Police provide explanation of Bernal Heights Park shooting at emotional town hall meeting
The San Francisco Police Department held a town hall meeting at Leonard Flynn Elementary school last night [Wed/25] to discuss a March 21 officer-involved shooting that fatally wounded 28-year-old Alejandro Nieto. The meeting drew a large crowd, with members of the community taking turns speaking for several hours to vent their frustration and sadness over Nieto's death.
At the start of the meeting, San Francisco Police Chief Greg Suhr provided an account of the events leading up to Nieto being gunned down by at least four police officers in Bernal Heights Park. Despite earlier reports that he had a gun in a holster on his hip, it was later discovered that Nieto had actually been carrying a Taser, Suhr said. Friends said Nieto had a Taser because he worked as a night club security guard.
The police chief said the encounter started because someone who had seen Nieto inside Bernal Heights Park dialed 911 at about 7:11pm to report that there was a man with "a gun on his hip. A black handgun."
About a minute later, according to a printout from the 911 dispatch that Suhr read out loud, the person who had called 911 provided an update that "the man was pacing back and forth, by a chain-linked fence, near a bench."
After a couple minutes, the 911 dispatch record showed, the reporting party said "the subject is still on scene ... He is eating chips, or sunflowers [sunflower seeds?], but resting his hand on the gun."
Then, "At about 7:15, a sergeant from Ingleside station and another officer go on scene and start a search for the area ... At about 7:18 and 49 seconds, that same reporting party – again, who's not a police officer – heard shots fired. The shots ... were fired by the police department."
Within three and a half minutes of arriving to the scene, police had opened fire and shot Nieto multiple times. While friends said he was shot 14 times, Suhr said he did not yet know how many bullets had struck Nieto. Suhr confirmed that the officers who had been involved in the shooting had been placed on paid leave.
"What Mr. Nieto had was, he had a black Taser pistol," Suhr said. "The distance from which the officers engaged Mr. Nieto was about … 75 feet, up a hill." To illustrate the distance, he said it was about from where he was standing to the back wall of the room. From that distance, he later said, "they could not make out that there was any yellow on the gun."
Suhr went on: "When the officers asked him to show his hands, he drew the Taser from the holster. And these particular Tasers, as soon as they're drawn, they emit a dot. A red dot."
Suhr picked up a Taser and pointed it at the back wall of the room, where a small red dot was visible, to underscore the point.
"When the officers saw the laser sight on them, tracking, they believed it to be a firearm, and they fired at Mr. Nieto," the police chief went on. "He did not survive his injuries." Suhr added that police "believed he had a firearm. They fired in defense of their own lives." In a later interview, he confirmed that officers would not have used lethal force had they known that Nieto possessed a Taser instead of a firearm.
Clearly, some who turned out at the meeting weren't buying the police account.
Ben Bac Sierra, who was friends with Nieto, asked Suhr several questions at the meeting. "What kind of warning did police provide to Alex? Did they have a loudspeaker of some sort? Did officers approach with weapons drawn? Now that you're saying that he pointed the laser at them, then I can imagine that the yellow [Taser markings] were clearly visible. At 7pm it is still daylight outside. So why wouldn't officers know immediately? And why was there no call for cease fire once one of the intelligent, professionally trained officers could tell that that was a Taser? I have witnesses' accounts: Some say 50 bullets were shot at that time."
Others who knew Nieto well were skeptical of the idea that he would have pulled out his Taser in response to being asked to show his hands.
Nieto was one semester away from graduating from City College of San Francisco, where he was studying Administration of Justice with a longterm goal of becoming a youth probation officer. He was mentored by people whose lives were devoted to helping youth who had gone through the criminal justice system to improve their lives. He practiced Buddhism. He had passed a required state exam to become a security guard.
"To me, it doesn't add up," said Carlos Gonzalez, a muralist and youth probation officer who knew Nieto, as he spoke at the town hall meeting. "It just doesn't make sense to me that he would be that dumb to do something like that."
At the meeting, Suhr said Nieto had been barred from possessing a firearm due to a history of mental illness. Some witness accounts in the media described a man who was "pacing," "air boxing," and threatening a dog with a Taser. At the same time, the record suggests dispatchers and police did not consider themselves to be responding to a call involving a mentally ill individual. Asked if members of the department's Crisis Intervention Team, which has officers specifically trained to deal with people experiencing mental illness, had been dispatched to the scene, Suhr told the Bay Guardian, "There was never any indication ... the whole thing unfolded in minutes. It was a man with a gun call."
Suhr also mentioned during the town hall meeting that Nieto did not have a criminal record, but that a restraining order had been filed against him.
Records show that on March 20, the day before Nieto was killed, San Francisco resident Yajaira Barrera Estrada had requested a restraining order against Nieto. The next day, the request was partly granted and partly denied pending a hearing that had been set for April 11. In her request, Estrada described her relationship with Nieto by saying they "used to be friends." She wrote in the document that an incident had occurred on March 5, in which Nieto had "started to shoot my husband with a Taser gun 3 to 4 times," in front of her son.
Her husband, Arthur Vega, also filed a request for a restraining order against Nieto, on March 14. "Five years ago he use to be a friend of mine but now he has bad blood for me," Vega wrote in that request. He described the same incident, saying Nieto had attacked him with a Taser. His request also noted, "Alejandro also has a restraining order against me," evidently stemming from some previous altercation in which Vega may have been the aggressor.
When we reached Estrada by phone, she declined to discuss the restraining order or the circumstances surrounding it. However she did say this: "Alex was an excellent person. I don't know why the media is writing bad things about him. I don't know why the police shot him. He was an excellent person with me."
Near the end of the meeting, Sup. David Campos issued a public apology to Nieto's father. Then, with Campos translating, Nieto's father explained that he had not learned that Nieto had been shot by police until the day after it happened. "And then when the police investigators came in, the first thing they were asking him was ... about Alejandro," Campos said, translating what Nieto's father was telling him in Spanish. "It wasn't until they had asked all the questions that they actually told them what had happened. And then they wanted to go into his room and search the room, and he said no."
Then police took Nieto's car, Campos added, saying they needed it for an investigation. "And so they're trying to understand why that happened, given that it had nothing to do with what actually took place," Campos noted. Meanwhile, "They haven't said anything to him about when they're going to ... release the body."

