Minyan Mailbag: FDA: Process vs. Results
Process dominates all too often in situations where it should not, particularly in the approval of oncology drugs.
I wanted to quickly comment on your excellent piece "Dark Pools and the Tactical Side of Trading"
You make the assertion that the Food and Drug Administration should focus more on results than on process. I think you understand that, in fact, process trumps results. Without control of process, how do we know what is not so? While I'm not wholly convinced by the FDA's actions over the last few years, moving to "results-based" drug approval will not help.
Again, a fantastic piece; I hope that you continue to share your knowledge.
-Minyan Brad
Minyan Brad -
Thanks for the kind words.
You're right that the FDA cannot operate without some process. You can't know if a trial succeeds in demonstrating a benefit outweighing the side effects without applying some biostatistical process.
My point is that process dominates all too often in situations where it should not, particularly in the approval of oncology drugs. If we're talking about a drug that smooths wrinkles, by all means process it within an inch of its life because the benefit can be erased by even small risk.
The specific situation here is a prostate cancer drug whose only crime is a biostatistical picture that is not picture perfect. Nothing so sketchy as retrospective subgroups or anything. It's just a situation where the first Phase III trials of this class of medicine taught us a few things about how they work.
Prospectively defined (though secondary and therefore not assigned alpha) statistical analyses clearly and with excellent internal consistency demonstrate a durable 4.5-month survival advantage with no serious side effects after just three treatment courses. Side effects are fever and chills -- essentially a two-day flu with each of the three injections.
The only available drug with a survival benefit in this indication, Taxotere, has debilitating, durable side effects in exchange for less than two months of extra survival after four months of weekly treatment.
If you apply the same process as used in approving wrinkle creams, this drug will not be approved. That's not appropriate for an oncology drug and would represent putting process ahead of patients. That's why I say that to turn this drug down, it would be placing process ahead of patients.
Warm regards,

You might have heard by now about the new set of costumes that Capcom has in the works for Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop. As revealed in Japanese gaming publications a few weeks back, Frank will be getting a variety of new wears for the Wii title, including a two piece swim suit and an outfit that makes him look like Bionic Commando's Nathan Spencer.
Today, Capcom shared a handful of full resolution shots of those two costumes with the Japanese press. We're not exactly the Japanese press, but we just couldn't resist the opportunity to pass this along to you:
That's Frank West on casual Fridays. He's got the camera, which he can use to take pics of his surroundings, but you know where he'd really like to be aiming the lens.
The Bionic Commando costume is a bit less offensive:
Sadly, Capcom has confirmed that the costume is just for show. You won't be able to swing around through the levels like the real Nathan Spencer from the upcoming PS3 and Xbox 360 title.
As with the Xbox 360 version of Dead Rising, you can switch into these and other costumes by going to the changing room of the zombie-infested mall's apparel shop.

Our eyes were on the Brandywell for the early kick-off and we also monitored all eight games in the Premier and First Divisions this evening.
We've gone minute-by-minute at the Brandywell tonight.
As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts on the games. E-mail email@example.com, tweet @thescore_ie, post a message to our Facebook wall, or leave a comment below.
You may need to refresh the page for goal updates and YouTube videos to display correctly.
Premier Division
- Derry City 0-2 St Patrick's Athletic
- Bray Wanderers 2-1 Bohemians
- Cork City 3-2 Dundalk
- Drogheda United 1-3 Sligo Rovers
- Shamrock Rovers 2-2 UCD
- Shelbourne 2-1 Monaghan United
First Division
- Limerick 1-0 Mervue United
- SD Galway 0-2 Waterford United
Tonight sees all 12 of the Premier Divisions sides plus four more from the second tier involved in action. Our feature game will be the meeting of fifth-placed Derry City and St Patrick's Athletic, who sit five points and one position ahead of them. Kick off is just over 30 minutes away.
The Candystripes come into this one with an understrength squad and will have to do without the likes of Shane McEleney, Rory Patterson, Stewart Greacen and Owen Morrison through injury while Stephen McLaughlin, Mark Farren and Kevin Deery are touch and go. They drew 1-1 with champions Shamrock Rovers in Tallaght last week but haven't recorded a win in the league now for six weeks.
Manager Declan Devine's pre-match thoughts:
We have to pick ourselves up again this week and get to the level of passion and commitment we showed last Friday night.
So far this season we haven't utilised the home support and the advantage that gives us, but we must use it to our adavantage against St Pat's."
Pat's, meanwhile, drew 1-1 with Sligo Rovers at the Showgrounds last Friday and could climb as high as second if results go there way tonight.
Captain Ger O'Brien says:
It's going to be another tough trip this Friday against Derry. I know they're missing a few players, but they've still got a really good squad and it's never an easy place to go to, especially as they are playing really well too.
So we'll have to make sure we play like we have in the past few weeks, because if we do that, I think we have a chance."
RTE pundit and former Saints boss Pat Dolan is clearly a fan of the Liam Buckley era: "They're seducing me, they're delicious," he tells Peter Collins.
Derry City: Doherty, McBride, McCaffrey, McCallion, McNamee, Higgins, Madden, McLaughlin, Molloy, McDaid, Patterson. Subs: Barrm Bonner, Curran, Crossan, Ferry, S McEleney, McGroary.
St Pat's: Clarke, Bermingham, Browne, Kenna, O'Brien, Bolger, Forrester, O'Connor, Rossiter, Russell, Fagan. Subs: Carroll, Daly, Flynn, J Kelly, D Kelly, Meenan, Murphy.
So Patterson and McLaughlin are fit enough to start while Mark Rossiter and Sean O'Connor come in for James Chambers and Jake Kelly.
And we've just kicked off. Looks a decent evening in Derry but there seems to be a considerable breeze.
Rossiter has taken a knock to the knee and won't last five minutes here. He's is helped off as Darren Meenan prepares to take his place. Derry waste a promising free-kick, meanwhile.
Meenan is on and Chris Forrester has Pats' first shot on target after being put through by Christy Fagan. The strike is fairly central, however, and Ger Doherty pulls off a routine save.
The Dubliners are getting some joy down both flanks and a couple of clearances are needed from Derry's centre-halves when crosses come in.
As I write that, McDaid so nearly finds the top corner down the opposite end but is kept out brilliantly by Clarke.
Declan Devine evidently unhappy with how deep his men are sitting. "Press the ball. Get up, get up!" he can be heard shouting from the sideline.
Free-kick for Pat's 25 yards out and O'Connor's attempt at goal is poor. Doherty collects.
Higgins and Russell come together in the Derry box after Forrester looks to thread a pass through to his team-mate but it's never a penalty and the referee rightly plays on.
Derry bring players up for a free-kick and Higgins whips it in with pace. An attacking player gets the slightest of nods onto the delivery but can only send it a couple of yards wide of Clarke's post. Decent chance though.
It's gone 7.45, which means five more of the eight matches have started. Five minutes remain here.
Productive run by Russell, who gets down the left and is tracked by McBride. He wins his team a corner, but it amounts to nothing.
RTE's cameras pick out Mark Rossiter exiting on crutches. Bad night for the former Bohemians man.
GOAL! Derry City 0-1 St Pat's (Darren Meenan)
Disastrous time for the Candystripes to concede as right on the 45-minute mark, the substitute takes a gamble on a deep cross from O'Brien to the back post and steers his header beyond Doherty and into the net.
Half-time: Derry City 0-1 St Pat's

