From the Paper
"Declines normally take place due to superior products having come into the market, or it may be just due to bad communication. If these aspects are studied they may provide new insights as to the methods of improving the situation of the product. The third important thing is to know the competitors well enough, along with their own, individual strengths and weaknesses. This will sometimes help in the discovery of certain opportunities in the market that could be fulfilled by the product that the product under review could fulfill. The next natural step is the knowledge of the situation in the market, and this is in terms of the activities of the competitors. This knowledge helps in the differentiation of the product from the others in the market. Even if there is a direct competition with a product, this may help."

"The effective formal essay should incorporate the same adage that applies to effective speech-giving: Tell your audience what you are going to say, introduction, body and then restate what you have just said and the conclusion. Such a formula leads to organization clarity and reinforces the concept of knowing your audience, which are also elements of effective business writing. In today's highly information and communication based organization, Messmer contends that writing skills are no longer simply an advantage they're a necessity. Poor writing skills lead ..."

"The Big Three"--Summit Conferences of 1943-61
This research discusses the significant conferences among the Big Three, from the one in Teheran, Iran in November 1943 to the June 1961 Summit Meeting in Vienna. During World War II, both the Americans and British allied successfully with the Soviets to conquer and permanently break up the Fascist-Nazi regime of Hitler's Germany. These three nations contributed lives, weapons, money and time, to the preservation of a stable, prosperous, peaceful Europe. The Soviet term "peaceful coexistence" explains the feelings of the Big Three: They all sought peace and prosperity. The big three played a major role not only in defeating Hitler's armies but also in the unconditional surrender and the difficult reconstruction process of Germany."

"Banning (2005), in a qualitative study, found that the different levels of evidence were utilized according to their appreciation of them, suggesting that prior training in the use of these resources for continuing education can influence nurses' perceptions of and appreciation for evidence-based practice. Multiple sources of support in health care organizations from management by promoting a culture of receptivity to change and encouragement of this practice can empower nurses to shift towards more confident implementation of evidence-based practice."

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 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."

Abstract
This paper reports on the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) Genomics Track and recent research on databases and accessing databases on genome information, which intends to improve information retrieval in the area of genomics by creating test collections that will allow researchers to improve and better understand failures of their systems, and which shows several types of research in the most recent papers on the subject.
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."

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."

A research paper on the educational reading strategy known as "reading workshop."

Abstract
Teachers must thoughtfully reconsider how reading instruction is reorganized to rekindle a sense of joy and ownership. Recent evidence seems to point to at least two major concerns, which should be taken into account when reorganizing for effective reading instruction. The first concern is the lack of time spent reading. The second concern is the use of worksheets to manage the classroom. This paper provides a step-by-step analysis of a new reading strategy, which was implemented to counter these two problems and is called 'The Reading Workshop'. The paper covers the theories of educationalists N. Atwell and K. Swift, as well as other experts in the field.
From the Paper
"Atwell (1998) introduced the concept of Reading Workshop as variation of what used to be the Individual Reading Program. She did not use basal readers or a literature series. Reading Workshop allowed her students to choose the books they wanted to read, gave them time to read in class, and required them to share their thoughts about books in dialogue journals. Atwell found that her students read more and enjoyed more of what they were reading."
