Coupon use grows at fast clip
Americans seek savings in tight times
Americans are clipping and using more coupons as economic uncertainty continues to engulf households like a fog.
Coupon use jumped significantly when the economy tanked in 2008 and has remained elevated, an indication that consumers continue to be less than comfortable with their economic situations, experts say.
"The fourth quarter of 2008, the world changed. People really started changing their spending habits," said Deborah Mitchell, senior lecturer in marketing at the University of Wisconsin-Madison business school. "We're now three years out and people are still really trying to watch their spending.
"There's been a fundamental shift in consumer behavior and part of it is the increased use of coupons."
The downturn, which some have dubbed the Great Recession, officially ended in 2009. For many Americans, it's ongoing.
"Even if you tell them well, actually, it ended in 2009, they don't believe it," Mitchell said. "No matter what the economists say, Americans feel scared about the economy and they fundamentally changed their shopping habits."
Others agree.
"For the vast majority of consumers, they are still feeling economically strapped to one degree or another," said Dick Seesel, owner of Retailing In Focus, a retail consulting business in Mequon.
"If they have a job, they may not feel good about the value of their house or the value of their 401(k) or any number of things.
"People are looking for value and looking for a deal."
Americans redeemed $2.9 billion worth of coupons last year and, through the third quarter of this year, redemption is up 5%, according to Inmar Corp., which tracks coupon usage in the U.S.
"The change in consumer behavior that led to drastic increases in coupon redemption during the economic crisis is holding post-recession," Bob Carter, president of promotion services for North Carolina-based Inmar, said in a report this year that summarized coupon use in 2010.
Part of the increased redemption of coupons is there are more of them out there to use. In 2010, 333 billion coupons with a total value of $523 billion were distributed, an increase of $76 billion from the year before, Inmar said. That's because companies are doing anything they can to persuade consumers to spend.
"We see every kind of promotion from the traditional kind that show up in the newspaper to the kind that show up on smartphones," Mitchell said. "All kinds of discounts, all kinds of promotions are out there.
"Retailers are throwing everything they can at consumers to get them to buy."
Using coupons, though, may not bring as much savings as buying store brands or generic brands, said David J. Livingston, a grocery store consultant based in Waukesha. A shift to generic or store brands is already occurring.
"There are whole product categories where people have switched to generic or store brands and they're not coming back," Mitchell said.
There are some cases, though, where consumers want a particular name brand, especially if it has a perception of offering something consumers can't get anywhere else, Mitchell said.
"What matters is what is your total outlay? The smart shoppers are very much in the know about that," she said. "They are looking at what their budget is and how much they want to spend and they are asking how they can stretch their dollar as far as possible."
The factors contributing to changes in consumer behavior began decades ago, Seesel said.
"This is a long-term thing," he said. "It didn't just start in the last three years."
Consumers are especially avoiding debt and are constantly searching for value.
Retailers must adapt.
"Stores are finding ways to offer value that aren't always tied to rock bottom pricing on merchandise," Seesel said. "They are still finding ways for consumers to save."
Food coupons were redeemed the most in 2010, Inmar said, with 2.1 billion coupons redeemed. Nonfood coupon redemption was 1.2 billion coupons.
Nearly 90% of coupons in the U.S. are distributed in newspapers.
Among Wisconsin grocery chains, Piggly Wiggly Midwest, based in Sheboygan, has seen its customers' redemption of national coupons grow by double-digit percentages each of the last three years, said Gary Suokko, chief operating officer.
The chain also has its own coupons, Suokko said. "Those have been a big hit as well."
Whether the coupon trend continues is anyone's guess.
"One thing we do know from history, the people who went through the Depression, their spending habits changed permanently," Mitchell said. "Is this cataclysmic enough to cause that same kind of permanent shift?
"Three years in, there's no sign of a letup."
The changes this time around may very well be permanent.
"Definitely for young people, those between the ages of 20 and 40, this could be a permanent kind of thing," Mitchell said.
"Until people start to feel like they have the wealth, we won't see a shift," she added. "It will never go back completely to where it was."
Coupon facts
Redemption of food coupons typically increases near the end of the year as consumers make holiday-season purchases.
The average face value of coupons in 2010 was $1.04 for food coupons and $1.93 for nonfood coupons.
The average expiration period was 2.6 months for food coupons and 2.3 months for nonfood coupons in 2010.
Every person in the U.S. was offered $1,677 in coupon savings on average in 2010. Actual redemption averaged $10.57 per person.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
... anyone have any idea if this means they're now more important than snapnames in terms of acquiring expired Network Solutions domains?
Me-thinks there is more here than meets the eye.
[edited by: Webwork at 4:40 am (utc) on Oct. 7, 2007]
[edit reason] There filter is there for a reason, so please don't attempt an end run [/edit]
As far as I know oversee (owner of snapnames) has an exclusive with all drops from Network Solutions. Other sites like pool.com claim they can grab those names as well but I have never seen it happen. I believe enom has their own aftermarket as well.
ddmedia - that was then ... this is now -- a major shift.
The two blogs mentioned capture it better than I could try to explain it... for example:

