If I was the chief of police, I'd put more cops at the pier during the time period the crime occurred.

Its close to the Hyatt Regency, a famous hotel in SF. Since there are many types of people that pass by there, those people would include the criminal types. It's unfortunate that the woman was at the wrong time and the wrong place. It's an unfortunate example of bad karma on her part, which is unfathomable for us mere humans. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : Pier 14 is a very popular tourist spot and not a rough neighborhood at all.

I read about that, seems like a mighty rough neighborhood when the news crews get mugged and pistol whipped during their broadcast while being filmed by yet other news crews.

I suspect much of this is "security theater" and unnecessary. They could do it more covertly given our technology. I think they want to condition us to live like we're in a Stalag. We had a 32 year old woman shot dead on the Embarcadero the other evening. They caught the guy who did it and he was a Mexican who had been deported 5 times already and had felony convictions. Apparently he just decided to shoot somebody. And I bet he used an unregistered gun so gun laws aren't going to help in these situations. Nor would "security theater." We've also had a couple of shooting down the road from me on the freeway. They don't know who did those. Maybe it was the same guy. On 07/05/2015 09:32 AM, steve.sundur@... mailto:steve.sundur@...

As I met my wife and daughter after they attended Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral ,there was a heavy police presence,. They were with armed semi, or fully automatic assault rifles and other gear. So, that was interesting. Also, the two Memorial Pools at the 9-11 site, marking the location of the two towers, was very impressive, IMO. Everything to do with the memorial was controversial including the memorials, but I found them to be rather perfect. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <anartaxius@...> mailto:anartaxius@... wrote : Thanks for the invitation, but I have other obligations. I deleted my post as I tend not to have any photos I have taken remain on the Internet in a public space for very long. I live about a 60 mile drive out of the City, and tend to avoid going into the City unless I have to. Normally I drive to the Metro North Train Station in Brewster (and at my age the round trip costs about $18.50), which actually costs less that the total cost of driving, though it takes longer. Parking is expensive in New York unless you hunt around. I have medical appointments on Monday. As I get older these appointments seem to be increasing in frequency. My vehicle is about 15 years old and I need to take it in for repairs, the exhaust system needs patching (I hope) as there are some holes in it and my SO is complaining about fumes, she is very sensitive to industrial fumes even though she thinks nothing of asphyxiating me with smoke particles from incense. TheCloisters was interesting. That day I was there, I went with a local photo club. The museum gave me temporary permission to use a tripod so I was able to get shots in darker areas until my camera died. I used my SO's camera for the rest of the day. I think that camera died a few months later too. Onceagain thanks for the invite, but it takes a lot of pressure to get me to go into New York City. If I go in more than two or three times a year, it's unusual. --------------------- From: "steve.sundur@...

ButI enjoyed your piece about The Cloisters, and wanted to invite you for lunch at the Four Seasons, Pool Room tomorrow (Monday), at noon. Thatmay depend if our attire will permit us entrance, but if not we will dine somewhere else. We'll be a party of four, two adults, and two grown kids. I know little about the Four Seasons other than hearing about it occasionally, but I read that it may have to relocate, and that it had a wonderful atmosphere. Andme, being a sucker for "darshan", of any sort, I though,we'd make a splurge. Hope you can make it, even with the last minute notice! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com mailto:FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <anartaxius@...> mailto:anartaxius@... wrote : Having located the source of our knowledge from India it turns out to be....
