Abstract
The paper discusses how some enterprising economists have made the argument that the infamous tech-bubble of the late 1990s and first part of 2000 could actually be interpreted as an expression of an efficient market merely correcting itself. The paper explains that this concept is also expressed as a rational bubble as opposed to an irrational bubble, to make the argument that, in effect, the high-tech stock meltdown beginning in April of 2000 was only a normal market correction in an, admittedly, over-heated market.

High-Tech Jargon, 2005.
This paper discusses high-tech jargon and its function and dysfunction in society.

Abstract
This paper explains that, when used in conjunction with technology, the word 'jargon' refers to words, which describe things or ideas specific unfamiliar and often nonsensical to the layperson. The author points out that jargon is not always bad because no pre-existing word sufficient to talk about the new thing or idea and new inventions or developments must be described; much like slang words. These jargon words can be gradually assimilated by non-specialists until they no longer seem like jargon. The paper relates that, if a specialist uses jargon to obscure the meaning of an object or concept that would in different words be easily understandable to the majority of people, then jargon can be unethical as often happens in marketing especially advertising of high-tech products.
From the Paper
"The result is an advertising department's paradise. Over the past fifty years or so, the layperson has seen technology get better and more complex at a startling rate. It is the judgment that more complex technology is better that is crucial here. The notion that complexity increases with quality leads to a concept of technology which almost ensures that the less a consumer understands about a high-tech product, the more likely he will be to purchase the product."

There have also been put forward many more explanations for these anomalies in asset pricing than there have been ..."

Canadian Drug Laws: Flying High or High Flying?, 2005.
A discussion on the current marijuana policies in Canada.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper supports decriminalization rather than legalization of marijuana and bases its rationale on the assumption that legalization is politically untenable. While the criminal elements of the marijuana industry are examined they are examined in the light that the marijuana industry would not generate the profit margins that the criminal industry usually demands if marijuana were decriminalized.
From the Paper
"The legality of marijuana in Canada seems to be more of a matter of legal semantics than any pragmatic change in legal practice. As one pundit notes, "Officially, possession of cannabis is a crime and first-time offenders face a maximum sentence of a $1,000 fine or six months in jail, or both...Unofficially, the law is in tatters...(Bergman, 2003, para.3). It is this tenuous status quo that receives the most criticism while the debate about legalizing/decriminalizing or toughening/enforcing marijuana statutes receives the most intellectual attention. The polarity on either side of the marijuana debate acknowledges that the policy as it currently exists, is unsustainable. The following research and argument is intended to support the decriminalization of marijuana as opposed to the legalizing of marijuana. "

Housing Bubble, 2008.
This paper focuses on the understanding of the housing market, discussing the price of housing and sudden changes in the prices - so as to explore the sustainability of the argument that there exists a housing bubble that is about to burst.

Abstract
In this article, the writer outlines how demand and supply analysis can be used to analyze the housing market, especially in wake of the fact that there is now increased speculation of a housing crash as prices begin to depreciate rapidly within the housing market. With these current changes on the market, the writer notes that it becomes somewhat useful to analyze whether the housing bubble is about to burst, or if other markets are affecting the activities within the housing spectrum. The writer argues that the housing bubble is not going to burst since there is no bubble - and changes in the housing prices are due to changes in market demand and supply conditions.
Outline:
Statement of Problem - Thesis Statement
Introduction
What Has Been Causing The Price of Housing to Appreciate and Depreciate So Rapidly? - An Economic Perspective
Housing Price Appreciation - A Bubble or Changes in Market Conditions?
A Brief Look at the US Housing Policy and Market
Conclusion
From the Paper
" With the demand and supply for housing analyzed, then the concept of the equilibrium within the housing market can be examined. It is clear that changes within the economy will affect the price of housing; each of the relevant changes will be analyzed below, so as to test the thesis statement presented. The changes in supply and demand are causing housing prices to increase, even though the change in quantity is unsure. During the historical period analyzed, factors that caused supply and demand to change based on figure 1 and figure 2 were associated with the appreciation of housing prices. Hence the appreciation was due more so to market conditions rather than a bubble due to speculation. A thorough examination of the processes that affect supply and demand is presented in the section below."

Abstract
This paper studies the concept of market efficiency as it applies to the United Kingdom. The paper begins with a definition of the Efficient Markets Hypothesis, followed by an analysis of anomalies to this concept. Empirical observations about the January effect and the weekend effect are offered. The paper concludes with a comparison between the concept of market efficiency in the UK and other European countries. Market Efficiency January Effect Weekend Effect Anomalies and the Efficiency Market
From the Paper
"Market Efficiency could be defined as a concept of Efficient Markets Hypothesis. EMH follows that stock prices reflect information. The basic concept is that if markets are efficient then information of abnormal nature could be reflected simultaneously into the market. As a result of this effect, prices are also effected. On the other hand if markets are inefficient newly generated information will have a slower effect into the market thereby change in prices is also slow."

