...awake the next morning to find her lying on the bathroom floor barely alive. Not only do you panic but you rush her to the nearest Emergency Room for treatment and the hospital staff pronounces her dead in a matter of hours. This is what happened to the parents of little Mary Kellerman of Illinois just a few days before similar cases began to spread over neighboring cities. Mary’s parents soon learned what happened to their little girl, after two off-duty firefighters alerted health officials of the connection of the sudden deaths and Tylenol (Weiss, 2006). In this paper, the author will discuss the affect “The Tylenol Crisis had on Johnson & Johnson and the company’s stakeholders using the six-step ethics issue resolution process. Defining the Issue In the fall of 1982, McNeil Consumer Products, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, faced a crisis that claimed the lives of seven individuals in Chicago, Illinois. After two local firefighters who were home listening to his or her police radio, discovered that the information retrieved from each incident involved the consumption of Tylenol. After testing, the remaining Extra Strength Tylenol capsules retrieved contained 65 milligrams of cyanide poisoning. This was considered 10,000 times more than what was needed to kill someone. After the connection was made between the seven deaths and Extra Strength Tylenol, Johnson & Johnson had to find an avenue to make public this awful finding. However,...

...Gentlemen, scholars, athletes, let us imagine what would have happened had Babe Ruth, the greatest player of all time, had had a Negro doppelganger, let’s call him Benjamin Smith. The Sultan of Swat went to a prestigious white Catholic school where he played in competitive leagues with all the best white players of his generation. He was, it is well known, a strong boy famous in his community from a young age for crushing long balls through the streets of Pigtown and into the windows of neighboring houses. His heroics on the field at St. Mary’s during his schoolboy days had given him a taste of his future and he needed more, seeking out a new opportunity in Baltimore with the Orioles. He quickly got to work at the plate, making a name for himself...

...Evaluate feminist views on the role of religion in society today. [33 marks] Feminism is a structural theory that takes a conflict view upon society. They view religion as a socially constructed institution in society that promotes patriarchy and is a tool used by men to oppress women. Feminism point out that religion is founded upon male-values, and use the example of Mary Magdalen’s unknown marriage to Jesus as a key point. However, some may point out that Feminist views on religion are outdated as religion today is less prevalent and no longer holds these patriarchal values as they previously have, and if there are any left, they are quickly disappearing. Firstly, a strength of Feminist views on religion is that they have recognised and criticised the inequality that is prevalent in religious organisations. They point out that women are not allowed access to the upper positions in the religious hierarchy in many of the traditional religions. For example, Orthodox Judaism and Catholicism forbid women to become priests. Karen Armstrong says to this that ‘the exclusion of women from the priesthood as evidence of their marginalisation’. On the other hand, the Church of England allowed for female vicars in 1994, and more recently in 2014/5, allowed for female bishops, with Libby Lane being the first. In addition, on the 12th January 2016, New Jersey Synagogue announced that they had hired the first female Orthodox Rabbi. However, one could point out that although women can...

...Mother Teresa’s Simple Path Roshan M Royce HS 122 NX Saint Peter’s College Mother Teresa’s Simple Path Planet earth in the twenty first century is a very complex habitat. Planet earth is not just complex because of the wide range of nature and animal life thriving but rather because of one special inhabitant, human beings. In many ways, humans are the best and worst thing that ever happened to our world. Our ego had driven this beautiful planet to the verge of near destruction with wars, violence and protests, terrorism and other forms of bloodshed. Today, if there is a conflict in terms between nations or even among people of the same nation on a particular matter, hate and disgust flow like a river and people alienate nations and groups of people on the basis of silly blind reasons such as skin color, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, race, religion, language, wealth and standing in society. History has provided the inhabitants of the earth with many opportunities to learn from their mistakes, mistakes that range from an individual level to nations or union of nations. Yet the sorrow remains that the nations have failed to learn and change either due to selective ignorance or from arrogance. But history never quits. History is always searching for the wise to provide knowledge and understanding like a parent, like a teacher or guru with tears in the eyes. We shall look at one of the best lesson that history has provided us in the person of Mother Teresa. Mother...

...Gangs and Organized Crime in the United States Criminal Justice Janaree Nagel 10/15/2011 Gangs and Organized Crime in the United States is on the rise. With the increase in turf wars, position and the financial gains, gang wars and Organized Crime are linked together in many ways. Within this paper, I will show how they are all tied together in. The M-13’s are the largest reported gang controlling large areas of our states. However, the largest area to which the MS-13’s control is within our own capital, Washington D.C. Their leaders rule all the gangs from inside El Salvador. I will discuss other gangs, and their ties into Organized Crime. Gangs and Organized Crime in the United States When I first began this research, I was stunned by the number of gangs that can be accounted for living on US soil. I wasn’t shocked by the type of activities that they are involved in ranging from drug trafficking, carjacking, murder, rape and kidnapping. The news media is constantly reporting the ages to which individuals join a gang, and the reasons behind their becoming involved. Most that join look for acceptance, and are often from families that have one parent, typically run by their mother who represents head of the household. While others join gangs because they believe it will make others respect them. Throughout our course study, we have discussed a number of things concerning the criminal...

Renault would eventually backtrack on the firing of the executives, rehiring all three...

...information contact Sukhwinder Arora at the Department for International Development, New Delhi, India. ii PREFACE Over the last 15 years initiatives to provide financial services to poor people (the ‘microfinance industry’) have come on by leaps and bounds in terms of size and reputation. Despite this, the industry is still only in its adolescence and our understanding of why and how poor and very poor people use microfinancial services ( and why many choose not to use the services that are available) remains partial at best. This essay takes the reader on a ‘voyage of discovery’ that seeks to both deepen her/his understanding and encourage her/him to apply that knowledge to the practice of microfinance. The voyage that Stuart Rutherford offers is a unique one based upon years of careful and detailed personal research. It does not take a deductive approach that develops a theoretical model of the financial behaviour of poor people. Nor does it follow the ‘case study plus best practice’ approach that has been favoured by many practitioners when they write of microfinance. Instead, it adopts an inductive approach - based on thousands of conversations and meetings with poor people discussing what financial services they use and need - backed up by the personal experience of running an experimental microfinance institution (SafeSave). This is an innovative methodology and one that courts considerable risks, not least that it might produce many interesting insights but...
