New Description of Truck That Followed and Shot Florida Sikh

New Description of Truck That Followed and Shot Florida Sikh
Gurdwara Sets up the Kanwaljit Singh Fund

The vehicle involved in the shooting of Kanwaljit Singh of Port Orange, Florida, is a Chevrolet S-10 or GMC Sonoma-style truck, which differs from the initial description of the larger Ford truck that was circulated earlier, police said today.

Port Orange police detectives have obtained multiple surveillance videos showing Kanwaljit Singh?s car being followed by the suspect truck from International Speedway Boulevard in Daytona Beach to the area where the shooting occurred on Dunlawton Bridge, the March 6 police report says.

Kanwaljit Singh was followed for about 10 miles, Capt. David Meyer told SikhNN. He had closed his new convenience store and was heading home.

Just before midnight on Feb. 23, police responded to a 911 call from Kanwaljit Singh saying he had been shot.

According to the first police report on Feb 26, the shooting occurred on the bridge while Kanwaljit Singh was driving westbound. The suspect truck pulled alongside his 2005 Ford Focus and fired multiple shots. Six were found in the driver?s side of the car. Two hit Kanwaljit Singh, one in the thigh and one in the lower torso.

The truck attempted to turn around and come after him again, said Navtej Singh Khalsa, Southeast regional director for the Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund, and a family friend from the same area, in a previous interview. But it then fled westbound on Dunlawton Avenue and then turned southbound on Halifax Drive.

Kanwaljit Singh?s 13-year-old son was in the passenger seat and watched the entire incident unfold. He was not hurt.

The initial description was based on information received by the victim?s son, but it was during a ?tense moment when everything was going on,? Meyer said. ?The son is (now) in agreement (after) seeing the videos.?

Separate videos show a single-cab, dark blue or black truck, Meyer said. They also show that the license plate is on the right rear bumper, not as typically positioned in the center of the bumper, the police report says.

The surveillance video obtained from the police and published on SikhNN shows the light colored 2005 Ford Focus, the second car to drive by, followed by the truck, a few seconds later.

Kanwaljit Singh pulled over on the shoulder of the bridge and realized he had been shot, the earlier police report says. He called 911 at approximately 11:50 p.m. as he drove to the 200 block of Dunlawton Avenue where he pulled off to the side of the road. He was transported to Halifax Hospital in Daytona Beach.

Kanwaljit Singh came home on Tuesday. He is still recovering from the surgeries, and taking some calls from media. They are mostly doing ?human interest stories,? Navtej Singh said today. Navtej Singh also was part of a broadcast news story and took the opportunity to educate the public about Sikhs, he said.

Kanwaljit Singh?s wife is now running their convenience story, but only limited hours. His son also tries to help.

?She is concerned about their financial wellbeing,? Navtej Singh added. They do not have any health insurance. And with her husband unable to work, it is difficult to make ends meet.
?They had invested quite a bit into store,? he said. They just opened it about two weeks earlier. The local gurdwara, the Sikh Society of Central Florida, in Oviedo, has started a fund for the family.

Police are investigating this as a possible hate crime and believe that Kanwaljit Singh was shot because of his religiously mandated unshorn beard and turban. The FBI is assisting the Port Orange Police Department in the investigation.

Twitter updates mobile apps with better search, improved browsing

Twitter has updated the search and web browsing capabilities for its official iOS and Android apps and its mobile website.

The tweet tweak, announced by the company on Wednesday, builds on the ability to capture "important Twitter moments" by showcasing older, notable tweets within search results. Wednesday's update brings a Top Tweet from the past while also allowing users to "view more from this time"

On its official blog the company wrote: "We recently introduced the ability to see older tweets in search results. Now when you search for important Twitter moments, you may see a Top Tweet separate from the rest of the results. This Tweet is the best match for your query based on relevance and engagement. To see additional Tweets from this time period, tap on ?View more from this time.? Try searching for ?four more years? or ?deep challenge? on your phone to see an example."

Another improvement involves the app's built-in web browser. Now, when users click a web link or load a video from within a tweet, the original tweet will also be visible at the foot of the screen.

The company says keeps the webpage in context for readers (and viewers) and allows them to easily quote, retweet or reply to the post without returning to their timeline.

"If you don?t want to see the Tweet, simply tap the page and the Tweet will slide away from view. By pulling up or down on the tray icon, the Tweet will appear or disappear from view," wrote software engineer Nick Takayama.

The update, which also features an improved auto-complete mechanism, comes in a week when Twitter has come under fire for removing support for the popular TweetDeck app it bought in 2011.

As it continues to discourage access from anything but its official suite of apps, Twitter will need to continue rolling out new and enticing features for its mobile apps to prevent users seeking alternatives.

"Second Chance Animal" group rescue horses from animal cruelty

"Second Chance Animal" group rescue horses from animal cruelty ?Play Video
Starving colt rescued.
PECK, ID - There is outrage from animal lovers after three young horses starved to death in Clearwater County.

This is a Facebook picture from the animal rescue group, "Second Chance Animal." Allegedly, this horse was one of three that recently perished due to in-humane treatment. The animals were originally on a property in the Peck area, and then moved to Clearwater county.

Police said these horses were under weight and lived in deplorable conditions. It is still unconfirmed Monday night just how much the Clearwater county sheriff's office knew about the case, or the owner.
Deputies said an investigation is on-going.

Skating to where the customers are going to be

"Skating to where the puck is going to be" is an old Wayne Gretzky saying that Steve Jobs once quoted, and so it gets rehashed a lot when discussing Apple's strategy for moving into new markets. Typically that's with hardware like iPhone, iPad, or potential hardware like the rumored iWatch, or with features like iTunes, AirPlay or Passbook. It's also an apt way to describe Apple's commercial strategy.

