Robin Williams
I had the pleasure of interviewing Robin Williams several times on movie junkets and shared one of those rare couple of minutes when cameras aren't ready to roll. We talked about my son's imminent birth. Robin leaned in, that famous face widening in a grin you've seen a hundred times, saying "Aw, there's nothing greater in the world!"
I told him we were having trouble coming up with a name. It was really between Cooper, a name that would work whether he was an actor, writer or baseball player. Or Tucker, a family name. I said my fear with the name Cooper is the other kids will wind up calling him Cooper the Pooper. Robin shook his head. "No, no they won't. They'll call him "Cooper the Super Duper Pooper". And there was hardly a beat before he added. " But that's a lot better than Tucker."
So that's my Robin Williams story. The lightening fast wit and, above all, the generous humanity. What a sad day for me. And my son Cooper.

The Bryan Boys
Upon the death of J. St. George Bryan, 66, in June, 1945 the Bryan-owned Richmond New Leader ran this editorial:
Sharply etched as was ST GEORGE BRYAN in personality, he seldom thought of himself, so far as we observed, otherwise than as a member of a family, the son of JOSEPH BRYAN and the grandson of JOHN STEWART, of Brook Hill. If he had ever analyzed the psychology of a name, he would have put the emphasis on BRYAN and not on ST. GEORGE.
This was true, in varying degrees, of all five of the sons of JOSEPH and ISOBEL LAMONT STEWART BRYAN. They were brothers in spirit to a degree more marked even than that of their diversified individuality.
|John Stewart Bryan surrounded by his newspapermen
JOHN STEWART BRYAN was the senior in spirit as in birth, versatile, humane, captivating in manner and of eager intellectuality.
DR. ROBERT C. BRYAN was unique in charm, skillful as a surgeon, profoundly interested in all his patients, and of a broad sympathy that made him the cherished counsellor of hundreds.
JONATHAN BRYAN, the third son, much resembled his grandfather, JOHN STEWART, in person and in financial acumen. Singularly successful in business, he was far more than a businessman. He was socially irresistible, an intellect at once restless and philosophical, interested but always balanced, a MAECENAS whose full encouragement of promising men and noble enterprises will never be known.
THOMAS PINCKNEY BRYAN, the youngest and the first to die, was regarded by his admiring brothers as socially the most captivating of them all. Wherever he went, he won hearts impulsively. Never did he enter a company that he did not seek to do kindness to every member of it. His brilliant law career was climbing to its shining crest when he succumbed to typhoid and pneumonia. No man of his day was more lamented.
ST GEORGE BRYAN, the fourth of the sons, and the survivor, had his special share of the family endowment. His amazing wit, which had become a tradition in his lifetime, was one aspect only of a mind curiously intuitive. Those who worked with him in the newspaper business were accustomed to say of him that if he were asked for an instant answer to a question of business policy, he was almost inerrant. He might mistake if he pondered; he seldom did if he followed his intuitions. It was a remarkable quality and it helped to explain a fact in Richmond journalism that should not be overlooked: The years of his most active participation in the management of The Times Dispatch --roughly, 1909-13--were those in which its new foundations were made secure.
It is a grievous duty to bid farewell to the last of the "BRYAN boys," as they affectionately were styled through a long generation. Seldom is a city blessed with so many sons of a single family who gave so much and in so many ways to the enrichment and enlivenment of life. In saying Ave et salve, there is comfort in the reflection that of the next generation , seven sons and four daughters carry on the fine tradition. Six of the sons of the "BRYAN boys" are in the armed services. One had given his life. So widely have these grandsons of JOSEPH BRYAN scattered that few of them will walk tomorrow the gravel path to GOD's acre at Emmanuel Church; but many friends will follow--to remember the five, to thank GOD for them, and to sing reverently and gratefully, "The strife is o'er, the battle won...Allelujah!"
|J St George Bryan in 1890
Another editorial, this was most likely from the Times-Dispatch:
No Richmonder of his generation was more sought after as a friend and companion than J. ST. GEORGE BRYAN, whose death occurred yesterday after a long period of failing health. His warm-heartedness and geniality, his capacity for friendship, inspired the same qualities in others. Tall and handsome, with a fine presence, he was a striking figure , and his gift for bon mots and repartee, his seemingly inexhaustible fund of anecdotes, made him the center of many gatherings.
His quick wit was always in evidence, and as a mimic he was incomparable. Few dared to cross swords with him in a good-natured duel of words, for the intrepid one who did so was apt to be verbally skewered, albeit deftly and without the infliction of a wound. Among the few who were able to swap repartee with MR BRYAN on anything like evn terms were the late EGBERT G LEIGH and the late CHARLES COTEWSORTH PICKNEY . It was an unforgettable experience to sit in the old Westmoreland Club and listen to the scintillating, crackling conversation of those remarkable men.
They are gone, and so are the four brothers of ST GEORGE BRYAN--JOHN STEWART, DR ROBERT C., JONATHAN and THOMAS P. BRYAN, who passed on before. Five such notable brothers would be hard to find in Richmond's more than two centuries of history. Of the charming gentleman who outlived all the others, and whose death occurred yesterday, it can truly be said that he was a man of unusual gifts and high integrity, worthy of his great heritage.

