As you reflect upon previous travels and start thinking about your upcoming journeys, it is the prefect time to immerse yourself in international culture! I find that it is the best way to prepare for your next holiday! There are quite a few ways to familiarize yourself with other cultures. This is something that I enjoy doing and it helps in my understanding the culture of any distance land that I wish to visit.
World Music Concerts – One way I like to acquaint myself with another culture is by attending world music concerts in my hometown. World Music (World Music Concerts) brings popular international musicians and singers to my city for concerts at local venues. Since I recently returned from a vacation in Morocco, I decided to attend a world music concert by a group called "Terakaft". They performed Saharan Desert blues music. This was an outstanding way for me to reminisce about my recent Moroccan vacation.
The next world music concert I attended at that venue showcased singers and musicians from northern India's Rajasthan region, as well as an Indian dancer who performed while balancing large pottery on her head. Since India is on my future travel wishlist, this was a nice introduction to it's culture!
Ethnic Dining – Another method by which to recall your travels is to dine at a local restaurant that serves the international cuisine or prepare it yourself. I recently made Moroccan seven vegetable couscous and placed it in the decorative ceramic tagine I purchased in Fes, Morocco. I even cook using the spices I purchased while in Morocco. I fondly remember my travels while eating the cuisine here at home now.
I recently dined at an East African restaurant in my local suburbs. They offer menu selections from the Uganda and Tanzania regions. Since I plan on traveling to Tanzania in the not too distance future, I knew this would be a great way for me to get familiarized with their cuisine. My meal consisted of pounded yams, plantains, cornmeal with peanut sauce, greens, and beans. A refreshing tropical fruit juice was my beverage of choice. The entire meal was delicous!
Foreign Films – Foreign films are also great to watch, in order to immerse yourself in understanding another culture. Since my future travel plans include Russia, I recently attended a Russian film sponsored by Boston University's European Studies program. Universities offer many free workshops, films, and concerts to the general public. I highly recommend researching this and taking advantage of these cultural events to gain exposure to the history and culture of foreign lands. Harvard University maintains a film archive whereby they show foreign films, open to the public each month. In addition, other local theaters show foreign films on a regular basis.
Author Talks/Foreign Politics Discussion Panels – This Autumn, Boston University is promoting their "European Voices" series, free to the public. I attended an author talk by a famous Romanian author "Mircea Cartarescu", a discussion panel by two European Ambassadors(Czech Republic and Slovakia) who spoke of the future of the European Union, and the Russian film. The Romanian author talk brought back memories of my first overseas trip ever, while the other events fueled my desire for future travels.
International Shops – In my general vicinity, one can find shops that sell international clothing, handbags, jewelry, scarves, and various other gifts. The world traveler should visit one of these shops to get an idea of what they may purchase during their travels or to possibly purchase an article of clothing to wear during their holidays. I stumbled upon two such shops today. One sold clothing and other items from all over the world, with a focus on South America. The other offered articles of clothing and other goods, primarily from Tibet and other Asian countries. This is a good way to learn how the locals dress at your vacation destination.
Parades – Many ethnic groups have a parade in order to commemorate their native country's independence from foreign sovereignty. Attending an ethnic parade is a great way to learn about the music, dress, dance, and culture! I attended a Greek Independence Day parade in Boston this year. The city also runs a Caribbean Festival parade, in addition to a few others.
International Dance Festivals – Many cities offer an international dance festival. Boston has one each summer. Dancers performed Mexican, Haitian, Polish, Indian, Chinese, and various other dances. This is another good way to "psych yourself up" for a vacation in a distance land!
Museum Exhibits – I enjoy going to the local Museum Of Fine Arts to learn more about the country and culture that I will be visiting. Recently, they displayed an exhibit of artwork from the western African country of Benin. The prince was there, as were other dignitaries who spoke to the attendees. A troupe of dancers performed traditional dances. It gave me a good sense of the culture, as I do plan to visit western African in the future.
Even my local Museum Of Science showcased an exhibit from Israel. It was fascinating to see the Dead Sea Scrolls and other ancient artifacts from the region. Again, this was a great way to get acquainted with the history of a country that I would like to visit in the future.
International Culture Festivals – One of the best ways to immerse yourself in another culture is to attend an international festival. This past year, I was fortunate enough to attend Scottish, Japanese, and African Festivals!
The Scottish Highland Games is a festival which showcases athletic and music competition. The bagpipers and others don the kilt attire.
At the African Festival in Boston, several musicians and bands performed African music and traditional dancing. I was also able to try some vegan African food including sauteed collard greens, jollof rice, and tomato salad.
The Japanese Festival graced my town last summer. The day long festivities included Japanese origami-making, calligraphy, dance performances in traditional costume, music performances, Japanese flower arranging, and food.
The festival even offered some vegan options. I dined on seaweed salad, edamame, and a bean paste sweet dessert. The food stall worker acknowledged which sweet treats were vegan.
This month, I attended a Diwali Festival of Lights in my local region. This yearly festival in India is celebrated with music, dance, and food. My dinner meal was chana(cooked chickpeas with onions and tomatoes), aloo chobhi(Potatoes and cauliflower in sauce), chapati(thin bread), and rice. The staff from the catering restaurant assured me that the items were vegan. I enjoyed the cultural activities and the vegan foods.
Travelogues - Authors Paul Theroux and Bill Bryson are two of the most renowned and respected travel writers. I have been reading Mr. Theroux's "Dark Star Safari" to learn more about his travels to sub-Saharan African. This is in preparation of my upcoming trip to Tanzania. I am also planning to read Mr. Bryson's "In A Sunburned Country" to prepare myself for future travels to Australia.
Using the aforementioned tips, a world traveler can gain much insight into their holiday's destination and become a well-prepared traveler!

