Still from video shows August 11, 2018 incident in which Baltimore police officer punches and kicks man

BALTIMORE — A Baltimore police officer has resigned after a video surfaced online showing him repeatedly punching a man and knocking him down over steps on a sidewalk Saturday. The recording lasts about 30 seconds. The city's interim police commissioner said the video "deeply disturbed" him.
The video begins with the officer standing in front of a black man who has his back to a wall. The officer, who is also black, can be seen shoving the man in the chest before the officer starts throwing punches. The man tries to block punches from the officer but doesn't appear to fight back. The man is pushed over some steps by the officer who continues to throw punches, and the video ends with the officer on top of him.
"I'm deeply disturbed by the video that surfaced online," interim Police Commissioner Garry Tuggle said in a statement Saturday. "The officer involved has been suspended while we investigate the totality of this incident. Part of our investigation will be reviewing body worn camera footage."
Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith issued an update Sunday saying the officer had quit.
"The officer involved in yesterday's incident is no longer with the Baltimore Police Department. Interim Commissioner Tuggle has accepted his resignation," the statement said, adding that a second officer seen in the video "remains on administrative duties. This remains an active criminal investigation."
Tuggle is asking any witnesses to contact the department's Office of Professional Responsibility at 410-396-2300.
Warren Brown, an attorney for the man who was knocked down, identified his client as Dashawn McGrier. Brown said his client faces charges for allegedly assaulting the officer in June, charges McGrier is contesting in court. Brown said the officer saw McGrier on Saturday and tried to provoke him as a result of their June encounter.
"He is charged with assaulting that officer then, and so here this officer now is like, you know, going after him," Brown said.
Brown said a court date is set for Aug. 22 on the assault charges, and he said video of that encounter between the two men also exists, though he has not seen it. Brown said he has scheduled a Monday news conference to discuss plans for filing a complaint against the officer.
"It is just an act of police brutality that was unwarranted, and it just does nothing for police-community relations," Brown said. "It does nothing to lower crime. My client was not involved in any criminal activity. It's just gratuitous violence that's unnecessary and does no good for the city."
Brown said his client was being treated in a Baltimore hospital. Brown said McGrier "may have suffered a broken jaw, a broken nose, maybe some fractured ribs, and he had difficulty with feeling his left leg, although before I left he did say that he was beginning to get the feel back in his foot, left foot."
In a news release Saturday, Smith said the man was not criminally charged and had been released from custody.
Smith said the Office of Professional Responsibility "immediately" began investigating after learning of the video. The officer, who has been with the agency for more than a year, was then immediately suspended, Smith said.
Former NAACP head Ben Jealous, a Democrat who is running for governor, said the video "shows just how far community-police relations have fallen in Baltimore, as well as the work that must be done in partnership with city officials to restore trust."
"Building trust begins first and foremost by responding swiftly and transparently, which is why I am heartened that the officer has been suspended pending internal review," Jealous said in a statement. "Long term, we need to be investing in our communities and recruiting police officers who have the temperament, tools, and training to keep us safe without resorting to unnecessary violence."
Baltimore entered a federal consent decree last year after federal investigators detailed longstanding patterns of unconstitutional policing, racial profiling and excessive force. A consent decree, filed in federal court and overseen by a monitor, is generally a road map for changes in fundamental police department practices. In Baltimore's case, the agreement mandates changes in the most fundamental aspects of daily police work, including use of force, searches and arrests.
Federal authorities began investigating city police following the April 2015 death of Freddie Gray, a young black man who was fatally injure

Burnaby Mayor Hurley says city will continue to fight Trans Mountain Expansion Project
posted by: Rattan Mall
Burnaby Mayor Mike Hurley
BURNABY Mayor Mike Hurley said on Tuesday that he will continue fighting to stop the Trans Mountain Expansion Project despite federal government approval of the project because the project poses an unacceptably high risk to local residents.
"As Mayor, my job is to protect the people of Burnaby," Hurley said. "This decision ignores the public safety and environmental threat to people whose lives and property will be at risk if the project goes forward.
"I am extremely disappointed – but not surprised – that the government of Canada has put oil industry profits ahead of the lives of Burnaby's residents and our firefighters.
"Prime Minister Trudeau once said that governments grant permits but communities grant permission. On behalf of Burnaby Council, I can assure you that we do not grant permission."
Opposition to Trans Mountain Expansion Project includes joining the BC government appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. The City will apply for intervenor status in the Supreme Court hearing of the BC government's appeal of a lower court ruling regarding the province's ability to regulate increased bitumen shipments.
The Supreme Court ruling is expected to occur before the project can proceed.

