Peter Moon
Peter Moon is primarily known for his investigation of space-time projects. Born and raised in California, he was an avid read who studied creative writing and was particularly interested in both the scientific extrapolations of science fiction as well as the high adventure that it provided. His interest in Eastern Religion and Western Occultism culminated in a unique career and association that centered around the private concerns of L. Ron Hubbard, a renown science fiction writer who was an accomplished occultist but is also known as the controversial founder of Dianetics and Scientology.
Peter went out on his own in 1983 and moved to Long Island where his unique background enabled him to forge an association with scientist Preston Nichols, one of the world's foremost experts in the world on electromagnetic phenomena who had been involved in strange experiments at the Montauk Air Force Station on Long Island which included the manipulation of time. Their collaboration in writing "The Montauk Projct: Experiments in Time" and its subsequent sequels have now reached legendary proportions.
Peter's work caught the attention of time control scientist, Dr. David Anderson of the Time Travel Research Center on Long Island who invited him to Romania and paved the way for him to investigate other space-time projects as discussed in the Transylvania Series. Peter has just released a new series of videos "Time Travel Theory Explained" which explains in simple language the actual scientific principles demonstrating that time travel is within the boundaries of ordinary mathematics and physics.

Press release: Local COVID alert level update: areas moving to 'high'
Created by Department Of Health 0 comments
After close discussions with local leaders, the following areas will move from local COVID alert level medium to local COVID alert level high from 00.01 on Saturday 31 October.
Yorkshire and the Humber:
West Midlands:
East Midlands:
Amber Valley
Derbyshire Dales
Derby City
South Derbyshire
High Peak (whole of)
East of England:
South East:
Oxford City
This means that for these areas, the following measures will be in place:
people must not meet with anybody outside their household or support bubble in any indoor setting, whether at home or in a public place
people must not meet in a group of more than 6 outside, including in a garden or other space
people should aim to reduce the number of journeys they make where possible. If they need to travel, they should walk or cycle where possible, or plan ahead and avoid busy times and routes on public transport
These measures will be reviewed every 14 days to consider whether they are still appropriate.
The rate of COVID-19 infections is rising rapidly across the UK. The weekly case rate in England stood at 201 people per 100,000 from 15 October to 21 October, up from 100 people per 100,000 for the week 25 September to 1 October. Cases are not evenly spread, with infection rates rising more rapidly in some areas than others.
Health and Social Care Secretary Matt Hancock said:
We continue to see a worrying rise in cases right across the country, and it is clear decisive action is needed.
We have agreed with local leaders to move more areas into the high local COVID alert level this week.
These restrictions are challenging for us all, but it is only by working together and following the rules that we will bring down the rates of infection. A failure to act now will only lead to longer disruption and greater economic damage. I want to thank everyone who is playing their part to break the chains of transmission across the country. We will beat this virus, but we must stick together as we enter the winter months.
It has been agreed that all other areas currently in high will remain at this level until the next review.
All available data for the areas has been assessed by the government, including the Health and Social Care Secretary, NHS Test and Trace, the Joint Biosecurity Centre (JBC), Public Health England (PHE), the Chief Medical Officer and the Cabinet Office. Data assessed includes incidence, test positivity and the growth rate of the virus.
It is essential that outbreaks are contained to protect lives and our NHS, and prevent greater economic damage in the future. The country faces a new challenge as winter approaches, and even mild cases of COVID-19 can have devastating consequences for people in all age groups, along with the risk of long COVID.
The governments strategy is to suppress the virus while supporting the economy, education and the NHS, until an effective vaccine is widely available.
Local action is at the centre of the governments response, and engagement with local authorities is, and will continue to be, a key part of this process.

Volkswagen and 'the Normalization of Deviance'
Posted by Aaron Gilbreath
Photo by Russ Allison Loar, Flickr
Volkswagen recently admitted to intentionally skirting U.S. emissions controls by installing "defeat devices" in nearly 500,000 vehicles. This scandal has undermined their credibility and profitability. In The Atlantic, Jerry Useem looks at historic precedents in other large organizations such as Johnson & Johnson, Ford and NASA to explore Volkswagen's expensive mistake and the corporate climate that led to it:
The sociologist Diane Vaughan coined the phrase the normalization of deviance to describe a cultural drift in which circumstances classified as "not okay" are slowly reclassified as "okay." In the case of the Challenger space-shuttle disaster—the subject of a landmark study by Vaughan—damage to the crucial O‑rings had been observed after previous shuttle launches. Each observed instance of damage, she found, was followed by a sequence "in which the technical deviation of the [O‑rings] from performance predictions was redefined as an acceptable risk." Repeated over time, this behavior became routinized into what organizational psychologists call a "script." Engineers and managers "developed a definition of the situation that allowed them to carry on as if nothing was wrong." To clarify: They were not merely acting as if nothing was wrong. They believed it, bringing to mind Orwell's concept of doublethink, the method by which a bureaucracy conceals evil not only from the public but from itself.
If that comparison sounds overwrought, consider the words of Denny Gioia, a management professor at Penn State who, in the early 1970s, was the coordinator of product recalls at Ford. At the time, the Ford Pinto was showing a tendency to explode when hit from behind, incinerating passengers. Twice, Gioia and his team elected not to recall the car—a fact that, when revealed to his M.B.A. students, goes off like a bomb. "Before I went to Ford I would have argued strongly that Ford had an ethical obligation to recall," he wrote in the Journal of Business Ethics some 17 years after he'd left the company. "I now argue and teach that Ford had an ethical obligation to recall. But, while I was there, I perceived no strong obligation to recall and I remember no strong ethical overtones to the case whatsoever."

