", "Ostensibly centered around a shapeshifting Pennywise-like murderer of children, its darkest threats are less fantastical and defeatable than uncontainable and unnervingly mundane. ", "King’s real subjects here are a world spinning out of control, the dangers of people who refuse to see the truth, and the rotting of a society in moral decay, like a supernatural No Country For Old Men. ", "It seems significant that a character is threatened not with death, but with cancer, this world’s condition made manifest in the flesh. ", "It seems more significant that twice we’re taken to locations where a ghastly event has occurred. ", "One of them is graffitied with a swastika, the other with TRUMP MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN TRUMP. ", "Well, don’t monstrous times deserve a monster of their own?", "\n\nShifting the action from King’s beloved Maine to an unholy Bible Belt, The Outsider opens with the discovery of a brutal crime: a child who was slaughtered, raped, and partially eaten. ", "The only silver lining for the Oklahoma cops investigating the case is its apparent open-and-shut quality—there are witnesses, fingerprints, and DNA evidence, all of which directly implicate the small town’s beloved Little League coach. ", "The only complicating factor is his airtight alibi, which can only be explained—or not explained, rather—by his being in two places at once. ", "It’s an example of genuinely alternative facts, in that both stories seem provably right, a contradiction that no one is able to grapple with.", "\n\n\nWhat’s remarkable and deeply pleasurable about the book is the way King slowly builds this world out. ", "He may be tilling genre ground that’s similar to early blockbusters like Pet Sematary and It, but he’s doing so with the patience and maturity that’s marked the elder statesman stage of his career. ", "He doesn’t tell a scary story so much as arrive at one; he takes the time to consider the rippling effects of violence on victims, and it isn’t until the book is significantly over that he even leaves his main characters to shade in what else is going on.", "\n\nAt the same time, here is the creepy King we grew up with, his grindhouse instincts firmly intact. ", "Old-school fans who prefer his down-and-dirty-pillows work to his more literary output will greet this as one of his strongest in years. ", "It certainly is from the point of view of pure plotting; King has become so adept at structure that multiple times you get that all-too-rare story satisfaction, as a key piece of information you absorbed without realizing it suddenly reveals its significance.", "\n\n\nAll of these strengths are enough to offset some of the book’s weaker qualities. ", "King’s premise is so engaging that there’s a bit of a downshift in enjoyment when the mystery section turns into suspense, and then again when suspense turns to action. ", "The Outsider itself, who also recalls Randall Flagg and the shit-weasels of Dreamcatcher (one sequence here, set during a bout of diarrhea, nearly justifies his impulse to write that misfire), finally emerges as a bit of a letdown, more compelling when talked about than in its onscreen moments. ", "And as much as a pageturner as this is, it isn’t one of King’s scariest.", "\n\nThere’s also King’s, shall we say, generous view toward his characters, his way of making them so distinct that they become distracting. ", "Conversations unnaturally include exchanges that explain jokes or underline references. ", "Some characters use invented slang while others with no other literary inclinations are liable to quote poetry or reveal thematically relevant memories to near-strangers. ", "It’s just not convincing that a modest and quiet woman would use the verb “splooge” here, or that she would refer to life being “poopy” after an attack.", "\n\n\nOf course, these things all come with the territory when it comes to King; they’re as much a part of the fun of his prose as they are a part of the problem. ", "And despite some rough edges, he really has given pop culture a near-unending parade of memorable moments and characters. ", "That tradition continues here, notably with a novice private investigator whose encyclopedic movie knowledge comes in unexpectedly handy (she’s introduced watching Stanley Kubrick’s Paths Of Glory. “", "Better than The Shining,” she declares). ", "He’s not saying that pop culture is going to save the world, but writing books that are this easy to devour nearly makes the case for him." ]

[ "Introduction {#s0001}\n============\n\nIt is estimated that more than one million workers worldwide perform welding as a part of their work (Sjogren & Langard, [@CIT0031]), and studies have shown that welders experience an increased risk of respiratory illness (Antonini, [@CIT0002]). ", "Welding fumes consist of a mixture of gas and agglomerated particles (networks of interacting particles) that are built up of primary nanoparticles (Jenkins & Eagar, [@CIT0017]). ", "A correlation between exposure to nanoparticles in urban air and adverse health effects, such as cardiovascular disease and pulmonary diseases such as bronchial asthma, has been suggested (Nawrot et al., [", "@CIT0026]). ", "The welding particles are small enough to remain airborne and are easily inhaled and deposited within the respiratory tract (Oberdorster et al., [", "@CIT0027]). ", "The effects of these deposited particles are probably dependent on particle parameters, e.g. chemical composition, size, surface properties, and shape, which influence solubility and the site of particle deposition in the airways (Maynard & Kuempel, [@CIT0022]).", "\n\nWhen particles encounter a biological fluid, molecules such as proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates will, in competition with each other, bind to the particle\\'s surface leading to the formation of a dynamic particle--biomolecule interaction (Cedervall et al., [", "@CIT0009]). ", "The protein corona that is formed can have a significant impact on the biological effects of the particles (Saptarshi et al., [", "@CIT0028]; Tenzer et al., [", "@CIT0033]). ", "The composition of the protein corona will constantly change until equilibrium is reached (Dell\\'orco et al., [", "@CIT0011]), but some proteins in the corona can remain bound to the particle as it travels from one environment to another (Monopoli et al., [", "@CIT0023]; Tenzer et al., [", "@CIT0032]).

", "Obsidian argued that because Cox had \"no evidence to support the truth of any of her statements,\" the judge should grant summary judgment as to the question of liability, leaving the question of damages for trial. ", "Padrick also filed a declaration denying the truthfulness of Cox's statements, and included copies of Cox's blog posts.", "\n\nOn May 4, 2011 Cox answered Obsidian's complaint, filed an opposition to Obsidian's motion for summary judgment, and made a number of counterclaims. ", "Her counterclaims alleged conspiracy, harassment, and defamation.", "\n\nAfter Obsidian and Cox traded another round of briefs on the summary judgment motion, and after Obsidian answered Cox's counterclaims, the judge ruled against Obsidian on the summary judgment question. ", "The opinion focused on the fact that Cox's contested posts were \"replete with scattershot, hyperbolic accusations,\" and that the \"broad context\" of the posts (including the name of the blog) meant that Cox's assertions were \"less likely to be viewed as statements of fact.\" ", "The judge also announced his intention to, sua sponte, grant summary judgment in favor of Cox. ", "He then gave Obsidian two weeks to file a brief in opposition of this new summary judgment ruling.", "\n\nObsidian then filed an opposing brief; Cox did not respond. ", "The judge then granted summary judgment for Cox as to all but one blog post. ", "The judge wrote that \"blogs are a subspecies of online speech which inherently suggest that statements made there are not likely provable assertions of fact.\" ", "He again found that the blogs' incendiary titles would cause readers to \"view [the posts] with a certain amount of skepticism and with an understanding that they will likely present one-sided viewpoints rather than assertions of provable facts.\" ", "The judge cited blogs' \"setting and format,\" which create a \"looser, more relaxed communication style\" less likely to be seen as factual. ", "Furthermore, the judge found that the \"general tenor\" of Cox's posts suggested that she had a \"personal vendetta\" against Obsidian, which \"undermine[d] the reader's expectations\" that Cox's assertions were factual.", "\n\nThe judge also described Cox's language – \"a fanciful diatribe\" – as undercutting a reader's expectation of factual information. ", "And while certain statements from Cox's post could, in isolation, be seen as arguably factual, when \"the content and context of the surrounding statements are considered,\" they would not be understood as assertions of fact.", "\n\nThe judge did deny summary judgment as to one post Cox made on another website, bankruptcycorruption.com. ", "He found that because the post was removed from the less factual context of obsidianfinancesucks.com, read more like a \"factual narrative,\" and contained some \"fairly specific allegations,\" it would be possible for a fact-finder to read the post as asserting facts.", "\n\nOn October 14, 2011, Obsidian moved for sanctions against Cox, arguing that she had not been cooperating in discovery.", "\n\nUPDATES:\n\nNovember 2, 2011: the district court allowed attorneys fees but denied further sanctions against Cox, and ordered Cox to comply with discovery requests. ", "On November 9, Obsidian filed a motion to compel, requesting answers to multiple interrogatories and discovery requests. ", "Cox objected, relying upon, inter alia, Oregon's right of retraction statute (O.R.S. § 31.215) and Oregon's media shield law (O.R.S. §§ 44.510–44.540). ", "In a verbal order on November 28 the judge denied application of the right of retraction and shield law.", "\n\nNovember 29, 2011: The case went to a one-day trial. ", "The jury in the case found for the plaintiff Obsidian for $1,000,000, and for Kevin Padrick for $1,500,000. ", "The jury instructions for the case make no mention of a negligence or other fault requirement for defamation in Oregon, specifically stating that the defendant's knowledge of the statement's truth or falsity was irrelevant to the determination.", "\n\nNovember 30: In a written order, the district court judge clarified his oral ruling from November 28. ", "The judge noted that Oregon's right of retraction law applies only to statements made in print or broadcast media, and does not apply to Internet blogs. ", "As for Oregon's media shield law, the court found that the law only applies to a person \"conected with … any medium of communication to the public,\" and that the statute defines \"medium of communication\" as \"any newspaper, magazine or other periodical, book, pamphlet, news service, wire service, news or feature syndicate, broadcast station or network, or cable television system.