The Economic Efficiency of Taxation in Canada, 2002.
Examines the efficiency of taxation, especially income tax, to the economics of Canada, using the ideas of Joseph E. Stiglitz as a reference.

Abstract
Few would argue that our present system of taxation in Canada is an economically efficient one. While this is not entirely surprising, considering the polemical value inherent to taxation itself, it is a contention worthy of verification. Indeed, it is the objective of this paper to scrutinize the economic efficiency of taxation, with specific regard to income tax. The work of Joseph E. Stiglitz, which will be highlighted throughout this paper, proves helpful in both elucidating the issues surrounding the economic efficiency of taxation and some possible strategies to make it more efficient.

"Equality and Efficiency", 2007.
A critical thinking analysis of "Equality and Efficiency" by Arthur Okun.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper analyzes Arthur Okun's book, "Equality and Efficiency," which conceptually discusses the roots of equality and efficiency in the economic domain of human society. It describes the 'loopholes' in Okun's arguments and cites passages and paraphrased discussions in the book to illustrate the points. The paper posits that Okun's assertions and arguments in supporting his analysis of the relationship between equality and efficiency are insufficient and ineffective because of the persistence of fallacies, lack of data support and questionable conceptual and theoretical analyses.
From the Paper
"One of the most evident faults in his discussion and analysis of the relationship between equality and efficiency was his consistent avoidance of delving into the theoretical and conceptual roots of the issues surrounding the inefficiency problem. In Chapter 1, theoretical issues were left unanswered, wherein the author argued that these theoretical issues will not be covered or will not be the focus of his analysis. These issues included a 'survey' of the socio-demographic environment that may be considered as main factors or determinants of inefficiency and inequality in human society. Embedded in this faulty analysis is the fallacy of wishful thinking, wherein Okun stated how his purposeful choice to leave theoretical issues not discussed "merely reflects my choices, and I hope they are accepted as reasonably rational" (3)."

Abstract
This paper explains that, while research indicates there is a belief that Adidas makes better footwear than Nike, Adidas has been unsuccessful in penetrating the young hip-hop crowd that has grown up with i-pods, blogs and video games. The author stresses that Adidas is looking to appeal to this younger generation through the technology that they have become used to using. The paper relates that, with this focus on technological innovation, Adidas is going high tech with everything from high tech sneakers, high tech virtual stores and high tech promotions. The author states that this high tech strategy is moving into its internal operations departments, adopting a better delivery system, increasing retail distribution and taking customer service to a new level beyond satisfaction to delight. The paper relates that this plan is trying to obtain return and possibly lifetime customers, which would be very profitable for the company.
Table of Contents:

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Adidas is looking at the changing interests of the up and coming market who also have i-pods, video games, email, internet, youtube and other highly technological devises as a way of life rather than traditional television or print media. With this change in media delivery, there's also a change from it being one way to two-way communication, and with rapid advances in technology, they expect new and different things, and new and different footwear and sportswear is a way to reach that market."

Abstract
The NASDAQ and the arguments regarding whether or not the NASDAQ?s rapid ascent and decline signifies that the NASDAQ was and is merely an overinflated bubble are discussed in this paper. Part II discusses arguments in favor of the position that the NASDAQ was and is simply one large bubble. In Part III, arguments in favor of the position that the NASDAQ was not and is not merely one huge bubble are raised.
From the Paper
"What the stock-market indicators do not reveal, but that the free-fall offered a rare glimpse of, is the disturbing growth of ?digital sweatshops,? anti-union policies, mandatory urine testing, and harsh working conditions which would not be accepted in other professions. (Burns). Slave-driven coders and programmers who are scrapped by age thirty-five, call center support staff, and marketing specialists trapped by their own psychographic profile are the new under-class. (Burns)."

Abstract
This paper argues that energy conservation is not something that can be easily overlooked because lack of efficiency in the utilization of energy is costing the US dearly. The paper first explains what is
meant by energy efficiency and then goes on to discuss the advantages of using renewable sources of energy. The paper concludes that we have to become more efficient and economical when it comes to energy and at the same time, we need to become actively involved in adopting greener sources of energy.
From the Paper
"Solar energy that causes less pollution than coal-based energy is not used as often as we should because it cannot be created with as much ease as the latter source. In order to translate solar power into electricity, greater power generation prowess is to be utilized. This is what has led to decreased use of renewable sources. Everywhere we see, the energy that we are consuming is coming from sources other than sun and wind. Interestingly while rapidly vanishing reservoirs of energy are easier to produce, they cannot be replenished with ease and the exact opposite is true for renewable sources.".