Sponsored Longreads: Read the First Chapters of 'Challenger: An American Tragedy'
Posted by Longreads
The following is an excerpt from Open Road Media's Challenger: An American Tragedy, the new book by Hugh Harris, NASA's "voice of launch control," who recounts the shuttle tragedy that occurred nearly 30 years ago. Buy the book now.
Chapter One: A Look Back Twenty-Eight Years
Challenger was a spacecraft designed to transport, protect, and nurture its seven-member crew as it transported them beyond the limits of our home planet's life-support system. There, they would conduct experiments to improve lives on Earth. Among its passengers was the first civilian crewmember, the "Teacher in Space" Sharon Christa McAuliffe (known as Christa), who was already inspiring a generation of school children.
I had watched from the firing room as the twenty-four previous shuttles rocketed upward and successfully returned to Earth. But on January 28, 1986, Challenger was engulfed in a fiery inferno in full view of thousands of people at the center and millions of others viewing the launch on television.
The tragedy produced a myriad of human emotions. For Todd Halvorson of Florida Today, it was an unforgettable introduction to space reporting. Hired the day before, but not yet on the job, he stepped out of the Cocoa Beach Holiday Inn to watch. Burned into his psyche are the pitchfork contrails and the memory of a weeping young girl, pointing upward and crying over and over, "The teacher is up there! The teacher is up there!"
For some young astronauts, it was a "loss of innocence" that took some time to accept. Franklin Chang-Díaz flew on STS-61C, the shuttle mission just a few weeks before Challenger. He and his crew experienced the tragedy from a viewing room at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.
"I think we were all unprepared to deal with this kind of event," he says. "From my first flight before the Challenger disaster, to my second flight, after, it felt as if we had lost our innocence. When I went into my second flight—well, it was probably the same way a soldier goes into battle with a few scars. You don't look at that battlefield the same way you did on the first day. I mean, it was still exciting, it was still wonderful, but we realized it was not child's play anymore."
Lisa Malone, then a young public information specialist who would become director of public affairs for the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) twenty years later, recalled, "At the time, I was angry. I was angry at the engineers. I didn't yet realize how hard space flight was. Later, as I started to go to more technical meetings, I learned the difficulty of managing risk posed by a highly complex vehicle."
The accident triggered in-depth investigations and denied the nation of human access to space for almost three years. Unmanned launches continued, but our astronauts stayed on the ground.
It brought into question the way management and technical experts worked together. It highlighted the role played by political decisions and uncertain year-to-year funding. It exposed the roadblocks to communication imposed by managers and organizational culture.
It was a chilling reminder that it is safer to sit on the ground than fly into space. But that's not an option for the human race.
Ultimately, it helped enable 110 more space-shuttle flights and the construction of the International Space Station, which ranks near the top of human achievement.
Dozens of people gave the "go" to launch on that morning twenty-eight years ago, and tens of thousands more had worked on the hardware. Yet, despite all of the investigative probing and some rancorous finger-pointing in the months to follow, no one ever alleged less than a strong desire to do his or her job to the best of his or her ability.
It demonstrated, once again, how much there is to learn as humankind continues to advance the boundaries of science, technology, and human interaction.
On that day, I was the chief of public information for NASA's Kennedy Space Center and the launch commentator. This piece will take you on the same journey I experienced in the hours before launch and then along the bumpy road to find the cause of the accident and heal the system.
Chapter Two: A Cold, Cold Night
The night of January 28, 1986, was the coldest I can remember in Florida. But when I left my house in Cocoa Beach at two a.m., I wasn't thinking of the cold. I was worrying about getting to the Kennedy Space Center on time.
Every time I served as "the voice of launch control" for a space shuttle launch—a responsibility I had held beginning with STS-1 in 1981—I worried that my car would be delayed by the hundreds of thousands of people who came to watch. If I didn't get to the firing room on time, the launch would have happened anyway, but I would have felt like I'd let down the team.
But this morning, as I drove toward KSC, I did not find the usual congregation of cars. Very few were parked along the causeway over the Banana River. Normally, even at that early hour in the morning, and eight or more hours before a launch, the causeways were crowded. Families would leave their cars to make new friends or gather around radios to keep track of the progress of launch preparations. Cars would sport license plates from dozens of states—California, Washington, even Alaska. The space program was a source of national pride, and we who were privileged to work in it could not help but be inspired.
But this night was different. The few who had come were huddled inside their vehicles.
In the distance, Pad 39 B and Challenger were sparkling in the pure white light of the xenon searchlights. The thick shafts of light illuminated the rocket vehicle and slanted skyward for many miles.
As I drove toward the center along State Route 3 on Merritt Island, some of the orange groves huddled under blankets of smoke from large bonfires created to help protect the fruit from freezing. Most of the large groves had been flooded or sprayed with water. The temperature of fruit encased with ice does not drop below freezing. Smudge pots were no longer used due to pollution.
The air temperature was in the low thirties and dropping rapidly into the twenties. The smaller grove owners could not afford to protect their groves, and a week later their oranges would be thudding to the ground at the rate of a dozen per minute.
