Though this was not my home church, I felt like I had walked into a family gathering–a really good one–and I was immediately enveloped into their home. Songs were sang sincerely and we felt connect
Why Aren't We Growing?
In his seminar notes, "How to Break the 200 Barrier," C. Peter Wagner mentions 5 institutional factors that keep a church under 200. Let's unpack his list… 1. The desire to preserve social intimacy One of the great strengths of the smaller church is the close relationships that form. Church becomes a place where "everybody
The Bible tells us that God "remembers that we are dust" (Psalm 103:14). Unfortunately, many of us forget. Pastors and church leaders can be among the worst workaholics you'll ever meet. Maybe this condition is due to the fact that the ministry to-do list is never done. Maybe the core cause is the leader's insecurity
A Vision That Works
There's little doubt that the idea of vision has been an organizational buzzword over the past couple of decades. Companies plaster statements on their walls in an effort to communicate the "why" of their work, thus motivating employees to give their best to "the cause." Good organizations stay focused on that cause. They know why

This event will be broadcast as a Youtube Live Event. I will be in Budapest Hungary with Carolyn Winter in Toronto as the proxy (and techy person) . Please join us for a repatterning to help send energy of compassion to these refugees. – Jennifer Johnson
**Our broadcast was delayed, and despite a couple of techy glitches did go ahead! Here is the recording.
November 16th, 2015 Resonate with Compassion for Refugees in Europe by Jennifer Lucky Johnson
In mid-November of this year I will be visiting family in Budapest, Hungary which has been a focal point of the Syrian refugee crises. The images in the news of thousands of people and families with small children fleeing their homeland in search of a better and safer life for themselves and their loved ones tear at our hearts. The newscasts also show images of brutal attempts to keep them from entering Hungary or neighboring countries even while there are those who attempt to offer support and compassionate understanding. The situation in Syria is only one part of the world where refugees are fleeing for their lives looking for safety and shelter.
There are people who long to find compassionate responses to the multiple needs of refugees throughout the world and there are those who see a need for protection from perceived or real threats to their own personal security or safety. There are no easy answers to this humanitarian crisis but we do know that this crisis impacts each of us because we live in a world that is interrelated and interconnected on all levels.
'We're trying to live a different value system while asking for things to change. What's most important is that every connection along the line mirrors the kind of world we are trying to create. Each step needs to reflect energetically what we're after, which is a holographic image of the quality of relationships we are trying to create." Marshall B. Rosenberg
This World Peace Hologram (WPH) is dedicated to "those who suffer yet have the courage to hope or ask for help and have faith that humanity will respond…" (from the WPH workbook)
Complete the form below to be included in this repatterning and obtain the Youtube link for the event or recording. The session will be done (crossing fingers!) via a YouTube live event from Hungary with practitioner and RPA Prez, Carolyn Winter assisting me.

This is a case that is important to me. The reason is, that it is/was my case. I first got a phone call from Brian Sawyer's family in September of 2010 that he was taken from his jail cell, in his orange jumpsuit, and hauled before a criminal grand jury in Wood County, West Virginia (Parkersburg). He was taken there (again in an orange jumpsuit and shackles) not as a suspect, but as a witness and an alleged victim of a civil rights violation. The grand jury was examining "evidence" in order to make a decision on whether a Wood County, West Virginia deputy had committed a crime when he used force against Brian during his arrest processing.
Brian complained following his arrest processing that he was beaten. The video surveillance footage, which captured the incident, was saved by a jail officer and examined by another deputy. This deputy apparently believed the video showed an excessive use of force and took it to his superiors. The superiors disagreed. The video was ultimately sent to the elected county prosecutor for submission to a grand jury.
At the grand jury, the jurors were first shown the video. Then, Brian Sawyer was brought from jail in his jumpsuit and shackles and put blindly in front of the jurors. He had not been questioned, nor prepped in any way, by the prosecutor. The prosecutor was supposedly presenting evidence and seeking an indictment. However, the prosecutor began to question Brian on his criminal history, and began impeaching his credibility and memory even before asking him to explain what had happened. After Brian had told his story, the prosecutor pointed out that he had been intoxicated that night, so his memory probably wasn't reliable.
Next the sheriff himself testified before the jurors. He told the jurors that he didn't see any problem with Deputy Asbury's conduct as portrayed in the video – that he himself had done something similar during his career and received a commendation for it. The original deputy who examined the surveillance footage was not called to testify. The jurors took the hints and returned with a "no true bill" – in other words, they did not return an indictment. This is commonly used to exonerate police officers involved with uses of force – especially shooting cases. As in other cases, this decision by the grand jury was touted in the media as having concluded that Deputy Asbury acted appropriately. They did not disclose the fact that only biased evidence was presented to the grand jury. We only know what happened in this situation because Deputy Asbury's lawyer in the subsequent civil case obtained the grand jury transcript on the day prior to trial and provided it to us.
In any event, following Mr. Sawyer's family being informed about the grand jury incident, they called me. I immediately drove up to the regional jail where Brian was being held, and met with him. I had no idea at that time that the case would be a long, long road. But, to make a long story short, we filed a federal lawsuit, which eventually was tried before a jury. The jury unfortunately ruled against us after three hours of deliberation.
Miraculously, a short time later, the federal judge who presided over the trial granted our post-trial motion for judgment as a matter of law, throwing out the jury verdict and ordering judgment in our favor. Procedurally, this then scheduled another jury trial to be held solely on the issue of damages. In other words, it is already established that there was a civil rights violation, and now how much money should be awarded to Mr. Sawyer. During the trial on damages, we entered a settlement agreement. The settlement agreement, which was reached in the judge's chambers, contained a high/low amount to be awarded to Mr. Sawyer. The low amount would be awarded immediately, while the high amount was still in contention. The defense would have the ability to appeal the order throwing out the jury verdict to the Fourth Circuit. If they won, Brian would not get the high amount. If they lost and we won the appeal, Brian would get the high amount within thirty days of the ruling. Well, it was a long road, and one year later, after briefing the case extensively and oral arguments in Richmond, the Fourth Circuit returned with an opinion in our favor in August of 2013.
You can read the Court's opinion here.
You can listen to the oral arguments here.
