Abstract
This essay will discuss the Sheppard Subway line: how it came into being, what criticisms are put against this project both in the past and today. This essay will argue that, even though the subway line cost a lot of money and is projected to cost a lot more, such spending is necessary to the city of Toronto since it shows that the city is willing to invest in itself and this leads to more spending on the part of business and residents.

From the Paper
"Whereas it is apparent that training implications and concerns are needed for Internal threat/ shrinkage, a lot of OBM practitioners undertake an assessment prior to interfering, the details of such evaluations do not find coverage in writing. It is important to conduct an organizational functional assessment before intervention to find out variables responsible for maintaining cash shortages, and an intervention package comprising of feedback and responsibility was implemented based on the outcomes of the evaluation. The impact of the intervention package was assessed with an ABAB reversal design. At the time of baseline, daily cash shortages averaged $2.27. When the feedback and accountability package was executed, average cash shortages were lowered to $0.06 daily. A rise in average daily cash shortage to $7.78 was observed at the time when the intervention package was taken away. At the time when the feedback and accountability package was reinstated, average daily cash shortages lowered to $0.19. The outcomes of the present study recommend that novice practitioners can successfully use organizational functional assessment in order to diagnose and rectify performance problems.

Abstract
This paper looks at aspects of marketing that seem to help restaurants, in general, together with an understanding of the Subway restaurants chain, in particular. It examines how, although it is considered part of the fast food category, the emphasis of Subway is, however, on the health aspect of the food that it serves. It serves sandwiches of either one feet or six inches long of all different types, including meat, cheeses, vegetables, or other toppings. It shows how the main advertising and publicity theme is the weight reduction that is possible by eating at Subway.
From the Paper
"A product for the general public is viewed in marketing terms more as a sales exercise than a publicity exercise. (Buttle, 1996) Marketing is generally considered as the sexier stepsister to the soot covered and dirties ?Cinderella? of sales. Yet, the fairy godmothers of certain business have changed the conditions that take Cinderella to the ball for eventual marriage to the prince. In academic and business circles, the sales force and the sales management are often viewed as the part of the promotional or communications elements of the marketing mix. This view is reflected in the traditional concept of the 4-Ps of marketing. The strategic importance of sales in certain businesses has not been fully appreciated and the degrees of importance of integrating the sales activity into the wider marketing activities of the organization are not realized."

From the Paper
"While Subway sandwiches are certainly popular, the company must be careful not to fall into the trap of believing that it must continually change its offerings in order to remain the market leader. Change is good in moderate amounts; smart executives, indeed, will carefully monitor consumer preferences in order to ensure company strategies are in line with them. However, too much change too soon can cause a company to lose favor with customers, as the reasons for a company's popularity begin to be erased."

Abstract
This paper presents a marketing potential analysis for a new Subway location. The paper looks at a number of factors including location, demographics, income, population trends and socio-economic trends. The paper concludes that market potential exists for the location in question.
From the Paper
"Market potential is one of the most important factors in determining the location of any business. If the market potential for the area is not large enough for a particular business then that business will fail because it will not have a big enough customer base. This part of the paper will examine the market potential for new Subway store that will possibly be built at 526 Yonge Street (Appendix 1). Basically we want to know if the area in which this store is located will have the right set of conditions to provide a large enough customer base."

"On The Subway" by Sharon Olds, 2000.
An analysis of the poem's portrait of society in microcosm on a subway car.

From the Paper
"The poem "On the Subway" by Sharon Olds plays off its title to convey a sense of uncertainty, dread, fear, and urban tension. The poem itself details the feelings experienced by the speaker as she sits on the subway, though the subway itself is not mentioned in the poem itself. The situation is set by the title, and this makes all that follows clear as far as its meaning is concerned. The poet creates a dramatic situation through the eyes of one participant, and while nothing really happens beyond two people observing one another, the poem says much about urban life, racial relations, and accompanying fears.
The first line delineates the situation clearly: "The young man and I face each other" (1). This remains the situation throughout the poem--neither leaves, neither moves, neither approaches the other. We know this is taking place on a subway..."

From the Paper
"In 1965, 17-year old Fred DeLuca borrowed one thousand dollars from his friend Peter Buck and began making submarine sandwiches in Milford, Connecticut. In 1974, DeLuca and Buck began offering franchises under the Subway name. Their goal is to have 8,000 stores open in 1995. The company added 1,000 stores in 1991, and company-wide sales increased from 360 million dollars in 1987 to 1.4 billion dollars in 1991.. At the end of 1991, there were 6,187 stores opened worldwide, including in Canada and Japan.. In order to understand the growth of Subway, it is necessary to understand the company's philosophy regarding its product, its franchising philosophy and its internal structure. These factors can help illustrate the company's plans for the future, as well.
Subway franchises have been successful because of their..."

