Those of us who go back more than a couple of decades in law enforcement understand the dramatic evolution of SWAT in the United States. The very first asset developed in the aftermath of incidents like the Texas Tower killing spree committed by Charles Whitman in 1966 was trained marksmen called Counter Snipers.
When Counter Snipers proved unable to deal with heavily armed felons who barricaded themselves in a building, SWAT teams evolved and began the long, steep learning curve of making entry into a hostile indoor environment.
In the beginning of SWAT, in the 1970s, only major cities invested the manpower and money needed to create such specialized teams. Now we see SWAT teams fielded by agencies that, in my opinion, have no business "playing" in so costly and dangerous a "game."
Multi-Jurisdictional Teams
One raid frequently cited in the media as a gross overreach is the use of a U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and U.S. Department of Justice SWAT team to raid the Gibson Guitar company in 2009. The raid itself still has political overtones, but the law violation in question involved the use of illegally imported rare woods. The raid involved the seizure of lumber and years of importation paperwork, not some immediate threat to life. Further, there was no reason to suspect Gibson would be anything but cooperative.
They used a SWAT team to raid a guitar business for records of illegal wood importation? No one is a bigger proponent of law enforcement than I am, but… really? We need to take a step back, draw a deep breath, and reassess the role SWAT plays in some law enforcement settings.
Many years ago, I published an article in the old Police Marksman magazine that laid out manpower and training guidelines for multi-jurisdictional SWAT teams in rural areas. It was the result of some deep thinking by several of us who had worked in small communities where we lacked enough resources to create a legitimate SWAT team of our own and had no statewide team to call for assistance. Several multi-jurisdictional teams in rural areas were formed on that template and still operate successfully today.
We decided a minimum police "population" of 100 officers was needed to establish a minimally effective team. So, if you couldn't combine enough small agencies to get up to the 100-officer level, we recommended you develop a mutual-aid pact with a more capable team for the day when a barricade/hostage entry situation might develop in your jurisdiction.
I know of a couple of 10- to 12-officer agencies who have a "SWAT" team. A 12-officer SWAT team is too small to be fully effective for more than a couple of hours.
Further, most experts agree that not every cop on the street is made of SWAT "stuff." In fact, probably less than 10 percent of the officers in most agencies have the physical and emotional skill set necessary for elite SWAT assignments.
Incredible Assetts
Creating a SWAT team in a small agency, or in an agency that rarely deals with emergency response to life-threatening incidents, only invites criticism that you are becoming too "militarized."
The huge influx of money and equipment after 9/11 saw many new teams formed and many existing teams outfitted with incredible (I mean that word literally: "beyond credibility") assets.
One of my proudest accomplishments was being a leader of the patrol rifle movement started in the early 1980s. But, gun guy than I am, I wonder how many SWAT teams really need a belt-fed .30 caliber machine gun or a .50 BMG sniper rifle for police use? Such gear is needed by the paramilitary security forces deployed at nuclear facilities, but they are generally private security contractors, not traditional law enforcement units.
I've also been a leader in the Rapid Deployment 2.0 movement, which led to programs like the NTOA's MACTAC training. But combating a team of Mumbai-style terrorists loose in your community will be a patrol fight, not a SWAT fight. I fear the massive armored cars and 12-man assault boats will be of questionable use in a running gun battle with terrorists who are using small arms and IEDs.
My philosophy has been (and remains) that small agencies of fewer than 100 officers simply cannot field enough qualified SWAT-level officers for an adequate team. By joining agencies together to reach the 100-officer population goal, we can allow for adequate selection standards and training cycles. Holding to a minimum police population standard also helps to ensure the team gets enough work to avoid rolling on calls where a SWAT presence isn't necessarily appropriate.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Supporters of a bill that would make cancer drugs more affordable in Wisconsin are not giving up hope that the measure can still pass the Legislature this year.
The proposal would require insurance plans overseen by the state to provide coverage for expensive forms of chemotherapy drugs that patients take as pills rather than injections.
Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald has refused to allow the bill to come up for a vote, even though a majority of senators support it.
Backers of the bill say they are encouraged that the measure was moved Friday into a different Assembly committee, a sign that action could be taken on it there.
The Assembly plans to adjourn for the year on Thursday.

