Law Enforcement Executive Forum • 2004 • 4(1) Editorial Qing Chang, a 25-year-old Chicago resident, began the new year of 2003 with brilliance and promise. She held a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Peking University in China, a master’s degree in chemistry from the University of Chicago and a second master’s degree in computer science from the University of Illinois. She maintained a perfect grade point average throughout her academic career. Qing had just accepted a work assignment with Thoughtworks as a Computer Programmer and was planning to relocate with her husband to London. Qing Chang was pregnant with her first child. On January 2, 2003, at 6:05 PM, Chang was standing on a street corner in downtown Chicago and was struck and killed by a get away car whose occupants were being pursued by police for stealing a wallet. Her small lifeless body was thrown 40 feet. As tragic, unfortunate, and remarkable as this true-life scenario seems, it could be recounted hundreds of times over with equally tragic results surrounding police pursuits and the loss of innocent life. Despite considerable work to develop policy and guidelines to restrict police pursuits, tragic events such as the one cited above continue to occur. We must ask, “Why?” For example, since 1993, the State of Illinois has issued statewide Model Policy and Guidelines on Police Pursuits and has reviewed and updated them annually, and, nevertheless, innocent people continue to die. The collection of articles contained in this issue of the Forum represent current research and thought from practitioners and scholars addressing the troublesome public policy issue of police pursuit. While police administrators throughout the nation take steps to implement policy and operational procedures to restrict police chases, state legislatures throughout the country must concurrently enact laws to increase the penalties and consequences for citizens who would attempt to flee the police, to include such penalties as vehicle forfeiture. The loss of Qing Chang, her child, and the potential of their lives cannot be underestimated and/or justified. While the police should not be held accountable for initiating the event that led to the death of Qing Chang and her child, the police must nevertheless account for their actions in making the decision to pursue.

Jurkanin, PhD Executive Director Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board Law Enforcement Executive Forum • 2004 • 4(1) i ii Law Enforcement Executive Forum • 2004 • 4(1) The Decision to Chase: Revisiting Police Pursuits and the Appropriateness of Action Michael D. Lyman, Professor of Criminal Justice, Columbia College of Missouri Introduction No one disputes the dangers of police work, nor does conventional wisdom challenge the simple fact that there are dangerous, irresponsible, and mentally unstable persons operating motor vehicles. As the varied duties of police officers in the 21st century are considered, it is prudent to try to identify general rules that might apply to each of the many dangerous duties of police officers. Many national standards as well as statutes have attempted to do just that, but much is left up to the discretion of each officer in each circumstance. While discretion is important in police work, poor decisions can and are often made by otherwise honest, well- meaning police officers. The traditional dilemma associated with high-speed police pursuit of fleeing suspects, the subject matter of this article, is deciding whether the benefits of potential apprehension outweigh the risks of endangering police officers, the public, and suspects in the chase. On the one hand, too many restrictions placed on police use of pursuit could place the public at risk from dangerous individuals

  • Bullitt, Blow-Up, & Other Dynamite Movie Posters of the 20Th Century
    1632 MARKET STREET SAN FRANCISCO 94102 415 347 8366 TEL For immediate release Bullitt, Blow-Up, & Other Dynamite Movie Posters of the 20th Century Curated by Ralph DeLuca July 21 – September 24, 2016 FraenkelLAB 1632 Market Street FraenkelLAB is pleased to present Bullitt, Blow-Up, & Other Dynamite Movie Posters of the 20th Century, curated by Ralph DeLuca, from July 21 through September 24, 2016. Beginning with the earliest public screenings of films in the 1890s and throughout the 20th century, the design of eye-grabbing posters played a key role in attracting moviegoers. Bullitt, Blow-Up, & Other Dynamite Movie Posters at FraenkelLAB focuses on seldom-exhibited posters that incorporate photography to dramatize a variety of film genres, from Hollywood thrillers and musicals to influential and experimental films of the 1960s-1990s. Among the highlights of the exhibition are striking and inventive posters from the mid-20th century, including the classic films Gilda, Niagara, The Searchers, and All About Eve; Alfred Hitchcock’s Notorious, Rear Window, and Psycho; and B movies Cover Girl Killer, Captive Wild Woman, and Girl with an Itch. On view will be many significant posters from the 1960s, such as Russ Meyer’s cult exploitation film Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!; Michelangelo Antonioni’s Blow-Up; a 1968 poster for the first theatrical release of Un Chien Andalou (Dir. Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, 1928); and a vintage Japanese poster for Buñuel’s Belle de Jour. The exhibition also features sensational posters for popular movies set in San Francisco: the 1947 film noir Dark Passage (starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall); Steve McQueen as Bullitt (1968); and Clint Eastwood as Dirty Harry (1971).

