Is it the board's opinion that Eliot Brinton acted on Amarin's complete behalf during the meeting on 10/16/13?
I'd be interested in seeing it.
Z-What is the point of giving them another extension? What's in it for Amarin?
Getting tougher to argue with the detractors. Hell, even if the legal basis backs Amarin, pushing out to infinity makes it a moot point. Would be nice to get anything but milk-toast questions and answers on CC but that is apparently too much to ask for as well. If we have the legal grounds everyone thinks, commenting to some extend on these proceedings to all of us that are bankrolling their existence should be a reasonable request.
We have been more than patient to date. This is getting very old...
My point exactly. Who cares where the various booths are. It doesn't matter as related to the stock price, acquisition or anything material to our investment.
Board, is the premise that the individuals that will be working these booths are the same parties that would be talking about an acquisition? Possible I guess but I would think highly unlikely, no? If not, does it matter where the various company booth's are in relation to one another?
If they called to discuss your investment strategy regarding having such a large percentage of your holdings in one stock and the value of diversification, then yes, mine has been calling me about this for about 18 month:)
Just did as you recommended. Good advice. For others, click on his name and an ignore button will be on the left side on the next screen.
You should be willing to give him 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 odds then…
I think it is more a matter of the market betting on BP and their corale of attorneys and political influences maintaining the upper hand. If we think they are going to go quietly in this very lucrative drug arena, we are mistaken. Conversations are being held behind closed doors about Vascepa. I choose to bet on Amarin, hedge funds apparently do not.
You are aware that the stock price was at that $.88 level at that time aren't you?
Give us a quick summary
Bought another 5k at $1.83 yesterday.
Will do BB
2-3 tweets a day for 40 days to start by all is a good start. Any advice on how to maximize exposure?
Keep to the facts but take the fight to their front door. Have tried to go thru FDA and Ombudsman to no avail. Name names and make them uncomfortable but stay honest. #personalaccountability

You are not alone. I got rid of about 35% of my holding today. Its gone up another $.20 from where I sold so I am a bit nervous about leaving money on the table but it just feels like it has gone too far too quickly. (I know the coutner to that is that it has been pushed down a lot more than it has rebounded lately) If i'm wrong, I still have the cash and the 65% position after getting back to a price a few cents less than my combined basis. Thoughts? (Looking for someone to make me feel a bit more at ease going into the weekend... :)
Question for the board. I have a father that is 79 years old, has had Quadruple bi-pass about 17 years and 2 angios. His heart capacity is around 35-40% and thus he is very limited by his lack of oxygen. We thought he had a small stroke recently as his memory is going and his speech is affected as he can't remember certain words he wants to say. MRI last week came back negative for any signs of a stroke. Would it be too simplistic to ask if Vascepa benefit him in any way? Thanks
HD,unless your last comment is an inside joke, way to keep it classy... I have no dog in this fight. Please ask yourself, has your influence over the past week made this board better or worse?

How is it not medical malpractice for pharmacists to advise patients to change their prescription to a drug that raises bad cholesterol if bad results occur as a result?
I just sent another email to Ms. Sipes and Ms. Hayes at the FDA as well as my two local lawmakers. Does not seem like the squeeky wheel is getting the grease but I will continue to try.
What type of weekly percentage increase does 650k additional scrips work out to be for new and renewal?

BB, can you send me a PM with a good email address for you? I need some assistance on an information request from the staff of the congress members that I have been talking with. Thanks
Spoke with Rep Smith's office last week and will be talking with them again on Wed or Thursday. Have encouraged them to speak with Sen Murray's office directly as well.
I hope to get a face to face at Senator Patty Murray's office out here in WA next week. Not with her but with a staffer to start. She is on the HELP Committee. Any thoughts on best item to focus on initially that this committee would care most about?
Part of a contract involves consideration. Consideration was given by Amarin by spending the money on the studies to hold up their end if the bargain. The FDA would thus be required to do the same, no?
Thanks BB. Will take a look a little later and get back with any questions that I may have.
BB:
I have a call scheduled for tomorrow with one of the aids for Rep. Adam Smith (my local Rep in Tacoma, WA). I have sent the EPAinitiative website link as well as your most recent letter that I tweaked to personalize for me. Can you give me a handful of succinct talking points that I should focus on during my call with this aid? Thanks

Sad to say that I have 102,000 shared at around $4.00 basis.
What timing do you think we are looking at for reinstatement?
I plan to go see my Representative (Adam Smith S. Seattle Region) this week when he has his hours at our local library). I sent 3 emails laying out the general complaint and directing them to the epa website before getting a letter back from him on Feb 20th that discussed the FDA but was generally a form letter in nature.
I would love to have additional information to use for concise talking points as I am not well educated enough in order to discuss as an expert off the top of my head conversationally. Not sure how to best proceed. It seems like we need a handful of Senators/Representativss that this resonates with in order to get a critical mass with our elected officials in order for the cause to be taken seriously from that avenue. Feel free to send reply to me in private and we can exchange email or cell phone info if you wish.
The more light we can shine on this issue the greater chance we have of finding a party willing to shine some light to expose these cockroaches and either take legal action or send them running.
Not completely on topic to your post but I have been thinking over the past few days that contacting parties at the SEC as well as the FDA my be applicable as the FDA communication has yet to produce fruit and there seems to be a very high connection between these FDA parties and financial gain from "outside" parties within Wall Street.
ah Maryland, that's right... Has anyone given any thought to what something like this would look like? Prior communication with the media would be necessary in order to ensure the most bang for our buck. However, any thoughts on whether this would be an effective use of our time and resources?
It would seem that we have reached the point of forced accountability and congressional oversight. The parties and agencies that have been put in place to ensure these types of actions are eliminated have clearly not done their jobs. From inconsistent handling of similar situations with other drugs to simple actions/rulings Not occuring within well defined mandatory timelines, the list continues to grow. In the event that congressional involvement cannot be obtained, public gatherings that attract media attention in NJ and WA D.C. may be the next step. Based upon the value of my total investment in this stock, i am willing to travel.
If you are referring to comments from the CC yesterday, it is completely false. Management said that they raise funds earlier this year so they would not have to in the future and that this is still the case.
Now what is right... I was a fool, put 98% of my retirement into this stock and now need to tell my wife that we are ruined. I have always heard that you needed to take chances to get ahead so I researched this stock and felt that this was the play. Unless something unforeseen occurs, I am sitting at $.50 on the dollar currently and may be looking at another 40-50% haircut in the next 24 hours. I am sick to my stomach. Will be a cheery conversation this evening most likely. Honey, I have some news for you about our plan for retiring in 5 years.
Hogs get slaughtered...
Not sure what to do.
