The structure of this story made this transition very smooth. The lead of the story was about the death of Seth Walsh, 13, who had attempted suicide after coming out.

The story then broadened to other gay teens who have committed suicide after coming out. Then the story focused on what lead to these unfortunate incidents.

Gay rights and discrimination are also discussed thoroughly in the article.

McKinley ended the story where it began by using a "kicker quote" from Walsh's mother.

On Top magazine reports that more than 500 people attended Walsh's memorial service on Friday.

Walsh is one of many gay teens who commit suicide in recent months. The pressures these young men face in classrooms and in society at large.

Historic sites in Venice, such as the Bridge of Sighs, need to undergo renovation. Since 2008, these renovations have been paid for by advertisements placed on the scaffolding.

The University 0f Wisconsin-based Center for Investigating Healthy Minds received a gift of $50 thousand to advance research in mindfulness. The research will be lead by Dr. Richard Davidson.

"We are deeply honored that His Holiness the Dalai Lama is so supportive of our work," Davidson said to The Cap Times.

The New York Times names the Dalai Lama in its lead and headline, yet he is not one attributed to once in the article. This piece focuses more on the work being done by Dr. Richard Davidson at the Center for Investigating Healthy Minds.

When referring to Davidson, the times typically used the traditional "said" with both direct quotes and paraphrased quotes. Once in this article, they deviate in a way that is usually best avoided:

"It's about changing habits of the heart," said Dr. Davidson, 58, a Brooklyn native with gray-flecked hair, a warm smile and, as might be expected, a kind manner that puts people at ease.

The Cap Times, also covering this story, made a different style choice. "Said" was the word of choice for The Cap Times.

One sentence was not enough for Weingarten to open the story and hook the reader. Two sentences formed the lead. Although this is not necessarily incorrect, the information could have been easily been condensed to one sentence with some of the interesting facts included in the second paragraph.
