As part of an SEUPB Peace III funded programme 'Trade Unions in Post Conflict Societies' led by ICTU in partnership with Trademark we have designed a course entitled Continuing Professional Development Certificate in Social Justice – Trade Unions and Social Justice. This new development is designed to offer an accredited course designed to reconnect activists to trade union fundamentals in the context of an economy and society in transition. The course will be delivered by a combination of experienced trade union tutors and academics from the UCD School of Social Justice.
What accreditation does the course offer?
It is a 10 credit course at Level 8 of the National Qualification Framework and can be taken as the sole element of a Certificate of Continuing Professional Development.
How is the course delivered?
The course is delivered through a blended learning methodology based on UCD's dedicated Blackboard website which facilitates student communications and provides full course information and full course materials. In addition there are 5 teaching days between UCD, Trademark Belfast, Mandate Training Centre and one residential.
What will the focus of the course be?
- Exploring the ideological, political and legal dimensions of trade unionism;
- Understanding political theories of equality including equality of opportunity, equality of outcome and intersectionality;
- An exploration of 'political economy' that sees economic ideas not as science but as ideological positions that must themselves be explained;
- An overview of the role of trade unions in societies in transition;
- Trade Union in praxis – practical projects addressing current trade union issues, organising in the 21st centry, 'community' trade unionism.

OHMYGOSSIP — Kit Harington "broke down" when filming wrapped on 'Game of Thrones'.
The 32-year-old star – who plays Jon Snow in the HBO fantasy series – admits it was emotional when he bid goodbye to the famous character.
He said: "My final day of shooting, I felt fine … I felt fine … I felt fine … then I went to do my last shots and started hyperventilating a bit. Then they called 'Wrap!' and I just f***ing broke down. It was this onslaught of relief and grief about not being able to do this again. It wasn't so much about Jon. It was about not being in this world, not getting to smell those smells, fight those fights, be with these people – the whole package."
And Kit felt like he was being "skinned" when he took off the costume for the last time.
He added to Esquire magazine: "But the weirdest bit was when we came off set and they started taking the costume off and it felt like being skinned. It felt like they were unceremoniously, for the last time, ripping off this character."
Kit had previously revealed the final season of 'Game of Thrones' will be "sensational".
He shared: "It was exhausting. It was nine months … usually we film over six months for 10 episodes, and we filmed over nine months for six episodes. But these six episodes I think are going to change the way you look at TV. They're going to be sensational, they're huge. We did everything … the one thing I feel right now is that we put everything we could into this. So we're just proud of it now."

Pardon the pun but I will wax lyrical concerning the best scented candles there are to purchase. I shopped around and Yankee products do result in the best scented candles. Besides for his or her scented candles they create fantastic votive candles. They've competitors for example Colonial Candles, who are actually excellent candles, but nonetheless don't hold a match to Yankee. Want to know more about candle container manufacturer? Visit our website and check out the best collection of candles online.
These candles appear to last and last. I put a celebration lately that continued before the early hrs. I lit a few Yankee candles round the outdoors entertainment place to counter the smokers' odour. I had been so surprised in early hrs from the morning to uncover that they are alight but still the best scented candles.
Yankee candle is probably the largest candle store in worldwide because they have outlets in virtually every country on the planet. They create the best scented candles because they are thorough within their research regarding how to boost the aroma and the way to conserve a lasting scent. The foundation of Yankee's best scented candles is really a heart warming story. Mike Kitteridge was without any money to purchase his Mother a Christmas present so he earned her a candle from some wax crayons, his neighbour loved the candle a lot that they got it from him. He bought more wax using the money to create his Mom's present and so that you can make an additional someone to sell.
Yankee Candles wholesale continues to be designed to help companies sell their very own candles. They provide the possibility entrepreneur a lot of reasons to think about partnering with Yankee Candle because they not just possess the best scented candles but they are constantly picking out new perfumes for his or her candles. As being a large and professional company they offer exceptional support because they have experience.
I'm a bit stingy and that i tend not to buy anything unless of course I'm able to have it in a good cost. I had been very glad to discover will be able to get discount Yankee candles with Yankee candle coupons and through Yankee candle clearance. Many sites offer coupons for Yankee Candles enabling you to obtain the best scented candles in a cost that you could afford. Yankee possess a semi-annual clearance purchase and that's after i buy my best scented products. For more information on scented candles online, visit our website today!
My best friend was very astonished when she found visit me lately she's always known as me "cheap". I usually illuminate some candles after i am expecting visitors. She desired to determine if somebody had bought me candles like a present, because she was believing that the best scented wax candles she'd ever experienced needed to be costly.

