Huff v. Reichert, No. 13-1734 (7th Cir. 2014)Annotate this Case
Justia Opinion Summary
Huff was driving and Seaton was the passenger in a car with Ohio license plates that was stopped in Illinois, as recorded by Officer Reichert's dashboard camera. Huff provided his driver's license, insurance, and registration. Reichert explained that Huff crossed the center line without using a signal and then moved back into his own lane. Dispatch related that Huff had been arrested for battery and for marijuana cultivation in 2001, but had no convictions. Seaton had no criminal history. Reichert requested backup, but told Huff that he was letting him go with a warning. Seaton seemed nervous, so Reichert then asked if Huff objected to a search. Huff replied that he would "like to go." Reichert said that he wanted to walk his drug‐sniffing dog around the car. Huff asked Reichert if he was free to go. Reichert responded, "not in the car." Huff stated that he felt he had no choice but to consent and that Reichert could use the dog but could not search the car. Reichert repeatedly said, "show me! Find it!" The dog barked. Reichert replied, repeatedly, "good boy!" Reichert later admitted that he was trained not to say these things to his dog. Reichert told Huff that he was going to search his car. Huff responded, "do what you gotta do." Reichert searched the car, but did not document the presence of drugs nor collect any evidence. About 50 minutes after the stop Reichert told them that they were free to leave. In their suit under 42 U.S.C. 1983, the court denied Reichert's motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity. The Seventh Circuit affirmed.

