Bella gets pulled over and makes the most of it.
Ch 5
"Cheers to another great night of work ladies and gentlemen" Jon roared as he raised a glass of wine in front of his crew. He continued "Thanks you all. Everyone, from the dancers, to the cooks, to the waitresses. This restaurant, and my dream, could not thrive like it is without each and every one of you."
With that, Bella and her co workers cheered and gulped down their small glasses of wine. This became a ritual at the end of Friday night shift. The girls laughed and chatted among each other as they entered the change room and began to get ready to go home.
Bella loved working here, and so did the other girls. Jon was a good boss, he knew how to keep the morale of his workers high. Bella said goodbye to her coworkers, gave Jon a kiss on her way out, and made her way to her car.
Meanwhile, a few blocks away, Officer Jack Tanner was lurking the streets in his police cruiser. He was working yet another Friday night shift. Whereas most family men like him would hate working this time slot, he loved it. He knew there were always a plethora of beautiful girls hitting the town, tipsily making their way home. The old officer loved stopping these young women and harassing them.
You see, in his younger days, Jack had been a sort of hero in the police force, being known as a brave and goodhearted man that had made many high profile arrests. These decades of good service had earned him a lot of influence in the police force, and he knew it. But alas, as the decades wore on, Jack found himself less enthused about upholding justice, and more consumed with fulfilling his personal desires.
He knew that with his good reputation and the fact that he was nearing retirement, he could get away with his little games. If any girl squealed, it would simply be his word against hers.
The old cop cruised the streets, entering the downtown district, where the high profile clubs and restaurants were. His attention was drawn to a parking lot where a handful of gorgeous young things were walking to their respective cars. He turned into an alley across the parking lot and watched.
One caught his eye more than any other though. A beautiful white girl looking as if she wasn't even legal.
He admired her ivory colored skin and shapely body. She was wearing a tight fitting black blouse, buttoned up to to the top, covering the entirety of her chest. Even though her chest was covered, Jack could tell this young girl was well endowed. Her ample bust projected out from her body and pushed against the tight blouse.
As she turned her back to him and stuck her key in the driver seat door, he noticed her loose fitting black skirt inch up just above her knee level, exposing the bottom part of her thigh.
Jack smiled as he saw her getting into the car by herself, it was always easier when they were alone.
As Bella pulled out of the parking lot, Jack pulled out of the alley and trailed her. He stayed 2-3 cars behind.
Bella left the downtown district and started to make her way through a much quieter part of town, travelling on a secluded road. Jack knew it was time. Now directly behind her car, he flashed his lights.
Bella started panicking, the young girl had never been pulled over before. She immediately pulled over, and wondered what could possible be wrong. Bella always had a sort of fear of police officers. In Serbia they were known for being very corrupt, being no better than criminals some of the time. Her parents had always told her to avoid the police.
Officer Jack parked and slowly made his way out of the car. Bella looked through her side view mirror. She saw an old but physically imposing man making his way slowly to her car. He was well over 6 feet, and had wide shoulders with a muscular build. Bella was starting to get anxious. She rolled down her window as the officer approached her car.
"Hello young lady, license and registration please" he said sternly
Bella frantically reached across her car to the glove compartment to fish out her registration papers.
The officer took this opportunity to admire her dangling breasts as she reached her body across the car. They were huge, swaying in every which direction as she moved.
She finally fished out her papers and handed it to him. Although her hands were shaking, she forced out a smile.
Jack was astonished by her beauty. She had big green eyes that sparkled in the light, silky brown hair that flowed over her shoulders, and a beautiful smile.
He took the papers from her hand. He examined her driver's license.
"Only 17 I see, is this your car?"
"N-no sir, it's my parents" Bella muttered
"Ok, and any drinks tonight?"
"N-no sir." she lied
"Ok young lady, I'm just going to get you to take this breathalyzer and then if everything is clear I'll let you get on your way home"
Bella started to panic, she knew she had one drink at the end of her shift. It was just one drink though! Surely this cop would let her go.
Jack took the breathalyzer out of his belt.
"Just blow in to this end for as long as you can"
Bella was starting to sweat. She did as she was told.
Jack noticed her chest start to expand as she took a deep breath in, straining the buttons on her tight silk black blouse. She blew into the breathalyzer.
Jack withdrew the device and read it. Though she was well below the illegal level required to drive, it did show that she had some alcohol tonight.
He looked at her again
"I'm gonna ask you one more time, did you have any drinks tonight?"
Bella knew she had been caught
"Yes sir, just one drink sir at the end of shift with my co workers."
"So you lied to me" he stated sternly "Get out of the car"
Bella started to tear up. she stepped out of the car and stood in front of him.
"Young lady, you are underage. If you were honest with me I would have let you go with a citation. But now, you'll have to do everything I say if you don't want me to arrest you."
