Abstract
This paper discusses and analyzes the topic of the C and C++ programming languages. Specifically, it discusses some common applications of the language. C, and its derivative, C++, two of the most commonly-used programming languages in the world. They are versatile, easy to work with, and help the programmer create complicated yet functional programs for the end-user.
From the Paper
"The C programming language was developed for large-scale applications, and it is still used extensively in the UNIX environment. It is also heavily utilized in computer games. Initially, C was developed to program and organize the UNIX operating system in the 1970s. As the language evolved, it was used (and still is used) extensively to program personal computers (PCs), and develop programs for them. Originally, C was developed for use in applications that had little space for memory. C uses very little memory, and so it was perfect for these applications. As one expert writes about the language, "Yet it was designed to allow programmers to do heavy-duty 'systems' programming, working on such basic software plumbing as operating systems, compilers, and the like" (Lohr 79). Many experts have compared C to FORTRAN, because it opened up a whole wealth of applications in higher-level languages. FORTRAN gave the programmer the opportunity to program larger machines with bigger programs, especially in engineering and scientific applications."

Abstract
This paper discusses the delicate balance between the sanctity of lawyer-client privilege and the need to protect society. The paper begins by defining money laundering and presenting examples of lawyers who have been involved in money laundering. The paper then explains why the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) views lawyers as potential "gatekeepers" of the money laundering process. Next, the paper discusses the sanctity of lawyer-client privileges. A discussion on law enforcement efforts to balance the rights of the individual vs. the protection of society then follows. The paper concludes that this ethical dilemma of the relationship between lawyers' right to defend individuals and organized crime involved in money laundering creates topical discussions with no clear answers.
Outline:
Introduction
Money Laundering Defined
Examples of Lawyers Involved in Money Laundering
FATF Describes Lawyers as "Gatekeepers"
Ethics and the Sanctity of Lawyer Client Privilege
Balancing the Rights of the Individual versus the Protection of Society
From the Paper
"Balancing the protection of society versus defending individual rights is an ethical dilemma that criminal defense lawyers may experience. This is especially enhanced when lawyers represent the interests of organized crime. Money laundering endangers the social economic fabric of society and is linked to serious crimes of violence, drug trafficking and terrorism. Legislation is designed to assist law enforcement with investigating and prosecuting crimes such as money laundering. However, legalities have been overcome by professionals such as accountants, bank managers, insurance agents and lawyers. These professionals viewed as potential "gatekeepers" of the money laundering process can easily become embroiled into facilitating the needs of organized crime, either unwittingly or knowingly."

Abstract
In today?s society, lawyers are encouraged to present the option of pursuing alternate dispute resolution to clients as a matter of good practice and lawyers who fail to do so may be subject to malpractice liability. This paper explores the growing popularity of alternate dispute resolution (ADR) due to the high costs, both financially and to relationships, of traditional litigation.
Subtitles in the Paper: Alternate Dispute Resolution; Ethics and Dispute Resolution; The Costs of Conflict; Ethical Issues in Choosing Whether and How to Mediate; Client Satisfaction; Methods of Dispute Resolution in Businesses; The Role of Counsel; Results of Alternate Dispute Resolution; A Lawyer?s Duty to Advise About ADR; Ethical Rules of ADR; Lawyer as Client Representative or Advocate; Lawyers as Neutrals; Conflict of Interest; Malpractice and Negligence; History of ADR; Everyday Disputes; Determining the Role of a Mediator; Conclusion.
From the Paper
"Alternate dispute resolution is a practical business and personal solution, as there are significant costs associated with different ways of resolving disputes, which often outweigh the conflict itself .
The direct costs associated with disputes include the fees of lawyers and other professionals. In 1994, nearly 18 million cases were filed in U.S. courts at a cost of $300 billion.
Productivity costs involve the value of lost time, or the cost of what those involved would otherwise be producing. Continuity cost is the eventual end of relationships that would have continued without the conflict. Emotional cost reflects the pain of focusing on emotions and the problems this can cause psychologically."

