The Roush cold air intake is a good choice for your '11 to '14 at 6.2-liter Raptor.

If you're looking to replace the stock air-box and paper filter for the more effective intake

that will slightly improve horsepower and torque while giving you a small bump in throttle

response and fuel efficiency as well.

This does not require a tune unlike some of the other options in the Raptor category,

but it is not carb certified, so it's not legal in all fifty states.

Installation, obviously, is going to be super straightforward, so expect one out of three

wrenches on our difficulty meter, which I'll walk you through it later on.

Roush obviously makes just about everything for F-150s and Raptors.

Everything from performance parts like superchargers and intakes, to appearance and customization

type parts.

These filters will add to that performance because they are made using two layers of

wire mesh for durability while helping to retain an open filter shape to keep the airflow

coming in.

It's made of several layers of specially treated cotton gauze to increase filtration as well.

Now, the biggest thing about this is that it's washable and reusable.

No need to pick up a new one every few thousand miles when routine maintenance comes around.

You can pop it out, wash it, re-oil it, and pop it right back in like new.

The rest of the components are made from a high-quality, free-flowing molded intake as

you can see here with a black finish, making this a little nicer to look at under the hood.

It blends right into the primarily black engine bay, almost like they came there from the

factory, but it will perform far better than stock ever could.

Now, although it does not require a tune, it would definitely help to really maximize

the performance of, not only the intake, but also any other power model you may have on

your Raptor, but like I said, not required.

The price tag falls right around the $300 range, which is a pretty average price range

for a Raptor air upgrade.

Now, the premium brand name definitely goes a long way with this one, but at the end of

the day, most intakes will perform a very similarly with slight differences in between.

This one does have a nice air-box to limit the filters exposure to the engine heat, which

is gonna be a bonus for this particular kit.

The installation can be done with simple hand tools.

You'll need a 4-millimeter and 3-millimeter Allen wrench, a 5/8 wrench, T20 Torx, and

a flathead screwdriver.

It will take you about thirty minutes from start to finish.

It definitely gets one out of three wrenches on our difficulty meter.

The first thing you need to do, of course, is disconnected the negative cable on the

battery and disconnect the mass air sensor connector and the crankcase and vent line

from the intake tube.

Loosen all clamps on the tubing for the stock air-box, one of which is by the throttle body.

Release the clips on the upper and lower air-box and remove the upper air-box housing and intake

to assembly from the trough, and take out the air filter.

Remove the center upper air-box retaining clips from the lower air-box.

Now, you can install the Roush filter adapter into the heat shield and install the edge

trim or weatherstripping onto the shield.

You may need to cut the trim into two and nine and a half inch pieces.

Install the filter into the adapter and tighten the hose clamps to secure it, and then install

the coupler on to the filter using clamps as well.

Now, install the heat shield and filter assembly into the lower air-box in the truck, then

install the coupler onto the throttle body with clamps.

Remove the mass air sensor from the factory air-box and move it over to the Roush tubing

along with the crankcase vent fitting.

Install the tubing on the motor connecting one end of the throttle body to the coupler

and the other end to the filter in the air-box coupling.

Reconnect everything and you are good to go.

That just about wraps this one up, so if you're the owner of a '11 to '14, 6.2 liter Raptor,

you might wanna check out the Roush cold air intake kit, which is available right here

in americantrucks.com.

Can A Hex Bug Fish Swim In A Mud Puddle?? Aquabot Swimming Test Review Micro Robotic Robot - Duration: 4:22.

Hello everyone, we're walking around our neighborhood which is still under

construction and we happen across this wonderful array of mud puddles, and we

thought, we thought, you know, maybe our hex bug fish want to take

a cool dip in the mud puddles. And isn't mud therapeutic at spas and things, so

well, daughter go ahead start throwing them in there. let's see how they do.

Come on, swim, swim. Boom! It's swimming. Okay let's splash the

camera, good. Let me zoom in on this little gu,. He's taking it slow and lazy.

There he goes, boom. Jellyfish, yes there it is! Wahoo is going to go crazy.

Wahoo is stuck. Okay here, you want to dig? We got our net stick here.

what?? okay, yep that's so strange it comes up. Yeah I guess he just they just

kind of go in a circle, and I guess this puddle is big enough. Oh look he's

beached, he's beached, he's beached, here we go. Sounds like he's p@@ing that's weird.

There's the jellyfish. I just put new batteries in the

jellyfish, he's doing really well. Here's our yellow fish. He's beached.

Slowly spinning. There we go okay. And our yellow ones way over here now. It

scares me how the jellyfish... we lost two or three are under the mud water, help.

Come on oh good good good going into a

wall. you want to go and fish Mr. jellyfish out with our

dollar-store net?

Let's see how he's doing. all right he picked up some, all kinds of... ewww like..

I the wahoo in there too? Nope, I thought there were bugs in here, no.

Guess what? Wahoo is officially, he's probably stuck underneath somewhere in

the mud. Ewww, gross, I'm gonna try and dredge up wahoo oh why did

we put it... we've done this before. we did a canal, we did hex bugs in a canal and

we lost a fish right away, yeah. "Leaf" us alone.

Okay so we're gonna put him off to the side. Grab him. I'm gonna

hold the camera you can try and fish it out. I think we lost wahoo, and stirring up

the waters making the muddier isn't helping. Oh there it is, it's caught in

the net. Where'd he go? He's still in there. Let me put him in a light for

and milk, we've already done those, so check out the playlist in the

description.

I think they swim in every liquid, we've done about 38 of these, they swim in

every every liquid but, like Italian dressing. they don't swim in oil for some

reason, I'm not I'm an electrical engineer. I think it's something to do

with oil and electric, I don't know. Anyway, I swim in this muck. Wow look at

1994-2004 Mustang Convertible MMD Styling Bar Review & Install - Duration: 6:52.

The MMD Convertible Styling Bar in charcoal is a great choice for any '94 to '04 Convertible

Mustang owner who's looking for a unique custom exterior styling that complements the body

style perfectly.

This one is one of the simpler options as far as styling bars go.

And it comes in right over the $300 mark.

Now, as far as the installation is concerned, this one is gonna get two out of three wrenches

on our difficulty meter here simply because it is a little more involved than a direct

bolt-on.

Now, when you drop the top of your convertible, it is definitely pretty cool, but you have

a very unique opportunity to take that a step further, one that Coupe owners do not have.

The styling bar adds just a little extra layer of customization to your SN-95 or New Edge

Mustang.

Completely changes the look of your Mustang when the top is down, but once it's up, you'll

only see the bar from the inside.

Now, aside from the obvious appearance change to your Mustang, it also helps to stiffen

the chassis a bit, which can reduce body flex.

The bar is a super tight fit in order to stiffen that up, which can make the install just a

little bit trickier, but it's still pretty simple.

And it's definitely worth noting that this is not, in any way, supposed to be an anti-roll

bar or anti-roll cage.

It holds no weight in helping to protect against rollover damage, so keep that in mind.

This is purely an appearance and chassis stiffening piece, but it's mainly focusing on the styling

aspect.

Now, this was made using a tubular steel for strength, and it gets its shape using a molded

foam with a durable weather resistant urethane vinyl wrap that has an OEM-style grained texture

to it.

But obviously, when it rains or snows you'll throw your top up, but it'll tuck in right

under the ragtop perfectly without causing any issues getting it up or down.

The dark charcoal finish here matches the charcoal interior of some of the models in

this generation, but it even goes with the black interiors as well.

Now, if this color isn't really your favorite or if you've got the tan interior, there are

styling bars to match that as well.

Now, you can get this for just under the $300 mark, but there are some more advanced ones

out there that incorporate maybe a third brake light when the top's down or even some carbon

fiber finishes as well, which would definitely run you a bit more money, but it's worth adding

if you're into the added functionality.

