<mask> (February 19, 1962 – January 7, 2010) was an American convicted murderer and sex offender who was executed in Louisiana for murder. <mask> was sentenced to death for the kidnapping and murder of Courtney LeBlanc, his 12-year-old stepdaughter. <mask> waived his appeals and asked to be executed, saying he would commit a similar crime again if he was ever given the opportunity. <mask> was executed at Louisiana State Penitentiary on January 7, 2010, becoming the first person executed in Louisiana since 2002 and the state's first voluntary execution. He remains the last person executed in Louisiana. Early life
<mask> was born on February 19, 1962, and grew up in Louisiana. He attended schools in the Baton Rouge area and was considered impaired.As a result, he was put in a special resource class, before his mother took him out of school altogether after the principal advised her to. Doctors believed Bordelon suffered from antisocial personality disorder and sexual sadism disorder but had an IQ in the normal range. On March 17, 1982, Bordelon offered an 18-year-old woman a ride home in his car. After she got in, he pulled out a knife, took her to a house, and forced oral sex on her. In 1982, he pleaded guilty to sexual battery and was sentenced to ten years in prison. On June 14, 1990, a woman was grabbed by Bordelon and abducted at knife point. He took the woman to an abandoned building where he forced oral sex on her.<mask> then raped her. In 1990, <mask> was convicted of forcible rape and was sentenced to twenty years in prison. Murder
In 2000, <mask> was released on parole and began working at Delta Concrete. In late 2000, he began communicating with a woman over the internet named Jennifer Kocke. Despite knowing about his criminal history as a sex offender, Kocke married Bordelon in July 2001. The family then moved to Gloster, Mississippi, in October 2001, living in a trailer on land owned by Bordelon's parents. During Christmas period in 2001, Kocke's daughters, one of whom was Courtney LeBlanc, told her that Bordelon had molested them.Kocke alerted child protective services in Mississippi and <mask> was forced to leave. The couple then separated and Kocke returned to Louisiana with her family. Despite this, she remained in contact with <mask>. On November 15, 2002, 12-year-old Courtney LeBlanc disappeared from her home in Denham Springs, Louisiana. Kocke discovered she was missing when she returned home and  immediately called the police. Initially it was believed that LeBlanc may have just run away from home. As the investigation continued, police were concerned that LeBlanc may have fallen victim to serial killer Derrick Todd Lee, who was operating in the area at the time, but this theory was later dismissed.Investigation then focused on <mask> and he was placed under surveillance. He was questioned by police and eventually admitted to kidnapping and murdering LeBlanc. On November 26, 2002, <mask> led investigators to LeBlanc's body. He confessed to the murder and said he had abducted LeBlanc from her home with a knife. He took her to Mississippi where he forced oral sex on her, before driving her back to Louisiana. Upon returning, he strangled her to death on a bank near the Amite River. He then dumped her body in a wooded area in Livingston Parish.Trial
<mask> was charged with first-degree murder and second-degree kidnapping for the death of LeBlanc. He was found guilty of first-degree murder on June 29, 2006, and was sentenced to death the following day. After being sentenced, he waived his appeals and asked that his execution be carried out. According to court documents, he said he would commit a similar crime again if he was ever given the opportunity. In October 2003, Jennifer Kocke was found guilty of felonious child abuse in connection with the murder of LeBlanc. She was sentenced to a suspended five-year term with five years probation. Execution
On January 7, 2010, <mask> was executed via lethal injection at Louisiana State Penitentiary in West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana.He was one of three people executed in the United States on that specific day. The others were Vernon Lamont Smith in Ohio and Kenneth Mosley in Texas. They were the first three people to be executed in the United States in 2010. The executions of three or more people within a single day is something that has not occurred in the United States since. In <mask>'s last statement, he apologized to LeBlanc's family as well as his own. His last meal was fried sac-a-lait fish, topped with crawfish étouffée, a peanut butter and apple jelly sandwich, and chocolate chip cookies. He was pronounced dead at 6:32 pm.As of 2021, <mask> remains the last person executed in Louisiana, which has gone over ten years without an execution. He is also the only person to have been executed in Louisiana since 2002, when Leslie Dale Martin was executed for murder. Due to a 2012 lawsuit challenging Louisiana's lethal injection protocol and drug companies not wanting their products associated with capital punishment, Louisiana is unable to carry out executions, despite capital punishment still being a legal penalty. In popular culture
In 2016, Courtney LeBlanc's murder case was featured on the Investigation Discovery series Deadline: Crime with Tamron Hall. See also

