If we want to think about the time, we will realize how our lives depending on it. We are bound to it and cannot escape. In this article we will see a sample about somebody life, how he is trying to cope with the running time.

You might remember the earlier which I had quoted in which I mentioned the farmer, a jailbird and the couple in love. It might have been difficult to figure out the differences behind the same concept of time applied to three different instances. In order to clear that up, I would like to introduce you to two people. The first person is Ben and the second person is Bob. Please say hi to Ben and Bob. Ben and Bob say hi to you reader.

Right, now that you have said hi to one another let me proceed to tell you a little more about these two fine gentlemen. Ben lives in the city. He works as a Market Analyst for a firm called. Oops For privacy reasons, Ben has asked me not to reveal the name of his company. Well, I guess that thats ok with us Ben. We are not too nosy are we. So getting on with Ben, Ben loves his job and he is one of the best in his field.

He has an office on the 56th floor of one of those skyscrapers down town. In fact, even if he takes an elevator, it would take him a good 2 minutes to reach his floor. I need not say that Ben has a very busy life. He does a lot of running around, he does market surveys, he does not do it directly; he has people to do the dirty work for him. But still he does a lot of running around and he is on his toes all day long. No he is not a ballet dancer; that was just a figure of speech that I used to tell you how busy he is. So lets take a closer look at Ben life without appearing nosy.

Ding-a-ling-a-ling Thats bens alarm clock gone off at 6 in the morning and Ben is up already. Just look at him, though he is in his well underwear, he still looks as large as life and as right as rain. What makes a man all perked up than a good night sleep. There, Ben is already out of the bathroom and he has put on a track suit. At half past six, he is already in his car and heading for the gym.

I forgot to tell you that Ben is one hell of a looker and is very conscious about his trim body. And in order to keep it that way he works out in the gym every single day and that too for an hour. So that means at quarter to eight he is on his way back home. There is a fifteen minute drive from his apartment to the gym. At 8.15 he has had a shower and dressed and is going down the elevator holding his morning paper in his hand. His office is only a ten minute drive from his apartment but at this rush hour, the traffic just crawls. So Ben chooses to use his electric razor in the car while he is driving, dangerous though it may seem.

People will do anything in order to cope with the time which is kept moving. But it is so important to know on how to deal with the time management.

Bob is a certified operator of the Intoxilyzer 5000, the forensic breath alcohol machine used by Virginia. Bob was the first attorney to discover that the Virginia Department of Forensic Science admitted in internal documents that its breath tester was

 

 

“dated, unstable and unreliable.” Bob found that the Department could not find replacement parts. He discovered that the head of the section responsible for maintaining the Intoxilyzer was not even qualified to work on the Intoxilyzers since she had not taken the manufacturer’s technician course

.

Bob has also taken and been certified in the standardized field sobriety test class that the police officers take at the police academy. Not stopping there as most police officers do, Bob took the necessary classes and then received his instructor certification in the

standardized field sobriety testing. Bob has the certifications necessary to teach the officer that arrested you.

Bob can give the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus, the Walk and Turn and the One Leg Stand as they are supposed to be given and assess if your officer failed to give such tests properly.

PART I

By ordering and reading this book you have set yourself apart from the mass of persons accused of DUI who fail to learn the TRUTH

 

 

. Choosing a Virginia DUI Lawyer

is not well liked among lazy lawyers who charge big fees and then plead you guilty without requiring the state to prove its case.

As a wise man once said

 

 

 

:

“You lose 100% of the cases you plead guilty!”

I will tell you a number of essential criteria that a good DUI attorney must have. I will also provide you below with the 8 direct questions to ask every potential DUI attorney. If the attorney hesitates or waffles in his or her answer or tries to tell you these questions are not important you should leave the office or hang up the telephone immediately. Your case and your future are too important to waste time talking to an attorney who will not be direct and honest with you.

I pride myself on being straight with all my clients; if you want a cheerleader who will ignore the facts and the law I am not the attorney for you. My job is not to tell you what you want to hear, but to tell you how things really are!