[edit reason] See Above Comment [/edit]
eNom (a/k/a Demand Media) sent me an email yesterday advising that my eNom "ClubDrop account" is now at NameJet, and provided login details.
i got an enom email with the announcement but it didn't provide login info .. i had to signup brand new
noted too that when you go to enom's club drop section it indicates that eNom has moved its auctions to NameJet.com�
for netsol domains, the safe bet going forward will prob be to backorder using both namejet and snapnames and see who's able to grab what

Arup and AB Sciex Ally to Develop Methods for Hormone Analysis
AB Sciex is collaborating with Arup Laboratories to design new tests that clinical research laboratories can adopt to improve hormone analysis. They will use AB Sciex' QTRAP® 5500 mass spectrometry system to develop methods that AB Sciex can turn into preconfigured iMethod™ tests available for download into AB Sciex Cliquid® software.
Because many hormones exist in extremely low abundance, immunoassay-based approaches are often plagued by interferences, preventing them from obtaining accurate measurements. To address this challenge, Arup says that it turned to QTRAP technology to obtain a higher level of sensitivity while confirming the results with qualitative capabilities within the same system.
The QTRAP 5500 combines high sensitivity and speed on a platform that integrates quantitative and qualitative analysis, representing a better type of triple quadrupole, according to AB Sciex. "Our mission in the mass spectrometry lab of Arup is to push the limits of quantitation as low as we can, so we can deliver better results for clinical research," says Alan Rockwood, Ph.D., scientific director of the mass spectrometry lab at Arup.
Joe Anacleto, vp and GM of the applied markets and clinical research business, AB Sciex, remarks, "The shift to mass spectrometry-based clinical research continues to rapidly accelerate. To have a leading clinical reference laboratory such as Arup Laboratories utilize QTRAP technology for method development reinforces the importance of high sensitivity that AB Sciex technology delivers."

I take out my mirror and push my hair back with the pink headband I love so much. I'm part deer and thats no joke, I have the ears and short, fluffy tail to prove it, oh and I can also run as fast and be freakily graceful (comes in handy if you wanna dance.) My parents get me to wear poofy dresses because it'l hide the tail better, but I know it's where they preffer me to be girly. I sit at the far end of the boat and hum to myself. My magic....I can communicate with animals (that includes being able to read minds...sometimes.)
I feel a cold slide down my back and shreik. Meg.
"Would you not do that!"
Meg was laughing "Sorry"
I roll my eyes "You know what it's fine. I'll just have to return the favour when you least expect it"
Meg fakes shaking and we both burst out laughing. Annoing as she was it's fun to compete in a pranking war with her. "Let the games begin" Meg beamed.

Intelligence Squared US: Is the FDA Killing Us?
Audio not yet available
Broadcast Times: Saturday 6am on 93.9FM, Saturday 2pm on AM 820 and Sunday 7am on AM 820 and 8pm on AM 820
The Food and Drug Administration, the oldest comprehensive consumer protection agency in the U.S. federal government, is charged with protecting the public health. Under this mandate, it regulates drugs and medical devices for their safety and effectiveness. But is it a failing mandate? It's long been argued that the FDA's long and costly approval processes stifle innovation and keep life-changing treatments from the market. But the question remains: when it comes to public health, is it ever okay to sacrifice safety for speed?

Mike Moustakas was in a slump, hitless over the first three games in Minnesota last weekend and on the bench Sunday.
The Kansas City Royals third baseman was back in the lineup Monday night in Toronto and is officially out of his 0-for-15 skid.
Moustakas hit his first career grand slam to lead the Royals to an 11-3 rout of the Blue Jays.
Manager Ned Yost said Moustakas' day off Sunday was a chance for him to "catch his breath."
Moustakas knocked the breath out of the Blue Jays with an RBI double in the third inning and the slam in a five-run seventh. His five RBI were a career high.
"It was really cool," Moustakas said. "I got a good pitch to hit, got a fastball over the middle of the plate and just tried not to do too much with it."
He did plenty with it.
"That was our first grand slam of the year, and it came at a great time," Yost said.

