In Defense (sort of) of Trial Lawyers
From the December 15, 2003 issue: Their excuses are well known, their virtues less so.
Dec 15, 2003, Vol. 9, No. 14 • By WILLIAM TUCKER
MARK BOCCI is a personal injury lawyer in Lake Oswego, Oregon. In the 1980s, he took the case of a Filipino-American high school student who had suffered a grievous injury playing football. Kneed in the head by an all-state fullback, "Richard" suffered headaches and dizziness for two days, then collapsed with massive brain injuries. The doctor who saved his life said, "I'm not sure I did him a favor." Richard had very few motor skills left and required 24-hour care.
Bocci decided to pursue a product liability case against the manufacturer of the helmet. This was a risky approach, since all football helmets go through an impact- testing process before being marketed. The helmet in question had passed the test. With such a sanction at hand, manufacturers are usually able to defend themselves.
Sifting through 20,000 pages of discovery documents, Bocci found nothing incriminating. After an exhaustive search, however, he did uncover two other deaths and several cases of brain injury involving the same helmet. It turned out the manufacturer had quietly settled these cases to avoid publicity. The company also offered to settle with Richard's family now.
But Bocci's concern had been aroused. Pushing further, he finally turned up the former CEO of a rival manufacturer who had a story to tell. The CEO explained that the helmet in question was fitted with a "front in-sizer" to adjust for head size. This accessory came in two different sizes. One had passed the impact tests but the other--a one-inch in-sizer--had failed. Richard had been wearing a one-inch sizer.
By the time the case came to trial, Bocci and his partner, Jim Pippin, had invested six years and $350,000 of their own money in the case. "My wife and I had just bought our dream house," says Bocci. "Then we realized we couldn't keep it. One night we sat down with our two teenage daughters at the dinner table and told them we had a choice--either we could stay where we lived or sell the house for Richard's sake. I'll be eternally proud of them that they didn't hesitate a moment. We moved."
Three years later, an appeals court finally approved the $11.2 million verdict Bocci won before a jury. The company immediately withdrew the helmet from the market. "We believe we prevented numerous other injuries," says Bocci, who this year was inducted into the Inner Circle of Advocates, the exclusive society of the nation's top 100 trial lawyers. "Richard is making tremendous progress," he adds. "He's got a 300-word vocabulary and is completely ambulatory. Full-time therapy has been a tremendous help."
TRIAL LAWYERS over the last couple of decades have become the mainstay of the Democratic party and the nemesis of the Republicans. A few years ago, Senator Howell Heflin, the Alabama Democrat, announced memorably that "Jews, labor unions, and trial lawyers" were the financial pillars of his party. Trial lawyers certainly have the wherewithal to make major donations. The Manhattan Institute has just issued a condemnation of the plaintiff bar titled "Trial Lawyers, Inc." The profession rakes in "almost $40 billion per year in revenues--50 percent more than Microsoft or Intel and twice those of Coca-Cola," trumpets the study. "[It] might well be the most profitable business in the world."
The ideological lines of demarcation are only becoming more entrenched. President Bush's attempt to curb medical malpractice and class action lawsuits have just failed to muster the 60 votes necessary for cloture in the Senate. Congress's effort to put a limit on asbestos damages also collapsed. With Senator John Edwards running a dark-horse campaign for president almost completely financed by his fellow trial lawyers, the plaintiffs' bar is gearing for Armageddon. "If Bush gets elected with big majorities in Congress," Edwards told the Inner Circle last summer, "you'll get tort reform like you've never seen before."
Yet behind this make-or-break political posturing, there are odd cultural crosscurrents. Although they have obvious Populist roots, trial lawyers in many ways fit the contemporary Republican ideal.
First, trial lawyers are self-made men (and they are nearly all men). With eerie predictability, they rise from humble beginnings and blue-collar backgrounds in the central portions of the country. Philip Corboy, the Chicago-based dean of personal injury lawyers, is the son of a Chicago police officer. John O'Quinn, the Houston billionaire who pioneered breast-implant litigation, is the son of an auto mechanic and himself trained at GM's Mister Goodwrench school before deciding to attend college. Ron Motley, the South Carolina lawyer who directed the 1998 tobacco litigation, is the son of a gas station owner. Mark Bocci's parents owned a grocery store. John Edwards's father--as he repeats constantly in his campaign--worked in a South Carolina cotton mill.

235 , P < 0.05), β3 (correlation coefficients were 0. 333 , P < 0.01 ) subunits. Discussion Chemotherapy resistance has been proven to be a very difficult issue in the treatment of ovarian cancer. The mechanisms of resistance and appropriate countermeasures targeting these mechanisms have become hotspots in ovarian cancer research. Previous learn more studies of the mechanism of resistance in ovarian cancer mainly focused on drug concentration in tumor cells, DNA damage repair mechanisms, glutathione-dependent detoxification enzyme system activity, and other aspects. In recent years, a number of studies on malignant tumor drug resistance have found
that tumor drug resistance is related to changes in adhesion molecule composition, the adhesion abilities of tumor cells, and the resultant cytoskeletal rearrangements and signal transduction pathway activation. Therefore, a new mechanism of tumor drug resistance—cell adhesion mediated drug resistance (CAM-DR) has been proposed [2–4]. The adhesion of tumor cells to the surrounding environment can improve cell survival and anti-apoptotic ability. Integrins are important cell surface adhesion molecules as they are
EX 527 chemical structure receptors for many extracellular matrix components. Integrin receptors can regulate cell growth, differentiation, and metastasis through Selleckchem QNZ transmembrane signal transduction. Tumor cell growth and metastasis are both closely related to drug resistance. Metastasized tumor cells are more likely to be drug resistant and resistant tumor cells have a stronger ability to metastasize or invade. The relationship between integrins and drug resistance
is gradually gaining almost recognition, but the research is still in early stages [7–9]. Damiano et al  found that the expression of integrin α4β1 in the drug-resistant strain, RPMI8226/S, of human multiple myeloma cell strain RPMI8226 was significantly higher than that in sensitive strains; furthermore, extracellular matrix-coated cells significantly increased the cells’ tolerance of the chemotherapeutic drugs melphalan and doxorubicin and reduced the rate of apoptosis. Similar findings have been observed for leukemia, glioma, breast cancer and small cell lung cancer. In preliminary studies, we have also demonstrated that the ovarian cancer cell line, RMG-I-h, with high expression of the integrins α5β1 and αvβ3, can increase drug resistance to 5-FU, carboplatin, and paclitaxel [11, 12]. Integrin glycosylation status has been shown to affect the strength of integrin-ligand binding and the formation of the glycosidic bond catalyzed by glycosyltransferase affecting the glycosylation status of integrins.

