When can you evict a tenant for a family member?
It's true that a landlord can evict a tenant, if a family member is moving in. But that had better be the case.

When can you evict a tenant for a family member?
John from Toronto wondered if he could get rid of a problem tenant by letting his son to live in the apartment and how long his son would have to live there before he could rent it to someone else.
The question shows the confusion, as well as the lack of trust, on the part of both landlords and tenants when it comes ending a lease because you want the apartment or house for a family member, or when a buyer of a home requires vacant possession after closing. There are several issues.
A landlord can end a residential lease at the end of its term by giving 60 days' notice if he can prove that he needs the place for a family member. The family member must either be the landlord, their spouse, child, parent or caregiver to any of the above, provided the person being cared for also lives in the building. Family members includes same sex couples and married as well as common law relationships.
End of term means the end of the lease. If your tenant has a lease with 10 months left, you cannot evict them before the end of the 10 months. If the tenant is on a monthly lease, with rent payable on the first of the month, and today is April 15, then the earliest you can terminate the tenancy is June 30. If the tenant does not leave on June 30, you can apply to the Landlord and Tenant Board for an eviction order.
Many tenants are suspicious when landlords give this notice. They think it is an excuse to evict them so that they can double the rent for a new tenant, without having to get the rent increase approved by the Board. Others are suspicious the landlord may be just using it as an excuse when they have been having problems with the tenant.
The case depends on whether the judge will believe that the landlord really needs the unit for a family member. There have been other cases that suggest you cannot evict a tenant citing the need to use it for a family member, if you want to use the space for extra storage or an office. You must be able to demonstrate that it is extra living space.
If the property is owned by a corporation, then although a corporation is not a real person, with no family, the cases have held that if the landlord can demonstrate that the corporation is owned and controlled by a single person, then that single person can apply to terminate the tenancy using this reason.
If a buyer wants vacant possession of the property on closing, for themselves or for a family member, then there is a restriction in the Act that the building being purchased must not have more than three rental units. A condominium is considered a single family dwelling. Therefore if you are buying a fourplex, then you cannot evict any of the tenants on closing using this reason. However, after closing, you can use the family reason noted above to evict one or more of the tenants as long as you can prove that you need one or more of the rental units for your family.
By understanding when and how you can evict a tenant for a family member, hopefully landlords and tenants can end their lease agreements in a more amicable manner.

The Underlying KWin Improvements In KDE 4.7
Published on 28 May 2011 09:44 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
12 Comments
Now that
the first KDE SC 4.7 beta is available
, Martin Gräßlin, the lead developer of the KWin, has blogged about some of the underlying improvements made to the compositing window manager for KDE during this development cycle. Of course, most Phoronix graphics junkies will already know what's changed based upon previous articles, but here's an overview for those not caught up to speed.
The key improvements that Martin talks about in
this blog post
OpenGL 2.0 / OpenGL ES 2.0 support
. KWin's compositor is now written for GL2 / GLES2 with a programmable pipeline rather than relying upon OpenGL fixed functionality. This results in some performance improvements and
the OpenGL ES support
will allow the compositor to work on many embedded devices. The OpenGL ES 2.0 / EGL support is best off, but it's not yet supported by all graphics drivers. For anyone still (unfortunately) living in an OpenGL 1.x world, the OpenGL 2 / GLSL shaders can be disabled until you buy new hardware. (Contrary to earlier plans of
Kwin using OpenGL 3.x
, this wasn't done for KDE SC 4.7.)
- Various optimizations to the blur effect.
Blocking / suspended compositing
. This allows full-screen multi-media applications and OpenGL games/programs block the KWin compositing to avoid overhead and other problems. VLC and Wine are the projects initially interested in taking advantage of this KDE flag to suspend the compositing while full-screen applications are active. Users can also manually setup their applications to temporarily create the blocking for their desired software.
- A new shadow system.
- Code refactoring from one of the KDE Google Summer of Code (GSoC) developers.
- Support for the graphics system Raster. In particular, for those with the NVIDIA binary driver, the window resizing performance should be much better.

Bloomington's Kaeding Management paid $8.2M for the Duluth Radisson

- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn | Google+
The Radisson Hotel Duluth Harborview fetched $8.2 million in its sale last month to Bloomington investor Carl Kaeding's Kaeding Management.
The Duluth News Tribune reports on the sale price, which wasn't disclosed after New York-based Trinity Hotel Investors said in April that it had sold the 288-room hotel to Kaeding.
Brokers had initially sought as much as $9.5 million for the property, which last sold in 2008 for $5.8 million.
The hotel, which had been damaged in a flood last year, followed up with $3 million in improvements that helped drive up interest in the property.

