Miami, FL (PRWEB) December 28, 2011

A November 10th, 2011 jury verdict, awarding $ 1,050,000 to a 30-year-old Florida man savagely beaten at a popular Miami nightclub, wasnt just a victory for the plaintiff and his injury lawyers at Miamis Gerson & Schwartz. It was also a wake-up call that nightclub security measures need to move into the 21st century, says the firms senior partner, Philip M. Gerson — especially with the holiday season upon us.

The holidays are a time for celebration and leisure, and many people in Florida and elsewhere will be heading to clubs and other establishments, expecting not only to have a good time but to be safe, says Gerson, a veteran trial lawyer and advocate for crime victims rights. Unfortunately, too many nightclubs are dropping the ball on security, relying on antiquated methods like the use of poorly trained bouncers. Our case, involving one of Miamis best known, trendiest clubs, shows that even A-list venues can have D-list security. Its time to change that.

In the November case file NO. 15038 CA10 and verdict file NO. 09-58923-CA23 David Millian v. Penrod Brothers Inc., D/B/A NIKKI BEACH Club — Gersons client had been attacked and severely injured at Club Nikki in South Beach. Nikki Beach Club and is a well known South Beach hot spot located on an oceanfront complex featuring an upstairs dance club and downstairs beach club and lounge with cabanas, lounge beds, and two restaurants. Punched in the face by a fellow patron who was holding a glass, the victim suffered deep facial lacerations that required reconstructive surgery — leaving him with significant scarring. During the nearly two-week trial, Gerson successfully argued that the clubs security was woefully inadequate. “Indeed, the attack occurred in what should have been the most protected spot in the establishment, a small area near the restrooms and front entrance” stated Mr. Gerson.

Nor was this an isolated event. Last summer, Gerson & Schwartz obtained another million-dollar award in a security-related case, this time for the family of a victim who wasnt as fortunate. In Roger Hall Sr. as Personal Representative of the Estate of Roger Hall et al., v. Royal Palm Park West, LLC., et al Case No: 0615038 CA-10 Miami Dade Circuit Court. The decedent, Roger Hall Jr., a star high school quarterback was stabbed to death at a large Miami nightclub in the well known Park West night club district in Miami, Florida leaving a 2-year-old son. While the crime has not yet been solved, a Florida jury ordered that the property owner must pay $ 1.7 million in damages.

Ever since 9/11, Americans know that security isnt about an old man asleep on a stool in a bank or grocery store, says Gerson, who has represented injury and crime victims for more than 40 years. Nor should it be a poorly trained bouncer in a club. Security is a science and there needs to be a professional approach. Everyone knows that mixing alcohol and testosterone can be a recipe for confrontation. People have a legal right to be safe from violence whenever they are in a public space. That means property owners and club operators have to undertake precautions commensurate with the inherent risks they foster to earn money.

Such precautions, the veteran injury lawyer says, should include proactive security, where properly trained and supervised personnel carry out careful admission procedures, weapons checks (requiring, in many clubs, metal detectors or pat downs), stringent enforcement of lawful age statutes, and careful observation of customer behavior — identifying those who show signs of intoxication or substance abuse.

Management of aggressive behaviors, or MOAB, is now an accepted part of security science in public places drawing large crowds, says Gerson, who also serves as a board member of the National Center for Victims of Crime, the nation’s leading resource and advocacy organization for crime victims. Protective interventions before potentially dangerous customers lash out are key. This could consist of a warning to friends or even a paid taxi ride home. Its a small price for a nightclub to pay to prevent a disaster on its property — and to prevent great harm to innocent people inside or outside the club.

Security and safety, Gerson notes, is everyones business and requires attention, focus, and effective, well-crafted procedures. Keeping revelers safe, says the injury lawyer, is one New Years resolution that needs to begin before we ring in 2012.

About Gerson & Schwartz P.A.

Founded in 1970 by Miami personal injury lawyer Philip M. Gerson, the law firm of Gerson & Schwartz, P.A., has spent the past four decades protecting, and vindicating, the rights of individuals who have suffered serious harm — from automobile accidents to medical malpractice to cruise ship injuries. In the process, the firm has become recognized as Top Lawyers by the South Florida Business Review, and recognized widely for its work with public interest groups like the International Cruise Victims Association and the National Center for Victims of Crime.

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 19, 2011

Jump Jump Dance Dance is a Los Angeles-based electro-pop band thats fearless in shattering the preconceived notions of musical boundaries. Favored by stylish scenesters, the clubbing masses and festival-goers alike, Jump Jump Dance Dance is more than just a hipsters band. With an irresistible mixture of EDM-infused pop, Jump Jump Dance Dance has carved a definitive path with music-lovers across Australia, and the band continues making waves in the U.S. Leading up to the impending release of their self-titled studio album, Jump Jump Dance Dance releases their second single, Show Me The Night, on December 19th, 2011 in North America. The full-length Jump Jump Dance Dance (Universal Music Australia / Ministry Of Sound Australia) album will be released on January 30th, 2012 in North America.

Show Me The Night is a hook-y, catchy song that pays homage to The Clash’s This Is Radio Clash with guitar riffs evocative of Franz Ferdinand. Said Chris Carter, vocalist and guitarist for Jump Jump Dance Dance, The Clash were one of the greatest punk rock bands of all time and they were surely an influence on me artistically. So to be compared with The Clash is super-awesome and a huge compliment! Adds Jump Jump Dance Dance’s Simon Lewicki, We actually toured with Franz [Ferdinand]theyre fantastic guys and we had loads of fun! Its cool to be able to spend time together on-the-road performing, especially when it means traveling with your mates who have similar tastes in music.