Let that sink in for a moment. Your teens weren’t born yet.
Now, while that does mean we should maybe start talking about an Edwards for Sharon Draper it also means that it’s not flying off the shelves like it did ten years ago. While Walter Dean Myers has a lasting and important impact on young adult literature those books aren’t circulating like they did years ago either.
- They are old.
- Some high school readers are drawn to street lit instead.
- Teens don’t want to be lectured to via fiction. (The social contract? Really?)
- They’ve become classroom books and we know nothing zaps appeal faster than that.
So, while I wait for Dana Davidson to write another book and for someone to re-issue Janet McDonald’s books with covers that don’t make kids run away screaming here are some authors whose books are moving with my teens. I only have to look at long list of lost copies in the catalog to know what’s hot (1)(2).
Earl Sewell (3)
(1)There are of course other authors like Travis Hunter, ReShonda Tate Billingsley, Stephanie Perry Moore, Darrien Lee, and Babygirl Daniels but those titles are not currently as popular in my system.
(2) Bluford and Urban Underground are sitting on the shelf more than they ever have. I’m not sure if that’s true in branches.
(3)All the Kimain Tru titles circulate, but Sewell & McKayhan are by far the two I am asked for the most.

The LM27966 is a highly integrated charge-pump-based display LED driver. The device can drive up to 6 LEDs in parallel with a total output current of 180mA. Regulated internal current sources deliver excellent current and brightness matching in all LEDs.
The LED driver current sources are split into two independently controlled groups. The primary group, which can be configured with 4 or 5 LEDs, can be used to backlight the main phone display. An additional, independently controlled led driver is provided for driving an indicator or other general purpose LED function. The LM27966 has an I2C compatible interface that allows the user to independently control the brightness on each bank of LEDs.
The device provides excellent efficiency without the use of an inductor by operating the charge pump in a gain of 3/2, or in Pass-Mode. The proper gain for maintaining current regulation is chosen, based on LED forward voltage, so that efficiency is maximized over the input voltage range.
The LM27966 is available in a small 24-pin Leadless Leadframe WQFN-24 package.

Another must visit when eating out in Jakarta is the Mastro Meat Market. Located in the popular area Kebayoran Baru, a place that seems to have been designed for the Youth of the city. We took a taxi from our hotel to Jalan Wolter Monginsidi and stepped out to the sound of club tunes blaring from a boom box on the street. There were clothes, music, sunglasses and of course food stalls dotted around and the area was vibrant and had a great atmosphere.
Mastro Meat Market is an ingenious restaurant, simple and effective in both design and concept.
You walk in to an array of tables dressed up cafe style, checked table cloths, urban wall hangings and of course the star attraction – a back wall lined with a fresh butchers counter.
However, it’s not just your regular butchers counter. This counter is stocked with the finest meats, steaks and sausages, all halaal! A wonderful sight for any muslim food lover. All counter foods are available to buy, as you would in a normal butchers, or you can do what we did: choose a meal deal and have it cooked there and then, exactly how you like it, and eat it fresh. You’re given the choice of a potato side, veg or salad and then the all important sauce and voila a perfect dinner.
Supermarket like shelves on the right of the store stock drinks and snacks for you to choose from to compliment dinner or take away for future bingeing. The milkshakes are also worth a try, Mo had a vanilla one and it was pure indulgence! We ended up ordering two!
If you do fancy trying some of the finest meats around, make sure you get there pre 9pm as the restaurant shuts at 10, you don’t want to arrive and have missed it!

text: A new study says the world’s major river systems contain more than enough water to meet global food production needs in the 21st century. Following a five-year study of 10 river basins — including the Nile, Ganges, Andes, Yellow, and Niger — scientists with the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) found that the greatest water challenge facing the planet is not scarcity but the inefficient and inequitable distribution of water. “Huge volumes of rainwater are lost or never used,” said Alain Vidal, director of CGIAR’s Challenge Program on Water and Food. In regions of sub-Saharan Africa, he said, even “modest” improvements in rainwater harvesting could yield two to three times more food production. Elsewhere, regions in Asia and Latin America exist where food production could be increased by at least 10 percent, according to the report, which is published in the journal Water International. According to a recent UN report, global food output will have to increase 70 percent by 2050 to feed a growing world population.

Luso and Luka Avchaleli, both entrepreneurs in Samshvilde village, have recently received grants to invest in their respective businesses. Luso has used the funding to create Orbis Bude, a tourist information and services hub as well as a youth community center. Luka, on the other hand, invested in irrigation equipment for his farm-equipment business.
While securing financing for their projects was a challenge, both entrepreneurs were able to overcome it with hard work and determination. Luso had to navigate the difficulties of starting a business and managing the accounting while Luka had to contribute a minimum of 30 percent of the total project cost as per the economic grants’ requirements. Despite these obstacles, they were able to obtain funding and put in the physical labor needed to build everything at Orbis Bude.
The success of these grants is evident from the high demand for agri-business ventures in areas where farmers lack access to modern agricultural machinery. Since its inception, 73 entrepreneurs across various business areas have been funded. The economic growth of the region is also benefiting from these grants, providing opportunities for entrepreneurs to invest in their businesses and contribute to the region’s economy.
Overall, Luso’s creation of Orbis Bude and Luka’s investment in irrigation equipment are prime examples of how economic grants can provide much-needed support for entrepreneurs looking to grow their businesses and contribute positively to their communities.