How to pick a Virginia DUI Attorney – The 8 Questions you must have answered.

1) How many years have you been in practice

 

 

? This will tell you a lot about the attorney’s potential experience. You want an attorney who has been the problems with the Government’s case before and knows how to use those problems to gain your acquittal.

Bob Keefer has been practicing since 1983 and has handled thousands of cases in his career.

 

2) What is the last seminar you attended on DUI defense and when did you attend that seminar?

 

 

DUI defense is not a static profession. New defenses arise all the time and your attorney needs to attend the specialty seminars where such defenses are discussed and explained. Your attorney also needs to belong to a network of DUI defense attorneys to stay current. The Government shares information among prosecutors; your defense attorney should do so as well.

Robert Keefer attends at least two DUI seminars a year and usually attends three. These seminars are given all over the country and involve the expense of airfare, hotel and fees for the seminar. Robert Keefer thinks being as informed as possible of possible defenses for you is worth the investment in time and money.

 

3) Does the attorney even know the name of the Intoxilyzer 5000

 

 

? A lot of people who claim to understand this breath tester do not even know its name. CMI calls it the Intoxilyzer 5000 (68 series). On the federal register it is called the CD/FG5. The 5 is relevant because it indicates the breath tester has five filters. Virginia does not have the 5000EN which is the next breath tester in the series produced by CMI, the breath tester’s manufacturer. If the attorney does not even know the name of the machine he will probably not be able to convince the Court CD/FG5 was not accurate in your case.

4) Do you routinely order the information on the breath tester from DFS?

 

 

The only way to determine if the breath tester was functioning properly is to careful review all of its records. The Attorney ought to already have or be moving quickly to obtain copies of the trouble call log, the analysis log and the maintenance log for the particular breath tester the Government used on you. If he does not then he does not know your machine. If he does not order your particular records, he is not thoroughly evaluating your case.

5) Do you have an Intoxilyzer 5000?

 

 

How can your lawyer adequately represent you when he does not even know the color of the start button?

6) Have you ever been disciplined by the State Bar?

 

 

You do not want a lawyer who has a long disciplinary rap sheet and you deserve to know if your lawyer has been disciplined in the past. If he has been disciplined and you are still interested in retaining him, find out the number of times he was disciplined and the reason for such punishment.

7) What challenges do you see in my case?

 

 

The Attorney should be able to tell you what challenges he sees in the case and what effect such challenges may have on the ultimate outcome.

What will be the final outcome of my case?

 

 

A good attorney will not promise you a specific result because it is impossible to be certain how a case will turn out. Any other answer is dishonest and unethical. A good attorney can only promise to his or her best job in protecting your interests. No lawyer wins all of his or her cases

but it is a certainly that you cannot win an issue your lawyer fails to recognize or fails to raise at trial.

Set out below are some potential defenses to a Virginia DUI. This list is not intended to be exhaustive and such defenses may or may not be available in your case.

POTENTIAL DEFENSES IN VIRGINIA DUI CASE

INVALID STOP

1) The arresting officer did not have “reasonable suspicion” to stop you.

 

 

 

The officer must have reasonable suspicion of a criminal or traffic matter to legally stop a vehicle. If the officer did not have reasonable suspicion then the case should be dismissed for that reason. For example, a partially peeling inspection sticker is not a valid basis for a stop.

2) The basis for the stop was “weaving within the lane.”

 

 

 

Many Virginia lawyers miss this issue entirely. Weaving within the lane is not the same as weaving over the center lane and over the line on the edge of the roadway. Virginia law requires a significant amount of weaving within your lane to justify a stop. With all the large vehicles such as SUVs on the road, could moving a matter of inches in the lane be a reason to stop? You need an attorney who knows this argument has merit.

3) Changing lanes without a signal as a basis for a stop.

 

 

 

Many lawyers believe that merely changing lanes without signaling is an offense. Not true. One is only required to signal if there is other traffic nearby. Most DUI arrests occur late at night and very often the police car is the only vehicle even within sight distance of the driver.

