Man gets revenge on porch package poacher
Mike Zaremba says he has had three packages stolen from the front porch of his home in Riverside, Calif.
On Tuesday, with help from his Great Dane and a handful of other dogs, he got some revenge.
After a birthday party for his one-year-old dog, Zaremba scooped all the poop seven canine guests had left in the yard, packed it neatly into a white priority mail box and left it on his front porch.
As he suspected, the thief (or at least a thief) struck again, and Zaremba's security cam recorded him making off with the box on a bicycle, CBS in Los Angeles reported.
"At first I really felt violated even though I knew what was inside the package, I was still like, he stole from me!" Zaremba said.
Zaremba said a friend gave him the idea.
He laid out his plan beforehand on his Facebook page:
"I'm expecting some packages from USPS and UPS… but there have been a lot of package thefts lately. So tomorrow I'm going to package up a box full of dog [poop] and leave it on my front porch. I'm going to have a camera rolling so if I catch the thief I can turn the footage into the news," he wrote Tuesday.
Riverside police eventually tracked down the alleged taker of the purloined poop, whose name is Daniel Aldama. He no longer had the package by then.
"He dropped it as soon as he found out. He didn't want nothing to do with it and kept on riding," Ronel Newton of the Riverside Police Department said.

Great Dane helps girl find her balance
Fifth grader Bella Burton has gained both confidence and mobility since a service dog came into her life last year — a dog that outweighs her three to one.
George, a Great Dane who tips the scales at 131, was paired with Bella through the Service Dog Project, an Ipswich, Mass.-based non-profit organization that trains and matches Great Danes with people who have mobility and balance limitations.
Bella, who turned 11 last week, has a rare genetic disorder called Morquio Syndrome, or Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) IV.
"She used to pretty much be confined to a wheelchair or have to use crutches to get around, but with George, she's become so much stronger and active," said Bella's mom, Rachel.
Since George loped into the picture late last year Bella has gone from dreading school to enjoying it.
"I couldn't play on the playground, and I had to use crutches when I was at home," Bella said. "Now, I'm running outside and I love to go to school."
Bella and George were featured on ABC News last week.
Next month, George will be honored by the American Kennel Club (AKC) as one of five dogs to receive the Award for Canine Excellence, at the AKC's national championships in Orlando, Fla.
The Burtons spent about a year trying to find Bella the right balance support dog. Once Bella met George, the two bonded almost immediately.
Last October George started staying with the Burtons on weekends. By January, George was permanently placed with the Burtons, who have two other non-service dogs.
Bella and family plan to donate the $1,000 cash prize from the AKC to the Service Dog Project.
"Between the training and adoption fees, it probably costs around $20,000," Rachel said. "They didn't want a dime when they placed George with us."

World's tallest dog dies of "old age" — at 5
Zeus, the world's tallest dog, is dead.
The Great Dane passed away earlier this month — two months shy of his sixth birthday — from "symptoms of old age," according to his owner.
Great Danes have shorter life spans than most dogs — most likely the result of breeders intent on making the breed larger yet, and the strain that size puts on their organs — which only makes the death of Zeus doubly sad.
"We'll really miss him," said Zeus' owner, Kevin Doorlag, of Otsego, Michigan.
Doorlag and his wife, Denise say Zeus was a "wonderful dog" — famous both for Guinness World Record-setting size, and for his work as a therapy dog in their hometown.
He stood 44 inches at the shoulder — 7 feet, 4 inches on his hind legs. He claimed the Guinness World Record in 2012, and still held the title in the 2013 and 2014 editions.
The previous World's Tallest Dog was Giant George, a Tuscon, Arizona, Great Dane. He died at age 7.
Kevin Doorlag said one of the things he will miss most is seeing the joy Zeus brought to others.
The death of Zeus is, first and foremost, a time to remember and celebrate Zeus.
But if it makes us question why, in the name of seeking extremes, we accept purebred breeding practices that lead to ill health and short lives, that's fine, too. They're in need of questioning.
What there's less need for — whether it's in pursuit of ribbons, world records, or sales — is making fluffy dogs fluffier, long and skinny dogs longer and skinnier, short snouted dogs even more shortly snouted.
We don't need (sorry, Marmaduke) cartoonish dogs, or dogs that, through breeding them with close relatives, become exaggerated caricatures of their breed.
Healthy dogs will do just fine.