In the United States Court of Appeals For the Seventh Circuit ____________________ No. 13 1734 TERRANCE HUFF and JON SEATON, Plaintiffs Appellees, v. MICHAEL REICHERT, Defendant Appellant. ____________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. No. 12 596 MJR PMF Michael J. Reagan, Judge. ____________________ ARGUED FEBRUARY 19, 2014 DECIDED MARCH 10, 2014 ____________________ Before BAUER, FLAUM, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges. FLAUM, Circuit Judge. Officer Michael Reichert pulled over Terrance Huff and Jon Seaton on the interstate highway in Illinois. Reichert said their car had crossed the white di vider line without signaling. After sixteen minutes, he gave Huff a written warning. However, Reichert continued to de tain the pair for thirty four more minutes, during which time he conducted a pat down of both men, a dog sniff of their car s exterior, and a thorough search of their car s interior. 2 No. 13 1734 Huff and Seaton sued Reichert under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleg ing Fourth Amendment claims of unreasonable seizure, false arrest, and an unreasonable search of their persons and of Huff s car. The district court denied Reichert s motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity. We affirm. I. Background After attending a Star Trek convention in St. Louis, Mis souri, plaintiffs were returning home to Hamilton, Ohio on Sunday, December 4, 2011. Huff was driving and Seaton was in the front passenger seat. The car had Ohio license plates. At 8:10 am, Reichert stopped them on Interstate 55 70 in Col linsville, Illinois. The entire traffic stop is captured on video on Reichert s dashboard camera. That video is in the record. Reichert first asked Huff for his driver s license, insur ance, and registration. Huff provided all three documents. When Reichert asked if the address on his license was cur rent, Huff replied that it is actually his mother s address and then provided his current address in Hamilton, Ohio. Reichert said he was having trouble hearing Huff and asked Huff to exit his car and stand behind it while Seaton re mained in the passenger seat. Reichert then asked Seaton about their travels. Next, Reichert explained to Huff why he had pulled him over, stating that Huff crossed halfway over the center line in front of a truck without using a turn signal and then moved back into his own lane. Huff replied that he had had problems with the lid on his drink. Reichert asked Huff about his criminal history, to which Huff replied that he had no outstanding warrants but had been arrested about twenty years earlier. Reichert then called police dispatch, which related that Huff had been arrested for battery with injury and for marijuana cultivation in 2001. Huff had no No. 13 1734 3 convictions, though. Seaton had no criminal history. Reichert requested a backup officer, who later appeared on the scene. Reichert told Huff that he was letting him go with a warn ing. He gave Huff the warning and they shook hands. The encounter had lasted about sixteen minutes, at this point. Reichert then requested to speak to Seaton. He said Sea ton seemed nervous and apprehensive. Reichert mentioned to Huff that the interstate highway had been used by motor ists to carry drugs, guns, and large amounts of U.S. currency. He asked if Huff possessed any of those items in his car, and Huff said no. Reichert then asked if Huff had any objection to Reichert s searching the vehicle; Huff replied that he would just like to go on [his] way. Reichert said that he was concerned about Seaton s demeanor and wanted to walk his drug sniffing dog around the car. Huff responded that s fine, but then said, [y]ou pulled me over for swerving, and I know I did not swerve. He also said that he believed he was being profiled by Reichert. Huff then asked Reichert if he was free to go. Reichert responded, not in the car. Reichert then asked Huff for consent to search the car, and Huff responded that he felt he had no choice but to con sent. Reichert said he was merely going to have the dog sniff around the car to see if it would alert. Huff said that Reichert could use the dog but could not search the car. Next, Reichert conducted a pat down search of Huff and Seaton. Reichert then brought the dog out and circled the car with it. When Reichert and the dog got to the front of the car, Reichert repeatedly said, show me where it s at! Find it! The dog then barked. Reichert immediately replied, repeat edly, [t]hat s a good boy! Reichert admitted in his deposi tion that he was trained not to say these types of things to his 4 No. 13 1734 dog during searches. Reichert told Huff that the dog alerted by scratching at the front of the vehicle and then barking. (This portion of the traffic stop is not visible on the video.) Reichert then told Huff that he was going to search his car, and Huff responded, do what you gotta do. Huff stat ed that, previously, a few individuals who smoke marijuana had ridden in his vehicle, but they had never smoked while in Huff s car. Reichert thoroughly searched the car. After the search, Reichert told Huff that there was marijuana shake in his car that needed to be vacuumed out. ( Shake refers to the loose leaves, seeds, and stems at the bottom of a bag of marijuana.) However, Reichert did not document the pres ence of drugs in the car nor collect any physical evidence. About fifty minutes after the initial stop, and thirty four minutes after giving Huff a warning ticket, Reichert told the plaintiffs that they were free to leave. Plaintiffs filed this § 1983 suit against Reichert and the City of Collinsville,1 with claims based on the Fourth Amendment and state law. Their federal claims against Reichert allege an unreasonable seizure, false arrest, unrea sonable search of their persons, and unreasonable search of the car. Their state law claims are not relevant to this appeal. After some discovery, Reichert filed a motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity, which the district court denied. It reasoned that a raft of disputed material facts exists, and when viewing these facts in the light most favorable to the plaintiffs, they had made out clearly estab lished violations of their rights. Reichert appeals. 1 We granted the City s motion, pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 42(b), for dismissal from this appeal. No. 13 1734 5 II. Discussion The doctrine of qualified immunity protects govern ment officials from liability for civil damages insofar as their conduct does not violate clearly established statutory or con stitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known. Pearson v. Callahan, 555 U.S. 223, 231 (2009) (quot ing Harlow v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 800, 818 (1982)). In an inter locutory appeal from the district court s denial of qualified immunity at summary judgment, we have jurisdiction to consider only the purely legal question of whether, for pur poses of [the defendant s] qualified immunity defense, the facts asserted by the plaintiffs make out a violation of clearly established law. Jewett v. Anders, 521 F.3d 818, 819 (7th Cir. 2008). Thus, we accept the plaintiffs (or the district court s) version of the facts and ask whether the defendant is never theless entitled to qualified immunity. Id. In addition, a de fendant official may not appeal a district court s summary judgment order insofar as that order determines whether or not the pretrial record sets forth a genuine issue of material fact. McKinney v. Duplain, 463 F.3d 679, 686 (7th Cir. 2006) (quoting Johnson v. Jones, 515 U.S. 304, 319 20 (1995)). But summary judgment orders are appealable when they con cern an abstract issue of law relating to qualified immuni ty, id. (quoting Behrens v. Pelletier, 516 U.S. 299, 313 (1996)), such as whether the right at issue is clearly established or whether the district court correctly decided a question of law, Leaf v. Shelnutt, 400 F.3d 1070, 1078 (7th Cir. 2005). A. Unreasonable seizure claim The Fourth Amendment prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures. An officer s temporary detention of an indi vidual during a traffic stop constitutes a seizure of a person, 6 No. 13 1734 see Carmichael v. Village of Palatine, 605 F.3d 451, 456 (7th Cir. 2010), and thus must be reasonable under the circumstances, Whren v. United States, 517 U.S. 806, 810 (1996). Officers may conduct an investigatory stop of a person when they have a reasonable, articulable suspicion that criminal activity is afoot. United States v. Riley, 493 F.3d 803, 808 (7th Cir. 2007) (quoting United States v. Lawshea, 461 F.3d 857, 859 (7th Cir. 2006)). Reasonableness requires an objective inquiry into all of the circumstances known to the officer at the time that he detained the suspect. United States v. Snow, 656 F.3d 498, 500 (7th Cir. 2011). The Fourth Amendment permits pretextual traffic stops as long as they are based on an observed viola tion of a traffic law. Whren, 517 U.S. at 810. Thus, in order to stop the plaintiffs, Reichert must have had a reasonable ar ticulable suspicion that they had committed, were commit ting, or were about to commit an offense. See Riley, 493 F.3d at 808. Changing lanes without signaling violates Illinois state traffic laws. See 625 ILCS 5/11 709(a); 625 ILCS 5/11 804. But the district court found that there is a genuine issue of material fact as to whether Reichert actually perceived a traffic violation. 2 If Reichert did not witness a traffic viola tion, then he lacked a reasonable basis to pull plaintiffs over; they were simply driving with out of state license plates on a particular stretch of highway where Reichert says that 2 Reichert implicitly contends that the district court s conclusion was in correct, arguing that it is questionable whether Huff actually denied that his vehicle left his lane in front of a truck without a turn signal and then moved back into lane. But the district court found a disputed issue of material fact, and we cannot revisit that finding on interlocutory ap peal even if we disagreed (which we do not). See McKinney, 463 F.3d at 690 ( [G]iven the mandate of Johnson, we lack jurisdiction to conduct such a review of the record. ). No. 13 1734 7 much drug trafficking occurs. These sorts of general state ments do not amount to reasonable suspicion; if they did, officers could pull over scores of drivers every day without any particularized suspicion that the occupants of these cars had done anything unlawful. See United States v. Marrocco, 578 F.3d 627, 633 (7th Cir. 2009) (the suspicion necessary to justify [a seizure] must amount to more than a mere hunch, and cannot be based solely on an officer s conclusion that a suspect fits a drug courier profile. Instead, the suspicion jus tifying such conduct must be based on specific, articulable facts which, judged in light of the officers experience, would justify the intrusion. ) (citations and internal quotation marks omitted). Reichert argues that the plaintiffs version of the facts is merely self serving. Putting to one side that we have pre viously rejected this argument, see Rooni v. Biser, No. 13 1511, 2014 WL 407475, at *3 (7th Cir. Feb. 4, 2014) ( One ac ceptable type of evidence is the plaintiff s own affidavit, as long as it otherwise contains information that would be ad missible if he were testifying directly. There is nothing sus pect about the fact that such affidavits are normally self serving. (citing Hill v. Tangherlini, 724 F.3d 965, 967 & n.1 (7th Cir. 2013); Payne v. Pauley, 337 F.3d 767, 773 (7th Cir. 2003)), we lack jurisdiction here even to consider it. See Via v. LaGrand, 469 F.3d 618, 622 (7th Cir. 2006); McKinney, 463 F.3d at 690. For the same reason, we may not consider Reichert s argument that the plaintiffs accounts are uncorroborated, for that is a contention about how to construe the factual record. See LaGrand, 469 F.3d at 625 & n.3 (noting that we may not review the factual record in an interlocutory appeal of a denial of qualified immunity, unless the district court fails to set forth the precise factual basis for its decision). 8 No. 13 1734 Finally, Reichert relies on three cases, but they are easily distinguishable. These cases involved (1) a brief stop and minimal intrusion, see Johnson v. Crooks, 326 F.3d 995, 998 99 (8th Cir. 2003), which the present case does not; (2) a credi bility assessment, see United States v. Dowthard, 500 F.3d 567, 571 (7th Cir. 2007), which is irrelevant here; and (3) a case in which a motorist, who had been pulled over for crossing the centerline twice on a curve, told the officer that he had just awakened, that he may not have been paying attention, and that he could understand how he may have gone left of cen ter. Valance v. Wisel, 110 F.3d 1269, 1273 (7th Cir. 1997). The present case in which the plaintiffs were lucid, their recol lections clear, and the facts fiercely disputed is a far cry from Valance. For the foregoing reasons, we affirm the denial of qualified immunity for an allegedly unlawful seizure. B. False arrest claim Plaintiffs next claim is for false arrest, in violation of the Fourth Amendment. Reichert argues first that he did not ar rest the plaintiffs, and second that even if he did, he had ar guable probable cause to do so, which is an absolute de fense to a wrongful arrest claim under § 1983. Rooni, 2014 WL 407475, at *3. We address each argument in turn. a. Arrest A traffic stop can be converted into a full blown arrest if it extends beyond the time reasonably necessary to complete the purpose for which the stop was made. Illinois v. Caballes, 543 U.S. 405, 407 (2005) ( A seizure that is justified solely by the interest in issuing a warning ticket to the driver can be come unlawful if it is prolonged beyond the time reasonably required to complete that mission. ). For an investigative No. 13 1734 9 stop based on reasonable suspicion to pass constitutional muster, the investigation following it must be reasonably re lated in scope and duration to the circumstances that justi fied the stop in the first instance so that it is a minimal intru sion on the individual s Fourth Amendment interests. Unit ed States v. Bullock, 632 F.3d 1004, 1015 (7th Cir. 2011) (quot ing United States v. Robinson, 30 F.3d 774, 784 (7th Cir. 1994)). Applying these principles, Reichert s investigation fol lowing the initial stop violated the Fourth Amendment. He pulled over the plaintiffs for an alleged driving violation and for only an alleged driving violation. Reichert s actions during the first sixteen minutes in which he asked for Huff s license, registration, and insurance, and ensured that there were no outstanding warrants for either plaintiff were consistent with Reichert s statement as to why he pulled over the plaintiffs. However, that limited investiga tion ended when Reichert handed Huff a written warning. At this point, Reichert had completed all of the steps at tendant to investigating the purpose for the stop. Yet he rei nitiated questioning on the grounds that Seaton seemed nervous. The investigation then continued for thirty four more minutes. This portion of the stop was