Risk lessons to be learnt from China
Relevant offers
If you believe bad things happen in threes, China's economy offers plenty of risks to chew on, says Infometrics economist Gareth Kiernan.
The managing director of the economics consultancy told a PwC-hosted seminar in Hamilton that with China's slowing economic growth causing concern, the question was, could it be the next problem economy after the US and Europe?
For that to happen bad loans would have to appear on China's balance sheet and that was not out of the question, he said.
There had been overemphasis on exports by China and over-investment in this sector.
"Demand growth from the rest of the world has weakened and some of those poor decisions could start appearing on bank balance sheets, " Kiernan said.
China's local government was highly indebted, its spending adding 6 per cent to GDP over the past two years. Local government debt was 28 per cent of China's GDP. New Zealand's was estimated to peak at 30-40 per cent, he said.
The reason bad loans were not appearing yet was because China's banks were rolling them over.
"So there is real risk there for bailouts."
The wealth of Chinese households was lower than previously, Kiernan said.
Another threat is what is known as China's "shadow banking sector".
In this sector are non-bank lending institutions, many "pretty dodgy", he said.
There were 62 "investment trusts" within the shadow sector, 10 of them accounting for half of the loans. The shadow sector made up 2.5 per cent of China's financial sector, which may not sound a lot but represented $460 billion of lending, more than twice New Zealand's GDP, he said.
Lending was generally of low quality, with many of the trusts lending to each other and to poor quality property development.
"Defaults by low tier developers and the shadow banking sector would hit the core financial system. So there are a number of risks," Kiernan said.
China's anticipated growth was 8 per cent for each of the next two years, he said.
"But keep an eye on it, if it does fall over it will be a pretty ugly picture."
Another impact on China's economy would be its ageing population.
While projections were based on China's present one-child policy and could change if this was relaxed, by 2070 it was expected that 30 per cent of the population would be over 65 years old. But it would only be 15 to 20 years before the over-65 demographic rose "dramatically".
"A huge lift (in over 65-year-olds) is a real change coming through for the Chinese economy. Savings rates will decline and as the size of the the proportion of this population increases there will be more pressure on the government to introduce a welfare safety net and for other groups as well.
As international credit became constrained, there would be a potentially negative effect on China's property market.
Less credit availability would presumably push up retail interest rates.
"This would not be entirely bad...higher interest rates would bring higher quality investments but could certainly be expected to constrain growth."
Upward pressure on the Chinese yuan would push up exchange rates putting pressure on Chinese exporters, Kiernan said.
One of China biggest advantages, it's pool of very cheap labour would start to be eroded over the medium term and exporting would get tougher, he said.

Lege Artis will have bases in LA and NY and focus on pics budgeted from $1M-$3M with an eye to launching the careers of emerging writers and directors via a "no ego" approach. Producer Tony Mancilla and media entrepreneur Aubin Paul plan to fully finance and produce two to three films annually and will co-finance a further one to three indie features per year, using a range of related investments. Lege says it's opening its doors to "curating projects to the interest of established actors by matching them with appropriate scripts and upcoming filmmakers." An advisory board of independent film experts, which includes Rob Barnum, will help to approve projects and consult on creative decisions. Lege already is developing three debut features: a horror/thriller with producer and adviser Lindsay Lanzillotta; female comedy Fairly Certain with adviser Fred Fuchs; and a coming-of-age drama. Mancilla and Paul will create partnerships with charities to help raise awareness of issues important to the filmmakers. Looking to provide "honest visibility" into the process and initiate viral campaigns, Lege Artis will produce an online film journal, Le Nouveau Cahier, based on French film bible Les Cahiers du Cinéma.

Ask a Ninja
Jack Black teams up with VH1
Called The Department of Acceptable Media, the program is based on a live event that Jack Black, along with Dan Harmon and Rob Schrab, have hosted in Hollywood since 2003. At the live event, five-minute "pilots" by aspiring filmmakers are screened and the audience votes on their favorites. The televised program will work in the same way - viewers will vote online at www.acceptable.tv - for their favorite shorts. The winning "pilots" will get to produce a second episode. The losers will be canceled.
Rocketboom host Congdon signs with ABC
Congdon may be the first "cewebrity" to land a deal with a major network, but she's just one of many to use the internet as a launching pad to wider fame. United Talent Agency's Digital Talent Agency has already signed Hosea "Ze" Frank, host of The Show with Ze Frank, and Kent Nichols, co-creator of the Ask a Ninja video blog.
Hope is Emo, and she's on YouTube
Just because I'm introspective and I walk among the shadows, it doesn't mean that I can't hear you. -- Hope
Crista Flanagan, a writer and performer on MadTV, has teamed up with the fellas behind AskANinja.com for a new Web series called "Hope is Emo" that features Flanagan as Hope, a brooding high school emo chick with plenty of angst and depression to spare, and I'm guessing more than a few albums by The Cure. In the first episode, which you can view after the jump, she tearfully pleads to her listeners to stop destroying words by erasing or deleting them. She's so serious about this, in fact, that she made an urn to hold the chalky remains of words that have been callously wiped from the chalkboards at her school. Well, it's not so much an urn as it is a fondue pot, but you get the idea. Also, and perhaps even more importantly, freshmen and sophomores can't go to prom, and it's a rule people really need to learn to obey. I found it quite humorous, and I'm looking forward to more.