\" ", "The court declined to include blogs as part of that definition, and noted that even if it did, O.R.S. 44.530(3) states that the provisions of the shield law \"do not apply with respect to the content or source of allegedly\ndefamatory information, in civil action for defamation wherein the\ndefendant asserts a defense based on the content or source of such\ninformation.\"", "\n\nAs for the substantive claim of defamation, the court rejected several First Amendment claims made by Cox. ", "The court found that Obsidian and Padrick were not public figures as defined in New York Times v. Sullivan, that the jury did not have to find that Cox was negligent when publishing her statements under Gertz v. Robert Welch, Inc. because Cox is not a \"media\" defendant, and that the statements Cox made were not on a matter of public concern.", "\n\nJanuary 4, 2012: Cox filed a Motion for a New Trial and in the Alternative for Remittitur. ", "The Motion argued that, for three separate reasons, the Court should grant a new trial. ", "First, Cox argued that even if plaintiffs were treated as private figures, under Gertz the jury should have been instructed that she could be held liable for proven compensatory damages only if the jury found negligence, and for presumed damages only if the jury found actual malice. ", "Second, Cox argued that because Kevin Padrick was a court-appointed bankruptcy trustee, he should be treated as a public official with respect to his duties. ", "Third, she argued that a new trial or remittitur is required because the evidence presented did not support a finding of $2.5 million in damages.", "\n\nJanuary 11, 2012:Electronic Frontier Foundation (\"EFF\"), a non-profit digital rights organization, filed an amicus brief in support of Cox's Motion for a New Trial. ", "In its brief, EFF supported Cox's arguments that the court should have instructed the jury to apply a negligence standard in order to find her liable for defamation, and that the damage award lacked evidentiary support. ", "Additionally, EFF urged the court to reconsider its finding that Cox was not a \"media\" defendant. ", "EFF argued that Oregon's retraction statute should be interpreted to include Internet publishers, because \"Internet publication is no different ... than the broad publication methods identified in the statute.\" ", "EFF also argued that Cox should be protected under Oregon's shield law, because she was \"engaged in a medium of communication to the public.\" ", "EFF maintained that the court, in ruling against Cox on both issues, created an \"unnecessarily hostile\" environment for Internet speech.", "\n\nJanuary 30, 2012: Plaintiffs opposed Cox's motion for a new trial. ", "Plaintiffs argue that any objection over the jury instruction is waived by a failure to timely object to the motion under FRCP Rule 51. ", "Plaintiffs further argue that the minimum-fault rule in Gertz should not apply to this case, and that Oregon's shield law and retraction statute are inapplicable.", "\n\nMarch 27, 2012: The district court denied Cox's motion for a new trial. ", "The court first rejected Cox's argument that Padrick should be considered a \"special purpose\" public official. ", "According to the court, private bankruptcy trustees do not qualify as public officials of any sort. ", "The court also ruled that the \"matter of public concern\" category was not so broad as to encompass Cox's allegations.", "\n\nThe court next rejected Cox's argument, based on Gertz and other cases, that defamation defendants can only be held liable for compensatory damages if the jury finds negligence. ", "After an extended discussion of Supreme Court case law, the district court concluded that \"the question of what standard of liability to apply to a private plaintiff who sues a non-media defendant over allegedly defamatory statements made on a private issue, remains unanswered\" as a matter of constitutional law. ", "While the Supreme Court has repeatedly stated that media defendants receive no more First Amendment protection than other defendants, the district court stated that the Supreme Court has not yet \"squarely held\" that negligence is required in cases like Cox's.", "\n\nAfter briefly disposing of EFF's arguments under Oregon's retraction statute and shield law, the district court also ruled that \"the evidence supports the damages awarded to each of the plaintiffs,\" and denied Cox's motion on this ground as well.", "\n\nMarch 30, 2012: Cox filed her notice of appeal to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.", "\n\nApril 24, 2012: Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal. ", "They appealed (1) the district court's order denying their motion for partial summary judgment and giving notice that it intends to grant summary judgment for the defendant, (2) the court's supplemental opinion denying their supplemental motion for summary judgment as to blog posts not previously submitted and granting summary judgment for the defendant with respect to all but one blog post, and, (3) the court's oral ruling ordering that their expert witness could not testify to the influence on buyers of derogatory statements appearing in a search engine results page.", "\n\nOctober 10, 2012: Crystal Cox filed her opening brief. ", "Cox argued, among other things, that she is entitled to a new trial because the district court gave faulty jury instructions on the fault standards applicable to her claim.", "\n\nFirst, Cox asserted that Gertz applies to all public speakers, regardless of whether they are members of the institutional press. ", "Therefore, she argued, even if the plaintiffs are private figures, the jury should have been required to find that she acted negligently in order to hold her liable for damages, and, in order to find her liable for presumed damages, the jury should have had to find that she acted with actual malice.", "\n\nShe further argued that her speech was on a matter of public concern, because allegations that a person is involved in crime generally constitute speech on matters of public concern, particularly allegations of fraud within a government program. ", "She distinguished Dun & Bradstreet v. Greenmoss Builders, Inc. on the basis that her speech was (1) not solely in her interest or that of her specific business audience, (2) available to the public at large, (3) not solely motivated by desire for profit, and (4) not objectively verifiable.", "\n\nShe also argued that allegations of tax fraud by a court-appointed bankruptcy trustee do not lose their public concern status even if they deal with an incident that has not yet been a matter of public discussion. ", "She argued that, as a matter of policy, it is unwise to grant lower protection to speakers unearthing a single instance of misconduct than to those covering a broader national problem or large-scale issue after particular misconduct is discovered. ", "She notes that the absence of an existing controversy may be relevant to whether the plaintiff is a public figure, but not to whether the speech is on a matter of public concern.", "\n\nCox relied on dictum in Newcombe v. Adolf Coors Co. to argue that the Ninth Circuit has found Gertz to require a showing of negligence even in private concern cases, and therefore, even if she is found to have spoken on a matter of purely private concern and the plaintiffs are found to be private figures, the court should have instructed the jury that she was only liable if she was negligent.", "\n\nWith respect to the plaintiffs' status as private or public figures, Cox argued that a court-appointed bankruptcy trustee should be treated akin to a public official with regard to the performance of his duties, and that, under New York Times v. Sullivan, the district court therefore should have instructed the jury that the plaintiffs had to prove actual malice. ", "She cited to several state court cases finding that when a court-appointee has government-delegated duties affecting citizens' money or property, those holding such positions should be considered public officials with regard to the performance of their duties. ", "She further argued that that the protections of Sullivan apply to her, regardless of whether she was a member of the institutional media, citing several Supreme Court cases that have applied the case to non-media speakers.", "\n\nOctober 17, 2012: The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press filed an amicus curiae brief in support of reversal. ", "The Committee noted that the distinction between media and non-media defendants in private-figure libel suits creates heightened interest in broadly defining the term \"news media.