I love drawing and so draw anything and everything.
Having freshly graduated from Algonquin College's Animation program, I have a keen sense of character and background art, as well as a good grasp on life-drawing.
My art is varied, from a very traditional children's book style to simplified animation characters. I work in:
Realistic, animal, fantasy, American super hero style, Japanese comic style - none of it is beyond me.
I love all sorts of stories, from baby books to simple readers. Any book with a good story to it is only made better by pictures that kick an imagination into high gear.
I don't have any set fees, so if you have a project and might like to use my work, you can contact me via email.
Contact me at Fallen from Heaven.
Thank you for looking! :)

I work with two other people to create illustrations. As a team, we are able to create better work than any of us could individually.
Together, we have two and a half books to our credit.
Myself: I direct the art and create the prototypes and guides for the people I work with. I can also do layouts using Indesign.
Harry: A teacher of art at a university with 50 years of illustrating experience, he is a master of drawing and a good painter.
Adit: A highly developed computer graphics designer. He colours what Harry draws.
As a team, we would be happy to get some contracts to work on.

Children's book illustrations, either traditional or digital.
With a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts, I majored in Advertising; I have over eight years of experience illustrating whimsical characters for licensing, doing graphic design for stationery products and working on a children's magazine.
I have done children's illustrations to be used for CD/DVD.
I just finished illustrating for two self published authors. I believe that communication between author and illustrator is the key.

Children's book cover
I'm Diya Ma, illustrator from Alberta, but I'm here to visualize the dream world in your mind.
I'm good at using bright color in fun, narrative illustrations.
I'm specializing in children's book illustration with a more realistic and 3d looking approach. I'm good with creating images with a sense of interesting humour.
Media choice for me is always in service of the illustration, i.e. to create a clearly comprehensible image. I prefer to use the most appropriate media to illustrate your dream world, rather than using the one I just happen to like.

I use pencil crayon. I apply smudging techniques that make them blend easier and look almost like watercolor.
I have been published many times and have been able to conform to each author's individuality. I would be pleased to work with someone new, to challenge myself, and to bring your art to life.
I have been drawing my whole life. I specialize in animals but have branched out to many other categories of art.

I illustrate with watercolors, creating a colourful, homespun look for children's books. My focus is on simple figures that appeal to children (people, toys, animals, etc.).
Each picture is unique and personal, done by hand and only slightly edited in Photoshop. As a book illustrator, I have been inspired by the work of Beatrix Potter, A.A. Milne, and Edmund Dulac.

Hello! I'm Jessica, an illustrator, colorist and overgrown child from Montreal, Canada.
Like many other artists, I spent most of my childhood drawing, creating worlds and keeping them alive through my art throughout the years.
Drawing doesn't only put bread on the table, it nourishes my very soul, and it's something that I'd never be able to live without. I'm passionate about what I do, and there's nothing that I like more than to help others realize their projects.
I want to help people create their own worlds.
Ive worked with animation, gaming, media and publishing companies as a freelancer for a couple of years now. I have a traditional 2d animation background, I studied at cégep du Vieux-Montréal, where I completed my first animated short, "Uno."
It was always my dream to do a film, so I did just that. Even though I did not pursue animation as a career, it gives me an advantage over most artists in terms of storytelling. I've done a lot of storyboarding, so it's very easy for me to visualize scenes from text.
I have prior children's books experience as well. I worked on the "Balthazar" series for La Courte echelle editions. Two books have been published, and another one is on the way. I've also had my work printed in various artbooks such as cfsl, Merure and Erri.
I'm very comfortable when it comes to digital illustrations, and I can also do some traditional work. I work very fast and very efficiently.
Aside from being an illustrator, I'm also a serious art enthusiast. I'm part of an organization here in Montreal that creates art and comic anthologies, showcasing art from local talents.
Hopefully we'll be able to collaborate on some projects!
Looking forward to working with you,
Jessica Lindsay

