P. v. Zapisek
P. v. Zapisek
Filed 6/27/11 P. v. Zapisek CA1/2
California Rules of Court, rule 8.1115(a), prohibits courts and parties from citing or relying on opinions not certified for publication or ordered published, except as specified by rule 8.1115(b). This opinion has not been certified for publication or ordered published for purposes of rule 8.1115
Plaintiff and Respondent,
Defendant and Appellant.
San Francisco City
& County
Super. Ct. No. 169095)
Appellant Paul Zapisek appeals from the May 14, 2010 order extending his involuntary commitment to September 10, 2011 pursuant to Penal Code section 1026.5, subdivision (b) (further references are to the
Penal Code
unless otherwise stated). Appellant's appointed counsel has not identified any appellate issues and asks this court to conduct a review of the
and disposition of the case in accordance with the procedures outlined in
Conservatorship of Ben C.
(2007) 40 Cal.4th 529 (
Ben C
Appellant was originally found not guilty by reason of
of an offense in which he stabbed a stranger whom he believed was the devil on the street in 1997. On April 27, 2009, the San Francisco District
filed a petition to extend appellant's present commitment for two years, to September 10, 2011, pursuant to section 1026.5, subdivision (b). Appellant's commitment was previously extended as well.
Appellant waived his statutory
right to a timely trial
on the present extended commitment petition. On May 14, 2010, appellant personally waived his statutory right to a trial by jury and a bench trial was held that same day regarding the petition. The court sustained the petition and extended appellant's commitment until September 10, 2011. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.
Appellant was 67 years old at the time of the May 2010 bench trial. At the trial, Dr. Anthony S. Rabin, a senior
at Napa State
, was the only witness presented by the People, testifying as an expert in section 1026.5 commitments. Dr. Rabin interviewed appellant in August 2009 in order to assess the risk that appellant would commit violent acts if he was released into the community. Before interviewing appellant, Dr. Rabin reviewed various written reports, including reports prepared in 2009, and also met a second time with appellant to tell him the assessment results. Before testifying, Dr. Rabin reviewed the latest interdisciplinary notes and a September 2009 physician's progress report regarding appellant, and spoke with appellant's treatment team.
Dr. Rabin testified that appellant suffered from schizoaffective disorder, which caused appellant difficulty perceiving reality and "rather severe" mood swings that affected his impulse control. Dr. Rabin's diagnosis was based on appellant's history of delusional beliefs. These included that appellant claimed to have "millions and millions of dollars," to be married, and to have two sets of identical twins that were four and six years old, although he had been in the hospital for over 10 years. Appellant also exhibited paranoia, believing people were trying to harm him, including the Republican Party, Ronald Reagan, and George Bush; and he stabbed a stranger whom he believed was the devil in 1997. In his interview, appellant told Dr. Rabin that his 1997 belief was a hallucination, but also said it had occurred because the Republican Party had tainted his medication.
Dr. Rabin further testified that appellant denied having a mental illness, could not name his children, claimed to own a number of mansions, including Aaron Spelling's house, said the Republican Party was poisoning his medications, and said he had been visited by two Obama Administration representatives with duffel bags full of weapons who said they would protect him. He told Dr. Rabin that he sent Dr. Rabin's soul to another place by clicking his fingers during the interview.
Dr. Rabin also testified that records indicated appellant had said he had flown President Obama and others to a spaceship by snapping his fingers; had said the year before the trial that a psychologist in his unit was the devil, as he had said of his victim in 1997; and had refused to take his medication on a number of days earlier in 2010.
Dr. Rabin concluded that appellant had stabbed a stranger in 1997 because of his schizoaffective disorder, which was consistent with "persecutory paranoid delusional beliefs" and "problems with impulse control." Dr. Rabin concluded that appellant still suffered from this disorder. He also thought that appellant posed a substantial danger of physical harm to others because he had a history of serious dangerousness, and continued to show delusional beliefs, including that he was being persecuted. Dr. Rabin believed that appellant, were he released into the community unsupervised, would stop taking his medication and pursue his delusional beliefs. As a result, he "could be at great risk of creating the same type of event that happened in 1997," which would create risk for anyone in San Francisco given that appellant had stabbed a stranger.
Dr. Rabin also used actuarial instruments to evaluate the danger appellant posed to other people, they being the Violence Appraisal Guide (VRAG), the Hare Psychopathy Checklist (PCLR), and the History or Clinical Risk 20 (HCR-20). The VRAG indicated that appellant presented a "[m]oderately low" risk of recidivism, his score consistent with an original sample group of which 17 percent went on to commit a violent act within seven years, and 31 percent did so within 10 years. Appellant scored very low on the PCLR, but Dr. Rabin indicated that was to be expected because the PCLR was meant just to measure appellant's construct of psychopathy, not his history of mental illness or current symptoms of mental illness. Appellant exhibited evidence of several indicators of dangerousness on the HCR-20, including active symptoms of mental illness, a lack of insight into his mental illness, and partial nonresponsiveness to treatment, as well as several risk management issues.
Dr. Rabin testified that appellant's alcohol dependence was in institutional remission. Dr. Rabin found no evidence that appellant had committed violent acts recently in his record, and acknowledged that a number of progress reports described him as a gentle man.
Appellant testified, via a videoconference, as the only witness on his behalf. Among other things, appellant testified that at one point the television talked back to him, which was how he got in touch with Ronald Reagan, and that he was "dogged" by the Republicans. He told the court it could listen to him on the evening news that evening.
The California Supreme Court concluded in a four-to-three decision that the procedures available in criminal proceedings pursuant to
People v. Wende
(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 are inapplicable to appeals of Lanterman-Petris-Short Act (LPS) conservatorship proceedings (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 5350 et seq.). (
Ben C
, 40 Cal.4th 529.) The majority in
Ben C
. held that "[i]f appointed counsel in a conservatorship appeal finds no arguable issues, counsel need not and should not file a motion to withdraw. Instead, counsel should (1) inform the court he or she has found no arguable issues to be pursued on appeal; and (2) file a brief setting out the applicable facts and the law." (
. at p. 544.) In addition, "[t]he conservatee is to be provided a copy of the brief and informed of the right to file a supplemental brief." (
. at p. 544, fn. 6.) Moreover, even though dismissal of the appeal does not violate the California Constitution, the Court of Appeal has the discretion to "retain the appeal." (
. at p. 544, fn. 7.)
Ben C
., a number of appellate courts have held
review inapplicable to other types of civil commitment appeals as well. For example, in
People v. Dobson
(2008) 161 Cal.App.4th 1422, the Fifth District held that
procedures do not apply to appeals from the denial of a petition for restoration of sanity filed pursuant to section 1026.2. Similarly in
People v. Taylor
(2008) 160 Cal.App.4th 304, the Second District concluded that
review procedures do not apply to appeals from mentally disordered offender extended commitments pursuant to section 2900 et seq.
We are mindful of the dissent in
Ben C.
authored by Chief Justice George and joined by Justices Kennard and Moreno, which stated, "It is undisputed that the private interests at stake are of the most fundamental nature as the conservatee may be subjected to restraints upon physical freedom and personal autonomy for lengthy periods, and may be denied other basic civil rights as well." (
Ben C., supra,
40 Cal.4th. at p. 545.) As the dissent indicated, under the circumstances it is a small matter for the Court of Appeal "to confirm that proper procedures were followed and that the order is supported by sufficient evidence." (
. at p. 555.) As also stated by this dissent, "The majority's holding that independent review is not constitutionally required in LPS appeals in no way prevents the Courts of Appeal from expending the minimal effort required to provide these appeals with a second look and to provide an opinion that briefly notes the court has reviewed the record and that identifies the findings and evidence supporting the order." (
. at p. 556.)
Accordingly, we have reviewed the entire record of these proceedings. We conclude the appellant was represented by counsel at all times, was informed, as far as possible of his rights, that the trial court treated appellant in a considerate fashion and fully informed itself regarding appellant's condition. We are satisfied that the trial court made findings supported by substantial evidence, including the evidence we have summarized, before concluding that it was necessary to extend appellant's commitment.
Our review of the record also confirms that appellant has been notified by his counsel that a brief conforming with the procedures set forth in
Ben C
. would be filed in this case and further advising appellant of his right to personally file a supplemental brief. No supplemental brief has been filed by appellant on his own behalf.
The judgment extending appellant's commitment through September 10, 2011, is affirmed.