4) Anonymous Tip of possible drunk driver from citizen.

 

 

 

Today almost everyone has a cell phone and more and more suspected drink drivers are being pulled over on the basis of an anonymous 911 call. Virginia law requires that, prior to being legally allowed to stop a car, the officer must obtain sufficient corroborating evidence from the caller to verify the caller’s identification, how the caller obtained the information and what the factual basis is for the caller’s conclusion the suspect is a drunk driver. If the officer does not obtain sufficient corroboration the stop is invalid and the charge must be dismissed.

INVALID ARREST DEFENSES

5) The officer did not have probable cause to make the arrest.

 

 

 

The burden on the officer is greater to arrest you than it is to stop you. The officer must have reasonable suspicion to stop; however, he must have probable cause to arrest. If a motion to dismiss for lack of probable cause to arrest is made the Court considers all facts gathered by the officer before the arrest; what happened after the arrest: the breath or blood test is not relevant.

6) Failure to effectively and persuasively respond to the prosecutor’s argument that the Government’s burden to show a valid arrest is “only” probable cause.

 

 

 

Probable cause is a lesser standard that beyond a reasonable doubt – the standard of proof necessary for the Government to convict. However this is the standard of proof in a civil case; it is not an easy to reach standard like the prosecutors suggest to the Court. The Government must prove from its evidence that it was more likely than not that the accused was driving under the influence.

The Government’s burden to prove probable cause by a preponderance of the evidence is a significant burden to meet and your lawyer should remind the Court of that significant burden.

 

OFFICER’S OBSERVATIONS OF THE ACCUSED

7) Odor or alcohol. Alcohol has no odor

 

 

 

. One cannot tell when someone drank from odor; one cannot tell what someone drank from odor; one cannot tell one cannot tell how much one drank from odor. Your attorney should bring this out on cross examination.

Bloodshot and glassy eyes.

 

 

 

The officer will have to admit that he or she does not know how the Accused’s eyes normally appear. Most lawyers do not know that glassy eyes were never seen as a clue by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of intoxication. Most lawyers also do not know that in a 1997 NHTSA study bloodshot eyes were removed from the list of impairment clues since there were so many other possible causes besides excessive alcohol.

9) Slurred speech.

 

 

 

Again the officer will have to admit that he does not know how the Accused normally sounds. On cross examination the attorney should ask the officer whether he understood what the Accused was saying. Then the officer should be asked whether the Accused was slurring every word or just some words.

FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS

10) Failure to make a blanket objection to all field sobriety tests.

 

 

 

The officer does not know how the Accused would normally perform on these roadside exercises. He is only assuming that any perceived errors were caused by alcohol. Moreover, these “tests” were not designed to detect impairment. Instead, their function is to prognosticate whether someone exceeds the .08 blood alcohol level; nothing more.

11) Failure to object to referring to these as “field sobriety tests” in a jury trial.

 

 

 

This name gives the road side exercises more credibility than they deserve, especially to a jury.

12) The standardized field sobriety tests are inaccurate

 

 

 

. NHTSA approved three tests: Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN), Walk and Turn & One Leg Stand. The Government determined that the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus and the Walk and Turn together were only 80% likely to be correct that the Accused’s BAC was .08 or better. An 80 is not a good grade.

13) Failure to determine if the Accused is an appropriate candidate for these roadside exercises

 

 

 

. HGN has at least 38 causes other than alcohol. Among those are caffeine, cold remedies, nicotine from cigarettes and the flue. A good attorney always checks his clients to determine if they have nystagmus from one of these other causes. Certain eye problems or injuries also make HGN inappropriate. If the Accused is 50 or more pounds overweight, over 60 years old, or has physical impairments that affect their ability to balance, he or she is not an appropriate candidate for these exercises.

14) Failure to point out the location where the exercises were given.

 

 

 

Most of the time these exercises occur on the side of the road. Many such locations are uneven and are covered by debris. NHTSA requires that the Walk and Turn & the One Leg Stand be performed on a smooth, level surface.

