From the Paper
"Today, there is a growing Asian community in Vancouver, and the trend is expected to continue in the future (Hiebert, 1999). While the history of Indo-Canadian settlement in Vancouver can be traced to the late 19th century, the community remained relatively small until the 1960s (Hiebert & Walton-Roberts, 1997). In fact, South Asian immigrants have a long history of settlement in Canada; however, the majority of this community arrived after the criteria for entering Canada were relaxed during the 1960s; in addition, the arrival of significant numbers of Vietnamese immigrants is even more recent, beginning in the mid-1970s (Hiebert, 1999).

Abstract
This paper explains that, although statistically the Korean War took more lives than the Vietnam War, the Korean War has been branded as America's "Forgotten War" because it was over-shined by two "greater" wars, the Second World War and the Vietnam War, which dragged on for more than a decade. The author points out that the Korean War is important because it (1) started the end of the communist expansion in the world, (2) laid the ground for the entry of democracy in the states in Eastern Europe and Russia and (3) began the American foreign policy of military intervention to gain or maintain security, freedom and democracy in the world resulting in a number of military conflicts which continues today. The paper describes in detail the Korean War Veterans' Memorial, adjacent to the Lincoln Memorial directly across the reflecting pool from the Vietnam Veterans' Memorial in Washington, D.C., which was dedicated in 1995 by Bill Clinton and Kim Young Sam, then presidents of the U.S. and South Korea.
From the Paper
"The symbolisms in the memorial are brilliant pictures of a war that will never be forgotten. For as long as the memorial continues to exist, the memories of a war, which advanced freedom at the cost of the lives of millions of people, will eternally be thought of and etched in the minds of guests. Moreover, this memorial also serves as a reminder that freedom, though sweet and liberating, must never be taken for granted and must certainly be forever guarded, secured and remain dear in our hearts. It must also be remembered that there are still countries in the world that do not enjoy the rights given by a true democracy. The pursuit for the expansion of democracy must certainly not be abandoned. Still, millions of people are yearning for a free, equal state where social, economic and political justice stands and endures."

Abstract
This paper presents a comparison of Korean shamanism rituals and the Korean royal ancestral rite, Jongmyo Jerye. The paper explains that the main differences between the two have to do with the (1) spirits the ritual is addressing and (2) the actual purpose for performing the ritual.
From the Paper
"Korean shamanistic rituals revolve around the central figure of the ritual, namely the shaman. A shaman, focal point of our discussion, can be defined as "a person who mediates the relation between the natural world and an animated supernatural world (spirits) for the purpose of gaining some control over or knowledge of natural events" . The presence of a person that connected the mortals and their world to supernatural spirits can be seen present in almost all ancient civilizations. Whether called a priest, a shaman or an oracle, the functions they performed were somewhat similar and were requested by the necessity of the primitive peoples to feel protected and in a relationship with the supernatural."

Abstract
The financial rewards and the personal satisfaction associated with having one's own business can be considerable. When the business is one with a high level of social interaction, such as a restaurant, there are personal rewards that move beyond the financial satisfaction that may result. The paper explains that a successful restaurant becomes a part of the community that it serves and can become a focal point of that community. This makes the restaurant business very different from other types of businesses and adds to the personal satisfaction that the owner receives. The paper shows, however, that restaurants also have traditionally low operating margins and are one of the riskier businesses that can be developed. This research examines the issues associated with running a seasonal restaurant in Ocean City, Maryland and the important considerations that such restaurateurs needs to take into account.
From the Paper
"Over the years, there have been two trends among restaurants in the area which indicate that the region's appeal as a resort might be shifting. The first of these trends is toward remaining open year-round. Numerous restaurants (including those that specialize in the highly seasonal fish market) remain open throughout the year. Even those that close for some period of time are likely to close from January through March, or November through March, where they would remain closed for eight months 20 and 30 years ago. This shift indicates that the area is becoming more popular as a year-round destination, at least for diners, and that the local region is able to provide enough customers to support the businesses year-round."

From the Paper
"Since pasta is a relatively inexpensive food in today?s society, the majority of food expenses would lie in the associated meats, dairy products, and fresh vegetables that would be required for food preparation. However, successful negotiation with regional suppliers would result in affordable prices for these food items. Additional fixed costs would include the costs of labor, and it is estimated that a combination of approximately 25-30 full time and part time employees per store would be sufficient for startup until success is established."

"Of all aspects of the restaurant industry, the most product-competitive area is that of Quick Service Restaurants (QSR) and in the context of the marketing mix this specific segment of the market is analyzed here. Product strategies in this market are driven primarily by the increasingly hectic lifestyles of westernized nations and the fragmented approaches families are taking to eating dinner with one another. Given the hectic schedules of so many families, their time is their most precious commodity with the majority not planning more than two hours ahead for dinner (Domino's Pizza 2005). A countervailing trend has been the focus on health and dieting, and according to Roper (2005) and (2006) the battle between diet and convenience. "

Abstract
The history of restaurant business reveals that policy making for customer service has been a painless effort, but attaining employee acceptance to the same for making it operational is the more challenging area. This impracticability of customer services? policies in restaurant management has led most strategies to failure from their initiation. This paper primarily describes the concept of customer service in restaurant management. Thereafter, it shows how the improvement of customer services in restaurant management depends upon the management?s and the employee?s approach towards each other, the establishment and the services. It also provides research findings on the subject and recommendations that can help improve customer service in restaurant management.
From the Paper
"The Industrial Era?s school of thought was established on the notion that employees were not at all bothered to provide quality service since they abhorred working. They were given directives like any automated machine is directed a set of instructions. With the exception of employee collapses that included wounds or ailment, tasks were reluctantly accomplished.
In most cases, restaurant managements decline to the ideology of the US Industrial Era wherein employees were regarded as a constituent of manufacture process, no different than any mechanized paraphernalia. Intentionally or unintentionally, they disregard the fact that implementation of all programs, policies and strategies though ultimately affect customer satisfaction, but revolve around the internal public of the restaurant organization."

