*************This is for Kim Woods Only****************** Please have ALL assignments returned by the appropriate due dates. Assignment 2: Development of the US Prison System The purpose and goals of the US prison system have evolved through the gamut of simplistic corporal punishment and incarceration to modern-day alternative approaches, such as diversionary programs, restorative justice programs, and specialized problem-solving courts. The evolutionary development of the US prison system has coincided with a greater understanding of criminal behavior as well as the criminogenic factors that influence such behavior. Consequently, the US prison system's goals on deterrence, punishment, treatment, and rehabilitation have also evolved. From a larger perspective, the system's predominant philosophies have been influenced by political, legal, and societal factors. Tasks: Using the Argosy University online library resources, research the developments of the early prison system. Compare these developments and changes with those of the prisons that exist today. Submission Details: By Saturday, July 16, 2016, in a minimum of 250 words, post to the Discussion Area your responses to the following: •The early US prison system has gone through many changes. Discuss the significant changes and compare them to the modern prison system. •Explain how the purpose and goals of today's prison system have changed from the earlier system. Discuss the differences that you see in terms of punishment, deterrence, treatment, and rehabilitation in today's prison system. Note: Include an APA-formatted reference page that links back to in-text citations and supports your discussions. Remember, you cannot have only in-text citations or references. You must have both. ******************************************************************** Assignment 3: Prison Management—Past and Present The overriding culture of a prison is established by prison leadership. The policies and procedures of a prison system are aimed to achieve the goals of punishment. From a societal standpoint, imprisonment is one of the primary ways of dispensing punishment. Therefore, prison leadership plays a vital role in meeting the goals of punishment set by the justice system. Prisons should include sufficient punishment to meet a measurable level of deterrence, while ensuring proper programs to rehabilitate the accused. Over time, the predominant philosophy of the US prison system has changed because of political, societal, and legal or judicial influences. Moreover, prison leadership has also modified its policies and procedures to coincide with the respective philosophies in place. Tasks: Using the Argosy University online library resources and assigned readings, prepare a 3- to 5-page report including answers to the following: •From a historical perspective, how does prison leadership achieve the goals of punishment using penology theory as a framework? •Has the perspective of using penology theory ...

Assignment 2: Punishment vs. Rehabilitation: What Society Wants vs. What Works
It's a popular notion that harsh punishment in prison should act as a deterrent to crime. The slogan "to be tough on crime" often extends to the conditions in prison. The evolution of punishment has included executions, corporal punishment, hard labor, and exile.
Despite the presence of harsh punishments since the last twenty years, there has been only a slight deterrent effect. Conversely, approaches to reduce recidivism through evidence-based practices and programs have succeeded.
It is important to understand the goals of punishment and how they relate to public opinion and prison philosophy within the context of what works according to recent research.
Public opinion often recommends harsh punishments and labor for inmates during their incarceration.
Evaluate the use of hard labor and even chain gangs and compare to the theories of criminal rehabilitation and the impact on society. For example, the governor of North Carolina has ordered the use of inmates to clean up public areas after Hurricane Irene in 2011.
Tasks:
Look for the quantitative and qualitative research available to you on the use of inmate labor in your state and one other state using the Argosy University online library resources and prepare a 2- to 3-page paper addressing the following:
Evaluate the outcome of making inmates do hard labor and compare the theories of criminal rehabilitation and the impact on society.
Find research evaluating the outcome of making inmates do hard labor. Does the research support the use of hard labor as an effective method to elicit rehabilitation? Analyze and explain.

As you read, many defendants in the criminal justice system are prosecuted in state courts, which means that for the most part prosecutors rely on state case law and statutes as guidelines for whether or not they should be charged. In this assignment, you will select a defendant who has been prosecuted in your state court.

TaskThere will be one writing assignment in this course to give .docxbradburgess22840
Task
There will be one writing assignment in this course to give you practice and opportunities to get feedback on your writing. This is an individual writing assignment.
For this writing assignment, you will be given an economic podcast and will be asked to critically evaluate it. You will be graded on the quality and thoroughness of your analysis. Therefore, you will also be graded on the clarity, flow and overall cohesiveness of the writing in your paper.
Podcast:
http://freakonomics.com/podcast/uber-economists-dream/ (Links to an external site.)
Paper Outline
Introduction (5 points): The introduction (first paragraph) briefly summarizes what you consider to be the main point(s) of the article. If there are many, focus on the one(s) that you will analyze in the assignment.
Summary (5 points): A short summary of the podcast should be included. This summary should capture the key points presented in the article and any important facts or elements. Do not spend the whole assignment summarizing the entire podcast. Summaries should be succinct and to the point and be approximately one paragraph.
Analysis (15 points): Your analysis should use economic concepts you have learnt in class. In other words, analysis should focus on how topics covered in class are applicable/relevant to the real world. Be sure to demonstrate your analysis using graphs and/or models learned in class. Be careful to address the appropriate audience. Remember; narrow your focus so that your analysis can be more in-depth. That is much more important than hitting every point made in the podcast.
Critical Evaluation (20 points): This is the most important aspect of this assignment.
Students should focus on whether they agree with what is stated in the podcast or what their recommendations may be. Students can also analyze how the material in the podcast will impact the economy in a micro setting. The analysis portion has the potential to be varied in nature. However, I recommend sticking to my guidelines below:
· To evaluate an article you need first to understand the author’s arguments. Start by identifying the assumptions inherent in the argument, checking to see if the conclusions follow from these assumptions. Try to distinguish the argument from the evidence provided to support the argument
· To do a critical evaluation, essentially you should take apart the various steps in the argument and see if they make sense separately and as a whole. Can you use the tools learned in class to think about the argument in another way? Check to see if the author is missing anything in his/her argument or has used some tool or method incorrectly or inappropriately. Is there evidence that contradicts their argument?
· You need to have 1 – 2 economic models we have learned during the semester. (ie, Supply/Demand, Cost Curves, Perfect Competition, Monopolistic Competition, Monopoly, etc)
Conclusion (5 points): It is important to have a strong conclusion sinc.

