Brands say goodbye to Mr and Mrs Average
4 August 2011Brands are making an effort to appeal to the widest possible market by making products accessible to everyone, in the health sector and general lines, writes Joanne Hunter.
Design is about people, not things: this is the mantra of New York agency Smart Design. For the past 30 years the company has specialised in designing products suitable for people of all abilities, including those with limited dexterity. Dan Formosa, one of its founders, and his director of brand communication Paulette Bluhm-Sauriol, explained to Packaging Today why brands increasingly are embracing inclusive design – or universal design, as it is known in the US.
"If we designed for the average we'd miss out half of the population. This approach can be a disservice to people on both sides of 'average'. Instead, we typically set out to understand the full spectrum of people who will come in contact with the things we design. The rejection of the 'average' consumer, in some business circles, is a radical concept – especially to groups within a company who have gone to great lengths to define their average consumer. While the average may be a marketing target (and we often question even its role in marketing), it should never be a design target.
"Average is not where good design is – it resides in the lives of individuals, addressing the personal needs and desires of a wide range of people," she said. "At Smart Design, we are seeing a change in requests from our clients. They used to ask us to design and develop a product or service. They are now, increasingly, asking us to help them understand their customers. The focus of design has changed, from product to person."
Lack of usability is a product fault. Every component included with the product, including all the packaging and labelling elements, contributes positively or negatively to overall usability.
"For example, for Cimzia, a rheumatoid arthritis pharmaceutical brand, we designed a home medication delivery system, which included delivery device and packaging designed as one experience that guides medication injection," explained Bluhm-Sauriol. "The limited-dexterity-friendly package unfolds like a medical kit displaying an easy-to-hold syringe with all supporting injection elements at the ready to guide injection, a quick step guide and tucked-in swabs. When complete, the delivery system folds up to be tucked away in the refrigerator for next time.
"In many product categories, usability, justifiably, becomes an overriding priority. In the medical field, technology has enabled a shift of what we call 'hospital-to-home'. That procedures performed at home need to be executed flawlessly by untrained people puts an emphasis on usability," she added.
University researchers in the UK are working on alternative packaging designs for prescription drugs because unsuitable packaging is contributing to poor patient compliance rates.
"Studies suggest that about half of all patients in the US do not take their medication properly," Dr Alaster Yoxall, from Sheffield Hallam University, told Packaging Today. "This is often because they encounter obstacles with packaging. Products can often be difficult to open or be poorly labelled.
"We have looked at ways of developing child-resistant packaging that still enable older people to gain access. Simple changes in geometry and shape can work effectively on the ability to access packaging, not just on medicines but food and toiletries too."
Despite tight industry regulation, pharmaceutical packaging has not developed as Dr Yoxall would have expected. Keeping out children is generally seen as a cognitive issue, but he argues that this approach can keep out some adults too. People will take between 12-20 seconds to open a blisterpack, any longer and they simply 'give up'.
"It wears people out, especially if they are ill," and so they may decant pills into bowls and other, unlabelled, packaging, adds Dr Yoxall.
'Socio-psychological' well-being is also a factor and it is estimated that a quarter of adults will suffer from dementia.
In Europe, blisterpacks are widely used, which Dr Yoxall says are not guaranteed child resistant and may have dexterity issues. He helped develop a test for comparing accessibility based on dexterity. The test was presented to the Design 4 Health conference at Sheffield Hallam that focused on how design can rise to the challenges of an ageing population. "We are really quite proud of the results, and all will be revealed in the coming months."
Is inclusive design an attractive commercial proposition?
"The big issue here is: Where's the cost benefit? It's been really difficult to prove the commercial proposition." But he thinks that Crown's new Orbit Closure for Duerr's jam jars may have moved on this conversation (see story below).
"Improving accessibility is a long, slow process. It is the 'elephant in the room'. The over-50s generation is growing in numbers and the fastest growing of all is the over-80s. It is a huge demographic change and the market has to respond," he said. Dr Yolland's accessibility test is also being used on other small packs.
Access to nutrition in small, single-serve packs is a particular problem. A study of hospital food, by the University of Wollogong in Australia, found difficulty with opening smaller packs was commonly experienced by patients – and 30% of hospital staff – with liquids especially hard to access. "Is this the case in the wider community?" wonders Dr Yolland. "We are moving into a challenging environment for packaging. The UK could get ahead on this; we are world leading on ageing research. This could be an opportunity for retailers and packers, I think."
There have been some moves in the right direction. Sanner, a German supplier of desiccant closures for the pharma and healthcare sectors, has introduced StripTech One, an easy to use, hygienic packaging system for blood-sugar test strips designed for home diagnostics. The opening prevents the removal of too many test strips and keeps the user's fingers out of the package. This reduces the risk of contamination or damage to the test strips, which can affect measurement accuracy. A recessed grip makes it easy to open and close the package with one hand. The locking mechanism ensures the top stays open while the test strip is being removed. And a flip-top cap means the user cannot lose or misplace it. In the open position, it reminds the user to close the top after the test strip is removed.
MEPs recently signed a declaration in the European Parliament to support accessible labelling. A 'milestone' for blind, deafblind and partially sighted people, it calls for a European Commission consultation on a proposed voluntary system of labelling in accessible formats.
"Deafblind people tell us that access to information is a huge barrier to their independence, and clear Braille labelling on product packaging will mean they can make more informed choices and safely use products in the home," says Sue Brown, head of public policy at Sense, a deafblind charity in the UK.
Surely, facing the truth that there is not – and never was – a Mr and Mrs Average will make a lot of people very happy, and the brands even more profitable.
Crown cracks it
Crown Closures Europe has worked magic with a jar closure acclaimed easy to open for almost everyone.
Seen for the first time on jars of Duerr's range of jams and marmalades, the new Orbit Closure could be a surefire way to build a loyal following for many more brands with produce in jars.
It consists of two parts: a central, floating panel that is vacuum sealed to the jar, and an outer ring that acts as the opening and re-closing device. Its design significantly reduces the torque required to remove the closure, making it twice as easy to open compared with standard twist-off closures – enhancing convenience for consumers of all ages. Available in both 63mm and 70mm diameters, it can be introduced without significant changes to existing lines.
To attract consumer attention, the label gives information about the opening sequence of the closure and directs consumers to Duerr's website, so they can provide feedback about the new packaging.
"Improving openability has been a goal of ours for quite some time, and the Orbit Closure is the first technology that really makes that possible," confirmed Richard Duerr, sales and marketing director at Duerr's.

