VB: North Carolina Sweeps No. 23 Miami
Posted November 2, 2012
Chapel Hill, N.C. — North Carolina rolled over No. 23 Miami Friday night with a 3-0 sweep (25-18, 25-16, 25-18) at Carmichael Arena. Senior Emily McGee finished with double-digit kills (10) and digs (17) to lead the Tar Heels, who improved to 20-4, 11-3 with the win.
"What a great match we played tonight," Carolina head coach Joe Sagula said. "We had really inspired play tonight, and we kept our focus throughout the night against a really good Miami team, one of the top in our conference. This shows the improvements we've made and where we've come from. We need to continue this kind of play at this level and at this time of the season."
"What I really liked tonight is that we made some great things happen on defense. I think our defense really supported our offensive play, which looked really sharp. You see all the kills from Adkins, McGee and Berringer, but I think a big reason for that is Schnabl and Harms set a great match," Sagula said.
The Tar Heels took the opening set 25-18 behind a strong .429 team attack. Sophomore Lauren Adkins tallied five kills, and senior Emily McGee had four digs and an ace for UNC. Sophomore Chaniel Nelson added four kills and a dig, while junior Kayla Berringer, senior Tia Gaffen and freshman Paige Neuenfeldt each recorded a block.
UNC kept up the momentum going into the second set, taking the frame by a 25-16 margin. McGee had six kills and seven digs, while Berringer added four kills, three digs and two blocks for the Tar Heels. Sophomore Ece Taner had six digs, and Gaffen recorded another two blocks. For the second straight set, UNC kept Miami below a .100 attack as the Hurricanes hit .045.
Adkins again led Carolina in the third frame, recording five kills and an ace to help give UNC the final 25-18 win. Berringer, Neuenfeldt and McGee each had four kills, while McGee and Taner had six digs apiece as the Tar Heels hit a dominant .432 through the set.
The last time UNC swept the Hurricanes was at home in 2010 (25-21, 25-17, 25-21). With Friday's win, Carolina is now 11-0 at home heading into Saturday's match against No. 11 Florida State at 5 p.m.
Admission is free for all UNC volleyball matches, and Saturday's match will be Carolina Kids Club night at Carmichael Arena.

Topic: Newly diagnosed in South GA
My mom was just diagnosed within the past few weeks, so it's all very new to us. She turned 70 yesterday! She is in the hospital. Her bilirubin is down to 5 from 9 - - is that good? She had 2 stents inserted a week earlier and ended up with an infection and high fever - that's the reason for the hospital stay. Today is day 5. Many tests, many xrays, many prayers already and many yet to come, I'm sure. The Dr. here is going to refer her to Mayo in Jacksonville, FL Palliative treatment is all that seems to be available to her. It is inoperable having reached her liver & lymphnodes already. Does anyone have any opinion of Gemcitabine chemotherapy? Please share any information you have. Thank you.

I have twin baby girls. They have 4 month age. How can I change their sleeping schedule. All the day, they sleep but when I go to sleep, they awake and start crying. Is there any method to change their schedule.
I have twin baby girls. They have 4 month age. How can I change their sleeping schedule. All the day, they sleep but when I go to sleep, they awake and start crying. Is there any method to change their schedule.
The best thing you can do is follow their schedule until they adjust. They are too little for much else, though gentle encouragement would include keeping up with a routine. Breakfast at 9, lunch at noon, bath at 7- that kind of thing, so they learn what to expect from each day.
They will grow out of this phase in time.
Angela definitely touched on something when she mentioned a gentle routine. Personally, I never put any of my babies on a schedule, but that's just my temperament. I'm not a "routine" or "scheduled" person myself, though I do know that children thrive on routine. I made effort to always be home in the afternoon for nap time, and to run my errands in the morning - so I had a little "routine" but not a lot.
At 4 months of age you can start to put the babies on a routine if you want to. This means that a very basic routine would be upon awakening, they have their diaper changed, then eat (maybe another diaper change), then play time where you put them down on an activity mat or have your 3 year old talk to them or dance for them or do something to entertain them. You will know when they are getting tired again, and at that time it may be time again for another feed and then nap, and then the routine starts over again.
If you are sure to give them play time during their "awake" time between naps during the day, they will be more likely to sleep at night.