Shaun McMahon began his railway career on the Ffestiniog Railway, joining the permanent staff there as a trainee technician engineer in 1984 when Phil Girdlestone was Works Manager. Thus began a working relationship between the two of them that continued up until the time of Phil's death in 2016.
Shaun moved from the FR to the Vale of Rheidol Railway in 1989, becoming heavily involved in boiler water treatment schemes on various UK preserved lines. At this time he formed "Day McMahon Steam Technical Services" with Nigel Day. A number of successful locomotive redraughtings were carried out by the partnership.
Shaun McMahon (right) talking to Chris Parrott beside FCAF No.3 Camilla.
In 1994 he became Assistant Mechanical Engineer to Girdlestone on the Alfred County Railway in South Africa. He continued on the ACR until 1999 when he moved to Argentina as Technical Manager for the Argentine railway development company Tranex Turismo S.A. He was subsequently employed by Tranex as Technical and Technical Projects Manager at the Ferrocarril Austral Fueguino on Tierra del Fuego (FCAF). This 500 mm gauge railway continues to be committed to an innovative program of steam locomotive development for hauling tourist trains over its 7km of steeply graded track.
For many years Shaun worked under the guidance of Livio Dante Porta frequently being charged with getting Porta's ideas translated into hardware.
Since 2009, Shaun has worked for INTI, the government scientific establishment in Buenos Aires where Porta headed up the Thermodynamics Department from the time he left the Rio Turbio Railway in 1960 to his retirement in 1982.
The photos shown below show two of Shaun's "demonstrator" locomotives which show what can be achieved with minimum investment to improve the performance of poorly designed locomotives. Further modifications are planned for both locomotives when funds become available.

Abstract: People are the centre of technologies. Understanding, monitoring and tracking the behaviour of people will benefit in various areas including driving assistance, surveillance for safety and caring purposes and applications for machine-people interaction. Particularly, pedestrians attract more attention for two reasons: they restrict the behaviours of people to standing and moving upright; and applications for pedestrian detection and monitoring have positively impact on the quality of life. Pedestrian detection and identification, aims at recognising pedestrians fromstill images and video frames. Together with pedestrian recognition and tracking, this topic attempts to train computers to recognise a pedestrian. The problem is challenging. Though frameworks were designed, various algorithms were proposed in recent years, further efforts are needed to improve the accuracy and reliability of the performance. In this thesis, proposing a modifiable framework for pedestrian identification and improving the performances of current pedestrian detection techniques are particularly focused. Based on appearance based pedestrian identification, a modifiable framework is a novel philosophy of developing frameworks which can be easily improved. For pedestrian identification, a novel protocol where layers of algorithms are hierarchically applied to solve the problem. To compare the detected pedestrians, appearance based features are selected, the "bag-of-features" framework is employed to compare the histogram descriptions of pedestrians. To improve the performances of HOG pedestrian detector, the presence of head-shoulder structure is selected as the evidence of the presence of pedestrian. A novel appearance based framework is developed to detect the head-shoulder structure from the detection results of HOG detector. Furthermore, in order to separate multiple pedestrians detected in one bounding box, a novel algorithm is proposed to detect the approximated symmetry axes of pedestrians.

Honoring the Past and Embracing the Future
It's official Pope Francis was formally installed as the Bishop of Rome on Sunday with less of the pomp and pageantry than the usual ritual even taking time to honor those that came before. Francis in another display of his humility toward the post, he arrived at St. John in Latern Basilica to honor a wildly popular past pope by blessing a plaque renaming a corner of the piazza outside the church after Pope John Paul II, who died in 2005. Arriving a half hour early, he gave the blessing after the mayor of Rome unveiled the plaque marked "Giovanni Paul II Square" in one section of the piazza which holds free rock concerts, political and labor rallies. The pope fashion was simple as he wore a plain white cassock and the Italian cardinal wore his red cape. The two hour long installation in the early evening was significant for the church due to the fact a pope is a pontiff because he is elected Bishop of Rome but not visa versa.
The basilica is Rome's most ancient, with the foundation dating back to the early 4th century, and the ceremony stems from centuries of traditional ritual that modern popes have updated to the times, but Francis is sticking true to his own tradition of simplicity and humility. While most ornately dressed pontiffs in centuries past arrive in horse drawn carriage, Francis came through the side entrance of the basilica complex in an open topped white jeep. Before entering the doors, the vehicle stopped again and again so that the security team could pass babies to him to kiss. When the wind picked up, Francis took off his skull cap exposing his head to the wind and tussling his hair according to the Associated Press. Later Francis wore the peaked bishop's hat and wearing cream colored vestments sat in the mosaic studded basilica chair known as the "Cathera Romana" which represents the post of Rome's bishop. He then was handed the pastoral staff, symbolizing a bishop's care for his flock. During his homily, Francis said, "It is with joy that I am celebrating the Eucharist for the first time in this Lateran Basilica, the Cathedral of the Bishop of Rome. I greet all of you with great affection… those who love are able to understand, to hope, to inspire confidence; they do not give up, they do not burn bridges, they are able to forgive."
Throughout the ceremony and well after, the pontiff surprised and delighted the crowd with his humility and continued to set news standards for the church. Francis during the ceremony updated the obedience pledge recited by Cardinal Valilini, who is the pope's prelate, when professing obedience to the pope's teaching and leadership replacing the pontiff as being "in an elevated position to govern" with the pontiff as "presiding over the Churches in charity." In honoring John Paul, Francis also paid tribute to a pontiff who embraced his role as bishop of Rome as the late pontiff would visit Rome parishes, hundreds of them and poor neighborhood on the city's outskirts on Sunday mornings. When Francis mentioned that John Paul "closed his eyes to this world" eight years ago this month, the new pope drew so much applause he could not finish his sentence the Associated Press reports. Francis may be the pope that decided whether or not the Polish Born Pontiff will receive the church's highest honor, sainthood. The church process to certify the first miracle needed for John Paul's beatification only took six years from his death until Pope Benedict XVI beatified him in 2001 which is the shortest time in modern history and the last formal step before sainthood according to the Associated Press. The pope in his Vatican apperance on Sunday called for the faithful to "go into the piazzas and announce Christ our savior" to the people and "Bring the Good News with sweetness and respect" referring to the Gospel of course. John Paul, Benedict and Francis have all made shoring up flagging faith a priority of their leaderships. The new pope will be leading the Catholic youth pep rallies this summer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, during a pilgrimage to his home continent.

