Public use can't be experimental if not for purposes of the patent application
Post by Blog Staff
In a decision last week, the Federal Circuit affirmed a district court's grant of summary judgment of invalidity of a patent and summary judgment to the defendant on the Plaintiff's false advertising claims. The defendant asserted the patent was invalid as obvious and by virtue of a prior public use. The district court held a genuine issue of fact existed regarding whether the public use was experimental, but granted summary judgment of obviousness. The court also granted summary judgment on the false advertising claims.
The Federal Circuit agreed the patent was invalid, but on the grounds of public use. Specifically, the court held there was no genuine issue of material fact that the public use both embodied all the claim limitations and was not for experimental use. While the purpose of the use was ostensibly for purposes of durability testing, the court observed that the results of the "test" (which was performed in 1989) were not available until almost a year after the patent application was filed in 1992. As such, even if the use was for purposes of testing durability, it could not, as a matter of law, be experimental use, because it was not for purposes of the patent application.
The court also affirmed the summary judgment on the Lanham Act false advertising claims, agreeing with the district court there was no evidence the two challenged statements were false.
More detail of Clock Spring, L.P. v. Wrapmaster, Inc. after the jump.
Clock Spring is the owner of a patent relating to repairing damaged high-pressure gas pipes. Clock Spring sued several defendants, including Wrapmaster, for infringement and false advertising under § 43(a) of the Lanham Act, asserting Wrapmaster made false or misleading statements about its goods. Wrapmaster contended the asserted claims were invalid based on obviousness and based on Clock Spring's public use of the patented method more than 1 year prior to the patent's priority date. Specifically, in 1989, Clock Spring demonstrated the claimed method for a group of industry professionals, but the patent application was not on file until 1992. The district court granted summary judgment to Wrapmaster on obviousness and the Lanham Act claims, but held there was a fact issue regarding whether the 1989 demonstration was experimental. Clock Spring appealed.
The Federal Circuit affirmed, but held the patent invalid by virtue of the prior public use rather than obviousness.
Clock Spring argued that not all the limitations of the claims were involved in the demonstration and the use was experimental and therefore not barring. The Federal Circuit had little trouble holding all the claim elements were present in the demonstration. Clock Spring argued that the demonstration lacked three elements: (1) a "cavity" in the pipe; (2) that the "filler material" was used to fill the "cavity"; and (3) that the pipe was not wrapped while the filler material was in an "uncured state." The court addressed the first two missing elements by pointing out there was evidence that there were "pinhole areas of corrosion" in the pipe, which would satisfy the requirement of a "cavity." Further, while it was not explicit that filler was used to fill the pinholes, this would have been obvious given "the whole purpose of the experiment was to demonstrate a method of 'spot repair' of pipelines. We have held that the public use bar applies to obvious variants of the demonstrated public use."
The third element was shown from the duration of the demonstration and reports of attendees to the demonstration. Attendees noted that Clock Spring wrapped the pipes before the filler had cured. Also, the brief duration between applying the filler and wrap (three minutes) provided evidence that the filler had not fully cured. Because Clock Spring had provided no evidence controverting this evidence, there was no genuine dispute that the demonstration embodied all elements of the claims.
Regarding experimental use, the court noted there are 13 factors that can be considered when determining whether a public use is experimental:
(1) the necessity for public testing, (2) the amount of control over the experiment retained by the inventor, (3) the nature of the invention, (4) the length of the test period, (5) whether payment was made, (6) whether there was a secrecy obligation, (7) whether records of the experiment were kept, (8) who conducted the experiment, (9) the degree of commercial exploitation during testing, (10) whether the invention reasonably requires evaluation under actual conditions of use, (11) whether testing was systematically performed, (12) whether the inventor continually monitored the invention during testing, and (13) the nature of contacts made with potential customers.
Here, the inventor did not have control over the public use, and the court observed this factor can be dispositive. The court declined to rest its decision on this ground, however, because it further noted use is "experimental only if it is designed to (1) test claimed features of the invention or (2) to determine whether an invention will work for its intended purpose." Further, this testing must be "for purposes of the filing of a patent application." Here, the public use occured in 1989. The patent application that led to the patent was filed in 1992. However, the pipe that was repaired was not excavated to determine the durability of the claimed method until nearly a year after the application was filed. On this basis, the court held "even if durability were being tested, it was not for purposes of the patent application, and cannot bring the experimental use exception into play." Therefore, there was no issue of material fact regarding the non-experimental nature of the demonstration, and the court therefore affirmed the finding of invalidity on the alternative grounds of public use.