The officers at the first guard gate wore heavy jackets. "Do you think it will go, Mr. Harris?" one asked.
I told them the launch had already been postponed an hour and might be delayed further because of concern due to the cold. I said, "They're supposed to start tanking around three a.m. If they tank, they'll try to launch. They have about a two-hour window."
In capitulation to the freezing cold, the press site looked pretty deserted when I arrived. Normally, the photographers and reporters would be walking between buildings or gathered in little groups for a smoke. This morning they were all indoors.
There were fewer press representatives than normal, as well. The shuttle launches had become routine through the years. About five hundred media had been accredited for Challenger—as opposed to five times that number for STS-1. As I recall, only one of the major networks was covering the launch live.
The science writers typically on hand for launch had a conflict this time. Press briefings were taking place at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, where many of the most knowledgeable space reporters were learning what scientists were discovering as Voyager flew past Uranus. Laurie Garrett of National Public Radio described the experience by saying, "Every single minute Uranus was blowing our minds more than the minute before. The moons of Uranus were absolutely the most stupendously puzzling things any of us had ever covered."
The twelve-acre press site is located at the Banana River Turn Basin, slightly more than three miles from the launch pads. During the Apollo program, barges bringing the rocket stages from Michoud Assembly Facility, just outside of New Orleans, unloaded at the turn basin; now it was the shuttles' external tanks that were unloaded there. It is just across the road from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), where the Solid Rocket Boosters (SRB), external tanks, and orbiters were bolted together on a mobile launch platform before being taken to one of the two launch pads, designated Pads 39 A and 39 B. The Challenger launch was taking place from 39 B.
A three- to four-acre, six-foot-high mound had been built along the back of the press site with material dredged up to deepen the turn basin. On top was a 350-seat grandstand fitted with long counters, telephone hookups, and folding chairs, as well as several permanent structures put up by NASA, the major television networks, and the wire services. Another half-dozen office trailers had been brought in by Florida Today, the Orlando Sentinel, the Nikon camera company, and others were split between the mound and the lower level.
The public information office, my home away from home, was located at the press site in a geodesic dome originally bought for the United States Bicentennial Exposition. It also provided working space for media who didn't have their own facilities. KSC office spaces lined one inner wall of the dome; along the other were several rows of long, counter-like desks for the press with assigned spaces where they could order temporary phone hookups. There were bins for fact sheets and news releases and a bank of pay phones.
A waist-high counter separated the press from the information people and provided space for the press to ask questions. Members of the press were not allowed behind the counter unless they were invited in for an interview or other business.
The flags of the sixteen countries that were partners with the United States for the Spacelab missions and for the future International Space Station flew over the press area.
Down below the mound were several acres of grass and the large, iconic countdown clock at the water's edge. Many news photographers had used the countdown clock in the foreground of pictures of previous launches. Thousands more posed with it as proof that they had covered history.
For each launch, temporary grandstands were trucked in to accommodate about a thousand VIP visitors. These included the extended families of the astronauts who were flying and guests invited by NASA headquarters or other centers. The immediate families of the astronauts and special guests, such as members of Congress, would watch from the roof of the Launch Control Center.
Approximately twenty thousand other invited guests would be taken by bus or given car passes to park on the causeway across the Banana River connecting KSC and the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station about seven miles from the pads. Loudspeakers set up in each location allowed my commentary to keep them informed about what was happening. Public affairs representatives and car parkers at each location helped direct them and answer questions.
I reached the press site about eight hours before the then-scheduled launch time of 10:38 a.m. and went into my office after checking with the staff and saying hello to the press who had come in early. Almost everyone commented on the cold and speculated that we would postpone the launch for a third time.
The launch scheduled for two days earlier had been canceled because of the weather forecast. It turned out to be a perfect day. The attempt of the previous day, January 27, had been scrubbed because sensors showed that the crew ingress door on the Challenger was not securely closed. Once that was corrected, the handle used to latch the door could not be removed without drilling out the bolts. Time ran out, and crosswinds at the shuttle landing facility became unacceptable.
Finally we were at January 28. The day had everything going for it in terms of weather, except the bitter cold.
The first person I called was information specialist Andrea Shea King, who was in the firing room, keeping the press informed on the progress of loading liquid hydrogen and oxygen. "What are you hearing on the OIS?" I asked, referring to the Operational Intercom System, which tied all elements of the launch team together on more than thirty voice circuits.
"It's been pretty smooth, except for concern about ice on the pad," she reported. "The temperature is below thirty-two degrees. All the valves on the water lines on the pad have been open slightly all night so that they don't freeze. Can you see the icicles?"

