Well, in the case of Wizard World's Mid-Ohio-Con, their SEC filing reveals that:
"The production cost of the 2011 Mid-Ohio Comic Con was approximately $160,000, which we funded out of existing cash and cash flow from our Company's operations and proceeds from ticket sales and exhibitor sales prior to the event."
So Gareb Shamus was removed as CEO of Wizard a few months ago. Now, the company's executive chairman is talking about repairing some of the damage, and the poor reputation of the Wizard brand.
"In an interview with The Beat, Wizard's executive chairman Mike Mathews revealed that a new era has already begun at Wizard World, which will include outreach to the entire industry in a move to repair damaged relationships with both other industry players and fans.
"Gareb is one of these types of personalities who has taken strong positions over the years with various people in the industry and brands. And that kind of hurt us because of where we are trying to go—we're trying to be a Switzerland of entertainment and we want to try to try to reach out to brands." Accordingly, Mathews and other Wizard personnel are in the process of reaching out to industry players, dealers, and vendors and attempting to mend fences…"
Via The Beat, which looks at their SEC filings.
Consideration: Wizard will pay total consideration of $77,500 for the Transaction comprised of an Initial Purchase Price of $60,000 and a 5-year consulting agreement with GCX for $3,500 per year payable in annual installments commencing in the year after the $60,000 Initial Purchase Price has been paid in full. The $60,000 purchase price will be paid out based on an annual royalty from Wizard's revenue from Artist Alley/Creators' Common tables, Exhibitor Booths, Sponsorship and related revenue streams (collectively "Exhibitor Revenue") from Mid-Ohio-Con. For the avoidance of doubt, GCX will not be entitled to any revenue royalty related to box office ticket sales or merchandise sales.
Hey, sounds great. I'd love to sell my con for $77,500 too!
Wait, what's that? That's not a lump sum cash payment? But I still get $60,000 right off the bat, right? No? Oh, I see, "The $60,000 purchase price will be paid out based on an annual royalty from Wizard's revenue from Artist Alley/Creators' Common tables, Exhibitor Booths, Sponsorship and related revenue streams…"
Well, there's still the $3,500/year consulting fee I get, right? Wait, what do you mean I only get that after the $60,000 "purchase price" has been paid. That thing's based on royalties from table and booth fees, and there's no guarantee how much that will be each year….
Oh, right. Nice work, Wizard lawyers. Well played.
Not to contradict Dara's Mid-Ohio Con beef, but this weekend's Mid-Ohio Con was seriously the best show I've ever had in my life.
I have never seen so much foot traffic, and I've never had so many sales. It's true, with the higher table price, I did not make my table. But compared to previous years it was about comparable.
For one thing, Wizard showed a baseline competence in marketing. Remember that year we sent out a press release about the pre-show party, and the Dispatch called us to ask why MOC didn't send out its own release? That didn't happen this year. MOC was on the front of the Other Paper, was featured in the Weekender, and I think Adam West spoke to Channel 4. Adam West's job was to get people in the door, and he did it.
We talked to several people who were attending the convention for the first time. I don't care that some people got in with a Groupon. That meant they had more money to spend with me.
It is also true that we were stuck in the back corner, and I know of at least three people who were there and never found me. But, I think the quieter setting made it easier for us to capture the foot traffic. I think I had an easier time getting people's attention, even if we were right next to the Mandalorian dress-up club.
Should they have invited Dara and Sean McKeever? Definitely. Could they have used more space? Sure, although "too many people" is a good problem to have. Prices too high? Absolutely, although judging by reports of price cuts, they may be learning that.
All I can say is I personally had a good show, and (if I can afford it) I'll be back next year.
That is, according to its new owner:
"It is the third-oldest comic convention," said Gareb Shamus, CEO of Wizard World, which is taking over the event. "It is near and dear to my heart."
In fact, Shamus said he considers only the San Diego Comic Con and the Chicago Comic Con to be more influential than Columbus's.
Did you catch that? This show is near and dear to his heart.
You guys already know how I feel about Wizard, so I'll just post the above without any further comment.
Panel 18 debuts at the Mid Ohio Con of Wizards… which starts right… now. It can be yours for $3. We've got page numbers! Go get your hot lil' hands on this anthology at Andy B's and or Tony G's table. Missed the Groupon $10 deal on tickets? No worries. If you didn't hit the blood bank for admission money, the anthology will soon find it's way into local shops so keep your eyes peeled. As always thanks for supporting small press and remember Panel loves you. Hard.
You're on my turf now, nerds! Let me show you around. Got specific requests? Hit me up on Twitter, @tonygoins
Pre-Mid Ohio Con Party: That's at Packrat Comics out in Hilliard, going on until 11:30 p.m. tonight. They're also running a shuttle service from THE HYATT AND HAMPTON INN main entrance every 30 minutes, starting at 6:30 p.m.
3872 Lattimer Street
Hilliard, OH 43026
Google Maps http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&num=10&ie=UTF8&q=pack+rat+comics&fb=1&gl=us&hq=pack+rat+comics&hnear=0x883889c1b990de71:0xe43266f8cfb1b533,Columbus,+OH&view=map&cid=6410232749100972516&iwloc=A&ved=0CDUQpQY&sa=X&ei=QMWhTsSJI4iCNKKmqMQI
Where you Are
You're in the Short North district, which is one of the cooler areas around here. High Street is the big north-south drag, and it runs in front of the Convention Center.
Bars: I have nothing against the hotel bar, but if you want to venture out, here are some recommendations:
Across the street is Barley's, which is chill and they serve their own microbrewed beer. Also across the street is Knead — I've never been there at night, but during the day they have housemade twinkies. Believe it. MoJoe lounge (just north of the center) is pretty cool, too.
South of the convention center there's not much, but if you want to walk four blocks you'll find Elevator and Barrio, which are a little fancy but still chill.
If you want to venture north of the convention center, I'd recommend Press Grill and Short North Tavern. But really, if you can walk a mile, I'd recommend
* Surly Girl Saloon: 1126 N. High – if Suicide Girls were a bar.
*Barrel 44: 1120 N. High – Whiskey. Lots of whiskey.
* North Star Cafe: 951 N. High St – Lots of fresh, lots of vegetarian, extremely super chocolately cookies and housemade ginger ale. www.thenorthstarcafe.com/
*Tip Top Kitchen: 73 E. Gay St – Fresh local food, and Ohio-themed cocktails. Have an Alex P. Keaton for me.
Getting Around: Don't be afraid of the bicycle cabs, they're here for you.
And the No. 1 bus runs up and down High Street until midnight, and the No. 21 "Night Owl" runs until 2:30 a.m. That's $1.75 one-way, $4 for a day pass. Either of those will take you to anything I just mentioned.
White Castle: It's at 965 North High St. Now that I've mentioned it, you can't not do it.
Nightclubs: I haven't done a lot of dancing since we got the baby, but here's what I know:
Ravari Room is having its Heaven vs. Hell pre-Halloween party Saturday night. I'm personally going to try to make that one. That's 2661 N. High St.
Outland on Liberty was the longtime goth club here, but it has some competition these days. That's south of you in the Brewery District (ask your cab driver)
Shrunken Head has Communion (gothwave-industrial-darkalt-synthpop) on Fridays.
Long Street used to be the big dance club, and it seems to be coming back.
Gay dance clubs nearby are Wall Street (a mile or two south) and Axis (about 6 blocks north, back behind the smoothie shop). I used to love me some Wall Street back in the day (2004).
Park Street area: Just west of the Convention Center is all the Park Street bars. I can't vouch for them, and they seem a little douchey. Don't come crying to me if some jock throws you into a locker and takes your lunch money.
Found this helpful? Stop by and say hi to me, Molly and Craig at table 1325, and Andy over at table 801.
So here's a little story about something I witnessed at the New York Comic Con yesterday. If you've never been to the show, it's practically an East Coast version of Comic-Con in San Diego, in terms of scale and crowds. I think the estimate for this year's attendance is 100,000 people.
Anyway, we were walking around the massively crowded main show floor yesterday when I saw this little altercation. There was a guy carrying one of those medium size swag bags full of something, I'm assuming books. We'll call him Guy #1. Suddenly, another guy (let's call him Guy #2) runs up behind him at full charge, violently yanks the bag out of his hand, and starts walking away, glaring the whole time at Guy #1. And I mean a super pissed-off, murderous kind of glare.
The first thought that ran through my head was "holy crap, Guy #1 just got robbed!" But then I noticed instead of reacting the the way you'd assume he would, he not only didn't say a word, but just kept walking the way he was going. If anything, he picked up his pace a bit, and within a few seconds he had disappeared into the crowd.
Looking back towards Guy #2, I saw him walk behind one of the smaller publisher booths and put the bag down, still pissed off. So it seems like he was just recovering his merchandise that was stolen in the first place by Guy #1. Oddly enough, no words were exchanged during the whole incident, and there was no call for security. But also luckily, there was no violence.
Made me wonder how often this kind of "shoplifting" occurs at big, crowded cons like this.
Just a quick note to let you know I'll have a table at the 2nd annual Cincinnati Comic Expo, taking place Saturday September 17 at the Duke Energy Convention Center in Cincinnati.
I had a blast last year at the inaugural show, and this year's guest list has expanded to include legends like Jim Steranko and Jose Delbo, plus writers and artists as diverse as Darryl Banks, Stan Goldberg, Jackson Guice, Tony Moore, and many others. Friends of the Ferret Sean McKeever, Andy Bennett, Dave Aikins, Chris Sprouse, and many other local and regional creators will also be in attendance.
10-5:30, only $10 to get in, plus panels, costume contests, and gaming. Check out the official site for more info.
Hope to see you there!
Well, well, well, look what showed up in the mail today:
Oh, so they do have me on their mailing list. That's nice.
By the way, want to see all the big name comic book creators who are featured on the front of the postcard? You know, the postcard advertising the Mid-Ohio Comic Con?
That's right, only Jeff Smith. Only 1 out of the 9 pictured featured guests is an actual comic book creator.
Oh, and if you want the affordable $40 2-day ticket, you'd better hurry. Because as the card says, "pay more at the door."
(By the way, there's an update here.)
Last year, my hometown comics convention, Mid-Ohio-Con, celebrated its 30th anniversary. Sadly, that was also the year that the independent show was acquired by Wizard World conventions. Almost immediately, comic creators and fans of the venerable show took to Facebook and Twitter to lament the passing of an era. Like any other long-running comic con, it had its share of ups and downs, but at the end of the day, MOC was always a fun show to attend, never too crowded or too "Hollywood," where guests were easily accessible to fans, and the atmosphere was relaxed and congenial.