If all that holiday shopping has made you hungry, there are lots of new, or new-look, dining options around the East Valley. The Mancuso family's latest concept, Bobby's, just opened at Kierland Commons, Scottsdale Road and Greenway Parkway on the Scottsdale-Phoenix border.
The restaurant's specialties include American continental cuisine with an Italian flair, live jazz seven nights a week and decor that makes you feel like you are in Hollywood.
The family also owns Mancuso's at the Summit, Scottsdale and Ashler Hills roads in north Scottsdale, and Frankie's Little Italy at Scottsdale 101, Scottsdale Road and Loop 101, for those who miss the menus at the family's old Borgata hot spots.
Scottsdale-based Samurai Sam's Teriyaki Grill recently unveiled its new logo, menu and decor at the downtown Tempe restaurant in the Cornerstone Mall, 920 E. University Drive.
The new logo features a more realistic icon representing front man "Samurai Sam" and a more legible font.
The shop redo also includes oversized murals, a new paint scheme, ebony-accented countertops and Japanese paper lanterns.
McDONALD'S MAKEOVER
The McDonald's at Scottsdale and Thomas roads in Scottsdale also completed a big renovation recently. The signature red, yellow and allplastic decor has been replaced with muted hues, copper wall coverings and upholstered settees.
The restaurant's Playland got air hockey, foosball and video games.
McDonald's Corp. announced in March that it planned to spend $725 million this year to refurbish up to 2,160 stores worldwide. Valleywide, 50 restaurants have been re-imaged since 2003 at a cost of $15 million to local owner operators, according to franchisee Jerry Wernau.
Marco's Pizza, a 27-yearold, Ohio-based, take-out-ordelivery chain, opened its first Arizona store at 446 N. Higley Road in Mesa. Watch for more news about this new-to-the-Valley brand, which plans to open stores at Baseline and Gilbert roads in Gilbert, and Arizona Avenue and Ocotillo Road in Chandler within the next couple of months.
We've been telling you for months about Casual Corner's impending demise. Hopefully, if the chain was a favorite shopping stop, you've been taking advantage of the clearance sales.
Local malls are not throwing their longtime tenant a going away bash. Except in court.
Scottsdale Fashion Square and Chandler Fashion Center are among several Arizona shopping centers suing the soon-to-be-defunct chain's owners for defaulting on leases.

