With any communicable disease outbreak -- like COVID-19 -- testing is critical to slowing the spread, San Bernardino County health of¦cials said. Testing leads to quick identi¦cation of cases, quick treatment for those people who are diagnosed positive, and immediate isolation to keep someone from unwittingly spreading the virus. Early testing also helps to identify any persons who came into contact with infected people so they too can be quickly treated. The testing is from June 29 to July 31, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (closed July 3). ----- IN ONTARIO, indoor testing is at the Ontario Convention Center, 1947 Convention Center Way. The testing is from June 29 to Aug. 31, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (closed July 3). ----- IN RIALTO, indoor testing is at the Department of Behavioral Health Auditorium, 850 E. Foothill Boulevard. The testing is from June 29 to Aug. 18, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (closed July 3). The county is encouraging all residents, including those who have experienced no symptoms of COVID-19, to be tested for the coronavirus. "Data is showing that a signi¦cant proportion of those infected with the virus are asymptomatic, meaning they show no symptoms of the disease. Because of this, virtually anyone could spread the disease to others. That’s why everyone needs to get tested," the county said in a news release. At the county's testing events, samples are collected by inserting a swab up the nostril or into the mouth to the throat. These samples are then sent to a laboratory to check for COVID-19. Events are free of charge and do not require health insurance. ----- IN FONTANA, testing is at the Jessie Turner Center, 15556 Summit Avenue. The indoor testing is from June 29 to July 31, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (closed July 2-3, 7, and 10). Appointment registration will open soon for the week of July 6-9. All clients are required to wear a face covering for their appointment. Appointments can be made by calling (909) 387-3911 or by visiting sbcovid19.com. ----- IN BLOOMINGTON, testing is taking place at Ayala Park, 18313 Valley Boulevard.

    City of Kingsville, Texas Staff Report (A Publication of the City Manager’s Office) Monday, July 14, 2014 “Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.” Thomas Jefferson, www.brainyquote.com “Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.” John F. Kennedy, www.12manage.com FOCUS ON EMPLOYEES (Courtesy of Vince Capell, City Manager) Good Job Award!!! Sometimes it’s the little things that matter most. I experienced this personally with the good folks at the City’s Landfill. It was early on a Thursday morning and I was trying to get out of town to attend an annual conference of city managers. Before I could leave, my wife tasked me with taking some items to the Landfill. When I arrived at the scale house it had been raining off- and-on for hours. Since my debris wasn’t of great Timothy (Tim) Flores significance, Timothy (Tim) Flores, Equipment Equipment Operator II Operator II, suggested that I drive to the opposite Landfill side of the scale house and place the items in the dumpster to avoid the muddy dump site. As far as I was concerned that helpful advice earned Tim an “ A+” grade and a “gold star” right from the beginning. As Tim offered I pulled my pickup truck around the scale house and parked it next to the dumpster. I exited the cab, pulled back the tarp, climbed onto the back of the truck and began placing items into the dumpster.

  • Uniform Crime Reporting Handbook
    U.S. Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Uniform Crime Reporting Handbook Revised 2004 EDITORIAL NOTE: The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program staff of the FBI worked for over three years on the revision of the UCR handbook. Individuals from the various units that make up the national UCR Program read, reviewed, and made suggestions during this long endeavor. Our goal was to make the handbook user friendly as well as educationally sound. From a pedagogical standpoint, we tried to present one concept at a time and not overwhelm the user with too much information at once. Consequently, classifying and scoring are presented in two separate chapters. The user can learn first how to classify the Part I offenses and then how to score them. For easy reference, we consolidated explanations of important UCR concepts, such as jurisdiction, hierarchy, and separation of time and place, in one chapter. We retained many of the examples with which users are already familiar, and we also updated many of the examples so they better reflect the American society of the twenty-first century. Further, where possible, we tried to align summary and National Incident- Based Reporting System (NIBRS) ideas and definitions to help emphasize that summary and NIBRS are part of the same UCR Program. Listening to suggestions from users of this manual, we added an Index as a quick-reference aid and a Glossary; however, we were cautious to retain standard UCR definitions. The national UCR Program thanks the many substance review- ers from various state UCR Programs for their time and for their constructive comments.

    BURGLARY REDUCTION: FINDINGS FROM SAFER CITIES SCHEMES NICK TILLEY JANICE WEBB POLICE RESEARCH GROUP CRIME PREVENTION UNIT SERIES: PAPER NO.51 LONDON: HOME OFFICE POLICE DEPARTMENT Editor: Gloria Laycock Home Office Police Research Group 50 Queen Anne’s Gate London SW1H 9AT © Crown Copyright 1994 First Published 1994 Police Research Group: Crime Prevention Unit Series The Home Office Police Research Group (PRG) was formed in 1992 to carry out and manage research in the social and management sciences relevant to the work of the police service and Home Office policy divisions. One of the major police department divisions which acts as customer for the PRG is the Home Office Crime Prevention Unit which was formed in 1983 to promote preventive action against crime. It has a particular responsibility to disseminate information on crime prevention topics. The object of the present series of occasional papers is to present research material in a way which should help and inform practitioners, including the police, whose work can help reduce crime. ISBN 1 85893 176 2 (ii) Foreword The Home Office Safer Cities projects have sponsored an enormous range of schemes in their project areas covering a wide diversity of offences. This report reviews a selection of the relatively more substantial attempts to reduce domestic burglary. The assessment of the schemes was constrained by the availability of data locally. In some areas, for example, the police beat boundaries did not coincide with the scheme boundaries, or ‘pre-implementation’ data was only partially available. Nevertheless, some useful conclusions have been drawn which testify to the enthusiasm which can be tapped within communities to tackle this most damaging and intrusive offence.