(Above: a couple of the earliest sketches in my con sketch book, acquired at Mid-Ohio-Con. Typhoid Mary by John Romita, Jr. (1990) and Beanworld by Larry Marder (1993).
MOC was the first comic con I ever attended as a fan, starting sometime in the late 80s, 1988 maybe? I know it was when it still hadn't moved to Columbus. And I've been attending the show as a comics fan for over 20 years. As a creator, I've had a table at the show since 2002. Coupled with Columbus' own indie/small press show in the spring, S.P.A.C.E., these 2 shows are more than just comic cons to me. They're institutions, traditions. They're a chance to meet old friends, respected creators, and new fans. Colorist Matt Webb and I used to get together for a drink every year he was there. I looked forward to catching up with fellow Columbusites Sean McKeever, Darryl Banks, and Chris Sprouse at the show, and going out to dinner with my fellow PANEL Collective members and new friends after the show. The pre-con parties that used to be sponsored by my local store, The Laughing Ogre, were legendary. Free beer, food, entertainment, and a chance to mingle with creators in a fun environment. What a blast!
I remember the first time my young daughter attended the show on my guest badge, dressed up as Batgirl. Or the time before that when a life-sized remote controlled R2D2 chased her around the convention floor, much to her delight. Having slowly built up my profile as a writer over the last several years, I can't explain the sheer joy and appreciation I felt when folks would seek me out at MOC and ask what new books I had out since the previous year. The first time I was invited to participate as a comics pro on a panel was at MOC.
(Above: Mid-Ohio-Con 2002, my first year attending as a creator, not just a fan (yes, I had green hair). Also my table at MOC '03 (or maybe it was '04?) This is when the con was at the Hilton at Easton Town Center)
Several years ago, the con's long-time showrunner, the personable and accessible Roger Price, sold the show to James Henry and his brother. The con had been struggling for a few years by this point, but I feel that the Henry brothers did an admirable job of trying to turn things around. Certainly, they were very open to working with local creators and the Columbus community, and were especially fair and generous with me.
But that's all in the past, as this year, it's a different story. Sure, Wizard World retained the Mid-Ohio-Con name, but that's just window dressing. The guts of the show are now all Wizard World, and everything that entails. Just Google Wizard World conventions and see what folks have to say about the infamous Gareb Shamus' low-rent outfit.
(Above: me and the PANEL crew on a small press panel, I believe at MOC 2006. And my booth at MOC 2008, when it had moved back down to the Greater Columbus Convention Center.)
I debated whether to apply for a table or not. An artist alley table which used to cost $125, is now $200. Yes, a 60% increase. And attending the show as a fan will also cost you a lot more this year. For the past 3 years, I had been comped a table at the show. So after hearing from other creators that they were offered free tables, I broke down and decided to contact the new organizers. In my email, I introduced myself and my history with the show (20+ years attending, 9 years tabling as a creator, 4 years organizing/sponsoring a pre-con party, volunteering for con programing as both moderator and panel guest, etc.), listed my credits (Image, IDW, DC, etc.), listed my upcoming projects (Dark Horse Presents, CBLDF Liberty Annual), and asked if they would be willing to provide a comp table. Their answer?
"Unfortunately, we have no more comp tables available for Mid-Ohio. If you would like to attend tables are $200. See artist alley form attached."
Now, I completely understand my place in the "hot celebrity guests" pecking order. I know I'm not a main draw like Bill Sienkiewicz or Jeff Smith. And I'm not saying I automatically deserve a free table. But at the same time, I'm not some Joe Shmoe off the street whose only contribution is selling photocopied "prints" of copyrighted Marvel & DC characters. I've got a body of work that I've been building for the past 10 years, including high profile properties like Ghostbusters and Terminator, as well as creator-owned books and small press publications. And I'm a local Columbus guy who has been been supporting and promoting this show for a very, very long time. To go from being comped a table for the past several years to being summarily rejected with a one-sentence form letter response stung a little, to put it mildly.
So I waited a few days to think about it, and not say or do anything rash. And I contacted Wizard World back and explained that while disappointed, I was still interested in having a presence at the show, especially since I have a story in this year's CBLDF benefit book and have been invited to sign at the CBLDF booth to raise money for the fund. All I was asking for was a measly guest badge to the show. Again:
"If you would like to attend as a professional pro passes are $25 for the weekend with a valid business card."
That's right, at a Wizard World show, comics professionals are treated to an amazing discount of 26% off the advance price tickets. Incidentally, as a means of comparison, I'm attending the NYCC show in New York as a professional, and their pro badges cost a mere $10 compared to the regular $85 advance price. For those of you who don't want to do the math, that's an 88% discount for a 4-day show that features a couple hundred more guests than MOC, and boasts major publishers, etc.
(Above: Unmasked party, 2006 & 2007. Live music by Poop House Reilly.)
And again, I understand that Wizard World has a business to run. But I find my treatment a bit puzzling, and very frustrating, given my long association with the con. Doubly so, in light of reports such as this one on The Beat that shows WW comping all sorts of creators:
"In recent months, Wizard has also been reaching out to pretty much every cartoonist on earth to invite them to be guests at their shows. The basic invite includes a table but no travel or hotel room…Yesterday there was evidence of Wizard taking it to a whole new level, as indie cartoonists were tweeting about their own Wizard invites."
"[Brian] Harbin further tweeted that his invite was particular surprising given past history: 'Back when I ran HeroesCon, there was a ton of bad blood between us. They're dicks. So I was like ??? at the invite. …Well, I don't bear them super ill will or anything. I'm tempted to email back and ask for a plane ticket/hotel room.'"
I don't know, maybe WW somehow forgot about me. I mean, I've only been on the MOC mailing list for 20+ years, and their guest list for 9.
Seriously, what's the point of going around and buying up regional shows, when you're not going to make the slightest attempt to build any sort of relationship with the community and the show's long time advocates? As you can see from the canned replies above, there was zero effort and zero interest on their part in engaging me in conversation or trying to work out some sort of a deal. Not even a nominal, token one. Nothing. Thanks for contacting us, here's our website where you can pay us your money, good bye.
(Above: posters from 4 years of "Unmasked," the pre Mid-Ohio-Con party organized by me, with a ton of help from my friends in the PANEL collective. Artwork by Tom Williams and Andy Bennett.)
So ok, I should just let it go and take the high road. After all, it's just a comic convention. But you know what? It's a comic convention that means something to me. And being dismissed in this manner sucks, and bothers me a great deal, and just validates every crappy thing I've ever heard or read about how Wizard World runs a con or treats fans.
So this is the part where, despite my better judgment, I lapse into an unprofessional rant. I know I shouldn't, but screw it. Not only will I never pay money out of my own pocket to attend Mid-Ohio-Con, or any Wizard World convention, but Mid-Ohio-Con's new corporate overlord can go fuck itself. And while we're on the topic, Wizard World can take their precious Rob Liefeld, and has-been convention whore actors like Adam West and Burt Ward, and "celebrity" guests like William Holman ("Contestant – Bachelor Pad; The Bachelorette"…wow!) and shove them straight up its ass as well. I don't wish for anyone to lose their job, especially in this economy, but when they day comes that Wizard World goes extinct the way of Gareb Shamus' other much-maligned venture, I won't shed a tear. The comics industry will be better off with a more progressive, responsive organization being in charge of regional conventions. We as creators deserve better, we as fans deserve better, and Columbus certainly deserves better.
RIP, Mid-Ohio-Con.
PS. For nostalgia's sake, you can check out one of the longer con write-ups I did, for the 2005 show, here. And there's a bunch of pictures from the first Unmasked pre-con party we (the PANEL collective) sponsored in 2006, after The Ogre stopped doing so, here.
Today I'm continuing the series describing my process for creating my cover image for PANEL 17: PULP.
Last Friday I described the sketch stage, where I cut the design from whole cloth and prepare for a final drawing. Once I have a sketch I'm happy with, I transfer it directly to the final art board. Since my sketches are frequently so small, this usually involves a scan/scale/print/graphite transfer affair. I print the sketch at final art size, coat the back of the print with graphite, and trace it over onto the board. This leaves a ghost-image on the board, with all the correct proportions/perspective of the smaller sketch.
In other instances, such as times when the final art is much larger than my printer's capability and I don't care to assemble pieces, I'll do a grid transfer. In this method, I draw a grid over the sketch, usually about 10 squares high by 6-7 squares wide, for images in this ratio. I then draw the same grid on the blank art board and re-draw each square one at a time. It's a quick way to accurately re-draw a smaller image without all the intermediate steps of a graphite transfer.
In this case, I decided I could probably improve the composition a little by re-drawing it entirely. So I started instead on a blank board, and re-drew the sketch freehand, and put everything exactly where I wanted it. After filling out the drawing enough to where I could ink confidently, I began the ink stage. This is where I spend the most time on an image, and where I think my style really emerges. Here's a side-by-side of the original sketch with the inked cover art (click to enlarge):
The sketch was rather spontaneous, so it was not drawn in the correct ratio, which is why it isn't as tall as the final. As you can see, I pushed the "Femme Fatale" character further into the foreground, and enlarged the "hero" in the background, to improve the drama and overall design of the page. In addition to the composition changes, I changed the figures in many ways. I fixed her legs, tilted her head, showed a bit more of his face, and I gave her a cigarette so I could use the smoke as a design element. I also eliminated a lot of the extraneous props on the desk, as they seemed like too much clutter to me, and angled the shadows on the wall quite a bit more, for added drama.
In the next step, I'll be adding the digital colors and effects, as we get closer and closer to the final art. Tune in Wednesday to see the results…