Their Heads Are Green and Their Hands Are Blue: Scenes from the Non-Christian World (Paperback)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
Their Heads are Green and their Hands are Blue is an engaging collection of eight travel essays. Except for one essay on Central America, all of these pieces are concerned with locations in the Hindu, Buddhist, or Islamic worlds. A superb and observant traveler, Paul Bowles was a born wanderer who found pleasure in the inaccessible and who cheerfully endures the concomitant hardships with a matter-of-fact humor.
These essays provide us with Paul Bowles' characteristic insightfulness and bring us closer to a world we frequently hear about, but often find difficult to understand.
About the Author
Paul Bowles was born in Queens, New York, in 1910. He began his travels as a teenager, setting off for Paris, telling no one of his plans. In 1930 he visited Morocco for the first time, with Aaron Copland, with whom he was studying music. His early reputation was as a composer and he wrote the scores for several Tennessee Williams plays. Bowles married the writer Jane Auer in 1938, and after the war the couple settled in Tangier. In Morocco Bowles turned principally to fiction. The Sheltering Skyinspired by his travels in the Saharawas a New York Times bestseller in 1950, and has gone on to sell more than 250,000 copies. It was followed by three further novels, numerous short stories, nonfiction, and translations. Bowles died in Tangier in 1999.

Last week I was coming from work at 8 pm and I walked trough the park in the center of my city. It's almost summer so it was full of people, yet this guy (I think he was my age) told me it was "dangerous for a beautiful girl like me to be alone." I just kept walking so he would leave me alone, but he followed me for five blocks asking me for my number, wanting to know if I was single, if the food I was carrying was enough for him too and offering himself to be my bodyguard.
I told him that I was not interested, yet he insisted and I told him to leave me alone, he said "don't be so rude, I just wanted to get to know you" Then I started crying until I finally got to a store that was open and he just went away.
So after this traumatic experience when all I could think while it was happening was "he's going to rape me or murder me", I went to Facebook the next day because I needed to talk about it and maybe get some support. I wrote "So yesterday this guy followed me for five blocks after work, why some people can't accept 'no' for an answer? I never had been so scared in my life" and I received answers (all from girls) like "I feel so lucky that I'm not attractive", "you're a heartbreaker" "you should have gave him a wrong number and problem solved" and when I responded and said I felt threathened, some "friend" told me I was exaggerating, it wasn't that big of a deal.
It was a big deal for me, even tho I (like pretty much every female) have been dealing with this since I was 11. I have social anxiety and this is the kind of thing that I just can't face and I would really like to end forever.

I was walking back to my car down the fairly busy street I live off of, and I was the only person on the side walk. I passed a local Auto College and there were some boys standing on the second level of the dorms. They were all in the dickies uniforms, all had about the same hair cut and one of them yelled down to me: "Hey Gurl, Lemme lick dat butt hole."
Ladies we don't do anything to ignite this behavior, it's a sick way weak guys manipulate a situation to make us feel uncomfortable so they can feel more dominant. On this day I was wearing an oversized flannel on top of my hoodie with black jeans and combat boots.
I didn't think to take a picture but I did a drawing of the situation.

Hollaback! started a petition requesting Burt's Bees change its crudely written labeling. The change.org petition reached 2,000 signatures in only a few days and became a story noted across the blogosphere. We won! Burt's Bees and Gud eventually offered a sincere apology for their offensive marketing and agreed to no longer put such offensive language on future products. Check out the storify here!
Here's what the HOLLAs around the world have been up to:
Hollaback! Boston hosted their last Take Back The Bar event of the year and had a great turnout. They facilitated a workshop at the New England Women's Center Conference about how story sharing contributes to the creation of safer spaces. They're also hosting workshops at two colleges this week: Emerson College last night (Emerson also hosted a HB-themed photoshoot this weekend) and at Tufts University.
Hollaback! Appalachian Ohio delivered four lessons to the 8th graders at Vinton Middle School in McArthur Ohio. HB!AO was featured on Athens Community Television. Devin and Sarah were invited onto an interview show where they spoke on the Sexual Assault Prevention Program, Hollaback Appalachian Ohio!, the 4 D's of self defense and Athens Rock Camp for Girls. It's an hour long, and in two segments, the interview is available on YouTube, as well as being aired EVERY DAY for two weeks starting on Nov 30!
Hollaback! Ottawa held its Cosplay =/= Consent event!
Hollaback Melbourne held a free self defense workshop!
Hollaback Belfast was featured in The Tab and represented at the Outburst Arts Queer Arts Festival. On Sunday, Helen Mcbride of HB!B spoke on a panel discussion about activism following a showing of the movie Lesbiana. As a part of the festival, the team also published a zine!
Hollaback! Alberta was featured on CTV's Alberta Primetime, who hosted an interview with Lauren and Renee on street harassment.
Hollaback! Bosnia & Herzegovina also had an amazing win this week with the first case of street harassment properly reported to police and processed in a court room! A huge step for Sarajevo city!
Congratulations, everyone! Great Work!
HOLLA and out!