<mask> (25 May 1784 – 27 July 1877) was a prominent leader of the British Chartist movement in the Newport Rising. Early life
<mask> was born in Newport, Monmouthshire, where his father, also named <mask>, kept the "Royal Oak Inn", in Thomas Street (a blue plaque honouring <mask>'s birthplace is located on the side of the old Post Office in the High Street, marking the approximate street location). <mask> was mainly brought up as an orphan by his grandfather, a bootmaker, He was apprenticed to a woollen draper in Bristol and was later a shopman in London. <mask>'s political affiliations were greatly influenced by Thomas Paine and William Cobbett. <mask> and <mask> worshipped at Hope Baptist Chapel, situated behind the present day Commercial Street and Skinner Street and their eight children were all baptised there. <mask>'s mother Sarah died early in his childhood and he was brought up by his grandparents. He was apprenticed as a bootmaker to his grandfather and left home at the age of sixteen to become a draper's apprentice and tailor, first in Cardiff, then Bristol and later London.He returned to Newport in 1806 to start his own business, which became prosperous. He married a widow Mary Geach in 1812 and over the course of eleven years they had eight children. He was held in great esteem and affection for his appealing character and was commended for being "studious, quiet and obedient." Political career
In 1821, <mask> became embroiled in a dispute with a Newport solicitor, Thomas Prothero, who was also Town Clerk, over his uncle's will. In a letter <mask> accused Prothero of being responsible for the former's exclusion from the will. Prothero sued for libel and <mask> was ordered to pay £1,000. <mask> then accused Prothero of malpractice.Again, Prothero sued for libel and again won. In February 1823, <mask> was imprisoned for six months and told in no uncertain terms that further accusations against Prothero would lead to a longer sentence. After his release <mask>o's friends and business partners, notably Sir Charles Morgan of Tredegar House and Park, a major Newport and south Wales landowner and industrialist. In a pamphlet of 1830, he accused Morgan of mistreating his many tenants and advocated electoral reform as a means of bringing Morgan and others like him to account. An appreciation both of <mask>'s literary skill and his mounting exasperation can be gained easily from a consideration of his early letters, to Sir Charles Morgan himself amongst many others In the early 1830s <mask> increasingly became a champion of universal suffrage. Establishing himself as a prominent Chartist, he was elected in 1835 as a town councillor for Newport and appointed as a magistrate. He also became an Improvement Commissioner and Poor Law Guardian and the following year became Mayor of Newport.His aggressive behaviour and election as a delegate to the Chartist Convention in 1838 antagonised his old enemies. He was defeated in the mayoral election the following year and the Home Secretary also revoked his appointment as magistrate. Letter to Lord <mask>
Because of his continuing role within the Chartist Movement, Home Secretary Russell dismissed <mask> from his position as Justice of the Peace. In response, while at a Chartist Convention in Pontypool, <mask> responded to Russell in a straightforward letter, containing the contemporary Chartist songs of Wales, which gave expression to the feelings and determination of the Welsh coal miners:

Nonetheless, while the desire amongst the Welsh to rebel was ever stronger, <mask> himself still wished to postpone the date of an uprising. By the end of October, the Welsh Chartists were holding daily meetings in Monmouthshire in an attempt to force an armed rebellion. Records suggest that ultimately, finding himself unable to postpone the date of an organised uprising any longer and still doubting its success, <mask> burst into tears. A thirty-member conference ultimately fixed the date for 3 November.The Newport Rising

On 3–4 November 1839 <mask>, together with William Jones and Zephaniah Williams, led a Chartist march on the Westgate Inn in Newport. The rationale for the set piece confrontation remains opaque, although it may have its origins in <mask>'s ambivalence towards the more violent attitudes of some of the Chartists, and the personal animus he bore towards some of the Newport establishment who were ensconced in the hotel along with 60 armed soldiers. The Chartist movement in south east Wales was chaotic in this period, after the arrest of Henry Vincent, a leading agitator, who was imprisoned nearby in Monmouth gaol and the feelings of the workers were running extremely high, too high for <mask> to reason with and control. One of his contemporaries, William Price described <mask>'s stance at the time of the Newport Rising as being akin to "putting a sword in my hand and a rope around my neck." The march, which had been gathering momentum over the course of the whole weekend as <mask> and his associates led the protestors down from the valley towns above Newport, numbered some 3,000 when it entered the town. According to the plan, three columns from three directions were to march upon Newport and take the town before dawn. The contingent starting from Blackwood was commanded by <mask>, the detachment coming from Nantyglo by Williams and the main body of Pontypool by Jones.The three columns were to meet at Risca, but this did not come to pass; owing to a storm raging in the night, all of them arrived late, and the worst trouble was that the delay gave the Newport authorities ample time to get wind of what was afoot and make ready to confront the coming armed Chartists. Special constables were sworn in hastily, the known Chartists of Newport were arrested and shut up in the Westgate Hotel where the mayor held 30 soldiers in reserve. The Chartist troops led by <mask>, proceeding to the hotel at 9:30 am and demanding the surrender of the Chartist prisoners with armed menace, advanced to the door. When the soldiers posted in the hotel started firing, ten to fifteen Chartists died instantly, about 50 were wounded. The bloody event was over in 20 minutes. The Chartist miners were in a very bad strategic position, and the firing took them by surprise. When they withdrew, they met the contingent of Williams and outside the town, the column of Jones.The Times estimated that the strength of the Chartists contingent at 8,000 whilst the chartist Robert Gammage estimated 20,000. Overall the battle of the Westgate lasted only about 25 minutes, but at its close some 22 people lay dead or dying and upwards of 50 had been injured. An eyewitness report spoke of one man, wounded with gunshot, lying on the ground, pleading for help until he died an hour later. Reprisal by the local council

