From the Paper
"The relationship between Judiciary and Executive/Legislature in a country like India has always been contentious. The 57 years of the working of the Indian Constitution has more than once seen a supremacy tussle between the Judiciary and Executive on one hand and the Legislature on the other. One of the most inextricable reason of such a tussle has always been the Ninth Schedule which has more or less met its fate with the I.R.Coelho judgment. However, for a deeper and an unbiased understanding, it would be better to start from the history of the Ninth Schedule."

Abstract
Light beers have become a viable product in the last few years showing a certain ambiguous health consciousness on the part of the public, at least in America, so that people continue to drink beer but try to reduce their caloric intake at the same time. This paper compares the international markets for the products Bud Light (Anheuser-Busch International, Inc) and Coors Light (Coors Brewing Company).
The paper shows that taste may be a consideration in deciding which beer to purchase, but the success or failure of a lite beer in the international marketplace will depend as much on the marketing and distribution apparatus and skills of the companies that produce these beers, thus raising the issue of whether Anheuser-Busch or Coors will be better able to deliver the product to the consumer. The paper concludes that by this criterion in particular, Bud Light is in a better position than Coors Light.
From the Paper
"Coors has been making progress in the international marketplace as well, but it has also encountered some problems. Canada is a major market for beer, as noted, and Coors had an agreement with Canada's biggest brewer, Molson Breweries, for licensing rights to Coors' top-selling beers in Canada. A dispute arose in 1996 leading to an agreement that Molson would continue to brew and sell Coors Light, Canada's dominant light beer, and Original Coors through June 30, 1997, with doubts about what would happen after that. A court ruling had found that Molson had breached its licensing deal by allowing Miller Brewing Co., a unit of Philip Morris Cos. Inc., to buy a 20 percent stake without Coors' consent in 1993. Molson Breweries is also owned 40 percent each by Toronto-based Molson Cos. Ltd. and Australia's Foster's Brewing Group Ltd. Molson had to pay Coors damages in the millions of dollars (Schuettler, "Coors/Molson Agree"). Coors Light is the dominant light beer in Canada, commanding a 5 to 5.5 percent share of the beer market, and Coors can ill-afford to ignore this market (Schuettler, "Molson Shares Dive")."

From the Paper
"Two recent novels--Dogeaters by Jessica Hagedorn and Rolling the R's by R. Zamora Linmark--illuminate different aspects of the Filipino experience, the first set in Manila and so in the Filipino homeland, the second in Hawaii and so a reflection of the immigrant experience in America. Both works reflect the difficulty faced in the conflict between the old culture and the new. In both books, the older generation is tied to the culture of the Philippines while the younger generation is seduced by American popular culture. In Dogeaters, this conflict takes place in the Philippines as the powerhouse of American popular culture beckons to the young. In Rolling the R's, the conflict takes place in Hawaii as people who have immigrated form the Philippines are exposed even more directly to American life and culture. The themes of class conflicts, assimilation, and the.."

Abstract
This paper discusses how the proportion of nurses who reported working schedules that actually exceed the Institute of Medicine's recommendations should be a red flag for the industry concerning fatigue and health risks to nurses and patient safety. The paper takes a look at various literary studies reviewing this issue.
From the Paper
"During the past ten years, there have been dramatic changes within the health care industry, primarily due to an increased emphasis on cost reduction, and nurses, who are the largest segment of the healthcare workforce, have been significantly affected by the changes (Trinkoff; Geiger-Brown; Brandy; Lipscomb; Muntaner 2006).
The elimination of jobs within the industry has resulted in extended work schedules for the nurses who are still employed. The authors of the study explain that "extended work schedule" is defined as one that varies from the standard 8 hours per day, 35-40 hours per week, and includes "long work hours, irregular schedules, on-call requirements, mandatory overtimes, and rotating shifts, or combinations of these" (Trinkoff; Geiger-Brown; Brandy; Lipscomb; Muntaner 2006). Previous research has found that such scheduling practices have been used to address staffing crises and also as a means to accommodate daily staffing requirements. "

Block Scheduling, 2002.
A discussion of the affects of block scheduling on student academic achievement.
5,418 words (approx. 21.7 pages), 18 sources, MLA, $ 133.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines the concept of block scheduling in education which is the overall strategy of organizing the day into fewer, but longer, class periods to allow flexibility for instructional activities. Block scheduling is used primarily at middle school and high school levels. It looks at how the expressed goal of block scheduling programs is to improve student academic performance and how some other benefits are increased student and teacher morale, encouragement for the use of innovative teaching methods that address multiple learning styles and an improved atmosphere on campus.
Outline
Introduction
Advantages and Disadvantages of Block Scheduling
Comparative Analysis on Block Scheduling and Traditional Scheduling on Academic Achievement
Block Scheduling Reforms Classroom Teaching Techniques
Effects of Block Scheduling on Academic Achievement
Popularity of the Block Schedule
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Another concern about block schedules is that it might be a problem for students who transfer. However, this concern is invalid because the implementation of a block schedule allows students to actually take more courses or up to eight classes per year instead of the six or seven in a traditional plan. While absences might be difficult to make up in a block schedule, some schools have implemented one day of Saturday school each month to give students the opportunity to make up work and class time. Since the traditional schedule has students change class several times a day, discipline problems might arise that might not occur with the block schedule because instructional time is not fragmented as frequently with the transition of changing classes."