Finally, the court addressed the Lanham Act false advertising claims. In order to prevail on such a claim in the Fifth Circuit, Clock Spring had to prove:
(1) a false or misleading statement of fact about a product; (2) such statement deceived or had the capacity to deceive a substantial segment of potential consumers; (3) the deception is material, in that it is likely to influence the purchasing decision; (4) the product is in interstate commerce; and (5) the plaintiff has been or is likely to be injured as a result of the statement.
The court addressed only the first element, whether a false statement was made. The two allegedly false statements were: (1) "Wrapmaster PermaWrap™ sleeves contain an embedded metallic mesh material that enhances the strength of the sleeve," and (2) "'Diamond Grip' Technology [ensures] that a mechanical locking system exists in addition to the chemical bonding of the Adhesive. It is basically a 'belt and suspender' approach to ensure the permanence of the installation."
Regarding the first statement, Clock Spring offered no evidence of the comparative strength of the sleeve with and without the metallic mesh, and thus there was no evidence in the record that this statement was false. Regarding the second statement, While Clock Spring had presented evidence based on expert testing, Wrapmaster asserted and provided evidence that the design had changed between the date of testing (2004) and the date the statements were made (2007). Clock Spring did not provide rebuttal evidence, and therefore the court reasoned there was no evidence that the statements about the 2007 product were false, and as such there was no issue of fact that would preclude summary judgment. Accordingly, the court affirmed the district court's decision on the 43(a) claim.

The survey of employers done by the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that 88,000 private sector jobs were added in March. Other than 12,000 Postal workers let go, no government job cuts showed up in the report. This is bad news, the economy took a serious hit without the sequester having any measurable effect so far. The only bright spot is that the January and February numbers were revised upward by 29,000 and 32,000 respectively to 148,000 and 268,000. Some blame the end of the 2% FICA tax holiday, but retail sales are actually up, even as 24,000 retail jobs were cut.
The corporate media claims to have White House sources telling them that Obama will propose cuts to Social Security and Medicare in his budget when it goes to Congress. On Medicare the 'cuts' involve making wealthy recipients pay higher premiums. Hmmm, how is that a cut? It's not really, but it sure makes a good headline. For Social Security it appears that he will suggest reforms to the CPI used to determine benefits, which is something that actually needs to be done. If Obama goes with the 'chained CPI' that was proposed earlier, that would be bad.
Likely what is really going on here is that Obama is baiting the Republicans yet again. They constantly scream for cuts, but the bulk of Republican office holders (except for the crazy tea baggers) wouldn't do it in a million years. If Republicans refuse, this opens them up for being primaried by the tea baggers. Democrats can run against the cuts and remind older voters where these programs came from to begin with.
News from 'The Currency War' (tm), that's trademark rightwing blowhards who are sure the USD is near collapse. The Bank of Japan has reversed a decades old policy and is going to start printing Yen in a big way with the intention of doubling their money supply. They're going to buy up available bonds in the same way that the Federal Reserve has been doing with the USD denominated Treasury and mortgage bonds. The official reason is to move interest rates lower and hit a target goal of 2% inflation, just as the Fed is doing. The business page speculation is that they're just trying to devalue the Yen to compete the Germany's exports priced in the weak Euro.
The reality is that there is already an awful lot of Yen in circulation, but speculators still keep buying into Yen priced investments and getting a pretty good return. This does make the Yen overvalued, it is bad for exports and their economy is slowing. Basically the BOJ is trying to control the situation for the same reason the Fed is trying to do it here. What we really have is a problem of cash hoarding because of low or even non-existent taxes on the rich worldwide. If nothing is done to interrupt this kind of cycle you will eventually tip over into a deflationary spiral that's impossible to stop, just like the early 30s in the US. Printing even more cash forces these people to actually do something with their money or watch inflation make it disappear. In theory this can work, but it's not a fool proof plan, nor does it fix the problem of all the rich people with hot money.
The European Central Bank is still obsessing with austerity as the cure for everything as if they were the proverbial lemmings heading for the cliff, even as more and more people are screaming 'stop'! The problem in Europe is that while they have a single currency they don't all share in the pain. In the US, Congress makes huge transfer payments to the Southern states that if left to their own resources would make the current situation in Greece look like paradise. Europe has to either start behaving like they have a Federal government, or end the Euro. They don't seem willing to do either, just as they aren't willing to admit austerity was a disaster.
Ever heard of 'The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists'? Using information that must have come from something akin to the 'Anonymous' hackers (or maybe the NSA) they have begun to reveal the rampant tax evasion of the wealthy.
The first articles based on a cache of 2.5 million files were published Thursday (today), laying bare the secrets of more than 120,000 offshore entities, including your basic shell corporations and legal structures known as trusts, that have been used to hide the finances of politicians (Mitt Romney?), crooks, drug smugglers, dictators and others from more than 170 nations.