GOALS! Cork City 1-1 Dundalk (Davin O'Neill and Michael Rafter)
Two goals early on at Turner's Cross – O'Neill puts the Rebels ahead before Rafter level it up with less than eight minutes played.
GOAL! Drogheda United 0-1 Sligo Rovers (Gavin Peers)
The Bit O'Red defender heads home after a Jason McGuinness effort is initially kept out.
GOALS! Cork City 2-2 Dundalk (Gary Shanahan and Davin O'Neill)
Incredibly, there have been two more in as many minutes.
Second half starts in Derry and if the hosts don't improve on their showing so far, they're likely to fall further behind.
GOAL! Bray Wanderers 1-0 Bohemians (Jason Byrne)
One of the league's legendary hitmen finds the target against his former team at the Carlisle Grounds.
GOAL! Shamrock Rovers 1-0 UCD (Billy Dennehy)
The Hoops winger puts them a goal ahead from a free-kick.
What a chance for the Saints to double their lead. Fagan finds himself with acres of space to run into and just Doherty to beat. The Derry keeper seems to show the former Manchester United youth the whole of the left side of the goal.
Fagan's strike is in that direction but far too close to Doherty who gets down to smother. The current goalkeeper of the year then keeps out a shot from the edge of the box moments later.
McNamee and McCallion have both been withdrawn for Shane McEleney and Brian McGroary as Devine hopes to shake things up.
GOAL! Bray 1-1 Bohemians (Dinny Corcoran)
The Gypsies are level as Keith Ward crosses after his corner comes back out and Corcoran heads past Darren Quigley.
GOAL! Drogheda United 0-2 Sligo Rovers (Danny North)
The in-form centre forward directs Ross Gaynor's cross and the league leaders are looking good for another three points.
GOAL! Derry City 0-2 St Pat's (Sean O'Connor)
Former Shamrock Rovers winger O'Connor steps inside onto his left and tries his luck from 20 yards. The ball hops awkwardly off the ground and hits the shins of Doherty before bouncing over the line. You'd expect better from him.
GOAL! Drogheda United 1-2 Sligo Rovers (Declan O'Brien)
Fabio has narrowed the deficit for the home side at Hunk Doreys Park.
Derry produce a rare opportunity to get on the scoresheet – a series of passes sees the ball travel across the 18-yard line and a high cross falls under Clarke, who is put under pressure by McLaughlin. The forward puts his hands on his opponent's shoulders but isn't penalised and the ball fortunately stays out.
Skipper Barry Molloy has been cautioned while Buckley has taken off Christy Fagan for Ian Daly.
GOAL! Shamrock Rovers 2-0 UCD (Daryl Kavanagh)
Super striker from Kavanagh from distance and Rovers are good value for their two-nil lead.
Ryan Curran is the final player to make an entrance for Derry and Pat's goalscorer O'Connor has done his bit for the night and is replaced by Jake Kelly. Eight minutes of normal time left to play.
We're into time added on and Pat's have seen out this second half with relative comfort.
GOAL! Cork City 3-2 Dundalk (Vinny Sullivan)
Sullivan's header beats McNulty as the Leesiders go ahead for the second time tonight.
Full-time: Derry City 0-2 St Pat's
GOAL! Shelbourne 0-1 Monaghan United (Willie McDonagh)
Could be a big goal for the Rod Squad if they can hold out after McDonagh puts them in the lead from a penalty.
GOAL! Shamrock Rovers 2-1 UCD (Graham Rusk)
The Students are only a goal behind thanks to Rusk, who dispatches his spot-kick past Oscar Jansson.
GOAL! Shelbourne 1-1 Monaghan United (Paddy Kavanagh)
Obviously spoke too soon. Shels are back level and it's Kavanagh on the hour-mark.
GOAL! Bray Wanderers 2-1 Bohemians (Danny O'Connor)
The Seagulls take the lead with a half hour remaining.
GOAL! Drogheda 1-3 Sligo Rovers (Danny North)
Second of the night for North with 10 minutes left on the clock.
Full-time: Cork City 3-2 Dundalk
Full-time: Drogheda United 1-3 Sligo Rovers
Full-time: Bray Wanderers 2-1 Bohemians
GOAL & Full-time: Shamrock Rovers 2-2 UCD (Paul O'Conor)
Rovers have slipped up big time by letting go of that lead to draw at home.
GOAL & Full-time: Shelbourne 2-1 Monaghan United (Dave Cassidy)
The home team clinch a last minute goal at Tolka to deny the league's basement club.
That's the games done and dusted but make sure to pop back shortly for a round-up of all tonight's thrills and spills.

