Abstract
This paper takes a complete look at the professional career of advertising executive Ed McCabe and how his managerial skills influenced his successful company.
From the Paper
"Ed McCabe has been part of several different advertising agencies in the course of his career and recently headed his own agency. He has had a surprising career. He landed his first agency job when he was 15 years old, joining McCann-Erickson in Chicago. He later moved to New York and wrote for Young & Rubicam, Benton & Bowles, Marschalk, and Carl Ally. In 1967 he cofounded Scale, McCabe, and Sloves (SMS). In 1974, when he was 35, he became the youngest person ever to be elected to the Copywriter's Hall of Fame.

In 1971 SMS was given the advertising contract for Perdue Farms chickens.

Abstract
This paper studies the company EDS, or Electronic Data Systems, founded by Ross Perot. The paper traces the history, development, personalities connected to and controversy associated with EDS, particularly in terms of its affiliation with WorldCom. Much of the paper focuses on the company's founder and CEO Ross Perot, examining his personal gain from the company and his flamboyant -- often controversial -- leadership style. Then the paper turns to an evaluation of the damaging affect WorldCom -- known for its ethical ambiguity -- has had on EDS and attempts by the company to regain its credibility and profitability.
Outline:
WorldCom and EDS: Similarities and Differences
Hitching one's star to the wrong wagon
Back in the heart of Texas
Ebbers' match
Heads roll
That was then....
Conclusion
From the Paper
"It is arguable that EDS' problems in the marketplace were caused more by earnings shortfalls, arguably caused by market conditions and unfortunate choices of partners, than by accounting practices. And in fact, EDS did not implode like Enron and WorldCom. It also replaced CEO Dick Brown with Michael Jordan, the retired chairman and chief executive of CBS Corp. (Feder 2003). Brown had reached a "mutual agreement," according to reports in the press. An EDS spokesman said that the company was stronger than when Brown joined it four years earlier, and that his resignation "demonstrated 'realism' and a 'willingness to take responsibility for things that were not necessarily his fault'" (Feder 2003, database). The claim that the company is stronger is cold comfort to the shareholders. IN 2003, when those optimistic statements were issued, EDS shared traded at $15.76, down from $65.91 a year before, prior to the WorldCom bankruptcy and the other factors, noted above, that contributed to the disastrous failure to reach third quarter earnings projections in 2002."

Abstract
This paper explains that the inability to perform in a typical manner during sexual intimacies takes its toll on the emotional well being of any relationship and therefore on the quality of life of patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). The author points out that there are now many treatment options, including medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), which have shown promise of improving the lives of many, but not all, people suffering from ED. The paper states that the proposed research will compare, using both quantitative and qualitative data, three non-invasive treatment options: medication, individual therapy and relationship counseling.

Introduction
Methodology
Analysis
From the Paper
"The high rates of probability for partial or complete ED is demonstrative of the need to analyze the problem in a comprehensive manner, especially considering that there are likely many individuals in the population who are excluded for medical reasons from taking oral medications to help resolve or treat the problem of ED as it is also often likely to be associated with medical care for other, more life threatening diseases. ED can be caused by medications used to treat high blood pressure and other high risk medical diagnoses as well as by chronic medical conditions such as diabetes."

McCabe vs. British America Tobacco Australia Services Limited, 2002.
An in-depth analysis of the case of McCabe vs. British America Tobacco Australia Services Limited where the defendant claimed that cigarette smoking was responsible for her lung cancer.

Abstract
The original argument was that cigarettes caused Ms. McCabe's cancer because she was not aware of the health risks involved in smoking cigarettes. The appeal argument stated that the destruction of documents interfered with a fair trial. This paper explores in detail if the destruction of documents by the tobacco company, in order to hide information concerning the health risks of cigarette smoking interfered with a fair trial.
From the Paper
"The entire concept behind the documentation retention policy is the reason in question as why the documents were destroyed. The courts have decided that the tobacco company was in their legal right in destroying the documents. But although they have been destroyed lawfully, the intention behind the documents may have interfered with justice. Were the documents destroyed to create more space, to be more cost and time efficient; or were they destroyed because they contained valuable evidence that related cigarette smoking to lung cancer? "

Abstract
This paper examines how Ed Hamilton, a contemporary sculptor, believes his greatest passion in life is to teach people the truth of history, specifically African American history, and how his method of bringing truth to the public eye is to conceive of and create memorials to the ?forgotten?

He began sculpting as a career only after becoming an apprentice to the well-known sculptor, Barney Bright (Anonymous Biography, Internet source)."

Edmund Kemper - The Co-ed Killer, 2006.

Abstract
This paper introduces, discusses and analyzes the topic of criminal justice. Specifically the paper discusses the juvenile offender Edmund Kemper also known as the Co-ed Killer. The paper takes a look at concepts of juvenile delinquency in relation to the justice system and how the system deals with juvenile offenders.
From the Paper
"The societal impact of Kemper's first release was deadly. Eight women including his mother died as a result, and more probably would have died had Kemper not turned himself in. He became notorious as a serial killer, and finally got the recognition he had so desperately needed from his mother. Throughout his life, his bizarre actions were a cry for help, and no one listened. His mother berated him, the justice system "cured" him and set him free, and the social workers ignored him. There were several different systems at play in Kemper's release, and they all combined to let him, and society, down. The societal impact to eight families was brutal, but what Kemper's case implied to society as a whole was much more important. If Kemper made it through the system and was released back to the very person who seemed to be the cause of most of his problems, how many other offenders had suffered the same fate, and were waiting to claim more victims? Ultimately, society pays for the digressions of the criminal justice system, in small ways, or in larger ones."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the statement that culture is a catalyst for gender discrimination and that social reproduction also perpetuates gender discrimination, while others argue that culture is not a factor in gender discrimination, but rather it is socioeconomic factors that are the variables contributing to achievement.
From the Paper
"Women throughout history have had "less-than-equal occupational and social status than young men" as they do in classrooms. Consequently, females who tried to benefit from a male dominated society had to "acclimate to that culture if they [were] to profit from it." Discrimination is apparent between schooling and expectations for females. Females acquire less feedback from teachers, and teachers' criteria have lower standards for females to succeed. Streitmatter goes on to prove that females perform at higher levels in same gender classes. They excel more in math, physics and calculus than females in co-ed classes because teachers' expectations are not lowered: students gain the feedback and attention needed, and same sex classes provide a safe environment for females to learn.
Co-educational classes defeat what initially they were meant to rectify; that gender would not limit the access to equal education. Calculus, math, and physics classes have been male dominated."