Bella knew she couldn't be arrested. Not only would she lose her scholarship, but if her parents found out that she had been arrested for drinking they would never let her leave the house again!
"Of course sir I'll do anything in order not to be arrested" she exclaimed
"Good. I'm going to conduct some tests just to see how intoxicated you are."
He led her to the other side of the car, using the car as a shield to any passing traffic.
He stood behind her, now having her right where he wanted her.
"Take your heels off."
Bella took off her 4 inch black heels, feeling the cold pavement beneath her feet.
"Now bend down as low as you can, keeping your legs straight."
Bella complied. She bent at the waist, being a flexible dancer, she was able to put her palms on the pavement. Jon watched as her black skirt crept up her thigh, revealing more and more of her young flesh.
"Hold the stretch" he commanded
A light breeze blew by, lifting her skirt up inches higher. This revealed the bottoms of her ass cheeks, and a delicate black thong.
"Stand back up."
Bella did as she was commanded
"Now, standing on one leg, bend at the waist again and put your palms on the ground. Stick your other leg straight out behind you"
She did this with ease.
Jack took in the beautiful sight in front of him. Now her left leg out in the air was completely exposed. Her skirt was split open giving Jack a magnificent view up her skirt. He admired her great ass, the way it enveloped the tiny black string of the silk thong.
"Face me now, touch your elbows behind your back."
She tried to, but her blouse was too tight. As she brought her elbows behind her back, she felt the buttons of her blouse strain under the tension of her big breasts.
"I can't sir, my blouse is too tight." she replied
"Then take your blouse off." he commanded
Bella was shocked at how open this man of the law was with his perverseness. But she had no choice but to comply.
She looked at him anxiously, as she started to unbutton her blouse. With each button, more of her delicious cleavage was revealed to the dirty old cop. He couldn't help but lick his lips.
She took off her blouse and put it on the roof of her car.
Jack stood in awe of this 17 year old's magnificent DD cup breasts, held in a silk black bra.
"Go on" he ordered
Now she put her elbows behind her back, making them touch, This made her breasts thrust out, almost too much for the flimsy little bra to handle. She held the position.
Jack couldn't believe how such a busty girl could have such a narrow waist and slim, toned stomach. Her Ivory skin glowed in the moonlight.
"Ok, now put your hands against your car and spread your legs. I'm going to search you for narcotics" he commanded.
"W-what!?" Bella exclaimed "I just had a drink,I don't have any drugs!"
"You lied to me about drinking, how do I know you're not hiding drugs. Either I do this here or I arrest you and a woman officer can do it at the station." He knew from her reaction that this girl had too much to lose to get arrested.
"Ok sir just do it here." she said as she put her arms against the car, splitting her legs; causing her skirt to ride up.
This was too much for Jack to resist.
He put his hands on the band of her skirt and pulled it down; exposing her perky ass. He admired how it jut out from the small of her back.
Bella knew this had nothing to do with her drinking, and everything to do with this old perv wanting to get off.
He put his arms around her thin waist, and crept his hands upward until they encased her ample breasts. He gave them a squeeze, feeling them through her thin bra. He circled her nipples, faintly able to make them out.
"Hmm feels like there might be something in there." he said as her nipples got harder
Bella couldn't help but get a little bit excited by the sensation of this big officer feeling up her breasts.
"Maybe you should take off my bra to examine further?" Bella said, not believing the words that just escaped her mouth
Jack couldn't believe it either. Was this girl actually enjoying this?
He unhooked her bra and let it fall to the ground, letting her DD cup breasts fall free. He took them in his hands and started squeezing them. His cock was now rock hard as he pressed his groin against her thong covered ass.
She found herself thrusting her ass out, feeling his big bulge with her ass cheeks.
There was also an added thrill of being nude in public that thrilled Bella. She had never experienced this before. She wanted now to be fully nude. Jack fulfilled her wish before she even spoke.
He slid her panties down and she stepped out of them. The feeling of being completely nude in public was driving her crazy. There hadn't been any cars that had driven by, but the risk that there could be prying eyes was exciting her.
Jack knelt down, his face was level with Bella's ivory white ass. He had never seen a butt like this in his life.
He stuck his finger into the crease of her ass, and slid it down to the entrance of her pussy.
"You might be hiding something in her." he feigned. They both knew he was fooling nobody.
Bella moaned as his finger entered her pussy. She was starting to desire his cock.
Jack now needed to have this pussy. He opened the passenger door and sat in the seat. He picked up Bella by the waist with his brutish hands and placed the naked beauty on his lap.
She was facing him, splitting his groin with her legs.
He squeezed her tits and brought them to his face. He started licking and sucking them like a mad man.
This was driving Bella crazy. She unzipped his trousers, his massive cock sprung free. Bella looked down in awe, she had never seen a cock so thick.
She took control of the situation. She thrust her pussy on to his big dick. She moaned loudly as it entered her.
