Conduct a Threat Assessment on Public Transportation
Dropbox Assignment Assignment 1: LASA 2: Conduct a Threat
Assessment on Public Transportation
Public transportation systems serve a large number of people in extensive networks, which means they are especially vulnerable to terrorist attacks. Systems in London, Madrid, and Paris have experienced bombing attacks. Tokyo's public transportation system was the site of a chemical attack recently.
Transportation systems are attractive targets for terrorists, wanting to cause the maximum amount of disruption and harm. Preparation of public transportation systems' against such terrorist attacks involves assessments of the systems' vulnerabilities, mitigation of their weaknesses, and development of effective response and emergency plans.
Many people assume that terrorists are only interested in targeting transportation systems in larger cities; however that is not always the case. The city of Centervale is just as likely to be attacked as New York City, so it must be prepared. City leaders of Centervale are concerned with the security of their public transit system, as their preparation plans are out-of-date.
The six modes of their system—aviation, maritime, mass transit, highway, freight rail, and pipeline—all contribute to transporting people, food, water, medicines, fuel, and other commodities. The combined efforts of the modes play an important role in maintaining public health, safety, and economic well-being of the city.
The city leaders have tasked you with reviewing, assessing, and drafting a proposal for all systems; this means determining the level of security currently in place for each system and proposing changes or updates that are needed.
This will require you as the security analyst to work with other government agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, and others, tasked with the mission to enhance the security of the United States in general.
Tasks:
Using APA format and citation guidelines, write an 8- to 10-page document that identifies any vulnerabilities, risk areas, and recommendations for change. In this report:
Develop 3–4 goals of the security plan. Create and identify the vulnerabilities for each of the mentioned modes. (Because Centervale is a fictional city, you have some latitude here to identify realistic vulnerabilities based on the scenarios and other information about Centervale throughout the course and the knowledge you have gained in this class.) Assess risks of the current system and describe the consequences of those risks, if left unaddressed. Analyze and prioritize, then explain the order in which each mode should be addressed. Analyze and prioritize, then explain the order in which critical areas of each mode should be addressed. Research successful protective programs, and then recommend a protective program that will address the concerns of city leaders. Evaluate the best measurement tools to assess the effectiveness of any recommended changes. Research and explain the involvement of multiple government agencies needed in this particular development of the plan. Explain how their involvement enhances the security of the United States. Research and explain how advances in technology will improve the security of public transportation systems.

Managing Contention for Shared Resources on Multicore Processors
Managing Contention for Shared Resources on
Multicore Processors
Computer systems with multicore processors can increase performance by running applications in parallel, thus increasing the throughput that the computer system is able to attain. However, contention for caches, memory controllers, and interconnections may hinder performance and create deadlocks for resources. Read the paper “ Managing Contention for Shared Resources on Multicore Processors”, located in Week 8 of the online course shell. This case study proposes using contention-aware scheduling algorithms to alleviate the contention problems.

Week Three Discussion…This is the actual assignment I completed
and will need to be read in order to gain knowledge of assignment
below. READ….I chose the following websites: American Dance Therapy
Association, American Psychiatric Association, and International
Association of Counselors and Therapists. These websites cover
topics within the field of psychology, nevertheless, each website
focuses on different themes, for which they can be compared for
similarities and differences. The American Psychiatric Association
(APA) website represents world’s largest psychiatric organization.
Giving that the APA objectives is to promote scientific development
in our understanding of mental pathology, psycho-education and
quality treatment, the theme of the website is broad-covering
topics of research in mental health and psychotherapy. The
International Association of Counselors and Therapists (IACT)
website covers topics of psychotherapy, advocating a holistic
approach for the treatment of psychopathologies. This website
serves especially for clinicians who which to exchanges ideas,
information, techniques or methodologies, as it contains a forum.
American Dance Therapy Association (ADTA) website belongs to the
American Dance Therapy Association, an organization which promotes
dance therapy. This association claims within the website that
certain dance movements can be helpful for the treatment of many
psychological disorders, as these movements are supposed to provide
a biopsychosocial integration of the individual. It can be noticed
that all websites share a common theme: psychotherapy.
Nevertheless, the APA website covers a much broader area of topics
than the other two websites-its theme been general, as it contains
material of scientific research in psychopathology and
psychoeducation (materials that provide knowledge of
psychopathologies and treatments). On the other hand, the ACT
website has as its main theme psychotherapy, specifically a
holistic approach in psychotherapy, having a less broad area of
topics than the APA website, but less specific than the ADTA
website. The ADTA website has its main theme as a specific type of
psychotherapy-dance therapy, and covers topics that belong or are
related to its main theme. For the purpose of this discussion,
let’s assume a professional from each organization should answer to
the question ‘’ How would a professional in your organization
contribute to the treatment of depression?’’. I believe that a
professional from APA would argue that each professional at APA
contributes with scientific data or clinical judgments to the broad
range of topics that are covered by the website, suggesting that
the scientific articles provided at the APA website serve as
powerful information to be communicated between researchers and
clinicians as well, hence enhancing the probability of developing
better treatments for depression. A professional from IACT will
likely consider that his/her organization allows clinicians to
communicate with each other, therefore all members of the
organization can provide new information or ideas, constructing a
more effective holistic approach in the treatment of depression. A
professional from ADTA will probably believe that dance therapy is
an effective psychotherapy for depression, for which clinicians
that belong to ADTA could practice dance therapy with depressed
individuals, or could teach other clinicians to do so. References

You are supplied with solid hydrated nickel chloride which has the formula NiCl2 6H2O.
30 Plants were first grown for 2 weeks, each in its own
universal tube which contained 25 ml of nutrient solution. After 2
weeks each of the 30 individuals was replaced in a new tube
containing 25 ml of nutrient solution to which NiCl2 had been added
at the concentrations of 0, 0.5, 5, 20, or 80 uM. Six plants were
grown at each nickel concentration. The plants had to be split
between three racks, each of which was only capable of holding 10
plants in a 5 x 2 grid (see below).
(Atomic weight of Ni = 58.7. Atomic weight of Cl = 35.5. Atomic weight of O = 16, Atomic weight of H = 1)

Character Analysis Paper
Now that you have observed the attributes of the characters in the short stories “A&P” and “Greasy Lake,” write a character-analysis essay in which you analyze one major or minor character from any short story in Chapter 21: “Fiction for further reading.” Use specific language from chapters 14 and 17 when crafting your analysis. What “type” of character are you analyzing? How are language and the style/tone of the story used to formulate the character? Is the story reflective of the character, or the character of the story? How would a reader from another country or culture potential draw different conclusions about the characters in these stories? Your response should be 750-1000 words.
For a successful paper:
•Have a strong thesis statement at the end of your introduction paragraph.
•Use a “hook” in the introduction paragraph to grab your readers’ attentions.
•Use specific textual support from the short story in the body of your paper.
•Finish with a strong conclusion that summarizes your main points, restates the thesis in some way, and possibly returns to the initial “hook.”
•Proofread for errors in spelling, grammar and writing mechanics. Vary sentence structure and sentence length to add interest.
•Follow CSU-GC Graduate APA guidelines with regard to font style, size, margins and spacing.