Economists studying international banking reports have estimated the money involved in 'tax haven' banking at between 20 and 30 trillion dollars. This could be a low estimate according to the information coming out today.

Sword-Wielding Student Subdued
February 9, 2012 Andrew Wyrich Front Slide, News 3
An 18-year-old SUNY New Paltz student faces kidnapping and assault charges after holding students hostage in Deyo Hall with a sword, police said.
Issac Doughty, a first-year student, held several students in a suite-style residence hall by brandishing a katana-style sword early Tuesday morning before authorities were able to apprehend him, police said.
"I'm certainly surprised something like this happened," University Police Chief David Dugatkin said. "These kinds of things are rare on campuses."
After police entered the common room, Doughty retreated into his bedroom with two other students, Dugatkin said.
Steve Candela, a second-year secondary education major who lives in Doughty's suite, was in his own room when the incident occurred, but said he was in constant contact with those who were inside the bedroom and did not enter in an effort to keep the situation from getting worse.
"If anyone moved or approached [or] knocked on the door, his roommate said [Doughty] would probably snap and threaten their lives with the sword he had in possession," Candela said.
After a short while, a student from inside the bedroom disarmed Doughty and exited holding the two-foot sword.
After some persuasion, Doughty exited the room and engaged the officer, who used a Taser and pepper spray to subdue him, Dugatkin said.
Candela said Doughty was "clearly somewhere else" during the encounter with the officers and acting out of his usual character.
"It was pretty scary watching four officers struggling to get him handcuffed, as Isaac had no idea what was going on and was freaking out. He wasn't in his mind…He is not violent and he is actually very nice," Candela said.
Dugatkin said it was too early to be certain if Doughty was under the influence of any hallucinogenic drugs while he was holding students hostage, but officers said they could tell he was not in a right state of mind.
Ashley Mendriski, a first-year creative writing major and self-described best friend of Doughty, said he had been on a "bad trip" for 48 hours prior to the encounter and was acting out of fear, not maliciousness.
"He was just really, really afraid," Mendriski said. "He'd showed signs of suspicion regarding our plans to turn him over to the authorities. He didn't understand what he was doing, and the previous two days of his life had been nothing but fear, pain and confusion."
Students who lived across the hall from the suite said commotion and yelling could be heard from the hallway as well as Doughty punching doors and walls.
Deanna Baker, a third-year psychology major and Deyo resident, said she was concerned about the well-being of Doughty, but uneasy about leaving her room.
"The whole ordeal was overwhelming," Baker said. "On one hand there's a kid getting Tasered in my hallway, and I wanted to make sure he was alright. On the other hand he had a huge knife and might be tripping balls."
Dugatkin said students involved in the incident, and who lived in Deyo Hall, were scared and nervous. Counseling has been offered to all students that desire it.
In lieu of the incident, Dugatkin said no physical changes will be made to policies regarding finding weapons, however he urges students to be aware and vigilant.
"Outside of putting everyone's luggage through metal detectors, it is next to impossible to find these kinds of weapons," Dugatkin said. "Students should say something if they see something."
In SUNY New Paltz's Student Handbook, nunchaku sticks, firearms, knives and air guns are specifically cited as illegal weapons, while in the Residence Life Handbook only firearms and knives are listed as prohibited items.
Deyo Hall Complex Director Shannon Calderon declined to comment on the incident, and Director of Residence Life Corinna Caracci could not be reached for comment.
In a campus-wide email issued on Feb. 7, SUNY New Paltz President Donald Christian said Doughty has been banned from campus pending his criminal investigation and possible judicial action.
Doughty was charged with kidnapping, menacing, criminal possession of a weapon and assault in the second degree and was sent to Ulster County jail on $25,000 bail.

^ Just going by what was told by the police to me on record.
"he said", "She said", "police said" informative but seriously your entire article is quotes…
"After police entered the common room, Doughty retreated into his bedroom with two other students" ….that's a lie. when the cops came we had already been closed inside, we had been in that room with him for at least an hour. not that it's anyone's business to know this story but if you're going to tell it, and if i'm going to have to hear everyone around me talking about it, then tell it right.

ExxonMobil begins development of the ultra-deepwater Julia oil field in the Gulf of Mexico, highlighting a trend with massive implications for future oil prices.
ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM), the world's largest publicly traded oil company, recently announced that it's beginning development of a major ultra-deepwater project -- the Julia oil field in the Gulf of Mexico. The project is expected to cost more than $4 billion and will begin producing oil in 2016, the company said in a statement.
The field, located about 250 miles southwest of New Orleans, is one of the biggest oil discoveries in the ultra-deepwater frontier of the Gulf of Mexico and is estimated to contain nearly 6 billion barrels of oil resource in place. Exxon and Statoil (NYSE:EQNR), the Norwegian oil and gas giant, each hold a 50% interest in the field.
