...Sousa received a telegram. The telegram from Washington D.C. was inviting Sousa to become the 17th conductor of the U.S. Marine Band. Sousa accepted the offer and began work in Washington D.C. on October 1, 1880. Under Sousa, the band underwent many changes such as drastic changes to the style of the music performed, with a shift toward more symphonic pieces. To fit the demands of the new music, Sousa altered the instrument line-up such as his 1890s addition of the Sousaphone with the help of J.W. Pepper. Furthermore, rehearsals become intensely strict.

...reason is because taxpayers can only afford to hire so many police.

The professionalism and appearance of safety such as gated neighborhoods supply is incredibly alluring. This nevertheless, may not be the appropriate opportunity to take in order to offer sound safety within and around a residence or society. Private security affiliates should preserve an elevated point of professionalism although they do not have as much authority or control as that of the local law enforcement. It is vital that private security experts behave just as professional as the local police officials since they are behaving as a foundation of fortification for persons or populations. They should be analyzed as severe and proficient in protecting by any means. An additional rationale as to why private security officials should behave in a professional manner is because if they are not behaving properly then they will establish a bad name for themselves and for local law enforcement.

...very secured environment in which changes in behaviour can be facilitated. However, this is not always the case. Many obstacles have crept into the wheel of progress thereby making socialization to be impeded. In this paper, examination malpractice is looked at as a major social problem which constitutes an obstacle to progress in socialization in school environment. When examinations are set, rules or a code of conduct which candidates must adhere to while participating in that examination are provided for. Principally, a candidate is not allowed to engage in any activity that will make the essence of the evaluation to be defeated. He/she is not allowed to take any material considered to be of advantage to him/her into the examination hall. He/she will also not solicit for any form of information from a colleague. Now a breach of any of the rules constitutes examination malpractice, or in other words, flouting the rules that govern the proper administration of an examination tantamount to examination malpractice. Despite their important role within the educational system, examinations have...

...The United States has a democratic government which is governed by laws that are introduced by public officials. The United States has a legal system that has three branches to have a division between federal and state law. The three branches of government are legislative, executive, and judiciary which all play a role in the legal system and the creation of laws. The branches of government were put into place to create a system of checks and balances. The branches work together because no single branch of government can act freely based on its own will. The laws and practices of the United States were created based on the foundations of English common law. Also there are many factors that lawmakers must consider and acknowledge before writing laws to be reviewed and executed. The legislative branch was established by Article I of the constitution and consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate. The constitution gives this branch the authority to pass legislation and send it to the President to be signed, the bill must pass in the Senate and the House with majority vote. Although, the President can veto the bill it can be overridden by passing the bill again through the House and the Senate with at least a two thirds majority vote in favor. The executive branch includes the President of the United States who acts as the head of state and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. The executive branch is the branch of government that governs the law enforcement...

Individual liberties and rights are the characteristics which identify America among the rest of the world. In addition, the rights and freedoms of the countries residents is equally if not more important. The legal system of the United States is based on an adversarial; meaning that event through legal prosecution, the individual rights of the defendant is still protected by the system. Due Process is a concept which applies to both the accused and the party which is against the accused. The adversarial system states that the battle throughout the case between the state and the defense, the truth will ultimately prevail and justice will be served. Although the result of the case will remain lawful, it’s important for the competition between the two parties to remain lawful as well. Furthermore, it’s very important for the constitutional rights of the defendant to remain intact throughout the entire criminal procedure process. Due Process and the Rights of the Accused: The Criminal Procedure Process There must be an individual who has sufficient evidence to present in court which establishes a crime was committed by the defendant, is in progress, or will take place before entering the criminal justice system. Without probable cause an arrest cannot be made, and crimes would go unsolved...

...Joseph Ormsbee Professor Marciano English December 6, 2012 The City That Never Sleeps Everyone that’s anyone has always dreamt about going to New York City. People go to New York for all different reasons; whether it’s for a tourist attraction, a show, a business trip, or just simply for the amazing sights there are to see. The city offers something unique for everyone. Many well known people have used the connections New York City has to offer to reach their goals. “The Big Apple”, otherwise known as the city that never sleeps, is a place where all dreams are attainable. People from all ages go to New York for all it has to offer. A few of my favorite places to visit in the city are the Statue of Liberty, Radio City Music Hall, Central park, and finally my all-time favorite, Times Square. If it were not for these historical places, New York City wouldn’t be the place it is today. The first stop is well known everywhere, and has been standing for over a hundred and twenty five years. It is also the most meaningful figurine in the city, the Statue of Liberty. Throughout the entire city the statue represents new beginnings and independence. The statue was built in September of 1875 and was given as a gift from France representing peace. It honors the friendship and the commitment to liberty between France and the United States of America. There is a very special quote on the statue that reads: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe...