Erin Jackson Joins Maame Biney, Shani Davis On USA Olympic Speed Skating Team
by Samuel Abasi Posted on January 9th, 2018
Just weeks after 17-year-old Maame Biney made history as the first Black woman to qualify for any Olympic speed skating team, another black woman, Erin Jackson has qualified for the U.S. Olympic Long-Track Speed Skating team. Jackson placed third in the 500-meter race to land her coveted spot on the national team, behind Sochi Olympians Brittany Bowe and Heather Bergsma. Bowe and Bergsma had already earned spots in PyeongChang by finishing one-two in the 1000m, so doubling up in another event cleared the way for Jackson to join them.
The Winter Olympics is set to kick off in Pyeongchang County, South Korea on February 9, 2018.
Jackson's becomes the third Olympic athlete to make the U.S. Speed Skating team and the first Black woman ever to make the Long-Track Speed Skating team. She joins fellow long-tracker Shani Davis and short-tracker Maame Biney, who is originally from Ghana.
Jackson only began taking up long-track speed skating in September 2017. She is a former University of Florida engineering student and roller derby player for the Ocala Cannibals and Jacksonville RollerGirls.
Although she only began taking up long-track speed skating in September 2017, the florida native and former University of Florida student has a background as an in-line skater and roller derby athlete.
"I really wasn't expecting any of this, just coming in as a newbie, just trying to do the best I can," she said, smiling. "I still don't even know."
Speedskater Shani Davis, the first African-American to win an individual gold medal at the Winter Olympics, qualified for Team USA on Wednesday, marking his fifth straight appearance at the Winter Games.
Davis finished second (1:09.23) in the 1,000-meter race at the Olympic trials in Milwaukee, solidifying his spot on the team ahead of February's games in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
A Chicago native, Davis began roller skating at 2 years old, eventually leading to his making the U.S. junior national team in 1999 at age 16. In 2002, he made his first Olympics as an alternate for the short track team. Four years later, he placed first in the men's 1,000 meters, becoming the first black athlete from any country to win an individual gold medal at the Winter Olympics, and second in the men's 1,500 meters. In 2010, he won another gold (1,000-meter) and silver (1,500-meter) medal, and Davis is a seven-time world champion in both events.
Davis is one of the best-known black Winter Olympians, joined by bobsledder Vonetta Flowers, the first black Olympian to win a gold medal (in a team event), and figure skater Debi Thomas, the first African-American to medal at the Winter Olympics.
Other black athletes joining Davis in Pyeongchang will be hockey player Jordan Greenway, the first African-American to play for Team USA; the Nigerian women's bobsled team, the first team from an African nation to qualify in the event; and fellow American speedskater Maame Biney, 17, who in December became the first black woman to qualify for a U.S. speedskating team.

EARLIER : Maame Biney : Ghanaian Teen Is 1st Black Woman On USA Olympic Speed Skating Team – 17-year-old native of Ghana, Maame Biney became the first black woman to qualify for a U.S. Olympic speedskating team with a pair of victories in the 500 meters. Maame Biney cruised to victory in the first 500 final at the short track trials on Saturday, beating Olympians Lana Gehring, Jessica Kooreman, and Katherine Reutter-Adame handily.
The 2018 PyeongChang Winter Games will be Biney's first Olympics.
"I can't believe it," she told reporters. "It's a really good feeling, but it has to set in first because it takes me a while. I'm like, 'Holy Cow.' When I crossed the finish line, I don't know what I was thinking. I was just like, 'I got first! That's so cool!'"
Before the second final, her father sitting in the stands held up a sign reading: "Kick some hiney Biney."
She sure did.
Biney set a blistering pace in taking an early lead that widened as the wild and wooly race went on. She crossed the finish line on the hockey-sized rink and began clapping and then pumping her arms so hard she lost her balance and fell.
She went down laughing all the way.
Maame, whose parents are Ghanaian, will be the second black speed skater on a U.S. Olympic team. Shani Davis was 19 when he qualified for the short-track team in 2002. He later switched to long track and won four medals, including two golds, according to USA Today.
Biney was born on January 28, 2000 in Accra, Ghana, a country on the western side of Africa.
She started skating lessons at six years old after moving to Reston, Virigina to live with her father, Kweku.
The father and daughter were driving one day when Kweku saw a "learn to skate this fall" sign on the side of the road. He asked Biney if she was interested, then had to explain to her what ice skating was.
"She didn't even know what that word [skating] was and I explained it to her. The only thing cold in Ghana is cold beer," he told the AP.
She started with figure skaitng lessons then switched to speed skating on a coach's recommendation.
Maame Biney broke through on the world stage at the 2017 World Junior Championships, held last January in Innsbruck, Austria. Biney won a bronze in the 500m, and finished seventh overall.
Biney proved she's one of the U.S.' top skaters at the 2017 Short Track World Cup Qualifiers, an August competition that determined which short track skaters would compete at the fall World Cups. Biney won the 500m and finished in the top three in the 1000m and 1500m, earning her the top overall ranking.

