Fingerprints Being Computerized
The Police
Department has sixty thousand fingerprints collected over
40 years on file and now they are being entered into a massive computer
database. It's an initiative sponsored by the US Government which has
provided Belize with 6 electronic fingerprint scanning units.
One unit will be assigned to the main police station in each district and it will be used to take finger prints electronically. But the priority right now is on getting those tens of thousands on file and AFIX TECHNOLOGIES - which provides the equipment - has sent 4 employees to Belize to assist the Police Department in getting those into the system with high speed scanners.

TO
THE EDITOR
Dear Editor ... please relay my
sincerest Thank You
to the Town Board and BTB for having this "Beach and
Road Clean Up". You don't know how much I wish I
could join you all in cleaning the beautiful city of San Pedro/Ambergris Caye. I posted an editorial a month or so back about the "trash" that was along the beach as I walked from Banana Beach to downtown San Pedro. To the people of San Pedro .. you just don't know what a beautiful city/country you have ... keep it clean and beautiful as you all are. Charles Padilla NOTICES
Due to the prospect of stormy weather on Saturday the 20th, we are rescheduling the Beach and Road Cleanup for SATURDAY 27 AUGUST.