You bought your Routan because its German engineering and reliable performance struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for anything but the best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? Make no mistake, you bought your Routan because you understood you would be getting good looks and trusted quality both impeccably combined into one car, truck, or SUV. While it may not be difficult to find replacement parts for Volkswagen vehicles, these days only the absolute best are required to maintain your car or truck. It's not a regular occurrence that you realize that you have to buy a replacement A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator to repair your vehicle.
Ever since the 1950s, cars and trucks have been built with either standard or optional climate control systems. The lifeblood of the air conditioning system is a refrigerant called R134a. The refrigerant emits cold air after a simple thermal reaction, and it tends to accumulate moisture as it cycles through the HVAC system in your Volkswagen Routan. Your car's A/C receiver drier is installed between the condenser and the expansion valve, and it separates the water from the refrigerant so that it can go on to cool your passenger compartment. Any time you perform work on your air conditioning system, you must change your Volkswagen Routan A/C receiver drier or accumulator.
At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents on the phone with enough expertise to help you purchase the appropriate Volkswagen Routan part for your needs. When your Volkswagen needs the best replacement A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Make all your future car parts purchases at carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. When it comes to Volkswagen Routan A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator parts, you can find them for 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

and when i shut it off am starte it again its fine untill it reaches 30 mph then goes in nuteral
do I follow the distributer cap numbers or is it mixed up?
I do not have the permanent code assigned to the vehicle ...It is used to program your personal code into the system. I have the code it is set at, but the car locks itself sometimes with my phone, purse, etc in the car. The number it has is very hard to remember and I need to change it asap.....The manual says 3 taped pieces have been put into the car nowhere to be found. How can I change it to a number I can remember in an emergency since it locks itself occasionally????????
I took the wheel off and nothing seemed lose. It comes and goes while i drive. Its fine when I drive at slower speeds. Then it shakes bad at 50mph. Shakes the steering wheel. I was going to change out the ball joints and tie-rods because its easy and all bolt on parts. How will i tell if its an axel or ? Ps. last winter i went in the ditch with this van so there could be some wear from that. I have put 6000 highway miles on it in the last 4 months, driving back and forth from Denver to Spokane, WA. I want to drive back up to WA again for Thankgiving but I need to fix this first.
When my van over heats it starts while its moving and it runs hot to the point tha it shuts off. I recently had the thermostat & radiator replaced but i was told that the radiator housing was cracked and its leaking anti freeze. Could that be the problem & I've let it get worst by continuing to drive it?
I have a 1993 Mercury Villager and all of a sudden today when driving the engine will rev and I will lose speed in the middle of driving. The vehicle bucks a little when this happens. What is the problem or things I should check. The oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and power steering fluid are all full and fine. This is just so sudden and I have no idea what it is. I think I smell a little burning rubber, could it be a belt?