Since I know the facts so well, I don't want to include anything that was not mentioned by the Fourth Circuit in their opinion. Specifically, they found that the following occurred:
The evidence showed that Deputy Asbury proceeded to Sawyer's home on October 29, 2009, in response to a domestic disturbance call from Sawyer's girlfriend. Sawyer admitted that before his arrest he had consumed "a couple Klonopin" and "a couple beers." JA 115-16. While Deputy Asbury was placing Sawyer under arrest, Sawyer attempted to kick Asbury. But, Asbury "saw the kick coming" and avoided it. As a result, Sawyer struck the door of the residence. JA 208.
After Asbury arrested Sawyer, Asbury put Sawyer into his police vehicle and drove him to the detention center. Both Sawyer and Asbury testified that, during the drive to the detention center, Sawyer was "running [his] mouth" to Asbury. JA 118 (Sawyer); JA 171 (Asbury). For example, Sawyer told Asbury that Asbury "was a tough guy because he put his hands on someone while they're cuffed"; claimed that Sawyer "knew where [Asbury] lived"; stated that Sawyer was "going to kick [Asbury's] ass"; and asked Asbury if "he ever wonder[s] what his wife's doing while he's out working these late hours." JA 118-19 (Sawyer); JA 171 (Asbury).6 The parties agree that Sawyer's stream of invective continued as Sawyer proceeded into the detention center. They also agree, however, that Sawyer did not engage in any physical misconduct, such as kicking, spitting, rocking the police vehicle, or physically resisting the deputies' directives.
As reflected on the video and as described in the trial testimony, the deputies escorted Sawyer, in handcuffs, into the processing room at the detention center. Once inside, Sawyer complied with Sgt. Kearns' directive to sit on a cement bench attached to the wall. Sawyer was then instructed to stand so that Deputy Asbury could remove his handcuffs. Again, Sawyer complied. Thereafter, Asbury directed Sawyer to face the wall and place his hands on it, so that Asbury could perform a pat-down. Sawyer complied, and Deputy Asbury conducted the pat-down. During these events, Sawyer continued his invective against Asbury, although Asbury conceded that Sawyer's demeanor was "diminished" from the hostility he displayed in the police vehicle. JA 174.
The video shows that, during the pat-down, Sawyer turned his head to look back at Asbury and to speak to him, but kept his hands on the wall. All three deputies characterized Sawyer's action in turning his head as a "target glance," which the deputies described from their training and experience as a "danger cue," indicating (in Sgt. Kearns' description) that the suspect is "looking back to see the position of the officer, or what the officer might have, or what the officer's doing in preparation for some kind of an act against the officer." JA 206; see also JA 229; JA 255. Nevertheless, Sawyer did not take any physically aggressive action toward the deputies. And, despite the "target glance," the deputies did not place Sawyer back in handcuffs.
After Asbury completed the frisk, Sawyer again sat on the cement bench. JA 176. However, Sawyer crossed his legs and arms, a posture that Asbury and Sgt. Kearns both regarded as "defiant." JA 176; JA 229. It is undisputed, and readily apparent from the video, that while Sawyer was seated on the bench and Asbury stood directly in front of him, the two engaged in a heated verbal argument for about thirty seconds. The other deputies observed the events from a distance of a few feet.
Sawyer and Asbury were gesticulating with their hands, and both admitted that they were using "abrasive" and inappropriate language. JA 179. Asbury claimed that during this exchange he told Sawyer, three times, to stand so that he could be fingerprinted and photographed, but Sawyer did not do so, instead sitting back with his arms and legs crossed. Asbury is seen on the video pointing repeatedly with his right hand at his own left chest, in the area of his badge. The parties agree that around this time, Sawyer stated that he would "take [Asbury's] badge off [his] chest and shove it up [his] ass." JA 178.
At this point, the video shows that Deputy Asbury lunged at Sawyer, who was still seated. With his left hand, Asbury grabbed Sawyer's right arm, which was in mid-gesture. With his right hand, Asbury seized Sawyer by the throat, and forced him back against the wall, pushing back and upward on Sawyer's neck.
Although the video indisputably shows that Asbury seized Sawyer by the neck, Asbury denied placing his hands on Sawyer's neck. JA 183. Instead, he claimed that he "placed [his] hand upon [Sawyer's] chest in the upper chest area." Id. On cross-examination, Asbury acknowledged that he had testified at his deposition that he placed his hand on Sawyer's "upper chest and throat area." JA 186.
Sgt. Kearns and Lt. Massey both testified that Asbury seized Sawyer by the neck. But, they claimed that Asbury was attempting to use "pressure point control tactics" on Sawyer's neck, and denied that Asbury was "choking" Sawyer. JA 232 (Kearns); see also JA 259 (Massey). Notably, Asbury did not testify that he attempted to use a pressure point control tactic on Sawyer at any time during the incident.
Sgt. Kearns believed the "pressure point" had "to do with a thumb up along the jawbone by the ear, something in that area." JA 232. He described the pressure point control tactic as "a pain compliance technique" and stated: "[W]hen someone has that on you it's causing pain and you try to get away from it." JA 232. But, Kearns denied that the purpose of such a technique is to cause pain or injury, explaining: "[I]t's in an effort to get them to do what you want them to do. You — you apply the pressure to cause pain and you must tell them what to do; and when they comply, then you stop." JA 233. However, he could not recall whether Asbury told Sawyer what to do while applying the pressure point tactic. Id.
The video indicates that, after Asbury lunged at Sawyer and seized him by the throat, Sgt. Kearns and Lt. Massey walked to either side of Asbury and Sawyer. Asbury drew his hand back as if to strike Sawyer, but what he did with his hand is not captured on the video, because the video skips at that point. A moment later, however, the video clearly shows that Asbury drew his fist back a second time and struck Sawyer in the face. Nevertheless, Asbury testified that he "did not punch Mr. Sawyer," JA 105, and "did not strike him." JA 106. The other two deputies also denied that Asbury hit Sawyer. See JA 245-46 (Kearns); JA 266 (Massey). Lt. Massey testified that he believed that what appears to be a punch on the video was another instance of Asbury attempting to touch a "pressure point" behind Sawyer's ear. JA 266.
