Jennifer Medina says the CHP and sheriff's deputies shot her husband 37-times, killing him, after a low-speed chase in what she calls a case of racial profiling. Medina was hispanic. She filed a federal civil rights lawsuit here in San Diego last week, asking for punitive and other damages.

Media reports at the time said that police shot a "suspected drunken-driver," that refused to pull over but then later noted that at least one of the officers involved was the subject of an excessive force investigation.

The family and their lawyers have more information on the case at http://justice4medina.com.

The line for Hellboy 2 was long at the AMC 20 at Mission Valley, but we got there early -- only 15 or so people in front of us.

My thing, though, is why are those self-serve kiosks always broken? The line for tickets was a lot longer.

Not that the line is any shorter when they are working. I'm not sure why people avoid using them -- they're super simple and so much quicker than waiting for one teenage girl to get tickets for 40 people ahead of you.

But then, I think I'm pretty smart. Like grocery stores, this should catch on.

The movie, btw, was cool.

I guess some parents (or au pairs, judging by the mall's clientele) need extra guidance. I took this with my iPhone at the mall, on the back of a stroller. I don't think I need to say much more.

So have a happy and safe holiday, and we'll see you on Monday.

He's way better than I am, or I would be, if I surfed. Maybe soon?