LASA 1 Impact of Correctional Theories and PunishmentYou will gai.docxVinaOconner450
LASA 1: Impact of Correctional Theories and Punishment
You will gain an understanding of the evolution of correctional philosophies and the correctional system in the United States. The corrections process is a result of society responding to deviance. Responding to deviance has evolved in many ways around the globe. The United States has its own evolution of corrections. This LASA will explore the origin and evolution of prisons from the design of Jeremy Bentham's Panopticon (all-seeing) Prison to today's modern prison systems and the prison privatization industry.
Any inquiry into the origin of prisons requires students to include an overview of the correctional eras in the United States, beginning with the origin of the Walnut Street Jail in Philadelphia in 1790 and through the crime control era of today. It is necessary that you examine the organization of corrections and include the changes in the external society that led to the policy changes in corrections and correctional philosophy. You will assess the purpose, implementation, and effectiveness of corrections, including the major reasons for the movement toward prisonization starting in the 1960s and the evolution to today's current corrections practices.
Tasks:
You recently completed a summer work-study program at the Centervale Corrections facility. This experience has confirmed your interest in pursuing corrections as a career, and you have started taking classes in corrections at Centervale University. As part of your introductory course you are to evaluate, compare, and contrast the historical origins of the correctional enterprise in the United States and the impact of correctional theories and punishment around the globe in a 1500-word, APA style paper (5–7 pages of content, not including the title page, abstract, references, and table of cases), using a minimum of 10 references and three United States Supreme Court cases dealing with prison conditions, prisoner rights, and access to medical treatment.
Chapter five, "Prison Systems," of your textbook will give you some rudimentary information on the current types of prisons; you will supplement this with empirical research in order to fully explore modern prison systems and respond to the following:
Examine the correctional eras in the United States starting with the first era in the 1790s and covering the various eras to include the major reasons for the movement toward prisonization in the 1960s to present practices.
Examine the historical evolution of the Panopticon (all-seeing prison style) developed by Jeremy Bentham and the impact of this style on modern system architecture and the use of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras.
Analyze the political changes in society and the impact of correctional rationales on correctional practice; include how special interest groups and the current intolerance for criminals have forged correctional philosophies.
Compare and contrast the impact of correctional theories and punishme.

James
These four components deal with the method providers are compensated as well as the amount. DRG (Diagnostic Related Groups) comprise of codes that represent different services with a respective price and play a crucial role in properly identifying the correct amount of reimbursement. RVUs (Relative Value Unit) calculate reimbursement amounts based on the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) code.
Bundled payments reimburse providers with a predefined amount based on the service. For example, if a kidney transplant costs $20,000, then every time a provider performs one, they'll receive $20,000. This would account for everything involved in the process of the transplant.
This method of payment is very straight forward but could potentially cost the patient way more than necessary. Not every procedure is the same/ requires the same things. Patients that use a couple of the services in the bundle will pay the same amount as a patient that uses all of them. On top of this, providers can be underpaid in some situations, which could tempt them to disregard services within the bundle that the patient might actually need.
Angela
DRGs are important by processing payments and organizing data while RVUs is a unit that assigns the cost and difficulty of procedures. Capitation is when that the provider gets a set pay per customer/patient each month, no matter how much the patient spends. The downfall of this is that providers who treat very ill people are being paid the same as people who treat healthier people. Technically people who works more or harder will have the same pay as people who don't do as much, so the provider will want more healthier people to treat. A pro is that the payment system is very simple than compared to the complicated billing and coding.

· Avoiding Unauthorized Practice of Law
It is widely known that utilizing paralegals is a frequent concern for practicing attorneys, especially when a paralegal’s actions may leave them performing tasks (e.g., advising on legal rights, negotiation or settlement, management of a law practice, etc.) which could result in the unauthorized practice of law. Per the American Bar Association, one must possess a law license in order to perform such tasks.
Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:

reply to this persons post
Having not taken a test like this in quite some time, I was anxious to see how the 10 years in a management role may have affected my results.
The assessment showed I have a blend of both Dominant and Inspiring traits. My Dominant traits are probably a little stronger than my Inspiring traits. Some words that describe me are: Directive, Decisive, Driven and Interactive. I am task-oriented, and probably get a great deal done. I probably like problem solving and getting results. I am comfortable interacting with others to make things happen.
These results describe me to a T. In my former role, I managed a group of 12 people who supported the efforts of a National Accounts sales team for a large packaging company. We supported a sales portfolio of almost $2billion and dealt with multiple priorities and deadlines almost daily.
I come from a very small town mid-westerner background (high school graduating class of 98 -- that's people, not the year), so I can communicate with people from all walks of life. I was the only person in the office who knew the cleaning crew by name, yet the CEO knew mine. My dad was an iron worker and my mom a homemaker, but they owned several small businesses when I was growing up, so I guess I get my business sense from being raised in that type of environment.
I'm intrigued by what makes people "tick" and I think that helps me interact with people with other leadership styles. My style is very direct (obviously), but I have had the most success leading and managing people because I treat people how I want to be treated and I don't expect anyone to do anything I wouldn't do.
My leadership style served me well for 10 years after which time the company I worked for was bought by another company. The new company had different business philosophies, which included all employees being in Atlanta, with less experience, working for less money, so my department and I were laid off.
I am employed again, but not in a management role, and I struggle with the management and leaders as their style is quite different from mine and my prior boss. I have never encountered so many people who are miserable at their job, so I'm anxious to see what I can learn from this course.............jane

number 2 reply to this based on the above question
On the test, I received a 1.54, which apparently seemed to be the average for the MBA students. I feel that I am actually quite tolerant to change in my current position as a manager. I have to be open to changes on a daily basis because it is a way of life in the corporate environment. As Yukl states, "Relevant competencies identified in more recent research include emotional intelligence, social intelligence, systems thinking, and the ability to learn and adapt to change" (2006, pg. 209). It's important to be able to handle change with acceptance and grace, and try to stay positive. That is how I stay comfortable with change in as a leader and follower, look at it in a way that is positive and feel that I will only grow and learn from the situation. If there were no changes, life would be boring. :) Each day is a new adventure so try to see everything as a good thing even if it seems a bit scary.

