BALTIMORE (AP) — A federal jury has ordered the former Baltimore police officer who was convicted of assaulting a 14-year-old handcuffed to a hospital gurney to pay the teen's family $100,000.
The Baltimore Sun reports a jury returned the verdict of the civil complaint against Duane Williams Jr. on Tuesday. Williams was already convicted of assault and misconduct in 2016 and sentenced to one year of home detention.
The complaint filed by the boy's mother, Latoya Coner, accuses Williams of beating the teen 10 to 15 times, causing him to lose hearing in his left ear.
A Department of Justice investigation says the teen was at a Baltimore hospital in 2015 for a mental health evaluation when Williams beat him.
Two other officers received probation for denying and not reporting the beating.

Arrests made in Accomack arson: Sheriff


A bad oil filter can cause several troubles and each of them could lead to severe engine damage which happens to be very costly to repair. Although a blocked or damaged Nissan Altima oil filter often stops working without leaving a hint, you can look at certain telltale warning signs indicating when it is already moment for you to replace your stock component.
When the engine frequently overheats or you observe oil leaking and the check engine light switches on, these are signs that there could possibly be a problem with the oil filter. Nissan Altima oil filters are designed with a basic safety function that allows even unfiltered oil to go into the engine since it is still more advantageous than having no oil at all for engine lubrication. You shouldn't allow your engine to be lubricated with contaminated oil for some time because sediments may stack up in the parts of the engine and heat transfer may be obstructed by build up of mineral, so overheating happens. For longer engine life, it is important to replace the oil filter in your Nissan Altima in the right intervals, and that is every 3 months or after every 3,000 miles. To avoid early plugging up and damage on your oil filter, it is advisable to make use of the precise weight motor oil given by the company; this data are found in the vehicle owner's manual.
Vehicle owners who are searching for a brand new Nissan Altima oil filter yet seeking a low price guarantee can go through Parts Train's wide variety of choices. Aside from products that are sourced from famous companies, like Motorcraft, Crosland, and K&N, you can also post your order here by calling us toll free anytime of the day.

When Albany Was Crazy for Horse Racing: The Speedway – Hurstville – Island Park – Woodlawn Park
October 23, 2019 September 28, 2021 albanymuskratLeave a comment
Albany was horse racing mad in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Around the time of the Civil War racing became hugely popular (it was at the same time the Saratoga Racetrack was established) in the north and continued for decades.
The Speedway
There had always been racing at county and town fairs. But by the 1870s racing came into the city. Both Western and Washington Avenues, beginning about Quail St. and west were referred to as "The Speedway" for horse drawn sleigh racing on the weekends in the winter. (There was a Speedway Hotel on the corner of Manning Blvd., the Klondike Hotel on the corner of North Allen and the Western Turnpike, and Carrick's Hotel was on the corner of Madison Ave and West Lawrence.) In the summer there were trotter and pacers.
The Hurstville Track
But there was competition. The Hurstville race track (about where Mater Christi Church and school are today) was established in the mid-1860s. It was mostly a trotting track. Around it a picnic grove called "Pleasure Park" developed (the county fair was held at the location – then town of Bethlehem – in the 1870s.) The track was leased to the Island Park Association (a racing corporation) in the 1870s and early 1880s which improved the track and provided amenities; it ran mostly matinee races and weekend races in the summer. Racing continued until about 1900.
There was also a hotel close to the Park, on the corner of Krumkill Rd. and New Scotland Ave. It dated back to at least the 1840s, known then as the Log Tavern, then Tanner's Hotel and later Hurst's Hotel. It became a notorious "love nest" for politician's trysts over the city line in the 1920s.
But Island Park was the Big Daddy of all local race tracks. Island Park was established in the late 1860s in Menands (now part of Colonie – then the town of Watervliet) on Breaker Island (which puts it wee bit south Port Schuyler). The track was on the east side of the Champlain Canal and sandwiched between the Canal and the River. It had larger purses, better horses and could be reached by horsecars from Albany, but the meets were shorter – usually no more than 3-5 days in – perhaps 3-4 meets a year. Still it drew great horses – like "American Girl", the most well-known trotter of the late 1860s and early 1870s.
Slowly the track improved. In the late 1870s a railroad bridge was installed – now horses could be shipped in from all over – they came from as far west as St. Louis and as far south as Kentucky.
In 1884 the Association came under the control of Erastus Corning, multi-millionaire local mogul and other very rich heavy hitters * who had a thing for racing – yes, but saw the corporation as a way to make money too. Or in track parlance.. an exacta.
Although pacers were raced it was primarily a trotting park. Island Park became part of the National Trotting Association and its meets became well- known as part of the national Grand Circuit for trotters. There were meets in the summer and fall with annual purses worth about $40,000. Two large hotels were built, Union Hotel and McDonald's Hotel – the latter owned by the famed driver Alta McDonald. The stables could house as many as 300-400 horses. Island Park thrived. The Association made sure the new electric trolley ran to the track from all parts of the Capital District. Some of the best horses in the nation raced there, including "Major Delmar" said to be the fastest gelding alive in 1905. And then it all came to an end. We're told that the racing stopped pretty much by 1909. The land was purchased by the D&H Railroad.
Woodlawn Park
But never fear – Albany men DO love their horse racing. So a group of local men formed the Albany Driving Association in the early 1900s, bought a tract of land about where Albany Academy is today from a man named Wood and called the race track Woodlawn. There was racing for about 10 years, until about 1914. But the Association discovered it could make big bucks selling the land off to people who wanted to buy lots and build houses in the area that now includes Academy Rd. (then Highland Ave.) and west to about Forest Ave. (Fun Albany fact – we were told the bleachers for the original Albany Academy football field were part of the Woodlawn Park grandstand.)
By 1916 World War I was looming and thanks to Henry Ford almost anyone could own an automobile and make it up to Saratoga for the races.
*One of the shareholders in the Island Park Association was John Holland. He owned a legendary den of iniquity (bookmaking, billiards and booze) – the White House Café on the corner of James Steuben. We were told that Holland owned lots near Manning Blvd. where he stabled and exercised his jumping horses.