Bartender gets $1,000 tip to help pay for her dog's surgery
The paw-print tattoo on Christina Summitt's wrist often gets conversations started — not that, in her job bartending at a Holiday Inn in New Jersey, she needs any help with that.
A week ago Saturday, two customers asked her about it, and whether she had a dog of her own.
Indeed she does, one of whom is a Great Dane-Labrador mix named Tucker who, she told the man and woman, was at the veterinary hospital having emergency surgery after he swallowed a tennis ball.
The man commented about how expensive that was probably going to be, and Summitt confided that she'd received an estimate of $2,700.
But Tucker, who she adopted in 2011, was her baby, she explained, and she'd sell her car, if necessary, to pay for the operation.
After the conversation, Summitt got busy behind the bar of the Clinton Holiday Inn, and the couple ordered more drinks and dinner. When it was time to close out their $80 tab, the man filled out a tip for her on the receipt — for $1,000.
Upon seeing the amount, Summitt said she started crying and showed the receipt to her sister, who tends bar with her. She wanted to make sure there really were three zeros after the 1.
"I went back over and said 'Sir, I cannot accept this, what is this for, why would you do this?''" Summitt said. He told her to put it toward Tucker's medical costs.
"I just stood there in shock. I walked around and hugged this couple."
Summitt, in addition to working three jobs, is a volunteer with a pit bull rescue group, according to CNN, which initially carried her self-reported story as an iReport.
Summitt, 37, wrote a Facebook post about, and it went on to appear, on Easter morning, on the Facebook page "Why Bartenders and Servers Hate People."
Not everyone believed it initially, but it was true.
Hotel manager Michelle Satanik told CNN she tracked down the customer to verify that the gesture was legitimate.
"Apparently this man does this quite frequently. Just a really nice guy and humanitarian," Satanik said.
In case that's not a happy enough ending, Tucker's operations was a success, and he's recovering at home.

The soon-to-be world's tallest dog?
Freddy, an 18-month-old Great Dane from Great Britain, already stands 7-foot-4 on his hind legs, and he appears headed to taking the world's tallest dog title away from a Great Dane in Michigan.
He's outgrown Britain's previous tallest dog, and has long since surpassed, in terms of height, his owner, Claire Stoneman, who stands 5 feet 4 inches.
Stoneman said Freddy was the runt of the litter, but he has grown quickly on a diet of regular dog food ($100 worth a week), peanut butter on toast, and sofas, of which he has destroyed — but not consumed — 14.
Stoneman said it took a while for Freddy, who now weighs 154 pounds, to get used to her small home in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.
Stoneman said she and Freddy get up early for walks so they won't encounter other dogs.
"If he wants to run after a dog, I wouldn't be able to stop him," she said.
The current world's tallest dog is Zeus, a Great Dane from Otsego, Mich., who was 7-foot-4 (standing on his hind legs) when he was recognized by Guinness World Record in 2012.
You can find more photos of Freddy at the New York Post (click the link for the full slide show).
Freddy now measures 41 inches from foot to shoulder blade, compared with Zeus' 44 inches.

Supersize me: Americans turning to big dogs
Big dogs — not that they ever left — are coming back.
In its annual report on breed popularity in the U.S., the American Kennel Club notes that, while the Labrador retriever is again the most popular dog breed, other large breeds are quickly moving up the list, including Dobermans, giant schnauzers and Great Danes.
According to the AKC, it could be a sign of an improving economy.
"Owning bigger breeds – an economic indicator of sorts – has been on the rise during the past five years," said Lisa Peterson, AKC spokeswoman. "As the economy has improved, people are turning back to the big dogs they love, which cost more to feed and care for than the smaller breeds that saw a rise in popularity in 2007 and 2008."
Labs took the top spot for the 23rd straight year, the longest consecutive reign of any dog in the annual ranking. The rankings are based on the number of AKC dog registrations across the country.
Here are the top 10, with links to their AKC profiles:
1. Labrador Retriever
2. German Shepherd Dog
3. Golden Retriever
4. Beagle
5. Bulldog
6. Yorkshire Terrier
7. Boxer
8. Poodle
9. Rottweiler
10. Dachshund
Comparing those rankings to the 2009 list, there's evidence of a decline in small dog popularity — Yorkies dropped three places, from third, dachshunds dropped two, from eighth, and shih tzus fell out of the top 10 entirely.
Some smaller breeds saw a gain in popularity, like the French bulldog (now 11th). But far greater gains were made by greatly sized dogs: Doberman Pinschers rose from 22 to 12; Great Danes from 27 to 16; and Bernese Mountain Dogs from 47 to 32.
The AKC announced its rankings Friday, in advance of the upcoming Westminster Kennel Club dog show at Madison Square Garden.
Three new breeds will compete this year: rat terriers, Chinooks, and Portuguese Podengo Pequenos.

