Worldcom As An Example Of Creative Accounting And Subsequent Regulations Of The Accounting Industry, Lisa E. Tarras
USF St. Petersburg campus Honors Program Theses (Undergraduate)
The public has long viewed corporate America as ruthless pillagers in the name of profits. Today corporations are blamed for everything from eliminating mom and pop stores and the family farm to draining the environment in the process. Yet somehow no one, congressmen or minimum wage workers alike, were concerned enough to address this brewing epidemic. In the bull market of the 1990's, no one cared what corporations had to do to create profits, as long as those profits, and subsequent dividends and stock options financed their retirement funds. However, the corporate environment is much different today.

Sec Enforcement Heuristics: An Empirical Inquiry, Randall Thomas, James D. Cox
Sec Enforcement Heuristics: An Empirical Inquiry, Randall Thomas, James D. Cox
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
This Article examines the overlap between SEC securities enforcement actions and private securities fraud class actions. We begin with an overview of data concerning all SEC enforcement actions from 1997 to 2002. We find that the volume of SEC enforcement proceedings is relatively modest. We next examine the scope of the recently enacted "Fair Fund" provision that authorizes the SEC to designate civil penalties it recovers from defendants to benefit defrauded private investors. We conclude that this provision offers only limited potential relief for private investors. We complete this Part of the Article with an analysis of the serious resource …

Unfit To Serve: Permanently Barring People From Serving As Officers And Directors Of Publicly Traded Companies After The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Philip F.S. Berg
Unfit To Serve: Permanently Barring People From Serving As Officers And Directors Of Publicly Traded Companies After The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Philip F.S. Berg
Vanderbilt Law Review
On June 4, 2003, lifestyle guru Martha Stewart was indicted on multiple criminal and civil charges by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC or Commission). The charges, including obstruction of justice and civil insider trading, stemmed from Stewart's sale of ImClone stock shortly before the Food and Drug Administration rejected a drug produced by ImClone and sent the company's stock price tumbling. Although Stewart could face a number of serious penalties under her criminal indictment, the primary remedy sought by the SEC for her civil insider trading charges is rather uncommon-a bar from serving as a director of Martha Stewart …

Lawyers In The Perfect Storm, Mark A. Sargent
Lawyers In The Perfect Storm, Mark A. Sargent
Working Paper Series
The multiple corporate collapses and scandals of recent years, for which "Enron" is a convenient shorthand, resulted from a perfect storm in which regulatory oversight, the law of fiduciary duty, gatekeepers, market discipline, and contractual incentives all failed to prevent gross self-dealing, conflicts of interest, and deception, or themselves produced perverse consequences. The story of this simultaneous failure of the structures in place since the New Deal and before, has received considerable attention in both the popular and scholarly literature, but is summarized here to provide a context for consideration of the contributions that lawyers made to the perfect storm. …

Organizational Preparation For Terrorist Attack, Alan Wallace, Vernon Harper
Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology
In the event of a terrorist attack causing mass casualties or nuclear, biological, or chemical contamination, emergency responders easily can be overwhelmed by demands for their services. Advance planning by organizations with the advice of emergency responders to safeguard people from becoming victims, to care for victims before emergency responders arrive, and to render assistance to emergency responders once they arrive is critical to mitigating damage.

Standing Up To Wall Street (And Congress), Richard W. Painter
Standing Up To Wall Street (And Congress), Richard W. Painter
Michigan Law Review
In 1992, Arthur Levitt co-chaired a fundraising dinner for William Clinton. The dinner raised $750,000 (p. 7). Clinton was elected President, and Levitt got the job he wanted: Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Levitt, a former Chairman of the American Stock Exchange and a connected Democrat, was well qualified for the job. His, however, became a pyrrhic victory when accountants, issuers, broker-dealers, and other special interests used their own political connections to frustrate just about everything he sought to do. Levitt tells the story of his struggle against these well-funded interests in Take on the Street. One of …

Common Sense And Civic Virtue: Institutional Investors, Responsible Ownership, And The Democratic Ideal, Marcy Murninghan
New England Journal of Public Policy
On matters of governance, the people’s good is the highest law, as Cicero said two millennia ago. Unfortunately, these days personal greed has trumped the people’s good, enflaming the current governance crisis affecting our public, nonprofit, and private spheres. The spate of corporate governance scandals over the past several years jeopardizes equity investments, harms beneficiaries, and weakens global capital markets. The remedy is not just more laws and regulation but revitalization of the system of corporate checks and balances that already exists. To get better corporate governance, corporate shareowners, especially institutional investors, need to assert their rights and responsibilities more …

Using Neural Net Technology To Analyze Corporate Restructuring Announcements, Owen P. Hall Jr., Charles J. Mcpeak
Using Neural Net Technology To Analyze Corporate Restructuring Announcements, Owen P. Hall Jr., Charles J. Mcpeak
Journal of International Information Management
It is a rare day when the Wall Street Journal does not include an announcement that a company is taking a restructuring charge. Nowadays it is often assumed that this charge is being taken for the purpose of managing earnings. The problems associated with earnings management are not limited to Wall Street but can be found throughout the world's financial markets. Ongoing developments in artificial intelligence technology hold considerable promise for helping monitor and detect financial fraud and abuse. The objective of this paper is twofold: first, to illustrate how neural nets, a branch of artificial intelligence, can be used …

Religion And Topoi In The News: An Analysis Of The “Unsecular Media” Hypothesis, Rick Clifton Moore
Religion And Topoi In The News: An Analysis Of The “Unsecular Media” Hypothesis, Rick Clifton Moore
Communication Faculty Publications and Presentations
Mark Silk has proposed in Unsecular Media that journalists operate with a limited series of topoi and that these are borrowed from religion. Silk thus claims when journalists write about religion, they do so in a way that ultimately supports religious values. In this study, I apply topic analysis to recent news coverage of Jesse Jackson’s marital infidelity to determine the extent to which the topos of hypocrisy was employed and whether this employment supported or challenged a religious (as opposed to secular) worldview.

Student Works (2000-2009)
Nowadays, firewall has been widely used to enforce network security policy in organizations. However, maintaining a good and up to date security policy is not an easy task. Furthermore, maintaining a firewall is even harder. A slip of mouse will let the hackers to drive through the firewall easily. Sometime, a badly configured firewall will engender a false sense of security. This can be worse than no firewall at all. As such, Intrusion Detection System (IDS) has been introduced as a second line of defense to protect an organization. IDS can be either host-based, network based or integrated. The functions …
