From the Paper
"Years ago, when the internet first emerged in its current form, the thought that one day we would be buying anything, let alone household products, using a computer was laughable. So why did things change? Or did they change at all? Do we now buy more things over the Internet than anyone could ever imagine? Or is it all just still, well quite frankly, a bit of a grey area? "

From the Paper
"Doll collecting is a relatively new industry and has gained increasing popularity in recent years (Van Patten, 2004b). For just over 100 years now, collectors have been collecting antique and vintage dolls and dolls that were originally intended for children. According to Van Patten (2004a), 2004 was a difficult year for doll collecting. "Several high-profile doll companies, including Gotz and My Twinn, went out of business, or, like the Franklin Mint, stopped making dolls. Several high-profile retail establishments which heavily sell dolls, including FAO Schwarz and KB Toys, went bankrupt" (Van Patten, 2004, p. 1). A number of smaller doll stores continued to struggle to stay in business, faced by the double threat of eBay and a lackluster economy."

Abstract
This paper relates the life, success, struggles and downfalls of Jesus Christ and Christianity to the birth, growth and struggles of internet retailing and how internet retailing has developed into the dynamic and popular means of modern day retailing.
From the Paper
"With roots tracing back as early as 1995, Internet Retailing has endured a Christ like life cycle over the last eleven years. Reflecting upon biblical texts describing the life of Jesus as well as reflecting upon the recent history of the American stock market, one can easily deduce the similarities in their lifelines. Jesus was born into a life entwined with much criticism. Although he was renowned for his good works, the rise of his stature invoked incessant criticisms. The negative labels placed upon Jesus, by his popular and powerful critics, gradually dismembered his faithful fold, ultimately leading to his death in 30 C.E. Ironically, it was his death that brought his resurrection and the world-wide recognition of his significance, and the significance of his message. Similar to the aforementioned life cycle of Jesus Christ, Internet Retailing emerged under a predominantly harsh critical scope that scrutinized its notably quick economic gains. With record setting gains and notoriety within the business world, web retailing took a violent turn for the worse in 2000. A powerful group of investors made a public outcry expressing their lack of faith in the businesses sustenance which ultimately produced a widely felt economic scare. The scare quickly led to the crash/death of the "Dot Com" industries in late 2000 and early 2001. Yet, because of this crash, the companies were enabled to better understand market trends, and since 2001, Internet Retailers are better equipped to provide a higher level of service to consumers and have the financial resources to handle the volatility of an economic downturn. This resurgence of web retailing has captivated today's business world and is now revered as America's economic messiah which will save our economy from its present war stricken market. By briefly contrasting the main idea of this critical analysis with a retrospective theological analysis of Christianity, this scholar has outlined the form in which this essay will be unfolded. By initially describing the essence of internet retailing, the reader's will be most aptly informed on the matter and therefore capable in understanding the impact web retailing has had on the U.S. economy over the last eleven years of its life-cycle, as well as where it is projected to take the international market in the latter years of its life-cycle."

"INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Retail Internet Sites Industry
Warning
This is a topic in desperate need of clarification. For example, if one takes the term "Retail Internet Sites" to be the subject of the industry, the analysis would go askew for the very simple fact that a "Retail Internet Site" is nothing more than a "domain name," -- http://www.mystore.com -- which is referred to as a "retail site." If that is the topic, then the industry analysis would be slender, since there is only one company, InterNIC.net that has the franchise in the United States to register domain names.
If the topic is construed to be a consideration of retail sites on the Internet, then the opposite is true. Instead of a slender industry ..."

"Introduction
The information superhighway has received much media attention, but it remains a mystery to most Americans who lack a personal computer and a modem. Government and business have been the primary users of the information available through on-line services and the Internet, but businesses have begun to develop an interest in joining the ranks of those who are connected to these resources, in part because they offer an attractive alternative to faxes and long distance phone calls, and in part because they bring a wealth of information from around the world to employees in a single location. In recent months, a growing number of businesses have become active on the World Wide Web (WWW) and the Internet offering their goods and services to consumers directly on-line. Customers can pay with a credit card or through some other .."

He received his initial schooling mainly in Latin literature, and he earned his living as a teacher in Carthage, Rome, and Milan.

