It has been more than five years since a New York City police officer put Eric Garner in a fatal chokehold during a struggle between Garner and police. After years of frustration, Garner's family applauded NYPD and Police Commissioner James O'Neill for firing Daniel Pantaleo.Emerald Garner, the daughter of Eric Garner, said she will continue fighting against police brutality. "Eric Garner was killed 5 years ago - it took 5 years for officer to be fired, " she said. "I don't want another Eric Garner. I will do everything in my power to never see another Eric Garner, I don't want to see another video of a person being choked...it wasn't supposed to happen to him and it wasn't supposed to happen."Emerald Garner thought the decision should have come sooner."Regardless of however you came up to your decision, you finally made a decision that should have been made five years ago," she said about O'Neill's decision. O'Neill said the decision behind Monday's announcement has been one he has thought about since being installed as commissioner in September 2016. "It's not something that I can make over a few hours - I have been thinking about this since the day I was sworn in as police commissioner," O'Neill said. "The decision was made in the last couple of days."Gwen Carr, Garner's mother, had a message for Daniel Pantaleo and his lawyer Stuart London."Pantaleo, you, your regime, London, you can appeal all you want. But I'm still out here, I'm out here for the long run. You come out here against me, I'm out here. And you cannot scare me away," Carr said. "I lost my son," Carr added. "You cannot replace that. You can get another job. Maybe at Burger King."Although Pantaleo was fired, he was not criminally charged for the fatal chokehold. The US Department of Justice decided earlier this year not to press charges. London confirmed with CNN that he plans on appealing NY{D's decision on Pantaleo's behalf. 1938

It used to be that learning happened in the classroom, but these last few months it’s happened a lot in front of a screen. Many parents have debated about how much screen time is too much and what’s best as school comes to a close and we hit the summer break. Now, some experts say that thinking screen time is bad might be old-school thinking. Video games have changed a lot since the days of Atari Pong. Now, more than ever, they’re designed to keep the consumer engaged. One of their biggest targets: adolescents. "Video games have classically been more of a problem because once you really engage that reward system, it’s frustrating and tough to pull kids off," said psychiatrist Joel Stoddard.He said that’s because a child’s reward system is stronger than a child’s control system. And there’s a difference in the way the brain reacts to video games than it does to the online schooling. "For most of the video games that kids are really into, like Fortnite and Zelda: Breath of the Wild, those games are designed to really engage their reward systems and keep their attention. So, that’s a little bit different than online school, which is not really designed in the same way to grab hold of those areas in the brain that are involved in like ‘this is what I want’," said Stoddard. "When kids are engaged with a teacher or with academic content online, that serves a very different purpose than playing a video game or having a zoom call to socialize with a peer," said Jennifer Walsh-Rurak, Vice President of the Northeast Region of Fusion Academy. That interaction, whether it’s playing video games with friends online, or FaceTiming, is better than no interaction. "In this day and age where they can’t naturally go outside and engage with kids in the neighborhood, we don’t want to discourage them from having that social peer interaction which we know is so critically important," said Walsh-Rurak. Stoddard says the extra time on the screens, isn’t all bad. It can actually be beneficial to an extent."The brain gets better at doing what it does so, when we’re interacting with screens all of our visual and screen areas are getting better. If you’re gaming, maybe some of those special attention and those reward areas get more sensitive, if we’re doing social media we’re going to be highly attuned to what does that ‘like mean, what does it not mean’. The brain just gets better at what it does," said Stoddard. However, it’s important to think about what else the kid could be doing instead of playing on the screen. "We do know that video games can suck kiddos in so they’re not actually having normative typical social interactions. They might gain weight, for example, and have disrupted sleep. And those have that sort of knock-on effects," said Stoddard. "I think proactively before it gets to that point, ensuring that kids have time built into their day where they plan to be outside maybe walking the dog, engaging with a family member in a conversation, reading a book. Doing something that very intentionally takes them away from that screen," said Walsh-Rurak. 3102

