Archive: Post Politics Hour discussion transcripts
Paul Kane: Good morning, gang. Just breathed a sigh of relief because, as I peruse your questions, I see most are focused on the bailout/workout/rescue package, depending on your view of it. Personally, I'm now on my 11th straight day of being deeply embedded in the coverage of this, and, frankly, I've barely paid attention to anything else. (Example: I didn't see a single pitch of the the Phillies playoff win yesterday!)
So, we'll probably make this an-all-bailout-chat, unless I can figure a way to work in a Springsteen reference. On to the questions.
Indianapolis: Forget their voting records -- I want to know where representatives and senators have their money invested. Foreign or domestic?
Paul Kane: OpenSecrets.org; SunlightFoundation.org.
Those are just a couple of the Web sites through which you, the average or above-average citizen, can click through and find the personal financial disclosure forms that members must file every May 15. Go to it -- citizen journalism rules.
Raleigh, N.C.: Good morning. I have a question that will determine whether or not I will call my representative and tell him to vote no. The Senate bill adds $150 billion in tax breaks. Can you please describe them? How many years, how much and what do they cover? Thank you very much.
Paul Kane: By all means, don't let me stand in the way of democracy. Please call your representative. The general line is (202) 225-3121; that gets you to the main switchboard, but be forewarned, the phone lines are swamped. You'd be better off just going to the member's Web site and getting the direct line into the office. As for the description of the extending tax credits added to the bailout/workout/rescue package, read my colleague Steve Mufson's story today.
Southwest Nebraska: How friendly are senators across the aisle? There are reports that Obama went out of his way to greet McCain, and that McCain was not very affable.
Paul Kane: Senators pride themselves on at least the outward appearance of being very friendly to one another. They like to call the chamber the world's greatest deliberative body for a reason, because they all like to hear each other talk.
As for McCain and Obama, I wasn't here last night for the vote so I can't attest to the body language in their greeting. (Sorry, I'm working on a bigger project and needed to clear outta the press gallery up here, which has hopping mad with reporters and photographers as if it were an impeachment vote or State of the Union night. So I went home and did my work from there.)
Regardless, McCain is not a touchy-feely sort of person, so don't read too much into any reports that he wasn't affable toward Obama. he's just not an affable person.
Alexandria, Va.: Paul, I hear a lot about how close the Georgia and Kentucky Senate races are. Do you agree that they are? If so, do you think the Democrats have the resources (and time) to make either or both races competitive? Thanks.
Paul Kane: Boy, I've seen some polls of late showing these races tightening up, and I just have a hard time believing it. When the Chuckwagon lays out his top picks for Senate races, he never mentions Georgia and only references Kentucky in passing. (FYI: That's what I call Schumer, the Chuckwagon. Not sure anyone else really does, but from here on out in these chats, he's the Chuckwagon. Let's make that catch, people, start using it. Spread the word.)
So, the point is, if Democrats really have a chance in Georgia or Kentucky -- where relative no-names are challenging incumbents who were very popular a year ago -- then Democrats have reclaimed the chance at 58-60 seats, a prospect that they believed had faded away by mid-September, before the complete financial meltdown.
Bucks County, Pa.: "Personally, I'm now on my 11th straight day of being deeply embedded in the coverage of this, and, frankly, I've barely paid attention to anything else." Do you have a cot or something on the Hill? Do you just live there when this kind of marathon happens? P.S. Did you hear about the free Bruce concert on the Parkway in Philly on Saturday?
Paul Kane: Man, oh man, Bruce playing the Parkway in Philly. Just sounds awesome. As a reporter, I only could go to cover it, which wouldn't be any fun -- so personally, I won't be going and can't go. Bruce is never a work thing. By the way, my colleague J. Freedom du Lac, has been having fun on his chats trying to come up with the E Street Band's set list for the Super Bowl halftime show.
Meanwhile, my buddy Jack -- a Secaucus native raised in a Springsteen family, re-routed to the University of Maryland and now a public relations extraordinaire who can tell you everything you want to know about team tennis -- has his own guess: "No Surrender," "Glory Days," "The Rising," in some such order. I think "Born to Run" makes the cut.
Okay, I'm sorry, back to politics. Er, there were no politics in that question. Basically, I live four blocks from the Capitol. I've incorporated "Capitol" into my personal e-mail handle. I'm a loser, Congress is my life.
If You Call Him the Chuckwagon: Can he call you the Paulbearer?
Paul Kane: Most people use my last name to throw mocking nicknames at me: Co-Kane, Nova-Kane, Sugar-Kane. Dumbest one ever was The Paul Kane Pain Train. (Thanks, John, for not letting that one catch on.) P.S. -- My childhood nickname was Anchor Head. Damn, I'm giving you guys all my secrets today.
Washington: Hiya Paul. Please help me understand why the Treasury secretary needs a $700 billion account? Couldn't Congress provide a smaller amount now, see how the first round of the bailout goes and then add additional funds as needed? I think a lot of citizens are horrified by the amount of the bailout and the amount of discretion Secretary Paulson will have to administer those funds. If a bailout were doled out in smaller amounts as a check to see if Paulson is effective in administering the funds, I think a lot more of us would be more comfortable, and the overall bailout would be more palatable. Why $700 billion all at once?
Paul Kane: This is a great question, and frankly, one that has bedeviled most lawmakers. They essentially have done what you've suggested.
They're giving the money to the Treasury in what they call "tranches." It's a stupid French word that people in business use to make themselves sound smarter than the rest of us. Basically, they're giving Paulson the money in pieces: First bite, $250 billion, then $100 billion, and for the final $350 billion, Congress would be able to block the next Treasury secretary from accessing.
This has been a frustrating point that those who support this bill have not been able to get through the public din of opposition to this. The dollar figure -- why $700 billion? -- has been a real sticking point, a bone of contention, because people really didn't ever get a satisfactory answer as to why they requested $700 billion.
Bloomington, Ind.: Paul, if, for some reason, the House does not vote for the revised financial bill on Friday, will they stay in session until one is passed?
Paul Kane: Man, I don't know what to think will happen if they can't pass this bill on Friday, folks. Yes, they would tell you, they will stay in session until something's passed.
But wow, Monday's vote was the most suspenseful thing I've ever watched in Washington -- it was mind-blowing, it's impossible to explain to people what it was like, knowing the market was in pure free fall as Hoyer, Emanuel and Blunt tried to find the 10 votes they needed to switch and win. (They had 207 "ayes" at one point, to 226 "nays," but once it became clear the legislation was dying, two "ayes" switched back to nay.)
I just hasten to think how the markets would react. If they're not sure if they have the votes going into it, look for the House to not vote until Friday evening, after all markets have closed and won't reopen until Monday.
Dunn Loring, Va.: Despite asking Americans to "take action" in support of the bailout, reports from earlier this week stated that Obama had not called a single representative to urge their support of the bailout. Do you know if he has called any representatives since then?
Paul Kane: Yes, my colleague Shailagh Murray reported earlier this week that Obama began making calls to House Democrats on Tuesday, focusing on the Congressional Black Caucus.
Folks, you need to go back and read a story I wrote during the Democratic convention about the Pelosi-Obama dynamic.
Nobody read this because there was an avalanche of news at the time, but it's instructive of Pelosi's power over the House. Obama doesn't have that much sway with this crowd -- nowhere near as much as Pelosi, who they've known for decades.
They trust her implicitly. They barely know Obama.
Aside from CBC members like Jesse Jackson Jr., whose constituents love Obama dearly, Obama would have a hard time flipping members if Pelosi couldn't do the job herself.
Washington: Extraordinary to hear today on the radio the American people characterized as "divided." Feinstein's office alone received 91,000 calls from California, 85,000 of which opposed the bailout. Does not sound divided at all to me.
Paul Kane: A lot of offices have reported a change in their calls/e-mails/contacts since the House vote on Monday.