Opie and Jim, will officially carry on without Anthony.
News broke late last week via Twitter that Gregg "Opie" Hughes and comedian Jim Norton have renewed contracts to continue their weekday morning show on SiriusXM.
When longtime friend/co-host Anthony Cumia was fired from the show this summer, the future of the show was left uncertain, would Hughes walk at the end of his contract this fall and re-team with Cumia somewhere else, or was it officially the end of an era?
The signing of this new contract pretty much solidifies that the separation between the radio partners of nearly 20 years is official. Opie will continue with Norton and Cumia's web show/podcast is fully operational (like the death star) at anthonycumia.com.
Details of the duo's new deal with SiriusXM are not fully public, but its been implied there's a modest raise for both DJs with Norton not yet making "Anthony Cumia Money." Hughes stated that he and Norton's show will air Monday-Thursday, 7-10:30 am, and occasionally on Fridays. Ron Bennington from the Ron & Fez Show which moved off O&A's channel a few months back, will host a show on Fridays when they are not on the air.
We have re-signed not resigned from @SIRIUSXM

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is in Kenya after a three-day visit in Lagos, Nigeria.
Zuckerberg is expected to meet tech entrepreneurs, developers and talk to stake holders in the ICT industry. But before that, his first stop was at the popular fish joint Mama Oliech on Marcus Garvey road.
His off-road itinerary, which has been kept under wraps, is in line with his program in Nigeria where he was seen jogging across the Ikoyi Bridge and walking in the streets of Lagos.
"I had lunch in Nairobi with Joseph Mucheru, the Kenyan Cabinet Secretary of Information and Communications. We talked about internet access and his ambitious plans for connecting everyone in Kenya," posted Zuckerberg on his FB page.
"We ate at MAMA Oliech Restaurant. — a local place everyone recommended. One of my favorite parts of traveling to a new country is trying the food. I enjoyed ugali and a whole fried tilapia for the first time and loved them both!"

