Scottish Police Services Authority - Information Communications Technology

This request for creation has been accepted. Please do not modify it.
This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text. The Scottish Police Services Authority - Information Communications Technology (formerly known as the Scottish Police Information Strategy) is an organisation within the Scottish Police Service responsible for the development of new systems with a national, cross-force scope. The personnel consist primarily of around 50 Police Staff, mainly IT professionals specialising in a range of discrete technologies, with a large contingent of those staff comprised of Java J2EE Developers and Oracle DBAs. SPSA-ICT also retains a small number of development staff specialising in .Net technologies. Non-technical members of staff include Project Managers, Administrative Staff, internal Personnel resources, Software Testers, Senior Management, and a very small number of seconded police officers with specialist knowledge of the areas impacted by projects under construction. Seconded police officers are drawn from Scotland's eight police forces, and from SPSA-Criminal Justice (formerly SCRO). Projects Undertaken The Scottish Intelligence Database (SID) The Scottish Intelligence Database was designed by an external supplier, ABM Intelligent Solutions, under the supervision of a team from SPIS, headed by Detective Superintendent Ian McCandlish, seconded from Strathclyde Police. In respect of his involvement with the SID Project, Det Supt McCandlish was a contributor to the Bichard Enquiry (concerning the 2002 murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman by Ian Huntley, in particular the concerns that case raised regarding how a person with Huntley's police record and background could have been approved to work in proximity to children). Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR2) The ANPR2 Project is an ongoing SPSA-ICT project, concerning the provision of automated number plate recognition (ANPR) technologies to the Scottish Police Service. Notable/controversial aspects of the technologies employed in the project include the collection of information via hidden cameras, concealed in cats eyes in the road. The Scottish Criminal Records Office (now Scottish Police Services Authority - Criminal Justice) replacement system, also known as the Criminal History System The CHS Project was undertaken between 2001 and 2007. It was implemented using Java J2EE and Oracle, with Hibernate and Spring. The Project proved problematic for SPIS / SPSA-ICT, eventually culminating in negative news coverage and questions being asked in the Scottish Parliament regarding the cost of the system, the rationale of its design, and the way it had been managed (see Controversy and External Criticism below). The National Custody System The National Custody System was designed for the .Net and Oracle platforms. Initial scoping and design work took place between November 2002 and January 2006, with first rollout of the system to a Scottish Force (Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary) taking place in February 2006. As of January 2007, the system is currently being reviewed for rollout within a second Scottish force, Strathclyde Police. Human Resources System The HRS Project aimed to provide a single, conherent personel system to the Scottish Police Service. Another personnel system, originally developed internally by Tayside Police, known as SCOPE, also remained in use, however. As a combined result of the move from SPIS to SPSA-ICT, and of the elements within Tayside Police responsible for SCOPE also moving to come under the SPSA, as of April 2007, the SPSA is effectively maintaining two, essentially competing, systems. Controversy and External Criticism SPSA, and later SPSA-ICT, came under considerable public criticism for their handling of the delivery of the Criminal History System project. The cost of the system rose from an initial estimate of £1.5m, to an eventual bill of over ten times that amount. In addition to the cost overrun, the system was delivered more than three years later than even a revised estimate of the delivery date, and did not provide any new capabilities that the system it was intended to replace had previously provided. In the most literal sense, the new system was an exact replica of the 1970's-style green-screen, unifont, text-only system that preceded it; the only difference was that this exactly-identical interface was presented to users via a secure web browser, rather than via a mainframe terminal. The rationale given for this decision to re-invent an outdated wheel was that proceeding this way would save on training costs for existing staff. This was widely-perceived as incredibly shortsighted, given that staff retire or leave and are replaced on a rolling basis, and that consequently the training of new staff will therefore always be an issue, regardless of the nature of the system they require to be trained upon. Additionally, as the new system did not take full advantage of the considerable advances in information technology that have come along since the original 1970's design was envisaged, it was felt that a considerable chance to enhance the safetly and efficiency of, for example, the processes that allow persons to be vetted for work with children had been missed. Questions about SPIS / SPSA-ICT's handling of the project were raised in the Scottish news media, by the BBC News, and by an opposition MSP, Stewart Maxwell, in the Scottish Parliament, who called the project "a complete disaster". The net result of the criticism received was that an external software supplier, Real Time Engineering, was brought in to provide Development expertise and Project Management oversight to the project during the period Summer 2005 - Autumn 2007.

Low Lusatian German

This request for creation has been accepted. Please do not modify it.
This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text. Low Lusatian German (in German: Niederlausitzer Mundart (also English: Low Lusatian Dialect)) is a variety of standart German spoken in northern Saxony and southern Brandenburg within the regions of Cottbus and Hoyerswerda. It is well-defined from the Low German dialects around and north of Berlin as well as the saxon dialect group of present day Saxony and the slavic language of the Sorbs. The Low Lusatian German is a small variation of present day standart German spoken within the regions of Lower Lusatia and the northern part of Upper Lusatia. Both regions were strongly influenced by different dialects, especially after World War II. Rrefugees from East Prussia and Silesia settled there after their dispossession from former German areas. After the foundation of the German Democratic Republic and a econimcal development because of a stronger extraction of lignite people from Mecklenburg, Thuringia, Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt moved to the Lusatia region to benefit from the development. Due to this influences of other German dialects Low Lusatian never formed a too strong variaton from standart German. For poeple moving now into this area the dialect is easy to learn and influnces their spoken language quite fast. Language In Low Lusatian German, regional specific words are missing. It contains syncops and apocopes which are used in nearly every German dialect. The only clearly remarkable articulation is the guttural "r". It causes that "-er" always sounds as "-a". Cells left-aligned, table centered English Standart German Lower Lusatian German water Wasser Wassa hammer Hammer Hamma sister Schwester Schwesta(r) In the beginning of a word the "r" is always soft spoken, but furthermore it is nearly not audible within a word. The same effect can be seen on the letter "e" which is also - mostly - vanishing in the endings, the changing of "au" [{{IPA|aʊ|aʊ}}] to "o(h)/oo/u" and the stretching of "ei/ai" to "ee".

Red Letter Days is an "experiences" organisation established in 1989, offering customers the ability to purchase experiences, as opposed to tangible objects, as gifts for others. It essentially sells others' services (e.g. those of a fitness centre) under its own brand, offering a single and consistent purchasing outlet for experiences. In the summer of 2005, Jones teamed up with another Dragons' Den star, Theo Paphitis, to buy the gift experience company Red Letter Days from fellow panellist Rachel Elnaugh. The company, which collapsed under Elnaugh's ownership, has been turned around and is now trading profitably again.