The reprisal by the local council followed immediately. The three commanders and 150 Chartists were arrested in a short time. The rumour spread that the Chartists insurgents intended to take Cardiff on 5 November. The Cardiff magistrates were seized with panic: in addition to mobilising the special constables they built up serious military defences and the crew of an American vessel lying at anchor in the port were also brought to the aid of the authorities.After Newport, however the Welsh Valleys were wrapped in quiet, and even the English manufacturing districts were paralysed for a short while. Trial and sentencing

A reward of £100 was offered for <mask>'s capture and he was arrested by solicitor and clerk Thomas Jones Phillips and charged with high treason. Early in 1840, along with Jones and Williams, was tried at Monmouth's Shire Hall. All three were found guilty and became the last men in Britain to be sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered. The Chartists stood up as one man for the Newport leaders under sentences of death. O'Connor, O'Brien, Harney Taylor and other Chartists leaders free on bail rose to speak on their behalf. O'Connor offered one week's income of the Northern Star for a Frost fund and retained one of the best lawyers of the time, Sir Frederick Pollock as defence counsel.Following a huge public outcry, however, these sentences were discussed by the Cabinet and on 1 February the Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne, announced that the executions would be commuted to transportation for life. On reaching Van Diemen's Land (modern Tasmania), <mask> was immediately sentenced to two years' hard labour for making a disparaging remark about Lord <mask>, the Colonial Secretary. <mask> was indentured to a local storekeeper in New Town after his probation term ended in November 1843. He spent three years working as a clerk, before being sent to Bothwell in May 1846 and receiving his ticket of leave in November 1846. He worked as a school teacher in various locations around Tasmania for almost eight years until he received a conditional pardon on 27 Jun 1854. Chartists in Britain continued to campaign for the release of <mask>. Thomas Duncombe pleaded <mask>'s case in the House of Commons but his attempt to secure a pardon in 1846 was unsuccessful.Duncombe refused to be defeated and in 1854 he persuaded the Prime Minister, Lord Aberdeen, to grant <mask> a pardon on the condition that he never returned to Britain. <mask> sailed for the United States six months after receiving his conditional pardon, with his daughter, Catherine, who had joined him in Tasmania, and toured the country, organised by William Prowting Roberts, lecturing on the supposed unfairness of the British system of government. Later life

In 1856, when the residency condition was lifted, <mask> was given an unconditional pardon and he straightaway sailed for Bristol, arriving on 12 July. He retired to Stapleton, near the city, but continued to publish articles advocating reform until his death there, aged 93, in 1877. <mask> was buried in the churchyard of the Church of the Holy Trinity with St Edmund, Horfield, Bristol in accordance with his will. In the 1980s Richard Frame found <mask>'s lost grave site and organised for a new headstone to be created and erected on the site, with the aid of a grant from Newport council. The new headstone was unveiled by Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock.A plaque has been added to the wall of The Mynde in Caerleon reading:

<mask> Square, in Newport city centre, was named in his honour. A 1978 mural of the Newport Rising by Kenneth Budd in the square was demolished in 2013. A trust is to be set up to commission a new memorial with £50,000 of funding provided by Newport City Council. A planning application was approved on 3 Apr 2019  to set up a quarter-scale replica of the Newport Rising mural in Rogerstone, three miles from the city centre. Kenneth Budd's son Oliver has been commissioned to make it using the original drawings from 1978. In 1991, three statues by Christopher Kelly commemorating the Chartist Newport Rising entitled Union, Prudence, Energy were installed outside the Westgate Hotel in Newport. See also

<mask> (; 12 June 1961 – 19 April 2017, born in Haifeng, China), also known as "Teeth Dog" and "Goosehead", was an infamous Chinese illegal immigrant turned gangster who was most active in Hong Kong from the early 1980s to 1990s. He and his gang specialised in robbing jewellery stores with assault rifles. Their weapon of choice was the AK-47 assault rifle, which they acquired from black markets hosted by triads. He is also the first person to have used an AK-47 during an armed-robbery in Hong Kong. Early crimes
In October 1984, when he was 23, <mask> led a gang of five armed mainland men into Hong Kong. They robbed two jewelry stores, King Fook Jewellery Co. Ltd on 10 October 1984 and Dickson Jewellery Co. Ltd. on 27 October 1984; they managed to obtain more than  million worth of precious items as a result. In the course of both robberies, shots were fired.An undercover policeman posed as a potential buyer for the stolen goods as part of a sting operation. During the subsequent 28 December 1984 meeting, once the policeman identified himself, Yip attempted to shoot him and a violent struggle occurred. After Yip was subdued, he was found with two handguns, later linked by ballistics to the October robberies. Yip was convicted on four counts (two counts of handling stolen goods for each robbery, possession of firearms, and use of a firearm with intent to resist arrest) and sentenced to 18 years in prison. Yip contested the conviction, claiming that he was asked only to find a buyer for what he thought were sub-standard watches produced in local factories; his appeal was dismissed in 1987. But he escaped on 24 August 1989, when he faked appendicitis and was transferred to Queen Mary Hospital. In the toilet, he jumped his two officers with broken bottles and made off in a van parked at the hospital entrance.He hijacked the van with two occupants inside, a 37-year-old van driver and driver's 6-year-old son. While driving, he forced the driver to take off shoes and clothes so Yip could put them on. He got off at Wong Chuk Hang and left the scene by bus. He is presumed to have fled into mainland China. On the run

