| South Carolina Democratic Primary Coverage - Saturday, January 26, 6 ...
NBC's Kevin Corke, meantime, is at Jillian's Restaurant, Columbia, South Carolina, the Edwards campaign in the senator's home birth state, is there. And that is where Kevin will be joining us throughout the evening. Kevin, good evening to you. KEVIN CORKE, NBC CORRESPONDENT: Keith, good evening to you. I think it is interesting to just take a look around Jillian's. I think there is a bit of excitement here because they just don't know. They don't know. Did he connect with the voters like he had hoped to? Would the fact that he is a native son really pay off today? But I also think there is an unease here, because the fact of the matter is, if not here, where? If not now, when? In the case of John Edwards, he has got to show some momentum. And this is a place where certainly he would have some advantages to do that, because some of our pre-election polling seemed to suggest that Edwards is a guy who seems to be taking advantage of or at least benefiting from the ongoing Obama-Clinton spat.
Wales see familiarity breeding success as Gatland opts for 13 Ospreys
The previous record was set in 1948 when Wales went to Twickenham armed with 10 Cardiff players, all of whom survived for two more games, but in those days the selectors had a working base of 16 clubs rather than the present format of four regions and an English outpost. .
Nanotech Filter Delivers Drinking Water
The researchers also gave the nanoparticles a negative charge. That's because impurities in water, including salt, organic matter and bacteria, also have negative charges. Try to put two negatively charged objects together and they will repel each other just like the same two polar ends of magnets. Laboratory tests showed that the new membranes demanded 50 percent less energy than conventional membranes. Such energy efficiency could reduce the total expense of desalinated water by as much as 25 percent. .
Rudd gets tough on WorkChoices
Senior Coalition figures admit that Labor now has a mandate to abolish WorkChoices, but they warn that Senate support for the ALP's changes is not guaranteed. The Coalition will retain control the Senate until July next year but Mr Rudd says Opposition senators must listen to the voters. "There could not be greater clarity about what we stand for and propose," he said. "Are the Liberals still so out of touch with working people in Australia that they think they have a mandate to retain WorkChoices? "Is that the sort of arrogant statement we're hearing from the Liberals two or three days after an election?" Earlier the former workplace relations minister Joe Hockey said he believed Labor had a clear mandate to get rid of the IR legislation.
