Taking a firm stand against Florida driving under the influence charges can take many forms, from fighting breathalyzer results to challenging the results of field sobriety tests. A recent incident in the Tampa area reveals that the circumstances of a DUI checkpoint also provide a basis for criminal defense against a conviction for DUI. As most drivers who are out on weekend nights are aware, DUI traffic stops are regularly conducted across the state by the Florida Highway Patrol, sheriff's deputies and local police departments. However, law enforcement must abide by ...

Policy makers with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) have puzzled for years over how to make the roads safer for commercial vehicle traffic and passenger cars alike. Regulations involving weight restrictions, minimum rest breaks, limitations on the use of electronic devices behind the wheel of commercial vehicles, more stringent DWI/DUI enforcement and health screenings are all designed to ensure that the people put in charge of commercial trucks, vans and buses have the training and skill necessary. Among other safety initiatives, the FMCSA has ...

A September traffic fatality in the dark early morning hours on U.S. 441 near a rural intersection north of Ocala marked the most recent fatal pedestrian accident in the region. The 71-year-old victim was struck while in the middle road and pronounced dead on the scene, becoming the 48th fatal car accident victim in Marion County in 2012.

The federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has released final rule changes that should streamline its complaint process for employees. Employees are protected from workplace discrimination by federal law and can pursue a discrimination complaint through the EEOC when they feel their rights have been violated. The EEOC is a federal agency that enforces the country's equal opportunity employment laws. These laws prohibit employers from discriminating against employees or job applicants in hiring, firing, promotion, benefits and other employment decisions. ...

The full economic impact of Hurricane Sandy probably won't be felt for many months or even years. But it is possible to speculate. Time will tell whether these guesses are correct. Public employees who receive overtime will certainly benefit. Law enforcement, sanitation crews, transit workers and others will find themselves working 12-hour shifts for the foreseeable future and being paid accordingly. And workers in the construction industry will probably see an uptick in work as people begin to rebuild. However, other employees may not be so lucky. People in hard-hit ...

With the national election just days away, Pennsylvania employees should know that their employer cannot take action to stop them from voting or frighten them into voting for a candidate of the employer's choice, a prominent labor and employment lawyer said.

Cordes a downtown Pittsburgh labor and employment lawyer who has represented employees for more than 25 years. Moreover, Pennsylvania employers ...

Ireland's mortgage crisis has become significantly worse over the last few months. With 19bn of the bank's business being mortgage debt and the average mortgage being around GBP200,000, it is estimated around 12,500 customers are probably now in mortgage arrears. Ulster Bank, which is owned by Royal Bank of Scotland and also has a subsidiary, First Active, intends to take on 200 new staff to deal with it, of which 150 will be Scotland-based. However, the move has caused controversy. Ulster Bank has an ongoing restructuring programme in place, and intends to continue ...

(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– UC Santa Barbara has reported an important discovery in the interdisciplinary study of split-brain research. The findings uncover dynamic changes in brain coordination patterns between left and right hemispheres. Split-brain research has been conducted for decades, and scientists have long ago shown that language processing is largely located in the left side of the brain. When words appear only in the left visual field –– an area processed by the right side of the brain –– the right brain must transfer that information to the left brain, in ...

MERCED, Calif. — California isn't going to face a superstorm like Hurricane Sandy because the Pacific Ocean is too cold to feed that kind of weather system. But that doesn't mean California won't see extreme weather, say researchers from the University of California, Merced. "We can see very big storms, and there are a couple of issues related to climate change to think about," said Roger Bales, director of the Sierra Nevada Research Institute. "Most of our biggest storms are snow storms, which builds up snowpack in the mountains. The snowpack is a reservoir, storing ...

PASADENA, Calif.—During the early developmental stages of vertebrates—animals that have a backbone and spinal column, including humans—cells undergo extensive rearrangements, and some cells migrate over large distances to populate particular areas and assume novel roles as differentiated cell types. Understanding how and when such cells switch their purpose in an embryo is an important and complex goal for developmental biologists. A recent study, led by researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), provides new clues about this process—at least in the ...

PHILADELPHIA – An international effort led by researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania has resulted in positive phase 3 clinical trial results for a new medicine to treat patients suffering from a rare and deadly cholesterol disorder. Penn researchers report in The Lancet that lomitapide, a first-in-class microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) inhibitor, substantially and stably reduced LDL cholesterol (the "bad" cholesterol) in patients with the orphan disease homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). Lomitapide ...

Belmont, MA— In a column appearing in the current issue of the journal Nature, McLean Hospital biostatistician Nicholas Lange, ScD, cautions against heralding the use of brain imaging scans to diagnose autism and urges greater focus on conducting large, long-term multicenter studies to identify the biological basis of the disorder. "Several studies in the past two years have claimed that brain scans can diagnose autism, but this assertion is deeply flawed," said Lange, an associate professor of Psychiatry and Biostatistics at Harvard Medical School. "To diagnose autism ...

Bariatric surgery, which significantly curtails the amount of food a person can eat, is the most effective treatment against obesity and is being recognized as a potentially valuable tool in the fight against diabetes related to obesity. It is being performed on increasing numbers of people worldwide, including teenagers. Unfortunately, some types of bariatric surgery may also cause bone loss, a cause for concern, particularly when carried out on young people who have not yet reached their peak bone mass, say endocrinologists from Sydney's Garvan Institute of Medical ...

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (MPI CEC) and the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) have found through spectroscopic investigations on a hydrogen-producing enzyme that the environment of the catalytic site acts as an electron reservoir in the enzyme. Thus, it can very efficiently produce hydrogen, which has great potential as a renewable energy source. The research team describes their results in the journal "Angewandte Chemie". Producing hydrogen with enzymes The system analysed constitutes an enzyme that catalyses the formation and ...

Infant mortality has fallen by half, and the number of women who died from complications during pregnancy and childbirth by three-quarters. This is the result of a four-year health care project in one of India's poorest districts. "We're overjoyed that mortality could be reduced with relatively simple means like mobile health care centres. It was successful because pregnant women and new mothers got the opportunity to actively seek care." So says Siw Alehagen who, together with AnnaKarin Johansson, Orvar Finnström and Göran Hermansson – all of Linköping University ...