Initial development of Julia, which is located more than 30,000 feet below the ocean's surface, will include six wells that are expected to produce some 34,000 barrels of oil per day. "The development of Julia will provide a new source of domestic energy and well-paying jobs over the next several years. Access to resources such as Julia will contribute to US energy security for many years," said Neil W. Duffin, president of ExxonMobil Development.
Exxon's decision to commence development of the Julia oil field highlights an important trend among the world's largest integrated oil companies. Over the past few years, most have struggled to grow annual oil and gas production, as their conventional fields have largely been depleted after decades of intensive drilling.
For instance, embattled British oil giant BP (NYSE:BP) saw its first-quarter total oil and gas production fall 5% from year-ago levels, while French oil major Total (NYSE:TOT) reported a 2% drop. Even Exxon, despite its massive reserves and unparalleled efficiency in allocating capital, saw a 3.5% year-over-year decline in first-quarter production.
To combat this issue, the supermajors have been forced to venture into some of the most remote locations around the world in their never-ending quest for black gold. These have included the harsh, icy waters of the Arctic Ocean, bituminous oil sands deposits in Canada, and ultra-deepwater locations in offshore Brazil.
Several oil majors have even plowed billions of dollars into prospecting areas offshore Africa, despite the risk of unexpected actions by conflict-ridden governments. For instance, Chevron (NYSE: CVX) has acquired exploration blocks in Liberia and Sierra Leone, while Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS-A) and Brazilian oil giant Petrobras (NYSE:PBR) are jointly exploring deepwater acreage off the coast of Tanzania.
While these projects are enticing, given the massive quantities of oil and gas they could potentially hold, their development costs are sky-high and continue to soar. According to estimates by Wood Mackenzie, the consultancy, annual development costs in offshore Latin America and sub-Saharan deepwater are rising at between 5% and 10% a year.
And according to estimates by Bernstein Research, production costs among the 50 largest listed oil and gas companies globally surged 26% year over year in 2011, bringing their marginal costs -- the expenses associated with producing the last barrel -- to a whopping $92 per barrel that year.
The trend is undeniable: The marginal barrel of oil is now increasingly being extracted from harder-to-reach and more expensive-to-drill locales, as opposed to the conventional Saudi fields in days of yore.
And with marginal costs heading toward $100 a barrel, the floor beneath oil prices will probably continue to edge higher, with one resounding implication for the future of energy -- cheap oil isn't just hiding temporarily; it's gone forever.


. . . if you're not telling fortunes?
Often I have felt that I had been discarded here from another planet. I couldn't seem to find common ground with others. The usual things most people valued didn't interest me. There was always pressure to find your tribe or join a group of like minds. I couldn't find others who shared my sideways ideology, and I didn't fully subscribe to mainstream philosophies. I couldn't find a passion or interest that society viewed as acceptable. Nothing satisfied me, and I felt wayward and adrift.
When I started learning the tarot, I was intrigued and excited. This was a mysterious system that had the power to offer real guidance. Meanings had progressed several centuries, and on an unconscious level, laid out the present, the past that spawned it, and the likely path ahead. The tarot is not your parent or your boss, but when you have no trustworthy confidantes available, you can turn to a pack for possibilities. Even when the interpretation is unclear, it can offer so many ideas for consideration. Tarot can tell you what to do without judgment. But I prefer to view its directions as options, not predestination. I trust a Universal Force, but still own my choices in life with the tarot offering insight.
When everything else fell short of being helpful, the tarot was always available to speak the truth without fear of hurting my feelings or sugar-coating the tough love. The tarot will be completely impartial. Some people want to know when their dreams are going to come true. Because the tarot reads what is going with you, it won't necessarily tell you where the love of your life is hiding. It might talk about your past pain from relationships, unresolved issues, or where your focus would better serve you in the meantime. So, you might not always get the answers you want, but you'll most likely get the ones you need.
Many people consider tarot to be frightening or negative. In my experience, it all depends on who is doing the reading. There are diplomatic ways to deliver news that is not so positive. I've had people say, "I don't want to know anything bad." Okay. I don't focus on doom or gloom. Even if I see the darkness, I do my best to shine some light there. But we live in a world of duality. Life can't be all rainbows and fairy dust. I appreciate a heads-up so I can shift or adjust. The tarot can give you that if you're open to receiving.

Boeing CEO, Dennis Muilenburg has made a staement about the Boeing 737 MAX software, production and process updates with the tagline, "We Own Safety".
"As we work closely with customers and global regulators to return the 737 MAX to service, we continue to be driven by our enduring values, with a focus on safety, integrity and quality in all we do.
