Statement. On october 18th, f dardai s announced its independent lab detected talc in johnson and johnsons baby powder. They issued recall for one lot of its talcum powder. I sent an invitation to alex gorsky requests he appear before our subcommittee to discuss the Public Health concerns regarding j and j baby powder. Im disappointed that j and j has refused to comply with our request. While hes not refrained from making multiple public statements on this topic including offering written statements and speaking with media outlet, he has now avoided voluntarily testifying under oath before congress. In fact, this subcommittees very first hearing earlier this year examined possible carcinogens in talc based products. Johnson and johnson objected to the hearing claiming it had not been invited to participate. In a Media Release subsequent to our hearing johnson and johnson stated the subcommittee did not hear the preponderence that supports the safety of our product. We wanted mr. Gorsky

Steelers game kicking off at 8 25. Weather by then should be much better than what well potentially see this afternoon. Quiet now but doppler still picking up quite a bit of activity in kentucky about to move into West Virginia, southern ohio as well. Well watch this area. I think this is going to have a tough time holding together. The front itself daytime heating will generate some new storms. Currently the upper 60s and low 70s just about everywhere with a few mid60s out toward orange and harrisonburg. And futurecast, this is the timetable here. Lunch time quiet. We get into the start to pop a couple of showers 1 00, 3 00. By 3 00, 4 00, looks like the best chances will be south of washington but some of these storms here by 7 00 p. M. Could be strong to locally severe down in senior maryland, colonial beach, fredricksburg. Looks like up in baltimore by 7 00 or so most of that activity will have left. So thats good news. Andrea and nick . Thank you, howard. Heres whats in the news r
