Abstract
In this essay, the writer notes that there is consensus from academic as well as popular sources that the Oslo peace process ended in failure. However, as this study discusses, the perceived intentions and aims of the Oslo Accords were not always seen by the different parties as a formula for the complete cessations of all conflict and disagreements. This paper provides an overview of the Accords and explores the central reason for the failure of these Accords. Another aspect that is touched on is the relative paucity of analysis of the lessons that have been learnt from the failure of Oslo. The writer concludes that there is little doubt that a central aspect that contributed to this failure was loss of faith and trust in the process and fundamentally a suspicion of intention from various quarters.

From the Paper
"However, as this study discusses, the perceived intentions and aims of the Oslo Accords were not always seen by the different parties as a formula for the complete cessations of all conflict and disagreements. Nevertheless the hope and confidence that was publicly displayed and engendered by the Oslo Accords not only failed in terms of the goals and time constraints but also failed to a large extent to create a more promising environment for the solution of the Israeli-Palestinian problem."
"There are a plethora of debate, studies and dissertations which deal with the aspects that resulted in the demise of the Oslo Accords."

Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, 2007.
An assessment of the impact of hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Abstract
This paper discusses how the 2005 hurricane season proved to be particularly intense and damaging. Hurricane Katrina caused a breech of levees and massive flooding and losses in New Orleans. Hurricane Rita was also almost as intense as Katrina but luckily did not cause as much damage. In particular, the paper looks at how it is important to recognize that hurricane preparedness is essential to minimizing the damage caused by hurricanes and how, given the margin of error in hurricane forecasting, the damage may not always materialize but failure to act on a hurricane warning could prove to be much more costly in life and property losses. This paper assesses the impact of Katrina and Rita in order to study Hurricane emergency response and what needs to be done to produce a response that would minimize loss of life and property.

"The orbiting and geostationary satellites take visual and infrared photographs. The infrared photographs measure the temperature of the surface below it; the sea, the earth, the clouds etc. The temperatures are color coded for identification. The visible photographs provide information about cloud cover. As indicated by the solar radiation reflected by the clouds. These pictures determine the temperature of the ocean water, circulation patterns and the height of the cloud. The ground radars and buoys transmit weather data every hour to the weather data collecting stations. These factors help in forecasting the cyclones (hurricanes). "

Abstract
This paper provides a history of Phoenix, Arizona, with a breakdown of its population, economy and resources. It particularly focuses on how well the city has adapted to its arid geography. It discusses how the residents of Phoenix have come to grips with their scarce water resources and then analyzes how compatible the city's economic activities are with these arid land constraints. The paper concludes by discussing the various types of socio-cultural organizations that have emerged in response to these ecological conditions and the future outlook for Phoenix.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The same features that have historically attracted new residents to Phoenix can be reasonably expected to remain important to the city's growth in the future. In fact, given the rapidly retiring Baby Boom generation, it may well be that Phoenix becomes one of the five largest cities in the United States over the next 10-20 years. This growth rate is assuming, of course, that the water problems looming large on the horizon for the city can be solved today, because tomorrow will be too late. According to Mack and Varady (1995), "When examining water management, particularly in an urban setting, key issues include quantity (water supply), sewerage (water and waste removal), and quality. All three subjects bear directly on human health, and all are closely interrelated" (8)."

Abstract
This paper explains that, until the nation's defeat in WWII, residents of Japan lived under the absolute rule of an emperor as the head of the government with members of the royal monarchy in-charge of the various governmental and societal functions. The author points out that, after the nation's defeat in WWII, U.S. General Douglas MacArthur helped reorganize the governmental structure into a constitutional democracy with the emperor as a figurehead. The paper indicates that some Japanese traditions, such as keiretsu and guaranteed lifetime employment, are being eroded as Japan becomes more westernized. The paper includes many long quotations.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"One of the differences between Japan and the United States is the percentage of national budget that is dedicated to military defense operations. While the United States has a relatively high contribution of its national budget that goes to the military defense fund, Japan dedicates approximately one percent of its GPD to the same cause. Instead, it has focused its funding on advancing its technology knowledge which put it at the head of the pack for several decades in designing and selling products that are technology based. "

"The analysts, advocates of open borders, politicians as well as political groups who are against any forms of immigration control as well as enforcement initiatives argue that the illegal immigrants who settle in Los Angeles do have a net positive effect. But the opposite is considered to be true. (Illegal Immigration's Financial Impact) Quite a few studies have revealed the controversial outcomes of illegal immigration. According to a study conducted by the Federation for American Immigration Reform [FAIR], which is a group, supporting a reduction of legal migration based in Washington, D.C., states that the cost of immigration to our society is significantly very high."