Stashed Between The Pages
I am still finding letters and photos sealed between pages of books in the attic. From Ancestors, a 1971 novel written by the legendary New Yorker editor William Maxwell, quite a few things had been stashed for years. The most interesting are a pair of letters written to dad's step-father John O'Hara. The first is an undated letter ( probably between 1965-1969) from Pulitizer Prize winning novelist James Michener:
Dear John,
I had the pleasure last week of hearing your step-son handle himself rather well at the forum for critics and writers. He had a tart tongue, defended his work modestly yet with vigor, and showed a sense of humor to boot. You should be proud of him, because he gave every impression of being a long-time worker. It's good to see such fellows coming along.
Sincerely, Jim Michener
Then from Maxwell to O'Hara in another undated letter but clearly before The New Yorker's 1962 publication of "So Much Unfairness In Things":
Court seemed to me, both in what he showed me and in what he said, so close to the edge of becoming a writer that I am going to try and see if I can beat him into it. He is the first youngster I have talked to in I don't know how many years who seemed unafraid to commit himself and unafraid of the labor of writing. He has studied you, to considerable advantage- that is, he has learned how not to be boring. If I can find his rightful material he ought to turn out all right. He strikes me as the kind of person who would be happier as a writer than something else.
There are also three more letters from Maxwell from 1969, 1974 and 1975. The first was sent to Rural Route #5 outside Iowa City where Dad was teaching at the Writer's Workshop, happily married to Sam, and slogging his way through novel number 2: The Great Dethriffe:
The manuscript hasn't turned up yet, but it probably will this week, and I will write you as soon as I have read it. Meanwhile, you might write in pencil on the wall above your desk the motto of our family : " Leg over leg and the dog got to Dover." It applies to everything, but to novels most of all.
That may be the most quoted motto in our family as well. We're using it today as we try to sell a house. The letter ends on an affectionate note.
Not having sons, I find I can't begin to tell you how gratifying that you should choose me as the old block you are a chip off.
Yours affectionately also, B.M.

A Suburban View of the 1968 Washington Riots
When my mom typed this letter on the evening after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr, Washington DC was embroiled in a second night of rioting. Downtown buildings were on fire and 15 thousand extra troops had been sent into the city to control the crowds. Twelve people would be killed and more than a thousand injured. More than six thousand people would be arrested.
Seven miles to the south in Alexandria, VA, my mom watched the televised news bulletins while having "quite a few drinks"( as she would write the next morning).
Dear Mary
What a God-damned mess this country is. I am writing to you from war torn Washington DC, USA. Some pimply faced red neck decided to take a shot at Rev. Martin Luther King in Memphis and, like the assassination of our late president, it was another shot heard around the world.
Two days ago everyone had some--not much but some-- hope of PEACE. What in the hell was that SOB thinking? Now violence has broken out in our Nation's capital and for the first 4 or 5 hours there wasn't a cop in sight. Now, of course, there is a curfew. The National Guard has been activated but from the last Special Report, the rioting and looting is still going on.
Mary, there are children--some not more than six years old-- out there breaking into stores, stealing radios and clothes. You wonder what their mothers are doing or even if they know what their children are doing.
Alexandria is quiet at the moment and we have no violence. We can't even see the horrendous clouds of smoke from the District. Saint and Lansing are asleep, but my neighbors are alert and ready to take them across the back fences if we should have any trouble. There is an ammunition depot ( sounds like the last world war) right down the block from us. If the youths or even the adults of the negro population of Alexandria decided to invade this establishment we would all be in a very vulnerable position.
I am not really worried now, there has been no indication that we will have any trouble, but I do have an old shotgun that Courty left with us in case. I don't have any ammunition but I do have gall when it comes to defending the children.
The riots and the destruction stayed within the boundaries of the inner city, utterly devastating the community. Businesses were closed. Jobs were lost by the thousands. On some blocks, rubble would last for decades.

Who Played Me in a Movie?
Everybody has a family mystery they would like to solve. Here's mine. In 1979, some uncredited kids played me and my sister in the ABC TV movie Friendly Fire. We know Sam Waterston played my dad and an actress named Jenny Sullivan played my step-mother Sam. But, in the scene below, who are the two children who race out to greet the Volkswagen Bus in front of the house? If anyone has any idea, please leave a comment. Thanks!!