Victor Davis Hanson: Ripples from the Election
NRO contributor Victor Davis Hanson is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and the author, most recently, of The End of Sparta, a novel about ancient freedom.
Now that the election is over, we are starting to see the contours of what lies ahead for the next four years. Here are some likely consequences from the Obama victory.
1. Barack Obama is not very interested in tax reform, deficit reduction, or curbing annual spending. He believes in big government, and the bigger the better. His tenure is not so much a repudiation of Reaganism as it is of Clintonism, and the whole notion of keeping the annual growth of federal spending at or below 2 percent, balancing the budget, and declaring the era of big government over. Going off the cliff would give Obama the extra revenues from across-the-board tax hikes on the 53 percent that can fund further expansions for the 47 percent in federalized health care, food stamps, unemployment, and disability insurance and in block grants to bankrupt cities, states, and pension funds. Gorging the beast always demands more revenue; and more revenue will always come from those who must "pay their fair share." That is also a good thing in itself given the innately unfair compensation of the marketplace, which must be rectified by an intelligent, always-growing government, run by humane technocrats rather than grasping Wall Street speculators. In other words, why should we expect serious discussions on the deficit? When so many have so much less than so few, we have hardly begun the necessary "redistributive change." That is facilitated, not retarded, by large deficits and the need for much higher taxes on the fat cats who did not build their own wealth.
2. One could make the argument that Barack Obama was the first president since Jimmy Carter to put daylight between Israel and the United States — both rhetorically and materially on issues such as settlements, the Netanyahu government, and disputes with the Palestinians. Yet Obama still received over 60 percent of the Jewish-American vote. That anomaly might suggest a number of things. For all practical purposes, the supposed Israeli lobby is now analogous to the fading Greek lobby — with similarly diminishing clout in foreign policy....

- WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart was on hand for the Maritime Wrestling Expo on Saturday in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Reader Ryan attended the event and noted Hart's response to a query regarding WWE not merchandising classic "Hitman" shades upon his return to the organization:
"During the meet 'n greet with Bret Hart, when I was getting my Bret Hart shades (purchased back in 1996) signed, I told Bret that I was surprised they didn't start making the Hitman shades again when he came back to WWE. In mid-signature, he stopped, looked up (seeming to lament), and said "They were going to, but we couldn't find the people who used to make them." I've not heard a reason for this reported anywhere before, as it seemed a no-brainer to sell an incredible amount of these cheap-to-produce items… but assumed much like his lack of return to the pink-and-black tights, that he was letting go of another piece of The Hitman's past. Sounds like he was an active participant in the search for the old producers, and was disappointed that they couldn't be brought back."