Now, as far as the install is concerned here, this one is gonna be a little bit more involved

than a direct bolt-on, so I am giving it two out of three wrenches on our difficulty meter.

Now, we put our own Mustang into the shop here to see how it's done, so let's head over

there to get this installed.

First, use your flathead screwdriver to push in the retaining clip holding the lower rear

seats in place.

Then remove the seat from the vehicle.

Remove the two 10-millimeter bolts holding the upper rear seat in place...

Once removed, pull up on the seat to release the upper clips holding the seat to the vehicle.

Using the trim removal tool, remove the upper trim panel pin and two rear trim panel pins

that were hidden by the rear seat.

Now remove the two pins holding the rubber seal to the trim panel as well as the upper

speaker grill.

You're gonna pry away carefully with a flathead screwdriver...

Now use a Torx head bit to remove the lower part of the seatbelt from the vehicle.

You're then gonna remove the rocker silk cover by carefully pulling upwards and removing.

The interior panel will now be free and you should be able to remove it entirely...

Use the provided template and drill a 1/8-inch pilot holes into each of the cross-sections.

Once the holes are drilled through the panel, file with a one-inch hole saw through the

outside of the panel.

These holes will intersect and you may file them to make one uniform oval.

After the holes are drilled, pry the upper trim mounting clip from the panel, it is no

longer needed.

Remove the rear speakers with a seven-millimeter socket and remove them from the car.

Now you can loosen the inner quarter panel covers by prying them away from the body.

They're held from the factory with a black sealant.

Take care not to scrape this off, as it will be reused when resealing the panel.

There are two brackets that are included with your styling bar marked L and R for proper

placement.

The crimp nuts are offset on each bracket and you're going to use the opposite side

bracket for each side of the vehicle to mark the holes you're going to drill for the body.

This will ensure, when installed on the proper sides, the holes will line up as they should.

Make sure the bracket is running parallel to the B pillar of the car.

When it's correctly placed, use a center punch to mark the body of the vehicle through the

holes of the two crimp nuts.

You're then gonna drill a 1/8-inch pilot holes where you marked and then you're gonna enlarge

them to 3/4 inch.

Now you can place the brackets on the inside of the B pillar on the correct side of the

vehicle and use the supplied rivets to secure them to the body.

Make sure the brackets are flat against the inside of the pillar and that the crimp nuts

are facing the rear of the vehicle or the styling bar will not tighten properly.

Once the brackets are secured to the body, reinstall the inner quarter panel trim and

outer trim panel...

Carefully slide the styling bar into the holes you drilled in the interior panel trim.

Push the bar down as far as it'll go on either side.

Now use the supplied hardware to attach the bar to the brackets inside of the B pillar,

but do not fully tighten until the final adjustments are made.

Place the provided plastic plugs into the remaining holes in the quarter trim panel

and reinstall the rear seat.

Reattach the lower portion of the seatbelt to the factory location.

Make sure the styling bar is fully secured to the brackets during final adjustment before

driving the vehicle.This is where you're gonna make sure everything is tight and placed exactly

where you want it.

Just to wrap things up here, if you're the owner of a '94 to '04 convertible Mustang,

then you might wanna check out the MMD Convertible Styling Bar in charcoal, which you can find

right here in americanmuscle.com.

Vernal Verse Event: Easter Bunny Suit Review and Top Scoring Items - Duration: 8:05.

hi guys so today I'm going to be talking about the Easter Bunny suit I'm just

gonna do an outfit review for it so before we start I would like to thank

typo Quintero and their name on love nikki is regal for giving me this idea

please consider subscribing if you would like more content like this and let's

get started this Easter Bunny suit is possibly the prettiest suit I've ever

seen on love Nikki and I've only been here for two months and of course this

isn't counting the four cards yet because we don't have those events but

this Easter Bunny I really wanted so I'm probably gonna buy it by the end of the

event because I'm just waiting to see if I can get the Cosmo tide set on the side

over here but I've been getting dies every day so it's really pissing me off

this Easter Bunny set it's a cumulative recharge set or not cumulative I think

it's just a recharge set where you need to buy at least eight hundred diamonds

and you would have to do so over here I don't really want to buy any of these

because I want to have a monthly card if I'm going to buy but I don't think I

want to buy two monthly cards if I don't really get anything out of it if I get a

Cosmo tied package I can get that suit I can get this suit and I can also rank up

over here and it will give me m v6 privileges where I can get an extra 20

percent for the competition settlement and the arena settlement so hopefully um

they'll give me the Cosmo tied suit but otherwise that like I'm not sure what

I'm going to do so let's get started with the Easter Bunny set in this set

there are a lot of top scoring items and this includes the duty of rabbit with

this one this includes the drooping rabbit ears the Easter Egg which I

really want the spring bow and just Easter and sorry one more it's look oh

yeah it's in the set so this would be the collection

offspring so let's go through each one of them so the duty of rabbit is a top

scoring item in four chapters this would be the maiden chapter and the princess

chapter 4 2 1 and 6 5 so technically it's only a top item in two chapters

which is chapter 2 and chapter 6 for one stage the second one would be the

drooping rabbit ears it's a unique top scoring item where it's actually ears so

instead of going to some random accessory it's actually in the ear

accessory bin so maybe that's why it's a part of a hundred and eighty-two

chapters so if I'm looking at it there's it's pretty much a top scoring item from

chapter 1 to 6 then chapter 2 the oh sorry chapter 1 to stage 6 chapter 2 2

to stage 8 chapter 3 4 2 stage 3 12 chapter 4 stage 1 to s 3 it's a lot and

then it just goes on for every single one until chapter 13 so I think that

it's something that you should aim to get if you're really wanting to get a

top scoring item so to clarify what a pops going item is it's just something

that you would get if you want to do well on a princess maiden stage or the

arena or competent or not even competition just those ones because they

give you the most points and if you want to rank high for whatever reason then

you would want one of these alright so the next one is the Easter egg and the

Easter egg is only a top scoring item in two chapters but those two chapters is

just maiden and princess so technically it's just chapter 13 3 otherwise it's

not really not a top score and for anything and then collection of spring

so it is a type of shoe and then it's a top scoring item five chapters

technically three because it's Chapter two one meet in

princess chapter 4 s one meet in princess and chapter six seven only

princess so it's not like you know as as great as the drooping rabbit ears but

it's still pretty good okay so let's move on to the accessory which is a hair

ornament and this would be spring bow spring bow is a top scoring item in five

chapters so chapter two one meet and princess chapter 4 s 1 medium princess

in chapter 6 7 princess otherwise there's nothing else

so again if you're really aiming for anything it would be the drooping rabbit

ears and the last two would be the accessory and makeup which I didn't

mention it's the early rabbit I didn't see it earlier but it's the early rabbit

one two okay so the top squaring item for this accessory it's a scarf item and

then you can use it in two chapters and to Commission requests so the two

chapters would be six five made in princess and a to Commission request

would be one seven and two three and lastly we have the prettiest thing ever

it's the makeup it's I honestly love it so much the the wink the sleepy the

sleepiness in her eyes I just wanted it's a top scoring item and ten chapters

so chapter 3:10 meet and princess chapter 4 sy meet and princess chapter 6

v meet and princess chapter 6 of a medium princess in chapter 6 s to meet

and princess so the takeaway here is that the probably best two items in this

set would be the drooping rabbit ears and the early rabbit and just to mention

the set itself it's honestly so pretty because like it's this light blue and

silver and it just really works well together I really want it and I've never

wanted something this bad before I like the past event um I was like

really disappointed because I've seen the

I just missed the the go scattering or yeah the ghost gathering event because I

started in mid or early February so my first event was actually the Valentine's

Day one but then otherwise I was really disappointed because after that event it

was kind of underwhelming it was the what is it the circus event

and I really didn't like that one it was pretty much bad until I reached the void

suits and the void suits were absolutely one of my favorite suits as well because

ruin suits are my like I guess my bias towards all these suits but then this

Easter Bunny suit it also really made me want it so I'm

going to try to get it somehow some way I'm gonna have to sell my kidney for

this stuff but we'll see and I'm still really salty because every day I look at

this pack and it's literally a refresh of this one so I don't know if I'm gonna

like call them to keep Stevie and simile give me the cosmic eyes dude and I'll

support your game we'll see alright so that's it for today thank you for

watching my video I really appreciate it and if you liked what you saw then

please support my channel by subscribing thank you

you

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers - S02E47 - Episode Review - Duration: 6:36.