Leader Amongst DUI Lawyers! I teach other DUI lawyers on how to defend DUI cases. Who do you want working on your case? The Master or the Student?
LATEST VICTORY: Christopher B. was charged with a 3rd time DUI. His 2 priors were in another state. We filed a "Motion to Strike the Priors" asserting that the out of state dui's did not meet the California equivalency test. RESULT: His out of state priors were stricken from the record, so instead of facing a 3rd time DUI in California, he is now only facing a 1st time DUI. (This does not predict a similar outcome of your case but is intended to show the fruits of my hard work) Only a dui lawyer knowing the dui facts about drunk driving defenses could get a result like this.
Another One: Daniel S. was charge with having a .20 BAC DUI and crashing his car. RESULT: We beat the DMV hearing and saved his license and his job. Last update 8/18/14: We got the case dismissed in court! All this by a dui lawyer working the dui facts and beating the drunk driving myths.
One More: Michael T. is a truck driver and had lost the DMV hearing while being represented by another attorney. This meant that because of the dui his Commercial Class "A" license was suspended for a year. Michael came to me, an experienced dui lawyer, and I was able to overturn the DMV loss through the court system and ultimately get him back on the road driving his big-rig. The results of a hard working dui lawyer working up the dui facts and dispelling the drunk driving myths.
And One More: Jasmine: was charged with a .09 BAC RESULT: DUI dismissed, she pled no contest to 2 traffic infractions.
Check Out the DUI PODCAST LINK on the Menu Bar!
The first phase in a successful DUI defense case is to challenge the cop's reason for allegedly stopping you. This can be done by contacting a San Bernardino County DUI lawyer.The 4th Amendment to the United States Constitution states that all men shall be free from unreasonable search and seizure. In order for the police to comply with the 4th Amendment they must have probable cause to stop you. Without probable cause the stop is illegal and all evidence obtained cannot be used against you in a court of law This means that all the evidence such as the breath test, blood test, and all field sobriety test cannot be used against you. This is known as the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine. Only a good dui lawyer working the dui facts can beat the bogus drunk driving myths. Examples of where the courts found that the cops did NOT have probable cause to stop you.
But then you ask, How do we fight the stop? In California, we use what is called a Motion to Suppress under Penal Code Section 1538.5. This motion will be heard in court similar to a trial. There will be a judge, prosecutor, myself, you, and the cop. The cop is put on the witness stand to testify as to why he stopped you. Once the prosecutor is done with his initial set of questions, I then get to cross examine the cop and prove that what he thought was a good reason to stop you was not justified under the law.
ANOTHER RECENT SUCCESS STORY!! Hass E. was charged with a 2nd time DUI while he was still on probation for his first DUI. The DA alleged that he had a .28 blood BAC, an accident at over 100 mph, and charged him with a VOP. Before trial the DA wanted Mr. E to do 120 days of county jail, 90 days of a SCRAM braclet, and a $2000 fine. TRIAL: We started trial and after we excluded some evidence through the Motion in Limine process the DA re-evaluated their case. RESULT: DUI dismiss, Mr. E pled to a wet/reckless, NO jail time, NO scram, NO VOP, and a $800 fine. All the results of a hard working dui lawyer who knew the dui facts and the drunk driving myths.
In our Phase Two we focus on obtaining ALL of the documents you are entitle to. In the legal world we use a fancy name and call this "discovery." You are entitled to a substantial amount of documents. Such as, police report, witness statements, lab document, breath results, blood results, and much more. The prosecution will usually give us the police report and breath or blood results without much problem.We then go a level deeper in our request. If you did any kind of breath testing we then request copies of all documents associated with every machine you tested on. This would include, repair invoice, calibration proof, maintenance records, gas records, just to name a few.If we are fighting a blood test case we then request copies of ALL Gas Chromatograms that were performed on your blood. This usually results in us obtaining 60 plus additional pages of documents. Once we have these documents we can have our Nationally Recognized Expert review the documents for any problems in the testing. The procedure is called Gas Chromatography when they test your blood for the presence of alcohol. The process of Gas Chromatography is the process of separating the chemicals in your blood.
As a DUI lawyer work day-in and day-out in the local DUI courtrooms within the Inland Empire. As a DUI lawyer I have made trusting relationships with the judges, Deputy DA's, and the court staff. I am well respected and known in all the Local courthouses, from San Bernardino Central DUI courts, to Pomona DUI courts, from Victorville dui courts to Temecula courts, from Riverside dui courts to Banning dui courts. Not every courtroom in every courthouse handles DUI's. It is important that your dui attorney knows who to talk to and the best approach to handling your dui case. I also represent good folks who need my level of experience and will manage cases in Orange County and Los Angeles County.
In order to properly analyze your case we need a sit down face-to-face meeting which will typically last about an hour. Typical information that I need includes, your name and date of birth, age, height, weight, date of incident, time of incident, which police agency, how many cop cars on scene, how many cops in each car, did you call the DMV for a hearing within 10 days. This is just the background information.
Next we deal with the reason for the stop. My focus then shifts to each fact inch by inch of the dui arrest. We look at whether or not the officer had reasonable suspicion for stopping you for an alleged dui. As I mentioned above, you are protected by the 4th Amendment to the United States Constitution and you have the right not to be stopped unless you have at a minimum violated a traffic code.
WIDMARK FORMULA. Erik Widmark was the original creator of the algorithmic formula which is used today to calculate your blood alcohol concentration. During our office meeting I will show you exactly what your BAC was at the time of driving based on your alcohol consumption. It is very important that we know exactly what you were drinking and when. We will use this and additional information in our computer program to produce a graph of your blood alcohol level.
STANDARDIZED FIELD SOBRIETY TEST. I am Certified in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing. I have taken the same course that many Police, Sheriff, and CHP Officers have taken. However, as an dui attorney who knows the dui facts, I am trained to to execute the test perfectly. I have memorized the exact language of the SFST and well as the validating clues associated with each test.
HORIZONTAL GAZE NYSTAGMUS. This is the eye test. But did you know that most officers don't even know the most basic elements of the test? In order to do the test properly the officer must make 7 passes on each eye. If the officer does the test correctly he will have taken 86 seconds at a minimum to complete the eye test. The Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test is one of 3 test recognized by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as being a "standardize field sobriety test."
How did the SFST come into existence? Back in 1975 the NHTSA gave a research grant to the Southern California Researh Institute which was lead by a Dr. Marcelline Burns. The study was 2 years in length. The purpose of the study was to identify which of the field sobriety test being used across the country had any reliability in determining if a person was over a .10 BAC. However, if you read the actual study one will find that the BAC limit which the officers used as their arrest decision point was .08.
Remember, back then the legal limit was .10. At the conclusion of the study they stated that there were 3 field sobriety test that could be reliable. They were the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus, Walk and Turn, and One Leg Stand. HOWEVER, the NHTSA Manual states that in order for the validating clues taken from the test to be valid, the test must be done EXACTLY as prescribed in the manual. That is found on PAGE 19 of SECTION 8 of the NHTSA Manual.
Back to the HGN, first the officer must give the test according to NHTSA standards and secondly the officer must be able to articulate all 6 of the validating clue. The validating clues must be articulated as "lack of smooth pursuit", "distinct and sustained nystagmus at maximum deviation", and "onset of nystagmus prior to 45 degrees."
LACK OF SMOOTH PURSUIT: The cop can produce a false indication of lack of smooth pursuit if he moves the stimuli ( his finger) across your field of view too fast. If the officer moves his finger at a rate of 1 second for every 30 degrees of angle this could affect the eye's ability to track the finger. http://www.theduianswerbook.com
DISTINCT AND SUSTAINED NYSTAGMUS AT EXTREMES. This 2nd part of the test requires the officer to "hold" his finger out to the far extremes, to the point where no more white is showing out of the corner of your eyes, he must hold it there for 4 seconds, the officer must do this twice on each eye, by the time the officer is done it would have taken the officer 20 plus seconds just to complete this portion of the HGN test. In reality, it takes approximately 1 minute and 26 seconds to complete the entire eye test. http://www.bestcaliforniacriminallawyers.com
David's Success StoryI met David when I was a young 20-something adult and I had bought a brand new airless sprayer from Home Depot. My buddy, Mark, David's dad, was living in an older home and he said, "hey, come test out that sprayer over there, we'll have a bar-b-que and drink some beers." So I took my airless sprayer over there, and we ended up spraying that 1,100 square foot house in one day and it looked brand new. David was only four years old at the time. Almost 30 years later, I get a call from David, and he says, "I need help with a DUI." I have not heard from David in almost 30 years, so it was kind of a surprise to hear from this young man that I last knew as a young child...... David told me that he was arrested for a DUI, and he did not think it looked good. He said that he was blowing off some steam and he had went to the local bar. I called the DMV to schedule an appointment to fight the license suspension, I received the police report about a month later. When I read the report I thought, boy, this does not look good, the cop wrote in the report that David was swerving over the left double yellow line three full times, and he went over the right white line twice before he pulled him over. David was arrested by California Highway Patrol which has a dash camera system, I subpoenaed the dash camera, and upon reviewing the video, there was some huge surprises. The video disclosed that it looked nothing like the police report that the cop wrote. Remember, the cop wrote that David went over the double yellow line three times and over the white line on the right twice. This is what the video disclosed. David stopped at a red light, there's a car behind him, the cop rolls up and he stops, they sit there another 10 seconds. As the light turns green, David proceeds straight. As he proceeds straight, the road dog legs to the right at about 15 degrees, David went straight, and as he got to the yellow line, he adjusted to the right, and continued driving in the middle of the lane. David's wheels maybe got within two to three inches of the yellow line, but it never went over the yellow line three complete times like the officer wrote in his report. As I watched the video, it also disclosed that David did not go over the right white line even once. Based on the video, David drove completely perfect. He did not speed, did not swerve, and he definitely did not go over the lines as the officer described. We held the DMV hearing, and I subpoenaed the officer to appear. When he appeared, he testified, and he said exactly what his report said, he said David went over the line three complete lines, his wheel was all the way over the double yellow line on the left, and that he went over the right white line two complete times. When I showed the officer the video, he stated, "oh, the videos can be wrong sometimes. That's not what I saw that night", I'll give credit to that officer, as the country song goes, "that's my story and I'm sticking to it". Needless to say, I won the DMV and I saved David's license. I did not mention that this was David's third DUI, and his blood alcohol level was 0.17. A loss at the DMV would have required a suspension for a minimum of one year.We went to court on his case, and I filed what's called a motion to suppress under penal code 1538.5. Upon filing the motion, I came to court ready with a laptop, a DVD, and I was able to get a seasoned District Attorney who recognized the problem that the officer would have if he was going to take the stand and testify about what he allegedly saw. The DUI was dismissed, and ultimately, this saved David's job and his license.
Tim's Success Story:
Tim was accused of a 2nd time dui with a breath reading of .11. The CHP believed Tim failed all of the field sobriety test. At a jury trial the expert for the government stated that they believed Tim drank 14 beers. Here is the problem, it took the officers 4 hours to process Tim through the system and NOT once did Tim ask to use the restroom. How does a person drink 14 beers and not have to urinate? I also proved that that breath machine was not working as designed.
Here is what Tim wrote about our law firm:
When I received mu DUI I reached out to another lawyer I knew and he referred me to Patrick Silva based on his experience and reputation in the legal community. I believed I had a case and after reviewing the details Mr. Silva felt strongly in supporting me as well. My case was dismissed after going to trial. It was a very stressful situation for me and Patrick went above my expectations throughout the entire process. I found Mr. Silva to be very ethical, honest, and professional. The trial process was tedious at times and Mr. Silva is extremely confident and knowledgeable which made me very relieved to watch him work on my behalf. The Judge, court room staff, and even the DA all showed great respect for him. To the jury he came across as an advocate for justice. Mr. Silva never made me feel like my case wasn't important. He was very responsive to my calls and kept me informed. I believe many attorneys will take your money, give you some weak advice, and get ready to move onto the next case, but Mr. Silva was extremely thorough and worked on the many details of my case until the very end. I was definitely happy he was on my side watching him work in the court room. I highly recommend Patrick Silva to anyone looking for an attorney and, although I don't plan on ever needing his services again, he would be my first call without hesitation. He's a worker and a fighter and has my respect for what he has done to help me and my family.
Emily's Story: Emily was charged with a first time dui with a .19 BAC allegation. In addition she had just smoked some weed. We were able to SAVE her aspirations of a nursing career. Both dui charges were dismissed with a plea to an alcohol related reckless driving charge. http://www.thebestpersonalinjuryattorneys.com

