Abstract
This paper explains that a "lemon" in an economic market refers to a product of lower than expected quality that is sold at the same price as the normal, higher quality products, and that a "lemon market", which is when a certain market is known to contain lemons, can cause enough damage to the market to cause it to cease to exist. The paper further explains how the information about the product that the buyer and the seller possess can affect the success of the product and whether the lemon principle will come into play.
From the Paper
"From an economic perspective, if the quality of a product cannot be observed first -hand, the buyer uses market statistics to determine the quality of products that are available. This however also can cause a "lemon market", since returns for quality go to the entire group of marketers, instead of just one. Here however the problem is also that an excess of "lemons" causes the average quality of goods to deteriorate, and thus the market size also deteriorates until, as mentioned above, it ceases to exist at all.
Asymmetric Information. Asymmetric information refers to an imbalance in the knowledge possessed by buyers and sellers. Buyers know the quality of their products, i.e. whether they are "lemons" or not, and sellers do not. Because of low buyer confidence as well as a lack of seller integrity, this phenomenon can also lower the quality of products. This is then a disadvantage for all consumers who make use of the relevant market."

Abstract
This paper presents an exploration of the lemon law and discusses the applicable uniform commercial code (UCC) regarding its effectiveness. The paper begins by defining, in detail, the lemon law and the UCC. The writer then uses a court case from New Jersey to further outline what the UCC is and how it governs the sale of goods in general. The paper discusses the specific application of the law with regard to the case it presents.

UCC
The Case
From the Paper
"In this particular case the fact that the buyer had only driven the vehicle for 7/10 of a mile provided strength for the argument of Lemon Law violation."
"Society believes and understands that during the course of a test drive while vehicle shopping there is stress and excitement that may prevent the buyer from being able to detect any flaws of the car. However, the first few miles that the buyer owns the vehicle are accepted by society and the UCC as "exciting" and telling as he or she begins to settle into vehicle ownership. The law understands this and consequently provides a reasonable time period for defects to be discovered and the contract broken."

Southern Women, 2002.

Abstract
This paper discusses how both Lemon "Lemon Swamp and Other Places" by Karen Fields and "The Making of a Southerner" by Katharine Du Pre Lumpkin are personal histories of Southern women. It examines how both books encapsulate lived, autobiographical accounts of Southern life. It evaluates how both books look on a world from the outside in, in Lumpkin?s case a white Southerner gazing at African-American life, in Karen Field?s case, that of a contemporary African-American looking at African-American life of her grandmother?s past.
From the Paper
"Lemon Swamp also gives an alternative vision of the South as often depicted in popular fiction. However, Lemon Swamp is not a tale of the white South at all. Lumpkin?s story is a tale of the South of African-Americans in some respects, but from a white perspective. In contrast, Lemon Swamp tells the story from the point of view of an African-American woman born in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1888. Lemon Swamp is not in an explicit ideological conversation with a romantic ideology. It is more intent upon simply shedding light on both the everyday aspects of Field?s life and the ways in which her community worked together to counteract segregation and poverty. However, in its own way, the book can be seen as a challenge to Lumpkin?s perspective."

Abstract
This paper presents two essays on government regulation. The first essay attempts to show how government regulations protect consumers and businesses and help maintain a stable economy. The paper discusses the merits of regulations about hazardous waste, vehicle lemon laws and monopoly and anti-trust laws. The second essay maintains that government regulations harm the economy by hurting businesses. This view portrays how government regulations are so restrictive that they make it impossible for businesses to operate, which negatively affects both consumers and the economy.
From the Paper
"Since America was in its infancy, the public has looked to federal and state government agencies to protect it from harm. Whether it was the threat of international terrorism or scams from international gold diggers, society has turned to its government and asked it to regulate such activities to protect American residents. While the public recognizes and appreciates such efforts, it quickly changes its tune when it comes to government regulations with regard to business."

Abstract
Throughout our nation?s history ,there has been much disagreement over the role of religion in our country, primarily in the government and in our public school system. In recent years, the controversy over the role of religion in our public schools has been refreshed by various Supreme Court cases, such as Lemon vs. Kurtzman 1971, Engle vs. Vitale 1962, Abingdon Township vs. Schempp 1963, and McCollum vs. Champaign Board of Education 1948. After examining the rulings of these cases, this paper argues that a school prayer amendment is absolutely unnecessary and repetitive; it would only conflict with the long-established, constitutional policy to separate church and state and would interfere with student?s rights to have no religious pressure.
From the Paper
"According to the Analysis of Supreme Court Cases by the Library of Congress, students maintain the right to engage in daily prayer rituals at anytime, distribute religious literature, talk to students about religious belief, wear religious clothing and symbols, and discuss religion in class and in reports (974). By allowing student initiated school prayer, the government is not imposing on a student?s right to free speech in any way. Government supported school prayer, however, is unconstitutional because it inhibits students rights to have any type of religious or non-religious beliefs. Such activity should not be allowed in a state-funded environment such as a public school."

Outline:
Review and Discussion
Background and Overview
Contributions of Blind Musicians
Conclusion
From the Paper
"By the time he reached his majority, Blind Tom possessed a repertoire of hundreds of pieces, all contained in his memory alone. In would appear, that in this individual's case, the inability to see also accentuated his other auditory abilities: "Tom's memory extended to other auditory information besides music: he could repeat without error conversations of up to fifteen minutes that he had overheard. He could also sing back songs in French or German (which, of course, he could not understand) after only one hearing" (Winner, 1996, p. 134). While musical savants may be the rule rather than the exception when it comes to musical genius, there are some well-known examples of blind musical prodigies as well but these musicians have not received as much attention. According to Haroutounian (2000), musical prodigies in general typically reach an advanced stage of development quickly and are capable of pursuing professional careers at an early age; however, some musical prodigies tend to experience a sort of "mid-life crisis" when they reached adolescence: "What happens to the bird who sings and doesn't know how it sings? That's what happens to child prodigies. They wake up and ask themselves dangerous questions about how they do it -- and they have no answers" (Haroutounian, 2000, p. 3). Furthermore, Goldstein (1998) reports that most traditional colleges and universities are ill-prepared to address the special needs of musical prodigies in general and blind students in particular, so it is a wonder that there are any professional blind musicians at all, but some persevere and these individuals are discussed further below."