Feinstein, for what it's worth, told me last Wednesday night that she had received 50,000 contacts at that point on the bailout/work out/rescue package. And only two dozen were in favor.
I'll trust your numbers are accurate, because I checked in Tuesday night and they had 83,000 voter contacts, with 6,000 for. My guess is, while it's still running more in the "no" category, the number of people calling saying do "something" had increased rapidly, even in Feinstein's office, where a week ago just 24 people had said pass "something."
Burke, Va.: According to this AP report, Gwen Ifill: "Did not tell the Commission on Presidential Debates about the book. The commission had no immediate comment when contacted by The Associated Press." Shouldn't she be fired as moderator for concealing this information while she was being considered for this prestigious assignment?
Paul Kane: I've got news for everyone: Lots of reporters who are covering the presidential campaign on a daily basis (er, these days, hourly) have book deals that involve Obama. Pssst, I've got news for you, also: Lots of reporters currently covering the presidential campaign on a daily/hourly basis have book deals that involve McCain. This is what happens all the time.
Salinas, Calif.: "They had 207 'ayes' at one point, to 226 'nays,' but once it became clear the legislation was dying, two 'ayes' switched back to 'nay.' " So tell us Paul, who are those two gutless House wonders who switched back to "nay" just for some political tush-coverage for the folks back home?
Paul Kane: I'm so sorry, I don't know precisely who the vote switchers were -- there was some confusion at the end of the vote, as some names were called out and some switched. I'll say this -- Rep. Sullivan of Oklahoma, who was a "no" vote, walked into the well of the chamber and appeared to grab a "green card" from a clerk, signifying he intended to switch his vote to ''aye." (Members have ATM-like cards with which they slide into a slot, then push a green or red button, and once you're at the very end of a vote you cannot switch your vote without going to the front desk of the chamber and getting a different card and slowly and properly switch your vote.)
Once it was clear they were gaveling the vote shut, with the opposition winning, Sullivan switched back to "no."
New York: You wrote: "Obama would have a hard time flipping members if Pelosi couldn't do the job herself." Seems McCain, even after 26 years in the Senate, has the same trouble. Nobody on his side really listens to him, either. Right? I mean, he was supposed to wrangle all that support for the initial bailout, wasn't he?
Paul Kane: Remember, the House GOP never really has liked McCain -- they fought most of this decade about campaign finance reform, immigration, torture legislation and other issues. The idea that he was going to flip House Republicans was always a bit of a novelty, something his campaign wanted to float in the expectation of the measure passing.
The reality is, this bill needed McCain and Obama's public support, but now it really needs them to get the heck out of the way, if it's to pass.
Rockville, Md.: I guess we are so many years away from the farm that we do not use the same metaphors that I used to see. But I have expected to see "burn the barn to get the rats."
Paul Kane: I really have no clue what this means. I hope there's no sexual innuendo in it.
P.S. -- Growing up as Anchor Head in Maple Glen, Pa., I was a total suburban brat, whose idea of a barn was the wood fort we built behind St. Alphonsus Elementary School.
Atlanta: You must be a little crazy -- there is no way that this state will send Jim Martin to the senate. Perhaps, since the Libertarian is polling at 8 percent to 10 percent, there will be a runoff (yes, we're in the South, we have runoffs, please find the history somewhere so I don't have to explain why...), but there is no way Chambliss has any chance of losing. Wow, I can't believe anyone even said that...
Paul Kane: Just to be clear here, I'm not anticipating a Martin win. I meant to throw a lot of suspicion on the polls showing him closing in on Chambliss. Georgia, after all, was the one state in America that went more Republican in 2006. What I meant was, geez, if this race goes down to the wire, that means all those other races we think are tossups -- Minnesota, Oregon, Colorado, Alaska, North Carolina, in addition to near certain wins in Virginia and New Mexico -- those tossups would actually be lean Democrats right now. Which I just don't think I believe yet.
Your life: Do you expect to take some time off soon? When can we relax? Will the news ever stop coming so fast and furious?
Paul Kane: Cross all our fingers. There's a chance that, if the House can pass this thing Friday without any changes to the bill, sending it to the White House, that I'll join the Kane family in Avalon, N.J., for a long, long weekend. Hope to have a few Yuenglings at the Princeton.
"Burn the barn to get the rats.": In Vietnam they'd have said "we have to destroy the village in order to save it."
Paul Kane: And the Phoenix will rise from the ashes?
I guess that's what all this means. Well, 228 House members basically burned down the House and ran around burning thousand-dollar bills Monday, as the market went into free-fall. Still can't believe it happened.
West Chester: If Obama and Biden win the elections, what's the word on who their respective governors would appoint to replace them in the Senate? Any chance Beau Biden would be considered?
Paul Kane: I don't think there's any chance of Beaux Biden getting the appointment, because of his yearlong service in Iraq. Don't think you can appoint someone who's actually not able to serve immediately -- wouldn't seem right.
More likely, if Joe Biden had his way, they would appoint a caretaker who would get the nod until November 2010, when a special election would be held for the remaining four years of his term. (Biden is on the verge of winning his seventh term; he's on the ballot twice in Delaware, as vice president and senator.)
One name floated is a former state legislator named ... wait for it ... Bob Byrd. No lie. Is the Senate big enough for two Bob Byrds?
No clue about Illinois, although I think the entire House delegation wants the nod.
In Arizona, should McCain win, the Democratic governor would appoint someone until a 2010 special, when Rep. John Shadegg is sure to run.
Atlanta: If you laid out $700 billion end to end in $1 bills, how many times would it stretch to the moon and back?
washingtonpost.com: Approximately 57.
Paul Kane: Be forewarned, I have no idea if this is true; I'm hoping Atlanta here actually found this on our Web site. But I just kinda think it's cool.
Anonymous: What's the latest head count from the House for the bailout? Will Pelosi hold firm on needing 100 Republicans to pass the bill?
Paul Kane: Don't expect 100 Republicans tomorrow, that's what I'm told. But if they bring more than 80 Republicans to the table, I think the bill passes with a slightly comfortable margin.
The House Republicans are saying they're increasingly confident, but far from boastful.
For what it's worth, in the Tom DeLay era, the Republicans never lost a big vote that I can remember. They simply had a mantra: Losing is not an option.
Things weren't brought to the floor if they were gonna fail. Sometimes they didn't quite have the votes to win, but they knew whose arms they could break once they got them on the floor, away from staff, away from lobbyists, away from everything but the leadership.
Losing was not an option.
On Monday, it was.
Stupid process question: I was sure I heard someone say before Monday's vote that a bill such as the rescue plan, which deals with finances and Treasury, constitutionally has to start in the House. So if the House didn't pass it, how could the Senate even vote on it?
Paul Kane: The Senate took up an already-existing bill that the House had sent it -- the extension of tax credits for renewable energy and the AMT patch.
The Senate simply amended a bill that originated in the House. Granted, that's one helluva an amendment -- a $700 billion bailout that, in size and importance, dwarfed the underlying bill -- but because they were just amending an existing bill that originated in the House, it was kosher.
Lansdale, Pa.: Do you know how many, if any, Democrats who voted for the bail out on Monday are in close races? My own representative voted for it, and I am mad enough to vote Republican, but I think Pennsylvania's 13th District is a pretty safe Democratic district this year.
Paul Kane: Lansdale! For a brief stint in my life I covered the North Penn School Board for The Reporter up there, about 15 minutes from where I grew up.
Yeah, assuming you're in PA-13, Schwartz does not have a tough race -- that eastern Montgomery County area has gone so Democratic, she's home safe.
Alexandria, Va.: Paul, With all that's going on in Congress, when do you find time to sleep? A question about Sen. Stevens: If he is found guilty, could he still decide to leave the race? Would his name still be on the ballot? If so, could he say that a vote for him is a vote for the Republican who replaces him?
Paul Kane: Okay, folks, I'm even a few minutes over now, gotta get back to the reporting side of things. Tomorrow is D-Day once again. Big things ahead. Here's to hoping that I make it to Avalon this weekend. Go Phillies.