Transition Therapeutics (NASDAQ:TTHI; TSX:TTH) has presented positive results at the Clinical Trials in Alzheimer's Disease conference from a thorough QT (tQT) study in which no QT effects were observed at supra-therapeutic single doses of its neuropsychiatric drug candidate, ELND005.
The QT interval represents the amount of time the heart's electrical system takes to repolarize, or recharge, after each beat. As prolongation of the QT interval may increase the risk for cardiac arrhythmias, the FDA requires a tQT study for most new drugs in development. A tQT study is a specialized clinical trial designed to assess whether an investigational medication has the potential to prolong the QT interval.
From a safety perspective, drugs that have no QT prolongation effects are particularly desirable for administration to an elderly Alzheimer's disease (AD) population. The use of some anti-psychotics and anti-depressants may increase the risk of QT prolongation, arrhythmias, and sudden death in AD patients.
Single doses, 2000 mg and 7000 mg of ELND005, appeared to be safe and well tolerated by healthy subjects in the study. These ELND005 doses did not have any clinically relevant effects on electrocardiogram parameters and the study represents a clearly negative tQT study.
ELND005 exposures in the latest study were five-fold higher than the loading dose of 1000 mg twice daily in Transition's current agitation and aggression study in AD.]]>
Leerink Partners and William Blair have initiated coverage of Sientra (NASDAQ:SIEN) at "outperform" with Stifel opting for a "buy" recommendation.
Sientra is a medical aesthetics company focused on selling differentiated, highly cohesive silicone implants used in breast augmentation and reconstruction procedures.
Analyst Richard Newitter at Leerink set a $22 price target on the stock, which closed at $17.64 on Friday.
"Sientra looks set to deliver 20% sales CAGR through 2017 (at least), faster than many small-cap peers, as the company continues to drive market share gains," he added.
Mr. Newitter said senior management has extensive aesthetics industry experience, which, along with a rapidly expanding sales force, "should continue to drive increased awareness and use of Sientra's high-strength cohesive (HSC/HSC+) gel & TRUE Texture implants."
Analyst Ben Andrew at William Blair said Sientra has taken a 7% market share from its two competitors – Allergan and J&J – since 2012 in the $600-million breast products market in the U.S. Sientra sells its products only to board-certified plastic surgeons, a practice that is well received by the users, Mr. Andrew said, adding that the products also feature an industry-leading five-year capsular contracture warranty and product replacement program.
At Stifel, analyst Jonathan Block said his longer-term estimates reflect Sientra capturing 11% unit share in 2017, but "diligence suggests share could approach the mid-teens, leaving room for potential upside."
In addition, he said that over time, Sientra should diversify its product portfolio by leveraging its current sales force and entering the nonsurgical market, or potentially securing the rights to sell its breast product portfolio on a worldwide basis. He set a $23 price target on the stock.]]>
Avivagen (TSX-V:VIV) has released positive preliminary results of independently conducted studies in Vietnam and Korea of the livestock utility of OxC-beta, a fundamentally new natural alternative to the use of antibiotics in livestock feeds.
In swine, Avivagen believes the results of the 500-pig study are indicative of strong commercial utility.
The inclusion of OxC-beta in feeds at just two-to-four parts-per-million (less than one teaspoon per metric ton of feed) outperformed both the negative control group and those animals fed with 150-to-250 parts-per-million of commonly used antibiotics (chlortetracycline and colistin sulfate).
Observed results in swine included an improvement in "average daily gain" of over 20% when used in starter feed; bettering the "feed conversion ratio" by over 7% in starter, grower & finisher feeds; and a reduction in the rate of diarrhea of up to 50% at each stage of feeding tested.
In poultry, Avivagen believes the results of the study, where birds faced a subclinical disease challenge from the bacteria, C. perfringens, are also commercially relevant.
Inclusion of OxC-beta in broiler poultry feed at the two-to-four parts-per-million level outperformed the negative control group and matched or exceeded the results from the use of 55 parts-per-million of the commonly-used antibiotic bacitracin.
Observed results in poultry included an increase in "mean body weight" of up to 12% (26 days old) relative to infected controls; dose-dependent drops in rates of bacterial colonization, including to zero in one dosing group; and intestinal lesions in the OxC-beta groups significantly better than infected controls.
Avivagen believes these positive results reconfirm the outcomes of earlier Canadian research under livestock production conditions that are directly relevant to farmers across Asia.
"These results indicate that OxC-beta alone supports optimal growth performance and protects against disease challenges," Dr. William Riley, professor of food quality and safety at Jinan University in Guangzhou, China, said in a statement.
Dr. Riley, who assisted with the development of the trial protocols, said OxC-beta seems to be an effective alternative to antimicrobial growth promoting (AGP) agents in livestock rations and a much-needed innovation. "With several Asian countries now joining the European Union in banning AGP use and in reducing the availability of antibiotics in livestock, producers need new solutions," he added.
Cameron Groome, president and CEO, said the company intends to work with the livestock industry, regulators and consumers to help enable OxC-beta to be widely adopted in livestock production.
Cipher Pharmaceuticals (OTCBB:CPHMF; TSX:DND) has been approved for listing and trading on the NASDAQ Global Market, effective at the open on Monday, under the ticker symbol CPHR.
The common shares will continue to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, however, the company's ticker symbol will change to CPH also on Monday.
"Listing on NASDAQ represents an important milestone for Cipher," Shawn O'Brien, president and CEO, said in a statement. "As we execute our strategy, we believe this listing will provide greater access to the U.S. capital markets and a broader platform for future growth," he added.
Cipher's management team is scheduled to ring the NASDAQ opening bell on Dec. 3, 2014.]]>
Tandem Diabetes Care (NASDAQ:TNDM) has entered into a partnership with Tidepool, a non-profit dedicated to improving diabetes therapy management by offering an open source software platform that increases diabetes data accessibility.
The accord will enable users of the Tidepool Platform, which is currently under development, to download and access data from Tandem's t:slim Insulin Pump.
"Tidepool's development efforts align with our philosophy that data empowers people with diabetes and their health care providers to make more informed decisions about their care," Kim Blickenstaff, president and CEO of Tandem, said in a statement.
"The partnership complements our existing t:connect Diabetes Management Application and diasend Clinic offerings, and will further enhance our customers' options for displaying data to manage their therapy with the t:slim Pump," he added.
When the Tidepool platform is available, healthcare providers and people with diabetes will be able to upload therapy data from their t:slim Insulin Pumps at home or in clinics using Tidepool's device uploader.
Tidepool's first application in development, Blip, is designed to display data from multiple devices, including the t:slim Pump, blood glucose meters, and continuous glucose monitors.]]>
Amarantus Bioscience Holdings (OTCQB:AMBS) has completed enrollment in the expanded LP-002 study of the Lymphocyte Proliferation (LymPro Test) blood diagnostic for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The test assesses LymPro's predictive value in mild, moderate and severe AD vs. healthy controls.
Amarantus expects to announce the full results of its in-depth analysis of the full mild-to-severe AD cohort of 140 subjects (initial 72 patients + 68 patient extension) by the end of this year, and make a final determination on which assay conditions (Version 1 vs. Version 2) it will use to support its product launch.