Welcome to Ranger Reviews, a webseries where we look at episodes of the tv show, Power

Rangers and then discuss it!

Today, we're exploring the hundred and seventh episode of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as

well as the forty seventh episode of Season 2, titled "Best Man for the Job".

We begin this episode in Angel Grove High where we find out that the student elections

are coming up.

Billy asks Tommy if he'd ever run for class president, and he wants to be Tommy's campaign

manager.

Kim agrees that Tommy would be a great president.

She and Aisha leave, and Billy suggests that Tommy's campaign slogan is "the best man

for the job" because we can't even be 3 minutes into this episode within name dropping

its title.

Skull asks Bulk what he'd think if he were student president, but then, Bulk says that

he should be it because then they'd have access to the student files.

Uhm, that's not okay.

Aisha tells Kimberly that the best man for the job could be a woman, and after Aisha

convinces her that Tommy will be fine with it, she talks to Tommy, and they agree that

it's going to be fine.

On the moon, Zedd makes an astute observation about how politics can ruin any relationship.

Then, he and Rita argue, and we find out that Zedd is sexist as hell, saying that Rita sucks

because she's a girl.

Then, she gives an evil jump rope to Baboo and Squatt, saying that will make people overly

competitive.

This show is so damn cheap, it's insane.

Kim and Tommy are walking through the park, talking about how great it is that they be

friends with benefits and also run for office.

Then, Baboo and Squatt trip them with the evil jumprope, which causes Tommy and Kimberly

to start bickering with one another.

It's great.

Goldar tells Zedd about how Rita has a plan, and Zedd says "keep an eye on it".

Then, we find Tommy defacing a campaign poster of Kim's, whose slogan is Win with Kim,

which doesn't even technically rhyme.

He's also drawing a mustache on her.

Billy shows up with posters for Tommy, and Tommy puts his poster over Kim's.

Kim then shows up, calling them "losers", and man, I love this episode.

They start arguing again before a 35 year extra walks by, and they attempt to get his

vote.

Tommy and Billy end up leaving, and Kim puts stickers over Tommy's poster so it now says

"Don't Vote for Dummy", and it's the funniest thing this show has ever done.

Aisha tells her to chill, and Kim tells her to shut up.

Also, we see Bulk and Skull campaigning, and Bulk promises if elected, he'll reveal the

identity of the Power Rangers.

Then, on the moon, Rita zaps down a letter to Tommy's locker, and he and Billy come

in, and Tommy literally only removes the "don't" from the defaced poster as in he's fine

with being called a dummy.

They find the letter, and Tommy reads it, leaving.

Billy reads it, too, and it says how it has information to destroy Kimberly.

Tommy is in the park, and he gets jumped by Goldar and putties, and he morphs in the coolest

way ever!

White Ranger then takes them all on, kicking ass in the process until Goldar hits him away.

Aisha and the guys come up to Kim, trying to talk to her about how she's being a bitch

in this campaign, but then Zordon calls, and the five morph right there in the middle of

the hallway.

They come to Tommy's help, but then Rocky gets hit way back.

Also, now Kim is just talking about Tommy needs help because he's useless.

They start fighting with one another while putties are around him.

Goldar is even trying to get them to pay attention to him, and he ends up just punching Kim and

stealing Saba.

Tommy breaks free from putties, and Kim and Tommy compete over who can get Saba, and they

hit each other, falling onto the ground.

The others try to break them up, and Goldar uses Saba to fire at them.

They have to retreat.

In the Command Center, the six are there while Kim and Tommy keep bickering, and Kim says

that Tommy's ponytail is too tight, which is amazing.

Alpha does a test, and they find out that they're under a spell thanks to Rita.

Zordon then gives them roses… to smell… which will somehow make them better because

it's a symbol of love?

Tommy refuses at first, saying that he's not trying to be a jerk here, and Kim says

"you have a hard time doing that, huh?" in the best line delivery Amy Jo Johnson has

given thus far.

I love this episode!!

They smell the roses, returning the two to their normal, boring selves.

They apologize to one another, and now Rita is in the park dancing around with Saba, which

is HILARIOUS.

Billy suggests a freakin' magnet to get Saba back.

Tommy is going to stay behind for no reason whatsoever, and the five others teleport back

in.

Rita then calls out the White Tigerzord, converting it into Warrior Mode.

The others then call out their Thunderzords, combining them into the Thunder Megazord.

Alpha gives Tommy the finished magnet device thing, and he says that there's only a range

of 10 yards, so Tommy has to go solo.

When he arrives, we see….

American Zord footage?!

The White Tigerzord and the Thunder Megazord are actually connecting?!

This episode is INCREDIBLE!

Tommy sneaks up behind the villains, and now the two Megazords are using their swords against

one another.

I'm not even mad that they called the Thunder Saber the Power Sword.

Tommy flips out of the bushes, recalling Saba.

Now, back in control, the two Megazords start to stalk toward Rita and gang, and they disappear.

Then, on the moon, Rita laments her loss, and Zedd rubs it in her face by flexing on

her.

THIS.

EPISODE!!!

At the Youth Center, Kim has just finished her speech.

Tommy is up next, and he says that they should all vote for Kimberly because she's better

than him.

That's unexpected.

I was expecting a tie between the two!

Then, Skull comes in dressed to the nines for Bulk, and Bulk comes out in a bad Uncle

Sam cosplay while Skull is ruining everything in the background.

Then, Skull hits both Caplan and Bulk off stage.

Caplan receives the election results, and Tommy and Kim hug it out.

Caplan goes to the podium, announcing that Kimberly Hart has won the election.

Bulk demands a recount, and he only got 1 vote.

Turns out, Skull didn't vote for Bulk because Kimberly's speech was that good.

Then, Tommy gives Kim a fake ass rose.

The end!

Where has THIS Season 2 been the entire time?!

This episode was incredible!

Kim and Tommy being at each other's throats should seem like low hanging fruit, but since

they're also so friendly, it's so refreshing to see conflict between the two!

Plus, American Zord footage?!

That was badass!

Rita getting Saba and controlling the White Tigerzord against the Thunder Megazord?

Actually funny Bulk and Skull bits?

I loved this episode!

Will next time be just as good?

Until then, may the power protect you!

A Boy in Winter | 2018 Women's Prize Review - Duration: 10:55.

Hello, bookworms! I'm Hannah, and I'm changing the lighting setup in my next

few videos, because I started recording a few minutes ago and one of my lightbulbs

exploded. Burning hot glass went raining down and set the carpet on fire. That was

terrifying. I'm trembling right now, but I have a lot of work to do today so I'm

going to soldier on and get through this video. Today is my first dedicated review

of a 2018 Women's Prize longlist book. I'll be giving a brief synopsis,

introducing the characters, and discussing the book's strengths and

weaknesses. As usual, I'll avoid dropping any major spoilers, and I'll do my best to

correctly pronounce the characters names,

but if I get any wrong I hope you'll

forgive me. Today I'm reviewing A Boy in Winter by Rachel Seiffert. This is

Seiffert's fifth novel. Her debut novel, The Dark Room, was shortlisted for The

Man Booker Prize in 2001, and her third novel, Afterwards, was longlisted for the

Women's Prize in 2007, back when he was known as the Orange Prize for Fiction. A

Boy in Winter is historical fiction set during the German invasion of Ukraine in

1941. Though the synopsis suggests the book will follow four characters, it

actually jumps around to six, technically seven, different characters. Right now

some of you are thinking, "Wait a minute, six characters in a book that's not even

240 pages long? Is it even possible to feel invested in so many characters in

so few pages ?" The answer to that question is: No. Let's start at the beginning.