Father's 75th Birthday Trip to NYC
Hi all,
I'm taking my father to NYC in the fall for his 75th birthday and I was wondering if you could recommend some restaurants. We were last in NYC about three years ago and we had varying success. We went to Chantrelle, Four Seasons and Fiama Osteria(sp?). I like all cuisines but my father is originally from Ireland and so he is pretty much a meat and potatoes guy...his idea of exotic food is Spagetti Bolognese. I am thinking probably along the lines of a great classic French Restaurant, old fashioned Italian and perhaps a great seafood place. Btw being a stodgy 75 year old he doesn't like loud places.
How about Le Bernardin? Top notch fish/seafood / comfortable quiet room / excellent service / expensive but for a big occasion worth it...
re: MMRuth
My review of Grenouille - http://www.chowhound.com/topics/show/...
re: bobby06877
To be honest I don't think he was particularily enamoured with any of them. I think the best meal he had was probably at Chantrelle but he would probably tell you that it was bit too nouveau for his liking. He very much liked the menu at the Four Seasons but in the end they failed to deliver. As for Fiamma Osteria I think he enjoyed it but I think he was looking for his Spagetti Bolognese. We did plan to go to Le bernadin but we were not able to make it. The last time we were in London he thourougly enjoyed La Gavroche and Angela Hartnett's.
re: ceeceee
He loves good pub grub, especially a good Steak and Kidney pie.
re: Hart50
st dymphna's on astor place might be a nice little spot for an irish breakfast...
I think MMRuth's suggestion of La Grenouille is a good one. After all, it is the last of the great NYC classic French restaurants of a certain era. I'm almost ashamed to admit that I've never been there, but I recently put it on my "must go to" list for the fall.
Speaking of classic French restaurants, La Cote Basque is gone, having been replaced by Brasserie LCB. However, chef/owner Jean-Jacques Rachou continues to produce excellent versions of French classics in the same space that he refurbished a couple of years ago as a brasserie, albeit an upscale one. Service remains very polished and, while the beautiful murals are gone, the decor that replaced them is actually quite handsome. You can view the menu on menupages.com.
If your dad likes meat and potatoes, he would probably enjoy going to Keens. Not only are the steaks, chops, sides, etc., well-prepared and delicious, but I'm sure he'll appreciate the old New York ambiance, i.e., walls filled with memorabilia and rows of clay smoking pipes supsended from all the ceilings + pipes belonging to famous people displayed in cases in the vestibule.
Here's wishing your dad a very happy 75th birthday!
How about something like 21 which has an elegant, but casual vibe to it. Went with a group recently and those who were older liked it. Pricey, but so are the others on your list.
I agree with Peter Luger... or any of the other amazing steakhouses in Manhattan. Steak Frites? Strip House? I would consider Blue Water Grill, but it can be loud. Grammercy Tavern is another worth looking into. (in my opinion). There is a small Italian place on 22nd called Arezzo that has wonderful food and is not too loud. I have been there a few times and was never disappointed. Just some thoughts... One more - Angelo & Maxies.
re: chef auletta
Have to strongly disagree that Steak Frites is an "amazing steakhouse." In fact, it's not really a steak house at all, but more bistro. Plus there are the service issues that I have had and that have been reported heavily on this board.
re: Lucia
Lucia is correct that Steak Frites is a bistro, not a steakhouse. What's more, in addition to the service issues, the food is mediocre.
Angelo & Maxie's is definitely not in the top tier of steakhouses as far as the quality of the steaks are concerned. Plus, when the room is packed, the noise level is so horrendously high that having a normal conversation around a table is next to impossible, to say nothing of leaving with a giant headache.