I was walking through student housing neighborhoods on my way home to my apartment. I was with another female friend and we passed a house at the same moment that five males came out the front door. We were talking and only glanced at the noise, but one of them shouted "Hey sluts!!" to us.
I instinctively turned around to say something but realized a reaction is what they were seeking. So I turned back around and we kept walking. They continued to shout things at us: rude, insulting comments.
I do not care if they were sober or highly intoxicated – it is not an excuse. Who do these people think they are? How could someone possibly think they have the right to speak to a stranger in such an offensive way? The worst part is that that one word will stick with me forever. I am sure they have forgotten about it and will never think about it again. But I will not forget. How it felt to be talked to in such a way. They don't know me. How dare someone speak to another human being that way. It infuriates me that we live in a world like this.
I am so angry at these monsters that think they can treat women this way. And what's unbearable is that their goal of seeking control is sometimes, it works. Every time this happens to me, I plan a new route, or avoid going out late at night. When I do this, they have gained control over public space by removing my comfort and feelings of safety in that area. How do I stand up against this while still being safe? I am so incredibly frustrated.

Walking back from the fast station, I refused to give six individuals a cigarette so the group decided to follow me all the way home, all the while being screamed at and threatened. It was horrifying.

I was walking to work from my garage when a car pulled over and the driver, a middle-aged man, rolled down his window to catcall at me. This is soooo not the first time this has happened, even in the last week. But I lost my temper today and I stopped to say bewilderingly "does that work for you?!"
The guy got angry and defensive, shouting about how I wouldn't pay attention to him otherwise, and I shouted that it was rude and I didn't want to talk to him, so don't talk to me. He rolled up his window at that point and drove away, and I continued into work.
It sure would be nice to be able to go a week of the one-block-walk from my garage to my office without this happening.

Today, in honor of Transgender Day of Remembrance, we're taking some time to read over a section from our #HarassmentIs publication. These stories highlight many of ways that transfolks experience violence and discrimination in public spaces. At Hollaback!, we believe that everyone should have equal and safe access to public spaces. This Transgender Day of Remembrance we encourage you to share your stories and stand up against street harassment. Let's work together to make spaces safer for everyone.
From pages 29-31 of Harassment Is: An Exploration of Identity and Street Harassment
"I always fancy myself one of the bros. I've struggled with the idea of being transgender, but have a deep rooted belief in loving my body no matter what….but [once I was harassed] ..I didn't feel fear. What I did feel though was humiliation and disconnect. In one comment a complete stranger disrupted my place in my group." – Hollaback!'er
Transgender people may feel that their assigned sex at birth does not match their internal sex or gender. Trans identities, like most identities, exist on a wide spectrum.
Many people exist outside of the either/or of man or women, or come to those identities in different ways. Sadly, a lot of people who identify as trans and/or gender-non conforming face violence, harassment, sexualization, fetishization, and discrimination. Sometimes this violence can be physical, and sometimes it can also be psychological. Imagine what it feels like to not be seen for who you are.
The story below highlights some of the anger, sadness, and frustration that can come along with not being seen as your gender and experiencing street harassment. Elizabeth writes,
"I was walking out of Starbucks and two college-age looking guys yelled "faggot" at me. I am a transgender woman and I have no problem with people noticing that I am a transgender woman. I am very offended when people call me things that I am not. I was so angry that I threw my coffee to the ground and just got in my car and left." http://bit.ly/15U0qMs
The next story sheds light on the very real threat of violence and escalation of street harassment as a trans* person. One Hollaback!'er writes,
"I think often when we speak about transgender issues, that human voice and visibility is missing. Therefore, I feel it is important to share one of my own stories with bathroom harassment. Often when I first was transitioning, I would do my best to avoid public restrooms…When you are transitioning from using the female restrooms to male restrooms a lot changes. You fear going into female restrooms because women constantly tell you that you are in the wrong restroom. They yell at you, and protect their children like you are going to hurt them…See, because as much as we fear that verbal harassment, I now fear the physical assault upon entering the men's restroom. It's hard to confront those who know you or strangers when they state you don't have a penis, this means you are not a man, get out, freak, etc…It's not only the physical threat that scares me when this happens, but the mental damage of constantly feeling threatened or fearing another assault as I choose what uniform to wear any given day: is it the straight male, the gay male, the butch female that will cause me the least harm, and more so why must we choose what option means least harm. Which option will disarm those directing assaults at me."
My partner (a guy) and I enjoy making and wearing costumes (and in my city there is no shortage of costumed events). For Halloween, I had decided to be a video game antagonist known for the huge helmet he wears. While the helmet covered my entire face and most of my torso, anyone could still tell I was a woman because the rest of the costume was an A-line undershirt and a butcher's apron over leggings -not skimpy but you could see my shape.
Because I have a good case of bitch-face and a fast aggressive walk, I rarely get hassled in daily life but while I was an anonymous woman wearing a mask on Halloween, I got the most harassment of my life. Even with my guy standing next to me, randoms would come over to touch me (like I was a Real Doll), to tell me how hot I was even though they couldn't see what I looked like, and when I tilted the helmet to peer at them they would tell me to leave it on, as if I were a fetish object for their pleasure and confronting them with my personhood would ruin their good time.
Even when my partner would intervene they wouldn't stop trying to pick me up until we relocated. Of course, when we had successfully gotten away from one jerk, another would take his place. It's not even as if they knew my character! The worst offenders had no idea what I was even supposed to be, only that I was a woman's body without a visible head. I have never felt so much like a piece of meat in my life. I've never been to a Con but think maybe now I know how the women that attend those might feel.