Minister for Small Business and Assistant Treasurer, the Hon Kelly O'Dwyer MP, announced today that the Coalition Government is delivering one of its key election commitments to extend consumer unfair contract term protections to small businesses.
"Small businesses have often faced the same vulnerabilities as consumers and under this new change will receive protections when offered 'take it or leave it' contracts," Minister O'Dwyer said.
"The Government has worked with crossbenchers and stakeholders to secure the support of this change to enable protections for small businesses throughout Australia.
"These important changes will cover standard form contracts where at least one of the parties employs less than 20 people, and where the upfront price of the contract does not exceed $300,000 or $1 million for contracts longer than 12 months.
"The Government is providing the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) $1.4 million to support businesses to transition to these new protections over a twelve month period.
"As a result of these changes, Australia's two million small businesses will have more time and more resources to invest in their business' success, instead of navigating a confusing maze of standard form contract terms.
"This is a Government that wants to get off the back of small business and ensure small businesses can grow and succeed as they contribute to the economy and create local jobs.
"The Small Business and Unfair Contract Terms Bill will extend unfair contract term protections to small businesses through amendments to the Australian Consumer Law and Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001," Minister O'Dwyer said.

According to Quiter, which gets its hands on the trusted Japanese news magazines early, Famitsu has official confirmation that Camelot Software Planning is underway with sequels to both Mario Tennis and Mario Golf. The site further indicates that pictures of each title are featured in the mag.
Apparently the screenshots look very nice and in the article the Takahashi Bros. at Camelot say they are adding more to Mario Tennis, making it more than just a cookie cutter sequel. Unfortunately they did not comment on a release date or detail any other gameplay mechanics.
Mario Tennis and Golf on the N64 were great sports titles, and surely we'd all be very excited to see both games release this year. However, we await comment from Nintendo who we assume is publishing them.
Vote in our poll and let us know how you would react to releases of each sports offering this year.

