The Guard

The film I decided to analyze was that of “Gladiator” (2000). It depicts the death of Marcus Aurelius and his wishes that after he dies, a faithful Roman soldier by the name of Maximus Decimus Meridius take his place as emperor. However, Marcus Aurelius’ son, Commodus, takes matters into his own hands to guarantee that he will be the one to be proclaimed heir and ultimately, Caesar. Although, the film explores the history of Rome by including several historical figures, it is mainly based on a…

These advances are needed to analyze and interpret data to coordinate responses to emergencies, track vital information and train personnel. One…

Have you ever spent months making plans and suddenly something ruins it? I recently made the long trip back to Guam to surprise my grandparents and the experience made me realize just how difficult it was to travel alone. Hectic city traffic, flight delays, and the apprehension of a long flight all make for a frustrating process. The excitement of arriving at a destination can be outweighed by the stress caused by travel. I finally arrived at the airport after sitting in traffic for what…

On Friday 10/09/2015, at 0147 hours, Security Officers Omar Alonso and Marcellus Wester responded to a call for assistance with a disorderly male patient from E.D. room # C-24. Both Officers arrived at 0148 hrs. and met with Nurse Christiane Dotson who stated that the patient, Sanchez-Garlobo, Manuel (MRN: 70032631/FIN: 84678786) was belligerent and would not follow any instructions given to him by the attending Physician or any nursing staff. She also stated that he had a pair of scissors in…

unnerving. “Where are you traveling to?” The security officer said. As best as I could, I tried answering just like an adult. “I am going to Washington D.C and following that flight, we are going to Senegal, Africa. “Great, safe travels.” The security guard said with smile. Next looked up to see a long conveyor belt with little tubs. I read the sign and followed the directions. I knew there was a line behind me so I ripped off my shoes with aggressions and placed all my objects in my tub. I…

Part A In 1829 Sir Robert Peel established 9 principles, these principle are used today to guide the minds of the 21st century police. After 200 years the principles are still the same but the there are many differences that have changed and evolved the police. In the 21st century there are many forces changing the police, such as police action to reduce fear and promote co-operation with communities, the new developments in technology, the deconstruction of old quasi-military policing and, the…

What if it was a fact that out of, say, one thousand freshman girls starting off at college this year, a total of two hundred of them will likely be a victim of sexual assault? According to Wood County’s Rape Crisis Center, in their brochure titled, You Don’t Have to Cope Alone: A Booklet for the Female Sexual Assault Survivor, sexual assault is defined to be “crimes involving sexual conduct or sexual contact.” In an article titled, “Researchers Just Found a Way to Reduce Sexual Assault on…

To Guard or Fight … Warrior vs. Guardian police mentality, which is best for officers? Each video had some great points, we see a collection of officers who truly desire for policing to be a responsible institution. Instead of seeing police as a force of law each held a position that seemed to nurture the philosophy to “serve and protect.” Each speaker presented themselves as a vessel for change. Brian Willis presented the very real truth of how many citizens view the police – as a dishonest…

insignificant things can do a great deal to prevent fire damage to systems and prevent the loss of life. Regular training is essential to insure that all personnel are prepared in case of an emergency (Pagoria, 2004). Also having one of the security guards check the fire extinguishers every month to ensure that they are full and untampered with will go a long way to ensuring that they are operational when needed. The fire department should be called out at least twice per year to do a full…

will spend their free time, who they are going to hang out with, and what clubs they are going to join. But when parents walk onto college campuses, they tend to think about how safe the campus really is. They search for emergency poles, security guards, police officers, and video cameras. Sending one’s impressionable teen out the door onto an unknown campus is a scary thought. Parents just want their children to be safe and happy, but most of all safe. Crimes occurring at colleges are…