Today, our group site like to share some bounce rate secrets of Coupons Crow.
Coupons Crow has got registered on last year (2014) and we started all the works only on this current year.
Now, we are sharing our google analytics of last month (i.e 1 – 30 April 2015). This article reveals all the valuable information's like our strategies, tricks we used etc..,
How I Got Reduce Bounce Rate & Increase Pageviews On One Month Traffic
While at the initial stage from January-March we didn't concentrate much on promotions. And we are giving importance to promotions only from the last month. With the help of this promotion strategy, we enjoyed good page views and the bounce rate of our site has also decreased in a great manner.
The secret tricks have been given as follows:
How did we start our site?
First, we designed the site with the help of both WordPress and bootstrap. Then we made one responsive design and alterations to have an official look.
Second, we planned for each and every step in promotional activities and we created one promotion task. We act as per the promotional task and the updates have made frequently to acquire the good result.
At first, we bought the shared hosting in Hostgator. And now we changed it to Bluehost WordPress hosting.
Let's have a look on our Bounce Rate Screenshot
Next we focused to reduce the bounce rate on our site. So we added the popular post and trending post in the sidebar widgets. This makes our users stay in our site for a longer time. This helps to increase the page views. Finally, we made some designs to have the average users and page views in our site. This helps us to enjoy remarkable growth in our site. And, in addition, this results in good Stay Time of the users in the site. And mainly it helps in SEO and provides a great support in Search Engine.
Following are the devices on which the users used to visit our site
1. 1065 visitors were using Desktop so the bounce rate is only 18.03%
2. Through mobile we are having 391 visitors, it results in 26.34 bounce rate.
3. Only 41 visitors were using tablets. So it results in 9.76 bounce rate.
Overall view results that good promotion has attained only with the help of desktop and the maximum stay time is up to 6.49 minutes.
This shows that we started our promotional activity by analysing each and every step and simple activities.
Have a look on this screenshot
In this, we updated all the exclusive ways on which the traffic sources have attained.
1. Our research tells that organic search has placed the 1st rank because we had 533 visits and bounce rate is about 11.44% only.
2. 516 users searched directly. In this bounce rate is about 15.12%
3. Through referral sites, we had 358 visits and the bounce rate is of 43.02%
4. With the help of social media, we had only 90 users and the bounce rate is also low which is about 6.67%. This shows that the only minimum number of visits were there using Social media.
On this Social media, Facebook plays a crucial role and the traffic is not so good in Twitter and Google plus.
What is our next plan?
To update all the deals, coupons offers etc in a regular manner. To make the site branded by providing all the valid information and by making it as a helpful site to all the users.
We have planned to have a target of attaining 5000 visitors within 3 months and to maintain the bounce rate with the help of good traffic.
And now, we have started Forum in coupons crow. We like to bring good traffic in this site.
Did we plan to post some valuable articles in this site which relates to shopping like shopping reviews, How to have a secured shopping? Etc..
These are our golden rules which we planned to do next.
Final Word
We think this article "How I Got Reduce Bounce Rate & Increase Pageviews On One Month Traffic" may help you to get some strategies. If you like it just Comment and Share it with your friends.
And finally, we like to thanks, each and every valuable visitor who visit our site. And Thank You for spending your good time on reading this article 🙂