How did the media portray the Vietnam War during the 1970's? How did this affect popular youth culture?
number 4
repy to this based on the above question
The television news industry is a business with a profit motive before it is a public service; consequently, producers and reporters attempt to make the news more entertaining by airing stories that involve conflict, human impact, or morality. Television news did not find material that was dramatic enough until the number of American troops was raised to 175, 000 in July 1965 (Hallin, 1986, p.115). Combat, interviews with American soldiers, and helicopter scenes all provided the television news industry with the drama that it required. The networks set up permanent bureaus in Saigon and sent hundreds of correspondents there throughout the war. From 1965 through the Tet Offensive in 1968, 86 percent of the CBS and NBC nightly news programs covered the war, focusing mostly on ground and air combat (Bonior, Champlin, Kolly, 1984, p.4). This coverage was generally very supportive of U.S involvement in the war and of the soldier himself until 1967. The media labeled the conflict as a "good guys shooting Reds" story so that it could fit into the ongoing saga of the Cold War (Wyatt, 1995, p.81).
In the wake of such death and destruction, it isn’t surprising that peace, love and sexual freedom became the mantra of a new generation. The youth movement challenged authority on all fronts, and authority frequently fought back. As the Sixties unfolded, no institution remained untouched, no belief unchallenged. It was a climatic decade. A dashing young president was shot only two brief years a.

LASA 1 Impact of Correctional Theories and PunishmentYou will gai.docxVinaOconner450
LASA 1: Impact of Correctional Theories and Punishment
You will gain an understanding of the evolution of correctional philosophies and the correctional system in the United States. The corrections process is a result of society responding to deviance. Responding to deviance has evolved in many ways around the globe. The United States has its own evolution of corrections. This LASA will explore the origin and evolution of prisons from the design of Jeremy Bentham's Panopticon (all-seeing) Prison to today's modern prison systems and the prison privatization industry.
Any inquiry into the origin of prisons requires students to include an overview of the correctional eras in the United States, beginning with the origin of the Walnut Street Jail in Philadelphia in 1790 and through the crime control era of today. It is necessary that you examine the organization of corrections and include the changes in the external society that led to the policy changes in corrections and correctional philosophy. You will assess the purpose, implementation, and effectiveness of corrections, including the major reasons for the movement toward prisonization starting in the 1960s and the evolution to today's current corrections practices.
Tasks:
You recently completed a summer work-study program at the Centervale Corrections facility. This experience has confirmed your interest in pursuing corrections as a career, and you have started taking classes in corrections at Centervale University. As part of your introductory course you are to evaluate, compare, and contrast the historical origins of the correctional enterprise in the United States and the impact of correctional theories and punishment around the globe in a 1500-word, APA style paper (5–7 pages of content, not including the title page, abstract, references, and table of cases), using a minimum of 10 references and three United States Supreme Court cases dealing with prison conditions, prisoner rights, and access to medical treatment.
Chapter five, "Prison Systems," of your textbook will give you some rudimentary information on the current types of prisons; you will supplement this with empirical research in order to fully explore modern prison systems and respond to the following:
Examine the correctional eras in the United States starting with the first era in the 1790s and covering the various eras to include the major reasons for the movement toward prisonization in the 1960s to present practices.
Examine the historical evolution of the Panopticon (all-seeing prison style) developed by Jeremy Bentham and the impact of this style on modern system architecture and the use of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras.
Analyze the political changes in society and the impact of correctional rationales on correctional practice; include how special interest groups and the current intolerance for criminals have forged correctional philosophies.
Compare and contrast the impact of correctional theories and punishme.

JamesThese four components deal with the method providers are co.docxLaticiaGrissomzz
James
These four components deal with the method providers are compensated as well as the amount. DRG (Diagnostic Related Groups) comprise of codes that represent different services with a respective price and play a crucial role in properly identifying the correct amount of reimbursement. RVUs (Relative Value Unit) calculate reimbursement amounts based on the CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) code.
Bundled payments reimburse providers with a predefined amount based on the service. For example, if a kidney transplant costs $20,000, then every time a provider performs one, they'll receive $20,000. This would account for everything involved in the process of the transplant.
This method of payment is very straight forward but could potentially cost the patient way more than necessary. Not every procedure is the same/ requires the same things. Patients that use a couple of the services in the bundle will pay the same amount as a patient that uses all of them. On top of this, providers can be underpaid in some situations, which could tempt them to disregard services within the bundle that the patient might actually need.
Angela
DRGs are important by processing payments and organizing data while RVUs is a unit that assigns the cost and difficulty of procedures. Capitation is when that the provider gets a set pay per customer/patient each month, no matter how much the patient spends. The downfall of this is that providers who treat very ill people are being paid the same as people who treat healthier people. Technically people who works more or harder will have the same pay as people who don't do as much, so the provider will want more healthier people to treat. A pro is that the payment system is very simple than compared to the complicated billing and coding.

The media labeled the conflict as a "good guys shooting Reds" story so that it could fit into the ongoing saga of the Cold War (Wyatt, 1995, p.81).

Are you a born leader? If yes, provide examples of how you would prove it. If no, where are you short? Are you more comfortable as a leader or a follower? Why?
number 2
reply to this
I am not a born leader. I fall short to the take charge attitude of dominance. I do not have a dominating presence and I tend to shy away from being the center of attention. I would rather be someone's right hand man. I am the Robin to Batman or the Louis Lane to Superman. However, I strive on being a supportive follower that works hard, has a positive attitude, and is the support system for the leader. I have never sight out a leadership position, but I enjoy doing work that carries great importance and helps out the organization.
The readings this week and last week makes me think about the different aspects of my personality and some of the qualities that are considered leadership. According to our readings, "Leadership is realized in the process of influencing the activities of an organized group toward goal achievement" (Yukl, 2006, P.3). Even though a person is not in a direct leadership position or prefers to stay out of the lime light, they can still influence people by their attitudes, work ethic, and loyalty to the company. It does not take a person to be in a leadership position to show leadership qualities.
In conclusion, I am not a born leader, but I show certain qualities that reflect leadership. I would rather be someone's sidekick and help them guide and influence the organization to success. Dominance is not a strength of mine and because of that I find it hard to take charge and be the boss.

