Sen. Joe Manchin on getting economic stimulus passed
With vaccine distribution beginning this week, America can finally see the light at the end of the COVID tunnel. But that tunnel remains several months long, and that means economic pain and hardship for millions across the U.S.
Axios Re:Cap speaks with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), who's helping spearhead a bipartisan and bicameral effort to get economic stimulus passed, about the odds of success and what's in the plan.
Dan Primack: We're joined now by Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia. Senator, let's just talk with kind of big picture probabilities here. I know you have a bill that's been split into two parts. How confident are you that one or both of those parts could actually get passed by both houses of Congress by the end of this week?
Senator Joe Manchin: Well, what we did, we took the $748 billion bill, which has 100% support both Democrats and Republicans. And that one will pass. It has to, because this is an emergency relief COVID bill. And emergency means that what do people lose by Christmas or the end of the year? All their lifelines are gone.
OK. The businesses are having more trouble because they're closing down more now because of the outbreak of the COVID. And this is not going to end probably until the second quarter I would think of next year. So this gets us up to April 1 first quarter. That's an emergency bill.
The other bill, basically it's $160 billion for state and local, which they're hurting too. And we're trying to do that. I voted for both. My name's on both of them, but the other one has more concerns with Democrats and Republicans about basically the protections against any type of lawsuits. And Democrats saying, that's fine. I don't think we want anybody to be sued out of business, but we don't want to just throw caution to the wind and workplace safety, things of this sort. So they're trying to work through that. All the smart lawyers are trying to find language that they can either all agree to or confuse each other. Not that they don't know what they've said. One of the two.
DP: So on that first one on the larger package, you said emergency COVID relief, the extended unemployment benefits, reauthorization, PPP, etc. You expressed that you're confident. Have you, say, spoken with Mitch McConnell about getting that on the floor this week?
JM: They're basically taking our bill and putting it into the omnibus bill, which has to pass at the end, you know, for us to have government continue — the spending package. That's the end of the year omnibus bill. They're using our template — our bill. They're taking our bill section by section because it's already been vetted. We already had legislative language written. It's ready to go.
DP: Can I just ask specifically either you or any of the other kind of, I guess it's 11 senators now, have any of you had direct conversations with McConnell to be sure it gets there.
JM: Yes. I've been talking to on the Democrat staff and basically Lisa and Susan Collins and all, and, and Cassidy and Portman have been working on their side and making sure that's the framework. They're going to acknowledge that today as a framework they're working off of.
DP: I wonder, you know, the things that both sides agree on, as you say, that there's so much of this, that both Democrats and Republicans agree on and have agreed on for months at this point.
Monday morning quarterbacking a little bit: Was it a mistake, do you think, for Democrats to not take the so-called skinny bills that the Republicans were offering back in September and October? Because since those were things that both sides agreed on and that money would be flowing already?
JM: Well, the money could have been flowing already, but the money is needed now. This is when it all expired. So why would they take something when it should have been a lot more? They started, if you remember Daniel, this started basically with $3 trillion deal called the Heroes, which is Nancy Pelosi's. Then she cut that down to $2 trillion. And then we had basically Mitch McConnell had his Hills act at $1.1 trillion, and that was in July, sent us home for recess in August, which we should have never gone home, and then we come back after recess in September, he's got a new bill on called the skinny at $500 million.
And I'm thinking, 'Wow, that's not dealing in good faith'. Every economist, everybody has looked and seen the need. We had to keep this economy going. And the lowest I ever saw anyone go to was $1.5. trillion. So here we are, then I'm understanding they start negotiating with Mnuchin and Nancy Pelosi. And Mnuchin before the election came in for $1.8, for whatever reason, that was turned down. And then basically we were at a stand still.
The election's over, the election is over on the 4th. I call my friend Susan Collins and congratulate her on her victory on the 5th. We start talking. So Susan, we've got to do something. They're not going anywhere. And this is a stalemate. They weren't even talking. So she said, you're right. So we started talking to all of our friends. At Lisa's, we have a dinner, then a week or two later, at Lisa's, after we'd all been talking, at Lisa Murkowski's house, and we have four Democrats and four Republicans. And that's how all this started. And we committed to each other we would stay bipartisan all the way through.
So with that, we had Mark Warner. We had basically on the Democrat side, myself, Mark Warner, we had Jeanne Shaheen and we had Dick Durbin. On the Republican side, we had Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, we had Bill Cassidy and Mitt Romney. So we had four and four. That was, that was the first eight. And then we grew immediately from that and brought in the problem solvers from the house — Josh. So we had bicameral now. We had Josh Gottheimer and Tom Reed. Then it grew from that some more because people said we want something to happen. That's how we got to seven.
DP: When you say you want it, that people want something to happen. You are getting some pushback, to be honest on both sides. Bernie Sanders, Josh Hawley, so from the left and the right specifically on this issue of direct checks, which we saw in the Cares Act, you know, back in April. What's the best argument for not including that in this bill?
