Abstract
This paper examines how the violation of the Constitution of the United States, which is formally termed as ?non-compliance?, has been seen throughout the history of the United States and how, specifically, it has occurred during times of war during civil disturbances, with the use of extrajudicial force used to supercede the ordinary process of law. It looks at how one such instance occurred during the Civil War and how the violations, which have occurred during the ?War on Terrorism?, are some of the most blatant violations of constitutional ideals and principles ever witnessed.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Although it is understandable for some restrictions during war time in order to keep citizens safe and the country secure it is evident that since September 1, 2001, that the non-compliance to the Constitution which is evidenced by the implementation of the Homeland Security Act and the Patriot Act that the all inclusive powers of the government in spying on citizens is too broad of a scope of powers to be vested in a government of a democracy."

Abstract
An explanation of hypertension and the failure to achieve compliance with anti-hypertensive therapy. The paper begins by explaining that hypertension is associated with many factors that have been found to reduce compliance. Factors that reduce compliance to anti-hypertensive therapy include patient and disease characteristics and treatment characteristics. The paper then shows what solutions can be provided by the medical care facility to improve the treatment. The paper includes many direct quotes from medical journals and offers details of the various treatments and therapies available.
From the Paper
"The 1988-1991 Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES-III) found that only about one-half of hypertensive patients in the United States are being treated and less than one-half of those being treated have their blood pressure well controlled (below 140/90 mmHg). A major reason for this shortfall is lack of patient compliance with therapy. This problem persists even though individual programs have shown excellent adherence to and results from both non drug and drug regimens."

Abstract
This paper explains that the ultimate irony for the United States' passing of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and similar acts is that this type of legislation is fueling an entire IT industry that is called upon to deliver both compliance and business process improvement. The author points out that a service-oriented architecture (SOA) platform is the best practice for line-of-business managers, who want to get the most critical information to the sales, service and pricing managers, and still remain in compliance. The paper relates that the greatest motivator for the development of compliance programs and governance in IT management has not been top-line revenue growth but rather having an air-tight set of financial records when Sarbanes-Oxley auditors arrive to look over transactions
From the Paper
"Keeping in mind that the majority of IT professionals prefer to view their IT platforms from the context of layered model that has a strong focus on integration and pervasive layers of functionality, and the role of an all encompassing layer of analytics begins to take hold. This alone however does not completely negate the issue of the politicization and siloing of information. What analytics layers do however is force the issue of performance from just within one organization and shows the impacts (or lack thereof) of collaboration across the organization."

Abstract
This paper explains that compliance, or taking the right amount of the prescribed medicine at the right time, has emerged in recent years as a most significant, costly and serious problem in the healthcare industry. The author stresses that the current state of research is lacking in this area, and additional research is needed to examine thoroughly the problem and to implement a successful solution. The paper relates that the purpose of the study is to enable physicians to monitor effectively and to control medication compliance by enabling patients to remember what the physician considers most important and what will have the most significant impact on their health; questionnaires will be used to gather data.

From the Paper
"Existing research indicates that many factors are involved in patient non-adherence. These factors are related to the characteristics of the disease, medication side effects, duration of treatment, frequency of expected intake, complexity of treatment, and severity of the disease. Research also indicates that patients are less likely to continue their medication regimen over long periods and are less likely to be adherent when the daily doses increase from 1 pill to 4 pills (Gottlieb, 2000). In a study of patients who had seizures, those who were required to take only 1 pill a day showed 81 percent adherence rates, those who were required to take 3 pills a day adhered 77 percent of the time, and those who were required to take 4 doses a day showed adherence rates of 39 percent."

Abstract
The paper shows that most tuberculosis sufferers are homeless or substance abusers and by not complying with medical protocols on TB treatment, they are endangering the general public. The paper questions the right of the State to detain these people by force in an attempt to protect the public, and further outlines a research proposal designed to determine how medical professionals could better work with patients to produce a higher level of compliance with medical protocols for the treatment of tuberculosis.
From the Paper
"People often have very good reasons for being non-compliant, and in fact their non-compliance often results from the failure of medical staff to be empathetic towards their problems. One reason, for example, that people fail to comply with drug protocols is due to side effects. Medical staff who do not adequately explain the severity of possible side effects, who do not express concern for the patient?s experience with these side effects, and who do not treat these side effects as effectively and vigorously as possible are themselves contributing to non-compliance in those patients. This is clearly part of the process of treatment in which nurse?s behavior can be changed and the effects of these changes studied."

Aviation Safety: Error Management Versus Safety Compliance, 2002.
A look at the concepts and differences between error management and safety compliance in relation to aviation accidents.

Abstract
This essay explains the difference between Error Management and Safety Compliance in aviation accidents. Error Management, it is argued, provides a greater likelihood for proactive outcomes when errors due occur. Because errors and accidents are impossible to eliminate, EM is premised on a complex information gathering system that allows those involved in accidents to better understand what happened. It creates a more intervention-focused environment for crew, and avoids issues of blame and punishment, and thus provides the crew with a different responsibility for error prevention.