Hello everyone,
as you have probably noticed, Version 3 of national football teams has gone online today. We are very proud of it, but a lot of things will probably not work right now. Please bear with us, and tell us anything that doesn't work or should be better on the forum or via e-mail.
It's been nine long years that we have been providing statistics on national teams, and we're still online. Quite an achievement, really. We have got a whole load of new features, we are finally starting to add match data and we've have got a huge statistics section for you to play around with. You can also like us on facebook, as you probably should.
So it's a very good day for the site, and I want to thank the programmers a lot, who have done a terrific job. Well they're still on the job, as of course not everything is working smoothly right now. I'd also like to thank all my co-workers, who do this for the glory alone. We don't earn any money, this is still a hobby that has gotten out of control, but we are still around and are actually doing quite a good job, I think.
Enough banter, enjoy the new site!

Even urban dwellers jaded by the constant sight of spray-painted buildings will admire the roundup of street art from the world over.

100 days after birth, San Diego panda gets name
SAN DIEGO (AP) — There is a new little gift at the San Diego Zoo that's going to get very big.
The zoo's youngest giant panda was officially named Xiao Liwu (ZHEE'-ow LEE'-woo), Chinese for "little gift," at a ceremony Tuesday. He is on the small side, but is strong and cooperative, said Dr. Ron Swaisgood, a member of the zoo's panda team.
The cub was born on July 29 and was named 100 days after its birth, according to Chinese zoo tradition. Officials said the cub weighs 9.2 pounds and stretches more than 23 inches long from nose to tail.
Zoo officials got 7,000 suggested names, chose their top six and put them up for a vote. More than 35,000 zoo visitors voted on names that meant Little Gift, Miracle, Raindrop, Big Ocean or Big Sea, Brave Son and Water Dragon.
Xiao Liwu's mother is Bai Yun (bye-yuhn) which means White Cloud and father Gao Gao (gow-gow), which means Tall Tall. The cub is Bai Yun's sixth. She turned 21 in July, making her the oldest giant panda known to give birth.
Through participation in a panda exchange breeding program with China, researchers "have gone from zero to 100 overnight in understanding the species," Swaisgood said. That's very beneficial for conservation because "it's hard to conserve what we do not understand."
He called the panda the world's "best loved species."
Before the program, the future of the species was bleak, he said, because the death rate exceeded the birth rate. But in 2010, "we met the 200 individuals needed to preserve the genetic diversity of the species," Swaisgood said to applause from the audience.
Swaisgood described efforts by scientists in China to track wild pandas. A wild panda will leave about 50 droppings a day, he said, and scientists can learn a lot from that, including information about DNA, hormones and diet.
Swaisgood said those taking part in the breeding program have done a good job. Continued...
"There is a feeling of hope that things are turning around for the species and it has a brighter future than it did 20 years ago," he said.