I try to stay away from aliases because I had a bad experience once. One night in college we decided to use aliases and I was supposed to be "Phoebe," until some guy asked me to spell it, and then my cover was blown. So remember… Words of wisdom you can only get here at Books By Their Cover… If you decide to use an alias, choose one that's easy to spell!
As for other titles, the one I remember batting around was One Hundred Words for Blue. It was a pretty phrase from the book and it summed up how Cam was feeling in the beginning. But I think there are a lot of similar titles to that one out there.
2. There's a lot of craziness in POM. How do you manage incorporating humor and random animal scenes without losing the underlining tragedy?
My family has always used humor, often self-deprecating humor, (and random animal scenes) to help them wade through difficult times, so the balance between humor and tragedy is sort of a natural state of being for me. My life has always been tragically funny. Or comically tragic. (go ahead... ask around :) So that's the balance I can naturally strike. If I had a "world view," I guess it would be tragicomic. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, humor and sadness are often two sides of the same proverbial coin. They are just different ways to express and release deep feelings about something. The animal scenes you speak of acted as comic relief. You can't have a story that is continual non-stop tragedy. And life is not like that either. When a family is experiencing terrible times, there are moments of lightness in it all. There have to be or we wouldn't survive.
3. When I first saw the cover for POM, I thought "wow is it pink". What was your immediate reaction? Did it seem that POM was finally on its way to becoming a real physical book found in stores?
Yes seeing the cover was a big moment. Before they even started designing the cover my main question was, "Does it have to have a girl on it?'" I was hoping it could be just text design or something abstract. And I probably would have added, "Does it have to be pink?" if I knew they were even considering pink. I'm not really a pink person. In fact, the grocery store manager across the street calls my daughter "Violetta" because I often dressed her in purple as a baby to avoid being inundated in the Pink. But. When I saw that cover. I LOVED it. The pink is appropriate. (and it stands out) The girl is Beautiful. The feather is cool . And the FONT is PERFECT. Don't you think?
Yan: Yes! The cover is growing on me as I look at more. Plus, after finishing POM, I can't imagine anything different.
4. What is your favorite part about Disney World?
When we went with my daughter who was then four, we made it on the first day to Opening Ceremonies, and I had Goosebumps! And it was just 8:30 in the morning. Unlike Cam, I definitely feel the magic of the Magic Kingdom. I have a lot of favorite parts. I love the idea of "Character Dining". How cool is it for kids to sit down to dinner with Cinderella or Winnie the Pooh? That's cool for them. (They should have that for adults. I want to go to a huge restaurant and eat chicken nuggets while Asthon Kutcher and Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon walk around visiting all the tables and stop by to take pictures with you and kiss you on the cheek.)
5. What's your favorite animal?
Tigers. I just wish they didn't have the tendency to eat people and I'd have one for a pet. They're just beautiful. We just went to a little girls' birthday party where she asked for donations to save the tigers in lieu of presents. So Thank You, Hailey, for saving the Tigers!!!
6. When you first told Cam's story, did you already envisioned her to be snarky or was she the one to tell you? Did you find it difficult at times to write her story?
She was always snarky. She had to be in a place where she could protect herself emotionally and the snarkiness was her armor. And she had to start off in a low place spiritually in order for her to grow. As for the second part… writing is Always hard no matter what story you're trying to tell. Once I had created all the characters though the story unfolded. Slowly. Sometimes tortuously. As if I were watching a movie in my head.
7. What are some books you're looking forward to in the upcoming months or year?
Right now I'm reading The Marriage Plot. Then on to: The Art of Fielding, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (before the movie comes out), Swamplandia, The Tigers Wife, IQ84,and more. I tend to shy away from reading a ton of YA, because I don't want to be derivative. I want to stay fresh. Does that make sense? Plus, I'm a little old for it. Honestly. I'm pretty old.
Yan: You can never to be too old for YA! But I understand the worry about staying fresh.
8. I have to know if you have anything else you're working on. I read POM back in July, but it's one of those books that lingered in my head these past 8 months.
Among other things, I'm working on a Thelma and Louise story for teens about the power of friendship and the mysteries of the universe. For now, it's called The Museum of Intangible Things.
Read my REVIEW and check out some extras! The book and the author sound amazing right? Then enter to win a SIGNED copy of POM!

The Host
I love living in the townhouse, in which I live. It has seven doors, which I have individually counted, and they all open up to the outside, rather than the inside, of the house. My town has many townhouses, of which mine is but one. Whenever I open one of my seven doors, I only look at these other houses. I do not like to look up, at the sky. Whenever I do I feel smaller, and run back inside lest I grow too tiny to turn the knob on the door.
My name is Hazel. How are you today?
I bought this house a long while ago. I moved in with my wife, whom I married. I forget when we married. It was so long ago. Her name was Alice, and she is very kind and sweet. I met her feeding pigeons in the park where I would take my evening walks. I walked in the evening so that I can where I am going through the light of the Moon.
I have a son. His name is Jack. I named him after my grandfather.
My father went to war, when I was ten. I know I was ten, as that was what the calendar told me. I don't have a calendar in my bedroom yet. I should get one.
I don't know where they've all gone. Don't worry, I'll take care of you. You'll catch your death of cold, out there in the rain.
The dazzling, brilliant rain.

