From the Paper
"This opportunity to finally put my abilities as a lawyer to the test was pivotal for me. Although I had never prepared a case for a real trial before, I was excited and optimistic. By examining every aspect of the case's documentation, gaining full insight into Russian taxation legislation, and applying my logical reasoning and judgement, I was able to prepare a strong argument supported by the statutes to prove that the actions of the Revenue Board were in fact unlawful."

Abstract
This paper looks at an article published by Kate Murphy regarding the explosion on the market of convenience foods. It looks at the reasons for the popularity of convenience foods, as explained by Murphy, how the producers of convenience foods benefit, and why the sale and consumption of the foods don't exactly follow the traditional laws of supply and demand.
From the Paper
"In the case of these new foods, brand loyalty has already been established, but consumers are paying more for these brand names, and for less food. For the suppliers it is a "win-win" situation. Even better, consumers tend to eat more because of the food's convenience. Thus consumers are eating more packaged food when it comes marketed as convenience foods, because as food becomes easier to eat, consumers eat in more varied locations. "Convenience foods also expand the market for packaged food by creating more opportunities to eat. They allow busy consumers to snack while driving a car, riding in an elevator or even getting a pedicure.""

Abstract
This paper finds that most people in modern American society have internalized obedience to most legal rules. They drive only a few miles over the speed limit, they do not park in handicapped spaces, and they follow these rules even when there is no serious threat of arrest. The paper notes that they do so because they believe in the legal system, and the tribute to the system is that it sustains this belief.
From the Paper
"By and large, in contemporary America, people do obey the law. Most (although not all) people respect handicapped parking spaces; they do not litter; they drive reasonably close to the speed limits; they do not run red lights; they do not commit adultery; they do not drive drunk; they do not try to settle business disputes by violent means. Further, they put a great deal of trust in the legal system, feeling to a large degree that if there are breakdowns in the social order, they can resort to the legal system to seek redress of their grievances. Why? The answer this question, it is appropriate first define certain terms:..."

Abstract
In an increasingly secular world natural law has frequently fallen under intense scrutiny. This paper, however, argues that natural law is superior to legal positivism and stands up well to three common criticism leveled against it; first that natural law is at least as subjective as any statute passed by legal positivists, second that natural law can impress a certain more absolutism and dogmatism upon the crafting and interpretation of the law which is inherently unhealthy in evolving societies, and thirdly that natural law is predicated upon faith and not upon reason as is the positive law tradition.

From the Paper
"How to Save Information on a Disk or Flash Drive Introduction This paper provides a generic overview and instructions on how to use a flash drive. The intention of this paper is to help communicate the usefulness of the flash drive as a tool and to introduce users unfamiliar to such devices to its properties and general use. Summary of the Flash Drive Saving information to a drive is a critical and very necessary process of computer use. Drives can be internal or external, and the process differs slightly according to the types of drives used. Flash drives are accessible, portable drives that use a USB port and NAND flash memory technology. NAND technology is a form of information transmission that utilizes "not and" functions, meaning that the device determines the exclusionary properties of information and stores it accordingly on a peripheral device."

Abstract
This paper examines and analyzes the Drive theoryof business psychology, which counts among its chief proponents both Freud and Hull. These thinkers strongly believed that all motivation for behavior was driven by an innate impulse to satisfy basic physiological needs. Though theorists differed on the final constitution of the needs that mattered, drive theorists argued that motivation, especially in the workplace, could be best understood in terms of an individual's desire to satisfy basic needs.
From the Paper
"In terms of workplace motivation few psychological theories can have as much usefulness and lack of usefulness as drive theory. Drive theory counted among its chief proponents both Freud and Hull (Reeve, 2001) who strongly believed that all motivation for behavior was driven by an innate impulse to satisfy basic physiological needs. Though theorists differed on the final constitution of the needs that mattered, drive theorists argued that motivation, especially in the workplace, could be best understood in terms of an individual's desire to satisfy basic needs. For instance, hunger motivates one to eat. Thirst encourages the..."

Abstract
This paper is a summary and analysis of Donald J. Greene's article regarding Samuel Johnson's beliefs pertaining to "natural law." The case is made in this paper that Johnson believed in a scientific version of "natural law," and that attempts to place his views with that of a religious slant were largely speculative. Furthermore, the paper asserts that Johnson's own religious beliefs were never fully explored and his associations with other writers cannot be given as a reason to label his beliefs.

Abstract
This paper discusses the magnetic hard disk drive and how it works, from its creation to the present day. It also discusses possible future technological advances. It then discusses the varied uses of hard drives and the impact the device has had on society over the past few decades.
From the Paper
"Personal computer technology has grown exponentially over the past few decades, but at its core, construction remains focused on certain necessary components. The magnetic hard disk drive is one of those components. Despite its importance and widespread use, many casual computer users know little about the history of or workings of this device. The magnetic hard disk drive, or simply hard drive, as it is known by most computer users, has come a long way and evolved over fifty years to become the ubiquitous storage device the world knows today."

Abstract
This study looks at the problem of disparity in sentencing guidelines when it comes to DUI vehicular homicide. The study examines this disparity, as well as the sentencing disparity that exists with other types of crime. The paper contends that, while race is a significant reason for the disparity, it is not the only reason. A look at the various causes for sentencing disparity and how the injustice might be corrected is also the subject of this study.

From the Paper
"This has become a serious problem for many minority individuals, since many who have been sentenced are insisting that the guidelines under which they have been sentenced are unfair. Literature on this subject, which will be reviewed in Chapter Two, appears to indicate that some disparity may exist, and this is worrying for minority individuals, due to the fact that they are aware that, if they are arrested for DUI vehicular homicide, they will likely be punished more severely than those that are of the Caucasian race."

Abstract
The paper argues against the Constitution's raising of the legal drinking age to 21 years nationwide. The paper discusses the rise in alcoholism among teenagers since the act came into effect in 1984 and several other reasons why the law should be removed. Finally, it touches on the the fact that the law can be seen as unconstitutional for it clearly favors federal jurisdiction where there should be none.
From the Paper
"At age 18, an American can vote, fight and die in a war, marry, own homes and cars, and even firearms. But these rights somehow do not measure up to the right to drink beer, wine, and spirits. The specter of Prohibition loomed when Americans decided that alcohol consumption was so sacred and powerful that citizens can vote before they can consume alcohol legally. The paradox is astounding but fails to impress American puritanical standards."