This year's women's prize longlist left me feeling deflated.

I posted a candid longlist reaction video. If you missed that, I'll link to it

in the description box. When determining which books from the longlist to read, A

Boy in Winter caught my eye, because it's opening pages give an immediate sense of

atmosphere and peril and reveal a unique linguistic style.

Seiffert demonstrates a quirky dependency on semicolons and colons which, to be

frank, my eyes were tripping over throughout the book, and her writing

oscillates between short, jagged sentences and long flowing sentences

laden with commas, We open on the hushed streets of a small Ukranian town where

the air is damp with fog. A young boy and his little brother

are running through the empty cobbled streets in search of a place to hide. The

eponymous "boy" is the oldest: 13 year old Yankel, a Jewish boy prone to daydreaming

who prefers afternoon spent in long grass along the river banks or wading in

the shallows. He's a brave and nurturing older brother who often whittled sticks

into figurines for his younger brother Momik. We're then introduced to a German

engineer named Otto who's woken by the sound of slamming doors outside his

boarding-house window. In the last few days he's witnessed the arrival of SS

Jeeps, then the Order Police, and now the

streets are filling with the gray uniformed Wermacht. We get a sense

of Otto's character and his view of the war through inward conversations he has

with his beloved wife. Otto is implacably opposed to his

countrymen's behavior but keeps his thoughts safely in his head because the

letters he writes home to his wife are monitored by German soldiers. We next

meet my favorite character in the book: a 17 year old Ukranian farm girl named Yasia. Her introduction is accompanied by a wailing siren and the crack of a

German voice over a loudspeaker announcing, in Ukrainian, that a curfew is

in effect until further notice. Through Yasia's conversations with her father

were reminded of Stalin's brutal reign, and we learned that she's resentful of

the war because her sweetheart, Mykola, has been gone fighting for the Red Army. Were it not for the war she would be married by now and happily cradling a

plump baby. Finally, we're introduced to Yankel's

father, Ephraim. He, his wife, and his youngest daughter have been herded like

animals, along with hundreds of other Jews, to an old brick factory where he

waits anxiously for news of Yankel and Momik. It's through Ephraim's

wandering thoughts that we learn more about Yankel's character and how it's

been difficult for Ephraim in recent years to convince his son to focus on

learning when all Yankel wants to do is play outside. We also, in brief stints,

follow a schoolmaster; Mykola, who's told that his service in the Red Army will be

forgiven if he'll fight for the Germans; and Arnold, a military superior with whom

Otto occasionally confers. By weaving these characters' stories together,

Seiffert attempts to explore, and I'm quoting the book jacket here, "the

compromises demanded by survival, the oppressive power of fear, and the

possibility of courage in the face of terror." Two important questions arise

when considering this book. (1) Does Seiffert succeed in honoring what the

book jacket promises? I think the answer is yes, but the execution is weak; and (2)

Can this book compete with the pantheon of Holocaust literature that already exists?

I think the answer is no. Before I explain why, let me first touch on the

aspects of the book I enjoyed. Seiffert's prose regularly transports us from one

scene to the next. When following Yankel, we feel the dampness of the

fog around us. Yasia cuts into an apple to reveal its pale flesh, and suddenly

we're craving the sweetness of apples. Ephraim is pressed and pushed in the

crowded factory. His back aches, his joints stiffen, and we shift our weight

from foot to foot right alongside him. Most of these characters don't know one

another at the start of the book, so they're ignorant of how connected they

are. They're not concerned with one another's welfare until their paths

physically cross. It feels long in cinubgm which is funny given how short

this book is, but some of the most thrilling moments in the book occur when

these characters finally collide. My favorite moment is shared between Yasia,

Yankel, and Momik. It's the only scene in the entire book where I was quietly

spellbound. The boys are hiding in a workshop and Yasia offers them to

deviled eggs. The small one edges towards her shyly, reaching for the food. One hand

still full of his new toy, he has to give it to Yasia to make room and she takes

it from him gently, pressing an egg into each of his palms in exchange. Such fine

little digits; she likes to see them gripped like that, to see all the

neatness of his small child's movements. An egg makes a good warm fistful, she

thinks, watching his fingers closing around the

soft ovals as he returns to his brother's side. The small boy slips onto his

brother's knee to eat and, watching him there,

Yasia feels the emptiness of her own lap. Nothing but her own hands to rest

there - and even they have nothing to hold in them. That is such a powerful scene

that conveys the heightened appreciation, amid war time, of life's sweet

simplicities, things we normally take for granted: a warm haven, a shared meal, a

bite of food. It's a precious moment that illuminates

the frailty and innocence of children. It articulates Yasia's unmet desires and

how this war has prohibited her from assuming the identity she longs for of

wife and mother. And Seiffert's choice to use an egg - a symbol of life and, in

Jewish tradition, a symbol of a promise - is brilliant. The magnitude of that

moment is what I anticipated from this entire book. Unfortunately, it's the only

scene with such depth and gravity, a rare instance where this book's

potential shines through. One of my problems with this book is that I never

had a clear sense of time, because Seiffert is constantly bouncing to

different characters and pausing mid-thought to give backstory. The book

jacket makes a point of emphasizing that everything in this book transpires over

the course of three days, which is conceptually alarming given how many

lives are affected or ruined in such a short period of time. Without that clear

sense of time the severity of what happens is slightly diminished. I think this

is a symptom of Seiffert adding more characters during the writing process

and then struggling to juggle them in so few pages. Had Seiffert decided to focus on

one, possibly two characters, this would have been a more emotionally fraught,

memorable read. Ny vote is for Yankel and Yasia. With Yankle we see the war

through the eyes of a vulnerable Jewish boy. We experience hunger, fear,

uncertainty about family, and the responsibility of protecting a little

brother. His options are be captured by the Germans, hide and starve ,or take a

chance on a stranger, which could prove a fatal decision. With Yasia we see a

woman worried her lover will die in battle. We're privy to her dashed dreams

and her longing for motherhood. She's beautiful, and the German soldiers often

noticed that, so there's this lingering concern that she could be raped. Her

neighbors are aware of what's happening to the Jews, but they're not concerned

because they've adopted an attitude of, "Well, at least it's not happening to me,"

which brings to mind Martin Niemoller's poem. And her decision to interact with

two Jewish boys is exceedingly dangerous. I also took issue with how Seiffert

handles the mass graves. She mentions soldiers rounding up

hundreds of Jews and stripping them of their clothing. She writes of newly dug

soil and heaps of tangled limbs, but she never specifically states that German

soldiers lined up Jewish men, women, and children in front of gaping graves and

shot them. When the moment comes to fire the guns she breaks the scene. I spent a

fair amount of time wondering why. Why doesn't she finish that scene? I'm having

hard time talking about this.

Sometimes the unspoken is more powerful. Maybe by not stating what happened she's

implying that those acts were unspeakable. But I also wondered if she

simply shied away from the challenge of conveying the humiliation and horror of

those last moments. When future generations pick up this book, and World

War II is as distant as the Civil War or the War of Independence is to us, I think

people will be able to intuit what happened in that scene, but I don't think

it's weighty enough to adequately convey the humiliation and terror. My opinion of

this book is on par with another long list title: Home Fire by Kamilla Shamsee.