Using Channels 17/18 (AUX) for break music
My band did its first live show with our own system the other night. I tried to play break music and was only getting half of any tune I tried to play through an iOS app.
What I tried to use was a Logictech BT Adapter with 2 RCA jacks which I plugged into it a dual RCA to a single 1/4" jack cord, plugged this into 17 or 18 and only got 1/2 of the song.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to turn off Stereo on those jacks from the X-AIR side?

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia used stocks held in tanks at its oilfields to help boost crude production in June, three industry sources told Reuters, in a sign of supply flexibility as OPEC kingpin Saudi Arabia pushes other major producers to increase spare output capacity.
Russian oil production last month rose by around 100,000 barrels per day from May. From July 1-15, the country's average oil output was 11.215 million bpd, an increase of 245,000 bpd from May, two industry sources said. <O/RUS1>
Saudi Arabia increased its oil output by 458,000 bpd in June from May, pumping an average of 10.488 million bpd and selling even more, with some of that supply coming from storage, OPEC sources told Reuters.
The difference between the two countries' numbers lies in the scale and sustainability of the increase: thanks to the geological structure of Saudi fields, state-run producer Saudi Aramco can quickly add and cut supply.
Such adjustments are harder to perform in Russia, where oilfields and production equipment in Siberia, for example, are beset by freezing temperatures. But the country does have some flexibility thanks to spare capacity in the Transneft pipeline system and in oil tanks at fields, sources say.
Oil production "has restarted so quickly thanks to stocks in reservoirs (tanks) in western Siberia. They belong both to Transneft and to the oil companies," a senior oil executive told Reuters.
Another oilman and an industry source confirmed that Russian oil companies had boosted production partially thanks to their stocks. They did not say how much of June's 100,000-bpd increase came from stocks.
According to the sources and an analyst, Russia has around 200,000 bpd in spare capacity that can be used to stock oil.
Last month, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other producers led by Russia agreed to ease global output cuts, adding around 1 million bpd to the market from July 1.
Of that increase, Moscow promised to contribute 200,000 bpd. Under an agreement that took effect at the start of 2017, Russia's initial cut was 300,000 bpd.
In May, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said he was concerned about possible shortages of spare crude output capacity. "We certainly don't feel we are where we need to be with complete market stability," Falih said.
To view a graphic on Russia, Saudi Arabia Oil Production 2018 png, click: tmsnrt.rs/2L6ck2a
Transneft's system can hold around 16 million tonnes of stocks, equal to about 11 days of Russian crude production, according to the state-controlled pipeline monopoly.
But much of that capacity is needed for pumping and mixing different types of crude, sources say, estimating that only a third can be used for stockpiling oil.
Igor Dyomin, an adviser to Transneft's president, said in emailed comments to Reuters that the company's inventory capacity was not used for long-term oil storage.
"The inventories capacity of Transneft is not used for long-term storage of oil, including from the oil companies. It is a part of the system which ensures the technological process of seamless oil and oil products transportation from the producers to the consumers," he said.
"For the past three years these volumes have been alternating insignificantly on a monthly basis and are not related to the production curbs within the deal with OPEC," Dyomin said.
Another two industry sources said Russian oil firms combined had storage facilities with a capacity of around 17 million tonnes located at their fields. These facilities house the mixture of mostly water and oil that producers extract from the ground.
Given that many oilfields in western Siberia have significant water content, such storage can stockpile 3-4 million tonnes of pure crude oil, according to estimates by Mikhail Sheybe, an analyst with Sberbank CIB.
This brings total spare capacity to as much as 10 million tonnes of oil, equal to 200,000 bpd. In June, Russian average oil output exceeded 11 million bpd for the first time since April 2017.
Saudi Arabia, by its own estimates, has 2 million bpd of spare capacity that could be deployed to help compensate for falling output in Venezuela and Iran.
One source said Russia's oil storage was overloaded by the time Moscow negotiated an easing of global production cuts with Saudi Arabia and other crude-producing nations.
"The covers (on tanks) had been torn off at many (oil production sites)," that source said.
Not all of the increase in Russian supply came from storage, as oil companies were ramping up production following the easing of output curbs, the sources said. They did not provide a breakdown or identify the companies.
According to analysts, top Russian oil producer Rosneft was believed to be able to restore 70,000 bpd of output in just two days. Gazprom Neft promised half of that.
Lukoil, Russia's second-biggest oil producer, has increased output by 29,000 bpd, Chief Executive Vagit Alekperov said on Wednesday, thanks to what he said was the restart of previously suspended wells.
Russia's Rosneft, Gazprom Neft, Lukoil and the Energy Ministry did not immediately reply to Reuters requests for comment.

