Summary and Conclusion. The San Diego Police Department (SDPD) has had a national reputation as a forward thinking, progressive, well-run agency. In fact, the SDPD was best known within the policing profession as the department that made problem-oriented policing a leading strategy that helped reduce violent crime rates by 50 percent nationwide. A number of high-profile incidents of police misconduct have challenged the SDPD to analyze what happened, identify the factors that contributed to the misconduct, and eliminate those conditions to prevent a recurrence of the problem. The significance of the misconduct scandals that the agency has faced beginning in 2011 go beyond the individual officers who broke the trust given to them. In other words, a number of flaws within the SDPD’s systems and policies enabled some of the misconduct to occur and continue without detection. The challenge facing San Diego is not merely the narrow task of preventing the specific types of misconduct that occurred from ever happening again. The SDPD has a broader, deeper task ahead of it: restoring the public’s trust. This involves not only creating technical systems such as a stronger early identification and intervention system (EIIS) to detect misconduct but also strengthening the culture within the department so that everyone inside the department, as well as the public, will know that there is no tolerance for misconduct. Experienced chiefs of police nationwide have said that misconduct will never be eliminated entirely, but measures can be taken to help prevent and deter misconduct, supervise officers more closely, detect signs of potentially prob- lematic behavior more quickly, and build a culture in which misconduct will be very difficult to commit and even more difficult to hide. SDPD’s new chief of police, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, appointed in 2014, has implemented a number of reforms, such as implementing a new written policy that requires officers to report any misconduct they become aware of and rebuilding the anti-corruption Professional Standards Unit. This report, which PERF conducted for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office), provides specific additional recommendations for new policies and practices to prevent officer misconduct. The recommendations are based not only on PERF’s analysis of SDPD policies and national best practices but also on interviews and meetings that PERF conducted with SDPD officials, community mem- bers, and ...
Summary and Conclusion. The conceptual models of information flow were designed to illustrate the flow of environmental information between local and central governments and local stakeholders in the decision making process. Decision making within the environmental sector is a highly complex process that relies on complex patterns of data exchange between stakeholders and local, regional and central levels of government. Understanding and quantifying these relationships is key to designing an effective decision support system to enable informed decisions. Environmental decisions The largest number of environmental issues overall involved habitat issues, on average 36% of issues identified by stakeholder groups and 49% of issues identified by local government. Although information was supplied for these decisions from all sources, for local governments these tended to be skewed towards government sources. Foresters and nature watcher stakeholders both made use of their own internal management plans or records for these decisions (26% and 28%, respectively), but also relied on government agencies, scientific studies and consultants for information for these decisions. Socio-economic issues were more important for the stakeholder groups (32% of issues) compared to the local government levels (23%). In particular nature watchers, farmers and recreational access stakeholder groups identified relatively more issues (an average of 42%). They used a variety of information sources for these decisions with particularly consultants (24%), scientific studies (19%) and the internet (14%) important for nature watchers, while farmers relied more on government sources (55% in total) instead of scientific studies and the internet, with consultants still quite important (27%). Recreational access stakeholders used all of the information sources for socio-economic decisions fairly evenly, as did the two levels of government. Decisions involving species were more important overall for stakeholder groups (average of 19% versus 6% for local government) and figured highly for hunters and fisheries stakeholders (average of 29% of decisions). These two stakeholder groups used a variety of information sources to make these decisions, consultants (17% for hunters and 18% for fisheries) and government agencies (19% for hunters, fisheries 27%) figuring highly. Interestingly farmers were the group that made the most use of scientific surveys for these types of decisions (29%). Hazard issues were relatively mo...

Summary and Conclusion. 151 BCNU's Section 19 applications raised a number of issues and objections which I have considered and decided for the reasons given above. My conclusions can be summarized as follows: • BCNU is not permitted to withdraw its PHSA application. That application is dismissed and a time bar imposed under Section 19(2) of the Code. • The employers for purposes of determining threshold support in this case are the Health Authorities, not the individual locations within the Health Authorities for which FBA member unions are certified. • There were not material misrepresentations which rendered the signing of BCNU membership cards conditional or equivocal. • The particular factual circumstances of this case give rise to a compelling reason to make an exception to the Board's general policies, and the unit applied for is therefore appropriate for collective bargaining. 152 Accordingly, the objections of HEU, BCGEU and IUOE to BCNU's six applications are dismissed. As it has been determined that there is threshold support for each of BCNU's six applications as required by Section 19(1), a mail ballot vote shall proceed on each of those applications and be counted subject to challenges.

