...It is unlikely that politicians would willingly transition out of super-max. Prisoners' rights are never a high priority for obvious reasons. Supporting less secure prisons would be viewed as being weak on crime, especially when considering the notoriety of some of these prisoners. For example, dozens of domestic and foreign terrorists call Florence federal super-max home, like the Boston Marathon bomber, Unabomber, Ramzi Yousef, and Zacharias Moussaoui. No politician wants to put his face anywhere near expanding the rights and protections for people like that. In addition, the politicians' hesitancy would be fully backed by public opinion, which generally favors better security over prisoners' rights. This is part of the reason why closing Guantanamo Bay...

Hershberger, and author Rodney J. Henningsen both shared their opinion on why super-max prison are needed and reasons why they are not needed.

...Alcatraz Alcatraz was one of the best super max prisons that there ever was. It’s one of the prisons that are almost impossible to escape from but people did it. Some say they got washed away from the water. And some say they made it to land and hid so they wouldn't have to go back to prison. One of the worst inmates was named Frank morris and he was also one of the first people to be sent to Alcatraz. June 1962 was when one of the worst escapes happened and it was by Frank morris. All of the guards made a vote to have James A as the warden of the prizon so he would be incharge of every thing. Johnston of San Francisco to be the first warden of Alcatraz. Johnston, by reputation a tough disciplinarian, had already made a name for himself by...

...I spy The story is about a twelve year old boy, Charlie Stowe who wants to smoke a cigarette because some boys at school tease him with never having smoked a cigarette. His father owns a tobacconist store underneath the house. In that store, there is cigarettes. He sneaks into the shop to steal some cigarettes, but he hides because his father and some men are at the shop. The father offers the men cigarettes but they do not want them, because they are on duty. As the father and the men go out Charlie sneaks into his room and falls asleep. The story is properly very old and it take place in England and more precisely in an irregular house close to the sea. I can see that because Woodbine and Gold Flake are very old cigarette packs, which was very popular in England back then. Moreover, I can see that the story takes place close to the sea because he mentions the wind blew from the sea (page 1 line 4). I cannot exactly come up with a date, but it could be in the First or Second World War. I can see that when the main character uses words as “Huns” and “Zeppelins.” Huns was an old word for a German soldier and it was mostly used as slang. Zeppelins was a German airship. I think Charlie and his family live in a rich environment. I can see that because his father has a store. They have a house and Charlie goes in a county school. Charlie is twelve years old.

...Consumer Behavior Paper and Questionnaire Constance Ordish MKT/554 May 7, 2012 Ruby A Rouse, PhD Consumer Behavior Paper and Questionnaire Most of the negative publicity found on the Internet about flavored cigarettes centers on the marketing of the cigarettes and not the product itself. Among smokers between ages 18 to 25 the cigarettes are met with warm welcome. Smokers welcome the change from normal cigarettes and like more flavor options to choose from. The previous methods of marketing flavored cigarettes are under fire. It is commonly believed that the tobacco companies are targeting children and teenagers to hook these customers at a tender age to create lifelong consumers. “Collier County Health Department says it’s a shameless ploy that’s gaining steam. “They know that children are attracted to sweet products, and if they get them hooked on the sweet products then they have a lifetime user,” Rachel Kleist of the Collier County Health Department….According to a 2010 statewide survey, the candy-flavored tobacco trend is catching on. 17.6% of Collier County youth between the ages of 11 and 17 have tried it and 19.9% in Lee County.” ("Cigarette Flavours", 2012). To counter the previous reputation of flavored cigarette marketing to children, Exotic Smokes will make every effort to develop a marketing campaign directed to smokers within its targeted consumer group and not any younger than 18. The ads will be presented only in magazines generally read by the target...

...Memorandum To: Stephanie Nissen From: Nichole Dennis Date: 11/16/13 Re: Bureaucracy Memo INTRODUCTION In 1992, Kristin Lardner was murdered by a man who should have been in prison. Kristin was a creative and intelligent art student from D.C., living in Boston. She began dating Michael Cartier a few months before he took her life. Michael was already on probation for numerous violent acts. Acts against other people and property. WEBER’S CONCEPT OF BUREAUCRACY Max Weber’s Concept of Bureaucracy consists of three basic theories. They are: Specialization of Labor, Hierarchical Order and Impersonal Rules. "The principle of office hierarchy and of levels of graded authority mean a firmly ordered system of super-and subordination in which there is a supervision of the lower offices by the higher ones (Stillman, 54). The concept of Hierarchical Order is directly related to this case study. Hierarchical Order basically means that everyone in a bureaucratic system has someone to answer to within the government. Because we have these checks and balances system, the government is supposed to run smoothly and properly. HOW THE HIERARCHICAL ORDER FAILED KRISTIN The following are a few examples of how the Hierarchical Order failed to protect Kristin: In 1988, Cartier was arrested and sentenced to six months in jail, non of which he served. In 1990, Cartier was arrested on multiple charges such as destruction of property and animal cruelty. Between December...

...How a PR company managed a celebrity’s image * Nigella Lawson- Mark Hutchinson Management has managed Nigella Lawson’s PR since the publication of her groundbreaking cookbook How To Eat in 1998. Since then he has managed publicity for all Nigella’s projects including television series and product launches in the UK and worldwide. Nigella Lawson looks very feminine due to her curves and her whole physique. She conforms to the male gaze, as she is very feminine. She is shown to be classy and very lady like; this would attract the male audience’s attention. Nigella Lawson comes across as the stereotypical women to have, as she is presented to be perfect. From the dog days of late 2013, which saw her accused of being ‘off her head’ on coke by ex-husband Charles Saatchi, and her private life dissected in court at the trial of her two former assistants after they were found not guilty of a £685,000 fraud on the accounts of her and her former husband. She chose to admit taking cocaine on seven occasions as she gave evidence against Elisabetta and Francesca Grillo, who had been accused of spending lavishly on family credit cards without the permission of her or her husband of 10 years Charles Saatchi. The jury of seven men and five women handed down the not guilty verdict after eight hours and 52 minutes of deliberation. The jury had heard claims from the Grillo sisters that the use of cocaine and cannabis was rife in the Lawson home as part of a defense aimed at showing a household...

...------------------------------------------------- Demands of the question Byoutline it means we have to state and clearly explain the characteristics of bureaucracy and then on part b of the question we have to highlight and intensely discuss the Marxist perspective on bureaucratic organisations that patently criticise Weber`s ideal type as the best organisational form. The chief advocate of bureaucracy, weber (1947) simply defined bureaucracy as an organization characterized by hierarchy of full time paid officials. Moyo (1992) also defined t as a formal arrangement of functions, duties and technical competence while Schaefer (2006) referred to bureaucracy as a component of formal organization that uses rules and hierarchical ranking to achieve efficiency and lastly Ritzer (2015) defined it as a highly rational organisation, especially one that is highly efficiency. Thereby it is the essence of this presentation to outline and explain the characteristics of bureaucracy which are as follows Division of labour Schaefer (2006:136) defined division of labour as the fragmentation of work into smaller and smaller tasks i.e specialised experts perform specific tasks. Dzimbiri (2015:7) also defined as a feature which suggest that each person do some part of an overall job to allow for perfection and therefore efficiency. Through specific tasks people are more likely to become highly skilled and carry out a job with maximum efficiency hence focusing on what one is well qualified...
