Get some back-up and conduct a thorough, cautious search of the immediate area of the last sighting for that is often where they can be found hiding. |
Watch for vehicles circling since they may be friends who have been called to the scene by the suspect. |
If you do not locate the suspect, consider leaving officers hidden in the area for a time watching for the suspect to re-surface. |
Continue with a follow-up investigation. |
Use the registration information, witness statements and passenger statements to locate the suspect hours, days or even months after the pursuit. In one such instance, the suspect parked his vehicle in front of his house and exited thinking he was literally “home free.” He was heard laughing with a friend about how he ... |
For the active street officer, it is imperative that when a violator chooses to engage in mindless flight, that officer’s brain is totally engaged before, during and after the pursuit to ensure the end result is a pursuit of excellence. |
“The thing that a lot of people want to talk about with the iPhone X is its $999 starting price,” said Nilay Patel in TheVerge.com. “But when you have the phone in your hand, it feels...worth it.” Apple’s new premium smartphone (the X is pronounced “ten”) will start shipping in November, and based on what we’ve seen so... |
Richardson is home to a new Peruvian restaurant where the rotisserie chicken is already wowing the locals. Called The Brasa Bar and Grill, it's a family-run spot featuring Peruvian classics such as lomo saltado — sirloin with onions, tomatoes, and french fries — plus American dishes rendered with a Peruvian flair. |
The restaurant opened in March at 430 N Coit Rd., in a former Walmart that's been retrofitted for retail businesses such as Champs Restaurant Supply. Felipe Muñoz, a former chef at Cheesecake Factory and Matchbox, founded Brasa with three partners, who did much of the work involved, from designing the menu to some of t... |
"We've put in a lot of effort," Muñoz says. "And from the first day we opened, we've had so many people come by. We didn't plan to be that busy so soon." |
Brasa draws in the community thanks to festive events such as salsa night on Saturdays with a live band and dancing. They've been hosting live screenings of the UEFA Champions League games, the international football competition which is ongoing through the end of April. |
Customers love their rotisserie chicken, cooked over hot coals, a process that's visible in the dining room; Brasa translated to English is "ember." |
The chicken can be ordered whole, half, or quarter, with choice of two sides from a selection that includes broccoli, succotash, corn, fries, plantains, or rice. |
Appetizers include tamales, Buffalo wings, fried calamari, and two notable items starring yuca. One is yuca cheese bites, like little yuca cheese fritters, drizzled with huancaina sauce, the creamy golden mix of queso fresco, aji amarillo peppers, and onions. The other is "loaded" yuca fries, topped Snuffers-style with... |
There are soups such as seafood soup, shrimp soup, and Creole-style beef soup; and salads such as Cobb, Caesar, and an Oriental salad with rice noodles and sesame dressing. |
Traditional entrees include salmon with mushed potatoes and asparagus; rib eye with fingerling potatoes; and BBQ ribs with cornbread and cole slaw. |
There's also a mash-up section with fun fusion items such as steak with pesto pasta, "Peruvian lo mein," and spaghetti with huancaina sauce. |
Their Peruvian fried rice is a pretty dish, with stir-fried rice topped with a "blanket" made of a thin sheet of scrambled eggs. |
Sandwiches include a Cuban, Philly cheesesteak, pulled pork, and 2-ounce sliders, two for $10. A full bar includes beers from Peru such as Pilsen Callao and Cusqueña. |
"We use very fresh fish for our ceviche, including flounder, which is a fish they use in Peru to make ceviche," Muñoz says. "We make our lomo saltado to order in a wok, we shave the steak. We're doing everything possible to give Peruvian people what they recognize from Peru." |
As President-elect Barack Obama’s national security team begins to take shape, there is increasing disquiet among antiwar activists that his appointees and rumored appointees have thus-far, without exception, favored the Iraq invasion and held hawkish foreign policy positions. |
The persistent reports that Obama is in talks with Secretary of Defense Robert Gates about keeping his position in the new administration had already prompted loud complaints that keeping him on was not in keeping with his campaign’s mantra of change. His apparent preference to make Sen. Hillary Clinton his Secretary o... |