Mexican Divorce in the Mad Men Age
On January 14th, 1986 Esquire Magazine's David Hirshey contracted Dad to write a short 500 word piece on divorce due February 14th for $500. The article "Adios, Mi Esposa" was published in June 1986 in Esquire's special "The American Man 1946-1986" issue.
Twenty years ago I was separated from my wife and living in a 14th Street studio apartment in New York City while she and our two small children were living in our Tuxedo Park house. We had been through counseling, lonely trial separations, tearful reconciliations, countless mean accusations and hurtful recriminations and we did not want to stay married to each other anymore.
In the mid-60's, unless a spouse was imprisoned for three or more years, the only grounds for divorce in New York were adultery, cruel and inhuman treatment--which primarily means physical battery--or extended abandonment. Neither my wife nor I had abandoned each other or were in prison; and to file for divorce on either of the two remaining grounds seemed loathsome. We didn't want to punish each other further, we just wanted to be free; but obtaining a divorce based on fault we knew would be painful, time-consuming and --as it would involve New York lawyers and New York prices--expensive. So I went to Juarez where, I'd been instructed, I would appear in person before a Mexican magistrate along with a lawyer representing my wife.
In order to qualify for Mexican residency I crossed over from El Paso and spent the night in a Juarez motel. The following morning my Mexican lawyer met me and took me to a wood-paneled courtroom where along with perhaps a dozen other American men and women--there presumably for the same reason-- I stood guilt-ridden before a raised judicial bench behind which sat a tired, exasperated gentleman in a dark wash and wear suit. Without looking at us he addressed us at length in Spanish. I could never understand a word he said. And since my lawyer was nowhere around, I became increasingly uneasy that I was in the wrong courtroom. Throughout he entire proceedings the only person who spoke to me directly was a small boy selling Chiclets. Eventually we were dismissed and i went outside into the bright, merciless sunlight -- my eyes watering and blinking. Only then did I see my lawyer again.
"It is natural to be emotional at these times, " he said.
"Am I divorced?" I asked.
"The decree will be final in three days," he said. "You may return to New York."
I took a taxi back to my motel and showered. I stood under the water thinking about my ex-wife, my two children and the terrible things I had done. I remained there for a long time scrubbing myself without ever feeling clean.
I flew back from El Paso to New York that afternoon. By coincidence on my plane was the graduating class of the American Airlines Stewardess College. One of them, a pretty dark-haired Scot, had never been to New York before. By two the following morning she and I had ended up in a bar around the corner from my apartment. She was drinking Irish Coffee because, she insisted, it would sober her up. Suddenly she lurched forward and grabbed my crotch. "Tell me you love me a little," she said.
"Or what?" I asked. "You'll rip it off?"?
She pulled her hand away as if she'd been burned. "Need I remind you, " she said indignantly . "I am a stewderess!"
I gave a cabdriver enough money to see her safely home. That night alone in bed I felt I might have done at least one right thing that day. I was not sure what.

Letter to Kurt Vonnegut Dec 3, 1975
It had been six years since Dad had praised Kurt Vonnegut in a New York Times Book Review article entitled "Kurt Vonnegut, Head Bookinist", timed for the release of Slaughterhouse-Five. Nine years since he'd written a"ground breaking" retrospective of the author's works for The New Republic. Now, with the looming publication of Friendly Fire, Dad was seeking friendly blurbs from the kind of people who would make a difference. He thought Vonnegut owed him one so when the esteemed author declined, Dad was incensed enough to write Vonnegut a "snarler".
Dear Kurt:
Harvey Ginsberg at G.P. Putnam's told me you had declined to read the manuscript of my book Friendly Fire because everyone was asking you to read books these days. When I wrote you and said that if you were too busy I'd understand and promise not to sulk, I did not promise not to be angry and a little amazed. Back in 1966, you may remember, when you were still trying to make it big, I helped you out by doing that long retrospective review of your previous books for The New Republic suggesting people consider you something more than a science fiction writer and that you be taken seriously. I later, out of friendship for you , did that "side-piece" on you to tie in with Bob Scholes' review of Slaughterhouse-Five for the NYTBR.
In the copy of Mother Night you autographed for me in Iowa City in 1967 you wrote :
"To Courtlandt Dixon Barnes Bryan, cousin of my fourth best student, main sponsor of me as a Guggenheim fellow--in short, a friend worth ten thousand dollars, three thousand of them tax free. Love, Kurt Vonnegut Jr."
As I said, I understand that you are very busy. In turn, I trust you will understand that I figure you're a friend worth about two cents.
C.D.B. Bryan
I have no reason to believe the two ever spoke, or wrote, to each other again.

What We Want
Find a Conversation
|Sun, 04-29-2012 - 2:31am
I should have been in bed an hour ago. Indeed, I'm typing this from under the covers. I went on a date tonight, of sorts. Nice guy, maybe friends, similar interests, -20 chemistry scale. Now I'm home alone and it's making me think about what I want.
Someone to cuddle with as we fall asleep
Someone who has a male perspective when I get far down a rabbit hole with some problem
Someone who cares enough to ask questions about my life
Someone who looks at me when I talk, at least occasionally
The kinds of compliments only men will say
Someone hanging around doing the bizarre, illogical things men do just because they are men
Someone who will not get swayed by my persuasive suggestions that we take radical action, but who will calmly and logically discuss them.
What do you want?
|Sun, 04-29-2012 - 5:14am
I don't know what I want. I met an absolutely gorgeous, charming, intelligent, kind, confident, and seemingly sincere guy tonight. I've tried, for the last hour, to post about the exchange...and what may or may not happen if he does what he said he'd do later today...and what might happen if I follow through...and I can't even commit to hitting the little blue post button.
I'm glad you met someone nice, Marina That much, I can commit to...
|Sun, 04-29-2012 - 11:48am
I think you made a pretty good list there. I'd like:
someone to do things with so I don't have to look around for a date or companion every time I want to go out
someone to be romantic with (and of course have exciting sex)
someone to talk to when I come home from work, who's genuinely interested in how my day went
someone to do the heavy lifting and manly things around the house (that I now make my 16 yr old do--but what happens when he goes to college?)
If I could really dream big, I'd also pick someone who likes to dance
|Sun, 04-29-2012 - 1:11pm
Someone I can converse with in king's English
Someone who is affectionate
Someone who likes to dance
Someone who enjoys my company
Someone with whom we have mutual desire and passion(&sex)
Some one with at least a driver's lic
Someone to play with