In October 2014, Amarantus announced positive data from its 72-subject initial clinical performance study for diagnosing AD, demonstrating the LymPro Test achieved highly statistically significant results of both Version 1 and Version 2 in correctly distinguishing patients with moderate-to-severe AD from healthy controls.
As a result, the company extended the LP-002 study to include additional patients diagnosed with early-stage AD. The expanded 68-subject study includes 34 patients with mild-to-severe AD and 34 patients from a healthy control group.
"The completion of enrollment in the expanded study to include the predictive value of LymPro in early-stage diagnosis represents an important milestone for the company, and brings us one step closer to our initial goal of providing an accurate and reliable diagnostic blood test for Alzheimer's disease to the pharmaceutical research community, and ultimately commercial use," Gerald Commissiong, president and CEO, said in a statement.
"We look forward to reporting data from this study before the end of the year and believe the in-depth analysis of LymPro in mild-to-severe Alzheimer's will be invaluable to the medical community, patients and their families in diagnosing the early stages of this debilitating and previously very difficult to diagnose disease," he added.
Mr. Commissiong said Amarantus anticipates making LymPro available for the Investigational Use Only market, with a primary target of pharmaceutical clinical trials, market before the end of 2014.]]>
Transition Therapeutics (NASDAQ:TTHI; TSX:TTH) has announced encouraging results of a clinical study of neuropsychiatric drug candidate, ELND005, in young adults with Down syndrome.
Transition's wholly owned subsidiary, Transition Therapeutics Ireland (TTIL), completed this first study in Down syndrome subjects without dementia to allow optimal dose selection for future larger studies.
The study enrolled 23 Down syndrome subjects in three study arms over a four-week treatment period. At the doses evaluated, ELND005 was determined to have an acceptable safety and tolerability profile and there were no serious adverse events reported in the study.
Two ELND005 doses achieved the plasma levels expected in pharmacokinetic modeling and will inform the selection of a higher dose in a future clinical study.
An exploratory endpoint of the study was the effect of ELND005 on behavior using the Cumming's Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) which assesses the severity of 12 neuropsychiatric symptoms. Subjects enrolled in the study had no major affective disorder, but were allowed to be on stable doses of psychotropic drugs.
The most common neuropsychiatric symptoms at baseline in the study were agitation and aggression, followed by aberrant motor behavior, disinhibition and irritability.
Of the 15 subjects who had neuropsychiatric symptoms at baseline, numerical improvements (decreased NPI-total score) were observed at four weeks as follows: in 1-of-3 placebo subjects, in 0-of-4 subjects receiving 250 mg of ELND005 once daily, and in 7-of-8 subjects receiving 250 mg of ELND005 twice daily.
"Although in small numbers of study subjects, we continue to be encouraged by the consistent trend of improvement in neuropsychiatric measures seen in the earlier Bipolar study and now in the Down syndrome study," chairman and CEO, Dr. Tony Cruz, said in a statement.
The safety and pharmacokinetic data in this study supports the escalation of ELND005 to a dose higher than 250 mg twice daily to evaluate both neuropsychiatric/behavioral and cognitive outcomes in a larger trial in young adults with Down syndrome, he added.
"TTIL will be engaging our Down syndrome experts and investigators to set a course for future clinical development with ELND005 in Down syndrome," Dr. Cruz said.]]>
Vital Therapies (NASDAQ:VTL) has appointed John Dunn as general counsel, reporting to Terry Winters, CEO and co-chairman.
Mr. Dunn joins the company with over 30 years of corporate and legal experience. Most recently, Mr. Dunn provided legal and corporate development advisory services to technology and life sciences companies. From 2004 to 2012, he was EVP, new ventures with Biogen Idec.
"I'm pleased to have a seasoned executive and legal professional like John join the Vital Therapies management team," Dr. Winters, said in a statement.
"As we look to prepare the company for the future, including potential product commercialization, John's longstanding and diverse experience with successful life sciences companies, and his expertise in issues surrounding biologics in particular, will be invaluable," he added.]]>
Highline Research Advisors has initiated coverage of Mast Therapeutics (NASDAQ:MSTX) with a "buy" rating and price target of $3. The stock closed at 48 cents on Tuesday.
Mast is a development-stage, small cap biotech developing a novel poloxamer (MST-188) in acute ischemic conditions.
Analyst Michael Higgins writes that Mast's lead program (EPIC) is a Phase 3 study with results expected around the end of 2015. MST-188 is being tested in 388 sickle cell disease (SCD) patients, presenting at ERs during extremely painful vaso-occlusive (VOC) events.
EPIC began enrolling at 40 U.S. sites at the start of 2013, with up to 30 sites outside the U.S. coming on board a year ago.
Mast has received orphan drug designation in the U.S. and Europe in SCD, one of the most common genetic diseases, which primarily affects those of African ancestry.
"Our price target only reflects the VOC opportunity," Mr. Higgins said. "Should any of the Phase 2's in acute limb ischemia, acute heart failure or shock succeed, we believe today's comps would push Mast shares significantly higher," he added.]]>
Cynapsus Therapeutics (OTCQX:CYNAF; TSX-V:CTH) has released positive top-line results from its CTH-105 Phase 2 clinical trial of APL-130277 for the management of OFF motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), which leave patients rigid and unable to move and communicate.
Out of 16 patients treated with APL-130277, a fast-acting, sublingual, thin filmstrip formulation of apomorphine, 14 converted from OFF to ON, suggesting that APL-130277 may effectively manage OFF episodes in patients with PD.
Preliminary data show that several subjects converted to ON with the 10 mg low dose, and 14 of 16 subjects converted ON with all available doses (i.e. 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 mg). Clinically meaningful improvement in motor control occurred in as early as 10 minutes after administration of APL-130277 and lasted longer than 90 minutes. APL-130277 treatment was safe and well tolerated, with no local irritation, no postural hypotension and a low number of nausea events.
The purpose of the CTH-105 study was to better understand the APL-130277 dose range that produced efficacy as measured by the change in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) part III, a scale used by neurologists to measure the severity of Parkinson's disease OFF and motor symptoms, compared with baseline.
In a statement, Dr. Albert Agro, CMO of Cynapsus, said APL-130277 treatment was associated with a 45% improvement in motor function based on the change in UPDRS part III from baseline.
The mean dose needed to terminate the OFF episode was 18.4 mg. In addition, those patients achieving a response at higher doses appeared to adapt to the treatment, as seen by the lack of nausea at higher doses.
Based on the findings of this study, Cynapsus is planning to conduct pivotal studies of longer duration and with larger patient numbers to confirm these results. These pivotal studies are expected to form the registration package necessary for a 505(b)(2) NDA, with a planned submission in 2016.
Anthony Giovinazzo, president and CEO, said the "CTH-105 trial results lead us to maintain that APL-130277 may be able to serve the majority of Parkinson's patients seeking to restore movement rapidly, on demand, with an easy to retrieve and to administer form of apomorphine, the only approved and most efficacious drug for this purpose."
Dr. Todd Sherer, CEO of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, which provided $500,000 in funding for this study, said a rapid and reliable therapy that can address OFF episodes would be a major advancement in treatment.
"These results suggest that APL-130277 could provide patients with improved quality of life, and as supporters of this program from its early days, we look forward to continued success in Phase 3 trials," he added.]]>