Is New Orleans Safe?, 2007.
This paper discusses the history of hurricanes in New Orleans and the city's limited protection even today.
1,549 words (approx. 6.2 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 50.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper explores the history of hurricane protection for New Orleans and examines advances in technology that have resulted in billions of dollars worth of construction designed to protect New Orleans from hurricanes and floods. The paper shows, however, how short-term solutions to control flooding in New Orleans have led to longer-term problems. New Orleans has become increasingly vulnerable to damage from hurricanes. The paper demonstrates how the government is still struggling today to determine how it will continue to aid New Orleans. The paper concludes that it is hard to imagine how the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies will cope if the United States should suffer another hit from a major hurricane.

From the Paper
"New Orleans was first settled by Jean Baptiste le Moyne, about 300 years ago. He picked the land between the marshes on the edge of Lake Ponchartrain and the Mississippi because the spot was so favorable for trade. However, the location was prone to both floods and hurricanes. Both hurricanes and floods have been a recurring problem ever since. One particularly severe flood occurred in 1927 with a death toll of somewhere between 250 and 1,000. In addition, nearly 700,000 lost their homes, triggering the first major federal effort to control Mississippi River floods (McQuaid & Schleifstein, 2002). Over the short term, flood control seemed to work well. Weather forecasting improved, local authorities developed effective evacuation plans, and building techniques helped protect the citizens (McQuaid & Schleifstein, 2002)."

The paper provides a general history of the settlement of California and of the San Joaquin Plain, in particular. It then goes on to describe the current make-up of the area and some of the politics that surrounds it.
From the Paper
"Migrants during the Depression era in the early 1900s from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas and Kansas abandoned the nearly unviable southern Great Plain and moved Chicago, Kansas City, Detroit and then fast-growing Los Angeles (Wikipedia 2006). Those who remained had to bear the drought of the late 1920s and the Dust Bowl. Those who fled took Route 66 to Barstow or Los Angeles and there began new lives as fruit and vegetable pickers in truck farms in San Joaquin Valley. There they exchanged relative independence for peasantry. Many of them lived in dirty agricultural camps, in economic distress, domestic disputes, crime, riots and even suicides. The majority of the Okies and Arkies left San Joaquin during World War II, mostly for Los Angeles and San Diego to work in war businesses. Those who remained eventually ended up in Bakersfield, noted as an oil production center when major Southern California wells, like Signal Hill, began drying up (Wikipedia)."

"The part that New Orleans Port plays in the U.S. supply chain is a critical one, so critical that the disaster that took place due to Hurricane Katrina is stated to be "likely to drag down U.S. economic growth in the months ahead." (Helman, 2005) Economists believe that the effects "may be more lasting than those that usually follow big storms due to the "severity of the damage" (Helman, 2005) as well as the "unique geography of the New Orleans region."

From the Paper
"Armenia is regarded, in the same manned, as part of the string of former communist satellites and in the coordinates of the Trans Caucasian region. For Azerbaijan, it represents a source of ethnic conflict, as Armenia supports ethnic Armenian secessionists in Nagorno-Karabakh and since the early 1990s, has militarily occupied 16% of Azerbaijan . Although an OSCE brokering action is underway, the regional forces are split over the assistance given to both parties, one actor's position worthy of considering being that of Turkey, who, in light of cultural affinities with the Azeri Republic, supports its cause in the on going conflict."

"Countries rich in resources must be tempted to promote their export growing policies, which will increase economy openness and exposure to external shocks even to a higher degree. The country will improve its' international competitive position if it promotes exports and trade by investing heavily into this economy sphere. The second round positive result from promoting exports and trade is the future possible exploitation of economies of scale in production when the output sales markets for the producers expand. The third round positive affect is that the producers will naturally eliminate inefficient production facilities and invest into high technology and train and grow skilled labor resources to remain competitive in the global arena. These are the main reasons for opening up the economy and playing on the global market arena, and are very effective economy stimulating methods for economies with low local purchasing power and thus limited local output markets, which are the classifications of African counties, as proven by Fosu . "Open economies do grow more rapidly than closed economies... Whether the measure of openness has to do with exchange rate overvaluation, relative price distortions, tariffs and quotas, share of trade in GDP, the black market premium, or a composite measure combining some of these with state monopolization of commodity exports and general socialism" (Easterly, 2000, p. 48) .

"In order to manage this change appropriately one must understand why change is often resisted. For instance, in the Middle East there are various opinions about the changes that have occurred in Iraq and what the outcomes will be (White and Schmidmayr, 2003). There are also many myths associated with people resistant to change. In any respect, people resist change because they are uncomfortable or unfamiliar with the type of change that is taking place (White and Schmidmayr, 2003). In a sense it is simply the fear of the unknown or a feeling that they will no longer be in control of their destinies (White and Schmidmayr, 2003)."

