We need collaborative workshops for professional development and to raise morale.Endowment support for collections care is exciting.We should become more media savvy , in part so we can move from being just a site for education to a destination , explained Steven Rothman , collector and businessman.Paul Steinke , executive director of the University City District , noted that several institutions at the meeting - - Fort Mifflin , The Atwater Kent Museum , Eastern State Penitentiary - - had done something interesting to " reinvent " themselves in the past five years.There are an infinite number of things that the attending institutions can do to move forward , but finite resources . " Within reason , " Sherrill replied.Ken McCoin , an economist at Houston Baptist University , said he had calculated that Carol Ernst 's economic losses from her husband 's death — his earning power since 2001 , health benefits and household services , such as chores — range from $ 212,486 through $ 327,247 . Some of these accounts depict modernism as springing up as if by magic - - from nowhere ( the Great War has been a great aid in justifying such originary narratives ) . Other accounts studiously contain the sprawling and unruly nineteenth century by displacing it : onto France , whose symbolist poets , impressionist painters , and experimental novelists can safely be seen as the respectably subversive ancestors of modernist innovation ; or onto fin-de-siecle British aestheticism , whose decadent writers , painters , and personalities broke with mainstream Victorian culture in ways that enabled modernism to make an even bigger break later on . The one-time $ 2.5 billion seller went on the market in 1999 and was taken by 20 million people when available to consumers.Carol Ernst alleges Vioxx triggered her husband 's death in his sleep just one month shy of their first wedding anniversary . Merck argues that excess weight and other cardiac risk factors , not Vioxx , caused Humeston 's heart attack.Merck removed Vioxx from the market a year ago after studies linked it to higher incidences of heart attacks and strokes.But in May 2001 , Merck issued a news release with the headline : " Merck Confirms Favorable Cardiovascular Safety Profile of Vioxx . We will round out our study of novel time machines with a look at Anthony Trollope 's defiantly present-centered blockbuster , The Way We Live Now ( 1875 ) , and we will conclude with a look at the slim , fin-de-siecle volume that formalized the nineteenth-century novel 's longstanding treatment of narrative as a form of time travel : H. G. Wells ' Time Machine ( 1898 ) . / / / / Last week , Merck 's lawyers presented evidence that the company studied whether Vioxx caused arrhythmias in nine clinical trials before the drug went on the market in May 1999 and found " no clinically meaningful differences " in patients who took the painkiller compared to those who took sugar pills or other anti-inflammatory pain relievers.But Mark Lanier , the Houston lawyer representing Carol Ernst , the plaintiff in the case , contends her husband , Robert , died too quickly for his heart to show damage . But three other plaintiff 's experts — a cardiologist and two medical professors — said Vioxx triggered Ernst 's death.Two other cardiology and pathology experts testified for Merck that Ernst died from clogged coronary arteries — one of which was blocked by up to 75 percent . In the bright June sunlight a crowd filled the square , and looked up at the windows of the old house with the antique insurance marks in its walls of red brick and the agents ' notice-boards hanging like wooden choppers over the paling . ATLANTIC CITY , N.J. ( AP ) Three years before it pulled Vioxx off the market , Merck & Co. publicly touted the safety of its arthritis drug in promotional campaigns and a news release , prompting a rebuke by federal regulators , according to documents shown to jurors Tuesday in a product liability trial over the drug.Jurors also saw excerpts of a study published by a U.S. Food and Drug Administration epidemiologist that said up to 140,000 Vioxx users suffered heart complications due to the drug while Vioxx was on the market between 1999 and 2004.The documents were shown in court on a day mainly focused on the combative cross-examination of a cardiology expert testifying for plaintiff Frederick " Mike " Humeston.Defending his opinions in a series of testy exchanges with Merck lawyer Stephen Raber , Dr. Benedict Lucchesi stood by his assertion that Vioxx — even if taken only once — could boost a person 's risk of heart attack or stroke . " Future Search is a dynamic , two-and-a-half-day planning meeting first developed in Philadelphia and used by groups around the world to transform and enhance an organization or community 's capability for cooperative action - - even if participants have had no prior contact and / or if they do n't typically work together . " Interpretation " of the built environment that they're seeing is still the missing link for most people - - and this interpretation should be social as well as architectural . He revolved it for some minutes , and then , remembering the success of his story of a sudden call to town , cut the knot of his difficulty with another lie . Wilde spent most of the performance backstage , but he was nevertheless dressed in what one biography called " the depth of fashion " : " his coat had a black velvet collar ; he carried white gloves ; a green scarab ring adorned one of his fingers ; a large bunch of seals on a black moir ribbon watch chain hung from his white waistcoat ; and , like the young men in the stalls , he wore lilies of the valley in his buttonhole . However , vigorous CPR conducted on Ernst - - including pounding on his chest that fractured some of his ribs - - probably dislodged the clot and his sudden death left no time for his heart to show damage , she said . Prouds - - Strong track record of funding to support preservation ; responsiveness to the community ; willingness to take risks ; that leaders of the philanthropic community are talking with each other . Attorneys are taking that kickoff to be the day Merck withdrew its $ 2.5 billion-a-year arthritis pill from the market , Sept. 30 2004.States with a one-year filing deadline include Kentucky , Louisiana and Tennessee , according to Cherry Hill lawyer Mike Ferrara , who filed 48 suits in time to make the Sept. 30 deadline.New York attorney Gary Douglas filed eight cases in New Jersey and 72 others in federal courts — which follow their states ' deadlines — under the wire.Seeger , Ferrara and Douglas said that given the huge backlog in New Jersey , Higbee — who is overseeing every New Jersey case — needs to assign some to other judges and Merck must agree to settle the bulk of them . Attorneys and New Jersey court personnel say many were filed because plaintiffs in a handful of states faced a deadline of one year from when Merck pulled the blockbuster painkiller from the market — Sept. 30 , 2004 — after research showed it doubled risk of heart attacks and strokes with long-term use.Some new cases were triggered by the huge Texas verdict , which will be slashed under that state 's caps on punitive damages , and other by lawyers hurrying up to file suits so they can get in line for an eventual jury trial or settlement , lawyers say . The key , of course , lay in his half-written novel - - or rather , in both Romillys , the I old and the proposed new one .