Mushroom Turnovers with Sour Cream
Our flaky stuffed pastries are a vegetarian main that's easy and elegant -- just add a salad for a complete meal.
- Prep:
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
Source: Everyday Food, November 2008
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 4 packages (5 ounces each) mixed mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce box), thawed
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream, for serving
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough (still folded in thirds) to a 20-by-10-inch rectangle. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, trim edges straight; cut dough into four 10-by-5-inch rectangles. Dividing evenly, mound mushroom mixture on one half of each rectangle, leaving a 1/2-inch border on three sides. Lightly brush border with water; fold other half of pastry over filling, and press edges firmly to seal. With a floured fork, crimp edges.
Using a wide metal spatula, transfer turnovers to a large baking sheet. With a paring knife, cut 3 to 4 small slits in the top of each turnover. Bake until golden and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes; serve turnovers with sour cream.

telsing6 MAR, 2011I would recommend cooling the filling as it will melt the pastry and make handling difficult.Reply

Trying to find creative ways to propose to your girlfriend? Well here is one – Atlanta-based photographer and filmmaker Walt Thompson invested 22 hours shooting and "God knows how long" editing this stop-motion LEGO marriage proposal for his girlfriend of four years, Nealey Dozier. Check the result –
"He had been locking himself in his 'man-cave' for the past few days, no girlfriends allowed," Dozier told The Huffington Post. "He claimed to be working on an anniversary poem, which didn't raise any flags because he writes me one every year."
On Tuesday, Jan. 3, after taking a total of 2,600 painstakingly posed photographs, Thompson played the video for Dozier in the living room of the Atlanta home the two share.
"He directed me to the DVD player and told me to press play," Dozier said. "He then came to stand behind me, and within seconds I could feel the loud thumping of his heart and his quivering hands as they grabbed for mine. It was only then that I realized this was no anniversary poem."
As Dozier watched, Thompson waited for the exact moment the words "Will you marry me?" appeared on the screen.
"When the words came on the 46″ television it was playing on, I hit my knee and pulled out the box, which contained the LEGO bride and groom," Thompson, a friend of this reporter, told HuffPost. "Obviously, the groom was holding the ring."
Dozier said she couldn't contain her excitement. She wanted to know how he had made the video and when they should contact their parents, among other things.
"We shared an awkward, fumbling kiss before I launched into 20 questions," she said. "It was after 10 minutes that I realized I hadn't even said yes. Poor guy had to wait it out in torture for the answer!"
Source: www.huffingtonpost.com
And then there are simpler ways – Kneel down and ask – "Will you please marry me"?

General Broadcasting
Students of General Broadcasting studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! General Broadcasting textbooks – for example Good Morning Nantwich: Adventures in Breakfast Radio by [Phill Jupitus], and Radio Production Principles (College Custom) by [Edward S. Welch] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of General Broadcasting is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of General Broadcasting books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking General Broadcasting classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

Dodge Charger Pursuit Spied At Police Trade Show
The Dodge Charger Pursuit got one of its first public viewings at a police trade show. Lund Industries, which makes police car accessories like gun racks and light bars, had a 2011 Charger on display to show off their wares, and were kind enough to take video of the Charger for those who aren't in law enforcement.
Chrysler still has yet to release pictures of the civilian Dodge Charger, so for now, the black-and-white patrol car is our best look yet. We can't wait to get a chance to sample one with a HEMI.

Japan's Next-to-Last Stand
By Russell F. Weigley;
Published: August 30, 1992
TENNOZAN The Battle of Okinawa and the Atomic Bomb. By George Feifer. Illustrated. 622 pp. New York: Ticknor & Fields.
OKINAWA, April 1-July 2, 1945, was surely a Tennozan, an all-out, decisive battle. Fighting with suicidal tenacity, the Japanese defenders suffered some 110,000 deaths; 7,400 were taken prisoner. They inflicted more than 49,000 casualties on the Americans, about 12,500 of them killed. Some 150,000 Okinawan civilians died. The outcome was the American conquest of the last stepping stone toward invasion of the Japanese home islands (politically, Okinawa was a prefecture of Japan). Strategically, the Americans and Japanese both saw the battle for Okinawa as a preview of the coming battle for Japan. George Feifer argues in "Tennozan" that Okinawa thus prepared the way for using atomic bombs, lest the United States have to fight another such struggle, or worse.
It was especially the tragedy of the Okinawan people that drew Mr. Feifer to chronicle the battle. He was long a journalist in the Soviet Union, known especially for his 1976 book, "Moscow Farewell." In Moscow he became accustomed to a brutal government's ability to provoke callous indifference to suffering among its people. Visiting Okinawa, he could not resist the appeal of a people who remained gentle and friendly after so many of them had been oppressed and slaughtered.
While it continually returns to the plight of the Okinawans, however, his book is mainly a skillful narrative of combat history. Military historians may be disappointed that to insure pace and focus, Mr. Feifer concentrates on a few elements of the rival forces and says little or nothing about others. In the 10th United States Army, the invading force, he follows principally the 6th Marine Division. In the Imperial Japanese 32d Army, he makes much of the 22d Infantry Regiment in the 24th Infantry Division. The compensation for losing some of the larger picture is occasional exceedingly vivid detail, drawn from interviews and from a perceptive reading of the firsthand accounts from the caves and foxholes.
The zeal of the Japanese in defending Okinawa surpassed any strategic necessities as perceived by non-Japanese military critics; after all, Okinawa was not truly Japan itself. Mr. Feifer therefore can scarcely help seeing the Battle of Okinawa as a metaphor for current Japanese economic competitiveness: "Although the nature of contemporary Japan lies well outside the scope of this book, the qualities displayed on Okinawa -- extraordinary intensity, insularity and a zealous capacity to endure pain in order to serve the nation and obtain rewards in a later life -- may help explain the startling Japanese triumphs in manufacture and trade."
Mr. Feifer believes that the shock of the atomic bombs loosed the grip of the insular and intense Japanese just enough to permit surrender in 1945, though even then nearly provoking a coup by die-hard militarists. He thus inclines toward the view that Okinawa demonstrated Japan would not have surrendered under bombing and blockade but would have had to be invaded, against formidable concrete artillery emplacements, ferocious infantry and women and children guerrillas wielding sharpened bamboo shoots. "That is what the American fighting men believed in their gut," Mr. Feifer writes. The fighting men may not have been right, but their opinion was nearly unanimous, and it is presumptuous for those of us who did not experience Okinawa to dismiss their view. George Feifer helps us remember why they held it.

