8、2009 is the year of what? Yes, it is the year of the Ox. But do you know that 2009 is also the year of the telescope? This year the world celebrates the 400^th anniversary of Galileo Galilei’s observations of the universe through an astronomical telescope. In 1609, the Italian scientist first pointed a “Dutch perspective glass” at the night sky and made discoveries that changed mankind’s conceptions of universe.

In honor of Galileo’s discoveries, the United and the I International Astronomical Union have declared 2009 to be the Inter national year of Astronomy (IYA2009)

IYA2009 is a yearlong celebration of astronomy. Its goal is to spread knowledge of astronomy’s contributions to society and culture and to inspire more interest in astronomy and science, especially among young people. The theme of the celebration is “The Universe, to Discover.”

One interesting objective of the IYA is to encourage more diversity in the field of astronomy and physics. IYAS organizers hope that the yearlong celebration of astronomy will inspire more females and underrepresented minorities to purse careers in science. An event that will help further that goal is 100 Hours of Astronomy (100HA) that will fall on April. This event aims to have as many people as possible look through a telescope. From April 2^nd to 5^th, millions of people worldwide will peer through telescopes to catch their first glimpse of the universe, just as Galileo did 40 years ago. Sidewalk astronomy events will give city-people an excellent opportunity to see the moon, the planet Saturn, and other objects in position for early evening observations.

Organizers hope that the activities of IYAA will “promote a greater appreciation of the astronomy.” So join the fun. Look through a telescope this year!

7、When you were looking for a reliable, honest auto mechanize, how did you find him? Before you went into that restaurant you recently tried, how did you know that it served great good? If you are like most people on the planet, you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to refer to a business they trust. Marketers call this friend-to friend recognition of business “word-of mouth advertising.

When you do a treat job for your customer for a band job, people are going to talk about your business. Unfortunately, because we humans seem to feel negative emotions more intensively than positive ones, there’re more likely to tell more of our friends about bad experiences with busyness than positive ones. Understand this: customer believes their own experience. You can’t make them believed that your company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly.

So, to get positive word-of-mouth going for your business in this service- based economy, you’ve got to do a really outstanding job for everyone, exactly.

And when you do, you build a great reputation. That takes time. But it forms a close link with your customers in a way that no advertising and no promotional coupon ever could.

The good news is that because there are so many different businesses chasing after your customers’ money, people want to know whom they can trust. So people are going to be talking about you. Create a free sales force for your business an army of delighted customers who tell everyone that they know how good your company is to do business with. That’s great antidote to defectionitis.
