Abstract
This paper looks at abstinence programs and the distribution of condoms in schools as ways to prevent teen pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS. It looks at various opinions on both sides of the argument and comes out in favor of condom distribution because abstinence-only programs do not work.
From the Paper
"There is an ongoing debate about what to teach in sex education in schools and whether to promote abstinence or to distribute condoms. Part of the debate centers around who should be responsible for such decisions, the parents or the teachers. Opinions vary greatly from state to state and from school to school within states. This lack of consensus of opinion makes it harder on students because they do not know whose advice to follow when they hear conflicting sides of the story. The one thing both ... "

Abstract
For years, the debate over distribution of contraceptives, mainly condoms, within high schools has been a hotly contested issue among law and policy makers, school officials, parents, and students. New studies and research projects have uncovered indisputable proof of the benefits of condom distribution in schools. This paper examines the above-mentioned data and provides an analysis of the current political, social, and medicinal advantages such contraceptive distribution programs provide.
From the Paper
"At the heart of the debate of Condom Distribution is the fear that, by making condoms available in schools, it encourages increased sexual activity among teens. Several studies have been conducted to examine whether or not this phenomenon occurs. One such study (Blake, S. M., Ledsky, R., Goodenow, C., Sawyer, R., Lohrmann, D., and Windsor, R. 2003) took place in 1991 in Massachusetts. Massachusetts instituted a policy allowing condoms to be distributed in its public schools as a way to prevent the spread of the AIDS virus and other sexually transmitted diseases. Opponents of the program claimed it would lead to a higher level of sexual activity among teens. The results of the study revealed quite the opposite."

From the Paper
"The Los Angeles Unified School District has the right to make condoms available to students as a means of preventing the further spread of HIV/AIDS. They have a constitutional right to do this, they have the right granted by the favorable attitude of the great majority of adults, and they have the right to act to prevent students from perpetuating a serious, deadly public health crisis. Many of those who are opposed to the program argue that it encourages students to have sex or that it grants approval to their behavior. It is true that premature sexual activity among adolescents is a serious social problem. But any responsible person would take both problems into account -- the social problem and the health problem. A responsible condom distribution program would ensure that students received comprehensive education about the dangers and causes of HIV/AIDS..."

Abstract
This argumentative paper explains the points of view pro and con of distributing condoms in public schools. It explains the needs to prevent STD's and AIDS vs. the possible promotion of sex via the school system.
From the Paper
"Living with the fear of an irresponsible teenager that could become pregnant or acquired a STD is something that too many parents are doing in our times. With the millions that die every year from AIDS alone is enough to scare most parents. That doesn't even include the millions that acquire the hundreds of other STD's that are out there. The problem for the parent is not how to stop and cure these diseases or how to slow society from the skyrocketing amount of teenage pregnancies, but it is how to prevent their children from falling into this. It is common knowledge that the use of condoms greatly prevents or eliminates the spread of diseases and pregnancy. That is not the controversy. The controversy is who becomes responsible for teaching and distributing these much-needed condoms to the unprotected teenagers. By the time a child is in High School the parents have given the school system the right to educate and protect there children for over a decade, there is no need for this to end over something a life protecting as condoms.

Conclusion
Appendix A
From the Paper
"Home Accessories International (HAI) is a provider of various accessories to the home. Traditionally distribution of goods has been performed via a network of specialised distributors across Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. Senior management has recently decided to migrate an existing product line, windowsill protectors, to an online distribution system (e-tailing) in order to reduce the costs involved in relying on agents to market the goods to retail customers. This will be a test case which will be closely observed by other divisions of HAI. If successful, implementation will be extended throughout the company. E-tailing is unlikely to attract new customers in the first instance and this is not the aim of the project. Management will be satisfied to maintain the existing customer base during the first year of online operation."

Conclusion
Appendix A
From the Paper
"Gripping Stuff Entertainment (GSE) is an entertainment service provider specialising in movie rentals. Traditionally distribution of videos and DVDs was accomplished via the GSE stores from which they were rented. Senior management has recently decided to migrate from the traditional distribution system to an online version in order to reduce costs resulting from physical storefront rentals and maintenance and also in order expand the customer base. A very real risk is that existing customers will be drawn over to competing home entertainment providers while GSE implements this migration. In order to mitigate this risk and also to increase general customer loyalty to the GSE brand, a loyalty programme will be launched and integrated with the new internet distribution channel. Offering loyalty incentives to those customers who choose to utilise the internet mode of distribution will increase internet sales penetration of the market while increasing overall loyalty to GSE."

Distribution, 2008.
A discussion on whether the LeapFrog company should sell its products through Wal-Mart's distribution network, exploring both the pros and cons of such a strategy.

