Abstract
This paper examines how trust is developed or formed, what results when trust is not formed and finally, what results when trust is violated. The paper looks at two types of trust, known as calculus-based trust and identification-based trust. The paper reviews several studies and concludes that trust, although it is intangible, is crucially important in relationships with any depth and commitment.

Summary and Conclusion

From the Paper
"Some individuals trust very easily, and often far too easily which results in others taking advantage of their vulnerability while other individuals rarely trust others and only manage to extend trust after a firm foundation has been laid to base that trust upon. While violation of trust between casual relationships may not result in a complete breakdown of the relationship and it may be able to continue on some level the violation of trust between two individuals who are intimately close often results in a breakdown leaving a chasm far too wide to cross and at best takes much time, effort and willingness for trust to re-established and this may only result if the victim of the violation has the willingness to do so."

Abstract
The paper relates that Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) is founded on the principle that evidence is applied from a scientific method to medical practice. The paper discusses how EBM assesses the evidence to its quality in being an intervention in treatment. The paper relates that there are times when EBM dictates that there is no treatment necessary; "Evidence-based medicine is the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients" according to the Center for Evidence Based Medicine (Glasziou, n.d.). The paper further explains that EBM recognizes the many aspects of patient care that are based on judgment rather than scientific evidence, and an example of a judgment in EBM is the quality of life and value of life judgment for the terminally ill.

Abstract
This paper defines community-based policing and further shows how these programs can be implemented. A brief description of the traditional model of a law enforcement organization is presented. The author argues that this model has failed and cites research to support his argument. Community-based policing is suggested as a workable and positive alternative. The paper describes the specific training needed to implement community-based policing programs.

From the Paper
"Law enforcement agencies have by tradition been structured as top-down, para-military organizations. Employees, sworn and civilian have been given limited autonomy and authority in these traditionally structured organizations. Although the conventional police organization structures allowed for greater control and accountability for employees, many politician and police leaders are incapable of responding to the new and changing demands that society make on law enforcement agencies see this organizational structure. In an effort to reduce crime and the fear of crime in their communities, many law enforcement agencies have embraced the philosophy of Community Based Policing. This policing philosophy emphasis the need for employees to use problem solving and the utilization of community resources to resolve community identified problems, reduce crime and the fear of crime."

Abstract
The paper discusses how school systems' performance based assessments are becoming more significant because they provide the teacher with the ability to evaluate learning on an individual basis and structure the curriculum to meet the learning needs of students more effectively. The paper explains that this is true in both the TESOL learning environment, as well as in general education. However, the paper notes that it is apparent that performance based assessments have the ability of leading to both positive and negative outcomes and these outcomes are dependent on the teacher's capability to comprehend the factors that must be present in the creation and implementation of performance based assessments.

From the Paper
"Wangsatortanakhun (n.d.) describes performance based assessment as "a dynamic process calling for students to be active participants" (sec. 1). In school systems, performance based assessments are becoming more significant because they provide the teacher with the ability to evaluate learning on an individual basis and structure the curriculum to meet the learning needs of students more effectively. This is true in both the TESOL learning environment, as well as in general education. However, it is apparent that performance based assessments have the ability of leading..."

From the Paper
"The Author's Perspective: Activity Based Management Activity Based Management for Service Industries, Government Entities and Non-Profit Organizations focuses on providing information to managers that is vital to modern business concerned with cost management. The book discusses Activity Based Systems (ABS) that examine company profits in relation to activities generated by the organization. This process blends into the concept of Activity Based Costing (ABC), which allows management to comprehend profits that are derived from products currently in the market. As these elements are focused upon, Activity Based Management (ABM) then proceeds to determine which factors contributing to the organization are effective, and where costs can be reduced through Activity Based Budgeting (ABB). Proper budgeting through this system allows managers to plan the finances of the organization in a manner that will align the company with the competition, and provide for a stronger economic future (Brimson & Antos)."

Abstract
This paper argues that Johnson & Johnson is a prime example of a company directed by "virtue ethics." As evidenced by the Tylenol crises, J&J executives do not resort to a moral calculus (Utilitarianism) or a deontological (rule-based) method of ethical decision making (Kant). The paper evaluates the company in terms of corporate control devices, stakeholder theory, the CSR pyramid, Kohlberg's theory of moral development and ethical theory.

From the Paper
"When all was said and done the recall of Tylenol* alone cost Johnson & Johnson over $100 million. Prior to the crisis, Tylenol held a 37% market share, outselling its four nearest competitors combined. Within weeks after the crisis its market share had dropped to 7%. When asked about the future of Tylenol, Madison Avenue guru Jerry Della Femina told a New York Times reporter "I don't think they (J&J) can ever sell another product under that name.""