Traumatized dog finds some deer friends
Eleven days after Lacy, a Great Dane, ran away from a highway accident in Michigan she was found and returned to her owner.
But the odd part of this story came at the nine-day mark, when Lacy's owner, Jamie Brill, who'd been searching for days with her boyfriend, spotted her dog in a field, through a pair of binoculars.
Lacy was standing next to two adult whitetail does and two fawns.
"Mark handed me the binoculars and said, 'Do you believe this?' I looked, and Lacy was licking the head of one of the fawns," Brill told Lansing State Journal columnist John Schneider.
When Brill tried calling Lacy from afar, she didn't budge, remaining instead with the deer.
Brill, stationed with the U.S. Navy in Grand Rapids, rolled her Mini Cooper on Interstate 96 on Aug. 11. Her two dogs – Lacy and Koko – were in the car. Brill was taken to the hospital. Koko was taken to a veterinarian, and Lacy ran off.
Two days after Lacy was spotted hobnobbing with the deer, Schneider, the newspaper columnist, got a call from a man who had spotted Lacy — whose disappearance by then had become a big story.
Schneider called Brill in Grand Rapids, and she called a Lansing veterinarian who had been involved in the search and agreed to check out the sighting.
Veterinarian Leslie Ortlieb drove to the vacant house and on its porch saw Lacy, who was described as being a skittish sort even before the accident.
But Ortlieb apparently said the right words: "Do you want to go see Koko?"
The Great Dane walked up to her and got into her car.
Lacy was emaciated and had a small cut on her leg, but otherwise appeared in good health.

"Staff kept everyone upbeat"
About: Victoria Hospital / General Surgery Victoria Hospital General Surgery KY2 5AH
Posted by deblorc (as ),
All you hear are bad reports on the NHS, so I was very wary when I had to go in to the Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy for an operation.
I should not have been concerned as when I entered Ward 31, I was greeted by the senior charge nurse and taken to my room. The staff on the ward were exceptional, especially the day shift nursing assistants, who went the extra mile to ensure your stay was comfortable.
A special thanks to N/A Sandra for my soup lol and S/N Sharon who were second to none. Full of laughs and kept everyone upbeat.
Response from Louise Ewing, Patient Relations Manager, NHS Fife nearly 2 years ago
Dear Deblorc
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your positive experience which was great to hear. Coming into hospital is never easy and unfortunately it tends to be the bad news stories that make the headlines, which can be very frightening. I am sure the staff in Ward 31 will be delighted to receive your feedback as will the Management Team, so I will gladly share your post with them.
Your post has made me stop and think about the importance of positivity in the workplace and the important role of laughter, so today I pledge to make someone smile, thanks to you!
Wishing you a speedy recovery

what should one do when he is in a relationship with a rich girl and he happens to be running broke by day but the girlfriend sims as if she doesn't mind and continuously takes him out and pays the hotel bill and buys him credit for his mobile?
Most Helpful Guy
Sometimes in a relationship the man is having trouble and the girl will pay and at other times its the other way around. It honestly shouldn't be a problem if your trying to get a job and you work. If your unemployed and not interested in getting a job than yes its a problem.00|00|0
I completely agree! HONESTLY! Be careful though because if it goes on for too long, she'll get sick of it and you'll hear about.

