Have campaign finance reform laws actually worked? Is money less influential in electing candidates today than it was thirty years ago when legislation was first enacted? Absolutely not, argues Rodney A Smith in this passionately written, fact-filled, and provocative book According to Smith, the laws have had exactly the opposite of their intended озуцо effect They have increased the likelihood that incumbents in the House and Senate will be reelected, and they have greatly diminished the chances that candidates who are not wealthy will be elected Smith’s claims are supported by convincing data; he collected and analyzed information about all federal elections since 1920 These data show clearly that money matters now more than ever Smith thinks that reform legislation has created a new inequality for candidates that, if left unchecked, threatens to destroy the American electoral process by obliterating the foundational principle of free speech He argues that "money buys speech" and when candidates lack money to buy media time and space they are effectively silenced Their inability to "speak freely" violates the most significant intentions of our nation’s founders: that a sovereign citizenry elect its own leaders based on a free exchange of ideas For Smith, campaign finance reform has unwittingly unbalanced the checks and balances created by the Framers of the Constitution After presenting a detailed historical overview of how we have reached the present crisis, Smith proposes a simple solution: institute a process that completely discloses relevant information about campaign donors and recipients of donations All disclosures would be available to the media, which would be able to investigate and report them fully Only then, Smith believes, will the United States have the opportunity to be the democratic republic that its founders intended AUTHOR BIO: A certified public accountant, Rodney A Smith is a political consultant and fund-raiser In the past thirty years, he has raised over a billion dollars for candidates and political committees He has been the national finance director for the Republican National Committee and the National Republican Congressional Committee and served as treasurer and finance director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee He is the only finance professional ever honored as the "Most Valuable Player in a Campaign" by the American Association of Political Consultants He lives in Washington, D C Автор Rodney A Smith.

Preface Network administrators live busy lives We face distractions and pressures that drive us to seek proven, working case scenarios that can be easily implemented Often this approach lands us in trouble There is a saying that, geometrically speaking, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, but practically we find that озуцр the quickest route to a stable network solution is the long way around This book is your means to the straight path It provides step-by-step, proven, working examples of Samba deployments If you want to deploy Samba-3 with the least effort, or if you want to become an expert at deploying Samba-3 without having to search through lots of documentation, this book is the ticket to your destination Samba is software that can be run on a platform other than Microsoft Windows, for example, UNIX, Linux, IBM System 390, OpenVMS, and other operating systems Samba uses the TCP/IP protocol that is installed on the host server When correctly configured, it allows that host to interact with a Microsoft Windows client or server as if it is a Windows file and print server This book will help you to implement Windows-compatible file and print services The examples presented in this book are typical of various businesses and re ect the problems and challenges they face Care has been taken to preserve attitudes, perceptions, practices, and demands from real network case studies The maximum benefit may be obtained from this book by working carefully through each exercise You may be in a hurry to satisfy a specific need, so feel free to locate the example that most closely matches your need, copy it, and innovate as much as you like Above all, enjoy the process of learning the secrets of MS Windows networking that is truly liberated by Samba The focus of attention in this book is Samba-3 Specific notes are made in respect of how Samba may be made secure This book does not attempt to provide detailed information regarding secure operation and configuration of peripheral services and applications such as OpenLDAP, DNS and DHCP, the need for which can be met from other resources that are dedicated to the subject Why Is This Book Necessary? This book is the result of observations and feedback The feedback from the Samba-HOWTO-Collection has been positive and complimentary There have been requests for far more worked examples, a "Samba Cookbook," and for training materials to help kick-start the process of mastering Samba The Samba mailing list's users have asked for sample configuration files that work It is natural to question one's own ability to correctly configure a complex tool such as Samba until a minimum necessary knowledge level has been attained The Samba-HOWTO-Collection, as do The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide, document Samba features and functionality in a topical context This book takes a completely different approach It walks through Samba network configurations that are working within particular environmental contexts, providing documented step-by-step implementations All example case configuration files, scripts, and other tools are provided on the CD-ROM This book is descriptive, provides detailed diagrams, and makes deployment of Samba-3 a breeze Prerequisites This book is not a tutorial on UNIX or Linux administration UNIX and Linux training is best obtained from books dedicated to the subject This book assumes that you have at least the basic skill necessary to use these operating systems, and that you can use a basic system editor to edit and configure files It has been written with the assumption that you have experience with Samba, have read The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide and the Samba-HOWTO-Collection, or that you have familiarity with Microsoft Windows If you do not have this experience, you can follow the examples in this book but may find yourself at times intimidated by assumptions made In this situation, you may need to refer to administrative guides or manuals for your operating system platform to find what is the best method to achieve what the text of this book describes Approach The first chapter deals with some rather thorny network analysis issues Do not be put off by this The information you glean, even without a detailed understanding of network protocol analysis, can help you understand how Windows networking functions Each following chapter of this book opens with the description of a networking solution sought by a hypothetical site Bob Jordan is a hypothetical decision maker for an imaginary company, Abmas Biz NL We will use the non-existent domain name abmas biz All facts presented regarding this company are fictitious and have been drawn from a variety of real business scenarios over many years Not one of these reveal the identify of the real-world company from which the scenario originated In any case, Mr Jordan likes t. 2004 г Мягкая обложка, 384 стр ISBN 0131472216.