Courting DeathMature
A girl is thrown into her worst nightmare by a man she has grown to love.
I strike the match and light the candle.
"Follow me," he says, his voice like the breeze on a summer night.
No! Turn back! shouts a voice in my head. But I love him. So I follow.
The dark, damp passageways seem endless. I ask him if he is sure of the way. He says he is, but he doesn't look back. I fight claustrophobia all the way to the black, warped wood of a door. I don't see the chains, don't hear the grate of key in lock. I am blinded and deafened by trust and love. He reaches out his hand to me, pulls me inside. His face is only inches from mine. He leans closer and I close my eyes. Suddenly he is gone. My eyes fly open to see the door scraping across the ground. I throw myself at the door, but he doesn't notice. I hear the key turn. The black wood resists my nails raking across it. I scream at him, but all I hear is laughing. Not the soft, beautiful laugh I have heard a thousand times before, but a cold laugh. I turn, my eyes wide.
The scream that comes from my mouth is more petrified than can be said with words.
I am locked in a room full of corpses.

Maryland Genealogical Society
In Memoriam - Genealogists of Note
The work of family historians today is built upon the foundations laid by noted genealogists who came before us. The Maryland Genealogical Society would like to recognize the achievements of the following genealogists who are no longer with us. Some have passed away recently, while others we continue to remember fondly even after the passage of many years.
Agnes Kane Callum (1926-2015)
Peter Wilson Coldham (1926-2012)
John T. Humphrey (1948-2012)
Jerry M. Hynson (1938-2017)
Mary Keysor Meyer (1919-1998)
Donna Valley Russell (1928-2015)
George Ely Russell, Jr. (1927-2013)
Patricia O'Brien Shawker (1956-2015)
Agnes Kane Callum
Agnes Kane Callum had a distinguished career as a genealogist and authority on the Maryland African-American experience. A descendant of slaves from St. Mary's County, her research on her family led to publication of her first book,
Kane- Butler Genealogy – History of a Black Family
. Her paternal grandfather was born a slave on Sotterley Plantation, and in the 1990s she joined the Board of Trustees of the non-profit that preserves that historic site. She was the founder and editor of the genealogical journal,
Flower of the Forest
, named after a tract of St. Mary's County land that her ancestors owned for nearly 125 years. Topics of her other publications include tombstone inscriptions of Mount Calvary Cemetery; the 7th and 9th Regiments of Colored Troops in Maryland during the Civil War; and marriages of African-Americans in St. Mary's and Anne Arundel Counties. She was a founding member of the Baltimore Afro-American Historical and Genealogical Society, which was renamed the "Agnes Kane Callum" chapter in her honor in 2007. She was inducted into the Maryland Women's Hall of Fame in 2014.
appeared in the
Baltimore Sun
on 27 July 2015.
Peter Wilson Coldham (1926-2012)
Peter Wilson Coldham was a Fellow of the British Society of Genealogists and the American Society of Genealogists. Many family historians with Maryland roots have benefitted immensely from his work on Colonial migration to the Americas. He was the author of more than 26 books and numerous articles, including many standard works on Anglo-American genealogy. Notable titles include
Settlers of Maryland
The King's Passengers to Maryland and Virginia
The Complete Book of Emigrants
, and
The Complete Book of Emigrants in Bondage
The following is a remembrance of him by noted Maryland genealogist Bob Barnes.
Peter Wilson Coldham has died, and the world of genealogical research has lost a remarkable man.
I remember him not only as a fellow researcher but as a friend. The first time we met, via transatlantic telephone, when I started to address him as Mr. Coldham, he interrupted me and said, "Please, call me Peter." Later when he and his wife came to a genealogical conference at Westminster, Maryland, I had the pleasure of having breakfast with Peter and Paulette, his wife, and I learned how much of their time was taken up in a 'community service' project, very similar to the Maryland Food Project. As I thought about writing this article, I remembered Laertes' words in the closing scene of Shakespeare's Hamlet: "Good night, sweet prince. Choirs of angels sing thee to thy rest."
John T. Humphrey (1948-2012)
John T. Humphrey, CG, was known nationally and internationally for his work in German genealogy and Pennsylvania genealogy. His many publications include: the sixteen-volume set Pennsylvania Births, which lists more than 200,000 births in fifteen eastern Pennsylvania counties; Finding Your German Ancestors: A Practical Guide for Genealogists; Early Families of Northampton County, Pennsylvania; Pennsylvania Gravestones, Northampton County; and Understanding and Using Baptismal Records. In 2009, he shared his expertise on baptismal records at a Maryland Genealogical Society Basics+ Workshop on church records. During his career, he served as president of the Mid- Atlantic Germanic Society, a vice president of the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania, and director of the National Genealogical Society Learning Center.