AIMA Under Graduate Aptitude Test- BHM (AIMA UGAT BHM - 2017)
Q - What is the validity of UGAT score?
Validity of the UGAT score is for that particular session for most MI's.
How to Prepare
Preparation Strategy
Make a proper Time Table
It is very important that you make a timetable and stick to it and you will have an exact idea of what you are required to study and the time required for it.
Concept clarity rather than rotes learning
It is essential that you have a clear idea of the formulas and concepts rather than rote learning of things for the papers. While you might require it for memorizing formulas it is important that for other stuff you make sure you clear your basics and concepts before moving on.
Prepare Notes
It is very important to make small notes or a comprehensive list of formulas on each covered topic and chapter which will come in handy at the time of revision. This will require you to be regular with your work but will surely make things easy at the time of revision.
Seek guidance
It is not possible for you to know everything in your syllabus, at least not at the time of preparation. Sooner or later you will run into a concept or so which will give you trouble and then it is best you seek guidance from an instructor or a teacher. It is necessary that you clear your doubts at regular intervals and don't prolong things for long. Getting into a good coaching class is nothing to be ashamed off and if anything a regular coaching class will enable you to avoid roadblocks in your preparation.
Sample Papers
Even though there may be a complete change in the exam pattern or the expected questions altogether, it is important that you practice on the sample and previous years question papers. You will know the existing pattern and have a fair idea of the type of questions to expect in the paper along with the time constraint.
Mock tests
The paper pattern, duration of the paper and the number of questions to be attempted in the given amount of time is not something you will be able to pick up on the day of the examination. A Mock Test tests a student's abilities as it not only provides a similar feel of real exams but also helps in building speed and confident to face the exam. Furthermore, they can improve their performance to get an extra edge in actual exams.
Time management
Time management can be learned through thorough practice and regular test taking. So it is important that you practice it and practice it well.
Negative marking
Most the entrance examinations will have negative marking and everyone would suggest you stay clear of questions are not sure about. But some experts are of the opinion that you answer the questions in which you are confused between an option or two because there will also be a chance of getting it right.

Whether you've been blogging for many years or you're just getting started, it's essential to know which tools, resources, and services will benefit you the most. While there are many different options, and of course you'll get many different opinions, today I'm going to share my suggestions for the 5 tools every blogger needs. Keep reading.
- A high-quality, reliable web host. This is one of the most important decisions you'll make as a blogger. A reputable and dependable web host is an absolute must, because it's the very foundation of your site. There are many available choices, and my favorite is HostGator. I've been with them for almost 3 years, and it's been a great experience. I've had very little downtime on my site, and on the couple of occasions when I've had a problem, HostGator's customer service was amazing and quick to resolve my issue.
- A premium blog theme. There are so many blog themes available out there, and some of them are even free. But with a premium theme, your customization options will be greater and your site performance will be better, making the user experience far more enjoyable for your readers. I love the Studiopress themes, as well as Restored 316 and Pretty Darn Cute Design. The versatile Genesis framework can be used with child themes from any of these providers.
- A quality photo editor. I used to think that as a blogger, I had to buy and learn to use an expensive and complicated editing program like PhotoShop. Nope. There are some great online options available, like Picmonkey. With both free and paid versions, I believe most bloggers can do everything they need with a Picmonkey account.
- An awesome way to capture email addresses and send new blog posts. I can't recommend Mailchimp highly enough whether you want to send a full-blown newsletter, or just push new blog posts out to your readers as you publish them. Depending upon the size of your subscriber list, you might even be able to use Mailchimp for free and if not, you'll find their prices more than reasonable.
- A great blogging roadmap. I've written before about Building a Framework, the amazing blogging e-book by Abby Lawson. This book is an easy read, and it's one you'll want to refer back to again and again because it chock full of so much incredible information. No matter how long you've been blogging, there is something in this book that will be beneficial for you. I promise.
These are just a few of the tools I use for my blog each and every day, and they're the same tools I recommend to my clients. You won't go wrong putting your trust in any of these resources, and that's a promise I feel comfortable making.

If there is a fight between two brothers and if they are unwilling to patch up, then you would seek help of third party to resolve differences. Currently that seems to be the case with the state of Andhra Pradesh post its forced bifurcation.
However, what if third party takes decisions, which are unfavorable such that brothers themselves could have solved it favorably? Well, after Central Water Commission officials ordering Telangana government to release water for Andhra and their mediation, the scene has changed.
According to reports, the Telangana CM KCR is reportedly of the view that inviting Delhi into matters between AP and Telangana would be counterproductive. If reports are to be believed, KCR, once a close confidante of Naidu is slightly mellowing down.
And maybe eventually reconciled to the fact that it is better to talk to Andhra Pradesh CM Babu and resolve differences than invite Delhi to meddle in between. But knowing the feudalistic mindset of KCR, some of the experts say this patch up might take a long time.