MLB players' union concludes Melky Cabrera's agents unaware of scheme
ASSOCIATED PRESS November 6, 2012 7:14PM
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. — The baseball players' union concluded Melky Cabrera's agents didn't know about a scheme to create a phony website in a defense of his positive drug test but said they failed to properly manage the employees of the firm who tried to carry out the scheme.
Brothers Sam and Seth Levinson, the heads of ACES Inc., were probed by the Major League Baseball Players Association after MLB's investigations department discovered the attempt to concoct evidence. Cabrera, the MVP of the All-Star game, was suspended 50 games in August after testing positive for testosterone.
Union head Michael Weiner says: "After a thorough investigation, we concluded none of the ACES principals were involved in or had knowledge of the Cabrera scheme."

Windows 7
How do I decrypt with Truecrypt?
I had certain partition on my HDD. I encrypted 1 whole partition using TrueCrypt. The partition is NOT where the Windows is installed.
Now, I can Mount and Open the partition using the password which I mentioned earlier.
What do I have to do to get the original partition decrypted and back as normal partition in HDD.
I have some data in the partition, so I haven't tried anything by myself. By the TrueCrypt website, as I think they are saying is, mount the drive and just drag the files (or copy-paste the files) and they will be decrypted. Is that correct?
I also had some programs installed in that partition, so where should I paste all the files? Do I need to create a new partition and paste everything there?
Using Win 7 64b.
What I am assuming is.....
Copy all files to another partition. They'll decrypt on the fly.
Format the partition.
Copy back all the files to this formatted partition.
Will the programs already installed in this partition will then work fine?
Just making sure before doing anything, as I have data on that partition.
|My System Specs
|17 Nov 2011
Your assumption is correct.
Your programs should work fine, yes.
|My System Specs
|18 Nov 2011
Windows 7 x64 SP1
You might have confused the decrypting bit that refers to encrypting the OS partition. This can be encrypted and decrypted. Normal encrypted partitions act like virtual disks so any data stored on then can be copied (as unencrypted) elsewhere once mounted. You might have problems with installed programs since these will possibly have registry entries which will conflict with new locations. It might be OK if they are standalones and do not affect the registry. But as previous comments if location doesn't change then there probably won't be a problem.

A. Borek
MILLVILLE- Francis (Frank) Andrew Borek, a lifelong resident of Millville, MA., died at Beaumont Nursing Home in Northbridge, MA. on August 22, 2012 at the age of 93.
Frank was born on January 13, 1919, the son of Joseph and Mary (Bozek) Borek.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Shocking rate hikes piling up
Manitoba Hydro is raising electricity rates May 1 by 3.5 per cent, taking another $48 million out of ratepayers' pockets. This is an early instalment in dramatic rate hikes to pay for the utility's aggressive plans to build new dams and a transmission line that are blowing past all cost projections.
And here's the rub: A big chunk of the cash will be hived off, on order of the Public Utilities Board, to a savings account to buffer the rate shock that will hit once the Bipole III transmission line comes into service. This year alone, $20.4 million will go into a kitty that will accumulate -- hundreds of millions of dollars -- until 2025.
The PUB ordered the account set up out of pointed concern for Hydro's declining financial health. Debt is rising, revenues falling and costs are up steeply -- in five years, Hydro has hired 771 full-time-equivalent positions, adding $197 million to its payroll. Meanwhile, power sales to the United States have dropped precipitously: Net export revenues are now expected to add up to $5.8 billion by 2029, down from $12.2 billion forecasted four years ago.
Critics have raised alarms about the utility's development plans and the financing implications. A responsible business would cut costs. Instead, Hydro is banking on annual rate increases of 3.95 per cent for the next 20 years.
An obvious cut is to the cost of Bipole III -- $1 billion could be saved by building it on the original route east of Lake Winnipeg. The route was moved west of Lake Manitoba on the edict of an NDP government that caved to environmentalists who lobbied for a wilderness gem that is nevertheless seeing a road carved through it.
The waste is symptomatic of a fiscal culture bred by a government that has proved impervious to the financial burden it loads on ordinary Manitobans. The PUB has given a small taste of the enormous expense of the foolish Bipole III decision. Manitobans should consider the Opposition Tories' promise they would reverse that decision to save them the compounded misery.
Editorials are the consensus view of the Winnipeg Free Press' editorial board, comprising Catherine Mitchell, David O'Brien, Shannon Sampert, and Paul Samyn.