Dear Friend,
3 Reasons You Need to Smile While Running -- is this month's newsletter. We hope it helps you enjoy running more and experience less injuries!
If you find this information helpful and think it may help others run injury free, please be kind and share it!
Why is it important to smile while running? It is such a simple act -- to smile. It is free, easy to do and we can choose to do it whenever we want. Buy why should we do it while running?
First of all, and perhaps least important, is that it makes us look good and look happy. Who would argue that a non-smiling face looks better than a smiling face? It is our best feature so we should make good use of it.
We want to look good when we run. That's why we buy the colourful, sleek athletic clothing and shoes! And when we look happy while running, we are showing the world that running makes us feel good and it may actually help encourage others to start running too!
Secondly, we need to smile while running because it relaxes our body. When our body is relaxed and less tense, it is easier to move so we are much less likely to develop an injury. What a bonus!
"We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do."
- Mother Teresa
The third, and perhaps the most beneficial reason we need to smile while running, is because it releases endorphins--instantly making us feel happier and making running feel easier.
It has the same effect as what is known as runners' high -- a natural high also caused by the release of endorphins. In this state, runners have reported feelings of unlimited strength, joy, peacefulness, contentment and elation while running.
So please, always try to smile while you are running. It will be well worth the effort. Even if you don't feel like it, force a gentle smile anyway. It will help you to feel more like smiling :)
So there you have it, 3 reasons you need to smile while running: to look good, to avoid injuries and to make running feel easier; and all this for free whenever we choose to do so.
It sounds too good to be true, so don't take my word for it. Try it for yourself. You will notice the difference immediately. A gentle, little upward curve of the lips can make such a tremendous difference in how you experience running. Give it a try and come back here and tell us all about it.
Please feel free to post any comments or suggestions below.
Until next month, be happy, healthy and keep running!
With love and blessings,
Jackie ♥

A Berkeley County nurse practitioner faces a slew of charges in Georgia for her alleged role in a Medicaid fraud scheme that authorities described as "an organized web of abuse" of elderly and disabled adults.
Cynthia Riley, 51, is charged in a 17-count indictment announced Tuesday by the Georgia Attorney General's Office. She was arrested Thursday and remained in the Berkeley County jail as of Tuesday night. Address records indicate she lives in Moncks Corner.
Riley and two co-defendants — Michelle Oliver, 39, and Harold Hunt, 56 — are charged with racketeering, neglect of a disabled adult or elderly person, and exploitation.
Riley had worked at the Berkeley Community Mental Health Center on a contractual basis from October 2016 until her arrest Thursday, according to Tracy LaPointe, spokeswoman for the S.C. Department of Mental Health. LaPointe said DMH ran a licensing and background check before contracting with Riley, who does not have a prior criminal history in South Carolina.
Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr said Riley allegedly gave psychotropic medications and other prescriptions to patients transported to her by Oliver, who is accused of running an unlicensed personal care home called Miracle One Care Center in Albany, Georgia.
"The residents reported they did not receive any other psychological or medical care," a news release from Carr's office said.
Authorities have also accused Riley of providing Oliver and Hunt with medical forms to sign the care center's residents up for government benefits. Oliver and Hunt allegedly pocketed the funds.
Carr said Hunt acted as the social security payee, in which he helped residents obtain Social Security benefits but sent the money to Oliver and kept some for himself.
Authorities launched a multi-agency investigation into the trio after residents reported that people living in Oliver's apartments were "begging for food."