She took Jack's face in her hands and started to kiss him passionately, swirling her tongue around in his mouth.
They both moaned as Bella rode the old officer. Jack had never felt a pussy so tight and warm.
Bella, at this point, was dripping wet. She had never had a dick like this in her before. Also the fact that she was fucking a cop was driving her crazy. Here was a man whose job was to uphold the law, and he was fucking an underage girl!
"Fuck me harder you dirty old man!" she moaned "Treat me like a little slut"
Jack grabbed her luscious ass cheeks and squeezed them hard, causing Bella to moan loudly.
In his mouth, he took Bella's nipple and starting nibbling on it. This made Bella squeal. She loved the pain.
Jack noticed how Bella was getting off on being abused. It turned him on so much. He bit her nipple harder, while twisting the other one.
Bella was in so much pain now, but she was so excited.
She felt a powerful orgasm coming on. She screamed as her juices started to flow on to Jack's cock and groin. Bella collapsed on to Jacks large frame. His cock was still hard, he wasn't done with her yet.
He tossed the petite girl in the back seat on her stomach. He got out his handcuffs and brought Bella's hands behind her back. He latched the handcuffs on, now this girl was completely in his control.
Being restrained like this turned Bella on. What came next drove her crazy.
Jack started spanking the helpless girl. His cock twitched as Bella's shapely ass cheeks jiggled uncontrollably with each slap. Her cheeks started to redden with each spank.
She yelped as the relentless spanking was making her cheeks feel like they were on fire. But she was in no state to stop Jack. All the while, her pussy was dripping.
When Jack could take it no longer, he stuffed his cock into her dripping pussy. Her now red ass jiggled with each thrust, cushioning Jack's pelvis as he fucked this beauty.
He grabbed a handful of Bella's hair and pulled it roughly, causing her head to lift up off of the bed. He twisted her hair around his hand, grabbing more of it and pulling ruthlessly.
Bella moaned loudly, she loved how he was manhandling her
"O-o-oh my god keep going" she begged.
Jack wrapped his other brutish hand around Bella's slender neck, gripping it with force. Bella had to forcibly breath to get any air into her.
As Jack got closer to coming, he gripped her neck and pulled her hair with more force.
Bella now felt like she couldn't breath. But with her hands cuffed, she was unable to do anything.
Finally, Jack moaned as he unleashed a wave of semen into Bella's young pussy. He put the length of his cock inside Bella as he came.
As he came, he let go of Bella's hair and neck, causing her to collapse on to the seat.
With that, he unlocked the cuffs, stepped out of the car and composed himself. Bella, meanwhile, wasn't sure where she was. That sex was incredible. He leaned into the car
"Well little lady, you just earned yourself a get out of jail free card. You have a good night." He smiled as he started to make his way back to his car
Bella simply moaned goodbye. When all of a sudden, an idea hit her.
She leaned out of her car, completely naked. she yelled "Wait sir, come back!"
The old officer made his way back to her car
"I have a proposal. You help me out and I'll help you out.. any time you want it." Bella said seductively
The old man was intrigued
"And what's that"
"There's a certain old man that has been harassing me. He's been blackmailing me into doing terrible things for him.. Could I get you to pay him a visit?"
"Hmm, that sounds like a lot of trouble. And what will you do for me."
"Well trust me sir. If you take care of him for me, I'll take care of you. Over and over again." She smiled seductively
The old man smiled back. He couldn't pass up this opportunity
"Sure thing sweetheart. Get dressed and take a ride with me. Explain to me in more detail what's going on and we'll pay this old man a visit."
Bella smiled to herself. She may finally be getting out of that lecherous Ron's grasp.

I've liked Dunbar since I first saw him in preseason last year. I think the young man gives it a good effort and has talent and a good attitude. I was excited to see him make that catch and run all the way down near the goal line. Then I was crushed by that fumble. I saw a young player working hard to make the team, but who got sloppy. I hope he gets it together because if he's reliable with the ball, I believe he can help the team win. I'd also like to see him improve in his blocking.
That burst of speed can't be taught. Ball handling can. Dunbar has a bright future as long as he continues to work on his ball security.
The fumble was a fluke play. The run after the catch was nothing short of brilliant. I had no idea he had that type of quickness and acceleration in him. Also made a nice move to gain separation on the route. Not many LBs are going to be able to deal with him1-on-1 in open space.

Best-Selling Author, Entrepreneur, Wealth Creator, and TV Commentator Robert Pagliarini said, "Instead of trying to bob and weave what life throws at us, I'd rather have the comfort of knowing that I can take life's best shot and be able to get back up and move forward. To me, that's empowerment."
In an episode of Cartoon Network's "The Grim Adventures of Bill and Mandy," a grownup spider struggles with feelings of rejections by the father who "hatched" him — Billy. Fed up with trying to win his affection he finally snaps, corners him and yells, "Love me Dad! Looooove meeeee!"