The Radio Edit of Show Me The Night is a booty-shakin paean to a carefree nightlife filled with mystery and possibility. Lewicki is masterful at self-control, giving just enough breathing room for Carter’s flirty, come-hither vocals to dominate. The Grum Remix is a psychedelic, fantastical interpretation of the original, replete with swirly synths and a toe-tapping beat. Human Life’s West Coast Girls Remix is a throwback version that nods affectionately towards the disco era with Carter’s vocal practically rhythmic in its own staccato fashion. The Nick Galea Remix is an absolutely filthy, tribal climax of a song that makes the listener surrender completely to house music urges.

Like their previous single, 2.0 (in particular the Laidback Luke remix), which leaned heavily on synth-pop and a pounding bottom end, Show Me The Night lends itself brilliantly to progressive-house friendly dancefloors. With its spacious architecture, Show Me The Night is a mischievous ode to a long night out where anything is possible. Its a song as well suited for a darkened dancefloor as it is for an outdoor festival, wherever there are strobelights and lasers piercing the fog.

Carter and Lewicki have a DJs sensibility for rocking a party, and they perform as DJs when not touring as a band. With skills gleaned from years of DJing alongside the likes of David Guetta, Franz Ferdinand, Tommie Sunshine and the late DJ AM, Jump Jump Dance Dance (the band) has Carter on guitar and vocals, with Lewicki injecting a heavy dose of synthesizers and programming. A live drummer is also added to the band setup. The result is a high-energy, electro-pop show with a decidedly partylike atmosphere. Show Me The Night is available on Beatport, iTunes, Amazon and all major retailers.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 19, 2011

Armory Survival Gear, a leading Southern California-based street-wear and events company is using Trumpias SMS text marketing solution as part of its cross-channel promotions strategy to boost in-store traffic and attendance at international dance events.

The company routinely orchestrates multi-channel marketing campaigns, whereby it orchestrates its promotions, using SMS marketing and social media sites including Facebook. Besides frequent sales on merchandise, the business also hosts dance party style events locally like the weekly, Thursday night Generations party and multiple break dance (Bboy) contests and events monthly such as Freestyle Session, which is held around the world in various locations.

One way that the retail business has built its mobile text marketing database is by advertising its mobile keyword on its website, inviting people to text the word Armory to 99000 and then receive a mobile coupon for 20 percent off of their purchase.

For a competitive edge, the retailer conducted a twist on the traditional Black Friday holiday sales event by holding an additional sale on a different day — right before Thanksgiving which it dubbed Black Wednesday.

Armory Survival Gear used Trumpias SMS marketing solution the day before each sale, offering discounts of up to 70 percent to its VIP customers. As a result, the retailer effectively and affordably realized 30 percent of its average monthly revenues in just two days without the extensive pre-planning activities and expenditures required of traditional advertising campaigns.

And by orchestrating a campaign for each of its Freestyle Session events, the company enjoys great success typically with upwards of 1000 or more attendees per event. The Thursday night Generations party gets roughly about 300 per week, which fills the event to capacity at U-31 in North Park, the venue where it is held.

The ability to provide spur of the moment, up to the minute alerts allows us to capitalize on the fact that most of our audience prefers to receive information that they can use immediately, said DJ CROS1, owner and head of marketing and operations for Armory Survival Gear. Trumpia lets us affordably and quickly grow our business, make adjustments along the way and widely reach our customers who are typically on the go and always have their mobile phones nearby.

People are interested in building rapport and regularly engaging with local businesses that they like and trust, said Derek Rhie, director of sales and support for Trumpia. Armory Survival Gears use of Trumpia is a perfect example of how our platform can help businesses and organizations turn ongoing conversations into real profits, combining the power of SMS marketing, social media messaging and other popular channels like IM and email.”

To take the stress out of any type of move, Adco offers their experience as a residential and commercial moving company in Toronto specialist, to make sure any move is a smooth and stress free experience.

Clarence Barron of Adco Movers says, Its not our being in business for over 25 years, moving hundreds of families and businesses that give us the advantage over large multinationals. Its our passion and ability to connect with our clients on their level to ensure their moving experience is a pleasurable one.”

Adco offers suggestions to those considering a move now or in the near future so that individuals do not experience a hectic, frustrating event. Clarence works directly with clients to ensure they are prepared for the move well in advance, which can be a very crucial step in the process leading up to the actual moving day. A simple list of things to do from starting a couple of months out to the actual moving day will transform anyones frustration into relative calm.

Clarence advises, We have a valuable list of residential moving tips on our website. And one important tip we offer to our residential clients to get started is to put an empty box in each room in the house a couple of months out from the move date. This way everyone in the family can begin packing at a rate that will gradually remove extraneous items from each room, a little bit at a time.

Other suggestions on the Adco website include a great tip in advance of the move to help de-clutter. That tip suggests that owners should consider staging a yard sale a couple of months out, which also can help reduce the amount of items required to be moved. This strategy will also put some cash in the pockets of owners.

From 4 weeks out, by cleaning closets, making itemized lists of furniture to be moved, to contacting utilities and medical personnel along with club memberships a couple of weeks out, will help to ensure a smooth, trouble-free move. Preparing lawnmowers, chain saws, trimmers and snow blowers by draining gas and oil will make the move safe from incidents. Putting together an essentials box with bathroom supplies, medications and first aid supplies is an important item to consider too.