For all the flack recruiting experts get about star ratings and all the so-called misses that occur on a yearly basis, sometimes it hits the nail on the head.
Sometimes you don't have to look too far to figure out why Oklahoma was unable to stay on the same field as Ohio State in a 45-24 loss Saturday evening at Owen Field.
Sometimes the rankings really don't lie.
This is a huge year for OU. The 2017 class, known as SoonerSquad17, could be a game-changer if it can stay intact heading to Norman on signing day.
OU has three commits right now from Scout 100 prospects and 14 overall Scout 300 recruits, earning a No. 3 ranking. A legitimate No. 3 ranking.
But OU is simply trying to catch up to Ohio State. On the field, on the trail. And despite OU's success this year on the trail, it's still trying to narrow the gap.
Ohio State has by far the best class in the nation. How good? The Buckeyes have 12 commits in the Scout 100 and five of them as five-star recruits. That's how you do it.
And if you look back at previous years, you see why OU is in its uphill battle right now.
2016: Ohio State No. 2; OU No. 19.
2015: Ohio State No. 8; OU No. 14.
2014: Ohio State No. 5; OU No. 13.
2013: Ohio State No. 1; OU No. 15.
That's not to say everybody has been a hit in Columbus and everybody has been a dud in Norman. But if you're routinely hitting home runs like Urban Meyer and too often perhaps going to second or third options like Bob Stoops, there's going to be a difference.
You can get everything you can out of certain guys and OU has done that repeatedly with three-star recruits like Jordan Evans, Ahmad Thomas for this year and guys like Charles Tapper, Eric Striker, Zack Sanchez in years prior.
But when push comes to shove and a high four-star or five-star recruit lives up to billing as the Buckeyes have been able to do so often, it shows.
OU's dream of a national championship and spot in the college football playoff are gone. No doubt about that. OU had 12 commits on official visits this weekend and early returns say the guys are still pumped.
It will be key to make sure the SoonerSquad17 class that has shown so much bravado stays right where it is.

PHOENIXVILLE Ś Negotiations between the Phoenixville Area School District and its teachersĺ union continue as the third anniversary of the expiration of the last contract passes.
For the first time officially at the bargaining table by the two sides on June 7, the school district offered the Phoenixville Area Education Association, the teachersĺ union, the terms of last fallĺs fact findersĺ report.
Speaking after the school board workshop Thursday night, school board President Joshua Gould said the offer included the fact findersĺ report with certain terms modified.
ôI want to say thank you to the board for their offer,ö said union co-president Catherine Renzulli. ôAlthough no agreement was reached, both sides acknowledged we have moved.ö
Renzulli said she looked forward to meeting again Friday, when another meeting was scheduled.
Adding on to her comments, Renzulli criticized the board for contracting Magic Memories, an outside education provider, to serve as enrichment coaches in the full-day kindergarten, accusing the school district of moving some teachers out of the building classrooms and into modular classrooms in favor of the Magic Memories ôenrichment coaches.ö
In response to Renzulliĺs charge that Magic Memories teachers were not certified, Gould said the Magic Memories enrichment coaches are, in fact, jelling with statements from Superintendent Alan Fegley in the past.
ôWe ask that you show support and professional consideration on behalf of all of your good, hard-working and loyal teachers, counselors, school psychologists and nurses,ö Renzulli said. ôWeĺre your teachers, counselors, school psychologists and nurses. Please treat us as your own.ö
Tammy Kurtz, co-president of the union with Renzulli, also spoke, urging both sides to ôlook at, in a more creative way, solving the final issues that are still on the table.ö
She said that over the three and a half years of negotiations, the sides have met for negotiation more than 50 times.
A sticking point in negotiations is health coverage offered by the district in regard to an employeeĺs spouse, according to information on the district website and sources.
The districtĺs last position was for a spouse to take health care from their own job, if itĺs offered. Additionally, the difference in cost between the spouseĺs coverage from their employment and the district coverage would be covered by the district, according to Gould after an April school board meeting.
In their last position, the union wished to move forward with the status quo and full spousal coverage by the district plan.
ôOur relationships in negotiations that have gone for three and a half years have remained remarkable good,ö Gould said, echoing a statement from Renzulli.