AK-47 heists
On 9 June 1991, he and his gang, armed with AK-47s and pistols, robbed five goldsmiths shops on the "Golden" Mut Wah Street in Kwun Tong. They fired 54 shots at police and escaped with gold and jewelry worth  million. Many onlookers believed the gun battle was being staged for a film.The gang was linked to a robbery of two jewelers on Tai Po Road in Sham Shui Po on 10 March 1992. During the course of that robbery, gang members fired 65 shots at police and members of the public, escaping with  million worth of jewelry. <mask> is thought to have been involved in a 6 January 1993 jewelry store robbery on Nathan Road in Mong Kok, when a gang fired 30 rounds from AK-47s, killing a woman passerby. One robber was shot by police during the chase; the others dumped his body on the street when they switched getaway cars. Macau police suspected Yip was involved in an April 1994 armed heist of  million in gambling chips from the casino at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on Taipa. In 1995, Yip moved his crime operation to Shenzhen, participating in the January abduction and murder of a Tianjin businessman and the November murder of a police informant. The total worth of his stolen goods is estimated at  million (Approximately $2,576,920 US).Yip achieved notoriety by escaping police custody multiple times. Capture and trial
His career finally came to an end on 13 May 1996 when he was arrested following a Kennedy Town gunfight with police that left him paralyzed from the waist down. At the time he had a  million reward on his head, but the two officers involved did not receive the reward. Two police officers had surprised Yip and his gang in an alley near the waterfront. Since they had just debarked from a boat, the police suspected they were illegal immigrants and asked for identification. The rest of the gang fled, but Yip pulled a gun from a bag and began shooting. During an ensuing foot pursuit, the officers testified they ordered him to drop his gun, which he refused to do, instead shooting at the officers.After his gun jammed, he was captured. He was found with a machine gun, a pistol, and 1.8 kg of explosives. He was charged with possession of firearms and ammunition without a licence and shooting with intent to do grievous bodily harm stemming from wounds one of the officers received in the course of the arrest. While <mask> was recovering from his injuries, additional charges of escaping custody and kidnapping (during the van hijack) were added stemming from his 1989 escape. During the lead-up to the trial, a fictionalized version of <mask>'s life was filmed as King of Robbery (), also known as Life Will Never Be Twice, starring Simon Yam and Roy Cheung), but its planned August 1996 release was delayed by court order. Yip's trial began on 18 February 1997, with the defence claiming the police shot Yip in the back and then stole  from him. He dismissed his defence team two days later, apparently falling asleep when given the chance to cross-examine a prosecution witness.On 10 March 1997, he was convicted of all charges and sentenced to 41 years in prison, which consists of the 11 years he had left on his original sentence and 30 years on the new charges, to be served consecutively. The earliest year in which he could have been released was   2022. Imprisonment and death
Yip's lawyers appealed his conviction, stating the publicity surrounding his arrest was prejudicial to the jury, but lost the appeal on 8 December 1998. A separate appeal to reduce his sentence, based on his injuries and subsequent care, was heard in March 1999. The Court of Appeal reduced his sentence by approximately five years. Yip subsequently went to the Court of Final Appeal seeking a reduction in his sentence based on his 'catastrophic' medical condition, but the appeal was denied. He was married to his mainland wife in August 2003.He had been previously married (to the same woman) under a false name before his imprisonment. <mask> continued to maintain his innocence over the 1996 shootout, offering a substantial reward for a witness he alleges saw the events leading up to his arrest. Yip converted to Christianity in March 2004. <mask> was sentenced on 11 January 2010 to an additional six months in jail for assaulting an officer at Stanley Prison on 30 April 2009. He had complained that he had been badly treated by prison guards. On 1 April 2017, he was hospitalized at Queen Mary Hospital for cancer treatment. He died on 19 April 2017 of lung cancer.Cultural influence