Despite fears that NASA and the United States have given up on space exploration, the focus has simply shifted to private companies like Virgin and SpaceX, which are preparing for commercial space travel:
"This was the International Symposium for Personal and Commerical Spaceflight. It had been co-founded eight years earlier by a New Mexico State professor named Pat Hynes, who had been studying and advocating for the commercial potential of space for twenty years. She has watched the conference grow in size and influence alongside the industry. Now, the facility buzzed with engineers and scientists and entrepreneurs and astronauts. Sponsors included Lockheed Martin and Boeing, a European company touting its ability to 'launch any payload to any orbit at anytime,' and another company claiming the authority to sell plots of land on the moon. Hynes, ecstatic, inaugurated the conference by shouting a 'Let's rock this house!' welcome, before introducing Michael Lopez-Alegria, a recently retired space-shuttle astronaut who spoke of his conversion from 'skeptic with outright disdain for the idea of commercial space" to a "Kool-Aid-pouring believer' in the private space industry."

Michael "Mike" Windischmann (born Nuremberg, Germany) is a retired American soccer defender who played in both the Major Indoor Soccer League and the American Soccer League. He earned fifty caps with the U.S. national team and was the captain of the U.S. team at the 1990 FIFA World Cup. He is a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
National team 3
Although born in Germany, Windischmann's family moved to the United States when he was an infant. He attended Thomas Edison High School in New York City. He began playing soccer when he was six years old and developed as a player, not in the school system, but playing for local New York City clubs. These included Blau-Weiss Gottschee, S.C. Gjoa and Queens United. He played college soccer at Adelphi University. In 1986, Adelphi University inducted Windischmann into the school's Athletic Hall of Fame.
After graduating from Adelphi University[1] in 1986, Windischmann chose an alternate career from most of his peers. At the time, the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) was the destination of choice for collegiate soccer players. Windischmann decided instead to play for the Brooklyn Italians of New York City's Cosmopolitan League. He played two seasons with the Italians before joining the Los Angeles Lazers of MISL. His single season with the Lazers ran the 1988 to 1989 season when the team folded at the end of the season. Windischmann then moved to the Albany Capitals of the American Soccer League for another single season. At the end of the 1990 season, Windischmann retired from professional soccer.
In 1985, Windischmann played for the U.S. at the U-16 World Cup.
Windischmann earned his first cap with the senior national team in 1984. He also played for the U.S. at the 1985 World University Games. Two years later, in 1987, he again played at the World University Games. That year, he was also on the U.S. team at the 1987 Pan American Games. The U.S. went 1-1-1 and did not make the second round.
The three years of 1988 to 1990 saw his international career reach its height. It began with the 1988 Summer Olympics where Windischmann was a member of the U.S. team. Windischmann considers one of his all time career highlights, scoring a goal in a 1-1 tie with Argentina. Despite this excellent result, the U.S. finished the first round at 1-1-1 and did not qualify for the second round.
Windischmann saw more personal success the next year when he was chosen as the 1989 U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year. He was also named as the captain for the 1990 FIFA World Cup qualification games. Windischmann's greatest achievement came when he captained the U.S. team at the 1990 FIFA World Cup. This was the first time the U.S. had made it to the World Cup since 1950. By the time Windischmann retired in 1990, he held the national-team record for the most consecutive games played (36) and started (33).
Windischmann also played for the U.S. at the 1989 and 1992 FIFA Futsal World Championship which finished third and second respectively. He earned 24 caps and scored 4 goals for the United States national futsal team between 1986 and 1992.
In 2004, he was elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
He currently teaches and coaches at the Susan B. Anthony Academy, New York. He is also the technical director of the Brooklyn Knights, which plays in New York's Cosmopolitan Junior Soccer League.