After Stephenie survived the first merged-Koror vote, it looked like she might stick around a while. But only two weeks later, she was sent packing. In this interview with RealityNewsOnline, Stephenie talks about some of what we didnt see on Survivor, including her attempts to keep alliances going and what she believed and didnt believe when she heard it from her tribemates.
RealityNewsOnline: Hello, Stephenie, and thanks for taking the time to answer these questions from RealityNewsOnline! What was your plan coming into Survivor, and how did that plan change along the way?
Stephenie: My plan coming into Survivor was to make good alliances and do my best around camp and in challenges and have no regrets. It did not change much because I have no regrets and did all that I could to succeed. My only wish is to have been on a winning tribe because then I definitely would have stayed around to the end.
RNO: How do you think you were able to be the last person standing from Ulong?
Stephenie: I played hard and my best and proved my self to everyone on the tribe, and since we lost so much at that point they wanted to keep me around because we needed the strongest to win an immunity. But then the final one was a fire challenge and I got fire first. Even though Bobby Jon taught me how to get the fire going in the end I was able to make it faster than him and win immunity.
RNO: Back before the tribes were picked, what exactly was the deal you made with Tom, Ian, and Katie?
Stephenie: Tom, Ian, Katie, and I made a deal that basically we had an alliance and did not know what was gonna happen, whether we would be separated into two tribes or not. But even if we split up, if we all joined together in a merge somehow in the end we would all stick together. And it worked through the first Tribal Council over at Koror when I got there. But Gregg and Jenn were part of their new alliance all along and eventually they did not keep their word and voted me out!
RNO: Why do you think they backed out of it did you ever get any real explanation?
Stephenie: I never really got a real explanation but I think they backed out of it because they saw me as a threat and no one wanted to bring me to the end because I would possibly get all the votes.
RNO: What tipped you off to the fact that you were being targeted before the Tribal Council at which Janu quit?
Stephenie: Actually, I thought Janu was going at that Tribal Council, but as they all spoke I realized it was me which is what made me so upset. So honestly, I didn't really know.
RNO: Weve heard some of what Janu had to say about the Tribal Council in which she quit can you fill us in on your thoughts about what happened that night?
Stephenie: I think she was just ready to go and she was done with the game and very sick. Fortunately for me she quit, which allowed me three more days on the island. She did not do it for me she was done with being their pawn but I am grateful to her that I had three more days to try to prolong my stay on Palau...
RNO: Did you believe a word of what your tribemates were telling you after that Tribal Council?
Stephenie: Not really, because I knew I was gonna be gone if Janu didn't quit. They tried to make it seem like that wasn't the case but as we saw, it was at the next Tribal Council.
RNO: You approached Katie and Jenn in an attempt to make an all-women alliance did you try to get Tom to understand just how dangerous his own position was and convince him to be part of an all-threat alliance instead?
Stephenie: Tom and I spoke about being threat and sticking together but he could not convince the others to stick with him and keep me around. He also feared that if he pushed too hard he was the next to go, so he went with the numbers and voted me out. I also tried to pull and all girl alliance but they were threatened and didn't go for it.
RNO: By the time you got to your final Tribal Council, did you pretty much know you were going, or did you still have hope for the all-women alliance?
Stephenie: I still had hope that maybe just maybe Caryn would go because when Tom and I spoke right before Tribal Council he said it might be Caryn, not me, but he was not sure. So I was somewhat prepared but not fully. As the votes were read, I realized it was me and I just tried to hold my head high and be proud of the game I played because at that point there was nothing else I could do...
RNO: Is there anything else youd like to tell readers about yourself or your time in the game?
Stephenie: The show is completely real!! And much more difficult than it looks on TV. It was one of the best experiences of my life and it has made me realize that I truly am a strong person inside and out and no matter what, never underestimate yourself!! Always do your best and if your best is not enough than at least you know you did your best. But most likely if you give it your all, good things will come.
RNO: Thanks again, Stephenie!
The Best Aliance in Survivor History!!!!

What a beautiful gem tucked away in the North Carolina Highlands. My wife and I stayed here on both ends of a backpacking trip on the Appalachian Trail. Mary is a fabulous innkeeper, her breakfasts are unbelievable, and we were made to feel like we were staying with family. Shuttles are available to many nearby locations to start hikes or to go to town for food or supplies. The entire property is perfectly maintained, and fits in so well to surrounding mountains.
July 01, 2014
Mary made us most welcome. The room is clean and comfortable. Breakfast is extensive -- more than we could ever eat and plenty of choices. The only down side at all is that we have to share the bathroom with two other rooms. The mountains are lovely. There aren't a lot of interesting places to eat around there, but we go to contra dance, so food isn't uppermost.

We arrived to a warm welcome and cookies. Our room was very clean, smelled great, comfortable. The bathroom was spotless. Great hosts. Breakfast was amazing, my husband said we can never stay at a hotel again after this wonderful b and b. No more continental breakfasts for him. Now I just have to learn to cook banana pancakes as good as we ate Sat morning. Such a great price.

This was my first b&b and I must say I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My girlfriend and I had the Jefferson suite and it is big and comfortable with its own bathroom.
The wonderful breakfast gives you plenty of energy for hiking and the huge comfortable bed is perfect for a afternoon nap.
Mary,Terry,Shannon and David are great host, I can't wait for my next visit.
July 24, 2012
It seems that every superlative has already been used to describe Mary, Terry, and their B&B plus hostel. A wall plaque in the house near the front door says to come as guests and leave as friends. Right on! My wife and I came to do some hiking on the Appalachian Trail. Mary shuttled us for a day hike and then Terry shuttled us for a three-day backpack. Most of the hikers are younger (we're both over seventy-five), but another couple we chatted with over Mary's incredible breakfast were there to drive parts of the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. Just staying there and watching the world go by from the shady front porch would also be a pleasant option. And if you like animals, as we do, there are more than just dogs and cats around: at least four goats, three horses, and a mule. What a fun and gracious place!
?Awesome variety and quality breakfast. Owner Mary is awesome. Laundry included. Fab for AT thru, section or day hikers. All details considered for comfy stay.? ~TripAdvisor

I've stayed in their hostel on three separate occassions. This is undoubtedly one of the jewels of the AT. Mary is outgoing and a pleasure to visit. The hostel is great for section hikers such as my group. We plan to return each year for our traditional Roan Mountain hike.

