LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER Dear Reader, Just a reminder that this end of the year newsletter combines the month of December and January, so look for your next issue (The February 2004 issue) at the end of January 2004, but remember to check for updates at www.theblueline.com in the meantime. This year has seen our publication and website continue to get bigger and better as we strive to deliver the most comprehensive public safety career information. The best move this year has been the addition of Tom Caronti to our team. Tom has been instrumental in many of the changes you have seen at www.theblueline.com in recent months and among other things is responsible for the increasing number or Featured Departments you have seen in these pages and on-line. Need to finish your degree? You will notice that our back page features an on-line degree program from Kaplan College. They have been around a long time and have been an innovator in on-line criminal justice programs. If you need to complete your degree see the back page for more information. Unique Christmas gift idea. Some have called it showboating, some call it strong leadership. Whatever you think about President Bush's landing on the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln to declare the end of major combat operations in Iraq it was certainly without precedent. When I saw the action figure of President Bush in a flight suit commemorating the event I knew I found the perfect gift-for the staunchest supporter to the most liberal critic on my Christmas list. I think you will be amused too...see page 23 for details. If you are interested in information on the action figure or the programs through Kaplan College and are reading this in print form you can visit www.theblueline.com for links. Have a Safe and Happy Holiday from all of us at The Blue Line, 2.