Buzz Marketing: How to Get People Talking About Your Brand

Main Buzz Marketing Takeaways:
Buzz marketing leverages creative content, interactive events, and community influencers to maximize word-of-mouth potential.
Brands primarily use buzz marketing to attract a lot of attention in a short time.
Viral marketing is online based, while buzz marketing is event-based.
Some buzz marketing tools include seeding, scarcity, referral program, to name a few.
For any buzz marketing campaign to be successful, you must give your audience something to talk about.
Creating buzz involves spreading awareness about a brand or its message.
What is Buzz Marketing
Buzz marketing is a strategy that leverages creative content, interactive events, as well as community influencers to maximize word-of-mouth potential. It's a term that describes marketing campaigns that are managed in a brief period. Businesses use this tactic to create anticipation before launching a product or service. In buzz marketing, the goal is to get your brand in front of a vast number of people as soon as possible. This form of marketing doesn't allow you to remain in front of the crowd for an extended period. As a result, the whole process is highly dynamic and exciting.
Brands primarily use this marketing tactic to attract a lot of attention in a short time. And it works.
Millennials ranked word-of-mouth as the primary influencer in their purchasing decisions about clothes, packaged goods, and financial products. Similarly, Baby Boomers select word-of-mouth as the most influential in their purchasing decisions about big-ticket items and financial products.
Later in the article, we'll explore ways to leverage buzz marketing in your business. For now, Let's talk about viral marketing.
Difference Between Buzz Marketing and Viral Marketing
Viral marketing refers to an attempt to deliver a marketing message that spreads quickly and exponentially among consumers. It usually involves the use of social media channels or email marketing to spread a word. Buzz marketing, on the other hand, could be an event or activity that generates publicity and excitement while providing information to consumers. It usually combines exciting, jaw-dropping event or experience with pure branding. Both forms of marketing apply the same principle to get noticed. However, unlike viral marketing, a buzz is more event-based. Today, advertisers combine buzz with elements of viral marketing to spread the word about a product or service.

