As many law enforcement candidates can vouch for, taking the police entrance exam can be a stressful and highly competitive experience. I decided to research some preparation web sites and purchased several E-books on the topic to get a better understanding of what it takes to become a police officer. One thing that I quickly realized was that there were plenty of sources of material available for anyone seriously interested in a future in law enforcement.According to Augie Caamano, owner of PoliceQuiz.com, "Becoming a police officer has become extremely difficult due to the number of applicants applying these days." Caamano also stated "I try to assist these candidates by walking them through...

Law enforcement recently has been following the general tide of government and public service groundswell by seeking computing solutions in the Linux direction. Particularly in law enforcement, their needs match well with open source software. They have to work lean on a taxpayer's budget, and open source is free or low cost. They need top security, and Linux is still the highest-scoring operating software in official government assessments. They need mission-critical reliability, and Linux is so stable, it doesn't just outrank the competition in stability - it makes the competition disappear! Some recent examples of law enforcement agencies finding a solution in open source: * Kent Police have...

I don't currently advocate road rage. Laying on the horn, swearing like a sailor, and swerving around the slow guy in the passing lane is not my style. Of course, tastes change over time, so I'd like to reserve the right to practice road rage in the future. But understand this: It won't be the slow guy in the passing lane that sets me off. Instead, it will be stupid parents.You know the ones I'm talking about. You see them on interstate highways and city streets and country roads. You point them out to your spouse, and explain their poor judgment to your children. At least I hope you do. These are the parents who drive with unrestrained kids in the car, ones who let Little Bobby climb over the...

Ever since the Rodney King incident, the world at large has become increasingly aware of police brutality. One would presume that mass public awareness would stem such aggressive behavior from law enforcement officers, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Police officers, if anything, have only become more careful in how they verbally and physically abuse the general public. Most U.S. residents don't realize there is a simple method to combat such abuse. In fact, this particular expression of public-power can immobilize an officer's career and, in extreme cases, bring an abrupt end to the officer's employment; yes, you can get a police officer fired if you so desire. If an officer is unnecessarily...

In a small, white collar suburban community just outside of Salt Lake City, Utah the ex- offender we spoke with (he asked us to keep his identity confidential) had been a model citizen, receiving promotion after promotion at work, avoiding all negative influences from his prior life, and even started his own foundation to assist in the rehabilitation of fellow Federal and State offenders. He was released from probation, had moved on in a world where he would finally be able to be productive and could use the skills and tools that he learned to assist the less fortunate. Life was good..His success hasn't come easily. The light haired 38-year-old is an ex-offender who had served in the Federal...

Police academy training videos help in supporting and supplementing the justice system of a state.The video training sections of police academies have the duty to produce videos for different stages in police training. These videos are used for internal training sessions as well as selling out to other law enforcement agencies. Recruit training is videotaped and...

Particularly since 9-11-2001 there has been an increase in discussion of self defense in our country and others. Southern Delaware is wonderfully safe, secure and peaceful but there is still some discussion of self defense and self protection issues here. Our senior citizens and single people of any age are often first to feel threatened and that makes the single senior citizen the most concerned according to my experience. A few years ago I spent a year or so helping to set up and manage a couple of very large Neighborhood Watch and Community Watch groups in areas of predominantly older singles and senior citizens. I am active in several national and international forums where professionals from...

Whether or not a military force (or paramilitary force) is properly equipped to handle crisis situations in an ethical manner is a question that is truly worthy of consideration. Before asking oneself this question, however, it is imperative that leaders are certain that their organizations are grounded upon a solid, impermeable ethical foundation. Ethical conduct simply cannot be expected within an organization that is under pressure if it is not expected when the organization is simply involved in daily, commonplace operations.Police services and the military have enormous powers conferred upon them by the state. Each has the ability to restrict or remove individual liberty and both have the...

The "hard" skills necessary for an executive protection specialist (EPS) and/or personal protection specialist (PPS) are often perceived as being that of a policeman or (elite) soldier. Though there can be certain similarities i.e. the use of handguns, hand-to-hand combat and the ability to control a vehicle, most people having worked both in executive protection and either of the latter careers, will deny that the skills are parallel. They may look alike but the methodology of each skill differs from segment to segment.However, the psychological skills needed are almost identical. Knowing basic psychological skills is essential in this line of business, as it is in law enforcement and military...