On March 7, in another Telegraph article, discussing an information war, <mask> argued that "a robust campaign to tell the truth about Crimea is needed to counter Moscow's lies". At the end of August, she asked whether Ukraine should prepare for "total war" with Russia and whether central Europeans should join them. In 2014, writing in The New York Review of Books she asked (in a review of Karen Dawisha's Putin's Kleptocracy) whether "the most important story of the past twenty years might not, in fact, have been the failure of democracy, but the rise of a new form of Russian authoritarianism".She has described the "myth of Russian humiliation" and argued that NATO and EU expansion have been a "phenomenal success". In July 2016, before the US election, she was one of the first American journalists to write about the significance of Russia's ties to Donald Trump and wrote that Russian support for Trump was part of a wider Russian political campaign designed to destabilize the West. In December 2019, she wrote in The Atlantic that  "in the 21st century, we must also contend with a new phenomenon: right-wing intellectuals, now deeply critical of their own societies, who have begun paying court to right-wing dictators who dislike America." Speaking on the "BBC Today" programme on 22 January 2022 (07.10) and on February 20, 2022 at the Munich Security Conference (4.30), <mask> maintained that the concerns of the Russian Federation regarding the possible admission of the Ukraine to NATO were merely a cover for a fear of democracy developing on its frontiers. Central Europe
<mask> has written extensively about the history of central and eastern Europe, Poland in particular. In the conclusion to her book Iron Curtain, <mask> argued that the reconstruction of civil society was the most important and most difficult challenge for the post-communist states of central Europe; in another essay, she argued that the modern authoritarian obsession with civil society repression dates back to Vladimir Lenin. She has written essays on the Polish film-maker Andrzej Wajda, on the dual Nazi–Soviet occupation of central Europe, and on why it is inaccurate to define "Eastern Europe" as a single entity.<mask> has described Poland's governing party, Law and Justice (PiS), as xenophobic and nationalist. Iraq War
On October 1, 2002, <mask> wrote an article for Slate entitled, "You Can’t Assume a Nut Will Act Rationally," in which she argued that Saddam Hussein is not a rational agent in a manner comparable to Adolf Hitler. Disinformation, propaganda and fake news
In 2014, <mask> and Peter Pomerantsev launched Beyond Propaganda, a program examining disinformation and propaganda, at the Legatum Institute. <mask> wrote that a 2014 Russian smear campaign aimed at her when she was writing heavily about the Russian annexation of Crimea. Dubious material posted on the web was eventually recycled by semi-respectable American pro-Russian websites. <mask> argued in 2015 that Facebook should take responsibility for spreading false stories and help "undo the terrible damage done by Facebook and other forms of social media to democratic debate and civilized discussion all over the world". Nationalism
In March 2016, eight months before the election of President Donald Trump, <mask> wrote a Washington Post column asking, "Is this the end of the West as we know it?", which argued that "we are two or three bad elections away from the end of NATO, the end of the European Union and maybe the end of the liberal world order". <mask> endorsed Hillary Clinton's campaign for president in July 2016 on the grounds that Trump is "a man who appears bent on destroying the alliances that preserve international peace and American power". <mask>'s March 2016 Washington Post column inspired the Swiss magazine Tages-Anzeiger and the German magazine Der Spiegel to interview her, the articles appearing in December 2016 and January 2017. She argued very early on that the movement had an international dimension, that populist groups in Europe share "ideas and ideology, friends and founders", and that, unlike Burkean conservatives, they seek to "overthrow the institutions of the present to bring back things that existed in the past—or that they believe existed in the past—by force." <mask> has underlined the danger of a new "Nationalist International", a union of xenophobic, nationalist parties such as Law and Justice in Poland, the Northern League in Italy, and the Freedom Party in Austria. In January 2022, <mask> was invited to testify before the US House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee hearing about bolstering democracy in the age of rising authoritarianism. Affiliations
<mask> is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.She is on the board of the National Endowment for Democracy and Renew Democracy Initiative. She was a member of the Institute for War and Peace Reporting's International Board of Directors. She was a Senior Adjunct Fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) where she co-led a major initiative aimed at countering Russian disinformation in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). She was on the editorial board for The American Interest and the Journal of Democracy. Personal life
In 1992, <mask> married Radosław Sikorski, who later served as Poland's Defence Minister, Foreign Minister, and Marshal of the Sejm. The couple have two sons, Aleksander and Tadeusz. She became a Polish citizen in 2013.She speaks Polish and Russian in addition to English. The Atlantic. 15 November 2021. Wybór (Choice), Agora, 2021, 320 pages, ISBN 978-8326838569; hardback

He is also a leader in biomaterials, bionanotechnology, nano materials and bionanotechnology, and has contributed seminal work in the fields of feedback controlled biomedical devices and molecular recognition. The multidisciplinary approach of his research in bionanotechnology and biomolecular engineering blends modern molecular and cellular biology with engineering to generate the next-generation of medical systems and devices, including bioMEMS with enhanced applicability, reliability, functionality, and longevity. His contributions have been translated into more than twenty medical products. <mask> is a member of the US National Academy of Medicine, the US National Academy of Engineering (NAE), the National Academy of Inventors (NAI), the Académie Nationale of France, the Academy of Athens, the Real Academia Nacional de Farmacia of Spain and the Academy of Medicine, Engineering and Sciences of Texas (TAMEST). Very few chemical engineers are members of both NAE and IOM (including <mask>, Mark Davis, David Mooney of Harvard, and David A. Tirrell of the California Institute of Technology, Rakesh Jain of Harvard, Robert Langer of MIT, and his former students <mask> Mikos  of Rice University and Kristi <mask> of the University of Colorado). He has received honorary doctorates from the University of Ghent (Belgium, 1999), the University of Parma (Italy, 2000), the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens(Greece, 2000), the University of Ljubljana and the University of Patras (Greece, 2015)  and an Honorary Professorship from Sichuan University (China, 2012).He is President of the International Union of Societies for Biomaterials Science and Engineering (2008–2016). He has served as a Director of the Biomedical Engineering Society (2008–2011), Chair of the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE, 2006–2007), President of the Society for Biomaterials (SFB, 2003–2004), President of the Controlled Release Society (CRS, 1987–1988), Director of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE, 1999-2002), Chair of the Engineering Section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS, 2014–15), Chairman of the Materials Division of AIChE  (1988–90) and Director of the Bioengineering Division of AIChE  (1994–97). <mask> was Editor of the leading biomaterials science journal Biomaterials from 1982 to 2002, an Associate Editor of the AIChE Journal, from 2009-2012, Editor-in-Chief of the Wiley/SFB Biomaterials Book Series (2006-2014), an Associate Editor of Biomedical Microdevices, a Consulting Editor of Pharmaceutical Research and an Associate Editor of the Cambridge University Press Biomedical Series.

