All Law Enforcement Positions Require Employee Criminal Background Check Reports
More On This Topic: Simple Loan Agreement Positions in law enforcement require an employee criminal background check. Even if you are only applying for a position answering phones, an employee criminal background check will be required. People that work in law enforcement have tremendous authority, so they must be worthy of the public trust. A police officer can detain a citizen on suspicion of a crime. While it is true that without evidence, the suspect will be released, detention can be embarrassing and have long term negative consequences for the person publicly detained.

Canada’s supercomputer goes online
Friday, June 19, 2009 The University of Toronto SciNet Consortium went online yesterday with the IBM System x iDataPlex Supercomputer. U of T’s IBM System x is now the fastest computer outside of the United States, the largest Intel processor based IBM installation internationally and the twelfth most powerful globally. It will be used for a wide variety of operations, such as analysing climate change models, aerospace, astrophysics, genetics, bioinformatics, chemical physics, medical imaging research and other highly calculation-intensive tasks. The C$50 million dollar supercomputer can perform 300 trillion calculations per second and uses the equivalent amount of energy which would power 4,000 homes. The supercomputer will be cooled by outdoor winter air assisted by a water based cooling system during warmer summer months. The computer will provide computations for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) that started preliminary experiments on September 10, 2008 at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. The LHC…

According to CNN, David Onstott, 36, was charged late Saturday night with first-degree murder Gee said. “He is the…
