Throughout Under Armour's history, Plank has relished fighting the doubters. It's in his DNA: when describing his playing style at Maryland, the 5-ft. 11-in., 210-lb. (1.8 m, 95 kg) walk-on says, "I put my head down and hit you. That was my gig." He still has a locker-room mouth--"We give a s___ about what we do every day"--and rarely minces words. "What makes Under Armour special is the fact that we don't make a bunch of crap for the mass market," he says...
Wreckage from this collision won't be tidied up anytime soon. Walther has placed her trust in the modern science of DNA--Williams was among the men who went to Eldorado to have his mouth swabbed for a sample. Mapping the intricately interwoven gene pool of the FLDS won't solve her most immediate dilemma, though. Until investigators determine what did take place on the ranch, the judge will be left in the same troubled place where she began: with a lot of mothers who love their babies, and children who miss their homes, all caught between a world they...
Texas social workers will begin conducting DNA tests today to identify the 416 children taken into custody from the fundamentalist Mormon ranch near Eldorado since April 3. A district court judge granted the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TDFPS) permission to test the children last Friday, as the agency's custody workers continued to struggle with the serious, complicated task of determining which children belong to whom - a task further clouded by the fact that children and mothers gave evasive, shifting answers during interviews...
Lee’s work in human genetics identifies copy number variation, a phenomenon that occurs when DNA segments are missing or duplicated. His findings proved that contrary to the prevailing notion that human genomes differ by less than 0.1 percent, there is actually significant variation, with hundreds of DNA sequences that are different...
...billion software engineers. The Indian Institute of Technology brand owes much to Asok, the super-geek of the popular comic strip Dilbert, who claims to be "mentally superior to most people on earth," is trained to sleep only on national holidays, and can reincarnate from his own DNA. But studies point out that while India's pool of 14 million university graduates grows by a further 2.5 million every year, only one in four engineering graduates - and one in 10 graduates of other disciplines - is considered "employable" by multinationals. The quality of degrees varies widely between institutes, and while many...