* * *Early U.S. political party that advocated a strong central government.Federalist was first used in 1787 to describe supporters of the Constitution of the United States, with its emphasis on a federal union; the Federalist papers was a series of 85 papers (1787–88) published by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay to persuade New York voters to ratify the Constitution. By the 1790s other policies defined the party, including Hamilton's fiscal program, creation of a central bank, a tariff system, favourable treatment for U.S. shipping, friendship with Britain, and neutrality in foreign affairs. The party elected John Adams as president in 1796 but was unable to organize effectively after 1801. It lost favour for its opposition to the Embargo Act and the War of 1812; an internal split by the New England faction (see Hartford Convention) further weakened the party. By the 1820s most of its original principles had been adopted by the opposition Democratic Party, and the Federalist Party disappeared. Notable Federalists included John Marshall, Rufus King, Timothy Pickering, and Charles Pinckney.
* * *▪ historical political party, United Statesearly U.S. national political party, which advocated a strong central government and held power from 1789 to 1801. The term federalist was first used in 1787 to describe the supporters of the newly written Constitution, who emphasized the federal character of the proposed Union. Parties were generally deplored as inimical to republican government, and President George Washington was able to exercise nonpartisan leadership during the first few years of the new government (begun in 1789). Strong division, however, developed over the fiscal program of the secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton, whom Washington supported. Differences were intensified by ideological attitudes toward the French Revolution, and by 1795 administration supporters had hardened into a regular party, which succeeded in electing John Adams to the presidency in 1796.Over the decade of the 1790s, the Federalists stood for the following economic policies: funding of the old Revolutionary War debt and the assumption of state debts, passage of excise laws, creation of a central bank, maintenance of a tariff system, and favourable treatment of American shipping. In foreign affairs they observed neutrality in the war that broke out between France and Great Britain in 1793; approved the Jay Treaty of 1794, which terminated the difficulties with Britain; and sponsored strong defense and internal-security legislation in the crisis of 1798–99 (see Alien and Sedition Acts), when French demands almost forced open war. These policies were strongly resisted, especially in the South; the opposition, organized by James Madison and Thomas Jefferson beginning in 1791, became the Republican Party, also known as the Jeffersonian Republicans and Democratic-Republican Party. Eventually this organization became the modern Democratic Party. The name Republican was taken over in the 1850s by a new party that espoused Federalist economic ideas and that survives to the present day under that name.The Federalists never held power again after 1801. Their failure is attributable to the Republicans' political skill and to the Federalists' own incapacity or unwillingness to organize politically, their internal divisions (especially between supporters of Adams and Hamilton), and their aversion to compromising principles for the sake of winning elections. Furthermore, New England Federalists adopted a divisive policy of sectionalism, moving dangerously near secession in 1808 and strenuously opposing the War of 1812 (see Hartford Convention). By 1817 the party was practically dead, though the opposing Republicans had adopted the Federalists' principles of nationality and had accepted many of their economic ideas.The accomplishments of the Federalists were great: the party organized the enduring administrative machinery of national government; fixed the practice of a liberal interpretation of the Constitution; established traditions of federal fiscal integrity and credit worthiness; and initiated the important doctrine of neutrality in foreign affairs, allowing the infant nation to develop in peace for more than a century.

|Revis Report, Week 2: Corner could face unique challenge in Minnesota’s Cordarrelle Patterson||09.11.14 at 11:35 pm ET|
Each week, we’ll present The Revis Report, a look at what’s on tap for the Patriots cornerback. This week, New England travels to Minnesota for a date with the Vikings.
Overview: This will mark Darrelle Revis‘ second regular-season game with the Patriots, and his first against the Vikings since he was with the Jets on Oct. 11, 2010. New England is coming off a surprising 33-20 loss to the Dolphins in the regular-season opener.
“We’re ready to go,” Revis told reporters after practice on Thursday. “We had a great practice today [and] we’ve just got to focus on [Friday] and tie all three practices together, and we’ll be ready to go.”
Last week: According to NFL gamebooks, Revis played 62 of a possible 74 snaps against the Dolphins (84 percent), and after looking at the All-22 film, we had him lined up on the left side for 61 of the possible 62 snaps. (This would certainly jibe with what we saw from him over the course of the preseason, where he was on the left side for 33 of his 36 preseason snaps.) In all, he was targeted five times by Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and yielded two catches for a total of 36 yards to Miami’s Mike Wallace, and also had two pass breakups.
While Revis stuck to one side of the field for the bulk of the afternoon, most of his action came in head-to-head matchups with Wallace. The most eventful play came in the first half when Wallace dropped an impressive double-move on Revis, allowing him to get some separation on the cornerback and get some clearance on the way to the end zone. However, the ball was just slightly off the mark, and Wallace was unable to come down with the ball inbounds. Revis ended the game with one tackle and a fumble recovery.
(For what it’s worth, Wallace’s move caused us to think about the most notable quote of the previous week from Revis on the receiver, saying that his speed can sometimes be deceptive. “Film can play tricks on your eyes sometimes when you watch it,” Revis said when asked about preparing for Wallace. “Until you get out there … film speed and game speed are totally two different things. I played against him in the past — a lot of guys on this team have — and I know how fast he is. He’s probably the fastest receiver in the league.”)
Ultimately, Wallace ended the game with seven catches (on 11 targets) for 81 yards and a touchdown, an uptick from the numbers he had averaged against Revis-led defenses in the past (four catches for 41 yards per contest).