Ed Gein and his Use of Fantasy, 2007.
A look at the theory behind why Ed Gein carried out his gruesome murders.
1,539 words (approx. 6.2 pages), 9 sources, APA, $ 50.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper reviews the use of fantasy in Eddie Gein's mind as he launched his horrific wave of murders in the late 1950s. The paper explores Gein's sexual frustrations, his curious inability to connect with women (or to find sexual gratification) in anything approaching a normal way, and his deeply conflicted relationship with an abusive and domineering mother. In the end, the paper suggests that Gein had fantasies about dominating and possessing women that were conjoined to murderous fantasies directed towards the maternal presence in his life.
From the Paper
"The theory being developed thus far is that Eddie Gein was an individual who was unable to connect with women from a very early age and this inability - perhaps because of his curious relationship to his mother (Bardsley & Bell, 2005a) - led him down a path whereby women became objects he had to possess and consume. Obviously, there are many sexually frustrated men who do not become sexual psychopaths like Edward Gein, but a potent combination of latent insecurities, perhaps a psychological predisposition towards doing malevolent things to others, and a strained family life in his formative years pushed him "over the edge" and into a life of unspeakable evil."

Abstract
This paper introduces and discusses the topic of criminal justice. Specifically it discusses the juvenile offender Edmund Kemper, also known as the Co-ed Killer. The paper analyzes concepts of juvenile delinquency and the justice system. It describes how the system deals with juvenile offenders and whether it is successful in rehabilitating offenders.
From the Paper
"The solutions to the problem of juvenile offenders are varied and difficult. Some juveniles seem to understand their actions and their ultimate danger to society, as Kemper did. Others seem unable to understand their violent tendencies or seek help for them. Once they are inside the criminal justice system, these offenders can fall by the wayside in the wake of other more serious offenders, or they can simply be pushed aside as caseloads and workers shortages take their toll on the system. In Kemper's case, the juvenile system let him and society down. They did not follow up on his accusations against his mother, or ensure that his release into society was going smoothly. Instead, they dropped the ball, and Kemper had free reign over himself. The CYA only kept Kemper for three months before they let him go, and clearly, that was not long enough. His treatment was not complete, and he dreaded his home life. The doctors should have been able to see that he was seriously disturbed, and might never be able to function normally in society. Ultimately, the solution is more studies into offenders such as Kemper, so that doctors and the criminal justice system have a better idea how to treat and restrain seriously mentally ill offenders."

Co-Ed Military Training, 2005.
This paper discusses the problems created by young women and men sharing bedrooms during army basic training.
1,000 words (approx. 4.0 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 35.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, in 1998, a full scale investigation of the issue of mixed-sex training concluded unanimously that mixed-sex basic training and housing should be ended; however, the most that came from the report was that the Army agreed to install partitions in the barracks to discourage sexual encounters. The author points out that the panel urged the military services to keep the sexes in separate barracks at the platoon level for the ten week of basic training; yet, men and women would still train together. The paper relates that, while careful not to sound tolerant of sex crimes or harassment, critics declare that placing young men and women together during the first weeks of training and particularly placing seemingly all-powerful male drill sergeants in charge of young female recruits, is simply a recipe for trouble.
From the Paper
"There were so many female recruits who were unable to pass hand grenade tossing tests at one Army base that authorities simply changed the standards, setting different requirements for male and female recruits, reports analyst James Anderson of the Heritage Foundation, in his paper, "Boot Camp or Summer Camp? Restoring Rigorous Standards to Basic Training" . Anderson says that in an effort to entice and retain women, basic training has become much more feminized, de-emphasizing toughness and rigor. At Great Lakes Naval Training Center, recruits are now shown a video that tells them that "anyone can make it through boot camp," when actually the point should be that not everyone can make it."

Co-ed Competitive Athletics, 2005.
This paper argues against young women competing against young men in the athletic sphere.
1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 2 sources, $ 53.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, in recent years, the strident demands of feminists that girls be allowed to play with the boys has sparked considerable debate. The author argues that such a development will lead to wide-spread injury and is unnecessary because Title IX already provides women with access to athletic facilities and with access to athletic scholarships. The paper suggests that what is really being pursued by feminist advocates in a matter of this sort is an entry by young women into male athletics while the same opportunity, especially for social and political reasons, is not similarly extended to young men.
From the Paper
"In our present day and age, it is fashionable to talk about the 'inequalities' that women face in contemporary society. Although much of this can be dismissed as dishonest rhetoric, there is, nonetheless, a genuine sentiment amongst many women that men are keeping them from their 'full' potential as human beings. While many areas can be explored when discussing the on-going battle between the sexes, this paper will explore but one of them - namely, high school athletics. Specifically, this paper will argue that having girls compete against boys in high-school athletics is not only unfair, it is dangerous to the young women participating in such activities."