La Tranquila Breath Taking Resort & Spa
|#44 in Best Pacific Coast Hotels
|Hotel Class 4.5-star
|Critic Rating N/A
|Guest Rating
U.S. News Review
If you couldn't tell just by looking at its name, La Tranquila Breath Taking Resort & Spa lures serenity-seekers with its promise of a little peace and quiet. Located about 2 miles northeast of Punta de Mita (and about 25 miles northwest of the Puerto Vallarta airport), La Tranquila is just far enough off the beaten path to provide plenty of seclusion. One of La Tranquila's most distinguishing features is its gorgeous 525-foot-long infinity pool, which wows guests with its location along the resort's private beach. There are also nine beachfront Jacuzzis and six other pools on the property, two of which are dedicated solely to aquatic activities. Guests who prefer to exercise on terra firma can take to the 18-hole Greg Norman-designed golf course, adjacent to the resort. To relax workout-weary muscles, try one of the 30 massages offered at the spa. Then, after a meal at one of La Tranquila's two guest-approved restaurants, head back to your suite or residence; there are 40 accommodations to choose from, each of which comes with at least one king-sized bed, a balcony and an LCD TV.

Washington DC $179 Million Traffic Ticket Bussiness
Every so often a police department will come under fire about its traffic or parking policies. Things like speed traps or a policy of only writing tickets to people from out-of-town are among the most common allegations. Usually these are one horse small towns trying to generate some money to put in a stop light or something along those lines.
But Washington DC has come under attack for their policies, or in some cases lack of policies regarding their traffic and parking enforcement. Washington DC generates $179,000,000 a year in traffic citations. Almost a quarter of a billion dollars annual, I think some people might take notice of what is going on.
On Monday the DC Inspector General issued a 115 page audit of the three police agencies tasked with parking and traffic enforcement in the DC area. According to the report drivers get tickets for violations they did not commit while driving vehicles they have never owned.
The report portrays the District in a negative light especially when compared with neighboring jurisdictions. The report says there is a shortage of regulations, a legion of ticket writers often confused about the rules, "arbitrary" decision-making about who gets some speed-camera tickets and parking-meter monitors who get called on the carpet if they don't write enough tickets.
According to a senior district official who was given anonymity in the report "One of the beauties of parking, it's like the [Internal Revenue Service]. If you get a parking ticket, you are guilty until you have proven yourself innocent . . . . And that's worked well for us."
Two of the report's most revealing details focus on the use of automated speed cameras and how tickets are handled when vehicle registration documents show a license plate and the car it's attached to don't match.
According to the report officials reviewing speeding camera make arbitrary decisions on which car is the violator when two cars are traveling side by side. As a former traffic officer I know that cars traveling side by side can causing tracking issues with certain types of radar devices. That is why police are required to have a visual confirmation that a vehicle is speeding in addition to radar confirmation to issue traffic citations in most jurisdictions.
However, in DC they figure more times than not, the car closer to the radar is giving off the reading so that is the vehicle that is mailed a citation. Despite the fact that it usually is the car closer to the radar that is giving the reading, the reviewing official has the discretion to issue the citation to either vehicle. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.
The other major issue is the fact that citations are issued to the registered owner of a license plate, even when the plate is not on their car. The theory according to police is that drivers frequently switch license tags around on their own vehicles. Never mind the fact that plates are often stolen and drivers rarely notice they are missing. They still issue a citation to the registered owner of the plate creating confusion especially when a driver knows they were not even in DC.
D.C. Police Chief Cathy L. Lanier called the report "flawed" and "sensationalist." She said there is widespread support for the District's use of automated speeding and red-light cameras.
Among many issues with the system the report also calls into question privacy laws. The report asks under what circumstances could traffic camera's be subpoenaed to court. The reports asks could the pictures be used in criminal, civil and child custody cases?
I am sure we will hear a lot more about this issue in the days to come.

