Explosive detection

Somehow this cubicle had never bothered me after 12 years on the force it was just normal to be in this cubicle for most of the day. The town of Catalina only had a population of 10,000 and not much happened for the undercover unit. We had been called out a few weeks ago to assist the state police at the Athens air show to help with controlling the (1) throng of people that came out. I don’t know how this small air show (2) elicited so many people each year. We recently had a (4) former military…

A possible theme for the book “Columbine” is always pay attention and watch for signs. In the book there is many occasions where Eric and Dylan both showed signs of planning something violent. People knew about the pipe bombs, but no one said anything to the cops. Certain people also knew about them owning guns but again nobody said anything to the cops. The cops also had ways of stopping them and had numerous evidence files that Eric was threatening to kill people but everybody ignored the…

I am playing outside in the yard with my dog Rover. Suddenly, I hear an explosive crackling noise that startled me, I turned around to see our house on fire. It seems as if I was in hell fire everywhere and a dusty cloud of black smoke occurred. I panic I can hear screaming from inside of the house. My neighbors running towards the house as I was sitting on the ground in distraught of what I just witnessed. Sitting there with my knees bent against my chest and my arms wrapped around my legs. I…

Over the years whether it be family, friends, or even strangers I’ve been asked many times the same particular questions. What about war is hard, why are so many soldiers suffering from PTSD, and what is it like? From the first day of basic training, we are taught that our main focus is to go to war and fight for our country. Our mentally changes and we start to develop an obsession with war.…

Sangin, Afghanistan is a graveyard for U.S troops and Allied forces. From 2009 to 2012 no other district in Afghanistan has claimed more lives of coalition forces than the Sangin district. The United States and British troops combined have lost over 162 service members while being deployed to the area. While I was deployed to Sangin in 2010, my battalion lost nine Marines in four days during the first few weeks of the deployment. By the end of our deployment, we sustained more casualties…

Both firewalls and intrusion detection systems are used to monitor network traffic and implement network security policies. Research these technologies and determine how they are similar and how they differ. Are both needed? Explain your answer in a short paper. Firewall From a definition standpoint, a firewall is a hardware or software used in a networked environment to block unauthorized access by individuals while permitting authorized communications to and from the user.

base safe from any type of explosive threat or device, and for decreasing disruptions to the quality of life. I spent time learning the routines and practices of the installation, so that I could review and appraise adequately. Further, when I was able to observe how practice was implemented against policy, I proposed a more comprehensive plan for protecting the base, implementing different standards and best practices taught to me at the United States Naval Explosive Ordnance Disposal School.…

Security Onion intrusion detection system will be selected, installed, and evaluated. A trial deployment of the intrusion detection system will be attempted in a restricted environment, then a simulated attack will be carried out, and the results analysed.

The main functions of Security Onion are capturing packets,…

Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technicians (NEOD), the organization that I am currently a part of and have some influence over, are a small group (1500 personnel) trained in the art of bomb disposal. As a scalable force, we specialize in complex and dangerous tasks ranging from IED to chemical and biological weapon remediation. NEOD personnel can enter a crisis surreptitiously from the air, under the sea and across the land. NEOD has historically been the “force of choice” across virtually…

A murderer is someone who is narcissistic, often mentally ill and selfish. They have no compassion and don’t feel anything most of the time. That’s definitely the case for Larry Bittaker and Roy Norris also known as the “Toolbox Killers” as well as Ian Brady and Myra Hindley also known as the “Moors Murderers.” Lawrence “Larry” Bittaker was born in Pittsburgh, PA and was adopted as a baby. Because of his adopted fathers job, he was forced to move from place to place before they finally settled…