15) The Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus is not a scientifically valid test under roadside conditions.

 

 

 

When medical doctors conduct this testing they do so in well light areas employing medical equipment that holds the patient’s head still and clearly lists the angles. The officer, for one test, must determine whether he detects the onset of nystagmus prior to 45%. It is almost impossible without be accurate on the angle. The Government should be required to present expert testimony to link nystagmus with BAC levels.

16) The non-standard tests are invalid.

 

 

 

The ABCs, finger touch, nose touch and counting are not valid tests even under the Government’s testing. Your Attorney should object to them.

BREATH AND BLOOD TESTS

17) Failure to object to admissibility of the preliminary breath test (PBT) at a motion to dismiss for lack of probable cause to arrest.

 

 

 

Many lawyers give up because the Virginia Court of Appeals allowed a PBT result to be used in a motion to dismiss. What those lawyers fail to realize is that the PBT has been maintained as required by the PBT’s manufacturer and that the administrative rules have been followed.

18) Failure to obtain maintenance records for the Intoxilyzer 5000.

 

 

 

Machines are not perfect. Machines are not “magic boxes”. All machines break down. Any problems with the breath tester around the time of the Accused’s test could cause the test or even the case to be thrown out.

19) Failure to argue that the BAC at the time of the driving was below .08.

 

 

 

The blood alcohol level is not constant in the Accused. It rises as it is absorbed by the body; it falls as it is processed by the body. Your attorney needs to know how this works so he can show that while the Accused’s BAC might have been .08 or better at the time of testing it was below .08 at the time of driving. Many uneducated attorneys don’t even bother to figure that out. Bob Keefer won a .14 BAC by breath tester case where the Accused had an accident shortly after drinking. The Court, assisted by a Toxicologist hired by Bob Keefer, determined that the Accused’s BAC at the time of driving was .06 at most.

20) Failure to spot multiple issues in the case.

 

 

 

Often the Accused is involved in a single car accident the officer did not observe. In order for the breath or blood test to be admissible the Accused must be arrested within 3 hours of operating the vehicle on a public highway. The Officer may also not have seen the Accused in the driver’s seat so he needs to establish that he was the driver at all. The Officer must also establish that the Accused did not drink after the accident. Something he often cannot do unless the Accused tells him. Often the Accused is taken to a hospital and very often the hospital does not follow the rules to obtain a proper blood sample. Your lawyer needs to explore all of these issues.

I could go on but my point is not to exhaustively list all possible DUI Defenses – that would take thousands and thousands of pages – but instead to point out to you that you need … and deserve competent, educated, thorough counsel to guide you and your defense through the intricate world of DUI Defense

I get tired of watching attorneys take large fees from clients simply to plead them guilty. Many of those clients have winnable cases but the lawyers are either too lazy or too poorly versed in the intricacies of DUI to see the winning argument.

NO LAWYER LOOKS BAD IN HIS OFFICE

 

Most attorneys have no idea that significant problems exist with the breath tester that generates the most important evidence the state will attempt to use against you -– the breath test certificate. Bob does; he owns one.

 

The fact that you have taken the time to request this book shows you are serious about winning your DUI case. I only work with people who want to win their DUI case. I am not the lawyer who “holds” your hand while pleading you guilty.

If you’re writing your wedding vows or personalizing your wedding ceremony with meaningful readings, delve into the world of literature, poetry, quotes and lyrics for inspiration. Here are some sample passages to get you started…

Poetry

William Shakespeare – “Romeo and Juliet”

My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite. William Shakespeare – “Sonnet 116″

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken. Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle’s compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me proved, I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

Wilferd Peterson – The Art of Marriage

The little things are the big things. It is never being too old to hold hands. It is remembering to say, “I love you” at least once a day.

It is never going to sleep angry. It is at no time taking the other for granted; the courtship should not end with the honeymoon, it should continue through all the years.

It is having a mutual sense of values and common objectives. It is standing together facing the world. It is forming a circle of love that gathers in the whole family. It is doing things for each other, not in the attitude of duty or sacrifice, but in the spirit of joy.

