From the Paper
"This paper examines some of the reasons why pilots take deliberate actions to ground their planes thereby endangering themselves any passengers and the craft. When we hear about the grounding of an airplane ,we are likely to think first about mechanical problems with the aircraft or adverse weather conditions or in our post era about sabotage. However, there are also instances in which a pilot while in control of the aircraft experiences excluding situations such as when a pilot accidentally presses a lever because he or she ..."

Abstract
This paper discusses athlete training. The paper details the practice of using deliberate play and deliberate practice concepts in training sessions and explains how these concepts allow the coach to incorporate the athlete's feelings and thoughts into situations involving the game. The paper also cites studies that show how this method can influence athletes' perception of the practices and training they receive.
From the Paper
" Both concepts consider the athlete's desires as well as the supportive role of the parents and coaches in assisting the athletes in obtaining those desires. The coaches are called upon to provide the athletes with the resources including training such as skill training, conditioning, team concepts, and positioning theories. The parents offer a supportive role as well, oftentimes becoming the sounding box for the athletes that can be both negative and positive in feedback.
"Deliberate play begins when the athletes are young and requires training at a rate of 2-5 hours per week. The training time increases through the years until approximately a decade later the athletes are practicing at a rate of 25 - 30 hours per week. Each stage incorporated into deliberate play is defined in a certain manner. These distinct stages of development include different types of activities through the early years, middle years, later years and maintenance years. The activities are mainly focused on deliberate activities used to ensure the athlete is progressing. This concept also states that the hours of practice should have direct results and a corresponding improvement in the performance level of the athlete."

Abstract
This paper describes three companies in three different sectors that are pursuing a deliberate strategy and three that are pursuing an emergent strategy. The first part of the paper looks at examples of deliberate strategy, whereby the decisions are initiated from within a company and accord with the company's intrinsic goals. The paper then explores three companies that use emergent strategy, where the company continually shifts its strategy in line with the market's needs.
From the Paper
"An apparel company that is currently using an emergent strategy is Vans, which is continually shifting its strategy. In the arena of youth fashion in which Vans operates, producing shoes as well a clothes for the segment of the youth market that associates itself with skateboarding, being the "in" label is the most important thing. It is the most important thing for the company but it is also the most important thing for those who wear Vans products. There is actually relatively little that a company can do to guarantee this "in" status: Such a designation as being in is made by the young men (and some very few young women) who identify with this brand."

Abstract
This paper examines the history of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution and how it has evolved inside the judicial system into the right to preventive healthcare within the prison setting. The author studies diseases such as viral hepatitis and how the justice system has dealt with this disease. This paper discusses human papillomavirus (HPV) and how it can be compared to viral hepatitis types B and C. The author concludes that the standard of deliberate indifference to health care needs in women's prisons requires the United State's justice system to immunize women prisoners to prevent the spread of HPV and cervical cancer. The paper argues that it is now the obligation of the Federal Bureau of Prisons to add to the "Clinical Practice Guidelines" a requirement for mandatory testing for HPV and for immunization with Gardasil for those who are at high risk of HPV.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"In "Ruiz v. Johnson", a group of inmates had sued the Director of the Texas Department of Corrections. The plaintiffs alleged that conditions in the correctional facilities violated Eight Amendment protections. Conditions were so extreme that the United States joined in as a plaintiff, against the defendant's resistance. The case includes commentary from Dr. Robertson, an expert in the trial. He stated that he saw two cases of "potentially preventable" cancers where the patients received delay in diagnosis and treatment, causing a negative prognosis. The defendants argued that the National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC) accredited them and therefore their practices were constitutional."

Abstract
In war, a distinction is made between murder and killing. Murder is the deliberate killing of another human being and is condemned, but killing another in war is treated as a necessary act and one that does not carry the same stigma. Making other understand the distinction can be difficult, however. In human society, inhibitory restraints against killing other human beings have developed over time and have gained the force of law both moral and man-made.
From the Paper
In war, a distinction is made between murder and killing. Murder is the deliberate killing of another human being and is condemned, but killing another in war is treated as a necessary act and one that does not carry the same stigma. Making other understand the distinction can be difficult, however. In human society, inhibitory restraints against killing other human beings have developed over time and have gained the force of law both moral and man-made. In war, though, these restraints are lessened and have to be overcome to a degree for self-protection. Still, when soldiers have to perform this act, even if it is clear that it is an act of self-protection, it can take a psychological toll. These individuals have

