DESCRIPTION: Macau, a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China (PRC) since December 20, 1999, has a high degree of autonomy, except in the areas of defense and foreign policy. Macau retains its own currency, laws, and border controls. With a population of approximately 544,600, Macau covers a 29.5 square-kilometer area including the peninsula of Macau, which is connected to the PRC, and the two islands of Taipa and Coloane. Gambling and tourism are the largest sectors in Macau's economy. Facilities for tourism are well developed. See the Department of State Background Notes on Macau for additional information.
SMART TRAVELER ENROLLMENT PROGRAM (STEP) / EMBASSY LOCATION: If you are going to live or visit Macau, please take the time to tell our Consulate about your trip. If you enroll, we can keep you up to date with important safety and security announcements. It will also help your friends and family get in touch with you in an emergency. Here's the link to the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program.
Local consulate and embassy information is available below and at the Department of State's list of embassies and consulates. There is no U.S. diplomatic or consular presence in Macau. The U.S. Consulate General in Hong Kong provides consular assistance to U.S. citizens in Macau.

ENTRY / EXIT REQUIREMENTS FOR U.S. CITIZENS: Your passport must be valid for at least 30 days beyond your intended period of stay in Macau. If you are a tourist, you may visit for up to 30 days without a visa. According to the Macau Immigration Department, if you depart and then immediately reenter Macau, when you reenter, you should expect that you will be given fewer than 30 days to remain in Macau.
Because many neighboring areas require that your passport has six months validity remaining, if you are planning to travel in these areas, be sure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond the date of your planned travel. If you hold a Hong Kong Permanent Identity Card or a Hong Kong Re-entry Permit, you may use either document to enter Macau for a maximum stay of up to one year. You must present your passport or other valid travel document upon arrival. Visit the Macau Government Tourist Office website for the most current visa information.
You should obtain all required visas prior to departing the United States. Specifically, you must have a PRC visa if you plan to travel to the PRC from Macau. You should apply for the PRC visa at the PRC embassy or consulate where you reside. In some cases you can get a PRC visa at the PRC Visa Office in Macau; however, there are limitations depending on the visa category. For example, the visa may be issued for a shorter length of validity and for fewer entries than one obtained in the United States. If you are the parent of a child who holds a U.S. passport, be aware that the PRC Visa Office may require an original birth certificate or other documentation for your child. Persons applying in Macau for PRC visas for their U.S.-born children have been unable to obtain PRC visas without the children's U.S. birth certificate. Further information on travel to and around the PRC is available in the China Country-Specific Information Sheet.
The U.S. Department of State is unaware of any HIV/AIDS entry restrictions for visitors to or foreign residents of Macau.
You can find information about dual nationality or the prevention of international child abduction on our website. For further information about customs regulations, please read our Customs Information page.
Stay up to date by:
CRIME: Petty street crime, including pick-pocketing, occasionally occurs in tourist areas in Macau, including in and around casinos and at the airport. You should protect your personal belongings and travel documents at all times.
Don't buy counterfeit and pirated goods, even if they are widely available. Not only are the bootlegs illegal in the United States, if you purchase them, you may also be breaking local law.
VICTIMS OF CRIME: If you or someone you know becomes the victim of a crime abroad, you should contact the local police and the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. We can:
While the Macau government does not have an office devoted solely to crime victim assistance, the social welfare department offers support to crime victims. The support includes monetary benefits, health care, psychological services, and counseling. These are available at the local Social Service Centers. You will find more resources for victims of crime in Macau in our Help for U.S. Victims of Crime in Macau information sheet. In addition, the Macau Tourism Crisis Management Office emaintains a tourism hotline (Tel: 853-2833-3000, for visitors to Macau who encounter emergency situations.
The local equivalent to the "911" emergency line in Macau is 999.
Please see our information on victims of crime, including possible victim compensation programs in the United States.