\"", "\n\nAlthough the Supreme Court has interpreted Gertz to prohibit strict liability in state defamation laws only when the laws are applied to speech on matters of public concern, the Committee argued that it is unresolved whether Gertz is limited to media defendants and that several states do not apply Gertz to nonmedia defendants. ", "This distinction, the Committee argued, makes the definition of \"media defendant\" critically important in libel cases.", "\n\nAs such, the Committee urged the court to interpret the term \"media defendant\" broadly enough to include any content provider who has the intent, when gathering information, to disseminate it to the public.", "\n\nThe Committee stated that the Supreme Court has long recognized that the definition of \"press\" does not depend on the medium of distribution and that many courts, including the Ninth Circuit, have held that testimonial privilege applies to individuals engaged in the practice of compiling information for public dissemination, regardless of their membership in the traditional press. ", "According to the Committee, in the same way that an author's function, not the medium of publication, triggers a shield law's protection, an author's function should determine whether he or she could be classified as a member of the media entitled to the protections afforded by Gertz.", "\n\nFinally, the Committee argued that courts must apply a broad definition of whether speech is in the public interest for purposes of establishing the standard of fault in libel cases. ", "The Committee examined a number of Supreme Court and Ninth Circuit cases that demonstrate that, when evaluating speech's public nature, courts interpret public concern broadly and look to the \"point\" of speech by evaluating factors like the target audience and the speaker's motivation. ", "In this case, the Committee argued that, by narrowly focusing its public concern analysis on speech that exposes public corruption, the lower court failed to comply with the broad principles outlined by the Ninth Circuit and the Supreme Court. ", "Therefore, the Committee recommended that the Ninth Circuit reverse the lower court's ruling and remand for a more thorough assessment of whether Cox meets the public concern test under the proper constitutional standards.", "\n\nOctober 17, 2012: SCOTUSblog filed an amicus curiae brief in support of neither party. ", "SCOTUSblog stated that, while it takes no position on the merits of the dispute, it filed a brief to illustrate how the criteria for liability applied by the district court could generate incorrect results in the case of a blog that provides a public service and should receive First Amendment protections\n\nThe brief notes that SCOTUSblog could be subject to allegations of libel and defamation like those asserted in this case, because it publishes strongly worded critiques that may offend their subjects.", "\n\nMoreover, SCOTUSblog asserted that it could not satisfy several of the criteria articulated by the district court, leaving it vulnerable to an adverse decision in a defamation case: only one of the blog's contributors has any training in journalism, the blog does not have media credentials or proof of affiliation with any recognized news entity, it does not as a general rule do any fact-checking, and it does not maintain notes of conversations, interviews, or research. ", "Given that the court did not specify how many characteristics the defendant would need to posses to qualify for First Amendment protections afforded to \"media,\" the blog expressed concern that it would not qualify. ", "This risk of liability would, it argued, have a chilling effect on the content the blog posts, which will result in less complete coverage of the Supreme Court.", "\n\nSCOTUSblog therefore requested that the Ninth Circuit establish that non-traditional news sources that provide a useful public service by gathering, analyzing, and disseminating information receive the same First Amendment protections afforded to traditional news sources, even if they cannot make the showings the district court outlined in this case.", "\n\nDecember 7, 2012: The plaintiffs filed their response brief and cross-appeal. ", "According to Obsidian and Padrick, Cox failed to preserve objections to the jury instructions at trial. ", "The plaintiffs further argued that the trial court did not commit a plain error that warranted reversal despite Cox's failure to object, because \"First Amendment protection of false speech [is] the exception, not the rule.\" ", "Any error that did occur was harmless, plaintiffs claimed, because \"Cox's undisputed conduct establishes negligence and a reckless disregard for the truth or falsity of [her] statements.\"", "\n\nOn cross-appeal, plaintiffs argued that the district court erred in finding that certain of Cox's blog posts were non-actionable opinion and granting Cox summary judgment on those blog posts. ", "Plaintiffs noted that these posts, which purported to be \"Truthfully Posted,\" asserted that the plaintiffs had committed numerous crimes, including fraud, bribery, money laundering, and possibly hiring a hit man. ", "According to the plaintiffs, \"[t]here is nothing figurative or hyperbolic about these accusations,\" and it \"is not necessarily a reasonable assumption\" that \"reasonable readers will view blogs as inherently less reliable than other sources of information.\" ", "Thus, they argued, the trial court should have left the question of whether these posts contained opinions to the jury.", "\n\nFebruary 4, 2013: Cox replied, arguing that, even under plain error review, the judgment below must be reversed because: Gertz applies to all public speakers; Cox spoke on matters of public concern; Gertz applies even to speech on matters of private concern; and Padrick was a public official for purposes of the Sullivan analysis. ", "She also asserted these arguments were preserved for review because the trial court was \"aware of Cox's position that she was entitled to First Amendment protections\" and had rejected her objection earlier in the trial. ", "Additionally, Cox argued that the district court correctly held that the other blog posts at issue were not libelous. ", "Cox conceded that Internet speech \"is not categorically immune from defamation liability,\" but, based on the context of the statements at issue, Cox claimed, \"even the statements that might in isolation seem like factual assertions would be seen by reasonable readers as opinions.\"", "\n\nJanuary 17, 2014: The Ninth Circuit issued its opinion. ", "The court held that \"liability for a defamatory blog post involving a matter of public concern cannot be imposed without proof of fault and actual damages.\"", "\n\nThe court, reviewing the judgment de novo, concluded that Gertz's protection for defendants in private defamation actions is not limited to institutional media defendants; the court held that a \"First Amendment distinction between the institutional press and other speakers is unworkable\" and constitutional protections cannot turn on the identity of the speaker-regardless of whether \"the defendant was a trained journalist, formerly affiliated with traditional news entities, engaged in conflict-of-interest disclosure, went beyond just assembling others' writings, or tried to get both sides of a story.\" ", "The court noted that the Supreme Court has \"repeatedly refused in non-defamation contexts to accord greater First Amendment protection to the institutional media than to other speakers,\" and that every other circuit to consider the question has found that Gertz applied broadly to non-institutional speakers.", "\n\nThe court did not decide whether Gertz is limited to speech involving matters of public concern, because it found that Cox's statements addressed such issues. ", "The court stated that \"[p]ublic allegations that someone is involved in crime generally are speech on a matter of public concern,\" and the allegations in this case \"raised questions about whether [defendants] were failing to protect the defrauded investors because they were in league with their original clients.\" ", "This allegation was not merely a matter of private concern because it was not \"solely in the individual interest of the speaker and its specific business audience,\" was published at large, and was not \"like advertising\" and therefore \"unlikely to be deterred by incidental state regulation.\"", "\n\nThe court refused to apply Sullivan's actual malice standard, however, holding that bankruptcy trustees are not \"tantamount to public officials.\"", "\n\nOn the plaintiffs' cross-appeal, the court affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment on the other blog posts at issue in the original suit. ", "The court found that the \"general tenor of Cox's blog posts negates the impression that she was asserting objective facts,\" and that the name of the website-obsidianfinancesucks.com-\"leads ‘the reader of the statements [to be] predisposed to view [the blog posts] with a certain amount of skepticism.'\" ", "The court also relied on the fact that Cox's stream of consciousness-like sentences indicated that they were expressions of \"feelings rather than assertions of fact.\" ", "Cox's \"consistent use of extreme language,\" including her assertion that one of the plaintiffs had hired a hit man to kill her, also weighed in favor of finding that the blog posts did not assert facts. ", "Finally, the court held that the statements at issue were not \"sufficiently factual to be proved true or false\" because they were published on a \"non-professional website containing consistently hyperbolic language.\"", "\n\nThe court remanded the case to the district court to conduct a new trial on the single post still at issue in compliance with Gertz, stating that the district court must instruct the jury that it cannot find Cox liable for defamation unless it finds that she acted negligently and that it cannot award presumed damages unless it finds that Cox acted with actual malice.", "\n\nWe are looking for contributing authors with expertise in media law, intellectual property, First Amendment, and other related fields to join us as guest bloggers.

", "We propose to transition to independence the research infrastructure developed during previous COBRE funding. ", "Our COBRE funded Center for Molecular Medicine has had a number of successes. ", "During the previous funding period 30 junior faculty from 12 different departments and centers were funded as COBRE project or pilot grant PIs. ", "These mentored faculty received 27 NIH ROI grants, 11 other NIH grants, and 41 other peer-reviewed extramural grants. ", "The COBRE-supported junior faculty published more than 400 research papers. ", "These and other successes can in large part be attributed to a strong mentoring program, excellent institutional support, and the availability of the scientific cores associated with the Center. ", "For this application, we propose to transition the Center for Molecular Medicine and its three scientific cores to independence of NIH/NIGMS support and to enhance and upgrade core technologies.