Chicago Police Commander Charged with Shoving Gun Down Man's Throat
A popular Chicago Police Department Commander, Glenn Evans, was charged last week with shoving the barrel of his gun down a suspects throat.
Evans a popular Commander within the department has 45 prior complaints against him for excessive force. In this case Evans was charged with excessive force and official misconduct. He was released without having to post bail and has been assigned desk duty pending an investigation.
The case all started January 30 when Evans was on patrol in an area where a child had been shot the previous day. According to Evans he saw a subject holding a gun in his hand and chased after him. The man ran into a building and tried to hide in a closet. Evans saw the man and wrestled him to the ground. According to the the 22 year old, who has not been identified, Evans stuck his firearm down the man's throat. Evans then pulled out his Taser and stuck it to the man's groin area. Evans was cussing and demanding the man tell him where the firearm was.
The man was arrested and placed in a patrol car. Despite a search of the area no firearm was ever recovered but the man was charged with misdemeanor reckless conduct. The case was later dismissed when no police officers showed up for court.
The man filed a complaint the next day and complained of severe soreness to this throat claiming Evans shoved the gun all the way to the back of his throat.
Evans filed a report that gave no mention of a struggle or brandishing his firearm.
A month later during an investigation into Evans actions a DNA swab was taken from the barrel of Evan's gun. The DNA found on the barrel was a match to the man making the complaint against Evans.
Evans attorney Laura Morask, says the investigation is flawed and Evans can explain how his actions were justified. She claims Evans was never given an opportunity to tell his side of the story. Really? Let's see sticking a gun in the mouth of a suspect is something police are specifically taught NOT to do in all but the worst life or death of situations. Considering Evans failed to even mention any struggle, I doubt he feared for his life when he stuck the gun in the man's mouth. Evans did in fact have a chance to tell his side of the story in his incident report. It certainly is something that if his actions were in fact justified, Evans should have mentioned in his report.
It amazes me that someones action are so far outside of what is acceptable and some people will continue to try to justify it. Many Chicago residents are upset that the Mayor has tip toed around condemning Evan's actions.
Photographer Arrested For Covering Protests in Ferguson
Getty images photographer Scott Olson was arrested on Monday while photographing the protests taking place in Ferguson, Mo related to the shooting death of Michael Brown. What did he do wrong? He was in the wrong place.
Media reports are conflicting on what exactly took place. Some reports say Olson was told to move by police and did not get out of the way fast enough, so he was arrested. However, most media outlets are reporting he was simply in an area that the media was not allowed to be.
Getty images released the following statement about Olson's arrest:
"Getty Images condemns Scott's arrest and is committed to ensuring that he and our other photographer colleagues are able to report this important story."
Olson's arrest has caused an uproar by media outlets and the public. Olson's arrest is yet another example of the terrible response by law enforcement to the civil unrest taking place in Ferguson. With the multiple complaints that police have been heavy handed in their response to the protests, their continued restrictions on media attempting to cover the situation only adds to the public's negative perception of their actions.
Law enforcement needs to be transparent. Limiting the constitutional rights of the news media to report on a story is only going to continue to add to the problem. Add a series of video's post on YouTube of police officers in Ferguson being condescending to reporters and citizens only adds fuel to the fire.
Olson was released after only a few hours in custody, but it was an arrest that never should have taken place.
Here is one of the last images Olson captured before his arrest.
A Former Police Officers Analysis on Ferguson Shooting
Up until now I have refrained from commenting on the shooting death of Michael Brown. The reason is because so few details of the incident are known. We are not a site devoting to bashing cops, we are a site devoted to holding police officers accountable for their actions. As a former police officer who was involved in numerous high profile investigation I am very well aware of the games law enforcement plays. However, I am also very well aware that the vast majority of police officers are good people, and public perception is in many cases, unnecessarily harsh when it comes to the use of force by police.
Typically I like to comment on situations where there is either video, or some form of statement that raises question by law enforcement that would lead me to believe some type of cover-up or after the fact justification is taking place. In this situation, I have not heard much to make me have a strong opinion one way or the other. However, due to the intense public scrutiny of this case, I felt compelled to share my thoughts. I will attempt to do so from both the stand point of why the shooting may legitimately be justified, as we as why I think it may not be a justified use of force. I sincerely have no strong feelings either way at this time because it all depends on what exactly Officer Darren Wilson said in his statement and how that compares to the physical evidence.
Regardless of whether the shooting was justified or not, the law enforcement response to the protests has been horrible and I intend to discuss that in a separate post. Because their are so many unknown variables to this case that I will explore point by point giving different scenarios, this will be a very long article so please bare with me.
The fact that the police have been slow to make an arrest or a ruling on the justification of the shooting is about the only thing police have done right since the shooting. In the rare situations where a citizen kills someone and makes a claim of self defense, they are very rarely arrested at the scene unless their is overwhelming evidence that their statement is false from the onset of the investigation.
A situation with an officer involved shooting should be no different. You have witnesses to interview, physical evidence to examine and an autopsy that should be conducted to corroborate or contradict the self defense claim. Unlike television programs where this all happens in a one hour time span, these investigations take time. Not only to conduct the investigation but to prepare the reports for the District Attorney. I am sure this case will have thousands of pages of reports associated with the shooting. If charges are brought against Officer Wilson, without the necessary reports being completed an arrest would be pointless because he would be released by the court, creating even more tension.