Masterpieces By Mother Nature - The Glacier Caves of Iceland
ARCTIC TRAVEL / ICELAND
Photographer: Agust Runarsson
Writer: Vilborg Einarsdottir
The remote and far away Arctic. The last frontier on earth. The region of polar bears and northern lights. The home to indigenous people, exotic cultures and the endless white. And, still that part of the planet where icebergs and glaciers are accessible. Despite the irreversible fact that nowhere else on earth is the evidence of climate change as stark and obvious with retreating glaciers, thinning sea-ice and overall melt of our frozen freshwater reserves. All the above have given explorers, adventurers and travelers good reasons to journey to the far away and remote North. And now, more are coming than ever before. Most to experience the white wonders of Arctic nature - before they melt away. This recent trend in tourism is felt all around the circumpolar Arctic. In coming months the JONAA photojournalistic team will invite readers on visual journeys to some of the amazing places in the Arctic that are still fairly accessible for the normal tourist to visit and literally get up-close and personal with High North's reigning elements of ice and snow.
Our journey begins in Iceland, where JONAA photojournalist and long time wilderness and glacier guide, Agust Runarsson, leads us into different ice-caves. The five ice-caves in this article are, or rather were, situated in three different glaciers. All requiring some effort to reach, although Iceland also has ice-caves that are easier to access. But regardless of how to get there, ice-caves are places where tourists should under no circumstances enter without guidance and the needed security knowledge. But once inside, a magical world of surreal serenity opens up when one faces the wonder of arctic nature that ice-cave truly are.
JONAA©Agust Runarsson
"Personally I prefer to visit ice-caves that pose some challenge to get to. Not just because being in the the icy outdoors and crossing glacier terrain is my passion, but simply because chances are that you and your group will be alone while there. And, especially for people stepping into an ice-cave for the first time that does matter. It is such a unique experience and so much to take in. Not just the overwhelming surroundings, this surreal world where every shade of blue reflects from crystal ice formations and sculptures beyond your imagination - but because being in an ice-cave also plays with your senses. There is almost an alien kind of a silence that blends with echoing deep sounds from within the ice. Then you are breathing in the moist air and feeling the cold mist on your face and every direction you look is an out-of-this-world vision. You need stillness just to take it all in," says Agust.
He first entered an ice-cave himself some 15 years ago. "A new world opened up for me and right there and then, it became my favourite world. It is like nothing else you can ever find yourself in and every trip is a new adventure into a new world. You are always exploring, always entering something you haven´t seen before because this is such a changing world. I was mesmerized that first time - and I still am," says Agust. Considering that his guiding and group-leading work regularly takes him to other exotic parts of Iceland and glorious nature abroad like in Africa and South America, the comparison is strong. But ever since that first time, he says nothing has ever matched the glacier ice-caves. Since then his trips into ice-caves are close to countless; on his own, with groups, very often with photographers, filmmakers and media people - and he has even brought people to ice-caves for yoga and meditation purposes.
"For me personally, the excitement and privilege of this work lies no less in exploring the glaciers every year to find new caves or see if caves are still in the place they were the year before. Then to find out if they are safe to enter, how far one can go inside and what safety measures need to be taken before you bring other people along. That whole process is an annual challenge and a wonderful, rewarding part of the my work," says Agust.
"But at the same time you experience a deep sorrow of seeing the devastating effects of climate change on Arctic nature. The speed at which our glaciers are melting and retreating is faster than anyone could have imagined only a decade back and it is very visible when it comes to the ice-caves. Like all parts of glaciers they melt faster, they are fewer and the ice is thinner so more are too dangerous to enter. Then, of course with retreating glaciers the ice-caves are a lot further to reach. Some are simply gone forever, like a small ice-cave I visited often. It formed around a glacier-water stream, a kind of a waterfall inside the ice where the glacier came down into a canyon. It was gorgeous but now it is gone. There is only the canyon with no ice in sight."
"It is not just the overwhelming surroundings, this surreal world where every shade of blue reflects from crystal ice formations and sculptures beyond your imagination - being in an ice-cave also plays with your senses"
Most people come with an idea of what they will see from looking at pictures of glacier caves. But in reality, no one is quite prepared for the magic that awaits. JONAA©Agust Runarsson
Arctic nature is one of constant changes and the formation of ice-caves can differ greatly from one year to the other. Both in terms of where they form and how they form. Due to thinning and retreating glaciers because of climate change, ice caves that are safe to enter are becoming fewer and the period to safely visit them shortens every year.
The most basic explanation of an ice-cave is that it is a labyrinth or dome of ice forming inside a glacier, over a stream of melting glacier water in summer, accessible through an opening where the water finds its way from under the glacier.
When these streams then freeze in winter and the dome remains, the ice cave is formed. Once frost has lessened the dangers of ice breaking from the ceiling, that is the time when the ice caves, those surreal and magical wonders can be visited.
"A camera is as essential on an ice-cave trip, as the safety helmet," says Agust Runarsson. "If for no other reason than simply the fact that words will not be enough to describe the surroundings. One needs the visual language to do that."
Agust who has photographed ice-caves for over a decade says he still feels the thrills when doing so. "It is best described as a combination of amazement, humbleness and pure joy, and that has never changed." But he also says the effects of climate change are stark in the caves and already limiting greatly the period of year when ice-caves are safe to enter.
"But," he adds, "although we have fewer caves, where they are the beauty and the glory is all still there and ice is an ever changing element of Arctic nature. A cave you revisit with even only days in between, may look quite different than when you were there the last time."
"The colour palette of the ice may even change while you are there. It runs from pale bluish-white tones, to bluer and bluest, sometimes with strong turquoise tones reflecting and at other times it goes to blue green and into dark green.
An ice-cave is lit by daylight coming down through cracks or holes in the surface ice above and reflected by the crystal ice and the snow within the cave.
The clarity and "cleanness" of the ice plays an important role and it matters greatly if there is volcanic ash in the ice, sand or snow on the ice and on the ground of a cave. But it really is the strength of the sunlight that gets through that is the dominant decision maker of the colours inside an ice cave." says Agust and we leave it to his amazing pictures to describe this magic inside the glaciers of Iceland. ▢