Harry Styles tells Ed Sheeran: Buy more posh cars
Harry Styles encouraged Ed Sheeran to buy a posh car.
The 'Thinking Out Loud' hitmaker has revealed he gifted one of his team members a Porsche but the One Direction star - who is known for his love of top motors - told him to stop being so "relatable".
Ed told the Daily Star newspaper: "I give good bonuses. I gave my sound guy a Porsche for Christmas ...
"Harry had a right go at me and said, 'I get it, you're relatable, now get an Aston Martin!'"
Meanwhile, Ed - who drives a Mini Cooper - previously revealed he considered quitting music.
He recalled: "There came a point when I wanted to quit. When I thought, 'This is horrible. This isn't going to work.'
"It was December 2010 and I'd sold out Cargo in Shoreditch, the biggest show I'd ever played. There were 500 people there ... even my dad turned up."
Despite the success of his show, the 'Lego House' hitmaker felt like he would never make it as a successful artist.
He added: "After the show, I was drinking with my dad and loads of other people. One by one, they started leaving. My dad said, 'Do you mind if I get off?' Then it was just me and the bar staff.
"I was really drunk, but very aware that I had no money on me at all. I'd spent all the cash I had buying people drinks. 'This isn't great,' I thought."

Hugh and Colin both hit 50 this week – but which of the British stars do you think looks the youngest. Take a look at our photos and vote!
The English actors turn 50 this week. But is Hugh Grant's cheeky charm turning your legs to jelly or are Firth's brooding dark looks stealing your heart?
They were born a day from each other (Grant was born September 9th and Firth on the 10th), have acted in films together and they both have a quintessential Englishness about them. Hugh Grant and Colin Firth are two of today's most successful and dashing British actors and it's hard to believe that they are both going to be 50 this week!
But there are a few differences between the two thespians....
Grant has a real playful streak about him, whilst Firth has a brooding charm that women can't resist.
Grant is an eternal bachelor and is still single since his 13 year relationship with Liz Hurley and his 3 year one with socialite and charity fundraiser Jemima Khan ended whilst Firth has been married to his stunning Italian wife Livia Giuggioli for 13 years and the couple have two children.
Despite this and playing love rivals in the Bridget Jones films, Grant and Firth are said to get on rather well in real life.
But who is your favourite 50 year old out of the two? Does Grant 's cheeky charm do it for you or are Firth 's dark looks your soft spot? Take a look at our gallery and clips from Bridget Jones to help you make your mind up.

S&DT Monitoring Mechanism Taking Shape
A group of WTO ambassadors have reached a tentative agreement on the shape of a 'monitoring mechanism' that would review the functioning of the multilateral trading system's provisions for 'special and differential treatment' (S&DT) for developing countries, and possibly suggest improvements to those provisions.
The ambassadors, from developed and developing countries representing a cross-section of interests among the WTO's membership, have been holding regular, informal meetings to discuss the spectrum of issues in the Doha Round negotiations. They have produced a short document on "guiding principles" for the S&DT monitoring mechanism.
The proposal was discussed Wednesday in a small group of delegates; the chair of the Committee on Trade and Development special session (CTD-SS) may bring it forward in a meeting of all members next week, sources say.
As per the document, the mechanism "shall act as a focal point within the WTO to analyse and review [the] implementation of S&DT provisions. It shall complement, not replace other relevant review mechanisms in other bodies of the WTO." It would "regularly evaluate the utilization and effectiveness of S&DT provisions, with a view to ensuring that they are effectively and better implemented." Notably, it is charged with proposing action, "as appropriate," that would strengthen and improve the reviewed provisions.
One of the sticking points in WTO discussions on an S&DT monitoring mechanism has been whether it would be a negotiating body or a transparency exercise focusing more on improved implementation. Generally, developing countries favoured the former, with developed countries preferring the latter. The "guiding principles" document struck a compromise by specifying first that the "monitoring mechanism is not a negotiating body" but immediately opening the door to "recommendations or proposals for opening negotiations as applicable in other WTO bodies over the S&DT provision(s) reviewed."
The monitoring mechanism is to operate through "dedicated sessions" of the Committee on Trade and Development.
The Doha mandate instructs members to review "all special and differential treatment provisions... with a view to strengthening them and making them more precise, effective and operational."