"We now know that the recent Lion Air Flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 accidents were caused by a chain of events, with a common chain link being erroneous activation of the aircraft's MCAS function. We have the responsibility to eliminate this risk, and we know how to do it. As part of this effort, we're making progress on the 737 MAX software update that will prevent accidents like these from ever happening again. Teams are working tirelessly, advancing and testing the software, conducting non-advocate reviews, and engaging regulators and customers worldwide as we proceed to final certification. I recently had the opportunity to experience the software update performing safely in action during a 737 MAX 7 demo flight. We're also finalizing new pilot training courses and supplementary educational material for our global MAX customers. This progress is the result of our comprehensive, disciplined approach and taking the time necessary to get it right.
"We are coordinating closely with our customers as we work through plans to mitigate the impact of this adjustment. We will also work directly with our suppliers on their production plans to minimize operational disruption and financial impact of the production rate change.
"In light of our commitment to continuous improvement and our determination to always make a safe industry even safer, I've asked the Boeing Board of Directors to establish a committee to review our company-wide policies and processes for the design and development of the airplanes we build. The committee will confirm the effectiveness of our policies and processes for assuring the highest level of safety on the 737-MAX program, as well as our other airplane programs, and recommend improvements to our policies and procedures.
"The committee members will be Adm. Edmund P. Giambastiani, Jr., (Ret.), former vice chairman, U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, who will serve as the committee's chair; Robert A. Bradway, chairman and CEO of Amgen, Inc.; Lynn J. Good, chairman, president and CEO of the Duke Energy Corporation; and Edward M. Liddy, former chairman and CEO of the Allstate Corporation, all members of the company's board. These individuals have been selected to serve on this committee because of their collective and extensive experiences that include leadership roles in corporate, regulated industries and government entities where safety and the safety of lives is paramount.

We will not stop talking about this law that caused a lot of movement on gambling … which already pushes the positioning of several operators until the final opening of the sector to competition. Soon, we see three major operators of online poker who share their interest in the French market. opérateurs du monde entier du poker en ligne qui font part de leur intérêt concernant le marché français.
Let us begin with the first, the Israeli grid Playtech October 4 that he had said he intended to expand these partnerships with companies currently operate in France. Playtech had done the same to open the Italian market, and it is he who provides software solutions to the most important Italian institutions, making him the undisputed player in this market.
And finally Paddy Power, the company money online Irish announces incentive group in the French market. But doubt persists for a license who engage in a battle with his own brand and then think to stand in asking support for a local partner.
Once this law applied, it is clear that all gamers can not go on sites licensed French, a market with purely French networks that will soon emerge.
Finally the company Playtech launches common technical ideas to be 'sharing' their lists of players … this idea should be perfectly Paddy Power which would require a partnership. On PartyGaming, the latter will certainly have to create alliances due to limited size of the French market.

OUCHIE !!!
Posted on December 2, 2013 by didymusjudasthomas
Bob 'n Weave Blaskiewicz selected from his
select "Sexual Predator" syllabus he must cite from; during sessions like his series at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, where he surely must supply sorry examples of how to supposedly elicit a "Pavlov's dog" style series of events from confused children; who've been told to "not talk to strangers," and "never go anywhere with someone you don't know," when he Gabroni's this gem and juice:
"He IS big pharma" [1]
How quaint
Bob is unable to back-up his biased talking-head brillnuance
But he hopes mightily that his brilliance of adding the nut menagerie symbolism of menutgerie:
"He uses the same legal loopholes available to drug companies … " [2]
Basically, "The Skeptics™," according to Bob, believe that every law they disagree with is a "legal loophole," but every law they might not agree with, but which their opposition feels is a "legal loophole," is a valid law to them
But I digress
Bob would have you believe that he thinks his readers are NOT smarter than a fifth-grader; and perhaps that belief is well founded, because a lot of Bob's regular followers may not really be: smarter than a 5tłh-grader", based on his theory that if a child were instructed to never go somewhere with a stranger, Bob believes that children, like his readers, can be "suckered" into ignoring warnings, and instead, if they are told a "plausible story" like:
"Your parent needs your help and they want you to follow me"
"They have some candy for you"
they will forego that which they have been told is the intelligent, correct choice, for the big, shiny, fruit of the stupid stick tree
Now, let's review Blatherskitewicz's attempt at Tolstory:
"He IS big pharma": "He uses the same legal loopholes available to drug companies … "
A 5th-grader is smart enough to see through Bobby's piss-poor Pulitzer Prize phallicy
Bobby excreted end-run attempt around intelligent-design, is his word-salad salute to
"Stupid is, as Stupid Does"
He tries to MisDisInform, by depositing that because Burzynski has to use the same, as he puts it, "legal loopholes" as BILLION Pharma, that this somehow translates into Burzynski being Big Pharma
Jeepers, creepers, this would be akin to me attempting to pull a Pol Pot over your Peepers, by trying to claim that just because Bobby Blatherskitewicz sits down and uses the same type of device; a toilet, to attempt to rid himself of what he is obviously "full of," that this means he is smarter than a 5th-grader who uses the same device, when it is clear that even medical-grade cannabis couldn't help Bobby Blatherskite be smarter than a 5th-grader
"He IS big pharma": "He uses the same large poophole", and even the largest roll of Charmin in the world wouldn't help him
Since Booby couldn't name an actual Big pharmaceutical company to contrast Burzynski with, let's take a look at one, shall we ?