For nighttime, I would encourage you to make night time dark and quiet. This means no TV, and no lights when the babies wake up to be fed. If you need a little light for a diaper change, just put a very low light on the changing table. I've used a flashlight and sometimes covered the flashlight with a cloth to keep the light low. If there is too much light, the babies' circadian rhythm will be disrupted and they will think it's day time.
You should be able to get one 4 hour "stretch" a day, where the babies go between feeds for 4 hours. Other than that, if you are breastfeeding, they may need to be fed every 2 hours. When you have twins, it makes it much harder for you to get your rest, so I would encourage you to try to feed them both at the same time and then put them back to bed (or in a swing so you can get your rest - my babies definitely slept in the swing sometimes when I needed my sleep).
And make sure you rest during the day when the babies are sleeping. You can have your 3 year old take a rest too, or look at books quietly in her bed so you are sure to get enough rest.
Hope this is helpful.
Warm Regards,
A bit like Kate I don't adhere to the notion of routines as such with little babies but both my girls tended to be wakeful during the day and sleep well at night so my situation was very different.
Dessy and Kate are certainly right that creating a restful atmosphere at night is important, but if your babies have slept all day and aren't tired, it probably isn't going to have too much effect. Going to lengths to keep your babies a bit more active during the day might help. Get them outside on a mat - lots of fresh air and exciting sites (which at 4 months is basically anything new) certainly helps to keep babies awake for longer stretches.
We have to keep in mind that in the womb all babies are a bit nocturnal. This is because the movement of your body as you move around during the day creates a comforting rocking which encourages baby to sleep. By the time you lay down at night they are awake and kickety-kicking - a phenomenon many women will attest to!
While here on the outside we expect babies to sleep at night the reality is that it can take quite some time for them to move to this rhythm. In the meantime, it is important to work with them not against them. As Kate suggests make sure you take a nap during the day.
If you are worried your three year old is likely to get up to mischief, consider some care options - daycare or family daycare if the budget allows, or the help of a willing friend or family member that can take you daughter out for a few hours or just be in the house while you sleep to supervise. Don't overlook other Mum's who might enjoy having a playmate for their child for a few hours.
Remember this faze like all others will pass! In the meantime you might like to read this article: Getting a Good Night's Sleep- another perspective
Hello - I have a question related to this thread, but not exactly about babies waking up at night. I am wondering if I should be waking up my baby in the morning? I have an almost 5 month old and she settles down for the night quite late (11ish), but then can sometimes sleep in until 10 or 11 in the morning (with a few feeding breaks). She also naps later in the day and I let her sleep without waking her up.
Since I will be returning to work soon, I am eager to (gently) introduce an earlier sleep schedule. Any advice out there from seasoned mums on how to adjust sleep times?
Hi Dee,
Most babies of this age will sleep for around 12 hours at night and then may have around an extra 3 hours of nap time in the day. What is important is that the baby gets enough sleep overall rather than the way in which the sleep and nap time is proportioned.
In the No Cry Sleep Solution, Elizabeth Pantley talks about gentle ways to help your baby to sleep well at night-time. Pantley specifically talks about routines and the timings of the day. You may want to have a read of this book - it is not too strict on routines and is certainly baby-led but does give some helpful ideas. In terms of your question, Pantley suggests that to change the routine of babies who go to sleep late and then get up late it is best to just jump in and start the next day with putting them to sleep aiming to get them to sleep at 7pm. It may take a couple of weeks for your daughter to adjust to but Pantley writes about how this is easier for a baby to adjust to then bringing the time back gradually each night over a period of weeks.
Do you have a bed-time routine? This would really help. You could start it around 1 and a half hours before bedtime and include things like: quiet stories and songs, lots of cuddles, bath, baby massage, milk etc. If your daughter naps very late in the day then she may find it hard to go to sleep for 7pm ish. Therefore, you could also try to encourage her to nap earlier. If she has two naps she could have one around 1 hour and a half after she has got up and the other around lunchtime.
My first son was like your daughter and we used to just go to bed with him (at about 10.30pm) and then myself and him wouldn't get up until late morning. However, there came a time (I think when he was around 16 months old) when he made it clear he wanted to go to bed earlier so we just started putting him down for 7pm and now he almost always goes to bed at this time.
When will you be returning to work? How many hours/ days a week will you work? Are you breastfeeding? Have you thought about expressing?