But nowhere in Obama’s “Team of Rivals” cabinet is any suggestion of an appointee less-hawkish than himself, meaning his increasingly tenuous claim to being an antiwar politician will serve as the base-line for his administration’s foreign policy, with his cabinet pulling it in ever more bellicose directions. |
Kelly Dougherty, executive director of Iraq Veterans Against the War complains that “Obama ran his campaign around the idea the war was not legitimate, but it sends a very different message when you bring in people who supported the war from the beginning. |
If you haven’t guessed by now or weren’t turned away by the lame pun, the Ecuadorian-bound Crocs are shoes, not reptiles. Crocs, the Colorado-based company, has teamed up with the Brother’s Brother Foundation and Children International to donate shoes to underprivileged children in Ecuador. The Crocs will protect the f... |
Luke Hingson, President of Brother's Brother Foundation, said, "We are delighted to make the second donation of Crocs to Children International. Part of our common belief is that children should be protected in the simplest ways and one way is to protect their feet from disease and the cold." |
Controversial, petroleum-based Crocs are made of croslite, a proprietary closed-cell resin. The shoes are billed as bacteriostatic, antimicrobial, ergonomic, odor resistant, lightweight and recyclable. They are, however, only recyclable through the Soles United Program. This program urges consumers to return their old ... |
According to the Soles United website, the next shipment of Crocs to the shoe-deprived will be through Wyclef Jean's Yéle Haiti foundation. Thousands of Crocs will be soon be headed back to the island nation of Haiti and onto the feet of its poorest residents. |
Thousands of Crocs have found the feet of poor children in Ecuador. For many Ecuadorian youngsters, these are the first Crocs they’ve ever seen. This isn't the first time that Crocs have gone for children's feet. |

Despite the New Hampshire Attorney General's Charitable Trust Unit reporting simply and clearly the reasons why Warren Mackensen's vote to make himself investment adviser of the town's $15-plus million trust fund was a conflict of interest, Mackensen says he won't resign from the board or concede he should give up the ... |
Trustee Chairman David Hamilton has indicated he plans to move to put management of the fund back out to bid. This would be a good first step in cleaning up this mess. |
In a letter that will run in Sunday's paper, Trustee William Hartley, who supported Mackensen's bid to become the trust fund's financial adviser, said he disagrees with attorney general's finding but won't fight it and will support the contract going out to bid. We don't care if Hartley holds his nose when he votes to ... |
Trustee Sandy Buck, in a letter to this paper earlier in the week, couldn't understand why the paper criticized his vote in support of turning over the funds to the care of someone who is also a trustee, or that it was a blatant conflict of interest for that same trustee, Mackensen, to vote to give that power to himsel... |
Every time Mackensen, Hartley and Buck speak they reveal their ignorance. If they had any sense they would acknowledge their mistake, fix it and move on. Instead they have been dragging out a fight they can't win, embarrassing themselves and the town of Hampton. We fully expect selectmen, the state attorney general and... |
"We believe that a conflict of interest exists for Warren Mackensen in his dual role as Trustee of the Trust Funds and principal of Mackensen & Company, which is now the investment advisor for the Hampton Trustees of the Trust Funds." |
"Mr. Mackensen is a founding member of National Advisors Trust Company and owns a fractional share interest in this company. While Mackensen & Company is not charging a fee for its services, National Advisors Trust Company does charge a fee for its services in placing certain trades. The estimate of this fee is that it... |
"The CTU believes that Mr. Mackensen faces a conflict of interest affecting his duty that cannot be waived. First, while Mackensen & Company is providing its services to Hampton at no cost, it is obtaining an indirect pecuniary benefit by marketing these services to other New Hampshire trustees of trust funds and using... |
"Second, and perhaps the clearer example, is that Mr. Mackensen is acting as both Trustee and investment advisor for the Hampton Trustees. In this situation, Mr. Mackensen owes divided loyalty — partially to his companies, Mackensen & Company and National Advisors Trust, and partially to the Town of Hampton. This divid... |
