notes for the August 31st podcast

The software we had been using to record with, which I don't recommend, was Skype Recorder.

=================================

We were talking about contraceptives...and later, I found this!

"The Rape-aXe anti rape condom...

"...This device can later be used to identify the attacker and aid in the apprehension of the perpetrator.

"The Rape-aXe system consists of a latex sheath, which contains razor-sharp barbs. The device is worn in her vagina like a tampon. When the attacker attempts vaginal penetration the barbs attach themselves to the penis, causing great discomfort. The device must be surgically removed, which will result in the positive identification of the attacker and subsequent arrest..."

notes about the August 24th podcast

We use Skype to connect to eachother, and had lots of disconnections...probably due to rain and thunderstorms that were in our metropolitan area.

There were problems during the recording of the podcast...our Skype connection was lost many times, as was the end of the recording of our session.

==================================

The only song by Jerry Reed I could find information about regarding smoking is "Another Puff", which I had never heard until after Robert mentioned it.

BIG NEWS DAY:
TV NEWS BALANCES STORIES, NEW TECHNOLOGIES, LOCAL VS. NATIONAL COVERAGE


...KOLD showed a brief Skype video of the protest scene at 5...and then spent most of the rest of the block using Skype from the protest scene.


KOLD loves using the Skype computer phone/video technique. The station's logic is that by using a computer connection, the reporter can get to a scene and start reporting more quickly. It's also more flexible in terms of providing video from scenes that would be otherwise difficult to reach.


...The quality of the Skype footage paled in comparison to the more traditional live video displayed on the other two stations.

notes about the August 10th podcast

During the recording of the podcast, I did not fully understand what Robert was trying to describe to me...after recording the podcast, I found what he was talking about: it's "angiokeratoma". From what I've read about it, excision and grafting may be necessary to remove the lesion(s)...recovery time can range from three to twelve weeks.

Robert also has fibrous papule's of the nose and Poikiloderma of Civatte.
Thank God he does not need a ball grafting....Yet.

Don't play around with skin issues.

===================================

I like safety razors...

mainly because I don't shave very often, and need to use an "industrial strength" razor. (I know I really should learn to use a straight razor...)

notes about the August 3rd podcast

It's been estimated that bus riders are probably in the lower half of the income spectrum in Tucson...close to half the families are renters...

==============================

...a group of people...think if Sun Tran falls under the RTA umbrella, the poorest riders would not be protected from fare increases.


The city of Tucson is having budget troubles and the RTA has enough transit money set aside it says for the next five years at least.


http://www.kold.com/Global/story.asp?S=12913650


=========================

RTA Executive Director Gary Hayes has pushed for the transfer, despite the fact that an Arizona Daily Star calculation shows it could cause a $72 million shortfall in the RTA's budget over 15 years. Hayes said that hole will be filled with operating efficiencies and federal grants.


Several nonprofit organizations and advocates for the poor...against the transfer because they fear it will lead to higher bus rates. Some bus riders said the strike would be a big inconvenience to them and their families.
