There are not enough resources to provide a maximum level of security of all transportation assets. Therefore, some level of prioritization of support is necessary. Assume that you are a senior member of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) providing guidance to the Transportation Security Agency (TSA). Given the need to secure critical infrastructure, how would you assess the prioritization of funding to support such transportation related assets? Provide your analysis in a position paper for senior leadership in the TSA. Address the following issues as a minimum:

-Determine factors affecting prioritization.
-Identify modes of transportation that may be affected.
-Examine people versus cargo considerations.
-Provide a prioritization by transportation mode for security with a request for feedback.

Do you think that Marx and Engels are correct in asserting importance to the labor process regarding the development of both humanity and society? In answering, discuss: the relationship between consciousness and our socio-political life, alienation, and the generation of new needs.

Choose an emotion or human personality trait to personify.

Assign a gender to the emotion (male/female); think about the kind of person that emotion would be.

What kind of jobs or hobbies might it have, what would it look like, what kinds of foods would it like? Where would this person be if it was hanging out with friends? Who would be this persons friends be? Use other emotions to be friends. For instance, Depression’s best friend was Anger.

Write ONE paragraph, and be sure to capitalize the first letter of the qualities that you are personifying. You are using them as proper names. When you describe the quality, be sure not to use the quality itself to describe it.

Example: Anger was angry.

Sample Paragraph:
Deceit came across as a handsome, upstanding guy the first time I met him. He was tall, dark, and handsome—a real storybook kind of man. His hair was black, and as slick as he was. Those dark, penetrating eyes sparked with intensity when he turned his gaze towards you. His clothes were as sharp as a razor, and you would never catch him looking less than perfect. He worked at the used car lot across the street from the mall. He sold a lot of cars, but people soon found out that Deceit would embellish the truth to make a buck on a used car, and they never returned for a second car from him. His best friend, Arrogance, was with him more often than not. Arrogance was just the companion he needed to help him swindle his way through life. I got involved with Deceit and Arrogance for a while, but I soon found out that neither of them was to be trusted. Honesty being my first name and all, I shouldn’t have expected things to work out between me and Deceit. All it took was for me to finally see Deceit and Arrogance together! Boy did that open my eyes! I sent them both running for their lives with the ringing of Truth in their ears. I never saw them again, thank goodness. Now I spend my time with Truth and Humble, and I enjoy their company immensely

Entrepreneurship is the process of starting new businesses, generally in response to opportunities. For instance, Fred Carl, founder of the Viking Range Corporation, saw an opportunity to create an appliance that combined the best features of commercial and residential ranges. Many people think entrepreneurial ventures and small businesses are the same, but they are not. Entrepreneurs create entrepreneurial ventures-organizations that pursue opportunities, are characterized by innovative practices, and have growth and profitability as their main goals. Examining entrepreneurship from the perspective of the four managerial functions: planning, organizing, leading and controlling:

What are the challenges faced by entrepreneurs? What are some solutions to these challenges/issues? (2-4 pages)

write the paper with some personal experience and personal ideas
I choose the Confucian culture to write the paper
You may need to find some resources to use in the essay

(1) Post at least one substantive response, of at least 100 words, to each of the study questions in the threads listed here. A substantive response is a knowledgeable, thoughtful, creative contribution to the understanding of narrative theory and textual interpretation. It should demonstrate good reading comprehension of the assigned critical theory and work of fiction. It should also engage in dialog with previous comments. Therefore, before responding to the study questions read through any highlighted sections from prior student posts as well as any follow up posts from the instructor. If the study question has already been answered satisfactorily, students should address one of the instructor\’s follow up questions instead. The objective is to keep the conversation moving and avoid repetitive answers. Ideally, each comment should add something new to the conversation. Responses should be supported with direct, specific references to the assigned texts. Quotation (with parenthetical page citation) is encouraged and will be useful prep for the interpretive essays.

(2) In addition to the primary posts on each question, you must also respond within one class day to instructor requests for clarification or elaboration, if asked by name to do so. In general, my feedback on discussion posts will be directed at all students, regardless of who made the original post. However, if I address you directly with a question or directive, I expect a timely response. Make sure to check back regularly for both general and individual feedback. Subscribing and turning on notifications for the discussion forums can help you keep track of responses to your posts.

(3) Further, you must also provide a secondary response of at least 50 words for each question addressing the post of another student. This secondary post can respectfully agree or disagree with previous comments as long as a clear rationale is provided; it can also supplement them with additional textual evidence.

The requirement to respond to my feedback and other students\’ posts means that you will need to visit each thread at least twice. You will likely want to return to these threads at the end of the semester as well in order to prepare for the final exam. Pay close attention to my feedback on ALL posts because I may be making important corrections or clarifications as well as highlighting particularly strong answers. In the interests of keeping the discussion streamlined I am only going to respond to any particular issue the first time it arises rather than every time. Therefore, do not assume that ia post without an specific reply has no feedback; it may be that the relevant feedback was already given on a prior post. Within the threads, a selection of strong, convincing statements will be highlighted in blue; a selection of potentially problematic or controversial statements will be highlighted in red for further consideration.

I will upload the reading material and the questions to be answer, please follow the instructions as indicated

Thanks.