2/7/2012, Monday, GlaxoSmithKline LLC (GSK) was fined $3 BILLION ($3,000,000,000 Billion) dollars, for actions which occurred from
(4/1998 – 2007)
How did this $3 BILLION dollar slap on the wrist affect GSK ?
Well, I'm glad you asked !
Before "Black Monday", 2/7/2012, EARNINGS PER SHARE was:
40.6¢ – .12/31/2011 (3 months ended)
Afterwards, a 1.6¢ rise:
42.2¢ – 3/31/2012 (3 months ended)
Before the United States Department of Justice's devastating news, Profit attributable to shareholders was:
$2,017,000,000 BILLION – .12/31/2011 (3 months ended)
After, a $77 MILLION ($77,000,000 Million) dollar rise to:
$2,094,000,000 BILLION – 3/31/2012 (3 months ended)
Before the 2/7/2012 surprise, Cash and cash equivalents (Current assets) was:
Afterward, a $161 MILLION ($161,000,000 Million) rise to:
Before the announcement, Total current assets:
$25,059,000,000 BILLION – .12/31/2011 (3 months ended)
After the FALL, a $986 MILLION ($986,000,000 Million RISE to:
$26,045,000,000 BILLION – 3/31/2012 (3 months ended)
And, last, but certainly NOT in any way, shape, or form, least, before "that" day, TOTAL ASSETS
The aftermath, a $1,610 BILLION ($1,610,000,000 Billion) increase to:
With the current TOTAL ASSETS being a miserly:
I'm NOT quite sure how they'll be able to function!!
Next, Bob Blaskiewicz tries to claim that since his vehicle uses gas, and a Rolls Royce uses gas, his car is like a Rolls Royce Silver Arrow

Critiquing: Eric Merola and Stanislaw Burzynski respond to the FDA findings and the USA TODAY story. Hilarity ensues
GorskiGeek starts off his soapbox stump speech:
"I was very pleased last Friday, very pleased indeed"
Of course he was
After all, it was as if USA TODAY was quoting directly from "The Skeptics™" fave Fahrvergnügen pharyngula and GorskGeeks's jacked July jabberwocky at "The Amazing Meeting" 2013 (TAM 2013 #TAM2013) Twitter Twaddle-fest
Given the normal subject matter of this blog, in which I face a seemingly unrelenting infiltration of pseudononsense pseudononscience and hackery into even the most hallowed halls of hacademic medicine, against which I seem to be fighting a mostly uphill battle, having an opportunity to see such an excellent non-deconstruction of science and medicine in a large bad mainstream news outlet like USA TODAY, GONE TOMORROW is rare and ungratifying
GorskGeek gambits:
"As you might recall, USA TODAY reporter Liz Szabo capped off a months-long investigation of Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski and his Burzynski Clinic with an excellent (and surprisingly long and detailed) report, complete with sidebars explaining why cancer experts don't think that Burzysnki's anecdotes are compelling evidence that his treatment, antineoplastons, has significant anticancer activity and a human interest story about patients whom Burzynski took to the cleaners"
My question ?
GorskGeek, how do you know it was a:
"months-long investigation" ?
The article does NOT indicate HOW LONG the USA TODAY "investigation" took
From this, I can only conclude, as I did after 1st reading the article, that based on the comments of Dr. David H. Gorski "Orac", that there must have been collusion between "The Skeptics™" and USA TODAY
Most of this, of course, is no news to my readers, as I've been writing about Dr. Burzynski on a fairly regular basis for over 8 months now
GorskGeek goofs:
"It's just amazing to see it all boiled down into three articles and ten short videos in the way that Szabo and USA TODAY did, to be read by millions, instead of the thousands who read this blog"
Thousands read his blog ?
Does he mean over the 2 year period he's been writing about Burzynski ?