Pull Request
In this topic it was brought up that style authors are limited to using only the language entries provided in the core installation.
This prevents the inclusion of new style-specific sections (such as a Quick Links menu). Currently, they can just use an image (to prevent getting denied for using Hard Coded language text), but there is an RFC to remove imagesets (for language-specific images) in 3.1.
As such, there arises a need for styles to be able to include their own language variables so that they can include new style components easily.
There are two main ways I see of implementing this, (extact file naming/structure is up for discussion):
- Put the file in the language directory (such as language/en/style/prosilver.php or language/en/style_prosilver.php)
- Upside, language files stay together
- Downside is that the style isn't just one nice directory to download and upload into the styles/ folder.
- Put language file in styles directory (such as styles/prosilver/lang/en.php) Update: This is the preferred method.
- Upside, style files are all contained in their style directory
- Downside, language files are no longer all in the language/ directory.
In either case there would need to be changes in the language system to have it search for files automatically in whichever location is chosen. if the file doesn't exist for the current language, default to board default. If no file exists, just don't include one.
Ideas? Thoughts? Things I missed?

Champs Restaurant in Laurinburg got a mention in Newsweek magazine for its recent marquee critical of President Barack Obama.
In a Sept. 3 issue of the national news weekly, writer Peter J. Boyer penned a piece about how moderate Democrats fare in the national Party. The article was called Why Barack Needs Bill.
The article mentions 8th District Congressman Larry Kissell as an example of "a vanishing breed—a white Southern Democrat—whose political life would be easier with a centrist in the White House."
The magazine says the problem for Democrats like Kissell is that the party has come to be defined by its Washington players, like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, rather than by moderates like former President Bill Clinton.
"… despite the best intentions when a guy or a woman gets there as a so-called moderate, they're either forced to be with the Republicans, as part of a very small group [of defectors], or they're forced to be with the Democrats and the big group, and that kills you back home."
While Kissell has tried to focus on his record of independence, he may also have to contend with a district feed up with all Washington politicians, Newsweek said.
The magazine added that Kissell does not like talking about what he calls "Washington issues," and avoids mentioning Obama by name.
"He will not be able to avoid the subject of Obama as he campaigns in his district," the article said. "When he travels to the town of Laurinburg, for example, Kissell may notice the sign outside Champs Restaurant, expressing a sentiment widely held by small business owners across North Carolina, and beyond: "Mr. President, we built our business and paid taxes for roads and services."
Champs put up the message after Obama gave a speech earlier this year talking about the interdependent nature of government and successful businesses. The message stayed up for about two weeks before being changed.
Restaurant owner Ron Riggins said he wanted to express the frustration that business owners have with politicians.
"I don't know a small business owner who isn't struggling," Riggins said. "And politicians at every level don't seem to be making things any easier."
Riggins said he is proud that his message is getting national exposure.
"I think that is is great to be mentioned in Newsweek," Riggins said. "There was some question as to whether people notice the sign. This is a good case-in-point that people do read it."
The entire article can be found in the Sept. 3 issue of Newsweek magazine. It can also be found online at www.dailybeast.com

Wayfinding system inspired by the communicative and deconstructive elements of murals. Each neighborhood is represented with a set of materials and patterns based off the architecture and structures of the neighborhood, along with a color.
Aimed at both tourists and residents (who are often like tourists once out of their own neighborhoods) alike, Local Color aims to highlight the structures and elements of the neighborhoods that people take for granted and foster a deeper appreciation for them, while helping guide through the city.
The system includes informational panels located by T stations to orientate and introduce people to the city and the system, informational kiosks, mural installations at various landmarks, and redesigned crosswalks and sidewalk graphics, along with a mobile app, website, and advertising campaign.