SESSION TYPE: Miscellaneous Cases II
PRESENTED ON: Tuesday, October 23, 2012 at 11:15 AM - 12:30 PM
INTRODUCTION: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy. Nonchemotherapeutic (bland) transarterial embolization (TAE) is one of the treatment options for unresectable HCC. We describe a case of hypoxemia after TAE likely due to embolization of microspheres to pulmonary circulation.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 76 year old white male presented for bland TAE of HCC, measuring 7.7 x 6.9 cms. He underwent a planning arteriogram and technetium labeled albumin scan revealed 34% shunting to lungs. During the procedure, he had transient decrease in oxygen saturation, requiring 2 L oxygen via nasal cannula for few hours. After a month, he underwent TAE of hepatic arteries with 40, 100 and 400μm microspheres. The procedure was terminated early as he developed chest pain and hypoxia requiring 4 L oxygen. Over the next few hours, he became progressively more hypoxic and was switched to high flow vapotherm with 100% FiO2. His physical examination was unremarkable except for mild right upper quadrant tenderness. Lung exam revealed no wheezing or rales. Computed tomography of the chest showed stable emphysema and bronchiectatic changes and ruled out pulmonary embolism. Echocardiogram was significant for pulmonary hypertension, with estimated right ventricular systolic pressure of 40 mm Hg. Over the next 10 days, patient was provided with supportive care and oxygen was slowly weaned down. He was discharged home with 3 L of oxygen.
DISCUSSION: HCC is a hypervascular tumor with angiographic findings of arteriovenous shunting, characteristically between hepatic artery and portal vein. Normally there is insignificant shunting with the hepatic venous system. Thus shunting of microspheres to the lungs is an uncommon occurrence. Despite this, there have been case reports of fatal pulmonary complications following embolization of HCC. Autopsies in those patients revealed microspheres in small pulmonary vessels. In most cases, the tumor can act as filter and traps the particles. We believe that the presence of 34% shunt to lungs in our patient predisposed him to microembolization. While we could not prove the diagnosis, the presence of pulmonary hypertension on echocardiogram and unexplained new severe hypoxemia temporally related to the embolization, supports the hypothesis that there were embolization of microspheres into small pulmonary vessels.
CONCLUSIONS: Hypoxemia can occur due to microembolization of particles during TAE of HCC. The presence of high shunt fraction to lungs should lead to consideration of alternate modes of treatment for HCC.

i will be showing (and selling) my pottery in BROOKLYN as part of the GOWANUS OPEN STUDIO event on 10/15 and 10/16. for more information, visit my artist's site or the GOS 2016 site.
since the arrival of my kiddos, things have been quiet on the musical front. however, i've been hard at work mothering and . . . playing with clay!
i plan to have an instagram account for my pots and jewelry soon, but in the meantime, here are some finished pieces/ works in progress:
it has been quiet here at clareburson.com, but something new is afoot – a new project, emerging from my little bubble of motherhood and museum-ing. consider this post a 'soft' opening for what i am calling
"THE HEIRLOOM PROJECT: 'this is a cheese' and other family stories"
many of you already know about my petrified cheese. for those of you who do not, go ahead and get acquainted here or here. anyway, i have come to the reasonable conclusion that my 120 year old wedge of cheese cannot be the only wacky family heirloom on the planet. so i am on a quest to collect stories about YOUR awesomely wacky family heirlooms that contain within them the mundane and the poignant.
once i have enough stories, i plan to compile a book (and most likely an accompanying album) that is part anthology, part memoir, part fiction, part mine, part yours, and hopefully, in total, a good time for all.
soon, i will set up a special site dedicated to the project, which will allow you to contribute photos and stories.
for now, please email me at clareburson @ gmail dot com if you have a story or a lead on one. eventually, i will focus the project on objects that are currently located in new york city, but for now, i'm just excited to hear about what's out there.
drop me a line!
happy new year!
i will be performing a few songs on SUNDAY, JANUARY 20th (starting at 7pm) at a lovely writers' salon at JIMMY'S No. 43.
Featured writers on the 20th include:
Alex Gilvarry
Hester Kaplan
Michael Lowenthal
Sarah Manguso
the wee babe turns 10 months on monday! she has 2 teeth and sits up all by herself. she is also a master ukulele-ist.
so, now that she is clearly off and running, i've decided to climb (slowly) back into my creative life.
this starts with a fabulous new fellowship i am honored to be a part of at the 14th street y's LABA HOUSE OF STUDY. 9 NYC-based artists/writers/musicians/chefs convene to create art in response to our monthly study of ancient jewish texts. best part: this year's theme is EAT!
i also have a few shows coming up this fall. all of them should be wonderful, but i'm especially looking forward to my performance on NOVEMBER 5 in LEIPZIG, GERMANY. i will be performing my SILVER AND ASH song cycle (songs in english, story in GERMAN) in my grandmother's hometown surrounded by an exhibit of my mother's artwork. if you happen to be in the neighborhood, please stop by!
see you out there,