9 Upcoming Books Publishing Insiders Think Will Be Hits: Today in Critical Linking
Critical Linking is sponsored today by Penguin Random House and Room & Board. Enter here for a chance to win a modern reading nook stocked with books (or just click the image below).
9 New Books Publishing People Are Betting Will Be Hits
Kirkus walks through nine new titles that publishing thinks will be the next bestsellers. We shall see.
Ta-Nehisi Coates can add another feather to a cap that already sports a MacArthur "genius" grant and a National Book Award: a bestselling comic. His first venture into the genre, Black Panther, has sold more than 250,000 copies in a month, making it the bestselling comic in the US so far this year.
That's an enormous number.
American classrooms have had some form of children's books since the 17th century, but the books teachers have used, and the way they use them, have changed dramatically. For our Tools of the Trade series, we decided to go back to the beginning.
An illuminating retrospective of what we've considered "children's literature" over the last few centuries.
A decade after John Crowley, best known for Little, Big, first queried Small Beer Press about publishing a 400-year-old science fiction novel, his English-language version of Johannes Valentines Andreae's The Chemical Wedding (1616) is scheduled for this fall. The original book (Chymische Hochzeit Christiani Rosencreutz anno 1459) was written in German and set in the 1400s.
I would be interested in this even if Crowley weren't involved, but that he is makes me even more curious.

3 Failures in Background Checks in Denver's Jail System
October 13, 2014
Denver's year-old policy allowing for the disposal of pre-employment background checks in its jail system is garnering more attention for a system already under the microscope. An April 2013 policy allows for the destruction of pre-employment records in as little as three years after the employee is hired. This is only a year above the minimum set by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and far below the minimum recommended by Colorado municipal clerks and consultants. Keep reading to learn the three failures of background checks in Denver's jail system.
1. Inadequate Employee Record Retention
Many municipalities and businesses maintain policies requiring the retention of employee records not only during employment but also for a duration after termination. Retention of pre-employment background checks can be highly useful in lawsuits regarding negligent or discriminatory hiring practices. Keeping these records safe ensures that in the unfortunate event of legal action, all the information is readily available.
Denver's mistake: Not all records are readily available for investigators, making it appear as though the jail system has something to hide.
2. Improper Utilization of Background Check Information
Background checks are incredibly helpful in the hiring process but only if its information is properly utilized. They are especially important when hiring government employees, and specifically, law enforcement. The results of a criminal background check must be examined in detail, and the final decision must take all of the information into consideration. Many criminal records do not disqualify the candidate, depending on the job, but someone with indiscretions directly related to his/her desired position (like a jail guard with a firearms charge) should be carefully examined. Using care and scrutiny in the hiring process is essential for putting together a team that can represent an organization.
Denver's mistake: A number of pre-employment background checks in Denver's jail system have recently been investigated by local media, exposing multiple individuals on the payroll with criminal records. These same employees have, not surprisingly, been involved in some of the Denver jail system's scandals.
3. Lack of Action on Problem Individuals
Second chances are a core belief of many employers and background screening companies. If a candidate has somehow demonstrated a reconciliation with their past, and the organization has adequately assessed the risks, hiring an employee with a criminal record can lead to years of loyalty to that company. Applicable to both new hires and long-term employees, however, is the strict obligation of an organization to reassess an employee who puts others in danger, whether it's intentional or through negligence. The old rule is still true—a system is only as strong as its weakest link. This idea must be applied to an organization's ethical standards in the same degree to which it is applied to that organization's standards of efficiency.
Denver's mistake: The Denver Post's investigation has uncovered many incidents in which city employees violated the law and were permitted to remain in their positions.
The Consequences
In part, due to the city's mishandling of pre-employment background checks in the hiring process, Denver is in the midst of a troubling struggle with excessive force and civil rights violations, largely on the part of their law enforcement and jail workers. The Denver Post put a number to the city's lawsuit payout in this article from August:
They reported that since 2004, the city has paid out $16.7 million to settle legal claims, with 58 percent for cases involving accusations of excessive force or civil rights violations.
The latest case involved an inmate named Jamal Hunter who suffered multiple incidents of jail violence and has just settled with the city for $3.25 million. Part of the settlement also involves nondisclosure on the part of Hunter and his attorneys of the evidence that brought the case to a close. In another case, involving a man who died while being restrained in custody, the city of Denver refused to turn over records for years until finally delivering a huge and unwieldy trove on the day of trial.
In Conclusion
The hiring process, including a comprehensive employment background check, is the gateway into an organization. The more secure the gateway, the safer the inner workings of the organization. Smart interviewing tactics and pre-employment background screening can go a long way toward preventing difficulties down the road, both internally and within the legal system.