CRIMINAL PENALTIES: While you are traveling in Macau, you are subject to its laws even if you are a U.S. citizen. Foreign laws and legal systems can be vastly different than our own. In some places you may be taken in for questioning if you don't have your passport with you. In some places, it is illegal to take pictures of certain buildings. In some places driving under the influence could land you immediately in jail. These criminal penalties will vary from country to country. There are also some things that might be legal in the country you visit, but still illegal in the United States, and you can be prosecuted under U.S. law if you buy pirated goods.Engaging in sexual conduct with children or using or disseminating child pornography in a foreign country is a crime prosecutable in the United States. If you break local laws in Macau, your U.S. passport won't help you avoid arrest or prosecution. It's very important to know what's legal and what's not where you are going.
If you violate Macau's laws, even unknowingly, you may be expelled, arrested, or imprisoned. Penalties for possession of, use of, or trafficking in illegal drugs in Macau are severe, and if you are convicted of these offenses, you can expect long jail sentences and heavy fines.
Arrest notifications in host country: While some countries will automatically notify the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate if a U.S. citizen is detained or arrested in a foreign country, that might not always be the case in Macau. To ensure that the United States is aware of your circumstances, request that the police and prison officials notify the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate as soon as you are arrested or detained overseas.
Currency: There are no currency restrictions for tourists in Macau. Although the pataca is the official currency in Macau, Hong Kong
currency is commonly used and widely accepted in transactions, especially in tourist areas. If you are visiting Macau from
Hong Kong, you may wish to bring sufficient Hong Kong dollars to cover your expenses. Credit cards and ATM network debit cards
are widely accepted in Macau. Banks and major hotels accept traveler's checks.
Customs Regulations: Macau customs authorities may enforce strict regulations concerning temporary importation into or export from Macau of items such as firearms, ivory, certain categories of medications, and other goods. Please see the Macau Customs Service website for further information.
You should know that the importation into the United States of counterfeit brand-name items, such as watches, compact discs, computer software, and clothing, is prohibited by U.S. law.
Please see our Customs Information sheet.
Dual Nationality: According to the PRC nationality law, persons of Chinese descent who were born in the PRC, including Macau, are PRC citizens. However, under an agreement between the United States and the People's Republic of China, all U.S. citizens entering Macau on their U.S. passports, including such persons as may be considered PRC nationals by the PRC authorities, are considered to be U.S. citizens by the Macau SAR authorities for purposes of ensuring U.S. consular access and protection during their initial legal stay of up to 30 days in Macau.
If you are a dual national contemplating onward travel into mainland China, you should strongly consider which passport you will use to enter and exit China. Under the U.S. – PRC Consular Convention, the U.S. Embassy and consulates general in the PRC are not able to provide you with consular protections ifyou do not use your U.S. passport to enter or exit China.
In addition to being subject to all Macau SAR laws affecting U.S. citizens, dual nationals may be subject to laws of Macau that impose special obligations on Macau citizens. For further information on consular protection and dual nationality, please refer to our information on dual nationality.
Language: The official languages in the Macau SAR are Chinese (Cantonese) and Portuguese; however, English is spoken in tourist areas.
Typhoons: During the storm season (July through September), the Macau Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau issues typhoon warnings on an average of six times a year. The Bureau has a good notification and monitoring system. Please consult the Macau Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau for further information. General information about natural disaster preparedness is from the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
ACCESSIBILITY: While in Macau, individuals with disabilities may find accessibility and accommodation very different from what you find in the United States. The People's Republic of China, including the Special Administrative Region of Macau, is signatory to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Macau law prohibits discrimination against persons with physical, sensory, intellectual, and mental disabilities in employment, education, access to health care, or the provision of other state services, and the government generally enforces these provisions. The law mandates access to public buildings, usually in the form of a ramp, for persons with physical disabilities. Cross-walks are also required in Macau, and they generally include audible signals for hearing-impaired and raised-treading for visually-impaired pedestrians. Handicap accessible parking is mandated in publically owned parking lots. The Social Welfare Bureau is primarily responsible for coordinating and funding public assistance programs to persons with disabilities.
In general, the historic part of Macau is hilly and the pavement uneven, but the newer parts, particularly around the CoTai strip, are flat, and the streets and sidewalks are wide. The airport is accessible, and the ferries from Hong Kong to Macau are accessible with assistance from the staff. Major hotels and casinos, taxis, and public transportation offer widely available shuttle buses, but none is equipped with special equipment to accommodate the physically disabled. For Macau residents who are mobility impaired, the Social Welfare Bureau offers free transportation to medical appointments by accessible van through their Rehabilitation Bus Service. Accessible van rental and Macau tours for the mobility impaired are available through Macau Barrier Free Tourism (tel. 853 2840 3315 or 853 6289 6796, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Website in Chinese only).
