ST. TROPEZ, FRANCE, September 16, 2010 (Press-News.org) Fraser Yachts are pleased to announce that six of their yachts will feature at the upcoming 2010 Monaco Yacht Show, which will be taking place at the Port Hercules between the 22nd and 25th of September. The show, which will be open between 10.00am and 18.40pm, will feature more than 100 superyachts, of which around 40% will be making their debut at this prestigious event. More than 50% of the yachts on show will have a length of more than 40m including, M/Y Aquarius, M/Y H2OME, S/Y Ohana and S/Y Hetairos, each of which is currently for sale with Fraser Yachts acting as Central Agents.
At a length of 64.49m (211'07") M/Y Aquarius is the largest of these four yachts and is being offered at price of EUR67,000,000 with Dennis Frederiksen of Fraser Yachts, Monaco, acting as her central agent. Launched in 2007, Aquarius was custom built by Amels Holland B.V. with Terence Disdale taking responsibility for the design of her beautiful interiors and exteriors. Her accommodation includes 9 separate suites and she is able to house 18 overnight guests served by a crew of 18. She has a range of 5250nm, cruises at a speed of 15.6 knots and has a maximum speed of 17.5 knots.
With a length of 44.00m (144'04") M/Y H2OME is certainly not going to be the largest yacht to feature at the show, but she is sure to be one of the most talked about. Built at the MGMI Shipyard and launched earlier this year, she features an uncompromisingly modern design with exteriors by Mario Grasso of Navirex and interiors by Studio A-Lab. Despite having the look and feel of a 'floating villa', H2OME is able to cruise at an impressive 17 knots and has a top speed of 36 knots. Her asking price has been set at EUR14,500,000 and her sale is being handled by Jan Jaap Minnema and Vassilis Fotilas of Fraser Yachts, Monaco.
Sailing enthusiasts meanwhile will be keen to take a look at the 43.41m (142'05") S/Y Ohana. Built at the Perini Navi Shipyard, S/Y Ohana was launched in 2004 as the first in a series of high-performance all-aluminium sailing yachts. In keeping with the Perini Navi brand, S/Y Ohana features a range of luxurious and spacious living areas and she is able to accommodate 10 overnight guests in her 5 elegantly designed cabins. She has a total sail area of 969m2 while her twin-engines allow her a top-speed of 13.5 knots. Her sale is being handled by Dennis Frederiksen of Fraser Yachts, Monaco, and she is being offered at a price of EUR17,800,000.
Of similar size and specification to S/Y Ohana is the 42.85m (140'07") luxury sailing yacht Hetairos. Built by the German shipbuilders Abeking and Rasmussen and launched in 1993, S/Y Hetairos features naval architecture by Bruce King and interiors by Andrew Winch. She is served by a crew of 4-6 professional crew and is able to accommodate 10 overnight guests who can enjoy her spacious external areas, which include both a swimming pool and a Jacuzzi spa. A single MTU main engine that allows her to cruise at a speed of 12 knots complements her 659m2 of total sail area. She is being offered for EUR13,800,000 and her sale is being handled by Jurgen Koch of Fraser Yachts, Spain.

