and determination, but that doesn't mean you need to spend every waking hour running the business.
No one is indispensable, and that includes the person at the helm. Taking holidays like your employees will provide perspective on what your business means to you and how you're running it. Do you need a manager to take over daily operations or what you're inherently good at? Maybe you need to hire a CEO, someone who isn't afraid to delegate responsibilities and tasks?
A Business Doesn't Run Itself
Letting go of the reigns and letting the business decide its own course will be detrimental to your hard work to date. Even when you have the right help with superb staff, a company needs a leader who will lead.
Your strengths may lie in technology and product development or selling but not people management; therefore, either you skill up with some training and mentoring or allow someone you trust to do the job. There is no failure in recognising your shortcomings, quite the opposite is true. Your business will survive and thrive due to your heightened awareness of your strengths and weaknesses.
Knowing Your Strengths is Crucial
As with anything in life, you must know your strengths to effectively run your business. Knowing where you fall short can help you find the motivation to train harder and learn new skills, and being aware of where your strengths lie can encourage you to reach for new heights.
Perhaps you're great at time management, but not so great at people management. Or, you might be wonderful at money management and planning, but terrible at marketing or interacting with customers. This brings us to our next tip if it makes sense outsource it, just do it.
Outsourcing Can Be The Answer
The services industry contributes a good chunk to the global economy, and outsourcing is a service sector that's yet to hit its peak. Organisations have turned to outsource to save both time and money and ensure that certain business aspects are professionally managed.
There's hardly an aspect of business that can not be outsourced now. Think of the large brands like Nike, where manufacturing and their back-office is outsourced. Other large retailers and companies of all sizes now see value in outsourcing customer support, marketing and sales, HR, accounting, payroll, and maintaining a much smaller team at head office.
Key personnel retained as employees of some businesses are all managers responsible for managing outsourcing providers, and this is a common theme in the makeup of many companies day. Sales and marketing is one area. However, that's likely to be kept inhouse.
Don't Skimp On Marketing
As a business owner, your leadership will be the nucleus of the company culture. You'll want your staff believing the customer is the organisation's heartbeat, and the marketing is the lungs, so to speak. Without marketing, your reach is short, and many prospective customers will never find you.
Make sure your staff realise how important marketing is to your brand awareness and reputation. Every person in the business is in some way representing the firm and promoting it. Hire the best marketing executive you can afford or outsource this function to an expert marketing agency. Another option is to some of the work inhouse and outsources the rest.
Adaptability Is Key To Success
Among your endless leadership skills is perhaps the most important one of all: adaptability. The business world is constantly changing and evolving. Just look at how we now use technology and the internet to just ten years ago. AL and machine learning and blockchain were not around and now we use them in our business, particularly in marketing.
Adapting to change isn't always easy, but it's vital so work hard on how you as the business owner adapt to change and lead the way, so your staff are equally confident with the challenges presented to them.
