Police Policy Manual Blue Ash Police Department Blue Ash PD Policy Manual CHIEF'S PREFACE The Blue Ash Police Department abides by a policy manual that is current and that is constantly evolving. This policy manual provides our officers with the framework and expectations that assist us in the performance of our daily duties as we strive to provide excellent public service. With guidance from Lexipol, we have established a policy manual that contains nationally accepted police practices and principles. The courageous men and women of the Blue Ash Police Department are held to the highest standards and the expectation is that all officers will perform their duties in the most professional, legal, moral, and ethical manner possible. We also acknowledge that no policy manual can cover every situation and we understand law enforcement is a dynamic and often times, a rapidly evolving profession that is difficult if not impossible to anticipate all circumstances that may occur. The expectation is that our officers will utilize sound judgment, training, and resourcefulness as they apply these policies. Deviation from this policy manual may be accepted under certain circumstances. Using problem solving skills, creativity, and sound judgment, all actions taken by our employees should be reasonable and reflect the mission statement of our department. The expectation is that every member of the Blue Ash Police Department reads, understands, and accepts the standards that this manual provides. It is the responsibility of all members of the police department to provide insight and feedback as we constantly review our policies in order to stay current with changing standards that include but are not limited to legal updates, police best practices, and changes in community standards. The Blue Ash Police Department takes pride in being a leader in the law enforcement community. Through personal and professional development we strive to constantly improve our performance. We will continue to provide exceptional service to our community. We value our community partners and look forward to working together to make Blue Ash a model for others to follow. Scott D.

Chief's Preface - 1 Published with permission by Blue Ash Police Department Blue Ash Police Department Blue Ash PD Policy Manual LAW ENFORCEMENT CODE OF ETHICS As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve the community; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation and the peaceful against abuse or disorder; and to respect the constitutional rights of all to liberty, equality and justice. I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all and will behave in a manner that does not bring discredit to me or to my agency. I will maintain courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed both in my personal and official life, I will be exemplary in obeying the law and the regulations of my department. Whatever I see or hear of a confidential nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, political beliefs, aspirations, animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or abuse and never accepting gratuities. I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of police service. I will never engage in acts of corruption or bribery, nor will I condone such acts by other police officers. I will cooperate with all legally authorized agencies and their representatives in the pursuit of justice. I know that I alone am responsible for my own standard of professional performance and will take every reasonable opportunity to enhance and improve my level of knowledge and competence. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession . law enforcement. Copyright Lexipol, LLC 2021/06/29, All Rights Reserved.

  • Mapping Black Ash Dominated Stands Using Geospatial and Forest Inventory Data in Northern Minnesota, USA Peder S
    892 ARTICLE Mapping black ash dominated stands using geospatial and forest inventory data in northern Minnesota, USA Peder S. Engelstad, Michael J. Falkowski, Anthony W. D’Amato, Robert A. Slesak, Brian J. Palik, Grant M. Domke, and Matthew B. Russell Abstract: Emerald ash borer (EAB; Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, 1888) has been a persistent disturbance for ash forests in the United States since 2002. Of particular concern is the impact that EAB will have on the ecosystem functioning of wetlands dominated by black ash (Fraxinus nigra Marsh.). In preparation, forest managers need reliable and complete maps of black ash dominated stands. Traditionally, forest survey data from the United States Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Program have provided rigorous measures of tree species at large spatial extents but are limited when providing estimates for smaller management units (e.g., stands). Fortunately, geospatial data can extend forest survey information by generating predictions of forest attributes at scales finer than those of the FIA sampling grid. In this study, geospatial data were integrated with FIA data in a randomForest model to estimate and map black ash dominated stands in northern Minnesota in the United States. The model produced low error rates (overall error = 14.5%; area under the curve (AUC) = 0.92) and was strongly informed by predictors from soil saturation and phenology. These results improve upon FIA-based spatial estimates at national extents by providing forest managers with accurate, fine-scale maps (30 m spatial resolution) of black ash stand dominance that could ultimately support landscape-level EAB risk and vulnerability assessments. Key words: compound topographic index (CTI), remote sensing, black ash, emerald ash borer, forest inventory.