INDIANAPOLIS — The shiny red and white truck was supposed to be shipped to Anderson, Indiana, last month.Shawn Abernathy and his fiance Tiffany found the truck listed on Facebook Marketplace by a page called AMS Car Sales."It was a 1997 Ford F250 it looked brand new. I mean they sent us a video of it it ran beautiful," Abernathy said.After several emails with the owner, who claimed to be a widow, they paid ,200."They asked us to get six eBay cards at 0 a piece to do the down payment. The agreement was we would get the down payment paid and the vehicle would be delivered," Abernathy said.Abernathy was then asked to pay even more money."When we declined they said hold on we will put you over to the financial department and the phone went dead," Abernathy said. "I was pretty upset. I buckled. It tore me up. It destroyed our Christmas. We're still trying to recover from it. Twelve-hundred dollars is a pretty good loss."The manager of AMS Cars on the west side of Indianapolis at 10th Street and Raceway Road said his business has received thousands of phone calls from customers asking about vehicles they found on fake Facebook posts. Their message is if the car is not on their official website, it is not available."A lot of angry customers," AMS Cars manager Sam Sodhi said. "A majority of our time, about 5-7 people that work here go in every day to explain to people whether they are on on the phone email, text message, walk in, 'Hey, kindly report it. Please help us.'"Sodhi said AMS Cars received more than 8,000 phone calls in December about cars they don't have in stock. They posted a scam warning online and recorded a message that plays when customers call their office.Sodhi said he wants customers to do their research, Google the cars VIN number, know the difference between the two Facebook pages and always check their website to verify the vehicle.Scripps station WRTV in Indianapolis is waiting on a response from Facebook to see if anything can be done about the AMS Car Sales page. Sodhi said fake pages have been deleted over the past month, but new ones reappear.The FBI said scams like this are increasing and it is up to the victim to report a scam, which Abernathy has done."I hope it goes away, I hope it never comes back to us or anyone else," Sodhi said. 2312

In recent months, states across the country have been passing laws designed to make it harder — and in some cases, nearly impossible — to get an abortion.So Shelley O'Brien, manager of The Yale Hotel in the tiny Michigan town of Yale, made an offer to anyone traveling out of their state for the procedure: Come to Michigan and stay at her hotel for free."Dear sisters that live in Alabama, Ohio, Georgia, Arkansas, Missouri, or any of the other states that follow with similar laws restricting access, We cannot do anything about the way you are being treated in your home-state," the post reads."But, if you can make it to Michigan, we will support you with several nights lodging, and transportation to and from your appointment," the post reads.It was a bold stance for the mother of three to take in her largely conservative town that's home to fewer than 2,000 people. But O'Brien said she felt it was important."Women should have autonomy over their own bodies," she said. "If we do not have control over our own bodies, then this is not a free world."The Yale Hotel's Facebook post has since received thousands of shares and hundreds of comments. Responses have been mostly positive, O'Brien said, though she has gotten some pushback from online trolls and others.So far, O'Brien said no one has taken her up on the offer, though she has a room ready for anyone who needs it. She said she's calling it "Jane's Room" -- a nod to Jane Roe, the pseudonym for Norma McCorvey, the plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court case Roe v. Wade.The offer has, however, been good for business. In the weekend after she made the post on Facebook, she said she made 0 more than the week before.In the past few months, Alabama passed a near-total ban on abortion, while states including Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Ohio have passed "heartbeat" bills that ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected.Earlier this week, Republicans in the Michigan state Senate introduced 1995

Independence Day fireworks bring joy to millions of Americans over the week of July 4. It is a holiday that Americans unite to celebrate their independence. But celebrating America's independence could cause trauma for those who have fought for America's independence. The Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that between 11 and 20 percent of those who served in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars return home with PTSD. The V.A. said that 12 percent of Desert Storm veterans and 15 percent of Vietnam War vets also have PTSD. While a number of instance can trigger someone to have PTSD, the loud bangs that fireworks cause can be of particular concern for combat veterans.The V.A. says that PTSD can cause veterans to have upsetting memories, feel on edge, or have trouble sleeping. Since 2015, the non-profit group Military with PTSD has distributed yard signs informing neighbors that a veteran with PTSD lives nearby. The signs state "Combat Veteran Lives Here, Please Be Courteous with Fireworks."The signs are distributed nationwide, and can be ordered online. “Courteous to me means remembering that you are not the only one living in your neighborhood," said Jon Dykes, the veteran who made the first sign. "America celebrates our independence on the 4th of July. Not the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 7th of July. Some fireworks are expected, and that’s OK. I understand; but not 24 hours a day.”For more information on how to obtain a sign, click 1468
