Asymmetric information

Insurgency, as defined by author Seth Jones, is “a political military campaign by non-state actors who seek to overthrow a government or secede from a country through the use of unconventional—and sometimes conventional—military strategies.” There are two distinct instances of insurgency in the Middle East that aptly convey this definition: Iraq and Afghanistan. Comparatively these to cases are quite similar in motivation and success. It is the act of counter-insurgency by outside forces that…

In the days of asymmetrical warfare: chemical weapons are a mainstay. Chemical warfare has introduced a powerful weapon called blood agents; considered one of the most deadly. No one organization is a primary source of blood agents, but they are a threat of the destruction of organs within a living organism; the human body. The reduced cost of warfare by these agents increases the bang for the buck with less quantity storage or hiding in plain sight made accessible. Past events such as the Tokyo…

rapid technological advances that will occur in the future. By implementing technology into business environments, it allows organizations to create simpler and more efficient ways to complete tasks and become more effective in all areas including information management and human resources. Although staying current in technology can be beneficial, it also brings its own set of security and ethical issues as well as developing efficient technology training and strategy components. Technology is…

The film opens with a young man riding a motorcycle through the woods carrying a box of food items for a hermit woman living far and isolated from the nearest community. As he reaches the cabin to drop off the food and pick up his money in return, he becomes curious of the cabin and looks inside. He finds the old woman dead upon the floor of the cabin, with her arms folded on her chest and flowers covering her eyes. The young Billy Fisher quickly flees the cabin and back to town. When the local…

What are the Australian Privacy Principles The Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) are contained in schedule 1 of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act). The APPs outline how “APP entities” must handle, use and manage personal information. Legal practitioners need to be aware that the APPs are not prescriptive. Each APP entity has to consider and determine how the principles apply to its own situation. The Guidance Note lists the APPs, and provide legal practitioners with examples of how an…

A). Perceiving objects in everyday aspects such as a living room with toys all over the floor, or a plate on the dining room table requires you to determine where the object begins and where it ends as you are measuring how much depth the item has (Gross, 167). You recognize the edges of each object as well as the belonging of each individual item to the tied environment. As infants grow up, they develop these abilities to be able to develop shadows to where the items edges are tied to the…

This was the first post I wrote for the event, I wrote it several months ago well before we began to have any victories, most noteworthy, the Black Series poll and the TOR expansion. It doesn't pull it punches and is somewhat harse, but quite accurate. This was written at a time I wasn't sure if we could win and I was gearing up for a lifelong struggle. I now know we can and will win this fight. We will restore the #TrEU. This was written with raw emotion and abandon. The final post will be a…

Air control and traffic control systems The air travel connects every part of the world. Air transport is very risky in the case of information issues. The aircrafts are controlled through systems of coordinated information systems. Any loss or misinterpretation of the information from the ground results into tragic accidents, loss of lives and resources. Such cases have been evident in many parts of the country where the crafts get lost from the system and crashes on the ground. The riskiest…

Internal communication that we used in my unit was Share drive, Staff meetings, Operation orders, and memorandum that we pass information to our subordinates. While we used Telephonic, Video conference, and Social media i.e. Facebook, Twitter or Instant messaging for external…

Communication is something we do every day. Writing a text message to your Mom is very different from responding to an email from your boss. Both require a different tone and a different level of formality or informality. Identifying when it is appropriate to use a certain tone of communication is vital when trying to get your point across effectively. When I am in my family and friends discourse group the setting is very informal and casual. It is not uncommon for one of us to end a text…