According to the video, Asbury then grabbed Sawyer by the neck, and the other two deputies laid hands upon Sawyer's extremities. Sawyer's head and body rose higher.7 After another moment, Sawyer's head and body rose above the deputies' heads. During this entire time, Asbury was holding Sawyer by the throat. Thereafter, the deputies pulled Sawyer to the ground. It is clear from the video, as well as from the testimony of Sawyer and Asbury, that Sawyer's face did not strike the ground when the deputies pulled him down. See JA 132 (Sawyer); JA 190 (Asbury). Sawyer was face-down and the upper half of his body was behind a corner and hidden from the view of the camera. Deputy Asbury also was not visible to the video camera, although the other deputies, who were grabbing and striking Sawyer in the arms and legs, were visible. The deputies proceeded to restrain Sawyer. At trial, Sawyer claimed that Asbury punched him repeatedly in the head while he was on the ground; Asbury denied it. The video cannot resolve the dispute as to that portion of the incident.
The video and the trial testimony showed that, after restraining Sawyer on the ground for several seconds, and placing him in handcuffs, the deputies left Sawyer handcuffed and face down on the ground. As the deputies proceeded to other business, Sawyer remained unattended on the ground for several minutes. Eventually, Sawyer pulled himself to a seated position, reclining against the wall. See JA 136-38; JA 193-94; JA 249-251; JA 273-74.
Sawyer was bleeding from the nose, see JA 192; JA 273, and at some point he asked to be taken to the hospital. JA 138. Asbury transported Sawyer to the emergency room, where Sawyer was diagnosed with a broken nose, along with bruising to his face and extremities. Plaintiff's hospital records and the medical bill were entered into evidence, along with photographs of Sawyer that depicted his injuries. JA 145.
The opinion noted the reasoning of the District Court in throwing out the jury verdict and ruling in Mr. Sawyer's favor:
"In granting Sawyer's renewed motion for judgment as to liability and a new trial as to damages, the district court stated, in relevant part, id. at 738, 745-46 (internal citations and emphasis omitted):"
[T]he jury did what they thought was right but simply got it wrong . . . but that is what judges are for.
* * *
The video indisputably captures Deputy Asbury's excessive use of force on Mr. Sawyer at the Wood County holding center. I have incorporated a part of the videotape that was introduced at trial in this order so that all may see that the jury did not have a legally sufficient evidentiary basis to find for Deputy Asbury on the issue of liability.
* * *
While courts are not to simply rubber stamp a jury's verdict, judges believe that judgment as a matter of law is a power to be applied sparingly and only in the most extraordinary circumstances. No weighing of the evidence or credibility determinations are permitted. I made none.
What the video shows cannot be reconciled with the jury's verdict. The video shows Deputy Asbury grabbing the plaintiff by the throat. The video shows Deputy Asbury punching the plaintiff in the face with his fist. The video shows the officers leaving an injured Mr. Sawyer lying on the holding center floor.
Mr. Sawyer walked into the holding center uninjured, and he left with a fractured nose and battered face. While Mr. Sawyer's verbal threats against Deputy Asbury were disgusting, they were still only words, and a pretrial detainee's words do not justify an officer's use of such force.
I find that no reasonable jury was at liberty to disregard the video evidence showing Deputy Asbury choking and punching Mr. Sawyer for no purpose other than inflicting unnecessary and wanton pain and suffering. I find that Deputy Asbury thereby violated Mr. Sawyer's right under the Due Process Clause to be free from excessive force while in pretrial detention.
The Court commented that the existence of video footage was crucial:
The lens of the video camera played a key role in the district court's decision, as it does here. The video clearly shows that, at least once, Asbury struck Sawyer in the face while two deputies began to hold him. Under binding Supreme Court precedent, the video recording of the incident operated as a legal constraint on the fact finding of the jury.
In Scott v. Harris, 550 U.S. 372 (2007), the Supreme Court held that, when "opposing parties tell two different stories, one of which is blatantly contradicted" by video evidence contained in the record, "so that no reasonable jury could believe it, a court should not adopt that version of the facts . . . ." Id. at 380. Rather than relying on "visible fiction" propounded by the party whose account is contradicted by the video evidence, a court should "view[ ] the facts in the light depicted by the videotape." Id. at 381.
As we explained in Witt v. West Virginia State Police, Troop 2, 633 F.3d 272 (4th Cir. 2011), the principle articulated in Scott does not license a court to reject one side's account as a matter of law if the "documentary evidence, such as a video," merely "offers some support for [the other side's] version of events." Witt, 633 F.3d at 276 (emphasis in original). Rather, the video controls only where it "'blatantly contradict[s]'" one side's testimonial account. Id. (quoting Scott, 550 U.S. at 380). Nevertheless, "[i]ncontrovertible evi-dence relied on by the moving party, such as a relevant videotape whose accuracy is unchallenged, should be credited by the court" when resolving a motion for judgment as a matter of law, "if it so utterly discredits the opposing party's version that no reasonable juror could fail to believe the version advanced by the moving party." Zellner v. Summerlin, 494 F.3d 344, 371 (2d Cir. 2007) (applying Scott in context of motion for judgment as a matter of law).
The Court ultimately held that "[a] review of applicable case law under § 1983 leaves no doubt that the district judge did not err in concluding that the video irrefutably established that Asbury engaged in the use of excessive force when he struck Sawyer in the face." Supporting this holding, the Court cited a prior case which was discussed in the briefs and at oral arguments:
In Orem v. Rephann, supra, 523 F.3d 442, while police officers were transporting a handcuffed arrestee to jail, the arrestee "yelled, cursed and banged her head against the police car window . . . . Her jumping and banging around in the back of the vehicle was so intense that the vehicle rocked." Id. An officer opened the door of the vehicle and repeatedly instructed the arrestee to "'calm down'" and to "'[s]top it,'" and admonished the arrestee "to respect" the officers. Id. The arrestee directed profanity at the officer, who stated, "'I'm telling you, you'd better stop it,'" and then "shocked [the arrestee] twice with a taser gun — underneath her left breast and on her inner thigh." Id. at 445. At the time, the arrestee was in handcuffs and foot restraints. Id. at 443. The district court denied summary judgment to the officer on the arrestee's Fourteenth Amendment excessive force claim, and we affirmed.
This Court rejected the officer's claim that "his use of the taser gun was not excessive because [the arrestee] was unruly and uncooperative." Id. at 446. Although we acknowledged that "some action was necessary to calm [the arrestee] and safely transport her," we concluded that, in the light most favorable to the arrestee, the officer's "actions were not a 'good faith effort to restore order' but, rather, wanton and unnecessary." Id. This conclusion was based on several factors, including that the arrestee "was handcuffed, weighed about 100 pounds, . . . and was locked in the back seat cage of [a police] car,"; that the officer tasered the arrestee immediately after she used profanity toward him; that the officer applied the taser to sensitive body areas; and, "after shocking" the arrestee, the officer "commanded that she respect the officers." Id. at 447.