India-Russia collaborate to run passenger train between Nagpur-Secunderabad at the speed of 200 kmph
By Pratyaksha Mitra on January 23, 2017 1 Comment
New Delhi : From November 2016, three major railway mishaps have occurred in India in a very short span. The last of these mishaps was witnessed on Saturday night at 11 pm, claiming lives of 39 passengers. When the whole country is reacting with grief due to these mishaps, a news has come to the fore that India and Russia are going to jointly build a railway track between Nagpur and Secunderabad, capable of carrying the passengers at a speed of 200 kmph.
On the one hand, the Railway Ministry is making all-out efforts to modernize the Indian railways, these frequent accidents are posing safety concerns of the rail routes. In these circumstances, efforts are being taken to increase the speed of the passenger rail transportation in India. For this purpose, the Russian railways is collaborating with the Indian Railways. Under this, the railways of both the countries are making joint efforts to make the 575 km railway track between the Indian cities of Nagpur and Secunderabad, capable of carrying the passenger load at a speed of 200 kmph. The blueprints of this development project have been submitted by both the agencies. Russian agencies have agreed to provide India the necessary technology. Along with that, the Russian agencies have also agreed to extend cooperation to develop rail tracks for carrying passenger loads at high speeds.
Also, since the tracks generally have speed restrictions on bridges and curves, Russia is also going to provide assistance to make these track stretches capable of operating at high speeds. Moreover, the Russian authorities have also pointed out that since the present Indian Railways coaches are not capable of carrying load at 200 kmph. India needs modern passenger coaches to operate at high speeds. Along with that, it is also suggested that since the present railway track crossing system near railway stations is unsafe for a train running at 200 kmph, India needs to make changes in the track crossing system in order to increase the speed of rail transportation. Moreover, it has also become evident from the studies done by the Russian agencies that, in order to control the train running at 200 kmph, the current radio communication system should be replaced by digital communication system.
Indian Railway Ministry has collaborated with Russia to develop railway transport service between Nagpur and Secunderabad, running at the speed of 200 kmph. Under the pact, the two countries will jointly bear the finances required to develop the rail route.
Safety measures like automated alarms, anti-collision and anti-ram systems along with the safety measures at railway crossings and overhead bridges, have also been proposed in the plan.

Husband of slain tourist questions access to guns
During a press conference at the German consulate on Jackson Street, the Schroer family said they had met with the district attorney and police officials. They were told that authorities are hoping to make an arrest in the near future.
This is the first time Stefan Schroer as been back to San Francisco since last August when he was in the city with his wife, Mechthild Schroer, celebrating their wedding anniversary. During a shootout between rival gang members at a night club on Mason near Geary, a stray bullet hit Mechthild in the head, killing her. Nine months later, there have still been no arrests.
This week, Stefan returned to San Francisco, this time with his two sons. They wanted to see where their mother died and to understand what happened.
"When I came back to Germany, my sons said they wished to come see the place where my wife, and their mother, died," Stefan said. "I think that was the most important point for me to come back to San Francisco, and also to say thank you for the nice people I met on that night."
"We believe that we're getting closer to the point where this case could be [brought to] an arrest," District Attorney George Gascon said. "But, it's still an ongoing investigation and I want to make it very clear. This is an ongoing process."
Last year, as police chief, Gascon said an arrest was imminent. An 18-year-old man was taken into custody but was not charged. On Wednesday, Schroer said he had a good feeling police would make an arrest in the case. He also said it was hard to understand how it is so easy for young people in America to get their hands on weapons, which is not the case in his native Germany. He added that San Francisco is a very special city and said he plans to return again.
A private memorial was held Wednesday for Mechthild Schroer.

