As the MSNBC journalists work to file their next story, the team is approached by a lobbyist hoping to add spin to the story. Cadets represented various print and television media to cover the issue of immigration reform in Congress. The Congressional Simulation Exercise was designed to give about 120 West Point cadets in the SS202 and SS252 (American Politics) courses a hands-on, real-world simulation of government in action. Participants absorbed the role of legislators, journalist, lobbyists and presidential advisers in a daylong capstone exercise to see who could use political capital to create the best outcome for their group.

This exercise was "Your talisman". I don't really have anything I wear that I consider to be lucky or whatever, but I have kept this little frog in every purse I've ever had; it's been so long I can't even really remember why ;)
Captain Veidenbaums from the Latvian National Armed Forces, passes on information from the Joint Logistic Support Group based at Okehampton on Exercise Steadfast Juncture. Members of the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC), and various other elements of NATO forces came together for Exercise Steadfast Juncture to certify that the ARRC is capable and ready to assume command of the NATO Response Force (NRF) mission throughout 2013. Taking command of the NRF means that the ARRC will be rapidly deployable and could deploy worldwide is support of combat or humanitarian relief efforts.

THE biggest live exercise of its kind ever held in Greater Manchester – Exercise Triton II – came to an end this morning (Friday, July 16, 2016) after months of intense planning.
Around 36 organisations across the region and nationally have been taking part in this major emergency planning exercise which saw dozens of emergency vehicles at sites across Greater Manchester and Chinook helicopters flying across the skies.
The complex scenario used was designed to test how local authorities, emergency services and other partners are equipped to tackle a major emergency working together.
Participating ‘players’ also included the military, government, health and utility companies, as well as voluntary agencies.
The exercise started on Monday, July 11, 2016, with ‘warnings’ from the Met Office regarding adverse weather and from the Environment Agency about the growing risk of regional flooding.
The emergency services, including Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), and partners put procedures in place to ensure that where possible properties and critical infrastructure were protected and the public were warned. This theme was carried on through Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13, 2016.
To ensure that both players and plans were tested to their full, a dramatic scenario developed on Thursday, July 14, whereby the bank on the Dove Stone Reservoir in Oldham was breached and water cascaded through a number of boroughs within Greater Manchester.
This meant that evacuation procedures had to be put in place and rest centres set up. Later in the day, a coach ploughed into the River Tame in a mock crash and a full-scale search and rescue operation was carried out.
Paul Argyle, GMFRS’ Deputy County Fire Officer and Chair of Greater Manchester Resilience Forum, said: “Exercise Triton II was a hugely complex emergency planning exercise and I would like to thank all of the agencies that have taken part this week.
"This was a very detailed scenario which had impacts across every part of the region and necessitated a full range of partners taking part.
"The scale of the destruction and chaos in the exercise was deliberately designed to test the region at full stretch.
"We have to do this to ensure we are well prepared to deal with any future real-life event or disaster that might occur – and it is also invaluable that those taking part got the chance to practise essential response skills that would be used during a major incident like this.
"I would particularly like to thank all the volunteers who took part in this exercise. The patience and understanding of local residents and communities on Thursday (as response plans went into effect at 'live' sites) was also greatly appreciated.
“All players have now been 'stood down'. Our next task is to evaluate how the exercise went, step by step. We will want to find out what worked well and crucially to identify and learn any lessons that could help us in the future in real-life situations. I would like to point out that incidents as extreme as this are highly unlikely, but ensuring we practice our response means that we are ready to respond to a variety of scenarios."

GRAND BARA DESERT, Djibouti (September 25, 2012) – U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer Enrickie Jackson, an exercise participant, calls the Combined Joint Task Force - Horn of Africa, or CJTF-HOA, Joint Operations Center to inform them of an exercise emergency after an accident occurred during Mass Casualty Exercise 12-1 which started in the Grand Bara Desert, Djibouti, September 25, 2012. The exercise followed a fictitious storyline, but called for the employment of real-world assets. While French and U.S. forces conduct frequent combined training events, this was the first exercise of this type between the two nations in Djibouti. The U.S. forces involved are assigned to CJTF-HOA. CJTF-HOA works with coalition partners, such as the French, and with countries in East Africa to promote regional security and stability.

I decided that I needed to get in better shape - too much pasta has my belly growing. So I decided to try Rushfit. The first workout had me feeling light headed and close to fainting but I made it through. We will see how the next 60 days progress. Hopefully I don't get injured.

On July 9, the Africa Center for Strategic Studies hosted 25 Young African Leadership Initiative (YALI) Washington Mandela fellows at the National Defense University for a one-day simulation exercise focused on resolving some of Africa’s most pressing security issues.
Each of the 14 women and 11 men was assigned to represent either a regional economic community, a continental body, or an international organization and explore ways to address a worsening political, security, and humanitarian crisis in a fictitious African region. Their deliberations and recommendations on the simulated scenario focused on the need to involve various stakeholders, manage diverse interests, consider short- and medium-term responses, and promote the use of dialogue to bridge differences. Ensuing discussions with Africa Center faculty and staff highlighted ongoing policy and academic debates on choosing peace versus justice, the timing of civil war settlements, the challenges posed by financial constraints, and the limitations of international community’s capacity to respond to conflict.
The fellows—representing 21 African countries—were hosted by Rutgers University during their six-week stay in the United States. The Africa Center has hosted the YALI fellows each year since 2015. NDU’s Center for Applied Strategic Learning assisted in developing the simulation.
