Abstract
Within this work the demonstration of the ability of the front desk receptionist to engage in and be a member of the management is discussed. The writer points out that this important member of the communications team must be carefully selected, driven to achieve trust and develop ways in which to effectively lead the hub of the client-corporation, and colleague-colleague communication center to better serve the group and the whole organization.
From the Paper
"As a dynamic member of the management team of any office the front desk receptionist is the hub of organization in any office setting. Acknowledgement of the importance of this position has become increasingly important, as technology is proven a poor replacement for the real representation of a front desk receptionist, either by phone or in person. It is often said that without the support staff's presence in the office those they helps organize are unable to work, wasting time fielding questions that could easily be answered by the receptionist or administrative assistant and constantly looking for things which the support staff would easily be able to find."

Following is CCSU Online?s definition of HEAT?s purpose."

Abstract
This paper examines a variety of theories that individually explain background events that have allowed more extreme parties to gain public support in France. It also looks at factors that enabled the French National Front or Front National (FN) to gain a foothold in terms of votes and political recognition as well as the processes and strategies that the FN have used to further expand its support. It assesses the inpact of the FN on French politics in terms of the FN?s influence on rival parties? policies and strategies and its effect on the operations of French democracy.
From the Paper
"One of the key theories put forward to explain the rise of the FN is the ?Underground River? theory, which suggests that seemingly sporadic surges in the popularity of French extreme Right-wing politics are, in fact, connected by a number of common underlying factors. Proponents of this theory contend that such developments as the Vichy regime, the pro-Algerian War movement and the emergence of the FN are linked by a shared ideology, personnel and support, and that despite the current problems for the FN, the extreme Right will once again experience a resurgence in power and popularity in the near-future. The usefulness of this theory can be seen in several areas. For instance, the Underground River theory does point out the lack of legitimacy of the political system in France, which will inevitably lead to outbursts of discontent at various times."

"The intent of this first phase is to accomplish the following tasks. First, the questionnaire will need to be fine-tuned based on how respondents perceive the questions. Completing the survey with a few respondents in person will assist in finding areas where the questionnaire can be improved. Secondly, there are issues and concerns that may not have been covered in the questionnaire, and in this phase, these considerations will be discovered. Finally there is the issue of capturing the nuance and areas of emphasis respondents have on specific projects. Having this face-time with respondents is critical for all these reasons."

Abstract
This paper explains that the plight of gnomes, who are victims of gnome thieves, is a real cause of great concern to the political organization Front de Liberation des Nains de Jardin (FLNJ) or Gnome Liberation Front(GLF). The author points out that the GLF aims at mocking the consumer culture by trying to make people realize that they are not victims of gnome thefts but of a society that convinced them that they were in need of gnomes. The paper states that members in choosing such a method are sure to catch the public's attention to inform people about the true nature of modern culture and open their eyes to what modern life has been reduced.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Gnome Liberation Front
The Probable Commencement of GLF
The Future of Liberated Gnomes
The Probable Agenda of GLF
Conclusion
From the Paper
"In Britain, it is said that the GLF might be involved in the re-sale of the gnomes stolen by them and money is the only objective of this organization. However, that is not how the objectives of GLF are perceived in the rest of Europe. There appears to be a hidden message or higher purpose behind all these gnome robberies. The Gnome Liberation Front appears to practice a form of culture jamming. Culture jamming is a form of political communication, which has emerged as rebellion against the commercial isolation of public life where people are more interested in identifying with brand names than focusing on the problems surrounding their commercial environment."

"All Quiet on the Western Front", 2002.
An analysis and examination of "All Quiet on the Western Front".

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper is an analysis of ?All Quiet on the Western Front?. It focuses on the effects of World War I on both the soldiers and society. The author discusses how the soldiers are separated and alienated from society due to the fact that no one can truly comprehend the horrors of the war and the returning soldiers are unable to communicate with those who have not experienced it.
From the paper:
"Erich Maria Remarque?s literary breakthrough, All Quiet on the Western Front, still stands at the forefront of a host of novels on that most tragic recurrence in the history of human experience: war. It meticulously chronicles the thoughts of a soldier in World War I while simultaneously detailing the horrors of all wars. The war is seen through the eyes of Paul Baumer, the mouthpiece for Remarque's bitter critique of the ideals of patriotism and nationalism that drove nations into this catastrophe."

The WWII Eastern Front, 2005.
This paper discusses that the eastern front of World War II was the bloodiest, costliest and most morally deprived fighting seen in the twentieth century.

