Abstract
This paper looks at the legal liability of physicians and allied healthcare workers, emphasizing what it means to their practice. It also discusses the effect of managed care on allied healthcare workers. The paper comes out in favor of the workers being in situations that decrease the possibility of error, such as shorter hours.

From the Paper
"A pharmacist might be held liable for negligence if they dispensed the wrong medication to a patient or the wrong dosage of a medication. Studies show that many more of these types of mistakes are being made because pharmacists are required to work long hours. (Jaret) Massachusetts pharmacists for instance are believed to fill ... million prescriptions inappropriately each year. More than ... Americans die each year as a result of adverse drug reactions. The way to avoid such mistakes is to limit the number of hours a pharmacist..."

Abstract
This paper first relates that historians are unable to explain Hitler's failure to finish off the remaining British Expeditionary Force (BEF) during the his early wehrmacht of Europe and consider this hesitation to be one of the mistakes that allowed the eventual Allied victory. Next, the author describes Operation Overlord, the landing on Normandy. This paper underscores that, although Operation Overlord was a tremendous success, the Allied armies suffer 100,000 casualties just in the next six weeks in the breakout from Normandy into Nazi-occupied France and the intense battles that followed across Europe for nearly another full year were equally important to the eventual liberation of Europe in 1945.

Conclusion

From the Paper
"As preparations neared combat readiness for Operation Overlord, Allied counterintelligence units even went so far as to float the corpse of a soldier outfitted in a high-ranking uniform and equipped with fabricated plans for an invasion of the Calais, in many way, the most logical invasion point because of its geographical proximity to the
English coast. Likewise, American aircraft steadily increased their
bombardment of Calais to simulate pre-invasion operations in preparation for the actual landings planned for June 4, 1940. Severe weather required a postponement to June 6th."

Abstract
This paper discusses how the success of the allies in World War II hinged on the defeat of its two greatest opposing forces. The key to success relied upon debilitating and disabling the German army and the Japanese army. The paper shows how the weakening of the German army at the Battle of Kursk and the weakening of the Japanese army at the Battle of Midway were two of the key battles responsible for turning the tides to the Allied forces' favor in World War II. The similarities and differences of these two decisive battles are the focus of the research.

From the Paper
"It can be said that just because one loses the battle, it doesn't mean that they have lost the war. In most cases this is true. However, one battle can mean a such defeat for one side that it changes the entire course of the rest of the war. This was the case in the Battle of Midway. The Battle of Midway took place from June 4-7, 1942. Prior to the Battle of Midway, Japanese forces were on the offensive capturing and securing massive territories throughout the Pacific Rim and Asia (NHC, 2002). Midway Island lies in the middle of the Pacific Ocean half way between the United States and Japan. It is a key refueling and strategic supply point for long runs across the Pacific Ocean. Control of Midway Island was a key factor to the offensive position of the Japanese. It was also important defensively as a key to preventing the Japanese invasion of Hawaii."

Abstract
This paper traces the history of the case of "Christophersen vs. Allied-Signal" to the point in which the appellate court had to evaluate the issue of a specific physician's testimony (Dr. Miller). Next, the author delineates the Federal Rules of Evidence, which sets the standard by which the testimony of an expert is admissible, and indicates that the court in this case upheld the integrity of Rule 703. The paper concludes that the lesson of this case is that the determination of the acceptability of expert witnesses not only based on having sufficient qualifications but also on the manner in which they must conduct themselves; however, the author contends there still remains some vagueness around this issue.

From the Paper
"The district court relied on Rule 703, pertaining to the witness' methodology, to exclude Dr. Miller's testimony. Dr. Miller's testimony was in fact based on interview with a co-worker of Mr. Christophersen. There was little other research done by Dr. Miller and his work was not consistent with methods normally used by oncologists or pathologists, given that he was neither. The appellate court thereby rules that the district court was not manifestly erroneous and did not err in granting summary judgment."

Abstract
The following paper discusses how both America and the former Soviet Union contributed to the Allied war effort in important ways - albeit their contributions differed markedly. Chiefly, the U.S.'s greatest contribution was its industrial output while the USSR's greatest contribution came in the form of its citizens sacrificing heroically in the face of incredible deprivations and suffering.