A Boy in Winter is not a bad book; it's not a great book, either. It strikes me as

an okay addition to this year's longlist. I wouldn't tell you not to read it, but I

definitely expected more from it. If you decide to give it a chance, expect a

quick read that flits around to myriad characters and touches on several

aspects of World War II but stubbornly refuses to dig deep. If you've already

read the book, what did you think of it? Tell me your thoughts and reactions in

the comments. Thanks, everybody!

Squish Delish Wacky 1 Blind Bag Review - Duration: 4:08.

hey everybody today in this video I'll be opening up two of the squish delish

wacky blind bags this is the wacky one series ones and we all know blind bags

can be very fun to collect but the fun can also be short-lived and gimmicky i wanna

a give an honest review of these wacky squish delish to see if this blind bag

is just a fun throwaway item or if it has some value to keep as a cool

collectible going into the first review point the package of design does it add

to the fun and I think it says it has a really bright big images of what squish

delish you might get and they look really weird and interesting like you

want to open this up and see which ones you get so let's go ahead and get these

both open they have pull tabs you dont have to use scissors in the first one it's this

weird bug here look at this got a green bug the eyes and my second one

oh it's a pair of underwear it's really weird but that's what they are supposed

to be wacky a review point number 2 packages is a cool collectible to use

for display or as a throwaway item these packages you just throw away my next

review point is variety does a checklist show a good variety of possible toys the

closest thing that I have to checklist is the pictures on the bag it says

collect them all but I don't see the little bug unless that's supposed to be

the bug but it's a different color so it doesn't really give you a checklist on

here you could go to the website to see a

checklist but just with the package there's no little card or anything like

that my next review point is execution is the actual surprise toy a decent

quality so these are like the squishy toys these wacky ones seem a bit firmer

than other squish delish or squishy toys that I felt it seems a bit harder which

then they rise pretty fast so I'm not sure if that's a good thing if you want

it to be softer than this they they don't have much detail on them just like

the face the eyes and then the face on this one but overall they're they're

squishy kind of very generic squishy of pants and a bug and I think they're

decent quality for a squishy I think they could maybe have a better feel to

them be softer have more of a squish to them so my rating from 1 to 10 for the

wacky squish delish I would get these in 8 out of 10

I think the foam feels a little hard to me and I think they could have added a

little more detail on them overall thank you guys for watching this review bye

Big Profit System Review 2018 | Top 3 Ways to Market Big Profit System - Duration: 12:40.

hey there this is Dan Froelke with another big profit system update you

know it's it's been a while since I recorded a big profit system update I

thought it was time everyone so I hear from people saying hey are you still in

big private system absolutely it's still I mean just because I don't show every

single check I get I think it doesn't mean that it's not working but it is

working and I have some very exciting news to tell you about big profit system

you know towards the end of this video but I want to share some things that has

been happening with me in big profit system as far as results I'm getting I

have an Express Mail package actually on the way I should be getting it any any

time now so I'm looking out the window here and so the mail person is supposed

to bring it up to the house but everyone said well she leaves it in my mailbox so

I'm just kind of waiting for that today and what I thought I would do is when it

arrives you know we'll take a walk out outside together we'll go get it we'll

bring it back in and I'll show you some results so uh last week I signed up a

gentleman he was an older guy older gentleman and he was just about to

retire or he is getting ready to retire right and he explained to me that that

he just doesn't have like an exit strategy for retiring doesn't have

enough money to retire the way he wants to right so he saw a big profit system

and he saw how incredibly hands-free it is and we've got people that closed your

sales and we have hands-free advertising all right completely

hands-free stuff and that's what that's what he liked so he saw the vision of

that and he's really happy and I'm getting him started he ordered some

advertising and he's all set ready to go so so after that call I thought man

there has to be like lots of people out there that are are getting close to

retiring and they don't have enough money

in their account or they don't have enough money saved up I should say - to

live the rest their life the way they want to live so I just did a little

research and I kind of want to share that with you because it is uh it's it's

really scary so I want to talk about baby boomers because I'm on the far end

of that one-third of baby boomers are looking for an exit strategy right now

and that's that's over 50 million people ok so one third of those people they

don't have enough money saved up to when they retire you know to live the way

they want to live right and that's scary and I was thinking big profit system is

absolutely perfect for these people they don't have to know there's no learning

curve all you have to do is plug into the system in order their traffic we

have sales closers that will close their sales

they'll call their qualified leads and close their sales and they can receive

between five hundred and ten thousand dollars per sale all right and that's

why I absolutely love big profit system it doesn't interfere with what I'm doing

and it certainly does not interfere with my life okay I don't have to sit online

all day on Facebook you know that that whole thing where you have to you know

every three hours you got to give an update of what you're doing that's not

me what what what's me is this right here let me switch this that's me right

there it's not the money it's the freedom I'm after now of course you need

money for the freedom but every any time I choose a business I make sure it does

not interfere with my life because freedom that's why I got in this okay so

anyway big drop system is really awesome for the person older person looking to

retire soon and they want an exit exit strategy this is the thing right here

it's it's fantastic for moms and busy moms and dads that are at a full-time

job they're at home with her kids it's

completely hands-free stuff and that's why I absolutely love big profit system

and we have several hands-free ways that we market big profit system and one of

them are his postcards postcard marketing and and you know what postcard

marketing works I don't care what you've heard online it it works and now when I

first started big drop system I was mailing these out like crazy okay

so I held off for a while but there because there was so many people doing

it I went into SMS text marketing and some other things and now I came around full

circle and I ordered some more postcards I'm doing SMS text marketing and I'm

doing some offline advertising as well so from my experience to have success

with big profit system you have to have a lot of lines in the water a lot of

fishing lines in the water I'm doing like I said doom postcards do an SMS and

that's how I I guess how I can explain it and also everyone is on a level

playing field it really doesn't matter how much I make that's not gonna help

you out okay what's going to help you out

is that we have hands-free turnkey marketing packages and we have

professional sales closers they call them success coaches whoops sorry about

that they can call them success coaches and they will call your qualified

prospects and answer all their questions and closer sales and you get paid

between five hundred and ten thousand dollars per sale I want to say that

again five hundred to ten thousand dollars per sale all right so I just saw

the mail person drive by so what I want you to do is walk out side with me and

we will go get that package from my my mailbox bring it in and we will open it

up okay okay let's take a walk outside and get that package

get through all my stuff here. Looks like my wife ordered some more stuff.

all right it is Easter weekend coming up and we still have snow on the ground

little piles of snow and see it's kind of overcast

Big Profit System? oh yeah

okay here it is right here a little results for you

I know results as they say speak louder than words and I want to tell you for

sure big profit system is still working like a charm

Honkai Impact 3rd - Bronya Zaychik review, Armada, Base (with captions) - Duration: 7:30.

hello and what's up everybody and welcome to

honkai impact again

today, as I promised you I'm going to show you the combo system of this girl

Bronya

and we are going to take a look at the Armada

and we are going to take a look at the base as well

so, without anymore talking let's just get into the video and try

this girl now let's do it

and see how strong she is

I feel that she is very strong, but let's see

let's try her and see

the only way to see how strong she is. is to try her, right?