", "However, in the case of FeGaB, the addition of boron to reduce the linewidth is responsible for the diminished magnetostrictive effect. ", "The combination of large magnetostriction and low damping in our epitaxial thin films is very promising for applications in microwave frequency communications devices and concepts for logical processing using spinwaves.", "\n\nThe modifications of the resonance linewidth with applied strain are due to an increase in the extrinsic damping, likely caused by inhomogeneous strain, while the damping parameter, α remains constant. ", "By scaling down the device to micron or submicron size, such inhomogeneities should be negated, reducing the extrinsic damping parameter further. ", "In addition, reducing the size of the piezoelectric transducer to the micron range, or utilising single crystal piezoelectric chips such as those used in references \\[19\\] and \\[20\\], will allow large strains to be achieved by the application of only a few volts, thereby fully utilising the advantageous properties of our epitaxial ferromagnetic films to induce large shifts in the resonant frequency (Δf).

[ "In internal combustion engines, an engine crankshaft is the primary source of torsional load. ", "A crank gear is typically mounted on one end of the crankshaft for driving the engine gear train which includes the cam gear and camshaft among other gear driven elements. ", "Throughout operation of the engine, the torque applied to the crankshaft varies due to, for example, the periodic firing of the engine's cylinders, the engagement and disengagement of driven elements such as a transmission, and the starting, stopping and variations in the speed of rotation of the crankshaft. ", "These torque variations create torsional vibrations which may be transferred to the gear train of the engine often undesirably causing increased noise, premature engine wear and thus reduced gear life and possibly engine failure. ", "In addition, since the engine drive gear train is used to drive engine components which are critical to proper engine operation, torsional vibrations transmitted through the gear train may adversely affect engine operation, such as the accuracy of fuel injection timing.", "\nMany torsional variation absorbing or damping devices have been developed and used in different locations throughout an engine. ", "It is well known to use a damper connected to one end of the crankshaft so as to rotate with the shaft for damping torsional vibrations generated by the crankshaft. ", "Many of these dampers are tuned to approximately the first torsional natural frequency of the crankshaft to provide optimum damping at the natural frequency. ", "Untuned dampers, such as viscous dampers, have an effect at all frequencies, but they provide the greatest reduction in crank torsional vibrations at the crank natural frequency. ", "When the engine operating conditions, i.e. firing frequency or a harmonic of firing frequency, coincides with the natural frequency of the crankshaft, a resonance effect may be created which increases the amplitude of the torsional vibrations thus increasing the likelihood of damage to the crankshaft and other engine components and gears driven by the crankshaft. ", "For example, U.S. Pat. ", "Nos. ", "1,913,803; 2,926,546; 4,172,510 and 5,188,002; French Patent No. ", "1,049,924; German Ref.

", "For example, U.S. Pat. ", "No. ", "5,017,178 discloses a resilient coupling apparatus for connecting a ring gear to a camshaft. ", "The coupling includes sets of spring-biased pistons spaced circumferentially around a plate member and mounted in respective bores.

BACKGROUND AND FACTS\n\nThis case concerns a claim by Plaintiff, New Lenox Industries (\"NLI\") against Defendant, Charles Fenton (\"Fenton\") and Defendant Airbelt Systems, LLC (\"Airbelt\"), alleging that Fenton, acting through, AirBelt, disclosed and licensed NLI's confidential and proprietary information to third parties concerning NLI's cold gas airbag inflation mechanism technology. ", "Plaintiff's complaint purports to allege causes of action for breach of a confidentiality agreement, fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets, civil theft, unjust enrichment and wrongful assignment of patents.", "\nA review of the allegations in the complaint, and of the declarations and depositions filed of record, disclose the following details. ", "NLI is a Florida corporation that develops and owns technology, which inflates airbags used in vehicles.[3] Fenton, a Utah resident,[4] worked as an airbag industry consultant and later formed AirBelt, a closely held California limited liability company, with Lawrence Schultz (\"Schultz\").[5] Airbelt developed, marketed and patented its own air bag technology.[6]\nAccording to the allegations in NLI's Complaint, a third party, which was considering investing in NLI, retained Fenton to evaluate and audit NLI's airbag technology at NLI's Dunellon, Florida office.[7] Before the evaluation, on January 24, 1995, Fenton entered into a confidentiality agreement (the \"Agreement\") with NLI agreeing not to use or disclose NLI's confidential information for three years.[8] According to NLI, at that time, NLI's airbag technology was not known in the airbag or automotive industries and no one else had held or had applied for a patent covering the technology.[9] NLI alleges that it was the first company to develop a mechanism to properly inflate a cold gas airbag — the micro-detonator.[10]\nDuring the evaluation of NLI's technology, NLI disclosed to Fenton its micro-detonator drawings and technology. ", "Additionally, NLI disclosed to Fenton its newer technology that created a less explosive charge and enhanced the directional shock wave of an airbag.[11] In a letter dated February 12, 1995, NLI emphasized to Fenton the importance of keeping the disclosed proprietary information confidential.[12]\nFollowing the evaluation, Fenton wrote a letter on January 31, 1995 to NLI stating that NLI needed 24 to 30 months of development before it was ready to market its airbag technology.[13] Fenton also sent a negative report regarding NLI's airbag technology to the third party who had retained him, and after receiving the negative report, the third party did not invest in NLI.[14]\n*900 Thereafter, Fenton and Schultz created the company AirBelt in October of 1995, and after its creation Fenton served as President.[15] Airbelt developed and patented a spool valve to control the explosive airflow in the cold gas airbag inflation system.[16] To market the spool valve technology on behalf of Airbelt, Fenton attended two airbag technology conferences in Florida. ", "There, Fenton passed out literature detailing Airbelt's spool valve technology, and eventually, Airbelt entered into a license with one of the manufacturers Fenton had contacted at the Florida conferences.[17]\nPlaintiff's theory of the case is that Fenton, in the guise of an industry consultant, stole NLI's proprietary technology. ", "Then, according to Plaintiff, Fenton formed Airbelt for the purpose of developing and patenting similar technology based on the stolen information, and then he marketed the technology to third parties.", "\nIn their Motion to Dismiss, Defendants argue that Plaintiff's Complaint should be dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction over the Defendants. ", "Defendants also allege that each cause of action in Plaintiff's Complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. ", "Specifically, Defendants argue that: (1) the claim for breach of contract is barred by the statute of limitations; (2) the claim for fraud is barred by the economic loss rule and/or preempted by Florida's Uniform Trade Secrets Act (\"FUTSA\"); (3) the claim for trade secret misappropriation is barred by the economic loss rule and/or fails to allege what Plaintiff sought to protect and what Defendants are accused of misappropriating; (4) the claim for civil theft does not apply to trade secret misappropriation; (5) the claim for unjust enrichment is preempted by FUTSA; and (5) the assignment of patents claim is not recognized in Florida and/or lacks an equitable remedy.", "\n\nII. ", "STANDARD OF REVIEW\n\nIn determining the propriety of granting a motion to dismiss, a court must accept all the factual allegations in the complaint as true and evaluate the inferences derived from the facts in the light most favorable to the plaintiff.[18] In passing on a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6), the Court is mindful that \"[d]ismissal of a claim on the basis of barebones pleadings is a precarious disposition with a high mortality rate.", "\"[19] A complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim unless it appears \"beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim which would entitle him to relief.", "\"[20] The threshold of sufficiency that a complaint must meet to survive a motion to dismiss is exceedingly low.[21]\n\nIII. ", "DISCUSSION\n\nA. Personal Jurisdiction\nA court must address a challenge to its exercise of personal jurisdiction before *901 looking at the other claims in a motion to dismiss.[22] The plaintiff has the burden of initially establishing a prima facie case of personal jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant. \"", "A prima facie case is established if the plaintiff presents sufficient evidence to defeat a motion for a directed verdict.", "\"[23] The district court accepts the facts alleged by the plaintiff as true as long as they do not conflict with the defendant's affidavits.[24] Where the pleadings and supporting documents are in conflict, the court must construe all reasonable inferences in favor of the plaintiff. ", "However, the plaintiff must provide additional support for his claim of personal jurisdiction where the defendant has made a strong argument against such jurisdiction.[25]\nIn the instant case, Plaintiff has made the requisite prima facie showing in the Complaint, and Plaintiff has offered additional support through Plaintiffs Opposition to Motion to Dismiss (Docs. ", "15 and 45) and accompanying depositions and declarations.", "\nA court must engage in a two-part analysis to determine whether it has personal jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant.[26] First, the court must determine if jurisdiction can be obtained over the defendants under Florida's long-arm statute. ", "Second, the court must then decide whether the nonresident defendants have sufficient \"minimum contacts\" with Florida to meet the constitutional requirements under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.[27] Even if jurisdiction is found under Florida's long-arm statute, a separate review of the facts must be undertaken by the Court to determine if the constitutional test is met.[28]\n1. ", "Florida's Long-Arm Statute\nBecause Florida law dictates the reach of the long-arm statute, this Court must interpret it in the same way that the Florida Supreme Court would.[29] Therefore, this Court must strictly construe the statute,[30] and the burden of proving the facts which make the statute applicable to the Defendants is on the Plaintiff.[31]\nFlorida's long arm statute, Florida Statute § 48.193(1), provides in relevant part:\n[a]ny person, whether or not a citizen or resident of this state, who personally or through an agent does any of the acts enumerated in this subsection thereby submits himself or herself . . . ", "to the jurisdiction of the courts of this state for any cause of action arising from doing any of the following acts:\n(a) Operating, conducting, engaging in, or carrying on a business or business venture in this state or having an office or agency in this state.", "\n\n*902 (b) Committing a tortious act within this state . . .", "\n* * *\n(g) Breaching a contract in this state by failing to perform acts required by the contract to be performed in this state . . . [", "32]\nTo meet the Florida long-arm, the Plaintiff must demonstrate that the \"connexity\" requirement has been met — a higher standard than that which is required by most other jurisdictions' long-arm statutes. \"", "To satisfy this requirement, \"the cause of action [must have] some [] connection to a specific act committed in Florida.", "\"[33]\nPlaintiffs claim they have satisfied Florida's long arm statute because Defendants \"conducted and engaged in business in this state, have committed a tort within this state, and have breached contractual duties to NLI in this state.", "\"[34] To establish that a defendant engaged in a general course of business activity in Florida, the activities the defendant carried out \"must be considered collectively and show a general course of business activity in the State for a pecuniary benefit.", "\"[35] Plaintiff asserts that Defendants engaged in a regular course of business activity in Florida as evidenced by the following four events: (1) Fenton evaluated NLI's technology in NLI's Dunnellon, Florida office; (2) Fenton communicated with NLI regarding a prospective position at NLI; (3) Fenton on behalf of Airbelt attended two trade shows in Florida and; (4) at one of the trade shows, Fenton, through Airbelt, secured a license to sell Airbelt's technology.", "\nThese acts do not establish that either Defendant engaged in a general course of business activity in Florida. ", "During his first trip to Florida, Fenton performed due diligence as a consultant at the behest of a third party. ", "His own consulting company did not direct business in Florida. ", "Moreover, merely discussing a discrete offer for employment is not sufficient to establish that Fenton was conducting a general course of business in Florida. ", "Additionally, there is no evidence that Defendants purposely directed their sales efforts to Florida by attending two airbag industry trade shows and fortuitously securing a client at one of the shows:[36]\nWith respect to whether Plaintiffs can establish the tortious activity prong of Florida's long arm statute, \"[t]he plaintiff must demonstrate that the nonresident defendant `committed a substantial aspect of the alleged tort in Florida' by establishing that the activities in Florida were essential to the success of the tort.", "\"[37] The tortious act does not have to take place in Florida, but \"a substantial aspect\" would include \"the situation in which a foreign tortious act causes injury within the forum.", "'\"[38]\nPlaintiffs allege that both Fenton and Airbelt committed a tort in Florida based upon the fact that Fenton traveled to Florida for the purpose of misappropriating NLI's confidential and proprietary information and then formed Airbelt to patent and market the stolen technology, *903 which Defendants accomplished during two airbag industry trade shows in Florida, essentially perpetuating the tort.", "\nDefendants suggest that they did not commit a tort in Florida because Airbelt's technologies that were sold are unrelated to NLI's technologies. ", "According to Airbelt, their \"spool, valve\" technology restricts the airflow unlike NLI's technology which initiates the airflow. ", "Moreover, relying upon Doe v. Thompson,[39] Defendants maintain that Fenton cannot be forced to defend a suit against him personally based on one meeting in Florida as a representative of a third party.", "\nAt this stage of the proceedings, the Court does not need to determine whether Airbelts' technologies are the same as NLI's or are derived from NLI's technologies because for purposes of determining whether Plaintiff has satisfied Florida's long arm statute the Court must accept the allegations in the Complaint as true and must evaluate the inferences derived from the facts in the light most favorable to the Plaintiff. ", "Simply stated, the Plaintiff has alleged that Fenton stole NLI's technology while in Florida performing his due diligence for a third party and then used the confidential technology to market a similar air bag product through Airbelt during at least two trade show visits to Florida.", "\nMoreover, Defendants' reliance on Doe is misplaced because Fenton is alleged to have performed due diligence in his capacity as an independent contractor, conducting his own consulting on behalf of the third party, and not as an officer or employee of a third party. ", "Accordingly, the Court concludes that Plaintiff sufficiently has established under Florida's tortious activity section of the long arm statute that both Defendants committed a substantial aspect of a tort in Florida.", "\nIn addition to satisfying the tortious activity prong of Florida's long arm statute, Plaintiffs have also established that Defendant Fenton falls within the reach of subsection (g) of the Florida long-arm statute, which recognizes personal jurisdiction over a defendant who breaches a contractual obligation existing in Florida. ", "During Fenton's first trip to Florida to perform due diligence, Fenton signed a nondisclosure agreement in which he agreed to keep NLI's airbag technology confidential. ", "Plaintiffs allege that Fenton breached this agreement, an agreement executed in Florida to protect NLI, a Florida corporation, from damage as a result of the unauthorized disclosure of its technology. ", "Accordingly, as to Defendant Fenton, the Plaintiffs have also established that the claimed conduct by the Defendant falls within the purview of section (g) of Florida's long arm statute.", "\n2. ", "Due Process\nHaving determined that the Plaintiffs have established that the claims against the Defendants fall within the purview of Florida's long-arm statute, the Court must next determine whether each individual defendant has sufficient minimum contacts with the forum to satisfy the due process requirements of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution so that the exercise of personal jurisdiction *904 does not offend \"traditional notions of fair place and substantial justice.", "\"[40]\nThe Eleventh Circuit utilizes a three-part test to determine whether there are sufficient minimum contacts:\n[f]irst, the contacts must be related to the plaintiffs cause of action . . . ", "Second, the contacts must involve some act by which the defendant purposefully avails itself of the privilege of conducting activities within the forum . . . ", "Third, the defendant's contacts with the forum must be such that the defendant should reasonably anticipate being haled into court there.[41]\nMinimum contacts may support two types of personal jurisdiction, general jurisdiction and specific jurisdiction. ", "Specific jurisdiction is involved where a party's contacts with the forum relate to the cause of action. ", "General jurisdiction, on the other hand, is where a party's contacts are unrelated to the litigation, but nonetheless are \"continuous and systematic,\" such as owning property, running a business, or maintaining a bank account.[42] In the instance case, the minimum contacts alleged by Plaintiff are directed to the cause of action and therefore relate to specific jurisdiction. ", "As such the first part of the test — that the contacts are related to the cause of action — is established.", "\nWith regard to the second and third parts of the test, Defendants argue that each part of the test cannot be met because of the Defendants' lack of contacts with the state of Florida. ", "Defendants highlight that they do not do business in Florida, have no office, agents, employees or property in Florida and do not advertise in Florida.", "\nPlaintiff counters that Defendant Fenton's contacts with Florida include his execution of the confidentiality agreement with NLI in Dunnellon, Florida, a letter sent to Florida regarding NLI's technology, subsequent communication with NLI about employment opportunities and two visits to Florida to attend trade shows. ", "Taken together, Plaintiff maintains that Fenton's contacts constitute purposeful availment.[43] Furthermore, Plaintiff argues that Defendant Airbelt is the alter ego of Fenton and thus meets the requisite for sufficient contacts through Fenton.", "\nA number of courts have recognized that where a defendant's tortious conduct is intentionally and purposefully directed at a resident of the forum, the minimum contacts requirement is met, and the defendant should anticipate being haled into court in that forum.