The mission of the Portland Cello Project is the take the cello (lots of cellos, actually) where no cello has gone before—or pretty damn rarely, anyway, like punk clubs, sports bars, and halftime at Trail Blazers basketball games. That includes an ambitious repertoire of originals, plus daring arrangements of everything from rock to jazz to hip hop from the likes of Bon Jovi, Dave Brubeck, Elliott Smith, Rihanna, and Kanye West. PCP (the group's appropriately addictive acronym) is renowned for epic, unique performances, invariably with distinctive lineups. Here, the seven core Portland cellists will be joined by their percussionist, yet a few more cellists (including Cloud Cult's Sarah Young), possibly an array of horns and winds, plus Portland guitarist/singer/songwriter Laura Gibson, who will also open.

Assemblyman Saladino Applauds Governor's State of the State Message
January 5, 2006
I am pleased that the Governor's message today highlighted some major aspects of the Assembly minority's plan for 2006 including a balanced and timely budget, major tax cuts, great reforms in job creation, and most importantly keeping violent sex offenders off of our streets.
I am happy to learn that today marks the beginning of statewide televised broadcasts of Assembly and Senate Legislative sessions. This is an important step towards opening the legislative process up to our constituents. Now our constituents can watch us deliberate live on television allowing them to see us working for them. I hope by doing so we can educate the public to the process and enlist their help in protecting children. This is the year we will finally pass civil confinement legislation and I will not rest until we do so.

Sugar Bits — Release Date For Valkyrie Pushed Back
by Celebrity 26 Reactions 0 Shares Print
- The release date for Tom Cruise's Valkyrie has been pushed back from July to October 2008, because filming has yet to be completed. This movie has seemed doomed from the start. — Variety
- Jennifer Lopez is apparently so "freaked out" by her pregnancy weight gain that she'll be staying out of the public eye until the birth of her child (or children). While we support this hard-working mom-to-be taking it easy, we have a hard time believing she looks anything but glamorous these days. — The Scoop
- Ashley Tisdale has apologized to her fans for canceling recent holiday shows, saying that the recovery from her nasal surgery has taken longer than expected. Hopefully that "septum surgery" was worth thousands of disappointed teeny boppers. — AshleyTisdale.com
- Ali Larter, who recently spoke about her desire to be married, became engaged to her boyfriend, actor Hayes MacArthur, over the weekend. Congrats to the happy couple! — People
- An arrest warrant for Daniel Baldwin, which was issued after he missed a court date related to a 2006 cocaine arrest, was canceled yesterday after he relayed to a judge that his absence was due to being stuck working in Toronto. Those Baldwin boys always have an excuse. — AP

Oh come on people, Liz Hurley did the same thing when she was pregnant and I don't even think she gained anywhere near as much as 42lbs. Not to mention that some people would celebrate not seeing JLo for a few months. Not me, just some people.

Jillness, I really don't think it was all that much footage that was destroyed. In any case, they've already filmed those scenes again (it was the ones they filmed at the Bendlerblock). Apparently this is about the scene that shows how Stauffenberg was injured while he was in Africa.

Get over yourself JLo- she's ridiculous. I feel like shoving her face in a big plate of Flan!!!

I heard Ashley Tisdale's "Last Christmas" the other day, and all I can say is that I hope she sounds a LOT better in other songs. Because going off just that, she needs to have her vocal chords ripped out.

Can I snark about Ashley Tisdale also? She got an awful nose job that makes her look as though she is inhaling so hard her nose is caving closed. :rotfl:

Why didn't Ashley just wait till the shows were over? :oy:

Valkyrie had a ton of footage that was damaged a couple months ago. It makes sense that they would have to delay. Plus, it is a history movie, and fall is where "smart" movies go. Action movies are better for summer.

If JLo's too heavy to appear in public, then I apparently shouldn't even be leaving my bed in the morning.

CAPE CORAL, Fla.- Interim Cape Coral Fire Chief Don Cochran completed his first full day on the job Monday, after former Chief Tim Hayes resigned suddenly on Friday.
Cochran says he is ready to move the department forward, and the community will not notice any interruptions in service.
He says, "when they call 911 or they ask for service from the fire department, they are going to continue to receive the same level of service they've received in the past."
Cochran is a 23-year veteran of the department and no stranger to the leadership role. He's served as acting chief in the past.
He says, "my expectation is the men and women of this department are going to continue to conduct themselves and respond to emergencies as needed with the same professionalism and customer service."
Cochran takes over after former Chief Tim Hayes resigned suddenly for personal reasons, just a week after he was cleared of allegations he lied on his resume, among other accusations.
"These things happen from time to time in organizations, and I believe we'll be stronger moving forward," Cochran says.
City Manager John Szerlag says, "with his long career and history with the department, I expect he will provide solid leadership to our Cape Coral firefighters and support team." Szerlag says Cochran will serve as interim chief until further notice.
"Any time you have a situation like this, it can arise a distraction but for the most part I would say our troops are out in the field right now, they're doing their jobs, they're responding to calls as we speak. They're going to continue to do what they do and that's what the citizens should be assured by," Cochran adds.

In this week's issue of Grazia our main fashion shoot focuses on the London collections, ahead of London Fashion Week. Gemma Hayward, Senior Fashion Editor, styled the editorial and reveals her inspiration...
'Last September, on the catwalks of London Fashion Week there was a modern tale to tell. Clean lines and graphic prints prevailed, so I used this as inspiration and the starting point for Grazia's London Collections Spring/Summer 2014 fashion shoot.
Christopher Kane's white boxy dress sits perfectly against the vivid block colours of Roksanda Ilinic's pleated creation - and can we take a moment to marvel in the wonder of those Nicolas Kirkwood shoes?. Mary Katranzou's neoprene printed two piece chimes nicely with Fashion East's Claire Barrow's painted plastic mac and Thomas Tait's sporty wears are a fitting match with Erdem's transparent bomber jacket.
When creating the 'look' with the glam team we decided that hair was to be kept simple with a soft texture, which could be tweaked for each shot. Skin was given a fresh, dewy finish with varying neutral tones on the lips.
The London apartment where the shoot was based was stark, white and minimal with a sprinkling of designer furniture in the same vein. Everything had its place – firmly behind a cupboard door! It was the perfect modern backdrop to best show off our pick of the current season.'