Peppas is a leading scientist of modern drug delivery. He has helped to set the fundamentals and rational design of drug delivery systems and biomaterials over the past 39 years.He was the first to set the theories and equations that led to the design of a wide range of new systems. For example, using biomedical engineering principles and new biomedical transport theories, <mask> developed the equations that describe Fickian and non-Fickian diffusion of drugs, peptides and proteins in controlled release devices. The "Peppas equation" has become the standard method of analysis of pharmaceutical formulations or systems. His earliest work also led to the development of a number of swelling-controlled release devices for the release of small molecular weight drugs. Using the modeling similarities of phase erosion and state erosion, he developed a unified model for all drug delivery systems. Similarly, he developed the theoretical framework for the analysis of transport through crosslinked biomaterials (the Peppas-Reinhart theory), ionic hydrogels (the Brannon-Peppas theory), and gel-tissue interactions via tethers (the Huang-Peppas theory and the Sahlin-Peppas equation). For the profound impact of these theories and analyses, <mask> has been recognized as the most cited and highly published author in "drug delivery", "biomaterials and drug delivery", and "intelligent materials".He is listed as a Highly Cited ResearcherSM of Thomson Scientific and the Institute of Scientific Information. He has also ranked as the most cited chemical  and biomedical engineer  with 106,026 citations and an H-index of 152. Applications of his theories and mathematical models have had a profound effect in the field. <mask> and his students originated the novel muco- and bioadhesive systems that interact molecularly with the mucus and tissue and have been able to prolong bioavailability of proteins and peptides in the blood. As a result of his work, a number of biomedical polymers and commercial delivery devices have been launched. <mask> was the first to develop novel toxic-free poly(vinyl alcohol) gels by the freezing-thawing technique in 1975. These gels became very successful articular cartilage replacement systems.In 1978, he developed the same systems for in situ replacement of vocal cords. In 1979 his group pioneered the use of hydrogels in drug delivery applications, including epidermal bioadhesive systems and systems for the release of theophylline, proxyphylline, diltiazem, and oxprenolol. <mask>' lab has developed new technologies of oral delivery systems for insulin and other proteins. These devices release insulin orally, "protecting" the insulin throughout its transport in the stomach, upper small intestine, and, eventually, blood, and bypassing diabetics' need for several daily injections. The same technology has been used for the transmucosal (oral, buccal) delivery of calcitonin (for treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women) and interferon-alpha (for cancer therapy), and is being investigated for interferon-beta release for multiple sclerotic patients. <mask> was one of the pioneers of intelligent biomaterials, and medical devices. Using intelligent polymers as early as 1980, <mask> and his group were the first to use such pH-sensitive and temperature-sensitive systems for modulated release of streptokinase and other fibrinolytic enzymes.<mask> has founded three companies: Mimetic Solutions, Appian Labs and CoraDyn Biosystems for the commercialization of various pharmaceutical products and medical devices. He is the author of 1,450 publications, and numerous proceedings papers and abstracts, with more than 80,000 citations and an H-index of 135. He is the coauthor or coeditor of 37 books, including the three-volume Hydrogels in Medicine and Pharmacy (CRC Press, 1987), the monograph Pulsatile Drug Delivery (WSGS, Stuttgart, 1993), two books on Biopolymers (Springer, 1994), the monograph Molecular and Cellular Foundations of Biomaterials (Academic Press, 2004), the book Intelligent Therapeutics: Biomimetic Systems and Nanotechnology in Drug Delivery (Elsevier, 2004), the monograph Nanotechnology in Therapeutics (Horizon Press, 2007) and the book Chronobiology and Drug Delivery (Elsevier, 2007). Awards
He has been awarded more than 150 national and international awards. In 1991, the journal Polymer News recognized him as a polymer pioneer. Finally, in 2002, he was recognized as a biomedical pioneer by the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Researchers under his supervision
<mask> has supervised more than 875 researchers, visiting scientists and graduate students including 100 PhDs, of which 54 are now professors in other Universities.Many others have become leading biomedical scientists, engineers, physicians and medical professionals. Peppas' former students are affectionately called "peppamers". Four of the former students of Professor <mask> have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), National Academy of Sciences (NAS), National Academy of Medicine (NAM), and National Academy of Inventors (NAI) - Kristi <mask> (NAS, NAE, NAM, NAI); John Klier (NAE); Richard Korsmeyer (NAE); <mask> (NAI); <mask> Mikos (NAE, NAM, NAI). Personal life
<mask> is married to Lisa Brannon-<mask>, whom he met at Purdue University where she was doing her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering. They have two children, Katherine and <mask>. They reside in Austin, Texas. Peppas' extracurricular activities  include writing about the history of chemical engineering, opera, history and other subjects.He has published books and review articles on the subject. His review of the Centennial of AIChE was published by the Chemical Heritage Foundation in August 2008. <mask> is also an avid record collector and author of biographies and monographs on opera. A book on the Greek tenor Vasso <mask>: The Great Greek Tenor of the Interwar Years was published in 2008. He has also written numerous biographies on Greek opera singers including the tenor of La Scala Nicola Filacuridi (1924-2009), the soprano of the Paris Opera Elen Dosia (1913-2002), the celebrated Greek tenor Michael Theodore (1939- ) who had a radio and record career in Germany, the lyric tenor <mask> Delendas (1902-1966), the celebrated Greek soprano of the Scala di Milano Rena Gary Falachi, (Rena Garyfallaki, 1920- ), the bass Petros Hoidas (1914-1977), the tenor of the Vienna State Opera Petros Baxevanos (1904-1982), the tenor of the Lyric Opera of Athens Nikos Hatzinikolaou (1929- ), the internationally known Greek singers Nicola Zaccaria (1923-2007), Nicola Moscona (1907-1975), Kostas Paskalis (1929-2007), Efthymios Mihalopoulos (1937- ), and Pavlos Raptis (1938- ) and many others.