"laughing"

let's do it

so

first of all she is hunter

or ranger or whatever you want to call her

so she hits from a long destines

and she can charge and hit so strong

and the more you charge the stronger it becomes

but, be careful. you see the

charging bar upon her HP (sorry for the mistake)

which will stop the gun when it get full (sorry for the mistake again)

come on now

you see

I can't hit anymore with it

so you must be careful for it

however

when it get lower so you can do it again

so you can do it like a computer which gets hotter and hotter and hotter, so that you must stop.

and then

you can do it again

oh my god

like seriously

come on already

and what is there

don't tell me I came back from where came from

no there is something here

oh come on did I came all the way here for this?

okay so

as you saw she was very strong on them

and now we are going to try her special

but first let's take this

this little box there

they will come to me when I finish it

"laughing"

"NO They won't"

"Someone is laughing even harder now ;)"

now what

okay so it's

it's the boss now. and here we are with the ultimate

a black hole

they get to it and just get hit, hit and hit

and more and more again

so

we just cleared the mission without any problems

and maybe without even geting hurt

"more than the spikes"

"someone is laughing again @_@"

so, as I told you she is strong

she is pretty strong

and she is useful as well because she is a ranger

now

let's take a look at the Armada

unfortunately, the Armada isn't like what I thought. it is only a sort of guild

which you join

and you can buy from the guild shop here

the shop and then the Armada shop

so, it's just a guild

like any other guild, in any game

and now let's see the base

what do we have here

we have the honkai powercore

which gives us the sp "EP" that we need and increase our

and increase our load as well. the higher level it has

the more EP we will get. and here we have the Refinery

we get gold from it

coins

and here we have the command center

the command center is a place where you have

missions

and you can send your valkyrjas to missions

but

you must be careful, because the valkyrja you send

will not be able to go into battles

so let's try this

let's put Kiana here

and send her

now she will have 3 hours until she comes back and I can't use her now

I must not be able to use her in battles so let's see

as you can see I can't use her

she is already on a mission so I can't use her

that's pretty much every thing for today.

thank you for watching and please help me

and please help me by sharing my videos with your friends

and yeah see you later! good bye :)

Glossybox March 2018 Austria / Österreich | FULL REVIEW - Duration: 8:28.

Hi guys!

My Glossybox arrived for this month, so I decided to use the products and film a review

on the products inside and therefore the whole Glossybox in Austria in whole.. at a whole?

Um I don't know how to say that, but you know what I mean.

If you don't know who I am my name is Maike I am a makeup artist and this is my channel.

I make beauty videos, makeup videos all that kind of stuff, so if you think you might be

interested in that, just subscribe down below.

So the first thing I tried out is the Albert Koch from Switzerland Ladibelle Appenzell

Natural Cosmetics cell renewing face mask.

It does say it English as well, I'm so stupid.

This is a sheet mask and I love, love, love this!

It is really nice for your skin, the only thing I have to say is that it comes basically

packed in two other sheets, so you're supposed to take one sheet off, put it on your face

and then take the other sheet off.

That was kind of difficult for me.

I did not like that, I prefer ones that actually just come so you can just put them right on

your face, but it did stick on my face very, very well.

You're supposed to leave it on for 20 minutes so you can do other things while you have

this on and yeah, it made my skin super soft, it made my skin super hydrated, which is very

important at the moment and I'm definitely going to buy this again.

This retails at 13 Euros, which I think is quite expensive for just one mask, I prefer

to just use DIY, but for very special occasions where my skin really needs hydrating I'm definitely

going to repurchase this.

The next thing I got is this Oryza, I think that's how you say it, beauty lipstick.

This is in the shade Arwa I think A-R-W-A and this is says it's a warm nude semi matte

lipstick.

This is the color.

I think it is a very beautiful color, I'm wearing this on my lips right now.

I have to say, it smells so terrible, it smells, I don't even know what it smells like but

it just smells so chemical and disgusting, I have no idea how you can produce a product

like this and not think about the smell.

The color is beautiful, it is kind of already rubbing off on my lips and for some reason

it is very hard to apply with a lip brush, so either apply it directly with the lipstick

or with your finger, which you know, is possible for people with good lips, but before I had

my lips done I had very difficult lips and I had to use a lip brush because it is way

more precise.

I could not just use the lipstick so it's not very good for that um I wouldn't recommend

this just because of the color, you can find other colors that are as nice as this.

This retails for 18 Euros, I think that is way too expensive, so yes I'm gonna use it

because I have it now but I'm not gonna repurchase.

Then there was this Bellapierre Cosmetics pro concealer palette.

Can you even see that?

I don't think so, there, now you can see it.

And it comes with a large mirror and these 3 shades.

This just proves how I should really um read the instructions, because I thought this was

supposed to be um another corrector, so you have the green corrector and I thought this

was supposed to be a kind of peachy corrector and I was confused that it was so light and

on my skin in was almost white, so it's not really a corrector.

It's not supposed to be a corrector.

This is just supposed to be two different concealer shades for your skin.

Both of them are too light for my skin which is surprising because I have very, very light

skin.

I do like the green because especially if you have a lot of redness, this is a really

nice texture and it's not as covering so you can really put it over large areas.

I don't like it very much just for pimples because I feel like it doesn't cover as much.

The concealer is like any cream concealer for me, it just does not work for me, it creases

in my eyes and it makes my skin look weird.

I much prefer liquid concealers, but maybe for other skin types, this will work.

This retails at 20 Euros.

Definitely not going to repurchase but I am very, very picky with my concealers.

I will use the green shade definitely especially because I have a lot of redness, so I might

just use it as like a base for my face.

It did a good job of cancelling out the slight redness, the redness of my capillaries.

Now the next product are these Nano 3 Styling hair rings.

Eco-friendly colors?

What is that supposed to mean?

What is eco-friendly about colors?

I'm confused um it's this tiny, like this is as far as it will go.

It's really this tiny, tiny hair tie and I have no idea what to do with this because

I tried using this just as a pony tail but that's too loose and my pony tail will fall,

but I can not wrap it around twice because it's too small so what do you use this for?

I have no idea, this is useless for me.

And for these it's 3,95.

I can get much better hair ties for cheaper than that.

Not happy with this at all.

I have no idea what I'm gonna do with it, I guess I'll give it to someone who can actually

use this who has thicker hair than me where they might actually be able to do a pony tail

with just wrapping this around once.

The last product is this Borotalco pure deodorant.

If you live in Austria there is ads all over tv for this.

I think this is an Italian brand.

It says it has no aluminum salt.

I can say this, I hate the smell.

I haven't tested it because I have an illness which is called Hidradenitis Suppurativa and

um I had to have all of the tissue in my armpits removed including the sweat glands, so I do

not sweat under my in my armpits, so I do not use deodorant.

So all I can say about this is that I hate the smell and for me this is completely useless

but I guess most people use deodorant so this is a full size product and I guess they would

like something like this.

I cant find it in the booklet.

Oh there we go.

This retails at 3.99 for 150ml.

Which I think is an ok price for this size deodorant but again I cannot really review

this because I cannot use it.

So that was my review of the Glossybox.

Overall I'm kind of disappointed in this month.

Last months was a lot better.

I really like the face mask, I'm repurchasing that again, but that's it and I'm not gonna

repurchase anything else.

So yeah I only payed 14 Euros for this, you know 14 Euros is a lot of money for some people,

if you don't have money you know disposable then 14 Euros is a lot of money, but to me

at this moment 14 Euros is not that much, so I can deal you know, with a few bad boxes.

One or two months of bad boxes and I will not be too sad.

If it continues like that I'm not gonna get the Glossybox anymore.

This is my second box only so I cant really judge yet whether it's good every month or

only every second month or only every 4 months, so but I'll keep you updated on that.

So I hope that you liked this video and I could, if you're not in Austria, which you're

probably not because this is in English, but so this is the Glossybox in Austria, let me

know in the comments down below if these boxes are different in your country if they are

more expensive but you get better products or if they're kind of the same I'm really

interested to know.

If you liked this video leave me a thumbs up, you can also subscribe right here, hit

that notification bell to be informed of when my videos come out, which is every Tuesday

and Friday and most of the time in between and I really hope I'll see you next video!

Bye bye!