|Darrelle Revis: ‘Very frustrating’ to miss end of game with cramps||09.07.14 at 8:06 pm ET|
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — It may not have changed the outcome but Darrelle Revis said he was frustrated to be kept on the sideline by a minor issue in the closing moments of Sunday’s 33-20 loss to the Dolphins.
“Very frustrating. I couldn’t be out there and help the team out in desperation mode at that time,” Revis said.
Revis was asked specifically if it was cramping from the heat and humidity that kept him out of the game at the end.
“Uh, yeah,” Revis said. “Minor. Minor. Minor things going on but yeah.”
Revis made his official debut with the Patriots and was targeted several times by Ryan Tannehill, including on the Mike Wallace touchdown reception over the middle that tied the game, 20-20, in the third quarter.
“I actually knocked the pass down and thought it popped up like the post he ran earlier in the first half. I don’t know, I have to see the film,” Revis said of the Wallace TD grab. “My teammates were telling me it hit his knee and popped back into his hands. You don’t want those happen – sometimes they happen ‘ but the only thing you can do is, I don’t know. Sometimes the plays happen and you have to tip your hat off to Mike for keeping focus and coming up with it some weird way.”
Wallace, who finished with seven catches and a TD on 11 targets, nearly had another touchdown on Revis on an out-and-up move in the second quarter but Wallace’s right foot came down out of bounds.
“It’s not a good day for us,” Revis said. “We didn’t play too well and that’s the taste we have in our mouth today. It doesn’t matter about my first day, it would have been way better if we would have come out with a victory. We’re worried about the loss.”
|Revis Report, Week 1: Will it be Mike Wallace or Charles Clay?||09.04.14 at 11:13 pm ET|
Each week, we’ll present The Revis Report, a look at what’s on tap for the Patriots cornerback over the coming week. This week, it’s the first regular-season game for the Patriots, as they travel to Miami for a date with the Dolphins.
Overview: This is Darrelle Revis‘ first game with the Patriots, and so there’s not much to go on in terms of history within New England’s system. Over the course of the preseason, the cornerback played two games, and took 36 snaps overall. By our highly unscientific count, he was on the right side for 33 of those snaps, and on the left for three. He was thrown at three times, and there was one completion, a pass from Cam Newton to Kelvin Benjamin.
“I’m very excited. It’s the first week — it’s good to get things going now,” Revis said Thursday when asked if he was excited to get the regular season started. “I think we’re all excited. We’ve been waiting for this for awhile, and now, it’s here.”
Possible man matchups: Revis will likely be utilized against one of two people — either wide receiver Mike Wallace or tight end Charles Clay. Revis said Thursday he’s matched up against Wallace on several occasions times in the past — it appears the last time the two went head-to-head was Week 2 of the 2012 season. According to Pro Football Focus, Revis played in 43 of a possible 85 defensive snaps before going down with a knee injury that ultimately left him on the shelf for the rest of the season.
Then, there’s Clay. Why would Bill Belichick have Revis work against a tight end? A few reasons. First, Belichick has traditionally been all about trying to stop the opposing team’s No. 1 offensive option, and he has a clear level of respect for Clay, so much so that he assigned lead corner Aqib Talib (with some help) to Clay in last year’s contest against the Dolphins in Miami. Clay had one catch for six yards in the loss to the Dolphins.
Clay presents a myriad of challenges for a defender who might be assigned to him in single coverage, including the fact that he could line up at several different positions.
“You have to find him,” Belichick said of Clay earlier this week. “He’s all over. Sometimes he’s in the normal tight end location but you certainly can’t count on that — flex, could be in the backfield, could be detached as a receiver.”
FOXBORO — While it’s unclear how the Patriots will utilize Darrelle Revis in the regular season-opener Sunday against the Dolphins in Miami, it sounds like he’s intrigued about the challenge of facing wide receiver Mike Wallace.
Revis had nothing but positive things to say about Wallace on Thursday, saying he was “probably the fastest receiver in the league.”
“He’s very fast and he’s a very explosive receiver,” Revis said of Wallace, who was equally as effusive in his praise of Revis earlier in the week.
According to Revis — who faced him several times when he was in New York — the challenge of going up against Wallace means more than just watching him on film.
“Film can play tricks on your eyes sometimes when you watch it,” Revis said when pressed on Wallace’s skill set. “Until you get out there … film speed and game speed are totally two different things. I played against him in the past — a lot of guys on this team have — and I know how fast he is. He’s probably the fastest receiver in the league. We all know that and we are all aware of it as well.”
Then, there’s also the issue that comes with facing a team that is installing a new offensive system. With new offensive coordinator Bill Lazor — who made his bones working with Chip Kelly’s speedy offense in Philly last season — it’s likely that the Dolphins will keep their foot on the gas pedal.
When mixed with the swelling South Florida conditions, it presents a unique set of challenges for the New England defense.
“Miami always plays fast. They played fast in the past,” Revis said. “The weather plays a part as well. That hot weather. We’re aware. We’re aware of all the situations. I think that’s why we have a week to prepare to go through every scenario we can — player and coachwise — and just game plan the best we can.”
Ultimately, Revis — who was signed as a free agent in the spring — is excited for his first regular season action with the Patriots.
“I’m very excited,” he said. “It’s the first week — it’s good to get things going now. I think we’re all excited. We’ve been waiting for this for awhile, and now, it’s here.”