When is participative leadership most likely to be effective? When not? Provide an example of when you've seen participative leadership in your experience be effective or ineffective.
number 4 reply to this
Participative leadership involves efforts by a leader to encourage and facilitate participation by others in making important decisions" (Yukl, 2006, p. 82). I think participative leadership is important because it involves an entire team, and it shows the value of others ideas and creates leadership opportunities. I think this type of leadership is most effective when there has been a steady track record of the leader following through with the thoughts of others. When a leader truly wants what is best for the company, and they can see beyond themselves. Participative leadership can effective as well as ineffective.
An effective example of participative leadership would be an employee owned company or volunteer projects. When a company is employee owned, all employees want what is best and so its important to listen to everyone and the leader to do what is best for the company. Another effective example would be volunteer projects such as .

What are the implications of your 'change tolerance' for you as a leader? As a follower? How does one become more comfortable with change?
number 2 reply to this based on the above question
On the test, I received a 1.54, which apparently seemed to be the average for the MBA students. I feel that I am actually quite tolerant to change in my current position as a manager. I have to be open to changes on a daily basis because it is a way of life in the corporate environment. As Yukl states, "Relevant competencies identified in more recent research include emotional intelligence, social intelligence, systems thinking, and the ability to learn and adapt to change" (2006, pg. 209). It's important to be able to handle change with acceptance and grace, and try to stay positive. That is how I stay comfortable with change in as a leader and follower, look at it in a way that is positive and feel that I will only grow and learn from the situation. If there were no changes, life would be boring. :) Each day is a new adventure so try to see everything as a good thing even if it seems a bit scary.

How did the media portray the Vietnam War during the 1970's? How did this affect popular youth culture?
number 4
repy to this based on the above question
The television news industry is a business with a profit motive before it is a public service; consequently, producers and reporters attempt to make the news more entertaining by airing stories that involve conflict, human impact, or morality. Television news did not find material that was dramatic enough until the number of American troops was raised to 175, 000 in July 1965 (Hallin, 1986, p.115). Combat, interviews with American soldiers, and helicopter scenes all provided the television news industry with the drama that it required. The networks set up permanent bureaus in Saigon and sent hundreds of correspondents there throughout the war. From 1965 through the Tet Offensive in 1968, 86 percent of the CBS and NBC nightly news programs covered the war, focusing mostly on ground and air combat (Bonior, Champlin, Kolly, 1984, p.4). This coverage was generally very supportive of U.S involvement in the war and of the soldier himself until 1967.

answer this one in a pargraph
Although you may not be a formal manager, you have opportunities to be a leader, even for a short time, as part of a team or as an individual.
In your current role how do you consider yourself a leader? What leadership theories best fit you as a leader? Which theories best fit you when you are leading and when you are a follower? Are the theories the same at all times? Why or why not?
number 2
reply to this one based on the above question
Right now I am a stay at home mother, so that is currently my leadership role. I am a leader to my son and because I am a parent, I see myself as being strong and authoritative, when it comes to the “leadership role” of being a mother.
I think the leadership theories that best fit me would be:
Situational
and
Transformational
.
I feel as though one of my greatest strengths is being able to adapt to new situations very easily. I can also adapt how I am, to each individual that I am with to best suit what is needed for them to strive at their respective position.
I also like to lead by example and am confident and optimistic in my decisions. When I have a goal that needs to be set, I stand by it and believe the outcome will come with hard work and the right goal setting.
The theory that best fits me as a follower would probably have to be
The Charismatic Leader
. I would like to have a leader that is going to be sympathetic + understanding to problems that occur in the workforce. Having a leader that is willing to make sacrificies for the best of the company and is confident is also very important.
I don’t believe that all of the Theories are the same. I believe that they all have the same basic approach, which is to lead a team, but the strategies behind each Theory is different.

RE: INVITATION FOR A FEEDBACK ON PERSONAL BEHAVIOUR AND STYLE
I hope you are fine and in good health. I am writing this letter to provoke feedback from you concerning my personal behavioral style. I currently undertook a disc assessment so as to know my behaviors. As you may have heard, the assessment categorizes all individuals into four subsets of behavior.
The four subsets are namely: Dominance, influence, steadiness and conscientiousness.
Accordingly, the results implied that I am a person who places emphasis in accomplishing results. The results dictate that my behaviors are: I consist of seeing a big picture. I am blunt. I accept challenges and I get straight to the point. To make the results more reliable, I am requesting you to kindly let me know the kind of a person that I am. Kindly use the descriptive words that are mainly used to describe individuals in, accordance with the Disc assessment.

nron Corporation was launched in 1985, with the merger of Houston Na.docxabhi353063
nron Corporation was launched in 1985, with the merger of Houston Natural Gas and InterNorth, a Nebraska company. In 1990, Enron—which was just a natural gas transportation company at the time—started a new division to trade natural gas. The company went from being a “stodgy” gas pipeline company to being a “world-class” company overnight. Enron soon became a $55 billion empire, trading gas, electricity, minerals, water, paper and broadband capacity.
A critical part of Enron’s success was the company’s employee value proposition (EVP). The EVP focused on Enron as a dealmaker and was designed to attract the top talent the company needed to continue to move it forward. The EVP provided employees with the opportunity to do something “big” and to change how business was done in other industries. Jobs were restructured to give employees a lot of elbow room and headroom. Traditional gas pipeline employees were not the employees needed for this new, never-before-tried venture. Internal job movements at Enron were an important part of the EVP. Managers were strongly encouraged to allow employees to move within the company. The goal was to not hold anyone back. When the Global Broadband unit was launched, 100 top performers from around the company were brought together in Houston. By the end of the day, 50 had been recruited for the new project. Overall, the recruiting strategy focusing on internal recruitment paid off. The business continued to grow and attract entrepreneurial employees.
The company that thought it had nowhere to go but up came crashing down in 2001, when it was charged with illegal activities. By 2004, Enron’s corporate officers faced numerous charges of wrongdoing, and the company was a shell of its former self. Managers were charged with manufacturing profits, hiding debt, and bullying Wall Street to buy into its questionable accounting and investment practices. An extensive amount of downsizing had occurred, and many employees had lost all of their retirement savings after Enron’s stock collapsed. Faced with bankruptcy and a sullied reputation, the company struggled to continue but finally made the decision to cease to exist once all litigation concludes.
At one time, Enron’s recruiting efforts were described as a model for other employers. Enron portrayed itself as an exciting company with lots of growth opportunity—a firm in which employees experienced a great deal of autonomy and responsibility.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1.
Enron did a lot of things right from a recruiting standpoint. Discuss its recruiting strategy and why it worked.
2.
Do you think that Enron’s overall recruitment EVP and strategy played any role in the problems that resulted at Enron? If so, what and how?
3.
Discuss why it’s important to create a recruiting message that’s attractive but that doesn’t “oversell” the company.
4.