While this is a comedic reaction to rejection it is also an accurate assessment of what many people experience emotionally. Although a normal part of a person's life, rejection can cause many people to feel stuck, confused, or feel the hurt deeper than normal. Some people do not feel empowered.
"No" usually just means "not now." It's all about the timing. Dream job rejection? Just not at that firm. Lost the love of your life? Not at this moment and not with that person. You are only being turned away by a person or entity, not by the ability to achieve something. Intimate love, family cohesiveness, and artistic acceptance can be found at another time and with another venue, which leads to:
Sometimes we will have problems with not fitting into certain groups. We won't fit in everywhere. We don't have to fit in everywhere. Maria Brophy, an art licensing and marketing consultant at MariaBrophy.com, wrote the following:
" ... our persona is not going to be a match with everyone. We have our people, and they love us. And the other people, well, they have their own thing that we just don't fit with. And that's OK. We all have to find the people that get us, that understand what we are doing, and that appreciate it."
After you find that you don't fit in somewhere, take some time to grieve if it is needed, then view it as an opportunity and go and find people that get you.
Do you let too much ride on a relationship or project that is getting rejected? Exactly who is rejecting you? It is probably one person, one individual, or one group. It's not the entire universe (as much as your emotions are screaming that it is). Thoughts are real but it doesn't mean they are true. Take a deep breath and do your best to separate thought, emotion, and logic. The quicker you allow facts and logical thinking to take control the less chance there is of spiraling into a depression and slipping into old patterns of not feeling "good enough."
Rejection begins at a very young age so most people recognize the feelings immediately. Feeling low, gloomy, and despondent for a few days is normal. Depending on the nature of the rejection these sad feelings may last for a few weeks. Although there is no set time frame for when a person should be "bouncing back" C. Brendan Hallett of Salt Lake City's Center For Human Potential suggests answering some questions to determine if a person may need to seek professional help:
Do I feel badly or worse about myself after rejection for an extended period?
Do I feel less capable?
Do I like myself less?
Do I feel like I can't bounce back and try again?
Does the rejection get turned into lower self-esteem?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes it is a good idea to find a mental health care provider that you feel comfortable with to help you understand why you are feeling stuck.
"It begins with self-efficacy — a belief in what you can or can't do," Hallett says. It begins in childhood when a person may not have had a supportive environment when he or she was experiencing the normal experiences of rejection.
"So as an adult when rejection comes they feel, 'Oh, here we go again' and the person feels powerless, it sets them back," Hallett continues. "For a person who was raised to feel supported, when life gives rejection — which happens all the time — they know how to better overcome it and approaches [rejection] as an opportunity."
Hallett stresses that somehow a person needs to internalize the idea that he or she matters, to somehow separate what happened — the rejection — from his or her capabilities.
"Try to avoid letting the rejection make you feel bad about yourself or that you can't do it," he advises. "It comes down to that internalization, whether you can deal with setbacks or whether you need a different approach."
Rejection is a normal — and necessary — part of a human being's life. It is normal to want to feel secure and rejection can leave a person feeling abandoned, frightened and insecure. But these feelings don't have to linger. Try to change the way you view rejection (seeking help if you need it) and recognize that it's only temporary. Avoid letting the rejection make you feel bad about yourself or that you can't do something. We can get back up and move forward. We can become empowered.

Resilience Engineering
According to the Oxford English Dictionary on Historical Principles (1973), resilience is "the act of rebounding or springing back." This definition most directly fits the situation of materials which return to their original shape after deformation. For human-made systems this definition can be extended to say "the ability of a system to recover from a disruption ." The US government definition for infrastructure systems is the "ability of systems, infrastructures, government, business, communities, and individuals to resist, tolerate, absorb, recover from, prepare for, or adapt to an adverse occurrence that causes harm, destruction, or loss of national significance" (DHS 2010). The concept of creating a resilient human-made system or resilience engineering is discussed by Hollnagel, Woods, and Leveson (2006). The principles are elaborated by Jackson (2010).
Resilience is a relatively new term in the SE realm, appearing only in the 2006 timeframe and becoming popularized in the 2010 timeframe. The recent application of "resilience" to engineered systems has led to confusion over its meaning and a proliferation of alterative definitions. (One expert claims that well over 100 unique definitions of resilience have appeared.) The details will continue to be discussed and debated, but the information here should provide a working understanding of the meaning and implementation of resilience, sufficient for a system engineer to effectively address it.
It is difficult to identify a single definition that – word for word – satisfies all. However, it is possible to gain general agreement of what is meant by resilience of engineered systems; viz., Resilience is the ability to provide required capability in the face of adversity.