...Preventing Crime Crime Prevention and safety is always an issue when it comes to a community. It’s something that individual learn from observing others, reading, and learning from mistakes of others are some of the reasons we post and talk about near misses and direct hits that each of use have encountered (Safety Toolbox Talks, n.d). There are several ways to plan for crime prevention, but the best way is by the community being the eyes and ears of law enforcement. Crime prevention uses many different programs and strategies to foresee, distinguish, consider and tackle misdeeds and the variables which play a role in crime (Bureau of Justice Assistance, (n.d.). There are different target levels of crime prevention including families, communities, individuals, and certain locations. Individual level of crime prevention usually deals with preventing persons from ever committing crimes. It’s more as an avoidance tactic. Community crime prevention usually deals with changes in how a community functions and what they are doing to prevent crime. In order to maintain public safety and low-crime rates, Detroit is eager to get the community involved through community-based programs. Neighborhood Watches are the best way to prevent crime. A neighborhood watch program creates a renowned system of communication connecting law enforcement and neighborhoods concerning crime related predicaments (The City of Detroit, n.d.). Over the last several decades, the neighborhood watch has...

Bullying may include physical bullying by hitting or punching a person, verbal by calling names and teasing, and or cyber-bullying by sending negative emails or text.-mail or text messaging). The most frequent for of bullying is verbal bullying. In 2002, only nine states had bullying laws. Today all states except the state of Montana have laws in place. The laws require each state to implement programs to educate all grades that discourse bullying and acts of violence against other students. On January 1, 2011, the state of Georgia changed the bullying laws and now requires the Department of Education to develop a model policy that allows changes to the policy when necessary. The laws also require the Department of Education to post the policy on its website to gives assistance to the local school systems. Some of the rules the model policy list are, a statement that prohibits bullying, requires a teacher or a person that suspects someone is a victim of bullying it must be reported to the principal (Bully Police, n.d). Police may not have to be involved in all bullying cases because not bullying acts are not crimes. Although parents and teachers can deal with most cases of bullying, some cases require notifying the police. Usually the last resort is to notify the police if the incident is serious. Serious attacks are violent attacks, assaults,...

...1. Stereotypes, narratives, ideologies and discourses are devices that, in different ways according to different theorists, fortify media power. Critically analyse how these devices work, according to various theorists, and reflect upon which best explains communicative power. The social construction of reality is mediated through the communicative powers of stereotypes, narratives, ideologies and discourses and the media is extremely powerful in communicating messages with these devices. It will be argued that discourses are the most powerful communicating device used by the media in the postindustrial era today. Furthermore as per Croteau & Hoynes (2014, p. 9), the analysis will focus on recognised mass media that is readily available in print, film, radio, television, sound recordings and the Internet. Poststructuralists within sociology examine the structures of society and human agency. Human agency or action is influenced by sociocultural factors such as ideology that shape human identity and act subconsciously over an individual. Ideology is the system of meaning that helps explain, define and make value judgments about the world (Croteau & Hoynes 2014, p. 152). As we live in an interconnected world there are many ideologies as there are social structures in any given society. Related to this is that dominant ideas are hegemonic. Marx created the superstructure, which is the domain of ideas for example religion, legal structures, family, institutions...

...New York City The first native New Yorkers were the Lenape, an Algonquin people who hunted, fished and farmed in the area between the Delaware and Hudson rivers. Europeans began to explore the region at the beginning of the 16th century--among the first was Giovanni da Verrazzano, an Italian who sailed up and down the Atlantic coast in search of a route to Asia--but none settled there until 1624. That year, the Dutch West India Company sent some 30 families to live and work in a tiny settlement on “Nutten Island” (today’s Governors Island) that they called New Amsterdam. In 1626, the settlement’s governor general, Peter Minuit, purchased the much larger Manhattan Island from the natives for 60 guilders in trade goods such as tools, farming equipment, cloth and wampum (shell beads). Fewer than 300 people lived in New Amsterdam when the settlement moved to Manhattan. But it grew quickly, and in 1760 the city (now called New York City; population 18,000) surpassed Boston to become the second-largest city in the American colonies. Fifty years later, with a population 202,589, it became the largest city in the Western hemisphere. Today, more than 8 million people live in the city’s five boroughs. New York City in the 18th Century In 1664, the British seized New Amsterdam from the Dutch and gave it a new name: New York City. For the next century, the population of New York City grew larger and more diverse: It included immigrants from the Netherlands, England, France and Germany;...

...to abridge those rights to protect its own interests and citizens interests. The most controversial argument in our society today concerning prisons is that of private versus state. “A private prison is defined as a correctional institute operated by a private firm on behalf of a local or state government” (Pearson-Prentice Hall, 2009). One advantage for privatization of prisons is private companies offer correctional facility designs are efficient to operate and are based on cost-benefit considerations. Also private prisons can mobilize quickly and specialize in facility missions. Private prisons helps the government reduce its liability exposure by contracting with private correctional companies. A disadvantage of privatization of prisons is that some private operators may be inexperienced and this could cause a problem within the management of the prison. Also the procurement process of having a private prison is slow, inefficient and this could open many risks within the prison. Another disadvantage of having a private prison is that over time, government may lose the capability to perform the functions of a corrections facility (Pearson-Prentice Hall, 2009). Moreover private prisons can be managed any different way possible and is up to the individuals managing the prison on whether or not the prison will be...