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and analyze the television show, "The Restaurant." "The Restaurant" is a reality television show centered on a new restaurant in New York City and the mostly white staff who work there. Specifically, it explores the TV show and uncovers any cultural biases that exist in the show. It also explains how these biases influence society's biases and/or are influenced by society.
From the Paper
"Harry F. Waters wrote about one TV reviewer, "He has turned his lens on TV's hidden victims ? women, the elderly, blacks, blue-collar workers and other groups ? to document the ways in which video-entertainment portrayals subliminally condition how we perceive ourselves and how we view those around us" (Waters 119). This is quite interesting, because it really relates to the staff of The Restaurant, and points out some of the show's prejudices and cultural biases. At first glance, the staff seemed to be pretty well balanced. There were black people working as wait staff, and there were women working right alongside men in the kitchen, in fact, Rocco's mother, called "Mama" by everyone, was the executive chef, so even senior citizens were involved."

"When one decides to invest in setting up a business, some people choose to create a restaurant. However, even from the beginning, if they do not have a clear view of what they really want, and just decide to create it and see how it is going, one might realize that it is a highly risky decision. For once, you do not know what profile your restaurant works better for a certain location. So, what should you do? How should you choose? Should one pick the location and then decide on the profile? Or maybe it should be the other way around?"

From the Paper
"Prior to actual commencement of this new project, the network needs to ensure that all the objectives behind the intricate task of setting up a restaurant are adequately investigated. The project is a combination of a television show and a real life restaurant setup. For the purpose of this report, only the needs of setting up the restaurant have been investigated and analyzed. It is assumed that the network will provide only the necessary support and will not impact the head chef and planners? decision-making."

My Vancouver, 2008.
This paper argues that the author's city, Vancouver, could become the best city in the world instead of its current number three position.
1,640 words (approx. 6.6 pages), 6 sources, MLA, £ 36.95
»

Abstract
This paper exclaims that the author personally finds it hard to believe that Vancouver is not the best city of all because it offers a peaceful life, breathtaking scenery with a wealth of outdoor activities, beautiful beaches and snow-capped mountains, diverse multicultural neighborhoods, restaurants and shopping areas, world-class entertainment and first world quality services. The author points out that, by early spring, having survived the admittedly wet and rainy winter, Vancouverites are found on sidewalks all over the city, sipping their lattes in the cheerful spring sun and displaying their winter-pallid arms with impunity. The paper stresses that, if the city planner's could just get details like sanitation up to scratch, it might even make it to number one, and, in the meantime, it's full steam ahead to the Olympics in Vancouver in 2010. The paper includes many color pictures.
From the Paper
"And Vancouver's not just a laid back place where you can drink the best coffee in the world and get away with murder (well, driving under the influence and grand theft, anyway). The second thing you'll notice - probably while you're sipping your delicious and moderately priced latte - is that it has scenery to die for. The city is ringed by beautiful snow-capped mountains, as well as gorgeous beaches. Sparkling (albeit icy) water flows up from the Strait of Georgia into the Burrard Inlet, ensuring that there is beach front right in the heart of the city."

Abstract
This paper relates that the creation of a steak house restaurant in the area of Charlotte, North Carolina, appears to be a good business initiative. Charlotte is an extremely well-developed region from an economic point of view and the local authorities support the development of businesses in the area because they believe everyone will benefit from increased profits. Although there are many restaurants including other steak houses, the author believes that the proposed restaurant is different because it will be a casual- elegant restaurant where people can enjoy high quality meals and an exquisite atmosphere. The paper includes a SWOT analysis and a marketing plan.

"The restaurant will use printed advertising and radio advertising at local level. Articles and advertorials should appear in the local papers and magazines on a periodical basis. PR strategies will also be used in order to make the restaurant more popular among the people living in Charlotte and the tourists coming here. The restaurant could get involved in the life of the community by making small financial contributions to charitable vents or organize them. In addition, it could mark events which are special for the community by organizing special nights dedicated to them."

Vancouver and Tourism, 2007.
This paper explores the successful tourism industry in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Abstract
The paper discusses how the city of Vancouver, in British Columbia, is a vibrant commercial and cultural center and it offers all the attractions of a major metropolitan area. The paper portrays how nearby Vancouver Island is a place of stunning natural beauty, with an appeal to the eco-traveler and outdoor enthusiast. The paper explains how the growth of tourism went hand in hand with the development of an increasingly urban society. Places like Vancouver Island offered a tourist a wild and rugged atmosphere that was fast disappearing in the vicinities of major Eastern cities.
From the Paper
"Tourism is a major industry in almost all parts of the globe. Many developing nations exact the lion's share of their income from foreign guests, while in developed countries, like Canada, tourism can be an equally lucrative source of revenue. In a post-industrial nation, tourism adds to the economic mix, diversifying array of service sector jobs. The Island of Vancouver, in British Columbia, is already a high growth area that attracts large numbers of new residents each year, and is a magnet for business investment and development. Tourists, too, find the region immensely appealing."
