Abstract
This paper defines emphatic accuracy as the part of emotional intelligence that enables a person to understand accurately other people's thoughts and feelings. Empathic accuracy is believed to be missing among men who commit sexual harassment. Next, the author relates the process of addressing sexual harassment in the workplace. The paper concludes that programs that train the offender to develop a better degree of empathic accuracy can restore the person to the workplace instead of having to discharge him or her.

Summary and Conclusion

From the Paper
"The investigator who hears the case will be responsible for notification of the "accused individual's supervisor about the complaint." The supervisor may or may not choose to place the accused individual on leave and this will be done only for the purpose of avoiding a conflict pending the investigation outcome. The accused individual who chooses to participate in the investigation should be required to submit a written response to the complaint within seven working days of the receipt of the complaint. A copy of the written response should be provided to the individual who filed the complaint."

Abstract
The paper provides a description of the actual events dramatized in the movie "Valkyrie", namely, Colonel Count Claus von Stauffenberg's failed attempt to kill Hitler with explosives hidden in a briefcase, July 20, 1944. The paper offers details about the life and conspiracies of von Stauffenberg, explains the term "Valkyrie" and looks at the aftermath of this operation's failure. The paper compares these events to the movie and points out several inaccuracies, however, the paper makes it clear that these inaccuracies do not ruin the historical accuracy of the movie. The writer of this paper even posits that he was surprised at the accuracy of "Valkyrie", given that it seems so many movies dramatize so much that the original story is somewhat lost.

From the Paper
"At approximately 12:30 p.m. on July 20, 1944, Colonel Count Claus von Stauffenberg excused himself from a military conference held by Adolf Hitler at his "Wolfsschanze" (Wolf's Lair) field operations center in Prussia. He proceeded to the restroom, produced a one kilogram block of plastic explosives from his briefcase, and crushed the pencil detonator with a pair of pliers. The detonator was a thin copper tube which contained acid. The acid, after von Stauffenberg crushed the tube, would take about ten minutes to eat through a wire holding back the firing pin from detonating the explosive.
"He quickly put the explosives back in his briefcase when an aide summoned him back to the conference. He placed the briefcase under the massive conference table near Hitler and in the proximity of 20 other officers attending the conference. After about five minutes, he made an excuse and left the room.
"At exactly 12:40 the high-powered plastic explosives detonated, totally demolishing the conference table and the entire conference room. Several officers were killed. Hitler survived. The reason was that one of the officers in attendance had moved von Stauffenberg's briefcase to the other side of a heavy leg of the table because he kept nudging it with his foot. The leg of the table deflected the blast away from Hitler, who was only slightly injured."

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses the various methods of data input. The paper takes a look at the accuracy, convenience and quality of these methods of data input, focusing primarily on the accuracy of each.

From the Paper
"When dealing with printed questionnaires, keyboard entry is the best choice for data input. Unlike handwriting, which most of the times is unclear and therefore severely affects the accuracy of data input, the keyboard method avoids uncertainty. Among this method's advantages, one of the most important is that most people are familiar with using keyboards and with the key's layouts, so there is no or little training required for using keyboards. Also, an optical mark recognizer can be used. Optical mark recognition is a fast and accurate data input method that basically refers to capturing data by contrast reflectivity at predetermined positions on a page. This data input method presents several advantages, like the wide range of application. It can be applied for community surveys, consumer surveys, tests and assessments, evaluations and feedback, data compilation, product evaluation, inventory counts, membership subscription forms, and other printed material. Also, the optical mark recognizer identifies rapidly the answers marked by users and calculates scores. However, this method has its disadvantages also: it is not suitable for large amounts of text, or some data can be lost in the scanning process. "

Abstract
This paper briefly discusses how although "Glory" may not be one hundred percent accurate, but it does portray a real, fighting unit of the Civil War, and it shows how brave the men of the 54th were, and how dedicated to serving their country. The paper concludes that the historical accuracy of the film is not as important as the actual making and viewing of the film. and how it is important for all Americans to recognize the ways blacks served during the Civil War, and how hard they fought to gain the freedom for all blacks in the country.

From the Paper
"The film was created to entertain and inform, as most films are, and it was not created with the intention of being entirely historically accurate. That would be just about impossible in just about any film. It was created to dramatize and highlight the service of the Massachusetts 54th and other units like them, at a time when there was little known about the black soldiers of the Civil War. In addition, the producers and writers took some situations and dramatized them to make the film more meaningful and memorable. The whipping scene is one of those situations. Whipping was banned in the Army, and Shaw does not seem like the kind of person that would use that punishment, anyway. However, it showed how blacks were treated by their owners at the time, and it helped add drama to the film. It may not have been historically accurate, but it did have a purpose."