In re Vasquez-Muniz, Int. Dec. 3440 (BIA, 12/1/00)
Possession of a firearm by a felon in violation of §12021(a)(1) of the California Penal Code is not an aggravated felony under §101(a)(43)(E) of the INA, 8 USC § 1101(a)(43)(E) (1994), because it is not an offense "described in" 18 USC §922(g)(1) (1994).

In re S-A-, Int. Dec. 3433 (BIA, June 27, 2000)

In re Rodriguez-Diaz, Int. Dec. 3431 (BIA, May 18, 2000)

AILA Doc. No. 00032903.
In re Ignacio Campos-Torres, Int. Dec. 3428 (BIA, 3/21/00)
A firearms offense that renders an alien removable under §237(a)(2)(C) of the INA, is not one "referred to in §212(a)(2)" and thus does not stop the further accrual of continuous residence or continuous physical presence for purposes of establishing eligibility for cancellation of removal.

AILA Doc. No. 99121403.
BIA #3420 (11/30/99) In re Ydalia Cruz-Garcia

BIA #3418 (11/23/99) Matter of G—D—

BIA #3416 (10/20/99) Matter of Truong

AILA Doc. No. 99090340.
BIA #3409 Matter of L-V-K-
An IJ's order of deportation becomes a final decision upon an alien's waiver of the right to appeal. Where an alien files a motion to remand and more than 90 days have passed since entry of that final decision, the BIA lacks jurisdiction to adjudicate the motion because it is time-barred.
BIA #3408 Matter of Julio Antonio Cordova

AILA Doc. No. 99062241.
BIA #3402 Matter of Rafael ESPINOZA-Gonzalez
A conviction for misprision of a felony does not constitute a conviction for an aggravated felony under section 101(a)(43)(S) of the INA, as an offense relating to obstruction of justice.
AILA Doc. No. 99062240.
BIA #3401 Matter of R-S-J-

BIA #3400 Matter of Mario Salvador RUIZ-MASSIEU

AILA Doc. No. 99061140.
BIA #3399 Matter of Eloy ARGUELLES-Campos
Although an alien who applies for voluntary departure under either section 240B(a) or (b) of the Act must establish that a favorable exercise of discretion is warranted, the IJ has broader authority to grant voluntary departure in discretion before the conclusion of removal proceedings...
AILA Doc. No. 99060841.
BIA #3396 Matter of United Airlines Flight UA802
A carrier is subject to fine under section 273(a) of the INA when an alien passenger it has transported to the U.S. is paroled into the country but is not granted a waiver of documents under 8 C.F.R. § 212.1(g).
AILA Doc. No. 99060240.
BIA #3397 Matter of Ponce-Hernandez
INS met its burden of establishing a minor respondent's deportability where (1) Form I-213 was submitted; (2) the respondent made no challenge to the admissibility of the Form I-213; and (3) there were no grounds for a finding that the admission of the Form I-213 would be fundamentally unfair.
AILA Doc. No. 99060240.
BIA #3398 Matter of Joseph
An LPR will not be considered 'properly included' in a mandatory detention category when an IJ or the BIA finds that it is substantially unlikely that the INS will prevail on a charge of removability.

