The Muslims’ View of the Crusaders
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page paper discussing the Muslim view at the beginning of the First Crusade. The Crusaders’ mission was to regain Jerusalem, the holiest ground of the Christian faith, from the grasp of the Muslims.

The Issue of Women's Rights in Egyptian Foreign Policy
[ send me this paper ]
Egyptian foreign policy is at a fulcrum in terms of the world situation. Economic policy decrees that ties with the Western World be maintained, while defense policy makes it imperative that ties with neighboring middle East and African countries take precedence. The United States, in particular, sees itself as a leader in the establishment of human rights on a global level. Foreign policy reflects these concepts. Third world countries such as Egypt are dependent on the foreign aid and good relationship with the United States and other Western powers for continued economic development. This 10 page paper explores the stand of Egyptian policy on issues of Women's rights and the role of women. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Investor Options in Times of Market Downturn
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the time that the 'correction' finally arrives. The bull market is a heady thing. Take a few (or many) dollars, effectively transfer the funds for a company to use for a while and make money hand over fist.
The Dow made the 'impossible' figure of 3,000 just after the Gulf War. Analysts said it could never happen, that the market simply was not meant to rise to that level. Surely a correction was in order. Only nine years later, the Dow has closed at over 11,000 and few use the word
'impossible' anymore. Increasing numbers of analysts are uneasy over the future, however. This paper discusses market downturn from the perspective of the individual investor and explores options that can preserve growth and minimize the risk of loss of principal. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