The Dual Nature of Light
From the Paper
"If it is part of the material world, it is certainly, by dint of its surpassing subtlety, the part that is closest to the spirit, said Johannes Kepler in his description of light (Holt, 1). As elusive and mystical as the Almighty, light has been a companion, rivaled only by oxygen, to mankind since men first trod upon the earth, an eternal, comforting friend. It terrified and was deified by the men and women of religion; it fascinated and frustrated the theorists, the scientists, and countless cracks; and yet for both it offered an enigma to be solved, a question worthy of an answer. Thus, from the foothills of Classical Greece to the stone castles of Italy and Germany, humanity found itself hounded by a question seemingly so basic: What is light? This question remains only marginally answered at the end of this century, three millennia after the Greeks first hypothesized about the subject. Although centuries upon centuries of labor and experiments have led to millions of dusty binders and folders, only two camps ever gained the blessings of science in a quest for a solution: those who believed light to be a particle and those who believed it to be a wave.

From the Paper
"Light rail systems typically are operated by electricity that is delivered through overhead lines. Occasionally, they use a third rail for its electrical power, whether they are standard or special third rail systems that only transmit power when the train is on that segment of the track. A few use diesel powered trains; however, this is often used as an interim measure until funding is available for the installation of electric power."

From the Paper
"HP had disappointing profits, especially in wake of the software boom and increased competition from other technology companies catering to business solutions. Divisions had even more disappointing figures and have showed a very low productivity rate. There has also been a high staff turnover and increased absenteeism, (Georgetown Case Study, n.d., p 2). There are some blatant internal issues affecting the HP, which are centered on lack of creativity and flexibility within the technology unit; especially with competition that was innovative and creating more effective products. Similarly, employees were being constantly lured away by our competitor."

Abstract
This paper discusses the concept of divine light. It investigates the origin of the concept and how it is integrated with social values and ideals of various times throughout history. The paper discusses the history of divine light and suggests that in these modern times, the concept of the divine has stretched and evolved to include a variety of principles, religions and lifestyles. The paper gives examples of its use and particularly focuses on the concept of divine light in architecture.
Table of Contents:
Introduction: Divine Light
Divine Light in Architecture
Greek Temples
Early Christian Architecture
Medieval Christian Churches
Baroque churches
Modern Churches
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Instead, Tadao Ando asserts that a universal spirituality is possible through the use of natural forces. This in turn is reminiscent of the enclosures around Greek Temples, where natural elements were used to connect the human spirit to the divine. Ando recognizes that the divine, if architecture is going to be truly universal, is largely undefined by the paradigms of modern society. We live in an integrated world. Ando therefore uses natural elements that appeal universally to the human spirit. This provides for a "divine light" that is flexible: human beings can use its effect to connect to any form of the divine that pleases them. In this integrated approach, Ando emphasizes the creative force, once assumed to be from exterior or supernatural forces, that comes from within the spirit. As such, his work is a true integration of modern social values."

Airline Crew Scheduling, 2007.
A discussion of the challenges faced in scheduling airline crews.
1,176 words (approx. 4.7 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 40.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses crew-pairing optimization, which is the method by which airlines schedule crews for flights. The importance of this practice, along with several problems are explored, especially in light of cost, legal factors and Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) requirements. The difficulties associated with the construction of crew pairings are also evaluated. A sample crew-pairing is included to illustrate the possible problems in this area. The writer also alludes to recent technological developments, such as computer programs, that will help maximize the efficiency and minimize costs of effective airline crew scheduling.
From the Paper
"Older technology for the process of crew-pairing optimization entailed the solution of several problems sequentially (Anbil et al., 1992). The first problem to be solved was known as the daily problem, which assumed that the flight segments are flown on a daily basis. The examination of this daily problem allowed the overall problem to become more tractable and it also contributed to crew assignment regularity (Anbil et al., 1992). "

Abstract
This paper discusses the symbolism of the green light in F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby." The paper discusses how Nick, the narrator, describes the green light in the novel, but never clearly states its meaning. The paper attempts to understand the meaning of the green light by focusing on what the green light means to Gatsby, what he learns about the green light and the commentary that Nick provides as narrator.
From the Paper
"The final statement about the green light is made in the novel's closing line. At this point, Nick is remembering how Gatsby once reached for the green light. Nick states that Gatsby's dream must have seemed so close, but that it was already behind him. This makes a strong statement about Gatsby's dream being unattainable. It is not only saying that Gatsby did not achieve his dream, but that it was always impossible for him to reach. In effect, he failed before he even started. At this point, Nick understands Gatsby dream because Nick has just realized that his own dreams were also unattainable. Just like Gatsby, Nick came to West Egg seeking something from his life, and just like Gatsby, Nick is disappointed with what he has found. It is at this point that Nick realizes that every person has their own personal dreams and hopes that will turn out to be futile."