not reasonably related to the circumstances that initially justified the stop, nor did any other considerations justify prolonging the stop. Nonetheless, Reichert maintains that plaintiffs were not under arrest because they were free to go. The Supreme Court has explained that, under these circumstances, the appropriate inquiry is whether a reasonable person would feel free to decline the officers requests or otherwise termi nate the encounter. ¦ [T]he crucial test is whether, taking into account all of the circumstances surrounding the en 10 No. 13 1734 counter, the police conduct would have communicated to a reasonable person that he was not at liberty to ignore the po lice presence and go about his business. Florida v. Bostick, 501 U.S. 429, 436 37 (1991) (quoting Michigan v. Chesternut, 486 U.S. 567, 569 (1988)); see generally United States v. Tyler, 512 F.3d 405, 409 10 (7th Cir. 2008). After handing Huff the warning, Reichert requested to speak to Seaton and asked if Huff had any objection to Reichert s searching the car. Huff replied, I d just like to go on my way. Reichert told Huff that he was concerned about Seaton s demeanor and wanted to walk his drug sniffing dog around the car. Shortly thereafter, Huff asked Reichert if he was free to go. Reichert responded, not in the car. Reichert explained that the plaintiffs would be arrested if they walked away from the scene because it is illegal to walk on the highway. He said that they could, however, abandon their car, get in the back of a squad car, and have another of ficer take them to a gas station. If they chose that option, Reichert said, their car would be towed and impounded be cause it is illegal to abandon a car on the side of the highway. We conclude that under these circumstances, no reasona ble person would feel free to leave. The plaintiffs car had been detained, and Reichert made it clear that they lacked the power to terminate the car search. Bostick, 501 U.S. at 436. They would be arrested if they walked away, so their only option was to leave in the back of a police car. And if they did that, their car would be towed and impounded, presumably at a considerable delay and expense to them. The result of leaving would be violating the law, losing both time and money, and briefly experiencing the back of a No. 13 1734 11 squad car. That s really no choice at all. As a result, for the arrest to be lawful, Reichert needed arguable probable cause. b. Arguable probable cause Probable cause exists when the facts and circumstances within [the officer s] knowledge and of which they have rea sonably trustworthy information are sufficient to warrant a prudent person in believing that the suspect had committed an offense. Williams v. Rodriguez, 509 F.3d 392, 398 (7th Cir. 2007) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). The probable cause inquiry is an objective one; an officer s sub jective motivations do not invalidate a search otherwise sup ported by probable cause. Whren, 517 U.S. at 812 13. The probable cause standard requires that the officer s belief be reasonable, not that it be correct. Qian v. Kautz, 168 F.3d 949, 953 (7th Cir. 1999). Due to qualified immunity s protection, an officer needs only arguable probable cause. Humphrey v. Staszak, 148 F.3d 719, 725 (7th Cir. 1998). Arguable proba ble cause exists when a reasonable officer in the same cir cumstances and ¦ possessing the same knowledge as the officer in question could have reasonably believed that prob able cause existed in light of well established law. Id. (cita tion omitted). Reichert states that he had arguable probable cause be cause (1) Huff s driver s license did not have his current ad dress; (2) Huff was carrying a temporary proof of insurance card; (3) Huff had two decade old arrests, one for marijuana cultivation and the other for battery; (4) Seaton was nervous; and (5) the stretch of highway where Reichert stopped the car is used by motorists to carry drugs and guns. 12 No. 13 1734 These considerations did not provide arguable probable cause in this case. First, Huff s documents were both valid. See 625 ILCS 5/6 114 (explaining that if a driver s residence address changes, he may apply for a corrected ¦ license ); Ill. Admin. Code § 8010.20 (providing that a temporary in surance card is valid proof of insurance). Second, neither of Huff s prior arrests resulted in a conviction. A prior arrest (and especially one that does not result in a conviction) shows very little, if anything, about the likelihood that a per son committed a crime a decade later. See United States v. Walden, 146 F.3d 487, 490 (7th Cir. 1998) ( Reasonable suspi cion of criminal activity cannot be based solely on a person s prior criminal record. ); United States v. Jerez, 108 F.3d 684, 693 (7th Cir. 1997) (same); see also U.S. ex rel. DeNegris v. Men ser, 360 F.2d 199, 203 (2d Cir. 1966) ( At best, [a prior arrest] only implies that the police suspected them of [illegal] activi ty at that earlier time); Beck v. Ohio, 379 U.S. 89, 97 (1964) ( We do not hold that the officer s knowledge of the peti tioner s physical appearance and previous record was either inadmissible or entirely irrelevant upon the issue of probable cause. But to hold knowledge of either or both of these facts constituted probable cause would be to hold that anyone with a previous criminal record could be arrested at will. ) (citation omitted). Third, the plaintiffs deny that Seaton was nervous, and we accept their account at this stage.3 3 In any event, our court along with the First, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Circuits has held that nervousness is of limited val ue in assessing reasonable suspicion and/or is so common that it alone cannot justify a Terry stop. United States v. Simpson, 609 F.3d 1140, 1147 (10th Cir. 2010); accord United States v. McKoy, 428 F.3d 38, 40 (1st Cir. 2005) ( Nervousness is a common and entirely natural reaction to police presence ¦ . ); United States v. Richardson, 385 F.3d 625, 630 31 (6th Cir. No. 13 1734 13 Finally, probable cause cannot stem only from a suspect s presence in a high crime area. Although a high crime area is a permissible consideration in considering the totality of the circumstances, United States v. Jackson, 300 F.3d 740, 746 (7th Cir. 2002), this consideration alone does not even sup port reasonable articulable suspicion. Lawshea, 461 F.3d at 860 ( [M]ere presence in a high crime area does not ¦ itself justify an investigatory stop. ); Illinois v. Wardlow, 528 U.S. 119, 124 (2000) (same). For the high crime area factor to car ry weight in a probable cause determination, there should be a reasonable connection between the neighborhood s higher crime rate and the facts relied upon to support probable cause. Whitehead v. Bond, 680 F.3d 919, 932 (7th Cir. 2012). Under these circumstances, we do not see even arguable probable cause. Even if two arrests from a decade ago were moderately relevant, it is hard to see how those arrests in conjunction with driving through a high crime area would lead a prudent, reasonable officer to conclude that Huff was 2004) ( [A]lthough nervousness has been considered in finding reasona ble suspicion in conjunction with other factors, it is an unreliable indica tor, especially in the context of a traffic stop. Many citizens become nerv ous during a traffic stop, even when they have nothing to hide or fear. ) (citations omitted); United States v. Portillo Aguirre, 311 F.3d 647, 656 n.49 (5th Cir. 2002) ( We have never held that nervousness alone is sufficient to create reasonable suspicion of criminal activity. ); United States v. Jones, 269 F.3d 919, 929 (8th Cir. 2001) (suspect s nervous demeanor alone was not enough to establish reasonable suspicion); United States v. Chavez Valenzuela, 268 F.3d 719, 726 (9th Cir. 2001) (holding that ex treme nervousness during a traffic stop does not alone support a rea sonable suspicion of criminal activity, and does not justify an officer s continued detention of a suspect after he has satisfied the purpose of the stop. ); United States v. Brown, 188 F.3d 860, 865 (7th Cir. 1999) ( Nerv ousness ¦ alone will not justify a Terry stop and pat down ¦ . ). 14 No. 13 1734 committing a crime. Therefore, Reichert is not entitled to qualified immunity on the plaintiffs claims of false arrest. C. Unreasonable search of person claim Plaintiffs next claim that Reichert unreasonably searched their persons. Reichert makes three arguments on this issue. First, he contends that both plaintiffs consented to his search of their persons. Second, he argues that the searches were incident to a lawful arrest. Third, he says he had reasonable articulable suspicion to pat them down, pointing to the same five considerations as in the prior issue. Each argument fails. a. Consent In a prior § 1983 case, we evaluated whether a warrant less search premised on consent was valid, and we said that the key consideration was whether the consent was freely and voluntarily given a factual question to be determined by the totality of the circumstances. McGann v. Ne. Ill. Reg l Commuter R.R. Corp., 8 F.3d 1174, 1178 (7th Cir. 1993); see also Valance, 110 F.3d at 1278. We later explained that if the initial seizure was unlawful, then contemporaneously granted con sent is invalid, unless it can be shown that the consent was in fact sufficiently an act of free will to purge the primary taint of the unlawful seizure. The purported consent is free of the unlawful taint if there is a break in the causal connec tion between the illegality and the consent given. McGann, 8 F.3d at 1184 (quoting Wong Sun v. United States, 371 U.S. 471, 486 (1963)). Applying these principles, the McGann court reversed a grant of summary judgment. It reasoned that a factual question existed whether the plaintiffs voluntarily consented to the search even though they never indicated through words or actions that they opposed the search. No. 13 1734 15 The present case is largely analogous to McGann, both in terms of the voluntariness question and the seizure issue. Reichert says plaintiffs consented to a search; plaintiffs deny as much. They contend that they were exasperated and in timidated and thus had no choice but to obey Reichert. If a jury believed plaintiffs, there would be a strong case for lack of voluntariness especially under the circumstances of this case, where the plaintiffs were on the side of a highway, could not leave in their car, and would have been arrested if they walked away. Since these are factual questions that we cannot resolve here, we reject Reichert s consent argument. b. Search incident to a lawful arrest Reichert s next argument is that if the plaintiffs were in deed arrested, then the search of their persons was lawful because it was incident to a lawful arrest. But the plaintiffs say the arrest was unlawful (their claim is false arrest), and in Johnson v. United States, 333 U.S. 10, 16 (1948), the Supreme Court held invalid a search incident to an unlawful arrest where the arresting officer did not have probable cause prior to his entry into the room. U.S. ex rel. Wright v. Woods, 432 F.2d 1143, 1146 (7th Cir. 1970). In addition, the Court has ex pressly rejected the practice of a warrantless search incident to [a] citation for a traffic violation. Knowles v. Iowa, 525 U.S. 113, 118 19 (1998). We therefore reject Reichert s argument. c. Reasonable articulable suspicion Reichert next contends that he had reasonable articulable suspicion to do a pat down search of the plaintiffs. In the context of a traffic stop, an officer may conduct a pat down search when two conditions are met. First, the investigatory stop must be lawful. Arizona v. Johnson, 555 U.S. 323, 326 16 No. 13 1734 (2009). This condition is satisfied when an officer reasona bly suspects that the person apprehended is committing or has committed a criminal offense. Id. Second, to proceed from a stop to a frisk, the officer must harbor reasonable suspicion that the person subjected to the frisk is armed and dangerous. Id. at 327. Officers must have reasonable suspi cion as to each person frisked. Id.; see generally United States v. Brown, 188 F.3d 860, 864 (7th Cir. 1999) ( Although the con frontation between a police officer and a citizen stopped for a traffic violation can be fraught with danger, this fact alone does not justify a pat down, and the case law does not sup port the view that an officer may frisk the occupants of any car stopped for a traffic violation. ) (quoting Pennsylvania v. Mimms, 434 U.S. 106, 110 n.5 (1977)). There was no reason to think that either plaintiff was armed or dangerous. We reach this conclusion for the same reasons that we determined that none of the five reasons Reichert proffers (individually or in combination) amounted to arguable probable cause. If there were a compelling need to pat down the plaintiffs, presumably Reichert would not have waited more than twenty seven minutes to do so. Moreover, neither a prior conviction nor presence in a high crime area is alone sufficient for reasonable articulable sus picion that a suspect is armed. See Walden, 146 F.3d at 490; Lawshea, 461 F.3d at 860; United States v. Hairston, 439 F. Supp. 515, 518 (N.D. Ill. 1977). Since there was no reason to suspect that either plaintiff was armed, we affirm the denial of qualified immunity for Reichert s search of their persons. D. Unreasonable search of vehicle claim Plaintiffs also claim that Reichert unreasonably searched the car. The district court said, Plaintiffs question many No. 13 1734 17 facts surrounding the dog alert, such as: the accuracy of the dog; the training of the dog; the extent to which the dog was manipulated to respond; and whether an alert actually oc curred at all. The district court denied summary judgment because it found that there is a genuine issue of material fact regarding the reliability of the particular alert. Reichert first argues that plaintiffs have waived this ar gument, but that is incorrect. We have found waiver where a liberal reading of [the] complaint and argument in the dis trict court yields no signs of the[] arguments [the plaintiff] is now presenting. Fednav Int l Ltd. v. Cont l Ins. Co., 624 F.3d 834, 841 (7th Cir. 2010). Here, however, the arguments about the reliability and training of Reichert s dog were clearly be fore the district court and are encompassed by plaintiffs al legations of a false alert, which call into question the pro cess by which the dog knew to bark. Reichert next raises several factual arguments, quoting parts of the record at length. Yet we cannot consider argu ments about the record given this case s procedural posture. See LaGrand, 469 F.3d at 622 ( Critically, and dispositively, this court lacks interlocutory jurisdiction to review the dis trict court s conclusion whether genuine issues of material fact exist. ). Reichert does not argue that, if we accept plain tiffs account of the facts (at this stage), he nevertheless was justified in searching the vehicle. As such, we may not con sider Reichert s arguments on this issue. See id. III. Conclusion For the foregoing reasons, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.