It is speaking words of appreciation, and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways. It is not expecting the husband to wear a halo or the wife to have the wings of an angel. It is not looking for perfection in each other.

It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding and a sense of humor. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It is giving each other an atmosphere in which each can grow.

It is finding room for the things of the Spirit. It is a common search for the good and the beautiful. It is establishing a relationship in which the independence is equal, dependence is mutual, and the obligation is reciprocal.

It is not only marrying the right partner, it is BEING the right partner. This is “The Art of Marriage”

Apache Wedding Blessing

Now you will feel no rain, For each of you will be shelter to the other. Now you will feel no cold, For each of you will be warmth to each other. Now there is no more loneliness for you, For each of you will be comfort to the other. Though you are two bodies, There is but one life before you. Go now to your dwelling place, To enter into the days of your togetherness. And, may the days of your life Be good and long upon the earth.

To Love and Be Loved

We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

Moulin Rouge

The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.

The Notebook

The best love is the kind that weakens the soul, that makes us reach for more, that plants fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that’s what you’ve given me. That’s what I hope to give to you forever.

The Notebook

Poets often describe love as an emotion that we can’t control, one that overwhelms logic and common sense. That’s what it’s like for me. I didn’t plan on falling in love with you, and I doubt that you planned on falling in love with me. But once we met, it was clear that neither of us could control what was happening to us. We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me love like that has happened only once, and that’s why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I’ll never forget a single moment of it.

Synopsis of Sarah Palin Going Rogue Audio Book

Listen to the FREE SAMPLE of “Going Rogue an American Life Audio Book”

It’s hard to believe that its just been one year since Sarah Palin took the national political stage by storm. Having said that she is still an unknown but truly an exceptional woman. Sarah’s eagerly anticipated “Going Rogue an American Life Audio Book” proves she has a message for us to hear!

Sarah Palin (Alaska Governor) made her true mark on the political scene when she delivered a speech on 3rd September 2008 in Alaska that catapulted her into the big league. She soon became a woman with a mission.

As the “Chief” of Alaska (US largest state) she became know as a reformer. A politician who was prepared to not just talk but “walk the talk”. While others were just prepared to just talk she became known as a woman of action. She tackled Ethics reform. Energy independence. And one of the largest infrastructure projects (privatised) in our countries history .

In parallel to this she put public school funding into better shape than before and ensured her colleagues in government delivered on their promises to Alaska’s Native populations and Alaska’s senior citizens. She wasted no time at taming the “Big Oil” issues that her male counterparts were fanning around with.

It goes without saying that Palin wasn’t a faceted political diamond. She is a woman of the real world block: a wife and a hard working mother of five.  Her eldest son who has served his country and put his life on the line in a deployment to Iraq has certainly helped touch the heart of millions of Americans. Then you realise she also has to contend with caring for her a special needs infant and suddenly Sarah Palin begins to take on a different shape before those she governed and those that may vote for her again if the opportunity presents itself. Palin’s real life struggles certainly touched a cord and was a catalyst for hundreds of thousands taking the GOP pass!  

As the campaign matured, Palin became a whip for both admiration and critique!  
Many of those supporting her believed she was “honest”, “refreshing,” an example of a public servant that would have their best interest at heart. Then the line drew and the opposition summed her up as an in-experienced lassie totally unprepared for the real world of big time politics. The twist in the Sarah Palin story is neither side really knew who stood before them.

The release of Sarah Palin’s autobiography was long over due for many. It intimately describes her exciting life growing up in Alaska; meeting the man who became her husband; her choice to pursue a political career; her faith and respect for the family arrangement; and the roller coaster life of politics and motherhood.

She unveils for the very first time issues she faced in the 2008 presidential race, surfacing behaviour that many know already existed in the political realm.

Sarah Palin’s Going Rogue takes you on a journey of an ordinary American citizen, and will inspire millions like her as she drizzles her vision of the only way forward for our home and country.
