Abstract
This paper discusses how, in spite of significant under reporting of the role of Jewish women within the creation, formation, and continuance of the Jewish community, these persons are highly active both within the formalized religious structure and the informal socio-cultural communities affiliated with a given synagogue. This paper demonstrates the impact and the role of the woman within the Jewish communities in North America, with an emphasis on the Conservative Jewish community and comparing and contrasting differences between Jewish women within Canada and North America.
From the Paper
"Women within the Jewish community are accorded rights and privileges that are rarely found within other theologically-oriented communities, such as a matrilineal line of integration into the faith and the ability to own property and acquire protection under the sanctity of law. Yet despite these obvious distinctions from the majority of the world's major religions, women within the Jewish community tend to face overt and understated forms of segregation in terms of the interpretation of their actions. Through extension, this understatement of their role in the community can be interpreted as purposeful or accidental devaluation. "

Abstract
This paper asserts that there is a fundamental lack of government effectiveness and accessibility in Canada, Mexico, and the United States, that does not promote democratic practices for the good of the citizenry, and in fact undermines them. This paper discusses that in his Gettysburg Address in 1863, President Abraham Lincoln defined the two essential principles of democracy as "that government of the people, by the people, for the people...dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." It further discusses the statement that equality refers to the social and philosophical perception of people as inherently persons of worth.

"Great Britain's National Health Service (NHS) is a publicly funded healthcare system that was created by Clement Attlee's labor government, in 1948 ("NHS history", n.d.). The NHS provides most of the healthcare services for citizens in the UK, which includes general practitioner services, emergency services, long-term healthcare, and dentistry. The NHS not only pays for healthcare expenses, but it also employs the doctors and nurses that provide these services, as well as runs the hospitals and clinics, which is in stark contrast to most of Continental Europe ("National Health Service", 2005)."

Abstract
The paper reviews the Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Agency of Canada (PSEPC) and the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) in order to assess if these organizations are infringing upon the privacy of Canadians and whether this infringement is justifiable. The paper discusses the Canadian Constitution and how the new security regime has the potential to undermine certain sections of it, posing risks to privacy rights.
From the Paper
"There can be little doubt that national security has become a major preoccupation of the Canadian government in light of the events of 9/11. According to the Canadian government - and to similar materials contained in our course notes - the national security plan emerging from that traumatic event is explicitly committed to protecting Canadians at home and where they reside abroad; the plan also mandates that the federal government do whatever it can to ensure Canada does not become a base for terrorist threats directed against allies - most notably the United States (Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Canada, "Securing an Open Society: Canada's National Security Policy," para.1-5)."

Abstract
This essay discusses how climate governs the entire ecological structure of the planet earth. The author examines how climate, in relation to the topography and latitudinal location, determines the vegetative types, the hydrology, soil, agriculture, and various human activities.
From the Paper
"Climate represents a long term average of various weather features such as temperature and precipitation. The World Meteorological Organization uses 30-year averages to define climatological "normals" for these various features. Climate determines how resources such as water and vegetation are distributed and, until the onset of technology, climate also determined where people lived and worked. Many factors, such as topography, proximity to large bodies of water, and latitude affect a particular location's long-term climate. It is important to note that because a region's climatology is a 30-year average, significant year to year variability is likely. For example, a particular location may have a dry, warm winter one year and a record snowfall the next year"

Globalization, State Security and Human Security in Asia, 2006.
An analysis of globalization and how it relates to state security.

Abstract
This paper explores the relationship between globalization and security using the state and the individual as units of analysis. It argues that globalization has varying consequences on different actors. The paper challenges the assumption that globalization has a direct impact on state security. It shows that global processes challenge state security in an indirect manner but have direct effects on human security.

From the Paper
"Globalization can be seen both as a historical project and as a process that affects social relations of peoples, groups and states.(Bello, 1998) It is conceived as a historical conjuncture of the modernist project (McMichael 1996) that promotes the ideological framework of neoliberalism (Kinvall 2002: 5-6). The principles of free market economics constitute the policy package called the Washington Consensus - trade liberalization, financial deregulation, privatization, and inflation and currency exchange stability policies - which became the cornerstone of structural adjustment policies (SAPs) implemented in many economies. While Latin America and Africa have severely suffered from neoliberal globalization, Asia stands as an exceptional case of successful integration in the global economy (Dittmer 2002). Asia Pacific projected itself to the world as the most dynamic region characterized by growth with equity: rapid and sustained economic growth, equitable distribution of incomes, and dramatic improvements in human welfare (Rigg 2003: Table 1.3: 10; World Bank 1993)."

Abstract
Using examples from Puerto Rico, Mexico and Cuba, this paper examines how relationships between Hispanics couples are formed and sustained. It contends that in the near future, Hispanics will represent the majority ethnic segment in the U.S., with blacks and whites coming in a distant second and third and that it is important to understand how these relationships are made. It looks at different types of relationships such as divorced couples who still live together, married couples, couples who live together but are not sexually active and common law marriage arrangements.

Conclusion.
From the Paper
"While the reasons for emigration vary from individual to individual, citizens of many Latin American nations have considered the United States as a destination of choice over the past decades. There were profound and compelling reasons for many Hispanics wanting to leave their home countries; in the past 100 years or so, violent revolutions have affected the political framework of several countries (including Mexico, Bolivia, Cuba, and Nicaragua). In the 20th century, Cuba became a Communist state under Fidel Castro, while the Nicaraguan Revolution brought the Marxist-oriented Sandinistas to power. Peru, Bolivia, and Chile also tried a local Latin American version of socialism with little success (Cockcroft 1998). However, once they arrived in the U.S., such relative newcomers, many lacking in basic literacy skills in either English or Spanish, were assumed to be still caught up in the immigrant syndrome, or worse, to be languishing in what Oscar Lewis termed the "culture of poverty" (1965).

