1 killed, 3 injured in shooting at California city council member's home

 

One person was killed and three others were injured in a shooting at the home of a city official in California, where an outdoor party was taking place early Saturday, police said.

 

A man was pronounced dead at the home of Gilroy City Council Member Rebeca Armendariz, and the three survivors were hospitalized, two with "life-threatening injuries," the Gilroy Police Department said in a statement

 

Gilroy Mayor Marie Blankley said in an email that Armendariz was not physically injured.

 

The violence occurred just before 1 a.m., when responding officers encountered a large, outdoor party, the department said. Police said they believe the gunfire was preceded by an altercation.

 

In a statement published by NBC Bay Area Saturday night, Armendariz said, "We are giving our full cooperation to the Gilroy Police Department in this investigation."

 

"Our primary concern is for the individuals impacted and their families, she said. "We hope the Gilroy community will come together with love and support for those touched by yesterday’s events at the appropriate time."

 

Gilroy, with a population of about 60,000, was once an agricultural town famed for being the self-proclaimed “Garlic Capital of the World." Now the city emphasizes its region, the Silicon Valley.

 

The city was the scene of a mass shooting in 2019, when a 19-year-old who had waded into white supremacy opened fire with a semiautomatic rifle at the annual Gilroy Garlic Festival, killing three, including two children, and injuring 12 before fatally shooting himself.

Elvira opens up on falling in love with a woman at 50: 'Life throws you curveballs'

Cassandra Peterson, the woman known best as Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, is opening up about a secret she has kept for almost two decades.

 

Every year at Halloween, there are certain pop cultural touchstones of the season that come back, reminding us why we love this holiday of ghosts and goblins so much. The Sanderson sisters of “Hocus Pocus.” The horrifying mask of Michael Myers. The sexually tempting ways of Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.

 

“The key to my longevity is definitely aligning with a national holiday,” Cassandra Peterson, the woman who has played Elvira since 1981, told TODAY.

 

When compared to Santa Claus, she responded: “Exactly, except without the beard.”

 

This year, as the leaves turn gold and pumpkin spice pops up everywhere, Peterson has made a shocking admission to the world: she has been in a relationship with a woman for almost two decades.

>Define 'Lifelog' [DARPA].

The goal of the META program is to substantially improve upon the existing systems engineering, integration, and testing process for defense systems. META is not predicated on one particular alternative approach, metric, technique, or tool. Broadly speaking, it aims to develop model-based design methods for cyber-physical systems far more complex and heterogeneous than those to which such methods are applied today; to combine these methods with a rigorous deployment of hierarchical abstractions throughout the system architecture; to optimize system design with respect to an observable, quantitative measure of complexity for entire cyber-physical systems; and to apply probabilistic formal methods to the system verification problem, thereby dramatically reducing the need for expensive real-world testing and design iteration.

 

The year one META effort was organized into multiple, independent technical research paths:

 

(MoC) Metric of Complexity: a practical, observable metric for cyber-physical systems to enable design trades, cyber-vs-physical implementation trades, and to improve parameterization of cost and schedule

(MoA) Metric of Adaptability: a quantative metric measuring the ability of a system to change easily, quickly, and inexpensively (i.e., with minimum incurrence of cost and degradation in performance) in response to a wide spectrum of anticipated and unanticipated perturbation events exogenous or endogenous to the system

(MetaL) Metalanguage for System Representation: a maximally expressive yet formal language applicable across a broad range of heterogeneous constituent components that is capable of characterizing software and electromechanical components

(DFT) Design Flow and Tools: a novel design flow that employs hierarchical abstraction and model-based composition of electromechanical and software components to achieve designs that are ultimately verifiable–at least in a probabilistic sense

(VFT) Verification Flow and Tools: a verification approach and enabling tools that generate probabilistic "certificates of correctness" for entire large-scale cyber-physical systems such as ground combat vehicles, airplanes, or rotorcraft based on stochastic formal methods, scaling no faster than linearly with problem complexity

Successive development on META has focused on developing an integrated software tool suite that exercises a novel design and verfication flow for the development of complex systems. The first substantial implementation of this new META tool suite, named CyPhy, was during the first DARPA Fast Adaptable Next-Generation Ground Vehicle (FANG) Challenge for the design of the drivetrain and mobility system of an amphibious infantry fighting vehicle.

 

(META-FANG1) META tool suite integrating MetaL, DFT, VFT and additional feature sets as implemented in DARPA FANG 1 Challenge.