GorskGeek Inspector Gadgets:
"Szabo also found out who the child was who died of hypernatremia due to antineoplastons in June 2012, a death that precipitated the partial clinical hold on Burzynski's bogus clinical trials, about which both Liz Szabo and I have quoted Burzynski's own lawyer, Richard Jaffe, from his memoir, first about Burzynski's "wastebasket" trial, CAN-1"
GorskGeek and USA TODAY both hashtag Failed to point out that a boy, the same age as Josia Cotto, survived a serum sodium (Na+) level of 234 mEq/L
If GorskGeek actually knew how to do real "science-based medicine" research, and if Liz Szabo and Jerry Mosemak had really actually done a "months-long investigation", maybe USA TODAY and "Orac" could have had enough time to have figured the above out, as well as the clinical trial Burzynski's attorney, Rick Jaffe, was referring to, was the CAN-1, which even you did NOT display any knowledge of in the July
TAMmany Twaddle [3], and your 11/15/2013 article [4]
Naturally, upon reading Liz Szabo's " story," I wondered how long it would be before there would be a response from GorskGeek or his minions
Both responses contain the same sorts of tropes, misinformation, and pseudononscience that I've come to expect from GorskGeek [1-2+4]
USA TODAY is biased and in the pocket of "The Skeptics™"
It was a "Shite Muslim Militia" piece
GorskGeek dreamsicles:
"I've deconstructed these, and many more, of Merola's nonsense over the last two years"
"Odd how @BurzynskiMovie pretends I haven't deconstructed his "evidence" in depth before"?
Really ?
GorskGeek is so much a monumental myopic Mythomaniac
GorskGeek all you did was "cherry-pick" what you wanted to blather about, and selectively ignored everything else
What actually surprised me was the viscousness of the counterhackattack
For example, in counterhackattacking Eric Merola's letter to Liz Szabo, GorskGeek tries unsuccessfully to claim that Merola actually hopes that her child will get cancer, so that Burzynski supporters can gloat about it and Szabo will have to apologize to her children for her "perfidy" (in GorskGeek's eyes, at least):
GorskGeek gesticulates:
"He denies that he hopes Szabo's children will develop brain cancer, but then gloats gleefully over the possibility that she would have to face them after having—again in his mind—"helped to destroy the only thing that could have helped" them"
In the dictionary, under the definition of "spin bowel movement (SBM)," there should be a picture of "Dr." (and I use that term very "loosely") David Gorski
GorskGeek would have fit in holistically as the propagandist for Hitler, Lenin, Mussolini, Pol Pot, Stalin, etc.
Then, just when I thought GorskGeek couldn't go any lower, he does, this time in his longer response on his blog
"Eric Merola and Stanislaw Burzynski respond to the FDA findings and the USA TODAY story. Hilarity ensues"
Obviously, to "Orac" asking GorskGeek to follow normal rules regulating medical ethics and human subject protections in critical trolls' blog trials is exactly like murdering millions of people's brain cells, carrying out horrible medical experimentation on common sense and sensibility, making untold numbers of Africans, slaves to his stupendousmess, and harassing, gratuitously, families of soldiers "killed" by his word salad battle
Didn't anyone ever teach GorskGeek that you need to build up to that sort of climax ?
Of course, the big difference between Hitler's propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels, unfortunately, is that compared to "Orac," he had talent, and David GorskGeek does NOT
GorskGeek is a hack and is only funny by accident because he has no filters that tell him when he's going way under the top
To him, Burzynski is an infidel
I do not share his belief, but, even worse, I have the temerity to criticize his god "Orac," or, to mix metaphors shamelessly, to point out that GorskGeek has no clothes
Since I've dealt with so many of the tropes included in GorskGeek's not-so-little rant, I hardly see the need to repeat myself
However, as a breast cancer surgeon's skeptic, I find one of GorskGeek's lies to be as despicable, or perhaps more so, than his ad hominem comparisons
GorskGeek, the Hitler of hipocracy, came up with this hit parade of paranoia and "conspiracy theory":
"I don't know what sort of attacks on the UK bloggers who produce the bulk of the skeptical blog posts about Burzynski are coming in Burzynski II, but when it comes to me no doubt Merola is referring to this bit of yellow journalism in 2010 from an antivaccine propagandist named Jake Crosby, entitled David Gorski's Financial Pharma Ties: What He Didn't Tell You" [5]
GorskGeek then ad hocs ad nauseum about ad hominem fallacy
"In this fallacy, rather than addressing the actual evidence and science that demonstrate their favorite brand of woo to be nothing more than fairy dust, the idea is to preemptively attack and discredit the person"
"The ad hominem is not just insults or concluding that someone is ignorant because, well, they say ignorant things and make stupid arguments (in which case calling someone stupid or ignorant might just be drawing a valid, albeit impolitic, conclusion from observations of that person's behavior), but rather arguing or insinuating that you shouldn't accept someone's arguments not because their arguments are weak but because they have this personal characteristic or that or belong to this group or that" [6]
GorskGeek, the huckster of hackery laments that "The Skeptics™" are subject to character assassination, NOT because of their "science-based medicine", but, alas, for being biased, lying, cowards
So, he must justify that as to why he then ad hominems those who he harangues:
"In Burzynski The Movie, Dr. Whitaker has his nose embedded so far up Dr. Burzynski's rectum that Dr. Burzynski wouldn't need a colonoscopy if Merola just strapped a light to Dr. Whitaker's face" [7]
"In the meantime, I realized that seeing Josh Duhamel stick his proboscis firmly up Burzynski's posterior was not enough to explain the disturbance that I was feeling" [8]
GorskiGeek seems to have an unhealthy infatuation with ASS
My suppositorsition is that GorskiGeek, the highfalutin' He-Man of hypocrisy, does wax on, wax off, waxes phonetic about ASS, because he is the apex of ASSmuchness
In essence, he denies the toxicity of water in terms I've never seen anyone try to downplay before:
Water… is toxic?