11 Ways to Overcome a 1-Star Review for House Cleaning - Duration: 11:25.

How do you get rid of a one-star review?

We're going to talk about that today.

Hi there, I'm Angela Brown and this is Ask A House Cleaner.

This is a show where you get to ask a house cleaning question

and I get to help you find an answer.

Now today's show is brought to us by HouseCleaning360.com

which is a 360 view of the perfect home.

Now, when you set up your business, at HouseCleaning360.com

there's a section for ratings and reviews.

These are not ratings from customers necessarily, but it's from your business fan page,

so you can have cousins and aunts and uncles and parents and anybody that can give you a character

reference or that can recommend you to someone to do business with, this is where they put

their ratings and reviews for you.

So this goes beyond to just your customers who have done business with you, but people

who know you in other areas of life.

This is helpful in case there are people who want to know your character before they hire

you or bring you into their home.

All right, HouseCleaning360.com

Now onto today's show, which is about how do you get rid of a one-star review?

All right, so there are websites like Google and Yelp, that allow you to have customer

ratings and reviews that are on a scale of 1 to 5.

Now, these became really popular 10-15 years ago on sites like Amazon and eBay, where we

counted on the ratings and reviews before we did business with people, sight unseen.

All right, so this is a little bit different because this is not somebody shipping us something,

this is actually somebody coming into our home to help us with cleaning, okay?

So if we give ratings and reviews for our customers coming into our home, we want to

make sure that the cleaning that they're offering is in fact what they say it's going to be.

All right now, what's really interesting, when you get a one-star review, the very first

thing that happens is you want to get really angry, like, oh my goodness I can't believe

they don't appreciate my work, then you get all bent out of shape at the things that they said.

Okay, so stop for just a second.

When you get a one-star rating and review, there's actually a process to go through.

Process number one, stop.

Take your emotions out of the picture and step aside, okay?

So pretend this is not about you and your company.

Pretend it's about someone else.

Now the reason I say that is this if you can pretend this is one-star rating and review

is about someone else, you can look at it a little bit objectively instead of taking

it all personally.

Cause it's not personal, it's business.

It's a business transaction somebody didn't like.

That's it, that's all it is.

All right, the next thing I want you to do, is I want you to be empathetic.

I want you to think in the back of your mind, what if this is particular customer was my

mom or my grandma?

And you start thinking about this, oh she paid $200 dollars, she had a cleaning service

come over and after the cleaning service left, she found a hair behind her bathroom door,

because there was a hair behind her bathroom door on the floor, she assumed that there

were other parts of the house that where not clean or that were skipped.

And so, I can understand she paid all this money and there was a hair so she just had

these assumptions.

Now you can start feeling sorry for the customer and you can be a little bit more empathetic

as to where they're coming from.

All right the next thing I need you to do, this is step number three, is look at the

complaint, because guess what?

One star ratings and reviews, don't write themselves.

Lots of people will let stuff slide, and they kind of skip over stuff and go, well, not

what I was hoping for, they didn't do a very good job, whatever.

And they will let inadequate or average service slide.

So, if you get a one-star rating and review, that should be a wakeup call, like holy crap

what did we do wrong?

Right?

And if you have excellent customer service, you should be able to resolve this very quickly.

Now on your initial walkthrough, and this goes back before step number four, but on

your initial walkthrough, what you may want to do, is ask the customer, "Hey we specialize

in customer service.

If for any reason at any time you're not satisfied with our service, will you tell me before

you tell your social media?

Before you give me a rating and review online, will you tell me?

Because I would love to make it right personally."

Now, if you've explained that to your customer in your initial walkthrough when the opportunity

comes for them to call you and say, "Hey.

You need to give me my satisfaction guarantee and come back and clean this house."

There are already rules in place for that.

You're going to come back within 24 hours and you're going to make it right.

But if the first time you're hearing about the problem is on social media in a one-star

review, there's more than just one problem, okay?

You didn't explain very clearly about your customer service

and about your satisfaction guarantee.

All right, so then number four.

What you do when you get one?

Is if you have excellent customer service and you have already gone through the stepping

aside and looking at it from an empathetic situation, all right, now what you need to

do is to address the concern, because there is a one-star rating and review that's floating

around out there and it could bring your business down.

I don't say take it lightly if it's not to be taken lightly.

If it's rating and review of hate, which sometimes it is, that needs to be addressed.

Why does a customer hate you so bad?

Now I got one-star rating and review once from my consulting services.

The woman said it was the best consulting she'd ever had and she had some amazing things

that she was able to implement that skyrocketed her business

and she gave me a one-star rating and review.

When you look at that, there's nothing to correct.

You look at it and go, "Oh the woman got confused.

Instead of giving five stars, she gave one star."

So it wasn't even worth contacting her and saying, "Hey can you change that because you

give me a one-star rating and review, you're so confused."

Anyone reading the rating and review could have gone, "Ha ha ha, okay whatever."

So people will read the ratings and reviews, they do.

We read them on Trip Advisors before we take a trip.

We read them on Amazon before we buy products and it's amazing how many people won't go

to a restaurant if it has bad ratings and reviews.

So the ratings and reviews are paramount to the success of your business.

All right so when you address the rating and review, it's important that you address it

from a kind perspective.

This is why we take ourselves out of the situation, because whether you like it or not, whether

you admit it or not, whether you agree with me or not, is irrelevant.

You are the voice of your business.

You are the brand.

And so you need to be professional and kind no matter what you say.

So it's easy to fire back at the customer and go, "You don't know what you're talking about.

Our people were there for four hours."

Don't.

Please don't do that.

Acknowledge the customer had a concern because in the customer's mind, it's very real.

And so if it is a real customer, this is not a fake review, but if it is a real customer

that had a real situation, own it.

Take a 100% responsibility and say, "Oh my goodness, I can't believe we did this.

We must have had a day where we human.

I am so sorry you had to experience this.

In all fairness, we've never cleaned a house before with seven dogs running around and

so, we underestimated how things might slide or scoot or whatever and that hair would be

left when we were done.

We are so sorry.

We would have loved the chance to have heard this directly from you instead of reading

about it a week later on an online review.

We would have loved to resolve this immediately."

And so, you give the customer an opportunity of an out.

You want to acknowledge their pain.

You want to admit that something was wrong and you want to say, "We would have loved

the opportunity to make it right.

We specialize in customer service and we work off of referral only.

And so our reputation is our pride and so if we missed something, we want to be the

first ones to know about it, because we will do whatever it takes to make it right.

By the way, we would love to offer you a free cleaning at no expense because you had such

a terrible experience.

please give us a call and let us make that right."

All right, now the reason I say that is this, you don't want to throw your whole business

reputation away for a lousy $200 dollars or whatever it was of the cost of the cleaning.

You want to make sure that you make it right with the customer because a lot of times,

they will come back and say, "Oh my goodness, the owner of the company called me and they

made it right and no hard feelings, all is forgiven," whatever and then they will change

their rating and review.

Now, the next thing that I would like to recommend because there are so many people that rely

on ratings and reviews, you want to make sure that you have the best opportunity to get

a rating and review.

So if you have one bad star rating and review, you can counterbalance that with 95 good ones

and then people are going to go, wow.

But for most of the time, there's a really good experience.

So what I recommend is picking a website, Yelp, Google, HouseCleaning360, whatever your

site is, where you're promoting your business and get a QR code of your listing.

I'll put links in the show notes to the QR codes so you can make your own.

And then make up a business card that has your business name, your phone number, your

information and your QR code, and then give it to the customer and say, "Listen, if we

make a mistake, gosh, I hope we don't but we're human and we might make a mistake one

day, will you please give us the opportunity first before you tell your friends?

The information to call me is right here.

The day that we please and delight you, there's a QR code right here.

Scan this with your cell phone, it'll take you directly to the site and you can leave

us a positive rating and review.