|Mike Wallace excited for opportunity to go head-to-head with Darrelle Revis||09.03.14 at 12:54 pm ET|
FOXBORO — While there’s some question as to how Darrelle Revis will be deployed in the season opener against the Dolphins — whether he’ll be manning up against a single receiver or working a particular side — one Miami receiver is excited about the prospect of going head-to-head with the Patriots cornerback.
“If he does follow me, it will be an exciting matchup,” Wallace told reporters. “I’ll have fun. Go after it all day long.
“He’s a good player. He’s a really smart, crafty guy,” Wallace said of Revis. “He’s going to be in the right spots. You have to move him off his spots because he’s a guy that’s not going to be fooled with all the movement, jerking around at the line. You’ve got to get going, get to your spots and be fast out of your break.”
Wallace doesn’t sound like the type of player who is going to get drawn into a potential war of words with Revis.
“Me personally, I don’t really have a mental battle with anybody,” he said. “I’m just out there trying to play football. I don’t get into too much back and forth, this or that. For me, mentally, it’s about myself and being in the spots I need to be in, and doing what I’m coached to do. I’m not really worried about one guy.”
Patriots coach Bill Belichick extolled the virtues of Revis on Wednesday. Speaking with Miami reporters on a conference call, he called Revis “very professional” and praised his work ethic.
“Darrelle has done a good job since he’s been here,” Belichick said. “Very professional, smart player, works hard, durable, dependable. He’s really done everything we’ve asked him to do and really tried to do it well. Very professional. I think if any of our players want to see why he’s had such a successful career, all they have to do is watch him prepare off the field and work. He really does a good job there.”
In last year’s game against Miami, the Patriots utilized Aqib Talib on tight end Charles Clay. While Belichick wouldn’t get into specifics on a potential Revis-Clay or Revis-Wallace matchup, he did expand on the pros and cons of using a defensive back on a single receiver.
“The pros and cons of it: the pros are that you have a matchup or maybe more than one matchup that you want,” he said. “The drawbacks are that it forces other people to adjust and you have guys playing multiple positions, and especially if you don’t know where the receivers are going to be, somebody has to make some adjustments there.
“It’s easy for a guy to follow the guy he’s following, but then depending on what personnel groups and formations they use and what defenses you’re in, what type of calls you’re running, then there could be some communication and adjustments there. You just have to weigh those factors out and figure out what you’re comfortable with as a team and how you like the matchups or don’t like [the matchups], how you want to change them and so forth.”
|5 things you have to know about Dolphins||09.01.14 at 9:35 pm ET|
Here are five things you have to know about the Dolphins, who are looking to break the Patriots’ 10-game winning streak when it comes to regular-season openers Sunday in South Florida.
1. They are going to look to push the pace offensively.
Miami imported former Eagles quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor to serve as its new OC, and in an attempt to give the offense a jolt, he’s expected to bring a little Chip Kelly-style flair to the proceedings. That means faster football, and given the fact that the Patriots will be entering into what’s expected to be sweltering South Florida heat, the Dolphins will try and use a quicker tempo to their advantage. For what it’s worth, Miami has been a little quicker than the average NFL team over the last two years under Joe Philbin. Measured using situation-neutral offensive pace — a formula from Football Outsiders that eliminates things like two-minute drills and late-game clock-killing situations to get a truer idea of the offense’s intentions when it comes to offensive pace — the 2012 Dolphins were ninth overall at one play every 29.23 seconds, and last year, on average, they ran one play every 30.08 seconds, 14th quickest in the NFL. Of course, it’s debatable how effective the uptempo style will be. But it’s important to remember that Lazor played a sizable role in the growth and development of Nick Foles in Philly’s fast scheme last year, as Foles went from backup quarterback to SI cover boy in the span of a few months and the Eagles went from worst (4-12 and last in the NFC East) to first (10-6 and a division title) under Kelly. It’s clear Miami is hoping that Ryan Tannehill and the rest of the Dolphins offense can respond the same way in 2014.
2. They are all-in at wide receiver.
The Dolphins have really gone above and beyond when it comes to giving Ryan Tannehill enough options. With the cap hit for Mike Wallace ballooning to $17.25 million this year, the Dolphins are spending a whopping $29.6 million on their 2014 wide receivers’by far the most in the league, according to a June study by CBS Sports. Wallace, Brian Hartline, Rishard Matthews and Brandon Gibson are joined by rookie Jarvis Landry to form a relatively deep group of wide receivers, one that will serve as a nice challenge for a revamped New England secondary at the start of the season. (Some believe Lazor will try and use Wallace in much the same manner the Eagles did with DeSean Jackson, which is an intriguing concept.)
3. The interior of their offensive line is vulnerable.
The Dolphins have struggled with their offensive line dating back to last year — from a pure football perspective, the Incognito-Martin imbroglio simply shone a light on things. Miami allowed a league-high 58 sacks of Tannehill last season, 10 more than the second-place finish (Baltimore’s Joe Flacco was sacked 48 times) and tied for 10th most all-time in a single season. (For some perspective, Houston’s David Carr was sacked an astounding 76 times in 2002, the all-time mark.) Here’s a highlight reel of all 58 sacks, a sequence that lasts almost 10 minutes.
