...One example in the article of professionalism was the incident in 2005. The incident involved three security officers hired by an apartment complex in Boston. A man was followed into his home after refusing to show identification to the officers and beaten in front of his wife and children. The security officers should have talked to the gentleman and the family about the incident instead of using force that was unnecessary. The same company was involved in another incident in which an unspecified number of young men were arrested for trespassing. The young men were residents of the apartment building in which they were accused of trespassing. Both incidents showed poor examples of professionalism on the part of the officers. The examples of officers showing proper professionalism revolve around the private security officers working with police. They maintain the same level of professionalism as the officers at all times. This is due mostly to the fact that a percentage of them are current or retired law enforcement officers. A negative image can hurt the credentials of a security company. Take the incident from 2005 in the article. If a community hears about and sees incidents like this happening, it will be ore in fear than ever before. A level of trust must exist with private security as it does with law enforcement. If a community does not have the trust in security officers, then the officers are rendered as useless by the community. The private security sector is a business...

...Lisa Bryant CJS/250 Check Point Week One: Historical Laws and Security Jenelle Velarde May 7, 2014 When it comes to historical laws and security, I have found that we tend to have the same kind of laws that they did back in time. However they also maybe revised to meet today’s society. We will be talking about six different historical laws which are The Code of Hammurabi, Draco’s Law, and Law of the Twelve Tables, Justinian Code, Magna Carta, and Statute of Westminster. The Law Code of Hammurabi (1750 B.C.) created by King Hammurabi, which was discovered in 1901. Also the quote “an eye for an eye” symbolizes the Hammurabi code. Which consist with the crimes that we have that gets disobeyed such as: slavery, marriage, theft, debts and commerce. Second law that I would like to tell a little about would be Draco’s law. Draco’s Law (621 B.C.) was named by the Greek citizen who they chosen to write the laws for Athens. Which consist of the death penalty, when someone has stolen anything from someone or murder someone Draco’s Law was given. Law of the twelve tables (450 B.C.) includes ten laws, then two more added later on. Law of the twelve tables came from ten men that were from Roman was given the power to write the laws. Which help form public and private laws foundation? Along helping to organize the prosecution where the victims could seek justice on whatever the person on trial done to them. However the law didn’t allow interclass marriages, severe...

Many people do not consider what can happen if security is not adequate, or if countermeasures to possible problems are not in place. Above, I have outlined my floor plan, and now I will explain the positive aspects of my personal plan. Our first discussion points are: Possible threats: [pic] Fires [pic] Theft or fraud [pic] Bombings or bomb threats [pic] Information theft/hacking [pic] Burglary or armed robbery [pic] Kidnapping and Ransom Risk Assessment: Fires: Is is important that flammable things are always labeled and in the right place, and that no walkways are blocked. A store's chemicals are sometimes fire hazards, so ensuring that they are always in the right place limits the danger of fire. Theft or Fraud: Papers or documents can be used by unauthorized people. Documents that have important information should not be left lying around – these could be used for fraudulent purposes, or they might have computer access codes on them. Information theft/hacking: All computer networks need to be updated with security protocols –...

...Code of Hammurabi: The whole purpose of the Code of Hammurabi was to improve the harmony that the people within the Babylon era had with one another. At this point in time, people were migrating to larger cities and Hammurabi suggested that these people were to be accepted and if anyone were to disregard the code, they would be dealt with accordingly with severe punishments including death. Draco’s Law: Draco created a law which more or less followed the guidelines of democracy. Under Draco’s law, the King had limited powers and could not pass additional laws as he saw fit. Instead the laws would have to be presented before a chosen body of governing officials for evaluation and they would decide from there if the laws were justified. Also a lot of the guidelines within the law were direction proportional to the code that Hammurabi had set forth. Law of the Twelve Tables: “Lex Duodecim Tabularum” (Latin) was the basis for Roman law and the Roman Constitution. The law primarily dealt with the general public or Rome. People were tied together in ethical bounds and they were granted several rights in regards to property and economic rights, similar to the foundation of the United States Constitution. Justinian Code: The Justinian Code was another form of guidance which was intended to be an addition to the Roman Constitution and codes that had been set forth in previous eras. Justinian I had made this addition primarily to deal with a larger, more circuitous population since...

...Jeep, people would not continue to purchase them. Jeeps have been the backbone of America since they were first made. Jeeps have evolved in so many ways from the past to the present and are continuing to evolve into the future. The Cj’s series started back in the 40s, but the one Jeep covered in this paper will be the Cj-7. The Cj-7 came about in 1976 and roughly 379,000 were produced. This was the start of the Jeep that the public could actually use because it had better drivability and more space. The Cj-7 was just like the Cj-5 except the Cj-7 was extended to give more space. The drivability was improved by the addition of anti-swat bars. Another addition to the Cj-7 was a steering stabilizer allowing the Jeep to have a less probability to go into the death wobble. The death wobble is where the front tires whip back and forth making the driver lose control. Another option was the Quadra-Trac, which was an automatic four-wheel drive system. With this type of four-wheel drive system, it allowed for an automatic transmission. This was another way the Cj-7 was made to be more of a civilian vehicle. There were many different types of packages that the Cj-7 came in. The 3 packages were the Renegade, Laredo, and Golden Eagle. The packages included different options including chrome packages, different four-wheel drive systems, and different engines. There were even options of locking differentials and a winch. The engines offered was the 232 inline six and the 304 V8...

...Marie Foraker Best Vehicle for surviving a zombie crisis Jeanette Burghardt September 21, 2012 The Jeep Wrangler is the best vehicle for surviving a zombie attack because the Wrangler can go off road and the vehicle is small. The Jeep Wrangler is easy for zombie swerving and getting around cars on the roads. The Jeep Wrangler is also cheap, fun to drive and go-anywhere capability. This vehicle would be the perfect car for a zombie crisis. The Jeep Wrangler is the best car because this vehicle can go off road. Which means that this car can go through forest, rocks, snow mountains, mud and fields. Having this advantage makes it easy so to zombie swerving on the roads. The jeep Wrangler can go 70 to 75 miles per hour on the road but the disadvantage to this vehicle is taking this car off the road can only do a speed of 40 to 45 miles per hour.

...Well here is the story of a few jeeps... In the short time between school, homework, and Target, my free time is most enjoyed off-road in my Jeep. Chandler, Clayton, and the bass pond will keep me occupied for years to come. As long as I have a Jeep I will continue my quest to explore more trails such as The Rubicon, or Moab. The first Jeep I purchased was a 1986 Cherokee Laredo. At the time the four-wheel drive didn’t work and I didn’t care much. Weeks later I could be found cutting through the occasional field or going through a little mud. I soon learned the need for four wheel drive after a few scary situations last summer. It was about 1 A.M. and I was driving in a ditch with slippery grass from morning dew. In the ditch there was a tall grassy hill that I was thinking about driving up. With a little encouragement from my friend, I charged up the hill and as I reached the crest, my tires started slipping, as did obscenities. We slowly descended backwards down the hill, because the brakes weren’t doing their job. The pace picked up, and fear and uncertainty were riding shotgun as we turned 90 degrees on the hill. I thought a roll was inevitable as we were sliding sideways, so I hit the throttle and we slid around and then the Jeep were facing the bottom of the hill. A few weeks later I got the four wheel drive working, and since then I’ve put my passengers through more fear and fun. Ignorance and adrenalin had got me high centered in the cold raining boonies, up to my...
