"These discussions should finally determine the expected financial outcome for the conference. The decision may be taken that the conference will break even or produce a marginal positive income. Once that decision is taken, then the steps must be taken to reach the targeted goal. Based on these decisions, it is also possible to decide the ethicality of certain procedures like seeking of funds from the local community or from the local businesses."

Abstract
This paper briefly discusses the period of history known as the 'scramble for Africa' when European countries tried to colonize as much of Africa as possible in the late 1800s until the start of WWI. It looks at the political, social, and nationalistic reasons for this hype and, in turn, discusses the resulting need for the Berlin Conference in 1884-1885. It explains how this conference was necessary to make international 'rules' about colonization.
From the Paper
"The competition among the European nations to colonize Africa led to the Berlin Conference in 1884-1885. This was necessary because of the intense amount of treaty-making and colony-building by the competing European nations, and it became a three-month bargaining session among the 14 attending nations regarding who would gain control over what parts of Africa, without regard for the cultural boundaries already in place. The nations attending were Germany, Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Denmark, France, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden and Norway, Turkey and the United States. (Wikipedia) The main purposes of the conference became assuring nations access to major trade routes, suppressing the internal slave trade in Africa, banning the importation of firearms into Africa, and discussion of the occupation of territories. ?The result of this conference was a treaty called the Treaty of Berlin. By 1900, almost 90% of Africa was under European control.? (Bergstrom)

Abstract
This paper examines the evolution of the political relationship between the U.S. and the Soviet Union after WWII. The paper explains how both countries viewed the other country's political objective and how these perspectives ultimately shaped all other international relations in the period from the Potsdam Conference until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989.
From the Paper
"Though the United States and the Soviet Union emerged from World War II as putative allies and co-victors in the struggle against Nazi Germany, the reality of the period following World War II is that the United States and the Soviet Union were not allies in any meaningful sense. Whereas the United States positioned itself as supportive of a return to national autonomy in all of Europe, Arnold A. Offner has argued that the Soviets saw a defeated Europe as a logical locus for the extension of Soviet interests and hegemony."

From the Paper
"Genomics research on a large scale can be traced to and has been much bolstered by the Human Genome Program supported by the Department of Energy and other government agencies starting in 1986, with the purpose of mapping the complete DNA sequence of the human genome. Subsequent research addresses specific purposes for different parts of the human genome, ways in which genetic data can be used to fight and prevent disease, traits associated with different genomic sequences, ways of altering genetic information, and much more related to the basic data from the Human Genome Project."

Why Choose Atlanta, Georgia?
Strategic Advantages of Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel: A Critical Review
From the Paper
"WPPA has the best overall physical capacity for the conference. It has the largest available square footage, and was available on the date of the conference. Similarly, there are adequate accommodations for guests that will need to stay overnight, and or other individuals who prefer to stay at the hotel for the duration of the conference. The facilities are exquisite and offer a particular ambiance that is relevant to the overall Coca Cola image. The conference room at WPPA is also connected to the Hotel (in some cases, like the Sheraton, the executive suites were across the street); the hotel is close to the airport and the Coca Cola headquarter offices, so there are no access issues that are overwhelming or bothersome."

Abstract
This paper charters the political career of ?Colonel? Edward Mandell House and in particular his time as the trusted advisor to Woodrow Wilson. It looks at how House played an important role in the peace process at the end of World War I and how he was the American representative for the surrender of Germany, before arriving at the Paris peace conference as Wilson?s personal representative. It discusses how he tried to secure a future for Germany with concessions made to the French outside of the limits of power and guidelines that he had been given to him by Wilson thus compromising Wilson's position.
From the Paper
"Although Wilson and House were close, House remained an accomplished and ambitious political operator. He had been observing Wilson, and had concluded that Wilson?s methods of doing things was not quick enough or ultimately going to solve any problems. He was also very passionate about the league of nations, and felt that Germany should not be treated to harshly, he said that ?if the conditions we impose upon Germany are unjust, it will simply mean the breeding of another war?. As house began to listen to all sides of the argument over the Rhineland. He took onboard all sides of the argument, and was eventually able to come up with a solution that would be acceptable to all sides, and eventually decided to give permission for the French to create a Rhenish republic, at least until they were able to rebuild militarily. House tried his best to address this issue, by suggesting the now infamous ?demilitarisation of the Rhineland?, which was to happen in three stages."

From the Paper
"Introduction.
The Americas have seen much military action in the past hundred years. However, the Chaco War, fought between Paraguay and Bolivia from 1932 to 1935, has the distinction of being the only formal war fought between American national states in the 20th century. Accordingly, the treaty that ended the war is the hemisphere's only experience of a peace negotiation aimed at ending a war between American states. In Politics of the Chaco Peace Conference, 1935-1939, Leslie B. Bout, Jr., gives an account of the peace process that brought the Chaco War to an end.
That process was a long and frustrating one; as the dates show, the peace conference lasted longer than the military phase of the war it was intended to end. On the other hand, the ..."