Bakersfield Police Officer Accused of Committing Crime Hours after Academy Graduation
A Bakersfield Police Officer was arrested and fired within days of graduating the Police Academy in what may be the shortest career a cop ever.
According a report by the Bakersfield Californian, Peter Martinez graduate from the police academy on August 15, 2014. That night around 9:00 pm Martinez was allegedly involved in a domestic violence incident. Five days later Martinez was arrested at police headquarters and terminated.
The article did not provide very much detail, but I would assume the police department had some fairly strong evidence against Martinez to terminate him so quickly. Most likely they ended his employment by simply failing his one year probationary period that most law enforcement agencies in California have. As a probationary employee the agency can terminate you for virtually any reason.
NYPD Warns Officers Photography is Not a Crime
New York City Police Chief, Phillip Banks recently sent out a memo to his department reminding his officers something they should already know, photography is not illegal. Specifically Banks reminded his staff that on-duty police officers are subject to being photographed and video recorded while on duty in public areas.
"Members of the public are legally allowed to record police interactions. Intentional interference such as blocking or obstructing cameras or ordering the person to cease constitutes censorship and also violates the First Amendment."
This memo comes nearly two years after Washington DC Police issued a similar memo. It seems like nearly every day a new video emerges of a police officer violating a citizen journalist's right to photograph law enforcements interactions with the public.
Websites such as PhotographyisNotaCrime.com, which I think only creates more problems for photographers, is notorious for posting videos of police interactions with citizens and journalists armed with cameras.
While I am quick to point out mistakes made by law enforcement, I think photographyisnotacrime.com is anti-law enforcement. They want to take jabs at police officers anytime they can, even when the police were not involved in any misconduct.
The people involved in this website are notorious for going around and shoving cameras in police officers faces or video recording federal buildings. When they are asked what they are doing they become argumentative. Then they cite case law that protects their right to video.
This type of childish behavior makes photojournalists look bad. But on occasion, the sites creator Carlos Miller gets a reaction that is inappropriate and he jumps all over law enforcement for their mistake. Continue reading
Most people don't think of the word cute when they think of law enforcement. But Eau Claire a Wisconsin police officer is working on changing that thanks to his simple act. What Claire did was not a heroic act of valor, but it was something you do not see everyday.
When Claire saw a mother duck and her ducklings trying to cross a busy road, he stop his patrol car and traffic to make sure the family crossed safely.
Claire has received a lot of good-natured teasing from his colleagues ever since. Duck cupcakes, stuffed animals and everything else you can imagine with a duck on it has appeared on his desk since the video appeared. Claire has taken it in stride with a smile.
Police Officer Caught Masturbating in Starbucks
Camden New Jersey Police Lt. Benito Gonzalez Junior has been removed from duty and has been charged with disorderly lewdness, for allegedly pulling his shorts down and masturbating in a Starbucks Coffee Shop.
According to various media reports, local police posted a photo of Gonzalez online asking the public to help identify the man. The post has since been removed.
Gonzalez is a 17 year veteran and was assigned to the narcotics unit. He was off-duty at the time of the alleged "stick up".
Police Chief Scott Thomas said the department was "deeply troubled by the allegations of this off-duty conduct."
Gonzalez is scheduled to appear before a judge June 4.

Top Local Tips for Ajijic
Unusual weather???? We knew that it would be cooler than coastal Mexico but found it was actuall quite cold and could have done with heavier jackets. Coming from Calgary, I could have worn some of my winter clothes. Everyone told us this was unusual weather, so perhaps we were just unlucky.
A little corner in Paridise .Some of the best restaurants you'll find anywhere! Wonderful food at great prices.
The rainy season is really rainy this year! Wise to bring comfortable stable walking shoes...all cobblestone streets are slippery with the rain that occurs every day. Also bring an umbrella!!

Story mode for Dead Or Alive 2 HardcoreHome / Playstation 2 /
This page contains Dead Or Alive 2 Hardcore Hints for Playstation 2 called "Story mode" and has been posted or updated on Nov 8, 2007 by Rueuudh. Let us know what you think of this Hint by thumbs voting.
- Developer: Team Ninja
- Publisher: Tecmo
- Genre: Action Fighting 3D
- Release Date: Oct 25, 2000
- ESRB: Teen
Story mode
If you are having trouble defeating the last opponent in your character's story in mode (the big bird), use the following trick. Notice that whenever the bird turns around (its back is facing you), it unleashes dust that makes the ground shake and you get bowled over. However, you are too far away to attack him, so he does it again. However, if you get knocked over by the dust, and you can tell he is going to perform the attack again, stay down and do not press any buttons. If he performs that attack again while you are lying on the ground, he will not be able to hurt you. Note that your character gets up after awhile, so you cannot stay there all the time.

I'm very excited for our opening reception 6-8 pm this Thursday, December 6th at the Zullo Gallery showcasing SNAC photography, sculpture, painting, mixed-media, wood-burning….YIPEEEE!
Postcards from New Bedford: a photostory project
A community project merging the photographs of pro, amateur, and young (ages 8-18) photographers, celebrating the City of New Bedford opens tonight at ArtWorks 384 Acushnet Avenue, New Bedford 6-9pm.
I am personally very excited about this exhibit because not only does it celebrate the multitude of fantastic stories and the cultural color of New Bedford, it is the first time that I will be exhibiting with my 8 year old daughter Charlotte. I love seeing the world through her photographs.

Sample Public CNA (in part):
A small group of people form a CNA on the topic of their
choice. With open-doors joining policies,
applicants gain general membership by verifying their
identities via jointly trusted parties.
Members may author new material and,
operating in a particular branch capacity, they may
participate in performing reviewing tasks upon material
submitted by other members.
Each submission must pass through
review by randomly selected members in each of three
branch capacities. In the same way, higher-level
members then review the work performed. When submitted material has passed all
required reviews, the new material is
incorporated into the published product.
Every action performed by every member
is bound to their identity, as publicly
documented in CNA records. The full set of checks
is documented in CNA Design