Buzz Marketing is a great way to market and promote a specific product. It is easy to accomplish and does not take a lot of time. It is also one of the fastest ways to get your message out there to the masses.
If you are looking for a new way to promote a product, then you may want to give this a try. You can even use Buzz Marketing with other marketing strategies if you so choose. Just make sure that you are advertising to the correct demographic before you do so.
But how does it work?
How Does Buzz Marketing Works
As said earlier, buzz marketing focuses on maximizing the word-of-mouth strategy of a campaign. It often begins with the influencers or early adopters of a product that are eager to share their thoughts. These sets of people typically have a strong social media presence, and they proactively start conversations about a product or service. Since the opinion of these influencers can reach a broad audience quickly, marketers often rely on them when trying to build a buzz.
Other strategies include using influencer bloggers and website forums to create a stir.
Why is Buzz Marketing Effective?
Buzz marketing works because of the way it gets people interested in the brand. Imagine using press releases, free offers, and deals to spread information about your business. Not only will the target audience notice your brand, but they'll also be quick to share the information with their family and friends. This would result in more interest in your brand from the moment they see it, and it would further expand your word-of-mouth campaign.
A report from HubSpot suggests that 75 percent of people don't believe adverts. On the other hand, 90 percent trust suggestions from family and friends, and 70 percent trust consumer reviews.
What are the Buzz Marketing Tools?
Buzz marketing tools describes some methods that companies use to increase word-of-mouth. An example of such a tool that brands use is interpersonal communication networks. It involves using influential people within a specific network to accelerate the adoption of products. For instance, celebrities can spread information about new products to the public via word-of-mouth.
Other popular buzz marketing tools include:
1. Seeding
Seeding is one of the most effective buzz marketing tools that companies use today.
It involves handing out product or service samples at specific points in different networks. That way, people in multiple networks will be stimulated to discuss the brand's offering at the same time.
Companies use samples to make strong impressions. And the reason is apparent.
We tend to remember things that engage our senses — things that we see, hear, feel, and touch. And the more people remember a product, the more likely they are to refer to others.
Studies suggest that creating a buzz by giving out samples only works for products that people are already talking about.
2. Using Scarcity and Mystery
The scarcity principle refers to a social-psychological phenomenon that causes people to assign high value to products that are hard to find.
Brands use such scarcity and mystery to maximize word-of-mouth about their product or service. It suggests that people will think that a product is more valuable because it's scarce or hard to find.
One company that excels at using scarcity and mystery for buzz marketing is Nike. The sneaker giant uses a "Limited Edition" tactic to create scarcity and a sense of urgency.
In 2005, Nike released the militaristic collaboration Air Jordan IV's at a retail price of $200. Since it was only about 72 pairs, the demand for the sneaker generated high demand and buzz.
Eleven years later, the sneaker sold for a whopping $18,500 at the resale market.
3. Taking People Behind the Scenes
Another quick way to generate buzz about a product or service is to take people behind the scenes. It taps into people's curiosity about how things work and the effort that goes into creating a product.
With that said, "behind the scenes" doesn't have to be taken literally. It could involve providing exclusive inside information to a specific set of customers. That way, they can share it with others.
4. Tell-a-Friend Promotion
Finally, brands use various tell-a-friend promotions and referral programs for buzz marketing.
As the name implies, a tell-a-friend promotion is a tool that encourages customers to tell other people about a product or service. In return, they receive some reward for their effort.
However, the incentive shouldn't be so big that it seduces people to recommend a product. It's essential to find a balance.
How to Apply Buzz Marketing Principle for Online Marketing
The most critical component when creating buzz around your business is word of mouth. You can do this using various ways, such as finding and using the services of a local SEO company. Another option is to write and submit articles to local newspapers and magazines. Note that the material can only go viral if you include valuable information or present a remarkable offer. When you can write an article that attracts readers, you will be able to generate a buzz around your business.
Image Credit: talha khalil | pixabay.com
With that said, several factors can help create buzz around your business. Here are a few to consider.
1. There Must Be Something to Talk About
For any buzz marketing campaign to be successful, you must give your audience something to talk about. Whether it's your brand, product, or service, you have to get people talking to spread the buzz.
For example, a Utah-based blender manufacturing company, Blendtec, wanted to get people to spread the word about its powerful blenders.
So, the company made a video that shows the blenders crushing marbles, iPhones, and golf balls into smoothies. It was an instant hit, getting over 12 million views on YouTube.
While the content was outrageous, it was connected to the brand and close to what it does.
2. Work With Influencers
Creating buzz involves spreading awareness about a brand or its message. And that's where an influencer comes in.
The promoters of the Dettol brand, Reckitt Benckiser, wanted to reach a larger audience, so it came up with a smart idea.
The company distributed 48,000 samples of its product to 4,000 influencers. After trying the sample, the influencers had to share the remaining ten with other people.
And it worked! Not only did the company reach 46 percent of its audience, but sales also rose by a whopping 86 percent.
Reckitt Benckiser had successfully created a buzz around its brand.
3. Make the Offer Remarkable
Today, you'll find tons of enticing offers on the internet, whether it's "life-long warranty" or "buy one, get one free offer." While these offers may generate sales, they are not as remarkable as you might imagine.
So, what makes an offer remarkable?
To stand out from its competition, clothing company, Zappos offered a "365-day" return policy as well as an unmatched customer service. The CEO, Tony Hseih, reportedly created a budget for this purpose.
As you may have guessed, the effort paid off in the long run. People soon started talking about Zappos's impressive customer service, and this — among other things — helped the company achieve $2 billion.
You must use this marketing technique as sparingly as possible, and here's why.
Early forms of online buzz such as pop-up ads, email marketing, and banner ads, to name a few, were initially successful. But consumers have gotten better at identifying buzz marketing over the years.
So, it no longer generates the excitement you need to create that buzz. Instead, consumers treat this form of marketing as a minor annoyance, while ignoring the marketer's message.
Also, it's essential to connect your campaign with the brand or product itself. It's not enough to create a piece of content if your audience can't identify your brand.

My building's new key fob system keeps locking me out. What do I do?
Your rights as a tenant include 24/7 access to your apartment.

My landlord installed a new key fob system in the building a year ago, and it hasn't worked consistently. If the internet goes out, which it does often, and when it rains, the system also goes down, and we have no way to get in. We've told him we need a backup, but he refuses to provide one. What can we do?
Among your rights as a tenant is access to your apartment at all times, our experts say, and your building's new security system is depriving you of that, so you certainly have the right to take action.
"When you lease an apartment, you get the right to exclusive possession and quiet enjoyment of that apartment," says Sam Himmelstein, a lawyer who represents residential and commercial tenants and tenant associations (and FYI, a Brick sponsor). "If you're being deprived of the ability to get into your own apartment, your lease is being breached."
As for what you can do to remedy the situation, there are a few different steps you can take. First, it may be worthwhile to call 311 or contact the city's department of Housing Preservation and Development.
"This is an unsafe situation for an owner of the home, and it violates your rights, so there's no reason that you should not complain and have your complaint addressed properly," says Deanna Kory, a broker with Corcoran.
Indeed, this situation could be dangerous for elderly tenants or those with small children who can't get in or out of the building, and should be addressed as soon as possible. If your landlord is being uncooperative, you might try taking another route.
"You could try to find out what the key fob system is and get in touch with the manufacturer," says William Gribben, a partner at HMGDJ Law. "Find out from a mechanical point of view what can be done. If nobody can get into the building, there needs to be a back-up system when the key fob doesn't work. Either the building management could leave a door open with a security guard posted there, or have an old-fashioned lock on the door."
Other options are to have management provide an alternate entrance, like a side door or access through the garage. But since your landlord has already refused to help with this matter, you and your neighbors may need to band together and take him to housing court.
"This is something tenants could organize about. If the landlord starts to hear from a large group, it will be much more effective," Himmelstein says. "You could also bring an HP action against the landlord in housing court, and get a court order that says the landlord has to provide 24/7 access to the building."
Generally, you'll have your day in court within seven to 10 days of filing an HP proceeding, so this may be the most expedient way to address the problem.