Abstract
This paper discusses Jonathan Swift's 1729 essay, "A Modest Proposal" which is a satirical critique of the British Empire's viewpoint in the population of Ireland. Swift's historical accuracy is questioned in relation to the science of population demographics instituted in the late seventeenth century. The paper also argues that the multiple claims about the Irish population's worth by the British are pejorative and unethical .

From the Paper
"In 1729, Irish writer Jonathan Swift wrote a satirical pamphlet entitled "A Modest Proposal" in which he outlined his suggestions for "Preventing the Children of Poor People in Ireland from Becoming a Burden to Their Parents or Country, and for Making Them Beneficial to the Public." In his essay, Swift "recommends" that approximately one-hundred thousand children of the poorest families in Ireland sell their children at one year old in order to become food for those individuals and families who can afford the proposed price of ten shillings per child. Swift insists that this system..."

Abstract
This paper highlights the importance of ensuring that all data input to a system is error-free. The paper points out that, as the uses for data expand and as the amount of data input increases, the need for accuracy of input also increases. The paper then provides recommendations for optimal methods of data input for several different situations.

From the Paper
"Computer systems, software, and applications are basically created to provide efficiency in accomplishing a task. If the data used by a system is inaccurate, what help and sense will a computer system provide to its users? Accuracy of data input is important because data is considered as the life of a successful system operation. Jack Olson has the following view on the importance of data. Such importance provides the reason why accuracy of data input is similarly important."

Abstract
"The Grapes of Wrath,? by John Steinbeck, tells the story of the fictional Joad family and their journey from Oklahoma to California during the 1930s. Though the family is fictitious, Steinbeck utilizes the characters to create a startling and very real simulation of the life of the average family during the Depression. The paper compares the occurrences and economical conditions of the novel to those which truly existed during the 1930s. The paper explains that Steinbeck created "The Grapes of Wrath" not merely as a story, but as a historical and social document of the lives of migrant workers during the Depression as well.

From the Paper
"John Steinbeck chose to keep his novel "The Grapes of Wrath" as historically accurate as possible. According to John Steinbeck's Biography by Donne E. Florence, Steinbeck wrote the novel to express his disapproval for America's social ills during the 1930's, sympathizing with the plights of the migrant workers and their families. His goal was to condemn the treatment of America's migrant workers and to show everyone how though their lives were because of corporations. He also wanted to show that the migrant workers were just as humane as any other person, and that all they were trying to do was survive in a society dead-set against them. Another reason for Steinbeck's accuracy in his novel was the result of his experience as a newspaper reporter, which allowed him to see first-hand the difficult lives of the migrants during his visits to labor camps. Accuracy was also important to Steinbeck because he wanted his book to be more than a story; he wanted it to be a social document as well."

Abstract
This paper analyzes what makes a quality historical movie. The analysis focuses on authenticity and accuracy, and the paper includes why it is difficult to render historical authenticity and accuracy in the case of particular personages and/or events.

From the Paper
"The production of historical film requires a number of considerations in order to be considered a great historical film with respect to accuracy. From authenticity to avoiding inventions added for their own sake, producing a great historical film requires more than producing a merely successful narrative film. Films like "The Birth of a Nation" and "Gone with the Wind" may be considered great films about the Civil War but they are prevented from being considered great historical films because they are not historically accurate."

Abstract
This paper explains that Nobel Prize-winning playwright Wole Soyinka in his play "Death and the King's Horseman" writes about a 1946 controversial event in the Nigerian city of Oyo in which British officials stopped a tribal chief from committing a ritualistic suicide. Next, the author relates these events depicted in the play as compared to these events as recorded historically. The paper concludes that this play is very historically accurate and touches on many of the beliefs and traditions of both the Yoruban and British people.

From the Paper
"When Olunde decides to kill himself in place of his father, American readers might have a hard time understand why a British-educated medical student would do such a thing. However, a look at Yoruba history would reveal that Olunde would never abandon his culture for another culture. The Yoruba people wanted to learn from other cultures to strengthen their own but did not want to change their culture. Therefore, despite his education, Olunde still believed strongly that his father had a major responsibility and that he needed to maintain his family's honor."
