On Thursday 03/29/2018 at approximately 2205 I was instructed by Lt. E. Gonzalez #122 to assist Officer E. Hernandez #216 at Marina Hall (located at 6515 Ocean Drive Corpus Christi which is on Texas A&M University-Corpus Christ) with talking with the neighborhoods. Upon arrival I activated body camera #5 and made contact with an individual by the name of Austin Lucero (student/resident) who lives next door in apartment #2121. I advised Lucero about the incident that occurred next door. I asked Lucero if he has been in his apartment all day, which Lucero advised that he arrived to his apartment a little before 1920 and was at the lobby area of the building until 1930 when he headed to the food truck and did not come back until approximately 2120 to the apartment.…
NuStar Energy prides itself on being an employee driven company that relies on its employees for the success of the business. With relying on employees so heavily, NuStar must utilize strategies and tools in order to motivate its employees to want to succeed. Theory Y is a theory about human motivation and management that entails management viewing employees as internally motivated and want to do their job in return for a direct reward. Theory Y also entails that the company/management relies heavily on the employees which turns the employee into a much appreciated and compensated asset. The manager/employee relationships are also based on personal connection rather than a teaching basis.…
Houston Community College’s police force is changing how they operate. By the end of this semester, officers will be rotating from campus to campus and working in overlapping shifts. Today, the HCC police force is broken up into five commands: Central, Northeast, Northwest, Southwest, and Coleman and Southeast under the same command. Officers are assigned to a single commands such as the group that covers the Southeast campus off I-45, Fraga and Coleman. “They operate inside whatever that geography is,” noted HCC Police Chief Greg Cunningham, “very rarely do we take you out of Southeast and move you to Southwest...migrating people across these colleges is not real easy to do.”…
Fusion Centers are information centers that facilitate intelligence sharing between local, state, tribal, territorial, and federal agencies. They are locations that contain equipment and staff who analyze and share intelligence. Fusion centers are usually staffed by local law enforcement and other local government employees as well as Department of Homeland Security personnel. Staffing agreements vary from place to place. Fusion centers enable synchronous information sharing between state, local, tribal, and territorial agencies and the federal intelligence community.…
It began with having a lot going on that has involved weapons made out of nuclear fission and probably makes you think if you think if nuclear fission has harmed society. There many examples what good it’s done for us and many harm that it caused. It has allowed us to use it for greater things but also taken advantage of by using it for weapons of destruction. They’ve already used one on people already and killed many. That is not the way using nuclear fission, they use it for threats, power, and their own purposes.…
The Industry There is a way to counterbalance this problem that involves reducing some restrictions on the industry. In today’s society, more industries are starting to be created, which leads to the creation of more jobs. Some industries that are always prosperous include the amusement industry, recreation industry, oil and gas extraction industry, solar industry, automotive industry. These industries are responsible for the creation of over hundreds of thousands of jobs in the US and also increased the economy. However, not all industries are lucrative, some even have a shrinkage in profit and job creation.…
Nuclear energy is the energy released during nuclear fission or fusion. Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits spontaneously or on impact with another particle, with the release of energy. Nuclear fusion on the contrary is the exact opposite; it gathers energy from the heavy nucleus combining with the shot particle. These two combined produce a lot of energy that is used all over the world on a daily basis. Nuclear power has proved to serve a huge part of our society today.…
To ensure our safety under the national security, we had to have partnership trust within our state, federal and local agencies. This made sharing information effective, that’s why we focus on the post 9-11 threat environment. To support preparedness efforts, there’re many of governmental, commercial, and non-governmental organizations that provide officials with homeland security alerts and updates along with state level government have fusion centers that integrate and analyze homeland security information. “The 9/11 terrorist attacks focused public attention on the need for better information sharing among intelligence, law enforcement, and emergency management agencies” (example 2016). The 9/11 Commission was a direct result in the agencies providing incentives for sharing, to restore a better balance between shared task, knowledge and security.…
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a particle accelerator made of superconducting magnets, built on September 10th, 2008. It can be found between the border of France and Switzerland, near Geneva, 100 meters underground. The Large Hadron Collider is a machine that was built with the ability to accelerate subatomic particles to very high speeds, which requires chilling the magnets to ‑271.3°C. This is done through the use of electric or electromagnetic fields, two hadrons are sent through the ring of the LHC in opposite directions, traveling close to the speed of light, and are urged to collide. While the LHC could very well explain questions many scientists have been asking for decades, it’s a debated topic, the risks and cost of the machine are often debated among citizens and scientists alike, but the expansion of knowledge we can receive from it are extensive.…
1. Fusion center are centers—consisting of multiple law enforcement agencies—that are designed to bring agencies together by combining efforts to collect, share and analyze information in order to create intelligence law enforcement can act on. 2. Legalistic policing is the style of policing in which officers are by the book, meaning that the police departments that embrace this style of policing will for example give a ticket to someone going 36mph in a 35mph zone. Service policing is the style of policing in which officers prefer to help members of the community rather than strict enforcement.…
When researching one particular solution to a problem, it is difficult to be entirely objective in relation to the other possible solutions. In particular, this is an ethical problem when applying for funding to make a living. In the context of fusion research, the historical perspective leads to an additional complication: it is difficult to give up after investing half a century trying to solve a problem. In order to not fall for, or at least be aware of these incentives to communicate dishonestly, it is important to reflect upon your role as a researcher.…
Intelligence in Homeland Security Introduction After the attack of 9/11 on the United States the Nation learned there were many areas that needed improvement in regards to the security of the homeland. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had to take into account the lessons learned from 9/11, especially the shortfalls that were seen in intelligence gathering and make some major changes. The DHS is not the only agency that is responsible for gathering information for the Nation’s safety, there are many different national agencies that provide intelligence for homeland security. Some of the National agencies include offices that many have heard of like Customs and Border Patrol, the U.S. Coast Guard or the Secret Service, but there are other National agencies that contribute that most Americans may not know about.…
People have different thoughts on if the U.S should retain or dismantle their nuclear arsenal. People that think it should be kept make arguments like how nuclear weapons help keep the U.S safe and how they can be used if there were to be any sort of war. On the contrary People that feel our nuclear weapons should be dismantled say our nuclear weapons cost too much to be kept and they make us seem hostile to other nations. So should the U.S keep its nuclear arsenal? Well there are lots of pros and cons to both sides of this argument.…
INVESTIGATION: On 03-11-2017- at approximately 0015 hours, I was notified by Det. Carter #181968, of a traffic crash with serious injuries that occurred on Fletcher Avenue, east of the intersection of19th Street. I responded to the crash scene and upon arrival at approximately 0117 hours, I was assigned to forensically map the scene and I also took digital photographs of the scene. Upon my arrival, approaching the scene from the east on Fletcher Avenue and west of 20th Street, I saw HCSO deputies had the westbound lanes of Fletcher Avenue closed to traffic between 20th Street and 19th Street, with a smaller area cordoned off with yellow crime scene tape.…
The use of nuclear power has been under debate for many years; with issues such as environmental impact, safety, cost, waste management, and efficiency, the cons clearly outweigh the pros. Nuclear power plants have been supplying electricity to the population for nearly 60 years, but all things must come to an end as better options emerge and humanity develops as a species. It 's only natural for things to become outdated, or be replaced by better options as they become available. Nuclear power is a source of energy, created through a reaction when a uranium atom is split, releasing heat that is used to produce electricity. It was initially used as an alternative to coal, as coal-burning facilities were becoming a hazard to the environment.…
