''He was just sixteen and already he had seen more needles and treatments then anyone could ever imagine. He hated hospitals...with the smell of antiseptic slithering through the vents like a snake. He tried staring at the egg shelled colored walls to soothe his mind but his attention span was shot and the pain once dull and sedated was now reaching a fever pitch. He grew angry, agitated at the world and everyone in it. Why should he have to suffer? What had he done wrong? He hadn't been looking for an illness, this disease that had stricken him to the bone. It was just sex. At least that was what he had thought. And now he laid bed bound in a hospital where the survival rate for AIDS was less than fifteen percent. This would not be his future had he known about safe sex. Perhaps then he could have known how to take care for his body. Perhaps he would not be another statistic.''

Abstract
This paper discusses Todd Wagner's break with Hollywood tradition by distributing movies via simultaneous distribution in all mediums--theatre, DVD, pay per view. It further states that it is too early to know if simultaneous distribution is working financially.

"The methods used for this study will include a quantitative evaluation that will examine the use patterns of women currently using birth control at family planning clinics in the United States. Study criteria will include women who are interested in receiving birth control over the counter who are willing to complete a survey to determine whether or not they feel provider evaluation and counseling prove beneficial. The subjects will be asked to rate whether or not they feel provider input with regard to birth control pill use has been beneficial or not in the past."

"This research will examine the successes and failures of the expansion of the global economy at income distribution between creditor and debtor nations and between social classes in Latin America. The origins of the global economy" will be discussed and its eventual transformation from a purely liberal perspective to today s neoliberal perspective will be charted. Finally, the current impact of the neoliberal global economy on income distribution in Latin America will be assessed.

The expansion of the global economy--especially as guided by the neoliberal perspectives of the creditor countries and the International Monetary Fund--has had a dramatic, albeit less than successful, impact on economic growth in Latin American countries. The philosophy of creditor countries to promote economic growth in Latin America and elsewhere in the Third World..."

From the Paper
"Home Accessories International (HAI) is a provider of various accessories to the home. Traditionally distribution of goods has been performed via a network of specialised distributors across Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. Senior management has recently decided to migrate an existing product line, windowsill protectors, to an online distribution system (e-tailing) in order to reduce the costs involved in relying on agents to market the goods to retail customers. This will be a test case which will be closely observed by other divisions of HAI. If successful, implementation will be extended throughout the company. E-tailing is unlikely to attract new customers in the first instance and this is not the aim of the project. Management will be satisfied to maintain the existing customer base during the first year of online operation."

Abstract
This paper examines Kellogg's cereals' distribution issues, determining whether it uses intensive, selective, or exclusive distribution. The paper identifies a physical distribution issue and explains why Kellogg's is a candidate for direct marketing.

From the Paper
"The three distribution intensities that Kellogg's could choose from are intensive, selective and exclusive distribution. Intensive distribution attempts to provide saturated coverage of the market through all available outlets; this type of distribution is required where customers have a range of acceptable brands to choose from and can simply choose another brand if one is not available. Selective distribution involves the use of a limited number of outlets for selling products in a particular geographical area, an option that works best if consumers are committed to..."

From the Paper
"Gripping Stuff Entertainment (GSE) is an entertainment service provider specialising in movie rentals. Traditionally distribution of videos and DVDs was accomplished via the GSE stores from which they were rented. Senior management has recently decided to migrate from the traditional distribution system to an online version in order to reduce costs resulting from physical storefront rentals and maintenance and also in order expand the customer base. A very real risk is that existing customers will be drawn over to competing home entertainment providers while GSE implements this migration. In order to mitigate this risk and also to increase general customer loyalty to the GSE brand, a loyalty programme will be launched and integrated with the new internet distribution channel. Offering loyalty incentives to those customers who choose to utilise the internet mode of distribution will increase internet sales penetration of the market while increasing overall loyalty to GSE."

Abstract
This paper considers heterogenity, openness, scalability, security, concurrency, failure handling and transparency in distributed databases. It defines "distributed databases." The paper provides an analysis of its benefits and looks at productivity gains and security issues.

From the Paper
"As its name suggests a distributed database is a collection of data that is located in several different physical locations-that is distributed over several resources-while operating as a single logical database. This provides system managers the ability to distribute the database over multiple systems depending on system resources and to use either local or wide area networks to access the data. When this type of database configuration is used there are obviously many different factors that need to be taken into account ..."
