Police Abuse and Misconduct Against Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender People in the U.S
United States of America Stonewalled : Police abuse and misconduct against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in the U.S. 1. Introduction In August 2002, Kelly McAllister, a white transgender woman, was arrested in Sacramento, California. Sacramento County Sheriff’s deputies ordered McAllister from her truck and when she refused, she was pulled from the truck and thrown to the ground. Then, the deputies allegedly began beating her. McAllister reports that the deputies pepper-sprayed her, hog-tied her with handcuffs on her wrists and ankles, and dragged her across the hot pavement. Still hog-tied, McAllister was then placed in the back seat of the Sheriff’s patrol car. McAllister made multiple requests to use the restroom, which deputies refused, responding by stating, “That’s why we have the plastic seats in the back of the police car.” McAllister was left in the back seat until she defecated in her clothing. While being held in detention at the Sacramento County Main Jail, officers placed McAllister in a bare basement holding cell. When McAllister complained about the freezing conditions, guards reportedly threatened to strip her naked and strap her into the “restraint chair”1 as a punitive measure. Later, guards placed McAllister in a cell with a male inmate. McAllister reports that he repeatedly struck, choked and bit her, and proceeded to rape her. McAllister sought medical treatment for injuries received from the rape, including a bleeding anus. After a medical examination, she was transported back to the main jail where she was again reportedly subjected to threats of further attacks by male inmates and taunted by the Sheriff’s staff with accusations that she enjoyed being the victim of a sexual assault.2 Reportedly, McAllister attempted to commit suicide twice. -

The Rogue Pilot Phenomenon
Thomas Anthony Director, Aviation Safety and Security Program University of Southern California Human Factors in extremis The Rogue Pilot Phenomenon The Germanwings crash has brought the rogue pilot to review several of the cases that fall into the rogue phenomenon to the front and center of aviation safety pilot/intentional crashing category. Precedents provide attention. Unlike other aircraft accidents which may be context. Also necessary is a clear understanding of the resolved by evidence at the accident site, the rogue pilot terms that may apply to these types of cases. Finally, this investigation takes the investigator into non-traditional paper will examine the rogue pilot/intentional crashing areas of inquiry. Specifically, it will take the investigator phenomenon from two complementary perspectives. into the personal and often private life of the flight crew. First, as a crime that takes place within an aviation While accident investigators have adeptly addressed the context; and second, as a human factors/psychological issue of Human Factors via the lens of Crew Resource mishap that has profound aviation safety repercussions. Management (CRM), Threat and Error Management (TEM) and Human Factors Analysis and Classification I am not a psychologist. I am however an investigator (HFACS) for decades, the issue of the intentional crashing who dedicated 18 years of my FAA/TSA career to the of an aircraft by the pilot remains largely a dark corner of investigation and mitigation of unlawful acts against ignorance. The purpose of this paper is to focus the light civil aviation. Unlawful implies intentional. Unlawful and of understanding onto this issue so that we can take a intentional are two of the elements of the rogue pilot confident step forward in accident investigation. -
Predicting Accident Rates from GA Pilot Total Flight Hours

Abstract In his 2001 book, The Killing Zone, Paul Craig presented evidence that general aviation (GA) pilot fatalities are related to relative flight experience (total flight hours, or TFH). We therefore ask if there is a range of TFH over which GA pilots are at greatest risk? More broadly, can we predict pilot accident rates, given TFH? Many researchers implicitly assume that GA accident rates are a linear function of TFH when, in fact, that relation appears nonlinear. -
BREAKING BAD by Vince Gilligan
BREAKING BAD by Vince Gilligan 5/27/05 AMC Sony Pictures Television TEASER EXT. COW PASTURE - DAY Deep blue sky overhead. Fat, scuddy clouds. Below them, black and white cows graze the rolling hills. This could be one of those California "It's The Cheese" commercials. Except those commercials don't normally focus on cow shit. We do. TILT DOWN to a fat, round PATTY drying olive drab in the sun. Flies buzz. Peaceful and quiet. until ••• ZOOOM! WHEELS plow right through the shit with a SPLAT. NEW ANGLE - AN RV Is speeding smack-dab through the pasture, no road in sight. A bit out of place, to say the least. It's an old 70's era Winnebago with chalky white paint and Bondo spots. A bumper sticker for the Good Sam Club is stuck to the back. The Winnebago galumphs across the landscape, scattering cows. It catches a wheel and sprays a rooster tail of red dirt. INT. WINNEBAGO - DAY Inside, the DRIVER's knuckles cling white to the wheel. He's got the pedal flat. Scared, breathing fast. His eyes bug wide behind the faceplate of his gas mask. Oh, by the way, he's wearing a GAS MASK. That, and white jockey UNDERPANTS. Nothing else. Buckled in the seat beside him lolls a clothed PASSENGER, also wearing a gas mask. Blood streaks down from his ear, blotting his T-shirt. He's passed out cold. Behind them, the interior is a wreck. Beakers and buckets and flasks -- some kind of ad-hoc CHEMICAL LAB -- spill their noxious contents with every bump we hit. -
Terence Winter Revisited Series Boardwalk Empire Were Esurprised to Learn That It Would Be Shortened from Its Initially Proposed Run of Seven Seasons to five
85 EDGE inte rview arlier this year, fans of the New Jersey-based HBO Terence Winter Revisited series Boardwalk Empire were Esurprised to learn that it would be shortened from its initially proposed run of seven seasons to five. Editor at Large Tracey Smith , who interviewed series creator Terence Winter for EDGE in 2013, doubled back this fall to get his take on the Nucky Thompson experience, find out what¹s coming next, and talk a bit more about what keeps his creative juices flowing. EDGE: Shortening this series to five seasons was a big decision. How did that conversation go between you and fellow executive producer Howard Korder? TW: Somewhere around the middle of Season 4, Howard and I looked at each other and said, “I get the feeling that we’re kind of headed toward a conclusion here.” It was completely inadvertent in our storytelling, but we felt like if we were listening to Nucky and what he was saying and where he was taking us, that he was trying desperately to get out of this business o B h and to wind down. The more we / y a l o talked about it, the more we said, p . B l “Yeah, we don’t have a whole lot more l a c a to explore with this character.” We m y b didn’t want to just milk it, and the last o t o h thing we want to do is to become p VISIT US ON THE WEB www.edgemagonline.com 86 INTERVIEW repetitive. We’re EDGE: Give me the two highlights that stand out for you lucky enough to personally on this project? not be in a situation where, TW: One would be Martin Scorsese becoming involved— like network TV, getting to work alongside my cinematic hero, who was for example, you the reason I got into this business in the first place. -