Psst! Want to know one of the great secrets of fiction? Readers don't like to encounter exactly what they expect each time they turn the page. They like to be surprised.
And how does a writer achieve this? Every time you present a new character, describe a setting or develop a plot, create something your readers aren't looking for something that will jar their sensibilities, cause a grin, or make them wonder.
In short, don't let your readers get too comfortable.
Characterization by surprise
You can include an element of surprise in your fiction by creating characters that belie readers' assumptions. For example, Bobbie Ann Mason begins her short story "Shiloh" by describing what would seem to be a typical western Kentucky husband and wife. Trucker Leroy Moffitt is laid up in their trailer from an accident. The audience probably expects Leroy to be undergoing physical rehabilitation and good wife Norma Jean to be performing domestic chores. Instead, Mason throws her readers a curve ball: Leroy is doing needlepoint and Norma Jean is pumping iron.
Why the deliberate role reversal? The writer sends her audience a message: Don't come into my world with preconceived notions. Who wouldn't read on?
But Mason plays fair. By the end of "Shiloh," she provides a reasonable explanation for these character traits. Leroy and Norma Jean are maturing by getting in touch with their opposite sides. Unfortunately, as they grow… hey, don't expect us to give away the entire solution.
Sometimes, thwarting your readers' expectations about a character can serve as a story's major focus. In our recent mystery "Sharper Than a Serpent's Tooth" (Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, June 1999), our professor-protagonist finds himself intrigued by a student who has suddenly stopped attending his class. On one hand, Ruth Accord is pure Eastern Kentucky mountain folk waist-length hair, no makeup, homemade clothing but to our main character's surprise (and that of the reader), she is extremely knowledgeable about world history and literature. What led a woman living in a closed backwoods society (she's even married to a fundamentalist preacher) to open her mind to the diversity of other cultures and religions by starting college? Not till the final scene does the professor or the reader understand her complete personality, something that accounts for her seeming duality.
Setting the scene
You can also use setting to create the unexpected. Since many scenes begin with a short description, you can include details in the scene that at first seem incongruent and bothersome. Just be sure that before the story's end you offer an explanation as to why these details are present.
Ernest Hemingway's "The Killers," for instance, opens with a sparse description of Henry's lunchroom (run by a guy named George). The clock reads 5:20, but we soon discover it's 20 minutes fast. Two men who enter are described as wearing black overcoats, derby hats, silk muffiers and gloves. Not only are they dressed alike, but they're obviously overdressed for a diner.
Why the unexpected details? Why aren't the time, the ownership and the dress right? The abundance of strange details pushes readers beyond mere curiosity into contemplation.
Unexpected details in the setting, then, should not only whet readers' appetites. Collectively, they can actively engage your audience, pushing them further into your story. And if, like Hemingway, you play fair with a reason for their strangeness, your readers will be satisfied.
The plot beckons
The road we don't know intrigues us more than the road we do. Plots that suddenly take a surprising turn lure readers to hop aboard for the ride, but again the journey is ultimately unsatisfying if the writer doesn't offer a reasonable explanation.
John Cheever's "The Swimmer" begins with Ned Merrill, a middle-aged suburbanite, realizing one summer Sunday afternoon that it's time to leave the cocktail party and head home. Instead of taking a car, Ned decides he'll swim home. Not across a lake or down a river, but by a series of 15 swimming pools.
Too many writers use this technique incorrectly, emulating O. Henry at his worst. Suppose Ned Merrill had drowned and Cheever had waited till the last paragraph to inform us his protagonist had never learned to swim? Wouldn't you feel cheated? Wouldn't you wonder about the point of Merrill's marathon swim? Or, suppose that every pool (instead of one) belonged to a woman who had been his mistress. Would 15 lovers in the same subdivision have been believable?
Every twist must be prepared for, be explained and ultimately make sense in the larger context of the story. If you cannot prepare your readers to make the leap to the unexpected or have them believe the leap is possible, you have failed to create a satisfying surprise. In fact, you've probably created something far worse disbelief.
A satisfying conclusion
The key to creating the unexpected in character, setting or plot is that you control reader response. If your readers feel superior to your story, if they feel they can anticipate not only the story's larger direction but also the smaller elements of description, characterization and plot, they won't turn the page. But if you lead characters down a road not usually taken, and explain why it's not often taken, you can expect your readers to come along for the ride.

The "school on the hill" overlooking the Cape Cod Canal is less an educational alternative for students these days than an attraction.
The "school on the hill" overlooking the Cape Cod Canal is less an educational alternative for students these days than an attraction.
UCT maintains an admissions waiting list. Some 50 percent of its graduates head to the likes of UMass Dartmouth, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, New England School of Technology, Wentworth, Florida Tech and Ohio Diesel.
The rest are getting into the licensed trades. Overall placement is 91 percent a year after graduation.
Based on such success, UCT's stock is climbing, even as some towns in the school district object to dramatic increases in the budget for the next school year.
UCT Superintendent Kevin Farr would like more "blocks and brick all going diesel- and solar-powered." He might also like to add more trades shops.
This may come in time after feasibility studies into school expansion, market demand for skilled workers and community pressure all play their roles. In the meantime, UCT is filled to capacity.
The school opened in 1965. It was built for 500 students. There are 650 enrolled. There will be 138 graduates in June. They all passed the MCAS exam; 85 percent passed it their sophomore year.
Getting into UCT is not easy. In some cases, a single point makes a difference on evaluation forms. There are 238 youngsters on the waiting list for the fall after acceptance of 175. Demand outstrips classroom seats and slots in the trade shops.
Each July, UCT sends introductory letters to seventh-graders heading into grade 8 in Sandwich, Bourne, Wareham, Marion and Falmouth.
In December, the school conducts an Open House for eighth graders and their families. The group is shown all shops.
Once students head to UCT, they tend to stay. Only three left this year, says Toni Link, director of the student services department. She says it's getting harder to get in; but it is not impossible.
"Kids who decide to come here want to be here," she says. "They usually want a more technologically comprehensive program than is available in their high school."
Wareham sends the most kids; Marion, the fewest. There are 393 boys at UCT and 240 girls. The Class of 2007 is comprised of 139 students; 87 percent of the student body started as freshmen at the school.
"The word's out," he says. "People know about us. They know what we try to accomplish and what we fulfill. All the middle schools in the district know that kids have to do a good job in eighth grade to get into Upper Cape Tech."
The UCT admissions office utilizes an evaluation form for which the total student score equals 100 points. It involves attendance records, behavior and conduct, the sending school's recommendation and a personal interview worth 30 maximum points.
Students have to discuss their favorite subjects and least favorite topics at school and indicate their willingness to "make the necessary adjustments in your life in order to attend."
The guidance department also wants to know what a prospective student would likely be doing after UCT graduation. At this point, it takes a score of 83-plus to win admission.
The technical programs available are automotive collision repair and automotive technology, carpentry and cosmetology, culinary arts and electrical, pre-engineering/electronics and environmental technology, landscape contracting and marine technology, masonry and plumbing/heating.
The renewable energy department is viewed by the state Education Department as a model for other technical schools in Massachusetts, Farr says.
It could lead to construction of a wind turbine soon and another program for UCT: information technology.
"Some kids have to wait for their first choice," Link says. "They're good kids; they're understanding. Some of the waiting is based on our staffing and availability."
Link says 98 percent of last year's freshmen secured the shop placement of their choice by the end of their first year. But there is spillover. Some kids who wait and hope and wait some more will not get into UCT. What happens to them? The recruiting and encouragement continue.
"It's sad to me in a way with the waiting list," Link says. "So many kids would benefit by coming here. But we don't have an inch of space left for them.
"We do team building, on-site and off the site. It's important for kids to know who they are. There are 180 kids in the shops and lots of competition. We have 15 students in the marine shop, for instance, and 35 waiting to get in. We're taking the top numbers. We're inviting ambitious competitive kids, and we get a good return with the results," he says.


