British react negatively to police enforcement mindset
2009-09-04 11:58:00 The following incident is extremely unlikely since the range of police laser is inherently limited. The jet in question would have had to have been closer than the treeline in the photo. And it would have been both illegal and dangerous for the police officer to have used his laser anyway. But it does highlight the growing public disgust in Britain for police enforcement measures that rely on unmanned measures (photo radar) and equipment with inherent limitations and accuracy only in very narrow scenarios (traffic laser). Many feel that there is a disproportionate reliance on these tools. An increasing number of examples showing their technical faults as well as the poor training and agressive methods of many public officials highlight these weaknesses. So this article is in itself "true British laconic style". But the question on our minds is when will the Brits stand up to these Gestapo police methods and demand their r...

Law enforcement quote of the week
2009-07-11 14:11:00 "These are tough economic times for everyone, including bad guys...Sometimes, you get what you expect. Generally, you meet better people at church than you do at a strip club."Park Forest Police Chief Tom Fleming, referring to the arrest of 38-year-old Rachel Klootwyk for financial identity theft. Klootwyk met her victim while working as a dancer at a strip club. Klootwyk talked the victim into paying some of her bills for her, obtained the victim's information as a result, and subsequently made $3,700 in unauthorized charges to the victim's bank account....
Cultural Norms As Law Enforcement Mechanism. Why Demand Letters Still Work
2009-07-07 13:12:00 Wikipedia defines a demand letter as a "letter stating a legal claim (usually drafted by a lawyer) which makes a demand for restitution or performance of some obligation, owing to the recipients' alleged breach of contract, or for a legal wrong." Typically, these letters conclude with the lawyer threatening to sue or the non-lawyer letter writer threatening to go his or her attorney. Such letters have become so commonplace in the United States that they most of the time fail to instill much fear into or much action from their recipient. I know of some lawyers who no longer will write such letters, believing that US companies will not seriously discuss any settlement until sued. I know of a company that manufactures a somewhat dangerous product and it receives maybe 100 lawsuit threatening letters a year from around the world. Before I started representing this company, they would respond to every letter by seeking a quick out of court settlement. I convinced them to change...

Mrs. Pelosi: Imigration Enforcement is Unpatriotic
2009-03-18 21:06:00 Mrs. Pelosi, a/k/a Speaker Table Cloth, evidently thinks it is acceptable to pander to illegals, and their supporters, by insulting our Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents, from Real Clear Politics: Appearing in front of a group of legal and illegal immigrants at a church in San Francisco, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said it is “un-American” to enforce current US immigration law Video: Now let me see if I can get the gist of what Speaker Table Cloth is saying, and not saying. Having imigrations laws on the books is not unpatriotic. However actually enforcing said laws somehow is unpatriotic? Well nobody has ever accused Mrs. Pelosi of being smart. Congressman Lamar Smith(Texas - Twenty One), courtesy of Michelle: “The Wall Street Journal recently reported that Speaker Pelosi called worksite arrests and deportation of illegal workers ‘un-American.’ That’s quite a powerful word - ‘un-American.’ And it’s quite a spectacle to have th...

Phantom Law Enforcement...
2008-04-03 05:07:00 No one likes being in a police station. But in the town of Homestead, Pennsylvania, even the officers sometimes have that feeling of dread. Why? Because the station is believed to be haunted.Everything from footsteps to doors slamming has been experienced inside the building by workers. The door leading to the attic mysteriously opens no matter how many times it is bolted shut. A typewriter has a habit of operating under its own volition. Icy breezes blow through the old cell blocks. Even outside the building, a snow blower recently started up... even though it had no key or battery.Employees finally want proof that they aren't going insane. They've called in the Greater Pittsburgh Paranormal Society to find evidence of a haunting. They claim to have made a discovery in the boiler room (which happens to be a 'hot spot' for activity), though they are waiting to release their findings at a later date.

Elder Abuse - F.B.I. Law Enforcement Bulletin - "Protecting the Elderly fro
2008-03-06 16:17:00 Investing in the future:"Protecting the elderly from financial abuse."The FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin -"©2007 CNET Networks, Inc. All rights reserved. Used by permission." Over the years, a shift in law enforcement priorities, as well as an increase in general awareness, has made most officers familiar with the concepts of spousal abuse and child abuse. Still, the term elder abuse raises questions among even the most seasoned law enforcement officers. From physical, emotional, or sexual abuse to financial exploitation, approximately 818,000 elderly individuals are victimized annually.Furthermore, experts estimate that only 1 in 10 cases of elder abuse gets reported.(1) Many elderly citizens must contend with a variety of health problems that limit their physical or mental functioning. Some become bedridden and cut off from normal contact with the rest of the world. At the same time, mental limitations leave many older citizens highly vulnerable to various forms of abuse.In Tennesse...

2008-01-16 01:47:00 Like those little stickies that say "Sign Here," the witty Visual Enforcement Kit points out (with excruciating detail) what needs attention, in this case in the world of 2D design. For anyone who's faced more than their share of design that needs help, the downloadable pdfs provide handy pre-printed critiques like, "Severe lack of creativity" and "Kern this!" We particularly like "Hire a copywriter" and "Do not get en and em dashes mixed up."While the stickers might make crits easier (if you were to actually use them), they probably won't make them much less painful. Either way, they're sure to get a chuckle from any frustrated designer or art director faced with the predictable set of errors and equally predictable responses. via Newstoday