One of the differences between an S Corp and a partnership for example is that allocations of income are made to shareholders on a per-share per-day basis.
Here is an example for us to work through:
The Bridges Corporation, and S Corporation, is owned equally by three shareholders, Carl, David, and Dale. The corporation is on a calendar year basis. (By the way S Corps must use a calendar year end, unlike C Corps which can choose a fiscal year end.) On February 1, 2013, Dale sold his 1/3 interest to Matt. For the year ended December 31, 2013 the corporation had non-separately stated ordinary income of $120,000.

Nothing in science is written in stone.Whenever new discoveries .docxabhi353063
Nothing in science is written in stone.
Whenever new discoveries force scientists to reconsider their hypotheses, theories and data, they do just that. This is why people think of science as a collection of concepts that are always being revised.
This holds true for the basic building block concepts within science as well. The cell is a perfect example of this: in the mid-1600s, Robert Hooke used one of the very first microscopes to examine thin slices of cork. When he saw that the cork plant was made up of tiny box-shaped pieces, he gave science the concept of the cell. For 100 years, people thought of the cell as the smallest thing inside all living creatures. But then, in 1781, Felice Fontana spotted something even smaller inside the cells from an eel: the nucleolus. This discovery made people rethink the idea that cells were the tiniest things inside living creatures. Clearly, there were even smaller things inside cells.
Since Fontana's time, scientists have refined, revised, and rewritten their view of the cell thousands of times in order to match up with every piece of new data. This same process has happened with the scientific view of geological processes including plate tectonics and earthquakes.
Review attachment 17.2 on "Science in the Making, Reactions to Plate Tectonics." and answer questions below also

Science and revision
In 200 words answer these questions
Using what you learned about plate tectonics, Alfred Wegener, and the basics of scientific investigation from the previous units discuss the following:
Did Wegener reveal his theory of continental drift too soon? For the sake of scientific investigation, how is revealing an explanation for a process early both risky and sometimes necessary?
Apart from lacking an explanation for how the continents could move across the surface of the Earth, Wegener’s research was met by skepticism for other reasons. How can a scientist overcome skepticism? What features of the scientific method can help prevent a scientist from being labeled a crackpot?
If Alfred Wegener were alive today, and had access to the technology and data we have now, share a form of evidence that he could have added to his theory or would have changed his theory. Try to share a different form of evidence from those shared by your classmates and/or add to their posts by describing how the evidence is collected, how the technology works to collect the data, or how this technology/evidence has been used in other applications.