The reasons are many why this vote was a conflict. But the selectmen have shown good sense and we have confidence residents will vote Mackensen out in March if he refuses to resign before then. In the meantime we congratulate trustees Norman Silberdick and David Hamilton for having the good sense not to go along with t... |
NEW YORK (AP) Twitter suspended at least 58 million user accounts in the final three months of 2017, according to data obtained by The Associated Press. |
The figure highlights the company”s newly aggressive stance against malicious or suspicious accounts in the wake of Russian disinformation efforts during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign. |
The number of suspended accounts originated with Twitter”s “firehose,” a data stream it makes available to academics, companies and others willing to pay for it. |
Last week, Twitter confirmed it had suspended 70 million accounts in May and June. The huge number of suspensions raises questions as to whether the crackdown could affect Twitter”s user growth and whether the company should have warned investors earlier. |
In a column for the Financial Times, I advise the GOP to change its self-contradictory position on public borrowing before it makes an even bigger fool of itself. |
[H]ow do they retreat from their campaign positions [on fiscal policy] without being seen to climb down? My advice to them is simple: they cannot. The Republicans need to moderate their zeal to cut discretionary spending too much and too soon; they need to make the case for measured, long-term reform of Medicare and So... |
Kern County farmers and agricultural businesses have a unique tax incentive opportunity under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The 2017 tax reform law includes the Qualified Opportunity Zone program, which offers capital gain tax deferrals for qualifying investments in designated low-income communities. Kern County has sever... |
The QOZ program permits taxpayers to defer a portion of the capital gains tax on an investment that is sold or exchanged and then reinvested into a Qualified Opportunity Fund that invests in a qualifying business in a designated QOZ. The QO Fund is typically a corporation or partnership designed to invest in QOZ proper... |
First, investors must reinvest the capital gains proceeds from the initial investment sale into the QO Fund within 180 days of the initial sale or exchange of the investment. The QO Fund must invest a minimum of 90 percent of its funds into a QOZ property. QOZ stock and partnership interest qualify as QOZ property, as ... |
So long as the arrangement meets the program’s parameters, capital gains taxes are deferred. The deferral can last for as long as the taxpayer holds the qualifying investment or Dec. 31, 2026, whichever is earlier. There is no required holding period but the longer a taxpayer holds the QO Fund investment, the greater t... |
One of the most significant tax deferral opportunities arises if the taxpayer decides to hold the QO Fund investment for 10 years. During the sale of the investment that will be reinvested into a QO Fund, taxpayers can elect to have a basis in the QO Fund investment equal to its fair market value. The taxpayer could es... |
In its current form, the QOZ program is structured to reward those who invest early. A taxpayer who invests in a QO Fund on or before Dec. 31, 2018, who holds the investment for 10 years can exclude a portion of the preacquisition gain, while deferring the remaining preacquisition gain until Dec. 31, 2026, and exclude ... |

Reprieve came the way of one-time Lagos socialite, Mr. Fred Ajudua, on Friday as the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos set aside the decision of a Lagos High Court, which had denied the defendant bail in a fraud case preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). |
Ajudua is standing trial before Justice Oluwatoyin Ipaye of an Ikeja High Court over an $8.3m fraud allegation preferred against him by the EFCC. |
Justice Ipaye had refused Ajuduas bail application to seek medical treatment abroad on the ground of his antecedents in separate criminal matters before another Lagos State High Court where the defendant not only jumped bail but also allegedly interfered with the court process. |
Dissatisfied, Ajudua through his lawyer, Mr. Olalekan Ojo, appealed against the ruling and urged the appellate court to set it aside. |
But the Court of Appeal in its lead judgment delivered by Justice Rita Pemu on Friday held that Ajudua could only stand trial if preserved alive. |