From the Paper
"The thesis of the following paper is that, while both America and the former Soviet Union contributed to the Allied war effort in important ways, their contributions differed markedly. Chiefly, the U.S.'s greatest contribution was its industrial output while the USSR's greatest contribution came in the form of its citizens sacrificing heroically in the face of incredible deprivations and suffering. Paper Outline: the paper will begin first by examining the U.S. Lend-Lease program which kept the Soviet Union afloat during the bleakest days of the Second World War - largely because this program underscores the important war-time relationship between the two nations. From there, the paper will look at the contributions of the..."

Abstract
The paper argues that the Allies' victory in the Second World War in Europe was due to a lack of preparation in the German military, industry and economy, American industrial and economic might and Russian military and industrial transformations.

From the Paper
"Germany's industry, economy and military were prepared neither for a long war nor a war fought over vast distances. At the outbreak of the war, Germany's industry was far from being what could be considered one of total-war. It is hard to calculate with any precision the level of military production Germany could have fielded at the start of the war. However, the fact that between 1941 and 1944 Germanys tripled its production of tanks and aircraft indicates that Germany was not making full military use of its industry. Indeed Britain, being smaller but more efficient, was able to produce more arms than Germany in almost every category up until 1943. Further evidence of German industry's lack of preparation comes with that fact that it was not until 1943 that Hitler ordered the country to transform into a state of total-war. (milward, german economy, p.106). Although the German military was prepared for a short blitzkrieg-like war it was unsuited to the long-rand and drawn-out war that the Second World War became."

Abstract
On 6 June 1944, more than 6,000 fighting ships and transport vessels began from ports in Britain for the French shores. More than 11,000 aircraft dropped countless bombs on the beaches of Normandy. Airborne assault forces went into action joined by the marines. Thus began the longest day, or the landing of the American Forces on the eastern coast of the European continent, which was northeast France. By the end of the day, some 100,000 soldiers and officers of the Allied armies gathered on the beaches of Normandy and proceeded to progress up the beach into enemy territory. This opened the second front in Western Europe (Hoyt, 175).

Abstract
This paper presents a report to Assistant Secretary of War, John J. McCloy with the aim of evaluating options and recommendation regarding the proposed bombing of Auschwitz. The paper discusses the implications of the discovery of Auschwitz, the Nazi death camp in Southern Poland, and devises three possible courses of action and recommendations of the optimal resolution for the situation.

Table of Contents:
Executive Summary
Option I: Use Conventional Bombing: Target Gas Chambers and Crematorium
Option II: Use Dive-Bombing: Target Gas Chambers and Crematorium
Recommendation: Do not Engage in Bombing Auschwitz

From the Paper
"The decision not to bomb Auschwitz will have obvious backlash throughout the free world because by not bombing it seems as though the Allies do not value the lives of the prisoners at Auschwitz enough. Large backlashes can be expected from the Jewish community especially . To make amends the Allies must seek a swift liberation of death camps like Auschwitz, a decisive defeat of the German War Machine, and a post-war world without Nazi ideologies.
"The recommendation of this advisory board is to halt plans of bombing Auschwitz and instead reroute resources and manpower in a way that ensures the fastest possible defeat of the Germany."

From the Paper
"In the history of the Second World War, Munich is a name that carries powerful connotations. It was in Munich that Adolf Hitler launched the abortive Beer-Hall Putscht, his abortive first attempt at power. A decade and a half later, in September of 1938, Hitler had been in power for six years, and Munich became the site of even a more powerfully symbolic event. Here, the Western allied powers faced their last potential decision point short of the one which would confront them with the invasion of Poland a year later.

Hitler demanded the right to occupy the Sudetenland, a region of western Czechoslovakia that had a largely German-speaking population. The Czechs were prepared to resist, but despite a fairly powerful army they lacked the means to do so entirely alone. The question was whether the Western Allies.."

Abstract
This proposal provides tentative source material for a larger paper aimed at answering the question of whether or not Canada was a loyal ally to the US during the Cold War - especially during the first 30 or so years of the conflict. The paper highlights the fears of Canadian leaders about losing sovereignty and also captures the willingness of Canadian decision-makers to diverge from the US lead. The paper shows how Canada was a fairly loyal ally - but one determined to carve its own path.

From the Paper
"Part I: Historical Significance, major historiographical debates, and main argument of paper. The historical significance of this issue should be obvious. Firstly, if we are to understand the current nature of the Canada/US relationship, we must understand that relationship against the backdrop of history; in other words, how has the Canada/US relationship been throughout the course of the "modern" age? Further, given as Russia has indicated a renewed willingness to return to the suspicious days of the Cold War, knowing the..."