And here are some comments from Blanca Gutierrez and her 10-year-old son, Sebastian, who spoke at the hearing:
I'm not sure what else anyone can reasonably expect the police to do when someone draws a weapon on them.
Can you honestly say that shooting someone 14 or more times when they have not fired one shot is correct procedure. Do you honestly believe that shooting to kill when not one shot has been fired is correct procedure without knowing the facts? If this is a just procedure then are we now placing the police as judge, jury and handing them the right to decide who should be killed and who gets a chance to live. This is a unacceptable procedure! The police should be protectors for all of our communities and we should all feel safe in the pretense of the police.
If a cop or anyone else is threatened with immediate harm or death, the the cops can "shoot to kill".
The reason is that the one shot to disable a man is just in the movies. In real life you need multiple rounds fired, because some will miss and some will not stop the bad guy.
So the SFPD response here was correct, even if the outcome is sad.
So what you're saying is that the police need to wait until shots are actually fired at them. Basically, committing suicide or hoping that the individual firing at them is a rellay bad shot.
Police officers are the biggest liars i know. Believing everything they say is being ignorant.
How do you know a cop is lying on the witness stand?
His lips are moving!
Which should tell you how out of touch you are.
Seriously, Greg, why the obsession with cops? It's creepy.
Otherwise the Public Defender's office wouldn't be winning 62% of their cases.
Incidentally, that joke's been making the rounds for a long time. I heard it from a now-deceased criminal defense attorney years ago. "Testilying" is another common term. Everyone in the business knows that cops routinely perjure themselves. Only lay people believe this angelic façade. Except San Francisco juries tend to be more discerning than average.
Jason Grant Garza ... yes, Greg you are correct. SF is "Risk Management" a go-go. This is one of their tactics along with scorched earth ... here is an example of its finest. In 2001 SF broke federal EMTALA law and denied me services and had me illegally and falsely arrested. My doctor abandoned me since I was suing the city and he was the Director of Public Health ( more pressure ) and in 2003 when I took them to federal court (C02-3485PJH) the fraud was committed with testilying and my case was thrown out. I continued and went to the Office of Inspector General where in 2007 the city signed a confession admitting fault and guilt yet left their innocent vindicated victim for DEAD. http://myownprivateguantanamo.com/settle1.html It is 2014 and NO ONE from the courts, DPH, SFPD, Sheriff nor city attorney (same one) has explained. Testilying .... http://myownprivateguantanamo.com/reply2.html and note the admission .... # 6 http://myownprivateguantanamo.com/settle2.html .
Now go to youtube and type in Jason Garza to see that it just continues .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cP3jCmJFRo&list=TLrk-qXMSnlxIHZ3oepMRXJ... and when I continue to speak the TRUTH others blame the victim, wish him death and DO NOT want to hear the truth ... http://www.sfbg.com/politics/2014/03/27/inside-homeless-outreach-team ( note: read the comments where it is suggested that I off myself as a martyr ) since as it states I have been blogging for over 5 years ( it has been more ) in regard to what I am saying and what is left out of the equation and facts is that JUSTICE is rarely swift and fast as a point in case ... the signed confession took 6 years as stated by http://www.sfbg.com/2007/06/27/crazy.
So truly don't look for too much humanity here at these blogs ....
Again, the TRUTH will out. Oh, and if you think that is a FARCE look at my MINISTRY of SUNSHINE videos at youtube under Jason Garza (where I have close to 400 videos and continuing) or even more hopelessness ... look at the SFPD LGBT Liaison videos ... learn the GAMES, watch the INHUMANITY and note most would rather have the truth silenced.
Your very sexist, no women or transgenders can be police officers? Oh by the way
Since you have all the answers, why don't join, then you can wright all the wrongs of all the the law enforcement you see. And you can be a eye witness instead of an ivory tower know it all:)
except troll chatrooms 24/7.
Someone is willing to eat whatever garbage the SFPD serves without question. If this is "correct procedure" maybe that procedure needs to be changed.
If a perp pulls a firearm on a cop, they get shot.
Sierra is an idiot. That is all.
Health tip: don't draw weapon on police.
....It's nothing more than a claim. As long as police are the only source for the claim that he pointed the taser at them then there is no reason to believe it.
Nothing indicates he wanted to commit suicide-by-cop (the only explanation for pointing anything at a cop).
Maybe a witness not connected to law enforcement will come forward corroborating the claim or, even better, some cellphone video will emerge. But, absent some corroborating evidence, the police claim that he drew his weapon on them is just not believable.
Or he could have had some sort of psychotic episode. I'm not saying that did happen but that would explain his pulling the taser on the cops. In the Chronicle article, even Nieto's friends say he hadn't been acting like himself lately and appeared depressed.
taser was found at the scene.
There is no evidence to the contrary.
This is why all police officers should have a camera on them recording exactly what they see and hear before they use force.
prudent exceptions and a protocol to protect privacy.
Police use force in less than 1-5% of all arrests nationwide. You really want to bear the public expense of cameras to monitor such a small percentage of that? More than 20-30% of women nationwide have been subject of some form of physical violence from a spouse/boyfriend. Roughly the same percentage of children in the US are physically abused each year. At any given time on American freeways, roughly 10-15% of all drivers on the road are at or above the legal limit of intoxication. Where is your outrage over those REAL problems?
are pulled out of the ass.
I don't see the problem with cameras on cops. It would help both sides find the truth in any dispute between the cop's version and the arrestee's version. In other words, a cop with nothing to hide has nothing to fear.
Your stand on this reveals the hypocrisy of the authoritarian trolls. You accuse anyone who doesn't agree with you of hating cops and loving criminals. But if cops are so angelic, then this idea should help them win their cases. I have no problem with that when it's warranted. All I care about is the truth. But you want total surveillance of the civilian population, and no oversight of the state security apparatus. Proving again that you're nothing but an authoritarian.
and not will it enable criminals to get away with stuff more.
Yes I do, in communities where police have to wear cameras, incidents of police violence have gone down massively, 22-28%. Google the article, it makes sense, cops do lie all the time, and then hide behind the Blue Wall of Silence. That is why I believe every cop guilty, if you are not part of the solution, but helping to hide the problem, what does that say?