The Hague Convention
The Hague Conve
What is The Hague Convention?
The Hague Convention on the Protection of Children and Co-Operation in Respect of Inter-country Adoption, known as "the Hague Convention" is an international agreement between countries that is designed to protect children adopted across national boundaries.
The Hague Convention has two fundamental goals:
The best interests of children are considered with each intercountry adoption.
The prevention of abduction, exploitation, sale, or trafficking of children.
An Overview of The Hague
The Hague is an International Treaty to protect children who are adopted across national boundaries. The Convention's Provisions are as follows:
The Convention will apply to adoptions in which children move from one Convention party country to another.
Such an adoption may take place only if: the country of origin has established that the child is adoptable, that due consideration has been given to the child's adoption in its country of origin and an intercountry adoption is in the child's best interests, and that after counseling, the necessary consents to the adoption have been given freely, AND, the receiving country has determined that the prospective adoptive parents are eligible and suited to adopt, and that the child they wish to adopt will be authorized to enter and reside permanently in that country.
Adoption agencies and individual providers of international adoption services may be authorized to perform designated functions with regard to individual adoption cases provided they have become Hague Convention accredited or approved.
Persons wishing to adopt a child resident in another party country must initially apply to a designated authority in their own country to obtain approval for intercountry adoption.
The Convention provides that, with limited exceptions, there can be no contact between the prospective adoptive parents and any parent or other person/institution that cares for the child until certain requirements have been met.
The Convention requires the recognition of Convention adoptions certified as such, unless recognition would be manifestly contrary to the country's public policy, taking into account the best interests of the child.
To view The Hague Convention in its entirety, visit the Hague Convention website.
The Intercountry Adoption Act
On October 6, 2000 President Bill Clinton signed into law the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000, the US implementation of the Hague Convention on International Adoption. To view the IAA in its entirety, please click here.
Summary of the Provisions of the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000 (IAA)
The State Department oversees the process of accreditation and approval of US adoption service providers, and has designated a non-federal qualified accrediting entity, the Council on Accreditation, to perform the actual Convention accreditation/approval functions pursuant to Hague standards and procedures.
Great Wall China Adoption and Children of All Nations have full Hague Accreditation for international adoption, recognizing our excellence in service and high standards of practice. If you have a question or comment about The Hague Convention and how it will affect your adoption please contact your case manager at Great Wall China Adoption.