The Court also cited the Cobb case:
United States v. Cobb, 905 F.2d 784 (4th Cir. 1990), is also instructive. There, four law enforcement officers were criminally prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. § 242 ("the criminal analog of 42 U.S.C. § 1983," id. at 788 n.6), for their use of excessive force against a detainee who was being held in a booking room after his arrest for public intoxication. Id. at 785. The detainee "and the officers exchanged insults and a heated argument ensued." The officers "proceeded to beat [the detainee] for almost two hours, insulting and ridiculing him the entire time." Id. The arrestee "remained handcuffed throughout the attack. At no point did he attempt to strike any of the officers." Id.
We upheld the convictions of three officers for use of excessive force, in violation of the detainee's Fourteenth Amendment rights. In doing so, we approved as "fairly stat[ing] the controlling law," id. at 789-90, the trial court's jury instructions, which stated, in pertinent part, id. at 787:23
"A law enforcement officer is justified in the use of any force which he reasonably believes to be necessary to effect arrest or hold someone in custody and of any force which he reasonably believes to be necessary to defend himself or another from bodily harm. Provocation by mere insulting or threatening words will not excuse a physical assault by a law enforcement officer. Mere words, without more, do not constitute provocation or aggression on the part of the person saying those words. No law enforcement officer is entitled to use force against someone based on that person's verbal statements alone."
Of import here, we said: "The trial court was entirely correct that words alone do not justify the excessive use of force against a pretrial detainee." Id. at 789. Accordingly, we rejected the officers' contention that "mere words by a pretrial detainee can justify the use of physical force by a police officer." Id.
The Court contrasted the Jones v. Buchanan case, but also explained how it supported their holding:
Perhaps the most factually apposite of our prior cases is Jones v. Buchanan, 325 F.3d 520 (4th Cir. 2003). In that case, a handcuffed detainee in a processing room at a jail exchanged "'pretty foul language'" with a deputy, who then knocked the detainee to the floor, jumped on him, and crushed his nose. Id. at 524.13 We reversed the district court's grant of qualified immunity to the deputy, stating, id. at 530 (citation omitted):
"To be sure, when Deputy Keller knocked Jones to the floor and injured him, Jones concedes that he was drunk, angry, and using foul language. However, mere use of foul language, even a drunk's loud use of such language in a police station, does not justify an objectively reasonable police officer knocking the drunk down, jumping on him, and breaking his nose. . . . [A] drunken plaintiff's 'screaming' and use of 'foul language' in a confined area . . . constitutes a mere 'nuisance' and not an immediate threat to the safety of the officers or others . . . . "
We also noted that testimony that the officer had "hit Jones 'with his fist'" provided further "evidentiary support for Jones's contention that the level of force was excessive." Id. at 530 n.6. And, we stated: "Deputy Keller also cannot justify his actions based on Jones's slight physical movement –- simply beginning to stand up," id. at 530 (emphasis omitted), where the detainee "never pushed, kicked, or threatened anyone." Id.
The Court contrasted another case, the Grayson case, finding that it did not hold up to the facts in the Sawyer matter – nor the Orem, Cobb, or Jones facts:
Orem, Cobb, and Jones stand in marked contrast to Grayson v. Peed, 195 F.3d 692 (4th Cir. 1999), in which we rejected a claim of use of excessive force against a pretrial detainee. In Grayson, officers arrested a man for possession of marijuana and PCP after he was discovered with those substances while on the floor of a mall restroom stating, "I love everyone." Id. at 694. The man resisted arrest. Id. He was transported to a detention center where, after being strip searched, he attempted to escape his cell, causing a "struggle" to ensue with officers, who subdued the detainee with pepper spray. Id.
The next morning, the detainee "was again acting belligerently," sticking his arm through the food slot of his cell. Id. When one of the officers opened the door of the detainee's cell in an attempt to get the detainee to put his arm back, the detainee jammed his own foot in the doorway of the cell. A "five-man cell extraction team . . . pinned [the detainee] face down. During the course of the struggle [the detainee] was punched seven to nine times." Id. The detainee "continued to act violently" until the officers "placed him in four-point restraints." Id. A few minutes later, the detainee lost consciousness. Id. Although medics checked the detainee's pulse on two occasions and observed that "he was okay," the detainee suddenly ceased breathing. Id. Attempts at CPR were unsuccessful and the detainee died. Id.
In the § 1983 suit that followed, brought on behalf of the detainee's estate, we affirmed the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the officers. In light of the detainee's physical resistance and attempts to escape his cell, we ruled that the officers' "restraining measures were necessary to subdue" the detainee. Id. at 696. Therefore, we determined that the "force applied by [the] officers was 'in a good faith effort to maintain or restore discipline,' and did not violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment." Id. (citation omitted).
The Court specifically found that the Sawyer facts crossed the line into a clear civil rights violation, and noted that all these cases have something in common: the subject is not being violent, but is being verbally provocative.
Unlike Grayson, in this case the video clearly reveals that Sawyer did not attempt any violent, unruly, or evasive act before Deputy Asbury hit him in the face. As in Orem, Carr, and Jones, the officer's assault here was provoked by the detainee's verbal tirade and/or his intransigence and failure to heed instructions.
. . .
Sawyer's failure to comply with Asbury's order to stand did not justify Asbury in striking Sawyer in the face. A detainee's refusal to comply with an officer's lawful order, without more, is not a license to "take the gloves off."
And what about the fact that Sawyer was not in handcuffs when the use of force occurred?
To be sure, the detainees in Orem, Carr, and Jones were all in handcuffs when they were assaulted by officers, whereas in this case, Sawyer was not handcuffed when Asbury struck him. This distinction is not determinative, however. We did not state in Orem, Carr, or Jones that the officer's use of force was excessive because the detainee was in handcuffs. Nor did we suggest that, but for the handcuffs, the force would not have been excessive. Rather, as we reasoned in Jones, the handcuffs were significant because, "if [the detainee] was handcuffed behind his back," it was "hard to see how he would pose an immediate threat to anyone." 325 F.3d at 529.