L.A. Subway, 2005.
This paper examines the rail system building project in Los Angeles and questions the value of it.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses how Los Angeles is a city that once had an extensive rail system and then abandoned it. The paper explains how more recently, the city has undertaken a massive building project with rail lines above ground and a subway line underground to cover much of the area of the city. The paper notes that the subway portion of the system has been the most costly, the most problem-plagued and the most disruptive to businesses and residents of the city. The paper contends that the high costs may be too high when compared to the benefits of the finished system. On the other hand, the paper shows that the system may develop into a valuable means of reducing above-ground traffic, with all of the ills that this entails.

From the Paper
The world's oldest subway is not in New York or Paris but in London. The subway followed the development of the above-ground railway system in England and then went underground for a rapid transit system for the city long before the term "rapid transit" had been devised.
Historians disagree about when the first true railway was opened, but most believe it to have been the Liverpool and Manchester, opened in 1830, and linking one of Britain's largest ports with the nation's largest textile manufacturing center (Tames 78). The Surrey Iron Railway came in 1803 and the Stockton and Arlington in 1825 are also candidates, but the Liverpool and Manchester was the first to carry both passengers and freight solely by use of steam power. By 1850, there was a national railway network covering more than 6,000 miles and..."

From the Paper
"London?s first railway was the London and the Greenwich. Most early lines (London and Birmingham 1837; Great Western 1838) were trunk lines, and suburban traffic developed tardily. When it did, it focused primarily on City Termini, the London, Brighton and South Coast to London Bridge; the North London, to Broad Street.
"G.M. Davies, the author of Geology of London and South East England makes the following point: ?From the 1860s certain lines were compelled to run cheap workmen?s trains at very low fares; this brought about the development of workers? suburbs in Tottenham and Walthamsow by 1900.? (Davies, p.66)
"After nationalization of the railways in 1948, King?s Cross, Liverpool Street, Marylebone and Fenchurch Street stations had headquarters offices for the Eastern Region..."

Female Executions in U.S., 2001.

From the Paper
"By the end of the last decade, there were 35 or more women facing execution and living on Death Row in the United States (Baldauf, 1998). If statistics are any indicator, America's justice system is often very reluctant to execute female felons. Baldauf (1998) has reported on studies demonstrating that while women account for one out of every eight Americans arrested for murder, they also represent only one out of seventy of the people who are sentenced to Death Row. Though women are screened out of the process all the way through the criminal justice system, in recent years, the execution of Karla Faye Tucker has fostered renewed attention to the question of how the justice system treats female felons convicted of crimes sufficient to warrant the application of the death penalty. This brief report will consider the question of two women currently on Death Row - both in Texas -..."

The Steven Truscott Case: Justice, Culture and Social Order, 2008.
An analysis of the Steven Truscott case and its impact on the criminal justice system in Canada.

Abstract
This paper examines the legal issues emerging from the Steven Truscott case of the late 1950s, a case that broke new ground in shaping and shaking popular understandings of the Canadian criminal justice system. Particular attention is focused on social and cultural factors - especially attitudes towards sexuality and media pressure contributing to a rush to convict - as contributing elements to this case. Comparisons are drawn to a similar case in the United States at this time - the Sam Sheppard trial - to illustrate how this situation is not limited to Canadian law but, in fact, reflects wider social and cultural realities. Increasing anti-institutional sentiments in both Canada and the United States have contributed to a revisiting of both cases, sentiments that both cases also played a role in shaping.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Culture and Sexuality
Tunnel Vision and the Issue of Disclosure
The Sheppard Case, Media and Authority
Conclusion
From the Paper
"One of the major legal problems to emerge from the Truscott trial was one of disclosure or discovery. As the Daum story reveals, the culture of the 1950s - which placed much more faith in the honesty and integrity of law enforcement officials than today -allowed law enforcement officials to effectively bury evidence that may have been of assistance to the Truscott defense. Indeed, it may be argued that cases such as Truscott contributed to an evolution in criminal law in such matters: "Rules of evidence today oblige the Crown and the police to disclose all the relevant information they turn up in the course of their investigations" (Sher 299)."