cops agree to it.
The cop was the killer, not the victim. Correct me if I'm wrong about the significance of the black strip thing, but from my understanding, a black strip over the badge is worn to honor only one of their own, not one of the human beings they're allegedly sworn to protect. I haven't heard of any recently dead cops.
If they're doing that in honor of a victim of police violence for once, then that's an interesting gesture. Better that they didn't murder him in the first place. And if they're wearing it to honor the killer, that's just sick.
The black strip was probably in regards to the cop who was killed last week up in Oregon. And they didn't "murder" him. They responded to a perceived lethal threat. Leave it to you to suggest that they're wearing it to honor someone who killed a person. Your anti-cop bias is showing again.
subject of cops. He thinks the cops should never use their guns.
Maybe he should move to England or Japan where that is true.
So some cop somewhere in another state is more worthy of mourning than a San Franciscan murdered right here. That says it all about their attitude toward the people they're sworn to protect.
And maybe we should be more like England and Japan. I fail to see why it's somehow bad to run a society in such a way that murder is rare, including police murder. We should hold them up as examples to emulate. We should see if we can incorporate some of their practices into our own society. Hint: we can start with our gun laws. Only in the twisted world of the trolls is this something negative.
safety of the kind of vermin and scum that they risk their lives to defend us from.
Unless if by "us," you mean trolls.
what the majority think.
When a gang member kills another gang member, few people give a crap.
Again. He wasn't murdered. He was shot and killed because he represented a legitimate, potentially lethal threat. But we know, we know... cops are bad, mmmkaaay.
who was killed in California by a wanted fugitive from Oregon. That fugitive also murdered an elder of the Coquille tribe, a 79-year old man.
Jason Grant Garza here ... ah, the Chief of Police helping disabled or individuals with mental illness ... ha,ha,ha. Go to youtube to see close to 400 videos of my trying to get an meeting with the chief to show videos, evidence and non-performance on SFPD. There you will see where I was falsely 5150'd at their Northern Station https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XzuUtR-7hQ and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJlOgdW5QHk and then watch the prior videos of the chief's office telling me that my only point of contact was Kelly Kruger and ask me if Kruger responded, had me in to discuss and videotape, etc. The answer is HELL NO just a rigged method so that you have no recourse. Look at the specific SFPD LGBT Liaison videos to see more deception and lies. Where was my "SAFE ZONE" at Northern Station? Where was I treated with respect, compassion and honesty? Why has NO CATAIN from Northern or Mission Station contacted me as specifically requested (watch videos)? Can you say BULL?
So when the article states " Asked if members of the department's Crisis Intervention Team, which has officers specifically trained to deal with people experiencing mental illness, had been dispatched to the scene, Suhr told the Bay Guardian, "There was never any indication ... the whole thing unfolded in minutes. It was a man with a gun call." I can tell you that is it MEANINGLESS. What crisis team, what humanity, what follow up ... keep watching the videos on youtube (under Jason Garza) to see and ask why has this not been offered for HOW long now? Could it be that my videos and questions would show what they can not answer? Yes, keep drinking the Kool-Aid.
Maybe, JGG, you should arrange to get shot by the SFPD. If you survived, you'd certainly have the ear of city officials.
Jason Grant Garza here ... dear Chromefields do you mean like the ear and attention of city officials that I got after the city signed a confession admitting fault and guilt for breaking federal law. http://myownprivateguantanamo.com/settle1.html in 2007 with the Office of Inspector General when they testilied and had my case thrown out in 2003 (C02-3485PJH) for a CRIME they committed in 2001? My it is 2014 and NO ONE from the courts, SFPD, DPH, Sheriff nor City Attorney (same one) has explained how I can have an arrest record (never having been arrested before) sitting next to a confession for a CRIME they committed. So please save your cute comments and distractions for the city officials. Unless, that of coarse is not your intent but rather to distract, risk manage. make fun, etc of the TRUTH and the VICTIM. Please continue to show us your intent ... mine is apparent ... accountability, transparency, humanity, etc. And FYI it is the INHUMANITY I fight, video tape and document ... I still await humanity as apparently you have been so concerned about. As far as being shot by SFPD please go to youtube and watch the 9/18/13 videos regarding the false and illegal 5150 at Northern Station in their "SAFE ZONE" as falsely represented to the LGBT community.
Chromefields is just a sociopath.
wants to denigrate his debating opponent?
Seems to be overtaking "troll" in common usage.
Erratic behavor, threatening, history of mental illness? Even people who knew and liked Nieto seem to know he had a negative side.
Comments like gundowned, murdered, victim, are disturbing.
Police also have friends, and familys, children, and some with grand children.
To imply that they kill someone without a good reason is irrational,
It's sad to see a young man die but the police simply did their job.
agitators who jump on every police shooting and claim it was not justified.
All the facts indicate that the takedown was very necessary
familys? That would be families.
I'll immediately snatch your rss feed as I can not to find
your email subscription hyperlink or e-newsletter service.
Do you have any? Kindly allow me realize in order that I may just subscribe.
What if it was true that Mr. Nieto (Rest in Peace/love to his family) was actually looking to hurt someone and the police did their job? And I mean *what if* ALL the evidence that is shown shows that this this guy unfortunately needed help and it resulted to this unfortunate situation? (Btw, people, take care of yourself. Mentally and physically!)
Would it still be a fault someone's of race that isn't the same as him? Would it still be the fault of gentrifiers? It sounds to me like everyone defending or offending this is looking for fault at someone.
What if it came out that he was actually just having lunch at the hill and was falsely assumed as a "bad person". Would it be the gentrifiers fault again? Perhaps a dog that barked at him? Who's fault would it be?
In this country, it's always someone's fault. Think about that.
In free America, people don't get shot for carrying a gun. So why is it OK to shoot a man from 25 yards away for carrying something that might be a gun?
He drew it as police arrived
Man. do the cops sound like liars. That's all I got to say.
Just prejudice and speculation?
Man. do the cops sound like liars. That's all I got to say.