The Court holds that the presence of a video changes the usual scenario where officers are able to testify they believed there was an imminent threat supporting their use of force, even where there was not a threat:
In this case, the video dispels any need to speculate as to whether Sawyer posed an immediate threat to the officers: it shows that Deputy Asbury, rather than Sawyer, was the aggressor.
We recognize that "the agents of the state are permitted to exercise a certain degree of force in order to protect the interests of society." Justice v. Dennis, 834 F.2d 380, 382 (4th Cir. 1987) (en banc), vac'd on other grounds, 490 U.S. 1087 (1989). In the Fourteenth Amendment context, an officer may use the force needed in a "'good faith effort to maintain or restore discipline,'" but the officer may not use force "'maliciously or sadistically for the very purpose of causing harm.'" Carr, 453 F.3d at 605 (citation omitted).
The Court summed up their holding in Sawyer:
In sum, under the facts of this case, Asbury's deployment of a blow to the head of Sawyer, a detainee, in response to mere insulting words and noncompliance with the deputy's orders, was excessive. Such conduct did not constitute a good faith effort to maintain or restore discipline. The district court understood the import of the video evidence, which indisputably shows that Deputy Asbury used force that was excessive under the circumstances.
What this case means to me:
1. Videotaped evidence is crucial and a game-changer. A videotape of a violent use of force against a subject who has not engaged in violence, but who is merely running his mouth, or refusing to obey commands, is sufficient to establish a civil rights violation irregardless of contradictory officer testimony.
2. Subjects who are not being violent cannot be punched in the head and/or choked.
3. Violent physical force cannot be used against someone merely for making verbal threats or refusing to obey commands.

Anton Maiden, real name Anton Gustafsson (February 24, 1980 in Kinna, Västergötland – November 1, 2003 in Borås, Västergötland) achieved Internet fame around 1999 by singing over MIDI and MOD-versions of Iron Maiden songs. He got famous as a phenomenon of geek and DIY culture.
He started by publishing some songs on the Internet for a small group of friends. After being encouraged by them, he made some songs available to the public in his album Anton Gustafsson tolkar Iron Maiden, which was distributed under Lunacy and Nihilism record labels. In an interview with the Swedish newspaper Expressen (dated June 2000), he told journalist Martin Carlsson that Iron Maiden fans "think that my interpretations are a disgrace to Iron Maiden. But that was never my intent."
Apparently led by feelings of depression, Anton Gustafsson committed suicide in November, 2003, and was found dead in Borås after having been missing for a week.

New row brewing over Christmas lights in Newcastle West
Cllr Michael Collins calls for support for Christmas lights scheme in Newcastle West
NEWCASTLE West councillor Michael Collins has accused his fellow councillors in the Municipal District of reneging on their support for the new Christmas lights scheme in the town.
And he warned that, without the financial support of the council, the future of the scheme in the county town was being put at risk.
When he proposed last month that €10,000 be awarded towards the cost of the lights this year, he said, the only councillor who supported him was Sinn Fein's Cllr Seamus Browne.
Now, Cllr Collins intends bringing the matter up again at the next meeting of local councillors in ten days' time.
Outlining the background to the issue, Cllr Collins said that last year the Newcastle West Business Association in association with the Chamber of Commerce, "stuck their necks out" and signed up to an ambitious Christmas lights programme which would transform the town at a cost of almost €150,000 over three years.
This was done, the Fianna Fail councillor said, on the understanding that the councillors were backing them. The former Limerick County Council, he explained, only gave a nominal contribution to the Christmas lights.
However, he continued, following the amalgamation of city and county councils in 2014, he discovered that the city was getting €180,000 towards the cost of lights. "I have no difficulty with that," he said but he argued that something had to be done for county towns also.
In the event, last year, Newcastle West was granted €10,000 from the council'sl budget and an additional €10,000 was granted from the Newcastle West Municipal District's fund with the support of all the councillors.
But, according to Cllr Collins, his proposal for a further €10,000 this year has now fallen on deaf ears. "They are reneging." he said. "I only got support from Cllr Browne who said we knew it was going to be a three year plan and it had to be supported by the local authority."
"If it is not supported it is going to fall flat on its face," he warned.
There was huge positive public reaction to the new lights scheme when it was switched on last Christmas, chairman of the Newcastle West Business Association Seamus Hunt said this week. The cost of the scheme in the first year was €47,000, he revealed, but there is still currently a shortfall of €14,000 despite a mid-year appeal to businesses to contribute.
"We got great support from all of the councillors and we are relying on them for their continued support," he said. "If we don't get the support we will have to scale down."
The councillors meet again on September 7.

I have a story to tell(Click here for a catchy number by Vihang, a fellow trekker and singer who composed this song about our Sarpass experience – Chalte ) – of a camping trip through probably the most gorgeous stretch in India. With all its twists and turns, I am glad it happened. For every hurdle through the treacherous weather, there was a beautiful camp site waiting for us, for every time, health tested us, there was something new to experience, for every time I asked myself as to how on earth did I decide on doing this trek, there was a beautiful trail to be followed. Our batch faced it all – Blizzard, Minus 15 temperature, hailstorm, crazy rain, snowfall, sunburns and days of bad health. When I look back, I think it was better this way. Every time we thought the worst was over, nature threw something new at us and we handled it with lots of laughter, a bit inhibition and small moments of breakdowns. I am proud to say I walked through SAR PASS – at 13800 feet above sea level, I crossed a frozen lake with snow under my feet, burns on my nose and so much awe in my eyes and heart for this precious place created by god.
Why this fascination? Come May and you will see over 1500 people flocking Kasol in pursuit of fulfilling their dream of crossing Sar Pass. This is not the typical bunch of trekkers you meet in your one/two-day treks around your city. You will find all kinds of people here. Some who have done Sar Pass multiple times, some who have never trekked in their life, some who are regular trekkers, some runners, some fitness junkies, some foodies, some photographers, some bird watchers and some looking for an untouched piece of nature. A group of 50 leaves the base camp every single day, with 2 groups cheering them and wishing them well at the base camp and enthusiastically thinking of the next day when they would be on the other side being cheered by the next 2 batches.