Legendary actor Paul Newman dies at age 83
WESTPORT, Conn. (AP) _ Paul Newman, the Academy-Award winning superstar who personified cool as an activist, race car driver, popcorn impresario and the anti-hero of such films as "Hud," ''Cool Hand Luke" and "The Color of Money," has died. He was 83.
Newman died Friday after a long battle with cancer at his farmhouse near Westport, publicist Jeff Sanderson said. He was surrounded by his family and close friends. In May, Newman had dropped plans to direct a fall production of "Of Mice and Men," citing unspecified health issues. He got his start in theater and on television during the 1950s, and went on to become one of the world's most enduring and popular film stars, a legend held in awe by his peers. He was nominated for Oscars 10 times, winning one regular award and two honorary ones, and had major roles in more than 50 motion pictures, including "Exodus," ''Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," ''The Verdict," ''The Sting" and "Absence of Malice." Newman worked with some of the greatest directors of the past half century, from Alfred Hitchcock and John Huston to Robert Altman, Martin Scorsese and the Coen brothers. His co-stars included Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Bacall, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and, most famously, Robert Redford, his sidekick in "Butch Cassidy" and "The Sting." He sometimes teamed with his wife and fellow Oscar winner, Joanne Woodward, with whom he had one of Hollywood's rare long-term marriages. "I have steak at home, why go out for hamburger?" Newman told Playboy magazine when asked if he was tempted to stray. They wed in 1958, around the same time they both appeared in "The Long Hot Summer," and Newman directed her in several films, including "Rachel, Rachel" and "The Glass Menagerie." With his strong, classically handsome face and piercing blue eyes, Newman was a heartthrob just as likely to play against his looks, becoming a favorite with critics for his convincing portrayals of rebels, tough guys and losers. "I was always a character actor," he once said. "I just looked like Little Red Riding Hood." Newman had a soft spot for underdogs in real life, giving tens of millions to charities through his food company and setting up camps for severely ill children. Passionately opposed to the Vietnam War, and in favor of civil rights, he was so famously liberal that he ended up on President Nixon's "enemies list," one of the actor's proudest achievements, he liked to say. A screen legend by his mid-40s, he waited a long time for his first competitive Oscar, winning in 1987 for "The Color of Money," a reprise of the role of pool shark "Fast" Eddie Felson, whom Newman portrayed in the 1961 film "The Hustler." Newman delivered a magnetic performance in "The Hustler," playing a smooth-talking, whiskey-chugging pool shark who takes on Minnesota Fats — played by Jackie Gleason — and becomes entangled with a gambler played by George C. Scott. In the sequel — directed by Scorsese — "Fast Eddie" is no longer the high-stakes hustler he once was, but rather an aging liquor salesman who takes a young pool player (Cruise) under his wing before making a comeback. He won an honorary Oscar in 1986 "in recognition of his many and memorable compelling screen performances and for his personal integrity and dedication to his craft." In 1994, he won a third Oscar, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, for his charitable work. His most recent academy nod was a supporting actor nomination for the 2002 film "Road to Perdition." One of Newman's nominations was as a producer; the other nine were in acting categories. (Jack Nicholson holds the record among actors for Oscar nominations, with 12; actress Meryl Streep has had 14.) As he passed his 80th birthday, he remained in demand, winning an Emmy and a Golden Globe for the 2005 HBO drama "Empire Falls" and providing the voice of a crusty 1951 car in the 2006 Disney-Pixar hit, "Cars." But in May 2007, he told ABC's "Good Morning America" he had given up acting, though he intended to remain active in charity projects. "I'm not able to work anymore as an actor at the level I would want to," he said. "You start to lose your memory, your confidence, your invention. So that's pretty much a closed book for me." He received his first Oscar nomination for playing a bitter, alcoholic former star athlete in the 1958 film "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." Elizabeth Taylor played his unhappy wife and Burl Ives his wealthy, domineering father in Tennessee Williams' harrowing drama, which was given an upbeat ending for the screen. In "Cool Hand Luke," he was nominated for his gritty role as a rebellious inmate in a brutal Southern prison. The movie was one of the biggest hits of 1967 and included a tagline, delivered one time by Newman and one time by prison warden Strother Martin, that helped define the generation gap, "What we've got here is (a) failure to communicate." Newman's hair was graying, but he was as gourgeous as ever and on the verge of his greatest popular success. In 1969, Newman teamed with Redford for "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," a comic Western about two outlaws running out of time. Newman paired with Redford again in 1973 in "The Sting," a comedy about two Depression-era con men. Both were multiple Oscar winners and huge hits, irreverent, unforgettable pairings of two of the best-looking actors of their time. Newman also turned to producing and directing. Sign the guestbook

GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- Greenburgh police arrested Marlon Murray, a 33-year-old town resident, on Tuesday, Aug. 5, when 28 pounds of marijuana were discovered after an investigation.
Police said a search warrant was executed by the Greenburgh Police Department Drug and Alcohol Task Force and the Town of Greenburgh Police Department Street Crime Unit, relevant to an investigation into the distribution of marijuana in the Fairview section of this township.
Information was developed that a large quantity of marijuana would be shipped to an address via United Parcel Service during the afternoon of Aug. 5, according to police.
Police said the delivery was made to a residence on Maryton Road with the package left on the front stoop.
Police said Murray was then observed pulling into the driveway of the residence and exiting his vehicle. He then took possession of the package and placed it in the trunk of his car, according to police.
Police officers moved in and detained the suspect.
A search of the package confirmed the presence of marijuana. Police officers placed Murray under arrest without incident.
Murray was charged with one count of criminal possession of marijuana 1st degree, a class C felony.
He was arraigned in Greenburgh Town Court before Justice Delores Breathwaite, and held at the Westchester County jail on $20,000 bail.
Murray is due to appear in town court on Friday, Aug. 8, at 9:30 a.m.

Who Gets the Call When Your Analytics Process Crashes?
I recently had a meeting with one of the largest companies in the world, where we discussed concerns about ongoing maintenance and, more importantly, ongoing repair required for analytics processes. The conversation helped solidify in my mind a major disconnect that often occurs when organizations deploy an analytics process into a production setting. Let's walk through that disconnect here.[read more]
Can Fossil Analysis Software Help Us Plan Curriculum?
Paleontologists use (free) software (known as PAST) for their statistical analysis. I bumped into it via key-word web-search to support academic planning I was doing. I offloaded it, took a close look, and I discovered I could use a specific menu within it (hierarchical analysis) to help reconceptualize curriculum at my design college.[read more]
A Quick Guide to Structured and Unstructured Data
Big data has opened doors never before considered by many businesses. The idea of utilizing unstructured data for analysis has in the past been far too expensive for most companies to consider. Thanks to technologies such as Hadoop, unstructured data analysis is becoming more common in the business world.[read more]
When Ideology Reigns Over Data
Increasingly, the mantra of "let the data speak for themselves" is falling by the wayside. There are dangers to reputations, companies and global economies when researchers and/or statisticians either see what they want to see—despite the data, or worse, gently massage data to get "the right results."[read more]