Event Details
The Basics
The first EdcampDC will galvanize educators in our nation's capital region.
Edcamps are self-organized "unconferences" that bring forward-thinking educators together to network, share ideas, and teach one another. It's not just a day of professional development. It's a movement. And it's planned for Saturday, January 21, 2012.
Rather than sit and passively receive information from an "expert" presenter, Edcamp attendees are the presenters.
Attendees bring their troves of knowledge and experience to create an agenda the day of the conference. They network, forge friendships, and teach one another in socratic sessions. And they obey the "law of two feet": move to the session most useful to you.
What Does It Mean to Register?
Signing up to attend EdcampDC means that you're committed to sharing ideas, asking questions, and forging new connections with other educators in the DC Region.
Anyone attending can choose to present. Registering does not mean that you have to present, but all attendees interested in presenting must register. Learn more here.
Lunch will be provided for all attendees.
Full details at edcampdc.org

1.Pick The Materials:
Before following the simple tips for a French manicure, you need the tools. Nail filer, two nail colours (one for the tip and the other for the rest of your fingers), top coat, nail tapes, and a small brush are needed. What do you need more? Patience, dear.
2.Washing And Trimming:

Go see 110 in the Shade staring the effervescent Natalie Wheeler (you thought Audra McDonald was good . . .) at the Hale Center Theater. Be treated to a cast that boasts not only Wheeler (a voice like a string of smooth pearls) but veteran actor Marvin Payne and dancer John Graham.
If you really want to do it up right: go to Pizzeria 712 before the show. Get the Speck (I am telling you). After the show, discuss the moral of the play, the historical plot, or personal revelations at The Chocolate. I have said this before, I will say it again: the mini cupcakes are juuuuuust riiiiight.
In all, you will have had a lovely evening and only traveled a few blocks between all the spots.