JM: Well, the only argument that we have is not just best — it is the argument. It's the commonsense approach. This is an emergency bill. If a person still has a paycheck. A person still has a job and they have money coming to their home, and there's an unemployed person who's going to lose everything at the end of December, they got no job to go to. We've had everybody closed down because of all the jobs and economy has gone away. And basically the pandemic is back and ravaging. So they have nothing. Which one's the emergency?
DP: Well the same argument could have been made back in April, correct?
JM: Oh, yeah, you can make the same argument. That's you know, when we did another extension, you know, the big bill you're talking about.
DP: Well, right. Because I mean, I'm saying you supported the Cares Act and that same thing was true. Right? There were people who hadn't lost their jobs in April, who continued to get paychecks, but we still sent out checks to those people back in April.
JM: They were trying to stimulate the economy, OK. But when had a deadlock, Daniel, there's a deadlock and nothing was moving. When you have a deadlock, you can't throw everything and think everything's going to stick and everybody's going to go along with it. So we knew what we had to deal with. It took us two weeks just to negotiate what would be our amount. To get to $908 billion, that took two weeks of back and forth, putting the emergencies together, putting what people wanted and desires together.
We would take an extra $300 in a heartbeat. That's $1,200 a person. That's $1.2 trade to continue to stimulate this economy. Joe Biden's coming in in January, our President, he will evaluate it immediately, talk to his economists and come with a plan forward.
DP: Speaking of that plan forward, has your group spoken with Biden about that plan forward and what he wants to do Jan. 20?
JM: We have not. He's waiting to see what we do right now. If we can even fill the gap that's going to be left. He's going to be in one heck of a precarious situation. This country will be in a free fall if we don't pass this COVID emergency relief package now.
DP: Speaking of which, that second piece, the state and local, including the liability, you talk about the lawyers are trying to figure it out right now. Is there any particular reason for Americans to believe that that piece will indeed get passed at least before Jan. 20, no matter who wins in Georgia?
JM: You're talking about the state and local?
DP: Correct. The state local.
JM: First of all. So you'll know, the Republican, my Republican friends, truly, the majority of their caucus does not believe that the states and local need any money. They truly believe that. So we've got them and we showed them. I said, this is based on need.
Before it went out on population, whatever the population was. That's what you got. The smallest states all got $1.25 billion. Then everything was based on need. This one's based on need. And I'm saying, listen, if there's a need in an emergency, you might not have a need in your state, but I can tell you, a lot of other states are going to lose front-line service — first responders, essential workers. They can't keep this program alive, and they're going to have to tax the living crap out of people just to try to keep anything surviving.
So we got them to agree to that, OK. That was a big move. But they wanted to make sure the need base was there. That means: What's your revenue loss? What's your expenses, COVID related? So you just can't get money. They got a third, a third of the money went out on population, not 100%. The rest of the two-thirds of money went based strictly on need, Daniel, strictly on need.
DP: Back over the summer, it seemed, at least from the outside, looking in, most of the negotiations were going on between Nancy Pelosi and Steven Mnuchin in the White House. At this point, is the White House any tangible part of these discussions?
JM: Everybody's been kept abreast. This has not been done in secrecy.
DP: I don't mean secrecy, but are they actually at the table?
JM: No, no, leadership's not at the table. Mitch and Chuck and his staff is not at the table.
OK, neither is the White House. But everything that we have done, and when we come to an agreement, we want them to know what we've agreed on so that it's not going to be a surprise. They've been kept abreast of all the things that we've been able to agree on, which I think they've been pleased because for whatever reasons, they couldn't get to that point in their negotiations. But we were able to break through and that's really what bipartisanship is.
You know, bipartisanship is uncomfortable because you have to have concessions. You gotta be willing to get compromise. And people don't want to compromise because everybody's in a tribal mode. 'I got my side. I'm on this tribe and my tribe's right. And we're going to win.'
I'm sorry, government doesn't work that way in America.
DP: Final question for you. Speaking of that, tribalism. A possible hypothetical: Were the democratic candidates to win the two Senate seats in Georgia, you'd have a 50-50 Senate. There's a perception that you, you Sen. Manchin, would become arguably the swing vote in the Senate, the most important senator there. How do you kind of conceive of that? And are you excited about that prospect? Are you nervous about that prospect?
JM: I'm not excited or nervous. I'll just continue to do what I've always done. I'm the most centrist voter out of 535 people in Congress. Do you know that? If you look at the vote, I'm about 50-50. How can you be in one party or the other party and still vote 50-50?
Well, where I come from, I'm a dem- a proud West Virginia Democrat. I've never met a Democrat who was always right. And I've never met Republicans that were always wrong, and I've liked a lot of their ideas. So I always say this, if I can go home and explain it, Daniel, I can vote for it. I don't care if it's a hardcore Democrat position. If it makes no sense back home in West Virginia, I can't vote it to support it. And I've kept to that and I will continue to keep to that.
So I've told them, I'm not voting to end the filibuster. I will not vote. I will not vote to pack the court. So if I'm the one vote, I want you to know up front that's what's going to happen. So don't get upset.
DP: Sen. Joe Manchin, West Virginia. Thank you so much for joining us.
JM: Thank you, Daniel. Enjoyed it.