SURPRISE, Ariz. — Engel Beltre knows what he might be facing at the end of spring camp — life with another organization.The outfielder can't be optioned to the minor leagues this season without first having to clear waivers, so if he doesn't make the Opening Day roster, he will be exposed to the other 29 teams.The Rangers could deal him, though there have been no serious trade talks at this point in the spring. He could also sneak through waivers and be outrighted to Triple A Round Rock.His agent, Scott Boras, has told him of all the possibilities. The Rangers went through the same thing last year with another Boras client, Julio Borbon, and he was lost to the Chicago Cubs on an early-season waiver claim.Beltre isn't sweating anything out yet."The future is that this is the beginning of my big-league career," said Beltre, who played for the Dominican Winter League champions, Licey, in the off-season. "I'm just trying to take this opportunity and do my job."Beltre is a defensive whiz at all three outfield spots, a left-handed hitter and a speedster. But he's also competing with the promising Michael Choice to be the Rangers' fourth outfielder."Engel probably doesn't fit the roster perfectly," general manager Jon Daniels said. "But there's certainly a feel to preserve our depth and to hold onto him as long as we can and see what happens."

Drew Barrymore
Drew Barrymore in Stella McCartney
Drew Barrymore was seen waving to her fans outside the TV studio after pre-taping a session for Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Los Angeles, California. She was wearing a pair of acid wash skinny Stella McCartney jeans with gold heels and a leather jacket. Something is throwing me off about this outfit, I think it's all of the colours, none are the same and I don't feel like they go well together. I love the jeans though! I've never tried Stella McCartney jeans. Have you? Please click this blog post to view more photos of Drew and close ups of the jeans.
Drew Barrymore in Current/Elliott & Justin Long in a Denim Jacket
On-again couple, Drew Barrymore and Justin Long were seen out doing some grocery shopping. Drew was wearing Current/Elliott leggings with her denim jacket-clad boyfriend Justin. I do like how Current/Elliott leggings are given the same treatment as real jeans and how they are worn by Drew, unlike other denim leggings. What do you think of her look?

Drew Barrymore in Black Orchid
Drew Barrymore was cruising through the Los Feliz flea market wearing a pair of Black Orchid Black Jewel jeans with a Studded Back Pocket. Drew gets a lot of crap for her style, But… I like it. She always looks so comfortable and never sloppy. Do any of you also like Drew's style? On a side note, WOW! her dog has to be the prettiest dog I've seen. Buy these jeans at Singer22.

Hey, speaking of juice, the Post takes an unflinching look at the lives and detoxing routines of New York's "young elite" like twins Daniel and David Koch, who own the magma-hot Toy in the Meatpacking district. The Koch brothers join the ranks of publicists, finance, and fashion personalities who "competitively cleanse," which means they drink a lot of the super-expensive stuff. These people are highly successful, competitive, and stressed out. Theyre cosmopolitan and social and mostly men, says Danielle Pashko, a nutritionist. At least they can get high on antioxidants.

David Goldfield's op-ed on the carnage of the Civil War
'Gangs of New York' depicted the bloody sectarian riots between Protestants and Catholics in that city in 1857.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--We are marking the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War. So what? Most Americans beyond the South are indifferent to the event. Even in the former Confederacy the sesquicentennial has captured only sporadic attention.
That's a pity. The Civil War can tell us a great deal about ourselves, then and now. We have an unfortunate history of plunging into wars for God and democracy that have often made a mockery of both. If we can use this anniversary to learn about why we rush to war, it will be an exercise worth undertaking.
More than 750,000 men died in the Civil War. Extrapolated to today's population, the death toll would be close to 10 million. Consider also the millions who mourned the loss of their husbands, brothers, and sons, and consider those soldiers who survived yet returned home maimed in mind or body. Most historians today would lament the casualties, but commend the outcome: the liberation of 4 million slaves.
I disagree. The Civil War was not a just war. It was a war of choice brought on by the insidious mixture of politics and religion that caused our political process and, ultimately, the nation to disintegrate. The war's outcome did indeed end slavery, but could we have achieved this noble objective without the slaughter? The U.S. was the only slaveholding nation to abolish the institution with a civil war.
Our government governs best from the center and depends upon compromise. By 1861, however, the Bible had replaced the Constitution as the arbiter of public policy, particularly over the issue of extending slavery in the Western territories. Framing slavery as a moral cause rendered compromise unlikely, for you cannot compromise with sin. The party in power, the Republicans, deployed evangelical dogma to raise the stakes of political discourse.
The party's ideology lay within the Second Great Awakening, a national religious revival begun in the early 1800s. Within a generation, nearly 40 percent of Americans who expressed a faith were members of evangelical Protestant denominations. The message of evangelicals was simple: If you accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior, you will be saved and enjoy eternal life in Heaven.
David Goldfield is the Robert Lee Bailey Professor of History at UNC Charlotte and the author of "America Aflame: How the Civil War Created a Nation" (Bloomsbury 2011).