Susan Komen is one of my 3 passions, along with the Boy Scouts and Gators. I believe "we can make a difference."
An important fact about this event is that it's a local event with the money being used to help folks where we live.
The event is very early at the St Johns Town Center and will be a lot of fun with thousands of women all striving for a common purpose.
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of my fundraising efforts.

A poor-boy college football hero turned successful partner at a prominent Dallas firm, who long ago checked his conscience at the door, catches a case that forces him to choose between his enviable lifestyle and doing the right thing in this masterful debut legal thriller.
Clark McCall, ne'er-do-well son of Texas millionaire senator and presidential hopeful Mack McCall, puts a major crimp in his father's election plans when he winds up murdered, apparently by Shawanda Jones, a heroin-addicted hooker, after a tawdry night of booze, drugs, and rough sex.
Scott Fenney, who's worked his way to being a partner at an elite Dallas law firm, is assigned to provide Shawanda's pro bono defense after the federal judge on the case hears him deliver an inspiring, altruistic, and completely insincere, speech to the local bar association. Scott plans to farm the case out to an old law school buddy, do-good-attorney Bobby Herrin. But his plans go awry when Shawanda puts her foot down in court and refuses to be passed off to the lawyer she considers the lesser attorney.
As the case unfolds, pressure is exerted on Scott to deter him from being too aggressive in his defense of Shawanda. That pressure becomes palpable as Scott is slowly stripped of the things he's come to care for most. Will he do the right thing, at a terrible cost, or the easy thing and keep his hard-earned fabulous life?
With echoes of early John Grisham, The Color of Law is a provocative listen that marked the stunning debut of a major new talent.

"This is a well-calibrated contemporary morality play, set in get-rich-quick Dallas, with tours of country clubs and gated communities, and knowledgeable forays into Darwinian legal tactics. Gimenez also gives us a hateful character who becomes more sympathetic the more he fails. Fast-paced and thought-provoking fare." (Booklist)
"A Delight"
Having never heard of the author, I took a chance and was rewarded by a listen that was well-crafted, entertaining and had a serious message that could be a wake-up call for our society. Yeah, the plot is a little predictable and the good guy is a little bit of a cartoon character, but this one is worth it.
"Easy listening"
I have listened to this book twice. Just found it to be pleasant enjoyable book. Not a thriller or suspensful story, but a good story of people who's world gets turned upside down and have to make some tough decissions for the best.
"Carlsbad reader"
The story line is predictable, but the character development is good, and it held my interest. However, it had such a Perry Mason ending as to make it totally unbelievable. It almost seemed as if the author said that the book had to end now, and just pulled out an "I can't tell a lie...I did it!" ending. Very disappointing!
"best ever"
i tead this book 3x and listened to it on audible. it is one of the best books ever
"Great writing, plot and characters"
Fresh characters, compelling integration of strong story and the ethical struggles for lawyers.
"Great story and great characters."
If you like Grisham you will like Gimenez. Lots of character depth and setting the surrounding atmosphere. The story keeps a good pace and you are never bored
"Enjoyable read"
Very enjoyable book .... and there's nothing wrong with a Perry Mason ending. Even the author was aware of that.
"Excellent book"
A wonderfully gripping legal thriller filled with passion, intrigue and compassion. If this is a first edition please write more

Abernethy malformation is a very rare congenital vascular malformation defined by diversion of portal blood away from liver. It is commonly associated with multiple congenital anomalies. We present a case of Abernethy malformation, without associated congenital anomalies from India.
A 5-year-old female child presented with short history of jaundice. A provisional diagnosis of acute viral hepatitis was made in view of clinical presentation and local endemicity of viral hepatitis A. Persistence of jaundice on follow up after 4weeks led to detailed investigations. Ultrasound and doppler study of abdomen revealed drainage of portal vein into inferior vena cava. CT angiography was performed which confirmed the diagnosis of Type 1 b Abernethy malformation without associated major anomalies. We discuss the common clinical presentations, associated anomalies, diagnostic workup and treatment options of this disorder.
The treatment of the patients with congenital porto-systemic shunts depends on the site of the shunt, associated congenital anomalies and the extent of liver damage but the prognosis depends on the complications irrespective of anatomical type. However, the extent of associated abnormalities should not deter paediatricians to refer patients for treatment. Whenever possible closure of the shunt should be advised for cure or to prevent complications. Only symptomatic type I patients with absence of possibility to close the shunt may require liver transplant. Long-term follow-up is indicated for all patients.

We are the party of fairness, Gray claims
Nationalists are presiding over cuts to services, says Iain Gray in keynote speech to Labour conference
Iain Gray, the new Scottish Labour leader, will attempt to position his party as the defender of public services in a keynote speech today to the party's UK conference.
Mr Gray will claim that Labour is the only "force for fairness" in the Scottish Parliament.
He will accuse the Nationalists of presiding over damaging cuts in services to vulnerable groups across Scotland, and he will use the new Liberal Democrat leader Tavish Scott's pledge to cut income tax by 2p in Scotland to warn of the devastation of vital services.
A Labour source said: "The fight we are facing against the SNP in policy terms is the same as the one against the Tories at Westminster. North and south of the Border, Labour is carrying…