"I was raised to believe that service was my purpose."
When Commander Michael Burnham is convinced enough in her own rightness to attack Captain Phillippa Georgiou, her mutiny earns her a place in the brig – just as the Klingons attack, endangering all that Burnham holds dear.
One of the hallmarks of good writing is that you put your characters in layers of jeopardy. Everything builds and builds until the character is forced to choose something in a way that reveals the uttermost depth of that character. The dreadful algebra of necessity, Pratchett called it. What do you do when you're in such a terrible situation that no answer is good, that you have to choose something awful? What do you do when you realize this only afterwards? One of the good things about this episode is how it applies this rule well. Burnham and Georgiou are each combating the Dreadful Algebra in the second half of this two-part pilot, starting with Burnham waking up nearly-exposed to vacuum and somehow finding a way to get shot into the working part of a ship in a fantastic sequence which neatly ties into the foreshadowing of the previous episode.
Burnham is a Spock for the modern generation. Human instead of half-Human, but both raised by Vulcans – with Burnham internalizing trauma at a deep level in the course of her life, after a Klingon attack takes away her parents. Confronted with a warlike Klingon, she responded. Did she know the weapon would kill him? Was it an accident? I'm not sure Burnham knows. This episode sketches more in depth the past between Burnham and Georgiou; we learn how Georgiou tried to groom Burnham for the role of Captain and was perhaps blinded by her own affection for her charge. When Georgiou confronts Burnham about her actions, after she escapes from the brig, Burnham can't even tell if the motivation for her act is rooted in logic or emotion. It's kind of a big breakdown from the whole 'I am perfect and judging everyone else' position which Burnham held when she arrived at the ship. Does Sarek getting Burnham to act and try to help Georgiou despite Burnham's internal struggles and despair imply there's a lot more to this character than we see here? I don't know, but the connection between the two was effective.
Georgiou isn't forced to analyze her actions with the same depth as Burnham. She obviously wrestles just as much with notions of right and wrong, with imprisoning Georgiou in the brig. The fact that her ship is attacked – that Burnham is correct in her analysis of Klingon behavior – just makes her even more frustrated because Georgiou's truly trying to uphold the standards of Starfleet and continue to spread the Federation. This means the ends cannot justify the means. Redemption is definitely a part of Georgiou's worldview, however – and when the chips are totally down, Georgiou has no problem with beaming over onto the Klingon ship with Burnham to try and take T'Kuvma alive, and is actually pretty fantastic in all the action scenes, as you might expect from Michelle Yeoh.
I wasn't too enthralled with the Klingons in the last episode, but this episode, I thought they brought them along far more. Last episode they seemed about on par with the worst of TOS: cheesy, shiny monsters, often exaggerating racial stereotypes. They hated a trite phrase, "We come in peace." The subtitles were annoying, especially if you watched with closed captions and a sound effect popped on screen. This episode gave the Klingons a little bit of depth, although the Maniacal Religiousish Leader is almost a Trek stereotype in itself. I loved the scene of their invisible ship slicing through the Admiral's and then flickering back. The rescuing of the dead was fantastic, and so was the death of T'Kuvma, played by Chris Obi. Whom do we seek. Kahless. How do we find him? Together. Give us light to see. Forever. Will he hide from us always? Never. This is a far more complex warrior culture than simply Argh! We shall conquer! Still, we never find out the meaning behind their hate for "We come in peace," and while I could possibly come up with a plotsplainer, it feels wrong to have to do so for the freaking pilot.
Georgiou's death was unexpected and frustrating. I really loved the dynamic between her character and Burnham, and I loved the fact that it was two badass women who jumped into the breach and tried to bring back a giant Klingon. It's clearly going to seriously impact Burnham, though. Who, after the crew escapes in a (very cool) pod scene, winds up standing for trial.
And Burnham pleads guilty to her role in all of it, and now sees herself as the enemy. And is sentenced to imprisonment for life. This final speech was badly captioned on the CBS AllAccess app, which frustrated me for 9.99 a month and at the very final moment of the show.
I'm not sure about the whole thing with Sarek as a mystical advisory Pokémon. DS9, however, also started out with a lot of mysticism.
The preview for the next episode isn't captioned, but shows Burnham being shipped to prison and experiencing a lot of weird stuff – and the return of the Klingons. Judging by this, Burnham is going to become an action hero.
I really want to learn more about all of the crew. Some of them don't get named in this episode, which is sad, but they all seemed earnest and interesting. From the preview, Doug Jones will be back as Lt. Saru.
This Trek had a very strong, diverse vibe. Both Captain and Commander were non-white women, who, yay, spoke to each other often about things that were not men. This is causing crankiness on the internet. This alone makes me want to give the show more of a chance.
I know the technology has changed or upgraded or whatever, but isn't this a new timeline or something with JJ Abrams? Regardless, I feel this is a meh point for me. We're in 2017 and we can envision basic technology that people wouldn't have come up with during TOS. Plus, based on my Understanding of Humanity, I could easily see an episode where they give up the holographic technology because it's bad for you and radiation or something, so they have to go back and develop special rooms, or whatever. Connect it intelligently enough and it looks like scifi.
The captions were a big problem for many Deaf and hard of hearing people online. Look, if you want to build an audience, you can't get people to risk ten bucks then slap them in the face. The AllAccess app is the biggest obstacle to my liking this show at the moment, that and the knowledge that it's included with Netflix in Every. Other. Country. In. The. World.
Sarek: No matter your shame, gather your strength. Find a way to help those who need you.
Much more love from me than I felt at the end of the first episode.
The second episode has me hooked, as long as they can keep the writers away from the Hokey Hooch they were clearly drinking when they wrote the Klingons during the previous episode.
The best parts of this episode were Burnham and Georgiou, for me; my question is, now that half the team is killed off, how can the show continue its momentum? I was going to go with four, but the captioning issues made me go with... three out of five body-bombs.
Yes, the captioning bit was peeving as all get out. Everyone please use the CBS All Access captioning complaints for streaming service to register your opinion that this is not acceptable access. (Second section at http://www.cbs.com/closed-captioning/) If you're a hearing person, feel free to express your solidarity by quoting T'kuvma, "There is no honor without unity. There is no home for any of us, unless it is shared by all."
I'm looking forward to the exploration of Klingon ritual and such. The difference in the approach to death rituals between these Klingons and those of TNG and beyond are pretty dramatic and suggest something that causes an entire reorientation of their spirituality.
The Sarek stuff was great largely in part because James Frain does a bang up job. I'm intrigued by the mysticism here as well as I've always had a strong sense that Vulcans have a spiritual mysticism of sorts that meshes with their rigorous application of logic. It'll probably end up looking something like some forms of Buddhism should it get developed in the show. I'm just hoping they don't botch it.
DS9 is my favorite Trek being a religion scholar because there's a lot of complex expressions of religion, spirituality, and theology that crop up in various ways around various races. Early on, some of it was done well, like the pilot where the whole "existence outside of time" thing was explored. But other times it was horribly hamfisted and without nuance or subtlety, such as the creationist v. science controversy over the school. Later in the series, the nuances just got better and better though. The whole dynamic of the Dukat led Pah-wraith cult was chilling and the final showdown worked quite well given the dangers of oversimplifying the dualism between Prophets and Pah-wraiths that would have left it utterly flat. The "continued story" in the DS9 novels ultimately explored and further complexified the whole Bajoran spirituality as well.
Anyway, there's talent in the writing pool for Trek stuff to develop the Klingon and Vulcan mysticism here well enough, I just hope it matures well.
I'd like to thank the Klingons for lighting up the Federation bridge so I could actually see it.
I really, really, liked this - together with the first hour that set things up.
And although I could see the captains death coming from a mile away, and also thought it a bit uneccesary, I do respect the way in which they did it. No dying in her arms, no famous last words. Just death. Very effective.
Looking forward to the following episodes and am very much hoping that, even though Jason Isaacs is a tremendous actor and such a good fit for the role he will be playing, that they keep up the path they're tredding on with questioning stereotypes.
What I mean by this is that Isaacs, white middle-aged male, seems like an uninspired/non-creative way to go that I hope they make his character into nothing but a stereotype - as with sidecharacters.
Will definitely follow this closely, feels like it'll be a new favourite Star Trek-series!
Much as I love Jason Isaacs, I spent all of this episode depressed that Georgiou was going to die because I love Michelle Yeoh and that character even more. I knew for sure she was a goner because of the casting news - if Jason Isaacs is the Captain, she will obviously have to be killed off - and because of her listing as a guest star. But she was awesome and her relationship with Burnham the most interesting in the show so far, so that was frustrating.
I'm also frustrated that the show is serialised, because one of the things I love about Star Trek is that it's episodic and I think there is value in episodic television - but that's another rant for another time.
That aside, the show looks pretty awesome so far, and I love the uniforms!
I was under the impression this is the Prime Universe, rather than the Abram's Kelvin universe in the films but there's nothing to indicate either way.
I really like that Sarek is the connective tissue between this series and the other Treks. Be nice to see more Vulcan culture through both his and Burnham's eyes and we're at a point where prosthetics and SFX makes proper exploration of alien worlds more doable.
The thought the use of subtitles for the Klingons was a mistake but I liked everything else about them. It makes sense for T'Kuvma and co to be less jovial and charismatic than familiar Klingons because they're religious fundamentalists. Their dislike of the Federation makes sense too: we know the Federation are the good guys but there's no reason for other races to. It reminded me of Ambassador Soval to Admiral Forrest about Vulcans fearing humans and what they might become.
Overall, a strong start I felt.
I also saw Georgiou's death coming a mile off, but I wonder if she will continue to appear regularly via flashbacks. It can't be a coincidence that there is seven years (the average length of a Trek series) of history between her and Burnham. Are they going to pull an Arrow and have duel storylines in the past and present? Hopefully they will do a better job ob it than that show.
Overall, I thought this was one of the strongest starts to a Star Trek series and look forward to see more.
So, between the first episode on CBS and the second episode available during the free trial period of CBS All Access, we get basically a prequel to the actual show rather than the show itself, but if we want to actually WATCH the show, we've got to pay $6/month. Yes, I know All Access gives us more than just Discovery, but I don't need their back catalog, and I don't give a rat's behind about The Good Fight. I feel like I did at the end of the 2nd Pirates Of The Caribbean movie and realized I'd just watched a two-hour trailer for the 3rd Pirates Of The Caribbean movie.
I'm rewatching in preparation for the episodes I'm reviewing, and I really liked this episode more on second viewing. I particularly enjoyed Burnham logicking her way out of the brig by making the computer see her POV.
I wasn't suprised that Georgiou died, they should not have put her as a special guest star in the credits. I was suprised about T'Kuvma getting killed though. So he won't be the main Klingon baddie after all.
I just hope that the actual show and the Discovery can live up to the two-part pilot. Cause this ship and crew was worthy of having a show about it too.

