			<title>USPS Hopes Summer Incentive Can Boost Flagging Ad Mail Volumes</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The US Postal Service is now inviting commercial mailers to take part in its hotly anticipated summer promotion, which offers a 2% postage discount for letters, flats and cards bearing barcodes suitable for reading by consumer smartphones.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		USPS is hoping the campaign can help to increase mail volumes during a traditionally low period of the year, after advertising mail volumes have so far this year been seeing a slowdown in the US, thanks in part to a &amp;ldquo;muted&amp;rdquo; economy.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The 2012 Mobile Commerce and Personalization Promotion follows up last year&amp;rsquo;s popular summer promotion, which also promoted the use of two-dimensional smartphone barcodes such as Quick Response (QR) codes.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		This year&amp;rsquo;s promotion will once again take place in July and August, with First Class Mail and Standard Mail letters, flats and cards eligible, including presort and automation mail.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>Post Office Hour Reductions, Called a &#8216;Win-Win,&#8217; Feel More Like a Lose-Lose</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Last week, the post office announced that rather than close thousands of rural post offices around the country to cut costs and reduce a ballooning deficit, it would drastically reduce hours at many of those locations. Some, in fact, would now be open for as little as two hours a day.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The postmaster general called the compromise a &amp;ldquo;win-win;&amp;rdquo; and Judy Stocker, president of the American Postal Workers Union told the Chattanooga Times Free Press, &amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s not the gloom and doom I was personally expecting.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		But it&amp;rsquo;s hard not to see this move as an act of desperation and Stocker&amp;rsquo;s resigned attitude as an indication of just how bad things really are. In fact, not even those trying to save rural post offices are portraying the compromise as a victory.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		For the last couple of years, 3,700 small-town post offices have been threatened with closure under a proposal, backed by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, to fix the grave financial situation of the postal service, which lost $3.2 billion in its most recent quarter. Without any reforms, the post office says it would lose $14 billion this year alone.&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>Losses Underscore Need for Legislation</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;
		USPS ended its second quarter with a net loss of $3.2 billion, compared to a net loss of $2.2 billion for the same period last year.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p sizcache=&quot;0&quot; sizset=&quot;2&quot;&gt;
		A statement issued by USPS said despite ongoing management actions that have improved efficiency, the losses will continue until key provisions of the Postal Service&amp;rsquo;s comprehensive &lt;em sizcache=&quot;0&quot; sizset=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://about.usps.com/news/national-releases/2012/pr12_0217profitability.pdf&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#0000ff&quot;&gt;five-year business plan&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt; move forward.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;
		The statement said losses are due primarily to legislative mandates such as the pre-funding of retiree health benefits and provisions that prohibit USPS from making needed operational and human resource changes.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;
		Also contributing to the continuing losses were declining First-Class Mail and Standard Mail volumes.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;
		&amp;ldquo;We are aggressively pursuing new revenue streams and reducing costs in areas within our control,&amp;rdquo; said PMG Patrick Donahoe. &amp;ldquo;The legislative changes outlined in our business plan will allow us to reduce annual operational expenses by approximately $22.5 billion by 2016 and set the stage for long-term financial stability so we can continue to provide secure, reliable and economical universal service to the American public.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;
		Postal Service actions to increase revenue continue to pay off in the shipping and package service lines of its business. But shipping revenue increases weren&amp;rsquo;t enough to overcome the decline in Mailing Services.&lt;/p&gt;

			<title>Postal Service Says It Will Exhaust Cash Without Help</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The U.S. Postal Service said it will temporarily run out of cash in October unless Congress allows cuts that include ending Saturday delivery and its requirement to pay for future retirees&amp;rsquo; health benefits in advance.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Most of the service&amp;rsquo;s $3.2 billion loss in the quarter ended March 31 came from a requirement to prepay the future health costs. Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe has said the service, which last made a quarterly profit in 2009, will become a taxpayer burden unless Congress answers its pleas to let it make cuts.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;ldquo;We cannot continue to run a business with a cash balance that&amp;rsquo;s expected to be zero,&amp;rdquo; Chief Financial Officer Joe Corbett said yesterday on a conference call with reporters, noting it would reach that point at the start of what&amp;rsquo;s historically the service&amp;rsquo;s strongest quarter. &amp;ldquo;We need to put ourselves on solid financial footing.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The 10th consecutive quarter of losses may spur the U.S. House to consider its version of legislation intended to overhaul the service, which is supposed to be self-sufficient. The Senate has passed a bill that didn&amp;rsquo;t give the service all the changes it requested, including permission to end Saturday delivery.&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>Postal Service Loses $3.2B in 2nd Quarter</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	Drowning in red ink, the U.S. Postal Service on Thursday reported a quarterly loss of $3.2 billion and blamed Congress for blocking the agency&#39;s cost-cutting efforts to offset declining mail volume and mounting costs for future retiree health benefits.