BIA #3395 Matter of Luis-Rodriguez

AILA Doc. No. 99052790.

BIA #3393 Matter of Ulloa

BIA #3392 Matter of Guzman-Arguera
BIA lacks jurisdiction to consider an appeal from an in absentia order in removal proceedings where section 240(b)(5)(C) of the INA provides that such an order may only be rescinded by filing a motion to reopen with the Immigration Judge.
BIA #3391 Matter of Alvarado-Alvino
An alien convicted of an offense described in section 275(a) of the INA is not convicted of an aggravated felony as that term is defined in section 101(a)(43)(N), which specifically refers to those offenses relating to alien smuggling described in sections 274(a)(1)(A) and (2) of the Act.
BIA Interim Decision #3390 -- Matter of Sweetser
Where the state statute under which an alien has been convicted is divisible it is necessary to look to the record of conviction, and to other documents admissible as evidence in proving a criminal conviction, to determine whether the specific offense constitutes an aggravated felony.
Non-Precedent BIA Decision on DWI as CIMT
In an unpublished decision dated March 16, 1999 the BIA held that a misdemeanor DWI conviction under Tex. Penal Code Ann. Sec. 49.09 (1998) was not a CIMT.

Interim Decision (BIA) 3389
Pursuant to section 240A(d)(1), continuous residence or physical presence for cancellation purposes is deemed to end on the date a qualifying offense has been committed.

The INS's filing of a Form EOIR-43 provides an automatic stay of an IJ's order releasing an alien who is charged with removal under one of the mandatory detention grounds set forth in section 236(c)(1), even where the IJ has determined that the alien is not subject to section 236(c)(1) and has terminated the removal proceedings on that charge.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3386
Alien convicted of bringing an illegal alien into the U.S. The BIA upholds that a determination whether an alien convicted of an aggravated felony, with less than 5 years' imprisonment, has been convicted of a 'particularly serious crime', requires an individual examination of the nature of the conviction, the sentence imposed, and the circumstances and underlying facts of the conviction.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3385
Revised - For purposes of determining eligibility for suspension of deportation, the period of continuous physical presence ends at the issuance of the Order to Show Cause and Notice of Hearing (Form I-221), irrespective of the date that it was issued.
Intrim Decision (BIA) 3384
An alien whose conviction for an aggravated felony was subsequent to her adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident is deportable under section 237(a)(2)(A)(iii), as an alien who was convicted of an aggravated felony 'after admission.'
Interim Decision (BIA) 3383
An alien whose conditional permanent residence was terminated by the Immigration and Naturalization Service under section 216(b) of the INA, before the 90-day petitioning period preceding the second anniversary of the grant of status, may file an application for a waiver under section 216(c)(4) of the Act.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3382
An alien convicted of causing a financial institution to fail to file currency transaction reports and of structuring currency transactions to evade reporting requirements, whose offense did not include any morally reprehensible conduct, is not convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude.

BIA #3880 Matter of CERVANTES-Gonzalez
The underlying fraud or misrepresentation for which an alien seeks a waiver of inadmissibility under section 212(i) of the Act may be considered as an adverse factor in adjudicating the waiver application in the exercise of discretion.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3379
An alien who was convicted of submitting a false claim with intent to defraud arising from an unsuccessful scheme to obtain $15,000 from an insurance company was convicted of an 'attempt' to commit a fraud in which the loss to the victim exceeded $10,000 within the meaning of section 101(a)(43)(U), and therefore is deportable as an alien convicted of an aggravated felony.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3378
Although the paternity must be established in order to qualify as a 'legitimated' child under section 101(b)(1)(C) of the INA, the child's father need not prove that they have any relationship other than a purely biological one. A personal relationship is not necessary.
Interim Decision (BIA) 3377
BIA Limits Ability to Erase Convictions, Criminal Records - In re Mauro Roland-Santoyo - BIA states that no effect is to be given in immigration proceedings to state action to expunge, vacate, dismiss or otherwise remove record of guilt or conviction.
BIA Addresses Question of When a Summary Decision is Appropriate
A summary decision pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 240.12(b) (1998) may properly be issued by an Immigration Judge in removal proceedings in lieu of an oral or written decision only when the respondent has expressly admitted to both the factual allegations and the charges of removability.