Government announces re-think on supermarket reform
government-announces-re-think-on-supermarket-reform
"Mr Speaker, following the government's consultation on its proposals to reform the grocery industry, we have been pleased to take on board most of the recommendations of the Supermarket Future Forum. In particular:
"The commissioning consortia that purchase groceries on behalf of consumers will be required to have a transparent governing body and to explain how money is being spent on groceries and why particular groceries have been bought. Commissioning consortia will now include a much wider range of grocery and retail professionals. Multi-professional advice will be required before any groceries are bought on behalf of consumers. Consumer wellbeing boards will have greater powers to require commissioning consortia to explain how their purchasing decisions promote the wellbeing of consumers.
"The National Grocery Commissioning Board will set the parameters for choice and competition in all parts of the grocery industry. A Citizen's Panel will report to Parliament on how well that mandate has been implemented.
"The National Food Regulator's role in relation to competition will be diluted. Instead of promoting competition among supermarkets, its primary duty will be to support collaboration and integration among different grocery outlets. Private grocery outlets will not be allowed to 'cherry pick' customers from others, and the government will not seek to increase the number of supermarkets.
"The Secretary of State will remain ultimately accountable for the grocery industry. The Secretary of State will be given a strong and clear duty to involve customers in the organisation and management of supermarket chains.
"The Food Commissioning Board, the outcomes frameworks for the grocery industry, local commissioning bodies and others will all be used to help reduce food inequalities.
"Independent, expert grocery advice is needed at every level of the system. All local authorities and public food and grocery bodies must cooperate to improve the delivery of groceries.
"Mr Speaker, these changes will deliver the modern, dynamic grocery industry we all want, and will lead to a better-fed country. I commend them to the House."

We decided on a cottage near "Danebu" in Norway, where Jørgen was taught skiing when he was Daniel's age.
To avoid driving the long distance we had booked a cabin on the "Cruise Ship" Pearl of Scandinavia from Copenhagen to Oslo with departure at 17:00.
Cabin in "Pearl of Scandinavia"
Upon arrival to Oslo we went to have breakfast with Jørgen's Mother and Sister in Bekkestua west of Oslo.
<<< Family Brems Cross Country Skiing.
Daniel was Cross Country skiing for the very first time and did well.
A perfect week in Norway was celebrated with a lunch at Jorgen's Mother and her husband Nils' house. Jorgen's brother Halvor brought exciting gifts for the kids.
These came to good use on the boat trip back to Copenhagen.
The traditional "Family sitting on the stairs" picture (a natural place for a family to sit !) was taken by Nils, who had been a great help in getting appropriate skiing equipment to Michael and Daniel.

Christian Petzold est un réalisateur allemand, né le 14 septembre 1960 à Hilden.

Biographie
Après avoir fait son service civil dans un ciné-club de Rhénanie , il finit ses études (lettres et théâtre) à Berlin. Diplômé de l'Académie allemande du film et de la télévision de Berlin (DFFB) où il est l'élève de Harun Farocki et de Harmut Bitomsky, il devient ensuite assistant à la réalisation puis réalisateur.

De 1988 à 1994, il tourne au cours de ses études de cinéma divers courts métrages et collabore à d'autres films, notamment ceux réalisés par Harun Farocki, Harmut Bitomsky et Thomas Arslan. Son film de sortie d'école en 1994 est le téléfilm Pilotes, coproduit par la société de production Schramm Films avec laquelle Petzold collabore depuis cette date. Il réalise ensuite deux autres téléfilms policiers  Cuba Libre (1996) et  Die Beischlafdiebin (1998). C'est en 2000 qu'il réalise son premier long-métrage sorti en salles : Contrôle d'identité (Die Innere Sicherheit) dont il signe également le scénario.