While not without its faults, Captain Newman, M.D. is an entertaining, well-intentioned film that benefits from its sterling cast. Where Newman is less fortunate is in its screenplay, which vacillates between comedy and drama and never quite finds the appropriate balance between the two. There's also a structural problem inherent in Newman: it stars Gregory Peck and with a star of that magnitude must focus on him. But the character of Newman is more of an observer and reactor than a participant and catalyst, and so the film keeps shifting its focus away from the star and onto the supporting players. Director David Miller does what he can to correct these flaws, but his efforts are only partially successful. Fortunately, the screenplay compensates for its flaws with some finely realized characters and some flavorful dialogue. Peck is a bit stiff in Newman, a tendency he had to fight against in many roles, but his star power counts for a lot. Angie Dickinson is attractive and effective, and James Gregory properly officious, but the best supporting performances come from Eddie Albert, Robert Duvall and the Oscar-nominated Bobby Darin. Darin's performance is the most surprising, revealing much more depth and talent than one would expect from his lighter roles, but Albert is equally as good, and Duvall impressive in a part that requires little speaking. The stories of these 3 men form the dramatic basis of the picture, and they play their parts for all they are worth.

"It's never too late to be the woman you want to be." Those are some of the inspiring words of wisdom proclaimed by Diane Von Furstenberg at the talk for the release of her new book, The Woman I Wanted to Be. Many women of all ages gathered at the Skirball Cultural Center last night to hear Diane in conversation with Maria Shriver.
Diane's words were both inspiring and moving, but her witty and down-to-earth personality is what makes her so relatable to all women. The designer spoke about her mother, the most important person in shaping her life, and who helped her become the woman she wanted to be. She shared with the audience many life lessons that were inspired by the strength and nature of her mother, a Holocaust survivor.
DVF's brand is all about empowering women, which was made clear when she told the audience that the most important relationship you can have with anyone is with yourself. She even admitted, "When you go to bed at night, first wink at yourself in the mirror, that's what I do!" Attendees left the event infused with confidence and enablement—just as she intends her clothing to do.