Abstract
By 1945, as Hitler?s Germany was coming to an end, the future of the European continent seemed uncertain. Soviet troops were just forty-five miles outside of Berlin, and the Allied troops were just about to cross the Rhine. The questioned remained: how would the war affect the balance of power and the political landscape in the years to come? On Feb 4, 1945, Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, and Franklin Roosevelt met to answer this very question at Yalta, a seaside Crimean resort on the coast of the Black Sea. While the conventional wisdom of modern historians is that Churchill and Roosevelt did not wield their collective power, this paper argues that it was Stalin who failed to realize the opportunities available to him and conceded too much. The paper shows that the negotiations can be viewed from a classic ?Power-Interest-Rights? perspective. While Stalin negotiated from a position of power, FDR and Churchill negotiated from positions of rights and interests, respectively. It is the consensus of this paper that Stalin failed to use his dominant position of power, giving Churchill and FDR unnecessary concessions. The paper includes illustrations and tables.
Table of Contents:
Introduction to the Yalta Negotiations
Three Approaches to Resolving Differences
Three Allied Leaders
German Dismemberment
German Reparations
The Role of Post-War France
The Polish Question
The United Nations
Final Thoughts
The Negotiation Time Line
Value Creation Worksheet
Bibliography
From the Paper
"Roosevelt was, above all else, a consummate politician. In fact, he would not meet alone with Churchill to avoid fanning the flames of Stalin?s paranoia. Few men could see more clearly their immediate objective; however, his long-term vision was impaired. In 1945, he was the leader of the strongest nation in the world. The U.S. suffered no bombing, no displacement of its population and no hardship compared to the British and Soviets. In addition, the U.S. had an enormous, well-trained military and had almost perfected the atomic bomb. Roosevelt was optimistic, upbeat and knew how to rally the country."

Abstract
This paper examines ?The Book of Jonah? and ?The Conference of the Birds?, literary works that highlight the beliefs of two prominent religions in the world: Christianity and Islam. The role that travel plays in each of these stories is discussed, as well as the effect these journeys have on the characters.
From the Paper
"?Jonah? is the 14th book of the Prophet?s Book (Bible). This book focuses on ?returning religious? people, and an emphasis on the goodness and mercifulness of God. The story starts when Jonah was asked by God to travel to Nineveh to influence the people to change their sinful ways and actions. By doing so, they will be able to redeem themselves of the punishment that is in store for sinners. Jonah, instead of complying to God?s wishes, fled away to Jafa?s harbor, and boarded on a boat. Jonah?s travel on the sea became dangerous; he thought that the storm was a punishment from God because of his disobedience. Although Jonah was saved from the disaster, another misfortune befell on him: a large fish swallowed him. He stayed inside the fish?s body for 3 nights and 3 days. When he can no longer bear hiss suffering, Jonah finally asked for God?s mercy. Miraculously, after Jonah?s repent, he was thrown out of the fish?s body into the land."

Strategic Marketing Conference Activity, 2005.
A review of Jerome McCarthy's Marketing Management Framework concept of the 60's.

Abstract
This paper discusses Jerome McCarthy's Marketing Management Framework concept, which he published in 1960. In his article, McCarthy describes the term marketing mix and the 4P's: product, price, place, and promotion. The fifth P, packaging, is sometimes used in marketing research and planning. Ineffective marketing research can result in corporate failure. The paper draws an example in the case with the Dell Computer Corporation when it launched its e-commerce site in Japan. The company failed to conduct culture sensitivity research and used a black border on its website, a definite negative connotation in the Japanese culture.
From the Paper
"Kotler (2000) defines marketing as the "process by which individuals and groups obtain what they need and want through creating, offering, and exchanging products and services of value to with others" (p. 8). Anderson discusses how it is a common occurrence for marketers use Jerome McCarthy's Marketing Manager's Framework to develop a marketing mix. Management creates a marketing based on Jerome's 4P's: (1) Product, (2) Price (i.e. skimming, market penetration, and comparable pricing strategies), (3) Promotion (i.e. Push/Pull Strategy), and (4) Place (i.e. distribution). Sometimes packaging is used as the 5^th "P". Managers use these variables to make marketing decisions in order to satisfy consumers in the target market. As described by Coffinet et al, these strategies are also used to achieve market leadership."

From the Paper
" Ann Richards may have lost the recent election for governor of Texas, a race in which she was the incumbent, but she is clearly a political leader with strong persuasive powers. She has been an important figure in Texas politics for some time and rose to prominence on the national scene first when she became the first female governor of Texas in more than 50 years and later when she made a speech before the Democratic National Convention in 1988 making fun of fellow Texan and George Bush. An analysis of her style will center on a speech she delivered at the Democratic Issues conference sponsored by the National Legislative Education Foundation on January 30, 1992 at Piney Point, Maryland.
Ann Richards was born Dorothy Ann Willis on September 1, 1933 in Lakeview, Texas, a small town outside of Waco. Her.."