Archived Story
Six honored at DMSPublished 8:42am Tuesday, March 16, 2010
Dowagiac Board of Education honored February Citizens of the Month Monday night at the middle school, including DMS sixth grader Elizabeth Stockwell, Sister Lakes fourth grader Kevin Milliken, Union High senior Cody Cox, Kincheloe's Karsen Kinyon, Patrick Hamilton kindergartner Elizabeth Ballge and Justus Gage third grader Ryan Fester.
Elizabeth Stockwell
Elizabeth, 11, is a sixth grader and the daughter of Denise and Gene Stockwell. She has a brother, Jonathan, 9, at Kincheloe, and a sister, Olivia, 20 months old.
She enjoys ballet, tap, lyrical, jazz and clogging dance, cooking for the family and reading fiction – especially books by Scott O'Dell.
Her favorite class is social studies.
Her favorite teacher is Ms. Horrell.
Elizabeth was nominated by seventh grade English teacher Mrs. Cromer, who has known her since she was a baby.
Elizabeth has no idea what she wants to be when she grows up.
She is also undecided on where she wants to go to college.
Elizabeth thinks her best assets are she is nice and always tells the truth.
Mrs. Cromer added, "I nominated Elizabeth because she represents her class with grace and is an outgoing young lady. She is a representative on the DMS Student Council, which I sponsor. She is always willing to help and brings great ideas to the council. She has a joyful attitude and is a delight to work with. Elizabeth also has great respect toward her classmates and adults. Elizabeth was also a member of the DMS Spelling Bee team this year. She is an outstanding individual."
Kevin Milliken
Kevin lives with Grandpa and Grandma Lear and has one brother, Joseph, 6. His Aunt Shannon is a very important person in his life, too.

Cody Cox
Cody is the son of Chris and Kara Cox. He was nominated by Band Director C.J. Brooks.
Brooks said, "It would not be possible to choose just one thing to nominate Cody for.
Cody's leadership skills are matched by not many other seniors. His willingness to go above and beyond the status quo is something he is always willing to do. Often, there are times when Cody comes in to practice during lunch, and even before and after school to help out in almost any way possible. His role in band consists of a very important position, percussion section leader. Unlike any other section in the band, Cody must teach five or six different instruments simultaneously. This has not only allowed him to become a great leader, but a great teacher.
"Cody's percussion skills allowed him to become section leader in the Southwest Michigan Music Ambassadors program and tour Europe for two weeks. His maturity and professionalism have also allowed him to lead in our Chieftain Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Band and percussion ensembles.
"And, if all of this is not enough, Cody has also served as captain of the football, basketball and baseball teams. Currently, he is preparing five audition nieces for acceptance into the music program at Michigan State," Brooks said, adding, "Although I have only had the pleasure of working with Cody for two years, I have come to depend on him not only as a musician and leader, but as a kind, caring person. His passion for music is always inspiring to other students as well as me. It is with great honor and pride that I nominate Cody Cox for Citizen of the Month."
Cody was Dowagiac Union High School's "Good Citizen" recognized by Capt. Samuel Felt Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). His essay was selected as the best in Cass County.