Notes on Hermes I. Hermes and Boundaries A. Hermes’ na.docxabhi353063
Notes on Hermes
I. Hermes and Boundaries
A. Hermes’ name
1. Greek Hermeias
2. Clearly from herma, cairn (pile of stones that marks a boundary)
3. Makes him god of boundaries
B. Hermes’ various functions
1. All have to do with boundaries in some way
2. A herald (Gr. kerux, which can also be translated “courier” or
“messenger”) crosses boundaries on official business
a) and are unbelievably important in non-literate cultures like
the Archaic Greek culture that gives us almost all of classical
myth, because they would have had to have professional skill at
memorization
b) that skill, in turn, makes them like the bards, which will be
essential understanding the Homeric Hymn to Hermes and also
certain important aspects of the Odyssey
c) and it also gives them a special relation to the truth,
because a herald would have had a really amazing ability to lie
and get away with it
3. The psychopomp (guide of souls) crosses the boundary between
life and death
4. The holder of the kerykeion (later called the caduceus just
through mispronunciation) controls the boundary between sleep and
waking
5. The god of thieves has power over the boundaries around
people’s houses.
II. Hermes the Trickster
A. The figure of the trickster is found in many mythologies: a character
who uses his or her wits to win fame
1. One way to look at the trickster is as a character who controls
and manipulates boundaries: especially the boundary between true and
false
2. On this understanding, Hermes and Odysseus are both tricksters,
because of their travel, their wits, and their lying
B. When Odysseus enters the house of Alkinoos, the Phaiakians are just
pouring the last libation of the day, to Hermes. Why?
1. Because Hermes controls sleep
2. Because Hermes, god of thieves, controls boundaries you want
others to keep away from
3. Because Odysseus is crossing their boundary at this moment!
4. It’s the bard’s way of making the Hermes/Odysseus/trickster
connection
C. Suggested viewing: “The Adventurs of Baron Munchausen” directed
by Terry Gilliam
1. A wonderful version of an 18
th
century story of a trickster, using
movie magic to negotiate the boundaries
III. The Homeric Hymn to Hermes
A. In this hymn, the anonymous bards have created a meditation on the
meaning of the trickster hero, and his relation to kleos, epic glory
1. Hermes has a problem, because he’s been born far from Olympus
2. But as the child of Zeus and Maia, he should be an Olympian
3. He’s a god of tricks, and of the dark, but that’s not what
Olympus is about
4. and Apollo is the best example: Apollo is himself, as the god of
music and of the lyre, the god of kleos
B. The master-stroke is probably having Hermes invent the lyre
1. Which is highly analogous to having Odysseus take over the telling
of his story
2. and shows that some of the bards, at least, recognized that they
were pretty much jus.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Development of the US Prison System The purpose and goals of
the US prison system have evolved through the gamut of
simplistic corporal punishment and incarceration to modern-day
alternative approaches, such as diversionary programs,
restorative justice programs, and specialized problem-solving
courts. The evolutionary development of the US prison system
has coincided with a greater understanding of criminal behavior
as well as the criminogenic factors that influence such behavior.
Consequently, the US prison system's goals on deterrence,
punishment, treatment, and rehabilitation have also evolved.
From a larger perspective, the system's predominant
philosophies have been influenced by political, legal, and
societal factors. Tasks: Using the Argosy University online
library resources, research the developments of the early prison
system. Compare these developments and changes with those of
the prisons that exist today. Submission Details: By Saturday,
July 16, 2016, in a minimum of 250 words, post to the
Discussion Area your responses to the following: •The early US
prison system has gone through many changes. Discuss the
significant changes and compare them to the modern prison
system. •Explain how the purpose and goals of today's prison
system have changed from the earlier system. Discuss the
differences that you see in terms of punishment, deterrence,
treatment, and rehabilitation in today's prison system. Note:
Include an APA-formatted reference page that links back to in-
text citations and supports your discussions. Remember, you
cannot have only in-text citations or references. You must have
both.
*****************************************************
*************** Assignment 3: Prison Management—Past and
Present The overriding culture of a prison is established by
prison leadership. The policies and procedures of a prison
2. system are aimed to achieve the goals of punishment. From a
societal standpoint, imprisonment is one of the primary ways of
dispensing punishment. Therefore, prison leadership plays a
vital role in meeting the goals of punishment set by the justice
system. Prisons should include sufficient punishment to meet a
measurable level of deterrence, while ensuring proper programs
to rehabilitate the accused. Over time, the predominant
philosophy of the US prison system has changed because of
political, societal, and legal or judicial influences. Moreover,
prison leadership has also modified its policies and procedures
to coincide with the respective philosophies in place. Tasks:
Using the Argosy University online library resources and
assigned readings, prepare a 3- to 5-page report including
answers to the following: •From a historical perspective, how
does prison leadership achieve the goals of punishment using
penology theory as a framework? •Has the perspective of using
penology theory as a framework to achieve the goals of
punishment changed throughout history? Are there common
themes that reoccur with the goals of prison management? Note:
Include at least one or two references from the Argosy
University online library. At the end of the report, prepare an
APA-formatted reference page that links back to in-text
citations and supports your recommendations. Remember, you
cannot have only in-text citations or only references. You must
have both. Submission Details: •Save the report as

************** Assignment 1: Effects of Solitary
Confinement Solitary confinement is used to keep dangerous
inmates away from other inmates and corrections staff. Typical
solitary confinement consists of twenty-three hours in the cell
and one hour of time-out in the open every day. Prison officials
must take into account the health and welfare of inmates in
solitary confinement. Long-term solitary confinement can be
psychologically challenging for the inmates because of a lack of
3. human interaction. There is significant monotony, with very
little outside activity. Therefore, there should be appropriate
mental health support for these inmates, in addition to increased
inspections and routine rounds by medical staff. These
considerations need to be weighed against the need for
maintaining administrative management, disciplinary control,
and prisoner protection. Submission Details: By Saturday, July
23, 2016, in a minimum of 250 words, post to the Discussion
Area your responses to the following: •Discuss the mental
effects of solitary confinement and possible long-term
problems. •Discuss some procedures that could be implemented
to ensure the psychological health of prisoners in solitary
confinement. •Explain why it is important that we consider the
mental health of prisoners in solitary confinement.

**************** Assignment 2: Library Research:
Correctional System Budget The correctional system budget is
one of the largest sections of a state's yearly budget. The
current philosophy of being tough on criminals has resulted in
overcrowding in prisons and massive corrections budgets.
However, the recent overall decline in many state economies
and the national economy has forced states to cut their
corrections budgets and include alternative sanctions other than
incarceration and still be accountable for maintaining public
safety. Most prison systems have been negatively affected in
recent years by these budget cuts. Due to scarce budgets, states
have been forced to reduce staffing and cut funding to crime
prevention programs. The staffing cuts have become necessary
because people are the most expensive part of running a prison.
States have also privatized services and programs such as food
service, medical services, warehouse and maintenance
operations, and educational services to reduce costs. Typically,
programming services are reviewed for reductions as they are
not considered the core of prison operations such as custody and
security. Tasks: Using the Argosy University online library
resources and the textbook readings, write a 3- to 5-page paper
4. that addresses the following: •Analyze and explain how budget
cuts affect the various programs in the correctional system.
•Analyze the pros and cons of privatizing prison services and
programs to alleviate budgetary costs. Explain whether state
governments should relinquish correctional supervision and
control to private entities. •Explain how enacting legislations
that are thought to be tough on crime affects the prison system's
ethical responsibilities to prisoners. Include the following
points in your responses: •Legal requirements of a correctional
system: food, housing, and medical care •Prison safety •Prison
programs: General Education Development (GED), English as a
Second Language (ESL), and trades Submission Details: •Save

******************* Assignment 1: Prison Programming and
Its Impact on Rehabilitation and Recidivism In addition to
bringing about positive behavior change among inmates,
reducing recidivism, and making the society safer, effective
prison programming also improves facility operations by
reducing prisoner idleness and institutional violence. Moreover,
effective prison programming can have a substantial impact on
prison operations and the overall criminal justice system and
lead to improved prison operations and reduced chances of
violence inside prisons. Also, prison programming can save the
criminal justice system a lot of money by reducing recidivism.
The result is less money spent on corrections and adjudication
of repeat offenders. Presently, considering the amount of money
allocated to corrections, people expect prison programs to be
effective and capable of lowering recidivism rates. Submission
Details: By Saturday, July 30, 2016, in at least 250 words, post
to the Discussion Area your responses to the following:
•Discuss current trends and prison programs and how they help
in the daily management of inmates. •Discuss examples of
common rehabilitation programs that you could find in prisons.
5. You may include examples from prisoner reentry programs or
individual programs for prisoners. •List and discuss the types of
programs that reduce chances for violence or focus on prosocial
behavior.