Warm wishes,
Hi Dee,
It should be fairly easy to transition your 5 month old to going to bed earlier and waking earlier. One of the easiest ways to do this is to start putting your daughter down 15 minutes earlier each night (this is also a good way to help train yourself to start going to bed earlier).
If you do this, your child will start to wake up earlier automatically as you adjust the time she goes to sleep at night.
After 4 nights, she will be going to bed at 10pm. After 8 nights she will be going to bed by 9pm and after only 12 nights she will be going to bed by 8pm.
Hope this helps.
Warm Regards,
Hello. My 2 years old girl usually gets up at 10 am, than has a 3 hour long nap between 3 an 6 pm. Now, you can imagine that she has a lot of energy and we go to bed at midnight. What should I do, to make her sleep at 9-10 pm? It's too long for me to stay up till midnight.
Hello Jasmin,
It's really important that your daughter (and you) get your rest during the dark hours of the night, and get your "awake" time during the daylight hours of the day. The sun actually helps our bodies to regulate body temperature and hormones that are extremely important for health. The optic nerve in the eye allows light to travel to the SCN (Suprachiasmatic Nucleus) which signals our internal clock and tells us that it is time to be awake. The SCN also sends signals to other parts of the brain and this is how body temperature, hormones and other functions are regulated.
It's best to sleep in a room that is very dark, but also it's important to have enough sun coming in, in the morning, that the body naturally wakes. For example, I have black out blinds on the two windows in my bedroom which makes it really dark at night. But I keep the door to the bathroom open, and the little window in there does not have any blinds on it. This way, when the sun comes up in the morning, the light will trigger an awake cycle in my body, and I naturally wake up without an alarm.
To help your daughter to start waking up when the sun comes up, you can start putting her to bed 30 minutes earlier each night, and moving her nap time up 30 minutes.
Example -
Monday: To bed at 11:30pm, wake her up at 9:30am (if she doesn't awaken on her own) and put her down for a nap at 2:30pm.
Tuesday: To bed at 11:00pm, wake her up at 9:00am and put her down for a nap at 2:00pm
Wednesday: To bed at 10:30pm, wake her up at 8:30am and nap at 1:30pm
Thursday: Bed at 10:00pm, up at 8:00am and nap at 1:00pm
Friday: Bed at 9:30 pm, up at 7:30am and nap at 12:30pm
Saturday: Bed at 9:00pm, up at 7:00am and nap at noon
Now - you may want to start moving her bed time back and shortening her nap time which would look like this:
Sunday: Bed at 8:30pm, up at 7:00am and nap from 12-2:30
Monday: Bed at 8:00PM, up at 7:00am and nap from 12:00-2:00
Of course you can even put your daughter to bed earlier (some families put their 2 year olds to bed at 7:00 or 7:30) - it will all be dependent on how tired she gets and how much time you want to yourself in the evening. This will also help you to get more sleep before midnight, which is important. If you can get to sleep by 9:00 or 9:30 each night, you will feel much more rested in the morning and have more patience and energy for the day.
You will also want to be sure your daughter is getting plenty of exercise during the day. LJ has great ideas for how to help toddlers to get the exercise they need each day
Please post back with any challenges or successes you have as you start to transition your daughter to a better sleeping routine. We're here to help.
Warm Regards,
Thank you. I will try your schedule idea this week. Let's see if it works.
Dear Jasmin,
I see you have had some super advice from Kate. I agree that it is wise to gradually get your daughter into a better routine for her. Have you heard of the phrase 'sleep breeds sleep'; good naps and sleeping well at night time will help your daughter to sleep better overall. Without this, children can become long term over-tired and may miss out on enjoying activities to the full in the daytime.
Having a good, consistent bedtime routine should also help with this. For example, quieter play then a bath and a story before bed each day. You need a bedtime routine that you both enjoy and look forward to.
As Kate says, helping your daughter to be as active as possible in the daytime is also very important at this age. Playgrounds and country parks are excellent for this. You could create a treasure hunt for your daughter in a country park (e.g. she has to spot different wildlife and answer simple questions about their habitat as you walk and run). I always find that when my children are around their friends they naturally run, jump and play and end up using lots of energy in the process. Try to arrange to meet friends with similar age children a few times a week; you could explore forests together or plan a trip to a beach.