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		From January to March, losses were $1 billion more than during the same period last year. The mail agency said that without legislative action, it will be forced to default on more than $11 billion in health prepayments due to the Treasury this fall.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		The Postal Service is seeking new leeway from Congress to eliminate Saturday mail delivery and reduce health and other labor costs. The Senate last month passed a bill that would give the agency an $11 billion cash infusion and reduce the health payments while delaying a move to five-day delivery for two years; the House remains stalled over a separate bill allowing for far-reaching cuts.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>Mailers OK With USPS Rural Post Office Plan</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		At least one mailer group welcomed the U.S. Postal Service&amp;rsquo;s plan to reduce hours and services at rural post offices around the country.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;ldquo;The Direct Marketing Association is pleased that USPS has created a plan that would meet both the postal retail needs of Americans living in rural areas and the needs for mailers to eliminate excess capacity,&amp;rdquo; said Jerry Cerasale, senior vice president of government affairs. &amp;ldquo;We urge USPS to monitor implementation of the plan to insure that the estimated savings are realized.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Part of the USPS plan calls for keeping individual ZIP Codes and community identities intact even though post office hours and staff would be reduced.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		This scheme could conceivably help keep intact the USPS&amp;rsquo;s Every Door Direct Mail program which encourages small local businesses to use mail instead of electronic alternatives. In the past year, the postal service has made $153 million from this venture.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Mailers have long thought the USPS was oversized and inefficient.&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>Postal Service Mailing Services Prices to Change on May 11</title>
			<description>WASHINGTON &#8212; The Governors of the U.S. Postal Service have approved new prices for mailing  services, including a 2-cent increase in the price of a First-Class Mail stamp to 44 cents. Prices for mailing services are reviewed annually and adjusted each May. The new prices will go into effect Monday, May 11.     Customers can continue to mail letters at today&#8217;s prices by purchasing the Forever Stamp before May 11. Forever Stamps were developed to help consumers ease the transition during price changes. Forever Stamps do not have a denomination and will be honored whenever they are used with no need for additional postage for a one-ounce letter mailing. On May 11 the price of the Forever Stamp will be 44 cents.     The new prices are available at usps.com/prices.    Rising operational costs make the price adjustments necessary; the increase tracks the 2008 rate of inflation. The Postal Service is not immune to rising costs which are affecting homes and businesses across America today,...

			<title>History of PCC</title>
			<description>The Postal Customer Council (PCC) program began more than 30 years ago with the formation of local mail users councils. The Post Office Department organized the councils to improve communication between postal customers and local postal managers. The councils' rallying call was a &quot;Mail Entry&quot; campaign, designed to regulate the flow of local mail.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The concept of working with customers to get mail earlier in the day was realized through the Mail Early campaign and the creation of mail users councils, also known as &quot;Citizens Advisory Councils.&quot; The name &quot;Mail Users Councils&quot; lasted for nearly a decade until it was changed in 1971 to &quot;Postal Customer Council&quot;.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Once postal customers and local postal managers began working together under the council framework, both groups found that many problems could be resolved easily. The importance of postal customer councils has grown since the early 1970s. Through regular meetings, mailer clinics, and seminars, PCC members are kept abreast of the latest postal developments and work closely with local post offices to make mail services more efficient.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The Postal Service stands behind the PCC program, an important avenue for improving service and understanding mailers' needs.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Future of the PCC&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
The Postal Customer Council (PCC) will continue to grow and prosper by introducing the latest developments in the mailing industry to its members. This will be done through workshops, seminars, tours, tradeshows, etc and much more.
