As early as the 1840s, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes (father of the Supreme Court justice) advocated that physicians should wash their hands between patient visits. His ideas were considered extreme and slightly mad at the time, but eventually hand washing became routine throughout the world of medical practice and beyond. Today many people are required by law to wash their hands as a condition of employment because frequent hand washing is still considered the single most effective way to prevent the spread of communicable disease. [Pg.992]

Prion protein nomenclature or Abandon hope all ye who enter here . There is no doubt that the nomenclamre of the TSE field can be confusing to outside observers and seasoned researchers alike. Part of this confusion arises from the genuine uncertainty that exists about the normal function (s) of PrP, the nature of TSE infectivity, and the various and variable abnormal properties of PrP most relevant to infectivity and/or TSE pathogenesis. No attempt has been made to unify the terminology used in the different chapters of this volume for two reasons. Eirst, this seems like a hopeless task. Second, it is my belief that the nomenclature in any rapidly changing field should evolve with the facts as they are revealed. This state of flux will naturally require that authors carefully define and redefine their usage of terminology from time to time. Unfortunately, it also may require that readers of literature have the patience of Job and the semantic acumen of Supreme Court justices. [Pg.419]

The business community s massive investment in judicial elections through the Chamber of Commerce and related organizations had an impact on judicial behavior. A study of the votes of Supreme Court justices elected in Texas between 1994 and 1998 concluded that the justices were four times as likely to hear appeals from their campaign contributors and ten times more likely to hear appeals from substantial contributors. An analysis of the Ohio Supreme Court concluded that justices receiving contributions from parties involved in cases before their courts voted in favor of their contributors 70 percent of the time. And in a 2002 poll of 894 elected judges, only 36 percent said that campaign contributions had no influence at all on their decisions. ... [Pg.213]