MEDICAL FACILITIES AND HEALTH INFORMATION: Several major hospitals in Macau have adequate medical facilities, and Kiang Wu and Conde de Sao Januario hospitals are able to provide emergency medical care. The U.S. Consulate General Hong Kong maintains a list of medical providers in Macau on the consulate website. Highly developed medical facilities and trained personnel are available in Hong Kong, which is about an hour by jetfoil and 10 minutes by helicopter from Macau.
You can find good information on vaccinations and other health precautions, on the CDC website. For information about outbreaks of infectious diseases abroad, consult the World Health Organization (WHO) website. The WHO website also contains additional health information for travelers, including detailed country-specific health information.
MEDICAL INSURANCE: You can't assume your insurance will go with you when you travel. It's very important to find out BEFORE you leave whether your medical insurance will cover you overseas. You need to ask your insurance company two questions:
In many places, doctors and hospitals still expect payment in cash at the time of service. Your regular U.S. health insurance may not cover doctors' and hospital visits in other countries. If your policy doesn't go with you when you travel, it's a very good idea to take out another one for your trip. For more information, please see our medical insurance overseas page.
TRAFFIC SAFETY AND ROAD CONDITIONS: While in Macau, you may encounter road conditions that differ significantly from those in the United States. The information below concerning Macau is provided for general reference only, and may not be totally accurate in a particular location or circumstance.
Traffic moves on the left in Macau, and roads are narrow and winding. Traffic is generally congested throughout the day. Most visitors to Macau choose not to drive. Taxis are inexpensive and plentiful at the airport, ferry terminal, and gaming venues. Public buses are also inexpensive and frequent, but you may have difficulty finding them outside major tourist areas.
For specific information concerning Macau driving permits, vehicle inspection, road tax, and mandatory insurance, email the Public Security Police Force, or contact them by telephone (853) 2837 4214 or fax (853) 2852 3407 or the Macau Transport Department, 762-804 Avenida da Praia Grande, China Plaza Bldg., 2nd floor; telephone (853) 8866-6363; fax (853) 2875 0626. (Please note: This website is available only in Chinese and Portuguese).
Please refer to our Road Safety page for more information. Also, we suggest that you visit the web site of Macau's official tourist office.
AVIATION SAFETY OVERSIGHT: As there is no direct commercial air service to the United States by carriers registered in Macau, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not assessed the government of Macau's Civil Aviation Authority for compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) aviation safety standards. Further information may be found on the FAA's safety assessment page.
CHILDREN'S ISSUES: Please see our Office of Children's Issues web pages on intercountry adoption and international parental child abduction.

Antinori has produced Chianti Classico, one of the most widely known wines in the world, for centuries. This particular wine was introduced in 1928 by Niccolò, Piero Antinori's father, as the first Chianti produced specifically to improve with age. Villa Antinori Riserva, which has become the bench-mark for Chianti Classico Riserva, is only produced in good vintage years. The wine's label, which had remained unchanged since 1928, was slightly restyled with the 1990 vintage.
Intense ruby red colour. Fruity hints on the nose blend well with the toasty, chocolate and vanilla notes from ageing in wood. A complex, harmonious and well-structured wine with smooth tannins and persistant fruity hints.
The Antinori family of Florence, one of the world's oldest and most distinguished wine producers, has lived in Tuscany since the 14th century and celebrated its 625th anniversary as wine makers in 2010. The current company president, Marchese Piero Antinori, believes in the tradition that the primary role of wine is to accompany food and enhance the dining experience. In Florence, the Antinori family has led a "Renaissance" in Italian wine making by combining long traditions, a love of authenticity and a dynamic innovative spirit.

French Humanitarian Actors
Establishing an exhaustive list of French emergency humanitarian actors is a challenge, because of their diversity as well as the well-known difficulty of determining where to draw the distinction between emergency and post-emergency.
The listing established on this site is an initial approach that deserves to be refined and expanded gradually. It distinguishes between state services and organizations involved in international solidarity - traditional actors - local governments and businesses - increasingly prevalent - and research centers.
