kasen williams

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

Skyline senior Kasen Williams hugs his mother Rhonda after announcing his decision to attend the UW. [1]

It doesn’t seem like that long ago I went out to watch Skyline’s 2009 scrimmage hoping to meet Kasen Williams and his parents for the first time. [2]

– All-state wide receiver Kasen Williams says he’s staying home to play for the University of Washington next season. [3]

That’s when wide receiver Kasen Williams (Sammamish, Wash./Skyline) will announce his decision between Washington, California, Florida, LSU and Notre Dame. [4]

Four-star wide receiver Kasen Williams (Sammamish, Wash./Skyline) narrowed his college list down to five — Washington, California, Florida, LSU and Notre Dame — not too long ago and will make his choice this Friday. [5]

Williams’ father Aaron played receiver for the Huskies 1979-82. [3]

Williams’ signing is a second coup this month for second-year Huskies coach Steve Sarkisian. [6]

Skyline star Kasen Williams will play football for the Washington Huskies. [1]

The expectation is for the 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver to pick Washington and follow in the footsteps of his father, Aaron, who played for the Huskies from 1979-82. [2]

After narrowing his finalists to five schools recently, Williams picked the Huskies over California, Notre Dame, Florida and Louisiana State. [1]

It should be cool because for the first time, we’re inviting all the youth league teams in the area to attend the barbecue and there will be some 300 kids along with the 120 players in our football program at Skyline. [5]

He chose Washington over Florida, Notre Dame, California and LSU. [3]

The Huskies first big pick-up was tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (Gig Harbor, Wash./Gig Harbor). [4]

Williams helped Skyline win its third consecutive state championship last fall while catching 74 passes for over 1,200 yards and 20 touchdowns. [3]

It was important for him to make the decision in front of his Skyline teammates, with all of the players in the junior football program looking on, so he picked out the date where the Spartans’ football family would be able to attend. [2]

albinism

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

Albinism (from Latin albus, “white”; see extended etymology, also called achromia, achromasia, or achromatosis) is a congenital disorder characterized by the complete or partial absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes due to absence or defect of an enzyme involved in the production of melanin. [1]

Generalized albinism occurs throughout the world in about one in 20,000 persons. [2]

Humans, animals, and even plants can have albinism, a condition that gives people a kind of pale appearance. [3]

People with albinism have little or no pigment in their eyes, skin, or hair. [4]

It’s a word that’s sometimes used to describe a condition called albinism (say: al-buh-nih-zum). [5]

Albinism consists of a group of inherited abnormalities of melanin synthesis and are typically characterized by a congenital reduction or absence of melanin pigment. [6]

The classification of congenital hypopigmentary diseases that result from a defect in the production of pigment (melanin) due to dysfunction of pigment cells (melanocytes) in the skin, the eyes, and/or the ears consists of the following: oculocutaneous albinism types 1, 2, 3, and 4; ocular albinism; Chediak-Higashi syndrome; Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome; and Griscelli syndrome. [7]

The melanocytes (pigment cells) are unable to produce melanin for any one of a variety of reasons that do not directly involve the tyrosinase enzyme. [1]

In humans with generalized, or total, albinism, the affected person has milk-white skin and hair; the iris of the eye appears pink, the pupil red. [2]

Their bodies aren’t able to make a normal amount of melanin, the chemical that is responsible for eye, skin, and hair color. [3]

… albinism is a “recessive trait”, so even if only one of the two copies of the OCA gene is functional, a person can make pigment, but will carry the albinism trait. [4]

It is characterized by a lack of melanin, the pigment that normally gives color to the skin, hair, and eyes. [2]

Melanin is a chemical in our bodies that colors our skin, eyes, and hair. [...] Sometimes, a mom and a dad might carry an “albinism gene” but not show any signs of albinism themselves. [5]

They have inherited altered genes that do not make the usual amounts of a pigment called melanin. [4]

richard ramirez

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

Over one hundred witnesses testified, and while a number of witnesses had a difficult time recalling certain facts four years after the crimes, others were quite certain of the identity of Richard Ramirez. [1]

This article is about the serial killer Richard Ram?rez. [2]

Richard Ramirez was born in El Paso, Texas, on February 28, 1960, to Julian and Mercedes Ramirez. [3]

The vehicle was recovered on August 28, complete with a clear set of fingerprints belonging to Richard Ramirez, a 25-year-old drifter from Texas whose L.A. rap sheet included numerous arrests for traffic and drug violations. [4]

I think Richard Ramirez is one of the best killers. [5]

The groom, serial killer and rapist Richard Ramirez, was on Death Row, awaiting execution. [6]

Prior to his capture, Ramirez was dubbed the “Night Stalker” by the news media as he terrorized California with a series of car and home abductions, rapes, and murders during the first half of 1985. [1]

The newspapers dubbed him the Night Stalker because he always attacked at night like a vampire. [6]

He shot the man in the head and was about to kill his wife when the dying man was able to scare Ramirez away by dialing 9-1-1. [1]

Unrecognized, the terror had begun a full year earlier, with the murder of a 79-year-old woman at her home in suburban Glassell Park, in June 1984. [4]

Outside police found a blue baseball-style cap with the name AC/DC on the front. [2]

During the attack, he also attempted to murder the victim’s roommate, but she was able to escape, providing the police with a description of the attacker. [1]

The action moved to Whittier on March 27, with 64-year-old Vincent Zazzara beaten to death in his home. [4]

Richard admired his father, but at the age of 12, he found a new hero, his cousin, Mike, a Vietnam veteran and ex-Green Beret. [...] A computer match was made of the prints, and identification of the Night Stalker became known. [3]

moon and mars august 2010

Saturday, August 28th, 2010

In case you haven’t heard: Mars will be as big as the full moon tonight. [1]

The infamous Mars hoax that widely circulated on the Internet since its first appearance in the summer of 2004 is rearing its head again. [2]

It states that the planet Mars will appear in the sky as large as the Moon on August 27, 2010. [3]

The original e-mail was about Mars in 2003 when the red planet came the closest to earth it had been in 60,000 years. [4]

Many are looking for Mars now that the date of the Mars email hoax – August 27 – is approaching. [...] In August 2010, you can use the brightest planet Venus to find Mars. [5]

The hoax has its origins in an event that occurred on Aug. 27, 2003, when Mars was closer to Earth than it had been in 60,000 years. [1]

The e-mail declares that on the night of Aug. 27, the planet Mars will come closer to Earth than it has in 60,000 years, thereby offering spectacular views of the Red Planet. [...] Mars made a historically close pass by Earth that night (34.6 million miles, or 55.7 million km). [2]

Mars was substantially brighter earlier this year, shining most brilliantly when this world came closest to Earth for the year on January 27, 2010. [6]

Right now, Mars is faint and barely visible in the western evening sky [Sky Map] just after the sun goes down. [1]

But the great distance between Mars and Earth never allows it to appear anywhere near as large as the moon in our sky. [2]

The Mars moon hoax has been around since at least 2007. [7]

Patrick Wiggins, a NASA and Solar System Ambassador to Utah told us earlier this month that even at it’s closest Mars is still over 34 MILLION miles away from earth. [4]

On August 27, 2010, Mars will be 314 million km [kilometers, or about 195 million miles] from Earth, about as far away as it can get. [3]
