From the Sheriffs office
Here is some information we need to know, ya'll be safe..... Dave
Just in from the OCSO Crime Prevention Unit
Subject: WARNING: 2010 Census Cautions from the BBB
Neighbors Helping Neighbors
This information is being distributed by the Dallas / Ft. Worth
IBMer Organization to warn it's thousands of members of fraud associated
with the 2010 Census (some pre-census activity is already underway).
However, this warning is for ALL citizens so you may want to pass it on
to everyone you know.
2010 Census Cautions
by Susan Johnson - August 3, 2009 12:07 pm
Be Cautious About Giving Info to Census Workers
With the U.S. Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. The first phase of the 2010 U.S. Census is under way as workers have begun verifying the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S. Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and other relevant data. The big
question is - how do you tell the difference between a U.S. Census
worker and a con artist? BBB offers the following advice:
** If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions. However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home.
** Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information. Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S. Census. While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, it will not ask for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers nor will employees solicit donations.
Eventually, Census workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However, they will not contact you by Email, so be on the lookout for Email scams impersonating the Census. Never click on a link or open any attachments in an Email that are supposedly from the U.S. Census Bureau.

CAR SEATS
Car seats, is your correct, here is some information that may help.... Dave
Precious cargo: Choosing and using car safety seats
For safety, children should be properly secured in cars every time they ride. Child safety seats reduce the risk of death in passenger cars by 71 percent for infants and by 54 percent for children ages 1 to 4 years, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Kids younger than age 13 years should ride in the back seat, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). But, how they ride depends on their age and size. Also, be familiar with the laws in your state.
There are four stages of car seat safety:
1. Rear-facing seats are for infants. Keep babies in rear-facing car seats for as long as possible — at least until your child is age 1 year and weighs 20 pounds. Never put these seats in the front seats of vehicles, especially those that have active passenger-side air bags. If the bag inflates, it could cause serious injury or death. The safest place for all infants and children is the back seat.
2. Forward-facing seats come next. They should be placed in the back seat away from airbags. These seats are for toddlers and preschoolers who are at least age 1 year or older and weigh 20 pounds or more. They can ride in this seat until they reach the upper height or weight limit of the seat, usually around 40 pounds or age 4 years. Your child has outgrown it if his or her shoulders are above the top harness slots or ears have reached the top of the seat.
3. Booster seats are for kids who’ve outgrown their forward-facing car safety seats. They help seat belts fit properly across the lap and shoulder. Use one until a seat belt fits properly without the use of a booster seat, usually around age 8 years or 4 feet 9 inches tall.
4. Seat belts are for children who’ve outgrown booster seats, usually age 8 years or taller than 4 feet 9 inches. The lap belt should fit across the upper thighs and a shoulder belt should run across the chest — not the neck or throat. Be a good role model. Always wear your seat belt, too.
Check your technique
Have your car seat checked to be sure you’ve installed it correctly. Visit the NHTSA Web site at www.nhtsa.gov. Click on “Locate a Child Seat Fitting Station” under “Quick Clicks.” Enter your zip code to find a local technician who will check your safety seat. Your local fire station may install and inspect car seats, too.

oh boy, this is good
From the files of law inforcement.... Dave
Pay stub used as bank robbery note
Here we go again... another stupid criminal. The robber's threatening note made a Chicago bank job easy to solve: The FBI says the suspect wrote it on his pay stub. An FBI affidavit said the man walked into a Fifth Third Bank on Friday and handed a teller a note that read "Be Quick Be Quit (sic). Give your cash or I'll shoot."
The robber got about $400 but left half of his note. Investigators found the other half outside the bank's front doors. Authorities say that part of the man's October pay stub had his name and address.
The suspect was arrested at his Cary home. A judge ordered him held without bond Monday. If convicted of bank robbery, he faces 20 years in prison.