Security/Greeter
From his early days with his 5 siblings on a farm in Shelby County, Indiana, Vulcan knew that he wanted to be close to the action of the big city. His early years were spent in Indianapolis, learning how to handle the toughest customers, even big dogs like Mastiffs!
Never content to let moss grow under him, Vulcan soon headed to the Great West where he enjoyed 2 years of beautiful scenery in the Mile High state of Colorado. But, knowing that there was need for him in the Midwest, Vulcan returned and has now made a home here in Wheaton.
You may not see Vulcan, but rest assured that he is here, watching over the day to day happenings and ensuring that all is well. If you want a peek at this handsome boy, just rattle a treat bag...he will be by shortly thereafter!

HuaRay Technology and Movidius open a new chapter on industrial vision together_Zhejiang HuaRay Technology Co., Ltd.
November 8th, VISION 2016 International Machine Vision Exhibition Stuttgart, Germany: HuaRay Technology, the machine vision subsidiary of Dahua which is one of the top 3 world-leading video surveillance companies, officially announced the latest 5000 Series Smart Camera based on Myriad2 platform from the world-renowned computer vision company Movidius.
Movidius is a leading global company in the field of deep learning and machine intelligence. The company is dedicated to developing high performance vision processing chips that can run a combination of both traditional machine vision algorithms alongside deep neural networks at high speed. In September Intel announced plans to acquire Movidius. The latest Myriad 2 Vision Processor performs several features including computational imaging and image signal processing at extremely low power consumption. This chip has been widely applied in various products such as Google's Project Tango phone, DJI drones and FLIR thermal imaging cameras. HuaRay's announcement also marks the first official machine vision application of Myriad 2 that is in mass production with the 5000 Series Smart Camera.
The 5000 Series Smart Camera features compatible algorithms such as barcode reading, vision localization, template matching, measurement, and OCR (all with independent intellectual property rights).

The Colors of Wes Anderson
At CurlyRed, we are constantly inspired.
A great source of inspiration is the artistic elements used in film. The costumes in Chicago and Moulin Rouge!, the typography in The Artist, the illustration style in Monsters Inc., and even the set design of childhood favorite Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory can all serve to create great ideas.
In our opinion, Wes Anderson is as much an artist as he is a film director. And he uses color better than any other director we can think of. In his brilliant work such as The Grand Budapest Hotel and The Royal Tenebaums, every visual detail is taken into consideration. This leads to stunning color palettes that completely encompass the mood, character and respective time periods of each film.
We are not the only ones to notice. A Tumblr of Wes Anderson Palettes has popped up, and we couldn't help but share. Hope you're inspired as well! Enjoy.