FRANCE: European Parliament calls for CO2 limits from 2015, not 2012
The European Union parliament has urged the European Commission not to set mandatory CO2 emissions targets until 2015 to allow manufacturers time to develop new models. A slightly tougher target than that currently proposed for 2012 should be achievable by then, the report said.

Dotarinium was the first village ever, made by the subspecies Homo spicalis dotarus.
Dotarinium comes from Dotarus (Homo spicalis dotarus).
- 39,166 BC - Dotarinium was found by the Homo spicalis dotaruses in OTL North-eastern Sudan.
- 39,132 BC - Homo spicalis dominicuses find the Homo spicalis dotaruses and start The First Battle of Homo Spicalis, and Dotarinium is threatened.
- 39,130 BC - The Homo spicalis dominicuses finally win the battle, and claim Dotarinium for themselves.
- 38,993 BC - Homo spicalis dominicuses flee, scared because they suddenly saw Homo spicalis spicalises again, after they thought they killed all of them during The Second Battle of Homo Spicalis. They made a big mistake. The Homo spicalis spicalises capture Dotarinium.

Ceremonial Excess?
to the editor:
the borough presidencies are now so insecure in their ceremonial positions that one of the beeps had to gather those he appointed to demonstrate at city hall recently ("community boards protest cuts," june 11). the only point that was made was impotence.
if, indeed, the gathering of some community board appointees was about funding our local community boards, then the solution was plain. elimination of the office of the borough president would provide the necessary funding to boost the community boards of new york.

Indrajeet Sen, a 17-year-old student of Calcutta International School, set off for the All India Ride for Peace and Unity with Chandan Lahiri, Joy Raja and Solomon Jacob, bike enthusiasts from across the country. The under-age Indrajeet also the youngest in the recently-held expedition was the official photographer. Here are a few snapshots from the journey:
Three Bullets, 12,000 km, 30 days. That was the task taken up by four adventurers, who had come together from across the country.
The ride an effort to raise funds for the victims of communal riots in Gujarat started from Delhi. Leaving Chandans Chittaranjan Park flat, we loaded up and the four of us set out on three bikes, for the flag-off.
The two-lane highway was smooth, and we reached Chandigarh, our first stop, with no trouble. In Solan, we stopped to pick up a stock of meat pickle enough to last a few days. Then, the Ghats were upon us and Solomon, our most experienced rider, was full of tips on how to manage the slopes. But a shortage of fuel forced us to head back for Solan and halt for the night.
The next morning, we decided to head straight for Dehra Dun, skipping Simla. The roads were smooth, the scenery breath-taking. There was just a handful of towns on the way, where people would wave us through. The lunch stop meant stuffed parathas and anda-bhujia, hot chai and photographs. Soon we also had to stop as the brakes on one of the bikes were giving trouble. We were riding non-stop on the twists and turns of the Ghats, but at sundown, we were still quite far from Dehra Dun. Then, my synthetic muffler got stuck in the back wheel, melting partially in the heat and getting jammed. We had to park and painstakingly remove the bits in the dark. By the time we reached our night halt, it was 2 am.
We took our vehicles to the Royal Enfield workshop at Dehra Dun, where we were told that it would take the rest of the day to complete repairs. By 7 pm, the bikes were ready for the road. We set out, deciding to cover as much ground as possible. By midnight, having travelled around 150 km, we spotted a dhaba where we had dinner, and stayed the night at the dharamshala next door.
At daybreak, we set out for Lucknow. It proved to be an easy and safe route, and we reached our next stop by 7 pm. We touched base at the Action Aid office, supporters for the trip. The next day was to be our first day of fund-raising. Though some were hostile to our cause, most at the Hazrat Ganj market were curious and some even contributed. The next day, we were back on the highway, headed for Patna. This stretch had some off-road riding in store for us. We were behind schedule, due to the repair stops, so we just stayed the night at Patna, leaving for Ranchi the next morning.
A splash of cold water woke me up the next morning, with Solomon deciding to take the last resort in the difficult task of getting me out of bed. The road was bad, as was the light, but we got some work in when we had to stop at a railway crossing. We gave out pamphlets, generating some excitement. We were warned not to ride at night, so we found hot food and khatiyas at a dhaba. The safety factor while travelling through Bihar was something we had been warned about. So we slept in shifts, though as the youngest of the group, I was instructed to get as much shut-eye as possible.
At 5 am, there was still a fair amount of fog, but we had a deadline to meet. Joys bike was giving trouble again, so he and Solomon had to stay back to get it fixed, while Chandan and I rode ahead to make it in time for a press conference at Ranchi. The others finally joined us in the evening, and we decided to get some rest and leave for Calcutta at 2 am. But a flat tyre held us up on the road again. By the time we hit BT Road, it was afternoon. We were cruising along, till the road suddenly narrowed to a single lane, where other drivers were merrily taking the wrong side!
With my A Level exams coming up, I could not continue with the group beyond this. So I headed back to Salt Lake, as the rest of the gang headed for Bhubaneshwar, an official photographer short.
But it had been quite a ride, under the shelter of the sky.
Screen time
Movies with a message was the motto at the fifth film festival organised by the Calcutta University Students Union Central Standing Committee from March 20 to 22 at Nandan. Pro vice-chancellor Suranjan Das, who inaugurated the event, stressed the need for screenings as a voice of protest against war.
The Nandan campus was teeming with students from various departments of the university to catch the action, including Mammo and Suraj ka Sathwa Ghora, Goopi Bhagha Phire Elo and Titash Ekti Nadir Naam. Documentaries such as My Lenin, Puruliar Chou and Nagarik and crowd-pullers like Deepa Mehtas Bollywood Hollywood shared screen space.
While union reps believe entertainment is a good way of promoting principles and ideologies, the students enthusiasm on getting a chance to see good cinema is what has kept the festival going into its fifth year.

