Dragon capsule docks at space station....


Hadfield tweets unmanned spacecraft brought fruit, peanut butter and notes from home


The commercial supply ship Dragon has arrived at the International Space Station after a shaky start.
Station astronauts used a Canadian robotics arm on Sunday morning to latch onto the supply ship.
The California-based SpaceX company had to struggle with the Dragon following Friday's launch from the Cape Canaveral Air Force station in Florida.
A clogged pressure line or stuck valve prevented the Dragon's thrusters from working, and it took flight controllers several hours to gain control and salvage the mission.

.Consumers Union Unveils New Health Insurance Poll Results*


Lynn Quincy, senior health policy analyst for Consumers Union, the policy arm of Consumer Reports, will share new poll results when she testifies Wednesday at a Senate Commerce committee hearing. Her testimony will focus on the 2012 roll-out of the Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) form which allows consumers to compare health insurance plans apples-to-apples and cuts through confusing jargon using standardized health plan descriptions.
When the new form was pre-tested with consumers, it was well received. Experience with the form during fall 2012 open enrollment reinforces these favorable findings. A new, nationally representative survey conducted by Consumer Reports shows consumers who used the SBC reported a good experience, with very few (9%) reporting they were dissatisfied with the clear presentation of the benefits and costs of the health plan. When asked to rate the SBC against other common sources of health plan information, these consumers ranked the SBC above other sources - like employer provided health plan comparisons - in terms of helpfulness.