In all, Tannehill has been sacked 93 times in his first two years in the league. (We haven’t even mentioned the fact that the Miami running game was 26th in the league last season — a sizable portion of the blame for those numbers can also be attributed to the offensive line.) And so it was no surprise the Dolphins made offensive line a priority this offseason. They stabilized their left tackle spot with the addition of Branden Albert, while they used their first round pick on Ja’Wuan James, who appears to be the Week 1 right tackle for Miami. But things are still very rough along the interior, as center Mike Pouncey continues to work his way back from offseason hip surgery (Samson Satele will get the start in his place), while guard play has been questionable at best over the course of the summer. Bottom line? If you want to attack this offense, your best bet appears to be up the gut.
4. Their pass rush will test the New England offensive line early.
Left defensive end Cameron Wake (8.5 sacks last year) and right defensive end Olivier Vernon (11.5 sacks last year) combine to form a very nice set of bookends, and are likely the top priority when it comes to pass protection for the Patriots. (Per Football Outsiders, Wake notched at least 20 hurries and 20 quarterback knockdowns for the fourth year in a row.) While the Dolphins are very good off the edge, it would ostensibly be a strength-on-strength matchup against right tackle Sebastian Vollmer and left tackle Nate Solder. Miami could have an edge if it finds a way to get pressure up the middle, as the interior of New England’s offensive line has some personnel questions, particularly if Marcus Cannon is utilized more as a backup swing tackle than one of the two available guard spots. But many of the questions people have had about the overall fitness of the Patriots offensive line will be answered against a pretty good front seven in the opener.
5. They are ready for Rob Gronkowski … if the big tight end does play.
The Dolphins hardly sounded shocked at the proclamation from Gronkowski that he was good to go for Week 1. Miami defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle was asked about Gronkowski’s statement that he was going to play, and he responded with a simple, ‘We assumed that he might.’ In Gronkowski’s career, the Patriots are 6-0 against Miami when he’s in the lineup, but for what it’s worth, the Dolphins have actually done a pretty fair job at containing Gronkowski over the years: In six career games against Miami, he’s averaged four catches, 56 yards and 0.5 touchdowns per game, some of his lowest per game averages against a regular opponent. (In his last two games against Miami, Gronkowski had only only four catches.) It remains to be seen if Gronkowski actually plays, and if he does, how many snaps he’ll take. (His overall football fitness remains in question, and Bill Belichick has said on numerous occasions that you just can run around a track a few times and be ready to play.) But history tells us that the Dolphins have found a way to not stop him completely, but at least slow him down to a point where he not the runaway offensive force he’s been against most teams when he’s been healthy. “He’s an excellent player,” Philbin said Monday when asked about Gronkowski. “He’s been a very, very productive player throughout his career. We’ll have a good plan in place, but he’s certainly an important part of their offense, and a productive part of it. We’ll be ready for him, for sure.”
|Around the AFC East: Dolphins, Bills pull off narrow victories||09.15.13 at 5:12 pm ET|
With the Patriots having Sunday off, it gave us a chance to check out what’s going on in the rest of the AFC East. Here’s a quick look at what happened in the rest of the division over the weekend:
Dolphins (2-0): Miami won a highly entertaining contest Sunday against the Colts and Andrew Luck, coming away with a 24-20 victory to stay unbeaten on the year. Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill went 23-for-34 for 319 yards and one touchdown to give Indy its first home loss in 12 months. Miami, which is 2-0 for just the second time since 2004, saw Mike Wallace (nine catches, 115 yards) and Charles Clay (five catches, 109 yards) go over 100 yards receiving. The Dolphins needed the firepower, as Luck had the Colts in position to pull off another comeback win — he had the ball at the Miami 23-yard line with 1:45 left, but tossed three incompletes and was sacked on fourth down to finish things.
Next up: Sunday, Sept. 22 vs. Falcons
Jets (1-1): Like the Patriots, New York also had the weekend off, but managed to make its share of headlines with the decision to place quarterback Mark Sanchez on injured reserve with a designation to return. While coach Rex Ryan said he believed Sanchez could contribute later in the season, the move means that Sanchez will be on the shelf for the next eight weeks. (The earliest Sanchez could be back is Nov. 17 at Buffalo, following the Jets’ bye week.) That means that for the foreseeable future, the quarterback job belongs to rookie Geno Smith, who was a bit of a mixed bag in Thursday’s loss to the Patriots. The West Virginia product was 15-for-35 for 214 yards, and was sacked four times and intercepted three times.
Next up: Sunday, Sept. 22 vs. Bills
Bills (1-1): Buffalo got its first win of the season on Sunday with a dramatic 24-23 victory over the Panthers, thanks in large part to rookie quarterback EJ Manuel, who connected with wide receiver Stevie Johnson on a 2-yard touchdown pass with two seconds left to lift the Bills. Manuel engineered a game-winning drive late in the fourth, a nine-play, 80-yard series where he went 6-for-8 for 51 yards. (He ended the game 27-for-39 for 296 yards, with a touchdown and an interception.) Manuel got some help down the stretch when Carolina (and former Boston College) linebacker Luke Kuechly was penalized for pass interference on a third down play with less than a minute to go to help keep Buffalo alive.