KVSC on the Big Stage
Over the weekend KVSC did something they had never done before, broadcast every game of the WCHA Final Five Tournament from the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul. KVSC entered the Al Shaver Press Box with WCHA.com and Fox Sports North in providing coverage of the event. KVSC covered the St Cloud State men's hockey game Friday afternoon live on 88.1 FM and all the other games on the KVSC Sports Stream. "I felt it was important to be a part of it" KVSC Co-Sports Director Scott Gross stated, "We had the credentials and the man power to do something no one else did before us. It gave our student announcers a chance to cut their teeth if they wanted to, to cover a historic event in the final year as we know it." The current WCHA will disband into three conferences next year.
Wisconsin won the tournament and the Broadmoor Trophy for the first time since 1998 by defeating Colorado College 3-2 on Saturday night. Wisconsin and the University of Minnesota will leave the WCHA after this season to join the new Big 10 conference. St Cloud State along with Colorado College, Denver, North Dakota, Duluth and Nebraska-Omaha will leave for the NCHC.
"We got to do a lot of things no one ever though we could, or dared." Gross said, "We have so many possibilities with the sports stream and we used it to our advantage. We interviewed coaches from other colleges and attended press conferences just like the big boys. I want to personally thank Jim Gray and Jo McMullen for the green light to cover this along with our dedicated staff including Co-Sports Director Gina Carlson, Bryan Kangas, Casey Mosich and Declan Goff. We've got some sports crazies down here in the basement of Stewart Hall and with people like that, there is no telling what our future holds."

There's no doubting that first person shooters are incredibly popular, though many gamers seem to have grown tired of seeing so many similar titles on the market. Call of Duty rules this genre with its yearly releases, and other titles like Battlefield pick up the slack with the remaining demographic. While breaking into an established genre with a new IP isn't an easy task, Respawn Entertainment hopes to do exactly that when Titanfall launches later this month. This online shooter wowed audiences when it made its debut at Microsoft's E3 conference last year, and took home the award for Most Anticipated Game at last year's Video Game Awards.
For those of you who may not have heard much about this upcoming title, we've compiled a list of five reasons why you should definitely be excited for Titanfall, which launches for the Xbox One and PC on March 11th. Xbox 360 owners will have to wait a little while longer for their version's March 25th release date.
For more news, reviews, interviews and features, check out Game On's Facebook page or follow us on Twitter. Will Holden can also be found on Twitter.
A rich story woven into multiplayer gameplay
The single player campaign isn't usually considered the main appeal of a first person shooter, as online multiplayer has become increasingly more popular over the years. That said, one of the issues some people seem to have with Titanfall is that it won't feature a single player campaign or a dedicated story mode. Many gamers may worry that the game's plot and lore will be swept aside in favor of focusing sole attention on combat.
Respawn Entertainment has already established that the game's plot will be integrated into the gameplay, with characters occasionally speaking with the player through a digital interface. Judging by the pre-release material, namely the trailers that show off the different Titan designs, the game will feature a universe rich in details for players to discover. We're looking forward to exploring this brand new world, and wonder how the giant, Lovecraftian creatures that stalk the background of some locations will factor into all of this.
New developer built by industry vets
Titanfall may be a new IP, but the people responsible for it have some serious credentials under their belt. It is being developed by Respawn Entertainment, which was formed back in 2010 by Jason West and Vince Zampella, both of whom helped co-found Infinity Ward. They also helped create the hugely successful Call of Duty franchise, so it's clear that they know how to handle this genre. The fact that they brought several of Infinity's team members along with them is a definite plus.
A new IP like Titanfall has the ability to let this experienced team step away from traditions so they can start off with fresh new ideas. It may be a big risk trying to break into such an established market this late in the game, but if anyone can pull it off, it should be Respawn.
Titans built for any gamer
What immediately sets Titanfall apart from other shooters is its use of battle mechs known as Titans. Players can jump inside one of these machines and blast away at their opponents with a bit more force than standard weaponry has to offer. Getting into a Titan offers a completely new way to play, and can be used at the player's discretion. Jumping in and out of a Titan takes only a few seconds, without the need to leave the battle, which means players can remain within the high-octane action at all times.
Three different Titans have been confirmed for Titanfall. The Ogre is slow to move, but offers incredible offense and defensive capabilities. It's the closest to being a 'tank'. On the other hand, the Stryder focuses on speed and agility, which will help players dodge attacks, whether the threat is another Titan or a player running on foot. The third class is the Atlas, which is the 'average' Titan. Its speed and durability are both adequate, though it may not excel at any particular attribute like the others.
Explore levels like never before
Of course, the Titans are far from the only unique gameplay element that Respawn is bringing to the table with Titanfall. This game will also feature parkour elements in a similar vein to games like Mirror's Edge. Players who choose to spend their time on foot will have the ability to run across walls and double jump over long gaps. This adds another dimension to the battlefield, where players will have to look above, below and around them for potential threats.
Players will also have to wait up to two minutes before their Titan spawns, though this timer can be reduced with successful kills. This means players will be spending a lot of time on the ground, getting to know the limits of their character's movements. Having so many ways to move throughout the level will lead to some intense matches.
Play, adapt, conquer
The biggest reason to be excited for Titanfall isn't one of the four we've mentioned already, but rather how they may combine to make one of the most unique FPS titles we've seen. Other games in the genre may offer different strategies based on weapon loadouts and level design, but Titanfall takes it one step further with the ability to move about and explore levels in ways we've never seen before. Jumping in and out of Titans is a game changer, and many strategies might be centered around trying to balance between mech and foot battles.
Several fans of the beta have stated that it took them about an hour to get used to this title's unique features. This means that there's plenty to learn for hardcore Call of Duty fans and newbies alike. This fresh start may be what some fans who are tired of the same old song and dance desperately need.

