Describe the current intelligence situation and key considerations in the area of operations.

Intelligence Estimate Write up an Intelligence Estimate/IPOE/IPB for a war game that will be conducted. The scene setter scenario which the intelligence is included below. Scene Setter Scenario ISIS-affiliated, Abu Sayyaf Group rebels have taken and are holding the city of Marawi on the island of Mindanao in the southern Philippines, as well as surrounding villages, with Philippines government troops preparing to conduct an offensive to take back the city. ASG rebels are vowing to ‘fight to the finish’. They are holding hostage the Philippines mayor of the city and other city council members, as well as 3 Christian missionary family and one German NGO worker who were working in the area but who were kidnapped by the ASG before they could be extracted. The missionary families consist of 2 x Australian families of 4 (a total of 8 persons) and 1 x US family of 4. The German worker was released after a ransom was reportedly paid. The ASG is threatening to execute all hostages if, when a counter-offensive against their forces in Marawi begins. The Republic of the Philippines government has formally requested Australian and US government assistance for the offensive by providing intelligence support, as well as Special Operations Force, Counter Terrorism and Tactical Police advisors to the Philippine Army and local Police Force units preparing to take back the city. Policymaker/Decisionmaker Guidance and Intent: Provide guidance regarding the possibility of negotiations in a hostage crisis situation, including current policy and possible courses of action in coordination with partner nations The intelligence estimate will be 1500 words and will need the following included. 1. MISSION. (Minimal word count) • Clearly and succinctly restate policymaker/decisionmaker mission requirements and intent. 2. SITUATION AND CONSIDERATIONS (Equivalent to Policy Paper Executive Summary & Overview sections). • Describe the current intelligence situation and key considerations in the area of operations. • Provide an overview of environmental and adversarial factors, including unique weather, terrain and adversary issues leading to centres of gravity analysis. List Operational and Strategic Centres of Gravity and Most Likely, Most Dangerous Adversary Courses of Action (COAs) but not in detail. • Save more detailed assessment for the ‘Analysis’ section below. 3. ANALYSIS. (Approximately 600 words) • Provided more detailed analysis using Intelligence Preparation of the Operational Environment (IPOE) of the following: Evaluate the Environment: Characteristics of the Area – pertinent Weather, Terrain, Geography, Infrastructure features; show geographic overview of the Area of Operations and then Named Areas of Interest (NAI) as required (for instance, the maritime region around Scarborough Shoals or the sea and coastal areas where ASG maritime kidnapping operations are taking place off Borneo could be designated as NAIs). Use geographic maps as needed to depict Avenues of Approach, Lines of Communication and Sea Lines of Communication (SLOCs) to describe the environment. Weather patterns such as the typhoon or monsoon seasons could be important factors in their impact on both Adversary and Friendly Force operations. ​ Evaluate the Adversary: Adversary Assessment: Intent, Objectives, Government, Leadership Personalities, Weapons, Order of Battle, Tactics, Techniques & Procedures (TTPs). Breakout Adversary force disposition, composition, strength and capabilities. • Centres of Gravity (COG) Analysis: – Adversary Critical Capabilities / Critical Vulnerabilities – Strategic COGs / Operational COGs – Most Likely / Most Dangerous COAs (keep number of options down…if more complex, use branch & sequel planning structure. Analyse each Adversary COA to determine advantages and disadvantages. Evaluate Friendly Forces. Coalition partners, Non-Government Organisations (NGOs) and their capabilities, vulnerabilities and capacities. Determine your Intelligence Requirements process and how that process will drive your Collection, Analysis, Production & Dissemination scheme. Consider intelligence partner nations and what capabilities and capacity they provide and how they can provide them. 4. COMPARISON (Approximately 600 words) Compare what you know against what you don’t know. Identify your key ‘Intelligence Gaps’ and consider how they can best be addressed. Also determine and build initial Priority Intelligence Requirements (PIRs) list, based on policy maker/decision maker guidance, other analyst requirements and your Intelligence Gaps.