Universities, which provide specific courses oriented towards humanitarian action, have been perceived more as related to training than the action itself.

"Hello, if you're recieving this message, you're a mutant. Do not worry though, the government has established several planets for you to say on due to the nature of your body, this is not a disease, it is apart of you. However, mutation do lend themselves to other diseases, and many metaphobias (people who are scared of mutants) will react with violence. For your own protection, you will be moved to a nice mutant housing planet called Kappa, where if you are under aged, you will leave in a house with other mutants and go to school three days a week, and have regular doctors appointments, the minimum is once a month, but if needed it can be more. We prefer you not resist, it only makes it harder on yourself, and this, again, is for you. Many mutants who refuse medical treatment die or lose theirs minds and hurt others, we just wish to prevent this" a letter addressed to you, or your parents reads. Another note exampled in detail, "People under the age of 19 will leave in houses under another mutants authority, who argued to be the guardian of several mutants; these houses are very large and made to suit five people, most houses have any where from two to four. You will go to school three days a week, instead of five due to the complication that mutants cause. Whenever you become of age, you will be allowed to become the head of your own house, or live alone in a much smaller but still roomy house, and do some work to earn money."
So, what this is a Science Fiction roleplay, in an unstated year in time. You are a mutant, or a person working on the MALaM (Mutant Assisted Living and Medical) Planet. The age range will be 12 up, no immune human ages. I want to make myself clear on this, you're a mutant, not a wizard. You can be a psychic, a part human part animal, a shape-shifter, a person able to produce energy, and so long as a mutantion in your brain or body causes your ability it is fine. There isn't going to be weather manipulation, I will consider teleporting. However, your power doesn't have to be scientifically accurate, it just has have a slimmer of science in there. As for workers on the MaLaM, that could range from doctors, to guards, to shrinks, just any job that you think will need to be filled.
Any takers, any suggestions, comments, insults, criticisms, whatever?

Leader: There is no good reason for our troops to remain in Afghanistan
The longer we stay in Afghanistan, the worse things will become.
By NS staff writer Published 15 March 2012The murder of 16 Afghan civilians by a rogue US soldier, in a house-to-house rampage across two villages just 500 metres from a US base in Kandahar Province, has led to much soul-searching. The dead included nine children and three women. A Pentagon spokesman described the 11 March shootings as a deplorable but "isolated" incident. They were not. In 2010, a group of US soldiers killed three Afghan civilians "for sport" and posed for pictures with the corpses; in January this year, a video emerged of US marines urinating on the bodies of dead Afghans.
We cannot ignore such crimes. On page 11, Frank Ledwidge, a former military intelligence officer and author of the acclaimed book Losing Small Wars, argues that the soldier accused in the most recent case "must take personal responsibility for his actions". The rest of us, he adds, "must reflect on our own willingness to send young men and women into wars such as this, time after time".
Why are we still in Afghanistan? Does anyone believe in the cause? The inconvenient truth is that most al-Qaeda fighters fled Afghanistan for the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province in Pakistan long ago. US officials estimate that there are fewer than 100 al-Qaeda fighters left inside Afghanistan; the Pentagon has conceded that the last time US troops killed an al-Qaeda fighter in the country was in April 2011.
Whether or not the US-led invasion of Afghanistan was justified following the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 is irrelevant now; few imagined Nato forces would still be fighting the Taliban more than a decade later in an intractable conflict that has dragged on twice as long as the Second World War.
The New Statesman has repeatedly called for a full withdrawal of British forces from the killing fields of Helmand. In August 2009, in a leader, we called on the previous Labour government to "set a date for withdrawal from Afghanistan. Our military presence is part of the problem, not the solution." We pointed out then that our heavy-handed military presence had become a recruiting sergeant, both for the anti-infidel Taliban insurgency and for al-Qaeda sympathisers in the UK. Since then, 208 British troops have died in Afghanistan, the killing of six soldiers in a roadside explosion on 6 March taking the death toll to 404 - more than twice as many as were killed in Iraq.
What of the blighted civilians of Afghanistan, so often forgotten? Tens of thousands of innocent Afghans have been killed since 2001; a recent UN study claimed that the number of civilian casualties had risen for the fifth year in a row.