10 outrageously unique wedding theme ideas! You be the judge!! 😀💖 I like the Hello Kitty theme 😊
I was scrolling through Instagram and found these amazing cake table backdrops by @AllintheDetail16

Here is a closer look at the beautiful paper flowers:
Rustic summer wedding ideas:
For November I wanted to try re-creating the wedding from the November Rain video. November Rain is the best rock video of all time featuring one of the best guitar solos of all time. This is one of my favorite songs.
I'm starting with the wedding gown. I searched all over and could not find a high-low wedding dress with puffy sleeves. I did however, find this cap sleeve dress, which I think makes a perfect substitute. It features the same high low style with a sweetheart neckline.
Dazzling Floral Cap Sleeve Wedding Dress
I love the back of this gown, and the floral sleeves. The sleeves can always be altered, or just worn off the shoulder to create the same look the bride has on the video.
I found a wedding veil with a bow on it. It can be worn on the top of the head to create the same look as the image below.
I can't really see the earrings well, but I think these beautiful vintage dangle earrings are a perfect fit for this look.
The bride's bouquet is elegant, simple and not overdone. Jenny's Flower Shop on Etsy has a pretty Calla Lily Bouquet made with artificial flowers. Global Rose has a fresh flower bouquet with Calla Lilies and Roses. I like them both.
The Maid of Honor in the video is wearing a tight, red dress, closely fitted to the body. However, I don't want my maid of honor wearing anything that sexy. Red stands out a lot on it's own. So, this red dress gives you a similar look, but it's not as sexy as the dress in the video. It's not as tight, and it's a deeper red.
Bridesmaid Dress with Sweetheart Neck and Spaghetti Straps
The flower girl's dress, I found, is very difficult to find. I was looking for a princess dress with puff sleeves, high sash, see through mesh and a mock neck. I couldn't find it. I think this is a dress you would have to get made. Fox Gown has a wide variety of classic flower girl dresses. Here are two dresses with sashes, one with cap sleeves. The sashes comes in different colors.To recreate the video look, we would go with white.
For the groom I found this!
Amazing right? This is on Deviant Art of all places. It was posted by Oruntia.
Okay, so here is where I put it all together:
The wedding cake is from Three Brother's Bakery in Houston
The Garter is from Garter Lady's shop on Etsy.
This is a theme that I wasn't so sure about, but even though these are Halloween colors it actually came out really nice.

Vintage weddings are extremely popular right now. You can find a host of websites that not only sell vintage gowns and accessories, but also give advice on creating the ultimate vintage wedding.
To look for inspiration, I find it extremely helpful to look up the weddings of actresses from the 1950s and 1960s. Audrey Hepburn, Diahann Carroll, Catherine Deneuve, Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren and Bridget Bardot all had amazing style. Just looking at their old photos can give you inspiration.
Etsy is one of my favorite places for Vintage accessories and gowns. There are so many beautiful pieces. Here are a few that I really like:
I absolutely love this gown. I like the lace, and the length. I think it's a very classy and elegant bridal look.
This is another lace wedding dress that I like. I love the back. The tiers are really pretty and add a nice touch to this already lovely gown.
This is my favorite dress right now 🙂 It's just gorgeous! I love the sheer sleeves, and chiffon overlay. It has a sweetheart neckline and a silk satin waistline. Check out Dainty Rascal's page on Etsy to see more photos of this gown. It really is beautiful, (link below).