If you and your daughter are that way inclined, there are also lots of 'organised' sporting activities for little ones. Often you have to pay for these but you could consider; football for toddlers (yes, it exists), soft play, swimming lessons, toddler gymnastics etc.
Is there a 'toy library' near you? We have one near us and it is excellent. Not only can we go there once a week to play with the toys (inside and outside) you can also hire a toy every week. This saves us money and is also a great way to try out trikes, bikes, slides, small ball pits etc.
Actually, even on a rainy day you could put on a nursery rhyme cd and dance around the living room. We often make up fun games involving make-shift obstacle courses on very rainy days or dancing and jumping games. A walk in the rain in lots of fun too!
I hope all this helps you.
Best wishes,
I fell very lucky, reading your comments. It's way much better than reading a book. I am going to search a toy library, hope to find one.Thank you very much
Thank you for your kind comment Jasmin.
I hope you find tonnes of creative and interesting resources near to you,
Please do post back if you need any further ideas or inspiration.
Best wishes,
Hi Jasmin,
How are you doing with transitioning your daughter to going to bed earlier in the evening? We're here to encourage and support you. Have you started the transition yet? How is it going?
I tried, but it's still not working. Now she falls asleep at 1 a.m.)) but I don't give up. I know that my daughter needs more time, to get used.

Should Grandparents & Extended Family Attend the FIRST National Conference?
At some point in their journey with ichthyosis, individuals and parents with affected children will need assistance, both physically and emotionally, from someone other than their medical practitioner. In difficult times, a reprieve from the day-to-day, a shoulder to lean on, or simply a trustworthy listener, can truly be a life-saver. More often than not, this type of support comes from extended family. And although it can be stressful, turning to family in these types of situations may not only be therapeutic, but can create unbreakable bonds for parents, grandparents, and siblings.
Perhaps you are the grandparent, aunt, uncle, or sibling of an individual affected with ichthyosis, and are contemplating whether or not to attend the upcoming 2016 FIRST National Conference in San Diego? Over the years we have met countless individuals who were contemplating this very same decision, many of whom ultimately decided it was best to attend the conference, not knowing really what to expect, or if they would gain any benefit at all.
Mary and David Cina, grandparents of Myles and Portia Cina, affected with ichthyosis en confetti said, "We attended and will continue to attend FIRST conferences to support our son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. We have learned a lot and enjoyed meeting other families, learning their challenges, and how they have dealt with them. The doctors provide a wealth of knowledge and are very approachable, willing to help and teach all attendees." (The Cina Family pictured left)
Chrissy See, a sibling of member Rachel See, also affected with en confetti ichthyosis, not only attended the conference in 2014 in Indiana, but played a pivotal role in helping to gather items for the conference fundraising raffle. "My family has always been a huge inspiration, and recently my friends, respected colleagues, and even "strangers" have become my new source of inspiration for my involvement with FIRST. In fact sharing on our company community webpage to 200 work friends created generous donations and support. FIRST conferences are a special opportunity for me to learn and grow from others. Awareness is the first step to curing ichthyosis and I am inspired by others to take that next step for my family." (Chrissy See pictured right).
And Kellie Wilson, sister of Shannon Hamill, and aunt of Lauren Hamill affected with harlequin ichthyosis, has been by her family's side since day one. " My niece Lauren was born with harlequin ichthyosis. Two words no one in my family had ever heard before. Now the word ichthyosis has become familiar to me and my family and it is not as scary anymore, thanks to the FIRST National Conferences. It was comforting knowing that they were not alone and that there was a whole community out there for them to learn from and to share their stories with. The first time in Chicago I was there as more of a supportive role. I wanted my sister and her husband to attend as many discussions as possible without having to worry about Lauren. However, this will be my third conference (referring to the 2014 National Conference, Indianapolis), and I am looking forward to seeing everyone again. "
Although there are numerous opportunities for networking and education at the family conference, in the end, it seems that sometimes simply "being there" for a family member may just be the most meaningful kind of support you can give. (Kellie Wilson, Shannon Hamill, Kelly Klafter pictured left).

London Welsh second row Kirill Kulemin may be hoping for the perfect birthday present with a win against Stade Francais on Saturday, but he knows better than most the Exiles will be up against it.