Our Afghan misadventure has been a humanitarian and political disaster. And yet, writing in a joint editorial in the Washington Post of 13 March to coincide with David Cameron's visit to the US, the Prime Minister and President Barack Obama said that Afghanistan "remains a difficult mission. We honour the profound sacrifices of our forces, and in their name we'll carry on the mission."
This is wilful blindness. Soldiers will continue to kill and be killed; the UK's humiliating pull-out is merely being postponed. The year 2014 has been agreed as an end date for military operations but, as the Conservative MP Rory Stewart, one of the west's shrewdest observers of Afghanistan, wrote in the London Evening Standard on 12 March: "It is only a deadline: we are not obliged to stay till the last day."
The western allies could once have negotiated with the Taliban from a position of strength. That time is long past. The violence and bloodshed will continue, whether we stay or go. However, as Stewart wrote: "The longer we stay, the worse things will become."

Cameron will never withdraw from Afghanistan because Obama won't allow it. Maintaining the illusion of a "united front" is way more important than doing the right thing.
Obama has now signed an agreement to stay there for another twelve years. NATO countries keep saying a key part of "The Mission" is training. How long have the Afghan "security forces" been training? Over ten years now. Yet, they'll need "more time"? If a commanding officer told Cameron new recruits would need ten years of training, they'd be laughed out of the military. However, because it's Afghanistan, it's okay?
The only reason the US is staying there is because China (who funds the US govt.) is allowing it. If they dump their US debt, the war's over. Whether Obama likes it or not.
Nobody is single completing her essay just because essay writing organizations offer to get information where to buy essays.
If you have no thoughts how to compose your essay, you should buy college papers online.
Operation Scuttle should sort things out. Didn't it work real well in Korea, 'Nam and Iraq?
Remember, this is a tactical retreat not a surrender!
If this keeps up the West will have to do the unthinkable and use nuclear weapons.
Now that's what we call suicide bombing!
Fred ( Benny Hill )
The NS article asserts that "Tens of thousands of innocent Afghans have been killed since 2001" but it is estimated 4.2 million Afghans who have died from war-imposed deprivation under US Occupation, about 2.6 million of these war-related avoidable deaths being of under-5 . year old infants. The racist, war criminal US military does not report the number of civilians it kills but based on Iraq War comparisons (1.5 million violent deaths since 2003 according to US Just Foreign Policy: http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/ ) one can estimate 1.4 million violent deaths in US-occupied Afghanistan for a total of 5.6 million post-invasion war-related deaths, a death toll comparable with that of the WW2 Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million, 1 in 6 dying from deprivation) (see Afghan Holocaust, Afghan Genocide": https://sites.google.com/site/afghanholocaustafghangenocide/ ).
The estimate from UN Population Division data of 2.6 million avoidable under-5 infant deaths in US Alliance-occupied Afghanistan (UNICEF indicated about 0.2 million under-5 infant deaths in Occupied Afghanistan an each year: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/afghanistan_statistics.html ) points to an immense war crime by the US Alliance Occupiers in gross violation of the Geneva Convention.
Thus Articles 55 and 56 of the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War demand unequivocally that an Occupier must provide its conquered subjects with life-sustaining food and medical supplies "to the fullest extent of the means available to it " (see: http://www.icrc.org/ihl.nsf/full/380 ). However the World Health Organization (WHO) informs that 'annual per capita total health expenditure" permitted by the US Alliance Occupiers in Afghanistan is a mere US$69 as compared to US$7,410 for the US (see: http://www.who.int/countries/en/ ). Bush, Obama, Blair,m Brown, Cameron, Sarkozy, Merkel, Harper, Howard, Rudd, Gillard and their associates should be arraigned before the International Criminal Court.
However it is not just Afghan children being killed by the Afghan War. It is estimated that 1 million people have died globally since 2001 due to US Alliance restoration of the Taliban-destroyed Afghan opium industry to 90% of world market share (this carnage including 200,000 Americans, 18,000 British and 3,700 Australians) (for details and documentation see see Afghan Holocaust, Afghan Genocide": https://sites.google.com/site/afghanholocaustafghangenocide/ ).
