Abstract
This paper reviews reusable software components. According to the paper, reusable software components provide methods and techniques for structuring applications which are similar parts that share a characteristic element that can be utilized in creating more than one program or system in building different software applications. In other words, reusable software components encapsulates functionality where multiple occurrences of the components are usable at the same time while modifying it to fit a present application.

From the Paper
"Components are software modules that facilitates binary reuse, and their primary characteristic is that they can be "plugged in" together to build applications, that is, without the need for recompilation (Frakes, 1995). Component based development uses a data exchange model, tools, structured storage, and an underlying object model to construct applications from pre-existing components.
Some of the reusable components are developed in-house, and others may belong to libraries or toolkit. For an instance, a reusable software components uses interchangeable parts from other industries for software construction like communicating objects is embedding a spreadsheet within a word processor document, and a chart program within the spreadsheet; a single button in a graphical user interface, a small interest calculator, an interface to a database manager."

Abstract
This paper reviews the research methodology of a study described in an article from the "American Journal of Psychology" by Ronald T.Kellogg, 'Working Memory Components in Written Sentence Generation. The paper explains that Kellogg designed his study to evaluate if planning conceptual representations and linguistically encoding them into words and sentences depends on working memory. The paper explains the two phases of the project, which concluded that a heavy load on working memory impacted students' sentence generation skills. The paper then describes a second study that will be modeled after Kellogg's study and will look at how a heavy load" on working memory impacted students' mathematical skills.

From the Paper
"After the 10 trials, students will be given a visual memory trial on their screen just prior to the mathematical task. As Kellogg previously discerned that a six-digit memory task was considered a "heavy load," students will be asked to remember a series of six digits. They will have 7 seconds to memorize the digits, before the mathematical trials will begin. Students will complete the mathematical trials, after which they will see a series of six dots. Students will type the digits from the memory trial, replacing each of the dots."

Abstract
This paper relates the importance and need for in-store security at sporting goods stores, not only to prevent customer and employee thefts, but also for secure transactions for online sales as well. The author uses Bass Pro Shop Inc, a retail sporting goods store as an example and provides a review of the relevant peer-reviewed, scholarly and online organizational resources to identify, detail, and outline security components that will, can, and are currently being used in a Bass Pro Shop outlet, with both catalog and on-line sales.

From the Paper
"Today, many Americans are becoming increasingly obese as a result of hanges in lifestyle that have contributed to more sedentary habits at work and play. These trends make the continuing success of sporting goods companies such as Bass Pro Shops all the more intriguing and worthy of study. One of the biggest challenges facing such retail growth industries is the need for in-store security to prevent customer and employee theft, as well as to ensure secure transactions for their online catalog sales. This paper provides a review of the relevant peer-reviewed, scholarly and online organizational resources to identify, detail, and outline security components that will, can, and are currently being used in a retail sporting goods store, a Bass Pro Shop outlet, with both catalog and on-line sales. A summary of the research and important findings are presented in the conclusion."

Abstract
This paper explores and defines the basic components of Structural Family Therapy according to Salvador Minuchin, author of "Families and Family Therapy". Literary reviews and critiques of Minuchin's book and model for family therapy are also discussed.

From the Paper
"Times have changed, for the good, in the view Minuchin expresses in Psychology Today (Minuchin, 1993). He saw a sign that Americans are no longer stigmatized by "family therapy" through the election of the Bill Clinton / Al Gore administration in 1992. ?At the Democratic Convention, Vice President Gore said that his family was in family therapy without fear or concern that such a statement reflects a deficit, that something is missing.? Of course, the Clinton Administration's scandals made better headlines and fodder for gossip than the positive things accomplished in those years, and yet Minuchin was correct in saying that barriers and stigmas regarding "family therapy" have been broken down, and that, along with the proven family solutions found within SFT, is a very good thing."

Abstract
This paper examines the process of extracting essential oils from plants, in particular, Neroli. The author explains the key concerns in this process, the characteristics of the oil and the characteristics of the plant. Noting that citrus plants produce three different oils in different parts of the plant, the author cautions that different methods need to be used to produce the different oils. The paper explains the uses of Neroli and comments on the cost and economic factors governing the price of this essential oil extracted from the bitter orange tree.

From the Paper
"Labor is the most costly aspect of Neroli and Orange Blossom Water. However, the market for the products is high and continues to grow, especially as a gourmet food additive. As McMahon points out, there is justification for the argument that higher priced oils are superior in this case, due to shortcuts taken by producers in low priced years. Steam distillation is the preferred method and produces the highest quantity and quality of oils. The hydrosol and oil keep best under refrigeration, as the oils remain volatile in their distilled state."

Abstract
This paper explains why three elements described in this document, discussion of the evaluation procedure, discipline and suspension programs, and opportunities for professional growth and development, are vital to the successful outcome and achievement of both teachers and students in the school district.

From the Paper
"All teachers in the school system must be evaluated on at minimum an annual basis. They may be evaluated by a supervisor, principal or other District member who is assigned a level of authority over the teacher. Evaluations are critical because they provide instructors with feedback vital to their livelihood and success as a model instructor in the classroom. In a situation where a teacher is performing at an unsatisfactory level, the performance evaluation allows opportunity for improvement. In the event that a teacher is performing satisfactorily, the performance review process provides an opportunity for encouragement and personal development."

Abstract
This paper uses textbook, novel, and film to take a look at how the American criminal justice system deals with and affects those found guilty of criminal acts and whether this system is affected by race and systemic racial biases.

From the Paper
"It is often alleged that the criminal justice system has unjustly persecuted individuals whom are members of minority groups, based solely upon their minority status. Advocates of this point of view, according to Chapter 19 of T.R. Clear and Cole's textbook American Corrections, cite jury's disproportionate tendency to convict minorities, as well as to impose more lengthy and weighty sentences upon defendants who are minorities. This presumption often suggests that the defendant in question must be innocent, or is only a cog in the wheel of a much larger crime machine. But what transpires when indeed a defendant is guilty and is indeed a member of a gang or crime family? Does race and systemic racial biases still come into play in such instances?"

From the Paper
"To the modern person many of the claims made by the writers of medieval travel literature seem completely outlandish and impossible to believe. The truth is, however, we have a society that has been pretty much isolated from contact with the majority of the world for a fairly long period of time. The peasants of these small hamlets would never venture outside their village for their entire life. Generation after generation of these people tilled the same soil and lived in the same home for hundreds of years and never saw anything even the slightest bit out of the ordinary for these incredibly prolonged periods of time. Therefore, when the first crusaders returned from the east describing things such as camels or travelers to India describing elephants and other such animals that are not normally found in Europe, we have the medieval persons idea of their world being changed dramatically. If such incredible creatures can exist, then why not the people with one gigantic foot that they use to shade themselves from the sun, as represented in the most important Travel literature of the period, the writings of Sir John Mandeville."