[44] In this case, Plaintiff alleges that Defendants committed one or more intentional torts and breached a *905 contract against Plaintiff who was injured in Florida.", "\nAccordingly, under the three-part test enumerated above, because Defendants' contacts with Florida relate to Plaintiffs cause of action and the Defendants purposefully directed their conduct toward a Florida resident, the Defendants reasonably should have anticipated being haled into court here. ", "The Court therefore concludes that the assertion of personal jurisdiction over the Defendants passes constitutional muster.", "\nB. Service of Process on Airbelt\nIn addition to challenging personal jurisdiction, Defendant Airbelt also argues that the Court does not have personal jurisdiction over it because it was not properly served with process in this case.", "\nService of process in an action in federal court is detailed in Rule 4 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. ", "Pursuant to Rule 4(h)(1) service of process on a corporation may be perfected in the manner prescribed by state law or by serving an \"officer, a managing or general agent, or any other agent authorized by law to receive service of process . . .\"", "\nIn its original motion Airbelt alleged that service of process was ineffective because the summons and complaint was served upon an employee of a private mailbox location, where Larry Schultz maintained a private mailbox, rather than being served upon Schultz personally as Airbelt's registered agent.", "\nIn addition to attempting to serve Schultz, Plaintiff also served Charles Fenton, as the President of Airbelt. ", "Airbelt challenged this service as well, contending that Fenton is not an officer of Airbelt. ", "However, Fenton subsequently filed an Amended Declaration, admitting that Airbelt was formed as an \"LLC\" in California and that he is the President and a member of the LLC.[45] Consequently, any issue as to whether service of process was effective on Airbelt has been remedied. ", "Because Fenton is an officer of Airbelt service upon him on behalf of Airbelt is in compliance with the requirements of Rule 4 Fed. ", "R.Civ.", "P. and is in compliance with Florida Statute § 48.081(1). ", "Accordingly, Defendant Airbelt's motion to dismiss for improper service of process is due to be denied.", "\nC. Failure To State A Cause Of Action\n1. ", "Breach of Contract Against Defendant Fenton\nThe elements of a breach of contract action are: (1) a valid contract, (2) a material breach, and (3) damages.[46] Defendants do not dispute that the Complaint alleges these requisite elements. ", "Instead, Defendants argue that the statute of limitations has run on Plaintiffs breach of contract claim based upon the fact that the nondisclosure agreement executed by Fenton prohibited him from disclosing NLI's proprietary information for a period of three years.", "\nNLI alleges in its Complaint that it disclosed the confidential information to Fenton on or around January 24, 1995.[47] Consequently, Fenton argues that the information remained confidential only until January 24, 1998. ", "Thus, according to Fenton, Plaintiff was required to file the lawsuit no later than January 24, 2003, five years[48] after the last possible date *906 Fenton was prohibited from disclosing the confidential information.", "\nThe central problem with Defendant's argument at this point is that the Plaintiff has not alleged in the Complaint when Fenton disclosed the confidential information or when the Plaintiff was first damaged by the alleged breach. ", "It is axiomatic that under Florida law, a cause of action accrues, for statute of limitations purposes \"when the last element constituting the cause of action occurs.", "\"[49] Consequently, if the alleged damage to Plaintiff occurred within the five year period preceding April 28, 2006 (the date the complaint was filed in state court) the action would not be time barred. ", "Thus, the trigger date for the five year statute of limitations is not necessarily the last day of the three year nondisclosure period but rather the date when Plaintiff allegedly suffered damage as a result of the breach, which would be the date that the last element of the cause of action occurred.", "\nIn the instant case because it is not evident from the Complaint when Fenton disclosed the proprietary information or the date that Plaintiff contends it was damaged as a result of the alleged breach, the Court cannot conclude that the claim is time-barred.[50] The guiding rule is that a complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim unless it appears \"beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim which would entitle him to relief.", "\"[51] Accordingly, because Defendant cannot prove beyond doubt that Plaintiff can prove no set of facts to support a claim for breach of contract against Fenton, Defendant's motion to dismiss Count I of the Complaint is due to be denied.", "\n2. ", "Fraud In The Inducement Claim\nDefendants request the Court to dismiss Plaintiffs claim for fraud in the inducement in count II of the Complaint, contending that it is: (1) barred by the economic loss rule, and (2) preempted by the Florida Uniform Trade Secrets Act. (\"", "FUTSA\".)[52] The Court will address each of these arguments in turn.", "\nWith regard to the economic loss rule, Defendants argue that Plaintiff cannot bring a tort action where the only damages suffered are the \"economic losses\" that flow from a contractual breach.[53] Defendants contend that Plaintiffs \"allegation that `Fenton represented to Barnes that he would not make such a disclosure or use of this information' plainly relates to performance of the Agreement.", "\"[54] According to Defendants, failure to comply with that representation would only be breach of the Agreement and merit contractual remedies and thus not constitute an independent tort.", "\nThe economic loss rule is a judicially created doctrine which bars a tort action where a defendant has not committed a breach of duty apart from a breach of contract.[55] The economic loss rule bars *907 a plaintiff from bringing tort claims to recover purely economic damages from a breach of contract absent personal injury or property damages.[56]\nThe problem with Defendants argument is that they have incorrectly characterized the substance of Plaintiffs claim as one for misrepresentation relating to the performance of the duties under the contract rather than a claim for fraudulent inducement.", "\nA review of the complaint discloses that the claim in Count II is indeed one for fraudulent inducement and not a claim for fraud in the performance of the contract. ", "Specifically, Plaintiff alleges that Fenton fraudulently concealed the fact that he was a competitor of NLI, who had been attempting to develop a cold gas airbag inflation system, before entering into the Agreement.[57] Plaintiff claims that it would not have disclosed its proprietary information to Fenton had it known Fenton was a competitor. ", "Additionally, Plaintiff alleges that Fenton never intended to keep his promise not to use or disclose the proprietary information.[58] Under Florida law, \"a promise is actionable as fraud . . . ", "when the promisor had a positive intent not to perform his promise, or made the promise without a present intent to perform.", "\"[59] Thus, under either theory Plaintiff s claim alleges a valid cause of action for fraudulent inducement and a breach of duty separate from the duties imposed by the Agreement.", "\nThe Florida Supreme Court has recognized in its economic loss rule jurisprudence that fraud in the inducement is a recognized exception to the economic loss rule.[60] This exception was also recognized by the Florida Supreme Court in Indem. ", "Ins. ", "Co. of N.A., the case favorably cited by Defendants in support of their argument that the claim should be barred by the economic loss rule. ", "There, the Florida Supreme Court declined to apply the economic loss rule to bar a cause of action for professional neglect.[61] The court reasoned that \"the rule was primarily intended to limit actions in the product liability context.\" ", "Moreover, the court noted that intentional torts, such as fraud, that require an additional element of \"intent\" would remain separate from a contract action and are not barred by the economic loss rule.[62] Thus, where the claim, as here, alleges an intentional tort such as fraud the claim is viewed as separate from the contract action. ", "The mere fact that the damages sought in both counts are similar has no bearing on the separateness of the two claims.[63]\nAccordingly, because Plaintiffs claim as alleged in Count II of the Complaint is one for the separate tort of fraudulent inducement it is not barred by the economic loss rule and therefore Defendants' argument is without merit.", "\nDefendants alternatively argue that even if the fraudulent inducement claim is not barred by the economic loss rule, it is still subject to dismissal because it is preempted by FUTSA. ", "According to Defendants, Plaintiffs claim for fraudulent *908 inducement is identical to Plaintiffs claim for misappropriation of a trade secret and essentially is nothing more than an attempt to tack additional causes of action on to a trade secret misappropriation claim in order to avoid the reach of FUTSA.", "\nBy its own provisions FUTSA forecloses other tort actions or remedies. ", "FUTSA states in relevant part that it \"displace[s] conflicting tort, restitutory, and other law[s] of this state providing civil remedies for misappropriation of a trade secret.", "\"[64] Thus, as a general proposition other torts involving the same underlying factual allegations as a claim for trade secret misappropriation will be preempted by FUTSA.[65] In order to pursue claims for additional tort, causes of action where there are claims for misappropriation of a trade secret, there must be material distinctions between the allegations comprising the additional torts and the allegations supporting the FUTSA claim.