I have someone who wants a perfume tray like you keep on your vanity, with a mirror and make-up and little girly stuff. Does anyone have any ideas on the tray. I'll make all the little items with fondant and cake or rice krispies. Any suggestions are so much appreciated. Thanks in advance
Go to "galleries" when that comes up go to "search" type in "make up" and several pictures will come up.
If the tray doesn't have to be cake, you could make it out of a large cookie (sugar or choc. chip) shaped into an oval. You could ice it and then make the edge around it some scroll design out of royal or gumpaste (or something that could stand up to give the "tray" a little edge.) A cookie would be firmer and thinner than cake for the look of a tray. I hope that makes sense. It looks cute in my head.

I used hair extensions for my prom, they were really handy and the brand I got was called "Empire" I got it in a dark blonde. I got one pack and it was $89, not bad for hair extensions (human hair) they'll come in handy for your prom! :)00|00|0
What do you mean by affordable? And the price depends on what lengths you want. And do you want clip ins, wefts to sew/glue in or what?00|00|0

QBE international: England prop Alex Corbisiero out of New Zealand clash with knee injury
Alex Corbisiero, Marland Yarde and Christian Wade have been ruled out of Saturday's QBE international with New Zealand.
Last Updated: 12/11/13 7:50pm
Corbisiero's absence is a particular blow for England - Joe Marler is a slight doubt for Saturday and Mako Vunipola has already been ruled out of the Twickenham showdown.
If Harlequins' star Marler does not recover England will be down to their fourth choice loosehead and Wasps' Matt Mullan will win just his second cap against the mighty All Blacks.
Corbisiero, a hero of the British & Irish Lions series victory in Australia, faced a make-or-break training session on Tuesday afternoon and it was decided his problematic knee would not be ready in time for Saturday.
He missed the opening November international with Australia but did take part in the second-half against Argentina last weekend.
England head coach Stuart Lancaster said: "Alex took part in Tuesday morning's forwards training session but suffered some discomfort to his knee.
"He did not train on Tuesday afternoon and will not be available for selection for the weekend.
"It's disappointing for Alex having missed last year's Six Nations because of an injury to his other knee.
"With Mako also unavailable, it's a great opportunity for Joe Marler and Matt Mullan, who has been with us all week and is raring to go in the 23."
Marler was concussed in the 31-12 victory over the Pumas but England doctor Phil Batty is hopeful he will recover in time: "Joe Marler has had no symptoms of concussion since Saturday," he said.
"He has passed all his cognitive function (CogSport) tests and balance assessments and completed a skills session on Tuesday without any problems."
Yarde has failed to shake off a hip problem and Wade is ruled out by a tight hamstring so Chris Ashton - who has failed to shine so far this autumn - will win a reprieve on the right wing, continuing in what will be an unchanged backline.
"Marland Yarde and Christian Wade have not recovered in time to be available for this game," Lancaster said.
"We've had a good start to the week and now it's a case of tapering down the training and getting ourselves ready for the ultimate challenge.
"The Twickenham crowd has been great over the last two weeks and we know they will be just as vocal as they were against New Zealand last year."
Lancaster trimmed his squad to 23 players on Tuesday night with tighthead prop, where Dan Cole and David Wilson are competing, the only likely change to the starting XV.
England 23-man squad v New Zealand:
Forwards: D Cole (Leicester), D Hartley (Northampton), J Launchbury (Wasps), C Lawes (Northampton), J Marler (Harlequins), B Morgan (Gloucester), M Mullan (Wasps), G Parling (Leicester), C Robshaw (Harlequins), B Vunipola (Saracens), D Wilson (Bath), T Wood (Northampton), T Youngs (Leicester).
Backs: C Ashton (Saracens), M Brown (Harlequins), L Dickson (Northampton), O Farrell (Saracens), T Flood (Leicester), B Foden (Northampton), A Goode (Saracens), J Tomkins (Saracens), B Twelvetrees (Gloucester), B Youngs (Leicester).
Watch England take on the All Blacks on Sky Sports 1 on Saturday, with coverage beginning at 1.30pm.