It is better to allow our lives to speak for us than our words. God did not bear the cross only two thousand years ago. He bears it today, and he dies and is resurrected from day to day. It would be a poor comfort to the world if it had to depend on a historical God who died two thousand years ago. Do not, then, preach the God of history, but show him as he lives today through you.
Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory.
If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I shall have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it, even if I may not have it at the beginning.
What is a war criminal? Was not war itself a crime against God and humanity, and, therefore, were not all those who sanctioned, engineered, and conducted wars, war criminals?

For a real $n \times n$ matrix $A$ the following are equivalent:
- $A$ is symmetric and positive definite
- There is an invertible matrix $P$ such that $A = P^{t} P$
This makes geometric sense when viewing $A$ as representing the dot product in some basis and the standard proof is based around this.
But is there a way to prove this viewing $A$ as a linear operator. What exactly is the geometric meaning of decomposing a symmetric positive definite operator into $P^{t}P$? What is the linear operator $P$ and $P^t$ doing that results in $P^t P =A$?

MEDINA — A city resident pleaded not guilty Tuesday to two counts of rape and two other sex-related charges.
James McDonald, 48, of 880 Deepwood Drive, is charged with one count of rape of a child younger than age 13, a first-degree felony; another rape count, also a first-degree felony; one count of gross sexual imposition, a fourth-degree felony; and one count of importuning, a fifth-degree felony.
McDonald allegedly engaged in sexual conduct with a 10-year-old girl in May 2005. The girl reportedly knew McDonald and was one of his daughter's friends, according to Medina police.
The sexual imposition and importuning counts stem from alleged incidents in April of this year, according to his grand jury indictment.
"The victim's parents brought her forward and made us aware of the allegations," Police Chief Pat Berarducci has said.
Berarducci said police began investigating the allegations around May 1.
Common Pleas Judge Christopher J. Collier set McDonald's trial for June 29. A pre-trial hearing is scheduled for June 23.
McDonald is being held in the Medina County Jail on $150,000 bond.

Parker police now have a fourth suspect in custody for the murder of 16 year old Jacob Hendershot.
Stephanie Pistey, 18, was arrested Monday and charged with accessory to murder. Investigators say Pistey was there when Hendershot was killed and helped cover it up. Authorities say posts on Pistey's Facebook helped investigators gather enough evidence to arrest her.
Three other people are also charged in connection to Hendershot's murder, James Gay, 20, and Joel Millsap, 25, and William Henry Chase, 17. Police found Hendershot's body in the woods near the Dupont Bridge last month.
Investigators say the teen was killed because Pistey, Chase's girlfriend, claimed Hendershot raped her.

Nikon Coolpix S620 review
I will bring this camera back to the store. I bought it to replace a stolen SD870/Ixus 860, but it can't match regarding colour. The colour quality of the S620 is disappointing, and in my opinion the colour quality of skin unacceptable. I used a Coolpix 3200 (3 mega pixels, my son has it now) which has, hands down, better image quality. Sometime more mega pixels is worse!
The controls and menus are good, e.g. always direct control over exposure compensation.
Start up time is very, very short!
Used for 6 days: people, nature, textile crafts, snapshots.
Used before:
Coolpix 990 - Powershot A80 - Coolpix 3200 - Finepix 9000 - Ixus 860 / SD 870 - D50
None, except colour quality
12 megapixels • 2.7″ screen • 28 – 112 mm (4×)

Signed, Sealed... Delivered? Phase One
Eco-labels, trust and behavior change across the value chain
Companies and brands are struggling with the question of how to mobilise consumers to give preference to products and brands that have the potential to deliver positive social and environmental outcomes. The tools available seem to be labels and brands, and I think there is room in the market for both. This research that SustainAbility is going to undertake will no doubt help us understand better how we can empower consumers. – Jan Kees Vis, Global Director Sustainable Sourcing, Unilever
More than ever before, customers have demonstrated that they are more likely to buy products and services from companies they trust. In response, a wide array of certification programs has been developed, creating confusion among customers and undue burden on farmers. We agree the industry needs to better understand what is meaningful to customers and works best for producers. SustainAbility is uniquely positioned to raise our collective thinking on this topic and the promise of certification. – Cliff Burrows, President, Starbucks Coffee Company
Today's supply chains span the globe. While a century ago we might have known where, how and who produced the things we eat, wear and use, in so many instances today all we know is what we're told. Such geographic and mental distance between where a good is produced and where it is consumed brings plenty of benefit, but also has the potential to create significant problems. And how can we be sure that what we're told can be trusted?
Enter the eco-label: the independently verified, on-pack label that tells the consumer a product was produced (think Fairtrade or organic) or can be consumed (think nutritional labels or Energy Star) in a more sustainable way. It's a powerful idea that combines sustainability standards-setting and branding, underpinned by the credibility of an independent body.
But thirty-three years after the world's first eco-label appeared (Germany's Blue Angel), we think the time is right to ask: How well has the eco-label lived up to its ambitions? How does the model need to evolve to accelerate more sustainable modes of production and consumption as seven billion of us – and counting – bump up against the limits of the planet's natural resources? And how can it be complemented by other ways of creating trust and influencing behavior change across global supply chains? This white paper documents the initial findings of a research project that will tackle these questions.
The full final report is now available and can be downloaded here.