Panthers' GM Dale Tallon bolsters team with former Blackhawks
BY MARK LAZERUS Staff Reporter June 12, 2014 10:18PM
Florida Panthers goalie Roberto Luongo, center, is joined by team CEO and President Rory Babich, left, and general manager Dale Tallon during a news conference Wednesday, March 5, 2014, in Sunrise, Fla. After nearly eight years apart, Luongo was the centerpiece of a four-player trade between Florida and the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. The Panthers sent goalie Jacob Markstrom--once considered their future in net--and forward Shawn Matthias to the Canucks for Luongo and forward Steven Anthony.

Article Extras
NEW YORK — Dale Tallon was holding court on the fourth floor of the Westin in Times Square, surrounded by about a dozen reporters who were, yes, interested in his Florida Panthers. Tallon freely confirmed the six candidates for the Panthers' vacant coaching job, which include recently fired Pittsburgh Penguins coach Dan Bylsma. He spoke openly about his plans for the No. 1 overall pick in the NHL draft later this month, dangling it for all the other GMs to see. He addressed the never-ending debate about expanding replay.
Few GMs left in the league are as open and transparent as Tallon, the former Blackhawks GM who was the architect of the 2010 Stanley Cup champions and who assembled the core that added the 2013 title to its resume. And he's a good fit for a dormant Florida franchise, which needs a cheerleader and an attention-grabber as much as it needs to rebuild a roster that finished 29th in the league.
"I'm very open," Tallon said regarding the top pick. "All I'm looking to do is make a move that benefits our franchise. End of story."
Tallon already has made several such moves, many of them involving Hawks talent that he originally drafted or acquired. There are five ex-Hawks on the Panthers roster. That includes 2010 champs Brian Campbell and Tomas Kopecky, but it also includes three highly regarded Hawks prospects — center Brandon Pirri, winger Jimmy Hayes and defenseman Dylan Olsen.
Pirri, a gifted offensive player, had fallen out of favor with Hawks coach Joel Quenneville. Tallon plucked him away for two draft picks. Hayes and Olsen were stuck in the Hawks system behind a logjam of talented forwards and defensemen. Tallon got them for Kris Versteeg. Tallon drafted Pirri and Olsen in 2009, just two weeks before he was demoted to senior advisor and replaced by Stan Bowman. Hayes was acquired shortly after Tallon left for Florida in May of 2010.
It helps, of course, to have a good working relationship with Bowman. But more than anything, Tallon liked these guys to begin with, so he jumped at the chance to get them again. The goal, of course, is to build from scratch what he built in Chicago. It would certainly be a boost if he can land a Patrick Kane or a Jonathan Toews with the No. 1 pick in Philadelphia on June 27, but he's also looking to his past to help build the Panthers' future.
"Obviously, having some history with them makes it a little bit easier," he told the Sun-Times before Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday. "You don't have to go through as many processes to understand who they are, and test them, and get to know them better. [The Hawks] are deep, and we're trying to do the same thing we did there, which is be deep in our farm. They're all pieces to the puzzle that are important to our future."
Pirri (23 years old) had seven goals and seven assists in 21 games with the Panthers. Hayes (24) had 11 goals and seven assists in 53 games, and Olsen (23) had three goals and nine assists in 44 games — both Hayes and Olsen bringing a strong physical game, too.
"Pirri and Hayes and Olsen are good players, but they've still got a long way to go," Tallon said. "But we've got a lot of kids, we're a young team. We're rebuilding to a degree, and they fit into our future."
And they didn't really fit in the Hawks' future. Pirri worked well for stretches as Kane's center, but his defensive play wasn't up to Quenneville's standards, and a source said that he had attitude problems that clashed with the coaching staff, as well. Hayes, a power forward with great potential, was unable to stick with the Hawks in three stints. With Ben Smith's emergence out of training camp, and Jeremy Morin, Joakim Nordstrom and Teuvo Teravainen knocking on the door, there simply wasn't a spot for him. Same with Olsen, a talented blue-liner who would have been fighting with Adam Clendening, Stephen Johns and Klas Dahlbeck to be the next man up.
In Chicago, they were talented prospects with no clear path to the NHL. In Florida, they're everyday players.
"I think sometimes there's a right time to make a trade," Bowman said at the trade deadline, shortly after dealing Pirri. "Just with the status of certain players, if you wait too long, you might not be able to get back what you want. We have some good young players coming. I think Brandon's going to be a good NHL player. He was great for us the last couple seasons in Rockford. I think he needs an opportunity to play."
Tallon gave him that opportunity, just as he did for Olsen and Hayes. And you can be sure he'll be on the phone with Bowman again over the next couple of weeks, always looking to improve his team, always eager to go back to the future.
"You're always looking to improve," Tallon said. "Always."

A cup of Hogan, please
Cabrera's link to former Oakmont champions takes shape in his left wrist. Notice the slight bend between the back of his left hand and his left forearm. This very Hogan-esque wrist cup keeps his clubface slightly open as he approaches impact, allowing him to release powerfully through impact without fear of hooking the ball left. While most amateurs are able to hit a fade, they don't have the power to back it up. If you want to swing with more power, you need to make sure your support system is in place. Keep both of your knees flexed and your weight in the front of your shoes on your downswing to accommodate extra acceleration.