The Most Prolific Albany Artists You May Never have Heard of – Meet the Van Zandts – Father and Son
March 20, 2018 September 29, 2021 albanymuskratLeave a comment
We're pretty sure you've seen at least one of these pictures before. We love them; they're cheerful and take us back to a time in our history. They were all painted by a father or son from Albany NY – Thomas Kirby Van Zandt (known as Kirby Van Zandt) or his son, William Garrett Van Zandt.
The Van Zandt family had roots in Albany going back to the 1600s; they were among the earliest of the Dutch Settlers. It appears the family lived in the city until about 1780 or so, and then purchased a farm near the New Scotland Plank Road in the town of Bethlehem. (The Van Zandt farm was probably close to what is now the intersection of Whitehall Rd. and New Scotland Ave.) Kirby married, Frances McCormick from the same vicinity. Archibald McCormick came from Scotland in 1787 and operated a farm about where the Academy of Holy Names is today, across from what is now McCormick Rd.
Kirby was born in 1814 and by time he was 30, in 1844, identified himself as a painter in the city directory. At that time he was living on State St. between Lark and Dove. He sounds like a young man who was fairly confident in his talent and his ability to make a living through his art. The confidence was not misplaced; he was very successful over 40 years. He specialized in horses and farm animals. The area outside Albany was still rural and scattered with hundreds of farm in the surrounding counties,. If you were a fairly well-to-do farmer, you would have the well-known painter Kirby Van Zandt paint your prize winning chicken or bull. Kirby also established himself as a horse-and-carriage painter catering to Albany's wealthier citizens, like Erastus Corning and Kirby's brother-in-law, Judge Van Aernum (the painting of the Judge and his sleigh is in the permanent collection of the Albany Institute of History and Art). In later years he specialized in horses and spent time in Saratoga at the horse tracks.
The Van Zandt paintings are referred to as "folk art", but that isn't meant to diminish the quality of the paintings. It's a term that just describes their style. The Metropolitan Museum says these 19th century " (folk)artists worked principally in the Northeast… Almost all of them favored strong colors, broad and direct application of paint, patterned surfaces, generalized light, skewed scale and proportion, and conspicuous modeling. Most developed compositional formulas that allowed them to work quickly, with limited materials and in makeshift studios." This describes Van Zandt, moving from farm to farm and painting livestock and chickens in barns. In an era when photography was still a new thing, Van Zandt paintings were widely known in this area as way to preserve the image of your favorite animal.
But In several instances Kirby went out of his comfort zone; they involve Leland Stanford (Stanford University). Stanford and his wife Jane Lathrop were born in Albany. Although younger than Van Zandt, Stanford clearly respected Van Zandt's talent and commissioned his work a number of times. In 1878 Stanford invited the noted photographer Eadweard Muybridge to his estate to settle an argument. Muybridge is a photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion and early work in motion-picture projection.
Stanford, who loved horse and horse racing (the shared passion with Van Zandt) believed that at a horse ran all four legs left the ground and at some point it was suspended in the air. Stanford wanted Muybridge to capture this moment in the horse's stride, an instance imperceptible to the naked eye. Muybridge took a series of photos. The plate itself was fuzzy and unsuitable for publication, so it was left to Van Zandt to strengthen the image. He reproduced the image twice, first as drawing of "crayon and ink wash" dated September 16, 1876, and again as the finished canvas in 1878.
Van Zandt also painted one of the few pictures of Leland Stanford, Jr., (when he was about 12 in 1881), 3 years before his too young death from typhoid when he was 15. It's a picture of a bundled up boy and his dog near a frozen lake where people are skating, so it was probably painted in Albany on a Stanford family trip back East. It may be set in Washington Park.
The Cantor Museum at Stanford University includes six paintings by Kirby Van Zandt and one by his son William. They include the Leland, Jr painting and Jane's childhood home – somewhere on Washington Ave. between Dove and S. Hawk. (There are several addresses for their homes in the 1840s city directories so we've been unable to establish the exact location.) He also painted Jane's father, Dyer Lathrop and Leland Sr,'s childhood home on Central Ave. just beyond the Albany city line. Of course he did several pictures of Stanford's favorite horse, "Abe Edgington".
As Kirby's success grew, and he married and had a family, he moved to Knox St. near Madison, where he ultimately had his home and a studio in the building next door. But as Washington Park grew the Van Zandt properties were acquired for Park expansion. The family located to the farm on New Scotland where Kirby spent his final years before his death in 1886. The area was then known as Hurstville, and it must have been quite agreeable, since there was a horse racing track located about where Mater Christi church and school are today (the Pleasure Park trotting track existed from the 1860s to the early 1900s).
This brings us to his son, William who followed in his father's footsteps. William was born in 1867 while the family lived in Albany. He had his father's talent and his love of horse and horse racing. William was actually a "starter" for the Saratoga races and a member of Albany Driving Club. (The Driving Club met at Woodlawn Park – where Albany Academy for Boys is currently located and held trotting horse races.) In addition to painting, William held several jobs, including Albany City vital statistic registrar and then assistant superintendent for art in the Albany public schools. He lived at the family farm in New Scotland, then in the city at several uptown locations and then spent the last 20 or so years in Guilderland. He passed away in 1942.
Both Van Zandts were prolific artists and their painting styles are similar (we read somewhere that William always include 3 birds somewhere his paintings – we can find in some and not others). It's probable the Van Zandts painted hundreds of paintings in their lifetimes. They're in the collections of the Bennington Museum and the Fenimore Art Museum; many are in private collections and other smaller galleries. Sometimes you can find a show at a local museum, but folk art has never really caught on in a big way, which we think is a shame. It can tell us a lot about the lives of the people and objects who were its subjects and the people who made the art.