Wedding season is upon us, and the team at Magic Function Hire is biting at the bit to assist brides in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga and further afield to put together their dream weddings. As décor rental experts, we like to stay in the know regarding the latest wedding trends, and we are very excited for the season and year ahead – there are so many fun things happening!
Here are a few of our favourite summer wedding decor trends for 2017/8:
Architectural Inspiration
This season's most interesting trend takes inspiration from the world of architecture. Marble, copper and concrete are no longer just finishes in modern homes and places of business – it's making its way onto wedding reception tables as well. White and light grey marble paired with copper or gold cutlery makes for a statement place setting that is infinitely Instagram-able. Add a few heavy concrete containers to the mix as flower receptacles, and you've ticked all the boxes.
Bold Local Blooms
Step aside roses and daffodils, local blooms is where it's at this season! Proteas, birds of paradise, pincushion proteas and succulents of all sorts are in fashion in a big way. These add a wonderful textural touch to floral centrepieces and bouquets. TOP TIP: If you do use local fynbos in your floral displays, make sure to source it from an ethical provider who harvests it in an environmentally-conscious manner. The Cape Floral Kingdom is a delicate ecosystem that should be protected and nurtured at all costs.
Textural Juxtaposition
Textural juxtaposition is also rather huge this season. Pair delicate cut-glass flower containers with rock roses, or fill big, carved wooden containers with delicate heather-like blooms – the bigger the contrast, the greater the effect.
Small Spaces Within Large Spaces
Another big décor trend at the moment is the creation of smaller, cosy spaces within your reception area. If you're hosting a big wedding in a large, double-volume venue, guests can often feel a little lost spatially. Create little cosy nooks where they can gather to interact by organising couches, occasional stables and stools at regular intervals throughout the space – this way, your guests will have convenient places to assemble when they want a break from dancing, or just to chat.
These are just a few of the wonderful trends that have been cropping up for the season ahead. Get in touch with the Magic Function Hire team of wedding décor rental specialists to get the ball rolling on your big day – we're here to assist you in any way we can, and we look forward to making your dream wedding a splendid reality.

TAP M&E Paris Air Show 2011June 26th, 2011 by NearInteraction
NearInteraction was part of the 49th International Paris Air Show 2011 held at the Le Bourget Airport at the end of June, with a series of interactive installations revealing the services offered by TAP Maintenance and Engineering (TAP M&E). NearInteraction was responsible for an eye-catching gesture based interactive wall, comprised of 4 large scale high-res screens where visitors were able to manipulate the inner workings of an aeroplane by using their arms, and an all inclusive iPad app of TAP M&E facts and figures which connected in real-time to the interactive wall, displaying any content that was being browsed at that moment.
At an event that brings together more than 2100 exhibitors from 45 countries, it is an important consideration to stand out from the crowd, a consideration achieved by NearInteraction with an interactive LED installation embedded into the booth's specially designed awnings, featuring RGB light that was able to respond to both presence and movement with beautiful dynamical transitions of color as attendees passed by.
Love, love is in your hands…February 24th, 2011 by NearInteraction
If you are passing by the Lisbon Colombo Fnac concept store, check out NearInteraction's ode to love on the way in, displayed in a giant 50″ inch screen. For the interactive piece, NearInteraction moved beyond gestural 2D into 3D, using the recently released Kinect infrared camera. Not only does this innovation allow tracking of more than one hand as well as depth of field producing a more sensorial environment for the user, it also has simultaneous multi-user use. The installation was navigated gesturally using both hands, creating a simple yet eye-catching Valentines promotion that many couples stopped to interact with before moving into the store.
NearInteraction partners with the Ministry of Culture leading the future…September 30th, 2010 by NearInteraction
This September saw NearInteraction showcasing several technological pieces on behalf of the Ministry of Culture of Portugal at the technology fair "Portugal Tecnológico 2010″, the nation's largest technology and innovation show, held at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa (FIL) exhibition centre.
Welcoming in the new wave…
Using a gesturally guided installation to showcase MatrizPix, an information system responsible for the management of images and archives of the Instituto dos Museus e da Conservação, was NearInteraction's first choice to relay a physical exploring experience to the viewer whilst browsing the archive of digitalised files.
Posting the freedom of artistic creation…
Highlighting the works produced by the arts residencies represented by DGARTES, (a Direcção-Geral das Artes) NearInteraction's object recognition installation reveals documentary style videos activated by postcards held up to the monitor.
Keeping touch with history…
NearInteraction created a multi-layered multi-touch table visually showcasing the processes that are represented by DGARQ, (a Direcção Geral de Arquivos) the coordinating body of the national archives which overlooks in all forms and mediums of archiving throughout the country. Focused on areas such as network and file systems, the safeguarding of assets, classifications, preservation of documents and the dissemination of information, this particular multi-touch table focused on the Torre de Tombo site.
By making use of interactive technology to relay a virtual experience to all the various aspects represented by the Ministry of Culture, NearInteraction's portfolio of works exhibited at FIL, were accessible to both professionals and the public at large, allowing the Ministry of Culture to play a memorable part.