Democrats call on Schumer for speedy Trump impeachment trial
Incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Photo: Alex Wong/Getty Images
Democrats are in a dilemma of their own making, and now they want incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to wrap up President Trump's impeachment trial as fast as possible, two sources familiar with the discussions tell Axios.
Why it matters: The party wanted to hold the president accountable for helping incite last week's Capitol attack but the actual mechanism for doing so — a Senate trial — is a balky tool that will inhibit President-elect Joe Biden from launching his effort to heal the country and its economy.

Episode 8: The siege

Beginning on election night 2020 and continuing through his final days in office, Donald Trump unraveled and dragged America with him, to the point that his followers sacked the U.S. Capitol with two weeks left in his term. Axios takes you inside the collapse of a president with a special series.
Episode 8: The siege. An inside account of the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6 that ultimately failed to block the certification of the Electoral College. And, finally, Trump's concession.
On Jan. 6, White House deputy national security adviser Matt Pottinger entered the West Wing in the mid-afternoon, shortly after his colleagues' phones had lit up with an emergency curfew alert from D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser.

History in Bloom: The New Jersey Botanical Garden
Visiting the Garden State's botanical showcase.
By | | April 8, 2013
With more than 96 acres, the New Jersey Botanical Garden has 13 specialty gardens and is home to 5,000 species of trees, shrubs and flowers.
Photo by Frank Veronsky.
It's been almost 100 years since Clarence McKenzie Lewis, an investment banker and celebrated horticulturalist, set out to create a botanical showcase on New Jersey's northern border. His vision endures today as the New Jersey Botanical Garden.
The 96-acre spread has something for everyone who loves the outdoors: acres of pristine gardens, a historic manor house, hiking trails, and the adjacent Ringwood State Park for picnics, biking and more hiking. May is an especially beautiful time to visit, but there's something new blooming virtually every week in spring and summer.
The story of the gardens starts in 1801, when the land was cleared for farming. Jump to 1891, when the tract was sold to gentleman-farmer Francis Stetson, who commissioned a substantial residence and extensive farm buildings, eventually expanding the estate—which he named Skylands—to more than 1,000 acres. Lewis, a Jersey native, purchased the estate after Stetson's death in 1922.
Lewis, a trustee of the New York Botanical Garden, commissioned John Russell Pope, architect of the Jefferson Memorial and the National Gallery of Art, to design a stately Tudor Gothic home on the grounds. The granite exterior of the 45-room mansion, Skylands Manor, was quarried from the eastern part of the property. Lewis also hired landscape designers Ferruccio Vitale, known for his work on the National Mall and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and Alfred Geiffert, who designed the grounds of Princeton University and Rockefeller Center. Together, Lewis, Geiffert and Vitale created the magical country-estate landscape that exists today.
Lewis collected plant specimens throughout the United States, England and Europe. His gardens appeal to all the senses, stressing symmetry, color, texture, form and fragrance.
After Lewis died in 1959, the estate was purchased by the state, in 1966, and designated as the New Jersey Botanical Garden in 1984.
Today's elegantly landscaped grounds feature more than 5,000 species of trees, shrubs and flowers. There are 13 specialty garden: May bloomers include the Peony Garden and Crab Apple Allée, a half-mile stretch of bountiful pink blossoms. The Wildflower Garden, with its wooded trails and stepping-stone bridges, also tends to bloom by early May. The fragrant Lilac Garden has more than 100 varieties of the lushly flowering plants.