Database Security.
This paper discusses the goals of security and common security threats, including Microsoft SQL Server security techniques and web application security measures.
2,715 words (approx. 10.9 pages), 18 sources, APA, $ 81.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that database security is the protection of the database against unauthorized access, either intentional or accidental; security countermeasures should combat threats and the outcomes of such threats. The author points out that physical security means that a SQL Server system is running in a controlled-access environment in which only approved personnel have physical access to the system; whereas, appropriate physical security means that SQL Server should be isolated from web infrastructures and direct Internet access. The paper concludes that network and operating system security are not sufficient to defend against dynamic threats to a web application; therefore, database and web application server techniques are a necessity, but even with these extra layers of security in place, there's no such thing as a full-proof security system.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Access control prevents unauthorized persons from accessing a system to either obtain information or make changes. Like most databases, Microsoft SQL Server handles access control by allowing the creation of user accounts and passwords to control log-in. Additionally, Microsoft SQL Server supports the use of Windows NT Integrated Security where users are identified to the database by their Windows NT user accounts rather than user ID and password to access the database. Chapple states that this approach offers both the benefit of shifting the burden of account management to the network administration staff and it provides the ease of a single sign-on to the end user."

Cyber-security Breaches, 2007.
A review of recent case studies of cyber-security breaches in the USA.
4,069 words (approx. 16.3 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 109.95

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses various recent cyber-security breaches in the USA. The paper discusses each event, the method used to breach the cyber-security and the response. The paper focuses primarily on the case of Moonlight Maze, one of the most infamous cyber-attacks which occurred in the late 1990s.
From the Paper
"The hackers were apparently working from a location in Russia, though this could not be definitively established due to the nature of the infiltration. All that is known for certain is that the hack into Department of Defense computers had been going on for more than a year and that it is entirely unclear how much information was made off with during that time. This is due in part to the fact that in addition to raiding information directly from the Pentagon, the hackers also used that point of entry to enter other sensitive systems throughout the US government. These included networks at nuclear research labs associated with the Energy Department, NASA, and numerous university research facilities (Drogin, 1999). Investigators reiterate that the attackers obtained no known classified information, but the general uncertainty surrounding Moonlight Maze makes this claim dubious at best."

Abstract
All people throughout human history have faced the uncertainties brought on by unemployment, illness, disability, death and old age. In the view of economics, these inevitable facts of life are a threat to one's economic security. During these periods people, employers, government and others have devised back-up plans or programs to fund these times of need. This paper looks at how social security became the term used to identify these funding programs and looks at the history of some of the social security programs.
From the Paper
"As colonial America's population grew the systems for poor relief became burdened. The state provided additional financing to build more almshouses and poorhouses. During the 18th and 19th centuries most poverty relief was provided in the almshouses and poorhouses. Relief aid was made most unpleasant in order to discourage reliance. Those receiving relief were subject to losing their property, the right to vote, and the right to move. Support from outside sources was called "outdoor relief" and was mostly frowned upon by most citizens. "

Business Security, 2007.
This paper discusses whether a single security director should control both traditional security and information technology security.
2,265 words (approx. 9.1 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 70.95

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper looks at the difference between physical security and digital/logical security. The paper explains the role of the traditional security director and the difficulties of setting up systems that are not tangible compared to setting up perimeter fences or deploying security guards across the facility. The paper examines arguments for and against a single security director. The paper concludes that the executive management is the sole determining group for whether security should be with two people or just one person. The paper is of the opinion that the current trend of having one person trained in both areas makes good business sense and will ensure a total security posture.
From the Paper
"In the days before the ubiquity of the computers and the Internet, security was confined to physical, personnel, communications and operations of a business enterprise or an infrastructure. The security director is the overall in charge of ensuring that barriers, locks and other mechanical devices are properly used to control access to the facility. Personnel are briefed and lectured on protecting themselves within the corporate premises and when they are out of the office. They are warned about corporate espionage, criminal elements and other nefarious individuals or organizations that can do harm to their persons or the company."

From the Paper
"Since encryption is so widely used, there are numerous advancements made in its genre, and the latest enhancement was the central government's key escrow encryption proposal. This is more commonly called the Clipper Chip and the Capstone chip. The Clipper Chip, as the name suggests comes in the size and form of a chip and holds the private key encryption algorithm. The Capstone chip, also in the form of the chip, holds the public key encryption algorithm. Both the encryption algorithms used in these chips when sold off have to be recorded in two different government or government-supported companies. This way the government has the inside access to these algorithms in case they need to use them for implementation of the regulations or public security functions (McNab 2004)."

Abstract
This paper discusses the rising cost of security and how it is hurting airline business in the United States. The writer describes how the price tag attached with extra security measures is bringing down major airlines that were already facing a dearth of business passengers and rapid cuts in the number of flights after September 11.
From the Paper
"United States government is not only anticipating more terrorist attacks in future, it is also asking its people to pay a huge price for this fear. While the government rightly wants to beef up security in order to protect its people from terrorist activities in future, the people are unfortunately being made to pay for these governmental plans. The price tag attached with extra security measures is bringing down major airlines that were already facing a dearth of business passengers and rapid cuts in number of flights after September 11. It is important to understand that airlines industry along with the rest of travel industry has suffered immensely after September 11 but the reason why it has failed to make a decent recovery is because government is consistently levying security surcharges, which most United States airlines cannot afford. "