In Part 1 I described what a detox/cleanse is and what parts of the body are involved.
What are some signs or symptoms that you require a detoxification?
- Lack of energy
- Weight gain
- Irritability, depression
- Sluggish digestion
- Gas, bloating
- Constipation or irregular bowel movements
- Clogged sinuses
- Brain fog, “spaciness”, lack of concentration
- Aching muscles or joints
- Dark circles under eyes, puffiness
There is a relationship between the seasons and diet. Spring and autumn are key times for detoxification. Now that it is springtime we may want to incorporate more citrus and fresh greens and juices. More fresh fruits and vegetables is appropriate when going into summer and for our diet in the winter we may use more legumes, vegetables, whole grains like brown rice and eat soups.
Safe Steps for Detoxification
- Set Realistic Expectations
- You may not lose weight but you will have clarity and lightness
- Select a Weekend
- You can be in the comfort of your own home if you need to rest
- Wean caffeine to avoid a headache
- If you are a caffeine drinker weaning is the best way to avoid a headache before your detox program.
- Remove all processed/packaged foods and refined sugars
- These are dense foods and cause congestion
- Wheat, rye, spelt, barley and kamut are high gluten grains that can be difficult to digest and cause inflammation

|A fox I saw in 2010.|
But the foxes. I stayed very still when I saw them. I hoped they’d let me watch, but I couldn’t take a chance on them spotting me and running away because I wanted this moment. The mother was washing one cub's tail while the others raced skittishly. Before I came to London, I never saw foxes by daylight. A fox in Bristol or Manchester was a moment that stood still some time after 3am. I’d round a corner and share mutually shocked eye contact until it bounded off. Seeing a fox was like seeing an big full moon, or smelling a jumper that belongs to someone you love. I’d climb into bed thinking “ahh, thank you universe for giving me a fox tonight!” But the foxes in London are audacious and shabby and not really loved. They sunbathe on garden sheds and pick fights and stalk down the streets like commuters. Because they are Londoners they have learnt to be unbothered by the close-quartered living conditions. They do not have time for privacy, and are not embarrassed about gathering chicken bones or washing their cubs out in the open.
Hungry on the street, I wanted a fox mum to clean my tail for me. I wanted to be close to other people without having go to a restaurant or a bar or spend more money. I wanted to lie quietly in a room with a door open, and hear people pottering in other parts of the house. I wanted somebody to make me dinner, and for me do the same for them tomorrow. There are so many things I want, and I don’t think I will ever grow out of it. Sometimes I am plagued by longing, but sometimes it wraps me up. It wraps me up when I’m sprawling on the mad flower patterned sofas at my parents house, or at the cinema with my arm hairs on end, clutching at something.
I long for the feeling of lying on my parents’ sofa here in London. I long to own more than one shelf in my fridge. I long for summer holidays. I don’t begrudge the longing, because I am used to being guided by it. It’s what gets me up in the mornings, working for a bigger fridge, a longer holiday. I’ve accepted the everyday presence of longing, which sort of makes it feel less deep. Maybe you're reading this and thinking 'oh, she is having a bad time' but my feelings can be flippant. I go deep into my longing, and the next moment I'm thinking about something else. I reserve my right to write something and feel differently later. Longing always summons another Friday.
I think I like longing when it’s doesn’t make me obsess over money. But maybe I sort of like obsessing over money? I have carefully calculated monthly budgets in spreadsheets, I am always keen to learn how people can afford to live. I don’t know where I learned to love this obsession, or who it is serving. Longing, I think as I watch the foxes, is just how I pass my time. What would it feel like not to? In twelve hours time, I will be walking by the canal, following the Canal and River Trust’s signposted suggestions (“Be like a Tortoise, Not A Hare!”) and I will remember again.
I left the foxes to their washing and familial tumbling. At home, I stood at the counter shovelled hummus and crackers into my mouth, a really good prawn and mayonnaise sandwich from leftovers. I watched Summertime in bed, David Lean’s tale of longing in Italy. For much of the film Katharine Hepburn leans on Venetian bridges, marvelling at gondolas, water fire engines and old stone, trying to settle into her aloneness. She is forever crying out in wonder, and then moments later the ‘o’ of her lips has slumped. Her shoulders rolled forward, saying “what now?”.
There’s no one to turn to and say “would you look at that!” but if there was, she’d have to move through the crowds in a different way. Her holiday isn’t much different from being back at home, if you think about the gaps we really live in. One moment you’re watching a fox and wishing you had your people around, the next you’re spreading mayonnaise across bread, just being. Or rather, you're always being. You don’t remember that listlessness once you’re back at home from your holiday. Everyone had left aperitivo on the balcony for dinner, and Katharine Hepburn was pouring Bourbon she didn’t really want, back to thinking “what now?”. I was asleep within five minutes.

How to Annotate an Article. Step 1. Circle unknown words. As you read, circle each word you come across that is unfamiliar. You may need to come back and reread the sentences before and after the word to get at the meaning of the word. Step 2. Mark definitions. Underline, highlight or circle sentences that provide you. Example of Annotated Text As an "active reader," you already know that when you read textbook assignments, you should have questions in your mind. As you read, you should be looking for the answers to these questions. You should also have a pencil in hand so that you can "annotate" your text. As the word suggests, you "take notes" in your textbook. Unlike "highlighting," which is a passive activity, the process of annotating text helps you to stay focused and involved with your textbook.
Annotating a text, or marking the pages with notes, is an excellent, if not essential, way to make the most out of the reading you do for college courses. Annotations make it easy to find important information quickly when you look back and review a text. They help you familiarize yourself with both the content and organization. Since Humanities articles are written similar to an essay, you can refer to the instructional video on Annotating Essays and Books for tips on how to annotate while you read a Humanities-style journal article. The introduction does several things: it describes the topic, identifies the problem to be solved, provides a review of the relevant literature, defines the theoretical approach, and states the hypothesis. Be aware that some essays have separate discussion and conclusion sections, with the discussion section interpreting the results and drawing conclusions, and the conclusion section identifying limitations and listing ideas for future areas of study. The following text was sampled in this video: Rufai, Ahmed Umar, Ab Rahim Bin Bakar, and Abdullah Bin Mat Rashid.
How to Annotate an Article. Annotating a text means that you take notes in the margins and make other markings for In order to incorporate Web 2.0 functionality effectively, digital libraries must fundamentally recast users not just as content consumers, but as content creators. This article analyzes the integration of social annotations uncontrolled user-generated content into digital collection items. The literature review briefly summarizes the value of annotations and finds that there is conceptual room to include user-generated content in digital libraries, that they have been imagined as forums for social interaction since their inception, and that encouraging a collaborative approach to knowledge discovery and creation might make digital libraries serve as boundary objects that increase participation and engagement. The results of an ongoing case study of a Web 2.0 question and answer site that has made a similar transition from factual to social content are analyzed, and eight decision points for digital libraries to consider when integrating social annotations with digital collection items are proposed. At the beginning of a term, many college students are faced with the choice of whether to buy a new or used textbook. While used textbooks are obviously less costly, they often carry another benefit new textbooks don't: highlights, underscores and other annotations by their previous owners. Even though the author of, and rationale for, the annotations may be unknown, the fact that somebody found particular sections of the book important enough to emphasize tends to make the eye linger. Ideally, annotations can make learning and knowledge discovery feel less like a solitary pursuit and more like a collaborative effort.
As an example, let’s say I’m helping my students think through the task of purposefully annotating a Kelly Gallagher-esque article of the week. As part of any science class, you will be required to read about scientific topics, either as journal articles, news sources, and even charts and graphs. The ACT science test will assess your ability to read complex scientific texts, and hopefully by the time you get there, you will be pro at it. One strategy for reading articles or textbooks is to ANNOTATE. It means to add notes (an-NOTE-tate) to text that you are reading, to offer explanation, comments or opinions to the author's words. Annotation takes practice, and the better you are at it, the better you will be at reading complicated articles.