Be sure to stroll the area around Skylands Manor. The house is open to the public one Sunday each month, and inside you'll see antique paneling, majestic fireplaces and intricate stained glass. Enjoy the exterior features any time: the decorative ironwork, the fabulous weathered-stone façade and the sags and ripples in the 100-year-old slate roof.
Make a complete day of your journey with a visit to Ringwood State Park, the 5,000-acre expanse a mile down the road. Bring a picnic and enjoy the biking paths or hike one of the 14 marked nature trails.
The New Jersey Botanical Garden is located at 2 Morris Road, Ringwood, and is open 8 am to 8 pm daily. Admission is free; parking is $5 during high season (weekends in the summer). Guided tours (approximately 45 minutes) are conducted at 2 pm every Sunday, May through October. For information: njbg.org or 973-962-9534. Ringwood State Park is open 8 am to 8 pm daily. Admission is free and parking is plentiful. There are ample picnic tables; it is a carry in/carry out facility. Skyland Manor House Tours are available on select Sundays. Admission is $7.

The Open Journal of Psychiatry & Allied Sciences (OJPAS®) is a peer-reviewed biannual academic journal. New ideas come from fresh minds before they are bogged down by conventional thinking. In the journal, we plan to tap those materials, ideas, and discussions. A long felt need of present day psychiatry is to understand the cultural influence on symptoms, management, and most importantly, on prevention of mental illnesses. This can be undertaken only by reporting and analysing the cases in that cultural rubrick. The journal aims to be the platform for discussions towards the same. It publishes editorial, article, research, case, and commentary in the fields of psychiatry, psychiatric nursing, psychiatric social work, clinical psychology, allied behavioural and medical sciences.
In addition, OJPAS® will bring the psychiatric research from Low And Middle Income Countries (LAMIC) as well as LAMIC-related psychiatric issues to global platform. In other words, indexation of scientific literature related to psychiatry from LAMIC in major bibliographic databases globally. The journal will publish rare/unique psychiatry cases in LAMIC, LAMIC-related topics like problems faced/unaddressed issues of psychiatry, along with research reports containing data from LAMIC. It aims at formation of a global consortium for research and exchange of clinical dialogues on psychiatry and allied health sciences with an attempt to bridge the LAMIC-non LAMIC gap.
Although, all efforts have been put so as to implement zero tolerance towards plagiarism, yet we would appeal to all budding researchers to shun the plagiarism and let us start thinking in line with scientific ethics. Authors willing to submit the manuscript for potential publication in OJPAS®, shall ensure that the manuscript submitted for review is a bonafied record of their own genuine works, not submitting the works of other authors, i.e. violating the copyright act and has not even been submitted for review to any other publishing agency. The Editorial Board of the journal will support quality control of the contents and improvement of the journal standards. Apart from that, deals with compliance, adherence, and conflict of interest.
OJPAS® is Open Access Journal. The journal adheres to the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) [http://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/list_signatures] definition of open access: that users have the right to "read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles". The journal offers 'Platinum' open access model. Platinum open access model means that there is no Article Processing Charge (APC), also known as publication fee, charged to authors and articles are immediately available on the journal website once published. Moreover, the journal allows the author(s) to hold the copyright and to retain publishing rights without restrictions. OJPAS® follows the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).

