Abstract
This paper summarized the research literature that examines the effects of alcohol on automatic and controlled memory processes and than proposes a research design that will expand on the previous research. The proposed research utilizes an experimental approach. The research design will determine if there is a dose response relationship between alcohol and memory.

Abstract
The paper touches on Keynesian economic theory as it relates to fiscal stimulus packages and focuses on unemployment benefits as an example of an automatic stabilizer.
From the Paper
"According to an essay written by Carl Walsh and published online by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, automatic stabilizers are a tool used to dampen fluctuations in real GDP without any explicit policy action by the government. The term automatic stabilizer refers to the fact that the stabilizers act without explicit authorization from the Congress or from the President. In addition to automatic stabilizers, the federal government may make discretionary changes in the face of an economic downturn. Expansionary fiscal policies are intended to boost..."

Abstract
The paper discusses how automatic stabilizers work to stabilize an economy through boom and bust periods.
From the Paper
"Automatic stabilizers are systems set up in order to reduce fluctuations in a country's real GDP, both positive and negative, without any overt government action. They are a key part of Keynesian economics. Some of the factors that can destabilize an economy are changes in consumption investment or exports. Changes in these factors have a multiple effect on the aggregate demand curve. The point of an automatic stabilizer is to reduce the multiple of the effect."

Abstract
This paper examines the history of computer modeling and animation in adult computer games over the last two decades. Beginning by providing some needed context on Tom Hudson and Gary Yost (two giants of computer games architecture development), the writer then carefully describes the earliest manifestations of CAD-3D technology. The paper then explains the many achievements of Tom Hudson (and a few others) as he (and they) slowly worked towards 3D Studio (and beyond) and today's contemporary 3Ds Max technology. The paper concludes by looking at what the future holds for 3Ds Max software and for computer games in general.
From the Paper
"In the final analysis, this writer is of the view that the last several versions of the 3Ds Max have been, more or less, expansions upon earlier themes or innovations; they have not been radical departures from the past. Consequently, the future will probably continue to see the same linear progression while those who enjoy playing computer games will find themselves confronted with entertainment that features more in-depth narratives, more complicated story lines, and more arresting visual imagery; in effect, adult users of adult computer games will be basically "playing" movies - with themselves as the directors."

Abstract
The paper discusses how computer interface design has developed into a discipline that has moved from simply providing the means for the user to access programs and accomplish tasks on the computer to a discipline that considers every aspect of the experience of using the computer. The paper explains that ease of use has always been a goal, making the interface between user and computer easy to learn and easy to use, and fields such as ergonomics are also included so that the operation of the computer is as comfortable and painless as possible. The paper relates that the term interface first meant only the hardware and software through which the human being and the computer could communicate, but it has come to include the cognitive and emotional aspects of the user's experience as well.

Abstract
This paper discusses the current trend of computer hacking and cracking. The paper explains the difference between a computer hacker and a computer cracker and offers modern day situations that involve computer cracking.
From the Paper
"A computer hacker is a person interested in exploring a closed computer system. A cracker is a term coined by computer hackers to describe an individual that is intent on doing harm during his or her unlawful invasion of a closed computer system. Angela Gunn describes the differences between crackers and hackers this way: Hackers poke into systems to find out how they work. Crackers break into systems to raise hell."

Abstract
This paper explains that, during the 1960s, IBM entered the computer field with a technological impressiveness 'mini super computer', into a market dominated by Apple Computer Inc. and Tandy Corporation's Radio Shack Division. The author points out that, due to wrong strategic choices, IBM's share in the personal computer market had been eroding until finally, in 2005, IBM had to exit the business by selling out to Lenovo, which is a Chinese company, getting a share of the equity in return. The paper states that today, the most important question in the industry is whether or not the Chinese Lenovo will be able to succeed in the personal computer market in the same way that IBM did years ago.
From the Paper
"In addition, it is facing mounting threats and challenges from the various other competitors in the market, and several analysts have in fact been issuing warnings to the company about this. Gartner has warned that they would be forced to launch a campaign in which significant 'cost cutting' methods would be analyzed and implemented, so that they would be able to face the growing threats from Dell and from IBM, and Lenovo, with some ease. Today, HP is one of the leading manufacturers of IT hardware in the world, and its sales figures show that in the first quarter of the year 2005, it had sales of about $13.5 billions. However, state experts, this may not be sufficient enough for Hewlett Packard to be able to keep up its current position of unchallenged leader, and it may have to step down for its competitors."

Abstract
This creative paper writes as if it is the year 2027 and discusses issues of anti-terrorism, politics, education, environment and so many more topics, which are also currently of interest. The paper is in the form of a letter written from a son to his father and describes New York after WWIII. The paper writes about transportation after the war, laws put into effect as a result of the war, New York's appearance and the fact that Israel and Iran both no longer exist.
From the Paper
"It's almost ironic how much the current trend of family-shared Internet entertainment now plays such a similar role to that of radios in the home almost a full century ago. Kids have the choice of doing their own thing on their own connections, and when people get together in person, it's much more often to hang out at each other's homes than to actually go out anywhere the way people used to flock to clubs. Everybody still dates or they just "hook up" but mostly through their connections from home."