Changing Perceptions of the Role of Full-Time Dads
2010-09-16
The 21st century has seen advances in technology, science, medicine and more. One thing that traditionally hasn't changed, however, is the perception of the father's role in a child's life. Ask most people what a dad does, they may mention things like playing catch, being the family breadwinner, tackling household maintenance projects or mowing the lawn. When the phrase "primary caretaker" arises, few people equate that with a father.
As the Bob Dylan song goes, though, "the times, they are a-changin'." Fathers all around the country are choosing to raise their children ...
Can Doctors Face Retaliation for Protecting Patients?
2010-09-16
Medical professionals often feel they have a reputation to protect, and the best strategy for achieving that goal is adherence to accepted medical standards and treating patients with the respect they deserve. But the recently settled case of a New York bariatric surgeon suggests that sometimes patients' best interests are not the foremost goal, when eliminating a colleague who dissents about medical practices seems more expedient.
Dr. Neelu Pal lost her position at New York University's Medical Center in 2006 after she informed several patients scheduled for weight-loss ...
Your Legal Rights Following a Crane Accident
2010-09-16
On March 15, 2008, a 22-story crane collapsed on East 51st Street in Manhattan, killing seven people. A little over two months later, a second crane collapsed at an Upper East Side construction site, leaving two dead, including the 30-year-old crane operator.
These two crane accidents have been at the center of multiple investigations, civil lawsuits and criminal charges against those believed to be responsible for the catastrophes.
Rigging contractor William Rapetti was one of the individuals facing criminal charges for his role in the East 51st Street collapse. ...
Pennsylvania Court Considers Legal Justification for Drunk Driving
2010-09-16
A recent Pennsylvania appellate court decision involved a rarely implemented defense in a DUI/DAI case. In Commonwealth v. Clouser, the Pennsylvania Superior Court considered whether a driver was justified in fleeing danger in his vehicle even though he was intoxicated. While the trial court had denied the defendant's request to argue justification, the Superior Court held that he should have been allowed to present this defense.
Appellant Michael Allan Clouser was out at a Franklin County tavern in June of 2009 with his girlfriend. Clouser admitted at trial that he ...
Pennsylvania Field Sobriety Testing
2010-09-16
In Pennsylvania, an officer often conducts field sobriety testing prior to asking a driver to submit to a roadside breath test and making an arrest, whether the driver is suspected of intoxication during a traffic stop, sobriety checkpoint or saturation patrol. In October 2008, Pennsylvania began the Checkpoint Strikeforce Initiative, which requires each of the 15 regional state police troops to conduct random sobriety tests of drivers on most weekends. The State Police Commissioner noted that the program contributed to a record number of DUI arrests that year.

The Confrontation Clause: New Meaning for The Twenty-First Century
2010-09-16
Any person accused of a crime in the United States has the right "to be confronted with the witnesses against him." It is one of the fundamental protections of the U.S. Constitution, written into the Confrontation Clause of the Sixth Amendment and guaranteed since the Bill of Rights took effect in 1791. However, our understanding of this right has evolved with time.
Last year in the case of Melendez-Diaz v. Massachusetts, the U.S. Supreme Court considered the protections of the Confrontation Clause with regard to the introduction of forensic evidence in a trial.

Medical Whistleblowers and the Sovereign Immunity Roadblock
The heroic actions of two individuals recently brought the little town of Kermit, Texas, into the limelight. Two nurses at Winkler County Memorial Hospital found themselves in an astonishing situation after reporting suspected ethical violations of a doctor. Not only were they fired but also indicted on felony charges. Both nurses beat the indictments and later settled a civil lawsuit against the hospital, but the unexpected scenario has sparked public debate about laws protecting medical whistleblowers.

Shorter Sentences for Viewing Child Porn
2010-09-16
Worried parents and law enforcement officials are driving an increase in child pornography cases across the U.S. Sentences for viewing child porn range from probation to 20 years in prison, but judges are leaning toward lower sentences.
The Wall Street Journal analyzed four years of data and found a significant reduction in jail time. In 2006, about 20 percent of child porn possession and distribution cases brought sentences that fell below federal guidelines. By 2009, more than 40 percent of sentences brought such sentences, according to the Journal. In the same period, ...
Common Defenses to Workers' Compensation Claims in Pennsylvania
2010-09-16
When a worker is injured on the job, the workers' compensation system is intended to ensure that the worker receives the medical treatment necessary to recover and financial support for the resulting time away from work. However, this compensation is ultimately provided by an insurance company -- and insurance companies generally seek to avoid paying out claims when possible. Accordingly, these companies rely on a number of common, well-established defenses to avoid paying claims.
Workers' compensation claims fall into two categories: accidental-injury claims and occupational-disease ...