In the 10 months since it was released, Green Day's American Idiot album has topped the Billboard albums chart, sold more than 3.8 million copies, topped critics' lists and taken home a truckload of awards, including the Grammy for Best Rock Album. So you'd think frontman Billie Joe Armstrong would be used to all the accolades by now.
But mere hours after he'd learned that Green Day had been nominated for eight Video Music Awards (more than anyone else), Armstrong was still having a hard time wrapping his head around the idea of taking home multiple Moonmen (see "Green Day, Gwen, Missy Nab Most Nominations For MTV Video Music Awards" ).
"This whole thing has just been surreal and overwhelming. It's an amazing feeling when you get recognized for one thing, but when you get nominated eight times over, it goes to a whole new level," he laughed. "When we first started this band, we didn't even expect to make videos, and now we're getting nominated for videos. Words can't describe it, but we're going to come and kick ass and have a good time."
Green Day's eight nominations were spread between two of Idiot's songs, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," which scored six nods (for Video of the Year, Best Group Video, Best Rock Video, Best Direction in a Video, Best Cinematography in a Video and Best Editing in a Video), and "American Idiot," which took home nominations in the Best Video Game Soundtrack category (it appears on EA's "Madden 2005") and for Best Art Direction in a Video.
It's enough nominations to make anyone's head spin, Armstrong's included. But he feels vindicated by nods, especially given the uphill struggle that went into making American Idiot (see "Road To The Grammys: The Making Of Green Day's American Idiot" ). And on awards night, he hopes to share some of that recognition with Samuel Bayer, the man who's directed all three videos off the album.
"Sam has got the same sort of heart that we do — he wants to reach something that is great. And he's incredibly passionate about the way he does his art. So for him to get the recognition is great too," Armstrong said. "It's great to be recognized for something that you worked very hard for. And that just doesn't go for our album, but for our videos, too. We wanted them to be the some of the greatest rock videos ever made."
And Green Day look to keep that goal alive with a pair of upcoming clips, both directed by Bayer. First up is the video for "Wake Me Up When September Ends," which the band shot back in March (see "It's A Dark Day For Green Day In Somber 'September' Video" ), and which Armstrong promises will leave viewers "floored."
" 'Wake Me Up' is very intense and emotional. It's not the kind of video where people go, 'I like that video' or 'I don't like that video.' It's intense," he said. "It's not a 'cool' video — it's more like a seven-minute film."
And perhaps that's what got Armstrong thinking about Green Day's next project: a video for "Jesus of Suburbia," one of two nine-plus minute centerpieces on Idiot. The video will be such an undertaking that the band is also planning on making it into a full-fledged film.
"We're already planning for 'Jesus of Suburbia.' We're going to be making a video for the whole thing," Armstrong said. "We're working with Sam again, and we're throwing ideas around. If anything, it might be a prequel to what some people would consider a movie. We'll see what happens. Basically it's just another risk worth taking — we've had a whole year of that now, and it's great. Right now I feel like this is the band that I've always wanted to be in — musically, stylistically, all of it."

Demand: Suspend Judge Who Hid NIF-Related Conflict of Interest
In a political case, Judge Ruth Ronen ruled in favor of Gisha, which is supported by the NIF. Ronen's husband sits on the NIF's board.
By Gil Ronen
First Publish: 4/11/2011, 8:03 PM / Last Update: 4/11/2011, 8:11 PM
Courts Website
MK Michael Ben-Ari (National Union) sent an urgent letter Monday to Minister of Justice Yaakov Ne'eman and Supreme Court President Dorit Beinisch, demanding that they suspend Tel Aviv District Court Judge Ruth Ronen for presiding over a sensitive political case involving the New Israel Fund despite a clear conflict of interest.
Ma'ariv journalist Ben-Dror Yemini revealed that Ronen ruled in favor of a motion by extreme-leftist group Gisha, and ordered the State to reveal an internal document that deals with the supply of food to Gaza, as well as the names of the people who authored it. The document spells out the minimal nutritional level of the residents of Gaza that needs to be maintained - despite the fact that Israel is not responsible for Gazans' level of nutrition.
Revelation of the document would presumably assist Israel's enemies in portraying Israel as responsible for Gazan's health and well-being, Yemini explained.
Judge Ronen accepted Gisha's motion based on the Freedom of Information Law even though it specifies that the State does not have to supply information that could "hurt the State's security, its foreign relations and the security of the public."
In any case, Ronen should have recused herself from the case from the outset, Yemini explained, because her husband, Ze'ev Bergman, is a member of the board of the New Israel Fund, which supported Gisha directly in the past and continues to support it through Shatil, the NIF's operative arm.
Critics of the ultra-leftist New Israel Fund say that it influences large parts of Israel's judicial, journalistic and political elites, through a sophisticated network of non-governmental organizations, like Gisha. The Fund has also been accused of aiding Israel's enemies in demonizing Israel.
The revelations against Ronen appear to be a case in point. So far, most websites have ignored the story, and no Knesset members except Ben-Ari have summoned up the courage to demand Ronen's suspension.

A Long Island couple has been charged with grand larceny and child endangerment after cops said the man took his girlfriend's 8-year-old girl to allegedly help them steal car tires and rims because he was "spooked" to pull off the break-in alone, according to court papers and a March 25 Associated Press report.
Diana Censoprano, 38, and Spencer Stewart, 34, both of Selden, were arrested Monday night on larceny, stolen property and child endangerment charges, Riverhead Town Police said.
According to police reports, an officer was on patrol around 11:30 p.m. when he saw Censoprano backing her car up along a dirt road across from Mid Island Auto Parts on Kroemer Avenue in Riverhead. As the officer approached the car, he allegedly found "numerous radiators, tires and rims inside the vehicle," a police report said.
Censoprano was driving, Stewart was in the passenger's seat and her 8-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son were also inside the car, cops said.
Investigators later learned Stewart took the 8-year-old girl with him and the two allegedly climbed over a fence to gain entry to the junk yard.
"I was spooked to go in the junk yard alone so I brought the 8 year old girl," Stewart allegedly told police after his arrest, according to court documents.
Cops said Censoprano waited in the car with the 4-year-old while her boyfriend and young daughter allegedly pulled off the heist.
"While Spencer and my daughter were in the junk yard, my son and I played Uno," Censoprano told investigators, according to court papers. "I'm not sure how long they were in the junk yard, but while they were in there I kept yelling out the window 'I want to go home.'"
Censoprano and Stewart were arrested at the scene and the children were released to a family member. Authorities said the state's child welfare agency was also notified.
The two were arraigned at the Riverhead Town Justice Court. Details from the court proceeding were not immediately available.

Lisa Vanderpump's PUMP has opened!
The Grand opening of PUMP was a glitzy celebration of reality stars and great looking individuals.
Lisa's husband and partner Ken Todd was dressed to the nines and beaming with pride about his wife's work.
About PUMP he said, "It was bit of a labor of love and it took a long time but good things take a long time. We're happy it's finished and we're very proud of it … Lisa is so good with her designs and putting things together that we're happy, I'm happy, she's so clever."
Real Estate developer Mohamed Hasid said he thinks the place is genius, "I think it's gorgeous, and I have been to a lot of places. Shiva and I have been around the world and this is very unique."
Shiva Safari is engaged to Mohamed and shared the same excitement for the beauty that makes up PUMP
Mohamed continued, "It is an amazing place for everyone to be here. It has all the touches of Lisa! She is impeccable in everything she does."
Shiva shared, "It is very hard to do both sexy and romantic at the same time and Lisa captured both elements. It has the perfect touch of femininity. Everything is perfection."
PUMP features an intimate inside lounge that opens to an elegant outside patio. It is stunning; a beautiful mystic space with chandeliers, cozy luxury seating, great lighting, and of course attractive bars and bartenders.
Joyce Giraud and her husband Michael Ohoven were very complimentary about PUMP
Joyce said, "I love Lisa. She is such as strong, gorgeous woman that I have learned so much from, and she has been a very supportive friend."
About the Housewives of Beverly Hills, Joyce shared that she has met some good friends and that there are some she could never see again in her life, but, "It is what it is."
Joyce was a fan of the show before becoming a part of it. "I think it is an amazing platform. I did want to promote my charity, Queen of the Universe. Thanks to my pageant, I am opening my first school in Africa for kindergartners. I am a Latino and it is also important to show class and dignity and not the stereotype ..."
Her husband shared that he always protects his wife. "She can defend herself quite honestly, but some ladies overstep boundaries and that is when I had to step in. Overall I had a great time, the guys are all great. The guys are much easier."
I spoke with Gretchen Rossi who along with Slade Smiley will soon be seen in the television show, "Reality Stars Marriage Boot Camp." Gretchen said about the Boot camp, "In the end it made us stronger."
PUMP is a plush experience, a definite winner, and I can't wait to go again.