[66]\nTherefore, the question the Court must resolve is whether the fraudulent inducement claim as alleged in Count II and the misappropriation of trade secret claim are factually distinct. ", "The Court concludes that the claims, as pled, are distinct. ", "The crux of Plaintiffs fraud in the inducement claim is that Fenton misled Plaintiff into believing that NLI's technology was being evaluated by an independent industry expert, rather than by a potential competitor, in order to obtain access to Plaintiffs confidential proprietary information. ", "In contrast, the gist of Plaintiffs misappropriation of trade secret claim under FUTSA is that Defendants disclosed the unlawfully obtained trade secrets to others in the airbag industry and utilized the information to compete with Plaintiff.", "\nThe Court therefore concludes that there are material differences between the fraudulent inducement claim and the FUTSA claim. ", "Accordingly, Count II of the Complaint is not preempted by FUTSA and as such Defendant's motion to dismiss Count II of the Complaint is due to be denied.", "\n3. ", "Claim For Misappropriation of Trade Secret\nDefendants request dismissal of count III of Plaintiffs complaint on the grounds that Plaintiff has failed to allege a claim for trade secret misappropriation because NLI has failed to allege what trade secrets were used or disclosed. ", "Additionally, Defendants argue that Plaintiffs claim for misappropriation of a trade secret is barred by the economic loss rule.", "\nAs an initial argument Defendants contend that the disclosure of the actual trade secret in the pleading is crucial to stating a claim[67] and that because Plaintiff has failed to \"identify what part of the alleged trade secret it is accusing Fenton of using or disclosing, or how he used or disclosed it,\" Count III of the Complaint should be dismissed.", "\nA review of the Complaint discloses that contrary to Defendant's argument, Plaintiff has sufficiently identified the trade secret, which allegedly was misappropriated. ", "In paragraphs 9 and 10 of the Complaint Plaintiff describes its proprietary airbag inflation system as one *909 which uses a micro-detonator with a scored diaphragm to open a helium filled, high pressure vessel, thereby inflating the air bag with helium. ", "Plaintiff states in the Complaint that this technology causes the canister holding the cold gas under pressure to open and deploy in the milliseconds required to properly fill the airbag. ", "The Court therefore concludes that Plaintiff has more than adequately identified the trade secrets it alleges were stolen.", "\nAlternatively, Defendants contend that because the alleged misappropriation arises from the Agreement, that the FUTSA claim is barred by the economic loss rule. ", "Defendants argue that the economic loss rule bars Plaintiff from bringing a claim for misappropriation of a trade secret because that claim is indistinguishable from the breach of contract claim. ", "In short, Defendants contend if any trade secrets were disclosed the obligation not to disclose the information was solely within the terms and scope of the Agreement and as such must be pursued through contractual remedies.", "\nDefendant's argument is misplaced because it is not supported by Florida law. ", "The Florida Supreme Court has unequivocally held that the economic loss rule does not bar statutory causes of action[68] The reason for this rule is that \"[C]ourts do not have the right to limit and, in essence, to abrogate . . . ", "the expanded remedies granted . . . ", "under [a] legislatively created scheme by allowing the judicially favored economic loss rule to override a legislative policy pronouncement and to eliminate the enforcement of those remedies.", "'\"[69] While there are no reported Florida cases specifically dealing with the application of the economic loss rule in a claim under FUTSA, in all other contexts involving statutory claims, Florida courts have consistently held that statutory causes of action are not limited by the economic loss rule.[70]\nAccordingly, because the economic loss does not limit the right to maintain statutory causes of action, Defendants' motion to dismiss Count III of the Complaint is due to be denied.", "\n4. ", "Claim For Civil Theft\nWithout citation to any supporting case law, Defendants argue that Plaintiff has failed to state a claim for civil theft in Count IV of the Complaint because Florida's civil theft statute, Fla. Stat. § ", "772.11, does not apply to the allegations in the Complaint. ", "According to Defendants, the legislature did not include in the civil theft statute the specific crime of \"trade secret, thefts and embezzlement\"[71] in the list of enumerated crimes for which a civil remedy applies. ", "Thus, Defendants contend the theft of a trade secret is not an enumerated crime for which the legislature has provided a civil remedy. ", "In the absence of such, Defendants surmise, there is no claim under the statute.", "\nA review of the history of the civil theft statute discloses that prior to its amendment in 1999, § 772.11 included § 812.081 as an enumerated crime for which a civil remedy applied.[72] The current version of *910 § 772.11 — which is applicable to this case — now includes in the list of enumerated crimes \"any violation of §§ . ", "812.012-812.037 or § 825.103(1)\" but it does not expressly list § 812.081, as one of the enumerated crimes.[73]\nPlaintiff correctly points out that although § 812.081 is not included in the current version of the statute, the enumerated list of crimes for which a civil remedy applies still lists the general theft statute, § 812.014. ", "Section 812.014 applies whenever a person \"knowingly obtains or uses, or endeavors to obtain or to use, the property of another with intent to, either temporarily or permanently . . . [", "d]eprive the other person of a right to the property or a benefit form the property [or] [a]ppropriate the property to his or her own use or to the use of any person not entitled to the use of the property.", "\"[74] Thus, while the civil theft statute might not include a specific listing for theft of trade secrets, it nonetheless continues to include the broader listing for crimes committed under the general theft statute.", "\nMoreover, there are a number of Florida cases both before and after the amendment, which have all consistently recognized that there is a cause of action for civil theft of trade secrets under Florida law.[75] Lastly, well after the amendment of the civil theft statute the Florida Supreme Court approved the 2005 Jury Instructions for the general theft statute, which expressly instructed juries regarding how to ascertain the \"value\" of trade secrets for purposes of the general theft statute.[76]\nAccordingly, for these reasons, the Court concludes that Plaintiff has stated a claim for civil theft in Count IV of the Complaint and therefore Defendants' motion to dismiss Count IV is due to be denied.", "\n5. ", "Unjust Enrichment\nDefendants move to dismiss the unjust enrichment claim in Count V of the Complaint on the grounds that it is preempted by FUTSA. ", "In its opposing memorandum Plaintiff states that \"It appears that Count V's claim for unjust enrichment is in fact preempted by FUTSA.\"[77] The Court agrees. ", "Because FUTSA expressly authorizes a plaintiff to recover the \"unjust enrichment caused by misappropriation\"[78] a claim for unjust enrichment is indistinguishable from the remedy under the statute and therefore is preempted. ", "Consequently, count V of the Complaint for unjust enrichment is due to be dismissed.", "\n5. ", "Assignment of Patents\nDefendants contend that count VI of the Complaint should be dismissed because Florida law does not provide a cause of action for \"Assignment of Patents.\" ", "Further, Defendants argue that if Plaintiff is really requesting the Court to impose a constructive trust, Plaintiff cannot pursue the equitable remedy of imposition of a *911 constructive trust because Plaintiff has an adequate remedy at law, and in any event, a constructive trust is merely a remedy and not a cause of action and should not be included separately in a count of the Complaint.", "\nWhile Defendants are correct that the equitable remedy of imposition of a constructive trust normally is not available where there exists adequate remedies at law,[79] the request for an assignment of patents is an entirely different remedy from the equitable remedy of constructive trust. ", "In cases involving the theft of intellectual property rights, such as trade secrets, a number of courts have ordered as a remedy an assignment of patents to the party from who confidential information was misappropriated when the other party secured a patent based upon unlawfully obtained confidential information.[80]\nTherefore, while the claim for assignment of patents might better be characterized as an available remedy in a trade secret theft case, the Court does not conclude that this is a sufficient reason to dismiss the claim as a stand alone count in the Complaint. ", "Accordingly, Defendants' motion to dismiss Count VI of the Complaint is due to be denied.", "\nD. Motion For More Definite Statement\nLastly, Defendants alternatively request that in the event the Court does not dismiss Plaintiffs Complaint, that the Plaintiff be required to file a more definite statement.", "\nRule 12(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure allows a party to move for a more definite statement before responding to the pleading when that pleading \"is so vague or ambiguous that a party cannot reasonably be required to frame a responsive pleading[.]\"[81] The motion \"attacks unintelligibility in a pleading, not simply mere lack of detail.", "\"[82]\nSuffice it to say, that the Complaint sufficiently advises the Defendants of the substance and the nature of the claims in each of the counts. ", "Because the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provide for notice pleading it is the general view that \"[m]otions for more definite statement are disfavored in light of the liberal discovery practices.", "\"[83] Therefore, to the extent that the Defendants need to obtain additional information to defend themselves at trial discovery is the avenue to pursue, and not a motion for a more definite statement.[84] Accordingly, the Defendants' alternative request for a more definite statement is also due to be denied.", "\n\nIV.

