Establishing and Maintaining Good Client Relations
Total Quality Management, customer satisfaction
index, zero defects, client service - all are
buzzwords of management in the 1990 s. Yet what is
all this about anyway? After all, lawyers and law
firms successfully made it through the ' 80 s
without all the commotion about quality and
service. Why all the fuss now? Is this just
another fad, some passing fancy that will come and
go like Hula-Hoops, disco dancing or designer
jeans? Hardly. While th...

to look at is that there should be absolutely no
prayer of any kind in public schools. Bob Croddy

Christian Science Monitor United States Population

In my opinion, one of the most controversial
topics in the Supreme Court is the idea of capital
punishment. The Eighth Amendment of the United
States constitution guarantees freedom from cruel
and unusual punishment but the Supreme Court has
upheld the constitutionality of the death penalty
in todays society. Thirty-eight states and the
federal government authorize capital punishment
and the number of people on death row has risen to
more than 3, 500 (Clear and Cole). Of the yearly
22, 000 arres...

Death Penalty Capital Punishment
716 words
Death Penalty Killing a criminal does not
constitute serving justice. Today s system of
capital punishment is made with many inequalities
and injustices. The commonly offered arguments for
the death penalty are filled with holes. It was a
deterrent. It removed killers. It was the ultimate
punishment. It is biblical. It satisfied the
public s need for retribution. It relieved the
anguish of the victim s family. Realistically, the
death penalty is expensive and time consuming.
Also, it has yet to ...
