		The term "teflon character" is used in reference to persons to whom criticism does not seem to stick.
		The phrase "Teflon president" was coined by Patricia Schroeder, saying of Ronald Reagan, "He's just like a Teflon frying pan: Nothing sticks to him." Her characterization did stick, and the phrase "Teflon President" entered the American political lexicon.
		British Prime Minister Tony Blair is often referred to in the press as "Teflon Tony", and Ralph Klein, long-time premier of the Canadian province of Alberta, was often referred to as a "Teflon" Premier.

		Teflon is very unreactive, and so is often used incontainers and pipework for reactive chemicals.
		Its melting point is 327 °C. Teflon is sometimes said to be a spin-off from the US space program with more down-to-earth applications, but actually its first significant use was in the Manhattan Project, as a material to contain highly-reactiveuranium hexafluoride.
		Amongst many other industrial applications, Teflon is used to coat certain types of hardened, armour-piercing bullets, so asto reduce the amount of wear on the firearm's rifling.

		(Teflon surface hydrophobicity changes upon adsorption of fungal protein, probably as a bilayer [1324].) The human plasma proteins fibrinogen, albumin and fibronectin influence bacterial adherence to Teflon [1325].
		This is believed to contribute to the thromboresistant character of these surfaces including resistance to thrombus deposition, embolization, and thrombotic occlusion [1330].
		For example, adsorption of xanthine oxidase onto Teflon distorts protein structure to the extent that all biologic activity is eliminated [901].

		Another problem is when using a Teflon pan and scraping the food with a sharp utensil that may cause tiny pieces of Teflon to get scratched off and get into your food.
		First I would like to say that the chemical in Teflon that was released by Dupont was a surfactant used in the production of Teflon and is not present in the pans when they are finished, and therefore you don't get any of this chemical by cooking in the pans.
		I've been doing research on cookware of all kinds and learned recently that Dupont, who pioneered teflon, was fined over $300 million by the EPA for not revealing the dangers of teflon 20(?) years ago, and also because the company dumped the teflon processing materials into the water supplies around their various plants.

	Bell-Mark FAQ - Customer support frequently asked questions
		Whether you're ordering kits, individual letters or numbers, or logos, measurements of the character size should be determined prior to calling Bell-Mark.
		Bell-Mark takes our measurements from the top of the character to the bottom of the character, not the width and not the dimension of the rubber piece including the character size.
		That measurement would be greater than the character size and not correspond with Bell-Mark part numbers and descriptions.

	Delta Green Gun Digest - Volume 2
		I would solve this with a new melee attack option, by which a character can flail about and have a better chance to connect with the target, but would be less likely to connect with something vital; characters with high skills would be adept at hitting the good bits and doing real harm.
		I'm calling the new option "Strike" (imaginative, huh?), and it just means that a character can opt to attack at double skill, but will inflict half weapon damage; as a corollary, impales would only be possible on a roll of 01-05, but would inflict their full damage (double the normal weapon damage).

		The Democrats do not challenge this ultra Teflon character who may well have stolen the 2000 election from them, after spending years doing super shady oil business and going AWOL from his Texas Air National Guard unit.