The Neocon American and Zionist Imperialist (NAZI)-beholden Anglo-Americans responsible for this carnage of their fellow citizens should be brought to account via the ballot box and the judicial system. Indeed itc an be estimated that 1 million Americans and 66,000 Australians die preventably each year due to warped , pro-war, pro-Zionist, NAZI-promoted fiscal priorities involving killing millions of Muslim abroad rather than keeping their fellow citizens alive at home (see: http://bellaciao.org/en/spip.php?article21696 and http://www.countercurrents.org/polya210212.htm ) .
The war has never been about terrorism or humanitarianism - as nearly all western commentators would apparently like us to believe. It is about the global dominance of official American values (if 'values' is an appropriate word to descibe the greed, arrogance and selfish individualism that underpins our dominant political creed, neoliberalism.
The wars against Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya served no interest but capitalism's, did not 'save lives' but killed more people, brought not democracy but disaster, disorder, widespread use of torture, warring tribes, break-up of the country, and foreign exploitation, to those countries. These wars have cost an estimated $3 trillion, have raised oil prices and cut incomes, jobs and GDP.
Likewise, war against Syria or Iran would serve no interest but capitalism's, would not 'save lives' but would kill more people, would bring not democracy but disaster, disorder, widespread use of torture, warring tribes, break-up of the country and foreign exploitation. War on Syria or Iran would raise oil prices yet more and cut incomes, jobs and GDP.
All this self-righteous do-gooding does not actually do any good.
Yet the internet is full of 'humanitarian' bodies, activists and celebrities (including the blessed Stephen Fry) howling for war on Syria.
US troops in Afghanistan seem to be fighting terrorism by desecrating bodies, burning books and massacring women and children. Pulling British and American troops out of Afghanistan could reduce the threat of terrorism in the West, said the International Institute for Strategic Studies recently. It said that a less visible security presence in the region could reduce extremist attacks.

Glessner House exhibits
The historic Prairie Avenue manse gives you a reason to drop by for a quick visit.
Published: June 8, 2011
By-tour-only Glessner House Museum—the Prairie Avenue historic house museum—gives you a reason to drop by for a quick half hour. In its cozy visitor center, it opened two small exhibits; one gives a preface on the Romanesque-revival architect H.H. Richardson, and the other explores architecture books owned by the Glessner family, who commissioned the fortress-like house and its beautiful garden. Both provide worthwhile (free!) information for passersby looking to duck in without committing to a tour.

MECHANICVILLE - There were very few dry eyes when the casket carrying Anthony Deniere arrived at Albany International airport Monday morning.
The 26-year-old Marine was killed by enemy fire in Afghanistan last week.
His hometown of Mechanicville gathered to honor the fallen hero and show support to his surviving family.
There are few sights more moving than a flag draped coffin arriving home
The one carrying the remains of Anthony Deniere was welcomed by family, friends and countless strangers.
The Lance Corporal's brothers in battle acted as escort to their fallen friend.
The procession was led by motorcyclists from the Patriot Guard.
Hundreds of supporters--waving flags and wearing yellow ribbons--lined the 15 mile route from the airport to Deniere's home town of Mechanicville.
"I feel it's important to let the family know we appreciate the sacrifice," said Rebecca Southard-Krieger of Averill Park
An enormous flag flew above the sea of red standing outside the Deniere's Alma Mater, Mechanicville High School where young and old gathered together to honor a life lost too early.
Monday's procession ended, appropriately at the American Legion. Its parking lot and sidewalk were packed. For Ted Kleniewski from Mechanicville, Deniere's death hits close to home in more ways than one. His 21-year-old is also a Marine:
"I feel as if he's my own son," he said.
An entire community is hurting, but no one more than Mary Morgan, the mom who will bury her 26-year-old child on Tuesday.
"This is the most painful impact of war. To witness this loss is very heart wrenching and you can't help but to feel so deeply," said Rep. Paul Tonko

Posted: Jan 28, 2013 5:04 PM by The Associated Press
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Police say a doctor has been shot and killed in a doctor's office in a Southern California medical building and a man is in police custody.
Newport Beach police spokeswoman Kathy Lowe says police received a report at about 2:45 p.m. Monday of six or seven shots fired at the medical office near Hoag Hospital.