<mask> (born April 4, 1944) is an American actor and comedian. He is known for his roles as Hayden Fox in the sitcom Coach (for which he won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series), Deputy Ward Wilson in the 1980 film Stir Crazy, Steve Freeling in the 1982 film Poltergeist, Peter Dellaplane in Action Jackson, Chief Howard Hyde in Turner & Hooch (1989), Alex Cullen in The Devil's Advocate (1997), Chief Jack Mannion in The District (2000-2004), <mask> Warden in My Name is Earl, and Mr. Incredible in the 2004 film The Incredibles and its 2018 sequel. He also starred as Zeek Braverman in the television series Parenthood. Early life
<mask> was born <mask> in Spokane, Washington, on April 4, 1944. He was the son of Vera Margaret (née Spindler; 1906–1971), a dancer, and <mask> (1900–1964), a businessman. <mask> attended Lewis and Clark High School, where he played football, baseball, and basketball.After high school, <mask> studied at Central Washington University. After flunking out, <mask> went to Yakima Valley College where he was  inspired to study acting by his drama teacher, Mr. Brady. From Yakima, he went on to study drama at the University of Arizona on a scholarship. In 1969, <mask> dropped out of school and moved to Hollywood to pursue an acting career. When he first moved to California, he took up a job as a security guard at a soap factory until finding work as a comedy writer. Career
<mask> began his show business career as a comedian. He was an early member of The Groundlings improv and sketch comedy troupe.<mask>, Barry Levinson, and Rudy De Luca formed their own comedy team and were regular performers at The Comedy Store and on the short-lived The Tim Conway Comedy Hour (1970). In 1973, <mask> left the comedy world, explaining "the standup comedy life was pretty unfulfilling for me" and he settled in Montgomery Creek, California where there was no electricity and no running water; "it was contentment, The Waltons", he said. <mask> had different jobs during that time including janitor, plumber, carpenter, surveyor, and high school teacher in Burney, CA. He returned to acting five years later. He was featured as a prosecuting attorney who opposes Al Pacino in the 1979 film ...And Justice for All, co-written by Levinson. In 1983, <mask> appeared in Silkwood, directed by Mike Nichols and starring Meryl Streep, as the high school football coach of <mask> in the drama All the Right Moves and as one of the stars of director Sam Peckinpah's final film, The Osterman Weekend. He has appeared in many other motion pictures (most notably the Poltergeist series) and had featured roles in five television shows (Coach, Call to Glory, The District, My Name Is Earl, and Parenthood).Coach ran from 1989 to 1997, with <mask> starring as college football coach Hayden Fox. He provided the voice of Bob Parr (also known as Mr. Incredible) in the computer-animated superhero film, The Incredibles, and returned to the role for its sequel, Incredibles 2. <mask> also reprised the role again in the video games Kinect Rush: A Disney-Pixar Adventure and in the Disney Infinity video game series, except for the video game and The Incredibles: Rise of the Underminer, where he was replaced by actor Richard McGonagle. During the early 1990s, he made a guest appearance in the music video for country singer Garth Brooks's song "We Shall Be Free." <mask> made a three-episode guest appearance on CSI: NY as a "nemesis" of Gary Sinise's <mask>. His latest films include 2009's The Proposal as Ryan Reynolds' skeptical father, 2010's The Company Men as a greedy CEO, and 2018‘s Book Club.From 2010 to 2015, he starred in the television show Parenthood as Ezekiel "Zeek" Braverman, the family patriarch. His production company is Family Tree Productions. Political views
<mask> stated in an interview with Glenn Beck that he had been on welfare and collected food stamps. In that same interview, he railed at taxes, government, and the lack of fiscal responsibility in society. He also stated that he was thinking about no longer paying taxes because he disapproved of using public funds to rescue those struggling. "What happened to society? I go into business, I don’t make it, I go bankrupt.I’ve been on food stamps and welfare, did anybody help me out? No. No. They gave me hope, they gave me encouragement, and they gave me a vision." On The Daily Show, Jon Stewart discussed <mask> saying “I’ve been on food stamps and welfare, did anybody help me out? No.” Stewart called it “perhaps my favorite sound bite of all time.”