I had planned to do Sar Pass in 2012. But then, I came back with a bad stomach infection after a beach trip, 103 fever and all that, stayed home for 10 days, lost all confidence of doing Sar Pass and cancelled it. When registrations opened in 2014, most things fell in place. Anshul from Pune, Zoheb from Delhi and me from Bangalore. YHAI and flight booking – Check. We were to be a part of the May 2 2014 batch, fondly known as SP2. I had nothing much going on in April and so, all I did was research about Sar Pass and pack. Yes – I shopped and packed for over a month and I would say it helped in some ways. Like a typical Bangalorean who treks, I visited Decathlon followed by not so typical visits to Commercial Street and Russel Market. But after reaching Kasol I realised we cannot carry anything that is not bare minimum. Here's my checklist
It was the last weekend of April. I kept praying everything will go well. Visited my doctor for a medical certificate and to get a list of medicines I needed to carry. The paranoid me started reading stories of accidents at Sar Pass, blizzards, deaths etc. But I do that. I scare myself before letting good things happen 🙂
Took the early morning flight to Delhi on May 1. On reaching, headed straight to Zoheb's house which was near Jammia Millia University. Anshul came there too and we repacked our bags. There were stuff like Hunter Shoes which I had picked up for the boys from Bangalore. By 4, we headed to the railway station to catch the Delhi-Kalka Express to Chandigarh.
Chandigarh was a culture shock for me in every way. We had to head straight to where our bus to Bhuntar was. We called the bus driver and handed the phone to the auto driver to understand where he had to drop us. They got into a fight within 2 minutes of conversation, the auto driver used all sorts of words and his first level of retaliation to us was – "Dekh leejiye aap. Aap ke saath ladies hain". Without speaking a word, we took another auto(me still in shock) and reached Sector 43(or was it 52).
At this point we met Mr. Ghajini. This man (who started the fight with the auto driver), gave us the tickets, took money from us and forgot about it. I mean, literally. Every 10-15 minutes, he would ask us for money, ask us to buy tickets and we would patiently explain that we have paid already. He did this for over 2 hours, the last attempt at a petrol bunk to where he followed us to ask the same question. Coming to the driver of the bus. He was smoking up. I was in the second row and I could see everything and I prayed for my life. He did 4-5 kinds of stuff and the best part after that was, he drove so well. My friends did not seem amused at all. I mean.. HE WAS SMOKING UP!!!
We had some out of this world Aloo Parathas at Bhuntar before starting our 30kms/2hours journey to Kasol. The bus was filled with locals, some foreigners and some who looked like YHAI trekkers. Around 12, we reached Kasol base camp. We were welcomed by, who we lovingly call (he doesn't know about it) Bakar Uncle. We filled our forms, got our admission cards and were assigned to our respective tents. Over the course of 2 days, we knew SP2 would comprise of 9 girls and 38 guys.
The base camp and Kasol is a pretty good place to socialise. You stay with people from different batches, talk to 'over prepared' trekkers(like me) to know if you have missed out anything, speak to guides and YHAI management to see if there is anything to make the hike more interesting. The food YHAI serves at the base camp is very good. Your day would start with a good run to a nearby ground where you would exercise for a while, jog back to the camp for some good breakfast, get ready for that day's activity (acclimatization hike/rappelling and rock climbing) come back for lunch, nap if you can, go to Kasol market for some last-minute shopping, sit through a round of instructions from the general, have your tea, soup and prepare for the gala evening where you would be asked to entertain.
There is one other big task you have to do before you start the 7 day camping expedition. Decide the stuff you would carry on this trek and stuff you would leave behind. Ideally your bag should not weigh more than 3-4 kgs if it's a small bag and not more than 6 kgs if it's a backpack (the kinds where the bag itself weighs around 2kgs). I had to reduce over 4 kilos which I did efficiently. They have a weighing machine for you to cross check.
There were 2-3 dogs that came with us on this trek. They completed the trek with us.. Respect. They handled the terrains, the cold with such ease (sometimes they sneaked into our tent as it got too cold outside). They even knew the route. So sometimes, if we went the wrong way, they would show the right one. Jojo (Also known as tuffy) was a favourite but there was also an unnamed underdog who was my favourite. More stories about him when I talk about Bhandak Thatch.
I am detailing out the experience by each route/each day followed by the experience at the camp itself. But overall, I'd like to say that Sarpass is once in a lifetime experience. The routes present to you so much beauty and such good challenge that you would want to do more. The camp sites are painstakingly selected by YHAI and each has its own charm. YHAI does a brilliant job of organizing this 10 dayer for you. The guides you meet are amazing human beings. It is one of the tuffer treks organized by them so it pays to be prepared for some level of difficulty. When I was there, I felt too cold, sometimes felt it was too difficult, sometimes thought that there is a high chance I may slip and slide away on a frozen river to neverland but today, when I'm safe and back in my city, I wish to go back to the mountains and live there forever!
Sometimes it's the journey that teaches you a lot about your destination
Kasol to GrahanFeet: 6500ft to 7700ft Kms: 9 kms Time taken: 8:30AM to 3:00PM Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Terrain: The big day is your 4th day at Kasol. This is the day you start your first hike. I had fallen ill the previous night (bad stomach – apparently some people cannot handle the minerals in Himalayan Water) and ran out of energy within the first couple of hours of the trek. Though you cover good number of kms, this trek is relatively easy. You walk through forests with Parvati River on your side almost for the entire journey. The entire stretch is green with scenic walkways, plateaus for good breaks, pahadis with their herd of sheep and cows, beautiful burass red flowers to make the whole stretch magical. Towards the end, you will meet Pahadi children who call you Candy Man as they know you have Mango Bites in your bag (given by YHAI). So, we spent time sharing our candies with them, taking some pictures and trying to ensure they did not litter the place with candy wrappers.
Experience: Most people found this stretch relatively simple. I, was on a trip of my own with some bad health but Zoheb supported me throughout, waiting for me and ensuring I don't take too many breaks. Sometimes, it becomes very important to have THAT one person who motivates you and stays with you. Towards the end, we had no guide and had to figure out the route ourselves but YHAI has red arrows on enough number of rocks which makes "getting lost" a little difficult. We reached the camp site at around 3PM and immediately put our feet in a stream near-by. You can't stay there for long as the water is COLDDDDD. But, this small dip in Parvati was extremely refreshing.
Grahan Camp: The only camp which is close to a village. After this, there are no human settlements. Loved the view from the tent. We had enough time to walk around the camp area and look around. This lady selling maggi had kept the place warm for us with fire. Next morning we had paddus – a local delicacy with burass chutney and I swear I think it fixed my tummy 🙂 A green camp with snowclad mountains in the background, Grahan was a great start to Sar Pass.