The former "Hannah Montana" scored her first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single with "Wrecking Ball" Wednesday. Cyrus had come as close as one can in the past, reaching No. 2 with her songs "We Can't Stop" and "Party in the U.S.A.," but never got the top spot until now.
In doing so, "Wrecking Ball" broke through Katy Perry's "Roar, the previous No. 1.

"Wrecking Ball" has been living up to its name, also shattering the Spotify record for biggest week for a single track, with 2.5 million streams in the U.S.
The music video for the song — which sees a naked Cyrus riding the titular swinging construction contraption and licking a sledgehammer — also broke VEVO's record by delivering 100 million views in just six days.
The video, released on Sep. 9, garnered 19.3 million views in 24 hours, also the best ever. Cyrus broke her own "We Can't Stop" record on that one, which was an impressive, but far longer 37 days.
Cyrus' new album "Bangerz" comes out Oct. 8.

Technical Approach
The vision of the COMPOSE project is to advance the state of the art by integrating the IoT and the IoC with the IoS through an open marketplace, in which data from Internet-connected objects can be easily published, shared, and integrated into services and applications. The marketplace will provide all the necessary technological enablers, organized into a coherent and robust framework covering both delivery and management aspects of objects, services, and their integration.
Expected Impact
COMPOSE strives for a strong impact on a developing market by lowering barriers to develop, select, combine, and use IoT-based standardized value added services. This will be achieved by providing a complete ecosystem, and having it adopted by enterprises, SMEs, government-related bodies, and individual developers and end-users.
Use-Case Driven
COMPOSE design, development, and validation will be based on innovative use cases highlighting different aspects of the platform.
Among the use cases:
- Smart Shopping Spaces
- Smart City (Barcelona)
- Smart Territory (Trentino)

Dancing with the Stars' Peta Murgatroyd and James Maslow may or may not be dating, and Erin Andrews was determined to find out on the show last night.
It was momentarily uncomfortable in the ballroom at the 7:00 mark ...
The new Dancing With the Stars co-host went in for the kill after James' performance which Cheryl Burke (his partner for one "switch up" night only).
"It sounds like we have a little bit of talking to do," she said to the duo. "Can I just ... can you tell us you're dating? I want a Dancing With the Stars baby!"
"You're adorable! C'mon, who doesn't want this?"
Erin Andrews' questioning didn't go over so well.
"Oh my God," Peta replied, as she wiped her brow uncomfortably. Maslow added: "You can't have a baby while you're dancing, alright? So that's not gonna happen."

It's not every day the First Lady of the United States is seen dancing to the beats of a top chanteusse.
But after standing on the sidelines watching students perform a dance routine to Move Your Body, Michelle Obama could not resist joining in.
After her initial reluctance - due to not wanting to "embarrass" herself - the 47-year-old showed the children from Alice Deal Middle School in Washington how it's done.
"It's about dancing, it's about moving," she said afterwards.
Her dance moves were for the video entitled Let's Move Flash Workout, part of her campaign which aims to get children moving to try to curb childhood obesity.
With one-third of the nation's children estimated to be overweight, the mum-of-two's goal is to contribute towards solving the problem.

There's a new home for workers at South Bend Animal Control.
Plus it's hopefully just a temporary yet nicer one for all the adoptable animals that will be housed there.
The new South Bend Animal Control Shelter is now open.
Workers recently moved all of the animals over from the old shelter. The old one has now been vacated.
It's just a soft opening since some tweaks still need to make before the official ribbon cutting. But the public is welcome to see the shelter.
It's nearly four times the size of the old one, giving many more animals a better chance of getting adopted.
"We have a bigger shelter," says South Bend Animal Control Director Gary Libbey. "It's very nice, very friendly. We hope to get more volunteers, and move more animals out of here."
The new shelter has separate rooms for strays and adoptable pets, to prevent diseases from spreading.
It also gives workers easier access to the facility with a garage that leads directly to an intake area.
An official opening ceremony with city officials is expected in about a month.