Bed and breakfast owner left shell-shocked by tiny hen's egg
12:09pm Wednesday 28th November 2012 in News
A BED and breakfast owner who reckons he has found the world's smallest hens' egg confessed he took it in his pocket to show his pals at the pub.
Paul Rae, 52, found the 20p piece-sized egg on Sunday morning alongside three normal-sized ones in his henhouse at the business he runs with wife Margaret in Humshaugh, Northumberland.
He is hoping to get confirmation that his is the smallest egg, beating a previous claim which weighed 7.3g, as his is just 5g, 2.5cm high and 2cm across.
Mr Rae, a former catering manager on oil rigs, said: "After I found it I had a quick look online then I took it to the pub.
"I carried it in my pocket.
"My friends said I should get in touch with the Guinness Book of Records."
The couple, who run a restaurant and bed and breakfast from picturesque 200-year-old Walwick Farm, have no idea which of their four Lohmann Brown hens laid the minuscule egg.
"It is very rare," Mr Rae said.
"They have been laying normal eggs and then all of a sudden this tiny one came out.
"I have no idea about the reason.
"It is a perfect egg with a lovely strong shell.
"I don't carry it in my pocket now, its wrapped in cotton wool at the minute."

Its not rare at all he needs to stick to what he knows best. Granted it is a suprise when a hen lays a little egg but Ive had loads from mine and some were a lot smaller than that. It is either a first egg laid by a pullet or possibly a last egg before the hen either goes in to moult or is about to have a rest for a while. If its a world record then the ones i have beat it into a cocked hat.
Keep up the first class reporting!