", "The nodC gene analysis showed that the strains were phylogenetically divergent to the Bradyrhizobium symbiovars defined to date, and represented two new symbiovars. ", "Plant infection analysis revealed that the three strains showed moderate host range and symbiotic specificities. ", "Based on their symbiotic characteristics, we propose that the three strains isolated from Lupinus micranthus nodules belong to two new symbiovars, with the first denominated lupini within the two species Bradyrhizobium valentinum (type strain LmiM2) and B. retamae (type strain LmiH4), and the second denominated mediterranense within the species P. sophorae (type strain LmiT21)." ]

[ "NFL Quarterback Club 98\n\nNFL Quarterback Club '98 is a football video game, released on October 24, 1997. ", "It was developed by Iguana Entertainment and published by Acclaim Entertainment under their Acclaim Sports banner for the Nintendo 64. ", "It was the first football game announced for the Nintendo 64.", "\n\nFeatures \nThere are two kinds of Simulation modes, Custom and Historic. ", "Custom Simulation mode allows one to create one's own scenario, including both teams' scores, who possesses the ball, how much time is left, and where the team with possession of the ball is on the field. ", "Historic Simulation mode contains fifty different scenarios, based on games that happened in history, and a certain task is to be accomplished, often to \"change history\" and win with the team that lost the game, but sometimes to replicate a team's victory.", "\n\nAnother feature found in the game allows one to create a player. ", "The game allows one to enter information such as the player's position, name, jersey number, height, weight, dominant hand, skin color, and age. ", "After one fills out this information, he or she is taken to a stat customization screen where one can edit a player's stats, such as accuracy and range (for kickers and quarterbacks), catching abilities, agility, speed, and strength (all for numerous players). ", "After a player is created, he is put into Free Agency, where a player must be signed by a team.", "\n\nPlayers can also create a team, using color schemes of the 30 NFL teams found in the game. ", "Teams' playbooks, stadiums, and initials (shown next to a team's score during gameplay) can be edited, and a team may contain up to 55 players. ", "Players can be put onto any of the 30 teams already in the game, as well as Free Agents (including created players), and can be substituted into any position.", "\n\nIn addition to the 30 pro teams in the game, there were also four hidden teams, accessed by entering a cheat code. ", "Two teams, AFC and NFC, are the Pro Bowl teams from 1997. ", "The other two teams are based on Iguana Entertainment and Acclaim, the developer and publisher of the game respectively, and feature then-employees as members of the team. ", "Iguana Entertainment and Acclaim's teams are the two best teams statistically in the game.", "\n\nThere is a season mode where players can select a team and play through their 1997 schedule. ", "There is also a playoff mode where a player can select a team and try to guide them through the playoffs. ", "Quarterback Club '98 also features a Quarterback Profile feature. ", "This feature contains 30 quarterbacks, one from each team, and their college and pro football achievements in encyclopedic format.", "\n\nThe game's commentary was done by Marv Albert. ", "Brett Favre was the chief spokesperson for the game.", "\n\nDevelopment\nAcclaim brought the NFL Quarterback series into the 64-bit age using technology they had been working on for several years for Turok: Dinosaur Hunter. ", "With this, they were able to keep the game running at 30fps in high-resolution (640 x 480), something that hadn't yet been done in the U.S. They obtained the full NFL license, including all the teams, stadiums and rosters. ", "Their competitor for the N64 that year, Electronic Arts' Madden Football 64 was not able to get the NFL license in time for the game's release as Acclaim had acquired all the licenses for that year, but the game did feature real player names as it did get a license from the league's players' association that year. ", "As a result, NFL Quarterback Club 98 is the only football video game for the Nintendo 64 to be fully licensed by the NFL in 1997.", "\n\nAdrian Murrell served as the actor for the game's motion capture. ", "A number of the plays in the team playbooks were designed by Brett Favre.", "\n\nA version of the game was in development for the Sega Saturn, but was cancelled as part of Acclaim's withdrawal of support for that console.", "\n\nReception\nNFL Quarterback Club '98 has received mixed scores from reviewers. ", "GameSpot gave it a 5.4 out of 10, noting its graphics as being advanced for the time, but heavily criticizing the passing physics of the game, the sound, and the AI intelligence. ", "IGN gave it the higher score of 7.8/10, also praising the graphics but giving the gameplay, sound, and lasting appeal mediocre scores. ", "It has a 76% on GameRankings.", "\n\nNext Generation reviewed the Nintendo 64 version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that \"In the end, serious football fans may want to stick with Quarterback Club 64 for its realism, but the slow play is likely to drive gamers crazy.\"", "\n\nOther titles \nNFL Quarterback Club '99\nNFL Quarterback Club 2000\nNFL QB Club 2001\nNFL Quarterback Club 2002\n\nReferences \n\nCategory:1997 video games\nCategory:Acclaim Entertainment games\nCategory:Cancelled Sega Saturn games\nCategory:Nintendo 64 games\nCategory:Nintendo 64-only games\nCategory:NFL Quarterback Club video games\nCategory:Video games developed in the United States" ]

", "We don’t know whether it’s correct or not but it is an issue we are examining.”", "\n\n‘Understated panic’\n\n“(The photo) sort of solidifies the whole idea that the Mugabe family is behind the project,” said Gideon Chitanga, an analyst with the Johannesburg-based regional think-tank Political Economy Southern Africa, describing Mugabe’s meeting with Mutinhiri as “very cordial”.", "\n\nOther analysts said that Mnangagwa had every reason to be concerned by Mugabe’s sudden re-emergence on the political scene.", "\n\n“There is an understated panic – especially within Zanu-PF,” said Zimbabwean political analyst Brian Kagoro who added that the ruling party had already struggled to formulate a response to the opposition following the death of its figurehead Morgan Tsvangirai in February.", "\n\n“It would have been a much easier task to concentrate on infiltrating the (opposition) – but now they have to deal with uncertainty as to who is with them,” said Brian Kagoro, a director of the UHAI Africa think-tank.", "\n\nMugabe was forced to quit when the military briefly took power in November and Zanu-PF lawmakers launched impeachment proceedings against their once beloved leader. ", "Since his dramatic reversal of fortune, he has largely appeared to stay out of public life.", "\n\nThe military moved against Mugabe, 94, after he sacked his then-deputy and heir-apparent Mnangwga apparently fearing the nonagenarian was grooming his wife Grace to succeed him as president.", "\n\nThe former first lady had cultivated her own factional support base within Zanu-PF known as “G-40” that was seen as hostile to the security establishment.", "\n\n“There is a fight for legitimacy among the retired military supremos,” said Kagoro, who suggested that Mugabe was behaving with “grand malice” over his treatment.", "\n\n‘No interference by the army’\n\nThe NPF claims to have many members “who are outraged by the unconstitutional and humiliating manner in which president Mugabe was criminally ousted from the leadership of both Zanu-PF and the country”.", "\n\nDespite the NPF’s emergence and the ensuing trepidation at the top of Zanu-PF, the pretender party is unlikely to make significant inroads at the polls.", "\n\n“They are trying to create the impression that Mugabe has a lot of residual support,” said Derek Matyszak, a independent Zimbabwean political analyst. “", "But I don’t think they are going anywhere.", "\n\n“And though he is unaccustomed to not exercising his bit of power, I can’t see him going full on into the political field because he is dependent on Mnangagwa to have a comfortable retirement.”", "\n\nMutinhiri himself is seen as a marginal figure without an established regional or ethnic base that would be essential to dent Zanu-PF’s monolithic grip on power.", "\n\nChitanga, the analyst, said it was unfortunate that Mugabe appeared to be “getting entangled in opposition politics”.", "\n\n“The normal thing would have been for him to retire quietly,” he said.", "\n\nThe NPF has quoted Mugabe as saying that “people are free to belong to parties of their choice”.", "\n\nIt also vowed to ensure “there is no interference by the army, or those that would want to resort to violence as a means of getting votes”.", "\n\nIt is an irony that will not be lost on voters that elections held under Mugabe were marred by violence and voter intimidation – alongside allegations of electoral fraud." ]