This was perhaps the most stunningly malicious use of emotion to manipulate the reader in any of the propaganda pieces against H2O in history
GorskGeek claims:
"Josia, as readers of Liz Szabo's report will know, was the six year old boy with an inoperable brain tumor who died of hypernatremia (elevated sodium levels in the blood) as a result of Burzynski's therapy"
GorskGeek gassticulates:
"As I pointed out last Friday and Szabo reported in her story, before his death Josia's serum sodium was measured at 205 mEq/L, way above the normal range of 136-145 mEq/L and well into the lethal range"
"As I pointed out then, I've never seen a sodium level anywhere near that high"
"During my residency, the highest I recall ever seeing was maybe around 180 mEq/L"
As I already pointed out previously in this article:
GorskGeek claims that Josia died of hypernatremia (elevated sodium levels in the blood) as a result of Burzynski's therapy
GorskGeek does NOT provide ANY citation(s), reference(s), and / or link(s) in support of his claim, and does NOT provide a copy of the autopsy
GorskGeek's brain cells must be "sleeping in excess", hence the symptoms of lethargy progressing ignorance of adverse events which approach critical black hole levels
Of course, none of this is new information
GorskGeek hacks:
"I also note that one of Burzynski's most famous patients, Hannah Bradley, who with her partner Pete Cohen proclaims herself cured of her brain cancer, thanks to Burzynski, suffered some pretty serious toxicities from antineoplastons herself, including high fevers to 103.9° F, shaking chills, and severe rashes"
"Pete even documented how badly Hannah reacted to antineoplastons in his YouTube documentary Hannah's Anecdote"
GorskGeek flummoxes in that he erred to elucidate that the "rash" which Hannah
experienced, even entailed epilepsy anti-seizure medication [4]
GorskGeek gambols the gabroni gambit by giving nothing but glib reasons for his genetically challenged gestation of Hannah's vlogs after gears up for Great Britain
Yes, GorskGeek is gabless about Hannah's progress in the G.B. as a germinating gerbil, as far as flu or fever, perhaps fearing his failure to feature any fact-checking facilitation a fanboy of Fanectdotes should fittingly fictionalize
The rest of GorskGeek's rant reads like a greatest hits compilation from cancer hacks
You get the picture
That's the whack-n-hack counterhackfensive trying to shore up Liz Szabo's sorry article
GorskGeek blowshard and long about the FDA Form 483′s findings, but does NOT heed his massive failure to be persuaded that:
"In Burzynski's defense, Jaffe notes that inspection reports represent preliminary findings"
"The FDA has not yet issued final conclusions"
Who would doubt that if GorskGeek were to blog about Burzynski's 1997 criminal trial, that he would NOT list each and every one of the 34 counts of mail fraud, 40 counts of violating Food and Drug Administration regulations, and the 1 contempt-of-court charge; all "allegations", which netted the U.S. Gubment absolutely NOTHING ? [9]
GorskGeek idolizes the Burzynski Research Institute (BRI) IRB, because of Burzynski's scientific publications, which indicate:
2003 – Membership of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) was in agreement with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) [10]
3/2004 – Membership of the Institutional Review Board (IRB) was in agreement with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) [10]
2004 – Membership of Institutional Review Board (IRB) was in compliance with FDA guidelines [10]
GorskGeek then does a piss-poor "slight of hand job", jerking the reader off about Pseudoprogression, pseudoresponse, so-called pseudoprogression, and "One phenomena, termed Pseudo-Progression (psPD)"
GorskGeek falls flat face first for failing to show this phenomenon has factually happened [11]
GorskiGeek, looks like back to the drawerin' board for you !