Kulemin, who joined Welsh in the summer after four seasons in the Top 14 at Castres, turns 32 on the day head coach Lyn Jones leads his men into Europe for the first time against the two-time Heineken Cup finalists.
The big Russian second row, capped 12 times by his country, has featured in all six of London Welsh's opening Premiership fixtures, including last Sunday's narrow 28-23 defeat to Saracens.
Kulemin spent four seasons at Agen before joining Castres in 2008 and amassed 23 appearances in the Heineken Cup and Amlin Challenge Cup during his eight years in France.
And he is relishing the chance to lock horns with Stade once again.
"If we win it will be a good present for my birthday. Maybe I'll have an opportunity to score – I will try to do my best," said Kulemin.
"They're a good team; they've got a good scrum and lineout.
"I hope it's going to be an entertaining match and I'm also expecting it to be fast. We'll be looking to play hard in the forwards, try to improve in the scrum and put a lot of pressure on in the lineout.
"Castres was good; we played in the quarter-finals of the Top 14 three years in a row and that was a good experience. I really enjoyed it.
"The Top 14 is quite different to the Premiership. In France it's much more open, more passes, because the weather is different.
"In the Premiership there's more forwards play, more pick and go.
"But the Premiership is a tough league; all teams are at the same level.
"It's not like that in France where you have four or five teams that win all the time."

A Calne school groundsman who went missing on Tuesday has been found, safe and well.
Richard Forty, 24, was last seen on Tuesday at about 10am at St Mary's School in Calne, where he was worked for three years.
The school grounds were searched on Tuesday night by school staff and then by Wiltshire Police, who also carried out door knocks around his home address on Wednesday.
His safe return was confirmed by St Mary's School and Wiltshire Police this morning, who thanked members of the public for assisting with police enquiries and the media for publicising the force's appeal for information.
Stephanie Bryan, the school's marketing and communications manager, said: "I have been informed that Richard Forty has been found, safe and sound and is now with his family."

The man often regarded as the greatest Canadian cricketer of all time has called it a day. Ashish Bagai announced his retirement Saturday. The product of a Toronto District cricket Association and Toronto Cricket Academy rose through the ranks of Canada's youth system playing both u15 and u19 before joining the Canadian team at the young age of 17.
He displayed his prowess as a glove man for Canada at the 2003 cricket World Cup where he drew praise from many corners. Following a short hiatus to attend university Bagai returned this time as one of Canada's top players leading towards the 2007 Cricket World Cup.
With the team struggling in 2009, Bagai returned to captain Canada at the 2009 Cricket World Cup Qualifier. Often regarded as the best side Canada has ever put together, he led his charges to a second place finish and a spot in the 2011 Cricket World Cup. With a World Cup in his ancestral home on the horizon, Bagain left his career in Europe to rejoin Canada, this time as its first ever centrally contracted player. His return lasted until the end of 2011 Cricket World Cup where he went to pursue an education in the United States.
After some short stints working in television and completing his MBA, in May of 2013, Bagai returned for a 7 month period culminating with Canada's unsuccessful attempt to gain a berth in the 2014 World Twenty20.
Bagai had mixed emotions on the retirement, in a statement saying
"It's been 15 years since I first played for Canada and I think it's time for me to finally move on. It has been an absolute privilege and honour to represent Canada for such a long time and a responsibility I took very seriously.
First, I would like to thank my family for their continuous support and encouragement over the past 15 years. My parents, Vijay and Rita, my brother Akshay and my wife Monika have always believed in me and helped me through tough times. I would also like to thank my friends for being beside me throughout my time playing cricket. I would like to say a special thank you to Mr. Brian Hale who was the reason why started playing cricket in Canada and who shaped my entire game at a young age at the Toronto Cricket Academy. Finally, everyone who was a part of Cricket Canada since 1998 including the board, coaches and all the players that I have had the pleasure of playing with.
I feel gutted to be leaving the game when Canadian Cricket is going through a tough time but I believe that the young players that have been around for a while now will start stepping up in the coming years. There are some really talented young cricketers in Canada that need some proper guidance to be able to compete at the international level. The future of the game in Canada is really in their hands. The opportunity of making something for themselves is definitely there but it is up to them to show to the world how bad they want it. I will be following them with great interest.""
Cricket Canada's president Ravin Moorthy, who signed Bagai to his central contract in 2009 was grateful for Ashish's contribution to the game.