Scope of the means
In applying this definition, one needs to consider the range of means by which resilience is achieved: The means of achieving resilience include avoiding, withstanding, recovering from and evolving and adapting to adversity. These may also be considered the fundamental objectives of resilience. Classically, resilience includes "withstanding" and "recovering" from adversity. For the purpose of engineered systems, "avoiding" adversity is considered a legitimate means of achieving resilience. Jackson and Ferris (2016). Also, it is believed that resilience should consider the system's ability to "evolve and adapt" to future threats and unknown-unknowns.
Scope of the adversity
Another consideration will be to identify the range of adversities that are to be considered by resilience. We propose that the SE must consider all; i.e., environmental, normal failure and opponent, friendly & neutral parties.
The purpose of resilience engineering and architecting is to achieve full or partial recovery of a system following an encounter with a threat that disrupts the functionality of that system. Threats can be natural, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, or tsunamis. Threats can be internal and human-made such as reliability flaws and human error. Threats can be external and human-made, such as terrorist attacks. Often, a single incident is the result of multiple threats, such as a human error committed in the attempt to recover from another threat.
Figure 1 depicts the loss and recovery of the functionality of a system. System types include product systems of a technological nature and enterprise systems such as civil infrastructures. They can be either individual systems or systems of systems. A resilient system possesses four attributes — capacity , flexibility , tolerance , and cohesion — and thirteen top level design principles through which to achieve these attributes. The four attributes are adapted from Hollnagel, Woods, and Leveson (2006), and the design principles are extracted from Hollnagel et al. and are elaborated based on Jackson (2010).
The Capacity Attribute
Capacity is the attribute of a system that allows it to withstand a threat. Resilience allows that the capacity of a system may be exceeded, forcing the system to rely on the remaining attributes to achieve recovery. The following design principles apply to the capacity attribute:
- The absorption design principle calls for the system to be designed including adequate margin to withstand a design-level threat.
- The physical redundancy design principle states that the resilience of a system is enhanced when critical components are physically redundant.
- The functional redundancy design principle calls for critical functions to be duplicated using different means.
- The layered defense design principle states that single points of failure should be avoided.
The absorption design principle requires the implementation of traditional specialties, such as Reliability and Safety.
The Flexibility Attribute
Flexibility is the attribute of a system that allows it to restructure itself in the face of a threat. The following design principles apply to the flexibility attribute:
- The reorganization design principle says that the system should be able to change its own architecture before, during, or after the encounter with a threat. This design principle is applicable particularly to human systems.
- The human backup design principle requires that humans be involved to back up automated systems especially when unprecedented threats are involved.
- The complexity avoidance design principle calls for the minimization of complex elements, such as software and humans, except where they are essential (see human backup design principle).
- The drift correction design principle states that detected threats or conditions should be corrected before the encounter with the threat. The condition can either be immediate as for example the approach of a threat, or they can be latent within the design or the organization.
The Tolerance Attribute
Tolerance is the attribute of a system that allows it to degrade gracefully following an encounter with a threat. The following design principles apply to the tolerance attribute.
- The localized capacity design principle states that, when possible, the functionality of a system should be concentrated in individual nodes of the system and stay independent of the other nodes.
- The loose coupling design principle states that cascading failures in systems should be checked by inserting pauses between the nodes. According to Perrow (1999) humans at these nodes have been found to be the most effective.
- The neutral state design principle states that systems should be brought into a neutral state before actions are taken.
- The reparability design principle states that systems should be reparable to bring the system back to full or partial functionality.
Most resilience design principles affect system design processes such as architecting. The reparability design principle affects the design of the sustainment system.
The Cohesion Attribute
Cohesion is the attribute of a system that allows it to operate before, during, and after an encounter with a threat. According to (Hitchins 2009), cohesion is a basic characteristic of a system. The following global design principle applies to the cohesion attribute.
- The inter-node interaction design principle requires that nodes (elements) of a system be capable of communicating, cooperating, and collaborating with each other. This design principle also calls for all nodes to understand the intent of all the other nodes as described by (Billings 1991).
The Resilience Process
Implementation of resilience in a system requires the execution of both analytic and holistic processes. In particular, the use of architecting with the associated heuristics is required. Inputs are the desired level of resilience and the characteristics of a threat or disruption. Outputs are the characteristics of the system, particularly the architectural characteristics and the nature of the elements (e.g., hardware, software, or humans).
Artifacts depend on the domain of the system. For technological systems, specification and architectural descriptions will result. For enterprise systems, enterprise plans will result.
Both analytic and holistic methods, including the principles of architecting, are required. Analytic methods determine required capacity. Holistic methods determine required flexibility, tolerance, and cohesion. The only aspect of resilience that is easily measurable is that of capacity. For the attributes of flexibility, tolerance, and cohesion, the measures are either Boolean (yes/no) or qualitative. Finally, as an overall measure of resilience, the four attributes (capacity, flexibility, tolerance, and cohesion) can be weighted to produce an overall resilience score.