After a period of skepticism, he was converted to Christianity by St. Ambrose and established a monastic community. In 391, he was ordained a priest at Hippo, becoming bishop there in 395.
Augustine believed in the importance of a single, unified Christian Church. He developed a theory of sin, grace, and ... "

The paper describes the current market situation, elaborating on the issues the company wishes to improve. The paper identifies the company's financial and marketing goals for the future.
From the Paper
"The popularity of Beanie Babies pushed the collectible market to more than $10 billion in 1998 and 1999. In 1999, the prominence of Internet auctions, particularly eBay, had a serious negative effect on many specialty retailers. By using eBay as a marketing and sales channel, in addition to our regular web site, Little Lover's House will capitalize upon the popularity of eBay as a destination for collectible doll enthusiasts. The effect of the economic downturn of the past few years (and the impact of eBay on doll collecting) has largely stabilized. Some of the larger doll manufacturers declared bankruptcy as a result of slower sales. "Several high-profile doll companies, including Gotz and My Twinn, went out of business, or, like the Franklin Mint, stopped making dolls." (Van Patten, 2004). The market has largely come to terms with the new business environment and sales of collectible dolls are on the increase. "All of this bodes well for re-energizing the world of doll collecting in 2004...[in] 2004 the industry has, finally, settled into the changes wrought by eBay." (Van Patten, 2004)."

From the Paper
"The impact of technology on the retail industry has opened a new cyber-world of opportunity. Each new step into a technologically equipped retail environment is a step out of the inefficient, and labor intensive manually managed marketplace which is only as effective as the manager?s memory. In the past 3 decades, beginning with the invention of the barcode as a tool to manage inventory levels, retailers have been able to become more familiar with their product?s movement through the use of technology, and computer based innovations."

St. Thomas Aquinas & St Augustine, 2006.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how the Hebrew Scriptures were produced from the traditions of the ancient Israeli people, and that these scriptures fused moral, along with political injunctions as to how the state should create a just as well as a holy society, and defined the responsibilities of the leaders in relation to the people, as well as defined the citizen's relationship to the state. The paper goes on to say that Christianity, which is derived from Judaism, was spawned during a different political and historical point in Israeli history. The paper reviews how both the theologians St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, when examining the responsibilities of the state, the ruler and the ruled in the Christian world, would also offer two different portraits of this judicial relationship, in attempting to reconcile scriptural prescriptions about correct behavior.
From the Paper
"However, in the Gospel According to St. Matthew, Jesus says: "Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's" (Matthew 22:21) In other words, the purpose of religion is not to concern itself with the worldly affairs of the here and now, but the world to come. Jesus frequently implies that there is a dichotomy between the morals and values of the ruling state and the true values of a very different world above. The second beatitude of the "Sermon on the Mount" is one of Jesus' most famous: "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." (Matthew 5:4) The meek that do not rule on earth will rule later on, and the rules that govern the world will be forever altered after the Day of Judgment. St. Paul reinforces this flesh and spirit divide in his Epistle to the Galatians: "For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." (Galatians 5:14) In other words, the true law of the land is spiritual, not the formally codified laws pertaining to ruling a state found in the Hebrew Bible. This is why Paul preaches against Christians observing the rules that Jews were bound by, such as circumcision. Christ had supplanted such old, physical laws. The laws of the world were of less concern than the inner laws of one's spiritual life."

Abstract
This paper is a historical song review that compares the lyrics of Joan Osborne song, "St. Teresa", to the actual events in the life of St. Teresa, the 16th century Spanish nun. The author looks at the lyrics, the historical context, the artist, and the works of the saint herself.
From the Paper
"The song St. Teresa by Joan Osborne on her 1995 album, Relish, is rather vague at a glance. The song begins in a street corner describing a woman and her child and moves into a mystical theme involving Saint Teresa. Osborne sings begins in first person, but shifts between what seems to be several characters in the song. St. Teresa, according to the songwriter herself, is actually about the women she saw from her window selling drugs on the corner through the night, their young children in tow. This scene was marked by a striking contrast between the innocence and purity of the children and the little crime, Osborne 17. Osborne?s vision of the absolute beauty and devastating abomination of mankind was liken to that of the saints? visions from God, especially that of Saint Teresa of Avila . Osborne takes on the voice of the saint, the sinner, and the omnipotent observer in the lyrics of St. Teresa."