Sapheon completes enrolment in US pivotal study of VenaSeal
Sapheon announced on 9 September 2013 that it has completed enrolment in the US pivotal study of the VenaSeal Sapheon Closure System. According to the company, 242 patients have been enrolled in the study.
VenaSeal is a minimally invasive, single use kit for the treatment of venous reflux by means of a tumescent-free, transcatheter delivery of Sapheon's proprietary medical adhesive to the diseased great saphenous vein. The system is currently under investigation in a 1:1 randomised pivotal study at 10 US clinical sites to determine its safety and effectiveness compared to radiofrequency thermal ablation.
In addition, the company announced that it has raised US$19.8 million in its Series B Preferred equity offering from current and new accredited investors. The funding will support Sapheon's US pivotal study through final submission to the FDA of the premarket approval application for the VenaSeal Sapheon Closure System.
Don Crawford, Sapheon's president and CEO, stated, "We are fortunate to have attracted knowledgeable, sophisticated investors who recognise the potential for VenaSeal to become the future standard of care for a large and growing US patient population of venous reflux sufferers. We are also fortunate to have successfully recruited leading US physicians with large, active vein practices to participate as clinical investigators in our pivotal study. Achieving full enrolment in the study in six months speaks to the high degree of interest and enthusiasm our investigators have in the potential of VenaSeal to provide a novel, efficacious solution to venous reflux disease."
The VenaSeal Sapheon Closure System received CE mark approval in September 2011. Over 1,000 veins in patients in Europe and Hong Kong have been successfully treated with VenaSeal without tumescent anaesthesia or post-procedure compression hose therapy.


On many traditional report cards, students receive one grade for reading, one for math, one for science and so on. On a standards-based report card, each of these subject areas is divided into a list of skills and knowledge that students are responsible for learning. Students receive a separate mark for each standard. We developed the standards based report cards in 2013 to align with the Common Core Standards. This year we will modify and refine our work. The committee will meet in January to begin this work. Committee members include: Andrea McKay, Anna Piasczyk, Alyssa Koerner, Jane Foster, Tracy Lafreniere, Carla Iadevaia, Jennifer Albrecht, Clarissa Russell, Amanda Melfi, Sherry Senecal, Sarah Glover and Andrea Lafleur.


This is a trial run. Can you guess? Look at the photo as if you were reading a book, and see how many Trollbeads you can identify. First row left to right (starting at the top), second row left to right, etc.
Good luck! If this is successful I will try a different photo each month with a bead as a prize. The real photo will be revealed on Friday.
Now I have to figure out who won.... it's close!
Re: First Challenge! Photo revealed!
What a cool picture!! Guess I better go and find the calculator!!!
Please let me know if it is too hard, I can change that. Colors need not be noted. If you see a bubble, stripes, flower, dillo, etc., it just needs to be identified as such.
no-no! I'm not complaining, sooooo ready for a TB challenge!
Bumping back to the top! Give it a go, can you guess just one?
Several, dó you want Them in a pm?

Thanks for a great challenge Anna. let's do it again.