An Evaluation Taxonomy For Congestion Pricing
In this paper, the authors formulate an evaluation taxonomy to identify a broad range of factors that would be important for a comprehensive assessment of congestion pricing. The evaluation taxonomy consists of three dimensions: road pricing strategies, impacted groups and impacts. The paper also includes a literature review of previous research in road pricing, especially regarding modeling tools and methods for conducting evaluation.

These days, when you arrive early for a movie, you get to watch an ad-supported video that previews what's ahead in the world of music, television and video games. Now, if Virgin founder Richard Branson has his way, while waiting for the lights to go down in the theater, you might find yourself in the midst of a video game battle with your fellow theater-goers played out on your phone. This weekend, Branson is rumored to be testing out this ad-supported game which would be downloaded onto a smartphone as an app. Studio and advertising executives are supposed to be in attendance at a pair of demos with one in L.A. today and one in New York on Sunday. The test on Sunday is supposedly bringing in 18 VIPs including ones from Coca-Cola and Sony, who will enjoy a catered breakfast. Must be nice.
tournament style gaming where players around the world could compete for prizes. We're not sure if this new app would tie in with that, but if movie patrons have a chance to win huge sums of cash, we could see more people going to the theater. Branson's U.S. spokesman denied that any such testing was going on, but we think he just was upset at not being invited to the breakfast.
The game would allow up to 50 people to play at one time. We could see this being limited to weekend or evening showings. Even so, when you consider the number of possible games that could be played in the course of one weekend in the U.S. alone, this idea could generate millions of dollars of ad dollars for Virgin.

Virgin's Branson to show off a multi-player smartphone game for early-arriving movie patrons

The end of a relationship isn't always nightmarish. Some of the most poignant and moving words can be exchanged when people break up, too. There's a reason we never forget the words to a moving love song (basically any Adele track) or poem – we've all been there at one point or another, so such words resonate very deeply. Now a unique Tumbler project is attempting to lift the lid on heartbreak, and it makes for an interesting and often emotional read.
Titled The Last Message Received, the viral project shows the final texts lovers exchange at the end of relationships, as well as messages from former friends and those who passed away.
Some are overly sentimental, such as the flourishing sign off from one ex that declares: "The most colourful sunset and highest snow capped mountains can't begin to compare to you."
Others are depressingly perfunctory: "Yeah, good luck with uni and all that." Certain words are downright horrid: "I just can't be seen with someone who looks like you do. No offence lol." Surely we aren't the only people appalled by that message?
And some are just very, very sad.
"We were the ultimate fairytale. Never fought, never hurt each other, always hand in hand. One day he just changed and walked out of my life. He married someone he just met, after knowing each other for a week. These were our last words, before I was to never hear from him again. I still love him and will wait forever, for The One."
The Tumblr was launched by Emily Trunko, a 15-year-old student from Ohio. "I've always been fascinated with glimpses into the lives of other people," Trunko told BuzzFeed. "I thought that the last message sent before a breakup or before someone passed away would be really poignant."
And a few of the most heartbreaking posts show the last conversation shared between friends before one of them dies.
"I feel sad," one person texted to a friend. They explain in the accompanying note that, "At around 11 pm that night, I felt a wave of sadness wash over me out of nowhere. I highly suspect this was when he died."
And even the shorter posts are moving:
In a world where texting is the main form of communication for so many people, unfinished conversations can be all too common. Trunko added that since creating the project, she's become more conscious of her own text messages. "Every message I send to them could be the last one I ever exchange," she said. "And every message I receive could be the last one I receive." The posts have struck a chord with many since they appeared online.
You can read many more posts on the Tumbler page here.
What do you make of the project?
