Three stories this week popped out at me in the Disaster Resource Continuity e-GUIDE weekly email:

First, a company in Newark, CA (Risk Management System) has come up with a new earthquake simulation that is radically changing damage estimates for California and other prone areas (including the northwest). LA Bizjournal covered the story. This could affect insurance rates.

Captain Kim Buike has put together another great video using Depiction. This time, he's tackling a hypothetical security plan for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

Yesterday we did a test of Live Reports and Send as email in preparation of Kim's webinar on sharing situational awareness. We wanted to test Microsoft's Exchange Server's ability to handle lots of Depictions concurrently reading the same email account for Live Reports. The results were better than expected.