Abstract
The paper discusses whether the company LeapFrog should choose to sell or not to sell through Wal-Mart. The paper refers to the advantages of Wal-Mart's massive distribution network on the one hand and the disadvantages of the rapid over-distribution of a manufacturers' products on the other. The paper states that, while selling to Wal-Mart does generate exponential growth in unit sales, over-distribution of products and the price erosion that Wal-Mart tends to force on suppliers over time are two critical reasons not to sell to Wal-Mart. The paper discusses the marketing strategic plans utilized by Wal-Mart and concludes that LeapFrog needs to build out its own multi-channel selling strategy versus selling through Wal-Mart.
Outline:
Executive Summary
Wal-Mart is Forcing Premature Consolidation of the Toy Industry
Wal-Mart's Distribution Efficiency Yardsticks: Setting Loss Leaders In Motion
Evaluating Distribution Strategies in the Context of Pricing
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Wal-Mart's purchasing economies of scale and focus on supply chain efficiencies, which are briefly described in this paper, all contribute to their ability to price toys below to wholesale price to other retailers. The flattening of pricing elasticities of new toy products greatly impacts the profitability of toy manufacturers themselves. Taking a loss-leader pricing approach to selling toys also forces other retailers either out of business altogether, or into significantly minimized operations."

Abstract
This paper looks at two perspectives or programs that are often used to teach adolescents about the risks of sexual activity and how to decrease these risks. These two perspectives are abstinence and making safer choices about sexual behavior, such as wearing condoms or using contraception. It looks at abstinence as well as birth control in a comparison of these solutions to see which one is more effective with adolescents. It concludes that safe sex behaviors prove to be a more effective and popular solution among teens.
Outline
Introduction
Literature Review
From the Paper
"As the years have progressed, especially in terms of scientific and technological sophistication in the health field in the last century, new methods of contraception have been increasingly effective and successful. But a large part of effective contraception remains awareness and education regarding how to safely and successfully apply these methods. Effectiveness is an important factor to consider when choosing a method of contraception, but this effectiveness only goes as far as the individual making the choice is educated in terms of the successful and correct application of the method of contraception. With new contraceptive methods becoming available all the time, it is
important to keep up with new advances and learn as much as possible about the most effective and efficient means of contraception."

Abstract
This paper explains that sex education became a popular mode of addressing the problem of teenage pregnancy when the issue turned into a pressing and alarming concern. The writer argues that abstinence is found to be the only real and substantial approach to handling the problem, as it is clear that other approaches have failed to produce the desired result. The writer maintains that that abstinence-based programs have been far more effective and successful in bringing down the rate of teenage pregnancies than sex education programs. The writer concludes that abstinence is rightly considered the more effective approach and is thus being implemented in a large number of schools across the country.
From the Paper
"The reason traditional sex education is criticized is because teaching students about safe sex makes them believe that as long as they are using contraceptive, engaging in sexual activity is acceptable and safe. But that sadly is not the truth. There is medical evidence indicating that abstinence and not safe sex is the only reliable method of avoiding pregnancies. One article compared the effectiveness of sex-education programs in schools and found that schools with abstinence-based program had better results. These programs were more effective in preventing teenage sexual activity and pregnancies. Khouzem The Teen-Aid abstinence education curriculum has been widely used in Washington's city of Edinburgh for 5 years."

Sex Education: Safety or Abstinence?, 2002.

Abstract
This paper explains that 81 percent of parents and guardians polled favor sex education programs that teach all aspects of sex and sexuality, which include how to use birth control and how to protect against STDs, instead of the widespread abstinence-only and dangers of sex program. The author stresses that, even with most schools teaching abstinence-only programs, the approach isn?t working very well; teenagers are not abstaining from sex. The paper concludes that teaching teens about the dangers of STDs and the consequences and responsibility that surrounds sexual relationships may actually be reinforcing abstinence as the safest way.
From the Paper
?In 1996, a companion bill was put onto the Welfare Reform Act. This bill budgeted $440 million over the span of five years to support abstinence-only sex education. In order for school districts to receive funding, they are required to tell the kids that ?sexual activity outside the context of marriage is likely to have harmful psychological and physical effects? and that ?a mutually faithful monogamous relationship in the context of marriage is the expected standard of human sexual activity.? The kids are not to be told about condoms, birth control, or any other protection methods except to highlight their failure rates. Right now, every state except California accepts this funding. In recent news, the Bush administration is attempting to put forth an initiative to increase the funding for this abstinence-only policy."

The paper discusses Nokia's refusal to relinquish information about various aspects of its business practices that makes information about its means of distribution difficult to obtain.
From the Paper
"Drawing from our course discussions of chapter 11 of Perrault and McCarthy's text, a few things jump out immediately. For one thing, there is no "one way" for a customer to purchase a text directly; he or she can acquire a text a multitude of different ways. For example, in the last decade or so many distributors became enamored with the idea of the internet and with the possibility that it might serve as a low-cost distribution channel permitting distributors to circumnavigate more costly existing channels; unfortunately, these distributors quickly found that an internet-driven approach to distribution was not necessarily a better way of doing things insofar as things like online theft and the difficulty in a consumer returning an item cut into the expected healthy profits and into the amount of "traffic"."