So if you're not happy, call this side of the card, if you are happy, call this side

of the card."

And you can ask every customer for a positive rating and review and if they don't give it

to you today, they can keep the card and give it to you in two weeks or a month or a year

from now, when they're familiar with your service and they're comfortable with you and

they like and they've had a pleasant experience.

But before they go to social media, before the blast you to their friends, before they

leave you a bad rating and review.

Let them give you the chance to call you first.

And when they call you don't, please don't be defensive.

Be accepting and say, "Hey I understand there was a situation here.

As the owner, I'm willing to give it whatever it takes to make this situation right.

What do we need to do?"

And then ask this question, here are the magic words, "What do you think is fair?"

Because when you ask a customer what they think is fair, sometimes what they think is

fair, sometimes what they're going to say is, "Well, I'll just pick up the hair behind

the bathroom door and from now on just pay attention."

Or they might say, "No, come over and clean up the hair that's behind my bathroom door."

They're not going to say, "Come over and re-clean my whole house for free."

That's not fair but when you let them decide what's fair, often times it's something very

small, it's a small concession.

What they're saying is I want to be heard, and I want to be acknowledged and I want to

get value for the money that I paid.

That's it.

Most people are fair and that's all they want.

So that's how you get rid of and overcome and deal with one-star ratings and reviews.

All righty until we meet again,

leave the world a cleaner place than when you found it.

Diaper Bag Review | NEW DIAPER BAG | Babymel George Backpack - Duration: 5:39.

Hey guys, this is Jana from The Baby Cubby and today we're super excited to do a review

of a new backpack styled diaper bag.

This is the George by Babymel.

Babymel aims to create super functional diaper bags that don't sacrifice on style and the

George definitely meets both of those criteria.

It has wipe clean polyester with faux leather trim and the inside is a really cute heart

embossed pattern.

So this diaper bag comes with a padded changing pad, as well as having integrated stroller

straps, which I love.

You don't have to fiddle with adding those on afterwards.

They're already attached.

It's also super lightweight.

It's 1.54 lbs and it comes in this neutral black and grey option as well as this really

cute oatmeal and blue for those of us who like a little bit more color.

Both are still totally unisex which is something we absolutely love about this bag.

So this bag features a really easy quick grab handle and it can also be warn as a backpack.

The straps are padded so they are pretty comfortable to wear.

So one thing we love about this bag is it does have a ton of pockets.

It obviously has the large zippered interior pocket and here you're going to find two elasticise

bottle pockets that are insulated so that will keep milk hot or cold for 4-6 hours it

also has two elastic pockets that you can stuff diapers, snacks, whatever you need to

in there.

And it does have a large padded tech pocket that will fit a 13" lap top.

On the outside we have a bottle pocket as well.

This one will fit pretty standard sized baby bottles and it will also fit a larger como

tomo bottle as well, it's a little bit of a tight squeeze but you can get it in there.

We also have this front flap where you can access the zippered pocket that will have

your changing pad and there also is an elasticized pocket here that you can stick diapers or

anything else that you need.

One thing that's really cool about this pocket here is that the magnetic flaps, now they're

not really necessary for the function of the bag.

It's just for aesthetics but we really like that that magnets find each other really easily.

On some bags that we've played with you have to actually guide the magnet to the other

magnet to attach it.

But this one it will just snap close really easily and you don't really have to fuss with

it.

Then over here we have this really cool easy wipes dispenser.

So you just stick your wipes in there and you can just lift the flap and pull out.

And you're ready to go for quick and easy diaper changes.

One thing to note though is this will fit those really small individual travel wipes

better then something like this that has like the hard plastic cover so if you can purchase

the smaller travel wipes that would work better with this bag.

My favorite feature of this bag is that it actually has this hidden security pocket back

here.

When I pack a backpack style bag I don't like putting my phone or keys or wallet on any

of the outer pockets because, maybe this is paranoid of me but anybody could just sneak

in and rob me.

Which would not be cool.

But then if you have it in the interior pockets it's kind of a pain because if you're wearing

a backpack.

You have to take it off and turn it around and go inside and get your stuff.

Where as with this cool little security pocket, all of your stuff you want to keep secure

is against your back, so no one can grab it from you easily, but then it's really easy

for you to just swing your backpack off of your shoulder and access whats inside.

Zip up and then put it back on.

So super cool feature that I wish more diaper bags had!

If you have questions so far feel free to comment below or you can send us an email

at hello@babycubby.com So a couple things that we really love about this diaper bag.

We mentioned the stroller straps are integrated.

So that's really nice you don't have to attach anything additional, or store anything additional,

and possibly lose anything additional.

The velcro is a little bit loud but it does attach to the stroller really easily.

We also love that this diaper bag is wipe clean.

The outside is going to be wipe clean, the interior is going to be wipe clean as well

and the changing pad is machine washable and air dry.

So that's easy to take care of as well.

Overall we really love this diaper bag.

It's super easy to keep organized with all of the pockets.

The only draw back that we see is that it might be a little small if you have multiple

children and need to pack necessities for all of those kids plus yourself.

Unless you're really good at militaristic diaper bag packing, which I am not!

I am definitely an over packer.

So if that's you too, you might want to consider a bag that's a little bit bigger, but this

one is going to be easy to keep organized and pack a decent amount of stuff.

So if you're in the market for a budget friendly diaper bag, this is definitely one to consider

because at $90 bucks you really can't beat this diaper bag.

One thing to note, I did mention that in order to use this wipes case effectively you might

want to buy something that doesn't have this little plastic cover, those thinner travel

wipes would be a lot easier to use in here.

However if you don't anticipate using the wipes case feature of this diaper bag you

can still totally use this as just a regular bottle pocket and then stash your wipes in

here with your diapers instead.

So customize it to how you would like to use the bag.

So once again the Babymel George retails for $90.

You can find it on our website at www.babycubby.com where we have free shipping all the time.

We also price match and we have a super cool new rewards feature where if you create an

account on our website you get 5% back on all your purchases that you can spend as in

store credit.

So it's basically like we're giving you free money.

So make sure you sign up for that.

We have how tos videos, and other reviews that are super helpful for you.

Helping parents win is one of our goals so we hope that we helped you out with your parenting

journey today!

Thanks for watching!

Roeckl Madrid Gloves Review - Duration: 1:25.

KELCIE: Hi, I'm Kelcie. I work in Marketing, and today

I'm going to be reviewing the Roeckl Madrid Gloves.

I love the Roeckl brand, and when I bought these gloves I

was looking for something that would be light and comfortable

to wear in the summertime. Not only do these look great but

they're also extremely functional.

So the material on the back of these gloves is a micro mesh,

which really keeps your hands nice and cool.

And these gloves also have reinforcement in all

of the right places. Another thing I really

like about these gloves is the material on the palm

offers a really great grip on the reins.

I've had my gloves for well over a year and I ride six or seven

days a week sometimes riding multiple horses, and these have

really stood up to the demands of riding.

What makes these gloves different from other ones I've

had in the past is their sporty and modern design.

I typically wear these while schooling, but I have worn

them in some lower level shows. Another great thing about these

gloves is they're touch-screen friendly so you can use them

on your cell phone. These gloves would be perfect

for anyone who's looking for a long lasting

and comfortable schooling glove. I don't typically wash my gloves

but after each ride I will usually hang them up so

they have a little bit of time to air dry. However, if you do

want to wash your gloves you can put them on a cold,

delicate cycle and hang to dry. I found that these gloves do run

true-to-size but if you're having trouble finding the right

size for your hand, you can visit the website.

There's a detailed instruction page on how to measure,

and Roeckl also has a really good sized chart. I'm Kelcie,

and you'll always find me riding in my Roeckl Madrid Gloves.