Winter Color Trends 2015/201608 December 2015
If you have been considering home makeover, take inspiration from seasonal changes to use as your color palette. Crisp, warm orange foliage and sharp, stunning cranberries provide a beautiful backdrop and design encouragement. Paint colors inspired by the Fall and Winter seasons will last a long time and go well with practically any décor.
Benjamin Moore says that several color combinations inspired by the colder seasons are popular with interior designers this year. Mustard yellows and deep browns are paired with icy cream tones, and pear greens are matched with charcoal grays. Brick red and cranberry shades go well when paired with Benjamin Moore's Soft Chamois(a beautiful creamy beige) and Almost Black.
Stormy looks are popular in paint right now: gray blue, slate gray, wheat beige and silvery whites. Cayenne pepper and cantaloupe go surprisingly well with deep mulled wines and chocolate paint tones. Light turquoise and dark navy shades are now being put together with beeswax yellows and wheat shades.
For 2016, coral and pink are on the trend horizon, along with deep bronze and sea foam greens. Plum is still forecast to be big color in interior design next year, with a focus on grayish, dark purples. Now is the time for exploration with paint colors, both exterior and interior, so do not be afraid to take chances. Your walls make a huge difference in the overall design of your home, so pick colors that you really love, and we will do the rest.

Midlands Spotlight - Impious from George McCluskey
By midlandsmovies, May 2 2017 08:27AM
Editor Mike Sales spotlights the latest feature from Midlands filmmaker George McCluskey who discusses his new drama-horror project called Impious.
Hailing from Coventry, George McCluskey is a writer, director and actor and with his new feature Impious, he is taking on a horror idea he's had brewing for some years. Based around the theme of possession, George has mixed both horror elements with a more real-life drama focused around Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
George has self-financed the project with a budget that has so far gone into five figures and he has a history in the horror genre where he also co-wrote, and was lead actor in, the British Independent comedy horror feature film "The Zombie King". This 2013 fright flick starred Hollywood actors Edward Furlong and Corey Feldman. He was also Executive Producer and acted in British Independent horror feature film "Jacobs Hammer" during in the same year.
This new story however is based around a suspected possession. George goes on to explain, "That it is suspected because a priest feels this to be the case whereas the psychiatrist in the film is having none of it".
With both men friends of the family, the "possessed" man, Tim Baxter, is already suffering from PTSD which itself creates a difficulty as the audience does not know who to actually believe in the story.
George continues, "His long suffering wife Elaine, and step-daughter Mindy, have persevered with his behaviour for years, so when we join the story they are already a family in crisis, but this recent spate of erratic behaviour has taken their situation to a new level".
"What we get then is a family in turmoil, a psychiatrist who refuses to see anything but what he is trained to see, and a priest who fears evil can be more powerful than good", summarises George.
The project began on the very first day of 2016 with George saying that, "I wrote the script in January and had just over 16 days to shoot the film in Spring. And I hope to release the film in Summer 2017".
As Tim refuses to eat, his health diminishing badly, and a spate of biazarre and horrific events happening in the house, all the protagonists end up in a race against time to banish whatever it is that has "gripped" Tim before the situation eventually destroys them all. "The theme for this story is demonic possession but the film is also a thriller and a drama. Inspirations for this film are definitely The Exorcist", Says George.
The film stars many great actors, most of whom are Midlands-based, including Greg Hobbs, Diane Ellis, Jade Callender, Nick Sheard, Ian Brooker and of course George McCluskey himself.

