Each state's listings begin with the name of the state in caps (i.e. ILLINOIS). You can also go directly to any feature listed in the "TABLE OF CONTENTS" using the "find" command. This is the fastest way to locate specific information. If you are going to browse the entire newsletter, use the "page up" and "page down" keys to navigate, rather than scrolling with the mouse.

SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION ___________________________________________________________ THE BLUE LINE: Police Opportunity Monitor Newsletter: No. 101: May 2002 ___________________________________________________________ 1. LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER Dear Reader, The Blue Line is on the air! Blue Line updates are now a regular part of the radio program “Chicago PM” which can be heard from 6pm to 7pm on WLS-AM in Chicago. The updates are read live each weekday after 6:30 by host Jay Marvin. If you are not familiar with the show you should give it a listen. Jay is a good friend of the police and law enforcement issues are often the topic of discussion. Just this week Jay was discussing “Media Day” at the Chicago Police Academy where he and other members of the media were invited to participate in some simunition scenario training exercises. They also covered the changes in Chicago PD's “use of force” policy and the department issuing of “tasers” for the first time. The 50,000 watt station is one of the most powerful in the Midwest and reaches into the states surrounding the Chicago area, so tune in and see what you think from 6pm to 7pm Central Time. If you can't get the radio signal where you are it can also be heard live on the internet at www.wlsam.com. A slightly new look this month There has been a slight change to the font used in the directory of job opportunities this month. I chose an easily readable yet slightly smaller typeset to allow more content without increasing the number of pages in the newsletter. It may be a little harder to read, but at 232 listings this issue has more listings than ever before. Remember that all the listings can be found at The Blue Line 24/Seven at www.theblueline.com where you can view them in any size print you choose. As always, our goal is to efficiently deliver as much law enforcement career information to you as possible. Thank you and stay safe, Kevin Woodside 2.