The greatest pitfall is to ignore resilience and fall back on the assumption of protection. The Critical Thinking project (CIPP 2007) lays out the path from protection to resilience. Since resilience depends in large part on holistic analysis, it is a pitfall to resort to reductionist thinking and analysis. Another pitfall is failure to consider the systems of systems philosophy, especially in the analysis of infrastructure systems. Many examples show that systems are more resilient when they employ the cohesion attribute — the New York Power Restoration case study by Mendoca and Wallace (2006, 209-219) is one. The lesson is that every component system in a system of systems must recognize itself as such, and not as an independent system.
Practical Considerations
Resilience is difficult to achieve for infrastructure systems because the nodes (cities, counties, states, and private entities) are reluctant to cooperate with each other. Another barrier to resilience is cost. For example, achieving redundancy in dams and levees can be prohibitively expensive. Other aspects, such as communicating on common frequencies, can be low or moderate cost; even there, cultural barriers have to be overcome for implementation.
System Description
A system is "[a]n integrated set of elements, subsystems or assemblies that accomplish a defined objective." INCOSE (2015) A capability is "…an expression of a system … to achieve a specific objective under stated conditions." INCOSE (2015)
Resilience is the ability of a system to provide required capability in the face of adversity. Resilience in the realm of systems engineering involves identifying: 1) the capabilities that are required of the system, 2) the adverse conditions under which the system is required to deliver those capabilities, and 3) the systems engineering to ensure that the system can provide the required capabilities.
Put simply, resilience is achieved by a systems engineering focusing on adverse conditions.
Principles for Achieving Resilience
34 principles and support principles described by Jackson and Ferris (2013) include both design and process principles that will be used to define a system of interest in an effort to make it resilient. These principles were extracted from many sources. Prominent among these sources is Hollnagel et al (2006). Other sources include Leveson (1995), Reason (1997), Perrow (1999), and Billings(1997). Some principles were implied in case study reports, such as the 9/11 Commission report (2004) and the US-Canada Task Force report (2004) following the 2003 blackout.
These principles include very simple and well-known principles as physical redundancy and more sophisticated principles as loose coupling. Some of these principles are domain dependent, such as loose coupling, which is important in the power distribution domain as discussed by Perrow (1999). These principles will be the input to the state-transition analysis of Section 8 to determine the characteristics of a given system for a given threat.
In the resilience literature the term principle is used to describe both scientifically accepted principles and also heuristics, design rules determined from experience as described by Rechtin (1991). Jackson and Ferris (2013) showed that it is necessary to invoke these principles in combinations to enhance resilience. This concept is called defense in depth. Pariès (2011) illustrates how defense in depth was used to achieve resilience in the 2009 ditching of US Airways Flight 1549.
Uday and Marais (2015) apply the above principles to the design of a system-of-systems. Henry and Ramirez-Marquez (2016) describe the state of the U.S. East Coast infrastructure in resilience terms following the impact of Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Bodeau & Graubert (2011) propose a framework for understanding and addressing cyber-resilience. They propose a taxonomy comprised of four goals, eight objectives, and fourteen cyber-resilience practices. Many of these goals, objectives and practices can be applied to non-cyber resilience.
Discipline Management
Most enterprises, both military and commercial, include organizations generally known as Advanced Design. These organizations are responsible for defining the architecture of a system at the very highest level of the system architecture. This architecture reflects the resilience principles described in Section 2 and the processes associated with that system. In many domains, such as fire protection, no such organization will exist. However, the system architecture will still need to be defined by the highest level of management in that organization. In addition, some aspects of resilience will be defined by government imposed requirements as described in Section 5.
Discipline Relationships
Resilience Discipline Outputs
The primary outputs of the resilience discipline are a subset of the principles described by Jackson and Ferris (2013) which have been determined to be appropriate for a given system, threat, and desired state of resilience as determined by the state-transition analysis described below. The processes requiring these outputs are the system design and system architecture processes.
Resilience Discipline Inputs
Inputs to the state-transition analysis described in Section 8 include (1) type of system of interest, (2) nature of threats to the system (earthquakes, terrorist threats, human error, etc.).
Discipline Standards
ASIS International
ASIS (2009) has published a standard pertaining to the resilience of organizational systems. Some of the principles described in this standard can also be found in the larger set of principles described by Jackson and Ferris (2013) for engineered systems in general containing hardware, software, and humans.
Personnel Considerations
None have been identified.
Uday & Marais (2015) performed a survey of resilience metrics. Those identified include:
- Time duration of failure
- Time duration of recovery
- Ratio of performance recovery to performance loss
- A function of speed of recovery
- Performance before and after the disruption and recovery actions
- System importance measures
Jackson (2016) developed a metric to evaluate various systems in four domains: aviation, fire protection, rail, and power distribution, for the principles that were lacking in ten different case studies. The principles are from the set identified by Jackson and Ferris (2013) and are represented in the form of a histogram plotting principles against frequency of omission. The data in these gaps were taken from case studies in which the lack of principles was inferred from recommendations by domain experts in the various cases cited.