English Rugby
Johnson focuses on the positives
ESPNscrum Staff
November 29, 2010
Johnson saw his side record two wins and two defeats during a testing autumn campaign © Getty Images
Martin Johnson is confident England are heading the 'right direction' despite their mauling at the hands of South Africa at Twickenham.
The Springboks outmuscled England to claim a 21-11 victory on Saturday which left the hosts with a record of two wins, against Australia and Samoa, and two losses, against New Zealand and South Africa, during the autumn series. But despite mixed results Johnson insists his side are on course to make a serious challenge at next year's Rugby World Cup.
"We're far better for getting through a Test series. It's a learning experience emotionally, controlling the ups and downs and dealing with the intensity for some of the guys and they have done it very well really," said Johnson.
"We do expect more. We set our standards and we did not meet those clearly. But we are playing good teams. You make mistakes and errors and people get injured and you get penalised and you disagree and all these things, but you have to overcome them.
"The team's going in the right direction and we can be a pretty good team but consistency is the key. Everyone in the autumn series, with the exception of the All Blacks, has been a bit up and down. Good Test teams go out and are difficult to beat every week."
England were disrupted on Saturday by an early injury to wing Chris Ashton when he collided with Springbok captain Victor Matfield and the sight of fly-half Toby Flood and flanker Tom Croft leaving the field with head and shoulder injuries respectively. But Johnson pinpointed his side's errors as the reason for defeat against the Boks.
"We let them off the hook too easily," said Johnson. "But they are a good team. They defended strongly. They are strong in the set-piece. They have been around the block and their kicking game was good. A couple of key kicks pinned us back and we couldn't get out. They make the difference. I thought we were pretty good defensively. We just brought silly penalties into the game that gave them more field position and territory."
England's coaches will meet up early next week to assess the autumn matches and the squad will spend a week in Portugal towards the end of January in preparation for the Six Nations. While Johnson never gets too excited he cannot wait to see the next stage in the development of a team in which his best players, such as second row Courtney Lawes and scrum-half Ben Youngs, are also among the youngest.
"You always want to improve and move on and we have certainly done it," said Johnson. "As a group just having the time together and going through ups and downs is huge. I think we've got a team now definitely. Everyone wants to be in it. It's very competitive to get in it.
"The medics have done a great job keeping everyone fit and healthy and the coaches have done a great job as well. No-one's going to sit back and think we're anywhere near there. There is a long way to go and a long way we can go. Loads of great pluses. Everyone who has played has played well. For those guys in sub-10, sub-20 Test matches everything is new and absorbed."
So next stop the Six Nations and an opening Friday night encounter against Wales in Cardiff on February 4. "Scotland have beaten South Africa. We've beaten the Australians. Ireland and Wales have been there or thereabouts so the Six Nations should be a hell of a tournament," predicted Johnson.