Abstract
This paper explains that the eastern front of the Second World War is often overlooked by Western historians; however, the fierce battles and enormous amount of blood spilled between Russia and Germany during this time is almost unfathomable by modern standards of warfare. The author points out that some of the most brutal fighting of World War II took place in the modern-day Ukraine, which was targeted by Hitler because of its strong industrial and agricultural base. Additionally, he sought to misdirect Soviet forces from the Baltic States to the Ukraine further in the south. The paper relates that the physical geography of the eastern front made holding strategic locations difficult; the sprawling, open nature of the land generated a situation in which deception and surprise were minimal and thus, casualties were considerable.
From the Paper
"While the southern and central portions of the nation are densely populated and have varied geographies, northern Poland is more sparsely populated and almost uniform in its physical characteristics. The climate is generally cool and similar to that in central North America. The average temperature in the summer is between 60 F and 70 F, while the winter average is about 30 F. It has the capacity to reach very cold temperatures, and can be quite unaccommodating to massive military forces. Unfortunately, this climate was not enough to stop Russian and German armies from ravaging Poland's countryside. "Geographically, Poland stood as a tasty morsel between the jaws of Germany and Russia. An agricultural nation with no natural barriers or frontiers, Poland could not, like Switzerland, look to the mountains, money, or a strong industry for protection.""

Abstract
A literary analysis of "All Quiet on the Western Front". The author discusses the writer's examination of the horrors of World War I through the eyes of the soldiers involved in the war, as well as the effects of war on society at large.
From the paper:
"All Quiet on the Western Front, by Erich Maria Remarque, is a book that explores the true horrors of World War I through the eyes of a German solider. The author uses the character of Paul to tell a realistic story of what the average WWI solider had to endure. This book raises the issue of how destructive war can be not only to a country, but also to a generation of a nation. One of the major themes in the story is that of the lost generation. An entire generation of men fighting for their country was lost in World War I."

The Gnome Liberation Front, 2006.
A discussion on whether the Gnome Liberation Front is a radical left-wing situationist or a right-wing liberationist parody.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper examines the legitimacy of the Gnome Liberation Front (GLF) as a political party. The writer discusses how the tone of the website is a combined parody of political correctness rhetoric, speaking of oppressed minorities such as the short gnomes, and fringe liberation front rhetoric about liberating these tiny ceramic people. The writer further compares the GLF to the movie "Fight Club" with an attitude of creating an "in-joke" amongst a group of members, for private self-glorification. The writer concludes that the GLF uses situationist-style techniques and methods to accomplish what are, to the eyes of the world, uncertain goals.
From the Paper
"Even the GLF website domain of 'internet-trash' suggests a parody. Although there is photographic evidence of 'real' rescue activities of garden gnomes, this could just as easily take the form of a montage of staged shots. The blatantly false "Gnomes on the Roam" section, which superimposes gnome shots upon real-world images, seems to confirm this idea and increases the reader's suspicions that this is not a real organization of any serious intent. However, the 2000 news story "Garden Gnome Liberation Front strikes Paris show" by the respectable news organization CNN ultimately belies the web-surfer's initial suspicions."

Abstract
The paper discusses Erich Maria Remarque's novel, "All Quiet On The Western Front." The paper highlights the theme of the lives of soldiers who survived WWI and the impact on their post-war lives and also examines their characters.
From the Paper
"World War I was called "The war to end all wars." Of course today we know differently. What makes this German anti war novel so powerful, is that it may well be one of the only books to look at the ordinary German soldier fighting in the trenches. Fighting and dying for a cause few understood."

Abstract
This paper examines the influence, power, agenda and motivations of the Palestine Liberation Front. The paper then analyzes the political, economic, social and cultural conditions in Palestine to gain an understanding of how the PLF and other terror groups are thriving in the Muslim Middle East.
From the Paper
" Because these conditions are so inflammatory, the religious, financial, and criminal motives of the PLF have been radicalized to such an extent that peaceful coexistence with Israel appears to be extremely unlikely. The Palestine Liberation Front emerged in the late nineteen-seventies but quickly split into pro-PLO, pro-Syrian, and pro-Libyan factions. According to NPS (2005) "the pro-PLO faction was led by Muhammad Abbas and was based in Baghdad prior to Operation Iraqi Freedom. "

Abstract
This paper briefly takes a look at the arguments presented in Winkler's book "Home Front USA." The author claims that American society changed dramatically as a result of World War Two and the writer looks at these claims on a social, racial and cultural level. The country as a whole changed on a industrial level.
From the Paper
"World War II transformed the map of Europe. It changed the balance of power across the world. It also changed the face and the structure of American society. According to Allan M. Winkler's Home Front U.S.A.: America, during World War II, American society was completely reconfigured. These changes continue to impact our lives today.
Winkler does not deny the fact that certain changes were already underway before the even of war. Yet he states that the impact of the war was such that without it, today we would be living in a completely different world from both a social and an industrial perspective."
