...The Second World War was the bloodiest conflict in human history due to the world's superpowers fighting.There were many conflicts, like The Battle of the Bulge and Iwo Jima, but the most important was the Invasion of Normandy.This is the battle that helped the Allies win the war in Europe.This was the biggest amphibious invasion in military history. The great battle started June 6th 1944.The Invasion of Normandy was the most important battle of World War II due to the fact that it dealt a crippling blow to the Nazis in Western Europe while also taking pressure off the Russians and it stretched German supply lines thin from transferring Russia to France. Invading Europe has been on the Allies mind since 1941 when America entered the war in December of the same year. One reason this was the most important battle of world war 2 the sheer size of the invasion. It was the biggest amphibious...

...Keyana Mapp Mrs. Rayford AP Literature 16 November 2011 THE RESEARCH QUESTION College is very important to me and I know I am not the first in my family to go but I am probably the most excited to go. I have look at so many colleges and I have to narrow down my choices. After having three colleges on my list, I have narrowed it down to one, and I decided to narrow it down to The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. I want to attend the University Of Arkansas at Pine Bluff because, a visitor from the college comes to visit Normandy and I was ecstatic by his presentation. After the presentation, I knew that the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff was the college for me. I have always wanted to attend a HBCU (historically black college or university). I plan to visit the campus during my winter break to get the feel of the college and see how the atmosphere was. Before I decide to go see the college, I am going to do my research on it and get a background check to be sure. From the research, I do on the college. I hope it is interesting because I am so anxious to choose the college I am going to and start my life on my own. MY RESEARCH PROCESS I started my research process by going straight to the online website because I believed that would have the most information. I also talked to one of the admission officers (Whimper C., Personal Communication RE: Information on UABP, E-mail to the author, 1 Oct 2011) who visited Normandy High School. After I found out that the online website...

...On June 6, 1944, Allied Forces conducted an amphibious assault of Normandy, France. The invasion, known as D-Day, served as a major turning point for Allied Forces during World War II. The ability for Allied forces to land on Normandy’s beaches in the summer of 1944 catapulted their advanced through France, moving them closer to Germany. With the German Army in disarray from the success of D-Day, Allied Command became complacent, believing it was only a matter of time before the Third Reich collapsed. In mid-December 1944, Germany would attack Allied Forces as they were stretched out over 100 miles of the Ardennes Forest in Belgium and Luxemburg. The Germans called the offensive “Unternehmen Wacht am Rhein” or Watch on the Rhein. Media...

...Abstract This paper investigates the strategic management of Pepsi Cola and Coca-Cola in an effort to make recommendations on how Pepsi Cola can build strategies in gaining a larger share of the market. The assessment of strategic management begins with the vision and mission of both organizations, which leads into literature review that identifies the consumer preferences of both Pepsi Cola and Coca-Cola. Following the literature review is the teams’ own personal assessment of consumer preferences for the Pepsi Cola and Coca-Cola brand (Please refer to Appendix A for the assessment). Finalizing the investigation are recommendations for Pepsi Cola to gain a larger share of the market. The Cola Wars Research Paper According to an industry report from Hoover’s (2014), the U.S. soft drink industry yields $34 billion annually and continues to grow internationally. The largest markets of consumption for soft drinks outside the U.S. are: Mexico, Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay (Hoover’s, 2014). The constant change of consumer preferences is what drives Pepsi Cola and Coca-Cola to compete for a larger share of the market. The intense rivalry between Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola have been going on since the late 1800’s (Economy Watch, 2011); when Pepsi Cola was born from a “combination of: carbonated water, kola nuts, vanilla, and rare oils” (Pepsi Legacy Book, p.7. 2005). This paper focuses on the diversified strategies of both Pepsi Cola and Coca-Cola in their efforts to gain...

...bacteria. Fleming is credited with the discovery of Penicillin because he was the first person to publish news about Penicillin (Robert Fogel, Ivins 2000). Howard Florey, Ernst Chain and Norman Heatley expanded on Fleming's work in 1938, at Oxford University (Robert Fogel, Ivins 2000). Howard Florey, Ernest Chain and Norman Heatly experimented on eight rats. The eight rats were given poison, four of the rats were given Penicillin, and the other four were given nothing. After the experiment was over it was discovered that three of the four rats that were give Penicillin were alive. The other four rats that were given nothing were dead. This experiment proved to the scientist that Penicillin worked and successfully killed bacteria. Through the research of Howard Florey, Ernest Chain and Norman Heatley, Flemings discovery was able to be enhanced and Penicillin became the first anti-biotic. Without the work of these scientist millions of people around the world would have died from bacterial diseases and bacterial infections. This discovery of Penicillin became an important part of World War II. Penicillin helped save millions of soldiers during World War II and without the work of Flemings, Florey, Chain and Heatly Penicillin would not have been apart of World War II. Penicillin played a big role in World War II. World War II caused scientist to make greater advancements in science. These scientific advancements included advancements in the study of Penicillin. The war forced the anti-biotic...