Balancing Demand with Supply: Thermoplastic Elastomers Help Satisfy Growing Global Need for Pharma Packaging and Devices
Two healthcare megatrends are driving global demand for a wide range of pharmaceutical packaging and drug delivery devices. Aging populations and economic gains in developing nations are contributing to a higher use of healthcare products, putting intense pressure on manufacturers to produce significantly greater quantities more quickly. Many companies are looking for new ways to build faster throughput and greater scalability into their supply chains while optimizing costs. One proven approach is replacing traditional vulcanized rubber materials with thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).
Although widely used in stoppers and septa, caps and closures, syringe plungers and IV bag connectors, vulcanized rubbers can be costly and inconvenient due to the long processing cycle and the need to wash the parts to remove residual chemicals. Replacing rubber with specialized healthcare grades of TPEs streamlines processing and minimizes secondary operations, raising productivity and reducing system costs. In addition to these major manufacturing advantages, TPEs deliver a number of design and usability benefits. Advanced TPEs can make an important contribution to supply chain efficiency, enabling pharmaceutical companies to take full advantage of growing demand for their products.
Leveraging Growth from Two Healthcare Trends
Two sweeping changes are affecting global demand for pharmaceutical products. The aging population is leading to greater overall consumption of healthcare services and products, with a particular emphasis on treatments for chronic diseases, often administered by patients or caregivers in a home setting. Effective care in the home calls for packaging, device designs and materials suitable for elderly, chronically ill and disabled consumers, making ergonomics, aesthetics and comfort increasingly important. For example, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) draft guidance1 on design considerations for home-use devices cites sensory perception/tactile sensitivity variations among users as an important feature.
In developing nations, growing affluence and the rise of the middle class are driving expanded use of healthcare services. However, in these low- to middle-income countries, increased availability of medical devices must be paired with affordability. According to a World Health Organization (WHO) bulletin from January 2013,2 "...Radha Basu, director of Santa Clara University's Frugal Innovation Laboratory in the U.S. state of California, believes that one of the big drivers of change is the increased demand for effective and robust low-cost medical devices from emerging economies, notably China and India."
To take advantage of the growth generated by these forces, pharmaceutical companies need an efficient and flexible supply chain that can sustain major increases in demand. Two keys to supply chain optimization are higher productivity and streamlined processing, which not only yield greater quantities in a shorter period but can also drive system costs down. New materials can help manufacturers meet these goals. The most innovative solutions, such as medical grade TPEs, also bring other benefits to the table.
Moving Beyond Vulcanized Rubber
For years, vulcanized rubbers have been used in a range of pharmaceutical packaging and drug delivery devices. Although these materials offer cost advantages, processing them presents many drawbacks that can negate the cost benefits. For example, the vulcanization or curing step, not only takes time but also requires chemicals such as sulfur and zinc. Any unreacted chemical agents must be washed away after molding to prevent them from leaching into the pharmaceutical product and potentially interacting with a drug. This post-cure step can lengthen the process by hours and requires environmentally appropriate disposal of the washing agents. In addition, rubber parts typically require de-flashing and often must be assembled using adhesives, adding costs.
Manufacturers can achieve the desirable flexibility, low modulus and soft touch of vulcanized rubber, while adding processing advantages and the potential for recycling, by choosing TPEs. Medical grade TPEs offer a viable alternative to medical grade rubbers. These materials have very low levels of leachables and extractables for safety, and are available in many different formulations to address specific processing and end product requirements. In contrast to the lengthy and complicated processing required for vulcanized rubber components, TPEs feature a faster and simpler system. They are supplied fully formulated to meet the functional demands of the required application. No curing step is required because TPEs combine thermoplastic properties with their elastomeric characteristics, helping manufacturers avoid the time-consuming and environmentally challenging washing step.
Unlike thermoset rubber, TPEs can be injection molded or extruded using high-speed equipment, and can be overmolded onto a substrate in a single operation such as two-shot injection molding or insert molding. Overmolding can eliminate the need for adhesives, helping to promote a seamless, secure bond and enabling part consolidation. With simpler processing and the use of high-speed molding machinery, TPEs can boost production speeds, increase productivity and lower overall system costs. These versatile materials also provide other highly desirable design and usability advantages.
Promoting Ergonomics and Usability
While TPEs range from ultra-soft to rigid and from transparent to opaque, they share three characteristics: the ability to return to their original shape after being deformed, the ability to be processed as a melt at an elevated temperature and the lack of significant creep. Most TPEs can stretch repeatedly to at least twice their original length, some up to 10 times their length, without significant permanent deformation. TPEs can also be easily colored, and can accept special visual effects for aesthetic appeal and product differentiation; as well as provide a further visual check at the point of care.
Available in a range of hardnesses and capable of providing a customized feel, TPEs are ideal for medical device packaging and for devices that require ergonomic design and excellent usability, particularly for self-care by elderly or disabled users.
The ergonomic value of TPEs can be seen in an award-winning prefilled syringe designed by OXO, a New York-based consumer products brand, for UCB, a global biopharmaceutical leader. This innovative syringe system for home use was developed to help patients suffering with rheumatoid arthritis and takes into account specific dexterity challenges they may encounter when self-administering their medication. Features include a non-slip finger grip and an overmolded ergonomic thumb pad, both molded from PolyOne GLS VersaflexTM TPE, a soft, flexible, non-slip material that enhances ease of use and comfort.
Expanding Design Freedom
TPEs also increase design freedom, which can drive innovation and competitive advantages for pharmaceutical manufacturers. To improve the precision of dosing for liquid medicines, Andwin Scientific, a manufacturer and brand owner of medical and laboratory supplies, conceived the SealSafe® bottle dosing adapter for oral liquid medicines based on a self-sealing septum. A dosing syringe equipped with a bottle adapter allows the person to completely invert the bottle during oral dosing, improving accuracy and enabling every drop of medication to be used. The dosing adapter consists of a cylindrical, polymer shell with the septum at its core. To create the membrane, a custom-formulated TPE from PolyOne GLS is overmolded onto the shell, which also includes flexible fins.
The Andwin Scientific application demonstrates one of the major design features of TPEs: overmolding onto a plastic substrate instead of using adhesives to join components. Overmolding provides a tough, seamless bond that can be stronger than the two materials themselves. This approach also helps to prevent leaks in medical devices, such as securing the connection between tubing and an IV bag. In one case, a manufacturer of a polypropylene (PP) hose for medical applications, including laser surgery, respiratory care and sleep apnea equipment, selected a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV), a type of TPE with a vulcanized dispersed phase, to overmold a cuff on the end of its hoses, providing a quality seal.
A vial stopper for medical applications from a major pharmaceutical manufacturer also showcases the benefits of overmolding. The original part consisted of a PP sleeve that positioned a separate thermoset elastomer button over the vial. Engineers developed a single, part manufactured by overmolding and fuse-bonding a TPE to PP via two-shot injection molding. In addition to halving the number of parts, the fuse bonding reduces the potential for leakage failures.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers have an unparalleled opportunity to drive growth by addressing global demand for their products, which is spiking due to the needs of elderly patients and the demands from middle class consumers in China, India and Brazil, among other nations. New legislation broadening healthcare access, together with continued economic improvements, have the potential to accelerate demand even further.
Pharmaceutical and medical device companies need new strategies for optimizing supplies of their products so they can meet current requirements and scale up for the future. A simple and effective solution is upgrading from traditional vulcanized rubber with versatile thermoplastic elastomers. The beneficial effects can be far reaching, beginning with a streamlined production process that drives up volume and drives down costs. High-speed injection molding and extrusion capabilities are just the beginning. Manufacturers can avoid toxic materials, multiple secondary operations and complex assembly steps. From a strategic standpoint, TPEs also enable new, integrated designs that reduce supply chain complexity. These materials add further value by promoting ergonomics, ease of use and safety, as well as improved aesthetics for consumer acceptance and brand differentiation.

Humans have been brewing up and consuming alcohol in some form or another for thousands of years. It's safe to say very many of us enjoy and some even seem to require its psychoactive properties. Today it is a comparatively inexpensive commodity and we're spoilt for choice as to flavors, strengths and novelty value. As a drug, we have embraced it more fully than anything else. It is legal, it is interwoven with social and business-related activities and it is frequently used in times of celebration. But it is also used as a means of self-medication and it's this to which my post now focuses.
After a busy or stressful day it's a common enough thing to meet with friends at the bar or go home and pour a drink. There's nothing wrong with this of course but if the motive for drinking is to reduce stress on a regular, i.e. daily basis, then problems are beginning to stack up. Part of the problem lies with the fact that alcohol is an addictive drug and as with all addictive drugs more is required over the longer term in order to achieve the desired effect. So, in a typical scenario of low mood, stress, irritation or anger, the downing of a glass of alcohol can make our problems recede in a fairly rapid and pleasant fashion. Symptoms of stress and anxiety can literally disappear in minutes.
It's easy to see why so many people with anxiety-related issues find a drink of alcohol is so appealing. In fact anxiety sufferers are around three times more likely to turn to alcohol or some other form of substance abuse. What many may not realize is just how short-lived an effect it is. Every time alcohol leaves your system your symptoms become just a touch worse. Over time it becomes more tempting and more necessary to open another bottle, or to refill your glass. Anxiety levels slowly begin to rise and alcohol is not far behind. This is the start of alcohol dependency and a vicious cycle.
What starts off as an easy and effective way to provide temporary relief from anxiety can lead to a point where alcohol itself is inducing anxiety. There are several other outcomes of self-medicating with alcohol and none of them are good. Alcohol is a toxin, so your mental and physical faculties will be negatively affected. Attempts to withdraw from consuming alcohol can itself cause anxiety because you are effectively attempting to remove yourself from an addictive substance. In battling both withdrawal symptoms and increased anxiety the temptation to drink more alcohol increases.
The message for longer-term anxiety sufferers is very simple. Don't use alcohol as a means to control your anxiety. Of all the possible alternatives in the treatment of anxiety, alcohol is probably the worst and the most damaging and will certainly never provide a solution.