Compare/contrast two definitions of homeland security

Compare/contrast two definitions of homeland security:  the first was published in the National Strategy for Homeland Security in July 2002 by the office of homeland security and the second was first published in Quadrennial Homeland Security Review Report:  A Strategic Framework for a Secure Homeland by the US Dept. of Homeland Security in February 2010. By comparing/contrasting provide examples of incidents during the past 2 decades that may have influenced the definitions at that point in time and changes.  Definition 1:  Homeland security is a concerted national effort to prevent terrorist attacks within the US, reduce America’s vulnerability to terrorism, and minimize the damage and recover form attacks that do occur. Definition 2:  Homeland security is a concerted national effort to ensure a homeland that is safe, secure, and resilient against terrorism and other hazards where American interests, aspirations, and way of life can thrive.  

Discuss at least three practical strategies for implementation.

Who Brought All These Cookies? Managing How Others Sabotage our Health,  please? This is a powerpoint and attached are the details:  Much has been written about keeping our patients safe, but what about keeping ourselves safe? Should healthcare providers have a safe place to work? Should healthcare providers take lunch breaks each shift, where they truly can take a short walk and rid themselves of stress? Should healthcare providers have adequate staffing and equipment to provide safe quality care to their patients, and themselves?  To address these and other issues, the American Nursing Association (ANA) has adopted the Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation™ program (although this program is certainly applicable to all healthcare providers). Students can learn more by clicking here (Links to an external site.). NOTE: This assignment is NOT specific to the nursing profession. Instead, it is appropriate for all disciplines represented within this course. The source listed here is simply one example of programs.  For this assignment, students are to create a PowerPoint presentation on a topic of keeping providers healthy. The topic was selected during Week One of this course.    Introduction  Clearly identify the topic Specify why this topic is important for the healthcare providers Significance of the Topic Include the healthcare provider’s responsibility for role modeling this behavior (to other providers and/or their patients) Include how this topic impacts the lifespan of the working healthcare provider. Strategies for implementation Discuss at least three practical strategies for implementation. 

Explain it and discuss how it fits each of the four pairs of lovers (so far) in relation to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”.

1. From Hippolyta’s speeches make a list of what the reader finds out about her. For example, form her first speech, we find out she is not as anxious for time to pass as Theseus is. Write a character analysis of Hippolyta using that list. Your response will thus contain (i) a bulleted list of character observations about Hippolyta, including textual references (MLA style), and (ii) at least two pages-long analysis of Hippolyta as a character. You many focus on questions such as: What is her function in the play? How does this character develop the theme(s) in the play? 2. Make a list of Puck’s activities. Write a character analysis of Puck using that list. Your response will thus contain (i) a bulleted list of activity observations about Puck, including textual references (MLA style), and (ii) at least two pages-long analysis of Puck as a character. What is his (or her?) function in the play? How does this character develop the theme(s) in the play? 3. Read closely Lysander’s statement: “The course of true love never did run smooth” (I.1. 134) Explain it and discuss how it fits each of the four pairs of lovers (so far). 4. Helena says, “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind. And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.” (I.1.234- 235) How does this statement apply to the four pairs of lovers? Back up your argument with a reference to at two other quotes or parts of the play. 5. How does Bottom’s line, “reason and love keep little company together nowadays” (III.1. 144-145) fits his relationship with Titania? How might it apply to the other lovers? Back up your argument with a reference to at two other quotes or parts of the play. 6. In Act II, Helena laments: “We cannot fight for love, as men may do; We should be wooed and were not made to woo” (II. 1. 238-242). Even though these lines were written in the 16th century, are they still true today? Why? Why not? Back up your argument with a reference to at two other quotes or parts of the play as you discuss any differences that you discern between men and women. 7. Creative Prompt. Write your own imagined short story about, or dialogue between, one of the play’s couples “20 years later”, or set in contemporary times. Include a paragraph-long author’s statement, in which you explain your choices: what is the setting of this contemporary adaption, who are the characters, and why?
