Fentanyl has become one of the most prominent drugs found in drug samples analyzed by drug laboratories. What other illicit drug is fentanyl usually found in combination with?

Description

For this discussion question, read pages 3-25 of the 2020 National Drug Threat Assessment (contained in this week’s learning resources) and answer the following questions: 1. DEA Field Divisions seized a total of 6,951 kilograms of heroin in 2019. How did this quantity compare to heroin seizures in 2018? In what states were the largest amounts of seizures made? What is the significance of seizures primarily occurring in these states and what impact would these seizures have on heroin markets in other areas? 2. Fentanyl has become one of the most prominent drugs found in drug samples analyzed by drug laboratories. What other illicit drug is fentanyl usually found in combination with? Why would fentanyl be combined with this drug? How has this combination impacted overdose deaths? 3. None of the fentanyl or heroin in the illicit drug market is produced domestically; yet, overdose deaths from these two drugs continue to be the primary threat in our communities. Given these facts, and using the NDTA, where is the majority of the heroin and fentanyl in US drug markets coming from and in what percentage of the total US market? How are the drugs getting from the source country into the US? 4. State and local law enforcement agency drug units have very little direct impact on the drug supply at the international level; yet, the information that these units have from their drug investigations is critical to the overall intelligence assessment. How are state and local narcotic unit detectives able to conduct and participate in investigations that can directly impact Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs) who smuggle drugs into the US? Given an example of a case that was investigated jointly with the DEA and state and local detectives.

Evaluate employees’ exposures to methyl n-amyl ketone during a painting operation. After careful consideration, you choose NIOSH Method 2553 for the sampling

You are asked to evaluate employees’ exposures to methyl n-amyl ketone during a painting operation. After careful consideration, you choose NIOSH Method 2553 for the sampling. You can access the method by clicking the link below: National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. (2003). Ketones II: Method 2553. In P. M. Eiler & M. E. Cassinelli (Eds.), NIOSH manual of analytical methods (4th ed.). Retrieved from http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2003- 154/pdfs/2553.pdf Your pre-sampling and post-sampling pump calibrations using a primary standard are both 0.05 L/min. You collect personal samples on two employees working in the operation. The samples are collected for 430 minutes (Sample 1) and 440 minutes (Sample 2). 1. Calculate the sample volumes for each of the samples. The laboratory reports that the front section of Sample 1 contains 5,000 µg of methyl n-amyl ketone and the back section contains 200 µg of methyl n-amyl ketone. The front section of Sample 2 contains 4,000 µg of methyl n-amyl ketone and the back section contains 50 µg of methyl n-amyl ketone. Neither the front nor back sections of the field blank you supplied contain any detectable levels of methyl n-amyl ketone. 1. Calculate the concentrations of the two personal samples in µg/L and mg/m³. 2. Convert the result to ppm (MW for methyl n-amyl ketone = 114.2). 3. Show all the steps for your calculations. You then reference OSHA’s Table Z-1 and find that the 8-hour TWA PEL for methyl n-amyl ketone is 100 ppm 1. Discuss how the results of the two personal samples you collected compare to the OSHA PEL, and describe the sampling method you implemented. You also look up the ACGIH TLV for methyl n-amyl ketone and find that the TLV is 50 ppm as an 8-hour TWA exposure. 1. Discuss how the results for the two personal samples compare to the ACGIH TLV. 2. Discuss whether you would recommend comparing the results of your sampling to the OSHA PEL or the ACGIH TLV. Include your rationale for the choice, and explain how you would rationalize your choice to your employer. The case study should be a minimum of three pages in length, and you should cite the NIOSH document using APA style. Information about accessing the grading rubric for this assignment is provided below.

Respond to the video of Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner performing her poem “Dear Matafele Peinem” to the UN Climate Leaders Summit in 2014.

In this week’s discussion post, I want you to respond to the video of Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner performing her poem “Dear Matafele Peinem” to the UN Climate Leaders Summit in 2014.(https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_3537214139&feature=iv&src_vid=L4fdxXo4tnY&v=DJuRjy9k7GA) Respond to her performance: what is it about? How does it make you feel? (I would suggest watching the video at least two times.) How does it connect with things that we are learning about this region, and in particular how sea level rise due to climate change is effecting small island nations (for example, see page 427 in WRGC). Then, do some basic online research on the term “climate justice.” What is climate justice and do you think that Jetnil-Kijiner’s performance highlights issues of climate justice? If so, how?

Discuss, in 500 words, how you would advise your current employer to use encryption to reduce the vulnerabilities of  their data at rest, in use, and in transit (or in motion).  Identify at what points you think their data is at the highest risk.

Discuss, in 500 words, how you would advise your current employer to use encryption to reduce the vulnerabilities of their data at rest, in use, and in transit (or in motion). Identify at what points you think their data is at the highest risk. Consider where the data is when it at rest, in transit, or in use and the potential vulnerabilities associated with each of those locations Cite your sources. Do not copy. Write in essay format not in bulleted, numbered or other list format. Reply to two classmates’ posting in a paragraph of at least five sentences by asking questions, reflecting on your own experience, challenging assumptions, pointing out something new you learned, offering suggestions. You should make your initial post by Thursday evening so your classmates have an opportunity to respond before Sunday.at midnight when all three posts are due. It is important that you use your own words, that you cite your sources, that you comply with the instructions regarding length of your post and that you reply to two classmates in a substantive way (not ‘nice post’ or the like). Your goal is to help your colleagues write better. Do not use spinbot or other word replacement software. It usually results in nonsense and is not a good way to learn anything. Please do not use attachments unless requested.Note:-Please use my prompts as a starting point for your discussion posts. What I am looking for is for each student to find something different to say not to recycle the same pablum. This is a graduate program so simply writing definitions is not what we are after. Use your higher order cognitive skills (analysis, synthesis, evaluation, etc). A solution is to find something that happened at work to explore and write about (You could, for example, explore the ransomware attack that happened at one student’s office. His solution was to encrypt the data but is that really a protection against that sort of attack? And, how did they get hacked, anyway? I wanted to know as soon as I read it ). You could also find something at work that you want to know more about and explore that. Or, maybe, something specific in your reading or in the news attracts your eye. For example, the Russian hacking of election systems or the Chinese hack of the US navy. Lately, I’ve been intrigued by stories of people hacking the hackers. Find something that makes you want to do the research and writing.