**************** Assignment 2: LASA 1: Centervale State
Penitentiary’s New Mutual Agreement Parole Program The state
of North Carolina has implemented the Mutual Agreement
Parole Program (MAPP) since 1975 (North Carolina Department
of Corrections, 2011). Because its 2011 report indicates that
approximately 10% of the inmates who started the program were
terminated from the program, the Centervale State Penitentiary
has decided to review North Carolina's MAPP model to
determine how to ethically create its own model. You are a
consultant who has been hired by the Centervale State
Penitentiary to research and build a workable model of a new
MAPP-like program. Like all programs, the MAPP model is
expected to have strengths and weaknesses. North Carolina has
published not only its 2011 report but also its MAPP's policies
and procedures. The director and warden of Centervale Prison
have asked you to review these documents and report on the
following in an 8- to 10-page document. Make sure your
document is APA formatted and follows guidelines of the sixth
edition of the APA, using credible scholarly, academic, and
government resources. Here’s What You Need to Do . . .
1.Research the purposes and goals of inmate reentry programs.
Define and discuss the purposes and goals of inmate reentry as
they relate to the ethical obligations prison administrators and
government officials have to society. 2.North Carolina has been
criticized for allowing violent offenders to return to society
only to reoffend (see the digital resources). Some citizens of
Centervale are concerned about violent offenders who were
once in maximum security, sentenced to life in prison, but who
are now in medium or minimum security after completing or
continuing extensive inmate rehabilitation programming, being
accepted into the MAPP and eventually being released into
6. Centervale. Recently, citizens have raised their concerns to the
warden and director of prisons because a MAPP parole
reoffended by committing a violent sexual assault on an elderly
female after one week of his release from prison. Evaluate the
criteria for eligibility for North Carolina's MAPP. Address
citizen concerns and prison programming's impact on society if
the Centervale State Penitentiary were to adopt a similar model.
Propose modifications to North Carolina's MAPP eligibility
criteria toward ethical obligations to public safety. Be sure to
provide support for your proposed changes based on your
research on other reentry programs. 3.In August 1979, the state
of Wisconsin published a report on the problems that ended its
Department of Corrections Mutual Agreement Parole Program.
Some of the problems that the Department of Health and Social
Services identified were as follows (State of Wisconsin, 1979,
pp. 116–123): a.No clear expectations and goals were set for
inmates. b.There was lack of rational planning structure by
staff. c.The prison administration did not value or train the
MAPP staff efficiently or effectively. d.The MAPP had no real
links to outside inmate employment opportunities. e.No
postrelease follow-through took place. Compare North
Carolina's MAPP policy and procedures with the understanding
that Wisconsin's program fell apart because of some of the
problems listed above. As a consultant for the Centervale State
Penitentiary, recommend how Centervale's new model might
address Wisconsin's problems a, b, c, d, and e. Develop
solutions to these problems and support your ideas with
research on programming models that have proven to be
successful. 4.Analyze North Carolina's policy and procedure for
termination or renegotiation for inmate MAPP contracts. What
changes or recommendations to this policy and procedure might
you suggest for Centervale? 5.The director of prisons has come
to you with concerns that his office is being criticized for being
soft on crime. He claims that the Gainsville state attorney
general has accused him of unethical practice by making
promises to parole inmates who are considered dangerous to
7. society through the new MAPP program regardless of Gainsville
state's attorneys, judges, victims, witnesses, and law
enforcement officers who testified in their trials by writing
compelling letters protesting the inmates' release. The
Gainsville state attorney general has argued that North
Carolina's MAPP eligibility requirement of being infraction free
for ninety days is unreasonable because the inmate who was
released and who reoffended after only seven days had forty-
one infractions over more than fifteen years, including assaults
on prison staff and attempted sexual assaults on other inmates,
before being infraction free for ninety days and, therefore,
qualifying for the MAPP. The attorney general further argued
that infraction free for ninety days or not, this inmate should
have never qualified for the MAPP in North Carolina and that it
was unethical to put citizens at risk by granting him parole. The
director of prisons tells you that the Gainsville attorney general
has begun a movement for a new type of parole board in
response to the director's announcement that the MAPP might
be coming to Centervale. The Gainsville attorney general wants
the citizens of Centervale represented on the MAPP parole
board. Recommend how you might create a board of individuals
that would take into account the ethical considerations of the
inmates, the MAPP staff, the victims and families of the
convicted inmate being considered for release, and the citizens
of Centervale. References: North Carolina Department of

