Call Takers
Some dispatch centers are staffed with personnel who serve as call takers. Their sole job is the answer the phones, gather the essential information, then pass the information on to the dispatcher who will, in turn, send to appropriate agencies. Sometimes the call information is routed to multiple dispatchers, each dispatching one service provider (e.g., police – fire – EMS).
The call taker model, while efficient, can have some inherent challenges. There is always the possibility of multiple call takers receiving multiple 9-1-1 calls about the same incident. If the call takers know that one of their associates is taking an incoming call about an emergency, they may simply confirm the address with the caller and tell them responders are on the way. The problem with this is the quantity and quality of information gathered by each caller can be very different. The first call taker might be able to gather very little information from a distressed caller. A subsequent caller (to another call taker) might offer much more information of higher quality but that caller was cut off.
Dispatch training and priorities
Some emergency response agencies may operate their own dispatcher center and not share dispatching services with other agencies. Many dispatch centers, however, serve many agencies. Many of those are under the control of police or sheriff departments. Fundamentally, it shouldn’t matter whose control dispatch falls under so long as the quality of service for all agencies served is high. Unfortunately, this is not always the case.
In some jurisdictions the priority for dispatcher training and job performance is slanted in the direction of the agency that controls the dispatch center. To some degree this is understandable. The dispatcher is going to give deference to the agency that signs their paycheck. A problem can arise when a dispatch center becomes unresponsive to the needs of other agencies they dispatch for. Dispatching for fire and dispatching for police, for example, are different.
Incident scene communications support
In a properly staffed, highly functioning communication center a dispatcher would be assigned to handle the radio communications for a critical incident and that would be their sole responsibility. Where this happens – and it does happen for those who have not benefited from this design – the dispatcher serves as a scribe and a second set of ears for the incident commander. This can be a huge asset to a commander. For starters, the dispatcher is in a lower stress environment because they are physically located in a controlled environment that is not dynamically changing (like an emergency scene is).
Dispatchers often wear radio headsets that allow them to filter out extraneous noise so they can concentrate on the radio traffic they are monitoring. A dispatcher can have ready access to resource information like weather and traffic condition reports. If they have access to the Internet they can quickly find answers to questions for the commander.
ETNs and PAR checks
Two support tasks a dispatcher can perform that can be very helpful to emergency responders are Elapsed Time Notifications (ETNs) and Personnel Accountability Reports (PARs). These tasks can be performed by the commander or a command team member as well. Sometimes those additional personnel are not readily available on an emergency scene. This is where the dispatcher can really help out.
An ETN is an announcement, over the radio, for all operational personnel to hear (which means it might have to be announced multiple times on multiple channels so everyone does hear it) of the time that has elapsed at an emergency. This is critical to the formation and maintenance of situational awareness for two reasons. First, responders need to form expectations of outcomes. This is one of the steps in the decision making process. One of those expectations is HOW LONG should it take for personnel to complete tasks. An ETN helps a commander keep track of the passage of time and can benchmark the time passage to the process of assignments.
Second, Level 3 Situational Awareness is formed by making accurate predications of future events (beyond company-level performance of tasks). Think of company-level performance of tasks as scenes in a movie. Think of Level 3 Situational Awareness as figuring out how the entire movie is going to end. In most dynamically changing environments responders have a finite time to complete tasks or the situation may overrun them (e.g., extinguish the fire and get out before the building collapses).
The PAR check is a formal process of accounting for all personnel operating at an emergency scene. The process can be conducted by the dispatcher and the content of the report affirmed by the commander as companies report in, or vice versa. Mayday!
A dispatcher is often in a better environment to hear a distress message and gather critical information from at-risk responders.

