A luxury hotel in Northern California has been hit with .6 million fine for restricting access to public beaches.The settlement reached Thursday between the Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay and the California Coastal Commission is the second largest of its kind for the commission.Lisa Haage, Chief of Enforcement for the Commission, told CNN she hopes these penalties will send a message.".6 million is enough to make them really pay attention and I think really improve their behavior," Haage said.When the hotel opened in 2001, it agreed to provide 25 easily identified public parking spaces and access to the beach through the hotel premises. Over the years, the Commission received numerous reports of the hotel failing to meet these requirements."If you pulled up at the Ritz-Carlton parking lot you certainly would not feel welcome or feel you have a nice public beach there," said Jennifer Savage, California Policy Manager for the Surfrider Foundation, an environmental organization.Reports made to the Commission included incidents where visitors were denied access to the public parking lot or saw the lot being used by hotel valet."I went out there once and saw a public parking sign literally pointing to nowhere," Haage said.Haage noted that signage may seem like a minor issue but said without signs people do not know they have a right to be there."If you don't know that you have a right, you can't exercise it," Haage said.The hotel was issued smaller penalties in 2004, 2007 and 2011, but according to a 1533

Scientists are working to eliminate a type of heart disease in dogs using gene therapy. They're zoning in on a heart condition called mitral valve disease that’s common in 6% of dogs. Scientists are using Cavalier King Charles spaniels for the research. They tend to develop it at a younger age. Scientists at Tufts University have already tested gene therapy in mice. A virus is injected into them to deliver DNA to cells which causes them to create a protein. What it essentially does is stops the heart valve from getting thicker, stopping the valve from leaking. Researchers are now moving on to testing this in dogs. But they think the treatment could go beyond just canines. “Many of the dog diseases are naturally occurring and really great models for human disease,” says Dr. Vicky Yang, a veterinary cardiologist and research assistant professor at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University. “And I can see this, if it becomes successful in dogs, potentially going into thinking about treatment for humans for mitral valve disease.”The biotech company behind the treatment agrees. It says it could also expand beyond heart problems. “I think a larger question, though, is if we are able to prove this thesis of treating aging, making the animal generally healthier, could also treat heart failure, what other diseases could we treat in dogs?” says Daniel Oliver, the CEO of Rejuvenate Bio. “And could we progress this treatment onto past dogs and other animals and possibly humans?” The gene therapy would only be used for dogs just starting to experience heart problems.Researchers still need to make sure the gene therapy is safe for all breeds before they make it available to the public. 1730

San Francisco is expected to set a groundbreaking precedent on Tuesday by voting to become the first city in the country to ban police from using facial recognition. Part of the reason: concerns about accuracy. “With Caucasian faces, facial recognition is pretty good. It has a 90 to 95 percent accuracy rate,” explains Darrell West, director of the Center for Technology Innovation with the Brookings Institution. “But with minorities, sometimes the accuracy rate drops to 70 percent.”West also says that once a person’s image is in the database, there’s uncertainty surrounding what it could be used for. A Georgetown law study found 1 in 2 American adults is in a law enforcement face recognition network. Law enforcement has argued the technology helps solve crimes or improve investigations. Agencies across the country can use driver’s license photos or mug shots to match someone's identity. “All it's doing is using something that's readily available,” says Sheriff Bob Gualtieri with the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Department in Florida. But it's not just law enforcement using the technology. Stores, airports and some concert venues are all starting to work it into their operations. It's become so mainstream, Congress is now considering a bill to stop businesses from collecting facial recognition data on customers without their permission. “I think people find it very intrusive that you're just walking down the street or going into the store and somebody's recording your face and then attaching your identity to that image,” West says.If the bill in Congress passes, it would be the first federal law on facial recognition. 1656

A Cincinnati police officer outed an undercover colleague to the nightclub owner under investigation and concealed ,000 in off-duty income from the IRS, according to federal prosecutors.Quianna Campbell, 39, was arrested Friday. She stands charged with lying to federal agents and submitting false tax returns.According to the criminal complaint filed against Campbell in United States District Court, federal agents first became aware of her during a 2015 investigation into Cincinnati nightclubs’ potential involvement in organized drug trafficking and money-laundering. “During the course of this investigation, information was received that individuals associated with nightclubs had been or were currently being warned of police activities and were in essence being tipped off and possibly protected by members of the Cincinnati Police Department,” an IRS investigator wrote. Investigators later uncovered text messages in which a nightclub owner texted Campbell to ask about a specific person who had visited the club. “She’s an officer….” Campbell wrote back. She also discussed possible reasons police would be investigating the club, writing: “They work on random nights and go into different bars. If they come back again next weekend I would say yes.”In an interview with federal investigators, Campbell denied sending the messages and said she would never out an undercover officer. In 2018, according to the complaint, Campbell would admit she had also concealed a total of ,000 she had earned working off-duty details between 2015-17. She didn’t report the total to the IRS in her taxes, “because if she had reported the income she would not have received as large of tax refunds she received from the federal government,” the IRS investigator wrote.If convicted on both charges, Campbell could spent up to eight years in federal prison."The Cincinnati Police Department is aware of the indictment and arrest of Police Officer Quianna Campbell this afternoon," a department spokesperson wrote in a statement Friday afternoon. "We will be monitoring the judicial process and provide an update if more information becomes available." 2163