Grahan to Padri
Date: May 5 2014 Feet: 7700ft to 9300ft Kms: 9 kms Time taken: 8:30AM to 1:30PM Difficulty: Easy
Terrain: This is probably the easiest and fastest stretch in the entire trek. The path is not too steep and fun. It's foggy in some places and the woods remind you of Game of Thrones. The banners are a sign that the camp site is not too far off.
Experience: I loved this stretch. I think feeling better had a great deal to do with this feeling. Also, I started eating Maggi and Omlet at every place that was selling it. God bless those people. The thing is, YHAI food is good when it's hot. Packed lunch I did not like at all as it was hard, cold and not tasty. Zoheb and I survived on Maggi and Omlet.
Padri Camp: This is the second best camp site of Sar Pass. Padri is the base of a valley with beautiful mountains all around. Walking around this camp is a beautiful experience as you gorgeous wherever you look. Ellora, Radhika, Mohit, Zoheb, Anshul and I sat on top of a small hill to get some sun and chatted away. The camp also acted as a ground for all of us to play lots of games. Mafia, Seven – Up and good old Antakshari made the evening extremely memorable. Camp fire kept us warm and we sang for hours. In terms of bonding as a group, this probably was the best camp site.
Padri to Min ThatchDate: May 6 2014 Feet: 9300ft to 11200ft Kms: 11.5 kms Time taken: 8:30AM to 4:00PM Difficulty: Difficult
Terrain: The toughest route in my opinion. Apparently the earlier plan was to camp at Ratapani but because of too much snow, they shifted it to Min Thatch. Min Thatch was another 1.5 hours of walk. We realised that till 2:00 PM the weather is good. And almost like there is an alarm in the sky, when the clock ticks 2, something starts to happen. Also, walking on ice is not very easy. Your steps have to be calculated and the stick you carry has to precede every step of yours. There were stretches of walkways that were just 1 foot wide, a snow wall on your right and miles of sliding snow on your left. I always wondered what would happen if I slip. Thankfully, none of us fell and went sliding away.
Experience: The climb was extremely steep. We were shifting from green terrains to brown to snow-clad ones. The climb looked almost never-ending. But then we reached Ratapani and we thought the next stretch would be comfortable. How wrong we were. When the clock struck 2, it started raining with hailstorm. We had to walk on the snow through a jungle. We walked for a bit with those really uncomfortable plastic ponchos and suddenly realised that there was no one behind. The guide asked us to wait (in the rain+hailstorm place) when he went to bring the next group. This wait was easily around 30 minutes. It was getting colder and wetter. My fingers felt uncomfortable and I was in for a shock when I took off the gloves. My hands were blue. This was the scariest part of the trek for me. I freaked out. I walked so fast after this to reach the camp that I must have been the 7th or 8th person to reach Min Thatch. I did not care about the difficulty of the route. All I knew was to place my fingers in a hot mug of water which I was hopeful of getting at Min Thatch. But luckily, all the speed increased my body heat and brought my fingers back to normal. Thank you god 🙂
Min Thatch Camp: As there was lots of snow, this was a slushy camp. The walkway was dirty and slippery but the view from behind our tent was just gorgeous. After a hot cup of tea followed by soup, I was in the mood to enjoy the beauty of Min Thatch! Ellora and I got sick and threw up at this camp. The guys (Anshul, Zoheb ad Mohit) took such good care of us here, we were touched. They got us tablets(from the medical kit that's kept at every camp), gave us extra blankets(they gave up theirs) and checked on us every now and then to ensure we were OK.
Min Thatch to NagaruDate: May 7 2014 Feet: 11200ft to 12500ft Kms: 9.5 kms Time taken: 8:30AM to 3:00PM Difficulty: Medium
Terrain: Mostly snow. A good hike but the snow slows you down a little. You can see Nagaru tents from a distance and acts as a good motivator throughout. Lunch point is on a sort of cliff. A fellow trekker dropped his DSLR by accident here and it went rolling down the mountain easily covering 2 kms of distance. Our amazing guide went down is such style and brought the camera back in such speed that it left us all applauding. But it also made us think of our fate if we.. you know… went rolling down :s
Experience: Within half hour of starting, they give you a break of over 45 minutes in fresh snow. This is your opportunity to play, slide, take pictures, fall and have fun 🙂 After this starts the not so long walk to Nagaru. The view gets whiter, air thinner but the feeling of reaching the highest camp site is exhilarating. Nagaru is a 100% snowclad camp site. The best part over here is.. YOU GET NETWORK.
Nagaru Camp: We called our homes to inform our parents that we are doing well. The camp leader gave us our higher altitude sleeping bags by 4:30 PM and khicdi for dinner by 5. By 5:15 PM we were ready to sleep as we had to start early the next morning. And then it happened. At around 5:30 PM, a blizzard struck. Our tent was opening up from all directions and snow is getting thrown in by the wind. We got onto the mission of saving our tent and ourselves and so, 9 girls got together and did an awesome job of holding the tent down. Some of us sat at the openings and held it together, some got into sleeping bags and lied down on the tent (inspite of it being freezing cold outside) and some of us stood at the centre holding the pillar. We even took the dogs in and made them sit on the tent in a corner to help us. We feared our stuff would fly away but after 2.5 hours, there was peace. I must say, after watching videos of the boys' tent that we did a fantastic job 🙂
Nagaru to Sar Pass to Biskeri
Terrain: This is the main day. You accomplish what you have come for on this day. You cross Sar Pass this day. The proud moment happens today. The stretch is not very difficult. The guides ensure you are not going too fast. The slight steep will go unnoticed as you hike at a slow pace behind a co-trekker going in a single line. The last patch is almost a 90 degree climb but it's not very difficult. One thing to remember here is to follow everything the guides tell you. Don't try to break any rules as it can be fatal.