Wellness Survey: Britney is Unhealthy, Oprah is Not and Other Famous, Fun Factsby Mischalova at . Comments
LIME recently completed a survey regarding celebrities and a wide range of health issues. Some of the results were expected. For example ...
Britney Spears is considered most in need of a more balanced lifestyle. The newly shaven celeb topped the unhealthy list with a whopping 81 percent saying of respondents saying she needs to "live the change."
In the eyes of Americans, Lindsay Lohan (14%) has somehow made great progress in living healthier, while a few others believe that Eminem (4%) and Mischa Barton (1%) need to start making some changes.
Meanwhile, Oprah Winfrey is the "Queen of Healthy Living," as she tops the list (at 47%) on the question of which celebritiess have most helped Americans re-evaluate their own views on the importance of living a healthier and more balanced lifestyle. Lance Armstrong comes in at a healthy second with 37%, while Ozzy Osbourne (8%) and Tyra Banks (8%) are tied at the bottom of the list.
Oprah's pal Bono is number-one when it comes to raising awareness for a cause (AIDS). He brought in nearly half the votes (48%) on who has made the greatest positive impact on raising social-consciousness about their charity. Angelina Jolie came was second (25%) with her work with the UNHCR, overshadowing the efforts almost two-fold of Ben & Jerry (16%) for Saving the Planet, and Harry Connick, Jr (11%) for Hurricane Katrina relief.
In more random results; 44% of respondants chose Cameron Diaz as the ideal yoga partner, more than double the folks who would want to partner with Jada Pinkett Smith (22%), L.L. Cool J (18%), and Mark Wahlberg (17%).
Finally, Americans want to spend a day doing green things such as recycling most with Salma Hayek (37%) and Brad Pitt (30%), while Sting (19%) and Daryl Hannah (13%) would have less fans sifting through the dumpsters with them on recycling-with-the-rich-and-famous day.

Worldwide Wardrobe Blogger Challenge
Whether you love the eloquent feel of Parisian inspired furniture, the modern, minimalist style hailing from Stockholm or the rich and fiery colours of Marrakesh; you can travel to your favourite cities every day (without the jetlag) with our latest homeware collections. We recently asked a handful of bloggers to create their dream bedroom based on one of five cities across the globe Hong Kong, Buenos Aires, Stockholm, Moscow or Marrakesh; a worldwide wardrobe blogger challenge!
Helen of forty percent fringe : sixty percent face based her blog post around the city of Stockholm, since she has always wanted to visit Sweden. After coming along to the bloggers home event we recently in Cardiff, Helen was inspired to style her fantasy bedroom around the Isabella wardrobe with plenty of bright, minimalist white staples, classic Swedish wooden furniture and fresh accents in green and yellow from The Good Life collection.
"I find too much brown wood or too much plain white overpowering but a combination of natural wood and stark white is perfecto in my eyes," explained Helen, "Plus I always love a bit of quirkiness in home styling, hence the adorable wee owl lamp."
Leeds based homeware interior designers of Sarah Gordon Home put together a piece on their blog too… choosing Moscow as the dream city. We love the metallic colour choices teamed with bold florals in ochre and pink tones.
"We've created a 'Moscow' bedroom scheme using some of these elements; a lovely brass bedstead from Next; large scale geometric print wallpaper for real impact; wood tones in the solid pine wardrobe and accessories; tactile textures with large knitted pod pouffes and a sheepskin throw; plus some folksy floral cushions."
A real contrast, Michaela of pargy.co.uk also went with Moscow but put a real modernist feel on her selections. With the Linear Black wardrobe alongside a metal floor lamp and sculpture, the edgy montage really reflected the city vibe.
Michaela's top tip: "Match blocks of grey, black and red with white and metal relief. Why not throw in some industrial accessories with a vibrant Kandinsky print to complete the look?"
Laura of Life as an Hourglass went for an Eastern look with her Marrakesh themed bedroom. The rustic looking Shoreditch triple wardrobe alongside the similar coloured Cuba bedstead provided a perfect backdrop to the Moroccan inspired accessories.
"When I think of Marrakesh, my mind immediately goes to luxurious fabrics, bold colours and intricate accessories. I chose two main colours, dark purple and yellow ochre for the curtains, bedding and cushions," she explained.
"I really like the mirror too; it's quite an unusual design and would be a real statement piece instead of having a picture."
Jools, vintage lover and blogger at Satin and Souffles, also chose Marrakesh as her bedroom city. A mix of deep colours, intricate prints, Eastern accessories, a variety of seating pods and layered mismatched cushions look brilliant styled with the acacia effect Cuba wardrobe.
"I chose Marrakesh as I have always been drawn to bright colours and I have a fondness for exotic places and bohemian interiors."
Luxe Life and Style blogger Bianca based her bedroom on Paris in the summer by creating a light and airy bedroom with neutral colours and lots of texture and accessories to create a calming and relaxing space. We love her use of creams, whites, pearls and pale metallics throughout furniture, bedding and accessories
Bianca also chose the stunning shabby chic style Isabella wardrobe along with the matching drawers, Portofino bedstead and Simpson console dressing table with the sumptuous Bellagio mink bedroom chair.
"I really like to introduce flowers and plants into my bedroom so I'm decorating the side tables with White Hydrangea and White Orchids on both the bedside table and the chest of drawers. I would also use lanterns, tealights and a couple of Stamford Candlesticks to create a romantic setting." Dreamy!
Thanks to all the bloggers for taking part – we absolutely loved the diverse range of bedroom ideas and feel like we're all getting the decorating bug ourselves.
