    Mar. 2009] Collins v. State 61 and accordingly, statute that defined substantial bodily harm as ‘‘prolonged physical pain’’ provided sufficient notice of prohibited conduct and was not so lacking in specific standards as to allow arbitrary or discriminatory en- forcement and, thus, was not unconstitutionally vague. NRS 0.060(2). 2. CRIMINAL LAW . The constitutionality of a statute is a question of law that the supreme court reviews de novo. 3. CONSTITUTIONAL LAW . Statutes are presumed to be valid, and the challenger bears the burden of showing that a statute is unconstitutional; and in order to meet that bur- den, the challenger must make a clear showing of invalidity. 4. CRIMINAL LAW . A statute is deemed to be unconstitutionally vague if it (1) fails to pro- vide notice sufficient to enable persons of ordinary intelligence to under- stand what conduct is prohibited and (2) lacks specific standards, thereby encouraging, authorizing, or even failing to prevent arbitrary and discrim- inatory enforcement. 5. CRIMINAL LAW . The first prong of the vagueness test is designed to provide notice of conduct that is prohibited under the statute so that ordinary citizens can con- form their conduct to comport with the law; however, notice is insufficient if the statute is so imprecise, and vagueness so permeates its text, that per- sons of ordinary intelligence cannot understand what conduct is prohibited. 6. CRIMINAL LAW . When drafting statutes, the Legislature is not required to exercise ab- solute precision, but, at a minimum, it must draft statutes that delineate the boundaries of prohibited conduct. 7. CRIMINAL LAW . In instances where the Legislature does not define each term it uses in a statute, the statute will not be deemed unconstitutional if the term has a well-settled and ordinarily understood meaning.

  • Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping
    POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING (2016) ● Rated R for some graphic nudity, language throughout, sexual content and drug use ● N/A million dollar budget ● 1 hour and 27 minutes ● Directed by Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone ​ ​ ​ ● Co­producer Judd Apatow QUICK THOUGHTS ● Phil Svitek ● Demetri Panos ● Marisa Serafini ● Stephanie Wenger DEVELOPMENT ● Based Bieber documentary and the One Direction Documentary ● Andy Samberg and Judd Apatow's first collaboration ● Inspiration for the film: “We’d been talking about this new genre of movie, the ​ popumentary, if you will. It’s a glossier version of a rock documentary and all these pop ​ bands have had them. They’re sort of like borderline propaganda from their own camp — just, like, fluffy documentaries that track their tours and lives and are really bubbly and awesome to look at and fun to watch.” – Andy Samberg ● Samberg gives a bit of insight into the process of creating this story: “As we were writing Popstar, we took inspiration for specific jokes and scenes from a lot of the ​ documentaries we watched. For example, Conner’s magical wardrobe change on stage plays homage to Katy Perry, and Conner drumming as a baby is a nod to Justin Bieber.” ● The guys admit they were inspired by the likes of the early documentary films of such superstars as Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Katy Perry. “We had talked about this concept for 10 years and then with the advent of so many documentaries on pop stars, it focused us on the story,” offers Samberg. “Akiva had a casual meeting with Judd, talking about various projects, and Judd said we should definitely make a mockumentary based on all the documentaries in the last few years about pop stars.” WRITING ● Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone wrote it ● In the writing process of this, we watched a ton of pop documentaries," said Taccone.

  • In the Supreme Court of the State of Nevada Darren Roy
    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA DARREN ROY MACK, No. 51143 Appellant, VS. FILED THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent. JUN 2 2 2010 'ZEMAN E ORDER OF AFFIRMANCE COURT DEPUTY C ERK This is an appeal from a judgment of conviction, pursuant to a guilty plea, to first-degree murder, and, pursuant to an Alford plea, to attempted murder with the use of a deadly weapon. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas W. Herndon, Judge. On appeal, appellant Darren Mack raises two issues. He first contends that the district court abused its discretion when it denied his presentence motion to withdraw his guilty pleas after holding a hearing on the matter. In this regard, Mack argues that his pleas were not knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently entered with a full understanding of the nature and consequences of the pleas because neither the court nor his counsel informed him of all of the elements of the lesser-included offenses or the lesser penalties for those offenses. Second, Mack contends that the district court improperly involved itself in his plea negotiations, thereby violating the bright-line rule established in Cripps v. State, 122 Nev. 764, 137 P.3d 1187 (2006). We conclude that both of these contentions lack merit. Motion to withdraw the guilty plea "A district court may, in its discretion, grant a defendant's [presentence] motion to withdraw a guilty plea for any 'substantial reason' if it is 'fair and just."

  • ISPA Response to RIPA Amends
    IP and Growth Review Call for Evidence – ISPA Response ISPA The Internet Services Providers‟ Association (ISPA) UK is the trade association for companies involved in the provision of Internet Services in the UK. ISPA was founded in 1995, and seeks to actively represent and promote the interests of businesses involved in all aspects of the UK Internet industry. ISPA‟s membership includes small, medium and large Internet Service Providers (ISPs), access providers, content providers, web design and hosting companies and a variety of other organisations. ISPA currently has over 210 members, representing more than 98% of the UK Internet access market by volume. ISPA was a founding member of EuroISPA, the European Internet Service Providers‟ Association based in Brussels, which is the largest umbrella organisation of ISPs globally. Introduction ISPA welcomes the opportunity to respond to this review. Intellectual property is a cornerstone of a thriving economy, both digital and non-digital. However, we are encouraged by the Review‟s focus on potential barriers to growth and innovation caused by the framework. As acknowledged in the review‟s introduction, this is the latest in a long line of reviews into intellectual property, following on from the Digital Britain Report and the Copyright Strategy in October 2009. There has also been a great deal of work undertaken by other organisations, such as SABIP and WIPO, so we hope to see something different and tangible come from this review. We are aware that the review is seeking evidence to help inform judgment on the framework and recommendations. As a trade association representing a variety of different companies who offer Internet services, from Internet access to content and hosting, we have tried to provide examples where possible.