text: Saints Row has always been a series that pushes the boundaries on what an open world can be since debuting on the Xbox 360 in 2006. What started as a player driven gangster's dream has slowly turned into a caricature of most open world games. Since being liquidated, publisher THQ has sold off many of its properties including Saints Row. Developer Volition now releases the series under publisher Deep Silver, but is facing a lot of controversy, criticism, and bugs; the good news is that Saints Row 4 is the best addition to the series yet, but I think it's important to keep in mind that Saints Row 4 was originally DLC for The Third.

Finally!!! Introducing the new 2008 – XB-2002 FasBass.
The best of everything! We combined the aerodynamics of the XB-21 console with the sleek styling of the traditional 2002 console to give you the best of everything. The new console offers more wind protection and better aerodynamics.
In addition, the black-textured instrument panel provides ample space for lots of gauges plus room for an in-dash fish-finder/ GPS. The console pictured actually has nine gauges, including the Stainless Marine racing trim gauge. You may want a Fish-finder/ GPS in the center with a tachometer and other gauges on each side. There are endless possibilities.
Please notice the small, but effective windshield. It is removable in just a few seconds; replaceable in two other sizes, and yet gives more wind protection than you would believe. By the way, its small size and shape also lets the boat go faster while providing more comfort for the driver.
The new rear deck lid is also a low-profile fairing providing aerodynamics for the jack-plate, control cables and hoses, as well as lower parts of the engine cowl. If you will notice, the fairing is further aft with the lid reaching all the way to the transom. This design reduces vacuum behind the transom which means more speed for the boat.
The console and/ or rear lid/ fairing can be retrofitted to any XB-2002.

The occasion includes stage performances, story telling, and bonfires, as well as a special "Solstice Menu" that typically features hot apple cider and other bone-warming beverages. Bring your favorite mug, winter jacket, and blanket, and savor some solstice enchantment.
The celebration is Dec. 21 from 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Parking is limited, so it's wise to arrive early and carpool. No dogs. Bring a flashlight. For more information, click here.

The Norwegian Language
Norwegian is spoken by approximately 5 million people, primarily in Norway, although there are some speakers in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, the U.K., Spain, Canada, and the U.S.A. It is closely related to Swedish and Danish. In Norway, no official standard of spoken Norwegian exists, and there are hundreds of spoken dialects. Generally, the dialects are mutually intelligible. Because of the great number of dialects spoken in Norway, there are variations in pronunciation from place to place to place. In the Pimsleur program, we adhere as closely as possible to the pronunciation of the inhabitants of Oslo, the capital of Norway.

Reconceiving the Family: The Process of Consent in Medical Decisionmaking
Kuczewski, Mark G.
Bibliographic Citation
Hastings Center Report. 1996 Mar-Apr; 26(2): 30-37.
...First, I must critique the traditional doctrine of informed consent and show how it has "hijacked" what questions can be asked about the role of the family. By examining the doctrine's major assumptions and fixing the limits of its application, we can find room for the family in situations where such legalistic thought is inappropriate. Second, I shall explain how several promising "process" models of informed consent better describe the role of the family in medical decisionmaking. Finally, I shall apply these process models to a case and show how they also demand a different role for the physician in the decisionmaking process. Only by exploring the traditional doctrine of informed consent and escaping its individualistic and legalistic assumptions, can we hope to enrich the theoretical picture of the family in the decisionmaking process....

Lowry welcomes Littleton Garda announcement
Deputy Michael Lowry has welcomed confirmation from management of An Garda Síochána that a member of the Garda force is to be stationed in Littleton Garda station.
The Independent TD explained that the Littleton station has been vacant for approximately two months but this situation is set to change with the Garda member taking over the running of the Littleton district and taking up the living quarters in the village.
"I have received confirmation that this move is expected to take place within the next few weeks. Having a garda returned will be a great benefit to the village, will deter crime and will be a huge reassurance to residents and businesses in the area," he said.