Abstract
Deliberate self-harm (DSH) or self injurious behavior (SIB) involves intentional self-poisoning or injury, irrespective of the apparent purpose of the act. This paper presents an in-depth overview of the issue, including psychological causes of the problem, treatment available and myths surrounding DSH.
Paper Outline:
Introduction and Overview
Types of Self-Harm
Physiological Manifestation
Psychological Manifestation
Demographics
Methods of Alleviating Self Injurious Behavior
Common Misconceptions
Conclusions
From the Paper
"The forms and severity of self-injury can vary, although the most commonly seen behavior is cutting, burning, and head banging. Other forms of self-injurious behavior include: carving, scratching, branding, marking burning/abrasions, biting, bruising, hitting, picking, and pulling skin and hair. Knowing that DSH people inflict self-injury for physical or emotional reasons is important. It is not per se, a voluntary act. Therefore it should be distinguished between other forms of body mutilation. These forms are body piercing, tattooing and scalding patterns in the body. These are voluntary acts. They are performed either for sexual gratification or for body decoration. Sometimes these acts make people one of a crowd or it enables others to fit in among their peers. Several cultures view body painting, piercing, tattooing and other forms of body mutilation as rites of passage. Other times, they are parts of cultural or religious rituals. These voluntary acts are not self-injurious behaviors."

Abstract
This paper examines ways that teachers can prevent both inadvertent and deliberate plagiarism. Note taking, multimedia content, and paraphrasing are among the topics discussed.
From the Paper
"The opportunities for plagiarism have grown along with increased access to Internet-based sources of information. As students increasingly turn to the Web for information and multimedia resources, difficulties with ensuring ethical use escalate. Students that are equipped to recognize and avoid plagiarism are the most likely to use ethical approaches to information use, so several approaches that teach them about plagiarism and how to avoid it can be used to control the problems of both inadvertent and deliberate plagiarism. Inadvertent plagiarism is often the result of obtaining..."

Abstract
This paper describes a way of life called voluntary simplicity, also known as simple living, and explains that it is a lifestyle in which, unlike poverty, individuals deliberately choose to decrease material needs in order to achieve a life full of simple pleasures. The paper describes the philosophy of those who choose voluntary simplicity as a way of life, its origins as a social movement, and its benefits. The paper concludes that voluntary simplicity is a means of capturing the essence of one's life by deliberately choosing one's path rather than living through a series of events. It is a way to which adherents can regain time with their family, friends, and with themselves by consciously choosing how and why they work.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Work and money. These are two of the most lamented topics in America. In the not-so-simple pursuit of the American Dream most people are at the mercy of their job and their pay-check, living way beyond their means week by week. For simple living, there are two important rules to work. First, "find something that you love to do and get paid for it [and secondly,] live under your means." While Middle Americans are working full-time jobs and eking by on their paychecks, simple living encourages balance by living under their means and working fewer hours."

From the Paper
"In his book Decision, Bernard Schwartz, the Chapman Distinguished Professor of Law at the University of Tulsa, writes about how the justices of the United States Supreme Court decide cases making reference to specific cases and the arguments offered in those deliberations, and in so doing he also analyzes the behavior and ideas of several Associate Justices from Felix Frankfurter to Sandra Day O'Connor.
He first examines the decisions in Roe v. Wade and Webster v. Reproductive Health Services and shows the tension between Justice Blackmun and Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist over the issue of abortion. One of the most divisive issues in American politics today is abortion, with strong feelings on both sides and with two unyielding perspectives in direct conflict. The pro-life perspective sees human life as beginning at conception..."

From the Paper
"At different times in our history, critics have found that the supposed balance of power embedded in the U.S. Constitution has shifted from one branch of government to another. At times it has been claimed that we have a Presidential system of government, meaning that the Executive Branch predominates, while at other times it has been said we have a Congressional form of government, with Congress dominating. The Judicial Branch has been accused of trying to legislate at times, but it was developed as the weakest of the three branches of government and has never been said to be predominant as have the other two branches. The degree to which the people can influence their government may depend on which branch is in the ascendancy at a given time. In the long term, we have a three-branch system, for while we might have what is called an Imperial Presidency at one..."