That’s because we didn’t want to bolt an average comments section onto the bottom of each article and call it a day. In our experience, that approach doesn’t often lead to valuable discussion. Plus, we have plenty of other great ways to communicate with you—from our @qz Twitter account to our hi@inbox. With annotations, you can now add to Quartz stories on the level of individual paragraphs. Today we’re excited to unveil our own spin on comments. Just click on the quote bubble off to the right to get started. Think of it like the margins of a book or memo, where the best and most insightful ideas are often found. In the 17th and 18th centuries, it was traditional for newspapers to include space for readers to jot down thoughts, gossip, and observations before passing along their copy to others. Annotations are an experiment, and we consider this a beta release of the feature. Some papers kept their margins wide for such notes; others, like the very first American newspaper, Publick Occurrences, included an entire blank page. The idea is to encourage thoughtful commentary and substantive contributions. Because you are annotating a specific paragraph, the discussion ought to be much more directed than usual.
Navigate to the webpage on which your article is posted. Once your software is ready, you can start your real research. Browse the web until you locate an article that you can use. Or, to save time, you might locate numerous articles that you can use and go through them one by one. All apps include a standard selection tool on the Draw tab of the Ribbon that can select both digital ink drawings and any other kinds objects. Power Point and Excel also have an ink selection tool, Lasso Select, specifically for selecting objects drawn with ink. It's most useful when you have a mixture of standard and ink objects and you only want to select an ink object. Applies only to Power Point and Excel: To select part of a drawing or words written in ink, use the Lasso Select tool. (This tool can't select non-ink objects—that is, shapes, pictures, etc.) In both Excel and Power Point, with a digital pen, you can select an area without even tapping the selection tool on the ribbon.

An annotation is a note, comment, or concise statement of the key ideas in a text or a portion of a text and is commonly used in reading instruction and in research. In corpus linguistics, an annotation is a coded note or comment that identifies specific linguistic features of a word or sentence.

Ensembl transcripts displayed on our website are products of the Ensembl automatic gene annotation system (a collection of gene annotation pipelines), termed the Ensembl annotation process. All Ensembl transcripts are based on experimental evidence and thus the automated pipeline relies on the m RNAs and protein sequences deposited into public databases from the scientific community.
As an example, let's say I'm helping my students think through the task of purposefully annotating a Kelly Gallagher-esque article of the week. In that case, the purpose I set for my students' reading is, as The Gallagher put it in a recent post's comments section, to simply become smarter about the world, and the post-reading. Annotation is an important tool to use while reading for many reasons that are multifaceted. When you read without annotating, you do not always retain the information, absorbing words passively instead of analyzing the text. Reading anything for academic purposes (such as a book, newspaper article, or essay) is enhanced by taking notes while you read. The benefits of learning about annotating text are apparent: Knowing what and how to annotate will be somewhat subjective for each person, as different types of people make different types of notes. Always remember to keep a dictionary next to you while you read so you can look up new words or phrases. However, here are some helpful tips of what to look for when annotating. Sometimes you can guess the meaning of a word by the context of the sentence or excerpt, but not always. Make sure to look up all new vocabulary terms in the dictionary. Keeping track of new key characters will help in the long run when you need to review for a test. Write the meaning of the word in the margin and an explanation if applicable. It helps to circle the first instance of each character’s introduction, plus any example of a passage in which the character asserts his/her personality. Circling the characters’ names in each important scene will reinforce your ability to cite references to use in subsequent essays, as well. Write your own thoughts and opinions in the margins.

Library __ Help in writing annotations. An annotation is more than a brief summary of a book, article, or other publication. Its purpose is to describe the work in such a way that the reader can decide whether or not to read the work itself. A bibliography, of course, is a list of writings and is a standard appendage to a scholarly. I’ve been playing around a bit with auto-annotating news articles to foster better literacy reflexes in students. Here’s the latest work in progress: I’ve made an annotation bot that goes out and finds articles mentioning industry front groups and asks students to do research to confirm or deny the connection. I compiled a list of over 150 known front groups — groups that present as social activism groups, but are thought to be industry-funded astroturf. Since most people don’t understand bots, I want to be really clear about what I’m about to show you. It runs as a “batch” process overnight, goes and tries to find new articles mentioning front groups, and has new pages annotated for the general public when you wake up. Or maybe as a student we were told to check out one of the results of contextbot and further annotate it. (It’s a surprisingly quick process, actually, so if you wanted to run it during the day or during a coffee break you could). This goes out and annotates pages based on the fact they mention some potentially dubious organizations. Here’s what we find: It’s an op-ed from a researcher who talks about their lab’s cute little test piglet “Slinky” and how much they adored him. But it does so in a way that anyone can look at the annotations. Some test crawls from last night showed this story here (among about a couple hundred other stories): Ignore the “Untitled Document” bit right now — that’s a bug being worked out. It’s pretty folksy stuff: Let me tell you about Slinky. Slinky was sweet and full of personality, an adorable and playful piglet who grew to be a gentle and smiley giant. He was purchased when he was 2 months old to help us develop surgical solutions to congenital heart defects in children. And the point of the article (which I actually don’t disagree with) is that animal testing is necessary to save human lives. The subpoint, which is more debatable, is that scientists in these industries already do their best to minimize the suffering of animals where possible, and more regulation isn’t necessary. That point I don’t actually have an opinion on — so it’s great to see a view from inside the process from a dedicated scientist.

Frances Akello was one of the first women representatives in parliament shortly before Uganda got its independence from 1960-62.
A teacher by profession Akello was only 24 when she stepped into the Legislative Council commonly known as Legico. She served until independence and went back into teaching after.
I caught up with her in Soroti where she works for the Teso cultural institution after retirement.
Akello told me she was disappointed at the level of debate in the current parliament.
“Our debates were nationalist in nature. We wanted independence and good services for all Ugandans, it didn’t matter where you were from,” she said. “Comparing that time with today the house has found itself debating personalities and few times do they debate issues with a national interest.”
Akello said her disappointment has been “since independence we haven’t identified ourselves as Ugandans and this is reflected in parliament how people only discuss what benefits ‘their people’.”
“It’s all about what are you, whether you are from the west or north or central. I am disheartened.”
She said that lack of national identity was also seen in service delivery.
“We are becoming more selfish, unfocused on the nation, shortsighted and more corrupt every day.”
However Akello still believes there’s still room for the country to put itself back on the road and achieve what the pre-independence leaders fought for.
Akello also said she was happy with the increase in women representation in parliament from about 5 percent in her time to now about 31 percent.