Contests where fans can win a chance to hang out with their favorite pop star don't always go super-well—cough, cough—but we have a good feeling about this one: As part of Pepsi's promotion for Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show, the singer is inviting 100 of her biggest fans to join her on broadcast television's biggest stage this February.
The contest itself is pure Web 2.0 social media branding strategy: Fans can send Pepsi a picture of themselves doing one of a series of specific poses, Pepsi will use these photos in a commercial, and of these the soda company will choose 50 entrants to grace the stage with Bey herself. (They'll also get to bring a friend with them, which is how we get to 100. Can't have any lonely fans Eeyore-ing up the show!)
What will these fans do once their onstage? We're not sure yet, but given the amount of work kids will likely put into this, we hope they give them more to do than just jump up and down in an adoring fashion. Is a mass dance-off too much to hope for? We will accept both "Single Ladies" and "Countdown."
Fans have until January 11 to submit their shots at Pepsi's halftime show website. Good luck!

Andrew Hill: Siete Ocho
Siete Ocho
Andrew Hill (piano)
Judgment (Blue Note 63841)
Andrew Hill (piano), Bobby Hutcherson (vibes), Richard Davis (bass), Elvin Jones (drums).
Composed by Andrew Hill.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, January 8, 1964
Rating: 99/100 (learn more)
This is a fascinating intersection, because we have Andrew Hill with Elvin Jones, two powerful forces. Also, Hill and Bobby Hutcherson had a powerful relationship over the decades, which is well crystallized on this album. This is their first recording together; Dialogue came later. It's a great composition. As the title suggests, it's a 7-beat metrical form. The head is 20 bars. Andrew loved these irregular forms. Often the three-fold nature of the blues form came through in his compositions, even if they didn't strictly adhere to that exact form. It's more like these different sections would answer each other in unexpected, irregular ways that got away from the Tin Pan Alley, 32-bar format. He had interesting ways of grouping things.
Everything about this piece is great—the intensity, the lyrical quality, and especially hearing Elvin Jones drive this 7-beat cycle. Elvin sounds fantastic. The bassline is this insistent vamp, a rhythmic ostinato that persists throughout, and Richard Davis, perhaps more than is typical for him, anchors that rhythmic figure very firmly. I think often that happens when you introduce novel rhythmic structure: people hew to the written foundation a little more, because it's less obvious how to depart from it. But here, because Davis does that, it frees up everyone else. Things get a bit ragged at times, but that's because they're reaching beyond the obvious. For example, what Andrew does in his solo strikes me every time I listen to this track. He creates his own rhythmic gravity. Towards the climax of his solo, the original rhythm becomes dwarfed by the intensity of his own rhythmic space that he's creating, so you hear that 7/8 part as a mere satellite orbiting Andrew's solo. It's mesmerizing.

You'll never be able to spin your neck around 180 degrees, but after a couple of bottles of wine, you sure might think it's a possibility. Just look at this totes adorbs Owl Cork Holder ($35): he can hold as many as 115 corks, so we're going to assume that excessive wine consumption has everything to do with his neck turning abilities.

Disease Proof
Pass on the Processed Chicken
This product from Australia - Inghams Chicken Steaks - note the "100% Chicken Breast" at bottom right? Let's compare this with the ingredients.Now, I'd NEVER eat either of these, but the point is clear. Stay away from manufactured food and stick with what Mother Nature intended—agreed?
"CHICKEN (51%), WATER, FLOUR (WHEAT, RYE, SOY), SALT, THICKENERS (1404, 412), "... and the list goes on…
…KFC chicken Strips From KFC: "Juicy, 100% all-white meat chicken breast".
Let's take a look at the ingredients (buried deep within the KFC site):
Chicken Breast Strips Containing up to 43% of a Solution of: Water, Seasoning (Soy Protein Concentrate, Salt, Rice Starch, Carrageenan, Dextrose, Onion Powder, Dehydrated Chicken Broth, Maltodextrin, Spice Extractives), Sodium Phosphate. Breaded with Wheat Flour, Salt, Spices, Monosodium Glutamate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Garlic Powder, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean and Cottonseed Oil, Calcium Silicate (as Anticaking Agent), Modified Corn Starch, Gum Arabic, Natural Flavor, Extractives of Turmeric, and Extractives of Annatto
Isn't that word, "Solution" scary? :O
Sounds like Dr. Frankenstein whipped up this stuff. Eek.
Wow that's pretty shocking - is it legal to label them as 100% chicken when they're clearly not? I'm glad I'm a vegetarian!
Carrageenan is a WONDERFUL additive, that makes ice cream taste delicious. I don't know what I would do if 99.999% of ice cream produced in the US stopped using Carrageenan, xanthan and guar gums, and so on. I guess I'd be left with that nasty, and undesirable "Old-Fashioned" taste of CREAM, milk and sugar. eeeeeeew. I like my ice cream to have a nice slimy texture and be half-melted when I scoop it out of the container. Mm mm! Then I get that nice vaseline-coating inside my mouth and stomach from all the carrageenan! Delicious! HOW DARE you insult carrageenan. Don't you realize that carrageenan is in almost everything, including DELI MEATS (cold cuts)???>~? YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM IT. PEOPLE ARE BEING CONDITIONED TO ACCEPT THE MOUTHFEEL OF CARRAGEENAN. FIRST WE PUT IT IN ICE CREAM, THEN SOYMILK, THEN YOGURT, THEN MILKSHAKES, THEN COLD CUTS, THEN...your soul!!!!!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA. There's no stopping the slimy carrageenan machine. Don't even try. OH, you keep citing some vague wikipedia entry generated by the carrageenan PR minions who claim that "Irish housewives" have been boiling and eating carrageenan for centuries. Oh really. Then why has it only been forced upon us for the past 10 years? It's about as natural as MSG. I don't care about the health effects of it. The point is that it's nasty, and I hate the texture of it, and what it does to my beloved whipped cream and ice cream. TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT CARRAGEENAN, if they don't believe it's bad and nasty, make them some homemade whipped/ice cream and MAKE THEM TASTE THE DIFFERENCE. FIGHT THE GOD DAMN CARRAGEENAN RACKET BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
P.S. Forgot it was in chicken too. GROSS.
Most of this stuff seems like spices. Ovbiously breaded fried chicken is going to have flour and oil. What exactly is the ingredient we have a problem with?
I don't think I want to eat chicken without spices. Plain old salt and pepper is great, but variety is also nice.

I have WebSVN, Gitlab and phpMyAdmin hosted on my dev server. Now, all of it, I password protect the pages (not their individual login) using HTTP Basic Auth, is this the best practice that I can do?