If you're eagerly anticipating picking up a PlayStation Vita at launch, February 22nd probably feels distressingly far away. "But I want to play NOW," you may be thinking, feeling, and/or shouting. We understand.
That's why we're going to be fanning out across the country to give loyal PlayStation fans the the opportunity to go hands on with the PS Vita months before launch, through a series of Vita Social Clubs. And for people in the San Francisco Bay Area, that opportunity comes knocking this Thursday with the grand opening of the Vita Hill Social Club. We'll be bringing the food and the beverages, but most importantly, we'll be bringing the Vitas. Dozens and dozens of them. Bring extra hands!
The Vita Hill Social Club will give you the opportunity to play tons of PS Vita games, including UNCHARTED: Golden Abyss, LittleBigPlanet, Little Deviants, WipEout 2048, ModNation Racers, Reality Fighters, and Hot Shots Golf in a relaxing setting. We'll also be raffling off a few things… maybe even a PS Vita (correction: yes, we will).
If there's any game series that's synonymous with PlayStation, it's Wipeout. This fast-paced combat racer has appeared on every single PlayStation console, and now it's preparing to make the jump to PS Vita with Wipeout 2048. We recently interviewed producer Michael Pulst, who gave us a tour of the new control options (front and rear touchscreen as well as motion controls), gameplay refinements, and multiplayer support between PS Vita and PS3. Read on for highlights from our interview.
PlayStation.Blog: What are longtime fans likely to notice first about Wipeout 2048 on PS Vita?
Michael Pulst, Assistant Producer: We've made the tracks a little bit wider. Wipeout has always been known for its intense, hardcore racing; in the past games, you were not only fighting the other players but you're also fighting the track. It was so hardcore that it actually turned some people off; it was a barrier to entry, and the team recognized this. By making the tracks a bit wider, you're able to concentrate more on the race and fighting off the other players.
The WipEout series is synonymous with PlayStation hardware launches and so there's a warm feeling of familiarity to knowing that WipEout 2048 is coming to PlayStation Vita during the launch window.
The game focuses on the birth of Anti-grav racing and the Liverpool Studio team is keen to focus on how the architecture of the futuristic city shapes both look and gameplay. I caught up with Graeme Ankers and Stuart Tilley out in the sunshine between presentations.
It's fantastic to see a new WipEout game on its way, particularly one that is looking to take the series in a new direction. We already know that it will support cross platform play allowing Vita and PS3 players to go head-to-head online and I've just learned that the soundtrack – a vital ingredient in the WipEout DNA – features new remixes of Underworld and Leftfield tracks from the original game, as well as a new track from Deadmau5.
As a fan of arcade racers and an evangelist for all things fast, my face melted off with a recent build of Wipeout (working title) specifically built from the ground up for NGP.
Game director, Stu Tilley promises the biggest Wipeout experience to date; with ten brand new tracks, 20 brand new ships, new game modes and weapons. My favorite feature and new to PlayStation, is cross-platform-gaming. Load up your copy of Wipeout HD on your PS3 and you'll be able to race up against seven NGP opponents in online multiplayer sessions. Mix and match the variety of PS3s and NGPs racers however you like, bringing the world of Wipeout seamlessly together with the power PSN.
Learn more details in the video above, which also showcases how Tilley and his team took advantage of NGP's touch technology, dual cameras and built-in gyros.
Attention Speed Demons: WipEout – one of PlayStation's most celebrated and longest-running franchises – turns 15 this year. To celebrate this momentous occasion, we're launching the WipEout Museum – a brand new space stuffed to the brim with games based upon this critically-acclaimed series of hypersonic, futuristic racers. From the Team Logo Hunt questing game […]
Hello people of America, I'm Paul Tweedle, the Producer of wipEout Pulse, blogging at you from Liverpool in the UK.