Philosophy, Role and Benefits
That which we call civilization tends to
include some accumulation of shared, manifest symbols and
structure. With civilization arises a new, manifest layer of
shared structure, with its own calling for organization.
When defined this way, CNAs assist in the terms of civilization
As a human, I feel I should be responsible
for myself, and likewise, collectively, that all of
humankind should be responsible for itself. Nature appears
to us as naturally self-governing. Therefore, where
humankind governs itself, everything will have been
governed. The CNA is designed to contribute in the terms of
humankind's ability to govern itself.
What is the currency of a CNA? Its
members, who must each bind their names to the actions they
perform, contributes in terms of human economics. Its
published content contributes in terms of information
The CNA is a "Roman model", where anyone
and everyone may join and participate in performing clearly
defined tasks, in the act of collectively producing quality
expository writing, by way of collectively conforming to the
exercise of good critical skills.
The CNA is designed to function internally
as a political machine, and externally to produce a singular
product. It is intended for members of varying points of
view to work side-by-side, internally, where any resolvable
differences will be unified in its published product. Also,
where any irresolvable differences occur, it exists to
produce a list of each point of view.
CNA structure is designed to handle
political needs, and its business is information. Publicly,
our primary check upon CNA power is in our enforced
organizational decentralization of it; by CNAs being
popularly held to exist as a larger number of smaller

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
These are really cool additions to the Vista family— Slab and Narrow:
Mikey :-)
Dupré strikes again. Great stuff. I'm sure any similarity is unintentional, as Vista Slab comes directly from the very original Vista Sans, but the Slab could be considered a contemporary Officina.
Vista Slab
ITC Officina
As usual, Dupré's italics are really great. Vista Slab: that's probably the most natural looking double-story italic 'g' I've seen.
Thanks Coles for your observation. I would have not readily correlated a Officina and Vista slab. Nice catch.
Personally, looking at the two designs here, I would say that Officina is a little bit more well thought out in terms of low-res printing and reader cognition. Notice the inktraps on the r, a, u, and the p. Also, the diacritics seem a little bit more friendly to the designer short on vertical space. Vista Slab looks more like a stylistic expansion as opposed to a learned industrial-strength compact multi-use type system. (Of course, I don't know what I'm talking about, but anyway)
Nevertheless, I'm totally digging it. You like the lowercase italic g, I love the lowercase italic x and k.
Mikey :-)
Thank you Mickey & Stephen for your accurate comments. I'm fully agreed.
The comparison with Officina is not a surprise because Vista Sans was inspired by Spiekermann shapes - like Meta - and when I added serifs to Vista Sans, I kept in mind Officina but I deliberately didnt oserve it and tried - in vain - to forget it.

The hardship exception allows teams with at least four injured players who will be sidelined for at least two weeks to exceed the 15-player maximum roster. For a team to qualify for the exception, all four players must miss at least three consecutive games while sitting out those two weeks.
Smith played 70 games in his one season in Phoenix, averaign 3.7 points, 2.6 assists and 14.4 minutes per game. He'll look to latch on with another organization.
Smith scored 13 points, but needed 15 field-goal attempts, as he made just five of them. He added eight rebounds and five assists without a turnover, and also chipped in two steals in 36 minutes in the 109-86 loss.
Smith has mostly filled in as the team's backup point guard, and had been playing well in that role. He is averaging 6.5 points and 3.1 assists per game while shooting 47.8 percent from the field in the month of February.
Smith played 21 minutes in Wednesday's win, with Goran Dragic missing some time with an elbow issue. He scored six points on 3 of 6 shooting, but matched the team-high with six assists. He turned the ball over just once, and added two rebounds and two steals in his effort.
Smith has been the primary backup point guard for the Suns over the last month or so, but his production remains pedestrian. He is averaging 3.7 points and 2.7 assists in the month of January.
Smith scored in double figures for the first time Tuesday against the Bulls, as he chipped in 10 points in 23 minutes off the bench. He shot 4 of 8 from the field but missed all three of his 3-pointers, while adding one rebound and three assists in a 92-87 loss.
Smith has appeared in 21 games this season, and is averaging 3.5 points and 2.3 assists per game.
Smith, 24, has spent three seasons in the NBA but has never caught on as a rotation regular. He averaged just2 2.4 points per game in 52 games for the Magic and Bucks last season, right in line with his career average.

FDA Announces New Safety Measures for Narcotic Painkillers
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 09-11-2013 - 8:20am
New label warnings on extended-release, long-acting drugs for pain will soon go into affect. According to Health Day News, "In 2010, an estimated 16,651 people died because of abuse and misuse of opioid drugs," Hamburg said. "There is an increase of more than 300 percent over the past decade. And for each death there is an additional 10 treatment admissions, 32 emergency department visits and 825 nonmedical users of these drugs."
Hamburg said the FDA is trying to find a balance between making these painkillers available for patients who really need them and reducing their misuse and abuse.
The purpose of the new labeling is to make clear that because addiction, abuse and misuse are possible even at recommended doses -- along with the risks of overdose and death -- these drugs should be used only when other non-narcotic drugs have failed or aren't tolerated, or aren't strong enough to manage a patient's pain, the agency says." read more

Secondary School Mathematics Teachers' Conceptions of Proof
Eric J. Knuth
November 2002, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 379
Recent reform efforts call on secondary school mathematics teachers to provide all students with rich opportunities and experiences with proof throughout the secondary school mathematics curriculum-opportunities and experiences that reflect the nature and role of proof in the discipline of mathematics. Teachers' success in responding to this call, however, depends largely on their own conceptions of proof. This study examined 16 in-service secondary school mathematics teachers' conceptions of proof. Data were gathered from a series of interviews and teachers' written responses to researcher-designed tasks focusing on proof. The results of this study suggest that teachers recognize the variety of roles that proof plays in mathematics; noticeably absent, however, was a view of proof as a tool for learning mathematics. The results also suggest that many of the teachers hold limited views of the nature of proof in mathematics and demonstrated inadequate understandings of what constitutes proof.