We all love a bit of nostalgia, even if nostalgia was way better in the old days. It's like we spend our lives living in a retro bubble, using a hot tub time machine to recall simpler times and bittersweet childhood memories.
We're obsessed with "Remember when…" conversations, the TV shows we watched as kids and the ubiquitous 90's listicle. You know the sort - "21 things you remember from the 90s because these endless bloody lists won't let you forget them."
Nostalgia marketing is everywhere. Just take a look at what's showing in your local cinema. This month alone saw the release of sequels to Star Trek, Finding Nemo, Ice Age, Now You See Me and The Bourne Identity along with reboots of Ghostbusters, The BFG and Tarzan.
It's unsurprising that seven of the top ten highest-grossing films of all time are sequels, prequels or spin-offs. Dare we even mention the Pokemon Go juggernaut!
Nostalgia's not new and it's not going anywhere. So how can content marketers harness it and what are the potential benefits?
1. Nostalgia is a powerful marketing weapon
Swiss physician Johannes Hofer first coined the term "nostalgia" to describe what he saw as a mental illness in homesick Swiss mercenaries. He blamed it on the "vibrations of spirit animals" in the brain, which sounds like a side effect of playing too much Pokemon Go.
Scientific America says that "by allowing people to revisit cherished life experiences, nostalgia boosts positive self-regard and promotes the feeling that life is full of meaning and purpose." It's sentimental, emotional and seductive – that's a powerful combination to tap into when marketing your product or brand.
It's like an emotional comfort blanket. Nostalgia makes people happy so brands want to access that feel good buzz. When they get it right, they help people to relive their youth and create a positive brand association.
The book "Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die" highlights six elements that make content memorable. They say great content should be simple, unexpected, concrete, credible, emotional, and story-generating (SUCCESs) so nostalgic content can make your output "stickier." Jonah Berger's studies on viral content also found that the most shareable stuff tends to be highly emotional.
So if nostalgia is highly emotional and highly emotional content has viral potential, it's a pretty useful weapon to have in your marketing arsenal.
2. Pair nostalgia and social media
If nostalgia's a bullet, then social media's the gun. It's a perfect delivery system. What use is a blast from the past if you can't tag your friends or share a link so they can wallow in that feeling with you?
#TBT (Throwback Thursday) and #FBF (Flashback Friday) are used by brands to showcase their former glories, establish brand legacy and stir up old memories. It's a simple way to harvest likes, shares and engagement.
Timehop and Facebook's "On This Day" feature also feed this appetite for old or (relatively recent!) memories. This rapid turnaround time for modern nostalgia has been described as "early-onset nostalgia" and Generation Y are the most affected by this phenomenon.
Millennials are raging nostalgia fiends and they're all locked into various social media channels. If that's not a good enough incentive to incorporate nostalgia in your marketing, then what is?
Well, the proven impact of emotional advertising, for one. 71% of buyers are willing to buy a product if it appeals to them on a personal level. Cha-ching!
That's a pretty good reason to get your audience feeling all emotional with some old school memories. And social media is the obvious way to amplify this content.
3. Tap into brand history
Sony's "4 the players since 1995" video from 2013 is a great example of balancing brand positioning and nostalgia. It cleverly exploited people's memories of playing Playstation for almost 20 years.
"Remember all the good times we had together?" they seem to say. "We can create new memories together if you just buy a new Playstation 4."
Radioshack also played the nostalgia card in their 2014 Superbowl ad. It let their target audience relive the 80s, reminded them that Radioshack was a consistent brand in their life but also delivered a relevant rebranding message. It worked and their stock even rose by 7% immediately after the ad aired.
Several reactive brands jumped on the bandwagon when the hashtag #InThe90sIThought started trending. Brands like Polaroid, Paramount Movies and Keds all made a play to tap into this Millennial nostalgia-fest. So it pays to keep a track of what's happening organically and to capitalise on a wider trend if you can.