Brtis (2016) surveyed and evaluated a number of potential resilience metrics and identified the following: [Note: This reference is going through approval for public release and should be referenceable by the end of July 2016.]
- Maximum outage period
- Maximum brownout period
- Maximum outage depth
- Expected value of capability: the probability-weighted average of capability delivered
- Threat resiliency (the time integrated ratio of the capability provided divided by the minimum needed capability)
- Expected availability of required capability (the likelihood that for a given adverse environment the required capability level will be available)
- Resilience levels (the ability to provide required capability in a hierarchy of increasingly difficult adversity)
- Cost to the opponent
- Cost-benefit to the opponent
- Resource resiliency (the degradation of capability that occurs as successive contributing assets are lost)
Brtis found that multiple metrics may be required, depending on the situation. However, if one had to select a single most effective metric for reflecting the meaning of resilience, it would be the expected availability of the required capability. Expected availability of the required capability is the probability-weighted sum of the availability summed across the scenarios under consideration. In its most basic form, this metric can be represented mathematically as:
R = Resilience of the required capability (Cr);
n = the number of exhaustive and mutually exclusive adversity scenarios within a context (n can equal 1);
Pi = the probability of adversity scenario I;
Cr(t)_i = timewise availability of the required capability during scenario I; --- 0 if below the required level --- 1 if at or above the required value (Where circumstances dictate this may take on a more complex, non-binary function of time.);
T = length of the time of interest.
The state-transition model described by Jackson et al (2015) describes a system in its various states before, during, and after an encounter with a threat. The model identifies seven different states as the system passes from a nominal operational state to minimally acceptable functional state. In addition, the model identifies 28 transition paths from state to state. To accomplish each transition the designer must invoke one or more of the 34 principles or support principles described by Jackson and Ferris (2013). The designs implied by these principles can then be entered into a simulation to determine the total effectiveness of each design.
No tools dedicated to resilience have been identified.

Abigail had heard rumours of "Harold Saxon, his disciples, his return". Her father said that she enjoyed such things. Abigail was vain and narcissistic. On Christmas 2009, her father used the Immortality Gate in an attempt to give her the immortality she wanted. After repairing it, the Master entered the gate and she was turned into a copy of him, along with the entire human race except for Wilfred Mott and Donna Noble. After being returned to normal, she was arrested for "crimes undisclosed". (TV: The End of Time).
Behind the scenes Edit
- Abigail claims that her name means "Bringer of joy" when in fact Abigail means "Father's joy".

text: Steelmaking giant ArcelorMittal said on Thursday that it would shut down six cold-processing facilities in the Liege region of eastern Belgium in a decision that will affect 1,300 jobs, owing to worsening conditions on the European steel market. The steel group said that it realised that this would cause serious difficulties for staff and for the region and undertook to seek a socially acceptable solution for those affected. In Davos, Switzerland, Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo said that he would tell the head of ArcelorMittal, Lakshmi Mittal, of the \"incomprehension\" of Belgian authorities about the decision. \"I support the workers. That is the first message this afternoon when I meet Lakshmi Mittal,\" he said on his Twitter social network account from Davos where he is attending the World Economic Forum.

Share another experience before you go.Great place to grab a few drinks. Very authentic feeling and great place to get the full Union Square experience. The food is just decent- but fine for apps and a quick fix with drinks.
We picked The Independent after walking by earlier in the day and being impressed with the modern pub look, alas the look was the best part. The menu had the usual burgers, fish & chips and salmon - we chose the fish & chips, a Bluefish pate and French Onion soup. The appetisers were fine but the fish & chips... More
We were there about 3pm on a Sunday and they were only serving brunch. That is a very late brunch. They did have 1-2 lunch items on the brunch menu though. Waiter was attentive and friendly. Food was okay. It came out cold so it may have been better warm.
We were visiting the Cambridge area and strolling around when we spotted the farmers market going on in the parking lot. After having a walk through there we discovered this restaurant and decided to give it a try. The food and atmosphere were really great! The staff were super friendly and it was quite the happening place on a Saturday... More
Ran out to dinner late on Saturday night, food was fine, drinks were ok, loved the outdoor seating. Wasn't real busy so not sure if it's the "place to be" or not.
The Independent is one of the better sit-down restaurants in Union Square. I'm yet to try anything from their menu I did not like, they have a great alcohol selection, and their trivia nights are small but very fun. A comfortable spot for lunch, dinner, or a couple of drinks with trivia.
Sandwiches are good, also the pasta, beer was great and the service was nice and proactive. There is a TV in the space.
Visited this place by coincidence as we were on our way to prospect hill. Service was great. We were in love with their croque Monsieur.
