    In this Thursday, June 14, 2012 photo, NYPD Officer Reggie Hilaire, 41, poses for a picture in New York. Hilaire spent time looking for human remains right after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and later developed multiple cancers. Several experts say there's no hard evidence to support the federal government's declaration this month that 50 kinds of cancer could be caused by exposure to World Trade Center dust. The decision could help hundreds of people get payouts from a multibillion-dollar World Trade Center health fund to repay those ailing after they breathed in toxic dust created by the collapsing twin towers on Sept. 11, 2001.

    FILE - In this Aug. 26, 1968 file photo, Chicago police officers confront a demonstrator on the ground at Grant Park in Chicago during the city's hosting of the Democratic National Convention. Chicago police officers will be facing big challenges when protesters descend on the city for the upcoming summit of NATO leaders May 20-21, 2012. The force boasts of embracing modern techniques and groundbreaking crowd-control strategies but has never completely shaken its reputation for brutality and misconduct. The coming protests also are the big test for Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy, a former ranking commander in the New York City Police Department and protege of NYPD Commissioner William Bratton, who Mayor Rahm Emanuel selected last year to lead Chicago?s 12,000-member force. Even before McCarthy?s arrival, the Chicago department has been trying to upgrade its tactics and procedures for years. A department that failed to adequately train, equip or even feed officers during the Democratic National Convention of 1968, took pains to make sure the mistakes of the past would not be repeated.