4. Reboot, reuse, recycle
Two of this year's biggest films were reboots of much-loved franchises. Creed and Star Wars: The Force Awakens were both huge successes, even if they basically remade the original films with a few new faces. You'd be forgiven for thinking that there's a tax on originality…
Remakes, reboots, sequels, prequels and spin-offs are all a safe way to make a new film that comes with an established fanbase and name recognition. They're easier to market because the groundwork has already been done. It can also drive viewers back to the source material, which is a pretty good way to recycle older content.
The state of the top ten shows that Hollywood knows what it's doing despite the protests of purists. It's also no coincidence that the likes of Nike and Adidas keep releasing retro lines of sneakers from the 70s, 80s and 90s.
Applying a similar approach to content means you too can piggyback on earlier successes. Reusing successful content pieces or doing follow-ups is one way to squeeze the most out of your best assets. You can break a successful infographic up into bite-sized chunks that can be used on your social channels. It's a simple way to repurpose your assets.
Reboot your old blogs by converting them into tips, newsletters, or a white paper. Why not use a blog as the basis for a video tutorial? Just make sure you use a script, a good camera and decent lighting to avoid producing something that looks like a hostage video!
You can also create your own content sequels using the Hub and Spoke method, which sounds complicated but really isn't. This involves creating one in-depth blog and then doing follow-ups, additions or related pieces that link back to the original. You extend the life of the piece, boost SEO and get some easy content gains by riffing off material that already exists.
Just as reboots or sequels give a successful film a new lease of life, you can reuse your content assets by switching up the format and using a bit of creativity. It's all about squeezing the most from your successful pieces.
5. Don't try to force it
Or, to quote Fall Out Boy circa 2007: 'thnks fr th mmrs, even though they weren't so great'.
The unfortunate truth is that nostalgia marketing is not without its dangers. McDonalds tried to get an easy win on Twitter with #McDStories, which it hoped would encourage people to wax lyrical about their happy McDonalds memories.
Instead, they got horror stories:
#mcdstories I once found a human molar in a chemically separated all white chicken nugget.. No joke!
— Cameron Will (@CameronWill) January 23, 2012
Disgruntled former employees slagging their food:
#McDStories I lost 50lbs in 6 months after I quit working and eating at Mcdonalds
— James King (@JamesMKEArt) January 24, 2012
The inevitable smartarses coming out of the woodwork:
One time I walked into McDonalds and I could smell Type 2 diabetes floating in the air and I threw up.#McDStories
— Skip Sullivan (@SkipSullivan) January 18, 2012
And created something that people are still using as a bashtag after four years:
About that rotten, black lettuce on my last McChicken... #McDStories
— Jürgen (@garymac21) July 22, 2016
It's a powerful warning that this approach can go wrong. Think about the potential pitfalls before diving in!
Be relevant and authentic. Don't just reference a random bit of pop culture and hope for the best. There has to be some link between your brand and the nostalgic memory you're trying to leverage. It's not enough for an accountancy firm to randomly tweet out a picture of Pikachu and say "Pokemon - Am I right!?"
You also need to know your audience and your topic – nostalgia varies greatly from generation to generation and everyone is very proprietorial about their treasured memories. They won't take kindly to a brand stomping all over their childhood as part of a clumsy marketing ploy.
Another important lesson is to consider the cultural and social implications when referencing the past. Sensibilities change and it's probably best to avoid a throwback to some of your old ads if they happen to be full of casual misogyny.
Finally, nostalgia may be a powerful tool for marketers but don't ignore original content. We want to avoid the dystopian future predicted by The Onion in 1997, in which we run out of past to romanticise. If nothing else, someone needs to produce original content for the next generation to get nostalgic about it!
