What are four types of prisons for adults?

There are
many different types of prison. Prisoners will be sent to a specific facility depending on the
type of crime (petty to violent), and the level of law that has been broken (state, federal,
military).

Here's a quick run down on the major prison categories:


Juvenile: Reserved for young (under 18 years of age)
prisoners.

Minimum Security: Reserved for
committers of non-violent crimes. Prisoners are often incarcerated for "white-collar"
crimes, such as fraud. Security is minimal and accommodation is often dormitory style.


Medium Security: The next step up, medium security prisons
are what most people think of as "prison". Personal freedoms are fewer than in a
minimum security facility and the daily routine of inmates is more regimented. "Cage"
style accommodation is often used.

Close
Security:
Here prisoners are usually housed 1-2 per cell. Each cell has toilet
facilities. Inmates may leave their cells for work programs, or to use common areas.


Maximum Security: Maximum security is reserved for
offenders of the most violent crimes. Guards are armed and plentiful. Every inmate is regarded
as dangerous. The USA also has a Supermax prison
facility. 

Psychiatric: Psychiatric prisons
often resemble hospitals. They house inmates who are deemed "mentally
unfit."

Military: Military prisons house
prisoners of war and personnel who have broken national security laws. Every branch of the
military has their own prison facilities.

Federal or
State? 
If someone commits a Federal crime, then they are likely to be sent to a
Federal prison -- the exception being violent crime. Federal prisons also prohibit
parole.

How do Edwards' comparisons heighten one's awareness of humanity's perilous state?

Edwards'
comparisons are reflective of the idea that human beings' actions have angered God and that
human salvation is only capable through divine mercy.  The idea that God's wrath is being
"dammed" by his own will is one such comparison.  It brings out the very idea that
human beings are not in control, contrary to what they might feel. Rather, they must surrender
to God's own...

Should we read A Streetcar Named Desireautobiographically? Do you believe that knowledge of Tennessee Williams's sexuality and the...

I think
that it is very difficult to divorce the autobiographical elements from Williams's work.  This
becomes especially valid in .  There are two specific quotes from
Williams's life that I think makes this the case.  One is from Williams's mother, who spoke
about the intensity with which her son would approach the writing process in his formative
years:

Tom would go to his room with black coffee and
cigarettes and I would hear the typewriter clicking away at night in the silent house. Some
mornings when I walked in to wake him for work, I would find him sprawled fully dressed across
the bed, too tired to remove his clothes.

At the time of
his mother's observations, Williams faced a level of dissatisfaction with his private and
professional life.  It is in this light where I think that it is clear that Williams was able to
use his writing as a way to exorcise out the demons that he felt plagued him.  Williams
approached his work with a fervor and intensity...

What does Mama realize about her daughters at the end of the story "Everyday Use"?

At the end
of "," Mama realizes that Maggie is deserving of appreciation and attention and that
Dee is hardly an authority on family matters.  Throughout the story, Mama admits that she has
not paid much attention to Maggie who is quiet and unassuming.  Maggie has lived her life in the
shadow of her younger sister Dee.  But at the end of the story, Maggie proves that she knows the
family's heritage, and she is the one who can remember which uncle whittled the churn and which
uncle whittled the dasher.  Maggie has also learned how to quilt just like her mother and
grandmother, so she is the daughter who will carry on the family's traditions.  Dee, on the
other hand, has always presented as knowledgeable, and certainly her formal education lends to
this image.  Dee never really had true friends, just people who admired her intelligence and
listened to what she had to say.  But at the end of the story, Mama realizes that Dee does not
really want to be a part of the Johnson family and its traditions--she simply wants to make the
family's heritage a spectacle to show her friends.  As a result, Mama opts to turn all her
attention to Maggie and let Dee go back to the life that she has chosen to
live.

What is the exposition, rising action, climax, turning point, resolution, and denouement of Lord of the Flies?

One of the
factors that makes such a gripping novel is 's skillful development of the
story arc. The author's pacing as he moves from , rising action, andto theand resolution is
superb. The story unfolds as follows:

Exposition

Golding
shows rather than tells as the book gets underway. Readers first meetandand, through their
conversations and actions, learn that a group of British schoolboys has been stranded on an
island due to a plane crash. Piggy reveals that an atom bomb fell on London after the boys
escaped, letting the reader assume the time period is a near-future World War III. No adults
have survived. Ralph blows a conch, and the other characters appear, includingMerridew and his
choir boys and a bunch of little ones. After a meeting, Ralph, Jack, andexplore the island,
providing anof the place where the action of the book will occur. By the end of chapter 1,
Golding has introduced readers to the...

Why is the boy being punished in "The Lumber Room"?

The young boy, Nicholas,
is being punished because he refused to eat his milk and bread in the morning because, as he
said, there was a frog in it. Many adults assured him that this was not possible and that there
was no way a frog could be inside his bowl, but he continued to insist upon it. In truth, there
actually was a frog in his bowl of milk and bread because he, himself, had
taken it from the garden and put it there.

This incident proves to the boy
that adults can be "profoundly in error," even when they have expressed absolute
certainty on a subject. One of these adults, the woman who calls herself his aunt though she is
not really a relative of his, actually devised the special trip to the beach at Jagborough so as
to really make Nicholas feel the seriousness of his bad breakfast behaviorbeing barred from
going to the beach is intended to guarantee more favorable behavior from Nicholas in the
future.

He is likewise forbidden to go into the gooseberry garden while his
cousins are gone on their trip. With his "aunt-by-assertion" standing sentry at the
gooseberry garden, Nicholas is free to steal a key to let himself into the lumber room and
explore it at leisure.

Explain The Significance Of The Full Title Of The Play The Importance Of Being Earnest

In the end, with Jack's
famous last line, "Now I know the vital importance of being earnest," he seems to
imply that one only needs to be earnest when it actually suits one's purposes.  Jack was only
accidentally honest.  If he had known his true parentage, this would still
not have satisfied his need to escape his gentleman's life and behave illicitly from time to
time.  Look at his brother, Algernon: he had to invent a permanent invalid named Bunbury just so
he would have an excuse to get out of family engagements.  Therefore, Jack would likely still
have been dishonest.

Furthermore, if Jack had known his true lineage, then he
never would have become Cecily Cardew's ward.  If he had not invented a fictitious brother,
Algernon could not have pretended to be him, and this would have left Jack without his love.  It
is the end that justifies the means in this play, and when all the lies happen to add up to a
truth, the ending results in happiness for everyone.  However, almost
