Since everyone is in Austin for APEC, I would like to hold a meeting. How do I arrange for a meeting room and audio/visual equipment and food service?

APEC only provides meeting space for functions that are directly affiliation with one its sponsoring organizations: Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA), IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) or the IEEE Industry Applications Society (IAS). Requests for meeting space from any other organization will be denied. If your function is directly related to one of the sponsoring organizations, send your request to your Society's administrator or the PSMA executive offices.

Include in your request the number of people expected, the duration of the meeting, the preferred time of the meeting, any audio/visual/phone service/data communications service/easel/projectors equipment that will be needed, any food service that will be needed and any other special requests. Each sponsor's administrator will combine the requests and serve as a single point of contact between the each of the sponsors and the APEC Conference Managers. The APEC Conference Managers will schedule the meetings and ... more.

See the APEC Auxiliary Meetings Information Web page for details on arranging a meeting at APEC 2006. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