Title: | The digital native – myth and reality |
Author(s): | Neil Selwyn, (Institute of Education, University of London, London, UK) |

Abstract: | Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop and promote a realistic understanding of young people and digital technology with a view to supporting information professionals in playing useful and meaningful roles in supporting current generations of young people. In particular the paper aims to offer a critical perspective on popular and political understandings of young people and digital technologies – characterised by notions of "digital natives", the "net generation" and other commonsense portrayals of expert young technology users. The paper seeks to consider the accuracy of such descriptions in reflecting young people's actual uses of digital technology and digital information. Design/methodology/approach – The paper provides a comprehensive review of the recent published literatures on young people and digital technology in information sciences, education studies and media/communication studies. Findings – The findings show that young people's engagements with digital technologies are varied and often unspectacular – in stark contrast to popular portrayals of the digital native. As such, the paper highlights a misplaced technological and biological determinism that underpins current portrayals of children, young people and digital technology. Originality/value – The paper challenges the popular assumption that current generations of children and young people are innate, talented users of digital technologies. Having presented a more realistic basis for approaching generational differences in technology use, the paper explores the functions and roles that information professionals can be expected to play in supporting young people in the digital age. |

K-16 University Partners Meeting: Early Literacy
We are excited to announce that PHENND and the School District of Philadelphia are holding the next K-16 University Partners Meeting on Wednesday, December 11th, 3:30PM-5:00PM at 440 North Broad Street. The theme of this meeting comes directly from one of the District's stated top priorities: Early Literacy.
The PHENND University Partners Meeting is a new initiative that brings university, nonprofit, and school-based practitioners together around common themes. Goals for this and all future K-16 University Partners meetings are:
- provide practitioners with "take aways" (e.g. ideas you can adapt for use in your own programs)
- exposure to new and innovative programs and practices
- introduction to key School District personnel
Presenters and "take aways" for this meeting will be:
How to engage older youth in early literacy Jan Steinberg, retired teacher and founder of Literacy Corps. Literacy Corps engaged older youth in addressing both their own literacy as well as those of younger children
How to support parent involvement in early literacy Representatives from the Philadelphia Writing Project at Penn will talk about an initiative at W. D. Kelley School (also a PHENND AmeriCorps*VISTA project site) to create small groups of parents working on supporting early literacy strategies in the home. Speakers will be Michele Bell, teacher at the Powell School in West Philadelphia, and Mattie Davis, teacher at the William Dick School in North Philadelphia.
Doria Mitchell from the School District's Office of Early Childhood Education will provide an update on District initiatives and strategies.
Attendees will have the chance to ask questions to all presenters, network with peers and obtain concrete information on early literacy strategies.
Who should attend?
- University faculty, staff and students who work with young children (pre-K through 3rd grade) as well as those working with older youth and families but who are interested in engaging them in early literacy.
- Non-profits and community programs focused on early literacy who are interested in partnerships with colleges and universities
- K-12 teachers, administrators and staff interested in community partnerships for early literacy
We hope you will join us. Please RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1wD1T9I9z54BZI3IhqhsGNHhHbSXjUub47ZpQCfc04/viewform