...the Atlantic Ocean. The Battle of the Atlantic served as the “longest, largest, and most complex” naval battle in history, resulting in 3,500 Allied merchant ships and 175 Allied warships being destroyed in addition to over 72,000 Allied casualties (Syrett, 1994). In an attempt to obstruct the movement of merchant shipping, supplies, equipment, and forces into Britain, Admiral Karl Dönitz, German U-Boat Fleet Commander, deployed several U-Boats in “wolfpack” formations to inflict fear and destruction on Allied convoys. As a result, U.S. Allied forces launched a naval campaign to secure the Atlantic sea-lanes, which subsequently served as a precursor to the allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944 (Baer, 1996). In an effort to analyze the strategic and operational factors of this vital campaign, this paper will examine the contributing factors, which led to the Allied victory during the Battle of the Atlantic. Specifically, we will assess the strategic importance of time, coordination, policy, diplomacy, economic management, military intervention, and theory. In addition, we will evaluate the operational factors of adaptive warfare at sea, the critical role of intelligence, and the exploitation of advanced technologies throughout the Battle of the Atlantic. Strategic Factors Grand Alliance When seeking to determine a national goal, objective, or interest, there must be a combination of resources, conditions, and elements of national power to determine the viability of a nation...

...Jason Lepeska Lippincott English III GT/AP-4 17 January 2013 Research Paper The Great Gatsby was a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1925, and has motifs of class separation, the hollowness of the upper class, and the decline of the visions of America. The setting is New York City in the summer of 1922. Nick Carraway moves to New York in hopes of finding a job there. Nick has connections in this town, like his cousin daisy, and her husband, Tom. He moves into a home next to a wealthy Jay Gatsby, an extravagant man who loves throwing ridiculous parties. As the summer progresses, Nick finally gets invited to one of these parties, where he learns Gatsby is in love with Daisy. Nick helps set up Daisy and Gatsby, and they start spending time together. Tom gets angry and ends up driving Gatsby to his unfortunate demise. While a Feminist reading provides insight into the novel, Fitzgerald’s emphasis on the separated classes system and the materialistic beliefs of the upper class demonstrates that a Marxist approach to the novel is of more use. Feminism criticizes the patriarchal language used in novels, and how that reflects the masculinity in the novel (“Feminist Criticism”). Feminism also analyzes how status and positions in the novel relate to the contrasting man and woman. It recognizes more traditional writing, like mailman. Men tend to work towards solutions, while women work towards connecting and feelings (“Feminist Criticism”). It is exemplified in the book...

...A "Reflection" Paper composed for Business Management Reflection Paper I am pleased to reflect on my experience this semester in Business Management 3510. I feel that it was a successful class which taught me a lot regarding how to function in a team and as an individual. Personally, I do not enjoy classes that don’t challenge me. I have always been one to persevere through difficult situations and challenge myself by undertaking complex tasks. If I am presented with a class that doesn’t meet my intellectual standards I have a habit of making things harder than they have to be in order to challenge myself. That’s why I was content in Business Management 3510, I found the team activities, fun, challenging, and stimulating. I will admit that the Business Simulation was far more entertaining to me than the Functional Presentation; however, I found each equally challenging. I believe my role in the functional presentation wasn’t as significant as the Simulation. I feel that there was groupthink (George & Jones, 2009, p. 171) occurring quite frequently. This was probably due to the fact that we presented at the end of the semester fresh off the coat-tails of the Simulation project. I made it a point to take on the role of a quasi-leader in the functional team, although everyone pulled their weight in the end. I made it a point to think outside of the proverbial box by taking the team away from the norm (George & Jones, 2009, p.53) of banking that...

...How to Create a Marketing Plan Part 1 - Introduction Firms that are successful in marketing invariably start with a marketing plan. Large companies have plans with hundreds of pages; small companies can get by with a halfdozen sheets. Put your marketing plan in a three-ring binder. Refer to it at least quarterly, but better yet monthly. Leave a tab for putting in monthly reports on sales/manufacturing; this will allow you to track performance as you follow the plan. The plan should cover one year. For small companies, this is often the best way to think about marketing. Things change, people leave, markets evolve, and customers come and go. Later on we suggest creating a section of your plan that addresses the medium- term future—two to four years down the road. But the bulk of your plan should focus on the coming year. You should allow yourself a couple of months to write the plan, even if it's only a few pages long. Developing the plan is the "heavy lifting" of marketing. While executing the plan has its challenges, deciding what to do and how to do it is marketing's greatest challenge. Most marketing plans kick off with the first of the year or with the opening of your fiscal year if it's different. Who should see your plan? All the players in the company. Firms typically keep their marketing plans very, very private for one of two very different reasons: Either they're too skimpy and management would be embarrassed to have them see the light of day, or they're solid and...
