 release the principal on the principal's own recognizance,  release  the
 principal  under non-monetary conditions, or, where authorized, fix bail

 select  the  least  restrictive  alternative and condition or conditions
 that will reasonably assure the principal's return to court.  The  court
 shall  explain  its  choice of release, release with conditions, bail or
 remand on the record [or] AND in writing. In making  its  determination,