  • Women in Film Time: Forty Years of the Alien Series (1979–2019)
    IAFOR Journal of Arts & Humanities Volume 6 – Issue 2 – Autumn 2019 Women in Film Time: Forty Years of the Alien Series (1979–2019) Susan George, University of Delhi, India. Abstract Cultural theorists have had much to read into the Alien science fiction film series, with assessments that commonly focus on a central female ‘heroine,’ cast in narratives that hinge on themes of motherhood, female monstrosity, birth/death metaphors, empire, colony, capitalism, and so on. The films’ overarching concerns with the paradoxes of nature, culture, body and external materiality, lead us to concur with Stephen Mulhall’s conclusion that these concerns revolve around the issue of “the relation of human identity to embodiment”. This paper uses these cultural readings as an entry point for a tangential study of the Alien films centring on the subject of time. Spanning the entire series of four original films and two recent prequels, this essay questions whether the Alien series makes that cerebral effort to investigate the operations of “the feminine” through the space of horror/adventure/science fiction, and whether the films also produce any deliberate comment on either the lived experience of women’s time in these genres, or of film time in these genres as perceived by the female viewer. Keywords: Alien, SF, time, feminine, film 59 IAFOR Journal of Arts & Humanities Volume 6 – Issue 2 – Autumn 2019 Alien Films that Philosophise Ridley Scott’s 1979 S/F-horror film Alien spawned not only a remarkable forty-year cinema obsession that has resulted in six specific franchise sequels and prequels till date, but also a considerable amount of scholarly interest around the series.

  • Aliens, Predators and Global Issues: the Evolution of a Narrative Formula
    CULTURA , LENGUAJE Y REPRESENTACIÓN / CULTURE , LANGUAGE AND REPRESENTATION ˙ ISSN 1697-7750 · VOL . VIII \ 2010, pp. 43-55 REVISTA DE ESTUDIOS CULTURALES DE LA UNIVERSITAT JAUME I / CULTURAL STUDIES JOURNAL OF UNIVERSITAT JAUME I Aliens, Predators and Global Issues: The Evolution of a Narrative Formula ZELMA CATALAN SOFIA UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT : The article tackles the genre of science fiction in film by focusing on the Alien and Predator series and their crossover. By resorting to “the fictional worlds” theory (Dolezel, 1998), the relationship between the fictional and the real is examined so as to show how these films refract political issues in various symbolic ways, with special reference to the ideological construct of “global threat”. Keywords: film, science fiction, narrative, allegory, otherness, fictional worlds. RESUMEN : en este artículo se aborda el género de la ciencia ficción en el cine mediante el análisis de las películas de la serie Alien y Predator y su combinación. Utilizando la teoría de “los mundos ficcionales” (Dolezel, 1999), se examina la relación entre los planos ficcional y real para mostrar cómo estas películas reflejan cuestiones políticas de diversas formas simbólicas, con especial referencia a la construccción ideológica de la “amenaza global”. Palabras clave: film, ciencia ficción, narrativa, alegoría, alteridad, mundos fic- cionales In 2004 20th Century Fox released Alien vs. Predator, directed by Paul Anderson and starring Sanaa Latham, Lance Henriksen, Raoul Bova and Ewen Bremmer. The film combined and continued two highly successful film series: those of the 1979 Alien and its three successors Aliens (1986), Alien 3 (1992) and Alien Resurrection (1997), and of the two Predator movies, from 1987 and 1990 respectively.