Experience: I loved this walk. It wasn't strenuous. Anshul, Zoheb and I kept chatting as we took one step at a time on the snow. We stopped now and then, took Maggi breaks and continued walking. I came back with terrible sun burns, probably most horrible in the group. Those heartless UV rays. My favourite part was the 90 degree climb. After this part is the first slide. The thing is you are climbing from one side and have to get onto the other side of the mountain. As the climb is steep, the descend is a crazy slope. You can't walk – You HAVE to slide. And I did. That's when I felt snow on my face, my shades flying away, my inability to breathe coz of snow in face and before I knew it, I was toppling down. When I finally landed, my friends were there to tell me it was OK and that they all came down the same way. But after this slide, we were more confident and everytime we saw a slope, we would slide down. I must have easily done 7-8 slides 🙂
Our lunch point was a bright yellow tent in the middle of all the snow. It was beautiful to walk towards it and a lovely conversation with Aditya made this walk even more beautiful! 'Maggi and Omlet' we screamed before even reaching the tent. We were scared to face any bad weather considering there was absolutely no place to hide from it. So we started walking and sliding and talking and sliding some more and falling till we reached Biskeri Camp 🙂
Biskeri Camp: Beskeri is in a snow valley. At this camp, fellow trekkers started making plans of skipping Bhandak and go straight to Kasol. Some of them were injured by the maniacal first slide, some fed up of sleeping in tents and some pure home sick. So, the girl's tent spent some good quality time together talking for long about treks, boyfriends, future boyfriends, kids.. You get the drift! We also took a few really cool pictures in the tent.
Beskeri to Bhandak Thatch
Experience: Zoheb decided to call it quits and head straight to Kasol and he tried a little to convince me to do the same. I was hell-bent on visiting Bhandak. I had read in some blogs that it is the best camp site. And what a dreamland it was. Even the route from Beskeri to Bhandak is a pleasure walk. Not difficult at all as you are descending but also because the white landscape slowly becomes fresh green and that transformation gives such joy. The joy of seeing cattle grazing, of people soaking in some sun, of trees, of leaves after 2 days of complete snow.
Bhandak Thatch Camp: Soon, we were at Bhandak which is probably the most beautiful place on earth for me so far! You are surrounded by snow-clad mountains but you are on grassland. It was also special because, 8 out of 9 girls had decided to go straight to Kasol. So, I had a private tent. And what a cute, cozy tent it was! The initial excitement started dying when I realised I had to sleep alone. But my favourite dog took it upon himself to be there for me. He just wouldn't leave my side. Wherever I went he followed me and he slept inside the tent as well. Knowing he was there to protect me let me sleep in peace. Will remain grateful to him 🙂
The 22 of us(who decided to go to Bhandak) walked around looking at the beauty of nature, when a fellow trekker played a folksy gujarati song and before we knew, all of us were grooving(atleast moving) to the music. As it started getting cold, a few of us got into the tent to play some cards but in a bit it was snowing.. The soft snow kinds.. So, we got out and played in the snow, throwing snow at each other and the dog, screaming in excitement and just living the moment to its fullest. The night ended with 2 full hours of awesome dumb charades with torch lights on the person acting.
Bhandak Thatch to Barshani
Terrain: This descend takes you about 3 hours with breaks. The first sight of houses you see makes you realise you are back to civilization and a dam construction at Barshani rudely shakes you up from the dream you have lived for the last 7 days.
Barshani to Manikaran to KasolDate: May 10 2014 Feet: 6600ft to 6500ft Kms: 21 kms Time taken: 12:30PM to 1:45PM Difficulty: Bus Ride 🙂
Experience: The dogs that stayed with us for the whole trek had to figure a way to get back to Kasol. We were boarding the bus from Barshani to Manikaran. So we tried to get the dogs inside but they refused. Instead, they ran behind the bus for 21 kms. Kudos to them! I had very little time to freshen up as we were leaving Kasol at 4PM. Quickly, we collected our belongings that we had left at base camp, picked up our certificates and got into the cab which dropped us to Bhuntar. This is where I saw my sunburnt face for the first time and believe me, it wasn't a pretty sight. Half my face was fine. From nose downwards was black. I basically looked like a monkey. But, this has been my defense for the last 2 weeks – Whatever dude.. I completed a Himalayan Trek 🙂

In San Diego, "winter" driving doesn't have the same meaning as in other parts of the country. Inside the city limits, the temperatures stay relatively mild, and we don't have to contend with icy or snowy roads.
However, drivers don't have to go too far into the mountains to encounter hazardous cold weather driving. In addition, wet roads here in San Diego during the El Nino season can be just as dangerous. As San Diego car accident lawyers, we have seen firsthand what can happen when drivers fail to adjust to changing road conditions.
To help drivers stay safe this winter, the California Office of Traffic Safety recently offered several important tips:
- Make sure your brakes, windshield wipers, defroster, anti-freeze, heater and lights are all in good working order. Tires, including the spare, should also be properly inflated with the treads in good condition.
- Check the weather and current road conditions before hitting the road.
- Carry an emergency kit, particularly on long road trips.
- Buckle your seat belt on every trip and require all passengers to do the same. Wearing a seat belt is the best defense to prevent injury and death in a crash.
- Remain alert and focused on the road. That means minimizing distractions, such as turning off your cell phone or storing it out of reach.
- During heavy rain, keep your vehicle in the middle lane, since water tends to pool in outside lanes.
- Turn on your headlights in rainy, foggy or overcast conditions. Use low beams in fog or snow.
- Avoid driving through running water that could be deeper than the bottom of your vehicle.
- Do not use cruise control during wet or snowy road conditions because it could cause skidding and loss of tire traction in winter conditions.
- In rain or snow, decrease your speed and increase the following distance between you and the vehicle in front. Stopping distances can double in rain, triple in snow.
If you or someone you love has been seriously harmed in a San Diego motor vehicle crash involving a negligent driver, you may be entitled to compensation, including reimbursement of medical expenses and lost wages. We encourage you to contact a San Diego injury attorney at the Law Offices of Robert Vaage for a free consultation.

Group Advanced Data - Hari Raya Gathering
It was the last event we celebrated as Group Advanced Data. After this the team to be split into different groups. It was fun celebration we started with Gangnam Style dance which I do not want too post the video here due to strong condemnation by my fellow close minded Malays who think the world revolves around them. Everything outside our culture is deemed as unIslamic and should be punished in hell!!
|It was fun celebration
Nevertheless, it enjoyable event with sumptuous food and raya performance by each team in GAD. My team sang M. Nasir's raya songs and it happened to be Dato' Shaz's favourite. Immediately, after we finished sing the song he gave each of us RM50!! Alhamdullillah rezeki. Other teams all tak puas hati... hehehe