The appellate court in judgment, which was unanimously adopted by Justices C.E Iyizoba and J.Y Tukur insisted that the charge made against Ajudua by the anti-graft agency did not attract capital punishment, hence it was a bailable offence. |
The court observed from the medical report presented at the lower court that Ajudua had been a patient at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital for kidney related illness since as far back as 1987. |
“He was already a sick man at the time the charge was filed against him. The lower court turned a blind eye on the plight of the appellant. |
“A man with just one kidney is a walking carcass. Although his reputation is found wanting, he has not been convicted. The court ought to show mercy as a result of his health challenges,†Justice Pemu held. |
On the claim by the EFCC that Ajudua would interfere with witnesses, Justice Pemu held that the anti-graft agency failed to show any calculated attempt made by the appellant to do so. |
The court therefore granted Ajudua bail in the sum of N10m with two sureties in like sum. |
The sureties, according to the court must have property worth N50 million in Lagos. |
Justice Pemu also directed that Ajudua should sign an undertaking that he would remain in Nigeria throughout his trial, unless there was need for him to travel abroad for treatment. |
The appellate court, however, dismissed Ajuduas appeal marked CA/L/693A on the refusal of the lower court to allow him make extra-judicial statement in response to the allegations levelled against him. |
Justice Pemu affirmed the decision of the lower court on the ground that Ajudua was given the opportunity to make statements but he chose not to do so. |
"It is the appellants constitutional right but he chose to waive it. The court cannot teach the Police how to carry out its investigation. The court cannot also force defendant to make statement, Justice Pemu held. |
KINETIC ENERGY GENERATING SYSTEM (KEGS) OBJECTIVE OVERVIEW: To create an electric vehicle which has the capacity to provide motive force in the absence of any external power supply. |
Potential +/- Difference Inc. Regenerative Acceleration Generator Proof of Concept Project and Industry Player Sponsorship Financing Invitation. |
As you already know by now the Regenerative Acceleration Generator (RM) coils create ACCELERATION when a load is applied http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGvOBDCh7sA This fact is no secret and has been well established and documented at MIT and the University of Ottawa hundreds of times since 2008. The greater the load -... |
This principle will be employed by PDI to create a bicycle trailer that will house a RM generator and the on-load generator created accelerative torque will be designed to exceed the torque produced by the bicycle rider and the bike and trailer will accelerate down the road with NO ADDITIONAL RIDER INPUT ENERGY or any ... |
1) Mount a three rotor 20 pole Axial Flux generator on the bike trailer shown below. |
2) Design the generator coils to produce acceleration at 10 - 15 km/hr. |
3) At the required operating speed the generator coils will all be maximally loaded creating the maximum accelerative torque. |
4) The torque supplied by the generator will be designed to exceed the required steady state speed torque and the system will accelerate WITHOUT bike rider assistance. |
1) The RM must create enough torque to overcome all resistive forces and self-propell itself. |
2) Rotor magnet strength will be increased if required. |
3) The RM acceleration must be sustainable with no excessive coil or core heating problems. |

The thirst is real for someone who clearly has a thing for Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen. |
Instagram, which has slowly become the thirstiest of all social media platforms, has developed a new function in the stories portion of their app that allows people to ask random questions to whomever they follow. |
Andy, who has been a king of sorts when it comes to asking celebrities awkward and very uncomfortable questions, had the tables turned on him when he answered a variety of Q's while waiting at an airport on Monday. |
Inevitably, the questions were going to get dirty (as they have been for many other people who use Instagram), and one follower dared to ask the question that many have wondered: "Have you measured it?" |
Not sure if that gives a clue about what his package is really like, as he's truthfully giving a response that many celebs usually give him after he asks some jaw-dropping questions (cue the "lady pond" one he asked to Oprah Winfrey many years back). |
Enjoy the taste of your medicine, Andy… wink wink. |