Hey everyone i need some help. I am currently 6 foot 4 and weigh about 260 pounds. I have started doing cardio 4 times a week and the other 3 days im weight lifting. I am taking Protein shakes after every workout. I also know all the exercises i need to do. The only problem is that i need is that i dont know what kind of Meal Plan i should be doing. Is there any website or anything that shows a week Meal plan?
If you're looking to lose some fat while minimizing muscle loss do a search for carb cycling. There's a ton of threads on it here, should have all the information you'd need. Look up the Ultimate Diet 2.0 as well, you can also buy the book online and download it as a pdf.
If you want to actually gain muscle while losing fat, it'll take a more drastic diet and you'll have to be extremely disciplined.
What kind of cardio are you doing?
Best lifts: 615/475/660, Raw w/ Wraps
Im doing treadmill running for about 20-25 minutes a day. mosly i want to lose belly fat
"The deadlift is more functional in that its very hard to imagine a more useful application of strength than picking heavy *h*t up off the ground" Rip

Hey Redwing.
You don't need any specific meal plan. You need to understand the basics. Eat whole healthy foods. Know how many calories you are consuming. Lift heavy. Make sure your lifts are slowly going up. Squat. Do some intense cardio here or there.
It's incredibly difficult and very complicated to lose fat and gain muscle within the same week. That's why I would advise against it.
If you feel your bodyfat is high, then cut for a few months. All you have to do is find how many calories you lose weight on, and stick to that number.
I find that I can effectively lose fat by just keeping my stomach only 2/3 full. I don't count calories or anything. I just lift heavy and eat right.
So... get the basics down.

AtLarge Nutrition Supplements Get the best supplements and help support Wannabebig!
Although increasing strength will come with weight training its not the only or best way to measure results. There is a ceiling effect when it comes to strength and unless your are a strongman or powerlifter the amount of weight is only a small part of the bigger picture if the goal is fatloss and to build muscle. Intensity of workouts, proper nutrition, etc... all are major contributors to increasing your metabolic rate.
Also just running doesn't do anything to increase ones metabolism all it does is burn calories, theres a big difference. You want to look to do things such as complexes, systematic exercises, etc... things that have a large cary over to improving someones metabolism, conditioning, workload capacity.
Unfourtunatley its not a black and white answer and it takes proper assessment to determine what nutrition plan and program someone needs to be on. But generaly speaking use whole unprocessed foods and use submaintenace calories.

[ a program of iEARN educator, Bill Belsey, in Canada - also facilitator of the Bullying Project in iEARN ]
Bullying is often the number one non-academic issue that many educators around the world face. Bullying is the number one education concern of most parents. Yet, many educators have never received a research-based course, let alone a class about bullying during their time at university or in the field as classroom teachers.
www.bullyingcourse.com offers, online research-based courses and Webinars about bullying and cyberbullying for educators and parents.
These are self-paced courses offered in English.