A few gray hairs ago, I worked in the Capital Markets Group at Raymond James. For almost 10 years, I helped numerous companies raise capital through initial public offerings and follow-on financings involving both debt and equity.
I changed gears in the mid-90s when I became the CFO of a micro-brewery chain headquartered in Chattanooga. Although moving into the restaurant sphere was a shift for me, my experience in the financial industry served me well as I navigated the ins and outs of growing what became a $90 million company. In spite of my capital markets experience – or perhaps, because of it – I always hired an advisor when the company was positioned to make an acquisition.

text: The Ministry of Fisheries is urging shellfish gatherers to learn the rules before they go fishing and to keep to those rules. Field Operations Manager Greg Keys says the bag and size limits for shellfish are there to protect the resource for now and into the future. "We know that the vast majority of fishers honour the size and bag limits and understand why they are in place," he says. "However, it appears that a small minority of those who gather shellfish do not respect these limits. "Instead, they greedily plunder the shellfish beds, selfishly taking far more than their fair share. "This can have a devastating effect on shellfish beds and can rob other members of the community of their right to collect a legal limit." Mr Keys says several Auckland area beaches have already had to be closed because of over-fishing. "These once productive beds are now barren and the local communities have lost a valuable source of fresh seafood." Mr Keys says the Ministry is working very hard to protect the area's existing shellfish beds. "Those setting out to break the law should realise that most of their fellow gatherers will not condone their plundering of the shellfish beds. "We can't do it all on our own, I urge anyone who sees any suspicious or illegal fishing to phone the 0800 4 POACHER number (0800 4 76224) as soon as they can. This gives us the best possible chance of catching the offenders in the act and protecting the resource." Those caught with excess or undersized shellfish can face Infringement Notices of $250 or $500. In more serious cases, they can face prosecution, fines of up to $250,000 and forfeiture of any equipment (including vehicles and vessels) used to commit the offence.