Kourou, French Guiana (ESA) Jan 28, 2017
ESA's new small telecom platform was launched on its first mission in the early hours of Saturday morning.
The Hispasat 36W-1 satellite, based on the SmallGEO platform, lifted off on a Soyuz rocket at 01:03 GMT this morning from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana.
SmallGEO is Europe's response to the market demand for more flexible, modular telecommunications platforms. It marks the first time the German satellite manufacturing company OHB System AG have been the prime contractor for a telecommunications satellite mission. Its Hispasat payload marks the first ESA partnership with a Spanish operator.
The three-tonne satellite was released by Soyuz into its transfer orbit 29 minutes after liftoff this morning. It will now use its own thrusters to make its way to its final destination over the course of the next few weeks.
It is heading towards 'geostationary' orbit at an altitude of 36 000 km over the equator, where it will take a day to circle Earth and therefore appear to hang over the same point, in this case at 36 W over the Atlantic Ocean. OHB will test the satellite's health and performance, making sure the sensitive technology made it unscathed through the violence of the launch.
After all is deemed well, they will hand the control over to Hispasat and the satellite will begin providing broadband services to Europe, South America and the Canary Islands.
"The launch of this first SmallGEO platform marks another major success for ESA's programme of Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems, known as ARTES, which aims to boost the competitiveness of its Member State industry through innovation," noted Magali Vaissiere, ESA's Director of Telecommunications and Integrated Applications.
"SmallGEO is part of our continuous efforts to strengthen the position of European and Canadian industry in the commercial telecommunications market, expanding the current range of available products. "The next satellite based on SmallGEO will be EDRS-C, as the second node to the European Data Relay System."
Carlos Espinos Gomez, CEO of Hispasat, said: "For Hispasat, this new satellite represents an important step forward in its innovation strategy.
"Hispasat 36W-1 is not only the first mission of the new SmallGEO platform, but also incorporates an advanced regenerative payload that will provide the satellite with greater flexibility and signal quality thanks to its reconfigurable antenna and onboard processor, thus improving the telecommunications services it will provide to our clients.
"We are very satisfied with our collaboration with ESA, which has allowed us to participate in a leading technological project to which they have added significant value with their knowledge and experience in the space sector."
Marco Fuchs, CEO of OHB System AG, commented: "The launch is a major milestone in the history of OHB. Hispasat 36W-1 proves that OHB's concept of a modular and flexible SmallGEO platform fits into the market.
"SmallGEO is destined to build a cornerstone for Europe's future activities in the segment of geostationary satellites in the three-tonne class.
"For OHB, Hispasat 36W-1 is the first project of a wide scope of future missions based on the SmallGEO platform, including a revolution in satellite technology: the full electric propulsion mission Electra."

Business T1 Line and PRI CircuitBusiness T1 line:
Many businesses need a single business T1 line or multiple T1 circuits based on their business requirements. A T1 is 2 copper pairs from the telephone network that provide voice, data, or a hybrid solution for your business. A single T1 provides up to 1.544Mbps.Renew your T1 or PRI service:
If you are looking to renew your service, contact our team of carrier service consultants to provide an unbiased approach to providing renewal pricing for your business. Businesses tend not to know what they have on their phone and internet bill, whereas we provide telecom audit services to sift through the pages and pages of bills in order to understand what you are paying for. Then we review your phone systems and IT infrastructure to better understand your technology capabilities. Typically, your business needs have changed since the last time you purchased dialtone or internet services; let us help you connect with the right provider.Multiple T1s:
Larger businesses or businesses with greater needs typically ordered T1s in one of the following fashions:
- T1 - 1.544 Mbps
- T3 - 43.232 Mbps (28 T1s)
- OC3 - 155 Mbps (84 T1s)
- OC12 - 622 Mbps (4 OC3s)
- OC48 - 2.5 Gbps (4 OC12s)
- OC192 - 9.6 Gbps (4 OC48s)
Due to advancements in infrastructure equipment, providers have become more flexible with businesses requiring multiple T1s but less than 10 Mbps which is commonly referred to as bonded T1s.Why businesses should turn to business T1 line versus Cable Internet:
Cable internet has become a very popular and low cost solution to get access to high amounts of bandwidth. Your business should truly evaluate the pros and cons and not only focus on monthly price as it could impact your business and end users. However, cable internet has the following disadvantages:
- Shared line; thus, other subscribers can negatively impact your connection speeds.
- Your bandwidth isn't guaranteed as upload/download speeds vary.
- Support response to outages or issues with your cable internet services is typically slow. There are no guarantees in response or service time.
- PRI circuit over cable internet is more popular; however, quality can vary based on your cable internet connection.
T1 line differs in the following ways:
- More flexible and diverse service to provide voice only, internet only or a hybrid solution.
- Standard intervals for turnup can be 3-6 weeks; whereas, cable internet and voice services might be able to be expedited based on facility availability.
- Better support response times and business level guarantees built into the agreement with your provider.
- T1 providers are readily available throughout the world; thus, competitive pricing is available.
Businesses that have approximately 6 phone lines can benefit from a voice PRI. The voice PRI allows for direct inward dials and eliminates cross talk which stands phone lines are more susceptible to weather related issues. The PRI allows number consolidation and expansion. Clients with 6 phone lines with only 6 numbers can now have 10, 20, 50, 100 or more phone numbers over 6 channel PRI. If you need help to migrate to a voice PRI, let us help design and upgrade your phone system to ensure it allows voice T1.What does PRI stand for?
Primary Rate Interface (PRI) provides a digital circuit instead of an analog circuit or analog pots lines. A PRI allows up to 23 concurrent call paths.What are some other common business T1 lines?
- Data T1
- Point-to-point T1
- Integrated T1
- Hybrid T1
- Flex T1
- Dynamic T1
- Burstable T1
- Sip T1
- VoIP T1