It's a question that we went back and forth with for awhile ourselves many moons ago. The "how" and "why" of our conclusions may be of some interest. Whether or not anyone agrees with them, well at the least you'll fully understand the basis for them.The question is this:Why does Fairbairn stress the straight thumb in line with the barrel, even for one handed shooting?Years ago when we first began our attempt to sort out the mechanics, methods and reasoning behind this type of shooting we had the exact same question! It really is an excellent question.We need a little history here. When a group of us started to "experiement" with this method of shooting we had all been indoctrinated and trained in...

Yes, you read that right. It is Cops n Rodders and certainly not Cops n Robbers. Cops n Rodders is an annual benefit car show that is hosted by the Cuyahoga Community College Western Campus.

CULTS, NOT THE OCCULTWhat's the difference? I've heard many people attempt to use these two words interchangeably and, often, inappropriately.Quite simply, the word "occult" is derived from a Latin word (occultus) that means, basically, "that which is hidden." The word "cult," on the other hand, comes from a word which means "to cultivate." In other words, to break down and train up in accordance with the prescribed method. That's what this article is all about.DEFINING THE CULTSMany years ago, as I was devouring every spiritual thing I could get my hands on (good and bad), I wound up involved with a group that 20/20's Barbara Walters later referred to as "the fastest growing cult in America." The...

Maj. Dean Eckmann is a soft-spoken North Dakota native whose lifelong love for military aviation transformed him, in one profound moment on September 11, 2001, into what he acknowledges to be "an eyewitness to history, to the day that changed all of America, forever."On the morning of 9/11, Eckmann, 36, was with his Fargo-based 119th Fighter Pilot Wing at Virginia's Langley Air Force Base for a routine week-long 'alert dispatch' to protect seven American sites tagged, in "post-Cold War and pre-9/11 naivete," he says, as potential targets.At the unmistakable blare of a Klaxon horn, he abandoned his scheduled training mission and was ordered to his fully armed fighter jet, and became the first pilot...

A security guard or security officer is, usually, a privately-employed person who is employed to protect property and/or people. Usually security guards are uniformed and act to protect property by maintaining a high visibility presence and observing (either directly, through patrols, or by watching alarm systems or video cameras) for signs of crime, fire or disorder; then taking action and/or reporting any incidents to their client, employer and emergency services as appropriate. The security officer motto is to "detect, deter, observe and report." Security officers are not normally required to make arrests (but has the authority to make a citizens arrest) or otherwise act as police officers except...

This person started out in traffic at the Los Angeles Police Department then later on transferred to the Special Weapons and Tactics or SWAT team.The unit where Richard was assigned in saw a lot of action even though this group is only called in as a last resort to end a siege. This made the individual ready to confront anyone, which is one of the things employers look for in recruiting a private detective.Someone called the office one day and asked if Richard was interested in this position. Sensing this could be something exciting, this person went down to the employer's office to get an idea of the things that are happening.The private...

The future car, lets say a 2025 model will be a very different machine to its present day Grandfather. They will be packed with computers and safety devices ensuring that not even a stunt driver can crash, and they will run on carbon dioxide and emit strawberry scented oxygen. Well they might.Predictions of future vehicles are usually wildly inaccurate, by now we should all have space programs to rival NASA based out of our backyard. However some of the automobile related cutting edge technology emerging now may well make it into production models of the future. But how much of this technology will be needed or even wanted? Car design of the present is already influenced by politicians, bureaucrats...

If you opt to become a police officer, a fire department person, or work with explosives, you probably expect that stress in some form will come with the job. However, in other types of jobs stress can come from many sources. 1. Overload. With too much work and too little time, stress is inevitable. This may be either a permanent or temporary situation. If temporary, you can probably cope with it. If permanent, tell your supervisor it is too much. If that doesn't bring results, consider looking for another job, as stress builds with repetition. 2. Noise. Few jobs are located next to a junk yard or a sound stage where bands with strange-sounding names are rehearsing. If you are unlucky enough to work...

For a considerable amount of time, nutrition has not played a prominent role in the life of many martial artists, police, and military personnel as a means of improving performance. Top athletes are always looking for an edge. Although the martial arts are more of a way of life and a life style than a sport per se, the needs of the martial artist are the same as that of the elite athlete.Mental aspects not withstanding (i.e. mental awareness, strategy, cunning, etc.), the need for speed, agility, strength, flexibility, and the ability to recuperate from tough workouts (and unforgiving sparing partners) is paramount to the success of athletes and martial artists alike. Police and military personnel...