"Using an Avo console is a way of life," says LD Chris Lehane. Well, folks, life just got a whole lot easier. The Diamond 4 series of consoles, the Elite and the Vision, are making the Avolites faithful smile and will go a long way to attracting new converts. The Diamond 4 (D4) consoles are not really two boards but, rather, one board in two packages. "The Elite really gives us an alternative board layout with the same features and punch of the Vision console," says the company's sales director Steve Warren. Where the D4 Vision is laid out for the concerts, live event, and festival market, the more compact D4 Elite is designed for the theater and TV control rooms, as well as the limited space of FOH corporate events, using the same software in a more condensed setup with fewer slider handles.
The Vision offers users 128 preset faders and 28 playback masters; the Elite desk has 14 submasters and 96 playback handles — but don't get too caught up in the handle names, because one of the features of the D4 is the ability to reassign them. "All of the playback and all of the preset faders can now be used to control memories or cues," explains Warren. This allows great flexibility, because you can have lots of memories, chases, and special cues that are all there in front of you to grab during the show. The electronic tape allows you to label all of the sliders as you want them to be. The flexibility and the labeling are getting a good response." Meatloaf LD William Sheldon took a Vision from North Creek, NY-based Creative Stage Lighting on tour; he was immediately attracted to this feature: "When I first saw the console I liked it right away. I like that it has the labeling. I love that you are not limited to the number of playbacks. You can assign a memory to any of the channels. There are no limitations to where things are or how you can play the console." Scott Wasson, warehouse manager of Theatrical Media Services (based in Omaha, NE, and Hendersonville, TN) agrees: "The labeling saves a lot of time and the fact that you can use all the submasters — well, basically you can turn the whole console into cue lists. It's fantastic." Lehane used the Elite for the pop orchestra, Polyphonic Spree, and found, "Even though every song has its setup you always need to have a few things up your sleeve and that is why the flexible memory faders are great — when you need to be able to grab things quick, the Diamond 4 is great."
LD Dan Cooke used the Elite on the rap musical Da Boyz in England, the first use of the product in the theater market. Cook thinks Avolites got it right by making the D4 a tracking console. "The thing that really sold me on the D4 in the theater environment was, I could really edit cues so fast. Because it is a tracking console, every button-push I made was stored, which really gave me the chance to go back to looks that I might have changed my mind about. It is a powerful feature." Cook also took full advantage of another new feature, the Overlap, "I found I used the Overlaps quite a bit and I was able to set up some very nice effects because of them." The Overlap is, in fact, two features — the Fixture Overlap and the Chase Step Overlap, which allow users to easily create more complicated fades, ripples, and chase effects just by staggering when fixtures join the cue. Sheldon found the overlap became a favorite feature as well: "It takes hours of programming down to minutes. It gives you flexibility and speed, making it a powerful programming tool."
The overlap and flexible handles might make Avo customers smile but the feature that makes them giddy with joy is the ability to independently adjust the timing of the attributes within a cue. Longtime Avo user Sheldon says, "It may not be big for others, but for Avo people this is great." Warren acknowledges that that feature has been lacking in Avo consoles: "We tried to look at not just our strengths but the weaknesses. We looked at some of the constraints of our timing methods and worked on improving things. We are pleased to offer the multiple times for the attributes, which, to be honest, we are behind on. I am also pleased with the fact that, in the D4 series, we have preloaded a lot of the palettes so you can select a group of lights, apply a color, put a time on it, apply a position, put a time on it, and that all runs live. It is not something you have to preprogram." Rob Steele, president of Avolites America, agrees that the strength of the Diamond 4 is in the addition of these long-awaited features: "The D4 offers all the things about which people have often said, 'If you had these features we would look at you.' These include complex timing functions, theatrical functions — like the fact that this is a tracking console — wireless remote control. All the high-tech features are there now and we hope people will take a new look at Avolites."
If you are planning on looking at a Diamond 4 console you will be glad to hear that most users have found they have a quick learning curve. This ease is by design, says Steele: "It is very intuitive. The board leads you through things and gives you prompts. All our boards have had this philosophy, to help work the users through the process. We have always tried to keep things simple. We don't want people to get lost in the boards." Should you find yourself a little lost, however, then you can just take advantage of Avolites' customer support. "We try hard to do a good job of support," says Steele. "I can appreciate the need to be able to talk to somebody right away and to get answers. We try to let our users know that we appreciate their choice; one of the best ways to do that is by supporting them." LD Mike Le Ferve chose the Diamond 4 Elite specifically because of Avolites' support when he used it for the BBC show Fightbox, "As a company, they have always operated with an open-door policy. It is a company wide attitude, they listened to what I needed and even responded by suggesting more options and creating more control for me."
Avolites understands what people expect of them and Warren feels the Diamond 4 consoles measures up to those expectations, "Our history goes with us. Our user groups and what we are confident in doing is always there. It is a difficult balance, because you can't leave behind the loyal users when you attempt to create something that can also move into new areas." Sheldon would assure them they got the balance right, "Anything Avo does they just improve on what they did before. This board really helps to fulfills the Avo motto of 'From Rock to Opera'."

Tucson Police released the identity of a person of interest involved in the burglary incident prior to the shooting of Tucson Sgt. Robert Carpenter.
Carpenter, 46, was shot in the head early Sunday after he and several other officers responded to a residential burglary near Broadway and Alvernon. It was the second time that morning the alarm at the same residence went off.
It was after the first alarm, around 1:45 am, that officers made contact with the person of interest. According to police, Richard "Ricky" Mendoza, 29, is believed to be the suspect seen fleeing the home on East Elmwood Street.
Investigators say he was staying at the Randolph Park Hotel on Alvernon Way on Monday evening. The SWAT team and investigators responded to the hotel to locate and detain Mendoza. Police searched his hotel room and vehicles in the parking lot.
Mendoza was arrested for first and second degree burglary. The investigation regarding the shooting of Carpenter is still ongoing.
Tucson Police and 88-CRIME are offering a reward up to $26,000 for information leading to an arrest of the individual (s) responsible for the shooting.
The reward money is a result of contributions by 88-CRIME, the Arizona Attorney General's Office, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, the United States Marshal's Service, the Office of National Drug Control Policy, and various private citizens who wish to remain anonymous.
Tucson Sgt. Maria Hawke said, "The Tucson Police Department is extremely appreciative of the outpouring of support from the community as well as other law enforcement entities in the minutes, hours, and days since the critical shooting of Sergeant Robert Carpenter."

PEORIA, Ill -- Some area residents are giving IDOT their opinions on the future of biking in Illinois.
Tuesday night, nearly 50 people attended one of IDOT's nine meetings across the state to gather public input on a long-term bike transportation plan.
Research and public input gathered at those meetings will be presented to officials in December. After that I-DOT will work on implementation.
Project manager, Gabe Sulkes said several of the ideas won't cost a lot of money, including improving efficiency, design and safety. "What we're hearing time and again is just education and enforcement from both sides of the coin, motorists and cyclists really need to understand the rules of the road and need to have those rules properly communicated and enforced."