With the market for quantitative candidates continuing to gain momentum, Burtch Works spoke with Jennifer Priestley, Professor of Statistics and Data Science at Kennesaw State University - and friend of Burtch Works - about the job market for statistics majors, the beginnings of her MS in Applied Statistics program, and her thoughts on SAS vs. R.[read more]
SAS vs. R: The Deeper Dive
Last month, I conducted a quick "flash survey" of my network and asked: Which do you prefer to use, R or SAS? I posted the initial results on my blog a few weeks ago, and as promised during the webinar for our Data Scientist Salary Study, we've finished up our deeper dive analysis of the data from over 1,000 respondents.[read more]

The Great Debate: SAS vs. R
Despite hearing more about R from clients and candidates than ever before, determining whether R was actually more popular than SAS proved difficult. A quick Google search for "R vs. SAS" returns more than a few pages dedicated to each side, as well as several heated LinkedIn discussions relating to the topic, with no definitive answers.[read more]
Big Data from Small Devices?

Be Wary of the Science of Hiring
While reliance on experience/intuition to hire "the right person" is rife with biases, there's also danger in over-reliance on HR analytics to find and cultivate the ultimate workforce. While HR analytics seems to have room to run, there's still the outstanding question of whether "the numbers" matter at all in hiring the right person.[read more]
Statisticians Push Back Against the "End of Theory" Problem
For years, some commentators have worried that increasing volumes of data coupled with better and better automated prediction methods would lead to an "end of theory." Dr. Ryan Tibshirani, an Assistant Professor of statistics at Carnegie Mellon University, is trying to fix that.[read more]
Big Data and Your Body
You can now get data output on your own output.

Statistics vs. Data Science vs. BI
As someone who trained as a statistician, I've always struggled with that title. I love the rigor and insight that Statistics brings to data analysis, but let's face it: Statistics — the name — has always had a bit of a branding problem. That's why I'm a fan of the term "data scientist."[read more]
What's the Difference between Desktop BI and Solution BI?
All modern Information Technologies which are capable of improving the enterprise competitiveness fall in the scope of BI, such as ERP, CRM, Reporting tools, Data Computing, Statistical Analysis, Data Mining, OLAP, and ETL, etc. They can be divided into two categories: Desktop BI and Solution BI.[read more]
