Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The Great Basin is a mosaic of geographic contrasts: steep rugged mountains, harsh dry salty lakebeds, and sweeping valleys, and while the high desert and mountains of Nevada may appear desolate, but those who choose to look and linger will find Nevada ruggedly beautiful and home to mineralogical treasures. Bonanza deposits of silver attracted mid-nineteenth century miners to the Nevada desert. Then, as the rich Comstock Lode played out, deposits yielding copper, antimony, mercury, and undreamed of quantities of gold were brought online. Today the "Silver State" is by far the largest domestic producer of gold. And not just of the disseminated variety; visible, collectible gold has been found and is waiting to be discovered all around the state. From silver, barite, orpiment, opal, gold, turquoise, and stibnite to a host of rare species, mineral specimens and lapidary materials from Nevada are sought by collectors the world over. And Lithographie's monograph "Nevada - Jackpot!" celebrates them in all their glory. Nevada mining and mineral experts share their insights into the state's mining history, geology, localities, and specimens. Their texts are brilliantly illuminated with images by photographic talents both local and international. Complete with a one-of-a-kind 16-by-18-inch, indexed map of the state's localities, "Nevada" is simply a must for the libraries of mineral collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. Risk Management Security Improving the United States Air Force Protection Level Asset Security System. Book.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - United States involvement in Somalia encompassed a myriad of missions that were structured in three distinct stages. It began with the humanitarian assistance mission, Operation Provide Relief. Operation Restore Hope, the second stage, was a combination of humanitarian assistance and limited military involvement. The final stage, UNOSOM II, involved a peace enforcement and nation building mission. On Sunday, 3 October 1993, the relative success of UNOSOM II suddenly turned violent when a US Task Force came under heavy fire from Somali gunmen. The US Task Force, code named Task Force RANGER, was ill-prepared to cope with the type of urban guerrilla warfare prevalent in Mogadishu, and ultimately led to mission failure. This research paper will critically analyze this significant military defeat by uncovering the facts leading up to and during the mission. Once the facts have been uncovered, this paper will link the effects back to the causes of this disaster. Finally, this paper will propose alternative courses of action that may have improved the chance of mission success or prevented this disaster. In addition, these alternative courses of action should be used as learning tools for future operations other than war.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For years, the Air Force methodology for securing its protection level assets has been primarily based on risk acceptance. Risk acceptance is basically an attempt to prevent the loss of, damage to, or theft of resources while 'assuming' an acceptable level of risk from an adversarial attack. This 'assumed' acceptable level of risk is primarily based on operational considerations and financial constraints, and in most cases, relies on a threat that is postulated rather than actual. However, in today's intense environment of strict personal and financial accountability, the Air Force can no longer afford to protect its assets in this manner. The threats and vulnerabilities associated with Air Force protection level assets can never be fully eliminated, nor would the cost and benefit warrant an attempt to do so. In most cases, however, it is possible to minimize these 'assumptions' concerning risk by balancing the risk of loss or damage against the costs of countermeasures and select a mix that provides adequate protection without excessive cost. As opposed to risk acceptance, risk management security dictates protection of only those resources that can be justified as a result of a systematic process, thus limiting the 'assumptions' concerning acceptable levels of risk. It requires measurement, estimation, and careful judgment based on available data. It is the process for determining protection level asset vulnerabilities and threats and then implementing security countermeasures to achieve an acceptable level of risk at an acceptable cost.…
