Chechnya is a region in southern Russia that, like many other regions in Russia, is home to a non-Caucasian ethnic group. As in many other ethnic struggles, the Chechens want freedom from Russia. The main reason the Russian government is reluctant to give up the land in Chechnya is because of a very valuable natural resource that is located in the region. That resource is oil, which is rapidly becoming one of the world's most valuable substances, due to the fear that the world could run out of it in the near future. There are numerous pipelines that run through Chechnya and if the Chechens were granted autonomy Russia fears that it would lose the control over those pipelines. In fact Chechens have already started refining the oil and selling it on the street. Russia occupied Chechnya under the guise of fighting terrorism and human rights violations. The war is even losing the support of native Russians, who are beginning to notice the various cruel tactics performed by the…

Although ADP (Automatic Data Processing) is one of the leading providers of business outsourcing solutions, it has weaknesses that negatively affect the company. One significant aspect of ADP is that the company has clients in many foreign countries, but less than only 20% of ADP’s revenues come from other regions of the world. The company has been majorly focusing on customers’ needs here in the US, keeping their clients up to date with the current laws and regulations (their HR department) and making payroll processing convenient. What they lack, though, is a diversified geographic. It’s important to concentrate on the US operations, but other countries have specific issues that may need to be handled differently. If ADP wants to expand and take full advantage of their services, they ought to pay more attention to their geographic diversification.…