Jay Bruce homered off Burke Badenhop with one out in the 10th inning on Friday night, rallying the Cincinnati Reds to a 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in a game full of errors and wasted chances.
It was Cincinnati's second straight extra-inning game. The Reds fell 6-5 in 14 innings at Wrigley Field on Thursday, leaving their bullpen depleted.
Bruce connected on a 1-2 pitch from Badenhop (0-3) for his fifth game-ending homer. Alfredo Simon (5-2) retired the side in the 10th.
The teams combined for five errors -- including a season-high three by Cincinnati. Bronson Arroyo hit Martin Maldonado with the bases loaded to force in a run, and Maldonado homered off him to tie it in the eighth.

Manchester man jailed for best friend's death in fatal 2011 crash
Mathieu's mother, Lynette Shinsato, told Judge Kenneth McHugh how she asked John Mitchell, 25, to be the designated driver on the night of the Oct. 23, 2011 crash, and is struggling with forgiveness after Mitchell tried to trick police into thinking he was not behind the wheel.
"My faith and my belief system have been shaken," Shinsato said. "Will God forgive me for not forgiving the actions of another?"
Mitchell pleaded guilty to negligent homicide, aggravated drunken driving and reckless conduct on Nov. 29 for killing Mathieu and injuring another passenger. Mathieu was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, after Mitchell's 2006 Honda Civic went off of Old Manchester Road in Derry about 1:50 a.m., struck a tree and rolled over.
Assistant County Attorney Brad Bolton argued for a six- to 12-year sentence, saying the broken promise to Mathieu's mother, and Mitchell's claim of not being the driver warranted a longer-than-average prison term.
"That kind of shows you something - what type of character, what type of man he is," Bolton told McHugh in Rockingham County Superior Court.
Mitchell climbed into the back seat and maintained - even while at the hospital - that someone else drove the vehicle, Bolton said.
Another passenger, Brooke Scott, 20, was injured during the crash.
Anthony Mathieu was one of three brothers who served in the military during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. A 2005 graduate of Memorial High School in Manchester, Mathieu enlisted in the Marines and served two tours of duty in Iraq between 2007 and 2008.
He had been out of the service for two years, going to college at Southern New Hampshire University and working at his family business, Capital Auto Auction in Manchester, at the time of the crash, according to his mother.
Mitchell turned to Shinsato in court and apologized for his actions, saying she and Mathieu had been like a second family to him.
"To say I left a brother behind, I can't refute that," he said, "but I loved Anthony, no matter what my poor judgment shows. For the rest of my life, I will love him."
McHugh spoke about the challenges he has faced in crafting sentences for negligent homicide cases during his 35 years on the bench, especially when there was no intent to end someone's life.
He said if he knew that a 50-year sentence would bring Mathieu back, "I would impose that sentence. That would probably be true justice."
McHugh said while a four-year minimum might sound like a light punishment to some, "Mr. Mitchell will be associated with a whole of bad people. It's not a lifestyle he is used to."

The WNBA's current collective bargaining agreement is set to expire before the end of the WNBA's playoffs setting up an unusual situation.
The deal ends Sept. 30 and the finals won't start until a week later.
It's uncommon for a major sports league to play without a CBA. Baseball's CBA ended in 1993 and the players went on strike in August that season after playing the first few months. That strike wiped out the 1994 World Series.
WNBA league officials aren't concerned that there would be any interruption once the contract expires.
In the past the CBA always expired after the season ended. When the current CBA was signed in 2008 a Sept. 30 date was set. There was never an expectation that the postseason would end later than that.

Pura Ulun Danu Bratan Lake

Pura Ulun Danu Bratan Lake
Pura Ulun Danu Bratan, or Pura Bratan, is a major Shivaite and water temple on Bali, Indonesia. Built in 1663, this temple is used for offerings ceremony to the Balinese water, lake and river goddess Dewi Danu, due to the importance of Lake Bratan as a main source of irrigation in central Bali. The 11 stories of pelinggih meru dedicated for Shiva and his consort Parvathi. Buddha statue also present inside this temple. Pura Ulun featured in Indonesian banknote Lake Bratan is known as the Lake of Holy Mountain due to the fertility of this area. Located 1200 m above sea level, it has a cold tropical climate. -wikipedia-