***************** Assignment 1: Prisoner Programming as It
Relates to Inmate Characteristics Prison officials deal with
different categories of inmates, such as aging, mentally ill, or
violent inmates. To ensure rehabilitation, prosocial behavior,
and reduction and elimination of violent behavior among
prisoners, there must be proper programming. When considering
the proper programming for prisoners, criminogenic factors and
needs must be taken into account. Programming is recommended
based on each prisoner's unique characteristics. While prisoners
may have some general characteristics as a group, each prisoner
has unique needs and characteristics. Considerations such as
age, medical needs, psychiatric needs, and violence factors
come into play when making needs assessment. Therefore, in
order to ensure optimal chances for rehabilitation and prosocial
behavior among prisoners, proper programming is paramount. It
is important to understand that for programming to be effective,
the "one size fits all" approach is not optimal. Tasks: By
Saturday, August 6, 2016, in at least 250 words, post to the
Discussion Area your answers to the following: •Discuss
examples of rehabilitation programs that you could find related
to different categories of inmates. •Explain how social learning
theory relates to prison programs. •Discuss the evidence that
demonstrates the effectiveness of prison rehabilitation
programs.
*****************************************************
**************** Assignment 2: Punishment vs.
Rehabilitation: What Society Wants vs. What Works It's a
popular notion that harsh punishment in prison should act as a
deterrent to crime. The slogan "to be tough on crime" often
extends to the conditions in prison. The evolution of
punishment has included executions, corporal punishment, hard
labor, and exile. Despite the presence of harsh punishments
since the last twenty years, there has been only a slight
deterrent effect. Conversely, approaches to reduce recidivism
9. through evidence-based practices and programs have succeeded.
It is important to understand the goals of punishment and how
they relate to public opinion and prison philosophy within the
context of what works according to recent research. Public
opinion often recommends harsh punishments and labor for
inmates during their incarceration. Evaluate the use of hard
labor and even chain gangs and compare to the theories of
criminal rehabilitation and the impact on society. For example,
the governor of North Carolina has ordered the use of inmates
to clean up public areas after Hurricane Irene in 2011. Tasks:
Look for the quantitative and qualitative research available to
you on the use of inmate labor in your state and one other state
using the Argosy University online library resources and
prepare a 2- to 3-page paper addressing the following: •Evaluate
the outcome of making inmates do hard labor and compare the
theories of criminal rehabilitation and the impact on society.
•Find research evaluating the outcome of making inmates do
hard labor. Does the research support the use of hard labor as an
effective method to elicit rehabilitation? Analyze and explain.
Note: Make sure you include a reference page in APA style.

**************** Assignment 1: LASA 2: Centervale State
Penitentiary Management of Prison Violence The Ninth Circuit
Court has received a large number of complaints filed by
prisoners claiming that their civil rights are being violated
because they are housed in accommodations made unsafe due to
the frequent outbursts of violence in the Centervale State
Penitentiary. As a result, the Ninth Circuit Court judge has
given the governor an ultimatum that if the amount of violence
in the prison is not reduced, the prison's management and
leadership will be turned over to the federal government. The
director of prisons is now under scrutiny because it appears that
the warden, his administrators, and his staff are not maintaining
10. a safe environment for staff either, as evidenced by the brutal
beating of a male staff member during a fight between two
prison gangs in the corridor outside the mess hall inside the
Centervale State Penitentiary. As the assistant to the warden's
director of the Penology Research Team, you have been asked
to prepare a report that explains penology theory, prison
violence, inmate programming, and rehabilitation for the
warden and for the director of prisons that the governor will
most likely review. Challenges that you will have to address in
your report are many, but primarily, the director of prisons is
interested in how prison violence will be reduced by 5% within
one year, regardless of the fact that the legislature has just cut
even more funding on the corrections system when the prison is
understaffed and inmates are in need of programs. Here’s What
You Need to Do . . . Using APA format and APA guidelines,
compose an 8- to 10-page paper using the Argosy University
online library resources to address the following: 1.Define and
discuss in detail the goals of penology theory and integrate the
discussion with the overarching goal of prison management and
leadership. 2.Research US penology theory and practice.
Identify and explain five strengths and five weaknesses of the
US prison management system as a whole. 3.The Centervale
State Penitentiary is an old prison with a limited number of
cameras in a few places. It does not have state-of-the-art
equipment, and its policies and procedures to counteract prison
violence have been in place for decades. Research penology
prison violence reduction plans, policy, and procedure using the
Argosy University online library resources. Discuss at least one
violence reduction program that has failed and one program that
you think might work. Be sure to explain why the program was
successful or why it might have failed. 4.The Centervale State
Penitentiary has two programs for inmates to work in—the
Cafeteria Program and the Prison Grounds Program. No
educational programs exist at this time. Propose a course of
action to reduce violence by implementing the following:
•Educational Programming •Employee Developmental Training
11. •Proactive Supervision Model 5.The brutal beating of
Centervale State Penitentiary corrections Officer Brian Belle
outraged the public to the extent that some citizens protested
against inmates' rights in the state capitol. Officer Belle
suffered a broken leg, a broken arm, eight broken ribs, one
broken vertebrae, and a skull fracture, which caused medical
professionals to keep him in a medically induced coma for over
a month. After more than six months, Officer Belle returned to
work, only to face the same situation again in the same corridor
under the same policies. Staunchly, Officer Belle maintains his
authority in the prison and intends to testify against them at
their trial. Officer Belle constantly receives community support,
and the District Attorney's Office receives constant complaints
about how long it is taking to try the inmates charged with
assaulting Officer Belle. Research and explain from a broad
perspective how prison violence impacts society. Does prison
violence impact society? Be very specific in stating ways in
which prison violence might impact society, based on your
research findings using credible sources. Submission Details:

*************** Assignment 2: Lessons from the Past with a
Focus on the Future We are the sum total of our experience to
date. Therefore, we need to review and know our past and learn
to improve our future. A review of the past two hundred years
of prison history shows that history repeats itself. Throughout
our history, we have passed through the same eras, naming them
slightly different each time. For instance, if we look
historically, the period of transition we are moving toward now
is a community-based (rehabilitative) model, which was
experienced most recently in the 1960s and the 1970s. The
criminal justice system tries to learn from the past mistakes and
achievements in each era and believes to execute the dominant
philosophies more effectively in the future. The theories have a
12. theoretical base but are modified based on social, judicial, and
legislative influences. Knowledge, research, experience, and
technology all impact our theories as well. We continue to
evolve, which is a positive characteristic. The nature of crime
and our knowledge of how to address crime have also changed.
The sophistication of our diagnostic and assessment techniques
and instruments has allowed us to identify criminogenic factors.
This will allow us to not only improve outcomes but also make
contributions to social policy. We will continue to need bright,
motivated people to take us into the future. We also need to
review our approach to sentencing and ensure it is contributing
to success. Through this class, we have learned about the
history, theories, and future of corrections. By now, have your
views about penology and its directions changed? Tasks: By
Sunday, August 14, 2016, in at least 250 words, post to the
Discussion Area your answers to the following questions: •What
are some of the future challenges facing corrections and the
steps we could take to deal with the challenges? •What impact
will technology have on the future of penology? •Does the
criminal justice system require a new paradigm for sentencing?