The service is friendly and normally fast. The food is average and too expensive for what they offer, but if you want to eat at a nice table indoors, it is a good ambient and ok to bring children.
We invited friends and family to a book signing event at The Independent. Despite all of the mayhem we created, the Independent staff was attentive, friendly and enthusiastic. Never a grouchy look - and I'm sure we drove them crazy. Our numerous orders for numerous appetizers were always served promptly.

There was still a lot of snow in the high country.
Moon rise over Half Dome Mountain from the Merced river valley.
We got to play with a 400 mm, f 2.8 lens on loan from a camera store. It worked great for high mag shots of the granite and snow, but my arms are still sore from carrying it, and holding it up ~ 20 pounds!!
Awesome shadows and colors in the granite walls of Yosemite canyon, the Dancing Devil of Half Dome is in the center between the tree shadows.
Here is a picture from the same location using a wide angle lens.
Same location again, shot with a 135 mm f 1.2 lens -- Half Dome caught just before sunset when the shadows and colors were at their best.
The next day we drove up to the North entrance of Yosemite and stopped to get this picture showing how low the reservoirs are getting in the west.
A patriotic old tractor on the way from Greely Hill to Yosemite.
Half Dome Mountain and the start of Yosemite Valley.
Bridal Veil falls was flowing pretty good for this time of year.
Looking back up at Half Dome on our way out of the valley to the south entrance of Yosemite Park. The mountains are always better with snow!
Early sunset looking west towards the central valley of California -- still a lot of hills to cross before we get home.

This article is an examination of the 'minor' dialogues of Lucian of Samosata, namely the Dialogues of the Sea Gods, the Dialogues of the Gods, the Dialogues of the Dead and the Dialogues of the Courtesans. Previous commentators have attempted to display either no relationship between these works at all or to over-interpret these relationships so as to show some order in which they were composed. The article shows that while the final point is not attainable, there are nevertheless common features between the groups of dialogues which can be usefully considered from an analytical viewpoint, giving insights into the influences that Lucian has drawn upon in their composition.

text: Though carbon capture and storage (CCS) gains its momentum in China in context of the energy-mix that features heavy reliance on coal, it is currently obscure and full of uncertainty, of which a primary concern goes to the cost viability of CCS. However, previous technical-economic studies mainly take a static perspective to look into the cost of carbon capture systems, without fair consideration of the potential future cost slide brought by continuous expansion of CCS technologies and technical improvement. In recognition of this, a dynamic cost analysis is undertaken in our work by applying learning curve to exploring CCS prospect in China, together with a detailed review of domestic CCS progress. An oxyfuel power plant retrofitted from a typical traditional 2×600 MW power plant in China is chosen as a case study. The result suggests that the unit capital cost for the oxyfuel combustion plant will fall from 4926.30 RMB¥/kW to around 2977.02–3981.20 RMB¥/kW and the cost of electricity is supposed to drop drastically from the initial level 459.70 RMB¥/MWh to around 342.29–399.37 RMB¥/MWh when the aggregated capacity reaches 100 GW. The sharp decline forecasts that in the long term CCS technology could be a cost-effective option to be deployed together with other clean energy options. In addition, compared with IGCC and post-combustion systems with carbon capture, the oxyfuel combustion technology is illustrated quite competent in the long-term deployment.

The wreck occurred after Patrick had completed about 35 laps about 30 minutes into the 90-minute practice session on the 0.526-mile track. The damage to the rear of her car was too much for the team to repair.
The Stewart-Haas Racing team scrambled to get the backup car set up for Patrick to practice before qualifying Friday afternoon for the Goody's Headache Fast Relief 500. Patrick returned to the track in a backup car with about 15 minutes remaining in practice. Because she went to a backup car prior to qualifying, Patrick will start where she qualifies and will not have to go to the rear of the field.
A few minutes later, Patrick's boyfriend, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., also lost control of his car and slapped the wall at Martinsville.

Track List
Album Notes
Personnel: Danny James (vocals, keyboards); Michael Louis (vocals, guitar, keyboards, drums, percussion); Joel Robinow (guitar, trumpet, background vocals).
Photographer: Ori Korn.
Arranger: Michael Louis.
Best-known for his stint with the Northern California garage punk band the Cuts, Danny James likes to describe his own music as "Larry Graham and Queen on the floor with the Raspberries," and in many respects that just scratches the surface of the eclectic range of sounds and influences on James' first solo album, Pear. James writes songs full of pop hooks and rock & roll muscle, reinforced with tough but funky rhythms that reflect a taste for hip-hop and electronics as well as R&B and funk, and it's all performed in full '70s style, complete with stacked harmonies, shimmering synthesizer lines, and epic-scale guitars. Is this pop with muscles, or hard rock with polish and panache? Pear manages to deliver plenty of both, and a lot more besides. ~ Mark Deming