Lowe says officers responding found a man dead from multiple gunshot wounds to the upper torso in a patient examination room. They found the suspect in the same room and took him into custody.
Deputy Chief David McGill tells the Los Angeles Times that the victim was a doctor. His name and relationship to the gunman were not immediately clear.
Lowe says no one else was injured and it appears to be an isolated incident.

Faster Penalty Turns
Faster Penalty Turns
Completing your penalty turns quickly and efficiently allows you to get back to racing that much sooner, perhaps even salvaging your position in the fleet. "Technique" from our November/December 2010 issue.
What I learned while sailing in college is that, if you're going upwind, start your penalty circles by tacking first, and if you're going downwind, start your penalty turns with a jibe. Years later, this rule of thumb is still the first thing to know about executing the fastest penalty turns. There are two reasons for doing so: 1. You accelerate out of a down-speed jibe more quickly than out of a down-speed tack. 2. You don't sail any more distance away from the next mark than necessary. Different boats require certain mechanics to sail most efficiently through the turns, but the following guide should serve as a good starting point. Here's how the basics of a faster penalty turn break down.
Upwind penalty turns
Why would you start your windward-leg turns with a tack? If you're sailing upwind at full speed and bear away, essentially you're sailing very quickly downwind, in the opposite direction of where you want to go. Tink of a windward mark where one boat tacks and then bears away while another boat just does a bear-away set. Afer a few seconds, the boat that does a bear-away is always further ahead, further downwind, which is the opposite direction you're trying to go, if you are on a beat.
If you start your circles with a tack, your tack will be at full speed. Coming out of that tack, your boatspeed will be less than if you bore away, which means you won't be sailing downwind as far before you jibe. For example, if you were in a Melges 32, sailing in 12 knots of wind, and simply bore away, you would be going downwind at 9 knots. But if you tacked first, then bore away, your speed downwind before the jibe would be 5 to 5.5 knots. Once you jibe, you can do a powerful turn up with speed, accelerate for 2 to 3 seconds, and then start your second circle with a tack (see the diagram above). It's important to understand what the rules say about penalty turns. The turns must be started "promptly" in the same direction, but don't necessarily need to be in a continuous motion. In other words, you don't need to roll right into your second turn immediately after the first. I typically do one turn, accelerate briefly—one to two boatlengths, not 10—then start my second circle. This enables the boat to get back to speed before driving it through the next circle. A lot of this depends on wind velocity and the boat. In a dinghy, you can often spin within the length of the boat. Use your body weight to steer, coupled with rapid easing and trimming the sails.
On bigger boats, the key to efficiently completing an upwind penalty is communication, since they rely so heavily on sail trim to maneuver the boat through the turns. If the boat is turned before the main and headsail sheets are cleared and ready to go, you're never going to make efficient circles. And once the crew is ready, it's important that you have one person calling the trim: "Main in, jib out," "Jib in, main out." The reason for this is that many boats suffer from "heads-down" boat handling— grinders focusing on their winches as they grind and trimmers watching the sheet around the winch to prevent overrides. As a result, they may not be able to coordinate sail trim to facilitate the turns. The person calling the trim needs to follow two simple rules: To get the boat to bear off, backwind or over-trim the headsail while under-trimming the main. Make sure the vang is eased. Do the opposite to head up—over-trim the main and under-trim the headsail. If you have a non-overlapping jib, keep the jib trimmed on the tack you were on before beginning the circles. Ten, leave the sail on that side of the boat, backed but eased slightly, for your turn down and the ensuing jibe. Once again, the jib will be on the correct side, but it must be eased as you turn through the jibe so it doesn't work against the turn as the boat heads up. The key to mainsail trim is rapid and extreme easing and trimming— it will be either all the way out or all the way in (see diagram at right). For easing, you can even go as far as dropping the mainsheet—just letting it run.
It's important on a big boat to think about where people go. For instance, the jib trimmer is going to need someone to grind for him. On a boat like a Farr 40, where you have two mainsheet winches, put grinders on both winches. The trimmer then pulls the sheet on one side, and someone is grinding on both sides. When the command to trim is made, both winches are turning, but only one person does the easing. It's the same setup you would use in pre-start maneuvers.