First-rounder Mueller makes Sharks training camp debut
By James O'BrienSep 15, 2013, 11:18 PM EDT
San Jose Sharks prospect Mirco Mueller made his training camp debut on Sunday, CSNBayArea.com reports.
"Pretty special. It was my first practice with the pros," Mueller said. "The first thing I noticed is they practice really hard and really fast. It was a really high pace today."
The 2013 first-rounder (18th overall) was previously limited by a minor back injury.
Sharks head coach Todd McLellan seemed happy with what he saw from the 18-year-old defenseman, who said that he models his game after blueliners such as San Jose's own Marc-Edouard Vlasic.
"I thought Mirco was fine," Todd McLellan said. "For him, the big test was to get over his injury from the prospect camp tournament. For him to be thrown in without having the other three days, I thought he did an admirable job."
As CSNBayArea.com notes, Mueller's an extreme long-shot to make the big club right out of the draft. Still, it doesn't hurt to make a good first impression, so he must be glad to finally get a chance to do that.

Home GENERAL NEWS Luampa receives K1.3m for Constituency Development Funds
Luampa receives K1.3m for Constituency Development Funds
cash Dollar
Government has released about K1.3 million of the 2013 Constituency Development Funds for Luampa constituency in the western province.
Luampa constituency Member of Parliament Josephine Limata says the money has been allocated to the health and education sectors in the area.
Ms Limata said improvement of health centres in the area will ease the burden that expectant mothers go through to access quality health services.
Ms Limata, who is Chiefs and Traditional Affairs deputy minister, praised the PF government under the leadership of President Michael Sata for bringing development to the various parts of the district.
She said a good portion of the CDF has been allocated to Lubaba, Mulwa and Lui Schools among others in a bid to better the quality of education in Luampa constituency.
Mr Limata said that the PF government was delivering development in the district according to the party manifesto and the promises it made during the 2011 elections.
Mrs Limata further said that the district administrative centre will now be established as the chiefs in the area have already approved the designated map for Luampa district.
She said civil servants in the area were committed to delivering development and were explaining government policy to the people in the locality as Luampa is still a relatively new district.
Mrs Limata, however, requested other civil servants to desist from de-railing government programmes so that come 2016, people in the area will appreciate what the PF government has done in the constituency.
Meanwhile, Mrs Limata has commended the traditional leadership in the area for allocating land to civil servants who intend to construct individual houses in the district.
She said government workers should utilise the land given to them by chiefs so that they build houses for themselves.
Mrs Limata has requested the people in the district to fully support President Sata so that development is enhanced in the constituency.
She, however, said she was disappointed with the slow pace at which Earthrow Power Company Limited, the company contracted by the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) to electrify the area, is implementing the project.
Mrs Limata appealed to REA through the Ministry of Energy to speed up the connection of Luampa district to the national power grid.
She said the power line construction has stalled because the contractor has abandoned the construction works.

338 - Christian Nationalism - Part V - The Bundy Standoffs
Anti-masker, anti-lockdown, anti-vax, anti-choice, anti-intellectualism, anti-government (for chrissake!) right-wing lunatic Ammon Bundy recently announced his candidacy for Governor of Idaho. But before he was a wannabe politician, Bundy was a wannabe hero who thought it would be a good idea to engage federal officials in not one, but two armed standoffs. He should have been locked up for each of these offenses, but… well, you'll just have to listen to this episode to find out why this dangerous fuckwit is still allowed to roam our streets making life worse for all of us.