Ce film fera de Christian Petzold l'un des chefs de file de la "nouvelle vague" du cinéma allemand (et notamment de ce qu'on a appelé l'"école de Berlin") et lui permettra d'être, par la suite, fréquemment, sélectionné en compétition au Festival de Berlin et au Festival de Venise.

Il est élu membre de l'Académie des arts de Berlin en 2009.

Judy and Joyce are sisters. As sisters often do, they share many things, including a history rich with common experiences from childhood and adolescence. It is not surprising that certain topics stir intense emotions in both women, even if for very different reasons. One such topic is Judy's recovery from mental illness.

Amelia, OH—Judy and Joyce are sisters. As sisters often do, they share many things, including a history rich with common experiences from childhood and adolescence. Thus, the threads of each woman's unique perspective interweave to form the fabric of their special relationship. They have a strong connection: their voices have a similar cadence and tone; they have private jokes; they have common stories; they finish each other's sentences. What affects one sister, by virtue of this bond, affects the other. Therefore, it is not surprising that certain topics stir intense emotions in both women, even if for very different reasons. One such topic is Judy's recovery from mental illness.
Today, their interaction seems so natural and effortless; yet, there was a time when these sisters did not communicate very well. Ten years ago, severe symptoms of depression and side effects of medication forced Judy to spend her days mostly sleeping, watching T.V., and smoking cigarettes. She could not muster the motivation to do much else. It was a life to which she had grown accustomed. Her symptoms were so debilitating that she had been hospitalized in a psychiatric unit every year for eight years. She was living with her mother and her aunt, had never lived alone, and had not worked in 20 years.
These were difficult days for Joyce as well, because it was hard for her to watch Judy suffer from such extreme depression. She hoped for change and would often say and do things in an effort to improve her sister's mood—to cheer her up.
Joyce is the Director of Vocational Services at Clermont Counseling Center, a mental health service provider in Clermont County, Ohio. She remembers 1989. Judy announced that she wanted to move to the county to be closer to her sister, her mother, and the Center, where she planned to acquire mental health services. At first, Joyce had mixed emotions about this idea. As a family member, she was afraid that her sister's proximity would require her to provide more care and, thus, exhaust her already dwindling energy to cope with her sister's severe mental illness. Yet, as a supported-employment specialist and mental health provider, Joyce was hopeful because she knew that with the right support her sister could make significant progress in her recovery.
Eventually, Judy made the move to Clermont County, and the years between 1989 and 2002 were a turning point for her. More accurately, though, this was a turning period, because the turning point in her recovery was actually more than a decade in the making. Once she began to make use of the services at the Counseling Center, Judy began to believe she could get better.
Today, Judy lives independently in her own apartment. She has been working part time in a competitive job in a local restaurant for over four years. With this independence she has become more than just a sister who needs care. She is, once again, a friend and companion. In fact, Judy and Joyce take vacations together whenever possible.
Of course, Joyce is among those who have surrounded Judy to support her recovery. However, many other people have played a part in her transformation, including a treatment team that helped her learn about medications and provided direction and encouragement about other treatments, including employment.
In addition, the housing staff at the Counseling Center helped Judy secure her first apartment. A recovery coordinator, also known as a case manager, was a vital link between Judy and the community resources she needed to become independent. Also, at times, the crisis team has intervened with support. According to Judy, even the office support staff has had an important role in her recovery, because they always treat her with kindness and respect.
Returning to work was a major achievement. After being unemployed for 20 years, Judy had many reservations about finding a job. The vocational services team at the Counseling Center helped her overcome these uncertainties by connecting her with the Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation (BVR), which paid for job-placement services and ongoing job coaching that was provided by the Center's Work Initiative Network (WIN) Vocational Service Team. Today, Judy is no longer the woman who stays home "frozen by the mask of medication." She is more animated, more lively.
Judy quickly adds, "Now, I spring out of bed ready for work every day. Joyce takes more naps than I do!" The sisters laugh. They find humor in this quip. They find humor in its truth.
Through the efforts of many, Judy has gained and sustained an independence and resilience she has not known before. She has remained out of the hospital, even as she has experienced three devastating losses—the deaths of her mother, aunt, and another sister. Judy attributes much of her current stability to her job and the continuous follow-along services she receives from the Clermont Counseling Center.
Every two weeks, someone from the vocational staff at the Center visits Judy at her job to discuss how things are going. They enlist the assistance of a job coach from time to time as Judy acquires new responsibilities.
Judy sometimes experiences challenges both on and off the job, but Joyce does not have to worry every day about how her sister is going to handle these situations. She explains that the staff at the Counseling Center pulls out the "safety net" when Judy needs a little extra help. The security of the services gives both Joyce and Judy peace of mind and the confidence to embrace the future without fear.
