  1. There are currently a number of anomalies in testing data. Our testing data provider, The COVID Tracking Project, is in the process of changing how it maps states’ data to the categories we use for our positivity calculations. Additionally, some states have made changes to the data they report. We are currently evaluating how best to adapt to these changes and reviewing our data inputs and calculations to ensure that we can present the most responsible and accurate view of state test positivity data. Placer County Note: Due to rapidly changing conditions, the dashboard will now be updated twice weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Additional daily Placer data is available on the state website. Please get your official government information on the virus at these websites: City of Roseville - COVID-19 Information Placer County - Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 Information California Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response CDC Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information

  10. Emergency notification testing this Thursday On Thursday, August 25, Roseville along with 12 other cities, 3 Counties and 1 Tribal Nation will exercise the Regional Mass Notification System. The primary objective of this exercise is to test the Regional Mass Notification system’s capability, capacity and effectiveness to deliver emergency notifications to the public during times of a major disaster. The test will be inclusive of those that have opted into the local Emergency Alert system (cell, landline and email) and the residential landlines in the 911 data system. The test alert will display on phones as 833-422-5253 – residents can now save this number in their phone as “Emergency Alert” so they recognize critical alerts. The test will also use the Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) System, a federal emergency system that uses geographically drawn boundaries to alert people in specific areas. A WEA alert causes cell phones to vibrate and omit a different tone than a ringing phone - much like an Amber Alert.

  12. Three Random Words for Password Creation By: Rob Baquera, Public Information Officer, Roseville Police Department Professor Mary Reed, of the Rochester Institute of Technology, recently wrote an article connecting the math behind a geographic mapping application, what3words, and creating secure passwords that a human being can actually remember. Technology is integrated into everything we do and most pieces of technology require a password. A strong password will: Help you avoid ID Theft Make it easy remember Better secure your valuable information Here’s the next steps to create a strong a memorable password. The first part of this password creation concept is what3words uses an "ordered triple" set of random words to identify a particular geographical location on the Earth. An 'ordered triple' is just a list of three things in which the order matters. For example, "box.ladder.pup" would be considered a different ordered triple than "ladder.box.pup". The next piece is the pool of words available to use. Some scholars estimate there are more than a million English words, with many being very uncommon. For their mapping application, what3words came up with a list of 40,000 English words. Allowing word repeats, which means there are 40,000 possibilities for the first word, 40,000 for the second, and 40,000 for the third. The number of possible ordered triples would be 40,000 x 40,000 x 40,000, equaling 64 trillion possible ordered triples. Remember, that's for a limited word pool of 40,000 words. Consider the amount of ordered triples for a word pool of 171,476 - the amount of words in common use in the Oxford English Dictionary! If you string together an ordered triple of words (i.e. ladderboxkitten), that becomes a password you should be able to remember much easier than a random string of letters, numbers, and special character designed to meet a set of complexity rules. If your password requires special characters, it would be fairly easy to pop one in (&ladderboxpup); or capitals and special characters (&Ladderboxpup). While the three random words method isn't fail safe for password security, the complexity of language provides amazing power to help one to create and remember a password that works for them and security requirements.

  14. From Scott Alvord, City Council Member... Update on Post Office on the west side. Our postmaster lives on the western half of Roseville so several years ago, I reached out to him to find out what it would take to get a new post office out here. He was very helpful, but he had no power to decide himself without the request coming from a federal office. But he explained what was needed. Because postal service is a federal department, I had to start working with staff from Tom McClintock office, specifically Kim Pruett. She's good to work with. I asked what it would take to help get a PO and some blue drop-off boxes in western Roseville and she did some additional research. She got back to me explaining the details, so I talked to city staff, and they worked with Kim to draft a letter for our mayor to sign, formally requesting the new post office. Mayor Krista Bernasconi was all in to help. She signed it, sent it, and then we all waited. We finally got word back that while our growth probably justified one, it would be very difficult to get one. But we were now on their radar. But they could get us the blue drop-off boxes. The Roseville Postmaster has received permission from the city and property owners to place new mailboxes throughout western Roseville at the below addresses. They are also looking into placing more boxes as new developments throughout the city continue to expand. Links to map locations: 1950 Blue Oaks 2310 Pleasant Grove 1771 Pleasant Grove 4080 Baseline I haven't checked the locations to verify that they were installed but they were or will be soon. Luckily, we have a UPS Store coming to the Plaza at Blue Oaks (by the new Raley's O-N-E).