Q: How to compute word rank in perl I have a program where I read in a document and then put all the words in a hash delete repeats and add to frequency of that word.
So for example:
KEY:   VALUE:
dog   2
cat   4
rat   1
Now I was told I need to compute the rank of each word and print those stats.  What does this mean exactly?  What type of math do I need to be looking at?  If someone could point me to a document talking about word rank that could help.
Thanks

A: If you delete repeats, you won't have a "frequency" or at least they'll all be at most 1, so don't do that.  If you're talking about merging the count of repeats (I think you are) then I'd have to assume the rank you're referring to is the number of occurences for each word in the file.
If you're merging properly you'll have an array with key value pairs, sort on the value descending to rank.
BTW - this sounds like a homework question, if so - look for a quick sort to sort the array on the value.  That's all the more I'll say.  HTH.

A: Ranking is simply ordering so that the most frequent word has rank 1. Take a look at Zipf's law for how we expect words to behave with respect to their frequency rank in a suitably large corpus.

Airstrikes, street battles in Syrian Kurdish town
MURSITPINAR, Turkey (AP) — Bolstered by intensified U.S.-led coalition airstrikes targeting militants from the Islamic State group, Kurdish militiamen fought pitched street battles Wednesday with the extremists in a Syrian Kurdish border town near Turkey, making small advances, activists and officials said.
Elsewhere in Syria, in a stark reminder of the country's wider civil war, a Syrian lawmaker was gunned down in the central province of Hama — the latest assassination to target a figure linked to President Bashar Assad's government.
In the border town of Kobani, members of the Kurdish People's Protection Units, or YPG, were making progress against Sunni militants, hours after the U.S.-led coalition stepped up airstrikes in and around the town, said Asya Abdullah, a Syrian Kurdish leader.
The Pentagon said Tuesday that 21 airstrikes against Islamic State targets near Kobani overnight Monday marked the largest number there in a 24-hour period since the air campaign in Syria began last month.
Abdullah, the co-president of Syria's powerful Kurdish Democratic Union Party told The Associated Press that Kurdish fighters have advanced near the hill of Tel Shair that overlooks part of the town, taking advantage of the air raids that slowed the push by the militants. Abdullah spoke by phone from Kobani.
The U.S. and its allies have also struck oil facilities to try to cut off smuggling by the extremists, hurting the group's income in both Iraq and Syria.
The Paris-based International Energy agency said in a report that U.S.-led airstrikes have significantly weakened the Islamic State's ability to produce, operate oil fields and smuggle oil — a major source of income for the militants. In its monthly report released Tuesday, the agency said the aerial bombardment has brought production down to around 20,000 barrels per day from a high of about 70,000 in the summer.
But in remarks underscoring the region's layered crises, Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc mocked the Kurdish fighters defending Kobani, comparing their struggle against the Islamic State group with the guerrilla war of the affiliated Kurdish PKK rebels, who have fought a three-decade insurgency in Turkey, largely in mountainous regions in Turkey's east.
"They are not able to put up a serious fight there," Arinc told reporters in the southeastern city of Adiyaman.
"It is easy to fight on the mountain against the military, police, the teacher and the judge. It is easy to kidnap people, but they are not able to fight in Kobani," he said. "I could say a lot more, but let me leave it at that so that they are not embarrassed."
The harsh comments also reflected Turkey's delicate position on the fighting in Kobani. On Tuesday, Turkey launched airstrikes against Kurdish rebels inside its borders, defying please from the U.S. to instead focus on the IS.
The Islamic State group launched its offensive on Kobani in mid-September, capturing dozens of nearby Kurdish villages, as well as about a third of the town. The fighting in and around Kobani has killed more than 500 people and forced more than 200,000 people to flee across the border into Turkey.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which has a network of activists around the country, said Wednesday's clashes were taking place in Kobani's eastern neighborhoods as well as the southern edge of the town. The Observatory also reported airstrikes by the U.S.-led coalition in the town Wednesday, and plumes of smoke rising from the strikes were visible across the border in Turkey.
In Syria's restive central province of Hama, gunmen opened fire late Tuesday at lawmaker Waris al-Younes' car as he was travelling on a road linking the city of Hama with the town of Salamiyeh, the state-run SANA news agency said.