Preface The fall of Arthur Andersen-;one of the five largest accounting firms in the world-;was as much a shock to its 85,000 worldwide employees as it was to the business community and the general public Except for the Enron engagement team, those inside the global firm knew little about its association with Enron Most first learned from the media озуцы of the Andersen felony indictment for obstructing a federal investigation Even then, it was inconceivable to most Andersen employees that the entire firm, with offices all over the world, could be affected so profoundly Within days, desks were being packed, families relocated, whole offices parcelled off Everyone was left looking back at what had been The story is poignant, not just because it affected the lives of those inside but because it has a message for businesses today in all sectors The changes inside and outside the firm that led to actions so out of character for the company's founder, Arthur E Andersen, are changes that can and will affect other companies, perhaps yours The mission of this book is to tell what happened, as seen from inside-;before, during, and after-;to those who are not insiders of Arthur Andersen or the accounting industry, and provide insights for those who were insiders The authors, Susan E Squires, Cynthia J Smith, Lorna McDougall, and William R Yeack were all employed by Andersen and bring over 26 years of collective experience with the firm to the Andersen story The book's tale is of a firm that changed as competition among the big accounting firms became aggressive To survive and prosper, Andersen changed and adapted in ways many firms today are changing and adapting From the days of Arthur E Andersen's original public accounting firm that provided honest audit service, the firm became a dynamic, sprawling, more aggressive multiservice organization with clients willing to skate ever closer to the edge of risk This book chronicles key decisions that led to changes in Andersen's culture and the external and internal factors that led to events that would have been unlikely-;even impossible-;only a few years before The story begins as Arthur Andersen goes to trial, then recounts the sequence of events that brought the firm to court-;the day things turned ugly-;the media coverage of the shredding, and the fall of the first of several dominos that would eventually topple Arthur Andersen You will get the inside view from several perspectives of the firm What was it like to work at Arthur Andersen? How did the company grow from a small accounting firm dominated by one individual to a global firm that was the largest of its kind in the world when it became Enron's auditor? You will understand the long chain of events that eventually caused Andersen to fall These events shed light on the role of accounting in the American economic system and on current concerns In the end, you can consider what this means for you and perhaps for your company About the Authors Arthur Andersen is a unique case to which analysis of the organizational culture can be applied All authors are Andersen "insiders" who were participants and observers within the Andersen organization and are able to share a factual business picture, as well as a very human face of the firm's story Three of the authors of this book are cultural experts who held positions at the firm Based on their understanding and first-hand experience, the authors are able to shed light on events and core values of the legendary Andersen culture and how they were transformed over time, especially from 1981 to 1997, the time span of their experience Dr Susan E Squires was at Andersen Worldwide's Center of Professional Development from 1993 to 1997, working with both Arthur Andersen and Andersen Consulting as an evaluator and cultural consultant on internal and external teams Dr Lorna McDougall was a cultural consultant at Andersen Worldwide, conducting research and working on long-term human resources and organizational learning for the Audit, Tax, and Consulting divisions in the U S and the UK Dr Cynthia J Smith, an anthropologist, began working with the firm in 1982, creating the first position for an anthropologist in the Management Development Group at Andersen's Center for Professional Education and Development in St Charles, Illinois William R Yeack's responsibilities for large multinational, high-risk projects within the firm and as a private sector executive add a front-line professional perspective to the book William Yeack and Cynthia Smith worked closely together on cultural research projects in the firm, developing high-risk and international project cultural risk management improvements Acknowledgments Many people helped us with this project We owe thanks to the many members of the Andersen family who lent us their support, to senior members of the firm in the U S and UK for generously sharing their perspectives, and to all the Arthur Andersen alumni for their thoughtful interviews We want to thank James Brennan for his generosity in terms of time and effort to help us with the interview phase of the project All of those we talked with added immeasurably to our understanding, and without them this story might be very different We would like to express our deep gratitude to our editor, Jim Boyd, for the unusual opportunity to write as a team and for his invaluable insights and guidance throughout this project We thank Russell Hall for his editorial support and for his cheerful encouragement as we worked through the many possible approaches to writing We must thank Mitchell Lear for suggesting that we write this book and Dr Leonard Sayles and Kathy Ripin for their help in thinking through the project They gave generously of their time and advice We especially thank retired partner, Thad Perry, for taking an interest in the research and development projects proposed by William Yeack and Cynthia Smith when they all worked together in the early 1980s Mr Perry had the management courage to give permission and support for our work Thanks also go to Dr Daniel Jensen, Director of the Accounting Hall of Fame at Ohio State University, who took time to engage in a most interesting and helpful discussion of recent events in accounting from his perspective as a historian of the accounting profession We would also like to thank those who helped us with research for the project Elaine Lowell and Gabrielle Cooney provided help with some of the background Brian Hickam and Tim Burns, reference librarians at Ohio State University-Mansfield Library, were extremely helpful and creative about tracking down sources It is important that we thank Marilyn Taillon for her Andersen insights and Kate Cox for her guidance in reorganizing the original manuscript Bryan Bryn deserves our thanks for helping to tighten the book's conclusions Our families have been unfailingly supportive while we thought about and undertook the writing task We want to express our appreciation for all the concessions our families and friends have made and for their support during our work on the book Lucy, Susan's dog, deserves special thanks for sitting so patiently by her desk while she wrote and rewrote instead of going for walks Because the firm no longer exists, for all intents and purposes, it has been difficult at times to verify information Although we have made every effort to check points of accuracy, the authors take responsibility for any errors When we found discrepancies in details recounted in the media, we attempted to check the facts with former Andersen partners or to decide which sources we believed to be more reliable The story of Andersen and Enron is still unfolding, and a great deal of litigation is still outstanding against the firm, which makes it difficult for Andersen people to discuss certain topics Авторы (показать всех авторов) Susan E Squires Cynthia Smith Лорна Макдугалл Lorna McDougall.