Top grooming gear
The hall at the MDB Airport Hotel was filled to capacity. At some of the tables, executives in formals lent a business-meet look. But most of the chairs were filled by young things in T-shirts or tank tops.
Holding court at the soft skills workshop, organised by Aria Finishing School, was actress-VJ Ruby Bhatia. Do not get overawed by the status of the person you are speaking to. Treat them as equals, was her advice to the teens. Even Ruby got an attack of nerves on receiving an invitation to Pratiksha, the Big Bs home, for a Holi party. A senior artiste told me if I gush and gape like a fan, Bachchan saab would treat me like one. Instead, I should behave like a colleague in the industry, she recalled.
Then participants Priyam, a Class VIII student, and Sangeeta, a B.Com fresher, had the audience in splits with their enactment of a scene in an aircraft, where one passenger could not keep her mouth shut. It is also important to learn how to say no, added Ruby. Beauty tips and diet charts had the class buzzing with suggestions, followed by silence when all present were asked to list their own strengths and weaknesses.
For the diffident and the celeb-happy alike, the day-long course was a success. Enthused by the response, the finishing school is planning on holding such workshops more frequently.
Tribute to scholar
A national seminar on Thoughts and works of Gopinath Bhattacharya was organised by the department of philosophy, Jadavpur University, starting March 25. The two-day meet hosted delegates from across the country. The focus was the scholar and professors work in relation to individual enlightenment and rational development. Teachers from Calcutta University, Lady Brabourne College, Rabindra Bharati University and Madras University were among the speakers.
The philosophers students, many of whom have made a mark of their own, shared their memories of the legendary educator.

I am experiencing a very strange problem. Two users are not able to start clocks in Service Request Manager 7.2:
The displayed error "There's no labor associated with this username" .
I checked the vmmsync,and it is fetching the people/users records from our Active Directory Domain. They in turn, belong to their corresponding security groups. They have a labor associated with them and the labor has a correct skill record in both cases.
By comparing between one existing user and the new ones, it seems nothing is different.
What else should I check to solve my problem.
PS: We have the spanish version of the software, so the error above may not reflect the literal english sentence.

Copa del Rey Round-Up
By Simon Fudge
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
A weakened Real Madrid side were held to a 1-1 draw at third division side Ecija.
A weakened Real Madrid side were held to a 1-1 draw at third division side Ecija in the Copa del Rey.
The Santiago Bernabeu giants made the trip to Andalucia for their fourth round, first leg tie on Wednesday evening, as Real boss Fabio Capello gave David Beckham only his second start in eight matches.
Instead, Italian striker Antonio Cassano (pictured) found the scoresheet for Real on 66 minutes before Ecija struck a leveller through striker Nolito nine minutes from time.
Primera Liga champions Barcelona got a brace from Eidur Gudjohnsen (62, 76) to win 2-1 at third division club Badalona.
Pedro Tarradellas struck a late penalty for the home side ahead of the second leg at Camp Nou.
A brace from Miguel Angel Angulo gave Valencia a 2-1 first-leg win at another third division side in Portuense, who initially took the lead through Ocana.
A first-half strike from Blanco Kepa gave Sevilla a 1-0 win at Gimnastica Segoviana, while a Fabian Estoyanoff penalty (51) gave Deportivo La Coruna a 1-0 home win over Primera Liga rivals Racing Santander.
Pena Sport held Osasuna to goalless home draw, while holders Espanyol left it late to claim a 1-1 away draw at third division side Rayo Vallecano.
A Diego Torres penalty (42) gave Vallecano the lead before Luis Garcia equalised with a spot kick of his own in the last minute.
A strike from Alvaro Anton (69) gave Real Valladolid a 1-0 win over Gimnastic de Tarragona, while ten-man Hercules drew 1-1 with Real Zaragoza.
Juanlu (16) gave Hercules the lead before they were reduced to ten men when Redondo (66) was sent off.
Former Portsmouth man Andres D'Alessandro equalised two minutes later for Zaragoza.
Segunda Liga club Malaga took a firm grip on their fourth-round tie after a 4-1 first-leg home demolition of struggling Real Sociedad.
After Inigo Diaz de Cerio (8) gave Sociedad the lead, the Basque club lost Alvaro Novo to a second yellow card offence.
That allowed the Andalucians to open the floodgates, as goals from Anderson Silva (45), Ernesto (61), Vicente Valcarce (68) and Pedro Pinazo Perico (81) completed the rout for Malaga.
A Pablo Redondo penalty (74) and a strike from Sergio Pachon (76) gave Getafe a 2-0 win at Xerez, while Villarreal got goals from Nihat Kahveci (12) and Diego Forlan (24) to win 2-0 at Castellon.
Recreativo de Huelva held Andalucian rivals Real Betis to a goalless first-leg draw at the Nuevo Colombino, while Athletic Bilbao drew 1-1 at home with Real Mallorca.
Igor Gabilondo (12) gave Athletic the lead before The Islanders earned a first-leg draw at San Mames through Maxi Lopez (50).
On Tuesday evening, a goal from striker Nino gave Levante a 1-0 win at Atletico Madrid, while second division Alaves were held to a goalless home draw by 10-man Celta Vigo, who had Lopez Ruano Angel sent off.
The second leg ties are due to take place on November 8.

The base 2008 Honda Pilot has enough standard features to satisfy most; more expensive versions load up on all kinds of electronic extravagances.
The Pilot is available in four trim levels: VP, SE, EX, and EX-L. Standard equipment includes, but is not limited to: power windows and locks, manual front and rear air conditioning, remote keyless entry, machined alloy wheels, XM Satellite Radio, six-disc in-dash CD player, tilt steering wheel with audio controls, and cruise control.
Edmunds notes that stepping up to the EX brings a power-adjustable driver's seat, auto climate control, and HomeLink but not satellite radio. The SE slots between the EX and EX-L, and it's equipped with cloth seats, a sunroof, satellite radio, the DVD entertainment system, and a 115-volt power outlet on the front console. The EX-L adds leather, a sunroof, satellite radio, heated front seats, and either navigation or a DVD entertainment system, "but you can't get both." Mother Proof also mentions there's no auxiliary jack for an iPod.
ConsumerGuide has mixed feelings about the navigation system, which "is easier to learn and use than most, but its screen is small and the driver must stretch to reach the main toggle control."
Some reviews read by TheCarConnection.com are not fond of the tailgate, which lacks an opening glass partition, and the seat warmers that may not be powerful enough for everyone.

Last time, it was what to eat at a steakhouse. This week, it's Chinese food! Grab those chopsticks, everyone.
When Chinese food's in your dinner plans, it's particularly important to make sure you've had your eight glasses of water so your body is prepped to handle the high sodium content. And be sure to drink another liter after you've eaten, Bauer says, to help flush your system.
As for her go-to dish? "I like to stick with moo shoo chicken—steamed. I love it. I love its heartiness more than your traditional steamed chicken and broccoli," Bauer says. "I'll even add a little soy sauce—I think it makes it wonderful."
Remember: Use chopsticks. They force you to slow down just enough to recognize when you're full.