  • Honorable Members of the Visual Arts Committee From
    STAFF REPORT Date: February 13, 2012 To: Honorable Members of the Visual Arts Committee From: Mary Chou Re: Art on Market Street During the August 2011 Visual Arts Committee meeting, Commissioners approved Christina Empedocles’s proposal for an Art on Market Street poster series, but asked the artist to consider movies that spanned a variety of genres and to include more contemporary films. The original list consisted of the following: The Birds (1963), The Maltese Falcon (1941), Harold and Maude (1971), Vertigo (1958), Escape from Alcatraz (1979), Bullitt (1968), and Dirty Harry (1971). Below is a description of the artist’s explanation for her primary list of movies for her poster series, and her secondary list, if she is unable to secure permissions for movies in the primary list. Description of Poster Series With this primary list of films for the Art on Market Street poster series, the goal was to narrow down and select a list of movies from several different decades and a host of different genres, including major motion pictures as well as independent films, each with one thing in common: they'd be the best movies of their respective eras and genres to feature San Francisco itself as a prominent character. The images created from the following six classic motion pictures would include a poster from the film, as well as a collage of key visual elements associated with that film, and should be instantly recognizable to just about any longtime City resident, film buff, or keen-eyed observer. These visual elements would be extensions of the components of the posters, comprised of key props, characters (dependent on permission), and possibly quotes, bits of map, or small shots of various locations.

    ACES WILD ACES WILD The Story of the British Grand Prix THE STORY OF THE Peter Miller Motor racing is one of the most 10. 3. BRITISH GRAND PRIX exacting and dangerous sports in the world today. And Grand Prix racing for Formula 1 single-seater cars is the RIX GREATS toughest of them all. The ultimate ambition of every racing driver since 1950, when the com­ petition was first introduced, has been to be crowned as 'World Cham­ pion'. In this, his fourth book, author Peter Miller looks into the back­ ground of just one of the annual qualifying rounds-the British Grand Prix-which go to make up the elusive title. Although by no means the oldest motor race on the English sporting calendar, the British Grand Prix has become recognised as an epic and invariably dramatic event, since its inception at Silverstone, Northants, on October 2nd, 1948. Since gaining World Championship status in May, 1950 — it was in fact the very first event in the Drivers' Championships of the W orld-this race has captured the interest not only of racing enthusiasts, LOONS but also of the man in the street. It has been said that the supreme test of the courage, skill and virtuosity of a Grand Prix driver is to w in the Monaco Grand Prix through the narrow streets of Monte Carlo and the German Grand Prix at the notorious Nürburgring. Both of these gruelling circuits cer­ tainly stretch a driver's reflexes to the limit and the winner of these classic events is assured of his rightful place in racing history.

  • Bob and Pat Bondurant's Fast-Paced Home
    The Home Page: Bob and Pat Bondurant’s Fast-Paced Home Written by David M. Brown Bob and Pat Bondurant are always on the move. So is their Paradise Valley home. A circular drive invites friends, family and former racing associates into the eucalyptus- and citrus-shaded home of the legendary race driver and founder of the world-famous Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving. Built on two-plus acres in 1984 by Hermosa Homes, with design by David Ross, both Scottsdale, the 7,880-square-foot five-bedroom custom Santa Barbara was renovated in 2002, with new interior design by Ernesto Garcia, ASID, Phoenix. Throughout the home are photographs and automotive memories of Sebring, Daytona, Le Mans, Laguna Seca, the old Riverside International Raceway and Grand Prixs at Watkins Glen, New York, Italy, Germany, Mexico, Belgium, France and Monaco, where the Bondurants married in May 2010. Many of these tracks Bob last raced on more than four decades ago when, as a member of the Shelby American Racing Team, he helped win the1965 Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile World Manufacturer’s Championship — the first and still only Americans to win that prestigious title. And, they did it against Enzo Ferrari’s “unbeatable” GTOs. Recently, Pat and Bob invited us in for a tour of the home and the automotive and personal histories it celebrates. “Our home joins both of our worlds, like a powerful engine in an intelligently, beautifully designed car,” Bob says. “We have the memories of the lives we had before we met, and we have brought them together to celebrate the business, the life and love we now share.
