Question 1 The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a well known icon around the world. The Sydney Opera House is about 500m away and from it, the angle of elevation to the top of the bridge is measured as 14°54' (to the nearest minute). The place where this measurement is made is 1m above the water level. On the other side of the harbour bridge, a second reading is taken from the second floor of a building 700m away and 20m above the water level. The angle of elevation is observed to be 9°15' (to the nearest minute). (a) Calculate an estimate of the height of the Harbour Bridge above the water level. (b) Discuss all possible errors in all measurements taken. (c) Give a range for the maximum and minimum height. Question 2 Three dice are thrown and the sum on the faces are recorded. This would give values ranging from 3 (1-1-1) to 18 (6-6-6). The experiment is run 300 times. (a) Either carry out the experiment by rolling 3 dice, 300 times or use Excel to simulate this experiment (Assistance is offered on how to do this in a consultation session if required). (b) Present the data in a table showing the frequency and cumulative frequency columns. (c) Compute the median, upper and lower quartiles (d) Calculate the mean and standard deviation for the results of your experiment either by the use of the stats mode on your calculcator or using excel. (e) Interprete the mean as an area and use Simpson’s Rule with 5 values, to estimate the mean again, (using the median, the quartiles and the upper and lower extremes of 3 and 18). Comment on how accurate this is. Question 3 People often are lost when it comes to knowing how much to they can borrow to buy their homes. Construct a simple spreadsheet application with the following as input variables The interest rate (% pa compounded monthly) The amount to be borrowed. The term in years of the loan. The combined salary of the people buying the house. The output of the calculator should include (a) The monthly repayment for the loan. (b) An estimate of when the loan would be half paid off. (c) The percentage of the combined salary the repayment represents. (d) The total interest paid out over the full term. (e) The increase in repayment per month, should there be a 1% increase in interest rates. (f) The decrease in the term if they switch to fortnightly repayments instead of monthly. Present printouts for the following examples. 1. A couple on $150,000 wanting to borrow $500,000 over 30 years at 4.5% pa 2. A sole income earner on a salary of $80,000 wanting to borrow $200,000 over 25 years at 5% pa 3. A student earning $30,000 taking a share in a house requiring a loan (for his part) of $100,000 over 10 years at 6% pa.

Preparing for Emergencies" Please respond to the following: Read the scenario below. Use the Internet to research the various grant opportunities for outfitting emergency response units. Then, select two (2) funds that you would apply for based on the scenario. Provide a rationale for your selection. Imagine that you are the director of homeland security for a state where several high-risk terrorism targets are located. There is a high probability of hazardous material incidents and you have identified credible threats associated with the emerging sovereign citizens’ movement. Your state agency is well prepared by having response units in place. However, you don’t have the funds to properly outfit all possible response units for each of the possible threats. Your agency is eligible to receive federal grant funds and you have been tasked with researching and writing the grant proposal. Over the last few years, potential pandemics have gained increased attention among law enforcement professionals at both the state and local levels.

Abstract: We describe the design, implementation, and evaluation of EMBERS, an automated, 24x7 continuous system for forecasting civil unrest across 10 countries of Latin America using open source indicators such as tweets, news sources, blogs, economic indicators, and other data sources. Unlike retrospective studies, EMBERS has been making forecasts into the future since Nov 2012 which have been (and continue to be) evaluated by an independent T&E team (MITRE). Of note, EMBERS has successfully forecast the June 2013 protests in Brazil and Feb 2014 violent protests in Venezuela. We outline the system architecture of EMBERS, individual models that leverage specific data sources, and a fusion and suppression engine that supports trading off specific evaluation criteria. EMBERS also provides an audit trail interface that enables the investigation of why specific predictions were made along with the data utilized for forecasting. Through numerous evaluations, we demonstrate the superiority of EMBERS over baserate methods and its capability to forecast significant societal happenings.

Abstract: EMBERS is an anticipatory intelligence system forecasting population-level events in multiple countries of Latin America. A deployed system from 2012, EMBERS has been generating alerts 24x7 by ingesting a broad range of data sources including news, blogs, tweets, machine coded events, currency rates, and food prices. In this paper, we describe our experiences operating EMBERS continuously for nearly 4 years, with specific attention to the discoveries it has enabled, correct as well as missed forecasts, and lessons learnt from participating in a forecasting tournament including our perspectives on the limits of forecasting and ethical considerations.

The Journal assignment will start this week. Three times a week (any days you like) , record your thoughts and perceptions, as well as the concrete policies, events, etc. associated with the coronavirus and it's political issues and effects. Each journal entry should be at least one page in length (give or take) and your entries should be related to each of the following: 1. FEDERALISM- How is federalism affecting the response to the virus? Is federalism good or bad for a crisis like this? Are states cooperating with each other? With the federal government? Are the president and state governors on the same page? Hurricane Katrina had some lessons, perhaps. These are just a few aspects you might be following for your entries. 2. SEPARATION OF POWERS- The three branches of government- what are they doing during this crisis? Are they playing their correct roles? Is the president providing clear leadership? What about congressional oversight? What's happening with that (Check out Trump's firing of the inspector general overseeing the new Coronavirus Aid Law) ? Is Trump on the same page as the "experts"? Should he be? What has been the role of the courts (check out the recent SCOTUS decision on in person and mail in voting, for example)? 3. POLITICS- Are political considerations affecting the response to the virus? Like what? What is good leadership? Are we getting it?

mitigation in disaster. Plan to do it. Do we understand our major risks? Do we know what is causing our risks to increase, decrease or stay the same? Have we assessed the likelihood and impact of our risks? Have we identified the sources and causes of our risks? How well are we managing our risks? Are we trying to prevent the downside of risk, or are we seemingly trying to recover from them? How will it be implemented? What is your framework? How will risks be measured and reported?