  • Alien Movie Franchise
    Bellies that Go Bump in the Night The Gothic Curriculum of Essential Motherhood in the Alien Movie Franchise KELLY WALDROP The Publish House OR CENTURIES, authors and storytellers have used Gothic tales to educate readers about F all manner of subjects, but one of the most common of those subjects is the question of what it means to be human (Bronfen, 2014). The Gothic genre was born amidst the transition from the Victorian era to the Modern era with all of the attendant social and cultural changes, as well as the anxieties, that came along with those changes (Riquelme, 2014). It is a genre rooted in the exploration of anxieties regarding social and cultural change. Taking two of the earliest examples from the European Gothic tradition, Dracula (Stoker, 1897) teaches readers about the dangers of a rampant and virulent sexuality (Riquelme, 2000), while Frankenstein (Shelley, 1818) warns of both obsessiveness and pride, among many other readings of the various cultural anxieties that may be seen to be aired in these works. In these classic Gothic tales, a key focus is also the horrific results of an out-of-control and “unnatural” form of reproduction. In Dracula, part of the horror is rooted in a generative process that is outside of that of the male/female sex act that produces a child. The women in the story are either victims of the tale (Jonathan Harker’s fiancé) or are depicted as frighteningly sexual while incapable of producing what would be considered normal offspring (Dracula’s brides). In Frankenstein, likewise, the central source of horror is the product of a man usurping the “natural” order of creation.

  • Alien Spotting Lucy Was Standing in Ash's Bedroom. the Walls Were
    Alien Spotting Lucy was standing in Ash’s bedroom. The walls were covered in film posters and the shelves on the walls were full of comic books and graphic novels. “So, you into your comics then?” Lucy asked. “Oh, yeah,” Ash said as he looked to the floor. Lucy could tell he was embarrassed all of a sudden. “I think that’s cool,” Lucy said quickly to lighten the mood. Ash looked up again. “You do?” “Yeah, sure,” she said. “I don’t own many but the ones I do have I love. I was kind of getting into them before…” “Before what?” asked Ash. “Before I found out my life was getting ripped apart and I’d have to move.” “Hey,” Ash said, smiling at Lucy. “You can borrow any comic you like. As long as it comes back in mint condition.” Ash spun around and headed towards his wardrobe. “Okay, so this is all of the information I have got so far on Number 5.” He opened the wardrobe doors and removed all of his clothes from the rail. Behind them, Lucy could see maps and photos covered the back of the wardrobe. Ash then reached underneath the wardrobe and pulled out a black book. He opened it to show her pages and pages of dates, times and notes. “See,” Ash said, pointing to his book. “I have listed down all the weird stuff I have seen over the last year.” “Do your mum and dad know you have this at the back of your wardrobe?” asked Lucy.

  • EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Decapitation
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Decapitation. Dismemberment. Serial killers. Graphic gore. Hey, Kids! COMICS!! Since the release of The Dark Knight film series and the 22 movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, comic-book characters have become wildly popular in other forms of entertainment, particularly television. But broadcast TV’s representations of comic-book characters are no longer the bright, colorful, and optimistic figures of the past. Children are innately attracted to comic-book characters; but in today’s comic book-based programs, children are being exposed to graphic violence, profanity, dark and intense themes, and other inappropriate content. In this research report, the PTC examined comic book-themed prime-time programming on the maJor broadcast networks during November, February, and May “sweeps” periods from November 2012 through May 2019. Programs examined were Fox’s Gotham; CW’s Arrow, Black Lightning, The Flash, Supergirl, DC’s Legends oF Tomorrow, and Riverdale; and ABC’s Marvel’s Agents oF S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel’s Agent Carter, and Marvel’s Inhumans. Research data suggest that broadcast television programs based on these comic-book characters, created and intended for children, are increasingly inappropriate and/or unsafe for young viewers. In its research, the PTC found the following during the study period: • In comic book-themed programming with particular appeal to children, young viewers were exposed to over 6,000 incidents of violence, over 500 deaths, and almost 2,000 profanities. • The most violent program was CW’s Arrow. Young viewers witnessed 1,241 acts of violence, including 310 deaths, 280 instances of gun violence, and 26 scenes of people being tortured.

This study has also determined that there exists a relationship between these differing gender representations and concurrent changes in the gender norms of films created for the primary target audience the United States with secondary international audiences. This determination was aided by a detailed examination of the gender norms in multiple genres including science fiction, action, horror, and hybrid mixtures of these three.