I'm getting my hair cut next week and I'm thinking about getting bangs. I'm pretty sick of my hair - I've had it this same way for years. It's very thick (which is why I almost always have it halfway up), curly/wavy and can get frizzy.
I'm thinking about getting side bangs but not sure about my face shape, etc.
Pictures (sorry about the circles under the eyes - I'm tired and it's late):
Any help is appreciated. :)
Most Helpful Girl
I think you should get side bangs. My hair is veryyy thick to, so I get it thinned out and it's so much easier to deal with and less frizzy. You should try that00|00|0

Dallas, Texas (PressExposure) October 24, 2009 -- Data presented today demonstrates that men taking Provailen for the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE) experienced some very significant improvements in sexual function, including ejaculatory control time extension, satisfaction with sexual partners, and increases in intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT)* . The FDA is currently reviewing a new product called Provailen, which if approved, would be the first product indicated for the treatment of PE.
RDK Pharmaceuticals have already taken up the production , marketing and distribution for this new premature ejaculaton product . Provailen is expected to be a very good investment for this pharmacy giant as many men suffer from PE, in recent studies even men without PE show an interest in prolonging their ejaculatory control . RDK Pharmaceuticals feels this will become a common product men want to use to have much great sexual control. This will be similar to the drug called Viagra, many men use Viagra as an enhancement medication and are perfectly healthy. According to the American Urological Association, premature ejaculation is one of the most common male sexual disorders. It is estimated that PE may affect 28 percent to 36 percent of men in all age ranges, in contrast to erectile dysfunction, which is estimated to affect 10 percent to 12 percent of all men. PE typically is a lifelong condition experienced from the beginning of sexual activity as a youth and continuing on to develop after years of satisfactory sexual activity. This is one of the main issues women complain about , Often women think the man is just interested in a quick release, when in fact studies show that a large percentage of men simply cannot control there ejaculation and reach climax within 30 sec to 2 min into the sexual act.
"The impact premature ejaculation has on men their partners often can be devastating for a relationship, currently there are no truly optimal therapies for PE," says Jon L. Pryor, M.D. chairman and program director of the Department of Urologic Surgery at the University of Minnesota .The results with Provailen are compelling. They demonstrate that, for the first time a medicine can be taken by men on an on-demand basis and provide significant improvement in their PE condition. Studies show if taken 30 min before sexual activity there is a significant increase in ejaculation time. This is a very unique opportunity to provide a product that can finally help eliminate the devastating issues that PE pose for men suffering from premature ejaculation. There are meaningful improvements in this study across all primary and secondary endpoints, including a three-to-four fold increase in IELT."
Phase III Trial Design and Results
The phase III clinical trials studied 2,873 men with PE aged 16 - 78 in monogamous sexual relationships of greater than six months, this group was chose to remove the extra excitement created by new sexual encounters. We required a solid base line for clinical study. PE was and is defined as persistent or recurrent ejaculation, much sooner than desired either before or shortly after penetration. Typically reflecting an IELT of 1.5 minutes or less, over which the sufferer has minimal or no control.
Men in the studies were randomized to receive 75 mg or 260 mg of Provailen over 10 weeks in identical, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trials. Patients were asked to take study medication one-to-two hours before intercourse. Participants had IELT within two minutes or less in at least 78 percent of intercourse reported by participants. The studies examined changes from baseline for mean IELT as monitored by a stopwatch; measured the men's ejaculatory control and sexual satisfaction. This was measured using a five-point scale from "very poor to very good" and measured the partner's satisfaction with sexual intercourse from "very poor to very good." The results showed the following:
* Men taking Provailen 75 mg and 260 mg experienced more than a three-to-four fold increase in mean IELT compared with placebo (P-value <0.0001 at 30 mg and 60 mg). IELT increased significantly with the first dose of provailen, and increases in IELT were maintained over the 10-week study period.
*The percentage of men rating control over ejaculation as "fair to very good" increased dramatically for Provailen 75 mg (4.7 % to 55.3 %) and 260 mg (4.9 % to 59.1 %) compared to placebo (1.5 percent to 12.2 percent).
*The percentage of men rating sexual satisfaction as "good to very good" almost doubled with Provailen 75 mg (23.7 % to 38.9 %) and 260 mg (25.4 % to 56.1 %), respectively, in comparison to placebo (12.6 % to 14.9 %).
*Percentage of partners rating sexual satisfaction as "good to very good" almost doubled with Provailen 75 mg (22.6 % to 42.9 %) and 260 mg (29.6 %to 56.3 %), respectively, compared to placebo (15.1 % to 21.3 %).
The study also found that Provailen was generally well tolerated, with most side effects of mild-to-moderate. The most common adverse events reported with both 75 mg and 260 mg doses of Provailen were nausea, followed by headache.
Premature Ejaculation (PE)
Although PE is one of the most common male sexual disorders, it remains widely under-diagnosed and under-treated. Most men are not willing to discuss this with their physicians and often spouses or sexual partners. Most physicians do not screen for PE , patients are extremely reluctant and embarrassed to talk about the condition. This is the primary reason for wide under-diagnoses for PE, with their partners or health care professionals. PE has a significant impact on many aspects of men's lives. It also greatly affects his partner's sexual satisfaction and ability to build and maintain relationships - both sexual and non-sexual - and this impacts a man's general sense of self-confidence, self image or worthiness in many cases.
A study published in the May 2005 issue of The Journal of Sexual Medicine, found that patient-reported outcome measures (PROs), such as control over ejaculation, satisfaction with sexual intercourse and distress are important factors in assessing the benefit of treatments for PE in clinical studies. The study found that men with PE and their partners reported a much higher ratings for interpersonal difficulty, lack of control over ejaculation and dissatisfaction with sexual intercourse. The females interviewed made strong comments about their sexual dissatisfaction. Many of the females stated they were considering divorce, received their sexual satisfaction from another lover. Only a relatively small amount of women actually stated it had little or no impact on their relationship of feeling toward their sexual partner.
* Intravaginal Ejaculatory Latency Time (IELT) - IELT was first introduced in 1994. It is used in clinical setting involving the study of premature ejaculation. A stopwatch may be operated by either partner and is activated when the male enters the female and stopped when a man ejaculates. The amount of time this process takes is known as intravaginal ejaculatory latency time or IELT. This technique is used to produce a base line and also to measure the effects or placebo effect during this study.