View the conference program booklet from the 20th Anniversary Conference.
Call for Workshops
We are looking for individuals who plan on attending the PHENND CONFERENCE: Anchor Institutions: A Regional Approach, to be held February 13-14, 2014 to research, design, and lead paper presentations and workshops. This gathering will be attended by a national audience of 150-200 students, campus staff, faculty, and others who are active in community development, community service, service-learning, and campus-community partnership work. Over the course of the two days, a limited number of hands-on workshops will be offered to participants to complement plenary sessions and panels.
Many conferences have detailed the role single Anchor Institutions have played in various communities across the country, whether it be Penn in West Philadelphia, Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, or Harvard in Cambridge. For this conference, we are interested in exploring questions related to multi-Anchor collaborations, particularly in larger, metropolitan areas with more than one Anchor. What does this look like in metro New York or Los Angeles? How can Anchors effectively work together, despite different resources, interests, and histories? How can cities and city governments work with these collaborations? What does this look like on a municipal scale vs. a metropolitan/regional scale? What happens to neighborhoods within these regions that have no Anchor?
Proposals are due Monday, December 2, 2013.
The conference will be held at both the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University.
View the call for proposals here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NPrAKKYq_0L8HY6lhzno7wQWelpfKPVcqnaEmLSxQVY/viewform
Keynote Speaker
We are pleased to announce that this year's keynote will be Lillian Kuri, Program Director for Architecture, Urban Design and Sustainable Development at the Cleveland Foundation. The Cleveland Foundation is a driving force behind the Greater University Circle Initiative, which you can learn more about here: http://www.clevelandfoundation.org/?yt=NDazrebWELg
Lillian Kuri is currently the Program Director for Architecture, Urban Design and Sustainable Development at the Cleveland Foundation. The Cleveland Foundation is the oldest and one of the largest community foundations in the United States. The Foundation is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in Greater Cleveland.
Lillian Kuri joined the Cleveland Foundation in 2005 as a consultant to develop a comprehensive strategy for one of the foundation's priority initiatives: the revitalization of the Greater University Circle area – one of the nation's largest and most comprehensive anchor-based initiatives – involving cross cutting issues such as transportation, mixed-use development, housing assistance, education, sustainability, community wealth, and economic inclusion. This initiative includes a path-breaking and innovative "buy-local" model of inclusive economic development and job creation. The strategy includes supporting local businesses though supply chain attraction and retention initiatives in the Health Tech Corridor and "growing Cleveland's own businesses" through the "employee owned" Evergreen Cooperative Initiative. The first to launch are the Evergreen Cooperative Laundry, Evergreen Energy Solutions and Green City Growers Cooperative – the largest urban food production greenhouse in the US.
Lillian also manages a new foundation initiative in partnership with the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District related to NEORSD's $3 billion, 25 year project to remove the combined sewer system, including new stormwater practices and green infrastructure. Lillian continues to work on foundation strategies for innovative uses of capital, energy efficiency, vacant land reutilization and local food.

About the Sorrento Springs Field Trip
November 11th, 2008
Katherine Beim-Esche, General Music Teacher, Sorrento Springs Elementary–
I had several goals in mind when designing this field trip. Firstly, I was interested in providing an opportunity for my students to hear live music and to see real art in an authentic viewing experience. Secondly, I wanted my students to begin to see connections between art and music. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I wanted to encourage my students to actively experience the music and art. To accomplish these goals I developed a focus for the experience which was to find elements of Musical Theater in art.
We discussed the different elements of a Musical Theater story: Character, Plot, and Setting–adding musical and dance styles. Students charted these elements in different Musical Theater scenes. They found story elements of songs by noticing details and then asking questions. After watching Harold Hill sing, "Ya Got Trouble," students answered questions about the scene and thought of questions to ask the character Harold Hill. Students also started thinking about the roles of the people who bring this story to life: Playwright, Choreographer, Composer, Actor, and Set Designer. They thought about the role of each of these people and how they contributed to telling a story in Musical Theater.
Students, then, were given the opportunity to see a real Musical Theater performance live at The Sheldon entitled "The American Musical." In between songs the performers and the musical director discussed these same elements of Character, Plot, and Setting. They also reinforced information about the roles of the Playwright, Choreographer, Composer, Actor, and Set Designer in Musical Theater. Students loved watching this live performance and recognized many of the songs and concepts. We stopped for a quick picnic lunch and then moved on to The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts. Our visit to The Pulitzer was structured, yet open for individual experience and discovery. Students were divided into six groups and were to visit six different stations. I gave each student a booklet which provided a place for reflection and creation at each station. I used a template rather than individualizing each page to allow for alterations in the activities according to each individual group's interests. Each station was manned by a teacher and a gallery assistant who had been given a specific activity. The instruction to these station leaders emphasized that if the activities needed to be tweaked to accommodate a group's interests, they were encouraged to make these changes. What remained consistent was an instruction to "notice" and "wonder" at each station. Creation was at the heart of each activity. This creation could be documented in a designated place in the booklet. Each station connected a piece of art or architecture with Musical Theater. To help the students experience the piece at each station, they were asked to become a different role found in Musical Theater: Playwright, Choreographer, Composer, Actor, and Set Designer. Students reflected in their booklets, participated in an activity based on the focus piece, and then reflected once more. Example activities: Students created dance movements responding to the movement and lines inherent in The Pulitzer's water garden. Students wrote a plot of a play inspired by a landscape drawing. Students wrote a character study for a portrait and then created an impromptu scene acting as the character.
We spent two hours at the museum, and the time flew by. The students were engaged and eager to learn. Each activity took students away from merely thinking whether they liked the art or not. They focused their attention on what they saw and then further into asking questions, making connections, seeing patterns, and creating meaning. Many students were so inspired by their experience at The Pulitzer that they want to come back again.
At the conclusion, students wrote a post field trip evaluation in the booklet. Then, in class, students created their own Musical Theater scenes. Each student assumed one of the roles we had studied for their group: Playwright, Choreographer, Composer, Actor, and Set Designer. We performed and videotaped these scenes in class. This culminating activity allowed students to put into practice all that they had learned.
This was a truly rewarding experience for me and my students. It was such a pleasure working with The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts. They were so very accommodating in helping make this field trip possible.