"There is no doubt that Ashish is a very special player. To consistently play at the high level he did without the benefit of a first-class cricketing structure around him is nothing short of amazing. He was one of the greatest players to play the Associate game and his presence will be missed not only by Canadian cricket but by many around the world. He consistently drove us to expect more on and off the field and set a fine example for those around him as to what it means to be a Canadian cricketer.
We wish Ashish and Monika the best as they start their new lives together and are looking forward to continuing to work with Ashish off the field to grow and move Canadian cricket forward. "
Bagai leaves as Canada's highest run getter in ODI's with 1964 runs at 37.76. He was part of Canada's squad that defeated Bangladesh in Durban at the 2003 Cricket World Cup

Every politician needs some luck of the Irish sometimes, and that often comes in the form of beer. While enjoying a basketball game or conducting international diplomacy, there's nothing like beer to loosen up a politico. Plus, cheers-ing your constituents on the campaign trail is a classic move to show you're a man or woman of the people. St. Paddy's Day calls for some suds, so to get you in the spirit, check out politicians like President Barack Obama, who drank Guinness in Ireland with Michelle, or President George W. Bush, who threw back a nonalcoholic version in Germany, enjoying some beer.

Sometimes there are ozone problems, but many people don't know what that means.
Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive gas composed of three oxygen atoms.
When the weather is expected to be sunny and hot/warm with light winds, we get ozone watches issued for Houston, Galveston and Brazoria counties. Typically, we'll have air pollution problems because elevated concentrations of ozone act as a lung irritant.
Individuals with chronic lung disease, such as asthma and emphysema, as well as the elderly and young children, are particularly sensitive to ozone and should attempt to avoid exposure by minimizing time outside during the midday to early evening hours, or stay indoors in an air-conditioned room.
Keep in mind that most ozone problems are for sensitive groups, not the general public. This is the orange area on the air quality index. The city of Houston will issue air quality warnings when the air quality deteriorates.
Here is what those warnings look like:
If you want to be added to the air quality email list when watches and warnings are issued, visit the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's website.

Welcome back to our live coverage of the eurozone crisis. By Tom Burgis and Esther Bintliff on the news desk in London with contributions from our correspondents around the world. All times GMT.
18.58 That's about it for the live blog today. Follow FT.com through the evening for all the news from the summit and analysis of the day's developments. Before we go, a quick recap:
- Eurozone finance ministers held back more than half of Greece's €130bn bail-out on the grounds that Athens has yet to jump through all the hoops lined up by its international creditors. That money could be released as soon as next week, though, and the ministers did sign off on a package of incentives and instruments to underpin a debt restructuring deal with private investors in Greek bonds
- ISDA, the industry body that decides what is and is not a "credit event", ruled that the Greek debt restructuring does not constitute one – or not yet, at any rate. That means that $3.25bn of credit default swaps on Greek government bonds do not pay out – unless ISDA comes to a different view at a later date. The decision could have significant knock-on effects in the market for CDS, which serve as insurance against a sovereign default.
- There was more fallout from the Irish plan to hold a referendum on the eurozone's fiscal compact, following the resignation of Fianna Fail's deputy leader – and an apparent threat to execute a kitten (see 15.22)
- Unemployment in the 17-member eurozone jumped to an all-time high of 10.7 per cent in January, new data showed
- Spain held another successful bond auction and Italian yields fell too
And we leave you with a little light reading on the travails of Greece and one line — perhaps unfair, given today's progress — that's been raising wry smiles on Twitter.
[blackbirdpie url="https://twitter.com/#!/sickipediabot/status/169089627783827457"]
18.55 As expected, Herman Van Rompuy is elected for another term as president of the European Council.
[blackbirdpie url="https://twitter.com/#!/euHvR/status/175291547821158401"]
18.18 Now the finance ministers have done their work — well, some of it — it's over the Europe's leaders for the summit proper. Once again, all lenses on Germany's Angela Merkel.
17.58 Earlier, Bill Gross, the manager of Pimco, the world's largest bond fund, was to be heard fulminating against ISDA's decision not to deem the Greek restructuring a "credit event", thereby preventing credit default swaps from paying out (15.27).
Our hawk-eyed colleagues at FT Alphaville have, however, been studying the list of the ISDA members that voted unanimously against calling a credit event. Check the last name….