Corporate Compliance on a Personal Level, 2008.
A look at the changes in corporate compliance laws.

Abstract
This paper explores the changes in corporate compliance brought about by the enactment of The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The paper relates that both of these comprehensive legislative initiatives were brought about by infamous events in American Corporate history, and were aimed at preventing such corporate transgressions in the future. They brought personal liability for the actions of the corporation to its directors, officers and management.
From the Paper
"The corporate veil was a thick impenetrable barrier that protected Officers, Directors, Management and shareholders from personal liability from the acts of the corporation. The immunity granted by the legislative progenitors of these modern day immortals are now chipping away at the corporate shield, and have created large holes where the long arms of personal liability can now reach. As with all things political, seminal events brought about these fundamental changes in corporate law. The pollution scandal of Love Canal brought about The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), among other provisions brought about criminal liability to Officers and Management for willful violations (Darragh, 1997, n.p.). The corporate financial scandals associated with the "Dot Bomb" era of the late 1990's resulted in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, establishing personal liability to the corporate officers in the reporting of financial data to the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) (Hein, Neimeth, Rosner & Watts, 2002, n.p.). The spectacular misdeeds of a very few in the corporate world brought about increase personal liability and risk to those that run corporations in America."

"The contemporary period is one in which diseases once thought conquered in this country are making strong reappearances, and during which both new diseases and diseases not previously common in this country are becoming significant concerns of health care professionals. The identification and successful treatment of the individuals afflicted by these diseases are important to both the afflicted persons, whose health is directly at risk, and to the broader society, whose health is indirectly at risk."

" EFFECTS OF PATIENT HYPERTENSION EDUCATION ON COMPLIANCE:
A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE
Hypertension has been estimated to affect over 15 percent of the general population in North America, and is a leading risk factor for coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure stroke, kidney disease, and retinopathy (Fodor, 1994); in the United States alone, it is estimated that 50 to 60 million people suffer from hypertension (Bittar, 1995). In the past two decades the proportion of treated patients with well-controlled hypertension has increased to over 40 percent; however, one third are either unaware of their condition, or the reduction of blood pressure in those treated is unsatisfactory (Fodor, 1994).
Some hypertensive conditions are considered to be "resistant;" usually such conditions are present when a patient's.."

Abstract
This paper critically analyses the factors that may contribute to the chronically ill person maintaining or not maintaing adherence to treatment. Five related areas of concern associated with compliance metatheory are briefly reviewed. It is asserted that theory building, assessment, research, and clinical application have been needlessly constrained as a result of the tendency of compliance investigations to be: (a) unidimensional, (b) practitioner centered, (c) reductionist, (d) stability (consistency) oriented, and (e) a motivational. The problem listing is then followed by a discussion of potential conceptual alternatives, and by the presentation of a tentative family of terms to replace the current overextended usage of the compliance label.
From the Paper
"Compliance is usually defined as a technical problem that is a theoretical in nature; that is to say, compliance is a problem associated with getting the patient to behave in accord with medical advice. Karoly finds this definition to be somewhat sterile and urges that compliance should be thought of as a construct not unlike intelligence. Karoly argues that control theory offers a useful meta-analytic framework for conceptualizing the construct. The power of this approach is that it offers the possibility of combining cause-effect models and those that attempt to analyze "properties of people and/or systems (e.g., families) that are capable of yielding consistencies in health maintaining behavior." Karoly offers a triarchic model of compliance that is analogous to Sternberg's model of the construct of intelligence."

Abstract
This paper is a brief report to an IT manager in a governmental department. As it turns out, the IT manager requests a detailed examination of five key factors which it has been determined will greatly impact e-government compliance. Specifically, the paper looks at the theoretical definition of each factor, discusses the current and future trend, and (of course) outlines how each factor will positively and negatively determine the department's march towards e-government compliance. In the final analysis, the paper attempts to show that each of these factors presents challenges, but every one of these challenges can be surmounted through careful study, extensive training of personnel and a positive corporate environment.

Abstract
This paper discusses the global trend towards ensuring corporate compliance of financial and accounting regulations. Recent measures in Australia, England and Canada as well as the United States are examined. Particularly Sarbanes-Oxley in the United States is examined with its corresponding influence on cost of compliance and convergence of IT and finance department functions.
From the Paper
"The global perspective on corporate governance has evolved with the pace of globalization itself; and justifiably so. With the pace of global expansion and the increasingly complex integration of the world's major economies, corporate governance and oversight are necessary measures to ensure an equitable, level playing field for all participants in the global economy. As Tarantino points out, most of the world's major economies outside of the U.S. may view the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as a gross over reaction yet none would fail to observe that U.S. economic growth is generally outperforming Europe's major economies (2005). He goes on to say that: Forward-thinking public and private companies in the U.S. have taken a proactive approach to regulatory requirements to improve internal controls. They view them as a best practice that will increase their profitability and provide a strategic competitive advantage."
