Maze In Corrections

This video depicts several things. First of all it shows exactly how outnumbered we are within our correctional facilities. Even before the overcrowding and high incarceration rates, correctional officers are and will always be outnumbered. Any given day, any given inmate may try and attack you or someone else. We put some of the most violent of offenders in isolated environments, away from privacy and things they want or need, emotions and tempers will flair.

Following the change in prison leadership in the mid-1970s, the prison experienced a shortage of trained correctional staff. A subsequent investigation by the state attorney general's office found that prison officials began coercing prisoners to become informants in a strategy known as "the snitch game". The state's report said that retribution for snitching led to an increased incidence of violence at the prison in the late 1970s. By the end of 1978, this clique of administrators were left to do whatever they wanted to the prison which caused great unrest amongst the inmates and eventually forced them towards mutiny. Another major cause of the riot was the cancellation of educational, recreational and other rehabilitative programs that had run from 1970 to 1975. In that five-year period, the prison had been described as relatively calm. When the educational and recreational programs were stopped in 1975, prisoners had to be locked down for long periods. These conditions created strong feelings of deprivation and discontent in the inmate population that would later

Behind Attica the New Mexico State Penitentiary Riot has been dubbed one of the bloodiest prison riots in United States history. “On February 2, 1980 several guards entered the south side dormitory in cell block E-2 where they were overpowered. From there inmates took the prison guards keys, one of which led to the prison control room. Prisoners flooded the hallway and started beating on shatter-proof glass with pipes and fire extinguishers, which eventually gave way. The frightened guard on-duty fled leaving behind his keys. The inmates stripped, bounded, and blindfolded three guards. The prisoners also had the keys which let them run rampant in the jail taking hostages and freeing other prisoners. The prisoners used the keys to get into a cell block that was being renovated. Construction workers left their tool in this cell block, which included acetylene torches. Prisoners used this to cut

Dr. Len Hightower, the author of the article Success: Entering the Mirror Maze, aim to demonstrate people’s impotent of having a growth mindset, leading to an obscure future. Writing to the broad readers -- specifically educated individuals -- the author addresses the dominance a fixed mindset have over a growth mindset. To convey his purpose, Hightower creates his article using the shifting from third person to first person perspective, an em dash punctuations, and appositive phrases.

Upon arriving at Gander hill, I noticed the way the correctional officers thoroughly perform their security checks. Everyone including the staff that come into the facility had to pull out their pants pockets and lift up their pants leg. The inmates were dressed in all in white uniforms including their footwear. Multiple doors are not opened at the same time, one door opens at a time before you walk through another door. The first section of facilities held about 50 low risk inmates in what seems like an intervention class for mostly drug offenders or for those that need help with their substance abuse. In this particular class, those who graduate from the program are rewarded with microwave that they can personally use. The second section

The theme of this work is that managers constantly adapt to the social environments of their organisations in order to succeed. In such contexts, they have no use for abstract ethical principles, but conform to the requirements of bureaucratic functionality. What implications follow for the ethical leader in business?

Therefore, correctional officers are expected to be vigilant in their duties and hourly checks should be conducted to ensure inmates safety and wellbeing (Garrett, 2012). Additionally, gang conflicts are a major cause of riots, therefore, officers should ensure that they keep an eye out for racial tensions (Garrett, 2012). Furthermore, de-escalation tactics have proven successful in resolving conflicts (Garrett, 2012). Inmates with too much time on their hands can easily organize and plan riots, therefore, programming and employment should be provided in the facilities to decrease the free time (Garrett, 2012). However, if these methods do not prevent riots and the tactical team has to get involved, it is very important that they are properly trained to encounter the situation (Garrett, 2012). The use of mock simulations can be beneficial when dealing with riots as new strategies and ideas can be implemented to minimize any harm or damages that arises as a result (Garrett, 2012). Furthermore, its imperative to confine and contain prison riots to a particular area to reduce its impact (Garrett,

You wake up one morning and find that you are not in your bed; you are not even in your room. You are in the middle of a giant maze. There are only two rules, you have one hour and you cannot touch the walls. You hear the timer countdown from three and before you know it, your time has started. You look down and realize there is a flashlight at your feet for you to navigate the maze with. Slowly, you reach down and grab it and flip the switch to on. The path you will be taking for the next hour is now illuminated, for better or worse. Although you are hesitant to start your journey, you know your time is limited and you do not want to find out what will happen if you run out of time.

Have you ever read a book in which the world has drastically changed and the main characters are trying to fight a powerful person or group? Was the main character somehow special or different from everyone else? Most of the books directed towards teens and young adults have these aspects in them. The Maze Runner, written by James Dashner, is about a boy named Thomas who finds himself in a place called “The Glade” with more teenaged boys around his age and how they struggle to get out. James Dashner uses what seems to be stereotypical characters, setting, and a plot but still manages to create a unique story.

is minimal. Despite the negative setting of the Maze and the positive setting of the Glade Thomas still ventured outside of the walls in search of the way out and the truth. The author shows that the setting is a way of showing how much the characters risked by going into the Maze, because the Maze was a dangerous unknown place where anything could happen. Due to their risks, sacrifices, and bravery they did find a way out.

John tells Colin that he might want to go see the Grand Odlum, a mysterious man who lived at an old castle. Colin takes Brother John’s advice, and decides to find the Grand Odlum.

Intro: I think that the author wrote the book about being in a maze because it is different, it is interesting, and it is exciting.

For our Romanticism project, we are presenting a square maze about the size of a school desk. Within the maze, there will be exactly four balls. Three of which follow the designated path. (the correct way to exit the maze), while the fourth ball is glued to the top right corner of the maze. The top right corner of the maze is going to be green to represent grass. This fourth ball will be glued center of the top right corner. In front of the ball, there will be a tall wall of plywood painted with trees and a few three dimensional trees as well. This right corner represents the forest in which Thoreau spent much of his time writing about the pros of nonconformity. The ball that sits in front of the painted forest scene will be a very colorful

The movie the Maze Runner is a movie based on the book Maze Runner by James Dashner (book by this author is the maze runner series, the mortality doctrine series, the thirteenth reality series). The movie starts off with A young boy who wakes up panicking, in a small metal box the young boy appears,he did not remember how he got there or even who he is. His name is Thomas , but he does not know his name in the beginning (though in the book his name is the only thing that he remembers about himself) he ends up remembering it when he gets into a fight with Gally another character from the movie/book. After had time to adjust to his new life in the glade. Thomas was the newest arrival to The Glade, a grassy remote place populated exclusively by teenage boys, all ripped suddenly from lives they can’t remember. Surrounding their new home is an enormous, shifting maze; each morning, “runners” go out in the maze, mapping its architecture and searching for a way out. Those who don’t come back before sundown, when the entrance to the maze closes, are never seen or heard from again but later on we see that for the first time Thomas and Minho come back alive somehow . Later on a girl who was in the same condition as Thomas comes in with a test tube and a note saying that the “caretakers” will not supply them anymore. The boys are very confused because it's the first time they see a girl go into the glades. The character Gally blames everything bad that's happening to them on Thomas.
