Abstract
This paper compares and contrasts the modern management philosophies of Chester Barnard and John Adair. The paper also touches briefly on prior theories of management similar to that of both Barnard and Adair. In addition, the paper provides a detailed understanding of the evolution of management thought and philosophy.

From the Paper
"According to Adair, a manager's responsibilities were to establish, agree, and communicate standards of performance and behavior. The manager was responsible for monitoring and maintaining discipline, ethics, and integrity while focusing on objectives. Adair's philosophy was action-based, focusing on the goal of the organization or the group as a whole. The main difference in Barnard's philosophy from Adair was that Barnard's focus appeared to be individual based, rather than on based on the organizational as a whole. In Adair's theory, and the theories that it was based on, the role of the manager included assessing and changing as necessary the balance and composition of the group. Barnard focused on the individual moral influences that an individual encountered and that motivated them personally. That is most likely the central difference between both management philosophies."

Abstract
This paper provides Chapter One of a proposed case study on George Barnard Shaw's "Mrs. Warren's Profession" and Bertolt Brecht's "The Good Woman of Setzuan", that provides a background of the study and the proposed topic, aims and objectives, significance of study, theoretical framework used, and definition of key terms.

From the Paper
"This chapter will provide an overview of the case study project focusing on two works of drama; George Bernard Shaw's "Mrs Warren's Profession" and Bertolt Brecht's "The Good Woman of Setzuan". The main issue to be explored is one that is common to both of these literary works. In societies dominated by men, the morality of women is dictated by patriarchy and economics. Both authors also explore if it..."

Abstract
When Beech-Nut was found to have marketed apple juice that contained virtually no apple juice, the scandal caused the company long-term damage. More importantly, perhaps, the actions of the managers at Beech-Nut were called into question, and this case study examines their motivations and the corporate culture that allowed the incident to happen. A summary of the research is provided in the conclusion.

From the Paper
"In an episode of the popular animated television series, "The Simpson's," Mayor Qwimby is outraged to find that Fat Tony and his gang have been supplying rat milk to the schoolchildren of Springfield as part of a kickback scheme. Mayor Qwimby's reaction: "Rats? You promised me dog or higher!" This particular episode may well have been in response to the plight Beech-Nut's leadership, Niels L. Hoyvald and John F. Lavery, found themselves in when they were indicted and convicted for selling "apple juice" which was in reality nothing more than water, sugar, coloring and flavorings. Parents were outraged and James Traub says the Beech-Nut baby-food scandal "is a case study in the warping effects of blind corporate loyalty.""

Abstract
This paper provides an analysis of chapter 21 of "Great Expectations" English author, Charles Dickens. The paper shows that in this chapter it is apparent that Pip feels somewhat uncomfortable at his first introduction to London; he is unused to the environment, having had a rather sheltered upbringing in a small town and is clearly disappointed at his first experience of the place. Quotes from the novel are used throughout the paper.

From the Paper
"The frightening response "you may get cheated, robbed, and murdered, in London" would have done nothing to reassure Pip and improve his images of the place. This conversation also serves as a reminder of the theme of crime and punishment that runs throughout the novel, which is also shown later in Pip's words "I opened the staircase window" the lines had rotted away, and it came down like the guillotine?. Pip's later actions "I was still looking sideways at his block of a face in search of any encouraging note to the text" also portray Pip as eager to be sociable, accepted."

Abstract
This essay focuses on the vegetarian aspects of the Atkins diet, specifically the consequences of this diet on vegetarians. The paper discusses how the the diet is a successful option for meat eaters who wish to loose weight within a short period of time but could be potentially detrimental to vegetarians. The paper focuses on how a vegetarians can accomplish the induction period of the diet, and the problems that vegetarians face attempting low-carbohydrate diets, which omnivores do not have to worry about. It illustrate some of the better known consequences of this diet from scientific findings, opinions of those who have tried it and from personal experience. The paper concludes with some ideas of how a better diet could be created for vegetarians who do wish to lose weight using some of the basics of the science found in the Atkins diet.

From the Paper
"To be on the Atkins diet involves an induction period of two weeks. In this initial two weeks, which is known as the "kick start" to the diet, the dieter is to take in less then 20 grams of carbohydrates a day. This means absolutely no wheat or grain products, no sugar or candy of any kind, and no fruit, just to name of few of the product groups forbidden during induction. The scientific purpose of induction includes, breaking certain food addictions, making the switch within your body from carbohydrate burning to fat burning, as well as stabilizing the body's blood sugar levels. "The name Induction signifies that its purpose is to induce weight loss by changing your body's chemistry so that you will achieve lipolysis and the secondary process of ketosis." The rules of induction are fairly simple, and the basics are eat regular meals, eat liberally, and watch for hidden carbohydrates. Most importantly it suggests following the acceptable food lists provided by Dr. Atkins."