Summary and Conclusion. The goal of the consultant was to assist Hudson County Community College in its consideration of the reintroduction of intercollegiate athletics, intramurals and club sports. This Final Report is a result of the analysis of information gleaned from meetings with each campus and external stakeholder group, and information gathered from Equity in Athletics Disclosure Reports of regional junior colleges in Region 19 of the National Junior College Athletic Association. I believe that HCCC is well-positioned to begin to start an intercollegiate athletics program in the 2025- 26 year. The rollout of sports is scheduled to reflect these two factors: • Popularity of sports in Hudson and surrounding counties and junior colleges • Ability to secure adequate appropriate facilities The suggested timeline for introduction of programs is as follows: Fall 2025 – Men’s and Women’s Basketball Fall 2026 – Men’s and Women’s Volleyball Men’s and Women’s Cross Country and Indoor and Outdoor Track & Field Fall 2027 – Men’s and Women’s Soccer Fall 2028 – Baseball and Softball While starting the program in the fall of 2024 year is possible, I feel it is better to wait until fall of 2025 for these reasons: • Tower gymnasium will be ready for use in fall 2025 • Fewer facilities issues in fall 2025 and 2026, with fewer conflicts and greater visibility • Important to have program success (administratively and wins-losses) initially, and facility assuredness gives greater chance to achieve • Starting program with on-campus basketball offers opportunity for campus “buzz”, visibility, and exciting rebirth as part of opening of new building • Important to have program success (administratively and wins-losses) initially, and facility assuredness gives greater chance to achieve • Starting program with on-campus basketball offers opportunity for campus “buzz”, visibility, and exciting rebirth as part of opening of new building • More time to hire Athletic Director and lay groundwork for athletics and recreation programs o Gain memberships in NJCAA, Region 19, and GSAC o Hire staff o Investigate potential appropriate practice and competition sites for sports o Develop internal and external information campaigns regarding reintroduction o Visit as many high schools in county and region as possible to develop relationships with athletic directors, coaches and guidance counselors o Develop recruiting plan for athletics programs o Assist in Tower Gym facilities modifications in order to properl...
Summary and Conclusion. Extraction of teeth leads to rapid decrease in residual bone width. Grafting the socket improves the prognosis to maintain the width and height of the remaining bone. To conclude from the present study, although so many techniques and materials are available for ridge preservation procedures, autologous platelet concentrates like concentrated growth factor shows effective hard tissue and soft tissue wound healing post operatively. It has of comparable significant value in preserving alveolar socket in both horizontal dimension and vertical dimension for future rehabilitation prosthesis, thus enhancing the quality of life. A total of 30 sites were taken for this study. After obtaining institutional ethical committee approval Atraumatic extraction was performed with periotome and subsequent placement of concentrated growth factor was done both clinical and radiological analysis done at baseline and after 6 months post operatively. Following conclusions were drawn from the study, The mean difference in the soft tissue ridge width between preoperative and postoperative analysis were statistically significant. The mean difference in the hard tissue width between preoperative and postoperative analysis were statistically significant. The mean difference in height of the socket between preoperative and postoperative analysis were statically significant. From this present study of evaluating the effectiveness of concentrated growth factor in alveolar ridge preservation after atraumatic extraction, it is clearly evident that the contour changes in alveolar bone was minimum on using CONCENTRATED GROWTH FACTOR which is autologous, non-immunogenic, and cost effective.

Summary and Conclusion. 4.5.1 In this laboratory study, field sampling of marine water and sediment was conducted. The samples were then stabilized, incubated and finally analyzed in laboratory for the odour emission characteristics. Some important findings could be made and summarized below: ■ Noticeable higher H2S and odour concentrations were found in the samples collected in the untreated area than its counterpart subject to bioremediation treatment for almost one year (Scenarios 11-20). This finding suggests that the bioremediation treatment applied in the northern KTAC areas is quite efficient in terms of odour removal after 1 year of establishment. ■ The H2S and odour concentrations with same water depth are generally increased with incubation temperature in the untreated area. The increases are especially substantial when the temperature increases from 25oC to 35oC. These results suggest that the temperature is a critical factor in controlling the H2S and odour emissions. ■ The H2S and odour concentrations showed a consistent “inverse” relationship with water depth. This exception is probably due to the continuous bubbling of gases generated in the sediment which have been observed. These bubbles are likely to transfer substantial quantities of H2S and other odorous compounds through the water column. This phenomenon was also observed in the reactor where odorous chemicals cannot be readily escaped from the water.
Summary and Conclusion. This document describes the measured performance of the 300-GHz ThoR front-end and power amplifier modules, characterized using CW test signals. The results of the front-end characterization in a laboratory environment are discussed in detail – considering the requirements in the context of the overall system implementation – and are summarized in the following: The 300-GHz receiver and transmitter Modules have been successfully packaged into waveguide modules, covering the IF-frequency range of 60 to 90 GHz for 70–75.5-GHz LO frequencies. The corresponding RF frequency band spans from 280 GHz to 310 GHz. Hence, the frontend modules cover the targeted 290–300-GHz frequency band targeted for channel aggregation in the ThoR project. The measured 300-GHz RX covers the 64–94-GHz IF frequency range with 4–7-dB conversion gain, representing a 3-dB bandwidth of at least 30 GHz. The lower IF-frequency band below 64 GHz, however, could not be measured with the W-band measurement setup which was used. The measured 300-GHz TX achieves output power levels above –4 dBm in saturation with an OP1dB 1-dB compression output power of –6 dBm, covering a 3-dB RF bandwidth of 280 to 310 GHz. The measured 300-GHz PA module with 8-dBm output power in the targeted frequency range around 300 GHz. The measured small-signal gain over the 290–330-GHz frequency band is 20 dB, showing very good linearity with OP1dB = 6 dBm. Based on the verified performance of the 300-GHz front end and power amplifier, the planned ThoR live link implementation will proceed in WP6. After the above described single-tone measurement and verification, the front ends are currently being tested in back-to-back configuration in laboratory environment at the University of Stuttgart, using commercially available electronically generated LO signals, before gradual system integration with the other ThoR components in the planned WP6 live link demonstrations.