Personal life
<mask> has three children from his previous marriage to Robin McCarthy. His second wife Doria <mask> is a freelance writer, president of a martial arts association, karate instructor, tai chi teacher and a former film and television actress who had a featured role in the movie musical Mame.<mask> is a motorsports fan and an avid racer. He first participated in the 1991 Toyota Celebrity Long Beach Grand Prix and finished ninth. In 1992, he founded Screaming Eagles Racing with John Christie and entered and drove a Toyota-engined Spice SE90 in the IMSA 1994 WSC, a Lexus-engined Spice SE90 in 1995 and a Ford-engined Riley & Scott MkIII in the 1996 and 1997 championships.

<mask> (born April 9, 1961) is an appellate attorney in Washington, D.C., and is a partner with Kellogg, Hansen, Todd, Figel & Frederick, P.L.L.C. Education and legal training

Born on Naval Station Great Lakes, <mask> earned a bachelor's degree in 1983 from the University of Pittsburgh. <mask> obtained a Doctor of Philosophy degree from University College, Oxford in 1987 as a Rhodes Scholar. In 1989, <mask> earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Texas School of Law in Austin, where he also served as articles editor for the Texas Law Review. Professional career

After law school, <mask> clerked for Judge Joseph T. Sneed of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and Justice Byron R. White of the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1995, he was named counselor to the Inspector General. One year later, he became the assistant to the Solicitor General, a position he held until 2001.During his time with the Solicitor General's Office he earned the Department of Justice Inspector General’s Award for Exceptional Service, the Attorney General’s Distinguished Service Award and the Coast Guard Medal for Distinguished Public Service. <mask> has argued fifty cases in the Supreme Court of the United States, across a wide range of issues and industries. <mask>'s victories often strengthen plaintiff and consumer interests. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated an ability to persuade conservative justices to take pro-consumer positions. Pharmaceutical industry

In Wyeth v. Levine (6-3), <mask> helped to convince Justices Stevens, Ginsburg, Kennedy, Souter and Thomas that federal approval of labels that provide warnings about side effects of drugs do not bar lawsuits claiming inadequate warnings of a health risk in state law. In the case, Diana Levine sued Wyeth for failing to warn patients that the drug Phenergan could cause gangrene when administered using direct IV injection. The 2009 verdict, which overturned a ruling by the Vermont Supreme Court, was a victory for Levine and for victims who could continue bringing their cases to state courts.In 2010, in Merck & Co. v. Reynolds, <mask> argued against the application of a statute of limitations for securities fraud cases based on mere inquiry notice of potential fraud. In this particular case, shareholders sued Merck after the value of $10 billion Vioxx tanked due to concerns about dangerous side effects arguing that Merck withheld information about the dangers of the drug. Merck asserted a statute of limitations defense, which would have ended before the shareholders had knowledge of all the requisite elements of fraud, but <mask>usano (9-0), <mask> argued that statistics involving adverse drug event reports could not negate materiality as a matter of law in a securities fraud suit if the number of adverse reports was not "statistically significant", upholding the decision of the Ninth Circuit. In 2013, <mask> successfully represented Kaiser in defending a $142 million jury verdict against Pfizer for fraudulent off-label marketing of Neurontin. Sports industry

NFL concussion settlement
In 2013, <mask> and a team of lawyers represented 4,500 retired NFL players in a high-profile case against the National Football League. <mask> represented the retired players at oral argument in the district court against the NFL’s motion to dismiss the complaints on the ground of preemption under the Labor-Management Relations Act.Among other arguments, <mask> argued that the NFL actively concealed the health risks of concussions to NFL players. The case reached a $765 million settlement to fund medical exams, concussion-related compensation and medical research. MASN
<mask> also represented the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN) during negotiations with Comcast to bring the Washington Nationals and Baltimore Orioles to Comcast's programming lineup in the Washington D.C. area. <mask> also represented MASN through three successful Federal Communications Commission (FCC) arbitration rulings against Time Warner Cable. Other noteworthy cases
Other noteworthy cases argued by <mask> include:  South Carolina v. North Carolina, Idaho v. United States, New Jersey v. Delaware, United States v. Locke, Farina v. Nokia, Inc., Carter v. United States, and California v. Deep Sea Research. He has argued cases in all of the thirteen U.S. courts of appeals. In 2001, <mask> represented the United States in oral arguments before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C.Circuit in United States v. Microsoft Corporation in an appeal of the landmark antitrust trial that had held Microsoft Corporation liable for violating antitrust laws. In Bates v. Dow AgroSciences LLC, Frederick represented a group of peanut farmers from Texas whose crops had burned after the application of an herbicide produced by respondent Dow AgroSciences. The court held in 2005 that the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act’s express preemption provision does not preclude a range of claims that farmers might bring against manufacturers of agricultural pesticides and insecticides. In 2008, Altria Group, Inc. v. Good examined whether state-law fraud claims against cigarette makers for allegedly false statements made about light cigarettes are preempted under the federal statute that concerns tobacco labeling.