Time was, if you wanted to buy an Apple product, you had to search out one of the few, though often incredibly enthusiastic authorized resellers, or scour the dusty back shelves of a department retailer. Then Apple started building Apple Stores. They gave customers a place to go, and provided them with a great experience when they got there. But it wasn't enough. Even with stores in the hundreds, not everyone had one conveniently nearby. Apple Online could ship almost anywhere, but getting real products in real stores would take more. Apple knew that, so they built-out "stores within stores" at big boxes. And they kept going, getting their consumer devices on the shelves of popular electronics stores, megamarts, and this year, office depots.

They even made an Apple Store app because a growing segment of the market doesn't even go to the web anymore. They go to apps.

Apple's early retail strategy was unfocused and ineffective. They stepped back, regrouped, carefully built out something that could not only scale, but adapt, and then they began to deploy.

Time was, if you wanted to see Apple's ads you had to catch them on TV, hunt through Apple.com, or search out a bootleg online. Transformative campaigns like Think Different, Get a Mac, and App for That either required you to seek them out in unfriendly, hard-to-share formats, or suffer through a version uploaded at low quality, often with ancillary ads, commentary or agendas. Now Apple has a YouTube channel where they upload not only their own ads, but promotional videos and keynotes as well, in good quality, often the same day they air on TV or at events.

Even though it's owned by one of Apple's biggest competitors, Google, it's also the second biggest search engine in the world, enjoys massive mainstream awareness, and is almost a community unto itself.

Time was, if you wanted media and apps from Apple you had to go to iTunes and the App Store. Now iTunes is on Facebook, and Apple has multiple Twitter accounts for everything from movie trailers to podcasts, music to apps. They've even begun featuring iBooks inside the popular social reader, Flipboard.

Apple figured out that people coming to their stores were likely already customers, and already predisposed to buy. Putting their wares on social networks allowed them to push beyond the boundaries of their web site and devices, to where potential customers could be found. A like or a re-tweet here, and chance flip there, and someone who may not have even thought about visting an Apple Store or buying something suddenly sees a link, and maybe, curiously, clicks or taps on it.

Some have criticized Apple for these moves, accused them of devaluing their brand or tarnishing the premium aura of their products. By like Daring Fireball's John Gruber has often said, Apple is all about mainstream luxury. The iPod, iPhone, and iPad, and everything that rounds out the product line, has never been about snooty exclusivity but about exceptionally well made accessibility.

People used to joke, sometimes disparagingly, about seeing Apple products at the local quicky mart. That's not a joke. It's just constrained to gift cards. For now.

Apple is skating hard, not just to where their customers are, but to where they're customers are going to be.

Note to devs: I said YouTube instead of video because not putting your app videos on YouTube is like making your website exclusive to Bing. Apple's on YouTube for a reason. You should be too.

Cookbook review: The Bowler's Meatball Cookbook | Urban Pundit

urbanpundit stars 5.2
Bowler 1Recipe Tested:
Beef and Chorizo Balls
Suggested prep and cook time: 50 mins
Serves: 6-8
Difficulty: 3/10

Choosing the specific recipe from ?The Bowler?s Meatball Cookbook? was the hardest task in reviewing this book. There is a choice of fish, meat and veggie balls, all of which looked extra tasty, however my dining guests were meat eating fish haters so I chose the Beef and Chorizo Balls with confit garlic mayonnaise, a thoroughly good choice.

What you need:
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 shallots finely chopped
1 large free range egg (beaten)
500g beef chuck steak, minced
200g cooking chorizo, diced
400g white rice cooked (uncooked 100g)
200g Manchego cheese
1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
100g breadcrumbs
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon of salt
3 tablespoons of chopped parsley

Bowler 2Before you start, make sure you have cooked the rice and chopped everything as this will help to save time. Start by cooking the shallots on a low heat for 2 minutes, then add the garlic and stir for another 5 minutes until the onions are translucent. Then, add all of the ingredients into a bowl and mix with your hands until it?s all combined.The Bowler adds a nice little piece of advice to check the flavour; make a small patty and fry it off, then taste it. This way you can decide how much seasoning you want, however I?d say the recipe is spot on.

Next, line two baking trays with non stick baking parchment (works a treat, don?t use foil!) and cook at 220 degrees Celsius or gas mark 7 for 30 minutes and Bob?s your uncle! I served these ones as suggested, with the confit garlic mayonnaise which can be made from scratch (do it before the meatballs though, as the process takes a while) and rocket. ?I then sprinkled some of the Manchego cheese on top and served them with gherkins on ciabatta. It is as scrumptious as it sounds. The book has a lovely section at the back on the sauces and accompaniments, such as the confit garlic mayonnaise I used and Jerusalem artichoke gratin (which I really want to try), so you can make proper meatball banquets.

Bowler 3The recipe is easy, fairly quick and extremely tasty. The chorizo makes the meatballs flavoursome and adds another layer of texture, making them anything but bland. These are fillers though, so don?t be surprised if you can?t finish 4 ? I tried and failed. These would be great for a dinner party as they are quick and can be served on a bun, rather than with the usual pasta (yawn). The meatballs also work brilliantly as next day leftovers, as there were so many I had them for lunch cold with rocket and harissa cous cous and it hit the spot!
finished ballsJez Felwick is the Bowler, and he rides around the country in the Lawn Ranger (his grass covered van) serving meatballs to the masses. A regular on the London street food scene, Jez also makes appearances at farmers markets and festivals throughout the summer. If you want to find Jez and the Lawn Ranger then follow him on twitter @TheBowlerUK.