We constructed the broad-host-range plasmid pUCD800 containing the sacB gene of Bacillus subtilis for use in the positive selection and isolation of insertion sequence (IS) elements in gram-negative bacteria. Cells containing pUCD800 do not grow on medium containing 5% sucrose unless the sacB gene is inactivated. By using pUCD800, we isolated a 1.4-kilobase putative IS element from Agrobacterium tumefaciens NT1RE by selection for growth on sucrose medium. This putative IS element appears to be unique to Agrobacterium strains.

The book provides a cost effective way to put a faulty apple iphones and ipad back to a functioning state without having to spend too much.

.. infact i don't think i will ever forget this day ever, cos' the day was so eventful that i'll have at least 3 to 4 different things to remember this day by. Today morning i wrote in about my plans to attend the IIT Madras's culfest Saarang 2008, and also about the Annual Odyssey Quiz at the Music Academy. I got to be at both places today, and both of them rocked bigtime. Now thats not the real reason why this day will be so memorable, remember me talking about my semester results coming out today, i got them. And surprisingly i managed to get very good results this time, not that i managed to top my class ( whats the big deal about being the topper really ?), but i just managed to get through all my papers and that will suffice for me. I'm so happy now, if you know me personally you'll prolly know about the unfortunate incident that happened a few months back (May 22nd to be precise), a lot of damage was done on that day, and finally for all i care the repair work is done. Others might disagree with me on this ( people who understand what i'm talking about), cos' they might claim the incident did irreparable damage to my life . I say What the fuck is wrong with you ? ( that means i don't agree with you ) and like i said for all i care i'm fine with my life.
So after Saarang it was Quiz at Music Academy, the 2008 edition of the Odyssey Quiz. It rocked. The level of quizzing was a lot higher than i expected, to give you an idea of how things were, remember me talking about this guy from SVCE who won the General Quiz at the TransITion '08 in a previous post, he was taking part today and his team was even selected for the finals. But then at the end his team was placed last out of eight teams. The guy who i considered a quizzing champ a week earlier went down without a fight here, not that he wasn't good, only that the others are way better. That was just to give you an idea of how good it was. I even recorded the complete on my PMP and i think i'll be using a few questions from today's event at my college symposium quiz. More on this later, i need to write a detailed post, i'll surely put up a few questions for my readers this time around.
There is also this other reason for me to remember this day real long, today is the first anniversary of Venki's crash on the Pondy ride.
I know this post is really imcomplete with absolutely no details about the two events i attended today, doesn't that seem a little weird cos' i'll never miss writing about events like this.
That is cos' individual posts for each event is coming up real soon.
But i had a very long and tiring day, and i don't think i have anything left in me to write a long drawn write up. So this will have to wait till tomorrow.
Adios till then !!

12 June 2012
Posted by Michelle DevonshireThe automotive industry in the UK has unveiled ambitious plans to break records when it comes to output.Despite tough economic conditions, the sector has performed strongly over the past year and the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) has declared further gains are possible.According to the organization, vehicle manufacturers have "set their sights on breaking all-time manufacturing records by the end of 2015".The trade body pointed to over £5.5 billion pound in investments that have been made over the last 18 months to increase output, employment of thousands of new workers and the launch of new models in the UK as evidence of expansion.Projections from the SMMT now indicate the industry could surpass the 1.92 million cars manufactured in Britain during 1972, which is the highest number in a single year to date.More than two million vehicles are expected to be built in 2015, an increase of over 50 per cent compared with the 1.3 million units produced in 2011."The UK automotive industry is leading economic recovery with increased manufacturing output, growing export volumes and new jobs being created on the back of major international investment in the sector," declared SMMT Chief Executive, Paul Everitt, adding the skills, workforce flexibility, Government support and heritage of the UK sector make it a world leader.He stressed the importance of a continuing partnership between the Government and the industry, although the SMMT pointed out its forecasts are reliant upon both this and on the eurozone stabilizing by 2015.Car manufacturing in the UK has climbed by 11.8 per cent over the first four months of 2012 compared with the same period of last year. The country is home to seven volume manufacturers in the sector, three volume commercial vehicle firms and 11 bus and coach makers.The new car market in May climbed by 7.9 per cent to 162,288 units, the largest percentage climb in sales in 23 months, as private demand jumped by 14.3 per cent.

Giaretta Italia's Cristall'o Mosaic
Bubble-icious. We spotted Giaretta Italia's new Cristall'o glass mosaic collection in this month's Architectural Record. They say it's like a bowl of Fruit Loops.
What better way to wake up in the morning than to these cheerful, bubbly, mosiacs covering your bathroom walls? We love the varied sizes and colors. And the roundy nature of the individual tiles really does give a bubble-like effect.