Essential information for the expedition - daily schedule, research area details, project conditions etc.
This project also offers standard teams.
How are Earthwatch teen teams different?
The removal of apex predators like sharks is one of the most prevalent and devastating human impacts on earth's marine ecosystems. Overfishing and the use of indiscriminate, destructive fishing gear like gillnets is far-reaching. Sharks are becoming increasingly rare throughout most of the Belize Barrier Reef and this decline presents a major ecological and economic problem for Belize.
We know very little about the specific roles of sharks in Caribbean coral reef ecosystems, but current models and theories suggest that their loss causes ripple effects throughout local food webs and could lead to reef collapse.
With sharks and reef systems under similar threats worldwide, there's an urgent need to develop a better understanding of the roles sharks have within reef ecosystems and whether protected reef areas are effective in helping populations recover. A goal of the project is to better describe the niche of the dominant shark species on the Belize Barrier Reef, including Caribbean reef, nurse, Caribbean sharpnose, great hammerhead, blacktip, lemon, silky, night and tiger sharks. Since no studies of shark abundance have ever been conducted before and after the establishment of a marine reserve in Belize, we have a rare opportunity - with your help - to significantly improve the management of these protected areas by observing their impact.
This opportunity is especially significant for Belize, where ongoing efforts to build a comprehensive network of marine reserves take place against a backdrop of increasing shark exploitation. Although Belize has 13 marine protected areas, not all of them include no-take marine reserves and several of them still allow longline and gillnet fishing for sharks inside or very near their borders. Showing whether and how the marine reserves in Belize are useful for shark conservation will be decisive in consolidating the existing marine reserve network and improving it over time. Working closely with local partners in the Wildlife Conservation Society-Belize and providing data to Belize's Fisheries and Tourism Departments, as well as the Association of Protected Area Management Organizations, the scientists working on this project will be able to use your efforts to bring about real improvements in shark and reef conservation.
You'll assist with the deployment, recovery, and maintenance of hook-and-line shark fishing gear in various locations at the Glover's Reef study site, as well as in the measurement of associated environmental data like water quality, salinity, and pH. You'll help the researchers tag, take tissue samples from, and release captured sharks. (All sharks are firmly secured to the side of the research vessel prior to data collection and are kept in the water for the whole procedure. Volunteers will be involved with all facets of this process except the securing and final release of the animal, which will be carried out by experienced staff.) You'll also help collect shark tissue samples within several different habitats, from local fishermen's catches, and from your own handline fishing and seine-netting. You will also conduct snorkel surveys to record habitat type, as well as abundance and diversity of coral and fish species. This data on the status of the reef will be collected for each site where a video is deployed, to allow comparisons between different habitats.
You'll have opportunities to interact with tourists and Belizeans throughout the project to help assess their attitudes toward sharks, reefs, and marine reserves, helping produce, distribute, and score written questionnaires and add them to the database. You may also help transcribe video interviews.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My friend is getting treated with proton therapy. What is the difference between that and regular radiation? Is it better?
Neha Vapiwala , MD, Senior Editor of OncoLink and Chief Resident in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Proton beams are considered a form of particle therapy and a way of delivering external beam radiation therapy. So-called "regular radiation" is also external beam radiation that consists of high-energy x-rays rather than particles. The main difference protons and X-rays is a physical one: X-rays used in cancer therapy are electromagnetic waves that are highly penetrating, and will deliver dose throughout any volume of tissue irradiated, regardless of thickness. So x-rays tend to deliver substantial doses of radiation both on the way in and on the way out on the way to the tumor volume. Unlike with X-rays, the absorbed dose of a proton beam increases very gradually as it travels through the body, and then suddenly peaks at the end (this is known as the Bragg Peak). A proton beam can be directed so that the Bragg Peak occurs inside the tumor volume, something that cannot be done with X-rays. As a result, the dose around the tumor volume is much less than the tumor itself. Side effects, both acute and long-term, can thus possibly be reduced with proton beams due to the sparing of normal tissues that are situated around the tumor. Ultimately this depends on the type, size and location of the tumor, and proton therapy is not appropriate or preferred for all patients.
For your reference, we have lots more information on OncoLink.

SAT reading scores are the lowest they've been in 40 years
By Alexander Abad-Santos
The Atlantic Wire
Coming in with an average SAT reading score of 496, 2012's graduating seniors have the dubious distinction of having attained the worst reading score since 1972. (For those test-takers of a certain age and test-taking history, "reading" is actually that part we knew as "verbal.") Regardless of what you call(ed) it, "The average reading score for the Class of 2012 was 496, down one point from the previous year and 34 points since 1972," reports the Washington Post's Emma Brown, gleaning numbers from the College Board, the organization that administers the test.
What's troubling beyond the low average score is that seniors' scores in "writing," a section related to "reading" and for most of us, life in some way or another, also dropped—to 488—a decrease of nine points since the College Board started testing for it in 2006. So what gives? Are future generations illiterate? Is the SAT too hard? As Po Bronson wrote for the Daily Beast in 2009, "It's commonly said that the SAT, taken in a senior year of high school, has only about a 40 percent correlation with a student's freshman year college GPA."
That line of thinking implied by that statement is that numbers are just numbers, to some extent, and not predictors of future successes, necessarily. They are general predictors of who will get into which colleges, though, and Bronson goes on to defend the SAT, writing, "I've always had a skeptical feeling about the 40 percent correlation statistic, and so I've never relied on it or used it in print."
Brown writes that the reading scores may have been affected by minority test takers, who came out and took the test in record numbers: "The declining national reading averages may in part reflect the ever-widening pool of students who take the SAT, first administered in 1926 to a few thousand college applicants." She continues, "More than 1.66 million graduating seniors last year took the test, the highest number in history.
Nearly half were minorities and about a quarter reported that English was not exclusively their first language. More than a quarter of public school test-takers — 27 percent — had family income low enough to qualify for a fee waiver, and more than a third — 36 percent — reported that their parents had not gone to college."
More kids taking the SAT is probably a good thing, though the sweeping assumption that minority test takers are naturally worse than their non-minority counterparts at the "reading" section doesn't tell the entire story, either. As Bronson wrote, "It's still worthwhile to explore why people succeed, both at school and in real life." The reverse is true, too.