Private Practice Lawyers, 2004.
A discussion of the importance of honest private practice lawyers.
1,586 words (approx. 6.3 pages), 6 sources, MLA, £ 35.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper contends that because of the few lawyers that have not lived up to their responsibilities, private practice lawyers are considered by many to be dishonest. It discusses the importance of private practice lawyers being able to bring justice to people who have been wrongly accused and whose constitutional rights have been violated.
From the Paper
"The first step to becoming a lawyer is receiving an education. Receiving a good education is a vital key to the success of lawyers. After receiving a Bachelors degree in a certain major, students must then go to law school which usually takes about 3 years of full time classes to complete. After graduating from law school and passing the American Bar Associations approved Bar exam, the student is free to practice law. The average salary for recent graduates who go into private practice ranges from $40,000 to about $120,000 per year (Thompson 67-73). But because recent grads must usually relocated to a different area, pay off student loans, and acquire a professional wardrobe; many of them struggle to make ends meet the first couple of years after graduating. Due to these expenses, many law students are drawn to private practice, because of the opportunity to make large amounts of money."

From the Paper
"My father, on the other hand, perhaps due to his greater financial resources, seemed to have a different kind of attorney, the kind who actually prepared for court, as well as seemed to have some grasp of what he was doing. You see, according to my mother, while she made her best showing in professional attire (no matter that she worked the night shift in a grocery store and purchased her getup at Goodwill), my father, who was at the time living in style with his new mistress, showed up in a faded work shirt and threadbare blue jeans. As my mother tells it, she went home without the child support increase she so desperately needed, burned the unused documents, notes, and receipts she had so carefully prepared for her ?useless? attorney, and cried herself to sleep in her secondhand suit."

Abstract
This paper reviews the life and history of Mark Antony, born Marcus Antonius. The paper discusses how, thanks to the works of famous writers like Plutarch and Shakespeare, Mark Antony has become a legend. The paper further discusses how his actions following Julius Caesar's death in 44 B.C. and his exploits with Queen Cleopatra have made him interesting reading and a source of entertainment for centuries. However, behind the many stories, there was a man who was a brave general, loyal supporter, dedicated Roman and ardent lover.
From the Paper
"While Caesar was fighting in Egypt and Africa to defeat the last of Pompey's forces, Antonius was given the distinction of being made Master of the Horse (fact). His role was to be a politician and administrator in Italy while Caesar was out of the country. Unfortunately for him, Antonius was not good in that role and was removed in 47 B.C. and even banished from Caesar's sight for two years (unrv). Nevertheless, Antonius was able to work his way back into Caesar's circle; in 44 B.C. he was the one to offer the crown to Caesar, a circumstance much celebrated in the first act of Shakespeare's play, Julius Caesar (unrv)."

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to examine the unfavorable portrayal of judges and lawyers in American literature. The plan of the research will be to cite selected works of American fiction and drama with a view toward showing negative characterizations of persons in the legal profession, in physical appearance, habits, attitudes, and the like.

A negative characterization of the same judge is treated in two works of American literature dealing with the same period of history: the Salem witch trials in Massachusetts in 1692. In The House of the Seven Gables by Nathaniel Hawthorne and the play The Crucible by Arthur Miller, the historical figure of Judge ... "

From the Paper
"Two recent comedy films explore the same essential theme--the importance of telling the truth--though they do so in very different ways. As it happens, both films also feature characters who are lawyers. "Liar Liar"'s main character is a lawyer who embodies the stereotype of the lawyer who is unable to tell the truth and who can lie with great facility because he has been trained to do just that. He is on the verge of achieving great success and becoming a partner in his firm precisely because he is able to lie with such abandon. One of the principle characters in Trial and Error is also a lawyer who in this case has just made partner in his firm, but he is a man with scruples far exceeding those of the head of that firm, leaving the viewer to wonder how he did make partner without compromising himself. He is now faced with a situation which forces him to lie..."

Lawyers in Literature, 1996.
Positive & negative portrayals of lawyers' ethical images in fiction & non-fiction, from servant of society to amoral anti-hero.
2,475 words (approx. 9.9 pages), 17 sources, £ 60.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
From the Paper
"This research paper outlines and discusses the ethical images of lawyers, as they are portrayed in fiction and in non-fiction, including legal writings. For centuries in Western literature-in novels, short stories and plays, lawyers have been cast in a negative light, as corrupt, untrustworthy and shifty, which reflected popular perceptions of the workings of the law. American literature through the Depression continued and elaborated upon this theme. Then, for a relatively brief period in the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, lawyers were seen in fiction in a more positive light, a period which corresponded with the growth of a widespread and more equitably shared prosperity in the United States and a rethinking by many lawyers of their role in society. In the 1980s and 1990s, a new moral image of the lawyer..."