Catamounts get jump on New HampshireFebruary 07,2013MENS BASKETBALL
Vermont 63, UNH 48
BURLINGTON Luke Apfeld scored 16 points and Vermont jumped on New Hampshire early en route to a 63-48 win over the Wildcats Wednesday night in an America East game.
The Catamounts (15-7, 8-2), last years A-East champions, stormed to a 34-16 halftime lead over New Hampshire (7-15, 2-7) and coasted home. This was much easier than Vermonts 64-51 win at New Hampshire on Jan. 2.
Apfeld, whose 16 points included two 3-pointers, helped the Catamounts build a 27-8 lead. He got help from Clancy Rugg, who also hit two treys, and Ethan ODay. They scored 13 and 10 points, respectively. Bryan Voelkel grabbed 14 rebounds.
The Wildcats hurt themselves from 3-point range. They made just 3 of 14 treys, all three from Scott Morris in five attempts. Vermont was 7 of 22 from long range.

Jay-Z targets future NHL star Seth Jones for Roc Nation sports
The next target for Jay-Z's Roc Nation Sports banner is potential No. 1 NHL draft pick Seth Jones, according to sources. The son of Nets assistant coach and former Nuggets player Popeye Jones is already repped by CAA, Roc Nation's partner. But sources said Jay-Z's organization wants to strike a deal to be involved in the star's marketing and branding, reports The Post's Kirsten Fleming. Jones would then benefit from both sides of the CAA and Roc Nation partnership. "When Seth comes to the NHL draft [in Newark, NJ] in June, his family, agents at CAA and Roc Nation are going to have a powwow to see if he'll sign with them," a source said.

The newest chapter of the Assassin's Creed series gives me some of the things I've always wanted in a video game: a heroic fantasy that lets me control a warrior fighting against slavery.

But, mostly, it reminds me of going to church with my mother. It makes me happy and sad at the same time.

SALINAS, Calif. - SWAT Team members entered an empty home after a nearly 10-hour standoff on Sherwood Drive near Market Street on Monday. Officials thought a man was hiding inside and refused to come outside.
Police believed the suspect, 27-year-old Delbert Robles, was inside the home when two maintenance workers showed up just after 10 a.m. They said Robles pointed a gun at them and asked them to leave. The workers then called police. When police showed up, a patrol officer saw the front door being shut, but didn't see Robles.
Police believed Robles was the only one at the home and that he was armed and dangerous. So they took all the normal steps in this kind of situation.
"We methodically investigate this crime and you know we're responsible for the outcome and we're going to air on the side of caution," said Salinas Police Commander David Crabill.
But after hours of negotiations and special police tactics, the SWAT team entered the home, did a thorough search and found no one. Commander Crabill said in a situation like this, they don't take any chances, not knowing what may be on the other side of the door.
"We consider the safety of the officers involved and the entire scenario; each situation is different," Crabill said.
This isn't the first time police have been in a standoff with Robles. Police said they had a similar situation in January, but that one ended much sooner. Investigators said Robles used to live at the home but was evicted.
Police said Robles' family believed he was inside the house, and they cooperated all day to try and help their investigation. Now law enforcement are on the lookout for him. They said Robles has a criminal background with weapons and drugs.
Sherwood Drive, between Rossi and Market streets, closed during the standoff, causing traffic to back up in the area.