15 – 16 – 17 – 18 April 2016
Domaine de Boisbuchet is happy to announce the lighting of its wood-fired Kiln for a weekend open to all.
We are inviting ceramists from all backgrounds to fire their own creations and share a their knowledge and crafts in Boisbuchet's idyllic country estate.
Accommodation and food will be provided at the Domaine.
In September, 2009, a unique type of wood-fired kiln was constructed and lit at the Domaine de Boisbuchet. This kiln uses carbon-neutral waste wood fuel and can simultaneously fire ceramics and melt glass for glassblowing. The design references traditional wood-fired techniques and, at the same time, provides a contemporary sustainable approach to high temperature ceramics and glass production.
Ceramic firing is free for all but participation in keeping the fire alive during the weekend will be appreciated

Stuart Broad was at Lord's to watch his name go onto the Honours Board following the New Zealand Test in which he picked up the Man of the Match award for his 7/44 on the fourth day.
It's the second time as a bowler that Broad has managed to get his name on the Honours Board following his 11/165 against the West Indies in 2012, when he became the first England bowler to take ten wickets in a match since Ian Botham in 1978 against New Zealand.
"Every time you play here at Lord's you want to win the game," Broad told Lord's TV.
"But you also want to make a contribution and get on the famous Honours Board."
Broad speeds to 7/44
Broad's first appearance on the boards actually came as a batsman after he hit 169 against Pakistan back in 2010.
But the 26-year-old's most recent effort could be extra special due to the time in which it took him to do it.
One of the quickest ever?
Set 239 to win, New Zealand went into lunch at 29/6 when Broad had picked up his fifth victim, Black Caps captain Brendon McCullum.
The innings was just 59 minutes old at this point and Broad had bowled only 5.4 overs since opening up from the Nursery end.
"I think it's probably my quickest five-for ever," Broad commented.
"It was amazing how quickly events unraveled really!"
There are three other bowlers who all have a claim on being the fastest, time-wise, to make it onto the Honours Board.
1896 – Tom Richardson
England's Tom Richardson took 6/39 as Australia were bowled out for just 53 at Lord's. The whole innings lasted just 22.3 overs – exactly the same length of time England took to bowl New Zealand out during Broad's 7/44 – and around 75 minutes.
Richardson's fifth wicket was Hugh Trumble, who was the eighth man out when the score was just 45, so he will be fairly close to Broad's time.
1912 – SF Barnes
England's Sidney Barnes took 5/25 as South Africa crumbled to 58 all out in an innings that lasted just 26.1 overs and 85 minutes, according to the magazine Cricket.
Again, like Richardson, Barnes' fifth wicket was the eight to fall with the score at 54.
1909 – Warwick Armstrong
Australia's Warwick Armstrong took 6/35 as England were bowled out for 121. Crucially, like Broad, his fifth wicket was the sixth to fall, when he dismissed George Hirst with the score at 41.
Wisden noted that England looked set to save the game on that morning "but in less than half an hour all hopes of this kind were destroyed."
England had batted for around 20 minutes the previous evening which would suggest that Armstrong's fifth victim occurred in around fifty minutes, however we cannot be certain to which point Wisden's "all hopes of this kind were destroyed" refers.
Was it from the start of play that morning or were there a few overs bowled before the half an hour collapse occured? The final two wickets took 41 minutes to fall, so we can be sure that the half an hour would have included Armstrong's fifth.
One thing we can safely say is that Broad is certainly the quickest to achieve the feat in the modern era, no other player following the first World War, bar Broad, has got close to the three aforementioned.

"Liberal TV is dead on arrival," said an insider advising Mr. Gore and his team. "You just can't do it."
The Gore-led group of investors is about two weeks away from forming an agreement with NBC Universal to acquire Canadian-based cable network Newsworld International for about $70 million, said an insider at Universal Television Networks, the Vivendi unit that currently operates the network.
The proposed news network will be positioned as "a professional news operation reaching an aware, younger, hipper audience," the adviser said, characterizing it as a combination of CNN and MTV. "The station will try to reach a younger market."
That's likely to make it more enticing to advertisers who were wary of plunking down ads on a network aligned with a particular political party.
not grownups yet
"The question is whether TV is the way young people will get their news or whether it will come to them over the Internet, on some form of PDA with just headlines, scores, stock market and breaking news," said Aaron Cohen, exec VP-director of broadcast at Horizon Media. "If you want to talk to young people, that's where you go. They haven't grown up to be news viewers yet."
In order to attract the right kind of audience, Mr. Cohen said the network would "have to have some truly unique personalities, a unique skew on the news, lifestyle stuff."
Newsworld International, created by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in 1994, has 20 million subscribers and 58 employees. Its news programming originates in North America, Asia and Europe. It was sold to USA Networks in 2000, and then to Vivendi Universal, which sells advertising for the channel through its Universal Television Networks sales force, which also handles SciFi, Trio and USA. According to a sales executive there, the majority of advertising on NWI is direct response. "We haven't been aggressively selling it," said the executive. "We're waiting for distribution to pick up." Advertisers include General Motors Corp., Expedia.com, and package-goods companies.
NBC Universal
Last week, General Electric Co., parent of NBC, agreed to buy the entertainment properties of Vivendi Universal. GE will own 80% of the new company, while Vivendi retains 20%. Vivendi's TV properties, which include USA Network, Sci Fi and Trio, will combine with NBC's Bravo, Telemundo, MSNBC and CNBC. NBC Universal, will be the fourth-largest media conglomerate, with revenues of approximately $13 billion, when the deal is finalized in early 2004.
Some observers feel that despite the change in tack, a network led by Mr. Gore will not be able to erect a firewall thick enough to insulate it from his Democratic Party affiliation.
"If there is any transparency to Gore, then it will be identified as a partisan operation, which will alienate advertisers," said the sales executive.
"The problem with being associated as liberal is that they wouldn't be going in a direction that advertisers are really interested in," said Paul Rittenberg, senior VP-advertising and market research, Fox News. "We don't get business for being conservative, we get business because the ratings are good and we believe that we're fair. If you go out and say that you are a liberal network, you are cutting your potential audience and certainly your potential advertising pool, right off the bat."

Having designed her own craft cider brand targeted towards 18 to 25 year-olds from scratch for a competition, university student Dani Kaspar did it just right when it came to creative branding, winning the annual Student Ampersand Award for Creative Excellence.
Held by packaging design agency Cowan, the competition gave communication artist Kapar the platform to play around with creative branding and the space to experiment with design and typography for the cider market.
Going for a social look and choosing a playful name, the Flying Pig brand was designed with an emphasis on its use of organic fruits to target younger markets. The design of the rounded bottle shape, its brightly colored hues and bold graphic typeface give the Flying Pig cider just the right balance between social and playful.