Mapp v. Ohio Case: Do you agree with the Court’s decision in the Mapp case? Give reasons for your answer.
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
What the officers did was unconstitutional and violated the 4th amendment. Weeks v. United States established the Exclusionary Rule in 1914. At the time the exclusionary rule was only applied for federal courts instead of all courts. In 1949, Wolf v. Colorado, the High Court ruled that the Exclusionary Rule did not apply to the State but the Fourth Amendment did. In 1961, Mapp v. Ohio, the High Court ruled that the exclusionary rule applies to the state level as well as the federal. Justice Clark said this perfectly, "Thus the State, by admitting evidence unlawfully seized, serves to encourage disobedience to the Federal Constitution which it is bound to uphold....... Nothing can destroy a government more quickly than its failure to observe its own laws, or worse, its disregard of the charter of its own existence."

What are the two kinds of legal systems in America?
O English and Roman
O advocates or fact-finders
adversarial and inquisitorial
civil and criminal
Answer:
adversarial and inquisitorial
Explanation:
A legal system can be defined as the system of principles, regulations and rules established by legislature, that is adopted in a community, society or country to regulate the actions of its citizens, members or employees.
Thus, a legal system is procedural and it's used by the judiciary, lawyers, individuals, organizations, and even government to ensure everybody is well behaved, non-criminal and civil in their actions. Therefore, a law creates the foundation for ethical behavior.
In circumstances where there are aberration, the law is enforced as a punishment and penalty for wrongdoings or misdeeds.
The two kinds of legal systems in the United States of America are;
I. Adversarial: it involves two legal practitioners representing their clients in litigation.
II. Inquisitorial: it involves the services of an inquisitor who is saddled with the responsibility of investigating a matter and giving a judgement to the legal case or issue.
Describe the process an officer takes during a traffic stop and explain why the steps are necessary?
Answer:
For an officer, a traffic stop is a routine, often forgettable task. But it is also one of the most routinely dangerous, as officers usually have little idea if we are stopping Dad on his way to work or someone who just robbed a bank, willing to do whatever it takes to escape.
So we train our officers to be extremely careful, and to use every tactical advantage they can find, no matter how small. Being blinded by spotlights or having to crane your neck around to see an officer may feel unnecessary or even rude, but that is not the officer's intent. They are simply doing their best to stay safe.
The following is a traffic stop story, from an officer's perspective.
You're being Pulled Over
What should you do?
Stay calm. Traffic stops are often emotional, but safety is always the goal. Arguing, yelling, or swearing will escalate the situation and may be threatening to the officer.
Indicate that you've seen the officer by putting on your turn signal, then pull over to a safe place, where you will not be blocking traffic.
Shut off the engine and turn off the radio.
Keep your hands on the steering wheel and/or out of your pockets.
When asked for registration and driver's license, inform the officer where in the car you need to find it.
You might explain to the officer if there are any extenuating circumstances and/or take responsibility for your behavior.
Remember you always have the right to discuss the incident with a judge if you disagree or believe the officer made a mistake.

The volume of the frustum of the cone is V = 44π units³
What is a Cone?A cone is a three-dimensional shape in geometry that narrows smoothly from a flat base (usually circular base) to a point(which forms an axis to the center of base) called the apex or vertex.
The volume of a cone is given by the equation
Volume of Cone = ( 1/3 ) πr²h
where r is the radius of the cone
h is the height of the cone
Surface area of the cone = πr ( l + r )
where l = √ ( b² + r² )
Given data ,
Let the volume of the smaller cone be V₁
Let the volume of the entire cone be V₂
And , the volume of frustum is V = V₂ - V₁
Let the radius of the smaller cone be r
Now , the value of r = 2 units
The height of the smaller cone h = 3 units
So , the volume V₁ = ( 1/3 ) πr²h
V₁ = ( 1/3 )π ( 2 )² ( 3 )
V₁ = 4 units³
And , volume of the entire cone be V₂ = ( 1/3 )π ( 4 )² ( 9 )
V₂ = 48π units³
So , the volume of frustum is V = 48π units³ - 4 units³
V = 44π units³
Hence , the volume of the frustum is 44π units³
