While Enchantment is peppered with references to PowerPoint, Facebook, and other 21st century topics, much of the wisdom is as timeless as what you'll still find in How to Win Friends and Influence People.

The Japanese drugmaker, which two years ago paid $4.6 billion for Ranbaxy just as the problems emerged, shifted Dale Adkisson, a quality-control veteran who has worked at Novartis and Bristol-Myers Squibb (that’s him in the mug shot), to become quality assurance director at Ranbaxy’s US offices. The move comes more than a year after the FDA banned 30 Ranbaxy drugs and halted approval of new drugs made at two plants (see this and this), causing an embarassment for Daiichi, which noted in its latest financial report that the anticipated synergies with Ranbaxy may not be achieved i...

She played the “sexism” card. She thought she should have a short cut to promotion because of her gender. She did not get it so she had a hissy fit. Late last night on Sky News, Michael White of the Guardian also described Flint as having a "hissy fit". Iain Dale, sometimes too gentle for this world (Iain will defend Nadine Dorries even when she takes her position of the week), leapt to Flint’s defence.Because White started being sexist and I questioned Gordon Brown's mental state. He accused Caroline Flint of having a "hissy fit". "Don't be so sexist," I said. Eve Pollard nodded in ...

From all walks of working life, including professionals. Nadine Dorries has been roundly criticised for suggesting the MPs are now under so much pressure that there could be a suicide. They have brought it upon themselves, you may say, and so they have. But the atmosphere that has been whipped up over three weeks by the Daily Telegraph is resembling the Salem witch hunts. The public are baying for blood. Some MPs are more culpable than others. There may be an underlying political agenda. Can someone explain why Mr & Mrs Balls been given such a soft ride when Julie Kirkbride and her husband have not? Can any MP now get a fair hearing from the media?Today, Iain Dale mounts a defence of Tory MP, Julie Kirkbride.  Or maybe it is more a plea i...

The main stream media has, as always, tried to stay aloof from what they have dismissed as a internecine blog war between Guido, Iain Dale and Derek Draper.  It was far more than that. Derek Draper was dishonest with an overinflated c.v. but both he and Damien McBride had the Prime Minister’s ear. McBride was playing a major role in an underhand Labour Party smear campaign that was to be directed, with Draper's help, against leading members of the Conservative Party. And Nadine DorriesThe power of the i...

Some of the fly-over states will continue to chip away at it, but the principle will remain.  It amazes me how some of the so called Pro-Life brigade who are otherwise rational people lose all ability to have a sensible discussion when the topic of a woman’s right to have an abortion comes up.One of their favourite, specious old chestnuts is the story, which I cannot be bothered to recount, which has the punch line “you have just aborted Beethoven”. Iain Dale – normally one of the most rational and reasonable political bloggers – draws our attention to a topical rehash of the old chestnut. And he says:This is a video from Cat...

Tonight’s local debate party will be kicked off with music by the world’s most charismatic outlaw who’s sly compassion is as legendary as his high and lonesome zensoaked warble. Jimmie Dale Gilmore is a Saint. This is not hyperbole, but a well-known fact. I can’t find the words and believe me I’ve tried. Anyone familiar with my (cough cough) oeuvre might recall I spent my first year in Austin lost and determined to self-destruct in a flamboyant way but what you don’t know is it was Jimmie’s Wednesday night supper shows at Threadgills that kept me tethered to the planet.

That is the first of 12 suggestions from Dale Carnegie on how to “win people to your way of thinking“. A couple of the others that I really like are: Show respect for the other person’s opinion. Never say, “You’re wrong”. If you are wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically. Begin in a friendly way. Get the other person saying, “Yes, yes” immediately. Try honestly to see things from the other person’s point of view. Be sympathetic with the other person’s ideas and desires. In many ways, these remind of what I understand to be the basic attributes of diplomacy and negotiation. Obviously, there may come a point when these efforts fail and other, more drastic, approaches need to be taken. Some would say that we a... 29 Marbles blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1806278 Thu, 18 Sep 2008 11:55:21 +0100 1806278 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1458466&cid=t_123918_87_f&fid=34595&url=http%3A%2F%2Fnhsblogdoc.blogspot.com%2F2008%2F05%2Fnadine-dorries-loses-abortion-debate.html Nadine Dorries MPThe Abortion Debate is over for another few years, and the status quo has been maintained. Leaving aside the merits of the issues for a moment, I always enjoy these non-partisan “conscience” debates. As Iain Dale reports here, and rightly so, the Government should learn some lessons about the merit of free debates.In terms of the upper age limit, I would have favoured a reduction to 22 weeks. When I was doing neonatology, I spent many, many long hours trying to resuscitate 23 and 24 week babies. If a line has to be draw, and I think it does, I would be more comfortable with 22 weeks. But I am still strongly pro-choice. I have been trying to get Iain Dale to explain exactly where he stands. Today he says:Has this issue been permanently put to bed? No. And nor should it ...

Iain's headline is "Jacqui Smith admits she should not be home secretary". She does nothing of the sort.Like most family doctors, I frequently see young people who are dabbling in drugs, a small number who are serious users. Those who are politically aware are amused that half the Labour Cabinet admits to having indulged. As teenagers, as students, we are all on a learning curve, and we all have skeletons in the cupboard.  I am comfortable with Jacqui Smith's behaviour. I know she is human and honest.

I was suprised therefore to get the following comment under the article on Nadine and the 20 weeks campaign:Iain dale said...John, you are misrepresenting Nadine's position on abortion. She is emphatically not against abortion per se, and has made this clear time and time again.Wednesday, May 07, 2008 11:55:00 AMIain is a decent guy and does not misspeak, as Hillary would say. So I have done a little research on Nadine and "pro-choice". I assume that is what Iain means, though one could argue about the difference between "not being against abortion" and "not being against abortion per se"I can't find anything about Nadine being pro-choice. Indeed everything I have found is about her wa...

He has just developed maturity onset (type two) diabetes (DM2). Iain is approaching it with his customary good humour. (see here) He is using the TrueTrack Smart System to monitor his sugars. It’s an excellent system, though one of many. Iain is currently in the USA. He forgot to take his test strips with him, so he had to buy a packet in an American pharmacist. $57 thank you very much.

Prior to this year, Dale says he has had about thirty ECT sessions over the course of his illness and feels that overall it has been the most beneficial of all the treatments he has tried. I watched several of Dale’s videos and found the majority of them to be pretty informative. For example, in the day two video Dale talks about how the ECT of today is different from the ECT of the past and about how ECT is negatively portrayed in the media and movies such as “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest”. Also in the day two video; Dale describes exactly how ECT is delivered today and how he feels after the treatments. Mr. Shankins ...

France had been diagnosed with cancer in 1999 -- he never publicly disclosed any details about his disease -- and had been in poor health for much of the past 10 years.