»

Abstract
This paper begins with a general overview of Indiana, discussing its physical geography and population. It continues to offer extensive research on the education system in Indiana. It highlights the issue with state funding for public education and expands on the income disparity. The paper also explores the issue of standardized testing and the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB).
From the Paper
"Indiana's uses a Foundation Program to provide funding to its public school corporations. Under this model, "the state guarantees school corporations a specific amount of per-pupil funding for education, which is known as the foundation level, provided that the school corporation raises a designated share of dollars through local property taxes." (Toutkoushian and Michael, p.1). In 1993, this system was changed to help target disparity between wealthy and unwealthy school districts. While the bottom up equalization still sets a minimum expenditure per-pupil target for each corporation, it also specifies that local property tax rates should be the same for school corporations with similar expenditure levels. (Toutkoushian and Michael, p.3). Furthermore, the Foundation Program sets ceiling for property tax rates. (Toutkoushian and Michael, p.3). Finally, these changes "allowed the foundation level per pupil to be adjusted upward for school corporations with lower socioeconomic status." (Toutkoushian and Michael, p.3)."

Abstract
This paper uses the functionalist and conflict perspectives in sociology to explain the factors that make California a beacon for many immigrants from around the world.
From the Paper
"Functionalists tend to analyze social phenomenon in terms of how these events contribute to or detract from social order. For functionalists, one of the biggest factors that would draw immigrants is the need for inexpensive labor. There are large segments of the California economy that are dependent on this important resource. This need can be seen in the number of unauthorized immigrants who are employed in low-wage occupations. For example, in California, undocumented workers comprise 19 percent of farming workers and 17 percent of workers employed in cleaning occupations (Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy 2005)."

This paper describes a number of British landmarks - it mentions the location, a little of the history and the uses of the place and describes how its use has changed in the present day. The paper discusses St. Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, Globe Theater, the change of the Guard in Buckingham Palace, The Tower of London, Oxford, Stratford-on-Avon, Runnymede and Stonehenge.
From the Paper
" Stratford-on-Avon (Wikipedia 2006, AllRefer Encyclopedia 2005) is a constituency, which is represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It is a town and a district in Warwickshire in central England on the Avon River, which owes its fame to the greatest English playwright, William Shakespeare. A gabled building on Henley street is believed to have been his birthplace, purchased in 1597. Most of the structures and places in Stratford connected with his life were bought in the 19th century, such as the Edward VI's Grammar School, where Shakespeare was believed to have attended; the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham and the Shakespeare Center built on the same street in 1964 (AllRefer, Wikipedia)."

Abstract
The paper explains that many parts of the world have experienced elevated levels of nitrates in their drinking water by virtue of past industrial and agricultural practices. The paper provides a review of the relevant literature to determine the effects of nitrates in drinking water sources and examines what types of testing are typically done to assess the presence of nitrates, in particular in New Jersey. The paper discusses current and future trends in this area. The paper concludes that elevated levels of nitrates in drinking water supplies can result in profound adverse health consequences. People around the world are using their groundwater resources faster than they are being naturally replenished and this has caused further concentrations of any pollutants that might be present.
Outline:
Introduction
Review and Discussion
Conclusion
From the Paper
"In a day and age characterized by debates over oil and potential future energy sources, an important fact is being overlooked. By all accounts, fresh water is far more important than oil and people had better pay closer attention to what is happening to their drinking water sources today. According to Roberts (2001), "Water use in the United States averages about 100 gallons of drinking water per person per day, more than just about any other country. A very small proportion of this water per person, approximately two gallons, is actually used for drinking and cooking. We use the majority of the water that comes into our homes for bathing, flushing toilets, doing laundry, watering lawns, filling swimming pools, and washing cars" (p. 64). Throughout the world, people obtain their drinking water from a wide range of sources, and these same techniques are used in the United States."

Abstract
This paper looks into the culture and societies of the country of Nepal. It analyzes the country's cultural and social environment, attempting to lead to an understanding of its basic characteristics, such as geography, demographics and the socio-economic and political structures that it is comprised of. The paper focuses briefly on communication in Nepal and the Nepali language.
From the Paper
"However, within the Nepalese culture, some groups are also trying to dismantle the discrimination that is the caste system. In a recent study by Liechty (2005), the majority middle class individuals in Nepalese society are gradually trying to re-identify themselves based on their role and productivity in the society, rather than being identified as a member of a particular class or caste. This protest supports the notion of low power distance, in which the only superiority-inferiority dichotomy exists between individuals who provide/produce or do not provide/produce significantly for the society. Thus, one's worth is assessed based on his/her use to the society, not on the tradition of the caste system (i.e., those who were born Brahmin should remain Brahmin despite his/her insignificant contribution to the improvement of Nepalese society)."

"Another exciting and well known outdoor activity is trout fishing, in high mountain lakes and streams. Seldom know that the state also offers a wide variety of other exciting fishing opportunities such as trophy lake trout. The trout alone weighs at over 40 pounds. In addition, ferocious tiger muskie, striped bass so abundant that they have removed the limit, exclusive and hard-fighting wipers, as well as quality waters for walleye, perch, smallmouth, channel catfish, largemouth, crappie, white bass, and several other species are all to be fond in fishing. Fishing is open throughout the year on most waters. However, all visitors have to follow certain rules of fishing, which are available at all Wildlife Resources offices and also at most local stores and visitor information outlets. "