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

QB Robert Griffin III already has had a great effect on the Redskins before playing a single game. But now that he is signed, sealed and delivered, Griffin's on-field effect soon will begin.
We've talked about his laser arm. We have discussed his sprinter's legs. But what has gone overlooked is his effect on the rest of the offense, namely the run game.
The Redskins averaged a very pedestrian 100.9 rushing yards per game (ranked 25th) and 4.0 yards per carry (22nd) in 2011, and it would be surprising if both numbers did not go up, and not just because of Griffin's scrambling and designed-run ability.
One primary reason would be better health at running back. Another would be the presence of Griffin and the threat of him opening things up for the backs.
A former Broncos assistant who spent time on Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan's staff in Denver (and who requested anonymity because his current team plays the Redskins this season) told PFW this week that Griffin and his unique set of skills will change the dynamic of the Redskins' run game.
"I am still trying to figure out if the kid (Griffin) is a special quarterback, but you watch, they'll bootleg and play action off that (outside) zone series and it will mess up some (defensive assignments)," the assistant said. "You have to respect the run, but you also have to honor (Griffin's) athleticism."
The stretch or zone running play is a Shanahan staple. He has made some not-so-special runners — outside of Terrell Davis and Clinton Portis — look very good with a system that involved agile, cut-blocking linemen; one-cut runners who hit the hole quickly; and athletic quarterbacks who were a threat outside the pocket, either scrambling or throwing downfield.
"They'll move it very well, pull a guard or a center, make it look like a run," the coach said. "This will be after they have run the stretch that way once or twice, (to) get the defense thinking a little. Then they'll either have the high-low pass play off the bootleg, or they'll run it naked."
Griffin comes to the pros with the reputation of being an excellent deep thrower, too, and if he can establish connections downfield, it will prevent safeties from edging up closer to the line of scrimmage.
"It will kill teams," the coach said. "Pretty soon you start thinking only about the quarterback; you tell your guys to stay home more, and that's when the backs will dice you up."
That's good news for Tim Hightower, Roy Helu and Evan Royster. None appear to be special runners, but each has qualities to fit this offense and could take advantage of Griffin's athletic skills. Helu, if he stays healthy, has the most outside burst. Hightower and Royster hit the hole hard and are uncreative but strong inside runners. Their skills, though, might have just gotten a little better with a different quarterback on the field.

I just received the ring today, I've never had a bridal set and decided to get something I could wear without the fear of it getting lost of damaged but still show the quality I desired. I have to say this ring is spectacular. It really catches the light and the make is absolutely gorgeous. It makes me feel as though I have a lot more money than I do! I have already had complements on it and I have to say it's even so comfortable I could wear it everyday without it feeling too bulky or becoming a problem. I am extremely pleased!
This ring is beautiful, would recommend to anyone with larger hands and fingers. Unfortunately I will be returning this set as I do not have that large of fingers. I have already ordered different set that is smaller and can't wait for it to arrive! This ring looks real and again is very beautiful, wish I had bigger fingers!
Loved the ring i've had it for 4 months wear it everyday and its still gorgeous.
The ring is gorgeous and I have recevied many compliments every time I wear it! It has lots of sparkle and looks great! Very nice ring for the price!
Those who purchase this ring will be amazed. My husband purchased this for me as a gift. When I saw it in person it took my breath away. This ring is beautiful. It looks better in person than it does on picture.
I was so excited when I got my ring. It is beautiful! Unfortunately, after only a few weeks, 2 of the stones fell out and I had no idea when it happened so I couldn't even glue them back in. I returned the ring and did not get a replacement ring for fear that the same thing would happen again. I am so disappointed because the ring is just beautiful.
This set is big and bulky. I do not like how it looks nor how it feels when I wear it.
This ring is beautiful, but its just too much bling for me. More fancy than I needed and also runs a little big!. I wish I could have pulled it off, but its gorgeous and very sparkly. I sent it back.
Nice ring for a starter ring the quality is good for the price I hope it lasts longer than a year.
I loved the ring but it was just a bit too big for my taste. Needed something to wear while my current rings are being redesigned. I returned it for something a bit smaller and not so 'in your face'.

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. briefly felt faint following today's NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Loudon. He was dehydrated after suffering from an illness all week and was taken to get fluids at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway infield care center.
Here's what he said after leaving the care center (transcript courtesy of Ford Racing):
"I feel OK now. They gave me some fluids and got good to go. I think just being a little sick all week, not eating much and not drinking enough fluids caught up with me after the race. I think we'll be good to go now.
I've felt it all week being really tired, not eating and not drinking any fluids so that part of it I definitely felt it in the race car, but I don't think it slowed us down any. When I'm in there, I'm driving as hard as I can every lap.
I got sick after the race in Daytona on Friday night and kind of let it go throughout the weekend and was hoping it would get better, but it never did. It's probably my fault that we ended up like this.
The good thing is (next week at Chicagoland) is a Sunday race, so I've got all week to get the fluids in me and get better. Hopefully, within the next couple days I'll feel a little bit better and eat a little bit more. I normally drink plenty of fluids and never have the issue of getting light-headed after the race or anything like that.
My throat hurt throughout the whole week. I didn't really want to drink or eat anything and it caught up with me. Yesterday and today I drank plenty of fluids, but you've got to do it before, so I think we should be OK for Chicago."

In November of 2012, General Conway's Cybercrimes investigators became aware of an unknown individual accessing an unsecured wireless connection in Lexington. Following an extensive investigation, investigators tracked the unauthorized access to Hentzen's residence in Lexington. Cybercrimes investigators uncovered suspected child pornography during the execution of a search warrant at Hentzen's home.
The Attorney General's investigation is ongoing, and additional charges are likely. Assistance in this case was provided by the Lexington Police Department. The Office of Fayette County Commonwealth's Attorney Ray Larson is handling the prosecution of Hentzen.
Since its creation in June of 2008, General Conway's Cybercrimes Unit has launched more than 300 child pornography investigations and seized more than 360,000 child pornographic images and videos from the Internet. The unit is also a member of the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.
